Tryon resident’s wish could be granted after 60 yearsDOT takes first steps toward paving Adam Millis Roadby Leah Justice

Tryon resident Howard Greene has been waiting for a road near his home to be paved for a long time – six decades, to be exact.

Greene recently told N.C. De-partment of Transportation (DOT) officials that he has been trying to get Adam Millis Road paved for 60 years. Last year, Greene, who is in his 90s, said a DOT representative gave him the impression that it would be paved within the next year and it is still not paved.

“I’d like to see that done where I can ride on it one time,” Greene said.

DOT officials, the Polk County Board of Commissioners and the public met on Sept. 15 to discuss the state’s 2012 secondary road plan.

DOT engineer Joel Setzer said

the state is currently working on obtaining rights of way for the road paving. Because of unknown rights-of-way issues, DOT officials did not give a timeframe for when the road could be paved. Setzer asked for Greene’s information so the state can advise him of the progress of the work.

Greene said he has sent numer-ous petitions to pave Adam Millis Road, an exit route off Hidden Hill Road in Tryon, over the past several decades.

“The dust in the summer covers everyone’s house,” said Greene.

The gravel road can be ac-cessed from Hidden Hill Road and Horseshoe Curve Road off U.S. 176 in Tryon. Hidden Hill Road resident Mike Kayser also spoke at the DOT meeting saying there are not only about 13 families who use the road, but it gives a second entrance for emergencies to the steep hilltop.

Orselli exhibit opens Sept. 30 in Spartanburg gallery

An exhibit of work by local artist Janet Orselli will open at the Curtis R. Harley art gallery in Spartanburg, S.C., starting Friday, Sept. 30.

An artist talk and reception will be held Oct. 6 from 4:30 - 6: 30 p.m.

The exhibit, entitled “Reclaim-ing the Wheel,” will run until Oct. 28.

The gallery is located at 800 University Way, Spartanburg, S.C. 29303.

For more information con-tact Jane Nodine at [email protected], Michael Dickins at [email protected] or call 864-503-5848.

Agent R.V. Williams executed an “emergency information re-quest” to Cellco Partnership, do-ing business as Verizon Wireless, regarding McGraw’s phone, the motion said. The request sought information on incoming calls, text message activity and text message content, according to the motion.

The motion said “That Special Agent Williams ‘certified’ in all of the ‘Emergency Information Re-quests’ that ‘there is an immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to a person requiring that the information below be provided without waiting for a court order.’”

The motion continues, “That the certification of the Special Agent Williams was an apparent mis-statement of the facts, no apparent risk of immediate death or serious physical injury existed. This was a transparent attempt by the SBI to avoid attempting to lawfully procure the requested items by search warrant. That the state failed to produce any inventory of information received pursuant to these ‘emergency information requests.’”

McGraw also filed an affidavit stating that he was the contract owner of two cell phone numbers and “I had a reasonable expecta-tion of privacy in my subscriber information, cell site location,

incoming and outgoing phone calls, text message activity and text message content. I never gave my permission to procure my afore-described cell phone records….”

The cell phone records the de-fense is asking to be excluded from evidence include those between McCraw and Mary Beth Fisher.

In affidavits submitted by the state in the case, text messages on Feb. 17 between McGraw and Fisher indicated a relationship be-tween McGraw and Fisher.

“While I may not deserve you too. Will you really be there on Sunday for me to call?” McGraw said in a message. Another mes-sage from McGraw to Fisher read, “I know you love me and

I love you! While we share that, your friends exboyfriends all say

New promotional video coming to Landrum’s websiteby Leah Justice

The City of Landrum is cur-rently working on a video for its website centered on the city’s slogan, “There’s more to do in Landrum.”

Landrum City Council dis-cussed last week a video to be placed on the city’s website at www.cityoflandrum.com. The video will focus on the city's beauty and attractions and will be designed to draw more visi-tors.

City administrator Steve Wo-lochowicz said the video will

show a lot of illustrations of the town and the area, with cameos from residents.

The video, which will be ap-proximately three to five minutes long, will cost the city $2,500. The money will come from hospitality tax funds.

Synergy Point, the city’s website providers, are handling the video.

The video will be approxi-mately three to five minutes.

It is not known yet when the video will be complete to be placed on the website.

Lake Lanier honors WiLLiams

EmaiLiNg a picturE to thE tdb?

A few tips…• Lighter and more contrasting subjects and backgrounds will

print better than subjects and backgrounds with similar hues. When possible, keep the background clean and simple, not too cluttered.

• Focus on the people in your shots – zoom in on them so that their expressions can be seen. When possible, show people doing things rather than lined up facing the camera.

• High-quality (100 or 200 dpi) .jpg formats are preferred, be-tween 3 and 6 inches wide.

• When you email the photo, if at all possible, please include in your email the names of all the people in your photo, identi-fied from left to right. Photos without names are less likely to be published.

Thanks for your submissions… see you in the paper!

kick me to the curb!”Other messages from Mc-

Graw said, “Your word is enough for me! Thank you!” and “Good night darling!”

Some of Fisher’s text mes-sages included, “You under-stand what Sunday phone call means…right?”

McGraw’s response said, “Yes. Ma’am!!”

“That means I could call Vanessa and she would con-firm you are NOT together? Because eventually, I will call,” responded Fisher.

Fisher told investigators she met McGraw in December 2010 and did not know Mc-Graw and Mintz were married. Fisher also told investigators she and McGraw’s relationship was not sexual but they talked and texted on a regular basis, according to court records.

Mintz, 53, was killed be-tween the evening of Feb. 18 and the early morning of Feb. 19 at the lodge in the employ-

ees’ quarters, according to court records. Mintz family owned the Saluda Mountain Lodge at the time. Mintz died of a shotgun wound to the face, ac-cording to her death certificate.

Evidence in the case includes a shotgun shell that investiga-tors said matched a shell found in McGraw’s truck, according search warrant records.

McGraw, 44, of Henderson-ville, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder a few days after the murder. He is be-ing held at the N.C. Department of Corrections under no bond.

The motion to suppress evi-dence was filed in Polk County Superior Court on Sept. 23 by McGraw’s attorney, Tony C. Dalton of Brevard. McGraw requested a public defender for his case in July.

Polk County Superior Court begins on Monday, Oct. 4, but it is unclear whether McGraw’s motion will be heard next week. McGraw is on the session’s docket, but not included on the trial list or the motion or the plea lists.

Many communities, par-ents and churches in recent years have reevaluated their choice of Halloween activi-ties. As Christians, we make that very personal choice according to our knowledge of the holiday’s history, our knowledge of the Holy Scriptures and our personal convictions.

I hope the following information will help you decide what is right for you and your family.

About 2,000 years ago in ancient Gaul (what is now Northern France, Ireland and the United Kingdom), Nov. 1 was the Celtic New Year. Historians have writ-ten of the Druids’ practice

of human sacrifice, wor-shipping their gods in oak groves, divination and other occult practices. Beltaine and Samhain are two Druid high days.

Beltaine is worship of Bal, spelled Baal in Hebrew. Baal worship is associated with fire worship. Roman historians said when Roman soldiers were confronted by Druids in battle, they were terrified of Druid pagan practices and that many of the Roman soldiers were riveted in terror. Yes, those were the same fierce sort of soldiers who crucified Jesus Christ.

In the eighth century, Rome had become influ-

enced by the Christian church. Pope Boniface IV proclaimed Nov. 1 as All Saints Day, a day to honor saints and martyrs. All Hal-lows Eve (Holy Evening) was the night before, Oct 31.

It is the opinion of most historians that the church was attempting to evange-lize and redirect the popular pagan practices toward a Christ honoring holiday.

By the 1930s, All Hal-lows Eve, or Halloween, was commonly celebrated in America as a secular com-munity celebration centered on children and parties.

The remaining Halloween customs that originated with occult pagan practices are: spirits of the dead, ghosts and carving pumpkins with scary faces lit by a candle. These carved pumpkins

originally were supposed to ward off evil or those look-ing for a sacrifice.

Costumes can be traced back to Druid practices of dancing around a bonfire wearing masks to scare off evil spirits.

Wiccans still value Oct. 31 as an important religious day. Those practicing witchcraft have been known to attempt to use black cats as a vehicle to house a familiar spirit.

Of course, there is much more historical information available. The best resource I have found on the topic is "The Encyclopedia of Religion."

As Christians, our con-cern should be how we may be true to our faith while using this opportunity to reach out to our children and community in a posi-

Polk Middle School football cheerleaders for 2011-2012

Final 2011 Tryon Gallery Trot Oct. 8 to feature two new art spotsTwo new establishments will

join in the final “Tryon Gallery Trot” for this year on Saturday, Oct. 8 from 5 – 8 p.m.

Bravo MarketPlace joins the Trot this month with a group of local artists on display: Diana Gurri, Bob Neely, Linda Hudgins, Mara and Ford Smith and Jim Shackelford. Bravo MarketPlace and Thompson Landscaping is lo-cated at 83 Palmer Street (behind Stott’s Ford).

The Ferullo Fine Art Stu-dio will hold its grand opening reception during the Trot. Pat Cole-Ferullo and Dom Ferullo welcome everyone to stop in and enjoy a snack, beverage and pe-ruse the new gallery space located at 140 Pacolet St. The Ferullos are now showing watercolors and acrylics by Pat and mixed media

and wood sculpture by Dom.The Upstairs Artspace hosts an

opening reception for its first-ever portrait exhibit, entitled “Lines and Lives of the Face.” An added attraction is a small exhibit, “This is not a portrait,” consisting of 25 drawings of the infamous Osama bin Laden made by local artists from a template by James Esber. The Upstairs reception, which is from 5 to 8 p.m., is preceded by the “Walk and Talk” tour of the art at 4 p.m.

Green River Gallery will fea-ture the work of Charles Harpt during their late hours. Kiveo displays its continuously chang-ing selection of artwork from local talented artists.

Tryon Painters and Sculptors will have a new member’s show that features not only members’

pictures and sculptures but the Claydie’s sculptures as well. Re-freshments will be served.

Vines and Stuff is featuring new work by local wood turner Jim Mellberg, and a collection of local pottery from Tiffany Gipson and Little Mountain Pottery, in-cluding their new redware pieces.

Richard Baker will display four new paintings of the Tryon Toymaker Toys. Treats and apple cider will be served during the Trot in Baker’s studio.

Kathleen’s Gallery will high-light new work by gallery artists and introduce Douglas Cham-berlain’s assemblages, combined architectural salvage with odds and ends of other recycled materi-als to create wall hangings full of texture and color. Textile artists Bobbie Thomas and Kathie Seat-

ters, jewelry artists Monica Jones and Leah Weitzel and recycled plastic artist David Edgar all will display new work for the Trot.

Skyuka Fine Art presents “European Treasures,” a selec-tion of artwork representing years of remarkable finds from local art dealer (via England) John Selleck. Selleck’s surprisingly affordable pieces generally date from the late 19th century to ap-proximately 1930. The opening reception will be during the Trot, and Sellick will be on hand to discuss the work.

Elise was the daughter of the late Tracy and Thelma Jones of South Miami, Fla., and a 1956 graduate of Coral Gables Se-nior High School. Her siblings include a sister, Gloria McDon-ald, and four brothers, Tracy, Willoughby, Arthur and Donald Jones. She was predeceased by a younger brother, Tommy.

Friends and neighbors in Sunny View will remember her as Elise Cox, widow of Bob Cox and the mother of Brian Peters.

en, as well as perform various other projects around the shelter.

The church will accept dona-tions for the rummage sale up until Friday evening, Sept. 30. Donations can be dropped off at the church office, or a pick-up time can be arranged by calling Jessica Holmes at 828-899-6362. Cash donations will also be ac-cepted.

Remember when one drawer of the kitchen cabinet was a re-pository for pieces of string and other re-usable items in addition to the cooking tools?

When I was a boy during the 30s, everyone seemed to have such a drawer. I was always sent to it for almost anything needed that I could fetch.

I would scratch around in the drawer for the right rubber band, nail, screw, nut, button, hose washer, paper clip, etc. Anything no longer needed, but still usable, was put into that drawer instead of the trash can. “Waste not, want not!” came long before the “green thing” of today.

Everything was merely down-graded progressively until it was used up. A dress shirt soon became an “around the house” shirt, then a “yard work” shirt and finally a painting or “work on the car” shirt, before the buttons were removed (and saved!) to make it a cleaning rag.

The toaster and the radio were taken in for repair in those days; now most such things can be replaced with a better model for less money than repairs cost,

even in the rare case that repairs are possible!

It irks me to take a perfectly good scanner or printer to be recycled simply because a driver compatible with the new com-puter operating system is “un-available.”

Fran and I work at recycling. We rinse out soft drink cans and flatten them. We run bottles and jars through the dishwasher before they go into the recycle bin. I flatten nearly all the cardboard boxes we get and stack them with the newspapers and magazines. Our recycle volume is about equal to our trash volume.

We still have two big black bags of trash each month, mostly packaging that cannot be re-cycled.

Nearly everything we buy nowadays has excessive and very durable packaging to prevent (really just discourage) theft in the self-service stores. Small items that would slip easily into a pocket or purse must now be

String savers now recyclepackaged in a tough impenetrable plastic housing as big as a cookie sheet, which for some reason is not recyclable.

I think everything manufac-tured should have built into it the means to recycle it, and that cost should be included in the price. Remember when a kid could walk to town to a movie and

pick up enough drink bottles along the way to pay his ad-mission?

If al l this stuff we have to throw away

had value added by law, then nearly all of it would be recycled. Our roadsides would not be lit-tered and our landfills would not become mountains.

Some really high value items have their packaging removed (and kept for re-use) at checkout. Maybe ALL small items should be handled that way.

Of course, this kind of local packaging would require people to do it and undo it, and add to the cost of doing business. Maybe Mom and Pop stores could then

better compete with the big boxes! Better yet, our mountains of trash would become molehills.

I was discouraged when I read a letter in the Henderson-ville Times-News stating that the writer had observed the blue re-cycle bags being pushed into the same big bins as the trash. Then a column appeared describing how recycles are indeed handled separately and do get re-used.

Naturally, I called friend Joyce Hicks at our county “transfer sta-tion” and she explained to me how Polk County handles trash and recyclables.

She also provided tonnage figures (yes, we recycle TONS of stuff!) that show that we are recycling more each year.

We saved about a third again more glass and plastic this year than last, more than 176 tons of glass and nearly 20 tons of plastic.

Both aluminum and steel cans are up 32 percent, while mixed paper is up 27 percent from last year. Joyce attributes this improvement to the new mobile recycling pick-up. I am happy that we are re-using more and burying less.

subscribers know!PAC hike Sept. 29 to visit Bent Creek

Experimental Station in Pisgah Forest The first of Pacolet Area Con-

servancy’s (PAC’s) five hikes this fall will be Friday, Sept. 30. Hik-ers will enjoy a six-mile hike at Bent Creek Experimental Station in Pisgah National Forest.

PAC Land Protection Special-ist Pam Torlina will lead hikers on the Hardtimes Loop in the northern area of Bent Creek. The hike is easy to moderate and begins by following the course of Bent Creek. After crossing the creek, the trail ascends and inter-sects with the Mountains-to-Sea Trail for a short while and briefly parallels the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Eventually, hikers reach and enter the North Carolina Arbo-retum through the back fence. Hikers follow the Old Mill Trail back to the Bent Creek Trail and out of the Arboretum. This trail also offers distant views of the Biltmore Estate and the Asheville skyline.

Located in Pisgah National Forest, Bent Creek Experimental Forest became an experimental site for forest management in the 1920s. The nearly 6,000 acre Experimental Forest is the oldest federal experimental forest in the east. It was established to conduct research on silvicultural prac-

tices, initially to experiment with ways to rehabilitate cutover and abused lands, but also with the intention to find ways to promote sustainable forestry and provide a site for field demonstrations of forest management practices.

Bent Creek Experimental Forest houses the headquarters and a research laboratory for the care of Southern Appalachian hardwoods, the North Carolina Arboretum and Lake Powhatan Recreation Area.

The Experimental Station has been used for many studies, including oak ecosystem restora-tion, hardwood regeneration, fire ecology, growth and yield, forest stand dynamics, invasive plant species, American chestnut resto-ration, wildlife response to forest management practices and more.

It continues to conduct re-search on current issues that threaten or enhance the health and productivity of forests.

Though research is the prima-ry purpose of Bent Creek Experi-mental Forest, it also functions as a recreational facility, offering trails for hiking, equestrian use and mountain biking, as well as swimming and camping (at Lake Powhatan Recreation Area).

If you are interested in attend-ing the PAC hike at Bent Creek Experimental Station, please con-tact the PAC office to sign up by phone at 828-859-5060 or email at [email protected].

Hikers should wear appropri-ate clothing and footwear; bring a bag lunch and/or snack and plenty of water. Hikers are asked to bring any personal medication that they may require.

In case of inclement weather, please contact the PAC office by 8:15 a.m. on the day of the hike to see if the hike will take place.

Hikers will meet at the Co-lumbus Bi-Lo at 8:30 a.m. to start the approximately 45-minute drive to Bent Creek Experimental Station.

If you cannot make this hike but would like to attend other hikes, please visit PAC’s web-site at www.pacolet.org or visit PACs Facebook page, “Pacolet Conservancy,” for information on upcoming hikes.

The next hike is scheduled for Oct. 14 at Montreat, where PAC Land Protection Specialist Torlina will lead hikers to Look-out Rock.
