A Freeland man accused of mur-dering his wife made a quick appear-ance in Island County Superior Court Monday.

Robert “Al” Baker, 61, was scheduled for arraignment and a bail hearing but the proceedings were cut short when Judge Alan Hancock agreed to a request for continuance.

Baker’s counsel, Coupeville attor-ney Craig Platt, asked to reschedule until next month. His request was in cooperation with Senior Deputy

Prosecutor Eric Ohme of the Island County Prosecutor’s Office.

Hancock approved the request and both the arraignment and bail hearing were rescheduled for Aug. 13.

Baker is accused of slaying his wife, Kathie Baker, 53, early last month. Her body was found June 9 wrapped in a tarp in a ravine behind the couple’s Greenbank home. She had been hit in the head, possi-bly with a ball-peen hammer, and strangled with a ligature, according to court records.

She was last seen alive on June

2.Along with owning the Harbor

Pizzeria in Freeland, the couple also worked for Raytheon Corporation, a major defense contractor. Baker is a scientist and spent part of each year in Antarctica.

Oak Harbor gained three new and permanent residents Tuesday with the installation of the “Stumbly Ducklings” bronze in downtown Oak Harbor.

The piece, which depicts a heart-warming scene of two duck-lings being chased by a third that has “stumbled,” was created by renowned South Whidbey art-ist Georgia Gerber. It is the third and final work specifically commis-sioned as part of the SE Pioneer Way Improvement Project.

“I think they are just fabulous,” said K.C. Pohtilla, a member of the Oak Harbor Arts Commission.

She, along with several other arts commission members, city officials and business owners, turned out to watch the installation of the piece on the southern sidewalk between SE Hathaway and SE Ireland Street Tuesday morning.

The overwhelming consensus among the crowd was that the ducklings exceeded all expecta-tions. They are certainly a long way from the cardboard cutout displays that were presented to

One of the first things Bill Walker is doing as new direc-tor of the North Whidbey Park and Recreation District is to float a plan for the tax-payer-funded district to take over his kayak race.

The newly hired executive director is writing a proposal for the North Whidbey Park and Recreation District to purchase and continue orga-nizing the Deception Pass Dash, a kayak race that takes place in December. Walker will present his proposal dur-ing a commissioners meeting Thursday.

Walker said the idea of the park district taking over the kayak race came up during interviews for the position he was eventually hired for. He said the commission-ers were looking at ways to expand programs offered by the park district. Primarily, the district operates the John Vanderzicht Memorial Pool.

Scott Vogt, president of the board of commissioners for the park district, couldn’t be reached for comment.

Walker contacted the Whidbey News-Times about the possibility of the district taking over the race. He said he felt a little awkward about the situation. He is the owner

of the event while he is nego-tiating with his employer, which is funded by tax dol-lars, for the purchase and sale of the kayak race.

Walker has owned and organized the Deception Pass Dash since 2010 through his business, Ruby Creek Boathouse. Since he took the position with the park dis-trict, Walker has been busy closing his business.

The Deception Pass Dash attracts approximately 200 kayakers yearly. In addition, the event needs 50 volun-teers. Walker said it attracts visitors to Whidbey Island during a typically slow time of the year for hotels and stores

in the area. The race, which has taken

place every year since 2006, is held on a six-mile course. It starts in Bowman Bay, goes to Strawberry Island and back to Bowman Day, which is located on the Fidalgo Island side of Deception Pass State Park.

Walker explained why the dash takes place in December. The late-autumn event doesn’t have to com-pete with the pleasure boat-ers and fishermen that clog the picturesque pass during the summer months.

In addition, the unpredict-able weather and unusual currents make it attractive for competitive kayakers. Last year, the dash expanded to a two-day event. The first day was a vendor exposition with a free clinic while the race took place on the second day.

Walker said that between

the sponsorship dollars and the registration fees, he has operated the event slightly in the black in recent years.

He’s still trying to deter-mine a dollar amount for his proposal. He owes money from the previous owner of the dash — the Outdoor Adventure Center. Between the debt and the compen-sation he would hope to receive, the cost shouldn’t exceed $10,000, he said.

If the commissioners for the park district decide against purchasing the Deception Pass Dash, then he would look to sell the event to another commercial organization.

The next North Whidbey Park and Recreation District meeting will be Thursday, July 12, at 7 p.m. at the John Vanderzicht Memorial Pool located at 85 SE Jerome St. in Oak Harbor.

Whidbey General Hospital’s newest commis-sioner was sworn into office at the start of her first board meeting Monday.

Administered by Mary Awe, a hospital administra-tive assistant, Coupeville res-ident Georgia Gardner took her oath of office before the rest of the commissioners and a small audience at the board’s regularly scheduled monthly meeting.

“I, Georgia A. Gardner, do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the State of Washington, and that I will faithfully and impartially perform and discharge the duties of the office of Whidbey Island Public Hospital District, Commissioner, District 2, according to the law, to the best of my ability,” Gardner

repeated. District 2 covers Central Whidbey, extending south just outside Freeland.

The hospital commission-ers, a five-member board, unanimously selected Gardner to fill the vacant District 2 seat at a special meeting in June. She was one of six candidates seek-ing the position.

She replaces Paul Zaveruha, a doctor at the hospital who resigned this past April for personal rea-sons.

Gardner, who grew up in Coupeville, is a certi-fied public accountant. Her resume also includes eight years as a Blaine city coun-cilwoman and five years as a Washington State represen-tative for District 42.

Anne Tarrant, president of the board, said in an inter-view following Monday’s meeting that the appoint-ment process was an inter-esting experience and she was very satisfied with the

commissioners’ selection.“I think she will be a great

asset to the board, particu-larly with her background in finance,” Tarrant said.

Gardner, who weathered her first meeting with prac-ticed and polished poise, said she may be new to hos-pitals but that wasn’t her first rodeo in the arena of elected public office.

However, she said she did get some coaching from hos-pital staff before the meeting on methodology and proce-dure.

Gardner said she sees many financially related challenges evolving for hos-pitals in coming years and is eager to roll up her sleeves and get to work, especially for an organization that is so essential to her hometown.

“I’m an island girl,” Garnder said. “I was here before Whidbey General Hospital and I want it to be the best hospital it can be.”

Newly appoint-ed Whidbey General Hospital C ommi ss ione r Georgia Gardner, left, shakes hands with C ommi ss ione r Anne Tarrant, board president, after her first meet-ing Monday.

The League of Women Voters of Whidbey Island will host a primary forum for District 2 Island County Commissioner candidates tonight.

The forum is scheduled to be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 11, at the Oak Harbor Elks Lodge, 155 NE Ernst Street, in Oak Harbor.

Candidates seeking the District 2 seat include incumbent Democrat Angie Homola, Republicans Jim Campbell and Jill Johnson Pfeiffer, and Independent

Phil Collier.The league is changing its

forum rules this year. The big difference is that questions will not be taken from the crowd. Instead, candidates will be quizzed on issues from a list of predetermined questions created by league members.

The other change is that candidates will now get the chance to respond to the answers of other candidates. Each will be given three “chal-lenge” cards to be used at any time during the forum.

A separate forum just

for District 1 candidates has also been scheduled and will run from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 19, at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island, 20103 State Route 525, two miles north of Freeland.

The league reminds the public that people can only vote in the district where they live during the primary elec-tion. The district lines have moved slightly and voters should check their new voter registration cards to verify which area they are in.

First meeting set for Thursday

The Trust Board of Ebey’s Reserve, in partnership with the National Park Service and the Coupeville Lions Club, announces the fifth annual Ebey’s Reserve Preservation Field School project for 2012: the Carriage House of the Pearson-Engle Farm, circa 1858.

The 2012 session will kick off Thursday, July 12, at 4 p.m. with a pre-Field School Workshop on the Carriage House site. Owner and lega-tee David Engle will be on hand to share his stories about the history of his fam-ily’s farmstead.

The Ebey’s Reserve Field School was established in 2008 to provide technical support to owners of the Reserve’s historic buildings, and to give community mem-bers a hands-on opportunity to help preserve nation-ally significant buildings for future generations, accord-ing to a news release. It is a collaborative effort of the Trust Board, National Park Service, Coupeville Lions Club and Preservation Crew volunteers – both residents of and visitors to Whidbey Island.

Led by the National Park Service, this highly suc-cessful program attracts a diverse group of volunteers – historians and handymen – all interested in preserving buildings that contribute to the historic fabric of Ebey’s Landing. On one hand, the Field School provides oppor-tunities for learning and applying the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Preservation of Historic Buildings. But more impor-tantly, volunteers learn new techniques in the company of neighbors and new friends

– a modern version of barn-raising.

After all, the Reserve was founded not just to protect buildings and prairies, but to recapture some of the meaningful community tra-ditions that have been lost to the march of “progress.” Volunteers of all skill levels, from the community and beyond, are invited to par-ticipate in the unique fellow-ship of the Preservation Field School.

Reserve Manager Mark Preiss said, “Every year pres-ervation experts from across the region lead this four-week long field school, bring-ing neighbors together and increasing the local base of preservation expertise right here in Central Whidbey.”

Ron Boyer, four-time vol-unteer said, “I always learn something new from the school. As a history buff, learning how our ancestors split shakes or pointed brick-work really brings their world alive for me.”

This year’s project, the Pearson-Engle farm Carriage House, is part of a signifi-cant cluster of farm buildings attached to the 2 1/2 story Queen Anne home at 89 S. Ebey Road. One of the oldest homes in the Reserve, the house was built in 1858 by B. Harmon. Daniel Pearson purchased the farm in 1869, and he in turn left it to his daughter Flora and her hus-band William Engle. It has been in the Engle family now for four generations.

The Carriage House, which included a second-story workshop, was built by William Engle sometime after 1878, when he and Flora moved into the house. They planted an orchard with apples, pears and walnuts behind the house, along with the Carriage House. Visible from Terry Road, the building

is in dire need of emergency stabilization, and with a work plan by local historic building surveyor Harrison Goodall, and under the direction of the National Park Service, the Field School Preservation Crew will accomplish just that.

Conducted over a four-week period between July 18 and August 9, Mondays through Thursdays, the school offers volunteers flex-ibility in participation in four-hour shifts (8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m.), for as many or as few shifts as the volun-teer desires.

In addition to Thursday’s workshop, a Brown Bag Lecture will be open to the

public at noon on Wednesday, Aug. 1, on the project site, titled “More than a Carriage House: Why Heritage Buildings Matter.”

The project closes with a barbecue for the volunteers, held on the last day of the proj-

ect in the shadow of the new-ly-stabilized Carriage House. Participants will receive a unique and exclusive Ebey’s Reserve – Carriage House ball cap.

Sign ups are now open for all shifts of the Field School,

so sign as soon as possible. If you have questions or would like to register and sign up for shifts, contact Lynn Hyde at Ebey’s Reserve at 678-6084 or at Lynn_Hyde@partner.nps.gov.

The Carriage House, located on the Pearson-Engle Farm, will be the next restoration project of the Ebey’s Reserve Preservation Field School, which kicks off July 12.

At Oak Harbor High School’s senior assembly, students were not the only ones surprised with year-end recognition. Three of the top employee awards issued by the independent Excellence in Education Committee went to high school staff.

Pottery teacher Frank Jacques was called out of the bleachers in front of the student body to accept his award as Teacher of the Year. Jacques is an 18-year teacher who has been at OHHS since 2002.

In reading Jacques’ nomi-nation form, Superintendent Rick Schulte said, “When you see the work that Frank Jacques’ students produce, you would wonder if there is something special in the water. His students leave his classes proud of their abili-ties and are even recognized in regional and national shows.”

This year, a record five stu-dents had artwork accepted into the National K-12 ceram-ics exhibition. Only 150 students nationwide were selected for this show, put-ting OHHS among the very best of the best.

Yet, the anonymous nomi-nator had a different reason for the honor. That person wrote, “Frank has made a variety of disabled students welcome in his classes. He has been a key support for a challenging (special needs) student and he enthusiasti-cally embraces placement of profoundly disabled (Life Skills) students in his class-es.”

Forty-four NJROTC cadets signed the nomina-tion for Chief Bill Thiel to be Employee of the Year

and when his name was announced, the crowd erupt-ed with approval.

“It is no coincidence that since his arrival seven years ago, the Secretary of the Navy has recognized Oak Harbor High School NJROTC as a Distinguished Unit with Academic Honors each year,” Schulte told the audience, reading from the nomination.

“Through his deep person-al commitment to the person-al growth and development of all NJROTC students he also contributes directly to their many individual accomplish-ments,” the nominator wrote. “He has high expectations for all students and seems to instinctively know when they need his sympathetic support or a no-nonsense motivational session.”

Thiel also coordinated the Northwest Drill and Rifle Conference Championship, hosted by OHHS in April. This involved 27 schools, 750 competitors and more than 100 judges and volunteers.

Jay Turner was named Coach of the Year, after lead-ing the Wildcat football team last fall to finish with an 8-2 record. In the spring, as head coach for the boys track and field team, he led the team to both the conference and district titles for the first time since 1978.

“Coach Turner works hard

to make sure students have a rewarding experience when they turn out for football or track and field,” his nomina-tor wrote. “He credits play-ers for the teams’ successes and makes sure they receive recognition for their efforts when possible. He surrounds himself with assistant coach-es that care about student

athletes and are very knowl-edgeable in their respective areas.”

The Volunteer of the Year went to Cathy George, who has made a big difference to kids helping with the high school’s culinary arts team and as chairwoman for the Oak Harbor Educational Foundation’s Bud Skinner

Breakfast for Education.“It is Cathy’s leadership

that has made this event so successful over the last several years,” according to her nominator. “Cathy has made it possible for many, many students to participate in ‘out of the box’ hands-on projects.”

George has been volun-

teering in these roles even though she no longer has any children in school.

“It’s about the kids to Cathy,” he nominator wrote. “It’s about their success and it’s about them having the chance to learn and grow. She is a wonderful example of how to give back to your community.”

First of all, the meet-ing held on March 21 was to inform the public of the feasibility study of Swan Lake to determine if it can be opened to Puget Sound to provide an estuary for juvenile salmon to rest and regain their strength before they continue out to sea.

Most fishermen and mem-bers of the Skagit Fisheries Enhancement Group (SFEG) know that if you can increase the survival rate of the juvenile salmon, you will increase the number of mature salmon returning to our rivers.

At no time during the presentation did SFEG say

that they were going to raise salmon in Swan Lake. “Death knell for fish” is a dramatic and questionable statement. The purpose of this feasibil-ity study is to determine if Swan Lake can be opened to the sound without any adverse effects to homes along West Beach Road and to provide a safe haven for juvenile salmon.

“Angie Homola’s bridge to nowhere,” is another ques-tionable statement. Not only is Commmissioner Homola doing a great job addressing the concerns of today, she is also looking at the future and the benefits of preserv-ing salmon runs returning to our rivers, and for this she gets my vote. This feasibility study is fully funded from grants, with the majority of the funds coming from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board. At any time, if this feasibility study proves this

project not to be doable, it will be stopped immediately.

Progress�seen� in�Freeland

The Freeland community should be very proud to hear what the Freeland Water and Sewer District has accom-plished since January 2012 with Marilynn Abrahamson and Lou Malzone as new com-missioners and Eric Hansen (incumbent commissioner). What it means to residents of Freeland is significant cost savings and common sense decision making.

The Holmes Harbor Mobile Home Park has been reclassified from commercial to residential. They are now saving almost half on their water bills, a welcome relief to many of the low income residents.

Island County sales tax grant funds are no longer being used to pay for engi-neers and consultants for an oversized, overpriced sewer plan. A new civil engineering firm will be selected soon that better reflects the goals of the current board of com-missioners. The contract with the president of the Freeland Chamber of Commerce to seek grant money for the $40 million sewer was also not renewed.

A new attorney was hired who specializes in water util-ity law/land use planning and attends monthly meetings. The commissioners have attended various training sessions sponsored by the Washington Association of Sewer and Water Districts on utility law and district financ-es. They are the first FWSD commissioners to do so.

When the search for a site for a new Oak Harbor sewer plant began, one thing was certain: No one wanted it in Windjammer Park, where the present sewer plant has given off a malodorous odor for decades and frightened people away from the otherwise attractive east end of the city’s number one attraction for locals and tourists alike: its waterfront.

Since no one wanted the sewer plant sited in the water-front park, it would have made sense to eliminate that site from consideration from day one. Instead, city fathers and mothers kept it in a mix, always among the options, until -— presto — it’s one of two finalists!

That’s hardly a surprise. After all, the present sewer plant already exists, all the sewer pipes in town lead there, and it’s obviously less costly to build another plant where the old one is located. It’s like keeping the toilet behind a curtain in the living room. Adding a new bath-room to the house would be considerably more expen-sive, so why not just purchase a prettier curtain?

That’s what a committee appointed to consider designs for the new sewer plant on the beach came up with. Make it less odiferous with a better design, make the building prettier, maybe throw in a amphitheater at the sewer plant to enjoy music while the solids are settling, add enticing public restrooms, or even wedding facilities. Imagine the fond memories of getting married in a room above the sewer plant, with its spectacular view of Oak Harbor Bay. Just make sure there are plenty of electrical outlets for those plug-in air fresheners. Lavender would smell nice for a wedding. The trouble is, guests with imaginations will swear they’re smelling something else.

There’s another site in the running for the sewer plant, on private property on the north side of Crescent Harbor Road. Running all the lines out there and the costs of pumping the effluent in a different direction will probably prove too expensive, assuring us of another 50 years of a sewer plant in Windjammer Park.

It sounds ridiculous, but not long ago a vast majority of the citizens who spoke out were against making Pioneer Way a one-way street. This proves that just because the people don’t want something, there’s a good chance they’ll get it anyway.

decision-makers during the selection process, said Rick Lawler, an arts commission member.

“They look a whole lot bet-ter in 3D,” he said.

“It looks just ducky,” he laughed.

The piece is the result of efforts that began in 2010 when the Oak Harbor City Council gave the green light to spend up to $80,000 on public art as part of the down-town renovation project.

The arts commission, which serves as an advisory group, spent six months com-ing up with a list of five pieces to present to the council for approval but things didn’t go exactly as planned.

Last minute funding issues resulted in expected hard-ships and just three pieces were ultimately approved. They included a bronze mer-maid at the intersection on SE Dock Street and the silver piece called “Moon Waves” at the intersection with SE Midway Boulevard.

Both have since been com-pleted and installed.

The ducklings, the last of the three planned projects --- a fourth gateway piece could be installed sometime in the future --- was installed by Gerber and a small team of helpers as drivers slowed to watch. She also was pleased with the result.

Gerber, who has complet-

ed works in cities across the nation and state, including the famous pig in Seattle’s Pike Place Market named “Rachel,” had cast similar smaller versions of the duck-ling scene and used them as a template.

“It was so fun to see them enlarged,” she said.

The bronze that was installed is and will remain a one of a kind, however. It was

one of the requirements of the $33,000 contract.

Gerber said the building process began in January and took about six months to complete. Little details that were indistinguishable in the smaller models, such as texturing, added a special touch to the final piece that will only become more visible with time and handling from the public, she said.

Although Gerber’s work can be seen in cities through-out Washington, she said it is particularly nice when pieces she’s done are displayed on Whidbey Island where she lives and works.

“It’s an honor to be in a town so close and I hope people enjoy them through the seasons,” Gerber said.

Kathie’s boss reported to police on June 7 that he couldn’t contact her and asked for a welfare check. Baker allegedly told Island County Sheriff’s deputies that she had flown to Denver, Colo., for her job.

Investigators later found that another woman, who

had flown in from Alaska, had been staying at the house since June 3. According to a police report, she reported that Baker had said his mar-riage to Kathie was over and that he wanted a romantic relationship.

On a later visit, Baker reportedly allowed sheriff’s deputies to search the home. They found a small pool of blood on the master bed-room carpet and drag marks through the house.

Returning with a search warrant on June 9, police fol-lowed the drag marks to the ravine in the backyard where they discovered Kathie’s body. She was wrapped in a tarp, bound with rope and bungee cords, and had been dead for several days.

Baker was immediately arrested and on the following Monday, a judge set his bail at $5 million. He has also been formally charged with first-degree murder and domestic

violence with a deadly weap-on enhancement and aggra-vating circumstances.

Monday’s proceedings would have given Baker the chance to enter a “not guilty” or “guilty” plea and for Hancock to consider a motion to reduce his bail or allow him to be released on personal recognizance.

He remains in custody at the Island County Jail in Coupeville.

A Coupeville man had a painful start to his Fourth of July parade in Oak Harbor.

Dewey Moon was in the staging area for the Fourth of July parade located on the Seaplane Base when he was hit by a pickup truck. The truck hit him in the hip and then rolled over his foot, said

Moon’s wife, Cherie. Moon was volunteering

for the Coupeville Arts and Crafts Festival, which had a spot in the parade proces-sion. Because the Moons’ car was located at the other end of the parade route, it was decided that Dewey would ride the trailer through the

procession. After that, they would go to the hospital.

Cherie said the sever-ity of the injury her husband sustained is not yet known. They’re waiting for the swell-ing to go down.

The Moons called the police, but they aren’t inter-ested in any charges com-

ing from the accident, Cherie said. She wants to find the driver of the pickup so they can get insurance informa-tion to help pay for the cost of treating the injury.

If anyone has information about the accident, call Moon at 360-639-8346.

Game of the week The Oak Harbor Legion baseball team wraps up its home summer season at 6 p.m. Thursday.

SPORTSWhidbey

By JIM WALLERSports editor

Battery mates Kenneth Morrow and Chris Trisler put a charge in the North Whidbey Little League 11/12 all-star team as it zapped South Skagit 11-1 Sunday in the opening weekend of the District 11 Major League Tournament at Windjammer Park.

The win, coupled with a bye in the first round, pushed North Whidbey into the semifinals against Burlington-Edison Tuesday. Results were not available at press time. The winner jumps to the finals at 6 p.m. Thursday. The loser plays a loser-out game at 6 tonight.

In the win over South Skagit, Morrow pitched four-and-two-third innings, struck

out 10 and surrended only two hits.

Trisler sparked the offense, smacking a single, double and home run and driving in seven runs.

Morrow added punch at the plate, as well, going 2-for-3 with a home run.

North Whidbey took con-trol from the outset. After Morrow blanked South Skagit in the first inning, Trisler got things rolling in the bottom half with a two-run home run.

In the second, South scored its one run, then NWLL added four more of its own. With one out, Morrow hit a towering home run over the left-field fence. With the help of a walk to Dylan Bailey and a single by Eli Bryson, North Whidbey loaded the bases

and then Trisler cleared them with a double.

In the fourth, Will Danielson and Bailey singled and Trisler plated them with a base hit. Paul Southerland singled in Trisler to make it 9-0.

North Whidbey 10-runned South Skagit in the fifth when Jason Runkle and Morrow singled and scored on Danielson’s hit.

Coach Terri Mebane said she was pleased her team “stayed focused” and didn’t get “lazy” once it jumped to an early lead.

NW 10/11 team falls in title tilt

North Whidbey was blanked 10-0 twice by host Sedro-Woolley in the 10/11 district tournament, the latest coming Friday in the champi-onship game.

However, and though the final score may not show it, North Whidbey made the champions sweat Friday for the first time in the tourna-ment.

Sedro-Woolley cruised through the first three rounds in dominating fash-ion, winning 24-2, 11-1 and 10-0, and scoring in almost every inning of every game.

In Friday’s title tilt, Sedro-Woolley found itself in unfa-miliar territory, in a close game. It led only 1-0 until the bottom of the fifth inning when it erupted for nine runs to secure the crown.

North Whidbey coach Dave Delano said, “We lost to a better team, but the kids represented their community, their parents and themselves well; I couldn’t be prouder.”

NWLL starter Brandon Wells held heavy-hitting Sedro-Woolley in check for the first four innings before the fifth-inning explosion.

Delano said, “The pitching didn’t get worse, they just got the timing down and started to hit him.”

Delano added that Wells was supported by a strong defense, which was “truly spot on” and led by shortstop Trevor Sheils, who “played an unbelievable, amazing game.”

Offensively, David Levy reached base twice and Donny Kloewer ripped a line-drive single.

In recapping the tourna-

ment, Delano said, “Everyone made plays, everyone got hits,” adding his club lived up to its motto, “One Team, One Fight.”

Delano said most of the team’s success “wouldn’t have happened” without the work of assistant coaches Phil Sellers, Jason Vogt and Mark Soto. “They were truly a blessing for the team and the kids,” Delano said.

Members of this year’s team were Hannah Barnes, Ethan Cosper, Joseph Dixon, Marcus Foxx, Tomothy Sellers, Daniel Soto, Tim Steinke, Nathanael Thompson, Shane Vogt, Miranda Wilson, Levy, Kloewer, Sheils and Wells.

OH Babe Ruth earns No. 2 seed

Shaking off the effects of a heart-breaking, extra-inning loss earlier in the week, the Oak Harbor 13/14 Babe Ruth baseball team played one of its best games of the year in upsetting Burlington-La Conner 12-2 in five innings in the district tournament Friday in Burlington.

The win earned Oak Harbor the No. 2 seed out of district behind champion Sedro-Woolley for the state

Babe Ruth tournament in Port Angeles July 19.

Oak Harbor stepped on Burlington, the pre-tourna-ment favorite, early with a four-run first and kept the pressure on as it scored in each inning.

Burlington hurt its cause with 14 walks, and Oak Harbor mixed in nine hits to make the most of its oppor-tunities.

Christian Bertram and Kevyn Johnson led off the first with walks and scored on Robert Herring’s hit-and-run double. After Sean Erskine walked, Preston Rankin’s sin-gle scored Herring. Erskine stole home when Rankin was thrown out on the back end of a double-steal attempt.

Burlington scored one in the bottom of the first, and Oak Harbor got it back in the second. Johnson walked, moved up on Herring’s single and scored on Tyler Snavely’s base hit.

In the third, Oak Harbor made it 6-0 when Erskine sin-gled and eventually scored on a bunt by Fred Miller.

Burlington-La Conner scored its final run in the bot-tom of the inning.

A five-run fourth blew open the game. Johnson lined a single off the third baseman’s glove and Herring ripped a shot down the third

base line to get things start-ed. Consecutive walks to Snavely, Erskine and Rankin forced in two runs. Then Erskine scored all the way from second on a pitcher-to-catcher-to-first double play. After Alex Harrison walked, Trent Benson singled in the fourth run. Bertram was hit by a pitch, and Johnson’s walk plated the fifth.

Snavely started the fifth inning with a single and scored after walks to Rankin, Zuniga and Max Van Dam.

Herring ended the day 3-for-4 and Snavely 2-for-3.

The Oak Harbor defense committed only one error, and coach Bill Young said his club received “great plays” from Zuniga, Snavely, Johnson, Benson, Rankin, Bertram and Erskine.

Benson pitched the first three innings and Johnson finished up. The pair allowed only two runs on five hits while striking out two and walking only one.

Young said his team “clear-ly showed up to play” and offensively was “patience at the plate” and used “proper execution of hit-and-runs and bunts.”

He added, “It is rare to beat a Burlington-coached team, and to 10-run them is unheard of.”

Fishing season in full swing

Summer fishing seasons are now in full swing, and salmon, steelhead, crab, sturgeon, trout, bass and walleye are all now available for harvest in waters around the state.

The Skagit River and Baker Lake are good pros-pects for sockeye salmon in July, according to the WDFW.

All areas of Puget Sound except one opened for crab fishing July 1, the exception being Marine Area 7 in the San Juan Islands. The season is on the regular Thursday-through-Monday schedule.

For additional information on fishing regulations, see WDFW’s 2011-12 Fishing in Washington rule pamphlet, available from sporting goods stores and other license vendors. The pam-phlet is also available online at wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/regu-lations.

Rumble receives preseason honor

Oak Harbor High School graduate Rodrick Rumble, a senior football player at Idaho State University, has been named to the Sports Network preseason Football Championship Subdivision All-America team.

In 2011 Rumble set an Idaho State record for re-ceptions in a season with 112 and the second most receiving yards in school his-tory with 1,348.

The 6-2, 201-pound wide receiver is tied for sixth all-time in single-season receiv-ing touchdowns with nine and twice had 14 receptions in a game, third best in ISU history. Against Washing-ton State, Rumble had the school’s third-best effort with 218 receiving yards.

Rumble’s performance last year earned him first-team, all-conference Big Sky as well as earning College

Sports Madness, Phil Steele, the Sports Network and the Associated Press All-American honors.

The Sports Network FCS preseason All-America team consists of 93 players split over first, second and third teams. Rumble is a second-team selection.

Rumble is also having success in the classroom. He was a member of a six-person team from the mass communications Advertising Campaigns class that won the Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Company of Idaho Student Marketing Plan Contest.

The Oak Harbor Legion baseball team closed out its nonleague schedule with a pair of wins, 7-3 and 10-6, at Sequim Sunday.

Oak Harbor (6-7, 11-13) fin-ishes league play with 6 p.m. games at Stanwood tonight and at home with Lynden Thursday.

In the opening game at Sequim, Oak Harbor had only two hits, but seven Sequim errors, five walks and two hit batters helped Oak Harbor push across seven runs.

Oak Harbor scored in the first on two errors and Jack Richter’s sacrifice fly.

In the second, it scored two more on three errors and Jozef Mendoza’s single.

Anthony Stewart’s sin-gle was the only hit in the Wildcats’ three-run third.

Mendoza walked in the sixth and eventually stole home for the final run.

Starting pitcher Clay Doughty held Sequim score-less until the sixth when it scored all three of its runs. Andrew Snavely pitched the seventh.

In the five-inning second game, it was Oak Harbor’s turn to commit seven errors, but the Wildcats were able to overcome the shaky defense with seven hits and taking advantage of Sequim walks,

hit batters and three errors.Oak Harbor scored six in

the first inning. Three hit bat-ters, a walk, error, sacrifice fly and singles by David Kusnick (two RBI) and Snavely pro-duced the runs.

Sequim responded with five runs in the first on two hits (one an inside-the-park home run), a hit batter and four Oak Harbor errors, then tied it at 6 with a run in the second.

In the third, a walk, Doughty’s bunt single and an error gave Oak Harbor a 7-6 lead.

In the three-run fourth, Oak Harbor scored with the help of singles by Grant Schroeder, Snavely, CJ Meders and Stewart.

None of the runs scored against pitcher Brent Mertins were earned.

Snavely went 2-for-2 and scored three runs.

Kathleen was 88 years old and was born in Springfield, Ill., on Jan. 26, 1924. Her Irish immigrant parents, Patrick and Winnifred McLaughlin, instilled in her great pride in her Irish-American heritage which she passed on to her family.

On August 11, 1943, Kathleen married the love of her life and high school sweetheart, Gerald Hammond, in Memphis, Tenn. shortly after he joined the Navy. During their 68 years of marriage together, Kathleen spent her life car-ing for her husband and family throughout Gerald’s military service in WWII and civilian careers, which moved them all over the country. She was also active in community, church and charitable organizations in Bellevue, Issaquah and Oak Harbor.

Kathleen had a deep love

and devotion to her family and was also dedicated to helping others and con-necting with everyone she met. She demonstrated all a strong woman can be.

Kathleen was preceded in death by her son, Dennis, earlier this year. Surviving Kathleen are her beloved husband, Gerald Leon, her children, Gerry, Michael, Kathleen, and Greg, seven grandchildren and seven g r e a t - g r a n d c h i l d r e n . Kathleen is also survived by her sister Mary, Mary’s family and beloved friends. She will be greatly missed by all those whose lives she touched.

By REBECCA OLSONStaff reporter

Murder has never been so hilari-ous --- or so badly botched --- as in “Murder at the Howard Johnson’s,” a Whidbey Playhouse show open-ing Thursday, July 12 and running through July 22.

What’s a girl to do when she has fallen for a smooth dentist but her husband won’t give her a divorce? Well, there’s always murder.

Arlene, played by Sami Postma, thinks it will be easy to kill her husband, Paul, played by Dustin Amundson. After all, she is a “blos-somed” woman who now reads books and knows she isn’t happy with Paul anymore, especially now that she has Mitchell, played by Bob Foster. As a dentist, Mitchell claims he can have any woman he wants, and right now, he wants Arlene.

Murder seems simple as Arlene and Mitchell plan it out while wait-ing for Paul to show up at their room at the Howard Johnson’s. But from the minute Paul walks through the door, their plans collapse so disas-trously that the audience won’t be able to quit laughing.

Instead of hitting Paul over the head when he walks through the door, the lovers make the mistake of conversing first. Throughout their marriage, Paul, a clueless used car salesman, has bought Arlene every gift he can to show his love, but when Arlene tells him he couldn’t buy her happiness, dumbfounded Paul replies, “You’re talking about a very small part of life.”

With each of the characters clue-less in his or her own ways, their silly remarks keep the audience laughing. As Arlene points out that Paul’s entirely gray wardrobe just can’t compare to the stripes, checks and colors of Mitchell’s outfits, the characters’ foolishness may make them seem simple, but that only adds to the complexities of their murder attempts.

As Paul cooperates while Mitchell binds him to a chair with their neckties, Arlene dreams of the life she’ll live after Paul: dancing, excitement, a whole new world! Life seems beautiful for a moment --- until Mitchell’s novocaine ends up injected into the wrong person and Paul emerges alive from their murder attempt saying, “That does it. Tomorrow, we’re seeing a mar-riage counselor.”

Act two opens with Arlene on the verge of committing suicide. It’s been months since she’s seen Paul and caught Mitchell cheat-ing. However, Paul shows up at Arlene’s room at the Howard Johnson’s with fried chicken and

beer to comfort Arlene and notes the changes he’s made in his life, including buying five colored ties --- even though they’re all the same color. Together, they hatch a plan to kill the man who has ruined both of their lives: Mitchell. As Mitchell comes bursting through the door, how will the murder attempt fare this time?

This “American farce,” as described by director Stan Thomas, follows the trio as each pairs up to rid each other of the third in a series of hilarious and badly bun-gled encounters that take them out the window, into Batman boxers and to the gallows.

“You will not leave this theater without smiling,” Thomas said. He was so amused by the play that he added another character, the maid, played by Debbie Blase.

“If you think about what would a maid do if she walked in on ...” Thomas pointed at the gallows in the center of the Howard Johnson’s room on stage. “It tickled my funny bone.”

This play by Ron Clark and Sam Bobrick is a very American com-edy, Thomas said.

“It’s three idiots trying to kill each other,” Foster said, adding that it was interesting learning the ins and outs of his character as Mitchell’s true colors show as he devolves

from being “the suave guy” to “actu-ally a baby and an idiot.”

When Amundson first read the script, he said, “I didn’t know if I could get up on stage and not laugh.” Despite it being a farce, he said there’s a lot of reality to draw from, and his past marriage helped.

“If you need marriage therapy,

come see this,” Amundson said, joking that you might just find out your spouse wants to kill you.

Postma said working with Amundson and Foster was a hoot.

“It’s so much fun! I’m having a ridiculous amount of fun here,” she said. This is her first play at the Playhouse.

Despite the laughs, Thomas said the show required tons of work. However, the actors molded their characters and he was pleased.

“A director has to trust his actors,” Thomas said.

“If you like doing it, it’s no work at all,” Amundson said. “It’s like spending three or four hours at a bar with friends except you’re sober and making stuff up.”

Or maybe it is like a bar, Postma added, laughing, because “I got to make out with two guys.”

Foster said that the experience was a lot of fun.

“If you haven’t done a show here, I encourage you to audition for the next one,” he said.

A group of COUPE-VILLE AND OAK HAR-BOR STUDENTS affiliat-ed with the Whidbey Island Boys and Girls Clubs met with Sen. Maria Cantwell June 27 in Washington, D.C.

There were also students in the group that are af-filiated with Boys and Girls Clubs from Arlington, Sno-homish and students from throughout Pierce County near Joint-Base Lewis-McChord.

All of these students come from military families. They were in D.C. as part of a trip arranged by the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Close Up, a nonprofit that brings students from throughout the U.S. to the nation’s capitol.

Sen. Cantwell introduced herself and shook each stu-dent’s hand. The students then had a chance to ask her questions about the federal government and her views on issues.

“It was a very productive conversation and I enjoyed meeting with the students. They asked questions on topics ranging from aero-space to poverty to health-care,” Cantwell said in a news release.

Eastern Washington Uni-versity’s College of Science, Health, and Engineering has awarded multiple students with honors. The students were recognized with a re-ception at the Honors Con-vocation on June 15. The next day, during the 2012 commencement ceremony, all recipients of the awards were asked to stand for

acknowledgement in front of their family, friends and peers. The students’ honor achievements were dis-played by different colored honor cords draped over their traditional graduation robes. ALLISON WOLF-GANG, 22, major in biol-ogy, is a member of Alpha Omicron Pi Women’s Fra-ternity, Sigma Alpha Lambda Leadership and Honors Or-ganization, and Pre-Physical Therapy Club.

She was joined by several more students from various cities and states who achieved awards and recognition from the EWU College of Science, Health, and Engineering.

She will attend graduate school at Baylor University, pursuing a PhD in English. Bouchard has also been chosen to be a Lilly Graduate Fellow.

Commissioner Lee Grose, Lewis County (R) and ANGIE HOMOLA, Island County (D) received the

first ever “Book End” award at the Washington State Association of Counties Legislative Steering Com-mittee de-brief meeting in Chelan County. The award was presented to honor their “exemplary efforts in reaching across the aisle to establish legislative priorities of state wide significance.” The award singles out a Democratic and a Repub-lican county commissioner from all of the 39 counties in Washington state who demonstrate the greatest amount of bi-partisanship in the conduct of their office.

Ten Washington high school seniors received the Horatio Alger State Scholar-ship. From Coupeville High School, TAYLOR LAW-SON received the award. The Horatio Alger State Scholars are chosen based on their demonstrated com-mitment to education, dedi-cation to community service and strength of character in overcoming personal ob-stacles to achieve academic excellence.

Each scholar will receive $5,000 that will go toward their college tuition fees, books, on-campus room and board and other education-related expenses. In addition to the scholarship, the stu-dents will receive financial aid guidance to assist in the

selection of and prepara-tion for college; access to the association’s website, where students can create online profiles, search for fellow scholars, update their personal information, sub-mit disbursement requests and direct questions to the association; and access to a toll-free information line to speak with program coordinators for assistance with questions about their scholarships and other edu-cational programs.

The Horatio Alger As-sociation’s scholarship programs are funded by its members, friends of the organization and other foundations. Since 1985, the association has provided $733,125 in scholarships to high school seniors from Washington.
