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. - Rick Stedman Grapeview elected preschool board The blended Grapeview pre- school (Independent Community plus Grapeview School District group) meets Tuesdays, Wednes- days and Thursdays.

We will print as many as possible. However, we will not print any such letters in the issue immediately prior to election day. For the Tuesday, November 2, general election, the last ballot- related letters we will print will be in the Thursday, October 21 is- sue (deadline: noon, Monday, Oc- tober 18).

Herald itighlights Ina Culberson is "in training" to become president of the Allyn Community Association for the year 2000. (That means she's ser- ving as vice president this year!) She was born and raised in Ox- ford, Nebraska, the oldest of eight 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- ton. "We are now 55 strong," she said of her family, "and get to- gether every Christmas at our house." New Arrivals Ina is owner and manager of Old Cedar Forge. "I do everything but the forging," she likes to say. Her husband Jerry is the black- smith for the business, making fireplace sets, candle holders, candle snuffers, towel bars, home accessories, dinner bells, camp kits, and various other products: 300 in all. He also can custom make "everything else," Ina said. "It's a blacksmith shop that uses techniques as old as time itself," yet creates useful, modern prod- ucts for today's homes. SHE AND JERRY built their "big, lovely home" on Cronquist Road in 1989. Ina loves garden- ing, photography, antiques, mak- ing scrap quilts and quillos (quilts that fold into pillows), decorating her home, going for walks, and, Ina Culberson Dakota Malcolm Crumpler was born on Wednesday, Au- gust 11, at 5:30 p.m. in Bremer- ton's Harrison Hospital to Mike and Debbie Crumpler of Belfair. His 15-year-old brother Jason Lewis and his maternal grand- mother Eileen Jacobsen of Taco- ma were also present for the birth. The 8-pound, 14.5-ounce, 21- inch boy's paternal grandparents are Ann and Gary Corbett, and Mac and Janice Crumpler, all of North Carolina. Baby and mother are doing very well. Thanks for We're Jammin' the coverage enrolled at Sand Hill. They just understand the importance and joy of helping struggling readers. At the end of last year, so many expressed their joy and sor- row to me. JOY over how fulfill- big, rewarding and fun it had been to work with the students, and SORROW that they would have to wait for three months to do it again! So, I say, "hats offf to the STARS volunteers, and many thanks to the Belfair Herald staff, who, over the years, has helped keep our need in the public eye. With increased enrollment this year, we have a greater need for tutors than ever before, so any in- terested readers could call me at (360) 275-6080.

Many of these people don't have children or grandchildren Tribute to Mrs. Nanstad Indian soda. We all ate and drank more than our quota. A Story our chief did tell, with lively imagina- tion, of a people, who with great 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- er people skillful in crafting, weaving, and fishing nets. Now this term has ended and we will miss our chief, Mrs. Nanstad, teacher and friend. Casey and Sarah Jones Belfair Editor, Belfair Herald." There was a teacher last term who cares a lot, and helped us learn. Her class is fun and she has a knack to make history more than a pain in the back. We had a potlatch feast and gave ourselves a name, Sweet Grass was the name I choose, near the water tall and green the grass grows. I dry the grass, and then I weave, blankets and dress- es and ropes, to wrap around my long black tresses. Casey chose Running Wolf for his name. For he loves to run like a wolf, swiftly along the wooded trails of fame. We feasted on venison, dried fish and jerky, and gulped down uuuuluu Editor, Belfair Herald: Jammin' Company would like to thank you for donating space in your newspaper to advertise the beginning of our company and the jar drive.
