Goodson draws a rough sketch (below) and then paints a color ren- dering before creating a large-scale mural. Keith Goodson working on latest addition to Lake Placid's collection By TREY CHRISTY trey.christy@newssun.corn LAKE PLACID - In only three weeks, mural- ist Keith Goodson will turn a blank wall into his latest work of art. His newest project, on the U.S. 27-facing outer wall of the Thrift Shop of St. Francis of Assisi Church at 43 Lake June Road, will make 11 murals he's done in Lake Placid alone. He said he will be out there just about every day into the early part of September, drawing his own version of "Feeding the 5,000."

Jesus will be the focal point of the piece, with-just SFWMD presentation to county raises flood insurance concerns Remapping of flood plain could mean higher rates By ED BALDRIDGE ed.baldridge@newssun.com SEBRING - County Commissioners heard a pres- entation about the status and concerns. surrounding the water and lakes management on the Highlands Ridge Tuesday morning. Mark Hammond, spokesman with the South Florida Water Management District, addressed re-map- ping of the flood plain areas throughout his district that will be due in 2010. Included in Hammond's presentation were concerns that remap- ping could affect insurance rates for those who live a long the ridge, which stretch- es from Polk County down through Highlands County. Hammond said that after the data about the topology was gathered, SFWMD would work with FEMA to adjust the flood plain insur- ance rates. That could mean signifi- cantly higher rates for those with.homes already built in a. flood plain. Sebring resident Preston Colby asked county commis- sioners why they were not controlling the development in the flood plains. "The county has refused to address the flood plain devel- opment issues," Colby said. According to Colby, in 1998 just 1,119 residents were located in the flood plain. In 2006, a Department of Community Affairs study -shows over 11,000 residences in the 100-year flood plain. Based on DCA figures per residence, that means more than 24,000 people could be affected by flooding in the case of a large tropical storm. Colby also asserted that Continued on page 3A a few people surrounding him "All the'people that will be coming are the 5,000," he said.

After .that is approved, he produces a color rendering that "looks like.a cartoon," he said. "It gives them the idea of the coloring; not 100 percent accurate, but they get the idea," he said.

"This year has been full of hurdles, but everything seems to be coming together very nicely," said Marketing Director Lora Todd. "At the beginning of the year there were some questionable moments. We had to take a good hard look at the facts. There was a possibility of postponing the event this year due to the economic downturn. But with the support and encouragement of the community, our sponsors and trimming the budget we decided to move forward. "The cost of producing the three-day event is between $70,000 and $80,000.

Bryan 'is taking the time to remind everyone that after Sept. 1, vehicle registra- tion and driver's licenses will increase dramatically. In a press release, Bryan's office continued to encourage everyone to "take advantage of the savings by completing their transactions" before the rates were increased. According to Bryan, registration fees for cars, trucks, motorcycles will increase as much as 125 per- cent after August, but if taxpayers can register early, up to three months prior to their birthday, and pay the current rate for two years. Those who seek to renew their registration after Sept. 1 will that in some cases, the fees doubled or tripled when Governor Charlie Christ signed Senate Bill 1778 into law on May 4. "The state says it's a fee, but it's nothing more than a tax," Bryan said earlier about the drastic increases. Bryan's goal was to get as many people into his office to renew for one or two years before the increase hits. According to Bryan, "It saves the taxpayers money, and bolsters the office's budget for a tough year. A win- win for everyone." Bryan But what Bryan did not expect was the results of his "Do It Now For Two" campaign. According to Tax Collector Office Manager Carole Mott-Richie there were 20 people last year who bought for two years. Since the News-Sun article on June 17, thousands have renewed for two years since that date. Mott-Richie expected a lot of upset taxpayers because of the hike. And in an office that prides itself on customer service, that means a lot. "We've had a few grumbles, but not a lot out of the ordinary because of this. People are not happy about the increase, but they understand it is not us," Mott-Richie said. "What I did not expect was the response. June is usually our com- mercial renewal month, and we have had an outstanding response to this," she said. "We have collected about 98 percent of our taxes because of this. More than we thought we would at this stage with this economy." "I am amazed at the impact the newspaper article had," Bryan added. "We expected some, but no where near the response we have had so far." Bryan was still a little shocked by. what the increase, which his office would not see a penny of, would. cost the county in expendable rev- enue. "This will cost every man, woman and child in Highlands County $54.87 more per year," Continued on page 3A dd 4 * * - - - _ O - o - - pmma e . - .5 - a ilable . me .

That adds up to be more than $5.6 million in cash that will leave Highlands County this coming year, according to Bryan's staff. And that means less discretionary income for those who shop, eat and play in the county. Right now, according to Bryan, there is nothing tax- payers can do at this stage to alter 'the increase, except look ahead if they can. "Our goal is to let the peo- ple of Highlands County know that they will save money by buying their tags and licenses now and do it for two years," Bryan said. "But they can call their legislator if they .feel this increase is too much," he added. "If enough people respond to the Legislature about this, they will think harder next time about rais- ing fees." First-time registration will increase from $180 to $390 plus sales tax, and the renew- al fee for a mid-sized pick-up or large sedan will go up from a little more than $46 to $71.15. "The House and Senate slid this through prior to most of us having the knowledge it 'If enough people respond to the Legislature about this, they will. think harder next time about raising fees.' CHARLES BRYAN county tax collector was happening," Bryan said earlier. "But the word is get- ting out now. People have read it, and they are asking for it." Although Bryan's office does not offer driver license services, that renewal fee will increase as well, from $20 to $48. Flood insurance rates could go. up Continued from page 1A the DCA states that the majority of those affected are going to be special needs and elderly "When are you going to start enforcing the flood plain ordinance?" Colby asked. "I was not aware that we were not," County Administrator Michael Wright said. But neither Wright nor the commissioners had any response to the question of the increase in residences in the already mapped flood plains from 1998 until 2006. No figures were presented for the development growth from 2006 until now in those areas. Stewart directed County Attorney Ross Macbeth investigate the matter, and report back to the Board. Preservation of the current lakes along the ridge was a large part of the discussion, and concerns were raised over more development along the lake shores. Avon Park resident Gabe Reed asked if the county was willing to wait until the actu- al data was available. "In light of his presenta- tion, do you anticipate stalling these large projects. until you get the actual word- ing of his order not to lose these lakes that he is talking about?" Reed asked commis- sioners. Stewart replied that each development was presented to the DCA and SFWMD has ample opportunity to com- ment and review those devel- opments. Hammond confirmed that assertion was correct, and that his agency was involved at the permitting and approval stages. Commissioner Don Bates made the statement that restoring the lakes is harder than preserving the lakes. Hammond said he agreed with that statement. Continued from page 1A Association as a National Rally, one of only four in the country, and as the "largest family friendly rally in Florida." "My first thought was 'Wow!' There are larger ral- lies but not all of them are kid friendly," Todd said. "This year there will be a salute to law enforcement. ,There are many past and current law enforcement officers that ride motorcy- cles. We would like to encourage them to join us. "We are working closely with local agencies, as well as other law enforcement organizations throughout the state to provide displays and demonstrations." There will be a fashion show sponsored by local leather shop T.J.'s Leather, demonstrations by the Central Florida Motorcycle SDrill Team, a bike show sponsored by Full Throttle 'Last year we had over 55,000 people visit the downtown area.' LORA TODD marketing director Magazine, a scenic 100- plus-mile poker run provid- ed by ABATE Inerstate Chapter, bike builders and musical performances by popular Broward County band White Collar Crime and a blues performance by Deb and the Dynamics on Saturday night and by local favorite Groovus on Sunday. In addition to the enter- tainment, there will be tons of vendors, great food and great fun. "We have actually changed things around some this year," Todd said. "Our stage is going to be more audience friendly. We are moving it into the Circle. It will be more comfortable for our guests. There will be more room and more places for people to sit and enjoy the music." Organizers are looking forward to a great crowd, as bike events seem to be hold- ing their own despite the economy. The event is still- free to the public, vendor spaces remain affordable; and our atmosphere is laid back and relaxed. "People come here to explore," Todd said. "They go home get their friends and come back. Word of mouth has been our best advertisement. Last year we had over 55,000 people visit the downtown area in just one weekend. That is by far the largest downtown event ever! We look forward-to possibly increasing those numbers."

What are they planning for the air space? How will this new facility impact the water supply? I would just like to learn more about this proj- ect," said Amber Brats, also a board member of Save Our Creeks. Other environmental clubs were also in attendance for the meeting, including mem- bers of the Audobon Society, and the local Sierra Club, Calusa Group. Although the county opted to delay the public hearing, many citizens stayed to com- ment; on the subject until the end of the meeting. Leonard Bryant, a resident of Lake Placid, voiced his displeasure over the planned facility. "It seems that Avon Park has a 100,000 acres for their facility. That is a better buffer than the site proposal in Venus," Bryant said. "How many more (deputies) are we going to need to police the 1,000-plus people who are going to be out on the weekend after shooting guns. We have a lot of questions and not enough answers," Bryant added. Stewart addressed the pub- lic concerns by pointing them to the actions already in process. "The public needs to understand that the two actions the county, will be addressing, the remedial actions required by the stipu- lated settlement agreement between Highlands County and the owner applicant. "The second action is the proposed re-zoning of the property for a planned devel- opment," she said. "Our planning staff, would be able to provide more information, and the DCA documents are available from the DCA Web site (www.dca.state.fl.us) ... I would encourage you to con- tact the SFWMD, they were involved with DCA in reviewing this and including a number of issues," Stewart concluded. Page 3A Big crowd expected for fourth annual Run to the Heartland Page 4A EDITORIAL & OPINION News-Sun * Wednesday, August 19, 2009 TODAY'S EDITORIAL Don't play the odds when it comes to storm preparation And so it begins - that part of the hurricane season that produces the bulk of the storms. Without wishing hurri- canes on anyone else, we cer- tainly don't wish them here. From blissful peace to Ana, Bill and Claudette with- in a matter of days, and who knows what might come next. We're no more enthusiastic about hurricanes than anyone else, despite the lively copy a good storm creates. Who needs the work of preparing, the worry living through it, or the clean-up after the blow. That is why we recom- mend thinking ahead while there is plenty of time to load up the pantry, go over the check list and make sure emergency supplies are in working order. Now is the time to spend just a couple of extra dollars a week getting needed sup- plies on the shelf. Don't wait for the last minute or buy everything, at once because that can be a hard hit on the budget. Now, while there is time and no pressure, is the perfect time to prepare at leisure. Is the generator ready to run? Batteries on hand? Extra water put aside? Pet food? First-aid kit? Important papers gathered in one place? A plan of action worked out? Now is a good time to become pro-active. Get trees trimmed, cover- ings for windows, make space inside for the outdoor items that will need to be stored. Getting early prep work out of the way now makes things much easier when the barometric pressure is drop- ping and a storm's outer bands scudding overhead. Yes, yes, we know, who wants to think about these things at this moment, espe- cially the additional costs in a hard economy? The harsh truth is, however, that hurri- canes are serious storms and cannot be taken for granted. It is as foolish to decide the odds are in our favor and pretend there is no danger as it is to panic each time a trop- ical depression forms off the coast of Africa. Tropical Storm Fay flood- ed out portions of south Highlands County just last year, the first recorded storm to make landfall in Florida four different times. Hurricane Charley, hitting Florida on Aug. 13, 2004, was the strongest, costliest storm since Andrew in 1992, and was followed by three other hurricanes within six weeks, Francis and Jeanne passing over head, Ivan glancing by on its way to the panhandle. All of which is to say nature is not a statistics equa- tion, but a interconnected mixture of climate, wind cur- rents, topography, and oceanography, with a little human psychology thrown in. In other words, just because the mathematical odds say one thing, the spin- ning planet may say another - it is.best to be prepared.

When you love what you do it shows, and if you're lucky you can infect others with the joy you carry. This summer has been a dream come true. I can honestly say that there is no other place I would have preferred to spend the past three months. M linl orgia rtkins The faces that grace millions of TV sets in America each morning became more than familiar to me. Robin, Chris, Diane and Sam became like friends and family. I also learned the power of the people behind the camera. From security, to the fitness trainer, all the way to the executive producer, they all made me feel at home. So as I begin my last week with ABC this time around, I enter it with an humble heart. Unfortunately, several of my co-workers will be on vacation during my last week including "Auntie Robin." I said good- bye to her with tears in my eyes and too much pride to let them fall until I saw her dry a single tear trying to escape her eye. I could not have prayed for a better life. Leaving New York is bittersweet, but I am anxious to return to my family. My 4-year-old broth- er has been begging me to come home all summer and the 16-year-old thinks he's too cool to say he misses me. I miss you too! Georgia Dawkins ofSebring, a senior broadcast journalism stu- dent at Florida A&M University, has been working with ABC in New York. She is a frequent con- tributor to the News-Sun. TODAY'S LETTERS Hard time proving disability Editor: I am 56 years old and have worked as an operating room nurse for 30 years. I developed rheuma- toid arthritis four years ago and had several operations to my hands and feet which caused me to retire from a job I dearly loved. My hus- band is self-employed and we have been paying for our own health insurance at a cost of $1,440 monthly. We cannot shop around for cheaper insurance as no one will cover me due to prior medical history. I recently developed a new med- ical problem due to my advance rheumatoid arthritis and saw a spe- cialist in Sebring on Aug. 3. He ordered a CT scan and blood work. The office scheduled the test and ,Aug. 5 the hospital called to inform me that I would have to pay out of pocket as my $5,000 deductible has not been met. She told me the test would cost $5,040. This year we were forced to increase our deductible to $5,000 and it still left us with a monthly fee of $1,440. I was forced to can- cel the test and inform my doctor that I could not have the CT scan done. I applied for medical disability July 14, 2008, and have been denied three times. Now I am wait- ing for a court date which they told me would take 12-16 months in Highlands County. To date I have waited five months for a court date. The new administration and the media are saying that our Social Security is going bankrupt, but I say this would not happen if we stopped paying for those who have never contributed to Social Security. For those who collect welfare, food stamps and SSI, they should have to pay the money back at some point in time. My father left my mother with three children in 1955 and she worked to keep all three of us. There wasn't any wel- fare then, but she managed to sur- vive. I wrote to my senator, congress- man and any public servants that I could to help me obtain my disabil- ity. I only heard from one who told me that she could not help me because I had an attorney. I only obtained an attorney after I was denied three times for disability. We have used up my pension and all our savings to continue paying for our insurance. I refuse to be a burden to my country. I have paid dearly for 30 years Copyrighted Mateial S| Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers and all I ask is to-receive my Social Security benefits early as I cannot work. It seems like a rea- sonable request but I have worked all my life and now I have to go to court to prove that I deserve my disability. I do not think we would have so many people taking from our Social Security fund, which have not paid in, if they had to go through what I am going through to qualify. It doesn't make sense to me. I wonder how many others would agree? Ida DiStefano Lake Placid Some people not using their brain Editor: What is happening to some of the so-called citizens of the United States? When my children were just babies, they were taught how to share their toys, how to behave and how to take turns. So does this mean that my babies were more adult than a lot of the adults of today are? Some of the actions seen on tele- vision remind me of a lot of little Hitlers, trying to become dictators. Are their actions what our country was meant to happen? Did our forefathers want this kind of 'behavior from our citizens? Is this what our boys have always fought for and some died for? Is this what our boys are fighting for and dying for, even today? Right now I am as mad as hell, if you will please forgive my curs- ing. If we disagree on what the United States stands for and want to have a dictatorship, then say so. It could then be voted for or against in a peaceful manner. Why would anyone want to join in with a gang of ignorant bullies and disrupt a peaceful town hall meeting? Why can't people take turns talking about their thoughts and opinions about different things that Rre going on? I nMay be a 90-year-old widow, but I will stand up to anyone in the whole world and tell them what I think and my opinions. In turn, I would gladly listen to their thoughts and ideas. At the same time, I would not try to force them to think my way. In case some peo- ple do not remember what this means, it is called freedom of speech. Many people of today only hear a noise when someone else is talk- ing. They do not listen to what,the words mean. I have seen and heard President Obama on television no less than six times, when he has clearly said that the health reform would not take' away people's choice of their health plan. If they were happy with the plan that they have now, they should keep it. It is amazing that I have lived this long and can still use my brain. It is a shame that more peo- ple do not seem to have that same ability. Marion Sander-Paquin Plantation Wake up and smell the coffee, America Editor: I wonder if it has occurred to the people in America, and the world for that matter, that th6 town hall hysteria over President Obama's health care plan for all Americans seemingly took root suspiciously in a relatively short time, well-organ- ized and nurtured by the same group that blatantly over public tel- evision wished our President would fail? Many people are out of work, some have been looking for a job for months. A nice little roll of greenbacks would be hard for some to turn down. No training necessary, only will- ingness to lie, stir up unrest and sow the seeds of hate and fear. Those who are uninformed, whose morals are in question, would be the candidates of choice. Republicans whose noses are out . of joint, who continue to sting under the cloud of defeat, would be perfect teammates to work with special interest groups, a few Democrats, as well. This method of destruction is designed to spread cells of hatred throughout the United States. It is herd mentality. Money talks! Some will not hesitate to do all kinds of crimes for gratification of money. Murder, sell their children, even try to sabotage our President. Jesus said, "The love of money is the root of all evil." We are see- ing that to be true. It appears Rush Limbaugh over national radio and Sarah Palin have much in common. Both diligently trying to be leaders but never mak- ing the cut. Oh please America, wake up and smell the coffee! Una V. McLaughlin Sebring Thanks for good articles Editor: As you grow older and pass the three-quarter century mark, it is very rare in today's world when a nice surprise is printed in the paper. I am referring to the Aug. 12 edition, (in) which is a letter to the editor by Betty Howard, Lake Placid, titled, "Ecofiomics 101" was 150 percent on the mark. Betty, congratulations - keep them coming. Another article entitled, "Obama Care a Trojan Horse" by Dale O'Leary, along with Betty Howard's letter; I was pleasantly surprised both letters pointed out the truth of what Obama and the Democrats are trying to do. Namely lead us into Socialism where our country will be run by unelected bureaucrats. The first step has been taken by the 30-plus czars, appointed by Obama, who are not controlled by Congress. America, wake.up! We are in serious trouble. Congratulations Betty Howard and Dale O'Leary for getting the truth out to the peo- ple. Charles A. Marr Avon Park www.newssun.com WWW. newssun. com News-Sun * Wednesday, August 19, 2009 Drug Free Highlands learns about BRITE program Special to the News-Sun SEBRING - Florida Hospital was one of the char- ter members of Drug Free Highlands, along with the Highlands County Sheriff's Office and the Highlands County School Board. The hospital has continued to serve as the meeting place foi Drug Free Highlands' month- ly coalition meetings, held from 9-10:45 a.m. the second Wednesday of each month. The coalition is made up of at least 35 different organiza- tions and individual members who are committed to work- ing on ways to keep our county youth off of drugs. The specific fodus of the entire coalition at this time, based upon grant funding, is on underage drinking and tobacco. However, the sher- iff's office is also working diligently on illegal prescrip- tion drug sales and metham- phetamine laboratories. Each month, members share their programs progress and about their initiatives. The coalition also seeks ways to better know each other. As such, one member or organi- zation gives a 15-minute presentation. At the recent meeting, Mark Medick, of Daybreak Behavioral Health (DBH) and a BRITE Educator for Florida Hospital, shared about two programs he is currently involved with. Medick is new to the coalition, but DBH has been very active for the past five years and serves as the "host" for all the meetings. The Florida BRITE (Brief Intervention and Treatment for Elders) Project is a statewide program that iden- tifies adults 55 and older who are at risk for medication misuse and/or alcohol abuse. The BRITE Program pro- vides individualized in-home health screenings, personal- ized assessment, health edu- cation intervention, advice and problem solving, advoca- cy, information and referrals. BRITE's objectives are to identify seniors at risk for alcohol abuse or prescription medication misuse, educate seniors about the side effects of mixing alcohol and med- ications, encourage seniors who are drinking too much to cut down on their alcohol use, provide intervention services or outpatient educa- tion and identify seniors who are depressed and provide help These services are provid- ed free of charge.

Changes made to Farm Storage Facility Loan program Special to the News-Sun GAINESVILLE - Debby Folsom, acting state executive director of USDA's Farm Service Agency in Florida has announced that changes to the Farm Storage Facility Loan (FSFL) program have been imple- mented in accordance with the 2008 Farm Bill. The USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) ,administers FSFL on behalf of the USDA Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC). "This program helps to ensure that -pro- ducers have adequate capacity to store their harvested production until they sell it on the open market," said Folsom. The FSFL Program provides low-interest financing for producers of eligible com- modities to build or upgrade farm storage and handling facilities. The maximum prin- cipal amount of a loan through FSFL is $500,000. Participants are required to pro- vide a down payment of 15 percent, with CCC providing a loan for the remaining 85 percent of the net cost of the eligible stor- age facility and permanent drying and han- dling equipment. Loan terms of seven, 10 or 12 years are available depending on the amount of the loan. Interest rates for each term rate may be different and are based on the rate which CCC borrows from the Treasury Department. Payments are available in the form of a partial disbursement and the remaining final disbursement. The partial disbursement will be available after a portion of the construc- tion has been completed. The final fund dis- bursement will be made when all construc-, tion is completed. The maximum amount of the partial disbursement will be 50 percent of the projected and approved total loan amount. Applications for FSFL must be submitted to the FSA county office that maintains the farm's records. An FSFL must be approved before any site preparation or construction can begin. For more information about FSFL or other FSA price support program, visit the FSA county office or www.fsa.usda.gov.

The" mural will go on the wall of the Thrift Shop next to the church. �Newest mural in Lake Placid will depict Jesus 'Feeding the 5,000' Continued from page 1A background coming up the hill towards Jesus, the Sea of Galilee in the background." Myers said. "He said that he tried to do that twice and it just wasn't right." When church officials saw the color rendering and Goodson explained the changes, they were more .than sasrflied. The mural will blend into the surroundingsby incorpo- rating a Florida n!Lnset. "That's what I really remember about this place is the sunset," Goodson said. 'The biggest thing I like to do is make people happy. 'I like it when people enjoy my work. That's what I live for. KEITH GOODSON artist "About 6:30, when the sun is shining down, the whole ambiance (of the finished mural) will come alive." Before he starts to put 'brush to wall, Goodson draws lines and makes sure his ratios are right to repro- duce a piece this large from a smaller drawing. "Once you have the ratios right you can accurately pro- duce on the wall," he said. Then he uses a painting technique called grisaille, where he first draws the entire mural in burnt umber and then adds color, eventu- ally leading to the finished product. "The biggest thing I like to do is make people happy," he said. "I like it when peo- ple enjoy my work. That's what I live for."

By DAN HOEHNE daniel.hoehne@newssun.com SEBRING - Comeback attempts weren't going to be easy Sunday as the Sertoma Jr. Championship event switched over to the Deer Run course of the Sun 'N Lake Golf Club - but attempts were made, espe- cially in the Boys 17-18 grouping. After Saturday's 69 on the Turtle Run course, Greg Gentry's 82 Sunday was just enough to stave off Blake Liles 80 and Clay Davis' blis- tering 75, to come away with the tournament win. Sean Garner went 82-81 on the weekend to hold off Lincoln Saunders (86-86) and Colin Walkup (89-86) in the 15-16 boys age group while Will Bennett topped the 13-14 boys with a 94-90 to stay ahead of William Beattie's 96-94 and L.C. Smith's 100-99. Silas Berry did come back from a two-stroke deficit in the Boys 11-12, being behind Ben Tubbs 47-49 Saturday, before turning it around with a 47 to Tubbs 50 Sunday for a 96-97 weekend win. In the 9-10 boys, Charlie Anderson went 53-53 for a 106 to win, with Sam Weber- Callahan going 55-55 for 110 and second. Camiel White (89-84) found the Deer Run course to her liking to drop five shots from her Saturday round and take the Girls 14-18 champi- onship over Paige Moffat (91-88) and Sarah Liles (90- 92) to hold her overall tour lead and get the season win. Kendall, Griffin followed her 46 Saturday with a 54 Sunday for an even 100 and the Girls 11-13, 9-hole win over Emily Waller's 59-56- 115 and Zach Doorlag went 34-41 for a 75 in the Boys/Girls 6-8 grouping to top firs-year player. Seanna Hornick's 54-48 for a 102. And Another Thing... Dan Hoehne Alleged choke could serve as wake-up call Coaches, athletes, the viewing and reading public will likely just say that I'm stating the obvious when I suggest that in the world of sports coverage, the media is loaded up with hypocrites. For years, scribes and broadcasters have lamented tii : tte'bf t'e PGA, iii that; there was nobody who seemed to have the cojones to truly challenge Tiger SWoods. Players, here and there, nould suggest that they could and some seemed of the talent and poise to actu- ally do more than suggest. But time and again, as we've bore witness to, these would-be challengers, when squared off against the pre- eminent golfer of our time, folded like so many cheap suits. And it didn't just seem to be that way, one could always say that Tiger just plays better when he's com- ing down the stretch. And while he often did, the numbers show that when paired with Woods on the final day in the last group, their scores soared. Well, maybe not soared, but did go up, on average, three or four strokes. Players, upon facing off against him in this setting, averaged a round.of over �par. ' Which, perhaps is why Woods got into a state of mind playing it safe, erring on the side of pars. After all, if he's got a two shot lead, and he closest .competitor generally shoots over par on the final day, then all he needs to do is shoot par, or one or two under, to secure yet another win. But lo and behold, the challenge finally came, someone from the pack of would-be's stood up and did be. Yong-eun Yang, a 37-year old from Seoul, South Korea, whose athletic career started as a weightlifter and who only took up golf at the age of 19.

"About 35 have turned out this year for varsity, but everyone who is here wants to be here," Bonjokian said. Bonjokian added that he expected about 65 on the J.V. team this year. The Double-Wing offense that the Red Devils are run- ning this year gives them a lot of flexibility, according to Bonjokian, and allows them to play to their strengths. "Teddy Allen is one of our key offensive players this year, and he is familiar with the system. We expect big things out of Teddy this year," Bonjokian said. Allen and fellow running back Eric Jamison will give Avon Park the 1-2 punch needed to move the ball offensively. Tekovian Miller currently has the starting quarterback position, and his speed and quick decision making should be an asset to the backfield, according to Bonjokian. Seniors David Edmondson and Cleveland Nobles will again provide some anchor points to the offensive line, but the sur- prise of the summer, Bonjokian said, is wide receiver David Callahan. Available o pA News-Sun photo by ED BALDRIDGE Dwayne Council will anchor a lean-and-mean defensive backfield from his linebacker position for the Red Devils this season. "He (Callahan) has really come along this last summer. He played for us in the spring, and has grown a lot in a short time. His maturity is really coming along, and he is catching the ball. We are looking for some good things from him .this year. He has earned a starting position, and has stepped up and done a really good job over the summer," Bonjokian said. "Overall, I am very pleased with the work the kids have done this summer. We seem to be ahead of the game as far as.understanding the program goes," Bonjokian said. Dwayne Council returns for the Big Red machine this year, and provides a look at the leaner and meaner defen- sive backfield at linebacker. "Count is always there for us. His play was exceptional coming out of last season," Bonjokian said.. According to Bonijokian, Albertus Maxim at free safe- ty will also provide some speed to the Devil defense.

Students must also complete all credit hours for which they received the scholarship. If students drop or withdraw from any class, they must pay back the money for incomplete hours to the college. "The college must pay back the money to the state, and students must pay back the college," said Susie Johnson, SFCC Financial Aid director. "However, once that money is paid back, it will be restored for the student the next aca- demic year."
