The proposed 130 Landfill in northern CaldwellCounty will meet and, in many cases, exceed stateand federal requirements to protect groundwater.130 Landfill will be a state-of-the-art, highly-engi-neered, and environmentally-friendly waste man-agement facility, planned to provide a steady sourceof revenue to Caldwell County in the form of hostfees and taxes, to create good paying jobs, and togenerate new business opportunities for local con-tractors and service providers.

“130 Landfill is designed to meet or exceed stateand federal requirements. In many cases, the designfar exceeds these requirements,” said Ernest Kauf-mann, president of Green Group Holdings, LLC.“For example, 130 Landfill will install more ground-water monitoring wells around the facility than reg-ulations require. Our stormwater ponds can handletwo back-to-back 100-year storm events, far exceed-ing the standard requirement to handle one 25-yearstorm event.”

“Even with state-of-the-art engineering, the ideaof a landfill can be unsettling and people often have

questions about protecting the environment. I’veseen these reactions time and again and then I’veseen relief wash over communities when they real-ize that our projects do indeed protect the environ-ment and generate local revenue and economicactivity,” said Kaufmann.

130 Landfill will feature multiple layers ofgroundwater protection including a compacted clayliner, a 60-mil HDPE liner, a comprehensive ground-water monitoring system, and two extensivedrainage systems to separately manage uncontami-nated rainwater on the site and liquids within thelandfill 24 hours a day.

The engineered capacity of the leachate manage-ment system (“leachate” is a term used to describeliquid that comes in contact with waste) is based ongood engineering practice and computer modeling.The system accounts for the maximum amount ofwater possible over the lifetime of the facility plusadditional reserve capacity. Calculations are basedon historical rainfall data for Caldwell County.

“By design, liquid will not sit on the landfill’s

liner. Instead, rainwater and liquid that come incontact with waste in the landfill will be routed tosumps for removal 24 hours a day,” said Kaufmann.“The engineered system for managing all liquids inthe 130 Landfill, including rainwater that comes incontact with waste, is a ‘closed system’ that willcontain liquids within the landfill. All rainwater thatcomes in contact with waste is contained within thisclosed system and cannot ‘run off’ to streams orcreeks,” he said.

Collected liquid will be transported off-site fortreatment at a State-approved facility. Groundwatermonitoring is continuous during the active life ofthe facility (estimated at 50 years) and during theclosure and post-closure period for at least 30 moreyears.

As required by state regulation, other environ-mental protections at 130 Landfill will include cov-ering waste completely every day, which reducesodor, controls litter, insects and rodents, and pro-tects public health. Additionally, 130 Landfill will

Texas Departmentof Public Safety troopers at the scene believe that the westbound semi lost control on a slick portion of theroad, crossing the center stripe and striking the eastbound Ford Explorer driven by Owens. Owens’ wifewas a passenger in the Explorer at the time of the crash, and was transported by ambulance to SetonKyle, where she was treated for what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries.

By Kathi Bliss Editor/POST-REGISTER

Despite a favorable recommendation from MayorLew White and concerns about property negotiationswith city officials, the Lockhart City Council voted onTuesday to block a zoning change that would allowthe construction of a light-industrial factory and ware-house on Blackjack Street (FM 20E).

The change, subject to a public hearing duringTuesday’s regular meeting of the Lockhart City Coun-cil, would have been necessary for Herbal Solutions tobuild their facility on the 13-acre tract near the Cald-well County Jail, and bordered by Valdez Street on thewest.

Although a report from the Planning and ZoningCommission suggested that the business, whichprocesses and sells herbs and spices for wholesale dis-tribution for companies such as Sleepytime Teas,would be a “good fit” for Lockhart, the Commissionsuggested that the Lockhart Industrial Park would be

Each week leading upto Evening With the Au-thors, the Post-Registerwill share biographicaland background informa-tion about the featuredauthors. This week’sspotlighted participantsare Mark Pryor and BobAlexander.

Mark PryorMark Pryor is a former

newspaper reporter fromEngland, and now an as-sistant district attorneywith the Travis CountyDistrict Attorney’s Office,

in Austin, Texas. He is thecreator of the nationally-recognized true-crimeblog D.A. Confidential.He has appeared on CBSNews’s 48 Hours andDiscovery Channel’s Dis-covery ID: Cold Blood. “The Bookseller” is hisfirst mystery novel andupon release was LibraryJournal’s Debut of theMonth with a starred re-view. RT Book Reviewscalled it “a fantasticdebut!” and gave it four-and-one-half stars,and  Oprah.com  listed itas an “unputdownablemystery. “It was releasedonly last October, but hasalready been republishedin seven countries, andsix different languages.

His second in theHugo Marston mysteryseries, “The Crypt Thief,”was released in May ofthis year. It became an in-stant regional bestsellerand Booklist declared,“The Hugo Marston se-ries now belongs onevery espionage fan’swatch list.” Mark is also the author ofthe true crime book, “AsShe Lay Sleeping,” whichis the account of a “cold”murder case he prose-cuted. Published in Janu-ary 2013, Publisher’sWeekly gave it a starredreview and called it“compelling” and “rivet-ing.”

“Being published hasbeen a whirlwind thispast year, as exciting andfun as I imagined itwould be,” he said re-cently. “I feel very fortu-

nate to be in this position,frankly, and it looks likeI’ll be continuing theHugo Marston series overthe next few years. I justfinished the third book,called ‘The Blood Prom-ise,’ which will be re-leased around Christmas.And I’m talking with myeditor about anotherthree-book contract tokeep Hugo alive and in-vestigating. If that hap-pens, I have carte blancheto move him around Eu-rope, so expect to see himexploring places likeBarcelona and London.”

While keeping theMarston series fresh, hesaid he also hopes to findtime to write a stand-alone mystery set inTexas.

“My job as an ADAprovides plenty of real-life stories to adapt, eventhough some are too oddto be credible as fiction!”he said. “If things con-tinue to go well with thewriting, I may be able toquit working and writefull time, which would bemy dream come true. Asthings stand, though, Ihave a fascinating day-time job and am publish-

ing my mystery novels,so I have no complaints!”

Bob AlexanderBob Alexander is one

of the most renowned his-torians of the Old West. Anative Texan and veteranlawman, Alexander re-tired as a special agentwith the US Treasury De-partment and began asecond career as an au-thor.

The National Out-law/Lawman HistoryAssociation honoredAlexander in 2004 with itsLiterary Award for Out-standing Contributions toWestern Historical Writ-ing.

He also won the 2007Outstanding Book onOutlaw/Lawman His-tory award. The honor,presented at the annualconvention of the West-ern Outlaw/LawmanHistory Association(WOLA) in Cheyenne,Wyo., was for Alexan-der’s book “Desert Des-peradoes.”

Well known for hislively writing style andprodigious research,Alexander is the author ofa dozen highly acclaimed

and numerous articles forOutlaw/Lawman andWestern publications. Hislatest published researcheffort culminated in thejust released Riding Lu-cifer’s Line RangerDeaths Along the Texas-Mexico Border.

Sandwiched betweenpublic speaking engage-ments throughout theSouthwest, he is awaitingpublication of his latestnonfiction effort, an an-thology Bad Company anBurnt Powder: HistoricSix-Gun Tales of the OldSouthwest.

In a nutshell, his mostsatisfying reward comesnot from seeing a book orarticle in print, but inmeeting and visiting withthose folks who un-selfishly lend that crucialhelping hand and thosefolks still so keenly inter-ested in the true side ofthe Old West. He is for-ever in debt to helpmatesand audiences. Andpleasantly so!

The historic Dr. Eu-gene Clark Library con-tinues its Evenings withthe Songwriter serieswith Texas singer-song-writer Butch Morgan, onTuesday, Sept. 24, at 7p.m. Hosted by FletcherClark, the Library seriesoccurs on the last Tues-day of each month, and isnow in its third season.Focusing on songwritingas a literary form, guestspresent their songs anddiscuss them and their ca-reers from the perspectiveof their art and craft. TheEvenings are available tothe public free of charge

Based in Devine,Claude “Butch” Morgan

is a triple threat on theTexas music scene: he is asongwriter, storyteller,and guitarist who is con-stantly pushing his limitsas a performer. He honedhis chops as a guitarplayer in various USObands while in the mili-tary during Vietnam, thencame home to the San An-tonio area and becameknown across Texas forhis lead guitar skills andhis energetic performancestyle.

He found his song-writer groove at The Ker-rville Folk Festival andwas a finalist for NewFolk in 2005 and 2008,then becoming a featured

main stage performer. Awinner of the WildflowerPerforming Songwriterscontest in 2004 and a“Singer/Songwriter ofthe Year” nominee at theTexas Music Awards in2012, Morgan continuesto grab audiences withhis songwriting and sto-rytelling, punctuated bythe taste and tone of aworld class guitarist. Heis just returning from awell-received appearanceat Michael Hearne’s 11thAnnual Big Barn DanceMusic Festival in Taos,N.M.

Morgan’s 2013 album,Dry, is an extremely per-sonal look into his life

and history. Recorded livein the studio at Moon-house Studio in Austinwith co-producer ChrisGage, it is a bare bonesalbum befitting its title,garnering both critical ac-claim and enthusiastic fanreception.

Songwriting legendButch Hancock says ofMorgan “...his songs re-flect all this and all thelove he has for the hu-mane side of the humansojourn... Listen up andlisten up good!”

“That about sums itup,” said Clark. “Hang-ing with Butch Morgan atthe Ballad Tree and songcircles of Kerrville has

given me ample opportu-nity to appreciate his skillas a musician and as asongwriter. I look for-ward to exploring thecomplex creative machinelurking behind the simplepersona.”

Lockhart’s Dr. EugeneClark Library is the oldestcontinually operating li-brary building in Texas.Clark credits the librarylyceum’s acoustics andambiance for the appealof the Evenings series,“…that, and the fact thatfolks have on their librarymanners and are reallylistening.”

The Evenings format isloosely derived from the

cable TV program Insidethe Actor’s Studio: song-writers share their songsand discuss specificsongs, career experiencesand milestones, influ-ences, background,methodology, and soforth.

Clinton V. Copeland

Clinton, or “Chug” as he was knownby, was born on March 2, 1922, to PearlLee (Bock) Copeland and Chester JohnCopeland in Brookshire, WallerCounty, Texas. The family, consisting ofMr. and Mrs. Copeland, Chug, andyounger brother Conrad, moved toLockhart when Chug was a small boy,eventually living at 341 Concho St. Thefamily attended Lockhart’s FirstMethodist Church. Chug attendedschools in Lockhart, and played foot-ball at Lockhart High School, where hewas team co-captain with Ralph Terryhis senior year. After graduating in1939 he served as the football teammanager for a year.

Chug enlisted in the Army AirForces on May 21, 1942. His basic train-ing was at San Antonio’s Kelly Fieldand advanced training at EllingtonField near Houston. He graduated withhis bombardier’s wings and the rank ofsecond lieutenant on May 13, 1943, atChildress Army Airfield. According tothe Post-Register column entitled “AxisBusters,” Chug then made a short visit

home. Further training followed at airbases at Salt Lake City, and in Wash-ington and Illinois. He was sent over-seas in October of 1943.

He was assigned to 322nd Bombard-ment Squadron, 91st BombardmentGroup, Eighth Air Force. His groupwas one of the first to operate the B-17heavy bomber in Europe. The “RaggedIrregulars” as the 91st dubbed itself,would suffer more losses than anyother U.S. heavy bomb group in WorldWar II.

The Boeing B-17 had been dubbedthe “Flying Fortress” because of its pre-sumed impregnability to enemy fight-ers due to the many heavy machineguns bristling from it. In “box” forma-tions with other bombers it wasthought that the aircraft would be morethan a match for any enemy daring toattack it. It proved to be anything but,and early missions showed just howvulnerable any bomber was to Ger-many’s deadly fighters such as the Bf109 and the FW190. German anti-air-craft artillery (“flak”) was the mostdangerous weapon encountered, andwould continue to be throughout thewar. But until the long range P-51 Mus-tang was introduced as the main escortfighter for American bomber forma-tions, German pilots proved horriblyefficient at shooting down bombers.American P-38s and P-47s were greatfighters, but even with drop tanks oftendid not have the range to protect thebig bombers all the way to and fromthe intended target.

Bomber crews were expected to fly25 missions (later, 30) before being re-lieved of combat duty. The averagelifespan of a B-17 crew of ten men inthe early part of the World War IIbombing campaign in Europe was SIXmissions.

Second Lieutenant ClintonCopeland arrived at RAF Bassing-bourn, airfield and headquarters of the322nd on Oct. 23, 1943. Additional crewtraining and the typically bad weatherover England and the Continent meant

the first mission he flew was not untilNov. 7, 1943. Engine trouble forced hisbomber to turn back from an attack ona railroad marshalling yard at Wesel,Germany.

On Nov. 11, another bombing mis-sion to Wesel, Germany was calledback because of bad weather.

A Nov. 13, 1944, raid on the subma-rine pens at Bremen in Northern Ger-many was aborted two hours into themission after the bombing groupsfailed to assemble (presumably becauseof bad weather).

On Nov. 16, Chug’s squadron waspart of a mission to bomb a German op-erated molybdenum mine near Knabenin occupied Norway. The target wasnever located, again presumably be-cause of the lack of visibility. Thebomber formations were attacked byGerman fighters, but with no loss to thesquadron.

Nov. 30 saw the 322nd taking part ina bombing raid on aero-engine castingworks in Solingen, Germany. The mis-sion was abandoned after three hoursin the air because of bad weather.

On Dec. 1, 1943, the squadron waspart of a raid on chemical works of I.G.FarbenIndustrie AG (the company thatproduced the poison gas Zyclon B usedto exterminate millions of Jews andothers) at Ludwigshafen, Germany.Here, lack of fighter coverage at a criti-cal juncture led to trouble. The tran-scribed daily report succinctly tellswhat happens:

Time:  Take Off 0755. Target 1202. Re-turn 1434.

This was origi-nally printed in Aprilof ‘99. Enjoy!

Surely I’m dream-ing when I thinkabout such things!But, if that’s the casethen I declare I mustwake up before thedreams turn intonightmares! But, there are streets in ourgreat “small” town during certainhours of the day when the traffic isquite terrible. Idling the motor andwaiting for a turn to get on the high-way is getting to be very frustratingand gas wasting. Highway 20, fromHwy 183 on down a ways westward,has become an impossible situation. Tolurch forward and add to the already inprogress traffic problem is a dare-devil’s existence. Cars are coming fromboth directions at questionable speeds.

When I think back to those child-hood days I know of the small miraclesthat took place on the roads at thattime. Highways were two-laned andcountry roads were very narrow andmostly gravel. My driving began veryearly due to Mom’s being more patientthan Job. Mostly, we drove those gravelroads and slowed down to a snail’s

pace when we met a car. The car’s pres-ence became known because of theswelling dust we could see from afar.Driving the speed limit was easy be-cause passing was very stressful. Ohyes, Dad could do it easily but beingjust a kid it wasn’t as easy as he couldmake it appear.

I was already half grown when myparents thought it was time for me toget a driver’s license. After all, I hadbeen driving for a number of years, butthe law wasn’t as needed as it is intoday’s time. Soooo, there I was, head-ing for the courthouse in Cooke Countyand the Driver’s License Bureau. Pass-ing the written test was a snap and itgave me a great feeling about the skillof driving. It was a different story whenit became time to do the actual drivingtest. The expectancy was for an olderhighway patrolman to ride in the car’sseat next to me. We knew him but, hewasn’t the one who got in beside me inthe car. Oh mercy! Can I even admitthis? That patrolman was so young andhe was the handsomest man I’d seenthis side of Hollywood. He glancedover at me with glistening brown eyesand smiled. He gently asked, “Youready?” My voice box went ka-flooeyas my face turned red!

His directions were easy to follow.The parallel parking was a snap. Per-haps intimidation had left me and I be-came accustomed to his sitting therebeside me. Ease and comfort returnedto my being and I felt that I’d passedthe driving part as easily as I had donethe written test. But, not sooooo....! Hissmile had disappeared from his faceand he peered at me declaring that Ihad failed the test! (Why, for heaven’ssake surged through my head, my facemust have been the color of a red sun-set when he declared, I had not madeone hand signal!) Just in case you youn-guns don’t know, cars in those long agodays didn’t have turning signals. Wehad to learn to give hand signals outthe driver’s window with our arms nomatter what the weather was doing.And no, I didn’t fail to make the signalsjust to see that handsome dude again!Funny, the memory of getting the ac-tual driving license has disappeared to-tally.

Although the traffic these days isatrocious and fierce I still enjoy goingplaces.

During a brief meeting of the Caldwell CountyCommissioners Court on Monday, the County agreedto enter a contract with the City of Lockhart to paveseveral roads in the Lockhart area.

The request, spurred by a growing need within theCity of Lockhart to pave certain streets, requires Lock-hart to provide the material, including liquid asphaltand coating materials, and to prepare the roads forpaving.

Unit Road Supervisor Dwight Jeffrey said that itwould take between 15 and 21 days to complete thepaving, and that his crews should be ready to start theprojects within the next two weeks, after they com-plete projects they are currently working on inside thecounty. That timeframe jells with Lockhart’s plans, asCity Manager Vance Rodgers said it would take abouttwo weeks to prepare the road for paving.

Because of the materials the county uses, pavingcan only be done during specific times of the year, andduring particular weather patterns. Jeffrey said“paving season” would be ending in late Septemberor early October, depending on the weather, and theCommissioners agreed that if the projects were notcompleted during this year’s paving season, theywould be added to next year’s schedule.

Roads intended for paving include Maple Street,Patton Lane, Old Kelley Road and Horseshoe Road,amassing around 10 miles total of roadway to bepaved.

In other business, the Court continued discussingmassive renovations that will be taking place at theLuling Annex, and approved the payment of up to$4,500 for review and approval of those renovationsthrough the Texas Department of Licensing registra-tion.

Because the project itself will cost more than$50,000, the county is required to submit plans to theState regarding the work being done to ensure ADA(Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance andother inspection requirements.

The cost, Commissioner Buchholtz said, must bepaid because the approval by the State must be ob-tained for the project to move forward.

Asked by other Commissioners, Buchholtz said hedoes not expect any other additional fees to be addedto the project, but admitted that he has not been con-tacted by the City of Luling with information as towhether their inspection fees will be waived.

In brief news:County resident Deborah Bissonnet approached

the Commissioners demanding answers as to whenthe Court was aware that Green Group Holdings,LLC, was planning to build a landfill in rural Cald-

well County. Because the Court cannot engage in dis-cussion of items not on the agenda, they were unableto answer her question.

They approved a maintenance agreement in theamount of $1,750 for the tower clock in the CaldwellCounty Courthouse.

They agreed a grant program for Combined Com-munity Action, Inc., to help fund the Texans FeedingTexans Home-Delivered Meal Program (Meals onWheels).

The County received several sealed bids for pavingmaterials, fuel and lubricants. The Commissionersopened those bids and have instructed Jeffrey andCounty Auditor Larry Roberson to return to the Courtwith a recommendation.

The Caldwell County Commissioners Court meetson the second, third and fourth Monday of eachmonth at 9 a.m. in the Conference and Training Roomat the LW Scott Annex, 1403 Blackjack St. (FM 20E) inLockhart. The meetings are open to the public and arewebcast at www.co.caldwell.tx.us.

a more appropriate loca-tion for the facility.

That causes a problem,however, according to thefactory representative, be-cause no properties in theIndustrial Park suits theirneeds.

“Our objection to the In-dustrial Park is the price,”said Liberthad Robles,who represents the family-owned operation. “We area small company, but weare foreseeing growth inthe future.”

She had hoped thatLockhart would be a partof that growth, adding to

their operations in San An-tonio and Mexico City.

However, neighborsturned out in force, bothduring the council meetingand during a recent meet-ing of the Planning andZoning Commission, to ex-press concerns about thetraffic, noise and pollutionthat might be brought tothe area as a result of thefacility.

Robles assured thecouncil that the produc-tion, at the start, wouldtake place during businesshours, from 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.and that large truck traffic

would be at a minimum,possibly as few as three tofive trucks a month.

Further, she said, mostof the outgoing shippingwould be through FederalExpress or UPS, or othersuch freight couriers.

Because of the neigh-borhood’s concerns, andthe fact that City PlannerDan Gibson said the zon-ing change would not be inline with the future landuse plan for the area, thePlanning and ZoningCommission recom-mended that the councildeny the request for thezoning change. They rec-ommended instead thatthe facility be located in theIndustrial Park.

In the end, the councilvoted to uphold the Com-mission’s recommendationnot to grant the zoning

change, with instructionsto City Staff to work harderwith Robles and her com-pany in an effort to negoti-ate a solution that wouldallow the company tobuild a facility in town.

White, standing againstthe rest of the council, saidhe felt the company de-served the support of thecouncil and voted in favorof allowing the zoningchange.

In other business, thecouncil considered the ideaof allowing commercialbusinesses to participate inthe city’s level billing plan,which allows customers topay the same amount fortheir electric bill eachmonth, based on averageusage over a year.

The plan, initially put inplace to assist those onfixed incomes to manage

their budgets, calls for theElectric Fund to “front” thecost for power in somecases, particularly in thesummer months whenpower bills are higher, andallows customers to makeup that difference duringthe winter months, whenbilling is lower.

Finance Director JeffHinson explained that al-lowing businesses to par-ticipate in the level billingprogram could potentiallycreate a cash flow problemfor the City, because com-mercial power bills are tra-ditionally so much higherthan residential bills, andbecause pains are taken bythe Electric Departmentnot to disconnect busi-nesses for non-paymentand instead to work withthem to bring their ac-counts current when they

become delinquent. The council voted to

leave the program as itstands, without allowingbusinesses to participate.

In brief news:The council approved thebylaws for Keep LockhartBeautiful, and approved aseven-member governingboard for the organization.

The city committed tothe Texas Department ofTransportation to makedrainage improvements onHighway 183 South, be-tween Blackjack Street andthe Lockhart MunicipalAirport.

The Lockhart CityCouncil meets on the firstand third Tuesday of eachmonth at 7:30 p.m. in theGlosserman ConferenceRoom at Lockhart CityHall.

With only five items topurchase, I ran into a bigstore in the “big” town Ihappened to be in. Hur-riedly, I picked out acake, got names andhearts drawn on, grabbeda bag of chips, looked forbread, went on to the delifor a roasted chicken, cir-cled the store again forbread, asked directions tothe ice cream and neverfound the bread aisle.Sometimes bigger isn’talways better.

Some of us“Whizzerville, Texas,”folks consider the townof Lockhart plenty big ifwe need something wecan’t get in the country.To some, McMahan is bigenough. There’s a store,gas station, two restau-rants and two churches, agood size communitycenter and spacious well-equipped fire depart-ment. For travelers, thereis a big RV park with cab-ins by the not-so-big rightnow lake.

Events in McMahanare a big thing, especially

when it comes to rallyingsupport for deserving en-tities. The McMahan Vol-unteer Fire Departmenthas been putting on a bigbarbeque and auctionfundraiser for years. TheMcMahan CommunityWomen’s Club also hostsdinners to provide ameeting place for all. Notonly do these activitiessupport the organiza-tions, they bring folks to-gether, strengtheningfriendships and makingnew acquaintances.

This Saturday, Sept.21, is one of our favoriteget-togethers. TheMcMahan CommunityWomen’s Club, with thehelp of some really greatmen-cooks, hosts a morn-ing breakfast. From 7:30 -9:30 a.m., come to theCommunity Center(Clubhouse) for all-you-can-eat pancakes, eggscooked to order, sausage,coffee, milk, juice for $5.The Clubhouse is at 6022FM 713, McMahan,Texas, just east of thecrossroad with FM 86.

The first Saturday inOctober ever since the1970s has been the dateof the McMahan Volun-teer Fire Department Bar-beque and Auction. Thisevent has grown andmoved to the large firedepartment building onFM 3158 (the Tilmonroad), right off of FM 713.We’re looking forward toa big turnout, supportand appreciation for ournecessary and capablefire department. Thenumber of active fire

fighters is not big, butthey are certainly dedi-cated and ready to aidthe community in a bigway.

Note: The normal busi-ness meeting for theMVFD will not be held onSept. 19, 2013.

Some of us love livingin small communitieswith big open spaces. Weare surely blessed in a bigway.

CCOPELANDOPELANDCONTINUED FROM PAGE 4A

It was during this periodof time that our group suf-fered its losses (5 A/CM.I.A.) also 4 A/C landingelsewhere in England.

Aircraft #794, with 2ndLieutenant Clinton V.Copeland, bombardier,was one of the five air-craft “missing in action.”

It was his sixth mis-sion.

On Dec. 11, 1943, themilitary informed Mr.

and Mrs. Copeland thattheir son was missing inaction. Shortly afterward,Les Duggan, one ofChug’s best friends in theAir Force (they met whilein training at Walla Walla,Washington) wrote a let-ter to the Copeland fam-ily that offered some hopethat Chug had survived.Although not part of theDec. 1, mission, Leswrote:

Their plane was seen tobe going down over enemyterritory with one engineout, but they seemed to beunder control. Last seen,they were going down evi-dently heading for cloudcover. There were enemyfighters in the area, but nochutes were seen coming outof the plane. (unreadable)evidently intended to try tokeep the crew and plane to-gether. Naturally, I would-

n’t know what happenedafter that and I don’t wantto raise any false hopes. It’sentirely possible that theymay have all bailed out oreven landed in enemy terri-tory.

In January of 1945Chug was posthumouslyawarded the PurpleHeart, although the Post-Register’s story of Feb. 8,1945, seemed to indicatethat his family still held

Staring down the barrel of the start of Districtplay next week, the Lions picked up momentumafter their nailbiter victory over Crockett on Sept.4by delivering an iron-fisted blow to the CedarCreek Eagles last Friday night. In a game that sawevery uninjured member of the Varsity lineup getplaying time, the Lions earned a crushing 64-13victory.

To start the night, the Lions made an 80-yarddrive that ended with Curtis Hawkins finding theend zone on a one-yard charge up the middle. Jor-don Johnson followed up Hawkins’ touchdownwith a good kick, putting the Lions ahead 7-0.

The Lions’ next possession looked like déjà vu,as Lockhart once again tramped more than 80yards up the field and Hawkins found the endzone, with Eagle defenders in tow. Another solidkick from Johnson put the Lions up 14-0 and closedthe first quarter.

Early moments of the second quarter looked likeessentially the same scene on “repeat,” withHawkins scoring twice more, and Johnson makinggood on one more kick.

With five minutes left in the half, the Eagles putthemselves into scoring position for the first timein the game. However, as Cedar Creek moveddeeper into Lockhart territory, Victor Sanchezplucked an interception and saved the score.

On the next play, however, a fumble cost theLions a turnover and gave Cedar Creek the ball on

their own 2-yard line. Providing what was

one of few moments oftrue tension, rather thanvictorious excitement,the Lions were able tohold the line as the Ea-gles struggled for theirfirst score.

Instead, the Lionsslipped past CedarCreek’s blockers, makinga tackle in the end zoneand putting a safety onthe board.

Before the end of thehalf, Oscar Diaz steppedinto the scoring action,putting the first of threetouchdowns of his ownon the board.

An exhilarated Lionsquad left the field forhalftime on the top endof a 36-0 score.

A pep talk deliveredby Cedar Creek CoachDan Hernandez in thelocker room was appar-ently effective, as the Eagles came charging outafter the half, finally putting their first points onthe board after only a few minutes of play.

The Lions answered right back, though, with abig kick return fromsophomore DJ Ellison,which put the Lions intoCedar Creek territory,and a 38-yard scamperfrom Diaz for his secondtouchdown of the night.

And then he made histhird, while Cedar Creekseemed to have no an-swer for the Lions’ of-fense, and no poweragainst the defense.

Early in the fourthquarter, the Lions inter-rupted another potentialscoring drive with an in-terception, this time asEllison snagged the ballto put the Lions into scor-ing position once again.

Marcus Johnson tookhis turn in the end zoneon an 18-yard run.

Finally, the Eagleswere able to put togethera second successful scor-ing drive, but missed anattempt at a two-pointconversion, and theLions answered back onemore time, when TimSedwick charged off on a29-yard sprint for theLions’ final touchdown.

Johnson put up onemore kick, and the Lionsburned down the clockfor a 64-13 win.

Eighth Grade FootballThe Eighth Grade “A”

Football Team began it’s2013 season at Seguin Briesemeister last Tues-day. The Lions scored firston a 9-yard run by DevinHester in the first quarter.Julian Ramirez’ extrapoint attempt was goodon the hold by LoganBrown.

“In an effort to developkickers for our highschool teams, our Districthas voted to count kicksas two points and playsfrom scrimmage after atouchdown will onlycount as one point,”Coach Glenn Rotzler ex-plained.

Therefore, Ramirez’kick made the score 8-0,Lockhart. Briesemeisteranswered early in the sec-ond quarter with a scoreon a long run by theirquarterback. Their PATwas good, tying the scoreat 8-8.

Briesemeister’s quar-terback scored again onanother long run in the

second quarter and theLions found themselvestrailing 8-16 at the inter-mission.

With 3:14 remaining inthe game, Devin Hesterscored on a 15-yard runand Ramirez’ kick tiedthe game at 16-16.

The Lions threatenedlate, but ran out of timewith the ball inside theBriesemeister 5-yard line.

“We felt like the kidsdid a good job of puttingthemselves in position towin the game. We did apretty good job of movingdown the field in the lasttwo minutes even thoughwe haven’t had a chanceto practice clock manage-ment yet,” Rotzler said.“We also had a discrep-ancy from the officials onthe number of timeoutswe had left. They origi-nally told us we were out,then said we had one left.When we tried to calltimeout with two secondsleft, to attempt a fieldgoal, the officials againsaid we were out of time-

outs. Devin Hester, San-tos Garcia and GabrielMcVea each had an inter-ception for the Lions De-fense. These guys lost tothe same group by two

touchdowns last year, so Ithink we are headed inthe right direction.”

The Lions faced SanMarcos Goodnight onTuesday night in Lock-

LLIONION CCOUNTRYOUNTRY HHIGHLIGHTSIGHLIGHTS

Proposition Number 1 (HJR 62)

HJR 62 proposes a constitu-tional amendment to authorize the legislature to provide by statute for an exemption from ad valorem taxation of all or part of the market value of the residence homestead of the surviving spouse of a mem-ber of the United States armed services who is killed in ac-tion, as long as the surviving spouse has not remarried. An eligible spouse who later quali-fies a different property as the surviving spouse’s residence homestead could be authorized by statute to receive an exemp-tion from ad valorem taxation in the same amount received for the first qualifying home-stead during the last year in which the surviving spouse re-ceived the exemption.

The proposed amendment would appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amendment authorizing the legislature to provide for an ex-emption from ad valorem taxa-tion of all or part of the market value of the residence home-stead of the surviving spouse of a member of the armed ser-vices of the United States who is killed in action.”

Proposition Number 2 (HJR 79)

HJR 79 proposes a constitu-tional amendment to repeal the constitutional provision re-quiring the creation of a State Medical Education Board and a State Medical Educa-tion Fund, neither of which is in operation. No new loans have been made from the fund by the board in more than 25 years, and the board currently has no appointees and receives no program funding.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment eliminating an obsolete requirement for a State Medi-cal Education Board and a State Medical Education Fund, neither of which is operation-al.”

Proposition Number 3 (HJR 133)

HJR 133 would authorize local political subdivisions to extend the length of time that aircraft

parts could remain temporar-ily in this state before being subject to ad valorem taxation. Under current law, merchan-dise, wares, and goods (includ-ing aircraft parts) may remain in this state temporarily for up to 175 days before being sub-ject to ad valorem taxation; the proposed amendment would permit taxing entities to extend the exemption up to 730 days after the date that a person ac-quired or imported aircraft parts in the state.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment to authorize a political subdivision of this state to ex-tend the number of days that aircraft parts that are exempt from ad valorem taxation due to their location in this state for a temporary period may be lo-cated in this state for purposes of qualifying for the tax ex-emption.”

Proposition Number 4 (HJR 24)

HJR 24 proposes a constitu-tional amendment that would allow the legislature to provide for an exemption from ad va-lorem taxation of part of the market value of the residence homestead of a partially dis-abled veteran or the surviving spouse of a partially disabled veteran if the residence home-stead was donated to the dis-abled veteran at no cost to the veteran by a charitable organi-zation.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment authorizing the legisla-ture to provide for an exemp-tion from ad valorem taxation of part of the market value of the residence homestead of a partially disabled veteran or the surviving spouse of a par-tially disabled veteran if the residence homestead was do-nated to the disabled veteran by a charitable organization.”

Proposition Number 5 (SJR 18)

SJR 18 would amend the defi-nition of “reverse mortgage” to authorize the making of re-verse mortgage loans for the purchase of homestead prop-erty in addition to the current

legal uses of those loans, and would give lenders recourse against borrowers who fail to timely occupy the homestead properties purchased with such loans. SJR 18 would also add to the definition of “reverse mortgage” an extension of credit that is not closed before the 12th day after the lender provides to the prospective borrower a written notice sum-marizing risks and conditions of a reverse mortgage. The language of the required notice is prescribed in the resolution.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment to authorize the making of a reverse mortgage loan for the purchase of homestead property and to amend lender disclosures and other require-ments in connection with a re-verse mortgage loan.”

Proposition Number 6 (SJR 1)

SJR 1 would create the State Water Implementation Fund as a special fund inside the state treasury and outside the Gener-al Revenue Fund. Money in the fund would be administered by the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) and would be used to implement the state water plan, as adopted by gen-eral law, by TWDB.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment providing for the creation of the State Water Implemen-tation Fund for Texas and the State Water Implementation Revenue Fund for Texas to as-sist in the financing of priority projects in the state water plan to ensure the availability of ad-equate water resources.”

Proposition Number 7 (HJR 87)

HJR 87 proposes a constitu-tional amendment to allow home-rule municipalities to adopt charter provisions autho-rizing the filling of vacancies in the governing body by ap-pointment, but only when the remainder of the vacant term is less than 12 months. Under current law, municipal voters may adopt terms of office for municipal officers longer than two years, but upon approv-ing longer terms of office, any resulting vacancies in office must be filled by special elec-tion. The proposed amend-ment would provide an option

for home-rule municipalities to fill short-term vacancies through appointment.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment authorizing a home-rule municipality to provide in its charter the procedure to fill a vacancy on its governing body for which the unexpired term is 12 months or less.”

Proposition Number 8 (HJR 147 and SJR 54)

HJR 147 would repeal the Tex-as Constitution’s maximum tax rate for a Hidalgo County hospital district; the maximum rate is currently set at 10 cents per $100 valuation. This rate is lower than the maximum tax rate allowable for hospital dis-tricts in all other counties in the State (75 cents per $100 valu-ation). The repeal of the con-stitutional cap would authorize hospital district tax rates in Hidalgo County equal to the hospital district tax rate laws applicable to all other Texas counties.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment repealing Section 7, Ar-ticle IX, Texas Constitution, which relates to the creation of a hospital district in Hidalgo County.”

Proposition Number 9 (SJR 42)

SJR 42 would expand the po-tential sanctions that the State Commission on Judicial Con-duct can issue following a formal proceeding. This con-stitutional amendment would allow the Commission to issue an order of public admonition, warning, reprimand, or a re-quirement to obtain additional training or education in addi-tion to the Commission’s cur-rent authority to issue a public censure or recommend remov-al or retirement of a judge.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amend-ment relating to expanding the types of sanctions that may be assessed against a judge or justice following a formal pro-ceeding instituted by the State Commission on Judicial Con-duct.”

Lady Lion Cross Country

The Lady Lions wonSaturday’s cross countrymeet  held atMoulton  City Parkin  Moulton, Texas. Thiswas also the first three-mile race of the season forthe Lady Lions as theyprepare for District. 

“The victory was welldeserved,” said CoachReuben Ortiz, “but itshow  the Lions  won thatmakes this victoryunique. They had two di-

visions for the ladies, atwo-mile course and athree-mile course.  Lock-hart was  the only fullgirl’s team that chose thethree-mile course.”

Because the LadyLions were the only girls’team entered in the three-mile course, they were in-vited to run against eitherthe JV Boys or JV Girls,the Varsity Boys – SmallSchool, or to run on theirown.

The Lady Lions choseto run with the VarsityBoys – Small School divi-sion.

Freshman Cristal Trejowas the first to cross theline for the Lady Lions,fishing the course in21:08.  Junior Gabby Es-cobedo was not too farbehind, finishing with atime of 22:06 to onceagain finish as the LadyLions’ number two run-ner.

Right on Gabby’s heelswere sophomore MoiraSalinas (22:48), seniorNessa Rios (23:27), andLauren Scheulke(26.43) finishing as Lock-hart’s varsity three, fourand five runners respec-tively. 

“All five of these ladiesare getting better day byday,” Ortiz said. “I can’tsay enough aboutthem.  They ran, fought,and competed againstthemselves and youngmen with little to nofear. Everyone was cheer-ing for the girls andamazed how they com-peted and beat a majorityof the young men.  Thisdefinitely helped pushour girls and I’m sure ithelped push these youngmen as well. Cristal andLauren fought off someyoung men with strongkicks, which made excit-ing finishes for the crowd

to watch. Moira ran ag-gressive from start to fin-ish.  Gabby andNessa ran smart and hardwhich helped themtremendously.”

In the Junior Varsitydivision, where morethan 60  runners en-tered, the Lady Lions fin-ished fourth in a tightteam race with 78 points.

They barely missedsecond and third placehonors given toSmithville with 71, andSchulenburg with60. Bloomington took theteam title with 22. 

Freshman Sara Burrierran her first ever highschool cross country raceand finished in excitingfashion, out kicking fourrunners the final 400 me-ters to medal, finishing10th overall with a timeof 16:39 for the two-milecourse. 

Junior Kaitlyn Adams

continues to shine also,medaling in her secondmeet finishing 13th over-all with a time of16:53.  Seniors SierraSteele and Ana Espinosaran smart races to worktheir way up finishing22nd (18:09) and 40th(21:29). Kaylah Rodriguezrounded out as the LadyLions’ fifth runner, finish-ing with a 44th (23:25)place finish and givingthe JV team their firstteam finish of year. 

“You need a minimumof five runners to make ateam, so the girls knewthey were not only run-ning for themselves butfor their team,” Ortizsaid. “The finish wasmostly uphill whichdrained numerous run-ners but as a whole ourgirls passed more thanthey got passed and youcan’t ask for anymorethan that.”

The Lions fell behindby three touchdownswhen Briesemeisterscored with seconds re-maining in the first half.One of Briesemeister’sPAT attempts was suc-cessful, putting the Lionsbehind 19-0 at half time.

“Their “B” Team quar-terback was fast,” Rot-zler said. “When he gotinto the open field, I amnot sure we have anyoneon our ‘A’ team thatcould catch him.”

The Lions’ only scorecame on a 20-yard run byDillon Hazelett late inthe third quarter. The

PAT attempt failed, leav-ing the score 19-6 infavor of Briesemeister.Briesemeister’s quarter-back would break looseone more time in thefourth quarter, scoringand converting a PAT,making the final score 26– 6, Briesemeister.

“We had a lot of op-portunities, but droppeda lot of wide open passesand had some brokenplays that hurt us on of-fense,” Rotzler said. “Weare looking for signifi-cant improvement by thetime we play San MarcosGoodnight next Tues-

day.”

As a mark of respectafter the crushing defeat,though, Head CoachBrian Herman encour-aged his team to standand pay respect to CedarCreek’s school song, be-fore breaking for thenight to celebrate withtheir friends and fami-lies.

A change in theteam’s priorities was re-sponsible for the differ-ence between theone-point win overCrockett and the skin-ning of the Eagles.

“They responded tothe start fast and finishstrong theme of theweek,” he said. “Theboys wanted to showthat they could play acomplete game 48 min-utes of full throttle foot-ball.”

Prove it they did, asthey stacked up 627yards and 20 first downs,despite losing 85 yardsto penalties.

“Many of the penal-ties came late in thegame after the outcomewas clear and there werea mix of kids on the fieldthat don’t always playtogether,” Herman said.“Also, many of thepenalty yards came fromphysical play andweren’t so much mentalerrors.  We will alwaysfocus on eliminating themental errors and under-stand that in a fast mov-ing game that there willbe penalties that occurand that some are justpart of the game. Some-times when a kid goes tomake a tackle his handwill unintentionally

touch the facemask andthe officials may throw aflag.”

The Lions have a byethis week, before hostingthe Seguin Matadors forHomecoming on Sept.27.

“Open weeks can be ablessing or a curse,” Her-man said. “In our case itcould be seen asboth. We clearly need toget some of the boyswell, so in that case it isa blessing. The challengeof the next two weeks isriding that momentumfrom a big win.”

Last year when theyplayed Seguin, in-clement weather and re-peated fumbles cost theLions dearly, when theylost the game 38-12. Sofar this season, the Mata-dors are 3-0, with victo-

ries over Crockett (55-27), New Braunfels (38-31) and Del Valle (35-34).

The Lions kick off at7:30 p.m., and Home-coming activities will behosted before the game,and during halftime.kathibliss@post-register.com
