Inside Story
Texas Budget Close To Passage In
Final Week
AUSTIN — Actions taken by the state House and Senate
point toward the possibility of completing a state budget
on or before May 30, the final day of the session.
House Speaker Joe Straus and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst,
who presides over the Senate, sent out
press releases late in the week indicating
negotiations were going well enough to
pass a balanced budget that relies on
historically deep cuts.
The House did pass a Senate “fiscal
matters” bill — one just for public education — but House members attached
amendments to the bill. The Senate,
in turn, refused to concur on those
amendments. A conference committee
Ed Sterling of five House members and five Senate members has a shrinking window
of time to come to an agreement on the final language.
Another Senate fiscal matters bill, one that deals with
budget areas other than public education, was scheduled
for consideration in the House on May 23.
Texas Comptroller Susan Combs on May 17 generated optimism about the state’s financial health a few
days before the Legislature entered the final week of
the 140-day session without a finalized state budget for
2012-2013.
“I am raising the general revenue estimate for the next
biennium by $1.2 billion,” Combs said, estimating that

It’s Graduation
Time Again In
Tyler County
Tyler County is blessed with five outstanding school
systems, and each year The Tyler County Booster recognizes on our front page those students who have reached
the pinnacle of academic achievement during the year.
These students are clearly intelligent and hard working
to have become Valedictorians and Salutatorians, but
have not achieved these honors alone. The parents that
motivated them and the many fine teachers in Tyler County
that educated them need to also be recognized for their
many years of hard work.
See all this year’s grads beginning on Pg. 1C of this
issue of the Booster!

Concession Stand
Burglary update
In March, Warren High School’s newest concession stand
was burglarized twice, according to investigating officer
Trisher Ford with the Tyler County Sheriff’s Department.
The video provided by school officials did not uncover
more information to implicate suspects. Ford reported there are six suspects currently. Four
of them have fled the jurisdiction and two, both Warren
students, have confessed. Mike Paddie, Warren public
information officer said, “Warren ISD has taken the appropriate steps to bring charges against the individuals
responsible for the vandalism of district property. However, according to information we received from the Tyler
County Sheriff’s office, there is not enough evidence to
move forward with charges.”
Statewide cooperation leads to
drug conviction in Tyler County
Houston drug task force officers observed a house in
Houston last year with suspected drug
dealers, over an extended period of time,
until they were ready to “hit the road”
with their merchandise. According to
Sergeant Mike McCulley, it is standard
procedure to attempt to arrest during
a traffic stop in some cases for safety
reasons. Kemo Nelson, age 35 of Houston was pulled over in Woodville for a
seatbelt violation and after a search by a Nacogdoches canine
officer, Nelson was charged with manufacture and delivery
of a controlled substance, more than 49 grams and less than
200 grams. Also arrested that day was Michael Bayonne, age 31, of
Alexandria, Louisiana who later pled guilty and was given
10 years probation. Nelson, who chose not to plead guilty,
faced a jury trial Friday, May 13 in Woodville. The jury
found Nelson guilty of possession of a controlled substance
and he received a 10-year sentence at Texas Department of
Criminal Justice. According to officers, the drugs were
packaged in a way that showed intent to sell, but the jury
did not convict on that charge.
Off duty Sheriff’s Deputy makes lifesaving
discovery in WalMart Parking Lot
Off duty Sheriff Deputy
Charles Marshall was in
the parking lot of WalMart
around 11:20 p.m. on Friday,
May 20 when he discovered
a car idling with brake lights
on and two people who
appeared to be passed out,
asleep or dead in the front
seat. Woodville officers
John Fuller and Sgt. Mike
McCulley were called to the
scene to discover the vehicle
was not only running, but in
drive. Grant money for local districts
The federal Education Grant money covering August 2010 to September 2012 are now
being made available to all school districts
in Texas thanks to the Doggett amendment. According to Tyler County school officials,
the money earmarked for Texas schools
by the federal government (Education
Recovery Rehabilitation Act – ERRA) was
supplanted by the state of Texas. “The first round of money made all of us
excited until the state decided to take that
same amount out of our budget,” said Col-
mesneil superintendent Stacy Ackley. “It
was no longer new money to help schools,
but became replacement money to help the
state. “I hope after the Doggett amendment, this
money will actually be additional funds
coming, but we will not get excited until
we know for sure.” Amounts for distribution to Tyler County
schools are: Chester $39,407; Colmesneil
$97,020; Spurger $80,879; Warren $215,450;
Woodville $265,595.
The unconscious driver
had his foot on the brake. Michael Earl Brady, age
32 of Village Mills was
arrested for public intoxication and released to Hardin
County where he had two
outstanding warrants for
bond forfeiture and forgery. The passenger, Jackie
Wayne Robbins, Jr., age 24
of Dayton, would not wake
up and Dogwood EMS was
called to the scene. While
putting him on the gurney,
Robbins woke up and became combative and violent. He was arrested and
charged with public intoxication and transported to the
jail and was later arraigned
by Judge Judith Haney.
Ilegal cemetery thefts increasing in county
Local residents have informed the Booster of several
occurrences of individuals
taking flowers, statues, etc. off
some gravesites and placing
them on other gravesites or
just stealing them altogether.
According to Janie Singletary, someone stole the flowers

off her husband, Jim Singletary’s grave during the week
of Easter at Franks Branch
Cemetery in Spurger. Additional reports have come
from Campground Cemetery
in Woodville of stolen flowers
during Mother’s Day. “This represents the lowest
of the low when someone will
steal from a grave,” said Dee
Rudd. “I put new flowers at
my mother, Beatrice Lee’s
gravesite just before Mother’s
Day and on Monday they were
gone.” According to Police Chief
Scott Yosko, this is a state jail

anyone has information about
someone stealing from, or

Woodville, contact the police
department. If it is in the
county, contact the sheriff’s
department. New Veterans Van Ribbon Cutting May 29
There will be a ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating the new Veterans’ Van Sunday,
May 29, from 2 p.m. until 4 p.m., at VFW Post #2033. The Post is located behind

Local Scout Leader Honored—National President of the Girl Scouts of the USA Connie Lindsey
(right) presents volunteer Charlean Wiggins (left) the Ervan Chew award for her dedication to
pluralism and service to the community. The award is only given once per year during GSSJC’s
2011 Adult Recognition Event, which honors outstanding leaders, volunteers, community groups
and families in the Girl Scout community. To receive the award, recipients had to contribute significantly to the values of pluralism, make an impact on Girl Scouting through community pluralism
and show commitment to the Girl Scout mission and the pluralism statement. “Charlean is a testament to everything Girl Scouts stand for,” said CEO Mary Vitek. “She embraces inclusiveness
and teaches her girls to act as a sister to every Girl Scout. We are proud to have her leading these
young ladies into adulthood.”
As an assistant service unit manager and a troop leader of two, Charlean works with girls of
diverse backgrounds regularly. Both of her troops are multi-level and culturally diverse, but one is
exclusively for the girls who live at the Sinclair Center in Woodville. The Sinclair Center is a home
for children under the care of Child Protective Services. Every week, Charlean and her co-leader
hold troop meetings at the center to give the girls the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, teach
them cooperative learning and encourage them to pursue badges and other Girl Scout programs.
“Our 2011 Ervan Chew recipient, Charlean Wiggins, demonstrates in her everyday life that she
believes as Ervan did – every girl deserves the best program possible,” said GSSJC Board of
Director Louise Villejo.

Texas budget close to passing in
final week
Continued From Page 1A
sales tax, oil and gas production tax and
motor vehicle sales tax should bring in
more revenue than trends indicated earlier.
Of the projected
$1.2 billion, the
largest component is $400
million in oil and
gas production
tax. Whatever
the real number
Capitol Highlights turns out to be for
oil and gas proBy
duction taxes, 75
percent of those
Ed
are constitutionSterling
ally reserved for
deposit into the
state’s so-called “rainy day” fund.
Even though the budget is expected to
total more than $160 billion, the rainy day
fund remains a bone of contention. Some
Texans say it is “raining” now, so it is time
to use most, if not all of the fund to shore
up cut-back public education and health
care programs. And some Texans stand
with Gov. Rick Perry, who said he would
reject any plan that employs the fund in
2012-2013. House Bill 1 in its present form
does not use rainy day funds.
Perry, now in his eleventh year as governor, recently has been mentioned as a
possible presidential candidate in 2012.And
although he’s been shrugging off the idea
while making speeches that seem national in
scope, Perry’s pressing task is to scrutinize
the growing pile of passed legislation on his
desk. He has until June 19 to sign, veto or
let bills become law without his signature.
Here are a few of the 180 bills the governor
had signed as of May 20:
HB 15: relating to informed consent to an
abortion.
HB 558: relating to payoff statements
provided in connection with certain home
loans.
HB 613: relating to unauthorized harvesting
of standing timber.
HB 1806: relating to fishing tournament
fraud.
SB 18: relating to use of eminent domain
authority.
SB 894: relating to employment of physicians by certain hospitals.
SB 1160: relating to the liability of landowners for damage or injury, including liability
for harm to a trespasser.
SB 1269: relating to transportation, lodging, and meals offered to and accepted by
public servants.
In other recent action, the House approved
Senate-originated redistricting bills for
House districts and Senate districts. Those
bills may get the governor’s signature, but
there already are indications from certain
Democratic lawmakers that redrawn maps
that cut up communities of interest and
disenable minority opportunity districts
will be challenged in federal district court
under the U.S. Voting Rights Act. Of the
redistricting bills, only the one that redraws
State Board of Education districts was on
the governor’s desk as of May 22. That
bill will take effect, without the governor’s
signature, on Aug. 29.
Tax holiday this weekend
State sales tax holidays put a damper on the
intake of state and local taxes, but strangely
enough, they survived the Legislature’s revenue hunting and budget writing process.
In fact, Texas’fourth annual “Energy Star”
Sales Tax Holiday is May 28-30. “You
can save water and energy by purchasing
efficient, ENERGY STAR appliances,”
said Comptroller Combs. “And during the
ENERGY STAR Sales Tax Holiday, you
won’t pay state or local sales taxes on your
new appliances.”
Unemployment rate drops
The Texas Workforce Commission on
May 20 reported Texas’ seasonally adjusted unemployment rate decreased to 8.0
percent for April, down from 8.1 percent
in March, and from 8.2 percent a year ago
and Texas’ total nonfarm employment was
up by 32,900 jobs in April for a total gain
of 254,400 jobs from a year ago.
Heritage Village Busy With Tours This
Spring!
I mentioned last week that we had
eighteen applications from all the five
high schools in Tyler County for the first
scholarship offered by Tyler
County Heritage
Society. When
the scholarship
committee from
the Board of
Directors met
Heritage Village to review the
applications,
By
they really had
Sandy
a difficult time
Taylor
making a decision and solved
the problem by asking permission to
award not one but two scholarships this
year. Permission was granted and the
recipients will not find out who they are
until graduation! You will also not be
told who they are until after their graduation ceremony because we want it to be
a surprise for them.
What this is leading to is setting up a
restricted scholarship fund so that, funds
permitting, we will be able to award a
scholarship at each high school beginning
next year. You can help us build up the
account with your donations in honor of or
in memorial to a loved one. Your deductable donation will be acknowledge to you
and a card will be sent to the one(ones)
of your choice. With your help we will
have enough money to continue this new
project. You may mail your donation
to P.O. Box 888, Woodville, TX 75979
or bring it by the Gift Shop during the
hours of 9-5 each day. We thank you in
advance for your support as we begin to
build this account.
The last of the school tours for this school
year was last Thursday. During the month
of May we were visited by the 5th grade
from DeQuincy, LA, fourth grade from
Dishman Elementary in Beaumont, and
Brandon Elementary 5th graders from
Lufkin. Earlier in the month we enjoyed
the first grade students from Corrigan.
They had such a great time that when
they returned to school and began talking
about the Village, the third grade students
wanted to come and arrangements were
made. We love to have students be so
excited about their visit that they return
home to talk about their trip. Who knows?
We may be helping to educate the next
generation of historians!
Perhaps because it is spring and the
weather has been relatively cool, we
have also had a number of senior groups

PROfessions:
Let there be Life!
Ever paused to wonder at this
strange phenomenon we call Life?
Just what is it, where did it come
from, and where does it go? The
big-brains claim that whatever exists can be scientifically accounted
for, detected, and analyzed. But ask
them about life, and about all you’ll
get is a cop-out such as “Life is what
animates matter”, which is no help
at all.
Are you perhaps wondering whether
I’ve finally gone over the edge? Everybody knows what life is – don’t
they? It’s what makes things alive,
makes the butterfly flutter by, puts the
curiosity in the cat. But you can’t see
it or touch it; you can’t even detect
it directly.
We have to wonder whether animal
life is any different from vegetable
life. I have read where seeds from the
Pharaohs’ tombs were planted, and
grew. But science has not yet found
a way to tell which of two seeds is
alive – except to plant them and see
which one grows. And life knows no
limits of size. The tiniest virus and
the mighty redwood both share that
elusive ingredient that keeps them
growing and reproducing.
Medical science has made some astounding discoveries just in our own
time. The DNA molecule displays
complexity beyond imagining; but it
is the fluid of life that allows its directions to be read and put into action.
And the disclosure of DNA pretty
well axed any ideas that science was
ever going to create life. I suppose
there are still atheist scientists who
reason that, since there is no God, life
had to begin via natural processes,
which ought to be reproducible. But
I am afraid they are hollering down
the wrong rain-barrel!
They say DNA has conveyed enlightenment as to how a particular
seed knows whether to become a
watermelon vine or a sunflower, or
how a bluebird egg knows better than
to turn into a chicken. But I don’t
think “they” have figured out just
how this comes to pass. Something
has to motivate that double-helix
molecule to contain its coded info,
and something has to enable its organisms to read that code and make
it happen. That “something” is life.
Astronomers and space nuts are continually talking about and reaching
for life on other planets, as though
the fate of humanity rests on that
prospect. I find that rather strange.
Even if there is life out there, what
are we going to do about it? There’s
no conceivable way for us even to
communicate with the ET’s, let alone
interact with them. I am continually
brought back to basics: we have all
we can handle, and more than that,
just interacting with the life on this
planet.
The Bible has a good deal to say
about life. We are given no room
for doubt that
it is part of
G o d ’s c r e ation. There
are strong
implications
that life is
somehow our
connection
Professions
with God, our
special gift
By
that enables
David
us to recogRust
nize him. It
liberates us
from the dictates of our DNA, so
that we have free will to make our
own choices. And by far the most
important of such choices is – life!
We are born with a temporary supply, but that supply is doomed to run
out eventually. However, God in his
magnanimity has made it possible
for us to choose eternal life, through
Jesus.
You can get into deep waters
wrestling with such matters, arguing whether eternal life is just an
extension of mortal life, or speculating whether it’s the same as the life
of angels. Are our lives tied up in
our souls? When we are born again
in the spirit, are we granted a new
kind of life? We read that our beings
consist of body, soul, and spirit – so
what’s the difference between soul
and spirit? I have to confess that I
don’t know, and can see mighty little
fruitfulness in pursuing such mindless, pointless quarreling. So let’s
leave that behind, and get on with
something that matters.
To me, life is the enabling factor
that allows this incredibly complex
organism to see, hear, smell, touch,
and taste; but far beyond that, to think.
I have it in me to create new things,
be they birdhouses, grilled cheese
sandwiches, songs of praise – or
PROfessions columns. I am able to
make a difference in this old world,
and am motivated to do that as the
opportunity presents. I have a direct
connection to the Holy Spirit of God,
who not only offers me knowledge
and discernment, but the power to
follow through. And to keep all this
in focus, he pours into me an endless
supply of love!
So there you are. I think our marching orders from the Holy Spirit are:
utilize, don’t analyze.

Speeches Evoke All Kinds Of
Audience Emotions
Most people shudder at the idea of
speaking to a group of people.
My column writing hero, Leon
Hale of the Houston Chronicle, recently wrote about giving speeches:
“Speech-making has always been a
trouble-maker for me.”
I’ve been privileged to hear Leon
a couple of times and he’s just as
homespun as he appears through his
column. And, just as enjoyable.
The first time I heard him was in
the mid-1960s. It was at a regional
press association meeting in Houston.
The appearance was labeled a “panel
about writing a column.” It featured
Leon and one Maxine Messinger. At
the time Leon was writing for the
old Houston Post while, if memory
serves, Messinger was a “night life
columnist” for the Houston Chronicle.
Being the gentleman he’s always
been, Leon let Maxine go first. Maxine was married to someone famous
in the business world and financially
well-off. She was glamorous and wore
an expensive dress. In those days,
everyone used typewriters. There
were no computers. Maxine laid out
several sheets of what was known as
“onion-skin” (read expensive) typing paper. She proceeded to give an
interesting and exciting account of
writing her column.
Then, Leon stepped up to the podium,
looking rumpled as you might expect
of a “country columnist.” He came
up with a scrap of paper as he said,
“Miss Maxine is sure a fine lady and
sophisticated. She gets to be in on all
the exciting Houston night life. Her
speech was typed on onion skin paper.
Heck, I wrote mine on the back of an
envelope.”
Of course, he got a big laugh. He
regaled us with stories about turning
his adventures such as driving all
over the Texas Gulf Coast to visit
with small town folks into columns.
While I wanted in the worst way to
follow in Leon’s footsteps as a columnist and humorous speaker, even
a college course on public speaking
didn’t help me overcome my fears
for years. Especially not with the
beginning I had with my first class
exercise. Wanting to be the world’s
greatest sportswriter, I decided to
be a radio sports guy interviewing a
famous “lady wrestler,” as was the
proper label in those days.
I asked classmate Leatha Hill to play
the part of “Leaping Leatha,” World
Champion Lady Wrestler.
Of course, I wanted to be well-prepared, so I compiled a list of questions
to ask. Being 19 and not understanding
the nuances of interviewing and also
being extremely shy, I deemed to stand
before the class with Leaping Leatha
and read the questions in the order I
had written them. Leatha was totally
ad lib.
WW: “How long have you been a
wrestler?”
LL: “Ten years.”
WW: “Are you married?”
LL: “Yes, I’ve been married for six
years and I have six children.”
WW: “What do you do in your spare
time?”
That brought the house down. I’m
told my face was scarlet for the rest
of the class period.
Subsequent decades of publishing
brought enough opportunities for
public speaking, most of them to
organizations similar to women’s
garden clubs and all they wanted to
know was how to get their stories in
the newspaper.
However, one of the most brutal
crimes in this nation’s history, propelled me onto numerous dais with an
entirely different kind of speech. The
CMYK
dragging death
in Jasper was
and is a very
emotional topic and evoked
such responses
from audiences.
Once I was
relating to a
group my first
remarks to
a Jasper audience, the
evening before
a public funeral for the victim. I told
of saying I didn’t know what I had to
offer the family but found they offered
to me the greatest example of faith
I’d ever seen. I related that I became
overcome with emotion and started to
my seat and the victim’s father stood
and hugged me as I left the podium.
Upon relating that, I heard a loud sob
from my audience. I looked in the
direction of the sound and saw this
6-5, 375-pound man sobbing his heart
out.
If you’re going to be a public
speaker, you’d better be ready for a
variety of reactions.

The Preacher
Says...
Journey Into
Fullness
by
Keith Bellamy
by
Gloria
Russell
Occasionally a dream will be so real that in telling it’s as though
I’m relating something that really happened. This particular dream,
although it was nearly twenty years ago is as vivid in my mind as
the day I found out my Dad had re-married.
I was sitting at the kitchen table when in walked my 7 or 8 year
old son, dressed in jeans and a red Little League shirt and baseball
hat. I had seen that precious face many times just like that. He
had cheese and crackers clutched in both hands.
I asked, “David, where have you been?” His response was quite
casual, “I growed up!”
Everything is a blur after that. I just remember I cried all day
long.
It’s been called “empty nest syndrome”. Mothers in particular
have to deal with a sense of loss when their children leave for college, the military or marriage. The funny thing is I thought I was
prepared. I’d heard Dr. James Dobson’s teachings and read books,
etc. Where’s the Christian counselor when you need him?
What I want to share is an important lesson I have learned first-hand. Life is filled with change—some welcomed, others needful, and
many painful. In each case it is vitally important to be spiritually
healthy. You must always seek to stay strong and steadfast in your
faith.
This means to keep your relationship with Jesus Christ your #1
priority. Focus your effort and energy on getting to know Him
more and more. In
2 Peter 3:18, we are instructed:
“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ…”
That’s the key. And remember Hebrews 13:5:
“…For He Himself has said, I will never leave you nor forsake
you.”
See you next week, Gloria

Lest we forget that this coming Monday, May
30 is Memorial Day we need to think about his
very serious subject!
Tom Brokaw was on Larry King Live a few
years ago, and he was telling about the rerelease of his book, The Greatest Generation. I
remember reading that book, and what a very
profound effect it had on me in understanding
that Generation of which my parents were a part.
My dad was the first in his family to be a part of
that “Great Generation,” having served in the
Submarines for 3 years. Dad never forgot those
years, although he preferred to not talk about
it. My dad wouldn’t even apply for his Purple
Heart or his other medals. I do have his Dolphins; that only true Submariners can receive.
Dad often said, “I did what I had to do.” Brokaw
mentioned the same thing, when he said most
of that “Greatest Generation” didn’t want any
honors for doing what they had to do.
My good friend (whom I have known since
the fourth grade) has made similar comments
as to his involvement in the war in Iraq and
Afghanistan. He said it was a job he had to do. He said the same thing back during the Vietnam
War when he was in the U.S. Air Force
Could there be another generation that will
pick up where the “Greatest Generation” once
was. Many of this new generation have paid the
ultimate by giving their lives. Sadly, some of
them will have broken marriages. As my beloved
mother once said, “War messes people’s lives
up.”
I remember the parades and the flags when
I was a little boy in West Virginia. Back then,
Memorial Day was a very important day. Mr.
Brokaw mentioned how those of that Greatest Generation are the ones who put the little
American Flags on the graves of veterans who
have fallen. A question was asked as to who
would pick up this tradition when the greatest
generation is gone. Most of them have passed
away. Very few are still with us.
An acquaintance of mine was visiting the
Ukraine a number of years ago, and he said he
did not know how special Memorial Day was
until his Ukraine host showered him with gifts,
flowers, etc while he was working there. Like
many of us, he had taken for granted how blessed
we are to live in the U.S.A. But Americans tend
to take things for granted. Supposedly 911 was
a wake up call for Americans. But was it?
I remember receiving “that letter” from Uncle
Sam, but I got to come home. However, many,
many souls have sacrificed their lives for us to
live the way we do. My wife and I went through
the National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia
many years ago. It sent cold chills down our
spines to see all of those countless graves. Freedom is not free! Freedom always requires
the shedding of blood.
So, what I want to say today is that I’m proud
to be an American! And I hope you are, too! Lest
we forget to take Memorial Day for granted let
us remember and thank God for all who have
served!

has always taken pleasure in the
beauty of the world, she loves
colors, both light and dark,
shapes, textures and tones.
She also loves the richness
of sound, aroma and dramatic
performances – all forms of
artistic expression. Lynn is

of “On Golden Pond”, she is
quiet an actress.
Merilyn McDonald: Drawing
and designing shows was her
first step to art. She became
interested in fashion design
and began taking classes after
moving to Houston. In the
mid 70’s she enrolled in a
beginner’s oil painting class
with the late Holmes Jones
in Beaumont. She found oil
painting very rewarding. After
retiring and moving to Ivanhoe
she turned a storage building
into a art studio and the dust
has not settled yet. Her favorite
subjects are country landscapes
and seascapes, but also paints
some still life and florals.
Our venue is watercolor, pastel, acrylic, oils and drawing.

We can take care of your emergencies, hospitalization, lab, and x-rays
right at home. Call us to see what services we can provide for you.
Out of the past and into the present..
In May of 2011, Tyler County Hospital Radiology Department, thanks to the generosity of the Tyler County Hospital Foundation, has taken
a step out of the past to catch up with the present. The Foundation has purchased a Konica ImagePilot CR (Computed Radiography) System
and a Candelis ImageGrid PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System) for the Radiology Department.
The CR system allows the Radiology Department to become digital. This allows us to do away with film images. The images are in the PACS
system, they are transformed directly over for our interpretation by the Radiologist which helps cut down the time it takes to get final readings. The physicians can also see their images on the computer instead of having to transport films to different locations. This cuts down the
possibility of losing films in transport. This also cuts down the amount of supplies and storage space we must have. This system also gives us
the ability to print images that are done now on CD instead of film.
The Radiology staff as well as all of Tyler County Hospital would like to express out thanks to the Foundation for the ability to advance our
department and better serve our community.

“Official Skills Competition of Major
League Baseball” will reach more
than 600,000 youth this year”
Major League Baseball Properties and Aquafina today announced the 2011 Aquafina Major League
Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run, the “Official Youth Skills Competition of Major League Baseball,” is
underway with over 4,000 competitions planned to take place across North America. For a second
year, a nationwide Girls Softball Division will be part of the program which allows girls to compete
and advance separately from the boys throughout the competition, including the National Finals.
In 2010, the youth skills program reached more than 680,000 boys and girls between the ages of seven
and 14, providing an integrated competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball
and softball skills. Aquafina, the “Official Bottled Water of Major League Baseball,” is in its fourth
year sponsoring the grassroots program following its sister brand, Pepsi, the “Official Soft Drink of
Major League Baseball,” which was the title sponsor between 2002 and 2007.
Pitch, Hit & Run (PHR) invites youth to demonstrate their skills, competing in pitching, hitting and
running abilities. PHR participants can advance through four levels of competition, beginning at the
local level, which can be hosted by organizations, leagues, or volunteers within a community, and
continuing through sectional and team competitions. All 30 MLB Clubs will host team championships at their ballparks on weekends from May 28 through June 26. The top competitors nationwide
from each age group (7-8, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-14) will advance to the 2011 Aquafina Major League
Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run National Finals during MLB All-Star Week in Phoenix, AZ.
“The Aquafina Pitch, Hit & Run program is a fun way for young people to improve their skills and
remain active,” said Lou Koskovolis, Senior Vice President, Corporate Sales and Marketing, Major
League Baseball. “Growing youth participation in baseball and softball is important to Major League
Baseball and our Clubs. Thanks to the support of Aquafina, the Pitch, Hit & Run program continues
to bring the games of baseball and softball to more boys and girls every year.”
“Aquafina is excited to once again sponsor the Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run program,”
said Jeff Dubiel, Vice President, Sports Marketing for PepsiCo Beverages Americas, which markets
Aquafina. “Over the years this program has inspired millions of young people to lead more healthy,
active lives - and have fun doing it.”
This is the 15th year MLB has run a youth skills program. Information regarding dates, times and
locations of local competitions as well as entry forms and other materials for the 2011 Aquafina Major
League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run initiative are available online at www.MLB.com/PHR

On the hitting side, Woodville’s
lead-off hitter Avery Tolar led all
hitters as she reached base three
times. Emily Brown reached
base twice for Woodville.
Faith Sirmons pitched a complete game for Spurger striking
out five Woodville hitters and
allowing just one earned run but
it wasn’t enough.
Skylin Spurlock led Spurger
with two hits and an RBI. Katie Crenshaw also reached base
twice, scored once and had
Spurger’s other RBI.

Kids and open pickup truck beds a
dangerous, and illegal, combination
In the state of Texas, it is illegal for a child younger than 18 years old to ride in the back of an open
bed pickup truck or an open flatbed truck or trailer. The charge is a misdemeanor punishable by a
fine of not less than $25 or more than $200. The exclusions are: if the vehicle is operating in a parade or an emergency; if it is transporting farm
workers from one field to another on a farm to market road, ranch to market road or county road outside
a municipality; operating the vehicle on a beach; operating a vehicle that is the only vehicle owned
or operated by members of a household; operating the vehicle in a hayride permitted by governing
body or law enforcement agency of each county or municipality in which the hayride will occur.
It is unsafe for anyone to ride in the back of a fast moving open bed vehicle and Tyler County officials
encourage residents to follow this rule for the safety of all the kids in Tyler County this summer. Fuller Attends
Seminar
Tyler County Treasurer Sharon
Fuller joined 250 county treasurers for the 39th Annual County
Treasurers’
Continuing
Education
Seminar at
the DoubleTree
N o r t h
Hotel in
Austin
April 1821.
Included in the program were
presentations on the Internal Revenue Service, economic outlook
for Texas and investment policies. There were also workshops
provided on human resource
development, collecting fines and
fees, unclaimed property and basic
purchasing regulations.
“Texas is one of a small number
of states that requires all elected
county officials to earn continuing
education credits,” explained Richard Avery, Director of the Institute.
“The Institute provides education
to county commissioners, judges,
treasurers, tax assessor-collectors
and county and district clerks
through programs conducted across
the State.”
County treasurers who attended all
of the sessions during the seminar
received twenty (20) hours of credit.
The annual continuing education
seminar was sponsored by the V.G.
Young Institute of County Government, which is part of the Texas
AgriLife Extension Service. The
Institute provides elected county
officials with information and technical assistance, and helps officials
complete their state- mandated,
continuing education requirements. To learn more about the
Institute visit http://vgyi.tamu.edu.

VFD Notes....
First thing I need to do is thank
everyone for their generous
donations during the boot drive
for the Tyler County Firefighters
Assoc. Our boot drive was a success and this will help us maintain
and upgrade our communications
system.
Since the last article, all the fire
departments in the county have
been very busy with wildfires. We have had one serious structure fire. The fire was in Ivanhoe
and the home has a lot of damage,
but due to the rapid response of
the Ivanhoe VFD, Woodville
VFD and Warren VFD, the home
was heavily damaged but it was
not a complete loss. In the past
this home would have probably
burned to the ground, but due to
better equipment, training and
a great mutual aid system, this
home was saved. The big fire during this period
was the Pipeline Road Fire along
Gore Store Road, approximately
7101 aces in Hardin and Tyler
County were burned and at least
40 homes were put in danger,
but all the homes were saved. The Dam-B, Fred, Spurger,
Ivanhoe, Wildwood, Warren
and Woodville VFDs and other
departments from Hardin County
responded this fire, and the other
departments in the county stood
by to cover while they were gone.
The firefighters were out at times
for 16 hours or longer and this
fire took over a week to contain
and it took its toll on firefighters,
equipment and money. Also, this
fire was so severe that it was more
than just the local fires departments could handle, the Texas
Fire Service with their equipment bulldozers, helicopters and
manpower were called in and
they were a big help in getting
the fire under control. I hate to
say this, but if this dry weather
continues we might be in store
for more fires such as this in the
months to come. Let’s hope for
some rain, just no hurricane. Another problem the county has
experienced is ARSON, this is
one of the most dreaded words
that a firefighter knows; they
know someone is out to hurt
them. The Colmesneil area was
the ones hit with this problem. Colmesneil VFD with mutual
aid from Dam-B VFD along with
the Texas Forest Service ran fires
for 4 days and nights and these
fires were not accidents. These
fires put all the fire departments
in that area under a lot of stress
and danger. So, be warned! If
you set any of these fires, “you
will have the book thrown at
you” as the old saying goes. A
reward has been offered for the
apprehension and conviction of
anyone setting these fires , the
reward is up to $5,000, so if you
have any information about these
fires please call the Sheriff Department and report this to them. Along with all this I believe the
Colmesneil VFD has probably
been the busiest during this time,
they have run quite a few mutual
aid trips to Angelina County and
Jasper County, this area depends
a lot on the Colmesneil VFD. As reported in the Booster two
weeks ago Colmesneil, Ivanhoe
and Woodville VFD’s each sent a
Tanker truck and 3 firefighters to
Polk county on a mutual aid mission and the other departments
around the county were put on
stand-by while these trucks were
out of the county. The fire was
in a huge mulch pile and a large
amount of water was used. I
was told that at least 30 different departments responded and
there was every type and color
of truck you could imagine. This
shows, if a fire department needs
help everybody will assist when
called.
On a sadder note, two of our
brother firefighters in North and
West Texas have paid the ultimate
sacrifice fighting the big wildfires
in that part of the state. Both of
these men were volunteers with
families and they will be missed.
The Memorial Day weekend is
approaching and the Ivanhoe
VFD will be holding their Annual Memorial Day Bar-B-Q
on Saturday May 28. Lunches
will be for sale starting at 10 AM
until it all gone. So, if you don’t
want cook and you’re looking for
a great Bar-B-Q dinner, come on
by, they will be at the front gate
of Ivanhoe on Highway US 69
South.
Well, until next time, let’s all
pray for rain, just not the amount
of rain the other parts of country
has received. Remember, the
Burn Ban is still on and an inch
or two of rain will not make it
safe to burn. Everyone please
be safe.
Turning Your
Passion Into
A Career
(StatePoint) There’s nothing
better than getting paid to do
what you love, but few people
know how to turn their interests
into careers.
“Turning your passion into a
career requires unreasonable and
unrelenting pursuit of your goals.
It’s about mapping out what you
want to do and planning a route
to get there” says Lee Witt, a
musician, corporate consultant
and author who successfully
changed careers in mid-life.
In his new book, “The BrickHouse Band: How An Ordinary
Mid-Life Couple Created A Business Phenomenon,” Witt reveals
how he and his wife, while busy
with full-time careers, founded
a band that became one of the
most successful corporate and
casino cover bands on the West
Coast. “It’s not enough to want
something; you have to plan
well,” he advises.
Know Your Destination - Many
people know what they like, but
few have clear visions of what
they want their lives to look like.
You have to know your destination before you can map out how
to get there. Does successfully
living your passion mean making
millions? Critical acclaim and
recognition? Helping others?
Figure this out first and then plan
your route. Start by making a list
of experiences you’ve had in your
desired field and any marketable skills that came from these
experiences. This will help you
be realistic about the resources
you have, those you’ll need, and

those you’ll need, and the actions required to bridge the gap
between the two.
Know Your Route - With your
destination in mind, create a
mission statement or vision plan.
This will help clarify your goals. “The most important question
Congratulations
Caitlyn!
We are so proud
of you!
Love,
Mom & Brady
you should always be asking
yourself is ‘Is what I’m doing
now advancing me towards my
destination?’” says Witt. “This
will help you prioritize responsibilities and commitments.” Most
importantly, beware the “shiny
object syndrome.” This happens when you’re traveling your
desired route and get distracted
by a shiny new idea, project or
person. When this happens, Witt
suggests you remind yourself
about where you want to be and
confer with your career map. If
this is an unauthorized stop, keep
moving!
Rest and Re-Fuel - While you
don’t want to get distracted from
your destination, you will need
to stop and re-fuel, regardless
of your journey. You may even
want to sightsee for a while by
settling into a comfortable job to
gain experience you need. But
passionate professionals know
rest stops are for re-fueling, not
unpacking. Your fuel for your
new, passion-filled career will
consist of the reasons behind it.
Is it for money? For love? To
serve the planet? Go to brickhouseleadership.com.

Optimism is the key to being successful
A
Tanner Hollier
Tiffani Getz
s soon as those graduation caps hit the
ground, new grads are
bombarded with that toughest
of questions: “What are you
going to do with the rest of
your life?”
Finding a job and building
a career can be challenging in
any economy and even more
difficult during tough times.
With today’s abundance of
career websites, job boards
and seminars, it can be hard to
know where and how to focus
your energies.
But good career advice is
eternal, stresses Jack Nadel, a
decorated World War II hero
who has made tens of millions
of dollars over a 65-year career.
“Regardless of the economic
news, actions of the government or the natural forces that
oppose us, we must build within
ourselves the capability to sur-
vive, prosper and feel good,”
he advises.
These days, Nadel is sharing
the knowledge he gained in his
long career with new graduates and other members of the
younger generation who are
looking to get ahead. And he
has made much of this advice
available in a new book, entitled
“Use What You Have To Get
What You Want.”
Here are some of Nadel’s top
career tips:
* Planning is as important
as hard work. Hard work is
important, but running around
in circles gets you nowhere.
With today’s high rates of unemployment, it’s best to focus
your search on jobs you are
most qualified for, instead of
applying for every opening in
your preferred field. You might
even consider spending more
time building specific skill sets
while job hunting. This way,
when the perfect job appears,
you’ll be a better fit.
* Talk to someone who’s done
it successfully. The Internet
abounds with self-appointed
“experts,” but consulting with
people who are respected and
successful in your industry is
sure to get you better results.
Tap into networks you may
have built from internships or
part-time jobs, as well as with
former teachers.
* Prepare well. Before a job
interview or meeting, repeat
this advice to yourself three
times: Listen. Think Positive.
Project Energy. After the meeting, get back to work -- either
by following-up on things you
discussed or by targeting your
next opportunity.
* Find common ground in
meetings. Try to connect with
the job interviewer on a per-
CMYK
sonal level. Even if it’s only
something as trivial as favorite
sports teams, finding common
ground can create a positive
atmosphere at the outset of
your meeting. This may help
you navigate trickier waters
that arise.
* Overcome your ego. Don’t
spend an entire cover letter listing your great accomplishments
and attributes, but fail to tell a
company what you can do for it.
“Having the right attitude
and being aware of the opportunities around you can make
fortune work in your favor,”
says Nadel, who employed this
optimistic outlook when founding a marketing promotions
firm, Jack Nadel Worldwide
back in 1951.

Is College Education For Everyone?
by Tom Pauken
Over the last week, college seniors across the country attended
commencement ceremonies
where they were lauded for their
educational accomplishments.
Such events are a time of celebration for graduates, their families
and their friends. But the good
mood will come to a quick end for
many students and their parents.
One study says that 85 percent
of seniors will move back home
upon graduation as they struggle
to find work that will justify the
high cost – in both dollars and
time – of their new degrees.
Meanwhile, a story in the May
6 edition of The Wall Street Journal reports that manufacturing
businesses across the country
are struggling to find employees with the math and science
skills and training necessary to
“operate and repair sophisticated
computer-controlled factory
equipment.” These jobs pay well
– some as high as $80,000 – yet
high school students are consistently pressured not to pursue
them by an educational system
that believes earning a college
degree is the only path to success.
Walter Gasper, one of the
students profiled in the Journal
article, had an interest in working
with machinery but was discouraged from pursuing vocational
classes by a school counselor
because he had good grades in
his college-prep courses. He
rejected the advice and at age
17 he became an apprentice at a
plant near Pittsburgh that makes
small, precision crafted metal
parts for ships and machinery.
Gasper was later wooed away
by a larger firm who needed his
talents and could offer him more
money. He makes $55,000 and
he didn’t have to give up four
years to attend college or take
on the high levels of debt that
saddles many young adults and
their parents.
Since 1990, the cost for college
has increased by more than 285
percent, a growth rate some three
times higher than inflation during
the same period of time. We’ve
long justified the high cost of college by citing statistics claiming
that over the course of a lifetime,
a degree holder makes a million
dollars more than those with only
a high school diploma. But a new
study by Mark Schneider of the
American Enterprise Institute
says that the difference is much
smaller. When you factor in the
cost of tuition and forgone wages,
someone with a bachelor’s degree makes, on average, about
$300,000 more in lifetime earnings than a high school graduate.
And the difference is less than
$200,000 for graduates of universities with low admission
standards.
And what about those who start
college, because they are told
that it is the key to a successful
life, but lack the skills it takes
to do well at that level? Career
counselor Marty Nemko cites a
disturbing statistic on this topic:
“Among high school students
who graduated in the bottom 40
percent of their classes and whose
first institutions were four-year
colleges, two-thirds had not
earned diplomas eight and a
half years later.” Are we setting
young people up for failure by
promoting the idea that a college
education is their only ticket to
the good life?
Texas community colleges play
an essential role in providing
skills training and I believe that
we need to place a greater emphasis on vocational and technical
education at the secondary and
post-secondary levels of education. Many young Texans would
be better off receiving training in
the skilled trades starting as early
as high school.
We must stop pushing a one-size
fits all approach to education
which emphasizes the goal of
every high school student getting
a four-year university degree.
The skills required for so-called
blue-collar jobs are impressive,
and they allow young workers
to make a good living and raise
a family. Having a recognizable
skill and using one’s talents to
fill demands in the workforce is
my definition of a “good job.”
It is high time we got over the
notion that a four-year college
degree is the only piece of paper
that indicates a person’s potential
for success.

America Home.
Go Fish!
Summer Events
Held Across Texas
Get your kids hooked on the
outdoors this summer with the
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s Go Fish! summer event
series. Free fishing lessons for the
young and young at heart will be
hosted around the state at selected
state parks throughout May, June
and July.
Classes and demonstrations
in areas such as basic casting,
fish handling, fishing rules and
regulations, and fly fishing are
offered to beginners and seasoned anglers alike. Loaner rods
and reels, bait and door prizes
are provided at each event, but
participants are encouraged to
bring hats, sunglasses and water.
All Go Fish! events begin at 9
a.m. with lessons given through
noon. A fishing license is not
necessary to participate in these
events. Families with children
5 and older are welcome, and
accommodations are available
for the mobility impaired. Each
participant takes away a fishing
fun pack.
Hundreds of children have
caught their first fish through the
Go Fish! program, formerly the
Family Fishing Celebration. Last
year, some 2000 people joined
state park staff and volunteers
at fishing events held throughout
the state. This year has already
seen 47 first fish caught through
the Go Fish! program. Come
on out and make your son or
daughter’s catch our 48th.
For more information on specific
Go Fish! events visit the event

Scholars
Examine
Future in
Medicine
Washington, D.C. - This summer Katelyn Henderson, daughter of
Jim and Bonnie Henderson, will
participate in the National Youth
Leadership Forum on Medicine
(NYLF/MED). Sessions take
place in ten cities throughout the
United States. Henderson was
selected through the academic
partnership with George Mason
University, which has been
recognized for three years by
U.S. News & World Report as
one of the top 10 “Universities
to Watch” in the country. By
attending the Forum on Medicine, Henderson will receive two
college credits through George
Mason University.
Scholars will join other high
school students from around
the country who demonstrate
academic excellence, leadership
potentential and an interest in a
career in medicine. Throughout the 10-day forum,
NYLF/MED will introduce
students to a variety of concepts in public health, medical
ethics, research and general
practice and will include site
visits to medical facilities and
clinics. Scholars will engage
in a simulation using problembased learning, an educational
method in which students will
be presented with a fictional
patient’s case history and must
diagnose and develop a treatment plan for the patient. “Each
student may very well be the face
of the future of medicine,” said
NYLF Dean of Academic Affairs, Dr. Marguerite C. Regan. “The National Youth Leadership
Forum on Medicine creates a
virtual classroom with hospitals,
clinical facilities and healthcare
professionals. By shadowing
key personnel, these students will
have a great opportunity to gain a
behind-the-scenes perspective on
a medical career. For additional
information, visit www.nylf.org.
More Americans
Want To Be Their
Own Boss
(StatePoint) More Americans
today desire to be their own
bosses than ever before, according to new research.
Last year, 565,000 new businesses were created monthly
by Americans, according to the
annual Index of Entrepreneurial
Activity issued by the Kauffman
Foundation. This is the highest
rate in the last 15 years. And other
polling found that a growing
number of teenagers would prefer working for themselves rather
than for traditional employers.
Many experts believe that
entrepreneurs and new start-up
businesses will help lead the
country out of the recession. “Every new business owner
believes he has an idea that will
change the world and make him
rich in the process. But a great
idea is never enough. The entrepreneur must back that idea with
sound business practices and
systems, strong management,
and the ability to grow an idea
into a company,” says Jim H.
Houtz, a serial entrepreneur of
40 years and author of the new
book, “Grow The Entrepreneurial Dream: The Ultimate Guide
To Business Success.” Here are some tips from Houtz
for those looking to start a new
business: * Develop a clear vision statement. It must be specific
enough to inspire performance
and guide daily action, yet general enough to adjust to changing
circumstances and new opportunities. * Continually evaluate the
markets you’re in. What will they
look like five years from now? More tips on starting or growing a
business can be found in Houtz’s
new book and online at www.
