Botany in the era of Lewis & Clark Botany and the Lewis and Clark Expedition is the topic of the next “In Their Foot- steps” free lecture. Carol Lucas, an herbalist from Gearhart, will lead the discussion at 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 21, in the Netul River Room at Fort Clatsop Visitor Center. It would have been customary for President Thomas Jefferson to have sent a botanist on the expedition as a primary purpose Lucy Marks of the trip was to assess what re- sources, including plants, were in the lands to the west. Jefferson knew Meriwether Lewis and that, “Altho’ no regular botanist,” Lewis had the ability to catalog plant discoveries, due mostly to his herbal knowledge. In his childhood, Lewis’ mother, Lucy Marks, was the town’s healer/herbalist and well respected. Lucas is a member of Gear- hart CERT (Community Emergency Response Team), where she teaches others how to use what grows around them at times when a doctor can’t be reached, or medi- cines are unavailable. 3 WHS vs. Neah-Kah-Nie, 14-16 Courtesy Debbie Morrow Junior Devin Jackson jumps over a blocking player. Loss is also Warriors’ gain B y B ruCe d ustin The Columbia Press There were some positives in Warrenton football’s 16- 14 loss to Neah-Kah-Nie last Saturday night. “Even though we lost, we played competitively against the No. 2 team in the 2A league in the state,” assistant coach Craig Hor- ton said. “It was a great game to be a part of. When we figure out how to play consistently at the level we played at Neah-Kah-Nie, we’ll go fur- ther than most of us can even imagine,” Horton said. Austin Little, a junior wide receiver, agreed. “We came out every play going 100 percent,” he said. “We never got scared when they scored. We knew that we were able to compete.” The Warriors are at home Friday, Oct. 19, against Gaston.
