BCSO sting on underage alcohol selling nets 13 BY JIM McGAULEY Press Publisher The sheriff's depadfment doesn't want to say it was "easy," but when a sting team made the rounds two nights last week trying to catch store clerks selling alcohol to minors, it didn't take long to pile on the defendants. Chief Gerald Gonzalez, who lead the team the nights of January 17 and 18 in Macclenny and Glen St. Mary, said about 20 stores were visited. The result? * Thirteen arrests, four of them at the same two stores with different clerks on successive nights.. "We decided it was time to crack down. Deputies are stopping kids under 21 who are drunk or nearly drunk and it's getting worse," observed the chief. "The kids won't tell us where they're getting it, so the best way we can attack this is show up at the stores and try to buy alcohol using someone underage. That someone last week was 20-year-old Amanda Hauge, who works in the communications (dispatch) office of the sheriff's department. According to the chief, she looks her age and 'willingly agreed to play the key role in the stings. Her method was the same everytime: she entered the store, went to a cooler and brought a six pack of beer back to the counter. If the clerk accepts money for it, he or she gets busted. The sole exception was the Country Club Lounge on South 6th, where the minor actually entered the building, sat at the bar and ordered a beer. If the clerk followed the law and carded Ms. Hauge, the team went on to the next store. Chief Gonzalez estimates that happened at six locations. The squad delayed arresting violators until the evening's circuit was complete, then went back to offenders and wrote them a summons to appear in court. Conviction on the second degree misdemeanor could result in a fine of $500 or 60 days in jail, or both. Several of the surprised clerks denied selling to the minor, a fruitless exercise since Ms. Hauge was visual- ly observed from outside buying beer. And she was wearing a bug. "If they said it wasn't them or they didn't sell her the beer, we'd offer to play the tape," said the chief. Ironically, the team was making its rounds the first evening about the time a fatal accident occurred on CR 23A northwest of Macclenny (see article, this page). The Florida Highway Patrol says alcohol may have been a contributing factor. The victim and the driver of his car are both 20. "It (underage purchasing) is obviously a problem and this proves it," Chief Gonzalez asserts. "We won't stop with this and because this seems to be more of a problem we want to get the point across. We want these people (clerks and store owners) to help us in this." Clerks and store owners arrested include: Brenda Eckert, 37, of Macclenny (January 18) and Dorothy Marrow, 45, of Macclenny (January 17) at the Amoco on US 90 at 121; Amy Moffitt, 22, of Macclenny at the Sprint on Sixth St.; Jessie Pyles, 19, of Lake City at S&S; Amir Ali, 43, of Glen St. Mary (January 18) and Karen Higginbotham 45, no address given, (January 17) at Fastway on Woodlawn Road; George Patrio, 51, of Bryceville at Kangaroo on US 90 east in Mac- clenny; Manubhai Patel, 54, of Macclenny at Race- way; Janet Hall, 36, of Baldwin at the Country Club Lounge; Dawn Dean, 20, of Macclenny at the Exxon on South 6th; Alda Hill, 43, of Glen St. Mary at Citgo on South 6th; Amanda Harvey, 21, of Macclenny at Quick N Handy on Lowder; Kathleen Tyson, 61, of Glen St. Mary at the E-Z Stop north of Glen.

GAINESVILLE, FL 32611 Frequent resident shot after argument A man who had lived in Baker County frequently over the last decade became the latest in a rash of homicide victims in Jacksonville the morning of January 17. Kevin Lamar Drev, 27, died of multiple gunshot wounds following an argument with a next-door neighbor on Joffre Dr., a residential area on the westside off Normandy Blv Jacksonville police arrested Larry Felton White, Jr., 23, and are holding j him in jail charged with murder. Mr. Drew. , who has num- erous relatives in Baker Coun- ty, was dead at,, Kevin Drew the scene when police arrived about 10:00 am. The alleged as- sailant said the victim had punched him twice in the mouth and he retrieved a pistol from his resi- dence. When Mr. Drew saw his neigh- bor emerge from the house with the pistol, he fled across the street where he was run down by Mr. White and shot near the side of a residence. Rick Wood, public information officer for the Jacksonville Sher- iff's Office, said the neighbors had a history of arguments. Police in fact had responded to disturbance calls twice already this month. No one was arrested in either case. A group of ministers gathered on January 19 to decry the ten hom- icides that had occurred in Jackson- ville up to that date. Lillian Parker of Macclenny, Mr. Drew's great-grandmother, said he lived in the area "off and on" for about 10 years, mostly to help out with his mother Barbara Rowe of Macclenny. The neighbors reportedly argued frequently about a number of sub- jects, including accusations about missing property.

Middleton, 20, of Macclenny, a passenger in a 1996 Saturn driven by Caleb Kaeck. The driver is also 20 and from Macclenny. Trooper David Myers ofthe Florida Highway Patrol said the Saturn was northbound about 9:00 pm when it attempted to pass slow- er traffic and veered into the path of a southbound 1997 GMC pickup driven by Richard Smith, 25, of Macclenny. The right front of the passenger car struck the right front of the pickup, and the impact spun both vehicles around and into the west ditch and shoulder. Mr. Middleton, a native of Cal- ifornia whose nickname was "Petey," died at the scene. Trooper Myers said he was not wearing a seat belt, nor were the driver or. Mr. Smith .

Aging pets.., They're living longer, too; some things you should know about dogs and cats KELLEY LANNIGAN Press Staff People love their pets. They are a source of affection, loyalty and enter- tainment. For decades, dbgs held the title of most popular pet in America. Cats have steadily closed that gap and recently surpassed their canine counterparts to hold the title of most popular pet in the United States. Cats and dogs can live to a very ripe old age and that average age is increasing all the time. It's not unusual for a family pet to live for two decades or more. There are reports of cats and dogs liv- ing into their late twenties and, with rare exceptions, Stanley beyond that. An Australian cattle dog named Bluey is documented as being the oldest dog in the world, passing away at the age of 29 - approximately 189 in corresponding human years. There are undocumented reports of older dogs.

While there is great appeal in raising a pet from a small kitten or puppy, there can be some advantages to adopting an older pet. The energy level of kittens and puppies can be overwhelming. Older animals usual- ly have already had some behavior training and are housebroken. In general, they are calmer and more settled. This is good for an older person adopting a pet who may not have the desire or patience to raise a young animal. Older pets often are a better choice in households with very young, often ram- bunctious children who tend to be too rough or careless with baby animals. The older dog or cat already understands what 'no' means and is socialized to be with humans. They are a "known commodi- ty," meaning that the animal's history and health records are often available from a veterinarian. A belief persists that older dogs are set in their ways and cannot be successfully (Page two please) the Cat, 17, eats his nightly ration of cheese.

An example is Autumn,. a 10-year-old mixed breed considered unexcep- tional by her disinterested owners who finally put her up for adop- tion. The fimil\ 's nickname for Autumn was "stupid." Autumn was adopted by: a new, caring owner who decided the dog minihlit benefit from some training. Now 14, Autumn routinely wins awards in obedience competitions. Senior dogs who go through training often thrive on the extra a- ttention and social interaction. Dr. Robert Engle, owner of Baldwin Animal Clinic, has some advice for the care of an older pet. "One of the most troubling aspects for older animals that con- cerns me is undue strc~" said Dr. Engle. "Animals are so much like peo- ple; they establish routines that are familiar and comfortable for them and they get set in their ways. If something suddenly disrupts that routine the animal may develop anxiety, which can accelerate all sorts of health ailmiert." An example of the type of stress that concerns Dr. Baldwin would be the acquisition of a new pet with pcrsin.lit) traits very differ- ent from the older pet. If the new pet is aggressive or loud or terri- torial, this will frighten and intimi- date the older pet, e',peciall) if that older pet has tr.iadljon.tll been the only one in the household. Another example is boarding a pet. that isn't used to it, which can be confusing and sometimes terri- fying. The animal feels like it's in jail. It feels abandoned and can't understand why, "'Separation anxiety is bad too," Dr. Engle continues. "I've seen sit- uations in which two dogs or cats were together for years and one suddenly dies. The other animal can go into mourning, refusing to eat or drink and wastes j a'.i." Because of the variety of ail- ments that 1tpicall\ affect pets as they age, such as kidney disfunc- tion in cats and hip displasia and heart problems in dogs, Dr. Engle recommends a yearly blood work exam. In a pet's later years, vacci- nation is not so important. The CBC test (complete blood count) is. Many of the problems that affect pets are "slow smoldering," says Dr. Engle. "Th,) may take years to de- velop and when the symptoms finally show up, it's already too late to help very much. A yearly blood test shows indications of these ailments long before the pet. gets sick. At that point, preventive measures can be taken." Good oral hygiene is crucial to the general N1ell-being of senior animals and is one of the more neglected pet care areas.

Among other recommendations in the report: Fix and update the water treat- ment plant at Macclenny II to make it a regional plant, then con- nect it to the city's system along SR 121. Install a 250,000-gallon ele- vated water tank near Blair Nurs- eries for fire flow and residual pressure. Run water lines along SR 228, under the interstate and connect them to Macclenny II, opening up the Knabb property to develop- ment. Mr. Darabi predicted 2400 homes will eventually be built in that area. Install water lines along US 90 from Owens Acres Drive to \\ildcaj[ Drive. Replace two pumps at the Northeast Florida State Hospital lift station. Mr. Darabi said he's' approached NEFSH officials, who are open to discussing the matter. At the end of Tuesday's meet- ing, Mayor Dopson said his calcu- lation of Mr. Darabi's figures showed the project totaling about $500,000 less than projected. * Slag Fill Dirt Sand Milling Clay * Fish Ponds, Land Clearing, Culverts & Roads Built on a neatiiil~ pad in tle living room.

Impressed with the enthusiasm, dedication of middle school band: THE BACK PORCH One evening, a couple of weeks before Christmas, I went out to shoot some photos of the Baker County Middle'School holiday concert. I entered the school and wan- dered down brightly lit, but very empty hallways hallways that during the day are noisy and busy with the foot traffic of lively stu- dents making their way from one class to another before the tardy bell sounds. When I found the auditorium, it was so packed with people I couldn't get near the stage. My first impression, was this however good or bad the performance of these kids might be, the support of family and friends was tremendous. It surely must have bolstered the confidence of even the shyest and most unsure band student. The crowd broke up a little at intermission and I managed to get backstage. Bill McClendon, the school's band director, dressed in a formal black suit and tie, stood with his and the rattling of windows in every part of this section that we have heard from. J.W. Rowe was at home at the time and says the rumble seemed to come from the Maxville section. Wm. Knabb reports the people at Woodstock saying it sounded north, while in Macclenny it was hard to locate the direction. C. E. Wilkerson was at Maxville at the time and tells us that it seemed to be a heavy explosion coming from the east of that place. We have read of no unusual ex- plosion any where in this part of the State, and for this reason we believe that it was an earth tremor or the explosion of a falling mete- or. We hope to have further infor- mation to report next week, as we are making inquires in every direc- tion and hope to locate the exact nature of this unusual occurence. 50 years ago...

The boys were last seen in a Macclenny restaurant early in the morning of Dec. 4th 1955. back against the closed stage cur- tain. The students, all wearing white shirts and brand, new black bow ties, sat behind their music stands, looking professional arid ' grown .up. :Waving his conducting \\and,.' McClendon 'put the students through their paces as. h war/ied them up for the second half of the concert. The wind instruments gleamed and flashed under the lights. The percussion section ruin- bled out its cadences and rhythms. McClendon called out directions and encouragements and the band followed .its leader through the maze of notes on the musical scores before them., The energy backstage was warm and fun. I had a great time. Regretfully, the photos: I sh.et , that night never made it to press. That sometimes happens and it's nobody's fault. It doesn't mean that the event wasn't newsworthy or interesting. But when there is breaking news of very serious content which can happen at the last moment, editorial decisions must be made as to the priority of what gets printed. Some news and photos inevitably get left, ,out in that decision making pro- cess. So, I decided to give an appre- SA state wide investigation has been in progress shortly after their disappearance by all law enforce- ment officers.

Closing of local Ford dealership seen imminent The prospect of the county re- taining two new car dealerships dimmed considerably last week when it was learned that the Feder- al Small Business Administration rejected the latest loan request from Regal Ford of Macclenny. Bernie Haddock, president of the firm, laid off five remaining full time employees last Friday, and said this week that he will probably have to close down in the near future. Haddock had been at the helm of Regal Ford since Labor Day, 1976. Regal Ford is just the latest name carried by Ford in Baker County. Starting with Knabb Mo- tors in the 1930's.

When I interviewed 'her, she credited her grandmother, who paid for her lessons and her sup- portive parents for her success.. I saw that same love and enthu- siasm from parents and friends in the audience that night at. Baker County Middle School while the students played their hearts out and their director led them with dedica- tion and belief in their abilities to do their best. Who knows, maybe the next Itzhak Perlman or Kenny G was born ,that night right here on a small school stage in Macclenny. Now, wouldn't that be a toot? Efforts of Patterson 'enormous Dear Editor: I write this letter to acknowl- edge the enormous contribution Rev. Tim Patterson has made to this community, to the Baker County Sheriff's Office and to me person- nally. Brother Tim has been an in- tegral part of Baker County since his arrival 15 years ago. He was instrumental founding a ministry for law enforcement de- puties, which enabled the First Baptist Church of Glen to "Adopt- A-Cop." The program has been a huge success, showing men and women in law enforcement opera- tions they are encouraged and prayed for daily. Brother Tim also established a law enforcement banquet each Christmas to honor deputies and' their families. He has been available day and night to pray and counsel with members of the Baker County Sheriff's Office, especially with Sgts. Buck Dyal and Michael Crews when they were wounded during a shooting. Brother Tim has been a source of encouragement to me on many occasions, praying with me before bypass surgery and during difficult and stressful times during my terms in office.. While we will miss him and feel his absence in our lives and community, we wish for him the very best God has to offer as he begins a new endeavor to serve his Lord. JOEY DOBSON Sheriff-Baker County Influence of pastor will be long lasting Dear Editor: .kAs Pastor Tim Patterson ends his 15-year tenure at First Baptist ..Church of Glen St.,Mary, we would like to express ourisincere appreci- ation for all he has done for our family, our church and our commu- nity. Pastor Tim's wisdom and vision helped place First Baptist at the forefront of issues facing Baker County and his courage, commit- ment and leadership have made an impact on this community that will continue long after he is gone. His calling 'yas to serve and preach the gosp l whether in Af- rica, Mexico or Baker County, and his message was always consistent with. God's Word. As he now moves on to a new church, we want to let him know that his dedication and service did 'not go unappreciated. To Tim and Sabina, we say God Speed. You will be missed.

Two of the three houses purchased by the City of Macclenny from a flood-prone block in the northeast city began their journey to Green Cove Springs on January 16, shown here as they head south from the Interstate 10 bridge over SR 121, escorted by police vehicles.

'Enraged' man gets one year BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Staff A Macclenny man described by police as being in an -'enraged trance" as he faced off with them armed with a rifle was sentenced to a year in jail after being found guilty by a Baker County jury. John Binion had been charged with two counts of aggr'. ated as- sault on a law enforcement officer, but jurors opted for the lesser of- fense of improper exhibition of a firearm. Circuit Judge David Glant sen- tenced him to 364 days in county jail with credit for 151 days served. On January 23, the judge denied Mr. Binion's motion for a new trial. Prior to the January 18 trial, Mr. Binion pleaded no contest to a charge of batters Police had gone to his home last summer after he beat his wife. Public defender John Maguire argued that the jury should not have been shown photographs of the victim because they weren't relevant to the aggravated assault charges. Sgt. Michael Crews responded to the Mr. Binion's home on Bird Pond Road in the early morning hours of August 21 last year. He found the wife bleeding pro- fusely from her face. She told him that her husband was supposed to pick her up at work at 11:00 pm but never show- ed up. She got a ride home from her sister-in-law, then fell asleep on the couch, but was awakened around 3:30 am when her husband came home and began groping her. She told him to leave her alone and asked where he'd been. Mr. Binion then began beating her in the head and face and re- peatIedl\ biting her on her upper body. She briefly broke away, but he tackled her and stomped on her head. She eventually escaped and called police from a neighbor's. Sgt. Crews tried unsuccessfully to get Mr. Binion to come out of the house. Instead he began pacing inside and trashing the place. Then he kicked the back door, SX--.....I which came open. The officer saw him standing there with a rifle. He described Mr. Binion as be- ing in an "enraged trance," and "pale... with blood splattered .on his face." z '- Mr. Binion refused to put down the weapon, but at one point he lowered it. Deputy Darrin Whitaker, who'd arrived in the meantime, released his police dog, who diverted Mr. Binion's attention. The officers then subdued him. In other cases: Ho ward Hartley was sen- tenced to 14.55 months in prison after he pleaded no contest to three counts of sale or possession of a controlled substance. He received credit for 221 days already served. Mitchell Buchanan had his probation revoked and sentenced to six months in jail with credit for 35 days served. He, pleaded no contest to sale or possession of a controlled substance. PRESS ADVERTISING DEADLINE 4 PM MONDAY S.

", Deep appreciation We would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank all of those who have shown their love and support at our time of loss. Your prayers, acts of kindness: and words of encouragement have given us much comfort during this difficult period. Our dad was a strong man and he put lip a hard fight, but it seems he just had too many serious things concerning his health to win this last battle. We would especially like to thank V. Todd Ferreira Funeral Services for their sensitive and caring manner, as well as their professional attention to every detail. We would also like to thank the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Sjints-for their 'oviYng..i care and gracious hospitality. Walter Davis was a wonderful husband and father who took care of his family all his life and spent his latter years seeing to the needs of the elderly and less fortunate. Our dad truly believed that a father's role was to provide and protect his loved ones and he lived his life in such a manner. We love him very much and he will be greatly missed, but will continue to live on in our memories and in our hearts. Thank you, again, and may our Heavenly Father bless you. SINCERELY, THE WALTER DAVIS JR., FAMILY Thanks so much The family of Robert L. Ak- ridge would like to extend its grat- itude and appreciation for all the prayers, food, visits and calls dur- ing the loss of our dad. I We would like to extend a very special thank you to Bro. Jim Cox and Bro. David Clark for their long hours and comfort of the fam- ily when we needed them. Also to the Taylor Church con- gregation, the Baker County Transportation Dept., Charlotte's Web, Todd Ferreira for a great job, the Baker County Fire and Rescue Department for all their efforts, the Baker County Sheriff's Office and a special thanks to Robbie and Stephanie Foster for a quick re- sponse.

Bradford County visited the Baker High gym January 21, and took home a 72-70 victory.,. In front of a large, loud and crazy crowd, the Cats led most of the game, but each time they seemed poised to pull away, the visitors hung in. 'Up 24-17 at the end of the first quarter, the Cats increased their lead to ten points with four, minutes left second. , However, the visitors closed the gap to 38-35 going into half- time. They tied the game about midway through the third quar- ter and took the lead 50-47 with less than two minutes to go. Both teams finished the quar- ter strong as the Cats tied the. game at 57 with a 10-7 run. Tornadoes took the. lead for ,good early in the fourth quarter. then maintained a .two or three point margin through the rest of the game, as the Cats failed to capitalize on some key posses- sion. Down 70-68 with 22 seconds-' left, they Cats came up empti and were forced to foul %when Bradford got the rebound. After the Tornadoes player hit one of two, the Cait. got the ball back with 1n seconds to go. but once more failed to con\ ert. Bradford again hit one of two free throws, taking a 72-6S lead and putting the game out of reach., The Wildcats then traveled to Middleburg January 24 where they beat the Broncos 66-5 7. The Cats record stands at 12- 8 (5-4 in district). It was the final away game for the Cats, who'd opened the season with seven of eight on the road. They went 2-6 in that stretch. then losing in the first round of their holiday tournament. Ho.e er, the\ salvaged their season beginning w ith two wins in the tournament, then se en more before losing to Bradford.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Carolina Panthers took similar paths to reach the Super Bowl XL February 5 in Detroit. The Steelers used a strong de- fense and resilient offense to dis- mantle the Denter Broncos 34-17 before a shocked Mile High Sta- dium crowd. Seattle was at home in the loudest stadium in the NFL, and also relied on a stick\, underrated defense, quarterback Matt Hassel- beck and the league's Most Valu- able Plauer, running back Shaun Alexander to defeat the Carolina Panthers 34-14. It's an appealing matchup. Pittsburgh came in as the low- est seed. The number 6 seed then proceeded to defeat seeds 1,2, and 3 to take the AFC crown. The\ did so with a strong de- fense, a decent run game and Ben' Roethlisberger. wtho in two \ears as Steeler quarterback has amassed a 24-4 record. Not bad for a gu:, out of Miami of Ohio. a mid-major school. Big Ben picked apart a Denter defense that has complete, shut dow% n op- position this season.

With six seconds left the Cats were down one and had the ball. Coach Franklin Griffis called a clear out for Brittan\ Ruise. The freshman, who scores, about nine per game. is second to Brittany Hinson who puts up about 13. Hinson, huw'c\ cr, was sick and did not suit up Ruise drove the lane and took it to the hole. switching the ball from her right hand to lit for the soft finger roll. Griffis said. But the ball rolled around and off the rim \% ith a few seconds left. The Cats immediately fouled and the Lady Bulldog missed the first of a one-and-one. Ruise took the ball to half court, and threw up a desperation shot,: Which nearly went in as the buzzer sounded. Ruise led the team with 12 points, followed by Kara Dupree and Ophellia Belford, who each. had eight.

Their final loss was January 17 to Callahan 40-22. Chris McCray was the leading scorer with seven, .and Deontay Farmer put up six. In looking back over the sea- son, coach Shawn Mahon had mixed feelings on how the team measured up to expectations. "In ways it did and in ways it did not," he said. "From the stand point of the team, yes it did live up to what I had hoped. The team never quit and never gave up. They played hard every minute of went down to the wire.

The Cats did not rebound or shoot, well against the Warriors, and committed 34 turnovers. Belford was .the lone standout, hitting six of her first seven shots on the way to a game-high 17 points. Ruise again had 12. "West Nassau is a good team," Griffis said. "But we reverted back to how we played in the be- ginning of the year." every game. As a coach you can- not ask for more than that. "Of course our record could have been better, but it is impor- tant to understand that these play- ers are in middle school, and learning the game is more impor- tant than wins." As far as game strategy, Ma- hon also felt he did not prepare for the press effectively. "If I had it to do over again I would have prepared for the press earlier. Just after Christmas we were much better prepared to han- dle the press than we were earlier in the year. We could have stayed in some of those games early in the year if I had expected it." The team is losing five out of 12 players to the ninth grade. Among the basketball hopefuls next year will be eight experi- enced players. "Next year we should im- proved. If we can add some of the students that were grade ineligible this season we should have a very competitive team." BY BOB GERARD Press Sports The BCHS Wildcats had an outstanding showing last weekend at the Bobcat Duals in Gainesville, placing third and los- ing only to two of the state's best teams. The Wildcats fell to the state's top ranked wrestling team, Suwannee County, and also to Gainesville High School, which is ranked fifth. The Bobcat Duals were hosted by Buchholtz High School. The Wildcats are scheduled to wrestle Middleburg at 3:00 in the Baker High gym. It's their last meet of the regular season. Jared Hand continued to wres- tle extremely well, passing the 30- Sarah Trawick can't quite get to this rebound against Suwannee County. Still, they were down by only seven at the half, but let the game get away from them. The Cats defeated Hilliard 62- 36 January 24, avenging an earlier loss to the Flashes,. Ruise scored 20, Hinson 17. The win improves the Cats' regular season record to'4-15 (2-8 in district). Griffis said he and his players are looking forward to finishing the season strong. "I'm encouraged... if we play like we did through most of Janu- ary," Griffis said. "The girls are excited about playing Ridgeview in districts." Their final regular season game is January 27 at Fernandina Beach. win plateau with 4 wins and one loss at the Duals. Hand, the team captain has a 33-3 record on the season and is approaching Ernie Young's school "We have three to five kids who could advance to state, and a couple who could place. " Coach Joe Van Vactor record of 39 wins. His loss at the Gainesville tour- nament came to the state's top- ranked wrestler in the 215-pound class. "He's in good shape to tie the record in the first round of the dis- trict tournament," said coach Joe Van Vactor. Blake Yarborough was 3-2 for the meet, and Timmy Mason and Brandon Lucas also wrestled well. After the meet with Middle- burg Van Vactor will travel to the girls state tournament at Osceola High School in Kissimmee. He had two girls qualify for the state competition Sarah Combs and Kristin Smith., The boys district tournament begins February 3 at Suwannee High in Live Oak. Van Vactor was upbeat about the team's chances.
