Federal judge denies Langston’s motion BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
A federal judge has denied former Booneville attorney Joey Langston’s motion to have his 2008 conviction for allegedly attempting to influence a circuit court judge overturned. U.S. District Judge Michael
Mills handed down the ruling Monday on Langston’s motion arguing his conviction should be thrown out because rulings in subsequent court cases determined the federal statute he was convicted under does not apply to cases involving state judges.
Langston pleaded guilty in 2008, along with several others, to allegedly attempting to influence Circuit Court Judge Robert “Bobby” Delaughter to rule favorably in a case filed by Richard “Dickie” Scruggs. Delaughter was seeking to be considered for a federal judgeship
and was fully released from custody and supervision on April 17, 2014. On April 15, 2015, Langston filed a motion to vacate his conviction based on the rulings in U.S. vs. Whitfield indicating
and allegedly sought influence through Langston and Scruggs with Scruggs’ brother-in-law, then-U.S. Sen. Trent Lott. Langston was sentenced to three years in federal prison, three years supervised release and a $250,000 fine. He completed all terms of his sentence

Corinth aldermen got an overview Tuesday of some of the changes coming to the Corinth School District with its District of Innovation status. The city board thanked Superintendent Lee Childress and the district for their efforts to raise the bar. Childress talked about the modified calendar, differentiated diplomas and some of the other planned changes made possible by a number of waivers granted by the Mississippi State Department of Education. “It’s an opportunity for us to really move forward,” he said. The district will explore performance incentives for instructors. “If third-grade growth exceeds what it should be, all of those third-grade teachers should get some type of performance incentive bonus,” said Childress. “It’s what industry does.” It will be group based. “If it’s individually based, then it will pit teacher A versus teacher B, and we want to promote collaboration,” he
said. Some meetings to inform the school population and community about the coming changes are planned. Thus far, the modified school calendar is the only change formally adopted as policy. In other business: ■ The board approved a 5 percent pay increase for entry-level city employees hired after Oct. 1, 2015. City Clerk Vickie Roach said it was discussed as part of the pay raises implemented with the current fiscal year’s budget but had not been formally approved by the board. ■ The board set a public hearing for 5 p.m. April 1 on property cleanup at 1501 Bunch Street. ■ The board approved applying for a grant through the Urban Youth Corps Program to provide summer jobs for individuals ages 16 to 25. In the past, workers have done projects such as creating the green space behind City Hall. ■ Bids on the municipal depository will be held for further study. Bidders are BancorpSouth, Trustmark and Regions. Trustmark currently holds the depository.

Corinth Narcotics Unit makes 2 drug arrests BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Narcotics Unit made two arrests last week after finding methamphetamine. Patrick Butler, 22, of Matrose Carroll Road, Michie, Tenn., was arrested Feb. 23 and charged with trafficking a controlled substance. Bond was set at $20,000 and he is being held for McNairy County and Hardin County in Tennessee. The arrest followed a request for a welfare check at a hotel on Polk Street. Capt. Dell Green of the Corinth Police Department said officers
made contact with Butler and another subject in a room, where they observed paraphernalia. Officers executed a search warrant and seized 86.5 grams of methamphetamine, $913 cash, a police scanner, ammunition, prescription pills and paraphernalia. Officers released a female and charged Butler. In a separate case, Corinth Narcotics arrested Chris Hollan, 33, of County Road 500, Rienzi, and charged him with possession of methamphetamine. He remained in custody Wednesday with bond at

time, because it is simply not worth missing.” Treadway said the cast includes 53 students, four puppets, several live plants and 11 robotics built by members of the Corinth Junior High School and CHS robotics team. “Because so many students in this group are so musically talented, I had to figure out a way to include them in the play,” said the director. Treadway called the production company to request that the single characters of Chiffon, Crystal and Ronnette become a “company” of girl groups. “They graciously approved the change,” said Treadway. When auditioning was over, ninth grader Addie Paige Pratt was cast in the Chiffon group of girls. Unfortunately, Pratt will not perform. Last

Today in History Today is Thursday, March 3, the 63rd day of 2016. There are 303 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlights in History: On March 3, 1991, motorist Rodney King was severely beaten by Los Angeles police officers in a scene captured on amateur video. Twenty-five people were killed when a United Airlines Boeing 737-200 crashed while approaching the Colorado Springs airport.
On this date: In 1845, Florida became the 27th state. In 1849, the U.S. Department of the Interior was established. In 1913, more than 5,000 suffragists marched down Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., a day before the presidential inauguration of Woodrow Wilson. In 1923, Time magazine, founded by Briton Hadden and Henry R. Luce, made its debut. In 1931, “The StarSpangled Banner” became the national anthem of the United States as President Herbert Hoover signed a congressional resolution. In 1934, bank robber John Dillinger escaped from the Lake County Jail in Crown Point, Indiana, along with another prisoner, Herbert Youngblood. In 1945, the Allies fully secured the Philippine capital of Manila from Japanese forces during World War II. In 1959, the United States launched the Pioneer 4 spacecraft, which flew by the moon. Comedian Lou Costello died in East Los Angeles three days before his 53rd birthday. In 1966, death claimed actor William Frawley at age 79 and actress Alice Pearce at age 48 in Hollywood. In 1974, a Turkish Airlines DC-10 crashed shortly after takeoff from Orly Airport in Paris, killing all 346 people on board. In 1985, coal miners in Britain voted to end a year-long strike that proved to be the longest and most violent walkout in British history. The comedy-drama series “Moonlighting,” starring Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis, premiered on ABC-TV. In 1996, Israel declared “total war” against the militant group Hamas after a bus bomb in Jerusalem killed 19 people, including the bomber, the third such suicide attack in eight days.

struggle to survive years of sexual trauma. Katie Maurice’s abusers were family members and others she trusted. After being placed in a psychiatric ward, attempting suicide and constantly wishing for death, she made one last attempt to overcome. Having had four counselors who offered no solutions or relief, she made one final attempt to reach out for help. For both Katie and her new therapist, this would be the most trying and difficult journey of their lives. The narrative follows the storyline of Katie’s struggle from hopelessness, despair and depression to fighting to reclaim her life. “It is my hope that those who have been traumatized by sexual abuse will be encouraged,” Helton said. The book is also designed for clinicians. “I believe the notes, comments and interchange with Katie will be most helpful in their work with trauma victims,” Helton added. He hopes this resource, along with the workbook, will be an asset to professors and students, enhancing critical thinking and dialogue. Dr. Ryan Fraser, pastoral therapist, in a review of the book called it “riveting, brutally honest, gut-wrenching and insightful.” He said, “Dr. Paul G. Helton and Katie Maurice’s new book, ‘Released! Overcoming Sexual Trauma,’ is definitely not for the faint of heart. The book is unlike anything I have read before on the subject.” (For more information, individuals may contact Helton at 731-377-9724 or at phelton@fhu.edu.)

Soon, they’ll make sure the rest of the world knows about groundbreaking discoveries being made by Mississippi’s flagship research university. The inaugural #StateProud Week March 6-12 will celebrate Mississippi State’s achievements through social media engagement and a series of on-campus promotional events.
TISHOMINGO COUNTY — The surviving driver of a head-on collision last month has died. Arthur Lee Graham, 56, of Vardaman died on Feb. 24 from a blood clot. Graham was the driver of the 18-wheeler involved in a head-on collision on Feb. 15. The wreck claimed the life of Mark Killingsworth, who was driving a pick-up truck. Graham was transported to a local hospital following the wreck with a broken hip and other injuries.

Also, the university will feature #StateProud Week resources online at http://www.social.msstate.edu/stateproud/ facebook.php that can be shared with broader audiences, including #StateProud cover photos for Facebook, videos, success stories, and “Pride Points” — a collection of MSU highlights that can be used for civic club presentations and other promotional opportunities. “We’re providing a variety of resources so that all MSU supporters, no matter where they’re located, can participate in #StateProud Week,” said Sid Salter, MSU’s chief communications officer. “They can use resources on the #StateProud website, including Facebook cover photos, to celebrate MSU’s achievements and share their pride with others. The support generated during #StateProud Week will resonate throughout the year and make sure the world knows about the great things going on at Mississippi State University.” #StateProud is an outgrowth of the We Ring True branding campaign launched last year to reinforce MSU’s longtime standing as a premier research institution where students are driven to make a difference. The campaign includes campus-focused programs meant to celebrate everyday successes along with cross-platform communication tools to help the Mississippi State community-at-large stay informed and share success stories. #StateProud Week will focus on MSU’s trailblazing achievements in scientific research and its leadership in veterinary medicine, agriculture, engineering, business, education, aerospace, architecture and many other fields. Student-led teams at MSU are involved in a number of research and development projects with state, national and global impacts. They’re designing the eco-friendly “Car of the Future,” finding a cure for pandemic flu, developing concussion-free football helmets, and partnering with NASA on future space exploration.

Man charged with murder ABERDEEN — An Aberdeen man has been charged with murder after a Wednesday morning shooting. Jermaine Elliot, 34, has been charged with second degree murder in the shooting death of Ronele Jones, 24, of Aberdeen. The two were at an acquaintance’s house and were involved in a confrontation when the shooting occurred. Jones was apparently shot one time by Elliot and transported to the North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo, where he was later pronounced dead.
City won’t purchase military collection TUPELO — City leaders have declined the opportunity to purchase a local man’s large collection of military vehicles and wagons but profess willingness to partner with private fundraising efforts, reported the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal. Gerald Creely owns a collection that, by common consent of city council members, is impressive. His historical haul includes military vehicles from World War II and the Vietnam War as well as wagons and
buckboards used in an era before mass mechanized transportation. Creely has been accumulating these items since the 1960s. He appeared before the Tupelo City Council at a work session in February and offered to sell the collection to the city for $850,000. He supplied appraisal documents to support the proposed price and offered to donate an $170,000 of additional accessories and memorabilia as part of a sale. Talks between Creely and city leaders about a purchase of the collection have periodically occurred before, but City Hall leaders now deem such a purchase unworkable. “A venture of this magnitude … would require substantial public indebtedness which is not feasible at this time,” said a letter sent to a representative of Creely and signed by Mayor Jason Shelton and City Council President Buddy Palmer. The letter did express receptivity toward a “public-private partnership” in which privately raised funds would cover the cost of the collection. Several past ventures have involved similar partnerships, according to the letter. These ventures have included the Tupelo Automobile Museum and the installation of an F-105 Thunderchief fighter-bomber at Veterans Park.
City denies privatizing of garbage services STARKVILLE — The Board of Aldermen discussed a plan to issue a request for proposals to privatize the current garbage and recycling services on Tuesday. That request was denied. Starkville Mayor Parker Wiseman says after doing research, he is quite certain that it wouldn’t cost any less than their current services.
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD Monday, February 29, 2016 was a near perfect day. The temperature was in the low 70’s, there was little or no wind, and few, if any, clouds until late in the day. As I drove down the highway with the sun shining through the car windows, I put the windows down just a bit to let in some cooler air. When I got home my wife and I took a short bicycle ride and took advantage of the beautiful weather. As I took in the beauty of the day, I could not keep from thinking about Jesus, the Light of the World, and the opportunity we have to be “children of light”. It is the Apostle John who wrote more about light than any other New Testament author, including the well known statement by Jesus in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life”. Within his discussion with Nicodemus, Jesus also focused attention on the fact that “light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil. For everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved” (John 3:19-21). Can we look at the world around us, and for a moment question what he said, or the continuing need for the “Light of the World? “God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk indarkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin”(I John 1:5-7). In these verses I see the perfect nature of God. He is light. No trace of darkness or sin can abide in Him. I also learn that it is possible for me to have fellowship with him, or walk with Him, only if I am walking in the light. If I walk in the darkness of the world, I alienate myself from him, and become his enemy. (James 4:4b) When I abide in the light of God, I have access to the blood of Jesus, which continues to wash away my sins. The old life of darkness and sin is to be put away. Paul wrote, ”For yewere sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light”.(Ephesians 5:8)If you are walking in the darkness of the world, and looking for the way to the light of the world, we Invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

Meeting the train that ran on time BAY ST. LOUIS — I was walking into an episode of “The Andy Griffith Show,” one in which Mayberry tries to convince dignitaries from bigger towns that theirs is a burg worth knowing. Barney is fidgety; Andy is hospitable. The townspeople are picture-perfect. Hundreds of flag-waving, sign-toting, clapping citizens gathered at the Bay St. Louis art deco depot – the prettiest in Mississippi, for my money – to meet the Amtrak passenger train making an “inspection tour” and gauging rider interest. The dip stick showed a full crank case here. Rheta There is a possibility of a run Johnson from New Orleans to Orlando, Florida, which would include Columnist a daily train between New Orleans and Mobile. Bay St. Louis and its Dreamsicle depot would be a stop. The high-school marching band played jazzy music and “The Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Women in satiny Mardi Gras garb danced on the platform. Citizens greeted one another warmly, as if one or the other had returned from an actual journey. The local newspaper had done its job, warning that state taxpayers would have to subsidize any such passenger route. “In Europe,” the editorial said, “where trains work, the railways are owned by the government, the trains can compete with airlines and they are more efficient than driving. In other words, they are nothing like Amtrak.” But editorial writers are the working definition of dull. Meeting the train – even the possibility of one – is not dull. So we all stood in the sunshine and waited for the train’s arrival – which, for once, was right on time – and cheered as importantlooking passengers debarked and shook hands like politicians. Of course, a lot of them were politicians. We all mean to ride the train. Trains are coupled with nostalgia and romance and black-and-white movies, not to mention the thought that you can travel places and won’t be stuck in city traffic or interstate hell. But we’re all used to the control an automobile gives us. We’re not at the mercy of a late train, or finding a taxi once we make destination. We can fill ‘er up and take off in any direction. We can overpack and detour at the slightest whim. The last overnight train trip I took was in 1988. It was grand. I meant to do it again. I never did. I’d love to see the passenger trains return to this world. I figure any tax money not subsidizing trains would be spent on something even less viable than the Sunset Limited. The Amtrak people on board the Dignitary Run passed out pamphlets with hundreds of reasons that riding the train makes sense. Among them: Transit reliance cuts chance of coronary heart diseases, adult diabetes and becoming obese by 50 percent or more. That alone made me want to get on board. Another factoid: The rail sector accounts for nearly 400,000 well-paid, trained jobs in America – jobs that cannot be sent overseas. Good point. Try out-sourcing a conductor or rail maintenance crew. I slept well that night. I dreamed of a beautiful world where the roads are less crowded, where people sometimes become pedestrians, where sheriffs carry no guns and the trains run on time.

Nader: Is Trump our father figure? “The press does not know how to corner Donald Trump,” Ralph Nader is telling me. “He connects with those people who are sick of politics and those who have never been interested in politics. But these people know they are being shafted and they are impatient with politicians. “Trump understands that. And he always exceeds expectations.” Ever hear of the Ku Klux Klan? The KKK? Guys in white sheets? Burn crosses on lawns? Sure you’ve heard of them. Everybody has heard of them. Except Donald Trump. Sunday, when CNN’s Jake Tapper asked Trump about the Klan and how former Klan grand wizard David Duke has endorsed Trump, Trump was like: Huh? Whuh? The Klan? Never heard of them. “I have to look at the group. I mean, I don’t know what group you’re talking about,” Trump said. “You wouldn’t want me to condemn a group that I know nothing about.” Trump is the front-runner for the Republican nomination for president, and he knows “nothing” about the Klan. Jake Tapper found this a little odd. “I’m just talking about David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan here, but,” Tapper trailed off.
“Honestly, I don’t know David Duke,” Trump said. “I just don’t know anything about Roger him.” Simon F u n n y thing is, Columnist when Trump was initially asked at a news conference Friday about Duke’s endorsement, he disavowed it. But by Sunday, under Tapper’s questioning, he pleaded ignorance. The press went crazy about this. Once again, some said Trump is “through.” But why? If you were a Donald Trump voter before, or even leaning toward Trump, why would Trump’s feigned ignorance about the Klan upset you? Trump has gotten where he is by embracing racism and bigotry. He got to the top of the Republican polls after he said Mexicans were rapists and Muslims should not be allowed into the United States. So why should an endorsement by a former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan hurt him? It will probably gain him 2 or 3 percentage points. “People are looking for a strong man,” Nader, who knows a thing or two about running for president, is saying. “That’s the sign of the decay of our society. Trump says: ‘Anyone who
attacks us, I will blow them out of water.’ People want this reassurance, this father figure.” Monday, at a speech in Radford, Virginia, Trump laid it out in very simple terms. “We are looking for security. We are looking for safety. We are looking for good homes. We are looking for good health care. We are looking for a strong military that can protect us from evil.” In eight years, we have gone from a candidate who won the presidency through inspiration and eloquence to one who uses language an eighth grader could understand. Don’t knock it. “His appeal is clarity,” says Nader. “His sentences are very brief: ‘We are being screwed. I will build a wall.’ Put that together with his bluster and his image as a brawler and he gets the attention of those who could never watch debates without falling asleep. “Wordplay is Trump’s genius.” And who will stop him? Nobody will stop him. He understands the Republican Party of 2016 because he is the Republican Party of 2016. “Trump is like climate change,” Bill Maher has said. “We knew it was coming, and we didn’t do anything about it, and now it’s too late.” Marco Rubio is giving it
a college try. Almost literally: Over the weekend, at a university in Virginia, he sounded like a frat boy at his first kegger. “You know what they say about men with small hands!” Rubio said about Trump as the crowd roared. And Trump “doesn’t sweat because his pores are clogged with the spray tan.” “Donald Trump isn’t gonna make America great again,” Rubio said. “He’s gonna make America orange!” Ralph Nader does not find this encouraging. “How demeaning this is to our posterity,” Nader says. But somebody is going to be the next president. Whom does Nader want? “I don’t want to choose between cancer and drugresistant tuberculosis,” Nader says. The Republican Party may shatter over Trump. Historians will make Trump’s rise to the top look obvious, but it was not. I don’t recall anybody predicting it. “Man is a strange animal,” Adlai E. Stevenson said. “He generally cannot read the handwriting on the wall until his back is up against it.” (Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico. com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)
Last chance for America? The “Super Tuesday” primaries may be a turning point for America – and quite possibly a turn for the worse. After seven long years of domestic disasters and increasing international dangers, the next president of the United States will need extraordinary wisdom, maturity, depth of knowledge and personal character to rescue America. Instead, if the polls are an indication, what we may get is someone with the opposite of all these things, a glib egomaniac with a checkered record in business and no track record at all in government — Donald Trump. If so, the downward trajectory of America over the past seven years may well continue on into the future, to the point of no return. Democrat Susan Estrich says that it is “fun” watching Donald Trump. She may be able to enjoy the spectacle because Trump is Hillary Clinton’s best chance of winning the general election in November. Even if the FBI’s investigation leads them to recommend an indictment, the Obama administration is not likely to indict Hillary. No doubt “The Donald” is entertaining, and he has rid-

But these political problems are a sideshow, in a world where Iran is guaranteed to get nuclear weapons and North Korea, which already has them, is developing long-range missiles that can reach American cities. Iran is also developing long-range missiles. Then there are the international terrorist organizations from the Middle East – many sponsored by Iran – whose agents have had easy access to the United States across our open border with Mexico. We will need the cooperation of nations around the world to keep us informed of these terrorist organizations’ activities, and to help disrupt the international money flows to terrorists. Those nations know that helping the United States makes them targets of terrorism. So they have to
weigh how much they can rely on America, before they risk their own national survival by cooperating with us against the terrorists. We need all the allies we can get, from countries around the world, including Muslim allies in the Middle East. The last thing we can afford, at this crucial juncture in history is a president who alienates allies we have to have in a war against international terrorists. On the campaign trail, Donald Trump’s theatrical talents, including his bluster and bombast, may be enough to conceal his shallow understanding of very deep problems. But that will not cut it in the White House, where you cannot clown or con your way out of problems, and where the stakes are matters of life and death. Trump’s acting like a bull in a china shop may appeal to some voters but, in the world as it is, he may well cost us our last chance to recover from the great dangers into which the Obama administration has gotten this nation.

although most Republican votes are being cast against him, the scattering of that vote among so many other candidates leaves Trump with a good chance to get the nomination. Everyone understands that the best chance for stopping Trump is for that fractured majority vote to consolidate behind one candidate opposed to him. But who will step aside for the good of the country? When we think of American military heroes who have fallen on enemy hand grenades to save those around them, at the cost of their own lives, is it really too much to ask candidates – especially those who present themselves as patriots – to give up their one political chance in a zillion this year for the sake of the country? Voters have a responsibility too. They might well ask themselves: Do I plan to use my vote to vent my emotions or to try to help save this country?

The Corinth Study Club met in the home of Mrs. Bonnard Eaton on Feb. 16. A delicious refreshment plate was served before the meeting. Program leader Mrs. James Moffitt introduced the speaker, Dr. Linda Cox-Mills, instructor of nursing at Mississippi University for Women. Dr. Cox-Mills presented an interesting and informative program on women’s health issues and concerns. She encouraged those present to use valid, reputable sources for information regard-
ing healthcare. To help in that area, she distributed a compilation of articles on various health topics that might concern women. She reminded the group that movement is important to one’s health and it should be a part of the daily routine. She demonstrated some simple movements to help to “do something”. Following questions and answers, a brief business meeting was held. The group discussed the May luncheon and was reminded the next meeting will be in April.

House votes to expand vaccination exemptions Associated Press
JACKSON — The Mississippi House has voted to expand medical exemptions to childhood vaccination requirements that are some of the tightest in the nation. The Republican-led
House voted 65-54 Wednesday for an exemption bill as parents pushing the change packed House balconies to watch the debate. Similar bills have died in the past amid opposition from state health officials.
Mississippi House, Senate approve differing school expansion plans BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — Charter schools could enroll students from outside their home school districts under measures that moved forward Tuesday in the Mississippi Legislature, but House members approved a much narrower expansion than the Senate. The move could set up another House-Senate showdown like in 2013, when senators ultimately agreed to a narrower House bill overhauling the state’s charter school
“This is fundamentally undermining the public school system.” Sen. Hob Bryan D-Amory laws, rather than risk defeat of their more expansive bill. Tuesday’s action also seemed to signal that support for wide-open charter school expansion still appears weak in the House, despite an expanded Republican
majority and some anticharter GOP incumbents who lost primary elections to more supportive Republicans. Supporters say they want students to be able to cross district lines in part to allow charter operators a better chance of success in rural areas, where many individual districts are too small to support a charter school. So far, the two operating schools and two more that are approved are all in the city of Jackson. Rep. Charles Busby, R-Pascagoula, amended
House Bill 1044 on the floor to allow students to cross district lines to attend a charter school only if they are leaving a district with a state academic rating of D or F. The bill originally said that students could leave any district. His bill, which passed 66-53, didn’t modify a provision that says districts rated A, B or C get a veto over allowing a charter school. “I felt like it took away from our position that we are moving in a wise and prudent manner to go wide with this before
we have results,” Busby said, saying he wanted the first two schools, which only opened in August, a chance to show results. When asked whether a House majority would have supported a broader expansion, Busby said “You know politics always plays a role.” Senators voted 31-19 to pass Senate Bill 2161, allowing any Mississippi student to cross district lines. It would also allow charter schools to open in C-rated districts without local approval. Debate was sharper in the Sen-
ate, with Sen. Hob Bryan, D-Amory, renewing his opposition to the publicly funded schools that are operated by private nonprofit groups. Bryan said such schools shouldn’t be allowed to siphon off money from local schools, and said schools widely shared across all social groups are desirable. “This is fundamentally undermining the public school system,” Bryan said, disputing the idea that C-rated schools are failing. “It affects a majority of districts in the state.”

Capital murder suspect escapes Mississippi jail Associated Press
VICKSBURG — Authorities in western Mississippi launched a massive search Wednesday for a capital murder suspect who escaped from a county jail. Rafael McCloud, 33, escaped from the Warren County jail early Wednesday wearing a jail employee uniform, Vicksburg law enforcement authorities said. He faces capital murder and rape charges and is considered armed and dangerous. Schools in the areas were locked down and canceled after-school activities as the search continued into the evening. Warren County Sheri Martin Pace says McCloud briefly took a jail employee hostage and forced the hostage to give McCloud his clothes. McCloud also took a radio and keys, Pace said, but both items
were recovered later on the grounds of the jail. McCloud is charged with capital murder, sexual battery, rape, arson, home invasion, being a felon in possession of a firearm and grand larceny auto theft, records show. He is accused in the kidnapping and death of Sharen Wilson, 69, whose body was found in July behind the abandoned Kuhn Memorial State Hospital in Vicksburg, authorities said. Wilson had been hit in the head and beaten, investigators said. Dianne Mahony, one of Wilson’s daughters, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that she was aware of the escape but declined to comment. Vicksburg Police Chief Walter Armstrong said between 25 and 30 oďŹƒcers are involved in the search, along with mul-
tiple units from the sheri’s department. The search is centered about ½ mile northeast of the jail, which is in Vicksburg. “The search is concentration along Martin Luther King Boulevard where he previously lived,â€? Armstrong said. A handful of Vicksburg-Warren schools in the search area were on lockdown. School Superintendent Chad Shealy said three junior high schools, the Academy of Innovation, Vicksburg High School and Warren Central High School, as well as Bowmar Elementary School were placed on a lockdown. A Catholic school also took precautions. McCloud is described as 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighing 170 pounds. He was last seen wearing green pants and a black jacket.
Prominent civil rights activist dies Associated Press
JACKSON — James Figgs, a longtime community organizer in the Mississippi Delta who was known for playing crucial supporting roles in the 1960s civil rights movement and beyond, has died. He was 72. Figgs died Monday at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Oxford, according to Lafayette County Coroner Rocky Kennedy. In his youth, Figgs led activist groups in his hometown of Marks and in Quitman County, in-
cluding the Student NonViolent Coordinating Committee and the Freedom Riders, who rode interstate buses to protest segregation. He helped register black voters for the 1964 election and he organized local eorts in the “Poor People’s Campaignâ€? for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Figgs later became one of the first high-ranking African-American employees in the Mississippi state auditor’s oďŹƒce. He served as president of the Coahoma County
chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and as vice president of the state NAACP chapter under civil rights leader and state Rep. Aaron E. Henry of Clarksdale, who died in 1997. Figgs and Henry were “two peas in a pod,� said Curley Clark, president of the Moss PointJackson County chapter of the NAACP, who met Figgs when he was elected treasurer of the state chapter of the civilrights group in 1980.

there was insuďŹƒcient grounds to charge an attempt to influence a state judge under the federal statute used to prosecute him. Therefore, he argues, he is not guilty under the federal statute used to prosecute him. He sought a special type of appeal, known legally as “coram nobisâ€? relief which applies to issues brought up beyond the normal time limitations for appeal. Langston argued he had no opportunity to appeal within the normal time frame because one of the decisions aecting his case was not handed down until well after the date for him to have appealed. A coram nobis appeal can only be filed after the case in question is fully completed including any sentence involved served. Mills ruled Monday he believes that the issue raised does not fall under the rules for a coram nobis filing because it’s not clear there was a fundamental error in the prosecution of his case and he believes Langston’s reasons for waiting to seek appeal under coram nobis are insuďŹƒcient. The ruling closes the case at the district court level. However, Langston could choose to file an appeal with the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

District welcomes back students MADISON TOWNSHIP, Ohio — Teachers and staff greeted students as they arrived Wednesday and uniformed police stood by as classes resumed in a southwest Ohio district two days after authorities say a 14-year-old boy shot students in a cafeteria. Madison Local Schools officials said staff members joined students on their bus rides Wednesday morning and had a first-dayof-school style welcome at the campus just west of Middletown where some 1,600 students from pre-K through grade 12 attend. Police were on hand and crisis counselors were in the schools. School officials said teachers and other staff would lunch with students in the cafeteria where the shooting took place. A brief statement on the district’s Facebook page said “the morning went very well,� and thanked everyone for supporting each other as the district moves forward. The 14-year-old shooting suspect, James Austin Hancock, remained in juvenile detention after denying charges including attempted murder through his attorney in a brief court hearing Tuesday. Butler County authorities were considering whether to seek to move his case into adult court. Authorities said two students were shot, two others were hurt, and all were recovering from injuries not considered life-threatening.
Father competent to be tried for death ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. — A Kentucky man charged in his 4-monthold son’s beating death has been found competent to stand trial. The News-Enterprise reports 35-year-old Daniel Antoine Cox was determined mentally able to stand trial following an evaluation by doctors. Cox is charged with murder-domestic violence in the death of Jayceon Chrystie. Court records say witnesses called 911
on Aug. 6 after seeing a man driving down a highway beating an infant in a car seat. Cox left the unresponsive infant with the baby’s mother, who called police. Authorities say the child was black and blue, had no pulse and his eye was swollen shut. Jayceon died two days later at a hospital. Jefferson County Deputy Coroner Bob Fraction said the cause of death was “inflicted traumatic injury to the head.�
Police: Teen shoots family after fight NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A 16-year-old boy got into an argument with his family when he didn’t want to get out of bed and go to school and he shot his grandmother, a younger sister and a 6-year-old nephew, authorities said. Metro Nashville Police said in a statement that the boy’s mother and grandmother told investigators that he got angry Tuesday when they told to him to get up. He made threats and went to a closet, got a handgun that nobody in the household knew he had and started firing inside the family’s east Nashville apartment, police said. His 67-year-old grandmother was struck by bullets at least twice and the nephew and 12-year-old sister suffered graze wounds. The boy’s 2-year-old sister and mother were in the apartment, but neither was injured by the gunfire. The boy fled on foot and dropped off the gun at a nearby apartment, police said. The teen was captured a short time later near railroad tracks. The family members are expected to survive. The teen has been charged with four counts of attempted homicide and one count of reckless endangerment.

Ferrara Candy closes plant WINONA, Minn. — The candy company that makes Lemonheads, Red Hots and Atomic Fireballs plans to close its plant in Winona. The Ferrara Candy closing affects 124 employees, who will be out of work at the end of April. The company plans to move production to another plant in Bellwood, Illinois. The closing follows a fire at the Minnesota plant last month. The fire started in some candy-making equipment, causing extensive damage to machinery but relatively minor damage to the building.
Virginia man enters pleas in 2 slayings RICHMOND, Va. — A Virginia man has avoided a possible death sentence by pleading guilty to first-degree murder and abduction with intent to defile for the slayings of two college students. Jesse LeRoy Matthew Jr., 34, entered the pleas Wednesday in Albemarle County Circuit Court and received four consecutive life terms. Matthew already was serving three life terms for a 2005 sexual assault in northern Virginia. The former hospital orderly pleaded guilty in the September 2014 killing of 18-year-old University of Virginia student Hannah Graham and the 2009 slaying of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington, who vanished after a Metallica concert at the University of Virginia. According to authorities, Graham and Harrington were young women in vulnerable straits when they vanished in Charlottesville five years apart.

House says no to legalizing marijuana JACKSON — The Mississippi House has voted against an unexpected question of whether the state should legalize marijuana. Democratic Rep. Steve Holland of Plantersville offered the legalization question Tuesday during a debate on a bill that would revise penalties for drug crimes. His amendment failed with 90 votes against and 29 in favor. Longtime lawmakers say it was the first time in decades, or maybe even ever, for the Mississippi House to vote on the question of legalizing marijuana. The attempted amendment was on House Bill 701. Holland says he was trying to reduce the state’s prison costs.
Two Texans admit to meth conspiracy GULFPORT — Two Texas men have admitted conspiring to distribute crystal meth in Mississippi from January 2013 through mid-July. The Sun Herald reports 37-year-old Sergio Contreras, of Penitas, Texas, pleaded guilty Monday in U.S. District Court in Gulfport. Twenty-seven-yearold Oscar Martinez, of Weslaco, Texas, pleaded guilty Feb. 23. They each face maximum penalties of 20 years in prison, three years’ probation and a $1 million fine. Prosecutors say the drug crimes were committed in George County. A federal grand jury had indicted both in July, saying the amount of crystal meth, known as ice, was large enough to merit a prison term of 10 years to life. U.S. District Judge Sul Ozerden set Contreras’ sentencing for May 23. Martinez will be sentenced May 25.
Manuel Garcia, 27-yearold Refugio Garcia De Lira and 20-year-old Nancy Lizbeth Ramirez are being held for hearings in U.S. District Court in Gulfport. The criminal complaints say the trio was arrested Saturday night after they arrived at an unspecified Gulfport location in two vehicles less than an hour apart. The complaint was filed by a Mississippi Highway Patrol officer assigned to a Drug Enforcement Administration Task Force. They were arrested and brought before a magistrate judge Monday. An interpreter was called in and the three each asked for a preliminary hearing. They are held for preliminary and detention hearings set for next week.
Man accused of fraud in home-repair job GULFPORT — Harrison County authorities say a felon on probation for a felony bad-check conviction is now accused of home-repair fraud. Sheriff Troy Peterson tells The Sun Herald a homeowner had paid 45-year-old Mitchell Ramone Shope nearly $29,000 in advance for renovations and has filed a complaint alleging Shope failed to complete the work. Justice Court Judge Albert Fountain set his bond at $30,000.
Aldermen OK line of credit of $400,000 NATCHEZ — Natchez aldermen have agreed to take out a $400,000 line of credit to help cover any of the city’s upcoming cash needs. The Natchez Democrat
reports the board met Tuesday for a work session in order to decide how to fund the projects that will need money during the current fiscal year, which ends July 1. Community Development Director James Johnson says the city needs a total of $1,951,936 to fund the projects, all but $692,498 of which would be reimbursed by grants from the state and federal governments. The $400,000 line of credit could be used for road projects, matching funds or other city needs.
State will defend lawsuit over flag JACKSON — Mississippi’s attorney general says he will defend the Confederate-themed state flag against a lawsuit that seeks to remove the banner, even though he thinks the flag hurts the state and should change. Democrat Jim Hood said Wednesday that his opinion about state laws won’t prevent him from fulfilling his oath to defend them. Carlos Moore, an attorney from Grenada, Mississippi, filed a federal lawsuit Monday that says the Confederate X on the flag puts him and other African-Americans in danger. He cited the slayings of black worshippers at a church in South Carolina last summer. The white suspect in that case had previously posed for photos with a rebel flag. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant called the lawsuit “frivolous.� The Republican said voters should decide whether to redesign the state flag.
DEA: Couriers bring in 12 kilos of meth GULFPORT — Authorities say three Tulsa, Oklahoma, residents are accused of acting as couriers to bring 12 kilos of crystal meth to Mississippi. The Sun Herald reports 23-year-old Christian

Hard-working sister balks at supporting lazy brothers D E A R ABBY: I am a community college sophomore (age 20) in an international honor Abigail society, douVan Buren ble-majoring in biotechnology and Dear Abby biological sciences. My dream is to become a cardiologist. I have worked hard and excelled at my studies, as well as in my friendships and sports. However, my brothers have not. My older brother, “Aaron,” barely graduated from community college and my younger brother, “Greg,” dropped out after his first semester. I know it’s not healthy for me to think this way, but I am afraid I am going to be the one who has to support them. Aaron plays video games all day, while Greg does nothing. I’m afraid I’ll be stuck playing “Mommy” for my adult brothers for the rest of my days. How do I get across to them that they’re not children anymore and they need to take their education seriously? -- NOBODY’S MOMMY IN
MARYLAND DEAR NOBODY’S MOMMY: Where are your brothers living now? With your parents? If that’s the case -- and I suspect it is -- that message should come from them. That your parents would allow Aaron to sit around all day playing video games rather than become independent means they are his enablers. There is truth to the saying, “The Lord helps those who help themselves.” Warn the boys that unless they start preparing for their future, they could wind up living in the street, because when your parents go, you have no intention of supporting them financially. That responsibility is not and should not be yours. DEAR ABBY: I just got married to a beautiful woman. She’s tall and elegant. The problem is, she’s addicted to taking pictures of herself. She takes at least 100 of them a day. When we’re driving, she’s busy taking selfies. When we go out, she asks me to take pictures of her. If I tell her I don’t want to take more pictures, she pleads with me to take “just one more,” which really means five. When we are out to dinner and I get up to go to the restroom, she asks total strangers
to take her picture. When we were on vacation and we went to the pool, she wore full makeup for two reasons, she said: (1) She’s not putting her head under water, and (2) she wants some pictures taken of her. I have told her many times how much this annoys me, but she says I am preventing her from what she enjoys. What can I do to help her? -- TOO MANY PHOTO OPS DEAR TOO MANY PHOTO OPS: You have married a beautiful (tall, elegant) piece of arm candy. Because you did not mention even one other positive quality about her, I assume this is what you wanted. Her vanity/ insecurity about her looks is the “accessory” that goes with your trophy. It will take effort on your part to help her recognize that what she has to offer beneath the surface is at least as important as her looks. (It may also take the services of a psychologist, if she’s willing.) Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Progress will be thwarted by too many opinions. They can’t all be right, and they can’t all be wrong. You’re the one to sort this out. There must be a consensus if the group is to move forward! TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Showing off is never cool, and yet how are you going to let them know what you can do if you never perform it or even mention it? Today you’ll walk that fine line between standing out and fitting in. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some people complain to sound big, when actually it only makes them sound weak, insecure and ill-equipped to do what it takes to make a situation work. As far as you’re concerned, complaining is a red flag. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There’s a score to even. The other person might not think so, but you have your own way of accounting, and in your book, things won’t be quite right until you execute a certain chain of
action. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If it can be done, you’ll find a way to do it. Whether or not it’s worth doing, well, that part might be out of your hands, as an authority figure is likely to request much that falls under the category of “your job,” whether you like it or not. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People want to know about you, but you’re feeling shy and perhaps inclined to avoid the subject of you altogether. It would be a mistake to let the day slip by without revealing at least a little about your remarkable life. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Bottom line, this certain someone sees something different in you. You’re attractive in your uniqueness, and if you continue to be so intriguing you’ll soon gain a fan for life. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A sacrifice will prove that you’re committed. But if you give too much, this will backfire on you. Over-giving could be taken as a sign that you care more about what the other person thinks of
you than you care for yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You know what you’re doing and where you’re going. You’ll find the way, the alternate way, the scenic route and the shortcut. And you’ll generously help anyone else headed in the same direction as well! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you come up against someone’s pride, go gently. Keep in mind that this person may feel like he or she is fighting for life itself. That’s the power of ego. Pride is all some people feel they have. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Not feeling quite as driven? The break from ambition will be healthy for you. Bonus: If you just go along for the ride, you’ll wind up at the same destination as you would if you were in the driver’s seat. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Improvement will be simple for you. Name the problem and solve it. If it’s too big, make it smaller. If it’s still too big, make it smaller still, until it’s small enough to solve.

The S&P 500’s Energy Drain There’s one big reason profits for the S&P 500 companies as a whole are down again: Energy prices. With most quarterly results now in, overall profits for the last three months of last year for the S&P 500 are down 3.3 percent compared with a year earlier. If the energy sector were excluded, it would be a different story: Profits would be up 2.6 percent, according to FactSet. Sure, some of the weakness in corporate profits can be tied into economic weakness globally and the strong U.S. dollar. But energy earnings are down 73 percent from a year ago, according to FactSet,
creating a huge drag. For some sub-industries the damage is even worse. Oil and gas exploration and production company profits are down 163 percent, meaning the subsector is losing money as a whole. Early this year oil sank to its lowest level since 2003 and late last month the price of natural gas dropped to its lowest level since 1999. It doesn’t appear first quarter energy profits are going to be much better. FactSet estimates earnings for the energy sector will be down 95 percent. That means the entire sector is expected to realize almost no profit for the current quarter.
per share for the S&P 500 as a whole have been dragged down in recent months No Energy Earnings by dismal earnings in the energy sector, a result of low oil and natural gas prices. $120

Appetizing results?
Economic bellwether
Strong sales at Kroger’s supermarkets have helped lift the company’s earnings. Wall Street analysts anticipate more of the same today, when Kroger serves up its fiscal fourth-quarter results. The company, which runs Ralphs, Harris Teeter and Kroger supermarket chains, posted improved earnings and revenue in the first three quarters of its fiscal year that ended in January.
Orders to U.S. factories have been mostly falling. They slumped 2.9 percent in December, the fourth decline in five months, closing out a year in which demand for American manufactured goods retreated for the first time in six years. Economists predict that the Commerce Department will report today that factory orders bounced back in January.

The best thing to do sometimes is back off Annie’s Mailbox
Dear Annie: I am a very loving mother of two adult daughters. “Jane” has a child with her ex and another with her current husband. “Cindy” is married with one child and one on the way. At first, things with Jane were great. We helped them furnish their house with all new appliances, and also helped financially when they asked. Three years ago, we had a falling out and now Jane doesn’t call, text, email, nothing. When we see each other in public, she is civil, but otherwise, treats me as if as if I were dead. We are not allowed to see our grandchildren, although our ex-son-inlaw allows us to see the one grandchild when he has visitation. Cindy, who also receives financial help when she asks, lets me see my grandchild only once a month for four hours. She sometimes allows me to Skype, but no more than once a week, if I’m lucky. When she had a miscarriage a few years ago, I tried my very best to console her, but she wouldn’t let me near her for two weeks. Others were allowed to be there, but not her own mother. She won’t let me talk to her about her current pregnancy. I want to be a part of their lives, but we can’t
get past this silence. I have offered to pay for counseling, but they refuse. I have asked, begged and pleaded for one-on-one time, to no avail. What hurts the most is that I don’t even know why they are angry with me. Any advice would be so gratefully appreciated. — A Loving, Crushed Mother Dear Mother: Your daughters may not be angry. They may be trying to create some space between your life and theirs, and don’t know how to do it in a more loving fashion. Or their husbands may have objected to your presence. And if your daughters are close, they may be feeding on each other’s grievances. It will do you no good to keep pounding at this. Back off. You also can stop loaning them money if you choose. You don’t owe it to them and it obviously doesn’t influence their level of affection. Enjoy the time you do get to spend with the grand-
children, and fill your hours with other activities that bring you pleasure. Counseling for yourself may help you accept this, and we hope your daughters will come to appreciate you again soon. Dear Annie: You’ve printed several letters from parents and grandparents complaining that they never receive a thank-you note. My mother-in-law was also disappointed that one of her grandsons never acknowledged the checks she sent for birthdays and Christmas. To change the situation, she sent a card mentioning the enclosed check, but she didn’t actually enclose it. The grandson promptly called to thank her, and also to say that she’d apparently forgotten to put the check in the envelope. — J. Dear J.: Your mother-in-law sounds like a very clever woman.

A WEEKLY SPIN AROUND THE WORLD OF COLLEGE HOOPS
1. NEVER DOUBT KANSAS On Jan. 25, Kansas was 5–3 in the Big 12 and appeared to have at least two legitimate challengers for the conference crown in Oklahoma and West Virginia. Two months later, Kansas clinched a piece of history. The Jayhawks defeated Texas Tech 67–58 to grab at least a share of the Big 12 title, their 12th conference championship in a row. Only UCLA’s run under John Wooden, which included 13th consecutive AAWU/Pac-8/10 titles, exceeds what Bill Self has done. During this run, Kansas has shared the title only four times. Since Kansas started this streak in 2004-05, only two major conference teams have claimed more than four conference titles — North Carolina KDV VL[ UHJXODU VHDVRQ WLWOHV LQ WKH $&& 2KLR 6WDWH KDV ¿ YH LQ WKH %LJ 7HQ

Wisconsin’s Gard enjoying banner success BY GENARO C. ARMAS Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Wisconsin interim coach Greg Gard has never actively campaigned to become the permanent successor to the retired Bo Ryan. The Badgers’ win-loss record sends a strong message without saying a word. Wisconsin is 12-5 under Gard going into the game Wednesday night at Minnesota. With a winning percentage of .706, Gard would be one of the most successful interim coaches in the last two decades if the Badgers keep winning at that clip.
Now that the university has formally started the process of finding a permanent replacement, current and former Badgers haven’t been shy when asked if they wanted to oer an endorsement. “I think it’s pretty obvious — Coach Gard. Everybody on our team loves him,â€? point guard Bronson Koenig said recently. Gard’s place in “interimâ€? success is tricky to measure. Schools decide who gets credit for wins and losses when interim coaches are in charge. In cases where a coach is suspended or out sick, for instance, a school could choose to assign a win or loss to the perma-
nent head coach, even if an interim replacement is running the team. Going by win-loss records alone, the closest way to any oďŹƒcial comparison of Gard’s success is to look at teams with records for two coaches in a season, and then to double-check whether one of the coaches had an “interimâ€? tag. Using that measure, Gard’s winning percentage is best among coaches on the sideline for at least 10 games since 1996-97, according to STATS. Other top coaches were: â– Kerry Rupp, Utah, 9-4 (.692) in 2003-4. â– Mark Byington, Charleston, 7-4 (.635) in 2011-12.
■Brad Soderberg, Wisconsin, 16-10 (.615) in 2000-1. ■Dick Hunsacker, Utah, 18-12 (.600) in 2000-1. None of those other coaches stayed on permanently. At Wisconsin, Soderberg was replaced by Ryan, who left Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Gard, also a Milwaukee assistant, followed Ryan westward, so he has direct knowledge that a successful interim stint doesn’t automatically lead to a full-time job. Gard has stressed taking things one game at a time. He would rather talk about his team than about his job status.
After a 1-4 start in Big Ten play, the Badgers have won 10 of 11 to surge back toward the top third of the conference standings. “I’ve said from Day 1, this is not about me,� Gard said Sunday after the 68-57 win over Michigan. “I’ve told the team this is not an audition.

State tournament time Boys state tournament capsules BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
The Mississippi High School Activities Association’s State Basketball Tournament begins today with 16 games at two sites. Eight 1A and 4A boys’ games will be played at Mississippi Coliseum. Eight more quarterfinal contests are set for the same venue on Friday and Saturday. Play resumes Monday with semifinal action. The semifinal contests, as well as the title games that begin on Thursday, March 10 will be held at Mississippi Coliseum. Here are capsules on today’s boys’ games involving Alcorn County quintets:
Class 1A Boys Biggersville vs West Lowndes Records: Biggersville 16-12,
West Lowndes 24-8 Mascots: Lions, Panthers When: Today, Noon, Mississippi Coliseum On the Air: WXRZ-FM (94.3) Coaches: Biggersville, Cliff Little; West Lowndes, Danny Crawford Last Meeting: Per MaxPreps, the two haven’t met since at least the 2005-06 season. How They Arrived Biggersville: Finished as the No. 2 seed in Division 1-1A, beating Pine Grove 5951 in the semifinals, before falling 59-51 in overtime to Jumpertown in the title game. Beat Hickory Flat 54-47 in the first of two elimination games, then punched a ticket to Jackson with a 66-61win at defending state champion Shaw. West Lowndes: Won Division 6-1A with 64-46 win over Sebastopol in the semi-
finals and a 63-56 decision over Leake County in the title game. Drubbed French Camp 101-47 in the first playoff round, then advanced with a 66-56 win over Piney Woods. Noteworthy This will be the second matchup of the day between Little and Crawford. Little has coached both BHS teams for two years, while Crawford is in his first season at West Lowndes. Lion Tidbits State Tournament Appearances: Eleven since 1980 Championships: Two. It’s the 20th-year anniversary of the Lions’ first title. Last Appearance: 2013 when the Lions won their second state title. BHS finished as runners-up in 2012, Little’s first campaign. Coaching Fact: Little is the fourth different Lion coach since 1980 to lead BHS to the State Tournament. Wesley
Ross, Mike Lewis and Jacky Rowsey did so prior, with this Little’s third go-around with the Lions. Weird Fact The Panthers and Lions are not only in the North for football, they compete in the same Region. Little’s first coaching stop was East Webster, which often goes back-and-forth between competing in the North and South.

Wong agrees to $25.5M, 5-year deal with Cards Associated Press
JUPITER, Fla. — Making a long-term commitment to Kolten Wong as their second baseman, the St. Louis Cardinals agreed Wednesday to a $25.5 million, five-year contract with the 25-year-old. Wong gets $1.25 million this year, $2.5 million in 2017, $4 million in 2018, $6.5 million in 2019 and $10.25 million in 2020. St. Louis has a $12.5 million option for 2021 with a $1 million buyout. He would have been eligible for salary arbitration next
winter and for free agency after the 2019 World Series. “Now that I kind of have some kind of security, I understand that I can go out there and do different things and not worry about basically trying to play a good game every single game of spring training,” Wong said. “I can go in there and focus on certain parts of my game that I really want to work on and really hone in on those things.” Wong played in 32 games for the 2013 Cardinals, who
reached the World Series. He stole 20 bases in 2014, when he hit .249 with 12 homers and 42 RBIs, finishing fourth in NL Rookie of the Year voting. He hit three homers that postseason, including a tiebreaking seventh-inning drive against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 2 of the NL Division Series. “Kolten has already been a key part of several highprofile moments during his young career, and we look forward to his continued growth
and success as a member of this organization,” Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said in a statement. He hit .262 with 11 homers and 61 RBIs last year while playing in a career-high 150 games, but his stolen bases dropped to 15. “I’m going to try to steal a lot more bases in spring training just to get a feel for how much I can test the limits just get out there and push it and see what happens,” Wong said.

Coaching Fact: Stafford is the 12th Lady Warrior coach in 42 years since the program was revived. At 33-25 in two seasons, he’s the lone one to boast a career winning record. Weird Fact Stafford has a connection to the other three teams playing today. He played for Biggersville, helping lead the Lions to the 1987 Tournament, and also coached the Lady Lions during the 1998-99 season. He also led the five current Warrior sophomores to the 5 County Tournament championship when they were eighth graders.

Ivy League leans toward less tackling in practice Even before Ivy League coaches voted to eliminate full-contact practices from the regular season, teams all across college have been following the NFL’s lead by cutting back on the amount and intensity of hitting done while preparing players for game day. “Very, very rarely do we say, ‘Let’s go full-speed tackling once we get into the year,” Nebraska coach Mike Riley said Wednesday. “So it wouldn’t be a dramatic change for us, nor would it be for the majority of people. I think it would be just a definition of what we already do.” Growing concerns about head injuries and the longterm effects of football’s violence on players’ health have led to changes in the way the game is coached. Teams and coaches are also motivated by the need to protect their assets, whether that is a professional player making millions or a college athlete on scholarship. “You got to get your best horses to the starting gate as fresh as possible,” Harvard coach Tim Murphy said. Murphy said the Ivy League’s new policy won’t affect the way he runs his program.
“It will not eliminate anything because we’ve been doing this for 15 years,” said Murphy, who has guided Harvard to nine Ivy League championships in his 21 seasons as coach. “We’ve adopted the NFL model.” The league’s collective bargaining agreement limits full-contact practices during the season to 14. Dartmouth coach Buddy Teevens took his lead from Rams coach Jeff Fisher and has been even more progressive when it comes to cutting down on contact in practice. “We never take one of own players to the ground,” Teevens said. Teevens has eliminated all live tackling from practices, including spring and preseason. He said the result has been fewer concussions, fewer soft tissue injuries and — surprisingly — better tackling. Instead of practicing on each other, Teevens’ players practice on pads and dummies, including a robotic tackling dummy. Since cutting back on tackling in 2010, Dartmouth has not had a losing record and last year Big Green tied Harvard for the Ivy League championship. Teevens has pushed for others to follow his lead,
but putting a league-wide policy in place allows coaches more comfort to try something different. “To just say all of us are going to shut it down completely, there was no advantage gained or disadvantage to doing this,” he said. The decision by the Ivy League coaches still needs to go through an approval process, which includes athletic directors signing off on it. The proposal is expected to pass. The eight-team Ivy League plays in FCS, the second-tier of Division I football, but even in college football’s top-tier, FBS, the trend has been less contact in practice. In 2010, the Pac-12 passed a policy that limited teams to no more than two full-contact practices per week during the regular season. The Big 12 took that a step further last year. The conference’s policy limits teams to two fullcontact opportunities per week during the season, but that includes game day. In both cases what those conferences did was largely make policy out of what many coaches — even those not in their conferences — were already practicing. “Honestly, I think one day a week is plenty for
that during the season,” Baylor coach Art Briles said. “They’re getting it on Saturday all you want.” Banning full contact does not mean zero-contact practices. Most teams will thud a day or two each week. Linemen come off the ball hard and battle in the interior lines. Players pop shoulder pads and occasionally someone hits the turf, but the idea is to stay off the ground. During Baylor’s 15 spring practice sessions, the Bears will only go full contact during their three scrimmages. Briles said he would be apprehensive about taking tackling out of all practices. “I think there’s definitely pros and cons to each,” he said. “Safety would certainly be increased. The cons would be you’re putting people out there in live situations that have never done it before, then expecting them to be able to take care of themselves. It’s hard to preach what you can’t teach.” Teevens said he has been confronted by critics who believe he is taking safety too far and hurting the game. He doesn’t buy it. “Either we change the way we coach the game,” he said, “or we’re not going to have a game to coach.”
resumes. Last week, Koenig’s former teammate, Zach Bohannon, wrote a column posted online by the Wisconsin State Journal in which he said, “The UW Athletic Department should name Gard as its head coach.” Bohannon,
well-respected in Wisconsin circles, was teammates with Koenig on the Badgers’ Final Four team in 2014. Forward Sam Dekker was also teammates with Koenig on the back-toback Final Four squads before bypassing his se-
nior year for the NBA. In Milwaukee this week before a loss to the Bucks, the Houston Rockets rookie praised the steadfast Gard. “Sticktoitiveness,” Dekker said first when asked why his former teammates have respond-
ed so well to Gard. “He knows what works because he was under coach Ryan for so long. He has those principles in him and he knows how to preach them to the guys,” Dekker said. “He’s a guy that’s the right man for the job.”

earliest anticipated start date being March 8 — the day before the start of the conference tournament. This is not exactly the ideal time for interested candidates from other power-conference schools or major programs to start sending in
