Kynnes said Friday.
He advised the State Parole
Commission that loss of rivil rights
deprives a person of the right to
vote, the right to be a juror or

The loss of civil rights occurs
when the person is convicted, and
the conviú^i takes place when

Miss Menser, the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Denzie Menser,

learned in her project was how
to save money by using instant

how dairy foods help meet the
nutritional needs of each mem¬

Miss Menser has participated
in many dairy foods demonstra¬

By Patricia B. Feiler
Thanksgiving is truly a. family,
day. Many of our family members’
aims and goals of the year are1
brought closely together on Thanks

The family unit can take a little
time together to look ovel- their
blessings of the year—accomplish
meats, failures which turned out
for the best, little everyday joys,
and momentous happenings.

Arthur, son of Mr. and Mrs.
H. F. Webb, both of whom are
local 4-H leaders, won his hon¬
ors in the garden program spon¬
sored by the Allis-Chalmers
Manufacturing Company.
He has five brothers, four of
whom also are active in 4-H.
Club work. His gardening was
done on land loaned him by his
father. He has participated in
the garden program since 1960
and has learned new ways to
increase the yield of his plot as
well as ending up with a profit.
This netted him $60 in addi¬
tion to vegetables worth $46,
which his mother preserved.
Arthur says he has gained much
from his 4-H work aside from
dollars and cents. He has
learned to take responsibility,
made new friends and has en¬
joyed helping others with prob¬
lems.
Young Petty, son of Mr. and
Mrs. J. L. Petty, is a congress
trip winner in the electric pro¬
gram supported by the Westing-
house Educational Foundation.
He has worked for five years on
his electric projects and says,
“Each year I strive to do more,
teach more, and learn more
about electricity.â€
Among Petty’s interesting ex¬
periences was serving as stage
manager for a local dub, where
he had charge of amplifiers,
lighting and spotlights. He was
a recent delegate to the State

While it is occasionally being overlooked, the 19-64. Federal tax
reduction bill did a lot more for consumers and the economy than i
reduce taxes.
The bill initiated a comprehensive series of reforms that were
H badly needed and long delayed. These reforms
H touch everything from child-care to old-age
¡É benefits. And in every instance, these reforms
¡g will make cur fax laws more equitable.
H Consider, for example, the standard deduc-
S tion. Under the old law individuals could take-
f;| either a standard deduction of 10 per cent of
|| . adjusted-gross income or could take itemized
deductions on the long tax 'form.
This, meant that if a man with one dependent
was making $3,100 a year, his-standard deduc¬
tion under the old law could never exceed 10
that

$31 0. But under the' Ã964 tax

the profits from sale pi the fam-

In atldition, senior citizens

The new tax laws also provide
for tax relief when a worker
moves at least' 20 miles to take
a new-job. He will now be able
to deduct the cost of transport- ,
ing his household goods to the '

ing the: travel expenses of his

needed and should'be helpful.
Another group of taxpayers

bill are those whose prosperous
years alternate with lean, years.

Area's first subdivision was 8,500 years ago
BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
Nature lovers visiting
Manatee Springs State
Park last weekend had the
opportunity for more than
leisurely walks to the river
and woods. A wagon train ride
through the park took visitors
to historical re-enactor camps.
Park services specialist John
Lohde conducted the guided
ride through the park..
"This is a nice little oasis
of life in an otherwise dry
area. It is only 2,400 acres,
but it is an incredible little
piece of land," said Lohde.
"It is a dynamic environment.
Plants and animals have had
to adapt." He spoke of karst
geology with its sinkholes
and springs, plant and animal
residents and the park's
human history.
Of the area's plentiful
palmettos, he said they are
actually very slow-growing.
Grabbing a handful of bay
leaves, he said they were
often used by cooks to season
stews.
Hepointed out an ephemeral
pond. "These ponds have
wet and dry cycles," he said.
"They have no fishes but lots
of amphibians."
"We're seeing more
manatees this year than last
year," he said. He mentioned
that the hogs that roam the
woods are not native. They
were first brought in by the
Spaniards in the 1500s, and
the feral hogs are the result of
a union of wild animals that
have bred with domestic."
As far as people, the area
has been inhabited by humans
since before Moses. "We have
evidence of Indians living
here for 8,500 years." These
were before the Seminoles,
who were not originally from
Florida, had moved in..
The park itself opened in
1950. Lohde said the first
year 3,000 visitors came to
the park. Many of those early
park-goers bogged down in
the sand road that led to the
park's entrance.
One of the early visitors,
Mr. Ridley, conducted
archaeological work in the
park. "All evidence indicated
these Indians lived a pretty
easy life."
Hardy Americans settled
the area that is now the park
in the 1840s. Their story was
told by historical re-enactor
Toni Collins. In her role of
widow Maria Trespers, she
wove a story of an active and
vibrant settlement of the mid-
1800s.
Wearing a long burgundy
skirt, white shirt, black shawl
and carrying a basket, she
hitched a ride on the wagon
and enthralled modem-day
passengers with a life rich
in color and texture. "My
husband, George Trespers,
and I moved to the settlement
in 1847."
She spoke of plentiful
opportunities for settlers to
gain free land in the area.
Requirements included not
being allowed to settle land
within two miles of the coast.
"You see, even then they
were concerned about the
shoreline." She said others
bought land on the cheap:
"Isaac Hardee built the first
board house in Levy County
after buying the land for $1.25
an acre in 1860." The Isaac
Hardee house is now held by
the Tri-County Marine Corps
League.
She spoke of the Suwannee
River as a water turnpike.
'The Orpheus brings our
mail. She's a stem-wheel
paddle steamboat with 18
luxury staterooms."
After Mrs. Trespers
debarked, the wagon took
visitors to a Seminole hunt
encampment, where they saw
Indian women outside their
chickee, or thatched roof
structure, cooking tasty corn
broth.
Upcoming activities for
park visitors include manatee
awareness programs every
weekend in January.

Janet Hazard dies at 89
Janet Lee Hazard was born Aug. 21, 1917 of Ignacious
Leewicki and Mildred Kowal, in Chicago, Ill., and was a
resident of Chiefland since 1982.
Raised in Wicker Park and Buck Town neighborhoods, she
attended St. Aloyisius Elementary School and Josephenum
High School. She was the fourth youngest of nine brothers
and sisters whom she survived: Jewel Lee (oldest), Marie ,
Heckman, Frank Lee, Andrew Lee, Stanley Lee, Rose Lehigh,
Gene Lee, Henrietta Jackson and Robert Lee (youngest).
She is survived by her daughter, Ellen Hazard of Illinois,
her nephews Robert Lee of Illinois, Gene Hazard of Wisconsin
and Dennis Lee of California and her nieces, Michaelina Lee
of California, Joanne Hazard and Cynthia Lee both of Illinois.
It could be said, however, that she raised many children,
including younger sisters and brothers, nieces and nephews,
Ellen's best friends and neighborhood children.
Anyone who knew Janet knew she always met life on her
terms. She embarked on her life's adventures at 15, going as
far as her money would take her with a one-way ticket from
Chicago to Aurora, Ill..
Wanting to see more of the world, she joined the United
States Army in ithe '1940s where she obtained her GED
and began her.profession as a photographer, a joblshe
pursued because the hours were flexible. (Something of an
accomplishment in itself, as anyone who has endured the
rigors of a military regimen can attest to).
"It was fun to rub elbows with the general, too," she
would declare. Having toured much of the U.S., Janet was
honorably discharged from her final post in Alaska, what was
then still a territory. She loved her time in Alaska, where she
worked as a lifeguard instructor in Juneau, earned her Second
Class Airmen's license, and was a member of the Alaskan
Prospectors Society at Fort Richardson, Elmendorf Field,
Alaska.
Janet returned home to Chicago in the mid 1950s. There she
developed her career industrial photography and married her
childhood friend, Gilbert Zelazek Hazard. Several years later
her sister Rose died and left to Janet's care her two children,
Gene and Joanne, whom she adopted. Then she cared too for
her niece and nephew, Michaelina and, Robert. When Ellen
arrived not long after, she became a full-time mom. She was
a great mom at that.
Janet was bereaved of Gil in 1980; two years later she
moved next door to her sister Marie, at Manatee Springs. She
held a presence in the area as always ready to help people in
need, with special attention to children. In spite of debilitating
mental, pulmonary and heart diseases that marked her final
years, Janet endeavored to keep her independence. Through
hard work, self discipline, and strong will, and with the help
of dear friend, Karen Fishbaugh, she persevered. Janet died in
the peace and comfort of her home on Nov. 17, 2006.
Janet will be remembered for her bright smile, ready
laughter, intelligent conversation, and unwavering loves of
man and nature.
A joint memorial service (we prefer to call it a celebration
of life) was held for Janet and her friend, Margaret Becker, on
Thanksgiving Day.
Arrangements were under the care of Hiers Baxley,
Chiefland.

I NEAL FISHER
LEVY COUNTY JOURNAL
From the 'Things I Ponder' list
Last week, our fearless editor,
Carolyn, mentioned in her column
long and unusual hours are part of
the job description for an editor. However,
what she didn't mention was in those long
hours there comes plenty of opportunities
for random thoughts and the possibilities
to notice things that might a person think'
why?
As a sports reported I often think about
things along these lines as I drive home
after a long day and night at the office or
when I am sitting at my desk after finishing
that last article on deadline.
So, without further ado, I present my first
"things that make me ponder" list.
And in the spirit of Thanksgiving and
Christmas, I think it is time for me to print
my, it would make me quite grateful and
peaceful if the powers that be just didn't do
them, because they seem so useless to me.
1) While I find the story of Jimniy
Johnson winning his first Nextel Crown
this year very satisfying, especially in light
of the tragic plane crash that took the lives
of 10 family members and friends of Rick
Hendricks racing two years ago, do we
really need to attack the words finally and
after so may close finishes.
Johnson has been racing in the series
for only four years. Those are words that
describe Bobby Allison winning his only
title in 1983 after 18 years of trying or
Dale Earnhardt capturing his Daytona 500
victory in his 20th attempt.
2) When is the NFL going to wake up
and realize the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
aren't very good and start scheduling
them accordingly? Including this year,
they haven't won more than six games in
three of the last four years, let alone the
playoffs. So why did the NFL think their
match-up against Dallas'on Thanksgiving
be competitive?
3) Speaking of the Buccaneers, after
being run out of town, perhaps Tony Dungy
wasn't such a bad coach after all.
4) After beating Colorado by two
touchdowns in a game that probably
should have been won by a bigger score,
why did Nebraska make them their "big
rival"? After almost a decade of meeting
Oklahoma in the last game of the season
and the game having a huge influence on
the national championship, what was wrong
with the rivalry? Especially considering
the person who was the most adamant
about it, is no longer at Colorado.
5) Speaking of Colorado, do you think
their coach Dan Hawkins is reconsidering
taking the job? His former team, Boise
State went 12-0 and will be playing in a
BCS bowl.
6) When exactly did the tie-in between
the Orange Bowl and the Big 12 end? And
when and why did the Big 12 champion

Aw I
start going to the Fiesta Bowl? After almost
80 years of the Big 12 champion having a
tie-in with the Orange Bowl, why was there a
'need to change it?
7) Can we please stop complaining about
the BCS, it does what it is supposed to. It
determines the two best teams and places
them in a championship game. Lest I remind
the fans, when there is more than one team
who has a legitimate claim to playing in it,
the argument is the same for any team who
doesn't get chosen and only two teams can
play in one game.
8) When will college administrators and
the powers admit if their football coaches
don't beat the "big rival", they get fired.
Case in point: Mike Shula, who was fired
from the Alabama head-coaching job
yesterday. He was 0-4 against Auburn. Case
in point 2: John Cooper, who was 1-9 against
Michigan during his time at Ohio State. Do
you think Lloyd Carr is starting to sweat? He
is 1-5 against Ohio State since Jim Tressel
became the head coach of the Buckeyes.
9) Speaking of college football coaches,
when will they learn to avoid taking a job
after a legend? Case in point: Alabama again
(Bear Bryant), Michigan (Bo Schembechler),
and Ohio State (Woody Hayes).
10) Are we paying more attention to Tony
Romo, because he has magically lifted the
Dallas Cowboys to "the best team in the
NFC" status in five starts or because he
supposedly is dating Jessica Simpson?
11) When will coaches, whether great or
mediocre, stop hiring their sons? You can't
fire them and if they are successful, they are
constantly being told they are not as good as
their father. Do the names JeffBowden, Skip
Holtz and Jay Paterno mean anything to the
coaching fraternity?
12) Finally, when will owners realize that
because a players grfat, it doesn't mean '1"
he has the ability to work as an executive?
-A'fterfrve years of futility, doesanyone really
think the Lions are going to get better with
Matt Millen as their general manager?
And just to show I do have thoughts about
items other than sports, here are a couple
more questions to ponder.'
1) Why do television companies announce
all new episodes when a show is in its first
year? If a show is iin its first year, of course,
the episodes have never been seen before.
2) Why do people refer to a person's death
as untimely? When is a person's death
timely?
S3) When a medicine company advertises a
great new product, they always seem to have
possible side effects like drowsiness, sore
throats and palpitations. And why are those
kinds of symptoms only "side effects"?

Cooper found himself
buttoning up the fire suit and

night of racing. -
After winning the heat race
and finishing second in the
feature contest, the passion
he had for the sport when
he was in high school was
rekindled. He would win the
last five races of the season at
Ocala Speedway.
Since then he has run
in just about every series
Florida offers, but has settled
on the Gulf Coast Series for
the time being after a top five
BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
Bronson might be a small
undiscovered town to most,
but with racer Robbie Cooper
rising through the ranks of
Florida's motor sports that
could soon change. .
After racing during his
high school days, he decided
to return to the asphalt and
concrete of Florida's tracks
full time five years ago and
hasn't looked back since
then.
2006 marked his most
successful season to date as
he placed fourth in the Gulf
Coast Modified
Series and won
several races
in other series.
Included among
his other wins
this past season
were victories
at Orlando
Speedworld in
the FASCAR
series and a
triumph at
Columbia
Motorsports Park in Lake
City driving a sportsman
machine.
"I like the sport because
it is a self disciplined sport,
Cooper said. "Nobody is
going to get in your face like
other sports. Either you do
what you need to do to get
better or you don't get better,
because there is nobody there
to make sure you do the
things you need to do. There
is so much opportunity to
succeed if one is willing to
work hard.
"And of course I love the
adrenaline. It is a lot like a
roller coaster. There is also
the challenge of making the
car befe&. '-?Thatis ''18tf ik6
a puzzle, you have to keep
trying until you find the right
combination and that takes
self-discipline."
The journey began five
years ago when one of
Cooper's friends needed help
with his racing engine. While
working on the engine, the
friend harassed him to drive
one of his cars he wasn't
running at Ocala Speedway.
After a rather lengthy period
of time being harassed,
At the age of 36 Cooper
realizes the fame and fortune
of racing in a national series
might never come his way,
but looking at his biography
it is easy to understand why
he has been successful up to
this point in his career.
Born in New Castle
Indiana, Cooper came to
Florida before he celebrated
his first birthday when the
company his father worked
for transferred him. He
spent portions of his youth
in Ocala, Morriston and
Williston before settling in
Bronson during his middle
school days.
After graduating from high
school he served a six year
stint in the Marines, rising to
the rank of Sergeant.
"I think serving in the
Marines helpedme as a racer,"
Cooper said. "Like I said,
racing is a self-disciplined
sport and you can't get
through boot camp or receive
promotions without having it.
The self-discipline I needed
in the Marines carried over
into starting my business and
then into my racing career."
After his time in the service
he moved back to Bronson
pancontinp e tq,live in the
house he grew up in. When
he moved back he opened
up Bronson Lube. It is a
full service automobile shop
ranging from mechanical
repairs to towing assistance
via wrecker.
"I started offwith nothing,"
Cooper said. "The wreckers
really supported the shop
until I got some money and
stability. When we started
to get some money, we were
able to renovate the shop and

"He is very adaptable and

of Jimmy Cope Racing and

lot of people don't take what
you say to heart. But when
somebody like Robbie does,
it makes my job a lot easier.
"He is an absolute

duck in water at a racetrack.
He just adapts to it. That is
the mark of a good racer. He -
has. won his share of races,
because he has "the same
attitude win or lose."
'Cope's brother introduced
him to Cooper. Following
a racing crash, the brother
hoped Cope could fix
Cooper's badly damaged
machine.. What was left of
the once sleekly lined piece of
machinery was a lost cause,
but out of that first meeting
a friendship and business
relationship developed that
continues as strong as ever to

Indians start season with win over Seven Rivers
BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
After a run of seven
consecutive post season
appearances the Indians have
fallen on hard times, but with
the attitude of "new season,
new era" they could be
dancing again in March.
Admittedly, head coach
Dennis Webber sees it as a
situation where everything
Should have to go the Indians
way, but after last season's
'7-17 campaign, the roster is
loaded with good athletes.
"We are in something of
a. rebuilding phase, but we
have good players this year,"
Webber said. "They need to
develop, but we have some
quickness and they are good
Athletes. That is something a
i program can always build off
Sof.
"I think the possibility
to develop quick enough to
make the playoffs this year
is possible, but it is more
probable that when the year
'ends I will be saying, I know
where the program has been
:and I know where we have
to go. If we can improve on
:last year's record and see the
players, continue to develop,
it will be a good year."
Leading the way is a quartet
of returning varsity players,
guard Amp Henry, center
SRyan Sprawling, guard Lester
-Jackson and guard/forward
Jairus Wimberly.
After playing on last year's
Junior varsity squad, guard
SReggie McClendon, forward/
center Tommy Sheffield,
guard Mike Durr, forward
Daniel Galpin and forward
'Steven Davis get the call to
put on the varsity uniforms.

** .,!*,rt ,; -?' qf o)'A wJ
but it came in an
unexpected form
as both Wimberly
i and Davis are
ineligible to
play until late
December.
The team got its
first look at how
far it has come and
how far it has to go
on Monday as the
Indians opened
its 2006-2007
campaign with a
43-35 victory over
Seven Rivers.
Trailing 21-
9 at halftime
the team took a
tongue lashing
from Webber and
responded with a
big 'second half.
They scored the
first six points of
the third quarter
and then after a
basket by Seven
Rivers upped the
visitors' lead to
eight, the Indians
went on a 17-4 run
to take the lead.
Holding a 32-
27 lead the team
exchangedbaskets
with Seven Rivers
the rest of the
way to claim their
first victory of the
season.
"We didn't do
anything in the
first half," Webber
said. "We (the
coaches) made
Journal photo by Neal Figervery clear at halftime
they didn't do anything and
Webber's halftime needed to start playing in our
erked up and shut system. The system creates a
q the 21-9 deficit. strong, defense and turnovers
and when they started to do
it, we began to cut into the
lead. It was the defense that
made it happen.
"We (the coaches) told
Sheffield he could be our
garbage man. We need
somebody to get those
rebounds. They were getting
a lot of second and third
opportunity baskets. When
we' stopped that, Seven
Rivers wasn't scoring as
much. I am proud .of the
kids for coming back, but we
had two technicals. That is
unacceptable and we need to
improve our attitude."
The Indians showed their
defense can be extremely
powerful when it is played
with intensity and focus
as they went to a full court
diamond press against Seven
Rivers. Look for them to use
their speed and quickness on
defense throughout the season
as Coach Webber expects
the team to use a variety of
presses and zone. Among
them is a 1-3-1 man defense
and a full court trap.
"The team is not big,"
Webber said. "We are about
average size, but we have
some quickness and once
again good athletes who can
wear opponents down with
their conditioning, so we will
try to match our size with our
opponents."
That means the Indians will
try to score off of transition
plays and by slashing to
the basket. He likened his
players to those often found at.
Midwest schools like Indiana,
Ohio State, Wisconsin and
Michigan. He also stressed
it is essential for the Indians
to run their half court offense
1 ;-
when they cannot score off of
transition play.
The coach was referring
specifically to the team
improving on their ability
to set up screens, cutting to
the basket and rotating as
the season continues. Also
the team needs to learn that
when the offense is run to
its conclusion they will get
better shots and looks at the
basket.
The team will be tested
throughout the season as
they are in one of the state's
strongest districts with P.K.
Yonge, Williston, Newberry,
Ft. White and Dixie County.
Along with Newberry, Taylor
County will provide the
Indians with an extremely
physical opponent.
For the last nine years
the Indians have played
basketball under the
philosophy of defense creates,
offense,, when they had the
athletes and talent it took
them a long way.
However, their record the
last few years might suggest
otherwise, but with an
extremely athletic team this
year, they might just steal a
few victories to get into the
state playoffs and prove that
philosophy to be true again.
It wasn't a masterpiece, but
their win in their opening
game is a good start to that
end.

JV Indians scalp Seven Rivers Iada'leshow 1
L,1-,adwV,-+ailes'so
BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
The purpose of the
Chiefland Indians' Junior
Varsity boys' basketball team.
is to prepare the athletes
to play at the varsity level.
However, a good won-loss
record has always been
something a program can rest
its laurels on.
With that said, the Indians
opened their season last
Monday night with a grind it
out, methodically overwhelm
the opponent, 45-16 victory
over Seven Rivers.
"Of course we hope and
want to do better than the
record we had last year,
(5-13), but we are here to
develop the fundamentals the
players will need to play at
the varsity level,"'head coach
Mark Lundy'said.
"A lot of these guys have
never played at this level
before and I was pleased with
what they did tonight. They
still have some work to do,
but considering it was the
first game for them, it was
something we can build on."
Led by Marquis Jackson,
the team began the game
with two consecutive baskets
before Seven Rivers answered
with a free throw. The Indians
pressure defense and quick
hands led to several turnovers
as Chiefland rolled to a 7-1
lead at the end of the first.
They extended it 13 points
at halftime and finished off
the visitors with a 20 point
explosion in the final stanza.
SJacksonledtheteamwith 13
points and several key assists
to give the other shooters easy
looks at the basket. Daniel
Webb complimented the high
scorer with nine points of his
own.
"I am proud of the guys'
work ethic and it showed
tonight," Lundy said. "We
will have tougher games, but
they really did a good job for
the season opener tonight.
"They were unselfish and
*played really good defense.
"Those are the things that
win ball games. We still
need to work on playing
smarter in critical situations,
but they showed some good
fundamentals."
With the victory under
their belts the team shows the
promise of having a roster

Klug wins on the links under new format
BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
CHIEFLAND-With a new change in its format and scoring,
the Chiefland Women's Golf.Association's annual handicap
tournament kicked off last week.
In order to make the tournament fairer and put more
emphasis on its play in every round, the association changed
from its winner-loser bracket format to a double elimination
system with winners determined by match play.
The results were some exciting and formidable play,
including a sudden death shootout, an upset among its top
four seeds, four first round matches being determined by one
stroke and all eight contests ending with a difference of no
more than five shots.
"The first round was really exciting, which is what we
wanted when we changed the format and scoring system,"
Marilee Leonard, the president of the association said; 'It really
puts a premium on-giving the golfers with higher handicaps
the opportunity to win and adVance.
"And it really makes the golfers with lower handicaps have
to play their best. They are at a disadvantage and it says
something when they win. It makes for some great competition
and it was an interesting first round. Playing in the tournament
really added to the enjoyment of the holidays."
With the change in its format, it produced the results
expected as three of the eight lower seeds won and advanced
to the winner's bracket. Perhaps, the biggest benefactor of
the new system was Nancy Klug as she claimed victory over
the second seeded Leonard.
Maggie Knapp and Mary Lindsey were the two other higher
seeds that lost. The three will now have to win the tournament
by coming through the loser's bracket.
Among the highlights of the first round was Fran Ice's 50-
foot chip-in birdie on the first hole. It set the tone for the
match and her opponent, Knapp, had trouble recovering and
never quite got into a rhythm.
Ruth Baker did the same on the fifth hole in her match. It
gave her a big boost and began a roll of pars and birdies over
the latter half of her match, leading to victory.
Barbara Ahola held serve with her top seed by putting for
two birdies on the second and seventh holes.
Leonard and Klug played a nip and tuck affair, which was
finally decided on the 18th hole. Entering the final hole tied,
Klug pulled out the victory by getting the ball to drop two
strokes sooner.
For all of its excitement, the tournament waited for its
last match to put the panache on its first round. With Freida
Martin and Betty Altieri tied after finishing the 18 holes, they
played a sudden death shootout.
Altieri, with an excellent read on her putt, won the hole by
a stroke and was declared the winner of their match.
"This format of double elimination and match play was
definitely more in your face," Leonard said. "But it was a
lot more fun for everyone. We have a great group of women
and it was something everyone could participate in and be a
part of.
"Everyone has a better chance of winning and it takes away
the unfairness of having a winners and loser's bracket. It
helps with the camaraderie and gives our new members a way
to spend time with the other golfers. The highlights definitely
made it worth changing."
SMatch play means the victor is determ~ edWby who inms
the most holes. Double elimination means each golfer is
allowed to lose two matches before being eliminated from the
tournament.
After the excitement of the first round, the association plans
on continuing with this year's changes in the future.
The winner's name will be added to the plaque hanging
in the entrance of the clubhouse and will receive a monetary
prize on the last day of seasonal play in May.

Williston's Lady Devils take to the court
BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
WILLISTON-11/20 The
Lady Devils used a tight
defense and their ability to box
on out on the offensive end to
turn a three point deficit at the
end of the first quarters into a
16 point halftime lead. They
continued to rely on what has
become the hallmark of this
year's team, increasing the lead
to 23 points halfway through
the third quarter. They then
held off a furious rally by the
Rock before falling by three
points. The Rock was able to
mount the rally when the Lady
Devils lost their intensity and
allowed the home team to get
some easy baskets.
However, the tight defense
and good boxing out forced the
Rock's ball handlers to pick up
their dribble and blocked their
line of sight, which led to bad
decisions and a lack of passing"
options. Easy transition
baskets for the Lady Devils
ensued. When the Lady Devils
*Cooper
focus more on racing.
There were times during
the early years when I had
everything packed up to go
racing and then I got a call for
the wrecker.
"So, I couldn't go to the
race, because I had to do what
paid the bills. But now that
we have some stability and
growth I have people who
can hold down the fort. It is
really rewarding to be able to
race now and it is great for
me, because when the green
drops it's a nice release from
work. I just have a total love
for the sport."
Cooper also feels racing
has helped him get closer
J ,
were forced into their half
court offense, they continued
to get high percentage shots
with' their second and third
.chance opportunities. Ciearra
led the way with 26 points and
her 10 rebounds were essential
to the second and third chance
baskets on the offensive end.
Margaret Brown added 18
points.
11/21 After seeing a 23
point lead reduced to three,
the Lady Devils came into this
game determined not to let
it happen again. Their goals
were to hold Interlachen to as
Sfew field goals as possible and
keep their intensity for the full
four quarters. They did not
disappoint as they opened the
game with a 20-2 run and never
looked back. Inspired by the
near debacle the night before,
the team caused an abundance
of turnovers using their half
court trap and full court press,
leading to easy baskets and a
quick lead which kept growing.
Margaret Brown came up big
to his family. He is married
to Angelia and the couple
has a daughter, Kellie, 14
He is very grateful for their
support, their decision to
become interested in the sport
and their presence at all of the
races he competes at.
Speaking of family, his
father, Tom Cooper, was also
an influence on what would
eventually become a passion
for racing. The older Cooper
was a well known racer
and car owner himself who
moved into the announcing
booth after his retirement
from competition.
Among the men he looks
up to is Zephyr Hills' racer
The other two starters are Eric Ruland and Daniel Webb.
Like the varsity team, the squad showed their defense can
be extremely powerful when it is played- with intensity and
focus.
Also like the varsity, look for them to use their speed and
quickness on defense throughout the season as Coach Lundy
expects the team to use a variety of presses and zones. Among
them is a 1-3-1 man defense and a full court trap.
"Our goal is to see improvement in our players as the
season progresses," Lundy said. "I think we got off to a good
start tonight. I tell the players there are no district titles or

again, this time accounting for
22 points. Portia Brown and
Angel Floyd came up big as
well, combining for 40 points
as the Lady Devils began the
season with a 4-0 mark.
After winning theii first
two games, the Lady Devils
continued their good start as
they took two more victories
and upped their record to 4-
0. With Coach Jason Odom
stressing defense, creating
turnovers and rebounding, the
team is beginning to show the
characteristics of a consistent
winner.
"It was important we got off
to the 4-0 start," Odom said.
"The team went from not even
being sure what its aspirations
were to a very confident squad.
They have a positive attitude
and feel they can play and win
with anyone. We are heading
into the meat of our schedule
and district play and we will
need it."
Theteam takes on district foes
Chiefland and Ft. White with'
rival Hawthorne sandwiched
in between. The team then
will have three more district
games to start December. It
could be a make or break for
the first year coach's squad.
Coming into this stretch with a
4-0 record will be decisive in
their preparation.
However, the team is. still
struggling with their offense
and free throws. It wasn't as
important an issue in their first
four games as it will be during
this upcoming stretch of six
games. .
"We are executing the
offense well enough to put up
points, but it is not being used
to all of its potential," Odom
said. "They players don't
always see beyond the second
and third options and they have
to be patient to do that. That
will important against our next
few opponents, because they
can make us pay for it."
The defense and transition
game has been the cornerstone
of their undefeated start and
it should .continue to keep the
Lady Devils in games, if they
are struggling with the half
court offense.,
They have proven they
can rebound, block shots and
create turnovers with a tenacity
and focus few can. Odom
is pleased with their ability
to see the big picture when it
comes to defense and making
second and third offensive
opportunities for themselves.
They aware of the changes,
it requires on that end of the
court and what it fully can do.
With the players buying into
the first year coach's belief in
his system built on defense and
rebounding, the team should be
a 'challenge for any opponent.
As they head into their
upcoming district games, the
question is have they learned
from the game that almost got
away and do they have enough
offense to win games in the
final seconds?

Cooper mentioned the
Zephyr Hills' native, because
after many years of paying
his dues in the state of Florida
he got the call to come to the
big show when he was also in
his mid-thirties.
Growing up in.the '70s and
'80s, Cooper also developed
affection for the drivers of that
era. In his opinion, drivers
like Dale Earnhardt, Richard
Petty, David Pearson,. Cale
Yarborough, Terry Labonte
and the Allisons, had to
earn their way into the show
through hard work and by
driving their heart out.
So while Levy County
might not have an abundance
of men who make left-handed
turns on the concrete and
asphalt, with Robbie Cooper

a steel and metal chassis
the area's quality is sure to
remain high for many years
to come.

the fundamentals they need to play at the varsity level. We
don't want them to sit at the varsity level. "
Among the goals Lundy works on with the players are
dribbling, ball handling and free throws.

the Week
Selected by

Margaret Brown:
Williston Basketball
After starting the season
with a 2-0 mark, the Lady
Devils kept the train rolling
with victories over The
Rock and Interlachen.
Leading the way to
another two victories was
Margaret Brown. Scoring
a combined 40 points for
the two games, she led the
Lady Devils in scoring and
was invaluable in taking a
leadership role. With the
undefeated start the team
has gained confidence as
they enter district play
and are getting more
accustomed to their first
year coach and the new
system he has brought to
the program.
Brown, a senior, has
been an integral part of
providing the Lady Devils
with their two biggest
concerns entering the
season.

Buses are now unstuffed
At the new Teacher Depot, it took less than
90 minutes for 58 teachers from seven schools
in Bronson, Chiefland and Williston to "un-
stuff" the buses of school supplies collected
by the Levy County School Foundation in the
first "stuffthe bus" project.
Thousands of dollars of items were donat-
ed by local businesses and individuals to re-
duce the "out-of-pocket expenses" of teach-
ers. A teacher arriving 45 minutes after, the
door opened noted, "Great idea, but the early
bird gets the worm. There just wasn't enough'
to go around."
Keith Stewart of Morriston, chairman of
the project said, "We plan to make collection
a year round event and cash donations are es-
pecially helpful for bulk purchasing."
The school district is providing a building
for storage so anytime during the year,, busi-
nesses or individuals that have items to donate
may call the foundation, 486-5231 to have the
items picked up. Out of date printed materi-
als, cups, pencils, replaced computers, print-
ers and other items can be used by teachers.
In addition to the "Teacher Depot", the
Levy County School Foundation is compos-
ing a "wish list" for teachers on the founda-
tion website-digital cameras and printers,
world globes are among the items.
Log on to www.levyschoolsfoundation.org
or LCSF@levy.kl2.fl.us to see the many pro-
grams of the foundation and access the wish
list.
KEITH STEWART, chairman of Stuff
the Bus, top, assists teachers in lo-
cating school supplies at the Teach-
er Depot. Arnett Hall, right, of Hilltop
is one of the first to arrive to collect
items.

FAVOR begins wildlife walks Monday
On Dec. 4 there will be a Bird, Plant and Wildlife walk at
the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge beginning at
9 a.m.
By participating you will learn a little bit about the treasure
that is your National Wildlife Refuge.
The birds that winter here are arriving. There are a few wild
flowers still blooming for the hardy butterflies that make their
home in your refuge.
The Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge is protect-
ed habitat for many species of birds and other wildlife and
plants. The habitat is diverse consisting of cypress swamps,
upland hardwood and some planted pines. The planted pines
are gradually being harvested to restore the native habitat.
Many animals live here but are not always in places where
we can see them.
Join the fun the first Monday of every month in the new
year starting with Feb. 5 and continuing until May,
For information call Joan Stephens at 352-463-1095.

CFCC given place to call its own
Tis the Season
BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
County students looking
for a campus to call their
own may not have to wait too
much longer. Chiefland's Loy
Ann and Jack Mann donated
15.4 acres of land to Central
Florida Community College.
The college board of direc-
tors, meeting Nov. 28, mo-
tioned to accept the couple's
donation.
The donated property is
located approximately four
miles from the city limits
and is adjacent to the Nature
Coast State Trail just north of
county route 346.
The college currently leas-
es a suite of offices and class-
rooms at the corer of Rodg-
ers Boulevard and Highway
19. They have been at that site
since 1993. The current lease
expires next September.
The new campus will re-
quire several major steps be-
fore ground can be broken.
Said CFCC trustee Bob Hast-
ings, "We will need to raise a
substantial amount ofmoney."
He said a team would need to
be formed and plan created
before proceeding with the
fund-raising.
He said, "A campus could
be open in two to three years,
depending on the communi-
ty's level of commitment."
Board member Bob Hast-
ings said he was making the
motion to accept the land,
"because it is such a wonder-
ful opportunity." Carol Sulli-
van seconded his motion.

fifth-grade classrooms in
Florida to showcase their
artistic talents by creating
posters reflecting the theme
"Trees are terrific... and for-

the importance of planting
and caring for trees.
"Trees are, vital to us all,
and we need to share their
history and grandeur with fu-
ture generations," says John
Rosenow, president of The
National Arbor Day founda-
tion. "Through this contest,
students have the opportunity
to learn about the environ-
mental benefits of trees and
develop and appreciation of
trees and what they provide
us."

ers in Florida can sign up by
