The pros and cons of the elementaryschool debate

It was a standing room only crowd (with manyseated on the floor) March 11 as Marshall PublicSchools Superintendent Dr. Randy Davis held asecond work session on the possible restructuring ofthe district's three elementary schools. Whereas theFebruary work session focused on the advantagesand disadvantages of the traditional configuration, lastweek's work session focused on non-traditionalmodels. The non-traditional models included possibletwo-tiered models such as a Kindergarten through2nd grade split housed at Gordon and Hugheselementary schools and grades 3-5 "unified" atWalters Elementary.See story on page 10

Editor’s CornerLast week marked six years since I

wrote my first column at was then theMarshall Chronicle.My column cen-tered around sports and the Star Span-gled Banner as well as my experienceliving in Italy.

For those of you who missed reading that gem (which isprobably 99 percent of you), here’s what you missed:

Legend has it that during World War II, the anthem wasplayed before social, entertainment and sporting events to boostmorale and to honor our troops overseas, much like how after9/11, God Bless America was substituted for Take Me Out ToThe Ballgame at Major League games.

It seems these days, the only place you are going to hear theStar Spangled Banner is before a sporting event where are peo-ple are excited for the game to start. And even though they’llstand and most will take off their hats, you’ll see some (espe-cially at pro sporting events) chatting (sometimes on the phone),roaming about and getting antsy wanting the game to start.

I admit, that in the past, I was guilty a time or two.That all changed when I moved to Italy in 2000.Going overseas for vacation and going overseas to live are

two entirely different matters.Although far from home, when on vacation, you know that

great or awful, you’ll be home in a few days. Going for threeyears, or roughly 1,100 days however, feels like you’re living inexile.

No matter how much Italian I thought I learned before myarrival, none of my CD programs really prepared me for reallife conversation. I thought I knew how to ask for a loaf ofbread. But not before the man in the market looked at me as if Icame from some other planet or the United States when I saidin my best faux-Italian accent: Signore gentile, potreste trans-portatre pane che e sulla vostra parte posteriore?

Translation: Kind sir, could you transport bread that is onyour posterior?

One day, as I was taking my kids to school in Naples at theNATO base, we decided to stop and have breakfast at the U.S.Naval Hospital. A full breakfast there cost $1.35 in case youwere wondering. Eggs, bacon, French Toast, etc. It had been solong since I ate a real, unhealthy American breakfast. Not tomention the kids loved it because they could watch SesameStreet in the dining room.

As we headed out after eating, we saw everyone stop in theirtracks. It was 8 a.m. Time to raise the flags.

And there, for the first time in the four months since I left theU.S., I heard the Star Spangled Banner. In Naples, overlookingMount Vesuvius, 5,000 miles from home.

It never sounded so sweet. It gave me goosebumps andbrought a tear to my eye.

I had never been prouder to be an American than at that mo-ment.

For the first time, I really listened to the music. It was to be-come one of my most pleasant memories of my three years inItaly.

It was there that I truly appreciated what a wonderful placeour country is and how I couldn’t wait to get back.

Well, I’ve been back nearly 10 years and each and every timeI have heard the anthem since, I think back to that Octobermorning in 2000.

So, when you see me at all the sporting events during theStar Spangled Banner, you know what I’ll be thinking of,standing at attention, proud to be an American.

Until next week, may the good news be yours.

The arrival of spring means warmer weather (hopefully), but also an increase in thenumber of potholes that are already numerous in our area. Hypothetically, would yoube willing to pay a “pothole tax” to fix the roads?

Letters

Aash Bhatt,Kalamazoo

“It would depend on what the per-centage would be. Probably nothigher than 1 or 2 percent.”

Ian Schnaitman,Marshall

“Probably not. I would hope ourelected officials would find the moneyand would make it a priority to fix theroads.”

Word on the StreetWould you pay more for better roads?

by John Hendler

Mike Sexton,Marshall

“I would pay. I’m tired of potholesbasically breaking my vehicle.”

DougWolff,Marshall

“I would agree to it if the moneywas managed right and the roads gotfixed.”

Paul Herman,Marshall

“No. We already pay enough taxes.We pay for the roads already.”

Steffany Ashley,Albion

“I would, because the roads inMichigan are just awful.”

Hang up the phone on Medicare scam artistsTo the Editor:Dear senior citizens,The scam artists are at the

phones again. When you an-swer your phone and youcan’t understand the heavilyaccented voice claiming she iscalling for Medicare and sheneeds to confirm your phone

number and address becauseMedicate is replacing identifi-cation cards, just hang up.Don’t worry about being po-lite; hang up.

Medicare does not replacethe identification cards. Thesecallers will continue askingpersonal questions and imply-

ing that Medicare will postyour monthly allotment toyour bank, but they need thebank and routing numbers.

Whoa! That is a non-no.Your bank routing will myste-riously be changed and youwill say “goodbye” to yourmonthly stipend.

Remember hang up onthese callers. Medicare’sphone number is 1-800-633-4227. Medicare will directyou to call the Inspector Gen-eral’s Hotline/Quad line at 1-800-447-8477.

Do as the city says, not as the city doesTo the Editor:I read with amusement the “City of

Marshall Public Notice” dated March 6by Trisha Nelson, city clerk.

The notice stated, “In accordance withSection 90.23 of the Marshall City Codethe owner or occupant of any lot orbuilding shall not permit snow or ice toremain on the sidewalk in front or adja-cent to the lot or building. The owner ofoccupant shall remove any snow or icefrom the streets or sidewalks within 24hours of a snow or ice storm, of the citymay remove the snow or ice and chargethe expense of removal to the propertyowner.”

Seriously? Are the citizens of Mar-shall now required to remove snow or icefrom the streets?

Four years ago there was a Street De-partment with employees who drovesnowplows and cleared the city streetsduring these types of inclement weather.Has that department now been phasedout due to insufficient funds in the cof-fers?

On March 9, I walked the length ofthe boardwalk located in front of the cityowned Utility Services Building to SouthKalamazoo Avenue and back on thepaved sidewalk abutting the river. Ac-cording to my notes, our last snowfall oc-

curred on Feb. 27. Along both walkwayswere many areas where snow and/or icehad not been removed and may havecaused a hazard to anyone along thesepathways that are open to the public.

Since this property is city owned,does that disqualify them from having toremove snow and ice from their ownsidewalks? I would like to think that theyconcerned about the welfare and safety tothe public.

Perhaps the public notice should in-clude a postscript at the end reading, “Doas the city says, not as the city does.”

Phyllis Katz,Battle Creek

A legally flawed hospital zoning planTo the Editor:Aside from the fact that many residen-

tial and commercial property owners nearOaklawn Hospital continue to oppose theHospital Campus Overlay District, theCity Council and the city attorney appearto be prepared to adopt a legally flawedhospital zoning plan.

There are eight properties that havebeen the focus of the most recent HCODdiscussions. Four are on the west side ofHigh St. between Mansion and Prospectstreets, two are on Prospect bordering the

Ricketson Center’s parking lot and theother two are the Magic Museum Libraryand the Franke Center For The Arts. TheCouncil’s plan was to leave these eightproperties out of the HCOD while simul-taneously creating an easy (legally ques-tionable) way for the hospital to get theparcels added to the HCOD wheneverthe hospital requests a resolution ofcouncil.

During the deliberations of the Hospi-tal and Neighborhood Committee, theonly demonstrated need Oaklawn pre-

sented was for additional parking. Other“needs” were expressed as maybes andpossibilities but not concrete as to time,place or plans.

The mayor and Council should be dis-cussing ways to address the current park-ing needs rather than trying to adopt azoning plan intended to handle a 20-yearguess at what might be needed some day.

Swett again!!

Marshall High School boys diving coach Terry Howard congratulates Henry Swett on the podium after the MHS sophomore repeated as Div. 3 state champion March 8 atEastern Michigan University. Swett won the title with a score of 431.20. “His score did not reflect how well he dove,” said Howard. “I felt the scores for Henry were low.With the way Henry dove, he should have scored between 470 and 500 points.” Swett was in first place by 8 points by the end of the first day of competition and extendedhis lead by 20 points at the end of the second day. Swett’s teammates Kyle Weck, below left, and Matthew Howard, below, with Swett and Weck also qualified for and com-peted at the state meet, with Weck placing 26th. “It was another great year for Marshall diving and the team continues to grow stronger,” said Howard.

Regional champs ousted in quarterfinals

photos by John Hendler

The Marshall High School girls varsity basketball team saw its season come to an end in the state quarterfinalsfor a second straight year following a 53-29 loss to Grand Rapids South Christian on March 12 in Wayland. AfterMarshall jumped out to a 6-0 lead, Grand Rapids South Christian then went on a 13-0 run. Marshall got as closeas one point, 15-14, late in the first quarter but would get no closer the rest of the way as the Redhawks wereheld to four points in the second quarter; five points in the third; and six points in the fourth. “It’s disappointing be-cause we didn’t play our best when it counted the most,” said Marshall coach Sal Konkle, above, seen talking toher team during a timeout. “Our girls tried very hard; it’s just that South Christian played very well...The fact thatwe got to the quarterfinals two years in a row speaks a lot about the girls’ dedication and how hard they’veworked.” Laura VanDyke and Logan Kiessling each scored eight points to lead Marshall, which finished the sea-son with a record of 20-5.

The team celebrates after winning the regional title March 7 following a 50-49 win over Stevensville-Lakeshore.
