Kintigh talks flooding, jobs, development

Q: Reports over the radio say the flooding issue has been resolved at the veteran’s cemetery. Is that true?

A: I think that’s a little overly optimistic. We have the drainage system in place, if you’d had a chance to go out and look at it where the “Dennis’ ditch” was. That’s all been finished off and now there’s an actual drain pipe that runs down to the detention pond.

The fundamental greater difficulty is it’s flat. There’s no slope to that, and unfortunately if we get another heavy rain there’s going to be ponding. This is not unique to the veteran’s cemetery unfortunately there’s many areas around this town.

We’ve experienced this more, I’d say, in the last 18 months,

Mayor Dennis Kintigh visited the RDR offices to have a Q&A session with reporters. Here’s a part of the interaction. two years-something like that.

We’ve had a lot of heavy rains in that time frame and so it’s come to light this lack of slope and drainage in certain parts of this community. So, yes, we’ve got it better from where that paved culdesac is, but I’m still concerned about the lack of slope.

Q: Back when (veteran’s cemetery board president) Mr. Eldridge had resigned, I know there was proposed pricing and regulations requiring burial vaults. Was that ever passed by the cemetery board? What’s the status on that?

A: No, I don’t think so. I’d

have to double check that. It’s interesting because that whole issue has come to the surface again. The whole idea of the burial vaults is basically like a, in this concept, would be a vinyl, plastic-type-almost like a cover that would go over the top of the casket. You could have concrete ones or more exotic ones that are a lot more expensive, but the idea was you could do this and it would prevent settling and it would protect (and) keep the casket intact. These on the veteran’s area are going to be double-stacked cemetery plots.

Because the concept is, two

caskets go in there. If the veteran dies first, the veteran goes in first, they are dug a little deeper, and then the spouse.

So there’s advantages to that, but there’s extra cost. There’s a lot of push back over that.

Candidly, we didn’t get that result. We got...staff changes came into place, some transitions. And we’re going to have to re-visit that.

Q: It’s my understanding, with these pay raises, there’s people who have been with the city for decades (who received) 17, 25 cent raises. Can you elaborate and explain why some who are veterans of the city got such small raises while See MAYOR, Page A2

with Gray.

State’s Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby announced the charges Friday amid the backdrop of a city in turmoil — four days after public anger over Gray’s death triggered riots, with heavily armed troops enforcing a nightly curfew, and the day before scheduled protest marches expected to draw thousands.

Within hours, the city’s police union questioned the prosecutor’s impartiality, accusing her of a rush to judgment and demanding she recuse herself from the case.

Even some of those who support Mosby’s stand worry further violence might erupt if she fails to win convictions.

Ex-Marine Bloodhart proud to volunteer

By Jeff Jackson Record Sports Writer

BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore’s top prosecutor acted swiftly, charging six officers in the death of Freddie Gray, who suffered a grave spinal injury as he was arrested and put into a police transport van, handcuffed and without a seat belt.

But getting a jury to convict police officers of murder and manslaughter will be far harder than obtaining arrest warrants.

Legal experts say the case is fraught with challenges.

The widely shown video that captured the nation’s attention shows Gray, 25, being loaded into a police transport van, but not what happened once he was inside. Other than the accused officers, the only known witness is a convicted criminal later placed in the van’s other holding cell, unable to see what was happening

Now in his seventh decade, Jim Bloodhart won’t stop working.

He volunteers much of his labor in local causes to build homes, deliver toys during the holidays and, during the last four years, bring together a cemetery for veterans. Through various pro bono projects and his work as an electrical contractor, Bloodhart, at 71, grinds through 65-hour weeks.

“I have worked hard all of my life and I have worked two jobs at one time at different times,” Bloodhart said, “and when I got involved with the charities then I decided it was time to give back. Life had been pretty good to me over the years. I made a pretty good living, not an exceptional one, so

this is my way, maybe trying to make sure I get into heaven.”

Bloodhart joined the Marines after graduating high school in 1961 in Shelby, Ohio.

While not being sent to Vietnam during four years of active duty, he was stationed in Yorktown, Virginia, at a naval weapons facility during a tense 13 days in late 1962. The entire world was nervous about the Cuban Missile Crisis.

“That particular duty station, we supplied all the munitions out of that base to Norfolk, the Navy. We did railroad convoys, truck convoys, barg-

es to supply munitions to all the ships in the Norfolk fleet,” Bloodhart said. “That base was real high security because we even had nuclear materials there. My job at the time was security for the base and that was before I went to electronic school.”

He recalls standing guard as well.

“We had what was called a port-starboard watch. They put everybody on the same watch.

So you actually had two people on every patrol route and every duty station 24/7. You were on four hours and off eight hours for that time period and it got very long and very tiring.

It was traumatic for the whole country, but it was one of those things you did what you had to See SPOTLIGHT, Page A2

(new employees got such big raises?)

A: I think there were some unreasonable expectations.

This was a salary survey, that actually began oh, I’d say about two years ago. What the purpose was is to survery the communities around Roswell, similar size communities-what do they pay in the different positions. What the city manager strove to do is to look at all those positions and adjust our pay so that the folks would fall in the same pay grade. We wanted to be around 55 percent of the average. In other words, just above fifty percent.

So this was an adjustment to bring our compensation into align with cities of similar size.

What we found is that some people had been underpaid, seriously, for many years. By that, I mean those are positions where the compensation was very poor compared to similar or identical positions in other communities. So this was about bringing all of our positions in line with the other communities in our area.

And you’re right, some people were surprised they didn’t get a huge raise. The good news is, for those guys, is they’ve not been underpaid for a long time. There are some people, even if they’ve only been here a couple three or four years, in that time they were taking it in the shorts. Now that we’ve got everything in line properly, we can continue to move forward and continue to compensate.

One of the aspects of this effort, this re-alignment that is under appreciated is Mr. Polasek was able to cover all of this without coming back to the (city) council and asking for a budget adjustment. This was through elimination of some positions, consolidation of some stuffwe were able to cover almost $900,000 to be able to cover all of these adjustments.

Q: The city manager said you were thinking about opening up the industrial park for the artists.

A: What we’re doing is we are working on this whole effort to create an arts and culture region in the downtown effort as part of a re-development effort. Actually, I’ve come up with what I consider a reasonably catchy name for. It centers around the Virginia and Third area, so I’m calling it the “V3 Project.” What we really want to do is encourage private developers, and it’s happening, to re-purpose older structures, renovate and re-purpose

General those structures for the establishment of a more colleptic, cultural areas. Where there’s dining, where there’s entertainment, where there’s art. One of the key parts of this, and we’ve talked about this for a while, is the interactive children’s museum in the old warehouse.

That project continues to move forward. In fact, I’ve got some staff meetings this (Thursday) afternoon to talk about some of the issues they’ve got. I think one of the more visible (efforts) right now is the effort at Roswell Motor Supply-the old Sinclair gas station which is right there on Second (and Virginia).

There’s also some other stuff being discussed about some of the other properties on Virginia.

The beauty of this is that this is being done by private individuals and private groups. My role in much of this is simply as a cheerleader, an encourager, a facilitator, and say, ‘Hey, by the way have you met this person? She’s got this great idea, love to introduce you.’ That’s what I do. The idea is that these folks, these creative folks will create this environment.

Why? You might ask. People might scratch their heads, how does this help Roswell? Over and over again, I talk to major employers here who have more jobs than we got people. High tech jobs. High tech jobs? Yes. People working on aircraft, airliner maintenance, Leprino, oil and gas. All those areas require skills and expertise that are in demand. How do you attract young professionals to come to Roswell? They are going to want what the couple you are describing want. They’re going to want something a little more edgy, a little more collective. I want to create that environment. I shouldn’t say I want to create it, I want to encourage others to create it. And so that helps, then, whether you’re recruiting a physician or you’re recruiting a senior engineer for Leprino. They come here, they see a place they can hang out in ... music, dining, evening, walkable ... that whole concept is what we want to strive to create in a uniquely Roswell area.

Q: When you say the city is going to encourage it, do you mean there will be taxes that are lower or is it going to be only for the private industry?

A: Fair question. One of the things we are striving to do, and as you know, we’ve waived dumping fees. If you’re going to tear down or renovate, there’s a lot of expenses there just dumping stuff. There’s a couple other concepts we’re kicking around with staff about-I’ve talked to the city manager about this whole idea of asbestos abatement

and removal, is there a way we can incentivise that. Because you want to encourage asbestos abatement and removal, because it’s good for the good health of the people and you have to do that if you’re going to reuse older buildings. Otherwise you just leave them sit there, which we don’t want. So there’s that. Part of this master planning we’re doing. We are having some people come in and do a master plan for the City of Roswell. It’s a new master plan, the one we have is, I think from 2007-don’t hold me to that. It’s out of date.

Creating metropolitan re-development areas. What do you do there? There’s some things you can do tax-wise, you can do things like new standards.

We have parking lots. There’s a big city parking lot next to the Liberty. You see these big signs.

Leased parking, numbered parking. We don’t hardly lease any of those spots now. Lets get rid of that, take those signs down, re-surface that-maybe just seal it, clean it up. I would like to see, and I’m not sure it can be done-you know, staff will decide. Cut some holes in that pavement and plant some trees. Do some landscaping.

And then big signs: free parking. That’s one of the big challenges with downtown activities is, where do you park your car?

Q: It’s hard to know where to park a lot of times, because you’re thinking, ‘This is a library lot, if I’m not a patron in the library, am I going to get ticketed?’

A: Yeah. See, that’s why I want to get rid of this specialty, this whole dynamic. Let’s make this friendlier, more open. Yes, you’re right. Here’s a sign. Bam, free parking. So those are the things along those lines. Might not seem like a lot, and maybe the city can do more as we move along. We’ve got to do this in small bites, but we’ve got to take a bite every day. Momentum is huge to me.

We’re seeing some things happening down there and I want to keep seeing things happening. I want the population to see things happening. Because that will affect how they feel about their community. I’m not going to kid you: When that structure at the railroad tracks and Second Street gets ready to be torn down-the one that looks like something from Dusseldorf 1947-when that gets ready to come down, I’m going to want to make a big deal about that. I’m going to invite all you guys, I’m going to invite everybody there. I’m going to see if they’ll let me, you know, throw the first sledge hammer or whatever I don’t know. That has looked terrible for years

and it just zaps the enthusiasm and energy from the community.

Q: In reference to those leased parking signs ... as it stands right now, anyone can park there, there’s really not towing enforced, is that correct?

A: I know of nobody getting towed, of nobody getting ticketed. I don’t think there’s more than-I’ve seen them. It’s been a while since I saw the actual map with which slots were leased. They’re not all together in one spot. My original request to staff was, ‘Can we just consolidate them all in one part and leave the rest of it?’ I was told by one of the folks in planning and zoning at the time was, we’ve got like six slots. For what we we’re getting in money for them-lets just get rid of the leased slots. This is something we are working our way through.

Q: The city just hired a marketing/public relations director. She’s from Keller, Texas, her fiance/boyfriend is from Keller, the city manager (is also from Keller)... I’ve gotten some comments on Facebook that it seems like the cards are stacked in someone’s favor.

A: Okay. Let’s talk about that because I think I understand where it’s coming from. I think the analogy in my mind is the best: We’ve hired a new head coach, like a division one head coach. And he is building his team of coaches. His coaching team. The analogy is not far off, because I’ve seen how Steve Polasek works. He’s very much in a coaching mentality, as opposed to just a manager mentality. So who’s he going to want to recruit? He has to encourage people to come here.

Every one of those people took a pay cut to come to Roswell. I think that needs to be understood. They were making more money in Keller. They had an easier time in Keller. Keller is a very afluent, land locked community, major metropolitan area. They had lots of things going for them. None of these people are content with sitting on their hands. When I spoke with Mr. Polasek during the interview process, we had five people come here for two days and began the process with an 8:00 meeting with them on day one and finished with a 5:00 meeting on day two. I was brutaly honest-we’ve got these problems, we’ve got these issues. They went out and they saw. The objective was I didn’t want anyone to come here and then four months later go, “Oh this isn’t what I thought it was going to be,” and See MAYOR, Page A3

Missing toddler found

Staff Report

Roswell Police are breathing a sigh of relief after a missing toddler was found safe following an Amber Alert that was cancelled when a good samaritan came forward and provided information to the boy’s whereabouts Saturday evening.

According to police, the call came in around 4 p.m. for a missing 1-year-old child identified as Lucas, who was last seen with his mother on the 800 block of West College Boulevard wearing only a diaper.

Loraine Olivas, the boy’s mother, was located outside Carlsbad, police said.

The exact time Lucas was found is not clear, but police credited the Amber Alert and the samaritan for the child’s safe return.

do. (I) Lived through it.”

After the Marines, Bloodhart enrolled at Ohio State University to study electronics. He was about 100 miles from the shootings at Kent State on May 4, 1970. “The liberals shamed us or tried to shame us. A lot of my professors, when I was writing the facts of life and stories for different classes, they would look at me and I still wore my hair high and tight. I was proud of the fact that I had served. Of course I was young and arrogant, too. Even though I hadn’t gone to Vietnam I was still a baby killer. People just kind of looked down on you. If we were lucky we were ignored because of the attitude at the time. That still sticks with me.

I didn’t feel that I deserved anything worse than anybody else, or any better. But some of these kids went on to college and right into the master’s program just to avoid the draft.

Now they’re in control of the colleges. That really bugs me.”

Bloodhart and his wife, Karen, moved from Northern California to Roswell, her hometown, in 2004 and Bloodhart was soon active with Habitat for Humanity and the Marine Corps League, which runs the Toys for Tots program.

“I’m very happy that we do the electrical work for Habitat.

We contract out certain por-

“An alert citizen was able to provide information that led us to the boy,” Roswell Police Public Information Officer Todd Wildermuth said.

Due to the nature of the ongoing investigation, detectives didn’t release where Lucas was found, nor did they have the samaritan’s name at press time Saturday.

When the initial Amber Alert was issued, police said Lucas could have been seriously injured. Charges are pending in this case, police said.

RDR’s Jared Tucker will be following this story throughout Friday night, and will be posting updates to rdrnews.com and the RDR Facebook page as they are available.

tions, like digging the footers, pouring the slab, and then we’ll build the house on top of it, do the plumbing. Habitat for Humanity buys the materials and my company goes in free of charge and wires the house to code,” he said.

The houses are built and sold on an application basis and go to people who fall between set income levels. But they have to work, too.

“They have to donate, based on as a couple or a single parent, hours to the construction project whether it’s sweeping floors, pulling weeds, you name it,” Bloodhart said. “We’ve had families whose relatives have donated their time. Then we, as Habitat of Roswell, sell them the house, interest-free, for 15 to 20 years at what it cost us to build it. We don’t give it to them; they have to buy it. And there are people that donate money to reduce that cost.”

The Marines Corps League is a group of ex-Marines who undertake causes as well, including the Toys for Tots around the holidays.

“We got involved with Toys for Tots because nobody would take it over. So as the League we would do Toys for Tots. And that’s our big thing for the year.

Last year it was 760-some kids that we took care of here in Chaves County. I’m very proud of the fact that we hit over 94 percent, or 94 cents on the dollar went straight to the kids,” See SPOTLIGHT, Page A3

leave. To his tremendous credit, Steve Polasek came here and he’s excited. If you’ve dealt with the guy at all, you know he’s a ball of fire. A little joke I have is that Steve Polasek makes me look lathargic. Which is a frightening concept to many people in this town. He is, he has reached out and said, I want you to come here to the people he’s known. You’ve got Johnathan, who I’m extremely impressed with, and who is in many ways the flip side of Steve. Very quiet, very much an individual who exemplifies ‘Still waters run deep.’ I’ve only met Deanna once. We recognized there would be some eyebrows raised, which is why you look at that selection process, the people who did the selection were either going to be her contemporaries, the ones who will be working with her directly at the city or people who would be involved with her outside the city-economic development president and the chamber. The comments I’ve heard over and over are, ‘She blew our socks away.’ Steve, I believe that would be the case, as he said to me over and over again, ‘She’s going to have to apply. If we find somebody better, we’ll hire that person. As it is, we got a ‘two for.’ The position is going to be more complex than what we had before.

We, myself especially, had frustration about, how do we do this? We’ve got a chamber, two chambers, we’ve got an economic development corporation. What do we do this, at the time, marketing person? Well, Steve brought in some serious expertise in this area. What we’ve done is created a position that is actually much more than it was before. Yes, there will be the public relations aspect of it. The public information officer, Todd will come over from the police department to city hall and report to this person. So this person will have supervisory roles. But in

addition to that, this person will liaison with economic development, the chambers, be over the visitors bureau, the convention center, work with me and other councilors interact with the legislature, and help us present this whole community in a more effective way.

I’m frustrated with the term, ‘director of public relations.’

Because I dont’ believe it carries enough weight to it. Steve and I have gone back and forth. I don’t have a good name for this position, but I think it’s much more than that. Let me share with you-I don’t mean to sound frustrated and I’m not trying to throw rocks at anybody, but look at this weekend. Look at what we have going on. We’ve got the Balloon Fiesta the same weekend as Party on the River, same weekend as the Mud Run. Why is it all happening at one time? Couldn’t we have spread this out? A year ago we had the institute (NMMI) graduation the same weekend as Hike it and Spike it. Oh my golly!

RDR: Nobody could get a hotel room.

DK: Yeah, nobody could get, yeah...so, is this a role for this person to help coordinate?

Now, understanding they don’t get to dictate. They don’t get to say, ‘OK, you guys have to change your date.’ What it has to be is, ‘By the way, do you know this is going on that weekend?’ How do we also work with marketing-and marketing is a weak term-how do we present this whole community for business development purposes? I mean, granted we have a symphony. There is an element of greatness about music. This is complex, great music that survived for centuries. This pianist they had performed with the symphony-my wife and I got tickets and were watching from the balcony and this young woman was incredible ... Roswell, New Mexico has a symphony? Really? Yes.

itus at Harvard Law School, suggested that Mosley’s actions were motivated more by political expediency and short-term public safety than strong evidence. He called the charges “outrageous and irresponsible,” especially the second degree murder count filed against the van’s driver under a legal principle known as “depraved heart.”

“The decision to file charges was made not based on considerations of justice, but on considerations of crowd control,” Dershowitz said Saturday.

To win a conviction, city prosecutors will have to convince a jury that transport van driver Caesar Goodson acted so recklessly that he knew his actions could take Gray’s life.

Suspects sought in battery incident Submitted by RPD The public’s help is being sought in providing any information that could help investigators identify and locate three suspects who beat up a man so severely this week he had to be transferred from a local hospital to a hospital out of town for further treatment.

The 21-year-old victim was walking Wednesday at about 7:30 p.m. near the intersection of G Street and East Wells Street in in the south Roswell area known as “the base” when he was attacked by three people who pulled up in a car, got out of the vehicle and beat him.

Witnesses identified the attackers as two females and one male. The witnesses did not see any weapons used during the attack. The witnesses also said

there may have been a small child in the car.

The car is described as a dark-colored 1980s model fourdoor Chevrolet Caprice. Witnesses were able to give only limited descriptions of the suspects, each of whom is believed to be Hispanic. The car’s female driver was wearing her brown hair in a bun style. The female front-seat passenger was heavyset and wearing a black-andwhite shirt. The male was riding in the back seat and wearing a tan shirt.

Anyone with information that could help identify the suspects or suspects’ vehicle in this aggravated-battery case is asked to call the Roswell Police Department at (575) 624-6770 or Chaves County Crime Stoppers at 1-888-594-TIPS(8477).

Opinion

Roswell Daily Record

‘NMMI vs. NMMI’ lawsuit huge waste of money

I have circumstantial evidence that there may be a blatant violation of the Sherman Act, the nation’s oldest antitrust law, going on right here in Roswell.

The law was passed in 1890 to restrict giant businesses known as “trusts” from controlling whole sections of the economy, like railroads, oil, steel and sugar.

But this time it’s not oil barons and steel moguls who are getting richer as the poor get poorer, it is attorneys who seem to be milking a lawsuit for every penny that it’s worth.

After a protracted two-year legal battle between the New Mexico Military Institute and its alumni association, the case is yet to be resolved, with both sides claiming they are the winner after a judge last month released her findings of fact and conclusions of law.

But here’s the caveat.

A resolution to this case would mean that lawyers on both sides would cease to collect legal fees.

God forbid if that should happen (and no personal offense to the local attorney whose column appears on the opposite page as mine).

Timothy Howsare Ripcord into Reality Already, the alumni association estimates it has spent between $750,000 and $800,000 on the case. NMMI officials are currently processing a public information request from the newspaper to let us know how much money — taxpayer money I should point out — they have spent to fight this case.

A quick word on public records: Public records belong to the people, not the government. The government entity — in this case NMMI — is merely the custodian, not the owner, of its records. Public records, such as police reports and court documents, must be made available to the public during normal business hours. It is appropriate for the government agency to charge a fee to cover the cost of reproducing these records, but it cannot be excessive.

Now I’ll get off my high horse and get back to the subject at hand. The investigative reporting staff at the Daily Record better get on this “attorney antitrust case” before someone tips off Larry Barker at News 13 in Albuquerque.

While the judge has rightly determined that the Institute Alumni Association, formerly the New Mexico Military Institute Alumni Foundation, is an agent of the military school, there is still ambiguity on whether the $5 million in assets held by association should be transferred to NMMI. In a released statement on April 22, NMMI officials said the judge ruled that the alumni association is “in fact an agent of NMMI, exists to support, promote and benefit NMMI, and that the funds in the association’s custody are for the exclusive benefit of NMMI.” Shortly after our first story was published on April 23, the lead attorney for the alumni association asserted that the judge denied the military school’s request to transfer about $5 million in assets from the alumni association to the

NMMI Foundation or other charitable organization for administration.

So who is right?

After a two-hour executive session Thursday, the NMMI Board of Regents came to no conclusions about the lawsuit.

One of the board members told the newspaper that the lawsuit has been a divisive issue in the NMMI community and that he would “never declare a victory or defeat.”

An official from the alumni association called the newspaper on the morning when our first story came out, claiming that we acted as a mouthpiece for NMMI by publishing verbatim their released statement.

However, to the credit of the NMMI attorneys and public relations office, they had rightly guessed that it wouldn’t take long for the media vultures to start circling once the judge’s findings were released to the public via email attachment.

NMMI had the wherewithal to have a released statement ready at the click of a send button while the alumni association failed to be prepared.

The Daily Record left phone

messages for both attorneys only three minutes apart. While the NMMI attorney returned our call, the association attorney failed to return a call before press time.

Two well-known expressions come to my mind: “The squeaky wheel gets the grease,” and “If you snooze, you loose.”

And then there was this curious comment made on our website, likely by someone affiliated with the association.

“You could not wait a couple of days on a lawsuit that has taken two years to get both sides of the story before running this article?”

Gosh. Since when did newspaper reporters and editors become obligated to work around the tee times and social calendars of attorneys and public officials?

Excuse me.

Getting back to the enormous amount of dinero this lawsuit is costing.

The estimated $750,000 to $800,000 spent by the alumni association alone could have funded a lot of scholarships to to NMMI. That’s first and foremost why the association exists.

Editorial

U.S. economy still limping along The nation’s real gross domestic product in the first quarter of this year grew by a disappointing 0.2 percent annual rate, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reported Wednesday.

Jason Furman, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, attributed the economy’s underwhelming performance to “notably harsh winter weather” during the first three months of 2015.

Of course, the nation has experienced harsh winter weather in years past — including, notably, 1987 and 1969, when the Northeast endured three separate snowstorms.

But unlike the first quarter of this year, when the U.S. economy barely grew, the economy in the first quarter of 1987 expanded by 2.8 percent and by a robust 6.4 percent in 1969.

Some have gone so far as to wonder whether the negligible uptick in GDP during the first three months of 2015 “suggests a longstanding problem of under-reporting Q1 expansion,” as CNBC reported.

Well, maybe BEA’s seasonal adjustment of quarterly GDP is off by a tenth of a percentage point or two. That doesn’t change the fact that the economic recovery that began in 2009 is the weakest during the post-World War II era.

Indeed, last June, the five-year anniversary of the current recovery, Pew Research Center compared it with the first five years of other long postwar expansions.

The U.S. economy grew by 35.4 percent during the 1960s “go-go” years; 27.7 percent during the 1980s Reagan recovery; 16.7 percent during the 1990s tech boom; 15.8 percent during the new-millennium 2000s; and 10.8 percent during the Obama recovery.

And that doesn’t tell the entire story.

Real per-capita growth in disposable income since the so-called Great Recession ended in 2009 is not even a third of what it was during the previous four economic expansions. And job creation during the Obama recovery is worse than during all but one postwar recovery.

That explains why, nearly six years into the current recovery, the majority of Americans still have a negative view of economic conditions, according to Gallup.

The hope here is that GDP will improve in the second quarter to the point that public perception of the economy brightens.

What creates jobs? Do you think you know?

I took a camera to Times Square this week and asked people, “What creates jobs?”

Most had no answer.

One said, “stimulus!” What?

Government creates jobs? No! I suppose it’s natural that people think government creates jobs because politicians always say that.

“We’ve now created more than 10 million,” said President Obama. But that just meant that he took office at the start of the recession, and finally job creation resumed.

He didn’t cause that. In fact, his taxes and complex regulation slowed job creation.

His 2012 presidential election rival, Mitt Romney, was a little more free-market-oriented, but he sounded like

John

Stossel Syndicated Columnist Obama when he talked about jobs. He had “a plan” to add 12 million. Don’t assume his plan was just to get government out of the way of the private sector — Romney said it’s a bad idea to cut government spending during a recession.

FDR’s New Deal was the dawn of belief that jobs flow from government. FDR didn’t seem to care whether jobs people did were productive

or sustainable. He just wanted something done about the “armies” of unemployed. If they weren’t given jobs, they might become a real army and revolt.

Now that government has lots of power, people look to it to create jobs. Communist countries had five-year plans.

They didn’t work.

That’s because jobs come from government getting out of the way and letting employers produce goods.

Every new layer of regulations sounds nice — protecting the environment, providing more health care, forbidding discrimination against disabled people — but most rules do more harm than good.

Humans have needs and

desires. Entrepreneurs see those needs as opportunity. They hire people not out of generosity or because government told them to — but because it’s profitable to employ people if they produce valuable goods.

If it’s not profitable, that means those people would be better employed doing something else. The prices customers are willing to pay and the wages workers accept are the best indication of which jobs can be done profitably and therefore ought to be done.

But politicians don’t trust business owners to make those decisions. Some also resent it if entrepreneurs sucSee STOSSEL, Page A6

Concerns about dementia may lead to switching drugs D E A R D O C T O R K : I’ve been taking over-the-counter antihistamines for years to control my allergies. Now I hear I may have to worry about dementia. How real is the concern?

DEAR READER: Antihistamine drugs have “anticholinergic” (an-tee-cole-in-ERjik) effects. That means that they have some tendency to block the action of a natural substance called acetylcholine. This substance transmits messages in the nervous system. In the brain, it is involved in learning and memory; in the rest of the body, it stimulates muscles to contract.

Drugs with anticholinergic effects include tricyclic antidepressants, antihista-

Ask Dr. K United Media Syndicate mines, some muscle relaxants, some intestinal relaxants, treatments for dizziness and drugs that treat overactive bladder. Between about 10 and 40 percent of older adults take drugs with anticholinergic effects. We’ve known for a long time that these drugs can cause temporary symptoms such as sleepiness, confusion, and problems with short-term

memory and reasoning.

Earlier this year, researchers published a study in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine which indicated that these drugs also may increase the risk of a longterm problem: dementia. The research team studied nearly 3,500 men and women ages 65 and older. They noted all the drugs, both prescription and over-the-counter (OTC), that each person took the 10 years before starting the study. Then the team tracked the participants’ health for an average of seven years.

During that time, 800 of the volunteers developed dementia. The researchers found that people who used drugs with prominent anticholinergic effects were

more likely to have developed dementia than those who didn’t use them, and also that the risk of dementia increased with the cumulative dose. The people who took the highest doses for the longest time had a 54 percent higher dementia risk than people who took the lowest doses for the shortest time.

Several prior studies have come to the same conclusion as this study. These prior studies had included only prescription drugs. This study is the first to include OTC drugs. In that way, it is more complete.

This study and the several before it that come to simiSee DR. K, Page A5

Advancing together through unity and love

The power of five individual fingers working independently is no match for a fist of five fingers working together in harmony. Unity of effort provides results. Unity increases results exponentially. In other words, one plus one plus one does not equal three, it equals nine or twelve or fifteen. Unity multiplies a team’s efforts.

Most organizations fall far short of their potential because of a lack of unity.

Efforts that could be used to advance an organization are instead used to “in fight” or to advance personal agendas that slow down or put a brake on the collective cause.

A visual that helps me explain the power of unity is rowers competing in boat racing, an event that has been a part of the Olympics since 1900.

Most all of us have seen the racing shell boats on television. The boats have rowers sitting single file from the front of the boat to the back.

The speed with which the boat moves through the water is directly tied to the unity of the team.

One rower who decides he wants to pull his oar out of the water will slow the boat down. His weight now becomes “dead weight” as he is failing to contribute

lar conclusions are disturbing. Drugs with anticholinergic properties are widely used; I regularly take a medicine (fortunately in low dose) that has anticholinergic effects.

I think this study was particularly well done.

The body produces less acetylcholine as we get older, and blocking its effects can deliver a double whammy to older people. So what does one do

to the team. One rower who decides to keep his oar in the water and row against the others will drastically slow down the movement of the boat and may even stop it.

How much faster can a boat glide through the water with unity in the team than without?

Brains or brawn doesn’t win the race. If you take the smartest or the strongest men in the country and line them up in a boat and say “Row!,” they will advance the boat, but it will take time to get them out of the blocks and even then they will not advance quickly. It is the unity of rowing together as a team stroke after stroke that brings success.

Leadership and unity are necessary to advance any organization or community. Effective leadership focuses the organization. A unified team advances the organization.

There are very few limits on what an organiza-

tion can accomplish if its members work together in unison.

America is a land of free thinkers. This is one of the great attributes of our country. First, we have the power to think whatever we want. Second, as long as it doesn’t cause harm to another, we can pretty much say or do whatever we want (there are exceptions to this concept). But to get results in a wartime battle, free thinking by the troops would bring disastrous results. In a military setting, the chain of command is clear and those down the chain must follow the instructions of those above them without any questions asked. Free thinking by the front line is handed over to the leadership for the good of the team.

A lack of unity in a military maneuver would bring disastrous results.

Trying to obtain unity in the typical organizations is often like trying to herd stray cats. Everyone has their own ideas about what needs to happen and with our right to freedom of speech, we are free to share with others what we feel and influence them for or against the leader or leadership.

Unity must be modeled by the leadership of any

organization. It begins at the top. If there is infighting in the leadership of an organization, unity is not possible. But unity can be prevented by action at any level.

The worst enemy of unity is individual egos.

As humans we often have a hard time submitting to leadership. Submission is often considered to be a sign of weakness.

Instead, submission of the individuals can allow an organization to reach new heights if the submission is to good leadership.

Checking egos at the door allow an organization to advance in unity.

Unity doesn’t necessarily arise from agreement.

It comes from commitment. The commitment to the cause is greater than the self interests of the individuals who make up the team. Unity doesn’t mean that when the leaders or the members meet, they agree on every (or even any) issue.

But unity means that after discussion is had and the decision is made, those involved who didn’t get their way agree their commitment to the organization outweighs their individual beliefs. Unity arises when the makeup of an organization is committed to the vision of the organi-

zation.

It is all right to have disagreements. Again, we are back to the “American way.” Organizations have boards or committees to tap the wisdom of a group. I firmly believe that the collective wisdom of a group will result in better decisions than one person running a dictatorship. Collective leadership also provides checks and balances on the ultimate leader.

So members of the leadership team need to speak up and speak out.

But after a healthy discussion and a collective decision, the participants must leave the room and be committed to the decision. If everyone can be less concerned with who gets the credit and more concerned about advancing the organization, success will follow.

The power of unity has been recognized countless times through the history of our country. Before we became a country, in 1768, John Dickerson said, “Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all! By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall.” Abraham Lincoln in a speech in Springfield, Illinois, on June 16, 1858, shared “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” Pearl

Harbor and 9/11 brought immediate unity as our country was attacked.

My challenge to you today is to accomplish unity in organizations that you are involved in.

Focus on the vision of the organization. Understand that there are many ways to accomplish the vision.

Understand that clinging to your road map will do more harm than implementing the collective path of the team.

Ask yourself if your motive is to do what’s best for the organization.

If so, speak your heart when given the opportunity. If the end result is a path other than the one you were advocating, it is alright. Provide unity by submitting to the plan of the organization’s leadership. Your support of the collective vision is more important to advance the organization than to let your ego cause disunity.

Just a thought.

when presented with evidence like this? I think we have to balance the benefits we know we are getting from the drug against the possible risks. We also have to ask ourselves if we have any options — other drugs that treat the same symptoms, but that do not have prominent anticholinergic effects.

If you regularly take an anticholinergic drug, talk to your doctor about alternatives. For example, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are a good alternative to tri-

cyclic drugs if you have depression. Newer antihistamines such as loratadine (Claritin) can replace first-generation antihistamines. And Botox injections and bladder training can help to improve incontinence.

resources to one of the nation’s finest military institutions. Instead, it’s all going down the drain to pay lawyers.

Recently on the pages of the Daily Record have been stories of horrendous crimes such as murder and manslaughter. In most cases, the perpetrators of these crimes have been men in their early 20s. It is no secret that Roswell has one of the highest crime rates per capita of any city in the nation.

In all quarters, from the Governor’s office to our own local law enforcement, we hear that one of the best ways to turn a young person’s life around is to provide educational opportunities.

NMMI, with its strict discipline and culture of respect, is a perfect place to make a difference in the lives of young people whose futures may be risk.

I’m not saying that if “Perpetrator Y” had attended NMMI then “Victim X” would still be alive.

What I am saying is this: Instead of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in a lawsuit that in the long run will only line the pockets of attorneys, NMMI and the alumni association need to quickly resolve this matter and get back to why they exist in the first place — to prepare and educate young people to become productive citizens and leaders.

According to NMMI’s website, yearly tuition and fees for a single student range from around $12,500 to $18,000, depending on whether the student is in-state, out-ofstate or international.

If you divide 750,000 by 12,500, you get 60, and if you divide 750,000 by 18, you get 42. For the sake of discussion, let’s say NMMI spent as much on attorneys’ fees as did the association. That would come to a whopping $1.5 million or even more. That huge chunk of money could send a lot of young people whose families lack

Are you prepared to handle an earthquake?

The recent horrible earthquake in Nepal illustrates how we all need to be prepared and ready to react safely in the event of such a tragic event.

I looked through several Internet sources and, frankly, found no indications at all of Roswell ever being affected by an earthquake of any magnitude, much less by a magnitude of 5.0 or greater.

That seems to be the point at which the population would have any concern.

As a matter of fact, the earthquake history of New Mexico is minimal, although there is some “historical seismicity” concentrated in the Rio Grande Valley between Socorro and Albuquerque. The earliest reported earthquake in New Mexico was an intensity V

ceed without kissing the politicians’ ring.

President Obama famously said, “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

I’d think Hillary Clinton would have learned from the outcry that followed, but no — she then said, “Don’t let anybody tell you that it’s corporations and businesses that create jobs! That old theory, trickle-down economics, has been tried. That has failed.”

But it hasn’t failed.

Free markets lifted a billion people out of poverty during Hillary’s career. She just won’t acknowledge it.

Lawyer-politicians aren’t comfortable with creative destruction they don’t control. They prefer central planning.

That’s why Hillary also said, “I voted to raise the minimum wage. And guess what? Millions of jobs were created.”

This, too, is absurd.

Politicians act as if they can wave a magic wand and grant everyone more money. But minimum wage laws don’t create jobs. They just make lower-paying jobs illegal. Some of those jobs go away. That’s basic economics.

The effect on the econ-

tremor which occurred near Socorro on April 20, 1855, and others followed in 1906 and 1907, in 1919, 1934, and others.

Most of those reflect some broken windows or some fallen plaster as the physical damage done by those quakes. Looking through an old Chaves County emergency operations plan, earthquakes were not noted at all in the 13 hazards listed. .

So why write about it? omy is small because 95 percent of American workers earn more than the minimum. But the more employers are forced to pay, the fewer people they’ll hire. McDonald’s responded to recent demands for higher wages by making plans to replace cashiers with automated services.

Once more, political “solutions” create new problems.

People need jobs, and millions find dignity in work, but not from jobs that others are forced to provide. People want to be genuinely useful.

They don’t just want to go through the motions.

More and more, Americans want jobs that have meaning and “purpose,” says John Havens, author of “Hacking Happiness.”

“Purpose” usually means creating actual wealth.

Governments talk about five-year plans and false guarantees of stability, but truly futuristic thinking happens when governments leave people free to explore, innovate and profit. If the politicians don’t screw that up, that process will create jobs we haven’t even imagined yet.

Several reasons. When such a disaster hits any part of the world as it did in Nepal, I believe we should all take notice.

We should all have some awareness of what is going on in our world, especially when the lives of some 6,000 people were lost.

Secondly, if we travel at all, when we visit other regions within the United States and in other countries, we should be somewhat prepared for any natural disasters which can occur in that region.

Quoting one source, “your only defense against earthquakes is preparedness.”

To begin, before you leave home, find out if your destination has a high level of seismic risk.

Pacific Rim countries such as Japan, China, Indone-

sia, and the Western U.S. experience earthquakes frequently. Likewise, they are common in Mediterranean Europe, the Indian subcontinent and Pacific Island nations. Do some research.

Register with the US embassy if you are traveling overseas. Also, sign up for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) earthquake notification service. You can have text notifications sent to your cell phone. If your cell phone does not work in your destination country, you might rent a cell phone and put that number on your notification profile.

Carry with you a list of emergency contacts, to include local emergency services, hospitals and embassies or consulates. If you don’t speak

the language, bring a list of emergency words or phrases. Certainly, if you are traveling with a group, choose an emergency meeting place. You should also decide on an evacuation route from the hotel after and if, of course, an earthquake or other natural disaster happens. If you are near the ocean, remember that tsunamis frequently follow earthquakes.

Once you arrive, check out your hotel room to decide where you would shelter in the event of an earthquake. You will want to look for interior, window-free walls and sturdy furniture, such as a desk or table to protect yourself. Remember that not all countries have building standards as high as those in the US.

As I continue to write today’s column, it occurs to me that most of the suggestions which are offered are really appropriate for any traveling we may do, even to nearby states. A trip to California, for example, places us in a significantly more risky part of the nation as far as earthquakes go, and a trip to Oklahoma puts us in tornado country. Wherever you may travel, just do a little homework before you go so that you would be aware and prepared. The Internet has some wonderful resources for you.

Have a nice trip!

Police groups object to ‘Don’t Shoot’ art piece in Madison MILWAUKEE (AP) — Police advocacy groups in Wisconsin on Friday objected to a painting displayed at the Madison Public Library that shows an African-American boy pointing a toy gun at three riot police officers who have their weapons aimed at the child, calling it inflammatory and biased.

Artist Mike Lroy said the piece — acrylic and spray paint on canvas, entitled “Don’t Shoot” — is meant to stir emotion and provoke reflection.

The criticism comes as demonstrations endure nationwide to protest the killings of black suspects by white police officers, most recently the death of Freddie Gray while in Baltimore police custody.

In March, a white police officer shot and killed an unarmed biracial man in

Madison, sparking demonstrations.

The Wisconsin Professional Police Association and the Madison Professional Police Officers Association issued a joint statement saying they are “deeply troubled” by the artwork.

The “storm trooper portrayal of officers who appear to threaten a small child only serves to advance patently negative law enforcement stereotypes,” the groups said.

Lroy defended his art.

“Art is a positive outlet for expression, emotion and activism,” Lroy said in a description posted next to the painting, adding that his aim is “to empower black individuals who are feeling angry, forgotten, and demonized by the mainstream narrative.”

The organizations said

to demand that it be removed would not be an appropriate response to free speech, but that they wanted to exercise their own right to be heard.

“This is a sensitive time in our community,” said WPPA executive director Jim Palmer, calling the display “inflammatory, negative, stereotypical and a slap in the face.”

Madison Public Library director Greg Mickells said the piece is displayed in partnership with 100 State, an entrepreneur incubator organization that supported three artists in residence.

“Some of the work will reflect a wide range of views, expressions and interests and may be unorthodox or controversial. The library’s display of these items doesn’t constitute endorsements,”

www.rdrnews.com

Mickells said.

Mickells said library staff knew the artwork would have an impact and that they hoped it would provoke dialogue. He said he would invite the police groups to publish their own statement, which could be displayed next to the piece. Palmer said he would take him up on that offer.

Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne is weighing whether to file criminal charges against city of Madison police officer Matt Kenny, who shot and killed 19-year-old Tony Robinson. Kenny was responding to calls that Robinson had assaulted two people and was running in traffic. Police said Robinson attacked Kenny inside an apartment house.

Signs of a heart attack are rarely this obvious.

May Day demos staged around world

HAVANA (AP) — Left-wing groups, governments and trade unions were staging rallies around the world Friday to mark International Workers Day. Most events were peaceful protests for workers’ rights and world peace. But May 1 regularly sees clashes between police and militant groups in some cities.

International Workers Day originates in the United States. American unions first called for the introduction of an eight-hour working day in the second half of the 19th century. A general strike was declared to press these demands, starting May 1, 1886. The idea spread to other countries and since then workers around the world have held protests on May 1 every year, although the U.S. celebrates Labor Day on the first Monday in September.

Here’s a look at some of the May Day events around the world:

Turkey

Police and May Day demonstrators clashed in Istanbul as crowds determined to defy a government ban tried to march to the city’s iconic Taksim Square.

Security forces pushed back demonstrators using water cannons and tear gas. Protesters retaliated by throwing stones and hurling firecrackers at police.

Authorities have blocked the square that is symbolic as the center of protests in which 34 people were killed in 1977.

Turkish newswires say that 10,000 police officers were stationed around the square Friday.

The demonstrations are the first large-scale protests since the government passed a security bill this year giving police expanded powers to crack down on protesters.

Cuba

Thousands of people converged on Havana’s Plaza of the Revolution for the traditional May Day march, led this year by President Raul Castro and Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.

After attending Cuba’s celebration, Maduro was to fly back to Caracas to attend the May Day observances in his own country.

The parade featured a group of doctors who were sent to Africa to help in the fight against Ebola. Marchers waved little red, white and blue Cuban flags as well as posters with photos of revolutionary leader Fidel Castro, his brother Raul, and the late Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez.

Additional marches were held in major cities around the island, including Santiago and Holguin in the east.

South Korea

Thousands of people marched in the capital Seoul on Friday for a third week to protest government labor policies and the handling of a ferry disaster that killed more than 300 people a year ago.

Demonstrators occupied several downtown streets and sporadically clashed with police officers. Protesters tried to move buses used to block their progress. Police responded by spraying tear gas. There were no immediate reports of injuries.

South Korean labor groups have been denouncing a series of government policies they believe will reduce wages, job security and retirement benefits for state employees.

Philippines

More than 10,000 workers and activists marched in Manila and burned an effigy of Philippine President Benigno Aquino III to

Workers in metropolitan Manila now receive 481 pesos ($10.80) in daily minimum wage after a 15 peso ($0.34) increase in March.

Although it is the highest rate in the country, it is still “a far cry from being decent,” says Lito Ustarez, vice chairman of the leftwing May One Movement.

Greece

In financially struggling Greece, an estimated 13,000 people took part in three separate May Day marches in Athens, carrying banners and shouting anti-austerity slogans.

Minor clashes broke out at the end of the peaceful marches, when a handful of hooded youths threw a petrol bomb at riot police.

No injuries or arrests were reported.

Earlier, ministers from the governing radical left Syriza party joined protesters gathering for the marches, including Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis — who was mobbed by media and admirers — and the ministers of labor and energy.

Germany

Police in Berlin say the traditional ‘Walpurgis Night’ protest marking the eve of May 1 was calmer than previous years.

Several thousand people took part in anti-capitalist street parties in the north of the city. Fireworks and stones were thrown at police, injuring one officer. Fifteen people were detained. Elsewhere in the German capital revelers partied “extremely peacefully,” police noted on Friday morning.

At noon, Green Party activists unveiled a statue at Alexanderplatz in central Berlin of Edward Snowden, Julian Assange and Chelsea Manning, considered heroes by many on the left for leaking secret U.S. intelligence and military documents.

The statue, called “Anything to say,” depicts the three standing on chairs and

is scheduled to go on tour around the world, according to the website anythingtosay.com/.

In the central German city of Weimar far-right extremists attacked a union event. Police said 15 people were injured and 29 were arrested.

Russia

In Moscow, tens of thousands of workers braved chilly rain to march across Red Square. Instead of the red flags with the Communist hammer and sickle used in Soviet times, they waved the blue flags of the dominant Kremlin party and the Russian tricolor.

Despite an economic crisis that is squeezing the working class, there was little if any criticism of President Vladimir Putin or his government.

The Communist Party later held a separate march under the slogan “against fascism and in support of Donbass,” with participants calling for greater support for the separatists fighting the Ukrainian army in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine.

Italy

In Milan, police released water from hydrants against hundreds of demonstrators, many of them scrawling graffiti on walls or holding smoky flares during a march in the city, where the Italian premier and other VIPs were inaugurating Expo, a world’s fair that runs for six months.

An hour into the march, protesters set at least one parked car on fire, smashed store windows, tossed bottles and chopped up pavement.

Italian labor confederation leaders held their main rally in a Sicilian town, Pozzallo, where thousands of migrants from Africa, the Middle East and Asia have arrived in recent weeks after being rescued at sea from smugglers boats. Hoping to settle for the most part in northern Europe, the migrants are fleeing poverty as well as persecution or violent conflicts in their homelands.

Life crawling back to normal in Nepal’s quake-hit capital

KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Fresh croissants emerged from a popular bakery and were quickly snapped up. Farmers delivered fresh produce and lines disappeared at gasoline stations. Slowly, life edged back toward a semblance of normal in Nepal’s quake-hit capital Friday as residents packed up tents and moved indoors.

Arrests rise in Burundi protests; protesters vow to remain

BUJUMBURA, Burundi (AP) — About 500 students spent the night outside the U.S. Embassy in Burundi’s capital, asking the U.S. for protection as street protests against President Pierre Nkurunziza’s decision to seek a third term went into their sixth day.

In the Musaga neighborhood, protesters marched past smoldering barricades Friday while brandishing sticks and metal bars. They tried to reach a major road but were stopped by a cordon of riot police. The demonstrators turned in their sticks, sang the national anthem and after a minute of silence marched back into the neighborhood.

Many protesters say they will not leave the streets until Nkurunziza withdraws his candidacy in the June 26 elections.

Families gathered outside a jail to bring food to those who have been arrested.

Carina Tertsakian, a senior

Rwanda researcher with Human Rights Watch, said Friday that more than 400 people are believed to be in detention as Burundi’s government tries to stop the protests.

The protests started Sunday, a day after the ruling party nominated Nkurunziza to be its candidate.

Some events carried on as normal. At a local sports field, civil servants paraded in front of officials in a May Day celebration.

U.S. Assistant Secretary for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Tom Malinowski, who traveled to Burundi on Wednesday, told reporters that the government has been warned of “real consequences” if the crisis escalates.

Many see Nkurunziza’s decision to run again as a violation of the Arusha Agreements that ended the civil war that killed more than 250,000 people. The fighting between Hutu reb-

els and a Tutsi-dominated army ended in 2003.

Nkurunziza, a Hutu, was selected by Parliament in 2005 to be president. He was re-elected unopposed in 2010. His supporters say he can seek re-election again because he was voted in by lawmakers for his first term, and was not popularly elected.

At least six people have been killed since Sunday, according to the Burundi Red Cross.

Russia’s ambassador to the U.N. confirmed Friday that his country had blocked a proposed Security Council statement on the crisis.

“It’s not the business of the Security Council and the U.N. Charter to get involved in constitutional matters of sovereign states,” Vitaly Churkin told reporters.

Jerry Lee Lewis, Elton John rock the New Orleans Jazz Fest NEW ORLEANS (AP) — With thousands of people packing the infield at the Fair Grounds Race Track, hundreds more ignored “No Chair Zone” and “Standing Room Only” signs, setting up chairs 15 and 20 deep on the dirt track to hear Jerry Lee Lewis and Elton

John on Saturday at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.

Others sat or stood along the chain-link fence between the track and parking lot while incessant streams of people pushed through the 8 feet or so of track that was empty.

“It’s Jazz Fest. Elbows are OK,” said Vanessa Koller of The Woodlands, Texas, one of those standing next to the fence Saturday evening.

Newlyweds Laura and Randy Lamb, both 34, of Matagorda, Texas, were also among the standees.

“People watching is always fun,” Laura Lamb said.

As Lewis, 79, took the stage in a white suit jacket, Laura Lamb said, “Wow. He’s old. Bless his heart.

He’s up there anyhow.”

He swung into “Down the Line,” and people — including those trying to get

somewhere else — yelped, “Woo! Woo!” to his “do right all the time.”

While he was playing, so was a New Orleans brass band created nearly 25 years ago to help students pay tuition at a Catholic high school for girls. The Original Pinettes Brass

Band is still apparently the only all-female group in a jazz-laced tradition dating back to the decades after Emancipation.

“They were certainly the first. And as far as I know, they’re the only one,” said clarinetist and music historian Michael White.

American Pharoah gives trainer Baffert a long-awaited 4th Derby

AP Photo

Victor Espinoza, left, rides American Pharoah to victory in the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby horse race at Churchill Downs Saturday in Louisville, Ky. LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Three times in seven years, Bob Baffert left the Kentucky Derby empty-handed. Two seconds and a sixth-place finish by the wagering favorite.

After a while, those close calls started taking a toll. Even for a three-time Derby winner.

“When you get beat like that, all these seconds, you get to a point in your life, maybe it’s not just going to happen for me,” said Baffert, 62, who suffered a heart attack in Dubai three years ago.

“And then they sent me this horse. And I thought, ‘Wow, here’s my chance.

Don’t mess it up, Bob.’” On this first Saturday in May, Baffert knew he had the best horse in American Pharoah. Still, he needed a dynamic performance and some old-fashioned racing luck.

He got it all — and then some — with a horse that even rival trainers suspect could be a threat to win

racing’s first Triple Crown in 37 years.

Sent off as the 5-2 favorite by the record crowd of 170,513, American Pharoah rallied in the stretch to beat Firing Line by a length and deliver Baffert’s first Derby since 2002.

Rockets win 3rd straight district title

By Jeff Jackson Record Sports Writer

Goddard used some old-school baseball to win its third straight district championship Saturday.

Tied at 4 with Lovington in the bottom of the seventh inning in the first game of a doubleheader, the Rockets executed a suicide squeeze bunt by Justin Martinez to score Nate Chavez to cap a two-run rally and win 5-4.

The Rockets (22-4, 10-2 in district) work on the suicide squeeze play in practices and have tried it occasionally in games, coach Alan Edmonson said.

“We can play little ball and we can play big ball,” Edmonson said. “It’s something we work on. It’s something we worked on against Artesia the other night. But we like to play big ball also.”

Martinez laid down the bunt on the first pitch of his at-bat and did not need a perfect bunt, just one that did not miss.

“When it’s a squeeze all he’s got to do is get it down somewhere because the runner gets a head start,” Edmonson said. “They didn’t have a chance. There was nothing they could do about it.”

The Wildcats (5-21, 1-11) were three outs away from winning only their second district game this season and forcing the Rockets to prevail in the nightcap

Goddard’s Gaylan Young rips a single in game one of Goddard’s district doubleheader against Lovington Saturday afternoon at the Launch Pad at Goddard High School. to claim the district title.

A triple and home run off Mitch Naylor with two outs gave Lovington its 4-3 lead.

Gaylan Young began the Rockets’ seventh inning with his fourth single but was forced at second on a fielder’s choice by Ricky Royball. Derek Farmer tripled to right-center to score Royball and tie the game at 4. Chavez entered the game as a courtesy runner at third for Farmer before Martinez’s game-winning bunt.

“It’s not something we’d call a staple. When the time is right we use it,” Edmonson said of the suicide squeeze.

Naylor worked 6 2/3 innings and should have earned the victory but for

some costly errors, Edmonson said.

“Mitch threw real well today. We just made a couple of mistakes behind him that cost us a couple of runs,” Edmonson said.

In the second game, the Rockets used a relentless barrage of hits and runs to win 20-2. The scored nine times in the first, seven in the second and four in the third.

Young had a triple and two singles, and Cal Villareal smacked three doubles in five at-bats.

The Rockets finished the regular season 22-4 for the third straight season and earned a third straight district championship. “It’s deja vu. It’s turning into ‘Groundhog Day’ out here,”

Edmonson said.

“I think we’ve set the standard for us at Goddard when we’ve been the district champions,” Edmonson said. “There’s not been a string of district championships in 25 years or ever. It’s what we expect out of the kids, step up and find ways to win baseball games.”

Edmonson anticipates the Rockets will receive a top-three seed when the state tournament seedings are announced today and play host to one of eight best-of-three first-round series Friday and Saturday.

NMMI Colts wrap up tennis district individuals, look ahead to state tourney

By Karen Boehler Record Correspondent

The number of NMMI individuals headed to the state tennis tournament will be smaller than a year ago, but on the boys side at least, one of the doubles-team members won it all last year, and he’s confident that he and his new partner can do it again.

The Institute hosted the second day of the District 4-4A tennis tournament Saturday, with players vying for spots in individual singles and doubles. On the boys side, defending state doubles champ Ian Nelson and new partner Juan Felix earned the district title with wins over teams from Portales, Silver and finally, Mesilla Valley Christian School. With Felix missing

Friday’s match, that pair beat Nelson and Jorge Campuzano, but the revamped Colt duo came back for a 6-1, 6-3 win Saturday.

Nelson is confident they can repeat at state as well.

“It feels pretty good,” he said. “It’s kind of like a repeat from last year, because Jose Lira and I won it pretty easily, and this year we did really good work. Felix is a great player, so it’s kind of a recap. We’ve beat, so far, what I know as our only competition in the (Las Vegas) Robertson No. 1 when we went to Robertson, so I’m feeling pretty confident about our chances at state.”

Coach Sean Reeves agreed.

“Ian’s defending state champ, and they have lots of experience,” he said. “So I

The other NMMI doubles team, freshmen Peter DeGroot and Luis Fontes, made it to the third-place game

after falling to the Son Blazer squad, but then couldn’t get past the Silver team, just missing a berth at state.

Colts split twinbill, await postseason fate Mayweather wins by

NMMI’s Peter DeGroot rounds third and heads for home during the Colts doubleheader against Texico Saturday afternoon at NMMI Ballpark.

On Friday night NMMI Colt baseball coach Charlie Ward was confident that if his team could get just one non-district win over Texico Saturday, they’d get a berth in postseason.

The team did just that, topping the Wolverines 10-0 behind strong pitching by Gavin Maloney and 13 hits from the offense, but after dropping game two 6-4, Ward didn’t sound quite as certain.

“That’s a decision the NMMA will decide,” Ward said. “I think by records we should be in, because we have 10 (wins); Hatch has nine; Pojoaque has 10.

I think our record is a lot stronger than Pojoaque’s, but we’ll see. That’s up to them.

“The way we ended up in the game, five unearned runs, just a sour note to how we ended game two.

We fought back, but at this point, two routine pop flies in the infield, that’s baseball. But maybe one game is

enough.”

Maloney one-hit the Wolverines in game one while the Institute scored in every inning. They led 2-0 after one; 3-0 after two; 5-0 after three; 8-0 after four; then ended the game under the mercy rule when Jack Tingwall singled in the fifth and came home on a double

by Francisco Galvez, who advanced to third on the throw. Galvez then scored on a walk-off single by Peter DeGroot.

Galvez was 3-for-4 in the early game, with two runs scored and an RBI. Maloney and Teryn Surratt were each 2-for-3 with an RBI, and DeGroot was 1-for-2 with two runs and an RBI. But all that hitting was mostly non-existent in game two, and four errors made three of Texico’s run unearned.

The Wolverines scored three runs in the first off starter Haden Maloney, all earned off three hits — including a triple by Matt Odegaard. The game was See BASEBALL, Page B3

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Floyd Mayweather Jr. was money once again in the richest fight ever.

Mayweather used his reach and his jab Saturday night to frustrate Manny Pacquiao, piling up enough points to win a unanimous decision in their welterweight title bout. Mayweather remained unbeaten in 48 fights with a win that

cemented his legacy as the best of his generation.

Pacquiao did what he wanted to do, chasing Mayweather around the ring most of the fight. But he was never able to land a sustained volume of punches, often looking frustrated as Mayweather worked his defensive wizardry once See MAYWEATHER, Page B3

“It’s pretty good,” she said. “I kind of figured she would be the one to go to state if any of them because she’s the only one who’s played before, so it’s good.

It’s fun.”

Rebecca Parra lost her first match to MVCS in singles, and the doubles team of Hannah Lee and Jinxiu Dong fell in their play-in match. But with only Ikard and Parra graduating, MacCormack is looking ahead.

“All of them it was their first year playing competitively on a high school team,” she said. “The year

started out, I had to train them all, but it went good.

We have a good team. We almost beat Portales once.

We lost barely, 5-4, so it’s not too bad. Next year we’re going to be pretty good because we have six girls coming back to play, so we’ll have a full team.”

Ikard wasn’t completely happy with Saturday’s performance.

“I feel like I could have done better, but it was tiring and it’s very hot outside, so …”

Although she got one win at state last year before falling to the eventual state champ, Ikard said she doesn’t think she’ll do much better. Still, she’s happy with the opportunity.

The NMMI boys team will have to wait until Sunday to see where they’re seeded at state, but Nelson feel confident they can get their fifth team victory in a row.

“It’s hard to replace a guy like (Gavin) Lynch, and Lira was a great player,” he said.

“We were just solid all the way down. It’s really tough.

But this year, we still have great guys. We still have me. We still have Felix. We have some new talent that looks really promising, and I think, when it comes time to get it done, we can get it done.”

The individual matches start Wednesday in Albuquerque, with the team tournament kicking off Friday.

The only NMMI singles player, sophomore Maximo Othon, won his play-in game vs. Silver, but then fell to the eventual singles champ, Ram Austin Lucero.

Overall, first-year head coach Reeves is looking forward to the state competition.

“It’s my first rodeo, so it’s fun,” he said. “It’s interesting to see how the whole thing is going to work out, and all the guys fought hard today. They fought real hard yesterday. Shorthanded, but we’re interested to see how it’s going to work out.”

On the girls side, Samantha Ikard will be headed to state, having finished third in girls singles with wins over Portales and Mesilla

and Bodemeister, named for Baffert’s son, three years ago.

“This is for the Zayats, who have suffered so much running these seconds,” Baffert said. “We know what it is to just get punched right in the face.”

Baffert also saddled third-place Dortmund, the other part of his lethal 1-2 punch in the 141st Derby.

Firing Line finished second.

“We were ready to rumble,” said Baffert, who went 1-3 in 1998, when Real Quiet won and Indian Charlie was third. “I just love what I saw today from both of my boys.”

Dortmund set a leisurely pace with Firing Line tracking him closely in second. American Pharoah sat comfortably in third down the backstretch.

That trio made it a three-horse race in the stretch, with none of the closers able to make up ground. American Pharoah angled outside and fought off a persistent Firing Line as Dortmund tired along the rail, his six-race winning streak about to end.

“Coming for home I thought I might get there, but it wasn’t to be,” said Gary Stevens, who rode Firing Line.

Now, the moment of truth. Could American Pharoah justify Baffert’s belief that he was an exceptional colt?

“I was on pins and needles all week,” the whitehaired trainer said. “I know I was coming in here with the best horse.”

American Pharoah proved him right.

Still, it was a long road to the winner’s circle for the colt with the unusually short tail — having had it chewed off by another horse on the farm — and the misspelled moniker courtesy of a fan contest.

American Pharoah missed his first big test last year when he was scratched from the Breeders’ Cup with an injury.

He returned with two easy wins this year against lesser competition. Dortmund and several other Derby contenders had beaten much tougher fields, raising questions about whether American Pharoah could mix it up in a 20-horse field.

Victor Espinoza won his second consecutive Derby a year after being aboard California Chrome, and third overall. He and Baffert teamed to win with War Emblem 18 years ago.

“He’s been a special

horse since I first rode him,” Espinoza said. “I feel like the luckiest Mexican on Earth.”

American Pharoah ran 1 1/4 miles in 2:03.02.

Baffert tied D. Wayne Lukas and Herbert “Derby Dick” Thompson for second on the career win list.

American Pharoah paid $7.80, $5.80, $4.20.

Firing Line returned $8.40 and $5.40 at 10-1 odds, while Dortmund was another two lengths back in third and paid $4.20 to show.

Zayat took a pre-Derby blow Friday, when one of his other horses, El Kabeir, was scratched because of a sore foot. Mr. Z, his third entry, finished 13th.

Trainer Todd Pletcher’s trio of Materiality, Itsaknockout and Carpe Diem finished sixth, ninth and 10th.

Frosted was fourth, followed by Danzig Moon, Materiality, Keen Ice and Mubtaahij. Itsaknockout was ninth on the same day Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao fought in Las Vegas.

Carpe Diem was 10th, followed by Frammento, Bolo, Mr. Z, Ocho Ocho Ocho, Far Right, War Story, Tencendur and Upstart.

Yankees say they don’t plan to pay home run bonus to A-Rod

BOSTON (AP) — New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says the team doesn’t plan to pay a $6 million bonus to Alex Rodriguez for his 660th home run.

Cashman spoke Saturday before the Yankees played at Boston. On Friday night, Rodriguez hit No. 660, tying Willie Mays for fourth on the career list.

“We have the right, but not the obligation to do something, and that’s it,” Cashman said.

“So there is no dispute, from our perspective,” he told reporters.

Rodriguez missed last season while serving a drug suspension. The Yankees and A-Rod have a marketing agreement that

calls for $6 million each for up to five achievements, payable within 15 days of designation by the team.

The accomplishments were contemplated to be homers 660, 714, 755, 762 and 763 as he moved up baseball’s list. Rodriguez trails only Babe Ruth (714), Hank Aaron (755) and Bonds (762).

The Yankees didn’t market his pursuit of Mays’ mark.

“It’s not ‘you do this, you get that.’ It’s completely different. It’s not all of a sudden, we’re choosing not to do something,” Cashman said.

“If we choose to pursue something, we will choose to pursue it. If we choose not to, it’s our right not

to. In both cases, we’re honoring the contract,” Cashman said.

No payment likely would trigger a grievance on Rodriguez’s behalf by the players’ union. Without a settlement, the case would be heard by an arbitrator.

“The great thing about contracts, if there are any disputes, there’s a system in place to determine if there is some misunderstanding,” he said. “I don’t think there’s any misunderstanding.”

Rodriguez hasn’t commented on what legal path he would take.

“Those things will take care of themselves,” he said Friday night.

at 10-15. I thought we battled playing in the state of 4A competition. That’s not the way you want to end the game, but very proud of the season and very proud of the career I’ve had at NMMI if this is my last game at NMMI.” Ward said he will be retiring from teaching in the Roswell Independent School District after spending the

last 30 years in the state, but just what will happen regarding NMMI is still up in the air.

“We’ll let the chips fall as they may here in about three or four weeks, and we’ll take it from there,” he said. “But NMMI has been great to me and these kids at NMMI, they’re just great kids. Baseball is just baseball.”

then scoreless through the fourth, when the Colt bats finally came alive.

Haden Maloney singled then came home on a triple by Jake Guerrero. Matt Fierro, who took over pitching in the top of the stanza, doubled to score Guerrero, then pinch runner Connor Roe went to third on a ground out and came home on a Galvez single to short.

But Galvez was caught stealing, and the inning ended at 3-3.

The fifth was scoreless, but the Wolverines got three runs back in the sixth, scoring on only two hits and three NMMI errors to make it 6-3. Fierro and Austin Daughtry combined to keep the seventh scoreless, and it looked as though the Colts might keep the game alive.

Tingwall singled to shallow center, but was out on a fielder’s choice by Galvez, who advanced on a wild pitch. A strikeout put two outs on the board, but Michel Hinojos and Gavin Maloney each singled, scoring Galvez and putting the winning run at the plate. But Haden Maloney couldn’t get it done, hitting into a fielder’s choice and ending the game and the regular season.

Hinojos was the only Colt with multiple hits, going 3-for-4.

How does Ward feel about the season should the game be the Colts’ last?

“It’s been a tough season,” he said. “Even if it’s my last year as a head coach here at NMMI, it’s not the way you want to end it,

Two ringside judges scored the fight 116-112, while the third had it 118110. The Associated Press had Mayweather ahead 115113.

“I’m a calculated fighter, he is a tough competitor,” Mayweather said. “My dad wanted me to do more but Pacquiao is an awkward fighter.”

The richest fight in boxing history — a bout that made Mayweather at least $180 million — wasn’t the best. Far from it, with long periods where both fighters fought cautiously, looking for an edge.

There were no knock-

downs, and neither fighter seemed terribly hurt at any time. Pacquiao landed probably the biggest punch in the fight in the fourth round — a left hand that sent Mayweather into the ropes — but he wasn’t able to consistently land against the elusive champion.

The fight was a chess match, with Mayweather using his jab to keep Pacquiao away most of the fight. Pacquiao tried to force the action, but Mayweather was often out of his reach by the time he found his way inside.

“I thought I won the fight, he didn’t do anything,” Pacquiao said. “I got him many

times with a lot of punches.”

A sellout crowd at the MGM Grand arena roared every time Pacquaio threw a punch, but a good percentage of what he threw never landed. Mayweather often came back with straight right hands, then moved away before Pacquiao could respond.

Ringside punch stats showed Mayweather landing 148 punches of 435, whilc Pacquiao landed 81 of 429.

The volume of punches for Pacquiao was a lot lower than the 600-700 he usually throws in a fight as he tried to measure his aggression against an opponent who was hard to trap.

Paul lifts Clippers past Spurs, 111-109 in Game 7

LOS ANGELES (AP) — It figured that the most entertaining first-round series in the NBA playoffs would come down to a play involving Chris Paul and Tim Duncan.

Paul, who willed himself back from an early hamstring injury, banked in a shot over Duncan with a second left to lift the Los Angeles Clippers to a wild 111-109 victory in Game 7 on Saturday night that eliminated the defending NBA champion San Antonio Spurs from the playoffs.

After Duncan made two free throws to tie it with 8.8 seconds left, Paul drove the right side. He originally was covered by Danny Green before Duncan came over to help. Paul put up a one-handed shot over the 39-year Spurs star that went in as he was falling away.

Paul said coach Doc Rivers called him and Blake Griffin over at the end of the morning walk-through to talk about last-shot scenarios.

“We’ve been in that situation a lot of times already this year, and most of the time I hadn’t made it,” Paul said. “We talked about it, and finally it worked when we needed it.”

Rivers said Paul is “just a tough kid. He’s a street fighter. I mean, he really is.

I love him to death because of his will.”

Duncan said Paul’s shot was “just unbelievable. I know he was playing a little hurt, and he played through all that, found ways to get it done. I mean, just an unbelievable last shot over two of us. He’s just a great leader, and it was amazing to watch. I wish I wasn’t on the other end.”

Matt Barnes knocked away the inbound pass to seal the victory and the Staples Center crowd went crazy after the Clippers advanced to the Western Conference semifinals for just the fourth time in franchise history.

The Clippers, who faltered at home in Games 2 and 5, move on to face the Rockets starting Monday night in Houston.

“It’s only round one, but that team over there, I mean, it’s crazy that this was the first round of the playoffs,” Paul said.

Paul scored 18 of his 27 points in the second half, including four big 3-pointers.

Duncan had 27 points and 11 rebounds, his sixth double-double of the series.

Paul missed the final 2 minutes of the first quarter and the first 5 1/2 minutes of the second quarter.

He appeared to get hurt as he dribbled up court before making a 3-pointer. He sat on the bench with his head in his hands before leaving

CHICAGO (AP) — Quarterbacks Bryce Petty and Brett Hundley found their way into the NFL on Day 3 of the draft Saturday — heading to entirely different circumstances.

Baylor’s Petty went to the New York Jets, who’ve had inconsistency at the position for years. UCLA’s Hundley will journey to Green Bay, where hardly anyone can remember the last time the Packers had questions behind center.

The Jets made an early splash in the fourth round after a night of contemplating who remained on the board. New York moved up one spot in a deal with Jacksonville to get the prolific passer who operated a spread offense in college.

Petty will have plenty to learn in the pros, and will have Geno Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Matt Simms ahead on the depth chart.

But the Jets have not truly been set at quarterback since the days of Chad Pennington, and new coach Todd Bowles has no ties to the other QBs. As for the big transition, Petty was confident he can do it smoothly.

“What I was asked to do in college, it was different, but it’s not because I couldn’t do a pro-style offense or West Coast offense or whatever,” he said. It’s what I was told to do, and I did it.”

Hundley, who went in the first round of some mock drafts, instead had to wait until No. 147 overall. His next stop is Lambeau Field, hardly a quarterbacking abyss.

“I think Green Bay is the perfect organization to learn as much as possible, and they have the best coaches to help me do that,” Hundley said. “And Aaron Rodgers.”

Another quarterback went in the fourth round — well a former QB, Blake Bell of Oklahoma. The “Belldozer” is now a tight end and wound up San Francisco.

“In your eyes, you’re kind of just, ‘Hey, I played quarterback before. So, it’s I can see the coverage, man, zone, what the corner’s doing, linebackers, D-ends, stuff like that,’ “ he said. “It obviously helped.”

Tennessee began the fourth round by taking defensive tackle Angelo Blackson of Auburn. His partner at the position with

the Tigers, Gabe Wright, went to Detroit soon after.

Cincinnati chose cornerback Josh Shaw of Southern California, who had a 10-game suspension when he lied to school officials about how he sprained his ankles in a preseason fall. Shaw jumped 20 feet from a balcony following an argument with his girlfriend in late August. He then made up an elaborate story about saving his nephew from drowning in a swimming pool.

“I know that I’m selected in the fourth round primarily because of that incident and me lying,” he said.

“The most important thing I learned is to not even put myself in that position and always be truthful.”

The first player drafted from Navy in 20 years, long snapper Joe Cardona, went 186th to New England. He was the only player at that position at the combine in February.

“Right now I’m prepared to be the best football player I can be for the New England Patriots, and the best naval officer I can be,” Cardona said. “Whatever duty I’m doing at the time I’m doing it, I’m just prepared to do my best. “ The last Middie selected was tight end Kevin Hickman by Detroit in the sixth round.

One spot earlier, the first kicker was chosen, punter Bradley Pinion of Clemson going to San Francisco. He will try to unseat veteran Andy Lee. “Andy’s been in the league a long time and he’s a great punter,” Pinion said. “There’s a reason he’s been in the league 10 years. They said it’s an open competition and let the best person win.”

UAB, which has disbanded its football program, had two players selected: WR J.J. Nelson to Arizona in the fifth round, TE Kennard Backman to Green Bay in Round 6.

Florida State All-America TE Nick O’Leary, the grandson of Jack Nicklaus, wound up with Buffalo in the sixth, and, fittingly on Saturday, A.J. Derby, tight end from Arkansas, went to New England.

The final pick of the shortest seven-round draft at 13 hours, 45 minutes, is dubbed “Mr. Irrelevant.”

The, uh, honor went to Louisville tight end Gerald Christian, who was selected

by Arizona.

“I thought about the team and all the things we’d been through,” Paul said. “I know that if it was any other guy on our team in a situation like this, they wouldn’t lay down, so I just tried to find

a way.”

Blake Griffin had 24 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists for Los Angeles for his second triple-double of the series.

The Clippers trailed by five points with 5:42 left before

Griffin made two free throws and J.J. Redick a 3-pointer to tie it at 97 with 3:58 to go.

The teams traded leads during the final minutes, with Duncan, Kawhi Leonard and Manu Ginobili scoring for the Spurs and

Barnes hitting a 3-pointer for the Clippers.

Maxine Mae Morrison Machen

A loving mother, grandmother and good friend, Maxine Mae Morrison Machen, 92, passed from this life into the arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on April 25, 2015.

The first child of Harvey L. and Bernice Roush, Maxine was born in Oakland, CA, on January 30, 1923, and, as she loved to relate, in a hospital overlooking an artichoke patch.

She grew up in California with her sister, Nadine.

She spent seven years in and out of the Shriner’s Orthopedic Children’s Hospital in San Francisco, where she experienced great love and compassion at their ministering hands.

Maxine fell in love with her sailor boy, John Foch (J.F. - Jeff) Morrison, at the beginning of WWII. After being separated 19 long months, they married during his shore leave in June of 1943. Maxine became very sick during her early 20s, and she and Jeff moved to Phoenix, AZ. She said she would forever be grateful for this illness as she came to know Jesus Christ as her Savior during this time. Following the war, they lived in California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. While living in Texas, two daughters were born to the Morrison clan: Lanice and Tressa. They settled in Hobbs, NM and attended Taylor Memorial Baptist Church, where she taught Sunbeams, a children’s ministry. While living in Hobbs, Maxine worked for J.C. Penney and later with the State of New Mexico’s Health Department.

The family moved to Roswell in 1967 where they joined South Manor Baptist Church and later First Baptist Church. After 32 years in a loving marriage with Maxine, Jeff passed away in 1975 following a long illness.

Maxine spent 25 years as a social worker with the State of New Mexico’s Children’s Medical Services here in Roswell. Assisting families with their sick children was her calling, not just a job. Maxine did everything possible to help these children as if they were her own. Many friendships were forged during this time.

During the years she taught adult Sunday school at First Baptist Church here in Roswell, Maxine met Harry Machen when he became the substitute teacher for her Sunday school class. Several years after the death of his wife, Pat, Maxine and Harry fell in love, marrying August 8, 2001. During their 12-year marriage, Maxine inherited a second family of two sons and two daughters. Harry passed away August 1, 2013.

Maxine loved and served the Lord Jesus and her heart’s desire was to know Him better, spending many hours praying, reading and studying her Bible. A true friend, she had a servant’s heart and loved doing for others. She was a hard worker and never sought the limelight. Maxine loved spending time with her family and friends. She loved music and took piano

lessons after she retired.

She greatly enjoyed time spent fishing, loved flowers, playing dominoes and card games with friends, crocheting baby blankets and knitting dishcloths for her friends.

Maxine is survived by and will be greatly missed by her family: Lanice White, her husband Gary White, of Roswell, and their daughter, Terry Kay Gilbert, her husband, Brian Gilbert, and their four children: Holly, Christine, Chase and Spencer of Las Cruces, NM; and Tressa Caddell, her husband, Joe Caddell, and son, Neil and his wife, Yvette, all of San Antonio, TX; Harry’s children: Don Machen, his late wife, Carol, and their five children, of Metamora, Illinois; Chris Wilkes and her husband, Larry, and their five children, of Coffeyville, KS; Russ Machen and his wife, Ann, and their two children, of Cortez, CO; and Jane Machen of Hudson Falls, NY. The family wishes to thank the staff of Peachtree Village where Maxine lived for the last 10 years for their love and many kindnesses, as well as the nurses, volunteers and chaplain of Gentiva Hospice for the wonderful, kind and loving support extended to Maxine and to her children during her illness.

A private graveside service officiated by her pastor Bro. Richard Grisham was held on April 29. A memorial service for Maxine will be held at Peachtree Village later in May. Donation remembrances in Maxine’s honor may be made to Ezra International, P.O. Box 120926, Clermont, FL 34712-0926, ezrainternational.org, or to a charity of your choice.

for animals and the land by becoming a rancher in the Hondo Valley. Pat was an award-winning member of the Wool Growers Association. He was also a member of the San Patricio Polo Club and a dedicated family man. Pat not only taught the value of hard work to his daughters and the several nephews and nieces who spent their summers on the Joyce Ranch, but also showed them how to have fun. He was an avid reader with a great thirst for knowledge as well as a big heart and helping hand. In the most recent years of his life, Pat enjoyed the company of his family and friends. His bright blue eyes and contagious laugh (or sense of humor and laugh) will be remembered and celebrated by all of those whose lives he touched.

A memorial service in his honor will be held Monday, May 4, 2015, at 10 a.m. at Ballard Funeral Home. Dr. Doug Mills of First United Methodist Church will officiate.

Donations can be made in Pat’s name to the Cowboy Bell Scholarship Foundation at the First United Methodist Church, 200 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Roswell, NM 88202 or a charity of one’s choice.

1 in 4 renters must use half their pay for housing costs

Nation/Obituaries Obituaries

This Feb. 27 photo shows a sign advertising a house for rent in Los Angeles. More than one-in-four renters must devote at least half of their family income to housing and utilities, according to a new analysis of Census data by Enterprise Community Partners, a nonprofit that helps finance affordable housing.

WASHINGTON (AP) — More than one in four U.S. renters have to use at least half their family income to pay for housing and utilities.

That’s the finding of an analysis of Census data by Enterprise Community Partners, a nonprofit that helps finance affordable housing. The number of such households has jumped 26 percent to 11.25 million since 2007.

Since the end of 2010, rental prices have surged at nearly twice the pace of average hourly wages, according to data from the real estate firm Zillow and the Labor Department.

“It means making really difficult trade-offs,” said Angela Boyd, a vice president at Enterprise Community Partners.

“There are daily financial dilemmas about making their rent or buying groceries.”

The crisis reflects one of the shortcomings of the recovery from the Great Recession: Income has failed to match rent increases. At the same time, construction has failed to keep pace with demand from renters. The recession pushed more millennials, former homeowners who faced foreclosure and low-wage workers into rental housing.

A result is that 2.3 million more families face pressures that leave them perilously close to homelessness. It’s a reality faced by Lisette Duarte, a 37-year-old living in a two-bedroom apartment with her family in northeast Los Angeles.

Duarte’s husband lost his job as an electrician more than three years ago. With both their son and daughter on the autistic spectrum and in need of care, he chose to stay at home while she worked a job requiring a 90-minute commute each way. The lost income forced them out of a three-bedroom house and eventually into a hotel, where vouchers over the course of five months helped them save for a security deposit for an apartment.

About a year ago, the family moved into a two-bedroom apartment in the Highland Park neighborhood where Duarte had grown up.

Two-bedrooms in that gentrifying community rent for an average of about $1,600 a month, according to the online service Apartment List. The expense, along with utilities, consumes half of Duarte’s paycheck. The government defines housing costs in excess of 30 percent of income as burdensome.

The family relies on prepaid cellphones. They don’t dine out or go on vacations. Whatever extra income they have often goes for health care.

More than 30 percent of renters in California, Florida, New Jersey and New York state devote at least half their incomes to housing and utilities, according to the analysis. Other than Alaska, South Dakota and Wyoming, at least 20 percent of renters in every state face similarly high costs relative to income.

The analysis was developed for a “Make Room” awareness campaign sponsored by Enterprise Community Partners.

As part of the campaign, pop stars such as Carly Rae Jepsen

of “Call Me Maybe” fame, who sang for the Duartes, are performing concerts in the homes of financially distressed tenants.

Enterprise Community Partners’ analysis dovetails with findings from other organizations. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has estimated that 12 million renters and homeowners spend at least 50 percent of their income on housing.

And Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies found in a 2013 report that roughly 27 percent of renters were devoting half their incomes to rent. Those levels were “unimaginable just a decade ago,” the report said.

Average hourly wages have risen just 2.1 percent in the past 12 months, according to the Labor Department, while rental prices have climbed 3.7 percent, Zillow said last week.

Many renters lack the income to pay the cost of maintaining and operating these buildings, said Barry Zigas, director of housing policy at the Consumer Federation of America and a trustee at the nonprofit Mercy Housing.

Mercy Housing has a portfolio of 12,000 units for low-income people and senior citizens. It costs an average of roughly $500 a month to manage each unit, Zigas said.

A monthly rent of $500 would mean that anyone working full time for a minimum wage would devote more than a third of his or her income to housing.

Either the tenants must fork over a greater share of their pay each year or landlords may let buildings fall into disrepair.

“Low-income renters are getting caught in a total squeeze play, as are the owners of the properties,” Zigas said.

The Great Recession caused waves of foreclosures and layoffs that pushed more Americans into renting. More than 36 percent of people now rent, compared with 31 percent before the recession began in late 2007. The increased demand has yet to be matched by construction and renovations.

In March, the National Low Income Housing Coalition reported a shortage of 7.1 million apartments for low-income renters. The shortages are most pronounced in Nevada, California, Arizona, Oregon, Florida, Colorado and Utah.

Construction firms are building apartment complexes at an annual pace of roughly 321,333 this year, according to the Commerce Department.

The rising rental prices suggest that construction hasn’t kept pace with demand, according to economists.

For renters such as Duarte, the plan is that her husband can eventually return to work as their children reach adulthood, easing some of their financial pressures.

“I hope that we never encounter homelessness again,” she said.

Leonard Claude Ferguson Sr., was born on Dec 11, 1931, in Knoxville, Tennessee, to Blaine Underwood and Iva Stuart Ferguson.

As a young man, Leonard wore many hats, working as an insurance agent, electrician and even as a cook for a while.

In 1950, Leonard enlisted in the Air Force and was stationed at Walker Air Force Base in Roswell, New Mexico. During that time he met and married May Belle Cole in 1951.

Together they shared six children. After 25 years, their marriage ended, but they remained friends until her passing in 2005.

Later in life he discovered his true passion, which was carpentry.

Leonard was very talented, and he could build anything out of wood. He often told his family that while sleeping he built an entire set of kitchen cabinets in his dreams.

So when he woke up at 4

a.m., he would put pencil to paper, and there would be the most beautiful set of cabinets, along with a cut list, so work could begin.

In 1995, he was blessed with another daughter at the age of 64. After years of raising her, he left the family home. Sadly he lost contact with her.

Leonard knew that he had made mistakes that he regretted and wished his actions had not driven her away from the rest of the family that loved her.

Leonard was preceded in death by both of his parents; Iva and stepfather Clifford Ferguson; two sons; Richard Lee Ferguson and Leonard Claude Ferguson Jr.; one daughter; Katherine Joan Wright; and one grandson; George Alan Bussey.

He is survived by daughters; Pat Rupe, Sandy Barnhill and Juanita Ferguson; son; Edwin Ferguson and wife Jonice Ferguson. Leonard was also blessed with 13 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren.

A viewing is scheduled on May 4, 2015, at 10 a.m., at Anderson-Bethany Funeral Home & Crematory. Graveside service will follow at South Park Cemetery at 11 a.m. Dan Holt from Victory Baptist Church will officiate. The Fraternal Order of Eagles will be hosting a luncheon at 12:30 p.m. at 3201 S. Sunset Ave. for friends and family. Everyone is invited.

Clara Apodaca Jauregui

Clara Jauregui, 87, passed away on April 27, 2015, in Alamogordo, New Mexico. She was born on August 3, 1927, in La Luna, New Mexico, to Nicholas and Manuelita (Ortega) Apodaca.

Clara was married to Henry Jauregui in Carrizozo, NM. They worked hand-in-hand in the restaurant business for over 30 years as both owners and operators.

Restaurants included Hen ry’ s P la ce an d Th e Bus Stop Cafe. The couple retired in Roswell, NM with their son Christobal and his family. The couple enjoyed each other’s

company until Henry’s death in 2008.

Many people came to know Clara as a kind and gentle soul who showed compassion to others and readily gave of herself.

Her kindness made others feel as if one of her own. Clara was dedicated to her family, and helped raise three generations of children. Her sense of humor won her many friends; a witty reply was never far from her tongue.

Survivors include her grandson, Abel Jauregui of Roswell, NM; three great-grandchildren, Roman Jauregui, Ariana Jauregui, and Carlos Jauregui all of Roswell, NM, and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Henry Jauregui, her son, Christobal Jauregui, and parents, Nicholas and Manuelita Apodaca.

The rosary and Mass for Clara Jauregui was recited this past Friday at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Alamogordo NM, with Celebrant.

A memorial service will take place in Roswell on Monday, May 4, 2015, at 5:30 p.m. at Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory with Fr. Joe Pacquing of Assumption Catholic Church.

The Jauregui family would like to say thank you to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory.

Roswell Daily Record

Showtime’s ‘Penny Dreadful’ takes satanic turn in 2nd season ARDMORE STUDIOS, Ireland (AP) — John Logan, the creator, writer and show runner of Showtime’s “Penny Dreadful,” has a studio full of surprises in store for fans of the Victorian Gothic horror series.

But the biggest one of all might be lurking in his own head.

Showtime’s “Penny Dreadful,” which makes its season 2 premiere Sunday at 10 p.m. EDT, is, in a most peculiar fashion, the story of his own life. Of his desire to be accepted, appreciated, loved — and his fear of being reviled.

“My characters share a sense of monstrousness, either perceived or actual.

That’s why I wrote it,” said Logan, 53, in an interview with The Associated Press on the Irish set of the series. “When I realized I was gay, in the early ‘70s, it wasn’t socially acceptable.

I was torn between what I knew to be true about myself — and what I knew would mark me as different and alien and monstrous to many people — would separate me from my friends and family. So the very thing that made me who I was — and empowered me — also isolated me.”

This shadow from his own teenage years, Logan says, guides his approach to shaping the eccentric blend of characters of “Penny Dreadful.” They include his own creations — the satanically tormented Vanessa Ives (Eva Green), the gun-slinging American werewolf in London, Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett), and the colonial adventurer haunted by grief, Sir Malcolm Murray (Timothy Dalton) — alongside figures drawn from the most stylized corners of the gothic literary canon: Doc-

tor Frankenstein and his Creature, and the ageless Dorian Gray.

“All the characters manifest some version of that central dilemma. So to me it’s a deeply personal story,” said Logan. “Yes, it has all the tropes of a horror show. Yes, it deals with great literary characters.

But really for me it’s about the yearning and pain and search for love in those characters.”

The survival stakes have been raised for Ives & Co. Last year’s vampires often proved hard to find and easy to blow away. This season, a seemingly peripheral character from the first — Evelyn Poole, otherwise known as the mystic Madame Kali — is revealed to be a witch with a direct line to Satan himself, and a hit squad of sexy deputies who gut their victims in the buff.

Viewings of early season-two episodes suggest that Logan continues to have his richly melodramatic cake and eat it too, his fantastical plot kept grounded by a core of strong performances led by Green and Rory Kinnear as Frankenstein’s poetic and sensitive Creature.

Touring the “Penny Dreadful” set at Ardmore, Ireland’s oldest film studio near the oak forests and wind-swept hills of Wicklow south of Dublin, reveals Logan’s obsessive attention to every detail of his 1892 London universe. A warehouse is packed to the rafters with seemingly half of Ireland’s real-life Victoriana, a project that pumped more than $1 million into the grateful auction houses of Ireland.

He’s quick to credit the ingenuity of key team members, including Academy

Telethon that Jerry Lewis memorably ran pulls plug NEW YORK (AP) — The Muscular Dystrophy Association telethon is ending its annual Labor Day telethon, a television tradition for decades that has slowly disappeared from view since the sudden end of Jerry Lewis’ role as host following the 2010 show.

The telethon was a relic from a different age, a tuxedoed Lewis oozing show biz schmaltz and hosting stars from Frank Sinatra to Jennifer Lopez over 45 years, pushing through his exhaustion to sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” as a tote board rang up millions of dollars in donations.

From 21 and a half hours in Lewis’ final year, the show had been reduced two hours the last two years on ABC. “It’s not a 21-hour world anymore,” said Steve Ford, MDA executive vice president, on Friday.

With television time costly, the MDA’s fundraising efforts will move primarily online, he said.

The success of a viral event like “The Ice Bucket Challenge” proves this is a potent area for philanthropy, he said.

“The real heroes have always been our families, and what we need to do is make sure that every dollar we raise is spent working for our families,” he said.

The Labor Day tote board hit a record of $65 million in 2008, a figure Ford said reflected a full year’s worth of fundraising activities capped off by the telethon. The MDA says the telethon itself has been responsible for more than $2 billion in giving.

Lewis’ abrupt exit, announced by the MDA a month before the 2011 telethon, was never fully explained. There was no immediate comment on

Friday’s announcement from the 89-year-old comedian’s spokeswoman.

His history with the charity goes back nearly to its beginning: the MDA was started in 1950 and, a year later, Lewis and his comic partner Dean Martin mentioned the charity on their NBC show. The two comics hosted a 1956 telethon before breaking up. Lewis began hosting it regularly in 1966, starting on a single television station in New York.

The telethon was not without controversy; in the early 1990s it was picketed by a handful of disabled people who said people with the disease were being made objects of pity by Lewis in order to raise money.

Yet his roster through the years represented a who’s who of entertainment, including a post-Beatles John Lennon, Michael Jackson singing with and without his brothers, Liberace, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles and Celine Dion.

Former Johnny Carson sidekick Ed McMahon filled the same role with Lewis on Labor Day for many years.

In 1976, Sinatra engineered a reunion of Lewis with Martin, his estranged former partner.

With years of telethon tapes, the MDA has the equivalent of years of show biz gold in its vaults. Ford said the MDA has been discussing with Lewis ways to release some of this archived material.

This photo provided by Showtime shows Timothy Dalton, left, as Sir Malcolm, and Helen McCrory as Evelyn Poole, in a scene from the television series, “Penny Dreadful.”

Award-winning costume designer Gabriella Pescucci; production designer Jonathan McKinstry and set decorator Philip Murphy, who have just received BAFTA honors for their work on the show; and prosthetics guru Nick Dudman, who started as an apprentice designing Yoda in “Star Wars” and spent a decade overseeing makeup and creature effects for the “Harry Potter” franchise.

But as Logan strides though three sound stages and a newly built back lot occupied year-round by his production, he emphasizes his own sense of responsibility. The Californian spends half the year in Dublin, guiding Season 2 even as he writes Season 3 and polishes plays and film scripts, including the next James Bond film, “Spectre,” due out this November.

“This is my show and every buck stops here,” Logan says as he walks through a mind-bending construction of Kali’s mansion, which has been designed deliberately to confuse the unwary visitor with a maze of hallways. Its central stairs coil like a snake, its walls bear dragon-like scales, and the witch’s parlor is the show-stopper: Thousands of skulls and other human bones form a revolting mosaic, centered on a coat of arms featuring an infant’s skeleton with a raven’s head. Flickering candelabras illuminate the nightmare.

Upstairs are the sets for Ives’ austere existence, where she prays to her crucifix in hopes of keeping the underworld at bay. Logan notes his requirement for bespoke paintings executed

in the style of real Victorian-era English artists, and the walls themselves must reinforce the mood of the character.

In Ives’ parlor, where she divines the future from tarot cards, Logan says the background received a month’s worth of on-camera color tests. “Right now they look a little tomato, but when they’re lit, they have an aubergine or purple quality. The trim on her dresses is frequently that sort of aubergine or purple.

This is her color,” he says proudly before striding to the next room, the bedroom where Green performed scenes of wall-climbing possession in Season 1.

“This is my favorite set, Vanessa’s bedroom. She’s the fulcrum of the show,” Logan says. “What’s important to her is a blank wall with a cross on it, so

we stripped everything back. Victoriana is banned here. There’s no chintz, no clutter. I wanted it to feel like the third act of (Henrik) Ibsen’s ‘Ghosts.’ I wanted it to feel like a gray fjord.”

In the set’s basement, a space used last year as the Creature’s theater hideaway has become a waxworks assembly line filled with pale severed heads and gnarled hands. A house of wax with “chambers of grotesqueries and gore” is to be the Creature’s new employer.

A visitor can imagine the monsters and murderers within, including a model of Jack the Ripper, springing to life. Will they? Not for the first time, Logan keeps his tarot cards close to his chest.

“We’ll see,” Logan says with a mischievous grin.

Expo 2015 a potential diplomatic setting

MILAN (AP) — The Expo 2015 world’s fair showed potential as a backdrop for serious diplomacy as it opened Friday for a sixmonth run, even as it also served as a lightning rod for anti-globalization protests.

North Korea stepped out of its isolation as a last-minute participant, and there are signs that Turkey may use the occasion to reach out to the Vatican weeks after it recalled its ambassador to the Holy See over the pope describing the slaughter of Armenians by Ottoman Turks as genocide.

With food as the theme of this year’s event, culinary delights from host Italy and beyond will be one of the main draws for the fair’s hoped-for 20 million visitors. But the Milan Expo already had greater ambitions, with the Italian government backing a process to create a document of solutions to fight hunger and food waste, among other goals.

A violent protest Friday, however, left torched cars, smashed bank and shop windows and other damage in the streets of downtown Milan, far from Expo’s sprawling grounds on the financial capital’s outskirts. Protesters split off from a generally non-violent march a few hours after Italian Premier Matteo Renzi inaugurated the fair.

Police fired tear gas and sprayed water after protesters, many wearing scarves or hoods to mask their faces, tossed bottles and incendiary devices, set cars and garbage bins afire and smashed pavement. Firefighters worked to extinguish the blazes.

Milan police said 11 officers were injured and that an unspecified number of protesters were detained.

Some marchers’ placards protested a high-speed rail line being built in northern Italy as well as Expo 2015 and other “big projects.”

With millions of vis-

Activists wearing gas masks take part in a protest against the Expo 2015 fair in Milan, Italy, Friday. itors expected to come to Milan for Expo in the coming months, Milan Mayor Giuliano Pisapia said “the delinquents devastating Milan (will) be isolated, identified and punished” without exception.

Bracing for any more violence, police presided over intersections leading to Milan’s La Scala opera house, where “Turandot,” with a VIP audience, was on the program Friday evening. Only theater workers and those with tickets were being allowed to approach the theater.

In a peaceful protest Thursday by students, participants opposed the inclusion of food corporations like Coca Cola, Nestle and McDonald’s in the fair. Protester Selam Tesfai said those companies don’t adhere to the Expo’s slogans of “feeding the planet” and “energy for life.”

“They only gonna to try to make profits on our lives and we are tired of that,” she said.

Pope Francis hailed Expo’s hunger-fighting goals in a speech Friday delivered by video from Vatican City to a VIP audience at the Expo’s inauguration, speaking of the

“millions of people who are hungry today, who don’t eat today in a way worthy of a human being.”

“I’d want every person, starting today, who visits the Expo in Milan, passing through these marvelous pavilions, to be able to feel the presence of those faces,” Francis said.

The ambition of the “Milan Charter” is to get individuals, civil groups and businesses to back a series of solutions to hunger, a diplomatic trend that recognizes that some problems are too vast for governments alone to resolve.

“What the Italians are doing with this international exposition is creating a global platform that brings the representatives of 145 countries together convening around a key topic, that is food and food security, and the question of how to feed 9 billion people,” said Philip T. Reeker, the U.S. consul general in Milan.

He called it “the essence of public diplomacy” focused on “a policy question that concerns us all.”

Still, the Expo could also host more than soft diplomacy.

The Vatican’s top culture official, Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, welcomed the prospect of an invitation to the Turkish pavilion, and extended his own to Turkish officials to visit the Vatican pavilion “dedicated to themes that can be shared also by the Muslim world.” He cited spiritual and physical hunger, charity and fasting.

The addition of North Korea just weeks before the Expo’s opening was unexpected. Expo officials included the isolationist nation in a thematic cluster dedicated to islands — more metaphorically than geographically apt. Just what form North Korea’s participation in Expo will take wasn’t clear because that cluster of pavilions wasn’t complete yet.

The U.N. food aid agency began giving North Korea food in the 1990s. Some opponents say this and other aid was siphoned off to North Korea’s military and nuclear weapons programs, benefiting the elite and easing pressures on the country’s rulers to face North Korea’s economic problems.

Each year students at the high schools in Chaves County can participate in the high school mentorship program, which is sponsored by the DWI Prevention Program. Stduents are assigned a mentor and get to work through problems as well as create a commercial against drinking and driving. The students even go to Santa Fe every year to speak with the governor, lieutenent governor and House representatives about issues like the PARCC test and drinking and driving. Once students complete the program, they go through a graduation ceremony.

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor Students who want to skip the parties and alcohol during the graduation party season will have the opportunity to participate in Project Graduation at their high school.

Project Graduation, or Project Celebration, is a lock-in that takes place at all the high schools in Chaves County so students can celebrate graduating without the alcohol, said Diane Taylor, DWI Prevention Specialist.

“It’s the last time these kids are going to be together as a class,” she said.

Project Graduation started almost 30 years ago after losing kids to drinking and driving crashes for three years in a row.

“Ever since then we have not had one fatality with a graduate,” Taylor said.

Partying after grad uating, Taylor said, is “almost like a rite of passage” but while it could be considered a rite of passage, it still is not safe, or legal, to drink underage.

“The cognitive part of your brain doesn’t make the right decisions (when intoxicated),” she said.

Parents at the high schools raise money to put on the lock-in while the DWI Prevention Program donates money.

At the lock-in students are fed and there are activities to keep students entertained all night, Taylor said.

“It just provides them a time to really, really celebrate,” she said.

While graduation occurs, the annual Hike It and Spike It event happens as well. Taylor said this could encourage students to engage in underage drinking so parents need to step up and monitor their kids.

“In reality we do have a problem with underage drinking as much and as hard as we try and combat it,” she said. “If we can get all the support of the parents and adults in the community, it certainly helps.”

Along with Project Graduation, the DWI Prevention Program hosts a mentorship program for high schoolers throughout the school year.

“Each year kids will come and we try and teach them and engage them to be speakers and the voice of the youth in their community,” Taylor

said.

Students have the opportunity to work under a mentor in their specific interests. “(I) encourage them to grow,” she said.

During the mentorship program, students have the opportunity to learn more about their hobbies and they also have the opportunity to travel to Santa Fe and talk with state legislators, Taylor said.

“I let them pick the topics and the only thing is I say, ‘You always have to be most respectful, knowledgeable, learn issues on both sides pro and con and be able to substantiate your information and whatever it is, you go for it,’” she said.

The students present their concerns in front of the governor, lieutenant governor and House leadership, Taylor said, which teaches students how to stand up for themselves and peers and how to have a voice.

“We’re raising some really fine young people,” she said. “If you give them a voice and an opportunity to address issues, they will.”

Annual golf tournament Race for the Zoo to to support veterans van take place Saturday

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor

The Southeast New Mexico Veterans Transportation Network shuttles veterans to and from medical appointments throughout the state and would not be possible without the help from the Elks for Vets Charity Golf Tournament.

This year’s tournament will be June 6 and the goal is raise more than $37,000, which is about 50 percent of operational funds for the SNMVTN. “Without the generous donations from this tournament, the van program wouldn’t exist,” said Ralph Brown, charity golf chairperson.

The golf tournament, which is open to the first 24 teams that register, will not just be a time to play golf, Brown said.

“We take special time out to honor out veterans,” he said.

Before the tournament starts at the New Mexico Military Institute golf course, Congressman Steve Pearce, Maj. Gen. Grizzle and Maj. Gen. Childress speak to the participants, Brown said.

This year is the seventh annual Elks for Vets spring golf tournament. All proceeds raised from the tournament will go to the Southeast New Mexico Veterans Transportation Network. Each year veterans are honored with an honor guard at the beginning of the tournament, which starts at 8 a.m. After the tournament, everyone goes to the Elks Lodge, 1720 N. Montana Ave., to have lunch and present the check to SNMVTN. Last year’s tournament raised $37,500 for the SNMVTN, which is about 50 percent of its operating costs. This year’s tournament will be June 6. honor guard presents the colors and dual taps are played, he said.

“We take maybe a half hour or 40 minutes right at the beginning honoring our veterans,” Brown said.

“Then we play golf and have a good time.”

Registration and honoring of veterans will start at 7 a.m. on June 6 and the tournament will start at 8 a.m. Awards will be given at the Elks Lodge, 1720 N.

Montana Ave., at 1 p.m.

Brown, a Vietnam War veteran, said he “pounds the streets” for fellow veterans to make sure they have everything they need to live comfortably.

Elks for Vets hosts a fall tournament in addition to the summer tournament.

The fall tournament’s money goes to Wounded Warrior.

People will be running for the warm temperatures to stay at the Spring River Race for the Zoo. The race which is in its 22nd year, will be May 9 at Spring River Park and Zoo. The race started because the Runners Club, which hosts the majority of races in Roswell, was looking to start new races to help more organizations in the city.

“One of (the organizations) that was dear to me was the zoo,” said Bob Edwards, race director and president of the Runners Club.

In the last 21 years, Edwards said the Runners Club has raised more than $40,000 for the zoo.

The funds, Edwards said, can be used for whatever needs the zoo may have throughout the year.

Edwards said he chose the zoo to be the organization to receive this race’s funs because everyone loves the zoo.

“Most of our animals are rescues, orphans, or (injured) in some way or another that they could not make it on their own,” he said. “To me it was just a worthwhile thing without making any value judgements.”

Edwards said a lot of the prices for races now are “through the roof” but the Runners Club tries to keep prices low so everyone has the chance to participate.

The price for Race for the Zoo is $20 before May 9 and $25 the day of the race.

“They get a T-shirt, they get a chance for some medals and they’re supporting great causes,” he said.

The event is a family friendly event with a 10K run, a 5K run, a 2 mile walk and a 10K competition walk to choose from, Edwards said.

“We have old kids and young kids and everybody in between,” he said.

Participants can get a registration form at the Parks and Recreation Department, 1104 W. Fourth St., or register online at active.com.

Packet pickup will be in the north parking lot of the zoo from 4-6 p.m. May 8. Late registration and packet pickup will be from 6:30-7:30 a.m. May 9 and the race will start at 8 a.m.

TurtleFEST to take place May 15

By Christina Stock Vision Editor The times of heavy metal being part of a wild and unhealthy lifestyle are over.

TurtleFEST 6.5 attracts a new kind of heavy metal fans and a new generation. Unity Center’s Bobby Garcia is excited to host Roswell’s biggest music festival on May 15 at the Unity Center again.

“We wanted to have it earlier, but we could not get bands who were up to par, so we rescheduled and have now two touring packages that are playing

DWI

that night,” Garcia said.

“I am happy how much it has grown this year, I had over 20 bands hit me up to open for this show and that’s really amazing, since the majority of them were from El Paso, Albuquerque, Lubbock and a lot of small towns in between.”

TurtleFEST started as a U.N.I.T.Y. Center show, Garcia said.

To try and make the event appealing to teenagers, Garcia said his brother Matt suggested the name “TurtleFEST” because everyone loves the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The Teen-

age Mutant Ninja Turtles, Garcia said, are often seen by others as weird aliens who don’t belong. The feeling of not belonging is something the U.N.I.T.Y. Center tries to combat by providing a welcoming environment for teenagers.

Bands performing are War of Ages from Erie, Pennsylvania, Phinehas, The Death of an Era, Mouth of the South, The Animal in Me, Like Monroe, Darkness Divided, So it Begins, Rivalry and Amy’s not Breathing.

Mike Butler from the band Mouth of the South said he enjoys playing TurtleFEST every year.

Brown said the tournament consistently fills the 24 spots for teams about three or four weeks before the tournament.

“When I first started this (the city) told me we couldn’t have a sold-out tournament in advanceand

we do,” he said.

Registration forms can be picked up at the Elks Lodge or at the NMMI Pro Shop. “(It) is a lot of money for a little town of 50,000 people,” he said. “The reason we’ve been successful is that the community has

“Our band just started for fun in 2007, but now we see it as a full time ministry with music. We are foremost missionaries before being musicians or a business,” he said. The band has become known for relatable song writing and empathetic lyricism. Mouth of the South “bleeds” music.

Tickets are available online at holdmyticket. com. Presale tickets are being sold from the local bands Rivalry, Amy’s Not Breathing and also at the door on the event day, May 15 at 5 p.m.

In the past six years, Brown said the golf tournaments have raised more than $300,000 for SNMVTN and Wounded Warrior Project and 100 percent of the money raised went to the groups.

Only 24 teams of four golfers are allowed and the cost is $75 per person or $300 for a team. Checks must be made payable to Roswell Elks Charity Golf.

The DWI Prevention Program will be putting up its first sign for the no texting and driving campaign on May 9 at 4 p.m. Taylor said the sign will be situated by the fairgrounds and will tell the story of Clayton Don Ford, a 16-year-old who was killed while texting and driving three days before Thanksgiving.

Jared and Kelsey ern New Mexico University and went on to earn a degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Science. He is currently employed as a firefighter with BLM.

The most important thing to teach students is that accidents are not accidents when a person makes the conscious decision to drink and drive or text and drive, Taylor said.

“They’re not accidents, they’re crashes,” she said.

Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I both have professional careers and are independent. We have been in a committed relationship for eight years now.

When we first met, I wasn’t looking to be in a relationship.

He pulled all the stops to get me to date him. He was attentive, complimentary, dinner dates, movies, etc. He was the first to say “I love you.” Prince Charming had nothing on him.

When he knew I had finally fallen for him, the chase was over and everything came to a

screeching halt. No more dates, no more I-love-yous. Everything he did to get me to fall in love with him stopped. The man I fell for doesn’t exist anymore.

If I ask him if he loves me, he tells me I shouldn’t be insecure and needy. I told him hearing the words mean a lot to me, but the words seem to have been deleted from his vocabulary. Any suggestions on how I can get him to understand how I need to hear it from him?

LONGING FOR ‘I LOVE YOU’ DEAR LONGING: You have already told your boyfriend what you need. Now it’s time to find out why he is unwilling to give it to you.

Then ask yourself if you want to continue like this indefinitely, because he appears to have changed considerably. Is he the kind of husband you would want for a lifetime? If not, you might be better off with someone more responsive, because this appears to be the status quo, and the

man has shown himself to be unlikely to change.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: With technology the way it is today and everyone taking photos and videos of everyone around them, are there any new rules of etiquette? I’m asking because of a couple situations I’ve been in lately.

The other day I was kayaking with some people I met online.

While I was rowing, struggling to catch up with those who were faster, breathing hard and sweating, a kayaker in front of me whom I had just met started videotaping me. I didn’t want to be videotaped, but I didn’t want to break my stride and explain.

Yesterday I was in a hot spring at a health spa, wearing a swimsuit. I looked up and a woman I didn’t know was about to take a photo of two other women. I was in the background.

Fortunately, I was able to leap out of the way, and the only part

Roswell Daily Record

of me that might have been photographed was my backside.

In both situations I was uncomfortable, but I did nothing to stop it. What is a polite way to ask someone to stop?

PHOTO-SHY IN CALIFORNIA DEAR PHOTO-SHY: It’s perfectly acceptable to say, “Please don’t do that,” or “Let me get out of range.” If the photographer has any manners, he/she will accommodate you.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: My husband never gets me anything for Mother’s Day. We have two children. He says, “You’re not my mother!” What do you think?

HURT IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR HURT: Is your husband the father of your children? If the answer is yes, I think the man you married is thoughtless, insensitive or cheap.

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND OFF, about irons: “You wrote about the problem of irons not getting hot enough to iron clothes well. I agree, but the frustrating feature is the auto shut-off! When sewing, by the time I go to press a seam, the iron has shut off, and I have to wait for it to heat up again.

There should be a way to override this feature for people who sew!”

Lillie in Chandler, Texas Lillie, it can be a hassle, especially when working on a project that requires using the iron a lot. I’m with you on this! When I’m on a sewing spree, to have to keep turning on the iron for just a quick press of a seam gets to be very, very annoying.

The good news is, there are irons available that do NOT have an automatic shut-off.

Call a fabric store or get on the Internet, and the “iron” of your dreams is waiting for you! Keep on sewing!

HHHHH Dear Heloise: I heard we can use vinegar and water to clean wood and engineered hardwood floors. But I have no idea what the recipe is for this type of cleaner. Can you please help?

Pam E., via email Pam, that’s what I’m here for. The answer is both yes and no. Some wood that you may slightly “damp” mop will do just fine with a little vinegar (half a cup or so to a mop bucket) added to water.

Many “engineered hardwood floors” are, in fact, well, not like real wood. The hint to keep in mind is to “clean” the flooring more often and prevent a big buildup of dust and dirt. Overwetting, or letting a solution sit on the flooring, is where the problem arises. As much as I love vinegar, I’m not sure it adds much to the cleaning process. A cup of 5 percent vinegar in a gallon of water is a darn weak strength.

Yes, I know, I’ve heard from “experts”: “Oh, but Heloise, it’s acid!” The idea that this negligible amount of “acid” vinegar solution would “eat away” the finish is a weak argument, in my mind. Do a Heloise test and damp-mop half of the floor with just water, half with the vinegar-and-water solution.

Result? You tell me!

Heloise

HHHHH Dear Heloise: Garbage cans stink! When I bring in my trash can after garbage pickup, I leave the lid open to allow it to air out a little. There often is a little time before I need to put another bag of trash in it, so I leave the lid open during that time.
