Unsweetened Iced Tea Is Un-American

Story Time

by Warren Dixon

Liberty Public Library Wednesdays @ 11:00

It’s seldom that I take on a political cause. As a matter of fact, the last one I espoused in this column was the littering problem. The campaign, an attempt to encourage North Carolinians to litter more, was successful, more so than my wildest expectations. You only have to look at our roadsides to tell the impact one movement can make. It gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling every time I see a pile of trash along side the highway. The campaign resulted in the non-profit organization TRASHIT, Throw Refuse Away Safely on our Highways, Interstates and Thoroughfares. The premise of this organization was that since North Carolinians are not going to stop littering, we might as well make it legal. Besides, the nice people who adopt highways clean it up anyway. And what they don’t get and what the mowers don’t grind up, gets lost in the summer weeds. Some of those weeds are so high there are probably families living by the roadway. So successful was this littering campaign, that it became too much for me to handle and I had to put it on hold during the recent basketball season, during which I might remind you, Carolina won the National Championship. If only I’d had those “no show” courses when I was in college. Now, I am rested and ready to take on another problem, one that has regional implications. This cause may be closer to Southern hearts than anything else dear to the Southland, with the exception of NASCAR racing. I’m talking about sweet tea. Now you’d think the sweet tea tradition would be firmly entrenched in the South and that it would not need anyone to take up its cause. But we were in Charlotte one Saturday night not too long ago. The restaurant in which we wanted to eat had a three hour wait. We’ve usually eaten twice in three hours, so we went to a nearby restaurant with no wait. The reason it wasn’t crowded may have been the fact that it served no sweet tea. The waiter was profusely apologetic, as well he should have been. But the incident left me disturbed. I tried to reason with the waiter, explaining that he wouldn’t serve a beer and ask his customers to add the alcohol themselves. Or he wouldn’t serve Diet Coke to someone who had ordered a Coke and ask them to add the sugar. I explained to him that iced tea is only good if it has been sweetened while hot.  The preferable method is to boil the sugar with the tea bags. It is not humanly possible to sweeten tea once it’s cold. Sweet tea has long been a Southern staple. It helps give us our sweet, lovable, hospitable disposition. On the other hand, the lack of it makes our northern neighbors surly and ill tempered. The deeper you get into unsweetened tea country, the more you can tell its effects. By the time you get to Massachusetts, people can hardly stand each other.  A small group attempted to introduce sweet tea to northerners before the American Revolution. The group threw unsweetened tea into the Boston Harbor in protest, an act later known as the Boston Tea Party. Sweet tea did not catch on, however, and the people north of Virginia have been a gruff and shorttempered lot ever since. Several years later, Washington surprised Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virginia and defeated the British to end the war. Cornwallis had discovered sweet tea and was sipping the beverage on the front porch of his headquarters when Washington attacked. “I so loved the drink,” Cornwallis wrote in his memoirs, “that I cared less that we lost the war.” At the Battle of Gettysburg, General Lee wrote home that “the boys are pretty demoralized, having been forced to drink unsweetened tea for weeks…” Now the bitter stuff is slowly working its way southward, brought across the border mainly by uncaring restaurant chains, undetected by our customs officials. Of course, you have to remember that these are the same customs guys who let Japanese beetles, kudzu and killer bees into the Southland.  Georgia lawmakers have also recognized the problem several years ago. Representative John Noel, D-Atlanta, became upset when he couldn’t order sweet tea in Chicago. Then he came home and, of all things, couldn’t get it in the Blue Ridge Grill in Atlanta. He was so troubled by the incident that he sponsored a bill in the Georgia Legislature that would make it a misdemeanor “of a high and aggravated nature” not to offer sweet tea in any Georgia restaurant that serves iced tea. The bill proposed, of course, that the tea must be sweetened when it is brewed. and carried a sentence of up to 12 months in jail. This is not enough punishment, but it’s a start. I don’t think there’s a restaurant in Randolph County brazen enough not to serve sweet tea. But if they’re doing it in Charlotte and Atlanta, we could be next. Talk to your representatives, write your senators. Boycott restaurants that don’t serve sweet tea.  You don’t have to be able to read the tea leaves to see the handwriting on the wall. If they take our sweet tea away, can our grits be far behind?

The Rose Garden Club

South Eastern Karate Association

Serving Liberty for Nearly 25 Years Starting New Students Any Time Ages 5 to Adult No hidden fees or contracts required $45 per month (family discount available) 114 West Swannanoa Ave. Liberty NC (3rd floor)

Keep your eyes on the five “Welcome to Liberty “signs. The ladies of the Rose Garden Club have been busy cleaning up and preparing the planters around the base of the signs for new soil, plants and mulch. Each sign planter will have different native plants, wildflowers, pollinator plants plus evergreens for year-round color. This will be an ongoing maintenance project for the Club. Our goal is to have the planters finished in time to greet visitors coming in for the Antiques Festival. In addition to the new plantings the Club will have five new signs installed at the base of the large Liberty sign with the Garden Club logo and year established. The new signage in a smaller version will be installed at each of the projects around town that are taken care of by the club. As members of the National Garden Clubs and The Garden Club of North Carolina we will be applying for the -Roadside Award offered by the National Garden Club. This award has a monetary value for the Club that would help enable us to sustain our project. We would especially like to thank the Randolph County Tourism Development Authority- for approving our Grant applications to make funds available for this landscaping project and the new signage. Gilmore Plant and Bulb will be providing the plant material and has given recommendations as to what to plant in our planters. New members are always welcome, our meetings are held the second Tuesday of the month September through May at 6:30 pm. Each meeting is held at a different location with programs and guest speakers. If you love gardening come join us.

Jack Garner Donates Another Rifle to the Patterson Cottage   Jack Garner has donated another muzzle loading percussion rifle to the Patterson Cottage Museum, this one in memory of his wife, Marjorie Johnson Garner, born May 1932, died November 2008. The rifle is the second Jamestown rifle donated to the museum, both donated by the Garner family. The first rifle was made by Henry Wright and donated by the family in memory of Robert M. Garner, Sr. and his wife Maize Kimrey Garner. This rifle, although unsigned, has all the characteristics of a Jamestown rifle and is much more ornate than the Henry Wright gun. It has a three screw barrel tang, double brass dovetailed based front sight and twelve German silver inlays all typical of Jamestown rifles. It’s .38 caliber with a maple stock with original shellac that has turned dark over the years as in common in these rifles. It also has the faint engraving of a pheasant on the lock plate. Jack Garner also donated four 1930’s era Kodak cameras including a Kodak Junior Six-20, Kodak folding Brownie Six-20, Baby Brownie and No. 1 Pocket Kodak, along with an original photo of the signing of the treat ending World War II on the USS Missouri and a giant 1920’s map of Alamance County with hundreds of names of residents and their locations. “We’re probably going to have to build a Jack Garner wing to the museum,” Chairman Warren Dixon said, only half joking. “Jack has become our patron saint over the past year.” Another recent donation was made by Brad Hicks of a rare framed poster including the names of many local men who served with Company K of the 30 Infantry Division in World War I. The poster will be on display in the Library along with other items during the month of September for the 100th anniversary of the U.S. entry into the war. Dee Martin donated an early 1940’s pay record for Liberty Chair. For two weeks in July, 1940, employees made around .35 cents an hour. For 80 hours of work in two weeks, most made $28.00 with .28 cents being taken out for an “old age benefit and another .50 cents for an unspecified deduction. Johnny and Jean Younts brought a scrapbook from the early ‘40’s with clippings of local brides and soldiers. The scrapbook was created and donated by Ruth Smith of Staley. Come by the Cottage on September 30th and see these and other artifacts from Liberty and the surrounding area when the museum hosts its annual Heritage Festival.

ER Hall Of Fame Stories It was August of 1968. The Beatles, Marvin Gaye, Steppenwolf, Aretha Franklin and the Doors provided the musical backdrop to a distressed nation. Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy had been assassinated earlier in the year. The Vietnam War was raging. It was in this year that a new high school was preparing to open in Randolph County. The communities of Liberty, Ramseur, Franklinville, Grays Chapel and Coleridge would merge their high school populations to form Eastern Randolph. Only Liberty and Ramseur had fielded varsity football teams before, so the numbers of experienced players would be a concern for football. This new school would now play at the 3A level as an independent that first year although the players had always competed in 1A before. There was no gym, football or baseball field available, so they practiced at Ramseur and Liberty. Home football games were also rotated between the two old high school fields as well. Basketball games were played mostly at Liberty or Ramseur, however Grays Chapel and Franklinville hosted an occasional game. It would be many years before baseball would ever move from Craven Field in Ramseur, with o n l y the occasional game played in Liberty. Players in the early years carried their practice gear in their cars, and worked hard through all of the inconvenience and hardships. They were proud to wear the Green and Gold. Prior to the game against Providence Grove on September 22, Eastern Randolph will honor the inaugural Eastern Randolph Athletic Hall of Fame inductees:

Lorraine Owen Basketball In the fall of 1972 Eastern Randolph opened its new gymnasium.  That same year, Sophomore Lorraine Owen began her stellar basketball career at ER.   During her tenure as a three year starter, Lorraine amassed records that held for over three decades.  She had a double- double average in scoring and rebounding every year.  She earned All-Conference honors every year,   and was awarded the lst Courier Tribune All County Player of the Year.  She was Honorable Mention- All State and an East West All Star participant.  Lorraine also graduated at the top of her academic class. Lorraine went on to play for Kay Yow at NC State, where she was a 4 year letterer.   Her team won the NCAIAW Division 1 State Champions all 4 years of her NC State Career.   She was awarded Most Improved Player in 1976, Hustle Award in 1979 and served as CoCaptain in 1979.  She competed against the Taiwan National Team in 1976 and the Peoples Republic of China in 1979. Lorraine is the daughter of Betty Owen and the late Howard Owen of Staley, and is married to Jeff Watson.  She lives in Cary.

Volume 15 Issue 9

Coach Burton Cates Coach Cates can to Eastern Randolph in 1981 as a defensive coordinator and became the head coach in 1984 to 2008. He amassed many conference titles; Coach of the Year Awards; Coach at the East/West All-star game; Shrine Bowl Game. During his tenure, he and the Wildcats won two state titles. Coach Cates credits his success to his players, assistant coaches, and loyal community supporters. He feels his biggest success comes from his faith and family. Just recently he and the Lee County players gave him his 300th win. Although his 300th came as the Lee Coach leader, he is quick to recognize his unforgettable tenure at Eastern Randolph (as most of the wins were at Eastern) while serving in some veins of the school as educator, athletic director, and head coach.

Nina Foust Basketball

Andy Headen Football

Alan Hooker Football

While Nina Foust was actually a great basketball player in the 1970’s, she is being honored as an ER Hall of Fame recipient for her contributions to Golf. Nina had a stellar high school career at Eastern Randolph, which took her to Appalachian State, where she is a Hall of Fame recipient for both basketball and golf. At Appalachian State, she won the NCAIA W Championship. During her amateur career, she claimed low regional qualifying honors at the U.S. Women’s Open in 1980. She joined the LPGA tour in 1985 and had a impressive 10 year career, where she posted a career-low score of 67 during the final round of the 1989 Kyocera Classic. Nina is the daughter of the late John Foust and Ruth Foust of Ramseur.

Eastern Randolph finally had a home stadium in 1975 and within a few years, a giant of an athlete would thrill the fans. Andy Headen stared as a quarterback at Eastern Randolph under three coaches, Charlie Noell, Howard Johnshon, and finally Sal Gero. He earned All Conference and All State honors. Andy had a commanding presence as a high school quarterback, which earned him national recruiting recognition. Headen was recruited by a multitude of teams, including every ACC program, but wisely chose Clemson, where he was recruited as a quarterback, but soon found his niche as linebacker. He earned lst team All ACC honors, and helped Clemson clinch the National Championship in 1981. He was drafted by the NY Giants in 1983. During his career with the Giants, he compiled 19.5 sacks, 6 interceptions and 1 TD. Along with his six year tenure with the Giant he was on the Super Bowl Championship in 1986. Andy Headen is a member of an elite group of football players, having won both a college championship ring as well as a super bowl ring.

Alan Hooker, a 1998 graduate, was an allconference and AllAmerican football player at A&T. During his four years on the team, Hooker broke 15 school passing records and was named National Black College Offensive Player of the Year. He also was named A&T Athlete of the Year twice and was the football team's MVP for four consecutive years. After graduation, Hooker played briefly for the Dallas Cowboys. He was inducted into the Sports Hall of Fame in 1998. Alan’s career began at Eastern Randolph where 4 sports...played football, basketball, baseball and track...Conf. MVP in basketball & football Co-County in football & track --County MVP in basketball...ER Athlete of the year AP All-State first team football. He led the Wildcats to its first State Championship in 1983. He has served as part of the Randolph Community College faculty, as an A&T admissions counselor and as A&T's director of alumni affairs. He now works as an executive recruiter. Hooker recently earned a master's degree in adult education from A&T. Hooker and his wife, Wendy, have two children (QB at VA. Tech, Hendon and QB Dudley HS, Alston).

Mickey Burgess Football & Baseball

Scott Riddle Football

Dunks excite home crowds and fill gyms, and thunderous dunks excite both home and visitor crowds and overwhelmingly fill gyms. So much was the case with Hall of Fame recipient, Rodney Wilson.  A four year starter, Wilson averaged 16.9 points per game over his career and double digit rebounds for three years.  But by far, it is his dunks that fans will never forget, as well as the huge crowds that came to witness Wildcat basketball during his career.  Rodney was the Courier Tribune Player of the Year during his Senior Year and was awarded All County all 4 years.  He also earned All-Conference and was an East West All Star participant.  During the All Star Game, Rodney dunked the ball on his first 6 possessions.  He scored 22 points in that game, with 10 rebounds, earning MVP honors. Rodney went on to Pfeiffer University, where he was a 4 year starter.  He was Coach Bobby Lutz lst recruit, and his Freshman year, the team only won 6 games.  However, Lutz focused his recruiting on building a team around Rodney, and his team made the NAIA Elite 8 in 89 , and then the Final four in 1990, losing only 4 games his senior y e a r.  Rodney earned AllConference and All District honors,   and is the 4th  leading scorer in Pfeiffer history with 1618 points. He received his undergraduate degree from Pfeiffer and returned several years later to obtain a Masters Degree in Hospital Administration.  Rodney is the son of the late Robert and Brenda Wilson of Liberty.  He lives with his wife in Whitsett.

RCC Student Leadership Academy Application Deadline Sept. 15

Applications are being accepted for Randolph Community College’s 11th annual Fountain-Luria Student Leadership Academy. The SLA has been revamped this year, with new selection criteria and some new segments. Applicants are now required to have completed 24 credit hours with RCC as either a Randolph Early College High School student or a regular RCC student, according to Kelly Heath, chair of the SLA Standing Committee. “Programmatically, we have made some changes to eliminate topics that did not seem to be connecting with Academy members,” said Heath. “We have added a tools of leadership session (focused on business etiquette, listening skills, professional dress, etc.) as well as sessions on giving back to the community and how to bounce back from mistakes or failure.” The majority of the Student Leadership Academy sessions will be held on Thursday evenings from 5:30-8 p.m. with two Saturday sessions. The 2017-2018 Academy begins with a lunch session on Saturday, Oct. 7. Additional dates for 2017-18 are Oct. 19, Nov. 9, Jan. 25, Jan. 27, Feb. 15, and a graduation ceremony on Tuesday, March 20. Participants are required to attend all sessions. Students are selected to attend the Student Leadership Academy through a competitive application process. Interested students must fill out an electronic application form and ask an RCC faculty member to submit a reference form. In addition, applicants will have a brief interview with SLA Committee members. Any curriculum (college credit) student who has completed 24 credit hours with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher is eligible to apply. The Academy is named after local leaders Dr. Stuart Fountain and Dr. Alan Luria, who have supported the Student Leadership Academy since its inception in 2008. Students may obtain detailed information on dates, topics and requirements, plus links to the application and reference forms, at www.randolph.edu/ studentleadershipacademy. Applications and reference forms must be received by 3 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 15.

Liberty Elementary

was selected for a second year to go to the NCDPI Student Leadership Institute at Pfeiffer University. The institute focuses on student leadership through service.  Kaylan Currin, Amelia Lackey, Madison Hicks, Zoey Pugh, and Kaylee Shepherd were selected to go this summer. They are rising 5th graders and members of the Liberty Service Learning Club. Last year, the club focused on poverty by creating a clothing closet and community garden. This summer while walking around the University, the students were inspired to beautify their school and community through the focus of recycling and picking up litter this year.

By: Julie Powers Cub Master This School year 2017 – 2018 the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is introducing a pilot program and we’re opening up our Ranks to include Kindergarten age boys! Our “Lion’s Den” will only meet 2 times a month and we will have just as much fun as the older Cub Scouts. Reach out to us to find out more or come join us on Tuesdays. The law of the Scout is to be: Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean and Reverent Our Moto is to : Be Prepared Our Oath: On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to GOD and my country to help other people at all times and to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. We hope that our Cubs thrive and grow with these values and prove to be pillars in their community. As it is often said, it takes a community to raise a child, and our Pack is an outstanding community whom are all looking to shape our children into upstanding adults! I am a proud Cub Master of Pack 502! Last year we decided that we would complete a community service project and Liberty Elementary School was the perfect project with their new #beautifyliberty kindness rocks campaign. The idea is to create a rock garden with all Alumni and current students who attend(ed) Liberty at any point of it’s existence. Our Cub Scouts decided to branch off on this idea to “Beautify Liberty” and our project became designing a garden revive for the area in front of the current 2nd and 3rd grade hall. We came up with a theme and then created the space. A few of our Scouts were able to paint kindness rocks for the #beautifyliberty project and those rocks were added to our project. If you haven’t gone out to see the garden, please do, we’re so very proud of the space. Our Scouts now have a special pride in their school and they have a responsibility to keeping it a clean space. They also have true ownership in the garden and ALL of this is what we strive to teach the boys. Pack502liberty@gmail.com We welcome you to join us on Tuesday, August 29th at 7pm at the FUMC Fellowship hall across the street from the school. We will be having our Ice Cream Social and introduction to Scouting in Liberty. We look forward to meeting you!

If you are interested in becoming a scout Liberty Cub Scouts are recruiting again. Contact: Julie Powers Cub Master 336-880-0573 pack502liberty@gmail.com

Hospice of Randolph Seeking Auction Donations Hospice of Randolph County’s signature “Auction & Barbecue” event is still going strong. This year’s fundraiser will take place on November 4th at Southwestern Randolph High School. In preparation for the event, Hospice of Randolph County is asking the community for donations for sale in the auction. Examples of items needed for the auction include: fine art, gift certificates & products from local businesses, furniture such as dining room sets, bedroom & living room suits, antiques, collectibles, new electronics, floral arrangements & wreaths, jewelry and more. All goods are welcome, but the organization requests that items be in “new” or gently-used condition. A silent auction will take place during the BBQ dinner from 3:30pm-6:00pm. The live auction will begin at 6:45pm in the gymnasium with FOX-8 Morning News Anchor Cindy Farmer serving as celebrity guest auctioneer to kick off the auction.  Also assisting as announcer of the live auction again this year will be WKXR’s Larry Reid.  2017 marks the 34th Anniversary for Hospice of Randolph County’s specialized and compassionate care that it has provided to thousands of people across Randolph County. Donations of desserts are also needed for the BBQ dinner.  Those wishing to donate dessert items such as cakes, pies, etc., are asked to contact Lisa Huffman by October 10th, by calling (336)672-9300.  To help streamline the program, there will be no baked goods sold during the live auction.    Instead, there will be a special “Sweet Shoppe Bakery” bake sale set up to showcase and sell these delicious items. People donating items for this booth are asked to pre-register their baked goods with Lisa Huffman. This year’s attendees will once again enjoy BBQ prepared by the Randolph County Livestock & Poultry Association.   Tickets are $10 a plate, which includes barbecue, sides, drink and a dessert. All money raised from the event will go to benefit in the care and support programs for Hospice of Randolph patients, families and caregivers.  All donations of auction items are tax-deductible and donors will be acknowledged in publications and media. If you would like to donate items or purchase tickets, please contact Hospice of Randolph County by visiting www.hospiceofrandolph.org or by calling (336) 672-9300
