Home bleachers at Pocahontas County High School, Dunmore
Pocahontas Hi;
Wants New Bleachers
By Jonathan Wright
Pocahontas County High
School (PCHS) football fans
whose vision Is obstructed be-
cause of the poor design of home
bleachers at the Dunmore
school's stadium are attempting
a solution to the problem,
"We have to do something to
help these spectators," PCHS
Athletic Boosters president Ker-
mit Friel said. "It's frustrating lor
them to pay $2 and $3 each
game and not be able to see
what's happening on the field.
They can't even see the band for-
mations during halfiime, since
the bleachers are so low. We
have loyal fans--they deserve
better."
The present home bleachers
were constructed around 1973
and seat approximately 520, The
Athletic Boosters are pushing for
a new 66-foot-long, 15-row sec-
tion of galvanized steel bleach-

ers--whose lowest row of seats,
seven feet high, would be slightly
higher than tile top row of the
present bleachers. It wotfld seat
614, Mr Friel said, and include
enough space to allow the band
to sit with the fans. "File group
now sits in a separate section of
wooden bleachers near the north
goal post.
The biggest hurdle for the new
project is the price tag: $40,000.
Approximately $10,000 has be, :n
donated by interested persons
and businesses so far, Mr Friel
said. "It's ve~¢ possible we will
not reach our goal by next Feb-
ruary or March. Sam Taylor's vo-
tech class [at PCHSI is planning
to help install the bleachers,
which will save us about $7,000,
but they would need to get
started by early spring. The
manufacturer takes 60 days tor
delivery, so we don't have a lot of
time to work with before reach-
ing the $40,000 mark."
Mr Friel added that should
the bleachers not be a possibility
for next year, the Boosters would
continue fund-raising for an al-
ternative target date of fall 1992.
"We feel this is an important
project," he said. "We're contact-
ing quite a few alumni, too. to
get donations. We welcome any
help people can give us."

Pumpkin pie would taste
pretty much like any cooked
squash if it weren't for all the
added spices. These spices, cin-
namon, cloves, and ginger --
marketed as pumpkin pie spice
-- add the real flavors to a favor-
ite Thanksgiving dessert.
True cinnamon, cirmamomum
zeylanictml (Lauraceae, the lau-
rel family) comes from the dried
inner bark of a tree originally
discovered along the Malabar
Coast in Sri I.~qnka (Ceylon). The
trees grow to about 30 or 40 feet
and have a scabby-like trunk
with strong branches which pro-
duce many young shoots. For
commercial cinnamon, the inner
bark of the young shoots ls
used. a cinnamon tree requires
only one per cent vegetable sub-
stance but they need pure sand,
a sheltered location, an evenly
warm temperature, and constant
rainfall for best growth.
The Dutch originally held a
monopoly on lhe trade z-ights of
cinnalnon froln the Malabar
Coast. It wasn't until 1776 that
cultivation was permitted. Now
cinnamon farms can be found in
other Eastern countries, the
West Indies, and South America.
This true cinnamon comes in
long. tightly curled sticks. The
shorter sticks which are scrolled
from each end inward with a flat
center are cassia, cinnamomum
cassia (lauraceae). The best of
this lesser form of cinnamon
comes from Saigon. These cinna-
mons create a thick sticky sub-
stance when added to liquids
and have a rather bitter after-
taste compared to tile very aro-
matic and warm, sweet flavors of
true cinnamon.
This herb is very good for the
stomach, stomach upsets and
disturbances, especially for relief
of intestinal gas, cramps, or to
deter nausea. Taken as a tea or
burnt as incense, cinnamon can
clear and focus the mind-im-
proving concentration.
Clove, caryophyllus aro-
m'alicus (myrataceae, myrtle
family) is an evergreen tree grow-
ing between 15 and 30 feet in
