Tryon to demolish four Eastside structures Town looks to handle some demolition in-house by Leah Justice
After approximately a decade of Tryon residents watching a number of structures in the Eastside community become increas-
ingly dilapidated, four of those structures can now be torn down. Tryon Town Council met Tuesday, Jan. 17 and approved ordinances to demolish structures at 366 East Howard Street, 351 East Howard Street and 123 Cleveland Road, as well as a structure on Shepard Street with no address but tax identification
of T1-D10. The process to demolish the structures has been long, with several attempts over the years to contact property owners, many being heirs who live out of state. Mayor pro-tem Roy Miller has asked the town for years to take (Continued on page 4)

asked last year that the town get the process rolling again. Miller said one structure is about 80 percent on the ground already. A resident asked council how a house has been ignored long enough that it is 80 percent on the ground. “I think we’re to blame,” Miller responded. “We continued to allow different contractors to drop the ball on code enforcement. Some of these issues date back to 2002 and 2003. I continually ask about these properties and we’ve
wasted years and wasted money because we continually start the process over. We had a code enforcement officer from Monroe, one from Charlotte, then shared with Columbus, but it’s our job to make sure every step was being followed. I agree with you wholeheartedly. It’s been on the ground for eight or nine years and it’s had a blind eye turned on it.” Tryon received one $40,000 quote to take down the structures. Interim town manager Joey Davis said the town has $16,000 in the budget for demolition and that’s why the town is trying to use in-house staff to do some of the demolition.

Tryon to apply for grant to fix E. Howard sewer lines by Leah Justice
Tryon could have some help in fixing an overflowing sewer line along East Howard Street. Council met Tuesday, Jan. 17 and approved applying for an infrastructure grant through the state’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). The grant is for a maximum of $750,000 with a five percent match, or up to $37,500 from the town. Tryon officials have been discussing the need to replace the trunk line that runs along
East Howard Street to the town’s sewer plant after an inflow and infiltration (I&I) study determined problems in the area. Some residents have had problems for years with manholes in the area overflowing with sewage during heavy rain events. The town was fined $7,000 by the state for those overflows in 2009. The grant would help the town replace the 16-inch line with a 24-inch line. Engineer Jonathan Hollifield told council last week that the
amount of rainwater coming into the system is overwhelming to the current trunk link. “We’ve got areas that the pipe is standing half full,” said Hollifield. “This would replace the 16-inch line with a 24-inch line, which would also give future capacity as well.” Hollifield added that the main problem is located upstream and there are problems throughout the system, but this replacement would alleviate all the overflows that the town currently has.
Council approved applying for the grant and must first send a letter of intent to the state. CDBG funds are provided to the state by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They are administered at the state level by the N.C. Department of Commerce through the Division of Community Investment and the Commerce Finance Center. The Isothermal Planning and Development Commission assists the town in applying for CDBG grant funding.

Cardinal men nab dominating win over Blacksburg by Joey Millwood
The fourth quarter is Landrum’s friend. The Cardinals have dominated the fourth quarter this season and Friday against Blacksburg was no different en route to a 53-35 win. After taking a 26-20 lead into the half, Blacksburg clawed its way to within 4 points by the end of third quarter at 33-29. Landrum, however, outscored the Wildcats 20-6 in the fourth quarter. The Cardinals were once again sparked by sophomore guard Aaron Bryant. Bryant came off the bench and scored nine points in the fourth quarter. He also had a big steal and a big assist. Truston Whiteside led the Cardinals with 13 points. Daniel Bridges added 11 points. “They came out and tried to slow us down,” Cardinal coach Lyn Smith said. “Our kids responded well.” This win continues Landrum’s roll in Region II-1A play. The Cardinals are ranked No. 2 in the state and are rolling towards back-to-back region championships. They are clicking on all cylinders as they head down the final stretch of region games.

Polk topples Mtn. Heritage in exciting overtime win by William Trakas
Friday night was one for the ages at Mountain Heritage High School. The wooden bleachers and brick walls of Mountain Heritage’s orange-lit gym make it either a favorite or a most hated place to play for the visiting teams. Combine that with an impressive fan base that loves to yell, and you have a noise pit that any
team would love to call home. In the opening period of the varsity boys’ game, it was critical for the Wolverines to match the intensity set by the crowd. They did just that with a spark from senior forward Akeem Anderson. Anderson grabbed multiple rebounds early, which sparked a run that closed out the first quarter with PCHS leading 15-13. Quarter number two was a period of runs as the Cougars pushed the
lead to 8 points midway through. But just as the home crowd became confident, the Wolverines stormed back with a 9-0 run of their own after a score board delay in which 6 of the 9 points scored in the run were not put up on the board. When the dust cleared, the Wolverines enjoyed a 6-point possession and the lead. With 5.2 seconds left before half-time, sophomore Anthony Carson fired
a three from the right-wing to break a tie. The Wolverines led 33-30 heading into the locker room. McEntire’s halftime words were clear: “Don’t let up now, guys, we still have another half to put this thing away.” The third started out with aggressive play from Cougars player Alex Biggerstaff.

Lady Cardinals win nail biter over Blacksburg Lady Wildcats by Joey Millwood
Friday night’s matchup with Blacksburg was big for two reasons for Landrum. Earlier in the season, the Lady Wildcats gave Landrum a region loss. In two weeks, the Lady Cardinals will play the only other team that has beaten them in region – St. Joseph’s. A win against Blacksburg on Friday night would put the Lady Cardinals and the Lady Wildcats in a tie for second place. That was enough motivation for Landrum as they went on to win this one 51-49. The win keeps them alive in the Region II-1A championship race. Landrum’s big three controlled the game on the offensive side of the ball. Taylor Jenkins led the charge with 11 points and 15 rebounds. Point guard Macy Atkins had 11 points and five steals. Lauren Pitts scored 12 points to lead the Lady Cardinals in scoring. “Coming out and winning this game makes our confidence go up,” Pitts said. “It definitely gives us a boost.” The game was huge for Landrum’s big picture. The win moves the Lady Cardinals into a tie for second place in Region II-1A behind St. Joseph’s. The Cardinals will play St. Joseph’s in two weeks and the
region title could be on the line. “(This win) gives us one step closer to our team goal,” head coach Deon Brice said. “We still have to take care of business and take it one day at a time.” Landrum went into the fourth quarter with a 42-34 lead, but the Lady Wildcats made a push. Blacksburg went on a 7-2 run to start the fourth quarter. Pitts responded with four straight points. With 1:06 left in the game, Blacksburg’s Mikala Ruffin hit two free throws to b r i n g t h e L a d y Wi l d c a t s to within one point at 48-47. Seconds later, Pitts responded again. The sharp-shooting guard threw the ball down court after an inbound pass and connected with Skylar Henderson for an easy layup. B l a c k s b u r g ’s J a s m i n e Dameron responded with a drive and two free throws. On the other end, Macy Atkins hit the backend of two free throws to give Landrum a 51-49 lead. The Lady Wildcats were still alive. With 4.8 seconds left, the Lady Wildcats got a shot off, but Atkins hauled in the rebound at the buzzer. Dameron led all scorers with 25. Ruffin added 12 points for Blacksburg.
staff is a consensus D-1 recruit standing at 6-5 with a jump shot that consistently finds the bottom of the net. Though largely held in check in the first half, he was still able to score 22 points. After a back and forth third, the Cougars enjoyed a 48-44 lead. In the final period of regulation, the Wolverines opened with a 5-0 run in the first 35 seconds. A time-out was quickly called by Buckner to stop the bleeding. From that point on, the fourth saw seven lead changes and 48 points scored. With two minutes to go, junior guard Alec Philpott hit back-toback mid range jump shots to put the Wolverines ahead by 4. As the clock ran inside a minute, Biggerstaff completed a crucial old-fashioned 3-point play to put the Cougars up 67-65 with 23.8 seconds left. Following a desperation foul by the Wolverines with 20.1 to go and steals by both teams on inbounds passes, the Cougars found themselves up by 4 with 7.9 seconds left. The Wolverines inbounded the ball to senior forward Joel Booker who ran the length of the floor in just over a second and pulled up from the top of the key with 6.6 seconds remaining - swish. A time-out was quickly called by McEntire as the Wolverines now found themselves down only one. The Cougars inbounded the ball to Lucas King, who was immediately fouled. King hit the first of two free throws, but missed the second one. Booker grabbed the rebound and made his way up court, passing to Anthony Carson. Carson took two dribbles with 2.6 seconds left and found Alec Philpott streaking to the basket on a superb cross-court pass between two defenders. Philpott’s 26th and 27th points of the game tied the score as time expired - 70-70. The teams traded baskets in OT until a series of defensive stops by the Wolverines,

along with key free-throws from Booker and junior forward Ben Stockdale, put the game away on a night to remember in Burnsville, 84-79. “Everyone on this team has a job they are responsible for, and everyone did their job tonight,” McEntire said. “We really preached rebounding and everybody rebounded tonight.” Philpott fouled out in overtime after adding a game, season and career-high 27 points. “It wasn’t just me or Ben out there tonight,” Philpott said. Ben [Stockdale] was the team’s second leading scorer adding 17 points. “Everyone got out there and did their job. Joel [Booker] came up big in the fourth for us.” After not scoring in the first three quarters, Booker added 11 points in the fourth. The game was important for conference standings as well. Polk and Heritage are the top two 2A teams in the conference and this win helped the Wolverines pick up a game on the Cougars. Now they are only one game back of the lead. The Wolverines, who improve to 11-8 (6-4), will go for their fourth consecutive win tonight at Mitchell.
Varsity girls
In a statement game, the 8-11 (3-6) Lady Wolverines came out of the gate with impressive defensive intensity against a Heritage team that averages almost 55 points per game. Poor shooting and tight defense seemed to be the storyline early on as the Wolverines found themselves down 10-8 after the first quarter. The start of the fourth meant trouble for the Wolverines as Heritage started to gain momentum with easy buckets around the rim, going on a 12-0 run, essentially putting the game out of reach for the Wolverines. Despite a hard-fought three quarters, the Wolverines were overmatched in the last period and fell 55-37 to the favored Cougars, who improved to a conference best record of 15-2 (8-1).

AARP: Does it really support seniors’ interests or its own? Anyone in America over the age of 50 has heard of or from AARP, and for the most part, how wonderful that organization is in its support of older Americans. T h e r e ’s n o d o u b t t h a t AARP’snonprofit efforts have, for at least the first 40 years of its 50-plus year existence since the mid-1950s, been an outspoken voice in support of seniors. In 1999, AARP founded its taxable, for profit division called AARP Services, Inc., which is a wholly owned taxable subsidiary of AARP. That organization has never made a very big effort to distinguish which of the activities it promoted and supported were for the good of their members, and which were for its own corporate revenues that are in excess of $1 billion per year. In 2008, according to their own financial reports, AARP generated $650 million in royal-
ties, $120 million in ad revenue ing and office space, which in its publications, $249 million makes the separation of their in membership fees and also for-profit and nonprofit efforts received $90 million in grants a bit suspect as distinct. which included two large fedYou see, non-profits are typieral grants.

AARP supported Obamacare because with increasing Medicare costs, and reduced Medicare benefits under the cuts proposed in Obama’s plan, millions of seniors on traditional Medicare are going to need supplemental or Medi-gap insurance. And who do you think is going to make a killing selling their insurance to those seniors? You guessed right if you said the insurance companies “blessed” by AARP. And it gets worse. Those on Medicare Advantage programs are going to get squeezed as Obamacare changes the reimbursement payments to them in 2014. And who stands to step in there to push their recommended paying providers? Right again, it’s AARP.
