Borger News-Herald Moving forward while remembering the past...Serving Hutchinson County since 1926 Friday, November 6, 2015 Vol. 90, No. 264 Inside Today Sanford-Fritch, Borger, and West Texas will all be in action tonight across the area with playoff implications for multiple teams, pg, 8. SMILE of the day Borger Since 1926 News-Herald Photo by Don Rice ASHLEY CANTER Local Weather From StormSearch 7 High - 63° Low - 31° Temperatures will continue to cool as we head into the weekend, so expect another night of at or below freezing temperatures for many areas. A cold front passing through this afternoon will bring another round of chilly air, reinforcing our cool temperatures. This front will remain dry, but will drop high temperatures to the 50s Saturday. A quick warmup will begin as we start the next work week with temperatures climbing to the 60s by Monday and the 70s by Tuesday. It won’t last long, though! A cold front Tuesday night will bring cool temperatures once again as well as gusty winds and a slight increase in cloud cover. 50¢ Community to welcome Medal of Honor recipient at Saturday veterans banquet By Tabitha Flemming [email protected] Tomorrow marks a milestone for local organizations that have come together to show their gratitude to the Americnas that have sacrificed for freedom. The Benevolent Protective Order of the Elks, The Vietnam Veterans of America, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion and their auxiliaries along with citizen volunteers will host the 10th Annual Hutchinson County Veterans Appreciation Banquet tomorrow evening beginning with a social hour at 3:30 p.m. at the Borger Elks Lodge, located at 200 Opal Street. Ten years ago a small group of dedicated individuals joined forces to give back to the men and women who served their country in times of war and times of peace. Just as the event budget has grown from a meager $400 to several thousands, so has the reach of the event. This year it is expected to be attended by upwards of 300 individuals. With previous special guests such as General Dale Hoover, Warren Chisum, Four Price, and Scot King, who raised awareness for wounded veterans with a cross country bicycle ride, this veteran-focused gathering will continue in that proud tradition with a Colonel James P. Fleming who will be delivering the keynote address. The banquet is a completely free, family friendly event. “I want to make it perfectly clear,” said Clayton Norton, committee chairman and U.S. Army Veteran, “this isn’t just for veterans and their families, this is for anyone who wants to show their support for veterans and be a part of this evening General Dale Hoover, (above) a veteran of the U.S. Army, delivered the key note where we honor them, thank them, and treat them address during the Veterans Appreciation Banquet Ceremony last yer. His lively with the respect they have earned.” spirit and sense of humor made for an entertaining speech. This year’s speaker, Colonel James P. Fleming of the U.S. Air Force who was awarded the Medal of Honor is also greatly respected and highly anticipate.

Brancheau, current Assistant District Attorney for the 84th Judicial District, has announced he is seeking the office of the 84th District Judge in the Republican primary on March 1st, 2016. The 84th District, encompassing Hutchinson, Hansford, and Ochiltree Counties, is currently held by Borger resident, Judge Bill Smith, who is retiring at the end of 2016. Brancheau was raised on a small ranch outside Greenville, Texas where he was taught the value of hard work and that “everything worthwhile is worth working for.” This hard work and discipline led to a full athletic scholarship to Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee where he represented the Commodores on the football field from 2000-2003, earning his B.S. in 2004.

Two proposed resolutions were the topic of much discussion at the meeting and the work session prior. Both resolutions concerned the issuance of certificates of obligation, or in simpler terms, loans. A talked about, and as of yet unfunded MultiPurpose Event Center was the subject Resolution R-019-15 which would allow the transfer of $750,000 to the event center account at the Amarillo Area Foundation.

Brancheau’s career in the 84th district began as a small general practice attorney, splitting time between an office in Perryton and one in Borger. During that time, Brancheau handled a variety of cases including criminal defense, family law, and general litigation. After success as a criminal trial attorney, Brancheau was offered the job as the Assistant District Attorney for the 84th District. He has represented the State of Texas and the citizens of the 84th district in multiple criminal jury trials since January 2013, notably obtaining verdicts of 75 years for a defendant convicted of methamphetamine possession and a life without parole sentence for a defendant convicted of murdering a small child. He says the 84th District Courtroom is where he feels most comfortable. “As a former defense attorney and now as a prosecutor, I have a very unique prospective. I’ve represented individuals’ best interests in the courtroom, as well as the interests of the state and the community. I’ve been lucky enough to practice a very broad cross section of the law, from drafting simple wills, trying child custody cases all the way up the scale to prosecuting death penalty cases.” Brancheau believes that the future 84th District Judge needs to have proven trial experience, a balanced perspective, and a commitment to the integrity of the court and the conservative family values of the district. Brancheau is married to Jenny Brancheau, a working mother, and has two young boys, Brady, 3, and Brooks, 1. The Brancheaus are members of St. John’s Catholic Church in Borger where Curt is active with the Knights of Columbus. Brancheau has been on the board of the Hutchinson County United Way since May of 2012, serving as president from 2013-2014. He is also an active volunteer and supporter of the local American Cancer Society. Brancheau encourages everyone to view his website, www.curtbrancheau.com, and to contact him with any questions you may have about his campaign.

Currently there is no softball specific complex within the city of Borger, which, like many towns in the Texas panhandle, places a great deal of importance on participation and the support of youth sports. It is with youth in mind that a new softball 4-plex park was proposed. The resolution before council would have allowed the issuance of $6.5 million in certificates of obligation to pay for the park. City Manager Eddie Edwards explained to council that the debt payments the city makes wouldn’t be increased a great deal, but that the length of time that the city would continue to make payments would increase. In other words, the city would remain in debt for longer. Mayor Robert Vinyard spoke in favor of the complex, and all council members expressed their desire Veterans Banquet Continued from page 1 The evening begins at 3:30 p.m. with a social hour. At 4:30 p.m. as guests take their seats, the colors will be presented by the Borger Elks Honor Guard with the leadership of World War II Veteran Joe Childress, and Korean Conflict Veteran Joe Martinez. A special Prisoner of War and Missing in Action [POW/MIA] Ceremony will honor those who are gone but not forgotten. The keynote address will be delivered by Colonel James P. Fleming, a veteran of the U.S. Air Force one of only a few distinguished of service members that received the Congressional Medal of Honor. Colonel Fleming will arrive in Amarillo Saturday afternoon and lead by a cavalcade of VFW members on motorcycle towards Borger. As the ceremony draws to an end, near 6 p.m. Great Western Dining, of Borger, with the help of local Boy Scouts and other volunteers will serve the Glazed Ham or Roasted Chicken dinner. In addition to delicious food, those in attendance will receive a medallion, or coin, that was specially designed and crafted for the event as a lasting keepsake. to provide the youth with top notch facilities. Council member Charles Gillingham pointed out that the complex could lead to additional revenue for the city in the form of tourist dollars during tournaments or other events at the complex. Again McClellan dissented, and presented the argument that the current economic state was simply not strong enough to support such a project. In McClellan’s opinion, an increase in tourist dollars was not enough to offset the damage to the local economy during a downturn in the oil market. Local resident, Josh Brown, addressed council briefly after by Mayor Vinyard. “What I would like to know,” said Brown, who has a degree in public administration, “is how each of you feels about letting the people decide.” Unfortunately, as Mayor Vinyard told the crowd, because that question or issue was not part of the original meeting agenda, there would be no such discussion. Council members were restricted to voting either for or against the measure. When all was said and done, the resolution providing $6.5 million for the Softball complex failed to pass with a split vote in which Vinyard and Gillingham were the only supporters. The final meeting of the banquet committee last night at the Borger Elks Lodge was one of the most well attended of the year, with over 30 people in attendance. Always focused on expressing gratitude and respect, Chairman Clayton Norton reiterated what he had stated at previous meetings, that regardless of the number of meetings a volunteer had attended, their voice would always be heard, their vote would always count, and everyone would get a chance to speak. This conglomeration of individuals from multiple organizations and walks of life is a unique team, yet it is one that has withstood the test of time, at a time when support for the nation’s soldiers has been nationally low. These dedicated volunteers have come a long way from that first banquet and even though the faces across the table have changed as beloved veterans have passed away, their memories continue to live on in the hearts and minds of everyone, especially the committee. Those mmemories will serve to motivate the Hutchinson County Veterans Appreciation Banquet Committee members as they carry out their mission to show the nation’s defenders the duty, loyalty, honor, and respect that they have more than earned.

On offense, the Comanches will have to look out for quarterback Jack McBryde and running back Gage Brooks. The duo of McBryde and Brooks lead the Elk’s pistol offense. Wide receiver Ty Hess can also be a factor in Stratford’s offensive attack. The most important piece of the Elk’s football team is two-way player Tanner Stone. Stone plows the way for the running game, and is a force on defense. Stratford has once again played second fiddle to the defending state champion, Canadian Wildcats this season, and could very meet them again in the later rounds of the playoffs again this season. The Comanches can take many positive things out of this season. West Texas scored with ease this year, so the offense made great strides. The defense is still young, and will only improve.

Chapter two of the Eagles versus Eagles battle will commence tonight with much on the line. The Eagles find themselves in an interesting situation with a 2-2 record in district play. Roosevelt and Highland Park both have one district win, so if Sanford-Fritch loses tonight, and Highland Park beats Tulia there will be a three-way tie with only Rangers hire new pitching, hitting coaches to complete staff ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Rangers have hired former reliever Doug Brocail as their pitching coach and Anthony Iapoce as hitting coach. With those moves and the promotions of Triple-A coaches Brad Holman and Justin Mashore, the Rangers completed manager Jeff Banister's on-field staff for next season. Brocail was Houston's pitching coach from 2011-13, then a special pitching adviser for the Astros in 2014. He was pitching coach at Double-A Corpus Christi last season. Iapoce spent the last three years overseeing the Chicago Cubs' minor league hitting program. Holman will be bullpen coach for the Rangers after three seasons as pitching coach at Triple-A Round Rock. Mashore will be the assistant hitting coach in the majors after the last two years as Round Rock's hitting coach.

The Eagles will have to watch out for the one-two punch duo of quarterback Colt Garrett and running back Isaia Montgomery. The Roosevelt running game is the key to their success, so containing Montgomery will be essential for the Eagles. However, the most dynamic player on Roosevelt’s team is probably wide receiver Ty Hess. On defense, the Roosevelt Eagles’ leader is defensive back Jacob Garcia. Garcia is also a very important part of the Roosevelt offense, and is the most versatile player they have. The Eagles will approach this contest tonight knowing they control their own fate, so look for them to get the job done against a vulnerable Roosevelt defense.

Watt isn't happy with the 3-5 record of the Houston Texans. Still, the star defensive end can't help but be encouraged because despite their first-half struggles, they're tied with the Colts for first place in the AFC South. "You're sitting here at your bye week, halfway through the year, with everything in front of you," Watt said. The Texans regrouped for a win over the Titans last week after an embarrassing blowout loss to Miami in Week 7. Watt said the team had to block out the negativity of what happened in that game to move forward. "It's just a matter of not listening to everybody out there who thinks you should be packing it in or thinks it should be over and who has this kind of end of the world mentality," Watt said. "It's just a matter of believing in yourselves and we did that all last week, when most people think we shouldn't have." Houston's problems in the first half of the season largely stemmed from its inconsistency at quarterback. Brian Hoyer won the job out of camp, but was benched during the season opener after a terrible start. Ryan Mallett took over, but he had a tough time as well and Hoyer soon had the job back. The Texans had to sign T.J. Yates last week after cutting Mallett after he missed the team's charter flight to play the Dolphins and caught a commercial flight to meet the team in Miami. After a winding NFL career filled with ups and downs, Hoyer seems undaunted by the challenges he faced in the first half of the season. "Things didn't always go the way we wanted them to in the first eight, but we're in a position to go out and do some really good things in the second half of the season," he said. "I'm fortunate to be the guy that's going to be able to do that. One player who didn't seem to be affected by Houston's quarterback woes is receiver DeAndre Hopkins. The third-year player has stepped into the spotlight this season with Andre Johnson gone to play for the Colts. Hopkins is second in the NFL with 870 yards receiving and his six touchdown catches are tied for second in the league. "His ball skills are tremendous and he's learning the offense," receivers coach Stan Hixon said. "He's playing multiple positions in the offense, so he knows what everybody's doing, which helps him a lot. He is just gaining a lot of confidence along the way." 274-5000 701 n.

(courtesy photo) By EVAN HAYS Sports Editor [email protected] The Borger Bulldogs season will be on the line tonight as they make the long trip to Seminole. With a win the Bulldogs will clinch a playoff berth, and will play the winner of the Andrews versus Clint game. However, there has been some confusion as to what happens if Borger loses. If Borger drops the contest tonight there will be a three-way tie with Seminole, and Lubbock Estacado. With three teams being tied, and two spots in the playoffs, the ones to advance will be decided by a “coin flip” process. The Bulldogs will have to watch out for Seminole quarterback Brett Hicks. Hicks is a solid signal- caller, and is protected by the versatile center, Morgan Davison. Running back Jarryd Karr anchors the Indian running game. On defense, defensive lineman Steven Day is the go-to guy up front. Another defensive lineman that can cause havoc is Johnny Fehr. The Bulldogs know coming into this contest tonight that they control their own destiny. Borger will try and take the “coin flip” off the table with a big road win tonight.
