Head-On Accident Blocks La Push Road

At approximately 7:30 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 30, a two-vehicle head-on collision with entrapment and injuries in both vehicles occurred at mile marker 12 on the La Push Road.

Law enforcement, members of Fire District 1, Fire District 6, LaPush Fire, as well as EMS all responded to the scene. One occupied car had caught fire and it was extinguished by a passerby with a fire extinguisher.

A Forks fire engine and the ambulance rescue vehicle both provided jaws of life support to extricate the entrapped occupants.

The Washington State Patrol, which is investigating the accident, reported that the drivers involved in the accident were Cheryl Holcomb, 56, of Forks who was driving a 2000 Kia, and Nicole and Carl Realing who were driving a 1996 Ford Explorer.

WSP reported that the Holcomb vehicle crossed the center line striking the Realing vehicle head-on in the eastbound lane.

Holcomb was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center. Nicole Realing, the other driver, age 39, also was airlifted to Harborview and Carl Realing, her passenger, age 55, was not injured. Both vehicles were totaled.

Drugs or alcohol were not involved and all occupants were wearing vehicle restraints.

The accident remains under investigation. The road was closed for two and a half hours.

Cheryl L. Holcomb, was in serious condition in the intensive care unit at Harborview as of Monday and Nicole L. Realing, had improved to satisfactory condition at the hospital and was no longer in the intensive care unit. Submitted photo

Last week the City of Forks water superintendent Ivan Cowles determined that there was no longer a need to maintain the emergency water use restrictions put into place in September.

Community members may once again undertake the following activities that previously were restricted or limited: Commercial and residential lawn watering; Commercial and residential vehicle washing, with the exception of the following: The city still would ask that water customers limit the filling of swimming pools and hot tubs and hold off on pressure washing or hosing down of buildings and pavement.

“Water levels have come up but if we have a dry winter, it is still a good idea to conserve now just in case,” said City of Forks Attorney/Planner Rod Fleck.

The city would like to thank the community for their conservation efforts undertaken during the past two and a half months.

Fire Chief Scott Swagerty, of the Three Rivers Fire Department, reported to the Forks Forum that on Thursday, Oct. 29, at about 10:40 a.m. two vehicles caught fire at mile marker 9 on the LaPush Road. One vehicle was towing another vehicle, which caught on fire and spread to the towing vehicle.

There were no injuries but both vehicles had to be towed. The owner of the vehicles was from Oregon and was sightseeing. It is believed the fire was caused from the towed vehicles brakes being engaged and overheating. Submitted photo

EVAN J. MARSHALL, MANDOLINIST Marshall is an internationally renowned mandolin virtuoso and is widely regarded as the world’s premier solo performer on mandolin in Duo-Style. By himself, he sounds like several of the world’s finest mandolinists performing together. His stylistic signature is classical, with strong influences from the Italian and American folk traditions. Country guitar legend Chet Atkins called him “A true virtuoso, one of the few great musicians of our time.”

Inspired by Atkins and violinist Jascha Heifetz, Marshall has created a uniquely recognizable approach to solo mandolin performance that combines bass lines, chords, rhapsodic runs and tremolo melodies. He started classical violin studies at age 7 and added the mandolin at age 14.

Two of his solo mandolin recordings have been released by Rounder Records: “Evan Marshall Is the Lone Arranger,” which the Washington Post labeled “Truly dazzling,” the RaleighDurham Independent called “Superhuman,” and the Fresno Bee called “Mind-boggling”; and “Mandolin Magic,” which the St. Paul Pioneer Press applauded for a “Stunning mastery of interpretation.” He also has recorded four solo CDs for his own label, Mandolin Conservatory.

In 1995, Marshall made his first appearance on “A Prairie Home Companion” with Garrison Keillor. Between 1993-2005 he was a featured soloist at Disneyland, performing his signature “William

Rod Fleck

Tell Overture” Finale for about 2 million visitors to the famous Golden Horseshoe Theater during the course of 10,000 shows. He has performed and taught at numerous regional and international conferences for mandolinists, who hold Marshall in particularly high regard; Don Stiernberg has referred to him as “The Michael Jordan of the mandolin.”

ABOUT BRIAN OBERLIN Oberlin is an internationally acclaimed mandolin player and educator. During his 12-year professional career, he has been playing swing, bluegrass and Italian classical as a solo mandolinist and vocalist. Along with the myriad of award-winning bands and ensembles he has collaborated with throughout the United States and Europe, Oberlin also is the founder and director of the River of the West Mandolin Camp and the Oregon Mandolin Orchestra. When he is not performing, he teaches music to children and adults at art centers, cultural events, festivals, camps, music schools and academies. Originally from Grand Rapids, Mich., Oberlin now lives in Portland, Ore.

TO THE

Editor

Former School Board Member Speaks Out

Dear Editor, I would like to give some insight into why I quit the school board after almost 10 years of service. In a word: honesty. At the entrance to our school are the school’s core covenants — Respect, Integrity, Commitment.

They should be Honesty, Caring and Fairness. You cannot have respect if you’re not honest.

You can’t have integrity if you’re not honest. Commitment is a vague word. You can be committed to anything.

We need to care enough about our kids to protect them, to teach them and to lead them in the right direction. A child that feels you care about them will follow.

Fairness, whether on the field or in the classroom, will gain you respect. The kids are more willing to work harder for you.

I taught my kids, and any others that would listen, to be honest, stand up for what’s right even if it means taking a whipping or making enemies. I’m willing to practice what I preach.

(Except for the quitting part.)

Editors Note: Cathy will turn 65 on Thanksgiving Day and she is residing at FCH Long Term Care. Merle shared with me that Cathy was born seven weeks early. Merle and Arnita had never heard of Down syndrome. Their doctor told them that Cathy would never walk or talk and that they should institutionalize her as soon as possible before they became “emotionally attached.”

As a recipient of many of Cathy’s hugs, I think of what we would have missed if Cathyhad never come in to our lives.

THE REAL FORKS

The Candy-HandingOuting Disaster

By Christy Rasmussen-Ford On Friday evening, I decided to spice up my life a little by breaking my foot. At the time, it seemed like a good idea.

Looking back now though, I can see that I should have just gone with a drastic haircut or something.

Unfortunately, I can’t go back in time so here I am, unable to walk and forced to stay on the couch … with the exception of when my kids need something … which is every three minutes. Basically, I’m never on the couch. The only real change in my life is that it now takes me an hour to get to the kitchen. Crutches are not nearly as fun as they seem.

I wish that I had a really cool story to tell about my broken foot, but I do not.

In my perfect world, I could tell everyone that I ran out into traffic to save a mama cat and her 12 kittens who were all seconds away from being hit by a semi-truck. Sadly, the truth is that I tripped over my dog’s tennis ball while taking dirty laundry to the washing machine. If that isn’t the uncoolest broken foot story, I don’t know what is.

As it turns out, not being able to walk is incredibly inconvenient, especially during special occasions. This may come as a surprise to some of you, but Saturday was Halloween. Originally we were just going to turn off the lights because I was supposed to work. Instead, I was stuck at home and tasked with the candy-handing-outing. Getting creative, I had our couch pushed all the way up to the front door so that I could reach over and open it, as opposed to trying to crutch myself over every time.

Sometime during the evening, my 2-year old decided that she wanted to be a candy-hander-outer with me. I opened the door and she put candy in the bags. She was super cute (besides telling a few kids to go away) and I thought the evening was going to be a huge success. I was wrong.

With me leaning over from the couch, I guess I appeared to be about toddler height. I didn’t realize this until I heard a mom say to her kids, “How old were those kids?! Was there an adult there?” Normally I would laugh something like this off, but as I recently found out, a CPS investigation is no laughing matter.

Considering that kids are not the most reliable sources of information, there is a good chance that the record wasn’t set straight. So now I feel the need to publicly declare that I (technically an adult) was at my house on Halloween. I did not leave two toddlers home alone to hand out candy on Halloween … mostly because I wouldn’t have gotten any of the leftover candy.

For questions, comments or to adopt the dog who tried to kill me (I’m mostly kidding), please e-mail me at christyrasmussen@yahoo.com.

Guest Commentary

Heroin and other such drugs

By Penny Winn I humbly ask your indulgence as I tell my tale. I am not a journalist and this was not meant to be a story out in print.

It was just a fact-finding mission for me.

After I read the article about Olympic Graphic Arts being robbed and Joyce’s comment that the police said that her business was in a “bad neighborhood” I was incensed. I thought how can a business that is across the street from a church be in a bad neighborhood?

But she does have those RVs right behind her and my house is across the street from them so I better investigate. I started talking more to my neighbors. I took my dog Maggie and went for a walk. I was so distressed to hear what my neighbors had to say.

Many were so frustrated by the lack of support from the police that they are going to try to put their houses up for sale and move from the community; some are afraid to let their children play outside anymore; another was robbed while they were sleeping and is terrified to go to bed anymore.

As I talked to more people the stories became clear that they all were going to get weapons and if people came into their homes they were going to kill them. I leave you with this thought for just a moment as we move further into our story.

After these conversations I called and talked to our Chief of Police and asked him what the problems were and why? I have to admit that I was raging.

I love our little town and hate that this is happening.

After I said my peace telling him that he needed more police out at night making more arrests and making sure he had enough evidence to keep them in jail, he told me that his officers were making arrests but that Rod Fleck and Judge John H. Doherty were not keeping them in jail and that he could not do his job if they did not do theirs.

He went on to say that other neighborhoods started neighborhood watches and that he would be glad to meet with anyone in a group setting even if there were only two people.

I would love to set this up and think that we need to take him

up on this offer. Our conversation went on with him stating that the people that his officers put in jail for drug and burglary offenses are usually out on bail within two days or less and are doing the same thing as soon as they are out.

For those that stay longer in jail for drug charges, when they are released as soon as they need a new drug fix and the money runs out, they will go rob their neighbors. If they steal cars and they put them away the car thefts stop while they are in jail but as soon as they are bailed out the thefts start again. He doesn’t have enough police to keep up with the arrests needed to keep putting them back in jail if they are just going to be put back out on the streets again as soon as they are put in jail.

I thanked him for his time and told him that I would call Rod Fleck and Judge Doherty and that is what I did next. When I reached Rod Fleck I was again CONTINUED on page 11

Her research follows that people have long reported observations of corvids (jays, magpies, crows, ravens, etc.) vocalizing and gathering around their fallen comrades and ritual-like “funerals.” Previous work had suggested that this may be a function of them understanding danger.

Her specific research dives deeper into this idea by looking at longterm changes in crow behavior following specific events and whether new predators (in this case people) can be inferred based on their proximity to dead crows.

The basis for her research is that crows, like a number of other animals that includes some primates, elephants, dolphins and other corvids, appear to perform ritualistic funeral behaviors once they discover a dead member of their own species. These behaviors can include touching, communal gathering, vocalizing or decreased play.

Swift believes that people who live or work closely with animals find it tempting to anthropomorphize these behaviors based on our subjective opinions. One of the naturalistic fallacies we fall into is often how smart or emotional we believe the animals we care about are.

As a research scientist Swift separates her personal feelings about animals and uses research techniques that allow her to objectively ask questions about animal behavior. She will share her conducted field SEE CROW, page 11

Cross Country Champions

The past two weeks the boys and girls cross country teams have competed at league and district championships. At league, the girls took second, the boys first. The junior high runners also competed and did well, with Madison Carlsen taking fourth and Karen Ensastegui taking eighth for the girls. For the boys it was Matthew Larson fifth, Zach Johansen 30th, Robbie Williams 31st, William Fleck 32nd, and Archer Preston 35th.

At district the boys again took first, on a very wet, muddy and sloppy course, winning the first ever District Championship for Forks in cross country.

They qualified three individuals in the top 15 to go to state, but as they won, the entire team will be competing Nov. 7 at Pasco’s Sun Willow Golf Course. Alan Ensastegui took second. After leading for two miles, he lost one of his shoes in the mud and then slipped on a hill, fell, got up, finished and still got second

at 17:08. Austin Pegram took 11th at 18:09, Sam Gomez 15th at 18:32, Hugo Lucas 19th at 18:42, Alvaro Ortiz 26th at 18:42, and Jony Lua 33rd at 19:07.

The girls team took sixth, but missed sending the team to state by a mere four points. Qualifying for state individually were Enid Ensastegui ninth at 21:29, Marissa Bailey 10th at 21:43, Jessica Olivera 34th at 25:03, Chelsea Biciunus 39th at 25:29 and Rochelle Smith 54th at 32:59.

COMMENTARY, from page 4 riled up. I asked him what we need to do to help make Forks safe.

He said that we all need to keep calling 9-1-1. If you see something suspicious, call; if you think something is up, call.

If you hear of something, call.

Always call 9-1-1. I asked him what he was doing to keep the drug offenders in jail. He told me that he does not try to do that. His first line of defense is to put them into rehab.

I told him that is noble but what if they did not want to go? He said that they try to force this on them. I asked if he has strict consequences for the offenders so that they don’t want to stay in Forks? Similar to the military.

He said the military takes your job, your house and puts you in jail, and he does nothing like that here. Here they go to jail for 13 days prior to seeing the judge; at that point they already have had their time served, so then they have to pay a fine.

The next time they may have to stay longer. I asked if he was ever going to ask for the maximum sentences on these repeat offenders and he said “No.” He wanted them to go to rehab. I said, “Even if they did not want to go knowing that the rehab would fail if this is the case?” He said, “I currently have one defendant who wants to go to jail for 6 months instead of going to rehab but I said no.” This baffles me.

In my mind I see this person back on the streets robbing

for drugs again and hurting our community. Why are not we putting him/her in jail for the 6 months? I again pressed, “Why aren’t you going for the maximum to force these people to leave our community? If you have that latitude, why aren’t you?” “Again Penny,” he said, “I want these people to go to rehab.” I replied, “But we both know that they don’t want to go and only 1-3 percent will work, so other than those who want to go to rehab, what are you doing to help this and why are you not going for the maximum and helping to make Forks safer?” “Penny,” he said, “I don’t think you understand meth and heroin are everywhere. Do you know that heroin is a pandemic?”

CROW, from page 6 experiments including employing brain scanning techniques. Her premise is that “crow funerals” either play a utilitarian purpose of learning about danger, social opportunities, or they just might be akin to the grieving process we experience as humans.

The brain scanning technique her team of researchers use allow them to peer into the brain of a living, thinking crow without ever having to euthanize the animal.

Swift and her research have been featured in the mass media including on PBS, KOMO News, and Mother Nature Network as well as The New York Times and Peninsula Daily News.

Come join us for this fantastic presentation of research studies that provide bridges from humans to other animals that are critical to fostering a culture that respects and protects the natural world. No matter your feelings for them (corvids), nearly everyone has a story about crows.

The fact that they are conspicuous and thrive in all kinds of human-dominated environments means that crows are a uniquely accessible animal and they offer a wealth of opportunities to connect people of all interests and backgrounds to science.

It is Swift’s hope that her team’s research will provide a more compassionate lens with which to understand crows and contribute to a growing movement of corvid enthusiasts. When you join us on Friday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m. feel free to ask questions or share your own unique story.

FORKS FORUM

Thursday, Nov. 5, 2015 • 13

Logging and Mill photos to go on display On Friday, Nov. 13, the ONRC, 1455 S. Forks Ave., will host the work of John Tylczak. Tylczak came to the West End in the 1980s and photographed area logging and mill activities. The photos are black and white. The evening will start with a slide presentation by Jack Zaccardo at 6 p.m. and Tylczak will speak about his work at 7 p.m.

The Forks Forum interviewed him last week …

FF: What inspired you to do these photos in this style?

John: I was inspired by the efforts of the pioneering photographers who left the comforts of their portrait studios to venture into the woods and camps with 100 pounds of gear and took exquisite images of people like my grandfather, a faller in Mason County.

FF: Can you describe the equipment used and any special processing.

John: I’ve used the same Toyo 4x5 field camera for 30 years. 4x5 means that the film is 4 by 5 inches in size. The larger sheets of film produce

Appliances

images with much better grain quality. Digital folks would understand this as “resolution.”

The photographs are printed on heavy museum-grade paper and then toned with selenium. The selenium increases the archival quality of the print and also warms the tonal range just a bit.

FF: How did you choose to come to Forks to take the photos?

John: Twenty-five years ago loggers and shake mill workers were relatively easy to find in Forks.

FF: Did you just drive around and ask people if they could be photographed?

John: That is almost exactly how it worked. My academic training is in American social history and somewhere through my master’s program I became aware of the contribution photographers had made to our

being a historian, I would have to contribute something. My writing was fine, but photography seemed to be a more interesting avenue to meeting his challenge.

The project started with

two summers in the logging sites and mills of the Simpson Timber Company in Mason County. I grew up in Shelton and Simpson had announced that they were going to close the last residential logging camp (Govey) in the state. There were people I knew who helped me get access to the company’s operations. After the second summer, I had a feeling that I might really be onto something important that was rapidly undergoing significant changes. I was teaching at the University of Nevada at the time and was fortunate enough to receive a sabbatical grant that gave me a year (and a modest income) to further pursue the project. That was 19961997. That was when most of the images in the project were made.

I had prearranged with some of the sawmill owners to pay them a visit, but for the logging crews and shake mill operators, it was generally no more than finding the person who seemed

Announcements

to be in charge, explain what I was doing and offer to sign a liability waiver. Frequently I would hang around for half a day watching the operation … watching the light. There were only a couple of occasions where I was refused access to sites.

FF: Have the photos appeared elsewhere? You said the MOHAI? Magazines?

Elsewhere …

John: Yes, the work has appeared in the old “Washington” magazine and in the State Museum’s “Columbia” publication.

FF: Do you have a favorite?

John: I have a lot of favorites.

Last winter I digitally scanned all of the images and rediscovered a lot of wonderful photographs that I had forgotten. The pictures also have a different presence after I’ve been in the darkroom and made enlargements. Currently I also have an exhibition of 10 images at the University of Washington in Seattle. Those photographs are 16 by 20 inches in size.

“Ode to Beaver Falls”

By John Leavitt

Beaver Falls this summer.

Earlier this year, I started to fear, that the Summer drought, would leave its Majesty without, the water that it needed to flow, over the edge to a pool below.

Oh sure I knew it’d rain in the Fall, restoring its Majesty’s beauty to us all.

Yes it was painful to see, but I waited for its Majesty, to return to be a glorious sight, where once again former raindrops, would take flight.

Now the rains have started fallin’, as Fall has come a bawling.

I can honestly say at this fine hour, Beaver Falls, is ruling at full power.
