TUESDAY May 8, 2018A2 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

MARK WATSONSTAFF WRITER

This is National Nurses Week and the 105 nurses at Mountain West Medical Center want it known that they’re passion-ate about their jobs and the patients they serve.

“I love my job and I love meeting people,” said Registered Nurse Pamela Giles. “I love that I know most of the people coming through those doors. It gives you ownership and you want to be a good nurse.”

Giles grew up in Tooele and has worked for the local hospi-tal for 27 years.

“The good far outweighs the bad,” she said.

Registered Nurse Melanie Jackson grew up in Tooele and has been a hospital employee for 28 years.

“The main thing I love here is getting to know people and meeting new people,” Jackson said. “I love to meet people who knew my grandparents and my parents. A lot of patients will say it is good to see a familiar face.”

She added, “It’s a family in your unit and a family in the hospital. I love it how all the departments here rely on each other and help each other out.”

Registered Nurse Justin

Brady has worked at MWMC for two years.

“My dad is a nurse here and works in the operating room,” he said. “He always talked really positive about his job and told me how much he liked it, so he kind of convinced me to go into nursing.”

Brady said his dad, Roger Brady, has worked at the hospi-tal for at least 20 years.

The nurses at MWMC are being honored this week as part of National Nurses Week that started on Sunday and will end Saturday. It coincides with National Hospital Week, which also runs Sunday through Saturday.

Special activities are planned at the hospital this week, including a barbecue for employees.

National Nurses Week begins each year on May 6 and ends on May 12, which is Florence Nightingale’s birthday. The first National Nurses Week was celebrated in 1954, the 100th anniversary of Nightingale’s mission to Crimea. But it wasn’t until President Ronald Reagan signed a proclamation that May 6 would henceforth be called National Nurses Week.

This year’s theme is “Nurses inspire, innovate, influence.”

Becky Trigg, marketing director for MWMC, said that according to the American Nurses Association, the U.S. will need one million nurses by 2022.

But there’s a problem to reach that number. There are not enough teachers available to teach in nursing programs, Trigg said.

But regardless of how many

new nurses are needed in the future, Brady said they would enjoy working at MWMC.

“There is a great culture here. Some people have this negative image of the hospital, but once they start working here, they see that it’s not like some people portray it to be,” Brady said. “Especially nowa-days with social media. A per-son will say something online and we can’t really defend our-selves because of HIPPAA laws. There really is a positive image here. I love my coworkers and my boss.”

Jackson served as a combat medic in the Army National Guard during Desert Storm from 1990-91. She learned that if she joined the military, she would not have to pay for nurs-ing school. After a stint in the military, she graduated from nursing school in 1992, and works in the surgical unit at MWMC.

“I like the fast pace of see-ing several patients throughout the day instead of only one or two all day,” Jackson said. “I love the surgical department because we see lots of patients each day. We get them ready for surgery, help them with recovery afterwards, and send them out the door or to their room.”

She likes to be with patients before surgery and after they wake up.

“You need to calm them down and make them feel relaxed,” Jackson said. “They are nervous to get their IV start-ed, nervous because they have never had surgery and nervous about anesthesia. I like to be able to comfort them.”

Giles started out on the ambulance crew in Tooele and kept waiting for it to become a paramedic service. When that didn’t happen, she went to school and became a nurse.

“I would have stayed with the ambulance service if they would have acted a little quicker to become a paramedic service,” Giles said. “I worked as a critical care tech, CNA, kept marching up and up and became a nurse in the emer-gency room.”

She enjoys listening to her patients, many of whom enjoy having conversations.

“The older patients like to talk. For a while I took care of my babysitter from when I was young,” Giles said. She said when some patients know who you are related to, they espe-cially like to talk.

But more importantly, nurses continue to save lives every day.

“I’ve seen lives saved in the OR and tons of lives saved in the ER,” Giles said. “When somebody’s bleeding in the OR, you have to move quickly. If someone’s not breathing they have to be taken care of quickly and there are plenty of people here who come to help.”

Jackson, Giles and Brady rel-ish living in Tooele with their workplace nearby.

“It is a smaller hospital, so I feel like you’re not just a num-ber, not just another employee,” Brady said. “You’re actually somebody that matters at this hospital so I like that. I like that it is close to home. It’s just a short commute, and I like to be able to make a difference in my community.”[email protected]

Tooele organizes spring cleanup projects that utilize volunteersMARK WATSONSTAFF WRITER

Tooele City leaders want residents to get involved and take pride in the appearance of the city and have organized a spring cleanup campaign called #TakePrideTooele.

Mayor Debbie Winn said she wanted to make a concerted effort to seek volunteer groups to help with the spring cleanup in time for Memorial Day on May 28.

She asked City employees Shilo Baker of the mayor’s office and Terra Sherwood of the parks and recreation depart-ment, to organize the efforts that began on April 30.

“We always have groups who call and ask how they can get involved,” Sherwood said. “It’s been fun to see people get involved and post before-and-after photos of their yards on our website or on Facebook.”

Baker said. “We’ve been extremely pleased with the response.”

She said there are three parts to #TakePrideTooele, which include people cleaning up their own yards, organizing neighborhood cleanups, and providing ideas to help clean up Tooele City in general.

Ideas to clean up and beauti-fy yards are found on the City’s website at tooelecity.org.

“Homeowners can make a big difference simply by sweeping out their gutters,” Baker said.

Winn said people can offer assistance to someone in their neighborhood who could use a little help cleaning up their property. Other ideas include organizing neighborhood groups to clean up common areas, double frontages, road-ways, alleyways and nature areas.

The City also has compiled

a list of possible projects for groups to complete at city parks, along roadways, at City Hall, on Main Street, at muse-ums and at the golf course.

Some of the tasks include leveling out woodchips under playground areas, cleaning up picnic areas, painting pavilions, sweeping parking lots and gut-ters.

Several groups already have committed to most of the work at the parks, but none have committed to picking up gar-bage along roadsides at 1000 North, 700 South, 900 South and sections of Droubay Road.

People can visit tooelecity.org or call 435-843-2143 for a list of community projects where families or organizations can volunteer.

The City encourages busi-nesses and organizations to clean up their storefronts and properties.

Ace Disposal also has offered two bulk pickups for houses this month.

For those with regular gar-bage pickup on Monday the extra bulk pickup day is May 15. Those with pickup on Monday had an extra day last Thursday. For those whose regular gar-bage pickup is on Tuesday, they will have bulk pickup days on May 10 and May 22. Those with regular pickup days on

Wednesday had an extra day on May 1 and will have another bulk pickup day on May 17.

Those with pickup days on Thursday and Friday will have a pickup day on Tuesday and another bulk pickup day on May 24.

Residents should call ACE Disposal directly at 435-882-7009 if they have questions about bulk waste [email protected]

Grantsville City Council denies development concept planSTEVE HOWESTAFF WRITER

The Grantsville City Council denied the concept plan for a planned unit development over con-cerns about road widths and drainage during its Wednesday night meeting.

The proposed develop-ment, located at 619 W. Clark St., would include six single-family lots and 73 multi-housing units on approximately 8.4 acres. The multi-housing units would be townhomes clus-tered in groups of two to five units.

Grantsville City Mayor Brent Marshall said a group of city officials, includ-ing City Attorney Brett Coombs and Grantsville Fire Marshal Brad Clayton, met with Reid Dickson of Infinity Consultants to dis-cuss the development prior to the city council meeting.

Marshall said there were concerns about private road widths in the development, which were listed at only 34-foot right-of-ways and widening the road would shorten driveways so vehi-cles wouldn’t fit.

“The whole thing is he’s got too many units jammed into too small of a piece of property,” Marshall said. “There’s not adequate park-ing.”

Marshall also said Dickson, who was not pres-ent for the initial discussion on the concept plan, didn’t seem willing to adjust the design to address concerns. Councilmen Scott Stice and

Neil Critchlow both said it appeared the develop-ers weren’t meeting their part of the give-and-take involved in a PUD.

The City Council unani-mously denied the concept plan for the PUD, on a motion from Critchlow, seconded by Councilwoman Krista Sparks.

During a second public comment period at the Wednesday night meeting, the third-to-last agenda item, Dickson arrived at the meeting, citing traffic delays on Interstate 15. He requested a chance to address the City Council and was given five minutes.

Dickson unveiled an updated PUD, which included private roads with 42-foot right-of-ways and single-side parking. He also said driveways were extended to 20 feet. Eight of the townhomes on the north edge of the develop-ment were moved into the center of the development, switching places with a park with pavilion and parking.

The City Council expressed concerns about enforcing the single-side parking on the private roads and Dickson said the homeowner’s association would enforce parking, as Grantsville City police could not.

Following Dickson’s pre-sentation, the City Council elected to not reopen the concept plan approval, which remained denied. [email protected]

Refugee who came to Utah with little now med-school boundSALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A

Somalian woman, who arrived to the U.S. as a refugee five years ago speaking very little English, gave one of the graduation speeches at the University of Utah about how she earned a chem-istry degree and got accepted to start medical school at the University of Minnesota.

It only took Hodan Abdi a day to write the speech for the univer-sity’s Thursday commencement

ceremony about the struggle she faced growing up in war-torn Somalia and the journey that led her to pursue her dreams, the Deseret News reported.

“I want to talk about how pro-fessors have helped me and how I will use my education,” she said.

Before her May 3 graduation, Abdi remembered her life at a ref-ugee camp in Ethiopia and cried as she thought about her friends, who although hardworking, do

not have the same opportunities she does.

“School is everything,” she said.

Abdi’s family fled Somalia to get away from the dangers brought by its civil war.

Rebels frequently targeted schools and universities, prevent-ing Abdi from getting a formal education until she was 13.

But that didn’t stop the young girl from studying Shakespeare,

the Greeks and Isaac Newton at home when she wasn’t busy talk-ing care of her siblings and teach-ing herself English from reading books and watching American movies.

She was 18 when her family was granted a visa and moved to Utah.

Because she was too old to go to high school, Abdi got a job cleaning student housing at the University of Utah to help support

her family.It was there that she met

Martha Archuleta, a mentor from Catholic Community Services, who encouraged her to pursue a GED diploma.

“Science and math were hard-er in the camp,” she notes, “but I struggled with the reading.”

She went on to study at Salt Lake Community College in 2013 and at the University of Utah in 2015.

TUESDAY May 8, 2018A4 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

When we’re having dinner as a family, we’ll talk about almost everything, from

serious things to news of the weird.One of our twin sons wants to

teach and coach soccer, the other plans to go into accounting.

Since they’re grown college men now, almost any topic is allowed at dinner. Betty, a teacher, is a responsi-ble adult, and a consensus is forming that I’m almost fully grown, too.

Only two topics are prohibited: One is sex. The other is the bright, shining future of American journalism, which can only ruin my appetite.

So we might talk instead about creepy Bill Cosby, the former Jell-O pitchman and cultural icon finally convicted on sexual assault charges. We might talk of those odd pigs in Japan with human organs growing inside of them for later harvest.

But the other evening at home, one of our sons mentioned the baby in Liverpool, England.

“What baby?” Betty said sharply.Baby Alfie.As she was filled in on the details,

she looked across the table at me, into my eyes, then through them to some other place.

We’d known that place years ago. It is a room with beeping monitors, tubes and a rocking chair. Nurses would walk through in their soft quiet shoes.

I knew she was there in that room, on the edge of what could have been the beginning of a vastly different life for us.

Perhaps you’ve tried avoiding the Baby Alfie story as we did.

The 23-month-old boy was diag-nosed with a rare brain disorder. Doctors of England’s National Health Service said they could do nothing and recommended removing life sup-port.

Italy had offered to take Alfie into one of its hospitals and try to keep him alive. But English justice rejected the kind Italian offer.

English judges ruled they knew best, and so they decided, in the best interest of the child, that justice

would have the child die.The parents, who wanted to take

the boy to Italy, had no rights in the matter.

If Alfie’s parents had been royals, there would have been a different outcome. But they’re not royals.

So Alfie’s parents had their rights removed in a nation that once gave the world the Magna Carta, and the miracle of English common law.

But it is a different England now, just as America is a different country, becoming more unrecognizable by the day.

After Alfie was taken off life sup-port, the parents put their mouths to their son’s lips and took turns hoping to breathe life into him.

Think of it.With people of faith squaring off

against those who believe in scientific rationalism, just put the politics aside.

Instead, think of the parents with the baby in the room.

“Both Kate and I had to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to keep him alive because his lips turned blue,” the father said a few days ago. “We were doing what a nurse should have been doing to sustain his life ... we all know he should be in Italy right now.”

But they weren’t in Italy. And the other day, Alfie Evans died in England.

And though our family was at din-ner at our kitchen table in a Chicago suburb, talking about national health care and what it may mean for us when judges decide to euthanize the sick and infirm for the greater good, Betty wasn’t there with us. Not really.

She was in a different place. And I knew exactly where.

It was a very difficult birth and we almost lost both the boys and Betty.

But with God’s help, her great obstetrician, Dr. Ron Lorenzini, with

the big hands of a bricklayer, saved them all.

One twin was breech. Betty began hemorrhaging. But the doctor had saved the babies and he saved her.

More trouble came later. One of the twins wouldn’t eat. He couldn’t keep anything down and the weight just fell off him. The doctors in the NICU said we were losing the boy.

They came up with a Hail Mary play called “kangaroo care”: Mom sits in a rocking chair, holding the baby to her breast, skin on skin, in the hopes of stimulating his organs so he’d eat.

But Betty was receiving more emergency blood transfusions. She couldn’t rock him.

So they put me in that rocking chair. I held my son against my skin. They covered us with blankets. I rocked us. The nurses whisked in and out. The sky grew dark, then pink at the edges, then gray, and dark again. I rocked him for more than 24 hours straight, with my brother Peter com-ing in to give me a break every 12 hours.

What did I talk about with my son on my skin, alone in that room?

What life would be like, what he’d do, how he’d run. I promised and begged him and begged God. I bar-gained and prayed.

The next day the boy sipped a thimbleful and kept it down. They told Betty he’d live. She opened her arms for him. She looked into my eyes, then through them, smiling.

I don’t know what some judges think when using abstractions of the law to reject another nation’s offer of life while sentencing a child to death.

But I do know what some parents think, in those rooms with monitors and tubes, and nurses walking in soft shoes.

Parents don’t deal in the abstract.Parents hold their children. They

wonder at the miracle of life in their arms.

And they pray.

Why did working-class vot-ers choose a selfish, thin-skinned, petulant, lying,

narcissistic, boastful megalomaniac for president?

With the 2018 midterms around the corner, and prospective Democratic candidates already eye-ing the 2020 presidential race, the answer is important because it will influence how Democrats campaign.

One explanation focuses on eco-nomic hardship. The working class fell for Trump’s economic populism.

A competing explanation — which got a boost last week from a study published by the National Academy of Sciences — dismisses economic hardship and blames it on whites’ fear of losing status to blacks and immigrants. They were attracted to Trump’s form of identity politics: bigotry.

If Democrats accept the big-otry explanation, they may be more inclined to foster their own identity politics of women, blacks and Latinos.

And they’ll be less inclined to come up with credible solutions to widen-ing inequality and growing economic insecurity.

Yet the truth isn’t found in one explanation or the other. It’s in the interplay between the two.

Certainly many white working-class men and women were — and still are — receptive to Trump’s bigotry. But what made them receptive? Racism and xenophobia aren’t exactly new to American life. Fears of blacks and immigrants have been with us since the founding of the republic.

What changed was the economy. Since the 1980s, the wages and economic prospects of the typical American worker have stagnated. Two-thirds now live paycheck to

paycheck, and those paychecks have grown less secure.

Good-paying jobs have disappeared from vast stretches of the land. Despite the low official unemploy-ment rate, there are millions who are either too discouraged to look for work or work part-time but want full-

OUR VIEW

For the first time in four consecutive years, Tooele County lost its drought status last spring after a decent 2016-17 winter that brought above normal precipitation and soaked parched soil profiles and helped recharge aquifers.

But what a difference a year can make.As reported in last Thursday’s edition, Tooele County is again looking

down the barrel at a summer fraught with limited water and a clarion call for conservation and stewardship.

According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, which keeps tabs on water conditions across the country for the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, central and western Tooele County is currently in a state of moderate drought. But the eastern side of the county, from the Great Salt Lake to the Tooele/Juab county line, is in severe drought. That area includes all of the county’s major population centers in Tooele and Rush valleys, and nearby mountain ranges.

The U.S. Drought Monitor isn’t the only agency letting it known the county is headed for another summer of dry times. According to the Natural Resources Conservation Service, SnoTel sites in eastern Tooele County, those devices that measure the amount of water in snowpack, are showing some grim numbers for early May.

As of last week, SnoTel at Mining Fork in the Stansbury Mountains was at 5 percent of normal for May 1. Rocky Basin in the Oquirrh Mountains above Settlement Canyon was at 29 percent, and Vernon Creek at 20 percent.

With so little water-soaked snowpack to be had, local reservoirs that pro-vide irrigation water are behind. Tooele and Grantsville reservoirs are below capacity for early May.

But there’s another key point that ultimately is the why behind the what: Total precipitation for the 2017-18 water year in Tooele City measured 8.19 inches on April 30. The water year precipitation normal by April 30 is 12.19 inches, which means the current water year here is four inches behind nor-mal. In a place that normally gets only around 18 inches of total precipita-tion per water year, four inches is a big deficit.

With only five months left of the 2017-18 water year, and four of those five are historically the driest of the year, it doesn’t look like local water stats are going to improve. And if summer’s hot winds begin to blow, the county’s drought ranking may worsen.

With local reservoirs, snowpack and total precipitation behind normal, it appears water users face yet another summer of restrictions or calls for con-servation to make sure there’s enough water for all.

Where this is all headed is anyone’s guess. But according to NOAA’s long-range forecast center, the next 90 days for Tooele County are calling for above-normal temperatures and below normal precipitation. May is the last month of the water year that normally receives nearly two inches of precipi-tation. Time will tell if that holds true.

With such prevailing conditions, it appears certain the county’s most precious resource will be in limited supply — or worse — for yet another summer. Residents and officials should prepare for and expect water sup-plies to be a major concern. And they should respond with a commitment to stewardship and frugality to make sure none is wasted.

Who would have guessed that a Trump crowd 15 months into his presi-

dency would be chanting, “Nobel! Nobel! Nobel!”

As in Alfred Nobel, the Swedish inventor and philanthropist who created the prizes, including one for peace. The prize was on the minds of Trump fans thanks to developments on the Korean pen-insula, where Kim Jong Un has stopped testing missiles and started love-bombing the South.

Donald Trump has a typically modulated view of how much he had to do with this. “Everything,” he told his Michigan rally. If that’s too boastful, the president deserves credit for breaking with Barack Obama’s policy of “strategic patience” that effectively meant accepting North Korea’s march toward a nuclear-tipped ICBM.

Trump tightened up on a sanc-tions regime. And he undertook a Trumpian pressure campaign consisting of insults, fiery rhetoric, extreme ambiguity about his true intentions and braggadocio about the size of his nuclear button. If many in the United States were freaked out, it stands to reason that Kim took notice.

This is all to the good, but noth-ing we have seen so far from Kim is inconsistent with the decades-long North Korean diplomatic pattern of selling us the same fake conces-sions in exchange for sanctions relief and economic benefits.

Inspiring talk with the South Koreans about a breakthrough to a new era of peace? To paraphrase Barack Obama’s famous put-down of Mitt Romney, 1992, 2000 and 2007 all want their foreign policies back. High-flying joint declara-tions in each of those years proved meaningless.

Mothballing nuclear facilities as a sign of good faith? Kim is inviting the press to witness the shutter-ing of a tunnel complex used to test nuclear weapons. His father destroyed a cooling tower in front of the international media in 2008.

Promises to the U.S. to disarm? Pyongyang said it was ending its illicit plutonium program in the 1994 Agreed Framework. It said it was giving up “all nuclear weapons and existing nuclear programs” in 2005 as part of the so-called Six-Party Talks. It said in 2007 that it was agreeing to specific steps to follow through on its 2005 commit-ment. All came to naught.

This is why the ultimate test of Trump’s mettle isn’t getting Kim to the negotiating table, but being willing to walk away from it.

He’d do well to familiarize him-self with Ronald Reagan’s high-wire summit with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev at Reykjavik in 1986. They audaciously discussed eliminating all nuclear weapons, before the Soviets demanded an end to the SDI missile-defense pro-gram. Reagan walked away. The summit was considered a failure, but Reagan had convinced the Soviets that we weren’t going to give up our technological advan-tage over them.

Trump should conceive of his meeting with Kim as a continuation of his campaign of coercive diplo-macy. Should it (in all likelihood) fail to elicit a credible decision by the North to give up its nukes, it should be the pivot toward an even harsher clampdown on the North.

None of the great and good are going to shower Trump with accolades for being clear-eyed and tough-minded, but that’s what his negotiations with Kim require. The Nobel can wait.

After a four-year absence, Junior Jazz is coming back to Tooele City and Stansbury Park.

Derek Dalton, who runs the Junior Jazz program in Grantsville, is holding a meet-ing Friday at the Tooele County Chamber of Commerce to gauge interest and recruit vol-unteers to extend his Junior Jazz program to Tooele City and Stansbury Park. The meet-ing starts at 6 p.m.

“We have 500 kids involved in the Grantsville program,” Dalton said. “A number of those kids are from Tooele and every year we get more, so I know there’s an interest in Junior Jazz in Tooele. We’ve ran out of space to grow and we don’t want to turn kids away.”

Four years ago the Tooele County School Board canceled an agreement for the use of schools with the organization that was sponsoring Junior Jazz in Tooele and Stansbury

Park after the organization left the school district with an unpaid bill totaling $33,390.

At the time the school board said it would be willing to work with a new organiza-tion to bring Junior Jazz back to Tooele City and Stansbury Park. In the meantime both Tooele and Stansbury High school’s basketball teams enlarged their basketball camp programs to accommodate more youth.

Grantsville Junior Jazz was run by a different organiza-tion. It was unaffected by the school district’s termination of the agreement with Tooele City and Stansbury Junior Jazz.

“That old bill is water under the bridge now,” said school district superintendent Scott Rogers. “We have reached an agreement for the rental fee that is reasonable. We won’t be quite breaking even on all costs, but it will keep us from spending money that should be going to classrooms on facili-ties for recreation.”

Junior Jazz will pay $20

an hour for the use of school facilities with lights and heat. That amount is a reduced rate, according to Rogers.

The district will also hire some of the Junior Jazz volun-teers as part-time employees, allowing them to have keys to buildings to open the facilities and turn on lights, according to Rogers.

“We think it’s great to be part of a cooperative effort to let taxpayers use their build-ings for a recreation program for youth,” Rogers said. “I hope Junior Jazz can grow into a county-wide program.”

Dalton also called the fee reasonable.

“I’ve been running the Grantsville Junior Jazz for a while now and have developed a good relationship with the school district,” he said. “We have taken good care of the facilities and paid our bills.”

Dalton said he runs the 500 youth program with 56 coaches and around a dozen other vol-unteers.

With anticipated 1,200

youth from Tooele City and Stansbury Park joining Junior Jazz when the program expands, Dalton said he will need more coaches and vol-unteers to make the program work.

“We’re going to need about 120 coaches and several other volunteers to run the program,” he said. “That’s one reason for the meeting on May 11.”

Registration for Junior Jazz runs from June through December with the actual pro-gram kicking off in January and running through the first weekend of March.

Dalton said he organizes his Junior Jazz program into seperate boys and girls divi-sions grouped by grades from first grade through high school.

Additional information about Tooele Junior Jazz can be found at the Facebook page, Tooele Jr Jazz, according to Dalton.

Shuttle engine catches fire at Fassio Egg FarmSTEVE HOWESTAFF WRITER

North Tooele Fire District teams responded to a shuttle engine fire at the Fassio Egg Farm rail spur off Bates Canyon Road Thursday after-noon.

Employees at Fassio Egg Farm had used the shuttle engine to move rail cars before turning off the battery key switch and heading inside for lunch, according to NTFD spokesman Ryan Willden. When the employees came back outside, the shuttle engine was fully engulfed.

When the fire crews arrived to the fully involved fire, they were able to quickly knock

down the blaze, Willden said. An engine, water tender and brush truck from NTFD and the Tooele County Fire Warden responded to the incident, with a total of seven person-nel.

Willden said it was lucky there were calm weather conditions, which prevented the fire from spreading into nearby vegetation.

While the cause of the fire is under investigation, Willden said NTFD believes the fire was likely caused by an acci-dental electrical issue. [email protected]

time jobs.When I was secretary of

labor in the 1990s, I frequently visited the Rust Belt, Midwest and South, where blue-collar workers told me they were working harder than ever but getting nowhere.

Meanwhile, all the econo-my’s gains have gone to the richest 10 percent, mostly the top 1 percent. Wealthy individ-uals and big corporations have, in turn, invested some of those gains into politics.

As a result, big money now calls the shots in Washington — obtaining subsidies, tax breaks, tax loopholes (even Trump promised to close the “carried interest” loophole, yet it remains) and bailouts.

The near-meltdown of Wall Street in 2008 precipitated a recession that cost millions their jobs, homes and savings. But the Street got bailed out and not a single Wall Street executive went to jail.

The experience traumatized America. In the two years lead-ing up to the 2016 election, I revisited many of the places I had visited when I was labor secretary. People still com-plained of getting nowhere, but now they also told me the system was “rigged” against

them.A surprising number said

they planned to vote for Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump — the two anti-establishment candidates who promised to “shake up” Washington.

This whole story might have been different had Democrats done more to remedy wage stagnation and widening inequality when they had the chance.

Instead, Bill Clinton was a pro-growth “New Democrat” who opened trade with China, deregulated Wall Street and balanced the budget. (I still have some painful scars from that time.)

Barack Obama bailed out the banks but not homeown-ers. Obamacare, while impor-tant to the poor, didn’t allevi-ate the financial stresses on the working class, particularly in states that refused to expand Medicaid.

In the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton offered a plethora of small-bore policy proposals — all sensible but none big enough to make a difference.

Into this expanding void came Trump’s racism and xenophobia — focusing the cumulative economic rage on scapegoats that had nothing to do with its causes. It was hardly the first time in history a demagogue has used this playbook.

If America doesn’t respond

to the calamity that’s befallen the working class, we’ll have Trumps as far as the eye can see.

A few Democrats are getting the message, pushing ambi-tious ideas like government-guaranteed full employment, single-payer health care, indus-try-wide collective bargaining and a universal basic income.

But none has yet offered a way to finance these things, such as a progressive tax on wealth.

Nor have they offered a credible way to get big money out of politics. Even if the Citizens United decision isn’t overturned, big money’s influ-ence could be limited with generous public financing of elections, full disclosure of the source of all campaign contri-butions, and a clampdown on the revolving door between business and government.

Trump isn’t the cause of what’s happened to America. He’s the consequence — the product of years of stagnant wages and big money’s corrup-tion of our democracy.

If they really want to stop Trump and prevent future Trumps, Democrats will need to address these causes of Trump’s rise.

TUESDAY May 8, 2018A6 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

(AP) Microsoft is launching a $25 million initiative to use artificial intelligence to build better technology for people with disabilities.

CEO Satya Nadella announced the new “AI for Accessibility” effort as he kicked off Microsoft’s annual conference for software devel-opers. The Build conference in Seattle features sessions on cloud computing, artificial

intelligence, internet-connect-ed devices and virtual reality. It comes as Microsoft faces off with Amazon and Google to offer internet-connected ser-vices to businesses and organi-zations.

The conference and the new initiative offer Microsoft an opportunity to emphasize its philosophy of building AI for social good. The focus could help counter some of the ethical concerns that have risen over AI and other fast-developing technology, includ-ing the potential that software formulas can perpetuate or even amplify gender and racial biases.

The five-year accessibility initiative will include seed grants for startups, nonprofit organizations and academic researchers, as well as deeper investments and expertise from Microsoft researchers.

Microsoft President Brad Smith said the company hopes to empower people by accel-

erating the development of AI tools that provide them with more opportunities for inde-pendence and employment.

“It may be an accessibil-ity need relating to vision or deafness or to something like autism or dyslexia,” Smith said in an interview. “There are about a billion people on the planet who have some kind of disability, either permanent or temporary.”

Those people already have “huge potential,” he said, but “technology can help them accomplish even more.”

Microsoft has already exper-imented with its own acces-sibility tools, such as a “Seeing AI” free smartphone app using computer vision and narra-tion to help people navigate if they’re blind or have low vision. Nadella introduced the app at a previous Build confer-ence. Microsoft’s translation tool also provides deaf users with real-time captioning of conversations.

“People with disabilities are often overlooked when it comes to technology advances but Microsoft sees this as a key area to address concerns over the technology and compete against Google, Amazon and IBM,” said Nick McQuire, an analyst at CCS Insight.

Smith acknowledged that other firms, especially Apple and Google, have also spent years doing important work on accessibility. He said Microsoft’s accessibility fund builds on the model of the company’s AI for Earth initia-tive, which launched last year to jumpstart projects combat-ing climate change and other environmental problems.

The idea, Smith said, is to get more startups excited about building tools for people with disabilities — both for the social good and for their large market potential.

Other announcements at the Build conference include part-nerships with drone company DJI and chipmaker Qualcomm. More than 6,000 people are registered to attend, most of them developers who build apps for Microsoft’s products.

Facebook had its F8 devel-opers’ gathering last week. Google’s I/O conference begins Tuesday. Apple’s takes place in early June.

This is the second consecu-tive year that Microsoft has held its conference in Seattle, not far from its Redmond, Washington, headquarters.

Jean (St. Jeor) RushBeloved wife, mother,

Dearest Friend and Grandma Jean to many, peacefully joined her husband, parents and brother on Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2017, surrounded by those who cherished her. She was 89 years young.

Born Sept. 20, 1928, to Mick and Wanda St Jeor, Jean worked at Dugway Proving Ground and retired. For the

last 17 years she faithfully supported the Tooele County/ Valley Food Bank as a recep-tionist. She was the first per-son to greet you as you came in and always left everyone with a lasting impression. Jean’s smile was her greatest asset along with her wit.

If Jean was your friend, you were a friend forever.

A memorial service will be held May 11 at the Tooele City Cemetery at 11 a.m.

MATTERS OF FAITH OBITUARIESFrances Garcia

Frances E. Garcia passed away peacefully, May 4, 2018, after a long battle with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, which had its many challenges throughout her life. She was born on March 16, 1956, to Joe and the late Cora Candelario Garcia in Tooele, Utah. She graduated from Tooele High School in 1974.

She married Ron Romero in August 1973 and later divorced. She was blessed with three sons: Ron (Amy) Romero, Anthony (Karen) Romero and Nicholas Romero; and daughter Rechelle Romero, whom she had the opportunity to raise into a beautiful young woman.

She is also survived by her father Joe; three broth-

ers, Rick (Karen) Garcia, Anthony (Terri) Garcia and Greg (Ramona) Garcia; many grandchildren, great grand-children, nieces and nephews, all of whom she was deeply fond of.

She worked at Smiths for years, as well as at the Tooele County Courthouse for many years until her health no lon-ger allowed her to continue to work.

She truly lived life through simple pleasures, raising her children, chatting with friends and family, and spending any time she could with her grand-children. She created such wonderful memories with each and every one she has touched.

There will be a Funeral Mass at St. Marguerite Catholic Church, 15 S. 7th Street, Tooele, on Thursday, May 10 at 11 a.m. with a visitation prior

from 10-11 a.m. Interment will be at the Tooele City Cemetery.

We’d like to extend a special thank you to Rocky Mountain Care and Mountain West Medical Center for the special care given to Frances.

Jesus reminds us all the victory has been won

Editor’s note: “Matters of faith” is a column that provides local religious leaders a place to write about how their respective faiths provide hope, courage and strength in these modern times.

In considering my article for the Matters of Faith column this week, I was reminded

of what an interesting concept faith is, and how the word is used and misused.

It is little wonder the word can cause misunderstandings that extend to people of faith, who they are and how they are perceived. I realize the scope of that subject could form the basis of a book rather than a single article, so I need to focus my thoughts.

The opening verse of the 11th chapter of the book of Hebrews offers what appears to be a fairly straightforward definition of faith: “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” (Heb 11:1 NIV) When reading through the verses that follow as examples of faith, we find some names of people who may sound famil-iar. There are names like Noah, Abraham, Jacob and Moses, in addition to those not quite as memorable such as Rahab, Barak and Jephthah.

Additional study into these “heroes of the faith” reveals a group of flawed individuals who were far from perfect. Only one has a preface to her name that casts a shadow on her character. By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she

welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient. (Heb 11:31 NIV) In fairness, we could certainly add adjectives like liar, adul-terer, murderer, thief and other unflattering words to describe some of the other “heroes.” The point is not whom was worse, but rather to demon-strate people of faith have never been perfect.

The Bible, to its credit, has never attempted to create the veneer of perfection for indi-viduals, which unfortunately, has become a sort of standard in some religious cultures. This misunderstanding is most like-ly the basis for the criticism of hypocrisy; such as “I don’t go to church because the church is full of hypocrites.”

The beliefs held by people of faith have been misunder-stood, and as a result, often have led to undeserved criti-cism. One example is faith is a “crutch” used by those who cannot face the “real world.” The lives of people of faith are not perfect and neither are their circumstances. The ability of people of faith to function — even thrive — in negative circumstances is not a rose colored, Pollyanna view of the world. It is rather an under-standing of some basic biblical promises.

There are so many that even quoting them would exceed the parameters of this column. But as one example, when Jesus was concluding His remarks to His apostles fol-lowing what we call the Last Supper and just before His closing prayer, said. “I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33 NIV)

Jesus says the 12 men who had been His constant com-panions for the last three years were not going to be seeing Him for awhile and they would miss His presence, but He had given them information that would bring them peace. His followers would need that peace because there was not a possibility of trouble but rather trouble would be a fact of their lives.

But even in this trouble, Jesus reminds them the ulti-mate victory has been won, He has overcome. People of faith are not perfect but they have been forgiven, and even in dif-ficult times, have a promise of peace.

Girls to join Boy Scouts in February 2019Boy Scouts of America announces new name for co-ed youth programTIM GILLIESTAFF WRITER

Girls will have a chance to earn the Eagle Scout Award in Tooele County, according to Darwin Cook, chairman of the Deseret Peak District — the organization responsible for administering Scouting in Tooele County.

“We’re working with the Scout units chartered to the Elks Lodge in Tooele to recruit leaders so they can serve fami-lies with boys and girls,” Cook said.

The Boy Scouts of America’s national board of directors voted unanimously in October 2017 to welcome girls into its Cub Scout program and to develop a Scouting program for older girls that will allow them to earn the highest rank of Eagle Scout.

The Cub Scout program, for youth in grades first through fifth, will be open to both boys and girls starting in the fall of 2018, according to Cook.

“There were some packs in the Great Salt Lake Council that were part of the early adopters or pilot program for girls in Cub Scouts this past year,” he said.

Cook said his daughter, Miriam, is a Webelos in a Cub Scout Pack in Taylorsville because no packs in Tooele County were part of the early adopter program.

He added the Tooele Elks Lodge, which already has a Boy Scout troop, should be ready with a Scout Troop for girls when his daughter is ready to graduate to the pro-gram, formerly known as Boy Scouts, in 2019.

The Boy Scouts of America announced on May 2, 2018, that starting in February 2019, the name of that program will change from Boy Scouts to Scouts BSA. That also is when girls will be welcomed into its programs for youth ages 11-17.

“As we enter a new era

for our organization, it is important that all youth can see themselves in Scouting in every way possible. That is why it is important that the name for our Scouting program for older youth remain consistent with the single name approach used for the Cub Scouts,” said Michael Surbaugh, Chief Scout Executive of the Boy Scouts of America. “Starting in February 2019, the name of the older youth program will be ‘Scouts BSA,’ and the name of our iconic organization will continue to be Boy Scouts of America.”

Scouts BSA troops will be single gender with separate adult leadership. Organizations that currently charter a troop for boys may choose to add a troop for girls if they want too, according to an update on program for older girls available at www.scouting.org.

The Boy Scouts of America

does not anticipate making any changes in Scout programs to accommodate girls.

The update on programs for older girls reads: “Our existing programs are relevant for both young men and women. … As such the program for girls, ages 11-17 will be the same curriculum offered in the Boy Scout program.”

Boy and girl troops may have joint events, but accord-ing to existing safety and youth protection guidelines, boys and girls will not share tents and co-ed adult leadership for overnight activties will be required, according to Cook.

While Cook acknowledges that not everybody is excited about co-ed Scouts, he looks forward to the change.

“Allowing girls into Scouts will let chartered organiza-tions serve families better,” he said. “Now a family may have both their sons and daughters involved in one program.”[email protected]

TUESDAY May 8, 2018 A7TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

City Police Department for 15 years before he decided to run for Tooele County sheriff in 2014. He was serving as the Tooele City assistant chief of police at the time.

Adams is retired from the Salt Lake and Tooele County Sheriff Offices. He currently works for the Utah Department of Corrections as an Adult Probation and Parole officer.

The sheriff debate will feature questions for the can-didates, with each candidate having time for a follow-up or rebuttal answer.

The public is invited to sub-mit questions for the debate by private messenger at Tooele County Republican Party Facebook page or directly to Rabanne through Facebook messenger.

Questions will also be accepted in writing during the

debate and on Facebook Live while the debate is stream-ing on the Tooele County Republican Party Facebook page, according to Rabanne.

At the Tooele County Republican Party Convention held on April 13, Wimmer received 92 out of 116 dele-gate votes cast for 79 percent. Dean Adams received 24 del-egate votes.

Normally Republican candi-dates who receive more than 60 percent of the delegates’ votes advance to the general election without a primary. However, both Wimmer and Adams had secured enough signatures on petitions to place their names on the pri-mary ballot.

The primary election will be held June 26. Potential prima-ry voters who are not already registered to vote have until May 29 to register by mail or June 19 to register either online or at the Tooele County Clerk’s office.

To vote in the Republican primary, voters have until

May 30 to change their party affiliation. Only voters reg-istered as affiliated with the Republican Party may vote in the Republican primary.

Voters who are not affili-ated with any party have the option to affiliate with a party at a polling location, but vot-ers who are already affiliated with a party can’t change their affiliation at a polling loca-tion.

Party affiliation and voter registration status may be checked and changed at https://elections.utah.gov.

Excelsior Academy is locat-ed at 124 E. Erda Way in Erda. Doors for the debate open at 6 p.m. with the debate starting at 6:30 p.m. The debate will end at 8:30 p.m.

Other Republican Party candidates will be at the debate and will be available to greet the public before and after the debate, according to Rabanne. Only the sheriff can-didates will participate in the debate, she [email protected]

priority. This would not be possible without great commu-nity support and approval of the voted levy. We have been working hard on this for the last several years. Thank you, Tooele County residents.”

The increase was made pos-sible, in part, by an increase in the school levy approved by voters in the November 2017 election, according to a joint press release from the school district and TEA.

In 2017, the Tooele County School Board asked voters to approve an increase in the voted local school levy from .000600 to .001600 for the 2018 property tax year. The increase was expected to increase local revenue for schools by $4 million and draw an additional $3.7 million in matching funds from the state.

The school board promised

the public that the increased revenue would be used for sal-ary increases for all employee groups.

The levy increase passed with 51.6 percent of the vote.

The tentative negotiation announced Monday fulfills the promise to use the increase in the levy revenue for employee salaries, according to Rogers.

“Keeping promises is impor-tant,” he said. “We have great staff in this district. This is a great next step for the Tooele County School District and will help us to be more com-petitive with teacher salaries in Utah.”

In 2015, with an average annual salary for all teachers at $44,246, Tooele County School District ranked at the bottom of Utah’s 41 school districts for teacher com-pensation, according to the state superintendent’s annual report.

With the help of additional funding from the state, the

Tooele County School District raised the base beginning sal-ary from $33,142 to $37,000 in 2017.

That increase still placed the salary for teachers in Tooele County behind the salary being paid by school districts in Salt Lake County.

In 2017, the starting sal-ary for a new teacher in Salt Lake City School District was $43,886. Granite School District offered new teachers $41,000 while Jordan School District offered new teachers $40,000.

Tooele County School District lost several teachers to other school districts in a teacher pay war that Rogers described as “cannibalism” or “poaching.”

The $5,000 raise for 2018 will put Tooele County School District a lot closer to what neighboring school districts are paying, according to Rogers.

“Granite School District is

paying new teachers around $42,000 and Jordan district just approved a $42,800 salary for their new teachers,” Rogers said.

It may not be just salaries, but something appears to be keeping teachers in the dis-trict, according to Rogers.

Last year at this time, the school district had 42 vacan-cies posted. Currently the dis-trict has 19 openings, he said.

Rogers credits the school board and the community with the ability to attract and retain good teachers.

“The school board set a goal a few years ago to increase employee compensation,” Rogers said. “And we wouldn’t be able to do this without the voter approved levy increase.”

The tentative agreement will be forwarded to the TEA membership for ratification and to the Tooele County School Board for final [email protected]

vide the draft budget, and it is the council’s responsibility to adopt the final budget,” Winn said.

She explained that the added property tax revenue would address the City’s defi-cit from depleted savings, and the structural imbalance of the City’s general fund.

“We also are facing an increase in labor costs, includ-ing health care costs,” Winn said. “We would like to imple-ment a 2-percent cost of living allowance and I recommend-ed a 3-percent 401K match for employees. We want to bring some of our lower paying jobs up to a market rate, because again, we’re having trouble retaining employees.”

The City’s medical and den-

tal insurance provider is the Public Employees Health Plan, according to Kami Perkins, the City’s human resources director.

Each year, PEHP establishes premiums based on several factors, such as increasing costs for medical and prescrip-tion coverage, Perkins said.

The final rate for the upcoming year is 15 percent more than last year’s rate.

“PEHP was paid $1,485,811 in 2017. A 15-percent increase is almost $225,000,” Perkins said. “Both employees and the City contribute to the cost. A 2-percent COLA is being pro-posed based on the Consumer Price Index for 2017. It is also consistent with the COLA approved by the Social Security Administration for 2018.”

Winn said $300,000 is needed for capital projects and equipment requests.

“There also is a recom-mendation for a new police department building. The police station is very badly needed,” Winn said. “If any-body believes that is not the case, I would encourage them to make an appointment, stop by the police station and ask for a tour. They will come out of that building saying, ‘Yes, I am willing to pay an addition-al property tax to build a sta-tion for our police officers.’”

Prior to a property tax increase, a truth-in-taxation hearing would be held before August. The City needs to

notify Tooele County of its new property tax rate the first part of August, Winn said.

According to tax records for 2017, Tooele City’s portion of tax revenue for a $240,000 house was about $256 for the year. The mayor’s proposed tax rate would add as much as $300 to that amount.

In comparison for a $240,000 house, Tooele City residents’ property tax rate paid to Tooele County School District was $1,204, with $218 paid to Tooele County and $59 paid for assessing and collecting, according to tax records.

“This is not an easy deci-sion,” Winn said. “I have struggled with this recom-mendation. It is not easy to make a decision that is going to affect our lower income residents, our seniors specifi-cally. … But I believe that by the transparency we have shown the past two months, we have let our residents know what the money is going to be used for. There are no pay increases for elected officials.”

The mayor said the addi-tional income would be avail-able to the City in January after property taxes are col-lected by Tooele County.

“It’s been 36 years. I’m sorry we have to be the bad guys,” Winn said. “The coun-cil and I are willing to take that upon us.”

The City hosted a town hall meeting on Feb. 28 to show the public where the money is spent. Council members and the mayor spent a Saturday discussing budget issues dur-ing a retreat on March 3. The March 7 City Council meeting included budget presentations by Police Chief Ron Kirby and Fire Chief Rick Harrison.

The March 21 meeting included a budget presenta-tion by Brian Roth, parks and recreation director. The April 4 meeting included a budget presentation by Jim Bolser, community development and public works director.

The April 18 meeting included budget discussion for the library, attorney’s office, recorder’s office, human resources, finance department and administration.

The mayor and City Council held a second retreat to dis-cuss finances and other issues on April [email protected]

DARREN VAUGHANSPORTS EDITOR

The Grantsville boys ten-nis team finished third at the Region 13 championships at Liberty Park in Salt Lake City on Friday, with the Cowboys saving their best for last.

Grantsville’s second doubles team of Max Coon and Weston Tuckett had their backs against the wall in their champion-ship match against Rowland Hall’s Soren Feola and Justin Peng, dropping the first set 6-2

and falling behind early in the second set. Coon and Tuckett rallied to take a 5-4 lead in the second set before falling behind 6-5, but came back again to win the set in a tie-break. They then took the third set by a score of 6-3 to capture the region championship.

Grantsville, which finished third in the tournament behind champion Rowland Hall and

second-place Waterford, also had its first doubles team of Andrew Dalton and Jase Wilson reach the finals. However, they ran into the odds-on favorite to win the state championship, fall-ing to the Waterford duo of Arvind Mudaliar and Tarun Martheswaran 6-1, 6-0 to fin-ish second.

The pressure didn’t bother her one bit. Quite the opposite, actually. She tossed a five-inning one-hitter and went 3-for-3 with three doubles and two RBIs to help the Cowboys to a 10-0 win over the Patriots, getting Grantsville’s state-title defense

off to a solid start.“Before every game, Coach

tells us not to underestimate any team,” Peterson said. “You look at stats and you look at scores, but you never know what they have. I just came out and tried to play the ‘A’ game like we had to last year (in the champion-ship game) against Bear River. I was expecting their best.”

About the only thing that went wrong for Peterson and the Cowboys (20-5) came in the first inning, when she was

thrown out at third base while trying to stretch a double into a triple. The Cowboys also had trouble adjusting to Providence Hall pitcher Audrey Eckhart early in the game, managing only a single run off a Laura Sandberg sacrifice fly that scored Kylee Leach in the sec-ond inning as they went through the lineup for the first time. But once they got used to Eckhart’s slower pace, the Cowboys erupted for nine runs on 10 hits in the third and fourth innings, quickly turning the game into a

The Grantsville baseball team couldn’t get much going offensively against South Sevier ace Easton Hunt in Saturday’s Class 3A second-round playoff game, but the Cowboys’ confidence never wavered.

That’s because Grantsville had its own ace, Brady Arbon, on the mound. That meant everyone — even Arbon — could relax, since the Cowboys knew their laid-back leader didn’t need much in the way of run support. And when they needed it, junior Isaac Riding and soph-

omore Parker Thomas deliv-ered, helping Grantsville hold off South Sevier for a 2-1 win to remain in the undefeated side of the bracket as the state tournament enters its second week.

“When we go out there every inning to throw it around, he starts singing the song that’s playing (on the public-address system),” Riding said of Arbon. “We’re like, ‘Brady, are you OK, man?’”

Grantsville (22-3) only had two hits in the game, which

wasn’t altogether unexpected against Hunt, who came in with an earned-run average of 0.89. Hunt only allowed two baserunners through the first three innings, both of whom were hit by pitches, while the Rams scraped together a run in the first inning off a one-out double by Treven Heath and a two-out RBI single by Brodee Tebbs.

But when the pressure was on, Grantsville came through. Brody Barney was hit by a pitch to lead off the bottom of the fourth inning, and Arbon

Grantsville junior Isaac Riding had four RBIs in the Cowboys’ 8-0 win over American Leadership Academy on Saturday in the first round of the Class 3A state baseball playoffs.

“First of all, I’d like to thank my coaches,” Riding said. “I just felt like I had

swagger today. I don’t know what it was, just woke up on the right side of the bed, I guess.”

The first baseman went 3-for-3 from the plate with a walk and three singles. He also stole two bases and scored twice in the opening-round blowout.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’d like to help make life better for animals, but I’m not able to volunteer at a local shel-ter because my job and fam-ily take up too much time. I don’t have a lot of extra cash to give away, either. Is there anything else I can do? — Sarah in Wheeling, West Virginia

DEAR SARAH: Few of us can really dedicate the time or money we’d like to give to

improve animal welfare. All we can do sometimes is look for an opportunity that fits what we are able to give. More and more individuals and businesses are coming up with creative ways for their com-munity to help pets and their owners.

For example, a store in Fort Gratiot, Michigan, converted a walk-in cigar humidor to a pantry for donated pet food and treats, encouraging members of the community to donate to it with the goal of helping elderly residents feed their pets.

A program begun by the Humane Society of the United States, called Pets for Life, helps animal-care and social-welfare advocates start com-munity outreach programs that can put needy pet own-

ers in touch with agencies or charities that can help their pets get food, medical care or other assistance.

And of course, there was the community-driven assistance given to pets and rescue organizations on the Gulf Coast in the wake of two terrible hurricanes in 2017, which enabled the rescue of stranded and lost pets, and the rehoming of adoptable pets to shelters in other areas of the U.S.

So keep an ear to the ground and an eye open for the chance to help where and when you can.

Trivia Test Answers

Q: I was watching “Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome,” and I really liked the female lead. Can you tell me a bit about her and what else I can catch her in? — Jeff T., via email

A: Lili Bordan, daughter of legendary Hungarian film actress Iren Bordan, played Dr. Becca Kelly in that “BSG” movie. When I spoke with her recently, she told me what an important role it was for her.

“That was pretty meaty. It was the female lead of that episode,” Lili said. “It was originally made to be a pilot for a prequel series, but it didn’t get picked up. It ended up airing as a TV movie on

Syfy and came out on Blu-ray a few months later. That was a really important role for me in my career. It was one of those roles where my character is an integral part of the story and really does drive the story forward — and it’s all because of this secret she has.”

Next up for Lili is playing a pivotal role in “Book Club,” which stars Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen and Mary Steenburgen, and comes out on the big screen May 17. Of the movie, Lili told me: “It’s about how a book can change your life. And it’s about intimacy and love at any age. My scene is with Mary Steenburgen and Craig T. Nelson. When you get to work with people like them, and also share a movie with some of your idols like Diane Keaton and Jane Fonda — whom I both love and I think are such different types of art-ists — it’s such an honor, and I’m just super excited to have been part of it.”

Every child has to learn the alphabet before learning to read, so

some toys for those under 5 years old have been “teach-ing toys.” Blocks were the first. The oldest mention of alphabet blocks was in 1693 in England. But blocks with letters and pictures were not available for most families until 1820 when large num-bers of sets were made in a factory. Well-to-do young girls educated in the 18th century learned the alphabet while sewing samplers. They had to be able to stitch iden-tification on all the family linens when they married. Most toys were made to teach religion, like a carved wooden Noah’s ark, or to teach a skill like cooking using a toy stove, pots and pans. Toy makers created a few teaching toys, cards with letters and cloth alphabet books.

A rare, famous teaching toy is the “Alphabet Man” or “Yankee Schoolmaster.” The 10-inch-tall iron figure of a man had an arm that moved when a lever was pushed. The man blinked his eyes, raised his left arm and pointed to a hole high on his chest. A letter appeared and the student had to name it. The man is dressed like a schoolmaster and looks like a stern teacher. No one knows who made this complicated toy that was patented in

1884. Or why his right arm is held behind his back and his index finger is pointing to the side. Several of the men have sold in the past decade

• • •Q: I have my mother’s

antique satin wedding dress from 1931. It’s in perfect condition. I would like to know if it’s worth anything or if anyone would want it.

A: Yes, there is interest in old wedding dresses and gowns. You could donate it to a local historical museum or an organization that will resell it for a charitable cause. You could sell it to a vintage clothing store. Or it could be turned into something else. Old wed-ding dresses can be used to make christening gowns or bride or princess outfits for small children who like to play dress-up. The fabric can be repurposed to make pil-lows or enclosed in a locket, frame or Christmas orna-ment. It also can be used to make scarves, decorate baby blankets, bassinet skirts or wedding or baby photograph albums.

MONDAY’S WARM COCOA

Have you tried a reformulated fuel for restarting winterized hearts?

Ear plugs were set firmly in place and I was focused on pulling the

starting cord of my line trim-mer. This was the first time I’d wintered my landscaping machines using newly formu-lated anti-aging fuel. I was hoping it lived up to its pro-claimed benefits. And this was my analysis of those claims, the first attempted start for the season.

“Here goes nothing,” I said while giving the cord a pull.

I’d been here every spring for years and years. With traditionally formulated fuel,

I’d expend all my energy, for seemingly ages, to get even a sputter out of awakening machines. When the trimmer sputtered and quit on the first tug, my heart was cheered. I pulled again. It sputtered and quit. Then, on the third try, it started, sputtered and kept running, roughly. I held it in my hands and fiddled with the

accelerator switch, just enough to keep coaxing it on until it ran smoothly. That’s when I noticed that a car had rolled up in the driveway behind me.

The combination of blocked ears and trimmer noise had deadened my senses to the arrival of a guest. I turned off my triumphantly sprung, back-to-life machine with the confidence of “new convert” to reformulated fuel, to greet my visitors.

A kind voice wafted out from an open car window. “Hi! I made you some bread. It’s banana bread.”

It was Siokapessi Tilini, one of my newer neighbors. I was a little surprised by her gesture, because I don’t often get visits from my neighbors. Conversely, I wasn’t surprised at all because of the smiling face in front of me. From the first time I met Siokapessi and her husband, Tevita, I’ve marveled at their genuinely warm and open nature. It was the same at this moment. Her smile and presence were as if a second sun had begun to light my day. I thanked her and she backed out of my driveway.

I walked back to my trim-

mer, marveling at fuel refor-mulation, and the wonder of how the kindness of one per-son can reformulate an entire day, environment or life.

“Reformulation of gasoline and diesel fuel removes many pollutants at the refinery, so smog-forming compounds never reach the tailpipe,” Greg Easterbroom has writ-ten. “Developed in the late 1980s by chemists at the Arco oil company, petroleum reformulation is a social boon most people don’t even know occurred.”

Easterbroom’s words passed

through my mind again as my ear plugs were set firmly in place and I focused on pulling the starting cord of my line trimmer. I now wondered if the Tilinis were the equivalent of a reformulated fuel for winter-ized hearts. Both are a social boon with proven, marvelous results. And this is my confir-mation of both claims, the first successful start for the season for my line trimmer, and my warmer, grateful heart.

Runners hit Oquirrh trails in 2nd annual Serengeti

Nearly 80 runners, more than double from its inaugu-ral year, traversed Oquirrh Mountain trails on April 28 in the second annual Serengeti.

The 3.1-mile, 6.2-mile and half marathon (13.1 miles) events featured runners pri-marily from Tooele Valley and the Wasatch Front who endured the rocky, dirt trails above Erda, Stansbury Park and Pine Canyon.

“We even had one runner from Aurora, Colorado, and another from Ruppert, Idaho,” said organizer Jimmy Thomas of Tooele.

When the dust settled, Luke Roberts garnered first place in the half marathon in the time of 1:48.07, followed closely by Matt Ross of Murray.

Mason James of Grantsville broke the hour barrier and earned top honors in the 6.2-mile race in 59:25. Ross Mableson and Michael Evans finished second and third respectively in the 10-kilome-ter race.

Erda high schooler Xavier Jefferies grabbed first place honors in the 3.1-mile trail run, followed by Tooele run-ners Joe Risner and James Calderon.

“We were exceptionally pleased with the turnout for this year’s Serengeti trail race,” Thomas said. “Runners enjoyed perfect weather and running conditions Saturday.”

He noted that 30 runners, ranging from 8 years old to 62, participated in the popular 5K/3.1- mile event.

The challenging half-mar-athon course rolled along the Oquirrh Wave and featured an elevation gain of 1,560 feet.

Thomas is in the final stages of securing all necessary per-mits to stage the second race this season in Settlement Canyon, set for a Saturday in September.

blowout.“We just had to get through

the lineup that one time and see what (Eckhart’s) got,” Taylor said. “Then, they just kind of settled down and hit the ball.”

Grantsville’s surge began with an infield single by Maizie Clark to lead off the bottom of the third. Peterson drove Clark in with a double to left field. After a sacrifice bunt by Hailey Delaney advanced speed-up runner Sami Linares to third base, Breana Hiatt ripped an RBI double to right to put Grantsville up 3-0. Addison Smith followed with a two-run home run to left to make it 5-0.

The fourth inning was a continuation of the third. Clark again led off with an infield single and scored on a double to left by Peterson. Linares was called out for interfering with the Providence Hall shortstop on Delaney’s ground ball, and it appeared that the Patriots might get out of the inning without further harm when Hiatt grounded out for the sec-ond out. But Smith was hit by a pitch and Leach followed with an RBI single to left that scored Delaney, setting the stage for an RBI single by Sandberg and an RBI double by pinch-hitter Rylee Udom to increase the lead to 10-0.

“That’s kind of been our thing this year, to do it in five or less,” Peterson said. “We want to just

prepare ourselves, tighten down really fast and score a lot of runs really quick.”

Peterson then slammed the door on Providence Hall, retir-ing the Patriots in order in the top of the fifth to end the game by the 10-run rule. Peterson had seven strikeouts and two walks in the contest.

“She did awesome today,” Taylor said.

Grantsville will face South Sevier in the second round of the tournament Thursday at 10 a.m. at the Spanish Fork Softball Complex. The winner of that game will advance to Friday’s quarterfinals, while the loser will meet San Juan in an elimi-nation game at 4 p.m. [email protected]

Grantsville senior Kylee Leach drives the ball into the outfield during Saturday’s Class 3A first-round playoff game against Providence Hall. The Cowboys will face South Sevier in the second round of the state tournament Thursday in Spanish Fork.

followed with an infield single two batters later. Jake Paxton was then hit by a pitch to load the bases with one out, and Riding hit a deep fly ball to left that allowed Barney to tag up and score from third with the game-tying run.

“I can’t say enough about our kids,” Grantsville coach Aaron Perkins said. “We haven’t been behind a lot this year, and we never lost our focus the entire game. I knew we were going to come back and win that game, just because of our attitude and our effort and how Brady was controlling the mound.”

Arbon needed just six pitches to get through the top of the fifth inning, setting the stage for the

Cowboys to take the lead. Zach Capel drew a leadoff walk and advanced to sec-ond on Coy Johnson’s sacri-fice bunt. Barney walked to bring Thomas to the plate, and the sophomore made no mistake, ripping an RBI single up the middle on an 0-2 pitch to drive in Capel with what proved to be the game-winning run.

That was thanks to Arbon, whose brutal efficiency kept South Sevier off the board. After Heath’s leadoff single in the top of the sixth, he got Hunt to fly out to left and Tebbs hit a grounder back to Arbon for an inning-ending double play. In the seventh, he sandwiched a pair of strikeouts against Hayden Payne and Chayston Blake around a groundout by Carter Anderson to bring the game to a close.

“I was just trying to hit my spots and trust my defense,” Arbon said. “I know if I just throw it at them and they put it in play, they’ve got my back.”

Grantsville’s win means the Cowboys will face Carbon, the Region 14 champion, at 11 a.m. Thursday at Kearns High School in a quarterfinal game. The winner will advance to Friday’s semi-finals at 4:30 p.m. against either Richfield or Manti, while the loser will play Friday at 11 a.m. against Summit Academy, ALA, Union or Emery in an elimi-nation game.

“Carbon’s got another kid like (Hunt),” Perkins said. “It doesn’t matter when we play them — we’ve got to beat them all.”[email protected]

Cowboys continued from page B1

“The one thing Isaac’s done all year is Isaac battles at the plate,” Grantsville head coach Aaron Perkins said. “He just battles. He fouls pitches off. I’m sure he drives pitchers crazy, but he just got the barrel on the ball today, and things worked out for him. Like I said, I can’t say enough about him today.”

The game was tight through four innings until the Cowboys got a feel for American Leadership starter Holland Morley. Grantsville put up three runs in the fifth inning and added another four in the sixth.

Sophomore Parker Thomas earned the win for the Cowboys, going 5.2 innings and allowing two hits as he struck out five Eagles. Junior

Justin Richardson came on for 1.1 innings of relief to hold ALA hitless as he struck out two.

“I can’t say enough about our kids today,” Perkins said.

Morley went 5.1 innings in the loss, giving up five earned runs on eight hits. He struck out eight Cowboys and walked five.

Grantsville senior Keagan Landon went 2-for-3 with an RBI in the win, while senior Brady Arbon added a 2-for-3

day with three runs scored. Richardson, senior shortstop Coy Johnson senior Brody Barney and senior Jacob Paxton earned a hit each.

Paxton and Richardson both had an RBI. Barney and Landon each stole a pair of bases.

“It feels great,” Riding said of the win. “You come into it knowing you have home-field advantage, and you want to rep it well. You just try to play the best that you can.”

Opener continued from page B1

“I’m sure he drives pitchers crazy, but he just got the barrel on the ball today, and things worked out for him.”

Grantsville baseball coach, on Isaac Riding

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Chris Paul says that mid-range jumpers are like layups for him.

The Houston Rockets have emphasized dunks and 3-pointers in becoming one of the NBA’s most efficient offenses but Paul’s in-between jumpers proved to be the dif-ference when the long-range shots weren’t falling.

“I wasn’t joking about that,” Paul said of his layup com-ment. “If (Rudy) Gobert’s going to back, that’s what I’m going to shoot.”

Paul had 27 points and 12 rebounds while James Harden scored 24 points to power the Houston Rockets to a 100-87 win over the Utah Jazz on Sunday night, tak-ing a 3-1 lead in the Western Conference semifinal series.

“It showed a lot of grit for us to come in here and win

two games,” Paul said.Paul, playing the sidekick

to Harden for most of his first season in Houston, took center stage, controlling the tempo and getting to his favorite spots as the Rockets led from start to finish.

“Chris is shooting those shots like a layup,” Harden said. “He was extremely aggressive tonight, which we need from him.”

Donovan Mitchell scored 25 before fouling out and Joe Ingles had 15 for the Jazz.

Mitchell started finding lanes to the basket late and got the Jazz within 85-80 after he fueled a 10-2 run, sending the crowd into a fren-zy. But Paul, who matched his scoring high for this playoff run, hit a pull-up jumper and found Trevor Ariza for a 3-pointer to put the Rockets back up by double digits and

they never looked back.Houston, which has been

known for their offensive fire-power, put forth a disruptive defensive effort.

Clint Capela, the anchor of the Houston defense, had 12 points, 15 rebounds and six blocks, one of which featured a Dikembe Mutombo-like fin-ger wag in the fourth quarter.

“We missed 22 shots at the rim,” Utah coach Quin Snyder said. “We had our chances and didn’t convert. Some of them were contested. Some of them were open. You’re not going to get any better shot.”

The Rockets went up by 15 in the second quarter before the Jazz closed to 51-46 on back-to-back three-point plays by Mitchell. Utah trailed 58-48 at the half.

Neither team was accu-rate from beyond the arc as the Jazz were 7-for-29 and

Houston went 10-for-38.“There’s all different ways

to win. We’re not strictly a jump-shooting team,” D’Antoni said. “Chris has the mid-range, James gets to the hole and you got Clint down there. We’ve got a lot of other stuff we can go to.”

Already without Ricky Rubio, the Jazz lost back-up point guard Dante Exum in the third quarter, also to a hamstring injury. Exum was a surprising offensive spark for the Jazz with 9 points in the first period, but picked up three fouls guarding Harden.

“Houston is that good. Give them credit. They know how to control a game,” Snyder said. “In spite of that, I thought we just hung in there and took shots and kept coming and kept coming and eventually couldn’t get over the hill.”

Tip-insRockets: Harden’s 14

first-quarter points were the most for him in the open-ing period this postseason. ... Flying to close out on an Ingles’ 3-pointer in the second quarter, P.J. Tucker raked the Jazz sharpshooter across the face and earned a Flagrant 1. ... Capela and Mitchell got double technical fouls fight-ing for rebound in the fourth quarter and Houston coach Mike D’Antoni got another for his reaction to the play.

Jazz: Rubio missed his fourth straight game due to a left hamstring strain suffered in the opening round but is close to returning.

Shot blockersRudy Gobert is a lead-

ing candidate for Defensive Player of the Year but Capela has been the most signifi-cant deterrent to getting to

the basket in this series. He altered 20 shots in this game and has 13 blocks in the series while also making his pres-ence known on the offensive end with double-digit scoring in each contest. “Every single night, he has our back,” said Harden, who got in Capela’s face and yelled his approval at the end of the game. “He doesn’t get a lot of credit for it and doesn’t ask for a lot.”

Near the end of the game, Capela told D’Antoni he needed a rest. But the Rockets called a time out and then the big center said he could finish. He went out and got a couple more blocks. “He pole-vaulted over the hurdle. He cleared it by a lot. The guy’s incredible the whole time,” D’Antoni said.

Up nextThe series shifts back to

Houston for Game 5.

Paul scores 27, Harden has 24 as Rockets beat Jazz

DETROIT (AP) — Stan Van Gundy will not return to the Detroit Pistons as coach or presi-dent of basketball operations.

The Pistons announced Van Gundy’s departure Monday, with owner Tom Gores saying it was a difficult decision. He said Van Gundy wanted to return for a fifth season with the team.

“I am grateful to Stan for everything he’s done for the Pistons and for the city of

Detroit,” Gore said. “He rebuilt the culture of our basketball team, re-instilled a winning atti-tude and work ethic, and took us to the playoffs two years ago. He went all-in from Day One to positively impact this franchise and this community.

“But over the past two seasons our team has not pro-gressed, and we decided that a change is necessary to regain our momentum,” Gores said.

The Pistons went 39-43 this season, missing the playoffs for the third time in four years under Van Gundy. They’ve made the postseason just once in the past nine seasons, and even a blockbuster trade for Blake Griffin wasn’t enough to salvage 2017-18.

A decade ago, the Pistons were one of the game’s most respected organizations after reaching the Eastern Conference

finals six straight years and win-ning the NBA title in 2004. They sank quickly into irrelevance after that. Detroit missed the playoffs the final five seasons of Joe Dumars’ tenure as team president, and Gores — who took over as owner in 2011 — eventually brought Van Gundy in, giving him authority in the front office in addition to his coaching duties.

The Pistons made the playoffs

in Van Gundy’s second season at the helm, but they couldn’t build on that breakthrough. This past season was particularly disappointing because it may have been the most productive of center Andre Drummond’s career.

With Drummond leading the way, Detroit started 19-14 and won on the road against the likes of Golden State, Oklahoma City and Boston. Then an ankle

injury to point guard Reggie Jackson derailed the season, and not even the trade for Griffin in late January was enough to push the Pistons to the playoffs in their first season at downtown Detroit’s new Little Caesars Arena.

“Stan is a competitor and he wanted to finish the job,” Gores said. “He retooled a roster that we think can be very competi-tive in the East.”

Van Gundy won’t return to Pistons as coach or team president

TUESDAY May 8, 2018B8 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

DARREN VAUGHANSPORTS EDITOR

The Stansbury baseball team had Bonneville right where it wanted the Lakers in the late stages of Monday afternoon’s do-or-die game in Washington Terrace — a tie game in extra innings with a postseason berth hanging in the balance.

Unfortunately for the Stallions, the final result didn’t go their way. A perfect throw from the outfield scuttled a would-be go-ahead sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth inning for Stansbury, and Bonneville took advantage in the bottom of the frame to score the game-winning run on a walk-off, bas-es-loaded groundout for a 5-4 win that ended the Stallions’ playoff hopes.

“It’s been a long, rough sea-

son,” Stansbury junior Austin Woodhouse said. “We’ve had to come through some obstacles, but I’m proud of the team. We came through a lot and we finished strong. There’s games along the road that we should have won, but there’s nothing we can do about it now.”

Stansbury (7-17, 6-12 Region 11), which put itself in the precarious position of having to win its final game of the season on the road with a disappointing 8-4 loss to the Lakers at home Friday after-noon, found itself on the wrong end of a 3-0 score through two innings on Monday. But in the top of the fourth inning, the top of the Stallions’ lineup

came through in a big way, as freshman Cayden Clark cut the Lakers’ lead to 3-1 with a sac-rifice fly that drove in Conner Fackrell. Woodhouse followed with a two-run RBI double that scored Colton Sundloff and Braydon Allie to tie the game, and Conner Kincaid drove in Woodhouse with the go-ahead run.

However, the Stallions were bitten by too many errors in the field. Clinging to a one-run lead with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning, Stansbury got what appeared to be an inning-ending ground ball, but the throw to first base was off-tar-get, allowing the Lakers to tie the game with one of their four unearned runs. Stansbury com-mitted five errors in all, roughly double their season average.

“There’s little things we need to work on, and that’s what an offseason’s for,” Woodhouse said. “All we can do is improve from here. Our team has so much talent. We’re there, but we just need to do the small things. There’s not one guy here who’s hitting 1.000 or has no errors. That’s why it’s a team sport.”

Woodhouse went 3-for-4 in the season finale, while Kincaid was 2-for-3 and Konner Mason was 2-for-4. Kaden Nicholes pitched the first three innings of the game, allowing three runs on three hits with three strikeouts and five walks before giving way to junior Jaydan Kelsch.

Kelsch allowed two unearned runs on three hits with a strike-out and three walks in 4 2/3

innings.The loss proved to be the

final game for seniors Hunter Anderson, Hayden Beck, Justin Matthews, Jayson Blake, Mason and Nicholes. Anderson and Beck served as captains along with juniors Woodhouse and Kincaid this season.

“They’re going to do great things,” Woodhouse said of the graduating seniors. “We’ve got three going on missions, one maybe playing college baseball and one going to serve in the Air Force. I wish them the best of luck.”[email protected]

Stallions fall short in finale

last year, came into the region tournament as the No. 1 seed at third singles this season and was able to advance to the finals. He was beaten by Rowland Hall’s Peter Chase, the No. 3 seed, 6-1, 6-1.

First singles player Seth Beckett and second singles player Peter Kurtz each fin-ished fourth in their brackets and advanced to the state tour-nament, which begins Friday at Liberty Park. Beckett will meet Grand’s Elton Kunze-Jones, the second seed from Region 15, in the opening round. Kurtz will meet Region 14’s runner-up, Alexander Stewart of Gunnison, in his first match, and Whitworth will face Adam Fu of Wasatch Academy, Region 14’s fifth seed.

Dalton and Wilson drew Manti’s Dallin Cox and Mason Thompson, who finished fourth in Region 15, for their first match. Coon and Tuckett will face Brock Overly and Spencer Overly of Gunnison, the sixth seed from Region 14.Region 11 championships

Stansbury’s Erik Leary earned himself a favorable draw for this week’s Class 4A championships at Liberty Park by defeating Juan Diego’s Sam Nelson for the Region 11 first singles championship last week at Ogden High School.

Leary will be joined at the state tournament by the rest of his team, as Stansbury was able to qualify all of its players. Nate Leary finished fourth at second singles and Jace Anderson was fourth at third singles. Scott Ruebush

and Brady Kimberling finished second to Park City’s Charlie Lambert and Quin Dicesaris at first doubles, and Lance Hardy and Carl Jackson defeated Tooele’s Brandon Day and Justin Kenison for third place at second doubles.

Erik Leary will face Snow Canyon’s Josh Sodorff, the fourth seed from Region 9, in his first-round match Thursday afternoon. Nate Leary will meet Region 10 champion Christian Craig of Orem, and Anderson faces Region 12 champion Erik Ellis of Ridgeline.

Ruebush and Kimberling meet Region 9 third seed Austin Meyer and Broden Lund at first doubles, and Tooele’s Carl Raddatz and Brandon Wong will play Region 9 cham-pions Porter Aitken and Gibson Crawford of Pine View.

At second doubles, Hardy and Jackson will meet Region 10 runners-up Ben Boyack and Tyler Thompson of Spanish Fork. Day and Kenison will play Region 10 champions Jacob Montgomery and Trevor Wilcox of [email protected]

Tooele senior Emily Webber has certainly left her mark on the Buffaloes’ girls basketball program, with All-Region and All-County accolades to go with a college scholarship to Mount Hood (Ore.) Community College.

She also has the distinction

of being just one of four play-ers ever to win the prestigious Jackie White-Kimber Award twice as the Tooele girls bas-ketball player who displays the best leadership skills and character while still being an integral part of the team.

“I was kind of surprised, not because I hadn’t worked hard or anything, but because I hadn’t known of too many people who had won it twice, in their junior and senior year,” Webber said. “I was really proud because I felt like I really pushed myself throughout the season. I always wanted to get the award again because it really showed to me that I did the best that I could and people were noticing it.”

Webber, who also won the award following her junior season, joins Lizzie Stewart (2010-11 and 2011-12) as the only players to win the award in consecutive seasons. Karie Johnson Frederickson (1990-91, 1992-93) and Michelle Cooper (1994-95, 1996-97) are the only other two-time win-ners.

Webber averaged a team-leading 11.5 points per game this season, helping Tooele post a 13-10 overall record. The Buffaloes finished third in Region 11 this season.

But it wasn’t just the stats that meant a lot to Webber.

“It is (about) how hard you work, but it’s also how you are as a player character-wise,” Webber said. “Do you build your other teammates up? Are you classy to the other players? That’s something I’ve tried to do, and sometimes it can be

hard because there’s so many emotions in every single game. I thought that was really cool that it wasn’t just about your skill level, but the mental part, too.”

The award is named for Jackie White-Kimber, a former Tooele girls basketball player who died in 1988 after battling cancer. Longtime Tooele coach Susan Rydalch, now retired, personally selects each win-ner, who receives a gold ring personally designed by 1989-90 award winner Linda Matekel Kimball.

Other White-Kimber Award winners include Lisa Tate (1988-89), Shannon Lopez

(1991-92), Stacie Blackburn (1993-94), Amanda Kidd (1995-96), Lindsey Clegg (1997-98), Leah Roberts (1998-99), Kenzie Briggs Newton (1999-2000), KC Bleazard (2000-01), Lindsay Stahl (2001-02), Alex Ontiveros (2002-03), Staci Patch (2003-04), Elva Banford (2004-05), Meredith Nigh (2005-06), Samantha Thomas (2006-07), Alexis Bird (2007-08), Mattie Snow (2009-10), Kenzie Alvarez (2012-13), Courtney Schiwal (2013-14), Taylor Thomas (2014-15) and Paris Stewart (2015-16).
