Trinity Site: Where course of history changed

By Timothy P. Howsare Record Editor WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE — It only happens twice a year.

For one Saturday in April and another in October, the White Sands Missile Range opens its gates to curious outof-state tourists and state residents alike who wish to visit the Trinity Site, a barren patch of land about 60 miles northeast of Alamogordo.

Aside from the pyramid-shaped stone monument and what remains of an enormous steel bomb casing called Jumbo, there’s really not a whole lot to see after driving through what seems like endless miles of flatlands on the missile range.

So what’s the attraction? It is the historical significance of the Trinity Site. This is where the first atomic bomb was exploded on July 16, 1945.

Less than a month after that successful test, atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, giving the Japanese no choice but to surrender and end World War II. The bombs killed 129,000

people, and after 70 years, remain the only use of nuclear weapons in warfare.

Those events ushered in the nuclear age and forever changed the course of humanity.

Even after the nuclear disarmament that followed the Cold War, there are still enough bombs left to annihilate every living being on the planet.

Hundreds of people flocked to the Trinity Site last Saturday, many taking selfies or photos of spouses and family members in front of the monument that marks Ground Zero. Jumbo, which ultimately was not used to case the bomb, got its fair share of photo ops as well.

Visitors also got to tour the McDonald-Schmidt Ranch House, the place where scientists assembled the bomb’s plutonium core. The house is located two miles from Ground Zero.

The 51,500-acre area, which includes Ground Zero, the McDonald-Schmidt Ranch House and the base camp where the scientists and support group lived, was declared a National Historic Landmark

Wouldn’t you want a little more light than this if you were messing around with plutonium? There were no LED or compact fluorescent bulbs back in the 1940s. A single 60-watt incandescent bulb dangles from the ceiling in each room of the McDonald-Schmidt. On each ceiling is an old-fashioned ceramic fixture. in 1975.

In 1984, the National Park Service restored the deteriorating ranch house to appear as it did in 1945.

Though the National Park Service has for decades wanted to take the site under its umbrella, the U.S. Army still manages the site, said Sue Taylor, curator at New Mexico Museum of Space History.

Taylor said the Army has

not been willing to turn over that much real estate to the NPS. Furthermore, there are obvious security concerns.

The site is located well within the boundaries of a highly classified military installation.

Though visitors can take photos at the site, they are strictly forbidden from snapping pictures as they travel to and See TRINITY, Page A2

Free tree seedlings mark Arbor Day

Nine-year-old Jennifer Rosas of Artesia receives free tree seedlings Saturday from Zoo Director Elaine Mayfield at Spring River Park & Zoo. Also pictured is Jennifer’s mother, Amalia Rosas. About 300 tree seedlings were given away Saturday at Arbor Day at the Zoo, although Mayfield said over a hundred more free seedlings are available, in 13 different species.

Anyone interested may pick up two free seedlings per person at the zoo’s office from 3 to 5 p.m. weekdays, while quantities last. Mayor Dennis Kintigh said in a proclamation Saturday that 2015 marks the 25th year Roswell has been recognized as a Tree City USA community, the only city in New Mexico to receive the certification for 25 consecutive years from the National Arbor Day Foundation.

What remains of Jumbo, a 10-foot in diameter, 214-ton steel casing built to contain the Trinity test bomb. The detonation actually involved two explosions — a conventional blast involving TNT and then a nuclear explosion a fraction of a second later. At first, scientists where concerned that the plutonium might not explode and instead be scattered all over the countryside. Jumbo was built to contain the plutonium.

However, as confidence grew that the nuclear reaction would be successful, scientists decided not to use Jumbo. Instead, Jumbo was placed under a steel tower about 800 yards from Ground Zero. The blast destroyed the tower, but Jumbo stayed intact. The ends are missing because in 1946 the Army detonated 500-pound bombs inside it, blowing out the ends.

Regents OK tuition hike for UNM students

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Costs to attend the University of New Mexico will rise in the coming school year after the Board of Regents approved a series of tuition and fee hikes for the university’s main Albuquerque campus and others across the state.

Students at the Albuquerque campus will see tuition rise by 3 percent in the fall under a proposal approved by regents on Friday. Students attending the university’s branch campuses in Gallup, Taos, Los Alamos and Valencia County will see even bigger increases.

Fees also will increase at all five campuses, with the board approving an increase of nearly 5 percent.

The Albuquerque Journal reports that regents approved the increases on a 5-2 vote.

Students at the main

campus taking 15 credit hours will see annual tuition and fees rise by $217.

Student leaders worked closely with the administration during the budget process and said they support the increases in fees and tuition.

The Board of Regents is scheduled to vote on a consolidated budget and forward it to the state for final approval in early May. The 3 percent tuition increase is part of a program that gives incentives to students who graduate in four years. Under the plan, students who enter UNM in the fall and earn a degree in four years will pay no tuition in their final semester. That de facto “scholarship” that could amount to as much as $2,902 for current high See TUITION, Page A3

Americas Summit Social worker embracing life, fatherhood wraps up with issues in US-Cuba shadow

By Jeff Jackson Record City Editor

PANAMA CITY (AP) — Climate change. Peace in Colombia. Argentina’s longstanding claim of sovereignty over the Falkland Islands.

Heads of state representing lands from Tierra del Fuego to the North American tundra pressed their concerns in a marathon session at a Panama City convention center as the seventh Summit of the Americas wrapped up Saturday.

It was all overshadowed by the first substantial faceto-face encounter by sitting U.S. and Cuban leaders since 1958, as presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro seek to restore dip-

lomatic relations and lower the combative tone that has prevailed since ties were severed 54 years ago.

As in past summits, several of Washington’s most outspoken critics used the forum as a bully pulpit to rail against U.S. behavior in the region, from current issues such as travel and financial sanctions against seven Venezuelan officials over human rights concerns to long-ago insults like 19th century expansionist policies.

Lost in an ocean of drugs and alcohol, Nathan Padilla righted his ship when he became a father.

Padilla, a Roswell native, lived in Albuquerque at the worst time of his life. He was going nowhere but down, despite having good jobs in construction and retail, because of a cocaine addiction and a drinking problem. But when his son was born 16 years ago he became a new man.

“At 29 I wasn’t doing well at all. I was actually very lost, very confused and the new girl I was with she became pregnant,” Padilla says.

“And for some reason I had a peace with that.

I wasn’t doing well at all

but I knew I was raised right and if you became a parent you were going to show up and do your job.

I think becoming a parent was one of the big light bulbs that said ‘Hey you’re not making good choices.’”

The first good choice Padilla made in his new life was to leave his girlfriend and come back to Roswell with his son, also named Nathan.

“He was sort of the catalyst that said ‘Hey you need to wake up and do right.’ Of course I didn’t wake up right away. I stumbled,” Padilla says.

from the location.

The Army, which has had visitors to the test site since 1953, has done an admirable job maintaining the site and has a cooperative agreement with the NPS, Taylor said.

The visits used to be in July, closer to the actual date of the test, but it was decided that July was too hot. Now, visitors can come to the site one day in April and one day in October. The next date in 2015 is Oct. 3.

Last Saturday’s tour started at 6 a.m. when the buses arrived at the museum parking lot. This particular morning was special not just because of the trip to the Trinity Site, but also because a lunar eclipse was visible in the western sky.

For $70 per person, the museum, located in Alamogordo, led a tour to the site that included two chartered buses, lunch and knowledgeable museum staff like Taylor who provided history and background on the bomb test. The

General museum’s tour was sold out, with 110 people reserving all the seats on both buses.

From the museum parking lot the two buses traveled to Tularosa High School, where they met up with other buses and 140 cars filled with people who also were traveling to the site. The plan was for all of the buses and cars to travel together in one long caravan.

Everyone’s ID had to be checked. Usually, the museum staff said, the caravan would begin its journey by 8 a.m., but because so many people had showed up in cars the caravan didn’t leave the parking lot until 8:30 a.m.

The museum staff attributed the large turnout to 2015 marking the 70th anniversary of the test.

While in the parking lot, the Daily Record spoke to a man from Portales who said his father, Lt. Col. John M. Banks, had worked with scientists at the site.

“I remember him telling us about the testing,” Tom Banks said.

Banks said this was his first time visiting the site.

Though there’s nothing funny about bombs blowing

up, Banks did recall a story his father told him and his sister that ended up with a somewhat happy ending.

A guided missile that was launched on the testing range went out of control and crossed over the border into Mexico. Banks’ father with his crew in the bunker knew that when the missile fell back to earth, it would go kaboom.

They all figured they’d have an international incident on their hands. (“Sorry Mr. President.

We didn’t mean to attack Mexico.”)

As predicted, the missile crashed, exploded and bodies were scattered everywhere.

But all of the bodies were already dead, as the missile crashed into a cemetery and not a single living person was killed.

As the caravan pulled out onto the roadway, a group of protesters know as “Downwinders” held up signs.

The Downwinders claim that ever since the 1945 test took place, generations of their families have suffered from cancer caused by the radioactive fallout.

While the federal government has compensated ura-

nium mine workers and test site workers who became sick from radiation exposure, only a handful of civilians living near test sites have ever been compensated.

Although no information was released on the Trinity test until after the bombs were dropped in Japan, people in New Mexico knew something big had happened.

The shockwave broke windows 120 miles away and was felt by many at least 160 miles away. Army officials told the public that a munitions storage area had exploded on the testing range, which back then was called the Alamogordo Bombing Range.

When the bomb was detonated at 5:29:45 a.m., the light flash was so bright that a blind girl traveling 50 miles north of the site with her family said she “saw” the blast.

On the morning of July 16, 1945, the “sun rose twice” and destiny was forever changed.

Several Roswell Southside residents reported large explosions Saturday that rattled residential windows.

The explosions were a result of pyrotechnic and blank rounds being detonated Saturday for clients, said Glenn Wells, director of the Matrix International Security Training Intelligence Center, a special forces and private security training facility at 122 Will Rogers Road.

The Pecos Valley Regional Communications Center said there were no damage reports resulting from the training exercise, although nearby residents reported windows being rattled and dirt kicking up more than a hundred feet in the air.

The PVRCC also reported a grass fire south of Roswell along U.S. Highway 285 at about 3 p.m. Saturday.

“She was doing the same things I was and eventually that didn’t work out.

I’ve actually been a single father since my son was 28 days old. I just took it serious. My life fell apart when I lost my dad and it sort of gave me a purpose and a reason when I became one. So I started trying to change, learn. I kept trudging forward. When I became a dad it just made sense. Now you need to show up to life, you need to be responsible because I knew that’s what I was taught. I needed help.

I went to treatment. I got healthier and me and my son moved back to Roswell. My mom was back here. She had followed me to Albuquerque. My sister had been moving around and she moved back. Those were my two clean support systems.”

That was in 2003, and he also brought home some baggage in the form of four DWIs, the first two of which came a week apart. “I was a slow learner,” he deadpans.

Padilla volunteers these details almost as if it’s mandatory therapy, but these days he is the therapist helping pull someone else out of the muck.

“This is all public record.

Every time I apply for my state license it’s there, it’s on file. It’s part of my testimony. It’s what I did and what I chose to do,” he says. “But I also say I did that because I was running, I was hurt, I was lost. … When I started my first business in 2007 there was no question anymore about what I needed to do and that was to be a service provider, be a father first, help my community and go forward. Was it perfect? No.

In the 16 years of his new life, Padilla has earned a slew of associate’s and bachelor’s degrees in psychology, chemistry, biology pre-med as well as counseling certification. He also ensconced himself among a group of established counselors who mentored him as he began a therapy practice, that’s now part of La Familia, and founded Embrace Inc. “That was very helpful putting my own life back together,” he says. “Starting to meet new people helped me think better.

Surrounding myself with positive folks, that’s been a key, to add people to my life that could help me, teach me things, to lead me down new directions and that’s where I met one of my good mentors and close fiends still, Bob Phillips. He’s part of Embrace as well. He directed me to start my first business, which was Forgiven Counseling Services which was an outpatient substance abuse program.”

Embrace is a 6-yearold non-profit agency that guides troubled youths with an emphasis on drug and alcohol awareness among other causes.

Embrace hosts dances, concerts and other functions out the Unity Center on East Bland Street.

Padilla describes the Unity Center as a place where kids go to be safe with adult supervision.

Another one of Padilla’s mentors, the late Jane Batson, and her husband, Jack, also were involved in Embrace and even donated computers for the students to use.

life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as inalienable rights — then noted that the document’s author, Thomas Jefferson, was a slave owner.

Obama sought to chart a smoother course in relations with Latin America, and many other leaders notably did not take a page from the leftist ALBA bloc nations and take strong stands against Washington.

The moderate voices included the presidents of Latin America’s two most populous and economically powerful nations: Brazil’s Dilma Rousseff, who only briefly criticized the U.S.

sanctions on Venezuelans as “counterproductive and inefficient,” and Mexico’s Enrique Pena Nieto, who delivered an attack-free address.

Pena Nieto spent his allotted time expressing solidarity with Chile, whose president skipped the summit to oversee the country’s response to deadly flooding in recent days; backing Colombia’s peace talks with the hemisphere’s largest surviving guerrilla army, a common theme on the day; and praising U.S.-Cuban detente and Castro’s unprecedented attendance.

“All 35 states that make up the Americas are here. ... This historic gathering is thanks to the dialogue between two great friends of

General Mexico, Cuba and the United States,” Pena Nieto said.

“Our nation supports, recognizes and is an ally of this process.”

A potentially tense moment was avoided when President Nicolas Maduro of Venezuela didn’t follow through on a pre-summit pledge to confront Obama with 10 million signatures on a petition demanding the repeal of the sanctions.

Instead, he said the petitions would be delivered through diplomatic channels.

Maduro’s change of heart came after senior U.S. State Department official Tom Shannon flew to Caracas to meet with Maduro, and Obama and other officials walked back language

declaring Venezuela’s political and economic instability a threat to U.S. national security.

Obama and Maduro met briefly in private later in the day.

“President Obama indicated our strong support for a peaceful dialogue between the parties within Venezuela,” said Bernadette Meehan, a spokeswoman for the White House’s National Security Council. “He reiterated that our interest is not in threatening Venezuela, but in supporting democracy, stability and prosperity in Venezuela and the region.”

Venezuelan presidential aide Teresa Maniglia said the two leaders greeted each other in Spanish, but she

“It’s great for UNM and for students because it provides stability and predictability in tuition,” Doughty said. “It encourages students to graduate sooner and get into the workforce faster. I think it will also be a good marketing tool for UNM to recruit students and increase enrollment, too.”

Opinion

Roswell Daily Record

‘The Other White Album’ is the best of The Beatles

A few months ago, I undoubtedly caused a shockwave in the classical music world when I proclaimed in one of my weekly columns that Beethoven’s greatest symphony is not the Fifth but rather the much-lesser-known Third, which happens to be my personal favorite.

But I wasn’t trying to be a know-it-all or intentionally trying to offend anyone with delicate sensibilities. I believe I had a well-reasoned case on why Beethoven’s Third, the Eroica, is not only the greatest of Beethoven’s symphonic works, but the greatest symphony of all time. So there.

Fasten your seatbelts, boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, because I am going to do the same thing today with my favorite Beatles’ album.

I know there are a lot of Baby Boomers in Roswell, and probably within that population are a lot of Beatles fans. So I’m hoping there won’t be any threats of violence come Monday morning from any rogue Beatles fans.

Perhaps when this column goes out on the Internet, my revelation will be so shocking that a crack will appear in the front window

Timothy Howsare Ripcord into Reality of the headquarters of Apple Records. That is, if Apple Records still has a headquarters.

For decades, rock music pundits have lauded “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” as the band’s very best album.

I love “Sgt. Pepper’s” and the other later Beatles albums like “Abbey Road” and “Magical Mystery Tour.” Along with the Fab Four’s songwriting, the brilliance of Beatles producer and audio engineer George Martin shines through most on these albums, with prime examples being the odd circus-music tape loops on “For the Benefit of Mister Kite” and merging two very different tracks in two different keys on “Strawberry Fields Forever” into the final take.

But in all that “sonic sophistication” and “superlative production values,” something seems

lost, and to me that is the simplicity and raw emotion of the earlier Beatles albums.

The Beatles stopped performing around 1966, not just because they got tired of obsessed fans screaming so loudly they couldn’t hear themselves play, but also because as their music got more and more sophisticated it became almost impossible for them to perform live with just three guitars, three Vox amplifiers and a drum kit.

For many years, the album referred to as “The White Album” — which lacked the slick production values of the band’s other late-career albums — was my favorite. But when I listen to it now, the double album from 1968 sounds a bit disjointed and drugged-out.

So what is my favorite Beatles album? I call it “The Other Beatles White Album” — “Revolver.”

Following “Revolver” as a close second is “Rubber Soul.”

“Rubber Soul” was recorded in 1965 and “Revolver” in 1966. To me, this is the mid-career of the Beatles.

They still had that sound of four blokes jamming together in the studio, while introducing the

experimentalism that was to follow in the later albums like backwards tape loops, Indian classical music (sitars and tabla drums, thanks to George Harrison) and psychedelic meanderings (thanks to John Lennon).

Even the album covers stood out as something completely different. Instead of happy-go-lucky smiles, we see the boys gazing at the camera with frowns on “Rubber Soul.” And then there’s “Revolver,” the first Beatles album to not have a group photo on the front.

Instead, four sets of blood-shot eyes pear through stark blackand-white sketches of their faces with a collage of smaller blackand-white sketches and photos to fill in the remaining space. The artwork looks like it could have been produced by eccentric Spanish artist Salvador Dali.

According to one music critic, and I completely agree, “Revolver” marks the first time that the Beatles deliberately incorporated the studio into the conception of the recordings they made, rather than using it merely as a tool to capture their performances.

My favorite Beatles song, “Eleanor Rigby,” is on “Revolver.” I get

goosebumps every time I hear it. It has to be the saddest song ever written, and by someone so young. At age 24, It would seem that Paul McCartney would have been too young to empathize with the old and the lonely. The vocals are brilliantly accompanied by a string octet, which is a string quartet with each instrument doubled.

Another song I adore is “Here, There and Everywhere.” Among the dozens of love songs the Beatles wrote, this has to be the best one musically. The best classical choir in the world could not even come close reproducing the layers of shimmering vocal tracks, which are underscored with an absolutely bare-bones accompaniment that finishes with horns playing at the final cadence. To borrow a phrase from Leonard Bernstein, “Simplicity made manifest.”

Then there are Lennon’s drug-induced excursions with the trance-like “Tomorrow Never Knows” and enigmatic “She Said, She Said.”

“Tomorrow Never Knows” drones on a single chord with a drum pattern that repeats from

Editorial

In journalism field, only honesty works The Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism recently completed an investigation into the publication of a controversial article that appeared in Rolling Stone magazine, “A Rape on Campus.”

In responding to the scathing critique, article writer Sabrina Erdely said, “Reading the Columbia account of the mistakes and misjudgments in my reporting was a brutal and humbling experience.”

Erdely said she would learn from her mistakes.

We can only wonder where she might put that learning experience to good use.

It is hard to imagine that a student newspaper at a second-rate junior college would allow the kind of errors in reporting and editing that made it into print in Rolling Stone.

Columbia said the story about an alleged gang rape in Virginia was a “story of journalistic failure that was avoidable.”

That’s putting it pretty mildly.

The reporter and magazine managed to defame both a university and a fraternity to such an extent that the story sparked protests and a nationwide discussion about sexual assaults. But experienced journalists who read it realized fairly quickly that it wasn’t passing the smell test. Before long, other news organizations were reporting a number of discrepancies.

It soon became obvious that the accused fraternity hadn’t even held a social function on the day “Jackie,” the anonymous alleged victim, claimed to have been raped at a party. It now appears that the alleged perpetrator could be completely fictional.

The problem is that botched stories like this don’t get into print entirely by accident or incompetence. Reporters and publications are supposed to let the facts they uncover govern the content of their articles. When they come to the table with an agenda, bad things happen.

We don’t know for sure that happened in this case. But we do know that campus sexual assault is a “cause.” And it becomes more difficult for people to objectively discuss the merits of information when the subject is a “cause.”

Healthy skepticism, the kind that can make editors and reporters take a needed thoughtful pause, gets written off as “victim blaming,” and the skeptic is suspected of prejudice.

It is hard to know how a professional journalist can get so far off track. Perhaps it was the desire to have a positive impact on an important social issue. Perhaps it was merely a desire to break the big story and gather fame and fortune.

Whatever the reason, the unintended consequences were damaging not only to the credibility of her employer, but of the entire profession.

In the process, the story created skepticism about an issue that deserves serious consideration.

Reporting facts honestly doesn’t always create the sexiest stories — but it is what journalists are paid to do.

Victims advocates to victims of violent crimes

By Steve Wolfe Roswell Neighborhood Watch Several weeks ago, I was asked about a victim’s advocacy program here in Chaves County. I knew one existed but was not sure how to find out about it.

So with a little bit of effort, I learned that there certainly is

such a program, that it is housed in the

District Attorney’s office,

and that it is critical to the judicial process.

Valerie Lopez is the victim services supervisor and Omega Montoya is the victim services coordinator for Fifth Judicial District Attorney Janetta B. Hicks. I had the pleasure to conduct an interview with these two profes-

sionals and what a pleasant experience it was, particularly from a learning perspective.

(Max was there, too, and I’ll talk about him in a minute.)

The Victims of Crime Act (31-26-1 to 31-26 –14 NMSA 1978) provides certain rights to victims of violent crimes.

Although many of us have been victims of some sort of

crime, the Victim Advocacy Program is intended for those who have been affected by 26 specific violent crimes. While Victim Coordinators may be involved in other cases, they are required by law to become involved in these 26 violent crimes. The list of applicable crimes ranges from such things as negligent arson resulting in death or bodily injury to kidnapping to murder to battery against a household member and everything in between. All of these are crimes which have defined victims; someone has been harmed in some way.

Domestic abuse cases frequently involve some of these offenses and Victim Advocate personnel spend a substantial part of their job in domes-

tic abuse situations.

Most of us will not ever interact professionally with Lopez and her staff. They are certainly not out drumming for business. Normally it is the court which makes Victim Advocate assignments and so walk-in traffic is not something which they must deal with in their day to day activity. Because it is somewhat of a closed system, there is no need to be real obvious.

In my conversation, I was given a well-planned booklet that has been prepared by the Administrative Office of the District Attorneys in conjunction with the New Mexico District Attorney’s Association. This booklet, titled “Your

Advance directives let you be in charge of your treatment DEAR DOCTOR K: What are a living will and a healthcare power of attorney?

DEAR READER: A living will and a health-care power of attorney are both types of advance directives — written, legally binding documents.

They allow you to describe what kind of medical care you hope to receive if an accident or illness renders you unable to communicate.

The biggest misunderstanding I’ve seen in my patients is that only the elderly or very ill people need advance directives. That’s definitely not the case. In fact, the younger you are, the more you may have at stake. A serious accident or injury could result in decades of life without decision-making ability.

• A health-care power of attorney permits you (the

Ask Dr. K United Media Syndicate principal) to name a healthcare agent (sometimes called a health-care proxy). Your agent will make medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable to make them yourself.

If you haven’t chosen anyone, a relative or court-appointed guardian who does not know your wishes may be asked to make medical decisions for you. Or a doctor may want all of your close

relatives to agree before following any of their instructions. Conflicts may ensue; decisions may be delayed.

I’ve seen this happen many times, and it’s bad for everyone involved.

• A living will allows you to describe your goals for medical treatment, your religious or spiritual beliefs and any guidance you wish to give regarding your medical treatment in various scenarios that may arise. This document is often used to determine how aggressive you would like your medical treatments to be as the end of life nears. I suggest that people make out a living will to guide their power of attorney, if they have appointed one.

For example, your living will should state clearly if you:

• Do not want to be given life-sustaining care using equipment such as kidney dialysis machines or machines that breathe for you; • Do not want to be resuscitated (brought back to life) if your breathing or heart stops; • Do not want to be given artificial hydration and nutrition through tubes placed into your stomach; • Do not want to receive food and liquid by mouth; • Do want to donate an organ to be transplanted into another person, if you die.

Some people worry that filling out advance directives means giving up control over their medical treatment. In reality, advance directives help you gain a measure of

Take a vacation and go learn about culture

I just bought a book in Greece titled “Learn Greek in 25 Years.” I think it is going to push me. For the first time in my life I can truly understand the meaning of the phrase, “It is all Greek to me!”

My wife and I decided to venture to Greece and to spend a couple of weeks on a Rick Steves tour with 24 others exploring this country that dates its history back as early as 7000 to 3000 B.C. It makes the United States look like a “newborn” country when we have not yet celebrated even 240 years of existence!

After experiencing Greece first hand, I have learned many things; one of them is that I have no desire to learn the language. According to our guidebook, there are about 14 million Greek speakers around the world and about 11 million of them live in Greece. Why? Basically, it is a language that is not spoken much outside of the country.

Greece does have a very rich heritage. Ancient Greece has impacted modern day America more than most people recognize. Greece brought the world the first democracy. It brought theater performances and early art. From Greece came the

Though no one seems to know for sure, the consensus among Beatles experts is that Lennon wrote “She Said, She Said” after George Harrison had had a bad LSD experience at a party in the Hollywood Hills.

Peter Fonda was at the party, and to bring George out of his funk, Peter got in his face and kept saying, “I know what it’s like to be dead. I know what it’s like to be dead.”

What was Peter thinking? If someone did that to me, even without the drugs, I’d probably run out of the house kicking and scream-

On “Rubber Soul,” my two favorites are “Drive My Car” and “In My Life.”

“Drive My Car” could very well be the first rock song to feature the cowbell so prominently. As any respected music scholar will tell you, by the mid-70s nearly every hard-rock song on the radio had cowbell.

Funeral held for black SC man shot by white police officer SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (AP) — The death of a black man shot in the back while fleeing a white police officer was the act of a racist cop, a minister told hundreds who gathered Saturday for the funeral of Walter Scott.

“All of us have seen the video,” the Rev. George Hamilton, the minister at W.O.R.D. Ministries Christian Center, told an overflow congregation. “There is no doubt in my mind and I feel that Walter’s death was motivated by racial prejudice.” Authorities have not said whether race was a factor in the shooting.

Scott was a father of four and Coast Guard veteran whose death sparked outrage as another instance of a white law officer fatally

shooting an unarmed black man under questionable circumstances. The shooting last weekend in North Charleston was captured on a dramatic cellphone camera video by a man who was walking past.

About 450 people including U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., and U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., the two black members of South Carolina’s congressional delegation, gathered in the sanctuary of the church where Scott had worshipped.

About 200 more people waited outside beneath the portico of the church or under umbrellas in the rain because the sanctuary had reached capacity.

in Olympia in 776 B.C. Marathoners run 42 kilometer (26.2 mile) marathons today because of Pheidippides’ 490 B.C. run from Marathon to Athens. Upon arriving in Athens he told the Athenians that they had won the battle against the Persians at Marathon, then he collapsed and died.

In the 4th century B.C. Greek Alexander the Great conquered virtually the entire known world making Greek an international language at the time. Some books of the Bible were written in Greek.

The Parthenon on the Acropolis in Athens was built in the 5th century B.C. and has its own 2,450 year history. Greece includes Corinth and Thessaloniki, two cities to whom the Apostle Paul wrote letters in the first century A.D. that later became books of the Bible.

Even when the Romans conquered Greece in 146 B.C., much of Greek culture became incorporated into the Roman culture. The history of Greece includes its land being ruled

by Persians, Alexander the Great, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, British, German Nazis, and modern day Greece since 1821. We were there on National Day,

Greece’s Independence Day, and watched the parade in downtown Athens as the citizens proudly waved their blue and white flags.

We spent time in Athens then traveled west and south through the Peloponnese.

Greece is a country bordered by beautiful blue water on its south, packed with ruins that are thousands of years old, museums to house some of the ruins, 143 million olive trees, fresh fish, many wines and cheeses, over 1200 islands, snow capped mountains, small villages with many of them on terraces, Greek Orthodox churches, Greek yogurt, red Mediterranean roofs, fields of wild flowers, citrus groves, green hills, warm sunshine and friendly people who greet you with “Yassas” (Hello) and “Kalimera” (good morning). It is a very beautiful country.

Greece has many tourists from foreign lands. It also has an abundance of stray cats and even some stray dogs. My one disappointment in Greece was the defacing done by graffiti.

We were told that they don’t have gangs and most graffiti was political or soccer related in nature. Although

there were places that the graffiti was beautifully done and fit in, most of the graffiti defaced walls and even made some street signs unreadable.

Greece also has many street signs that to nonGreek speakers are unreadable.

When visiting Greece there are many places a person can try to absorb history that occurred on that very location over the past 3,000 years. For example, standing at the Agora, an area next to the Acropolis, one can imagine 2,400 years earlier the philosophers Socrates, Plato and Aristotle spending much time there. In this location, Greek war victories were celebrated including Athens’ victory over Sparta in 425 B.C. The earliest Greek plays and concerts were performed here in the open air and playwright Aristophanes set scenes at the Agora.

Also at this location in the heart of Athens, Greeks awaited the onslaught of the Persians and greeted the coming of Alexander the Great, the conquering Romans and the invasions of the Byzantines and Ottomans.

In about 49 A.D. when the Apostle Paul visited Athens, Mars Hill at the Agora is

where it is believed he spoke about the unknown God written about in Acts 17:17 on his way to Corinth.

We enjoyed our time in Greece and returned home with a greater appreciation for the role Greek history plays in our lives today.

My challenge to you today is to plan a “holiday” as they call it in Europe; otherwise called a vacation to us. Find an area of our state, our country, or a country across an ocean and plan a getaway. It will accomplish two things in your world. First, it will allow you to appreciate the world others live in and second, it will make you appreciate more the world you live in. If you can’t make a trip in person, travel by books or videos.

Oh, and by the way, if you decide to visit Greece, I hope to be done with my book on learning the Greek language in about 25 years!

Just a thought.

Brian Wilson gave George Martin a run for his money with the magic he worked in the studio with his own symphonic arrangements and layers of vocal harmonies, coupled with sound effects such as bicycle bells, dog whistles and trains.

While the album had a lukewarm response in the States, across The Pond it was declared the “most progressive pop album ever.”

The story goes that Brian Wilson and The Beatles were in a game of one-upmanship during the mid60s.

After hearing “Rubber Soul,” the obsessive and compulsive Brian Wilson became even more obsessive and compulsive, dropping out of touring with his bandmates and devoting every waking moment to producing “Pet Sounds” in 1966.

Then, after the hearing “Pet Sounds,” The Beatles tried to take it up a notch by releasing “Sgt. Pepper’s” in 1967.

The grand achievement in these three albums, “Rubber Soul,” “Revolver” and “Pet Sounds,” is that The Beatles and Brian Wilson produced records in which every song on the album was good.

Until then, the mindset for rock albums was

to have maybe three or four good tracks scattered throughout the record with “filler songs” in between.

These three albums changed the course of rock music, which was not much more than a decade old. And much to the chagrin of classical and jazz snobs, these albums elevated rock from “just a passing fad” and/or “dance music” to a true art form.

‘Tres Ritos’ a river of history

By Jeff Jackson Record City Editor

For such a small book, “Tres Ritos” is packed with history.

A resident and state historian from Lincoln County, author Gary Cozzens in his third book will give you more than history dating from the time they put AD next to years up to the 21st century and a tragedy with a Roswell connection. His non-fiction work encompasses tales of romance, Indian royalty, adultery, murder and a political scandal that stretched all the way from the little burg at the foothills of Sierra Blanca to the Casa Blanca in Washington, D.C. “Tres Ritos” is mostly a chronological 142-page story, but the most fascinating aspect of Cozzens’ book focuses on the 1920s Teapot Dome scandal and Albert B. Fall, the New Mexico rancher and statesman who served as Secretary of the Interior under President Warren G. Harding.

Fact: Fall was the first cabinet secretary in U.S. history to be convicted of a felony while in office.

Conjecture: Fall was a sacrificial lamb and acted in the name of national security. More

Rights and Responsibilities as a Crime Victim and Witness,” spells out information from New Mexico law that relates to victims and witnesses of crime.

It answers many direct questions one might ask if he or she is faced with this situation, and it goes through courtroom proce-

than 20 years before the attack on Pearl Harbor many believed the U.S. needed to beef up its oil supply in the Pacific.

While Cozzens is careful to avoid a definite opinion on the Fall Saga — concluding the Fall chapter, “Guilty or innocent — I leave that for the reader’s consideration.” — he does paint a sympathetic portrait of the one-time “tough, savvy” state legislator and U.S. senator.

More than once the book explains that Fall resigned from the cabinet in March 1923 due to poor health and money troubles at the ranch, and not for taking a bribe in the form of a $100,000 interest-free loan from an oil company.

“Fall remained in the cabinet for two years before resigning,” Cozzens writes.

He also details the death of Albert F. Chase, Fall’s grandson, who was on the Japanese POW ship Shinyo Maru that was torpedoed by the USS Paddle in 1944.

At 83-years-old, Fall died on Dec. 1, 1944, in El Paso, Texas more than 12 years after he served a one-year and one-day prison term. More support for Fall from locals: “Nobody around here believes Judge Fall ever did anything wrong” and from Thomas

Ryan in 1947: “You’d better not say anything against Fall around here or you’re liable to get shot.” Ryan was one of the individuals who eventually took over ownership of Fall’s ranch.

Cozzens also dug up a testament from former territorial governor George Curry, who wrote of Fall’s “terrible error in judgment to accept a $100,000 loan.”

Another statement called Fall “careless and inept” while a letter from lawyer Francis C. Wilson to President Herbert Hoover advocated a pardon, despite that fact that Wilson “was not an admirer of Fall’s,” according to Cozzens.

“If Mr. Fall was guilty of receiving a bribe, so was Mr. (Edward) Doheny of giving it. ... As I understand it, in order to constitute a crime, there must be a giving as well as a taking of a bribe. ...”

In the end, however, Fall was denied pardons by Presidents Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower, and the Teapot Dome scandal lives on in the history books and encyclopedias.

Cozzens opens his book writing of ancient petroglyphs in the area where Indian Creek, Golondrina Creek and Three Rivers converge above the Tularo-

sa Basin then moves into early settlements of the Mescaleros and Shanta Community. Eventually he writes of cattle rustling and dubious deeds and other New Mexico legends such as “Billy the Kid” William Bonney, “The King of Tularosa” Patrick Coghlan and “The Cattle Queen of New Mexico” Susan McSween Barber.

If you have read Pulitzer Prize winner “Lonesome Dove” you can’t help but see where Larry McMurtry might have gotten ideas for two scenes in his 1985 epic novel — right out of New Mexico history. Minutes before his hanging in 1885, Maximo Apodaca jumped 60 feet from the fourth floor of the New Mexico state prison; in “Lonesome Dove,” a villain named Blue Duck does the same thing.

In 1923, the ranch home of New Mexico’s unmarried “Cattle Queen” McSween Barber suffered a devastating fire; in “Lonesome Dove,” Nebraska widow Clara Allen loses her home to a massive blaze.

Maybe, maybe not.

Several individuals owned Three Rivers Ranch before and after Fall, including an oilman from Roswell, Colin McMillian, who bought it in 1984.

This is where Cozzens’

book takes a sad turn.

McMillian moved to Roswell in 1961 after a distinguished career in the Marines and ran Permian Exploration Co. He served in the Legislature, ran unsuccessfully for governor, lieutenant governor and the U.S. Senate but also was appointed assistant secretary of defense under President George H.W. Bush. Later he ran President George W. Bush’s campaign in New Mexico.

McMillian, 67, committed suicide at the ranch in 2003 while he was awaiting confirmation as secretary of the Navy, Cozzens writes.

Cozzens describes today’s Three Rivers as a quaint trading post that at times housed a saloon, bar and post office. He says the late Tony Hillerman, a New Mexico author, used to write of crewmen from White Sands Missile Range who often had coffee there in the mornings.

Cozzens craftily finishes with this Hillermanesque passage: “At the old library of Albert Bacon Fall’s house, the former senator might be conferring with Oliver Lee and developing a strategy for his defense in the murder of Albert Fountain, or with Wayne Brazel contemplating his defense

dures in sufficient detail for an individual to understand what is going on. I can see that it would be somewhat reassuring for any of us, and would be an excellent tool for the entire set of procedures in these advocacy cases.

Often the question asked is “Can I be reimbursed, for expenses incurred as a result of the crime?” There are provisions established to help with financial hardships suffered by victims,

including medical, hospital, loss of wages, and other circumstances. However, as I looked through the materials given to me, I found it notable that the real focus seems to be on the emotional side of the advocacy work.

While we can understand the physical risks which would come with becoming a victim of these frightening crimes, the emotional drains must be of equal impact. I can

imagine that many people who have been exposed to such violence will live with it emotionally for years and even for the rest of their lives. The psychological trauma which has occurred must be detected and dealt with by the Victim Advocates.

Back to Max. Max is one of the courthouse dogs, along with his friend Lincoln. Throughout my hour and a half interview, Max was quietly laying at Ome-

ga’s feet. Certainly, there was no menace, but rather a calming effect.

He is trained to give that feeling and I can see how effective an “Assistance Dog of the West” — like Max and Lincoln — can be.

He was working the entire time.

Pakistan frees on bail alleged Boko Haram still killing mastermind of Mumbai attacks ISLAMABAD (AP) — The suspected mastermind of the deadly Mumbai attacks in 2008 was released on bail Friday by a Pakistani court — a move likely to further strain relations with India, which has accused Islamabad of turning a blind eye to Islamic militancy.

The release of Zaki-urRehman Lakhvi, who has been held since his arrest in 2009, drew expressions of concern from both India and the United States.

His lawyer, Rizwan Abbasi, called it “a triumph for law and justice.”

Lakhvi has been described as the operations chief for Lashkar-e-Taiba, the group blamed for the series of bombings and shootings in the heart of the Mumbai that killed 166 people.

He is one of seven people on trial at the Adiala jail in Rawalpindi in connection with the attacks. Abbasi said the trial is continuing, with a list of more than 150 witnesses, and Lakhvi must attend the next hearing that is scheduled for Wednesday.

His Pakistani passport was earlier handed over to court authorities.

Lakhvi was first granted bail in December and a court ordered his release March 13 after Abbasi filed a complaint that his client was being held unlawfully.

But Lakhvi had remained jailed amid mounting pressure on Pakistan to confront extremists more actively. A court on Thursday again ordered his release.

Lashkar-e-Taiba is an Islamic militant group founded by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, who now heads a charity known as Jamaatud-Dawa, or JuD, which denies any links to the armed group.

In this Thursday, Jan. 1 photo, Zaki-ur-Rahman Lakhvi, the main suspect of the Mumbai terror attacks in 2008, raises his fist after his court appearance in Islamabad, Pakistan.

Lakhvi could not be reached for comment after his release. A Jamaatud-Dawa official denied a request Friday for an interview with Lakhvi.

Pakistan has long viewed armed groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba as allies in its decades-long struggle with India over the disputed region of Kashmir. The group is formally banned in Pakistan, but is widely believed to be protected by the country’s powerful intelligence service.

India has repeatedly urged Pakistan to pursue the case more actively.

Islamabad faced renewed pressure following the December attack by the Taliban on a school in the Pakistani city of Peshawar that killed nearly 150 people, mainly children.

In expressing his government’s “strong concern” about Lakhvi’s release, India’s External Affairs Ministry spokesman Syed Akbaruddin said: “This has

reinforced the perception that Pakistan has a dual policy on dealing with terrorists.”

“Those who have carried out attacks or are posing a threat to India are being dealt with differently,” he said, adding that the release was “a most negative development insofar as bilateral ties are concerned.”

In Washington, State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke said the U.S. was “gravely concerned” about Lakhvi’s release and shared its concerns with senior Pakistani officials.

“Pakistan has pledged its cooperation in bringing the perpetrators, financiers, and sponsors of the Mumbai terrorist attacks to justice, and we urge Pakistan to follow through on that commitment to insure justice for the 166 innocent people, including six Americans, who lost their lives,” Rathke said.

In India, a lawmaker

from the opposition Congress Party, Anand Sharma, said the release “calls into question the sincerity of the Pakistan government.”

Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry rejected the allegations, saying the case was still being adjudicated.

“It would not be proper to cast aspersions on Pakistan’s commitment to countering terrorism at a time when Pakistan has entered a critical stage of defeating the menace of terrorism,” spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam said in a statement.

She accused India of “inordinate delay” in helping with the case, saying it had weakened the prosecution. “We respect the judicial process and are confident that it would serve the interest of justice,” she said.

Abbasi told The Associated Press that India had failed to provide enough evidence to keep Lakhvi in detention.

GWOZA, Nigeria (AP) — As the turbaned militant lifted his head from his Quran and readied to dash to his anti-aircraft gun, the helicopter pilot stuck the nose of his aircraft into the air and veered away. Then he called in the coordinates for an airstrike.

It was a chilling reminder that Boko Haram extremists still are in northeast Nigeria with all sorts of weapons even as Nigeria’s military officials boast that they have ousted them from all major towns and forest camps.

Each day brings new reports of atrocities, with mass graves being discovered in towns seized back from the militants who had tried to set up an “Islamic caliphate” across a great swath of northeast Nigeria.

Just this week, survivors described how the insurgents arrived in a village, saying they had come to preach Islam. When villagers gathered in front of the mosque, the extremists opened fire. When some ran into the mosque, the militants set it ablaze, burning alive some of their victims.

“As I speak to you, all the towns they previously occupied ... have been cleared, so they really have no base,” said defense ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Chris Olukolade. “All we are doing at the moment is mopping up and conducting cordon and search for weapons and as many of them as may be straggling.”

Boko Haram has been left “marauding from place to place,” he told The Associated Press. The AP and journalists from other media organizations were taken on Wednesday by military helicopter to Gwoza, a “newly liberated” city of burned-out buildings.

On the outskirts, an Arabic script sign left by the militants was smashed to the ground. Decomposing bodies lay scattered, including those of a woman

and child. Others had lain there long enough to turn to skeletons.

A young man showed reporters the stump from his amputated right hand, chopped off with a machete under the harsh form of Islamic law imposed by the insurgents. They accused him of stealing fuel, a charge he denies.

“I told them I am a mechanic, and they said since you are a mechanic you will work for us,” said Hassan Usman, speaking in the local Hausa language. “When I told them I could not work for them, they said they would kill me.”

Just 35 kilometers (22 miles) away, Cameroonian troops were battling the insurgents, according to reports reaching The Associated Press in Maiduguri, the biggest city in northeastern Nigeria.

With soldiers from neighboring Chad, Cameroon and Niger, Boko Haram has been ousted in recent weeks from towns held for months. But Chadian President Idriss Deby has complained that Nigeria’s military is not doing its part.

“Two months after the beginning of this war, we have not had a single direct contact on the ground with units of the Nigerian army. This is why, more than once, Chadian forces have been obliged to retake towns and advance again,” Deby said in an interview published March 26 in the French magazine Le Point.

Olukolade did not respond directly to questions about border towns that have been seized by Chadian troops who then withdraw, leaving Boko Haram to return.

Boko Haram’s nearly 6-year-old Islamic uprising in northeast Nigeria that has killed thousands — a reported 10,000 just last year — and forced more than 1.5 million from their homes.

Toddler disc jockey fascinates his fans JOHANNESBURG (AP) — At first it seems like a fluke — a 2-year-old playing with the knobs and buttons of a sophisticated music system. Yet, the pint size boy is in control of the beat of the bass-heavy house music. He is South Africa’s youngest disc jockey, DJ AJ. At a shopping mall appearance, a crowd gathers around the young boy as he bops his head to the beat, his large headphones slipping off. Adults whip out their cellphones to capture the moment.

At about a year old, DJ AJ learned how to manipulate the gadget. Not satisfied with number recognition games, he began to fiddle with his father’s DJ app.

The parents were blown away when their son, still in diapers, repeated what he had learned on the app on actual DJ equipment, playing with sound effects and bouncing between songs. A cellphone video of him playing went viral and now DJ AJ has nearly 25,000 Facebook fans.

Coalition within community gives Eastside Little Leaguers new field for opening day

By Doug Walp Record Sports Editor

Saturday was not just opening day for Eastside Little League’s 2015 season, it also marked the first-ever games played on the newly renovated majors field.

But it was only because of some commendable generosity from a number of individuals and local businesses from around the Roswell community that the field was completed in time.

Perhaps the single-biggest source of contributions came from Travis Hicks, CEO of Desert Sun Auto and a Roswell resident, although he shies away from any credit or recognition for his work in the endeavor.

“I’m not looking for any publicity, I’m not looking for credit, this is just something I’m doing for the kids,” said a humble Hicks.

“I feel like these kids on the east-side kind of get an unfair shake. They’re playing on public fields just like the kids in other parts of town, but they don’t get the same quality of fields. They really don’t get much of anything, and after spending some time trying to figure out how to get it done through the normal channels, we just decided that we ought do it ourselves.”

Despite Hicks’ remarkable humility, former New

The Indians and Rangers of the Eastside Little League “major” league open up the new season on the recently renovated major field off 2nd and Garden Ave. in Roswell Mexico Sen. Tim Jennings said Hicks indeed deserves plenty of praise and recognition for leading the charge for the endeavor.

“Travis and Desert Sun put some real serious money in,” Jennings said.

“They just totally rebuilt the field. They probably took

Dexter Demons power their way to doubleheader sweep

By Doug Walp Record Sports Editor The Dexter varsity baseball team scored 26 runs over two games and used a late comeback in game two to ultimately sweep a district doubleheader against Texico Saturday afternoon at Dexter High School to remain unbeaten in district competition so far this season.

Pitcher Dominic Lomeli and the Demons made quick work of Texico in game one, as Dexter (117, 4-0) topped the Wolverines (9-6, 0-2) 13-3 in six innings due to the 10-run mercy rule.

Lomeli tossed a complete game in the win, allowing six hits while striking out six.

“Dom’s been throwing real well for us,” said Dexter coach Arturo Duran.

Lomeli also helped himself out at the plate as he went 3-for-4 in game one. Also contributing offensively for Dexter were Mario Contreras (3-for-4) and David Miramontes, who finished 2-for-4 at the plate.

After the mercy-rule win in game one, things were a bit more difficult in the second game as Dexter eventually downed Texico 13-12 on a walkoff single in the bottom of the seventh inning by Edgar Saenz.

The Demons staked themselves to a 3-0 lead

after two innings, but Texico struck back with a four-spot in the top of the third to take a 4-3 lead.

Dexter would counter again and retake the lead at 7-4. In the top of the fourth inning, Texico would plate five more runs to take a 9-7 lead, before adding three more in the top of the fifth to make it 12-7 Texico.

But the Demons never gave up, and scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth to trim the lead back to 12-11, before adding another run in the bottom of the sixth to tie the game at 12 apiece.

“We liked the fight that they showed,” Duran said of his resilient team.

“We were down 12-7 and we could have folded at any time, but they came out and decided to come together and hit the ball and put it in play when we needed to. The boys showed a lot of confidence at the plate, even when we were down, so that’s always promising as a coach.”

Lomeli opened up the all-important bottom of the seventh inning with a double, and then Saenz brought him home to win the game with a walk-off single.

“He came up in a tough spot,” Duran said of Saenz. “He had been struggling at the plate a bit the last couple games, but he came up today See DEXTER, Page B2

hundreds of yards of dirt out of there.”

In addition to completely replacing the infield and renovating the entire playing surface, Jennings said Hicks was also finally able to track down some hardto-find 13-foot fencing in El Paso, Texas, which Hicks

arranged to be picked up and brought back Friday night so the field would be ready for Saturday.

“He did all that just to give those kids a chance,” Jennings said.

Hicks in essence spearheaded the coalition, providing significant funding

and organizing a good deal of the work carried out on the field.

But Hicks also credited those individuals and businesses that got in and actually got their hands dirty with the project.

“It would be unfair not to mention Jim Wade and

Wade Construction, who really came through in the clutch for us. The City, to be fair, put a lot of effort this week into helping us put the thing together. Roswell’s Do It Center was a big help. George Krasowski came through when we needed him and some dump trucks,” Hicks said.

“The bottom line is that the majors field at Eastside Little League was in disrepair, to the extent that it was really almost dangerous.

There were a lot of people that circled the wagons to make this thing happen. I just made some phone calls and wrote a check.”

Hicks said he ultimately was proud of what everyone had accomplished, but also noted there are a few things left to finish up with the majors field although the field is now officially playable.

“It’s close, we got really close,” Hicks said. “We’re still missing a little bit of fence behind and the backstop – they just didn’t have enough hardware to finish.

But they have a new playing surface, and a whole new infield. It’s a nice, safe park, and that’s really what we were after. We just wanted to give them something they could be proud of, and something to make them feel like they weren’t kind of perpetually left out.”

Olivas tosses no-hitter, Roswell rolls to doubleheader sweep over Moriarty

By Doug Walp Record Sports Editor

The Lady Coyotes closed out their non-district schedule Saturday with a pair of lopsided victories in a doubleheader sweep over Moriarty during Senior Day at Roswell High School.

Pregame ceremonies included recognition of Roswell’s four seniors and their parents. Those in attendance also had a chance to pay tribute to countless individuals and families afflicted by breast cancer, as the Lady Coyotes promoted breast cancer awareness by donning pink uniforms. A little over $250 dollars, which will be donated to a local cancer society, was raised during the game with a bake sale put on by the Lady Coyotes’ parents.

“It was a special day overall,” said Roswell coach Art Sandoval. “It’s a big deal, it really is. It hits home for me, just because of some of the history with my own family.”

After the touching pregame, the Lady Coyotes took the field and made quick work of Moriarty in game one, as Roswell was victorious 15-0 in just four innings of play.

The star of the opening game had to be Roswell starter Mykaya Olivas, who actually fired a no-hitter against the Fighting Pintos in the mercy rule-shortened game one. Olivas also

“I applaud and congratulate my pitcher,” Sandoval said. “She’s done a fabulous job this year. I commend her a ton.”

But Sandoval also said that even individual feats like Olivas’ no-hitter, is a by-product of his team really coming together and playing as a single unit.

“Without a catcher, we don’t have a no-hitter,” Sandoval said. “Without the defense, our shortstop, our center fielder, whoever it is, without them we can’t make that happen. I think she [Olivas) would feel the same way. I think she,

along with her teammates, would say there’s no ‘I’ in ‘Team’, and it was a team effort.

“Offense wins games and defense wins championships, and I’m going to tell you something right now, our defense has played pretty well so far.”

While Olivas provided lights-out pitching for the Lady Coyotes, her twin sister Mykaela took care of things on the offensive side for Roswell.

Olivas finished 3-for-4 at the plate in game one, with three doubles and 6-RBIs. Leadoff hitter Sheyanne Sandoval was 3-for-3 with a walk, a pair of RBIs and four runs scored. CeeAudra

Mein was 2-for-3 with two runs scored, while Kianna Reese was 1-for-3 with a pair of RBIs. Isabella Cain and Alexis Acevedo were also both 1-for-3, with an RBI apiece. Roswell had 15 hits in game one alone.

“Hitting-wise, we really had a great day,” Sandoval said. “We hit the ball hard.

We hit some home runs, we were turning singles into doubles, and we were being aggressive. The kids were having fun, the fans were having fun, it was just a great day for softball.”

Roswell again won by the 10-run mercy rule in the second game, although it See ROSWELL, Page B2

Logano dream of racing Jeff Gordon for win reality at Texas

AP Photo

In this April 7, 2014, file photo, Joey Logano (22) passes Jeff Gordon (24) on the last lap of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Joey Logano had dreams as a kid of racing Jeff Gordon to the checkered flag.

That was reality a year ago at Texas, when Logano made a last-lap pass of Gordon in the NASCAR Sprint Cup race.

“When you’re 6-years-old — I remember that part, and having all of his gear, and all the (No.) 24 stuff,” Logano said. “It’s still cool, you’re racing against your childhood hero, and last year at Texas to be able to pass him for the win like that. That was a really cool moment.”

Logano was leading and about to take the white flag when a late caution came out instead. Gordon exited pit road first after the ensuing stop, but Logano recovered during NASCAR’s version of overtime for the first of five wins in a breakout year.

The Team Penske driver has carried that momentum into this season, starting with a win in the Daytona 500 and finishing in the top 10 in all six Sprint Cup races. Logano is second in points going into Saturday night’s Duck Commander 500 at Texas, after the series was off last weekend for Easter.

Gordon makes the first of his two trips to Texas in his last full-time Cup season, returning to the scene of that post-race melee last November involving Logano’s teammate, Brad Keselowski, and their respective teams. Contact with Keselowski during extra laps ended Gordon’s shot at winning the eighth of 10 races in the Chase for the

Sprint Cup — and his fifth season title.

Keselowski qualified third for the first night Cup race of the season, with Kurt Busch the polesitter. Logano will start sixth, and Gordon 12th.

While Gordon and Keselowski may have moved past what happened five months ago, Texas Motor Speedway president Eddie Gossage has certainly had fun with it.

Billboards promoting the race in North Texas showed a puffy-faced Keselowski with the slogan, “Left turns and right crosses!” Others listed “Gordon’s Last Stand!” with a picture of a stern-looking Gordon.

“Got to have fun with this stuff, don’t take it serious,” said Gossage, who saw Gordon about a month after that race.

QB Johnny Manziel released from rehab

AP Photo

In this Dec. 14, 2014 file photo, Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel warms up before an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals in Cleveland.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Johnny Manziel has taken the first steps in his comeback.

The popular Browns quarterback was released from a rehab facility Saturday after more than 10 weeks, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press.

The 2012 Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M entered the undisclosed clinic, which specializes in drug and alcohol rehabilitation, on Jan. 28 for treatment of an unspecified problem. Manziel is expected to participate in Cleveland’s offseason workouts beginning April 20, the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of privacy issues.

Manziel had been allowed to leave for short periods over the past month and visited a hospital earlier in the week as part of his treatment program.

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and coach Mike Pettine have publicly pledged their support of Manziel, emphasizing that his personal recovery comes ahead of football. Pettine visited Manziel while he was in rehab and reported he was making good progress.

“Football, it’s a back seat,” Pettine said at the

owners meetings last month in Phoenix. “For his football life to get it where it needs to be, he needs to get the personal life where it needs to be. This takes precedence, so however long of time he needs, the football will be there when he gets out.”

Manziel’s release was first reported by ESPN. The team remains optimistic about Manziel, who was drafted with the No. 22 overall pick in last year’s NFL draft. Manziel spent most of his rookie season backing up Brian Hoyer before playing poorly in two starts.

Manziel joined the Browns with the reputation as a party boy, and he didn’t do anything to refute that image when he was photographed in nightclubs before he even went to training camp with Cleveland.

The Browns insisted they weren’t going to micro-manage any of their players, and throughout the season Pettine said Manziel was working hard and taking the necessary steps to become a better player.

But after his poor on-field performance — he was injured in his second start — Manziel acknowledged he should have

taken his job more seriously and vowed to come back for his second season more prepared and focused.

“I did grow up and then I took a step back,” he said after last season. “It is the same story with me. We’re taking one step forward and then two steps back.”

Manziel showed he was serious when he checked himself into the facility, a decision met with approval by the Browns.

They still believe Manziel can be a dependable quarterback, and he is expected to compete for the starting job this year along with 11-year veteran Josh McCown, signed as a free agent during the offseason.

Cleveland also hired quarterbacks coach Kevin O’Connell, who worked with Manziel before last year’s draft and has a strong relationship with him.

Haslam has said finding a franchise quarterback is the team’s No. 1 priority, and there’s a chance the Browns could use one of their two first-round picks in this year’s draft to find one. It’s also possible they’ll trade up in hopes of selecting Oregon’s Marcus Mariota, considered the best QB in this class behind Florida State’s Jameis Winston.

Mets’ Mejia banned 80 games, 4th MLB positive within 16 days

ATLANTA (AP) — Injured New York Mets closer Jenrry Mejia was suspended for 80 games Saturday, the fourth player in 16 days banned under the major league drug program following a positive test for the steroid Stanozolol.

Minnesota pitcher Ervin Santana, Seattle pitcher David Rollins and Atlanta pitcher Arodys Vizcaino also have been disciplined in recent weeks for Stanozolol, which is sold under the name Winstrol and is popular with body builders.

A person familiar with the penalties told The Associated Press that MLB has not yet found any links to the four positive tests. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the probe is ongoing.

Asked Saturday whether the Major League Baseball Players Association was worried there was a connection to the four positive tests for Stanozolol, union spokesman Greg Bouris said: “We are always concerned when there’s a positive test, regardless of the substance.”

Mejia will lose $1,134,426 of his $2,595,000 salary because of the suspension.

“We’re very disappointed, extremely disappointed,” Mets manager Terry Collins said. “We came into this whole thing in spring training with huge expectations and the back end of our bullpen being very, very strong, so we’re all shocked and disappointed.”

Mejia began the season as New York’s closer while Bobby Parnell completes his recovery from Tommy John surgery, but Mejia couldn’t get loose while warming up during Monday’s opener at Washington. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with posterior elbow inflammation, with-

out having pitched in a game. His time on the DL counts toward suspension.

The 25-year-old Mejia released a statement through the players’ union saying he knows the rules and accepts his punishment, but “can honestly say I have no idea how a banned substance ended up in my system.”

Spieth sets another Masters record, has 4-shot lead

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Jordan Spieth seized control of the Masters with a performance not seen since another 21-year-old, Tiger Woods, first blazed his way around Augusta National.

He made four birdies in five holes on the back nine to stretch his lead to seven shots. Standing on the 17th tee, he already was on the same score — 18-under par — that only Woods had ever reached in the Masters.

And then it all changed Saturday in two holes.

Out of nowhere, Spieth made a double bogey.

Ahead of him, former U.S. Open champion Justin Rose poured in a 20-foot birdie.

In the worst spot he had been all week, Spieth ended 30 minutes of chaos with a bold shot that saved his par, set another Masters scoring record and gave the 21-yearold Texan a four-shot lead over Rose going into the final round.

On a day of charges and cheers for the biggest names in golf — Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Phil Mickelson — Spieth now gets to return and do this all over again.

“We’ve got a long way to go,” Spieth said after his 2-under 70.

It might have felt even longer without one last display of his exquisite short game. Spieth put his approach on the 18th into the gallery, right of the green, behind a bunker with the green below and running away from him. He took the high-risk option that offered his best chance to save par — a flop shot off a tight lie — and pulled it off to perfection.

Spieth saved par from 10 feet to stay at 16-under 200, breaking by one the 54-hole record held by Woods (1997) and Raymond Floyd (1976).

“That just took some guts,” Spieth said. “And having been in this scenario, or having been in contention enough, having been on tour for a few years, I felt comfortable enough playing that full flop. If you caught me a year-and-a-half ago, I probably never would have played that shot in that scenario.

“Seeing any putts go in on

Jordan Spieth watches his hit out of a bunker at the seventh hole during the third round of the Masters golf tournament Saturday in Augusta, Ga. Spieth shot a 2-under 70 Saturday.

18 is nice,” he said. “I would like to have maybe a couple of them” on Sunday.

Considering the shrinking size of his lead and the caliber of players behind him, Spieth might need them.

Rose closed with five birdies on his last six holes for a 67, and that birdie on the 18th put him in the final group for the first time in a major.

“Jordan was so far ahead that it was almost ... you were just playing your own game,” Rose said. “It was nice to stay patient and get rewarded with a hot finish.

It’s amazing, and it put me in with a great opportunity tomorrow.”

Mickelson wore a pink shirt in honor of Arnold Palmer because he knew he

needed a big charge, and the three-time Masters champion delivered a 40-foot birdie putt on the 16th hole on his way to a 67, despite two bogeys on the back nine.

Mickelson was five shots behind.

Woods and McIlroy will play together in the final round of a major for the first time, though both are 10 shots behind.

Spieth knew what he was facing even before he started.

Woods, who for three rounds has made everyone forget about that guy who shot 82 in the Phoenix Open earlier this year, ran off three straight birdies early in the round, and he threw a victorious fist pump after a most improbable birdie on

It was the third straight year that the NCAA has crowned a first-time champion in hockey.

BU was seeking its sixth championship in a virtual home game when O’Connor easily gloved a puck that was lofted in by Kyle McKenzie from the red line. But he then lost track of the puck, dropping it and allowing it to fall underneath him. He slid backward to protect the net and wound up knocking it in with 8:36 to play.

Tanev scored off a faceoff to give the Friars the lead, and Jon Gillies helped protect it with a diving save against Nick Roberto in the final minutes. Gillies, selected the

Most Outstanding Player of the Frozen Four, stopped 49 saves for PC (26-13-2).

Anthony Florentino and Mark Jankowski also scored for the Friars, who were the last school to be given an at-large berth in 16-team NCAA Tournament.

The PC fans who made the one-hour drive from the Rhode Island capital drowned out the sound of the final buzzer, and the players stormed over the boards to celebrate after the school’s second trip to the Frozen Four, its first since 1985.

BU players skated slowly over to O’Connor to console him after the loss.

Ahti Oksanen and Danny O’Regan scored an NCAA Tournament-record 4 seconds apart for the Terriers (28-8-5) to overcome an early deficit, and Cason Hohmann gave BU a 3-2 lead in the second period. O’Connor stopped 39 shots.

the 13th hole. McIlroy made eagle on his second hole, went out in 32 and inched closer to Spieth on the back nine.

Both of them stalled at the end. McIlroy made bogey on two of the last three holes for a 68. Woods made a bogey from the bunker on the 18th for his 68.

For a short time late in the afternoon, Spieth made the green jacket ceremony seem like a formality.

Four shots ahead of Charley Hoffman, Spieth buried a 10-foot putt on the 12th hole and another birdie from about the same distance at the 13th. He followed a three-putt bogey on the 14th hole by making two more birdies, and his lead was up

to seven shots as the trees began casting long shadows.

He looked in total control at what is the most peaceful time of the day at Augusta National.

And then it was shattered.

Spieth chipped weakly to the 17th green and three-putted for a double bogey.

It was a reminder how quickly comfort can vanish.

A year ago, Spieth was on the wrong end of a four-shot swing over two holes in the final round at Augusta. He went from a two-shot lead to a two-shot deficit and never caught up to Bubba Watson.

“Last year definitely left a bad taste in my mouth,” Spieth said. “I’ve been looking to get back, looking at trying to get some revenge.”

The story line should sound familiar — a 21-yearold with a four-shot lead going after his first major at Augusta National. Four years ago, that was McIlroy, who shot 80 in the final round. Now it’s Spieth’s turn, and he at least knows what to expect.

“I think the good thing for him is he’s already experienced it once,” McIlroy said.

“He’s played in the final group at the Masters before.

It didn’t quite happen for him last year, but I think he’ll have learned from that experience. I think all that put together, he’ll definitely handle it a lot better than I did.”

Rockies down Cubs 5-1, off to first 4-0 start since ‘95

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Tyler Matzek throws to the plate against the Chicago Cubs during the first inning of a baseball game on opening day, Friday in Denver.

DENVER (AP) — It’s not the wins but the way they’re winning that gives the Colorado Rockies faith this season can be different.

They’re 4-0, tying the 1995 team for the best start in franchise history. They’ve done it by combining errorless defense, stellar pitching and timely hitting — all things that eluded them while averaging 93 losses over the last four seasons.

“I think we’re a tougher team than we’ve been in the past,” Troy Tulowitzki said after sparking the Rockies to a 5-1 win over the Chicago Cubs in their home opener Friday.

That followed a threegame sweep in Milwaukee for a team that went just 20-61 on the road last year.

“I know it’s (only) four games, and I don’t want to get too excited. But these guys are playing a little bit different,” Tulowitzki said.

“They’ve got that look in the eye that I like to see.”

Justin Morneau homered and Rockies relievers were outstanding in relief of a shaky but wily Tyler Matzek, allowing just one hit — a bunt single by Anthony Rizzo with the shift on — in five innings.

Right-hander Christian Bergman (1-0) picked up the win by retiring both batters he faced, one on a double play, in the fifth after coming in with two men on and nobody out.

Matzek became the first Rockies starting pitcher ever to bat eighth, and Colorado second baseman D.J. LeMahieu went 3 for 4 from the No. 9 spot, including a RBI single following Matzek’s two-out double in the second.

With fellow lefty Travis Wood (0-1) also batting eighth, this marked the first game that both starting pitchers batted in that spot

since St. Louis’ Joel Pineiro and Pittsburgh’s Ian Snell did it on July 13, 2008, according to STATS. Both managers said the unconventional strategy allows for a more potent No. 2 hitter, and Tulowitzki proved the point with a two-run double down the left-field line off Wood that broke a 1-1 tie in the fifth.

“As long as I’m playing and in the lineup, I’ll hit anywhere,” Tulowitzki said after seeing his name in the No. 2 spot in the starting lineup for the first time since May 27, 2009. “It doesn’t matter to me, as long as I get RBI opportunities. I love those RBI situations. I love being up there in the clutch. It’s what I live for.”

Wood was cruising until Tulowitzki’s screamer into the left-field corner.

“One pitch to Tulo pretty much erased everything,” Wood said. “I threw a cutter up and in and somehow he kept it fair. That’s why he is who he is and that was pretty much it.”

Matzek was wild all day — just 40 strikes in 84 pitches — and he left after allowing a walk and a single to start the fifth. He gave up an earned run on Matt Szczur’s sacrifice fly in the third, on four hits, walked three, plunked Rizzo twice and threw a wild pitch.

Morneau greeted righthander Brian Schlitter with his first homer leading off the sixth for his 1,500th hit, and Corey Dickerson added a run-scoring single.

“We had plenty of opportunities. We had the runners out there,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said.

“Their pitcher was struggling. We had plenty of opportunities. The weather was fine. They found their way through it. We did not get the big hit. They did.”

Brett Leach

Brett Leach, 67, of Roswell, NM, passed away Friday, April 3, 2015. He was born November 21, 1947, in Portales, NM, to Ernest J. and Veda Mae Leach who preceded him in death.

He graduated from Portales High School in 1965 and from Eastern New Mexico University earning both bachelor and master’s degrees in 1969 and 1971, respectively. He did post-graduate studies in criminal justice. He lived in Roswell with his wife Andi.

Brett began his adult career as a probation and parole officer in Lea and Chaves counties with the NM Department of Corrections. His interest in criminal investigation led him to develop and teach at the Law Enforcement Education Department for the Clovis campus of ENMU. In 1978, he made a career change and went to work as a financial advisor with EF Hutton and Company in Roswell, NM. He had some tenure with Merrill Lynch and Dean Witter and was still serving his clients until his death with the firm Southwest Securities.

Brett started the Invitational Golf Tournament and directed it for 32 years.

He served on the board and for several years as president of Rotary’s Desert Sun Classic golf tournament. He is a past member of Kiwanis and a founding member and past president of Roswell’s Sunrise Rotary Club, where he was recognized by his club as a Paul Harris Fellow. He served on the board of directors for CASA for 15 years, with three years as president.

He was appointed by the Governor in 2011 to serve a six-year term on the Board of Regents for Eastern New Mexico University where he also served as president.

Brett had many special interests. He was a certified golf club builder, a noted

pit master, and a certified appraiser of firearms. He prided himself in his ability to disassemble, repair, and reassemble most any firearm. If a need came along for a skill set he didn’t have, he would contact the manufacturer and get instruction. Several videos were made using his technique and his firearms.

Brett loved the outdoors.

He was an avid hunter and considered September 1 a national holiday when dove season opened. He was known to camp with his hunting buddies in some of the nicest condos in New Mexico and Colorado. Golf was his real passion and for many years his talent led him to win several golf tournaments including the club championship at his home courses in both Portales and Roswell. As much as he loved golf, he loved the golf group even more.

After he was no longer able to play, Brett would often get a cart and follow his friends around the course and then join them on the patio for post-game activities. He loved Notre Dame and especially Notre Dame football. He was a formidable foe at cards, especially bridge, spades, gin and poker. He cherished his trips to Las Vegas, the numerous golf trips, and an occasional trip to the horse races.

Brett is survived by his wife Andi Smith of Roswell, NM, his daughter, Kristen Harrington and husband Peter of Bailey, CO, daughter, Sara Wagner and husband Noel of Fort Worth, TX, grandsons Will Harrington and Cooper Wagner, his sister Tonya Williams of Albuquerque, NM, his adopted brother, Charlie Craig and wife Beverly Kay of Lubbock, TX, his niece Stacey Williams Abdalla and husband Chris of Albuquerque, NM, and, great-nephew Aidan Abdalla.

Brett fought a courageous battle against ALS and never lost his incredible spirit and sense of humor.

Respecting Brett’s wishes, there will be a wake in his honor on Saturday, April 18 at 6 p.m. at the Roswell Country Club.

Memorial contributions can be made to CASA, PO Box 2131, Roswell, NM 88202-2131.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory.

Additionally, there are 15 great-grandchildren.

Dorothy was an accomplished musician. She started piano lessons at the age of 6, violin lessons at the age of 8 and studied organ under Thelma Akin.

She was a Charter member of the Roswell Sympho-

ny that started in the basement of the First Methodist Church under Glenn Cunningham, and continued as a member of the Orchestra for many years, and was instrumental in the organization of the Roswell Symphony Guild.

Dorothy was organist for the First Presbyterian Church and Westminster Presbyterian Church, both in Roswell. She finally retired from the role of church organist in her 80s but continued to play for weddings and funerals.

She graduated from Roswell High School in 1940, attended North Texas State University in Denton, TX, for one year, and married John on July 5, 1941.

While John was overseas during WWII she took a temporary job in the Chaves County Clerk’s office which turned into a permanent career until John was transferred by Mountain State Bell Telephone Company to Clovis in 1967. While in Clovis, Dorothy worked as legal secretary for Attorney Lyle Walker. The couple returned to Roswell in 1973 from Clovis when John had the opportunity to transfer back to their hometown. After their return she was legal secretary for Attorney Paul Snead and then for the law firm of Atwood & Malone.

Throughout her adult life Dorothy loved and was very involved in politics. She remained true to her political beliefs.

At her insistence, her epitaph and the way she wants to be remembered is, “Thanks for inviting me, I had a wonderful time.”

Memorials may be made in Dorothy’s name to Roswell Symphony Orchestra, 1717 W. 2nd St. No. 205, Roswell NM 88201; First United Methodist Church of Roswell, 200 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Roswell, NM, 88203.

UNCF president seeks new generation of donors WASHINGTON (AP) — Michael Lomax, head of the United Negro College Fund, isn’t shy about ruffling feathers for his cause.

Lomax made headlines last year when he unapologetically announced a $25 million grant from Koch Industries Inc. and the Charles Koch Foundation — a powerhouse name in conservative politics.

President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, have personally donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to the fund, but that hasn’t stopped Lomax from criticizing some of the Obama administration’s proposals, such as efforts to rate America’s colleges and universities and to provide free community college.

On Sunday in Atlanta, the UNCF holds its 36th annual telethon.

Lomax sees the event as part of a greater effort to recruit a new generation of African-American stars to donate to the organization, which distributes millions in aid annually to historically black colleges and

universities and provides scholarships to racial and ethnic minority students to attend all types of institutions.

Five things to know about the UNCF, based on an Associated Press interview with Lomax:

Koch Donation

The UNCF faced criticism from some areas for taking the Koch donation. But Lomax said that for seven decades — stemming from a 1944 campaign started by oil baron John D. Rockefeller — UNCF has sought donations from people of all political persuasions. “We have always, always said our cause is universal and all Americans should support it,” Lomax said.

The UNCF got 1,800 applications for 44 positions in a Koch-funded entrepreneur program in a matter of weeks.

Lomax said he doesn’t discuss politics with the Kochs. “What we talk about is the one thing we share

a belief in, that young people should be given support to get a good education, and by the way more of them should be given the opportunity to become entrepreneurs,” he said.

Recruiting New Donors

The telethon has raised hundreds of millions, and Lomax said a new generation has stepped up to replace entertainers such as the late singer Lou Rawls, the longtime host.

Lomax said contributions are now coming from people like comedian Kevin Hart, musicians Pharrell, Trey Songz and Usher and NBA superstar Chris Paul, and other entertainers who may or may not have attended historically black colleges and universities but whose parents did.

Capitol Hill Buzz: Trade is great or awful, take your pick WASHINGTON (AP) — Good news, folks. Expanded trade agreements help Americans in all 50 states. The government told us so, this week.

No, wait. It turns out expanded trade is BAD in all 50 states. Or so says Public Citizen, a leading opponent of President Barack Obama’s bid to sign a new trade deal with 11 Pacific rim nations.

Both the government and the private group issued slick, color-coded reports with interactive maps this week. Needless to say, they used different data to reach their opposite conclusions.

The first report, “United States of Trade,” was issued Thursday by the Commerce Department and the U.S. trade representative. For each state, it shows the value of goods exported last year, and compares it to 10 years ago.

The report doesn’t explicitly predict how each state might benefit from new trade agreements. But it shows the value of goods already being exported to countries now in trade talks with the United States.

“Access to global markets is benefiting small businesses across our nation,” the report says. “With 95 percent of the

world’s customers living outside of U.S. borders, there is enormous potential” for further growth through exports.

On Friday, Public Citizen announced: “We couldn’t let USTR’s 50-state report on the impact of trade go unanswered.”

So the group issued its own state-by-state report.

It shows the number of manufacturing jobs lost since 1994, the year the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect. Pro-trade groups say NAFTA played a small role in the erosion of U.S. manufacturing jobs.

Clinton to announce presidential campaign

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton will end months of speculation about her political future and launch her long-awaited 2016 presidential campaign on Sunday, according to people familiar with her plans.

The first official word that Clinton will seek the Democratic Party’s nomination will come via an online video posted on social media. She’ll then make stops in key early voting states, including Iowa and New Hampshire, where she’ll hold small events with voters.

One Democrat familiar with campaign rollout said Clinton’s stops would include visits to people’s homes in those early states.

The people familiar with Clinton’s plans spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss them publicly.

The former secretary of state will be making her second bid for president and will enter the race in a strong position to succeed her rival from the 2008 Democratic primary, President Barack Obama. Clinton appears unlikely to face a stiff primary opponent, though a handful of lower-profile Democrats have said they are considering their own campaigns.

Should she win the nomination, Clinton would face the winner of a Republican primary season that could feature as many as two dozen candidates. Among them, Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who is expected to formally announce his campaign in Miami on Monday — a day after Clinton’s announcement on social media.

Clinton will return to politics following a two-year leave from government.

If elected, the former first lady would be the nation’s first female president.

Republicans have been preparing for a second Clinton campaign since she left Obama’s administration in early 2013. They intend to campaign against her by equating her potential presidency to that of a “third” Obama term, during which they argue she would continue his most unpopular policies.

Clinton’s announcement was preceded by withering criticism over her use of a personal email account and server while she was secretary of state, as well as the Clinton Foundation’s acceptance of donations from foreign governments.

She said at a news conference last month she used the personal email account for convenience.

Republicans running a select congressional committee reviewing the 2012 attack on a U.S. facility in Benghazi, Libya, which took place during Clinton’s tenure at the State Department, are investigating her decision to delete thousands of emails she has

deemed personal in nature.

By campaigning heavily in Iowa and New Hampshire, Clinton hopes to avoid making the same stumbles against Obama as she did in the 2008 Iowa caucuses, which he won in an upset. Democrats echoed hopes that she would seek personal connections this time.

Davenport, Iowa, Mayor Bill Gluba, a Democrat elected in a non-partisan election who backed Obama in 2008, said Clinton “kind of blew it last time” in the nation’s first caucus state. “She’s a very decent wonderful woman, but sometimes they come out of the New York atmosphere and they’re surrounded by staff and they’re insulated. We don’t want to see that,” he said.

“I’d like to have her come to Davenport and we’ll take a stroll along the Mississippi river and chit chat a little bit and just talk,” said Gluba, who recently had lunch with former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, who is also considering a campaign.

Clinton also sees such campaigning as a way not take for granted her formidable position in the Democratic field.

Among the Democrats who could challenge Clinton in the primary are O’Malley, former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee, former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb and Vice President Joe Biden.

In announcing her campaign, Clinton is likely to offer her most specific explanation for why she will seek the presidency again after months of offering glimpses into her rationale, including ways to address the gap between the rich and the poor and providing children and young people with more opportunities.

In a new epilogue released Friday to the paperback version of her State Department memoirs, “Hard Choices,” Clinton writes about the joy of becoming a grandmother for the first time — her granddaughter, Charlotte Clinton Mezvinsky, was born last September — and says it informs her work.

“Becoming a grandmother has made me think deeply about the responsibility we all share as stewards of the world we inherit and will one day pass on,” Clinton wrote in the epilogue, published by The Huffington Post. “Rather than make me want to slow down, it has spurred me to speed up.”

Clinton’s race is expected to cost more than the $1 billion Obama raised for his 2012 re-election and aides have said she is expected to focus heavily on online fundraising. Her campaign will be required to release its first fundraising report in July and it will be closely examined to measure the strength of her support.

Q&A: What is listeria?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Large food recalls have forced consumers to throw away hummus and ice cream that may be contaminated with the same potentially deadly bacteria — listeria.

Tainted Blue Bell ice cream products are linked to eight listeria illnesses in Kansas and Texas; three of those who contracted the illness have died.

Blue Bell has temporarily closed its facility in Broken Arrow, Okla., and shut down a production line at its facility in Brenham, Texas, where the company is headquartered. Blue Bell has recalled more than two dozen of its products since last month.

Sabra Dipping Co. announced a recall of 30,000 cases of its Classic Hummus due to possible listeria contamination this week, though no illnesses have been linked to that recall.

A look at the listeria bacteria and answers to questions that consumers may have:

What is listeria?

Listeria is a hardy bacteria found in soil and water that can be carried by animals. It is often found in processed meats because it

can contaminate a processing facility and stay there for a long period of time, and it can grow in the cold temperature of a refrigerator. It is also commonly found in unpasteurized cheeses and unpasteurized milk, and it is sometimes found in other foods as well — 30 people died in a 2011 listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupe.

made on production lines in Texas and Oklahoma after the ice cream was linked to eight illnesses, including three deaths, in Texas and Kansas. The Sabra hummus recall came after a product sample in Michigan tested positive for listeria; there are no known illnesses related to that recall.

How did this happen?

What are the symptoms?

State and federal inspectors are still investigating the ice cream outbreak and have not released a cause.

Contamination is often the result of dirty equipment or unsanitary conditions in a plant.

Am I at risk?

I may have one of these products in my home. What do I do?

When a person contracts the disease, it can cause fever, muscle aches, gastrointestinal symptoms and even death.

Listeria generally only affects the elderly, people with compromised immune systems and pregnant women. It can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, premature labor, and serious illness or death in newborn babies. Healthy, younger adults and most children can usually consume listeria with no ill effects or mild illness.

What has been recalled?

Blue Bell ice cream has recalled several products

The government’s motto is “when in doubt, throw it out.” If you throw something away that you think might be tainted, place it in a closed plastic bag in a sealed trash can to prevent animals or other people from eating it. The ice cream can have a shelf life of up to two years.

How can I protect myself against listeria?

In the case of the ice

cream and hummus recalls, there is nothing you can do to prevent it — just throw away the food if you learn it has been recalled. With fruit, scrubbing is never a bad idea, but it may not rid produce of all contaminants. In the case of the cantaloupe, the listeria likely hid on the fruit’s thick, rough skin.

Health officials think people may have been sickened when people cut into their cantaloupes, bringing listeria on the outside of the fruit to the inside.

Always clean surfaces that come into contact with food with hot, soapy water.

The government says the listeria bacteria can be killed by heating food to 165 degrees Fahrenheit or until it is steaming hot just before serving it.

Why is listeria so deadly?

Listeria is less wellknown than other pathogens like salmonella and E. coli, which cause many more illnesses in tainted food every year. But one in five people who get sick from listeria can die. The people who get sick from listeria are often already weaker and more vulnerable to disease.

Bombings kill 13 Afghans KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — A suicide car bomber targeting a convoy of U.S. troops in eastern Afghanistan killed three Afghan civilians and wounded four on Friday, while in another eastern province, 10 people were killed when their minivan hit a roadside bomb, officials said.

The international aid group Save the Children meanwhile said five of its local staff who had been abducted several weeks ago were found dead in the southern Uruzgan province.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the convoy attack, which took place near the U.S. military base not far from the airport in Jalalabad, the capital of Nangarhar province.

No American soldiers were wounded in the bombing, said Hazrat Hussain

Mashraqiwal, the spokesman for the provincial police chief.

The attack happened outside the gates of the base as the convoy was returning from an early patrol, according to an official at the base who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to media.

The area is built up, with residential housing mixed with retail outlets, mostly selling vehicles. Friday is the weekend in Afghanistan and the area is typically bustling with people.

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the insurgent group was behind the attack.

The bombing came just two days after an Afghan soldier turned his weapon on American troops.

Parade of likely GOP presidential candidates to speak to NRA

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The parade of potential Republican presidential candidates speaking at the National Rifle Association’s annual convention isn’t one to make waves with the powerful gun-rights group.

The contenders are sitting pretty in NRA ratings of their positions on gun issues, with scores ranging from A to A-minus.

The speakers get 10 minutes each on Friday to preach to the choir on their pro-gun bona fides.

“This is the ultimate choir,” said Chip Saltsman, who ran the 2008 presidential campaign of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, among speakers at the event. “Any time you get 70,000 pro-Second Amendment people in one place, it’s a good opportunity for anybody running on the Republican side.”

Indeed tens of thousands typically come for the convention and the activities surrounding it.

Among 2016 GOP prospects expecting a friendly reception: Sen. Ted Cruz and former Gov. Rick Perry of Texas; former Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida; Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal; Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker; former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania; Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina; and neurosurgeon Ben Carson.

Among those not coming: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who’s had a checkered relationship with the gun-rights lobby.

Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence canceled appearances.

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who launched his presidential campaign Tuesday, has a top rating from the NRA and was scheduled to be campaigning in Iowa.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — An Argentine judge has issued an arrest warrant for Justin Bieber on Friday, saying the singer failed to respond to summons related to allegations he ordered bodyguards to attack a photographer in 2013.

Judge Alberto Julio Banos ordered the “immediate detention” of Bieber and bodyguards Hugo Alcides Hesny and Terrence Reche Smalls.

An email sent to a Bieber representative was not immediately returned.

Bieber is accused of sending the bodyguards to attack photographer Diego Pesoa outside a Buenos Aires nightclub.

the governor clashed with the group when he blasted its ad accusing President Barack Obama of hypocrisy in opposing armed security guards in schools. Christie called the ad’s invocation of the president’s daughters “reprehensible.”

But Christie more recently drew praise from firearm rights advocates for his 2013 veto of a New Jersey ban on military-style, .50-caliber semi-automatic rifles, after the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut.

And last year he rejected gun control legislation that would have further reduced the maximum size of ammunition magazines in the state.

Rubio, Santorum and Jindal are speaking to their second annual NRA convention in a row; Walker and Cruz sent video messages last year.

“They all bring unique life experiences, and they’ve all supported the Second Amendment,” NRA spokeswoman Jennifer Barker said of the lineup. “This is an event that is a celebration of American values.”

Bush did not attend last year’s NRA meeting, though he has attended conferences in the past and as governor approved legislation supported by the group. In 2005, he signed the measure allowing people to use deadly force when threatened in public places. The law received attention after the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Fla., in 2012. But Bush has also supported instant background checks for gun-show purchases of firearms, an unpopular position with the NRA. Opposing groups plan a rally near the NRA event Saturday to press for more gun safety laws.

White House Brief: Things to know about Lincoln Chafee WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee made a surprise announcement Thursday that he was considering a Democratic presidential campaign in 2016.

Key things to know about Chafee:

The brief

Lincoln Chafee has built a reputation as a contrarian in a career that has included holding office as a Republican and as an independent. In the Senate, Chafee often clashed with fellow Republicans during the administration of President George W. Bush, then left the party after he lost his bid for re-election in 2006. Elected governor in 2010 as an independent, Chafee found it difficult to build coalitions among the two parties in the statehouse and did not seek another term in 2014. His decision to explore a presidential campaign perplexed many Democrats.

Résumé review

Chafee hails from a prominent Rhode Island political family. His late father was a U.S. senator and governor and he has at least two other Rhode Island governors and a U.S. senator in his family tree.

Chafee got his start in politics as a member of the Warwick, R.I., city council, and later served as mayor during the 1990s. He was appointed to the Senate when his father, Sen. John Chafee, died in office, and the younger Chafee won the seat outright in 2000.

Chafee was defeated by Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in 2006, but he resurrected his career as an independent, winning the governor’s office in 2010.

Facing poor approval ratings, he became a Demo-

In this Dec. 11 photo then-Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee responds to questions during an interview with The Associated Press, in his office at the Statehouse, in Providence, R.I. crat in 2013 but opted not to seek re-election.

Personal story

Chafee grew up on an estate in Warwick, where he developed a love of horses and had an early introduction to politics — his father was elected governor when he was 8. As an 11-year-old, Chafee attended the 1964 Republican National Convention and watched Sen. Barry Goldwater claim the party’s nomination. Chafee later attended Phillips Academy Andover, where he was a classmate of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. After graduating from Brown University, he worked as a blacksmith at harness race tracks in the U.S. and Canada before entering politics.

Calling card moment

Chafee was the only Republican in the Senate to vote against the war authorization against Iraq in 2002 and it could serve as

Patricia Hariston 575.840.6928 Manuel Aguirre 575.910.3765 Carmen Scafella 575.910.8890

Rural Roswell Circulation Department 575.622.7730

a key distinction if he runs against likely Democratic candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton, who voted for it.

At the time, Chafee supported a more narrowly constructed alternative that would have committed the United States to working with the United Nations in disarming Iraq and would have required Bush to come back to Congress for a second vote if he decided unilateral action was the only recourse.

Announcing his presidential exploratory committee, Chafee said the war authorization was a “mistake” and should disqualify anyone who supported it. “I don’t think the next president of the United States should have voted in favor of that mistake,” he said.

Early state action

To date, none. Chafee’s decision to explore a campaign came as a surprise to most. He said he intends to reach out to party officials in Iowa and New Hampshire, but he will explore

the contest accompanied by a small group of former advisers with few ties to presidential politics. Chafee and his wife, Stephanie, own a home in Laconia, N.H., according to ethics disclosures filed when he was governor.

While he spoke at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, Chafee only became a Democrat in 2013. In his memoir, he derides a “parade of Democratic Bush enablers” who traveled to Rhode Island to campaign for Whitehouse in 2006, including senators such as Clinton, Harry Reid of Nevada and Chuck Schumer of New York.

Reading list

In 2008, Chafee wrote “Against the Tide,” a memoir that was critical of the Bush administration and congressional Republicans.

He revels in his outsider status, writing about his disillusionment with partisanship in the Senate.

Banquet to honor scholars, raise money for future

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor There are around 20 different scholarships for students to apply for through the Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell Foundation.

The foundation, which will host a banquet April 21 at the convention center, has been around since 1969, said Donna Oracion, college development director.

The foundation first started as a scholarship foundation, to go along with the Oilfield Training Center foundation. In 1999 the two foundations were merged to create the ENMU-R Foundation.

Each year the foundation hosts a banquet to thank donors and remind people there is an extra avenue for students to get scholarships, Oracion said.

“We started it to mainly just draw awareness to the fact that there is a foundation for the college and then

also to recognize people in the community, and now businesses, that have supported the foundation,” she said.

On April 21, two awards will be given to a local family and a local business.

The Diamond Service Award will go to Pioneer Bank this year, Oracion said, because the bank helps the foundation with a lot of the accounting services at no cost for the foundation.

“They keep all of our records, they help us as far as issuing checks and holding the funds and working with our investors to make sure the foundation fund is kept strong,” she said.

Steve Smith, of Roswell, and his family will receive the President’s Distinguished Service Award.

“We wanted to recognize Steve Smith and his family because of the generous gift they made to our foundation,” Oracion said.

The generous gift, she said, is in the form of scholarships in the family name in the upcoming semesters.

The Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell Foundation banquet is in its 14th year.

Each year the foundation thanks donors for helping the foundation succeed and recognizes the scholarship winners. This year, Jessica Burson, Miss New Mexico, will speak at the banquet. Burson is one of the university’s presidential scholars. Pioneer Bank and Steve Smith and his family, of Roswell, will receive awards.

Event to give away Cultural event to come to Pearson clocks, help kids

By Christina Stock Vision Editor

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor

Make Time for Kids, the event of the spring, will take place at the end of the month.

The event, hosted by CASA, will be April 24 at 5 p.m. at the Liberty, 312 N. Virginia Ave. The event started 13 years ago by local orthodontist Mike Taylor. “(He’s) crazy, fun and inventive,” said Carrie-Leigh Cloutier, executive director of CASA, Court Appointed Special Advocates.

With Taylor’s help and the help from Bank of the Southwest and Bullock’s Jewelry and other sponsors, Make Time for Kids has turned into the event it is today, she said.

“We have grown this into a huge event where hundreds of people come,” Cloutier said.

The community is encouraged to create clocks for the silent auction, she said. If people do not have the materials to make a clock, they can get the materials from Taylor’s office, 200 Wilshire Blvd. or at the CASA office, 500 N. Main St. suite 314.

The event will be comprised of a silent auction and a live auction. The silent auction is currently taking place online at maketimeforkids.com.

“You can see pictures

of clocks that have been made,” Cloutier said.

Bidding will stay open until April 23.

There will be free food and drink at the event, Cloutier said, and the public is encouraged to come.

“Come to get to know us,” she said.

April is Child Abuse Awareness Month and Volunteer Appreciation Month, which is why CASA hosts multiple events during the month.

Along with Make Time for Kids, there will be a child abuse rally April 15 at noon on the courthouse lawn, she said. There will also be some events to thank volunteers, Cloutier said.

“Child abuse is real,” she said. “Every day we see the most horrific, heartbreaking (cases).”

Cloutier invites the public to come to all events this month so it can get to know the CASA family.

“Come to see if you want to be part of our family,” she said.

A free community presentation of dance and song of the Polynesian Islands will take place on Saturday, April 25, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Pearson Auditorium on the New Mexican Military Institute campus.

The annual Spring Ho’ike hula event of the Sweet Leilani’s Kipuka Hula (hula doorway) has grown so much, with approximately 500 guests last year, that they were looking for a new and bigger location.

The administration of the New Mexico Military Institute stepped up in support of the community and The Sweet Leilani’s to have the venue this year at the Pearson Auditorium on the NMMI grounds.

The location has a viewing capacity of over 800 to 1,000 guests. The venue is also convenient for the 35 New Mexico Military Institute students from the Polynesian Islands who are looking forward to sharing their culture with Roswell’s citizens and their fellow students with dance and song. This event is going to be a gift to the community without any admission charges.

The event title was changed to “A Polynesian Evening,” as the NMMI students have such a large Samoan, Tonga-Mao, Tahitian, Fijan and Hawaiian presence in addition to Micronesia, New Guinea and other areas. The group

S.O.Y. Mariachi aims to help children learn music

By Christina Stock Vision Editor

The Save Our Youth organization, abbreviated to S.O.Y., which means “I am” in Spanish, is a scholarship-based music program that encourages children from the age 5 to 18 to learn to play an instrument and to sing the traditional tunes of Mariachi.

Mariachi’s history and origin is entwined in legend, from university students in Cortez times performing at marriages to earn money for their study in Madrid, to the platform on which the Mexican performers would sing and play the songs of courtship at a time, when men and women were strictly kept apart. Although the roots of Mariachi go back more than 100 years, its popularity began in the 1930s starting in Jalisco, Mexico, with more modern tunes that we know today as mariachi and who belong to the New Mexican heritage just as much as roasted green chile.

Founder of Roswell’s S.O.Y. Mariachi R.G. “Bobby” Villegas is proud of his seven teachers. Some

Their Mariachi program is meant to help today’s youth and to encourage the six pillars of Character Counts adopted in Roswell’s school system. S.O.Y. Mariachi is not a school sponsored program, but they do follow the basic rules and guidelines with a zero tolerance policy for discipline in order to support the youth in a professional and caring way.

The free classes that are taught cover traditional Mariachi instruments, including violins, trumpets, guitars, vihuela and guitarron. If the child can’t afford an instrument, one will be provided. Each child receives also voice training. All teachers give their services completely free, not only for the students but also for their parents, if they want to join their kids. Anybody who is interested, does not need any prior knowledge, there are beginner classes in how to read notes, to how to properly hold the instrument, to tune it and how to identify, if a note is off.

Villegas said, that the children get their first experience by performing at local events and restaurants. For example Los Cerritos, who have been very supportive of the program. There is a local fee when the group performs for weddings, quinceaneras and other occasions. The monies donated for their performance is then divided by the students and that money goes to their scholarship fund. When students learn 20-25 songs, they become members of the performing

group and are eligible for the scholarship program.

The children come from all kinds of different backgrounds, which actually belongs to the S.O.Y. Mariachi mission statement. Their goal is to establish within the community, without regard to ethnicity or gender, a positive cultural arts program and multicultural youth role models, who can demonstrate unity, discipline, commitment, inter-age cooperation and the desire to learn.

S.O.Y. Mariachi is encouraging visitors to come by on their practice days Tuesdays and Thursdays between 5:30 and 7 p.m. Visitors can walk from one room where a kid is taught how to identify higher and lower notes and to sit and listen to the advanced class. There are always parents, siblings and other guests enjoying the classes and rehearsals.

S.O.Y. Mariachi is located at 1120 S. Grand Ave. For more information call 6252886.

wide with the American troops and tourists staying in Hawaii. Another hula the Sweet Leilani’s will dance is “Holoholo Ka’a.” It was written when cars were in their early days and roads weren’t paved. It is the story of two young people going up the mountain for a joy ride and the speedometer is rising fast.

As the couple looks out the window over the cliffs, the wind blows and the dust billows. In the meantime they go up, down and around curves. The bottom line is that the young girl’s father does not like the young man and she is going to get into trouble with her father, if she doesn’t get home soon.

The first broad exposure to Hawaiian music was at the Panama-Pacific International Exhibition in San Francisco in 1915. Popular singers like Bing Crosby, Jimmie Rodgers and the Andrew Sisters included the Hawaiian tunes and instruments in the 1940s to their repertoire.

Roswell’s Sweet Leilani’s Kipuka Hula has been performing in Roswell for more than 15 years, participating at civic performances,

at the state tourism conference, UFO Festival, Habitat for Humanity, Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast and much more. They are a community-center based dance group that studies, shares and strives to perpetuate the love and appreciation of the Hawaiian and other Polynesian cultures along with the values of the Aloha spirit. Aloha has many meanings on many different levels. The Sweet Leilani’s show this diversity in their program for the Polynesian evening in Roswell’s Pearson Auditorium.

The audience can expect a high-energy, feel-good program, with a sentimental journey through well known hulas and modern, new influences by the NMMI cadets.

A big turn out is expected. To ensure having a seat, the public is asked to come early. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m.

The foundation, Oracion said, helps the college receive extra money from private support.

“The foundation gives an extra avenue to support the college,” she said.

Reservations for the banquet must be made to Craig Collins, foundation coordinator, by emailing him at craig.collins@roswell.enmu. edu. Reservations must be made by April 17.

At the banquet, there will be speakers, including Miss New Mexico.

Jessica Burson is a recipient of the presidential scholarship and will be graduating in May, Oracion said.

“We wanted her to speak at our banquet because she’s a good role model,” Oracion said. “She’s a real-

ly great success story for us.”

The presidential scholarship is a full-funding scholarship and allows students to get their associate degrees.

“That is kind of our most prestigious scholarship because it’s for the top 10 percent of our graduating seniors in both Chaves County and in Artesia,” she said.

In addition to tuition being paid, Oracion said presidential scholars also are placed in Phi Theta Kappa and receive a meal card to be used at the university cafeteria.

“We wanted to attract (more people),” she said.

“People think of the college as kind of a second choice.”

The scholarship was created to attract the top tier

students to ENMU-R, Oracion said.

“We wanted to make sure there was a way we could attract and reward the top performing students in our area,” she said. “This was a way for us to also say, ‘If you want to come here you can receive a really good scholarship.’”

More than 100 students have become presidential scholars since the scholarship started in 2009.

Oracion said the number of presidential scholars varies year to year, but there is more than one student who receives the scholarship.

“We want to make sure we have the same rigor as other schools,” she said.

C4 Sunday, April 12, 2015 Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: I'm 38, married for 16 years and the mother of two small children. I was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer and had a hysterectomy to remove it.

My husband has cheated more than once in the past, and since my recovery I have realized I never forgave him for it. I kept quiet and pretended I didn't know. Now I am bitter, angry and hurt. He goes

Comics out and stays out constantly. He does help with the kids, but I know I don't belong here. I know what I want, and it's not this life with him anymore.

I know I can leave at any time, but I feel my children deserve to be raised with both parents in the home since neither of us had that when we were growing up.

(My father died. His parents divorced when he was a toddler.) His family has been my family since the beginning of our relationship.

I want my children to grow up thinking marriage is forever and growing old with your partner is great.

I want them to have what I did not. If we are civilized and "pretend to be in love," would my children be OK? I'm willing to stay in this

marriage until they are old enough and on their own before I walk away.

Will they understand that I sacrificed my happiness for them to live with both parents? I want to be in love and happy, but would rather raise my babies with their father than someone else. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

WILLING IN CALIFORNIA DEAR WILLING: OK. First, let's talk about your diagnosis and the treatment you had.

Being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness can cause anyone to rethink how one has been living one's life. It can cause all sorts of repressed emotions to boil to the surface, caus-

ing anger, bitterness and hurt. Before making any life-changing decisions, please talk with your doctor, a marriage counselor and your husband about those feelings.

If you think that staying in an unhappy marriage with a man who goes out and stays out constantly while pretending to be in love would be healthy for your children, I'd be less than honest if I didn't warn you that you would be doing them a disservice.

Even if you could pull it off and the kids didn't sense the tension between you and your husband, how do you think they'll feel when they are older and realize what they were led to believe was a happy marriage was a lie?

Hints

from Heloise

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: Here is this week's SOUND OFF, about medication packaging: "Do you know why pharmaceuticals package tablets in cards with individual plastic pods for each tablet?

It can't be a simpler task than just throwing them all in one container, as before.

Many consumers, especially those with arthritic hands, may find it very bothersome to have to push the pills out one by one."

George C., via email George, you are right on target! This seems to be a problem for a lot of my readers and a continuing complaint.

I am not sure why pharmaceutical companies do this, but here is a guess: This packaging may be cheaper, but I doubt it.

Probably most important is that this packaging is harder for children to get into.

Yes, and harder for adults, too. Depending on the drug and the manufacturer, the pharmacy may be able to tell you if it does come in a bottle rather than the blister packs -- which, by the way, give me a blister when trying to pry out one or two pills.

Heloise Dear Readers: Other uses for socks with no match: • Use to dust blinds and furniture.

• Fill with rice or beans and make into a warming pad.

•As a tug toy for dogs.

• Use as garden gloves in a pinch.

• Cut the toe off and pull over a bandage as protection.

Heloise Dear Readers: Many of you responded to a recent Sound Off about people bending the corners of library-book pages. You agreed that it is disrespectful to turn down the corners, and gave your suggestions on what to use as bookmarks. Here are just a few: • Jon P. wrote, via email: "I always use the receipt the library gives me when I check out the book. Not only does it make a great bookmark, I am reminded when the book is due."

• Chuck in Santa Ana, Calif., wrote: "The 'bookmark' I use primarily is a small sticky note. It sticks to the page, with no damage to the paper."

PBS to air newly restored 911 call reveals ordeal of version of ‘The Civil War’ Bullock’s home break-in LOS ANGELES (AP) — PBS says it will air a newly restored version of Ken Burns’ “The Civil War” this fall, 25 years after the documentary’s debut.

The high-definition “Civil War” will air on five consecutive nights in September, PBS said Thursday.

Viewers will be able to see more details in the film’s images, according to Daniel J. White, who handled the restoration. In a statement, filmmaker Burns called the new version “truly remarkable.”

“The Civil War” proved a blockbuster when it debuted in September 1990, drawing an audience of nearly 39 million. It remains the highest-rated PBS series broadcast to date, according to the TV network.

The announcement of the film’s rebroadcast coincides with the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s April 14, 1865, assassination, and the end of the Civil War. AP Photo

by Mathew Brady on the back porch of his Richmond home, one week after surrendering his army, included in the film, “The Civil War.”

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Sandra Bullock awoke early the morning of June 8 to find an intruder in her home.

She didn’t know it at the time, but the man had lurked outside her gates for several days, writing in a spiral notebook about his obsession with the Oscar-winning actress. He had jumped her fence and rang her doorbell for 10 to 15 minutes before entering her home through a sunroom door.

Bullock got a glimpse of him as he walked past her bedroom and toward her attic, giving the actress an opportunity to seal herself behind a security door, hide in a closet, and call police.

Details of the 50-yearold actress’ ordeal were revealed during a hearing Thursday for Corbett that ended with a judge determining he should stand trial on stalking, burglary and other felony charges.

Corbett’s attorneys deny their client wanted to hurt Bullock and say they are hoping to resolve the case and get their client mental health treatment.

The items presented in court during a hearing this week and released on Friday include a two-page letter Corbett wrote to the

Oscar-winning actress the day before he entered her home.

Hiding, panicked, yet polite

Once Bullock locked the door to her bedroom and got into the closet, she dialed 911. Over the next 15 minutes, she guided police through the gates of her home and led them to her location, opening the door only after confirming with a police dispatcher that officers had secured the home.

Bullock’s fear is evident on the call — she was breathing heavily and sounded near tears at points. Although she saw only one man, Bullock heard what she thought were two voices. About three-and-a-half minutes after calling police, Bullock heard a new noise.

“I hear them,” Bullock said. “I hear someone banging on my door.”

Police were already on their way, and a dispatcher assured the actress they were coming with lights flashing and sirens blaring.

“Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you,” the actress responded.

“You’re doing good,” the dispatcher told Bullock about six minutes into the

call.

“Thank you,” Bullock said, letting out a nervous laugh.

The actress thanked the dispatcher 10 times during the call.

‘Love, your husband’

When he was arrested, police found Corbett with a two-page letter professing his love for Bullock that was apparently written the day before, about 20 hours before his arrest.

The letter makes clear Corbett has been watching Bullock, commenting on her comings-and-goings.

“You could have had me today however you chose other people over me,” the letter opens. “I’ll be around as you know.”

After his arrest, police reviewed Bullock’s surveillance footage and saw Corbett outside the actress’ gate on each of the three days before he hopped the fence.

The letter was signed, “Always and forever, Love, your husband.”

Police also found a spiral bound notebook with 25 pages of writings commenting on Bullock, her life and Corbett’s perceived relationship with her.
