If you wait long enough, the great things from the “good old days” always make a comeback . . .

Across the U.S. and Canada, a resurgence of table hockey is under way, drawing younger players and women to a sport that has long been the domain of older men in their basements reliving a game that hasn’t been popular since they were kids. From its heyday in the 1970s, table hockey—featuring stick figures on a flat board controlled by metal rods, wielding mini-sticks swatting at a small puck—was nearly wiped out by videogames and the Internet.

But recently, table hockey’s veteran ranks have been recruiting younger players, and many of the new breed are now facing off in the sport’s growing tournament circuit. The under-30 set, meanwhile, is being drawn in by the sport’s retro feel—a throwback to the 1970s—in much the way pinball machines and horseshoes stage comebacks from time to time.

Bars like the Monarch Tavern in Toronto are having table-hockey nights, where the mini-pucks fly. High schools in California and western Canada are holding tournaments for the first time ever.

“The sport died in the ‘80s,” said Lou Marinoff, a philosophy professor at the City College of New York, and a Toronto Classic entrant. “Now it appears to be having a renaissance.”

The Toronto event—held earlier this month in the arena of the Toronto Maple Leafs’ minor-league affiliate—is the second major annual event for the sport. The 120 participants were the most the tournament, which has been held since 1999, has ever attracted.

The tournament featured about 20 players younger than 30, including runner-up Dylan O’Hagan, 19, from Peterborough, Ontario. Several hundred observers wandered among the games, snacking on pizza and cotton candy. Some cheered the competitors on. Others walked in and, confused, asked what was going on. Several dozen dogs were also in the hall (it was bring your dog to the game day).

“I’ve never seen this many people at a tournament,” said Dave Williams, 42, who drove up from Detroit with his older brother, Kevin. “It was dead for a long time.”

Last month in Detroit, the other big tourney, the North American Championships, drew players from as far away as Denmark and Norway. A Russian contingent had visa problems and couldn’t attend. Still, the event’s 48 players broke its record for participation. Other tournaments in the U.S. and Canada have been held recently or are planned.

In Europe, the sport is taken more seriously. There are international rankings, prize purses of several thousand dollars and celebrity players.

The sport’s renaissance here is partly due to a dedicated fan base of middle-aged men who played the game in their youth and are now trying to recruit and train the next generation of players. They are emphasizing the sport’s human touch over videogames and smartphone apps.

Young players are looking for “real-life camaraderie,” said Mr. Sokolski, a grade-school teacher from Petawawa, Ontario, and the president of the Ontario Table Hockey Association. “In videogames, there is no humanity.”

The young Mr. O’Hagan, who won the tournament last year and has been playing since he was 14, says he likes the competitive nature of the activity—and the quirks of a sport that is still played mostly in bars and basements. When he won the Toronto tournament last year, he took away a year’s supply of free beer from one of the tournament’s sponsors, a local brewery. He won the event the day after turning 19, the legal drinking age in Ontario.

“Why would I stop playing when I’ve gotten good, and when I win free beer?” he said.

His father celebrated with his son by cracking open a few beers. Mr. Campbell, the 14-year-old, started playing after Mr. Sokolski,

his teacher at the time, introduced the game to his class in Petawawa five years ago. Soon he was beating all the kids his age, and most adults in town, too, at school and in local tournaments.

“I’m clearly not that athletic,” Mr. Campbell said, displaying his scrawny right arm. “This is a sport that I can play and I’m actually good at.”

Mr. Campbell is the “Sidney Crosby of table hockey,” a reference to the young Pittsburgh Penguins star, according to longtime player and table hockey legend Sid Kloosterman. Mr. Kloosterman has won a number of tournaments throughout Canada and makes his own table hockey sets.

At the tournament in Toronto, Mr. Campbell survived the first rounds but ended up losing to his former teacher, Mr. Sokolski, 5-3

Classic. Eugene Kurz, 41, from Toronto, cut his finger while playing, pinching it as he pushed one of his metal control rods.

“There was blood all over the table,” Mr. Kurz said. “Luckily they had bandages.”

Recently we wrote about the restaurant that had banned babies because of the noise they create. This past week there was yet another story about “noise”, referring to it as one of the great neglected health hazards of our time – and the secondhand smoke of our ears.

A.J. Jacobs writes that he and his wife recently took their three sons to Benihana for dinner. It’s their favorite restaurant, thanks to the unbeatable combination of airborne food and machete-size knives.

But what I noticed was the noise: the hiss of the soy sauce on the grill, the escalating chatter of the crowd—and our young sons, who are loud beyond comprehen-sion. Each carried a little plastic trumpet from a birthday party, so it was like being followed around by our own private South African soccer game. We finally pried the ghastly instruments from their hands.

Noise is one of the great under appreciated health hazards of our day, damaging not just our hear-ing, but affecting brain and heart health as well. A.J. Jacobs, author of “Drop Dead Healthy,” explains why to WSJ’s Gary Rosen.

I’ve started to become aware lately of just how loud our world is. Spend an hour listening. The chirping text messages, the dron-ing airplanes, the flatulent trucks, the howling cable pundits, the chiming MacBooks.

And noise is no minor nuisance. It is one of the great underap-preciated health hazards of our time—the secondhand smoke of our ears.

Noise pollution doesn’t get the attention of A-list diseases, but there are a few crusaders raising their voices against the onslaught.

One of them is Arline Bronzaft, a professor emeritus at the City

University of New York.What’s the problem with this

and 5-1.All the new tournaments are

also breaking the ice in the sport’s traditional gender divide. Sue Elias, who described herself as “over 40 years old,” from Oakville, Ontario, won the first ever women’s division tournament at the Toronto tournament. She beat Shirley Aguinaldo 4-2.

There were 10 women players at the tournament. The most women who had taken part in any tournament before that, as far as anyone could remember, was two.

Mrs. Elias says that sometimes she runs into male players who don’t like playing with, and especially don’t like losing to, female players. “One guy started to bleed during our game, he was trying to beat me so badly,” Mrs. Elias says, recalling a previous tournament. “But I won.”

There was also blood on the boards at the recent Toronto

high-decibel world? “The most obvious one is hearing loss,” Dr. Bronzaft says. Some 26 million adults are walking around with noise-induced hearing loss, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Noise also has a surprisingly potent effect on our stress level, car-diovascular system and concentration. In Paleo times, a loud noise signaled a threat, so noise triggers the release of the stress hormone cortisol, which raises blood pressure.

A University of British Columbia review of 6,300 people who work in noisy jobs found that they suffer two to three times more heart problems than those who work in quiet settings. A former World Health Organization offi cial estimates (with a bit of alarmism) that noise-induced strain may cause 45,000 deadly heart attacks a year.

Noise also wreaks havoc on the brain. Dr. Bronzaft conducted a landmark study at a public school in Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood, published in the journal Environment and Behavior in 1975. Some of the classrooms directly faced an elevated subway track. Every fi ve minutes the students heard a train rattle by. Other classrooms were tucked on the opposite side of the building, away from the noise. The difference? By the sixth grade, the kids on the noisy side were nearly a year behind. Since then, her conclusions about the effects of noise on concentration have been backed up by a pile of other studies, on both students and adults.

After meeting Dr. Bronzaft, I pledged to turn down the volume on my own life. I started in my kids’ room. I dug out all of their beeping, yammering electronic toys and spent a half-hour putting masking tape over the plastic speakers

Just how loud is that tantrum? The decibel meter says: ouch.“What are you doing, Daddy?” asked my son Zane. “Just fi xing the

broken toys,” I half-lied. It was a smashing success, at least from my point of view. You can still hear “Chicken Dance Elmo” demand that we “fl ap our wings,” but he sounds like he’s submerged in a bathtub, which is what I’d really like to do to him.

Next up, ear protection. I tried rubber earplugs for a week, but I found them uncomfortable, so I shelled out for Bose noise-canceling headphones. On a plane trip to Atlanta, I slipped them over my ears, clicked the power switch and…well, the world didn’t go silent. But the headphones did turn the volume down from a 10 to a 7. Life took on a sort of dreamy, uterine feel.

In the next few weeks, I started to wear my headphones more and more—big silver-and-black earmuffs. My wife, Julie, has taken to calling me Lionel Richie, because I look like I just walked out of the recording studio for “We Are the World.” She remains skeptical, though, so to prove just how perilously loud our lives are, I ordered a decibel meter that I now take everywhere.

A decibel level above 85—the sound of a lawn mower—can cause permanent hearing loss. My son’s tantrum over missing the last fi ve minutes of “Bubble Guppies” registered at 91, a subway car as it entered the station hit 110.

I tried to get a reading in an argument with Julie about whether or not I misplaced her Time magazine, but when I put the decibel meter near her mouth, she refused to talk. As the physicist Werner Heisen-berg discovered about the quantum world, taking measurements can mess with reality.

Having recently celebrated my offi cial senior citizen birthday, I especially enjoyed a gift book called “It’s Great To Be Old.” Here are two of my favorite sections:

You Know You’re Old When . . . You Actually Watch The Weather Channel

You used to watch the news, but not you watch the weather channel. You have to know what it’s going to be outside.

You leave the weather channel on morning, noon and night. It’s your default channel. Your safety net. Your 911 of TV. You need to know what the weather will be like today, what it’s like right now, what it’ll be like tomorrow, what it’ll be like the rest of the week, what it’s like up north . . .

If you ask yourself what difference the weather will make, the answer is none. If it’s hot, you’ll turn on the air conditioning. If it’s cold, you’ll wear a coat. If it’s wet, you’ll drive slower (if that’s pos-sible). Your plans will not change. The world will not change. But it’s important to know, just in case.

There’s a low-pressure system three states away that might come in by the weekend, which would ruin your plans if you had any.

Look, another hurricane. Maybe someday they’ll name one after you.

There’s an 80% change of precipitation. A good excuse to call your children and remind them not to go out without umbrellas, even if they live in a different state.

The barometer is falling. That’s bad. Or is it good? When it’s ris-ing, it’s good. Or is it bad? What’s a barometer anyway?

You Know You’re Old When . . . Your Parties Don’t Disturb the Neighbors

How noisy can dominoes be? How drunk can people get on Ensure? The only reason police would raid your party would be to look for

a drug dealer selling illegal laxatives. There’s no such thing as “blasting” Broadway show tunes. The loudest moments at your parties occur when someone yells,

“Surprise!” and someone else turns up his hearing aid and yells, “What?”

—CC—And fi nally, my favorite story of the week . . . A local grandfather was taking his grandson home from a ballgame.

It was a particularly bumpy ride and the embarrassed grandpa offered a lame excuse, “the sun shadows through the trees are making it hard for me to see all the potholes.”

“Don’t worry, Grandpa,” the grandson said. “You’re gettin’ most of them.”

This spring the spring rains came, then the great patches of terrible weeds began to appear. The weeds grew so fast they began to take over the yard. I never before saw so many kinds of weeds in the yards. I began to pull those weeds as fast as they came up. I never did get them all because they also grew up in the alleys, vacant lots nearby and all along the shoulders of the street.

Then I began to do some more work in the yard. One of those chores was to cut dead limbs off the wild grapevines that grow to shade the end of the backyard deck. Large green and brown worms begin to fall from the vines. Are these good

worms or bad worms? Do I kill them? I am not sure, because I have just read in the paper that those large weeds are attract-ing beautiful butterfl ies to our yards, and I know that large worms from the garden turn into beautiful butterfl ies that have the bronze, yellow and green colors on them. I want the butterfl ies; however, I do not want the weeds and the worms. Are these large worms falling from the grapevines ones that will turn into butter-fl ies?

Then there is an article in the Sunday newspaper stating that we can turn our yard into a butterfl y magnet by planting beautiful native Oklahoma

plants. Why plant them when they are already growing in our yard? Just don’t pull them up. Let them grow. The article also stated that we should provide host plants for the but-terfl y caterpillars. Some of the plants listed are dill, fennel and chives in a small herb garden. These are already growing in my yard.

The article also stated that we should plant fl owering plants such as Cosmos, Angelonias, Zinnias, Pentas, Salvia and

Vinca (Periwinkles) for the butterflies to get the nectar from.

There are several perennials that also attract the butterfl ies. They are Sages, Black-eyed Susans, Daisies, Day Lillies, Hibiscus, Holly Hawks, Lan-tana, Cone Flowers, Salva and others listed that I either have in my yard now or have had in past years.

I have also noticed clover growing in the unmowed yards down my block. The newspa-

per stated that we should leave an area of clover unmowed because it provides both nec-tar and larvae that will attract butterfl ies. I really don’t want that clover to grow so tall and then leave it to go to seed and know that there will just be an-other large clover patch in my yard later. So, yes, I did mow it down in those places where I could get to mower to it.

What to do? Weeds? Worms? Butterfl ies? Birds? I guess the answer is ‘yes’ to all of them. Just don’t look for a well kept yard and beautiful flowers when you drive by.

There is a sign on highway 1 about 3.5 miles SW of Allen which is inscribed “Osage Vil-lage.” The question I had after the fi rst time I stopped to read it was “Where?” So I’ve been checking around. The Osage’s in question were said to num-ber 600 people. The visiting group was the Dragoons cross-ing the area on a 200 mile dis-covery ride across Oklahoma. They had historians, artists and fancy horses.

The solders were unique and wore fancy dress uniforms made of wool—impressive but not too bright when you think of hot it gets here. Each com-pany of soldiers was mounted on matching horses and they were quite a sight in the wil-derness of Oklahoma in the 1830s.

Those Dragoons spotted a large group of Osage Indians cleaning buffalo at the edge of present day Allen. It was 1834.

The Indian’s leader was a one-eyed guy named Black Dog—a big old boy that was seven feet tall. I don’t know who was the most impressed with who but it is written that the Osages mainly ignored the soldiers and went on about their work. So much for getting all dressed up and riding matched horses.

Although the Osages lived mostly in NE Oklahoma and the adjoining areas of Kansas and Missouri, they roamed wherever they wished. The dragoons in general were pret-ty impressed at the sight of the Osages although their guy who wrote the journal wasn’t. He didn’t much like Black Dog and his group. He described the band as a shiftless people and they reminded him of wan-dering Gypsies. He also noted that they sometimes went around naked in hot weather further lowering their status in his eyes. Somehow I don’t

think the one-eyed Black Dog could have cared less. He may have thought them foolish to be dressed so warmly.

The expedition of dragoons led to many treaties with some Indians and provided a lot of information about them to the U. S. Government. The survey also provided a lot of useful information about places for future roads and railroad build-ing. In the end, this march of the Dragoons was a disaster. As the soldiers left the Allen area the weather turned excep-tionally hot and the soldiers, wilted in their special dress wool uniforms. Of the ap-proximately 400 soldiers on the expedition, 150 died from heat and typhus but not one from an Indian attack. I have no idea what all those offi cers along on the trip were doing to see about their soldiers. Per-haps too many of these offi cers just went along to do their own

jobs of exploring, surveying (and resume building).

Those who survived strag-gled back to Fort Gibson. They were nearly naked, emaciated, sick and exhausted. Some of the several offi cers along with the dragoons included names like Jefferson Davis, George Cooke, and Henry Leaven-worth (buried near Kingston). The army’s artist on the trip was the famous George Cat-lin. I wonder if the tall Indian Chief, Black Dog, saw the Dra-goon’s return. I would guess that he was not surprised at the outcome of this march.

I think I know how the sol-ders must have felt—at least

the ones that got back. I re-member taking a long three week Bullard-family-vacation out west one July in 1947 in an un-air-conditioned Nash. We looked pretty bad too when we fi nally got home. Luckily no one died.

Have a good weekend and if you decide to ride a horse across Oklahoma this summer you may want to wear some-thing besides a hot wool army dress uniform. Be sure and go to church this Sunday.

It is sad to read the websites of various religious groups. Each one seems to be trying to fi nd a more appealing means of attracting members. They seem to be trying to outdo all the others, like manufactur-

ers, trying to produce a better mouse trap. Do they want to improve their image so they will be more appealing to out-siders?

They change their names, try to adapt their worship and loudly proclaim a celebrity speaker! All their effort is geared to making an appeal to worldly people. Their mes-sage is, “We are what you want a church to be!” and “You will like us!” It appears that preachers and churches are trying their best to change and adapt the church so that it appeals to people out in the world. Are they trying to build a better “spiritual mouse trap”

in order to “to draw away the disciples after themselves?” (Acts 20:30)

Did Jesus operate in such a manner? Did He seek to make His teaching appeal to worldly minded people? He certainly did not! His was a message of change! He said, “Most assur-edly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3) And, “Unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.”(Matt 18:3-4)

Jesus insisted that people must change to be accepted into the church rather than try-ing to change the church so it would be accepted by worldly people. He preached, “Unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” (Luke 13:3) While men may seek to make their churches appeal to worldly people, shouldn’t the Lord’s church call for men to change in order to enter the kingdom and be saved?

The fi rst Sunday in May began service at Harmony Missionary Baptist Church with singing Holy Spirit, Sweet Sweet Spirit, and Yield Not To Temptation. Church Singers sang How Long Has It Been, and Sheltered In The Arms Of God.

Devotional Reading was “Peace in the Pew”, Psalm 85:8-13. Adult Lesson, “Business at Its Best”, was from Acts 6:1-8, Colossians 1:19, and Ephesians 4:16.

The Holy Spirit is available to guide a church through diffi cult times. Join your church in seeking God’s will in every opportunity for service even in times of turmoil. Christ “is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the fi rstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:18.

Youth Lesson was “Choosing To Is On”, Numbers 14:11-20. We are to continually follow God no matter how diffi cult the situation may be.

I’ll Live On and I’ll Be Listening were sung before the morning message. Bro. Clark Christy fi lled our pulpit, a young preacher from Union Valley Church. His message was “Be Willing, Pray and Go”, Acts 8:26-40, Colossians 4:2-6, Matthew 28:19-20. Our mission as Christians is to glorify God. Colossians 3:17: “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.”

Bro. Mike Russell, one of our missionaries, will be speaking to us next Sunday. If you don’t have a church home, we invite you to come hear about his mission trips and preach from God’s word.

We pray you have a good week and may God bless you.

Thank You

Letter to the Editor After reading the article in The Ada News (3/23/12) by Ada Fire

Chief Marion Harris about the role of volunteer fi refi ghters, I was compelled to write this letter. I have never been so insulted and hurt. We have had critics but who would have through the biggest critic would be a fellow fi refi ghter?

I served about 16 years as one of the fi rst volunteers with the Lula Fire Department. I was trained by Valley View EMS in their initial First Responder course. I am now with the Walnut Grove Fire Pro-tection District in Missouri. We are supported by personal property taxes.

The fi re department has evolved over the years and volunteers don’t just fi ght grass fi res and shuttle water. We run medical calls and sometimes we may be on the scene with the patient for a half to one hour before EMS can get there.

We monitor vitals, update EMS on a patients condition while they are coming to the scene, determine if patient needs to be airlifted and often have a helicopter in the air before EMS arrives.

We respond to house fi res and we put that fi re out. We can’t wait for paid departments. We are trained and willing to risk our lives to save someone inside.

We respond to accidents and try to have the patient extricated and back-boarded when EMS arrives.

We respond to search and rescue, car fi res and water rescues. In cases of power outages, we check on our residents and transport

to shelters if needed. We are also storm spotters. When the tornado hit Joplin, Missouri

there were hundreds of volunteers there. We respond to grass fi res and can’t wait for a paid department to

arrive. We can’t save everything but we can give 100%, and we do. The latest statistics state there are about 1,096,250 fi refi ghters of

which 800,050 are volunteers. That is a big void for paid departments to fi ll.

Recently my dad had a medical emergency at church. Kim Johnson and Clark Hansen, EMT from Lula Volunteer Fire Department, were there in fi ve minutes or less.

Why do we do what we do? We do it to save people and property, to make our communities a safer place to live, because this is who we are and what we do. We do it because it is a passion of ours. Would we trade one moment of it for anything? Not a chance!

We do it for that man that felt compelled to send us a thank you note. We do it for those that thank us for coming into an unknown situation to care for her son, even though, as sometimes happens, she lost her child. We do it for that grown son that stops by while we are doing our MDA fi ll the boot drive, drops money in the boot, looks at you with tears in his eyes and says “Thanks for coming out and helping daddy,” even though his dad passed away a short time after he got to the hospital. We do it for the people that come up to us at the local convenience store and thank us for coming to their house the other night.

We do it because we would want someone to respond if it was one of our kids or loved ones.

In closing, Volunteer Firefi ghters of Pontotoc County, hold your heads high. You are a vital part of your community. We put in hun-dreds of hours every year. Sometimes we are out until early in the morning before going to our job. Most people don’t know how much time it consumes, running calls, training, working on equipment and cleaning the station.

People of Pontotoc County, thank your volunteers. You never know when you or your family might need them.

— Dwayne Brooks

May is a busy month, with Mother’s Day, the end of school, and graduation. We have youth graduating from kindergarten, high school, and college. We are proud of all of them. We, as a church, need to support them with our prayers. God has a plan for their lives.

We want to remember our mothers this Sunday. We will be giving each mother a gift and invite you to come with your mother to church.

In our service last Sunday our quartet sang “Where Could I Go But to the Lord.” They have been busy singing in several events this week. God uses them to sing his praises.

Bro. Larry’s sermon was taken from John 15:5-10 and entitled “Maintaining a Vital Connection.” God desires that we live fruitful lives. God not only wants us to bear fruit, He wants us to bear “much fruit.” We discover that we do not

exist for ourselves, but for a higher purpose. That purpose includes knowing God and bringing others to Him. In this context bearing fruit is sharing the love of God in a transform-ing way. It means that our lives have been touched and transformed by the power of God. It wasn’t until Pentecost that the disciples really got serious about bearing fruit. Jesus clearly tells them that they cannot do what the Father needs them to do in their own power. We must know that we are connected to the vine. Once we have become part of the vine, we must learn to “love” in the vine.

How many people claim to be Christians, but show little evidence of Life? They seem to be living completely for themselves. As long as we are content to live for ourselves we will never have much impact upon the world.

Maintaining a vital connection demands attention. God will certainly do His part. Obe-dience is one key. We must do what we know we ought. Our desire must be to know and serve Him with all that is within us. Love is another key. When we truly love God as we ought our actions will follow. We must ask ourselves: “Have I accepted the love of God with all my heart?” If the answer is “yes” then we must now serve Hm with all our heart.

All Allen School families and friends are invited to participate in an

endeavor to help raise awareness and support research through FARA, to find a cure for Friedreich’s Ataxia (FA). FA is a progressive neuro-muscular disorder which affects one in every 50,000 people.

On Monday, May 14, at 10:00 a.m., Allen School students will gather at the Mustang Trail and participate in Walk-for-Awareness to support our student, Sam Brown, who has FA. Several other families who also are dealing with FA will be joining us as well. All families and friends are invited to attend as Allen School students walk together to show support and raise awareness.

FARA Walk-for-Awareness wristbands are available for $1.00 each in the elementary office. Proceeds will go to support FARA research.
