Sparks fly at West Texas Weld-off
By Alex Rohr
BRAND Staff Writer
The clicks of strikers ignite
the hissing of silent gas. Purple-blue fire spurts from the
welding torch. Competitors
turn down the knobs, preparing to sever metal with flame
throwing scalpels.
With the smell of gas and
smoke in the air this scene
predominated the Hereford
High School welding shop,
most of Tuesday during the
6th Annual West Texas WeldOff.
“If you get one hand in this,
you put your heart out there,”
Hereford’s Edgar Maldanado,
18, said. “It’s not just a competition.”
One hundred thirty-six high
school students from West
Texas schools competed in
five events to test welding
skills using a variety of techniques. Students competed in
torch cutting, wire welding,
rod welding, tig welding and
speed cutting. All events but
speed cutting had an introductory and advanced level.
Wire, rod and tig welding
resulted in similar products.
Each student had to weld two

at the Six Annual West Texas Weld-Off.
pieces of plate together using
filler metal in the middle, the
wire or the rod.
First the student melts the
filler metal and moves the
plates together. Once it’s together the competitor torches
the middle portion again to
create an aesthetic and adhesive touch.
During downtime between
events students discussed
welding techniques and
styles.
“It’s pretty good because we
get to compete with students
from other schools. If people
are better than you then you
can learn from them,” Hereford’s Lorenzo Serna, 17,
said. “You can teach them,
and they can teach you stuff
too.”
Tig welding uses a different
machine that requires the user
to sit down rather than stand
upright. He then steps on a
peddle to give the machine the
power to mold together two
plates with a wire in between.
The machine was blocked
completely on all sides by
wooden barriers to protect
bystanders from its extreme
brightness.
“It’s more of a finer weld,”
Sammy Hernandez of Gearn
Industries, Inc., said, adding
that tig welding is used more
for appearance on custom
projects.
Hernandez, a former student,
had returned to help judge the
competition. He helps manage
at Gearn, off 385 in Hereford,
which manufactures oil extracting equipment used all
across the globe.
These events were judged
primarily by bead appearance
and penetration. A proper
bead will have even parallel
arcs, like half rings of a tree
trunk all across the top of the
plates. On the other side the
filler metal must have penetrated sufficiently to create a
durable piece, without bleed-
ing through the other side.
“If it’s all even and [arcs]
looks the same, that’s a good
weld,” Hereford’s Oscar Salis,
16, said.
Ernest Cabezuela, HHS
Career and Technology welding teacher and Weld-Off
organizer, could be seen speed
shuffling from event to event
to ensure that the competition
ran smoothly.
Next to the tig station a
competitor hunches over a
work table, mask or goggles
covering his face or eyes. His
bright light glows sharply,
melting metal to a molten
orange. A fountain of blueorange sparks springs in the
air as the bar weakens before
a chunk, the prize, clangs to
the floor.
The torch cutting event required the student to cut along
a straight, marked surface.
Judges determined the winner
by smoothness of the plate’s
surface, requiring a lack of
slag or excess metal. A jagged
or rough appearance lowered
the competitor’s point total.
Judges also awarded points
related to safety and use of
equipment.
A head-to-head molten
madness tournament, with a
bracket to match, made up
the speed cutting competition.
BRAND/Jae Gaytan
West Texas Weld-Off competitors concentrate to meld
together two plates using the tig welding method.
Two competitors, separated
by a sheet of glass, cut a practice piece across a straight,
drawn line before racing to
determine the fastest cutter.
The competitor whose scrap
clanged on the floor first,
moved on to the next round.
Hereford’s Jorge Guerrero,
16, explained the technique
that earned him fifth place
of 49.
“I do it a certain way so
it heats up both sides of the
metal,” Guerroro said. “I cut
it at an angle, so when I’m
cutting on the side then it
heats up the top,” which he
explained allows him to swipe
across the top to finish the cut
in one stroke, instead of heating it first.
A student who overheard
Guerrero’s explanation said
he was going to try the same
technique on his turn.
Students could compete in
any and all events, but could
also limit themselves to the
skills they are accustomed
to.
“It was my first time, so
I just wanted to do what I
knew,” Salis said. “Next year
I’ll be ready. I’ll know what to
do, what to look for.”
Students who participate in
these competitions and classes
come out of high school with
skills to help them in the real
world.
“They’re very talented people,” Ken Gearn, Gearn Industries marketing manager, said.
“There’re a lot of really good
young people that really prove
themselves. The program is
really good.”
“When I graduated, I already had a little experience, a feel for the machines,”
Gearn’s Hugo Flores, wire
welding judge, who took
welding classes under Ernest

A slowed, darkened
NYC begins to stir to life
NEW YORK (AP) — Two
days after superstorm Sandy
brought New York to a standstill, residents itching to get
back to work and their old
lives noticed small signs that
the city might be getting back
to — well, not quite normal.
Morning rush-hour traffic
appeared thicker than on an
ordinary day as people started
to return to work in a New
York without functioning
subways. Cars were bumper
to bumper on several major
highways.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg
planned to ring the bell at the
New York Stock Exchange to
reopen it after a rare two-day
closure.
Perhaps most promising,
though, was the people waiting at bus stops — a sign that
mass transit was trying to resume even as the subway system and some vehicle tunnels
remained crippled by Sandy’s
record storm surge.
Rosa Diaz, a 58-year-old
diabetic, waited for a bus
to take her to the Bronx so
she could she could keep an
appointment with her endocrinologist. She lives in the
Flushing section of Queens
but is staying with her mother,
who lives in a senior residence
in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood — with no power.
“It’s horrible,” she said.
“Thank God, I bought gallons
and gallons of water to drink
and to wash with.”
Even though workaday
life was slowly returning, there was little false
hope.
“Clearly, the challenges our
city faces in the coming days
are enormous,” Bloomberg
said Tuesday as officials
warned that power might not
be back until the weekend
for hundreds of thousands of
people accustomed to their
cosmopolitan lives.
While some bus service
resumed and some bridges
reopened, transit officials said
they couldn’t predict when the
subway would run again after
suffering the worst damage in
its 108-year history.
The storm’s deadly impact
grew grimly clearer as the
worst of it moved off: The
death toll rose to 22 in the
city, including two people
who drowned in a home and
one who was in bed when a
tree fell on an apartment. A
fire destroyed as many as 100
houses in a flooded beachfront
neighborhood in Queens,
while firefighters used boats
to rescue people in chest-high
water.
For the 8 million people
who live here, the city was a
different place one day after
being battered by the megastorm — a combination of Hurricane Sandy, a wintry storm
and a blast of arctic air.
Schools were shut for a
second day and were closed
Wednesday, too. And people
inside and outside the city
scrambled to find ways to get
to work.
In lower Manhattan where
p ow e r wa s o u t , t r a ffi c
streamed off the Brooklyn
Bridge but slowed as it approached downtown. There
were few signs that traffic
was being directed by police
through intersections with
darkened stoplights.
Buses have resumed partial service and are free,
for now. And the city has
modified taxi rules and encouraged drivers to pick up
more than one passenger at a
time.
Jeff Storey, of Goshen in the
Hudson Valley north of the
city, is a regular on the MetroNorth Railroad and has been
forced to work from home this
week. He may have to switch
to a bus until commuter rail
service is running again, he
told the Times-Herald Record
of Middletown.
For Jill Meltz, a 45-year-old
resident of the Upper West
Side who works in advertising, Wednesday was the first
day she felt good about going
out. But it wasn’t quite business as usual.

Perry to speak about
Women’s Health Program
GEORGETOWN, Texas
(AP) — Texas Gov. Rick
Perry plans to promote the
state’s new Women’s Health
Program that excludes
Planned Parenthood.
He will make an appearance Wednesday with state
Health and Human Services
Commissioner Kyle Janek to
talk about the new program,
which starts on Thursday.
The Women’s Health Program provides preventive
care and contraception to
poor women. Perry and Republican lawmakers have
worked to ban any clinic or
doctor from the program if
they have ties to an abortion
provider.
That rule ran into trouble
with the federal government, which said it violates
a woman’s right to choose
her own doctor. Official
said they would cut 90 percent of the funding on Oct.
31.
Perry announced the state
would fund its own program,
but critics question whether
enough doctors will participate.
Diplomat: Texas agents
should have seen people
McALLEN, Texas (AP)
— Texas law enforcement
agents were close enough to
a pickup truck to see it was
carrying people, not drugs,
before one opened fire, killing two Guatemalan immigrants hiding under a cover in
the vehicle’s bed, a diplomat
said Tuesday.
Texas Department of Public Safety officials have said
the helicopter crew believed
the truck was carrying a
covered drug load in the bed
and a trooper aboard fired to
stop it.
But after interviewing
seven surviving illegal immigrants, Alba Caceres, Guatemala’s consul in McAllen,
said there was agreement that
the helicopter was 450 to 600
feet away when the trooper
inside fired in an attempt to
disable the fleeing vehicle.
She said the trooper should
have been able to see the
people inside.
“They all saw it (the helicopter),” Caceres said. “All of
them, including those riding
up front because they were
stuck against the window.”

Cabezuela and HHS Career
and Technology teachers.
Students at the competition have goals to weld in
Hereford, across the globe,
underwater and even in
space. Several want to enter
the profession for the variety of skill, technique and
location options it offers,
but most stated the open
job market encouraged their
goals and talents.
“There’s a huge need for
more welders, and there
always has been. We’ve
never stopped hiring at our
company,” Gearn said. “We
have jobs open right now, a
lot of them.”
The event could not have
been successful without
help from other CTE staff
and students. Cosmetology
students organized brackets,
registered competitors and
handed out score sheets.
The girls even handed out
lunch that had been grilled
by Auto-tech’s Monty Smith
and Rodney Ferguson.
“As a CTE group, we help
each other. It doesn’t make a
difference what we’re doing.
We just help each other,”
Rhonda Romero, cosmetology teacher said.
“It kinda has to happen,
these are our areas of expertise,” Cynthia Peters, digital
media teacher, said as she
printed certificates for the
winners.
Gas knobs turned back the
other direction, fires sizzled
out and black smoke lingered
skyward. The arena emptied
for the awards presentation
in another shop.
Leo Gallardo tied for fifth
for Best Overall Welder, a
combination of all welding
scores, and Cutter Smith
placed third in Advanced
Rod Welding. A number
of other Hereford students
also placed in various
events.
“A lot of teams that came
in second last year are the
one’s who won,” Cabezeula
said in between managing
the cleaning and reorganization of his shop. “We’ve got
some work to do with all
the seniors being gone. I’ve
got some freshman that are
gonna be good.”

BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) — A
Bristol man is free on bond
after police found 30 stolen
street signs, two traffic barrels
and two traffic cones in his
house.
The Kingsport Times-News
reports (http://bit.ly/PCFYK4)
police spotted street signs
nailed to the walls of Daniel Cross’ home when they
responded to a call about a
domestic incident on Saturday
morning.
According to the arrest report, police saw an orange traffic barrel and traffic cone in a
corner and found more signs in
a pile under a child’s bed.
Cross told officers the signs
were given to him by a friend.
He said he was going to decorate with them.
Transportation officials still
are determining their value.
Halloween is a time for fantasy whereby spirits and monsters
reign, but the fantasy can be
interrupted when reality unnecessarily intervenes in the form of
tragedy.
By having and adhering to a
few simple safety guidelines, all
of the blood, guts and gore can
be relegated to fantasy where it
belongs.
Costumes:
1. Costumes should be properly
sized. Anticipate colder weather
by wearing a slightly bigger
costume that allows for warmer
layers of clothing underneath.
Additionally, costumes should
not be so long as to present a tripping hazard. Costumes should
always be constructed from flameresistant materials.
2. Shoes and Masks should
also be properly sized. Remember
that there may be a good deal of
walking or standing throughout
the night and comfortable, reliable shoes are a necessity. Masks
should not impair vision or restrict
breathing. If need be, expand
the holes around the mouth and
eyes.
3. Decorative contact lenses
should only be purchased with
a prescription through a licensed
optometrist. Contacts are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and are regarded
as medical devices. Any beauty
shop, costume shop or retail outlet
that sells contacts without requiring a prescription is in violation
of the law. Decorative lenses can
scratch the outer lens of the eye,
known as a corneal abrasion, and
are highly susceptible to spreading
eye infections which can result in
complete vision loss.
4. Never use face paint around
the eyes, regardless of what the
picture on the package demonstrates, and always wash off all
make-up and hair products before
going to bed as some may be toxic
if worn for extended periods.
5. Accessories, such as swords,
knives and the like, should be
short, soft and flexible.
Trick or Treating:
1. Never permit children to trick
or treat alone. Adult supervision is
a necessity.
2. Never let children enter a
home without being accompanied
by an adult and only approach
those houses with well-lit interiors
and exteriors.
3. Teach children to attract attention to themselves if grabbed
by yelling “they’re trying to take
me,” or “this is not my mother/
father.
4. Wear light-colored costumes
or line costumes with reflective
tape so that they are more visible
to oncoming cars.
5. Children should walk with
a flashlight to illuminate their
path and to increase visibility
and should stay on the sidewalk
whenever possible. If no sidewalk
exists, walk close to the curb facing traffic.
6. Children should only cross the

2. Flashlights or battery-operated candles are preferred to illuminate the jack-o-lantern. If a candle
must be used, do not let children
light it and use a fireplace-style
lighter.
3. Keep jack-o-lanterns off of
the porch on the actual night of
trick-or-treating as they can present a tripping hazard. Any yard
decorations should be well-lit or
removed prior to the arrival of
trick-or-treaters.
While these rules seem cumbersome, many simply require
a little common sense to remember. Safety and fun can
go hand-in-hand this Halloween. Be careful, it’s scary out
there!

under any circumstance should
children cross in the middle of a

vehicles, even those that appear to
be unoccupied.
8. Trick-or-treaters should stay
in well-lit areas. Never cut across
yards and never use an alley as a
thoroughfare.
Candy:
1. Only permit children to
consume factory wrapped candy,
never any homemade treats or
candy that is sealed by twisting
the ends.
2. While an x-ray machine
likely isn’t necessary, parents
should inspect every piece of
candy that the child eats. Look for
signs of tampering such as small
holes or an attempt to reseal the
package. The rule is: if it appears
suspicious in any way, make sure
to throw it away.
3. While inspecting treats, keep
in mind the potential for choking
hazards and remove, especially
with smaller children.
4. Feed children a light and
healthy snack prior to trick or
treating to reduce the temptation
of eating un-inspected treats.
Driving:
1. Do not use a cell-phone or
text while driving, no matter your
rate of speed.
2. Communicate with other
drivers by always using a turnsignal and use the hazard lights
when picking up or dropping off
trick-or-treaters.
3. Do not pass stopped vehicles,
they may be unloading children.
4. Watch for children crossing
the street in the middle of the
block. Although they should be
taught not to do it, some inevitably will.
At Home:
1. Do not let children handle
sharp instruments when carving a
jack-o-lantern. Convince children
to paint the pumpkin instead or

BI-DISTRICT VOLLEYBALL: HEREFORD VS. RANDALL
Randall eliminates Lady Herd in three games
By Skip Leon
BRAND Sports Editor
Volleyball matches are
not always won in the final
game.
More often than not there
are critical points during a
match to which a coach can
look and say that was a turning point. Such a juncture
came in the first game of the
bi-district contest between
Hereford and Randall at Tascosa High School Tuesday
night.
The Lady Whitefaces built
a 20-15 lead and looked to
seize the momentum and take
a 1-0 lead in the match. But
Randall battled back to tie the
game 21-21.
Now it was crunch time.
In the waning stages of the
game the Lady Raiders (3010) scored four of the final
six points to eek out a 25-23
victory. They went on to beat
Hereford 25-8 in the second
game and 25-21 in the third
game to advance to the Area
round of the playoffs.
The Lady Whitefaces, who
were co-champs in District
4-4A, finish with a 22-19
overall record.
Lady Herd coach Erin Bell
noted the importance of the
first game Tuesday night.
“Psychologically, it was
important for both teams,”
Bell said as the Tascosa gymnasium emptied out after the
match. “If we had won that
game I think we would have
taken some wind out of their
sails. It would have shocked
them and given us some confidence. It hurt us to lose that
game, especially since we had
a big lead.”
Trailing 13-12, Hereford
went on an 8-2 run. A Lady
Whiteface kill tied the score
and gave the serve to the local
contingent.
Sophomore Madison Valdez put the Lady Herd ahead
when she dug out a massive
hit and the ball went over the

net and landed between two
Randall players for a point.
Reagan Strafuss then blasted a
kill through the Lady Raiders’
block to make it 15-13. After
a Randall timeout, the Lady
Raiders hit a shot long to give
Hereford a 16-13 advantage.
Randall scored to regain the
serve, but promptly served
the ball into the net to make
it 17-14.
A Randall hitting error gave
Hereford an 18-14 lead. But
the Lady Raiders followed
with a kill to pull within three
points.
However, another Randall
serving error made the score
19-15 for the Lady Whitefaces. Alexis Garza notched a
kill through the Randall block
to cap the run.
The Lady Raiders forged
a streak of their own to take
the lead. Trailing 21-17, they
scored six unanswered points
to inch ahead 23-21. But a
serving error after a Hereford timeout pulled the Lady
Whitefaces within one point.
Randall then notched a kill
to move within one point of
winning the game.
But Hereford responded as
Macie White put down a kill
to make the score 24-23.
However, Randall finished
it off with a kill to gain the
advantage — both physically
and psychologically.
Randall jumped to an 8-5
lead in game two, but sewed
it up with 10 consecutive
points to take an insurmountable 18-5 advantage. Most of
the points came with Randall
libero Halee O’Con serving.
Randall’s aggressive serves
took their toll on the Lady
Whitefaces in the second
game. They had trouble getting a good pass into the air on
their service receives, which
made it difficult for the setter
to get the ball to the hitters.
“In the second game their
libero got back there on the
service line and we didn’t have
an answer for her serves,” Bell
said. “In the first and third
games we got her off the service line quickly and we were
in those games. Our passing
in the second game is what
killed us.”
Bell also said blocking was
a difference in the match.
“Our lack of a block, and
their blocking was very
tough,” Bell said. “Our blockers weren’t taking away part
of the court. That made it
draining on my kids on the
back row.”
The Lady Whitefaces also
committed an uncharacteristically high 19 hitting errors in
the match
Strafuss and White paced
Hereford with five kills each.
Megan Rodriguez had four
kills.
The back line defense was
led by Valdez with 12 digs.
Strafuss contributed 11 digs
and Harrison had seven digs.
Strafuss also recorded three
service aces.
Looking back at the Lady
Whitefaces’ season, Bell said
it was a journey over a hilly
road.
“I think our year was very
up and down,” the fourthyear head coach said after
the game. “We could never
hit a peak and stay there. You
could describe our season as
a heartbeat. Coach (Karli)
Morrison said that. We had
little blips, but we never went
up and stayed up.”

It’s time
to go to
SCHOOL!
One morning a mother
was trying to wake
up her son. “Wake up
now! It’s time to go to
school.”
“I don’t want to go to
school,” the son
replied.
SUDOKU
His mother said, “Give
me two reasons why
you don’t want to go to
school.”
MARVIN ®
“Okay. One, all the
children hate me. Two,
all the teachers hate
me.”
“Not good enough,”
the mother replied.
BLONDIE ®
“Fine,” the son said.
“Then you give me
two good reasons
why I SHOULD go to
school.”
“One, you’re 50 years
old. Two, you’re the
principal of
the school.”
