Smith murder trial postponed until at least DecemberBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

The murder trial for a Bothell resident that was set to begin

Sept. 13 was postponed until at least December.

Lawyers for Alan Justin Smith asked a judge to push back his murder

trial during an Omnibus hearing on Sept. 12 in Sno-homish County Superior Court. � e scheduled start to the trail was canceled and another Omnibus hearing was scheduled for Dec. 6, with a new trail date of Dec. 20.

“� e defense was fairly candid that they won’t be

ready until sometime next year,” said Senior Snohom-ish County Deputy Pros-ecutor Craig Matheson.

Smith, who pled not guilty in July, is accused of killing his estranged wife last February and sits in the Snohomish County Jail on $1 million bail.

“That trial date (Dec.

20) is not going to oc-cur,” said Matheson. “It was just a placeholder so that we can actually pick a meaningful date next time around.”

Alan Smith is accused of murdering Susann Smith, who was found on Feb. 12, face down, beaten and drown to death in the bath-

tub of her Bothell home while her two kids were away, according to court documents. She had defen-sive wounds on her hands and arms, a fractured skull, and 19 separate blunt force strikes, according to court documents. She had to be identi� ed by her dental records.

Alan Smith moved back into the home with his girlfriend Love � ai in April and had hopes of re-gaining custody of his two young children, who had been taken by Washington State Child Protective Ser-vices. � ai is now pregnant with Smith’s child.

water and debris. It looked like there were about 18 inches of water under the road.”

Davis said the road looked like it was � oating on the water. Much of the water � owed downhill and into some neighbor’s homes and storm drains. It even broke one homeowner’s driveway.

“(Aug. 29) we had four inches of water in our garage and this week we have � ve inches,” said Alex Ngyun. “We had just � nished the cleanup from the � rst time.”

� e Northshore Utility District received numerous calls at about 3:50 p.m. about the water main break on Sept. 5. A 12-inch diameter water main, located on 81st Place Northeast near 161st Place Northeast, failed, according to the utility.

“� e district responded immediately, isolating the broken water main within minutes of being noti� ed,” the utility said in a release. “� e district currently has all available crews actively work-ing on making the repair.”

� e release stated that

approximately 109 residents were a� ected by the incident. � e water damaged several areas, including sidewalks, the Ngyun’s garage and also caused roadway failures, nu-merous landscape and private storm issues.

Northshore Utility District General Manager Fanny Yee said that preliminary esti-mates for repairing the road are $500,000.

“It could be higher or lower,” said Yee. “We have to cut open the asphalt in every place we can see.”

� e cost to homeowners is unknown.

A message on the utility’s website stated: “We sincerely apologize for any inconve-nience this has caused. Our crew is working with the city of Kenmore and North-shore Fire District. Please be assured that we are doing everything we can to restore water service to the a� ected customers as quickly as pos-sible.”

� e � rst water main break took place on Aug. 29, about 50 to 100 feet to the north of the Sept. 5 break.

“We have neighbors who have been gone for a week,”

said Ngyun. “� ey were here for the � rst break but not (Sept. 5). � ey will be home tomorrow.”

Ngyun said that she cried yesterday when her carpool driver called her on Sept. 5.

“She said ‘Have you looked outside? � ere is a river and I can’t get to your house,’” said Ngyun. “I thought it was Groundhogs’ Day.”

She said that the force of the water and debris was so hard that it broke the asphalt in her driveway.

Ngyun said that the North-shore Utility District o� cials have been very professional and the homeowners are working with the insurance adjuster.

“We just don’t know what is in the water and we have to throw out a lot of stu� ,” said Ngyun. “We might have to replace our washer and dryer, too. I just feel so help-less. Unless we block o� our driveway, how do we protect our house?”

Neighbors have concerns about pressure on the system and the possibility of another break in the area.

Yee said the � rst break may have been caused because of

a void under the pipe.“You need to have support,

a good gravel bedding,” said Yee. “But we think there was some rotten vegetation or something under it.”

Workers found a broken culvert across the second pipe and engineers have not made a � nal determination on the cause for either incident. � e pipe was installed by the company that developed the area in the late 1970s and the utility is searching records to determine if there were mistakes made with the installation, Yee said.

“[� e breaks in the pipes] don’t look the same,” said Yee. “� ey are the same class of pipe and the same material.”

Yee said that main breaks of this size “almost never happen.”

“Most main breaks are very small,” said Yee. “And to have one this size almost never happens. It is very, very rare.”

Ngyun said there was a main break in the area last year but it was because private workers hit a main during construction.

Yee said that the North-shore Utility District does not

expect to have any more sink holes.

“� ere were some sink holes the � rst day (Aug. 29) but they have all been � lled in,” said Yee.

Yee said that in all, four homes had water damage inside the residence. � e most extensive damage was to Ngyun’s home.

For the second time in a week Ngyun had a cleaning crew out early on the morn-ing of Sept. 6 to clean the garage.

“� e homeowners are working with our insurance and the adjuster is on site,” said Yee. “We are helping [residents] clean up their yards.”

Yee said that road repairs will continue through next week but replacing the pipe could take weeks.

All the neighbors the Reporter talked with said that the Northshore Utility District was prompt in their response to the two events.

“� e Northshore Utility District called us and asked if we had any damage,” said Davis. “We had some water in our crawl space and some of the neighbor’s yard was in

our backyard but that is about it. � ey had the water back on within a couple of hours.”

Davis said she talked to one worker who said he was pulled out of his orientation to help with the cleanup.

About seven homes are located in a cul de sac on the hill above Ngyun’s home, right by the construction, and have no access other than the damaged road. One visitor at a home, who declined to give his name, was angry there were no � aggers with the work crews on the morning of Sept. 6. Yee said she was looking into that issue.

“It is really noisy,” said Christine Stapp, who lives on the hill but did not have any water in her home. “� e second [water main break] just happened and so far it is not that inconvenient.”

Crews blocked o� many areas of the road.

“I am worried about when things settle and there being sink holes,” said Davis. “And what is the quality of our water going to be like? Fixing the pipes can create a lot of pressure on the system. We have a lot of concerns about more breaks in the area.”

[ WATER from page 1]

[ MURDER from page 1] Police were called to

the home for various incidents during May, including a report of Alan Smith and � ai having sex in the front yard and for a domestic disturbance.

Smith was eventually arrested in June for the murder. His sister, who has power of attorney, has subsequently put the home up for sale. � e property has had multiple bids, accord-ing to the family’s real estate agent.

Puget Sound Energy of-� cials, Kenmore Police, the Northshore Fire Department and King County Sheri� ’s deputies were there within minutes.

“� e � re� ghters stood o� while the guys with the res-pirators went in and shut o� the gas,” Fjelstul said. “From the time that the car hit the house until everything was cleaned up, it was just two hours. � ey did an amaz-ingly fast job.”

� e woman driving the car told neighbors that she hit a slick spot in the road.

She was trapped in the car by a rhododendron bush.

She was taken to Ev-ergreenHealth Medical Center for observation and questioning. � ere were no visible skid marks on the road, Fjelstul noted.

A tow truck pulled the car from his rec room. It turned out that the smoke was just steam rising from a busted radiator.

Fjelstul said that his neigh-bors really helped his family as well.

“Our kids and pets stayed at the neighbor’s last night,” he said. “We didn’t turn

the power back on until this morning and we did it slowly because there is some exposed wiring.”

Even more aggravating is that the Fjelstul’s just had their home remodeled, he said.

“[� e rec room] is the only room my wife has � nished decorating,” said Fjelstul.

But he is thankful that was all that was damaged.

“I was scared to death,” Fjelstul said. “I am so thank-ful I didn’t have to watch them put a � re out in my house.”

You can close the book on an allega-tion which captivated attention in the waning days of the 2012 congressional

contest between Republican John Koster and Democrat Suzan DelBene.

Spoiler alert: It wasn’t true.

If you recall, in the heat of their duel, Koster insinuated DelBene – now the congress-woman – had given special treatment to a prominent supporter of Democratic candidates and causes while

she served as director of the state Department of Revenue in 2011.

Koster linked her to allegations made in a whistleblower complaint � led by a veteran employee. � at worker alleged the unnamed Democratic supporter avoided paying a $2 million use tax on a personal airplane because of political favoritism.

Koster repeatedly said because it happened on her watch she needed to respond to the charge.

“She says millionaires ought to pay their fair share, but apparently millionaires got a break,” he said in a television interview.

As Koster pushed the matter on the cam-paign trail throughout October, he seemed increasingly frustrated at its failure to gain much traction.

“While our liberal media friends are ignoring this major scandal, we are going to continue asking questions until we get some answers,” he wrote on his campaign’s Facebook page on Oct. 23.

A recent investigation found that “no rea-sonable cause to believe an improper govern-mental action occurred.”

Former state auditor Brian Sonntag launched the probe soon a� er receiving the

whistleblower complaint alleging the tax should have been levied, but higher-ups in the department delayed doing so until it became too late for them to legally collect it.

Sonntag’s successor, Troy Kelley, a Demo-crat, oversaw the completion of the investiga-tion and issued the � ndings Monday.

“In review of the case notes and the subjects’ email, phone records and statements from wit-nesses and subjects, we found the Department never made the determination that use tax was owed by the taxpayer in this case,” investiga-tors wrote.

“Our investigation found no hold was placed on the case that prevented an assessment from being issued,” they concluded. “Additionally, we found no evidence that any employee of the Department intentionally delayed the case in order to allow the statutory time bar to expire.”

No one is identi� ed by name in the seven-page report. Instead, agency employees

involved are referred to by title. Nowhere is the director mentioned.

Koster, a Snohomish County councilman, was on bereavement leave and unavailable for comment, according to his sta� .

DelBene, who described Koster’s claim as “a baseless accusation from a desperate cam-paign” declined to comment on the auditor’s � ndings.

While she said all along she had no involve-ment in the decision, DelBene may need to address this matter again when she seeks re-election next year.

Some books are worth re-reading.

Keep � reworks legal in Bothell

I don’t believe Bothell should ban � reworks. My family has lived in this city for my entire life except for six years when we were overseas. My immediate family loves to buy cheap, simple � reworks from local suppliers and we only set them o� on July 4.

Have we had some situa-tions where our dogs went nuts with some people setting o� illegal � reworks and not abiding by the July 4 only rules? Yes. Have I called the police and to my knowledge they did not respond? Yes, but most of the time they have come through the neighborhood and taken care of the problem. Does any of this make me want to ban � reworks? No.

I love that I don’t have to drive through a ton of tra� c and sit with a billion other people crowded around watching a local � reworks display. I love that our police and � re department and city council

have enough faith in the commu-nity and each other’s services to let us have � reworks. I love that I can have a small BBQ in my yard, everyone visiting from cities with no � reworks can enjoy a few cheap � reworks with us and the bombard-ment of our neighbors across the street in unincorporated Bothell.

And yes, in my house that sits on the border it does sound

like a war zone. Most people in our neighbor-hood love it, laugh about it, and wonder how big it’ll be

next year.For the Morrisons who wrote

in requesting a ban on � reworks, I’m sorry you were shocked by the � reworks. But for those of us who love them, don’t wreck our holiday. � ere are plenty of cities that have a ban on � reworks - leave ours alone.

Keep � reworks legal in Bothell.Brett Spore, Bothell

Kenmore water main break is wake-up call

� e recent water main break in Kenmore should serve as a wake-up call.

If taxpayers and ratepayers want to avoid una� ordable utility bills and huge liabilities in the future, they must insist now on more com-petition in the way public o� cials manage the water systems.

According to a study released by the National Taxpayers Union, roughly half a trillion dollars in government expenditures could be saved over the next four decades by adopting techniques such as open procurement for pipe materials and better asset management. � e Mayors Water Council of the U.S. Conference of Mayors has also voiced support for such processes.

It’s time for community lead-ers here and across the nation to be more proactive in embracing � scally responsible approaches to water policy.Pete Sepp, National Taxpayers Union executive vice president, Va.

Public ignored on SyriaWhat I � nd most disturbing in

discussions about bombing Syria is how much the concerns and advice from the public is being ignored.� e media is being very one-sided in presenting the views of the president and Congress, while only giving lip service to the views and concerns of the public, most of whom are against the U.S. getting involved in yet another con� ict. I was against Bush’s war on Iraq, even going so far as to put an ad in the Reporter voicing by objections. As time has shown, I was more right about the situations than the media and politicians who started an unnecessary con� ict for which we and the people of Iraq are still paying for in blood and tax dollars. � ose dollars should go to resolve problems in our own country.

Why are U.S. o� cials so obsessed with getting involved in the a� airs of other countries while not dealing with our problems is what we all should be asking?George Whitaker, Bellevue

The city of Kenmore is moving forward with plans to redevelop

Northshore Summit Park and finished accepting bids on Thursday for the con-struction work.

But the plan also got a boost from a familiar organization, as non-profit KaBOOM!, along with Dr Pep-per Snapple Group have awarded the city $20,000 through a Let’s Play City Construc-tion Grant. City officials said the money will go towards building the new playground at the North-shore Summit Park site.

“We are thrilled to make Kenmore an even better place to live and play by using this grant to help fund the development of our first neighborhood park since we incorporated as a city,” said Kenmore Mayor David Baker. “The city is dedicated to providing opportunities for play and is proud to be recognized as a Playful City USA community four years in a row.”

The city council unani-mously voted in July to increase the budget for the project from $190,000 to $659,000. Northshore Summit Park is a 3.6 acre undeveloped park in the northeast corner of Ken-more.

“It is a more realistic cost for the project,” said city of Kenmore Parks Project Manager Marc Connelly. “We heard concerns from the community that they wanted the entire park done, not just the play area.”

Community meetings and workshops held during the past six years resulted in a reconfigured master plan.

The project hit some snags, though, when some of the park was deemed a wetland. The work on the park will include drainage and storm drainage reloca-tion, along with clearing,

grubbing and grading, site preparation, pathways, trails, fencing, landscap-ing, woodland

restoration and the new playground.

Landscaping includes wetland and wetland buffer plantings, improvements to the open lawn areas for informal play and plantings to improve the landscape buffer on the western park boundary. The plan also in-cludes park entry improve-ments, site furniture and signage.

Some neighbors have voiced concerns about where the play area would be located.

“It’s about one-third of

the way into the park,” said Connelly. “Once the wetland was identified it precluded the playground be placed [at the main, south entrance to the park].”

The majority of the park is a downward sloping hill going north. Another reason for the placement of the play area is to preserve the flat space for other types of recreation.

“It just shifted it a little further down into the park,” said Connelly. “The height of the playground was also a concern for some residents. There were some who didn’t want to see the greenbelt changed and some who didn’t want to see the play-ground equipment.”

The playground area will be approximately 1,900 square feet containing both “natural-looking” and traditional play equipment. Children ages 2-12 years of age will be able to use the playground.

The city has given any construction company awarded the project 45 days,

depending on weather, to complete the work and hopes the park will open later this winter or next spring.

The city council could give the go-ahead to the city manager to select the bidder during the council meeting on Monday as long as the bid is within the budget.

The grant for the play-ground equipment will help in financing the project

and Connelly said that the money will essentially “re-imburse that portion of the money that was allocated” for the playground equip-ment.

Kenmore applied for 2012 Playful City USA recogni-tion and also submitted a Let’s Play grant application and was selected to receive a Let’s Play City Construction Grant among the 217 com-munities that earned Playful City USA status in 2013.

The grant is part of Let’s Play, a community part-nership led by Dr Pepper

Snapple Group to get kids and families active nation-wide. In 2011, as part of Let’s Play, Dr Pepper Snapple Group made a $15 million, three-year commitment to KaBOOM!, the national nonprofit saving play by ensuring there is a great place to play within walking distance of every child. To-gether through Let’s Play, Dr Pepper Snapple Group and KaBOOM! will build or fix up 2,000 playgrounds by the end of 2013, benefiting an estimated five million chil-dren across North America.

Seven deadly mistakes that will cost Bothell/Kenmore sellers thousands when they sell their home

Bothell/Kenmore - A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home, and a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money.

This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today’s market.

The realignment of State Route 522 and multiple large-scale

redevelopments make for a sense of controlled chaos and an immediate building toward Bothell’s future.

But they are not the only changes taking place in Bothell. � e city is reor-ganizing its management structure following the an-nounced retirement earlier this year of Deputy City Manager Steve Anderson and the recent resignation of Assistant City Manager/Economic Manager Terrie Battuello.

“We had planned for the elimination of the deputy city manager position in the new budget,” said Bothell City Manager Bob Stowe. “We are responding to the current needs of the city.”

� e new management structure will see all of the duties of the current city manager, deputy manager and assistant city manager split into the two positions of city manager and assistant city manager. � is will be the � rst reorganization in the last eight years to ac-commodate a lower number of positions based upon available resources.

� e biggest change for Stowe is that he will go back to having the Police and Fire departments under his direction, along with � nance, legal and the execu-tive o� ce. � e new assistant city manager will oversee the departments of Public Works, community develop-ment, human resources and information services.

Stowe’s project focus will continue to be the down-town redevelopment, eco-nomic development, council and the city’s strategic big picture, while the assistant city manager will oversee tourism, courts, human

services, E-gov, A Regional Coalition for Housing and will help with economic development assistance.

� is will be the third re-organization that Stowe has overseen as city manager; the last happened in 2008 when Anderson was hired. At that time, Anderson took much of the day-to-day ad-ministrative operations du-ties from Stowe so he could focus on planning. Stowe will take back a lot of those duties with the adjustment and he does not foresee the new arrangement changing in the near future.

“Our revenue is not the same as in the past decade,” said Stowe. “I don’t see bringing in a third indi-vidual.”

But he stresses that noth-ing will change with the redevelopment of down-town and that it is “right on track.”

� e Council approved the management reorganization during its regular meeting on Sept. 3. � e new as-sistant city manager’s salary will range from $122,424 and $155,652 per year. � e current assistant city manager range is $113,676

and $144,540. � e savings will come in the elimination of the deputy city manager’s salary, which ranged from $131,832 and $167,616.

� e city has hired Proth-man, an executive recruit-ment company, to conduct the national search for a new assistant city manager. � is is not the � rst time the city has used Prothman.

“� ey will seek out the best individual that � ts the pro� le of what we want in Bothell,” said Stowe.

� e city manager said he expects Prothman to select a pool of 15 or so applicants and then narrow it down to � ve to eight for city sta� to choose from. � e Council will not have a say in the process beyond the Sept. 3 vote as they would in a search for a city manager.

� e earliest a new assis-tant city manager could be selected is November, said Stowe.

“We are not planning for it until January of 2014,” he said.

� e new assistant city manager will join the city as the Council and sta� continue to discuss City Hall redevelopment.

“We will bring it back to council later this year,” said Stowe. “But not until we have the funding.”

� e land slated for the new City Hall is already cleared north and east of the current building. But Stowe said that downtown redevel-opment is going well.

“We want to complete the Crossroads (realignment of SR 522) project before we start that,” Stowe said. “But it is on budget.”

Stowe said that the project should go relatively fast once the public sees the construc-tion as most of the time-consuming work has been completed.

“Ground has been broken on $94 million of the $115 million worth of redevel-opment projects in the downtown,” said Stowe. “It is gratifying with all the hard work that everyone in the community has put in.”

Anderson was Kenmore’s � rst city manager

Anderson’s retirement from public life is news for the entire Northshore area. He served as Kenmore’s � rst

city manager from incorpo-ration in 1998 until 2008.

“[It is] a feeling of honor to have been selected by the Council and entrusted with implementing their policy direction,” said Anderson via email about his time in Kenmore. “A feeling of accomplishment in helping the community and Council make progress toward ful-� lling their vision. A feeling of satisfaction knowing that, when I le� , the organiza-tion was in good � nancial shape, had a high quality, professional sta� in place and the community was well represented with consistent, predictable political leader-ship.”

Putting together a city from the start was not easy and there were many bumps along the way. But Anderson looks back with fondness.

“We accomplished a great deal in 10 years. [We] put together the foundation for a local government to provide quality munici-pal services to the commu-nity, built the Swamp Creek Flood Reduction project, built the SR-522 and Burke-Gilman Trail improve-ments and entered into the development agreement for the Kenmore by the Lake project,” said Anderson. “� ese and more accom-plishments were the direct result of the community, Council and sta� operat-ing as a team. � e Council also became involved on a regional basis, which provided the opportunity for Kenmore’s priorities to be represented on regional boards and commissions. Kenmore citizens, the coun-cil members and Kenmore sta� will always be a special memory for me.”

Anderson le� Kenmore in 2008 to take his current

position with Bothell.“� e past � ve years have

� own by,” said Anderson. “I appreciate the con� -dence that City Manager Bob Stowe placed in me to manage the day-to-day operations of the organiza-tion. As it always seems to happen for me, I got to work with great people both from inside and outside the orga-nization. � e city’s future is very bright. � e downtown revitalization projects are moving forward and the city’s capital projects are be-ing built. � e community’s vision is being realized. � ere is still more to do and, given the political and or-ganizational leadership that exists, it will get done.”

Stowe is also appreciative of Anderson’s contribution and knowledge.

“Steve has been a very good partner to me and

has given a lot to the local municipalities,” said Stowe.

Anderson said he will miss the people

he has worked with the most.

“I am most proud of the people with whom I’ve served, both on council and on sta� ,” said Anderson. “� ey are talented people who believe in public service and have the best interests of the community at heart. I am also proud of the positive relationships I was able to develop with members of both communities.”

Anderson’s last day will be on Dec. 31 and he is looking forward to more time with his family.

“My wife Gayle, who will retire in two weeks, and I plan to travel the � rst six months,” said Anderson. “� en settle into a routine of doting on our three grand-children who live in West Seattle, and play a lot more golf together than we’ve been able to do in the past.”

Bothell changes management structure, Anderson to retire

Bothell City Manager Bob Stowe will have to take on more responsibilities as the city of Bothell recon� gures management. MATT PHELPS, Bothell Reporter

BOTHELL/KENMORE˜

A woman in her 50s was sent to Harborview

during the rush-hour commute Sept. 10 after her car was struck by a Metro bus. The incident took place in the 5700 block of Bothell Way N.E. at the boundary be-tween Lake Forest Park and Kenmore.

The King County Sheriff ’s Office received the call just after 5 p.m. reporting the collision.

“The bus was headed eastbound on Both-ell Way and was fully loaded with passengers,” said King County Sher-iff ’s Office spokesperson Cindi West. “The in-vestigators said that the

woman was conscience but her injuries had to be serious.”

The woman’s car was struck on the passenger side as it exited a dental clinic.

According to wit-nesses the woman was transported to Rhodo-dendron Park via aid car where she was air lifted via Medivac to Harborview Medical Center. The woman’s condition is unknown but West said that there

could be another reason for the need to airlift the victim.

“At that time of day it would take forever to get through the traffic,” said West.

She also added that bus routes were delayed up to two hours on Bothell Way as a result of the incident.

None of the passen-gers on the bus were injured in the collision.

Hawkins selected as Chamber Student of the Month

Bothell High School senior Nate Hawkins was selected as the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce Student of the Month during the orga-nization’s meeting on Sept. 11.

Both-ell High School boys basketball head coach Ron Bollinger introduced Hawkins, telling the Chamber he was selected for his posi-tive attitude, willingness to help staff and other students.

Local REMAX realtor and Chamber’s Ambas-sador Committee member Gerry Eagle presented the award to Hawkins.

Bothell resident participates in research program

Bothell resident Kath-erine Lacy, a student at

Willamette University, spent her summer con-ducting hands-on scien-tific research through the Amgen Scholars Program at the University of Wash-ington.

More than 3,600 people from across the nation applied to the program, but only 255 — including Lacy — were accepted.

“It was definitely a very valuable experience be-cause of the connections I made and the people I met,” said Lacy, a math major. “I took away a new confidence that I could do research and I could contribute.”

The Amgen Scholars Program provides fully funded scientific research experiences to undergrad-uate students at 10 univer-sities in the United States and three in Europe. The program launched seven years ago.

For her project, Lacy engaged in research titled, “Excited State Trans-Cis Isomerization of Azo-benzene: A New ab initio Molecular Dynamics Ap-proach.”

Lacy examined how

the azobenzene molecule changed shapes when hit with light under the guid-ance of professor Xiao-song Li.

“It has a ton of different applications as a photo switch,” said Lacy. “(The research) has different biological applications to open and close ion chan-nels and to control the nature of surfaces.”

In addition to her work in the lab, Lacy at-tended the annual Amgen Scholars U.S. Symposium, where students learned about biotechnology and drug discovery develop-ment, met and networked with other Amgen Scholars and talked with leading scientists.

“Last year, I was try-ing to decide if I should major in math or science. Through this experi-ence, I learned there’s an intersection between the two. That’s where a lot of exciting research is hap-pening,” said Lacy. “This opened my eyes to even more possibilities. It has helped me to solidify the next step to take.”

Best of Northshore contest winner selected

Northshore resident

Vickie Kahlhe was ran-domly selected as the “Best of Northshore” contest winner. Kahlhe, a breast cancer survivor, received a $50 gift certifi-cate to Country Village in Bothell for winning the contest. Readers submit-ted ballots to select the

best businesses in the Bothell and Kenmore area. Kahlhe’s ballot was selected at random from the thousands of votes cast in the Reporter con-test. The Reporter con-gratulates Kahlhe and all the winners of the Best of Northshore contest.

CorrectionThe Best of Northshore

Best Realtor winner was Gerry Eagle, not as adver-tised in the Aug. 16 issue of the Reporter.

The Reporter regrets the error.

Robert A. MatthewsRobert A. Matthews (Colonel,

United States Army, retired) died in hospice on Monday, September 9, 2013 after a brief hospitalization for congestive heart failure. He was 94 years old.

A memorial service will be held on Sunday, October 6, at 3:00 p.m. at Emmanuel Presbyterian Church. The family requests that in lieu of flowers any memorial donations be sent to the

Northshore Scholarship Foundation, P.O. Box 173, Bothell, WA 98041 to support the Pat Matthews Masters of Education Scholarship at UW Bothell, which Bob established in loving memory of his beloved wife.

Bob Matthews was born to homesteaders Claude and Ruth Matthews in Boise, Idaho, in December 1918. He was the youngest of six brothers and outlived them all. His long military career started with a stint as a non-commissioned officer in the Field Artillery. During WW2 Bob commanded an airborne mortar battery in the 101st Airborne and was besieged with his division at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge; he served in Korea as a “straight-leg” infantryman. He and his family were in Heidelberg when the Berlin Wall went up, and the family took many Sunday drives that combined tourism with the practical purpose of learning evacuation routes across the West German countryside.

During the 60’s he earned his Green Beret and served in the operations branch of the Special Forces school at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, prior to a posting overseas to New Delhi, India.

Bob retired to Bothell, WA in 1968. He returned to school to gain a teaching degree, which led him to a new career in tutoring. He and his wife Pat Matthews joined Emmanuel Presbyterian Church in 1968, where he remained active until his dying day in community activities and organizations such as Kiwanis, the Northshore Senior Center, the Seattle Welsh Choir, and the Seattle Rose Society (in which he combined his longstanding interest in roses with a developing interest in photography). He enjoyed lively political contentions with his friends and associates at the Foundation House at Bothell.

He was widowed in 1998 and is survived by six children, seven grandchildren, and three great-grand-children including Robert Ivan Matthews (Donna McKay), Patricia Williams (Bill Williams; Dan Williams, Abigail Herrera, Aaron Williams), David Matthews (Becky Fox Matthews), Susan Matthews (Maggie Nowakowska), Gwyn Stobie (Bruce Stobie; Duncan Stobie, Alyson Stobie), and James Matthews (Vivian Van Matre;

Mackenzie Burton, Isabel Matthews).880557

Any doubts about the young Both-ell High School

football team were erased Sept. 7 at Husky Stadium. The game, which was a part of the Emerald City Classic, featured the Cougars against Coeur d’Alene High School, the Idaho state champion from 2010 and 2011.

But the Cou-gars won the game 44-43 during the final two minutes, on the arm of their only returning starter from 2012 - quar-terback Ross Bowers.

“[Bowers] made great strides and had a won-derful second half,” said Bothell head coach Tom Bainter. “He’s always tough and a great leader.”

Bainter also gave a lot of credit to the other side of the ball for a big defen-sive stand in the waning minutes of the game.

“I’ll tell you what, they

played with heart,” said Bainter. “We were going to kick an onside and our defensive coordinator said ‘We’re going to stop them coach.’ We trust each other. We held them and our defense won the game. As weird as that sounds giving up 43, our defense won the game.”

The final four min-utes of the fourth

quarter was a wild ride for Cougars’ fans as the two teams traded pos-

session four times, including two turn-

overs, and had one big lead change.

Bothell started the game fast with an 88-yard touchdown return on the opening kickoff by Sam McPherson.

But the Vikings would answer with a 70-yard drive, capped by a one-yard touchdown run and two-point conversion to take the 8-7 lead. Coeur d’Alene added to that lead with two more unan-swered touchdowns and

two-point conversions for the big 24-7 advantage.

“[Bowers] was holding the ball too long in the first half and we told him to just trust his instincts and throw the ball like he can,” said Bainter. “He did and he threw the ball on time and threw it well.”

The Cougars didn’t give in, as Bowers’ 17-yard pass found Dayzell Wilson for a touchdown on the next possession. The Vikings extended their lead to 30-14 before halftime.

Bothell’s first posses-sion of the second half resulted in a 24-yard touchdown run on the legs of Colton Sather. The two-point conversion brought the Cougars back to within one score of tying the game. And that score came just minutes later. Bowers and Wilson hooked up again for a 23-yard touchdown recep-tion. Another two-point conversion tied the game at 30-30.

The Coeur d’Alene of-fense just kept on chug-ging along, scoring on its next possession to retake the lead. A second unanswered touchdown extended the lead at the

beginning of the fourth quarter to 43-30.

But Bowers showed those leadership skills Bainter talked about by leading the Cougars down the field on a drive capped by a one-yard touchdown run by Damani St. Johns.

The Vikings then re-ceived the ball and stalled out on offense, giving Bothell the posession on Coeur D’Alene’s 40-yard line as the Cougars’ de-fense came up big.

Bowers would take ad-vantage with one play. A 40-yard touchdown pass to Sather with less than two minutes remaining gave the Cougars a 44-43 lead.

The Bothell defense would again hold off the Vikings to hold on for the comeback victory.

The Cougars began the 2012 season with three losses. The win against the Vikings gives the young Bothell team some-thing they did not have a chance at last year - an undefeated record.

Bothell lost to Bellevue on Saturday 49-6 and will take on Capital tonight at Pop Keeney Stadium for the first home game of the season.

Bothell pulls out win against Coeur d’alene at husky stadiumFootball round upInglemoor

The Inglemoor football team began the 2013 season with back-to-back losses. The Vikings gave up 50 points to Juanita on Sept. 6, losing 50-27 at Pop Kee-ney.

Both the offense and defense struggled in Edmonds against Meadowdale in a 30-0 loss.

Inglemoor will look to get into the win column, as they host Tumwater at 7 p.m. tonight at Pop Keeney Stadium in Bothell.

Cedar Park ChristianThe Eagles split the first two games of the season,

both at home. First Cedar Park defeated Mission High School from British Columbia, Canada, 18-15.

The team then hosted South Whidbey Friday and lost a hard fought contest 21-20 last Friday.

The Eagles will try to get back into the win column tomorrow as they travel to Puyallup to take on Chief Leschi at 3:30 p.m.
