Kansas man to stnd
trial in Barton County
assault case
LAMAR, Mo. — A 20-year-
old man was ordered to
stand trial this week on
charges that he broke into a
home in Barton County and
assaulted an occupant with
a pool cue.
Associate Judge James
Nichols decided at the con-
clusion of a preliminary
hearing Tuesday in Barton
County Circuit Court that
Gavin G. Gilmore, of River-
ton, Kansas, should stand
trial on charges of first-de-
gree assault, first-degree
burglary and armed crimi-
nal action.
A probable-cause affida-
vit filed in the case alleges
that on Feb. 14, 2021, the
defendant kicked in the
back door of a residence on
Northeast 80th Road in Bar-
ton County and attacked an
occupant identified only as
“I. Collins” with a pool cue.
The document states that
the victim suffered a skull
fracture, brain bleed and
broken nose and that pieces
of the broken and bloodied
pool cue were recovered at
the scene.
The judge set May 19 for
Gilmore’s initial appear-
ance in a trial division of

Lamar woman to stand
trial in stabbing
LAMAR, Mo. — A Barton
County judge has ordered a
47-year-old woman to stand
trial trial on a charge that
he stabbed a man in the
neck a year ago in Lamar.
Associate Judge James
Nichols decided at a pre-
liminary hearing Tuesday
in Barton County Circuit
Court that there was proba-
ble cause for Rosie K. Pitts
to stand trial on a charge
of first-degree assault. The
judge set her initial appear-
ance in a trial division of
the court on May 19.
The charge stems from an
incident May 15, 2021, at an
address on College Street in
Lamar.
Officers responding to a
report of a stabbing found

Peonies, procrastination: Back story of a grad speech Write us

I
n the coming weeks,
hundreds of high school
graduates will walk
across stages to accept
diplomas. As proud family
members watch, graduates
will accept the proverbial
sheepskins, switch the
tassel and smile for the
cameras.
Meanwhile, those in the
audience will squirm in
their seats — striving not
to feel uncomfortable in
stifling gymnasiums and
auditoriums. I know this
because I have been on all
sides of the commencement
aisles, so to speak, as a
proud grad, an onlooker and
a keynote speaker.
When asked to speak at
graduation for my high
school alma mater many
years ago, I was honored,
nervous and worried. Viv-
idly recalling the heat of
my high school gym when
packed with wall-to-wall
bodies, I knew that listening
politely to a commencement
speaker was akin to an exer-
cise in withstanding torture.
So I endeavored to keep
my speech short, sweet and
to the point. I knew many of
the grads that year, and was
honestly proud of each and
every one, but I also knew
it was a day of celebration.
And fanning oneself while
sweating profusely does
not usually
evoke joy and
smiles.
My parents,
I believe, were
as proud as
any at the
knowledge
SAMANTHA that I was the
commence-
PERRY ment speaker.
My mother

my attire – a

paired with a creme blouse.
Normally, I wouldn’t men-
tion my ensemble, but it’s
important to note I was
wearing layers and long
sleeves in an extremely hot
gymnasium. This knowl-
edge worried me in the days
leading up to the big event.
“I’m going to melt,” I re-
call telling the husband the
night before graduation.
“I’m going to faint from heat
exhaustion on stage, in front
of hundreds.”
“Don’t lock your knees or
you will faint,” he replied.
I was confused, and
pressed for an explanation.
He explained that locking
one’s knees while standing
can cause fainting, and then
went on to list examples
of people he knew who’d
dropped to the ground after
standing for an extended
length of time. Great. Some-
thing else to worry about.
Then, in the tradition of
husbands everywhere, he
added the final nail to my
stress coffin with a simple
question: “Have you even
finished your speech?”
The answer was no. But it
was only because I was wait-
ing for inspiration. A light-
ning bolt of creativity that
would elevate my speech to
prominence to influence the
graduates and audience to
forget the heat, the humid-
ity and the crowds and be
inspired to leave the gym-
nasium intent on greatness
obtained via the path of
making the world and our
communities a better place.
So, less than 12 hours
before the big speech, I
sat down at the computer
and began compiling my
thoughts.
I finished around 5 a.m.
After less than three hours
of sleep, I awoke to begin
preparations for D-day. Fin-
ishing the speech in the ear-
ly morning hours — during
the height of sleep depri-
vation — I knew I needed a
proofreader and editor. With
no time to lose I drove to my
parents’ house.
Walking in the front
door I handed the pages to
Dad, asking him to make
sure it was inspiring — or,
at least, coherent, with no
major grammatical errors.
As Dad headed into his
office, Mom ushered me
into the kitchen, intent that
I “have a good breakfast”
with such a big day before
me. I wasn’t opposed to
the meal since it included
Mom’s famously delicious
butter gravy and biscuits.
Midway through break-
fast, however, I had to ask
for a tissue. My nose had
started to run and I began
having difficulty breathing.
Suddenly, Mom and I looked
at each other, then, in uni-
son, at the centerpiece on
the kitchen table.
“Peonies!” we yelped. I
jumped away from the table
while Mom grabbed the vase
and moved it to another
room. My horrible allergy
had kept the offending flow-
ers in the yard for decades
but, because I no longer
lived at home, my parents
had brought a vase of the
fragrant blooms inside.
Sniffling, with Mom pat-
ting my back for comfort,
Dad walked in to the kitch-
en, handed me the pages,
and announced, “You’re
good. Only one mistake, and
I fixed it.”
Less than two hours later
I sat on the stage at my old
high school, waiting for my
time at the lectern. My eyes
were red from lack of sleep,
I still couldn’t breathe and I
had an unnatural fear that
my knees were going to lock

Ryan Palmer shoots 62, joins lead at low-scoring Byron Nelson

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
McKINNEY, Texas —
Jordan Spieth thought the
course for his hometown
Byron Nelson would play
more difficult after yielding
more birdies in its debut
than any other tournament
on the PGA Tour last sea-
son.
The three-time major win-
ner says he couldn’t have
been more wrong, and is
frankly surprised over how
little he thinks was done the
first two days to make TPC
Craig Ranch a stiffer test.
Ryan Palmer, one of
the Dallas-area players in
the shadow of Spieth and
Masters champion Scottie
Scheffler, shot a 10-under
62 on Friday and was tied
at 15 under with Sebastián
Muñoz and 40-year-old tour
rookie David Skinns.
Muñoz, a Colombian who
lives in the Dallas area and
went to college at North
Texas, was even through 13
holes coming off his second
60 of the season — a first
on the PGA Tour — before
birdies on three of four
holes for a 69. Skinns shot
63.
Justin Lower, another
older tour rookie at 33, was
alone in fourth, a shot be-
hind the leaders after a 66.
“I mean, a 60 yesterday
and a lot of 8s (under) and
7s all over the board,” said
Spieth, who shot 65 and was
three shots off the lead in a
group that includes defend-
ing champion K.H. Lee.
“It’s just, a lot of tees are
up, it was very surprising,”
Spieth said. “I think they
were looking at the week-
end as a lot less wind and
so they used more of the
easier pins the first two
days because I can only
name one or two pins on
this golf course that were
not the easiest two locations
that are on the greens. I’m a
Ryan Palmer cracks a smile after chipping to the ninth hole during the second round of the AT&T Byron Nelson golf
tournament on Friday in McKinney, Texas.
little surprised at how, on a
not-so-difficult golf course
they have also set it up a lit-
tle easier for us, too.”
The Nelson was the only
2020-21 tournament with
more than 2,000 birdies
(2,007). There were 38 eagles
in the first round Thursday,
the most for a single round
this season.
Charl Schwartzel had one
of the Friday eagles in a
round of 65 that put him at
13 under. The 2011 Masters
winner drove into a green-
side bunker on the 316-yard,
par-4 14th and holed out
from there.
The top-ranked Scheffler,
who came in with four wins
in six individual events
capped by the Masters
below par Friday. It was the
easiest hole on the course.
The Tom Weiskopf-de-
signed course also has wide
fairways and large greens.
“Some familiarity to me
with some of the courses
I played back in South
Africa,” said Schwartzel,
who tied for third at 21 un-
der last year. “I don’t feel
claustrophobic off the tee.
It gives me a bit of space,
and once I can get it in play,
iron play is not much of a
problem. So just really com-
fortable.”
Skinns, an Englishman
with no top-25 finishes in
20 PGA Tour appearances
spread out over nearly a
decade, had five consecutive
birdies starting on the par-3
seventh in his career-best
round.
Lower hasn’t finished
higher than tied for 15th

paired with Dylan Wu to tie

Anderson lifts Cougars past Eagles LEAGUE ‘Back when I was

FROM STAFF REPORTS
sports@joplinglobe.com
MILLER, Mo. — The mo-
ment wasn’t too big for the
freshman.
With a chance to win the
game, Josh Anderson rose
to the occasion.
The second baseman col-
lected a walk-off double to
send fourth-seeded College
Heights Christian past
fifth-seeded Jasper 8-7 in
nine innings in the Class 2
District 12 quarterfinals on
Friday afternoon at Miller
baseball field.
With the triumph, the
Cougars (6-12) advanced to
play top-seeded Marion C.
Early at 4 p.m. Monday in
the district semifinals.
The game was a wild one
to put it simply. College
Heights drew first blood
with a run in the fourth
before Jasper knotted the
score at 1-1 in the top of the
fifth.
However, the Cougars
regained the lead and ex-
tended that margin to 3-1
with another run in the
home half of the sixth.
The Eagles plated two runs
across in the seventh to tie
the game and force extra
innings.
Jasper scored four runs
to take a 7-3 advantage in

the eighth, but College
Heights responded right
back with four runs of its
own in the bottom half.
Smoke Ezell fired a score-
less top of the ninth to get
the Cougars back in the
dugout. Then in the bottom
half of the frame, Kelton
Welch led off with a free
pass.
The sophomore promptly
stole second and advanced
to third after Caleb Evans
grounded out to shortstop.
Welch’s walk wound up
setting the stage for Ander-
son’s heroics later in the
inning.
Starter Ben Thomas was
solid for College Heights.
He tossed six innings and
limited Jasper to one run
on four hits while striking
out seven batters and walk-
ing one.
Nicholas Brueggemann
allowed six runs (two
earned) over the next two
innings in relief for the
Cougars.
In total, College Heights
tallied eight hits in the
contest. Anderson’s big hit
capped a 2 for 4 day at the
dish, while Evans added a
pair of hits and drove in a
run.

Joplin coach Josh
Thompson said Talbot is
part of the first graduating
senior class he has seen
through all four years.
“This is a special group
to me and first group I’ve
got to start with at the

said. “It’s really exciting
to see her go on to the next
level. She is going to be
local still and somebody
our high school girls can
watch over the next couple

Thompson said Crowder
is getting a tenacious play-
er.
“She plays with a lot
of intensity, chip on her
shoulder,” Thompson said.
“She’s a player a lot of oth-
er teams are intimidated
by, especially once we hit

have.”
As for Talbot’s time as

much damage on the score-
board against Jefferson
starter Tanner Perry, who
had a stellar outing of his
own as he surrendered just
three earned runs and eight
hits while striking out sev-
en in 7 2/3 innings of work.
“He was good against
us in the regular season
and he was good today,”
Lallemand said of Perry. “I
mean, that’s one of those
games where neither pitch-
er deserved to lose. It was
fight to fight, pitch to pitch.
He did his job, but we just
had some key hits in situa-
tions.”
The first timely hit came
in the bottom of the second
when Landrey Wilkerson
followed up a two-out sin-
gle by Jackson Cobb with
a single of his own. Cobb
scored on the play when an
errant throw to second base
skipped its way into shallow
right field.
The Roughriders (49-9)
took a 2-0 lead in the sixth
on an RBI single to left field
by Peyton Holt with two
outs in the frame. The play
scored Clayton Gray, who
opened the inning with a
leadoff walk.
Crowder ended up plating
all four of its runs with two
outs. The final occasion
came in the eighth when
Josh Patrick belted an RBI
triple to right field and then
scored on the same play on
a Jefferson throwing error
to put the Roughriders up
4-0.
“Obviously we’re going
to green light Patty,” Lalle-
mand said. “He’s probably
the Region Player of the
Year in my opinion. We’re
green lighting him in that
situation, he buries one in
the gap and we score from
first with a really good run-
ner.
“In that game, you’ve got
to take your chances. It’s
not about putting up big
innings, but it’s about sep-
arating yourselves with a
run or two here and there.
Any time you can get a
three-run lead or more, it’s
absolutely huge in playoff
baseball. ... Again, not to be
cliche about it, but you have
to win with two outs. We did
that today.”
Albritton hit a solo home
run in the top of the ninth
to bring the game to its
eventual final score. He
finished with a pair of hits
to pace the Vikings at the
plate.
Houston King, Patrick
and Holt led the Crowder of-
fense with two hits apiece.
Reliver Jace Presley came
on for the Roughriders in
the eighth an surrendered
one earned run on one hit
in 1 1/3 innings.
Crowder will take on Jef-
ferson, which picked up a
5-2 win over Mineral Area
on Friday night in an elimi-
nation game, in the champi-
onship series of the region-
al tournament on Saturday.
The Roughriders will need
just one win to claim the
title while the Vikings will
need two.
The first game of the
championship series is slat-
ed for noon at Joe Becker
Stadium. If necessary, a
second game would follow
at approximately 3 p.m.
“We’re in good shape as
far as arms and bodies,”
Lallemand said. “We put

some nice plays defensively
and we’re right where we
need to be. But you can’t

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLIFTON, N.J. — The

PGA back at Southern Hills as
Mickelson skips title defense
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The anticipation had
been building the last few
weeks for the PGA Cham-
pionship, just like it was
for the Masters. and just
like the last major, the hype
was more about who played
than who had a chance to
win.
Tiger Woods not only
played Augusta National,
he made the cut.
Phil Mickelson won’t
even make it to the first tee
at Southern Hills.
Six days before the open-
ing round on the classic
course in Tulsa, Oklahoma,
Mickelson decided not to
defend his title and extend
his three-month hiatus
from golf.
And to think it was just
one year ago when Mickel-
son celebrated one of the
most stunning feats in 161
years of the majors. He
won the PGA Champion-
ship at Kiawah Island at
age 50 to become golf’s old-
est major champion.
The last PGA champion
who didn’t defend was
Woods in 2008 as he recov-
ered from reconstructive
surgery on his left knee.
Before that it was Ben Ho-
gan in 1949, who was nearly
killed some four months
earlier when a bus hit his
car in west Texas.
Mickelson’s injuries were
more self-inflicted. He kept
everyone guessing when
he signed up for the PGA
Championship on April
25, even if it was a matter
of procedure. His manag-
er said Lefty was merely
keeping his options open,
and then he shut them on
Friday.
“I personally think it’s
an unbelievable mental
challenge to come back
and play after what he’s
put himself through. I
don’t think it’s as easy as
just getting back on the
bike and arriving at a golf
tournament and playing,
said six-time major cham-
pion and CBS analyst Nick
Faldo.
Mickelson is sure to be a
topic one way or another.
Alan Shipnuck’s unautho-
rized biography on Mick-
elson is to be released on
Tuesday.
His public image took a
beating in February when
Shipnuck published an ex-
cerpt of his book in which
Mickelson outlined his
involvement with a Sau-
di-funded rival league.
He was dismissive

said.

pen,” Sagstrom said. “A lot
they set it up and all that. So
my best today was 2 under,
so I was really pleased.”
The 27-year-old Thomp-
son has won 11 LPGA titles,
including a major, but she
has not won on tour since
the ShopRite Classic in New
Jersey three years ago.
She was not happy being
asked about the drought.
“The talent out here is
tough to win,” she said. “All
I can do is control my emo-
tions and how much hard
work I put in, and I know
put into it, so if it doesn’t
happen, doesn’t happen. It’s
not the end of my life.”

the cut in three of seven
events, said she tends to

rights record, saying it was
worth getting involved if it
meant having leverage to
change how the PGA Tour
operates. He even said he
recruited three other play-
ers to pay lawyers to write
the new league’s operating
agreement.
Top sponsors dropped
him, Mickelson released a
statement that read more
like an explanation than
an apology, and he said he
“desperately” needed time
away.
Now it’s a matter of when
he returns. His absence
figures to be glaring, one of
several subplots to a major
that is sure to provide in-
trigue even before the first
shot is struck.
Woods hasn’t declared
for certain that he will play
another major, though he
was in Tulsa last week to
play — and walk — a prac-
tice round, and it would be
a surprise if he didn’t play.
Woods won the PGA Cham-
pionship at Southern Hills
the last time it was there in
2007.
It’s not exactly the same
course. Gil Hanse and Jim
Wagner finished a resto-
ration project at Southern
Hills geared toward making
the course a modern test
without losing the charm of
its original Perry Maxwell
design.
Along with bringing back

the 10th and 17th fairways,
the edges of the greens now

putting surfaces instead of
toward the center, putting

“It’s exciting to see that
my game has been trend-
ing, and just overall I’m
just looking forward to the
weekend and hopefully I
can keep producing the
same results,” said Ewing,
who has won twice on tour.
Sanna Nuutinen, a
31-year-old Finn playing her
first season on the LPGA
Tour, had a 68 and was alone
in fifth at 135.
Carlota Ciganda, Paula
Reto and Megan Khang,
who was a shot behind
Sagstrom after the opening
round, were tied at 136.
Nasa Hataoka, who had
an opening round 65, had
a 73 and was in a big group
at 6-under, a shot ahead of
two-time defending cham-
pion and No. 1 ranked Jin
Young Ko of South Korea,
who had in another large
group at 5-under after a sec-
ond-round 70.
Anna Davis, the 16-year-
old who won the recent
Augusta National Women’s
Amateur, made her second
straight cut playing on a
sponsor’s exemption. She
was at 140 after two straight
70s.
Eighty players in the
field of 144 made the cut
at 1-under. Among those
missing it were Marina
Alex, the New Jersey
native who won at Palos
Verdes last month, Sol-
heim Cup captain Stacy
Lewis and Leona Maguire
of Ireland, who won this
year at the LPGA Drive On
Championship.
for so long that it’s easy to
overlook the strongest field
of the four majors and who
might best have a chance of
hoisting that 27-pound Wa-
namaker Trophy.
That starts with a pair of
Texans who head to the oth-
er side of the Red River to
chase different versions of
the Grand Slam.
Masters champion Scottie
Scheffler has a long way
to go, and while he rarely
thinks about anything be-
yond the next shot, he likely
is aware only three players
in the last 20 years have won
the first two majors of the
year.
Even so, he has everyone’s
attention with his four big
titles in the last four months
that have taken him to No. 1
in the world.
“He’s setting the bar pret-
ty high right now and he’s
kind of the guy to chase for
all of us,” Will Zalatoris
said. “What he’s doing is
borderline Tigeresque. It’s
pretty cool to see.”
Jordan Spieth is chasing
the career Grand Slam.
This is his sixth shot at the
Wanamaker Trophy since
he picked up the third leg at
the 2017 British Open, and
it might be his best chance.
His swing is getting closer
to where he can trust it, and
his confidence was boosted
by his playoff win at Hilton
Head a month ago.
Spieth and Justin Thomas
stopped by Southern Hills
at the start of the week.
Spieth last played it in 2009,
when he lost in large play-
off for the final four spots of
match play in the U.S. Ama-
teur. He shot 75. He was 16.
And so much has
changed, especially with
Southern Hills.

Sacred currents

Busy summer planned for Missouri’s Current River

I
’m always surprised to hear from
another Missourian that he or
she has not been on the Current
River.
The Current has been called the fin-
est Class I float stream in the nation
by no less an expert than Tim Palmer,
who may have been on more Ameri-
can rivers, and who certainly knows
more about them, than just about any
person alive.
And it’s right in our backyard, a
little over three hours from Joplin.
In other words, there are no excus-
es for not going. Imagine living three
hours from the Grand Canyon or Yel-
lowstone and never making it there.
Some of this is the changing cur-
rents, of course. A generation is
growing up without the outdoors.
It’s not just kids, either, but their
parents too. According to a 2019
study by the Outdoor Foundation, the
philanthropic arm of the Outdoor
Industry Association, fewer than 20%
of Americans engaged in outside rec-
reation at least once a week, and they
went on 1 billion fewer outdoor out-
ings than they did even a decade ago.
Earlier generations considered the
Current River sacred. Dan Saults,
who worked for the Missouri Depart-
ment of Conservation, wrote many
years ago in Ozarks Watch magazine
that Missourians everywhere made
the sign of the cross every time some-
one would mention the Current.
Thomas Hart Benton thought
enough of the Current to paint it a
few times, most famously, in “Cave
Spring” in 1963, one
year before the Current
and its main tributary,
the Jack’s Fork, became
the nation’s first fed-
erally protected river
system.
If you are one of
ANDY those who has never
OSTMEYER been on it, this summer
is your chance. There
are numerous rang-
Globe columnist er-guided floats and
paddling clinics sched-
uled, and a variety of other events to
introduce you to the Current.
GUIDED FLOATS
There will be three ranger-led
floats from Akers to Pulltite, a dis-
tance of just under 10 miles, on three
Sundays this summer: June 26, July
24 and Aug. 21.
These will take you past, and even
into, Cave Spring.
There also will be three guided
floats from Pulltite to Round Spring,
also about 10 miles, that will take you
past Pulltite Spring, which is, for my
money, one of the prettiest springs in
the Ozarks. They are on Sundays too:
June 12, July 10 and Aug. 7.
Registration is required, and floats
are limited to 20 participants who
will need to provide their own water-
craft and life jackets. Shuttle is pro-
vided. All floats start at 10 a.m. and
will take about six hours.
Preregistration is required by call-
ing 573-858-3397.
PADDLING CLINICS
There are also are seven paddling
clinics that will include shorter
floats. They also are all on Sundays:
June 5 and 19, July 3, 17 and 24, and
Aug. 14 and 28.
You can learn the basics of pad-
dling from American Canoe Associ-
ation-certified instructors and then
enjoy a guided float on the Current
River from Current River State Park
to Round Spring, which is about 4
miles. This program is a partnership
with Missouri State Parks and the
Ozark Riverways Foundation. Pad-
dles, kayaks and shuttle are provid-
ed. Floaters must bring a PFD.
All clinics start at 10 a.m.
Preregistration is required by call-
ing 573-858-3397.
There are a number of other activ-
ities and events at the Riverways in
what promises to be a busy summer:
FLY-FISHING CLINICS
WHEN: 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., June 16,
July 21, Aug. 11 and Sept. 8.
Although not native to the Ozarks,
trout are stocked in the spring-fed
river.
The upper Current from Montauk
State Park to Cedar Grove is rated a
blue-ribbon trout stream by the Mis-
souri Department of Conservation.
The rest of the Current is rated a
white-ribbon trout stream, with dif-
ferent rules and limits.
Join rangers as they discuss fly-ty-
ing and fishing.
Topics will include flies and the
insects they are created to emulate,
casting, tactics, gear and regula-
tions. The afternoon portion of the
workshop will include personal
instruction while fishing the upper
Current River. There will be optional
afternoon fishing at Baptist access
with self-shuttle. Limited to 10 partic-
ipants.
Preregistration is required by call-
ing 573-858-3397.
RIVER’S EDGE HIKE
WHEN: 10 a.m. Saturday, June 11.
WHERE: Big Spring campground.
DETAILS: This will be a 3-mile hike
exploring the natural and cultural
landscape along the lower river.
NIGHT SKY EVENT
WHEN: 8:30 to 10 p.m. Friday, June 24.
WHERE: Alley Mill campground.
DETAILS: There will be a rare plane-
tary alignment of the five innermost
planets in the night sky during the
viewing event.
MUSIC AT THE MILL
WHEN: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday, July
2.
WHERE: Alley Spring campground.
DETAILS: Celebrate the upcoming
Independence Day with mountain

CASSVILLE, Mo. — The
Missouri Department of Con-

native manager of its trout
hatchery at Roaring River State
Park.
Brad Farwell began his job
May 1. He replaces Paul Spur-

servation. COURTESY | MISSOURI DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION for 32 years.
Brad began working at the
hatchery part time when he
was 15 years old, and continued
working there while attending
College of the Ozarks and Mis-
sissippi State University.
He then went to work at MDC’s
Shepherd of the Hills Hatchery
in Branson as a resource assis-
tant and resource technician be-
fore returning to Roaring River
in 2011 as the assistant manager.
“It’s a very rare opportunity
to be able to land your dream
job in your home town,” Far-
well said in a statement re-
leased by MDC. “I went into a
professional field of work that
is very niche. There are not a
lot of opportunities across the
country to be a hatchery man-
ager and being able to work in
the community you grew up in
is an awesome opportunity. I am
excited to work with everyone
in the area, many of whom I
went to school with.”
The hatchery produces ap-
proximately 600,000 trout annu-
ally that are stocked in Roaring
River, as well as other areas
around the state.
Roaring River, 7 miles south
of Cassville, has been the most
visited state park in Missouri
the past two years, drawing
more than 1.9 million visitors
in 2021.
The hatchery and the river
are fed by Roaring River spring,
one of the largest springs in the
western Ozarks.

Advances shifting boundary of life for premature babies

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. —

looked at nearly 11,000 such
HBCU medical schools to tackle disparities UPDATE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A new initiative aimed
at increasing the number
of Black Americans reg-
istered as organ donors
and combating disparities
among transplant recip-
ients was announced re-
cently by a coalition that
includes the four medical
schools at the nation’s
historically Black colleges
and universities.
The collaboration
follows a National Acad-
emies of Sciences, En-
gineering and Medicine
report, “Realizing the
Promise of Equity in the
Organ Transplantation
System,” that found sig-
nificant disparities in the
nation’s organ transplant
system. It was released
earlier this year and com-
missioned by Congress,
which wanted to examine
equity within the donor
organ procurement, allo-
cation and distribution
system.
The initiative — which
was created by the Con-
sortium of HBCU Medical
Schools, the Organ Dona-
tion Advocacy Group and
Association of Organ Pro-
curement Organizations
— plans to create new op-
portunities for Black med-
ical and nursing students
to shadow organ procure-
ment organizations and
transplant centers and col-
laborate with partner HB-
CUs that offer programs
in nursing, public health,
public policy and health
care administration. The
initiative announcement
was shared with The Asso-
ciated Press first.
The HBCU consortium
behind the initiative
includes the Charles R.
Drew University of Med-
icine and Sciences in Los
Angeles, Howard Univer-
sity College of Medicine
in Washington, Meharry
Medical College in Nash-
ville, Tennessee, and the
Morehouse School of Med-
icine in Atlanta.
The initiative will have
health professionals
speaking to K-12 students
in Black communities
about the field and career
pathways. It will also
focus on community edu-
cation, including creating
accessible materials about
transplantation for dial-
ysis patients and hosting
health fairs and blood
drives.
Concerns about equita-
ble access to organ trans-
plants have existed for
decades in America. But
attention has increased

Those gains happened
gradually and quietly as

‘Impossible’ to ‘accurately and honestly’ tell journey of Black sisters in United States
Story worth reading
Shannen Dee Williams, associate professor of history at the University of Dayton, speaks to her students during a class, on April 21
in Dayton, Ohio.
Black Catholic nuns have
long been overlooked; book
to be published this month
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
E
ven as a young adult,
Shannen Dee Williams —
who grew up Black and
Catholic in Memphis,
Tennessee — knew of only one
Black nun, and a fake one at
that: Sister Mary Clarence, as
played by Whoopi Goldberg in
the comic film “Sister Act.”
After 14 years of research,
Williams, a history professor
at the University of Dayton,
arguably now knows more
about America’s Black nuns
than anyone in the world. Her
comprehensive and compelling
history of them, “Subversive
Habits,” will be published
Tuesday.
Williams found that many
Black nuns were modest about
their achievements and ret-
icent about sharing details
of bad experiences, such as
encountering racism and dis-
crimination. Some acknowl-
edged wrenching events only
after Williams confronted them
with details gleaned from other
sources.
“For me, it was about recog-
nizing the ways in which trau-
ma silences people in ways they
may not even be aware of,” she
said.
The story is told chronologi-
cally, yet always in the context
of a theme Williams outlines
in her preface: that the nearly
200-year history of these nuns
in the U.S. has been overlooked
or willfully suppressed by those
who resented or disrespected
them.
“For far too long, scholars
of the American, Catholic and
Black pasts have unconsciously
or consciously declared — by
virtue of misrepresentation,
marginalization and outright
erasure — that the history of
Black Catholic nuns does not
matter,” she writes, depicting
her book as proof that their his-
tory “has always mattered.”
Williams begins her narra-
tive in the pre-Civil War era
when some Black women, even
in slaveholding states, found
their way into Catholic sister-
hood. Some entered previously
whites-only orders, often in sub-
servient roles, while a few trail-
blazing women formed orders

for Black nuns in Baltimore and
New Orleans.
Even as the number of Amer-
ican nuns of all races shrinks
relentlessly, that Baltimore
order founded in 1829 remains
intact, continuing its mission
to educate Black youths. Some
current members of the Oblate
Sisters of Providence help run
Saint Frances Academy, a high
school serving low-income
Black neighborhoods.
Some of the most detailed
passages in “Subversive Hab-
its” recount the Jim Crow
era, extending from the 1870s
through the 1950s, when Black
nuns were not spared from the
segregation and discrimination
endured by many other African
Americans.
In the 1960s, Williams writes,
Black nuns were often discour-
aged or blocked by their orders
from engaging in the civil
rights struggle.
Yet one of them, Sister Mary
Antona Ebo, was on the front
lines of marchers who gathered
in Selma, Alabama, in 1965 in
support of Black voting rights
and in protest of the violence
of Bloody Sunday when white
state troopers brutally dis-
persed peaceful Black demon-
strators. An Associated Press

Beware — metallic OBITUARIES

John James Macaulay
MEMORIALS

dinosaurs are all John James Macaulay, 79, died on Saturday, May
7th, 2022 at his home, following a long illness. John
was born on November
2nd, 1942 in Los Angeles,

the rage in 2022

My husband’s shopping
list for the trip to the garden
nursery included the usual:
potting soil, a couple of to-
mato plants,
morning
glory seeds
and a hang-
ing basket
of blooming
geraniums.
“Oh, and if
they have any,

added.

flew over his
head before finally sinking
in their claws.
So I elaborated. “The best
backyards this season have
giant metal dinosaur sculp-
tures lurking around their
trees and flowerbeds.”
He shook his head on
the way out the door. “Not
happening. It’s bad enough
mowing around your col-
lection of Dust Bowl lawn
furniture.”
The popularity of back-
yard brontosauruses,
though, makes me realize
my mother was a trend-
setter with her overgrown
yard menagerie. Growing
up, it was impossible to
play badminton in our yard
without tripping over a con-
crete donkey pulling a cart
of petunias and leaping a
pair of ceramic painted la-
dybugs standing in a paint-
ed rubber tractor tire.

Local students named
to college’s dean’s list
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Cade
Carlson, of Joplin, and Al-
yssa Cooper, of Carthage,
were recently named to
Columbia College’s dean’s
list for the spring 2022 se-
mester.
To be named to the dean’s
list, a student must have

they belonged in a country
church pew, unlike the
naked concrete goose and
leering frog perched on a
lily pad. She penned these
yard critters with fences
fashioned from wagon
wheels and cobalt blue Milk

Eventually, oversized
wooden yard butts in pol-
ka-dot bloomers earned
prominent spots in a row
of purple irises flanking a
miniature windmill.
I’m well aware that I have
this genetic tendency for
yard tackiness. My kids and
spouse remind me often, as
does my long-legged iron
bird fashioned from an old
shovel and other rustic
tools. His pitchfork feet are
permanently planted beside
the house, though.
“That ugly thing needs
to go,” my spouse often re-
marks.
But we’re not budging. I
especially admire how cute
my yard pet looks late in the
summer when he’s wear-
ing a frilly coat of invasive
vines.

CA, to his parents: John
Stanley and Virginia Ad-
kins Macaulay. John had a
career with Safeway, Inc.,
initially supervising bread
plants in CA, followed by a
move to MO, where he
managed the Joplin Cook-
ie and Cracker plant until
his retirement. John met
the love of his life Sally,
shortly after his move to
Joplin, MO, in 1987. It was
here that they married and
made a life for themselves.
He had many varied inter-
ests and was the family
bedrock for all things;
from handyman services, to sound pragmatic advice
on everyday life. John was the husband, father,
friend, and neighbor you could always count on.
He is survived by his wife Sally and their children:
John Macaulay of Joplin, MO; Darrell Macaulay and
wife Kim of Fayetteville, AR; Jeff Kinney and partner
James of Seattle, WA. Grandchildren: Libby, Luke
and Bradley. Sister: Mary Schulke and husband Roger
of La Crescenta, CA; as well as nieces, nephews,
cousins and friends.
He was a long time member of Immanuel Lutheran
Church in Joplin, MO. A memorial will be held at the
church on May 28th at 11 AM. In lieu of flowers,
memorials can be made to Immanuel Lutheran
Church or a charity of your choice.
The family would like to thank Phoenix Hospice
Care for their services during this difficult time.
Our tears and broken hearts are a testament to a life
well lived and loved. He will be missed everyday.

Cookbook offers 125 recipes to make your palette happy
I usually leave reviewing
cookbooks to the talented
Lisa Brown, who has a
much more worldly palate
than I, but I have checked
out “READY, SET, COOK: HOW TO
MAKE GOOD FOOD WITH WHAT’S ON
HAND” at least once a month
since we added it to the
collection in December, so I
just had to share my enthu-
siasm for it.
DAWN PERRY, the creator of
this cookbook, is a genius.
Simple, delicious foods
that you can make with
items you have on hand. I
have found only one other
cookbook that I think ac-
complishes this well. I am
sure there are more, but
my pantry and refrigerator
staples are usually pretty
limited. I hate finding a new
recipe I want to try, but I
need to buy two new sauces
and five new ingredients,
all of which will sit in my
pantry or in my refrigerator
after I have made the new
dish and just take up space.
Not the case with “Ready,
Set, Cook.”

In part one, she talks
about where to start, what

These blooms — blue-eyed grass (left) and yellow star grass — may be small, but they
pack a big punch of color.
It’s the little things
SPEAKING
of gardens
Sandy Parrill
May is
all about
showtime
with its big
beautiful
blooms:
irises, peo-
nies, bright
rhododen-
drons, fat
snowballs and hydrangeas,
blowsy viburnums, dra-
matic clusters of wisteria
and festoons of roses along
the top of the stone wall.
It’s all about honeybees,
bumbles and butterflies;
about turtles and ground-
hogs and baby deer. So
much feast for the senses,
so much color and fra-
grance and birdsong and
sunshine and fresh new
life, sometimes so much
everything that I’m almost
too anxious to take it all in,
lest I miss something.
It is easy — with nose
deep in the candy fra-
grances of irises, eyes
tracking bright butterflies
and ears full of trilling
frogs and mockingbird
melodies — to be missing
the small things right un-
der my feet, sometimes the
most delicate and elusive
gems of all. It’s so easy to
forget to look down while
glamour and fancy dress
are claiming excited atten-
tion.
I have to be reminded
every spring of the mossy
path spangled with mi-
nuscule fallen stars from
deciduous holly blooms
overhead, dusting the tiny
spore capsules of the moss
like snow; of tiny bluets
in the lawn; or a bee, so
small as to be only visible
in its Lilliputian world by
the flash of sun on its iri-
descent wings as it seeks
pollen under the noses of
Brobdingnagian-size bees
and butterflies.
It lifts my heart to step
into filtered shade of our
woods garden — where
mere days ago, rue anem-
ones flirted with wild
crested irises and dogtooth
violets — to find blue-eyed
grass, the smallest mem-
ber of the iris family, gen-
tly waving in the breeze
above thick leaves and se-
cret flowers of wild ginger.
Blue-eyed grass (Sisy-
rinchium angustifolium)
is a New World native
perennial with exquisite,
blue, inch-wide, yel-
low-centered blooms atop
thin, irislike foliage. It’s
often mistaken for grassy
clumps when not in bloom.
The 6- to 12-inch foliage
grows from small iris-
like rhizomes, forming
dense clumps, flowers
rising on bracts above the
leaves. They open from
late morning until sunset
to preserve the precious
cargo of pollen and nectar
for day-flying pollinators,
and I often see them bent
to the ground by heavy,
pollen-seeking bumble-
bees. With a long bloom

Bridge Pointers
By Phillip Alder
If an opponent holds the last
outstanding trump and it is a
winner, usually it is right not to
lead the suit. Instead, it may be
best to try to score your re-
maining trumps with ruffs.
Against four spades, West led
the heart jack: queen, ace, two.
Back came the heart six: seven,
eight, king.
South seemed to have at least
10 certain tricks: six spades,
one heart, two diamonds and
one club. However, he had been
well trained in his formative
years. He always hunted for po-
tential snags. Here, only a 4-0
spade break, which will hap-
pen almost 10% of the time,
would present difficulties. Just
in case, declarer made the far-
sighted and necessary play at
trick three of ruffing dummy’s
heart four.
Next, South cashed the spade
ace, getting the bad news. Unde-
terred, declarer led a low club to
dummy’s queen, East winning
with the ace and returning the
spade jack. (If East ducks, dum-
my’s last heart is led.) South
won, played a club to the king,
ruffed a club in his hand,
cashed his remaining top
trump and banked the dia-
mond ace. Finally, he played a
diamond to the king and, at
trick 12, led dummy’s last
heart.
What could East do? If he
ruffed, declarer would have
sluffed his diamond loser. If
East discarded, South would
have ruffed, leaving West’s
good diamond jack and East’s
trump 10 to fall together on the
last trick.
This technique of scoring
low trumps by ruffing when an
opponent has a winning trump
is called elopement. The coup
en passant that South used to
score his last trump in this deal
is the simplest form of elope-
ment.

will offer insight into how others think and what
they can do. Choose your words wisely and offer
something hard to resist; you’ll gain support.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Do the work yourself to avoid disappointment.
A well-organized schedule will deter others from
interfering with your plans. Keep moving and
doing what you do best, and everything else will
fall into place.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
You’ll get plenty of attention if you let your
creative imagination take the reins. Keep your
plans simple and affordable, and everything will
unfold smoothly. Don’t dismiss an expert’s input.

someone in need. Look for a way to get things
done without getting into an emotional battle.
Listen to concerns and complaints and offer fair
solutions.

Pay attention to the people you care about most.
A kind gesture will pave the way to unexpected
support and hands-on help. Your actions will
significantly influence what transpires.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

make a personal decision. Romance will enrich
your life.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
An emotional matter will surface if you get

business.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)

you make a move or go along with a change
someone wants to make. Protect against loss.

dates and leave nothing to chance. Once you
know where you stand financially and legally,
you will recognize what you need to do.

situations, and you’ll come up with a great idea.
A change of pace, lifestyle or routine will help
