It watched as Daniel Boone crossed with his family in his lifelong trek westward. It watched as General Corn-wallis crossed in the Revo-lutionary War, and General Stoneman in the Civil War. It watched as family members from each war fought each other. What:Book Launch, ‘HistoricShallow Ford’When:Saturday, Sept. 10Where:Shallow Ford Daylily Farm, 5336 Courtney-Huntsville Rd., YadkinvilleTime:10 a.m.-2 p.m. The history of Shallow Ford on the Yadkin River is really a history about this area, says author Marcia Phillips. Phillips enjoys her work at the Davie library, preserving and recording local history. - Photos by Mike Barnhardt Historic Shallow FordNew book a labor of love for author And most likely, last week, it watched as some kayakers made their way down the river.In between, millions of footsteps and horsesteps, tens of thousands of wagon wheels have made their way across the river at Shallow Ford - the only ford this side of Salisbury in its heyday.Marcia Phil-lips, the his-torian in the Martin-Wall History Room at the Davie County Public Library, start-ed to think about this place called Shallow Ford.In her new book, “Historic Shallow Ford in Yadkin Valley - Crossroads Between East and West,” she wrote: “Shallow Ford is a very organic place, built by no man and subject to the forces of nature more than any man or government.

Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 Cooleemee Journal 1901-1971 Texas, LBJ sites worth the visit Good riddance Junker’s Mill To the editor:It was interesting to see the article on LBJ and the fam-ily’s Texas home in the Aug. 25 newspaper. It brought back good memories from our trip there a few years ago. It was a fabulous, and very educational, place to visit. Regardless of your political opinion of President Johnson, the histori-cal worth and interesting sites make the time spent there worthwhile.You can visit the small home, LBJ’s birthplace, and see the little schoolhouse in Stonewall. It will give you an idea of his humble beginning and family life as a child. Driving through Stonewall won’t take long. It’s a small town, but is worth seeing.From there, definitely head to Johnson City and plan to spend a little time at the Lyndon B. Johnson National Park Visitors Center. It has many interesting exhibits relating to the lives of both Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson. There are two films shown in the center, one about Lyndon’s years as President, and the other about Lady Bird’s life and her accomplishments as First Lady. You’ll be surprised at all you’ll learn here, and about the contributions Lady Bird made to the country. There are photos and items on exhibit from their years in office, as well as from their life in Texas.Lyndon was fond of flying his own plane back and forth to Washington. The airplane hangar on the site is now a Visitor Center and information stop for the LBJ Ranch Dis-trict. His plane was on display at the ranch when we vis-ited. He called it “Air Force One-Half.” There are also lots of displays on ranch life and work, as well as on the Space Race. Visitors can listen to some of the telephone calls the President had with several well-known people, and also watch the short film “Our Heart’s Home.”From the Visitors Center, it’s a short drive to the LBJ Ranch and “Texas White House,” which is also now a part of the LBJ State Park and Historical Site. The first floor of the house is normally open to the public, but I understand it may be closed at the moment for some repairs. The most interesting thing about the house is that it looks just as it did during Lyndon’s Presidency, and you can walk through it all. It’s like walking back in time. The guided tour gives lots of details about their life there, their guests, and things that happened on the ranch during that time.There is also a hangar on the ranch in which you can see Lyndon’s car collection and other memorabilia, including Lyndon’s German-built Amphicar. He was known for tak-ing unsuspecting guests “off-roading” and straight into the lake on the property. There is also a great short film that is actually a home movie made of President and Mrs. John-son giving a tour of the ranch.The park encompasses around 700 acres, and includes the Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm. At the Visitors Center, you can get a map and free permit to drive around the ranch property. You can also see there a short historical film on LBJ at the ranch, as well as exhibits and displays on pioneer life in Texas, the Hill Country, and the Presi-dent. The site is open year round, other than for a few ma-jor holidays, and so worth the visit.Should you be a little hungry from all that, you might want to drive out to Marble Falls, Texas and have a meal at the Blue Bonnet Café. The Café is known for it great food, but all I can tell you is to be certain you save room for pie.(And maybe get one to take with you for later.)If you happen to spend some time in Austin while you’re in Texas, the Texas Capitol, completed in 1888, is lovely to see, and the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum tells the “story of Texas”. It includes a special effects show called “The Star of Destiny”, and an IMAX theatre featur-ing several entertaining movies. You’ll recognize the mu-seum right away by the 35-feet-tall bronze Lone Star out front.The Blanton Museum of Art has a wonderful collection of all types of paintings, prints and drawings, and usually has a couple of additional exhibitions going on. The Uni-versity of Texas at Austin has a great display and exhibit, thanks to Lady Bird’s love of wildflowers, at their Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.Fredericksburg, Texas, in the Hill Country, is just a short little drive from the LBJ ranch, too. It’s a great town known for its German heritage, and its wineries. You’ll love the sights and the food there.These are just a few sites that can give you more in-formation: https://www.nps.gov/lyjo/planyourvisit/visi-torcenters.htm; https://www.bluebonnetcafe.net/; https://www.wildflower.org/; and https://www.visitfredericks-burgtx.com/.Gaye Schooler, Mocksville Brain TypesBy Marie CraigI vaguely remember taking a psychology class some-where, but as we know, experiences and observations give us the most insight about human behavior. I have surmised that people possess different inherent ways of thinking and doing. One definite way of catego-rizing folks is whether they’re auditory learners or visual learners. Example: we were helping our son and his wife move about ninety miles to their new home. When we were finally all packed up, I asked for specific directions. (This was before smartphones, GPS, and online maps.) As my daughter-in-law gave me verbal directions for each turn, I drew a map on a piece of paper. To double-check, I showed her what I’d drawn. She said, “Eeek, I don’t do maps!” I realized that she is a verbal person, and I am a visual person. As years went by, she could take their six children into a fast food restaurant and ask each one indi-vidually about food choices and then order correctly with-out writing anything down. I wouldn’t have remembered one of them. Teachers need to be aware of this difference in function-ing. If the teacher just calls out the homework assignment, there could be a child who could not relate to this and fol-low directions. Another difference in thinking is the ability to multitask. Most mothers are experts at this. Focus on this image: a mother is standing at the range stirring the pot of food while talking on the phone while gesturing to her child to get his dirty shoes off the dining room table while pushing the dog away from the cat’s feeding bowl. However, there are people who cannot do this. There are those who can do only one thing at a time. Some wives say their husbands are like this. If he is focusing on the ballgame on TV, it’s fruitless to tell him that company is coming for supper. He will deny that you ever said that. It seems to me that these strong traits cannot be changed, and that they must be accepted. Many an argu-ment or fight would be avoided if people realized that other folks are pretty much doing as well as they can.

When they finished a couple approached with 3 hulking boys who looked like football players with a height of at least 6 feet and a minimum of 200 pounds weight. They spoke of riding as children and the mother asked them to pose while pretending to ride the ponies. She snapped several pictures and they walked away. A few minutes later I heard the music from the ride and went to see the children enjoying the ride. The older couple were gone, and those 3 young men were riding unashamedly with their long legs stretched in front of them, their full weight on the tiny ponies, while they licked ice cones with a happy smile on their faces.We took cake by Bob and Betty Potts, but the children and I remained in the car feeling this might be too much for Bob who is 92 years old. I looked up and saw Bob using his walker, and Betty walking out to see the girls.I also took cake to Sam and Judy Howard.

The SunflowersBy Julie Terry CartnerEveryone loved Mr. and Mrs. Meyers, better known as Miss Emma and Mr. Walter. They were the grandparents that many children didn’t have, the neighbors that every-one wanted, and ta support system for frazzled parents. At any church activity, undoubtedly, Emma and Walter would be there, donating their time and energy wherever needed. When young mothers went to choir practice, Emma would babysit their babies. When scouts needed a mentor, Wal-ter was their man. At Christmas, Walter was always Santa, and Emma his elfin helper. Although childless themselves, Walter and Emma had countless surrogate grandchildren.So, when Miss Emma became sick, and subsequently died, the church community grieved, but nobody grieved more than Walter. Emma had been his wife, his friend, and the love of his life. Nobody knew how he would survive the loss. Unbeknownst to the adults, however, the children gathered, mourned the loss of their Miss Emma, and made a plan. They couldn’t bring her back, but they wanted to give Mr. Walter his joy back. Please See The Sunflowers - Page 11 It’s like another era has passed for us old timers.EnergyUnited, formerly Crescent Electric, formerly Da-vie Electric - has moved out of Mocksville. Gone. See you later.The company that started here in 1939 to extend electri-cal service into rural areas is no longer here.EnergyUnited’s property in Mocksville, including Junk-er’s Mill, is for sale. And considering its location and size, it will be sold.The closure was inevitable as our move from a mobile, person-to-person society is moving more and more toward one that stares at a cell phone while paying a bill rather than interacting with a person; a society that negotiates through a phone tree rather than explain a problem to a person. That’s sad in some ways, but pretty darn conve-nient, too.It will be interesting to see what happens on that piece of property, bordered by Valley Road and Salisbury Street, and still a part of the downtown area.One thing is for sure, thanks to folks like the late Bill Foster, Tami Langdon and Mike Gunning - some pretty amazing concerts and events took place at Junker’s Mill. Remember the Marshall Tucker Band? The Tams? Foster, then a town commissioner, was right in suggest-ing the location for a music venue. It was a perfect slope for an ampitheater. The energy company allowed the town to use the site, which was good. The bad part was the site was never improved. Parts of the building were falling in, with only a stage and small storage room available, and they weren’t anything to brag about. Looking out from the stage, Mike Cross said it best when playing a concert there: “Welcome to Mocksville Asphalt University.” He was looking at three parking lots and a street. Yes, the site was right, but to have been successful, it would have to have been developed into an ampitheater, not just using the parking lots for seating. Concerts on the street are more popular.And that’s just what the town is doing. Phatt City and Envision will perform from 4-8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 17 as part of a Summer Beach Days promotion.See you there. The stage will be on the street - right above what’s left of Junker’s Mill.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 1, 2022 - 3 Presidential sites By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise Any Person from Davie County who has visited the home and burial site of the 36th President of the Unit-ed States, Lyndon Baines Johnson, probably thought that they had to travel a long way from Davie County to visit that site. They did have to travel a bit over 1,200 miles. If that same person wants to visit a site con-nected to the 37th Presi-dent, Richard M. Nixon, he or she will have to travel twice as far. The distance from Mocksville to Nixon’s birthplace in Yorba Linda, Calif, is 2,407.2 miles. Richard Nixon was born in Yorba Linda in a small house built by his father. It is believed that Mr. Nixon built the house using mate-rials from a kit he ordered by mail. The house has 900 square feet of living space, which is indeed small for a family of seven. Richard Nixon had four brothers. Richard Nixon’s birth-place is open to the public. It is in the same area as the Nixon Presidential Library and the graves of Richard and Patricia Nixon. Those seem to be the only Nixon sites open to the public. In-formation about the Nixon Site is available at 714-993-5075.When Richard Nixon died on April 22, 1994, his body was carried back to California from where he was living, and the funer-al was held in front of that little house where he was born. The Rev. Billy Gra-ham conducted the funeral, which was attended by all of the former presidents who were living at that time, 100 foreign dignitar-ies, and 3,000 other people. Richard Nixon was buried in the beautiful garden near his birthplace beside the grave of his wife, Patricia, who had died on June 22, 1993, about a year before the death of her husband.A great deal had hap-pened to Richard Nixon, who was sometimes call Dick, between the time that he was born in that small house in Yorba Linda, on Jan. 9, 1913 and the time he was buried there in 1994.The Nixon family moved from Yorba Linda to Whittier, Calif., where Richard’s father ran a store and a filling station. The Nixon boys worked in those establishments. Richard was able to take piano and violin lessons at some point which is what his mother wanted him to do. He became an accom-plished musician. Richard attended elementary school and high school in Whittier and attended Whittier Col-lege where he excelled and finished second in his class. He then came to North Car-olina and attended Duke University where he grad-uated third in his class. After graduation, Nixon went back to California and joined a law firm there.Nixon heard about an attractive young teacher in the local school and he made it a point to meet her. Nixon was immediately attracted to Thelma Ryan, who was called Pat, but the young lady was not quite as impressed with the young lawyer. He proposed right away, but Pat kept giving Dick a brush off. She final-ly relented. They were mar-ried on June 21, 1940. In 1941, Nixon felt that he should serve his country in its time of crisis so he joined the U.S. Navy.When he got out of the Navy, the Republicans in a California district were looking for a person to run against Jerry Voorhis for the U.S. House of Representatives. Nixon was chosen, and won the election with the support of his wife in that and in the many elections in which he was involved in the fol-lowing years. After serving two terms in the House, Nixon ran for the U.S. Sen-ate and won in that elec-tion. After serving just two years in the Senate, Dwight S. Eisenhower chose Nixon as the person to run with him as vice president when he sought the presidency. Mr. Eisenhower with Rich-ard Nixon serving as vice president was elected twice and served eight years. In 1960, Nixon was chosen as his party’s can- didate to run against John F. Kennedy. Nixon did not fare well so he went home to California. He decided to run for governor, and he lost that race. At that point Mr. Nixon seemed to be bitter. He moved back east but stayed in the good grac- es of the Republican Party. In 1968, Nixon was chosen by the Republicans as their candidate for president. He won with Spiro Agnew as his vice president. From the time he was elected president, Nixon seemed like a loner. There was a great deal of secrecy about what was going on in the Oval Office. In spite of that, Nixon was able to ac-complish some things par-ticularly in the field of for-eign relations. He opened up relations with China, but the war in Vietnam was still a problem as it had been with President Johnson. It finally ended without victo-ry. Nixon won the election in 1972, but there had been a break-in at the Democrat-ic headquarters at the Wa-tergate. There seemed to be a connection between that break-in and the Nixon ad-ministration. Nixon himself was named as an unindicted co-conspirator. Hearings about the Watergate affair went on and on. Finally, enough evidence was pre-sented that even President Nixon’s advisors told him that he should resign or he would be impeached. Nix-on took their advice and re- signed on Aug. 9, 1974, the only President of the Unit-ed States to ever resign. He and his wife boarded an aircraft to carry them back to California. Even as he boarded that aircraft, Rich-ard Nixon had a look of de-fiance on his face.The Nixons lived qui-etly in California for some time and then moved back east to be near their chil-dren. Mr. Nixon began to appear in public a bit but the shadow of Watergate was always with him. Pat Nixon died first and was buried near the Nixon Li-brary in Yorba Linda. The former president died about a year later and was buried beside his wife. The Nixon Presidential Library and Museum is in the same area as the Rich-ard Nixon birthplace and grave. It is a large modern building which tell the Nix-on story as he would want it told. There is emphasis in the building of Mr. Nix-on’s success in the foreign relation field. There is one room which has wax fig-ures of the foreign dignitar-ies with whom Mr. Nixon dealt. Those figures are so life-like that it seem pos- sible that they might start talking. Another section of the building deals to some extent with Mr. Nixon’s family.It’s a long way from Mocksville to Yorba Linda, but a trip that is necessary if one wants to visit a site connected to each President of the United States be-cause there is no other sites connected to Mr. Nixon that are open to the public. Good news for those interested in presidential history—the Reagan Li-brary in Simi Valley is just 75 miles from Yorba Linda so those interested can visit sites connected to two pres-idents during one trip to California. The house where Richard Nixon was born in Yorba Linda, Calif., and the gravesites there of he and wife Pat. All open sites related to Nixon are in California Pat and Richard Nixon.

For Phillips, it really wasn’t work because of her love of history and preserving history. She got it honestly, her father was also a historian.“It turned out to be a history of this whole area. It was the grand central station of folks going from east to west, from north to south.” The Great Wagon Road crossed at Shallow Ford.She estimated more than a million people crossed the river there. The number will never be known.“To my knowledge, you never had to pay because it was a natural phenom-enon.”Phillips, who has what she calls the perfect retire-ment job as the part-time historian in the library - is no stranger to history. She also authored the book “Davie County Mavericks,” about Daniel Boone, Thom-as Ferebee and Hinton Helper and Peter Ney.She holds a master’s in education and taught his-tory for 30 years, and went back to earn a master’s in historic preservation. She’s worked at the Henry Ford Museum and at Old Salem.She moved to Davie County to live on family land with husband Bob in 2013. She remembers spending almost every summer at the home of her grandparents on Mc-Clamrock Road, Doc and Mae McClamrock. She remembers when the Davie County Public Library opened its current build-ing in the mid-1960s. “I thought it was a cathedral. I remember a kid’s section, they had a series of books on historical figures.”Her love of that library hasn’t wavered, espe-cially of the history room, where she said she gleaned probably 80 percent of the research that went into the book about Shallow Ford.And while she loves re-searching and writing about history, she also enjoys helping others in their quest to learn more about their past.Phillips remembers looking out the window one day and seeing a “Rent Me” RV pull into the park-ing lot. It turns out there was a woman from Idaho, who years ago had stopped in for a quick visit to the library’s history room with her husband en route to the beach. After he died, it was on her bucket list to visit that room again - one that possibly held information about her ancestors.Sure enough, it was that woman and her sister. They had been stopping to see sites along the way, but their ultimate destina-tion from Idaho was the Martin-Wall History Room at the Davie County Public Library. Phillips found out all information she could provide them about their family, even pinpointing their original location on an old settler’s map.The women were ec-static. They left the library waving out the windows of that big RV, smiling and shouting “thank yous,” headed for KFC. They were getting food to take for a picnic they planned to eat on their ancestor’s land.Of all the sites they had seen between Idaho and Mocksville, it was the one they discovered in the his-tory room here that made them the happiest.“It’s a joy to work in here,” Phillips said. “There’s a parade of people dedicated to history. It’s a privilege to be the keeper of the treasures here.” Shallow Ford ... Marcia Phillips shows an historic land deed, one of many treasures in the Davie library’s history room. - Photos by Mike Barnhardt Phillips shows some of the more recent donations to the library, including a letter from World War II bombardier Col. Thomas Ferebee, who said in the letter the only times he felt he wasn’t being used was when he came back home to Davie County. The library has volumes of historical works on other counties, not just Davie. DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 1, 2022 - 5 This is the ninth in a se-ries highlighting the people and organizations behind the named scholarships ad-ministered by the Davie Community Foundation. “We believe young peo-ple need to know something about the people or orga-nizations for whom their scholarships are named. Hopefully, they will feel even more motivated to suc-ceed,” said Jane Simpson, foundation president and CEO.Dorothy Rucker Graham ScholarshipThe Dorothy Rucker Gra-ham Scholarship was es-tablished in 2006 by Doro-thy’s daughters, Angela G. Robinson and Dr. Regina Graham. This scholarship is awarded to a graduating senior at Davie High School each year that has a finan-cial need and shows success to achieve academically. Dorothy is the daughter of the late James and Ila Ruck-er. She graduated valedicto-rian at DC Training School in 1953. She continued her education at Salisbury Busi-ness College. Working in funeral service became her lifetime career. She was licensed as the first female funeral director in Davie County in 1962. She is also a licensed Notary Public, N.C. Insurance Agent, and certified by the American Red Cross as a disaster and shelter coordinator. After working in the fu-neral industry for 40 years, she opened her own busi-ness, Graham Funeral Home in 1997. While in business, Graham was a member of the N.C. Funeral Directors, the Mocksville Rotary Club, Davie Business Women’s Association, and Healthy Carolinians. She supported Davie United Way, Relay for Life, CareNet, Davie Domestic Violence, and Smart Start. She served sev-eral terms as a board mem-ber of Davie County Dept. of Social Services and is a member of Clement Grove Church of God where she has served as treasurer for more than 30 years. In Oc-tober 2019, she sold her business to Lambert Funeral Home and began enjoying retirement.Mrs. Graham’s motto: “Set your goal, pursue it diligently, and let nothing cause you to come short of success.”Bobby and Bernice Knight ScholarshipBobby and Bernice Knight were wonderful, dedicated partners for more than 58 years. The partner-ship ended with Bobby’s passing in 2011, but Ber-nice took action to keep that partnership alive through this scholarship. Bobby was an all-around athlete and outdoor sports-man all of his life. He en-joyed golfing, hunting, and fishing. His last love was flying. According to Ber-nice, “Bobby was like a boy at Christmas” when he got his pilot’s license. He actu-ally bought his first plane before he got his license.Bobby had a good “navi-gation system” in life and in business, too. He was an ethical, trustworthy, fam-ily man. Bobby moved to Mocksville to serve as the State Farm agent where he remained for 33 years. His partner Bernice was always with him, and they worked together while raising their family and growing their business. Bobby shared his talents with his community and church, where he served faithfully. He was elected and served the people of Da-vie County well for 3 terms as county commissioner.During his life, many awards were given from State Farm. He received the “Life Traveler Award,” State Farm’s highest des-ignation, eight times. State Farm called him “a knight in shining armor” when they recognized him for his service.Their commitment to helping students continue their education through this scholarship is a wonderful gift to the community that Bobby would be proud of.

Samuel ‘Sam’ Loraine CopeSamuel “Sam” Loraine Cope, 87, of Brevard, passed away at Tore’s House #3 on the morning of Aug. 25, 2022.Sam was a well-loved professor of theater and music at Brevard College for 29 years. The theater productions he directed with his students were a cultural high-light for students and community members alike. Part of his legacy was restoring an old barn to create the Barn Theatre. Following in his mother’s footsteps, he learned to play piano and organ. He began his career as a church organist, in high school at Liberty United Methodist Church in Mocksville, NC. His fi-nal post, which he held for almost 40 years, was at Church of the Good Shepherd in Cashiers, NC. One of his greatest joys was music.He was a real-life Santa Claus and often donned the red and white suit for college and community events. His magnificent white beard, rounded middle, and jolly nature made him an obvious choice. His family knew he didn’t need the suit because he was the real thing. Children would excitedly point and whisper whenever they saw him. One young fellow ran up to him and pulled on his shirt tail. When Dad said “hello,” the little boy said, “I’ve been good, sir. I’ve been REAL good!” Sam was a musician, actor, artist, and gardener; everything he made (pottery, stained glass, copper enameling, macrame, needle crafts, basket weaving, jewelry, and paintings) expressed his love of life. His custom-designed and superbly dressed teddy bears were legendary. Each bear came with its number on a clay heart necklace and a small tag that read “Bears by Sam .” His horribly bad pun-filled jokes were also legend-ary, and he shared them eagerly with everyone. You could tell when he had a new joke to tell from the twinkle in his eye. The joy he found in telling you each new joke was a ray of sunshine for your day, and the memory of those smiles will be forever in our hearts.Sam was a best friend, loving husband, quiet leader, dedicated teacher, empathetic listener, lifelong learner, tal-ented artist, musician, comedian, philosopher, and the very best dad. He excelled at being his true self, and inspired everyone around him.Survivors include: his wife of 65 years, seamstress, quilter, and co-hobbyist, Claire Pinkerton Cope; sister, Marie Ellis (Fred) of Mocksville; brother, David Cope (Cheryl) of Baton Rouge, La.; 3 daughters, Katherine Louise Cope, Deborah Lynn Aiken (Clayton), Carol Lo-raine Lowe (Dennis); a son, Anthony Lane Cope (Susan); 2 granddaughters, McLean Annette and Logan Elizabeth; his trusted companion Spring; and over 850 handcrafted teddy bears.We will all miss him terribly. While our lives will be a little less grand, Sam was ready for a new and larger can-vas to create joy. When we meet again, I fully expect to see every angel with their own teddy bear.Online condolences: www.moodyconnollyfuneralhome.com. Continued From Page 2Once the plan was made, they recruited their parents to help. Walter always had a beautiful yard, full of lovely gar-dens. Since Miss Emma became sick in the early spring, Mr. Walter hadn’t had the time or energy to plant, but ev-eryone knew how much he loved his flowers. On one Fri-day in late spring, several of the dads took Mr. Walter to a baseball game. This would require an overnight stay in Atlanta, which would give the children time to carry out their plan. Early Saturday morning, the children, along with their parents, went to Walter’s house armed with garden tools and seeds. After studying mythology in school, especially the story of Clytie and Helios, the children had decided that Mr. Walter needed sunflowers to surround his house. “Mr. Walter loves Miss Emma the way Clytie loved He-lios,” they said. And so, the group spent the day tilling and planting Walter’s yard with a variety of sunflowers.When Mr. Walter returned from the ball game, he was grateful for the yard work that the families had done, but he had no idea about what had been planted. As spring turned into summer, he watched the sunflowers grow, then almost overnight, they bloomed. Large, yellow faces turned towards the sun and followed its path across the sky. Smaller red and gold flowers, almost like sunsets, filled the gardens with more beauty. Soon the centers became seeds, and then the goldfinches arrived, darting between the flow-ers, waltzing with monarchs, a myriad of swallowtails, and cabbage whites. Hummingbirds flitted to and fro between flowers, and songbirds warbled amongst the leaves.Each morning, when Walter awakened, he was greeted by the glory of the sunflowers and their guests: the birds and butterflies. One would have to have a hard heart to resist the beckoning beauty, and, little by little, he let the children’s gift fill his heart with joy. Though he still mourned Miss Emma, he knew she wouldn’t want him to shut himself away. So, when the flowers were at their peak, he invited the children and their parents to his house for a thank you picnic. Good food, great music, and the laughing shrieks of children playing in the yard filled the air. When everyone had eaten, Mr. Walter stood up and said a simple thank you. “Miss Emma would have loved these gardens. I believe I can see her in the smiling faces of the sunflowers, in the grace of the butterflies, and in the harmonies of the birds. Thank you, dear children and parents, for giving Miss Emma back to me. I love you all.”*Sunflowers have a remarkable ability to absorb toxins, including toxic metals and radiation. Following nuclear disasters such as Chernobyl and Fukushima, scientists planted millions of sunflowers to help the land recover Similarly, they’ve also been planted in areas with high concentrations of lead. In scientific terms, they’re ‘hyper-accumulators’ which means they can absorb much more of these contaminants than other plants. It’s believed plants develop this ability partly to make them less tempting as a snack for herbivores. [“Eight Facts You Didn’t Know About Sunflowers.” Appleyard London 2022] The Sunflowers ...

Back in the 70s, the lunch ladies served a pizza that was so tasty - he still remembers and talks about it today. His memories include the delicious homemade rolls that many kids would buy with cartons of milk for lunch – instead of a meal. Ms. Louise Boger was in charge of the cafeteria at the school back then, and her sister, Maudie Dy-son, worked there. Another sister, Deo Kimmer, ran the Davie High School cafeteria, and Maggie Harpe, the Davie Hospital cafete-ria. Between the sisters – they had the food scene wrapped up. When it comes to food, it's hard to find foods kids will eat – espe-cially vegetables. We all remem-ber being told, "Eat your peas." Anytime parents can sneak in a few healthy greens – they're likely to do it. A variety of vegetables should be introduced early. Grow-ing up, I didn't like vegetables – I'd already been introduced to sugar – too much, too soon. Some veggies contain natural sugars – but they no longer taste sweet. Our taste buds have been saturated with sugar in processed foods.I applaud you for trying to cook and eat with reduced sugar. I'm thankful I've learned to enjoy a simple prep of veggies – without adding sweet stuff or smothering them in cream sauce. Don't get me wrong – I'll always have a love affair with my culinary heritage – the southern casserole. And my sweet spot has been and always will be dessert. For today's recipes, I took the liberty to have fun with them – like a kid. But you'll discover they're not just good for kids but for big people, as well. Delicious, in fact. Do you remember how we felt as kids when summer was over, and we had to return to school? Sometimes when we've been away from something for a while – it's not easy to go back. We take breaks, wander away, or leave some-thing for a season – only to return later. At times, we wander away from God. Maybe everything seemed to be going our way – so we didn't give God our full attention. Then trouble invariably came along – God instructed us – but our hearts didn't always respond. Can you imagine being told to leave your home for an unknown period? That would indeed be troublesome. In the Bible, the Lord speaks to Jeremiah and presents him with a bas-ket of good and bad figs. The good ones represented exiles to Babylon – those who followed God's instructions. God had preserved them and would bring them back to the land. Jeremiah 24:4-7 reads, "Like these good figs, I regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I sent away from this place to the land of the Babylonians. My eyes will watch over them for their good and I will bring them back to this land…I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord. They will be my people, and I will be their God, for they will return to me with all their heart." (NIV)When experiencing problems – remember, trouble is a blessing – and makes us stronger in our faith. On bad days, ask God to help you grow stronger. On good days, ask God to show you how to use your blessings for Him. He calls us to return to Him.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 1, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The game was lost, and then a win seemed well within Davie’s reach. Then it seemed lost again, then it seemed like the War Eagles would actually win, and then they lost. Before a large crowd in the Davie home opener Friday, Davie and West Rowan stood toe to toe and slugged it out in a fight till the finish. Davie scored before the game was two minutes old. West scored 20 unanswered points in 5:11. Davie rallied for a halftime lead. West regained the lead, but Davie charged in front 34-29. But in the final three minutes, the Fal-cons broke Davie’s heart, 35-34. “This one’s tough to swallow,” Davie coach Tim Devericks said after his team fell to 0-2. “I’m glad I can see the hurt on their faces because they fought. They fought through adversities. There were ups and downs and we battled injuries.”While Davie tasted bitter de-feat, the Falcons savored a thrilling 2-0 start and a measure of revenge after losing the past two meetings by a combined score of 91-37. “That was a great game,” West coach Louis Kraft said. “That’s what you expect with West Row-an-Davie. That’s going to be a really good team this year. I know they’ve gotten off to an 0-2 start, but that’s a really good team.”The War Eagles got first posses-sion and made a 7-0 lead look easy. They went 54 yards in five plays, including quarterback Ty Miller’s 16-yard run, a 35-yard pass to Braddock Coleman and a 9-yard TD run up the middle by Markel Summers, who wasn’t touched. The Falcons were entirely un-fazed by that, scoring on their first three possessions by driving 75, 69 and 90 yards to take a 20-7 lead. (Eli Branham blocked the extra point after West’s first TD.) West kept burning Davie with the deep ball, with QB Lucas Graham com-pleting six passes for 205 yards in the first quarter alone. But Summers’ 4-yard run on fourth-and-1 at midfield and Mill-er’s 23-yard connection with Coleman changed the momentum for Davie. On the second fourth-and-1 play of the drive, Miller faked a handoff to Summers, got to the corner and lowered his head for 4 yards. Miller hit an open Summers, who had leaked out of the backfield, for an 11-yard TD pass on the next play. Jerred Alexander had a tackle for no gain, Justin Hayes sacked Graham and West shanked a punt for 19 yards. Then Davie’s offense went back to work. Coleman made Davie loses heartbreaker Please See Davie - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record After experiencing baptism by fire and losing by 27 to Moores-ville, Davie’s JV football team came back with a vengeance at West Rowan. It flipped the script and won 61-39 on Aug. 25. “They’ve been working hard,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said. “We’ve still got to clean up some things, but they definitely improved and executed a lot better. We are very freshman-heavy, so it’s a learning process for those guys. We don’t have a lot of sophomores playing JV to be the leaders, so they’re having to learn as they go.”“Big-time improvement,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “We have a ton of freshmen playing and the first week we played a sophomore-heavy team. You can say it until you’re blue in the face, but until you really experience it ... they knew what to expect (against West) and they were ready for it.”Quarterback Jamarius Pelote and running back Archer Rich-ardson took turns tormenting the Falcons. Pelote not only rushed for 113 yards and three touchdowns, he hit 9 of 14 passes for 189 and three TDs. To repeat: The fresh-man had a hand in six TDs. Richardson also did his share of damage, rushing for 102 yards and three scores. “Archer had a great night get-ting downhill,” Gould said. “Ja-marius is a young guy, but he’s a good athlete. He made a bunch of plays with his feet, and he was able to make plays in the air. A couple of plays were just great scramble drills where he was able to elude the pressure and find an open re-ceiver down the field.”Pelote’s scoring tosses found the waiting hands of three different receivers: Leon Bradshaw, Isaac Swisher and Dallas Sims. Brad-shaw (4 catches, 93 yards) and Swisher (3-74) were his favorite targets. “Leon made a big touchdown catch in the first game, and he did the same thing again this game,” Gould said. “He was able to go catch a deep ball and outrun them. He’s been our leader as far as re-ceivers go.“Isaac stepped up. Some of it was the coverages they were playing and what they were giving us, and Isaac was the one who had the good matchup.”The War Eagles led 14-12 when the first quarter ended. Then they pulled away and led 35-20 after an eventful first half. It was 41-27 after the third, and Davie put up 20 Pelote part of 6 TDs as JVs score 61 points Please See JVs - Page B6 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Coaches have said for a hun-dred years that you not only have to be good, you have to be lucky. Davie’s tennis team has been good - it has a 17 win streak in regular-season matches - and it has been lucky. In fact, the War Eagles appear to have a permanent horseshoe. Last year during their 14-1 joyride, they went 4-0 in 5-4 matches. They recaptured the magic in the CPC opener against visiting Reynolds on Aug. 22, winning by - you guessed it - a 5-4 margin. It was the third straight win over the Demons, who lost 6-3 twice to Davie in 2021. “I knew they were going to be coming for us, especially after los-ing two close ones to us last year,” coach Collin Ferebee said. “So if it was more than 6-3 on either side, I was going to be surprised.”While Elliot Newsome (6-1, 6-0) breezed at No. 1, Karlie Quinn and Leslie Newsom (6-4, 7-5) pulled out nailbiters at Nos. 2 and 5, respectively. Quinn was really pushed to the brink, but she sur-vived by scores of 7-6 (8-6), 5-7, 10-8, and it was 3-3 after singles.Davie stretched its CPC win-ning streak to 13 by taking two of three doubles. Quinn/Tru Koren completely dominated, 8-0, at No. 1. Sarah West Marklin/Bailey Aderhold had little trouble, 8-3, at No. 3. “I gave Karlie player of the match because she’s the only one that won both of her matches, and she’s the one who kept us in it,” Ferebee said. “I was really proud of (Marklin and Aderhold) because they both had tough matches in singles that they were on the wrong side of. They flipped that mental switch and went out there and won the match that won us the match.”Yes, it was a big win, but Ferebee tempered his enthusiasm because he knows this was just the first of many league tests. “West Forsyth returned largely the same team (from 2021), so I kind of know what they’re going to bring,” he said. “Reagan doesn’t stay down very long - if you con-sider tied for second down. So I’m expecting a battle with them as I always do.”•••Two days later in a road non-conference match, Davie (3-0) handed North Davidson a 9-0 drubbing. Newsome (6-2, 6-2), Quinn (6-0, 6-0), Koren (6-0, 6-0), Marklin (6-1, 6-0), Newsom (6-1, 6-0) and Aderhold (6-0, 6-0) took care of business in singles. The dou-bles winners were Quinn/Gabby Thompson (8-3), Casey Cao/Brooklyn Lakey (8-4) and Olivia Swisher/Ali Cranfill (8-5). North fell to 1-3.

My father occasionally al-lowed me to skip a day of high school for opening day; I understood – from hunting buddies above the Mason-Dixon line – that opening day in much of Pennsylvania was actually a school holiday.With so many hunters now greeting a handful of deer-season openers – ar-chery, blackpowder and gun – across four different sections of North Carolina that all stagger their sea-sons – opening day of deer season doesn’t carry as much weight as it did back in 1972 when I skipped school but got back in time for driver’s ed in the after-noon.Nowadays, there is one hard and fast opening day that I put on my calendar almost immediately after dates are announced. It’s usually the first Saturday in September, but it often winds up being Labor Day. It’s the day doves suddenly become the most-important game bird or animal across much of the Southeast.Opening day of dove season is a rite of pas-sage for many hunters. It’s the official kickoff of fall hunting, when guns get retrieved from safes and cabinets for the first time in months, when hunting clothes get a thorough ma-chine washing, when boxes of shotgun shells are sorted by gauge and shot size, and even more purchased. Of-ten, it’s a great excuse for barbecue to be bought or smoked and served to big groups of acquaintances at the end of the morning’s festivities – or the begin-ning of afternoon festivi-ties. Or it’s venison sausage biscuits at daybreak and dove on the grill, wrapped in bacon and maybe stuffed with jalapeno, at the end of a morning hunt.I have spent some won-derful opening days in North Carolina, Virgin-ia and Georgia over the years, killed a lot of limits – this year, again, it’s 15 birds – and admired great wing-shooting from guys far better than me. This sea-son, North Carolina hunters get a three-part season: Sept. 3-Oct. 1, Nov. 5-26 and Dec. 10-Jan. 31, 2023. Legal hunting hours are 30 minutes before sunrise until sunset.I think I’m safe in say-ing that quite a few hunt-ers got their start in a dove field, first sitting on a stool beside an older relative and watching for doves to en-ter the field and marking those that don’t make it, then graduating to a dove stool and something like a side-by-side, 20-gauge double-barrel choked im-proved/modified.My son and I have pre-pared dove fields the past two seasons – sorghum in strips surrounded by millet the first year, sorghum in strips with plowed fields oversewn with wheat. The doves were really in there in 2020 – at least a week be-fore the season. Then, some storms bringing torrential rains and cooler weather ran them out and we had just a few on opening day. They were in there last sea-son, thick enough for good hunts on the opening Satur-day and on the morning of Labor Day.Hunts the past handful of years have been very, very special. My son, now 30, decided that he wanted, for his Appalachian State graduation present back in 2014, a Labrador retriever puppy. I found a friend with a litter already in the oven, so to speak, and spoke for a male puppy long before they arrived on April Fool’s Day. We picked out little Buckshot the week be-fore graduation and picked him up on Memorial Day weekend. He has accom-panied us to opening day dove shoots ever since, and he’s made them even more memorable than they were before. His son, Boone, joined us on opening day last year, and there were enough doves for both of them.More bad news for NC whitetails – and huntersIf North Carolina’s deer herd didn’t get enough bad news with the discovery of two CWD-positive white-tails in the last 8 months, now they’re dying all over several areas across the state from a different ail-ment. The N.C. Wildlife Re-sources Commission said hunters in the Foothills, Andrew Kibler and his dog, Buckshot, with their haul of doves from a hunt a few years ago. - Photo by Dan Kibler Piedmont and Coastal Plain are likely losing deer on a regular basis from an out-break of hemorrhagic dis-ease – a regular visitor to North Carolina whitetails, especially during hot, wet summers.Moriah Boggess, the commission’s deer biolo-gist, said the agency has received reports of deer affected by hemorrhagic disease in 39 counties, with the highest frequency being in the Foothills and Pied-mont. Both major hem-orrhagic diseases – blue-tongue and Epizootic, have been confirmed in samples.“Hemorrhagic disease is a common disease in southeastern deer popula-tions that causes sporadic outbreaks every few years, typically resulting in dead deer found near water in late summer,” Boggess said. Hemorrhagic disease is spread by biting midg-es during the summer and into early fall. The disease will typically disappear at the first frost and will leave local herds immune for a handful of years.On the hunting side, the commission voted on Aug. 18 to restrict the use of some natural deer at-tractants and scents in the Primary Surveillance and Secondary Surveillance (CWD) areas.The General Assem-bly had already prohibited the use of substances that include cervid excretions (bodily fluids or glandular oils) to attempt to attract and take deer, except for natural deer urine collected from a facility in North Car-olina with a valid Farmed Cervid License and labeled as such, and excretions collected by a hunter from a deer legally harvested in North Carolina. It does not affect synthetic scents or products labeled as part of the Responsible Hunting Scent Association’s Deer Protection Program.What the commission’s latest decision does is pro-hibit the possession and use of any excretion collected by a hunter from a harvest-ed deer in the surveillance areas.

Submit your veteran nominationourdavie.com/veterans VETERAN OF THE MONTH SEPTEMBER 2022 Thank you foryour service Charley Whaley was born in Raleigh in 1949 and raised in Salisbury one of 12 children to Walter and Margaret Whaley. He attended Rowan County schools. In 1967 Charley volunteered for the US Army at the age of 18 and did basic training at Fort Bragg. He complet-ed the single rotor, single turbine helicopter school in Fort Rucker, Alabama. Af-ter graduation in July 1968 he was shipped to Vietnam. “I expected to serve in a gunship or a troop carrier but found myself attached to a Medical Helicopter Ambulance Company. My duties included perform-ing all maintenance on my helicopter and also flying as the crewchief.” Their missions were to fly into landing zones, retrieve the wounded soldiers, provide medical care and transport the wounded to the nearest medical facility. Sometimes these Landings Zones were hot meaning that there was active fighting taking place. Whaley’s first duty station was at Phu Bia with the 571st Dustoff until December 68 and then he was transferred to the 237th Dustoff located at Camp Evans. He flew hundreds of missions with these units. In November 68 the entire unit was trans-ferred to Quang Tri next to the DMZ. The unit changed their call sign from Evans Dustoff to DMZ Dustoff. “The term Dustoff refers to the amount of rotorwash blowing dust and other de-bris everywhere when we landed.” “My unit had only 6 Huey helicopters to cover the area from the DMZ southwest to Laos and East to the South China Sea so we were busy nearly 24-7.” Charley returned to the states in February 1970 hav-ing spent 20 months in Viet-nam. His rank was an E-5 or a Specialist 5. Whaley was awarded 24 Combat Air Medals for ac-tive combat flights in Viet-nam. He also has a Purple Heart from injuries while in a combat mission. His great-est award is the Soldiers Medal that I was present-ed for actions he took on 10/10/1969… “My team was dispatched to the DMZ when a Marine gunship was shot down. We were unable to land so my pilot hovered next to the top of a hillside where I jumped out. I went into the jungle, located the down gunship and there found the crewchief and door gunner dead. The pilot in the left seat was also deceased and luckily the right seat pilot was still alive. I removed the pilot, and in a fireman’s carry carried him up a hill through the jungle.

West threatened at the end of the half, but Gra-ham’s pass in the end zone for Paxton Greene was in-tercepted by Landon King, who suffered what appeared to be a serious knee injury after making a dazzling pick. Davie took the one-point lead to the locker room. “They’ve got a lot of great team speed,” Kraft said. “That running back (Summers) is a man. The quarterback’s going to be a really good player. They spaced us out.”It didn’t take long for the second-half fireworks to begin. On fourth-and-9 from the Davie 41, West’s Evan Kennedy reeled in a 31-yard reception despite a double-team. Two plays later, workhorse running back Landon Jacobs capped an 80-yard drive from 9 yards out. West tried a trick play that failed on the PAT, leaving the score 26-21. Davie’s offense didn’t flinch. On fourth-and-5 from the West 45, Miller couldn’t find a receiver, he escaped a disintegrating pocket and sped 15 yards around left end. After having first-and-goal at the 1, a penalty and a fumble backed Davie up to the 14. That’s when Miller and York hooked up for a breathtaking play. A blitzing linebacker forced a desperate pass from Miller, who altered his de-livery and threw it up be-tween two defenders. York reached up and snatched it for a touchdown that helped Davie retake the lead at 28-26. “That was an unbeliev-able play,” Devericks said. “We’ve got to get (York) to believe in himself that he can do that every play. Sometimes he doesn’t trust himself enough. We want him to grow into the physi-cal traits that God has given him.”The Falcons responded by marching from its 17 to the Davie 15. But Davie’s defense clamped down, denied the Falcons a TD and forced them to settle for three. Mason Shermer and Willie Purvis stuffed Jacobs behind the line. On third down, receiver Adrian Stockton ran a route to the front of the end zone and had inside position on Purvis - but Purvis reached around and broke it up. Juan Artega drilled a 28-yard field goal to put West on top, 29-28, with 11:10 remaining. “I’m pretty sure (Stock-ton) had the ball in his hands, and Willie raked both hands and caused him to drop the ball,” Devericks said. Davie needed an answer and kick returner Bryan Ar-gueta supplied it with a 42-yard return to the West 39. “Bryan’s fearless,” De-vericks said. “He runs it up in there as hard as he possibly can.”Miller, a sturdy com- West Rowan 20 0 6 9 – 35Davie 7 14 7 6 – 34First QuarterD - Summers 9 run (Williams kick), 10:37.

Miller scored from the 3. A two-point try failed, but Davie had a 34-29 lead. “We’ve put in some QB reads, not just zone read,” Devericks said. “It’s one of those things where you’ve got to be smart and know when you’ve got to get physical in the middle. If you’re on the perimeter, take your yards, get out of bounds and live to play the next down.”On the ensuring series, Graham and Jacobs con-verted a pair of fourth-and-ones, but the Davie defense stiffened and got a turnover on downs. Connor Hood stopped Kennedy after a 3-yard gain to set up third-and-5. Back-to-back incom-pletions gave Davie the ball with just 3:55 to go. “Defensively, they gave us a little trouble switching from odd to even fronts,” Kraft said. “As a play-call-er, it kind of tripped me up at times. They had a good scheme tonight, a really good plan.”Davie was in great po-sition to close the deal, but on third-and-4 from the Davie 48, Miller was picked off by a diving Jacob Per-ry, a former Ellis wrestler. Four plays later, it happened again. Graham went deep and hit a streaking Stockton for a 42-yard score with 2:18 on the clock. Davie was down by one and it was second-and-19 at its 15. Evan against improb-able odds, Miller and his boys didn’t lose their poise. Summers laid out for a 17-yard catch. Coleman caught a short pass, slipped a tackle and gained 18 yards to the West 33. Now Davie was in kicker Palmer Williams territory. But then came the bad ending. Coleman fooled the cornerback with a stop-and-go move and made a twist-ing, tumbling catch against two defenders around the West 1 - only to be out of bounds. Then there was a 20-yard holding flag that put Davie in a third-and-29 hole at midfield. That was the ballgame. The stars were aligned for West to win a shootout that featured five lead changes, 46 first downs, 961 yards of offense and 10 TDs (five by each team). West’s Graham (15 of 25 for 388 yards and three TDs) and Kennedy (seven catches, 227 yards) were sensational. Graham’s pass-ing yards broke the school record, and Kennedy’s re-ceiving yards set the school record and tied for fourth on the Rowan County list. Jacobs (36 carries, 147 yards) and Stockton (4-116 receiving) also inflicted se-rious damage on the Davie defense. “(Jacobs is) a work-horse,” Kraft said. “Last year he played defensive end and we had to move him to running back out of necessity. He’s a load to tackle. (Graham) loves to make the big play when we ask him to. He knows he’s managing the game, managing the game and then he takes over when he needs to. (Kennedy, a sophomore) grew up. We knew he was going to be special when he was a freshman last year, and he grew up tonight.”Miller and Co. did every-thing they could do to avoid the first 0-2 start since 2017. Miller passed for 170 yards, ran for 124 and factored into four TDs (three passing, one rushing). Summers churned out 93 rushing yards. York made big plays (two TDs). And Coleman, one of the unknown soldiers as a 5-10 sophomore, stoked every heart by making five catches for 97 yards and resembling a little Jack Reynolds from 2018. “We had several receiv-ers that improved from last week,” Devericks said. “We didn’t have a very good game (at Mooresville) as a unit. Monday was very som-ber when they saw them-selves on film, and they’re going to see their improve-ment on film on Monday.”The Graham-to-Stockton heroics also ruined 13-tackle efforts by Purvis and Hayes. Shermer, Hood and John Stokes had eight each. Bran-ham had seven, Ethan Silvey six and Matty Warner five. Shermer and Landon Barber had three and two hurries, respectively. Purvis had two pass breakups. “This one stings,” De-vericks said. “But look at Week One to now. We made huge strides. We did give up some plays that we probably shouldn’t have, but the im-provement from last week is this week we were in position to win. Now we’ve just got to finish.”Notes• Davie produced 20 first downs and 387 yards behind the blocking of Jackson Powers, Ryder Strickland, Kevin Lazaro, Evan Cope-land, Chad Russell, Evan Froelich and Cole Thomas. • King (left knee) was replaced at cornerback by committee. Junior Romero played there some. Brodie Smith, a receiver, did some double duty. At times, Hood slid from safety to corner. It looked like the kind of injury that would sideline King for a good while. “He was in the same position last week,” Devericks said of King’s INT. “He was in po-sition to make those plays, and one week later he was making those plays. He’s a kid who’s done everything we’ve asked him. You hate to see that, but I know he’ll bounce back and hopefully we can get him back in a few weeks.”• Two teams trying to move past the disappoint-ment of 0-2 will meet Friday night at 7:30 in Welcome. North Davidson has lost to Reagan (30-25) and North-west Guilford (50-22). Da-vie has won the past two meetings (21-14 in 2018 and 42-31 in 2019), but this will be the first matchup since 2019.

Richardson, Pelote and Michael Paschall (5-33 rushing) followed an offen-sive line that rotated bodies all night. Ryan Williams and Nathan Barr played left tackle. Caleb Coble and Isaiah Thompson played left guard. Brayden Willard and Maddox Creason split time at center. Davis Jones, Colt Ratliff and Sam Sellers shared duties at right guard. And John Holcomb, Riley Mulgrew and Noah Garren took turns at right tackle. “Our guards improved from the week before, clear-ing out and letting Archer hit those lanes,” Gould said. “During the week in prac-tice, they were able to fix their angles, fix techniques and correct some mistakes after seeing themselves on film (against Mooresville),” Devericks said of the OL. “They did a heck of a job.”Defensively, Devericks said Davie played better than the score suggests. “Most of their touch-downs were just big plays,” he said. “We had multiple three-and-outs, four-and-outs and made them punt Continued From Page B1in four days, and Vanzant had a monster week. At Pine Knolls on Aug. 22, she fired a 1-over 37 to take seventh place out of 29 players. It was another new career best after she opened the season with a career-best 4-over 40 at Salem Glen. The 37 marked Davie’s finest indi-vidual score since Kyleigh Harnsberger’s even 36 at Reynolds Park in September of 2019. “Her hard work, love of playing and practicing is paying big dividends,” coach Bob Donley said. Vanzant opened with two bogeys. She parred No. 3 and birdied No. 4. She closed with five straight pars. The birdie came on a Famil y Medicine Employeeowned Established in1921 Globalmanufacturer Scan to viewour currentvacancies Hiringnow quite a few times.”Devericks gave a thumbs-up to Nathaniel Jor-dan, a sophomore defensive lineman. “He had a really JVs ... good game,” he said. “He’s really come on this year.”Notes: David Patton con-verted 7 of 9 extra points. “The kicking game was still a work in progress (against Mooresville),” Gould said. “David has been working on it and he’s improved. He had deeper kickoffs. He’s primarily a receiver, but it’s something he’s kind of worked on on the side.” ... West, which lost 24-22 to Salisbury, fell to 0-2. Golf ... par-4. “It was about a 250-yard par-4 over water, so I decided to just go for it with my driver,” she said. “I had a good drive with a 75-yard chip into the green. I chipped it pretty close and made about a 10-foot putt.”Davie showed significant improvement as a team. After finishing third in a three-team meet at Salem Glen, it took third in the first Central Piedmont Confer-ence meet of the year. West Forsyth was first at 5-under 103, followed by Reagan (104), Davie (148), Reyn-olds (161), Mt. Tabor (163), Parkland (198), Glenn (201) and East Forsyth (203). Sophomore Kate Sakai was second for Davie with a 50. “Our 148 was 19 strokes better than our first match,” Donley said. “It was great improvement.”•••In a nonconference match at Oak Valley on Aug. 24, Vanzant birdied the par-3 No. 6 and the No. 9 par-4, finished at 2-over 38 and became the first War Eagle to record 4-over or better in three consecutive rounds since Harnsberger’s string of 39, 39, 39, 40 in 2018. West Forsyth (7-over 115) beat Davie by 42 shots. In another match at Oak Valley the next day, Vanzant continued to scorch. She was first out of 14 with a 3-over 39. Sakai tied for fourth at 53. Davie (50-over 158) lost to Oak Grove by 23 strokes. Whisenhunt in rookie leagueCarson Whisenhunt, a recent second-round pick by San Francisco, had a strong outing in the rookie league last week. The lefthander pitched two scoreless inninngs, allowed one hit and struck out five to help the Giants beat the Cubs 7-3.

It was 1-0 at halftime. “Once (Carson) scored a goal on us, it broke us a little bit and we just couldn’t recover,” coach Scott McBain said. “I didn’t do the best job of motivating and inspiring the kids to play better than they should. My expectations were high, and unfortunately sometimes that means the fall is a further drop. “We’re going to do better. We never quit; that’s the good news. So we’ll come back and do something good.” SportsBriefs Jamarius Pelote looks for a receiver on the move. Josiah Johnson makes a tackle. John Holcomb blocks.

A total of 49 schools from both Caroli-nas, Tennessee and Georgia kicked off the season over the traditional 5k distance. The War Eagle boys were among 26 teams in the invi-tational division, while the girls squared off against 19 schools in their race. The boys grabbed an impres-sive runner-up finish to a senior-dominated Lincoln Charter squad, while the girls managed a 10th-place showing.Leading the way for Da-vie was the team’s lone senior, Owen Sulecki, who crossed the line in a per-sonal-best time of 17:36, good for ninth place in a field of 168 finishers. Hot on his heels was a trio of Davie runners, including sophomore Thomas Essic, whose 14th place finishing time of 17:50 was also a personal record. Freshman Ethan Lakey claimed 17th in 18:00, while sophomore Tyler Hill placed 21st in 18:19. Rounding out the scoring for Davie was junior Will Allard, who took 67th in 19:53, and sophomore Aric Boles, who was 85th in 20:25.A young Davie girls squad was next up as the hu-mid temperature soared into the mid-80s. Freshman Lexi Marion overcame a twisted ankle early in the race to secure 16th place in 22:55. Junior Gracie Spicer placed 33rd in 23:54 and sopho-more Raelyn Lankford was 61st in 25:49. The final three Davie runners were fresh-men running their first ever 5k race. Riley McNeil was 74th in 27:05, Stella Frye 88th in 28:37 and Brianna Givens 95th in 31:18.A total of 12 Davie boys raced in the combined JV race, which featured nearly 400 runners. Davie claimed 13th and was led by a pair of freshmen. Logan Zu-leger paced the effort in 52nd place with a time of 20:23 and was followed by classmate Jackson Sulecki, whose time of 20:41 was good for 65th. Sophomore Chris Devicente knocked an incredible three minutes off of his best freshman year effort by placing 94th in 21:36. Next across the line was junior Slade Keaton in 22:01, followed by sopho-mores Hayden Key (22:16) and Noah Shore (22:31). Freshman Caswell Moore was next in 22:41. Rounding out the Davie contingent were sophomores Adam Brown (24:28) and Jake Hannah (25:44) and fresh-man Jake Patton in 27:37.“Coach (Jeff) Jones and I were very pleased with the performances overall,” said coach Rob Raisbeck. “We have just over 30 runners on our roster and only one is a senior. We lost a bunch of seniors last year and we are in a complete rebuilding mode at the moment. For us to take second among 26 teams with such a young group was pretty impres-sive. Owen and Thomas ran very well and Ethan ran fearlessly. Tyler has been training very well and we expect big things from him this season. We are counting on Will and Aric to ease into their new roles on the varsity to give us what we need at the No. 5 spot.“A couple of our other freshmen did a really nice job in the JV race. Logan has been out for several weeks with an illness and is just now returning to training. He and Jackson will likely battle it out to see who gets our final varsity spot at the end of the season, and I think they will really help us over the next few years. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Although Davie’s varsity volleyball team suffered its third loss in a row at East Surry, this was not a step backward. Amber Brandon, who never experienced a three-match slide in her first seven years as Davie’s coach, always lines up ferocious nonconference opponents to get the War Eagles ready for the Central Piedmont Conference. The Cardinals are a 2-A juggernaut - they went 138-21 from 2016-21, finishing as state runner-up in 2019 and marching to the state semifinals in 2018 and 2021 - and Davie put up a valiant fight in 3-2 defeat on Aug. 22. The scores were 20-25, 26-24, 23-25, 25-22, 5-15. It was a bittersweet end-ing in Pilot Mountain be-cause of Davie played so well after an uninspired start (down 21-10 in the first set). “There were some re-ally good moments in that match,” Brandon said. “We had really struggled in serve-receive up until this point. We looked a lot better. Emily Garner had a really good game. She really stepped up. She was kind of the glue that held it together after we lost the third set.”The match was 1-1 with Davie leading 24-23 in the third set. A hit by East’s star, junior Bella Hutchens, appeared to hit the antenna, which would have clinched the set and given Davie a 2-1 lead. The officials did not see it that way, and East rallied for a 25-23 win. That was obviously a big swing in the match. “(Hutchens) is definitely in the likes of a kid like (East Forsyth graduate) Kady-nce Boothe that we played against the last four years,” Brandon said. “We went in with a good strategy of how we wanted to handle and contain (Hutchens). Part of that was we wanted to block close to the antenna and force her to go crosscourt. She tried to put one down the line, and in my opinion, clear as day, it went into the antenna, so it should have been 25-23 us. It was our bad luck. The ball being turned into the antenna was Upcoming Games Wednesday, Aug. 31Davie tennis at home vs. Mt.

She is having to shoulder the load as being our No. 1 and she had a really nice debut. Gracie and Raelyn give us two veterans and then we are relying on freshmen behind them. Riley, Stella and Brianna are brand new to the sport and they all did very well for the first time out. We have a couple of up-perclassmen who have just come out, and we did not race them Saturday but they will provide some depth as the season progresses.” Next will be the Friday Night Lights meet Sept. 9. More than 90 schools will be on hand to race at Kerners-ville’s Ivey Redmon Park, the site of the November state championships. Volleyball falls just short what we worked for. Our kids did exactly what they were supposed to do.”Despite the bad break, Davie (2-3) refused to go away, winning the fourth set to keep hope alive. “I was super proud of our kids,” she said. “We had a rough day on Saturday (in losses to South Iredell and Hough), and I was afraid they would fall apart on me in the fourth - and they didn’t. They fought back. We were in command the whole fourth set. It was frustrating because I thought we should be walking out of here right now with a 3-1 win.”Unfortunately for Davie, the fifth set was an anticli-max. “Anything can happen in the fifth set,” she said. “We missed a couple serves early, got stuck in a serve-receive rotation early and had a middle come down with an ankle sprain, which really frazzled our kids. We got in a tailspin.”Garner was hardly the only War Eagle to shine. Libero Emma Willard played brilliantly. “She’s fantastic on de-fense,” Brandon said. “She picked up some balls, es-pecially crosscourt, that Hutchens, who will go play big-time Division-I volley-ball, is not used to seeing picked up. We want to win the hustle plays, and she kind of sets the tone for that.”Then there was Kiah Mathis, Hailey Johnson and Emma Hayes. “Kiah is our kills leader. She had a good game,” Brandon said. “We knew we had to figure out a way to use Willard and Hailey. Hai-ley had a really good game (as a defensive specialist). She fills a role in the back row when Emma Hayes is on front row. Emma Hayes had a couple big blocks, stuff blocks, on (Hutchens) and a couple great slow-downs that was really good for her confidence and my confidence.”East, which lost 3-0 to Reagan, improved to 2-2. This is Davie’s first three-match losing streak since 2014. JV LosesDavie’s JV fell to 0-2 with a 2-1 loss to East. This team is a work in progress under new coach Tabatha Lyons. “The kids are still trying to learn each other on the court,” she said. “We’re really focussing on little details and being disciplined in practice to get ready for (this) week’s conference matches.”Davie took steps in the right direction against the Cardinals. “Their communication is getting better,” Lyons said. “We had some moments where we looked really good, especially in sets two and three. I’m still playing with some different lineups, but I think we’re close to figuring out how to be the most successful.” 118 Hospital st. • Mocksville, Nc 27028 • 336.751.6289 “Because you should want to see your dentist” Accepting Most Major Insurances | RiversFamilyDentistry.com Dr. Rivers’ Dental Tip of the Week Andrew J.

Eaton’s Baptist will celebrate its 250th anniversary on the first Sunday in October.My children - Frances Tutterow, Henry West, Su-san Cujas and her husband Al - honored me on my 90th birthday with a lunch at the Frostland House in Cana, the place where I was born on a hot, dry August day. Dr. S.A. Harding was the doctor in attendance at my birth on Aug. 15, 1932, in an upstairs room at Frostland which must have been mis-erably hot because at that time there was no electrici-ty in the house. (Electricity did not come to Cana until 1939.) My birth announcement, which I recently found, said that I weighed 8 pounds and four ounces. My parents were Lola Sofley Etchison, who grew up in the Red-land community of Davie County and Everett Frost Etchison, who was born and raised at Cana. Those who came to Frostland to honor me on my birthday in addition to my children were: all of my grandchildren except one grandson-in-law, Ryan Ap-plegate, who was away on a trip. Those grandchildren joining in and helping with the celebration were: Ja-son and Page Tutterow of Advance, Elizabeth and Joe Burchette of Advance, Amy Cujas Applegate of Char-lotte, Missy Cujas of Lewis-ville, Oliver Cujas of Cana and step-grandchildren, Au-tumn Spillman Alverz and Alexander Spillman of Yad-kinville. Also joining were: my great-grandchildren, Reese Tutterow of Advance and her friend, Jake De-Long, Harper Tutterow of Advance, Joseph Burchette and his almost 2-month old baby sister, Birdie Frances Burchette, whose only as-signment for the day was to elicit oohs and aahs from the visitors. Birdie did her job well. That beautiful baby was named for her grandmother (Nana), Fran-ces, but I, her great-grand-mother, also claim some rights because her name is Betty Frances. Other important guests were: my only sister, Mar-ty Etchison Babcock and her husband Bill of Cary, my only Etchison sister-in- law, Rachel Estes Etchison, of Siler City, and Rachel’s daughter, Patrice Etchison, of Cary. The only sad note was the fact that my husband, Roland Henry West, who died on May 1, and my brother, John Etchison, who died in 2021, were not there.Other enjoying the occa-sion were cousins: Dahlgren Etchison of Cana; Rachel Etchison Yancey and her husband, Wayne (Rusty) of Clemmons; the Yanceys’ daughter, Sarah Vance of East Bend; Ina, and Donald Kamenz and their son, Rydr of Cana; and Buddy Eaton, who lives of Angell Road. Another special guest was Jo Pope Shaw, the only person still living who was growing up in the village of Cana when I grew up there. Other guests were: Mindy Spillman of Yadkinville, Martha Boger Moorefield of Advance, and Clator Motinger of Mocksville, and my travel companions, Jane and B.J. Testerman of Mooresville, Jenny and Tommy Turner of Mocks-ville, and Sarah and Ed Cartner of Mocksville.• Kathy and Bob El-lis recently returned from a cruise from Seattle to Alaska. They flew from Raleigh to Seattle, Wash., where they boarded a cruise ship to carry them up the Inside Passage to Alaska. They saw glaciers from the Tracy Fjord and stopped in Ketchikan, where they disembarked and enjoyed a crab feast. They traveled to Juneau, and to Icy Point Strait where they enjoyed seeing the beautiful Alas-kan landscape via a gondola ride. During the cruise back to Seattle, they stopped at Victoria, Canada, where the gardens are said to be some of the most beautiful in the world. Kelli and Nathan Hed-rick, who recently moved to the Pino community, hon-ored their daughter, Aubrey, on her 5th birthday with a party at their home on Sat-urday, Aug. 13. The theme was based on the movie, “The Greatest Showman,” Aubrey’s favorite. About 40 adults and children, in-cluding Aubrey’s grandpar-ents, enjoyed the party.
