Inmate is

accused of

fabricating

jail shank'
A co-defendant charged in
the stabbing death of a Cuyler
man back in August entered a
not guilty plea in circuit court
this week to fashioning sharp
"shank" knives while in-custody
at county jail.
According to a statement by a
fellow inmate in early October,
Stephen V. Arnold, 51, of Sand-
erson said he intended to use the
knives to take a jail employee
hostage and gain his freedom.
According to witness and infor-
mant William Mack Cordle, 42,

'I've killed once so I'll
kill again. What have I
got to lose?' -quote by
Stephen V. Arnold
of Glen St. Mary, Mr. Arnold
said he'd kill if he had to.
"I've killed once so I'll kill
again. What have I got to lose?"
Mr. Cordle quoted Mr. Arnold as
say ing. The fellow inmate made
the claim during an interview
Oct. 7 with Sgt. Adam Faircloth
of the sheriff's department.
Mr. Arnold and co-defen-
dant Melinda Wilson, 48, also
of Sanderson. were indicted for
first-degree murder by a grand
jury on August 31 in the death
of Dorsev Bennett on August 12.
The\ are held %\ without bond and
Mr. Arnold is currently housed in
a high-securitN dorm, according
to Lt. John FinleN, chief of jail
operations.
Lt. Fi ne said one of the piec-
es of sharpened metal was found
near a television in F-dorm where
the inmate had been staying. Two
other "shanks" made from metal
affixed to broken-off toothbrush-
es were found in a light fixture in
the shower room.
A box-style fan in the dorm
was the source of the metal, and
it was damaged in the process, as
was the light fixture, according
to the incident report. It indicates
also Mr. Cordle first approached
jail Sgt. Brad Harvey and deputy
Sgt. Thomas Dyal about the con-
traband.
Mr. Cordle is being held on a
charge of possession of a weap-
on by a convicted felon. He has
a lengthy arrest and conviction
record in Baker County.
Inmate Arnold first told Sgt.
Faircloth that Mr. Cordle was
making the knives for a trusty in-,
mate to "set up" another jail oc-
cupant, but could'not recall key
details of the arrangement.
In other cases this week before
Judge David Glant, Justin Ham-
monds got ten years after plead-
ing to possession of cocaine with
intent to sell. He was on proba-
tion at the time of his arrest.

Step-by-step recovery


Young Ethan Arnold on the mend after second brain tumor removal


BY KELLEY LANNIGAN
Press Siaft
It's a windy, but beautifully sunny morning on the grounds of the
Macclenny Moose Lodge on Lowder Street. The slight bo\ with the
translucent blue eyes waits for his mom to unfold the wheelchair.
When he's settled, she gently pushes him around to check out the
events taking place.
Every ten feet they are stopped by old friends inquiring about the
boy's progress after his recent surgery, or by well-wishers who have


Fireman buried by colleagues
The casket of Joseph Lloyd Ray of Glen St. Mary is borne by a fire truck to
Taylor Cemetery in north Baker County on Tuesday following a funeral ser-
vice at Raiford Road Church in Macclenny. Mr. Ray, a retired captain with the
Jacksonville Fire Department, died of cancer on November 11. A contingent of
Jacksonville fire units was joined by several local trucks for the trip to Taylor
just after noon, and the truck shown in this photo is operated by the firefighters
union in Jacksonville and used for ceremonial occasions.

Six year old Ethan Ar-

that included a yard sale, t.
the sale of baked goods --
and pork dinners and mu-

a benefit to help offset
some of the Ethan's medi-
cal expenses.
In 2003 at age three,
Ethan was diagnosed with

known as ventricles and
from the central canal of the spinal cord.
In young children, tumors tend to develop at the base of the brain.
If the tumor is non-malignant, the cells usually don't spread to other
parts of the brain or spinal cord. Recurrence of ependymoma tumors
is common.
After surgery, the patient's motor skills are compromised and bal-
ance is a big problem for a while. Ethan's first surgery was successful,
but recovery was difficult. Ethan remained healthy for three years.
He then developed frequent headaches in August 2003 and exami-
nation revealed a second tumor developing in the same location at the
base of the skull. Surgery was again performed and the tumor, luck-
ily, had not spread to any other area.
"His recovery has gone so much quicker this time," said Ethan's
mother, Brook Arnold. "The surgery went fine it's getting him back
on his feet that's the hard part."

Ice house


approved


for Glen's

downtown

Assured that the building will
bebeige in color with brick skirt-
ing and landscaping, the Glen St.
Mary Town Council this week
approved placement of an ice
house at the northwest corner of
US 90 and CR 125.
Councilman Jack Reneau
cast the sole vote against what
amounts to a departure from
Glen's master development
plan. Councilman Perry Hays
was absent from the November
13 special meeting.
The board also received as-
surance the Ice House America
pre-fab structure will be the sole
business enterprise at the cor-
ner.
Petitioner Keith Davis. \\ho
has one of the franchise units
on South 6th in Macclenny. said
he was assured b) owner Eston
Monds a go-kart and used car
sales lot, along with an intermit-
tent car wash, will be remo\ ed
from the 88' by 137' lot.
The dimensions also com-
ply with setback requirements,
another uncertainty\ \\hen the
council debated an hour and a
half the evening of No% ember 6
before tabling the petition.
Councilman Reineau in both
meetings said he opposed the
variance from the "En\ vision
Glen" concept of permanent
structures with neutral color
schemes.
Councilman Hays likewise
said he would have cast a no
vote had he been there. The law
does not allow proxy voting.
Mayor Juanice Padgett, who
repeatedly during last week's
special meeting pointed out the
conflict with "Envision Glen,"
nonetheless voted with the ma-
jority.
"I agree with all three of
you," she declared taking both
sides before the vote. "We need
to take a look at Envision Glen
if we're going to make changes
to it."
With the last statement, she
sided with Councilman Woody
Crews, who last week said re-
peatedly he believes the master
plan compiled two years ago is
too stringent, though he support-
ed it at the time.
Mr. Davis told the board the
Moultrie, Ga.-based franchiser
agreed to ship a beige structure
rather than a white one, but it
will retain the trademark blue
penguins and lettering.
The 8' X 24' ice dispensing
house will face south on the lot,
.and have a matching blue canvas
awning.
Councilman Crews predicted
the building will not be there
long because it sits on a prime
commercial corner likely to be
snatched up along with adjacent
ones for large retailers like Wal-
greens.
Mr. Davis said he signed a
one-year lease with Mr. Monds.
He compared the placement
to the five-year variance given
Country Federal Credit Union on
US 90 east for a modular office.
It is supposed to be replaced by a
permanent office and connected
retail offices.
Councilman Dickie Foster,
who was not on the board when
Envision Glen was adopted,
agreed with the majority the

'Step-by step'...


(From page 1)


Ms. Arnold credits a team of
doctors at Shands in Gainesville,
especially neurosurgeon David-
Pincus, for the success of the
surgery. She especially appreci-
ates the personal manner of the
doctors and their willingness to
spend time talking with the rela-
tives and explaining the details.
Ethan's recovery required occu-
pational and cognitive speech
therapy and he is still under-
going therapy as an outpatient.
The first grader, who is enrolled
at Westside Elementary, has a
teacher who visits the home to
help him with schoolwork while
he recuperates.
Ethan, who wants to be a po-
liceman when he grows up, is
enthusiastically using his brand
new customized wheel chair
provided by Medicaid until he
regains all of his mobility. Dis-
tance is the issue for Ethan at the
moment. It's hard to stand and
keep balanced for prolonged pe-
riods. He uses a walker for short
distances and his bright metallic
green chair for extended travel.
"The wheels light :up!" the
boy exclaims.
Ethan's experience has been
a challenge for his mom, but she
has found her own way to cope.
She read extensively about the
rare cancer and found much in-
formation that was dishearten-
ing. She made the decision to be
realistic, but not to live in a neg-
ative world. She pays attention
only to the important facts and
lets the rest go.
"It's my job to maintain hope
for my child," says the attrac-
tive, dark-haired Ms. Arnold.
"And no one but God is ulti-
mately in control."
Dreams Come True, a branch
of the Make A Wish Foundation
serving children in Northeast
Florida who have serious illness-


es, has granted Ethan' a dream.
He hasn't yet decided what that
dream will be, but someone has
suggested an airplane ride.
"Oh, I would like to fly!" he
declared.
Ms. Arnold is grateful to all
volunteers, especially her land-
lord and friend Josie Davis, for
his support to her son through-
out his ordeal.
To make a donation in Ethan
Arnold's name, please contact
Mercantile Bank in Macclenny.

Youth leads

cops on chase
A 17-year-old male who led
a deputy sergeant on a vehicle
chase in north Macclenny is
charged with. fleeing and with
criminal mischief for damaging
property at a residence off CR
23C.
The youth surrendered af-
ter steering his 1995 Chevrolet
pickup into a private driveway
off Ivy St. Sgt. Adam Faircloth
had been pursuing the boy after
he received a vehicle description
following the property damage
incident late on November 9.
Theresa Finley said the pick-
up drove through a fence in her
front yard, causing $250 dam-
age, then drove off. Her two sons
followed it and later alerted the
officer, who located the suspect
and truck at a bonfire in a section
off North 7th and Margaret St.
known as the "cowhole."
Sgt. Faircloth said he then
chased the pickup through the
wooded area, and back to North
7th to Ivy where the youth at-
tempted to hide by turning south
into the driveway and pulling be-
hind a residence.
When queried as to why he
ran, the youth told Sgt. Faircloth,
"I don't like the police."

Complaint

alleges theft

by contractor
The Baker County sheriff's'
department last week filed a
criminal complaint against a
Lawtey, Fla. contractor who it
alleges failed to make good on a
deal to repair damage done by a
police cruiser in April, 2004.
The complaint names Timo-
thy Williams, 39, owner of Sim-
plified Builders, who cashed an
$800 check in August of that year
shortly after it was issued by the
department. It was intended to
pay for repairs to Lyman Green's
BBQ on US 90 across from the
county'courthouse.
The restaurant building sus-
tained minor damage when struck
by a rolling police car driven by
ex-deputy Mark Lowery, who
was on a routine security check.
The report by Lt. Chuck Bran-
nan notes that Sheriff Joey Dob-
son contacted Mr. Williams "on
numerous occasions over the
past two years with no success."
The department also prevailed
on Agent Chris Webster of FDLE
to intercede. Mr. Webster is an
acquaintance of the. contractor
and had no success either.
The complaint for grand theft
was forwarded November 8 to
the state attorney's office.

master plan should be altered if
the board continues to make ex-
ceptions.
"If we're going to follow En-
vision'Glen,1 we'd liae t tdir`"
this down," he stated before the
vote that capped the 20-minute
meeting.
"Personally, I think it (the
ice house) is an eyesore. If they
change the color and clean it up,
it's okay. From a business point
of view, it's a good thing."
The council expressed con-
cern the immediate area be kept
free of plastic bags and other
trash. Mr. Davis vowed to do so,
adding that in several other loca-
tions customers leave all types
of trash near the vending area.
He also said the ice mak-
ing machinery makes minimal
noise and is at its loudest when
it dumps the ice after it is pro-
duced.

com.
Westboro Church was in the
local news last week when it
threatened to picket the funeral
of Army Cpl. Isaiah Calloway,
a Jacksonville native killed Oct.
30 in Afghanistan.
The photo, featured in a "''Let-
ter to the earthdwellers," shows
a group of people, presumably
members of the congregation,
holding some of their infamous
picket signs.
The messages on the signs
are disturbing and shocking.
Disturbing also is the apparent
age of many of the protesters -
elementary and high school stu-
dents brandishing signs which
read: Fags Die God Laughs;
God is America's Terrorist;
God Hates You; Thank God For
I.E.Ds (roadside bombs).
The followers of the West-
boro Church believe it is their
mission to admonish and warn
America, which they refer to as
The United States of Sodom, of
the punishment in store for its
many transgressions.
The war in Iraq, they claim, is
just one of the divine ways God
is visiting His vengeance upon
a corrupt, licentious nation that

DESERT DIARY
MAJ. BOBBY HART
November 13, 2006
CAMP VICTORY, Iraq-I've
said many times: we in America
don't appreciate just how good
we have it.
When you see how people
live over here, you realize that
just because you're paying some
ungodly amount of money for a
gallon of gas to go into your gas-
guzzling SUV or you have poor
Internet connectivity or poor
reception on your cell phone, it
could always be worse.
We as soldiers are not immune
to sniveling about our quality of
life, but we, too, have it pretty
good.
This week we held a cere-
mony for Veteran's Day. It was
probably not what most people
would consider a ceremony.
We gathered in the foyer of our
building, someone sang the Na-
tional Anthem, somebody else
said a prayer, we had a brief
speech and sang the Army Song.
Then we went back to work.
When we went to chow lat-
er, the DFAC people had a big
Veteran's Day cake laid out with
chocolate Easter bunnies all
around it. I haven't quite picked
up on the connection.
Despite our low key celebra-
tion, Veteran's Day is still a sig-
nificant event for us. A week ago,
our unit was presented combat
patches to wear on our uniforms.
For some of us it was the second,
third or even fourth patches we
have earned. But for the others,"
it signified that they had "paid
their dues" and you could sense
an added measure of pride as in-
dividuals checked and rechecked
the triangular piece of cloth dis-
played on their right sleeve.
Another thing that really made
this Veteran's Day special was a
ceremony held at the al Faw pal-
ace where 75 soldiers became
United States citizens. They
ranged in age from 19 to 36, and
came from all around the globe.
More than 22,000 service


)Baptistb
rates homosexuality, adultery,
divorce and abortion.
That is why the group pickets
military funerals. It claims that
soldiers who die in Iraq and Af-
ghanistan, who are sacrificing
their lives to protect the freedom
and liberty that ironically, the
members of Westboro Church
enjoy, have angered God. They
get what they deserve and are
currently residing in hell for it.
/. They claim also, that pick-
eting the funerals of these sol-
diers is a way to warn funeral at-
tendees of their own inevitable
doom, lest they repent:.
Across the nation, people are
appalled at the beliefs and ac-
tions of the We-tboro Church,
which believes the notion that
God is merciful and loving to-
ward all creation is a satanic
myth. For the past 15 years the
church claims to have been, in
its own words "rejoicing at the
works of a sovereign, almighty
God that avenges his people
(true believers)."
Shock and disbelief in the
Jacksonville community trans-
lated into action %\hen word
got out of the church's threat to
picket Calloway's funeral. Con-
cerned citizens, many of them
veterans, turn out in droves to
show their support and respect.
A motorcycle group known as
the Patriot Guard Riders, who
ride to honor veterans, came
to form a human shield, shel-
tering the family and funeral
proceedings.
Westboro failed to show up,
thankfully. State Rep Stan Jor-
dan recently authored a Florida
law banning such disruptions
at military funerals. Calloway's
funeral was to be the first time
the ban would be tested under


beliefss full of inconsistencies


penalty of $1,000 fines and jail
sentences of up to one year.
Westboro Church's website
backs up its stance that God
hates America and individual
people by amassing numerous
scriptural references (and there
are many). Yet, it fails to give
equal weight to the abounding
references that speak of forgive-
ness, redemption, transforma-
tion and healing.
I 'certainly don't have the an-
swers or explanations regarding
the state society finds itself cur-
rentd in. I. too, get disheartened
and forlorn at the often despica-
ble behavior of human beings,
at crime, murder, deceit. and the


atrocities of war. I struggle to
understand the mystery of natu-
ral disasters such as floods and
hurricanes.
But I will never believe that
my brothers and sisters in the
military, who lose their limbs,
occasionally their sanity, and
sometimes their very lives in the
service of protecting the Unit-
ed States, are on the receiving
end of a vengeful, wrathful God
who scoffs and laughs at their
destruction.
I find it ironic that Westboro's
entire message seems to be driv-
en by scorn and hate. Through-
out biblical history, the Israel-
ites, by all accounts, were an


imperfect people and had to be
. forgiven over and over.
I look at it this way. If the God
that Christians acknowledge is
powerful enough to bring the
universe into existence with a
few words, then humanity, re-
gardless of the depths to which
it might sink, is redeemable by
that same God.
Psalm 130 says it best:
0 Israel, hope in the Lord!
For with the Lord there is stead-
fast love, and with him is great
power to redeem. It is he who
will redeem Israel from all its
iniquities.

A wonderfuldisplay ofpatriotism
Dear Editor:
On November 9 I1 had the privilege and honor to be a guest at Mac-
clenny Elementary for the Veteran's Day program. This outstanding
display of patriotism was performed by the third grade classes under
the direction of Kinita Bishop.
Mrs. Bishop and her volunteers do a wonderful job teaching chil-
dren just what it means to be an American, and to show gratitude and
appreciation to the men and women who have served and are serving
in the Armed Forces to protect their right to be free.
As a US Navy veteran, I was so proud to be part of this great day. I
have attended this program for years with my grandchildren, and each
year is more moving than the last.
We are so blessed to have such loving and caring teachers and staff
at Macclenny Elementary. God bless each of you and God bless Amer-
ica!

TV's cam


er in perhaps the nastiest cam-
paign in this part of the state. I
kept hoping there was some way
both of these obnoxious charac-
ters could manage to lose.
But no, somebody had to win,
which proved the case all over the
country. Like it or not, the elec-
torate has spoken and the biggest
wind of change swept through
the country since Newt Gingrich
and the Republicans brought
the "Contract With America" to
Washington in 1994. Whatever
happened to that?
Now it's the Democrats' turn.
I love American history and
I'm writing this column on a
computer. What do the two have
in common with last week's
election? I'll tell you.
Every dozen or so years this
country, like a computer, likes to
restart itself. The country wants
to clear its head every now and
then.
It's been 12 years since the
Republicans took Congress. Be-
fore that, the Democrats had it
for about that long. What tends
to happen after eight or ten years
is the party in power gets arro-
gant and stops governing and the
country gets fed up with them. It
doesn't always take that long, but
it rarely lasts longer than that.
It was getting too easy to take
pot shots at Mark Foley and Don-
ald Rumsfeld. Now that Rums-
feld has gone I'll have to work
for my money. He could always
be counted on for analogies to a
pit bull.
Chief among these new power
brokers will be Nancy Pelosi, a
congresswoman from California
who is poised to become the first
female Speaker of the House.
While Rumsfeld was a pit bull,
Pelosi is like one of those yap-
py little dogs that runs around
your ankles when you walk into
somebody's house. You know
the kind of dog I mean the irri-
tating kind that you secretly kick
under the sofa when their owner
isn't looking.
I have this feeling President
Bush would like nothing better
than to kick Nancy Pelosi under
the sofa. But I think she'll be bit-
ing at his ankles for a while be-
fore he gets the chance.
Speaking of the Prez, of


ipaign ads
course, I still have President Bush
and Vice President Cheney. They
aren't quite as much fun as Bill
Clinton and Al Gore, but they're
close.
Clinton and Gore were the Ab-
bot and Costello of politics. Clin-
ton would do something flam-
boyant and ridiculous and Gore
could be counted on to shake his
head and say something nobody
paid any attention to in the least.
This administration is more
like Laurel and Hardy. President
Bush is Stan Laurel who always
says and does the wrong stuff,
completely frustrating the blus-
tery Oliver Hardy like Dick
Cheney.

Board should

vote no on

Cedar Creek
Dear Editor:
Everyone needs to stand up
and call their county commis-
sioner. Tell them to vote "no"
on the re-zoning for the Cedar
Creek development off US 90 on
old Pine Top land.
The lot sizes at 70 X 100 feet
are too small, and 7000 houses
are too many for that area. They
will not benefit Baker County
folks, and we the taxpayers will
end up paying for this, dealing
with the traffic and crowded
schools. There will also be a
need for more law enforcement,
fire and rescue.
We need industry and jobs
more than we need these sub-
divisions. The county does not
need to get into the water and
sewer business. The developer
also wants the county to switch
out 25 acres bought with grant
money for ball parks for land
further back so they can have.
prime highway frontage.
The small town life as we
know it will no longer be here
for us or our children if this is ap-
proved. The zoning on that prop-
erty should be 10 AG as it is now.
Baker County citizens are losing,
and we will be paying for it the
rest of our lives if it is approved.

Storms house, arrests husband


The sheriff's department used
its special response team early
the morning of November 12 to
enter the east Macclenny resi-
dence of a woman officers feared
had been seriously injured by an
abusive husband.
As it turned out, 49-year-
old Judy McAndrew was lying
motionless on a bed because of
intoxication. Deputies had ob-
served her through a bedroom
window, and were also aware
that Kenneth McAndrew, 38,
was inside the residence on East,
Boulevard.
After several attempts were
made around midnight and short-
ly after to speak with Mr. McAn-
drew, the SRT was summoned
and about 1:30 am officers burst
through a rear door while Sgt.
Phil Duval broke through the
bedroom window. He found the
husband hiding near the window,
and he surrendered without inci-

jewelry is


worth $6K
A north Macclenny woman
claimed on November 12 that
someone took \t o je elrn items
valued at $6000 from her resi-
dence.
Carolyn Brantley said she had
not checked her jewelry box for
a week, and noticed when she
awakened that day a ring valued
at $2000 and necklace orth
$4000 were gone. Deputy\ Mark.
Hall noted in his report other
jewelry was stored in the box,
and. guns plus a box of loose
change in the same room were
untouched.
There was no sign of forced
entry at the North Lowder St..
residence.
Ms. Brantley named a trio of
suspects who had been staying
at the residence in recent weeks,
and the officer said all denied
knowledge of the theft
In another recent theft, some-
one took a pressure washer val-
ued at $1141 from a bam on
the former Higginbotham Dairy'
property off CR 229 south of In-
terstate 10.
The washer belongs to North,
Florida Reforestation of Lake
Butler, which is working on the
property. There was no sign of
forced entry through a combina-
tion lock gate, and the washer
was stored in a bam on a trailer
that was left there.
Brian Langford, a foreman em-
ployed by the contractor, told po-
lice the washer was taken between
October 30 and November 6.

dent.
Mr. McAndrew was booked
at county jail for violating an
earlier court order to stay away
from his wife. The couple has a
history of domestic violence and
alcohol abuse.
Sgt. Duval and Deputy Tony
Norman first went to the resi-
dence on a "well-being" check
just before midnight, and noted
Ms. McAndrew was unrespon-
sive to several knocks on the
bedroom window and to repeat-
ed loud announcements of the
officers' presence.
Her husband was observed
walking around the interior with
his shirt off, and likewise did not
acknowledge the deputies.
Shortly after 1:00 am the call
went out for the team, specially
trained to enter buildings during
tense hostage situations. .
In another domestic violence
case, Jaime Taylor, 19, of Sand-
erson reported on November
10 alleged physical and verbal
abuse at the hands of boyfriend
Alfred Godwin, 37, of Glen St.
Mary.
In an incident the victim
claims took place the morning
of November 6, she accused Mr..
Godwin of grabbing her leg and
arms, forcing her into his pickup
truck. Ms. Taylor said she had

Fire grants

worth $135K
The county's fire chief said on
Monday his volunteers at eight
stations \\ ill soonbe \\ hearing new
protective bunker gear, thanks to
a $135.000 federal grant.
The grant, announced by the
office of Congressman Ander
Crenshaw on November 13,
marks the second major funding
through the Assistance to Fire-
fighters grant program.
The money xill be used for
more up-to-date protection cloth-
ing for the. 85 volunteers cur-
rently serving at eight stations in
Baker County. Chief Dolan noted
49 of that total have successfully
completed'-certification classes;'
the remainder are in a number of
support positions.
Most of the gear is for use in
traditional fires; some is designed
for fighting brush fires.
The initial grant of $185,000
was spent on 46 air packs used
for oxygen supply while battling
house and other fires with haz-
ardous smoke.
Chief Dolan also recently
purchased an auxiliary truck
,now stationed at the Emergency
Operations Center in west Mac-
clenny. The $66,500 vehicle is
in service and intended for trans-
port of supplies to fire units.
The department financed its
purchase using funds equal to
the monthly payment on a fleet
of trucks recently paid off.
The grants program is funded
under homeland security and the
US Fire Administration.

Father Time'living up to his name
After years with circuit judges employing "swinging door" sentenc-
ings that often sent repeat probation violators back home, Judge David
Glant has recently been living up to his nickname "Father Time."
A tally by the Clerk of Courts office revealed six defendants in Septem-
ber going to prison for a total of 15 years and eight months.
The longest sentence was five years, the first phase of penalties for a
probation violator involved in a fatal traffic accident. The shortest was a
year and a half.
Things got a bit busier in October when 15 defendants were sent off
for a total of 61 years, eight months and three days. The longest sentence
was 20 years to a chronic probation violator who is only 21 years old. The
shortest sentence was a year and a day. Terms of less than one year are
served at county jail.
Judge Glant, who in the past has been vocal about his preference to sit
on the criminal bench in Baker County e% en though he lives more than an
hour a\v ay, \\ ill be re-assigned in January as part of the regular rotation.
He \\ ill be replaced by Judge Phyllis Rosier of Starke, recently appointed
to the bench. She has been handling ci6 il court in recent months.

Perhaps you sent a funeral

If so, we saw it there.
Perhaps you spoke the kind-

Perhaps you were not there at

Lady Cats beat Union County in


OT to sweep Tiger Tip-off Classic


BY BOB GERARD
Press Sports
After a couple years
struggling, the Lady Wildcat
basketball team finally has
something to smile about. The
girls defeated Union County
in overtime to win the Union
County Tiger Tip-off Classic
November 9 in Lake Butler.
Coach Franklin Griffis was
duly proud of the effort his girls
had put in to win the tourney. It
\ as proof that the hard %%orkthat
the\ had been putting in during
the off-season was beginning to
pay dividends.
The Lady Cats opened up the
tournament by defeating Fort
White on Nov. 7th in the first
round. The 44-36 win was led
by Brittany Ruise and Brittany
Hinson. The "Brittanys" tossed
in 12 points apiece to pace the
Wildcats. Deanna McKenzie
added 9 points and pulled down
10 rebounds. Destiny de la Pena
scored 7 points, and had 5 steals
in defense.
The Lady Cats led the game
from the opening tip. By the end
of a low-scoring first period,
they led the Indians 9-6 and
increased their lead to 18-12
at intermission. They kept a 7-
point edge at the end of the third
period.
The Cats went up against the
tournament hosts in the final on
Thursday night. The game was a
back and forth affair, which the,

BCHS Wildcat head basket-
ball coach Charles Ruise is fea-
tured in the this month's issue
of Teardrop Hoops, a magazine
about high school basketball on
the First Coast. Ruise authors
this month's Coaches Comer,
where area coaches discuss the
teaching aspect of the sport.
Coach Ruise focused on moti-
vation as one of the keys to suc-
cess.
"A good motivator will try
virtually anything ethically and
morally acceptable to reach his
or her athletes," Ruise comment-
ed.
Ruise added that motivators
aren't perfect and make a lot of
mistakes, but that it is worth the
effort because when a player is
properly motivated he becomes
a better overall player.
"In the final analysis, not try-
ing to motivate athletes is a far
more serious mistake than com-
mitting errors in trying to mo-
tivate athletes. You can always
learn from your mistakes as long
as those mistakes result from an
honest effort to improve yourself
or your team."

Hoops at their website, www.

. Cats led narrowly most of the
way. They went up 12-9 at the
end of the first, but the Tigers
trimmed the lead to a point,
with the Wildcats up 22-21 at
the half. BCHS pulled out ahead
to 5-point lead at the end of the
third period.
Union County switched to
full court pressure in the fourth
period and disrupted the Lady
Cats' rhythm. The Tigers forced
the game to overtime, where the
Cats regained control and held
off Union Count\ for.a 54-50
win.
The victory thrilled Coach
Griffis, who was particularly
pleased with the way the girls
held together under intense
pressure during the overtime
period.
"We kept our composure and
came out in OT and scored some
quick points," said Griffis. "We
got a few steals with our full
court pressure and held on to
win."
Ruise led the Cats with 16
points. De la Pena had 9 and
Kara Dupree 7 points. Caitlin
Griffis had 9 rebounds and Sarah
Trawick 4 blocked shots.
The "Brittanys" were both
selected to the All-Tournament
team and received plaques for
their efforts. Griffis was proud


of their pla\ and the work of the
team as a whole.
"I was very impressed with
their determination and how
they kept their composure
throughout a very. intense
game," said Griffis. "They have
worked hard in the off-seasonl
with their conditioning and
strength training and it paid off
in the overtime win."
The Lady Cats will host
West Nassau on Thursday at
the BCHS gym before traveling
to,Ynlee on Frida\. JV plays at
6:00 pm and.varsity at 7:30.

FARM-CITY Week
Nov. 20 at the Baker County Extension Office


Darryl Register is president of the Baker County Farm Bureau. He owns D&D Dairy in Glen St.
Mary. The Baker County Farm Bureau is hosting a Farm-City Lunch next week to recognize agricul-
tural contributions in Baker County and the strong partnership that exists between rural producers
and urban consumers. Agriculture is an important part of the economy in Baker County and the state
of Florida. As the number two industry in the state, agriculture creates jobs and provides billions of
dollars to the economy. In Baker County, there are 204 farms on 18,000 acres. Market sales totaled
about $25 million in 2002. Neither the farm nor the city can exist in isolation. Instead, the interde-
pendence of the two creates jobs, products, markets and relationships that make our economy and
nation strong. Join with us in recognizing Baker County agricultural producers and allied industries
and the contributions they make to the economy.

COUNTY PRESS, Thursday November 16, 2006 Page 11


Meyer is


maybe a bit


too tricky



FAT LADY
ROBERT GERARD
Sometimes a coach tries to be
too smart for his own good.
Ihadabad cold, sollay around
all Saturday watching football on
television. I watched the Gator
game from start to finish, which
is something I don't normally do
since I'm not a Florida fan.
As I watched the game, I be-
came more and more convinced
that Urban Meyer is too con-
cerned with style points. Again
and again, he would get into
scoring position through hard
1work and bread and butter plays,
then try to get too tricky.
Instead of pushing the ball up
the gut with Deshawn W\nn or
loss a little floater into the comer
to Bubba Caldw ell, he'd try a re-
verse or an end around and wind
up losing the edge.
It was as if he was try ing to
prove that he was smarter than
Ste\ e Spurrier. I'\e got news for
you, Urban. You aren't smarter
than "the Old Ball Coach." You
just have better athletes. So, use
your better athletes and let that
be that. Jarvis NMoss proved that
by blocking two field goals and
Spinning the game.
The Gators have been strug-
gling the past few\ games despite
\winning and their #4 rating in
the BCS poll. All my friends are
Gator fans and they do nothing
but complain. As a Seminole
fan, I've got plenty to complain
about. I'd be more than happy to
have one loss and in the race for
the national title.
But watching the Gators as a
neutral it seems plain to me they
are moving a\%ay from what they
are best at. They have an excel-
lent running back who can get
six to eight yards up the middle
on every play. But Nle\er \\ants
a player \"ho can bounce to the
outside, hit the corner and go. He
wants Adrian Peterson. But he's
got Deshaw'n W\Vnn.
He wants Alex Smith, but he's
got Chris Leak. Chris Leak was
on fire against South Carolina
throwing short-out passes and
little button hooks. But Meyer
was sour at halftime. Eventually
Meyer will be happy. He will
make over Tim Teboi into Alex
Smith. He will recruit an Adrian
Peterson-like back and run the
spread offense.
But for the time being, the Ga-
tors are struggling to fit into the
system. Meyer is a good enough
coach and has the athletes to
win, but it will be another two or
three years until he gets what he
wants.
Will the Gators be in the
championship game? Hard to
say. With Louisville, Texas, Cal
and Auburn losing this weekend
and Michigan and Ohio State
playing on Saturday, Florida
could conceivably be the #2 team
in the land.
Just don't try to outsmart
yourself, Urban.

owtrip 'Memory Lanc


BY KELLEY LANNIGAN
Press Staff
Among bright bunches of
balloons and confetti-strewn
tables, Flo Holloway stood
before a packed house during a,
recent meeting of the Macclenny
Woman's Club.
Ms. Holloway, along with
pianist Virginia Combs, lead the
ladies in a lively rendition of
'You Are My Sunshine" as part
of an informal training session
for the club's "A Trip Down
Memory. Lane" program .
For more than 30 years,
members of the Macclenny
Women's Club have delivered
an uplifting message of song
and spoken word through the
Memory Lane program, a
project of the club's Home Life,
division.
This lively one-hour
presentation of nostalgic music
and positive, often humorous
stories, poems and other
selected readings is presented
weekly at Wells Nursing Home


in Macclenny.
"You can't imagine %what this
program does for the residents."
said Phillis Rhoden, director of
nursing at W\ells.
"Alzheimer's patients -have
no-trouble remembering clearly
what happened 40 years ago.
Since they identify especially
with this music, the\ perk up
and join right in."
According to Ms. Rhoden,
nursing care facilities are now
mandated to provide this type
of nostalgic prog ranuning for
residents -
A Trip Down Memory Lane
was started at the Women's Club
in the mid-70s by the late Fay
Milton, Ms. Holloway's mother.
She continues the tradition today,
assisted b\ daughter Shelly Neri
and grandson Danny, making
Sthe program a real family affair.
Members of the Home Life
division may start the program
with patriotic songs such as
"God Bless America" and move
into \\ell loied tunes such as
"'Side b) Side" and "I'll Fly

Different ladies take turns
presenting scriptural readings,
poems, anecdotes and essays
such as "A Mother's Timeless
Wisdom."
Louise Whitt, a long time
member of the club, can be
counted on to tell a few rib-
tickling jokes.
There may also be a show-
and tell portion with members
bringing photos and inementos
of pets,or vacations to share with
nursing home residents.
"The benefit to the residents
is invalublfe,"" saysMs. Rhoden.,
"This type of programming is
worth its weight in gold. We are
so thankful to the Woman's Club
for providing it."
