Council met January 19,

Public comments: Resident
Scott Hansen spoke to council
about the recent death of his dog,
who was killed by coyotes on his
property. He pleaded with council
to take immediate action and
put a plan into place to eradicate
coyotes that are clearly of no
value to our beautiful island. The
Public Safety Committee meets
Thursday, Jan. 28 to discuss the
matter (after the press date of
this newspaper). Look for a report
on that meeting and on coyote
incidents across both Sullivans
and Isle of Palms, in the Feb. 12
edition of Island Eye News.

eight-oar
crew
and
their epic quest for an
Olympic gold medal, a
team that transformed
the sport and grabbed
the attention of millions
of Americans. The sons
of loggers, shipyard
workers, and farmers,
the boys defeated elite
rivals first from eastern
and British universities
and finally the German
crew rowing for Adolf
Hitler in the Olympic
Games in Berlin, 1936.
The emotional heart
of the story lies with
one rower, Joe Rantz,
a teenager without
family or prospects,
who rows not for
glory, but to regain
his shattered selfregard and to find a place he can call home.
The crew is assembled by an enigmatic coach and mentored by a
visionary, eccentric British boat builder, but it is their trust in each
other that makes them a victorious team. They remind the country
of what can be done when everyone quite literally pulls togethera
perfect melding of commitment, determination, and optimism.
Drawing on the boys own diaries and journals, their photos and
memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, The Boys in the Boat
is an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in
the most desperate of timesthe improbable, intimate story of nine
working-class boys from the American west who, in the depths of
the Great Depression, showed the world what true grit really meant.
It will appeal to readers of Erik Larson, Laura Hillenbrand, Timothy
Egan, James Bradley, and David Halberstam's The Amateurs.

MYSTERY PLANT
11
A symbol of
Southern strength
BY JOHN NELSON
his is the leaf of a very strong oak, and there is one of these
growing in my front yard here in Columbia. Its a wonderful tree,
must be 70 feet tall, with a rounded, spreading crown. The trunk
has a circumference of 9.5 feet, and a diameter of about 3 feet, or
so (d = c/ as I recall). It sounds like it must be a huge tree, but in
fact, there are plenty others around town that are larger. This species
sometimes gets to be well over 100 feet tall: the national champion
is in Georgia, it turns out. Old, mature trees have characteristic
bark, which is very dark, nearly black, and blocky. The twigs and
buds are reddish. A very hard, strong wood is produced, which has
been commonly used in the past (and still is) for flooring and general
woodwork. The wood is dense and burns hot, so it makes good fuel.
Large trees develop a rounded, spreading crown, especially if in an
open setting, and the species makes an excellent street tree, providing
plenty of shade in the summer. This species occurs naturally on
upland soils from New Jersey to central Florida, southwest to Texas
and Oklahoma, and sparingly into the Ohio River valley. You won't
find it at high elevations, though.
My plant has been growing in place since the early 1960sthat's
the neighborhood story. Each summer it produces a magnificent
crop of beautiful leaves, dark and shiny green above, and gray or tan,
almost tawny, on the lower surface, and with a soft, almost velvety
feel. The difference in color between the two surfaces is quite striking.
During summer storms, the crown of the tree becomes alive with the
wind-driven dance of many thousands of these leaves, madly twisting
and gyrating, flashing green and tan. It's a beautiful show.
These leaves have a characteristic U- or bell-shaped base, which
rather easily distinguishes them from other oaks. The leaf shape on a
given tree is somewhat variable: leaves from young branches are often
pear-shaped, and three-lobed toward the tip, while leaves from older
branches tend to be narrower, with a strong central lobe, commonly
curving, or "falcate," like an old timey sickle. In the fall, the leaves
turn a handsome, shiny red-brown, a bit less ostentatious than some
other autumnal foliage, yet perfectly respectable. The dead leaves
tend to remain on the tree for much of the winter, but eventually they
all blow out. My tree occasionally has a very heavy fruit year, and will
produce thousands of small, striped acorns, which in natural settings
are much prized by plenty of wildlife species. Now I don't have too
much wildlife in my front yard, certainly no deer or turkeysbut the
squirrels seem to be getting plenty to eat.
I've heard that a big oak tree is an acorn's way of making more
acorns. Perhaps that's true.
