SEATTLE – Normally, it would be the kind of notoriety a small town wants to avoid: A murderer rents a home on a quiet leafy street as his base of operation to knock off a former lover and pin the blame on her ex- husband. But that’s only if the story were true. In the case of “Killer Cuvee,” a new book by Steven Wells, it’s harmless fiction and Waitsburg is merely an edge-of-the-wine country backdrop to a larger plot that unfolds thrillingly in Walla Walla, Seattle and London. Wells, who lives...
DAYTON - The Day- ton soccer team took the field against Walla Walla Valley Academy Monday but couldn't gain their footing, falling 4-1 to the Knights. The loss to the Knights follows two losses against Trout Lake last weekend. In the first half of Mon- day's game, the cold, wet field slowed down the usual quick action between the teams. The Knights kept the pres- sure on the Bulldogs from early on, finally breaking through and scoring halfway through the first half. The Bulldogs fought back,...
WALLA WALLA - Waitsburg-Prescott failed by the narrowest possible margin to DeSales on Senior Night for the Irish. WP lost the 5-set heartbreaker last Tuesday, 16- 25, 25-12, 22-25, 25-20, 13-15. The Lady Cards overcame the Irish in an error- plagued set one by nine points. WP broke open a 10-9 lead with a 10-3 run built without the aid of a single ace or kill by either side. The Cards closed the set out with an ace however, when Krystal Harris' hard serve tripped the net, and fell to an e...
PRESCOTT - Dominating from the outset, the WP Tigers beat the Irrigon Knights, 5-1, at home last Friday. The Tigers Tuesday night beat Riverside Christian in Yakima, 3-0/ The team's victories give the Tigers a, 10-2-1, record for the season. "We controlled the ball from the start," assistant soccer coach Jay Potts said in a telephone interview. "It was our best passing performance of the year. We're getting better at that." Senior Lino Diaz was the first to score in the fourth minute of the game on an assist from senior Jesse Alb...
ASOTIN - Two big plays proved the difference in Waitsburg-Prescott's must- have victory at Asotin last Friday. The, 26-14, win nearly guarantees the Cardinals control of their own destiny in the chase for the Southeast 2B title as they go into their final regular season game this Friday against Tri-Cities Prep. After a first half defensive slog, the Cards posted the two, long-field scores in the span of just a minute-and- a-half late in the third quarter to put some distance between...
DAYTON - Coming off of two wins against Waitsburg-Prescott on Oct. 16 and DeSales on Oct. 18, the Dayton volleyball team was poised for attack on its senior night against the Walla Walla Valley Academy last Tuesday. However, the Bulldogs fell in a nail-biting finish after five sets against the WWVA Knights Tuesday. The game began by honoring Dayton seniors Jessica Tate and McKayla Bickelhaupt. The Bulldogs opened the first set keeping close to the Knights' scores. The score was close until the...
PENDLETON - Two WP cross country athletes came out on top last Saturday and placed first in a large meet in Pendleton, Ore. Both Seth Deal, a senior on the varsity men's team, and Emily Adams, an eighth grader on the middle school team, placed first in their respective races last Saturday at the Kyle Burnside Wildhorse Meet. "I was very proud of all my athletes, said WP coach Lanning. "You could see the determination and effort on all their faces as they came into the finish line chute." The...

DAYTON - Blue Mountain Counseling's newest Prevention Coordinator Laura Tolman is get- ting paid to work with kids and families, and for Tolman, nothing could be better. Tolman, who lives with her husband of 27 years in Waits- burg, has always worked with children. Her background lies primarily in volunteer work. "I'm new in a way (as a pre- vention coordinator)," Tolman said. "(But) I've always found myself working with kids." Tolman took on the position in early October to replace Peggy...
DAYTON - The Sixth Amendment guarantees an attorney for any defendant in need of one, but recent caseload concerns moved the Supreme Court to adopt new standards that will impose a cap on the number of cases attorneys can handle and could restrict private prac- tices for the public defenders the state has relied on. This change will impact local defenders. At the last Columbia County Commissioners meeting, public defenders C. Dale Slack, of Dayton, and Andrea Burkhart, of Walla Walla, discussed the new standards, called indigent defense...
WAITSBURG - The Waitsburg City Council last Wednesday night voted to raise a tax levied when property in the city is sold to raise about $10,000 to help operate the city pool. A public hearing was held last Wednesday be- fore the vote, but no citi- zens commented on the tax. The tax is real estate excise tax that is typically paid by the seller when property in Waitsburg is sold. The rate of the tax was previously a quarter of one percent, or $2,500 on a $100,000 home and is paid with the...

WAITSBURG - The most recent contract proposal the Waitsburg City Council took a look at last Wednesday reduces the amount the city is paying the Walla Walla County Sheriff's Office cur- rently by 36 percent and reduces services by 38 percent. Councilman KC Kuyken- dall told Sheriff John Turner last Wednesday that if the city of Waitsburg is already being patrolled in the deputies' daily beat, "I can't figure out for the life of me why we couldn't cut the contract." Kuykendall said for $125,000 a...

Last Saturday the cowboys were back, hosted by the Columbia County Shooting Association.

The association's Presi- dent Al Young has been im- mersed in gun culture for his entire life. "(I've) been shooting since...
