Proudly Serving The High Plains Since 1901
Vol. 115, No. 101 • Hereford and Deaf Smith County, Texas
WHAT'S
While not a unanimous decision, the Hereford City Commission believed it could not go wrong when it came to appointing a new member during Monday’s regular meeting. Tackling the issue as the first order of business, commissioners ultimately appointed Marcos Castro to the vacant Place 6 seat in a split vote. “Thank you for this opportunity,” Castro said after narrowly winning

the appointment. “I look forward to serving. “This is something that more people should do. It is important to do to be involved in your community. This is just another opportunity to serve.” Filling the vacancy was top priority Monday as commissioners immediately went into closed session after the meeting was officially convened. The 30-plus minute closed session included interviews with Castro and fellow applicant Rocky Bhakta, as well as more than 10
minutes of discussion before returning to open session. Commissioner Charlie Kerr nominated Bhakta for the spot, but a subsequent vote failed 2-3 – commissioner Joe Garza was absent and Place 6 was open – with only Kerr and Angie Alonzo voting in favor. Upon completion of that vote, commissioner Cathy Bunch nominated Castro, whose appointment was approved in a 3-2 vote with Bunch, Linda Cumpton and Mayor Tom Simons voting in his favor.

egan Ketch stars in “American Gothic,” premiering Wednesday on CBS.
Serial murders unravel a Boston clan in new ‘American Gothic’
Jay Bobbin Zap2it
show focuses on Boston’s prominent Hawthorne family, which has enough skeletons to require more closets to put them all in. The clan’s main concern is a serial-killing case that, in the wake of their patriarch’s death, they learn he might have been involved in ... as another relative still among them also may have been. With Steven Spielberg’s Amblin firm co-producing “American Gothic” with CBS Television Studios,
the show labels each episode with the name of a famous painting, a nod to the iconic Grant Wood work that shares the series’ title. Its acting ensemble includes Antony Starr (fresh off Cinemax’s recently ended “Banshee”), Virginia Madsen, Juliet Rylance (“The Knick”), Justin Chatwin (“Shameless”) and Megan Ketch. Seen more recently on such shows as “Jane the Virgin” and “Under the
Dome,” Ketch had a brief run as Danny Reagan’s (Donnie Wahlberg) detective partner in the third season of CBS’ “Blue Bloods.” She didn’t know of the earlier “American Gothic” series, but she notes, “I find that people also mistake it for ‘American Horror Story’ or ‘American Crime.’ They’ll say, ‘I’ve heard of that show,’ and I say, ‘No! It’s in good company, but it’s not what you’re thinking of.’ ”
Obviously, Ketch hopes that will change as “American Gothic” (created by executive producer Corinne Brinkerhoff, with whom she worked previously on the CBS show “Reckless”) plays out over the summer. She explains her character, Tessa, has “a brand-new marriage to the character Brady Ross (Elliot Knight), who has just made Detective with the Boston Police. I play a public-

school teacher, and we sort of represent the everyman. “I look at Tessa as a bright, nurturing soul who is trying desperately to keep her family together. She doesn’t necessarily uphold the path of elite wealth, but of a public servant and a community builder. That consciously or subconsciously puts her at odds with her family, who are concerned about being the most powerful pillars of society that they can be.”

“There were no specific reasons for one nomination over the other,” Kerr said. “Either of the applicants were qualified and capable of doing the job. “There was nothing that dramatically set them apart. It came down to a situation where we couldn’t have gone wrong no matter how the vote turned out.” The vacancy occurred when Place 6 Commissioner Sam Metcalf resigned his seat in April because he was relocating.

...to splashdown
BRAND/C.E. Hanna
Allison Rodriguez, 9, prepares for splashdown while trying to beat the recent heat wave and take advantage of potentially cooling opportunities at Josserand Aquatic Center.
When it comes down to it, there is not much contest when it comes to choosing between living near the beach or the windswept plains of the Texas Panhandle. After 16 years with the Hereford Independent School District, HISD superintendent Kelli Moulton has elected to move on as the Galveston Independent School District (GISD) Board of Trustees voted unanimously Friday to name Moulton as the sole finalist for its superintendent position. “I’m extremely excited that we ended up with Dr. Moulton as our lone finalist,” GISD board member Jeff Temple said in the recorded meeting. “She is going to be an excellent successor to [outgoing Larry] Nichols.” The GISD board will meet July 11 to consider formally naming Moulton superintendent for the MOULTON Nichols, whose retirement is effective Aug. 31. Moulton was named the first director of secondary curriculum at HISD in 1999 and was promoted to principal at Hereford Junior High School the following year. She became assistant superintendent in 2004 before ascending to superintendent in 2008 following Michael “Mick” Steven’s retirement. According to Moulton, the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) conducted the search on behalf of GISD. “They (TASB) decided that I would be a good fit and asked if I would be interested in applying,” Moulton said. Six finalists were interviewed out of a field of more than 75 candidates, with Moulton’s interview occurring June 16. The GISD board made its announcement the following day. PLEASE SEE HISD | 3A
Tierra Blanca ready to tee lucky 13th edition
By C.E. Hanna BRAND Staff Writer
Thirteen may be an unlucky number for some, but most decidedly not for John Pitman Golf Course, which will play host to the 13th annual Tierra Blanca Golf Classic next weekend. The tournament begins Friday and will conclude Sunday. “Every year, I think that it can’t possibly get any better, but it does,” Deaf Smith County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Sid Shaw said. The tournament, which Shaw calls the premiere event of the Panhandle, originated in 2004. According to Shaw, a small group began the initial planning stages and ultimately contacted local golfers to assist.
“It was a relatively short time to pull it off, but the tournament quickly filled up that year and has been at capacity ever since,” Shaw said. In fact, the field is only open to two new sponsored teams every year with 15-20 teams on a waiting list. The process, however, was not without some growing pains. “We tried to have automatic spots, but that was murder,” Shaw said. “We had to prioritize.” While some teams have permanent spots, they may still be lost if said team fails to attend for two consecutive years. The Rio Blanco Shootout, where assigned four-man teams play a best ball format, kicks off the tournament at 5 p.m. Friday. “There will be three winning
teams from the front nine and the back nine,” Shaw said. “Then the winners will go head-to-head in an alternate shot format on the first hole.” No one has ever won on the first hole. Saturday’s and Sunday’s field will consist of 120 two-man teams in 10 predetermined flights. “We have a 21-person committee that handles all of the flighting,” Shaw said. “They do a good job of preventing sandbagging.” Saturday rounds begin at 7:30 a.m., with registration beginning at 6:30 a.m. and pairing announcements at 7:10 a.m. Afternoon registration begins at 12:30 p.m. with announcements following at 1:10 and play continuing by 1:30. All of the fun doesn’t detract
from the Tierra Blanca Golf Classic’s true purpose, which is to raise Hereford’s visibility and bring tourist dollars into local businesses. “We’ll have 50-60 people staying in local hotels,” Shaw said. “When they’re not playing, they’ll be in local shops, and they’ll go to local restaurants.” According to Shaw, the tournament’s proceeds are split between the chamber and the Pitman Golf Course Men’s and Women’s Golf Association. “For their part, the association invests in improvements to the course, so it’s a win-win for everybody,” Shaw said. “I can tell you, this thing’s become a monster, but it’s a very good problem to have.”
