Grant funding could help the Othello Beatifi cation and the city move forward with a signifi cant amount of the lighting half of their Main Street Project.

Last year, the committee and the city teamed together to hire an architect to create

a plan for Main Street. The plan included lights, both pe-destrian and arterial, trees and planters.

A special energy grant through the Washington state Department of Commerce will refocus their attention to just the pedestrian lighting for now.

Local law enforcement of-fi cials put down the razors and picked up donations last month, as they engaged in a race to the end of the hairy road.

Participants from the Ad-ams County Sheriffs Offi ce, the Othello Police Depart-ment, the Ritzville Police De-partment and the Washington State Patrol participated in a local mustache-growing con-test during the month of No-vember.

The contest was part of Mo-vember, a national movement to bring more attention to men’s health issues.

Each participant shaved at the beginning of the month and then were judged on their mustaches Nov. 30. They were awarded between 1 and 10 points in each category, which included fullness, conformity

to face, “wow factor” and how natural looking the facial hair was.

Each participant also got a bonus point, up to 10, for each $20 they raised.

All the funds, $414 in total, will be donated to the Ameri-


Even out of the most tragic of times, hope, peace and for-giveness can prevail. No one knows this better than Peter Loth, one of the youngest Ho-locaust survivors still alive today. Loth shared his inspi-rational message at Othello High School Dec. 3.

From being born in a death camp to brushes with the KKK, the fi rst portion of Loth’s life was fi lled with pain and suffering.

He was born in 1943 at a camp called Stuttof, one of the 1,600 death camps around during the Holocaust.

The only reason he and his mother remained alive is the soldiers holding them captive used them for human experi-mentation and torture, he said.

The pain and suffering to be had by all, from the star-vation to brutal murder, was all around.

It is unlike anything a per-son can even begin to think of, he said.

“You don’t even imagine what suffering is,” he said.

When he was 2 years old, the camp was liberated by the Russians.

The people within the camp fl ed, but Loth’s mother, having been experimented on herself, could not escape with both herself and her young son.

At a train station in Poland, she gave the baby to a Polish woman and asked her to care for him, promising to one day return for the little one.

This woman, Matka, raised him for the next 14 years in a town called Torun, Poland.

They weren’t pleasant years, though. As a boy with papers declaring him a Ger-


The Othello Choral Society helped kick off the Christmas season this weekend, as they presented their annual Christmas Cantata.

The show features choirs of both adults

and children and follows the story of the fi rst Christmas.

This year’s cantata was called “Hope of the Broken World,” created, arranged and orchestrated by Dave Clarke and David T. Clydesdale.

The cantata was just written this year, director Bob Reichert said.

Reichert has been directing for several years and he always chooses a new pro-duction, he said.

This year, he listened to about 10 dif-ferent cantatas before settling on “Hope of the Broken World.”

One thing he liked about the show was

THIS WEEK ON OUR SOAPBOX …

This year, give the most precious gift of allBY DARLA [email protected]

‘Tis the season of giving. Look around — the message is in advertisements everywhere. No matter how hard you try, you can’t miss it.

Prettily wrapped presents aren’t the only thing people give this time of year.

In one weekend in this small town, my family and I had dinner Friday at Pilgrim Lu-theran, lunch Saturday at the Christmas Bazaar and break-fast Sunday morning at the Eagles courtesy of the local fi refi ghters. All these events

were hosted by people giving their time and talent to raise money they could use to help others — a priceless gift.

Sure, I like any meal I don’t have to cook and clean up after as much as the next person, but that’s not why we went (not the only reason, anyhow). T`hese events shows my kids kind-ness in action. It teaches them the power each of us holds to make the world a better place.

One thing that bothered me this weekend is that, largely, the faces don’t change from year to year. No one is getting any younger.

When I chat with other par-

ents, they talk of wanting to get involved but having no time. I get that — sort of. As a single mom with two jobs and two high-needs kids, I know all too well how many hours aren’t in a day.

And yet, my little family fi nds ways to lend a hand that fi t in with our life. Sometimes, it’s in the middle of the night when I should be sleeping. Often, it’s impromtu, like helping with clean up when we’re there at the end of an event. Then there are those times where we support events others work hard to put on (did I mention how much we ate this weekend?).

It doesn’t matter how it hap-pens, it’s just important that it does. The lesson of giving of oneself is as important to kids as the reading, writing and ‘rithmetic they get in school.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying my family does more, gives more or cares more than anyone else — quite the opposite, in fact.

If I can manage this juggling act between employment, par-enting and service, anybody can. Seriously. I’m the world’s worst juggler. If it weren’t for my phone’s calendar telling me where to go and when, we would never get anywhere on time.

Everybody has time to give. The dishes and laundry can wait (a while). We all cut sleep short for far less important reasons. You can do it without fi nding a babysitter.

The time to stop making ex-cuses is now. You may not be able to do everything, but you can do something.

If the event was for your own family, you’d make time. At any time, yours may be the family in need. What if no one helped? What if no one came?

This season, and all year ‘round, give the gift of your time. You may even get some-thing nifty in return.

Protecting yourself from identity theft this season

With the holiday season upon us, central Washingto-nians are fl ocking to stores

and websites to purchase gifts for family and friends. How-ever, cases of identity theft can spoil the season’s goodwill.

According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) – which handles identity theft issues – the most common complaint from consumers in all 50 states is identity theft. In 2009, more than 6,000 Wash-ingtonians were victims of identity theft, ranking our state 17th in the nation for this type of crime.

With many Americans still

out of work and struggling to pay their monthly bills, iden-tity theft can cause even more stress at a time when families are stretched to the limit. While some cases of identity theft are unavoidable by consumers, there are a number of things that can be done to help lower your risk of becoming a victim.

Protect your personal infor-mation by fi nding a safe place for your important documents, such as fi nancial records and Social Security cards. Also, shredding personal documents

and medical information can reduce the risk of your sensi-tive materials being shared.

In addition, as bank state-ments and credit card bills ar-rive each month – particularly those from the holiday shop-ping season – it is important that you carefully monitor them for any suspicious activ-ity. Reviewing credit reports is another important tool in de-tecting identity theft. In 2003, Congress passed a law that gives all Americans access to a free credit report each year.

You can visit www.annual-creditreport.com or call (877) 322-8228 to obtain a free copy of your credit report.

With online shopping be-coming more popular each year, protecting your accounts with complex passwords can help defend your computer and fi nancial records from con-sumer fraud. In addition, the FTC recommends that you not respond to emails asking for personal information and never use a public computer, such as those at libraries, to input sensi-

tive fi nancial information when buying products or services online. For more information about how to protect your per-sonal information online, visit www.onguardonline.gov.

To learn more about identity theft protection and what to do if you are a victim, I encourage you to visit www.consumer.gov or contact the Washington State Offi ce of the Attorney General at (360) 753-6200.

Every year about this time, we compare the commercial airplane sales of Boeing and its European archrival, Airbus.

Over the last decade, the results haven’t worked in Boe-ing’s favor. Airbus has posted higher sales numbers as Boe-ing struggled to get its new 787 into production. However, this year, Boeing, which assembles the bulk of its commercial air-craft in the Puget Sound area, is the clear winner.

Boeing reported 962 orders placed so far in 2012, more than double Airbus’ 437.

For both companies, single-aisle plane sales are pivotal to their success. Boeing’s new 737 MAX is 13 percent more fuel effi cient than any other single-aisle airplane and ac-counted for 860 orders this year.

Fuel effi ciency is a ma-jor selling point for a cash-strapped industry buffeted by high fuel costs. The added good news for Boeing is 787 production is ramping up to more than a dozen planes each month from its Everett and South Carolina assembly lines. The 787 uses 20 percent less fuel than its closest twin-aisle Airbus counterpart.

While things look bright for Boeing, Airbus is not about to throw in the towel. In a move to strengthen its U.S. base, Airbus announced it will in-vest $600 million over the next fi ve years to build its A320 as-sembly plant near Mobile, Ala. It will be its fi rst factory in the United States and Alabama, like South Carolina, is a right-to-work state.

Airbus plans to assemble 40 to 50 A320 jets per year in 2017. The Mobile facility will assemble aircraft from prefab-ricated sections built at Air-bus factories in Germany and France.

Alabama offi cials said the state would provide Airbus with more than $100 million in tax breaks and other incen-tives to support the project. To counter what other states do to attract manufacturers, Wash-ington provides a sales tax ex-emption to manufacturers — and keeping those incentives in place is more important than ever.

The A320 plant is expected to create roughly 1,000 new jobs, a fi gure that includes di-rect Airbus employees, as well as jobs with suppliers. Airbus and the European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company (EADS) currently employ around 1,000 people in the United States, including 200 engineers at an existing tech-nical center in Mobile.

The plan to expand in the United States follows the opening of Airbus’ fi rst non-European assembly line in Tianjin, China, in 2008. That plant now produces 36 A320 planes a year for the Chinese market.

Why are Boeing and Airbus focusing on China? Boeing’s forecast includes 11,450 new passenger jets for Asia in a confi rmation of the region’s transport-intensive growth despite the expansion of high-speed rail networks in China.

Approximately 23,240 air-planes worldwide (68 percent of new deliveries) will be sin-gle-aisle airplanes, refl ecting growth in emerging markets, such as China, and the contin-ued expansion of low-cost car-riers throughout the world.

Because the core of the avia-tion market has now moved from the U.S. and North America to the Asian-Pacifi c market place, other aircraft manufacturers are gearing up to compete. They are especial-ly interested in the single-aisle commercial market, including Commercial Aircraft Corpo-ration of China (COMAC).

Remember that other states and countries want those 85,000 Boeing jobs currently housed in Washington. And while Boeing is performing well today, we must also re-member that its competitors are nipping at Boeing’s heels.

The stakes are high. Market analysts for Airbus in France predict that over the next 20 years, commercial airlines throughout the world will buy about 27,800 new aircraft worth $3.5 trillion, more than doubling the global airliner fl eet.

So, while the news from Boeing is a welcome Christ-mas present for our state and our economy, we cannot af-ford to be complacent.

As Congress faces tough

questions about our fi scal fu-ture, we also have a unique opportunity to advance bipar-tisan energy policy that will create jobs. Putting Americans to work by expanding the na-tion’s access to clean, afford-able hydropower is a solution on which the House of Rep-resentatives already found consensus. Indeed, when we passed the Hydropower Regu-latory Effi ciency Act earlier this year, we acted unanimous-ly — the only example of una-nimity on an energy issue in this Congress. That is why we urge the Senate to take up and pass this hydropower legisla-tion before the end of the year.

Hydropower has provided the U.S. with affordable, reliable, sustainable energy for over 130 years. Today, hydropower makes up two-thirds of the na-tion’s renewable-electricity sup-ply and regions that get a ma-jority of their electricity from hydropower have, on average, the lowest electricity bills in the nation. Hydropower’s fl exibil-ity contributes to a more stable electric grid and enables inte-gration of additional variable renewable resources.

The Department of Energy reports that more than 12 giga-

watts of capacity could be in-stalled at our nation’s existing non-powered dams. That’s the equivalent of 12 nuclear power plants. In fact, only 3 percent of the country’s 80,000 dams currently have generation fa-cilities. Many developers are also exploring smaller applica-tions, including construction in engineered irrigation conduits.

The potential of hydropower to create jobs is also enormous. A 2010 study conducted by the National Hydropower Associa-tion revealed that by utilizing currently untapped resources, the U.S. could add approxi-mately 60,000 megawatts of new hydropower by 2025, cre-ating up to 700,000 jobs in the process. It is estimated that for every megawatt of new small hydropower installed at exist-ing dams without hydropower, 5.3 jobs are created (including direct, indirect and induced jobs). With jobs still scarce for too many Americans, we should be looking at every op-portunity to put Americans back to work.

All of these factors make clear that Congress should be working to increase Ameri-cans’ access to hydropower. That is why we came together to collaborate on the HREA. It facilitates the development of small hydropower and conduit projects and studies the fea-sibility of a streamlined two-

year permitting process for other low-impact development. With minimal authorizations that are completely offset, the bill adds no costs to taxpayers.

The unanimous passage of our bill in the House was a bright spot of bipartisan coop-eration this year. Ten members of Congress from both parties joined us as sponsors of the bill. Both the National Hydro-power Association, the trade association that promotes the development of our hydropow-er resources, and American Rivers, the largest advocacy group dedicated to protecting the health of our nation’s wa-terways, testifi ed in support of the legislation.

But since passage, the HREA has stalled in the Sen-ate. Without immediate Senate action, the 113th Congress will have to spend additional time and resources to reintroduce and advance policy we’ve al-ready reached agreement on — time that would be better spent focusing on other im-portant energy-related issues. The time is now for the Senate to approve these hydropower regulatory improvements. We must not pass up this opportu-nity for bipartisan energy leg-islation when the fi nish line is in sight.

Senate should pass hydropower improvements

complete all parts of the project for just two blocks of Main Street.

Just in the past month or so, the Beauti-fication Committee came to the city and requested $85,000 to get started on the below ground portion of the lights.

Now, they are applying for this grant, which could give them up to $500,000 for the project. The grant funding is part of $38

million set aside this year by the state leg-islature for energy cost-saving money for higher education and local governments.

The reason they can apply for this grant is the lighting they choose will feature energy-efficient LED lights. The lights will conserve energy and end up saving Othello money.

So, with the grant funding, the group

would be able to put in the pedestrian lighting they chose all the way down Main Street, creating a huge difference, chair Lynette Caruthers said.

“This will get us started in a very, very big way,” she said.

The pedestrian lights will not only offer a brighter atmosphere, they will give the city a place to add decorations, banners and Christmas lights in years to come, she said.

The posts are beautiful, with double drop pendant lights and stresscrete du-rable bases, Caruthers said.

“This will impact the look of Main Street in a majorly positive way,” she said.

Because the grant focuses on the en-ergy efficiency of the pedestrian lights, the other portions of the project, like the planters, trees and arterial lights, will be put on hold for now.

The application is due in the first weeks of January.

The city council will discuss the issue during their Jan. 7 meeting.

In addition to the calculations of how much money energy-efficient lighting would save the city, one consideration is community support.

The city and mayor drafted a letter re-questing support from 500 organizations and individuals throughout the area, city administrator Ehman Sheldon said.

These individuals and businesses, and anyone else who wants to help, were asked to consider the project. If they would like to do so, they can write either a letter of support or make a monetary donation to the project.

These letters and dollar amounts will be included in the final application to the Department of Commerce.

The city must also put in money toward the project for the application.

This donation will probably be around $80,000 to $100,000, Sheldon said.

The exact dollar amount will be deter-mined at the Jan. 7 meeting.

For anyone who wishes to comment, the meeting begins at 7 p.m. in Othello City Hall, 500 East Main Street.

The Public Works Depart-ment of the City of Othello would like the citizens to know some of their policies when it comes to snow remov-al on city’s streets.

In the event of a major snow-storm, the police department will contact Public Works when two inches of snow has fallen on the streets. They will also contact Public Works if there are areas that are par-ticularly dangerous and may need salting in the event of icy roads. Otherwise, crews will be checking and salting the streets on a regular basis.

When the crew is called out during a snowstorm, they will plow all the streets to the curbs, starting with all arterials, and then school bus routes. After clearing the ma-jor streets, they will then at-tempt to clear as many of the residential streets as possible. Sometimes, the snow falls faster than they can clear and this may mean the crew will have to go back to the arte-rial streets to get them clear,

before they’ve finished with the residential streets. Arte-rial streets have priority over residential streets as they must be kept clear in order for emer-gency vehicles and other traf-fic to get through safely.

Public Works asks the citi-zens of Othello to help them make snow plowing as safe and efficient as possible by keeping their vehicles parked off the streets and in their driveway, if possible. The same holds true for garbage cans, basketball hoops and other debris. Please do not blow or push snow or yard debris onto the streets, as it blocks the street drains. Keep-ing yard waste picked up and out of the streets will be help-ful in allowing the gutters to drain properly when the snow is melting or during rain storms.

The city appreciates the help with minimizing flooding is-sues.

Thank you from Public Works and have a great and safe winter.

As the holiday season ap-proaches, Christmas lights and decorations are going up all over town.

The Greater Othello Cham-ber of Commerce noticed and wanted to get involved.

They are hosting a special contest for the businesses of Othello. Commercial build-ings can be decorated between now and Dec. 20 for a chance to win a special prize.

First, second and third place will be given out, with a $100 prize for the top decoration.

To submit a business for consideration, drop off the business name and address at the Chamber office, 33 E. Larch St. The judging will take place Dec. 20.

Shawn Logan, Chamber president, talked about the contest during the city council meeting Dec. 3.

The Chamber will also join

with The Othello Outlook and The Factory Pizzeria to offer an evening with Santa Dec. 13 from 4 to 7 p.m. at The Fac-tory. The event will promote shopping locally, Logan said.

Also at the meeting, mayor Tim Wilson talked about the volunteers who really kept the town going this year.

A city cannot flourish with-out voluntary help from its citi-zens, he said. It is important to be involved in the community. Even small things can make a big difference and help a huge number of people, he said.

He honored multiple people at the meeting.

The first group was Rob Simmons, Timm Taff and Fer-nando Moreno, who started the Community Diner pro-gram. The three men volunteer their time and culinary skills to help local nonprofits on the second Sunday of each month.

Since they started doing the diner, they have helped 25 or-ganizations and raised more

than $22,000.The next Community Diner

will be Dec. 9 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Othello Senior Center, 755 N. Seventh Ave.

Wilson also honored Merritt and Charlette Johnson, who have been residents of Othello for 42 years.

They started helping out as soon as they moved into the community because they wanted to give back to the town, Wilson said.

They have been involved with the Othello Commu-nity Christmas Baskets for 36 years, both volunteered on the fair board and with the Eagles. M. Johnson also volunteered with the Adams County Fire Department and more.

It isn’t just people who do the work voluntarily who get recognition, though.

The city also thanked em-ployees for their service.

Bonnie Valdez was applaud-ed for her 10 years of service. She was hired in accounts pay-

able in 2002.Former finance director

Mike Bailey was also thanked, as he retires after six years with Othello.

He is a hard worker and al-

ways brave enough to stand up, apologize and fix it if he makes a mistake, Wilson said.

Bailey has been a strong as-set for the community and the city wishes him the best of

luck in his future, Wilson said. The city will hold a farewell

potluck for Bailey Dec. 7 from noon to 1:30 p.m. at Othello City Hall, 500 East Main St.

man Jew, he did not do well in Poland.

He was repeatedly taken from Matka, moved from or-phanage to orphanage and even spent time in prison.

Now, all his teeth are false, after being struck in the mouth with the butt of a gun.

At one point, he was put in front of a wall to be killed, ex-ecution style.

Matka offered up herself instead and was raped by the man who had his gun in Loth’s mouth, but Loth escaped with his life.

In 1958, he received word from his mother and made his way to the United States-occu-pied Germany to be reunited with her. She had escaped the death camp and Poland and married an American soldier.

While in Germany, he had to deal with bullies because he was greatly underweight and did not speak the language.

Loth, his mother, stepfather and two stepsisters moved to the United States the next year, where they were sent to Geor-gia. Things did not go well there, though, when the Ku Klux Klan abused the mem-bers of the family.

Then, the family moved again, this time to Kansas. After while, Loth’s stepfather became abusive and Loth ran away from home, settling in Missouri. He was rescued from the street and introduced to new ideas, religions and cul-

ture. He was 18 at this time, and learned about art, things he could do and how to dance to rock and roll music, he said.

Then, he went into military service.

He was married and di-vorced a couple times before marrying his current wife. Combined, they have eight children. They live in Florida but travel often for speaking engagements.

For many years, he did not share with his children what had happened to him in his youth. He didn’t want them to know he was raped, beaten and tortured, he said.

Then, when reconnecting with his long lost family, he discovered his mother had died. Her last wish was that her ashes be brought to the death camp, so she could be with the other thousands of women who lost their lives.

Loth and his family visited the camp, one of the most dif-fi cult things he’s ever done. In fact, he suffered a massive heart attack upon returning to the United States, as the stress and trauma of the camp was just too much to handle. As he said goodbye to his mother, he realized something.

“I couldn’t stay silent any-more,” he said.

In 200, he started publicly speaking about what he’s gone through and the forgiveness he’s managed to learn.

Forgiveness is not easy and

for a long time, Loth held a lot of hate in his heart, he said. However, keeping bitterness around helps no one and it is important to let go of the hate.

“It will set you free,” he said.He has since spoken in more

than 50 countries, at schools, military bases and more.

Education is exceptionally important, he said. The only way to make sure history does not repeat itself is to make sure people know what hap-pened and what they can do to keep it from happening again.

“I got myself educated, you can do the same,” he said.

Learning about the death camps of the Holocaust can be tragic, for example, but it’s important to know that it hap-pened so nothing like this ever happens again, he said.

“We have to be careful what we do to each other,” Loth said.

Loth has been speaking for many years and can see a di-rect impact on people, he said. He receives hundreds of let-ters from people thanking him for speaking and sharing with them his message.

In one particular case, a young women came up to him after a show at a high school. The young woman was incred-ibly unhappy. She confessed she had been raped and was without love in her home, causing her to turn to gangs to provide a sense of family.

He looked at her and told her

to give up the anger and the hate, to go to school and focus on the good she can do in her life.

Then, a few years later, he spoke at a university.

Someone approached him after the talk. Soon, he dis-covered it was the same young woman. She had given up the path her life was on and fo-cused instead on education.

It is stories like that that keep Loth speaking, he said.

He is happy with his life now, he said. He gets to help people and just enjoy life. He has learned to do things like fl y planes and build a house with his own hands, he said. Education has certainly made his life better.

Loth will be joined by other inspirational speakers and a hip hop worship group dur-ing a special free event Dec. 7. The event will begin at 7 p.m. at the Wallenstein Theater at Big Bend Community College, 7662 Chanute St., Moses Lake.

One of the speakers includes Bradley Stewart, who was born in South Africa. Born with ce-rebral palsy, he was an object of ridicule for many years. He harbored hate in his heart until he had to deal with his father’s brutal murder, he said, which helped him learn about for-giveness and letting go.

From Christmas wreaths to scarves, wooden toys to yum-my treats, the annual Delta Upsilon annual Christmas ba-zaar at Othello High School Dec. 1 had a little something for everyone.

The bazaar has been going on for several decades, Joey Gardner, with Delta Upsilon, said.

This year was defi nitely a success.

There was a great turnout of both shoppers and vendors this year, Gardner said.

In fact, the vendors signed up in advance this year. Every spot was full and there was a waiting list for a full three weeks before the bazaar hap-pened. Each person paid for their space.

The money goes into two scholarship funds. The fi rst goes along with other Beta groups and is given to a gradu-ating high school senior.

Then, the Delta Upsilon group has also started a spe-cial scholarship for students between kindergarten and sixth grade. The funds go to help with extracurricular ac-tivities the student would not normally be able to afford, anything from music or art classes to paying the registra-tion fee for a sport.

They chose to help younger kids because those students can’t go out and get jobs of their own, Gardner said.

Overall, the event was a suc-cess, she said.

“Thanks everyone who came, we had a great turnout,” Gardner said.

cantata was performed at Mc-Farland Middle School. It was a pretty big adjustment to the new space, Reichert said.

Overall, things went very well, Reichert said.

“It was a great perfor-

mance,” he said.His wife Donna directed the

children’s choir and did a phe-nomenal job, he said.

The cantata will hold a fi nal performance 3 p.m. Dec. 9 at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic

Church, 200 N. Gale Road, Moses Lake.

DVDs and CDs of the per-formance are also available. Contact Donna Reichert at 488-5597 for more information.

The auditions will be Dec. 7 and 8 at McFarland Middle School, room 207.

The Dec. 7 audition period will be from 6 to 8 p.m. and Dec. 8, they will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The musical fi rst debuted in the 1950s and follows the clas-sic tale of Cinderella, a woman

forced into a life of servitude by her stepmother after her father dies. As she deals with her evil stepmother and step-sisters, she dreams of living a better life.

At the same time, in the castle, the prince is turning 21. His parents are throwing him a ball so he can fi nd a wife, but

he is resistant to the idea.Cinderella receives an invi-

tation to the ball but is forbid-den to attend by her stepmoth-er. Her fairy godmother steps in and transforms her into a princess, allowing her to go to the party.

While there, she meets and falls in love with the prince.

They are separated and he must fi nd her again, with only the help of one glass slipper she left behind. The two go on to live happily ever after.

The primary characters in the show are Cinderella, the prince, the king and queen, the king’s herald, the fairy god-mother and the stepfamily.


There may be rumors of a ghost at The Old Hotel Art Gallery but the Christmas spirit has arrived, too.

The gallery hosted their Christmas open house Dec. 1, featuring several decorations, a bake sale and the work of lo-cal artists.

They have an open house each year, manager Sally Laufer said. This year went very well.

They almost completely sold out of goods at their bake sale and several people stopped in to take care of a few choice items on their Christmas lists.

Sales brought in several hundred dollars, Laufer said. While they weren’t quite as high as she hoped, the day was

certainly a success. Also at the event was De-

cember’s featured artist Brit-tany Stromberg. The local artist has other work displayed around the hotel but now is her time to shine in the front entry.

There is also still some work left up from pencil artist, and November’s featured artist of the month, Karen Reffett.

A reception will be held for her at The Old Hotel Dec. 15 from 6 to 8 p.m. Only those people 21 or older may attend, as wine will be served.

Now is the time to shop lo-cal and pick up some hand-crafted items for Christmas, Laufer said.

The Old Hotel is open from 10 a.m to 5 p.m. every Tuesday to Saturday. It is located at 33 East Larch St.

After a lapse of eight years, the Junior Miss Program has once again come to Othello. The name, however, has been changed to Distin-guished Young Women.

Distinguished Young Women of Othello is an official local preliminary of Distinguished Young Women, a national scholarship program that promotes and rewards scholarship, leader-ship and talent in young women. In addition to earning scholarships for college, those who participate in the Distinguished Young Women program develop friendships, self-confidence and other life skills that pave the way for future success. The Distinguished Young Women ex-perience is open to every eligible young woman and there is no fee to participate.

The program emphasizes scholastic achieve-ment and qualities of growth and character in each young women participating. The purpose is to recognize, reward and encourage excel-lence in young women.

Brooke Roylance is our current Distin-guished Young Woman. She was able to run with the Royal City program participants in the spring, but not against them. Each school can have their own DYW, so Brooke had to score a required amount of points in order to repre-sent our community and compete in the state competition.

We are now planning for our local program, which will be held March 2, 2013. At this time, we are seeking participants for the program. Young Women need to be high school juniors. In addition, participants must be a legal citizen of the United States, have never been married and have never been pregnant.

Participants in any Distinguished Young Women program will prepare to compete in all of the following categories:

* Scholastics (20 percent of overall score) A panel of five scholars, counselors and oth-

ers familiar with high school transcript evalu-ation review and score a participant’s high school academic record and test scores.

* Interview (25 percent of overall score) Judges evaluate a participant’s personality,

her ability to relate to others, her maturity and her ability to express herself during a 10 minute personal interview.

* Talent (25 percent of overall score)Judges evaluate a participant’s performing

arts talent during a 90-second presentation on-stage in front of an audience. Judges look for

technical ability, appropriateness of selection, stage presence and execution.

* Fitness (15 percent of overall score)Judges evaluate a participant’s overall physi-

cal stamina, coordination, agility and flexibility during a choreographed group aerobic routine. Each participant has an individual spotlight during the routine.

* Self-expression (15 percent of overall score) Judges evaluate a participant’s grace, poise,

demeanor, carriage and posture and speaking ability. The group segment incorporates move-ment about the stage. Each participant will speak on a topic provided.

Roylance has enjoyed the experience that Distinguished Young Woman has provided her in developing skills in interview, talent, leader-ship and presenting herself in a professional, poised manner in any given situation. She has participated in parades in Wenatchee, Moses Lake, Othello and Royal City. She also spent a week in Pullman in August participating in the state Distinguished Young Woman Program where she won a $250 scholastic award.

The young women named Othello Distin-guished Young Woman and runners up will be awarded college scholarships and have the opportunity to represent Othello at various pa-rades and activities.

If you are interested in participating, contact Wendy Risenmay via email ([email protected]) or by phone 488-2442.

The 2013 Othello Sandhill Crane Festival committee is proud to announce the winner of their annual art contest.

This year’s winner, Xengy-eng Xiong, will receive $500. Her original artwork will be featured on festival’s bro-chures and posters.

Xiong’s artwork is inspired by traditional origami cranes.

“I knew one of (the commit-tee’s) main goals was to attract a wide range of audience, so I wanted to make the poster modern,” she said. “That’s how I ended up with a very geometric and clean layout de-sign for the poster.”

Xiong is a graphic design major at Eastern Washington

University.“My capstone class was do-

ing the poster design as a proj-ect — and it just happened to be a contest, as well,” she said. “I was ecstatic that I won …. had a lot of fun doing the proj-ect and did a few different ren-ditions — I wasn’t expecting to win, I just wanted to portray the kind of work I would want to showcase in my portfolio.”

Xiong used computer soft-ware to build the image for the poster.

The Othello Sandhill Crane Festival will be held April 5 to 7 next spring. Biologists, ge-ologists, birders, local farmers, authors and historians will be leading tours and lectures at

the event. The theme for next year’s

festival will be “Migration” in honor of the dozens of bird species that travel through central Washington every spring and fall.

The Othello Sandhill Crane Festival is a nonprofit event chaired by an all-volunteer committee. Proceeds gener-ated by the event go toward providing the following year’s festival activities.

For more information, please visit www.othellosandhill-cranefestival.org. Be sure to “like” the festival’s Facebook page for the latest information on speakers and events.

Got a case of the blahs? Winter may be at fault, when Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a form of depression, is most common.

But don’t spend the season sad. Try these techniques to boost your mood. The best part? They work any time of year:

• Get the right amount of sleep. Too much or too little shut-eye can contribute to de-pression.

• Eat right for mental health. Studies have linked diets low in selenium and omega-3 fatty acids with poorer moods and depression. Eat plenty of fish, beans, lean meats, low-fat

dairy and nuts.• Take a daily walk for ex-

ercise and fresh air. Both are important for good mental health.

More tips to combat season-al blues are available at www.nmha.org.

In memory of…Eloisa Martinez

Garza1937 – 2012

Eloisa Martinez Garza was born Aug. 30, 1937, to Plutarco y Natividad Martinez in San Benito, N.L. Mexico. She mar-ried Rafael S. Garza, the love of her life, Jan. 11, 1955. They were blessed with five children. After migrating to the United

States and working as a laborer and educating her children, they settled in Othello in 1956.

Merritt Johnson’s eyes still mist up when he recalls the amount of gener-osity the Othello community showed to the Othello Christmas Basket Pro-gram last year. “It was overwhelming how many people helped,” he said. That help amounted to a record of 170 baskets filled with toys, warm cloth-ing and all the trimmings for a holi-day feast, delivered to needy families in the area. Merritt and other basket program organizers are hoping that generosity will continue for this year, because the need is even greater. “With the way the economy has been going, I think we’re going to have even more demand for the baskets,” Merritt’s brother Richard said.

*****This year’s Festival of Lights pa-

rade will take place Friday beginning at 7 p.m. Immediately following the parade will be the annual Christmas carnival at Othello High School. Each child will receive a free candy cane from Santa Claus. There will be lots of candy and prizes. Enter to win a six-foot stocking filled with toys for Christmas.

*****The numbers are on the side of the

Othello High School wrestling team this year. The Huskies have the talent, depth and experience to compete for the CWAC South Division title, and then the district, regional and, maybe, state championships. It’s not as if the Huskies are voyaging into uncharted territory. They were the district and

regional champs last season and took second in the division. But Othello coach Ruben Martinez admits the Huskies were still a young team at heart. “We had a lot of kids who were inexperienced and came through for us in the lower seeds at the district and regional tournaments,” Martinez said. “But when we got to the state tourna-ment, their inexperience showed when they came up against tougher compe-tition.” He thinks this year will be dif-ferent as the Huskies return six state veterans and an alternate.

Twenty years agoDec. 2, 1992

The decorations are up, the parade route is planned and shoppers are preparing for an onslaught. The only thing remaining is for Santa Claus to arrive. Othello’s annual Christ-mas opening, for the first time fea-turing a parade, will begin at 6 p.m. this Friday, Dec. 4. Music, the offi-cial lighting of the town’s Christmas tree, free hot chocolate and candy canes and browsing and shopping at local stores are all on the evening’s schedule.

*****A breakfast benefiting the Othello

Community Christmas Baskets charity is planned for Sunday, Dec. 13, and vol-unteers and donations are being sought. Spearheaded by the Othello Volunteer Firefighters’ Association, the dinner baskets project has gained the Othello Kiwanis Club’s pledge to help box the food before delivery to needy families Dec. 19. But more volunteers and dona-

tions of food and money are needed to make the project a success.

*****The Othello High School girls bas-

ketball team swept three quarter wins in jamboree play at Warden Saturday. The Huskies dominated the Moses Lake JVs 25-4, scrambled past Royal 9-6 and then polished off Warden 20-6. Senior point guard Erin Branden-burg had 15 points and sophomore post Mandi Keele had 13 to lead the Huskies in scoring.

Othello Community Festivals members hope to raise community support to do battle at the Dec. 13 Othello City Council meeting. Festi-vals is pushing for $3,000 they say is needed to continue the groups’ float program. Without that money, the members claim, there will be no float representing Othello in 1983. “The bottom line is, if we don’t get it, we won’t have a float,” Sharon Christen-son, Community Festivals president, said.

*****The Othello Community Schools

advisory council will recommend to the Othello School Board that bids for separate transportation and nutrition programs for local senior citizens be dropped this year. Tommie Tindell, chairman of the council, announced the decision following a special meet-ing with Othello Senior Citizens Club members and representatives of the community schools and school board.

Forty years agoNov. 30, 1972

Two remaining members of the Port of Othello board will be faced with filling a vacancy in their ranks following a resignation announced Wednesday by commissioner Guy Powers. Under law, the remaining board members, Erhart Meyer and Ted Muscott, will appoint a successor for Powers.

*****George M. Roper, director of the

Community Orchestra, announced Monday that, due to a lack of interest, “The Messiah” will not be performed this year.

G.A. Dyke, Milwaukee Crop agent from Spokane, spoke to members of the Othello Chamber of Commerce at their regular meeting last Thursday on the benefits to be had for the area with the securing of a sugar beet re-finery. Dyke reported on the Western Beet Growers meeting held in Fargo, N.D., this summer. He pointed out that the chances of obtaining such an industry would be very good when the land in the vicinity comes under water by 1956.

Vehicles and deer can be a lethal combination on Wash-ington roads. As the weather gets colder, you face a greater risk of collisions as deer and other wildlife migrate from the mountains and dart across roads and highways.

More deer-vehicle accidents occur between October and December than any other time of the year. The Washington Department of Transporta-tion reports that, annually, more than 1,100 wildlife-ve-hicle collisions are reported to the Washington State Patrol (WSP). The collisions cause

1,200 injuries and average two fatalities each year.

The Insurance Information Institute estimates there are 1.6 million deer-vehicle col-lisions nationwide each year resulting in approximately 200 occupant deaths, tens of thousands of injuries and over $3.6 billion in vehicle damage. The average deer-vehicle auto claim is $3,100.

“Deer-vehicle collisions can cause significant damage to vehicles and serious injury to drivers and passengers,” Karl Newman, NW Insurance Coun-cil president, said. “Using cau-

tion and staying alert can save your life and eliminate the need for costly vehicle repairs.”

Your Auto Insurance policy will pay for damage to your ve-hicle, less the deductible, if you hit a deer or any other animal, provided you have optional comprehensive coverage.

NW Insurance Council of-fers the following defensive driving tips to help you avoid deer while on the road:

* Be attentive from sunset to midnight and the hours just before and after sunrise. These are the highest-risk periods for deer-vehicle collisions.

* Drive with caution when moving through deer-crossing zones, in areas known to have a large deer population and in areas where roads divide agri-cultural fields from forestland.

* Deer seldom run alone. If you see one deer, others may be nearby.

* When driving at night, use high-beam headlights when there is no oncoming traffic.

* Brake firmly when you no-tice a deer in or near your path and stay in your lane. Many serious crashes occur when drivers swerve to avoid a deer and hit another vehicle or lose

control of their car.If you have questions about

coverage, contact your insur-ance agent or company. For

more information, call the NW Insurance Council at (800) 664-4942 or visit www.nwinsurance.org.

The Huskies faced their first challenge of the season Nov. 27, winning both their games against 1A schools Warden and Wahluke at a basketball jamboree hosted at Pete Tagarres Gymnasium. Second-year head coach Clyde Woods said getting these two wins early in the season could prove to be a big confidence booster for a team finishing last season without a win.

“Last year, we hung our heads,” Woods said. “But things like this can build con-fidence and we’re just going to take it step by step.”

Their first step in improving on the season came with a 19-11 victory over the Wahluke Warriors during a 10-minute game. At one point, the game was tied at 11, but Woods and the Huskies shifted the de-fense into high gear by bring-ing out the full court press. This led to an eight-point scor-ing spree by Othello and their first win of the night.

Woods has talked about his

hopes of offseason training paying off and felt this per-formance was a good indica-tor they’ve taken a step in the right direction and worked out some of the nerves a team can face during their first outing of a season.

“When we got started, we had a little bit of first game jitters,” Woods said. “Once we started to shoot the ball and make a couple shots, the basket appeared to get bigger. It was almost like we were throwing a beach ball into a lake at times.”

In their second victory, the Huskies took control over the Warden Cougars and went on to a 24-10 final score, led by seniors Kimberly Bullis and Stephanie Tolley.

“Tolley’s shooting has im-proved immensely from where we were last year and a big part of that is just playing through the summer,” Woods said. “Bullis … was aggressive on defense and going hard to the bucket on offense.”

Woods thought the defense played well but identified some problem areas he would like

to work on before the regular season goes into full swing.

“We’ve got to work on box-ing out and rebounding,” Woods said. “We did a pretty good job of moving our feet on defense, but then for what-ever the reason may be, we’d get our hands in there and pick up a foul – especially in this last game. I think most of their points came from the foul line.”

For Woods, these two games are just the start and the Hus-kies will face tougher chal-lenges down the road. He’s looking to continue improving and wants the team to set goals to win more games like this.

“Whether we win or lose, we just want to play hard and we just want to play with respect for the game,” Woods said.

Woods is happy with the girls’ start and the fact they were able to come out with a couple wins shows how far the team has come from last year.

“We know we have things to work on, but we also know we are better than we were last year at this time,” Woods said.

Huskie squad picks up a win against Warden in jamboree


A total of four Huskie wres-tlers placed in the top three of their weight divisions during the 2012 Bob Mars Invita-tional held in Kennewick Sat-urday, Dec. 1. Othello came in seventh overall with 17 total wins for the day.

In the 106-pound weight class, junior Isaiah Barrera earned a first-place finish, while his teammate Lucas Garza also finished in first in the 132-pound class. Se-nior Derek Gilbert earned himself a second-place finish in the 220-pound class and sophomore Manny Martinez finished in third place for the 126-pound class.

Othello brought nine wres-tlers to the tournament and

head coach Ruben Martinez was happy with the way they performed. Martinez said the guys were looking for some competition and despite hav-ing an incomplete team, were able to find some and identify a few areas to improve on be-fore their next match.

“I was happy, my staff was happy,” Martinez said. “To have that type of perfor-mance this last weekend will give us a boost and it will energize our team this year. We thought we’d finish in the middle of the pack; actually, we did better than what we expected.”

Barrera won three total matches in the day, defeating wrestlers from Quincy, Moses Lake and Pendleton, Ore., on the way to earning his title. Martinez said he performed

well against some strong op-ponents.

“He wrestled a couple of tough kids really well and was able to get in the finals and win the championship match fairly easily,” Martinez said. “He had a good day.”

Garza went 4-0 in the tour-nament and Martinez felt his opponents might have been surprised by his performance on the day.

“He was our only state placer that we took,” Marti-nez said. “I think they missed that. When they see the kids, they missed that he was a state placer so they were going ‘who is this guy?’ But, he was legit and he ended up having a couple of close matches but was able to pull it out when he needed to.”

Wrestlers seventh in first tournament of season


The boys picked up their first win against Warden, 14-12, at a jamboree hosted at Othello High School on Tues-day, Nov. 27. The varsity bas-ketball team lost their game prior to that, dropping a game against the Wahluke Warriors 15-20.

Before the season began Tuesday, first-year head coach Dave Herrud said defense would be the Huskies’ prior-ity for the year and the two 10-minute games they played

at the jamboree gave Othello a chance to see their new phi-losophy in action.

The Huskies came out with a zone full court pressure de-fense throughout both games, which led to a few turnovers and easy buckets, but Herrud identified a few things they’ll need to address before the regular season begins.

“We had some breakdowns on defense. Some kids were getting driven on, which shouldn’t have happened,” Herrud said. “We need to maybe break things down a little bit more defensively – I

might have tried to do too many things tonight.”

Despite the win, Herrud thought the team may have been rusty considering about half of the varsity team started late due to the Huskie football team’s playoff run. But the coach was happy to have this early opportunity to work out what could use some work.

“It’s just good to have a jam-boree to see the areas we need to work on in a game type situation,” Herrud said. “We’ll just get better and better as we continue to play.”

Ladies take on first challenge of seasonBy Erik [email protected]

The Huskie girls wrestling team traveled with the boys Saturday, Dec. 1, to compete in the Bob Mars Invitational where they faced their first competition of the season. The team didn’t get to participate in the tournament but were able to win 23 times in mixed matches and pick up some valuable experience.

Head coach JJ Martinez was happy with the way his team came out and performed in Ken-newick. He was especially pleased with how

the majority of the team won matches during the day, including some of the younger wres-tlers.

“The new freshmen, they came out looking great,” Martinez said.

Following in the footsteps of team leaders like Allesha Reyes, Tatum Sparks and Julissa Valenciano, freshman wrestlers, such as Lexy Garza, Heather Fitting and Maria Aubrey, came out in an impressive fashion, Martinez said.

Gilbert, who is wrestling at the high school level for the first time, also showed some talent in his class after going 3-1. Martinez sees him as be-ing a tremendous asset for the Huskies this season.

“It was pleasing to see him get into the finals and he should really give us a boost because that was a weight we were going to be missing throughout the year,” Marti-nez said.In Martinez’s opinion, the

Huskies have gotten off to a strong start and following this week, he suspects the team will be at full strength after completing eligibility re-quirements before their home

match Friday, Dec. 7. The fol-lowing day, the Huskies will be hosting a tournament start-ing at 10 a.m. in the Leonard Schutte Invitational and Mar-tinez thinks their lineup will be strong.

“We’re right on target with our plan and where we want to be,” Martinez said.

Othello will be facing off against Kettle Falls, Prosser and Stanwood beginning at 7 p.m. Friday and Martinez said the kids are looking for some good competition.

“It (the lineup) looks pret-ty solid,” Martinez said. “I wouldn’t want to wrestle us this Friday.”

got and what they’re learn-ing as first-year wrestlers,” he said. “I was really proud.”

For the veteran wrestlers, Martinez saw they went out looking to build on the success they found by the end of last season.

“Our veterans … looked amazing,” Martinez said. “That’s our quote of the sea-son: ‘we’re on a mission.’ Those girls show they haven’t stopped from the state tourna-ment, they have high expecta-

tions.”Part of those expectations

is the team’s goal of making a big impact in this season’s state playoff picture.

“Their goal is to bring some state hardware home,” Marti-nez said. “They’re expecting nothing less.”

As of this week, the team has 20 members, which is the most the sport has had in its history. One of the key ar-eas Martinez thinks the team needs to work on is building

up the experience the younger girls have on the mat.

“Right now, with the new girls, it’s just a lack of mat time,” Martinez said. “They’re so new to the sport, as they keep getting more matches they’re just going to get bet-ter and better until they get the feel of the sport.”

This coming weekend should give the girls some of the time Martinez thinks will lead to further success. Friday, the girls will take on

Stanwood and Sunnyside at home starting at 5 p.m. The next morning, they’ll travel to Connell where they’ll face some good competition from mostly 1A schools starting at 10 a.m.

“We’re going to get tested this week,” Martinez said. “We’ll know where we’re at and what we really need to im-prove on with a lot more com-petition this week.”

Huskies senior Adrian Garza powers past a pair of Wahluke defenders for a layup in Tuesday night’s jamboree action.

On the offensive side, Her-rud thought the team might have let some opening game nerves get to them and made a few mistakes on things they worked on in practice.

“Offensively, every time we got the ball on the wings, we dribbled up to the point,” Herrud said. “That’s not our

offense, we never do that in practice. There’s a little bit of pressure on us but hardly any pressure at all. We’re going to work on a lot of pressure on the ball and making sure they run the offense correctly.”

With their first test out of the way, Herrud is confident his team will continue to work

hard in practice to fix some of those issues they encountered in the jamboree.

“Every once in a while I see a spark of something happen-ing, but I want to see that hap-pening all the time out there,” Herrud said.

The Huskies will face some tough competition once they

start playing league games starting with a road trip to Toppenish this Saturday. Her-rud knows his team will have to step up to the challenge.

“This was no pressure at all,” Herrud said. “Once we play CWAC teams, they’re going to ramp it up about 10 times. We better be ready for that.”


Othello’s swimming stand-out Natilee Ruiz continued to find success at a recent meet in her college career. She won in three events during a meet on Saturday, Dec. 1.

As a teammate for San Di-ego State University, Ruiz has helped her team on their way to a 6-0 record in dual meets. SDSU and Ruiz defeated Fres-no State 133-128, only losing in one out of 13 events held at the SDSU Aztec Aquaplex.

Ruiz took first in the 50 back-stroke with a time of 26.93 and also won the 100 backstroke in 1:01.90. She also finished

the 300 freestyle in 2:52.12 for another win, according to an SDSU press release.

Ruiz also competed in the 200-yard medley relay as part of the Aztecs’ ‘C’ team. The SDSU ‘A’ and ‘B’ teams earned first and second, respectively, in the event while Ruiz’s squad narrowly missed a third-place finish. Her relay team finished in a time of 1:50.19.

As of Nov. 20, the Aztecs were ranked 10th in a national poll put together by Colleg-eSwimming.com.

Ruiz and the Aztecs will now take a long break from competitions until a dual scheduled for Monday, Jan. 7.

For the last several years, ice has been as issue for Potholes Reservoir duck hunters by the end of No-vember. This year, we have been lucky to have no ice as of Nov. 28, in the sand dunes.

Our area is holding lots of ducks and geese, if you ven-ture outside around dawn or dusk you can listen to all the geese in search of a corn fi eld or some fresh wa-ter. We have been socked in with fog every day for that last week, but that typically clears up by lunch time.

Our area is enjoying the best hunting season and, other than the fog, mild weather conditions in years. If you are in need of a cur-rent hunting or weather re-port, please give us a call at (509) 346-2651.

We have had reports of perch being caught in front of the Potholes State Park. Trout and perch are still be-ing pulled out of the Medi-care Beach area from shore or a boat. Some early signs of some Crab Creek wall-eye are being seen, but it is still fairly slow for what we typically see this time of year.
