Congratulations Cash!

Cash Wainscott was the big winner at the McAlester Rodeo win-ning the Sheep rid-ing and had a strong outing in the Pee Wee bareback riding event.

A Stillwater family is thank-ful after a successful transplant surgery for their son. Ten year old Jose Gomez is the son of Jose and Janet (Handley) Gomez. Both parents were raised in the Allen area and are graduates of AHS.

The odds of fi nding a perfect match are almost as tough as matching lottery ping pong balls but when a little boy needed a new kidney, luck came his way, surprising his doctors. Doctors at OU Medi-cal Center say this kidney donation is a one-in-a-million match. The little boy’s mom was actually planning to do-nate her own kidney, but a surprise phone call from the doctor changed their plans in an unexpected way.

Young Jose is like most boys his age. He has a lot of energy and likes to run around with his brothers. But up until now, he’s only had about 20 percent kidney function. It’s made things tough growing up, and his mom, Janet, was ready to

donate one of hers. “I came in Friday to do some

more testing for him just to be sure I was healthy enough to donate to him, and when I got the phone call from Dr. Turman, I was in awe,” Janet Gomez said. Janet’s kidney would be spared after the hos-pital found a rare kidney match from another donor that would go to Jose.

“To have somebody in the common population and to have what is called ‘the perfect match,’ so to speak, is a very, very rare occurrence,” Dr. Puneet Sindhwani said.

“It took me by surprise. I was not expecting it by any means and to get that gift that matched so perfectly for my son, it was amazing,” Janet said.

Jose underwent a 3-hour transplant surgery over the weekend. Doctors say it went well, and when he woke up, everyone remembers Jose’s fi rst request.

“Once he got out of surgery, [he said] ‘I want chocolate ice cream and Dr. Pepper’ and all those things he couldn’t have. He’s definitely been taking advantage of it,” Gomez said.

Jose, who is recouping at home, is taking strong anti-

rejection medications. He’ll be home schooled for the next few months to avoid getting sick.

Doctors say because this is such a perfect match Jose’s new kidney should last up to 60 years.

James Iker Passes Away

by Cleo Emerson LeVally

There is a saying, “You are never too old to learn”. This past week I heard two state-ments that started me on a path to doing research and to try to understand them. The first statement I heard was, “Chickens are so smart” and “The rooster is the genius of the barnyard”. Wow! I grew up on a farm and never heard those statements before nor had an inkling as to the truth of either of them.

First and foremost, the rooster rules the flock. He gets everyone up in the morning & they go to work. They either begin to eat or to lay eggs. The rooster will at-tack anything that he thinks will harm the chickens. If

a rooster is not present in a flock of hens, a hen will often take the role, stop lay-ing and may even begin to crow.

In my research, I learned a lot of information about the eggs that a hen will lay. The egg is nature’s miracle food. It nourishes both the body and the mind. It is a great way to get extra pro-tein. A large egg contains approximately 6 grams of protein. The white of an egg contains 3 amino acids called cysteine, cystine and methionine. The yolk con-tains vitamins A, B2, B6, folic acid, phosphorus, io-dine, zinc, biotin, inestothol, panthothenic acid, choline

and lecithin. A chicken will lay big-

ger and stronger eggs if you change the lighting in the henhouse to make them think a day is 28 hours long. The largest egg on re-cord was nearly 12 oz, and measured 12 and ¼ inches around. The greatest number of yolks found in one chick-en egg was nine. The record for laying the most eggs in

one day is seven. There are more chickens in the world than any other domesticated bird. There is more than one chicken for every human on the face of the earth.

Laid head to claw, KFC chickens consumed world-wide would stretch some 275,094 miles. They would circle the earth at the equator 11 times or stretch from the

earth approximately 50,094 miles past the moon.

According to the National Geographic, scientists have settled the old dispute over which came first – the chick-en or the egg. They say that reptiles were laying eggs thousands of years before the chickens appeared and the first chicken came from an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken. That seems to answer the ques-tion. The egg came first.

Getting a Re-do

I was just reading in the Oklahoman about a guy who did a redo on a house he bought. Located in a distressed part of north-east Oklahoma City, the old empty house had been van-dalized and all its windows were covered in plywood. The rest of the homes on both sides of the street in the block were starting to look bad too with no one doing much of anything about it. Yards needed mowing and some had cars, trash and old furniture and appliances strung around. The people in that neighborhood had thrown in the towel. They had given in to what they saw as their reality.

The new property owner wanted to live in the house but was hesitant. Was the old house worth it? Would he just be another victim of living in a neighborhood that was “going down?” He took a gamble and went ahead — replacing the windows, repairing the roof, slapping on a new paint job. I forgot

what colors he used but he went with two exterior colors and it really looked sharp. He fi xed up the in-terior too and when it was fi nished he had a real good house for the money he had in it. But he still wondered about the shabby neighbor-hood? Yeah, well that’s the main story.

Much to everyone’s sur-prise his next door neighbors went to work on their places. Junk was hauled away and yards were cleaned up and mowed. Some places were painted — just a coat of paint. But what really spiffed it up was the yard cleanup. It got the other people’s attention and with a little encouragement and help other yards got cleaned off. More junk was hauled away, sidewalks got them-selves cleaned off and edged and untended bushes were transformed from brush to shrubs. In very short order the whole street had been transformed and people in

that block now take a lot of pride in their property. Their property values increased too.

Some people here in Al-len who moved away re-ally took a beating on their houses because buyers look at the neighborhood real close and messy yards often mean bad neighbors, drug-gies and lowering property values. It can make for a bad investment. Here in our little community we have a problem with houses that are worn out and abandoned, people who just toss out old furniture, even mattresses and other stuff they have tired of out into their yards violating city codes with impunity. Junk cars, grown up yards, and keeping horses and goats in the yard create health hazards and need to be dealt with. One violator supposedly has over 20 dogs in his yard. I’m not sure as they were hard to count and the stench was pretty bad.

While you wish people

would respond to common sense requests to have a little respect for their neighbors as well as obey codes and other health laws, sometimes they just don’t. It’s easy to let these things slide but I hope our city can tighten up on these quality of life issues and we can help make Al-len a better place to live and raise our kids.

Our police chief often pub-lishes his own pleas about this problem and has said if you have a problem with your property that is beyond your abilities (whatever the reasons) let him know — and he will try to get you some help cleaning it up. I’m sure

our city government would amen that. There are a lot of good things about Allen. Our public areas, parks, walking trails and streets are cleaner than they were several years ago. We still have some littering, much of it by kids but a lot of our kids are trying to make it better. Now let’s get busy and clean up our own private property. Be the fi rst in your neighborhood to start us on a new trend.

Have a good weekend and don’t forget to attend your church this weekend. Let me remind you that I love hearing from my readers.

Wayne Bullard, [email protected]

Did God really create the world in six days? It is sug-gested that the six days of creation mentioned in Gen-esis were actually long peri-ods of time and not literal 24 hour days. If they were long periods of time, then perhaps God used the evolutionary process and there is not a confl ict with the Bible and (so-called) science. The Genesis account states that on the third day God created plants of grass, herbs and trees and on the fourth

day, He created the sun and moon. How long can plants live without sunlight? If plants evolved over a long period of time – perhaps, millions of years as has been suggested – wouldn’t all plants have died during the millions of years before the sun existed? One of the Ten Command-ment was to “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.” God instructed that all work was to be done in six days and they were to rest on the seventh because “in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day.” (Exodus 20:8-11) This is a comparison made of literal 24 hour days, not ages of time. Moses and Is-rael could not have possibly taken it to mean anything but a literal week of time and 24-hour days.

If the days of creation were long ages of time, why would the Scripture speak of the “evening and morning” of each day? And, what does “evening and morn-ing” mean? Surely, if the days of creation were long periods of time, God could have stated “long periods of time.” There were words in the Hebrew language he could have used to com-municate that idea. If you believe that God has the power to create our world, then you can believe that He could create it in six days and that He could create it to look as if it had existed for millions of years. Consider this: How old did Adam and Eve appear to be when they were created?

Not bashing the beginning of school or anything but this Saturday, the 24th, the big Back

to School Bash is scheduled at our church. The water slide should already be broken in by then, and the hamburgers will be ready for the grill. It begins at 3:00 in the afternoon and doesn’t end until the movie is over that evening. All school children in the area are invited, welcome, urged, and hoped to see.

On a more serious note, do be in prayer for the students and their teachers in all the schools in this area. You might be in a prayer, too, for the after school programs of all kinds, too. My opinion as a former teacher is that even more learning takes place outside the classroom than inside. And it’s important that extra-curricular learning be the right kind.

from Matthew 19:16-27; Mat-thew 20:1-16; Mark 10:13-15; and John 3:16,17 and was titled, “Who Then Can Be Saved?”

The rich young ruler’s prob-lem wasn’t riches so much as it was that he let the riches come between him and God. Jesus did not say that it was impossible for a rich man to enter heaven, but he said it was almost impossible. “Yet,” He explained to the disciples, “all things are possible with God.”

Some older people feel that it is too late for them to seek salvation. “Why would God want me to be saved when I have such a short time left on this earth to serve Him?” they ask. The Parable of the work-ers that Jesus told is reassuring to them.

Christians who have served since childhood will receive a mansion in heaven. So will even those who were saved late in life.

At what age can children be saved? Jesus said not to refuse any of the children. There is no age limit to when you can be saved.

What did Jesus mean when he said that the last shall be fi rst, and the fi rst shall be last? Those who spend their time serving God will fi nd they have earned riches in heaven. Those who spend their time on earth gaining riches will fi nd them-selves last with few rewards in

heaven. Whosoever believes on Je-

sus will have everlasting life. Everyone is called, but it is sad that relatively few answer the call.

God didn’t send Jesus to tell us all how bad we are, Jesus came to save us. So whether you are rich or poor, old or young or in between, you are a “whosoever.”

Who can be saved? Since you too are a “whosoever,” you can.

Allen girls knock off Stuart 5-1 behind improved ‘glove’ work

By HERMAN BROWNAllen correspondent

The Allen Lady Mustangs continue the fall softball campaign this week. Coach Jeremy Strong’s AHS squad was scheduled for early-week action with Wanette and Asher.

On Monday, Allen was set to host the Wanette Lady Tigers in varsity fast-pitch softball on the Lady Mustangs’ home fi eld. Then Allen was slated for a road trip south to Asher to battle the Lady Indians.

Coach Strong has guided the Allen High School squad to one win in three outings this season.

“We have played three good teams and we were right there in all three of them,” Coach Strong said. “We played pretty good softball, but just made too many mental mistakes. That cost us those fi rst two games. Of those 10 runs, maybe only 2 of them were earned runs.”

In the opener, the New Lima Lady Falcons managed a narrow 6-4 victory over the Pontotoc County softball squad. Allen fell again in the second game of the season. The Lady Mustangs suffered a heartbreaking 4-3 loss to the Stonewall Lady Long-horns.

“Those two were both winnable games,” Coach Strong said. “Our defense just has to play a little better to make sure we don’t give away so many runs. That will be the key for us.”

The third game proved to be the charm for Allen. AHS gener-ated some scoring while the defense did a much better job against a very talented opponent. In Game 3, the Lady Mustangs got their bats working and pounded out a solid 5-1 victory over the hosting Stuart Lady Hornets.

“I feel a lot better about how we played against Stuart,” the coach said. “I think we had only one or two mental mistakes in that one. We also got great pitching from Abby Gaines and that was crucial to the win. But Abby has pitched great in all three of those games. That was certainly not our problem.”

The 4-run Allen triumph sent Coach Strong’s AHS squad into the weekend with a one-game win streak.

“We are playing better now,” the coach said. “But we need to continue to improve on defense and I think we’ll be just fi ne.”

Following the two games early this week, Allen is scheduled to play in the softball tournament at Tupelo. However, Coach Strong is not positive that the Lady Mustangs will be placed in the event. He will check, and if they are included in the event, he’ll take them over to Tupelo for the tournament.

Here are the front-line players for the 2013 Allen High School fast-pitch softball team:

THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, AUGUST 22, 2013--PAGE 8

By HERMAN BROWNAllen correspondent

If Allen is going to enjoy offensive success in 2013, the Mustangs will have to put to-

gether a productive rushing at-tack. That’s the message Coach Kenny Deaton is preaching to his players during the early days of the season.

“We have to be able to run

the football,” the veteran coach said. “We need to be more physical and pick up yards with our running game. We’ll be throwing it too, but the passing game will open up to

us more when our opponent is forced to stop us from running the ball.”

Coach Deaton will depend on a proven running back to spark the ground attack. Colton Browning (5-7, 150) returns for his sophomore season after an impressive showing in 2012. Browning rushed for over 1,000 yards as a freshman - and added double-digit total in touchdowns.

“We believe Colton will have a big year for us,” Coach Deaton said. “We will defi-nitely put the ball in his hands and expect him to carry the offensive load. Browning of-fers a good blend of power and speed. The sophomore will use those tools to make first down and touchdowns.

“He is only a sophomore, but he is a very good player,” Coach Deaton said. “We will only get better as he goes along. We have to keep him healthy as we don’t have much depth at his spot.”

The listed backup to Brown-ing is junior Dakota Nickell (5-11, 140). However, he is a starting wide receiver and would only get snaps at run-ning back if Browning was unable to play.

Allen will also have a sopho-more playing at the slot back position. Dalton James (6-0, 171) is the first-team player for the Mustangs. Fans may recall what promise James showed during the Weleetka scrim-mage last August. However, he suffered an injury in the second scrimmage and was basically lost for the entire season.

“Dalton is a kid we real-ly missed last year,” Coach Deaton said. “We are certainly glad to have him back play-ing now. He’s someone we can send out short or deep in our passing game. But we can also get him back there and hand him the ball. He has good hands for receiving and also runs hard when you hand him the football. He is a weapon we plan to use in a couple of ways this season.”

Freshman Colby Eaker (5-8, 160) is listed as the No. 2 slot back. He has impressed the coaches with his play early in

2013.“Colby could get some ac-

tion,” said Coach Deaton. “He catches the ball really well and we could certainly use him in the slot position.”

The third member of the offensive backfield will play a pivotal role in Allen’s suc-cess on the offensive side of the ball. Junior Justin Deaton moves into the quarterback position to replace graduated senior Conner Johnson. Deaton (6-1, 175) will be counted upon to move the Mustangs down the field with a combination of handing off the pigskin, run-ning it himself or putting the ball in the air to his receivers.

“He is a smart kid who will be on a little learning curve early in the season,” Coach Deaton said of his oldest son. “He has been playing a differ-ent position for the last two years. I expect he will get back into the quarterback mode pretty quickly.”

The junior quarterback will be counted upon to make good decisions in running the of-fense. That will be his primary challenge in 2013.

“He will have to avoid the bad plays for us,” Coach Deaton said. “He’ll have a 4-second clock in his head and will know to tuck the football and run for as much yardage as possible. If he’ll do that, he can turn a broken play into a positive gain.”

The junior has the potential to be a very good quarterback.

“He has a strong arm and I expect him to do a good job in our passing game,” Coach Deaton said. “But we will be that run-first team and that’ll be what makes us successful on offense. We’ll move the ball with our running game and then step back and make some plays with the pass. If we get the run game going it will make our passing that much more effective when we go to it.”

As for depth at quarterback, Allen will use a pair of fresh-men to back up Justin Deaton. Colby Eaker (5-8, 160) and Russ Black (5-11, 141) are the

reserve QBs.“Colby has a really good

arm,” said Coach Deaton. “He has a lot of potential as quarter-back. But Russ is also a good player and a very hard runner. Our goal will be to keep the first-team playing most of the time. But, if we need to use a backup, we have two kids who are capable of coming in and helping us at this position.”

When it is time to go to the passing game, Allen is blessed with a very talented wide receiver. Junior Dakota Nickell (5-11, 140) is a return-ing starter and someone the coaches really appreciate.

“He is a proven player for us,” Coach Deaton said. “Da-kota has great hands, good speed and is a terrific route runner. We have to get the ball in his hands some way. We will throw it to him, but we might also work in a reverse play or something like that to take advantage of his skills.

Nickell caught passes for more than 400 yards last sea-son.

“We did not have a big year that way,” Coach Deaton said. “But we expect a lot more from our passing game this season. I want to see his totals increase quite a bit for us.”

Junior Jeffrey Dodd (5-10, 130) is listed as the back-up wide receiver. However, Dodd’s playing time will be very limited as the coaches will want Nickell on the field for almost every snap.

“We are glad to have Jeffrey there, but he probably won’t see a lot of action at that posi-tion,” the coach said. “Dakota will likely be there 99 percent of the time if he stays healthy. There is such a big drop be-tween our first team and our second team. That’s why we want to avoid injuries as much as possible. It is a big deal for our starters remain healthy.”

If the Mustangs are loaded at one position, it is likely the tight end spot. Junior Thirkiel Wedlow (6-1, 212) is a very talented and very capable front-line player. However, there are two other candidates for the job who could step

in and do the work at a solid level. The reserve tight ends are freshman Jeff Deaton (6-1, 167) and junior Preston Brown (6-1, 255).

Coach Deaton is thrilled with Wedlow at tight end.

“He brings a lot to this po-sition,” the head coach said. “Thirkiel is a big target, a great possession receiver and a great blocking tight end. He is like a safety blanket for Justin (quar-terback). If he gets in trouble, he knows he can throw it up to Thirkiel and have a chance to complete a pass. He can find that big tight end and we can move those (first down) chains.”

The backup tight ends are both impressive in their own way. If pressed into service, each one can do something to help the offense.

“Preston has good hands and can catch that football,” Coach Deaton said. “Jeffrey is a good blocking tight end. There will be series when we used all three of them at the same time. We will get into our jumbo package and go with three tight ends. We’ll actually lined up one of them in the backfield as the fullback and used the other two as tight ends. That will be in our power game and it is great to have them available for that and to give us depth at this position”

While the skill positions are important, coaches know that everything depends on the three big boys in the offensive line. Allen currently has two players vying for the starting role at center, and two other players holding down start-ing assignments at the guard spots.

Junior Nick Wallen (5-11, 263) and freshman Mark Huitt (5-9, 210) are in a very tight battle for the starting role at center. Either could win the job, but the decision might not be final for a while longer. The great news for the Mustangs is that you have quality depth at a very crucial spot on the field.

“It is a close battle,” said Coach Deaton. “Nick is a first-year player coming out for football. He is working hard to try and learn this position.

He has done a great job. Plus, he made great strides in the summer. He might be a slight favorite (to start) … but it is still an on-going battle. Mark is also working very hard. He is improving and getting better on a daily basis. We will have to wait and see how this battle turns out for center.”

The left guard position be-longs to junior Jason Holcomb (6-4, 265) heading into the season. Junior Aaron Manuel (6-3, 232) is the top back-up to Holcomb.

“Jason is a kid that is back from a 2-year layoff from foot-ball,” Coach Deaton said. “We are happy to have him back with the team. He is playing with a vengeance and desire to prove that he belongs on the field. He has done that and is a pleasant surprise for us. He really looked great in our practice. But he still came to me and wanted to know what he could do to improve. I told him to just keep doing exactly what he has been doing. His work ethic is great and his at-titude is super. With his play, he made us chose him as a starter!”

Even as a backup at left guard, Aaron Manuel has been very impressive in a lot of ways.

“Aaron is a super kid,” Coach Deaton said. “He is good enough to play and can cer-tainly give Jason a break. He has been very good and we’ll use both of them on the line to wear some people down. It is great to have both of them available at left guard.”

The right guard position will be held down by a junior – with a freshman working hard in the backup role.

Junior Patrick Leonard (5-9, 170) has emerged as the starter at right guard.

“Patrick is undersized for the

Coach plans rushing attack as primary option for Allen’s offensive unitfield somewhere. He has a combination of good stretch and speed. It’s a good look for us because we can get him out there and get some blocks on the linebackers. He can get out there and run with our backs and that is a big advantage for us. We are excited to see what we can do with him.”

As the backup, Brett Mann has showed the coaching staff some real potential on the of-fensive line.

“He is a good backup,” Coach Deaton said. “He has made a lot of strides and especially this summer. It is great to have him there as a quality backup player.”

Looking ahead, the Mus-tangs will test their progress against three other schools on Friday. Coach Deaton will take AHS to the Dewar Dragon scrimmage Friday on the out-skirts of Henryetta.

“We’ll start at 6:30 p.m.,” the head coach said. “It will be a four-way scrimmage with us and Dewar, plus Weleetka and a home-school squad called the Oklahoma City Patriots.”

Dewar and Weleetka play in the same district. Because of that, it is unlikely they will go head-to-head during the scrimmage. Allen will prob-ably scrimmage against Dewar while Weleetka scrimmages against the OC Patriots. The Mustangs will also go against Weleetka while Dewar scrim-mages the OKC School.

“We are not in their district so we can go against any of them,” Coach Deaton said.

Allen fans going to Dewar Friday should be aware that the admission price to the scrim-mage will be either $1 per person or a bar of soap.

“It should be a good experi-ence for us,” Coach Deaton said. “We’ll have a chance to go up against some other

teams. That should tell us a little about how we are pro-gressing.”

A hearing on this application will be scheduled and the applicant and protestant(s) shall be advised of the hear-ing date upon receipt of a proper protest. Protesting parties or their representatives must appear at the hearing and present the protest in order that it may be considered.

The children are back in school and the activities have begun. We look forward to going to all their basketball and football games . The kids love to perform and they need our support. We, as a church can help their self esteem, and watch them grow.

Our special this Sunday , “Home Where I Belong,” was sung by Bro. Larry. His message was taken from Jeremiah 23:23-29 and entitled “Listen for the Word of God.” Learn to discern the true word of God. There are many loud, compelling voices trying to get our attention. They will even come from people who

claim to speak for God. We have a responsibility to dig into it for ourselves. There may well be those who will help us understand better. Ultimately, we are respon-sible for reading it for ourselves. As we familiarize ourselves with truth, we will be better able to discern the lies. Our lives will improve by seeking to live ac-cording to God’s Word.

The values of society are often very different than those of God. Those who seek truth, will often

be viewed with suspicion by oth-ers. They will be portrayed as narrow minded, hateful, intoler-ant, and evil. That is because the ways of God are very different from the ways of humanity. The Word of God tells us that real freedom comes from knowing the truth. Those who choose to seek and live in truth will experience peace now and forever.

Live by the truth, even when it’s hard. Anyone who tells you living a righteous life is easy

is wrong. It will often require us to avoid things that we really want to do. It may sometimes require us to do things we really don’t want to do. Equally wrong are those who would tell us that liv-ing a righteous life is impossible. All of us will be tempted to go our own way. Those who will be most content are those who are determined to go God’s way.

Bring your children and the neighbor’s children to church

with you this Sunday. It will make a big difference in the future of our youth.

COLLECTINGBy Larry CoxCow Creamer

Q: I have a creamer in the shape of a cow. I bought it at a church sale and paid $35 for it. -- Mark, Hammond, La.A: I’m not sure what your question is, but I must tell you that many of the “cow creamers” have been reproduced, and most generally sell for less than $20. To determine if your creamer is authentic and older, show it to an established antiques dealer in your area for his or her opinion. For current values, I recommend “The Antique Trader Kitchen Collectibles Price” edited by Kyle Hus-floen. There are several pages featuring creamers with current values.***Q: I have a collection of cigarette silks that were given away as premiums, probably during the 1920s. Is there someone I can contact about them? The ones I have represent international flags. -- Bill, Flagstaff, Ariz.A: Robert Forbes is a serious collector of tobacco memo-rabilia and has written several books on the subject. He might be able to advise you. His address is P.O. Box 62, DuPont, WA 98373. Check out his excellent reference “American Tobacco Silks, Flannels, and Leathers,” which can ordered from him.***Q: My parents were married in 1953 and received a set of sterling flatware in the “Bridal Veil” pattern. What can you tell me about it? -- Susan, Westminster, Colo.A: Your pattern was crafted by the International Sil-ver Company and introduced in 1950. The company was formed in 1898 in Meriden, Conn., by a group of independent silversmiths. The association eventually included several additional companies including Rogers Brothers, Derby Silver, Meriden Britannia, Webstar and Wilcox, and others. Although this isn’t one of the more expensive patterns, it is certainly a handsome one.***Q: I have a set of six volumes of “Nation’s Heritage” published by B.C. Forbes & Sons in 1949, all in fine con-dition. Do these books have any value, and where can I offer them for sale? -- R.C.R., Albuquerque, N.M.A: These appear to sell in the $15 to $25 range per vol-ume in my area of the country, Phoenix. You live in a fairly large city with several excellent used bookstores. Begin there.***Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

• On Sept. 5, 1666, fire-fighters in London be-gin blowing up homes in a desperate attempt to halt the spread of a great fire through the city. By the time the fire was finally snuffed out the following day, more

than 100,000 people had been left homeless.

• On Sept. 7, 1776, dur-ing the Revolutionary War, the 8-foot-long American submersible craft Turtle attempts to attach a time bomb to the hull of British Ad-

miral Richard Howe’s flagship Eagle in New York Harbor. It was the first use of a submarine in warfare.

• On Sept. 6, 1915, a pro-totype tank nicknamed Little Willie rolls off the assembly line in Eng-land. It weighed 14 tons, got stuck in trenches and crawled over rough terrain at only 2 mph. For secrecy, produc-tion workers were told the vehicles would be used to carry water on the battlefield. The new vehicles were shipped in crates labeled “tank,” and the name stuck.

• On Sept. 3, 1935, a new land-speed record is set by Britain’s Sir Malcolm Campbell. On the Bonn-eville Salt Flats of Utah, Campbell and his 2,500-horsepower car Bluebird made two runs over a 1-mile course at speeds averaging 301 mph.

• On Sept. 8, 1945, U.S. troops land in Korea to begin their postwar oc-cupation of the southern part of that nation, al-most exactly one month after Soviet troops had entered northern Korea to begin their own occu-pation. Although the U.S. and Soviet occupations were supposed to be temporary, the division of Korea quickly became permanent.

• On Sept. 2, 1969, Amer-ica’s first automatic tell-er machine (ATM) makes its public debut, dis-pensing cash to custom-ers at Chemical Bank in Rockville Center, N.Y. It wasn’t until 1971 that an ATM could handle multi-ple functions, including providing customers’ account balances.

• On Sept. 4, 1972, U.S. swimmer Mark Spitz wins his seventh gold medal at the Summer Olympics in Munich and establishes new world records in all the events. The record would stand until Michael Phelps took home eight gold medals at the Beijing Games in
