COMMENTARY: Saturday’s Child We Survived Both the Smoking Era and the Quitting

A story in USA Today last week began, “If New York Mayor Bloomberg has his way, it may be even harder to find a pack of cigarettes in New York City than an available cab.” A few days before the story came out, a group of us oldtimers, mostly ex-teachers, met to observe St. Patrick’s Day. (We are too old to “celebrate” anything; “observe” is the most we can muster.) Bloomberg would be proud of us: There wasn’t a cigarette, not even an ashtray, to be seen. But I can’t feel pious about this, for in our prime, in the mid-20th century, we would turn our offices and our homes blue with smoke without giving it much thought. It was in the days before Surgeon General C. Everett Koop said there might be some harm in doing so. We would have scoffed at the idea of the danger of secondhand smoke. Smoking was the healthy thing to do, we were told.

Deputy Rick Van Wyck, who said he has been working for the sheriff’s office for 11 years, said he has been interested in becoming a K-9 handler for several years. “I love dogs, and working with dogs,” Van Wyck said. “And catching the bad guy.” About a month ago, Murphy and Van Wyck got 13-month- old Axel, a purebred German shepherd. “The bond has to be just as important as the training,” Murphy said, adding that training, however, cannot always be positive. “The dog has to know who is the boss,” he said.

Thursday’s 2A Boys Soccer Women’s College Basketball Washington Gets Scare From Eastern Washington By Jayda Evans The Seattle Times The splotches of red T-shirts around Alaska Airlines Arena were the first clue Washington’s Women’s National Invitation Tournament opener was going to be odd. Fans of underdog Eastern Washington did their best to make their presence felt in the arena of their in-state rival, and the school from east of the mountains nearly took over the game, too. It took two overtimes for UW to win, 65-60. Sophomore point guard Jazmine Davis had the key play, sending a bounce pass inside to sophomore Aminah Wil- liams to make the score 63-60 with 23 seconds left in the extra period. After Eastern Washing- ton missed a three-pointer, Davis closed out the game with a pair of free throws in the final seconds.

2A Softball College Basketball Bearcats Fall in Rematch of State Title Game By The Chronicle TUMWATER — W.F. West's first Evergreen 2A Conference softball game of the season went a bit longer than expected here Friday night in a 5-4, eight- inning loss to defending league champion Tumwa- ter. "This game was about missed opportunities and being timid," Bearcat coach Mike Keen said. "But that just show that we are a young team and that will change." Marissa Reynolds was the big hitter for W.F. West with two RBIs in a 2 for 4 performance with a double. Chloe Lewis went 2 of 3 with two RBIs, and Kenna Tornow was 2 for 4. "This was their first league game and being young, it's expected that we aren't going to be great," George Frey / The Associated Press Keen said. "But we were on Wichita State players from left, Ron Baker, Ehimen Orukpe, Nick Wiggins and Chadrack Luile, celebrate on the sideline during their 73-55 victory over Pittsburgh in the verge of doing some the NCAA college basketball tournament Thursday, March 21, 2013, in Salt Lake City. great things and with time we will be able to follow through.
