County Sheriff BoDeArmond, of Moore County,Texas and headquartered inDumas, isn’t releasing a lot ofinformation about a suspiciousdeath, an apparent homicide, thatoccurred either late Thursdaynight, April 28, or early, Fridaymorning, April 29, in Etter, Texas,about 12 miles north of Dumas.

In an official press release,DeArmond wrote, “The MooreCounty Sheriff’s Office re-ceived a call at 8:15 a.m. April29, of a person appearing to bedeceased at an address Etter,Texas. Upon arrival deputiesconfirmed the white male wasdeceased.

Moore County Sheriff’s Of-fice, Texas Rangers, andDumas Police Dept. began aninvestigation on the suspiciousdeath. The deceased was iden-tified as Roberto G. Villarreal,age 28, of Cactus Texas.”(Cactus is another communitythat adjoins Etter just to thenorth.) ”Later in the investiga-tion it was determined thatVillarreal had died of gunshotwounds. Justice of the PeacePrecinct 2 Sue Simms ordered

Boise City resident, victim inapparent Etter, Texas murderBy C. F. David

an autopsy. This death is beinginvestigated as a homicide,which is still ongoing! There arenot any suspects as of this time.”

Though DeArmond’s pressrelease gives Villarreal’s resi-dence as Cactus, he has beenliving in Boise City.

According to an article inSaturday’s Amarillo Globe-News, written by CherylBerzankis, Villarreal was foundin a trailer home in the 700 blockof Rabbit Lane in Etter. The ar-ticle continues that Linda Venzor,and her father answered a knockon their door on Trosper Laneat about 2 a.m. Venzor said thata man unknown to her was ask-ing to come in and call the po-lice, saying that someone haskilled someone and they want tokill me. Venzor refused entry andthe man fled, then she called 911.Deputies responded to Venzor’scall but couldn’t find the man andleft.

The next morning the trailersrenter called authorities when hereportedly saw a body lying inthe living room of the home. Anambulance responded, and thenDeArmond’s office followed.

Villarreal married KristinGonzalez of Boise City inPlainview, Texas in 2010.

ROTARYGRADUATION

PARTY

By Dana Smith Contribut-ing ReporterPublished with the permis-sion of the DailyO’Collegian of OklahomaState University

Oklahoma State University’sadvertising team will travel toSan Diego in June to competefor the national title after win-ning first place for its campaignat the district level in OklahomaCity.

The team also won BestMedia Plan.

“It was a really exciting ex-perience and something that I’llnever forget,” said team mem-ber Lisa Watkins. “I learnedmore through this competitionthan I’d have learned in any lec-ture.”

Watkins was one of the pre-senters at the competition andthe account executive for theteam.

This year, ad teams weregiven the task of developing afully integrated marketing cam-paign for the national depart-ment store JCPenney.

More specifically, the storeasked teams to create a cam-paign targeted at expanding andretaining its market share amongwomen ages 25 to 34. Eachteam developed a 32-page mar-keting campaign and a 20-minute presentation for the cli-ent.

The ad team started researchon the project in September andemployed surveys and focusgroups to understand the shop-ping habits of their target audi-ence.

It came up with the slogan“You and JCPenney: TogetherAgainst the World.” The teampartnered its advertising cam-paign with Girls Inc., a non-profitorganization that inspires girls tobe “strong, smart and bold,” ac-cording to its website,girlsinc.org.

For the first time, an Oklahoma col-lege will compete at the nationallevel of the American AdvertisingFederation’s Student AdvertisingCompetition.

Kayla Hinds, the daughter of Larry and Jaiman Hinds, a2007 graduate of Keyes High School and a 2011 seniorat OSU, is at the far left, holding the sign.

“What this team did is, theytook a commercial campaignand attached it to a social issuelike I’ve never seen before,”said team adviser Roy Kelsey.

By using JCPenney design-ers such as Cindy Crawford andPenelope Cruz, the teamreached out to their demo-graphic by showing that the de-signers were once young girlsthat had big dreams, too, Kelseysaid.

The campaign also integratedurban and rural demographics,Watkins said.

The ad team consists of 12student members divided intofour distinct areas: creative, pro-duction, promotion and media.

OSU competes in the 10thdistrict, which includes 19 col-leges from Oklahoma andTexas, including the Universityof Oklahoma, University ofTulsa and Texas A&M.

Because it competes in whatthe AAF considers a “mega dis-trict,” two teams from the 10thdistrict will go on to present atnationals. The University ofTexas is the other school that willcompete in San Diego.

The OSU team is now fac-ing the challenge of finding thefunding to compete at the na-tional level in June, Kelsey said.

“It’s just such a tremendousopportunity that we would go ifwe had to walk there,” he said.

Kelsey said they hope to getenough funding to take PistolPete with them to San Diego aswell.

Pistol Pete traveled with theteam to the Skirvin in OKC forthe district competition, and itwas the first time a school hasbrought their mascot, Kelseysaid.

“It was a psyche job and justso cool,” he said.

“And he shot his guns off in-side the Skirvin,” said RayaGreenbaum, a member of theproduction team. “It was likenothing I’ve ever experienced.”

Kayla Mizer, a Junior at Boise City High School, servedthe Oklahoma House of Representatives as a StudentPage, during the week of March 28-31, 2011. Kayla wassponsored by Rep. Gus Blackwell, Chairman of theHouse Appropriation & Budget Subcommittee on Judi-ciary, and served her duties with distinction. Kayla is thedaughter of Billy and Kim Mizer of Boise City, Oklahoma.

It was 51 years ago..do ya remember when???From left, Kalei Taylor, Linda Stewart, Roy Nunn andPresley Dye. May 1960, they were probably seventhgrade ushers for the eighth grade graduation.

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) –U.S. Senators Tom Coburn,M.D. (R-OK) and DianneFeinstein (D-CA) today intro-duced the Ethanol Subsidy andTariff Repeal Act, which willfully eliminate the VolumetricEthanol Excise Tax Credit(VEETC) and fully repeal theimport tariff on foreign ethanol. Cosponsors also include Sena-tors Ben Cardin (D-MD), Rich-ard Burr (R-NC), Jim Webb (D-VA), Susan Collins (R-ME), andJames Risch (R-ID).

”The ethanol subsidy andtariff is bad economic policy, badenergy policy and bad environ-mental policy. As our nationfaces a crushing debt burden,rising gas prices and the pros-pect of serious inflation, continu-ing our parochial ethanol policythat increases the cost of energyand food is irresponsible. I’mpleased to introduce this com-mon sense bill with SenatorFeinstein and will push for its

consideration at the earliest op-portunity,” Dr. Coburn said, not-ing that the bill has been filed asan amendment (#309) to thesmall business bill pending in theSenate.

”Ethanol is the only industrythat benefits from a triple crownof government intervention: itsuse is mandated by law, it is pro-tected by tariffs, and companiesare paid by the federal govern-ment to use it. Ethanol subsi-dies and tariffs sap our budget,they’re bad for the environment,and they increase our depen-dence on foreign oil. It’s timewe end subsidies that we can-not afford and tariffs that in-crease gas prices,” Sen.Feinstein said.

The VEETC is a de factocash subsidy that directs 45cents to refiners for every gal-lon of ethanol they blend withgasoline. The VEETC coststaxpayers approximately $6 bil-

lion a year. If the VEETC sub-sidy is repealed by July 1, 2011,as the Coburn/Feinstein bill callsfor, it will save approximately $3billion this year. Nearly 40 or-ganizations on the left and right,including the refiners who ben-efit from the VEETC subsidy,have called for the eliminationof the subsidy.

The ethanol tariff is com-prised of a .54 cent Most Fa-vored Nation duty and a 2.5 per-cent ad valorem tax. The etha-nol tariff makes our nation moredependent on foreign oil by in-creasing the price of importedethanol.

The Center for Agriculturaland Rural Development at IowaState University recently esti-mated that a one-year extensionof the ethanol subsidy and tariffwould lead to only 427 additionaldirect domestic jobs at a cost ofalmost $6 billion, or roughly $14million of taxpayer money perjob.
