A Fall River Mills woman received minor injuries when her car tangled with an emer-gency vehicle near Wood-man Lane on Highway 299 east of Bella Vista last Wednesday after-noon.

According to High-way Patrolman Mark Redding, the Bella Vista Fire Company received

a medical call at 2:15 p.m. and Volunteer Fire Fighter Robert Baker, 49, of Bella Vista was re-sponding in Rescue Unit 33 with lights and siren, eastbound on Highway 299.

Brenda Turman, 43, of Fall River Mills was driving her Subaru Out-back eastbound ahead SEE CRASH, A-6

“It’s a sad day,” Hiway Garage own-er Lawrence Agee said as he, his wife Eleanor and son David watched the sign company remove his Chevrolet Dealership sign.

The Chevrolet logo had graced the building since 1924. The town of McAr-thur, one of two principal towns in the ranch and farm communities in the Fall River Valley had never been a “volume dealership, but more cars and trucks in the Valley and surrounding area graced Hiway Garage license plate

holders than any other. Then Chevro-let got into financial trouble and ig-noring loyalty or longevity decided to go with volume dealers, dumping the smaller dealerships without regard for circumstances. The dealership was ended late last year with the sale of the last of the Chevrolets he had in stock. The dealership totally became a thing of the past with the removal of its sign Wednesday.

Planning Commissioners approved an ordinance governing growing and sell-ing medical marijuana in the county. The vote came following a 45 minute hearing Thursday, and is expected to be adopted by the County Board of Super-visors Tuesday (today). Commission-ers listened to those for and against a sweeping set of restrictions which limits outdoor grows on an acre or less to 60 square feet and grows on larger parcels and limits grows to 240 square feet.

FALL RIVER MILLS - Dis-cussions between Mayers CEO Katharine Ann Campbell and the hospital district’s board of directors is continuing, Board Chairman Mike Kerns says.

The board met with their attorneys in closed session

Wednesday and will meet again next week with Camp-bell and her attorneys.

“There’s been no conclu-sion yet,” Kerns says.

He added that he wants to assure the folks in the district that there is an excellent man-

agement team in place and the consumers who will use May-ers will not notice any differ-ence in the level of services provided.

He added that he is “very optimistic that the matter will be solved very amicably.” He went on to say that the district is facing a lot of challenges

and needs to move on as quick-ly as possible and focus on the other issues.

Campbell was put on paid leave in December because the “proactive” board couldn’t get along with a “very strong willed” CEO.

Opinion To sin by silence when they should protest makescowards of men.” President Abraham Lincoln

It wouldn’t be so bad if it hadn’t been so easy to

correct.Roughly a year ago

CPA Charlie Pillon told the Fall River Mills Com-munity Services District that they had a whole slew of real problems. Roughly six months ago CPA Dave Wallace reen-forced the fact that the district was in trouble, bad trouble.

Then District Manag-er Mike Pena poo-pooed the audit indicating that the auditor was med-dling in areas where he had no business and any problems should be kept in house, not have been leaked to the press. He went so far as to try to cancel Wallace’s visit that had been ordered at the insistence of two of the board members, Bar-bara Briggs and Sandi Jensen.

He stonewalled nearly every effort of those two directors to get a handle on the problems and cor-rect them.

The obvious fact that the district was nearly bankrupt, that they had at best incompetent management, and that they had to do some-thing, as clear as it was to the pair and the audi-tors was an extremely hard sell to the other three board members, who finally resigned rather than admit the magnitude of the prob-lem or who was being labeled as the culprit.

The minute the three resigned and new board members were legally seated, things began to happen.

The new board got rid of Pena. The board found quickly that all they had to do was ask their two employees for help and those folk bent

over backward to accom-modate.

With their help and the board members han-dling the day to day man-agement functions they saved one salary. That, in addition to instituting cost saving measures, internal controls and policies regarding travel and the use of district vehicles, and starting collections on past due accounts, it only took six months to get on more solid ground. When the new board started the district’s reserves were well under $1,000 and have now swelled to over $30,000. Additionally they found the district had stock and managed to sell it.

On a more solid finan-cial footing they went through a thorough and well thought out recruit-ment effort to obtain a good new manager.

Additionally they decided to follow the same path as many other special district and have a clerical employee become the board’s secretary, preparing agendas, taking minutes and the like.

Suddenly they had timely agendas and complete minutes. The bills were available for review before the meet-ings. Additionally, the secretary was in the loop and could see why things were needed.

The new manager officially came on board January 1.

In the first 13 days on the job, he found the major cause for unac-counted water pumped in the district, found a chlorination system that he feels is usable and may well stop water quality problems cur-rently plaguing many of the customers, started to

get customers involved through a logo contest, prepared to keep them informed through a newsletter, started work-ing on a former board member’s suggestion for utilizing their allotment of water from the lake as a backup, started work-ing on a possible sale of district property not being used, developed and got the board’s bless-ing on what he feels are the priorities facing the district and overseen the day to day operations.

The board, continu-ing to be proactive, outsourced their payroll, and continued to pursue the possible acquisition of PG&E land through the stewardship pro-gram and have sched-uled a public workshop to get ideas from their customers for the land’s use, continued to keep the continuity of what they started by filling the vacancies of two of their number who filled their terms and needed to step aside because of other obligations.

Yes, they’ve got a ways to go and yes, the road’s going to have its share of rocks and ruts, but their accomplish-ments have been down-right awesome and the customers of the Fall River Mills Community Services District owe a big thank you to:

Board members Sandi Jensen, Barbara Briggs, Peggy Bowker, Bill Estes, Rich Hall, Bill Johnson and Quincy Hatch;

Employees Scott Sealander and Carolyn Barnett:

District Manager Stuart Busby;

Former district direc-tors Willy Brown and Todd Brown.

Wake up CallEditor: The state is

collecting, as a loan, just under six million dollars from Shasta County tax-payers.

Did the state raise taxes? No. They are just talking tax funds collect-ed, conserved and pro-tected by special districts over many years time. It is still your money, but think of it this way. They are taking it from your savings account, not di-rectly from your pocket. I am guessing the politi-cians who have done this think they are doing us a favor, doing us good? It is not the first time they have dipped into this re-serve.

Will special districts be forced to raise their service and supply costs to the public they serve? It is a possibility, though historically you will more than likely see them take the budget shortfall internally and it will show in the qual-ity of service they will be able to maintain.

There are 58 counties in the state of Califor-nia. Shasta is one of the smaller as far as popula-tion and tax funds avail-able. If they are getting six million from Shasta County, how much state-wide will be generated by this “loan” to the state? How much will be enough for them? How much longer can we, the taxpayers keep allowing our representatives to load more burdens onto our backs? When will we say “No More!” Seems to be a storm a-brewing and I personally am begin-ning to look forward to it!

Thank youEditor: I would like to

thank all my friends for the wonderful surprise 80th surprise birthday party on Saturday 9th. It was a complete surprise and more than I could ever hope for. I frankly did not know I knew that many people, too many to contact individually. I would not want to miss a single one of you.

Love and gratitude to you all.

Medical MarijuanaEditor: Somebody

needs to sit down and ex-plain to Burney substa-tion commander Forrest Bartell and Sheriff Tom Bosenko that they work for the people; the people decided via election that medical marijuana was going to be allowed for any person who obtained a prescription from a doctor, regardless of whether these little fas-cists thought that it was a legitimate reason or not. As a property owner in the inter-mountain area, I still follow closely the news in the area even though I now live in Ari-zona. We also passed a medical marijuana law here, but the legislature told any physician that they would revoke their license to write prescrip-tions if they prescribed marijuana to anyone! We now will be voting in No-vember to override this slap to the face of the voters, and the legisla-ture is prohibited from interfering with any per-son or doctor in this mat-ter. Only when this stu-

pid prohibition against marijuana is finally overturned completely will the people have the freedom guaranteed to them by the constitution, the cartels which are fully supported by the criminalization of mari-juana will disappear and a lot of law enforcement officers will have to find a real job instead of ha-rassing innocent, hard-working people whose only “crime” is smoking on a joint instead of get-ting drunk on alcohol.

Shannon Barber and James McMullen of Eagle River, Alaska cel-ebrated their marriage on December 20, 2009 in Reno, Nevada. Shan-non is the daughter of Ray and Tina Barber of Burney, California, and James is the son of Da-vid and Janice McMul-len of Eagle River, Alas-ka. Corey and Meghan Adkins of Henderson, Nevada, were atten-

dants at the wedding. A reception followed the ceremony at the Pep-permill Casino and Re-sort. The couple honey-mooned in Disneyland, and they will soon relo-cate to Travis Air Force Base. Both the bride and groom are 2008 graduates of Chugiak High School in Eagle River, Alaska, where they were high school sweethearts since 2006.

The 10th Annual Chocolate Festival mak-es its appearance on Sun-day, January 31, 2010 at George Ingram Hall at the Inter-Mountain Fair-grounds in McArthur. Once again there will be cash prizes to win, chocolate to taste, beau-tiful creations to admire, and amazing deserts to buy and take home. A children’s activity room means that there will be fun for the whole family. Chocolate tasting and other activities begin at 4:00 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults, $2.50 for chil-dren.

The Chocolate Festi-val is presented by the Mayers Intermountain Healthcare Foundation as a fundraiser for the Mayers Memorial Hospi-tal District. The proceeds from this year’s Choco-late Festival will be used to help purchase a Stress Test Treadmill System. This purchase will re-place a valuable piece of diagnostic equipment that has recently quit working. The ability to perform cardiac stress tests locally means that the test can be scheduled conveniently and per-formed quickly, avoided the added stress and the expense of a trip to Red-ding. Plus, when needed, appropriate treatment can begin right away.

To participate in the chance to win cash prizes, you are invited to enter your favorite choc-olate creation in four cat-egories. The categories are Adult, team of Adult and Child age 10 and un-der, and team of Adult and Child age 11 to 17. Cash prizes of $100 will be awarded to first place in each category with prizes also awarded for 2nd and 3rd place win-ners. The Grand Prize

winner takes home $200. In addition, in the cate-gory of edible Chocolate Sculpture, a $50 prize is awarded. You may enter in multiple categories, as many times as you wish.

Contest entries can be cake, cookies, brown-ies, pies, candy, and the ever popular miscella-neous. The only restric-tion is that they cannot require refrigeration; baked cheesecake is o.k. Each contestant is asked to provide 2 examples of each item they create, to be delivered between 12:30 and 2:00 p.m. the day of the Festival. One of the two entries will be used for judging and then be available for tast-ing by the public. The second entry will be auc-tioned and sold to the highest bidder. Entries in the Chocolate Sculp-ture category need only provide one example that will be judged on artistic merit only. Entry forms are available at Ray’s Food Place in Fall River Mills, at Safeway in Bur-ney, or by calling Marga-ret Keadle at Mayers In-termountain Healthcare Foundation at 336-5511 x1226. All entries re-ceived by January 20 will be entered in an Early Bird Drawing to receive a cash prize of $50.

At 4:00 p.m. the tast-ing begins. The public is invited to taste the choc-olate to decide which items they will buy at the auction. While tasting, each person is may cast one vote for the coveted Tasters Choice Award, which earns the win-ner a $50 cash prize and the admiration of the crowd. Tasters will also have a chance to win a jar of chocolate kisses by guessing how many kiss-es are in the jar. There will also be a Kids’ Room

set up with games, activi-ties and prizes.

The highlight of the evening is when the auc-tioneer goes on stage at 5:00 and beings to auc-tion off the chocolate desserts and raffle items donated by local indi-viduals and businesses. Since this is a fundraiser for Mayers Memorial Hospital District, you can expect the bidding to be fast and high – espe-cially for the prize-win-ning entries.

For more information on how you can enter or attend this family friend-ly event, call Margaret Keadle at the Mayers Intermountain Health-care Foundation, (530) 336-5511 x1226 or send an email to [email protected].

In last months grap;hic showing the planned equipment storage building at the Burney Basin Mosquito Abatement District, we showed part of the new building extending along the side of the existing building. That is in error. That is what the district is trying to avoid because of planning restrictions.

Classic Jarlsberg is a semi-soft, part-skim milk cheese, with large “eyes” (think Swiss cheese) and mild, mellow-nutty flavor. America’s most popular imported cheese, Jarlsberg is incredibly versatile, complementing a broad range of meat, fish, vegeta-ble, egg, rice and pasta dishes as well as salads and sandwiches galore. It’s also perfect for munching as is, melts readily and smoothly in sauces and toppings.

Traditionally produced and aged “on the rind” in Norway, completely natural Jarlsberg is lower in fat and calories than many other cheeses. It’s also an excellent source of protein and calcium. Substitute Jarlsberg in almost any recipe calling for cheese - you’ll love the delicious results.

If you’re still concerned about the fat and calo-ries, there’s Jarlsberg Lite, a reduced fat cheese. Like its parents, it’s 100 percent natural and produced ac-cording to very strict quality standards. Rindless, it’s very easy to slice. While it’s significantly lower in fat (50 percent), calories (30 percent) and sodium (130 vs. 180mg) with only half the cholesterol, it successfully carries the classic’s distinctive mellow-nutty taste and has deceptively rich, creamy texture. As a bonus, Jarlsberg Lite also melts readily and is delicious in grilled cheese sandwiches, topped on a burger or just about any creative sandwich combination.

Today’s recipe, Braised Lamb Shanks with Jarls-berg, is a perfect winter dish. Because the meat is braised, it’s fall-off-the-bone tender. Feel free to keep the fat content down by using Jarlsberg Lite and fat-free beef broth (the canned brands are just fine). While it calls for beer, you can omit it if you like or substitute apple juice.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH JARLSBERG 4 pounds of lamb shanks (about 1 pound each 2 tablespoons Lucini Premium Select Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 chopped onion 2 minced garlic cloves1 1/2 cups beer1 1/2 cups beef brothIn large, heavy skillet, brown 4 shanks in olive oil.

Add onion and garlic. Cook until golden. Add beer and beef broth; cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours or until fork tender. Remove to platter. Reduce cooking liquid over high heat, 5 minutes. Strain, defat and set aside.

For the coating: 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Jarlsberg cheese 1 cup (1 inner packet) Norwegian crispbreads, crumbled with rolling pin or in food processor (or 1 cup flavored bread crumbs) 1 teaspoon crumbled dried rosemary Freshly ground black pepper to taste 2/3 cup cooking liquid from lamb shanksPreheat oven to 325F. Combine cheese with crisp-

bread crumbs, rosemary, pepper and cooking liquid. Divide mixture into 4 parts. Pat firmly on meaty tops and sides of lamb shanks to “blanket”. Place shanks on rack in baking pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or un-til coating is firm and nearly crisp. Serve with white beans, salad and crusty bread. Serve remaining pan juices in gravy boat. Serves 4.

In memory of Steingrimur Thorlaksson, Jr.Steingrimur Octavius Thorlaksson, Jr, also

known as Tavie and Thor to his family and friends, died January 11, 2010 at Enloe Medical Center with his son by his side. He was born March 16, 1919 in Japan to Caroline Thomas and Steingrimur Thorlaksson, Lutheran missionar-ies. They were a musical family and he played the violin, giving concerts of his own composi-tions beginning at 12. He lived there until he was 16 when he came to the U.S. to attend the Univer-sity of Washington .

When WWII began, he and his brother Erik were recruited into the Japanese Language School at the University of Colorado in Boulder, where he met and married the love of his life, Freda Henning, after a six week whirlwind court-ship! The family will celebrate their 67th wed-ding anniversary on Jan. 16.

He spent most of the war years in Hawaii as an interrogator at a Japanese POW camp. Af-ter Japan surrendered, he went to Hiroshima to translate for the doctors who were working with patients near the atomic bomb sites.

Freda and Tavie moved to Berkeley after the war where he finished school. His first job as a music teacher was with the Fall River School District and he taught there until he retired in 1984. They have three children: Carol Eastwick of Reno, Brooks Thorlaksson of Chico, and Thor Thorlaksson of Adin, Ca, and an honor-ary daughter, Abbie Dauterman of Chico; and two sons-in-law, Jack Eastwick and Ed Daniels, and daughter-in-law, Sheral Thorlaksson. He has three granddaughters: Michele (Rob Laing), Sara (Brendan Smith), and Rachael, and great grand-children, Devon, Jayden, and Tucker Laing; Adin Smith; Jeremiah, Jocelyn, and Jonah Capen; and Tayte Watkins.

He retired to Chico in 1984 and continued his love of music by attending the North State Sym-phony; his love of boats by floating them in the Lindo Channel when there was water; and his love of building, as he helped construct the Uni-versity’s Centennial Organ with Munetaka Yo-kata, with whom he shared many memories of Japan .

Tavie leaves his sister, Esther in St. Louis . He was preceded in death by sister Margrethe and brother Erik.

Mr. Thorlaksson was cared for by Freda for many years and by the wonderful staff at Pres-tige/Expressions, especially Dana, Trinity, Lee-Ann, and Katie; and by 4th floor nurses at Enloe for the last week, especially Stephen, Josh, Ra-chel, Angie, Jennifer, Sarah, Kathy, Caitlin, and Heather. Our appreciation for the respect, love and kindness given to him is unlimited as is our gratitude to our many friends who have been so supportive during these last years.

Condolences may be sent to BrusieFH.com. If you wish to commemorate Tavie’s life, the fam-ily requests, for those who love music, gifts to the North State Symphony, and for those who know how valuable end-of-life care is, a gift to Enloe to honor the compassionate care found there.

A celebration of his life will be held Feb. 6.

BURNEY — Roberto Clappini was known for his ability to deceive even the experts when it came to card tricks.

It came as no real sur-prise then that he tried to leave a card clue for detectives when he was murdered. Nor was it

a surprise that seeing through the cards was tougher than even he had thought - if he had time to think.

All of the suspects, all with plenty of motive, were among the 26 guests at the Angelina’s Mys-tery Buffet last Sunday

night.It took awhile, but

clues dribbled forth as the wine loosened tongues and the food made the suspects mel-low.

It seems that the de-ceased, “The Amazing” Roberto Clappini, was

too engrossed in his ca-reer as a world famous prestidigitator to pay at-tention to Peggy Brinks (l) who wanted to form a fan club for him and Mona Lapham, a music hall dancer who often performed on the same stage - a huge mistake.

He also told the board that he has not heard back from developer Frank Aventino, regard-

ing the district’s demand that he pay the balance owed from the start of the Community Facili-ties District. He felt he would hear from him be-fore the next meeting.

and that it looked pretty good.

A major problem brought to light by CPA Dave Wallace several months ago was that over 30% of the water pumped by the district was unaccounted for. Former manager Mike Pena had failed to ad-dress the issue in the few months that fol-

lowed before his termi-nation. Busby reported that he and his field man Scott Sealander had de-termined that over the years at least 41 meters had been paved over, built over or bypassed. The result would ac-count for a considerable amount of the missing water.

The resuce3 unit was nearing the address of the call and slowed to look as it over-took Turman’s vehicle. Turman reentered the eastbound lane imme-diately after the rescue unit passed.

Baker, observed the residence and its small driveway on the right. It was perpendicular with the highway and diffi-cult to enter. The rescue

unit, still with lights and siren activated, slowed and moved partially into the westbound lane to make a safe right hand turn into the driveway.

Turman failed to maintain the required 500 foot distance and began to overtake the rescue unit on the right hand side. The rescue unit turned right and hit her driver’s door as she passed.

Neither alcohol or drugs appear to have been a factor and both parties were wearing their seatbelts

DAY — Sometimes it is just a little harder than it should be!

Such is the case with the Gerow family on Day Road. Just a few weeks ago Nicole was in a seri-ous car accident right in front of our hospital.

Single-mom and col-lege student, Nicole was headed to Redding to complete this semester’s finals, before a patch of black ice changed that plan. Her car spun into the path of the Anderson wrestling team’s van, backward. The impact plowed the back seat for-ward, slamming it into her head.

It’s a miracle she sur-vived!

Unfortunately this injury has left Nicole’s body struggling to heal

from a serious eye injury.Most of us wouldn’t

hesitate for a second to protect our sight. But the lack of funds has her contemplating a post-ponement of surgery.

The family had their hands full before the ac-cident, taking care of their ailing grandmother and Nicole’s 2-year old rambunctious son.

As a small community we feel for our neighbors and help out when we can.

If you’re able to make a donation at this time, it would be a true blessing!

An account has been set up at Tri Counties Bank, P.O. Box 758, Fall River Mills, CA 96028 un-der the title “Let’s heal Nicole. Nicole Gerow.”

She, her family and friends thank you in ad-vance for your kindness.

FR slips past Trinity in triple OT, 100-94McARTHUR - It was a

game for the recordbooks. A game thatdrained players, coachesand fans. A game thatsaw Fall River comeback with three buzzerbeating baskets thateventually led to a 100-94win over visitingTrinity in triple over-time last Tuesday night.

It also kept everyoneup past bedtime, endingat 11:15pm, some twohours-plus after itbegan. For die-hard FallRiver fans the late hourdidn’t make a bit of dif-ference - the outcomewas worth the nervedraining wait!

There were heroics togo around during the 44minutes of play, startingwith Taylor Sloat’s 3-pointer just before thebuzzer that knotted thegame at 72-all, and keptthe Bulldogs fromextinction in regulation.Then there was TreyKramer’s bucket thatpushed the game intoovertime number two,

and Raphael Tschirky'sbuzzer beater that keptthem alive for the finalOT period where FallRiver finally pulled outthe win.

“I hear the fans wereas exhausted as I was,”coach Scott Gallionchuckled, “it was anerve drainer.”

Gallion agreed thathe couldn’t remember atriple overtime game inthe SCL, “and we’re try-ing to remember the lasttime anyone scored 100points,” he said in aninterview over the week-end.

Sloat topped FallRiver with 37 points, butwasn’t the high scorerin the game, as Trinity’sJustin Jeangerard hadan amazing 51 points indefeat - a career high forthe Wolfpack senior.

Tschirky finishedwith 20 points, while

Mitch Pena hit for nineand Kramer had eight.Jon Neugebauerchipped in seven, whileBen Parker and WillMcClelland each addedsix. Shawn Larsen hadfive and Colton VanRiettwo.

On defense, Sloathauled in 10 reboundsand had six assists onoffense, while Tschirkyhad nine boards, Penaeight and VanRietseven.

Fall River utilizedboth offense from thepaint and shooting fromdowntown - nailing adozen 3-pointers, led bySloat with five.

In a game with thatmany minutes, playersstart fouling out withregularity, and theBulldog’s bench depthcontributed mightily tothe win.

THREADING THE OPPOSITION... Burney Raider Trey Lacey threads the Mt.

Shasta defense in SCL loss to the Bears on the road Friday night.

FR JV’s lose OT thriller McARTHUR - In a

prelude to what was tocome later in overtimegames, the Fall RiverBulldog JV’s managedto push visiting Trinityinto OT, but couldn’tkeep up with theWolfpack scoringmachine, eventuallyfalling, 88-79.

Colton Policastrograbbed a missed shotand put it back up as thebuzzer sounded to pro-pel the two teams intoovertime Tuesday night.

“We competed withthe top offensive team inthe league,” summed upFR coach TarronCorder, “but we madecostly mistakes thatwe’ll have to overcomefor the next time.”

Policastro led theBulldogs with 21 points,while Broc Putnam hit20 and Juke Parkerpumped in 17. JakeFarkas had 12 to com-plete players with dou-ble-digit scoring. TheBulldogs had to playmost of the game with-out their leading scorer,Austin Reynolds, whogot into foul troubleearly in the game.

Three nights laterFall River had littletrouble in bouncing vis-iting Etna, 63-42.

Policastro and Parkertied for the team lead

with 14 each, whileReynolds hit nine.

FR is in Modoc for anunusual Wednesdaygame and then travels

the short distance toBurney on Friday totake on their intra-dis-trict rival BurneyRaiders.

ROAD BLOCK... Big Valley JV Freddy Rodriguez

finds the way blocked by Dunsmuir defenders Friday

night in Evergreen League opener won by the Tigers.

With many of thestarters from both sidesbenched with fouls, theFall River depth of tal-ent coming in from thebench saved the day inthe final OT period.

With the excitementstill permeating theteam, the Bulldogs thenhosted Etna on Friday,“and my big fear wasthat we were emotional-ly drained coming offthe triple overtimeTrinity game,” statedGallion.

His fear wasn’t real-ized, however, as histeam bounded out of thegate with a 24-13 leadafter the opening periodon their way to a 67-51win over the Lions.

Sloat again toppedthe squad with 24 points,with Parker nailing 13and Tschirky 12 in a bal-anced scoring attack.Larsen and Neugebauer

each had six, whilePena, Kramer andVanRiet added twoapiece in the SCL win.

“We got it inside nice-ly,” the coach remarked,“and we had our outsidegame working too.” Hewent on, “our rotation tokeep opponents fromlay-ups worked, failingonly a couple of times inthis one.”

The Bulldogs, now 3-1(12-3 overall) are stayingin the hunt in the racefor the SCL title, tiedwith Mt. Shasta in con-ference play just onegame behind the WeedCougars.

Fall River goes toAlturas for a rareWednesday gameagainst the ModocBraves (0-3, 0-12), thenventure to Burney totake on the arch-rivalRaiders (1-1, 7-6) onFriday.

MT. SHASTA - TheBurney JV girlsresumed Shasta-Cascade League playwith a sound trouncingof the hosting LadyBears here Friday night,45-26.

Ivy Wilson ledBurney with 13 points,while Myisha Carpenterhit for a dozen andShelly Rodriguez hadeight.

Eleven days earlierthe Lady Raider JV’sstarted 2010 with a 43-31loss to Modoc in Burney.

Wilson scored 12points, while Carpenterhad 11 in the loss.

Burney is in WeedTuesday (tonight) thenreturns to host arch-rival Fall River onFriday (weather permit-ting).

Trey Lacey notchednine pints, while TonyMazzini and Nick Grayadded two each andMacLoud Luntey hitone.

On defense, the 6-4Phipps was poundedunder the boards haul-ing in six rebounds - wayshort of his usual dou-ble figure tally. Lunteytopped Burney inrebounding with nine.

Ferguson added twosteals to lead the team inthat category.

“It was a tough, phys-ical game,” summed upcoach Bower, “the scoredidn’t do justice to thegame.”

The hustling Bearsnabbed 13 steals on thenight, while Burney hadonly three.

The Raiders (1-1, 7-6)

are in Weed to face theleague leading Cougars(4-0, 13-2) Tuesday(tonight), then return

home on Friday to hostrival Fall River (3-1, 12-3)in a Shasta-CascadeLeague game Friday.

The Tigers favoriteplay was to fast breakdown the sideline, thencut in the baseline to thehoop. “He (Hammons)did a great job of stop-

ping that play over andover,” White noted.

Big Valley (1-0 EL, 5-7overall) have a change intheir schedule for thisweek. Tuesday

(tonight’s) game willhave Surprise Valleycoming to Bieberinstead of a Cardinalroad trip. Friday willsee the Cards hostTulelake in the annualBig Valley Homecomingbasketball games.

Coaching encouragement from the sidelines_________

IT’S STRESSFUL... being on the sidelines where all you can do is holler encour-

agement and directions. Clay Lewis, coach at Big Valley, is a perfect example of

a coach who “Gets into it” from the sidelines.

B.R.I._______Continued from B-1Babajan lost by a Pin

to Lassen’s Zane Suarezin the battle for thirdplace.

Preston Simmons ofFall River took fifth inthe 119 pound division,while teammate AustinDoers finished sixth at125 pounds.

Big Valley’s WillLewis finished sixth at160.

In team competition,Lassen took home thetop honors at 199.50points, while Truckeewas second at 133 andModoc third with 129points. Fall River fin-ished with the best teamrecord of Intermoun-tain area schools at 10th,while hosting Burneywas 13th and Big Valley15th.

MT. SHASTA - For theLady Raiders, Mt.Shasta was not a friend-ly mountain. The host-ing Bears defeatedBurney, 57-32 in SCLplay Friday night. Itmarked the first hoopgame for Burney in 10days, and only the sec-ond game in 30 days.

Layoffs don’t help.“We just didn’t exe-

cute,” noted Burneycoach Tara Jones, “wejust had a rough game.”

She went on to note,however, “We’re 1-1 in

league, and that’s notthe end of the world.”

The Raiders couldn’tcontain a trio of LadyBears in Taylor Hansen(16 points), KismetProsper (13) and JanelleJaegel (11) who com-bined scored morepoints than Burney as ateam. No stats wereavailable at press timefrom Burney.

The Raiders (1-1, 4-6)travel to Weed (2-2, 2-9)Tuesday (tonight) thenreturn home to host FallRiver (4-0, 9-3) Friday.

DUNSMUIR - Foultrouble once again led tothe demise of the LadyCards, as the hostingLady Tigers made a lay-up at the buzzer to graba 44-43 win in theEvergreen League open-er for both teams.

Kathryn Barnett andAndrea Torres fouledout in the third quarter,and Kelsey Hawkinsjoined them on thebench in the fourth.

Big Valley trailedmost of the first half ina see-saw battle, but

managed to stay in frontmost of the second half,right up until the finaltwo-seconds.

“The story was at thefree throw line,” lament-ed BV coach RussHawkins, “we were onlyfive-of-23 from the line.”

Shelbe Hunsaker hit14 for BV, with YolliCastellanos nailing 11and Hawkins seven.

Kellum tossed in twopoints and led the teamwith eight assists, whileBrittani Larsen roundedout the 58 points withone.

Three nights later,the Bulldogs hosted everdangerous Etna, andcame away with a 58-54win.

Coach Kathy Jones,always looking for a bal-anced offensive attack,got her wish in this one,with four players hittingdouble figures, led byCearley with 14.

Bidwell, Vestal andContreras each put up 12points, while Carpenterand Kellum had foureach.

On defense, Cearleyhit her normal double-double with 13 rebounds,while Bidwell picked offeight and Vestal six.Vestal also led the teamwith four steals.

Fall River jumped outto an 18-7 lead in the firstquarter, and led 35-21 athalftime, only to see theLady Lions keep chip-ping away to make itclose at the end.

Fall River shot a poor14-of-34 at the line.
