Item of Note
A few weeks ago Don James, the former head football coach at the
University of Washington was a guest speaker at North Mason High
School. He visited the area at the invitation of one of his former play-
ers: Bulldog head football coach Russ Vincent.
James is not only personable, he's also quite candid in his views on
sportsmanship and self-development. I liken his viewpoint to Lou
Holtz, the former Notre Dame football coach who's now trying to turn
around the South Carolina football program.
After Holtz watched his former team lose to Michigan recently be-
cause of cheap shot penalties and show-boating antics, I was remind-
ed of what Holtz told his team several years ago after performing on
the field like a bunch of prima donnas: "Act like you've been there
before." In other words, show a little class.
Most coaches will agree that participating in sports builds charac-
ter. But an individual's character in athletics should not include ar-
rogance or Dennis Rodman-type behavior.
An excellent example of class can be seen on any given night at
Safeco Field. Alex Rodriguez personifies the image of class.
Recently, the star shortstop spoke at the Results 2000 seminar at
Key Arena in Seattle. He was one of several guest speakers at the
seminar, hosted by motivational speaker Anthony Robbins.
A_n obvious star on the field, A-Rod also demonstrates he's a star
won't be$:?
off the field as well. "I know there will be a time when I y-
ing baseball for a living," he said. "That's why I'm going to sch to
get my degree. I will start my entrepreneurial life when I retire from
baseball."
The 24-year-old Seattle Mariner spoke humbly about his goals.
"Reaching your potential is what life's all about. A personal goal of
mine is to win the World Series, and hopefully I can do that in a Seat-
tle Mariner uniform." All 10,000 fans heartily applauded.
Rodriguez has also written a book called "Hit a Grand Slam," in
which he shares his life lessons and motivates young readers to im-
prove in education and citizenship. He also visits grade schools and
holds assemblies to promote his Grand Slam for Kids program, which
encourages youngsters to work hard and stay in school.
"Nothing comes easy to me," said A-Rod. "I work hard and take
pride in my work ethic. If I'm ever going to fail, it's not because of a
shortage of work."
For any youngster just starting out in sports, the image to emulate
would be. that of Alex Rodriguez.

Ina Culberson is "in training"
to become president of the Allyn
Community Association for the
year 2000. (That means she's ser-

She was born and raised in Ox-

children "with a loving Christian
mother and father," she said. The
family moved to Washington
State, with Ina celebrating her
thirteenth birthday in Tacoma.
She's still close to her siblings, all
of whom live in western Washing-

accessories, dinner bells, camp
kits, and various other products:

make "everything else," Ina said.
"It's a blacksmith shop that uses
techniques as old as time itself,"
yet creates useful, modern prod-

Tribute to
Mrs. Nanstad
Indian soda. We all ate and drank
more than our quota. A Story our
chief did tell, with lively imagina-

skill fashioned their very lifestyle,
for their preservation.
Gifts we gave to one another. A
dream catcher drawing I gave to
my Indian brother. Casey gave a
dugout canoe, filled with fresh
caught fish and woven blankets.
A drawing that spoke of an earli-

weaving, and fishing nets. Now
this term has ended and we will

We had a potlatch feast and

near the water tall and green the
grass grows. I dry the grass, and
then I weave, blankets and dress-
