Agreement Paves Way For Building Permit To Stabilize Old Building.... OLD YORK BUILDING TO BE STABILIZED: The original York Institute building, which has stood in a continuing state of disrepair for nearly 30 years, will get a new lease on life through an agreement between the City of Jamestown, the Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation, and the State of Tennessee. With the issuance of a building permit from the City of Jamestown, work can now begin to stabilize the 80-year-old structure, which will then be “mothballed” until work can begin on a complete renovation to return the historic building to an educational facility. Indictments Returned, Pleas Entered In Criminal Court Criminal Court for Fentress County was held January 8th with Judge Shayne Sexton on the Bench, with a total of six true bills, or indictments returned, ten guilty pleas entered, and four probation revocation hearings conducted. Donald Hull pled guilty to the charge of Promoting the Manufacture of Methamphetamine. He was fined $2,000 plus court costs and was placed on probation for 3 years. Kristina Hull entered a guilty plea to the charge of Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, and was fined $450 plus court costs, and was placed on probation for one year. Roberta Wright pled guilty to the charge of Sale of Schedule II Controlled Substance and was fined $750 plus court costs and was placed on probation for 3 years. Bridgett Wright entered a guilty plea to the charge of Possession of Schedule II Controlled Substance and was fined $450 plus court costs and was placed on probation for one year. Nancy Rector pled guilty to the charge of Sale of Schedule II Controlled Substance and was fined $2,000 plus court costs and was placed on probation for 3 years. Stevie Wright entered a guilty plea to the charge of Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card over $1,000 and was ordered to serve 5 years in the Tennessee Department of Corrections.

According to a report filed by Fentress County Coroner Gary Peters, when he arrived at the scene, found the 77-yearold VonLanken some 50 yards from the east side of his home lying in a fencerow. The surrounding area showed a burn area in the fence row some 17 yards to the north of the body, with a burned area in the middle where Mr. VonLanken had apparently emptied the ashes from a fireplace. The Coroner’s report states that Mr. VonLanken and his wife, Norma VonLanken, had gone to the Fentress County Senior Center and later gone to Crossville, arriving back home about 4:30 p.m. She said her husband had cleaned out the stove and was not feeling well from the exertion, and sat down in a chair and then took the ashes out to the patio. Mrs. VonLanken told investigators that a neighbor had come to visit and she and the neighbor had gone downstairs to talk for a little while. Later, she looked upstairs where Royce had been and noticed that the light in the room was off. She then went upstairs and Royce was not there, so she looked outside she saw him on fire in the fence row. She grabbed a bucket of water and ran outside and poured some water on him, and than ran back into the house and called 911 for assistance. Mr. VonLanken, who reportedly had a history of cardiac disease, had been scheduled to go to VA Hospital in Nashville to have cardiac surgery as soon as he had some dental work done. Following an investigation by members of the Fentress County Sheriff’s Department, Coroner Peters, and upon examination by Dr. Mark Clapp, Fentress County Medical Examiner, the conclusion was that it was an accidental death. With the cardiac history and the fact that Mr. VonLanken was vigorously trying to put the fire out and had earlier experienced discomfort upon removing the ashes from the stove, the opinion of the investigators was that the patient suffered a heart attack and was unable to get away from the fire. The cause of death was lised at Myocardial Infarction, with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns to nearly all his body. days in jail and make restitution of $550, and was placed on probation for 2 years. Paul Reed III entered a guilty plea to the charge of forgery and was fined $300 plus court costs and was placed on probation for 2 years. Ricky Warden pled guilty to DUI (2 counts) and Violation of the Habitual Motor Vehicle Offender Bar (2 counts) and was fined $700 plus court costs, was ordered to serve 49 days in jail, and was placed on probation for 3 years. Scott Brewer entered a guilty plea to charges of Killing Big Game Out of Season and Hunting From a Road and was fined $100 plus court costs, was ordered to make restitution of $200, and a probation hearing was set for July 9. Indictments, or True Bills, were returned in the following (CONTINUED TO PAGE A-3) After more than a year of wrangling among various players in the saga of what to do with the old York Institute Administration building, an agreement has been reached which will allow the old building to be stabilized. Jamestown Building Inspector Bob Lane addressed the Jamestown City Council at their meeting Monday night, reporting that on Monday, January 5, representatives of the City of Jamestown, the State of Tennessee and the Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation met at his office to discuss the future use of the historic Alvin C. York Institute building and issuance of a building permit for the stabilization and hazardous materials remediation of the building. Present of the meeting were: Michael Birdwell, John B. Mullinix and Darlene Davis of the Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation; Mayor Gwenith Duncan, Alderman Dale Hicks and Building Inspector Bob Lane of the City of Jamestown; J. Alan Robertson, A.L.A., Assistant State Architect, State of Tennessee; Phillip D. Brannon, Director, Director, Alvin C. York Agricultural Institute; and H. Lee Barfield II and Brian M. Dobbs, attorneys for Bass, Berry & Sims, PLC. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the future use of the Building after renovation is complete. It is the intent of the Tennessee Department of Education, the Director of Alvin C. York Agricultural Institute, the Sgt. York Patriotic Foundation and the City of Jamestown to use the Building for classrooms and other educational purposes for the York Institute. Lane presented the council with a copy of the letter signed by all those attending, along with Robert W. Green of the State Department of Education, asking that the letter be made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Lane then told the council: “We came to an agreement as to what to do with the building, and that agreement is: *That the building will be saved. *It will be stabilized and put back in the dry. “Then the State of Tennessee is going to get on board,” Lane added. “The building is going to be rehabbed and again used as a school, which I think is the intention of the building all along. “Mr. Phil Brannon, YAI Superintendent, was in agreement, and will be involved with the engineering of the building when we get to that part of it.” “I think we made a good deal in good conscience with the State of Tennessee, the York Patriotic Foundation and the City of Jamestown,” Lane continued. “The county and city are in bad need of the classrooms. This will resolve that, as well as preserve the historic value of this landmark. “We’re announcing at this time that we’ve come to this agreement, and we’re asking the council to ratify the deal with a motion, second, and vote.” Lane then said. The Council then approved the motion unanimously on a motion by Keith Conatser, seconded by Dale Hicks. Lane was then asked about the timetable for getting the stabilization work done, and he said that there was 32 weeks for the stabilization, cleanup, and putting the building back into the dry, and then the State of Tennessee would get involved and go back to the original contract of approximately 4 years to complete the rehabilitation. Following the vote, Lane expressed his appreciation to the council, stating: “I want to thank this council. When we first started this, we were getting complaint after complaint about the situation out there, from bricks falling to the large number of pigeons-problem after problem, and parents being concerned, as they should be. “That’s all resolved in this agreement, if they can go in there and get something done fast. I think the fact the Council stuck together and everyone willing to work together had a big part in getting this resolved. I think there was some misinformation on the start of it. I was told several different things, as you were, but I think we’ve made a good deal in good conscience, (CONTINUED TO PAGE A-3) 11-Year-Old’s Death Caused By Bacterial Meningitis Picture left to right are: Nicole and Joe Acres, son Ryelin, Dr. Gilbert Ghearing, baby Kathryn, daughter of Brandy and Andy Todd.

The death of an 11-year-old elementary school student last week was determined to have been caused by bacterial meningitis. The community was shocked and saddened last week to learn of the death of 11-year-old Tiffany Swafford, who died Monday, January 5 at her home. While no foul play was suspected, a thorough investigation was conducted by the Fentress County Sheriff ’s Department and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, which included an autopsy by University Pathologists in Knoxville. Following the release of the results of the autopsy, on Thursday, Dr. Mark Clapp, Fentress County Medical Examiner, issued a statement, stating: “I know the community has been concerned because of this loss of a young life. Tiffany had bacterial meningitis. This was apparently a sporadic case, and we don’t feel that there is a need to treat in any way. There are types of bacterial meningitis which would require treatment of family members, but the case she had does not require that.” Dr. Clapp concluded by extending his condolences to the family on the loss of this TIFFANY SWAFFORD young life. Following is a copy of the finding by University Pathologists, P.C.: January 7, 2009 Regarding Tiffany Swafford, date of death January 5, 2009: The decedent’s cause of death is bacterial meningitis due to streptococcus pneumoniae which has been isolated from the culture. This is a sporadic case of meningitis requiring no prophylaxis for the family and/or community. Darinka Mileusnic M.D., Ph.D. In honor and memory of Miss Swafford, Fentress County schools were closed Friday for her funeral. (See obituary page for funeral services). PAGE A-2, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 2009, FENTRESS COURIER FCESO Meeting Held January 6th The Fentress County Emergency Services Organization (FCEO) met in regular session on January 6th and handled a number of important issues before adjourning early in the evening. Following a delicious meal provided by the Jamestown Regional Medical Center dietary department, the meeting was called to order by Chairman Gary Peters. John Ballard, Assistant Administrator at JRMC, gave an assessment of their participation in the mock disaster drill December 30, CHURCH OF CHRIST BIBLE CORNER Phil Adams, Minister Good day to one and ALL! I know that it may be a bit cold and blustery, but this is the day that God has given us and it can be a wonderful day if you will only let the Son shine through. Sometime you can learn the best lessons from the most unusual places. The story is told of a particular circus. You see, the clowns were particularly good and the last one of them was a little fellow wearing a very wonderful high hat. While he was bowing elaborately to a dignified woman, his hat fell off and an elephant sat on it. The clown gestured wildly at the elephant, but the beast sat still. He waved and shouted again and again, but the elephant never budged. Angrily the clown stepped behind the elephant and kicked with all his strength, and hopped away with a sore foot in his hands. Then, frantic with anger, the little clown turned back to the elephant and tried to lift him off the hat. Defeated and in complete despair, the clown sat down and started to eat peanuts. The elephant was interested in peanuts and got up, ambled over, and begged for one! What a powerful lesson! You can’t really accomplish anything for God by crabbing and kicking at the world or your spouse, child, neighbor or co-worker, but if you happen to be eating a bag of peanuts...... The Church of Christ here in Jamestown is a body of Bible-Based Believers. We want to serve God with all of our heart, soul and mind. In doing so, we are told to serve and love our neighbor as ourselves, and that is YOU. If there is anything that we can do for you or anyone you know, please let us know at 879-7815. Our Sunday worship times are 10, 11 and 6 pm and on Wednesdays at 7 pm. Won’t you come for a visit? Jamestown Church of Christ (931) 879-7815 saying that overall, they were pleased with their performance but was still “learning and tweaking” the system to perform even better in the future. Dwayne Tyree, Safety Officer at JRMC and coordinator of the hospital’s disaster plan, said that they had an excellent turnout of hospital staff members and learned a lot. He expressed his appreciation to everyone who participated in the drill, which is one of three mandated drills which the hospital has to perform annually. Following approval of the minutes of the previous meeting as presented by ESO Secretary Crystal Williams, Chairman Peters then shared an e-mail which he had received just prior to the meeting from Karen E. Lynn, Emergency Response Coordinator with the Tennessee Department of Health, who apologized for not being able to attend due to the TVA ash basin collapse in East Tennessee. She advised Chm. Peters that the state is not requiring each county to set up its own center to respond to anthrax exposure, bird flu, or any other emergency which would require the treatment of county-wide citizens in less than 48 hours. After discussing the needs to set up a point of dispensing, or “POD, as it is called, the group agreed to have an area-wide planning session at the Jamestown First Baptist Church on Thursday, February 12 at noon, with a luncheon to be served. All EMS providers, school officials and large businesses are being urged to attend this meeting. For additional information, call ESO Chairman Gary Peters at 879-3319. Mrs. Donna Hannifin, CoChairman of the Fentress County Red Cross Family Services Program, then gave a report of having served a total of 24 families in 2008 at the cost of $10,365. Total funding for this program comes from money contributed by Fentress County citizens and businesses, to aid local families which have lost their homes through a fire or other types of disasters. Billy Jennings, Laison Officer for families of Military personnel, reported that there are now eight persons in the system on a rotating basis, serving two to three persons per week by Internet, which makes for much quicker communication between families and their loved ones serving in the military. Jeff Galloway, EMA Director, then commented on the December 30 disaster drill, stating: “We were overall pleased with the response of all emergency personnel and their performance. We will continue to work to update our equipment and the services we provide to the area.” Jan Lee reported that all was going well with the Fentress Co. Health Council, and they were now working on plans for a mock traffic hazard drill for the schools to be announced prior to the event. Bro. Gale Hartley with the Fentress Co. Amateur Radio Club then reminded all the Ham Radio operators to get their MIMS certification completed as soon as possible, pointing out that this was of the utmost importance in regard to Homeland Security grants. After the group expressed thanks to Jamestown Regional Medical Center for the use of ther conference room and providing the food, the session adjourned.

POSTHOLSTAN-ADW-A-12/08 Duane Tyree shows the new expanded morgue facility at Jamestown Regional Medical Center to members of the local news media during a news conference last week. Hospital Expands Morgue Facility In their continuing commitment to provide the best service possible to the Fentress County area, Jamestown Regional Medical Center announced last week that they have expanded their holding morgue. In a luncheon meeting on Friday with members of the local news media, JRMC officials unveiled the new facility and explained its purpose. John Ballard, Assistant Administrator at JRMC, stated that the new morgue is the result of meeting which began several months ago, when the need to have expanded morgue facilities at the hospital became apparent. “After talking with the community and local funeral homes, emergency services personnel, and others, there was a need identified to have additional morgue capacity here at JRMC.” Ballard said. “We have built a lockable area and purchased a unit capable of storing up to 3 bodies in a private, secure facility. This will be beneficial in instances where we have to keep a body for longer than normal periods of time, such as an instance where a body is not claimed, or the family members are far away.” Fentress County Coroner Gary Peters also pointed out that there are times when a person dies and their next of kin cannot be readily located. “Sometimes we have situations where family members are not here, and no one is available to assume financial responsibility. We have to have a place to provide proper and secure storage in situations like this. “The law requires that they be held for 96 hours before they can become a ward of the county. There are also instances where a body is found that may need to be held for identification,” Duane Tyree, Maintenance Department Supervisor at JRMC, commented: “This has been an ongoing project for some time, and will be very beneficial to the community. We’re happy to have been able to provide this service for the community and for our staff, as well as for the funeral directors in the county.” Leonard Bilbrey, County Commissioner and Funeral Director, said he felt this will benefit the funeral homes, as well as families of those deceased in many instances, such as if the next of kin is out of state or otherwise unavailable: “This will allow the remains to be stored at the hospital in a private, safe and secure facility until arrangements can be made” he concluded.

I just want to thank the council for their support. If we had not been as adamant as we were, I don’t think this could have happened. I think they realized that we were going to use whatever means we had at our disposal, and the building could have fallen during that time. I think this was probably the best thing we could have done.” Lane was asked how to get rid of the pigeons, and he said he felt that once the building was sealed up where they couldn’t get in, they would probably leave, because they want a dry place to roost. “If they don’t leave, we’ll have to do something else to get rid of them,” he said. County Executive John B. Mullinix then addressed the council, thanking them for allowing the stabilization process to begin, stating: “We’ve saved a national landmark. I thank everyone, the City of Jamestown, Supt. Phil Brannon, the State of Tennessee, and everyone involved. This is something we can all be proud of.” Carolyn Cope, Director of Instruction at York Institute, also expressed her appreciation to everyone for their concern and cooperation in working through the process and reaching this conclusion. Johnny Wheaton then addressed the council on behalf the Boys & Girls Club, expressing the Club’s interest moving their operation from York Elementary School and wanted to lease 2 rooms formerly used by the Daycare at the Community Center, plus the auditorium. Following a brief discussion, Dale Hicks made a motion, seconded by Buster Stockton, to defer action on this request until next moth’s meeting for further study. The council then approved a motion by Stockton, seconded by Gene Holt to pass Resolution No. 857, supporting the Congressional Funding of U.S. Highway 127 Corridor Construction between Interstate 40 in Crossville and the Hoodtown Road south of Jamestown, Tennessee. They then approved the financial statement, showing total available funds of $1,606,352.78, which came on a motion by Stockton, seconded by Joan Bailey. After approving a motion by Hicks, seconded by Conatser to pay monthly bills in the amount of $544,062,51, which included the natural gas bill of $290,393.09, the session adjourned. One Injured In Accident A single-vehicle traffic accident in Allardt shortly before 5 p.m. on Wednesday, January 7 sent one person to an out-of-town hospital for treatment of serious injuries.

Wood was transported by ambulance to Jamestown Regional Medical Center, where he was treated and transferred to U-T Hospital in Knoxville for more specialized treatment of multiple injuries. Wood was charged with DUI, and will possibly face other charges in connection with the accident, which was investigated by Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper Bill Sewell, assisted at the scene by Sheriff Chucky Cravens and Chief Deputy Michael Reagon, the Fentress County Rescue Squad, the Fentress County Ambulance, and the Allardt Fire Department.

Pastures and live-stock go together, but that didn’t excite me. I was looking for something more costly, challenging and demeaning. What takes place in a pasture that meets that criterion? Why, golf, of course! Problem is, I’m about as good at golf as I am at preaching. Oh, I understand the basic principles of the game – if you can call it a game. It is more like a war when I do it. Object is to go from the tee to the cup on the green in as few strokes as possible. Experts claim to be able to traverse from tee to green on what I consider a fictional piece of real estate which they call a fairway. I prefer to golf in winter months because I am not as likely to get snake bit. Typically, when I emerge from the woods somewhere near the green, I look like I’ve been in a world war and lost. Poison Ivy does not hesitate to have me clawing at every inch of my body. Briars have torn away much of my clothing and skin. While flailing at what was terra firma, I have struck terror into earth worms and unintentionally mauled other critters small and large. And people for miles around hear my anguished cries of frustration as they echo off those majestic mountains. While in the woods, I come across the bleached skeletal remains of a multi-millionaire who refused to come out until he found his ball for which he paid a dollar and a half. Obviously, intelligent people go insane on this pasture. Congressman Lincoln Davis Sworn in for a Fourth Term in Congress Pledges Focus on Economy, Infrastructure, Education Washington, DC – On January 6th, 2009, the gavel sounded marking the opening of the 111th Congress. On that day, Congressman Lincoln Davis of Pall Mall, TN, was sworn in for his fourth term in the House of Representatives. Congressman Davis wasted no time getting to work and setting an agenda for the coming two year term. “We must get our finances in order and put America back to work,” said Congressman I only see one possibility of good coming from this. When I’m pasture-ized, the bottom drops out of my sinuses and they become more productive than a ghetto momma on welfare. Columnist Mike Deupree of The Cedar Rapids Gazette came up with an idea that may seem crazy, but it’s not! Oh, I know you finicky ones don’t want to read about nasal overflow, so we’ll call it by its scientific name – rhinorrhea. Scientists, businessmen and even lowlife politicians have been wracking their brains trying to come up with a potential source of energy – something that could be converted into fuel, but would not drive environmentalists crazier. Wackos, looking for something to protest, would not choose to have signs reading, "Save Our Rhinorrhea," or "Heck, no, we won’t blow!" Well, they might. Congratulations Congratulations to Kristie Allen who graduated from TTU with a degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She will be working at Cookeville Regional Medical Center, 4 East Cardiac Step-down Unit. We are so proud of you honey. Love, your family. Davis. “As I begin my fourth term in the U.S. House of Representatives, I will be working to see that getting the economy moving again is our number one priority by investing in infrastructure improvements and support for small business tax incentives, among other items.” In his previous term, Congressman Davis sat on the Financial Services Committee, where he worked to pass legislation that would ease America’s economic and housing crisis. The Financial Services Committee also gave the Congressman a strong voice against wasteful spending and the much talked-about Wall Street bailout. The Congressman comes into the 111th Congress with some new assignments. Recently selected for the powerful Appropriations Committee, Congressman Davis will be a strong advocate for Tennessee’s needs. “As a new member of the House Appropriations Committee, I will be fighting to keep our attention on better healthcare and education for hard working American Families and their children,” the Congressman said. Congressman Davis lives in Fentress County, and represents a district spanning 24 counties and over 10,000 square miles of Tennessee. He and his wife, Lynda, have three children and five grandchildren. They are members of the First Baptist Church in Byrdstown. My sinuses produce a couple of quarts of the stuff between tee and green. Think of how much we could accumulate if we could get more would-be golfers in the pasture – and came up with a way to reclaim it from handkerchiefs and tissues. Consider all the school children who are passing around infections. We get teachers to wring out little boys’ shirt sleeves a few times a day and voila, there it is. More than enough to run all the school busses. We estimate that a school bus would get about three mpg – miles per gesundheit. I have no idea how to go about refining it, but we have Tennessee Technological University. Now, "technological" means they do such rudimentary research as this project will require. I’m in favor of putting the refinery hard by the golf pasture. It may sound crazy, but it’s not. I hope it’s not too late to wish you a happy and prosperous new year. Congressman Lincoln Davis Announces Appropriations Subcommittee Appointments Washington, DC – Recently, Congressman Lincoln Davis announced his subcommittee assignments for the House Appropriations Committee in the 111th Congress. The Congressman will serve in the Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies and the Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development. “This is a great opportunity for my district and for Tennessee as a whole,” said Congressman Davis. In the last Congress, Representative Davis was an advocate for Tennessee’s needs in the Farm Bill as a member of the House Agriculture Committee. With his new role on the Agricultural Appropriations Subcommittee, Congressman Davis will be able to continue his advocacy for farmers, rural Tennesseans, and assuring our country has a healthy and safe food supply. Congressman Davis is also pleased with his appointment to the Energy and Water Subcommittee, which has jurisdiction over the Department of Energy and the Appalachian Regional Commission. “This assignment will allow me to have an impact on the 52 Tennessee counties that are part of the Appalachian Regional Commission, research at Oak Ridge and Tennessee’s scientific community as a whole," said Congressman Davis.

PAGE A-8, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 2009, FENTRESS COURIER It is good to be back home and at the computer writing my column again. As I told you last week, I had a heart attack last Friday morning. I almost waited too long because the pain was in my neck, jaws and ears then it moved into my chest. The doctor said he just happened to be at the hospital when I was brought in. I told him that he didn't just 'happen' to be there but God had everything in place for me. He said "I guess you're right and you got here just in time." A stent was put in the blocked artery. I feel pretty good but a little tired. I want to thank everyone who called, or said a prayer or sent a card. Thanks also for the food and flowers. One of the guys who sings in the choir with me at church, emailed me and said when everyone else got through cooking for me that he would cook me some 'real good' food. I e-mailed him back and thanked him for the offer and told him that I was on a cardiac diet and asked him if he knew how to cook cardiac. He said "Yes, you cover it in chocolate." I guess I'll be calling him. Today's recipe is one of those hearty comfort foods. It may not be cardiac but it will sure warm you up on a cold day. You can make ahead for those hectic week-nights. Just add a salad and suppers on the table.

Not pictured, On December 5, 2008, the U.S. Department of the Interior published new regulations in the Federal Register that govern the carrying of concealed weapons in areas administered by the National Park Service and on U.S. Fish and Wildlife refuges. These regulations came into effect on January 9, 2009. Further information on the new regulations can be found at: http://www.doi.gov/issues/Final %20Rule.pdf. In the Obed Wild and Scenic River, individuals who hold valid permits to carry a concealed weapon issued by the State of Tennessee, or by states which has reciprocal agreements with Tennessee, may also carry those weapons within the park. Hunting regulations within the park are not affected by this rule change. Weapons are currently prohibited in Federal facilities under 18 USC Section 930. This includes the Obed WSR Visitor Center and maintenance buildings. The new regulations will not change this prohibition. Please call the park at 423346-6294 with any questions regarding the new regulations. The Tennessee State Fire Marshal, Leslie A. Newman, is reminding Tennesseans that a working smoke alarm can at least double the chances of surviving a residence fire. Newman urges all Tennesseans to have working smoke alarms in their homes. Photoelectric alarms, triggered when smoke from a fire blocks a light sensor, are more responsive to smoldering fires; ionization alarms, which are triggered when smoke prevents a chemical reaction in a sensor, are more responsive to fires with smaller combustion particles. Regardless of the type of smoke alarm, it is crucial for Tennesseans to use working alarms in their homes. It is important to replace batteries regularly, even if they appear to be working fine. Twice a year is recommended. “Smoke alarms save lives – and a working smoke alarm is the best insurance against becoming a casualty in a house fire,” said Newman. “Firefighters too often find that in fatal fires, a home had smoke alarms but their batteries had been removed.” Most home-fire casualties occur at night when people are sleeping. The smoke and toxic gases generated by a fire can cause you to sleep more deeply, making the chances of survival slimmer. Here is what some experts recommend regarding smoke alarms: • Smoke alarms should be installed in every sleeping room, outside of every sleeping area and on each level of the home. Make sure that everyone can hear the alarm and knows what it sounds like. • Smoke alarms need to be maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions. • Test the alarms monthly and replace batteries at least twice a year. The beginning and end of daylight saving time are good times to replace them. • The smoke alarms themselves should be replaced every 10 years. • Have a fire escape plan and practice it with your children. • When the smoke alarm sounds, exit the home at once and meet at a set location.

The teams split on both nights, with the Lady Buffaloes taking wins to remain undefeated, while the Buffaloes gave solid performances, but came up on the short end of both contests. In the game with Grace Baptist, the Lady Buffaloes quickly jumped out to a big lead and led 27-6 at the end of the first period, and never looked back, pulling out to a 44-9 halftime advantage, 56-16 at the end of the third period, and cruising to a 50-point win, 72-522.

Kaitlyn Eldridge and Winter Simpson shared scoring honors for Grace with 6 points each. In the boys’ game, the Buffaloes were a little slow getting started, and fell behind in the first period 17-8, as Patrick Shaughnessy pumped in 8 points for Grace. The Buffaloes gained a point in the second period, outscoring their hosts 17-16, but again fell behind in the third as Grace held a 14-7 scoring advantage.

Brandon Upchurch led all scorers with 28 points, with Nathaniel Clark adding 8, Steven Jones 4, Nathan Young and Anthony Stephens with 3 each, and Dakota Deaton adding 2. Grace was led by Shaughnessy with 21 points, with Fuquan Harper adding 12 and Terrell Church with 9 points.

Stone continued to pull away through the third period, holding a 48-25 lead going into the final frame, and although the Buffaloes came back with a strong fourth quarter, outscoring the Panthers 22-9, they could not overcome the deficit, and fell 57-47. Nathaniel Clark led the Clarkrange scoring with 13 points, with Brandon Upchurch adding 11 and Steven Jones 10, with Jake Alderman adding 6, Nathan Young 5, and Dakota Deaton 2 points.

The local Rotary Club, in conjunction with Rotary International, will be contributing the first $5,000, and are asking local businesses and community leaders to help fund the remainder of the $18,000 project cost by purchasing a sign which will be installed in the outfield. For $375.00, each contributor will receive a 4 foot by 4 foot sign which will be placed on the outfield fence for a 3-year period. After the initial 3 years, contributors will be able to renew signage on a yearly basis. Currently, there are 30 spaces still available, and may be obtained by contacting any member of the Jamestown Rotary Club or York Institute by sending a donation to: Jamestown Rotary Club, P.O. Box 1004, Jamestown, TN. 38556.

Successor Trustee By: Shellie Wallace (1-14-21-28-3tc) NOTICE TO FENTRESS COUNTY SCHOOL PARENTS NOTICE TO PARENTS OF ALL FENTRESS COUNTY SCHOOL STUDENTS CONCERNING SCHOOL RECORDS The Fentress County Schools collect and maintain student records to provide for the growth and development of individual students, to provide information to parents and authorized staff, and to provide a basis for the evaluation and improvement of school programs. Section 438 of the General Education Provisions Act, as amended, sets our requirements designed to protect the privacy of parents and students. Specifically, the statute governs disclosure of records maintained by education institutions which receive federal funds. In brief, the statute provides that such institutions must provide parents of students access to official records directly related to the students and an opportunity for a hearing to challenge such records on the grounds that they are inaccurate, misleading or otherwise inappropriate, that institutions must obtain the written consent of parents before releasing personally identifiable data about students from records to other than a specified list of exceptions; that parents and students must be notified of these rights transfer to students at certain points; and that an office and review board must be established. The office is the Family Policy Compliance Office of the U.S. Department of Education. They will investigate and adjudicate violation and complaints of this section. The primary source of access to most records is the elementary, secondary, or special school in which a student is enrolled. The principal is the authorized custodian for these records. Records pertaining to the disciplinary hearings and suspensions are maintained in the Office where the proceedings occurred. The Special Education Department at Fentress County Board of Education maintains records for children in the Special Education Programs, and these records are regulated by the Director of Special Education. If a student moves, the student record will be sent to the new school upon written request from the school. If you need any assistance from Fentress County Board of Education, please call 931-8798447 and ask for Della Cargile or Gerald Huddleston. A complete list of all records maintained along with locations, and authorized custodians is on file and is available for inspection.

BOX 340 BYRDSTOWN, TN 38549 931-864-6208 (12-31; 1-7-14-3tc) CITIZENS OF FENTRESS COUNTY: Printed below is the proposed school calendar for the 2009-2010 school year. The Fentress County Board of Education is requesting public comment. The comment period will be open January 14, 2009 through January 27, 2009. The calendar will be submitted to the board for final approval at the regular board meeting on February 2, 2009. This calendar is very similar to those for the last few years. We start immediately after the 127 Corridor Sale, include a week for fall break, two weeks at Christmas and a week of spring break. There must be 180 days for student attendance including three short days which are taken on registration day, homecoming at YAI and the last day of school. The calendar can be adjusted for either an earlier start or a later start. Whatever is chosen will necessitate changes else where. For example, a later start will either put us dismissing school later in the summer or deleting some of the breaks. We have historically tried to dismiss school prior to Memorial Day if at all possible. Note that spring break is later than usual due to the TCAP testing window being moved two weeks earlier in order to meet federal government test score reporting deadlines. Comments may be directed in writing to: Randy Clark 1011 S. Old Hwy. 127 Jamestown, TN 38556 Also: Comments may be sent via [email protected]. e-mail to Randy Clark; We would like to have input from those of you who like this arrangement as well as from those of you who wish to see something changed.
