What neither police department can ac-
complish on its own, they may be able to ac-
complish together.
Deciding to go a different direction with
detention services, Burleson Police Chief Billy
Cordell said his department is “getting out of
the jail business.”
Cordell is hoping Crowley PD is willing to
increase its jail business by partnering with
BPD to create something neither city has – a
manned detention facility.
Relocating its headquarters to a new build-
ing, the Burleson Police Department will no
longer have on-site space for a jail.
“We have the option of having it monitored
by video, but that’s not the best situation,” Billy
Cordell said, noting liability is a key factor in
the decision. “Typically, you would have some-
one at the facility to run it if you have prison-
ers housed there, but we don’t have detention
officers.”
Crowley has the facilities Burleson needs,
but like its neighbor, it lacks dedicated jail staff.

Jail proposal positive for Crowley
■ Housing Burleson prisoners would be a“win-win”
In a proposal that could increase services for both
cities, the two departments are considering collabora-
tion.
“Burleson wants to fund two detention officers –
salary and benefits – in a five-year contract for jail
services in Crowley,” CPD Chief Luis Soler said, ad-
dressing the Crowley City Council last week. “They
want to bring all adult arrests here. They would pay
a daily 24-hour rate of $15, which is normally higher,

The Mighty Panther Band, under the direction of Rudy Salazar, will be strutting its stuff Saturday night in a halftime
extravaganza during the annual intra-district Crowley v. North Crowley football game. The game will take place at 7
p.m. at Birdville ISD Stadium. As a special treat for all the fans, both the Crowley and North Crowley band and drill
teams will give their individual performances, then play together during the halftime entertainment.

Being on summer break doesn’t
mean Rep. Joe Barton (R-Dist. 6)
is playing golf and vacationing on a
beach.
Instead, the Republican Con-
gressman from Ennis has spent
his time off being “on” throughout
his district, including a visit to the
Crowley Star.
“August is my district work
period, though I’m sure the vot-
ers call it a vacation. I’d like more
time at home in Texas so I can bet-
ter serve,” Barton said, adding that
Congress spends too much time in
Washington. “People are not happy
with what’s going on in Congress.
They say Washington isn’t doing
anything, but the reality is they’re
not happy with Obamacare and the
president. He’s not doing anything.”
As for Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid (D-Nevada) stating
publicly that he plans to keep more
than 300 bills on his desk until after
the midterm elections, Barton said
he’s banking on the representative
to follow through on his threat.
“I’ll take that bet,” Barton said
with a grin. “The American people
are not stupid. They will do the right
thing and if the people want the
government to do nothing, they can
vote for Reid and the Democrats. If
you want to get things done, elect
more Republicans.”
Barton said he hears all the time
that government is “a mess, but re-
member, the voters have caused the
mess because they don’t think alike.”
He said liberals in California
and conservatives in Texas reflect
the people in those states who vote.

A local business woman said she be-
lieves Crowley’s proposed tax rate is “bad
for small business.”
Cathy Smith, a Crowley resident who
owns and operates Cowtown Sleepers lo-
cated on Interstate 35-W in Fort Worth,
told the council at its Sept. 4 meeting that
the city should consider lowering the pro-
posed rate.
“I’m a small business person, and in 37
years, I’ve been through many economy
blowouts. In 2008, when the economic
crashed, property taxes didn’t go down.
Property taxes never go down,” Smith
said. “Small business people are generally
the middle class and we’re the ones being
taxed here. We need to make a profit be-
cause we provide jobs and are responsible
for the livelihoods of others.”
With property values up, the city has
proposed to keep the current tax rate of
$.6968 per $100 of assessed valuation or
$696.83 for a $100,000 home. That rate
will bring $5,175,063 to the city’s bank ac-
count.
But Smith said increasing valuations
should prompt the city to cut the rate, not
just keep it at the same level.
“I feel like the city can do better for its
citizens,” she said. “It can tighten it’s belt
just like small business owners have to
tighten their belts. You take the hits as a
small business operator, but you make it
work. I feel like the city could be more fis-
cally responsible.”
Smith said new developments such
as End o’Trail Ranch and Crestview will
bring more homes and more money to city
coffers, but fears small businesses will flee
the high tax rate.
“I see growth in the city, but I don’t see
many businesses because most small busi-
ness people put their businesses in Bur-
leson, which has a lower tax rate,” Smith
said, noting she’d done a review of tax
rates and Crowley is the highest around.
Mayor Billy Davis said that is not true,
adding that Burleson and Crowley have
the same tax rate and that Burleson’s rate
is about to go up 5-cents per $100.
“And Fort Worth is .80 cents so I know
we’re not the highest,” he said.
The city has held two of three required
public meetings on the proposed tax rate.
The last meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m.
Sept. 18 at the regular city council meet-
ing.
In other city news, the council ap-
proved an ordinance rezoning a 24.559
acre tract of land south and east of S.H.
Crowley Intermediate School, and adja-
cent to the End o’Trail Ranch develop-
ment, from agricultural to single family
development.

Have you ever noticed that thieves don’t break into
houses to steal the paper cups, toilet paper, and Kleenex?
They go for what’s valuable. They go for the jewelry and
the plasma screen and all the expensive
stuff.
The Bible says that Satan is a thief.
He comes to steal, kill and destroy.
That’s why Satan is after your life,
because you’re valuable. You may not
feel valuable, but you are! And that’s
why he’s out to destroy your life. That’s
why you’ve been through what you’ve
been through because you’re valuable
to God.
I have learned over the last several
years that where the devil is concerned,
nobody can fight your battle for you.
It’s up to you and God. I’ve also discovered that you will
never outgrow warfare, you simply have to learn to fight.
To me, the key word in that statement is you.
I would love it, as full of faith as my mom and dad
are, if they could fight my battles for me. You know, just
depend on dad to fight it for me. But I’ve learned that
Satan could care less who your parents are. He could care
less how many times you’ve been to church, or how many
books and CDs you have in your own library at home. He
just doesn’t care.
He is out for your life. He’s out for your testimony,
and he’s out to destroy your future. He does not want you
doing what God put you on this earth to do. He will do
anything to keep that from happening. And one way he
does that is by keeping you tormented by your past.
I know because it’s something I’ve battled very strong-
ly in my own life. I can’t count the nights I’ve laid in bed
tormented by the pain of past experiences and the effects
of choices in my life. It was affecting my life so badly that
one day I clearly heard the Lord say to me, “If you choose
to go back to the past I have delivered you from, your life
can be summed up in one word: regret.” Wow! God is
serious about us letting go of our pasts!
I heard a story about a consultant who asked people
what one of the most important things in their life was.
The answer he received over and over was: “I want my life
to count.”
He also asked their greatest fear. What he found was
that most people confided that their greatest fear was that
their life would be meaningless and that they would die
with their potential untapped. Well, I want you to know
that one of the ways that Satan can keep you from ever
tapping the potential that God gave you is by keeping you
locked in your past.
In Luke 17:32, there are only three words. It says, “Re-
member Lot’s wife.” The story of Lot’s wife is in Genesis
19 starting in verse 17. It says, “Escape for your life, don’t
look behind you.”
Lot and his wife were being saved from the destruction
of Sodom and Gommorah. God told them one thing: Don’t
look back. God just wanted to save them and take them to
a new life. He had a whole new plan for them, and all He
said was, “Don’t look back.”
If you know the story, Lot’s wife looked back, and she
turned into a pillar of salt. I heard Joyce Meyer say, “She
lost her life because she looked back.” You, too, can lose
your future by looking back.
If you keep looking back at the life that God has
delivered you from, you can lose your future. If you keep
looking back at an old relationship that God told you to
get away from, you can lose your future. If you keep look-
ing back at old friends that remind you of the drugs, the
alcohol, and the partying, you can lose your future.
When God told Lot’s wife not to look back, He was tell-
ing her that everything He had for her was ahead of her.
He was telling her that He forgave her of all that stuff in
the past. It was over with. Don’t even glance in that direc-
tion any more. Everything He has for you is ahead of you.
I believe that God is telling us the same thing. It’s time
to get over your past. Don’t let the potential that He gave
you stay untapped because of your past. God is the Great
I am, not the Great I was. He’s today. Everything about
Him is today and tomorrow. Let’s go somewhere. Let’s get
a future and a plan. Quit looking back. Don’t destroy your
future because of your past. Remember Lot’s wife. She
lost her future because she looked back.

Huntington's disease
needs funding
I am writing to strongly
urge my Representative to
co-sponsor the Huntington's
Disease Parity Act of 2013
(H.R. 1015) and to ask my
Senators to cosponsor the
Senate Companion, S. 723.
If passed, the Huntington's
Disease Parity Act would
ake it easier for people with
HD to receive Social Secu-
rity Disability and Medicare
Benefits.
Huntington's Disease
(HD) is a hereditary, degen-
erative brain disorder for
which there is, at present, no
effective treatment or cure.
HD slowly diminishes an
individual's ability to walk,
talk and reason.
Eventually, every person
with HD becomes totally de-
pendent upon others for his
or her care. HD profoundly
affects the lives of entire
families -- emotionally, so-
cially and economically.
By co-sponsoring the
Huntington's Disease Par-
ity Act of 2013, members
of Congress can show their
support for not only for
this family, but the nearly
1,000,000 Americans who
are touched by this terrible
disease.
Sincerely,
Jan Morrow, Rendon
LETTERSTOTHE EDITOR
The Boston Consulting
Group just released a study
comparing manufacturing
costs around the world, and
the United States fared sur-
prisingly well. Writing about
the U.S. and Mexico, the au-
thors explain the improved
manufacturing environment
saying, “Because of low wage
growth, sustained productiv-
ity gains, stable exchange
rates, and a big energy-cost
advantage, these two nations
are the current rising stars of
global manufacturing.”
The big energy-cost ad-
vantage is the key.
While China struggles
with higher energy costs, the
United States is just scrap-
ing the surface of its natural
bounty of fossil fuels. The
innovative unlocking of a
vast sea of natural gas and
oil over the past decade has
transformed the United
States’ position in the future
of where world manufactur-
ing will grow and prosper.
In fact, CNBC reports that
natural gas prices alone have
fallen by between 25-35
percent in the past decade in
North America. This drop
in energy
costs is
contrasted
by a 135
percent
rise in
natural
gas costs
in China.
And
the U.S.
manu-
facturing
sector is
begin-
ning to
respond with federal govern-
ment measures of industrial
production up 0.4 percent for
its sixth consecutive monthly
gain, the Federal Reserve
reported last week. Manu-
facturing output advanced
1 percent in July, its largest
increase since February.
CNBC quotes Hal Sirkin,
a senior partner at The Bos-
ton Consulting Group saying
that the old assumptions that
manufacturing is cheaper in
Asia and South America have
“fundamentally changed.”
“This means companies
will start to move manufac-
turing out of those expensive
countries if they can, to
cheaper countries like the
U.S.,” Sirkin said.
Increased U.S. manufac-
turing means more much
needed good paying jobs,
and while the days of hun-
dreds of workers operat-
ing alongside one another
building a car is outmoded, a
resurgent U.S. manufactur-
ing sector is welcome in what
has otherwise been a jobless
recovery.
These are the exact kind
of jobs that our nation still
desperately needs as the
Bureau of Labor Statistics
has found that more than 7.5
million Americans are work-
ing part-time because they
can’t find a full-time job.
What’s even more startling is
that for the U.S. Department
of Agriculture reports that
the number of food stamp
recipients remains at crisis
levels with more than 45
million people receiving food
assistance each month for
three straight years.
Ironically, the very Obama
Administration which pur-
ports to want to help those in
need is pushing regulations
like EPA’s proposed power
plant rules. Regulations that
put the very energy cost ad-
vantage our nation currently
enjoys at risk by deliberately
driving up energy costs by
closing down dozens of coal
burning power plants. The
same agency is also pushing
ozone standard regulations
that the House Energy and
Commerce Committee says
“is already contributing to
uncertainty and holding back
investment.”
America’s free enterprise
system and abundant natural
resources have given our na-
tion another opportunity to
rebound from the moribund
new normal of despair that
President Obama and those
of his ilk seem to embrace.
The only question that
remains is whether America
will choose a path toward
prosperity or the continual
downward drift to the ash
heap of history.

I like good news, except
when the good news turns
out to be false.
Recently it has been
reported that we have been
misled by social scientists for
decades about the divorce
rate in the United States.
Some are writing that the
divorce rate has never been
close to 50 percent, and that
the actual divorce rate is
near 20 to 25 percent.
If it were true that mar-
riage is in much better shape
than previously thought, it
would indeed be very good
news. But it simply isn’t true,
and making such claims put
people at risk.
One of my sociologist
colleagues uses the nation-
ally representative Gen-
eral Social Survey covering
the years 1996 to 2006 to
quickly show that the divorce
rate is much higher than 25
percent. In this survey, “ever
married” 30- to 49-year-olds
were examined. The phrase
“ever married” means that
the sample consisted of
people who either currently
are or had been married.
Of this sample, 46.5 per-
cent either had already di-
vorced, or
had their
marriage
ended by
legal sepa-
ration.
Note that
this is not
a projec-
tion of the
propor-
tion who
would
eventually
divorce.
This is the
proportion who had already
divorced. If any of the people
who were married at the
time of the study went on to
divorce later, it would push
the divorce rate even higher.
Some of the people in the
sample – especially those at
the younger end of the age
range – who had recently
married surely did, or will
go on to, divorce. The claim
that about 50 percent of new
marriages will end in divorce
is right on target.
Presenting an overly
optimistic view of marriage
will harm people. One way
people will be harmed is
that some will avoid getting
good premarital counseling,
believing that only dysfunc-
tional people need it. But
everyone is happy when they
are engaged, even those who
will go on to divorce. Peo-
ple’s feelings of love do not
predict the future. Marriages
can only be improved if
people are humble enough to
know they may need to de-
velop some marriage skills.
Those who are married, or
who are considering mar-
riage, need to know that there
are normal ups and downs in
any relationship that lasts a
lifetime. When we tell people
that marriage is easy, they
interpret normal challenges
as indications that the rela-
tionship is doomed. They are
likely to reason that if mar-
riage is so easy, they would
not have any problems. When
problems arise one or both of
the partners may decide the
relationship was just a bad
choice.
Most people want to
have a permanent marriage.
This desire is well founded.
On average, married people
fare better than their single
counterparts on a number
of outcomes such as wealth,
health and happiness. We
cannot encourage lifelong
happy and healthy marriages
by telling people that the
risks to their relationship are
quite small and there is not
really much work required.
The claim that divorce
is rare may be intended to
encourage people. But giving
people the false picture that
marriage is relatively easy is
not good news and will prob-
ably lead to more divorces
and fewer happy marriages.
The good news is that
there is hope. The skills for
having a successful marriage
can be learned. Satisfying,
lifelong marriage is a realis-
tic goal. However, achieving
that goal requires a proper
understanding of the risks
and challenges. The risks
and challenges can be ad-
dressed only if we acknowl-
edge them. Marriage is a
challenge, but the challenges
can be overcome.

SPECIAL TO THE STAR
Lessons learned in the
previous week’s loss came
in handy for the Crowley Ea-
gles as they met the Mans-
field Legacy Broncos, ranked
ninth in DFW, last Friday
night. Lesson No. 1: from
the start, the Eagles dem-
onstrated that they would
execute at a higher level on
both sides of the ball.
The offense maintained
control of the ball in the
first quarter. After a sus-
tained and balanced drive,
it was only a short- yardage
tipped interception thrown
by senior quarterback Zach
Copple that denied a first
quarter touchdown.
The Eagles defense used
physical play to hold the
Broncos on their first two
possessions, but gave up a
score set up by a well-exe-
cuted Broncos fake punt.
The Eagles would get the
ball back late in the first and
drive down the field to score
at the start of the second
quarter on a 15-yard Copple
pass to senior receiver Akel
Bryant.
The frenzied Eagles de-
fense would quickly force a
Legacy fumble recovered by
sophomore defensive end
Zayvon Jackson. Four plays
later, Copple connected with
senior route runner Adam
Aguirre on a 10-yard strike
for pay dirt. The Eagles de-
fense earned another stop,
supported by senior defen-
sive lineman Larance Shaw,
who controlled of the line of
scrimmage.
The offense followed up
again with a balanced five-
play drive. Two passes for
31 yards to Aguirre, and two
runs by junior running back
Michael Williams racked up
15 yards and a 3-yard touch-
down run.
On defense, a big hit by
junior safety Kenneth Cole-
man stopped a Broncos
drive yet again, and four
plays later, Williams caught
a Copple pass for a 41-yard
score.
Senior kicker Dylan Lee
went 2 for 2 on extra points
with one being blocked and
a hold miscue on the other.
After an errant punt snap
gave the Broncos another
score late, the half ended
with the Eagles on top 26-
15.
Throughout the first half,
CROWLEY EAGLES 40, MANSFIELD LEGACY 37
CROWLEY STAR/HOWARD EISENBERG, CLICKPICSPHOTO.SMUGMUG.COM
Junior safety Kenneth Coleman dashes to the end zone for a pick-6
with defensive standout sophomore Zayvon Jackson and freshman DT
Cameron Preston looking for blocks. The Eagles defense battled, held,
and created opportunities that led to the win.
Senior quarterback Zach Copple bounces outside on a keeper to gain
some much-needed yardage in the Eagles win at Mansfield Legacy
Friday night.
Eagles show promise at Legacy
the Eagles offensive line of
junior center D.J. Laven-
der, senior guard D’Vonte
Williams, junior guard Jack
Crowsey, senior tackle Mi-
chael Diaz, and junior tackle
Jakob Weaver owned the
trenches, dictating the scor-
ing opportunities.
However, the Broncos
would adjust at halftime and
Eagle points would be hard-
er to come by. Holding the
line on defense, the Eagles
would stay strong.
Then, a bad snap by
Legacy gave the ball to
the Eagles offense in scor-
ing position. Copple con-
nected again with Aguirre
for 14-yards, which set up a
1-yard TD run by junior run-
ning back Corey May.
With the lead, the physi-
cal Eagles defense battled
hard to hold on. The power-
ful squad took advantage of
the Bronco’s passing game
earning five takeaways on
hits and pressures, includ-
ing two fumbles recovered
by Larance Shaw and Zay-
von Jackson, and three in-
terceptions.
Big junior safety Darius
Curtis picked off two, while
Coleman stepped in front
of a throw and took the ball
48 yards to the end zone for
a classic pick-6. The game
ended with the Eagles on
top 40-37.
“We are happy with the
win and proud of the im-
provement we saw. We will
keep working, eliminating
mistakes, and getting bet-
ter,” coach Chris James said
after the game.
Next on the schedule,
the Crowley Eagles take on
6-A North Crowley at 7 p.m.
Saturday at Birdville ISD
Stadium. As a special treat
in this intra-district game,
both the Crowley Mighty
Eagles Marching Band and
the North Crowley Mighty
Panther Band will perform
their individual competi-
tion shows, then perform
together.

With a second win last
Friday, it seems that noth-
ing can keep the North
Crowley backfield from
their appointed rounds.
The Pony Express of Kris
Barnes, Tony Tunstall and
Dez Henderson kept the
Panthers moving forward
against the Saginaw Rough
Riders, bringing home a 22-
21 victory.
Starting out on defense,
the Panthers found them-
selves picked apart by the
Rough Riders’ balanced at-
tack. Mixing up the calls,
Saginaw keep the Panthers
off balance, driving 98
yards for the first score of
the game on a John Polston
9-yard quarterback keeper.
Kicker Mauricio Rodriguez
split the uprights for the 7-0
lead.
The Panthers opening
drive was fraught with er-
rors, giving the ball back
to the Roughriders in four
plays.
Threatening to drive the
field again, the Rough Rid-
ers were stopped in their
tracks by linebacker Jona-
than Hood, who batted
down one pass, and stuffed
two run plays. Defensive
end Chase Coleman put an
end to the drive, dropping
the running back in the
backfield and pressuring
Polston for an incomplete
pass to force a punt.
Starting the drive at
their own 40, the Panthers
looked to their workhorse,
Kris Barnes, to eat up some
yardage, while thorough-
breds Tony Tunstall and
Dez Henderson tore up the
outside, along with quarter-
back Given Tippins-Hill.
Barnes drove the end
zone on a 1-yard dash, fol-
lowed by a Tanner Wright
PAT for a 7-7 score just sec-
onds into the second quar-
ter.
Saginaw’s next drive
was moving down the field
until a string of incomplete
passes and a fourth-and-
one stuff by tackle Robert
Brown forced a Rough Rider
punt. The Panthers couldn’t
capitalize on the possession
as Tippins-Hill was picked
at the Saginaw 6-yard-line.
With momentum, the
Rough Riders drove the
NORTH CROWLEY 22, SAGINAW 21
CROWLEY STAR/STEPHEN STIPE, MIRAVISTAPHOTOGRPHY.COM
Hitting his stride on the outside, senior running back Kris Barnes
turns on the afterburners to torch the Saginaw Rough Riders for a
big gain Friday.
NCHS Pony Express delivers
field for a touchdown and a
half-time score of 14-7.
“We initially came out a
bit flat,” coach Eugene Rog-
ers said of his Panthers. “We
allowed our opponent to
score first, but we fired back.
I’m proud of our can-do-not-
gonna-quit attitude.”
And it was that attitude
that brought the Panthers
back after the break, scoring
on a 13-yard blast by Barnes
on North Crowley’s second
possession. Wright, again,
split the uprights for the 14-
14 score.
The back-and-forth
between the two schools
continued into the fourth
quarter when Polston and
company drove 80 yards to
take a 21-14 lead with time
winding down. The Panthers
squandered their next pos-
session, but a key intercep-
tion by corner back Marquis
Hunt on the NCHS 34-yard-
line, which he drove down
to the eight. Revving up the
horses, Barnes took it to the
house for a 21-20 score.
With faith in the Express,
Rogers went for the win, call-
ing a handoff to speedster
Tunstall for the go-ahead
conversion.
With time for one last
drive, the Rough Riders
made a go, but DB Solo-
mon Doyle dashed the home
team’s victory hopes with an
interception on the NCHS
28 to end the game.
Barnes finished with 123
of the team’s 198 ground de-
livery yards. The Panthers
mustered only 22 yards via
airmail.
On defense, Hood racked
up 12 of the Panthers’ 72
tackles, followed by Doyle
with 11.
Offensive MVP for the
game was Tunstall with
Brown taking O-line MVP
honors. Hunt earned defen-
sive Player of the Game sta-
tus for his key interception,
while the defensive Hustle
Award was shared by Doyle
and Hood. Special teams
MVP was kicker Wright,
who was perfect on the
night, and the special teams
Hustle Award went to punter
Spenser Shillam for his sky
high save of a bad snap in
the first quarter to prevent a
sure SHS score.
“Our kids overlooked
Saginaw. We need to work
on respecting all our op-
ponents and getting the de-
fense off the field on third
downs,” Rogers said. “We
also need to eliminate stupid
penalties.”
The Panthers will travel
to Birdville ISD Stadium
Saturday for the annual in-
ter-CISD game against the
Crowley Eagles. Rogers said
the Eagles are a well-coached
team and tough every year.
“They are very physical
and athletic. We are prepar-
ing for them as if it’s a play-
off game,” he said, giving re-
spect to Coach Chris James’
team.
Game time is 7 p.m.

After punching Corner-
stone Christian Academy
of Granbury in the mouth
in the first quarter of TCAF
nondictrict 6-man foot-
ball action Friday, the Li-
ons of Nazarene Christian
Academy took a couple of
gut wrenching blows them-
selves.
“We jumped out with a
20-6 lead in the first quar-
ter and had them down, but
Cornerstone fought it’s way
back in the second and third
quarter to beat us,” coach
Bobby Johnson said of the
loss to the team he just left
to coach at NCA. “In the
end, we lost 52-40.”
Cornerstone outscored
the Lions 16-6 in the second
and 23-7 in the third quarter
to out-pace the home team.
“We learned a lot from
this loss. We learned we’re
on track to have a good sea-
son,” Johnson said. “We’re
purposefully playing good
teams, and Cornerstone is
a good team. Our boys got
down and they didn’t quit.
I’m proud of the way they
played.”
Still developing the of-
fense, Johnson said body
blows in the form of injuries
to key players means more
juggling on a short roster.
“Our place kicker, Da-
vid Walton, broke his collar
bone in practice Monday. It
was just a freak thing. I told
the boys to find me a soccer
player and we’d teach him to
kick,” Johnson said. “They
brought me Ryan Herndan.
He’s never played football in
his life, but he made the first
PAT of the game.”
Injured during the game
was safety Cade Mitchell
who, in another freak fall,
injured himself and ended
the game with a partially
collapsed lung.
Leadscorerfromlastweek,
Daniel Flynn, was also out,
but Johnson said injuries are
not an excuse for a loss. They
are an opportunity to discover
new talent, like Herndan and
Isaiah Sommers.
“Isaiah is an up-and-
coming standout – our
surprise for the season,”
Johnson said of the back-up
running back. “This is his
first season running the ball
and he ran well. He had an
outstanding effort in block-
ing down field and never
took a down off. He will be-
come a leader on this team.”
Johnson applauded of-
fensive Player of the Game
Mike Duffey, who again led
the team down the field on
several drives.
“Mike is a 100-percenter.
He wasn’t feeling well before
the game, but he played fan-
tastic offensively,” Johnson
said, noting Duffey gained
a lot of yardage, but didn’t
strike paydirt.
Senior Josh Beaird led
the team in rushing with 122
yards on 15 carries for two
touchdowns. Zach Olsen
scored the team’s only other
rushing touchdown of the
game.
In the air, the Lions took
it to the house four times,
with Beaird, Kyle Hutto, Lo-
gan Weems and Zach Olson
each pulling down a pass in
the end zone.
Beaird also led the team
in tackles with 15 of the
team’s 58 stops, followed by
Olson with 10.
“Our first five games
were stacked with really
good teams on purpose. The
boys know we’re playing up
so that we’re ready for dis-
trict and this will also teach
them to persevere in tough
situations. Football is often
the perfect opportunity to
teach life experience,” John-
son said.
The Lions will host Cov-
enant Christian Academy in
Crowley Friday. Game time is

The war is coming and the
Lady Panthers are ready to
do battle.
On the eve of the 2014
District 3-5A volleyball open-
er, North Crowley has been
building momentum for the
task at hand – knocking off
district powerhouses Arling-
ton and Arlington-Martin.
Downing two strong oppo-
nents last week to prepare,
the Lady Panthers are confi-
dent in their preseason prep.
“The girls have been serv-
ing well, and the offense is
starting to really pick up,”
Coach Stephanie Cunning-
ham said. “We are still fo-
cusing on being able to side
out for points off of serve re-
ceive. We are excited to start
district play this week against
Paschal since our preseason
has mentally prepared us for
all of the teams we will be
competing against.”
Friday, North Crowley
put down Irving 25-19, 25-13,
25-20 in the final non-league
match up.
Racking up 36 team kills,
the Lady Panthers looked to
Rachel Henderson to provide
the fire power. Henderson
pounded 10 kills and 17 tips
around the block, with Court-
ney Bolf adding eight kills
and 15 tips to pace the team.
Taking aim at the service
line, senior setter Bayli Kemp
put 25 serves across the net
with no errors and four aces
to lead the NCHS squad.
The Lady Panthers were
perfect on serve receive, put-
ting up 71 perfect passes for
setter Bayli Kemp. Bailey
Abbot led the way on recep-
tions with 24 clean passes,
followed by Bolf with 17 and
Emily McMichael with 16.
Playing solid at serve and re-
ceive, it is the second game
the North Crowley squad has
been perfect with the pass.
NCHS v. LD Bell - The
Lady Panthers gave a lesson
in net control to the Lady
Blue Raiders of L.D. Bell
Tuesday as they shut out the
visitors in three, 25-20, 25-

Providing the protection at the block are Lady Panthers Rachel Henderson,
left, and Izzie Hinton, who put the roof on a Martin hitter at the Arlington
ISD volleyball tournament earlier in the preseason. The Lady Panthers are
gunning for Martin, whom they’ve only beaten once in school history.
Twin wins end
preseason play
Amassing 35 kills, the
Lady Panthers relied on a
balanced hitting attack to
subdue the Bell defense. Bolf
delivered nine blows while
Taylor Williams and Izzy
Hinton, both juniors, and se-
niors Abbott and Henderson
added six each to the total.
At setter, Kemp charted
45 assists to feed the NCHS
offensive beast.
Continuing to work on
their serving game, the Lady
Panthers logged eight aces
and seven errors on 75 to-
tal serves. North Crowley
was perfect on serve receive,
with no errors logged. Bolf
and McMichael led the team
total of 53 positive pick-ups
with 20 and 19 respectively.

Winning two out of three
last week, the Lady Lions (11-
3-1) of Nazarene Christian
Academy are gearing up for
district play and a run at the
state TCAF title.
Taking on Temple Chris-
tian of Fort Worth Monday,
NCA put down their oppo-
nent in three quick games
25-16, 25-19, 25-23.
As a team, the Lady Li-
ons are still working on their
serves, logging seven errors
and four aces on 57 serving op-
portunities. The ladies are also
refining their hitting game,
logging 37 kills and 19 missed
opportunities at the net.
On defense, NCA contin-
ues to work on serve receive.
The team logged 16 errors
and 33 perfect passes.
NCA2,SouthwestChris-
tian 3 – On only their second
loss this season, the Lady Lions
fought to the bitter end.
Losing in five games, 21-
25, 25-21, 24-26, 25-18, 11-
15, NCA found serving to be
its Achilles heel.
Scoring only three aces
and logging five missed
serves, the Lady Lions strug-
gled a bit from the line. Mor-
gan Davis led the way with
20 attempts for one ace and a
single error to pace the team.
The Lady Lions laid down
49 kills, but missed on 33
other attempts at the net.
Makayla Shonamon pounded
19 into the dust, while Mar-
laina Crossland drilled 15.
On defense, serve receive
stymied forward progress for
the NCA ladies.
As a team, the the ladies
blew 29 service receptions,
connecting on only 56 for
perfect passes and logged
only three blocks. Kaitie
Schmidt was the ball mag-
nate, scooping up 29 of the
team’s 56 digs on the loss.
NCA 3, Keene 1 – Trav-
eling south to Keene High
School Sept. 2, the Lady Li-
ons had a slow start, but
came roaring back after the
Lady Chargers torched them
27-25 in the first game.
Coming alive, the NCA
squad pulled their serving and
serve receive efforts together
to win the next three and the
match 25-14, 25-15, 25-16.
As a team, the Lady Li-
ons logged 12 missed serves,
most in the first game, and
only two aces of 88 success-
ful serves.
At the net, the Lady Lions
charted 28 kills, with Shona-
mon drilling down 11 to lead
the team. Shomanon added
three of the team’s nine suc-
cessful blocks.
On defense, the Lady Li-
ons combined for 27 serve
reception errors, over half of
the 12-game preseason total
of 47. They also managed 32
perfect passes on the win.
Krystal Thrash led the team
in digs with eight, followed
by Shonamon with seven,
and MacKenzie Owen and
Kaitie Schmidt with six each.
The Lady Lions took on
Fort Worth All Saints Tues-
day night in a game that end-
ed after press time. They will
host Hill High School at 6:30
p.m. tonight, then take on
Fort Worth THESA at 6:30
Monday in Crowley.

Split catches Lady
Lions by surprise
With District 8-5A volley-
ball action set to start Friday,
the Lady Eagles took on two
final high-stakes preseason
opponents to prepare for the
uphill battle ahead.
Hosting Azle last Friday,
the Crowley girls scratched
and clawed, but could not
best the 10-7 Lady Hornets,
falling 25-12, 25-18, 26-24.
No individual statistics were
available for the game.
“Even though we suffered
a loss against Azle, I felt
like the girls really turned it
around after a tough week-
end in Leander and are fo-
cusing and preparing for dis-
trict,” Lady Eagles coach Kim
Wheeler said.
CHS traveled to Midlo-
thian Tuesday in a game that
ended after press time.
The Lady Eagles are 7-13
in preseason play and move

tion Friday, opening against

PROPOSAL: Burleson hopes to use Crowley jail
RATE: Hearing Sept. 18BARTON: Visit to Star
FROM PAGE 1A
FROM PAGE 1AFROM PAGE 1A
but that would be offset by
them paying for the deten-
tion officers.”
The benefits to CPD are
threefold, Soler said.
“We would have staff to
cover daily jail shifts seven
days per week. It would bring
in added revenues and it
would free up our patrol of-
ficers to be on the streets, not
taking care of prisoners in
the jail,” Soler said.
This has been a problem
for both departments.
Currently, Soler and
Cordell said patrol officers
are called in to feed prisoners,
assist judges with arraign-
ments, perform bonding pa-
perwork, release prisoners,
and handle visitation, laun-
dry and cleaning.
“Every minute one of our
officers is not patrolling the
streets is time away from
what we should be doing for
our citizens,” Cordell said.
“Crowley has a very nice facil-
ity and the room and options
for us to form a partnership
that is good for both of us.”
Soler agrees.
“Our officers need to be
on the streets,” he said. “In
the last year, there have been
740 calls for service to the jail
that our patrol officers have
had to cover – 92 arraign-
ments, 366 personal details,
and 382 releases. This totals
657 hours or 27 days.”
In short, Soler said, those
657 hours translate into a
solid $12,666, “not counting
meal times.”
With daily capacity for 24
inmates, Crowley is currently
averaging four to five inmates
per day, with an average stay
of 1.7 days. It is projected that
the proposed contract with
Burleson would likely add
three inmates per day, with
an average stay of 2.07 days.
Under Burleson’s propos-
al, Crowley would hire two
full-time detention officers to
man the jail during day-time
hours when inmate activity
is highest. Burleson would
reimburse Crowley around
$80,000 in annual salary
and benefits for those offi-
cers, plus be responsible for
annual raises.
“Burleson will also cover
the cost of any IT related is-
sues to make their systems
compatible to ours and their
judge will come here person-
ally,” Soler said. “We can also
look into some kind of closed
circuit video, but right now,
it’s not a problem for them to
come here.”
During overnight hours
when detention officers are
not on duty, the proposal
states officers from both cities
will book their own inmates.
“The positive for us is we
will be putting our officers
back on the streets,” Cordell
said, noting cost for two de-
tention officers is less than
upkeep of a separate jail fa-
cility. “We won’t have to deal
with feedings and checking
on prisoners because there
will be someone at the facility
during the day. We can drop
them off at the Crowley facil-
ity and, unless there’s a med-
ical issue, our guys are back
doing their jobs. It’s a lot
closer than the county jail.”
Cordell said he recently
touredtheCrowleyjailandsaid
he was extremely impressed
not only with the jail itself, but
the department as a whole.
“The lieutenants were very
professional. I was very com-
fortablewiththemandIbelieve
this proposal is in everyone’s
best interests,” he said. “We see
it as a win-win and something
that is good for all of us.”
Soler agreed.
“I really want to pursue
this,” he told the council.
Mayor Billy Davis said his
main concern was the pro-
posed $15 daily rate.
“Is that high enough? We
need to break even or make a
profit or what’s the sense in
doing it?”
Soler said the money
earned from the daily inmate
rate would be profit.
Davis said the length of
the contract was his only oth-
er concern.
“If this doesn’t work out
for some reason, we’re tied
down to a five-year contract
that takes two years to get
out of,” he said, noting the
two-year termination clause.
“However, right now, it looks
like this should work.”
The news that Crowley is
willing to move forward with
the proposal was a relief to
Cordell.
“We would love for a con-
tract to be in place by Janu-
ary 1 if possible, but if it takes
a little longer, we wouldn’t
mind being out of the jail busi-
ness by July when we move
into our new facility,” he said.
“We’re willing to work on it to
get it done as fast as we can,
but nothing is firm until a
contract is signed.”
The landowner petition-
ing was Mindy Bauer. The
Bauer family, which owns the
land, is planning to begin de-
velopment in the new future.
At question in the rezone
was the size of lots.
The Bauers originally
asked that 19.48 acres be
zoned 7.2, or 7,200 square-
foot lots, and the remaining
5.09 acres be zoned 8.4, or
8,400 square-foot lots. How-
ever, a last minute change
would have turned a por-
tion of the 8.4 land into 7.2,
a move some on the council
disagreed with.
“I’m opposed to changing
the 8.4 to 7.2,” Councilman
James Dornan said, noting
7.2 is the smallest lot size in
the city limits. “Once you re-
zone something down to 7.2
you can never put it back up.”
Councilwoman Tina Pace
agreed.
“It may be easier to leave
it at 8.4 than change it down
because we’re limiting our
8.4 possibilities [for people
who want larger homes and
larger lot sizes],” Pace said. “I
know we want to provide for
more affordable housing, but
people also need to be able
to get larger lots. We need
to be able to offer larger lots
to those who want them and
have a good mix.”
The measure was ap-
proved by a 3-2 margin with
Christine Gilbreath and Jerry
Beck voting no, and Davis
abstaining due to a conflict of
interest.
“Congress reflects the
people, it really does. When
we’re voting on the house
floor, we don’t have anything
in common. After we’re done,
I go to lunch with some of the
democratic representatives
from Dallas. We have a great
time talking about home and
how the Cowboys are doing,
but put us on the House floor
and they’re on the left and
I’m on the right. That’s who
we represent.”
Barton said the only way
to fix the problem is to meet
in the middle.
“The classic idea of hav-
ing your own way all the time
doesn’t work,” he said, citing
the Affordable Care Act as a
perfect example of partisan
politics. “Obamacare was their
[Democrats] bill – their law
with no input, and it’s terrible.
Iftheyhadworkedwithus[Re-
publicans], had some give and
take, and maybe a few amend-
ments, it would be better.”
Trying to fit everyone into
a one-size-fits-all medical
plan, Barton said, does not
work for most Americans.
“And government control
of the health insurance in-
dustry doesn’t help,” he said,
noting individual state man-
dates have caused a vacuum
in the insurance industry,
which, without competition,
have resulted in higher rates
for less coverage.
“More competition within
the industry by doing away
with state mandates would
be very helpful,” Barton said.
“That would make all policies
available in all states. There
would be more competition
and transparency. Then, the
people could pick and choose
what kind of coverage is best
for their family. The gov-
ernment should not dictate
what’s best [for each family]
in terms of health insurance.”
Barton said he is hope-
ful that in the next session
of Congress, the Republicans
can take the senate to fix
some of these problems.
“You’ll see a lot of things
happen, maybe even a bal-
anced budget,” he said with
a smile.
While on break, Barton
visited the border and held
town hall meetings in several
areas, though Crowley was
not one of them.
“I make it to Crowley a
couple times a year,” Barton
said, referring to an April vis-
it with the local Lions Club.
“It’s a very good area for me
politically.”

COMMUNITY CALENDAR
A key element of physical
well-being for older Ameri-
cans is regular exercise, but
don't forget to work on your
mental acuity, says the Asso-
ciation of Mature American
Citizens. It's not enough to
take your morning or evening
constitutional, you've got to
exercise your brain as well.
Consider a brain training
regimen consisting of mem-
ory exercises such as com-
pleting the crossword puzzle
in your morning newspaper
and remembering the lyr-
ics of those golden oldies
you enjoyed in your younger
days. Combine that with the
task of looking up a new word
in the dictionary each day,
learning what it means and
then using it as often as you
can. And, says AMAC, play
mind games such as chess or
you can try tackling a jig saw
puzzle. Such activities are
challenging and provide ex-
ercise for those gray cells.
Diet is important, too.
Foods such as eggs, fish and,
whether you like it or not,
broccoli and Brussels sprouts
help increase the production
of Acetylcholine in the brain.
It's a neurotransmitter that
helps improve the thought
process.
Empty nester season
Your son or daughter got
married this summer or may-
be your kids are newly en-
sconced in their college dorm
rooms and now you are feeling
the void. It can be a depressing
moment in your life for some
moms and dads, but for others
it's a guilty, but liberating ex-
perience, says AMAC.
Either way, you will need to
adjust to a new lifestyle. But,
as Bill Cosby once put it: "Hu-
man beings are the only crea-
tures on earth that allow their
children to come back home."
So, use the extra time and
space you've gained wisely,
notes AMAC. Use the time to
travel, if you will, but make
sure you've left the kids with
a set of keys so they'll have
someplace to stay if they come
back for a visit while you are
gone. And, use their old rooms
for new purposes such as a
studio or an office but provide
space for a bed or sofa bed as
well as closet space because
they are not gone for good.
Flu prevention
The peak season for the flu
is the dead of winter, but the
illness can strike at any time
between autumn and spring,
according AMAC. That's why
the Centers for Disease Con-
trol recommends getting your
flu shots as early as October.
It's particularly important
for older people to take precau-
tions. The CDC says that the
older you are the greater the
risk of complications resulting
from the flu. The agency says:
"It's estimated that 90 percent
of seasonal flu-related deaths
and more than 60 percent of
seasonal flu-related hospital-
izations in the United States
each year occur in people 65
years and older. This is because
human immune defenses be-
come weaker with age."
So, check with your doc-
tor or local pharmacy to find
out when this year's flu shots
will be available in your area
and book an appointment as
early as possible.
