ee County officially ordered an action in lockstep with state voting regulations this past week.

At the Sept. 27 meeting of the county’s commissioners court, a resolution was approved to adopt Hart InterCivic Verity Duo voting machines with access and duo scan technology to be used in all early voting and election day polling locations.

It is a change Bee County had to make, as all Texas counties are mandated to have voting machines with paper ballot backing

by November 2022, via Senate Bill 598. The bill adds a “Paper Audit Trail Required” section to the Texas Election Code, establishing that voting systems must “use, create, or display a paper record that may be read by the voter; and is not capable of being connected to the internet or any other computer network or electronic device.”

The resolution will move to upgrade 41 voting machine units in the county, along with 16 handicap-accessible units, to allow for a verifiable paper trail in all Bee County elections. The cost of the upgrades, said at the meeting to be in the neighborhood of $242,000, has a potential reimbursement attached due to the county’s early entry into the SB 598 pilot program.

County Judge Trace Morrill, in detailing how the upgrades to the system works, explained that when an electronic vote is cast in a county election, both the voter and an elections administrator can view both the electronic ballot and paper trail copy. If there is an issue with the electronic ballot, not matching up with the paper copy, that mistake would see VOTING, P. 10A

ighting for good has always been the mindset of John Paul Gonzales.

The boxing trainer has been around the sport for a while, working with his father in Beeville for the Blessed Hands Boxing club. Now, Gonzales has brought the club back under a new title, the Bee County Young Gunz, with his youth fighters putting on a show for a cause Sept. 25.

The late September Saturday boxing card at the Bee County Expo Center

Pavilion, titled “Fighting for Knox,” saw 14 bouts between area fighters, including three Young Gunz. The card was a fundraiser for the family of Knox Longoria, a Corpus Christi 4-year-old who died in June.

“As a community, we care about Knox … that’s what (we’re here for),” Gonzales said of the card.

The card was the first of its kind in Beeville in several years, a chance for Gonzales’ troupe to make a major local impact.

A

taste for cooking cultivated in Beeville has now landed James Barrera in exclusive company.

The longtime chef and baker has finally broken through the tough competition of the Texas State Fair, recently winning the “Best Taste - Sweet” award for the 2021 event. Barrera was victorious for “The Armadillo,” a butter cookie ice cream sandwich in the shape of the titular mammal.

he Grand’s unmistakable and grandiose chandelier once again cast its glow upon a cage on the final Saturday in September with the return of amateur cagefighting after a long hiatus due to the

pandemic.

Texas Clash Bash returned to Beeville on Sept. 25 with a ninefight card at the dance hall.

It was the first MMA event in Beeville since July 2019, and the 16th overall by the Corpus Christi-based promotion since the inaugural event in Robstown in August 2015.

Amber “Vicious” Medina earned her first career victory in the main event of the night in front of an estimated crowd of nearly 300.

Medina earned a first-round TKO win in 1 minute, 43 seconds over Karyme Sepulveda, see BASH, P. 10A

Tri County Hay Show, testing campaign set for Nov. 5 T

he Livestock and Forage Committees of Bee, Goliad and Refugio counties are encouraging aging beef cattle producers to turn in a sample of their hay for analysis.

Hay samples may be turned in to any county Extension office from Oct. 1-21. The analysis will be done by the Texas A&M Forage testing lab, and the results will be handed out during the upcoming Forage Seminar on Nov. 5.

Samples should be brought in a lunch paper bag with produc-

er’s name, address, phone number and a description of the sample. Bags can be obtained at the Extension office, and a core sampler to pull samples can be checked out in the extension offices in: Bee County, 210 E. Corpus Christi Street; Goliad County, 329 West Franklin; and in Refugio County, 414 B. North Alamo St. The analysis will give producers useful information about the quality of the hay that they are feeding to livestock, and the test will help them determine what

City council awards Texas Mile $35K in HOT funds

by Thomas Leffler Senior Reporter

T

he organizers of the Texas Mile event auto racing event scheduled for Oct. 29-31 in Beeville now have the answer to their request for financial assistance from the city.

At a Sept. 28 meeting of Beeville’s city council, the event was awarded $35,000 from hotel/motel tax funds to help stage the racing event. The organizers had previously requested $50,000 from the city’s fund in July, with the request previously tabled due to finalization of the city’s 2021-22 fiscal budget.

A

continued look into using national funds was discussed by Bee County commissioners this past week, with talks ramping up on how to use awards from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.

At the commissioners court meeting Sept. 27, Pct. 2 Commissioner Dennis DeWitt asserted that ARP-related projects be put on the court’s agenda for each general session. As of Sept. 27, there is no formal plan of action between the county and ARP contractor Grantworks, with a meeting due later in the week to put wheels in motion on projects.

In total, the county will receive $6,315,781 through the act. They received half of that amount earlier this year.

One of the county’s main purposes with the funding will potentially be a “lump sum” in extra pay for county employees due to stress and extra hours worked during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A more tangible plan broached in earlier court meetings was a new building for Beeville’s Emergency Management Services, in order to house EMS equipment and COVID-19 vaccine supplies.

City Manager John Benson explained that the $35,000 given to the Texas Mile is the same amount given for the March event. The $50,000 amount would have been a “significant reduction” of the hotel/motel funds during the beginning of the city’s fiscal year, Benson said. He also pointed toward economic impact analysis that states the event brings in around $42,000 in retail sales and local tax impact. Benson says that the amount given out doesn’t have to be “dollar-fordollar” on what is recouped, but the $42,000 figure did play a role in giving out $35,000.

•tleffler@mysoutex.com•

“Looking at these, what we asked (Grantworks) to do was look at this list before we work to move forward.”

The two sides will need to discuss feasibility of any physical projects, as any ARP-related endeavors must be completed by Dec. 2024.

County Judge Trace Morrill agreed with putting the ARP-related projects on future agendas, stating his excitement to serve the county with the national funding.

“I know everybody’s put a lot of time and effort into this, and I really look forward to jumping into this,” Morrill said.

The commissioners also approved the employment of several new county workers. Henrietta Johnson was hired as a full-time administrative secretary for community affairs, at an annual salary of $27,000. William Barton was brought on as a full-time sergeant of investigation for the Bee County Sheriff ’s Office, commanding a $42,766 salary. Both Johnny Miles and Kelly Rodriguez were hired as full-time jailers at salaries of $30,116.

The court also accepted the resignation of Oscar Rodriguez, Fred Dominguez, Jesse Estrada, Sidney Hadwin, Joseph Nemec, Gaby Puente, Joseph Ramirez and John Rodriguez.

Macdonald passing brings comedic generations together

by Thomas Leffler Senior Reporter

W

ith comedy at such a crossroads, I was pleasantly surprised that all paths led to one subject this past month.

Norm Macdonald, the sly and provocative comedic superstar, died at the age of 61 this past month, leaving every comedic generation at a loss. Legendary entertainers such as Conan O’Brien and Howard Stern paid their condolences, which was nice to see. However, “every” generation also meant my fellow 1990s babies chimed in with their Norm experiences, as well as some 2000s babies.

Scrolling social media feeds in the wake of Norm’s passing was endearing, yet a bit perplexing. How come my generation, still in diapers during Norm’s “Saturday Night Live” run, has so much respect for the comedian? Aren’t these the same folks who consider 10-second TikTok videos

So, what gives? What attracted younger viewers to someone they never saw in the prime years?

I started with a dive into the now-famous “I’m Not Norm” YouTube channel, filled with clip compilations of Macdonald’s work, looking for clues.

Sure enough, a pattern came to light through the most popular videos.

Of course, the first mentioned is Norm’s classic late 1990s appearance on O’Brien’s late night show, in which a particularly spry Macdonald puts Carrot Top in a verbal casket. I even renamed my fantasy football team to “Chairmen of the BO-R-E-D” as tribute to an all-time late night

moment. Other clips of long-lauded Norm roast sessions popped up as popular fare, such as his constant haggling of Barbara Walters and O.J. Simpson.

That’s when it began to click. In today’s comedic generation, nobody “goes there” anymore.

Like other entertainment mediums, comedy has become a place where it is impossible to ruffle feathers without immediate consequences. Any hint of controversy, any (mostly invalid) reasoning to label someone “dangerous,” and executives will shy away from handing that elusive television or streaming special. Perhaps as a subconscious thumbs-down to the current “no toe-stepping” culture of comedy, my generation has sought out Norm clips as an appreciation of how things should be done.

While there is some wild Norm material I cannot print here, the man became immune to being “canceled,” a Teflon figure for us amongst a crowd of apparent evildoers. This is because the man was not only a traditional comedian, but a regular sociologist.

Every potential “went too far” bit about Simpson on “SNL” was quickly followed with Norm remarking that half of the crowd will now hate him.

The self-depreciating humor was a distraction to keep any would-be fury at bay, as was his penchant for telling long stories that turn out to be made up. Since Norm made up 10-minute bits about his dirty uncle Johnny, it stood to reason that many of his more racy bits were also falsifications.

Norm straddled the line of controversy by being himself, something my generation has gained an appreciation for in a comedy world that’s more phony than ever.

Norm didn’t aim to get ahead, just to get a laugh.

Whether it be as Turd Ferguson, Bob Dole, or just Norm Macdonald, he got just that.

He was born on March 8, 1934, in Beeville, Texas, the first of five children born to William John (“Hoppa”) Trial and Margaret Trial.

They married on February 4, 1956. Within 6 months of getting married, Paul was drafted into the Army.

In 1964, Londa gave birth to a son, Jon Paul Trial, and the three of them remained a tight unit for the rest of their lives.

OBITUARIES, from P. 7A and as soon as Jon Paul could catch a ball, they became regulars at all the baseball stadiums. Paul spent countless hours practicing with Jon Paul by hitting buckets of baseballs to him. Paul and Londa enjoyed many years of watching their son’s baseball games and track meets.

In 1982, Paul again helped his son by joining Jon Paul’s business, Cen-Tex Landscape. For the next 30 years, father and son worked together, building the small business into a successful operation that continues today.

When Londa became ill with congestive heart failure, Paul took on his biggest challenge yet: keeping the love of his life alive.

For the next two decades, Paul managed Londa’s healthcare through the many highs and lows.

He was everything to Londa, and she was everything to Paul. In 2008, Paul and Londa moved back to their hometown of Beeville, reuniting with old friends and family and joining the Garden Club, Wednesday Lunch Club

(which met on Tuesdays) and the Do-Nothing Club.

Londa passed away in August 2016 after 60 years of marriage. Paul never really recovered from the loss.

Paul is predeceased by his parents, William John (“Hoppa”) Trial and Margaret Trial of Beeville, Texas; his sister, Mary Cunningham of San Antonio, Texas; his sister-inlaw, Arline Trial of Victoria, Texas and Polly Trial of Sugar Land, Texas; and his loving and loyal wife, Londa Trial of Beeville, Texas.

Paul is survived by his son, Jon Paul Trial, and wife, Linda, of Austin, Texas; his brother, Joseph (“Joe”) Trial of Victoria, Texas; his brother, CB Trial, and wife, Kathleen, of Beeville, Texas; his sister, Judy Gonzalez, and husband, Tommy Gonzalez, of San Angelo, Texas; and numerous nieces and nephews.

ingredients, from P. 1A tested Barrera’s dish, followed by some sparkling reviews. Barrera stated that one judge remarked ‘this really is what the state fair feeling represents, right here in my hands.’”

Saying he used a “twist” in the ice cream sandwich formula with the cookie butter addition, the dish salutes Texas with the armadillo inspiration. To formulate the armadillo shape, Barrera heats up an armadillo-shape ready branding iron, pats it the iron down with a towel, then submerges it into the butter batter. The success of the dish, Barrera states, is due to his exact sweet science.

“The whole thing about making this thing is that, people think that cooking and baking isn’t chemistry ... everything has to be perfect. (One) missing ingredient (messes it up).”

Barrera, who has worked the state fair since 1997, had previously won a “most creative” state fair award in 2005 for his “Viva Las Vegas” fried ice cream formed in the shape of an electric guitar.

But, he had yet to break through in a “best tasting” category. The same result looked to be the case in 2021 after chef Greg Parish won “Best Taste - Savory” as well as the creativity honor for his deep-fried seafood gumbo balls.

“I thought I had more of a better chance winning most creative than tasting,” Barrera said. “The other competitors were pretty experienced as well. When they said the same guy won savory, also won most creative for his (gumbo dish), I thought I lost hope there.

Then they said the winner of the ‘Best Taste - Sweet’ in 2021 is The Armadillo. And I was waiting to hear my name, so it took me a couple seconds to realize (it was my dish).”

On top of the award, Barrera’s stand at the Dallas fair will be highlighted in the event’s official guided tour map. The extra attention adds more stress to Barrera’s craziest time of year.

“Doing the fair is like (you’re on) train tracks, (and) there’s a freight train up your (butt). If you slow down for a bit, you’re going to get run over.”

His interest in the state fair began after crafting his culinary resume in the Dallas restaurant scene. Before getting to Dallas, however, he grew up in Beeville.

On pace to graduate A.C. Jones High School, Barrera dropped out to pursue a military career, later returning to receive his GED. After a short military stint, Barerra became a truck driver for a while, stating “that’s what (he) wanted to be” at the time.

“I was so young and dumb, I said ‘nah’ (to restaurant work), I just want to be a truck driver.”

Finally getting his feet wet into the culinary business, Barrera’s travels took him to several Dallas-area locations, including working in fine dining at the city’s Reunion Tower landmark. While working in the area, he continued to pine for the fair, talking to as many people as he could to form connections to a Texas mainstay.

He stated he knew several Dallas councilmen during this time, as well as the city’s mayor pro tem, giving him the boost he needed to receive a stand in 1997.

Once he arrived in his new abode, things became hectic right away serving thousands of hungry travelers.

“I didn’t know what to expect ... they give you a stand, but they don’t tell you how to go about it ... you have to learn everything yourself.”

One item to master was time and personnel management, especially in an era with less available communication technology.

For the first few years, Barrera had to install a wired phone system in his stand to keep abreast of fair happenings.

“It was tough back then. I didn’t know how many people I needed to have staffed ... and the last day is always the busiest. It was only

me and two other friends for mobs and mobs of people just bombarding us.”

The high volume led to several mishaps, including pieces of glass becoming lodged in the stand’s ice chest.

“I just laughed,” Barrera said on his first fair experience. “I don’t let it get to me, you know?

That’s the way you have to be out there. It’s almost a different animal ... I’m going to have 100 people on both sides of my stand (this year).”

Barrera is prepared for the month-long event with both staff and supply. On the day before the fair, he purchased 72 boxes of Oreo cookies with 130 cookies in each box. With the demand of the fair, he says, these boxes will only last a maximum of two days, requiring near-daily supply runs.

Extra supplies and staff will be needed for several key days of the fair. The Columbus Day holiday brings in many tourists, Barrera states, as does the annual “Red River Shootout” football game between Oklahoma and Texas at the Cotton Bowl inside the fairgrounds.

For the big football matchup, Barrera’s loyalty lies with who is giving him the most business, even if that isn’t the Longhorns.

“People come for the game, and then (stay) after. I always want Oklahoma to win, because then if Oklahoma loses, they go back. If they win, they stay and party all night. I sell tons and tons of beer.”

As excited as ever for his 24th fair, Barrera is ready for the extra spotlight that comes with The Armadillo’s success.

“To do the fair, you have to have a passion for it, which I definitely do. That’s my habitat. I’m happiest when I’m at the fair. I don’t know why, it’s torture mentally and physically ... it’s like running a marathon, it’s a (rewarding) pain.”

O’Fest to bring beer, music, fun

by Thomas Leffler Senior Reporter

T

hree Beeville businesses have put their brainpower into a new fall celebration.

The first Beeville O’Fest will take place Saturday, Oct. 16, from 3-11 p.m., held on the corner of North Madison Avenue and West Bowie Street. The open lot will be transformed into an Oktober Fest setting thanks to the area’s occupants: K&E Seafood Lounge, Hattie & Hazel’s Catering and La Linea Wine Bar. O’Fest will fill the fall event slot left by Beeville’s annual Western Week, which was put on hold for 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A committee led by the three businesses, plus representatives from L&F Distribution, Coastal Bend Distillery and the Beeville Chamber of Commerce, have been meeting since September to fill the fun void. “(We’re) all fairly new; nobody’s been around more than several years ... so it’s been kind of a collective thought, that we would have an Oktober Fest,” said La Linea Wine Bar’s Neil Connors. “Oktober Fest seemed a little time-worn and routine, so we thought, let’s put a little Irish twist in it, call it O’Fest.”

Although the naming comes from Connors’ Irish background, the name does not mean the event is Irish in nature. All customs and heritages are welcome for O’Fest, ready to indulge in what the businesses have to offer.

All three locations (K&E, Hattie & Hazel’s, La Linea) will be serving food and beverages throughout the day. A purchase of a $25 ticket for O’Fest comes with three food items (one from each location), three beverages (one from each location), and a souvenir O’Fest cup displaying the event title. The food and excitement will be held in the back lot of the locales, home to nefarious potholes the committee looks to fix.

“It looks like the planet Mars right now, but we’re gonna grade that parking lot ... so hopefully you’re not likely to break an ankle on your way home,” Connors said.

Standing in smoother territory, the guests of O’Fest will be treated to three bands, with two coming out of the Corpus Christi area. The day kicks off with Alex and The Space Cadets at 3 p.m., followed by Reverend Matt and Lady Kat at 5:30 and The Roaches at 8:30.

“When we opened the wine bar ... we went to an open mic (in Corpus), made some acquaintances; those are people that have been historically playing at our place the first couple months.”

Tickets are available at the Beeville Chamber of Commerce, IBC Bank in Beeville, K&E Seafood Lounge, Hattie & Hazel’s Catering and La Linea Wine Bar. For more information about the Oct. 16 event, search for “Beeville O’Fest” on Facebook.

knockout, from P. 1a Gonzales said. “Beeville hasn’t had a show in years, so it was time to have one here.”

Since rebooting the Bee County boxing program, the Young Gunz have traveled across the state to compete in Laredo, Corpus Christi, Victoria, Houston, San Antonio, Robstown and Kingsville.

Three of Gonzales’ pupils took to the ring at Fighting for Knox. Senior male novice division competitor Jacob Maldonado took on Robert Garcia in a 201-plus pound threeround exhibition. Also competing in the threeround bouts were intermediate female novice division fighter Mariah Camacho and intermediate male novice division fighter Teddy Cain.

A raucous crowd of parents, club supporters and other locals came out to cheer on the fighters.

“People have been supportive big time, so now it’s time for them to take a seat and see the hard work they put in,” Gonzales said.

With three Young

Gunz taking part in the card, Gonzales is hoping to expand his club’s roster for future Fighting for Knox installments.

“I expect it even bigger next year … this year, we had (14) bouts, next year we’ll have 25. I’m looking to get seven or eight of my guys (on the card).”

who fell to 0-2 in her career.

Referee Joe Solis’ decision to stop the fight on strikes that early was roundly booed by the crowd as Medina celebrated her first career victory after three straight losses to start her amateur career.

Five of the night’s nine bouts were TKOs, including the co-main event between heavyweights David Puente and Jose Macias Jr. Puente, a San Antonio native making his MMA debut, scored the TKO over Macias at the 1:58 mark of the second round when referee Frank Collazo stopped the fight on strikes.

It was a slugfest between the two heavyweights with both landing a bevy of blows, including several vicious knees to the chest.

Puente opened the second round by delivering a running kick to Macias’ chest as both came out of their corners to start the round. The move drew the loudest reaction of the night from onlookers.

Macias, fighting out of Austin, fell to 1-3 in his career.

During the first seven fights, the fighter out of the red corner won six times with Kingsville’s Robert Silguero being the lone winner out of the blue corner.

Silguero, making his MMA debut, beat Cody Ortiz by TKO on strikes in 55 seconds in the fifth bout of the night.

In the seventh bout, Seguin’s Sean Terry beat the fighter with the best record coming into the event, San Antonio-based Damian Alfaro, who was 5-1 entering the event.

Terry earned a second-round TKO over Alfaro with Solis stopping the fight on strikes at the 1:12 mark of the second round.

Terry upped his mark to 3-1 with the win.

Alfaro hadn’t fought since 2017, but was the winner of five straight coming

into the fight. It was his first loss since his debut fight in 2013.

Ned Johnson opened the card with a first-round submission victory over Ricardo Gutierrez to go to 2-0 in his career. Gutierrez (0-2) tapped out to a rear-naked choke at the 1:40 mark of the first round.

The winners of the next three fights after that all scored their first career wins.

Marcello Reyes won his debut over Edward Romero by submission with a rear-naked choke at the 1:29 mark of the second round.

Lavonte Montgomery then scored a win in his debut in the only fight that went to the judges’ scorecards. Montgomery won a unanimous decision over Jesus Castillo, who was also making his debut.

Montgomery was the winner in all three rounds on two of the scorecards, and won two of three rounds on the other judge’s card.

In the fourth bout, Yoakum native Juan Gonzalez earned a TKO victory to stop a three-fight losing streak to begin his career.

He beat Jerrick Warden (1-6) on strikes at the 1:45 mark in the opening round.

In the sixth bout of the night, Luis Rodriguez scored a win in his debut when Michael Bosco (0-2) tapped out to an armbar at the 2:22 mark of the first round.

During the first of three intermissions held throughout the night, Texas Clash Bash promoter Manuel Mendez presented a $1,500 check to Beeville Police Department Assistant Chief Richard Cantu.

Mendez has staged five Texas Clash Bash events in Beeville since 2015 with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Beeville Police Department each time.

voting, from P. 1a be corrected before submitting the paper trail copy into a second voting scanner.

“I feel much more comfortable knowing that when you vote, that the voting system has this paper ballot component ... where we can actually print it out, have a piece of paper where we see, there’s a vote,” Morrill said.

Morrill’s assessment was shared

by Jimmy Hunt, one of several public commenters discussing his concern over the voting machine resolution.

“I’ve been watching all of this,” Hunt, a Tynan resident, said. “The human mind when you go to vote, you push the button ... you don’t know if it really did what you want to do. If we can satisfy our minds, then we let our guard down. If we get a paper printed out saying that we voted for (who we voted for), we did that thing, we’re fine with it.”

Hunt was preceded in comment

by Austin Brown, who had previously put in open records requests for prior election records with the county. He said that the county had given back several records, but not all of them. Still, he was appreciative of what has been received thus far.

“I sincerely thank you this morning for your diligence in delivering a good-faith effort to fulfill the re-

quest.”

Brown’s request was also broached independently by Laura Pressley, Ph.D., founder of the True Texas Elections organization.

Pressley commented that she found several mistakes with election protocol paging through given files, including a lack of precinct-based data for the November 2020 elections.

“We wanted you to see this ... I want you really to consider and ask some questions about this before you proceed with this vote.”

Weighing Pressley’s sentiment, the court decided to unanimously approve the resolution, pointing to the new state requirement to have machines with paper trails.

“The security of our voting in this nation comes down to individuals ... who we have to place trust in to make decisions, make difficult decisions to lead us through that process and to be our watchdogs,” Morrill said.

The judge also commended the public speakers for their contributions, even if the opinion was dissenting.

“We’re glad you’re here, keep coming back.”

A prior topic Prior to the Sept. 27 vote, discussion about changes to the county’s

voting system was a topic of conversation at the Sept. 13 meeting of the commissioners.

Pct. 2 Commissioner Dennis DeWitt, who served as the figurehead at the meeting in the stead of Morrill, made it clear then that the county would enter the pilot program and would be able to have costs reimbursed by the state due to early admission.

“We’re trying to get ahead of the game ... so that the expense we incur will not come out of yours and my pocket ... if you don’t get in early, you don’t get reimbursed,” he said.

Later in the meeting, he also called for an end to harassment of county officials, specifically those in the elections administration office, over voting regulations.

“Elections are structured and regulated under the constant direction and oversight of the Texas secretary of state .... the decisions of our election administrators strictly follow the Texas secretary of state rules and guidelines. This court will not tolerate berating of our elections administrator. If you have comment or complaint, contact a member of commissioners court,” DeWitt said.

ALL HAIL THE KING

Keegan, of Westmoreland

by Kevin J. Keller Editor

A

bout an hour before kickoff of SkidmoreTynan’s home football game against Monte Alto, Keegan Westmoreland reigned over the school’s homecoming festivities as the new king.

The king then was the star of the first big play of the night for the Bobcats in their 38-0 drubbing of the Blue Devils at Bobcat Stadium.

Westmoreland got the scoring started for the Bobcats, returning a blocked punt 21 yards for a touchdown just over 4 1/2 minutes into the contest.

“It was pretty exciting,” Westmoreland said after the win, which moved the Bobcats to 4-1 overall and 1-1 in District 16-3A Division II play.

“We had been working on that play all week. We knew how they were going to line up and we were just ready to go at them.”

The play came at the end of Monte Alto’s first offensive series, and it came as no surprise to head coach Stephen Silva.

“We kind of said, ‘That thing is going to open wide,’ just because of the way they block it,” Silva said.

“I knew they had one guy to block and he had to take his pick and the other guy was probably going to come free. One guy blocked it and the other scooped it up.”

Monte Alto’s blocker – freshman Drago Hernandez – chose to try to block Westmoreland, leaving Walker Widner with a free run at punter Angel Zamora.

Zamora’s punt ricocheted off Widner’s chest, bounding back to the 21, where Westmoreland scooped it up and took off toward the north end zone for a touch-

down.

“We talk about it all the time, that special teams are not a play off,” Silva said. “We may sub people here and there to get a couple of kids some rest, but for the guys who are on the field, it’s not a play off. It’s opportunity to make a big play.

“A blocked punt, a punt return, those are big time momentum swings a lot of the times, so we try to emphasize that.”

The big play helped ignite a Bobcat squad that had entered the game licking its wounds after last week’s setback in Banquete.

Skidmore responded to their poor performance in the district opener by pitching a shutout and

racking up more than 400 yards of total offense.

“It was pretty big after last week in Banquete,” Westmoreland said. “... This week, we buckled down and worked on our offense, and I think it showed.”

Silva said the response displayed the character of his squad.

“To pick up and dust off, and show the character to come back and play well, is big,” the coach quipped. “Hopefully that momentum will carry us into our last four games of the year.”

The Bobcat offense racked up 323 rushing yards and 92 passing yards in the win.

Joe Guerra had 96 yards on 11 carries and scored both of the team’s second-half touchdowns on runs of 1 and 37 yards, respectively.

Michael Menchaca racked up 89 yards on 12 carries and scored the team’s only TD of the second

Mann also went 5 of 7 through the air for 92 yards, including a 42-yard TD strike to Dallan Cheek that came 2 1/2 minutes after Westmoreland’s scoop-andscore.

As of Oct. 1, the Cougars sit in third place in the region standings behind an unbeaten Tyler squad a one-loss Angelina squad, the two teams that bested them to start region play in early September.

The Cougars – after

matches with Western Texas on Oct. 2 and Trinity Valley Oct. 6 – are slated to face Tyler in Beeville Oct. 9 before traveling to Lufkin to face Angelina four days later.

Giving multiplied with Operation Christmas Child

by Laura Campbell News Editor

S

ome organizations in the area are getting a jump start on the holiday season.

Beeville churches Kingsway and New Life are collecting supplies and goodies for children in need through Samaritan’s Purse’s annual ministry Operation Christmas Child.

Participants transform empty shoeboxes into gifts of hope by filling them with fun toys as well as other things such as hygiene items. Operation Christmas Child will deliver the giftfilled shoeboxes to children in need around the world.

Jesse Berthold, pastor of New Life Church, which has sister

churches in Central America, says that visiting Costa Rica and seeing the kids there not getting anything for Christmas is what prompted his involvement in Operation Christmas Child this year.

“People don’t realize that kids in those areas don’t really get hardly anything. They just don’t have the money,” he said.

Helping him to choose this ministry in particular was knowing the credibility of Samaritan’s Purse and the work Franklin Graham, president of the organization, is doing.

“I thought this was a way the whole church could get involved if they want to. We bought shoe boxes, but (individuals participating) have to

buy a label (about $10), which provides tracking so you can see where the boxes go. The label cost helps pay for the box to get where it’s going.”

According to Samaritan’s Purse, since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has collected and delivered more than 186 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children in more than 160 countries and territories.

New Life is participating in the annual ministry within their church, due to pre-purchasing of the boxes to be filled, but anyone wanting to participate can contact Christina Segovia with Kingsway Church, the main hub for a multi-county area, at 361-542-1771.

“We have been a drop off

location for five years,” says Segovia with Kingsway. “We also have boxes available for those interested in participating and are in need of boxes.”

National Collection Week is Nov. 15-22. Drop off times for the boxes at Kingsway Church, located at 100 Jose Ramos Lane FM 351 are as follows: Nov. 15: noon to 5 p.m.

Nov. 16: noon to 5 p.m.

Nov. 17: noon to 5 p.m.

Nov. 18: noon to 5 p.m.

Nov. 19: noon to 6 p.m.

Nov. 20: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Nov. 21: 2-5 p.m.

Nov. 22: 10 a.m. to noon.

Participants can also donate $9 per shoebox gift online through “Follow Your Box” and receive a tracking label to

Sermon of the week

Matthew 7:7 In the letter to the church of Laodicea, we read, “Behold I stand at the door and knock.”

The image is there employed to set forth the tenderness and patience of the exalted Christ, who condescends to sue for entrance into every human heart, and comes in with His hands full of blessing. As time goes on in the lives of the Christian, we have halted communication with God. Could it be that we have received what we asked for? Could it be an attitude of resignation and apathy? Could it be laziness?

Whatever our reasoning is of refusing to pray, we are encouraged to pray without ceasing.

Ask, seek and knock are diverse aspects of the one exhortation to prayerfulness. And that may perhaps exhaust their meaning. To ask is obviously to apply to a person who can

The necessity of our knocking

By Rev. Eric R. Tarver Pastor, Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church

discover its destination. Those who prefer the convenience of online shopping can browse samaritanspurse.org/buildonline to select gifts matched to a child’s specific age and gender, then finish packing the virtual shoebox by adding a photo and personal note of encouragement. Boxes built online go to hard-to-reach countries.

“Here’s the bigger thing behind (the ministry),” said Berthold. “This is one of the greater tools that they have in taking the gospel into a family. It opens a door to them.

So I spend $30 on a few boxes and maybe a whole family gets saved ... that’s what it’s all about.”

give, and that is prayer. To seek is not quite the same thing but rather expresses the idea of effort, the personal effort which should accompany and will accompany all real prayer.

And to knock possibly adds to the conception of prayer and of effort, the idea, as common to both of them, of a certain persistence and continuity born of sincerity.

Knocking is suggestive that someone is on the other side to answer. Knocking is also continuous as our precious Lord desires us to trust and call upon Him. Eternal life is a gift, but the building of a Christian character is the result of patient, continuous, well directed efforts to the appropriation and employment of the gift that we have received. Daily living for the Lord and with the Lord is vital to the strength and stability of the Christian. Enter daily with the excitement of His presence and knock with necessity through prayer.

Whether a need for food or a need to give, this minipantry can help nourish our neighborhoods. Take what you need or give what you can. For more information, call Rev. Mossler at First Christian Church at 361-3583227.

Habitat now accepting applications for third home build B

ee County Habitat for Humanity has announced that they will be accepting applications until Nov. 1 for a family who would like to partner with them. The application is for a new home build for the selected family on one of the lots the nonprofit organizations owns. They have built two homes so far, have helped other families with “A Brush with Kindness”, minor exterior fix-up projects and are financially

able to now select a family for our third build.

The Family Selection and Family Support Committee will review all applications submitted and make a nomination family to the board for approval.

A partnership family must be willing to work with BCHFH after selection, fall into the income guidelines, put in 350 sweat equity hours after selection and throughout the construction phase

while supervised by the Site Selection and Site Construction Committee and be able to make mortgage payments on a no interest loan (normally a 20-year secured loan with BCHFH).

After applications are completed there will be an interview, and selected family will be offered a financial management course. The family will work side by side with volunteers throughout construction helping to make this a valued possession

for their future. BCHFH operates on the premise of giving families “a hand up in home ownership.”

Applications can be picked up at First United Methodist Welcome Center, First Presbyterian Church Office, the Joe Barnhart Bee County Library, or by calling 361-362-3443. Hours the churches are open can be obtained by calling the church.
