Action was taken at the Board's regular May meeting Monday night. Malcolm Minchin, president of the Tiger 100 Club, made the original request at last month's meeting. Board Chairman Gary Clark appointed a committee to review the request and make a recommendations to the Board. The recommendation was to rename the stadium. All of the: members of the conumiittee ap- proved the name change, except for two that abstained. "We appointed them to make a recommendation and they ab- stained?" Clark asked. No reason was given for abstaining from the recommendation. Rountree played ball at CHS under Coach K.P. Gilmore and graduated in 1941. He went to the University of Florida to play ball, but left for the Army. in 1943-46 to serve his country dur- ing World War TI. Rountree then came to UF- Tallahassee, soon to be renamed Florida State University, in 1947. He was cd-captain of the school's first football team, "and he completed the first forward pass at FSU," Minchin said at the April meeting. Rountree was named head coach at CHS in 1949 and served from 1949 to 1954. During that time the team had 25 straight victories. Rountree served as the first principal at Kate M. Smith El- ementary from 1954-57 (there was a brief discussion about his need to discipline certain Board members when they were stu- dents there). Rountree also ran the School Enhancement program (includ- ing Little League and swimming) for 18 years. He went to Lake City to develop a well-recog- nized fitness program. Rountree served state public education at the Department of Education from 1969-92. He also served three terms on the Washington County School Board, served as a deacon at First Baptist Church, served 15 years with the Army National Guard (retiring as a captain), and served sports as president of the Quarterback Club and the Tiger 100 Club. Minchin also asked about the status of planned upgrades to the stadium. "It was top notch in the '70s and we would like it to be top notch again," Minchin said. Buildings Supervisor Joe Tay- lor reported that interior work (including upgrading locker rooms) is awaiting FEMA funds to be used to repair the roof. Once the roof is repaired interior work can begin. Public meeting on use of old VHS planned JAY FELSBERG Managing Editor Vernon City Council approved scheduling a public meeting on old Vernon High School. The date and time will be announced in the future. The soon-to-be-vacated build- ing was the subject of discussion/ at Monday night's regular meet- ing of City Council. City Clerk Sherry Cobb said that School Board member John Hawkin, contacted her about whether the City was interested in space in the building, which will be replaced this coming fall by the new high school next to the middle school. Hawkins asked that the City send a letter stating what interest it might have. Other organizations have apparently expressed interest in space in the building as well. Discussion at first centered on obtaining the cafeteria to use as a community center, but it soon came to the possibility of mov- ing City Hall to the old high school. Council Chairman John Cook and Councilwoman Vivian Brewer both said citizens who wanted to keep the old building for the City, as well as keep City Hall close to the center of Vernon contacted them. Brewer said her phone "rang off the hook" about the high school. "It will be the only thing original to this city after the high- way goes through here," she said. 'It could be a place that Vernon is proud of if we do it right." Mayor James Boswell and Councilwoman Narvel Arm- strong said nobody contacted them about the issue. Cobb said that speaking as a citizen she could see such a project becom- ing a "money pit." that could cost much more than it was worth. Boswell warned that utilities and other costs could make such a plan expensive. Council members will tour the old high school to determine what shape it is in. Funding for new City Hall Boswell also cautioned that state Department of Transpor- tation funds are earmarked for moving City Hall from its pres- See VHS, page 5A [6X~[S) ~R*oin~1 Left to right: Wausau Hall inducted three Saturday.

School Board looking at contract with Chartwells JAY FELSBERG Managing Editor Washington County School Board unanimously approved discussing possible privatization of school lunchrooms with a pri. vate firm. The Board approved entering into negotiations with Chartwells, Inc. at its regular monthly meeting Monday night. If negotiations are successful, a recommendation will be brought before the Board at the June meeting. The Board asked for ideas for improving food service and ways to cut costs at its March meeting. with recommendations due by May 15. Chartwells was chosen over two other private firms. Board Chairman Gary Clark said that one reason that the Board is looking at new ideas is cost. He said the Board has sup. plemented food services to the tune of about $63,000 for Fis- cal Year 2005-06 to date. In FY 2004-05 there were supplements of $101,000. Clark said that the Board expects to provide close to $400,000 in supplements over the next three years. Clark also said that the Board hopes to provide better qual- ity and increase participation by students. Board member John Hawkins said that participation is about 30 percent in District One. "If we can't enhance qual- ity then I'm not interested at all,' said Board Member Vann Brock. "If we can get the best of both worlds that would be great." Clark said that all food service workers would remain employ- ees of the School District even if the Board decided to go with a private firm. Outgoing Washington County Education Association President Laurie Owens expressed her dis- approval of privatizing the lunch program. Owens said she was concerned as a parent about the possible changes. Owens asked the Board to state specifically what the See BOARD, page 5A Prattle..................................I1 B 1 A Weather SObituaries .t Wednesday Mostly cloudy with a 40 percent chance of show.

It was during that time that the first new truck was purchased for the fire department. Miller served on the Wausau Town Council from 1977- 1979 and, again, from 1981-1983. His hobbies include music, hunting and fishing. W.T. was sponsored by Washington County Sheriff Bobby Haddock. *Howard Rogers is sponsored by Wausau Baseball. Rogers was born Jan. 5, 1924, the youngest son of the late Buster and Mol- lie Rogers. As a young boy, He enjoyed riding his horse, swimming in Hard Labor Creek and hunting and fishing with his daddy. At the age of 17, with his daddy's signature, Howard joined the CCs. He was in the army during World War II. After the war, he played first base for the Wausau Red Socks. Howard worked for West Florida Gas Company and served as a police officer for the city of Port St. Joe for 30 years. He is now retired. Howard also played first base for Port St. Joe, but always came back to Wausau to play first base on the weekends. "He is a mentor to me in many ways," said Town Clerk Margaret Riley. *Rufus Barron was born Aug. 24, 1940, in Marianna and has been a life-long resident of the Campbell- ton area. He attended school at Campbellton where he graduated in 1958. Rufus played basketball for the late Sam Mitchell, who began his coaching career at Campbellton. He raced stock cars until an accident, he thought might leave him paralyzed, caused him to pursue a safer hobby. He then took up flying. Approximately one year after receiving his pilot's license, he was involved in a near fatal crash. Barron has now really changed to a safer hobby - he rides Harley Davidson motorcycles. Rufus worked 42 years with the Florida Depart- ment of Transportation. He worked on Interstate 10 from the beginning at the Alabama line to the end of District 3 at the Aucilla River, a distance of 234 miles. Barron served 36 years as an auxiliary deputy in Washington and Jackson counties. He was selected as a member of the Wausau Hall of Fame because of his countless hours of traf fic control and auxiliary work at the Wausau Fun Day events and parade. along with the Wausau an- nual Christmas parade. His hobbies include fish- ing, motorcycle riding and. in the near future, R/Ving. Rufus was sponsored by Roy Lee Carter.

She also criticized the Board for combining the ESE and food services coordinators into one position, and said that it was possible that if a full-time food services coordinator was avail- able that savings could be found, possibly through buying programs with other systems or through PAEC (Brock said that So-e" possible advantage pf, "-:ii~g ~a'ational firm i l~ Chartwells was its abil-' ity to buy in large quantity and save costs). Owens said that the transportation department is always in the red, and noted that the Board is paying another $37,759 to a contract cleaning service that the Board has strongly criticized for its quality. Clark responded that the firm has improved its qual- ity since the Board took ac- tion to withhold payment after numerous complaints, and that the payment was due to increases in the minimum wage. Owens said that if the Checkpoints Washington County Sheriff's office will be conducting driver's license and vehicle inspection checkpoints from May 5 through May 22, on vari- ous local and county and state roads in Washington County. Recognizing the dan- ger of defective vehicle equipment, deputies will concentrate their efforts on vehicles being operated with defects such as bad brakes, worn tires and de- fective lighting equipment. Attention will also be di- rected toward drivers whoi are in violation of Florida driver's license laws. Washington County Sheriff's office has found these checkpoints to be an effective means of en- forcing the equipment and driver's license laws of Florida while ensuring the safety of motorists.

"If elected, I will strive to work together with our teachers, administration, support staff, and parents of every school in our county to make sure our children do not just gradu- ate, but that we have done everything possible to help them be successful in their higher education, careers, and in the game of life." Board finds problems in food service that it should provide "top notch profes- sional development" and mentoring by experienced food service personnel rather than privatize ser- vices. "I think the Washington County school system is looking for trouble," Ow- ens said. "You're looking for trouble when the bot- tom line is profit." Owens and Vernon Middle School Lunchroom Manager Mary Davis also expressed concern that cer- tain itents like 'tench fries" and desserts would only be available "ala carte" and would cost too much for some students. Charlotte, N.C. based Chartwells serves both public and private institu- tions in K-12 and colleges and universities.

With the $95,000 used to purchase property subtracted, this leaves $478,250 to build a new facility. Architect & 10, Inc., of Panama City, part of the Filler & Hammond firm from Miami, submitted estimates of $593,850 for a new City Hall. Estimates include a $92,000 archi- tect's fee. Boswell said this fee appears to be high. "It's what's killing us," he said. No contract has been signed yet with the firm, which was chosen from two that showed interest in the Vernon project. Boswell said that locally obtained estimates of the same building are about $495,000, while estimates for a 34x80 building are for about $428,000. Coun- cil agreed to contact other architects about the proj- ect. New high school moving along Representatives of Perry McCall Construction said that a completion inspec- tion was recently done of Buildings 100 500 at the new Vernon High School, and a "punch list" of things to be done should be competed in the next month. This was reported at the regular meeting of Washington County School Board Monday night. The completion inspec- tion of buildings 600 800 is scheduled for June 1. Wood floors are in place and lockers should be de- livered this month. Paving is complete around several buildings and sod work is underway. Most of the fur- niture should be delivered by May 30 and the library and administrative office furniture should be onsite by June 15. Construction is running on schedule and the high school should be ready for school by August. The funding report included a $79,041 tax saving over the $121,000 anticipated. There is a $14,104 contractor contain. agency fund and a $40,688 balance in the account. There has been $4,067 in owner savings to date. There has been a saving of $23,893 in excess sales taxes. 'EMS: Serving on Health Care's Front Line The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) has announced that the 33rd annual EMS week will be observed May 14 to May 20. The theme for this year's observance will be, "EMS: Serving on Health Care's Front Line." Additionally the Boards of County Commission in both Holmes and Washing- ton County have adopted proclamations supporting the ACEP in recognizing EMS week. Emergency Medi- cal Service of today has changed greatly from the early days. As little as a few decades ago, EMS was simply a vehicle and a driver that arrived at your house, put a patient in the vehicle, and drove that pa- tient to the hospital. Today, we have highly trained individuals that are able to handle most emer- gencies in the patient com- partment of the ambulance. These individuals endure many hours of training, sleepless nights, and time given up with their fami- lies to make a difference in someone's chance for life. Take a minute during this week to show your community support by saying "thank you" to a member of your EMS ser- vice. Below is a list of your local EMS members: Holmes County Para- medics: Wilburn Baker, Director, Greg Barton,- Steve Connell, Tami Staf- ford, Tara Lovell, Joey Tharp, Wayne Carnley, Raina Tate, Ross Pritchard, Steve Yates, Randy Truette, Bobby Martin, Dan Sand- ers.

Lee Mullis, M.D. Board Certified Eye Physician And Surgeon If you think child abuse doesn't affect you, you couldn't be more wrong. It may not be in your home, or on your block, but child abuse is a problem that affects all of us. When a child suffers, we all suffer. For the fiscal year 2004-2005, there were a total of 716 reports turned in to the abuse hotline for Holmes/Washington Counties. Nearly 50 per- cent of those 716 reports investigated had findings of abuse or neglect. A to- tal of 923 children were alleged victims in these reports. In the state of Florida, 225,374 children were alleged victims of child abuse- or neglect. (Statis- tics from the Department of Children and Families website). Fortunately, we have the Guardian ad Litem Program and great volun- teers who have stepped up to help our community's abused children. HOLMES Continued from page 1B used to help relocate the portable library from the "old-Poplar Springs School, which is now being reno- vated as an annex to house the library's children'.s programs. As fate would have it, the annex is named for one of Carswell's fellow na- tives of Esto, A. J. Dixon, whose family's donation is funding the renovation of the building. "When people started inquiring about Mr. Dixon, the first thing I did was go to Holmesteading," said as- sistant library director Betty Treadwell. She found the answer on page 109 of Carswell's book, where he wrote: "It was from the Esto post office in 1906 that Holmes County's first RFD (rural free delivery) mail route was established.

SA Guardian ad Litem's duties include looking into the circumstances of the case by getting to know the child and interviewing people involved, _consult with medical, social, and law enforcement workers involved in the case, pro- tect the child from any in- sensitive treatment during the court process, make reports to the court con- taining recommendations for placement and other information, and become someone the child can de- pend on and learn to trust.

"People love to see the names of their ancestors in print." That his book is being used to support the library would no doubt please Car- swell. He notes in his foreword that when the county was created in 1848 in a po- litical deal made soon after Florida became a state it contained fewer than 250 families. "Most of them were frontier farmers," Carswell wrote. "About one-third were illiterate.

Please consider becoming a Guardian ad Litem volunteer and bring hope back into a child's life. Guardian ad Litem's are ordinary people doing extraordinary things. The question asked the most about the Guardian ad Litem Program is "How much time will it take?" It all depends on how much time a volunteer is able and willing to give. You can help a child that has been a victim of child abuse by becoming a Guardian ad Litem. Training begins on May 22 and will be held at the local office in Chipley.

Tigers fall in second round, 10-0 JEREMY RAINES Sports Editor Chipley High School baseball team suffered a tough loss in the second round of the playoffs after winning a tough battle in the opening round. The Tigers hosted Wal- ton County on Tuesday night and used the stellar pitching of Hunter Park and timely hitting of Josh Roberts to best the Braves, 5-1. Park took the mound for the Tigers sporting a per- fect 9-0 record and made quick work to improve to 10-0. Park went seven innings, allowing seven hits, one run and struck out five. Park scattered the seven Braves hits around the in- nings and didn't hurt him self with walks. "He has been clutch for us all season long and we really played well in the game," said CHS coach Andy Compton about Park. Leading hitters in the game were Scotty Rudd going 1-for-3 with two runs scored, Roberts going 1-for-3 with two RBIs and Park going 2-for-3. The win advanced Chipley to the regional semi-finals and a home game against Jacksonville Episcopal High. Episcopal entered the game with a 15-13 record, but was a battle tested team playing several larger schools during the course of the season. Chipley sent Shawn Harrison to the mound and Episcopal took advantage of some early mistakes as they plated three runs in the first inning. Harrison settled down and only allowed one run until the fifth inning. In the fifth, Harrison be- gan to struggle with control and Episcopal once again took advantage, scoring five runs in the inning. Lance Bush came on in relief and also witnessed the powerful line up, al- lowing two runs. Chipley was held score- less as they fell, 10-0 and was eliminated from the playoffs. Chipley finishes the sea- son as district champions and a record of 19-9. Chipley relied on several underclassman during the season to win the district base- ball title. With all the players, again next season. as the season unfolded. I Chipley has coming back "We had a good run and am looking forward to next they should be a threat found some quality players season," said Compton. 6 Chipley used strong pitching to advance to the second round of the playoffs.

You've heard that before ... perhaps even said it yourself. It's easy to ignore the minor ache or pain, just as it's easy for your chiropractor to treat the minor ache or pain. However, let the pain persist and worsen, and the healing process becomes more difficult. That increasing pain, is a signal that the condition is gradually degenerating into a severe ailment. If you are experiencing any discomfort now, get a chiropractic examination before the pain (and the expense) become more severe.

Yates' faithful dog, Rover, seems to be wishing to go, especially since he sees his master with a shotgun. SING Continued from page 1B at the church in 1906 and continues today. Yates reared tree fami- lies during his long tenure of life. Two daughters, Lorene Yates Dean and tIanha Nell Yates Wil- li1lms, "5are ardent gospel music singers and are still faithful to attend and sup- port the New Effort sing. Brothers Lloyd Yates and Danny Yates, children of Dan Yates, followed their dad's interest in singing for many years. Descendants from T.O. Phillips, who continue to attend and support the an- nual sing, include Carolyn Phillips Cooley, Margaret Phillips Watford and Leesa Manning Lee, married to Sheriff Dennis Lee of Hol- mes County. You can bet on see- ing John Brownell, Daisy Manning Helms and the former Nell Leavins all at- tending and supporting this year's sing. Some of the "prime movers" of the earlier sing- ing events, in addition to Dan Yates and wife, Min- nie Mae Yates, are Andrew Dinkins and wife, Corine, Tobe Retherford and wife, Flossie, as well as their children, Vermol, Johnnie, Joy Nell, Doyle and W.T.

Ocie Boswell, Dixie Carroll and Rosa Lee Mar- tin are well-remembered piano players of the past. Al Boswell, son of Barry and Ocie Boswell, recalls a cousin of his dad, Wilsie Boswell, coming to the sing by train, debarking at Longpine siding and bringing his fiddle which he played on some of the songs at the all-day singing. Al recalls local residents bringing "slabs" from a nearby sawmill to make a walkway across a swampy area near the railroad sid- ing for the passengers to walk across.

In the annual sing's heyday, singers such as Harold White and wife, Mariel Lucas White, Olen White, O.D. Goodson, Mary Ann Goodson Lee, Louise Wells, and Jeanette Wells from the Esto area, attended the event and par- ticipated in singing as well as piano playing. My wife, Hester, was usually in this party although she will not admit to being in their league of good singers. The Mother's Day all- day singing session at New Effort Church this year will be a landmark event as it is the centennial year of its founding 1906-2006. A new building has been added along the way at New Effort, complete with electricity, thus allowing for heating and cooling. In the old days, the heat inside the building was atrocious, with cooling provided only by the breeze from open windows and the air that could be generated by hand-held cardboard fans usually furnished to all churches courtesy of fu- neral homes in the area. It was a common oc- currence for singers to be overcome by heat exhaus- tion and someone would have to administer spirits of ammonia or camphor in order to restore breathing. In the earlier days, many people traveled to the sing by mule or horse-drawn buggies and wagons, horseback, or by walk- ing. The late Joel Potter of Chipley told me one time that his decision as to whether or not to attend a singing event was if he could walk there and back within a day and still get to hear the singing. With all the modern day conveniences of travel, most of us are without excuse in attending this singing event and other related historical or heri- tage type happenings. It is my plan to attend at least the afternoon session of the memorable 100-year- old New Effort sing on Mother's Day, May 14 and, hopefully, I may just see you there. See you-all next week.
