Lisa Greer, Adair County Clerk COLUMBIA, KY. – When Lindsey Wilson College students returned to the liberal arts college in August they were greeted with campus improvements. The water tower located behind Biggers Sports Center received a facelift and includes a fresh Lindsey Wilson College logo, and an alumni victory bell tower is under construction on the campus quad. The cosmetic overhaul on the water tower began in May. The recognizable landmark on the A.P. White campus was once nicknamed by students the “mashed potato tower” after the potato side dish that appears daily on the Roberta D. Cranmer Dining Center menu. The exterior has been power washed and sanded and painted twice. The finishing touch – a larger than life Lindsey Wilson College logo was completed at the end of the month. “The water tower hasn’t been painted in more than 15 years,” said LWC Vice President for Administration and Finance, Mark Coleman. “It’s one of the first things people notice on campus. A facelift was long overdue.” The original victory bell hung in the L.R. McDonald Administration Building until the early 1970s and was rung after each victory in basketball, the only sport at the time. The same historic bell will be relocated to a different home in the newly constructed bell tower on the campus quadrangle. “Students would race back to campus to be the first to ring the bell,” said Randy Burns, LWC Director of Alumni Relations. “We want the students to decide the new traditions for the victory bell. The alumni office and LWC administration will work with student government to make that happen.” LWC staff members are building the 30-foot-tall victory bell tower with assistance from Anthony Janes and Fabco Incorporated. The finished tower will include a replica of the crown atop the iconic John B. Begley Chapel and will be completed by homecoming weekend, Sept. 30-Oct.1. Money for the alumni victory bell tower was raised from donations by members of the Class of 2016 their parents and additional gifts from friends of the College. By Wes Feese Media Relations, Adair County Schools Five Adair County High School juniors recently took home a first place award at the Kentucky State Fair for their incredible restoration of a 1947 Farmall tractor. Sam Baker, Mason Carter, Preston Cundiff, Dylan Hancock, and Matthew McCarrol began work on the project almost a year ago, and continued their efforts even during summer break, finally finishing the job in July. It was a laborious undertaking, according to Hancock. “We had to sand off the old paint, take care of all the mechanical issues, because it had a busted head gasket and the starter needed to be repaired,” Hancock says. “We basically had to redo the entire electrical system. Then once we got it running, we put on two coats of primer and two coats of paint, then put the decals on.” The work paid off, as the boys won first place honors in the best Agriculture Mechanics Exhibit at the fair. By Wes Feese Media Relations, Adair County Schools It’s been more than six months since Adair County voted to go “wet” and end its long-standing prohibition of alcohol sales, but the debate raged on last week at Adair County High School in Andrew Reliford’s fourth period transitional math class—a senior-level course that incorporates math concepts into real-life situations. “The idea is to use statistical data to back up your arguments, not just your opinions,” Reliford explained before his class began. “The goal is to know how to form an argument that’s based on numbers and facts. You’re going to believe what you’re going to believe, but be able to back it up.” The students were allowed to pick which side they wanted to argue, and prepared for the debate with diligent research of Adair and surrounding counties’ demographics, poverty rates, employment numbers, and crime statistics. “They did a great job researching and getting ready for this,” Reliford said. “They need to know what they’re going to say but also have an idea about what the other side will say too so they can offer a rebuttal.” With Reliford and senior Michaela Walker serving as the debate’s moderators, the students’ arguments closely mirrored the actual wet-dry debate that swept the county several months ago, except with more facts and less name calling this time around. Trey Strange led off the proceedings for the “dry” side, offering drunk driving statistics and warning that teenagers will gain easier access to alcohol in a wet county. Jordan Lasley responded by referencing the statistics he researched, saying that drunk driving does not increase when counties go wet. On it went, back and forth between the seven “wet” advocates and four “dry”-siders. Austin Owens, on the wet side, argued that Danville’s increased tax revenue is an indication that Adair could similarly benefit from such a move. Dry countered that Danville is a bigger, wealthier town than Columbia and therefore is not comparable. Wet argued that good restaurants don’t locate in dry counties. Dry argued that good restaurants don’t locate in counties as small as Adair, regardless of being wet or dry. In the end, no winner or loser was declared, which was part of the point, according to Reliford. “You might not change anyone’s mind, but I want them to at least be able to intelligently defend their own views,” Reliford said. “I thought they did a good job. They took some of the math they’ve learned and did something different with it, which is what they’ll do in college and in their careers.” REPORT OF “MAN RUNNING AROUND OUTSIDE NAKED” LEADS TO TWO ARRESTS plus other activity by GPD8/30/2016 Running around naked in your front yard, is one sure fire way to get the attention of your neighbors.
