Just Like My Dad
Tracy Wilson
1John took off his helmet, turnout gear, and boots in the truck room and hung the jacket on his assigned peg. Just above the peg was a handmade label that read, āFF#121 Wilson.ā John still felt a sudden surge of pride every time he looked at the label. His father would be proud too, he reminded himself. After 32 years and a couple million fires, his father still had the passion for it in his blood until the end.
2It was still an hour before dinner, so John washed up and settled down in the old worn chair beside the phone to do what he always did after returning from a fire call. He dialed each digit and then waited.
3"Hullo" a tiny voice finally answered. John was happy to hear the sound of the voice he had heard only in his head for the past two hours. "Daddy, have you been on a fire?" the inquisitive child asked.
4"As a matter of fact, I have son." John returned.
5"Wow Dad, I canāt wait until I get big, so I can fight fires too."
6"I know, Son."

In Georgeās Shoes
Natalie Stewart
1Owen kicked dirt beyond home plate, sending cloudy powder into the humid summer air. He scowled and pouted. He exhaled up at the sweat that trickled down his forehead as he hoisted the densely packed satchel from the ground. His baseball team, the Trail Blazers, had just won yet another series game; Owen, however, was feeling irritated.
2He observed his teammates surrounding George, who had driven in the winning run. George was the teamās finest hitter, and the other players cheered, clapped, and high-fived him. The victory elated them.
3Owen never got to participate as much as he wanted to. As the equipment boy, he carried the weighty gear, but he felt that no one appreciated him. No one ever gave Owen a high-five subsequent to a game, and the team never once raised him onto their shoulders.
4Owen speculated on the possibilities: What would it be like to come up to bat? To swing and bat the baseball above the outfield barrier? What would it be like to sprint around the bases with the ball in play like a motivating wind at your back?
5It must be wonderful, he thought, but heād probably never receive the opportunity to find out what life was like in Georgeās shoes.
6Owen stumbled into the dugout and plopped himself onto the bench. Coach Jones flipped papers on his clipboard while chewing his gum at a furious pace.
7āIs there anyone who canāt play in next weekās tournament?ā he asked.
8Georgeās hand took off in the air like a rocket. He explained that his sister, Susannah was graduating on Saturday, and he wouldnāt be able to attend the important game.
9The coach scribbled a note while simultaneously explaining that someone would have to replace George in the game. Coach scanned the roster, reading the playersā names.
10Pick me, thought Owen as he squeezed his eyes shut and wished. Give me a chance to fill Georgeās shoes. Coach Jones pointed at Owen, saying, āWhat do you reckon, slugger? Think you could fill Georgeās shoes?ā
11Owenās eyes grew massive as globes as he agreed and promised to make the team proud.
12For the remainder of the week, Owen counted down the days to the game, crossing off each day on the calendar with a careful crimson āX.ā His baseball uniform remained hanging on his closet door so he could glimpse it every morning, noon, and night. He even slept with the baseball cards of his favorite players under his pillow for extra luck.
13Finally, game day arrived. Owen sauntered up to the plateābat in handāand surveyed the pitcher. He told himself all of the things he had heard the teammates exclaim to each other: Keep your eye on the ball; Follow through on your swing.
14With a loud thwack, Owen hit the ball and sent it soaring into the outfield as high as a bird. As Owen raced around the bases, he witnessed the ball flying over the wallāa home run!
15As he rounded the corner to home plate, Owen beamed. As he entered the dugout, his teammates offered up their hands for high-fives and they encouraged him with the same heartening words he had listened to from afar. Now Owen understood exactly what it was like to be in Georgeās shoes.

Journal Entry of Jerome Dunkinā Duncan
Mary OāDell
Dear JD Journal,
I just figured out that life really is a journey. Lame, right? - but yesterday was the best day ever! I realized how far I have come, and how far I have to go. As far back as I can remember, I have always loved sports, especially basketball. Itās just me and Pops now, since Mom died when I was eleven. Six years have passed and I hate that my memories of her are fading. She was so beautiful, with an easy smile and a kind heart. She was always ready with a proverb or clever phrase.
Sometimes her voice still echoes in my mind: āJerome, the longest journey begins with a single step, so get moving-but remember to thank those who helped get you there.ā
I listen to more soothing words: āSon, help others, not just yourself -thatās why God put you on this earth.ā Back then her quotes and happy little sayings would drive me crazy, but now they bring me comfort and somehow make me sad, too.
Pops and I used to spend hours watching basketball. It was our sacred time together, cheering the spectacular feats of Shaq and Kobe, or chiding the referees for questionable calls against our team. Our excited discussions often edged toward debates arguing who is better or who is best between the latest top NBA or college stars. Sure, watching was great, but I yearned to wear a uniform and use some of those signature moves I saw on ESPN highlight reels. Although I was athletic by nature, I knew it would still take lots of practice to transform myself into the agile superstar I dreamed of becoming. After Mom was gone, the cheering stopped. Pops and I were wrapped up in our own individual worlds of pain and loss. It was hard without Mom. I could not make myself imagine going through life without her. I took no steps toward basketball. Then I met Coach Moses and Ms. Willow.
Now, donāt think I am exaggerating about yesterday. My ears are still ringing from the thunderous cheering of our Silver Fox fans. We closed our season with a two point defeat of our high school rivals, the Bulldogs. The game was a nail biter until the last minute. The sellout crowd was ecstatic and now I, Jerome Dunkin Duncan, am the hometown hero! The church parking lot was packed for the 5th Quarter Basketball Party, a local tradition. I was greeted like a king entering his majestic palace. Pops, Coach Moses, and Ms. Willow worked their way through the crowd.
āIām proud of you, son,ā beamed Pops.
āYou gave 110% out there,ā agreed Coach Moses.
Ms. Willow simply smiled, handed me a sealed envelope, and hugged me. Pops assured me he would record the local news coverage of my no-look passes, dunks, steals, and fall-away three pointers.
It had been a perfect evening. I was walking on air, but grew tired of the spotlight. I left the party and drove home. Pops would be in the den, probably asleep in his chair. I bolted upstairs, anxious to open the card from Ms. Willow AND check out my stellar performance. Then I flopped on the bed, and bent down to untie my size thirteens. I froze. I studied my shoes as if they just appeared on my feet. Pictures of shoes flashed in my thoughts. Suddenly, memories of my mother flooded my mind, her voice crowding out my former thoughts of glory and fame. Sure, I was successful, but I became acutely aware of the fact that I had help along the way. My steps had been guided by family and friends. I blinked the moisture from my eyes, grabbed the card and headed for the den. My abrupt entrance startled Pops almost as much as the bear hug he got from me.
āThanks for all youāve done for me. I love you,ā I stammered.
I opened the envelope and a gift card fell out for Athleteās Footgear. The handwritten words were simple and familiar: āThe longest journey begins with a single step. Whatās next? Love, Ms. Willow"
Although we seldom spoke about it, that first year without Mom was the year Coach Moses and Ms. Willow, stepped into our lives. They were both from our church. Ms. Willow paid for my first summer basketball camp and bought my shoes every season. Coach took me home from practice during those middle school years. Pops always loved me and supported me. It was getting late, but I had two more things to do.
Like I said, life really is a journey. Look out tomorrow, here I come!

Cherokee Indian Ancestry
US Dept. of the Interior
1 About 200 years ago the Cherokee Indians were one tribe, or "Indian Nation" that lived in the southeast part of what is now the United States. During the 1830's and 1840's, the period covered by the Indian Removal Act, (1) many Cherokees were moved west to a territory that is now the State of Oklahoma. A number remained in the southeast and gathered in North Carolina where they purchased land and continued to live. (2) Others went into the Appalachian Mountains to escape being moved west and many of their descendants may still live there now.
2 Today, individuals of Cherokee ancestry fall into the following categories:
(1) Living persons who were listed on the final rolls of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma (Dawes Commission Rolls) that were approved and descendants of these persons. These final rolls were established in 1907
(2) Individuals enrolled as members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians of North Carolina and descendants who are eligible for enrollment with the Band.
(3) Persons on the list of members identified by a resolution dated April 19, 1949, and certified by Superintendent of the Five Civilized Tribes Agency and their descendants who are eligible for enrollment with the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indian of Oklahoma.
(4) All other persons of Cherokee Indian ancestry.
Category 1
3 After about a half century of self-government, a law enacted in 1906 directed that final rolls be made and that each enrollee be given an allotment of land or paid cash in lieu of an allotment. The Cherokees formally organized in 1975 with the adoption of a new Constitution that superseded the 1839 Cherokee Nation Constitution. This new Constitution establishes a Cherokee Register for the inclusion of any Cherokee for membership purposes in the Cherokee Nation. Members must be citizens as proven by reference to the Dawes Commission Rolls. Included in this are the Delaware Cherokees of Article II of the Delaware Agreement dated May 8, 1867, and the Shawnee Cherokees of Article III of the Shawnee Agreement dated June 9, 1869, and/or their descendants.
4 P.L. 100-472, authorizes through a planning and negotiation process Indian Tribes to administer and manage programs, activities, function, and services previously managed by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Pursuant to P.L. 100-472 the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma has entered into a Self-governance Compact and now provides those services previously provided by the BIA. Enrollment and allotment records are maintained by the Cherokee Nation. Any question with regard to the Cherokee Nation should be referred to:

6 By the Act of August 10, 1946, 60 Stat. 976, Congress recognized the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in Oklahoma (UKB) for the purposes of organizing under the Oklahoma Indian Welfare Act. In 1950, the UKB organized under a Constitution and Bylaws approved by the Secretary of the Interior. Members of the UKB consist of all persons whose names appear on the list of members identified by a resolution dated April 19, 1949, and certified by the Superintendent of the Five Civilized Tribes Agency on November 26, 1949, with the governing body of the UKB having the power to prescribe rules and regulations governing future membership. The supreme governing body (UKB Council) consists of 9 members, elected to represent the nine districts of the old Cherokee Nation and four officers, elected at large. Information may be obtained by writing:

7 Information about Indian ancestry of individuals in this category of Cherokees is more difficult to locate. (3) This is primarily because the federal government has never maintained a list of all the persons of Cherokee Indian descent indicating their tribal affiliation degree of Indian blood or other data. (4) In order to establish Cherokee ancestry you should use the same methods prescribed in "Indian Ancestryā and "Genealogical Research" material.
