By Natalie GeNtryA small unassuming bridge on Sarra
Lane, located a quarter mile west of Old Agnes Road in Springtown has taken on the tragic moniker of “grave site.”
It is in a space under the bridge that 18-month-old Tylea Moore was bur-ied after she was killed by her moth-er’s boyfriend.
Local residents have quietly been tying ribbons and stuffed animals on the bridge in memory of the toddler.
According to the Arlington Jail inmate list, Joshua Beard, 20, of Ar-lington has been charged with capital murder in connection with the death.
He was already in the Arlington jail
for unrelated traffic charges.The child’s mother Alexis Botello,
17, has been charged with felony tam-pering with, or fabricating physical evidence (human corpse) and injury to a child.
According to the search warrant af-fidavit, Botello, 17, told police that af-ter Beard beat the toddler to death he put her body in the trunk of Botello’s car in order to dispose of it.
The couple, both graduates of Weatherford High School, then drove to Walmart in Weatherford and bought shovels and gloves.
They were looking for a bridge in a remote area when they found the
By Natalie GeNtryA 13-year-old Springtown boy has
spent the last few days at Cook Chil-dren’s Hospital in Fort Worth recover-ing from a gunshot wound he received July 1.
Carl Davis was at his friend’s home near Briar in Wise County at County Road 4764 Tues-day afternoon when he and his friends spotted a snake.
Tammy Davis, Carl’s mother, said the snake had bitten a friend’s dog, so Carl and one of his friends went inside to retrieve a gun to shoot the reptile.
According to Wise County investi-gators, the .22 rifle discharged as the
boys removed it from a gun cabinet.The bullet hit Carl in the abdomen.The teen was airlifted to Cook Chil-
dren’s Hospital where doctors had to repair wounds to his colon.
“He had two punctures in his small intestines and two in his large in-testines,” Tammy Davis said. “The doctor said if the bullet had hit even a millimeter to the right, it would have hit a major artery and he’d be dead.
“One of the first things Carl said af-ter the surgery is he didn’t want us to file charges. He is worried about his friend who has been really upset. He
By mark k. campBellGary Shaw, Springtown ISD’s chief
financial officer (CFO), knows he has a big responsibility.
He’s the person who directs the school district’s funds; for the upcom-ing 2014-15 year, that will mean prop-erly taking care of $25.5 million.
Shaw detailed to the Springtown Optimist Club July 8 just how the av-erage dollar is spent annually.
By far the biggest chunk of each dollar – 57.5 cents – goes to “Instruc-tion.” That means salaries and benefits
for teachers and aides.Another 1.5 cents goes toward train-
ing and curriculum, so that’s 59 cents out of every dollar quickly accounted for.
The next greatest expenditure, at 9.4 cents, is maintenance services. Shaw said that could be everything from replacing air-conditioners to parts ap-proval.
“There are hundreds of air-con-ditioner units on district buildings,” Shaw said.
Getting children to school takes up
the next biggest chunk of the budget at 6.5 cents.
“We give kids rides if it’s too far or there are unsafe conditions,” he said. Keeping the buses running is a sub-stantial expense, Shaw noted.
“Campus leadership” – adminis-trative supervisors handling day-to-day “operational details” – tallies 5.2 cents.
Shaw said the 4.8 cent “Utilities” bud-get has been lowered in recent years.

site in the 1900 block of Sarra Lane.
There, according to the af-fidavit, they dug the grave and buried the child.
Botello later led investiga-tors to the site, according to Lt.
Christopher Cook, an Arling-ton police public information officer.
“We do believe we have enough evidence to charge Mr. Beard, who is in our jail,” Cook said.
Both Beard and Botello re-mained in the Arlington Jail
July 9.Beard’s bond is set at
$1,000,000 bond for the capital murder charge, and Botello’s is set at $125,000.
And heartbroken area resi-dents continue to remember Tylea on that lonely Sarra Lane bridge.

By Natalie GeNtryCultivating a garden in the
typical Texas summer can be a challenge, even for the most stalwart of gardeners.
The intense heat, poor soil, and drought-like conditions require dedication to get plants to grow.
Melvin Maly wouldn’t let any of these obstacles stop him or his garden.
Maly moved to Springtown from Kansas City 10 years ago.
In that time, he has continu-ously worked to enhance and increase the productivity of his garden.
“It’s taken me 10 years to get to this point,” Maly said. “This
year has been a great year.”Surrounded by a 5-foot fence
to keep critters out, the garden is a riot of green amidst the sun bleached pastures.
Zucchini, butternut squash, and tomatoes peek from be-neath the foliage waiting to be picked.
The recent rains may have helped push some of the veg-etable over the top – his Ar-menian cucumbers, for exam-ple – but Maly emphasizes the key to his garden is the soil.
“I go out to where I feed the cattle and bring in the ma-nure,” he said.
Using it has helped fortify
the soil with nutrients that it normally lacks.
Another key element to his success is his irrigation.
“I use a few soaker hoses around the beds and they do a good job watering every-thing,” he said. “It really doesn’t take much.”
The vegetables from Maly’s garden are either canned for munching on the rest of the year or shared with others.
“It’s been such a great crop this year,” Maly said. “I’ve taken vegetables to my chiro-practor’s office, the ladies at the bank, and the pharmacy.”
He also took buckets of cu-
cumbers to Neigh-bor to Neighbors Food Bank, but they weren’t open.
However, as he sat in the parking lot people showed up and he was able to give them some.
“I felt like it was something I should to do,” Maly said. “I love to see the plants go from the garden to the can or to someone else.”
At the end of the day Maly just enjoys the outdoors and spending time in his garden.
“It’s fun,” he said.

No one was injured, but a lot of folks noticed a gray 1998 Dodge Durango in the creekbed between El Paseo Mexican Restaurant and Arby’s Thursday morning, July 3, after a minor accident on North Stewart Street. According to the accident report, Terry E. Wilson, 51, of Springtown, was driving the Dodge when he looked away from the roadway and drifted into the oncoming lane, clipping the rear of a red 2014 Jeep SUV driven by Troy D. Adams of Azle. The result was a trip into the creekbed for Wilson. Photo by Terry Thomas

“We replaced the lighting in gyms with lights that are 75 percent more efficient,” the CFO said, adding that LED lights are used now when cur-rent lighting fails.
He added, “We used to spend over $1 million on utilities; now it’s much less.”
Other costs:District-Wide – 4.8 cents.
Shaw said this covers state and federal law compliances.
Extracurricular – 3.2 cents. Successful ISD programs and students outside of school hours mean additional expenses.
Counseling – 2.5 cents. Stu-dents receive information on preparing for college and SAT testing among others.
Library – 1.7 cents. The ISD strives to stay current to offer students up-to-date materials.
Date-Processing – 1.5 cents. This covers the required report-ing caused by state and federal mandates.
Nurse – 1.0 cent. Shaw said most people are
surprised to hear that the least
expensive expenditure for the district is food service. It is just 0.4 cents out of every dollar de-spite the feeding of hundreds of children daily.
That’s because of local help – like the Methodist Church’s snack pack program and Brook-shire’s, he said – as well as sub-stantial governmental funds that cover most of the expense.
Shaw said the kids who eat on the free or reduced meal programs – 60 percent of them – are from the ISD’s three el-ementary schools.
Things change by the time students reach high school. “There’s a stigma attached,” he admitted.
Shaw said new federal nu-tritional guidelines are another reason why some children don’t eat at school; they simply don’t want the kind of meal that is required. “Most of the food goes in the trash,” he said.
The SISD budget covers 481 employees with its $25.5 million budget. Of those funds, Shaw said the state contributes “15 to 16 million” while local taxes fund the remainder, 9.5 million.

13-year-old boy in good spiritshas called up several times to check on us,” said Davis, who has stayed at the hospital the entire time.
“Carl wants people to know our family is getting a lot of prayers, but the little boy’s family needs prayers, too,” Da-vis said.
Carl is in good spirits now; he was able to visit with friends on July 7, he ate solid food for
the first time on July 8 and the doctors say he may be able to go home on July 9.
“It will be nice to get home,” his mother said with a small laugh. “But Carl told me he didn’t want to leave yet because they wait on him hand-and-foot here.”
As it stands, Carl has six to eight weeks of recovery to look forward to, which may prevent him from playing football this fall.
“We’ll just have to wait and see how he is doing then,” Da-vis said.

Owner Angela Howard-Leatherwood says Nickabby’s Collectibles & Hobby Shop is a “dream now come true.”
The store – four miles west of Springtown High School just before Rhodes Lane and across from the Seventh Day Adventist Church – offers a bevy of speciality items: refinished/shabby chic furniture like Orchid Cowgirl Furniture; paintings from a local artist; monogramming and craft items; household decor; steampunk decor; vintage and antique jewelry; and trash-to-treasure items from a variety of vendors.
Then there’s the hobby shop that will open in the fall that contains gas-powered, radio-controlled cars, planes, and helicopters as well as parts and fuel.
Vendors looking to become part of Nickabby’s are welcome. (It’s pronounced “Nicabees” and named after her children.) Spaces are for lease with no percentage taken from sales, just a monthly booth fee and a one-time non-refundable deposit.
Owner Angela said, “We offer competitive pricing and a friendly atmosphere.” She added that she allows vendors to decorate or revamp their space to accommodate artists’ unique wares.
“My goal is to show this community and my guests that I am here for them. I’ll search high and low for the items they may be on the hunt for AND help them add new items to their collections,” Angela said.
She and her “awesome” vendors
conducted a Vendor Show and School Supply Drive that was a great success, Angela said.
Every second and fourth Saturday is Vendors Trade Days where anyone can set up a booth outside Nickabby’s for $20. Existing vendors enjoy free booths outside on those Saturdays.
Food vendors are welcome, too, for a $25 fee. Since only one restaurant is nearby, Angela says food vendors are especially encouraged.
The fourth Saturday is also Car Show Day where all makes and models of vehicles – including motorcycles – can show for $35; current Nickabby’s vendors are, again, free.
All the Saturday vendor/food/vehicle fees go to a chosen charity of the month.
Angela says Nickabby’s came about through her love of “junking.” Her dream of opening her shop was delayed for years by Pseudo-Tumor Cerebra and a degenerative disc disease.
After a November 2012 fire destroyed all their belongings, Angela was encouraged when so many “angels” came forward with furniture and clothes to help her family.
“Because of this event, I knew it was time for me to do what I could to give back to others, to do what I said in the beginning – my goal. Nickabby’s is exactly that. Paying it forward is what I’m here to do for as long as I am here,” she said.

(SISD) has secured Black Creek K-9 Services to provide canine detection teams on the campuses throughout the district.
“We haven’t had drug dogs on our campuses in several years,” SISD Superintendent Mike Kelley said.
The service used to be partially funded by federal grants, but since that time canine teams have been absent from the schools.
According to Black Creek’s website, the use of canine detection teams has significantly in-creased in schools over the last 15 years.
All of the canine teams are certified by the
United States Police Canine Association; the most stringent and well-respected national orga-nization in the country.
In addition, they only employ handlers who have military working dog or police service dog experience.
“We’re going to ask them to come out in the fall and spring,” Kelley said. “They will visit the campuses 10 times throughout the year; with two additional visits available if we find a need.”
The main objective of employing the canine teams is to discourage students, staff, and visi-tors from bringing illicit substances to school.
“I think we need to bring this service back to the district,” Kelley said.

Krause on honor roll
by carla noah StutSManAfter logging enough years on this earth to have several great-
grandchildren, a beloved Azle woman has released her first book.Love & Laughter – Poems, Analogies & Other Things Volume
1 by Ola Fay Denman Heflin – known by most simply as “Olie” – was released a few weeks ago and is now available for purchase.
Heflin says the entire production of the book was the work of God Himself, and that she is the instrument He chose to use.
“It’s been a memorable experience,” Heflin said.Heflin says that for many years, she has enjoyed writing in
rhyme – something her older sister, Helen Denman Beauchamp did that Heflin admired.
“Any time there was a special occasion – a birthday, a graduation, or a special award – I would write my message in poetry,” Heflin said.
Her late husband, Harry Heflin, bought Olie her first computer in 1984, and she began collecting poems she’d written in a file on that computer she called “POEMS, analogies and other things.”
To prevent the poems from getting lost in a cyber-sea of com-puter documents, she titled each one with the word “Poem” at the beginning of the file name.
Heflin shared that her son, Leck, once asked her if she could write anything that was NOT poetry.
But a few years later, when a craniotomy left his mother very ill in the hospital, Leck wondered if she would ever write poetry again.
She did, and continues to do so today.Helen wasn’t the only sister who inspired Olie. Her sister Doro-
thy encouraged her to include her maiden name of Denman at the end of her poems; sister Janie, Heflin says, was the quietest of the four Denman sisters, and her kindness and quiet demeanor inspired her to be more ladylike, she says.
“Many times I would wake in the night thinking in poetic sen-tences and I would think, ‘I better get up and write this down because if I don’t I could fail to remember this in the morning,’” Heflin said. “One of the poems in this first book is named ‘Mid-night Rambler’ and it was written about me.”
Late in 2011, Heflin’s grandson, David Heflin, suggested: “Granny, we need to get your poems in a book.” It was something she’d wanted to do for a long time, but David had the education and knowledge to make it happen.
They got off to a slow start, but eventually, Heflin told her grandson she would begin picking out her best poems for the book.
“Granny, don’t do that,” he replied. “The poems you leave out might be the very poems someone needs.”
Other family members helped in the process.
A niece, Laurie Springer, is a Latin teacher at Trinity Acad-emy in Addison and an accom-plished grammarian. Springer checked grammar and punctua-tion on Heflin’s poems before they were sent to David.
Great-nieces Molly Gooch and Caitlin Beauchamp assisted with editing, and son Leck and daughter Becky helped in vari-ous ways throughout the pro-cess, Heflin says.
David chose an image of a bluebird – long a favorite of his grandmother’s – for the book’s cover with no counseling from her. Then he asked for some of her handwritten notes, and used Heflin’s own handwriting for the background image.
During the slow process of pulling elements for the book to-gether, Heflin began attending The Abbey Church.
“Each Sunday, Pastor Paul Brownback prayed for blessings on his flock, and he specifically asked for increase, for surprise fi-nancial rewards, provision enough for payment of debts, and for books to be published,” Heflin said.
About the third week she heard him pray for these things, both Heflin and her daughter-in-law, Cynthia, were struck by the same realization – that Brownback’s prayers were for the book Heflin and her family mem-bers had been slowly working toward publishing.
“Sure enough, things started falling in place and within a week or two the book was sent to the publisher,” Heflin said.
Through it all, Heflin is sure of one thing.“I was led by God. I would ask for his leadership and his correc-
tion, and He gave it freely by leading me in various ways,” she said. “I felt a closeness with God while writing most of my poems. I was raised by parents who had a strong relationship with God and as children we were surrounded by people who loved God and loved us – people who we loved.”
Poems on topics ranging from family to treasure, guidance to ag-ing, lessons learned and prayer are included in Heflin’s first book.
If you’d like a copy, they are available for purchase for $15 each at The Azle News office, 321 W. Main Street in Azle.
We’ll keep you posted as plans for Heflin’s next book are announced.

We lived with brother George through the win-ter, living mostly on what game we caught. It was a
cold, tedious winter with deep snow. Game was plenty such as deer and moose.
“On June 1, 1622, husband started south-west for a warmer climate, with a pocket compass and an Indian guide. Brother George went a two days' jour-ney with us, and then returned home. I carried my son George in my arms and on my back through a dense for-est settled only with wild beasts and Indians, but we met with few of the former and none of the latter. After being forty-eight days on our journey, July 18, husband concluded to stop and build a log cabin and to settle for life. In four days, husband, the Indian and myself, finished our log cabin, covering it with poles and peeled bark. My journey through the forest and the hard labor I had done in helping build our cabin, had its effect on me, I felt nearly worn out.
“I had left my rich parents and my
only brother Robert in England, and had faced the storms and perils of the ocean with my noble companion, and had traveled with him forty eight days through the forest. To my companion I had given my early love and pledged my hand for life. He was ever kind to me. We both belonged to the society of Friends.
“Before leaving England, father gave me 100 pounds in gold coin, my brother gave me two doubloons in gold. This gold coin I sewed into the wadding of my petticoat. Mother gave me her gold diamond ring which cost œ16. She took her gold watch from her pocket and gave it to me. It cost 25 pounds. She also gave me her gold locket and the gold chain that she wore with her watch, and bade me keep them to remember her by. The locket cost 10 pounds, and I lost it in my journey through the wil-derness in coming here, but it was found by an Indian hunter in 1625, and returned to me. I had many happy days
hunting deer with husband, as there was plenty of them in the forest, but I often thought of home and the dear ones there.
“Mr. William Codle joined us in 1628, with his wife, son and daughter from England. They belonged to the
society of Friends.“In 1635, Robert and Ca-
leb Carr, husband's brother Benjamin Carr's two sons, were sent over from Lon-don to live with their uncle William, my husband. We had fine times hunting with the Indians, they were very friendly to us. Our bedding and clothing were nearly all skins and furs like the Indians, but in all these years I was mindful to ed-ucate my son George, al-though we were in a name-less wilderness.
“In 1636 Capt. Roger Williams, who had abandoned the sea, moved from Salem, bringing with him a col-ony of Friends, and settled with us, and set up a school free for all, young and old. The same year he bounded
the state and called it Rhode Island, and named our place Bristol. He also surveyed and laid out towns and gave them names.
“A meeting was held at our cabin and we offered up our humble thanks to God, that we had met on this side of the ocean in a free land, beyond the persecution of Great Britain. How my heart thanked God that our noble cap-tain who brought us safely across the ocean, had come to live with us, and preach and teach us to love God and to keep his commandments.”
William and Susan Carr lived in America and in this one place – Bris-tol, Rhode Island for about seventy years. William Carr died in Bristol, June 4, 1672, and Susan died in the same place, May 3, 1671.
William’s brother George settled in Ipswich, and from there removed with the first settler of Colechester, now Salisbury, Massachusetts. He was granted an island in the Merrimac River for a home and the purposes of a shipyard, and it was called Carr's Is-land.
The action of the town in relation to the grant of the island was as follows:
“At a general meeting of the freemen of the town of Colechester, the 3rd day of the 5th month, 1640, it was ordered yt (that) George Carr shall have the island where he now dwells, as well as the marsh and upland, it being the greatest island within the town limits, in the Merrimack river, to him and to his heirs and assigns forever.” Oct. 7, 1640, it was ordered by the General Court that “Colechester is henceforth to be called Salisbury.”
George died April 4,1682 in Salis-bury, Massachusetts.
The island was the home of the Carrs for a number of generations, and the possession of this island gave the family the monopoly of the ferrying business across the river in ye olden times.
This ferry at George Carr's death was considered to be worth 400 pounds. Two of the family were drowned while attending the ferry. The large house on Carr's Island was destroyed by fire, May 9, 1797.

HISTORICALHIGHLIGHTS
Laurie Moseley
Laurie Moseley is an author, archeologistand historian who lives in Springtown. He is the
director of Springtown’s Legends Museum.
Writing inspiration comes from all kinds of places and circumstanc-es. I never know when something
is going to spark an idea. That’s why I have an ever-growing list of “writing topics” that includes everything from blogs to books. I suspect that the day I catch up with the list will be the day I go to spend eternity with the Author of the greatest love story ever told.
Inspiration this week came at the gas pump. I actually pulled in to fill up when I still had half a tank remaining. As one who has, on more than one occasion, pushed a gas-empty vehicle, I had to laugh at how my life and mind-set have changed. I have spent much of my life in a hurry. Too many responsibilities…too many projects…too little time. I had to squeeze every pos-sible mile out of a tank of gas because I didn’t have time to stop and fill up. Prayer times were rushed because there was ministry to get to. I had to be constantly available because I was needed. I didn’t have time to sharpen my saw, for crying out loud, I was too busy cutting wood!
I couldn’t tell you exactly when the shift began to occur, but I can tell you that there came a time that I figured out that a dull saw doesn’t cut much wood, an empty gas tank won’t take you very far, and a busy person who is physically, emotionally, and spiritu-ally exhausted is really not much good
to anyone.I wish I could say that I have it
mastered. I do not. But, I am filling up more frequently. I’m making bet-ter use of my time. I am learning to say “No” to some good things, so that I can say “Yes” to the best things. And I am realizing that, sometimes, the best thing I can do for someone is to help them see that they are running on fumes, and help them find some posi-tive refueling strategies.
A few weeks ago, in a moment of inspiration, I tweeted, “We must stop wearing busyness as a badge of honor. Seriously. I mean it. It is killing us and it does not honor God. #breathingroom”
Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew
11:28-29) Our lives matter so much to God
that He did not create us to be fume runners. Slow down. Take a few deep breaths. Connect deeply to Jesus. Fill up and get on the road again.

Mark K. Campbell
Solving the latest immigra-tion problem with a playlet:
A GUY is drinking some water, reading.
GUY: Ridiculous! All these foreign kids being
dumped into our country! (GUY turns around to see a long-haired, bearded person wearing a robe and sandals standing beside him.) I mean, can you be-lieve this?! We’re being overrun! They’re going to breed us out of existence! It’s crazy – am I right?
NEWCOMER: No, you’re not.
GUY: (taken aback) Says who?
NEWCOMER: Jesus.GUY: (backing up,
scared) Look, pal, I don’t want any trouble...
NEWCOMER: I am Jesus. Take a drink of that water.
GUY: Hey, it’s wine! It’s a miracle!JESUS: (sighing) I rose from the
dead and all they can talk about is the water to wine miracle.
GUY: Should I be bowing or some-thing? Listen, I’m really sorry about, well, everything, I guess.
JESUS: I’m just stopping by; this isn’t the Big Return – everyone’s go-ing to know when that happens.
GUY: Whew!JESUS: You believe, right?GUY: Absolutely!JESUS: There seems to be a little
confusion about the influx of children coming here from Central American countries.
GUY: I know! Why can’t they stay where they belong, in their own coun-tries? We can’t be the orphanage of
the world! We can’t afford them!
JESUS: (sighing again) They’re just children.
GUY: Yeah, but they have parents! People shouldn’t have children if they can’t take care of them!
JESUS: They are chil-dren, sent forth by desper-ate parents.
GUY: Well, they don’t need to be here in Ameri-ca! We have enough prob-lems of our own! Plus, those kids don’t have the right piece of paper to let
them in! They’re illegal!JESUS: Unbelievable. I thought I
made things pretty clear earlier.GUY: How’s that?JESUS: In the Bible. I believe I cov-
ered this topic quite thoroughly.GUY: How’s that?JESUS: Do to others as you would
have them do to you.GUY: I thought that was Shake-
speare.JESUS: (more sighing) No, that was
me. And so was this from 1 John 3:17 – If any one of you has material pos-sessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in you?
GUY: Well...JESUS: Be kind to one another,
tender-hearted...do not let kindness and truth leave you...do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it....I can go on.
GUY: What about rendering unto Caesar’s what is Caesar’s? Those kids are here illegally! It’ll be chaos! They are not obeying the law!
JESUS: So? Take care of the chil-dren and let today’s Caesars handle the immigration situation.
GUY: But our Caesars are idiots!JESUS: Whose fault is that?GUY: Why can’t the illegal alien
kids just follow the rules?JESUS: THESE ARE CHILDREN!GUY: (hands up) I know, I know.JESUS: What if it was your child in a
foreign country, desperate? Wouldn’t you want someone to help them?
GUY: Well, of course.JESUS: There you go. Children are
special. Whoever despises his neigh-bor is a sinner, but blessed is he who is generous to the poor. Give the chil-dren “the milk of human kindness.”
GUY: What Bible book is that from?JESUS: Actually, that last one’s
Shakespeare. Macbeth. But it’s good advice. By the way, I changed that wine back to water.
GUY: Geez...I said ‘Geez’ – G-E-E-Z...
JESUS: (sighs) Just go take care of the children.
Thursday, July 10, 20148A OPINION
A U.S. House Homeland Se-curity Commit-tee field hearing titled, “Crisis on the Texas Bor-
der: Surge of Unaccompanied Minors,” was conducted in McAllen on July 3.
Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven Mc-Craw was among those who testified. He said unaccompa-nied Central American chil-dren are continuing to make the journey to the United States through Texas in record num-bers; and
• U.S. Border Patrol deten-tion facilities in the Rio Grande Valley and elsewhere are over-whelmed;
• Drug trafficking organiza-tions are gaining power as a direct result of a porous border; and
• State troopers, agents and Texas Rangers are being de-ployed to the Rio Grande Val-ley “to conduct data-driven, multi-agency, ground, air and marine saturation patrols in high threat areas for sustained
periods of time.”Gov. Rick Perry testified,
too. Here are excerpts from what he said: “Last week I witnessed the difficult condi-tions these children are being housed in while they await ac-tion by Washington, whether it’s the right decision to im-mediately deport them or the shortsighted and tragic deci-sion to essentially turn them loose in the United States. Some might think allowing them to stay is a more humane option, I assure you, it is not. Nobody is doing any of these children the slightest favor by delaying a rapid return to their countries of origin, which in many cases is not Mexico.”
U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chair of the House Homeland Security Commit-tee, listed more than a dozen areas of action the federal gov-ernment is taking, one of which was public health screenings “for all those who come into our facilities for any symptoms of contagious diseases or other possible public health con-cerns.”
Cost analysis is re-leased
State Comptrol-ler Susan Combs on June 30 announced the publication of an analysis of new school construction costs.
Combs said the analysis, conducted by her agency, shows practices school dis-tricts can implement to save money, such as “architectural pro-totypes that suit el-ementary, middle or high schools, saving months of construction time and hundreds of thousands of dollars.”
“Schools can be built ef-ficiently and less expensive-ly, but districts don’t always choose to do so,” Combs said. “Our report provides taxpayers and school districts with addi-tional information to consider when making those choices.”
Construction cost figures are inflation adjusted and take into account regional differences in
the price of materi-als and labor, Combs said.
Drought conditions persist
Gov. Perry on July 3 renewed for another month the drought emergency disaster he originally proclaimed on July 5, 2011, certifying exceptional drought conditions pose a threat of imminent disaster in specified counties in Texas. This current procla-
mation extension applies to 118 of the state’s 254 counties.
“Rules and regulations that may inhibit or prevent prompt response to this threat are sus-pended for the duration of the state of disaster,” the proclama-tion states.
Site shows impact of basesComptroller Combs on July
2 publicized a new source of information on the economic impact of military installations
in the state.TheTexasEconomy.org/mili-
tary highlights how the state and local communities support military activities and families and gives examples of ways military activities spur eco-nomic development and inno-vation in Texas.
Texas military installa-tions, which employ more than 255,000 military and defense-related civilian personnel, pro-vide an impact “of nearly $150 billion to the state economy and account for 6 percent of the state's economic activities,” Combs said.
Anti-trafficking force meetsThe Texas Human Traffick-
ing Prevention Task Force, chaired by Attorney General Greg Abbott, met in Austin on July 1.
At the meeting, Abbott pro-moted a new publication titled “Introduction to Human Traf-ficking: A Guide for Texas Edu-cation Professionals.”
He said the publication, available at oag.state.tx.us, would further the task force’s
efforts “to identify, investigate and prosecute human traffick-ers such as: the realities of hu-man trafficking, federal and state laws defining and prohib-iting human trafficking, human trafficking as a form of child abuse, risk factors for school-aged children, indicators of human trafficking, approaches to responding to an outcry, a mechanism to report human trafficking, and proactive ap-proaches for school districts.”
RRC offers BBQ tipsTexas Railroad Commission,
the state’s energy-regulating agency, on the day before the Fourth of July, made an an-nouncement listing safety tips for Texas estimated six million “barbecue households” that own propane gas grills.
Among tips given was: “To turn the cylinder valve off or on, remember: Righty, Tighty … Lefty, Loosey.”

Nationally Honored Photographs
Cheerleading now a sport, says UIL
Camps soon to arrive at SHS
These two photos taken by Mark K. Campbell earned honors recently from the Na-tional Newspaper Association. The July 2013 7-on-7 football picture above, taken in Leander, took second in the NNA’s Best Sports Photo contest; it was judged to be “a great shot at just the right time. Amazing detail and energy caught in action.” The baseball photo below when Springtown hosted Graham in bi-district ran last May 8 and was deemed the best sports shot of the quarter and published in the NNA’s Publishers Auxiliary July edition.
By MArK K. CAMPBeLLAnnually, the University In-
terscholastic League tinkers with its rules and regulations.
Often, those changes are mi-nor but sometimes a major al-teration comes along.
That has occurred twice in 2014.
Back in February, the bienni-al realignment arrived with the revamping of classifications.
Previously, schools were ranked from 6-man to 5A, based on enrollment.
The UIL modified that to 1A to 6A. So, Springtown went from being a 3A school to 4A without truly moving up a clas-sification.
The other change concerned cheerleading.
CheerleadingThe debate about whether
cheerleading is a sport may have been decided by the UIL.
The 32-person Legislative Council approved a one-year pilot program called “Game Day Cheer.”
The new event will mimic usual cheerleading activities. However, no aerial acrobatics will be involved.
If the pilot program is suc-cessful, in the 2015-16 school year, the UIL will govern Game Day Cheer in the same manner as with middle and high school sports.
A state championship will also be conducted for cheer-leading.
It is tentatively scheduled for January in San Antonio and might bring as many as 700 teams since there are no quali-fying rounds earlier.
It was the Texas Medical As-sociation that requested cheer-leading be considered a sport.
As a UIL-sanctioned event, cheerleading now falls under the auspices of established safety and training requirements.
The UIL amendment noted that its competition is not de-signed to “be like or compete” with other cheer competitions.
Schools are not required to take part in the Game Day Cheer pilot program.
FootballAside from the classification
changes, the UIL made some other alterations concerning football.
A major new distinction is moving from the 25-sec-ond clock between plays to a 40-second clock.
This change reflects how the NCAA conducts its play.
Also, a pilot study was ap-proved for 6A and 5A schools to permit a 3-day tryout each spring for sixth graders in prep-aration for seventh grade foot-ball.
There is no longer a Zero Week, the first week football could be played. It is now re-ferred to as Week 1 with 10 more weeks following.
The top four teams from 4A will advance in the playoffs. A
Division I and Division II state champion will be crowned; Springtown plays in Division I.
State championship games will be played Dec. 18-20.
Other sports The number of teams ad-
vancing to cross country state out of regional meets was raised to four and the top 10 racers not already on a qualify-ing team will also move on.
In golf, coaches may now in-struct their players from tee to green.
General public ticket sales for the 2015 state basketball championships have been de-layed while UIL officials try to solve several dilemmas.
The availability and afford-ability of hotels caused by con-current events has moved the UIL to examine possible alter-nate dates and locations for the popular hoops contests.
A UIL release noted, “The League wants to provide the best state championship ex-perience for student-athletes, coaches, and fans involved.”
Last year’s tournaments were conducted at Austin’s Frank Er-win Center on the UT campus.
Other sports have already moved out of Austin.
State wrestling and volley-ball now compete at state in Garland.
The UIL said when a bas-ketball site decision had been reached, it would be posted on its website uiltexas.org.
Two summer camps remain for Springtown youth.
A football camp is slated for July 28-31. The fee is $45 for in-coming 7th through 9th graders.
The camp takes place from The UIL approved a pilot program that makes cheerleading a sport with a state cham-pionship event tentatively set for January in San Antonio. Photo by Mark K. Campbell

Musical biographies occa-sionally pop up and soon more than usual will be landing in theaters.
If the newcomers are as good as Jersey Boys, then we’re in for some groovy movies.
About the film
(The Movie Man said he was going to see Tammy this week, but, since he’s like the common man only substantially more educated cinematically, he read the endless horrid reviews and witnessed its lukewarm week-end performance and passed. [The Movie Man’s tricky; he doesn’t always go see what he teases.])
Jersey Boys was a huge Broadway hit. Those older folks with money flocked to see a stage dramatization of the history of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.
Clint Eastwood, a talented musician himself, took film di-rection chores, the movie was written by Marshall Brickman (an early Woody Allen associ-ate [he won an Oscar for pen-ning, with Allen, the great Annie Hall in 1977), and Chris-topher Walken signed on early.
Just when the film version of Jersey Boys look like it was go-ing to be a Hollywood-heavy movie, Eastwood then cast all unknowns, keeping the Broad-way lead, Tony winner John Lloyd Young as Valli.
Jersey Boys isn’t exactly rak-ing in the cash; that’s too bad – it’s pretty good. Still plenty of other “biopics” loom for musi-cal legends.
Historically, there are been some fantastic musical biop-ics. The Jolson Story (1946) won two Oscars in 1946 with Larry Parks playing the some-times-blackfaced singer. Jim-my Stewart played the famed bandleader in The Glen Miller Story (in 1954).
Later, La Bamba (1987) with Lou Diamond Phillips as Ritchie Valens was a hit and Gary Busey – yes the crazy guy – was Oscar-nominated in The
Buddy Holly Story (1978).Amadeus (1984) was huge
Academy Award bait as was Sissy Spacek as Loretta Lynn in Coal Miner’s Daughter (1980). Jessica Lange shone as Patsy Cline in Sweet Dreams (1985).
Jamie Foxx was incredible as Ray Charles in Ray (2004, Movie Man No. 548, 7) and Reese Witherspoon won an Os-car as June Carter Cash in Walk the Line (2005, MM #641, 7), the Johnny Cash story.
Several biopics are in the pipeline. Before Jersey Boys, a coming attraction about the life of James Brown impressed, Get On Up which will arrive August 1.
Being considered are pic-tures about musicians Whitney Houston, Kurt Cobain, Freddy Mercury, David Bowie, Miles Davis, and Hank Williams.
Often, however, there is a big stumbling block to movies about musicians – obtaining the rights to their music.
A Jimi Hendrix movie strug-gled when the filmmakers couldn’t get those rights so in Jimi: All Is By My Side, they had to work around a big ob-stacle. No “Purple Haze” or “If 6 Was 9”? The movie got a tiny release last March to mixed re-views and will roll out bigger later this year.
Jersey Boys has the music rights even though the songs are sung by the actors; they don’t just mime the original re-cords.
The Four Seasons had a huge string of hits from 1962-1968 then another burst in ’75-’76. Plus, on his own, Valli had nine Top 40 hits, including a pair of No. 1s. In all, the filmmak-ers had 39 songs to pull from as the Four Seasons placed 30 songs in the Top 40. (However, they did record others’ music so that number is actually a little lower.)
This sort of music seems like the Dark Ages to younger audi-ences which are staying away from Jersey Boys in droves. (The theater with the Movie
Man had eight people in it, all 50-plus.) That’s why the mov-ie is not a hit; it’ll be lucky to reach $50 million.
The plot (spoilers)
Tommy (Vincent Piazza) takes teenage Frankie Valli (Young) under his wing in the early 1950’s. When doo-wop rises, Piazza tries to put a band together. Young is the man with an angelic voice and he be-comes the lead singer.
Even with genial mob man Gyp (Walken) supporting them, they struggle. Then the future Joe Pesci (yes, the actor, played by Johnny Cannizzaro) introduces group leader Piazza to songwriter Gaudio (Erich Bergen).
His tunes are what they are missing. The Four Seasons’ first three songs reach No. 1: “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” and “Walk Like a Man” in 1962.
But there is turmoil in the group. Piazza has a massive financial problem and siphons off group money. Young and Bergen agree to form a song-writing partnership behind the scenes. And Young is having serious family trouble back home.
With powerful thugs on their trail, the group breaks up. Young, solo, decides he will pay back every cent of Piazza’s debt, believing he owes his rough buddy for helping him
break free of his Jersey life.
What worksThe songs remain memo-
rable. There’s no Auto-Tuning going on here – just pure voices creating classic pop songs. And older audience members will recognize every one of them.
Eastwood’s direction is as-tonishing. The movie is perfect-ly pieced together, no mean feat in a song-heavy movie where the spotlight is on a guy singing falsetto on stage. The first 90 minutes are exceptional.
Young especially looks like Valli later in the film, the ‘70’s. Piazza is solid and so is Bergen as the author of all those great tunes. Walken’s occasional ap-pearances juice the story, too.
Mike Doyle, playing gay pro-ducer Bob Crewe, also invigo-rates things; he plays the role in an almost swishy stereotype, but it works.
The end credit scene is great, a return to an obvious city street set where everyone who has been in the movie performs in a giant dance number.
Best scene
Piazza gives Bergen a shot as a songwriter. On a piano, he be-gins playing a song, tentatively.
But Young likes what he hears and joins in. Eventually, so do all the band members, in-spiring Bergen to be bolder.
It’s a great scene and East-wood handles it perfectly.
What doesn’t work
After 90 minutes, Jersey Boys bogs down. When Young goes out on his own to cover Piazza’s massive debt, the film flounders. And sequences with his troubled daughter also feel awkward.
The biggest gripe about the movie is that the characters aren’t fully developed. Also, Eastwood “breaks the wall” by having the actors talk directly to the audience. That didn’t bother the Movie Man but might dis-tract others.
There’s an attempt to high-light other kinds of music that
Walk like a man to check out Jersey Boyswas round in the era. However, there just isn’t time enough in the movie to do that topic any justice.
The rating
This is an R for f-bombs only; there are at least 30 ‘cause, hey, they’re from Jersey, yo.
Summing up
The Movie Man liked Jersey Boys – a lot, for most of it. It dropped a number toward the end. Still the movie deserves better than it’s getting at the box office.

Home Maintenance Tip:From the ground, examine roof shingles to see if any
were lost or damaged during winter. If your home has an older roof covering you may want to start a budget for
replacement. Summer sun can really damage shingles. Shingles that are cracked, buckled or loose or are missing granules
should be checked and repaired by a qualified roofer.
