By MARK GLOVER Marathon News Leader MARATHON
– The Sixth Annual M2M foot race, sponsored by SandRidge Energy, is set to
run tomorrow, Oct. 18. The starting whistle will blow at 8 a.m. Last
year, 196 runners competed in the 26-mile Boston-qualified, nationally
sanctioned race. “People
who come out here to the race, want to come back, and that’s important,” M2M
Committee Chair Marsha Roberts said. “It’s great to fill up the hotels during
race weekend but my goal is get people back. Repeat customers are good for
the economy.” There
will be a spaghetti dinner prior to the race at the Marathon Community
Center. Plates are $8 and it starts at 6 p.m. tonight. Proceeds
from race weekend benefit the Marathon Chamber of Commerce. Last year, the chamber was able to donate
$2,500 from the race proceeds to help complete construction of the Marathon
Community Center. 50
years service By MARK GLOVER Marathon News Leader ALPINE
– Attorney Mike Barclay of Alpine was recognized by the Texas Bar Association
recently for 50 years of distinguished service. “I
checked the average age for lawyers who got this award and it was ‘deceased,’”
Barclay deadpanned from behind his oak desk at his office here. On
the walls are a stuffed bass and a pheasant, a poster of the courthouses of
Texas, a placard from the Texas Bar warning potential clients of attorney
misconduct and a crystal ball that takes one corner of his desk. “I
look in it to see what to charge,” Barclay said. Barclay
and his wife Barbara live with their son Jacob in a 14-bedroom, seven-bath
former bed and breakfast here. “There’s
no waiting,” Barclay said, rolling his good eye toward the three-story
building next to his office. He
started his practice as a defense lawyer in Dallas while Dwight D. Eisenhower
was in office. “One
of my first cases was a Cuban gentleman who was in jail for some kind of
swindle. His jail ID said, ‘Hold for Havana.’ Bautista was still in power and
they wanted to extradite the guy,” Barclay said. “The next thing you know,
Bautista’s out, Castro’s in and I get my man off.” Barclay
peered over his glasses. “But
he ended doing time anyway in Michigan for another swindle,” he said. After
25 years in Dallas, Barclay and his first wife, Carol, who died in 1984,
decided it was time to get out of the rat race. They ended up in Alpine with
the idea of semi-retirement. But
that all changed. Barclay
now spends most of his time defending “mules” and “coyotes” in federal court. “Until
the river flooded, I had business in court every day,” Barclay said, leaning
back in his dark leather chair. “Although I hear they caught one in Sierra
Blanca today.” Coyotes
traffic in human souls, smuggling illegal immigrants across the border and
beyond. “I
represented a man from Tupelo, Mississippi, a domino player,” Barclay said.
“But there wasn’t much money in it so he became a long-haul trucker – hauled
illegals from El Paso to Dallas in crates that he lashed down and tarped on
his flat-bed trailer. They busted him with 20 illegals. ‘Are they gonna put
me in the electric chair?’ The guy asked me. “I
said, ‘no, but the law says five years for each illegal, ten years if you
profit and 20 years each if you handled them dangerously. And they say you handled
them dangerously.’ The guy stands up and says, ‘How can that be? I hauled
2,000 a week for three years and never lost one.’” “Mules,”
on the other hand, are either back packers that cross the Rio Grande and hike
through some of the most desolate country in the world with as much dope as
they can strap to their backs or drivers hauling bigger loads. They
are contracted by dealers in Mexico. With expenses paid up front and a chance
to earn the going rate of $2,000 at destination, many risk prison to try it. Most of Barclay’s clients are indigent and
unable to pay. Article
Six of the US Constitution guarantees everybody a right to be defended by a
lawyer and 75 percent of Barclay’s clients are appointments from either the
state or the federal government. But
not all his clients are poor. CONTINUED NEXT WEEK MARATHON
– The Marathon Volunteer Fire Department visited with Pre-K to eighth grade
students this week during Fire Prevention Week to spread the word that, with
a little extra caution, home fires can be prevented. Fire
Prevention Week is the longest running public health and safety observance on
record. President
Woodrow Wilson first issued the National Fire Prevention Day proclamation in
1920 and Fire Prevention Week observation began in 1922. It
was established to commemorate the Great Chicago Fire of October, 1871, that
killed more than 250 people, left 100,000 homeless, destroyed more than
17,400 structures and burned 2,000 acres.
With
nearly 400,000 home fires in 2006, the theme for this year is “It’s Fire
Prevention Week: Prevent Home Fire!” The
MVFD set up stations for the Marathon students to visit. Tim
Thayer and Tara Sechrest demonstrated the correct – and incorrect – ways to contact
911. Geoffrey
Lemmer showed the groups leading causes of electrical fires in homes and ways
to prevent them. Students held their ears as Rusty Johnson
and Richard Cavness sounded a home fire alarm. Mats
provided a place for the youngsters to show how to “stop, drop and roll” with
Larry Vela and Karen Seaton. David and Christina Menard constructed a
cardboard house to demonstrate the importance of having two exit strategies
in case of a fire. Fire
Chief Daniel Eaton explained to the students that the most important thing to
remember was to “get out and stay out.” A
practice fire drill led students outside where they were able to spray water
from the hose on the fire truck. They were also able to climb in and take a
look around inside the vehicle. Cookies,
drinks and prizes rounded out the visit. Third
grader Zane Roberts thought the best part was when the fire department used a
fog machine during the fire drill. to
hold fundraiser MARATHON
– The Marathon Public Library, a branch of the Alpine Public Library, depends
upon private donations in order to stay viable. Right
now, Librarian Carol Townsend said some fund-raising is needed as much of the
library’s bank account was depleted by the implementation of another successful
summer reading program. A
fundraising event for the library will be next week, Oct. 25 and 26, at the
Community Center. Townsend
and assistant Shirley Rooney have been “weeding” some of the books from the
shelves in the last few weeks to make room for newer acquisitions. “There
are some great books for sale at bargain prices,” Townsend said. The
Friends of the Marathon Public Library will host a book sale at the Community
Center from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 25. Most
of these books are hardbacks – both fiction and non-fiction – and will sell
for $1 to $5. Steve
Griffis is donating many of his brand-new sales review copies from University
of Texas Press, University of New Mexico Press, University of Nebraska Press,
Texas Tech University Press and University of Oklahoma Press, also priced to
sell. Some
of the books are still in shrink-wrap and could make good Christmas gifts. There
are also some rare, out-of-print and first editions, which are priced
individually and all prices are negotiable. There
will also be some handmade craft items for sale. There
will be a salad luncheon at the Community Center On Sunday, Oct. 26. There is
no set price, but it is requested that those who partake make a donation to
the Friends of Marathon Library. The
book and craft sale will continue, as well. The meal will begin at 12:15
and photographer James Evans will share a slide show presentation of a new
book proposal at 1 p.m. Evans
presented the proposal on the book about the Big Bend at the Way Out West
Texas Book Festival in August. In
order to make more profit for the library, the Friends are asking that all
salads be donated. Some have offered to bring a salad but those
who also want to contribute can contact Townsend at the library at
432/386-4136 or by e-mail at marathonlib@yahoo.com. Emergency
care classes scheduled MARATHON
– Brewster County will sponsor Emergency Care Attendant classes in the
Marathon Community Center on two consecutive weekends in November. Attendance
is open to all persons interested in training in hopes of a possible return
of ambulance service to Marathon. Brewster
County Commissioner Ruben Ortega said there has not been an ambulance service
based in Marathon in at least four years. Ambulances
have to respond from Alpine and he said some have complained of the time it
takes to get service. “This
just starts the process but we have got to get started,” Ortega said. “We are
trying to get input from people. If they want the service, they need to participate.” There
will be no cost to the attendees for the ECA course but trainees must attend
all sessions. The
classes will be on November 7, 8 and 9 and November 14, 15 and 16. For
further information contact the Marathon Fire Department at marathonvfd
@yahoo.com or leave a message at 432/386-4400. Information will be provided as soon as it is
determined by Brewster County Commissioners Court. |
An
awards and post-race party will be at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Marathon Motel. Craig
Carter and the Spur of the Moment Band will provide entertainment. Volunteers are needed for three water stops at
Miles 8, 20 and 22. Help is also needed at the Finish Line to hand out water,
ribbons and to cut-off the tracking chips from the contestants’ shoes. Griffis
will be new MNL editor SANDERSON
– The Marathon News Leader has announced the appointment of Arlene
Griffis as editor. She
has been writing the “Friends of the Marathon Library” column but has agreed
to help out rounding up stories and pictures from the community. “My
husband Steve and I have been full-time residents of Marathon since 2005,”
she said. “We moved here from College Station where Steve worked for Texas
A&M University Press and I taught math at A&M Consolidated High
School.” The
couple has two grown daughters, Casey of Amarillo and Callie Garcia and
husband Dimitri of El Paso. Steve
Griffis works from home as the West Texas sales representative for University
of Texas Press and Arlene is retired from Presidio ISD where she was a high
school math teacher. “I
look forward to working with you to bring you local news and feature stories
but I need your help,” she said. “If you know of something that needs to go
into the paper, please e-mail me at arlenegriffis@sbcglobal.net or
call me at 386-4695 and leave a message. “The
deadline for making Friday’s edition is Wednesday at noon, so please get
information to me by noon on Tuesday – or earlier – so that I can write the
copy and get it to Jim Street in Sanderson,” she said. “We need lots of
Marathon news, so please help me know when and where things are happening.” “The News Leader looks forward to
working with Arlene,” Street said. “It’s not an easy job finding stories in a
small town but we believe she is just the person to make it happen.” ALPINE
-- A three-performance reprise of Liz Castillo’s Chicano adaptation of the
Henrik Ibsen classic, “A Doll’s House,” will be on stage Oct. 24 to 26 at Sul
Ross State University. “Casa
de Muñeca” will be performed at 8:15 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 24 and
25, and at 2 p.m. Oct. 26 in the Studio Theatre at the Francois Fine Arts
Building. Dona
Roman, associate professor of Theatre, will direct the play, which is being
entered in the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival. Castillo
has written a modern, Chicano adaptation of Ibsen’s revolutionary 1879
play, “A Doll House.” It
is said that Ibsen felt that, rather than merely live together, husband and
wife should dwell as equals, free to become their own human beings. Consequently,
Ibsen’s critics attacked him for failing to respect the institution of marriage.
Castillo’s
Spanish-English update follows the same theme and how it still remains an
issue of conflict in many households today. Her
version takes the main idea of Ibsen’s play, moves it to a modern, border-town
family. In
Castillo’s play, as in Ibsen’s, Nora, a devoted wife and mother, finally realizes
that her husband’s pride will never allow her to become an equal. Will
Nora be able to accept her role as her husband’s “muñeca” or doll and never
an equal? Cast
members include Amber Bowman of Odessa as Nora, Eduardo Ruiz of Canutillo as
Thomas, Savahna Estrada of Mission as Christina, David DeLaO of Alpine as Dr.
Chavez, Pedro Garcia of Alpine as Sergio, Maritza Mata of Alpine as Jennifer
and Marco Mata of Alpine as Andres. “It
is marvelous how the Ibsen classic has translated into the modern setting,”
Roman said. “The students can relate to the theme. Students in this diverse
region can be at a crossroads of choices with their lives, balancing family
and career.” MARATHON
– Brewster County Sheriff Ronny Dodson and Deputy Edward Cardoza, or “Mr.
Deputy” as kids call him, were in elementary classrooms last week talking
about safety with the students. They were all fingerprinted and the Child
Identification Kits were sent home with each student. All
parents needed to do was add a recent photo so, in case of emergency, the kit
would be ready to give to law enforcement.
Library
plans PJ party at school MARATHON
– The Marathon Public Library will have Pajama Night at 7 p.m. tomorrow, Oct.
18, in the Elementary School auditorium here. Children
six to ten years old can break out their favorite PJs, teddy bear and Mom or
Dad and head for the library for a night of fun. There
will be a puppet show, stories and even a Halloween game, as well as a fall
craft project. The program is free and will last about an hour. The Marathon Public Library reminds kids to
wear their PJs for extra fun. Perfect
attendance brings rewards MARATHON
– The first six weeks at Marathon Elementary School ended with 11 students
enjoying chili dogs and chocolate chip cookies. Students
with perfect attendance were treated to the “dogs” with all the fixings. Marci
Roberts of French Co. Grocer donated some of her freshly-baked chocolate chip
cookies and Superintendent Conrad Arriola brought a $10 bill for each
student. Perfect
Attendance Certificates were awarded to kindergarten students Russell Martin
and Sean Ramirez. First
grade students were Isaac Briones and Loreyna Cardoza. Second grade students included Alyssandra
Cardoza, Colee Charlesworth, Noah Lopez and Alyssa Olvera. Third
grade students not missing a day were Loryn Garlick and Cameden Lujan and the
only fourth grade student roaming the halls every day was Jesse Lopez. Marathon
Library News By ARLENE GRIFFIS Library Friend MARATHON
– Have you ever had an experience that made you feel as if you were somehow
meant to be in that specific place at that specific time? Steve
and I were in Abilene on sales calls in August and the dogs and I stayed at
the motel while Steve went to call on his customers, Glenn and Carol
Dromgoole at Texas Star Trading Company. Since
Glenn and Carol have a bit of experience at hosting book festivals, Steve was
telling them about the success of our first Way Out West festival and was
picking their brains for names of authors we might contact for next year’s
event. Glenn
picked up a book and handed it to Steve and said, “These guys would be good.
They were at our festival last year and they have an amazing story to tell. “In
fact, they are speaking at Moody Auditorium on the ACU campus tonight,” Glenn
said. “You and Arlene ought to go and hear them.” Steve
came back to the motel and showed me the book, “Same Kind of Different as Me”
by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. I
was familiar with the book but did not really know what it was about. But,
having no other plans for that evening, I said yes when Steve asked if I
would like to go and hear the authors speak. To
put it simply, it was truly an amazing experience. Ron
Hall spoke first and Denver Moore wrapped it up with a short, but powerful oration
of his own. I
was on the edge of my seat the entire time, absolutely mesmerized as these
two men described how their lives had become intertwined. It
was incongruous that these two ever even met each other, much less developed
the relationship that has been such a dynamic force within the city of Fort
Worth. I
have since read their book, which I would like to summarize and try to
explain why I feel that everyone else should read it, too. Denver
Moore grew up in Louisiana under conditions termed as “modern-day slavery.” It
would be difficult to imagine a more underprivileged childhood than Denver’s.
After
escaping the plantation and even serving some time in prison, Denver made his
way to Fort Worth where, after a series of misfortunes, he eventually became
homeless. Ron
Hall, on the other hand, while growing up in very modest circumstances, was
determined to attend college and make something of his life, which he was
able to do through much hard work and perseverance. In
fact, his success surpassed all his wildest dreams. He
married his college sweetheart Deborah and after a career as a banker, began
to dabble in buying and selling valuable artwork. Seeming
to have a natural instinct for the art business, Ron enjoyed making deals all
over the globe as he and Deborah became quite wealthy. As
is often the case, as Ron was busy making money he temporarily lost sight of
the more important things in life, namely his friends and family. After
much stumbling and a fair amount of soul-searching, he became determined to
rebuild his relationship with his wife.
Deborah
had become involved in serving food at a homeless shelter and Ron agreed to
join her in this effort, albeit somewhat reluctantly. As
the couple became more and more involved in their volunteer efforts, Deborah
shared with her husband that she had had a dream about a man who would be a
savior to the homeless of the city of Fort Worth. She had even seen the man’s
face, she claimed. Although
Ron was used to these dreams and visions that Deborah had upon occasion, he
remained the pragmatic one and was somewhat skeptical of these supernatural
visitations. One
day, a huge, angry black vagrant came into the soup kitchen where the Halls
served and he came with a vengeance. He
was shouting, knocking people aside, breaking dishes, and threatening to kill
everyone there. As
staff and patrons tried to calm the man, Ron and Deborah sought safety. As
they were crouched behind the steam tables, Deborah turned to Ron and said,
“Ron, that’s him. That’s the man in my dream.” As
remarkable as it sounds, Deborah’s dream did turn out to be prophetic and the
story of how Denver Moore really did become the savior of the homeless in
Fort Worth is nothing short of a miracle. “Same
Kind of Different as Me” is told in two voices, alternating between telling
the story from the perspective of Ron and that of Denver. It is the true story of two lives that were changed
forever and, if you read it, it just might change yours, as well. Happy
Reading. Arlene
Griffis is a volunteer at Marathon Public Library, which is a branch of
Alpine Public Library. |

– Halftime ceremonies at the Sanderson High School football with Sierra
Blanca was not the usual cheerleaders and bands at midfield. All
eyes turned to the stands as Terrell County Independent School District
honored longtime schoolteacher Margaret Farley, “a big supporter of Sanderson
Schools and a former teacher for the school for many years,” Superintendent
Gary Hamilton said. “She
is here tonight with members of her family and the school district would like
to give a special salute to Mrs. Margaret Kinkler Farley,” Hamilton said. Farley
was born Margaret Kinkler in Bee County on August 5, 1916. She
graduated from high school in 1934 and attended Texas Women’s College in
Denton, majoring in Library Science. She
began teaching in 1937 near Beeville but, in 1941, she rode the train to
Sanderson to interview for a teaching position here. “She
got the job, married Mr. Ernest Farley in 1945, took some time off to have
her two daughters Eloise and Beverly – who are with her tonight – and
returned to teaching here in the early 1950s,” he said. “Mrs. Farley was a
librarian, taught Spanish, English, typing and science. She Sponsored the
Spanish Club, the National Honor Society and the high school newspaper.” Farley
has four grandchildren and four great-grand children. “With
over 30 years of teaching, Mrs. Farley retired in 1981,” Hamilton said.
“There are several generations of Sanderson natives who have had the privilege
of being in Mrs. Farley’s classes. “At
92 years young, she is still active in numerous community and civic endeavors
and also her church,” he said. “Terrell County ISD is proud to say thank you
to Margaret for her support and loyalty of its athletic and academic activities.” School
Board members and family gathered around the honoree and presented her with
flowers and a small gift. Family
members included daughters Beverly Farley Choate of Sanderson and Eloise
Farley Haynes of Amarillo. With
Choate were her daughters Becca Choate Jarvis of Carrollton and Meg Choate of
San Antonio, her granddaughter Tyler Jarvis and friend Holland Jackson of Carrollton. With
Haynes were friends Paul Wirtz of Amarillo and his daughter Victoria Wirtz of
Dallas. ‘not
over till it’s over’ By JIM STREET Ed & Pub SANDERSON
– As long-time New York Yankee catcher Yogi Berra was often quoted as saying,
“It ain’t over till it’s over.” The
truth of Yogi’s crude wisdom was evident Friday in a football game many said
would decide the championship of Six Man Football’s Division II, District 8
here. The
final outcome was still in doubt in the final three seconds but, when it was
all over, The Sanderson Eagles had bested Sierra Blanca 36-32. It
was the closest game we have seen in six-man football and the low score was
just the first clue it would be a defensive battle. A
45-point “mercy rule,” which would have ended the game early, was never
seriously considered after both sides went scoreless until a scant 33 seconds
remained on the first quarter timepiece. It
was also announced this week that the Eagles have been named the Army Strong
Team of the Week. Ryan
Rosas matched the time on the clock with a 33-yard gallop to put the hometown
Eagles on top. The points after failed and it was 6-0 as the first-quarter
horn sounded. The
two played for two more minutes until Sanderson quarterback and safety Jacob
Bena-videz recovered a fumble. But
the Eagles turned it right back over and Ian Pantoja ran it in from the Eagle
three-yard line. The points after failed for the Vaqueros and the game was
knotted at six apiece. But
J.D. Brotherton put the Eagles on top when he intercepted a pass at the
Vaquero 35 and ran it in for six more points. Darren Seidel booted the points
after at it was 14-6 Eagles with 5:19 left in the half. But
one minute later, Vaquero Adam Ramirez scored from ten yards out. A low snap
prevented any points after so the Eagles remained with a tenuous 14-12 lead. That
was the way the clock still read at the final horn for the half and the teams
headed to the locker room. All
eyes turned to the stands as Terrell County ISD honored retired longtime
teacher Margaret Farley and the new and improved Sanderson Band entertained
with some fresh new songs. Then
it was back to action and the second half was only 11 seconds old when
Pantoja galloped 50 yards for a Vaquero score. James Perez found the key this
time and booted for two more and it was 20 to 14 in favor of the visiting
team. About
half a quarter later, Ryan Rosas started another Eagle drive by intercepting
on his own four and running out to the 12. Jacob
Benavidez had a couple of long runs in the ensuing drive and threw to Ryan
for another big gain. The
quarter came to an end with the Eagles still trailing 20-14 but, with only
five seconds gone in the final stanza, Ryan threw to Darren Seidel for the
final four yards and the Eagles again had a two-point edge at 22-20. The
two sides exchanged the ball through much of the final period but the
Vaqueros tallied again with 1:52 on the clock and it was 26-22. But
in spite of the time, it was not over. J.D. Brotherton scampered 25 yards for
an Eagle score and it was then 30-26. There
were just 16 ticks left when Adam Ramirez found Vaquero teammate Ian Pantoja
for four yards and six points. The PAT failed and was 32-30. But it still
wasn’t over. After
the kickoff, Jacob galloped for 33 yards and then found Darren in the end
zone for the final 30 and it was 36-32 with three seconds on the clock. The
Eagles kicked off but the Vaqueros were unable to score and the final went
into the books, 36 for the Eagles and 32 for the Sierra Blanca crew. We
said last week, the Eagles are either fortunate or talented because they have
three players able to kick the ball. Make
that four. Phillip
Lascano punted for 47 yards in the second half Friday, one of the longest –
if not the longest – we have seen in this league. “I’m
real proud of the boys,” Head Coach Mark Dominguez said. “They did an
excellent job.” Tonight,
the Eagles travel to Balmorhea to take on the Bears. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. Last
week, Borden County downed Buena Vista 57-12, Fort Davis bested Rankin 66-20
and Westbrook edged Grandfalls-Royalty 66-62. |
