The United States Achievement
Academy announced today that
Ranee' Flowers has been named a
1985 United States National Award
winner in History & Government.
This award is a prestigious honor very
few students can ever hope to attain. In
fact, the Academy recognizes less than
10% of all American high school
students.
Ranee' Flowers, who attends
Springfield High School was nominated
for this National A.ward by Ken Ourso,
Civics and Geography teacher and
football coach at the school.
A picture and biography of Ranee'
will appear in the United States
Achievement Academy Official
Yearbook, published nationally.
The Academy selects USAA winners
upon the exclusive recommendation of
teachers, coaches, counselors or other
school sponsors and upon the
Standards of Selection set forth by the
Academy. The criteria for selection are
a student's academic performance,
interest and aptitude, leadership
qualities, responsibility, enthusiasm,
motivation to learn and improve,
citizenship, attitude and cooperative
spirit,
Ranee' Flowers is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. James R. Rowers. The
grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. J.W.
Martin of Springfield, and Mrs. Vida
Lokey and the late Mr. E.L. Flowers of
Homnoke, Arkansas.

by putting one cigarette in each ear and making sure not to light them.
Henry Jefferson, what is this about you looking for mules and plows. Have
you really turned to farming? That's better than young Marshall Muse Jr.,
who has been training all summer for a career as a professional bicycle rider.
Hey Ken Quigley, can I borrow your bicycle for the big Cug Pack 100
Bicycle Rodeo Saturday, August 3 at 9:45 near the Rotary Hut? All [ need is
a wagon to pull behind me, for my tail. How does that sound Dave
Opdenhoff and Mike Jenkins? How about it cubs?
I notice my sheriff has a new Hobie Cat. ls it to be the flagship of the new
flotilla? (Especially since Admiral Archie Bonner reportedly sailed off to join
the pirates).
A pretty girl with curls tossed a note in my cage just now. Wait a minute
and rll claw it open. Hmmm. It reads: "Hardy's patched hat hides Hardy's'
patch." (I dunno?)
I do know that ole Ace Donnie got himself a real tan in Florida (Word is that
when a certain lady finds out, Donnie's hide's next in line).
His personal counselor, Joey, is reportedly in line for a Livingston Parish
Police Jury citation for his slefless assistance in reaming out an Albany area
ditches. (That's volunteerism four-wheeler style, eh?).
M.D. Stratton Kearns is a generous physician who is constantly giving away
to his patients free samples and such. Sunday he got carried away. He gave
away his nurse, the former "Miss" Becky. (Congratulations).
Twelve-year-old Mike Bugg was cooking up such a storm on main street
using some recipes sent by his grandmother that I thought they were going to
rename Pretty Paulette's place the Chinese Country Cupboard (pass the soy
sauce, and a fork, no sticks).
Paul Pevey is helping out the Ponchatoula Lions Club by putting a used
eyeglass collection station outside his popular care. Anyone wanting to help
fellow humans see might check their drawers for old eyeglasses (If the Lions
started a rumor that old unused .eyeglasses stored in dresser drawers are
known to eat socks it might help) and pitch them into the buckets at Pauls
Care, Bohnings, Central Progressive Bank, Ponchatoula Auction Company,
the post office, Guaranty Bank, TG&Y, The Ponchatoula Times, and
everywhere where people care.
News Flash: my swamp cousins down Manchac way insist Teddy Kraft
drank a Coke, nothing else, and left the fishing grounds to putter in his
garden Monday. (Wanna bet Patsy's tinkering with his feed?)
I understand Stanley Cowen had to brace all four sides of the Blue Room
with stout timbers and had to tie down the roof like he had solid Information a
Hurricane Patsy was heading straight for his structures - all this by way of
preparing for the quarter century (I love to say it like that) reunion of the Class
of 1960. And still the building looked like the bellows of an accordian
Saturday night when the partying reached fever pitch (Imagine Eddie
Layrisson, Valley Kraft, Herself, Carl Cleveland and, well you get the
picture...).
The wild, whacky, and sometimes wonderful PEB (Pan, Eddie and Bear)
Club is sponsoring a Second Annual Bicycle Ride to Manchac, starting at my
cage August 25. A five dollar entry fee gets you a free meal, a band (?) and
the feeling of satisfaction that comes from knowing your money is going to the
Tangipahoa Association of Retarded Citizens (I better hitch up my tail wagon
for this one).
Thanks to My President, Mrs. Jeanne Zaleske of the Chamber of
Commerce for her kind comments concerning some observations made here
last week about supporting our downtown merchants, especially during the
highway construction. I told her 1 would remind everybody that the parking
spaces next to the railroad tracks are nearer to shops in the Ponchatoula Mall
than most modern mall parking lots are to their stores; so don't let the
highway construction throw you, ok?
Love Ya Ponchatoulat
