Annual Reader’s Choice voting begins

OF resident chases crooks, flees gun fire By Landan Kuhlmann landan@theleadernews.com

A natural human response to seeing someone in need is the desire to spring into action. But one attempted act of help nearly turned deadly for one local resident last week. Per the Harris County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office, an Oak Forest resident saw two suspects allegedly breaking into his neighbor’s vehicle. After the suspects, now

identified as Ryan Garza, 23, and his brother Johnathon, 18, saw they were being recorded, they allegedly attempted to leave the scene. But initially unbeknownst to them, the suspects had a tail – the resident himself. As it turned out, the resident had followed the suspects in his own vehicle equipped with a Go Pro camera. According to the Precinct 1 Constable’s Office, the suspects alSee Gunfire P. 2A

In 2012, voters approved a nearly $2 billion bond which set the tone for renovations and upgrades across HISD -- and six years later, one of our local schools is celebrating the final benefits of its passing as the school commemorates a milestone years in the making. Last March, Scarborough High School broke ground on upgrades approved under that 2012 bond pro-

gram, officially accepting $12.6 million for improvements to existing facilities to bring the campus into the modern era, and throngs were set to gather Thursday afternoon for the official unveiling of completed renovations. “We have a future generation of Spartans that are going to be proud to call this their home,” HISD Area Superintendent Steven Gutierrez said at the 2017 groundbreaking. As evidenced by numerous state-of-the-art remodels, renovations and nuances,

that message rang through loud and clear. Among upgrades are a new 13,000 square-foot JROTC building – with additional band lockers, administrative offices and additional dressing rooms – serving both JROTC and the band. Several classrooms received facelifts or were converted, while technology upgrades, improvements to athletics fields and a tennis court accompany the new secure welcome

When lifelong educator Nell Baham started teaching in the late 1950s, pantyhose was a requirement and your jacket had to be the same color as your bottoms. An employee of HISD for more than 40 years, she later moved on to the University of Houston’s education school where she mentored countless teachers until she retired in December. As she says, “It was time.” But she’s still at it - as a volunteer. Currently Baham is at Oak Forest Elementary reading Charlotte’s Web to first graders.

There’s an award named for her at Sinclair, called the Nell Baham Achievement Award, which was established in 1999, and has been awarded each year since to a fifth grader who receives money, both from Baham and the Sinclair PTA. Baham was an elementary school

teacher at Durkee Elementary for 10 years and Whittier Elementary for 10 years in between her time at Sinclair. After Sinclair, she also taught at St. Ambrose Catholic School for free when they had a sudden teacher vacancy. She said she likes the elementary school age because of the opportunity to engage the students. Baham has taught the children of her former pupils and treasures the bonds she’s been able to create. “If you make a positive impression, they never forget you,” said Baham. For a time, Baham served as a Teacher Induction Specialist for HISD. At the University of Houston, Baham taught the last course that teachers See Teacher P. 10A

legedly halted their attempted getaway vehicle in the 900 block of Wakefield and exited the vehicle, retrieved firearms from their waistbands and opened fire in the resident’s direction. Thankfully, the resident was able to avoid the gunfire, and fled the scene with no reported injuries. And while the sentiments may have been noble, Precinct 1 Constable Alan Rosen said

he typically cautions against pursuit, instead advising discreet information gathering and calling law enforcement. “White it worked out this time, I don’t recommend citizens chasing after suspects of crimes, and he could’ve been killed,” he said. “I’m glad nobody was hurt, but I don’t recommend residents doing that. Property isn’t worth a human life.”

Long and dusty trail leads back to Houston

hortly after the Houston Rockets won their second straight NBA championship, a journalism student named Zach became a contributing writer for the North Freeway Leader. That was me; nearly 23 years ago my very first professional “byline” article was in this newspaper. It has been a proverbial and literal long and winding path through four states to get back home. I left Texas in 2000 and returned in 2015. With a short stint as an evacuee of sorts in Oklahoma earlier this year, I’m back again to take part in the exciting resurgence of community journalism on the north side of my hometown. Thanks to a typo, I was listed as a “contributing editor” by my third and final article. Perhaps a bit of foreshadowing, but I do relish this chance to continue the vision of Jonathan McElvy and Terry Burge before him, to make The Leader a strong and active voice for the residents and shopkeepers of the White Oak Bayou “valley.” I’ll be bringing nearly a quarter century of experience to this newspaper – and we already have talent in spades. Having stepped away for a bit, I have many ideas to share from my various travels. Being born and raised here, it won’t take me long to get re-acquainted with home.

We have aspirations to bring more in-depth coverage, to answer some of the tough questions our readers want answered. All we ask is that you, our readers, keep us informed: Email us, call, send a message on social media. We’ll do what we can to get those answers. And we’ll continue to entertain. I intend to see Squirrel Nut Zippers at the Heights Theater (and hopefully they bring back Marc Broussard soon). Remember, I’ve been in small town USA for these last many years, so it’s time to get my city on. The Leader is already my guide to Heights area culture, food and nightlife. Upon returning to Houston in 2015, I met my wonderful fiancée from my northside neighborhood around Aldine. We were at home with her homebound 78-year-old mother, two of our dogs and six foster dogs when the hurricane hit last year.

We were unable to evacuate and simply watched Greens Bayou rise three feet in the yard and nearly a foot into the lower portions of our home. And yes I know, we had it easy. Like everyone else impacted by last year’s events, we’re still dealing with it every day. I wasn’t working in journalism when the hurricane hit. That was a blessing. I had too much on my plate at home to stop and take pictures. (Except for one of a freshwater eel “walking” across Aldine-Westfield Road. Had to be there.) But it did inspire me to get back into the news game after a two-year hiatus. I have four children and my oldest boy lives in Oklahoma. I happened upon an opportunity to jump back into journalism while on a visit to him last year. The Durant (Okla.) Democrat had recently changed hands and absorbed a nearby weekly publication. I took over as editor of the weekly while also contributing news and photos to the Democrat. It was good for me to have work and see my boy. (He’s 21 and a manager at a nationwide pharmacy store.) But my heart and fiancée are both in Houston. It feels right to continue our storm recovery at home. I have deep roots in this city and plenty of relatives here, including

U.S. Ambassador William J. Crowe, Jr., during a discussion on Northern Ireland. Replied the ambassador: “You’ve asked the wrong man that question. I’m from Oklahoma. We’ve been trying to give Texas back to Mexico for a hundred years.” We, in turn, ask the question: “Why wasn’t there a back door to the Alamo?” Answer: “There was one. That’s why there’s an Oklahoma.” “I’d rather be a fencepost in Texas, than the king of Tennessee.” -- Chris Wall, Texas Singer-Songwriter-Austin. We’re not in Kansas anymore, so we have: Take the wand. Tap it to your cowboy hat one time. Dance the twostep around the room twice. And then tap your cowboy boot heels together, and say, “There’s no place like Texas. There’s no place like Texas…” “The Texan turned out to be good-natured, generous and likable. In three days no one could stand him.”Joseph Heller, Catch 22 “I like it here in Austin. Anybody got a room?” -- Keith Richards “For Texas is where the modern conservative theory of budgeting — the belief that you should never raise taxes under any circumstances, that you can always balance the budget by cutting wasteful spending — has been implemented most completely. If the theory can’t make it there, it can’t make it anywhere.” Syndicated columnist Paul Krugman George W. Bush on his years in West Texas: “Those were comfortable, carefree years. The word I’d use now is idyllic. On Friday nights, we cheered on the Bulldogs of Midland High. On Sunday mornings, we went to church. Nobody locked their doors. Years later, when I would speak about the American Dream, it was Midland I had in mind.” Who can top Texan George W. in memorable quotes? “You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.” Remarks in Townsend, Tenn., Feb. 21, 2001. “One of the great things about books is sometimes there are some fantastic pictures.” Jan. 3, 2000. “Rarely is the question asked ... is our children learning?” Campaign speech, Jan. 11, 2000. “They want the federal government controlling Social Security, like it’s some kind of federal program.” Speech at campaign stop, Nov. 2, 2000. But just to show W. has a sense of humor. At the unveiling of his National Portrait, Dec. 19, 2008: “I sus-

people like Joyce Boatright and the late John Balione. I was editor of the college paper and worked with lifelong friend and fellow budding journalist Clarisa Carroll, who has called Houston home her entire life. College journalism led to an internship with the Associated Press, thanks to my involvement with the Native American Journalists Association. And while that may seem a far-flung connection to anything going on in northwest Houston, you’d be surprised: The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe has a job placement office at Dacoma and US 290. I’ve had some great mentors and publishers along the way. Ernie Murray in Lufkin (now with the US Forest Service), Stan Stamper at the Hugo (Okla.) News, the staff at Little Dixie Community Action Agency in Hugo, Judy Allen and Jerry Tims at Choctaw Nation, and my friends Larry Miller, Michael Clift and Matt Swearengin in Durant, Okla. I’m here to help Jonathan and the rest of us here at The Leader make history – one moment, one neighborhood at a time – by being a voice for our corner of Houston. You can help, too, by participating in community events, shopping local – and of course, continuing your much-appreciated role as our loyal readers.

A quote of many colors “You may all go to hell and I’ll go to Texas.” Davy Crockett said this after losing his Tennessee bid for re-election to the U.S. Congress. Also: “Make sure you’re right, then go ahead.” He wrote to his family back in Tennessee: “I must say as to what I have seen of Texas it is the garden spot of the world. The best land and the best prospects for health I ever saw, and I do believe it is a fortune to any man to come here. There is a world of country here to settle.” Then he went and got killed. Yes, it’s time to take another look at what people have been saying about Texas and what we have been saying about ourselves, warts and all. Mary Lasswell, who grew up in Brownsville and wrote “I’ll Take Texas,” said: “I am forced to conclude that God made Texas on his day off, for pure entertainment, just to prove that all that diversity could be crammed into one section of earth by a really top hand.” “Around company headquarters in Bentonville, Ark., an hour’s plane ride from Dallas, when anybody asks, ‘Why are there so many WalMarts in Texas?’ the answer they get is ‘Because it’s big’.” -- The New York Times, Aug. 20, 2003. “Texas is called The Lone Star State because the only good thing to come out of it is Beyonce.” -- Comedian and native Texan Zack Wintin. Any soldier who “shall commit any waste or spoil, either in walks of tree, parks, warrens, fish ponds, houses and gardens, enclosures, cornfields” will be court martialed. – Order to soldiers of the Republic of Texas. Does that also apply to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers? Q: Did you hear about the Texas Longhorns water polo team? A: They had to cancel their season after the horses all drowned in the first game. Conrad Hilton bought his very first hotel in Cisco. He said: “There’s a vastness here and I believe that the people who are born here breathe that vastness into their soul. They dream big dreams and think big thoughts, because there is nothing to hem them in.” Hilton also said: “At Lubbock I found that Texas had no use for an imported French chef.” Larry McMurtry wrote: “Only a rank degenerate would drive 1,500 miles across Texas without eating a chicken fried steak.” “In Texas, we do not hold high expectations for the [governor’s] office; it’s mostly been occupied by crooks, dorks and the comatose.” -- Molly Ivins We always have fun with Okies, because they have such great neighbors to the south who provide OU with most of their football players. This from July 14, 1996: “How would you feel if Mexico took back Texas?” a British business leader in London asked

two of the four kids who are down in the Clear Lake area. I even had a great-uncle named Moss who lived somewhere in or near Oak Forest and my mom’s family had their first Northside home on Castor Drive. I was born here, grew up in Spring Branch and all over the Northside, mainly the Greenspoint and Aldine areas. I watched Alicia knock down our trees on my 10th birthday; we lost a house on Soren Lane to Allison; I drove down from Oklahoma to get my kids out of Ike’s storm surge zone. But it’s all the joys in between which define us: Trips to the Dome-slash-NRG for the rodeo… Waiting in line for that last Prince’s hamburger back in ’91 before their comeback… Riding the Goodyear Blimp thanks to Mom putting an ad in the paper… Three championship parades (so far). My grandmother used to work at the Greensheet when it was on Allen Parkway. I’m third generation journalist thanks to her. Mom worked at the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung around the time I was born, before we came to Houston and she discovered new talents and skills in the freight forwarding business. I have many people who deserve some credit for getting me to this opportunity with The Leader. It all started at Lone Star College, with

pected there would be a goodsize crowd once the word got out about my hanging.” Finally, these observations from comedian Jeff Foxworthy: If someone in a Lowe’s store offers you assistance, and they don’t work there, you may live in Texas. If you’ve had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you may live in Texas. If you measure distance in hours, you may live in Texas. If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you may live in Texas. If you carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them, you may live in Texas. If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph -- you’re going 80 and everybody’s passing you, you may live in Texas. Ashby may be quoted at ashby2@comcast.net

Dear Editor: Lynn Ashby’s Apr. 21 jeremiad about “ultra-conservative” media was certainly rich: Talk about a frog calling somebody ugly. At least Sinclair Broadcast Group was forthright in directing its news anchors, its employees, to read on-air a statement explaining coverage policy -- transparency in the spotlight. Lynn’s leftist mainstream media inadvertently revealed its surreptitious mission after the 2000 election when Christiane Amanpour was taped scolding a “journalist” convention, irately asking how they possibly could have allowed George W. Bush to have been elected president. The reporter’s job, Christiane, is not to allow or disallow anything. It is to excavate and present information as completely and objectively as possible with attribution. But observe how Houston’s monopoly daily paper does not run any positive news reportage about President Trump or the GOP; its systemic bias consistently concocts always the most negative slant. As for mainstream media personnel’s criticism of Sinclair’s “robot” policy presentation, they’ve perhaps not heard the radio montages wherein anchors/reporters from numerous Democratic Party organs (NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC etc.) all employ miraculously identical verbiage in hit pieces against some Republican. Jeepers, Wally, they’re not even working for the same company, reading a management memo -- but they all do suffer from the same debilitating ideological infection. J. Reynolds

GOMO officially files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Dear Editor: Agreed. Monies should be returned, but not

much hope of that happening with a chapter 11, reorganization bankruptcy filing. The money will transfer (what’s left of it) to a reorganized group and amount collected going forward will probably be reduced (considerably, I hope) and business will be as usual. No support for the neighbors - only the lawyers involved. The neighborhood had no say in the decision to file for bankruptcy. Handled very poorly. Trish Mehrkam Dear Editor: Good riddance to GOMO. This is what you get when you allow neighbors suing other neighbors with other people’s money. GOMO lost me when they allowed its own board member to build a “illegal stairway as far as city of Houston is concerned” to the member’s 3rd story home. NOMO GOMO indeed, you won’t be missed. Jasper X Dear Editor: I think most want the transfer fee lowered significantly. Too much is being collected. Originally it was collected to protect deed restrictions, but when they ended up with so much money and no one to sue, they amended the bylaws as adopted by the board of directors on November 5, 2002, article 7, 7.05 to say they could spend monies on the neighborhood. It was not originally collected for that purpose and GOMO amended the bylaws to be able to spend it on the neighborhood as they saw fit. There was a campaign at that time to reduce the amount collected, but GOMO ignored it. Lawyers were not hired by opposing side. Trish Mehrkam

aithfulness is the seventh quality which Paul lists as the fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:2223) Faithfulness is the translation of the Greek word “pistis,” which can also be rendered as conviction or belief. Although it usually has the connotation of fidelity or loyalty, and applies particularly to someone who exhibits the virtue of reliability. A person who is faithful will be true to their faith, but will also be true to their friends and family. They will be someone whose word can be relied upon. Faithfulness is extremely important to maintaining good relations. True friends will strive to keep their word, and of course, families cannot function without everyone being faithful to each other. But, in addition to being faithful to others, we should also be faithful to ourselves. Being faithful to oneself entails being honest with oneself which is harder than it sounds. It also requires that you stick to your word when you have made a promise to yourself. There was a time when a gentleman could ensure that he would keep a promise to himself by simply saying to himself that he was honor bound to keep the promise. He would only break the promise to himself by simultaneously destroying his sense of honor, which no self-respecting gentleman would ever do. So we should be faithful, first and foremost to ourselves and faithfulness to others will follow naturally. This above all: to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, that thou canst not be false to any man. Shakespeare

Why does your vet require yearly The Obituaries. blood test for heartworms? Wanda J. (Meleski) Bench, 96, born April 6, 1922

Dear Questioning Blood Work, I can certainly understand your suspicion surrounding (what seems like) unnecessary blood work which can be expensive and create extra anxiety for both your dog and you! The fact of the matter is that all vets require yearly blood testing for heartworms. The month of April just so happens to be “Heartworm Awareness Month,” so now is as good a time as any to discuss how heartworm prevention works and why vets require a blood test every year. Lapses in Heartworm Prevention Are Dangerous As you probably know,

Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Lastly, heartworm preventative manufacturers offer product guarantees. If your pet gets heartworms and your vet can show that you’ve purchased preventives without lapsing and did yearly testing, the manufacturer will pay for your dog’s treatment. So, while it might seem unnecessary at first, yearly testing for heartworms is a sure-fire way to make sure that your pet stays healthy for years to come. Did You Know? On Saturday, May 12, Friends For Life Animal Shelter will be

hosting a Super Saturday Adoption Event at the shelter. At this super-sized adoption event, extra dogs will be on hand to meet and connect with, as well as adoption counselors standing by to facilitate a “love match.” The shelter’s collection of lovely and adoptable kitties will also be there to visit with as well. If you’ve been thinking about adopting, this is a wonderful opportunity to meet the dog or cat of your dreams! To learn more, go to www.friends4life.org/adopt/ Do you have a question for Tabby? Email her at deartabbyquestions@gmail.com

Dear Tabby, We recently took our dog in for her annual vet exam and the vet wanted to perform blood work before renewing her prescription for heartworm preventatives. Why do vets require an annual check of dogs’ blood for heartworms--even if they’ve been on a preventative? Questioning Blood Work in Forest Pines

heartworms are transmitted by mosquitoes. Heartworm preventatives can’t stop mosquitos from carrying heartworm larvae to your dog. Instead, they kill the larvae before they mature, reproduce and cause damage-but, they only work against certain larvae stages. Any larvae too young to be stopped by the preventative at dosing time will not be covered until next month’s dose. Any larvae too old will be able to grow into adults that can’t be killed by preventatives. So, any lapse in dosing could allow a larva to mature. The heartworm test is the only way to know if it is there before serious damage is done. Resistance to Heartworm Preventatives Is a Growing Issue With a yearly test, you have a chance to catch heartworms before they cause extensive damage to the vessels of the heart and lungs. If you skip testing, you might not know that your dog has contracted heartworms until it shows signs of cardiac impairment and, by then, the damage has been done. Also, resistance to heartworm preventatives is growing. Yearly testing can help prevent resistance development and can help veterinarians know when resistant worms move into the area. Prevention Is Guaranteed By

She was a life-long member of Polish National Alliance Progressive Lodge #2336. She is survived by her children Jean Baxter, Robert Bench, sister Stephanie Meleski Cegelski, eight grandchildren; and 16 greatgrandchildren.

Clarence T. Foyt, 91, born Aug. 14, 1926, died April 15. He is survived by his daughter, Celeste Foyt, son Dennis Foyt, and two grandchildren.

Art Valet: Art Stroll and a Tintype House Mitch Cohen Art Columnist

Get out your comfy party shoes and prepare for an art walk like no other. This Saturday night the Sawyer Yards campus, the second largest community of artists in the United States, and one of the fastest-gentrified cities in the U.S. is hosting a party! In case you forgot, this is also where Super Bowl LI hung their hats to play too. Unlike the regular open studios held every 2nd Saturday, the Sawyer Yards Spring Biannual Art Stroll is when the artists dress up and roll out the red carpet. As far as free events go, you canâ€™t do much better than this. If youâ€™re a fan of my First Saturday Arts Market, youâ€™ll likely run into dozens of artists that participate. Of course, you are encouraged to purchase art and thereâ€™s plenty of it. The campus represents every art medium I am certain. You can explore the campusâ€™ six studio buildings including Silver Street Studios â€“ 2000 Edwards St., Spring Street Studios â€“ 1824 Spring St., Summer Street Studios â€“ 2204 Summer St., The Silos at Sawyer Yards â€“ 1502 Sawyer St., Winter Street Studios â€“ 2101 Winter St. and the new Sabine Street Studios. Sabine Street is adjacent to Spring Street Studios in the north yard of the Sawyer Yards creative campus. Details: Saturday, April 28, 2018, 4 â€“ 9 p.m.Â Sawyer Yards creative campus including Silver Street Studios â€“ 2000 Edwards St. Though the event and parking are free, I would encourage you to hire a car. Parking can get insane. Get all the details including a campus map at SawyerYards.com. Last week I mentioned the

We Olive crawfish boil 1 p.m. â€“ 4 p.m. Sunday, April 29 We Olive & Wine Bar 249 W. 19th St.

This Sunday join the team at We Olive & Wine Bar for a crawfish boil with a twist. It starts with a guided olive oil tasting and then while listening to the tunes of musician Allison Bishop, every guest will receive a crawfish plate. The plate will include 2 lbs. of whole boiled crawfish, one corn, two red potatoes, and mushrooms. You will have access to the seasoning bar and may choose to add any of We Oliveâ€™s flavored salts or oils to your plate. After, additional crawfish will be available to order until supplies last. Tickets are $18 a person.

(Top right) Shelter in Place by Keliy AndersonStaley.

opening reception for Keliy Anderson-Staleyâ€™s first public art installation of Shelter in Place, a community-focused photography project. This Saturday is the last scheduled appearance of this exhibit. I had a front-row seat as Anderson-Staley prepared and built the simple temporary house-like structure, sheathed in original tintype portraits, (she had a lot of help) located right in the middle The Market at Sawyer Yards, my second Saturday art show. Several hundred portraits, each a one-of-akind metal plate, are on view on the surface of the structure. I have always been fascinated by tintype photography and it turns out that Anderson-Staley is nationally recognized for her work in the wet-plate collodion tintype process, one of the earliest photographic processes. Anderson-Staley has been cre-

ating new portraits in the past few months in Houston as part of Shelter in Place. Many of them will be on view for the first time as part of this installation. Anderson-Staley told me some of the portraits date back to the beginning of her career! Made of powerful individual portraits, the whole piece is also a portrait of the greater community. In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, the shelter is an expression of community-building, and recovery. The structure represents the community as a form of shelter, but also our collective fragility and vulnerability in the face of natural and environmental catastrophe. Â Check it out at 1502 Sawyer St. Ste. 400, around the back. www. andersonstaley.com Cohen is an artist and founder of First Saturday Arts Market and the new Market at Sawyer Yards, find him at ArtValet.com.
