BENEFIT: Tent Caterpillars Eat Away Dead Trees, Opening More Light and Providing Nutrients for Understory
By Kyle Spurr
The outbreak of tent caterpil-lars near Mount St. Helens over the past two summers is expect-ed to continue this year, accord-ing to scientists.
The caterpillars’ squirming presence near the volcano is an encouraging sight for scientists since it shows the landscape con-tinues to support life and recover from the eruption 33 years ago.
Peter Frenzen, the chief sci-entist for the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, said the critters are a natural oc-currence on the mountain and are an important part of the en-vironment.
“They are generally around in small numbers but the popu-lation builds up and runs into a wall about every three to five years,” Frenzen said. “It’s not clear (the population) will be as heavy as last year, but they are still around. People are kind of
shocked at how many of them there are.”
Hikers on trails like the Hummocks Trail can hear thousands of the fuzzy insects munching on the leaves of al-der trees and see them cover the surrounding foliage.
Frenzen said a major mis-conception people have is that the caterpillars kill the alder trees by eating the leaves, when actually the leaves grow back and it takes much more extreme measures to kill the trees. The caterpillars are left alone by the Forest Service and allowed to act out their natural boom and bust population cycle.
Although seeing so many caterpillars at once can be dis-concerting, Frenzen said, the insects actually pose a benefit to the mountain when their popu-
lation is booming. As the caterpillars eat away
the leaves of the alder trees, it opens up more sunlight for the understory of the forested land on the mountain. The under-story also benefits from the cat-erpillars droppings which act as a fertilizer full of nutrients.
The caterpillars then attract birds and other predators. When the caterpillars turn to moths, they are often eaten by bats.
The caterpillars appear to play an integral role in the moun-tain’s ecosystem, Frenzen said, which is becoming greener each year after the 1980 eruption.
“We tend to focus on the de-struction aspect of the eruption,” Frenzen said. “But what was left behind that seemed to be very chaotic are actually amazing complex and productive habitats.

Tent caterpillars are seen in large numbers near Mount St. Helens in 2012.
‘‘They are generally around in small numbers but the population builds up and runs into a
wall about every three to five years.’’

Centralia Woman Injured in Collision at Mellen Street
A Centralia woman was in-jured after a crash Wednesday morning on the Mellen Street southbound off-ramp at Inter-state 5, according to the Wash-ington State Patrol.
The woman, 39-year-old Alma D. Navarette Sanchez, was driving a 2000 Toyota pickup truck and was stopped at a stop-light at the bottom of Exit 81 when a 2000 Chevrolet pickup rear-ended her truck, according to police.
The accident occurred short-ly before 9 a.m. Wednesday, and Sanchez sustained unspeci-fied injuries, according to po-lice. The other driver, Michael J. Dykes, 62, of Rochester, will be cited for violation of basic speed rule. He was not injured.
Both trucks were towed from the scene.
Highway Patrol Urges Drivers to Be Proactive Before Leaving for Holiday Weekend
Washington State Patrol is asking people planning on traveling during Memorial Day weekend to drive safely and be prepared for increased traffic.
WSP anticipates more traf-fic on state highways, and are requesting drivers be alert and drive with caution and at a reasonable speed, taking into consideration traffic and road conditions. Police also ask that people take into consideration that increased traffic will mean longer travel times.
People should check to make sure their vehicles are in work-
ing condition before driving, including lights, tires and wind-shield wipers. Information about road conditions can be found at Washington State Department of Transportation’s website at www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic, or by calling 1-800-695-ROAD, 1-206-DOT-HIWY, or 511.
Thurston County Properties Going Tobacco Free
On Tuesday, the Thurston County Board of Commissioners approved a new policy that will ban smoking, e-cigarettes and the use of other tobacco prod-ucts from county buildings and grounds with few exceptions.
The new rules go into effect on Jan. 1, 2014.
All county employees and visitors to county facilities, buildings and campuses will be asked to help keep county prop-erties tobacco-free.
The goal of the new tobacco-free policy is to reduce exposure to secondhand smoke for em-ployees and for guests visiting county properties, according to the County Commission. Com-missioners also hope the new policy will encourage employees who do use tobacco to quit the habit, they said in a press release.
“We know there’s no such thing as a safe amount of secondhand smoke, and this new policy is a tried and tested way of reducing secondhand smoke exposure and making our facilities and campus-es safer and healthier for our em-ployees and for the public,” Thur-ston County Commissioner and County Board of Health Chair-woman Karen Valenzuela said.
Thurston County is one of sev-eral South Sound organizations to go tobacco free. Other govern-ment agencies and large employ-ers which have adopted similar
policies in recent years include: Mason County, Providence St. Peter Hospital and South Puget Sound Community College.
While the new tobacco-free policy was adopted on Tuesday, choosing Jan. 1, 2014, as the ef-fective date gives locals seven
months to make the transition, Valenzuela said.
The county plans to install temporary signs at its facilities and campuses later this summer that will include information on tobacco cessation. Permanent signs will be installed later this fall.
County parks will not be sub-ject to the new tobacco-free rules.

TWO SOURCES: $350,000 Comes from Grant, $350,000 From County Matching Funds
By Lisa Broadt
Valley View Health Cen-ter, a health care provider con-tracted by the county, on Mon-day announced it will receive a $350,000 grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation, a pri-vate, philanthropic organization based in New York.
Lewis County previously pledged to match the grant should it be awarded, and, as such, will provide an additional $350,000. That money comes from the county’s one-tenth of 1
percent sales tax.According to Executive Di-
rector Steve Clark, Valley View will use its $700,000 to improve depression care in Lewis County over the next two years.
Specifically, the grant will al-low low income residents to re-ceive care for depression using a
“different, innovative approach,” Clark said.
“This funding will make an enormous difference in our abil-ity to diagnose and help people who are suffering from depres-sion regardless of their ability to pay,” Clark said. “We want to thank the John A. Hartford Foundation for investing in our community. Additionally, we want to thank the Lewis County commissioners … This truly was a community effort.”
Valley View Health Center
currently provides medical, den-tal and behavioral health ser-vices to Lewis County residents, primarily to the uninsured and underinsured.
All patients are provided ser-vices, regardless of their ability to pay, according to Valley View.
The Health Center is head-quartered in Chehalis and has clinics in Centralia, Cheha-lis, Toledo, Winlock, Onalaska, Morton, Pe Ell and Raymond.
Clark previously told the County Commission that Lewis County stands to benefit greatly from an expanded slate of men-tal health services.
“Valley View does not need this program, the county needs this program," Clark said about the program, which focuses on preventative treatment.
Lewis County’s one-tenth
of 1 percent sales tax revenue — about $900,000 a year — is divided three ways: 45 percent goes to the Lewis County Drug Court; 45 percent goes to the Sale Tax Advisory Board to be used for programs that help with mental health and chemi-cal dependency issues; and 10 percent is set aside for the fund balance.
Funding for Valley View will most likely come from the Sales Tax Advisory Board.
Valley View possibly could receive John Hartford money — and accordingly county money
— for a third year, but that will be determined at a later date, based on the outcome of first two years, according to County Commissioner Lee Grose.

INVESTIGATION: Still No Suspects in String of Arsons Two Weeks Ago
By Kyle Spurr
The string of arsons in Cen-tralia two weeks ago that dam-aged two churches and a retail store may have extended to two other locations originally be-lieved to be accidental fires, ac-cording to investigators.
The fires at the Firehouse Espresso stand at 2391 NE Kresky Avenue and the Calvary Chapel at 2502 Seward Avenue on May 3 are both still classified as undetermined, which leaves the possibility open for arson if more evidence is found.
“We leave it undetermined for the purpose that one day in the fu-ture we might get information that would help determine the cause,” Riverside Fire Authority Assistant Chief Rick Mack said. “There is more than one possibility.”
Mack said if citizens have information about the fires they should contact the Riverside Fire Authority or the Centralia Police Department.
Investigators still have no leads or suspects for the three confirmed arsons and two un-determined fires on May 3.
Detectives from the Centra-lia Police Department are work-
ing with fire investigators from the RFA.
The RFA classifies fires as ei-ther accidental, natural, arson or undetermined.
Within 10 minutes on May 3, firefighters responded to two different locations about one mile apart.
The first arson occurred at the Church of the Nazarene at 1219 W. First St. at 3:20 a.m. and the second arson was at the Cen-terville Country and Western store on Lum Road. The fire at the store cause between $15,000 and $20,000 in damage.
Later that morning, police discovered someone had at-tempted to start a fire at the Cooks Hill Community Church on Cooks Hill Road. The at-tempted fire damaged the siding on the outside of the church.
The espresso stand and the chapel also caught fire that morning. The espresso stand fire caused moderate damage to the back of the stand and charred the back door. The chapel sustained about $5,000 in damage.
Mack said he wants to hear from citizens if they have any in-formation and he encourages them to use social media like Facebook and Twitter to watch for tips.
“The fires could be intention-al and until we get more infor-mation we can always reclassify (the fires),” Mack said.

FALSE ALARM: Empty Suitcase Brings Bomb Squad to Centralia Post Office
By The Chronicle
A suitcase left in the lobby of the Centralia Post Office prompted the temporary closure of part of Centralia College Bou-levard Tuesday.
A technician from the Washington State Patrol’s bomb squad entered the building at about 7:45 p.m. and emerged moments later carrying an empty suitcase.
The surrounding streets were quickly reopened.
Centralia police taped off the area shortly after respond-ing to the report of the “suspi-cious” suitcase at the post office at about 5:02 p.m., according to
Officer John Panco.“We’re being cautionary, call-
ing the experts that deal with this on a daily, weekly, monthly basis,” Panco said.
It’s the second time in re-cent weeks that a bomb squad has been called to Centralia. On April 22, a shoebox left in front of the police department at Cen-tralia City Hall on Pearl Street prompted the temporary clo-sure of North Pearl Street. WSP
bomb squad personnel arrived, inspected the box and deter-mined that it was empty.

The Associated Press
OLYMPIA — Washing-ton Gov. Jay Inslee on Tuesday signed into law a measure giv-ing legislative approval to a state program that has already issued hundreds of fake driver's licenses and license plates to law enforcement and government agencies.
The measure limits the dis-tribution of the undercover li-censes and plates to undercover or covert officers engaged in
"law enforcement activities" and Inslee said that the law, which takes effect immediately, gives
"legislative direction and param-eters" on how the program can now be used.
"That is different than preex-isting law in our state, because there was no such restriction on its use," he said after the signing.
While the license plate pro-gram had previously been codi-
fied in state law, the fake ID pro-gram has been operating without legislative approval — and in rela-tive secrecy — for years. The Kit-sap Sun and public radio's North-west News Network reported in April that the CIA has been using the program more than any feder-al, state or local agency. It's unclear if under the language of the new law whether the CIA could still receive licenses.
In response to a public re-cords request, the Department of Licensing last month showed the Kitsap Sun and Northwest News Network a list of agen-cies issued confidential licenses since 2007. The CIA topped the list with 288, followed by the Defense Department with 198. But in recent records released to the news organizations, includ-ing The Associated Press, no mention was made of the CIA or the number of licenses they have received.
"Everything released so far is what we're allowed to release un-der a combination of state and federal laws," said Brad Benfield, a spokesman for the Depart-ment of Licensing.
Some DOL employees have signed nondisclosure agree-ments with the U.S. government concerning the program.
Inslee said that moving for-ward, any nondisclosure agree-ments within any state agency have to personally be signed off on by the head of that agency.
On whether the CIA could still receive licenses under the new law, Inslee appeared to back off of his stance of last month, when a spokeswoman at the time said that he broadly inter-preted the meaning of "law en-forcement activities" to include the CIA.
When asked on Tuesday, Inslee responded that "the law is clear."
"We're going to follow the law,
to the letter," he said.Benfield said Tuesday that his
agency is still working with attor-neys on determining what quali-fies as a law enforcement function.
"In coming weeks we'll be working very closely with our at-torneys from the attorney gener-als office on further developing our processes and procedures to reflect this new law," he said.
Under the law, if requested by the Legislature, DOL must
provide a report containing all of the information that is subject to public disclosure.
Rep. Jason Overstreet, R-Lyn-den, expressed concerns that be-cause of the federal agreements, DOL will still not provide suffi-cient information about who will be getting licenses.
"It sounds like they're going to strictly adhere to the letter of the law and allow the CIA to do it, we just won't talk about it," he said.

WA License Plate Fee to Help Pay for Wolf Kills
OLYMPIA — Legislation signed Tuesday by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee adds $10 to the cost of a personalized Washing-ton license plate with the money going to help compensate live-stock owners for wolf kills.
The legislation was request-ed by the state Fish and Wild-life Department to reimburse farmers and ranchers who lose animals to the recovering wolf population.
State wildlife managers say
the wolf population doubled in Washington last year and they now estimate there are 50 to 100 gray wolves in at least 10 packs. Most of the wolves are in the northeast corner of the state in Okanogan, Fer-ry, Stevens and Pend Oreille counties.
News in Brief
Please Recycle This Newspaper
There’s nothing more ter-rifying to a parent than the thought of losing a child.
Sadly, abductions occur all too frequently across the United States and abroad, leaving par-ents with pain that is impossible to describe.
Wednesday was marked across the country as National Missing Children’s Day, aimed at bringing awareness to a prob-lem that can touch any commu-nity at any time.
Locally, Lewis County 911 dispatchers held a balloon re-lease and press conference at Stan Hedwall Park in Chehalis to mark the day.
It’s a good time to reflect on the ongoing case of Kayla Croft-Payne, who has been missing for more than three years. It’s not known whether or not she was abducted, but detectives have been exploring such leads as the Lewis County Sheriff ’s Office continues trying to determine what happened to the teenager.
Two weeks ago, the sheriff ’s office executed a search of a property near Winlock after receiving a tip that her remains were disposed of there. The search followed an announce-
ment by the sheriff ’s office that it had ruled out a tip that her disappearance was linked to a modeling website.
The search of the property turned up no clues, but the sheriff ’s office is to be com-mended for continuing to in-vestigate the disappearance and hash out all clues.
“The search was long and ex-haustive,” Lewis County Sheriff Steve Mansfield said. “The detectives worked very hard and were extremely diligent and thorough in the process of searching this property. This case has been troubling for our office and we still hope to find
Kayla and bring closure to her family and friends.”
Closure for the family and friends of Croft-Payne, and those of others who remain missing, is something we should all hope and pray for.
Gilmore Thanked
We would like to congratu-late Centralia High School Teacher Tim Gilmore on his upcoming retirement after a 41-year career in education.
Gilmore exemplifies the type of educator and coach that we should all hope to have in our classrooms. Several of
his current students voiced praise for his tender yet firm teaching techniques in a story in Tuesday’s edition of The Chronicle.
Fellow teacher and baseball coach Josh Rodland summed up the thoughts of many.
“He changed their lives,” Rodland said. “He looks them in the eyes and tells them he loves them. And if anyone knows how to use tough love, it’s Tim Gilmore.”
We suspect Gilmore will still be a regular presence at local sporting events. We wish him the best as he explores life away from teaching.

Haney Wasn’t an Officer, But a VigilanteTo the editor:
I would like to comment on former Lewis County Sheriff John McCroskey’s commentary in The Chronicle May 18 (page Main 8, “It’s Risky Business Being a Lawman”). McCroskey includ-ed John Haney in his list of local officers who have died in the line of duty.
He stated: “In 1919, civilian John Haney was shot and killed after being deputized to assist with the arrest of ‘protesters’ who had shot and killed four soldiers in the Armistice Day Parade a few days earlier.” I was surprised to learn that people who de-fend their home and rented hall against attack are called “protest-ers,” and that vigilantes deputized in the heat of passion are consid-ered “law officers.”
Erroneously believing that union men were hiding in a cabin in the heavily-wooded Hanaford Valley, Frank Van Glider led a gang of vigilantes who had been quickly deputized. “The posse decided to split up and surround the cabin. When they met al-most face to face in the thick un-derbrush, one of the posse men yelled “Halt! Who goes there?”
When no one answered they began firing. The gun battle raged for more than an hour. Posse member John Haney, a 49-year-old farmer and father of 10 children, was shot three times. There were no Wobblies present.
The next day, the newspaper reported that a major gun battle had taken place with the Wob-blies. When the truth came out a few days later, Haney’s death was declared an accident, and no further investigation was needed. Because he had been mistaken for an IWW member, it was justifiable homicide. (Page 139, “Ripples of a Lie” as cited in interview with Jim Barner (Jan. 28, 1981), and Centralia Daily
Chronicle, Nov. 19, 1919, page 1)I am the daughter of Eugene
Barnett, an innocent unarmed eyewitness, who was framed to keep him from testifying for the defense and sent to prison along with seven other innocent union men in the Centralia incident of 1919. Because the prisoners re-mained friends for life, I was for-tunate to know many of the peo-ple who were actually there. My book, “Ripples of a Lie,” a biogra-phy of my father that includes the Centralia incident, was published in 2011. It is true and my facts are proven and documented.
McCroskey’s statement is simply not true. I’m sure he does not wish to perpetuate this lie. Yes, he is certainly right that we expect a lot from our police offi-cers, but we also expect honesty. I hope that poor Mr. Haney will not be included in the new me-morial bringing more insult to his family and further embar-rassment to Centralia.
Ten children grew up without their father because he was killed, not in the line of duty as implied, but in a shootout with his fellow
“officers.” It is true that on TV the truth is learned and crimes are solved in 60 minutes, but in Cen-tralia it takes over 90 years.

DUIs Take Lives of 28 People Every DayTo the editor:
I was just as horrified as ev-eryone else by the recent shoot-ing at the Sandy Hook Elemen-tary School, in which 28 people died. It was a senseless loss of life and certainly deserved the public outcry it received. This letter is in no way meant to re-duce the severity of that event.
The same number of people, 28, die everyday across the U.S. in DUI-related accidents. What surprises me is that there is no public hue and cry against these deaths, which are also senseless and are 100 percent prevent-able. Many cases of DUI-related deaths involve the impaired driv-er killing members of his or her own family traveling with them.
While the public attitude has changed over the years, it still has a long way to go. In the 1960s and 1970s it was “OK” to have a few drinks and get be-hind the wheel, as punishments were little more than civil fines.
Fast forward to the 21st cen-tury and you find that the pub-lic has little patience for DUI drivers, but it continues to hap-pen. Innocent people are dying at the rate of 28 per day. There needs to be more public educa-tion regarding just how little an amount of alcohol in someone’s system can impair them, and the laws need to be stiffened.
Currently, the fifth DUI charge will result in it being a felony. Five times? Everyone de-serves benefit of the doubt and the first DUI (with no collision/injury/death) should be a chance for the person to learn and move on. Anything after that is a pat-tern and needs to be handled as such with stiff jail time.
Looking at the problem from a national standpoint, it can seem overwhelming but it actually comes down to this being a local problem for every community. If we work together to reduce DUI-related incidents in each of our communities, the ripple effect will happen across the nation.
These are preventable and needless deaths that we all have the power to stop and we need to work together to not drive under the influence and make it clear it is not OK for others to do.

It’s been 33 years — almost a third of a century — since Mount St. Helens blew its stack, and while I’m still able I’d like to write about my own involve-ment in that event.
First of all, for the benefit of newcomers who have moved into Washington state, there was not one, but two main eruptions of the mountain in 1980, and they both occurred on Sundays, one week apart. The first is the more famous of the two; it did the most damage and made a larger impact on the moun-tain and the Northwest.
It was the second one, on May 25, though, that affected us here in central Lewis County. To set the stage for my own in-volvement, I had been elected mayor of Centralia and was less than five months into my term of office when I received a phone call in the middle of the night from a Centralia police dispatcher that the mountain had erupted again and the ash cloud was heading in our direc-tion. (Centralia, Chehalis and Lewis County each had their own dispatch centers in those days.)
Also in those days most of our water came from the North Fork of the Newaukum River and was stored in two open, uncovered water reservoirs on Seminary Hill. Having seen the damage caused by the ini-tial eruption, I was concerned about our potential water qual-ity and immediately phoned the city’s water and wastewater superintendent, Art Lehman, to advise him to shut down those reservoirs and utilize only water from four wells in the city, two of which had, thankfully, only recently been put into operation.
Since it was still the middle of the night, nothing much could be done until daylight, and I went back to sleep. It felt as if it was only immediately thereafter that the phone rang again and Bill Rickard, the pub-lic works commissioner, called and asked, “What are we going to do, Mayor” (For some reason he always called me “Mayor,” never Bill.”) I answered that I thought it best to wait until day-light and he said, “Mayor, it’s 10 o’clock in the morning.”
That’s how dark those clouds of ash made our daylight.
Amounts may have varied from one location to another,
but approximately a half-inch of ash covered every speck of our area. Centralia didn’t have enough equipment to deal with such a calamity, and we couldn’t borrow some from other cities, because every piece of spare equipment had already been sent to Eastern Washington to deal with their mess. We were on our own, as was Chehalis and every other local commu-nity around us.
We initially tried flushing the ash away with water from our hydrants. That was a big mistake; the mess didn’t behave like ash, but instead like the fine pulverized rock it actually was, and it began to clog the storm drains. I wouldn’t be surprised to find remnants of it still in those drains after all these years.
The only way to get it off roofs, lawns and sidewalks was with brooms, shovels or scoops and wheelbarrows, and then haul it to the streets where city trucks could collect it.
My memory is vague these days as to what we did with it after that. I seem to recall that some was taken to the rear of Fort Borst Park, and some ended up at what was still called
“the dump.” Our block on F Street held a work party where the more able-bodied among us helped the older residents with their cleanup. Many other neighborhoods did the same.
We had our share of yahoos in pickups who sped through the affected areas, just to take a look, and consequently redis-tributed ash that had already been collected. I had another name for those drivers, but this is a family newspaper.
All told, it was a combination of using limited city resources and citizen involvement that pulled us through, although small pockets of ash still make themselves visible from time to time after all these years.

SAME OWNER, DIFFERENT
NAME: Coffee Shop Offers Sit-Down Atmosphere Along with Drive-Through Option
By Kyle Spurr
Coffee drinkers in Centralia have another spot to sit by a fire and enjoy a hot drink.
Fiddlers Coffee, formally known as Cuppa Joe, opened a new, larger location last week-end on Mellen Street next to where the previous coffee stand was.
The two-story, roughly 2,500-square-foot building of-fers customers a place to sit on couches or at wooden tables to drink their coffee, or use the drive-through window for or-ders on the go.
Although the Hub City al-ready has the Brownstown Cof-fee Lounge, which opened in December, and Santa Lucia, Fid-dlers Coffee owners believe they serve a completely different cli-entele off Interstate 5 and are not in direct competition with the coffee shops downtown.
“It’s been in the works for a while and we were already in the process of building the new shop,” said Liddy Voetberg, a manager and daughter of Joe Voetberg, who owns Fiddlers Coffee. “We didn’t feel threat-ened by them.”
Fiddlers Coffee was estab-lished in 2004 as Cuppa Joe in Centralia by Joe and Lisa Voet-berg.
The name change stems from the fact that other Cuppa Joe shops exist around the coun-try. The Voetberg family, known for their family band that plays the fiddle, decided to change the name to something the incorpo-rated the family.
“When we were talking about opening our own shop, we want-ed to separate ourselves from other coffee shops,” Liddy said.
“We are fiddlers and we are the only one.”
The move from coffee stand to larger coffee shop was pushed forward about three years ago when the Washington State Department of Transportation contacted Joe about vacating the coffee stand to comply with eminent domain laws because of the Mellen Street construction project.
The Voetbergs were able to purchase the land next to the coffee stand where Fiddlers Cof-fee is now located.
WSDOT paid the Voetbergs $425,000 for his lot and another
$20,000 for a section of his new piece of land. Joe said construc-tion for the Fiddlers Coffee building cost about $800,000.
“It ended up working out really well,” Liddy said. “We opened May 18 and (WSDOT) said they were going to demol-ish (the old coffee stand) on May 21. We made it out in the knick of time.”
WSDOT completely demol-ished the old Cuppa Joe coffee stand in Centralia on Wednes-day.
To accommodate more cus-
tomers in the new location, Fid-dlers Coffee hired seven new employees, which increases the entire staff to 25 employees.
Liddy said the new coffee shop has plans for outdoor con-certs in the grass and acoustic music inside, including possible performances by the Voetbergs.
However, before the shop starts planning events, Liddy said, they want to focus on the coffee.
Fiddlers Coffee partners with Caffé D'arte, a Seattle-based coffee roaster.
“We want to get the coffee part right first,” Liddy said.

Gerhard’s Steakhouse, for-merly known as Mary Mc-Crank’s, has closed.
Realtor Pete Bezy, who is helping the owners sell their neighboring 1-acre lot along Jackson Highway, said the res-taurant closed last Friday and the owners, Gerhard and Jeri Schopp, have moved back to Colorado.
Attempts by The Chronicle
to contact the owners were un-successful.
Bezy said he will not be the one selling the restaurant and didn’t know what the owners had planned for the building.
Gerhard’s Steakhouse, which took on the name of chef and co-owner Gerhard Schopp in No-vember, also changed its menu at the same time, adding aged Angus steaks, seafood and spe-
cialty items. Gerhard also served dishes from his native Germany such as schnitzel, red cabbage and spaetzle.
Gerhard’s son Ryan Schopp, who co-owned the restau-rant with his parents, told The Chronicle in November that Mary McCrank’s lost its selling power and led to misconcep-tions about how the business should be run, which led to the
name change. “People think it was supposed
to be home-cooked grandma’s house food, but really she was about quality product and good food,” Ryan said. “So by doing our own thing, we start a new chapter.”
The restaurant's old name-sake bought the restaurant in 1935 and operated it as the Shamrock Inn before changing to Mary McCrank’s.

RACE ON: Four Incumbents, Four Newcomers Filed Last Week
By Lisa Broadt
Frank Anderson on Friday joined the Tenino City Council race with 10 minutes to go.
His decision to file for Coun-cil Position 1 came after days of deliberation; though Anderson has long been involved with city governance, he also has faced criticism over the last year for
unpaid water bills and nuisance properties, issues that are being examined in a court of appeals. Ultimately, he decided to give it another shot.
“I believe I have a whole lot of things to offer, a lot of knowledge,” Anderson said Tuesday. “I can remember 15 years ago when folks talked about this is what we’re going to do, and guess what? They got it done.”
Soon after Anderson’s fil-
ing, though, another candidate dropped out. Citing health con-cerns, newcomer Terry Hickey on Monday withdrew from the Council Position 3 race.
Now, citizen Sirena Painter and incumbent Anderson chal-lenge Bret Brodersen, the mayor pro tem, for Position 1. John O’Callahan, a former city coun-cilor, challenges incumbent Robert Scribner for Position 3, which is currently held by An-derson. Citizens Craig Lester and Cynthia Palm will duke it out for Position 4, currently held by Scribner.
Only David Watterson, Council Position 2, runs unop-
posed. Position 5, occupied by Wayne Fournier, is not up for election this year.
Anderson did not jump into the Position 1 race to challenge Brodersen, he said.
Rather, that race, Anderson said, probably will allow him not to face any incumbent.
Should current Mayor Eric Strawn step down at the end of the month, Brodersen is the forerunner for that position, ac-cording to Anderson and several other city councilors.
Should Brodersen remain in the council race, however, the field of three would be narrowed down to two via a primary race.

Homophobia Topic of Lyceum Talk
Erin Davies, whose Volkswa-gen bug was tagged with anti-gay slurs in 2007, will be speaking at the Centralia College Lyceum at 1 p.m. Wednesday in Corbet Theatre.
Rather than get her car fixed, Davies decided to embrace what happened by keeping the graffiti on her car for one year to evoke a dialogue with the general pub-lic about homophobia. Not only did she want America to see the spray-painted words, she wanted help coming up with a solution.
Davies planned a 58-day cross-country trip in her car now known worldwide as
the “Fagbug” and produced an award winning documentary about the adventure that is now on Netflix, itunes, Hulu and in libraries around the country.
After driving the car for a year, Erin decided to give the car a make-over. She now tours with her rain-bow Volkswagen Beetle speaking at universities across North America.

APPEAL DENIED: Owner of Controversial Halfway House Says She is Being Unfairly Targeted
By Lisa Broadt
Six residents who currently occupy the House of the Rising Son, a Chehalis halfway house, must vacate the property within 20 days, a hearings examiner told Judy Chafin, the property’s owner, on Tuesday night.
Since its establishment in 2006, House of the Rising Son has been an incendiary topic, one which ignited heated argu-ments about the safety of having recently-released convicts living in a residential area.
The Tuesday night appeals hearing was not, however, held to address those concerns.
Rather, Hearings Examiner John McKerricher wanted to determine whether the 7,000- square-foot facility located at 252 SW 14th Street poses a literal fire hazard to residents and neighbors, as alleged by the City of Chehalis.
After an hour and a half of tes-timony, McKerricher ruled that the building, in its current capac-ity as a halfway house, does in-deed pose a threat. His decision to deny Chafin’s appeal and uphold Chehalis’ Feb. 25 order to abate, effectively shuts down House of the Rising Son’s Chehalis branch
— unless Chafin can win her case in the Court of Appeals.
If she chooses to appeal, she must take her case to the higher court within 10 days.
The Chehalis-based House of the Rising Son is the third branch of Chafin’s organization to face mandatory closure. In August, a lawsuit filed by Lewis County effectively shut down facilities at 110 Nix Road, west of Chehalis, and 276 Clark Road, near Onalaska.
JUDY CHAFIN SEES HER tenants — which range from as few as six men to as many as 17, depend-ing on who you ask — as one family unit.
As such, House of the Rising Son should be subject to the city’s regulations for single-family or duplex dwellings, Chafin argued during Tuesday’s hearing.
“Some of my residents can’t af-ford to pay,” Chafin said, speak-ing through a surgical mask. “So what I do, is I help them.”
“We’re a family of God, your honor,” she said.
In Chehalis, a single-family home requires only a few, simple fire safety measures.
But the city — as well as McKerricher — does not see Chafin and her boarders as a single family. Some of the House of the Rising Son boarders pay $300 in monthly rent and none are related.
Accordingly, the halfway house is subject to the zoning and code requirements appro-priate for a boarding-house like facility, including a fire alarm system, a sprinkler system, car-bon monoxide detectors, ade-quate separation between rooms and sufficient space to reach and escape through windows, Chehalis Attorney Amanda Vey and other city officials said on Tuesday.
“We don’t want to send our first responders in there to take care of a situation ... We’re put-ting our own in danger,” Che-halis Building Inspector Travis
Amundson said. “Our job is public health, safety and wel-fare.”
The problem for Chafin is that the required changes simply aren’t feasible.
Since a previous inspection, conducted five years ago, Chafin has upgraded her electrical in-frastructure and now has work-ing smoke alarms. She also has installed new windows, each of which opens and closes properly.
But, even if she had the mon-ey to install the now-required sprinklers, the 100-year-old house wouldn’t support them. Nor can she afford to expand all the windows or thicken the walls between the rooms, she said.
Unfortunately, if she can’t meet code, she can’t continue to have multiple, unrelated tenants, McKerricher said.
“If the space is more than two units you have to comply with (the appropriate regulations),” McKerricher told her. “I appreci-ate this is an old building, I ap-preciate there’s no way to bring it up to code and I also appreciate that what you do probably pro-vides a service to the community.”
“The problem is, it’s in the wrong place,” he said. “You’re in the midst of a lot of residential, single-family homes and du-plexes, and this is not the kind of facility that should be there.”
IN 1999, 252 SW 14TH STREET was converted from a church to a single family unit. Seven years later, Chafin purchased the home, and two years after that, Chafin sought a conditional use permit which would have al-lowed her to convert the build-ing to an outreach shelter.
At that time, McKerricher denied her permit request, and the city of Chehalis notified Chafin of certain necessary building upgrades.
For the next four years, she continued to run the House of the Rising Son as a nonprofit.
In November of 2012, the city received a business license appli-cation from one of the House of the Rising Son occupants.
At that point, Chehalis had the authority to inspect the premises to verify that the half-way house was in compliance with the previously filed abate-ment notices.
City officials conducted that investigation in December of 2012. In February, they sent Chafin the letter of abatement
which described Rising Son’s facility as an unsafe structure, filled with unsafe equipment, one that does not conform to the appropriate use.
Consequently, the city con-cluded, the House of the Rising Son tenants had to get out.
CHAFIN, ON TUESDAY, intimated that she has been unfairly tar-geted by local government of-ficials. Asked what action she wished the court to take, for example, she said she’d like to have an investigation conducted by an officer not from the city of Chehalis.
McKerricher, during his questioning of Riverside Fire
Marshal Richard Mack, also touched on the possibility that Chafin has been singled out.
Following Mack’s testimony that the December inspection was conducted by himself, Code Enforcement Officer Angie Elder, Building Inspector Tra-vis Amundsen and retired Fire Chief Kelvin Johnson, McKer-richer asked if a four-person team was customary for such inspections.
Mack replied that it was not.“I don’t know that that’s nor-
mal,” Mack said. “It might have been at the request of Lewis County.”
Speaking after the hearing, Chafin describe her civil rights
as being “stepped all over.”Chafin previously faced
abatement charges from the county; that county-filed suit resulted in the vacation of two other Rising Son facilities.
IN JUNE OF 2012, Lewis County officials filed a lawsuit in which they alleged that Chafin’s other Rising Son facilities — one west of Chehalis and one in Onalaska
— violated county zoning codes and “altered the character of the area.” The county filed the suit against property owners Janice Thompson and Larry Gladsjo, as well as Chafin.
Under pressure from the property owners, Chafin and the Rising Son tenants in Au-gust vacated the properties.
The county’s lawsuit, owner Janice Thompson said, alerted her to nearby residents’ con-cerns about having convicted sex offenders and former crimi-nals in the neighborhood.
In fact, the neighbors had al-ready taken action by forming a community watch program, ac-cording to Lewis County Sheriff Steve Mansfield.
The neighbors, Mansfield said, lost their sense of safety and and security with so many convicted felons living together in a rural place.
THE HOUSE OF THE Rising Son owner has had multiple run-ins with the law. Most recently, she was arrested last week for drug-related charges.
She and Keith Williams were arrested on Thursday when a police detective pulled Williams over for allegedly driving with a suspended license, according to court documents.
During the traffic stop, Cha-fin arrived on scene and alleg-edly interfered with the investi-gation. She also was arrested.
When police searched her purse, they found a prescription for hydrocodone and a number of morphine pills for which she apparently did not have a pre-scription.
Both opioids appeared to match the types of pills previ-ously sold to an undercover in-formant, as part of an ongoing investigation into Chafin and Williams, according to Chehalis Detective Sgt. Gary Wilson.
Police also are investigating Chafin for possible forger of a car title and possible possession of a stolen vehicle, according to court documents.
During her preliminary court appearance Friday after-noon, she was charged with two counts of delivery of a controlled substance and one count of pos-session of a controlled substance.

Nation/WorldNation in Brief
With Warnings About Continued Threats to U.S., Obama Seeks to Open Secretive Terror Policies
WASHINGTON (AP) — Amid lingering concerns about his national security policies, President Barack Obama is out-lining measures to clarify the deadly use of drones against terror suspects, make good on a pledge to close the controver-sial prison at Guantanamo Bay and warn Americans about dire threats they continue to face — even from fellow citizens.
On the eve of a speech Thurs-day at the National Defense Uni-versity, the Obama administra-tion revealed for the first time that a fourth American citizen had been killed in secretive drone strikes abroad. The kill-ings of three other Americans in counterterror operations since 2009 were known before a let-ter from Attorney General Eric Holder to Senate Judiciary Com-mittee Chairman Patrick Leahy acknowledged the four deaths.
Obama’s speech is expected to reaffirm his national security priorities — from homegrown terrorists to killer drones to the enemy combatants held at the military-run detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba — but make no new sweeping policy announcements. The White House has offered few clues on how the president will address questions that have dogged his administration for years and, critics say, given foreign allies mixed signals about U.S. in-tentions in some of the world’s most volatile areas.
Obama will try to refocus an increasingly apathetic public on security issues as his adminis-tration grapples with a series of unrelated controversies stem-ming from the attack on a U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, the IRS’ targeting of conserva-tive groups and government monitoring of reporters. His message will also be carefully analyzed by an international au-dience that has had to adapt to what counterterror expert Peter Singer described as the admin-istration’s disjointed and often short-sighted security policies.
“He is really wresting with a broader task, which is laying out an overdue case for regularizing our counterterrorism strategy itself,” said Singer, director of the Brookings Institution’s 21st Century Security and Intel-ligence Center in Washington.
“It’s both a task in terms of being a communicator, and a task in term of being a decider.”
As Scouting’s Leaders Vote on Allowing Gay Youth, Group Faces Fraught Moment, Uncertainty
GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — The Boy Scouts of America’s national leadership will vote to-day whether to allow openly gay Scouts in its ranks, a critical and emotionally charged moment for one of the nation’s oldest youth organizations and its mil-lions of members.
About 1,400 voting members of BSA’s national council are to cast ballots today on a resolution that would end a policy that al-lows youth Scouts to be excluded based only on sexual orientation. The ban on gay adult leaders would remain in place.
The vote is taking place at a resort in Grapevine, Texas, not far from BSA’s headquar-ters, during the national coun-cil’s three-day annual meeting. While the meeting was closed to the public, it was closely watched by supporters and opponents of a change. Both sides on Wednes-day made a final effort to explain their positions. Gay-rights sup-porters and others who want the policy changed held a summit at a nearby resort, while opponents held signs on the street next to the entrance and a rally nearby.
The results are expected to be announced shortly after 5 p.m. CDT today.
World in Brief
UK Emergency Response Committee Meets After Man Butchered in London
LONDON (AP) — The Brit-ish government’s emergency committee met Thursday after two attackers butchered a man in a daylight attack in London that raised fears terrorism had returned to the capital.
Prime Minister David Camer-on says there are strong indications it was an act of terrorism, and his top advisers will be examining the potential security implications of the attack, which took place near a London military barracks.
One of the attackers went on video to explain the crime
— shouting political statements, gesturing with bloodied hands and waving a meat cleaver. Po-lice shot and wounded the un-identified assailants and took them into custody.
Authorities did not identify the victim by name, but French Presi-dent Francois Hollande referred to him as a “soldier” at a news confer-ence in Paris with Cameron, who was visiting. Cameron would not confirm that, but British media say the victim was wearing a shirt in support of troops and Britain’s Ministry of Defense said it was in-vestigating whether a U.K. soldier was involved.
Kerry and Netanyahu Raise Hopes for Mideast Peace Talks Restart
JERUSALEM (AP) — The United States and Israel raised hopes Thursday for a restart of the Middle East peace process, despite little tangible progress so far from U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s two-month-old ef-fort to get Israelis and Palestin-ians back to the negotiating table.
As they met in Jerusalem, Kerry praised Israeli Prime Min-ister Benjamin Netanyahu for the “seriousness” with which he is looking at ways to revitalize peace hopes. Kerry expressed optimism without outlining any concrete strategy for ending a stalemate between the two sides that has seen them hardly negotiate one-on-one at all over the last 4½ years.
“I know this region well enough to know there is skep-ticism, in some quarters there is cynicism and there are rea-sons for it,” Kerry told reporters.
“There have been bitter years of disappointment. It is our hope that by being methodical, care-ful, patient — but detailed and tenacious — that we can lay on a path ahead that can conceivably surprise people and certainly ex-haust the possibilities of peace.”
Stricken Japan Nuke Plant Struggles to Keep Workers
TOKYO (AP) — Keeping the meltdown-stricken Fukushima nuclear plant in northeastern Ja-pan in stable condition requires a cast of thousands. Increasingly the plant’s operator is struggling to find enough workers, a trend that many expect to worsen and hamper progress in the decades-long effort to safely decommis-sion it.
Tokyo Electric Power Co., the utility that runs the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant that melted down in March 2011 after being hit by a tsunami, is finding that it can barely meet the headcount of workers required to keep the three broken reactors cool while fighting power outages and leaks of tons of radiated water, said current and former nuclear plant workers and others familiar with the situation at Fukushima.
Construction jobs are al-ready plentiful in the area due to rebuilding of tsunami ravaged towns and cities. Other public works spending planned by the government, under the “Abe-nomics” stimulus programs of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, is likely to make well-paying con-struction jobs more abundant. And less risky, better paid decon-tamination projects in the region irradiated by the Fukushima meltdown are another draw.

BISMARCK, N.D. — A dam that threatened to give way and flood a North Dakota town was holding back the water on Wednesday, though the 1,300 residents of Cavalier were still being told to stay away from their homes.
Steady rainfall between Friday and Tuesday dumped about 9 inches of rain on parts of Pembina County, swelling creeks and rivers and send-ing water flowing across the countryside from west to east in the east-sloping county. The small town of Crystal flooded Tuesday, forcing a few residents from their homes, and people in Cavalier — about 85 miles north of Grand Forks — were told to evacuate Tuesday night as a precaution should the Ren-wick Dam about six miles west of town on the Tongue River be overwhelmed.
The evacuations included two or three patients at a hos-pital and 63 people in a nursing home and assisted living center,
county Emergency Manager Andrew Kirking said. They were taken either to care facilities in surrounding communities or to the homes of relatives.
Local, state and federal officials built an emergency levee with the help of the Na-tional Guard on Tuesday to try
to prevent f loodwaters from eroding the emergency spill-way at the earth-and-concrete Renwick Dam. The levee was being reinforced and moni-tored Wednesday as the area enjoyed sunshine instead of rain clouds for the first time in five days.
$2B in Oklahoma Tornado Damage Means Hard Recovery By Ramit Plushnick-Masti and Sean Murphy
The Associated Press
MOORE, Okla. — All that is left of Shayne Patteson’s three-bedroom home is the tiny area where his wife hunkered down under a mattress to protect their three children when a tor-nado packing winds of at least 200 mph slammed through his neighborhood.
Patteson vowed to rebuild, likely in the same place, but said next time he will have an under-ground storm shelter.
“That is the first thing that will be going into the design of the house, is the storm shelter and the garage,” he said as he looked around piles of bricks and ply-wood where their home once stood.
Patteson’s home was among as many as 13,000 homes dam-aged or destroyed Monday when the twister plowed through the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore. About 33,000 people were af-fected, officials said, though the number left homeless was still unknown because most of the displaced were believed to be staying with friends or relatives; only two dozen or so have stayed overnight at Red Cross shelters.
Officials estimated the dam-age could top $2 billion.
AT THE SAME TIME, more details emerged on the human toll, in-cluding heartbreaking stories about the final moments of some of the children who were among the 24 people killed. One elementary school was reduced
to rubble when the tornado hit. Another was heavily damaged.
WHILE ANGUISH OVER the deaths was palpable as residents began to pick up their shattered neighborhoods, many remained stunned that the twister didn’t take a higher human toll during its 40 minutes on the ground.
“The tornado that we’re talk-ing about is the 1 or 2 percent tornado,” Oklahoma Depart-ment of Emergency Manage-ment Director Albert Ashwood said of the twister, which mea-sured a top-of-the-scale EF5 with winds of at least 200 mph.
“This is the anomaly that flattens everything to the ground.”
THE MEDICAL EXAMINER re-
ported that six of the children who died at the Plaza Towers Elementary School suffocated after being buried under a mass of bricks, steel and other materi-als as the building collapsed. A seventh child who perished there, 8-year-old Kyle Davis, was killed instantly by an object — perhaps a large piece of stone or a beam — that fell on the back of his neck.
The first of the funerals is to take place Thursday morning, for 9-year-old Antonia Cande-laria, who also died at the school.
With all of the missing now accounted for, response teams transitioned into cleanup and recovery, and authorities for-mally allowed residents back into the damage zone Wednes-day to start the monumental task of rebuilding their lives.

PROHIBITED: Employers Cannot Ask for Social Media Passwords During Job Interview Process
By Manuel Valdes
Associated Press
SEATTLE — Washington became the fifth state this year to sign into law protections of social media passwords at the workplace and job interviews.
Gov. Jay Inslee signed the bill Tuesday, wrapping up a session of negotiations between privacy advocates and business lobby-ists who were worried that the new law would hamper security for proprietary or confidential information.
The measure, sponsored by Democrat Sen. Steve Hobbs
of Lake Stevens, bars employ-ers from asking for a Facebook, Twitter or other social media personal passwords during a job interview or at the workplace. It also bars employers from mak-ing workers friend managers so that their profile is viewable.
The bill, however, allows companies to request "content"
of employee social media sites during internal investigations, which can be opened if an em-ployer has received a tip that a worker may be leaking informa-tion.
"In that circumstance, the employer may request the leaked content, but there is no require-ment that the employee turn it
over. The employer is given no more power to force disclosure of that information than exists under current law," said Shan-kar Narayan of the Washington state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.
That last provision was the result of negotiations prompt-ed by an earlier amendment that allowed employers to ask for a password during these investigations, essentially gut-ting the original bill's intent. That version was thrown out after pushback from privacy advocates.
"We don't have to sacrifice our privacy for advances in technol-ogy," Hobbs said. "As the social media technology advances people are afraid about their privacy, it's good to be ahead on this one."
The Associated Press report-ed last year that some employers around the country were asking applicants for their social media information.
In 2012 and this year, eight states banned employers from asking job applicants and em-ployees for their social network passwords, with some excep-tions.
"We're trying to assure peo-ple's privacy in this space, that we (have) vigilance and the abil-ity to move on a moment's notice when people's privacy has been violated," Inslee said. "I think it is a solid step to give people pri-vacy, but I would not be shocked if there's some new app or appli-cation or a laser beam hologram technology we haven't dreamed of yet that makes further work necessary."

YEARLY EARNINGS: Many College Coach Salaries Top More Than Seven Figures; University Presidents Next on List With Six Figure Earnings
OLYMPIA (AP) — College coaches are the top-paid state employees in Washington, ac-cording to a list recently released by the state Office of Financial Management.
University of Washington football coach Steve Sarkisian earned $2.7 million last year, followed by Washington State University football coach Mike Leach at $2.3 million. Third on the list is UW basketball coach Lorenzo Romar at $1.35 million, and fourth is WSU coach Ken Bone at $855,000.
Coaches are paid from ath-letic department revenue, such as ticket sales and television rights or gifts, not taxpayer funds.
The first non-coach is fifth on the list — Washington State University President Elson Floyd at $625,000, and sixth is UW president Michael Young at $563,000.
A total of 68 state em-ployees earned more than $300,000. Most of them are in higher education, and many are paid through research grants, not taxes or tuition. Many of the highest-paid UW employees are in high-de-mand, high-paying fields such
as medicine or computer sci-ence, the Office of Financial Management said.
Christine Gregoire earned $162,000 as governor of Wash-ington in 2012, after forfeiting a portion of her pay when other state workers' pay was cut. Most saw a 3 percent reduction since July 2011.
Salaries for the governor and other statewide elected officials and judges are set by the Wash-ington Commission on Salaries for Elected Officials.
Coaches Best-Paid State Employees in Washington
By Carol M. Ostrom
The Seattle Times
Despite opposition by hos-pitals and the state Department of Health, Gov. Jay Inslee sided with patient advocates Tuesday to retain a requirement that hos-pitals report infections resulting from hip and knee replacements and cardiac surgeries.
The new law, enacted by HB 1471, requires hospitals, which have had to report those infec-tions since 2007, to continue for another four years.
It also expands reporting to include central-line infections in all hospital areas, rather than just in intensive-care units, and infections resulting from colon surgery.
Central lines are tubes placed in patients to put fluids, blood products, chemotherapy and other drugs directly into the bloodstream.
The bill was passed unani-mously by both the House and Senate earlier this year.
Inslee spokeswoman Jaime Smith said Inslee prefers greater transparency in health care and believes such infections can lead to serious harm.
The Washington State Hospi-tal Association (WSHA), backed by the state Department of Health, argued to the governor that hos-pitals need to streamline their re-porting requirements by aligning with federal requirements, which do not include reporting infec-tions from hip and knee replace-ments or cardiac surgery.
“The reporting system is very cumbersome,” said Cassie Sauer, WSHA’s senior vice president for advocacy and government af-fairs.
In addition, Sauer said, infec-tion rates for those procedures are low, differences among dif-ferent hospitals are statistically insignificant and the informa-tion isn’t very useful to the public without national comparisons.
Inslee apparently sided with Consumers Union and local pa-tient advocates, who argued that hip, knee and cardiac surgeries were among the most common procedures in many hospitals, and in many cases are elective, meaning that patients might choose among hospitals.
“Because these surgeries are so common, consumers want to know about their associated in-fection rates,” Consumers Union noted in a letter to Inslee.
In addition, the group said that although the surgeries have been included in state infection-reporting law since 2007, con-sumers have so far seen only one year of data.
“Hospitals are trying to elimi-nate this reporting requirement because they claim it is too much of a burden,” said Lisa McGiffert, director of Consumers Union’s Safe Patient Project.” But we think they are really critical pro-cedures for public reporting.”

April 28, 2010, after leaving a friend’s house in Cowlitz County. She was reported miss-ing a few days later by a friend. Since her disappearance, both her family and the sheriff ’s of-fice have received numerous tips about possible whereabouts, but none have led to anything sub-stantial.
“I’ll never give up hope,” Croft said. “I’m on the In-ternet every day. I’m asking questions every day. It keeps me going.”
Croft asks that the commu-nity keep praying for Kayla’s safe return, adding that the young woman is more than a daughter — she is also a moth-er to a 4 ½ year old girl.
“If you got any tips or lead or anything — call it in,” Croft said.
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children was created in 1984. The ini-tial method of getting pictures and information about missing children out to the public was by putting pictures on the back of milk cartons. Now, local law enforcement officials have a variety of avenues to spread in-formation about missing and abducted children, including the Amber Alert system and the Internet.
Locally, Gordon Trucking has partnered with Washing-
ton State Patrol and worked to put large, age-enhanced photos
of 16 different missing children on the sides of 81 trailers. One of
the trucks features a picture of Croft-Payne.
“Milk cartons have been re-placed with Gordon Trucking in terms of getting their faces out there,” Larsen said.
Lewis County 911 commu-nications partners with the Na-tional Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and all the dispatchers went through addi-tional training to learn how to best handle child abduction 911 calls, Larsen said.
“We are committed to do-ing the very best job in train-ing and awareness,” Larsen said, later adding, “You never get do-overs. The first few moments in an abduction are the most im-portant.”
Saturday is the nationwide date for Missing Children’s Day. Part of the national aware-ness day’s purpose is the Take 25 Campaign — an education program that urges parents and adults to take 25 minutes and speak with their children about safety.
It is crucial for young chil-dren to learn their addresses, phone numbers, and parents’ names so if they get lost or something happens, they will be able to give that informa-tion to law enforcement, Lars-en said.
Likely due in large part to sea-sonal hiring, Lewis County has seen unemployment drop from March to April every year since 2007, according to Jim Vlem-ing, a labor market economist for Lewis, Grays Harbor, Pacific, Mason and Thurston counties.
“The month to month change is a seasonal type thing,” Vlem-ing said, “but a more legitimate sign of recovery is the change from last year; we’re so far down from where we were a year ago.”
“We could potentially get out of double digits by the end of the summer,” he said.
If the county follows historic trends, unemployment from April to May will see no signifi-cant change.
The average income in Lewis County in 2011 was $34,317; the statewide average was $50,257. According to Vleming, the state-wide annual income figures are skewed by King County’s large, high-wage employers like Mi-crosoft, Boeing and Amazon.
The Employment Security Department will release new figures for 2012 this spring.

News in Brief
Morton Dental Clinic to Host Free Dental DayBy The Chronicle
Valley View Health Center is sponsoring a free dental day on May 31 at the Morton Dental Clinic.
The free clinic is for people who do not have dental insur-ance or cannot afford care. Those interested in signing up for an appointment need to call the clinic at (360) 496-5101 on May 30, the day prior, starting at 9 a.m.
Morton dentist Brad Larsen said he will likely be able to see about 30 patients, which is the
same number of people he was able to treat last year during the free dental day.
Larsen said he expects the appointment slots to fill up within 20 minutes.
“We just don’t have the ca-pacity to meet everyone’s needs,” Larsen said.
People can get a cleaning, a filling or a tooth extraction, said Linda Tomasheck, special proj-ects director for Valley View Health Center. The dental care is free to everyone.
This is the second free dental day in Morton, Larsen said. He previously hosted free dental days in Kelso, where he worked in private practice prior to mov-ing to Morton.
documents. Redmill left the bank and drove away in a gold PT Cruiser after receiving mon-ey. No weapon was displayed at the time of the robbery and none of the employees were injured.
Shortly after employees at the bank reported the robbery at about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, po-
lice located a vehicle matching the description provided by wit-nesses traveling southbound on Interstate 5, according to court documents.
When police contacted Red-mill after pulling the PT Cruiser over, he had $775 in cash in his pocket, $270 in cash on the floor of the car and a note demanding cash.

REUNION: Ed Adams Reminisced With His Sixth Grade Class of 1950 Wednesday
By Kyle Spurr
The last time former teacher Ed Adams was in his Cascade Elementary School classroom in Chehalis, he was leading his sixth-grade class of 1950 through Atom bomb attack drills.
More than 50 years later, Ad-ams, 89, returned to the same classroom in Cascade Elemen-tary School on Wednesday af-ternoon to share old stories with some of the students from that sixth-grade class.
“He saw something in me no-body else saw,” Chehalis resident Ken Hotsko said. “He’s my hero and my mentor.”
Hotsko, who was in Adams’ sixth grade class in 1950, orga-nizes reunions each year with his high school class of 1957, which has some people who re-member Adams as a teacher.
Hotsko invited Adams, who lives in Port Townsend, back down to Chehalis for the day to meet up with five of his former students who still live in the region.
The sixth grade class from 1950 was the first teaching job Adams had after serving in the Navy. Adams went on to teach for two years at the middle school in Chehalis and then moved to California, where he taught for more than 20 years.
“It was a class that was coop-erative and a class that got along together,” Adams said. “I always remembered the students.”
Harry Fay, who now lives in the Seattle area, said he remem-bers Adams selecting him to be the pitcher for the class baseball team when they played a game against the rival class across the hall. Fay, who spent most of his childhood playing piano and not many sports, said Adams includ-
ing him in the game as the pitch-er was the first time in his child-hood he was accepted in athletics.
“In my psyche, that was un-forgettable,” Fay said.
Burt Lambert, who also came down from the Seattle area for the reunion, said he joined the Navy as a young man based on Adams’ encourage-ment and insight.
The classroom where Adams taught the sixth-grade class is now the elementary school’s li-brary. The classroom no longer has the same desks or the piano in the corner.
Despite the change to the classroom, Adams said being back where his teaching career
started brought back fond mem-ories.
“It’s been a real pleasure com-ing back and seeing all these people again,” Adams said.

UNIVERSITY PLACE — W.F. West golf coach Bruce Thompson had texted his team during a practice round prior to the State 2A Boys Golf Tournament at Chambers Bay Golf Course, making sure his Bearcats read where their shots went on the uneven fairways. The response text from senior and District 4 champion Brady Calkins? "Coach. I hit ball far." That proved true for Calkins, who swung his way to second place in the State 2A ranks Ephrata's Aaron Whalen. Calkins had a string of birdies in his Day 1 round on Tuesday and shot a 70 that pushed him to a 1-stroke lead over Wahlen after 18 holes. Whalen, though, made
some impressive putts on Tuesday to notch a 69 and win the individual state title by 5
strokes over Calkins, 140-145. "Brady plays real aggressive-ly and he'll put himself in some
bad positions and he usually figured out how to get himself out of it," Thompson said. "He had a lot of puts today that just barely missed. That was the difference in the tournament. Aaron just drained one after another today and Brady just barely missed." Calkins was playing in the first of two state tournaments this week. He's the ace pitcher for the Bearcat baseball team, which plays in the state's fi-nal four in Yakima on Friday. On Wednesday, though, he wrapped up an impressive prep golf career that saw him place at state all four years and win two district titles. He placed fifth as a junior. W.F. West's team finished second just behind district foe Hockinson, 119-88, for the state team championship. W.F.

COMMENTARY: Editor’s Notes
Where to See History
By Aaron VanTuyl
Memorial Day weekend is a blessing and a curse. The curse
comes in scattering a handful of reporters and photographers across Yakima, Selah and El-lensburg for state baseball and softball championships — as well as keeping up with results and info from state track meets in Mt. Tahoma and Cheney and the state tennis tourna-ment in Seattle (although, once again, Lewis County will sadly have no representation in the state polo championships on Mercer Is-land). Round-ing everything up in a timely fashion for Saturday's edition is always a bit nerve-racking. That pales in comparison to the payoff of bouncing between games on Friday and Satur-day, enjoying a change in the weather, eating at Pita Pit, stay-ing a hotel and pretending I'm on an important business trip ("WHAT DO YOU MEAN MY SUITE DOESN'T HAVE A FAX MACHINE?") and the potential to cover a state championship game. Here, then, are your best bets for watching history in the mak-ing on Saturday. 1. State 2B baseball champi-onship game; 1 p.m. at Rotary Field, Ellensburg. Adna and Mossyrock play in the semi-finals on Friday (also 1 p.m.), meaning someone from Lewis County's playing for the big tro-phy on Saturday against either DeSales or Liberty Bell (astute fans will recall that DeSales has missed the final four once since 1991 and has won 16 state titles in that span). The Vikings, led by big right-handed flamethrow-er and left-handed slugger John Pomeroy, lost 13-7 to DeSales in last year's semifinals; Adna, which lost 3-2 to Mossyrock in last year's regional champion-ship and went an unremarkable 7-7 in Central 2B League action, is now winning games on its "Be About It" bravado. 2. State 2B softball champi-onship game; 4 p.m. at Gateway Sports Complex, Yakima. This tournament has, in the 11 years it's been held, become a game of King of the Hill with the rest of the state trying to topple the Central 2B League. It's only hap-pened once (in 2007, when Con-crete beat Mossyrock, 1-0). This year's hot team is Toutle Lake, with an athletic defense, solid

OLYMPIA – Clam dig-gers will get one more chance to dig razor clams this season during a three-day opening at Twin Harbors, running Friday through Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. The morning dig scheduled May 24-26 got the green light from the Washing-ton Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) after marine toxin tests showed the clams at Twin Harbors are safe to eat. All other ocean beaches will remain closed to clam digging, and dig-ging at Twin Harbors must end each day at noon.
“This last dig caps off a great season,” said Dan Ayres, WDFW coastal shellfish man-ager. “Since last October, dig-gers have harvested more than five million razor clams, making this season the most productive in over 20 years.”
Ayres said annual har-vest quotas have been met at all razor-clam beaches except Twin Harbors, which started the season with an exception-ally large population of razor clams. WDFW also adopted a new method to set catch levels at Twin Harbors and Long Beach, which also boosted the allow-able harvest at both beaches this season, he said.
Harvest limits aside, Ayres said WDFW routinely closes the razor clam fishery by the end of May to give the clams a chance to spawn. The next sea-son will begin in fall, when the older clams have recovered from spawning and a new generation begins to grow beneath the sand.
Low morning tides during the upcoming openings at Twin Harbors are as follows:
May 24, Friday, 6:34 a.m., -1.7 ft.
May 25, Saturday, 7:21 a.m., -2.2 ft.
May 26, Sunday, 8:09 a.m., -2.4 ft.
Clam diggers are limited to 15 razor clams per day, and are required to keep the first 15 clams they dig. Each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container. To participate, dig-gers age 15 or older must have an applicable 2013-14 fishing li-cense to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses are available online (https://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov/), by phone (1-866-320-9933) and from license dealers around the state. Brock Hoenes, a WDFW wildlife biologist, cau-tions clam diggers and other beachgoers to avoid disturbing western snowy plovers, which nest on the state’s coastal beach-es from April through August. The small white birds are listed under the federal Endangered Species Act as threatened and by the state as endangered.
Plovers and their eggs are ex-tremely vulnerable at this time of year because the birds nest in the dry sand, Hoenes said.
Hoenes also asks that dig-gers avoid signed upland beach areas at Twin Harbors, which are closed to protect the nesting birds. The closed areas are lo-cated from just south of Midway Beach Road to the first beach-access trail at Grayland Beach State Park.
Spring Chinook, Steelhead Fishing To Reopen On Lower
Columbia River
By the WDFW
OLYMPIA – The sport fish-ery for hatchery spring chinook salmon and hatchery steelhead will reopen Saturday (May 25) on the lower Columbia River under an agreement reached today by fishery managers from Washington and Oregon.
The fishery is scheduled to run through June 15 from the Rocky Point/Tongue Point line near the mouth of the river to the deadline below Bonneville Dam. For boat anglers, the up-river boundary is Beacon Rock.
Anglers may retain one adult hatchery chinook salmon as part of their daily limit. Barb-less hooks are required. All chi-nook salmon and steelhead not marked with a clipped adipose fin must be released. Sockeye salmon must also be released.
“We know a lot of anglers have been waiting for this op-portunity,” said Ron Roler, Co-lumbia River policy coordinator for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). “Now that we have a better idea of this year’s run size, more spring chinook have become available for harvest.”
Fishery managers closed the fishery April 13, after anglers had taken 3,539 upriver chi-nook. Although the size of the run was later reduced to 107,500 fish, Roler said 1,357 upriver chinook are still available for the recreational fishery.
Governor Signs Wolf Management Legislation
By the WDFW
OLYMPIA - Gov. Jay Inslee today signed legislation that will provide state wildlife manag-ers more resources to prevent wolf-livestock conflict and ex-pand criteria for compensation to livestock owners for wolf-related losses. Senate Bill 5193, requested by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and prime-sponsored by Sen. John Smith, R-Colville, was supported by a broad cross-section of interest groups.
“The gray wolf population is recovering quickly in Wash-ington,” said Inslee. “This bill received bipartisan support from legislators across the state because it represents a practical, realistic approach to minimiz-
ing wolf-livestock conflict while recognizing the need for fair compensation to ranchers and farmers.”
WDFW Director Phil An-derson said the department ap-preciates the Governor’s sup-port for the bill and the efforts of both Republican and Demo-cratic legislators to get it passed. “Washington state is committed to wolf recovery, but sustain-able recovery requires that we address the legitimate needs of farmers, ranchers and other resi-dents of the communities that are on the front line of wolf re-covery,” he said. “This bill does that.”
As signed by the Governor, SB 5193:
Increases the state’s person-alized license plate fee by $10, effective Oct. 1, 2013, with the proceeds to support WDFW’s efforts to monitor wolf recov-ery and prevent wolf-livestock conflict in collaboration with farmers, ranchers and local gov-ernments, and to compensate livestock owners. The Depart-ment of Licensing estimates the fee will raise more than $1.5 million during the upcoming two-year budget cycle.
Allows WDFW to compen-sate livestock owners for their losses at the current market val-ue of the animals.
Permits compensation re-gardless of whether livestock owners were raising the animals for commercial purposes.
Revises other elements of state law to make it more con-
sistent with the state’s 2011 Wolf Conservation and Management Plan as adopted by the state Fish and Wildlife Commission.
State wildlife managers esti-mate between 50 and 100 gray wolves are present in the state, and that the wolf population nearly doubled in 2012. As of March, there were 10 confirmed packs and two suspected packs, plus two packs with dens in Ore-gon and British Columbia whose members range into the state. Most of the confirmed packs are found in Okanogan, Ferry, Ste-vens and Pend Oreille counties.
Nate Pamplin, the WDFW wildlife program director, said broad support for SB 5193 sends a clear signal about the impor-tance of collaboration to support long-term wolf recovery while respecting community values. The final version of the bill passed the Senate 43-1 and the House 96-2.
“By supporting key elements of the wolf management plan - monitoring, conflict preven-tion and compensation - this new law furthers wolf recovery and acknowledges the impacts on farmers, ranchers and local communities,” Pamplin said.
Pamplin urged residents to contact the nearest WDFW of-fice for assistance with measures to prevent wolf-livestock con-flict. Also, he said, people can call a WDFW hotline at 1-877-933-9847 or use the website (http://wdfw.wa.gov/conserva-tion/gray_wolf/) to report wolf sightings or suspected attacks.

pitching from Paige Deffen-baugh and a more-than-capable lineup. The bracket is set up, though, to allow for four of the five C2BL teams (including Napavine, Morton-White Pass, Pe Ell and Adna) to make the semifinals on Saturday — and it should surprise no one if that's how it plays out. 3. State 2B track champi-onships; Friday and Saturday at Eastern Washington Uni-versity, Cheney. It'd be hard to blame Alissa Brooks-Johnson and Sami-Jo Robinson, the two key cogs on Pe Ell's three straight state track champion-ships, if they weren't exactly chomping at the bit going into the first day of action on Friday. Brooks-Johnson has won, to date, 10 individual state titles and she's 8 for 8 the last two years. Still, any time she hits the starting blocks in the 300-me-ter hurdles it's worth dropping whatever your doing to watch; she's got the fastest time in the state in the event by 3 seconds and runs it like a Great Dane racing corgis. 4. State 2A softball cham-pionship; Saturday, 2 p.m. at Carlon Park, Selah. There's a lot of new faces in the lineup, but the results aren't much dif-ferent for W.F. West: lots of wins, lots of runs, and coach Mike Keen still isn't giving you one of his cookies so stop asking. The Bearcats put up a title-game record 15 runs last year and destroyed Tumwater in the championship game. Princeton-bound slugger Marissa Reyn-olds is anchoring another potent lineup this season, and the title defense begins with a noon game against Othello on Friday. 5. State 1A/2A baseball championships; Saturday, 4 p.m. (1A) and 7 p.m. (2A) at County Stadium, Yakima. Tenino, in spite of itself, is back in the State 1A semifinals, with the Beavers puffing out their collective chests and acting like playing .500 ball during the regular season was the plan all along. The lineup's full of solid hitters; the defense, at the moment, is good; and the team's issue with giving up late runs seems to have been quelled. The heart of the lineup were key players two years ago, when Tenino slipped into the final four and wound up in the title game, and they know what to expect.
Even if they don't make history, you can count on the Beavers to make baseball entertaining. Meanwhile, W.F. West is back in the final four for the fourth time in five years, albeit without the big-name star power its had in the past. This is a different kind of 22-3 Bearcat team. The defense is solid at every position, with the Johnson brothers Toby (a junior) and Eli-jah (a freshman) at second and third, Lower Columbia College signee Michael Forgione doing what Forgiones do at shortstop, Keylen Steen playing catcher like he's personally offended by baserunners and Dugan Shirer pilfering base hits in center field. Brady Calkins, the golfer, is the ace of the pitching staff, and Tanner Gueller bats cleanup and keeps the atmosphere light by, among other things, taking on all comers in postgame rake-on-nose balancing competitions. They take on Clarkston at 7 p.m. Friday night in the semifinals, and it's hard to bet against a team that, after 25 games, is still having as much fun as the Bearcats are on and off the field.

MIAMI — This was more like it. Ten games in, the playoffs felt like
they started for real for the Heat here Wednesday night. Wel-come back, tension and doubt. Good to see you again, major challenge. We missed you, edge of seat. Miami has itself a series — seriously. Finally. Deliciously. Unquali-fied Milwaukee wasn’t any of that in a first-round Miami sweep.Wounded, de-pleted Chicago really wasn’t in a five-game second round. The Indiana Pacers look like a different story, like a team capable of standing up to the reigning NBA champions. Not beating them, perhaps
— not quite — but standing up to them and making this a tena-cious series, an antidote to the anticlimax of the first two. The NBA’s Eastern Con-ference finals began with a thriller won by Miami 103-102 in overtime on a LeBron James driving layup at the final buzzer Wednesday night. He touched the ball with 2.2 seconds left. “I knew I had time,” LeBron said calmly. Indiana has two effective big men in David West and Roy Hibbert. But Indiana doesn’t have LeBron, who finished with 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 as-sists. Nor does Indy have any-body off the bench like Chris
“Birdman” Andersen, who had 16 points on 7-for-7 shooting. “It just came down to find-ing a way,” coach Erik Spoelstra said. New nickname for LeBron, an alternate to King: The Way. “He has an all-everything role for us,” Spoelstra said. Miami had trailed by six at the half with a 37-point effort that tied a club record for a post-season low. It seems this was the game Miami would lose, if it was to lose a game at all. “The way to beat the Miami Heat is to beat them physically,” TV analyst Charles Barkley raved then. “This was the per-fect half for Indiana.” And this is why they play second halves, Chuck. Miami appeared to rally for a narrow victory until the Pac-ers’ Paul George prayered in a long three-point basket with .7 seconds left to force overtime, sucking the party from the building in an instant. LeBron would soon reignite it — thanks in part to a weird coaching decision by Indiana’s Frank Vogel that did not work. Vogel removed 7-2 center Hibbert from the game in the closing seconds, removing the team’s rim defender. LeBron went to work. He drove to the less-guarded rim for a 101-99 lead with 10.8 seconds left, then his driving layup at the buzzer finished it. You wonder which way Indi-ana will go now.
Will the Pacers be demoral-ized from having let slip a grand chance for a Game 1 upset? Or did this convince them they can stand and play with Miami? This was a different kind of test for the Heat, too, after the ease of the first two rounds. Miami’s victories in the first two rounds had been by an av-erage of 16 points, a parade of walkovers and waltzes. This was closer to the kind of heavyweight bout that slugs its way into the late rounds with both fighters exhausted but still punching. Somebody is going to fall. Somebody is going to raise his glove in triumph. The Bulls won Game 1 in Miami, but that was different. The Heat was rusty coming off a long break. The Pacers, bigger and healthier than the Bulls and a better defensive team, didn’t quite win Game 1 but emerged from it as a bigger threat. Chicago winning the series opener felt like an aberration, like nothing to really worry a Heat fan. Indiana looms as more wor-risome even in defeat. This series, now, feels more like the kind of challenge Mi-ami endured, and overcame, in the playoffs a year ago en route to that championship parade. Last year, the Heat was sur-rounded by defeat and doubt, and overcame both. Wednesday night almost brought a feeling of deja vu. In 2012, the Heat trailed these same Pacers two games to one in the second round, with Game 4 back in Indianapolis. Miami did not lose again. Then the Heat trailed Boston three games to two in the East-ern finals. Miami did not lose again. Then Oklahoma City won Game 1 of the NBA Finals. And Miami did not lose again. The Heat kept rising to the challenge last postseason, rising, rising and rising. It looked for the longest time Wednesday night that Miami would face a similar challenge, another deficit. Chris Bosh was looking for a metaphor for what these play-offs are like. When you’re that tall, I guess you tend to think vertically. “We’re trying to climb that mountain again,” he’d said in the buildup to this latest playoff series. The Heat reached the sum-mit a year ago but the climb was treacherous, buffeted by swirl-ing winds and falling rocks. This year’s climb was smooth. It might as well have been on an escalator. That could still change. It almost did in a heart-stopping Game 1. That mountain almost got steeper fast. The wind seemed to pick up. Rocks started falling. Then came LeBron, the ulti-mate answer. The Way. The final buzzer sounded, but you couldn’t even hear it. The bedlam in the building drowned out the sound.

RENTON, Wash. — Be-fore Pete Carroll can "Win Forever" with the Seahawks he has to worry about win-ning now. And no other offseason move spoke more about the urgency to take advantage of momentum built last season than the trade for receiver Percy Harvin. The Seahawks dealt three draft picks to Minnesota, including their 2013 first-rounder, for Harvin, and then signed him to a six-year, $67 million contract. That in-cludes a scheduled $4.9 mil-lion in 2013, and then no less than $11.2 million in every season from 2014 through 2018. "It's neat to know that you are wanted," Harvin said Monday, after completing his first organized team activity (OTA) with the Seahawks. Harvin hadn't known if that was the case in Minneso-ta, where the Vikings weren't sure whether they wanted to make that kind of investment in him. In Minnesota, the narrative was that he was in-jury-prone, though he missed just 10 games in four seasons, and that he could be moody. "He wears everybody out," one Minnesota colum-nist wrote in February when the debate was raging over whether the Vikings ought to re-sign him. Monday, though, Harvin was the picture of content-ment after his first official practice with the team. "It felt good to finally get out here," he said. "It was great.
I had a blast." And while it's hard to read much from one workout with-out contact or pads, the Se-ahawks saw enough to make them think the trade might be worth it. "His talent level is unbe-lievable, off the charts," said quarterback Russell Wilson.
"He brings an explosive men-tality to the game, which a lot of our guys already have. But to have him is truly tremen-dous. He's a guy that's been one of the best football play-ers in the National Football League for the past several years." Harvin, 24, has aver-aged 1,800 total yards in four seasons and was on pace for 2,400 yards in 2012 — which would have led the NFL — be-fore an ankle injury ended his season. In those nine games, he had 62 catches — 12 more than any Seahawk — for 677 yards. He also had 96 yards rushing and 574 yards on kickoff returns, including a 105-yard touchdown return. The Seahawks plan to use him similarly. He'll likely line up in the slot as his regular spot, but figures to get used outside, as well, and should see his share of handoffs and kickoff returns. "I'll be moving around — pretty much all around," said the 5-foot-11, 184-pound Har-vin. "There'll be a little bit of running back coming up. But right now, we're just trying to get the foundation set, just running the base plays, and we'll see where it goes from there." Harvin, though, is already acquainted with the Seattle
offense, another factor that enticed the Seahawks to ag-gressively pursue him. During his first two years in Minnesota, the offensive coordinator was Darrell Bev-ell, now entering his third year in the same role with the Se-ahawks. "He has jumped right into the system of things," Carroll said of Harvin. "He already knows quite a few of the nu-ances and things. We've ad-justed some things, but he's already begun to take control of that." Carroll wasn't surprised by what he saw physically from Harvin. "Very explosive," Carroll said. "He took the ball and turned it up a couple of times today, and he's just lightning-fast. "You can see why he's such a factor catching it and run-ning it and in the kicking game." For what the Seahawks in-vested in him, he'd better be. SI.com, for one, named the Harvin trade the best
"win now" move of the offsea-son, writing: "Did you see any playmakers available at No. 25 who could give the Seahawks what they're expecting from Harvin this season?" Harvin evades questions about what impact he could have on the team's Super Bowl hopes. "Everybody around here expects us to win and things like that, but we expect it out of ourselves, too," he said.
"With a good team comes a lot of talk." A conversation that Har-vin figures to be in the middle of all season.

Harvin Feels Like a Wanted Man With Seahawks
Sports 4 � The Chronicle, Centralia/Chehalis, Wash., Thursday, May 23, 2013SPORTS

Fort Worth Star-Telegram (MCT)
DALLAS — Now that the Los Angeles Clippers have re-fused to offer coach Vinny Del Negro a new contract, a source said Wednesday that the Dal-las Mavericks believe they have a better chance of acquiring Dwight Howard than acquir-ing Chris Paul.
Howard is the Los Angeles Lakers’ center who will become a free agent on July 1, the day free agency begins across the league.
Paul, a point guard with the Los Angeles Clippers last season who also will be a free agent, likely will have a say-so on which coach the Clippers hire, meaning he’ll probably stay with the Clippers.
“I think Chris Paul, depend-ing on who (the Clippers) hire, is going to stay with the Clip-pers,” the source said. “The Mavericks are really interested in Chris Paul, but I think they want Dwight more. They think they can make them a point guard.”
The source said two point guards who interest the Mav-ericks are Golden State’s Jar-rett Jack and Memphis’ Jerryd Bayless. Both of those players figured prominently in their team’s runs in the current play-offs, and both will become free agents in July.
Meanwhile, the source said that the Mavs were aggressively shopping the No. 13 pick they garnered in Tuesday’s NBA Draft Lottery so they’d be able to create more salary cap space and make a stronger pitch to obtain Howard.
The Lakers are in the driv-er’s seat in that they can offer Howard a five-year, $118 mil-lion contract. The most any other team can offer Howard is a four-year, $87.6 million deal.
Forward Dirk Nowitzki has already said he’ll sign for sig-nificantly less money when he becomes a free agent next sum-mer if it’ll help the Mavs secure Howard, who is generally con-sidered the game’s best center.
Howard has not said what his future basketball plans are other than to mention that the Houston Rockets, Mavs and Lakers are on his wish list.
“They’re trying to go after (Howard) pretty hard,” the source said of the Mavs. “They think they’ve got as good enough of a chance as anybody, but I think Houston is a better fit for him.”
Pistons should consider drafting Indiana’s Zeller,
trading Greg Monroe
By Drew Sharp
Detroit Free Press (MCT)
DETROIT — The Pistons got good news Tuesday night.
They didn’t win the draft lottery. They didn’t even come close. This was a Powerball drawing in which those who didn’t get the exact six ping-pong balls were the happiest. This is a basketball draft in which the premium selections are deserving of a heartworm examination in relation to re-cent predecessors.
The Pistons are better off remaining in the middle of the lottery. They will select eighth. There are no stars in this lottery,
and there might only be a cou-ple of Day 1 starters — Kansas’ Ben McLemore and Indiana’s Victor Oladipo. This is a lot-tery in which adding rotational depth is the primary objective.
“There are no franchise-changers in this draft,” Joe Du-mars said Tuesday night.
Some might argue that there are no “franchise-changers” in the front office, either.
The pressure on Dumars, as president of basketball op-erations, requires no embellish-ment. If the Pistons are still in the lottery next year — when a team would dearly love a top-three selection considering the improved talent depth — there probably will be somebody else calling the shots.
Although it’s unlikely there are any future stars awaiting the Pistons with the No. 8 selec-tion, they should take a serious look at Indiana center Cody Zeller. He could drop into the Pistons’ laps just as Greg Monroe, Brandon Knight and Andre Drummond did in the previous three drafts, when the team selected in generally the same position.
Zeller didn’t work out at last week’s NBA predraft combine in Chicago. But he impressed
in the agility drills, reaffirm-ing what many already saw in his two years with the Hoosiers. Zeller runs the floor very, very well for a big man and has a skill set that lends itself to an NBA playing style that empha-sizes more “freedom of move-ment.”
Zeller’s spotty performance during the season initially dropped his draft value but, as a couple of NBA executives explained to me recently, the overt physicality of the Big Ten doesn’t provide an accurate gauge of potential because spe-cial athleticism gets rewarded more at the next level than in the conference.
And keep this in mind as the draft approaches. Zeller would have a higher upside than Monroe at a much cheaper price. Zeller already has the midrange offensive game Mon-roe still lacks. Pairing Zeller with Drummond would im-prove floor spacing and create potential matchup difficul-ties because Zeller’s midrange shooting ability would force an opposing big away from the basket.
Having two big men on the floor who are uncharacteris-tically athletic for their size would create an interesting op-portunity for the Pistons. That could make Monroe, enter-ing the last year of his rookie contract, expendable and po-tentially a very attractive chip if Dumars seeks significantly upgrading point guard or small forward through a trade.
Forget the bad free-agent signings for a moment. The big-ger criticism of Dumars is the outrageous contract extensions. Rip Hamilton’s monstrosity. Jo-nas Jerebko’s. Rodney Stuckey’s.
Should they invest big mon-ey in Monroe if they think he has reached his ceiling?
There are options available that could make draft night in-teresting for the Pistons, even if it’s doubtful that anybody they could get at No. 8 will leave anybody salivating.

Contra Costa Times
SANTA CLARA, Calif. _ Coach Jim Harbaugh con-firmed that 49ers No. 1 wide receiver Michael Crabtree suffered a torn right Achilles tendon and that Crabtree un-derwent surgery Wednesday morning.
Harbaugh also said that Crabtree is not expected to miss the entire 2013 season, though he declined to give a timetable for Crabtree’s return.
The injury happened Tues-day during a 7-on-7 drill at or-ganized team activities. Crab-tree suffered a complete tear of his Achilles.
“He was coming in motion and just was planted and start-ed a route and felt like some-body kicked him in the Achil-les, which sometimes people say that feels like,” Harbaugh said. “The good news is, he woke up from the surgery and the first thing he asked the doc was how it went.”
When told by the doctor who performed the surgery at Stanford that the surgery went well and that he likely won’t miss the whole season, Crabtree showed the kind of positive approach Harbaugh expected.
“His comment to that was, he’s got no choice but to be back,” Harbaugh said. “Every day now is a healing day, and that starts today.”
Losing Crabtree would be a significant blow to the reign-ing NFC champions and Co-lin Kaepernick, who’s enter-ing his first full season as the starting quarterback.
Crabtree, in his fourth season, posted career-best sta-tistics last year: 85 receptions, 1,105 yards, nine touchdowns.
Crabtree was expected to remain the 49ers’ No. 1 receiv-er and be complemented by veteran Anquan Boldin, who was acquired in a March trade with the Baltimore Ravens.
Now, Kaepernick and Har-baugh said, it’s time for some-one other than Crabtree to as-sert himself.
“We have a lot of talent out here,” Kaepernick said. “It’s just: Who’s going to step up and fill that role?”
The 49ers ‘top backup re-ceivers, Mario Manningham and Kyle Williams, are both coming off late season knee injuries, each player having torn an anterior cruciate liga-ment.
A.J. Jenkins, last season’s first-round draft pick who didn’t produce a single recep-tion, has added muscle this offseason in an attempt to crack the lineup.
Another intriguing re-ceiver is Ricardo Lockette, a 6-foot-2 speedster who is Kae-pernick’s roommate and has worked out all offseason with the blossoming quarterback.
Other options at receiver are Marlon Moore, Joe Hast-ings, Chad Hall and Quinton Patton, a fourth-round draft pick who signed a four-year contract Wednesday.
“We’re excited for the young receivers that we have,” Harbaugh said. “I really feel that somebody is going to emerge there, because they have to. Competition will cre-ate that, and we’ll look for-ward to watching that.”
Randy Moss, who started all three playoff games, is a free agent and wasn’t expected to return, at least before Crab-tree’s status changed.
Harbaugh refused to spec-ulate about re-signing Moss. He said he won’t comment on players not on his roster.

“He has jumped right into the system of things,” Carroll said of Harvin. “He already knows quite a few of the nuanc-es and things. We’ve adjusted some things, but he’s already begun to take control of that.”
Carroll wasn’t surprised by what he saw physically from Harvin.
“Very explosive,” Carroll said. “He took the ball and turned it up a couple of times today, and he’s just lightning-fast.
“You can see why he’s such a factor catching it and running it and in the kicking game.”
For what the Seahawks in-vested in him, he’d better be.
SI.com, for one, named the Harvin trade the best “win now” move of the offseason, writing: “Did you see any play-makers available at No. 25 who could give the Seahawks what they’re expecting from Harvin this season?”
Harvin evades questions about what impact he could have on the team’s Super Bowl hopes.
“Everybody around here expects us to win and things like that, but we expect it out of ourselves, too,” he said. “With a good team comes a lot of talk.”
A conversation that Harvin figures to be in the middle of all season.

Detroit Pistons’ Andre Drummond represents his team during the NBA basketball draft lottery Tuesday in New York.
West's Jared Rasmussen placed tied for 13th with a 162, af-ter shaving his first round 83 down to a 79 on the Wednesday. Teammate Jacob Botten was 25th with a 169 after shooting an 81 and an 88. "After the first round Tues-day night, I was trying to get a hold of Jared on the phone and his dad told me that him and Jacob were out at Riverside Golf Course," Thompson said. "And this was at 7:30 at night. It defi-nitely worked for Jared on the second day." Chambers Bay Golf Course had been sunny and inviting on the first day, but attacked golfers with wet conditions on Wednes-day which only magnified the toughness which no doubt fac-tored into the PGA's decision to hold the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay. "It makes the course a lot cooler, just the atmosphere knowing that people like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy will be walking the same fairways in two years," Calkins said. "The first day the course was nice and hard but the second was really windy, rainy and played slower." Centralia's Tucker Voetberg also made the Day 1 cut and shot a 172 (86-86) to finish 31st. All of the Evergreen 2A Confer-ence players were experiencing their first competitive golf in over seven months when W.F. West finished second to Hock-inson in the district tournament. "It was a pretty good show for our district," Thompson said.
"Aaron Whalen from Ephrata also played a really solid round today. He was lights out." All three of the W.F. West
golfers were seniors. Botten is heading to the University of Washington study aerospace en-gineering, Rasmussen recently signed to play golf at Saint Mar-tin's University and Calkins will be playing at the Community Colleges of Spokane next year. "It was a lot of fun, all of our guys had a good time," Thomp-son said. "Afterwards they even talked about going to Riverside to play some golf. That's the kind of excitement they have for the game."
Hawes Finishes 29th at State 1A Tournament
TACOMA — Rochester junior Deric Hawes finished
tied for 29th at the State 1A Golf Tournament after shoot-ing a second round 87 at the Lake Spanaway Golf Course on Wednesday. Hawes had made the cut by shooting an 81 on day 1. "Today it was cold, windy and there was standing water on the greens," Rochester coach Mike DeBruler said. "All those golfers had to grind it out today." Hawes was the SWW 1A League North MWP and finish second in the District 4 Tourna-ment seven months ago, and at-tacked the long, heavily wooded Lake Spanaway course. "It created quite a few prob-lems for golfers," DeBruler said.
"Deric had a good year, I'm proud
of him. He's got another one coming and I think he learned a lot and he'll take those lessons into next year." Illwaco's Ross Kukula de-fended his 1A state title by shooting a 139. The Runner-up was Blains Ryan Wallen, who had a 147. In the State 2A girls cham-pionships, at The Classic Golf Club in Spanaway, W.F. West's Hannah Cooley shot a 112 and Centralia's Bailey Peters shot a 113 on Day 1, though neither made the cut of 104. Steila-coom's Cherokee Kim won the tournament with a two-day score of 156, edging second-place finisher Kendall Gray of Fife by 6 strokes.

SEATTLE — The Seattle Storm got used to star center Lauren Jackson being absent because of injuries and commit-ments with the Australian na-tional team. Now, they'll have to adjust to playing without Jackson and floor leader Sue Bird. Both will miss the entire sea-son while recovering from major surgeries. Jackson is rehabbing her hamstring, and Bird recently had knee surgery. The rest of the team will have to step up without two stalwarts who led Seattle to two WNBA championships during their ca-reers. Those veterans include Tina Thompson, Tanisha Wright and Camille Little. "I definitely think it's going to take some time," Thompson said.
"The personality of our team is going to be very blue collar. We're going to be a very hard-working team. Defense is definitely going to be a staple and personality of this team." It also provides opportunities for younger players, including Seattle's first-round pick Tianna Hawkins of Maryland and sec-ond-year player Shekinna Strick-len. The Storm open on the road Sunday at Los Angeles against the Sparks and star Candace Parker. They get a week off be-fore hosting No. 1 pick Brittany Griner and Phoenix for their home opener on June 2. The first month of the season will be a crash course in jelling the veterans, free-agent signings and younger players. Seattle's offseason additions included guards Noelle Quinn and Teme-ka Johnson, and forward Nakia Sanford. "The general public sort of sees us being is a non-factor. But I beg to differ," Seattle coach Bri-an Agler said. "I'm excited about this season. There are a lot of things about it that are going to be challenging, but we welcome challenges here." A year ago, the Storm played the majority of the season with-out Jackson, who remained in Australia to prepare for the Lon-don Olympics. She played in just nine games and hasn't played a full season since 2010, when Seattle won its second league title. In her nine games after the Olympics, she averaged a career-low 10.2 points. Jackson underwent ham-string surgery in January and an-nounced a month later she would bypass the WNBA season while she recovered and tried to get healthy for the first time in years. The loss of Jackson was sig-nificant for a team with enough pieces in place to be a contender even without her. But Jackson's loss was amplified when Bird announced in March that she'd have surgery to remove a cyst from her right knee and needed six months to recover. The two All-Stars will be spectators for a franchise that's come to expect nothing less than reaching the postseason. Wright would seem to have the best chance of emerging from the shadow of her two in-jured teammates, having spent her entire career with the Storm and becoming a two-time all-WNBA defensive team selection. "It gives us an opportunity to step out of our comfort zone and challenge ourselves," said Wright, who has never averaged more than 12 points. Little has averaged 10 points in her four previous seasons with Seattle, and Thompson averaged nearly 9.0 points a season ago. But they'll need to improve of-fensively to make up for Bird and Jackson's absence. Seattle's also hopeful about the development of Stricklen, who averaged 8.1 points as a rookie in 2012, the most by any Seattle rookie since Bird in 2002. "The ability to find our iden-tity as quick as possible is going to be very, very important," Agler said.
Storm Look to be Stay Competitive Without Jackson, Bird

Akron Beacon Journal (MCT)
When the Cavaliers’ private jet returned to Cleveland early Wednesday morning carrying the No. 1 pick, Dan Gilbert and crew brought back something even more valuable: options.
By winning the NBA lottery Tuesday night and securing the top overall pick in next month’s draft, the opportunities avail-able to the Cavs now are truly limitless and extend far beyond one pick at the top of a meager draft board.
The endgame in all of this has always been to make the organization as appealing as possible for a stellar free-agent class in 2014 _ headlined, of course, by LeBron James. The Cavs needed to find a way to upgrade the talent on the ros-ter this summer while still preserving enough cap space to take on a max contract next year. That’s no easy task, but falling into the No. 1 pick for the second time in three years
is a great way to do it.The Cavs will most certain-
ly make and take phone calls for the top pick, but there are plenty of teams down on this draft and trying to get out of their draft spots, so how much the Cavs could command for the top pick right now is un-clear.
They will be involved in countless trade rumors over the next month, and the names haven’t really changed: Kev-in Love, LaMarcus Aldridge, Marc Gasol, among others. Ga-sol and the Memphis Grizzlies have advanced to the Western Conference finals, making a trade involving him this sum-mer unlikely. Love’s biggest problem in Minnesota has been removed with the firing of David Kahn, so it’s unlikely the organization would agree to move him now. The Cavs have been trying to pry Aldridge out of Portland for years, but the Trail Blazers have made it clear their No. 10 pick is available
for a legitimate starting center. They obviously want to pair that center alongside Aldridge, not break apart a fairly promis-ing nucleus that also includes unanimous Rookie of the Year choice Damian Lillard.
Aldridge has pouted and been moody at times, accord-ing to people in Portland, but it’s still hard to imagine the Blazers trading away one of the premier power forwards in the league who is under their con-trol for two more years.
Still, General Manager Chris Grant and Blazers GM Neil Olshey agreed to the Mo Williams/Baron Davis trade that ultimately brought Kyrie Irving to Cleveland while Ol-shey was in charge of the Los Angeles Clippers, so there is some history. Olshey, mean-while, remains close friends with Cavs assistant GM David Griffin, so the two sides clearly know each other.
Long before Tuesday’s lot-tery drawing, the Cavs began
kicking the tires on ways to add a third pick to the first round of this draft. Yes, they already have the Nos. 1, 19, 31 and 33 selections, but why stop there? The Cavs could bundle 31 and 33 (the first and third picks of the second round) to move into the late first round or they could trade a player (Anderson Varejao?) for an outright first-round pick.
Remember how the Blazers are looking for a center? Vare-jao fits the criteria, although trading the No. 10 pick in the draft for a guy who has played the equivalent of one season in the past three is awfully risky and unwise. Plenty of picks in this draft will be available, be-ginning with the Blazers’ pick and perhaps the Dallas Maver-icks’ pick at No. 13.
ESPN reported the Maver-icks don’t want their pick be-cause they’re trying to save as much cap space as possible for a daring run at free-agent cen-ter Dwight Howard.

There have been 16 games in the
2000s when a player has hit three
home runs in a losing effort.
Miguel Cabrera of the Tigers
did that Sunday night for the
second time. Can you name
the only other player to go deep
three times in a loss twice since
2000?
Miguel Cabrera, Detroit
Miggy continues to separate himself from the
rest of the league, much like Barry Bonds did
10 years ago. With four hits, including three
home runs, Cabrera raised his major-league
leading batting average to .387. He batted .429
with seven RBIs and seven runs for the week.
Archie Bradley, RHP, Arizona
After five tremendous starts this summer at
Single-A, Bradley has been even better at Dou-
ble-A with a 0.90 ERA in four outings. Double-
A opponents are batting just .169 off Bradley.
He’s given up 12 hits, walked just eight and
struck out 25 in his 20.0 innings. The seventh
overall pick in 2011 will turn 21 in August.
.476 Batting average in May for Marco Scutaro of the Giants. That leads the majors among players with at least 50
plate appearances for the month.
3 Teams still perfect this season when leading after six innings: Texas (23-0), the Yankees (21-0) and Cleveland (19-0).
Coincidence that all three are in first place?
.149 Opponents batting average vs. Matt Harvey of the New York Mets this season, best in the majors.
.369 Opponents batting average vs. Minnesota’s Vance Worley and the Angels’ Joe Blanton this season, worst in the majors.
20 RBIs for Jason Kipnis of Cleveland in May — most in the majors.
13 Home runs allowed by Matt Cain of the San Francisco Giants this season. The total leads the majors and is four more
than Cain gave up in all of 2010, when he logged more than 220 innings.
15 Times since 2010 St. Louis lefthander Jaime Garcia has left a game with a lead, but was stuck with a no-decision. The
total is the highest in the majors over that time.
Miguel Cabrera Athlon Sports
Justin Masterson, Cleveland
The surging Indians have won eight of Mas-
terson’s 10 starts this season, scoring a total
of three runs in the two losses. The Cleveland
ace pitched a complete game shutout over the
Yankees last week, and followed up with
seven shutout innings in a 6-0 win over Seat-
tle. For the week, he threw 16 innings, gave
up seven hits, five walks and struck out 20.
Joey Votto, Cincinnati
Quietly and consistently, the Reds’ first base-
man shows why he is the best hitter in the
National League. He hit .583 last week with a
pair of home runs, five RBIs and seven runs.
He drew five walks to go with his 14 hits over
the six games.
Homer Bailey, Cincinnati
After a complete game win over Miami, Bailey
tossed seven shutout innings at Philadelphia
in the Reds’ 3-2 loss. Over his 16 innings last
week, Bailey allowed 11 hits, a walk and
struck out 13.
• Miguel Cabrera blasted three home runs on
Sunday Night Baseball, and you wouldn’t know
it by watching ESPN highlights, but Texas ac-
tually won the game, not Cabrera. However,
Miggy is having another special season. Cur-
rently he is one home run away from once
again leading the Triple Crown categories. No
player has ever won back-to-back Triple
Crowns. In fact, no player has won two cate-
gories the year after winning it.
• James Shields continues to get saddled
with tough losses for Kansas City. He’s gone
eight innings in his last three starts, given up
a total of five runs (four earned) and is 0-2
during that time. Shields has pitched eight in-
nings or more five times this season, giving
up three runs or less each start. For his ef-
forts, the team has rewarded him with an
0-3 record in those games.
• Tyler Chatwood of the Colorado Rockies has
made three starts this season, with Colorado
victorious in all three. Part of the reason is
Chatwood’s 2.55 ERA. Another factor is that
the Rox have scored a total of 28 runs in the
three games. But Chatwood has been rather
handy with the wood. In four at-bats with run-
ners in scoring position and two outs, he has
produced four hits and four RBIs.
• Robbie Ross of the Texas Rangers won the
eighth game of his career this week. It is the
most wins without a loss of any active pitcher.
Clay Rapada is also 8-0, but is pitching for
Wilkes-Barre, the Yankees’ Triple-A affiliate.
• Going into his start against the Tigers last
Thursday night, Yu Darvish of Texas had not
allowed the first batter of any inning to score
this season. In fact, just 10 of 53 had even
made it the first 90 feet. That changed in the
third inning when Don Kelly of Detroit home-
red off of the Texas righthander. Detroit short-
stop Jhonny Peralta led off the fourth inning
with a homer as well.
1. Rangers Texas survived first blown save and three HRs by Miggy.
2. Cardinals Young pitchers must step up to replaced injured starters.
3. Yankees In first place in tough division despite numerous injuries.
4. Red Sox Would like to have Justin Masterson-Victor Martinez trade back.
5. Reds Johnny Cueto’s return improves an already strong rotation.
6. Pirates Tied for second-best record in NL.
7. Giants Lost four games in which they’ve scored six runs or more.
8. Braves First time all season best lineup on the field together.
9. Nationals Sputtering offense has scored just nine runs in last six losses.
10. Indians Won 17 of 21, but can starting pitching hold up?
11. Rays Injury to David Price could be devastating to surging Rays.
12. Tigers Starting pitchers did not enjoy trip to Texas.
13. DiamondbacksWon nine of 13 to bolt back into first place.
14. Rockies Plated 31 runs while taking three of four from Giants.
15. Orioles Winning road record (14-9), losing at home (9-11).
16. A’s Won three one-run games in sweep over Royals.
17. Phillies Ryan Howard: .050 with runners in scoring position, 2 outs.
18. Padres Won 15 of last 20 when not playing at Tampa Bay.
19. Royals Leadoff hitters are batting just .190 off K.C. pitching.
20. Mariners No. 9 hitters batting an NL-esque .151.
21. Twins Tough tests at Atlanta and Detroit this week.
22. White Sox Offense begins and ends with Alex Rios.
23. Cubs Would Cubs really consider a move from Wrigley?
24. Mets David Wright/Daniel Murphy: .307; rest of team: .209.
25. Blue Jays Batted .303 last week, but team ERA was 5.02.
26. Dodgers Adrian Gonzalez has 22 percent of team’s RBIs.
27. Angels This lack of winning isn’t what Albert Pujols signed up for.
28. Brewers Lineup is too good to be this bad.
29. Marlins Suffered four three-game sweeps this season.
30. Astros Thankfully, Houston and Miami will not meet in 2013.
May 28, 1951
Rising star Willie Mays of the New York Giants ends
an 0-for-12 skid to start his career with his first
home run. It comes off Hall of Famer Warren Spahn
of the Milwaukee Braves.
May 19, 1981
Jim Bibby of the Pirates gives up a leadoff single to
Terry Harper of the Atlanta Braves then retires the
next 27 batters for a 5-0 one-hitter. Bibby, known
as a good-hitting pitcher, also adds two doubles.
May 20, 1985
The Indians-Brewers game at Cleveland Stadium
becomes the first game of the season to be rained
out. This is the first season since 1900 not to have
a game postponed in April due to weather.

Only hard-core baseball junkies are
familiar with these names now, but in a
few years all baseball fans will recog-
nize these stars. Here’s a brief look at
stars of the future who have yet to make
their debuts in the major leagues. This
week, we’ll look at position players be-
hind the pitchers. Next week, we’ll pres-
ent the pitchers and catchers report. No
doubt that first base is the thinnest posi-
tion for future stars, with outfield and
shortstop especially deep.
FIRST BASE
Jonathan Singleton, Houston
Long considered a top prospect in
Philadelphia, Singleton is currently
serving a suspension for a drug viola-
tion. He’s probably better suited for DH.
Keon Barnum, Chicago White Sox
The strong 20-year-old has prodigious
power. The question will be whether he
can develop consistency at the plate.
SECOND BASE
Kolten Wong, St. Louis
Nothing about Wong will wow you ex-
cept that he is a ballplayer. Speed, bat
and glove are all just a tad above aver-
age, but his instincts, will and work
ethic should land him a job in the ma-
jors and keep him there a long time.
Delino DeShields, Jr., Houston
Speed is his greatest asset, and the son
of the former major leaguer has solid
makeup and athleticism. He projects as
a sturdy leadoff hitter and if his defense
doesn’t cut it at second, he’ll make a
solid center fielder.
Jonathan Schoop, Baltimore
Originally a shortstop, Schoop can play
all over the infield. Second base seems
to be where the Orioles need him most.
Nick Franklin, Seattle
Originally a shortstop, Franklin has split
time at both middle infield positions this
season. In 2010, he had 23 homers and
25 steals at Single-A Clinton.
THIRD BASE
Miguel Sano, Minnesota
Sano turned 20 a few weeks ago
and is tearing up the Florida
State League with a .354 average
and 23 extra-base hits including
11 homers in his first 40 games.
SHORTSTOP
Francisco Lindor, Cleveland
A few years ago, Lindor was the
youngest player in the Futures
Game. He’s considered the best
defensive shortstop in the mi-
nors, and is batting .331 at Sin-
gle-A.
Javier Baez, Chicago Cubs
While not as refined at the plate
as Lindor, Baez has more power.
It will be interesting to see who
eventually moves to third base,
Baez or current Chicago short-
stop Starlin Castro.
Xander Bogaerts, Boston
If Jose Iglesias ever blossoms for
Boston, Bogaerts could move to
third, shifting Will Middlebrooks
to first.
Carlos Correa, Houston
His glove is well ahead of his bat, but
his .410 OBP this season at Single-A
isn’t too shabby.
Addison Russell, Oakland
He’s scuffling at .189 this season, but hit
.369 across three levels in 2012.
Hak-Ju Lee, Tampa Bay
In the midst of a breakout season at the
plate for Triple-A Durham, Lee suffered
torn knee ligaments and will miss the re-
mainder of the year.
OUTFIELD
Oscar Taveras, St. Louis
Without question, Taveras is the high-
est-prized prospect not yet called up to
the big leagues. The Cardinals’ expecta-
tion is that he will be a regular in the
Redbirds’ outfield next season.
Wil Myers, Tampa Bay
Outside of Jurickson Profar, Myers has
received more attention than anyone in
the minors this season. Only a matter of
time before he’s helping Evan Longoria
carry the Rays’ offense.
Christian Yelich, Miami
The 21-year-old has 20 extra-base hits,
23 runs and 23 RBIs in his first 26
games at Double-A.
Byron Buxton, Minnesota
Twins fans have been dreaming of an
outfield that includes Buxton and Aaron
Hicks. Buxton is still a few years away,
and Hicks has appeared overmatched so
far this season.
Nick Castellanos, Detroit
Originally a third baseman, he moved to
the outfield this season, which is his
quickest track to Detroit. Castellanos is
a pure hitter with developing power.
Billy Hamilton, Cincinnati
Most fans are familiar with his 155
steals last season. But in his first foray
into Triple-A, he’s struggled at the plate
with a .228 average and .286 OBP.
Bubba Starling, Kansas City
Drafted in 2011, Starling chose the Roy-
als over the opportunity to play quarter-
back at Nebraska. He hasn’t exactly
exploded onto the scene, hitting just
.213 this season at Single-A.
Jorge Soler, Chicago Cubs
The Cubs are excited about the young
outfielder, currently hitting .296 and
slugging .528 at Single-A Daytona.
Yasiel Puig, Los Angeles Dodgers
Signed to a seven-year, $42 million deal
out of Cuba last year, Puig has raw
power and gave the Dodgers a glimpse
during spring training just how good he
can be.
We’ve Got Next
TRIVIA ANSWER:Sammy Sosa
of the Chicago Cubs did it twice
in 2001.
AP Images
Oscar Taveras (left), currently playing at Memphis, is the best hitting prospect on the horizon. Francisco Lindor, a shortstop in the Cleveland organization, is the best defender.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — C.J. Wilson struck out 10 in eight innings, Josh Hamilton had a two-run single and the Los Angeles Angels beat Seattle 7-1 on Wednesday to hand the Mariners their season-worst sixth straight loss.
Wilson (4-3) allowed a run and six hits in his longest out-ing since June 8, 2012, when he also went eight innings in a 7-2 inter-league victory at Colorado. The left-hander won for the first time since May 1 at Oakland after losing his previous three starts, includ-ing back-to-back 3-0 decisions against Chris Sale of the Chi-cago White Sox.
Seattle rookie Brandon Maurer (2-6) made his first ma-jor league start near his home-
town of Newport Beach, and it was a disaster. The right-hander, who played his high school ball a few miles away from Angel Stadium, gave up seven runs and 11 hits in three innings.
He pitched 6 1-3 innings in a 6-0 win against Los Angeles on April 25 at Seattle. But this one was much different.
Less than 24 hours after the Angels cruised to a 12-0 victory for their most lopsided shutout win ever against Seattle, Maurer retired only three of his first 15 batters and trailed 6-0 after 47 pitches.
Los Angeles scored five in the first on Hamilton’s two-run single, Alberto Callaspo’s two-run double and an RBI single by Hank Conger. It could have been worse, but Erick Aybar was thrown out trying to steal second after drawing a leadoff walk.
Mike Trout, coming off his first career cycle, tripled in the second for his sixth consecu-
tive hit and scored on a single by Albert Pujols. Last season’s AL Rookie of the Year and AL MVP runner-up is batting .359 with seven homers and 22 RBIs in his last 21 games since go-ing 1 for 8 in a 19-inning loss at Oakland on April 29.
Aybar made it 7-0 with an RBI single in the third. It would be the last Angels hit until Mark Trumbo’s one-out double in the seventh against Yoervis Medina. The Mariners finally got on the board in the eighth when Bren-dan Ryan scored on a ground-out by Michael Saunders.
Notes: Wednesday was the 10th anniversary of the day Angels owner Arte Moreno as-sumed control of the organiza-tion from the Walt Disney Co. Since then, the club has won five AL West titles under man-ager Mike Scioscia and made the playoffs one other time as a wild card. “Arte definitely has a vision for this organization and a vision for what we can
achieve,” Scioscia said. “As far as ownership goes, you really couldn’t ask for anything more over this last decade than some-body who puts his money where his mouth is. And it’s very reas-suring when that happens from ownership.” ... Mariners 1B-DH Kendrys Morales, whom the Angels traded away last Decem-ber for LHP Jason Vargas, got his 500th career hit in the first inning on a single through the box and finished the day 3 for 4 with a double. ... Trout has seven hits in his last 16 at-bats, but has struck out looking sev-en times during that stretch. ... Angels RHP Jered Weaver (bro-ken bone in his non-pitching arm) took park in an extended spring training game at the team’s Tempe, Ariz., complex. He threw 62 of his 75 pitches for strikes, allowing a run and six hits in 5 2-3 innings with nine strikeouts and no walks.

CHICAGO (AP) — Brian Urlacher wasn’t sure how dom-inant he could be any longer, so he’s calling it a career after 13 seasons with the Chicago Bears.
And what a career it was:
—Eight Pro Bowl seasons;
—Defen-sive Player of the Year in 2005
—A trip to the Super Bowl as 2006 NFC champion.
And now, it’s over. The eight-time Pro Bowler announced his retirement through social media accounts Wednesday.
“After spending a lot of time this spring thinking about my NFL future, I have made a deci-sion to retire,” Urlacher said in a statement. “Although I could continue playing, I’m not sure I would bring a level of perfor-mance or passion that’s up to my standards. When consider-ing this, along with the fact that I could retire after a 13-year career wearing only one jersey for such a storied franchise, my decision became pretty clear.
“I want to thank all of the people in my life that have helped me along the way. I will miss my teammates, my coach-es and the great Bears fans. I’m proud to say that I gave all of you everything I had every time I took the field. I will miss this great game, but I leave it with no regrets.”
Urlacher was the face of the Bears, and he ranks among the best middle linebackers to suit up for a franchise with an im-pressive list that includes Hall of Famers Bill George, Dick Butkus and Mike Singletary.
In March, Urlacher and the Bears were unable to reach a contract agreement and he be-came a free agent.
“In the pantheon of Bears, Brian has earned his place alongside Halas, Grange, Na-gurski, Ditka, Payton — and yes, Bill George, Butkus and Singletary,” Bears chairman George McCaskey said. “We congratulate Brian on a bril-liant career and he will contin-ue to be a welcomed member of the Bears Family in retirement.”
Added receiver Earl Ben-nett on Twitter: “Great player... Great teammate... Awesome person!!!!”
Former Bears linebacker Hunter Hillenmeyer posted on Twitter: “(at)BUrlacher54 was the most coachable superstar, best locker room leader I ever played with. Proud to call him a teammate for 8 seasons.”
And defensive end Israel Idonije, a free agent, wrote, “It was an honor & privilege to work and learn from (at)BUr-lacher54 over the past 10 years. (hash)ThanksBruh.”
Urlacher started 180 games from 2000-2012, and made a team-record 1,779 tackles. He has 41 1/2, 22 interceptions, 16 fumble recoveries and 11
forced fumbles.Last year, he was slowed
by a knee problem and then missed the final four games with a hamstring injury.
Urlacher had posted pic-tures on Twitter indicating he was working his way back into shape before the split with the Bears. But when they an-nounced he would not be back, it was hardly a surprise.
Urlacher told the team’s flagship radio station at the time that he was not shocked and the offer he received was
“more like an ultimatum” in which they were telling him,
“Sign this contract or we are go-ing to move on.”
The split with Urlacher was just one of many moves in a busy offseason for the Bears.
They fired coach Lovie Smith after a second straight late collapse left them out of the playoffs for the fifth time in six years, even though they did finish with 10 wins.
They replaced him with the offensive-minded Marc Trest-man, hoping he could get the most out of quarterback Jay Cutler, and revamped their of-fensive line.
On defense, the only start-ing linebacker returning is Lance Briggs. Veteran free agent acquisition D.J. Williams and second-round draft pick Jon Bostic are expected to com-pete for the middle linebacker job with Urlacher gone.

Bears LB Urlacher Announces his Retirement

KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) — An 80-year-old Japanese extreme skier who climbed Mount Everest five years ago, but just missed becoming the oldest man to reach the sum-mit, is back on the mountain to make another attempt at the title.
Unfortunately for Yuichiro Miura, the 81-year-old Nep-alese man who nabbed the record just before he could in 2008 is fast on his heels.
Miura on Wednesday was already in the “death zone,” the steep, icy, oxygen-deficient area close to the 8,850-meter (29,035-foot) summit. His rival, Min Bahadur Sherchan, from Nepal, was at the base camp preparing for his own attempt on the summit next week.
On his expedition’s website, Miura explained his attempt to scale Everest at such an ad-vanced age: “It is to challenge (my) own ultimate limit. It is to honor the great Mother Na-ture.”
He said a successful climb would raise the bar for what is possible.
“And if the limit of age 80 is at the summit of Mt. Everest, the highest place on earth, one can never be happier,” he said.
Miura reached the South Col, the jumping-off point for most final ascents, on Tues-day, according to his website, which also posted pictures of him eating hand-rolled sushi inside a tent.
“Miura is reported to be in good health and he and his team are aiming to reach the summit on Thursday morn-ing,” said Gyanendra Shrestha, a Nepalese mountaineering official at the base camp.
If Miura makes it to the top, he would capture the record. But it would only last a few days if Sherchan is able to fol-low him.
Miura’s daughter, Emili Miura, said he “doesn’t really care” about the rivalry. “He’s doing it for his own challenge,” she said.
The situation was not too different five years ago, when, at the age of 75, Miura sought to recapture the title of oldest man to summit the moun-tain. He had set the record in 2003 at age 70, but it was later broken twice by slightly older Japanese climbers.
He reached the summit on May 26, 2008, at the age of 75 years and 227 days, according to Guinness World Records. But the record eluded him be-cause Sherchan had scaled the summit the day before, at the age of 76 years and 340 days.
Sherchan, a former Gur-kha soldier in the British army, first began mountaineering in 1960 when he climbed Mount Dhaulagiri, the 8,167-meter (26,790-foot) high peak in Ne-pal, according to his grandson, Manoj Guachan. Always an adventurer, and unbowed by age, he walked the length of Nepal in 2003.
Sherchan and his team said Wednesday that they were prepared for their new climb, despite digestive problems he suffered several days ago.
“Our team leader has just arrived back at base camp and we are holding a team meeting on when exactly I will head up to the summit,” Sherchan, who uses a hearing aid, said by telephone from the base camp.
“I am fine and in good health. I am ready to take up the chal-lenge. Our plan is to reach the summit within one week.”
It takes three to four days for climbers to reach Camp 4 on South Col from base camp, and another day to reach the summit.
There are only a few win-dows of good weather during the climbing season in May for people to attempt the summit. That could favor Miura.

LOCAL EXPERTS OFFER TIPS FOR ADDING COLOR AND INTRIGUEBy Carrina Stanton
For The Chronicle
When the dreary days of winter are over, many home gardeners look for ways to add color to their spring and summer gardens.
But it's not just a great time to add seasonal color, said Eric Olmstead, owner of Plants Plus nursery in Chehalis, gardeners can also think about adding perennials that can add interest all year round.
“Next to fall, this is one of the best times to plant,” Olmstead said. “Anything that is in color or bloom right now should stay in bloom when you plant it.”
Olmstead said warmer temperatures in both the evenings and daytime make early spring a great planting season. Warmer evenings mean most plants can safely be outside greenhouses without assistance. Warmer days means those potted plants at the nursery are going to enjoy being planted in your soil rather than growing inside the black plastic containers that can get overly hot in the sunlight.
And if you're looking for plants that add color and interest, Olmstead said some of his favorite recommendations are new takes on old standbys. He said he loves hostas, peonies, hydrangeas, ros-es and heathers but if you think those suggestions are boring, check out some of the newer colors these plants come in.
Lynn Green, who owns Pioneer West Garden & Pet Center in Centralia with her husband, Jim, said she also recommends old standbys for color in the landscape. Green said she loves red gerani-ums for their ease of growing and their brilliant red blooms and also enjoys the limelight hydran-gea for its full, white blooms. She's more recently been impressed with some of the newer peony varieties, which include some very dark, almost pinstriped colors of burgundy and red.
Jim Green said his choice for adding color is nandina, commonly referred to as heavenly bam-boo, a flowering evergreen shrub that has light green foliage that is lime green as new growth but becomes brilliantly colored in the fall. Heavenly bamboo's flowers are white and cluster-like with berries that attract birds. Green said for the same reason, he likes to recommend blueberry plants for flower beds, because they offer beautiful white flowers this time of year, striking blue fruit in the height of summer, and wonderful fall color.
“I'm a non-traditionalist,” he said.

Jeff Parks, who owns Park Place Gardens Nursery in Onalaska with his wife, Judy, said a great shrub for add-ing color is the Early Korean Lilac, which has dark bluish-green leaves and blooms arriv-ing in early May that are much more pink than the traditional blueish-purple lilac most people grow. Parks said the leaves also offer an added splash of color in the fall when they turn reddish.
“They’re just outstanding, beautiful,” Parks said. “And they do well here.”
Another blooming shrub Parks is particularly fond of is the often overlooked privet, which offers shiny, dark green leaves and small white flow-ers this time of year. But if it’s stunning color you’re looking for, Parks said the hardy native Rugosa Rose and Woods’ Rose
provide beautiful blooms with-out being as fussy as traditional roses. Rugosa is a great choice because it can be grown as a hedge and resists most diseases and pests. Woods’ Rose is an understory plant that can help stop erosion and grows in most conditions.
“If you are into harvesting the hips, this is a great source of vitamin C and can be used in flavoring teas, jellies, fruit-cakes and puddings,” Parks said.
“Birdwatchers will love (Woods’ Rose) as it is a great attraction to birds.”
For more dramatic color Lar-ry Lael, who owns Lael’s Moon Garden Nursery in Rochester with his wife, Bethany, recom-mends the flowering plant Ac-taea, commonly called bugbane, for its striking black lacy foliage and tall, attractive flowers on wiry stems.
“And it smells like incense to
me,” Lael said.Lael, too, suggested a variety
of newer peony varieties such as festiva maxima, which offers a fragrant white double flower with red flecks. Hostas are in their full splendor by June and while their blossoms are not much to talk about, Lael said he feels they offer really excel-lent color to a garden through the variety of colors their large leaves come in.
A striking addition to your color wheel could be crocosmia lucifer, which offers upright dark green stems with showy, unusually shaped bright red blooms. Lael said he also likes Nelly Moser clematis, which has a typically star-shaped clematis bloom that is a brilliant duo of pink colors.
“We have a lot of these in our display garden so people can come and see what they look like in the landscape,” Lael said.

Next time you walk into a Starbucks store, stop and listen: You might hear Hoquiam native Ericka Corban on the store’s playlist.
The 27-year-old mom of two has three studio al-bums and frequently plays around the Harbor. She’s looking forward to her first show in San Diego and a music showcase at Melrose Market Studios in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. But it was her regular gig playing weekends in Seabrook at Mill 109 restaurant where a Starbucks vice-president heard her.
“He really liked the music and said he was going to get me licensed,” Corban said. “It’s actually been really good exposure, I’ve been getting calls from all over the country. It’s so bizarre.”
“She is a very talented musician. We’ve recognized that for a long time and have always thought we’d be able to say we knew her when. It’s only a matter of time until her talent is appreciated,” said Mill 109 General Manager Rob Paylor.
He was there the night the executive first heard Corban play, and said it’s the first time a connection like that has been made at the restaurant.
“We can’t believe that. We’re so proud of her,” Pay-lor said. “She’s a real good fit for the Mill, and really plays each crowd differently and reads each crowd as to what they’d like to hear out of the musician.”
For Corban, the best part of a wider audience has been emails from listeners about how her music af-fected them.
“One lady specifically said, ‘Thank you so much for this, it turned my whole bad week around.’ That’s why we do it, to reach those few who need to hear it,” Corban said.
In December, the contract with Starbucks was finalized and some of her songs were added to the company’s global playl-ist. She’s heard reports that one of her songs, “Lovin’ You” from her newest album, Daydream, has been heard as far away as a Florida college campus.
“I can’t believe it’s all the way over there,” she said. “I haven’t been there yet but my music has.”
The eclectic Christian-folk artist produced Day-dream with the help of a successful Kickstarter fun-draising campaign. Kickstarter is an online funding platform for creative projects where anyone — film-makers, artists, musicians, teachers — can make a proposal, set a fundraising goal, and ask the public for private donations.
Corban, a 2003 Elma High School grad, studied vocal performance at Grays Harbor College. She plays with her husband of five years, Mattaniah, who plays guitar, piano, ukulele and percussion instru-ments. They’re sometimes joined on stage by friend Jeff Perin on the cello or bass.
She shies away from the idea of goals for her mu-
sic, preferring instead to talk about her “purpose.”“I want my music to help people and encourage
people and inspire people,” Corban said. “I think it can be really moving and inspirational for a person to identify with.”
That Starbucks is providing a larger opportunity for her to work in the music business helps fulfill her purpose.
“They’re such a huge and great company,” she said. “The music is out there and reaching people, and that’s such a gift, it’s a huge gift.”
Whether her commercial partnership will lead to big la-bels is still a question, but one Corban isn’t in a rush to answer. She and her husband represent themselves through a venture called Clothespin Records, and still work day jobs as caregivers.
“I want to keep it indie. If somebody came to me with a really great deal I wouldn’t turn it away, but it’s not my goal. … I feel like God is in control and when the right doors are supposed to be open, they’ll be opened.”
Paylor is more certain of Corban’s future. Of all the artists who play at Mill 109, he said Corban gets the most response from patrons, the most inquiries on how to find her music and has even been specifi-cally mentioned in several positive reviews for the restaurant.
“She’ll move out of our price range pretty quick here I think,” he said.
For more information about Corban, including a complete calendar and links to download her music, visit erickacorban.com.

Wrapping foods into tidy packets for the grill is a contradiction, right? Wisps of smoke and flicks of flame are supposed to be what makes grilling so flavorful and special.
These days, though, the grill is increasingly serving as an outdoor stove where a far wider range of fare than steaks, burg-ers and hot dogs is being pre-pared. Some food items are too delicate to withstand the searing heat of a grill while others are too small to sit easily on the rack without special grilling acces-sories. Wrapping them in alu-minum foil, thin sheets of cedar
“paper” or even husks and leaves offers protection while concen-trating flavors and fragrance.
And, just right for Memorial Day partying, cooking food in packages on the grill means no-mess entertaining. Prepare the food ahead of time, wrap, cook, toss the empty wrappings when done.
“The real reason for wrap-ping things up is, it is a great way to get flavors to infuse into the food you’re cooking,” says Jen-nifer Chandler, the Memphis, Tenn.-based chef and author of
“Simply Grilling: 105 Recipes for Quick and Casual Grilling” (Thomas Nelson, $24.99). Take sliced lemons, onions and fresh herbs. Throw these aromatics on the grill and they risk fall-ing through the grate, she says, while wrapping them with the meat or fish means cooking to-gether and an exchange of fla-vors.
Even the wrap itself can lend a taste element, according to Judith Fertig of Overland Park, Kan., co-author of “The Gar-dener & the Grill: The Bounty of the Garden Meets the Sizzle of the Grill.”
“A corn husk can give a slight sweetness. Wrap food in a ba-nana leaf and it will make the food taste slightly like black olives,” she says. Even a Swiss chard or kale leaf, brushed with a little olive oil, can be pressed into service.
Whatever you choose, wrap neatly — pretend you’re wrap-ping a package, Chandler says, so edges stay closed — and you are ready to grill.
Wrapping Do’s and Don’ts:Don’t overstuff. Sort foods by
shape and similar cooking times otherwise “it’s almost impos-sible to get everything cooked properly. Less is more,” says Ja-mie Purviance, author of “We-ber’s Smoke: A Guide to Smoke Cooking for Everyone and Any Grill” (Oxmoor, $21.95).
Husks and skins. Corn husks, fresh or dried (soak before grill-ing) are just one option. Purvi-ance recommends cooking on-ions in their skins, nestling the
bulbs among the coals. If using husks or a banana leaf, Fertig recommends standing close by with a spray bottle of water to douse any flare-ups.
Alternative soaks. Corn husks, leaves and wood papers should all be soaked pre-grilling to reduce the chance of burning. While water works, Chandler recommends experimenting with other liquids, including juice and wine, to infuse the food with another layer of flavor.

CEDAR-WRAPPED MAHI-MAHI WITH MANGO, RED PEPPERS
Prep: 15 minutesMarinate: 10 minutesCook: 8 minutesServings: 4Note: This recipe is adapted from
“Simply Grilling” by Jennifer Chan-dler. It calls for cedar grilling papers (available at Amazon, among other sources), which must be soaked in liquid for at least 10 minutes before using. Aluminum foil can be subbed but won’t impart the smoky flavor of cedar.
Ingredients:
¼ cup orange juice3 tablespoons fresh lime juice2 tablespoons olive oil
4 mahi-mahi fillets, 4 to 6 ounces each, cut in 1-inch-thick slices4 cedar papers½ teaspoon saltFreshly ground pepper2 mangoes, pitted, peeled, thinly sliced¼ cup each, thinly sliced: red bell peppers, red onions1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
1. Whisk juices and oil in a
bowl until combined. Place fish in a single layer in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fish. Marinate, 10 minutes.
2. Place the cedar papers on a work surface. Remove the fish from the marinade; shake off the excess, discarding marinade. Divide the fish among the cedar papers, placing them parallel to the grain. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with man-goes, peppers, onions and jala-peno. Fold the edges of each pa-
per over the fish; tie with cotton string.
3. Lightly brush grill grates with oil. Place the packets di-rectly on the grill over medium-high heat. Close the lid; cook, turning once, until medium, 4-5 minutes per side. To serve, place packets on plates, allowing guests to unwrap.

Grilling with Ease:
Is your wooden gate sagging or sticking? The repair is usually pretty easy. First check the hinges. Loose screws should be tightened or replaced with longer ones that are a slightly larger diameter. Wooden gates usually have a brace that rises diagonally from the top on the latch side to the bottom on the hinge side. Once the brace shrinks it allows the gate to sag. Once sagging occurs we suggest using a cable brace with a turnbuckle. Such kits sell for about $10 to $15 and can be installed in about a half an hour. Keep in mind that, even though a cable brace is installed diagonally, it is placed in the opposite direction of an existing wood brace. A cable brace is connected at the top on the
hinged side and on the bottom at the hardware side.
If you have an asphalt driveway where bare stones show, now’s the time to reseal it. You can hire the job out very inexpensively, or do it yourself with sealer that costs $25 to $40 for a bucket that covers 300- to 350-square feet. The process is reasonably easy. First, pressure-wash the surface to get it as clean as possible. Purchase enough sealer to do at least two coats. Use a long squeegee on a broom handle to spread the sealer evenly over the pavement. When the job is done the squeegee will be too. By the way,
this project should be done in shoes and jeans that are already goners.
Is your wood deck or patio furniture looking a bit shabby? It may be deck cleaning/sealing time. Follow these steps and it will be easy. First, scrub the deck with soap and water and a bristle brush on a broomstick. The detergent will loosen the surface dirt. Next, use a pressure washer to rinse away the soap. Finally, wait a day for the deck to dry and then add a coat of sealer. Use a roller to apply the sealer or sealer/stain and wipe off the excess with a clean dry rag.
This is a good time to have your air conditioner serviced. Once it gets hot a service call is going to cost you a fortune. If the system breaks down mid-summer forget about a same-day service call. Be sure to install a new filter. If you have allergies be sure to look for a corrugated filter. If you can pour salt through a filter don’t buy it for your home – allergies
or not.Spring is a great time to

Spring Cleaning — Outdoors
CLEANING PAINTBRUSHES Next time you paint, don’t throw your solvents away. Using them only once is a waste. After cleaning paintbrushes and tools with paint thinner or mineral spirits, most people get rid of the solvent. That’s unnecessary, wasteful and hazardous. Recycling the solvents is the way to go. It saves money, time and our planet to some extent, too. Pour the solvent into a jar after soaking brushes clean and let it sit for a day or two. The paint will settle into a sludge at the bottom; the remaining thinner on top will be clear. Carefully pour it off into a second jar, seal and save for use another time or two. Save the sludge jar also — adding to it until it’s full. Then take it to a hazardous waste disposal site. Never pour paint or solvents down the drain.

Keep Drinking; Death Will Follow
In 1886, the Lewis County Bee commented on what
was happening at the Cottage Saloon in Centralia.
“Sunday and Monday were busy days at the Cottage Sa-loon judging from the noise and bloody noses,” the newspaper reported. “Go on gentlemen your time is short and you are doing all you can to bury your-selves.”
Less Vagrant Dogs
In May 1911, the number of vagrant dogs in Centralia
was lessened by eight.“Eight vagrant dogs went
their way into happy dog land yesterday when Dogcatcher Jack Donnolly put them to a humane end with chloroform after keep-ing the animals for forty-eight hours,” The Centralia Weekly Chronicle wrote. “Every effort
was made to find their owners but without avail.
“The crusade against stray dogs proceeds with unabated rigor and new canines are gath-ered in daily.
“Some of the smarter dogs are getting to know Donnolly, and a few of the animals which have been liberated by their owners, hike out of his reach when he hovers in sight, being probably under the impression that he is after them again.
Some of the dogs invite incarceration by their curios-ity. Attracted by the wails of the captives, a number of animals enjoying liberty proceed to the spot to investigate conditions, and the lamentation inside is chorused with sympathetic yelps outside.
“During this proceeding, Mr. Donnolly sometimes gets a chance to pick up a few dogs right at the gate of the pound.”
$2 Million Jackpot
In 2001, Joan Guenther, 66, Chehalis, won the $2 mil-
lion Lotto jackpot with a ticket she purchased at Fuller’s Market Place on South Market Boule-vard, Chehalis.
“It took me a couple of days to realize I had the winning numbers,” Guenther said. She had purchased Lotto tickets for 19 years before winning the big prize.
Woman Jolted During TV Cleaning
In 2006, Delyn Andersen, 41, Winlock, was given the
name “Sparky” by her husband after she received a jolt while cleaning a TV.
“Earlier in the day, Ander-sen’s mother-in-law had visited and helped shampoo the fam-ily’s carpet,” The Chronicle re-ported. “Andersen said without thinking, she turned on her tele-
vision set and noticed the screen was dirty.
“Retrieving a damp rag from her kitchen and standing on the still-damp carpet. Andersen at-tempted to clean off the screen when a large jolt threw her back-ward.”
“It was the biggest shock I’ve ever felt,” Andersen said. “I’ve walked into electric fences be-fore because we have horses, and this was 20 times worse than that. It just flung me backwards, and I’m laying there thinking, ‘What just happened?’”
Orpheum Presents Fine Shows
In 1909, The Orpheum, on Chehalis Avenue, was tak-
en over by Harrington Wheeler.“In addition to moving pic-
tures that are meritorious, he presents two or three times a week vaudeville changes that are worth going to see,” The Chehalis Bee-Nugget wrote.
“Mr. Wheeler is an enterprising showman, and Chehalis is for-tunate in having him here, as we now have attractions that are worth while.
“A new electric sign was add-ed this week at the front of the house, and the old store front has been removed, adding much to the attractiveness of the place.”
No Pedal Pushers Allowed at Dance
In 1959, at the upcoming teenage dance at the Ar-
mory in Centralia, no pedal pushers, Levis, Capri’s or jeans were allowed. The “Blue Notes,” the Northwest’s leading “Teen Band,” would be playing their latest recording, “I Love An An-gel,” with “Little Bill” singing. Rockin’ Robin Roberts would be a featured soloist during the dance.
Parents were invited to come free of charge.

On May 23, 1991, Forks businesses except city offices and banks close as residents travel en masse to Olympia to take part in a rally protesting critical habitat protections for the northern spotted owl. A sign on the outskirts of town announces “Forks will be closed Thursday to pro-test government stupidity in Olympia” (Dietrich).
Town Departs for State Capital
Almost a third of Forks residents left town early in the morning to make the several-hour trip to the state capital, joining woods work-ers from other Northwest timber towns. The grocery store, the newspaper, and gas stations, among other busi-nesses, all closed for the day. Even the schools suspended classes.
Cutbacks in timber sales from federal lands since the mid-1980s and the spotted owl’s eventual 1990 listing as threatened under the En-dangered Species Act had led to increasing anxiety in
Forks, given the town’s sta-tus as self-proclaimed “Log-ging Capital of the World.” Olympic National Forest em-ployees in the Forks office had just learned that staffing might be reduced by half be-cause the timber harvest had declined by more than 90 percent.
Critical Habitat?The May 23 protest was
specifically linked to a U.S. Fish and Wildlife hearing to review the critical owl areas the agency had recently an-nounced in the Federal Reg-ister. Forks areas proposed as critical included farmland, second-growth forest, and an almost treeless mobile-home park, which left residents scratching their heads, since the owls nest in old growth.
“We’re still in shock at being listed,” one resident told a Seattle Times reporter (Diet-rich).
In January 1992, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service designated 6.9 million acres of federal Northwest forests as “critical owl habitat.” This removed state, tribal, and private lands and reduced the number of acres pro-tected, down from the 11.6
million acres proposed be-fore the contentious public hearings of 1991.
In 2007, Fish and Wildlife sought to reduce the “critical habitat” to 5.3 million acres.

to drop, add 2 tablespoons of rubbing alcohol to 16 ounces of warm water; then add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch for a super-duper cold weather cleaner.
No matter the type of exterior siding you have, after a long winter’s wear, it probably needs a good cleaning. One of the best means of brightening dingy siding is with a pressure washing. If the siding is chalked or streaked, scrub it using a nylon truck brush along with a mild solution of powdered laundry detergent and hot water. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Check for cracks, peeling paint, missing or damaged mortar and caulking.
The caulking that insures a watertight exterior can take a real beating during winter. Spring is a good time to caulk around window trim and door frames, especially if you missed doing it in the fall. Do this after you have washed the exterior siding.
If your driveway or carport looks like an Indy 500 pit stop, a good cleaning is in order. Clean and degrease exterior concrete surfaces with a commercial concrete cleaner-degreaser. Use cat litter to absorb as much of the grease or oil first—by grinding it into the area with the soles of your shoes. Dispose of the oil-tainted cat litter as you would paint, used motor oil or other household toxic substances.
Safety repairs are smart any time of year. Electrical repairs can prevent a potential for a house fire. Consider rerouting hanging electrical wiring outside the house and in the garage. Reroute the wires into locations where the wiring is safely concealed and protected from abrasion, stretching or cuts. While you’re at it make sure that the wiring isn’t frayed, cracked, or otherwise damaged.

DETROIT — It is the kind of tree house that a kid could spend all day and all night inside.
Patrick and Cindy Mifsud’s kids have in fact pulled all-nighters in the cedar and pine play set nestled in their backyard in Dearborn Heights, Mich.
The tree house sits a story above ground in an old-growth tree and is supported by beams. The tree was trimmed to accommodate and support the structure as well.
Custom made a decade ago by the Outdoor Fun Store in Canton, Mich., the 10-by-10 foot tree house has five paned windows, a shingled roof and a nine-foot ceiling. The inside, with a kid-sized bunk bed with waterproof mattresses, is made cozier by a television and a fan both mounted into the walls. A ladder leads up to a landing and stairs lead up to the second landing at the door.
A sliding board provides a swift and fun trip from the first landing to the ground.
“Maybe I wanted this kind of a tree house when I was a kid,” Patrick Mifsud said with a smile. With two older children who have outgrown the playset, it’s now the domain of his 13-year-old son. A custom play set of this intricacy could cost about $25,000, said Dan Wright, owner of the Outdoor Fun Store.
Backyard play equipment is not all slides and swings anymore. Sandboxes are going out of fashion, too, being replaced by spring-free trampolines, ziplines and rock-climbing walls. Modular and custom options are as vast as whatever you can dream up
— from swing sets with crawl tunnels or billy goat bridges to clubhouses, “penthouses” or contraptions that could rival the local county park.
Dave Byrum, owner of Kids Gotta Play in New Hudson, Mich., formerly Rainbow Recreation of Michigan, boasts the largest factory in the nation for backyard playsets.
It offers 100 customizable modular sets — which the company refers to as play systems — made of naturally decay-resistant California redwood, western cedar and coast Douglas fir. They run from about $999 to as high as $45,000 or more. The modular equipment grows with the child — pieces for stronger, older kids, such as monkey bars and chain ladders, can be added over time, Byrum said. The typical Rainbow play system runs between $3,000 and $4,000 and costs about $400 to $600 to install.
Sloped or uneven backyards are accommodated with supports and frames to keep the play system level, Byrum said.
BACKYARD PLAYSET BASICS
AND SAFETY
— Wooden playscapes, once typically made of sharp-edged lumber, have been retooled with rounded edges. Bargain hunters and do-it-yourselfers beware of pressure-treated wood because it contains arsenic. Choose cedar instead.
— Platforms, bridges and ramps need guardrails. Children should not play on wet equipment.
— A home play area should
maintain a shock-absorbing surface, such as mulch or wood chips, at least 6 feet around and about 3 to 4 inches deep for rubber mulch and 6 to 8 inches deep for wood chips. Be sure to use landscaping fabric underneath any mulch to keep out the grass and weeds.
— Wood chips available at landscaping or gardening stores will suffice. Some play system owners opt for recycled rubber that looks like landscaping mulch. It’s offered in a variety of colors.
— Metal swing sets start at about $199 at toy stores or big box merchants. Wooden modular systems can cost $999 and up.

ADVICE: Dear Abby
DEAR ABBY: I was sur-prised to see you equate a con-cerned grandmother’s creative solution to smoking with brib-ery in your Feb. 14 column. The word “bribe” has a nega-tive connota-tion. What the grandmother did was offer an incentive, NOT a bribe, that will benefit her grandchildren in the long run. I think the woman should be congratulated. Now for a disclaimer: When my daughter was 14, I came up with the same idea in the form of a wager. I bet her that if she could resist peer pressure and not become a smoker by the time she was 21, I would buy her the dress of her dreams. To
my delight, she won the bet. By then she was studying to be-come a marine biologist, so in-stead of a dress, the money went toward a wetsuit. At 43, she’s still a nonsmoker and she has now made that same bet with her children. It’s the best money I ever spent. — RETIRED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER DEAR R.C.S.W.: Oh me, oh my, did I get clobbered for my response to that letter. Out of the hundreds of letters and emails received, only ONE per-son agreed with me. The rest were smokin’ mad. Read on: DEAR ABBY: In my many years as a school psychologist, I have counseled hundreds of parents and teachers about deal-ing with behavioral issues in children. I often make the dis-tinction between a “bribe” and a “reward” by describing a bribe
as something you give some-one to do something dishonest, while a reward is given for do-ing something commendable. What she did was reward their good choice in not developing a potentially fatal habit. — OLD-SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST DEAR ABBY: When you give someone money for some-thing that has already been completed, it’s a paycheck and not a bribe. It was pointed out to me that few of us would con-tinue to go to work if we weren’t paid for it, and those grandchil-dren were being paid for “work” that was already completed. It’s an important distinction that may be helpful for parents and other adults to understand. — FORMER SCHOOL PRINCI-PAL DEAR ABBY: I disagree with your answer! What that grandmother did was REWARD
her grandchildren, not bribe them. A lot of pressure is put on teens, and it takes considerable willpower and maturity to avoid some of these temptations. At 16 or 17, it is hard for them to imagine being over 30, and none of them can imagine being 60 or 70 with lung disease. Hooray for grandparents who can help them avoid adopting a life-threatening habit in any way they can! — GRAND-MOTHER IN IOWA DEAR ABBY: I told my son I would give him $1,000 at the age of 21 if he didn’t smoke. It wasn’t bribery. It was a great tool to combat peer pressure. Whenever he was offered a cigarette, he could simply say he had a better offer. Not only did it work, the other kids were envious. — MICHIGAN MOM DEAR ABBY: My pre-teen daughter was devastated when
her maternal grandfather died from the effects of emphysema. In spite of it, she took up smok-ing in her teens. We threatened her, grounded her, took away privileges, even tried guilt trips. Nothing worked. Her choice to smoke was influenced by her peer group. I would have mortgaged our home, sold our possessions and borrowed money from the bank if I thought I could have altered her choice by bribing her. By the way, she has been diagnosed with pre-cancerous cells, but even this hasn’t been enough to cause her to quit. — WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING

The Daily Astorian
When you dine, do you prefer clean and attractive tableware? Does ambiance enhance your enjoyment of your food? Birds feel the same way about their dining habits – the type and cleanliness of your bird feeders directly affects the number and species of birds that will visit your backyard this season.
To attract birds, you need to understand not only what they prefer to eat, but how they like to eat it. For example, while many species prefer seed, some birds like to eat their seed from elevated platforms, others prefer hanging feeders and still others are content to forage on the ground. All birds appreciate a clean feeder to prevent the spread of disease, and none of them like those pesky, seed-stealing squirrels any more than you do.
The bird experts at Cole’s Wild Bird Products offer some guidance for choosing the right feeder styles to attract the
maximum number of feathered friends to your yard:
* Keep it clean. Everyone knows you should
clean your feeders regularly to prevent disease, but many feeders are a pain to disassemble, clean and reassemble. Many people keep feeders less than pristine because of the hassle of cleaning. Look for feeders that make the process easy. All Cole’s tube feeders have a Quick Clean feature that allows you to remove the bottom of the feeder with the push of a button for easy cleaning access — no need to completely disassemble the feeders to clean them.
* Tube feeders are terrific.For versatility and wide
appeal, it’s hard to beat a tube style feeder. These workhorses of the feeder world can handle seeds both large and small
— from sunflowers to petite mixes. Tube feeders make great
all-purpose feeders or excellent starter feeders for people just beginning backyard birding. Most songbirds will happily dine at a tube feeder.
* Some seeds are special.Niger is a favorite seed type
for finches, siskins and several other appealing species, but not all tube feeders can handle this oily seed. If you’ll be serving niger, consider a specialty feeder like the Nifty Niger Feeder. The feeder dispenses the seed through special, tiny holes to limit the amount of waste.
* Cater to the clingy.Some birds, such
as chickadees, titmice, woodpeckers and bluebirds, like to cling to the feeder. For these birds, a mesh feeder can be just what the diner ordered. Mesh feeders satisfy a bird’s desire to cling while also keeping larger birds from hogging the feeder. The Mighty Mesh Feeder is great
for serving Nutberry Suet, Suet Kibbles, Suet Pearls, raw peanuts and any sunflower-based seed blend.
* The beauty of bowl feeders.Bowl feeders are another
versatile style, and are great for serving not only seeds and seed blends, but also dried mealworms, fruit and suet in either kibble or pearl forms. The Bountiful Bowl Feeder comes with an adjustable dome cover that you can raise or lower to prevent larger birds and squirrels from getting to the food – and it also helps protect feed from rain.
* Hummingbird feeders are something to sing about.
Hummingbirds are endlessly fascinating to watch, but you have to be quick to catch a look at them. Your best opportunity is when they’re eating, and a hummingbird feeder can help extend your viewing time. The Hummer High Rise feeder gives
hummers a penthouse-view with elevated perches and keeps ants out of the nectar with a special built-in ant moat.
* Those darn squirrels.As much as you enjoy
watching their antics, you probably don’t want squirrels on your bird feeder. These persistent bandits can wipe out a seed supply in minutes and damage even the best-made birdfeeders. One way to keep squirrels away from all your feeders is to install a Tough Bird Feeder Guard on your existing feeder poles. The simple device uses static pulse to train squirrels not to climb on feeder poles. Use your favorite feeders on your own shepherd staff or pipe-style poles and add the Tough Bird Feeder Guard to keep squirrels away. Only the tube portion of the guard is charged, so the pole and birdfeeder are safe to touch for humans and birds alike.
