A tragic accident on Main Street late Thursday after-noon claimed the life of a young boy.
Police Chief Tony Hill said around 6 p.m., a one ton Ford pickup pulling a goose-neck trailer, owned by 7B Roustabout Service, turned south onto Main Street from SW Ninth.
About 150 feet south of the intersection, the pickup struck an 8-year-old boy on a bicycle, who was crossing Main Street at mid-block, coming from Whigham Park.
The boy was pronounced dead at the scene.
No citation was issued. Chief Hill said investigation into the accident is con-tinuing. He has requested assistance from the Texas Department of Pubic Safe-ty accident reconstruction team, which should be in Perryton next week.
The chief added that the police department will not be releasing the names of the victim or the driver.

Commissioners have short session
The Ochiltree County Commissioners’ Court had a short session on Friday, May 23. The court met on Friday because the regular meeting fell on Memorial Day.

Texas beef producers cansoon vote in the upcomingTexas Beef Checkoff Refer-endum June 2-6.
Voting will occur at allTexas A&M AgriLife Ex-tension Service offices dur-ing regular business hours,said Dr. Susan Ballabina,AgriLife Extension associ-ate director for program de-velopment at College Sta-tion. Ballabina said thestatewide election is beingconducted by the Texas De-partment of Agriculture inaccordance with provisionsof the Texas Agriculture Code.
Producers can cast ballotsat the Ochiltree CountyTexas A&M AgriLife Ex-tension Service office at theExpo Center.
Eligible producers canvote at any AgriLife Exten-sion office regardless ofwhere they live or wheretheir cattle are located. Pro-ducers may vote as individu-als or as a legal business en-
Texas Beef Checkoffvoting starts June 2
tity. Youth younger than 16years old must have a par-ent or guardian co-sign theirballot. Persons unable to ac-cess an AgriLife Extensionoffice during the voting pe-riod can request a mail-inballot from the Texas De-partment of Agriculture be-tween May 19 and June 2.
“If passed, the producer man-aged program would be fi-nanced through a refundable$1 per head assessment at eachpoint of sale,” Ballabina said.
“The money would beused for promotion, market-ing, research and educa-tional efforts of beef andbeef products in Texas, theU.S. and/or internationally.Funding decisions would bemade by the Beef Promotionand Research Council ofTexas whose members wouldbe appointed by the TexasCommissioner of Agricul-ture from nominees submit-ted by the Texas Beef Council.”
Producers may vote as
individuals or as a legalbusiness entity. Youthyounger than 16 must havea parent or guardian co-signtheir ballot. Persons unableto access an AgriLife Exten-sion office during the votingperiod can request a mail-inballot from the Texas De-partment of Agriculture be-tween May 19 and June 2.
If passed, Ballabina madethe following points:
– Assessment collectionwould begin Oct. 1.
– A producer who haspaid an assessment to theTexas Beef Checkoff mayobtain a refund of the amountpaid by filing an applicationfor refund with the Beef Pro-motion and Research Coun-cil of Texas within 60 daysafter the date of payment.
– The Texas Beef Check-off program differs from thecurrent U.S. Beef Checkoffin two ways, though theTexas program may comple-ment and extend the U.S.Beef Checkoff efforts. First,the U.S. program requireshalf the revenue be paid tothe Cattlemen’s Beef Pro-
motion and Research Board,but all the Texas Beef Check-off assessment would bemanaged by the Beef Pro-motion and Research Coun-cil of Texas. The second dif-ference is the Texas BeefCheckoff assessment is re-fundable.
– Individuals are consid-ered “non-producers” andare exempt from the pro-posed assessment if theyown cattle for less than 10days or serve as a dealer ororder buyer in the salestransaction. Non-producersare also ineligible to vote inthe referendum.

Award BanquetsOver this month, students, family and friends have
gathered to honor the outstanding athletes at the All-Sports Banquet and the outstanding academic stu-dents of Perryton High School at the AcademicAchievement banquet. You could feel the pride asPHS students received a wide ranging number ofawards and scholarships.
It is an honor to the people of Perryton that wetake two special nights each year to recognize thebest in our young people. While many school dis-tricts try to discourage excellence, some have evencanceled some honors because only one student canwin each, the Perryton school system continues itstradition of rewarding the best. The emphasis at eachbanquet was on individual achievement with honorsbestowed for both excellence at athletic pursuits andacademic subjects.
It is no coincidence that many of the same stu-dents are honored both at the sports banquet andthe academic banquet. The pursuit of excellence onthe playing field also carries over to the classroom.Each takes discipline and commitment to do the bestwork.
The melding of the two — athletics and academ-ics — prepares young people for life. Athleticsstresses teamwork and academics are, for the mostpart, an individual pursuit.
It takes a combination of both to make a successin life. Intelligent, committed people working as a teamcan solve almost any problem that comes along.
The people of Perryton should be proud that theyrecognize and honor the best in our young people.That recognition means much more to our youngestcitizens than we will ever know.
Memorial DayTwo times each year, Americans set aside a day
in remembrance of those men and women who haveserved our country in uniform. On Memorial Day andVeterans Day, we honor the over two million service-men and women who have given their lives for thisnation and the 25 million living veterans.
This special time of honoring the war dead wasfirst established following the Civil War. Many citiesand states set aside a day to decorate the manygraves of the fallen war dead. On May 5, 1868 thisday of remembrance was officially proclaimed Deco-ration Day.
Over a half-million men, both Union and Confed-erate, died in the Civil War. It was the largest numberof war deaths in any conflict that this nation has beeninvolved.
The only other war that has cost this country sodearly in American lives was World War II. In oneoperation alone, the D-Day invasion of Europe, over14,000 U. S. soldiers lost their lives on the coast ofFrance. In all, nearly 400,000 American soldiers, sail-ors, airmen and Marines were killed defeating theAxis powers.
Though other wars have not been as costly inAmerican lives as the Civil War and World War II,they were fought just as bravely by United Statesmilitary personnel. Nearly 5,000 died in this country’sfirst war — the Revolutionary War. The British wereagain defeated in the War of 1812 and 2,200 sol-diers of the new nation of the United States lost theirlives.
In the Spanish-American War, 2,400 men in thiscountry’s uniform were killed. During World War I,116,000 servicemen and women died either on thebattlefield or from wounds or illness during the con-flict.
The last half of the last century did not see an endto American sacrifice. In the Korean Conflict over34,000 military personnel died. During the VietnamWar, 57,000 servicemen and women gave their livesto a battlefield far away.
Operation Iraqi Freedom was costly. Over 4,000U. S. military men and women have been killed inthe process of bring democracy to the Middle East.In addition, many American military personnel havelost their lives in Afghanistan or forgotten “peacekeep-ing” actions.
On Memorial Day we honor the memory of thosewho have died for this country. Without their willing-ness to defend and protect this nation, we would notenjoy the freedoms that we have today.
Now that the school yearis drawing to a close and thestudents will be out for thesummer, many young menand women will be pound-ing the pavement lookingfor summer work. Over myyears of high school and col-lege, I tried my hand at anumber of occupations tomake a little extra money.
From bus driver to bar-tender, maintenance fore-man to printer’s devil, I havedone a lot of manual labor.Through all those differentjobs only one stands out asthe worst job I ever had.
In the summer betweenmy freshman and sopho-more years at the Universityof Texas, I decided that I wastired of working at mini-mum wage jobs. There wereso many students at the Uni-versity who needed work,employers enjoyed a hugelabor market and did nothave to pay much for help.
Lured by the promise ofbig money, I signed on thatsummer with an oil fieldworkover company out ofCorsicana, Texas. My col-lege roommate and I haddecided to live at his parents’house in West, Texas (yes,the same West that had thebig explosion) and save allthe big bucks that we envi-sioned making.
The first day on the job, Ithought the owner of thecompany had recognizedreal talent when he saw it.As soon as I had completedthe required paperwork, heannounced that I would bethe “head” wrencher on oneof the crews.
Loading up in one of theconverted Army surplustruck pulling units, I beamedwith confidence. “First dayon the job and I am alreadyhead wrencher,” I proudlythought.
Over the next few monthsI found that the “head”wrencher is not all it is
Summer Jobcracked up to be. It mostlyentailed screwing pumprods out of the ground anduncoupling casing pipe.
While I was baking in theEast Texas sun, usually inthe middle of a windlesspine forest, the assistant“head” wrencher took hisusual position under a shadetree. My assistant onlymoved to get himself a drinkof water or to hand me an-other tool.
Though the job was dirty,hard work, I did consider ita learning experience. Wehad a little ritual we wentthrough each time we cameto a pump jack.
First, we would all climbout of the truck and walkover to the well. Next, thecrew chief would twist somevalves to see if oil was re-ally not flowing from thepump jack.
Then the ritual would be-gin. If there was oil flowing,we would all curse the
pumper for being so stupidto send us out to a workingwell. If there was no oilflowing, we would curse thecompany that drilled thewell, the bunch that built thepump jack and anyone elsewe could think of at the time.
After the required thirtyminute cursing period wasover, we set about taking thewell apart. Of course thatwould require some morecussing, as the rods wouldnot un-screw or the casingspewed oil mixed with saltwater all over the crew.
The standard procedurewas to fix different thingsuntil the well began to pumpoil again. Sometimes, I hadto wrench the same string ofrods back into the hole twoor three times until the thingbegan to work.
I will have to say that mysummer in the oil field wasprofitable. I was so tired atthe end of a ten hour day thatI couldn’t pull my moneyout of my pocket, much lessspend it.
One side benefit to myexperience was that when Ireturned to the University inthe fall, I was far and awaythe best cusser in my frater-nity. But, I knew, afterspending all that time on thewrong end of a rod wrench,that I planned to make myfuture living in an air con-ditioned office.
The geographic cone snailis a pretty, six-inch inverte-brate who lives in the ocean.
It’s brown speckled shellis prized by collectors.
The cone snail is knownby another name as well –the cigarette snail. And that’sbecause if you are stung bya geographic cone snail, youmight have time to smokeone last cigarette before it’svenomous bite kills you!
There is no anti-venom forthe bite of a cone snail. Thebest any doctor can do is treateach symptom as it occursand try to keep the person alive.
But even though thevenom is toxic, some re-searchers are finding that inminute amounts to a specificarea, patients with chronic,severe pain issues may ben-
efit from the geographiccone snail poison.
My feet hurt sometimes, butnot bad enough to be a guineapig for cone snail venom!
It takes less than 1 mg ofpoison dart frog poison to stopa full grown adult’s heart.
Poison dart frogs come inbeautiful colors – bright red,blue, yellow, green, black –but don’t pick one up in thewild, it will mean takingyour death in your own hands.
The poison of dart frogs isused by many South Ameri-can indigenous tribes to huntfor food or kill their enemies.
But it’s a weird occurrencethat poison dart frogs bornand raised out of the jungle,in private aquariums, neverdevelop the toxic venom.
But I still wouldn’t kiss a
pretty colorful poison dartfrog to turn it back into ahandsome prince!
The puffer fish is anotherpoison animal that can killgrown humans. One pufferfish has enough poison in itto kill 30 grown adults.
That’s amazing!All pufferfish have tetro-
dotoxin, which is strongerthan cyanide. But it’s a deli-cacy in Japan and can beserved without killing the eater.
I got stung by a jellyfish onetime. It hurt like the dickens!The box jellyfish has killedover 5,000 swimmers in theoceans around Hawaii, Aus-tralia, Japan and the Philippines.
The box jellyfish venomcauses shock and the heartto stop. Most victims drown,though some make it to shorebefore dying. It’s pretty easyto combat the box jellyfishsting – just apply vinegar.
The Aconite plant is com-pletely poisonous. It’s alsoknown as Wolfbane, Monk-shood and several other names.
Goats can ingest verysmall amounts of the color-ful plant. And somehow,goats know just how muchthey can or can’t eat.
Aconite attacks the ner-vous system. It paralyzes theorgans. There are a few an-tidotes that can lessen theeffects and maybe savelives. They include oak barkand tannic acid. But toomuch of that can cause an-other set of problems.
The Oleander is a horriblypoisonous plant that causesdeadly heart attacks.
I remember watching a moviecalled “White Oleander” abouta woman who killed her loverusing the plant. It starredMichelle Pfieffer and I thinkit was based on a true story.
The article that I foundabout the Oleander said thatif parents are concerned withputting covers on electricaloutlets, they should be evenmore concerned with gettingrid of all Oleander plants.

When one of the nation’smost prestigious higher edu-cation institutions an-nounces a policy change—however slight—it can pro-duce near seismic results—in the eyes of beholders,anyway. “Beholding,” inthis case, are faculty, stu-dents and alumni ofDavidson College. Whoknows what may breakloose?
Buildings may quake,forcing ivy to seek newplaces to climb. The tradi-tion of 90 years is en-trenched, but Dr. CarolQuillen—completing twoyears in the presidency af-ter 20 years’ teaching/ad-ministrative posts at RiceUniversity—has announcedclosure of the campus laun-dry next spring.
She may “batten down”
Davidson College’s‘Washday Blues?’…
hatches, or maybe not….*****
At first blush, it seems a“ho-hum” decision, but itwill save $400,000 annually.Savings are more thanneeded for additional self-serve machines planned forresidence halls throughoutthe campus in Davidson,NC.
Davidson—an all-maleschool founded in 1837 thatbecame co-ed in the mid-70s—has long been consid-ered one of the nation’s best.Acceptance for enrollmentis highly competitive, andgraduates (including Presi-dent Woodrow Wilson) havedistinguished themselves innumerous fields. Endow-ment now exceeds $500 mil-lion, and in 2012 Davidsonreceived a record singlegift—$45 million—from
Duke Endowment.Back to the laundry’s
1911 beginnings….Facultycomplained that students—sometimes heading straightto class from work in thefields—brought with themmalodorous air. (Arrid de-odorant wasn’t yet around,so there were no “half safe”warnings. Hmmm, studentsmay have seen this as a trickto introduce fractions.)…
*****Faculty called for con-
struction of a campus laun-dry, where workers wouldwash, press, fold and pack-age students’ soiled laundry.
The administration re-sponded—albeit a decadelater—and a tradition wasborn. Students were happy,and faculty was happier. (Asa former college president,I’m hesitant to say faculty is“happiest” about anything.)Students and workers cheer-fully mingle, perhaps sing-ing “happy little washdaysongs.” Over the years, thecollege’s “free” laundry ser-vice became a quirky, buteffective “selling point” forprospective students, and acherished tradition for thoseenrolled.
In fact, Davidson honoredLula Bell Houston—whotoiled in the laundry for 57years—by naming it in herhonor when she retired in2004. She is one of twoformer staffers whose namesadorn buildings atDavidson. The structure willbe converted to other uses,but the name remains….
*****For ages, most of the
2,000 students took full ad-vantage of the “free” ser-vice—the actual cost “builtin” the annual price tag thatis now north of $50,000. Inrecent years, though, inter-est has flagged. Most fresh-men use it, but only about athird of seniors are doing so.
Female students preferdoing their own laundry, andsenior guys—opting for sev-eral “wearings” betweenwashes—eschew carryingtheir weighty bags uphill tothe laundry.
A handful of students inoff-campus apartments haveother issues—like convinc-ing parents they are eatingproperly. One mom called,reminding her son to eatsomething green every day.“Relax, mom,” he replied, “Iate some toast just thismorning.”…
*****Alumni, generally, are
“tongue-in-cheek.” LarryDagenhart, proud graduate,respected attorney and Classof ’53 valedictorian, movedhis cheek-languishingtongue to its “upright andlocked position” for com-ment.
Surprised, he responded,“We gave up vespers, wegave up chapel, we went co-ed, we even gave up themarching band, but dad-gum-it, we can’t give up thelaundry. What is the worldcoming to?”
It’s a given that collegestudents are wearing fewerclothes these days, a/c hascome along, and deodorantsare both dependable andhandy….
*****We’ve learned to exist
without trading stamps, andDavidson students will“press on,” even if the laun-dry doesn’t. Davidson isaligning its resources tomeet educational prioritieswithin higher education’schanging landscape.
For now, though, report-ers and headline writers arefeasting on the item. Imag-ine headline possibilities:Davidson: Comes Clean,Scrubs Laundry, Hangs Stu-dents Out to Dry, WashdayBlues and Airs Dirty Laun-dry. (Students will rub theirown dubs, hopefully keep-ing cleanliness and godli-ness in the same yoke.)
Hurrah for DavidsonCollege’s rich history of pre-paring students for whatevercomes next. I’d love to meetLula Bell Houston, whomay feel drip/dry and per-manent press have takenthings too far. Me, I don’tknow whether to wash orhang out….

THE PERRYTON HERALD, Perryton, Texas, Sunday, May 25, 2014Section A — Page 8
Six members of thePerryton High School Fam-ily, Career and CommunityLeaders of America(FCCLA) chapter competedat the state competition inCorpus Christi recently,with two placing.

Q: What’s the differ-ence between a squall lineand a supercell?
A: A squall line is an or-ganized line of thunder-storms, while a supercell isusually just one isolated storm,says Brent McRoberts ofTexas A&M University.“Squall lines form wherethere is unstable air, and of-ten they occur before a coldfront is approaching,” he ex-plains. “A squall line can befairly large – from 10 to 30miles wide and as long as500 miles or more. They canproduce large hail, light-ning, heavy rain, strongwinds and even tornadoes.Supercells are the largestand most severe class ofthunderstorms. Amongstorms, supercells are theleast common type, but canvery often produce severeweather, including damag-ing winds, very large hail,and sometimes violent tor-nadoes.”
Q: Where are they mostlikely to occur?
A: Supercells can occuranywhere in the world un-der the right conditions,McRoberts adds. “But in theU.S., they are most oftenfound in the Great Plainsarea and from the RockyMountains to the Missis-sippi River,” he notes.“Supercells can occur as farnorth as Canada, and tor-nado-producing supercellshave been observed in all 50states except Alaska. Squalllines can occur almost any-where, though severe squallline thunderstorms are usu-ally found in the same re-gions where supercells arecommon. Both squall linesand supercells are found inEurope, and in Great Brit-ain, squall lines are referredto as a ‘blunk.’”
