If a municipal park district ran Auburn’s parks and recreation program, costs and savings would result in a net benefit to the City
of Auburn of about $5 million.Freed from shouldering the
cost of running the program, City Financial Director Shelley Coleman told members of the Planning and Community De-velopment Committee this week,
Auburn’s leaders could then direct funds to other critical purposes, including streets.
Councilwoman Nancy Backus wondered what extra park benefits or improvements voters could expect in return for the
extra tax money they would put out to support an MPD.
Coleman presented the bones of the idea to the committee Monday.
Municipal park districts are not uncommon in the state of Wash-
ington. The City of Tacoma has had one in place since the turn of the last century. The City of Pull-man created one several years ago to keep its parks program solvent. The City of Des Moines created

Conflict continues in PacificBy SHAWN SKAGER
Now that Pacific’s existence is ensured for another year, the political infighting in the city has nastied up a notch.
At Monday’s City Council meeting, Councilmember Gary Hulsey called out Mayor Cy Sun for statements on his
blog.In a recent
posting at www.mayor-cysun.blog-spot.com, Sun questioned Hulsey’s mili-tary service record and his service as
a Washington state command-er of the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW).
According to Sun’s blog, VFW Washington State Adjutant George “Corky” Ber-thiaume told him that Hulsey had never served as a state commander of the VFW.
“What I have to say from my meeting with Corky, are the fol-lowing,” Sun wrote. “Hulsey was not ever a state commander for any Veterans organization. He lied under oath and in Legisla-tive session.”

Film scholar sheds light on Native Americans on filmBy SHAWN SKAGER
Much of what we think we know we learn from movies.
This includes pervasive impressions and prejudices about Native Americans.
“Indians have been more
defined in the eyes of other people by their portrayal in the movies,” said Lance Rhoades, a University of Washington film scholar.

A superior court judge on Jan. 10 sentenced Aenoy Phasay to 15 years in prison for the 2010 shooting death of an Auburn man.
A jury last month con-victed the Kent man, 31, of second-degree murder for the shooting death of 48-year-
old Thomas J. Bennett Sr. in March 2010. The jury also made a finding for a firearm sentencing enhancement. Prosecutors said Phasay shot Bennett multiple times after a heated dispute in the parking lot of the north Auburn Top Food and Drug at 1702 Au-burn Way N. and threatened

The homeless, wander-ing Great Dane that a friend of Patricia Cos-grove’s had offered to adopt and for which the White River Valley Mu-seum director had put up a small reward, was hit by a car and killed Jan 10.
Good Samaritans tried
to help the injured dog, but she ran off into the brush just south of a public stor-age building in the 1800 block of Howard Road. A call to Auburn Police brought an officer to the scene to find her in the dark but without success.
Kelley Durham, direc-tor of the Auburn Valley Humane Society, wrote on AVHS’ Facebook page that
Animal Control Officer George Winner found the dog Friday morning, dead of her injuries. The dog’s injuries were so serious that even a vet on scene couldn’t have saved her.
“She was brought to AVHS and handled with great dignity,” Durham wrote. “She will be cre-mated soon, and we plan to have her ashes returned to us.”
In the next few weeks, Durham added, the mu-seum will set up a memo-rial fund.
“In addition, we will have a memorial gather-ing to commemorate her crossing over the rainbow bridge,” Durham wrote.
“Details will soon be avail-able here and at AVHS.”
King County Animal Control had previously set a trap but the wiley dog didn’t fall for it.
The only other option would have been to corner her, which she wasn’t go-ing to readily allow, or to use tranquilizer equip-ment.
“It’s sad and disap-pointing,” Cosgrove said Monday.
Wandering Great Dane killedMan pleads not guilty in fatal Auburn stabbing
Bradley Courville pleaded not guilty Jan. 10 to second-degree murder charges stemming from the stabbing death of his cousin Dec. 24 in Auburn.
Courville, 24, remains in King County jail on $2 million bail for allegedly killing 26-year-old Oliver Quinn.
The King County Pros-ecutor also has charged Courville, a convicted felon, with unlawful pos-
session of a firearm in the first degree, third-degree assault and with disarming a law enforcement officer.
A case setting hearing is March 3 at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center.
Police were called to 4023 Auburn Way S. for a stabbing shortly after 1 a.m. When officers ar-rived, Quinn was uncon-scious and bleeding from a stab wound to the neck. Officers and medics tried CPR, but Quinn died.

Sun added:“Hulsey, what kind of Discharge did
you get, a DD (Dishonorable Dis-charge), MD (Medical Discharge), CD (Convenience Discharge), or were you ever in the Service? Did you serve in Nam [the Vietnam War] or the Do-minican Republic where we, the United States were in a combat skirmish? Did you receive the Purple Heart? If so, do you have documents to prove that you, indeed, received it? How about producing your DD214? That will prove everything what you said, you were and you did?”
“You told several lies in your blog, flat out lies,” Hulsey told Sun at the meet-ing. “I want the city attorney to read aloud my DD214.”
According to the document – read aloud by City Attorney Kenyon Luce – Hulsey served in the United States Marine Corps from April 27, 1965 until his honorable discharge as a sergeant on April 26, 1971. In addition the document states that Hulsey received a Purple Heart, a Good Conduct Medal, a National Defense Service Medal, a Vietnam Campaign Medal, a Presiden-tial Unit Citation and a Vietnam Service Medal with stars.
“It does appear to be a valid DD214 for the honorable service of Mr. Gary Hulsey,” Luce said.
Hulsey also addressed the mayor, council and audience about his service in the VFW, insisting that he had proof of his service as a Washington State Commander.
Berthiaume later confirmed in a phone interview that Hulsey had served as a state commander for the organiza-tion. He Sun must have “misunder-stood” him.
“I told him that Hulsey cannot speak as a commander for the VFW now,” he said.
Berthiaume added that Hulsey also served as the state treasurer but was voted out of office.
“He was working for free and they voted in someone who they had to pay a salary, if that tells you anything,” he
said. “He’s just not overly popular.”In addition to accusations regarding
Hulsey’s service, Sun’s blog dredged up the councilmember’s 1978 conviction for second-degree murder in the stab-bing death of his wife.
Hulsey was sentenced to 20 years in prison and paroled eight years later. In 1992 the state Sentence Review Board determined he had fulfilled the terms of his supervision and parole and restored his civil rights.
“It’s true. I spent time in prison. I took somebody’s life,” Hulsey said in the March 2 Auburn Reporter. “I don’t hide from it, but I’m not going to tattoo it on my forehead, either.”
As far as the latest round of accusa-tions goes, Hulsey said he doesn’t take it personally.
“I’ve been in politics long enough,” Hulsey said. “I get up in the morn-ing and shower with Armor All and go about my day. I feel like I’ve done a good job on the council, and I’m still an advocate for veterans and seniors. (Sun) comes off the wall with stuff a lot. I just figured it was more of it. He’s in a situation where he’s getting frustrated, and it’s all closing in on him and he’s striking out.”
ALSO: Sun found himself in the hot seat at Monday’s council meeting about an ad in the Auburn Reporter for a new City attorney.
John Jones asked Sun why the ad was placed when the City has a contract with Kenyon Luce to provide legal services for the City.
“Who directed the request for a City attorney’s ser-vices?” Jones said, adding that he didn’t “remember any council meeting that we have had a council conversa-tion related to requiring new City attorney services.”
According to Sun, he directed the City clerk to place the ad because his personal attorney told him “there is a possibility that we would have to hire a new attorney.”
Back in June Sun tried to fire Luce, giving him 30-days notice. The council responded by passing Ordinance 12-1826, wresting control of the hiring and firing of the City’s legal representative from the mayor by switching the position to a contract employee position, which requires a vote of council for hiring and firing.
Sun responded to Jones’ inquiry by telling the council that he doesn’t “consider Mr. Luce as my attorney for the City because we have an impasse.”
“We have a problem,” Sun said. “And I don’t want to bring that into this council meeting. That’s something that is foreign and away from this council meeting.”

Bennett’s son, who had wit-nessed the killing.
Phasay has a child with Bennett Jr.’s older half-sister.
According to prosecutors, Phasay shot Bennett Sr., to death in front of Bennett’s son during a meeting that had been set up to resolve some long-standing differences.
Auburn Police Detective Michael Jordan offered the following account of events in court documents.
Bennett Jr. called 911 at 3:01 a.m. to report that his father had been shot. A second caller reported hearing three gunshots from the east side of the lot. The responding police officer found the mortally-wounded man lying on the ground just outside the open driver’s side door of a silver Land
Rover, one foot still inside the vehicle.
The officer performed CPR until medics arrived, but 15 minutes later Bennett Sr. was pronounced dead at the scene.
Nearby, officers found three spent shell casings and three unspent cartridges. Bennett Jr. identified the shooter as Phasay.
Bennett Jr. told police that he had accompanied his fa-ther that morning to support him. According to charg-ing papers, Bennett Sr. had asked Phasay to sit in the back seat, but the younger man refused, and the two argued. Bennett Jr. told police that his father got out of the driver’s seat, but that he, Bennett Jr., stayed in the car. Bennett Jr. told police that the two men got into a fight behind the car, and that
he tried to stop the fight. He said that his father got back into the driver’s seat of the car, but that as his father was doing so, Phasay approached and punched him in the head. At that point, court papers say, Phasay produced a black semiautomatic Glock handgun.
Bennett Jr. immediately left the car, crawled to the rear and lay down on the ground. Bennett Jr. told police that he then heard several gun shots and that afterward Phasay walked around the car to where he was and pointed the hand-gun at him. Bennett Jr. told police that he begged Phasay not to shoot him, and that Phasay told him “don’t say a word” and took off running.
Valley SWAT arrested Phasay that morning at his apartment in Kent.

Norm Golden, the newly appointed Valley Regional Fire Authority fire marshal, began his new duties Jan. 1.
He succeeds Jeff Stottle-myre who retired on Dec. 31 after 30 years of service.
Golden was promoted to the position of fire marshal after an extensive testing and interview process.
His two decades of experience as a firefighter and captain, combined with his extensive educational background and profes-sional certifications, make him uniquely qualified for the position.
“Norm possesses a strong work ethic and has proven to be a very innovative thinker,” said VRFA Administrator Eric Robertson. “I look forward to his leadership and continued develop-ment of a critical unit in our organization.”
Golden is looking for-
ward to the challenge.“My immediate goal is to
work with the other divi-sions within the organiza-tion to continue the VRFA’s strong commitment to customer service,” he said. “I want to focus on building relationships with the local businesses and gaining vol-untary code compliance in lieu of resorting to enforce-ment action.”
Golden was hired as a firefighter by the legacy Auburn Fire Department on Oct. 1, 1992, and was promoted to captain in 1999.
He served as a shift fire investigator for several years, has been a certified fire inspector, and spent a considerable portion of his fire service career involved with emergency medical services.
Golden earned a profes-sional master of business administration degree and Juris doctorate degree from Seattle University.

Shedding tears for a great season
Last Sunday was an emotional day in the Skager household.
For the last six months our Sunday routine has revolved around our beloved Seahawks. Now the ride that was the team’s 12-6 run – including a magnificent 24-14 come-from-behind playoff win on the road against the Redskins and an almost as glorious come-back at Atlanta that fell just short with a 30-28 loss – was over.
After the loss my 14-year-old son and fervent 12th man Conner, was devastated. As I consoled him by pointing out how blessed we were to cheer on our home team as they BeastModed (hey, I’m a professional writer … I can verb a word if I want) their way through a slew of unsuspecting victims, slay-
ing powerhouses like the 49ers, the Packers and the Patriots, the tears begin to flow from his eyes.
I must confess that at first I was a little taken aback by the outpour-ing of emotion. I’m not typically opposed
to an outpouring of emotion, it’s just that I’ve never invested that much in a team or sporting event. And trust me, growing up as a Broncos fan in the late ’70s and ’80s, I had plenty of opportunities to ball (five Super Bowl trips, five losses. C’mon! In fact, if there was ever a time I came close to crying it was in 1998 when Denver finally won the Super Bowl).
I realized at that moment, watching Con-ner tear up over the fate of his team, that I just never had that passion when it came to sports. I just never let it all go, poured all my emotion into a team like Conner had this season with the Seahawks. Perhaps it’s what makes me a good sportswriter, the ability to step away from the emotion of the game, to observe in a detached way and report on the emotion I witness.
Trojans’ mighty runThis season the Seahawks were not the
only surprising football team I had the pleasure of watching. As I watched Conner cry I thought back to a day not so long ago in the Tacoma Dome, when the Auburn Trojan football team gathered on the turf after losing their 4A semifinal match 21-19 to Bellarmine Prep. There were tears then as well.
“It hurts because of how much time you put into it,” Trojans coach Gordon Elliott told his team.
Just a year removed from a 4-6 season, the warriors of Troy, much like the Seahawks, surprised everybody by making it further than anyone would have expected before the first game of the season. And although there is no denying that athletic talent and good coaching played a vital role in both teams’ seasons, it was the passion, the buy-in of the
?Question of the week:“Are you concerned about coal trains passing through Auburn?”

Consider a village in our downtown
Members of my family have lived in Auburn for six genera-tions. I love our little city with its rivers, parks, schools, neigh-borhoods, college, museum, diversity, inclusiveness and all sorts of other attributes.
Yet, I get discouraged when I drive down Main Street and see so many parcels of land empty of buildings. It seems to me that we do not need more retail space or restaurants; we have plenty.
We don’t need another Kent Station; we have the Supermall. What we need is housing, a downtown condominium and apartment village. I’m not thinking two-story units, I’m thinking of well-designed buildings which are three or four stories high.
Think of the amenities. People living in a downtown
condominium/apartment village could walk to Safeway, Rottles, the Transit Center, the hospital, doctor’s offices, the Post Office, City Hall, Jason’s Bake Shop, many restaurants, fine small parks and the farm-ers market.
Think of the benefits that the
downtown businesses would accrue from having many more residents living in the area. Certainly the businesses of downtown Seattle have benefited from the hundreds of new condominiums and apartments built along First Avenue, Western Avenue and in Belltown.
Let us allow the downtown to flourish by encouraging housing developers to have a go at creating a beautiful vil-lage for the heart of the city.– Rex W. Bell

ARE YOU GAME?The next time your
grandchild sits down to playa computer game, ask if you can play too. In addition to enjoying some qual-ity playtime with your grandchild, you might also be doing your-self a favor by playing computer games. The fact is that computer games challenge the brain in ways that help develop new neural pathways. As a result, senior gamers may find that they preserve their brain power and stave off memory loss at the same time. There are brain fitness programs that can be played on computers that actually have been proven to improve seniors’ memory and language skills. Just like a muscle, the more you use your brain, the stronger it gets.
Games played on the computer and with others stimulate the mind, and help keep it active. At
PARKSIDE RE-TIREMENT COM-MUNITY, we encour-age our seniors to participate in games, and we offer a wide variety to appeal to all levels and inter-ests. Learn more by contacting us today at (253) 9391332. We will arrange an initial meeting and tour of our unique senior community, conve-niently located at 2902 J Street N.E. We have been locally owned and operated since 1972. Learn how we earned our superior reputation!

citizens have repeatedly, strongly requested that these officers be hired, but Mayor Sun refuses to do so. He always uses the excuse that he is studying the issue but he never acts. This is deliberate stalling. He has no intention to adequately staff the police department. Ever.
Has anyone else noticed that the police officers, who used to park in front of Alpac Elementary before and after school to deter speeding on Milwaukee Boulevard, have not been doing so for some time now? It is because there are no patrolmen available.
Ask the crossing guard about the speeding cars kids have to dodge daily. She sees the difference from when there was daily traffic enforcement. The speed-ers know that they can get away with it as they race past the school and then Sun’s nearby house.
Call Cy Sun. Ask him to please attend the next City Council meeting and
explain to the citizens why protecting us and our children is not a priority for him. It is for everyone else in this community.
If there is an intruder alert at Alpac Elementary, how can our police depart-ment respond effectively with no patrolmen or seri-ously overworked patrol-men on duty? Think about this.
The City Council and our police department staff want to protect the kids. The money for these officers was budgeted last year and is also in the 2013 budget. There is absolutely no excuse for Cy Sun’s deliberate inaction and complete lack of regard for public safety for the citizens of Pacific.
Cy Sun usually leaves City Council meetings in an indignant huff when he is confronted by the citizens about his lack of action or when he is requested to explain his actions. He is truly afraid to have a back-and-forth discussion with citizens in a public forum. When the going gets tough “there goes Cy Sun out the door and running for home.”

State Sen. Pam Roach (R-rural Auburn) violated a Senate policy forbid-ding her to have direct contact with staff not long after she was allowed back into the GOP caucus last spring.
So says a report compiled by a subcom-mittee last summer to investigate incidents that involved Roach, who had been kicked out of her caucus three years ago on the heels of accusa-tions that she had been mistreat-ing staff.
As reported by the Associated Press, the recent report says Roach verbally attacked a Senate Re-publican staffer whose job was to
uphold sanctions that were to prevent her from having direct contact with staff.
Roach said she could only speculate on what the com-mittee was referencing as she had not seen the report.
“I still have not seen it, nobody has transmitted anything to me, nothing,” Roach said Tuesday. “I have
no written material at all. … It’s hard to believe that this is what’s happening in the Washington State Senate. It allows people to be kicked around without any recourse.”

one just to administer its swimming pool.
According to state law, Coleman said, it takes a simple majority vote to set up an MPD. The route to that public vote is a citizen petition or a city council resolution.
A MPD may be inside or outside a city’s bound-aries. If it’s inside, a city does not have to pres-ent its case to a county boundary review board.
An MPD is its own taxing authority. It levies taxes, does its own finan-cial reporting and has its
own budget. And because an MPD provides its own financial reports, it’s sub-ject to regular audits.
The levy allowed under state law is 75 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. An MPD can go out and, by garnering a superma-jority of the turnout in the most recent election, issue voted debt of up to 2.5 percent of assessed value.
Between the state of Washington’s maximum $3.60 per $1,000 rate limit and the consolidated levy of King County and all the cities and junior tax-ing districts ($5.90), the total is $9.50.
The important thing there, Coleman said, is that the 50-cent gap between the total statu-tory limit of $10 and $9.50 means that there is capac-ity for another junior taxing district.
“I think that’s a very important thing to know, that there is capacity there,” Coleman said.
Coleman said the City would lose about $2 mil-lion in revenue and about $7 million in costs, with a net benefit to the City of about $5 million.
Coleman said her study of the subject had encompassed the entire
administrative budget for parks, arts and recreation, including the golf course and maintenance and recreation fees.
She left out special events, arts programs and the White River Valley Museum, in the belief that the city council might like to maintain say over those.
And what would people get in return for their tax dollars?
Coleman said an MPD maintains the existing programs city residents want and maintains the parks as they are now. It also would create a vehicle to go out and issue debt for new facilities, if that’s what the people wanted.
And it would free up funds for transportation improvements.
“My biggest concern,” Backus said, “is that people are going to say,
‘I have that now, now you are threatening to take it away from me, or charge me to keep it.’ I am all for getting our roads done and main-taining our great parks, but I am having difficul-ties looking at this as a full positive.”
“The bottom line,” said Councilman John Holman, “is that taxes would go up 75 cents per thousand.”

Americans are living longer due to several medical advances, but unhealthy behavior and prevent-able illness threaten quality of life, according to United Health Foun-dation’s 2012 America’s Health Rankings.
While premature cardiovas-cular and cancer deaths have declined since 1990 by 18.0 percent, 34.6 percent and 7.6 percent, respectively, Americans are experiencing troubling levels of obesity (27.8 percent of the adult population), diabetes (9.5 percent of the adult population),
high blood pressure (30.8 percent of the adult population) and sedentary behavior (26.2 percent of the adult population).
UnitedHealthcare watches America’s Health Rankings closely to better understand the health of individuals and communities nationwide and in Washington.
“America’s Health Rankings from United Health Foundation is an incredibly valuable tool for us to clearly understand health trends facing us as a nation and here in Washington,” said Dr. Robert Muller, medical director
for UnitedHealthcare Northwest. “By identifying the key opportu-nities we face as a state, we can pursue innovative solutions to
those opportunities.”According to the 23rd Edition of
America’s Health Rankings, Wash-ington was 13th in 2012 compared
to ninth in 2011 when compared with the health of other states.

report card on our health A recent UnitedHealthcare report finds that,
similar to every other state, Washington has its share of strengths and challenges.
Washington’s strengths• Low prevalence of low birthrate: Washington
had the lowest rate of low birth weight in the U.S., with 6.3 percent of live births considered low weight.
• Low rate of preventable hospitalizations: The rate of preventable hospitalizations declined from 51.9 to 46.4 discharges per 1,000 Medicare enrollee in the past five years.
• Low prevalence of smoking: Washington has
one of the lowest smoking rates in the U.S. at 17.5 percent of the adult population; however, more than 900,000 adults still smoke.
Washington’s challenges• High prevalence of obesity: Almost 1.4 mil-
lion adults, or 26.5 percent of the adult popula-tion, are obese in Washington.
• Low immunization coverage: Washington ranks 39th in the U.S. for immunization cover-age, with 87.7 percent of children ages 19 to 35 months covered.
• Children in poverty are on the rise: In the past 10 years, the percentage of children in pov-erty increased from 10.5 percent to 18.9 percent. It was 16.1 percent last year.

Portrayals and Participa-tion, Onscreen and Behind the Scene” 7 p.m. Feb. 21 at the Auburn Library. The program is a conversa-tion on how movies have shaped the public’s views on Native Americans.
“This talk emerged from work I did in the American Indian studies department at the University of Wash-ington,” Rhoades explained. “I teach film from the silent era all the way to the pres-ent, and what I’ve noticed is the presence of Indians throughout the history of film. And we see the pendulum swing from one stereotype to another. Very rarely do we see something closer to the truth.”
In the first 50 years of filmmaking in America, beginning with the first silent movies, more than 25 percent of all films made were Westerns.
During that time two main stereotypes pervaded the portrayal of Native Americans in movies.
“One was the noble sav-age, the gentle wise man close to nature who admires
or respects one or two of the white people he encounters and shares his wisdom with them and often becomes somewhat subservient to them,” Rhoades said.
The other common stereotype is the vicious bloodthirsty savage, an obstacle to the progress of white pioneers as they move west, Rhoades said.
Once sound was added to movies in the 1920s, the stereotypes become even more embedded in Hollywood, Rhoades said.
“Once people on the screen begin to talk, the Indian becomes a comical, guttural, pidgin English-speaking person, or some-one who is screaming and yelling horrible war cries all the time,” he said.
Rhoades added that until the 1960s Native Americans didn’t even portray themselves in most Westerns.
“By the 1940s the practice of white actors wearing blackface (to por-tray African Americans) became distasteful,” he said. “But the practice of white actors portraying Indians
remained. We don’t find Indians playing themselves until the 1960s and ’70s.”
In the ’60s and ’70s a new wrinkle in Native Ameri-can stereotypes in films begins to emerge as well.
“Then you have the ‘going native fantasy,’” Rhoades said. “With mov-ies like ‘Little Big Man’ and later “Dances With Wolves’.”
It isn’t until the inde-pendent film boom of the 1990s that contempo-rary portrayals of Native Americans in movies such as “Smoke Signals” – writ-ten by Northwest Native American Sherman Alexie and directed by another American Indian, Chris Eyre – begin to peel back the mask of the stereotypes.
“These movies begin to feature Indians not only onscreen, but also behind the camera, presenting stories with authenticity lacking up until this point,” Rhoades said. “And it’s changing still as more and more Indians get behind the camera.”

Things were looking good for the Auburn Mountainview boys swim-ming and diving team coming into the 2012-13 season.
Except for one little problem – no divers.
Sure, the team boasted a strong core of return-ing swimmers – including Cameron Lindsay, the reigning Washington State 3A 100-yard backstroke champion – but with their top diver from last season injured, the Lions were looking at losing points in the diving competition at every meet.
“Vitaly Borodulin suf-fered a concussion early in the year,” coach Justin Pritchard said. “He was practicing at the start of the year and then got hurt. We weren’t sure if he was going to come back this season at all.”
Enter sophomore Max Barton.
“We put the word out, and a bunch of swimmers that were just going to
be swimmers decided to come out,” Pritchard said. “And Max stepped up and learned six dives in two days. He actually took first
place in our first meet, be-cause he was the only diver. That was really exciting.”
According to Barton, who turned out for swim-
ming for the first time this year just to get faster for water polo, it was simply a matter of helping out the team.
“Our coach told us we were going to lose a lot of points without a diver, so a couple of my friends and me started diving to help the team out,” Barton said. “It stuck with me and I really liked it, so I kept doing it.”
Barton said he immedi-ately began working with Auburn Mountainview’s diving coach, Brandon Schreib, to get down the six dives needed to compete.
Much to everyone’s sur-prise, Barton learned the six dives in just two days.
“It was rushed but I was surprised by how hard it actually wasn’t,” Barton said. “I thought it would take me a couple of weeks.”
Although Barton said he had messed around on the spring board before, taking the plunge just for fun, he’d never actually tried to flip or dive backwards.
“At first it was easy with just front dive and front

head football coach.
Morgan coached for 12 years at Auburn Riverside, six of
them as the head coach.During that time
Morgan compiled a 21-34 record, with two playoff appearances. This past season, the Ravens fin-ished tied for last place in the South Puget Sound League North 4A with a 1-9 record.

players who made the crucial difference.
Next year Conner begins his second season as lineman in the Stadium High School football program. And although I know there may be rough
times ahead for him, play-ing for a team that does not have a strong tradition of success on the gridiron, I’m excited about what lies ahead for him.
Who knows, maybe the passion that he displays for the game, a passion shared with the players he
admires like Russell Wil-son and Marshawn Lynch, or even high school ath-letes like Auburn’s Harold Lee and Kevin Shelton, might be enough to help him put together the season he’ll remember for a lifetime.

front flip. I could do those,” Barton said. “Then [Schreib] had me do a back dive and back flip, and I couldn’t do anything backwards, not even on a trampoline.”
After mastering the back-wards dives, Barton said, he began working on the more complicated dives.
“Then I started working on more than one flip, like the forward one and a half,” Barton said. “I flopped a few times, but after a while it got easier with practice.”
Barton said he threw himself wholeheartedly into the practice regime, putting in two hours a day polish-ing his technique when
there were no meets.“What he did was pretty
big,” Pritchard said. “We were going to get rid of diving all together. Here we had a diving coach but no divers. But they all stepped up, and Max is the one that has gotten the furthest so far. I think (he can move on to postseason). We’ve still got a whole month.”
Although Borodulin has now returned for the Lions, Barton said he plans to continue to dive.
“Our school record for diving, according to the board, is 170,” he said. “And I’m looking to beat that record. My best is 124.”
Ravens’ 30-23 win over district rival Auburn in 2011, the first ever for Auburn Riverside foot-ball against the Trojans
He also coached two future National Football League players, Max Ko-mar and David Paulson, during his time with the Ravens.
“I am sure that I will miss coaching football, but after much thought, the challenges in this situation outweigh the positives for me,” Morgan said. “The biggest posi-tive was our players, they are great kids. I loved coaching these kids and I hope them the best of
success in the future. With that said, I will en-joy having more time to spend with my family.”
Morgan will still teach algebra at the school.
“In his years as head coach Bob has worked very hard to bring suc-cess to Auburn Riverside football,” Aubert said. “He finishes his tenure having had a great influ-ence on our athletes and having been a valuable piece of our athletic program. Our thanks to Bob for his passion and service with ARHS football.”

Georgia Merle (Coen) BollingerGeorgia Merle (Coen) Bollinger
born November 16, 1917 passed away peacefully on January 8, 2013 to begin her new adventure hiking the mountains, fields and rivers above. Georgia touched many lives through her volunteer work with the senior center, meals on wheels, community dinner services and her years at Evans drug store. Georgia proudly reigned Pioneer queen of Auburn in
1999. Her greatest joys in life were her family and friends but a day would not go by that you wouldn’t find her with her camera in hand in the great outdoors.
Georgia is survived by her two sons Michael and Patrick Bollinger, brothers Jack, Robert and Jerry Coen, 11 grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren and one great great grandchild along with the many relatives that she so cherished. Georgia’s enthusiasm for life resulted in wonderful childhoods and fond memories that will be forever treasured, passed on and incorporated into a great legacy. Georgia will be infinitely missed.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 2pm at the Auburn Free Methodist Church, 1312 2nd Street SE. Online sentiments may be journaled at www.price-
