This Week in Azle History

35 Years AgoIn 1980, the Azle High School Choir won the 29th An-

nual Buccaneer Music Festival in Corpus Christi.

BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMANWhether you’re more inclined to pray for rain or do a rain dance,

chances are recent precipitation has encouraged you to double up on your efforts.

Eagle Mountain Lake was 10.5 feet low in February, but between April rains and the resumption of pumping via the pipeline from East Texas lakes, almost half of that deficit has been recovered in the past six weeks.

On Tuesday, April 28, Tarrant Regional Water District officials reopened the boat launch at Twin Points and say they are optimistic about keeping it open throughout the summer.

The launch, touted as the deepest one on EML, was closed in September 2014 when water levels were so low launching a boat there became impossible.

“The rainfall over the last week, combined with our pumping efforts, have made a significant impact on Eagle Mountain's lake level,” TRWD spokesperson Chad Lorance said.

“The lake is high enough now that we can keep the ramp open most, if not all, of the summer. It will depend on how much rainfall we get between now and then, as well as the impact of summer demands and evaporation.”

While rains have helped significantly, TRWD has pumped an av-erage 140 million gallons of water a day into EML since March 6, Lorance said.

He added that pumping into the lake will continue so long as demand remains low.

Why May 9th Really is MaydayBy Monty J. Bennett

Mayday is the term used to request immediate help when facing danger. Mayday! Your help is needed!

Fort Worth voters must vote responsibly in the critical election on May 9th. Early voting has already

started. Citizens of Tarrant County will decide whether a vitally important but largely invisible gov-

ernmental entity should be transparent and accountable.

Decisions of the Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) will affect residents of Fort Worth now and

for many years to come. We cannot exist without water: clean, reasonably-priced, dependable water.

The TRWD’s initial core mission was to provide what’s called “raw” water and flood control. (TRWD

sells water to municipalities, and they sell it to you.) This is a vital responsibility. However, the TRWD

is a poster child for “mission creep.” The powerful agency holds taxing, spending and eminent domain

powers. It argued that flood control required it to fund levies but then changed to funding “economic

development.” Today, the TRWD’s discretionary fund spends 250 percent more on private development

than on providing safe water for public use and they have increased your water rates 64 percent over

the last decade. A more accurate name for the TRWD is the “Tarrant Regional Private Development

Piggy Bank.”

Demands for greater transparency are growing and your vote is the best way to be heard. Director

Mary Kelleher was elected in 2013 and pledged to pull back the curtain on the TRWD’s dealings.

Although she is a sitting director, she has been denied access to official records and was censured for

having opinions different from her colleagues. Two commissioners, Marty Leonard and Jim Lane,

should have stood for election last year. Article XVI, Section 30 of the Texas Constitution plainly and

unambiguously provides that no TRWD Director may serve a term in excess of four years. The direc-

tors arbitrarily extended their own terms in office (under cover of a bill in the legislature ostensibly

saying that elections should be “moved” to be in odd numbered years). How would you feel if your

own city councilmember arbitrarily decided he or she didn’t want to face the voters and just moved his

or her election to the next year?

The TRWD has attacked me, claiming I am only upset because they propose to use their powers of em-

inent domain to put a pipeline through property belonging to my mother. It’s true, that got my atten-

tion – and has largely been resolved in my favor, but as I’ve scrutinized their operations, I have become

appalled. They have labeled me as a “Dallas businessman” and conveniently fail to acknowledge the

fact that my company owns the downtown Hilton Hotel and the Ashton Hotel, so I have been paying

taxes in Fort Worth for 20 years. They claim I want to ‘control your water.’ What on earth would I do

with a bunch of water? All that’s just silly. The TRWD has run over citizens for decades; I just happen

to be blessed with the resources to be able to fight back.

Moreover, I am committed to Fort Worth. I love Fort Worth,

and I put my money where my mouth is. Interestingly, they

never mention the five, yes FIVE, Dallas billionaires who

are financing their campaigns. To my knowledge, I’m the

only Dallas resident supporting the challengers.

I am calling “Mayday!” to encourage voters to learn what

the issues and stakes are, and to compare the two incumbent

directors with the independent, civic-minded challengers,

Craig Bickley and Michele Von Luckner. These candidates

have publicly promised to bring more transparency to the

TRWD’s proceedings and to actually listen to the citizens of

Fort Worth. I ask the citizens of the TRWD’s service area to

call their friends who are eligible to vote and ask them to

support the reform candidates. Shout “Mayday!” spread the

word and be heard by exercising your constitutional right to vote for change and reform.

Jones, saying he felt the council had to start somewhere, moved to approve the zoning change. McClure echoed his sentiments in seconding the motion, saying, “I don’t know how to look at the possibilities without taking a step tonight.”

Council member Lee Barrett voted for the measure along with Jones and McClure.

Council members Chambers, Paul Crabtree, Rouel Rothen-berger, and Mayor Alan Brun-drett voted against the measure.

Other businessDuring the meeting, the

council also:• declined to waive a deposit

• approved the donation of the Azle Fire Department’s 1991 Quint ladder truck to the Texas Disaster Response Pool, who will refurbish the truck and deploy it to Bosque County to enhance fire protection in the community and in support of Camp John Marc.

• approved an amendment designating a no parking area as well as prohibiting smoking and the use of electronic vaping devices in designated areas dur-ing city events at Central Park.

Heavy rains in the area moved the 2015 Relay For Life of Azle from Cen-tral Park to the Azle High School gym Friday, April 24, but cancer survivors,

their caregivers, and loved ones took it all in stride. Amid much pomp and cir-cumstance, a large crowd laughed and cried together while having fun, eating, walking laps, and honoring loved ones

who have succumbed to the disease. The annual event raises money for the

American Cancer Society.

Azle Police Blotter

by Jackie “JJ” JoyThe Azle Senior Center is

making waves with technology, now boasting its own Facebook page. Just type “Azle Senior Center” in the search bar to find it.

Plus, computer training and education classes, taught by Billy Dycus, are also available.

Eventually, computers at the center will be available for free-time activities along with other new open activities for members to enjoy.

Recently, the center held an open house with a tri-fold pur-pose: to celebrate the upcoming 29th anniversary of the center, to welcome incoming Director Bill Reed, and to show appre-

ciation to Sue Turnipseed for leading the center as interim director.

The members of the Azle Senior Center appreciate all the businesses who donated door prizes for the open house. The tremendous support of the business community means so much to the success of the Cen-ter and to its members.

A raffle was held during the Open House for a skill saw gen-erously donated by Hometown Building Center of Springtown.

In addition, Alma Torres of Senior Assist, Billy Hurley with Dignity Memorial Servic-es, and Delanie Hughes from Health Masters Home Care made special presentations to enlighten and help our senior

citizens.All area senior citizens are

invited to join Bill, Sue, and the rest of the members for a time of fun, food, fellowship and friendship.

Be sure to watch for upcom-ing events and happenings in the weekly Senior Spotlight.

Senior SPotlight

by carla noah stutsmanHe wasn’t a golfer.But the late Sid Dechert be-

lieved Cross Timbers Golf Course was an asset to the Azle community, and he motivated a group of volunteers who worked countless hours at the course doing everything from weeding and other landscaping chores to painting fences.

In his honor, the Sid Dechert Memorial Golf Tournament is held at the course each year, and proceeds are dedicated to providing improvements at the course above and beyond those provided for through the city’s annual budget.

Golfers will tee up at 8 a.m. Saturday, May 2 for the shot-gun start of the 9th Annual tournament.

The field is limited to 120 en-tries at $60 per person.

The Florida Scramble-style tournament features closest- to-the-pin, putting, and hole-in-one contests.

The $25,000 hole-in-one con-test, which is split 50/50 with the Sid Dechert Foundation, is spon-sored by O.Z. Helmer, Jr., DDS.

Prizes will be given to the first and second place teams.

State Representative for Dis-trict 99, Charlie Geren, is the event sponsor.

The 2015 Tournament com-mittee is comprised of James Winstead, Gene Hargrove, and Ken Haas.

To date, proceeds from the annual tournament have pro-vided the golf course with a

new pavilion; replaced siding and roofing on the cart barn; purchased water fountains for the pond at the clubhouse; built a low water crossing on the 18th fairway; purchased a stor-age building and a flat-screen TV for clubhouse use; and wid-ened, upgraded, and extended several cart paths throughout the course.

And if, like Sid, you’re not a golfer, that’s okay. Just wear cool, loose-fitting clothing and comfortable shoes. And bring your checkbook.

It’s called Magic: The Gath-ering, and it’s wildly popular.

Beginning May 1, teens in junior high and high school are invited to gather weekly on Fridays at 4 p.m. in the Teen Room at the Azle Memorial Library to play.

Anyone can learn the game, strategies, and play with friends – be sure to bring your own decks.

Magic: The Gathering is a turn-based game that fosters social interaction, community building, prediction, strategiz-ing, and critical thinking skills.

Social and behavioral scien-tists have begun studying and documenting the benefits of game-based learning for stu-dents.

According to the game’s web site, Magic is a tradable card game (TCG) where you build your collection of cards by trading with your friends, assembling decks of cards, and battling against an opponent and their deck.

You cast powerful spells and summon monstrous crea-tures aiming to knock your op-ponent down from 20 lives to

zero. The game is constantly

changing as new cards are re-leased throughout the year.

As you get new cards, whether from these new sets or through trading with your friends, you can continuously update your decks and discov-er a whole new game.

You can play Magic: The Gathering a number of ways – from your console to your din-ing room table to your desktop PC.

And now, you can play at your local library, as well.

Friday Night ‘Magic’ comes to Azle Memorial Library May 1

Anna Laura Cutshall passed away peacefully on Monday, April 27, 2015. She was 93 years old.

Anna was ready to meet her Lord but wanted to see her great grandson first, who was born on Sunday. She smiled.

Funeral service will be held at 2 p.m., Saturday, May 2, 2015 at Ash Creek Baptist Church, Azle. Interment to follow at Ash Creek Cem-etery. Visitation from 6 – 8 p.m., Friday, May 1, 2015 at Biggers Funeral Home in Lake Worth.

In lieu of flowers donations may be made to United We Build – Ash Creek Baptist Church, 300 S. Stewart, Azle, TX 76020.

Born in Dicey, between Azle and Weatherford, An-na’s family moved often but returned to settle in the Azle area when she was 10 years old. When she was in the 8th grade at Bluff Springs, she was often called on to instruct the class while their teacher, who was also the basketball coach, practiced or went to games with the boys. In 1938 she graduated from Azle as valedictorian and attended the University of Texas on a scholarship.

She came home to study at NTAC in Arlington and NTSU in Denton so that she could help care for her mother.

When WWII began she worked for the Army Air Depot in San Antonio, later transfer-

ring to Carswell A.F.B. in Fort Worth and then the War Assets Administration and the C.A.A. After her marriage to Harry in 1946, and after 18 years of civil service work, she passed the exams with the highest score to become the Postmaster at Azle in 1961 so that she could be closer to her home and chil-dren.

The Azle area grew and, in 1970, Anna became the first woman Postmaster of a First Class office in Texas, where she served for almost 20 years.

Anna was an asset to the Azle community and served as chairman of the first American Cancer Society drive in Azle, was a board member of the Azle Chamber of Commerce, Worthy Matron of the Order of Eastern Star, a member of the National Association of Post-masters and a member of Busi-ness and Professional Women in Azle. She has also been a faithful member of Ash Creek Baptist Church for 78 years, teaching Sunday School for 50 of those years.

Anna, with her husband Harry, enjoyed traveling throughout all the 50 states. They loved to see the sights but, especially, to visit friends and relatives.

Her family would like to thank her caregiver, Brenda Miller, and the staff at Silver Creek Assisted Living, for the compassionate care given their mother.

She is preceded in death by her wonderful husband of 55 years, Harry E. Cutshall, Jr.

Survivors include her brother, Simon A. Snider and spouse Caroline; her son, Jack Cutshall; her daughter and spouse, Mary Hunt and Rollie; grandchildren, Travis Hunt, Meghan Hunt Doolan and spouse, Brian; and her great-grandchildren Meagan Cutshall and Rowan Doolan.

Martino is among approximately 32,000 students, faculty, professional staff and alumni to be initiated into Phi Kappa Phi each year.

Membership is by invitation and requires nomination and approval by a chapter.

Graduate students in the top 10 percent of the number of candidates for graduate degrees may also qualify, as do faculty,

professional staff, and alumni who have achieved scholarly distinction.

The Society has chapters on more than 300 college and university campuses in North America and the Philippines.

Its mission is “To recognize and promote academic excellence in all fields of higher education and to engage the community of scholars in service to others.”

Samuel B. Henderson, Azle High School Class of 2011, will graduate May 9 from the Citadel Military College of South Carolina.

Nurses.The honoree from Texas

Health Azle is Robert Potter, B.S.N., R.N., CEN, emergency services director.

“Great 100 recognition means a lot to our nurses because it is coming from their peers,” said Valarie Gilbert, RN, chief nursing officer at Texas Health Azle. “Fellow nurses who have stood in your shoes and worked your shifts have said you are one of the best.”

The DFW Great 100 Nurs-es Inc. annually sponsors the “DFW Great 100 Nurses” to honor registered nurses in the area who exemplify excellence in the art and science of nurs-ing. Nurses are nominated by their peers, and may only be named to the list once in their career.

“The Great 100 Nurses are the best of the best, and we are honored to have Robert recog-nized as one of those superstars

as he leads our very busy emer-gency department here at Texas Health Azle,” said Bob Ellzey, FACHE, hospital president.

“Our nurses set a high stan-dard for each other, an example of excellence that is made up of hard work and dedication for every patient, every day.

“I am proud that Robert’s skill and leadership was rec-ognized among the best in our region.”

In all, Texas Health Resourc-es system hospital nurses won 29 of the 100 spots on the cov-eted list, the most for any health system in North Texas.

The “Great 100 Nurses” were honored at the 25th annual gala on April 28 at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas.

OPINION

For those of us who were teenagers in the 1970’s, that title put the sweet falsetto harmonies of the Bee Gees in our minds’ ears.

Those of a different age may still think of that song, but it won’t be nearly as nostalgic and heart-warm-ing. Most everyone tends to think of the music of their mid-teens to early-twenties as the best ever.

We also tend to think, with exceptional fondness, of the friends we make during that time period. But rare is the friend from our teens with whom we remain close through the decades.

My father-in-law is one of my heroes for many rea-sons. Certainly part of it is because of the way he has treated me for 31 years. Most of it is because the way he has lived his life in front of me. He is a man of immense integrity and deep wisdom. He also is one of the best ex-amples of one of my highest values: being a lifelong learner. At age 85, he buys and sells cattle online, com-municates via text message, and has a Facebook account that he set up him-self a few years ago after he Googled the instructions.

His Facebook posts are rare, but his post from a few days ago provided me with the inspiration for this column. I won’t post it verbatim, but in it he said, “Just buried the best friend I ever had.”

In the post, he went on to say how he had met this friend in 1946 (at age 16) and they had remained close friends

Dear Editor,We have lived in the Azle area for

almost 30 years and for the most part love it.

However, since the road we live on

Remember the Johnny Cash song, “A Boy Named Sue”? How about a real boy grow-ing up named Pearl?

This was the early life of Pearl Zane Grey who, accord-ing to his biographer Frank Gruber, was the Father of the Western story, perhaps the most popular author of the 20th century and writer of the best Western novel ever! That novel was Riders of the Purple Sage.

During a ten year period from 1915 to 1924 a Zane Grey book was in the top ten bestseller list nine times, miss-ing only the year 1916. His all-time best-selling book, which still sells, is Riders of the Purple Sage.” In fact, while reading the biography, I ordered the famous novel.

The Zane family – the writer's mother's Danish heritage – migrated to England and then to America. His ancestors fought in the American Rev-olution. A relative created the town of Zanesville, Ohio where Pearl grew up. (Yes, the family called him Pearl,

and that was the name he went by all through school. He was a popular baseball player.)

The Gray family, which actually spelled it with an ‘a,’ was Irish. Lewis Gray, Zane's father, was a dentist who had moved to Zanesville. There Pearl Zane Gray was born in 1872, one of four children, three boys and a girl. He was the one who changed the spelling to Grey with the ‘e’ and dropped his first name when he began to write.

Becoming a dentist at the insistence of his father, the young Zane moved to New York, determined to be a writer after reading dime novels all through high school. He pulled teeth in the daytime and wrote at night.

In 1900 the 28-year-old Grey met seventeen-year-old Lina Roth, called Dolly, and they corresponded for five years. She encouraged his writing, but the one article called “A Day on the Delaware” about fishing that he sold in 1902 for $10 would not support a wife. He still was a dentist when they married in 1905.

Dolly encouraged Grey to write his

first novel, and with a small in-heritance from her family paid for him to pub-lish his first book, Betty Zane, about his Revolutionary War ancestor. They never earned back what it cost to print it.

When his third book fi-nally was ac-cepted for pub-lication, Grey

quit dentistry and began writing full time. He continued to write articles for sports magazines as well. Dolly praised her husband's work and never criticized. She hand-copied his manu-scripts to send off to publishers.

An old hunter named Buffalo Jones came East in 1907 and invited Grey to visit his home in Arizona to experi-

ence life there. This visit became the turning point in his career. He had to pay his own way with some of Dolly's inheritance money, but she agreed.

During the several weeks he was gone, he took notes, interviewed people, even studied the plants and learned the dialect of the area. He heard about outlaws, wild horses, In-dians. Back home, he began writing Western novels by hand at the kitchen table. The books were not accepted at first, and he became depressed by comments of literary critics.

Finally, in 1910 with The Heritage of the Desert, he succeeded big. The book sold 31,000 copies. By 1912 he wrote Riders of the Purple Sage, and readers loved it. In 1918 three of his novels were filmed for the motion pictures, and he received $25,000 for each. Soon he earned over double that.

By 1913 he was a rich man, earning $100,000, the equivalent of a million dollars in later years. He loved to fish, and he traveled the world in search of trophy catches. During the 1920s he was earning $400,000, sometimes

$500,000 per year. His fame was at its greatest in 1925, and his books were being filmed for the movies.

His earnings slowed down, how-ever, during the Depression in the 1930s. He died Oct. 23, 1939 of a heart attack. Harper's, his publisher, had 20 of his books still unpublished, and so kept releasing them through the years.

Zane Grey was the author of more than 90 books, some of them origi-nally published serially in magazines. He wrote not only Westerns, but two hunting books, six children's books, three baseball books, and eight fish-ing books. Sales of his books total more than $40 million. One of the first writers to become a millionaire, he in-spired many to write Westerns.

The name “Zane Grey” has become synonymous with Westerns; aren't we all glad that he dropped “Pearl” as his moniker!

Zane Grey, prolific Western writer, overcame struggles

PAGES FROM WESTERN HISTORY

Retired history professor J’Nell Pate of Azle has authored several books, many of which

are on sale in the lobby of the Azle News.

How deep is your love?for all these years. Both of them spent a lifetime in farming and ranching and were each other’s go-to friend when any kind of help was needed.

Did you catch that? This close boyhood friendship lasted almost 70 years!

I doubt that these two manly men would have ever said that they “loved” each other, but that is really what it takes to make a 70 year friendship – 85-year-old manly men do not take the time to post to Facebook about “the best friend I ever had” if they only share admiration or respect. It is only deep love that draws out the best in us.

My friends, we have so cheapened the word “love” when it only refers to at-traction or emotion. Jesus said, “My command is

this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.” (John 15:12-15)

Our loves matter so much to God that He gave us the perfect example of deep love in sending Jesus to die for us – His friends.

So, how deep is your love?

LIFE MATTERSGerry Lewis

Why I now hate Stone Mountain, Georgia

Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and admits he finds Dave Ramsey kinda smug.

Letter to the editor

just happens to be Dunaway Lane we would like to know why people insist on speeding past all of us that live here with no regard of the 25 mph speed limit that is posted at both ends of our road!

It is difficult to even safely get our mail from the road edge and the post-man has also voiced his fear of getting hit while trying to deliver it.

We have seen some scary moments when our high school young people

try to use this road to run on early in the morning.

All of us have busy schedules to keep, but if this was the road that you called home on, would you like it to be a speedway?

To those of you who do use respect when driving in city limits we do deeply appreciate it!

Edwin Hetrick Azle

Please stop treat-ing Dunaway Lane like a speedway!

I had done almost everything I usually do while waiting for the Bride to get ready for church – found the iPad and lesson literature, listened to Get the Led Out on KZPS, pre-

pared the coffee travel mug – when she said she was almost ready.

That meant 10 more minutes at least, of course, so I decided to check the bank balance. That’s weird; it was way lower than it should’ve been.

We had been talking about how little charges peck away – why, yes, Dave Ramsey’s financial theory is taught at our church – and this must be one of those instances.

A list of pending debits included $48.43, $25.20, $54.95 – 14 of them in all.

Wait. “STONE MOUNTAIN-GAUS”? What’s that?

One of those things that you think will never happen to you, had hap-pened to us. Oh, we’d been hit by a drunk driver and I had a little brother

die of cancer, but, for the most part, that low-percentage bad stuff had hap-pened to someone else. But here was another one: Someone had stolen my banking information.

We went to the bank the next day. The kind lady clearly had done this before as her what-a-way-to-start-a-Monday sigh belied. She pulled up our account online as we assured her we had never been to Stone Mountain, Georgia.

The bank lady said, “We tried to tell ya’ll that we were concerned about your account.” She said they called us – using a number that was at least 15 years old. “It’s important that the bank have a current number for you.” We fixed that right there.

She added, “We also sent you a let-ter.” We had casually read it, we said, but thought it was just a typical notice of the reissuing of a new debit card. “We stopped your card,” the bank lady continued which explained why it was declined at Schlotzsky’s ear-

lier. (I thought it was because we went crazy and not only bought a large but deluxed it with extra wads of meat. [I highly rec-ommend that, by the way.])

She began printing out a series of paper-work. That’s when the ceil-ing fell in.

Really. Right behind us, tiles fell from

above, damaged by the previous night’s storm, causing a cacophony.

The bank lady began talking on the phone as the ceiling repair guys fired up a giant wet-vac three feet from us. Occasionally we could hear snippets of “fraud department” and “already

approved” while a cast of characters scrambled around us – scruffy workers picking up plaster, business suit-clad bankers rushing around with forms, a Grant Wood couple sitting stoically on a bench by the door. It was like a Fellini movie. Or David Lynch.

Finally, things began to sort out. I signed and addressed 14 different pieces of paper – “Each incident needs its own report” – and handwrote my narrative on the back of one of them.

The Bride read what I wrote and told me I had the timeline wrong – it took me awhile to decipher what she was saying with the wet-vac din still ring-ing in my ears – so I scratched through a few things before my confession was complete.

Then came the lesson. The bank lady said there were a number of ways my information could’ve been stolen. She showed us a printout of the illicit charges.

“These here,” she said, “at the Chevron. They probably offered to

fill people’s tanks for $20 then just swiped the card.

“And these Kroger charges, they are almost certainly gift cards.” There were three $54.95 duns and another for $59.18. I got no solace knowing some Georgia hillbilly was eating at Cracker Barrel on my dime.

Our account was sucked down to $81.61 after other debits were noted, including several Walgreens’ deduc-tions.

The good news, she said, was that we might have caught it in time, that we might get some of the debits back.

We staggered out of the bank to a nearby restaurant where we ate big breakfasts. The Bride paid – with cash.

So, we learned a few things, mainly that, yes, it can happen to you. And, I’ll tell you one more thing: I’m never going to Stone Mountain, Georgia.

Wednesday, April 29, 2015 Azle News OPINION 9A

With barely more than a month left in the r e g u l a r session of

the Texas Legislature, it’s time for the House and Senate to do whatever can be done to reach an all-points agreement on House Bill 1, the state budget for fiscal years 2016 and 2017.

A widely reported sticky area in the estimated $211 bil-lion budget is over which taxes to cut and how much to cut. House and Senate conferees will meet this week. From both ends of the Capitol, the budget has a ways-and-means inertia to it, with House leaders push-ing for cuts in the state sales tax rate and the state franchise tax. Senate leaders favor more em-phasis on cutting homeowners’ property tax rates, a job tradi-tionally in line with the normal functions of local governmen-tal bodies.

School districts, for example,

get most of their revenue from local property taxes, and under the Senate plan, the state would have to make up for revenue lost to property tax cuts. The House plan, touted to provide some $5 billion in tax relief through other means, includes the first-ever reduction in state sales tax, with a 0.30-cent re-duction in rate from the current 6.25 percent to 5.95 percent. Wherever such matters settle, the state’s checkbook must bal-ance. Tax cuts will have to be “paid for” by corresponding cuts to budget items, such as health care, education, trans-portation and public safety.

Last week, House Speaker Joe Straus and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick picked five members each for the conference com-mittee on HB 1: House Ap-propriations Chair John Otto, R-Dayton; Rep. Trent Ashby, R-Lufkin; Rep. Sarah Davis, R-Houston; Rep. Larry Gonza-les, R-Round Rock; and Rep. Sylvester Turner, D-Houston;

and Senate Finance Chair Jane Nelson, R-Flower Mound; Sen. Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa, D-McAllen; Sen. Joan Huffman, R-Houston; freshman Sen. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham; and Sen. Charles Schwertner, R-Georgetown.

Abbott challenges haze ruleGov. Greg Abbott on April 22

submitted comments to the fed-eral Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Planning Section over the agency’s proposed re-gional-haze rule.

Abbott said the EPA’s pro-posed action “is unlawful on multiple fronts, and perhaps most egregiously it would im-pose a $2 billion burden in compliance costs and threaten the reliability of Texas’ energy grid — without any discernible benefits.”

The governor is arguing that the EPA: (1) does not have the authority to regulate “invisible” haze; (2) oversteps its statutory authority by imposing a com-

p l i a n c e cost on T e x a s ; (3) dis-c r i m i -n a t e s a g a i n s t Texas by imposing a differ-ent stan-dard than it has on Cali-f o r n i a ; and (4) is bas-ing the proposed

rule on outdated data from 2009.

Senate OKs body camera billThe Texas Senate on April

23 passed SB 158, legislation authored by Sen. Royce West, D-Dallas, that creates a frame-work for the use of body cam-eras by police officers.

The cameras, to be worn by

officers to record interactions between them and members of the public, may help “restore credibility and trust in our law enforcement agencies,” West said.

While West’s bill does not mandate that police depart-ments adopt the use of body cameras, it does create a grant program at the Office of the Governor that local law en-forcement agencies can apply for to help offset the cost of purchasing equipment.

During floor debate, West said that documenting en-counters between police of-ficers and citizens reduces complaints against police, incidents of lethal force and lawsuits against law enforce-ment. “People act different on camera,” he said.

Injection well hearings planned

Southern Methodist Univer-sity on April 21 announced an SMU-led seismology team has

found that “high volumes of wastewater injection combined with brine extraction from nat-ural gas wells is the most likely cause of earthquakes occur-ring near Azle, Texas, from late 2013 through spring 2014.”

On April 24, the oil and gas industry-regulating Texas Rail-road Commission directed the agency’s hearings division to initiate proceedings requiring the operators of two disposal wells in the area of Azle, 17 miles northwest of Fort Worth, to “show cause” why the in-jection permits for the wells should not be cancelled and the wells ordered shut-in, due to an alleged connection raised by new seismic research between ongoing operation of the wells and seismic activity in the vi-cinity.

Lady Hornets win softball district title againPlayoffs start at home

against Carter-Riversideby maRk k. CamPbellGoing into the April 21 game

against Brewer, the Lady Hor-net softball team knew a victo-ry meant another district cham-pionship.

Azle (23-2, 13-1) jumped ahead and quelled a late Lady Bear rally to win the game and 5-5A, 10-8.

That contest was followed up – eventually, after even more rain this April – with a regu-lar season-ending 12-6 victory over Wichita Falls Rider on Se-nior Night April 25.

Those successes bumped Azle up a notch in the 5A Texas Girls Coaches Association poll, to fourth.

The Brewer game was the

keystone for the title; a loss could have meant an extra game to break a tie at the top of the standings.

That didn’t happen.In White Settlement, Brew-

er scored the first run then Azle got the next 6, building a 6-1 advantage for Lady Hor-net pitcher Makenzi Harris (12-1).

When the Lady Bears drew to 6-4 at the end of five innings, a 4-spot for AHS was enough to clinch the game.

Azle belted 16 hits – every one a single – as Bailee Carter and Rebekah Teel both had 3.

Sarah Brown and Samantha Tittle collected 2 RBI apiece; Teel, Carter, and Harris had 1 each.

Trevor Russell

Hornets hang on with Brewer victory

Young wrestler nationals bound

Trevor Rus-sell, a member of the Azle Wres-tling Team, has reached the big time.

By winning both freestyle and Greco-Ro-man competi-tions in the TXU-SA national dual team qualifier in Frisco, the Forte Junior High sev-enth grader now owns a spot on Team Texas.

In Indianapolis in June, Russell will compete in the schoolboy di-vision. Azle High School coach Chris Allen said, “We are proud of Trevor for mak-ing the national team to get to wrestle the toughest kids in the nation at his age group.”

The coach said Russell has been competing for Azle for years.

Cadet and junior divisions can reach the nationals event in

Fargo, North Dakota with suc-cess at the Body Bar qualifier in May.

A top two finish there will advance athletes – as part of a USA squad – to a competition in either Turkey or France this summer.

The baseball Hornets got in just one game in the past week – a 5-1 victory over Brewer.

That win kept alive faint playoff hopes for Azle (8-10, 4-7).

“If we win out, then we could be in,” Coach Anthony Barron said. “But we’d need some help from other teams.”

AHS never trailed in White Settlement against the Bears; the Hornets scored twice in the top of the first inning.

From there, winning pitcher Tommy Kay took care of busi-ness with a complete game 3-hitter.

The Hornets got just 4 hits, but it was enough. Trey Ramos singled and stole a base; he and Dylan Robinson got the only RBI.

A 5-5A game against Wichita Falls Rider has been postponed twice because of weather. A Bo-swell game was bumped, too.

BI-DISTRICT!Azle vs.

April 30, 7 p.m.Game 2: at Carter-Riverside,

On Senior Night – delayed one day thanks to rainy weather – AHS steamrolled visiting WF Rider 12-6, scoring in each of the first 5 innings.

Carter had 3 hits again – 2 were triples – and scored 3 times.

Samantha Bradley, who also pitched the final 4 innings,

cranked home run No. 6 and also doubled.

Valarie Matlock, Raelyn Temple, and Teel also swatted two-baggers as the Lady Hor-

nets tallied 14 hits.Other playoff-bound teams

out of 5-5A were Saginaw, Brewer, and Saginaw Chisholm Trail.

Six from Azle heading to Texas Tech oval with dreams of state

Off to Howard Payne

Lady Hornet Ayden Thomason (center) finished second at the District 5-5A meet to earn a spot at the Region I meet set for Texas Tech May 1-2. Photo by Mark K. Campbell

by MARk k. cAMpbeLLTwo district champions and

four runners-up are off to Texas Tech University for the Region I Track and Field Champion-ships May 1-2.

Brooke Smith won the pole vault competition in 5-5A at 10 feet, 6 inches.

Girls Coach Melody Dennis thinks Smith can go higher: “She is very capable of vaulting higher than she did at district.”

Katy O’Dell was the 5-5A discus champ. Dennis said at

regional, one girl is ahead but the other seven – including O’Dell – are all clumped to-gether. “If Katy can bust a good one out, she can score points or end up medaling,” Dennis said

The coach noted that high jumper Kaylie Peters and hur-dler Ayden Thomason will need to improve on their silver med-al district efforts at the Lub-bock track.

Dennis said she would like to see Thomason run “a 46” in the 300 race and to see Peters get

to 5-4.Hornet hurdlers Conrad Re-

inhard (110) and Trey Ramos (300) could both make the fi-nals, Coach Mike Norwood said.

He noted that he expects both underclassmen to be “in the mix on Saturday [finals].”

Norwood said, “We want them both to run their best times of the year in the prelims and qualify for the finals – and have a chance to better them-selves in the finals.”

Top 10 PredictionsImpressive prognostications

Starring: Hulk, John Connor, minions, Ant-Man, George Cloo-ney, Ted the gross bear, Pac-man, Tom Cruise, Pixar, Mad Max, Melissa McCarthy, U.N.C.L.E.

... on a scale of 1-10?

Ah, trying to divine what the top 10 movies of the summer will be – always a Movie Man favorite.

This year, curiously, the No. 1 pick has never been simpler.

It’s after that one that things get tricky.

This summer’s biggiesHere’s how the blockbuster

season will likely shake out:1. The Avengers: Age of Ul-

tron (May 1).The Movie Man has already

said that this would be the year of two $1,000,000,000 dollar movies; the shocking success of Furious 7 (Movie Man No. 1134, a 5) will make it three.

Right now, that epic level has been reached just 20 times. But what makes Furious 7’s suc-cess even more amazing is that it’s only the third movie to ever make $1 billion internationally, excluding its U.S. take. The oth-er worldwide billion dollar hits: Titanic (1997, MM #212, 8) and Avatar (2009, MM #856, 7).

There’s nothing this sum-mer to come close to the anticipation of Age of Ul-tron. It’ll make a billion-plus – and be joined by Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Yes, the Avengers will assem-ble – at the box office.

2. Inside Out (June 19)There wasn’t a Pixar movie

in 2014. With that dearth and a strong coming attraction, this animated movie (and No. 4) will dominate the kid market this summer.

3. Jurassic World (June 12)Even today, Jurassic Park

(1993, MM #5 [!], 9, Best of Year) is a wonder to watch. This addition to the dinosaur canon will bring droves to the-aters well into August.

4. Minions (July 10)The solo Penguins of Mada-

gascar (2014, MM #1115, 7) might’ve underperformed, but there’s no way that this spinoff from Despicable Me (2010, MM #885, 7) will misfire.

5. Ted 2 (June 26)The Movie Man got burned

by Seth McFarland last year when he picked A Million Ways to Die in the West as a Top 10-er. It was anything but; however, the earlier (mystify-ing) success of Ted (2012, MM #989, 3) can’t miss. The raun-chy comedy will certainly fare better than McFarland’s failed Western.

6. Fantastic Four (Aug. 7)This is the Movie Man’s big-

gest Top 10 gamble. Previous attempts at this Marvel classic have been okay, but not the me-ga-hits other far lesser comic titles have enjoyed. This time it looks like they’ve finally got it right. And that needs to happen – historically FF is the best of all Marvel titles.

7. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation (July 31)

It’s hard to bet against Tom Cruise even with his off-screen weirdness. And the Mission: Impossible movies are always good.

8. Tomorrowland (May 22)This could do much bet-

ter than eighth. The preview is strange and enchanting but doesn’t really scream summer blockbuster. Still, it’s Disney and they seldom misfire.

9. Ant-Man (July 17)This movie has the buzz that

Fantastic Four should have. It has a Guardians of the Galaxy (2014, MM #1099, 7) vibe and

that movie went berserk at the box office.

10. Pixels (July 24)Most Adam Sandler movies

are cruddy, but his fan base re-mains huge. However, the pre-view for Pixels is terrific and the idea is great – old school video games come to life and attack earth; a ragtag group of former gamers must rise to de-feat the likes of Pac-Man and Donkey Kong.

List busters?A couple of movies could

sneak into the Top 10.The Movie Man is a fan of Me-

lissa McCarthy, and Spy (June 5) might pass $100 million.

And it’s always chancy to bet against a Terminator movie;

even the denigrated last one (Salvation, 2009, MM #826, 6) made $125.3 million in the U.S. So Genisys (July 3) could certainly crack the list.

But the Movie Man thinks a couple of other hopefuls – Mad Max: Fury Road and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. – will fade af-ter decent starts.

Follow the Movie ManHere’s how the Movie Man

plans on mapping out his sum-mer:

May 1 – Age of UltronMay 8 – Hot Pursuit (Sophia

Vergara and Reese Witherspoon in what looks ho-hum at best)

May 15 – Mad Max: Fury Road

May 22 – TomorrowlandMay 29 – San Andreas (The

Movie Man is a huge DeWayne “The Rock” Johnson fan.)

June 5 – SpyJune 12 – Jurassic WorldJune 19 – Inside OutJune 26 – Ted 2July 1 – Terminator Genisys

(a Wednesday release)July 10 – Minions July 17 – Ant-Man July 24 – Pixels (but Pan, a

prequel to Peter Pan starring Hugh Jackman, could have a big opening, too)

July 31 – Mission Impos-sible: Rogue Nation

Aug. 7 – Fantastic FourAug. 14 – The Man from

U.N.C.L.E.Aug. 21 – Criminal (hard to

pass on Gary Oldman and Kev-in Costner)

Aug. 28 – Hitman: Agent 47Sometimes movies get

moved off scheduled dates,

but it’s rare. (Still, this year the Vacation remake got bumped from July 31 to Oct. 9.)

Down the roadThen comes fall. A couple of

anticipated movies loom there – the new James Bond film Spectre (Nov. 6) and the final Hunger Games – which has an outside chance of making a bil-lion, too – Mockingjay – Part 2 (Nov. 20).

But, let’s face it. After the Age of Ultron does its damage, ev-eryone is waiting for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Dec. 18).

Next upAge of Ultron.

The story behind the photograph

On the hunt for the elusive pink bluebonnet

by mark k. campbellThis week’s Home & Garden

special section is filled with photos of a variety of flowers.

Included are some bluebon-net shots that didn’t come eas-ily.

For more than two decades, Paula Campbell has supplied the paper with scores of photos.

For the Home & Garden sec-tion, we wanted to highlight the wide variety of flowers that grow from gardens to road-sides.

In early April, we had been driving south off Highway 183 before veering west from Lo-meta. Wending through back-

roads, our eyes were pealed for white and pink bluebonnets.

Sharp-eyed Paula spied some white ones as we drove 55 mph toward Llano. I pulled over and sometimes traffic whizzed by too close, but she got the shot. (It’s on Page 22 of the special section.)

This pink flower was much tougher, but, again, she man-aged to spot one; after we had waded through creeks and dodged suspicious cows, eyed speeding traffic and carefully trod among cactus and sus-pect cows, north of Llano on Highway 16, a few gentle, pink flowers peeked out among their blue neighbors.

After some cautious squat-ting and camera adjustments...success.

Finally.Shoes in hand, photographer paula campbell negotiates a muddy creek on the search for a pink bluebonnet. Photo by Mark K. Campbell

BY MARK K. CAMPBELLEvery time you turn around,

it seems like here comes anoth-er holiday.

Some special days are cer-tainly worth celebrating.

Others are not exactly his-torically accurate, but they, too, bring time for pause and celebration; they're sometimes known as “observances.”

Then there are those “Hall-mark Holidays” – those created out of thin air.

Federal holidaysGovernment workers are big

fans of federal holidays. There are 10.

Every year begins with a hol-iday – New Year's Day, January 1.

A second January holiday is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day,

Holiday heaven There are lots to choose from – official and

unofficialevery third Monday of the month.

President's Day arrives in February, on the third Mon-day of February. It's officially Washington's Birthday but most folks lump in Abraham Lincoln, too, as well as recog-nizing “the legacy of all presi-dents.”

Memorial Day is the last Monday of May. It originally was created for remembering those killed in the Civil War, but now all the dead from all wars are honored.

Independence Day is July 4 and celebrates the adoption of Declaration of Independence in 1776.

Labor Day is the first Mon-day in September, honoring America's working population, and it used to be crowded with

parades all across the country. Today, it’s casually considered the “end of summer.”

Columbus Day is celebrated on the second Monday in Octo-ber. President Franklin D. Roo-sevelt proclaimed the holiday first in 1937.

Veterans Day is November 11. It began as Armistice Day to remember the dead of World War I. It morphed into honoring soldiers from all wars.

Thanksgiving Day is the fourth Thursday in November, recalling 1621 when the first feast by Pilgrims is believed by some to have occurred.

Christians and non-Chris-tians alike celebrate Christmas Day on December 25.

Recognized holidaysIn America, we have a slew

of holidays that aren't official by any means, but they are cer-tainly popular.

Groundhog Day, February 2, dates back to 1887. A critter's shadow unscientifically deter-mines how many more weeks of winter remains.

Valentine's Day is February 14, of course. The first mass-produced cards were created in the 1840s.

Easter commemorates the resurrection of Christ – dates vary.

Earth Day comes around ev-ery April 22 and has since 1970.

Arbor Day was proclaimed to be the last Friday in April by President Richard Nixon in 1970; however, a similar tree planting event has been ob-served since 1872.

Mother's Day started in 1914 when President Woodrow Wil-son issued a proclamation. It's every second Sunday in May.

Flag Day is June 14 and has been presidentially proclaimed since 1916.

Father's Day is the third Sun-day in June. It began in 1909 and, in 1966, President Lyndon Johnson issued the proclama-tion.

Patriots Day is September 11 to commemorate the 2001 at-tack on America. Citizens are encouraged to observe it as a National Day of Service.

Halloween is October 31.Pearl Harbor Day is always

December 7 and commemo-rates the bombing of Hawaii that ushered America into World War II.

Other holidaysSome days are on the calen-

dar but are not always official.April Fool’s Day is April 1

and is a day for mischief.Saint Patrick's Day is March

17, and it's wise to wear green if you are in elementary school or you might get pinched.

Juneteenth began in Texas and falls on June 19, a date that recognizes the announcement of slavery in 1865 in the Lone

Star State. It's a state holiday in Texas – one of the few states to make that declaration – known as Emancipation Day.

Other Texas holidaysIncluding Juneteenth, Lone

Star State government workers have other options to take off.

All state agencies are closed on “The Day after Thanksgiv-ing” (aka Black Friday) and Christmas Eve, December 24.

Some days are “optional holidays”: Cesar Chavez Day (March 31); Good Friday (var-ies); and Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

State offices keep “skeleton crews” for Texas Indepen-dence Day (March 2), San Ja-cinto Day (April 21), and LBJ's birthday (August 27).

Hallmark HolidaysGrandparent's Day was made

up and deemed to be the Sun-

day after Labor Day.Administrative Profession-

als' Day falls on the Wednes-day of the last full week of April. It was started by the Na-tional Secretaries Association in 1952.

Boss' Day is Oct. 16 and dates back to the late 1970's.

Greeting cards are also avail-able for Chinese New Year (Feb. 19); Teacher Apprecia-tion (May 5); Nurses Day (May 6); and Kwanzaa (Dec. 26).

The ultimate fake holiday is Sweetest Day, the third Sat-urday in October. The “holi-day” goes back to the mid-1960s and appeals primarily to younger people, according to Hallmark.

It is mostly recognized in the Great Lakes region.

If you’re a card sending sort of person, you can stay busy pretty much year round.St. Patrick’s Day is not officially recognized as a holiday in America, but try convinc-

ing lovers of green beer that.

Christmas is by far the holiday when the greatest num-ber of cards are sent.
