Edneys enjoy special tour of White HousebySamanthaHurst

Barbara Edney talks fondly of rubbing the curly head of a black and white Portugese water dog on a recent impromptu vacation with her husband, Carl, and their daughter Julie’s family.

She then points out, “We had never seen anything like this – we even got to see Bo, the Obama’s dog.”

The Edneys’ daughter, Julia Tulloch, is an optometrist in Arden who went to high school and college with Sandy Kuhlman, wife of presidential doctor Jeffery Kuhlman. Dr. Jeffrey Kuhlman is one of several doctors dedicated to the health of President Barack Obama. He was also on hand as a doctor for the Bush administration.

The Kuhlmans recently had the opportunity to invite their friends Julie and Tim Tullock to

the White House for a personal tour and lunch. The Tullocks also brought along their son, Chad, and Julie’s par-ents, Carl and Barbara Edney of Tryon.

Getting an invitation for an inside look at the White House can of-ten take up to six months, the Edneys said. They, howev-er, were lucky enough to have t h e i r b a c k -grounds checked within weeks in order to head off to Washing-ton Sept. 14-18.

“We had to go through six checkpoints and steel doors to get to the West Wing,” Carl Edney said. “I had never seen so many secret service, but before long we were able to tour the West Wing. We spent the whole day, about eight hours, in the White House.”

Barbara said she felt the fam-

ily received an exclusive look. “We had someone with us the

whole time who could unlock doors for us at areas where oth-ers couldn’t go further on the

tour,” Barbara said.

Family saw the pre-festivi-ties leading up to a medal of honor ceremo-ny to be held later that day for a sergeant. They viewed portraits of all the presidents and presidents’ wives. They spent time in Dr. Kuhlman’s o f f i c e a n d

saw the rose garden where the Obama’s daughters often play with Bo, the family dog.

The Edneys and Tullochs also enjoyed lunch in the West Wing and saw that most every room was filled with fresh-cut flowers from the White House garden.

“Just walking the grounds and then walking in those doors and being able to see everything – oh, my, it was such an experi-ence,” Barbara Edney said.

“We had to go through six checkpoints and steel doors to get to the West Wing. I had never seen so many secret service, but before long we were able to tour the West Wing. We spent the whole day, about eight hours, in the White House.”

work were $37,500.Residents in the Woods sub-

division have been experiencing discolored water for about a year.

The water from the well has been tested as safe to drink nu-merous times, but reports are that the discoloration is so bad nearby residents cannot use it.

Councilman Michael Gage said one resident he’s spoken to pur-chases bottled water to use in the home and will not drink the water.

The town has tried numerous fixes to address the problem, in-cluding filters, but to no avail.

“After months of efforts at staff level to control this issue, we finally believe this is the only cost-effective solution left before us,” said Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe.

Council decided to approve the lower engineering estimate for the project, which will include the town crew doing the actual work. Much of the cost is associated with engineering and reporting fees, because state approval is needed for a well system project prior to construction. The state approval process will likely take three to four months, according to Kanipe. The actual work will take about a week to complete.

“I think as long as we’ve been battling this project, we should get our guys to do it,” said Gage.

Sequestering does not remove

iron from the water, according to a report submitted by engineer/vice-president Brian Tripp, with WK Dickson, who will be contracted for the design and permitting of the project.

Sequestration binds the iron in soluble form, preventing the com-pound from oxidizing on contact with air or chlorine, said the report.

“Sequestering prevents staining of plumbing fixtures and discol-oration of the water, but a slight

metallic taste remains,” the report said. “Se-questering is ac-complished us-ing a phosphate chemical feed.”

C o u n c i l -woman Marga-ret Metcalf ex-pressed concern over the “me-tallic taste” that

will occur after the process.Kanipe said the town has done

everything it can at this point. If the sequestration process doesn’t work, the town will be looking at much higher-cost estimates to fix the problem, with the last resort being to drill a new well.

The well is located between Pe-niel and Peake streets in the Woods subdivision area. It is one of the town’s largest wells, producing an estimated 300 - 400 gallons of water per minute.

Kanipe estimated it could be next March before the project can be completed as a result of the time-table for state permitting approval.

Funding for the project will be taken from the town’s water and sewer fund contingency, which cur-rently has approximately $61,000, according to town council reports.

Polk school bus flips after Burgess Road gives wayNo injuries reportedbyLeahJustice

A Polk County School bus flipped down an embankment early this morning after the road gave way, according to Polk County School officials.

The accident occurred just af-ter 6:30 a.m. on Burgess Road off Coopers Gap Road in the Sunny View community.

Officials with the Polk County Schools Administrative office said the bus was early on the route and had four students on-board; two Polk County Middle School students and two Polk County High School students.

The driver, whose name has not been released, pulled over to let a vehicle pass on the gravel road and the bus overturned.

Polk County School Super-intendent Bill Miller said it is uncommon for a bus to meet another vehicle on Burgess Road

and that is what happened in this case. The bus pulled over to let another car by and the road gave way underneath, causing the bus to overturn and flip down an embankment.

School officials said the driver performed calmly and admirably and got all the students off the bus safely.

All students were taken to the hospital for observation, but no major injuries were reported. The bus driver did not seek medical attention, according to Miller.

“We’re so fortunate no one was hurt,” Miller said.

Miller said he would describe the students’ injuries as bumps and bruises. All students were released to their parents.

The last school bus accident in Polk County occurred in the 2004-2005 school year when a bus hit a rock that was sticking out of an embankment in the Holbert’s Cove Road area. No one was injured in that accident.

Diet & Exercise by David Crocker

Chomping apples and PLU codesWe’ve all heard the saying,

“an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” but did you know there’s more truth to that old adage than most people realize?

That’s right, apples are really delicious, low in calories and still very inexpensive. The two most popular varieties are Red Delicious and Granny Smith, but there are literally hundreds of apple varieties to choose from.

Just why are apples so good for us anyway?

Well, first, apples are a great source of both soluble and in-soluble fiber. The soluble fiber from apples comes in the form of pectin. Pectin helps prevent the build up of cholesterol in the lining of blood vessels, thereby helping reduce risk of heart disease.

Insoluble fiber from apples provides bulk needed by the intestinal tract to help keep food moving through the body. Pectin in apples also helps bring blood pressure to normal levels, and regulates the body’s blood sugar levels.

Apples contain an exclusive flavanoid called phloridzin, that may protect post-menopausal women from osteoporosis by increasing bone density. Ap-ples also contain boron, which strengthens bone. Researchers believe that apples may reduce the risk of lung, breast, liver, prostate and colon cancers.

One Cornell University study showed that children who drank apple juice on a daily basis, had fewer asthma symptoms that children who didn’t, and another Cornell study found that quer-cetin, found in apples, protected brain cells from free radical dam-age, that may lead to Alzheimer’s disease.

Apples are also great for those trying to lose weight, because they’re low in calories, and fat free.

Also, their high fiber con-tent helps you feel fuller, lon-ger. I recommend eating apples

with the skin on, because about half of an apple’s vitamin C content is found in its skin. Apples also make an ideal prod-uct for whitening teeth, due to their astringent properties.

Apples, and other crunchy produce, like celery, and carrots act like tiny little toothbrushes when chewed.

When choosing apples, or any other produce at your local grocers, I rec-ommend you learn how to

read the produce PLU code. Most people don’t know that this code tells you a lot about your fruits and vegetables. PLU stands for price look up, and is a series of numbers found on a tiny sticker affixed to the fruit or vegetable.

If there are four numbers in the code, the produce was con-ventionally grown. That is, the produce was grown with chemi-cal inputs. Not the best for you.

If the number in the code be-gins with 8, there will be a series of five numbers. This means the produce was genetically engi-neered. Stay away from those.

If the PLU code begins with the number 9, it will also be in a series of five numbers. That means that the produce was or-ganically grown. Choose those.

I recommend you become a label reader. Pay attention to how your food was grown, processed and from where it comes.

You’ll not only enjoy your food more, but you’ll be healthier for it.

The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (UUF) will meet at the Tryon Youth Center on Rt. 176 on Sunday, Sept. 25 at 10:30 a.m. Reverend Jean Rowe will speak on the topic, “Going Home.”

“Is it true that one can’t go home again? Or are there other ways of finding home? Much of life, it seems, is a quest for at home-ness, finding the place (or people) just right, finding peace and warmth and belonging. Many never find it. Finding the right vocation or avocation is a kind of homecoming, as well. There are activities where we find our true abode, and activities that just aren’t for us that we just can’t dwell in, as well. End of life is-sues are another kind of going home. We’ll explore these many facets of “going home,” and sing about it, as well,” said Rowe.

Following the 10:30 a.m. ser-vice, there will be a reception with food, punch and coffee.

On Sunday, Sept. 25 at noon, a memorial service will be held for Robert Shuford, longtime member of TUUF, board member and dear friend who died in early August following complications from diabetes. For information call 828-894 5776 or visit www. uutryonnc.org.

Dogs rule the roost in this home

“I’m Just Saying…”

by Pam Stone

I am Bonnie I am alpha dog.Squirrel!There is a flea on my bum

right now … I got into the gar-bage because I like tuna cans.

Rain is good it makes it very easy to smell what came out of the woods last night … there was pos-sum and a BIG dog! I barked and barked and M o m y e l l e d stop that bark, barking!

That donkey in the field is a murderer.

I was very sick awhile ago. I had to go to the hospital many times and my nose was bleed-ing and Mom would not tell me what she and the vet were talking about but every time we drove home Mom was crying and held me all the time.

I could not eat or walk and Rosie cried too and Dad kept saying, maybe she’ll get better and Mom would cry again and say she asked everybody on Facebook and church to pray for me. I don’t know what that is.

Then Mom told me she asked God to make me better and I said what is God and she said God is unconditional love and that’s

what you give us every day, Bon-nie, so I know God listens very carefully to all prayers for dogs.

And I am well!This is Rosie.I love Bonnie so much but

she does not love me so much because she was the only dog

and then I came to live here be-cause Mom and Dad said I am a “rescue” and need a good h o m e w h e r e

nobody will hit me anymore. Bonnie was mad but now she says it is OK, but just OK.

I have one eye. I had two eyes, but I lost one. I did not re-ally lose it the vet took it I don’t know why maybe she really likes eyes. But I see good with my other eye and I follow Bonnie everywhere.

Everybody who looks at me says to Mom why does she only have one eye and Mom says, “Well, you can’t eat a dog all at once.” They are often shocked and walk away and Mom says that will teach them not to ask rude questions.

I have to pee.OK Goodbye.Bonnie and Rosie

Developmental traumaSometimes I’m asked what

“Mind Body Connection” means. I’ve begun to explain it this way: the brain is an organ in our body with its own tasks to perform, just as the rest of our organs do.

The heart pumps blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen to our cells. The stom-ach and gut absorbs our meals to deliver food to our cells. Our kidneys filter out some of the left over waste after our food is used up … and so on.

The brain’s job is, in very simple terms, three part: to run our automatic systems (heart, lungs and the like), to produce and process our emotions, and to think.

In these terms, the mind is not just “connected” to the body: it is one part of the living body. The thinking part thinks in pictures, in words and in feelings.

The thinking pathways are through the nerves, with which our brains are packed, and which connect to everything else in our bodies. And in some ways, over time, our thinking wears ruts in our neural pathways so the thoughts we produce happen automatically.

Over the 15 plus years I’ve been a practicing therapist, I’ve noticed that what happens very early in our lives affects the neural pathways we use auto-matically and the way we think automatically for the rest of our lives, for good and for ill, until we become consciously aware of it and are able to change it.

There is extensive literature about the branch of develop-mental trauma that examines

what goes wrong, when it goes wrong - sometimes even before birth, and the long term effects of those events that were trau-matic.

Psychotherapy can often help us make the changes we want to make, from more straightfor-ward problems such as being able to pass trucks on a wind-ing highway without anxiety or panic, to more complicated problems such as learning how to trust our own good judgment about other people in our lives and in our close relationships.

Just one intervention that I and my clients find very use-ful is guided imagery using pictures, words and physical feelings in order to experience sensations of safety and comfort in the body.

Then we can connect the new positive sensations to the old problems and difficulties, changing them by eliminating the fear, anger and/or sadness that we felt.

There are many other ways of changing the negative pathways in our brain. Most of the time people I work with find this kind of approach, when it’s appro-priate, is very subtle, bringing about desired changes without great effort or angst.

Best of all, the changes last over time because the brain has learned to use new neural pathways that lead to positive emotions, thoughts and feelings.

Humane Society Special Cases

Leonard Rizzo

I am often approached and asked to be on the lookout for a certain kind of dog.

Usually this occurs when someone has recently lost a pet or the one they have is aging. Many are animals I did not know or have barely known, but a few are my kids from the past.

After sincere condolences my message is al-ways the same, “Unfortunately God only lends them to us.”

I have recently received the message that Dolly, one of my kids from the past, has left us. She was a sweet Saint Bernard who gave great hugs. The sto-ries I am told (which all are true) are that how special their dog was, as I felt about my Monty and feel today about my Allie.

The perfect dog to fulfill these situations are not always easy, but they’re out there as depicted in my “Best medicine” stories.

Still, when the time is right and the folks are sincerely ready, I can often make a pretty good match.

A few weeks ago I was ap-proached by a dear lady and told they’d lost their beloved dachshund and would I keep an eye out. Keeping up is difficult to do, so I added their names to my watch list and put it on the back burner.

Then one morning while leaving breakfast at TJ’s, a friend pulled up and shouted, “Lennie, I’m glad I’ve caught you, I have a problem.”

It was Frances, a good friend and often a breakfast companion with our group.

“What is it dear, I’m a lit-tle pressed for time,” I said. Frances walked me to her car and pointed in the back seat.

“I found her laying by the road near my house, she is very pregnant,” Frances said. It was a cute little dachshund who had her head on her paws and just looked up at me with

Sometimes it’s just mean to besad eyes.

“Can you help her Lennie?” Frances asked pleadingly.

“I have to get to work this morning but I’ll take her over to Landrum vet, they’ll hold her till I figure something out,” I said. I opened the door and sat in with her a moment, she was

v e r y l o v i n g and receptive and most defi-nitely pregnant. She seemed in g o o d h e a l t h and re l i shed

my hands on her as I quick-ly examined her for injury or mistreatment. I estimated her to be around 3 years old. F rances a sked , “How do you think she got there?” As I scooped her up in my arms I said, “I can only assume dear and you don’t want to know what I think.”

I gave Frances a reassur-ing hug, placed the dachs-hund in my car and head-e d t o w a r d L a n d r u m v e t . “Don’t worry Darlin, no one will abandon you again,” I said, stoking her as I drove.

When I arrived, only Elaine, their staff chief was there and her eyes lit up when she saw what I was holding.

“I think she was dumped, Elaine and it looks like pups are on the way, could you all take her on until I figure out what to do?”

“No problem Lennie,” she replied, eager to take her from me.

“Thanks dear, I have to get to work, but I’ll check in after my shift,” I said.

“What shall we call her?” Elaine asked.

“I’ve been calling her Dar-lin,” I replied.

“Okay,” Elaine answered giggling, “Darlin without the G.”

After work I headed back to see how Darlin was doing. I learned from Dr. Raines that she’d already had her pups and was drying up, other-

wise she was in good health. “ T h a n k s , D o n n a , w e ’ r e slammed at the shelter but I’ll get her there as soon as I can,” I said.

“Oh no,” Donna replied, “We all agreed, she’s to stay here till we find her a home.”

Elaine stood by grinning as I doled out tearful hugs all around.

The next day when I went to check on Darlin and a few of my other kids, I noticed the name Rizzo was replaced on her card and Darlin was changed to Molly.

It seems Elaine had called the very people who had con-tacted me a few weeks ago and they came in and adopted the sweet little girl on the spot. I looked up to the heavens with a big smile on my face and whis-pered a silent prayer of thanks.

“I should have known bet-ter. I may fall down on the job now and then, but You never do,” I said.

For those of you who read last week’s column, a quick update.

Jewel is now running around and playing with a whole group of dogs at Dogwood Farms. I literally wept with joy when I saw her playfully interacting for the first time.

It seems all who meet her just love her, even the other dogs. Her problems remain but there has been noticeable improvement. Thanks again to my angel who is still paying for her meds and to Dr. Jones who is paying for her special vitamins and who left a nice donation for her care at Dogwood Farms. He also supports Lennie’s kids every chance he gets. Bless them all.

Blossom, the beautiful Am-Staff, has found a home, much thanks to Josh.

Muffin is doing okay but pre-fers women to men. She ignores Josh and even myself but sits and looks up with loving atten-tion when Astrid (Josh’s lovely wife) tends to her.

Bojangles had his leg re-moved and the operation went beautifully, the leg is gone but the purr machine remains in tact. Bo also has a home and will be joining two other little white tripods as soon as he heals up.

Elaine also had a hand in this adoption, she’s on a roll. It is a perfect scenario for little Bo, God bless you Bud, but some-how I think He already has.

Today I kind of feel like Tiny Tim from the Christmas Carol and I just want to shout out “God bless you one and all.”

Thanks for listening.

Q. should I use my applicable exclusion ($1million) during my lifetime or upon my death?A. Many people have the misconception that it is best to “save” their applicable exclusion amount until their death.However, a more powerful leveraging technique is to utilize it during your lifetime. If you use your applicable exclusion amount by making lifetime gifts, the value of the gifts will appreciate in the recipients’ hands and not in your taxable estate. Between investment growth and inflation, the value of the gift should be substantial. For example, assuming the value of your gift will double every 7.2 years, if your life expectancy is 21 more years, a $1 million gift will be worth $8 million in the hands of the recipients at the end of the time. assuming a 55% tax rate, you would have to leave over $17.7 million to provide your heirs with the same amount.Call (828) 696 1811 for info on this or other planning techniques.

Polk Central School held its annual Grandparents’ Day celebration on Friday, Sept. 9. More than 400 grandparents visited their grandchildren. They were treated to classroom activities honoring them and a tour of the school. Principal Dottie Kinlaw greeted the grandparents in the media senter and expressed appreciation for the role they play in the lives of their grandchildren. She also thanked the volunteer “grandfriends” who came to be with students whose grandparents were unable to visit that day. (article and photos submitted by Julie Stott)

Grandparents’ Day celebration at Polk Central

Reilly Yoder participates in a craft project with his “Grandfriend,” Norma Bowyer, on Grandparents’ Day at Polk Central.

Sisters Lindsey and Lauren Dotson enjoy Polk Central Grandparents’ Day with their grandparents, Robert and Debbie Gilbert.

Lis and Virgil Stucker visit their grandson, Polk Central first grader, Ben McMahon.

Zhakirah Wilkins’ aunt, Bonita Davis, spends time at Polk Central for Grandparents’ Day.

Mid-September is considered the optimal time to fertilize cool season grasses in Polk County. Tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass are the most common cool season grasses grown. Locally tall fescue is the predominant turfgrass found in lawns.

“Four of the past five years have been the toughest years in several decades for fescue lawns,” said John Vining, Polk County Extension Director. “It wouldn’t be

unusual to find most homeowners needing to do some overseeding this fall.”

Fertilizing the surviving grasses is going to be particularly benefi-cial this autumn. Unfortunately the timing of this application needs to coincide with some natural rainfall or irrigation. Normally one ap-plication in mid-September and one treatment in mid-November is recommended. The first fertilizer application should have occurred

earlier this year in mid-February. By using this recommendation

you will feed your lawn two-thirds of the needed annual fertilizer in the fall when the grass can store the food in the stems and roots. Applying heavy rates of fertilizer in the spring is not wise and can often encourage just top growth. Timing of fertilizer application is important.

Saluda News &

Notationsby Bonnie Bardos

September’s promise of fall ahead“My stars in the sky made

a soft rustling sound. And I listened to them, seated on the side of the road. In those good September evenings when I felt drops of dew on my brow, like a strong wine…”

– Arthur Rimbaud

M i d - S e p t e m b e r b r i n g s splotches of color, promising fall ahead.

Flares of goldenrod spikes, apple harvest and busy squir-rels hoarding a c o r n s m a r k mellowing days.

D o w n t o w n S a l u d a , s o f t breezes rustle through maple trees, sending a leaf or two dancing along sidewalks, town benches en-courage passerby to sit, enjoy life awhile, and watch peo-ple stroll by. Mouth-watering scents waft from restaurants. Life slows down, sweet as Sa-luda honey: all a reminder to stop and enjoy the ‘little’ things of life.

One golden Saturday, I sat down on a bench with Charlotte friends, thinking how much I love Saluda: the people who continue to make it a magical place - getting hugs and smiles, petting puppies. My friends were wishing they could move here by the time they saw the charm of small town life!

Community: Thank you to all who made Saluda’s annual Char-

lie Ward Memorial Pig Out hap-pen. Charlie would have been delighted to see the warmth and love shared with good people, music, and food.

Saluda Community Land Trust meets 3 p.m. first and third Wednesday at the Pavilion at McCreery Park. Hikes are sched-uled on the first and third Sunday of each month, weather permit-ting. Meet at the library parking lot at 2 p.m. For information, call

Nancy Barnett at 749-4661 or Chuck Hearon at 749-9886.

The Saluda Tailgate Mar-ket continues on Fridays from

4:30-6:30. You can pick up just about everything you need for a lovely Indian summer meal, plus enjoy fresh-squeezed lemonade from Wylie’s stand as you enjoy the market. No one leaves with-out a smile!

On Sept. 27, bring a picnic for Music in the Park evening, which is part of Saluda’s 130th birthday celebration. This will be at McCreery Park from 6-8 p.m.

A community cookout is planned at the Saluda Center on Sept. 29, 6 p.m.

Ceri Dando, a former neigh-bor who owned the stately Oaks B&B up Greenville Street, has lived in Mexico a number of years. Recently he came by with Jacque Minick and enjoyed a visit on my front porch to catch up on Saluda news.

During the visit, they re-marked about the porch plants looking so happy: I explained it’s because my plants get morning coffee too!

Saluda artist Dale McEntire has insightful landscape paint-ings featured at Upstairs Art-space, 49 South Trade Street, Tryon through Oct. 1. Dale’s Isothermal art students are show-ing work with a sunflower theme at Saluda Center this month, so stop by both exhibits.

Dale has been a true friend and inspiration to myself and many others; he’s a special part of Saluda. Recently his hand was injured, so please send positive thoughts his way. Dale is healing well, but needs to take it easy a while.

Happy September Birth-day to Dale McEntire, Joni Rauschenbach, Peggy Mof-fat, Sonya Monts, Linda Kaye Haynes, Carol Kenfield, Debbie Fisher, Leslie Jespersen, Linda Mintz, Betty Thompson, Sheila Billeter, Cary Pace, Ross Ar-rington, Hop Foster.

Thank you, dear readers for reading this column. Every month, it’s my goal to make you feel welcome here in Saluda: as if you were enjoying a visit with me on the porch swing - that’s called ‘Saluda Time’!

Please feel free to contact me at [email protected]; or 749-1153. You may also visit my website at bonniebardos.com for more writing and art, or find me on facebook.

CWU area meeting recap

Extension Turfgrass Specialists say the benefits of fall fertilization will be a thicker, greener lawn in the fall and a stronger start-up in the spring. The recommended fall application is 1 pound of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet. This rate will coincide with the directions on most slow release and turf grade fertilizers. Those folks accustomed to using 10-10-10 fertilizer for their lawns should use the application of 10 pounds per 1,000 square feet of lawn area.

According to the staff at the Polk County Extension Center, homeowners should never put fertilizer out on wet grass unless specified by the manufacturer. There are some weed and feed products that should be applied to wet turf. Be certain to read the label of any special turf fertilizers.

For more information contact the Master Gardeners at the Polk County Extension Center. They can be reached Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to noon at 828-894-8218.

Landrum quarterback Brandon Cannon scrambles against the Chesnee defense earlier this season. The Cardinals host Liberty at 7:30 tonight in a battle of unbeatens. (photo by Joey Millwood)

Want to go?What: Landrum vs. Liberty

When: Friday, Sept. 23 @ 7:30 p.m.Where: Landrum High School

by Joey Millwood

Friday night will be a test for the Landrum football team.

The Cardinals will lock horns with Liberty, a battle of unbeat-ens. Landrum will find out how it stacks up against some fellow region foes in this game.

“It will be a big test,” Lan-drum head coach Russell Ma-haffey said.

Liberty, like Landrum, is 4-0, but two of those wins have come against Christ Church and Blacksburg.

The Cardinals will open up region play next week, but this could definitely be a window into the region as to how they stack up.

T h e R e d D e v i l s b e a t Christ Church in their open-ing game this season 20-6 . L ibe r ty bea t Blacksburg last week 34-6.

Liberty plays a double-wing offense and a shade defense that is designed to slow down the run. They’ll need it on Friday night.

The Cardinals have been dominant on the ground and in the air. Senior quarterback Brandon Cannon has been nearly impossible to stop this season. He’s picked apart de-fenses with his arm and his legs. But it doesn’t stop there for the Cardinals offense.

Cole McDowell has also proven to be a force on the

ground. McDowell ran for over 100 yards and two touchdowns last week as the Cardinals beat Dixie on the road.

Jordan Lindsey and Peyton McCarter are legitimate threats to catch the ball and get yards after the catch at any moment.

On defense, the Cardinals have gotten strong play from Cannon, T.J. Fincher, Alex Bry-

ant, Chasten Thomas and Ryan Herbst. The Cardinals have been effective this season, sometimes dominant on defense.

“We will have to work hard to contain them,” Mahaffey said.

The Cardinal defense will be whole tonight for the first time this season. The defense has played well this season, but has

done so without an integral part. That’ll all change this week.

Kaleb Kuykendall, the big hitter on the Cardinal defense, will return. Landrum will need him because Liberty’s running game is strong.

Fans can expect a big one on Friday night when these unbeatens collide. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.

Polk quarterback Alec Philpott talks on the sidelines with Coach Bruce Ollis. Philpott will spearhead the high-powered Wolverine offense tonight at Mountain Heritage. (photo by Daniel Hecht)

by Daniel Hecht

Fresh off last week’s domi-nating win over Madison, Polk County will take their perfect conference record on the road this evening, heading up the mountain to Yancey County for a showdown with the Cougars of Mountain Heritage High School.

Although the Cougars were shut out 27-0 in their conference opener at Hendersonville last week, Polk head coach Bruce Ol-lis is quick to note that a road trip to Burnsville is rarely a cakewalk.

“All conference games are huge, but the Mountain Heritage game seems to have morphed into something bigger,” said Polk head coach Bruce Ollis. “We feel like we should be in the hunt for a conference title most seasons, and Coach Robinson has their program where they are a force to be reckoned with in the WHC every year.”

The Wolverines and Cougars have shared the last two Western Highlands Conference titles.

Mountain Heritage runs a Wing-T attack out of the shotgun, an offense that can be very decep-tive because of all the faking and misdirection.

Even though the Cougars are primarily a ground-based team, with a 3-1 run to pass ratio, Ol-

lis notes that the effectiveness of their run game sets up the potential for home run passes off play action.

“They run a multitude of for-mations offensively, so we have put in a lot of preparation time on defense as a result,” said Ollis.

The Cougars will be led by middle linebacker Austin Rice, the Western Highlands Confer-ence defensive player of the year. Rice and his teammates will have their hands full attempting to contain an explosive Polk County offense that has already found the end zone 19 times.

Wolverine quarterback Alec Philpott (19 for 31, 436 yards, 3 TDs) will have a multitude of of-fensive weapons at his disposal, including Cary Littlejohn (64 car-ries for 453 yards and 9 TDs), Jay Sutton (30 carries for 147 yards and 2 TDs) and Joel Booker (16 catches for 335 yards and 3 TDs).

“This [MHHS] is a program that is just two seasons removed from playing for a state champi-onship, so we will get their best effort, and we will have to play as well as possible to come back to Columbus with a victory.”

The action begins tonight at 7:30 under the lights at Moun-tain Heritage High School in Burnsville.

Kathy Harding, pre-k director for Polk County Schools, visited the Tryon Kiwanis Club to thank them for their support of building playgrounds and giving scholar-ships to local students. Harding also discussed the pre-school programs, which are needed for transition from home to school.

In Polk County, the pre-school program is play-based with an emphasis on language for reading readiness, telling time and learn-ing numbers. In this environment, play is equal to the work of pre-paring for school.

Love of learning, ability to

socialize, and curiosity, impor-tant growth areas for young children, are strengthened in the classroom. Gross motor skills are improved by playing outside for an hour each day. Children are taught dental hygiene as they brush their teeth once a day at school.

The Kiwanis Club enjoyed Harding’s presentation very much and Club President Steve Cobb thanked her. The children’s book “A Screaming Kind of Day” will be donated to a local school.

Polk County will join the rest of the state to play its part of N.C. “Big Sweep” on Saturday, Oct. 1. During its 24-year history, more than 300,000 Big Sweep volun-teers have retrieved more than10 million pounds of debris, which is the visual equivalent of more than 25,000 football fields five feet deep in debris.

Litter can last hundreds of years in the environment. Before it decomposes, litter can hurt our economy when businesses refuse to locate to an area if it is too trashy. Tourists won’t linger in

Polk County ‘Big Sweep’ needs volunteers trashy areas, they won’t spend money, and they won’t return with their friends. Litter can be a human health hazard, when it contaminates the water supply as it decomposes. It’s also deadly to wildlife that eat litter or become entangled in it. Once entangled, wildlife attracts other wildlife to the same hazard.

Over 40 volunteers helped clean six miles of waterways and retrieved over 1,200 pounds in 2010. This year Polk County efforts will focus on the Green River along Green River Cove

Rd. Cleanups will begin at 9 a.m. and last until noon. Volunteers will meet at the Fishtop access parking area on Green River Cove Rd. Fishtop access is the large gravel parking lot at the bottom of the switchbacks coming off Holbert Cove Rd. near Interstate 26 Saluda exit.

Volunteers can contact Polk County Coordinator Mark By-ington at 828-859-6874 or go to the Big Sweep website at www.ncbigsweep.org to learn more.

Preschoolers had fun at a piggy storytime recently at the Polk County Public Library in Columbus.

After reading lots of pig stories, reciting lots of pig rhymes and fingerplays, kids created their own pudgy porker using shiny red apples and gumdrops.

Preschool storytime is held each Tuesday morning at 10:30 a.m. in the Columbus library and at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday in the Saluda Library. (article and photos submitted by Joy Sharp)
