Police Searching for Leads After 9 Years
Brett Wolfe’s Family Still Grieves his Murder Almost a Decade Later
Kori Casey
City Editor
Today marks nine years
since 25-year-old Brett Wolfe
was found in his apartment
with his hands tied behind his
back, his feet tied together
and a fatal gunshot wound to
the chest, and the pain hasn’t
gotten easier for his family.
“Nothing, absolutely nothing could possibly be as heartbreaking as the death of your
child,” Wolfe’s mother, Vickie
wrote in a letter to The Seminole Producer.
“Your heart breaks again
and again at each birthday and
holiday. You cannot heal without answers.”
Wolfe’s body was found
around 11:30 a.m. on Friday,
Sept. 22, 2006 in his home at
the Courtyard Apartments.
Vickie was working at a
daycare at the time when a
family member told her she
needed to come home.
“What happened that day
was unreal and evil,” she said.
“Those cowards took away
more than they could imagine.”
Brett’s first child had been
born just days before his
murder.
Seminole EMS workers
and the Seminole Police were
the first to arrive on the scene
around noon that day, and after
paramedics checked Brett for
signs of life, the Oklahoma
State Bureau of Investigation
(OSBI) was called along with
the Medical Examiner’s Office
and then Assistant Police Chief
Shane Marshall.
“Everytime new information has come been reported,
OSBI has followed up, and
there are multiple agents working on the case,” said Detective
Branon Bowen.
“There are people out there
who know about this killing
that weren’t there, and we
need those people to come
forward.”
Brett’s mother said losing
him has sucked the joy out of
family get-togethers.
She said Brett loved people,
and could talk to absolutely
anyone about absolutely anything.
The OSBI is currently offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest
and convictions of the person
or persons responsible for
Wolfe’s murder.
“I know it’s frustrating to
the family when it seems like

cheerleaders attended a cheer clinic sponsored by the Seminole High School cheerleaders and got to show off their new skills
for the hometown crowd.
If your wallet has been feeling a little heavier in recent
days, you can attribute it,
at least in part, to lower gas
prices.
Several stations around
the Seminole area had prices
set below the $2.00 mark on
Monday.
At press time, the price
leaders were Murphy USA on
Wrangler Blvd, and the Sinclair station at Milt Phillips
and Hwy 9, where a gallon of
regular unleaded was priced at
$1.97.
Murphy’s Management said
that was the every day price,
and consumers could shave
even more off the price per
gallon with certain promotions.
According
to
GasBuddy.com, at least three
other stations in the area had
prices below $2.00/gallon.
Statewide, average retail
gasoline prices have fallen
3.9 cents per gallon in the past
week, averaging $2.05/gallon
yesterday, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 2,294
gas outlets in Oklahoma.
This compares with the
national average that has fallen
3.7 cents per gallon in the last
week to $2.29/gallon, according to the same survey.
Including the change in gas
prices in Oklahoma during the
past week, prices Sunday were
107.9 cents per gallon lower
than the same day one year ago
and are 45.6 cents per gallon
lower than a month ago.
The national average has
decreased 34.1 cents per
gallon during the last month
and stands 104.2 cents per
gallon lower than this day one
year ago.

Astronaut Set to Visit State
Lee Morin to Speak at Galileo’s World Forum in Norman
NORMAN – NASA astronaut Lee Morin will provide
the keynote address at a public
forum celebrating the opening
of the Galileo’s World exhibit
at the National Weather Center
beginning at 1 p.m., Friday,
Sept. 25.
In his talk, Morin will connect the ideas of cross-disciplinary research to modern
experimentation and scientific
exploration.
“On behalf of the entire
National Weather Center, we
are excited to host the opening
of the Research Campus venue
of Galileo’s World,” said Berrien Moore, dean of the OU
College of Atmospheric and
Geographic Sciences and
the director of the National
Weather Center.
“We are particularly excited
that Lee Morin will provide his
perspectives on the work of
Galileo, and how it helped set
the stage for the Space Age,”
Moore added. “We look forward to hosting the Oklahoma
community in this important
event.”
“Galileo’s innovative scientific instruments from the
telescope to the thermoscope
seemed almost like natural
magic in the ways they opened
up new worlds of discovery,”
said Kerry Magruder, OU
Libraries History of Science
and Galileo’s World curator.
“Experimental
use
of
instruments like the thermometer, barometer and air pump
promoted a new way of doing
science in which meteorology
often led the way.
By showcasing these works
in this state-of-the-art National
Weather Center facility along-
side modern innovations,
we illustrate the connections
between Galileo’s world and
the world of OU today.”
During the forum, representatives from the University of
Oklahoma’s Bizzell Memorial Library, the Sam Noble
Museum and the National
Weather Center will discuss
Galileo’s World, a universitywide exhibition consisting of
20 exhibits in seven locations
on all three OU campuses.
The exhibition features over
300 rare books, instrument
replicas and video tutorials on
loan from the Museo Galileo,
digital resources and interactive displays to explore the
connections between science,
art, literature, music, religion,
philosophy, politics and culture.

White Scores
Twice to Key
Ohio U. Win
ATHENS, Ohio -- Former
Seminole High School star
Papi White scored two touchdowns Saturday to lead Ohio
University to a 35-14 win over
Southeast Louisiana.
White scored on runs of 10
and 58 yards as the Bobcats
upped their record to 3-0.
White rushed six times for
66 yards, caught two passes
for 50 more yards and returned
two punts for 16 yards.
He has 96 yards rushing
for the season (averaging 9.3
yards per carry) and 101 yards
receiving. He has returned 10
punts so far for 75 total yards.
White, a red-shirt freshman,
was a star running back for the
Chieftains. He graduated in
2013. He sat out last year at
Ohio U. with an injured knee.
Ohio U. travels to Minneapolis this week to face Minnesota.
A Different Look

Seminole’s Chieftains sported different jerseys for Friday night’s game against McLoud.
It was the National Guard Game of The Week and Seminole and McLoud both sported
commemorative uniforms. The Chieftains also plan to wear something other than their
traditional green jerseys for their homecoming game Oct. 2 against Bethel. The alternative
tops will be worn on a one-time basis.
OU, OSU Move Up in Poll
Ohio State is No. 1 and Michigan State is No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll,
giving the Big Ten the top two
teams in the rankings for the first
time since 2006.
The Buckeyes received 40
first-place votes after a lackluster
victory against Northern Illinois
on Saturday. Michigan State has
seven first-place votes. The last
time the Big Ten held the top two
spots in the AP poll was November 2006 when Ohio State and
Michigan went into their annual
rivalry game Nos. 1 and 2,
respectively.
No. 3 Mississippi made a
big jump from 15 after winning
at Alabama. The Tide dropped
from No. 2 to No. 12. The Rebels
received 11 first-place votes.
TCU is tied for third with Ole
Miss and Baylor is No. 5.
Oklahoma moved up one spot
to No. 15 after defeating Tulsa.
Oklahoma State did likewise,
going from 25th to No. 24 after
beating UTSA.
Notre Dame is sixth, followed
by LSU, Georgia, UCLA and
Florida State. The Tigers receive
one first-place vote.
Ohio State is No. 1 for the
99th time, passing Notre Dame
for second place all-time. Oklahoma has the most weeks at No.
1 with 101.
Two weeks after having a
record 10 ranked teams, the
Southeastern Conference is
down to six, matching the Pac-12
for the most of any league.
Northwestern moved up six
spots to No. 17 after beating
Duke on the road. The Wildcats’
opening victory against Stanford
is also looking a whole lot better
after the Cardinal bounced back
with two straight wins, including
a 41-31 upset at USC on Saturday night.
No. 19 Southern California
dropped 13 spots after losing at
home to the Cardinal.
Stanford is back in the rankings at No. 21. The Cardinal
win was part of a 6-0 Saturday
for the Pac-12 North, which was
considered the weaker of the two
divisions.
Auburn, which started the
season ranked No. 6, is out of the
rankings after a losing to LSU.
The Tigers probably qualify as
the most disappointing team of
September.
This week, only two games
match ranked teams: No. 9
UCLA at No. 16 Arizona and
No. 18 Utah at No. 13 Oregon.
Romo Injured in Dallas Win
PHILADELPHIA – Tony
Romo called Jerry Jones, who at
the time was in the visitors’ suite
at Lincoln Financial Field when
he learned the news.
“We both were sick,” Jones
said.
Romo’s broken left clavicle,
sustained in the third quarter here
Sunday against the Philadelphia
Eagles as he scrambled for a
fumble, is the same injury that
shelved him for the season in
2010. It came on a similar play,
a crunching tackle that drilled
Romo shoulder-first into the turf.
Romo winced immediately after
hearing a pop. He mouthed, “It’s
broken,” on his way to the locker
room. He was right.
Is the season broken too?
Jones said he felt “about as
low as a crippled cricket’s a--”
when he saw Romo lying on his
back again. He wasn’t alone.
This was supposed to be the
year when the Cowboys had a
true chance at a Super Bowl.
Now they must fight to stay
atop the NFC East without their
franchise quarterback and their
franchise receiver. Romo is out
eight-to-10 weeks, according to
an ESPN report with more tests
pending Monday. Dez Bryant is
out with a broken foot, and on
Sunday NFL Network reported
that he may miss up to 12 weeks.
As the Cowboys walked
off the field Sunday, having
crushed the rival Eagles 20-10
to go 2-0 on the season, it was
hard to sense what they had truly
accomplished. Two division wins
also bequeathed two seasonthreatening setbacks. Few of the
Cowboys smiled, or spoke, as
the players entered the victorious
locker room.
“It was a great victory,” said
defensive end Jeremy Mincey.
“But a huge loss.”
Mincey said he hurried over
to Romo on the sideline when he
emerged from the locker room in
a sling.
“You all right?” Mincey said,
hopefully. “Everything good?”
Everything wasn’t good. At
all.
“He looked sad,” Mincey said.
“I seen it in his eyes.”
Romo indeed looked glum
after the game, walking slowly
into the locker room with a jacket
over his sling.
“I felt it,” Romo said of the
injury. “It has a little bit of a pop
to it. Obviously I’ve felt it before.
Your body kind of goes into a
little bit of shock.”
There’s a strange silver lining,
as Romo’s fragility may have a
positive side effect for this team.
Romo doesn’t practice until
halfway through the week, so the
receivers are already comfortable
with Brandon Weeden, a former
Oklahoma Stater.
“This isn’t that different for us
because we see Brandon every
week to start off the week,”
receiver Terrance Williams said.
“He can get it there. Left field,
right hash, he can get it there.
With Tony not there, we have to
lock in from play to play.”

Mayfield Shines Again as Sooners Top Tulsa
NORMAN -- Baker Mayfield sure knows how to make
an impression.
The quarterback in his third
start for No. 16 Oklahoma set
a school record with 572 total
yards, threw four touchdown
passes and ran for two more
in powering the Sooners over
Tulsa 52-38 on Saturday in a
game that totaled 1,376 yards
of offense.
Mayfield, a transfer from
Texas Tech who walked on at
Oklahoma and sat out last year,
had four TDs in an overtime
win against Tennessee a week
ago. He followed that up by
completing 32 of 38 passes
for 487 yards and carrying
13 times for 85 yards against
Tulsa.
“Man, he was lighting it up,
extending plays,” Oklahoma
receiver Sterling Shepard said.
“You just kind of have to run
with him. He’ll find you down
the field. He’s always looking
to pass first, but if he has to
take it on the ground, he will
do it, and you guys got to see a
little bit of that today, too.”
Mayfield’s total yards
topped the 554-yard record set
by Landry Jones against West
Virginia in 2012. His passing

Tulsa (2-1) stuck with
Oklahoma for much of the
game with Dane Evans throwing for 427 yards and four
touchdowns. Keyarris Garrett
caught 14 passes for 189 yards
and a score.
Tulsa coach Philip Montgomery said he was proud of
his team’s effort, but disappointed in the outcome.
“There ain’t nothing good
about losing,” he said. “We
aren’t going to be satisfied
with that. I thought that we had
opportunities to really turn the
game around.”
Oklahoma led 31-24 at
halftime. The teams combined
for 863 yards in the first half,
the most in a first half since
Fresno State at San Jose State
combined for 1002 in a 2013
game.
Oklahoma finished with
773 yards, the fourth-most in
school history and the highest
total since gaining 829 against

for UTSA. The Roadrunners
had six turnovers against San

in 2013.
‘’Not a lot of good today
from the Roadrunners,’’ coach
Larry Coker said. ‘’We turned

We are a lot better football
team, certainly, than we played

Carson’s 26-yard run made it
14-0 two plays after Jordan
Burton recovered the ball on
the UTSA 37.
After gaining 42 yards
on 15 carries in his previous
game, Carson nearly matched
that, gaining all 37 yards on
that possession, in two plays.
‘’Anytime you average 6
yards a carry, you’re going
to gain more confidence,’’
Cowboys offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich said about
Carson. ‘’We’re working real
hard every day in practice and
good results come with great
effort. I think our offensive
line is improving as well. We
have to maintain balance and
being able to throw the ball
obviously helped.’’

Pulitzer Prize winner to speak at OSU Public Notice
STILLWATER,
Okla.,
-Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Dr. Eric Foner will share
newly discovered, detailed
records of slave escapes
through the Underground Railroad in a lecture at Oklahoma
State University on Wednesday, Oct. 7 at 5 p.m. in the
Peggy Helmerich Browsing
Room at the OSU Library.
Foner’s lecture, titled Gateway to Freedom: The Hidden
History of the Underground
Railroad, pulls from his recent
book by the same name. His
2010 volume The Fiery Trial:
Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery won the Bancroft
Prize, the Lincoln Prize, and
the Pulitzer Prize for History.
“Eric Foner is one of the
most influential, prolific, and
thoughtful historians of the past
50 years,” Dr. Laura Belmonte,
professor and Head of the
Department of History at OSU,
said. “He is one of the world’s
preeminent authorities on Civil
War and Reconstruction, slavery, and 19th Century American
politics. We are truly honored
to host him at OSU.”
One of only two persons to
have served as president of the
three major professional organizations (the Organization of
American Historians, American Historical Association,
and Society of American His-
torians), Foner has published
numerous books and written
for many other well-known
publications.
He has become a popular
guest on television and radio
shows such as Charlie Rose,
Book Notes, The Daily Show
with Jon Stewart, The Colbert
Report, Fresh Air, and All
Things Considered. He was
the on-camera historian for
“Freedom: A History of Us,”
on PBS in 2003.
The lecture, presented by
the OSU Department of History, is free and open to the
public.

Chickasaw Nation Governor Emeritus
Overton James Passed Away at Age 90
Overton
James,
who
served as Governor of the
Chickasaw Nation from 1963
to 1987, passed Wednesday,
September 16, 2015. He was
the youngest man to serve as
governor of the tribe.
James, whose Indian name
was Itoahtubbi, was born July
21, 1925, in Bromide, Oklahoma, to Rufus (Cub) James
and Vinnie May Seely James,
both enrolled Chickasaws.
Chickasaw Nation Governor Bill Anoatubby served as
Lt. Governor for James, and
succeeded him as governor
when he retired in 1987.
“Appointed governor by
President Kennedy in 1963,
Overton James helped lead
the Chickasaw people out
from under the control of the
federal government into a
new era of self-governance,”
said Gov. Anoatubby
James served as appointed
governor until 1971, when he
became the first Governor of
the Chickasaw Nation elected
by the Chickasaw people since
Oklahoma statehood in 1907.
He helped to lead the
Seeley Chapel movement,
a grassroots movement of
Chickasaw
people
who
fought to regain the right to
once again elect their own
leaders and reestablish their
status as a sovereign nation.
When James first became
governor, the tribe had no
other employees and offered
no programs or services and
the post was primarily an
honorary position.
As governor, he lobbied
the Indian Health Service
(IHS) and Speaker of the U.
S. House of Representatives
Carl Albert for better health
care. In 1968, IHS opened
a clinic in Tishomingo, the
first health care facility in the
Chickasaw Nation. James was
also instrumental in persuading the federal government to
establish an Indian Housing
Authority in Oklahoma.
After the passage of the
Indian Self-Determination Act
in 1975, Governor James was
able to obtain enough funding
from the federal government
to make substantial changes in
the economic and social conditions of the Chickasaws.
James was instrumental in the 1972 purchase of
what was then known as the
Artesian Hotel. Renamed the
Chickasaw Motor Inn, it was
the first tribal business owned
and operated by the tribe.
With appropriate renovations
and a new business plan, the
motor inn quickly became a
profit-making venture for the
Chickasaw Nation, earning
approximately $100,000 for
the tribe in its first year of
operation.

During his tenure as
elected governor the number
of tribal employees grew
from about 30 to near 200
and tribal revenues increased
from $750,000 in 1975 to
approximately $11 million.
During his administration
the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations began work
with Cherokee colleagues
to pursue legal rights to the
Arkansas
riverbed—rights
which extended to revenues
derived from oil and gas
development of those lands.
That struggle culminated in a
US Supreme Court victory in
1970 and—after three more
decades of negotiation—a
congressionally
approved
trust settlement.
James combined service
to his own tribe with service
to all American Indians. He
served five terms as president
of the Inter-Tribal Council of
the Five Civilized Tribes. He
also served as president of the
Choctaw-Chickasaw Confederation, chairman of the State
Indian Affairs Commission
and trustee of the National
Indian Athletic Hall of Fame.
He was also a member of
the Indian Education Subcommittee of the National
Council on Indian Opportunity, and a member of the

You have plenty of good
ideas, but trying to deal with
all of them will be your downfall. Focus on the most profitable plan and put everything
you’ve got into being successful. Keep your emotions out of
the picture when it comes to
commercial or financial deals.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- If you host a get-together, all
eyes will be on you. Make the
most of a social situation by
mixing business and pleasure.
Important contacts will open
up a window of opportunity.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- Let bygones be bygones.
The more you relive the past,
the harder it will be to move
on. Consider what lifestyle
changes you can make in order
to feel at peace.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov.
23-Dec. 21) -- You have a lot
to achieve and you will be
inclined to overdo it. Leave
yourself time at the end of the
day for some rest and relaxation with loved ones.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- You will be surprised at
the reaction you get when you
are sincere about your needs.
For the assistance you seek,
you just have to ask.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) -- Consider forming a partnership, but don’t stretch the
truth when trying to make an
impression. Overstating your
qualifications or pretending to
be something you’re not will
cost you your reputation.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- You have an admirer.
Your charm and wit will not
go unnoticed, but don’t lead
anyone on. Offer to help out
an elderly relative in order to
acquire a wise ally.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) -- This is a perfect time
for romance. Time spent
with someone special will
strengthen your relationship.
If you’re unattached, make a
point of socializing at singles’
events.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) -- Try to be more accepting. Not everyone will agree
with your way of doing things,
but that doesn’t make them
your enemy. Give others the
chance to speak their minds.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
-- Despite a rocky start, you
will be able to get through
most of your to-do list today.
An emotional friend or family
member will need you to help
sort out a personal problem.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
-- Things are on the move and
a change in location is possible. Consider all the pros
and cons you face. Put your
finances in place and do what’s
most practical.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A
lighthearted diversion will help
you forget everyday worries.
Get together with friends and
colleagues for a physical or
mental competition in order to
let off steam and ease stress.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- Negative types will sour
your mood and lower your
confidence. Align yourself
with people who support your
efforts. A true friend is one
who builds you up, not tears
you down.

85 Years Ago
From the Files of The Seminole Producer
September 22, 1930
Three alleged dope peddlers
were in city jail as the result
of a raid made on the Desborn
Hotel by officers Ira Carter and
Chris Whitson shortly after
midnight. Carter picked up
“Red” Estes on a possession
charge and from him got a tip
that there were two other peddlers in town staying in room
112 of the Desborn.
Carter and Whitson then
arrested Betty Cummins,
25, and Jean Stover, 27, as
the women were in the hotel
room. When officers entered
the room, Carter noticed two
packages of cigarettes on the
bed. He picked up one of them,
wise to the trick of hiding the
“dope” in cigarette packs.
Betty made a flying tackle for
the other package and poured
out some cubes of morphine
and crammed them in her
mouth while the officer chased
her all over the room trying to
prevent destruction of the evi-
dence. She managed to swallow the drug while he tried to
make her spit it out. She later
was a sick woman from the
effects of it.
With the loss of all evidence, the women were
arraigned in police court
and fined $16.50 each on a
vagrancy charge. They paid it
and were released.
Estes was still in jail and
it was intimated he would be
turned over to federal authorities for porsection on charges
of possession and sale of narcotics. He is well known as a
“square John” in oilfield towns
of the state, police say.
-oOoPal Noe, District Commander of the American
Legion and Ed Ball of Holdenville, District Committeeman,
attended the state executive
committee meeting in Oklahoma City. Milt Phillips of
Norman was reappointed
Department Adjutant.

Couple’s Open Relationship
May End Up Closing Theirs
DEAR ABBY: I am a 24year-old woman and currently
live with my boyfriend. We
have a child. Before we started
living together, we discussed
having an open relationship.
We realized how messy it can
be, so we agreed on having a
“free pass” with ONE person,
ONE time. I have met that
person; it is a woman.
At first, my boyfriend was
OK with it. But now that I’m
ready to do it, he’s acting jealous. I told him I would stand by
his side if he changed his mind
about me doing this, but I’m
excited to experience this alone
and not have him involved.
Help, please, Abby? -- CARRYING OUT THE PLAN IN
CALIFORNIA
DEAR CARRYING OUT:
Your boyfriend may be feeling insecure because he is
afraid of losing you. But
this is what he agreed to -- a
“free pass” with one person.
If you feel you need to further explore your sexuality
and he is unwilling to allow
it, then it’s time to rethink
your relationship with him
because you may not be as
suited to each other as you
both thought.
And, by the way, the same
may be true for him. If he
needs someone who is a one-
man woman, then you may
not be it.
**
DEAR ABBY: My son
“Pete” is a felon from an incident that cost him six years in
a federal penitentiary. He has
one more year left on parole.
He married a professional
“psychic” he met online who
we believe has borderline personality disorder. There have
been several instances of serious physical abuse toward my
son. He is constantly trying
to adapt to her ever-changing
moods to reduce these conflicts, to no avail.
Yesterday she smashed a
coffee pot into Pete’s face,
causing a 3-inch gash. Then she
took his guitar and smashed in
the windows of his truck. When
she’s not violent, she threatens
to kill herself. She recently
moved here from the U.K. and
must maintain a living situation
with her husband for at least a
year to establish citizenship.
Pete wants to stick it out for the
sake of his wife’s daughter.
I think my son should call
the police and make a report,
but he is afraid of how she
would and will retaliate. She
knows his background and
could accuse him of anything,
if it comes down to a “he
said/she said” situation. I’m
not sure what to do, Abby. Any
thoughts? -- DESPERATE
MOM IN MARYLAND
DEAR
DESPERATE
MOM: For his own safety,
your son should not continue
living with someone as volatile
as this woman. Pete could be
even more seriously injured
in her next attack if he stays.
When she acts out again - notice I didn’t say “if” -- I
agree that he should call the
police and make a report. He
should also go to an emergency
room for treatment and to have
his injuries photographed.
If his parole officer doesn’t
know what has been going on,
he or she should be informed. If
Pete thinks his wife could harm
her daughter, he should report
it to child protective services.
He should never have
allowed himself to be held
hostage by her threats to kill
herself, which is classic emotional blackmail. This “citizenship” marriage has been
a sham from the beginning,
and your son should end it.

Melvin Schauer
Melvin was
born July
10, 1928 in
the Andy
J a m e s
Community, NW
of Dalhart,
TX. He was the first
child and only son of Edward
Ruben and Sadie Mae
(Lamkin) Schauer. But if
you asked Melvin, he would
say he was born in Lapland
where Texas, Oklahoma,
New Mexico, Kansas and
Colorado lapped together.
The Schauer’s moved to
Channing, TX to the McAlister place in the early 30’s.
Melvin started to school at
Channing, where he walked
to school and was late every
morning. They later moved
to the last house north of
Channing. Ed farmed and did
carpenter work.
When Melvin was a teen,
his father and him spent
a summer on the Matador
Ranch west of Channing
building line camps. The
Matador gave Melvin a spotted horse, which he named
Dutch. He rode his bike and
Dutch all over Channing.
Sheriff Gene Collins asked
Melvin and his friends Clyde
and Red Shepherd to quit
roping the town milk cows
for fun.
He graduated from high
school in 1946. There were
6 in his class. In 1947, Ed
and Sadie moved to Bethany,
OK so their girls could go

Melvin left for Germany.
They marched down 5th Ave
in New York before boarding
the boat. This was the first

Most of his letters came
from Butzbach, Germany, but
some came from Wiesbaden
and some stated they were
from somewhere in the Black
Forest. Melvin came home
September 1952 and was
mustered out at Ft. Sill.
Melvin farmed for a few
months and in February of
1953, they moved to Clovis,

Their first son, Dale was
born in January 1957. Their
second son, Edward came in
Feb 1959. In the fall of 1960,
they moved back to the Channing area to Tom Belchers
place where Melvin’s grandparents had lived when he
was 4. He farmed and wind
