And Davie County is again listed as a “Code Red”coun- ty by the N.C.Department of Health and Human Services, meaning there is critical spread of the virus here. In a report released Monday by the Davie County Health Department,348 county resi- dents have the virus,with nine of those receiving treatment in a hospital.

THOMASVILLE -David- son-Davie Community College is the new name for an institu- tion that first opened its doors almost 60 years ago between Lexington and Thomasville. The Davidson County In- dustrial Education Center welcomed students in 1963, and became Davidson County Community College in 1965. The new name became ef- fective Jan.1. “We are changing our name to reflect what has always been true -we are a college that proudly serves Davidson and Davie counties,and we can’t wait to see what the future holds,”said board of trustees chair,Kevin Firquin,in a video released Dec.31. The college’s history dates back to the late 1950s,when communities around the state began developing industrial education centers with state funding.Local leaders,includ- ing Lexington’s Felix Gee and Thomasville’s Doak Finch,ral- lied their communities to raise funds to make it possible. “I remember when my dad was working to establish the institution that would become DCCC,”said Elizabeth Gee, a longtime foundation board member at the college and daughter of the late Felix Gee. “He would be amazed,and so proud,of where we are today. Please See College -Page 5 New county manager ready for challenge By Mike Barnhardt Enterprise Record David Bone knows about community service. His father was a Method- ist minister.His mother was a school teacher. It was that upbringing that led a young David Bone into government work.He be- gan Dec.23 as the new Davie County manager. “There’s a lot of positive things happening in Davie County,”he said.“We’ve got a great team and a great staff. There are development oppor- tunities here.I want to make sure we continue to grow in a responsible way,being respect- ful of our agricultural past.I think I’ve got some experience that will be helpful.” Stints as the town manager of Chadboume,Elizabethtown and Wendell,and the most re- cent nine years as county man- ager for Martin County,Bone says he has seen and learned from growth into more rural areas. Bone,51,graduated from high school in Burlington,and enrolled in the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. But he still wasn’t sure of his career choice,and changed majors several times.He ended up graduating with an English degree. During this time,he stud- ied culinary arts at Alamance Community College. He was working at a restau- rant and attending college when he and his wife had their first child.And while still working full-time,he completed an in- temship with the Chapel Hill city government. “I felt like government was a great way to serve the commu- nity ...have a greater impact on the community and help people on the local level,”he said. Also at the same time,he was earning a graduate degree in public administration from N.C.Central University. Graduation celebrations were put on hold,as he went to Chadboume for a job inter- view,which he got.His wife was seven months pregnant at the time,and both were still working full time. “Our lives changed quite a bit,all at once,”he said. Bone said he enjoyed work- ing in Martin County,but that he and his wife were looking to move closer to family.His wife’s mother grew up in Cool- eemee and recently moved back there.He has family liv- ing in Gaston County. They have three boys,one a high school student,one a stu- dent at UNC and the other at N.C.State. A long-time Boy Scout vol- unteer,the family enjoys camp- ing,especially to visit National Parks and historic sites. “I’m real excited about this opportunity.This county has wonderful opportunities and I’m proud to be here,”Bone said.“The commissioners have a great vision for the communi- ty to keep moving in a positive direction.” New manager David Bone wants to help keep Davie moving in a positive direction.-Photo by Robin Snow 2 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 Editorial Page In The Mail... Fireworks a real danger to animals Couple spent years helping feed the poor And when ye reap the harvest of your land,thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest,neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest:thou shalt leave them unto the poor,and to the stranger:I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 23:22,KJV Diane Salmon lived this verse from the Bible. Diane Salmon taught others how to live this verse from the Bible. Diane Salmon served her Lord,and in so doing, served hundreds -maybe thousands -of Davie resi- dents. Some eight years ago,Diane,upon learning of a simi- lar program in another city,started Deep Roots Com- munity Garden through First United Methodist Church in Mocksville.Her goal was simple.She was doing God’s work,helping to feed those in need with nutri- tional,fresh vegetables and fruits. And in the meantime,she helped some of us who didn’t have space for gardens at their homes.The prem- ise was simple:pay a few dollars for a garden spot,raise whatever you wanted to grow,and vow to give at least some of it away to those less fortunate,or to those who do not have access to fresh produce. It worked.And while I love that first tomato sand- wich of the year as much as anybody,the feeling of see- ing the excitement on someone else’s face when you give them a big,home-grown tomato was much more fulfilling. That’s the way Diane Salmon wanted it. As a member of the Clement Street site for the gar- den,I can say the garden helped me grow as a person. Doing something for the greater good gives one a feel- ing of being an important part of a larger community. To say that Diane Salmon just started Deep Roots Community Garden is misleading.Diane Salmon was Deep Roots Community Garden.While most volun- teers spent a few yours each year doing their part,Diane did a few hours daily. Almost every day during the growing season -I’m not making this up,every day -she would be at the Storehouse for Jesus or Clement Street locations for the garden.She wasn’t there to guide volunteers,although she was always happy to point out a chore that could be done if someone wanted some work. She was there to work.And work she did. For hours on end,Diane,bad knees and all,would be in the garden,sitting or bending down to pick out weeds and grasses from the growing sites.She painted picnic tables.She filled bucket after bucket of water and hand carried each one to each gardener’s individual plot. She would get mulch and compost to spread around and in the garden beds.She coordinated volunteers to mow.She found outlets for the produce to be given away.She kept up with the books.The list goes on and on. It wouldn’t be appropriate not to mention Dave Salm- on -her husband.He was there most days,putting in the hours needed to keep the gardens neat and working. A fixture in the kitchen at First Methodist,Dave also helped with the Deep Roots meals held at the church. Yes,Dave Salmon is a good husband.And a good man. And Deep Roots wouldn’t have been the same without him,maybe not even existed. These aren’t young people.I’ll not give their ages, but they’ve been around this earth more than most. They’ve been here long enough to realize that helping others is what gives us hope -gives us a reason to go on. Diane and Dave Salmon are stepping down from the gardens.Like most people there age would have done 10 years ago,they’re moving to be closer to family. We can only hope the next garden coordinator goes at the job with half of the enthusiasm as these two. A generous person will be blessed,for he gives some of his food to the poor.

What so many don't realize is how dangerous fireworks, especially the illegal ones,gunshots,and tannerite (similar to dynamite)can be to animals and to people. In Davie County,some fireworks,the kind professionals use,are against the law.Also,tannerite,which goes off like a bomb and can shake homes nearby,is against the law. That doesn't stop many people from setting them off. We have horses.In the past,it wasn't as much of a prob- lem,because the fireworks,gunshots,were not set off as close to our bam/pasture,and there weren't as many going off.Things have changed. We always leave our horses out on New Years and July 4 because we feel if they're in the stall and get nervous, they're subject to colic or hurting themselves. This time was different.The fireworks were less than 250 feet from our pasture.Also,next door neighbors set some off.They were the type professionals use,extreme- ly loud and lasted for 2 1/2 hours.It sounded like a war To the editor: Sixty-six years ago now,I was halfway through the first grade at Mocksville Elementary School on Cherry Street. Back then.I'm sure no signs described Mocksville as historic. People were just living out their lives in the place where they happened to be.Overall,I could be wrong about that. But I do know that is how a 7-year-old boy was thinking at the time. These days,this older boy is starting to feel pretty his- toric.After all,the longer you manage to stay alive,the more things you have to remember. At least,providing you can still do that thing.According to genealogical record,one of my fringe relatives expired in 1897 in St.Louis.Cause of death?Senile dementia. Well,the doctor does have to write down something.Medi- cal Latin can come in handy for that task. All this ruminating is just a mosey toward mentioning that I have vivid recollections of my Davie County class- mates during the later 50s and the earlier 60s. Recently I figured out a way to bring some focus to those thoughts.Now you can visit my virtual cemetery,a tribute to classmates that I shared maybe two thousand days with, Opportunities Lost-or not By Linda H.Barnette Many years ago when I was a senior at Catawba College, I realized that out of my group of close girlfriends I was the only one not planning a wedding after graduation.Fortu- nately,I had spent four years as the assistant to the English Department Chair,Dr.Raymond Jenkins,so I sought his advice.He suggested that I apply to graduate school to pur- sue a higher degree in my major field.So I did.I wrote to several universities both in and out of North Carolina and filled out several application forms both for acceptance and financial awards.To understand what a leap of faith I was taking,you must realize that none of the people I knew at school were going out on such a limb,that I knew nobody in either of the places I applied to,and so on.My parents were supportive of my plan,and when I look back almost 55 years later,they must have thought I was dreaming too big for an only child from a small town attending a tiny college although they never said that. As it worked out,I had several offers for graduate as- sistantships.After giving much thought to location,I de- cided that I wanted to venture out of state,so I chose the offer from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville via a phone call and a letter accepting the terms they offered me. This was all accomplished without a college tour!Eventu- ally,I received a letter offering me a residency counselor position,but I turned that down as I was going to school to study.That summer my parents and I went to the uni- versity housing department office and found a list of places where I might live off campus,and we visited several of those. We finally chose a room in a large,two-story house on the comer of W.Clinch Avenue,1221 to be exact,just one block from Cumberland Avenue where I would have most of my classes.Two unmarried sisters lived downstairs in the house,and four grad students lived upstairs,each with her own room and a shared bath and kitchen.In retrospect, I think my dad was favorably impressed with the large number of locks the ladies had on the doors!! Looking back,I can hardly believe that I had the courage to move that far away from home,not really having a clue as to what my situation would be,whether or not I could do graduate level work,what it would mean to be a graduate assistant,knowing nobody except the ladies in the house on Clinch,not having a car in the event that I needed to escape,just me and God. Somehow it all came together,and being a serious stu- dent and also realizing that it was a great opportunity to save myself from being a high school English teacher,I grew to love my professors and my work,especially in the Writing Laboratory.All the students who attended UT had to write a paper of at least C quality in order to graduate,so zone.There were moments they would stop and we would breathe a sigh of relief.Couple minutes later,they would start again. What the horses saw,such as the sparkles,explosions, going way up in the sky and falling down so close to their pasture and bam added to their panic,as did the loud nois- es.There are no leaves on the trees now,so they could see it more clearly.Our horses panicked and ran continuously the entire time.A panicked horse is like stampeding cattle. They are a danger to themselves and people.So we just had to wait it out.It was so upsetting,listening to their pounding hooves and not being able to do anything.The next morning,they both had obviously lost weight from the mnning and sweating.The younger one was coughing.The old senior mare had diarrhea.We had to call the vet and get medicine for both. Please,folks,have respect for your neighbors with horses and other animals.If you want to set off fireworks, please do it far enough away and try to use legal fireworks. Thank you for listening.

Joseph Jones Vancouver,Canada Quit trashing Ted Budd To the editor: Enough of this trashing Ted Budd. The fact is,he is standing for tmth,justice and our free- dom. I proudly stand with him. Janice White Mocksville the lab was a busy place.In addition,the girls in the house, also graduate students,all became good friends. Keep in mind that at that time we had no cell phones,no computers,tablets,or anything other than paper and pen, so everything I did,from research (remember those little lined note cards)to writing was done by hand,and I spent the majority of my time in the stacks of the Hodges Library. My parents did allow me one long distance call per week, and back then I had to tell the operator that I was calling from Knoxville to Mocksville,and that was often confus- ing!For holidays my mother and father would drive up to get me and then bring me back at the appropriate time. Now the plot thickens.I met and fell in love with a wonderful young man who was a student in the School of Social Work at Chapel Hill.The terms of his grant stated that he would have to work in the state of North Carolina after he got his MSW,so I had a difficult choice to make— whether to get married and move back home or stay at UT and finish my PhD.So my choice was a missed chance to have an acadenuc life that I had imagined. Although the marriage did not last,I have a son for whom I would not trade a degree or money or anything else.And,as things worked out,I had a wonderful career for 30 years,teaching for 8 years on the college level,2 years in high school,which I really loved,and 20 years as an elementary teacher of Academically Gifted students. The most ironic part of my career is how much I loved my high school assignment in Fayetteville,for it was there that I learned that teaching was never about the subject and all about the students!! Like Robert Frost’s character,I took the “road less trav- eled,”and so is the story of my life,one of opportunities both taken and missed,but none regretted!

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 -3 A More Perfect Union DCCC IS NOW DAVIDSON-DAVIE COMMUNITY COLLEGE When we opened our Mocksville campus in 1994,two neighboring counties began a future-focused relationship based on expanding education, creating opportunity,and strengthening local economies. Today,we’re officially changing our name to reflect what has always been true— we stand and serve proudly as a college representing Davidson and Davie counties. Nothing is different except a natural evolution in our name.

Davidson-Davie COMMUNITY COLLEGE 1169498 4 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 Grady McClamrock Jr.in his Mocksville law office.He retired after 43 years serving the legal needs of Davie residents.-Photos by Robin Snow Attorney retires after 43 years practicing in Mocksviiie By Mike Barnhardt Enterprise Record A shelf at the back of Grady McClamrock Jr.’s office holds more than just law books. It holds letters,notes,tro- phies and more -all thank- you gifts from clients for going that extra mile or rewards for deeds he ac- complished since he began practicing law here in 1977. It means more to the re- tiring attorney than some of his high-profile cases won for clients. McClamrock is one of a dying breed -an old-time country lawyer.And on Dec.23,he retired,although he will maintain an office with the Terry Law firm to keep up with ongoing cases. Grady McClamrock Jr.is a Davie County boy through and through -having grown up near Dutchman Creek off US 158,a son of Grady McClamrock Sr.and Sylvia McClamrock.He graduated a Rebel from Davie High School in 1970. It wasn’t long before he got into some legal trouble. He remembers giving an attorney $350 to help him get out of that trouble,and when it worked,he thought it may be his career. He earned a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from N.C.State University. He clerked in the law office of George Martin and Hank Van Hoy one summer,and fell in love with the law and practicing in a small town. He earned his juris doctor degree from Wake Forest University in 1977. He was sworn in by the late Judge Lester R Martin Jr.He was sponsored by his parents and the county at- tomey,John T.Brock. But none of the lawyers in Mocksville needed any help,so he offered to rent space from John Brock, who eventually hired him. “We had a wonderful practice until he retired and have had a wonderful and encouraging relationship for 43 years,”McClamrock said.Back then,the office -as was the tradition for many -closed on Wednes- day afternoons,but was open for a half of a day on Saturdays. “A lot of the merchants in town closed Wednesday afternoons to be open for the rural folks to come shop on Saturday,”he said.“John and I did income tax returns and deeds for $35,real es- tate closings ran from $75 to $150.If you didn’t blow more than a .15 you could have any DUI reduced to a reckless driving charge and most assault cases were dis- missed after a cooling off period.” Boy,how things change. He practiced with Brock until 1990,when he opened his own office across from the courthouse on South Main Street in Mocksville. He has practiced law for 43 years here,representing all types of clients and cas- es,including criminal,do- mestic,disability,govern- ment,estates,civil litigation and real estate. “Through the years I have been privileged to practice with and against some of the old-time true country lawyers,including John T. Brock,George W.Mafrin, William E.Hall,Peter W. Hairston,Butch Zimmer- man,Harrell Powell,Frank- lin Smith,John Hall and others who I consider legal giants.” Brock,Van Hoy and Ed Powell were mentors,he said.They taught him “the value of finding the truth.

Vaccinations are being administered at specially announced drive-thru din- ics at the health department. A third clinic was scheduled for Wednesday,this one for those age 75 and older. Initial doses went to frontline healthcare workers and long-term care facili- ties,said Suzanne Wright, county health director. “Supplies will be limited at first.Independent state and federal public health advisory committees have determined that the best way to fight COVID-19 is to start first with vaccinations for those most at risk,reach- ing more people as the vac- cine supply increases from January to June,”she said. More clinics will be scheduled as the vaccine becomes available,Wright said.To stay up-to-date on the schedule,follow Da- vie County Government on Facebook at www.facebook. com/DavieCountyGovern- merit. The new year is starting with continued free testing with a few changes. All testing will be held at the Davie County Com- munity Park,151 South- wood Drive in Mocksville. Testing will be available Monday-Saturday from 10 a.m.to 6 p.m.There will be no testing on Jan.18 due to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

Continued From Page 1 And I’m delighted to be part of this important moment.” Over the course of many decades,only four presi- dents have followed Bill Sinclair,the director of the original industrial education center. “Today,there’s a new entry in our history book,” said Dr.Darrin Hartness, college president since Jan- uary 2019.“But know this. As we proudly share our new name,we also recom- mit ourselves to the same core mission:an excellent education,which leads to promising careers,and supports the success of the communities we serve.” From almost the begin- ning,DCCC had a presence in Davie County,which did not have a community col- lege.That presence was not made formal until the 1980s when Davie leaders advocated for official recog- nition of DCCC as the pro- vider of community college education for that county. In 1994,the Davie Cam- pus in Mocks ville opened. Terry Bralley,now presi- dent of the Davie Economic Development Commission, received an honorary degree from the college in 2020 for his role in championing an official presence for DCCC in Davie County. "I think I'll be speaking for many in Davie County when I say I'm thrilled about the new name for our com- munity college,"said Terry Renegar,chair of the Davie County Board of Commis- sioners and president of the college's foundation."It's true,this college has been part of our community for a long time,so the name is just a better way of describ- ing the partnership we have in support of higher educa- tion for individuals and for the community as a whole." Today,the Davie Cam- pus has grown to include four buildings,emergency services training facilities, and truck driver training grounds.The Davie County Early College High School also is housed on the Davie Campus. While some programs are exclusive to the Davie Campus,students from Da- vie County often take class- es on the Davidson Campus, while Davidson residents also travel to Davie. •Fully Insured /Kj y •Free Estimates •Tree Work &\iidQ|•Stump Grinding Tree Removal J|•Bucket Truck •Trimming &Thinning Service (336)909-0609 (336)909-0610 Scotty Seaford Jack Seaford 1166184 COUPON y WSM ItfliauifluHte-gltemiiwiis M L.WE BUY GOLD!60”'* Se//your Unwanted Gold &Silve^JemlryToday j Confused?

Go wild in the kitchen in the new year As we usher in a new year,everyone’s ready for some- thing different -1 know I am.If you have game hunters at home,now’s a good time to try one or two recipes from this week’s feature. Before preparing wild game,a little knowledge is help- ful.These tips from an old L.L.Bean cookbook will im- prove the taste of the meat.For better tasting venison,hang the carcass with the skin on and age for a week in a cold and airy place such as a garage (30-40-degrees)to allow the tis- sues to break down.Aging veni- son in the deep freeze is another alternative.If the deer is skinned -cut it up,package,and freeze it immediately when you get it home. Wild game is leaner and tough- er than domesticated game.Ini- tially,prepare the venison by re- moving any cartilage.Remove all blood by soaking the venison in cold salt water with a little bak- ing soda and continuing to change the water until it remains clear. The final saltwater bath should be left overnight in the refrigerator. Your meat is now ready for the marinade. Marinating venison is a good idea to break down tough fibers, but 24 hours is not enough.About 4 days under refrig- eration is required.Avoid aluminum pans and use crocks, glass,or porcelain due to the acidity of a marinade.The meat should be cooked in a liquid and/or fat covering such as bacon strips. For you trappers out there,I discovered a 75-year-old recipe for cooking raccoon. Prepare venison for cooking.Cut the venison into small pieces about 1 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.Mari- nate meat overnight in teriyaki sauce with red cooking wine.Saute fresh mushrooms with a little canola oil.Com- bine marinade with the mushrooms to create the sauce. Simmer for a few minutes.Saute the venison at medium heat for 1 minute on each side.Spread the meat for baking. Apply a thin layer of Dijon mustard on top.Add black pep- per.Bake in a 400-degree oven for 10 minutes.Split and toast English muffins.Serve venison on muffin and cover with mushroom sauce.Yield:2-4 servings.

Remove meat from milk,reserving milk.Salt and pepper meat and dredge in flour.In a large skillet with 14 inch of oil,cook venison until lightly browned on both sides.Re- move from skillet and set aside.Drain off all oil except 2 tbsp.in skillet.Add chopped onion and saute until tender. Stir in 2 tbsp.flour and cook until lightly browned.Add milk to flour and stir until smooth.Add undiluted soup and stir well.Place venison in soup mix and cook on low heat for 1 hour.Add water to gravy if necessary.Yield:6 serv- ings.

Brack Bailey with daughter Carole Folmar when he was inducted in Davie Hall of Fame in 2013. By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record A legendary talent -Braxton Richmond Bailey III of Bermu- da Run,known by everyone as “Brack”-passed away on Jan.2. He was 83. Growing up in Advance,Brack Bailey was a dominating athlete for the Shady Grove Panthers in basketball as well as baseball, graduating with the last class in 1956,a few months before Davie County Consolidated High School opened.He had a sensational baseball career,evidenced by his induction into three halls of fame. After starring at Pfeiffer College, he played seven years of profes- sional baseball,including three years at the Triple-A level. He is one of the county’s most compelling athletic stories because he knocked on the Major League Baseball door during a time when the Los Angeles Dodgers had a gold mine of talent and when there were only 20 teams in the big leagues. “He was a helluva baseball player,and he was a good basket- ball player,”the late Gray Bam- hardt,who graduated from Shady Grove in 1955,said in 2006.“I couldn’t shine because of Brack. But after he got out of baseball,he called me and wanted to play golf. He got ready to hit and I thought he had some type of Polio.I’d never seen such a mess.I said:‘Brack,I finally found something I can beat you at.You beat me all the way through school,but I can beat you playing golf.Any time you want to play golf,let me know.’” During the summer of 1956, Bailey accepted a baseball offer from North Carolina.He had every intention of wearing Tar Heel blue. But the late Joe Ferebee -a Mocks- ville native who built an empire at Pfeiffer,finished with 600-plus college wins and is immortalized in eight halls of fame -stepped in and convinced Bailey to reverse his decision.

Varsity volleyball beats Mt.Airy Varsity boys to rely on Maddox By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record After being idle for 12 days, Davie’s varsity volleyball team returned to action with two non- conference matches in two days. The War Eagles gathered mo- mentum for the conference tour- nament and state playoffs by winning both. They were dealing with a dis- mpted lineup at Mt.Airy on Dec. 29.Aimee Loj was nursing an injury and Abigail Reynolds was out of town. The scores were 25-22,25-10, 18-25,25-18.After two sets,Davie seemed ready to win in a sweep. But Loj did not play in the third set, and it was probably no coincidence that Davie stumbled in that one. “Aimee didn’t practice over Christmas break,”coach Amber Brandon said.“She played the first two sets and we looked like a well-oiled machine.In the third set,she decided she probably need- ed to come out as she’s trying to ease back slowly.We didn’t want to overdo it before the conference tournament.In the third set,we Please See Beats -Page B4 By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The Davie varsity boys basket- ball team has a chance to climb into rarefied air in 2021. Coach Mike Absher’s team has pulled off three straight winning seasons.This is his 19th year at Davie,and a fourth consecutive winning season would be a first during Absher’s tenure. The War Eagles coulda/shoul- da done it seven years ago.They went 19-6,23-7 and 21-6 during the Martin years from 2010-11 through 2012-13.But Cody and Caleb decided to spend their senior year at Oak Hill Academy and Davie face-planted in 2013-14, going 4-21. The latest bid began in 2017- 18,when Davie went 18-9.Then came the winningest season ever, 24-3.And last year Davie made it three straight winning records at 15-10. The last time Davie achieved a string of four was during the Jim Young years -1998-99 through 2001-02,when Davie went 15-10, 21-6,15-10 and 16-9. Absher is more than ready for his 29th year as a varsity head coach.“It’s been the longest pre season in the history of high school basketball,”he said. Davie’s key graduation losses from last year were Brooks John- son,the No.1 scorer at 14.3,and James Reid (8.1).Davie also lost Iverson King,who transferred after averaging 6.3 points as a freshman. The unquestioned face of the program now is junior point guard Za’Haree Maddox.He’s a sensa- tional athlete,a college prospect. He’s a penetrating-and-dishing marvel.He was the No.2 scorer as a sophomore at 13.4.Among his biggest offensive games were nights with 22,19,24,19 and 18 points.One game he poured in 28 points to go with eight rebounds and six assists. “He’s such a good creator with his ability to get in the paint,” Absher said.“Everybody focusses on him and he’s very unselfish,so he distributes the ball to people around him.Yeah,he’ll be the piston that gets the offense going. We want to play up-tempo as much as we possibly can,and he’s a good guy to be doing that.He’s an improved shooter -midrange and 3s.That obviously is important because people will stay between Please See Varsity -Page B5 'C JVs complete perfect season By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The 2020 Davie JV volleyball season was power and precision and skill and everything you’d want from a team.This was utter domination. The War Eagles of Brittani Steger wrapped up an unforget- table 10-0 season last week.The amazing thing is Steger’s girls achieved perfection with only two sophomores and 10 freshmen. “We have four kids around 5-10 or 5-11,”varsity coach Amber Brandon said.“That’s pretty good size for a JV team.They have that grit of working hard.They’re scrappy,running all over the floor and doing anything they need to to win.” After going 8-0 in the Central Piedmont Conference,the War Eagles closed with a pair of non- conference matches. They traveled to Mt.Airy on Dec.29.The Granite Bears seemed no match for Davie in the first set, which ended 25-5 thanks to Lauren O’Connor’s masterful serving.But Davie wound up needing a third set to finish off the hosts. “Lauren went on a long serving streak,and that was pretty much the difference in that score,”Bran- don said.“I mean she scored the first 16 or 17 points of the game, and Mt.Airy couldn’t do anything with it..She does a really good job of mixing it short and deep.If she finds somebody that struggles to pass it,she has enough control of her serve that she can pretty much put the ball where she wants and go after that person.That’s some- thing that she’s really worked on this year.” But then Mt.Airy threw a scare into the mighty War Eagles,taking the second set 25-18.Davie had found itself heading to a third set for just the third time in nine matches.(Reynolds and Reagan were the other opponents to take Davie to the limit.) The winning streak lived on as Davie regrouped in time to win the third set 15-8. ••• One day later,Davie hosted Mt. Tabor.The scores were 25-19,25- 15.It was a giddy moment -10-0 season and 21-match winning streak dating to 2019.Steger saw her gaudy two-year record im- prove to 26-1. She went to battle with sopho- mores Camden Hurst and Gracie Wilson and freshmen Sophia Brady,Mikaylah Hutton,Hailey Johnson,Jordan Kistner,Melia Privett,Macey Smith,Reily York, Caroline Lakey,Taylor Smith and O’Connor. Brandon gave huge credit to O’Connor,Johnson and Lakey. “I knew about Lauren coming into the season,”she said.“I knew she had a ton of potential.I knew Hailey was going to be a strong libero.There was a lot of role play Please See Perfect -Page B4 ’’V Sophia Brady tips it over for the JV.-Photos by Mark Floyd i B2 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 ^COLLETTE /!■1 Art &Framing,Inc. 120 Boxwood Village Drive Mocksville,NC 27028 Riga 336-751-2296 Email:ColletteFraming@aol.com 336-998-8139 Kenneth L.Foster &Associates,PA •Land Surveyors •Planners •Mapping 336-723-8850 vv vv w.hay worth -mill er.com HOWARD REALTY PhUCar Automotive &Tire CALL OR BOOK ONLINE LaVida Massage of Clemmons LaVidaMassageClemmonsNC.com 336.766.0622 | DOROTHY’S TAX SERVICE,INC.

I DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 -B3 Bailey...* Continued From Page B1 hitting .469 as a junior and .424 as a senior.The out- fielder was named to the NAIA All-District and All- State teams in 1959 and 1960.Both years he paced the Carolinas Conference in home runs and RBIs.He was also president of the student body. “I was going to Carolina, and Ferebee was the reason I went to Pfeiffer,”Bailey said in 2006.“I already had my room at Carolina,and Ferebee got that job late in the year.He was going to build a powerhouse,which he did because we beat Carolina,(NC)State and all those teams as freshmen.” Los Angeles signed Bai- ley after his senior year,and he spent six of seven pro years in the Dodgers orga- nization.The exception was 1963 with the Reds.Though he fell inches short of reach- ing the promised land,he enjoyed all kinds of special moments and crossed paths with countless guys who made it to The Show. Bailey’s basement is a baseball shrine -pictures everywhere of baseball ce- lebrities,boxes of memora- bilia and lots of scrapbooks. “From the time I was knee-high,I dreamed of being a major league ball- player,”he said.“As I got higher and higher and to Tii- pie A,I still had that dream. If you had superior abilities, you’d get there.But I had mediocre abilities,and a lot of other things fall into it. The breaks,who’s ahead of you,the organization,who signed you,all the politics. Retrospectively,the closer I got the less compelling that dream was.In Triple A,it became more of a job.I had a family.I’d have to relocate basically to the West Coast in Spokane,Wa.,or Albu- querque,(N.M.).I probably didn’t have the physical ability.I didn’t have the size (at 5-11,170).” Never ihind Bailey’s modesty.His resume was exceptional. His second pro season (1961),in particular,was staggering.After getting beaned in the head and spending 18 days in the hospital,he bounced back in breathtaking fashion,earn- ing the Topps Minor League Player of the Month award in consecutive months (July/ August).Playing for Pana- ma City,he finished atop the Alabama-Florida League in hitting and took home Topps Minor League Player of the Year.He owned the No.2 average (.369)in all of the minors.To put that into per- spective,look who the first and third bats were:Tony Oliva,an eight-time all- star in the majors,and Lou Brock,who stole 938 bases in a hall-of-fame career.In 101 games,Bailey had 34 doubles,11 triples and 14 homers. Bailey flirted with the majors in 1963,making the Cincinnati Reds’spring training roster.He appeared in a major league game that spring,getting thrown out at home,before dropping to Triple-A San Diego. “That’s the one major league game I got into,in Tampa,FI.,”he said proudly. “I have a write-up to prove I was in one major league game.” Bailey got injured run- ning into the wall and the Reds traded him back to the Dodgers.He had an incredible season in 1964, hitting .321 with 28 doubles, 17 triples,19 homers,100 RBIs and a league-leading 174 hits for Double-A Al- buquerque.Future hall of famer Joe Morgan’s average (.323)was a tad higher,but Bailey won Topps Player of the Year for the second time. Although he never caught T a break with the Dodgers, his accomplishments were formidable right down to the end in 1966. “He was the best hit- ter that’s ever come up,” said Bamhardt,who was a Shady Grove pitcher and an American Legion teammate for three years.“He wasn’t only a good baseball player, he was a good guy,too.He wasn’t a hothead.He was the same when you saw him playing baseball as he was when you were with him in high school.Everybody looked up to Brack.He had it all.He was not only a good hitter,he was a good infield- er and outfielder.Wherever he was at,he was the best.” Bailey played on the same field with lots of big names.He played on the Dodgers’winter team with Ed Roebuck (major league pitcher from 1955-66),Lar- ry Burright (pitcher from 1962-64)and Jim Brewer (pitcher from 1960-76). Two teammates on the 1965 Spokane team that captured the Texas League title by 17 games were Don Sutton, a hall of famer who pitched from 1966-88,and Jack Billingham,a pitcher from 1968-80 who was the ace for Cincinnati’s Big Red Machine.Five more 1965 teammates went on to play for the Dodgers’parent club; Jim Barbieri,Lou Johnson, John Werhas,Bart Shirley and Thad Tillotson. There was the time Bailey played for Tommy Lasorda,who managed the Dodgers from 1976-96,in spring training.There was the time he pinch-hit for Oliva in an all-star game. There was the year (1964) he roomed with Bobby Cox, the Atlanta Braves manager from 1990-2010.There was the time he played in a Sally League All-Star Game with Pete Rose. “Pete was with the Ma- con Peaches and I was with the Greenville (S.C.)Spin- ners,”he said.“Tommy Helms (a major leaguer from 1964-77)and Oliva were on that all-star team.” There was the time he inadvertently sold a cap that belonged to a man named Duke Snider,Bailey’s man- ager in Spokane. “We had hand-me-downs and I didn’t realize it until I had sold it,”he said.“After the guy cleaned it,he found a ‘4’in it.He called me back and said:T can’t believe what you just sold me.’I said:‘What’s that?’He said: ‘Why is Duke Snider’s num ber in here?’I said:‘Well,I played for him.I guess he had the same sized head I did.’” And there was the time he got two hits for the Tex- as League All-Stars in a 4-2 win over the Houston Colt .45 s,a major league club from 1962-64 that be- came the Houston Astros in 1965.Among Bailey’s all-star teammates were Morgan,Sonny Jackson (major leaguer from 1963- 74)and Nelson Briles (ma- jor leaguer from 1965-78). “I think I was the only one on that team that didn’t make it (to the majors),” he said. Here’s even more Bai- ley feats that jump off the page.He played in three all-star games (1961,1962 and 1964),he batted .302 for his career and he hit a spring-training homer off Don Drysdale,a hall of famer who won 209 games for the Los Angeles Dodg- ers.Bailey recalled that moment. “That was the year (1962)him and (Sandy)Ko- ufax held out for a $100,000 each,”he said.“He pitched against us in an intrasquad game in Vero Beach,(FI.).” Of all Bailey’s perfor- mances,nothing compares to the 1964 game for Albu- querque when he launched three homers -on three pitches -off Pat Jarvis. Think about that.Three homers on three pitches against a guy who pitched for the Atlanta Braves from 1966-72. “That was something big then,”Barnhardt said of Bailey’s career.“It’s big now,but that was one of the biggest things around (Davie County)at the time. Golf hadn’t taken hold yet, and we didn’t even have a football team.Baseball was about it.We all kept up with him.” The scrappy Bailey chased his dream by play- ing the only way he knew, and that was all-out on every play.He came through time and again for the Dodgers’ farm clubs.He had all the skills needed to go all the way. There was one problem. The Los Angeles Dodgers were overloaded with talent. They went 89-65 in 1961, 102-63 in 1962,99-63 in 1963,97-65 in 1965 and 95-67 in 1966.They won the World Series in 1963 and 1965 and lost in the World Series in 1966. “I started playing third base in Double A and Tri- pie A because of what the Dodgers had ahead of me in the outfield -Tommy Davis, Willie Davis,Ron Fairly and Lou Johnson,”he said. Tommy Davis and Willie Davis each had 18-year ma- jor league careers.Johnson spent eight years in the majors. “I’ve been following the Dodgers since 1950,and they had about a half-doz- en hall of famers on that team,”H.T.Meroney,a 1958 Davie grad,said in 2006.“Brack should have been with somebody like Pittsburgh.They weren’t worth a damn back then.” Despite Los Angeles’ vast array of talent,Bai- ley had everything going for him early in the 1965 season.Former Brooklyn Dodgers great Pete Reiser was his Triple A manager at Spokane,Reiser saw the spark in Bailey’s game and Bailey bolted out of the blocks,leading the Pacific Coast League in hitting after the first two weeks. “I was his type of ball- player -which is not great ability,but I would crash into a wall and do whatever was necessary,”Bailey said. “Pete said:‘Have a year for me like you had last year and you’ll be in the big leagues with some organization, probably the Cubs.” Ferebee said:“Pete couldn’t believe the Dodg- ers didn’t have him on the bench with their parent club. If the ball stayed in the park. Reiser would catch it.They had to scrape him off the fence five or six times,and that’s before padded walls. Brack was that same type outfielder and Pete Reiser saw it.He never questioned anything.You’d like to have all nine like him.” But just when everything was pointing in the right direction.Reiser suffered a heart attack and had to give up managing. “Snider was named the manager,”Bailey said.“The Dodgers were my favorite team,Duke Snider was my idol and I really choked playing for that type of guy.And he was not a good manager.I saw him the next year when I was in Triple A and he was in B-ball and he said:‘Now I know how bad I was last year.’” Ferebee:“They changed managers and Brack didn’t have the ties he had with Reiser.” The 1966 season was Bailey’s last.As fate would have it,the Dodgers’pow- erhouse collapsed the year after Bailey’s retirement, going 73-89 in 1967.Two years after that,the majors expanded to 22 teams,add- ing the Montreal Expos and San Diego Padres. “My last year me and Billingham drove from Spo- kane to my house in Win- ston-Salem,”Bailey said. “I said:‘Jack,if I can get a job with some promise.I’m not going back to baseball.’ I had my college degree;he did not.He said:‘Well,I’m going to give it one more try.’They expanded,he got picked by Montreal,he was traded to Houston and he and Joe Morgan went to Cincinnati in another trade. They expanded right when I got out of baseball.” Ferebee said there’s no telling what Bailey might have achieved had he played for another franchise. “The Red Sox and Twins tried to buy him from the Dodgers because they had a place for him to play,” Ferebee said.“The Dodgers wanted to keep him because they figured on using him the next year.Brack was a better hitter than anybody they had on the bench.The Dodgers’pinch-hitter was not a position player;it was Don Drysdale,the great pitcher,and he couldn’t hit like Brack Bailey.He could play anywhere.He would have been ideal for the Dodgers to have on that team -if nothing else,as a pinch-hitter.Lou John- son wasn’t the ballplayer Brack Bailey was,but he played for the Dodgers.No doubt he should have played some big league ball,and he would have if the Dodg- ers would have turned him loose.” Barnhardt wondered what would have happened if Bailey’s patience hadn’t worn out. “I feel sure if he would have stayed one more year, he would have made it,” Bamhardt said.“I don’t see how he kept from making it. If he would have been with anybody else,he would have made it.Wachovia offered him a job and I think he was getting tired of it.” In 1991,Bailey was in- ducted in the Pfeiffer Hall of Fame.In 2001,he was inducted into the Greater Winston-Salem Professional Baseball HOF by the Win- ston-Salem Warthogs.In 2013,he was enshrined in the Davie County Athletics HOF.

Continued From Page B1 were playing without two major players.It took us a while to figure out a new normal.But it was good to see the kids play in a com- pletely different lineup and see them figure it out and push through.” Davie took the fourth set and dropped the Granite Bears’overall record to 7-4. Senior libero McKenzie Stakely has continuously starred,making outrageous digs and saves,and this day was no different. “McKenzie has blown me away all year,”she said. “There were two plays where she chased down balls -like a shanked pass -that were not supposed to be gotten.She’s so quick and that’s just something you cannot teach.She can mn down balls that nobody else in our conference can mn down.” Junior Molly Bures and sophomore Kiah Mathis did their part. “Molly’s playing time has gone up,a bigger role,” she said.“She’s a smart player.She did really well. Kiah had a great game, probably the best I’ve seen her play.She was a differ- ence-maker.” ••• One day later,the War Eagles hosted Mt.Tabor.It was a mismatch,Davie win- ning 25-19,25-16,25-13 as the Spartans tumbled to 4-7. “I didn’t think they had any major hitters,so we focussed on not making hitting errors and giving away points,”Brandon said. “It was another good match for other people to have to step up and score with Abby being out of town.” Davie got strong perfor- mances from junior Ali An- gell and sophomore Emma Hayes. “Ali had a really good match,”she said.“She’s playing really well right now.She has stepped into a different role this year, having to serve and help us defensively.That’s some- thing that she’s never had to do.She’s also having to swing on the outside, and that’s challenging for a left-handed kid. “Emma had a couple good serving mns.Some- thing she brought to the table last year as a freshman was being a great server. She hit a slump at the begin- ning of this year,but she’s come back the last couple of matches and that’s ex- citing.She’s our first server and goes behind the line with a lot of confidence. Not only does she hit the ball hard,but it has a lot of movement.” Recovering from injury, Loj looked like she’s well on her way back to full strength.“Aimee had a re- ally good match,”she said. “She had a couple real good blocks.” Notes:Davie,which is 9-2 overall,finished second in the Central Piedmont Conference.The standings: Reagan 10-0,Davie 7-2, East Forsyth 4-4,West For- syth 5-5,Glenn 2-8 and Reynolds 0-9....The CPC Tournament (Jan.4-5)was originally going to include the top four teams,but West Forsyth was placed in quar- antine,changing the format to three teams.Davie,the tournament host,faced East Forsyth on Monday.The winner took on No.1 Rea- gan on Tuesday....The state playoffs begin next week.

They’re so unselfish.They’re willing to give the ball up. They have a high basketball IQ.Several have played AAU together,and it shows. This team has potential.” Kenney has replaced Ty Woodring,who guided Da- vie’s JV for three years. Sophomore Burke Rosen- baum is the one returner. There would have been two, but sophomore Hayden Wil- liams will miss the entire season with an injury.Davie needs Rosenbaum,a guard, to be superb,and Kenney be- lieves he will have a big year. “Burke has all the skill s necessary to be successful at the (varsity)level,but he needs more seasoning,” he said.“Quite frankly,he could play all five positions if I asked him to.He’s a very intelligent player.No one is going to outwork Burke in the gym -ever.He does drills the way you ask him to do them.He doesn’t complain; he’s a natural leader on and off the floor.He can shoot. he handles the ball extremely well,he’s unselfish.I mean he’s everything you would want in a point guard.” The other sophomores are Hunter Davis,Aidan Froelich,Zeb Pilcher,Levi Miller,Brodie Smith and Bryce Bailey. Davis,who is around 6-4, is a potential staple. “He has extremely long arms,”Kenney said.“He plays closer to 6-7 just by standing on the floor.He’s got some good basketball skills.He’s got a soft shot. Whenever he makes up his mind,he’s got some nice moves around the basket. He’s not afraid to put it on the floor and take it to the rack. And by golly,if he’s given the opportunity,he can bring the ball up,too.” Varsity.. Continued From Page B1 him and the basket,and he has to be a threat to make jump shots -and he’s defi- nitely that player.” There are six varsity re- turners,including seniors Luke Williams,Avery Taylor and Justus Tatum and juniors Alex Summers and Zymere Hudson. Williams (4.6)showed flashes of offensive potential last year with five games in which he put up between 12 and 22 points.He could be Froelich,a guard,and Pilcher,a wing/post,go hard all the time -all the time. “Aidan works hard,” Kenney said.“He’s the typ- ical lunch-pail type of kid. Hard hat,lunch pail and will come in and do whatever you ask him to do.He’s a hard-nosed defender.He’s very aggressive.He’s going to help us out on the defen- sive end. “Zeb is right up there with Burke in terms of work ethic. This kid goes full bore in the gym every practice,every drill.Anything we do is 100 percent for Zeb.He can han- die the ball pretty well.He’s a streak shooter.He shoots well enough to play the three. He runs the floor extremely well.He can rebound.He’s a good all-around player.” a consistent double-figure producer as a senior. “He has worked so hard -so hard,”Absher said.“He really is a good shooter.He’s a really,really good finisher with his left hand.He’ll step right in there and will be able to handle what we’re asking him to do.” Absher said he’s seen sig- nificant improvement from Tatum,Taylor and Hudson. “Through this long off- season,Justus and Avery are both much improved,”he said.“They played enough last year that they know what it’s all about.Zymere had some (varsity)expert- ence as a sophomore.He’s grown physically and gotten stronger.He’s going to be a big part.His shooting and his ability to get in the paint and create has improved.He can be a really good on-the- ball defender.You can put some lineups out there that defensively have a chance to create some havoc,and Zymere would be one of those people.” Summers is a threat from 3-point territory.Couple that with his defensive improve- Upcoming Games Wednesday,Jan.6 Davie cross country in CPC championship meet at Ivey Redmon Davie JV boys basketball at home vs.Carson at 4:15 Thursday,Jan.7 Davie varsity basketball at home vs.South Iredell at 5/7 Davie JV boys basketball at South Iredell at 5 Friday,Jan.8 Davie swimming at home vs.Starmount/Elkin at 7:30 Saturday,Jan.9 Davie varsity basketball at home vs.Carson at 12:30/2:30 Davie freshman boys basketball at Watauga at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday,Jan.12 Davie varsity volleyball in state playoffs Created by Timothy E.Parker January 4,2021 ACROSS 1.Happening with regularity, to really old poets 4.(K)“Stop!

Lawhon,a long-range bomber,has shown vast po- tential on the offensive end. “Coleman is a scorer,”he said.“He can shoot the 3 and he’s not afraid to take it to the hoop.He’s got a good mid- range jumper as well.He’s got to get more physical; that’s going to be a challenge for all the freshmen.He’s a pure scorer.He looks to score,but he also sees the floor very well.If someone’s open ahead of him,he’ll give them the ball.” There are several more nice pieces. “Koontz is very active around the basket^”he said. ment and he could see a bigger role as a junior. “I think he’s picked up and grasped the defense,”he said.“He’s a very cerebral player on defense.He under- stands positioning and that kind of stuff.He played just enough as a sophomore to be able to step in games this year and hopefully be able to contribute at a higher level.” Eight juniors were a part of a 15-5 junior varsity in 2019-20.Blake Wals- er (13.8)and Jake Powers (11.8)were the 1-2 scorers for that JV,and savvy point guard Owen Byers was next at 5.8.The other five:Ryan Walton,Luke McCormick, Caleb Earnhardt,Max Junker and JT Bumgarner. “Blake practiced with the varsity for the first month of the season last year,”Absher said.“So far so good with him.He’s worked really, really hard. “Jake can be a streaky shooter.We’ve talked to him about doing things other “He’s got a lot of good drive around the basket in terms of defense and rebounding. He has a nice,soft shot.He’s getting better at playing with his back to the basket.He’s definitely going to help us. “Ratledge has good bas- ketball instincts.He’s got a nice shot when he squares up.He rebounds well.He’s physical around the basket.If given the opportunity,he can put it on the floor and take it down the court for us. “Helton can handle the ball and shoot pretty well.” Kenney has seen an unex- pected ascension from Clark, a lefty combo guard. “I saw Luke at workouts in the spring and summer, and it’s amazing how much he has improved,”he said. “He’s a living example of if than making shots,and he’s become a better rebounder - and that’ll help us.” The program has two newcomers -senior Zy’Mier Lewis and junior Tate Car- ney.A raging talent in foot- ball,Carney hasn’t played hoops since middle school. That’s four seniors and 12 juniors.The battle for playing time is fierce. “There’s a lot of guys who are similar perimeter players, so it’s a matter of who can adjust quicker to playing on the varsity,”Absher said.“It does make practice very fun, though,because there’s a great competitive edge with the whole group.That’s ob- viously a good thing. “I’m excited.I think it’ll be fun.” Last year the War Eagles finished third in a joyfully un- predictable Central Piedmont Conference race.Reynolds captured the regular-season title with room to spare, going 9-1.(It marked the Demons’first regular-season he wants it bad enough and is willing to work at it...He’s going to put his time in,he’s going to do the drills the way the coaches tell him and his game has improved a ton since the spring.” Kenney has coached boys and girls at the middle school and high school levels for many years.His latest stint was as an assistant to Kevin Revels on the varsity girls bench,which lasted four years.Now Revels is assist- ing Kenney. “I’m blessed to have Kev- in working with me,”he said. “We complement each other so well.He has a wonderful basketball mind.He knows how to teach the game and reach the players.I’m just blessed and thankful that he’s working with us.” crown since 2007.)But there was heavy congestion among the other five,with Glenn at 6-4,Davie 5-5,West Forsyth 4-6,East Forsyth 3-7 and Reagan 3-7. Reynolds figures to be the class of the league again,but anything could happen from second through sixth. “We played Reynolds in a fall league,and they’ve got a really good point guard and a good kid inside that seems like has been there for 10 years,”Absher said.“They’ll be tough.I think Reynolds is a notch above some people, but overall you can throw a blanket over everybody. I think each night will be very competitive.I think everybody’s got a chance to be successful.” Notes:The program’s all-time winningest coach, Absher brings a 237-222 Da- vie record into 2021....The varsity staff has not changed. Absher’s assistants are Bruce Wallace and Shane Nixon. Fun By The Numbers Like puzzles?

Pamela J.Tosco c/o Attorney J.Gregory Matthews P.O.Box 937 Yadkinville,NC 27055 Publish 12/31,01/07,01/14,01/21 I \ f B8 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.7,2021 Cana/Pino Remembering ‘wonderful’people lost in 2020 By Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino Correspondent Good-bye to the year 2020 and to some wonder- ful people who died during that year.This is not a com- plete list of the people we have lost in the last year—it is just some who were con- nected to Wesley Chapel or the Wesley Chapel breakfast and one who was a special friend of mine whose obitu- ary I found interesting. Nora Cline Latham,96, was certainly a first lady in our community.She helped in the Pino community and at Wesley Chapel Unit- ed Methodist Church.She was indeed the best cook around,and we all still miss her smile and her chocolate pies.We miss you,Nora, but we will not forget you and all you did for each of us and for your church and community.Nora was bur- ied at Wesley Chapel be- side her husband,Harmon Latham,on Dec.12. Madeleine Smoot Sparks died about one month be- fore Nora Latham and was buried at Macedonia Mora- vian Church beside her hus- band,Johnny Sparks.Both Nora and Madeleine were in school at Farmington High School at the same time and remained friends through the years since they gradu- ated.Mrs.Sparks was my teacher at Mocksville High School and was the only one of my teachers still living in 2020.Mrs.Sparks was a good teacher,who was just out of college when she taught me those many years ago—I graduated from Mocksville High School in 1950.Mrs.Sparks stopped teaching,raised a family of six children,and then start- ed teaching again -always smart and right up-to-date on everything.Letty Foster (Smith)and I even went to the Smoot-Sparks wed- ding at Bear Creek Baptist Church.What I am trying to say is that I and others in this community have good memories of Madeleine Smoot Sparks,a special 95-year-old lady,who.died from Covid-19 as did her oldest son,Edwin,and his wife,Carol.Mrs.Spark’s son-in-law,Michael Mill- er,is a member of Wesley Chapel,and we want him and his wife,Nancy Sparks Miller,that to know they have the sympathy of the Wesley Chapel people. Anna Ruth Whitlock Davis was not a resident of Pino or a member of Wes- ley Chapel,but she was involved in the community and church activities be- cause she was a dear friend of Vernon Dull,who was much a part of both our church and community. Ruth lived in Mocksville and was active in the First Methodist Church there, but she attended all special services and activities at our church and all of the parties and dinners of the Fellowship Sunday School Class of Wesley Chapel. We just counted Ruth as one of our own.Vernon’s children,grandchildren,and great-grandchildren claimed Ruth as their grandmother Nora Latham,Ruth Davis ,Vernon Dull,and Harmon Latham (all de- ceased)at a Wesley Chapel Sunday School Class Christmas Dinner at Frostland. and called her “Nana.”We all miss Ruth,who was 95 when she died. Betty Anderson Spill- man,83,a sweet lady who lived in the Courtney com- munity,because she came to the country ham breakfast at the Wesley Chapel Fellow- ship Hall even when she had to come in a wheelchair.We always enjoyed having Bet- ty,and her husband,Troy Spillman,and appreciat- ed the great effort they put forth to come to breakfast. Another member of the Courtney community died just last week.That person is Charles “Bud”Baity.He was a long-time supporter of Wesley Chapel.He came to breakfast there until we had to stop serving break- fast because of Covid-19. Even when he lived at an assisted-living facility,he would drive himself to Pino to the country ham break- fast.Bud wanted to come to the breakfast,and we wanted him to be there be- cause he always had some tale with which to entertain. Until her death.Bud and his wife,Nell,were generous in their support of Wesley Chapel.After Nell’s death. Bud continued that support. Wesley Chapel people were grateful to Bud and Nell Ba- ity and Bud’s brother,Clar- ence Baity,and his wife, Estelle,for their generosity when we built the new Fel- lowship Hall.Bud was 91 when he died,and he was a person we all loved and ap- predated. Another supporter of the Wesley Chapel breakfast passed away in 2020.That person was Wilson Sparks, who came to breakfast each month with his wife,Kathy, even though he had to use a scooter to get around.It was always a special pleasure to see Wilson and Kathy who seemed to enjoy the breakfast.Wilson died just after his 80th birthday.The people of our church want Kathy to know that she has our sympathy. I lost a friend about two months ago who was not a member of our community, church,or our state.Grace Burleigh lived in Wayne, Maine.Grace was a dear friend of my uncle,Wal- ter Etchison,and thereby became my friend.When I read 101-year-old Grace’s obituary,I thought,“This is a history of the last hundred years in capsule form.” I guess once a teacher, always a teacher because I found myself wanting to share this history lessons with the readers. The obituary said, “Grace lived through two pandemics,prohibition, and woman’s suffrage.She stood with her father,Au- gust Vorpahl,at the Roo- sevelt Field in 1927 to witness Charles Lindber- gh begin his transatlantic flight.She lived through the Great Depression,two World Wars,the founding of McDonald’s,the entire cold War,black and white TV to having a smart TV and watching Netflix.She lived during the attack on Pearl Harbor,Brown vs.the Board of Education,the in- vention of the atomic bomb, the rise and fall of the Ber- lin Wall,the Cuban Missile Crises,the assassination of JFK,the death of Marin Lu- ther King,Roe,vs.Wade, the rise of the personal com- puter,the birth of the inter- net,the Maine Ice Storm of 1998,the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, and cell phones She wit- nessed America’s first Af- rican-American President. She actually lived to see 18 U.S.Presidents in her lifetime and voted for the first time for Harry Truman much to her father’s dis- may.”The obituary also de- scribed Grace as “sharp as a tack,stubborn,wise,very flirtatious,humble,accept- ing of our changing world and absolutely bionic.”It is easy to see why I loved Grace Burleigh of Wayne, Maine,who I visited often by telephone. ^oHnnuneywin^wner of iHuneycutt Painting &Home Impfovemeht,alongside his wife,Tracy,and his son,Reid. Exterior painting is one of the many services that John Huneycutt offers. Huneycutt Painting &Home Improvement This past year,we cherished “home”more than ever During a year when our world turned upside down, many people began investing in the one place where they always feel safe and comfortable:their homes. This became evident to John Huneycutt,owner of Huneycutt Painting &Home Improvement,as he helped homeowners,business owners,and new and return cli- ents alike modify,repair,and renovate their homes and businesses this past year. “It was such a blessing to be trusted to come into peo- pie’s lives during a year filled with so much uncertainty, and help them repair,replace,or modernize areas of their homes or businesses.People realized more than ever how important their homes are to them.I know as a family,we began to appreciate our home so much more,especially during the months when we could not go anywhere that was not essential,”says John,whose family is in the middle of updating their own home. “I tackle every home improvement project as I would at my own home,”says John.“Not only do these projects add value to a home or business,but they give the homeowner or business owner a sense of peace, security,and enjoyment.”The services John offers in- elude:interior and exterior painting,handyman work and repairs,carpentry projects,home upgrades (including flooring,tile,backsplash,and countertops,)and pres- sure washing.He can tackle all ranges of work for his clients -small projects like hanging new doors,replac- ing hardware,and basement trash removal;mid-size projects like closet makeovers,replacing cabinetry,and updating the flooring or paint in just one room of a home; to more extensive projects like market-ready upgrades, erecting or rebuilding decks,kitchen remodels,and full house paintings.

As of Jan.8,1,791 Davie residents had received the first dose of the Modema vaccine. Eighteen residents had re- ceived both rounds of shots. Those numbers do not include long term care facility vaccina- tions,being handled through the state health department and Walgreens and CVS pharma- cies. And starting this Friday,the drive-through vaccine din- ic will be moved to the Da- vie County Community Park (old high school)off U.S.601 South in Mocksville.Until fur- ther notice,the vaccine is for Davie residents age 75 or older, or frontline healthcare workers handling COVID patients. Weather permitting,the clinic will be held from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.every Friday.Be- ginning Jan.20,the clinic will also be held every Wednesday from 1-4:30 p.m.The vaccines will later be offered to the next phase of residents after those age 75 and older,starting with healthcare workers age 50 and older and those who have in-person contact with patients, then to front-line essential workers which includes many occupations,such as teachers and child care workers.It then goes to those workers of any age before being offered to stu- dents and others. Residents are asked to avoid the US 601 South area during the vaccination times,as traffic is expected to be heavy. Those going to a clinic are asked to fill out paperwork in advance if possible.It can be found at Daviecountync.gov. That site will also list when a new group of eligible residents can receive the vaccine. As the vaccines begin to in- crease,so are the numbers of people infected with the virus. A report released on Monday revealed that 394 Davie res- idents are suffering from the virus,with 10 of those in the hospital.To date,2,629 Davie residents have contracted the virus,26 died. MLK virtual program Monday The Davie County NAACP Annual Martin Luther King Celebration will be held vir- tually on Monday, Jan.18. A pa- rade of cars will lineup at 12:30 p.m.in the park- ing lot of Shiloh Dannie Montgomery Baptist Church, 544 E.Depot St.,and proceed along a designated route at 1 p.m. A virtual program will start at 1:30 p.m.with Min- ister Dannie Montgomery as the guest speaker.She holds a bachelor’s degree in business education teaching and com- puter information system from Fayetteville State and Wingate University respectively. She is a lifelong resident of Anson County,being named Anson Challenge Academy Teacher of the Year -1999 and 2002 . Music will be provided by Harold Moore. Call Priscilla Williams at 336-682-6138 for a link to the virtual program. The snow that almost didn’t happen at all Oh,the ups and downs of snow forecasts. First,it was a possible winter weather event. Then forecasters said this area would receive from 2-4 inches of the white stuff;some said accumulations would be even higher.Schools went to remote learning only (It could have been a snow day had it not been the last day of the semester.).But when Friday came,all most saw was a little cold rain until late in the afternoon -when parts of the county received enough snow to cover the grass.Other ar- eas of the county received only rain.Above, Mocksville’s Main Street is just wet as snow begins to accumulate on yards and sidewalks. At right,a resident ventures out during the storm. -Photos by Robin Snow Advice to newly-elected board members:Calm down By Mike Barnhardt Enterprise Record Politicians go into office thinking they’re going to change the world. Clint Junker,chair of the Davie County Board of Educa- tion,said he fell into that trap when first elected.His advice to newly-elected school board members? “First,calm down.Every- thing is going to be OK.It’s a marathon,not a sprint to get things done.”He urged board members not to feel pres- sured to know everything,that trained staff works daily for the benefit of students. He then asked other veteran board members to give advice. “Trust your fellow board members and be quick to lis- ten and slow to speak,”Wendy Home said.“You don’t have to say something at every meet- ing.” Paul Drechsler said he once believed the board was noth ing but a mbber stamp,blindly passing whatever the super- intendent recommended.He wanted to be on the board to fix it.Instead,he said he realized that almost every item before the board had been painstak- ingly studied by competent staff members. “There’s a lot of work done prior to a board meeting.Now, my questions are more out of curiosity.” And he agreed with Home. “I have two ears and one mouth and should use them propor- tionately.” “You can’t change Davie County Schools by yourself,” said member Dub Potts.“Use the chain of command when there’s a problem.” “Don’t be afraid to ask ques- tions,”said Lori Sluder Smith. “The central office staff knows what they’re doing.”She also urged fellow board members and others to be more involved in the schools. David Carroll said it took him several meetings to be- come acclimated to board pro- tocols.“The quality,expert- ence and commitment of this board and system is absolutely outstanding.” Board members come from different backgrounds but work together as a team with a level of tmst.Junker said.“Know- ing that we’ve got each others’ backs is a big deal.” It was Cammie Paige Webb’s first full meeting as a board member. 2 -I)AVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 Editorial Page Vaccine rollout creeping The way things are going,it may be in March,but I’ve decided to get the COVID vaccine when my turn rolls around. Don’t get me wrong.I’m not a sheep. Sure,I wear a mask in public.But it’s not because King Cooper told me to.It’s because I don’t want to get sick,and I don’t want to unknowingly make others sick. And on the bright side,wearing that mask has tremen- dously helped my dental hygiene.I’ve always thought I brushed my teeth well ...until I smelled my breath under that mask.Yuck.Now I brush and swish,and not with some fruity smelling Kool Aid type mouthwash, but with the alcohol-laced,bad-tasting stuff.It has to work when it tastes that bad. Sure,I practice social distancing when applicable. Not because Queen Cohen told me to,but because I pretty much did that before that Chinese bat became someone’s meal.And as you may remember from the pre-social distancing days,not everyone brushes well and uses mouthwash.That’s one of the things I don’t miss. Sure,I wash my hands often.Not because some gov- emment official says that’s the thing to do,but because of where my hands have been.Use your imagination, then imagine it a bit worse.Enough on that one. And sure,when my time comes.I’m going to get the COVID vaccine.Maybe there’s a little sheep dog in me after all,because I’m doing it to help get this mess be- hind us. Modem medicine is a great thing,and Operation Warp Speed helped to get the vaccine to the public in record time. But modem medicine is also its worst enemy.We have a pill for everything.We have a surgery for everything. In other words,we have a price for everything.We’re prescribed treatments more based on putting money in a certain company’s pocket than what is the best for us in the long mn.At times,we demand treatments for some ailment or the other when the best treatment would be to let it mn its course. Do I tmst the vaccine?Yes,well,at least I’m about 90 percent sure it should work,and I’m a skeptic on just about everything. Do I get a flu shot every year?No.Never had one. Never contracted the flu,either. Do I go to the doctor every year?No.Never felt the need to. Do I have conditions and injuries that would be better if I let modem medicine decide the treatment?Prob- ably,but groceries are more important.Going to the doctor can bankmpt a fella quickly. But I will get the vaccine. It’s a good time to point out that the CDC ranks North Carolina pretty low in the rollout of administering the vaccine.It does seem to be happening slowly. It’s a better time to point out that the Davie County Health Department,dispatched with the job of adminis- tering the vaccine here,has done a terrific job of doing just that.Agencies worked together for the drive-thm clinics that allowed priority local residents to get the vaccine.All reports seiid that all involved -from those directing the traffic to those handling the paper work to those administering the shots -were pleasant and ef- ficient.We couldn’t ask for anything more. The only complaints were from folks who couldn’t -or wouldn’t -wait in their vehicles for hours.That’s understandable,but it seems those counties taking ap- pointments are having more troubles and using more resources. Folks,we are going to get through this.No matter the cause.No matter who’s to blame. It’s up to us to be kind to one another in the mean- time.Don’t worry about the politics of the situation. Don’t try to be the COVID police.Don’t think less of people because they act or think differently than you. -Mike Bamhardt DAVIE COUNTY USPS 149-160 171 S.Main St.,P.O.Box 99,Mocksville,NC 27028 (336)751-2120 Published weekly by Salisbury Newsmedia LLC Robin Snow...General Manager Mike Bamhardt Managing Editor Ray Tutterow Advertising Director Brian Pitts Sports Editor Mocksville Enterprise Davie Record Cooleemee Journal 1916-1958 1899-1958 1901-1971 Periodicals Postage Paid in Mocksville,NC 27028 Subscription Rates Single Copy,75 Cents $32.03 Per Year In Davie County POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to: Davie County Enterprise Record P.O.Box 99,Mocksville,NC 27028 In The Mail ... President proves that words matter To the editor: Is there a “providence”in what we witnessed on Wednes- day,Jan.6,2021 in our nation’s capital? In the mostly ceremonial process of the United Con- gress’s vote to certify the 2020 presidential election,what started out as Trump supporters protesting the election results,quickly turned into,what has been described by many as,a domestic terrorist attack.Did the President set the stage for violent conflict by urging protesters to “fight for me”and then falsely state he would be walking with them to the Capitol? He certainly did not instruct them to be peaceful and avoid violence,and he neglected to condemn the violence when he realized what was happening at the Capitol.In fact,he had to be convinced to put an end to what he had instigated,telling the crowd,“We love you.You are spe- cial.Go home in peace.” For weeks we have heard the many unfounded and false allegations leveraged by the current administration and its supporters against the election results.Despite the many failed court cases and states’board of election challenges, which repeatedly supported the election results,the Presi- dent and his supporters continued the baseless claims of election fraud,planting seeds of doubt in the election pro- cess,which is the cornerstone of our republic. Our great democracy supports our right to “peacefully” protest and to voice our discontent.However,what our democracy does not condone is the violence and blatant disregard for law and order that occurred on Wednesday. Proverbs 29:11 tells us,“A fool gives full vent to his anger,but a wise man keeps himself under control.” If the President,who claims to be a man of God,had fol- lowed this tenet,he would have urged his supporters to go to Washington and engage in “peaceful”protest. In his prayer that closed Thursday morning’s joint ses- sion of Congress,Senate Chaplain Barry Black quoted Proverbs when he stated:“The power of life and death is in the tongue.” Folks,words matter. And without truth and trust,it is hard to maintain a true democracy.During this fragile time,let us all pray for,and work towards the kind of nation we can all be proud to be citizens of. Davie County Chapter of the NAACP Social Action Committee Sharon D.Anderson,Co-chair,Bermuda Run Thanks to all involved in vaccine process To the editor: My wife,Carol,and I got our first Covid 19 vaccina- tions on Wednesday,Jan.6 at the health department event in Mocksville. It must be said that the volunteers,staff,medical person- nel and law enforcement members did an outstanding job of controlling traffic,directing cars,answering questions and providing the inoculations.Too often these groups of service personnel and volunteers receive little or no public recognition for what they do for our community. Well,here's a congratulations and thank you from two grateful citizens. Bruce &Carol Hemming Advance Davie the best with vaccine rollout To the editor: I would like to thank the Davie County Health Depart- ment for their swift response in administering the Covid 19 vaccine.The drive thru process was effective,with mini- mal contact with other people. Even though we did have to wait for a few hours and traffic was a mess,because of the outstanding help from our law enforcement,it was handled safely and with as little turmoil as possible.I have heard from friends in sur- rounding counties who were astounded that my wife and I were given the vaccine on Dec.30.Kudos to the county. I would suggest to those getting the shot,take a good book or something to occupy you while you are waiting and be patient.Wear a mask when you open your window to answer their questions.Fill out the form that is available on the county website (to include your health insurance info)and wear something that you can roll up the sleeve and access your upper arm. Once again,thank you Davie County,you're the best. Tim Trudgeon,Mocksville Don’t be manipulated for others’gain To the editor: I am a US Navy officer veteran who served the USA with honor during the Cold War and Desert Storm.I was raised to be a Christian and have done my best to practice the teachings of Jesus.I attended public school in Winston- Salem during the 1960s and graduated from high school in 1973.1 have worked to earn money since I was a child doing yard work and baby sitting for neighbors and began having paid jobs at 14 with a permit.I began teaching Sun- day School at 16.1 put myself through college without help from loans or my parents,and it took me 7 years to get that 4-year degree before I voluntarily joined the Navy. I know from experience that everything has a context and am horrified to see so many Americans either not know that or act as if they have forgotten that.America’s Founders intended to protect the freedom to speak publicly against our government,but not to violently attack the hu- man beings who are paid to protect those human beings that We The People elected to govern us. America began as a revolution against taxation without representation,so the founders made sure we were ad- equately represented by local,state,and federal elected of- ficials.It is the patriotic duty of every one of us to stay in- formed about the facts affecting life in our neighborhoods, towns,cities,states,and nation,and avoid becoming se- duced by those who would mislead us into demonizing our neighbors.Telling lies to maintain power and promote di- visiveness is not protected speech,it is propaganda.When a lame duck President does that,it is sedition. With the current access to the Internet and highly paid pundits who want to increase their ratings,we now have two radically different sets of beliefs in America;one based upon reality and grounded in the facts about what the US Constitution says and how to improve our democratic re- public,and one that has demonized the people who believe in facts,science,and the truth about America. It is not about the so called “elites”or “libtards”or the “conservatives”and those who would reduce the issues to “right versus left”are misrepresenting the facts.If you be- lieve the “other”is dangerous and has bad intentions,then that makes you more easily controlled. Divide and conquer is an ancient and effective form of warfare.We must unite now to stop allowing us to be di- vided against one another for the benefit of our enemies. America’s Founders wanted to protect your right to practice your religion or no religion without persecution. Most recently too many people have been wrongly claim- ing America is a Christian nation,while advocating for violence,discrimination,rejecting those seeking asylum, and ignoring the suffering of their fellow human beings.If you do consider yourself a Christian,does it concern you to see other people claiming to be Christians,supporting behavior and actions that are the exact opposite of what Jesus taught?Jesus told us to render unto Caesar (aka the government)what is Caesar’s (pay your taxes).Jesus told us to love one another as Jesus loves us;not blame,shame, attack,and kill people who are different than us.When Je- sus was punished unfairly and then tortured and killed for / the amusement of a crowd,Jesus did not tell His followers to exact revenge and kill the evil doers;Jesus said,“For- give them Father for they know not what they do.” We have a new President and there will be a peaceful transfer of power,even though there are domestic terrorists working hard right now to overthrow our US Constitution- ally created system of government.If you cannot accept that,then look in the mirror and recognize you are not a patriotic American.Most of us were raised to play fair,take responsibility when we broke something,and be a good sport,and our leaders must also play fair,be accountable, and be good sports,especially when it is hard,or they do not deserve to lead. The Founders created a check and balance system in our government so that we might be protected from the tyr- anny that rules so many other countries.It is a balance of 3 branches of government who provide obstacles and delays in the process of governing to slow things down,to the great frustration of almost everyone who wants to make change.If you want to pick up weapons and overthrow that system,you are not a patriotic American.Regulations and rules were developed to help us function better;for in- stance,driving on the same side of the road,not to oppress your freedom to drive however you choose,but to prevent putting other people’s lives at risk.If you believe in “Law and Order”and that “Blue Lives Matter”,you do not attack police officers paid to protect the Capitol building.This is important context.If you want a leader who is arrogant, disregards the Golden rule of doing “unto others as you would have them do unto you”,and who puts his ego ahead of what is best for the nation,then you do not want to be an American. We The People have recently elected someone who does practice Christianity and honors the US Constitution,af- ter four years of enduring the damage done by someone who did not.America is now first only in the number of deaths from COVID 19,while other countries have been more successful in managing through the simple courtesy of wearing a mask in public,socially distancing,and wash- Please See Letter -Page 3 Letters Welcome The Enterprise Record welcomes letters from its readers on topics of local,state,national or inter- national issues.An effort will be made to print all letters,provided they are not libelous,vulgar or in poor taste.The editor reserves the right to edit letters for grammar and for space.Letters should include the name and address of the writer and a signature.A telephone number,not to be published,is requested.

J j DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 -3 The Literary Corner:Renegade Writers Guild Our New Year By Gaye Hoots The year we just said goodbye to challenged us,and we hope the year we just ushered in will be one we can share without the fear of COVID dictating our interactions with others and affecting our economy.Hopefully,the vaccine will help,and like flu,we will feel it is less of a threat. My new year involves a change of residence,but the transition is a slow one.I am enjoying the condo in Orien- tal and have made changes to make it mine.More renova- tion is planned for later if I can afford it.My family came down with me,so I am learning to live with others after liv- ing alone for years.The twins love it here,and they make me happy,but they require a lot of attention and times two. They also give a lot of love,and I will miss them,their brother,and mother when they return home. Yesterday I learned of another friend who tested positive for COVID,but she reported mild symptoms and seems to be recovering.I read of the death of someone who was a part of our childhood.His mother was my second-grade teacher,his father a friend of my father’s,and he was a baseball player who had a shot at becoming a pro.He and his brother are part of our childhood memories.He wrote a book about growing up in Advance that I enjoyed reading. Facebook keeps me updated on friends and events.My hope is that our children will be able to return to school safely,that all business will be able to operate safely and that our economy will be able to support the enormous debt we are saddled with.Hopefully,churches will be able to resume their schedules,and the facilities for the homeless will be able to reopen. The old saying about not missing the water until the well goes dry applies here.Many things we take for granted can and did cease to exist.My sister and her husband got their COVID shots this week,and others got a stimulus check. My prayer is that each of these will have the desired effect. If not,I will be spending much of my time looking at the waterway and sailboats,reading,writing a little,and appre- elating the time with loved ones and Facebook contact with friends.The years seem to pass faster as I get older,and I want to savor each day. Lincoln Lineage By Marie Craig I’ve always been interested in “coincidences”and won- der if there are actually any random things that just hap- pen.About 1996 I was volunteering one afternoon at a Family History Center between Hayesville and Murphy, North Carolina.We did not have a lot of patrons come to our center to research their genealogy,but this afternoon two men who did not know each other arrived at the same time.I showed each of them how to use our computers and our software that linked to millions of records of deceased ancestors. They each worked quietly and once in a while said something to the other.They took a quick break,and one of them said,“I’m kin to Abraham Lincoln.” The other man said,“I am,too.” The first said,“His father is buried right over here in Murphy.” Man Two answered,“No,he’s not.He’s buried in Pleas- ant Grove,Illinois.” Man One replied indignantly,“Abram Enloe is Abra- ham Lincoln’s father,and he’s buried at Harshaw Chapel Cemetery on the hill above Murphy,a few miles from here. Nancy Hanks was a young woman working for the Enloes and became pregnant by Abram.Mrs.Enloe threw her out of the house,and she eventually married Thomas Lincoln. Some legends say before the birth of Abraham and some say after.” The two men continued to argue,and I wondered if I was to be a referee of a wrestling match.Finally,they just stopped speaking to each other and sullenly went back to work. I’ve wondered about that discrepancy since the argu- ment.Research shows that many people believe this Mur- phy connection.One Website article is located at https:// www.carolinacountry.com/carolina-stories/carolina-peo- ple/was-abraham-lincoln-bom-in-westem-north-carolina. Comments below this article show relatives who have been Letter... Continued From Page 2 washing hands frequently.If you cannot believe that I lov- ingly suggest it is because you are getting your informa- tion from sources designed to manipulate you into doing the dirty work of those who want to destroy the “American experiment in democracy”. I ask you to become a patriot,and take the time find out what is true,from reliable sources of information,and not just take the word of others who have a vested interest in manipulating you for their selfish gain.Anyone who pub- licly demonizes other people is either terribly misinformed or has a selfish motive for attacking those other people. I believe we are all children of God,and even though we do not always get along,we are all family.When asked what he thought should be done about a woman who com- mitted adultery,Jesus said,“Let you who is without sin cast the first stone.”The demonization of others should be an alarm that rallies us to unite,and hold the person engaged in divisive behaviors and making the hateful re- marks accountable.We must insist our elected officials practice integrity and demonstrate a desire to cooperate, respect,and work with others. It is our patriotic duty to remain informed,to do our due diligence to determine what are the facts before elect- ing anyone,and continue to hold them accountable when needed.We all make mistakes and we all can learn to do better if we try.No one knows everything but hopefully we are learning new things every day. Please try to imagine what it is like to be in the other person’s shoes before condemning anyone.If we want to save America,we must learn to listen to the truth,hear each other’s perspective,and work together in cooperation for the benefit of our nation,beginning in our own home, our neighborhood,our county,and state. The truth will set us free. Bonnie D.Clark Harmony told this story and who claim evidence from interviews and DNA tests.There is an organization promoting this and a PBS special about it.A photograph of Abram’s tombstone is at www.findagrave.com.His ID is 5617073,which is a quicker way of finding him in the millions of records. A sentence added by a contributor says:“Alleged natural father of President Abraham Lincoln.” Following this episode,I interviewed a man in his 50s who had a PhD in history and had always lived in Murphy. He told me that as a boy he became interested in this story and went to visit a descendant of Abram Enloe.He said that this man looked exactly like Abraham Lincoln. I’ll let you decide the truth in this matter.My great won- der in all this experience is that two men who claimed the same kinship showed up at the Family History Center at the same time.In my 25 years of volunteering at other centers,I have never had anyone mention this. I Pledge Allegiance By Julie Terry Cartner I picture myself,an intense,obedient child,standing in my kindergarten classroom,curly hair bouncing,probably missing a few teeth,freckles prominently displayed on a, as my grandmother used to say,cute as a button,sunburned nose.Probably wearing a blue,somewhat ruffly dress, white lace topped socks and black patent leather shoes,I would stand somewhat somberly,right hand over my heart, as I earnestly recited the words permanently etched into my memory.Every day,without fail,class started with the reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance. Did I understand it?No.I’m sure I didn’t.Did I say it with the utmost respect and sincerity?Yes.I’m sure I did.As the years progressed,,from kindergarten through elementary school,from junior high through high school, not a day began without reciting those words.As the years passed,the meanings of the words and the overall state- ment became clear to me,and I grew to understand what I was saying. Later,as a teacher,I was charged by my principal to teach the pledge,not just the words but the meaning.My boss demanded that every student who passed through our doors not only could recite and write the pledge,but also that they knew what they were saying,when it was written and by whom,and why it was written.This charge by my principal gave me the opportunity to pull out the words I had recited for so many years,break them down into un- derstandable sections and to really think about them again. And so,I began: I,me,the individual,thinking for myself.Pledge,prom- ise,vow,swear with the greatest of honor.Allegiance, loyalty,fidelity,commitment,faithfulness.To the flag of the United States of America,the flag,a symbol of our country...am I pledging my allegiance to a flag?No,I am pledging my allegiance to what the flag represents:the blood,sweat and tears of generations of humans:soldiers, yes,but also farmers and fishermen,businessmen and politicians,teachers,doctors,lawyers,lumberjacks and riverboat captains,husbands,wives,sons and daughters, the rich,the poor,the caregivers and the care-receivers,all of American humankind,coming from all comers of the world in varying hues of color,of faith,of gender.That’s the America I pledge my allegiance to.An America of ac- ceptance,an America that embraces its diversity. And to the Republic for which it stands.Republic:the type of government where the sovereignty,the freedom, the authority,the independence is in the individual rather than the group.Our pledge of allegiance clearly values the individual as a person,a human with a human heart,a hu- man with equal power and authority.Our country values us and requires us to value it above ourselves. One Nation.One.Together.Unified. Under God.Acknowledges there is a higher power than us. Indivisible.Cannot be divided.Of course,it has been divided,but not for long in the scheme of existence.And we learned,as we always learn,we are stronger together, we are stronger when we put forth a unified front,than we can ever be apart. With Liberty and Justice for All.Freedom.Indepen- dence.Fairness.Honesty.Integrity.Impartiality. This year has been challenging in so many ways, COVID-19 non-withstanding.Our country continues to change,to expand,to grow.With growth comes growing pains,but as any expecting mother leams when her body expands to accommodate a growing baby,the growth is necessary for a healthy child.Let us continue to grow,and, in the same way that I took the time to leam what I was saying when I recited the pledge,let us take the time to understand each other,to love one another,to care for one another as we continue to embrace the country of which we are a valuable part.With liberty and justice for all. 2021 Instruction Manual By Stephanie Williams Dean The title of a simple New Year’s instruction booklet might be the movie title,“Eat,Pray,Love.” Let’s take a look at how the word “eat”applies to both physical and spiritual natures.While we typically think of eating as the act of ingesting food for nourishment,eating means so much more in a spiritual context.God’s Word is essential for spiritual nourishment,just as food is to phys- ical nourishment.As spiritual beings,we are as hungry for spiritual food as we are for food that nourishes the physical body.With an inadequate spiritual diet,we set ourselves up for spiritual disease the same way our health declines with- out adequate food.So let’s make sure we eat what supports good health -both physically and spiritually.This year, whether you get it at home through reading your Bible,at church,a friend’s bible study,or wherever -make sure you fill up on God’s words.Try listing new opportunities for hearing more of God’s Word -seminars,retreats,and spiri- tual journeys,or sign up for an online Bible class. Your Creator loves you and desires a deep and intimate relationship with you.Whether you realize it or not,you have a longing deep inside you that yearns for a relationship with Him.The best way to know Him is through prayer. We are like lost sheep without our shepherd.Setting aside a time and place for daily prayer is essential.Without that connection,you miss a vital component of living a joy- ous life.When you establish a practice of praying to God and inviting Him into your life,you are opening your soul to the Holy Spirit.When the Spirit indwells,it’s a mirac- ulous experience,and your life is forever changed.True V conversion leads to a fire in your soul,a passion for God, and enjoyment of the fruits of the Spirit:love,joy,peace, patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness,gentleness,and self-control.If you’re a non-believer,begin by getting to know God.Pray that He will help you grow spiritually.I’m big on listing as it’s helpful -how can I make more time for prayer in my life?Will attending a new church,participat- ing in Bible studies or prayer groups be beneficial?Choose something. And finally,ramp up the love.To love as Jesus loved,we have to be mindful.That means we must develop an aware- ness of our actions.We have to find more ways to connect deeply with our families and those around us.We want to stop living superficial,detached,disconnected existences.I always have to work on this because the more I spiritually mature,the less I need people.But,we can do this by be- ing more approachable,boldly reaching out to others,and being more self-giving.Explore new ways of connecting with your family and loved ones.The people you love - love them better.One good way to get to know your family more intimately is to play a game of Table Talk after din- ner.Each person draws a card and answers the question on the card.Again -list more ways to connect with people you care about and continue to widen your circle. Vaccines By David R.Moore This year many of us will be deciding whether or not to obtain the vaccine for COVID-19 virus. Modem vaccines are traced back to 1796 with Edward Jenner.He observed that dairy workers would not acquire smallpox if they had already been infected with cowpox, a much milder disease.At the time period in London,En- gland,an estimated 1 in 13 people died of smallpox.The cowpox vaccine dramatically reduced smallpox disease. Research from Louis Pasteur in the 1870’s .provided the world a better understanding of germ theory and establish- ing methods that became known as pasteurization.Louis Pasteur showed that effective vaccines can be developed by using weakened or killed bacteria.Pasteur developed vaccines for chicken cholera,anthrax and rabies. Development of vaccines became a matter of national pride,and within a few decades vaccines for tetanus,diph- theria,pertussis,and yellow fever became available.The first flu vaccine was produced in 1945.The vaccine for polio came out in 1955.Vaccines for measles,mumps,and mbella became available in the 1960’s.Because of vacci- nations,many diseases that were once conunon have now become rare or no longer exist in the US. The first generation of vaccines was made from live (but weakened)pathogens or killed pathogens.These attenu- ated vaccines induced the human immune system to pro- duce Killer T-cell,Helper T-cell and antibody responses. However,a weakened pathogen may cause disease in an immunocompromised vaccine recipient. To lower risk to vaccine recipients,a second generation of vaccines was developed using specific antigens (pro- teins)of the pathogen which also induced immune system responses. A third generation of vaccines is being developed using DNA or mRNA that codes for a specific antigen (protein) from a pathogen.The DNA is taken up by the cells whose normal metabolic processes then produce the protein based on the genetic code of the plasmid.Because the protein contains regions that are characteristic of bacteria or virus, they are recognized as being foreign.The human immune system then generates Helper T-cell and antibody respons- es.Once antibodies are available,the body will respond to an attack from a pathogen that has that protein on its sur- face.The antibody will bind to that specific protein for lat- er attack by other parts of the immune system.Antibodies produced by the COVID-19 vaccines may also neutralize the pathogen directly by blocking that particular protein of the virus that is essential for its invasion into a human cell. Recently the FDA has given Emergency Use Authoriza- tion for two vaccines for COVID-19 based upon the cur- rent safety and effectiveness data.My personal thoughts are as follows.First,over the years vaccines have become safer.Second,having a vaccination will enable your body to fight off an infection faster which results in having mild- er symptoms.Third,the spread of the disease will diminish and stop if vaccinations are widespread.So,if you are sick and tired of COVID-19 virus,I would encourage you to consider getting the vaccine when it becomes available. Ten Years vs Twelve Months By Kevin F.Wishon “Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”Though numerous authors of the past have made similar state- ments.Bill Gates recently brought this profound statement back into the public awareness.It’s clever and simple in its message.Previously,I’ve read that a high percentage of people are terrible at estimating how long it takes to com- plete a project.I feel that this issue is what the above quote is trying to tackle. Visualize our estimating habit as though we live inland hundreds of miles,yet we plan a drive time of one hour to reach the coast.When we look at this,it’s clear this plan isn’t going to work.While this example may be ex- treme,it’s not so ridiculous when we consider the remod- el projects,schoolwork,or skills learning we’ve woefully time-managed.Most often,it takes more time than we ever imagined or planned. Giving ourselves space and time to succeed is crucial for any kind of accomplishment.To give a student a good chance of success,the schools and colleges have a system involving many years of planned education.But,once we are on our own,we must leam to schedule personal en- deavors for ourselves.After some time,we become good at scheduling the regular chores,tasks,and errands.So,it’s not the common stuff,it’s the bigger objectives that give us a problem. When it comes to projects or challenges,the quote above is saying,“Stop giving yourself too little time to complete big,life altering tasks.”Instead,we may need to give our- selves five or ten years when planning greater challenges. By giving ourselves the time,we see that our goals are gen- uinely achievable.As we proceed into the first few days of 2021,I hope you will consider this quote.Give your dreams the time and space they deserve.If we properly time-manage the greater goals in life,who knows what is achievable? k rt 4 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 lanath Davie High students and presenters at Zoom Lunch&Learn meetings on Feast on Agricuiture (left)and The Talon digital newspaper. Lunch &Learn goes digital at Davie High In its eighth year,the Davie High STEM Lunch &Learn series is off to a strong start for the 2020- 2021 school year. Nine guests interacted with more than 250 partici- pants,and two more Lunch &Learns wee on the calen- dar before semester’s end. Facilitated by a commit- tee of STEM Center teach- ers,the purpose of the series is to give students in the center many opportunities to interact with profession- als,education leaders,and accomplished peers.The goal is to help broaden stu- dents’understanding of the choices in front of them as they think about themselves post-Davie High School. So far this year: •STEM CTE teachers, Jesse Ledbetter and Sandie Hinkle,presented Feast on Agriculture,a cross-cur- ricular introduction to the sweet potato. •Student journalists, Madelyn Kenney,Rachel Quance,Aria Tronsen and Hazel Marion presented details about The Weekly Talon,a student-run,digital publication. •Entrepreneur of Y'all Sauce,Josh McGee,shared his experiences with start- ing his own business. •Journalist of Gaston Talks,Coleman Montgom- ery spoke about becoming a member of the media at a young age. •Public Health Con- sultant,Dennis Harrington shared details about his long career in public health and safety. Sophomore,Stepha- nie Chiquito said:“I think L&Ls are a great experi- ence to give you insight on different career paths that you may have not thought about.This year I have only attended one L&L;it was for Y'all Sauce.What stood out to me was how he made his own business out of scratch and explained to us that consistency is key to having a business of your own.He gave us an idea of how a day in his life is.” Elijah Kennedy,junior, said:“I have attended about six L&Ls so far,and I have learned a lot from them.At the Universal Technical In- stitute last year,I learned that the demand for techni- cian jobs is increasing year- ly.That caught my attention because those jobs didn’t require heavy education after high school.I chose to go to this L&L because I have an interest in automo- tive.” According to sopho- more,Avery Yount:“Lunch &Learns are great oppor- tunities to learn something new.I've attended some ranging from graphic de- sign,engineering,service projects,business,and journalism.I want to be an architect after college.So I attended one on civil en- gineering and I got to see the layouts of cities like Winston-Salem.Seeing how much detail goes into creating the plans and the logistics behind it was re- ally cool.” Amber McCullough, sophomore,said:“The L&L that stood out to me the most was the Gaston Talks with Coleman Mont- gomery because I got to see how someone close in age to me was able to accom- plish what he wanted to do, which in his case was work- ing on the news.It was very cool to hear about all that he has to do at such a young age and to hear about how successful he has gotten.” “Of the career ones, what stood out to me most was the sentiment that you should do what you want to do with your life and be pas- sionate about what you do. It inspired me and helped me look towards the future, both college and beyond, with the hope that I can do something I will enjoy too.I chose several of the Lunch &Learns because they just sounded interest- ing to me,and I wanted to find out more.I like that we get the opportunity to learn about different jobs and can explore different paths we might take,”said Emma Green,sophomore. Student presenter and one of the Weekly Talon leaders.Aria Tronsen said: “I wanted to host my Lunch &Learn along with other leaders of the club because I wanted to give others a chance to express their in- dividuality in a fun,relaxed, judgement-free place.There are a lot of people interested in journalism,photography, and design,but it is hard to have a place to start if there is no audience for your work.” As a result of the hurdles Covid presented last school year,STEM teachers had to get busy planning virtual opportunities.In previous years,guest speakers came to campus and students at- tended during Smart Block. However,now students interact with guests via Google Meet on Wednes- days. Two Lunch &Learns occurred in August before school started. Agricultural Sciences teacher,Jesse Ledbetter,in- teracted with 16 students in his Don’t Worry.Bee Hap- py!Lunch &Learn about the importance of honey- bees and beekeeping. David Stevenson,admis- sions counselor from Ca- tawba College,discussed the general college admis- sions process and answered the questions of the 21 stu- dents attending his Lunch & Learn. Teachers Tani Caudle (chair),Megan Baker,Jaime Johnson,Jesse Ledbetter, Ty Woodring,Shane Young, and Robin Seamon serve on the STEM committee that facilitates the Lunch & Learn series. nnMAL mBsmmmmt mummim sttLCSi.SBBaim atsimuumm^ CX HVAC License#13736 336-3«5<«a07 71>«4B33-^4777 H69487 DESTINATION DEFERRED INTEREST IF PAID IN FULL WITHIN 6 MONTHS' $149 Minimum purchase required.Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the purchase balance is not paid in full s _ within 6 months or if you make a late payment.451,' ^MINIMUM MONTHLY PAYMENTS REQUIRED.APR:28.8%.Minimum john o public Finance Charge:$2.00.Terms are subject to change.

As owner of Perkins Roofing in Mocksville,Jesse treats each roof as if it was on his own home.If it isn’t good enough for him,it will not be good enough for you. That is the way Jesse treats each roofing job and customer.His work and integrity speak for itself. Jesse,a Reidsville native,became interested in roofing when he was just 13 years old.At age 17, the summer before graduating from high school,he began helping his brother in the roofing business.Af- ter graduating the next year,Jesse moved to Davie County and has been here since. After years of working for other roofers,Jesse de- cided it was time to go out on his own. So,in the fall of 1997,he started Perkins Roofing. “I have been roofing most of my life and that’s what I love to do,”Jesse explains.“I started out with a lad- der,hatchet and pick-up truck.” Now,along with roofing,Jesse has added vinyl sid- ing to his line of work. “I work with several local contractors on new homes and do tear offs for older homes that need a new roof. I have done some repair work but we just don’t have that many bad storms around here to do too much damage for roof repairs,”Jesse notes. Jesse takes a great deal of pride in his work and will work however many hours and days it takes to get the job finished and done right. “I keep my business somewhat small.That way I can be on the job to see what goes on and make sure the job is completed like it would be for someone in my family.” Perkins Roofing also enjoys giving back to the com- munity. They are involved in various fund raisers including the law enforcement and rescue squad.

Winter means it’s time for soup,stew,chowder,chiii Soup season’s upon us -as well as steamy stews,chow- ders,and chili.Soup is the food group that includes them all. What’s generally referred to as soup can be made quick- ly with solid ingredients and seasoned liquid such as water or broth.Stews,on the other hand,are simmered over time in a covered pot,have less liquid,and include large,solid meat pieces.Creamy chowders introduce milk or cream, which help thicken the dish,and are full of chunky meats, usually seafood,with veggies. And then there’s chili -in a league of its own.With thick,stew-like meats,tomatoes,beans,and,of course, spicy seasonings -chili can get hot and super personal. Soup gets better when topped with a few of those highly seasoned,small oyster crackers.The vintage recipe works well with saltines,too.You-can’t do better than serving a basket of seasoned,toasted breadsticks alongside the thick stews and chowders. When you’re trying out a new recipe,add essential ingredients first.As far as seasonings go -ei- ther use what’s recommended or season to your taste -testing as you go.A long list of herbs can be daunting -and sometimes less is more. No matter what recipe you choose to try,there’s one thing we can agree on -there’s something soul-warming about a bowl full of steamy goodness and a large soup spoon from which to slurp it. Be warned -etiquette books say it’s bad manners to make noise while eating -beg forgive- ness later.

Last year as a sophomore,Hud- son was deep on the bench,scoring 22 points in 17 appearances.In the 2021 season opener against visit- ing South Iredell on Jan.7,Hudson was Mr.Everything,amassing 14 points,six rebounds and five steals and sparking a 59-39 romp. He paced Davie in all three cate- gories.He also converted 7 of 12 field goals. The War Eagles opened the season with two victories in three days,including a thrashing of Carson. “Za’Haree (Maddox)picked up his third foul,we moved Zy to one and on the initial possession he got all the way to the bucket and scored,”coach Mike Absher said. “He may be our best rebounder. That’s effort;he plays so hard. Early in the game,he ran a kid down from behind and picked his pocket.Fourteen,six and five is a pretty good line.” Hudson and senior Justus Tatum have both made titanic improvement since last winter. Tatum,who did not score in any game as a varsity junior,made his first varsity start and responded with seven points,two rebounds and one assist. “After working as hard as Zy worked in the offseason,this is huge for him,”Absher said.“He’s worked really,really hard in the offseason to make himself a better player.Put that with the fact that he plays hard and typically good things happen. “Not to sound like a broken record,but Justus has put in a lot of time.He’ll shoot better than what he shot tonight (2 of 8).Last year, other than giving him very specific defensive assignments,he didn’t play much.For him to step in in his first start and have the night he did,that’s really encouraging.” The War Eagles’lead was 8-6 in the early going,but 3-pointers by Jake Powers and Tate Carney pushed the margin to 14-6.The Vikings closed the half on a 15-8 run and took a 23-22 lead early in the third. That’s when Davie kicked into high gear.Hudson made a steal in the backcourt and converted a Please See Noise -Page B4 Ethan Ratledge gets fouled as he shoots. JV boys stomp first two foes By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record With two new coaches on the sideline,the Davie JV boys basket- ball team picked up South Iredell and Carson and threw them away like an empty McDonald’s bag. In the season opener at home on Jan.7,Davie led South by six at halftime before overwhelming the Vikings in the second half and winning 56-35.The War Eagles absolutely destroyed Carson, 44-23. In the opener,Burke Rosen- baum’s six points lifted Davie to a 12-7 lead at the end of the first quarter.The margin barely grew in the second quarter,the half ending at 22-16. “There was one point where they were outhustling us,”said new JV coach Tim Kenney,who is being assisted by Kevin Revels. “They were getting every loose ball and every close rebound.They were just going after it more than we were.Coach Revels challenged them to rebound better,and after that we donpnated the glass.” The War Eagles blew it open with a 17-5 run in the third.Hunter Davis was the main man with nine points in the third.At 39-21,South was cooked. “We had a lot of energy,”Ken- ney said.“We moved the ball ex- tremely well.We had one sequence where we had four passes and I bet not one of the passes was more than six feet.It was boom,boom, boom and a layup.They look for each other all the time,which is very nice.” Davis was far and away the star with 18 points,14 rebounds, three blocks and three steals.He converted five of six free throws. “He definitely has potential,” Kenney said. Nine other War Eagles deliv- ered points,including a 10-point, four-steal effort from Coleman Lawhon.Rosenbaum had six points.Zeb Pilcher had five points and four assists.Ethan Ratledge had five points and four steals. Ian Koontz had four points.Carter Helton and Levi Miller had three points each,and Brodie Smith had two. “You don’t know who’s going to shine at any given moment,” Kenney said.“We have a bunch of kids who are capable of playing the game,and you don’t know where that beam of light is going to come from next.Burke had a really good first quarter.Hunter had a great third quarter.Coleman had a really good fourth quarter.From a coach- ing standpoint,it’s comforting to know that you’ve got different guys who can step up.” Davie shot 35 percent from the floor (16 of 45).It did a lot of damage at the free-throw line, hitting 20 of 30. ••• The game two days later against visiting Carson saw Davie deliver Please See Stomp -Page B5 Za’Haree Maddox slashes to the hoop against South Iredell.Photos by Mark Floyd Davie’s all-time best pitcher dead at age 74 By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record Two of the most spectacular baseball talents Davie County has ever seen died in a span of three days. Brack Bailey,who grew up in Advance and lived in Bermuda Run during his retirement years, passed away on Jan.2 at age 83. John Parker,who grew up in Cool- eemee and was living on Duke Street in Cooleemee,passed away on Jan.4 at age 74. Both are Davie County Athletic Hall of Earners,Parker getting named to the first class in 2002. John Thomas Parker is the best pitcher in Davie High history with some space in between.He carried the Davie Rebels all the way in the 1965 Western North Carolina High School Activities Association playoffs,he was the Philadelphia Phillies’second-round selection in the inaugural Major League Base- ball draft in 1965 and he made the 40-man spring training roster four consecutive years before retiring in 1972. “Big John”certified his Davie royalty on May 21,1965.It was an incredible forever memory, Davie hosting Shelby with the WNCHSAA title on the line.The Golden Lions,the 1964 WNCH- SAA champions,were undefeated. It’s hard to imagine how anyone could be better on the mound than Parker.Shelby countered with Billy Champion,who was as big in his world as Parker was in his. In the semifinals.Champion struck out 21 in a 4-0,10-inning win at Hickory.Less than a month later, Parker and Champion were both drafted by the Phillies.Champion, selected in the third round,went on to pitch eight years in the major leagues. “The road to Rich Park was dirt and we had to delay the game about 30 minutes so the dust could settle,”the late Bill Peeler,Davie’s baseball coach from 1957-70,said in 2002. “When we were taking infield, we had to stop because we couldn’t see the ball,”Joe Mando,a 1965 freshman who started in center field,said in ‘02.“I’ve never seen a crowd (2,000-plus fans)like it. It was the damdest thing I’ve ever seen.” Davie scratched out an un earned run in the bottom of the first inning.Earl Shoaf drew a leadoff walk.Gary Markland bounced back to the mound,but Champi- on’s throw to second was wild,the center fielder slipped as he tried to retrieve it and Shoaf scored. That’s all the support Parker needed.Davie won an all-time classic 1-0.When the 39th out was in the books,the Rebels ran around in unrestrained joy and carried Peeler and Parker off the field. Shelby finished 12-1;Davie 13-3. “All we heard was Billy Cham- pion,Billy Champion,”Parker said in ‘02.“He could throw like a devil,boy.Shelby was a big school compared to Davie.That was a big thrill to win something like that.We came out in those oT baggy uniforms,they had those tight fittin’ones and they looked at us and thought this is a piece of cake.It was one of those nights adrenaline and a little bit of talent helped out.” Champion (6-foot-4,188 pounds)hurled a two-hitter with 12 strikeouts and three walks, allowing singles to Shoaf and No. Please See Parker -Page B3 B2 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 Advance Family Dental Dr.Amy Li Dr.David Barabe 149 Yadkin Valley Rd.,Ste 101 Advance,NC 27006 336-998-1076 www.advancefamilydentist.coin Bhck Sand Company Sand,Gravel &Landscape Materids “Since 1927“ Residential &Commercial Mark &Cindy Shoctf,Owners Monday-Frida}'7:30-5:30 •Saturday 8:00-3:00 PICK UP OR DELIVERY 745 W.Clemmonsville Road •Winston-Salem,NC \vww.blacksandco.com (336)788-6411 ^COLLETTE LMJ Art&Ffaniingdnc. 120 Box,W(xxi Village Drive Mocksville.NC 27028 U¥m 336-751-2296 Email:ColletteFraming@aol.com "'T'' i' ■Pt- 336-9094042 CBEMSHAW raiNTIRC COMPARy.LLC’ A Prt^isienAlLeek With A Pcncmai LSaberl.DAVIE NURSING & REHABILITATION CENTER 498 Madison Rd.|Mocksville,NC 336-751-3535 Inquire today about our NEW State-of-the-artfadlity that will offer Short-Term Rehab,Respite &Private Pav Suites. saberhealth.com "Spath V ‘9i' A A Tradition Since 1975 140 N.Clement St.,Mocksville,NC (336 )751-5820 I—J A or unto whomsoever much is given,of him shall te much required:and to wM)m men have committed much, of him they will ask the more,j • (Luke 12:48) This scripture message broughttoyouby these businesses who encourage you to worship at the church ofyour choice.

Continued From Page B1 9 batter Mando.Parker (6- 5,190)shoved a two-hitter with 14 Ks and zero walks. Three balls left the infield against Parker. Peeler said:“The coach from Shelby before the game said:T’ve heard a :lot about your Parker boy. WeTl see how good he is against my 3-4-5 batters.’ Well,John struck them out nine times.” Mando:“It was real- ly something to be in the outfield and watch.I had a bird’s eye view to watch John pitch.We’d heard about Champion.The only thing I kept thinking was he can’t be any better than John.” Parker:“Somebody told me there were like 10 or 12 college scouts and seven or eight pro scouts there.” “You could see John rise to the occasion against Champion,”David Robert- son,a 1966 Davie graduate who started two years at sec- ond base,said in ‘02.“They were expecting to take it. I’m telling you,Parker put on a show.Two pitchers of that caliber coming together in this part of the country. I’ve not seen it since.” ••• Peeler knew he had someone special in his midst when Parker,as a freshman in 1962,held powerhouse Asheboro to one run over six innings.Davie lost in the last inning,3-2. Peeler:“The Asheboro coach said:‘Is that kid a freshman?’He couldn’t understand a kid that young throwing like he did.When we left,Asheboro was but there taking batting practice because it upset them that a 14-year-old set them down.” During that sophomore year in 1963,Parker threw a no-hitter and struck out 15 in a three-hitter against Mooresville.With John and big brother Grimes Parker combining for an 11-0 re- cord,Davie (13-2)clinched its first North Piedmont Conference title with three games to spare. J.Parker was also a top- notch athlete in football and basketball.He started at varsity quarterback for two years and was all-NPC as a 1964 senior,when he led Davie to 7-3 and runner-up in the league.He made the all-NPC squad twice in i basketball.The 6-5 center pounded Troutman with 33 points,and Davie captured the NPC title in 1963-64. “If baseball hadn’t en- tered the picture,John would have been an excellent quar- terback in college,”the late Jack Ward,Davie’s football coach from 1956-67,said in ‘02.“John was a little slow I but he had natural ability, r,He was real hard-nosed,a real competitor and a good thrower.He threw a soft, easy ball to catch.” ••• After enduring a series of low-scoring losses and go- ing 6-5 in 1964,Parker tor- tured opponents as a senior. Younger generations might have trouble digesting this: In two games against East Rowan,the 1964 NPC champion,Parker struck out 36.He had 17 Ks in one game against North Rowan. In a 4-0 no-hitter against Mooresville,he piled up 17 Ks and permitted three balls in fair territory.His .first three starts were two no-hitters and a one-hitter. He allowed one baserunner in a 1-0 no-hitter over North Rowan.The one batter who reached?Parker picked him off before throwing the next pitch.Parker’s 3-0 no-hit- ter over Children’s Home spoiled Melvin Hughes’ three-hitter. West Rowan put its ace, Randy Turman,and its 6-0 record on the line against ■If DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 -B3 John Parker was an imposing pitcher.He was an all-conference quarterback.At right,he trains in rookie league in 1965. Davie.Parker fanned 12 in a 1-0 Davie win.Robertson doubled twice and scored the only run in a game that lasted one hour,10 minutes. “I hated to hit against him because you didn’t get much batting practice,”Norman “Nemo”Woodward,a 1963 senior,said in ‘02.“And he would just sit out there and grin at you.” Mando:“When we took batting practice,coach Peel- er would have to tell John to slow down.You always knew unless one of us re- ally messed up,we had a win.After the fact,I think we all would say you could have put John,a catcher and maybe one fielder out there, and that’s all you needed. He was just that dominant.” Peeler:“John had a cur- veball that would drop off the table,he could throw a knuckle and he had perfect control.John was 6-5 and when he came off the mound, he was on top of you.In that day and time,you pitched seven innings on Tuesday and again on Friday.He was big and strong and his father (Grimes Parker Sr.)would say 14 innings is not much for a week.(Catcher)Ken Roger’s left hand would be an inch-and-a-half thicker after games.” “When he had a real good curveball,he was almost unhittable,”Boger,a three- year starter and an all-NPC selection in 1965,said in ‘02.“It was a pleasure to catch him.” “My favorite memory of John Parker was getting to catch him when he was warming up in the bullpen getting ready to pitch,”Dub Potts said last week.“My hand stayed swollen all spring during my sopho- more year.” Davie cemented its sec- ond NPC title in three years with two games left in the regular season.In the North- South Piedmont champi- onship game,Parker blew away 13 batters and walked one as Davie defeated Al- bemarle 4-2.That set up the historic battle against Champion and Co. “We would put a sponge inside the mitt,and my hand would still swell after a day or two,”Phil Peeler, Shelby’s catcher in 1965, told the Shelby Star in 2017.“(Champion)prob- ably threw it 95-97 (mph) and was just so accurate.He also had a knuckleball you wouldn’t believe.Batters could not hit him.” “(Champion)was one of the hardest-throwing pitch- ers to ever come through here,”Elmore Hill,a Gas- ton County Sports Hall of Earner,told the Shelby Star in‘17. Parker’s final numbers were mind-boggling.He went 11-0 in 11 starts.He struck out 156 ai^walked 25 in 82 2/3 innings.He gave up 23 hits and seven runs (five earned)for a 0.42 ERA.The all-state hurler finished his career with four no-hitters and six one-hitters. Oh,yeah,in an American Legion doubleheader at Lexington in 1964,Park- er won both games while throwing all 14 innings. “You couldn’t imagine somebody as young as John was with that kind of con- trol,and his fastball was 92 or 93 (mph),”the late Dan Marion,a 1965 senior,said in ‘02. “John has a major league curveball right now,”Wash- ington Senators scout Tex Millard said in 1965.“He’s potentially as fine a pitcher as a scout will see.He’s got all the ingredients of a future major leaguer.” ••• The Phillies drafted Park- er and Champion in June 1965 and both reportedly received signing bonuses of better than $10,000.They were sent to rookie league in Huron,S.D.,and assigned to the Single-A Spartanburg Phillies in 1966. “Momma (Hazel)packed all of his clothes and got everything ready for him,” John’s sister,Patty Look- abill,who passed away in 2017,said in ‘02.“In a week or so,he calls mother and tells her all his underwear is pink.She said:‘Well, John,what’s wrong with your underwear?’He said:‘I don’t know.’He had washed it with his shirts that had red sleeves,so he had to wear pink underwear with all those guys.” The transition from high school to pro ball bare- ly made him flinch.After having his 1966 season (2-0 record in three starts) interrupted by a military obligation as a member of the Army Reserves,Parker showed why the Phillies drafted him before a guy named Nolan Ryan. In 1967,the righthander went 17-3 with a 1.76 ERA and 14 complete games for a Spartanburg team that won 25 straight and attracted more than 6,000 fans to some games.He'was the Topps Player of the Month in May in the Western Chr- olinas League after starting 10-0 with eight complete games.Later,after Spartan- burg finished a gaudy 80-43, Topps named him to the National All-Class A team as Pitcher of the Year. He was on Philadelphia’s 40-man roster by age 20, and he beat Baltimore twice in spring training.There were no doubts. “In spring training at Clearwater,El.,Philadelphia manager Gene Mauch told Parker that he was the best young pitching prospect in the Phillie system,”Spartap burg President Pat Williams said in June 1967. In a higher level of Sin- gle A for Portsmouth (Va.), Parker went 4-0 with a 1.93 ERA.After winning 26 of his first 29 decisions,he went 10-5 for the Ports- mouth Tides.After getting traded to the Washington Senators organization,he went 7-1 as Burlington’s long reliever. “I don’t choke when I get men on base,”Parker said then.“For example,at Gastonia,they got the bases loaded twice with no outs, but we beat them 1-0.I’ll have to admit that I am a little lucky,too.” He was promoted to Tri- pie A in 1969,going 4-2 for the Denver Bears.He made four spring training rosters, two each with the Phi lli es and Senators.He felt certain The Show was just around the comer. Parker:“After the year I had in Spartanburg,the report on me was he needs to be in the major leagues. (Spartanburg manager)Dick Teed even told me that.(But Mauch and the Phillies blew a six-and-a-half game lead with 12 games left in 1964) because he brought up some Triple A guys.So Mauch was down on rookies.” Parker climbed to the major-league doorstep time and again,but things didn’t turn out as planned.His arm ran out of juice and he retired in 1972. “One step,”he said.“I had the key in the door but couldn’t get it unlocked. Cortisone shots here,cor- tisone shots there.They’d shoot you up before you pitched and that just doesn’t get it.I wish I hadn’t had so much arm trouble and a lot of other things wouldn’t have happened -but I thor- oughly enjoyed it. “I’d be nice to be 18 years old with the expan- sion teams.Back then there were eight in the American League and eight in the National League,and it was tough.They told us three out of 100 got to the big leagues. If I was 18 now -and I’m not a bragger,believe me I’m not -1 could pitch in the (30-team)big leagues.” Although Parker fell short of every ballplayer’s wildest dream,he enjoyed incredible moments with guys who became well known. He used to carry Bill Madlock,a major leaguer from 1973-87,to and from the ballpark.He struck out Frank Howard,who played in the majors from 1958-73. He spent spring training with future Phillies great Ritchie Allen.Ted Wil- liams,arguably the greatest hitter of all time,was the Senators’manager when Parker played for their top farm team (Denver Bears). He had a 17-3 record for Spartanburg in 1967. Art Fowler,manager Billy Martin’s pitching coach in Oakland and New York,was Parker’s pitching coach for two years.He had extended conversations with Bob Feller,who had six 20-win seasons.(Feller gave Parker a shirt with “Feller”on the back.)No shame here,but he gave up a mammoth ho- mer to future Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt.He batted against Vida Blue,a 200- game winner.Bill White, who would become National League President,played a locker-room prank on Park- er.He lost a Triple-A game 1-0 in the bottom of the ninth on a hit by Kurt Bev- acqua,a major leaguer from 1971-85.He played with or against Carl Yastrzemski (major leaguer from 1961- 83),John Vukavich (1970- 81),Larry Bowa (1970-85), Bob Boone (1972-90),Dave Parker (1973-91)and Gene Tenace (1969-83). Parker’s final pro stats over seven years:46-36 record,3.71 ERA,26 com- plete games in 85 starts, 47 relief appearances,621 innings,604 hits,241 walks and 450 strikeouts. Marion:“He was defi- nitely major league.I mean, you could see it.It was writ- ten all over him.If the Phil- lies wouldn’t have pitched him to death in his first two years and built his body, John would have gone on to the majors.” “He had the size,the ability ...He had it all,”said 1973 Davie graduate Russ Spry in ‘02.“With a few breaks,he was going all the way.In this day and time,he would have gone after half a year in Triple A,if not the big leagues.” Upcoming Games Thursday,Jan.14 North Davie basketball at home vs.Wesleyan Christian Academy at 4/5:15 South Davie basketball at Ellis at 4/5:15 Friday,Jan.15 Davie varsity boys basketball at Glenn at 6 Davie JV boys basketball at home vs.Glenn at 5 Saturday,Jan.16 Davie cross country in Midwest Regional meet at Ivey Redmon Davie swimming at home vs.West Forsyth at 2 Davie varsity basketball at home vs.West Forsyth at 4/6 Davie JV girls/boys basketball at West Forsyth at 12/2 Davie freshman boys basketball at home vs.West For- syth at 2:15 Tliesday,Jan.19 Davie varsity basketball at Reynolds at 5/7 Davie JV boys basketball at home vs.Reynolds at 5 Davie freshman boys basketball at Atkins at 5 Ellis basketball at North Davie at 4/5:15 South Davie basketball at home vs.Wesleyan Christian Academy at 4/5:15 ^-j B4 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.14,2021 Noise...

It was 43-35 when Davie put South away with a 10-0 burst.Maddox penetrated and found a cutting Hudson. Maddox drove for two.Af- ter Luke Williams hit two foul shots,he got a steal and passed to Maddox,who dished it to Hudson for a layup.Taylor got a steal and hit Maddox,who kicked it to Williams for a layup.At 53-35,South was done. “In the second half, we had a lot more energy, better communication and the press shut them down, which led to some easy baskets,”Absher said. Maddox had nine points and seven assists.Williams had eight points and four rebounds.Powers had six points on two shots, both 3-pointers.Carney had five points.Taylor had five points and four boards. Blake Walser had three points,three rebounds and two steals.Zy’mier Lewis had two points. “After what we’ve done to get to this point,it was really neat to see them get to compete and play hard for 32 minutes,”Absher said. “It was fun.” Notes:South is coming off a 10-15 season.Davie’s record was the exact oppo- site....The War Eagles only shot 31 percent in the first half (9 of 29),compared to South’s 56 percent,but they offset that by attempting 13 more shots than South.Da- vie was better in the second half (13 of 32).“We had one possession where we got five shots,”Absher said. “We got 37 (points)in the second half.Our shooting will only get better as we move forward.”...South missed 14 of 20 field goals in the second half. Davie 69,Carson 29 From a shooting perspec- tive,Maddox and Williams underperformed against South,going a combined 5 of 21.They were both pro- lific in the 40-point pummel- ing of the visiting Cougars on Jan.9. After going 3 of 11 in the opener,Williams hit 6 of 9 shots,including 3 of 5 3 s,to score 15 points.He added five assists. “It was good to see him make shots,”Absher said. “He relaxed and got in the flow of the game.He’s going to be a very important piece to what we’ve got to do this year.” Maddox,the creative point guard who has offers from DePaul,High Point and Penn State,went 2 of 10 in the opener.His answer was 15 points and four re- bounds on 6-of-lO shooting. In one stretch he made six straight shots. “It was good to see him score better around the bas- ket,”Absher said.“He did a great job of keeping the tempo up and attacking.We can create some havoc on defense,and he’s a spark- plug for that.” But the early key was one of the bigs.Taylor came out smoking,hitting his first three shots,all around the basket,to stake Davie to a 9-4 lead. “That set the tone for how we played offensively,” Absher said.“We did some high-low and he finished down there.” While Williams and Maddox paced the scoring, Davie got points from 12 guys.Taylor had six.Hud- son had five to go with three assists and three rebounds. Tatum also had five.Lew- is had four points,three rebounds and two blocks. Owen Byers had four points and three assists.Caleb Earnhardt had four points. Carney had three points. Walser had three points,five rebounds and two assists.JT Bumgarner had three points. And Alex Summers had two points and five rebounds. “Those 14 kids,what- ever combination we put out there,played so well together,”he said.“They were very unselfish.That was fun to watch.” Lewis is a load inside. A senior,he did not play basketball the past three years,this being his first hoops action since South Davie.He’s made quite an impression on Absher.He got his points,rebounds and blocks in a late flurry. “He made a commitment in the offseason,”Absher said.“Down the road in some of these big CPC matchups,maybe there’s a time he could step in there and do something big for us.” Notes:Carson flopped after opening its season with a 51-46 win over South Rowan....Davie carved out a 41-15 halftime lead. ...Davie shot 53 percent in the first half (17 of 32)and 49 percent for the game (29 of 59)....The Cougars’29 points tied an all-time low for offensive output.(They lost 53-29 to Northwest Cabarrus in 2014-15.)This was their most lopsided loss since 87-43 to Statesville in 2012-13....Carson only returned two varsity players.

The majorly talented junior from East Forsyth put her team on her back and carried it to a 3-2 comeback win over Davie on Jan.4. The Central Piedmont Conference Tournament was originally going to be the top four teams,but since West Forsyth (5-5 CPC record)was quarantined,the tournament was trimmed to three teams -No.1 Reagan (10-0),No.2 Davie (7-2)and No.3 East (4-4).The Davie-East semifi- nal was held at Davie,while Reagan had a bye before the championship. The scores were 25-19,25-18,22-25,22-25,8-15. After falling behind early,Davie rallied to win the first set.“Ali Angell went on a good serving run and a couple of balls fell our way,”coach Amber Brandon said. Davie really found its groove in the second set.“We were in complete control,”she said.“We played really well.” The War Eagles were 7-0 against Boothe,they dominated East in three sets on Nov.4 and they seemed ready to defeat East for the 17th consecutive time,especially after they jumped to a 12-5 lead in the third set. What happened?East’s dynamic superhero took over. The 6-foot commitment to the University of Tennessee has absurd power,and Davie had no answer. “They had a middle get injured (in the third set),probably their second-best hitter,”Brandon said.“From that point on, it was all Kadynce.She probably hits 70 percent of their balls in a normal game.That number probably went from 70 to 90 percent.She got in a rhythm and we couldn’t stop her. If she gets on a roll hitting,the rest of her game improves.” East scored 20 of the last 30 points in the third set.It pulled out another three-point decision in the fourth set. Davie fell apart in the fifth set. “In the fourth and fifth sets,Boothe hurt us more from the serving line than anywhere,”Brandon said.“Any time we’ve played against her,our conversation before the game has been she’s the type of kid who is going to get her kills on the front row.You just have to do your job when we get to swing first.In the past,we’ve done a really good job of managing her on the back row,and this night we just couldn’t.It’s the first time we’ve had trouble with her serve. “It was out of bounds,but she hit a ball down the line that was the hardest ball I’ve ever seen hit in a high school volleyball game.” Davie was also undone by its passing game. “It just wasn’t our night,”she said.“Elizabeth Tilley had a really good game,but honestly that was about it.Aimee Loj and Kiah Mathis have both been on a good streak in the middle.We just couldn’t pass the ball well enough to get the ball to them.We have three middles who are some of the best in the conference,and up until Monday night we had passed well enough to utilize that.” Notes:As much as Brandon and Davie wanted a third shot at Reagan,the only team to beat Davie before the second meeting with East,it was a harmless loss.The CPC (^xfberts (funeral Q^enice "The Best that Heart and Hands Can Give" 701 North Main St.3001 Old Greensboro Rd.

After the dust had settled, or more accurately the mud, Davie had produced four all-conference performers and junior Caleb Young had advanced to the regional meet Jan.16.Unfortunately, the War Eagle teams failed to advance. For the boys,the team race went exactly as script- ed.West Forsyth captured the title with 30 points to easily outdistance Reagan (54).Reynolds (61)took third behind a,quartet of seniors.Davie (73)placed fourth.East Forsyth and Glenn did not register team scores.By virtue of their top-three finishes.West, Reagan and Reynolds ad- vanced to the Midwest Re- gional. In the individual race. West’s senior duo of Jack- son Nichols and Jeremy Eldredge claimed the top two spots,with Nichols crossing the line first in 16:39.Davie’s Young was sixth overall in 17:16 and advanced to regionals by placing among the top 12 individuals. Teammates Owen Sulec- ki (17:41)and Nate Brooks (17:51)placed 13th and 14th,respectively,to bare- ly miss out on qualifying. The top 14 finishers earned all-conference accolades, thus giving Davie three all-conference designees. Andrew Brown was the next Davie finisher as he claimed 17th in 18:09.Se- bastien McEwen rounded out the Davie scoring in 23rd place with a time of 18:40.Cole Swade finished 26th (19:40),while Reese Yount made his season de- but in 27th (19:50). “The team race ended up just as the regular season suggested it might,”said coach Rob Raisbeck.“We thought we had a chance to beat Reynolds but we were going to have to run a perfect race to do so. Unfortunately,we came up just short.Caleb and Owen ran outstanding races and Owen even turned in an eight-second PR.He missed qualifying for regionals by less than a second.I thought Sebastien also had a good race.He continues to show remarkable improvement. Coach (Jeff)Jones and I were also really proud of Reese.He has been hurt all season,but when Sam (Warner)went down with an injury last week,we decided to put Reese in the line-up -and he did as well as any- body could have expected.” ••• The girls race was dom- inated by Reagan,which claimed the title with 27 points.Runner-up West For- syth (41)and was followed by Reynolds (67).Davie (99)grabbed the fourth spot.East and Glenn did not register team scores. Reagan senior Gwen Parks was the overall winner with a time of 19:17 as she edged her freshman sister, Bronwyn,who crossed the line in 19:28.Davie was led by sophomores Riley Almond,who placed 14th New Pool &Spa Installation Cleaning •Chemicals Opening &Closing Vinyl Liner Replacement Tommy Harris/Owner -Over 30 Yrs.Exp.

Jordyn Cassada nailed down the 28th spot in 27:58. As with the boys,the top three teams advanced to regionals as well as any individuals among the top 12,meaning the Lady War Eagles will not have a repre- sentative at regionals. “The revamped regional qualifying process really worked to our disadvantage since all of the qualifiers were based solely on con- ference finish instead of performance during the regular season and there were no at-large selections,” said Raisbeck.“Both of our boys and girls teams would have easily advanced out of the other two conferences in our region.Riley and Lexie would have been second and third in the Metro Con- ference (Guilford County schools)meet,which was run on the same course we ran.The Southwestern Con- ference (Mecklenburg and Cabarrus county schools) is extremely weak and they had two schools advance with average times over 27:00.That’s almost five minutes slower than we ran on a comparable,if not faster,course.Same with the boys.At least three or four schools advanced to region- als that we were definitely faster than.Hopefully we will return to the traditional qualification method next year and Covid will be a distant memory.” ••• The Davie boys also had five runners compete in a JV meet the morning of the conference championship. Traditionally,the confer- ence meet is not limited in numbers and every runner from each school is allowed to compete.Due to Covid restrictions this season,each school was limited to seven entries in the varsity race. Freshman Will Allard was the top Davie finisher in the JV race as he turned in a personal best time of 19:45 to claim 10th place over- all.Cooper White (21:18) and Wesley Brooks (21:22) finished in 14th and 15th, respectively.Jay Niland crossed the line in 18th place (23:24)and was followed by Matthew Freeland in 28:45. “Will ran a very nice race,”said Raisbeck.“Coach Jones and I considered put- ting him in the lineup in the varsity race,but ended up going with Reese due to his experience as a junior. Both of those guys will be important parts of our team next fall.We were also very pleased with Cooper today. He has been injured for a full year and is potentially a top-five runner for us.He has just resumed training and to his credit he wanted to race just to see where he is from a fitness standpoint. Cooper is finally healthy and we expect big things from him his senior year.” Notes:Young made the all-conference team for the second time.Last year he was seventh in the CPC.... Both Davie teams finished fourth in the CPC for the fourth straight year.

For the well-being of all folks in our community,the above services are streamed online via FaceBook,You- Tube,or church website. Our community extends its deepest sympathy to the family of Jeanette Cartner Turner,who died of a mas- sive heart attack Thurs- day of last week at Forsyth Medical Center.She had been in declining health the past year since being diag- nosed with cancer. The second of three chil- dren,she was bom in Iredell County in 1937 to the late Clyde "Boo"and Blanche Richardson Cartner of Cart- ner Road at Old Mocksville Road.In 1955 she gradu- ated from Harmony High School,where she was ac- tive in several clubs and was a cheerleader.She then married her high school sweetheart Cool Springer Jim Turner of Mr.Henry Road.The couple made their home in Winston-Sa- lem,where they reared son Alex.She worked for R.J. Reynolds from May 1955 to her retirement thirty-two years later.She then helped with her husband's business in Winston-Salem.Jeanette was active in several clubs including Red Hat Society, Woodmen Life,and Mem- ories of Santa.The couple attended Mt.Carmel United Methodist Church,where she was involved in church programs. A graveside service cele- brating her life was held last Tuesday morning at Park- lawn Memorial Cemetery in Winston-Salem,and she was laid to rest there. We extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Betty Snider Stroud,who died last Saturday morning at Gordon Hospice House following hospitalization and a period of declining health. The sixth of eight chil- dren and the last surviving one,she was bom in Davie County in 1929 to the late Phillip and Ada Murphy Snider of Davie -South Calahaln.She attended the first and second grades at Davie Academy;when it closed in the spring of 1937, she transferred to Cool Spring High School and graduated in 1947. When the Snider fam- ily lived on Ridge Road near US 64 West,she was an active member of Soci- ety Baptist Church,where she met her future husband Kenneth Stroud in 1950. The couple was married by Society Pastor W.B.Rim- mer in 1951 at his home in Troutman,and they lived with his parents about two years before moving to Statesville,where Betty clerked at Statesville Rexall Dmg. In 1958 they returned to County Line as they joined his brother Junior in owner/operation of Stroud Brothers'Amoco,where they and children Gary and Susan lived in an upstairs apartment,and after a year owned/operated the busi- ness as Ken's Amoco until 1978 when they closed the business.In the late 1970s the couple built a house on a farm on Davie Academy Road they bought in 1962 and later operated a chicken and beef farm business. Betty then worked for Hanes Hosiery for ten years. The couple became charter members of Calvary Baptist Church when it was built in 1984 on land they donated. A graveside service cel- ebrating her life was held yesterday (Wednesday)af- temoon in the cemetery of Calvary Baptist Church, where she had been a ded- icated member,church trea- surer,choir member,and Women's Missionary Union member;she was laid to rest beside her beloved hus- band Ken,who died April 1917. Betty has been our coor- dinator for Calvary Baptist events and announcements for our weekly County Line community news since its beginning September 2003. Our community greatly ap- predates her dedication and special contribution to our favored County Line "flash- backs."She will definitely be missed. Our community sends get-well wishes to Shirley Prather Lewis;who fell at home Monday of last week, broke her hip,had surgery at Iredell Memorial Hospital, and was transferred to Ber- muda Village for rehab last Monday.Faye Stroud con- tinues to rest at home while under treatment for cancer. Join us in prayer for the Lord's divine healing and blessings upon Shirley, Faye,and others who are having health problems.

Continue to pray for the many families in our area affected by the coronavi- rus.Pray for our country as the count of infection cases continues to increase and there are hospitals at .capacity in many cities. Last Monday afternoon our state had recorded almost 7600 coronavirus-related deaths,and there were cur- rently almost 3850 corona- virus hospitalizations.Our state's positive test rate had also decreased to 13.93,but that rate needs to be 5.0 or below.Just please wear a mask and social distance when among others. I cannot end this news column without a plea to pray fervently for our coun- try and its democracy.In my 76 years of life there have never been a citizens'attack on our Capitol and attempt to overthrow our democracy as happened Wednesday af- temoon of last week.Dec. 7,1941,was as President Roosevelt said a day "to live in infamy."Now Jan. 6,2021 will be such a day. There are now more armed threats toward our Capitol and the capital cities in each state between now and Jan. 20.Please pray for peace and that our country will continue to be a shining de- mocracy to the world.

Anna Symmes Harrison,wife of William Henry Harrison,never carried out duties of the First Lady of the United States. William Henry Harrison was an In- dian fighter elected 9th President of the United States. By Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino Correspondent Martha Wayles Jeffer- son,the wife of the third President of the United States,Thomas Jefferson; Rachel Donelson Jackson, the wife of the seventh Pres- ident,Andrew Jackson;and Hannah Hoes Van Buren, wife of the eighth President, Martin Van Buren,all died before they could serve as the First Lady of the United States. Anna Tuthill Symmes Harrison,wife of the ninth President,William Henry Harrison,never lived in the White House and never per- formed the duties of First Lady for a different reason. Anna Tuthill Symmes was bom in New Jersey in 1775,the year that the Rev- olutionary War began.An- na’s mother died while she was young.Her father took his daughter to New York to live with her grandparents. Those grandparents were quite well-to-do and were able to send Anna to the best schools where she got an excellent education. When Anna was older, her father bought a huge tract of land,500,000 acres, in Ohio.He took Anna there to live with him. When Anna was 19,she met a young soldier -actually an Indian fighter -William Henry Harrison,22.Anna and William fell in love. Anna’s father.Judge John Cleves Symmes,disap- proved of the relationship because he did not want his daughter to have to suffer the hardships of being the wife of an Indian fighter on the American frontier. The father’s disapprov- al did not deter the young lovers.They were secretly married on Nov.25,1795. They moved to the Harrison Farm in North Bend,Ohio.

William Henry Harrison was appointed governor of the Indiana Territory.The family moved to Vincennes, Indiana.In 1803 and 1804, Mr.Harrison built a beauti- ful brick house on the banks of the Wabash River,which he named Grouseland,and moved his family there. That big house was prob- ably needed because the Harrisons had 10 children, one of whom died as a baby. While living in Vincennes, Mr.Harrison was supposed to improve relationships with the Indians.Treaties were made with the Indi- ans,which were really an attempt by the white man to get more Indian land.Mr. Harrison thought he had a good relationship with the Indians,but there is a hole in a window at Grouseland which was made when an Monday night at the station at 7.If interested in becom- ing a volunteer firefight- er,feel free to come to the meetings or see any member of the department.Everyone is welcome.

Mr.Harrison served in several governmental posi- tions,and then he decided to run for President of the United States.That was a decision which his wife strongly opposed.She want- ed her husband to retire so they could spend pleasant retirement years together. That was not to be. Mr.Harrison not only ran for President,but he also won the election after an interesting campaign in which a log cabin and hard cider were used as symbols. Those symbols really did not represent the true Wil- liam Henry Harrison,who was not bom in a log cab- in but in a mansion on the bank of the James River in Virginia,and was not given to sitting around drinking hard cider.After he won the election,Mr.Harrison left his home and his wife and went to his birthplace in Vir- ginia to write his Inaugural Address. facial masks is appreciated.

While Mrs.Harrison was packing to make the trip from her home to Washing- ton,she received the mes- sage that her husband was dead.William Henry Har- rison had served as Presi- dent of the United States for only 31 days.The Inaugural Address on which William Henry Harrison had worked so hard was his undoing.

Anna Symmes Harri- son was not only the wife of a President of the Unit- ed States;she was also the grandmother of a President. The 23rd President of the United States,Benjamin Harrison,was her grandson. Mrs.Harrison is the only person to date who was the wife of a president of the United States and the grand- mother of a president. There are two places connected to the Harrison Family that are interesting to visit.' First,there is the Harri- son Mansion on the James River in Virginia where William Henry Harrison was bom and where he re- turned to write his Inaugural Speech.That house is one of Virginia’s oldest surviv- ing mansions.There are a number of James River Plantations near the Harri- son Mansion including that of John Tyler.It is possible to visit a number of interest- ing historical properties in one day. The other place con- nected to William Henry is the house in Vincennes, Ind.called Grouseland.It is beautiful house which is completely restored.Not much of the furniture in the house belonged to the Har- risons,but it is furnished with beautiful furniture of that period of history.That house Was named Grouse- land because of Mr.Harri- son’s love of hunting grouse. There is even grouse wall- paper on some of the walls in the house.Five of the ten Harrison children were bom at that Vincennes house.

Daniel Potts,18,was found dead in a car that had been driven into the side to the Davie County Rescue Squad building,said Davie Sheriff J.D.Hartman.The building was slightly damaged. While officers arrived at the scene,another gunshot victim had reported to Davie Medical Center in Bermuda Run.That victim,Trayle Beasley,18,of Winston-Salem,was treated and released. Hartman said that about 2:50 p.m.Sunday,a 911 call came in about gunshots being fired in the area.An officer was close by,and found the vehicle at the rescue squad building.There was another man at the scene, and multiple people nearby in the road,Hartman said. Multiple people were in- volved in the altercation,and none were from Davie County, Hartman said.Two weapons were recovered from the secne. One man admitted to firing his gun,saying that someone he knew was being dragged by the car and that someone in the Vehicles enter the Deer Run neighborhood in Mocksville during a caravan celebrat- ing the life of the Rev.Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.on Monday afternoon. Dr.King’s message is stiii important today Second dose vaccine clinics start this week By Mike Earnhardt Enterprise Record How have White supremist groups been able to grow in the United States? It’s because individuals - white and black -have allowed it to happen. Dannie Montgomery,speak ing virtually during the Davie NAACP the Rev.Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.celebration on Monday,said those words,urg- ing those listening in to keep up King’s non-violent message of equality and justice for all. “After so many killings,it has been put on the front page of history,”she said of the deaths of black men and worn- en at the hands of police.“All of America of good conscious stood up and said enough is enough.People in leadership roles ...try to keep people in poverty. “Dr.King was a man of jus- tic.He gave his life for justice. Those things that were import- ant to him are stil important to us today,”she said. America had been moving forward before Donald Trump was elected,she said. “They tried to say that black folks don’t count and their votes are illegitimate and they must not be allowed to elect a president.They were not sue- cessful,but are still trying to figure out how to keep us from moving forward.” The voting box -local and national -is the way to foster change,she said.“We have to be careful who we elect and we Please See King -Page 5 The site for all COVID-19 vaccination clinics in Davie County will be at the Davie County Community Park on US 601 South in Mocksville.

Professional development has been a primary focus of DavieLEADS (Literacy Em- powers All in Davie to Sue- ceed),a five-year early litera- cy initiative funded by a $2.5 million grant from the Mebane Foundation,since the begin- ning.The goals are to improve 1 kindergarten readiness from 70 percent to 90 percent and to in- crease reading proficiency in third grade from 66 percent to 80 percent by 2022.

Covid vaccine shot.Everyone who was involved (health Kay L.Burton department,sheriffs department}and all others are to be Advance We’re still:‘One nation under God’ Words do matter. What you say matters. And today,as much as any time in our country’s re- cent history,the words of the Rev.Dr.Martin Luther King Jr,matter. Of course,his words matter to black people,they matter to the poor,they matter to the downtrodden,and to the ones traditionally looked down upon by much of our society. But his words should matter to us all. It’s no wonder he was met with such hatred.Al- though what he was proposing was long overdue,it was change.Drastic change.It seems we’re never ready for drastic change,whether positive or not. Dr.King was a minister.And like him or not.King had a way of cutting right to the chase.He didn’t do it with harsh words or threats or by demeaning those who opposed him.He did it with words of hope and of wis- dom.He knew right from wrong,and wasn’t afraid to speak up.And his words make us think,not only about ourselves,but about the world around us. Following are just a few King quotes.There are hun- dreds more worthy of publication and just as inspira- tional • “We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor,it must be demanded by the oppressed.” • “Science investigates;religion interprets.Science gives man knowledge,which is power;religion gives man wisdom,which is control.Science deals mainly with facts;religion deals mainly with values.The two are not rivals.” • “Philanthropy is commendable,but it must not cause the philanthropist to overlook the circumstances of eco- nomic injustice which make philanthropy necessary.” • “The limitation of riots,moral questions aside,is that they cannot win and their participants know it.Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary because it invites defeat.It involves an emotional catharsis,but it must be followed by a sense of futility.” • “We must develop and maintain the capacity to for- give.He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us.When we discover this,we are less prone to hate our enemies.” To the editor: There is a plan -a visible,structured and premeditated by man plan that the majority of society follows and gaug- es their lives on.There is an unseen plan that was put into place before the foundation of time which will bring these out of control,hate filled and lawless acts of mankind back to order. On Wednesday,Jan.6,this nation was met with fury and systemic acts from a culture,with warning,but when the plan played out before nations,in the midst of a pandemic, left many to question,what indeed has happened to the United States of America,land of the free and the home of the brave?A democracy that is diverse to accommodate all cultures somehow has gone wrong. Reality,truth and change doesn’t come in colors;how- ever,there is a road from these three powerful words which encapsulates a defining world called good and evil,with which both will be met with accountability. This disrespectful display of hypocrisy is something that people of color have experienced over the years.And yes, there were protests,as a simple request for equal rights and respect due to the fact that there is no superior race.It will be better when we recognize one another as the human race. Not only will there be a scar on the hearts of many Amer- leans after this traumatic act of rebellion,this is a situation that will reflect on the children of this generation,which still fabricating how the act of lawlessness,hate and evil has seeped out from its boundaries,but accountability will come.Is it so important that you hold onto a title or a la- bel and go through life blind,rather than to define right and wrong no matter the title?Philippians 2:&(This verse speaks of Jesus)”but made Himself of no reputation,taking the form of a bond servant and coming in the likeness of men.” In December 2020,my brother.Pastor Julian Gaither, was sharing on Facebook at one of his Bible studies.His 5-year-old son,Giovanni,insisted on saying his view and these are the words my nephew shared:“God wants us to be righteous,and its time for us to make our reservations.” I found Giovanni’s statement to be profound and powerful. I did not take his statement for granted as I continue to re- fleet on it.He certainly has my attention and this has given me a lot to focus on in my personal life. The spirit of lawlessness is exhibited by an exertion of the self desires above anything or anybody at the expense of others.-Bishop Claud Alexander No man has the right or dominion over another one’s life in any form and especially to his death.As families and citizens of this great nation,we all want the same for our children.A good life,to achieve physically,mentally and financial stability. My very light skinned brothers and sisters,you can no longer stand on the shoulders of the minority for your gain. We all were taught right from wrong in our childhood.Life as we know it is what you choose. Stop discounting God and making Him your god at your convenience.The Pledge of Allegiance (which is a prayer) defines very clearly that this is One Nation Under God. God,not being your magician no more than Santa is a “Clause.”The rabbit and the doves no longer pop out of the magician’s hat,they decided to go back to their own social environment.Jack decided to stay in his box due to a socially distancing world.The magician and his wand had to disappear,because he beat himself at his own game.

The church stopped holding services around the time of the Civil War,and nothing of the building remains.Howev- er,the rock wall around the cemetery remains,and several gravestones are there,but they are all totally overgrown.I remember going there years ago when Mr.Wall took my students on a tour of the county’s historical places.The lo- cation is on Comatzer Road.Twenty-eight people are sup- posedly buried there. The weathervane from the church was lost for years,then found and taken to the Rowan County Museum,where it remains.It was shaped like a rooster and supposedly rep- resented Peter’s denial of Christ,designed to warn others not to do the same. The Lutherans formed other churches in Davie County also,St.Matthews in 1839,and Cherry Hill Lutheran in 1873,but those churches are no longer active.Holy Cross, founded in 1959,remains an active congregation. As it has evolved,Davie has more Baptist and Methodist churches than any other denominations. Make This World a Better Place By Stephanie Williams Dean I'm reminded of a song that Diana Ross sang and re- corded. Reach out and touch Somebody's hand, Make this world a better place If you can. These lyrics are appropriate more than ever during a continuing pandemic. You might say that's more difficult to do now with the distancing restrictions that are in place.But don't be dis- couraged.Don't let isolation get the best of you. There are many ways to "touch"someone that doesn't involve the actual touching of someone's hand.Metaphori- cally speaking,we touch folks whenever we make a per- sonal connection with them. Whether we mail out several cards each afternoon,pick up the phone to make a couple of calls each day,bake food once a week to drop off for someone sick,schedule and invite new friends to a weekly Zoom meeting,or organize celebratory drive-bys -we are "touching"someone else. When we reach out and connect with another person,we help ease others'feelings of depression,profound loneli- ness,and isolation.You can help make someone else's world a better place. Also,we have been gifted with the most extraordinary power of all power -the Holy Spirit.Commit to a time for prayer.Pray for people to come together and for our coun- try to heal from divisiveness.You have the power to make this world a better place -through the power of prayer. The idea's not if we can.But when we will. Winter’s Wonders By Kevin F.Wishon I watch as a young male woodpecker bounces up the maple tree outside of my house,searching for a meal.He is the poster-perfect specimen of a woodpecker to the point that his fine feathers appear almost airbrushed.With the red splash on the back of his head and the dark grey,white speckles traveling the length of his wings,he stands in sharp contrast to one of last year's hatchlings perched on a nearby fence.The chick’s thick,fluffy grey feathers make it difficult to tell what kind of bird it is,but its clinginess to its parent removes all doubt.Soon,the adult has exhausted all feeding opportunities on the maple and flies off to an- other tree with the chick not far behind.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.21,2021 -3 Witness for Christ COVID adds to health woes as Jim Spry fights for his life By Mike Barnhardt Enterprise Record COOLEEMEE -Jim Spry was the definition of “high risk”when he con- tracted COVID-19,first di- agnosed on Dec.3. He has Addison’s Dis- ease,which means his body does not produce adren- aline.He is also diabetic, and had been losing muscle control. The past month has been a roller coaster ride of ups and downs for his family -who say they are getting by the confusing and some- times conflicting medical system -via their faith and prayer. The community is doing more than praying.Going door to door,through jar donations at local business- es and via mail,the Judy Webb and the Cooleemee Civitan Club are collecting money for the family.Send checks for the Spry family to Cooleemee Civitans,PO Box 517,Cooleemee,NC, or call Webb at 336-782- 3711. Soon after the COVID diagnosis,his wife.Bar- bara,said they increased his Addison’s medicine.It worked for about five days before his condition wors- ened. His fever went from 102°to 63°.His Addison’s had been compromised so off to the hospital he went. His wife,Barbara,made the trip at about 11:30 p.m., and waited in the parking lot for word on her hus- band. She knew he should have been on IV medica- tion and when he told her he hadn’t,she confronted a nurse,who gave one story, then another,Barbara said. He had already been di- agnosed with pneumonia, but she was told he didn’t have enough symptoms to qualify for COVID medi- cations. She learned the next day he had been put into ICU. What she wasn’t told was at what hospital.He had been moved. By Dec.10,doctors were recommending he go on a ventilator.It was upsetting,because in the background she could hear her husband say,‘“Barbara, don’t do it’.” The doctors told her it was necessary,and she ex- plained that to her husband. “They did put him on it,”she said.“We’ve had a mountain of people praying because Jim Spry is one of the most well-liked people in Davie County.” It had been the longest time she hadn’t been with her husband in more than 50 years of marriage. Then the prayers start- ed that he would get well enough to get off the ven- tilator,she said.Those prayers worked,too,she said.Now the prayers are up to get breathing on his own without the help of a tracheotomy. He has gone from the COVID ICU unit,to the cardiac ICU unit,and is now under intermediate ICU care.He can’t eat or drink on his own.He will enter rehab after the trache- otomy is removed. “I’m confused with a lot that’s happened,but God has been so good,”Bar- bara said.“God gave him enough breath to talk to people two days ago.God is going to get us through this. “Knowing that people have prayed for him to get off that ventilator was Miracle No.1.Now we’re praying for Miracle No. 2,”she said.“Everybody’s been so great,letting us know that all of us are in their prayers. “We’re going to contin- ue with prayer and ask ev- erybody for their prayers. “He’s got a huge testimony and he’s such a great wit- ness for Christ.”Suffering from Addison’s,diabetes and then COVID,Jim Spry and his family have been put through the ringer for more than a month.

Continued From Page 2 how nature’s creatures withstand the bitter,cold tempera- tures and near starvation.However,after some reading and viewing of nature shows.I’ve discovered that most birds, which winter in the cooler climates,are well adapted for the season.These adaptations and anatomical features go beyond growing more insulating feathers or adding a layer of fat. So,why don’t bird’s feet freeze and get stuck to metal surfaces like warm fingers or a tongue can.Simplifying it a bit,it’s about heat exchange.When a bird’s legs get cold, the warm blood stays within the fowl's body while cooler, slightly above freezing blood circulates within the legs. The circulatory system transfers just enough warm blood to keep the legs from freezing but doesn’t raise the tern- perature high enough to create heat loss or risk of stick- ing to a surface.Amazing.For years,I thought those poor birds must be freezing.As it turns out,they’re doing just fine. The robins that populate this region tend to winter near the Gulf of Mexico,spending time here only in the warm- est months.Some years ago,I noticed that the robins that feasted on worms in my yard had a curious habit.I was amazed by how the robins would follow me around the yard in the summer months as I mowed,shortening the grass.Some robins boldly hopped into the path of the mower for a worm,at times.Why were these birds acting this way?After some reading,I learned this behavior is a survival instinct.If confronted with snow or ice,these and several other birds searched for large forest animals like deer,boar,or livestock,which exposed the bare ground as they move.By moving the snow or breaking the ice,these large aninials were unknowingly helping the birds gain ac- cess to the dirt beneath and a meal.Later,I couldn’t help but laugh,thinking how those robins would never tolerate me standing close,but put me on a lawn tractor,and I’m their friend. These are just two surprising things I’ve learned about a bird’s ability to survive in the winter.There are extreme exceptions,but usually nature is incredibly well suited for handling the chilly months.I’ve also read that humans can adapt to living in much colder climates to a degree.That’s also interesting,but I think I’ll stay right here with the woodpecker. ••• For more information on Renegade Writers Guild,visit WWW.renegadewritersguild.wordpress .com. ••• Submit a favorite memory of life in Davie County.Sto- ry should be typed and not more than 250 words.Please include your name and phone number or email address.

Does that person love animals but can no longer care for them? If so,you may be able to get a robotic cat or dog from Davie County Senior Services through their Fam- ily Caregiver Support Pro- gram. A family caregiver is any family member,partner or friend who,regularly and without pay,provides sup- port or care to an older adult who is 60 years of age or older who has a significant or persistent health problem or loss of autonomy.Often times the older adult may be living with Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia. There are more than 65 million people in the Unit- ed States considered to be serving in the role of family caregivers.Without neces- sary supports,many family caregivers experience bum out and declining health, which is even more striking during this stressful time of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Family Caregiver Support Program,as part of the Older Americans Act, has served and supported caregivers in Davie County since its inception in 2006. Senior Services is aware that family caregivers are doing their best to try to keep their loved one at home and limit their outside contact in order to protect them,said director,Kim Shuskey.In doing this,they have also had to limit many services or supports that they may have been receiv- ing to assist them. Those services may have included help from home care or home health agen- cies or help from friends or neighbors in the com- munity.Many families are sheltering in place with their loved one and are full-time caregivers without any sup- port for the first time. The Administration for Community Living award- ed grant funds from the Coronavirus Aid,Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act)to support family caregivers. Robotic pets can help patients with dementia. Davie County Senior Services received these funds. “Based on feedback from other surrounding counties and our current family caregivers,robotic therapy pets was one of the services chosen to provide,” Shuskey said. Research show that ro- botic therapy pets can help seniors struggling with loneliness,isolation,and dementia.Robotic pets are becoming increasingly common because they are life-like and designed to give seniors a sense of com- panionship and comfort,she said. “These pets are calm- ing and soothing and of- ten times create a sense of purpose for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.Many people will name their robotic pets and form attachments to them. The relationship that each person forms with their pet will be unique to their abili- ties,”she said. Some may treat the pet as a real dog or cat,while others may understand that they are robotic stuffed ani- mals but still benefit from the companionship of them during this time of social isolation. The CEO of Ageless Innovation,Ted Fischer, which is the company be- hind the most popular Joy for All Companion Pets, has shared some of his in- sight on its website.Fischer states that the robotic pets were “developed with ex- tensive input from older adults”and designed “to look,sound,and feel just l ik e real puppies and kit- tens-without the responsi- bilities of pet ownership.” Unlike many regular stuffed animals,the robotic therapy pets have a heart- beat and they respond to human touch,voice,and in- teraction. “This helps give mean- ingful and engaging con- nection for your loved one,” he said. Fischer said he wanted to “bring fun and play to the older adult and show that play has no age limit”.The company has received vari- ous feedback from caregiv- ers that have shared their stories and testimonials on the positive affect the robot- ic pets have had on reducing isolation and loneliness and the overall quality of life of their loved one. Some staff members at Senior Services have wit- nessed the benefits that the robotic therapy pets have had for family caregivers and their loved ones. Senior Services has a golden colored dog or three colors of cats available. In addition to the ani- mals.Senior Services also provides other services to family caregivers.These in- elude respite,incontinence supplies and nutritional supplements,a resource li- brary and a caregiver sup- port group via Zoom.Com- ing soon are activity kits for those with Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Training... £^cUldutf Sccfrfilc^ •Framing Lumber •Treated Lumber •Plywood /•Flooring •Plumbing •Electrical First grade teachers learn from one another during the PLC meetings. Continued From Page 1 two full-time literacy coach- es and two professional consultants,to develop and build the professional ca- pacity of the kindergarten through third-grade teach- ers in Davie County Schools (DCS).Each year’s PD fo- cus builds upon the previ- ous year. That training has proven vital as teachers master new methods of teaching and seek to fill achievement gaps caused by the sudden transition to virtual instruc- tion. Of particular importance are the weekly professional learning community (PLC) meetings,which allow teachers to share expertise and work together to im- prove teaching skills and drive the academic perfor- mance of students.Teach- ers work as a team to clar- ify the state’s educational standards and to determine the best way to teach them, create common formative assessments (CFAs),ana- lyze data,and plan extra assistance for students not meeting grade-level expec- tations. Since the beginning of the 2020-2021 school year, DCS has worked to provide face-to-face and virtual in- struction.Currently,Pre-K students have the option to be in school five days a week,elementary school students 4 days a week with remote learning on Wednes- days,and middle and high school students are on an AB schedule that splits in- struction into three days online and two days face- to-face. The school system es- tablished DCS Virtual for families who preferred full remote learning. Offering both options re- quired a shift in personnel with some teachers chang- ing grade levels or schools and others transitioning to full-time virtual instruction. All agree that the shift was made easier because of the district's established and standardized PLC process. “I didn't know what PLCs would look like as I moved into virtual teaching,but no ground was lost,”said Kristy Brown,DCS Virtual first grade.“Our new team picked up like we had been together forever,and we have continued to have the weekly conversations about the standards and students' data...” “We have six elemen- tary schools,two with npw principals and a third with a principal who is new to elementary school,as well as a new coordinator for DCS Virtual,”said Lynde. “Being able to continue what we had in place prior to the pandemic,even with new leadership,speaks vol- umes.” PLCs were the primary focus during the first year of the initiative,and she re- calls how difficult some of those early meetings were, as the DavieLEADS con- sultants and literacy coach- es pushed teachers to delve more deeply into the stan- dards and to examine their methods of teaching.“As they became more comfort- able with the meetings and the process being used to clarify the standards,and began to see the benefits in their classrooms,they em- braced the process and it became second nature.” “One teacher shared that she was so thankful for the clarifying documents.As we went into remote learn- ing,she was able to utilize the clarifying document, previously created collab- oratively by her team,as she helped plan her piece of the instruction,”said Da- vieLEADS Literacy Coach Amy Spade. “Our teachers are seeing the value of PLCs more than ever,”Lynde said.“PLCs are not just something we said we need to do or an initiative we started that we have to carry through. Many teachers you talk to say T feel like I’m a new teacher all over again,’and we know how much new teachers depend on each other.With the pandemic, the PLCs are even more crucial because of the col- laboration piece that teach- ers are relying on more than ever.” Sunni Collins,instruc- tional coach at William R. Davie Elementary,agreed. “Our collaborative conver- sations allow us to support each other and think about instructional practices from different perspectives while analyzing student learning and planning instruction to meet their needs.Hav- ing already built trusting relationships and a founda- tion of collaboration around student outcomes has been extremely beneficial in ad- dressing the learning gaps created by the school shut- downs.” While DavieLEADS and the professional learning community meetings focus on language arts.Spade said the benefits have car- ried over into other subjects like math. “There are a lot more gaps in math because of the way it is structured,particu- larly when you talk about standards being taught remotely compared to in- person...Had our teachers not done the work in ELA (English language arts)they wouldn’t have the clarify- ing procedure to carry over to other subjects.” •Wood Furniture •and much more. sikkens Salisbury UUl'StiavtUA “Waad Our business is on the same side the road as the saw miil. ^5301 plisbury Hwy.{Hwy 70 East),Statesville,‘ * SMiEs^^aKm£,msntuMStP^ cx ‘HmCLiC0nse#13736 SERViMfs omwm OfRiStt:336-284-^BBI 336-34S-920T T04^.OT3-#ryy The value of the Da- vieLEADS initiative ex- tends beyond PLCs.Another first-year focus,Letterland, a phonics-based program that teaches students how to read,write,and spell, has also played a vital role during the pandemic,ac- cording to Literacy Coach Renee Hennings-Gonzalez. During the spring,she and Spade worked on modify- ing Letterland Smartboard slides so teachers could still record themselves teaching Letterland lessons to fidel- ity and upload them to their learning management sys- tern for the students during remote instruction. “This fall,as our K-2 population has had four days face-to-face and one day of remote instruction a week.We’ve taken the Letterland slides and ed- ited them further to make sure that the program is met with fidelity so that students are still getting access to all of the content in order to prevent forward gaps,” said Hennings-Gonzalez. “This supports teachers in meeting grade-level crite- ria while catching students up from any gaps from the spring.” In addition to Letterland, students are reaping the benefits of Heggerty,a pho- nemic awareness program backed by both research and science that was a fo- cus of DavieLEADS last year.A phoneme is a speech sound.It is the smallest unit of language and has no in- herent meaning.Phonemic awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate the sounds in spoken words and the understanding that spoken words and syllables are made up of sequences of speech sounds.Understand- ing that letters in words are systematically represented by sounds is a critical first step in learning to read and to write. The curriculum was in- troduced as a pilot program in a few Pre-K and kinder- garten classes right before virtual instruction began. As a result of the positive response,it is now being used in all Pre-K -first- grade classes and is also helping to combat and pre- vent learning gaps. “We are so grateful to the Mebane Foundation for funding the DavieLEADS initiative.If we had not already had so many of these foundational pieces in place,I think adapting during the pandemic would have been a lot more chal- lenging,”said Lynde. The Mebane Foundation in Mocksville supports col- laborations and partnerships among educational profes- sionals (public and private), business leaders,elected of- ficials,and the community and has served as a catalyst by granting more than $17 million to educational pro- gram partners across the state.The Foundation fo- cuses resources to ensure that all children have the opportunity to reach their highest potential in school, career,and life.

S LAMBERT BOOST helps local businesses navigate through the pandemic Continued From Page 1 “When Terry (Bralley, president of the Davie Conn- ty Economic Development Commission)called and asked me about providing something so that the nurses could be under shelter to ad- minister the vaccine and the clinics could be held rain or shine,my answer was a re- sounding yes,”said Michael Brammer,SES CFO.“Terry and I had gotten to know each other very well over the past year while we were building our new facility, and he has done an amazing job of getting us plugged into the local community. “We love that Davie County is our home now and are thrilled to be part of the community and able to give back in this way.” After talking with repre- sentatives from the Davie County Health Department to determine exactly what was needed.Crew Chief Lawrence Lightner,who is usually touring with Billy Joel,went to work design- ing the custom structures. He and logistics and oper- ations stalf members Dave Cheek,Will Hatley,Jack Millsaps,and Adam Stipe built the shelters on Thurs- day. Brammer said the coun- ty will be able to continue using the shelters until they are no longer needed for the vaccination clinics. “The vaccine is what is going to put our industry back to work.The success of our business relies on people being able to gath- er in a large setting safely and it has been proven that achieving herd immunity through vaccinations is the only way to do that.So the more people we can encour- age to do that,and the faster we can get it done,the faster we can get back to work and putting on the events that people love going to. “Dr.Fauci recently stat 635 Wilkesboro St.Mocksville,NC (336)751-1100 SELECTED wwwJamlmrtfuneraihomenccom *Taxes,grave site,grave opening and dosing,death certificates are excluded.

This initiative was an effort to help busi- ness owners navigate the difficulties of the COVID-19 realities.The Small Business Center and its partners seek to continue providing the guidance with BOOST,a 16- week certificate program that includes edu- cation,mentoring and a pitch competition. BOOST is intended for existing busi- nesses. “Succeeding in this uncertain economy takes a lot of time and effort,”said Martha Larson,center director.“The advantage of a project like BOOST is that business owners will have the opportunity to get the advice and input from many experts. “Taking advantage of the professional know-how is very important to business owners.Many businesses need a team to help them with the many facets of business operations.Now,businesses may not have the cash flow to pay for an accountant or lawyer,"Larson said. BOOST is a commitment. Participants will be given the opportuni- ty to learn lessons from finance,small busi- ness owners,marketing experts.BOOST will focus on tangible strategies and cus- tomize mentor hours based upon the partic- ipant's needs.The new program is designed to help existing business owners assess their needs and to help achieve goals that may allow their businesses to increase prof- itability in 2021. Melissa Darr of Generational Transi- tions took advantage of business counsel- ing and mentoring.She faced challenges early on as she planned for her business and started during the pandemic. "I had to revise my business model and get my business out quickly,"she said. "The mentoring provided by the Small Business Center mentors not only guided me through the basics of startup,but gave Melissa Darr says the business counseling offered through the Da- vidson-Davie Community College’s Small Business Center in Bermuda Run. me complimentary access to professionals who offered counseling regarding graphic design,website and marketing." BOOST requires an application that is due by Jan.22.Applications may be accept- ed after Jan.22 but space is limited.This free program is virtual and open to busi- nesses in Davidson and Davie counties.

Coconut is added to the multi-grain Hearty Range Cookies You can add raisins to the brown sugar sweetened Oatmeal Muffins. Oatmeal much more than instant breakfast A favorite breakfast dish is a bowl full of piping hot oats. Oatmeal’s a superfood. All types -steel-cut,rolled,or quick oats provide impor- tant vitamins and minerals like thia- mine,magnesium, phosphorus,zinc, iron,and more - nutrients essential to health during winter.The list of benefits is long. All oats are excel- lent for nutrition regardless of the cut. Old-fashioned rolled oats are oat groats steamed and rolled into flakes. They cook quicker than steel-cut oats. Quick oats are cut into more pieces and rolled thinner. They will not have as much texture as steel- cut or rolled but will cook even faster.If a recipe calls for quick oats and you have rolled oats,pulse the quick oats in a food processor.In a recipe,rolled and quick oats can be swapped.Nothing changes except texture -and that won’t matter.Instant oats are cut smaller,pressed thinner,need little cooking time -and not recommended for interchange. Whatever oat groats you eat,all are high- ly nutritious.When I look on the label and see only one ingredient -100%oats -it’s confirmed. Oats are so much more than a pre-pack- aged,instant breakfast food.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.21,2021 -B1 Sports Williams No.1 in country with 60-3.5 shot put throw By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record ' Here’s a sentence seldom typed: A Davie athlete is ranked No.1 in the country. After competing in the Virgin- ia Showcase at Virginia Beach on Saturday,Davie’s Spencer Williams is ranked No.1 in the country in the shot put in his junior class,No.1 in North Carolina and No.3 overall in the country. “This is the big meet that used to be at Liberty,”Davie track & field coach Rob Raisbeck said. “This is the most prestigious indoor meet in the country.They come from all over the country for this meet.The current leader is from South Dakota.The No. 2 thrower is from Ohio and is just two inches ahead of Spencer. Spencer’s throw is the fourth-best indoor mark in North Carolina in the last 21 years and tied for the best mark in the junior class during that period.” Williams’start on Saturday wasn’t glorious. “My first throw was 49 feet;it was horrible,”he said.“So I was kind of doubting myself a little bit. Then it all fell into place.” Man,did it ever.His fifth throw was golden,a 60-3.5 toss that resulted in a massive personal record.Gary Moore was runner-up at 58-10.5. Williams’previous best indoor throw was 50-7.His PR for out- door is 55-10. “After throwing (the 60-footer), I just sat there and stared at the ground for like 10 minutes,just thinking about it,”he said.“I really beheve it was God that got me that throw.Things just didn’t start out going my way,but they finished going well and I’m just beyond blessed for my opportunities I’ve been given.” Williams said his next meet will be in March.Spencer Williams won the shot put at Virginia Showcase. Senior Layla Caldwell reaches for a loose ball in last week’s season opener vs.West Forsyth.-Photos by Mark Floyd Adams faces vaunted foe in coaching debut By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record It’s got to be frustrating to have been quarantined multiple times and played zero games,while the other side had three games under its belt. It’s got to be frustrating to be a rebuilding program and who do the basketball gods give you as a season-opening opponent?A vaunted program,of course. When you look at all the el ements around the West For- syth-at-Davie varsity girls basket- ball matchup on Jan.16,it wasn’t a surprise that Lindsey Adams’ debut as Davie’s coach was a lopsided loss.The Titans were too big,too experienced and too talented for the work-in-progress War Eagles,who fell 73-32. The Titans,who improved to 2-0 in the Central Piedmont Con- ference,have won three of four. Look at their records the past five years:20-7,24-6,24-4,27-3 and 15-11.They won the 4-A state championship in 2018-19,and they won 110 of 141 games from 2015-16 through 2019-20. By contrast,the War Eagles went 16-11,6-17,3-21,6-19 and 0-25 the past five years.That added up to 31-93.Last season they lost by 44,37 and 51 to the Titans. But the War Eagles did come out playing tenacious defense against West.The Titans missed their first five shots,including four from 3-point range.It was still 0-0 at the 4:30 mark of the first quarter.West finally got on the board at 4:28. Davie,though,couldn’t take advantage of its effective defense/ rebounding during that stretch because it missed its first 10 shots. Davie’s first basket came with 2:30 left in the first,cutting West’s lead to 7-2. But once West got going,it steamrolled.The margins were Please See Debut -Page B5 Volleyball runs into juggernaut By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record Davie’s volleyball team was ran over by a freight train in the first round of the 4-A playoffs. The Green Hope Falcons,who ended Davie’s season in Cary on Jan.12,own a 29-match winning streak,having not lost since Sept. 14,2020.Their record from 2016 through 2021 is 126-6.(That’s not a misprint.) They went 28-1 in 2016,31-2 in 2017,28-1 in 2018 and 27-2 in 2019.They have walked off with the state championship trophy four years running. When the Falcons hosted Da- vie,it was business as usual.The 25-14,25-11,25-12 decision was unbeaten Green Hope’s ninth shutout in 12 matches,the other three going four sets.In the second round.Green Hope took down Green Level. “They’ve been absolutely phe- nomenal,”Davie coach Amber Brandon said.“A couple of years ago,I went to see Green Hope play at North Iredell.I was impressed with their warmups.They were unbelievably efficient and all on the same page.” One of Green Hope’s stars - 6-1 senior Sophia Kruczko -has Davie ties. “I think they’re a little bit down compared to where they’ve been the last four years,but they have a 6-2 right side who actually grew up Please See Volleyball -Page B3 Young 17th in regional cross country meet The Davie cross country team wrapped up its season Jan.16 at the Midwest 4-A Regional at Kern- ersville’s Ivey Redmond Park.

Davie was represented by ju- nior Caleb Young,who needed to place among the top four individ- uals not on the three qualifying teams to advance.Young,a two- time all-conference runner who was sixth in the Central Piedmont Conference this season,turned in a strong effort but came up a little short of the needed placing.His time of 17:18 was good for 17th place among 59 finishers.That finish was also eighth among in- dividuals after removing the top three qualifying teams.

T DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.21,2021 -B3 Ellis boys turn the table on South in basketball By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The Ellis and South Da- vie boys basketball teams have been traveling in op- posite directions for a while, the talent at each school running in cycles. Ellis was untouchable a few years ago,going 11-0 and 9-0 for back-to-back seasons.Then the Jaguars tumbled to 6-6,and last year really hit hard times (3-10). The Tigers were woeful South, By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The South Davie girls basketball team has been flying high for several years, and the Tigers picked up where they left off last year in a 38-25 road win over Ellis in the season opener on Jan.14. The Tigers have posted six straight winning seasons, including a 13-3 mark last year. They jumped out to 8-1 and 16-7 leads in the first half.South weathered a Kaylee Lewis storm to beat Ellis for the third straight time and 12th time in 13 meetings. “Considering we are relatively young and are working on a lot of funda- mentals,we did really well running the floor and getting some transition points,”said South coach Morgan Wyatt, who is 47-11 in five seasons. “We still have a long ways to go and a lot to work on, but starting off I was pleased Continued From Page B1 grew up in Davie County,” Brandon said.“She was really,really good -big size,big block and could swing anywhere across the front row.They have two outsides with heavy arms. They played at a speed that we haven’t seen this year.” Brandon said goodbye to four seniors,including three three-year varsity players (McKenzie Stakely,Dyllan Everhardt and Elizabeth Til- ley).The sensational libero, Stakely,earned conference defensive player of the year and will play in college at Grace College in Indiana. “She’s so fast defen- sively,”Brandon said.“She was the vocal leader on and off the court.She was the speaking captain on the floor.Her speed is what sets McKenzie apart from any other (defensive spe- cialist)libero that I have seen play all year.There are some balls that she can in 2014-15,going 1-13.But then they ripped off five straight non-losing seasons, including a 14-2 run last year when they tied for first in the regular season and captured the conference. The roles were reversed in last week’s season opener. Ellis went gangbusters on visiting South,winning 52- 25 on Jan.14. It was 27-9 after the first quarter and 41 -14 at the half, by which time Ethan Driver (12),Jackson Powers (eight) and Braddock Coleman (eight)had combined for 28 points. Driver finished with 12 points,while Powers and Coleman had 10 each.Adam Brown had seven and Wade Bomar four.Elliott Erlands- son,Noah Shore and Thom- as Essie had three apiece. Ellis has a new weapon (Powers)and it looks like he’s going to be a major asset.He is an eighth grader who spent the past two years at Summit. ger,”he said.“I know the end result was not what we wanted,but after Kaylee caught fire we started to loosen up and play better. “With Bailey,Cora (Nicholson)and Kaylee in the backcourt,good things will happen this season. They work well together and make for a dynamic part of our team. “Kayden and Emmie - both sixth graders -grabbed some rebounds and played very well against a strong South Davie team.I expect great plays from them,once their nerves settle down. “Quinn Cornatzer and Britany Hernandez came in off the bench and gave us some key minutes.We may be a team of few players (seven girls),but they play with heart.This was a great first game and I expect they will only get stronger as the season progresses.” Notes:Ellis was more competitive than last year, when it lost by 23 in both meetings against South.... possible lineups before the season,we knew someone was going to have move from middle and play out of position,”Brandon said. “It made the most sense to move Dyllan as the senior. She’s had more game ex- perience and she should be more flexible.And she did a phenomenal job of that.We completely changed her role for what it’d been the last three years.To see her step into that position and get put outside of her comfort zone and adapt to it was kind of special to finish out her high school career.” Tilley was always a key as a setter. For 31 years,folks from all over have been putting on their green running clothes and com- ing to Mocksville for the annual Shamrock Run. No more. St.Francis of Assisi Catholic Church,spon- “We had been trying to get Jackson to Ellis for two years,”coach Ted Boger said.“His older brother Jake Powers (a Davie junior) played for me.” The Jaguars nailed eight 3-pointers,including seven in the decisive first half,as they avenged two losses to South last year (63-48 and 46-40 in overtime).Cole- man had two of the triples. “After we got over pre- game nerves,we had a great game,”Boger said.“We Ellis was 5-8 last year.... This is Brunelli’s fourth year coaching basketball at Ellis and his second stint with the girls.He coached the girls in 2007-08;he coached the boys in 2008-09 and 2009-10. N.Davie 29,Wesleyan 19 Nadalie Jones came out smoking and sparked North Davie to a win over visiting Wesleyan Christian Acade- my in the Wildcats’season opener on Jan.14. Jones’seven quick points lifted North to a 9-2 lead in the first quarter.The Trojans regrouped and rallied,trail- ing 15-13 at halftime and 19-15 after the third. But Kaylee Lynch made sure the Wildcats held on, scoring eight of North’s 10 points in the fourth.Her spree included 4-of-6 foul shooting. It was an encouraging start for a team that’s suf- fered six losing seasons in seven years,including a 4-11 mark last year that saw Wesleyan whip North twice “This year she came in really positive and that (re- fleeted)the maturity level of this senior class,”Brandon said.“This summer the seniors chose We Before Me as a hashtag.All four of them had sat at some point, had to focus on putting the team above themselves and waited for their moment. In a couple of tough games down the stretch,Tilley stepped in as the emotional, mental leader.She brought energy and intensity.” Kaylee Krause was a two-year varsity player who epitomized Davie’s selfless group. sors of the annual event, have decided to discontin- ue the popular event. Last year,the event was canceled in March as the COVID-19 epidemic began, “After much discus- sion and prayer,we have played great defense that led to a lot of steals.” Landon Waller paced the Tigers with 13 points.Silas Marion had four.Josiah Spillman and Jayce Bentley had three and Kobe Thomp- son two. Wesleyan 59,N.Davie 26 It was a frightful opener for North Davie,which lost by 33 to visiting Wesleyan Christian Academy on Jan. 14. The Trojans opened up a 33-13 halftime lead and (38-4 and 35-21). “With the little time we had to prepare for our first game,and knowing they had been practicing since November,I wasn’t real- ly sure what to expect,” 23rd-year coach Trish King said.“I am fortunate to have five girls returning that played for me last year,so they already knew my sys- tern.Jones,Lynch,(Jaden) Sink,(Callie)Wisecarver and (Hannah)Meacham all returned with some pret- ty good knowledge of the game and some improve- ment since last year.” Jones was the star with 15 points and three 3-pointers. Lynch had 10,while Sink and Wisecarver chipped in two apiece. “Nadalie and Jaden run the floor and are pretty in- strumental in setting up our shots,”King said.“Nadalie has a keen sense for the game and moves pretty well with and without the ball to get herself in scoring position.She can knock ‘em “She’s just a great kid,a great student-athlete,”she said.“She comes from a good family and she’s been an important role player and a positive contributor to the group.Kaylee is level-head- ed,steady,mature kid,and I think that was so important for us to have this year.” Notes:Davie was miss- ing three players at Green Hope,including two quar- antined players and injured Aimee Loj....Kruezko lived in Davie County when she was young.“She went to elementary with these kids, and then I think they moved to Wilmington and then decided that we are not going to be continuing the Shamrock Run,”the Rev.

Brady Marshall led North with 10 points.Con- nor Hood had seven,Gavin Reese five and Landon King four. “We got beat on the boards,”coach Trev- or Gooch said.“We also missed 18 free throws.Our kids played hard but we must do a better job of play- ing defense and boxing out. “Brady had a nice game in the paint.” down from the 3-point line.- “Kaylee has improved quite a bit and plays with much more confidence this year.She probably had 12 rebounds along with her points. “Callie is a big presence on the floor and will be good on the boards.Jaden is my Energizer Bunny and never stops playing 100 percent. She is running the point some and is my best de- fender.She will contribute in the offensive column, but will probably be more instrumental in setting up others for a shot or firing up our defense.As a captain, I am really depending on her a lot. “Hannah will give us some quality time at the one and two guard positions and can be a scoring threat. Look for sixth-grader Avarie Martin to start shining as we get further into the season. I see a lot of potential for this young lady to be quite the player as she gets more comfortable on the court.” moved to Raleigh,”Brandon said....Brandon said the 2020-21 team chemistry was extraordinary.“This group has been fun because they’re all really good friends,”she said.“They love to have fun. All I had to do was talk Xs and Os of volleyball because they were being leaders and doing all the other things right.”...Davie finished 9-4, giving Brandon six winning seasons in six years and pushing her career record to a flashy 106-39....The success is showing no signs of slowing down.The var- sity had seven juniors and three sophomores,and the JV went 10-0. event,bringing together many people from diverse backgrounds to partici- pate in a shared interest and to help raise funds not only for St.Francis of As- sisi,but for local charities as well,”he said.

Johnson led with 10 points.Makenzie Gentry had eight,while Taitiyuanna Torrence and Carter had six each.Raney Phelps and Cat Rosser had four apiece. Ellis was paced by Lewis’ 14 points and three 3-point- ers.Bailey Aderhold had five,Kayden Richardson four and Emmie Burris two. Despite the loss,Brunelli saw plenty of positives. “Once all the players’ nerves lessened,they all began to play so much stron- go get -balls that kids have shanked or balls that have come off the block -that 99 out of 100 kids don’t pick up.She just has such a quick first step.She worked really hard in the offseason on her serve-receive game, and she’s a kid that does the little things right.She has a trainer and works out.She understands the importance of strength and condition- ing.She’s very,very disci- plined.She makes correc- tions.She’s super coachable. She’s a sponge.You give her information,she’s going to soak it up.Her digs would change the flow of a match.

Continued From Page B1 The CPC again showed its dominance in the team standings.West Forsyth took home the title with 69 points to narrowly defeat Myers Park (71)and Rea- gan (76)among the eight competing teams.Reynolds placed fifth with 120 points. Ethan Long of Page was the overall winner in 16:08 as he sprinted past Maddon Muhammad of Myers Park to claim victory by a quarter of a second.Page’s Jean- Lou Pare was just a second behind in third place with a time of 16:09.Muhammad, the son of former Caroli- na Panthers’wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad,came in as the pre-race favorite but was unable to hold off the Page senior as the top three finishers ran stride for stride throughout the 5k race. Team champion West Forsyth was led by a pair of sophomores,Brandt Doty and Wesley Haggstrom, who placed sixth and 10th, respectively.The West team depth was on full display as senior teammates Jere- my Eldredge and Jackson Nichols,who had claimed the top two spots at the CPC Championships,finished 11th and 14th. ••• Davie was not represent- ed in the girls’race due to the quirks of the qualifying process.The CPC was again dominant as Reagan (35), Myers Park (42)and West Forsyth (64)punched their tickets to the state meet, while Reynolds missed out after their fourth-place finish among the nine competing teams. Reagan’s sister act of senior Gwen Parks (19:09) and freshman Bronwyn Parks (19:27)took individ- ual honors.“It is unfortunate we did not get an oppor- tunity to race in the team competition,”said Davie coach Rob Raisbeck.“Our boys and girls would have probably each finished in fifth or sixth place.” Looking ahead,the Da- vie runners will take a short break before they resume Freshmen swimmers make noise against Reynoids “Jo and I put her in the breaststroke to see what she could do,and it surprised us just how fast she could go when racing a faster team,” Cundiff said. The Davie girls got sec- ond places from Abigail York (200IM),Lillian Seats (100 free),Thompson (500 free)and the 200 free re- lay (Seats,Kyleigh Hams- berger,Logan White and Thompson). Reynolds swept the meet by wide margins -115-51 on the girls’side and 113-41 for the boys.Still,Cundiff was anything but discouraged. “We may not have won, but we gave it a great fight,” she said.“They had us due to the size of their teams.We are small and mighty.” ••• Two days later,visiting West Forsyth was too much for the War Eagles.The scores were 131-34 for the girls and 126-29 for the boys. The Davie boys were second in five events:Davis in the 200 free;Harris in the 50 free;Shives in the 100 back;Davis,Kendal Hams- berger,Harris and Shives in the 200 free relay;and the same foursome in the 400 free relay. For the Davie girls, Thompson (200 free,100 free)was a part of all three second places.Elena Brec- hko,Kyleigh Hamsberger, White and Thompson were runner-up in the 200 free relay.

CPC stays the same after second realignment post The NCHSAA posted the second draft of the 2021-25 conference realignment on the realignment information web page. “This draft represents a sacrifice of time by com- mittee members to review and study all submitted suggestions and proposals,” Commissioner Que Tucker said in an update to schools about the second draft. “While the draft does not satisfy all wishes and wants of each member school,it does represent an intentional effort by the committee to be fair and consistent in its decisions relative to any changes in conferences from the initial draft.” Schools that are impact- ed or have changed from the first draft could formally appeal to the committee. The deadline for an appeal to conference placement in this second draft is Jan.21 at 4 p.m. The virtual appeal dates are Jan.27 for schools in the East and Jan.28 for schools in the West. The Central Piedmont Conference did not change from the first draft.With Mt.Tabor and Parkland re- turning to the league,there will be eight members.’The other six will be the same: Davie,East Forsyth,Glenn, Reagan,Reynolds and West Forsyth. training.“We have told our runners to take a couple of weeks off,”said Raisbeck. “The long season has been pretty exhausting both phys- ically and mentally.We need to recharge our batteries. The spring track season has been delayed and will run from April until late June. The indoor track season was cancelled;the only sport the NCHSAA decided to cancel this year.We will have our athletes resume running on their own after the two-week break and then start training as a team again on a limited basis in February.We still don’t know what the spring track season will look like from a competition stand- point,but we will worry about that in April.” As for the fall,the War Eagles are already looking forward to next year’s cross country season.The CPC is likely to go to an eight- team conference with the addition of traditional state title contender Mt.Tabor as well as Parkland.The Midwest Region will likely increase from the current 19 teams to 27. “Everybody is waiting to see where the Union County teams end up,”said Raisbeck.“If they are placed in the Midwest,we will be- come the Region of Death to borrow a soccer phrase.If they are placed in the West, then there would be com- petitive balance between the Midwest and West.If they end up in the Midwest,our region will be brutal.“ As for the teams’pros- pects,the future is bright for both Davie squads. “We only lose one varsity senior from each team,”he said.“Nate Brooks has been a four-year varsity runner for the boys and Presley Jones blossomed as a senior leader for the girls.We will really miss them.But every- body else will be back.We were missing a few potential varsity runners this season due to injury and opting out over COVID concerns. If everybody comes back healthy,we expect both teams to make a competitive jump next fall.” Grade Spicer and Presley Jones run for the girls,Nate Brooks and Owen Sulecki for the boys.

Adams is building Davie inch by inch,and everything in Year One is going to revolve around aggressive defense. “Defense is what our fo- cus is,”she said.“We want to up the pace on defense and force turnovers.We did that in the first quarter. But after a couple lapses on defense,we lost our focus.” And then;“We’ve been quarantined three times,so our girls were gassed in the second half.They were very tired.That’s just the times we’re in right now with COVID and everything.” Keelyn Oakes hit three 3 s to score a team-high nine points.Elizabeth Johnson had seven and London Dirks six.Olivia Tatum and Somer Johnson had three each. Malayka Rankin and Layla Caldwell had two apiece. Lawhon’s double-double not enough for JV boys By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record After winning each of the first two games by 21 points, the glow came off the Davie JV boys basketball team at West Forsyth.Davie had a meltdown in the third quarter and lost 41-37 in the Central Piedmont Con- ference opener on Jan.16. Giving up 20 offensive rebounds to the Titans and shooting 23 percent from the floor was not a winning formula. “This was a big JV team,”coach Tim Kenney said after Davie shot 13 of 55,including 3 of 25 on 3-point attempts.“We had to box out and we didn’t do it.They got too many second and third opportunities.Our shooting was horrible.Bot- tom line,we just didn’t play good enough to win.” After falling behind 10-6 in the first quarter,the War Eagles climbed back to a 16-16 tie at halftime.But they only managed four points in the third and dug a 29-20 hole. The deficit was 11 with 3:27 remaining.That’s when Davie charged back. Coleman Lawhon,Ethan Ratledge,Hunter Davis and Burke Rosenbaum were responsible for 17 fourth-quarter points as Davie got within two in the waning seconds.It had to foul with 11 seconds to go, and the Titan hit both free throws to seal Davie’s fate. “It was a great push,” Kenney said.“The kids kept fighting.They battled and battled and battled -but the damage was done already.” One of the few bright spots in an otherwise for- gettable day was Lawhon’s double-double.He scored seven of Davie’s 17 in the fourth and finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds (twice as many boards as the next man).The freshman guard also collected three assists,two blocks and two steals. “He is a high-energy. high-effort player,”Kenney said.“He just goes all the time.I mean he has one speed on the court,and that’s full speed.He really battled today.A lot of guys battled,but Coleman really laid it out there today.He didn’t shoot well -none of us shot well -but he crashed the boards and did a good job.” Hunter Davis led Davie’s scoring for the third time with 11.Ratledge had six points,six rebounds and two blocks.Zeb Pilcher had five points.Rosenbaum had five points,three assists and two steals. JV Girls The first Davie JV girls game in three years was a rough experience for the War Eagles.West Forsyth built a 15-point halftime lead and rolled over Davie 42-21. First-year coach Mamie Lewis got six points from Gracie Wilson and Peyton Spaugh.Gracie Spicer had five and Sydney Phelps four. Junior point guard Olivia Tatum penetrates and shoots. Freshman Malayka Rankin finds an opening inside.

CLASSIFIEDS HAS IT ALLI Place Your Ad Today!704-797-7682 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD Thursday,Jan.21,2021 -B9 Julia Tyler loved social aspects of being First Lady By Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino Correspondent The First Lady story of the John Tyler administra- tion is a bit complicated because there were not one but two First Ladies during the 47 months that Tyler served as President of the United States. Letitia Christian was bom on her family’s planta- tion in Virginia on Nov.12, 1790.The education that she received as she grew up in the family of a planter was much like that received by Martha Washington.She was taught how to care for a family,how to manage a household,and how to entertain guests,but she received little education in academic subjects. Letitia met a young law student,John Tyler,who was quite smitten with her. According to the book. First Ladies by Beatrice Gormley,“Tyler wrote to beautiful,shy,and religious Letitia and said,‘Whether I float or sink in the stream of fortune,I shall never cease to love you.’”Tyler and Letitia had a long engage- ment,and were married on March 25,1818. Tyler was a politician, who served as Governor of Virginia for two terms and as both a member of the U.S.House of Representa- tive and of the U.S.Senate. Mrs.Tyler basically stayed at Sherwood Forest,man- aged the plantation,and cared for her large family while her husband was in- volved in his political du- ties. She sure had a big family to care for—John and Leti- tia Tyler had eight children. One child died as a baby and the other seven lived to adulthood.Mrs.Tyler only went to Washington once during the nine years that her husband served in the Senate. In 1838,Letitia had a paralyzing stroke which left her tied to a invalid’s chair.She remained in her bedroom reading her Bible and Prayer Book,but she still cared for her family and managed the planta- tion. When William Henry Harrison died unexpectedly after serving as President of the United States for only 31 days,John Tyler, his Vice President,was at his home in Virginia.Vice President Tyler mshed to Washington either on horseback or in a carriage. After John Tyler became President,his wife moved to the White House,but she remained in her room just as she had done since her stroke several years earli- er.The only time that she was seen at a White House social function was at the wedding of her oldest son, Robert,to Priscilla Cooper. Letitia had a second stroke and died in the White House in 1842,after holding the title.First Lady, for just 17 months.She was taken back to the plantation in Virginia where she was bom for burial.Letitia was a shy,but lovely lady.Her daughter-in-law,Priscilla, is quoted in the book.The First Ladies of the Unit- ed States of America,by Klapthor and Black,as say- ing,“She was the most en- tirely unselfish person you can image,”and Priscilla also said,“She had every thing about her to awaken love.” Julia Gardiner was bom in 1820.Both of her par- ents were from wealthy and prominent families.Julia and other members of her family went to Washington for the 1842-1843 social season.Julia was a beauti- ful young lady with much poise.All of the unattached men in Washington ad- mired the young lady from New York.President Tyler, who was just out of mourn- ing for his first wife,also succumbed to the charm of Miss Gardiner.Letitia was not very interested in John Tyler,who was 30 years older than she was.The Gardiners,President Tyler and other were aboard the USS Princeton cmising on Potomac River when the ship’s captain fired a big gun.For some u nknown reason,there was a big ex- plosion.David Gardiner, Julia’s father,was killed. Julia fainted and was car- ried off of the boat by the President,who was unhurt in the explosion.After Ju- lia’s father’s death,Presi- dent Tyler comforted her in her grief and won her love.They agreed on a secret engagement.They were married in New York, in 1844—the wedding created quite a sensation, but evidently Julia and the President were happy.By the way,John Tyler was the first President to marry while he was president. Julia loved being First Lady.The book.The First Ladies of the United States of America,says, “As young Mrs.Tyler said herself,she reigned as first lady for the last eight First Lady Julia Gardiner Tyler and President John Tyler. months of her husband’s term.Wearing white satin or black lace to obey the conventions of mourning, she presided with vivacity and animation at a series of parties.She enjoyed her po- sition immensely,and filled it with grace.For recep- tions she revived the for- mality of the Van Buren ad- ministration,she welcomed the guests with plumes in her hair,attended by maids of honor dressed in white. She once declared,with truth:‘nothing appears to delight the president more than...to hear people sing my praises.’” After leaving the White House,the Tylers returned to their plantation,Sher- wood Forest,and seemed to be very happy there.Julia and her husband loved to entertain.They had recep- tions,dinners,and dances. They had a huge ballroom, the length of a football field,where the dances were held.The Virginia reel was the dance of the day. Mr.Tyler was proud of his young of his young wife‘s social skills. While living at Sher- wood Forest,Julia and John Tyler became the parents of seven children.(That meant that John Tyler was the father of 15 children— the most of any President of the United States.) Julia became a strong Southern sympathizer while living in Virginia and her husband became involved in the government of the Confederacy.He was a member of the Confeder- ate Congress,which met in Richmond.While serving there,John Tyler,former President of the United States,had a stroke and died—the date was Jan.18, 1862—Julia and John had been married 18 years. After her husband’s death,Julia Tyler moved back to New York,but she was not welcomed by her family because of her Southern sympathies.She was impoverished because of the depression of 1870. She applied to Congress for a pension but was not granted one until 1880, when Congress voted to give her $1,200 per year. After President Gar- field’s assassination Con- gress voted to give Mrs. Garfield,Mrs.Lincoln, Mrs.Polk,and Mrs.Tyler each $5,000 per year.That pension allowed Julia Tyler to live fairly comfortably for the rest of her life.She died in 1889 and was bur- ied by her husband’s side at Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond,Va. Sherwood Forest,the Tylers’home at Charles City,Va.,is a n interest- ing place to visit.It is still occupied by President Ty- ler’s grandson.The house is only open by appoint- ment and an appointment is hard to get.The grounds are open every day and the visitor can at least see the house,which is said to be the longest wooden house in America.

'iI BIO -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.21,2021 Child abuse cases escalating during pandemic By Jeanna Baxter White Word Master Media Group Amber’s (not her real name)step-dad had been touching her at night. The middle-schooler re- ported that “he had done some stuff to her that she didn’t want,”but it wasn’t until she went back to school in August that she was able to tell a teacher who reported the situation to law enforcement. Amber is just one of the 369 children devastated by the effects of sexual abuse, child abuse,or severe ne- gleet that The Dragonfly House Children’s Advocacy Center saw in 2020,accord- ing to Executive Director Brandi Reagan. Cases like this are on the rise during the coronavirus pandemic,magnifying trig- gers of abuse like increased poverty,food insecurity,fi- nancial hardships,and unre- lenting stress. She shared that national research indicates: •Increases in child mal- treatment are directly relat- ed to poverty,food insecu- rity,and financial hardships, all of which have risen sharply. •Unemployed parents are four times more likely to neglect their children and twice as likely to physically abuse them. •Parents with the lowest socio-economic statuses are seven times more likely to neglect their children and three times more likely to physically abuse them. •Food insecurity has a direct relationship to in-per- son education in that many families rely on school meals to feed their children. Dragonfly House Executive Director Brandi Rea- gan has seen an uptick in child abuse cases. •During the pandemic, nearly one-third of par- ents self-reported clinically meaningful symptoms of anxiety and depression. •Many parents are un- able to cope with parenting under the mental health strains of isolation from ex- tra-familial supports. “It is a heartbreaking fact that not every child is safe at home and not every home is equipped to support kids,” Reagan said. “Our agency has seen an increase of 31.5 percent in cases at the center in a four- month period (August-De- cember)over 2019 and 2018.This number would be larger except there aren't enough hours in the day, days in the week,or funding to double our staff,to allow us to see more clients.We added extra appointment days,implemented a new process for emergencies, and eliminated seeing cases from outside of Davie and Davidson counties.Prior to this pandemic we were see- ing kids from Yadkin,Surry, and Stokes counties because they do not have a center •Fully Insured /^N •Free Estimates •Tree Work &•Stump Grinding Tree Removal •Bucket Truck •Trimming &Thinning Service (336)909-0609 (336)909-0610 Scotty Seaford Jack Seaford 1166184 'Dr.'Rwerd^ Dental Tip efthe 'WIeek “Having stral^tteetli can Improve tlieir overall liealffi. Strai^tteetli are easier to clean,prevent food buildup, and are therefore less susceptible to decay.” Andrew J. Rivers DMD and our caseload accom- modated seeing those refer- rals,”said Reagan.“Since in-person school resumed we’ve seen double what we normally do,and I think that's a direct reflection of the coronavirus. “This is truly just the tip of the iceberg because kids are still not in a place to dis- close abuse.Most kids don't initially disclose abuse,the signs and symptoms are identified by trained adults, particularly teachers,who approach the child and ask, or have enough concern to make a report anyway.” COVID-19 has created the perfect storm.Although cases of abuse have escalat- ed,investigations have been delayed and prosecutions have come to a screech- ing halt because courts are closed.There have been no trials in Davie or Davidson since March. Hannah Whittington,de- tective corporal with the Da- vie County Sheriff’s Office assigned to crimes against person/child crimes,and a member of The Dragonfly House Board of Directors, explained what that means. “One of the biggest prob- lems we are facing right now is the absolute influx of cas- es.Children left with any- one,under whatever means necessary so that parents^, can find a way to work has resulted in an entire nation of children who have been left subject to an abuser.At first,things seemed to stay steady.However,in recent months,as COVID has con- tinned to shake and rattle the way we operate as a society, it’s finally hit.The storm we were anticipating,the mon- soon,is coming to shore.

There are so many children who need immediate help, and there aren’t enough of us to provide it.It’s not the normal cases either,the oc- casional mom that may have disciplined a little too hard, so Johnny came to school with a red mark on his hot- tom.It’s horrible beatings because parents are frustrat- ed and burned out,it's repet- itive,brutal rapes because Susie was left with the uncle who no one really wanted to leave her with,but they didn't have another option. It’s children being neglect- ed and abused because even adults are in a world they've never experienced,and no one knows what to do. “These cases always take a while to investigate because you have to be me- ticulous and thorough.But when you get a case,and you must wait two weeks for your victim’s forensic ser- vices,two weeks because an outside partner agency has been affected,two weeks because the courthous- es have been closed,two weeks because a key wit- ness has been affected,and two more weeks because the offender has been affected, months and months can go by before you can make a case decision.Then you fi- nally arrest your offender, but they get released with- out bond because they must keep as many people out of the jails as possible due to COVID.This is no one’s fault but it’s the cards being dealt right now. “Imagine having to look a victim and their parent in the eyes and tell them that their child’s rapist is going to walk the streets free for the foreseeable future.Try telling a child that is being abused at home that there is nothing that can be done right now because your hands are tied with road- blocks none of us could pre- pare for.We need solutions. I’m not sure what they are but we have to start some- where.” “Since COVID began,it seems like every child who comes in is being referred for therapy because they're just in crisis,”Reagan said. “That crisis may be directly related to the abuse or may just be because their family is in crisis.When you have parents with mental health needs that aren’t being met in a home with kids who have mental health needs that aren’t being met,you have a dangerous scenario of kids who need immedi- ate therapy services,and it's hard to get them in right away because there are so many referrals and so many kids in need,”said Reagan. “Disturbing trends have emerged that many profes- sionals in the field of child abuse and neglect are con- cemed about.These trends are only going to get worse for our community,leading to a child abuse and mental health crisis we are not pre- pared to handle.We need to begin the conversation with each other about what we see now,what we know is coming,and what we as a community can do to pre- pare for the impact of this crisis.” She urges everyone to join The Dragonfly House, along with its partners from law enforcement,social ser- vices,health department, and others for a virtual “town hall-style”conver- sation on Tuesday,Jan.26 at 6:30 p.m.The meeting will kick off with updates from the partner agencies followed by the opportunity for community members to share what they are seeing and experiencing. “I encourage every mem- her of our Davie and David- son County communities to join this conversation,”said Reagan.“Coming togeth- er for an honest and open conversation about the child abuse and mental health concerns that lie ahead is the best thing that we can do now to help our children face a brighter future.” Visit https .‘//attendee. gotowebinar.com/regis- ter/7054863939681073166.

Exercise outdoors Goal of new park is more families playing together By Mike Barnhardt Enterprise Record There’s a new park in Davie County,complete with walking and biking trails,a playground and adult exercise equipment. And there’s more to come in The Park at Lake Louise in the Hickory Hill neighbor- hood east of Mocksville,all the brainchild of local residents Dr. Joel and Beth Edwards. “We wanted a health park, where children could play, adults could play and with extended trails where people could walk or bike,”Dr.Ed- wards said. Open to the public only re- cently,the park is already be- ing used. “Our whole vision was somewhere for families to ex- ercise and have fun together,” she said.“I’ve always loved parks.” The idea started when the now late Bill Burnett decided to sell the Hickory Hill golf club. Edwards and his friend.Dr. David Duncan,had ideas.Dun- can bought part of the land,Ed- wards bought the rest.Duncan opened Colin Creek Golf Club, a 12-hole course that has been met with enthusiasm by the community. “Dr.Duncan and I thought the two could compliment each other,”Edwards said. Please See Park -Page 4 Officials tour proposed Blue Heron Trail project By Jim Buice Enterprise Record BERMUDA RUN -While getting positive news from the N.C.Department of Transpor- tation about moving forward with the Blue Heron Trail proj- ect in 2021,the town council here heard about continuing efforts for what Mayor Rick Cross refers to as “this vision of a connected Bermuda Run.” In the first meeting of the new year.Cross spoke about a recent tour of the property bor- dering 1-40 East that stretches from the pedestrian tunnel to the new pedestrian bridge with representatives of several gov- emment offices. The undeveloped tract, which is owned by the Hills- dale Group,features the Bahn- son Lakes and rough pathways throughout the unique proper- ty,which includes an old boat house and a dam. Cross and Town Manager Lee Rollins walked through the rugged terrain on a December afternoon with Kyle Bridges from Rep.Ted Budd’s office, Stephanie Blair with the office of U.S.Sen.Thom Tillis and Mike Finley from U.S.Sen. Richard Burr’s office. “We wanted to show them what this was,what this poten- tial trail area is and also some of the historical significance,” Cross said,“and we wanted to pick their brain on if there might be a possibility for fed- eral grant money or that type of thing.” Cross said that it was a bit of a challenging hike through the lake trails.“Well,there re- ally aren’t trails.It was a little rough out there.We were out there for two and a half or three hours.” Rollins quickly interjected. “I call it three.” “We thought a couple of times we were going to have to leave Lee behind,”Cross said with a laugh.“We started at the tunnel and walked them through,and I intentionally wanted to walk them up to the pedestrian bridge so we could stand at the pedestrian bridge and look across the bridge at WinMock and tie that back over to that area. “That’s what we get for some of the investment that’s made, and this is what we would like to do here.We don’t know at this point,but we’re going to pull every lever we can to con- tinue to push this vision of a connected Bermuda Run.” Kinderton Village is just to the north and west of the prop- erty while the new RISE In- door,a massive indoor multi- sports facility that is under construction,is north of the eastern side of tract,and Truist Sports Park is to the east.

I had been to a few games prior to this one,so I may have seen Hammerin’Hank Aaron hit other home runs, but this one was special. The Atlanta Braves were a doormat.They rarely won. But they had Hank Aaron.A real hero.Perhaps the greatest hitter ever to play the game (That is debatable, but Aaron has to be considered in any such conversation.) As he neared Babe Ruth’s homerun record,the stands at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium went from a few thou- sand a game to packed -almost every game. Hank started off 1973 pretty hot.For sure,he would break Ruth’s record sometime later that season. The Braves moved to Atlanta in 1966.1 became an im- mediate fan because I had been through Atlanta on the way to relative’s homes in Alabama.I had been by the park where Atlanta’s minor league team played before the Braves during game time,and was wide-eyed at all of the commotion.I wanted to go to a game. And as an active 9-year-old boy,I often dreamed of some day playing in the Major Leagues.I would throw an old tennis ball at a square painted onto the side of the smoke house for hours on end,dreaming I would strike out the final batter to win the World Series.I would hit rocks with an old wooden bat for hours on end,dream- ing I was hitting the game-winning homerun in the World Series. At night,I would listen to the Braves on a small tran- sister radio inside our home. My hero,of course,was Hank Aaron. And when he started getting closer and closer to Ruth’s record,I talked my parents into getting tickets to try to see the Hammer break the record.We got tickets for a September game in 1973,and although now a teen,I was super excited.I dreamed all of summer of watching him break the Babe’s record. But Hank went on a slump.He did hit No.709 while we were there -a day Fll never forget. But it was the next April before he broke the record. Hank Aaron was a poor black kid growing up in Mo- bile,Ala.Jackie Robinson had inspired him,and he want- ed to follow in his footsteps. It was a major step not only for his race -but for all of baseball -as he inched closer and closer to breaking Babe Ruth’s record.What happened during that time proved that Aaron was the better man. He received letter after letter of hate mail.He received death threats regularly.All were for one reason -he was black.Sure,he got some positive fan mail,but the vol- ume of hate speech thrown his way was incomprehen- sible.People hated him just because he was black. Let’s put this in perspective. Babe Ruth was a beer-swilling,cigar smoking,hotdog swallowing womanizer who could hit a baseball.I have to admit,I admire him too.Now that’s the life. Hank Aaron was a God-fearing,faithful,thrifty man who could also hit a baseball.Now that’s a better life. Those reams of hate mail may have put him into a slump that year,but he handled it with dignity.Hank Aaron didn’t brag.Hank Aaron didn’t taunt.Hank Aaron simply played baseball. “I need to depend on someone who is bigger,stronger and wiser than I am,”he wrote for Guideposts in 1973.“I don’t do it on my own.God is my strength.He gave me a good body and some talent and the freedom to develop it.He helps me when things go wrong.He forgives me when I fall on my face.He lights the way.” Not only are those wise wo^ds,they were words Aaron lived by. Hank Aaron wanted the homerun title,for sure,but he also knew that records are made to be broken.He said so at the time. He even called Barry Bonds,the steroid-taking slugger who broke his record of 755 career homeruns,to con- gratulate him.Now that’s class. Hank Aaron died last week.He leaves a legacy that modem professional athletes could follow.Just do your job to your best God-given ability. -Mike Bamhardt DAVIE COUNTY USPS 149-160 171 S.Main St.,P.O.Box 99,Mocksville,NC 27028 (336)751-2120 Published weekly by Salisbury Newsmedia LLC Robin Snow General Manager Mike Bamhardt Managing Editor Ray Tutterow Advertising Director Brian Pitts Sports Editor Mocksville Enterprise Davie Record Cooleemee Journal 1916-1958 1899-1958 1901-1971 Periodicals Postage Paid in Mocksville,NC 27028 Subscription Rates Single Copy,75 Cents $32.03 Per Year In Davie County POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to: Davie County Enterprise Record P.O.Box 99,Mocksville,NC 27028 —p ^ No surprise Davie has To the editor: Many thanks to Davie County’s Health Department,our county manager,David Bone,and the volunteer work of Special Event Services for the outstanding work they did with the drive through vaccinations last Friday. And not only to them but Sheriff Hartman,the deputies and the many volunteers who assisted them.The efficien- cy,speed and kindness with which you dispatched so many of us quickly,safely,and graciously was admirable and so typical of Davie County. My wife and I were honored to have been a part of it.Al- though we expected a terrible ordeal and therefore arrived Our Gift By Gaye Hoots We have a new year,and that is a gift.Last year saw many changes that we strove to adjust to,and this year promises even more changes.COVID vaccines are becom- ing available,which may eventually result in the reopening of schools,businesses,and the ban on group get togethers. I have had an anaphylactic reaction to a bee sting and will probably wait until later to get my shot.Some people did not wear masks,and there will be people who do not tmst the COVID injections.There have been many reasons for division this year,including politics. I have many friends in both political parties and was relieved to read on my Facebook account that no matter which party they are affiliated with they vow to support the new president.January twentieth is a date I remember for many reasons.It was the birthday of my ex-husband and the birthday of my stepson.We will see an inauguration with a robust military presence,because of a prior breach of security in the Capitol resulting in five deaths. This will not be a happy transition,but I pray it will be a safe one,and that our country will move toward unity. This past year has seen many changes I would never have predicted,including the gender term ban for Congress.If we focus our support,energy,and comments toward unity, it will help. Our community is a small one,and the people I know appear to have the same priorities I do.I focus on staying safe,sane,appreciative,and helping my family to do the same.Instead of focusing on things I cannot change,or negative happenings,I try to stay somewhat informed but, like Candide,I try to spend my time tending my garden. My garden is not a literal one but caring for myself,family, friends,and community. Whatever the future brings,I plan to appreciate each day.We have not had a war with another country,and all parents should appreciate this.We have our daily needs met;we have religious freedom;we are not persecuted. Let us direct our energy toward mending fences instead of fighting with our families,friends,and fellow countrymen. If we use our power to improve our attitude and behavior toward changing others,we can make this a better world that politics and COVID cannot destroy. A Golden Burst of Light By Julie Terry Cartner Black clouds covered the greying sky of dusk.Mock- ingbirds and wrens trilled their good-nights to the day as the sun slid silently ever downward through the obscuring clouds.The tranquil evening rolled calmly toward night. Suddenly,a gap appeared between the clouds,and,for a moment,the setting sun,in all its glory,shone blazingly through the rift. To the east,the trees encircling the yard,moments be- fore shrouded by shadows,blackened by the absence of light,now glowed with golden hues as if autumn,in all its technicolor glory,had returned,replacing winter’s barren- ness,with golden leaves clinging to branches left bare by winter’s trials.Seeming to reach out and grasp the golden beams like an aging woman tenaciously clinging to the vanishing vestiges of youth,pulling the glorious colors to- ward her as she might reach for hair dye,blush,or lip gloss, barren branches clung to the transitory rays of the sunset. To the west,fiery slashes of light lit up the bare trees from behind,their branches silhouetted so darkly against the fiery sky that each twig was starkly outlined in amber relief.The glow from the sun’s last stand seemed to set the woods aflame,and for a moment I could almost hear the crackle and ravenous roar of flames as they greedily con- sumed the trees and shrubs in their path. But only the soft stirring of a breeze,the gentle chirps of birds and the somber hoots of owls disturbed the stillness of the moment.The fire was only an illusion created by the overwhelming power of the sun. In minutes,or maybe only mere seconds,the clouds shifted,and darkness descended once again,the gaping hole that had allowed the sun to burst through closed its yawning mouth,consuming the fiery blaze and swallowing up the flames. Left now in darkness,the earth sighed and closed its bril- hant blue eyes,accepting the end of the day and drowsily embracing the soothing night.Peace covered the landscape and calmness prevailed,knowing full well the cycle would continue the next day. Isn’t that like life?We stumble around in the darkness of ignorance,of inexperience,sometimes of innocence,often consumed by clouds of anger,distrust,or fear.We cling to the last vestiges of light like we cling to the comfort of the past,fearful of the future.We strive for fleeting golden best vaccination rate early,with coffee and biscuits and a good book or two,we barely finished our breakfast in the car and neither of our books before we found ourselves back on 601 heading out, vaccinations received and behind us. Thank you nurses,deputies,and volunteers for your time,kindness,and the manner in which you did your jobs. Hats off to DC for a job well done and one of which we, and I hope many others,were proud to have been a part of. After seeing you all in action,we’re not surprised to hear we have been leading the great state of North Carolina with the highest vaccination rate.Let’s keep it up. Bill &Marcia Phillips,Mocksville rays,unable or unwilling to acknowledge that the darkness will come regardless,and the morrow,like the sun,will also come again. And maybe,just maybe,we need the darkness.Maybe we need the time to calm,to reassess,to rest and recuperate from the golden frenzy of each day.Maybe,if we embrace the tranquility of darkness,we will be able to look at our own lives,our choices and decisions,and determine our path forward.With clearer insight,maybe,over time,our minds,bodies,and souls,so overwhelmed by the exhaus- tion of life,by the overload of internet information,will be able to rest,re-group,and recover,to prepare for the light of another day. Maybe,if we can look at the brilliant explosions of a sunset through the black,ravening clouds as a brief gift,a fleeting glimpse of heaven,then maybe we can let them go for now and allow the darkness to take over for a while,a brief respite from the turmoil of the day,the time to prepare for another day of work,national and international news and social media. With Covid-19 still running rampant,violence and ha- tred barely suppressed,divisions of ideology creating chasms of distrust between family,friends and neighbors, let us try to remember that the world needs both the light and the dark,that there are many and variegated shades of both light and dark,and that those variances make us who we are as a people,a community and as a nation.Hold on to the light,but don’t clutch it like a baby clutches his favorite stuffed toy.Instead,let our fingers relax,knowing that even when the light slips away for a while,as you slip into soothing slumber,it will return with the dawn of a new day. Tatting By Marie Craig I have taught hundreds of women and two men to tat. This is a craft that uses small thread wound on a bobbin which is inserted into a three-inch shuttle.For about six dollars,you have the equipment to make beautiful,dainty lace.It’s small enough that you can keep it in your purse or pocket to enjoy whilst you’re waiting.I sometimes tat when I’m getting my car serviced or I’m seated in the doctor’s waiting room.I get some funny looks.Remarks to me are either “What is the world are you doing?”The second response is “Oh,my grandmother used to do that.” Then I’ll see the tears in the person’s eyes as they remem- ber their special family member. I really don’t like to fly,but went with my granddaughter out West four years ago.I swallowed my fear and did it anyway.My salvation was my tatting.I made sure I had it with me as a distraction.The female flight attendant came down the aisle checking on everybody and let out a loud proclamation,“Oh,my goodness!”I was concerned that my shuttle was suddenly deemed a weapon and that I’d be tossed from the plane.She continued,“I haven’t seen anybody tat in a long time —not since my grandmother!” I was,of course,relieved and hoped the other passengers knew the story. I taught tatting twenty-nine times at John C.Campbell Folk School near Murphy.One of the last times I did this,I made a comment something like tatting seeming fiivolous and non-essential.One of my students who was already a tatter,but came so that she could have a vacation and enjoy other students,disagreed with me on that statement. She had a doctorate in counseling,and her current job was counselor to the sheriff’s department in a big city in North Carolina.I had never thought about PTSD except for those in the military.But she shared with us how stress- ful and upsetting it can be to have a law enforcement job Please See Renegade -Page 3 Letters Welcome The Enterprise Record welcomes letters from its readers on topics of local,state,national or inter- national issues.An effort will be made to print all letters,provided they are not libelous,vulgar or in poor taste.The editor reserves the right to edit letters for grammar and for space.Letters should include the name and address of the writer and a signature.A telephone number,not to be published,is requested.

The Literary Corner Renegade Writers Guild DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.28,2021 -3 Cana/Pino Sarah Polk involved in politics while First Lady By Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino Correspondent There is a connection between two First Ladies and our state,North Caro- lina. The wife of the fourth President,James Madison, was bom near Greensboro. The wife of the 11th President,James K.Polk, went to school at Salem Academy in Winston-Sa- lem. So in addition to Presi- dents of the United States having connection to the Tar Heel State,so did some of the First Ladies. Sarah Childress was bom near Murfreesboro, Tenn.to a wealthy plant- er and his wife,Joel and Elizabeth Childress.As she grew up,she had the advan- tages afforded by wealth. She went to a boarding school in Nashville,Tenn., and then to Salem Acad- emy.Her good education would be most helpful to her in years to come. James Knox Polk,a young lawyer,was bom in North Carolina and gradu- ated with honors from the University of North Car- olina in Chapel Hill.PoUc went to work as a clerk at the Tennessee Legis- lature.He didn’t think his career was advancing as fast as it should so he asked his friend,Andrew Jackson,for advice.The former President advised him to settle down and get married.Andrew Jackson even had a wife picked out for him—Sarah Childress. James K.Polk was an ax- dent supporter of President Jackson so he took his ad- vice.To make a long story short,James K.Polk and Sarah Childress were mar- lied in 1824.Sarah was 20 years old and her husband was 28.

The Polks had no chil- dren so Sarah devoted all of her time to assisting her husband.He tmsted her opinion more than that of any other person so she served as his secretary and advisor. After serving in the House of Representatives for 14 years,James K.Polk decided to mn for Governor of Tennessee.Sarah served as his campaign manager who arranged his sched- ule and did all the other jobs that were required of a campaign manager. He was elected,and Sar- ah continued to assist him while he was in that office. She seemed much happier talking about things polit- ical than subjects which normally interest ladies. James K.Polk decided to seek the office of Vice President.He was definite- ly ambitious.There were many problems during the Democratic convention as the delegates tried to name a candidate for President. After much maneuvering and with the support of the former President Andrew Jackson,James K.Polk was named the Democratic can- didate for the President.He was called “a dark horse” candidate.It seemed that people did not know much about Mr.Polk,but,in spite of that fact,he won the election.Sarah and James moved into the White House and Sarah continued to work as his secretary and chief advisor. The book.First Ladies Who Called the White House Home,by Beatrice Gormley,may describe Sarah Polk,First Lady best. It says,“As the result of a bitter election race in 1844, James Polk was an unpopu- lar president,but everyone seemed to like and admire Mrs.Polk.She entertained in the White House with confidence and pleasure al- though more sedately than Julia Tyler had.A devout Presbyterian,Mrs.Polk did not allow card-playing or dancing.”It is said that the dancing at the inaugural ball stopped when the Polks entered the room.Sarah and James were much more devoted to the work of the presidency than to social activities.Someone said that Sarah worked so hard or was so busy discuss- ing politics that she would sometimes forget to eat. All the books about presidents and their wives, talk about how hard the Polks worked.They worked,worked,worked. Even though President Polk was not universally liked, he was able to accomplish a number of things that are important in the history of the United States.President Polk only served one term. At the end of that four year term,the Polks,who were worn out,returned to their home,called Polk Place,in Nashville,Tenn.President Polk died three months af- ter he returned home on June 15,1849,at the age of 53. Sarah put on mourn- ing clothes after the death of her husband.She was seldom seen in any other clothes for the rest of her life,and a long life it was. Sarah lived about 40 years after the death of her husband.Sarah made Polk Place a museum dedicat- ed to her husband.During the Civil War,Sarah en- tertained troops from the North and the South.Polk Place was considered neu- tral territory and was never harmed in any way during the war.Sarah continued to live at Polk Place the rest of her life with her adopt- ed daughter,who was her niece,Sarah Jetton Fall. Sarah died in 1891 at the age of 87.She and her husband are buried on the grounds of the Tennessee State Capitol.James Knox Polk is the only United States President who is bur- ied on the grounds of a state capitol. Polk Place,the Polks’ home in Nashville,was tom down as has been the fate of many historically significant places in this country.Mrs.Polk’s ad- opted daughter,Sarah Fall, was able to save many fam- ily possessions which are now at the James K.Polk Ancestral Home in Co- lumbia,Tenn.Those items owned by the President and his wife make a visit to the Federal-style Ances- tral Polk Home interesting. That house in Columbia, Tenn.is the only house still standing where James K.Polk actually lived oth- er than the White House. That house is normally open to the public,but may not be now due to the pan- demic.Call before visiting any of the presidential sites became they have all kinds of schedules.There is a replica of the birthplace of James K.Polk at Pineville, N.C.There are guided tours at that replica as well as a 25-minute film about Polk shown before the tour. Your assignment this week is to find out what the 11th President,James K.Polk,accomplished with the help of his wife,Sar- ah,during the four years that he served as Presi- dent-1845-1849.A study of his administration is inter- esting.

It’s a requirement to count and focus on the different parts of the directions of the lace,or round doily,or stationery embellishment.If you crochet or knit and make a mistake, it is fairly easy to pull out the errors.Tatting,however, demands that you untie each individual knot that is wrong. So,you don’t want to make mistakes. I had a more pragmatic view of this art form once she explained this.Tatting has been helpful to me as I’ve trav- elled to teach:five one week sessions in Utah and local classes through the years.As tatting has embellished dress and blouse collars for me,it has also embellished my life in offering trips to other locations,meeting new students, and winning a few ribbons in competition. The conversations of the students were interesting. One woman was an advisor to the President of the United States.All she would tell us was that she was involved with South Africa.Students have ranged from teachers, nurses,attorneys,a card dealer on a river boat,and librar- ians.I learned so much from them. Oh,the men...One of them was present in the class with his wife.He learned quicker and had beautiful sam- pies of his work.He did far better than his wife,and boy, was she mad.The other man was a young architect.He surpassed any student I’ve ever taught. *7*ee Si •Fully Insured •Tree Work & Tree Removal •Trimming &Thinning •Free Estimates •Stump Grinding •Bucket Truck Service (336)909-0609 (336)909-0610 Scotty Seaford Jack Seaford SHORE iKm.lstelieicestatgsnUe.ean Construction included in pricing:^ Freight To Site (100 Mile Radius StatesvilleTNC),Concrete Footers Per Plan,Split Block Foundation Per Plan,Professionalj With Split Space Block Current Walls/HVAC System Heg|j pPump Sized To Home,"Plumbing &Electric Hook Ups ToB lExisting Service;Interior And Exterior Trim Out,2 Quqlity.Stegj Built ToCpurity Codef.More lncJuded!|||BSiSa I HOME FEATURES:^'" Finish^Sheetrpck &Painty ( Pendant Lighting Above l^cl^rTBarj Quality Constructior^Throughajt,^P Deluxe AppliahceJPackage^^^^ Dining Room,Living RooitT^ Larhinote Floonng In’Dining^J^^fc &Living Room ^wesorhe Kitchen With “nPantiy|fi*i Island With Grantte CounterJop^M Large Master BatiTOom'Wrh Walk-In Grouted Showenfc; Ma^Other Features!^ DININQ ^0mX)M 3 PLEASE ASK FOR DETAILS!klASTER KOFiOOMUVtiGinOOM8eUROOM2 ffm/eei ’Prices do not include closing costs,land,or site improvements to land.Prices subject to change without notice.Pictures may show upgrades not included in price. 119 Beechnut Lane •Statesville,NC •Exit 148 On 1-40 HOME CENTERS 4 -DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD,Thursday,Jan.28,2021 Park... Continued From Page 1 There is a children’s playground,accessible to the left after turning onto the Colin Creek drive.It in- eludes equipment designed for children age 2-5,and other equipment for those age 5-12.There are three adult exercise machines so adults can exercise while watching their children play,Edwards said. The trail system also starts there,and meanders down to the lake and back. Future plans call for picnic shelters,a fishing platform and a gathering place for small concerts or productions.There is “The Great Meadow”where people can play ball or toss a Frisbee with their dog. The park is open during daylight hours. Edwards got help from the Davie Economic De- velopment Commission, the Davie Community Foundation,the Davie County Hospital Founda- tion,Davie Recreation & Parks and Novant Davie Medical Associates. Parks are becoming more important as more people move into the area, and people have less ac- cess to outdoor spaces,he said. “As rural as we are, and as much as we’ve got, we’ve got a limited area for people to be outside doing healthy things like walking and playing,”Ed- wards said.“This property really is pretty,with rolling hills and the lake.” The park is dedicated to Edwards’late wife,Linda, “known for her love of children.” A grand opening will be held in the spring. Dr.Joel Edwards is pleased with the progress and opening of The Park at Lake Louise,and looks forward to more park de- velopment on the shores of the lake.-Photos by Robin Snow Logan and Aubrey Dillow play on the teeter-tot- ter,above.Below,Aubrey tries her best to ride in the flower.

Continued From Page 1 project runs parallel with US 158. That project,which has a $2 million price tag,had to be put on hold last year because of NCDOT budget challenges.Eighty percent of the projected construe- tion cost is to be paid by federal highway funds. However,NCDOT has reached out to the town about proceeding to bid the project and worked out the details so that Phase I can be completed this year,accord- ing to Rollins. In other highlights from last Tuesday night’s meet- ing,the council: •Approved one service agreement to install seven streetlights on Allgood Street from US 158 to East Kinderton Way and one ser- vice agreement to change out 68 existing streetlights within Kinderton Commer- cial to mimic all other light- ing in Kinderton Commer- cial with traditional black poles and LED lights. •Presented checks of $4,000 each to Lisa Foster of Family Promise of Davie County and Chad Brown of Wake Forest Baptist Davie Medical Center.The money was raised from more than 100 donations made for the Bermuda Run Community Christmas Tree project. Cross said it was the idea of three community mem- bers -Roseanne Peacock, Sharon Reid and Christy Schafer -“and the number of people who jumped into this was amazing.It’s some- thing that will be with us for quite some time.” Foster thanked the coun- cil members and said that the donated funds “will help us keep families in their housing.The phone calls are really starting to pick up now with the new year and all sorts of changes happen- ing.” Brown echoed Foster’s gratitude,saying “this will really help support our em- ployees,and in return,if we support our employees, we’ll be able to support the community for health care needs.” •Heard from Rollins that Brian Myers,tax admin- istrator for Davie County, will appear before the coun- cil Feb.9 to discuss the tax revaluation process. •Also heard from Roll- ins,who said that Asplundh, which is contracted by Duke Energy to do tree trimming, will be soon be trimming Leyland Cypress trees along US 158.

Updates are posted on the Davie County Govern- ment website and the Davie County Health and Human Services Facebook page. The health department and schools worked out a plan early on to provide vaccinations to school em- ployees who want one. Davie County Schools is among a handful of districts that have been balancing the everyday rigors of in-person and remote learning since Aug.17. While students and staff are doing remarkably well, Davie County Schools re- fuses to accept that thi^is the new normal,said Jeff Wallace,superintendent.' The leadership team is eager to resume classes as they once were and contin- ues looking forward,taking advantage of new opportu- nities for the safest environ- ment possible in schools. One important step in this effort is to ensure vaccines are available for all em- ployees of Davie County Schools,he said. “This is the next step our community is taking for a healthier future,”said Wal- lace.“As one of the coun- ty’s largest employers,we have an obligation to our staff,students and commu- nity to put forth the needed effort to ensure vaccines are available for our employees. We are offering vaccines for safer,healthier schools and communities.” Vaccination of employ ees began on Wednesday, Jan.27.The second vaccine for employees will be on Friday,Feb.19.Given the concerns for possible side effects with the second vac- cine,Friday,Feb.19 will be a remote learning day for students,with more com- munications to come for families. “Our staff has been working harder than ever,” said Wallace.“Teachers, custodians,nurses,bus driv- ers,administration and sup- port staff;I am proud of our hard-working staff.They are all contributing their talents and expertise to the ben- efit of our children.We’ve proven that we can do any- thing when we lean on one another and work together.I can’t tell them enough how much I appreciate what they do every day.” Since the pandemic be- gan,the DCS School Nu- trition staff has served ap- proximately 4,500 meals a day to children.More than 1,000 devices have been provided for students and Wi-Fi connection points and community partnerships are increasing internet accessi- bility. Safety protocols and health screenings continue in all schools every day. While academic perfor- mance continues to be a challenge for school dis- tricts around the state.Da- vie County Schools is dedi- cated to sharing curriculum, mental health,and safety resources with families,in- eluding weekly updates on COVID cases in schools. “We are making a strong effort to dot our I’s and cross our T’s,making sure we are doing everything we possibly can for our stu- dents,staff and families,” said Wallace.“We are com- mitted to their success and that starts with a healthy, safe,and secure learning and working environment.” Much of this article is from a news release from Davie County Schools.

The nightmare losing streak came to an end. The War Eagles were 0-2, losing by 41 to West Forsyth and by 15 to Reynolds, when they hosted South Iredell in a nonconference game on Jan.20.How many fans gave Davie a chance considering the Vikings were 2-1 after victories over Statesville and East Row- an.The loss was a 67-61 shootout with West Rowan. They were averaging 56 points per game.(Davie had only managed 70 total in two games.) But Davie put everything together and beat South 53- 47 to end a 28-game losing streak.During the long dry spell,only one loss came by single digits;the other 27 were by 11-plus points.The average scoring during the streak was 57-24. “When I got in the locker room,they were spraying water and celebrating the win like we won the national championship,”Adams said. “It was a milestone for ev- eryone.It’s my first season and for some of these girls it’s their first win ever at Davie.So it was really nice to experience that moment together.” Davie trailed 8-3 before finding its rhythm.Rebecca Devericks made a skip pass to Keelyn Oakes,who nailed a 3-pointer with 1:10 re- maining in the first quarter. It was 21-14 before Davie closed the first half on a 7-1 spurt.Olivia Tatum hit two free throws.Elizabeth Johnson finished inside off a pass from Oakes.Then Tatum passed to Oakes with time running out.The horn sounded with her 3-ball in the air.It splashed to cut the halftime deficit to 22-21. “I put a new play in today to beat their 2-2-1 and the girls executed,”Adams said. “Their focus to take what I said in the walk-through and execute it showed me how far we’ve come.” Davie caught South at 28-28 when Tatum assisted an Oakes triple.It grabbed its first lead at 31-30 when Tatum drove for two with 2:12 left in the third. That play ignited an 11-2 run.Devericks got a steal and dribbled down for a tough two.On a fast break, Tatum hit E.Johnson for a layup.Layla Caldwell found Oakes for an open 3 that found the bottom of the net.Then Tatum stole an inbound pass,went coast to coast and converted a layup over a defender to provide a 40-32 lead. Kaylyn Nuckols gave Davie its largest lead (45- 36)when she scored on a putback with 5:12 to go in the game.At clock-milk- ing time,Davie spread the floor and let Tatum,Dever- icks and Oakes go to work. Oakes threw inside to E. Johnson,who finished with a layup.At 49-41 with 1:55 on the clock,it was all but over. E.Johnson displayed spectacular shooting on the way to 21 points and six rebounds,hitting nine of 11 field goals.The previous varsity high for the soph- omore was 18.She put up the most points by a War Eagle in 29 games,dating to Morgan Lewis’22 in a 59-47 win over Reagan on Feb.15,2019,which is also the last time Davie tasted victory. “Elizabeth did great,” Adams said.“We gave her the ball at the high post and she had the mindset to score. I’ve seen that in practice but we hadn’t seen that in a game.” Tatum,the junior floor leader,was a defensive ge- nius while compiling 13 points,nine steals,six as sists and four rebounds. She made 7 of 10 foul shots while surpassing her pre- vious varsity scoring high by one. And Oakes was huge from the outside,hitting 4 of 10 3s to score 12 points, three more than her old varsity high.She also had three steals,three rebounds and three assists. It was the most points by Davie in 29 games.Oh, and one thing more:It was the first time that Davie put three scorers in double figures in 74 games.(Rylea Carter,Trinity Hayes and Lewis had 12 each in a 68- 43 loss at West Rowan on Nov.28,2018.) “All three stepped up and showed me they wanted Please See Win -Page B4 The athletic Za’Haree Maddox was the star vs.EF.-Photos by Mark Floyd Maddox,Davie edge East By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record Even after being quar- antined for 13 days,even though visiting East Forsyth ripped off a 17-3 run in the second half,the Davie var- sity boys basketball team found a way to survive a blow-for-blow shootout, 74-72,on Jan.22. East,which was 2-1 in the Central Piedmont Con- ference after losing 49-48 to Glenn and beating Reagan (49-40)and West Forsyth (45-43),slipped to 3-2 over- all.Davie improved to 3-0 in its CPC opener. “It was exciting,”coach Mike Absher said.“We were locked down for seven straight days.I said:‘Let’s not be that team that uses COVED as an excuse.We’ve got to dig deep and make the best of it.” Alex Summers,a backup guard,provided a huge lift off the bench in the first quarter.After checking in with 4:42 left in the quarter, he immediately ran across the baseline to the right cor- ner.He received a pass from Zymere Hudson and drained a 3 to give Davie a 10-8 lead. On a fast break,Za’Haree Maddox hit Summers,who converted a layup over a defender.Summers passed it inside to Avery Taylor, who scored.Then Taylor dished to Summers,who nailed a 3 from the comer at the 1:11 mark.In a superb stretch of three minutes,31 seconds.Summers scored eight points.Davie had a 22-17 lead despite East’s 8-of-ll shooting.Actually, both teams were scorching -Davie started 7 of 10 from the field. “It was unbelievable,” Absher said of Summers’ outburst.“We ran an out- of-bounds play for him right off the bat and he buried it.It was good for him.He’s very deserving of that shining moment.” East went cold,missing seven straight shots as Da- vie surged to a 30-18 lead on Taylor’s inside basket. Then East got hot again, hitting six of seven shots at the end of the half to pull within 34-32. Thanks to the first of three technical fouls on East, Davie had a five-point pos- session in the third quarter. Summers was in trouble in the left corner but found Hudson for a layup and a 54-43 lead. But right when it ap- peared as if Davie was going to win without much stress. East went on a massive mn. A four-point play sparked a 17-3 spree for the visitors. They hit eight of nine shots and roared to a 67-64 lead with 2:38 to play.Absher called timeout. “I said:‘Guys,this is all about mental toughness. We’re tougher than they are.We’re going to win this game,”’he said. Maddox took over,his two free throws triggering the game’s final run and cutting the deficit to one. He jumped to tip an inbound pass,Hudson recovered the loose ball and threw a bounce pass ahead to Maddox,who was fouled. He hit both to give Davie a the lead. East missed inside and Taylor controlled the re- bound.Justus Tatum re- bounded his own miss and passed to Hudson,who was fouled and hit both. Then East called a timeout it did not have,resulting in the third technical foul. Maddox converted one foul shot.With Davie holding a 73-70 lead at :12,East had to foul.Maddox hit one to seal the deal. Maddox put up a beastly line:18 points,six assists, five rebounds,four steals and one block.The junior floor general was his usual excellent self at the line, hitting 13 of 15 foul shots. “Za’Haree was the key to the game,”Absher said.“We tried to make sure he got the ball as much as possible.” Taylor played a big role, scoring 12 points on 6-of-9 shooting and adding seven rebounds and two assists. “He does a great job of taking up space when guys penetrate,”he said.“He does two things:He has his hands ready all the time and he reads it,takes up space and catches the ball where he can finish at the goal.

When it was over,coach Tim Kenney couldn’t have been prouder.Davie won going away,52-33. “I told the guys in the locker room:‘That’s how you bounce back from a loss,”’Kenney said.“The kids played hard.The kids come with a high degree of energy every night.” The War Eagles scored the final 12 points of the first,and the run was 25-8 by the end of the half.In the third,they pushed the 25-16 lead to 38-26.In the fourth, they kept pulling away. “After that (8-0 defi- cit),it was pretty much our game,”Kenney said. Coleman Lawhon,who had a double-double against West,continued his upward arc with 19 points,seven rebounds,three steals and two assists.He converted 6 of 8 free throws.This gave him 19 rebounds in two games.Not bad for a 5-11, 128-pound freshman. “Coleman had a really good game on both ends of the court,”Kenney said.“He creates a lot of his own shots off of defense.He passed the ball well.He played a complete game.” Hunter Davis was a nice complem'^nt to Lawhon, scoring 13 points and pull- ing down eight boards.He shot 50 percent from the floor and added two assists and two steals. “Hunter battled inside,” he said.“We had a size advantage on them without a doubt.” Zeb Pilcher had six points,nine rebounds and two steals.Burke Rosen- baum had six points.Brodie Smith had three points,three steals and two assists.Carter Helton had three points. Ethan Ratledge had two points,three assists and two blocks. “Zeb can play inside,”he said.“He’s long and he can jump pretty well.He’s active around the rim.” E.Forsyth 58,Davie 52 At East Forsyth on Jan.

North led 19-18 at half- time,but Ellis took a 35-31 lead into the fourth.It was 41-34 at the 4:21 mark. Gooch called timeout and set up the fullcourt press. Then Landon King,David Patton,Connor Hood and Brady Marshall came to the rescue. The comeback started with a King steal.He passed to David Patton,who put in the layup.King got another steal,drove and missed, but Hood was there for the putback. Hood’s heroics were only beginning.He drained back- to-back 3 s to turn a three- point deficit into a three- point lead.Marshall hit two free throws to make it 46- 41 North.Ellis’Braddock Coleman answered with a triple to pull Ellis within 46-44 at :52,but King hit two free throws to clinch it. “I’m really proud of how our kids battled in the fourth quarter to pull out the win,” Gooch said. Hood had 19,Marshall 13,King 12 and Patton four as the Wildcats (1-1) beat Ellis (1-1)for the sixth consecutive time. “Lando was our floor leader,”Gooch said.“He played hard and brought a lot of energy.Brady had a huge presence in the post and played with four fouls in the fourth quarter.Connor was cool as the other side of the pillow down the stretch.” It was a punch in the gut for the Jaguars,who got 13 points from Adam Brown, 12 from Jackson Powers, 9 from Coleman,5 from Thomas Essie,3 from El- liott Erlandsson and 2 from Ethan Driver.The Jaguars missed 24 of 31 3-point tries. “It was a tough game,” Ellis coach Ted Boger said. “We played hard and had our chance to win.” ••• Gavin Reese and North overwhelmed South Davie 58-33 on Jan.21.The vis- iting Wildcats scored 11 of the game’s 12 points in the second quarter to build a 27-12 halftime lead,and they continued to pound in the third. Reese knocked down three 3s to score a team-high 15 points.Hood had 12, King 10,Marshall eight and Patton five.William Carter and Logan Vandeweerd had three each and Jackson Sulecki two. “Defensive pressure was the key,”Gooch said.“We were good at creating turn- overs and making baskets in transition.Gavin is a big In- diana fan.Tonight he played like a real Hoosier hot shot. Connor and Landon were both really good at driving to the basket and scoring off the fast break.We also got some nice play from guys off the bench like Jackson and Isaac (Swisher).” Landon Waller led South with 12.Kobe Thompson had seven and Brayden Kistner five.TK Little,Zi Robinson and Jarek Stanley had two. North improved to 2-1 while South fell to 0-3. ••• Ellis hung around for a half,but ultimately the Jag- uars couldn’t keep up with Wesleyan in a 55-34 home loss on Jan.21. Ellis was behind 9-8 in the first quarter and 29-21 at the half.The Trojans ex- tended the margin to 43-28 in the third. “We played hard,”Boger said.“We just ran out of gas.We played better than our last game at North.Our boys play hard every game. They leave everything on the floor.I cannot ask for a better group of young men.” Powers was the standout with 14 points,giving him 36 in three games.Brown had seven,Wade Bomar six and Essie three.Conner Dixson and Driver had two each. “Jackson just keeps get- ting better,”Boger said. “We got him the ball more tonight.” Ellis could have certainly used Coleman,who left the game in the first quarter with an injury. Notes:Ellis (1-2)has lost five straight to Wesleyan.... South Davie lost at home to Wesleyan on Jan.19. South girls beat North for 16th straight time By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The South Davie and Wesleyan Christian Acad- emy girls basketball teams have had a series of great battles in recent years,and last week was another. The Trojans,though, have gotten the best of South lately.Last year they beat South by two in the con- ference tournament cham- pionship game,after the teams tied for first in the regular season.On Jan.19, Wesleyan pulled out a 31 -29 decision at South. It was South with the upper hand early.Jay den Carter delivered six points to give the Tigers a 9-3 lead in the first quarter.Wesleyan countered with a 13-7 spurt in the second as the teams were tied at 16 at the half. It was 20-20 after the third. South fell just short,eve- ning its record at 1-1. Emmy Johnson had 10 points,Makenzie Gentry eight and Carter seven. Raney Phelps and Taitiyu- anna Torrence had two each. ••• North Davie routed vis- iting Ellis 50-30 on Jan. 19.North improved to 2-0 while Ellis dropped to 0-2. Although the teams split two games last season,the Wildcats won for the sev- enth time in nine meetings. North had balanced scor- ing,led by Avarie Martin’s 13.Jaden Sink had nine, Kaylee Lynch eight,Nadalie Jones seven,Raelyn Lank- ford six,Callie Wisecarver four and Hannah Meacham three. Bailey Aderhold was amazing in defeat,scoring 18 points on six 3-pointers. Kaylee Lewis had 10 and Emmie Burris two. ••• The Tigers rode a blis- tering first half to a 49-39 home win over North Davie on Jan.21. Gentry poured in nine points in the first quarter to lift South to a commanding 15-5 lead.The gap was 28- 13 at halftime. “The first half was one of the best halves of middle school girls basketball that I’ve seen in a while,”South coach Morgan Wyatt said. “We were hitting shots and working down low getting rebounds.” The Wildcats cut into the margin in the third.With Kaylee Lynch and Jaden Sink providing offensive sparks,they cut their deficit to 35-26.But South (2-1) easily held on to raise its series winning streak to 16. Gentry had 16.Phelps buried two 3-pointers and scored 12.Carter had nine. Johnson and Torrence had six apiece. Sink paced North (2-1) with 12.Nadalie Jones had nine,Avarie Martin eight and Lynch six.Hannah Mea- cham and Callie Wisecarver had two. “We’ve got to work more on on-ball pressure,but our guards are young and they do a good job listening and adjusting,”Wyatt said.“So I’m excited for the rest of the season.” Notes:Ellis lost 32-18 at home to Wesleyan on Jan. 21.The Jaguars dropped to 0-3.Their scoring:Lew- is 12,Aderhold 3,Quinn Comatzer 2,Kay den Rich- ardson 1. Williams scores 48 in 2 wins for freshman boys By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record The Davie freshman boys basketball team,led by Gavin Williams,obliterated two opponents in its first week of the season. The scores were 55-30 over visiting West Forsyth and 60-39 at Atkins. Against West,coach Mike Dinkins’War Eagles blew it open in the third quarter,extending a 24- 16 halftime lead to 43-22. Sebastian Bellomo,Cooper Bliss,Eli Branham and Williams buried 3-pointers during the 19-6 run.Wil- liams had eight of the 19, and Bliss pulled off a rare four-point play. “It was a good win,” Dinkins said. Williams did the most damage with 17 points.Bel- lomo.Bliss and Branham had nine each.Trey’von Doulin,Ty Matthews and Grant Wilson had three and Jason Hawks two. “I was even more im- pressed with Gavin on the defensive end,”Dinkins said.“He easily had a dou- ble-double;he had at least 10 rebounds.He had two blocked shots on top of that. “We changed defenses a bunch and I told (point guard Branham):‘You’ve got to be my quarterback.If I don’t call a defense,you’ve got to call one.’He did a great job. “Ty gave us a lift on defense.He scrambled after loose balls.” ••• Williams had an enor- mous offensive explosion in the 21-point win at Atkins, scoring 31 points,including 10 during a 16-0 blitzing in the first quarter.He had 48 of Davie’s 115 points through two games. Bellomo,CJ Phelps and Bliss had six each.Doulin had five.Evan Froelich, Branham and Matthews had two. “Ty played well on both ends of the floor,”Dinkins said.“He didn’t get many points,but he made some good passes. “CJ had some good mi n- utes.He got at least 10 rebounds.He’s one of the hardest-working kids we’ve got. “Cooper had a good night on both ends of the floor.We played excellent team ball and our traps worked.” Upcoming Games Wednesday,Jan.27 Davie varsity girls basketball at home vs.Carson at 5 Davie varsity boys basketball at home vs.W.Forsyth at 7 Thursday,Jan.28 Davie girls lacrosse at West Forsyth at 5:30 Davie JV/varsity boys lacrosse at home vs.West Forsyth at 5/6:45 South Davie basketball at home vs.Wesleyan Christian Academy at 4/5:15 Ellis basketball at North Davie at 4/5:15 Friday,Jan.29 Davie varsity basketball at home vs.Reynolds at 5/7 Davie JV boys basketball at Reynolds at 5 Tuesday,Feb.2 Davie varsity basketball at West Forsyth at 5/7 Davie JV girls/boys basketball at home vs.W.Forsyth at 5/7 Davie freshman boys basketball at West Forsyth at 4:15 Davie girls lacrosse at home vs.Reynolds at 5:30 Davie varsity boys lacrosse at Reynolds at 6 South Davie basketball at North Davie at 4/5:15 Ellis basketball at Wesleyan Christian Academy at 4/5:15 Wednesday,Feb.3 Davie varsity basketball at Glenn at 6/7:30 Davie JV boys basketball at home vs.Glenn at 5 Davie freshman boys basketball at home vs.Tabor at 4:30 Continued From Page B1 to score,”she said.“They were really big.Keelyn hit big shots.” But Adams said it was Davie’s zone-trapping de- fense that pleased her the most.Tatum’s nine steals,in particular,is jaw-dropping stuff. “We forced so many turnovers,”she said after South shot 22 percent (13 of 59).“Keelyn and Rebecca are at the top of our defense, and a lot of the steals came from their pressure on the ball handlers.” Devericks contributed three points,three rebounds and two steals.Nuckols had two points and four rebounds.Malayka Rankin had two points,seven re- bounds and five steals.Cald- well pulled down six boards. “Malayka was hustling and diving on the floor,”she said of the freshman’s first appearance in the starting five.“The little things go unnoticed.She made a lot of things happen defensive- ly to give us a spark.She earned the start because she had 13 rebounds against Reynolds.” Notes:Before hosting S.Iredell,Davie trailed by 21 after the third and lost 53-38 at Reynolds on Jan.19.E.Johnson had 12 points,Tatum eight,Lon- don Dirks seven,Devericks four,Oakes three,Somer Johnson two and Caldwell two....Two days after the huge win over the Vikings, Davie hosted East Forsyth in Central Piedmont Con- ference play.It was not a happy night.Davie (1 -3,0-3 CPC)was crushed 86-42.E.

T housands are rush- ing to get a new hair restoration method based on surprising new studies from the University of Cal- ifornia. It is the world’s first and only hair loss solution that revives dead hair fol- licles.And studies confirm it helps men and women regrow a thick,full head of hair,even after years of balding. Now,with news of this breakthrough spreading like wildfire —the manu- facturers are struggling to keep up with overwhelm- ing demand. That’s because,unlike other methods,it is pre- scription-free,drug-free, and has no side effects. And while hair transplants can cost $4,000 or more, this new approach costs pennies on the dollar and doesn’t involve going to the doctor’s office. Instead,it leverages cutting-edge technology to prevent hair loss,fill-in embarrassing bald spots, and renourish thinning hair —with results you can see and feel in 30 days or less. As Jeanne F.from San Diego,CA reports:“When my husband began to use this product,all he had on top of his head was fuzz. His hair began to grow af- ter 30 days and now it is about 2 to 3 inches long!” Surprising 'Diith About Hair Loss It is commonly believed that hair loss is hereditary. Unfortunately,most people think there is noth- ing they can do to stop it.However,while many doctors will tell you that thinning hair,a receding hairline,and bald spots are due to your genetics, this is not the whole story. “While genetics play a role,it’s not the main reason you lose hair,” says Dr.A1 Sears,the na- tion’s top anti-aging doc- tor.“And surprisingly it’s not just your age,thyroid, hormones,stress,or a vi- tamin deficiency,either.” The latest scientific re- search reveals that hair loss is primarily caused by the stem cells in your hair follicles dying. “This discovery is a true breakthrough because by reviving these stem cells on your scalp,you can stop hair loss dead in its tracks and trigger new hair growth,even in areas that have been thinning for years,”explains Dr. Sears. Now,at his world-fa- mous clinic,the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine in Palm Beach, Florida,Dr.Sears and his team have used this game-changing discovery to develop a brand-new hair restoration formula that is taking the country by storm. Sold under the name Re-Nourish,it is flying off the shelves with men and women of all ages raving about the results it deliv- ers. “I have seen a signifi- cant improvement in hair growth.Previously,you could see thinning areas at the back of my head and now hair has grown over tario,Canada. And Susan D.from Fort Pierce,Florida reports, “My hair was thinning.So, I began to use Re-Nourish every day on the front pari of my scalp.Now I have thicker hair.” Dr.Ai Sears,M.D.,is America’s leading anti-aging expert.He’s authored more than 500 scientific papers, and his discoveries have appeared on more than 50 media outlets including, ABC News,CNN,ESPN, Discovery Channel,National Geographic,Lifetime,and many more. Regrows Hair In Just 30 Days Scientists now know that stem cells are the lifeblood of your hair fol- licles. Research from the University of California shows they’re the reason you’re able to grow hair. However,these stem cells aren’t always active.In fact,studies reveal they’re only active during certain phases of the hair growth cycle. “Your hair grows in three phases,”explains Dr.Sears.“First,you have the anagen phase,the hair growing phase.Then the catagen phase,when hair gets ready to shed.And finally,the telogen phase, where your hair is pushed from the follicle and falls out.” As you get older it be- comes harder for your hair follicles to complete this three-phase cycle.The re- suits?Your hairs get stuck in the telogen phase.This is when they start falling out and stop regrowing, no matter what you try. This process doesn’t happen overnight,says Dr.Sears. “At first,your hair dries out,becoming brittle, thin,and harder to style. Then,you start finding hairs on your pillow and down the drain.Finally, you’re left with bald spots that age you prematurely.” Fortunately,Re-Nourish puts a stop to this.It re- vives the dead stem cells in your hair follicles and reactivates your hair’s three-phase cycle,trigger- ing new growth in as lit- tie as 30 days —even in areas that’ve been balding for years. Reawakens Dead Hair Follicles For years,scientists couldn’t figure out why hair follicle stem cells died. However,a study from the University of Califor- nia finally found the an- swer.. It has to do with T-cells —an important immune cell in your body.The re- searchers discovered these T-cells are the only way to command hair follicles to grow new hair. More importantly,they showed that T-cells helped revive the stem cells in your hair follicles —spur- ring new growth,filling in bald spots and natural hairline. Re-Nourish uses a unique blend of all-natu- ral ingredients.By spray- ing it on your hair once per day,scientific studies show you can revive dead stem cells and improve the appearance of thicker, fuller hai.r. For example,the key nutrient of Re-Nourish was tested on a group of severely balding women. After 6 months,nearly 70%of the women saw significant improvement in hair growth.Their hair was noticeably full- er,thicker,and healthier looking.Most exciting of all,they grew new hair on parts of their scalp that had been bald for years. In another study,Ital- ian researchers gathered a group of both men and women with thinning hair and applied the core ingre- dient of Re-Nourish.After 12 weeks,they reported a staggering 74%increase in hair growth. “It’s really mind-bog- gling that my hair started growing back,”says Zan R.,another Re-Nourish customer. With results like this,it’s no surprise that demand for Re-Nourish is soaring. Thousands of men and women are scrambling to get their hands on the lim- ited-supply available.
