meter. Gus Banderman placed second in the shot
put and third in the discus. Jonathon Phelps
placed second in the mile and third in the two
mile. Joey Patterson placed second in the 800
meter. Warren Byington placed second in the

Golf at Potosi
By Ashley Starr Parks
The Bourbon High's golf team traveled to
Potosi to compete in a meet. This was only a
practice meet, not a medal meet.
The golf team members this year are: Travis
Robertson, Josh Hoehne, Jeff Phelps, Ryan
Bobbitt, Warren Byington, Paul Wissmann, Eric
Kaysinger and Sean Kaysinger.
The only teammates who participated at this
meet were Robertson who shot 54, Bobbitt, 56; SI
Kaysinger, 63; E. Kaysinger, 66 and Wissmann,
68.
'qne team is improving every week and they
are a very enjoyable group to work with," Coach
Nathan Holder said.
For nine holes, a good golfer should get in the
high 30's to the low 40's. This is the beginning of
the year so the guys will get better. Only five
varsity members may compete in a meet. This
means not all the members can play in each
meet. Out of the five scores, you take the best
four and that will be your team score.
"I did my best, but I didn't succeed," E.
Kaysinger said.
Golf at Owensville
By Ashley Starr Parks
On April 4, the golf team went to Owensville
to compete in a meet. The weather was really
bad, so the team didn't do as well as they had
hoped.
"I thougth the team showed improvement and
played well in some very adverse weather condi-
tions," Coach Nathan Holder said.
Travis Robertson was the top scorer with 47
points; Ryan Bobbitt, 49; Josh Hoehne, 49;
,Byington, 49; and Jeff Phelps with 56 points.
Sean Kaysinger, Eric Kaysinger and Paul
Wissmann also competed in the match, but they
didn't score high enough to be in the top five.
"It was hard to play because the weather was
bad, but I think that the whole team did well,"
Robertson said.
"It was raining ad there was close to 40 mph
winds. Taking into consideration, the weather
was bad, I think we played well as a team,"
Byington said.
SEMA represenative encourages local officials
to be aware o 'emergency responsibilities
when an emergency occurs,
local elected officials are
responsible for the manage-
ment of the incident, Terry
Toler of the State Emergency
Management Agency told the
board of Meramec Regional
Planning
Commission. The group met for
their regular monthly meeting
April 10 in St. James•
Toler, a planner and Area G
Coordinator, explained that
Chapter 44 of the state
statutes dictates those respon-
sibilities, which includes estab-
lishing an emergency manage-
ment organization and
appointing a coordinator.
"You can delegate authority
but never the responsibility,"
he emphasized.
He pointed out that a coordi-
nator should do just that--
coordinate--and should not be
trying to tell police and fire
how to do their jobs, but
instead should be coordinating
the various agencies needed for
a given emergency situation•
"None of us in this room is
safe," Toler said. "We must
wake up to that fact and take
action."
In other business, the board:
• Learned that the Delta
Regional Authority, which
includes Crawford, Dent,
Phelps and Washington coun-
ties, is expected to announce its
next round of federal grant
funding. Pre-applications are
expected to be due May 30 with
all projects selected and award-
ed by Sept. 30. MRPC staffwill
be available to assist cities and
counties with applications.
• Approved a contract with
the State Emergency
Management Administration
(SEMA) to prepare natural
hazard mitigation plans for
Gasconade, Phelps and Osage
counties. MRPC will work in
partnership with local advisory
boards made up .of city and
county officials and emergency
response agencies to identify
all natural hazards and devel-
op a plan of action, by county
and city, for addressing them.
The ultimate goal is to take
action or put procedures in
place now that would reduce
the severity of a natural disas-
ter, should it occur• SEMA is
paying for the development of
these three plans as they were
identified as high-risk coun-
ties; the state agency is now
