The first act of the play is a swirling portrait of Troy Maxson's life. We meet all the main people surrounding Troy. There's his best friend, Bono, whom he met while in prison. Now the two work together as garbage collectors and sip gin every Friday night. Then there's Rose, Troy's loving and dutiful wife. Lyons, Troy's son from a previous relationship, stops by to borrow some money. We also meet Gabriel, Troy's brother, who suffers from a World War II head wound and now thinks he is the archangel Gabriel. Last, there's Cory, Troy's son by Rose.

Wilson plants all the major conflicts of the play in the first act. Troy is trying to break the racial barrier at work by becoming the first black garbage truck driver. This conflict is actually quickly resolved as Troy wins his battle. We also get strong hints in the first act that Troy is having an affair with a woman named Alberta.

Ultimately, however, it seems that the main conflict of the play will involve Troy's son Cory. Cory has the chance to go to college on a football scholarship, but Troy refuses to sign the permission paper. Troy says he doesn't want his son to suffer from the same racial discrimination that kept Troy from being a pro baseball player. This tension comes to a head when Troy tells Cory's high school football coach that Cory can't play football anymore, which destroys Cory's hopes of going to college.

Things start to go really bad for Troy in the play's second act. When Alberta becomes pregnant, he's forced to fess up to Rose about his affair. Making matters worse, Alberta dies in childbirth. Rose agrees to raise the baby girl, Raynell, but says she no longer considers herself Troy's woman.

Not only does Troy lose his mistress and his wife, he also loses his best friend, Bono. We learn that the two men no longer hang out. This is partly because ever since Troy got the promotion to driver, the two don't work together anymore. More than that, though, it seems like Bono is really disappointed in Troy for having the affair. We also learn that Troy has had Gabriel put away in a mental hospital. Rose accuses him of doing this just to get half of Gabriel's disability check.

The play comes to a climax when tensions explode between Troy and Cory and the two go at each other with a baseball bat. Though Troy wins the fight, he loses his son forever.

The last scene of the play takes place years later on the day of Troy's funeral. We see Cory return home in a military uniform. He's gone out and made his own way in the world but is still struggling with the shadow of his father. He considers not going to the funeral, but is talked out of it by Rose. We're given hope that Cory is on the path to becoming his own man and forgiving his father when he and young Raynell sing a song together in honor of Troy.

The play concludes when Gabriel returns. He tries to blow his trumpet to open the gates of heaven for Troy. When no sound comes out, he does a ritualistic dance and chant. In the play's final moment, we're told the gates of heaven are wide open.

The Hannibal Jaycees' first pee wee fence painting contest for ages 5 to 9 and girls' contest for ages 10 to 13 were a big success, with 35 children registered in the pee wee and 12 in the girls' contest.

The Hannibal Jaycees' first pee wee fence painting contest for ages 5 to 9 and girls' contest for ages 10 to 13 were a big success, with 35 children registered in the pee wee and 12 in the girls' contest.

Both took place Sunday, July 2, before the National Fence Painting. The national event had only four contestants, including the local and state winners from the previous day.

Dawson Behl, 12, of New London, who won the state contest on July 1, was the winner. In addition to several prizes, he received the governors trophy, which may be displayed in the state capitol for one year. The trophy is to be returned to Hannibal on the Fourth of July in 2018, when Dawson will be a judge of the contest.

Ben Schwartz, 12, of Hull, Ill., whose brother, Henry, won in 2016, finished the national contest in second place.

Corgan Kramer, 12, who won the local contest on July 1, finished third, and Noah Lusk, 10, of Houston, Texas, fourth.

Girls' winners announced

Mollie Ferrel, 13, of Shakopee, Minn., won the girls' fence painting. Hannah Schindler, 10, of Hannibal, finished second, and Nicole Moore, 11, of New London, third.

Hannah, the daughter of Russell and Jessica Schindler, had prepared for her fence painting debut by practicing her technique but not using paint. Her costume for the judging included a bag full of items such as a mouse, marbles and firecrackers.

Three girls competing had been in the Tomboy Sawyer contest on Saturday. They were the new Tomboy Sawyer Rylee Rodriguez, Sophia Vandiver and Savannah Corey, who both also won contests at that event.

Additional contestants were Alana Lemon, 10, Kaite Locke, 12, and Riah Wigfall, 10, all of Hannibal; Brook Doughty, 11, of New London; Delaney Bowie, 11, of Deer, Ark.; and Megan Boteler, 11, of Liberty, Mo.

Natalie Vandiver wins pee wee contest

The pee wee fence painting contest was won by Natalie Vandiver, 7, the daughter of Kristen and Josh Vandiver of Hannibal.

Second place went to Landon Nichols, 8, of Hannibl, and third to Logan Upchurch, 9, of St. Charles, Mo.

One contestant came from Berkeley, Calif. Moses Trujillo, 8, was visiting his grandparents, Jim and Nettie Antoinette of Macomb, Ill. After competing he said he had never painted anything except pictures. He discovered the brush was heavy, then decided, Maybe it was the paint. His family toured Mark Twain Cave on July 1, and his mother especially enjoyed Hannibal's historic homes, reporting, Mostly I love to see the old buildings in the city.

Also competing in the pee wee contest were Hannibal youngsters Keegan Gillmore, Wyatt Terrill, Faith Watkins, Eran Dalton, Carlee McCoy, Tuck Danehy, Nathan Tweedy, Cathy Cothern, Allen Saxbury Jr., Zach Locke, Amara Coffey, Rorrie McCoy, Madison Straube, Bella Hayes, Rhett Hayes, and Kayln Butler.

Young fence painters from New London were Noah Hathaway, Jessica Moore and Thomas Moore. Also competing were Michael Fries, Hull, Ill.; Emma Tate, Center, Mo.; Molly Boteler, Liberty, Mo.; Tyrani Cranmer, Thompson, Mo.; Henry Schwartz, Hull, Ill.; Sophia Lusk, Houston, Texas; Connie Janusz, Sedalia, Mo.; and Rowan McDonough, New Lenox, Ill.

Short fences were provided for the pee wee contest. The Jaycees encouraged the crowd to support the company that provided the fences. This was 2x4's for Hope, which had a booth at the fence painting. Its founder, Chris Lawrence, explained to the crowd that each $3 or more donation for a 2x4 board helps build a tiny home for a homeless military veteran. The agency is based in Quincy, Ill., and the website is 2x4forhope.org.

Organizers Seek African-American Actors to Fill Cast

DULUTH, Minn. The Lake Superior Community Theatre is planning a production of August Wilsons Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play, Fences.

Fences is the story of the Maxsons, an African-American family in 1950s Pittsburgh.

The director, Paul Deaner, wants the production to be as authentic as possible, which means he needs an african american cast to fill the roles. Deaner knows finding the actors he needs would be difficult up the North Shore.

Duluth is the market we have to talent search for the show, said Deaner, the Executive Director of the Lake Superior Community Theatre. Its a big stretch for us, literally in mileage and in a shift in our dynamic of how were producing.

Fences was adapted into a movie in 2016, starring Denzel Washington and Viola Davis. Duluths Helen Davis is familiar with Fences and was the first one to get information Wednesday. Davis, who says she acted in high school, hopes to land the role of Rose Maxson.

Ive watched the movie over and over again and I feel I can have some compassion with this movie, said Davis. It brings us out for our culture and community to act and it brings out more, so people really understand what Fences is about.

Two more information sessions are scheduled. The first is Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7p.m. in the Denfeld High School cafeteria. Another is planned for Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Duluth Neighborhood Youth Services Washington Center.

After the information sessions, Deaner will start contacting prospective actors about actual auditions.

It seems like everywhere I go in Jackson and Josephine counties, I see green shadecloth enclosures and spiffy new wood fences that obviously surround cannabis gardens. To my eye, they are far more offensive to look at than the plants themselves. Are those fences required by law? If not, why do the growers use them? If they are required, what were the legislators' goals in requiring fencing.

Rogue River Bill

Hey, that's quite a handle you've got, Rogue River Bill. And, yes, we've heard more than our share of complaints about those fences, particularly the tarp fences.

In general, 8-foot fences are required to obscure the view of the plants, though there are plenty of folks, including growers, who think long wooden fences are just plain ugly.

When Oregonians decided they wanted to legalize marijuana, there was much concern about keeping those plants away from the prying eyes of children.

Rules for the recreational pot program mandate that grows be shielded from public view, with one option to accomplish that featbeing the construction of an 8-foot fence.

However, a solid fence isnt required in every case, and growers can obtain waivers from the state,according to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, which also oversees legalized marijuana.

If the grow site isn't close to a road, or is somehow obscured from public view, the fence wouldn't be required. Unfortunately, many of these grow sites are located near freeways, highways and other areas. In fact, despite the tall fences, pot gardens can still be seen from certain vantage points.

There has been a move afoot to allow growers to install other types of fences, but legislators haven't signed off on that idea yet.

Growing hemp has also become popular, and because it is an agricultural crop overseen by the Oregon Department of Agriculture, it doesn't even need a fence. Hemp plants look very similar to regular marijuana, but don't produce the high.

The only thing we can say, Rogue River Bill, is that after a few years, those massive fences will weather and hopefully become less obvious.

SAUGERTIES, N.Y. >> An 18-year-old town resident who ran through several backyards and vinyl fences in the hamlet of Glasco early Thursday, and appeared to be under the influence of some sort of substance, was taken to a hospital for evaluation, according to the police chief.

Quincy McKenzie, of 35 Sterley Ave., was arrested about 5:11 a.m. after police responded to a 911 call reporting a man yelling in the backyard of a residence on Edgewood Drive in Glasco, police said.

When officers arrived, McKenzie ran through several backyards and through two vinyl fences and continued screaming until an officer was able to subdue him, Police Chief Joseph Sinagra said. He said the officer was about to use a taser on McKenzie but was able to control him without it.

McKenzie was charged with the misdemeanors of criminal mischief (two counts), obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest.

Sinagra said McKenzie suffered only minor bruises from hitting the fences.

The chief said McKenzie was sweating profusely and officers had reason to believe he was on some sort of a controlled substance. Sinagra said he knows McKenzie and that bizarre behavior was not typical for him, which is why officers took him to the HealthAlliance Hospitals Broadway Campus in Kingston for evaluation.

GARDEN CITY, Kan. -- Most know of the luxurious life of Major League Baseball players. Some know of the hardships players face in minor league baseball. But only a few know what players in independent professional leagues go through.

The travel is taxing and the money is barely enough to cover groceries for a month. None of that is deterring Mason Mayberry.

Overview

Soon to be a Major Motion Picture starring Denzel Washington and Viola Davis

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play

"In his work, Mr. Wilson depicted the struggles of black Americans with uncommon lyrical richness, theatrical density and emotional heft, in plays that give vivid voices to people on the frayed margins of life."The New York Times

From August Wilson, author of The Piano Lesson and the 1984-85 Broadway season's best play, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, is another powerful, stunning dramatic work that has won him numerous critical acclaim including the 1987 Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize. The protagonist of Fences (part of Wilsons ten-part Pittsburgh Cycle plays), Troy Maxson, is a strong man, a hard man. He has had to be to survive. Troy Maxson has gone through life in an America where to be proud and black is to face pressures that could crush a man, body and soul. But the 1950s are yielding to the new spirit of liberation in the 1960s, a spirit that is changing the world Troy Maxson has learned to deal with the only way he can, a spirit that is making him a stranger, angry and afraid, in a world he never knew and to a wife and son he understands less and less.

From the Publisher

"Fences leaves no doubt that Mr. Wilson is a major writer, combining a poet's ear for vernacular with a robust sense of humor, a sure sense for crackling dramatic incident, and a passionate commitment to a great subject."The New York Times "A blockbuster piece of theater, a major American play."New York Daily News

"An eloquent play... a comedy-drama that is well-nigh flawless."New York Magazine "A moving story line and a hero almost Shakespearian in contour."The Wall Street Journal

"A work of tremendous impact that summons up gratitude for the beauty of its language, the truth of its character, the power of its portrayals."Chicago Tribune

Sacred Fire

Troy Maxson is an angry man. He is an embittered ex-con who has built inner fences around his emotions that no oneneither his son Gory, his wife, Rosa Lee, nor his best friend, Jimcan cross. A proud and bitter man who was prevented by racism from playing major league baseball, Maxson is at fifty- three years of age a garbage collector. While his job allows him to successfully provide for his family, handling garbage represents for him a grim metaphor of his life. As he did during a bit in prison, he once again feels confined, and those who love him most, who depend on him most, suffer most for it.

Through Troy Maxson, playwright August Wilson personifies the man who grew up during the heat of Jim Crow: first proud, hopeful, and passionate in expectation; then emotionally withdrawn and disillusioned from incessant battles with life. Wilson also masterfully illuminates both the strength that lies within community and the adverse impact of a psychology of inequality that devastates the African American male and, in turn, his family and relationships, potentially disintegrating that same community.

Wilson's Pulitzer Prizewinning play offers a bleak picture of what happens to black males when their aspirations go beyond the fences within which they are confined. The fences of a racist society are compounded by the fences black men have often created to ward off loved ones who remind them of their failures. These fences only harbor. pain and hasten an inevitable asphyxiation. Fences is a gripping portrait of a black man dying.
