As of Monday, a convicted
felon will have some new
charges to add to his long rap
sheet involving battery, drugs,
traffic violations, burglary and
weapons offenses.
Joseph Woodcock, 43, of
Lake Panasoffkee, refused to
come out of his house when
law enforcement officers
attempted to arrest him,
resulting in a situation that
had law enforce-
ment surrounding
his house for four
hours, according to
Capt. Gary
Brannen of the
Sumter Sheriff's
Office.

personnel, Brannen said. ,

Brannen said officers com-
municated with Woodcock,
who they feared to be suicidal,
based on some of his com-
ments. Woodcock's wife alert-

were large amounts of pre-

he said.
Brannen said he did not

officers.
When communication with
Woodcock was lost, the SWAT

the home, and
Woodcock came out

she moved there last year.

Next year, for the first time
ever, Sumtein County will be
receiving a new county
administrator.
The new administrator will
be replacing Bernard Dew,
who's been working for the
county for over 30 years. Dew
told the county commission at
a June 14 board meeting he
plans to retire July 1, 2006.
Before he became adminis-
trator, Dew served four years


in the United States Air Force
and worked in the clerk of cir-
cuit court's office while
attending college in the early
1970's.
When Dew began his tenure
in 1983 as the first county
administrator, he said Sumter
was "fairly laid-back and
much more rural."
The said what he misses
most about those days is
because of the smaller popu-
lation, he got to "know most
people (in the county) in some
way."
Even so, Sandee Howell


says through the years she has
hardly ever seen Dew turn
someone who came to see him
away, employee or otherwise.
Howell has worked with
Dew since 1975. and when the
county administrator's office
was created, she took the posi-
tionofassistant county admin-
istrator, and has held the posi-
tion ever since. '
"Bernard is. a very, very
kind person and very thought-
ful of people," she said. "I
think that's one quality no one
will ever be able to replace."
But after so many years of


service and hard work, "he
deserves a good retirement."
Howell said. "It's going to be a
big change for all of us who
work here."
County Commissioner Jim
Roberts, who has worked with
Dew as a commissioner for six
years and known him person-
ally for another 10, said Dew
has had an excellent career.
"He has served the county
for a long time and we're
going to miss him. He does a

Pan and friends fly in for fun Man gets gator


BRENDA LOCKLEAR
Staff Writer

It was a raving success and
an absolute blast for stu-
dents, teachers and the audi-
ence.
Peter Pan, Tink, Tiger Lilly
and the entire crew flew into
Webster Elementary School
last month, as Nicole
Turner's second-grade class
took the stage for their pres-
entation of Peter Pan.
Starlet mom Missy
Adkinson helped with scene
changes.
"The costumes were great
and the scenery was wonder-
ful," she said. '"All the kids
knew their lines and worked
very hard. It was a great'
experience for the kids."
Adkinson's daughter,
Kristal, said, "Mrs. Turner let
us do a play because we did-
n't get to go on a field trip.
Our class loved the movie
Peter Pan and we all wanted
to do it. It was really fun."
"The performance was
incredible. The play had
beauty, adventure, and come-
dy. The action flowed perfect-
ly. The cast gave a profes-
sional performance and
made every character believ-
able. I was totally impressed
,nd my students and I
enjoyed it thoroughly," said
teacher Lynn Thomas.
Teacher Wendi Robison
helped make the scenery,
played the mom and even
donated her real dog Bingo
for the play. Bingo is a
spaniel mix.
Robison said she was more
than happy to help Turner,
adding that Turner. "Did a
fabulous job."
She said Turner, the kids
and all the helpers put the
entire thing together in four
weeks, from start to finish.
"It was really good."
"She's so organized and
she's just wonderful."'
Turner interned at Webster
Elementary and has since
taught both kindergarten and
second grade. She's been a
teacher for the past two'
years.
Robison has a history with
drama presentations at the
school. She was half of a
team that used to put togeth-
er annual performances, but
notes that the focus has
become so strong on FCAT
testing that it's impossible to
put together a major per-
formance on such limited
time.
, Robison said giving a child
a chance to do a theatrical
performance can bring out
things in that child that they
didn't even realize they were
capable of.
She said bringing out those
hidden talents is something'
she thrives for.

Provoking and handling an
alligator can obviously be
very dangerous, but it can also
land you behind bars. A
,Wildwood man learned that
lesson the hard way last
Tuesday, June 14, when he
tangled with an alligator and

ended up in the hospital.
Between 10 and 11 that
evening; an alligator between
* 7 and 8 feet in length was spot-
ted walking across the park-
ing lot of the Economy Inn in
Wildwood. That's when wit-
nesses say 43-year-old
as William Benjamin Evans, a
as four-month resident at
Economy Inn, approached the
giant reptile, "harassing the
alligator and poking it in the
stomach with a broom han-
dle," according to Joy Hill,
Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation spokesperson.
The animal then "whipped
around and grabbed his
ankle," resulting in lacera-
tions to his ankle.
He was taken to the hospital
L where he was to be treated for
injuries, and has been
charged with attempting to
take/possess an alligator, a
second-degree misdemeanor.
S Hill said the explanation

American Red Cross urges

caution during heat wave


The elderly and the very
young are the most susceptible
to heat illness
As the summer brings hot
temperatures and high humid-
ity, the American Red Cross of
Florida's Coast to Coast
Chapter urges residents to take
precautions against the heat
According to the Centers for
Disease Control and
Prevention, approximately 400
Americans die each year due
to summer's sweltering heat
Furthermore, the National
Weather Service asserts that
excessive heat was the number
one weather-related killer,
causing more fatalities per
year than floods, lightning tor-
nadoes, hurricanes, winter
storms and extreme cold from
1994 to 2003.
Everyone is at risk when
temperatures rise above 90
degrees but the elderly and the
very young are most suscepti-
ble to heat and heat-related ill-
nesses. Heat-related illnesses
can cause serious injury and
even death if unattended.
Signs of heat-related illnesses
include nausea, dizziness,
flushed or pale skin, heavy
seating and headaches.
Victims of heat-related illness
should be moved to a cool
place, given cool water to drink
and ice packs or cool wet
cloths should be applied to the
skin. If a victim refuses water,
vomits or loses consciousness,
call 9-1-1 or your local emer-
gency number immediately.
"Our goal is to mitigate
emergencies by educating the
community about how they can
*protect themselves and their
families' from heat-related ill-
ness," said Mariellen Teeters,
Chapter Manager of the
Florida's Coast to Coast.
. Chapter
Red Cross Heat Safety Tips:
Dress for the heat. Wear
lightweight, light-colored
clothing. Light colors will
reflect away some of the sun's
energy It is also a good idea to
wear hats or to use an umbrel-
la.
Drink water Carry water or


juice with you and drink con-
tinuously even if you do not
feel thirsty. Avoid alcohol and
caffeine, which dehydrate the
body. Avoid using salt tablets
unless directed to do so by a
physician.
Eat small meals and eat
more often. Avoid high-protein
foods, which increase metabol-
ic heat.
Slow down. Avoid strenuous
activity. If you must do strenu-
ous activity, do it during the
coolest part of the day, which is
usually in the morning
between 4 anid 7 a.m. ,
Stay indoors when possible.
If air-conditioning is not avail-
able, stay on the lowest floor
out of the- sunshine.
Remember that electric fans,
do not cool, they simply circu-
late the air.
Be a good neighbor. During
heat waves, check in on elderly
residents in your neighbor-
hood and those who do not
have air conditioning.
Learn Red Cross first aid
and CPR. While the above tips
can help prevent emergencies,
it is crucial to know what to do
if an emergency situation aris-
es.
Know what these heat-relat-
ed terms mean:
Heat cramps: Heat cramps
are muscular pains and
spasms due to heavy exertion.
Although heat cramps are the
least severe, they are an early
signal that the body is having
trouble with the heat
Heat exhaustion: Heat
exhaustion typically occurs
when' people exercise heavily
or work in a hot, humid place
where body fluids are lost
through heavy sweating. Blood
flow to the skin increases,
causing blood flow to decrease
to the vital organs. This results
in a form of mild shock If not
treated, the victim may suffer
heat stroke. ture will be near
normal.

heat safety, contact Florida's

fered from what witnesses
said. She said he told them
the alligator came across the
parking lot and attacked him.
Hill said the gator was
"probably just heading for
another wetland area," and
that the weather had been
very rainy, which increases
the animal's activity
Evans could face a maxi-
mum of 60 days in jail and a
$500 fine. As with all alligators
that have attacked a person,
nuisance alligator trappers
were contacted and removed
the animal. The trappers con-
tract with FWC to catch and
harvest the animals for their
meat and hide.
The same penalties exist for
feeding an alligator, which is
also a second-degree misde-
meanor. Hill advises enjoying
alligators from afar, without
coming in contact with them
or feeding them.
'Alligators don't routinely
seek out people to bite or
attack," she said. "In this case
he just got too close to the alli-
gator.
"If the gator isn't bothering
anything, just leave it alone
and it will go where it's trying
to go," she said.
She said if an alligator is
felt to be a danger to people,
pets or property, call the FWC
nuisance alligator hotline at
1-866-FWC-GATOR (4286).

Accident leaves three


dead, five injured


AMANDA MIMS
Staff Writer

Three people were killed
and five were injured
Saturday, June 18, in a vehicle
accident that happened just
south of Bushnell on
Interstate 75.
The tragic accident
occurred when the driver of a
1998 Ford Explorer lost con-
trol for unknown reasons and
collided with an oncoming
vehicle.
About 11 p.m., the Explorer
was moving northbound when
it traveled onto the west
shoulder and its driver was
unable to regain control of the
vehicle, entering the north-
bound lane again before going
off the west shoulder for a sec-'
ond time, this time crossing
the median and heading into
the southbound lane, accord-
ing to a Florida Highway
Patrol Report
A 2000 Ford van struck the
right side of the Explorer; the
Explorer then overturned and
came to a final resting place
on the west shoulder facing
south, the repoi't states. The
van came to a final stop in the


southbound lanes facing
north.
In the Explorer were Debra
Southall, 41, Mo'najh Black, 2,
and -Jorrie Black, all of
Inverness, who were pro-
nounced dead at the scene.
The fourth person in the vehi-
cle, Tonika Southall, was
flown to Orlando Regional
Medical Center. Ages of Jorrie
.Black and Tonika Southall are
unknown, but they appeared
to be teenagers, said Trooper
Larry Coggins of Florida
Highway Patrol.
He said all four, who were
not wearing seatbelts, were
ejected from the vehicle. It is
unclear who was driving.
The driver of the van, Darin
Hays, 43, of Wesley Chapel,
and passengers Linda Hays,
35, Lexus Hays, and Mercedes
Hays, were flown to ORMC for
treatment, according to the
report. All four in the van
were wearing seatbelts.
Coggins could not verify ages
of Lexus or Mercedes.
The accident is currently
under investigation.
Coggins said this accident
marked the 11th, 12th, and
13th motor vehicle fatalities
in Sumter County this year.

When Memm.y and Mario
Ornelas, Jr. moved to
Webster 13 years ago. they
knew they wouldn't be able
to stay in their then 50-year-
old wood-fra me home for
very long because of its i
poor condition. What they
didn't know was ho\v hard
it would be for them to gain
financing for a new one.
After 13 years and no
luck building -a home, they
were ready to move back to
Memmy s native' Hawaii. to
stay with relatives.
But the same day they say
they were set to move, they
received word from the
Sumter Habitat for
Humanity office that their
application for a new home i
was approved. One and a
half years later, construe-
tion has started.
There was a ground-
breaking ceremony held on 1
Friday, June 17, on the t
future site of the new P
Habitat home, directly next 3
to the old Ornelas house.
Present to celebrate
groundbreaking for the
1,200-square foot home,
which will contain three-
bedrooms and one bath-
room, were Habitat board
members and officials'
Sheriff Bill Farmer, Dale
Bruner, Lavon Harkins, and
Connie and PJ. Lewis of

Bronson warns consumers to

check pest control compares


Florida Agriculture and 'Consumer
Services Commissioner Charles H.
Bronson is urging consu mers to check
on pest control companies prior to
signing a contract for service.
'The Department's Division of
Agricultural Environmental Services
regulates pest control companies
through licensing and requires specif-
ic training for -professional applica-
tors. The division also regulates the
types, of pesticides that can be used in
this state. Last year, the division's
Bureau of Entomology and Pest
Control conducted nearly 3,500
inspections of pest control activity
and discovered 120 illegal operators.
Action taken against those companies
included fines, cease-and-desist
orders, and in some cases criminal
action. .
Florida's climate and vegetation.
attracts many types of insect and
plant pests. The warmer and wetter
weather may prompt many people to
turn to professional pest control com-
panies to help control common house-
hold pests and termites, and to help
keep their lawns and yards safe from
damaging pest insects and weeds..
As a result, Florida has one of the
largest pest control industries in the
nation, with almost 4,000 licensed
companies and over 30,000 people
making their living providing these
services to Floridians.
The majority of the businesses fol-
low the rules, but there are some peo-
ple who offer pest control services
without being properly trained and
licensed.
"Pest control is an important serv-
ice that can protect a person's home
and health," Bronson said. "But pest
control performed by untrained or
unlicensed people is no bargain. At
best, the service will be ineffective,
and at worst, can be dangerous if they
use the wrong materials or put pesti-
cides in the wrong place."
There is also the potential that per-
sons posing as pest control employees
can gain access to a person's home, in


order to commit crimes.
The Florida Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services
requires that all people engaged in
the pest control industry carry a,
photo ID card at all times when per-
forming these services. The ID card
will have the licensed company name
and address along with the name and
identification card number of the
holder. ID card holders must be
employees of licensed companies,
and have continuing training in pest
control and safety measures.
, Licensed companies also must
maintain insurance coverage, which
can help protect consumers in the
event of errors made by the company
or in the.event:of accidents.
The problem of unlicensed compa-
nies and individuals is particularly
bad when it comes to lawn care com-
panies.
There are many lawn care compa-
nies in Florida. but no company can
apply any pesticides for weed control
or lawn insect control unless properly'
licensed by the Department.
Companies that apply pesticides with-
out being licensed are unlikely to
have properly trained individuals
doing the work, or to have appropri-
ate insurance coverage.
Unlicensed pest control is also
against the law, and can result in fines
and even criminal prosecution.
"Consumers should make sure that
any pest control services, including
lawn care that includes weed control
or insect control, are properly
licensed by the department," Bronson
said. "That is the only way for con-
sumers to be assured that the people
they are paying are trained and
supervised properly."
Consumers with questions about
pest control companies should call
the department's toll-free hotline at 1-
800-HELPFLA (1-800-435-7352) to find
out if the company is properly regis-
tered and to ask about the complaint
history of the business.

DOD announces Korean
Defense Service Medal
Public Law 107-314 legislated the
creation of a new medal to recognize
military service in the Republic of
Korea and the surrounding waters.
'Members of the armed forces
authorized the KDSM must, have
served in support of the defense of,
the Republic of Korea. The area of'
eligibility encompasses all land area
of the Republic of Korea, and the
contiguous water out to 12 nautical
miles, and all air spaces above the
land and water areas. ,
The KDSM period of eligibility is
July 28; 1954, to a future date to be
determined by the secretary of
defense.
Service members must have been
assigned, attached, or mobilized to
units operating in the area of eligi-

adjacent thereto each year since the
signing' of the cease-fire agreement
in July 1953, which established the
Demilitarized Zone. For more than


50 years, U.S. Armed Forces' efforts

Congresswoman
Giny Brown-Waite


T his past Thursday, President
Bush and members of his
administration officially kicked
off the new Medicare prescription
drug benefit tour. The
speech was given at the -
Department of Health
Human and Human
Services (HHS),
Attending the event were
Bush Cabinet heads Mike
Leavitt, HHS; Elaine L.
Chao, Labor; Alphonso
Jackson, Housing and
Urban Development; R.
James Nicholson, Veterans
Affairs; and Norman Y.-
Mineta, Transportation. D
Also in attendance was Ro
former Louisiana senator
John Breaux, one of only
two Democrats allowed on the law's
negotiation committee.
Notably absent was former power-
ful congressman and chairman of the
House Commerce Committee, Billy
Tauzin (R-LA). Tauzin is often
referred to as the architect of the
Medicare Modernization,
Improvement, and Prescription Drug
Act of 2003 (MMA). He is now the CEO
of the Pharmaceutical Research and
Manufacturers Association of
America (PhRMA).
This stumping tour comes after the
president's highly unsuccessful 60
days, which turned into a 90-day tour
for the modernization or reform of
Social Security
Bringing his case to the people
(remember, after a disgraceful inabil-
ity to have Americans sign up for the
Medicare discount card) is another


tactical mistake of this administra-
tion.
The president's intention has been
to rejuvenate the Reagan revolution;
however, Bush is no
Ronald Reagan!
With five months left
before the official sign-up
date .of Nov. 15, perhaps
the president and all the
president's people are a
bit late.
But then, again, Bush
has wasted the first six
months of his second term
illuminating "we the peo-
ple" of the merits of Social
AN Security reform. Every
HAN time the president speaks
of this reform, he loses the
interest of Americans of
every age group.
Stop!
The 109th Congress will never vote
oh this proposal. Congress will soon
take its summer recess and, when
members return in the fall, they will
be only one year away from re-elec-
tion. And during the second term of
the 109th in 2006, members will be
running not only to save their own
seats, but running from this very
unpopular proposal. At present, at
least 40 Republican members of
Congress will not vote yea for this pro-
posal.
So, why is it that Bush is going back
on the stump, this time for prescrip-
tion drugs?
The reason given is to form a net-
work of citizens to help one another
explain and help fill out the applica-
tions for the new benefit


The true reason is that Bush, the
GOP, and many congressional
Republicans do not want to let
PhRMA and the industry down. They
want- the 225 classes of drugs that
were promised them, and not the 146
presently suggested.
United States Pharmacopoeia
(USP) was given the MMA. contract to
determine the proposed list of classes
of medications. And it has proposed
146. It is the job of USP to create the
classes of medications to cover med-
ical conditions that create the need
for us to use prescription medica-
tions, such as anti-inflammatories,
cholesterol-lowering, hypertension
and so on.
However, PhRMA wants what it was
promised.
In 1999, then Gov. George W Bush
did not even know the difference
between Medicare and Medicaid.
Bush has not done anything for the
ageing, indigent, uninsured (we never
hear about America's disgrace, the
uninsured). For that matter, I have not
noticed any beneficial domestic poli-
cy in the past 41/2 years.
I have used kid gloves with Bush
and his cronies. However, if I truly
choose to advocate for the ageing and
Medicare beneficiaries, I must now
put the blame where it belongs!
If you disagree, talk to me in 2007.
Keep my green tea warm, and I will
talk to you next week

Storms led FEMA to online innovations


Working in cooperation
with the State of Florida, the
U.S. Department of
Homeland Security's
Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA)
used technological innova-
tions to help meet some of
the challenges brought by the
historic 2004 hurricane sea-
son.
Improvements included
the introduction of online
registration capability, as
well as the creation of three
new Web sites.
Online registration de-
buted on FEMAs official web
site on Oct. 1, 2004, providing
applicants with the option of
registering online for disas-
ter assistance. Following the
unprecedented 2004 hurri-
canes, 26,277 of the 1,247,810
Floridians who registered
with FEMA did so online.
With billions of dollars in
disaster assistance at stake,
the state of Florida and
FEMA turned to an online
solution to allow local, coun-


ty and state officials to track
their applications. The
Florida Public Assistance
Web site Was developed
through collaboration among
FEMA, the State Emergency
Response Team,. and a pri-
vate company, MB3 Online.
When hurricanes ren-
dered tens of thousands, of
housing units unusable,
FEMA sought a common
-electronic forum to bring,
together those with available
rental resources and those in
need of rental housing.
Designed in partnership with
Florida State University, the
result was Disaster Housing
Resources Online.
Scam artists and un-
scrupulous, unlicensed con-
struction workers often prey
on disaster victims. To coun-
teract that prospect after
Florida's 2004 hurricanes,
FEMA, in cooperation with
Florida State University, cre-
ated this resource to link
individuals, renters, and
homeowners with legitimate,


Florida licensed contractors.
The State Emergency
Response Team (SERT) is a
collaboration of Florida's
state agencies led by the state
coordinating officer. SERT's
mission is. to ensure that
Florida is prepared to
respond to emergencies,
recover from them, and miti-
gate their impacts.
Visit www.usfa.fema.gov
for the latest information on
the hurricane relief efforts.
FEMA prepares the nation
for all'hazards and manages
federal response and recov-
ery efforts following any
national incident.
FEMA also initiates mitiga-
tion activities, trains first
responders, works with state
and local emergency man-
agers, and manages the
National Flood Insurance
Program and the U.S. Fire
Administration.
FEMA became part of the
U.S. Department of
Homeland Security on
March 1, 2003.

"How do I decide which funeral
home to call when the time comes?"

Aside from the requirement that all funeral homes be
licensed by the state, some basic questions you might ask
when selecting a funeral home include: Are they flexible
enough to handle your specific needs? Are decisions made
locally or from an out-of-town corporate office? Are they
full service? Do they sub-contract services such as
cremation or do they provide these options on-site?
Everyone has different priorities and questions about
funeral pre-planning. We invite your questions and we
will respect your priorities. Please call us for a no cost, no
obligation, no pressure appointment to get the facts on
how you can benefit from funeral pre-planning.

OK, guys. Raise your
hand if going to church
tops your list of things
you want to do more than any-
thing else on Sunday?
Peek inside a typ-
ical North "
American church
on a Sunday morn-
ing and you'll find
fewer than 40 per-
cent of the adults in
the pews are men,
said David Murrow,
author of "Why ...
Men Hate Going to .
Church" (Thomas
Nelson Publishers). NA
Murrow's thesis, NA
however, is not to KENN
call men back to
church, but to call
the church back to men.
He begins his book by saying
today's church is "perfectly.
designed to give the results it's
getting," meaning that most
churches are designed to.
appeal to women, children and
the elderly and that's who
fills the pews.
After researching men and
masculinity, and talking to
scores of men about their own
religious experiences, Murrow
found a consistent theme: Men
want to know, God, but they
want nothing to do with
church.
In his research, Murrow
found that more than 90 per-
cent of American men believe
in God, and five out of six call
themselves Christians. But
only two out of six attend
church on a given Sunday.
"Truth is, the modern
church is not designed to do
what Jesus did reach men
with the good news," he writes.
In contrast, he said, the first-
century church was a magnet
to men, that Jesus' "strong
leadership, blunt honesty and
bold action mesmerized men,"


but today's church repels
them. He set out to find out
why.
Modern churches, he discov-
ered, are most often led by
men, but dominated
by women and their
values. Citing a
series of focus
groups that identi-
fied the primary
themes of the
Christian faith,
Murrow notes the
most mentioned
responses were fem-
inine qualities of
support, nurture,
CY humility and
EDY dependence .
Therefore, Murrow
concludes, people
think that to be Christian is to
embrace feminine values.
But, he said, "early
Christians were known for risk
taking, power, aggression and
heroic sacrifice" and that
"somewhere in church history
someone monkeyed with the
definition of a Christian!
Today, a 'good Christian' is
known mostly for meekness,
sensitivity, passivity and sweet-
ness. This standard of
Christian behavior is very
tough on men (even those who
are sold out to Jesus) while it's
easier for women to achieve.
"Men have gotten this mes-
sage: 'You're flawed the way
God made you. You need an
extreme makeover.' And we
wonder why men hate going to
church," he said.
By the way, I wholeheartedly
agree with everything he
writes about. He said that the
gospel message that Jesus
brought with him was one of
adventure and risk "Come and
die!" Jesus calls. "Come and
follow me and give up your lit-
tle life with its little pursuits
and find something great and


grand. Follow me and get your
hands dirty. Follow me and I'll
guarantee you'll get the wits
scared out of you; you'll discov-
er strength you never knew you
had; you'll be stretched farther
than you ever thought possi-
ble."
That's the gospel, but that's
not the church. The church -
not all churches but many is
characterized by soft organ
music and pews covered, in
mauve fabric. ,It's floral
arrangements, "sharing"
prayer requests and singing
pretty love songs to a milky
skinned Jesus with a pageboy
hairdo.
It's girly.
But it's not hopeless. When I
look around my church, I see
lots of men, and not girly men,
either. I see men who take up
chainsaws and nail guns, who
go into prisons and get their
hands dirt' and bloodied all
for the sake of the gospel. MS'
church's leaders boldly issue
Jesus' dare and calling to
"Come and die!" and men flock
to do so. It's awesome to see.
"Over time, the church tends
to get out of balance and lose
its.masculine spirit," Murrow
writes. "Then God raises a lion
- a Martin Luther, John
Wesley, Charles Finney or Billy
Sunday to drag the church
back into balance. The men
return. The great revivals of
the past three centuries always
transformed large numbers of
men.

ROBIN EDDINS
Times Correspondent


SA special group of repre-
sentatives from several agen-
cies involved with emergency
services gathered together to
present pre-disaster informa-
tion to the public last week-
Police, Fire,.'escue, SECO,
Progress Energy, D.AR.T, the
Salvation Army,, the Red
Cross and others presented
information on how local cit i-1
zens can be better prepared
and how, to help the agencies
to assist them in the event of a
hurricane and other disasters
that may befall the area.,
Kevin Price explained that
each employee is trained in a
storm plan that helps to
return power as soon as pos-
sible after an event and how
the priority system works
with critical care, shelters
and police and fire rescue are
returned to service before the
general population will get
their services back

A representative from
SECO explained the company

ing other emergency agencies
in stating the dangers of using'
generators during,power out-
ages and how people can bet-
ter protect themselves and
their families by proper
usage of generators.

tions, avoiding usage indoors
to avoid carbon monoxide
poisoning and that if one was
pla un ing on using a generator
for whole house electricity
power the need of a double
pole, double throw transfer
switch to avoid any back feed
that could lead to a fatality.
Wildwood Police Capt. EK W
Reeser discussed items that
people could bring with them
'to the shelters to be as com-
fortable as possible in the
event of having to leave their
homes but most of all he
urged. "Share this informa-
tion with everyone you
know."

He also asked that after a
major storm that citizens
remain in their homes and
resist the urge to survey the
damage as it would be easier
and safer for emergency per-
sonnel and clean up crews to
do their jobs. It would also be
safer for the citizens as well.
The Sheriff's, Office has
Vials of Life available so that
member's of the public 'may
keep important information
readily available for emer-
gency personnel.
A Water Department repre-
sentative said that it would be
very unlikely that water
would be lost during a storm
but know where your meter is
and how to shut if off If you
don't know, call the depart-
ment and someone will come


out and show you how to han-
dle it if necessary. If it's shut
off make sure you let it run
until the water is clear before
you drink it. Save your milk
jugs, fill your bathtubs and
use pool water to flush your
toilets. Conserve as much as
possible don't flush every
time, he told those present
Booths were set up around

Sheriff's Deputy Tim Nordle
took people on a tour of the

acquired after prisoners in
Daytona did the interior work
from a federal grant.
The trailer, equipped with a
conference room, kitch-
enette, can be set up and-
ready in 20-30 minutes when
needed. Places for fire/res-

At about 10 p.m. on Monday, June 13, Sumter Fire Rescue received word of a fire at this Oxford
home, estimated to be at least 40 years old. Deputy Chief Brad Burris of Sumter Fire Rescue
said the fire, which destroyed the inside of the home, was caused by faulty wiring, and firefight-
ers worked for about 30 minutes to extinguish it. Burris said he believed the homeowner, who
was not present at the time of the fire, to be the only person living there.

The "Memory Mobile,"

Bushnell team takes District


BRENDA LOCKLEAR
Staff Writer

The Bushnell Mini Minors
seemed to love the number 10
this year 10 runs and 10-run
rules and undefeated!
That's exactly what they did
to five out of six all-star chal-
lengers who took them on this
season. That means they were
leading the challenger with at
least a 10-run lead by the
fourth inning. That also
means it's game over and the
leading team takes the win.
When asked what they
focused on this season and
what was most notable, Head
Coach Ronald Strickland said-
it was the support from the
team and coaches to the par-
ents, fans and other support-
ers who were steady behind
the team.
He said they had team with
a good bunch of kids who
work and stick together.
They have a saying, "Do the
Work," and he said with a
laugh, when he yells out "Do
the work," this team is
"Focused and ready. They're
bad to the bone I just really
enjoyed them."
As for support, he said there
were at least 50 people who
came to watch the kids play,
but weren't actually affiliated
with the team. He expressed
how much he appreciated it


and how impressed he was.
The coaches focus this sea-
son was simply to have the
players working as a team.
He said this group of kids
has played in T-Ball and mini
minors as an all-star team and
they did the same thing in
their all-star season last year -
taking five of the six teams
with the 10-run rule win.
Last Friday night they
played Wildwood and came
away with a 10-run rule win.
Their last game, Saturday,
was played in Belleview
against Spring Hill National.
"It. was the final game of the
series and it was pouring
rain," he said, adding they
had an hour delay.
It was in the third or fourth
inning that the Bushnell team
came up and took over.
"We really came around
from 2 to 2," he said.
"It's just a fine bunch," he
said of players, coaches, fans,
parents and supporters.
They scored 10. runs. in one
inning to win the tournament.
This year's championship
included 10 teams from
Sumter and surrounding
counties Marion, Hernando
and Lake.
This year they took Ridge
Manor 14-0, 'Hernando
American 7-2, Spring Hill -
11-0, South Lake .- 12-2,
Wildwood 12-1 and Spring
Hill 12-2.


Bushnell All Stars took the District Championship title in the mini-minor division this year. They are: (back row, left to right):

Sumter Girls Softball hosts AllU-Star playoffs


ROBIN EDDINS
Times Correspondent
The recent bad weather did
not dampen the spirits of the
girls participating in the All-
Star playoffs hosted in
Bushnell at the Kenny Dixon
Sports Complex.
Three age groups: 10 and
under, 12 and under and 16
and under participated in the
invitational tournament with
teams playing in Dixie League
Youth Softball from
Wildwood, Belleview,
Springhill, Bushnell and
Brooksville.
Four games were complet-


ed on Saturday, June 11, with
some games being shifted
from Saturday to Sunday to
compensate for the weather
delays.
A total of 10 games were
played but the weather still
caused some problems leav-
ing the playoffs 3 games shy of
a complete tournament
The rains held up on
Sunday, June 12, until just
after 12:30 p.m. allowing for
many of the games being com-
pleted.
However the 16 and under
teams was called with just a V2
an inning left to determine
the winner.


Coach Ron Boyatt said,
"Most of the girls did not want
to let the weather interfere
with the game. They said, 'It's
only water."'
The coach said that the tal-
ented bunch of girls were very
disappointed when the bot-
tom fell out of the sky.
He is very impressed with
their sportsmanship and par-
ticipation.
The 10-year veteran of the
South Sumter Girls Softball
Association applauds the ded-
ication of the girls and the
coaches of all the teams.

Bobby Gonzales; Assistant


The team is shown here: (front row, left to right) Hayden
Fields, Cameron Hayes, Bo Farmer, Reace Kinley, Zack

Kinley, James "Gebo" Farmer, Tommy Lancaster.


Bushnell Minors

All-Star Team

wins back-to-back games


The Bushnell Minors All-
Star Team secured their seat
in the District Division of the
All Star Tournament by win-
ning both of their back-to-
back Sub-District games this
weekend in Oak Griner.
Bushnell began their vic-
tories with a 15-3 win
against Ridge Manner on
Friday, June 17 and then
again with a 16-4 win
against Oak Grinner on


Saturday, June 18th.
Fans contributed these
wins to consistent hitting,
accurate fielding and pitch-
ing, and an all- around good
attitude by the players and
coaches.
The Bushnell Minors All-
Star Team will play their first
District Game at 10 a.m. on
Saturday, June 25 in
Wildwood.


Coaches Joe Meisemore and
Reece Thompson
12 and under: Head Coach -
Scott Coblentz and Assistant
Coach Tim Rhodes
16 and under: Assistant
Coaches Don Parrish and
Cindy Long
"The coaches, assistant
coaches and the parents are
all supportive and encourag-
ing to the girls and that makes
it easier to impress and teach
these kids for their future."
Despite the weather, Boyatt
said that the teams that par-
ticipated are interested in
making plans for another
playoff next year.

New Florida rabies law


safeguards pets and the public


On Friday, May 27, Governor
Bush signed a new rabies law,
which will greatly benefit pets
and their owners while protect-
ing the public against rabies.
Senator Nan Rich (D-Broward)
and Representative David
Russell (R-Hernando- Citrus)
sponsored the legislation. With
passage of this legislation,
Florida joins 34 other states
that either require or recognize
three-year rabies vaccines.
Currently only 14 Florida
counties recognize a three-year
rabies vaccine for the full dura-
tion of immunity which has
resulted in thousands of cur--
rently vaccinated animals
being required to be revacci-
nated for no justifiable medical
reason due to local laws. The
public has become increasingly
aware of the over-vaccination
issue. As one legislator
summed it, up, "government is
finally catching up with sci-
ence."

be required. Veterinarians will
still have the option of using a
rabies vaccine of either one or
three year's duration of immu-

T his past weekend,
Sumter D.A.R.T. and

;(Disaster Animal

training class, cer-
tified for continued
education credits.
Attending the
,training were Dart

ties. Animal

,tatives from Li

along with North Central

Response Team members.
also attended.
This particular training
was on standard procedures
in an emergency compound
environment. When an emer-
gency is declared, and DART
,earns are deployed, it is
imperative that each mem-
ber understands the chain of
command and the proce-
dures to follow. Because
each disaster is different, \\e
learn from each one, and
fine-tune our training to bet-
ter help the citizens and ani-
mals in the impacted areas.
Dogs used in the mock drill
came from the Humane
'Society/SPCA of Sumter
County and Sumter County
Animal Control. Horses were
provided by Trish Cheston
for a session on safety tips for
.horse rescue, and Sheri
Evans provided a calf for
livestock training. Also on
hand was Mitch Brynes. of

Fishing with friends on Lake Panasoffkee


I got a phone call one day a
couple of weeks ago from
one of my long time good
friends Joe Strickland, the
long time and popu-
lar mayor of
Bushnell, that a
good mutual buddy
of ours was coming
down to visit him
for a few days and
would I like to join "
them for a day or
two of serious brim
fishing on Lake
Panasoffkee?
The old boy com- J.
ing down for the JAMEE
visit was David J E
Callaway from up in Outdo
Thomaston, Ga.,
where he lives on
the property adjoining where
our deer hunting lease and
camp is located and over the
years he has became a really
good friend to all of the hunt
club members.
David and I have quite a bit
in common in that we both like
to hunt and fish every chance
we get We are both retired vet-
eran law enforcement officers
and we both have more than
30 years carrying a gun and
badge. David's tenure with law
enforcement was spent while
serving as a trooper with the
Georgia Highway Patrol and
the record of these fine offi-
cers speaks well for its self.
Anyway, I have been around
no telling how many folks over
the years that have a real pas-
sion for fishing but in all of
those many years of being
around all kinds of dedicated
fishermen on both salt and
fresh water, David takes the
cake.
David's patience rivals the
biblical hero Job in that he
will fish as long as he can stay
on the water and it don't mat-
ter a whole lot one way or the
other to him as to whether the
fish are biting or not. His theo-
ry is that if you ain't on the
water with a baited hook out
trying you sure ain't gonna
catch any fish and you know


r


when you get right down to it
he's absolutely right
Anyway, as it turned out. I
only got to spend one day with
Joe and David and
as always on past
fishing trips we had
*: a fine time. Folks,
you know when
good friends get on
the water and catch

A Writer watching the new\

above the eastern


horizon bringing a
fantastic display of vivid li ing
colors that no artist on this
earth could really capture. It is
a fleeting special feeling of a
God given cool morning
breeze for a few treasured
minutes as it moves across
your face. There is just some-
thing special about starting a
day off out on a lake with a
couple of good friends.
The fish did not start to hit
big time until the sun was up
above the tree line but it did
not matter a bit to us as we rev-
eled in our blessings of being
fortunate enough to be out on
the water in the first place. It
was our day and we were
going to enjoy every last
minute of it
My good friends, I honestly
and truly believe a lot of our
world's troubles and problems
could be resolved in one great
big hurry if only the major
leaders in this old world could
spend a few mornings in a
small boat fishing together.
You know the Bible teaches
us that our Lord Jesus, as he
went out to find his twelve dis-
ciples, chose fishermen as the
first four. That in itself says a
lot for the character of those
who enjoy spending quality
time on the water fishing. It
also says a lot for the fine fel-
lowship that takes place when

nothing to fool around with no

The state spends untold mil-

water resources. This is one
facet of our government that
not near enough tax dollars is

Tips on successfully growing geraniums in the garden:


More than half of flower
growers and retail nurseries
in the United States grow or
sell geraniums. This indi-
cates their wide appeal and
range of climatic adaptabili-
ty. Geraniums are popular for
their continuous flowering
throughout the summer and
early fall in most of continen-
tal United States and
Canada.
Traditionally, geraniums
are propagated exclusively
by vegetative means.
Commercial operators take
root cuttings from disease-
free stock plants and sell
them to local growers. Local
growers use these cuttings as
stock plants from which they
propagate plants for sale.
Geraniums take up consid-
erable greenhouse time,
space, heat and labor before
reaching consumers, thus
they are more expensive than
many other bedding plants
which require less time to
produce. Recently, there is a
trend toward growing gerani-
ums from seeds. Seed-propa-
gated geraniums perform
equally as well as vegetative-
propagated material and pro-
duce smaller plants at less
cost to the consumer.
Seed-propagated gerani-
ums branch freely, are less
leggy and seem to grow faster.
Geraniums are at their peak
of performance late winter
through early summer in cen-
tral and South Florida and
early spring through early
summer in North Florida. To.

ensure maximum perform-

proper cultural practices.
Geraniums grow best in
full sun. They will tolerate
partial shade, but will usual-
ly grow tall, pro-
ducing fewer
lateral branches
and consequent-
ly, fewer flow-
ers. They should
be spaced 18
inches apart in
flowerbeds. To
avoid disease
problems and to
give a well-
groomed
appearance cut
off all the old
flower heads.
Geraniums
grow best in
soils that pro-
vide good
drainage and
aeration, and
have good mois-
ture and nutri-
ent retention
capacities.
Florida's .sandy
soils should be amended with
organic matter.
Incorporation of two to three
inches of organic matter into
planting beds will increase
both water and nutrient hold-
ing capacities. Organic mate-
rials such as leaf mold or
peat moss should be thor-
oughly mixed in the soil.

ing and eventual yellowing should be fertilized prior to
