State Collaborates to Establish Coal County Emergency Operations Center The Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry, working in conjunction with Coal County commissioners and other state officials, has transferred property to Coal County that will now serve as the Coal County Emergency Operations Center. State Agriculture Secretary Jim Reese, Sen. Josh Brecheen, Rep. Donnie Condit, representatives of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma and other state and local officials were on hand for the official transfer of the building that took place Wednesday, January 7. The 5,000-square-foot building, which is located on six-plus acres of land just west of Tupelo, was originally obtained as an emergency management response facility for the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry (ODAFF) to respond to both animal health and wildland fire emergencies. Due to the 2009-2010 economic downturn, ODAFF did not fully develop the facility, which led to an opportunity for Coal County. Coal County commis- “Sometimes, somebody comes into your life and they’re just so special you don’t know what to do for them,” Gray said at the unveiling. “We concluded that what you do is do something for somebody else that would mean something to Imogene.” So that’s what happened.

Allen Leaird was credited as the ‘driving force’ behind the lengthy process that ultimately resulted in the facility transfer to Coal County. Reese said when Allen Leaird came to his office to talk to him about the facility, he saw an opportunity for a productive use of the building. Sen. Brecheen and Rep. Condit, as well as Rep. Paul Roan (who preceded Condit), were interested in the facility being utilized, he said, “And that’s the whole goal…the state wants to make the best use of all its facilities.” “It is always beneficial to Oklahoma citizens when a facility can be used in the most efficient manner,” Reese stated. “Coal County will now have a fully functional Emergency Operations Center to better assist everyone in the area.” Sen. Brecheen echoed Reese’s sentiments. “I am always glad to have facilities in my district that will contribute to the health and well-being of my constituents. This facility will be a great resource for Coal County and the surrounding areas.” “This is a great example of how the federal level is working with the state level,” Condit stated. “I hate to see a facility like this just sitting and nothing happening. I can definitely see where Emergency Management will have a use for it. This center will help us to be prepared for any emergency situation that may arise.” Coal County Commissioners Johnny D. Ward, Michael Hensley and Brock Jones said the facility will be a large asset to Coal County and they’re happy to have it. They expressed their appreciation to Secretary Reese and other parties involved. Coal County Emergency Management Director Aaron Blue looks forward to having the facility as a resource. “A large part of emergency management is being prepared for the unexpected and this facility will allow us to do just that,” he said. Blue presented an overview of Coal County Task Force operations, why the task force was formed several years ago, the extensive preparedness training that members go through, and the various types of rescue operations for which they are qualified.

The inscription reads: Created in January of 2015, the Pillar Award is a $25,000 endowment that honors the service and commitment of Imogene Mowdy to the Coalgate community. She moved to Coalgate when she was 14 years old. For nearly 30 years she has been and continues to be a “pillar” of the Coalgate Law Office at 28 N. Main Street. She serves as a board member of the Coalgate Hospital and is very active in the Coalgate First United Methodist Church. Whether it was the tragic loss of her husband, being diagnosed with cancer, or a later battle with painful arthritis – she never complains and remains a positive example to all of us as to how we should strive to live our lives. At present, a $1,000 scholarship will be awarded annually to a Coalgate senior who articulates the importance of what a “pillar” in the community means to a young person. The scholarship award process starts with the submittal of a 500 word essay. Applicants are encouraged to focus their essay on overcoming adversity, the importance of a positive attitude, and the importance of character, hard work, family, and spirituality – all attributes of Imogene Mowdy. The essays are confidentially evaluated and rated by a committee consisting of the pastor of the First United Methodist Church in Coalgate, a designee of the Coalgate Hospital Board, and a member designated by the Coal County Bar Association. After evaluation of the essays, the committee will make a final determination based on student merit and need.

Coal County DHS Staff Voters should apply now for absentee ballots Voters in Coal County who want to have absentee ballots mailed to them for the February 10 School Board Election and/or the Coalgate City Council Election should apply now, County Election Board Secretary Vicky Salmon said today. Although the County Election Board can accept applications for absentee ballots until 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, February 4, Salmon urges voters who want to vote by absentee ballot to apply early. The following offices are at stake in the election: Coalgate City Council Ward 4: Candidates - Muriel Parker, Scott Wright. Coalgate School Board Office 5: Candidates - Tommie Gay Barnett Stanberry and J.W. Barnes. Absentee ballot application forms are available at the Coal County Election Board office at 18 N. Michigan Street in Coalgate (behind the post office). The forms also can be downloaded and printed at www. elections.ok.gov. At least two mail transactions must be made, Salmon said. “The County Election Board must mail the ballots to the voter and the voter must return the voted ballots by mail.” Ballots must be in the hands of the Election Board by 7:00 p.m. on Election Day in order to be counted. Any registered voter may vote by absentee ballot in any election in which he/she is eligible to vote. However, a voter must be registered and reside at an address within the geographical boundaries of a school district or a municipality to be eligible to vote in school district or municipal elections. It is not necessary to give a reason or excuse for voting absentee. “While anyone can vote absentee without giving a reason, the law still provides several excuses, and Hearrell Family Reunion Held The annual Hearrell Reunion was held at the Coalgate Park Building July 13, 2014, with lots of good food to eat and visiting. It was hot out so the swimming pool was well used. Drawings were held with lots of winners. This year Janice Meiners of King City CA traveled the farthest. The oldest was Sadie Hearrell (94) and the youngest was Sadie Kilene Richardson, 8 weeks old. Sadie is Sadie’s youngest great granddaughter and her namesake. Ninety-four old Sadie still has a perfect attendance. We will see you’ll July 12, 2015, so plan to come.

By stating one of the following reasons on their applications, these voters can activate some special conditions that make it easier for them to use absentee ballots. The reasons are: Registered voters who are physically incapacitated and voters who care for physically incapacitated persons who cannot be left unattended may vote absentee. They may apply only by mail, by fax, or by telegraph. Registered voters who are confined to nursing homes in the county may vote absentee. An absentee voting board actually goes to the nursing home a few days before the election, sets up a small polling place and allows these persons to vote under circumstances similar to those at a regular precinct polling place. They may apply only by mail, by fax, or by e-mail. Military personnel, residents of Coal County living overseas and the spouses and dependents of each group are eligible to receive absentee ballots. These voters may apply only by mail, fax, or by e-mail. Military personnel should contact the Voting Service Officers in their units for application forms and additional information or visit the Federal Voting Assistance Program website at www.fvap.gov/oklahoma for more information and instructions. Residents of Oklahoma living overseas can obtain the same materials from any United States military installation and from United States Embassies and Consulates as well as on the FVAP website. Online Voter Tool Available for Voters The State of Oklahoma website (www.elections. ok.gov) now provides a helpful “Online Voter Tool” for voters.

The 103-year-old, yes, you saw that right, has a perpetual smile and a history of stories to share. As a current resident of Ruth Wilson Hurley Manor in Coalgate, Lee contributes her longevity to strong work ethic. “I spent my early life picking cotton and gathering corn,” reflects the centenarian. As one of nine siblings, Lee said they all had to pull their weight to contribute to the family. Lee visited with Keith Dobbs recently. Dobbs is the president and CEO of the Coalition of Advocates for Responsible Eldercare, a non-profit organization that represents seniors, frail, and disabled residents across Oklahoma. His visit to Ruth Wilson Hurley Manor, in tandem with the Oklahoma Association of Health Care Providers (OAHCP), was approximately the 275th facility he’s toured during the past 16 months. KEITH DOBBS, president and CEO of CARE Oklahoma, (right) poses with Ruth Wilson Hurley manor resident Bethel Lee (Left) during his statewide tour of Oklahoma’s 300+ long term care facilities. Dobbs visits every long term care facility in Oklahoma each year and makes it a point to visit with residents and staff. (Courtesy of Atoka County Times) “It is so rewarding to meet the residents and their caregivers,” stated Dobbs. “They have so much to share. They’ve lived things that younger generations take for granted, such as electricity, cars, and the invention of the television.” Dobbs shared that there’s a wealth of information that the seniors have that we need to document, including some of their secret family recipes. “I don’t cook much anymore, but I could make some pretty good meals in my day,” she shared. “In addition to her stories, what I enjoyed most about my time with Bethel was her great smile and beautiful blue eyes,” he concluded. “She’s a sweetheart!” Emerson Elementary Honor Rolls Coalgate Emerson Elementary has released its honor rolls for the 2014-2015 first semester.

Coalgate took down the visiting Antlers Bearcats 6243 on Tuesday evening at Coalgate High School. The 19-point win was followed by a 69-61 loss Friday to the visiting Konawa Tigers. There will be more chances to put wins on the board this week. However, Coach Lance Weeks’ Wildcats will have to step up and play solid basketball in the week-long Roff Invitational Basketball Tournament. Coalgate was set to open play against the New Lima Falcons at 5:20 p.m. Monday in the first round of the tournament. CHS entered the week with a record of 4-8. The Wildcats will face Konawa or Tupelo in the second round later in the week. The first-round losers are set to meet at 5:20 p.m. on Thursday in the consolation semi-finals. The first-round winners will play at 5:20 p.m. Friday in the semi-finals. As for last week’s play, Coalgate got off to a nice start with the 62-43 triumph over the Antlers Bearcats. The Wildcats erased an 11-9 first quarter deficit with a 16-10 surge in the second quarter. The effort lifted CHS into a 25-21 halftime lead. After the break, Coalgate outscored the Bearcats 1911 to extend the advantage to 44-32. The Wildcats then sealed the deal with an 18-11 surge in the fourth quarter. The effort locked up the 6243 win for the Wildcats. Dakota Powell fueled the victory with a 19-point scoring performance. Brandon Ragland added 12 points to the winning total. Nate Hardy just missed double figures with a total of 9 points. Rob Penney and Bear Francis followed with 7 points. Cody Franks and Brandon Courson rounded out the scoring with 4 points each. On Friday, Coalgate was hoping for another strong start. However, the highflying Konawa Tigers erupted for a 27-13 lead in the first quarter. That 14-point deficit would spell doom for the Wildcats. CHS outscored the visitors 16-14 in the second period. The Wildcats went to the break down by 12 points at 41-29. Coalgate dominated the third quarter by outscoring Konawa 20-9. The scoring parade brought the Wildcats to within a single point at 50-49. The game was wide open when the final quarter began. Coalgate’s hopes of a continued comeback were dashed when Konawa won the period 19-12. The Tigers used the late push to pull away to an 8-point win at 6961. Coalgate scoring was a very balanced attack. Dakota Powell and Brandon Courson scored 12 points each. Brandon Ragland and Nate Hardy added 10 points each. C.J. Bills just missed double figures with 9 points. Rob Penney followed with 5 points and Nathaniel Daniel provided the final 3. --AT A GLANCE Jan. 13 @ Coalgate Coalgate 62, Antlers 43 Antlers- 11 - 10 - 11 - 11 (43) Coalgate - 9 - 16 - 19 - 18 (62) Coalgate scoring: Dakota Powell 19, Brandon Ragland 12, Nate Hardy 9, Rob Penney 7, Bear Francis 7, Cody Franks 4 and Brandon Courson 4. --Jan. 16 @ Coalgate Konawa 69, Coalgate 61 Coalgate- 13 - 16 - 20 - 12 - (61) Konawa - 27 - 14 - 9 - 19 (69) Coalgate scoring: Dakota Powell 12, Brandon Courson 12, Brandon Ragland 10, Nate Hardy 10, C.J.

PAGE B-2—COALGATE RECORD REGISTER—JANUARY 21, 2015 Bill Cummings Coal County US Marshal By Robert “Tot” Calvert Over 200 miles to ride, one way, as I was told. Practically 100 years of history, beginning in the teens, it was reported that there were horses stolen from Coal County. Bill Cummings, the young US Marshal, was notified. Bill and his fellow officers soon got on the trail and began looking for clues. The trail led them out of Coal County, across hills and streams into Arkansas. One of the stolen horses was pulling a buggy. This soon caught the young marshal’s eye because he would see a blunt mark near the buggy trail. He spoke up and said, “Well, boys, when we get to the end of the trail we will find that the thief that is driving the buggy has a wooden leg.” The officers would stop for time to time in a settlement and ask if anyone had seen anybody with a certain description of horses. Sure enough they had, and this helped in the trailing. Bill was riding his black pacer, Prince. His comrades had to be riding a fast pace to keep up. This was for a reason to not let the trail get cold. On the second day, they were well over into Arkansas. Bill was calling the shots and went over the plains Coalgate Assembly of God Tuesday Evenings 7:00 pm Hurts, Hang-Ups, & Habits Christian 12 Step Program Pastors Billy & Linda Wilson For information call Pastor Billy at 580-927-5588 or 580-927-3030 Pastors Billy and Linda are licensed Counselors and experienced 12 step leaders.

After riding two days and part of one night, they rode into Hope, Arkansas. The officers soon located the stolen remuda. They kept hidden until the thieves came to untie the horses from the picket line. Bill displayed his poker face and told the lawbreakers they were under arrest. I am sure the pace was slower coming back to Coalgate. The miles were taking its toll on the horses. Bill gave the orders that he and the other officers would sleep in shifts coming back to Coalgate. After talking to Hugh Graham, Sr., twenty years ago, he remembered part of that historical ride and told me that the marshal and his fellow officers were gone over a week. Young Bill Cummings from Lehigh, Oklahoma, first city marshal, to US Marshal, to deputy sheriff. He was elected as sheriff in 1928. After two terms, he retired. His wife, Eddie Calvert Cummings, and one child moved to his ranch near Roundhill and spent the next few years where they would farm and raise Hereford cattle. Bill told me several stories while he was an officer of Coal County. He was appointed US Marshal by the President of the United States and this could have been Woodrow Wilson. When I visit Uncle Bill’s grave and see the star on his tombstone, I think of the other two: the one that shined on him and the other officers while they were on that long ride and the other one that his cows carried on their hip as a brand for years. The area where the Atoka Lake is now was free range for years.

He said he heard it was online and wanted to know if Clerk Loudermilk had seen it or heard anything from the auditors. Clerk Loudermilk said she was not aware that it was online but that she will look and see, but she has not heard anything from the auditors. Brock Jones said he had calls over the holidays from citizens regarding EMS not being able to find their homes. Hensley asked Jones if he had spoken with Berney Blue on this subject. Jones said he has not spoken with Berney. Ward and Hensley both agreed to have Berney contacted regarding this issue. After New Business was discussed the board members walked across the street to inspect the jail. The only noted deficiencies were: chipped paint on the walls and floors, and the window on the maximum security cell was cracked and needing replaced.

I GIFT of the MONTH PAGE B-4—COALGATE RECORD REGISTER—JANUARY 21, 2015 Coal County Sheriff’s Report Attempted Arson A Tupelo man accused of setting a bale of hay on fire on New Year’s Eve was charged January 6 with felony attempted arson in the third degree. Investigator Jarel Bailey said he was dispatched at approximately 11:00 p.m. New Year’s Eve to a residence on Old Owl Road where a man reported he witnessed Robert Henry Blanchard, 40, set a bale of his hay on fire. The man said he was inside his house when he saw headlights pull into his driveway and recognized the pickup as belonging to Blanchard. He said Blanchard exited the pickup and set the hay on fire. When he exited his house, Blanchard got in the pickup and drove away at a high rate of speed. The one bale of hay that was burning was among a stack of several hundred bales, Bailey said. The man was able to extinguish the fire. Bailey, Undersheriff Bobby Hatton and deputy Jeff Wortman drove to Blanchard’s residence, but Blanchard would not answer the door. When Hatton called Blanchard on his cell phone, he agreed to let the officers in. During questioning, Blanchard said he had been to church that evening, but nowhere else. When Bailey told him they had witnesses to attest to his setting the hay on fire, Blanchard stated that if his pickup was at the victim’s residence, he wasn’t the one J & N Construction 17350 CR 3700 Coalgate, OK Free Estimates Sidewalks Custom Steel Buildings Metal Roofs James Troyer Phone: 580-428-3159 Cell: 580-258-0911 3.5” x 2.5” | Maximum Font Size: 30 pt Use that 401(k) you left behind to move ahead.

He stated that a juvenile sometimes drives the pickup, but when the officers told him they would go question the juvenile, Blanchard said the boy had not been in the truck. He then became “very evasive” in his answers, Bailey said, and would not speak further. Hatton obtained a written statement from the victim confirming that Blanchard did set the fire. Blanchard was told a warrant would be sought for his arrest. Blanchard was arrested January 7 and made his initial court appearance on January 12. He pleaded not guilty to the charge and is scheduled for a January 22 preliminary hearing conference. He was released from custody on $10,000 bond. Attempted arson in the third degree is punishable by a fine up to $10,000 and/or imprisonment up to 15 years.

Assault and battery on police officers and EMT; malicious injury to property Edgar Arnold Buchanan, 28, Coalgate, was charged January 8 with four counts of felony battery/assault and battery on police officer, assault and/or battery on emergency medical technician, and misdemeanor malicious injury to property. Coalgate Chief of Police Kenny Pebworth and Undersheriff Bobby Hatton responded to a domestic disturbance at Buchanan’s residence the morning of January 6. Buchanan was arrested and transported to the Coal County jail. A probable cause affidavit filed by Undersheriff Bobby Hatton states that upon arrival at the jail, Buchanan became agitated, uncooperative and combative. He is charged with assaulting deputy Nic Davis, Chief Hatton states in his affidavit that when Buchanan complained that he couldn’t breathe, EMS was called to the jail to check his wellbeing. Then, while waiting on EMS, Buchanan began banging his head on the floor, which caused abrasions to his forehead area. EMS advised that Buchanan should be taken to the hospital. Upon arrival at the hospital and Buchanan was being unloaded from the ambulance, he managed to unbuckle one of the straps restraining him to the cot. He swung his arms, causing the strap buckle to strike EMT Audrey Gage on the nose. Buchanan was treated, released and returned to jail where he was placed in the drunk tank. Since he was still unruly, uncooperative, and combative, the decision was made to transport him to Pontotoc County for his safety as well as the safety of the other inmates. He had threatened to cause “all kinds of trouble” while he was in jail, Hatton said. He managed to slip his restraints and used them to bust the glass out of the drunk tank door. For that action, he was charged with misdemeanor malicious injury to property.

Hatton pushed Buchanan’s head up and away from Wortman’s arm. Buchanan was brought under control by hobbling his legs and was transported to the Pontotoc County Justice Center without further incident. During his initial court appearance on January 8 without an attorney, the Court entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf. He has requested a court-appointed attorney and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing conference on January 22. He is being held on $100,000 bond.

Tupelo used a zone defense while Roff played the more aggressive man with lots of pressure applied on THS. Even so, Tupelo shot only four free throws while Roff was awarded 20 charity shots.

While it has been a gradual process, the recent games reflect positive progress. “We are getting better offensively,” said Coach Scott Roe. “I can see the girls improving in this area. But what I really like is the fact that we are getting more balanced in our scoring. We are seeing different players scoring for us. You can’t have just one player do all the scoring. We are sharing that and it will give us more chances to be consistent in team scoring.” Last Tuesday, Coalgate hosted the Antlers Lady Bearcats in basketball action at Coalgate High School. The Lady Wildcats fell behind 10-5 in the first quarter and trailed 24-17 at the half. Antlers came out in the third quarter and built up a 37-24 cushion. The Lady Bearcats then sealed the victory by outscoring the home team 1510 in the fourth quarter. The effort snagged a 52-34 win for Antlers. In the loss, Coalgate had seven different girls generate points. Taylor Hall erupted Scam Alert Scam artists are constantly coming up with plots to get our money. Here are some current scams that have been reported to the Coal County Sheriff’s Office. Tech Support Scam Scam artists are now using the phone to try to break into your computer. They call, claiming to be computer techs associated with wellknown companies like Microsoft. They say that they’ve detected viruses or other malware on your computer to trick you into giving them remote access or paying for software you don’t need. These scammers take advantage of your reasonable concerns about viruses and other threats. They know that computer users have heard time and again that it’s important to install security software. But the purpose behind their elaborate scheme isn’t to protect your computer; it’s to make money. Scammers have been peddling bogus security software for years. They set up fake websites, offer free “security” scans, and send alarming messages to try to convince you that your computer is infected. Then, they try to sell you software to fix the problem. At best, the software is worthless or available elsewhere for free. At worst, it could be malware — software designed to give criminals access to your computer and your personal information. The latest version of the scam begins with a phone call. Scammers can get your name and other basic information from public directories. They might even guess what computer software you’re using. Once they have you on the phone, they often try to gain your trust by pretending to be associated with well-known companies or confusing you with a barrage of technical terms. They may ask you to go to your computer and perform a series of complex tasks. Sometimes, they target legitimate computer files and claim that they are viruses. Their tactics are designed to scare you into believing they can help fix your “problem.” If you get a call from someone who claims to be a tech support person, hang up and call the company yourself on a phone number you know to be genuine. More information on tech support scams is available at http://www. consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0346-tech-support-scams. Lotteries and Sweepstakes Scams If your caller ID shows area code 876, beware. The caller may tell you that you’ve won a lottery or other big prize. All you have to do is pay taxes or fees and the big jackpot is yours. Area code 876 sounds like a toll-free number – but it’s actually for Jamaica. If you call the number back, you will be billed at the international long distance rate, which is not cheap. According to the Federal Communications Commission, scammers can also make money by getting their victims to call them back, because they earn a fee for each call. Other prefixes that sound like domestic area codes are 649 (Turks and Caicos Islands), 809 (Dominican Republic) and 284 (British Virgin Islands). Regardless of the area code, do not send money to ANYONE who claims to have a prize for you. Odds are good that it’s a scam. Government Scams Some imposters pretend they’re with the government to scare you into sending money. They say you owe taxes or some other unpaid debt, and, hoping you’ll panic, warn that you’re about to be arrested if you don’t pay up. Before you can investigate, you’re told to put the money on a prepaid debit card and tell them the number — something no government agency would ask you to do. You really can’t rely on caller ID. Scammers know how to rig it to show you the wrong information (“spoofing”). Scammers might have personal information about you before they call, so don’t take that as a sign they’re the real thing. If you’re not sure whether you’re dealing with the government, look up the official number of the agency. That way you know who you’re talking to. The Federal Trade Commission website at www.ftc.gov has a wealth of information about scams. You can even sign up to receive e-mail scam alerts. The Grandparent Scam You’re a grandparent, and you get a phone call or an e-mail from someone who identifies himself as your grandson. “I’ve been arrested in Mexico (or some other country),” he says, “and need money wired quickly to pay my bail.” He begs you not to tell his parents because it will scare them. This is an example of what’s come to be known as “the grandparent scam”—yet another fraud that preys on the elderly, this time by taking advantage of their love and concern for their grandchildren. The grandparent scam has been around for a few years—the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) has been receiving reports about it since 2008. But the scam and scam artists have become more sophisticated. Thanks to the Internet and social networking sites, a criminal can sometimes uncover personal information about their targets, which makes the impersonations more believable. For example, the actual grandson may mention on his social networking site that he’s a photographer who often travels to Mexico. When contacting the grandparents, the phony grandson will say he’s calling from Mexico, where someone stole his camera equipment and passport. Sometimes, the “grandchild” call is followed by another criminal who claims to be a law enforcement or U.S. Embassy official. While this scam is commonly called the grandparent scam, criminals may also claim to be a family friend, niece, nephew, or another family member. for 14 points. The doubledigit showing was a career high for Hall. She is a good example of a more balanced scoring list. Other scoring for CHS included Karley Shores with 6 points and Jessie Sexton and Mallorie Humphreys with 4 points each. Three others scored 2 points each, including Shaylyn Coslow, Racheal Pebworth and Kaitlin Shockey. “We played pretty well that game,” said Coach Roe. “We just came up short in the scoring department. Our free throw shooting cost us. We were not able to take advantage of the (free throw) opportunities.” On Friday, Coalgate was back at home for another contest. The Konawa Lady Tigers invaded the gym and scratched out a 59-43 victory. The two teams were locked in a tight battle for the first three quarters. Konawa led 15-13 after a quarter, 30-25 at the half and 43-36 after three quarters. It was the fourth quarter when the game finally got away from Coalgate. The Lady Wildcats were outscored 16-7 down the stretch, which left them on the short end of a 59-43 final score. Shaylyn Coslow scored a team-best 13 points in a losing cause. Taylor Hall followed closely with 9 points.
