MARSHALL COUNTY— The Marshall County Election
Board convened at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, March 24 to discuss
dates and times for in-person absentee voting and emergency preparedness during voting, along with several other
topics.
During the March 13 meeting, emergency procedures during elections were discussed at length.
Marshall County Clerk, Deb VanDeMark, said that she
believed there’s a state statute which requires that even during an emergency situation, of disasters, power outages, or
other unforeseen circumstances, an election is still required
to go on.
“We need to be aware and take action if something were
to happen,” VanDeMark stated. Alternate polling sites in
the event of an emergency, as well as back-up generators for
power outages were discussed.
In response to the concerns addressed during the previous meeting, the Director of Marshall County Emergency
Management, Clyde Avery, attended Tuesday’s meeting and
presented board members with a draft of the Emergency
Preparedness Guide.
The dates and times for in-person absentee voting at the
Marshall County Courthouse were discussed and approved.
The clerk’s office will be open for absentee voters on

LAKEVILLE/LAPAZ — Sparkling
dresses, upbeat music, and a chance to
ask that special someone to dance often
mark the memories of prom.
Special needs educator Tami Radican

wanted to offer that opportunity to
have a prom to her students. Due
to their needs, special needs students
may have difficulty with things like
strobing lights or loud music. That’s
why Radican and her supportive community are taking steps to make this

Marshall County Easter egg hunts and other events
By JennifeR BRittin
Staff Writer
MARSHALL COUNTY— Fond family memories are
made during the holidays when families gather together
to celebrate, worship and enjoy time spent together. Easter
time offers a little extra special fun for the little ones, who
don their holiday attire to enjoy Easter dinners, hunting for
cleverly hidden eggs, fuzzy bunnies and Easter baskets.
There are many great activities for families to do during the Easter season at home and in the community. From
activities found online to old-fashioned games, sometimes
the smallest games can turn into the biggest memories for
a family.
For those looking for entertainment outside the home,
several local communities, churches and organizations are
holding special services and Easter events which are open
for everyone to attend.
The Argos Lion’s Club is hosting an Easter Egg Hunt
sponsored by the Argos High School LEO Club on Saturday,
April 4 at the Argos Methodist Church. There will be a free
breakfast and prizes. Guests are reminded to bring their
baskets for the eggs they collect during the hunt which will
begin at 8 a.m.
Kiwanas of Bourbon will also be hosting an egg hunt
on April 4 at the Bourbon Park for children ages walking
through 12 years. The hunt will begin at 10 a.m. with kids
separated into groups by their age. There will be prizes and
fun for all.
The annual Breakfast with the Easter Bunny will be held
at the Webster Center in Plymouth on Saturday, March 28.
Guests are invited to join the Easter Bunny in a delicious
breakfast of pancakes and sausage from 9 to 11 a.m. Tickets
are on sale at the Park Office or can be purchased at the door
for $4 for adults and $3 for children. For more information
call 574-936-2876.
The Community Gospel Church of Bremen is sponsoring
an Easter egg hunt at Jane’s Park on Saturday, March 28
beginning at 10 a.m. Toddlers and preschool age children
will have the opportunity to hunt for eggs starting at 10:15
a.m. and at 10:35 a.m., a helicopter will fly over, dropping
15,000 eggs for the elementary age children to collect.
The Catherine Kasper Life Center will be holding an
Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, March 28 from 10 to 11 a.m.
rain or shine. Children ten years and younger are invited
to come and search for the 3,000 eggs which will be hidden
on the grounds. Catherine Kasper is located at 9601 Union

Amish Acres will be offering an Easter celebration for the
whole family to enjoy. The first thing children think of at
the mention of Easter is the Easter Bunny. This year, kids
can get their pictures taken with live bunnies by Stillhorn

Groundwater testing survey available by IDEM
By Rachael heRBeRtVaRchetto
Staff Writer
INDIANA — This year
is set to mark off a test for
Hoosiers across the state, as
the Indiana Department of
Environmental Management
(IDEM) as asking for participants in its 2015 ground
water assessment survey.
Officially
called
the
Statewide
Groundwater
Monitoring
Network,
approximately 400 people
will be selected from the voluntary study to have their wells tested for
free.
“Not everyone will be sampled because
it’s a statewide study and we’re looking
for representative samples of private wells
across the state,” said Jim Sullivan, the section chief of the Groundwater Section in the
Office hours Weekdays 8-5
936-3101
1-800-933-0356
[email protected]
Sports: 936-3104
[email protected]
Drinking Water Branch at
IDEM.
Sullivan stated that the
purpose of the survey is to
be an informative tool to the
department to get a better
idea of contaminants in the
groundwater, if there is any.
E. Coli, arsenic, nitrates,
metals,
bacteriological
organisms, and more can
contaminate water in wells
and cause people to become
sick.
The survey, however, will
not test for arsenic, nitrates,
or E. Coli, the bacteria in
particular due to the short lifespan of the
organism.
“We send out information for homeowners as to who could potentially sample their
well, and suggest an annual test at a minimum for bacteriological lifeforms,” Sullivan
said of those concerned about getting their
water tested but not being selected for the
sample.
Arsenic and cause issues in particular as
both the compounds are odorless and colorless. Sullivan stated his department found
contamination with those substances are not
predictable .
“You wouldn’t notice it if there was a concentration in the water. Nitrates specifically
are a conner for young children and pregnant women. It’s tied to the blue baby syndrome and inhibits their ability to uptake
oxygen,” he explained.
The data collected will be used to create a picture of the ground water quality
in the state. Using factors such as depth to
the water and the well, the use of land,
and geology, IDEM will be able to properly
evaluate ground water quality for hoosiers.
With a proper baseline to work off of,
IDEM believes it will be able to protect the
resource of ground water and its changes
over time. The effect of ground water on
surface water will also be considered in the
study.
Those who are selected will be able to
learn exactly what may be in their water, if
anything is discovered.
For others who aren’t, Sullivan has some
advice.
“If there’s an issue, we would council the
person with the problem and basically they
contact a commercial water treatment company to add the appropriate type of treatment for whatever contaminant they may
have,” he stated.
Sullivan believes it is important for everyone with well water to have an annual
inspection, just to be safe.
“Just make sure that there;s no ponding or
standing water around the well, that the casing is in good shape, and that’s not cracked.
And to sample their water,” he said.

Water Monitoring Network, eligibility
requirements, and how residents can register their well, visit http://www.in.gov/

Jail Bookings
The
Local
prom memorable and using attention
to detail, tailored to her kids.
“It’s just been something in my
head for two years. This fall before
Christmas, I started talking about it
to make it happen,” said Radican, the
mother of two children with autism.
Considering the needs of her own
children, Radican began to wonder
about how she would make an event
like prom enjoyable for both her
sons, as each one has different needs
depending on where they fall in the
autism spectrum.
“There needs to be alternatives for
my kids and my classroom. We can
do a beautiful prom with decorations
at a time of day that works better for
them. The music doesn’t have to be
quite as loud, and so we’re adapting
so it’s a wonderful experience for [my
students],” she explained.
To accommodate for the noise level,
the music won’t be blasted nearly
as loud as is normal at most proms.
There will be no flashing lights that
might potentially trigger seizures, and
Radican is planning on having quiet
rooms for students who want to take
a break from the noise and commotion
that is generally found at a prom.
The students will begin arriving at
the jr./sr. high school early in the
morning to prepare for prom. Radican
is planning on setting up rooms at the
back of the school where the boys and
girls can prepare in private for the big
party, before driving them around to
the front of the school.
Students will enter through the
doors at 10 a.m. and be greeted and
announced as they come in, dressed in
their finery.
Using only donations from a supportive community, Radican and other
staff have been planning the event for
several weeks.
DJ, limo services, hairdressers, a
professional photographer, and others
have freely volunteered their services
to make this event special for the students.
An added bonus is that Radican
has invited special needs students and
their classrooms to attend from high
schools across the county and beyond.
Plymouth, LaVille, Culver, Oregon
Davis, Knox, North Judson, Triton,
Bremen, John Glenn, and Rochester
have all had their functional skills
classrooms invited to the event to take
part.
The students and their families are
enthusiastic in their response to the
event.
“It’s huge and infections,” she said.
“Some of the older kids are more
independently functioning, and they
understand the idea of a dance or party.
They’re super thrilled to have this
incredible day. The parent response is
overwhelming. They want their child
to have typical experiences like everyone else in high school.”
Several parents have volunteered
to help, including one parent who is
donating all of the corsages and boutonnieres for the students to wear.
With her work towards the prom
for special needs students, Radican
believes that this will gear her up and
others like her to create the groundwork for an annual event. Students
in the younger grades, she believes,
Easter, continued from front
buffet of cider baked ham, roast beef, hearth baked bread,
fresh pies and much more will be served in the restaurant
from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Easter day.
There is a coloring contest which kids can do while waiting for their tables at dinner or the pictures can be downloaded from Amish Acres website and turned in already
colored when they visit Sunday.
Kids 12 years and younger can also take part in a scavenger hunt to win prizes. Forms for the scavenger hunt can be
downloaded from the website and printed. After all the sites
on the map have been visited, they can be turned in to the
Greeting Barn Easter Day.
An Easter egg hunt will begin at 1 p.m. for kids 12 and
under. One thousand candy-filled eggs will be hidden
around the Amish Acres Courtyard and orchard. There will
be three golden eggs with gold dollars and three silver eggs
with silver dollars included in the hunt.
Newton Park’s Annual Easter Egg Hunt will be held on
Saturday, April 4 starting at 9 a.m. Over 20,000 eggs will be
dispersed over 3 areas in the Lakeville park. Kids 13 and
under will be divided into groups by their ages to gather
eggs. Kids can get their picture taken with the Easter Bunny
from 9 to 11 a.m. for $3. There is a $1 gate fee per child and

will be more open to the idea of school
functions outside of special events like
this one.
“Maybe they will be able to go to
a senior or junior prom as a group
and participate, because really they’re
teaching opportunities for the future.
This is what a dance is like, this is what
to expect.”
The school itself has also been supportive of the plan.
“They were very supportive. I think
this is going to be bigger than anyone
expected.”
While most of the groundwork is
already in place, Radican still has the
challenge of securing decorations for
the party and food.
“The whole purpose is to give these
students every opportunity that every
other student has. I take my students
every week to taekwando. I’m a believe
that we have to try everything we can,
and they should have those opportunities.”
The best part, Radican feels, is the
joy she believes she will bring to her
students.
“The parents are beyond thrilled
to see their kids get all dressed. I
can’t wait to see [the kids] faces light
up, because who doesn’t want to be
Cinderella? This is going to be really
special.”
The prom will take place on May 1 in
the LaVille Jr./Sr. High School gymnasium from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
For more information or to donate
services, items, or time, Radican can be

To Skype or not
to Skype
Do you, like me, prefer the Up Close and Personal Style
of Conversation, as opposed to Distant and Disembodied?
If so, you may not be familiar with Skype, a popular form
of the latter involving
a video phone call per
computer.
Some callers consider viewing each
other during conversations an advantage.
By RacHael
But when video phone
calls were only twisted
PHilliPs
dreams in the minds
of 1970s sci-fi nuts, I
considered them the world’s worst idea. Who wanted her
boyfriend to see her wearing soup-can rollers and pimple
cream? Back then, as long as I kept my phone voice sweet
and sultry, I could remain the girl of his dreams — as
opposed to his worst nightmare. At least, until we married.
Phone partners then also multitasked freely, folding laundry, reorganizing shelves, remodeling kitchens — all while
shooting the breeze.
Video calls not only have complicated personal relationships and home maintenance, they cause business difficulties. Even tech-savvy job applicants sometimes forget that
while interviewing, they should not sit next to “Belly Up to
My Bar” signs, petting pony-sized dogs that lick the camera.
Others, underestimating its scope, wear suit coats, ties and
boxer shorts to impress future employers.
Skype forces us to look like we are listening. Traditional
phone calls require only an occasional “Really?” or “You’re
right about that.” Skilled non-listeners can even satisfy talkative souls on the other end with a variety of grunts.
Skype, however, requires more advanced fake listening
skills. I am fortunate to have acquired these early in life. My
mother’s deadly “Are you listening to me?” and my dad’s
eagle eye from the pulpit inspired my precocity. Even if
mentally sleuthing with Nancy Drew or star-hopping with
Mr. Spock while my parents explained, ranted, or preached,
I sat still, fixing unglazed eyes on them. Gradually, I learned
to alternate blinks and nods. This valuable life skill has
served me well and continues to help me navigate Skype.
Technological glitches [gasp!] do happen. Sometimes
when we conduct holiday family sessions, the screen
resembles a Christmas-themed Picasso, accompanied by a
Hindustani-like sound track. These cyber get-togethers generate few warm fuzzies, especially as family techies disagree
on the computers’ diagnoses and treatments.
Thanks to said techies, however, most attempts succeed.
Of course, planning a session time that everyone can make
is comparable to coordinating flights in an air control tower.
Second, fifteen straight minutes of family togetherness
without a potty break requires precision timing and lots of
luck — particularly for grandparents. Third, the minute children spot relatives on a monitor, they take a collective vow
of silence. Never mind that they have chattered four days
without sleep about the letter H or made 17 new friends.
“What’s new?” will be answered with a catatonic stare. Still,
coaxing from loving, experienced grandparents eventually
will produce a response: the latest expletive a first-grader
read on the boys’ bathroom wall. Or a question like, “How
come you have hair in your nose?”
One grandson believes we actually reside in the monitor.
He has not asked why no one lets us out. Given the choice,
he would not let us out, either.
Occasionally, we talk them into singing. Since music tastes
rarely coincide, we are treated to a three-way round of different songs in mysterious keys: “Jingle Bells,” “Signed,
Sealed and Delivered” and “Jesus Loves Me.”
They like to play peek-a-boo, ducking so we see only tops
of fuzzy little heads. They wave bare feet before the camera,
so we do, too.
Today, they appeared covered with red, yellow, green and
blue streaks acquired in what our daughter called a “paint
incident.”
Sometimes Distant and Disembodied conversations are
not so bad. Skypeing, neither Grandpa nor I wear their war
paint. Try as they might, they cannot stick their feet into our
mouths. When coughing and spraying every virulent virus
their schools and playgroups offer, they cannot slime us.
Yet I long to hug warm little bodies instead of throwing
and receiving kisses via a computer screen.
Still, they are for-real kisses from precious little people we
cannot see often as we’d like. We nearly drown in delight,
watching our youngest grandchild coo and chuckle, though
250 miles of Michigan tundra separate us.
To Skype or not to Skype?
Definitely a no-brainer. Even if someone let Grandpa and
me out of the monitor, I think we would stay.

Seeing where history took place
When I was growing up I associated
Palm Sunday with three things. First,
it marked the beginning of Holy Week.
This meant a vacation day Friday.
Second, there was an Easter Cantata by
the choir instead of a sermon. Lastly,
usually at the beginning there was a
procession of palms around the sanctuary.
Early on I was a part of the procession of palms. Later I watched as
others carried on the tradition. As the
children waved their branches I tried
to imagine what it must have been
like the first Palm Sunday. My visualizations had a rather Midwest flavor.
Jerusalem looked a lot like a small
town in Ohio.
Several years ago I was able to get a
more realistic picture of the first Palm
Sunday when I had the good fortune
to be able to stand in the Kidron
Valley which runs beside Jerusalem’s
Old City. To my left the garden of
Gethsemane which contains several
Olive trees that well might go back to
the time of Jesus, the Mount of Olives,
and the top of Dominus Flevit. To my
right was an ancient cemetery that the
Muslims had created to prevent Jesus’s
return through the Golden Gate which
lay just behind it.
That first Palm Sunday Jesus would
have come down the Mount of Olives
to my left and would have entered
the temple mount through the Golden
Gate to my right. Watching the whole
affair would have been the Romans
... From the
heartland

who would have been stationed at the
Antonia fortress and the Jewish officials looking out of their windows on
the temple mount.
Every time I read the accounts of
Palm Sunday I do so through the filter
of my been where the event actually
took place. Having had firsthand experience of the setting of the story has
helped to make it become more alive
for me and my understanding of it to
be more realistic.
A couple of years ago Diane and I
participated in the community study
of Shelby Foote’s novel Shiloh. It tells
the story of the battle that was fought
between the Union and Confederate
troops near Pittsburg Landing,
Tennessee, April 6 and 7, 1862. Foote
made the battle come alive as he told
the story through the eyes of those
who had participated. However, my
understanding of the Battle of Shiloh
was not complete until the summer
before last when I had the opportunity of visiting the actual battlefield.
Being able to stand where the persons
in Foote’s novel had stood, helped to
make the story come alive in ways it
never could have if I had not visited
the site.
Since 2011 Diane and I have visited
other Civil War battlefields. At this
point we have been able to visit almost
all of the sites of the major battles of
the war. One thing that has impressed
me is the incredible loss of life. At
Fredericksburg, Virginia we stood on
field where Union troops were slaughtered in charge after charge for no
good purpose. We have seen the grave
stones of those who died in battle.
Reading about the cost of the war is
one thing, seeing it first hand is something else.
Some call the “Holy Lands” the
fifth gospel. They help to fill out and
enhance the picture of Jesus that we
find in the four written gospels. A
pilgrimage to Israel can help a person
better understand their faith and can
renew one’s commitment to follow
Jesus. Visiting the sites where events
took place can help one to better
understand what happened and can
give new understandings and appreciations.

Re-purposing abandoned
Hoosier factories for the future
Many of Indiana’s counties are
awash in excess industrial, commercial
and residential property. In my county
alone, about a quarter of all factories
and store spaces and perhaps one in
eight homes are vacant. Most of this
property will never again be used for
its original purpose. More than half
of Hoosier counties can tell a similar
story.
The homes and commercial property will be leveled and the land repurposed, but industrial property is
another matter. The types of structures
that comprised early 20th century
factories are less simply re-purposed.
Three-foot concrete pads, hundreds
of tons of brick and steel, and persistent environmental remediation needs
plague these properties. Without radical thinking, these former factories will
stand as ugly, gated monuments to
technological change.
Many of these places lie in amenitystarved regions, so the highest use of
this excess property will often be in
crafting public places that will attract
and retain households. The failure to
do this is, after all, one reason that
these regional economies lag today.
There are many types of things that
could be done. For the sake of illustration, I offer one example — a sports
facility.
Commentary
By MicHael J. Hicks
A large industrial facility will often
have several key ingredients of a
multi-purpose sports facility; land for
parking and fields, utilities and floor
structures capable of supporting the
heaviest of facilities, such as a swimming pool or hockey rink. The vast
space within many of these places
would be sufficient to support a wide
variety of others activities.
To be clear, the cost of refurbishing
these facilities is still significant. It will
never be less than several million dollars to transform a vacant factory into
a usable swimming pool with gym
space, bleachers, commercial areas and
parking. Still, the idea has some merit,
and one need travel no farther than
the rapidly growing towns in North
Carolina to see attractive alternative
uses for redundant tobacco warehouses.
Over the past decade Indiana’s economy has fared better than much of the
nation. Still, only a dozen or so coun-
ties have grown faster than the nation
as a whole. The remaining 80 or so are
in decline, and for most places in the
state this is a 50-year trend.
The transformation Indiana must
undertake in the coming decades is
large. These types of proposals will
require honest appraisal from local
governments, as well as some risk. It
is happening in some places. Recently
Muncie forgave $20,000 in back taxes
owed on an industrial site so it could
be transformed into an urban farming
and compost facility.
Reversing the excess property issue
will require thoughtful private investment and public investment that
doesn’t displace more fundamental
public services. Indiana communities
must focus on attracting people, knowing the jobs will come with them. We
ought to embrace our past; it has largely been a good one. The factories that
fueled that past can animate the future.
A BorgWarner or Chrysler Natatorium
would be much welcomed additions
to amenity-starved cities and towns
across our state.

Check out these cleaning professionals
for your spring cleaning
Deep cleaning carpets

Cleaning out the closets can rid the home of clutter and allow for better organization.
Donating or reselling the items can be another benefit besides the extra space.
Cleaning out the closets
By rachael herBert-Varchetto
Staff Writer
MARSHALL COUNTY — Spring is symbolically a time of renewal and celebration,
as well as a new jumping off point to get
things done at home.
As locals start to wake up from the hazy
cold of winter, some spring cleaning options
to simplify life can make spring a little
brighter.
Closets can seem a little cramped. A great
way to make space is to clear out what
is worn and give to a local organization.
Clothing that isn’t worn anymore due to
common wear or because it is no longer
appealing can be given a second life.
“Seasonal items can be taken out of season, like heavy coats, and we have an ability to store them in the warmer months,”
said Sara Hill, executive director of the
Neighborhood Center.
The center also takes children’s clothing,
as an appeal to parents who go through the
stress of growing pains as their kids shift
from one size to another.
“This time of year our blankets are quite
depleted because we’ve been handing them
out in the winter time,” added Hill.
Stating that it’s a great way to help out
the center during the warmer months, Hill
stressed that her organization does not take
furniture or appliances. Household items
and clothing are their most in-demand items.
Clothes that don’t quite make the cut
past volunteers are given to the Salvation
Army to be turned into rags for their scraps
program.
Local resale shops and consignment shops
are also good places to donate clothes from
family members that have outgrown their
welcome as that formerly favorite pair of
sneakers no longer in season.
Goodwill along with local shop Harriet’s
Closet in Plymouth, This & That from
Bremen, and the St. Vincent De Paul Society
of South Bend are some of several local
options that will also take used clothes.
Local churches can also be one option to
give old, gently used, and worn clothing for
the poor and less fortunate in a community.
But say it’s not the closets that need to be
cleaned, but the garage and rest of the house.
As warmer weather comes, garage and
yard sale ads will begin to appear, beckoning folks for the promise of a good deal and
a chance find at a great item, as well as put
cash in the hand.
ReStore, the shop by Habitat For Humanity
to raise funds for its building projects, is
located in Plymouth and does not take
clothes, but other items that generally are
not accepted by every resale or consignment
shop.
“We take building materials, tools, paint,
furniture, cabinetry and fixtures. We take
about anything but some goods and it it’s
re-sellable,” said Assistant Manager Mike
Plantenga of ReStore.
Though they will not take electronics, anything in good condition is usually something
that ReStore believes can be given new purpose. Those doing remodeling may find the
tools or pieces they need to get that project
in the bag and under budget.
“It helps the community, and for people
doing spring cleaning out of their garages
and basements, it helps them to start anew,”
he said.
And someone else who’s looking for
something a little different.

MARSHALL COUNTY—
It’s springtime and many
people are itching to give
their homes a top-to-bottom cleaning. To make the
biggest difference, it’s most
effective to start with the
big pieces like furnishings,
appliances and carpeting.
Carpet cleaning is a very
important part of the spring
cleaning routine because
carpet sees the most assault
in the home. The kids run
through the house after
playing outside, often forgetting to remove their dirty
shoes or pet owners whose
pets have accidents on the
floor.
Start at the entry doors
by shaking and cleaning
doormats. Give them as
thorough a cleaning as they
can stand to remove all the
grime, so that dirt doesn’t
get carried into the house as
people walk across them.
Nicole from Lowry’s
Carpet Care and Flooring
in Plymouth says, “When
spring cleaning carpets
and flooring I would suggest that people make sure
the vacuum bags are fresh
and for container vacs,
make sure the containers
and filters are clean.” This
will allow the vacuum to
remove as much dirt and
grime from the flooring as
possible. Vacuuming carpets
regularly throughout the fall
and winter will also make
spring cleaning duties much
simpler.
Most homeowners choose
to steam clean their carpet

Clean carpets can make a big difference around the home.
Those that find the task daunting have options when hiring
someone to do the job for them.
during the spring. “Steam
cleaning carpets every six
months to a year will provide the best results,” says
Nicole. If shampooing with
a rented carpet cleaner, practice in a small hidden area
first. Save time by moving
furniture first and place furniture legs on a small piece
of wax paper to keep them
from getting wet as the carpet dries. To speed up drying time, which can take a
day or more, open windows
to let in a breeze and turn
on fans.
Many who find the idea
of deep cleaning carpets
daunting, call in the professionals to do the dirty work.
“Our cleaning technique is a
little bit stronger than that of
a rented cleaner or one that
can be bought at Wal-mart,”
explains Nicole. “We use a
high pressure hose and vacuum system, so it does provide a much deeper clean.”
Spring cleaning tips
• When cleaning the kitchen save the
stove for last as it is likely the most dirty
spot. This will also help from spreading
grease to other areas of the kitchen.
• Window cleaning can be made easier by
using a rubber-edged squeegee instead of
paper towel or newspaper.
• When cleaning windows pick a cloudy
day. The sun will heat the windows and
cause the cleaning solution to dry too fast
leaving streaks.
• To make an easier task of cleaning out
the refrigerator wash the inside with a mix
of two tablespoons of baking soda and one
quart of warm water. Allow the mixture to
set on dried food spills to soften for easier
cleaning.
• A welcome mat is the first stop at
preventing dirt from entering the home.
Keeping the mat clean can help stop dirt
before it gets tracked inside.
• Cleaning ceiling fans and light fixtures
can be made easier with a microfiber cloth
and an extension pole. Fasten the cloth to
the pole and dust off those higher fixtures
with out having to climb a step ladder.
• When cleaning have several pre-marked
boxes to put items in. Such as “garage sale”
and “to be donated”. This way there will
be a designated spot for items before you
begin.

Sweet 61: Carr’s tourney scoring record stands test of time
CLEVELAND (AP) —
Austin Carr never imagined
his record would last five
years. It has stood for 45.
“It’s been that long?” he
said. “Yeah, that does surprise me.”
On March 7, 1970, Carr,
Notre Dame’s unguardable guard, set the NCAA
Tournament record by scoring 61 points in a 112-82
first-round win over Ohio in
Dayton. Since then, Carr’s
massive mark has endured
rule changes (there was no
3-pointer), the tournament’s
expansion and the madness
of many a March.
On the list of seemingly “unbreakable” sports
records — Joe DiMaggio’s
56-game hitting streak,
Cal Ripken’s 2,632-consecutive game streak, Wilt
Chamberlain’s 100-point
game come to mind— Carr’s
could elbow in for room
near the top.
No one has challenged
61, just three fewer points
than unbeaten Kentucky
scored on Saturday in its
win against Cincinnati. The
closest threat was Navy’s
David Robinson, who scored
50 against Michigan in 1987.
Carr actually holds three
of the top 5 scoring games
in NCAA Tournament history. Following the win
over Ohio, he scored 52 in
a victory over Kentucky and
had another 52-point performance the next year against
TCU. The No. 1 overall draft
pick in 1971 by Cleveland,
Carr averaged an incredible 52.7 points in the 1970
tourney and his career tournament scoring average of
41.3 (seven games) is easily
the highest. Princeton’s Bill
Bradley is next at 33.7.
For Carr, who spent nine
of his 11 seasons in the NBA
playing for the Cavaliers,
the majestic 61 remains a
source of pride.
“It’s a good feeling to have
the record,” Carr said last
week. “But at the same time,
I was always told records
are made to be broken so I
don’t really get caught up in
that. But I’m amazed that it
has lasted that long.”
Maybe more amazing is
what Carr would have done
if there had been a 3-point
line. While many of his baskets came off layups and
short jumpers, he drained a
few long-range shots.
“I was told by a guy who
went back through and
broke down the game that I
would have scored 73,” Carr
said, smiling. “I could have
scored 73.”
Carr’s record might be
untouchable in today’s game
for several reasons.
First, teams play more
sophisticated
defenses
designed to stop scorers —
or at least slow them down.
Advancements in technology allow coaches to have
advanced scouting reports
on teams. The more film
on a player, the easier it is
to expose their flaws. Also,
it’s rare to find any college
team who relies so heavily
on one player to carry an
offense. Carr averaged 38.1
points in 1970. For comparison’s sake, Wisconsin AllAmerican Frank Kaminsky
averaged 18.4 this season for
the Badgers.
“The style of game has
changed where coaches now
have three guys do what
one guy did,” said Carr, a
longtime TV broadcaster for
the Cavs.
The 6-foot-4 Carr, equally
devastating inside and outside, knew early on he was
in for a big game against the
Bobcats. The Fighting Irish
geared their offense around
the unstoppable Carr and
he had 20 points in the first
nine minutes and 35 at halftime.
“The ball was flowing,”
Carr said. “Most of my game
was without the ball and
Jackie Meehan, our point
guard, he would get you the
ball right where you could
do something with it, and
that night we were just clicking right away and the ball
was feeling good going in
and I just kept going.”
Carr made 25 of 44 shots
from the field, 11 of 14 from
the line.
With his team comfortably ahead late, Notre Dame
coach Johnny Dee wanted
to substitute for Carr at
about the same time the
All-American learned he
was only a few points from
breaking Bradley’s tournament record of 58 points.
“I was about three or four
points away from it and he
said, ‘We’ve got the game
won, I gotta get you out,’”
Carr recalled. “I said, ‘Welp,
I guess I better try to get it
then.’”
He got it, and the record
could last another 45 years.

Center in Pittsburgh on Thursday, March 19.
Brey never considered
missing game after
mother’s death
SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame coach Mike Brey
walked into the locker room shortly before tipoff against
Butler and told his players that someone in the hotel had
asked him why he had been smiling all day.
“You know why?” he told his players. “Because I have a
great team, baby. I’ve got a great team.”
After the game, Brey burst into the locker room and shouted to his players, “Is it past midnight?”
“It is,” a player shouted back.
“Well it’s my birthday and that’s a hell of a birthday
present. Thank you so much,” the 56-year-old coach said
moments after the Irish beat Butler 67-64 in overtime early
Sunday morning to advance to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA
Tournament for the first time since 2003.
The self-described “loosest coach in America” showed
no signs of the long day he had endured until 20 minutes
after the game was over and his players had time to savor
their accomplishment. That’s when athletic director Jack
Swarbrick told the Irish about the loss of Brey’s 84-year-old
mother, Betty, who passed away Saturday morning.
Swarbrick said that is typical Brey.

Ready, set, scramble! Chaos defines end of tourney games
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — In
the 2008 national championship, with Kansas trailing
Memphis by three and 10.8
seconds left in the game,
coach Bill Self called for his
team to run a play called
“Chop.”
The play, designed to
provide multiple scoring
options in moments of desperation, began with Sherron
Collins dribbling up the
court. Veering to his right,
Collins handed off to Mario
Chalmers at the top of the
key, and Chalmers took the
first of his options: He shot
the 3-pointer.
It splashed through the net
to force overtime.
Kansas went on to win the
title, and that perfectly executed play became known
as “Mario’s Miracle.” And
if anybody thinks calling it
a miracle is hyperbole, well,
chances are they haven’t
been watching as teams
flounder through the final
minutes in this year’s NCAA
Tournament.
Turnovers, missed shots,
poor coaching and worse
execution. Just call it organized chaos, late-game blunders that have nevertheless
produced some memorable
finishes.
“First of all, the reason you
struggle in games is because
the other team’s pretty doggone good,” explained North
Carolina coach Roy Williams,
whose team survived two
close games to reach the
Sweet 16. “The other thing is
the attention, the pressure —
they’re still 18-, 19-, 20-yearold kids. I mean, they’re not
going to get it right.”
Indeed, many of today’s
brightest stars are freshmen
and sophomore, players
unaccustomed to the game’s
biggest stage. That dearth
of veteran leaders, several
coaches have argued, is also
one of the big reasons that
that scoring continued its
downward trend this season.
Another reason for the
late-game flubs: Low- and
mid-majors are often trying
to upset a heavyweight, and
the talent gap becomes more
pronounced when the game
is on the line.
That appeared to be the
case last Thursday, when
UC-Irvine had Louisville on
the ropes.
The Anteaters were
inbounding the ball near
midcourt, trailing 57-55
with about 6 seconds left.
Alex Young was promptly
stripped by the Cardinals’
Terry Rozier, a turnover 40
feet from the hoop that prevented the Big West champs
from even attempting a tying
shot.
“We had a quick play lined
up and unfortunately I lost
the ball,” Young said. “We
couldn’t get a timeout, and it
just happens. It’s basketball.”
Speaking of timeouts,
Northeastern
burned
through its allotment in
the second half against
Notre Dame, leaving coach
Bill Coen unable to set up a
final play with the Huskies
trailing by two in the closing
seconds. Instead of getting a
tying shot off, Quincy Ford
coughed up the ball, and the
Fighting Irish added a couple
of free throws to seal the victory.
Asked about his timeout
dilemma, Coen replied: “I
wish we’d had one left.”
Irvine and Northeastern
weren’t the only teams that
failed to get shots off with
the game on the line, either.
The same thing happened
to Valparaiso, whose coach
Bryce Drew knocked down
that infamous 3-pointer that
sent the Crusaders past Ole
Miss in 1998.
Valpo
was
trailing
Maryland 65-62 with time
running out on Friday, and
Keith Carter got stuck in the
corner in front of his own
bench. He never even got a
3-pointer off.
“I’ll take the blame from
that,” Drew said afterward.
“I thought Maryland did a
really good job. We tried to
do something a little different off one of the plays we
usually run.”
When the Jayhawks flawlessly ran “Chop” in the 2008
title game, they had practiced that exact play hundreds of times. And the person who took the 3-pointer?
Chalmers, a seasoned junior.
“There is a lot of pressure,”
acknowledged Williams,
who whose Tar Heels survived a tense finish against
Harvard in their NCAA
opener. “You’ve got to find
some kids that can block all
that out, and especially if
they’re really, really talented,
you’ve got a better chance.”
North Carolina took a
67-65 lead on the Crimson on
a run-out with 23.8 seconds
left. But rather than go to the
basket for a layup or to draw
a foul, Harvard’s Wesley
Saunders let loose a tightly
guard 3-pointer with almost
no time left that bounced off
the back of the rim.
The Tar Heels advanced.
The Crimson headed home.
“We certainly have situations that we go over when
we’re down one possession
and things that we’re looking
for,” Harvard coach Tommy
Amaker said. “Wesley is our
playmaker. ... If he was going
to get a three, get a drive, get
a two, we were going to live
with his decision there.”
Just like many other teams
that now have to live with
their last-second slipups.
Connaughton cont. from Page B1
him. Then he was soaring to
make an authoritative block
of a shot by Kellen Dunham
to make sure the Irish didn’t
lose in regulation.
Finally, in overtime he
ended a 0-for-5 streak from
3-point range by hitting a
shot from the corner to give
the Irish the lead. Running
back on defense he shouted,
“They’re not gonna stop us.”
Typical Connaughton.
“He is the cruelest of competitors,” Note Dame coach
Mike Brey said. “Nice guy
off the court. But he will cut
your heart out on it. He’s set
a great tone for us.”
Connaughton, a fourthround draft pick of the
Baltimore Orioles, started
setting the tone last summer while pitching Single
A baseball for the Aberdeen
Ironbirds. He’d see fellow
senior Jerian Grant text a
message about a pickup
game on campus and see
teammates respond with
excuses about why they
couldn’t make it.
Connaughton sent a mass
text.
“I said, ‘Jerian’s going to
set a time for pickup. No
matter what, you’re going
to be there. He’s the captain
at this point in time. If he
says it’s time for pickup, it’s
like coach said it’s time for
pickup. All of you are going
to be there,’” Connaughton
said.
Connaughton kept setting
the tone when he returned
to campus. He’d tell teammates he didn’t want to
see comments made on the
court lead to bad blood off
the court, as was the case the
previous season.
Brey has said repeatedly
this season that this year’s
team was more mature in
accepting criticism.
“They are more secure
with each other when
they’re confronted by each
other,” he said.
Connaughton has led by
example also. He is third on
the team in scoring at 12.5
points a game and leads the
Irish with 7.3 rebounds a
game. He is 16th nationally
in 3-point shooting percentage at 42.7 percent and 34th
in defensive rebounds with
6.25 a game.
Assistant coach Anthony
Solomon is fond of saying,
“It’s Pat’s world.”
“Whatever he wants to
do, and there’s some truth
to that,” Brey said. “You
talk about a guy being born
under the right star, man, it
just happens for him.”
Connaughton is hoping
an NBA team will give him
a chance, but he also is interested in signing another contract with the Orioles. He
said he can’t decide which
sports he likes better.
“It’s like a parent answering the question of who is
their favorite twin,” he said.
Irish fans just hope
Connaughton can lead
Notre Dame to wins over
Wichita State (30-4) and the
winner between Kentucky
(36-0) and West Virginia (259). That would put the Irish
in the Final Four for just
the second time in school
history.
to do it.’ In this case, they
would have wanted him to
do. That’s what they did.
That’s what they taught him
to do. So in a very tangible
way he was honoring his
parents by doing that.”
Brey traveled to Orlando,
Florida, on Sunday to be
with his father and his
brother and sister. He
returned to South Bend in
the early hours Monday and
coached the team at practice. He didn’t talk with the
media on Monday.
The university announced
that the family was planning a memorial service in
the Washington, D.C., area,
most likely in June.
Team
captain
Pat
Connaughton said Brey told
the players when he got on
the team bus that he would
talk to them about his mother at the hotel. Connaughton
sat next to Brey, put his arm
around him and let him
“know we’re here for him,
that we love him and we
know how much he’s done
for us,” the senior said.
At the hotel, Brey told the
players about his mother.
“He told us about how
much she meant to him, how
much she’s done throughout her life and how she was
with him every step of the
way,” Connaughton said.
Connaughton said Brey
told the team at practice
Monday he had a good
day with his family and the
players again told him how
sorry they were for his loss.
He told them he appreciated
it and that he wanted to
focus on basketball.
Swarbrick gave Brey a
giant hug after the game
because he knew what Brey
had been through.
“I probably would have
given him a hug anyway,
but it was a little different
hug because I knew what
the day had been like,”
Swarbrick said.
Brey cont. from Page B1
“It shows how he feels
about his kids,” Swarbrick
said. “That’s so preeminent
with him, not wanting to be
a distraction or not being
available to his kids.”
Brey said he never
thought about skipping the
game, saying his brother
encouraged him to stay with
the team, saying “Dad’s
great. We’ve got him over
the house. ... Beat Butler.”
Brey said he knew it’s
what his mother would
have wanted. She swam at
Purdue and competed in
the 1956 Olympics. She later
was a swim coach at George
Washington University.
“An unbelievable woman,
a woman ahead of her time
and probably the real driving force behind everything
I’ve done,” Brey said.
Brey’s father, Paul, was a
high school athletic director. Brey talks frequently
about two of his mentors,
DeMatha High School coach
Morgan Wooten, whom
Brey coached under for
five years in Hyattsville,
Maryland, and Duke coach
Mike Krzyzewski, whom
he coached under for eight
years. But he said his two
biggest mentors were his
parents.
“I grew up with two of
the best educators ever,”
Brey said. “Every kid that
they touched, whether the
swimming pool they ran
in the summer or as high
school educators, loved
them. I learned a lot right
there, that their pupils loved
them. I tried to emulate my
mom and dad as far as how
I interact with people.”
Swarbrick said Brey’s
parents would have wanted
their son to be with his players.
“That was their lives.
They were coaches. They
were teachers,” he said.
“People always say, ‘Well
they would have wanted me

Turgeon said. “It will be hard in a tournament game because you’re playing
against really good teams, probably
really well coached. To get to 61 would
be hard. You don’t know who is going

WEST LAFAYETTE — A team composed of a Purdue
University researcher and others from several Midwest universities and Canada is studying soybean sudden death syndrome to help farmers better protect
their crop from the
recurring disease.
Most

disease last year, the
most severe since
2010, noted Kiersten
Wise, an associate
professor of plant
pathology.
Even
though the disease
reduced

Indiana soybean
farmers still produced a record crop
last year, at 307.4
million bushels.

and den death syndrome, the interveinother researchers al yellowing and browning on the
upper trifoliates.
from Iowa State
University, Michigan State University, the University of
Illinois and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture have been
looking for answers beyond typical production practices,
which include crop rotation and planting disease-resistant
varieties. That hasn’t been enough to stop the disease.
“We wanted to look at how a combination of various production practices affected SDS to determine a better management strategy,” she said.
Those practices include early to late planting, use of varieties resistant to both SDS and soybean cyst nematode, and
fungicide seed treatments. They also examined how weed
killer glyphosate and pre-emergence herbicides affected SDS
severity.
Sudden death syndrome, first reported in Arkansas in
the 1970s, is now in nearly every state where soybeans are
grown. Contrary to its name, infected plants do not die suddenly. Plants are typically infected in the early vegetative
stages of growth, and symptoms appear in the mid-to-late
reproductive stages, usually late August in Indiana.
SDS is an annual problem because the disease-causing
fungus — Fusarium viguliforme — survives in the soil over
the winter. The fungus also can live on corn debris.
Cool and wet conditions in the spring make the soybean
plant susceptible to early infection, and frequent rains in the
reproductive stages allow the toxin produced by the fungus
to move up the plant and into its leaves. Although symptoms are usually most severe in soybeans planted in April,
Wise said it is important to remember that later-planted soybeans are still at risk for disease development.
“It’s the environment rather than the calendar that determines whether the conditions are conducive to infection,”
Wise said.
She said preventive measures before planting are very
important, since there are no in-season management options
to manage the disease.
Funded by the North Central Soybean Research Program,
a farmer-funded checkoff, Wise last year conducted field
trials at the Pinney Purdue Agricultural Center in northwest
Indiana. The study included the additional option of seeds
treated with a new chemical, fluopyram, designed to protect
the root system against the SDS fungus in the seed zone. The
chemical is marketed by Bayer, which contributed financial
support for the research.
The Indiana trial results showed that:
• The SDS-resistant variety had lower disease levels at all
planting dates with and without the fluopyram seed treatment.
• The resistant variety produced higher yields with and
without fluopyram in all but one planting date.
• Fluopyram significantly reduced disease severity and
increased the yield in both resistant and SDS-susceptible
varieties compared with a standard seed treatment. Greatest
disease reductions were noted in soybeans planted before
May 15.
Wise said fluopyram is another tool that farmers could
consider in managing SDS. This year will be the first year the
seed treatment is available for use.
In addition, the researchers recommended that farmers
plant soybean varieties resistant to SDS and soybean cyst
nematode, avoid compaction and maintain notes on which
fields are affected by the disease for future management
decisions.

‘D’ is for ‘diabetes’ (Vitamin D)
Dustin
BY MICHAEL ROIZEN, M.D.,
AND MEHMET OZ, M.D.
The 1991 film “Night on
Earth” tells the story of five
taxi rides in five locations
around the world, from Los
Angeles to Rome. In it, most
characters, including Corky
(Winona Ryder) and Angela
(Rosie Perez), seem determined to avoid the light of
day. That’s something familiar to the 1 billion people
across the globe who don’t
have healthy levels of vitamin D because of lack of
exposure to the sun.
The repercussions of low
D are significant: D regulates the function of more
than 200 genes that control
growth and development;
Blondie
deficiency has been linked
to obesity, hypertension,
depression, osteoporosis and
Alzheimer’s disease. It also
might contribute to development of breast, prostate and
colon cancers. And now it
seems that low D is more
likely to contribute to Type
2 diabetes than being overweight! (And we know that
is a major risk factor.)
Spanish researchers looked
at folks (some lean, some
obese) and found two things:
Lean people with diabetes
had lower D levels than lean
folks without diabetes; and
obese people without diabetes had higher levels of
vitamin D than obese people
with diabetes. So for a diabetes-free health plan, in addition to maintaining a healthy
weight, eating plenty of fresh
produce and walking 10,000
steps a day — get your vitamin D levels checked and
take 1,000 IU of D-3 a day.
If you’re D-ficient, bring it
up with extra supplements
and 15 minutes of sunshine
daily. Remember, sunscreen
doesn’t interfere with your
body making vitamin D, but
night on Earth does!

Daughter-in-law who flashes needs message to cover up
DEAR ABBY: My fiance, “Jerry,” has a
daughter-in-law who flashes both of us intimate parts of her body. At a recent gathering, she went down to the floor 2 feet away
from where Jerry was sitting and gave us
both a full view up her dress. Abby, she did
it deliberately!
I thought the
time one of her
breasts popped
out of her blouse
was a “wardrobe
malfunction.” I
no longer feel that
way.
Jerry is a pushover. He doesn’t
say anything; he
just runs away
By Jeanne PhilliPs
from it. I’m afraid
things will only
get worse. She must be trying to run me
off. I can’t think of any other reason for her
behavior.
We have decided to not go on vacation
with them this year because of this. Jerry
is doing what he can for us to avoid being
around her, but he has his 1-year-old granddaughter he adores to consider. What do
you think is going on? — COVERING MY
EYES IN TEXAS
DEAR COVERING: I think the daughterin-law either has no sense of modesty or
she’s an exhibitionist who enjoys shocking
Dear Abby
people. Because it bothers you and embarrasses your fiance, he should tell his son and
explain how it makes the both of you feel. If
the son delivers the message to his wife, it
shouldn’t cause a family rift.
******
DEAR ABBY: A few years ago, I broke
up with a guy who was emotionally and
sexually abusive. We had been seeing each
other for eight months. We weren’t living
together, but I still was scared to break up
with him because of what he might do to
me. He would often call me bad names if
I disagreed with what he wanted to do,
and have angry outbursts during which he
would throw things.
I have looked up how to safely exit an
abusive relationship, but everything I find
deals with what to do if you are living with
the abuser. They don’t teach us in high
school how to safely drop an abuser; they
just tell us to drop him. How do you safely
break up with an abuser when moving to
the other side of the country is impractical?
— RECOVERING IN THE USA
DEAR RECOVERING: Here is what I
recommend: If you have mutual friends, tell
them why you ended the relationship with
him. In addition, stop going places where
you know he hangs out.
If he continues to call you, tell him to stop
and hang up. Then screen your calls. If he
emails, delete his messages without looking
at them. However, if he follows or continues
to pursue you, make a police report.

HINTS FROM
HELOISE
HELOISE'S
KITCHENEERING
This Idea Lacks a Peel
Dear Heloise: You are
never too old to learn an
easy way to PEEL HARDBOILED EGGS. I boiled
10 eggs and put them in
the refrigerator. A few days
ago, I wanted hard-boiled
eggs, but I didn’t want cold
eggs. I put two eggs in the
microwave for 20 seconds. I cracked the shell on
the large end and peeled. -- W.D., via email
Your hint is a good reminder of how to
reheat eggs, but here is what we learned a couple
of years ago after testing it at Heloise Central: The
eggs must already be OUT OF THE SHELL before microwaving. Additionally, you must insert
a toothpick in the egg to keep it from exploding
while heating. -- Heloise
PEKING ROAST
Dear Heloise: In your recipe for Mother’s Peking Roast, it says to use vinegar. Is that
white or apple-cider vinegar? -- Louise, via email
You can use either! For those readers
interested in the recipe, gather the following:
First, to marinate:
3-5 pounds roast beef
Garlic and/or onion slivers
1/2 to 1 cup apple-cider or white vinegar
To cook:
Cooking oil
2 cups brewed, strong coffee
2 cups water
Salt and pepper
390
Wanted to Buy
Using a sharp knife, cut slits all
throughout the roast, and stick the slivers of garlic,
onion or both into those slits. Place the roast in a
bowl and pour the vinegar over it, making sure to
get it into the slits. Cover with plastic wrap and let
marinate in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours.
To cook, remove the roast from the
bowl and dump out the vinegar. Use a heavy Dutch
oven or similar pot to brown the roast on all sides
in oil. Once browned, pour the coffee over the
meat and add the water. Cover and cook slowly
for about 6 hours on the stovetop. Check while
cooking, as you may need to add more water as
the roast cooks. About 20-30 minutes before serving, season well with salt and pepper. For more
favorite recipes, order my Heloise’s All-Time Favorite Recipes pamphlet online at www.Heloise.

stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/All-Time,
P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001.
Use the leftover roast to make delicious hot or cold
sandwiches the next day! -- Heloise
GRAHAM-CRACKER HINT
Dear Heloise: My way of making graham-cracker crumbs is to put graham crackers between two pieces of wax paper and use a rolling
pin to roll over them until they are crumby. When
finished, just pull up the wax paper on either side
and put the crumbs into a bowl. No mess! It is
cheaper than buying the already-crumbed graham
crackers. I learned this from my mom, who is now
87. -- Joanne Rasmussen, Huntington Beach, Calif.

BHS presents ‘High School Musical’
By Ed SchErEr-BErry
Correspondent
BREMEN — Do they really sing and dance up and
down the halls at Bremen
High School?
Audience members will
experience a good facsimile of this phenomenon if
they attend Bremen’s spring
musical — the favorite
Disney movie-made-play
entitled appropriately “High
School Musical.” Four performances are scheduled
this weekend at the Bowen
Auditorium at the school.
Patrons may choose to
come Thursday, Friday, or
Saturday at 7:30 p.m. or to
the matinee at 2 p.m. on
Saturday. Tickets may be
purchased at the door and
are $5 for students K-12 and
$7 for adults. Seating is not
reserved.
The audience-pleasing
plot revolves around a
twist of fate as star basketball player Troy and brainiac Gabriella meet at a ski
resort while on winter break
from their respective high
schools. They sing karaoke together and become
friends, never expecting to
see each other again.
Naturally, they are thrown
together again as Gabriella
shows up as a new student
at Troy’s school. They wind
up auditioning together for
the school musical, and are
called back for final auditions.
Two subplots keep the
action moving forward. In
the first, school drama queen
Sharpay and her fraternal twin brother Ryan are
co-captains of the school’s
drama club and have captured the leads in school productions since time immemorial. Sharpay, of course,
is incensed with the unexpected competition from this
new geek girl student.
The second wrinkle comes
from the associates of Troy
and Gabriella. In a “Romeo
and Juliet-esque” scenario,
each star is firmly planted in
a clique of the school which
allows no outsiders. Troy’s
team wants him focused
entirely on the basketball
championships. Gabriella’s
academic team wants her
as a major competitor in
the Academic Decathlon.
These two “families” or peer
groups conspire to make
Troy and Gabriella hate each
other so they will not star
together in the musical.
If you have seen the
movie, the end results of all
of this jockeying will not be
a surprise. Nevertheless, the
twists and turns and eventual dénouement of this

Set construction and lighting were assisted by the students and local volunteers.
Choreography for the
show was designed by

Sarah Talley, and student
Karis Fanning (the Sharpay).

play are performed by two

For the stage adaptation
of the movie, voicing has
been rearranged and the
character Jack Scott has been
added as the P.A. announcer
for East High School — a
sort of narrator role.
The cast attempts to highlight the notion that high
school students — and audience members, for that matter — need to get out of
their traditional “ruts” and
accept others who are different. Troy wants to break old
habits. Basketball players,
scholars, theater students,
cheerleaders need to realize
that there are more things in
life than just sports, grades,
drama, school spirit, etc.
Brooke Bahr (Gabriella)
said, “This play is like a high
school. I can be my character. I can relate to her.” Karis
Fanning (Sharpay) noted
that “I like my role. It’s
sassy. I get to be over the top
with my character.” She has
to be a real actress, however,
and portray a mean, stuckup prima donna. Standing
next to Bahr, she said, “It’s
hard. Brooke is really nice!”
Overmyer said, “This
musical has been a very
fun process. It has been a
smooth rehearsal sequence.
The kids really wanted to do
this show. Allowing them to
create their roles has been
enjoyable.”
Final words of advice come
from Evan Wilson (Troy). He
said, “This is one of the most
talented casts we’ve had for
a while. Everyone is excited
to put on a good show for
the audience.” You will not
want to miss this full-scale
production of “High School
Musical” this weekend.
