“Since when have we Americans been expected to bow submissively to authority and speak with awe and reverence to those who represent us? The constitutional theory is that we the people are the sovereigns, the state and federal officials only our agents. We who have the final word can speak softly or angrily. We can seek to challenge and annoy, as we need not stay docile and quiet.”

“Home” is a familiar phrase used at this time of the year to indicate the multitude of emotions associated with comfort, familiarity, security and stability. However, “Home” for the Ram basketball teams for the past two years had been on a school bus to and from their temporary headquarters, the old Grant gym in Grant, Okla. That changed last Thursday night when the Lady Rams took the court against the visiting Boswell Lady Scorpions in the inaugural game in the brand new Rattan Athletic and Event Facility. “I am just happy that I don’t have to drive a bus to Grant every day,” said head coach and athletic director Michael Clay.
