Area veterans were hon-ored by the Allen Schools’ students and staff at a pro-gram Tuesday, November 11th.
Although no veterans of World War I remain, the world remembers that armi-stice was signed at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the
11th month of 1918. In 1938, November 11th was made a legal holiday, “a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be there-after celebrated and known as “Armistice Day.”
Veterans Day in Allen be-gan with a breakfast for those
who have served, hosted by the local FCCLA chapter.
The program in the audi-torium began at 9:30 with a welcome, the Pledge of Allegiance and a moment of silence, all led by Taylor Johnson and Tiffany John-son. The National Anthem was played by the Allen High School band, followed by a medley of service songs. The band is under the direc-tion of Mr. Spencer Cody.
Mr. Cody then introduced the 2014 guest speaker, 1986 AHS grad Major Cur-tis Knighten, USAF. After entering as an Airman Ba-sic, Curtis rose through the ranks of the enlisted while completing his education. He became an offi cer in 2001
and continued to rise to his current rank of Major.
Major Knighten currently serves as the Chief of Ad-vanced Programs, 552nd Op-
erational Support Squadron, 552nd Operations Group, 552nd Air Control Wing, at Tinker Air Force Base, Mid-

Failed School Cooperative Seeks to Assess Former Members
Three Area School Among ThoseThe financially failed Oklahoma Schools Property/Casualty
Cooperative has sent out assessment notices to 56 of its former member schools in an effort to collect $720,319—the amount it estimates will be needed to pay off current and anticipated future claims and debts.
Leaders of some school districts are concerned the assess-ments may be illegal and are withholding payment. Allen, Holdenville and Stuart are among 56 school districts that receive assessment notices. Several have turned the notices over to school attorneys and asked for legal advice on how to proceed.
The assessments range in amounts from an $890.71 bill sent to Denison Public Schools to bills totaling $67,860.32 sent to Kiamichi Technology Centers and $66,997.56 sent to Wood-ward Public Schools.
Those assessment amounts may not be huge, but they are large enough to create a hardship for many of the school districts, most of which are small.
Geri Gilstrap, superintendent of Stilwell Public Schools, said it would be a financial blow to her district if it is required to pay the $46,031.57 assessment it received.
“That’s a teacher and an aide,” she said. “That’s large. It would be large for anyone. That’s money that could be directly benefiting children instead of just going out the window.”
Gilstrap is among the superintendents who believe paying the assessments would be illegal.
“We have not belonged to the coop for a couple years now,” Gilstrap said, adding that school districts are legally prohibited from retroactively paying bills from past years.
“I can’t pay a bill this year on . . .claims that came in for a couple of years past,” she said.
Another issue that has been raised is whether school districts are being asked to pay debts of other school districts, which also would raise legal concerns.
Patrick Leonard is the son of Kelly Logan and Kregg Leonard. He has attended Allen for the past 3 years and has played football since he moved here. Patrick plays the position of nose guard and wears the number 3. His plans are to attend college and major in computer technology and to train for the Olympics in power lifting.
Jeffery Dodd is the son of Jeff and Loretta Day. He has attended Allen Schools for the past 3 1/2 years. Jeffery plays cornerback for the Mustangs and wears the number 18. His future plans include attending Welding School and living life to its fullest.
Dakota Nickell is the son of Roger and Jayne Nickell and has attended Allen since pre-k. Dakota wears #5 and plays the po-sitions of wide receiver and safety for the Mustangs. Dakota’s future plans are to attend college next fall.
Justin Deaton is the son of Kenny and Juliet Deaton and has attended Allen Schools since pre-k also. He plays the positions of quarterback and defensive end for the Mustangs. Justin has played all four years of high school and wears the number 2. Justin’s future plans include attending East Central University.

I think the following poem is very appropriate to the present or our Veteran’s Day issue.
A Soldier Died TodayHe was getting old and paunchy and his hair was falling fast,
And he sat around the desk, telling stories of the pastOf a war that he had fought in and the deeds that he had
done.In his exploits with his buddies; they were heroes, every one.
And tho’ sometimes, to a few, his tales became a joke,All his Legion buddies listened, for they knew whereof he spoke.But we’ll hear his tales no longer for our friend has passed away,
And the world’s a little poorer, for a soldier died today.
When politicians leave this earth, their bodies lie in state,While thousands note their passing and proclaim that they were
great.Papers tell their whole life stories, from the time that they were
young,But the passing of a soldier goes unnoticed and unsung.
Is the greatest contribution to the welfare of our landA guy who breaks his promises and cons his fellow man?
Or the ordinary fellow who, in times of war and strife,Goes off to serve his Country and offers up his life?
A politician’s stipend and the style in which he livesAre sometimes disproportionate to the service that he gives.
While the ordinary soldier, who offered up his all,Is paid off with a medal and perhaps, a pension small.
It’s so easy to forget them for it was long ago,That the veterans of our Country went to battle, but we know
It was not the politicians with their compromise and ploys,Who won for us the freedom that our Country now enjoys.
Should you find yourself in danger, with your enemies at hand,Would you want a politician with his ever-shifting stand?Or would you prefer a soldier, who has sworn to defend
His home, his kin and Country and would fight until the end?
He was just a common soldier and his ranks are growing thin,But his presence should remind us we may need his like again.For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier’s part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he’s here to hear the praise,Then at least let’s give him homage at the ending of his days.
Perhaps just a simple headline in a paper that would say,Our Country is in mourning, for a soldier and our friend died
today.
A special thank you to all of the area schools that honored our veterans Tuesday.
I had the privilege of assisting in the funeral ser-vices this past week of two dear friends and World War II heroes; Emery Hutchings and Tommy Treadwell.
There are very few of our World War II veter-ans left and when you are around any of them please take the time to say thank you.
A couple of months ago I attended a gathering of Korean War Veterans from our area. Each year there are far less at the reunion. They too must be remembered and hon-ored.
And then we move to the Viet Nam War. Four of my classmates are bur-ied in the Flanders Field section of our local cem-etery.
Our veterans . . . heroes to be honored and examples to be followed.

Rather than their regu-lar meeting, Allen chapter Beta Sigma Phi members Jill Kaminski, Cindi Sand-ers, Cindy Davis, Tammy Frederick, Terry Riddle, Sue Boyd, Jennifer Smith and guests Wilma Harden, Karla Cramer and Danielle O’Daniel took a road trip to Seminole where they met Marilyn Coulson and her friend Sandy Niblett, both of the Oklahoma City area, at the Grisso Mansion for the Candlelight Ghost Tour.
While waiting for the tour to start the women viewed a video made by the Na-tive American Paranormal Project about the “spirit” activity in the mansion.
Everyone was encouraged to take pictures, advised there might be paranormal activity during the evening, and the tour began! Orbs of lights in pictures, shimmer-ing lights on indoor balco-nies, a camera shutting off then turning back on all by itself, unexplained knock-ing on a door, and cabinet doors opening up behind unsuspecting sorority sis-ters caused lots of goose bumps and laughs!
The tour ended with s’mores around the “camp-fire” while listening to the storyteller’s tale, “It Only Happens Every Seven Years!” It was quite an experience!

Armistice Dayby Cleo Emerson LeVallyWorld War I was supposed
to be the war that ended all wars. Then at the end of World War II, that was supposed to be the war that ended all wars. There have been so many wars since then, it now seems that wars will never end, except at the time of the end of the world.
America did not get into World War 1 until 1917 when a ship named the SS HEALD-TON was torpedoed off the coast of Finland. There is a framed newspaper on display
at the Healdton Oil Museum that has the story of how the United States entered the war. Six days after this ship was blown up, the United States intercepted a communication that Germany was sending to Mexico, asking them to join them in war against the United States. That communication was taken to Congress and war was declared and that is the reason that the United States entered World War I. Kenneth Eck brought this news article
to the Museum and it is on display there.
When this newspaper article was brought to the Museum, a friend and I did some research on the Internet to fi nd informa-tion as to why a ship blown off the coast of Finland had the name Healdton, spelled the same way the town I live in, was named. This research is on display at the Museum. It reveals that Standard Oil com-pany had bought a shipping line, two years before the war,
and renamed all their ships after major oil companies.
When the fi ghting stopped in World War 1, it was the 11th day of the 11th month of 1919 at 11 am and November 11th,, was called Armistice Day. This was the day set aside to refl ect and remember the sac-rifi ces men and women made during World War I, in order to insure peace.
Almost 20 years later, in 1938, Congress voted Armi-stice Day as a federal holiday. Unfortunately, the very next
year, in 1939, the 2nd World War began.
Around the year 1953, peo-ple began calling November 11th Veteran’s Day and Con-gress decided to claim the day as a day to honor all veterans who had served in wars. In 1954, President Eisenhower signed a bill proclaiming November 11th each year as Veteran’s Day.
For many years past, most schools have an assembly at 11 am each November 11th
and honor the veterans of their community. I have attended many of these assemblies.

Wandine (Middleton) Rus-sell passed from this life the morning of November 11, 2014, after complications from a stroke which occurred in January, 2010.
Wandine was born Decem-ber 14, 1927 to Carmen and Leo Middleton, one of four daughters. She accepted Christ at a young age, was baptized in a farm pond at Happy Valley near Holdenville. She remem-bered riding home on a fl at bed truck in the middle of winter in wet clothes. She was a long time member of First Baptist Church in Calvin.
Wandine was a graduate of Holdenville High School
where she was homecoming queen as a senior. While still in high school Wandine met the love of her life, Leon Russell, over an argument concerning a root beer fl oat at Foster’s Drug on main street in Holdenville. She waited for Leon to return from the war and they were married at 510 South Oak on November 25, 1945. They built a home in Non, Oklahoma where they lived the past 69 years.
Wandine sang in a family quartet “The Russells”, she was an accomplished artist, devoted wife, mother, grand-mother and great grandmother and a generous caregiver to many.
She is survived by her lov-ing husband Leon; sisters Reba and Naomi; children Ramona and Victor, Mike and Jan, and Alan and Patty; nine grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; many nieces and nephews including her special niece and caregiver, Debora Noth.
She is predeceased by her parents, her older sister Wilma and her grandson Chris.
Rites Friday for Wandine Russell
If this week is a preview of the winter we have in store, I hope Mr. Bullard scouts out another source of weather-predicting
Another important event is the Community Christmas Party which is scheduled for Sunday evening, December 7th, begin-ning at 5:00. There’s a rumor that Santa will stop by so everyone mark it on your calendar and make it a true community event.
Tom Spillman sang the special at this week’s worship service. His song, titled “Had It Not Been,” was an example of every Christian’s witness to the world. Perhaps someday he will sing a medley of I could never meet you “On Hallelujah Square” and “Walk Over Heaven With You” “Had It Not Been” for Mt. Cal-vary, “The Old Rugged Cross,” and the “Amazing Grace” of Jesus!
Rev. Karch’s sermon was titled “Enduring Sound Doctrine,” and was based in II Timothy 4:2-8. Everyone, Christians and non-Christians alike, will have to face the judgment of God.
With this in mind as we read Holy Scripture, we fi nd that it reproves, rebukes, and exhorts us. At any given reading, we fi nd that some scriptures re-prove what we’ve understood them to say to
us in the past. Another passage may rebuke us—showing where we need to take corrective action in our life. Still another passage may exhort, or encourage, us to continue in well-doing and to live even closer to the Lord.
Sound doctrine provides di-rection and structure for our decisions and our understanding of scripture. The apostle Paul warned that a time would come when people would not endure sound doctrine. Many people want to choose certain scriptures as applicable to their life and ig-nore anything that doesn’t meet their approval.
Christians, if they choose to stand strong in their faith, will face ridicule, opposition, discrim-ination, and other confl ict with the world. We need directions for Godly living, and we need those instructions to be from the right book. Like it not, the Word of God tells us the truth.
Imagine how your life would change if you believed that the Bible meant exactly what it said, and then did your best to live as it told you.
persimmons! His column’s official version of persimmon seed weather predictions in last week’s Allen Advocate, will
come in handy for many of us. I can remember that the spoon predicts a snowy winter but can never unmuddle what the knife and fork means.
Future events at our church include a Thanksgiving style fel-lowship meal after the morning worship service next Sunday, November 16th. Join us for tur-key, ham, and all the trimmings.

Time after time the Baylor quarter-back threw an easy pass left while OU’s #2 Wilson just faded back and only tackling the runner after he advanced a few yards to a sure fi rst down. I thought it was just me but the fans began booing the tepid de-fensive efforts and the play-ers could sure hear them. I didn’t know whether to join in or just be quiet. I knew I was seeing something
oddly historic. The word “Blake” comes to mind. But it was Defensive Coach Mike Stoops receiving the unwanted attention of the Sooner fans. He too was almost apoplectic.
It brought to mind another day, one time in 1962, when I was a student at OU, my wife and I sat in a falling snow on a November day as Bud Wilkinson’s hapless squad took the fi eld against
Missouri. OU was 0 and 5 on that last Saturday be-fore Thanksgiving holiday. But this day was good. This was the day the win-less Sooners turned things around on the muddy fi eld and scored their fi rst win of the year. It was the famous Bud Wilkinson’s last year to coach OU. After leading the OU program to 47 straight wins his string had sort of run out and now the fans were restless. And even though Bud won the last 5 and made a 5–5 season out of it, he still hit the road. He was gone. Many thought OU’s glory days were over. But they weren’t.
OU is going through some hard times now. Last year we lost 3 games but went out on a positive note de-feating mighty Alabama. Whether we save some face and win out this season is probably unlikely but Bob Stoops sure had a worried look on his face last Satur-day. So did about 85,000 fans. One thing I’ve noticed about OU fans, they know enough about football to know when it stinks. I’ll have to agree that I thought I smelled something rotten last Saturday and I think it was wafting up from the football fi eld and not the concession area. Yes folks, OU stunk it up last Satur-day. On a brighter note I did get my season tickets for Sherry Cole’s basket-ball season. We’ll see how that goes. I’m ready to be cheered up.
Meanwhile, the fall deco-rations downtown look great this year. Everyone has been talking about what a great job the dynamic trio, Joy Anderson, Brenda Allen and Beverly Wilmoth do decorating the lamp poles downtown. They also do the decorations at the en-trance to the Mustang Walk-ing Trail. I appreciate these girls and their hard work on behalf of Allen. The polar vortex has hit and winter is
in full show but we did en-joy a rather good fall. Lots of good colors in the Sugar Maples, Oaks and Sumacs. The fruitless Pears on West Broadway are just coming into their own glorious reds and bright yellow. Mums are showing off pretty good in this gloomy weather. So enjoy the lingering effects of fall foliage now as it will soon all be gone—lost to the grey dreariness of hard winter.
While I am on the sub-ject of our town let me take a minute to brag on our city employees. About the only time we think of these people is when we hit a pot hole or in the rare event of a water shut-off. But these guys have had a
busy summer keeping the town’s roadways, parks, cemetery and trails mowed and looking spiffy. I am particularly proud of the job they do keeping our water system up and going and in fact proud of the quality of our city water. Our water is the envy of this area. City Management has seen to it that we also have electri-cal power backup for our water pumping system as well as for the sewer plant. We don’t think about these utilities unless something goes wrong with them.
Have a good weekend and be sure and attend your church this Sunday. Just don’t stand around talk-ing football down there though.

After taking a test, the teacher said we were now going to grade our own papers. Wow! I thought that was great; I was go-ing to make one hundred percent! Unfortunately, we had to grade them accord-ing to answers given by the teacher rather than our own answers. I didn’t make one hundred!! Do some Christians be-lieve they can “grade their own papers” and be one hundred percent pleasing to God? If so, they might be sadly disappointed on judgment day when they discover that God’s answers do not agree with theirs. In fact, Jesus said many who believed they were serving Him, will be lost. “Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many won-ders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” (Matt 7:22-23) Will God judge us by our interpretation of His word; by our feelings or our beliefs? Will He judge us by the teachings of our church or by the teachings of our parents? Will we be judged by the command-ments of men? Can all of us disagree, have different answers and yet all still please God? All of us know the answers to these ques-tions. In John’s vision, when he saw the dead, small and great standing before God’s throne, they were “judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” (Revelation 20:12) What was written in the books? It must have been the words of Jesus because He said we would be judged by His word. (John 12:48)

Following a question and answer period, the veterans in attendance were recog-nized. The program ended with a Veteran’s Day slide-show.
Blake Lawrence, attorney for the cooperative, contends that’s not what is happening.
“No school district is being asked to cover the liabilities of another, but rather these li-abilities were incurred by the cooperative while the coop-erative was actively providing coverage for its members,” Lawrence said. “If the assess-ment was not levied, or not collected, the member school districts will find themselves in a position where each must cover all of its liabilities, and lose the benefits of the coop-erative that it joined.”
Gilstrap said her district has turned the matter over to its attorney.
Yukon Public Schools re-ceived an assessment for $25,340.83. Yukon Super-intendent Jason Simeroth said he was told his district’s assessment would have been $100,000 higher, but the co-operative said it was giving the district credit for $100,000 the district was having to pay on its own to settle a bullying lawsuit that should have been covered by the group plan.
Simeroth said the district has set aside the assessment amount, but he’s unsure what it will do next.
The Tulsa law firm Rosen-stein, Fist & Ringold repre-sents 32 of the school districts on the assessment list, accord-ing to attorney Doug Mann, a member of that firm.
Mann said attorneys with his firm have been advising their school district clients not to pay the assessments until they can be thoroughly reviewed for legality.
Causing confusionThe cooperative’s poorly
worded bylaws have added to the confusion.
The bylaws state that the governing board has the power and duty to “access” members of the pool as deemed neces-sary to protect the financial stability of the cooperative. The failed cooperative’s board has taken the position that the word “access” was a typo-graphical error and the word was supposed to be “assess.”
The board has turned to The Sandner Group of Chicago for assistance in its assessment
efforts.James Woodard, president
of The Sandner Group, said the cooperative isn’t struc-tured the way he would have set it up if he had been in-volved in the beginning, but he still believes the assessments are legal.
What people really need to think about is what happens if the assessment effort fails, Woodard said.
The insurance cooperative would have no money to pay claims, he said. School dis-tricts would be pitted against each other in bitter battles as each seeks to protect its own financial interest.
“That means that those claims will go back to those school districts that incurred those claims,” Woodard said. “They’ll have to pay those claims . . . And they would also have to find somebody who would handle the claim and manage the claim for them as well. And there are school districts that have not had claims. There are school districts that have had their claims paid fully and there are school districts that have not had their claims paid fully. What will happen, in my opinion is that it will then set school district at school district.”
Gilstrap agrees the situation would become unpleasant.
“I go to meetings with 400
and something superinten-dents all over the state, so I know whose bills aren’t paid,” she said.
“I hate that for different schools,” she said. “Maybe they had a roof blow off or whatever and this insurance company has not come in and reimbursed that money because the money isn’t in the pot to do that.”
School districts banded to-gether to form the Oklahoma Schools Property/Casualty Cooperative in 2010 in hopes of saving money on their prop-erty and liability insurance premiums while still obtaining good coverage.
The group self-insurance cooperative lost money on the first three years of its four years in business.
Those losses, coupled with decisions by some districts to drop out of the program, prompted the cooperative’s governing board to stop pro-viding coverage last May, according to Jerry Needham, Oktaha superintendent and chairman of the cooperative’s board of directors.
All but one of the 43 schools that remained when the coop-erative closed switched over to the Oklahoma Schools Risk Management Trust, which is endorsed by the Oklahoma State School Boards Associa-tion.
In an October 22 letter to
former members of the Okla-homa Schools Property/Ca-sualty Cooperative, Needham said the cooperative devel-oped the best estimate it could of the amount needed to pay all claims and debts and phase out the cooperative over two years.
It then calculated assess-ments for each district based on that district’s pro rata share of contributions (insurance premiums) during years when debts were incurred.
Even if all the districts pay the assessments, Needham said he couldn’t rule out the possibility of additional as-sessments if the money raised proves to be insufficient.
“We all joined OSPCC be-cause we believed we were saving our district money while obtaining competent and comparable insurance coverage,” Needham said in the letter. “We are sorry it has turned out that the money you saved will have to be paid to satisfy the claim obligations of OSPCC. In my review of the records and contracts of OSPCC, I did not find nor do I believe any illegal activities occurred. Extreme losses and loss of participation resulted in this situation for the OSPCC participants.”

The Allen Mustangs started the 2014 season with incred-ible promise. Coach Kenny Deaton’s AHS squad was loaded with talented play-ers – especially at the skill positions.
The Pirates got on the score-board when Jefferey Williams raced 65 yards for the initial touchdown. His team faced a third and 7 from their own 35 when the quarterback took the ball to the house. Cyril added a conversion run to deadlock the game at 8-8 at the 8:56 mark.
Allen’s next offensive series ended quickly and badly. The Mustangs lost a fumble and Cyril defender Logan John-son returned the fumble 29 yards for a Pirate touchdown at 7:55.
Cyril’s 2-point try was stuffed by Allen defensive standout Patrick Leonard. The stop kept the score at 14-8 in favor of the Pirates.
The Mustangs hoped to regain the lead with their next possession. And, briefl y, things were looking good for the visitors. Colby Eaker re-turned the kickoff from the 19 to the 33. On the fi rst offensive play, Colten Browning rock-eted 41 yards for a fi rst down at the CHS 29. However, the series fi zzled with a 2-yard loss on fi rst down and then three consecutive incomplete passes.
Cyril gained 14 yards on fi rst down. The Pirates then suffered a turnover on the next play. Justin Deaton sacks the quarterback and forces a fumble. Deaton completes the defensive gem by recovering the Pirate fumble at the CHS 47 with 4:25 remaining in the half.
Allen’s offensive series last-ed only one play. Cyril picked off a Deaton pass at the CHS 29 yard line.
The Pirates took full advan-tage of the opportunity. The CHS quarterback stung the Mustangs with a cross-country 63-yard touchdown run at 3:23. The Pirates also tacked on a conversion run to swell the cushion to 22-8.
The Mustangs suffered an-other turnover late in the second quarter. Colby Eaker was intercepted at the 47-yard line by Logan Johnson – his second pick of the quarter.
Time ran out on the half be-fore there was any additional scoring.
In the third quarter, Cyril pushed the lead to 28-8 with another long touchdown run
A solid win over the We-tumka Chieftains only added to the excitement in Mustang country. Allen then crushed Macomb 48-0 to go 2-0 on the young season. However, a brutal 44-6 loss to the Alex Longhorns in Week 3 was a wakeup call.
The Mustangs rebounded strongly with three impres-sive wins to go to 5-1 on the season. AHS dominated Bray-Doyle 57-12, smashed Strother 58-22 and walloped Waurika 68-21.
With four games left in the regular season, the future
looked extremely bright for Allen. However, the fortunes would turn south with four consecutive losses – including three single-digit heartbreak-ers. Maud started the AHS slide with a 22-14 win at Mustang Stadium on Oct. 16. Maysville then dropped the visiting Mustangs 54-6 for the worse loss of the season.
Allen was facing elimination from the playoffs as Week 9 arrived. That fear was realized when Geary came to town and upset the Mustangs in a 22-14 stunner
With the playoff hopes dashed, Allen hoped to end the 3-game skid and close out the season with a victory at Cyril. Sadly, the Mustangs saw that goal slip away on a 28-22 loss last Friday evening.
The third single-digit set-back in four games brought down the curtain on the 2014 campaign. Here is how the last game unfolded for Allen:
The Mustangs won the coin toss and received the kickoff and began the fi rst series. A 15-yard penalty pushed the visi-tors back to their own 15 yard line. However, AHS immedi-ately ignited a crisp 7-play, 85-yard scoring drive.
Colten Browning set the tone of the series on the sec-ond play. Browning got loose and ran for 36 yards. Senior quarterback Justin Deaton later linked up with Dakota Nickell on a 30-yard pass play to the Cyril 15.
On fi rst down, Colten Fred-erick hammered ahead for 8 yards to the Pirate 7 yard line. Colten Browning fol-lowed with a 6-yard run for a fi rst-and-goal situation at the 1 yard line. On the next snap, Justin Deaton ran a keeper and knifed into the end zone on a 1-yard touchdown run.
Deaton then fired a pass to Dakota Nickell for the 2-point conversion to lift the visitors to an 8-0 lead at the 8:59 mark.
Allen was riding high three minutes into the game. How-ever, the momentum evaporat-ed and the scoring disappeared for the Mustangs.
In the second quarter, the Cyril Pirates seized control. The home team piled up three unanswered touchdowns to open a 22-8 halftime advan-tage.
Mustangs end season on 28-22 loss

by the quarterback. Jefferey Williams sprinted 70 yards for the score. The play came on a third and 10 play from the CHS 30. The Pirates settled for the 20-point lead when their 2-point pass attempt was unsuccessful at the 5:00 mark.
Allen needed little time to answer. Dakota Nickell fielded the ensuing kickoff at the Mustang 19 and galloped 81 yards for a touchdown. AHS failed on a pass play on the conversion try and remained behind 28-14.
The Mustang defense then stepped up with a great series. Dakota Nickell stuffed the first Pirate play for a 2-yard loss. Defenders Patrick Leonard and Joe Howshar followed on the next play with a quarter-back sack for a 6-yard loss. On the next play, the quarterback threw an incomplete pass on the third and 18 situation. That forced the Pirates to punt to Allen and the ball was downed at the CHS 46.
Justin Deaton then led the Mustangs on an offensive scoring drive. Dakota Nickell gashed the Pirates with a 17-yard run on the first snap. Cyr-il was flagged with a 15-yard penalty to move the football down to the Pirate 15.
Dakota Nickell blasted ahead for 9 yards to the 6-yard line. Dakota Nickell got the call again and went 3 yards for another first (and goal) situa-tion. Justin Deaton then ended the series with a keeper for a 3-yard touchdown run at the 2:24 mark of the third period. Deaton then added the conver-sion on a run to close the Allen deficit to 28-22.
Allen had stolen back the momentum with the long kick-off return for a touchdown, the impressive defensive series, and the touchdown run. The Mustangs were now with 6 points – and had more than a quarter to script a magical comeback story. However, the late-season slide would not end with a game-winning drive.
The final play of the game was Justin Deaton’s completed pass to Colten Frederick for 7 yards to the Cyril 35 yard line. For the Mustangs, this was the last play of the 2014 season. But for Justin Deaton and the other Allen seniors, this marks the end of their high school football career.
The two teams finished with similar stats. Allen held the edge in first downs with 14 to Cyril’s 9. However, the Pirates led in total offense, 288 to 280 – with Cyril’s yardage all coming in the ground attack. Allen rushed for 225 yards and passed for 55.
The Mustangs suffered three turnovers, with a pair of inter-ceptions and a fumble. Cyril suffered two turnovers with an interception and a fumble.
Individually, Justin Deaton was 6-for-14 passing for 55 yards and one interception. Colby Eaker was 0-for-1 with one interception.
Dakota Nickell hauled in 2 passes for 38 yards. Colten Frederick added 3 catches for 15 yards. Colby Eaker rounded out the list with 1 reception for 2 yards.
In the rushing attack, Colten Browning was rock-solid with 10 carries for 106 yards. Da-kota Nickell followed with 13 attempts for 67 yards. Justin Deaton added 10 carries for 32 yards and two touchdowns. Colten Frederick finished with 11 rushes for 26 yards.
The Mustangs came up big in special teams play, espe-cially on kickoff returns. Da-kota Nickell was the headliner
with 1 return for 81 yards and a touchdown.
Others on the list included Colten Browning with 2 kick-off returns for 29 yards, Colten Frederick with 1 for 19 yards and Colby Eaker with 1 for 14 yards.
Dakota Nickell added 1 punt return for 12 yards.
Defensively, Patrick Leon-ard was sensational with his
team-high 16 tackles. Dakota Nickell and Joe Howshar fol-lowed with 8 stops each. Justin Deaton recorded 6 tackles, including his QB sack that forced a fumble which he recovered.
In the end, Cyril escaped with the 28-22 victory in a game that was every bit as close as the final score indi-cates.

THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, NOVEMBER 13, 2014 -PAGE 13
Sunday we enjoyed our children singing in the Sun-day School hour. They are getting better each Sunday. Since the 11th is Veteran’s Day, we honored our veter-ans and sang patriotic songs during the congregational singing. Bro. Wayne sang “Just a Place to Hang My Hat Till I Go Home.” for the morning special.
In children’s church we talked about all the things we are thankful for and made a Thanksgiving plaque. We are truly blessed to live in America.
Bro. Larry’s message was entitled “Serve God Faith-fully,” and was taken from Joshua 24:14-24. Each of us must decide whom we will serve. Some would rather not think about such things today. Joshua re-minds us that the decision is so important we need to make it now. Will we choose to serve our own selfish interests or will we serve God. Our choice must be carefully considered. God has revealed Himself in the lives of the faithful.
Our choice will impact every area of our lives.
He is the Sovereign of the universe and will allow no other gods before Him. He is worthy of all our devo-tion. He will bless those who choose Him. His will-ingness to overlook our sin for a time is evidence of His love for us. He will condemn those who refuse Him.
Have you made your choice yet? Are you willing to make a commitment this very day? Joshua called the people to make an immedi-ate decision.
Sunday we will have “The Gastineau’s” in our morn-ing service at 11:00. They are a talented singing group from Ada and I know you will be blessed. Following the service, we will have a Thanksgiving dinner. Ev-eryone is invited.
