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.

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 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 Professional Photographers from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. An Easter See Easter, page A3 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.

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.

Wenzel Builders 935-5441 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 contacted at 574-952-3646 personally or at the school or email at tsradican@ gmail.com.

Jefferson Plymouth Opinion Page A6 Pilot News • Wednesday, March 25, 2015 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. CoFFee Corner 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 By Dave Hogsett 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. Dave Hogsett is a retired United Methodist Church minister now residing in Plymouth. 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.

Pilot News • Wednesday, March 25, 2015 Page A8 NATIONAL CLEANING WEEK MARCH 22-28 Check out these cleaning professionals for your spring cleaning Deep cleaning carpets By Jennifer Brittin Staff Writer METRO PHOTO 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. MARKLEY SERVICES We are here to help with all your cleaning needs.

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 METRO PHOTO 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.

Andre Iguodala came off the bench to score 21 points for the Warriors, who won their seventh straight to push their record to and NBA-best 58-13. Golden State hasn’t claimed the Pacific Division crown since the 1975-76 season, the year after the team won the NBA championship. With a comfortable lead on second-place Memphis in the Western Conference, Golden State has dropped just one of its last 12 games. Damian Lillard had 29 points for the Blazers, who have lost five straight following a 1-4 road trip.

BUCKS 89, HEAT 88 MILWAUKEE (AP) — Khris Middleton hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer and the Milwaukee Bucks snapped a six-game losing streak with an 89-88 comeback victory in a key game for the sixth spot in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Bayless missed on a drive down the lane, but Zaza Pachulia tapped the ball back out to Middleton, who buried the winner. He finished with 13. It was a crucial victory for the Bucks, who improved to 35-36 to remain in sixth place in the conference, while the Heat fell to 32-38. The Bucks also swept the four-game season series with the Heat to ensure the tie-breaker between the teams.

Rudy Gay had 21 points and eight rebounds and Ray McCallum added 11 points for the Kings, who have a 7-11 record since George Karl began coaching the team in mid-February. Robert Covington had five 3-pointers and scored 21 for the 76ers. SOUTH BEND (AP) — Pat Connaughton does whatever it takes to help Notre Dame win. Diving for a loose ball. Grabbing a rebound. Getting in the face of a teammate. The 6-foot-5 forward has been the heart and soul of the Fighting Irish (31-5) during their surprising season and Sweet 16 run. Connaughton’s will to win was evident in the closing seconds in Notre Dame’s 67-64 overtime victory over Butler. First, he was encouraging teammate Zach Auguste after his boneheaded double dribble with 2 seconds left that gave Butler a another chance. Then he was putting his arm around an agitated Demetrius Jackson in the team huddle to calm See Connaughton, Page B2 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. “I don’t know if it’s See Record, Page B2 MCT phoTo Notre Dame head coach Mike Brey reacts to a play as his team takes on Northeastern during the first half in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at the Consol Energy 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.

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 Record cont. from Page B1 unbreakable,” Maryland coach Mark Turgeon said. “It will be hard in a tournament game because you’re playing against really good teams, probably really well coached.

Michigan St., Plymouth 936-3101 THE PILOT NEWS GROUP Pilot News 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 Indiana soybean fields had some level of the disease last year, the most severe since 2010, noted Kiersten Wise, an associate professor of plant pathology. Even though the disease reduced yields, Indiana soybean farmers still produced a record crop last year, at 307.4 million bushels. “Yields may have Purdue dePartment of Botany and Plant Pathology Photo/Kiersten Wise been even greater if it weren’t for SDS,” This individual soybean plant shows the characteristic symptom of sudshe said. Wise 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. Fun & Advice Page B4 Pilot News • Wednesday, March 25, 2015 ‘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. Like to surf the web?

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.

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.

Local Page B8 Pilot News • Wednesday, March 25, 2015 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 Photo Provided Troy (Evan Wilson) and Gabriella (Brooke Bahr) are perennial favorites in Disney’s “High School Musical” this weekend at Bremen High School. Photo Provided What are they thinking? These real Bremen High School students audition to play themselves in the school’s production of “High School Musical” in four performances this weekend. If you go Show times for “High School Musical” are 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 26, Friday, March 27, and Saturday, March 28 at Bremen High School. There will also be a matinee at 2 p.m. Saturday, March 28. Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for students. Tickets ca n be purchased at the BHS front office. coach at the high school. Set construction and lighting were assisted by the students and local volunteers. Choreography for the show was designed by Overmyer, former student Sarah Talley, and student Karis Fanning (the Sharpay). In an interesting development, cameo roles in the play are performed by two enduring favorite will gladden your heart and leave you with a sense of fulfillment that “all is right with the world.” The 55-member cast utilizes the entire stage and set designed by Director and vocal music teacher Kathy Overmyer and Assistant Director Mindi Sloan, the technology integration staff members. Tenth-grade English teacher Jen Heiter plays Miss Darbus, the theater teacher, and history and PE teacher Mark Yoder is cast as Coach Bolton. Leads in the show are Evan Wilson as Troy Bolton, Brooke Bahr as Gabriella Montez, Karis Fanning as Sharpay Evans, Nick Bonebrake as her brother Education Briefs programs available for kindergartners. Parents should bring a copy of the child’s birth certificate, to verify the date of birth, and the child’s immunization record. If a parent is unable to attend on April 29, please contact Culver Elementary at 574-842-3389, or 574-542-4017 to make other arrangements. CCSC kindergarten roundup April 29 CULVER — Culver Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Vicki McGuire announces kindergarten enrollment information for the 2015-16 school year. Kindergarten roundup will be held at 6 p.m. Wednesday, April 29 in the Culver Elementary School cafeteria. To be eligible for kindergarten, a child must be 5 years old on or before Aug. 1, 2015. Children do not need to attend this informational meeting with parents, however the kindergarten classrooms will be open to visit following this meeting. This early registration is critical in the planning for next year’s kindergarten program. During this meeting, parents will be informed about required health records, forms needed for registration, kindergarten screening, Indiana curriculum standards, and Knights BEMS kindergarten registration BREMEN — The Bremen Elementary-Middle School kindergarten registration for the 2015-16 school year will be held on Wednesday, April 15. Registration will be held in the Large Group Room. During registration, the prospective student will be given a developmental inventory. Parents must bring their child in at a prearranged time. The school is asking those who have not sent in a pre-registration form or called the school to pre-register, to please contact the school as soon as possible for an assigned time for the registration. of Columbus Parents will need to allow approximately an hour for the registration and screen- Spring Fish Fry Friday, March 27, 2015 4:00-7:00 p.m. Ryan, Ryan Hummel as Chad Danforth (Troy’s friend), Nikki Gramm as Taylor McKessie (Gabriella’s friend), Bri Andrews as Kelsi Neilson, Brayden Lancaster as Jack Scott, Tommy Foster as Zeke Baylor, and Shelby Zellmer as Martha Cox. In typical high school fashion and rounding out the full cast of factions are: Jocks: Ben Nick, Trey Overholser, Beau Beeson, Aaron Brooke, Andrew Cullers, and Austin Ingle; Brainiacs: Jonathan Blystone, Regan Murphy, Griff Hertenstein, Mady LaVine, Trent Stichter, Anthony Avery, Jeff Zellmer, Lorinda Kline, Dixlyn Howard, Kylie Murphy, and Alaina Huffman; Thespians: Andre Sarille, Lucy Heiter, Alex Homann, Amanda Napier, Belle Beeson, Erica Hille, Luke Wonnacott, Christina Prawat, Andres Gutierrez, Nathan Rzeszewski, and Noah Lancaster; Cheerleaders: Maddy Coffel, Taylor Steigmeyer, Brooke Tolle, Maria Thornton, Lily Coffman, Amanda Kline, Jaden Wilson, and Alison Hummel. Skaters: Hudson Thornton, Nicole Hueni, Diane Stichter, Zach Campbell, Dylan Shumaker, Kerygan LaVine, and Jessie Hughes. 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. ing process. There will be an information session for parents while children are being tested. Parents are reminded that they need to bring their child’s official birth certificate for age verification. To be eligible for enrollment, the child must be 5 on or before Aug. 1, 2015. Any questions concerning registration may be directed to Bremen Elementary-Middle School at 574-546-3554.
