Columbus officials say they need a new law that gives the police department the right to ask people “to move along.”

Columbus Town Council met Tuesday, March 22 and discussed recent issues with loitering.

The town currently has no ordinance to regulate loitering.

Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe and police chief Chris Beddingfield told council

of recent issues with young people hanging out in parking lots at night, a man with a sign that disrupted traffic and another man who sat on a bench in front of businesses for eight to 10 hours at a time.

“Recently the police depart-ment has had issues with loiter-ing and other events with people being on public sidewalks and disrupting traffic flow,” Kanipe said. “We have nothing in our

code to ask people to move along, for lack of better words.”

Beddingfield said one day a man stood near the roundabout with a signt hat said he was up-set at a local business regarding his mother-in-law. Columbus officials said they don’t want to prohibit free speech, but when an act causes traffic problems, something needs to be done.

Commissioners decide to look at all county salariesBy Leah Justice

Polk County Sheriff Donald Hill told commissioners this week that low salaries are caus-ing his employees to take higher paying jobs.

The Polk County Board of Commissioners met Monday, March 21 and discussed looking at all employee salaries during the upcoming budget process.

Hill said he recently lost his two senior officers who took higher paying jobs and another area is trying to recruit his senior officers now.

“I’ve offered to take a de-crease in my salary to give to my jailers,” Hill said. “It’s a shame what they have to live on.”

Hill said he is not trying to cause any problems, but some of his employees need to be compensated for what they do. He said he doesn’t blame his of-ficers for leaving Polk County for more money.

Commissioners decided the county needs to look at all em-ployee salaries, especially con-sidering no raises have been given the past two fiscal years. The county had a salary study done in 2008 and will use that to evaluate current salaries.

Commissioner Cindy Walker said she’s done a little research through the N.C. Institute of Government comparing Polk County’s salaries with other

North Carolina counties of simi-lar size and tax values and Polk is a little low.

“We are a little low,” said Walker. “I’m sure everyone is going to want more money and I’m not sure how we handle it.”

Hill said another issue in his department is that he has officers of the same rank with some mak-ing $8,000 more per year than others.

“Just because he’s been there 10 years more doesn’t mean he’s a better officer,” Hill said.

Polk County has steps and grades in its salary ranges and commissioners agreed that is the best approach for employees.

Hill is asking for fiscal year 2011-2012, which begins July 1, for several grade changes, with a total of more than $26,000 in salary increases.

Most of the requested in-creases come in the detention center, which Hill said no one understands what those officers have to endure with inmates. He mentioned being spit and urinated on as well as having to work days that others have off.

Changing grades in the deten-tion center would mean a $19,100 increase in salaries.

Sheriff says low salaries causing employees to leave

“We have nothing to address that,” said Beddingfield. “It was causing problems because traffic was stopping to read the sign.”

Another recent incident in-volved two people who were staying at the Days Inn who had an altercation and both were ar-rested, Beddingfield said. Both went to jail but then had nowhere to go.

Beddingfield said the police department gave one person a ride out of town, but the other de-cided to sit on the bench in front of a downtown restaurant for eight to 10 hours at a time. Bed-dingfield said he didn’t have the greatest appearance and people didn’t feel safe walking by him. Business owners called the police department to complain.

At night, the police depart-ment says it is having problems with young people congregating in parking lots. The teenagers are

not doing anything illegal, but it draws crowds and they are leav-ing black marks from squealing tires, according to Beddingfield.

Another issue mentioned Tuesday was occasional home-less people who camp out on public property.

Council decided for Kanipe, Beddingfield and town attorney Bailey Nager to draft an ordi-nance for council to discuss further next month.

Council members said they won’t prohibit people’s First Amendment rights, but can des-ignate times and areas to protest, such as the issue with people standing on the street with signs.

“Our only issue was that it was stopping traffic on Mills Street,” said Kanipe in talking about the man with the sign. “If it had been on the courthouse lawn it would have been different. We will not stop anyone’s First Amendment right to speak. It’s much more about the obstruction on the sidewalk.”

Sylvia Smith Moore

Sylvia Stewart Smith Moore, wife of George “Tom” Moore, died peacefully at their home in Tryon Estates on March 20, 2011.

She was born on April 23, 1922 in Peoria, Ill., to the late Dorothy Doubleday and Paul Curran Smith. She was the eldest of the three Smith children. The surviving siblings are Elizabeth “Betty” Knopp of Columbus, and Arthur “Parf” Smith of Tryon.

Sy lv i a was a graduate of Duke University, class of l944. She was involved with the student government and president of her soror-ity. She married fellow Duke graduate John A. McDougald of Bayside, N.Y., in l943 and they had two children.

She returned to Tryon in the l950s and while here was in numerous Tryon Little Theatre productions, cast in several leading roles, following a time honored Doubleday/Smith tra-dition for love of the arts. She worked for Betty Sturgis Dress Shop and for Social Services in Hendersonville, N.C.

In l956 she married Edward W. Dodge and lived at “Slick Rock” on White Oak Moun-tain and ran for Polk County Clerk of Court. She and Eddie had three daughters. In l961 they moved to Bayside, Wis., where she became involved with multiple civic organiza-tions and she was president of LaSertoma. In l974 she retired to Flat Rock, N.C., where she was a member of St. John in the Wilderness Episcopal Church.

Sylvia married Tom Moore and added to her “clan of al-ligators” with Tom’s daughter Caroline in l993. They resided on Wilderness Road, and along with the heralded “Wilderness Road Gang” kept Tryon’s

Obituaries mascot, Morris the Horse, in the public eye with helping to maintain and decorate for all the special events in Tryon.

Sylvia’s degree was in his-tory and she used it to help in the preservation of various art shows of local artists. Tom and Sylvia volunteered for Meals on Wheels in Polk County for many years. They were active in the locally famous

Block House races and would roll into the races in their spe-cially constructed Morris truck with family and friends in tow. She was ac-tive in Holy Cross Episcopal Church of Tryon as a member of the choir.

She is survived by her lov-ing husband Tom Moore; son Scott A. McDougald (Brenda) of Nashua, N.H.; daughters Pamela A. McDougald of Try-on; Dorothy Dodge Maynard (Rick) of Virginia Beach, Va.; Janet Dodge Howell of Arden, N.C.; Marguerite Dodge Ker-hulas of Wilmington, N.C., and Caroline Moore Chapman (Austin) of Tryon; grandchil-dren, Frederick Parrish, Melissa Parrish Pittman, Jenny Parrish Galloway, Landon Howell, Christopher Howell, Jessica Maynard, Justin Maynard, Jordan Maynard, Cameron McDougald, Flynn Chapman and nine great-grandchildren.

Memorial services will be held at 2 p.m., Saturday, March 26, 20ll in the Holy Cross Epis-copal Church in Tryon with Father Michael Doty and Father John Zellner officiating.

The family request that do-nations be made to Town of Tryon - Morris the Horse Fund, 301 N. Trade St., Tryon, N.C. 28782 or to Hospice of the Carolina Foothills, 130 For-est Glen Dr., Columbus, N.C. 28722.

a cause greater than our own the PGR there were several motorcycle clubs present, including outlaw clubs like the hells angels. Someone estimated over seven-hundred bikers, many riding two-up, had come together to honor the fallen airman After the funeral, when the procession from the church to the cemetery (about eight miles down the road) was under way, the lead bikes arrived at the cemetery before the last cars in the procession had even left the church. my point in telling you all of this is simple. how did seven hundred fiercely independent bikers, a great many law enforcement officers, military representatives and hundreds of family members and supporters manage to work in concert to honor a fallen airman? We chose to work together for the sake of a common purpose out of mutual respect for a shared

ideal. We rode side by side for a common purpose. We live in challenging times when religious, political, social and cultural ideals can set us at odds with one another and which have the potential of creating destructive conflicts. however, there is a way to transcend any division. When we stand in sympathy for a cause greater than our own preferences and work cooperatively with one another we can do amazing things as families, clubs, churches and communities even under the most difficult of circumstances. When those seven-hundred motorcycles all started up at once in front of the Boulevard Baptist Church – we liberals, conservatives, moderates, outlaws, veterans and all together – someone said you could hear the roar all the way across town. how powerful is that?

Polk softball’s Hrobak perfect versus Mitchellby Daniel Hecht

Perfect. An adjective, accord-ing to Webster, defined as being entirely without fault or defect.

In softball lingo, a perfect game, according to the rules of the Inter-national Softball Federation, is a statistic credited to a pitcher when he/she completes a game and al-lows no runner from the opposing team to reach first base.

Polk junior hurler Jamie Hrobak was perfect Tuesday versus Mitch-ell, and yet seemed unimpressed by the magnitude of her accomplish-ment. When asked how she felt af-ter retiring 18 consecutive Mitchell batters, 16 of them on strikeouts, Hrobak just smiled and replied, “I’m happy,” and then walked back into the home dugout to cheer on Polk’s JV squad.

Only two Lady Mountaineers even managed to put a bat on a Hrobak pitch, with Danielle Rob-inson flying out to right in the first and cleanup hitter Cassie Burleson popping out to short in the fifth. The commanding performance gave Hrobak her 35th career victory and improved her record, as well as that of the Lady Wolverines, to 6-1 on the year, and a perfect 2-0 in the conference.

Polk coach Jeff Wilson was a bit more enthusiastic about Hrobak’s

achievement, noting that Hrobak’s perfect game was just the second he’d been involved with in his long coaching career.

“I’m just really proud of Jamie,” said Wilson. “She’s a hard-working kid who is loved by her teammates because of how genuine she is.”

At the plate, the Lady Wol-verines worked Mitchell pitchers Christina Cormican and Whitney Tipton for eight hits and nine walks on the afternoon. Hrobak led the Polk offensive effort with a single and a double, while Cassie Couch, Brittany Jones, Yancy Pace, Cavin Richards, Casey McDowell and Shayln Brown all contributed base hits to the 10-run, six-inning victory.

The Lady Wolverines face a major challenge today, Thursday, March 24, squaring off against visiting Swain County, the number one ranked 1A team in the state.

“We’ll have our hands full,” said Wilson, noting that the Lady Devils, led by senior pitcher Shelby Parker, average about 15 runs per game and have been to the state championships in Raleigh five years in a row.

“There are three or four teams on our schedule that are really, really good, and for us to be considered really good, we have to beat some of them, and Swain is one of them,”

said Wilson, noting that, while beat-ing Swain won’t affect Polk’s play-off run, the game is an important measuring stick for his young team.

Wilson added that the return of Alyssa Montgomery, Polk’s two-time all-state catcher who has been nursing a sprained ankle, is

a major key to his team’s chances this season.

“We need to get Alyssa healthy, that’s a big factor for us,” said Wilson, adding that Montgomery is “used to getting two or three hits a game, and is ready to get back to playing and contributing.”

Polk, Landrum wage border war on golf courseby JB Wilson

The Polk County men’s golf team squared off against Lan-drum March 21 in what would be the only match-up for both teams against out-of-state foes.

Polk County head coach Craig Culbreath said, “We used to play Chesnee and some other South Carolina teams. I guess with these high gas prices nobody is looking to make long drives.”

Long drives off the tee box, though, were aplenty in today’s match because of intense wind. The breezy conditions made club selection a guessing game for both sides. The Wolverines may have had a leg up on their competition as the match was played at their home course of Tryon Country Club.

Polk sophomore Will Trakas said, “Every hole the wind was

switching up…. No complaints though. It was a nice day.”

A ‘nice day’ may have been an understatement from Trakas.

He was the low scorer from the match, shooting a 37 on nine holes. When asked about his play, Trakas admitted he didn’t even shoot his best.

“I got kind of lucky,” Trakas said. “Off the first tee I hit my drive way left and the monkeys

gave me some help by throwing it out of the trees and into the fairway.”

Trakas helped lead his varsity squad to victory as Polk out-matched Landrum with a team score of 163 against the Cardi-nal’s 182. Polk County will take a couple of days off and return to the links this coming Thursday as they play Madison at Reems Creek.

Carolina Camera Club meets Jan. 11The next meeting of the Caro-

lina Camera Club will be on Tuesday, Jan. 11 at 6:30 p.m. at the Isothermal Community Col-lege in Columbus.

Join the club for a presentation titled “Digital After Dark” pre-sented by Kevin Adams. Adams has been teaching and leading photo tours in North Carolina since the early 1990s and has produced several books that have become valuable tools to many local photographers and outdoor enthusiasts.

Today’s digital cameras give us the ability to make images that we could not have dreamed of back in the film days. Nowhere is this truer than with night pho-

tography. Now we can literally shoot for the stars.

For those who associate night photography only with subjects like fireworks, cityscapes, and street scenes, you’re in for a surprise. In this eye-opening presentation, Kevin will share his techniques for photographing a variety of nighttime subjects, from the ordinary to the “Wow, I never would have thought of that!”

Attendees are advised to use caution before attending this presentation, however. Once you see all the exciting things you can do with your camera at night, you might be losing a lot of sleep from then on.

Letter to the Editor

Rewards help JapanTo the Editor: Like many people I have

been wishing to help the victims in Japan in some way.

My days of being able to go out with a Red Cross Disaster Team are now limited by age and health issues.

Also, since retirement I am on a very modest fixed income. But an e-mail from a corpora-tion I have a “rewards” system

with has come to my rescue. Hilton Corporation sent me in-formation on how I can donate some of the points I have earned with their HHonors program.

Not only can I donate, but they are going to match my donation dollar for dollar. I do not know how many other such point accumulating programs are sponsoring a similar op-portunity, but I urge each of you who belong to any “reward” system to explore and see if you have such an option.

The March fishing reportTemperatures are warming,

days are lengthening, and the fish are coming out of their winter haunts to prepare for the spring spawn.

This is common knowledge to many and this can be seen by the increasing number of anglers on the water.

I dare say a majority of fisher-men do the bulk of their fishing in April and May, mostly due to the easiest fishing of the year.

I want to take a moment and mention some of the opportunities that the North Carolina Wildlife Re-sources Commission has to offer.

The NCWRC spends our li-cense fees and tax dollars accom-plishing a wide range of functions. From boating access ramps and piers, to wildlife management and even special opportunities for disabled outdoorsmen and women.

These opportunities include special privileges for access to game lands, fishing piers and per-mit hunts.

There is one offer that the NC-WRC offers that my family has taken advantage of this past week and that is a lifetime license.

Our daughter Minda’s grandpar-ents bought her a lifetime sports-man license at 5 months of age!

Why so early? Because her dad is a fishing

guide? No. If the license are pur-chased before the age of one, they only cost $200. An annual license for anyone over 16 is $40.

So for the price of 5 years your child has them for life.

You might say that’s a lot of money to spend on something they might not use, true, but how much money do people spend on toys, video games, etc that never get used or used only one time?

Anyway, its something to think about, a good investment if your child has outdoor living in their genes. And check out the opportu-nities the NCWRC offers at www.ncwildlife.org

Lake AdgerReports on Lake Adger are size

not quantity. I haven’t heard of anyone catching numbers on Adger yet, but I have heard and seen pic-tures of some big Largemouth over 8 lb. being caught. There has also been reports of some Trout being caught trolling.

Green RiverJeremy Orr reports the fishing

was very good on the delayed har-vest section of the Green before all the rain. Fish anything from in line spinners, on spinning gear, to San Juan worms, Wooly Buggers, and egg patterns on fly rods.

The general stocked waters are closed the month of March until the first Saturday in April so be sure you are fishing the right section of river marked by the diamond shaped signs along the river.

Rob McComas is a licensed North Carolina fishing guide on Lake Lure and Lake Jocassee in S.C. He has been a guide for 11 years and fishing for more than 30. McComas lives with his wife, Amanda, in Sunny View and runs Robs Guide Service. He can be reached at [email protected].

PAC hike heads to DuPont State ForestPAC Rainbow Falls hikers. (photo submitted)

Hikers are invited to join the Pacolet Area Conservancy (PAC) Friday, March 25 for the third hike of PAC’s Spring Hiking Series, an approximate 5-mile, moderate loop trail in DuPont State Forest to view High Falls, Triple Falls and Hooker Falls.

DuPont State Forest is made up of more than 10,000 acres of forestland containing numerous streams and lakes. There are more than 80 miles of roads and trails within the property that are shared by hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians. The most popular and most visited of the waterfalls on the property are High Falls, Triple Falls and Hooker Falls. These three falls were sites for several of the scenes in the movie “The Last of the Mohicans.”

Hikers should expect to return to the Columbus area around 2 p.m.; however, return time var-

ies due to the number of hikers and the varying pace of the hikers. Hikers should wear ap-propriate clothing and footwear; bring a bag lunch and/or snack and plenty of water. Be sure to bring any personal medication that you may require. In case of inclement weather, contact the PAC office by 8:15 a.m. on the day of the hike to see if the hike will take place.
