Time runs out on the Eagles’
efforts against Ozona

The Junction Eagles’ 19 to
14 loss in last Friday night’s
football contest against the
Ozona Lions puts their playoff chances in jeopardy. The
Lions are a team the Junction
Boys could have, and should
have, defeated. At least two of
the next three games, against
Harper and San Saba, promise
to be very tough. With a 0-2
district record, the Eagles must
win the last three games if their
playoff contention hopes are
to be realized.
“We’re now in a must-win
situation,” said head coach
Cory Spivey on Tuesday. “We
have to rebound and refocus.”
Last Friday at Eagle Stadium,
the two teams tested the other’s
game for a couple of possessions. Then the Eagles sent
senior receiver Tyler Wilson
downfield, where Junction’s
junior quarterback, Brad
Sandlin, found him with a
beautiful pass. Wilson grabbed
the airborne pigskin and headed for Ozona paydirt. After a
37-yard run, a Lion slapped
the ball out of Wilson’s grip,
stopping the Eagles’ drive and
taking over on Ozona’s 38
yardline. The Eagles’ defense
stepped up to put the stop on
Ozona’s forward progress in

of Rigo Rosas (7). Rosas would perform a high wire act down the sideline and clip the inside
of the pylon for an Eagle touchdown.

Meanderings
by Frederica Wyatt
A full moon will grace the
skies Friday, October 22, and
– although it should be quite
spectacular – it will not be
this year’s Harvest Moon. That
2011 moon occurrence coincided with the autumnal equinox Thursday, September 23.
Condolences go to Jay
Williams and his family in the
loss of his father, Billie Neal
Williams, who died Thursday,
October 14, at his home in
San Angelo. Billie and his
wife, Vera Fay, were former
Junction residents.
Funeral services for Patsy
Dee Wheatley McElhaney
of Austin, and formerly of
Junction, were held Monday,
October 18, at the Austin
Memorial Park Cemetery. She
passed away Thursday, October
14. Patsy was the widow of
the late Bill McElhaney, and
among her survivors are her
daughter and sons, Michelle
Melo and Michael and Mitchell
McElhaney. I send my caring
thoughts to the family at this
sad time. The obituary was forwarded to me by my daughter,
Charlotte Rohowetz.
Bobby Murphy, a local resident, passed away Sunday,
October 17, and my sympathy
goes to his family and friends.
A message from Jay Taylor
of Harper brought news the
lunch and program for the
Ranger Cross and Confederate
ceremony to be held in the
St. Anthony Catholic Church
Community Hall at 4th and
Oak Streets one and one-half
blocks north of Highway 290
in Harper. This is a change
from the previously announced
location for the event. A lunch
begins at 12:00 noon and will
be followed by the program at
1 p.m. The public is invited to
attend the activities.
Good news coming our
way is Eric Sitler is back in
San Diego after a six months’
deployment. In addition to
twice being at Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii, he visited many new
ports. Included in the “faraway
places with strange sounding names” were Muara,
Brunel; Pattaya and Phuket in
Thailand; Surabaya, Indonesia;
Lumut, Malaysia; Changi,
Singapore; Okinawa, Sasebo,
and Aomori, all in Japan;
Vladivostok, Russia; Rabaul,
New Guinea; and Guam.
Congratulations are due
Justin Stapp, who has been
accepted at the University of
Texas, where he will be working on a degree in Pharmacy.
A number of years ago, I
was contacted by Herman
and Prudie Connor of Fort
Stockton, who were in quest of
the burial site of T. J. Creech,
a former resident on South
Llano, who was thought to
have been killed by Indians.
When I discovered their
address in my files, I telephoned the Connors this week
to give them information, as
I had researched and written
an article about the June 1879
deaths of Creech and his sonin-law, George Branch. I was
happy to mail a copy of the
article that had appeared in
one of The Junction Eagle’s
Visitors Guides.
Will Roe, a consistent contributor to the museum building fund, was accompanied
by a former Air Force buddy,
John Dixon, when they toured
the museum on a recent day.
We enjoyed a pleasant visit,
and John told me he enjoys
reading the Meanderings columns. The Air Force groups
hold regular reunions at the
home of John and his wife in
Elma, Washington.
Virginia Pettigrew Parr of
Talpa was a museum visitor in early-week. She was in
Junction to attend a seminar
for law enforcement officers.
Virginia, whose parents were
the late Lee and Velma Doss
Pettigrew, is a deputy sheriff in
Runnels County.
A former Kimble County
resident, Jim Brunson of El
Indio, spent some time at the
museum. Jim is a member
of the local Frontier Guards
Camp, Sons of Confederate
Veterans. He said Nancy was
visiting Janet Jones while he
was making the rounds seeing
friends and catching up on the
latest news.
Two couples who toured
the museum were Bill and
Joyce Bone of Cat Spring and
Wayne and Linda Baber of
Marquez. They hope to return
for the March outing at Seven
Hundred Springs. Several
members of the Aquilla Evans
family dropped by the museum
during the week. Another outof-town visitor at the museum
was Kurt Maurer of League
City.
We are always happy to
welcome our guests, both
local and out-of-the city residents. Numbered among local
friends who came our way
were Billie Hicks, Brenda
Furr, Todd D’Spain, Ronny
Carpenter, Joselyn Conner,
Charles Hagood, and others.
I appreciate the timely help
extended by Billie Meckley,
who volunteers several days a
week at the historical facility.
Trudy Vierling Weems
brought an old bottle of Wire
Fence Liniment from her
dad’s (the late Oliver Lynn
Vierling’s) barn. The solution
was to be used for “injuries to
stock caused by barbed wire
fences, etc.” and was bottled
by J. A. Heyman, Druggist,
Junction City, Texas.
Larry Harrison was the bearer of a gift of an air map when
he dropped by Thursday afternoon.
My weekly mailbag contained a welcomed communique from Estella Garza
Castro of Irving, a friend of
the long ago. I had mentioned
the former Betty Farmer in
a previous Meanderings, and
that rekindled happy memories for Estella, whose aunt
– Gavina Gonzalez, had lived
in the Farmer ranch household. Estella related her uncle,
Abel Pruneda, worked for
the Farmers until he retired.
In later years, Mr. Pruneda
recalled driving a covered
wagon when George W. and
Jemima Farmer and two of
their sons, Sayers and Hardy,
went on the California Trail
to deliver cattle to prospective
buyers.
On
Tuesday,
Renee
Braswell brought students
from her gifted and talented
classes to the museum, as
the group is studying local
historical places and events.
Among the enthusiastic group
were Mecina Davis, Asha
Dale, Kyna Bullard, Madison
Phillips, Kyle Lumpkins,
Mason Purlia, Lauren Zion,
Devon Moore, Doran Baiza,
Jewel Schoppe, Ethan Adams,
Abby Zabarowski, Michael
Van Winkle and Kaylei
Diefenbach. Kaylei returned
that afternoon with her mom,
Myndi Freeman Jameson.
Later, Doran came in search of
additional information on his
research subject.
Local Boy Scouts working
on merit badges at the museum
Thursday afternoon were Carl
Mogford, Doss Murr, Jake
Nowlin and Martin Wright.
Adults accompanying the
scouts were Meredith Nowlin,
Wanda Wright and Liz Anne
Dechert.
David
and
Revenna
Tomlinson Buster toured the
museum during the week.
They have been living in
Austin, and it had been several
years since I had a chance to
visit with them.
Scott Jordan of Sonora was
guest speaker at Thursday’s
noon meeting of Junction
Rotary Club. He is executive
director of the Pecos Heritage
Trail. The Trails originated under the sponsorship of
Governor John Connally
and the Texas Highway
Department (now Department
of Transportation) in conjunction with the 1968 Hemisfair
at San Antonio. At that time,

Billie “Big Daddy” Williams
Billie Neal “Big Daddy”
Williams, 79, of San Angelo,
and formerly of Junction,
went to be with his Lord in
Heaven on Thursday the 14th
of October, 2010, in his home
with his loving family beside
him.
Billie Neal was born to Jess
and Maggie Lee Williams
on December 8, 1930, in
Millersview, Texas. He attended school in Millersview and
in Eden, where he graduated
as a Fighting Bulldog in the
Class of 1949. After graduation, Billie Neal joined the
US Air Force in 1950. In 1951
he gave in to his hometown
sweetheart and married Vera
Fay Smith on December 26 in
Veribest, Texas. While in the
Air Force, Billie was a radio
communicator on a Bomber
Aircraft while stationed in San
Juan, Puerto Rico, during the
Korean War. Following his
Honorable Discharge from the
Air Force in 1954, Billie Neal
began a career with the Federal
Aviation Agency which took
him to San Angelo, Amarillo,
Midland and eventually to
Junction in 1959, where he
retired from the FAA after 20
years.
He was a licensed airplane
pilot and a member of the
Junction Flying Club.
Billie Neal then began a
future working in the electronic field first with Meredith
and Henley, a local television/radio sales and repair
office, to follow this with
his own company Williams’
Electronics, which he operated
until his children all graduated
from high school. In 1982 he
moved to San Angelo where
he leased and operated the
Twin Buttes Marina for about
three years. In 1985 Billie
began his second career as an
electrical control technician in
the Nuclear Energy business.
He worked at the Comanche
Peak Steam Electric Plant in
Glen Rose, Texas. Along the
way he worked at nuclear
plants in Texas, New York,
Pennsylvania,
Alabama,
Washington, Ohio, South
Carolina, and ended his career
just a few months ago at the
Diablo Canyon facility in
California.
Billie was preceded in death
by his father Jess Williams and
sister Peggy Adkins.
He is survived by his loving
wife of over 57 years Vera
Fay Williams of San Angelo;
his son, Billy, “Chuck”
Williams and wife, Katie, of
Stephenville; daughter, Debra
Fay Farr and husband, Randy,
of Tolar; son, Jay Williams
and wife, Jolene, of Junction,
and son, Rex Williams of
Granbury. He is also survived by his mother Maggie
Lee Williams, brother, Bobby
Williams and wife, Hazel,
brother, Gene Williams and
wife, Quata, and sister, Nita
Buchanan and husband, Fred,
all of Dublin, Texas.
He is also survived by special sisters-in-law, Willie
Alexander and Jewel Schafer
of San Angelo, and brothersin-law, Charlie Smith and
wife, Claudia, of Pear Valley,
and Vernon Smith and Linda,
of San Angelo, and also a very
special uncle, Joe Prosise, of
Fort Stockton.
Commonly known as “Big
Daddy” he is lovingly remembered by sixteen grandkids,
and twenty-seven great-grandkids, and many more nieces,
nephews, family and friends.
Billie was also a member of
the San Angelo Elks Lodge
#1880.
The family would like to
send a special thank you to the
many men and women Billie
worked for and with in the
nuclear field; you are really
special people in his heart. Also

A message
from Chief Marvin Ivy
It is that time of the year
again. Of all the articles I have
submitted over the last two
years, the one people remember the most has to do with toilet paper. I guess everyone has
to be known for something.
Everyone is somewhat of an
expert on toilet paper. I caught
a lot of ribbing for asking people to buy the expensive stuff
when they stocked up, if they
had teenagers.
My thought process was
that the kids were going to
appropriate the stuff anyway
to paper their friends’ or rivals’
trees. We were going to catch
them and confiscate the “criminal Instruments”.
The parents were going to
be too embarrassed to drive
down and try to reclaim the
toilet paper, and after weeks of
sitting around, it would go into
inventory for the ultimate use
of employees, aldermen and
those using the council cham-
bers for meetings.
One of the things I had to
get used to when I came to
Junction was the different attitudes on the very practice of
“T.P.ing” neighbor’s trees. If
you have teenagers, you probably expect it, and don’t get
upset by it. If you live next
door to a teacher and your trees
get it by mistake, you aren’t
near as nonchalant about it.
If it rains, and the toilet paper
disappears, it is a mild inconvenience. If it is really dry, as it
has been for a while, that toilet
paper seems to hang around
forever. The only solution is
to call the police and complain
about the “criminal activity” in
your yard. Now you see why
we try and catch the “offenders” when we can. One last
aspect of this very localized
custom, is that it really does
seem to end with Halloween.
Halloween has gotten to be
more popular every year. With
You’re an Angel.....

kids going door-to-door after
dark, it is always is a traffic
concern. When picking costumes, try to go light in color
or add reflective accessories
that will help protect kids on
our dark streets. Flashlights are
always a good idea. Neighbors
need to leave outdoor lights on
to add another level of safety.
Parents need to look for flameproof or flame retardant costumes.
If you see a trailer full of
kids, stay back a good distance. If you are driving a
trailer full of kids, keep your
windows down and an adult in
the back who can warn you if
a kid falls off or gets clothing
caught in a wheel. I’m sorry to
keep bringing some of these
worse case scenarios up, but
I have been doing this a long
time and have experienced a
couple of these tragic events
and feel obligated to pass on
the warnings.
It is like throwing candy
from a moving parade vehicle. No one locally has had an
eye put out or a kid run over
because they darted in front of
a driver, so everyone assumes
it won’t happen here. If I try to
point out the inherent dangers,
I am an old “fuddy-duddy”
who wants to change the local
traditions.
So the only happy middle
ground is for me to let you do
it the way you always have,
and to give out as many warnings as I can. I hope I am
wrong and nothing bad happens to any of our kids. After
all, it is our sincere hope that
everyone enjoys life here in
the land of living waters.

. .from the Library
by Sylvia Lawler
Friday is the day that this
column is usually written and
sent to The Junction Eagle.
But here it is Saturday afternoon, and a subject for next
week’s edition is still evading
my mind. No, it’s not writer’s block this time. It is the
weather.
These cool mornings and
warm afternoons just beg and
beckon a person to the out-ofdoors. Or at least it calls to me.
I want to be outside not inside,
working in the flower beds or
beginning a new craft project.
I need to paint something, anything; maybe that front door
seems like a great venture to
undertake.
So here it is Saturday afternoon, at home, sitting at my
computer, trying hard to think
of a topic to write about. But
I did get to do some piddling
in the backyard this morning. I moved the flower pots
around, thinking about when
they will have to be brought
into the house because of the
cold weather. But that should
be a ways off.
You know what comes to
mind? All of those books back
at the library on fall gardening.
Wouldn’t it be great to thumb
through some of those materials and see what plants would
survive the cold of winter and
still be left outside. Yes, I need
to check one or two of those
volumes out.
Oh and just the other day
a couple of new craft books
came in. Maybe there is a new
project among those pages that
can give me suggestions on
what to do with that tile and
scrap lumber left over from
another long ago project. If
am lucky, there might be one
or two of those new books left
on the shelves for me to check
out.
And those new Christmas
craft books that arrived last
week might have some great
ideas for gifts to give this
Christmas. Now is the time to
tackle those projects so they
will be ready in time to put
under the tree. I sure hope
there is at least one of those
left for me.
You know, I think I will go
back to the library and see if I
can check out a few of these
books. No, I need to stay here
at this computer and try to
think of something to write for
next week’s column. Let’s see!
What can I write about?

the next series, requiring the
Lions to punt.
The Eagle offense got serious. From the Junction 31
yardline, Sandlin tucked the
ball, barreled around the right
side of the line and picked up
a quick 19 yards. The Eagles’
leading rusher, senior Ty Stapp,
added more with several hardfought carries. Alec Menchaca
pulled in a Sandlin pass, good
for 15 yards. Stapp ground out
some more. On first and goal,
Sandlin found Wilson cruising
behind the scrum for the score.
Kade Wimberley’s kick was
good. Eagles-7, Ozona-0.
The Lions responded with
determination. The Eagles’
attempted onside kick failed, so
the Lions set up camp midfield
and moved quickly. Brayden
Schulze intercepted a pass, but
a flag against Ozona resulted
in the play being called dead,
so the Lions retained possession. The Eagle defense stood
its ground, but after taking a
timeout on a fourth and 18,
the Lions pulled off a smooth
reverse, sending speedster Kyle
Dean hurtling 24 yards for the
Junction goal line. Rigo Rosas
stopped him on the six, but two
plays later, Dean charged right
up the middle into the Eagles’
prime real estate. Junction-7,
Ozona-7
After the halftime break, the
Lions turned Junction’s first
possession into a scoring opportunity for themselves when
Abey Lara grabbed a Sandlin
pass and threaded his way
through the Eagles offense and
ran 65 yards to score for Ozona.
Eagles senior Rafael Fuentes
was successful in blocking the
point-after kick, and the Lions
went ahead 13 to 7.

On the Eagles’ next drive,
Stapp, Wimberley and Sandlin
carried, but were not able to
overcome a delay of game,
five-yard penalty call, so on
fourth and one, Rosas punted
for the hometown team. The
Lions took only four plays to
score, when Dean grabbed a
short Lara pass and sprinted
70 yards over the Junction
goal line. A two-point conversion attempt was broken up
by Rosas, so the Lions had
to settle for a 12-point lead.
Junction-7, Ozona-19.
On the next possessions, neither team was able to make
much headway. Then, at the
beginning of the fourth quarter, the Eagles drove from
their own 41 yardline into the
Ozona endzone. Stapp did
the heavy lifting for Junction
on the 59-yard drive. On the
Ozona’s 13, Rosas made a onehanded grab of a Sandlin pass
and Wimberley added a good
PAT kick. The Eagles pulled
within four, but the game clock
showed only four and a half
minutes left to play.
The expected onside kick
was covered by most of the
players on the field, but there
was a Lion at the bottom of the
pile. The Lions went to work

Awareness
in women who do not seem to
have breast problems. The test
may be uncomfortable but will
last only for a few seconds.
There is no completely sure
way to prevent breast cancer.
However if an individual limits
alcohol use, exercises regularly
and keeps a healthy weight, a
person is decreasing the risk of
getting breast cancer. Most of
all, it is important for women
to follow the American Cancer
Society’s guidelines for finding breast cancer early.
To help raise mindfulness and
knowledge about breast cancer
here in Kimble County, a Pink
Out Day for Cancer Awareness
is coming on Tuesday, October
26. Community members are
urged to wear pink on that day
to show support and are invited
to a Breast Cancer Awareness
event in the Junction National
Bank community room from
4:30 to 6:30. The event will
be sponsored by the Junction
Warehouse Company and
Simply Generations.
Anyone that is a breast cancer survivor and wouldn’t mind
being introduced at this event,
the sponsors would love for
you to attend. You may participate by calling Laurrie Allen
at the Junction Warehouse
Company, 446-2537, or
Kathy Cashman at Simply

that may invade surrounding
tissues or spread (metastasize)
to distant areas of the body.
It is found mostly in women,
but men can get breast cancer,
also.
The most common sign of
breast cancer is a new lump or
mass. (A lump within the breast
is the main symptom for breast
cancer, but many lumps are not
cancerous. They can happen as
a result of normal hormonal
changes.) Some lumps may be
painless and hard, but some
cancers are tender and soft so
it is important to have anything
unusual checked by a doctor.
Also swelling, skin irritation,
pain, redness, discharge and
a lump in the underarm area
need to be checked by a doctor.
Anyone having a higher risk
of breast cancer should talk
with their doctor about the best
approach for them.
A routine screening mammogram for early detection of
breast cancer in women aged
40 to 74 years will reduce
the likelihood of death from
breast cancer by 10% to 20%.
A mammogram is an x-ray of
the breast performed by a technologist. The mammogram is
used to look for breast disease
up as much time as possible
on each play. On a fourth and
one, they converted. When the
Eagles finally got the ball, they
weren’t able to do much with
the 13 seconds left in the game
and 59 yards to cover.
Leading the defense for
the Eagles was Fuentes with
seven tackles, three sacks and
a blocked PAT. Robert Young
and Trevor Brawley each
made seven tackles. Stapp was
credited with three tackles and
three sacks and Jordan Keeton
made four tackles and a sack.

sented. Within this agenda
were minutes of the September
8 meeting, the financial
reports, a food service report,
the DIC report, the approval of
TASB Policy Update 88, the
approval of the Superintendent
Evaluation Form for 20102011 and the approval of the
Shared Services Agreement
with the Menard Special
Education Cooperative.
Next on the agenda was
an update on the Cafeteria
Project. Dr. Renee Schulze,
superintendent, stated that
there had been a special called
board meeting on October 6,
at which a change order and
payment had been approved.
Dr. Schulze also brought to the
table the fact that the vent in
the kitchen has to have larger
pipes (than were first planned)
to function properly. The question is, “Who is paying for this
change?” and the answer is still
undecided.
The board members were
given the following information. Owen Sellers and Hubert
D’Spain currently serve
as directors on the Kimble
a new look, with Ducie
Carrington the likely starting
quarterback for Junction. That
game is scheduled to start at
7:30 p.m. on Friday in Harper.
The Longhorns bring an
unusual offense, with Reagan
Randle and Jake Whitten alternately serving as quarterback,
receiver and runningback.
“They like to throw the ball,”
said Coach Spivey, “and they
run well too. We’ll have to
contain them.”

December 31. The Board of
Trustees is entitled to nominate
two people for their slots. Upon
the receipt of all nominees from
the participating entities, the
Appraisal District will prepare
a ballot and send it to the JISD
Board for the voting process.
Following the reminder of
this information, the Board
voted unanimously to nominate
Keeton Blackburn and Toby
Robinson for the ballot. The
Board will vote on the nominees
in November or December.
The last item of the business
agenda was the consideration
of a revision in the JISD 20102011 calendar. The District
and all three Campus committees are recommending changing the bad weather day of
May 13 to May 27, with May
13 becoming a student school
day and May 27 becoming the
bad weather day. May 27 is
graduation day, and this would
provide more time for preparation for graduation activities.
The Board voted unanimously
to make this change.
There being no more
business, the meeting was
adjourned.

SEER rating of a unit is the

total electric energy input and
represents the energy efficiency of the unit. The higher the
SEER rating, the more energy
efficient the unit is. The SECO
requires a minimum rating of
14 to be eligible for grant funding.
Commissioners voted to
approve an indemnity and hold
harmless agreement with the
First United Methodist Church
so that a sign for the Kimble
County Library could be
placed on church property.
Shawn Murff, Supervisor of
the County Road and Bridge
Division, gave a report to the
Commissioners covering the
last 14 working days. Work

Donations of livestock may

“Our participation will help

in London immediately.
The Schmeltekopfs bring a
rich combination of experiences to the London Baptist
Family. Rev. Schmeltekopf
served as pastor of six churches including Trinity Baptist
Church of Kerrville and the
First Baptist Church of San
Marcos. He served the Hill
Country Baptist Area as area
minister (director of missions)
for twelve years and spent the
last ten years serving churches
as interim pastor. Bettye taught
public school for thirty years;
the last ten were for Harper
lSD.
For Bob, serving the London
on KC 443, including removal
of two cattle guards, widening
and seal-coating, and patching, has been completed. This
work was made possible by a
monetary donation from the
landowners who drive on KC
443. Similar work has been
completed on KC 350 and was
required by damages from construction of the NextEra power
lines and paid for by NextEra.
All paving projects were
scheduled to be completed in
the next week, and an increased
effort on repairing and replacing cattle guards would follow.
Junction Mayor Larry
Maddux addressed the Court
and asked them to consider
helping fund the dumpsters
provided for hunters. As this
was not on the agenda, the
Court could take no action.
They did promise to address
this request at their next meeting.
Hill Country area,” said Hubert
and Sheila D’Spain, second
generation supporters.
Adding momentum to this
year’s Round-Up are the commitments by Bar-G Feed Yard,
Family PowerSports, Group
IV Electric Cooperatives,
Lone Star Beef Processors and
Strongpoint/Pied Piper Pet &
Wildlife who’re serving as corporate sponsors for the 2010
drive. Additional support is
being provided by Aermotor
Windmill Co., Angelo Pellets,
Capital Farm Credit, Mueller
Metals and A-B Distributing.
Since 1953, West Texas
Rehab’s mission has been to
improve the quality of life for
children and adults seeking its
wide range of rehabilitative
services, regardless of their
financial circumstances.
Baptist Church is almost like
going back home again. He
was born and reared in Kyle,
then a small rural community
south of Austin. “I grew up on
a dairy farm and was active
with my family in a small rural
church. I deeply value the contributions of that smaller membership church upon my life
during my formative years.”
Rev. Schmeltekopf continues
by asserting, “My little home
church nurtured and encouraged me to pursue God’s will
for my life, and it was there
that I committed my life to
serve Him in church ministry.
No greater honor or privilege
could have been mine.
Bettye and I feel so blessed
to be able to serve the London
Baptist Church family.”
The Court then considered
a proposal from iDocket.com
to provide the District Clerk’s
office with software to comply with the Office of Court
Administration requirements.
The product proposed would
track both property record and
court case information. The
cost of the program is $65,000,
which would be paid over a
five-year period. This includes
$35,000 for the first year and
$7,500 per year thereafter
for support. This expense is
not in the upcoming budget.
Commissioners tabled this
issue until their next meeting.
Commissioners then voted
to approve a number of
motions in rapid succession:
an Interlocal Agreement for
Concho Valley Workforce
Development Area Chief
Elected Officials Agreement
for minor amendments to bylaws; an agreement between
the County and the American
Red Cross for the use of the
Stevenson Center as a mass
care shelter/service center for
disaster relief activities, the
reappointment of Edwards
County Judge Nick Gallegos
to represent Kimble County on
the board of Trustees of the Hill
Country Community Mental
Health and Mental Retardation
Center; the acceptance of the
county audit report for the
year ending December 31,
2009; a resolution relating to
the Indigent Defense Formula
Grant Program; an Interlocal
Agreement between Lubbock
County and Kimble County for
supplying a Regional Public
Defender in capital cases; a
resolution in support of legislation related to County Juvenile
Boards;
acknowledgment
of the receipt of the 198th
District Attorney’s asset forfeiture budget for 2010-2011;
the appointment of Billie
Meckley to fill the unexpired
term on the Kimble County
Historical Commission; a resolution in support of November
being “Home Care & Hospice
Month”, and a resolution verifying the county’s support of
$7,260 to Meals-on-Wheels for
use in applications to the Texas
Department of Agriculture
Home-delivered Meal Grant
Program.
Commissioners took no
action on a proposal from Hart
InterCivic to freeze payment
amounts by purchasing plans
for 3- or 5-year time frames.
Commissioners voted to pay
bills and amend the budget
to authorized revenues and
expenditures. All business
concluded, the meeting was
adjourned.

Hospital
Continued from Page 1
for Kimble County by creating
an environment where quality
healthcare services exists to
enhance the quality of life in
the community.
Bowen has experience in
every aspect of healthcare
operations including physician practice development in a
rural environment. He spent 21
years as the president and CEO
of the East Texas Medical
Center (ETMC) Jacksonville
where he acquired experience
in hospital licensure issues and
healthcare finance. He successfully cut financial losses
to where the hospital became
profitable, increased medical
services offered to the community and strengthened community and physician relations
for the benefit of all. In his
career he has also overseen
the operations of ETMC affiliate hospitals and developed an
outpatient pharmacy.
“I’m really looking forward to
becoming a part of the Junction
community and helping to build
the new hospital and clinic. I’ve
always enjoyed hospital construction, and this is an opportunity for me to work with the
hospital district board and the
community to create an outstanding medical facility that
allows the staff to deliver quality healthcare,” says Bowen.
Beyond the new construction, Bowen is interested in
working to increase the medical services currently available to the community. “Just
because a person lives in a
rural area, that doesn’t mean
you should have to travel long
distances to receive some of
the most common healthcare
services. Everyone deserves to
have quality healthcare close to
home, and I want to be part of
making that happen in Kimble
County,” comments Bowen.
Bowen has a Bachelor of
Science in business administration from Houston Baptist
University and did his graduate
studies at Trinity University in
San Antonio.
Bowen succeeds John
Hughson as the Kimble
Hospital
Administrator.
Hughson has been with the
hospital almost two years, and
his last day is Friday. “John
spent a great deal of time and
energy to create a positive
healthcare picture for Kimble
County’s future, and he will
be missed. We wish him and
his family well,” commented
Andy Freeman of Preferred
Hospital Leasing Junction, Inc.

The Junction Eagle, Wednesday, October 20, 2010
Mike
Hey Ike !!
It sure would
have made it easier for the
Eagles to make the playoffs
had they won Friday night
against Ozona. The general
consensus around town is that
this was a game we should
have won!! With Junction
now sitting at 0 - 2 in district
play, it appears we have to win
our next three games -- not
unreachable, just no margin
for error. This week’s game
against Harper (in Harper) is
another game we can win IF
we play the way we CAN
play.
I guess the big question is
DO WE WANT IT? When the
little oopses happen, as they
will, can we get over it and not
let it cost us a quarter or a half?
Somebody has got to step up
and be the LEADER that we
need to keep us on track. We
have some good kids out there
bustin’ their butts, however,
the TEAM unity seems to be
lacking in some areas. The
perennial powerhouses have
one ingredient which we don’t
have -- heart and refusing to
accept defeat. This does not
happen by accident. It starts
with leadership, both on the
field and off. It requires effort
from not only the team, but
also the coaches, band, cheerleaders, announcers, and the
fans. YES, THE FANS !!!
We all support our Eagles,
but sometimes we need to
remind them. Instead of sitting there like a bunch of ventriloquist dummies, we need
some Pentecostal energy in
the stands !! We need to make
some noise -- GET ROWDY
-- HELP OUR EAGLES !!
This week’s game is in
Harper -- 7:30 kickoff. I wonder if we can make a little trip
and help OUR EAGLES put it
on ‘em in their house.
Eagles 35 - Harper 21.
GO EAGLES !!!
Ike
Hey Mike,
That was a
tough game to come up on
the short end of. Our Junction
Eagles played their hearts out.
This is however, high school
football and on any given
night a team can put it all
together and win. The Ozona
Lions got the break they needed to pull out the victory in
this one. All is not lost; we
have lots of football left in this
season. I saw our Eagles hustling and busting their humps--this will payoff. I believe if
we had one more possession,
we would have had the win.
Fantastic passing, solid running---great defense, that is
who our Junction Eagles are.
They should never be counted
out.
We are in a 2-A district
that is pretty even across the
board, we will rally this week
and take our TEAM effort to
Longhorn country. Our Eagles
will show the Longhorns some
thunder and lightening. There
is a storm coming to Harper,
and our Eagles are bringing it.
GO BLACK! BEAT
