BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Times Editor The city of Lake Butler employees put in a lot of time and paperwork to apply for a grant to expand a local day care center, but they were still a little surprised with the amount they received. In a recent ceremony held at city hall, Lake Butler officials and a representative of Little Rainbow Learning Center Inc. accepted a check in the amount of $106,500. Only $600,000 is available for all of Florida, so City Manager Richard Tillis said Lake Butler felt extremely fortunate to get that large a portion of the funding. The business enterprise grant is being funded through the United States Department of Agriculture's Rural, Development. State Director Chuck Clemons, along with his staff members (Rod Quainton,. Rebecca Manning and Stephanie Hodges), presented the check to Lake Butler Mayor Jimmy Beasley, Vice Mayor Brantley Crawford, commissioners Ray Crawford, Fletcher Myers and LeRoy Stalvey. Adele Griffin, a staff assistant from Sen. Mel Martinez's office, Joyce Klein, the assistant director of the day care center, and additional city employees were on hand to accept the grant at the ceremonial check presentation. The center's director, Kim Bailey, could not be present due to medical reasons. The grant will expand Little Rainbow Learning Center, which the city leases to -Bailey. The day care is currently housed in an existing 30,400 square-foot pre-engineered metal building. Renovations will include the construction of five classrooms, each with its own bathroom. A small kitchen will be added with a dining area. All will have central heat and air. Six new jobs will also be created bringing the total of this small business to 10 See GRANT, p. 2A Officials look into student safety , BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Times Editor A picturesque mountain school. A one-room Amish school house. Violence. can happen anywhere, and school violence hag been more prominent across the country recently. This is not something local school, law enforcement and emergency officials take lightly. On Oct. 4, Union. County Sheriff Jerry' Whitehead, Superintendent Carlton Faulk, Emergency Operations Center Director Doug York and other school administrators met to discuss the security of the county's students. In a letter to parents dated Oct. 6, Whitehead said the purpose of the meeting was to "examine what is in place and * to determine if there is anything else we can do to continue making our children and our campuses safe from any possible threats." As a father with children in the school system, Whitehead said it is his job to make sure his and every child is safe at school. At the Oct. 10 meeting of the Union County School Board, Chairman Allen Parrish addressed the issue.' "We're inherently responsible for being proactive," he said. Faulk said some of the security measures that came up in the meeting with law enforcement was the possibility of putting up a fence around the open areas at Lake Butler Middle School and Union Counit '"High School and additional cameras. Faulk said the fences would keep. people from wandering up into the open areas of the school. As has always been the policy, all visitors to the' schools must check in at the front office. The school board has approximately -$200,000. available in school safety money, of which a portion could be used toward these *projects. Emergency Management Director Doug York spoke about additional measures Monday's county commission meeting. York recognized the many, students in the audience who were in attendance for their American government class, and said it was .all about student safety. ''We're very aware emergencies could happen at any point," he said. School administrators now have the ability to directly connect to the emergency operations center. Although expensive, York said the school district contributed money to get the capability, which is believed to: .be. the" first of its 'kind in northeast Florida. "The staff at all' three schools have -been very helpful," he said. Another plan the district may implement is to have a direct video link from school cameras to the emergency operations center. All parties who met Oct. 4, said they will continue to look at security measures to, ensure: ,student safety. As a reminder, if students know or hear of anyone threatening violence at school, they can call the hotline, (877) iPBRAVE. The safety hotline anonymous, and calls are not recorded. Tips, from landlines go directly into Union County's Emergency Operations Center. Be cautious when burning BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Times Editor caution when burning items. With little rain at this point in the year, Union County residents should use extra Emergency Management Director Doug York said he is not going to. enact ,a burn ban yet, hoping that all the county's residents will be responsible With the dry conditions. York said that currently, Union is in a' "very high category for drought" on the Keetch-Byram drought index. On a scale of 0-8.00 (0 being no 'moisture deficit). Union County currently ranks at a 600, which means it is at a higher risk for wildfires. York recommends residents '.be .cautious when burning items, following burning guidelines, obtain' burning permits for larger prescribed bans, dig fire lines and have a backup plan, in case a fire breaks out. "A small fire can become a wildfire very quickly," he said. York said the conditions will 'only change if there is a "significant" amount of rain, so be careful when burning if you decided to burn at all.

Bronson launches new forestry initiative Florida Agriculture and Consumer Services Commissioner Charles H. Bronson recently announced a new public awareness initiative, "Your Forest. Managed." This initiative teams landowners across the state with their county forester to ensure the future health of Florida's forests. This -is the most comprehensive outreach in the Division of Forestry's 79-year .history and will ..-..significantly -influence the shaping of-Florida's privately owned forests for decades to come. With Florida's population expected to exceed 18 million by 2020, preparing privately owned forest lands to 'accommodate an upcoming record growth rate is at the core of the initiative. Currently the state loses 1,200 acres of forest land per week with development expected to grow by 40 percent during this time. In addition, large, acreages of land, formerly owned by one individual, are being broken up into smaller parcels and sold to multiple owners. This changing of hands is introducing new forest land owners who 'may not have the information necessary to properly manage their property. The increase in number and variety of landowners has required foresters to develop innovative ways to communicate with a changing and diverse group of people. "Your Forest. Managed." is designed to help Florida's county foresters connect with the landowners in the districts they serve. The centerpiece of the campaign has been named, "OAK," which stands for Outreach Action Kit. OAK consists of a comprehensive landowners' manual, brochures, promotional items, displays and an interactive Web site, all of which are available in English and Spanish. These tools are expected to help, forest landowners make sound decisions when it comes to their property. "' "At the heart of this initiative is' a desire to assist Florida's forest land owners by providing sound counsel on how they- can best manage S.their land to meet their individual needs," Bronson said. "New landowners need to know that the. beautiful land they just bought won't stay that way on its own. We can help." Forests cover almost half of ,Florida's total land area more than 16 million acres and are an important economic engine in this state. .Private landowners own' more than half of that total land and produce over half of Florida's raw timber supply. As the state's top agribusiness, the .forest industry has a total economic impact of $16.5 billion. Impacts on tourism and recreation generate about $6 billion and exports outside the sate represent 50 percent of total industry sales. The Division of Forestry has 45 county foresters in .15 .districts.' Their job is to help private nonindustrial landowners with 10 acres or more develop land Little Rainbow Learning Center is the only state- approve.d private provider of the voluntary pre-K program in management plans and execute proper. management practices. Florida's forests provide the environment with clean air and help reduce air pollution and provide habitat for wildlife and a diverse plant population. In addition, forestlands are critical to purifying our state's water supply, providing a water filtering system that affects the drinking water of 90 percent of Florida's. population. Proper forest land management is critical to maintaining this lifeline to the state. The Division of Forestry is committed to protecting the county. The center provides "structured learning and play activities for toddlers and pre-schoolers," according Florida and its people from the dangers of wildland fire and manage the forest resources through a stewardship ethic to assure they are available for future generations. Learn more about this important initiative at www.yourforestmanaged.com. If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age. -George Burns to a USDA press release. "It is a good day in Lake Butler today, and the town has reason to celebrate," said Chuck Clemons. "The education and well being of our children is a priority so that every child can read, learn and succeecfin life." "This investment will pay handsome dividends not only to your children but to your families and community, as well. Rural Development is proud to be a part of making possible the expansion of the Little Rainbow Learning Center and for bringing about the opportunity for new jobs to local people." Rural Business Enterprise Grants support community economic development by making grants to local economic development programs that support nonfarm businesses in rural areas with a population below 50,000.

Ray Virginia Daugherty Kathi Bennett BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND Times Editor In order to raise graduation rates and help students find employment after high school, Union County High School is using a grant to form academies within the school. The four academies are construction, business, health and the teacher cadet. The teachers cadet academy is in its beginning stages this year with the help of an approximately $177,000 grant. Bobbie Morgan, director of staff development at the school district office, worked on the grant and said she has been working with the high school to train teachers already in the school system. Teachers would gain additional certification to what they have now in order to teach certified programs next year. Morgan said at the Oct. 10 school board meeting that this first year is to determine curriculum, create advisory boards and to determine the direction of the academies. "I feel like this is an answered prayer," Morgan said of the fact that the academies will give students certifications that will allow them to leave high school and be employed at a higher starting salary. The programs aim to give students the opportunity to see UCHS instructor Mike Ripplinger also spoke to Rotary Oct. 10 at the Butler Seafood House and Grille about preparing students to enter the workforce. Correction In the Oct. 12 issue on page 2C, Jill Teston was mistakenly identified as Jill Tetstone.in an article about a breast cancer awareness event.

Parade entry forms are now available at the high school. The entry fee is $10, which is que by Monday, Oct. 30, at 3 p.m. On Nov. 3, parade line-up will begin at 11 a.m. at Sprinkle Field.

Students could leave the academy with certification that would prepare them to directly enter a job. a connection between high school and their careers. UCHS teachers Lor i Howard, Tammy Sulsona, Stacy Worrell and Mike Ripplinger spoke to the Rotary Club of Lake Butler on Oct. 10 (at Butler Seafood House & Grille), about the academies. Many other school personnel, such as Ramona Johns, Superintendent Carlton Faulk and Morgan were in attendance. Mayor Jerry Pinkham, who will teach the construction academy, could not attend the presentation. , Sulsona said, "We're driven by our three Rs: rigor, relevance and relationships." The academies will be more, rigorous, she said, going more. into depth about a specific area of study. Topics taught will 'have\a "real-world relevance" to students. According to Worrell, a UCHS business instructor and yearbook adviser, teachers will be able to build better .relationships with students, which could help them with giving career advice. An advantage of the academies will be to take subjects students are already interested in, such as becoming a nurse, and giving them actual guidance and instruction to get them to that point. Health occupations instructor Howard said, "The hardest thing is to get them motivated to learn the things we need to know." The academies will show health students, for instance, how a math problem actually relates to what they will be See UCHS, p. 4A ...t, ..:..?-- Clearance Sale!'

BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer James Young and his wife, Kim, seemed not to notice the hustle and bustle going on around them as they held -hands and looked into each '-other's eyes-they could've -.been in a secluded spot rather -than in the middle of the crowded mess hall at the 202"d -RED HORSE (rapid engineer deployable heavy operational .*repair squadron engineers) base at the Camp Blanding Joint Training Center. Yet they were no different than anybody else present at the RED HORSE base on the morning of Oct. 16. More than 100 RED HORSE members and their families were trying to make the most of what little time they had left together before the squadron departed for Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. The unit will eventually deploy to the Middle East. Young, who lives in Starke, admitted he had a mixture of feelings before'leaving home. "I'm looking forward to go do what we're called to do," he said. "It's one of those things where you feel anxious about it, but at the same time, you're ready to go. It's something you've been trained to do and. you're ready to go do it. i f~J Allen Mathis of Marianna spends some time with his 6- year-old son, Ryan. James Young (left) and his wife, Kim, share a moment in the 202nd RED HORSE mess hall. - Far, "I'm glad to be able to serve my country this way." The RED HORSE members will undergo additional combat skills training by Army personnel for one month at Fort McCoy before departing for the Afghanistan and Iraq. At Fort McCoy, members' training will -include instruction on the use of weapons, navigation techniques, convoy movement tactics and use of a global positioning system. Col. Jack Paschal, the 202nd RED HORSE commander, said unit members will go to various locat-ion._ i.n' Afghanistan and Iraq and be involved in various projects, such as repairing runways, paving roads and constructing temporary buildings. "We do almost everything but (build) bridges," Paschal said. The Air National Guard unit will actually be supporting an Army mission overseas. Paschal said the Army doesn't have enough engineering forces to accomplish its mission, so it has called upon- the Air Force to assist. The RED HORSE members will focus on construction work, while the. Army will perform combat-engineer work. "Hopefully, it will be a good fit and a good mix, with some of our folks, having prior Army experience," Paschal said. Going overseas is nothing new for Blanding's RED HORSE squadron. Members have worked- in such-places as Oman and Qatar, as recently as .2003. That doesn't make leaving again any easier . See DEPLOY, p. 11B ".. "" "'- -AZ- .....

Conneely is the former executive director of the ARC (Association of Retarded Citizens) of Bradford County-his last day on the job was Sept. 28. He worked at three other ARCs in North Central Florida, but he puts the time spent in Bradford (13 years) at the top of the list. "The community was incredibly supportive," he said. "I've made a lot of good friends here and still have good friends here. The people who live in Bradford County have been very accepting of the people we serve,. and see- them as valued people in our community." Conneely, who lives in Keystone Heights, said he looks forward to retirement, viewing it as a new phase in his life. Much the same can be said of his early experiences working with ARC. He began working at the ARC of Alachua Counts 30 ',ears ago. which was like entering a rne' phase because the opportunities for people v. ith developmental disabilities v.as expanding He described ithat early experience as extremely humble beginnings." "People \.ere leaving the institutions and mo ing into communities." Conneel', said "The state \%a; just starting Lip community programs, so we really, I guess you'd say. had the opportunity to develop these programs. That was a lot of fun. "The progress the state has made over the years in providing services to people with developmental disabilities has been extraordinary, and the level of care has been very good." That sums up %th\ Conneelk began working %\ith ARC. When he was going to college. The ARC of Bradford County said goodbye to retiring director John Conneely at a recent reception. Pictured above (from left) are: Nancy Bailey (Conneely's sister), Conneely, Carroll Conneely (John's sister-in-law) and Bob Conneely (John's brother). he wanted to major in something that would allow him to have an impact on people's lives. He went to Santa Fe Community College for two- years, then was "fortunate" to be offered a scholarship to Florida State and major in a "brand new field." That field was habilitative services.

"There just were not a lot of folks who had that level of training. I felt it was a good fit (for me)." . Conneely, after graduating from FSU, took a,job as the first certified special education teacher in Brevard County. He taught for two years, then had the chance to go to graduate school at Western Kentucky University. Conneely received an opportunity to work in a community sheltered workshop while attending Western Kentucky. He enjoyed teaching, but found that working in community-based programs was a better fit for him. "I enjoyed that more because I was able to play more of an administrative role as well as a service-related role," Conneely said. "I liked that combination." Since his roots are in Florida, he returned to Gainesville, where he began working for the ARC of Alachua County. That was in 1976, and he worked five years there. Conneely also worked for the ARCs in Duval and Escambia counties before taking the job in Bradford County 13 years ago. He was familiar with Bradford County. While growing up, Conneely and his -family spent a lot of time in Keystone, which, in turn, led them to spending time in Bradford County, where they See RETIRE, p. 7B Florida Twin Theatre (All Seats $5.00 Before 6 p.m. 964-5451 *CLOSED MON & TUESI!

SIf oug~th-ii-with-a-$24500- charge on your .account linked to an 800 number, you will be upset, especially when your carrier says it is a legitimate charge and cannot be reversed or cancelled, and you will become wary of what seem to be toll-free numbers. I recently received an e-mail passed through several dozen individuals, so one might say it came from a friend of a friend several times removed. The content reveals a scam that any one of us could be caught up in, so listen up and be warned as you read the story. Mark 0., district manager of a plastics firm, writes that his recorder picked up a message from area code 809, in which a woman said, "Hey, this is Karen. Sorry I missed you. Get back to us quickly. I have something important to tell you." She then repeated a telephone number beginning with the number 809. Luckily, Mark did not respond to the call. The original phone call was a scam in which the caller only wanted to get a return call and would keep the victim on the line as long as possible- while charging as much as $2,500 a minute. Telephone numbers 809, 284, and 876 are actual area codes in the Caribbean and, like other area code numbers, not toll-free. On its Web site, AT&T addresses the scam, saying it began about five years ago and continues very much as described by Mark 0.' While the codes are legal, they are also outside the continental United States and not subject to American oversight. , If you respond to such a call,, unfortunately, you are on your own.; By Buster Rahn,n, Telegraph Editorialist LETTERS TO THE EDITOR .

The club bought approximately 30Q dictionaries, which were given to all third-grade students, whether they attend one of Bradford County's public schools or the county's charter school (the Believers School of y' Learning), or are home- s:: schooled. u Every third-grade teacher received a dictionary also. It or d is r e. n n Cheryl Canova, club president, said she and Bear Bryan, the club's president- elect,, attended leadership training when they first heard of 'the dictionary project-a project put forth by the Florida Kiwanis governor. "We were the first (club) to do it," Canova said. Canova said students at the third-erade level %e4re chosen to receive the dictionaries because third grade is when students first take the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test. The dictionaries were handed out by club members Oct. 3-5. Each one had a label-donated by Sporting Chance-on the inside cover bearing the student's name it belonged to. The students get to keep the dictionaries after they move on from third grade, but next year's third-graders won't be lacking.

Conneely also took job- related trips to Bradford while working in Gainesville. "I knew the type of town (Starke) was," he said. "I felt really good about coming here." At that time, the ARC of Bradford County was much smaller and didn't serve as many people as it does today. Conneely said a lot of new programs have been developed since he started working there. "We've also been able to gear our services more toward community-based activities. That has been good," he said. "Also, our consumers now have a lot more choices in what they get for services in comparison to what it was like 13 years ago when they had very limited choices." Conneely said the two things he's most proud of during his time at the ARC of Bradford County are the expansion of the facilities to accommodate current and future growth, and the opening of two residential facilities. Overall, however, he simply loved working there. Every day brought a different success story concerning one of the, consumers, plus he worked with a supportive board of directors and a great staff. "They are as good as any staff I've ever had the privilege of working with," Conneely said. That made walking away from the job a difficult decision to make, but Conneely said he feels it was the right decision. He feels like he's still in the prime of his life, and is looking forward to remaining active and spending time with family. Don't count on Conneely dropping out of community service entirely, however. "I'm sure at some point in the not-too-distant future, I'll probably resurface somewhere doing something, possibly in the same field, or maybe something totally different," he said. "I'm going to take a month or so, maybe wait 'til after the holidays, then come back and see where I am at that time.

Completing a three-year apprenticeship--during which the student would work and earn money while receiving additional training-would lead to employment at an average of $20 to $22 per hour. The class is open to both 'high school students and adults, but the high school students participate for free, 'while the adult students must pay $2,887.50 in total tuition 'and a lab fee lof $25 per semester. Instructor Mike Beville said 'the course is run in sections, so not all that money would be 'due at one time. The complete course is 1,650 hours at $1.75 per hour for the total tuition, but students can' pay for one semester at a time. Students must be at least 16 years old and be able to pass the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) at a ninth- .grade level.

Five Points of Life'cyclists visit Bradford High School BY TERESA STONE-IRWIN Telegraph Staff Writer In 1996, LifeSouth board member Perry McGriff of Gainesville brought up the idea of a national blood donor awareness campaign. His idea consisted of a team of LifeSouth donors and recipients cycling cross country holding blood drives and sharing personal stories at various stops along the way. Thus began LifeSouth Community Blood Centers Five Points of Life program. The Five Points of Life program represents the five ways you can share life with others through donating blood, plasma, marrow, cord blood and registering as an organ donor.. The sixth ride of its kind, the cyclists began their journey:in Ottawa on Sept. 8 and will end some 4,000 miles later in South Beach Miami on Oct. 21. Each cyclist chosen for the team is selected for their personal connection to one or more of the fi e points. - As the \ were riding through- Starke on Oct. 12,. the ten cyclists made a stop at Bradford High School to. speak to the class of 2007' School Principal, Randy Whytsell, who himself received a kidney. transplant just last year, was unable to attend. . As they gave away T-shirts and wristbands, the cyclists each told their personal and heartfelt stories to the audience in effort to increase donor awareness among young people.

Beville said he knows one mason who previously completed the apprenticeship program and now earns $75,000 to $100,000 a year. "He only works 10 months a year and still earns that. He hunts and fishes for the other two months," said Beville. The brother of one of the current masonry students completed the program last year.and is now earning $12- $14 per hour while still working in the apprenticeship program. "If students want to learn and are willing to put in the sweat equity involved, they can complete this course and have the opportunity to earn an excellent salary," said Beville. The course is set up so students can earn three different certifications. The first is masonry tender, a certification that would mean a student could work as a mason's helper. The second is core masonry and the final certification is brick masonry. The course teaches the use and maintenance of the tools and equipment involved in masonry, safety procedures, the proper use of materials, technical skills like reading blueprints and calculating. proper layouts, and a variety of general job skills. Beville said if a student completes the certifications in the program, a job and apprenticeship can almost be guaranteed. The career center program is' coordinated with the Florida, Masonry Apprenticeship and Educational Foundation, so students who complete the Bradford program are eligible for an apprenticeship. Al Herndon, regional apprenticeship representative for FMAEF, said the organization is impressed w ,n the career .center program. "We're very pleased with the way it's working," he said.

Bradford drove 95 yards and scored to pull within six points of Keystone Heights. The host Indians faced the prospect of having to give the ball back to the Tornadoes if their offense could not convert on a third- and-8 play. The Tornadoes did get the ball back, but not before they 'found themselves facing a 14- point deficit after Keystone running back Matt Story took a screen pass and turned it into a 60-yard touchdown to help lead the Indians to a 35-21 win in District 3-2A on Oct. 13. "They called the right play at the right time," Bradford head coach Chad Bankston said. "We blitzed and they caught us in it. They made us pay for it." It was the second of three fourth-quarter touchdowns scored by Story. "I was just hoping to get a first down and it turned into something big," the junior running back said. Story increased his team's lead to 21 points, scoring from Bradford's 2-yard line after an interception by Josh Mangis. Bradford added a touchdown on a 3-yard run by Rob Harris with 25 seconds remaining. "All in all, the kids played well," Keystone head coach Chuck Dickinson said. "It was a good victory for them." Keystone improved to 6-1, a record the program has not seen since the 1992 season (that team finished 9-2). More importantly, the win improved the Indians' district record to 2-1 and keeps them in second place-tied with West Nassau-behind leader Bolles. "It puts us in a good position, but it doesn't mean anything," Dickinson said. "We've got to win the next two games." Bradford (4-3) fell to 1-2 in the district, but the Tornadoes are not necessarily out of the playoff chase. The roles were reversed last year when Bradford defeated Keystone, but the Indians finished as district runners-up. The Tornadoes simply have to win their remaining district games this year and hope Keystone slips up. "That's how you've got to approach it," Bankston said. "We've just got to go out and beat Ribault and West Nassau." Story finished strong for the Indians, but it was backfield mate Greg Taylor who put the Indians on the board first. Keystone's first possession, after a short Bradford punt, began at the Bradford 41. The Indians, aided by the Tornadoes jumping offsides three times, found the end zone in five plays, with Taylor (71 yards rushing on 15 attempts) doing the honors from 6 yards out. Keystone's offense was kept in check for the remainder of the half, with the exception of a 34-yard drive to the Bradford 24 late in the second quarter. However, the drive ended when kicker Michael McLeod missed a 41-yard field goal.' Bradford's offense, after gaining just 33 yards for most of the first half, put together a late second-quarter drive as well. Jernard Beard had a reception of 10 yards and gained 12 yards on a reverse to help the Tornadoes move to the Keystone 41. Quarterback Antwan Brown completed a 20-yard pass to Jawan Jamison that set the Tornadoes up at the 10-yard line. Bradford was forced to attempt a 27-yard field goal, however, which Glenn Velasquez missed with 50 seconds left in the half. Bradford's defense, which yielded just 70 yards in the first half, forced a fumble at the start of the second half. Harris recovered and returned the ball deep into Keystone territory, only to have a penalty push the Tornadoes back to their own 27. They eventually punted back to Keystone after driving to the 50-yard line. The Indians' offense seemed to be going nowhere, facing a third-and-10, but a pass from Blake Lott to Taylor ended up as a completion when Bradford linebacker Marcus Wilson tipped the ball right into Taylor's hands. The play resulted in a 69-yard touchdown at the 4:51 mark of the third quarter. McLeod's PAT put the Indians up 14-0. Bradford came right back. Brown completed three passes for 25 yards before Harris broke loose for a 41-yard run before Lott made a touchdown-saving tackle at the Keystone 8. Jamison, who led all rushers with 95 yards on 15 carries,, scored on the next play, and the PAT by Velasquez pulled the Tornadoes within seven with 2:27 left in the third quarter. As Bankston observed, every time his team gained some momentum, Keystone took it right back. The Indians responded to Jamison's score by driving 69 yards for their third touchdown. Story and Taylor each had two runs that netted 20 yards before Story scored on a 3-yard plunge at the 11:52 mark of the fourth quarter, putting Keystone up - - Golf Carts rOcK/ Remanufactured Many Models to choose from!

Keystone plays at Interlachen Friday BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer It would appear that remaining in second place in District 3-Class 2A would not be a problem for the Keystone Heights football team this week. After all, the Indians are playing an Interlachen Rams team that has won just two games and has been outscored 209-46-in its five losses.

Take last year, for example. Interlachen won only four games, but the Rams held Keytsone's offense to just two field goals in a 6-0 loss. Still, the Rams played a lot of people close that season, but have failed to do so this year when they haven't been on the winning end. Interlachen's closest loss was 20-8 against Hawthorne in the season opener. Since then, the Rams have lost 48-0 to Bradford (a team the Indians just beat 35- 21), 54-13 to Newberry (a team Keystone beat 14-7), 42- 12 to Ribault and 45-13 to West Nassau (a team Keystone beat 21-14). Interlachen's two wins came against Father Lopez (41-13) and Pierson Taylor (42-6). The Rams got off to a good start in last week's game against West Nassau when Harry Snover returned an interception 44 yards for a touchdown on the third play from scrimmage. However, West Nassau , scored the next 24 points and forced four Interlachen turnovers. Turnovers were a problem for the Rams in last year's game against Keystone.

The PAT was no good, but that didn't seem to matter as the Indians seemed poised to put the game away after Bradford went for, and failed, to convert a fourth-down play from its own 26. Keystone drove to the 9-yard line before coughing up the ball. Bradford's Jamison recovered and the Tornadoes put together a 95-yard scoring drive that was aided by three dead-ball, personal foul penalties on Keystone. Those penalties amounted to 40 yards, while Bradford also had big gains on a 10-yard run by Beard, a 17-yard run by Jamison and a 15-yard reception by Maurice Portis. Harris, who finished the game with 51 yards on eight carries, capped the drive with an 11-yard touchdown run with 6:33 to play. "We got it to 20-14 and I thought we had a pretty good chance at that point," Bankston said. "We just couldn't get them stopped." See SECOND, p. 7C vslk_ TO LL.

Page 6C TELEGRAPH, TIMES & MONITOR--C-SECTION Oct. 19, 2006 KH volleyball earns another loss against ranked team BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer Keystone Heights squared off against yet another ranked opponent, resulting in another loss for the volleyball team to close out the regular season. The Indians hosted fifth- rafitked, Class 2A St. Johns Country Day, which defeated Keystone 3-1 (17-25, 25-21, 25-18, 25-20) in the regular season finale on Oct. 12. It was senior night at KHHS, and the team's seniors did have a good match. Lroi Albritton had 23 assists, eight service points and four blocks, Noel Bartley had 13 service points, five aces and nine digs, Michelle Houser had 23 digs, 10 service points and three service aces, and Mallory Wasik had 18 kills and 12 digs. It was the third straight loss for the Indians, and their fourth in the last five matches. All but one of those four losses came against ranked teams, including two ranked teams in Class 4A: Bishop Kenny and Nease. Keystone played in the semifinals of the District 6- Class 3A tournament this past Tuesday, Oct. 17. If the Indians defeated Interlachen, they will play for` the championship tonight, Oct. 19, at 7 p.m. at Interlachen High School. Improved Tigers fall in first round of districts BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer The Union County volleyball team experienced the most success it has had in some time, but the Tigers couldn't extend their season beyond the quarterfinals of the District 6-Class 3A tournament, losing 3-0 to fourth seed, and host, Interlachen on Oct. 16. Interlachen recorded wins of 25-15, 25-7 and 25-21 to advance to the semifinals, where the Rams played top seed Keystone Heights. Union, the tournament's fifth seed, ended its season with a 9-14 record. However, coach Perry Davis said he believed it was the best season for the Tigers, who had just two seniors on this year's team, since 1996. The Tigers had a strong close to the regular season, winning their two last matches. On Oct. 10, Union traveled to Newberry and defeated the Panthers 3-0 (25-20, 25-19, 25-15). Davis said the team struggled with serving and its play at the net, but he said Kellyl Bennett and Miranda Kent did a great job of serving, with 11 and 10 points, respectively. Bennett had six aces. Bennett and Kent also had five kills each, as did Bianca Clemons and Markie Emery. Hannah Hayes led the team with six kills. Jessica Parrish had eight service points, Chastity Lloyd had 15 digs and Lacey Webb had 10 assists. The Tigers returned home for senior night on Oct. 12 and defeated Lafayette 3-1 (21-25, 25-17, 25-17, 25-13). "Lacey Webb had a great night setting," Davis said. "She was able to use different hitters all night long." Webb had 12 assists, while also contributing five service points. Kent led the team with 15 service points. Emery had nine and Bennett had six. Hayes had a team-high 11 kills, followed by Bennett, who had nine. Lloyd had 32 digs. BHS bows out of volleyball tournament BY CLIFF SMELLEY Telegraph Staff Writer The first three games of the match were close, but the Bradford volleyball team appeared to let a little controversy affect its performance in the fourth game as the Tornadoes lost 3-1 to Baker County in the District 3-4A quarterfinals on Oct. 16 at Santa Fe High School. Bradford (6-16) lost the first game of the match 26-24, the bounced back for a 25-19 win. The teams were tied at 25-all in the third game, but the officials made a late net violation call on Bradford, adjusting the score so that it was really 25-24 in favor of Baker, which went on to win 26-24. Bradford, which also had several lift violations called against it the third game, went on to lose the fourth game 25- 11. "Unfortunately, we were dealing with a little adversity," Bradford coach Josh Crow said. Destiny Bass and Khalaa Hill led the Tornadoes with eight kills each, while Valencia Cave, playing one of her better matches of the season, according to Crow, added seven. Samantha Stocker recorded eight assists and had two service aces. Two junior varsity players-Loretta Carter and Jennifer Smyth-were moved up to gain some varsity experience. Smyth was able to record three kills. It was a tough first year for Crow, but he said his players, hopefully, learned that hard work put into practices and during the offseason will positively affect the way they play matches. Also, the players who are returning will have a year of playing a new system under their belts. "Next season will be a more accurate assessment of what we can do as a program," Crow said. KHHS Continued from p. 4C quarterback Josh McCoy, who has since transferred to Hawthorne'High School, was intercepted once. Defense was the story for the Indians in that win. The Indians held the Rams to 62 total yards. Interlachen did score a touchdown in the game on a 65-yard pass play, but a penalty for an illegal block nullified the score. Keystone's offense, which gained 179 yards, squandered . several scoring opportunities. Second-quarter field goals of 32 and 34 yards by senior Michael McLeod were the only points the Indians managed. McLeod missed two field goals in the second half. The Indians also failed to. score on a fourth-down play inside the Interlachen 1-yard line late in the game.
