Tournaments bring crowds, cash to area BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The packed scene at Crossroads Regional Park last weekend is one the park and local officials hope becomes familiar. The expanded recreational facility hosted its first major event — a USSSA baseball tournament — on Jesse Bynum field and four fields in the new complex on Droke Road Friday through Sunday. Gate counts topped 1,700 spectators as 27 teams took their game to the new fields. “You have to build your resumé up, and this is a step in that right direction since we plan to seek higher levels of play,” said Corinth-Alcorn Parks & Recreation Director Ray Holloway.

It is also a balancing act between local recreation and the bigger events that drive economic benefits for local businesses and the city. “We work for our constituents, so your recreation leagues are our top priority,” he said. “Your tournaments are secondary. However, tournaments are the ones that adds to the economic impact. About 30 percent of our budget is pretty much based on ‘heads in beds,’ which assist with our in-house budget needs.”

The pre-kindergarten students’ theme was “One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish;” the kindergarten students’ theme was “Green Eggs and Ham;” first grade theme was “I Can Read With My Eyes Shut;” second grade theme was “Cat in the Hat;” third grade’s theme was “The Lorax;” and the fourth grade students’ theme was “Oh, The Places You’ll Go.” One day during the week the entire school was served green eggs and ham for lunch and the kindergarten students got to vote as to whether they liked green eggs and ham. PTO and yearbook staff member Tracey Smith said the majority voted that they actually did like

green eggs and ham. Patricia DePoyster Harville-Nachbar was the “cat in the hat” and came and read to students and around 20 high school students came dressed in costume and also read to the elementary school students. Among other activities, the students were encouraged to dress up as their favorite Seuss character. Some students got a special treat and got the hear “Cat in the Hat” read to them in both Spanish and English and “Green Eggs and Ham” in French and English. While the children had activities lined up for the whole week, it culminated in the National Read Across America Day. “It was a magical day for the kids,” said Smith.

JACKSON — Portable toilets are parked outside the Capitol, city residents are stocking up on bottled water and restaurants are evaluating whether they can stay open with little or no water from the tap. About 40,000 homes and businesses in Jackson will be without water or will experience low pressure this weekend because the city is replacing a major water pipe that’s damaged. Jackson faces the expensive challenge of aging infrastructure. The concrete water main in Jackson dates to the early 1990s and is broken in several places. It is one of many problematic pipes in a city in which boilwater notices are common.

he didn’t have any additional information. Vargas’ lawyers said her order of supervision requires her to check in with an ICE office in Mississippi next month. It wasn’t immediately clear if there are other requirements, they said. Her attorneys had petitioned ICE to release her about a week ago.

Tonight Show. We’re excited to bring that type of talent to the Crossroads Arena,” said Talk of the Town promoter Dewayne Sorrell. Sorrell said the show has a small town feel and they have a great set of comedians lined up and Andy Huggins is sure to be a hit. “Everybody loves Andy. He’s about 68 years old ... I go to a comedy club and look at the talent and his energy at that age and he had me rolling in my chair laughing,” said Sorrell. Other comedians who should tickle the funny bone and leave show attendees laughing are comedian Amanda Walker and host, Memphis, Tenn., comedian Tommy Oler. Sorrell said he is really excited about the show and he hopes it will literally become the “talk of the town.” (Tickets are $20.

When the expansion was planned, the addition of fields was touted as an economic benefit to the community. “Sports will help fill our hotels during the weekend when our occupancy rates are low,” said Tourism Director Christy Burns. “We are excited about working with Ray to bring in more tournaments to Corinth in the near future.” Several notable tournaments are on the calendar for the spring and summer. Holloway expects more than 50 teams for the May 12-14 USSSA baseball AA qualifier for ages 7 to 14, which will be co-hosted with Booneville. It is followed the next weekend by a USSSA baseball world series qualifier. The summer includes a couple of state championships — the Babe Ruth baseball ages 13/14 on July 6-9 and the USA/ USFA fast class pitch B and C on June 30-July 2. Holloway said tournaments at this level are the ultimate goal, bringing the bigger economic boost. “Your C series is based on all-star play, which comes from your recreational leagues,” said Holloway. “USFA is really your tournament ball play, so we’re going to be hosting both tournaments at the same time. This is something USA and USFA have teamed up with to help assist

both recreational play and tournament play, which has been in the making for several years. Our complex is the first to bring both organizations together.” The park also has the USFA National Invitational Tournament June 2325 and the MRPA softball North Mississippi Spring Classic on April 29-30. The park bid on the Mississippi Soccer Association north district soccer tournament for 2017 and didn’t get it, but Holloway said it has unofficially been awarded to Corinth for 2018. That tournament will bring in about 60 teams and requires 11 fields. Some of the baseball outfields will be set up for soccer to provide enough fields. Coordination among the region’s parks is part of the challenge in building a schedule. “Whether they participate in the same sanctioning body we do or not doesn’t really make any difference,” said Holloway. “It’s all about staying away from your sister city’s weekends and respecting that. If you go into war with them, instead of having 20 teams, you’re going to split 10 over there and 10 over here.” Communication among the region’s park leaders is frequent. “It is very important for us to all be on the same page since we all strive to provide the same services,” he said

Today in History Today is Saturday, March 11, the 70th day of 2017. There are 295 days left in the year. The Jewish holiday Purim begins at sunset. Daylight saving time returns Sunday at 2 a.m. local time; clocks go forward one hour.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 11, 1942, as Japanese forces continued to advance in the Pacific during World War II, U.S. Army Gen. Douglas MacArthur left the Philippines for Australia, where he vowed on March 20, “I shall return” — a promise he kept more than 2½ years later.

On this date: In 1861, the Constitution of the Confederate States of America was adopted by the Confederate Congress in Montgomery, Alabama. In 1867, the Giuseppe Verdi opera “Don Carlo” had its world premiere in Paris as a five-act French version titled “Don Carlos.” In 1888, the Blizzard of ‘88, also known as the “Great White Hurricane,” began inundating the northeastern United States, resulting in some 400 deaths. In 1927, New York City’s legendary Roxy Theatre held its grand opening; the evening featured the premiere of the silent film drama “The Love of Sunya,” starring Gloria Swanson, who was among the celebrities in attendance.

Booneville City adopts policy on speed bump requests BOONEVILLE — Booneville city leaders have adopted a new policy for residents seeking speed bumps on their streets. Under the policy approved by aldermen Tuesday, those asking the city to install bumps to control speeders on residential streets will be required to present a petition containing the signatures of at least 60 percent of the residents of both the street in question and the surrounding neighborhood. Mayor Derrick Blythe noted the board has approved several such requests recently and he’s begun receiving several more. He said they need to have a policy in place so they can be dealt with consistently. Ward 3 Alderman Mark McCoy expressed concern about the number of speed bumps added in some areas recently. While acknowledging efforts need to be made to control speeders, he said he believes too many can also create a safety hazard. McCoy said he feels the speed bumps installed on Davis Street recently are excessive, with too many too close together. Noting the street goes into Longwood Community Living Center, he said the bumps could make it difficult for ambulance, fire and other emergency responders to get to people quickly when responding to emergencies. “We have to worry about safety,” said McCoy.

now training officers to use the technology. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports that the city released a final copy of its body camera policy late Thursday afternoon. The policy states that officers wearing the cameras will be required to activate the recording mode during “any enforcement contact or call for service,” except for certain exceptions. The policy states that body cameras will be activated for traffic stops, field interviews, detentions and arrests. The policy forbids officers from intentionally obscuring the camera’s field of view.

Selmer Children urged to learn fire safety principles SELMER, Tenn. — The firesafe behavior and habits Tennessee children learn in school help keep them from harm while inside a school’s walls and sets the stage for a lifetime of fire safety awareness. The State Fire Marshal’s Office (SFMO) reminds school staff, students and parents of the importance of school fire safety planning and the SFMO’s inspections for code compliance. The fire codes for schools are designed to prevent fire deaths and injuries and, in many cases, are a direct response to a tragedy that occurred in our nation’s past. “Fire departments respond to an estimated 58 structure fires in educational facilities each year in Tennessee,” said State Fire Marshal and Commerce & Insurance Commissioner Julie Mix McPeak. “Our fire inspectors work closely with school administrators and local fire departments to help ensure that a school’s fire safety features are in working order and

Tennessee students and staff are trained to evacuate should a fire occur.” The SFMO recently released a school fire safety video resource that gives parents and educators a behind-the-scenes look at an inspection in order to offer insight into why inspections are a vital part of education. When SFMO fire inspectors visit a school, they check for the presence of important fire safety features. Some of the areas that are examined during the SFMO’s inspections include: ■ Doors and escape routes – Keep exit path widths open at least 48 inches. Exit doors must be easily recognized and shouldn’t be hidden with paint or decorations. Fire-rated doors cannot be held open, locked, or chained and must have latches. For the safety of the school’s occupants, unapproved security devices should not be added to classroom doors. Manually operated flush or surface bolts are not permitted. Only one motion is allowed to open the door, such as turning the door handle. There are many products available on the Internet that are not code compliant. These include devices that slide under doors, lock door closer arms, prevent doors from latching, and surface bolts that slide into the floor or wall. ■ Sources of electricity – Extension cords should not be used as permanent wiring, so schools should always consider available power sources when planning the classroom configuration. Be sure any power strip is UL-listed as an overload protector, and take care to always use appropriate wattage bulbs in any lamp. Do not leave any lamp, candle or space heater on and unattended. ■ Fire drills – Fire drills are

one of the most important safety measures a school can take and are also recommended for homes. Two fire drills are required within the first 30 days of the school year and a oncea-month drill is required during the rest of the school year. Practice makes perfect! This will reduce panic and injuries. In addition to the fire drills, at least three safety drills not requiring evacuation must be conducted during the school year. These can be earthquake, tornado, or security drills. It is also important that primary and secondary evacuation routes are identified in emergency operations plans. ■ Exit signs and emergency lights – Exit and emergency lights must be in good working order at all times. You can assist your school in reporting any non-functioning exit signs or emergency lights, or those in disrepair, to the appropriate school official. Nothing should obstruct visibility of these signs. ■ Sprinklers – Items should never hang from, or obscure, any fire sprinkler heads. Fire sprinklers should not show signs of corrosion or leakage; and if they do, it should be reported to the appropriate school authority. ■ Flammable artwork and teaching material – Fire codes limit the amount of wall space that can be covered to 20 percent, or 50 percent when the building has fire sprinklers. Fabrics or other flammable materials used as drapes also present fire risks. Such materials may be treated with a spray-on flame retardant. Remember, not all flame retardant applications last forever and must be reapplied periodically. Questions about school fire safety?

Corinth, Miss.

The perils of Jacksonian governance Upon taking office, President Donald Trump dusted off a portrait of Andrew Jackson and hung it above his desk in the Oval Office. He chose better than he knew. The most jaw-dropping furor of the early Trump administration — the Obama wiretapping allegation — was presaged in broad outline almost 200 years ago during Jackson’s presidency. Trump is Jacksonian not just in political sensibility but also in temperament, and that ulRich timately could determine the Lowry fate of his presidency. Still, it doesn’t have anything National Review on the Peggy Eaton affair. On the surface, the affair involved the picayune question of how a wife of one Cabinet member was treated by the wives of other Cabinet members. Yet it blighted the beginning of Jackson’s presidency, remade his Cabinet and affected subsequent presidential politics. Peggy Eaton was married to Jackson’s secretary of war, John Eaton. She was beautiful, impetuous and not popular with the other women in Washington society, who considered her of low character. The attacks on Peggy reminded Jackson of abuse directed at his late wife, Rachel, and he devoted himself entirely to her cause. In the ensuing contention, invitations to parties, gossip and petty snubs took on the highest political significance. Imagine “The Real Housewives of D.C.” — except with the president of the United States intimately involved in every brawl. Secretary of State Martin Van Buren deftly worked the politics of the affair to become a favorite of Jackson and set himself up to get elected as his successor, while Vice President John Calhoun — whose wife, Floride, was a Peggy antagonist — fell from favor. Jackson and Trump share qualities that invited their respective blowups. There’s the moodiness. Jackson biographer Jon Meacham describes him at one point as “grumpy and wounded, sensitive and wary of conspiracy.” Surely, that captures Trump’s mood when tweeting last Saturday morning, furious at the latest eruption of the Russian controversy. There’s the oppositional mindset. “Jackson believed,” Meacham writes, “the country was being controlled by a kind of congressionalfinancial-bureaucratic complex in which the needs and concerns of the unconnected were secondary to those who were on the inside.” This is a fair approximation of the “deep state” that Trump and his supporters believe is out to sabotage him. There’s the combativeness. Jackson viewed all conflict in military terms, and Trump is ever the “counterpuncher.” There’s the emphasis on loyalty. In the Eaton affair, Jackson couldn’t abide contradiction. Trump aides must defend the indefensible when the president goes off half-cocked, knowing every controversy is a loyalty test. There’s the backdrop of hostile polite opinion. Jackson’s critics considered him “unbalanced and dictatorial,” as Meacham puts it. Sound familiar? Finally, both Jackson and Trump viewed the controversies as a test of their legitimacy. Jackson saw the attacks on Peggy Eaton as a way to undermine his authority to pick whomever he pleased for his Cabinet. Jackson eventually found his way out of the Eaton affair, not through continued internal warfare but by deftly negotiating a turnover of his Cabinet. Similarly, Trump won’t punch his way out of the Russia story with wild allegations of his own, but by focusing on matters of greater public import. Jackson won two terms, and for all his faults demonstrated a deep love of country. The test for Trump is whether he can rein in his Jacksonian temperament enough to get out of his own way. In the meantime, just like the first time around, political observers will be agog. As John Quincy Adams noted when Jackson’s Cabinet turned over, “people stare — and laugh — and say, what next?”

Prayer for today Almighty God, help me to remember that “the power of character is the highest point of success,” and that thou hast put within reach of all the choice ideals of life. May I have the desire to cultivate strong purposes, and strive for high endeavors, that I may not aim for the low. Amen.

A verse to share Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. — Matthew 10:28

America’s high-risk complacent class “Most Americans don’t like change very much,” writes economist and Marginal Revolution blogger Tyler Cowen, “unless it is on terms that they manage and control.” That’s just one of many provocative sentences you can mine from the riches threaded through his new book, “The Complacent Class.” Don’t we think of ourselves as a nation of people on the move, always open to new opportunities and new evidence, willing to take chances? Don’t we constantly strive to better ourselves and to work with others to better our communities and our nation? Not so much anymore, answers Cowen. His argument that Americans have become more complacent of late draws on multiple previously unconnected statistics. One, which I’ve written about before, is that Americans just don’t move much these days. The descendants of immigrants and pioneers are increasingly content to just stay put. The interstate migration rate has fallen steadily for 30 years, to a point 51 percent below the 1948-71 average. This includes people in the Rust Belt, an area with slow or no job growth. When steel mills and coal mines closed down between 1979 and 1983, many residents moved to Texas or elsewhere. Laid-off autoworkers in Detroit bought

Michael Barone Columnist

the Sunday Houston Chronicle to look in the want ads (remember want ads?) for jobs. Now you can look for faraway jobs online, but few peo-

ple bother. One reason is that public policy discourages moving. Occupational licenses, increasingly required for jobs, don’t cross state lines. Disability payments, increasingly common, provide a base income for staying put. Environmental restrictions raise real estate prices in coastal cities beyond what others beyond can afford. All are intended to protect people, but they also lock them in. Another indication of complacency, Cowen argues, is that Americans increasingly prefer “matching” to striving. We look to associate with (and marry) like-minded people; we nestle increasingly in cocoon-like neighborhoods full of like-minded people. Technological change encourages this social stasis. It’s much easier to cocoon with the like-minded than in pre-internet days. Cowen cites Charles Murray’s 2012 book, “Coming Apart,” which describes how the highly educated and affluent are increasingly clustered in a few “SuperZips,”

insulated from those at the bottom of the education and income scale. As Cowen points out, the greatest segregation of the working class from the affluent occurs in places fond of political rhetoric decrying inequality -- in Manhattan and San Francisco, in college towns such as Ann Arbor and Chapel Hill. Business formation is another area in which Americans seem more and more complacent. Business startups have been declining for years, with the millennial generation lagging far behind its predecessors. Tech startups such as Google and Facebook have become behemoths, vacuuming up honors graduates of elite schools, much like Goldman Sachs. The monopolistic success of these institutions — together with their elite allies in government, media and universities — seems nonetheless not to have produced satisfying results for the general population. The perception of elite incompetence, indifference or hostility has been a major ingredient in the political success of Donald Trump. Similar trends are observable elsewhere. See James Kirchick’s “The End of Europe” and Michael Auslin’s “The End of the Asian Century.” Complacency, whether among the elite or the populace, breeds decline. It’s a problem foreseen,

180 years ago, by Alexis de Tocqueville, whom Cowen quotes as saying, “My fear is that (America and other new societies) will end up by being too unalterably fixed with the same institutions, prejudices, and mores, so that mankind will stop progressing and will dig itself in.” Cowen predicts that the complacent class “cannot hold” and that, yearning for stasis, it will be caught in a cycle of destabilizing change. We already have reason to understand how efforts to eliminate all risk turn out to be massively risky. Policies designed to make almost everyone a wealthaccumulating homeowner resulted in mass foreclosures, financial collapse and a nationwide recession. Anyone with arithmetic skills can see that pension and Social Security promises, supposedly guaranteeing income floors, will someday be broken. Over time, success breeds failure and accomplishment breeds complacency. The question is whether a complacent nation can learn to take the risks necessary to achieve success once again. Michael Barone is a senior political analyst for the Washington Examiner, resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and longtime co-author of The Almanac of American Politics.

Obamacare can’t be fixed The moment Republicans bought into the notion that Obamacare must not just be repealed but “replaced,” Democrats won. Democrats argue that health care is a “right.” Republicans claim they disagree, that nowhere in the Constitution does the federal government guarantee health care treatment or health care insurance. But Republicans’ behavior suggests otherwise. President Donald Trump, for example, says that in replacing Obamacare no one should be worse off; that insurance companies cannot decline those with pre-existing medical conditions; that insurance carriers must allow parents to keep their “children” on their insurance plans until the age of 26; and that insurance companies cannot drop people under any circumstances. Polls show that these are the most popular features of Obamacare. The “replacement” plan runs head-on against two principles of economics. Competition makes products and services better, cheaper and more accessible. And there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Health care — just like cars, sweaters and smartphones — is a commodity. But health care is one of our most regulated industries, a

far cry from a free-marketbased system. Start with the supply of doctors. Larry Because of Elder regulations, the supply of Columnist doctors has been artificially limited. Economist Milton Friedman once compared the American Medical Association to a medieval guild that shuts out would-be practitioners and artificially protects the wages of doctors. In a piece called “American Medical Association: The Strongest Trade Union in the U.S.A.,” Mark Perry, a professor of economics and finance at the University of Michigan and an American Enterprise Institute scholar, writes: “Between about 1970 and 1984, there was a significant increase in medical school graduates that pushed the number of new physicians from 4 per 100,000 Americans in 1970 to almost 7 per 100,000 by 1984. Since 1984, the number of medical school graduates has been relatively flat ... while the population has continued to grow, causing the number of new physicians per 100,000 population to decline to only 5.3 per

100,000 by 2008, the same ratio as back in 1974. Over the last few years the number of medical school graduates has increased slightly, and the ratio of graduates per 100,000 increased to 5.56 last year, the highest in a decade.” What’s wrong with this picture? An aging population, in need of more doctors, on a per capita basis, has fewer of them. Economics 101, supply and demand and plain common sense tell us the opposite should be happening. This is the argument Republicans should be making. The true replacement plan should be loosening regulations that prevent would-be doctors from entering the field, and prevent less-schooled and less-credentialed paraprofessionals from doing things that only licensed doctors can now do. We train battlefield medics in Iraq and Afghanistan to deal with battlefield trauma, saving countless lives. The Oscar-nominated film “Hacksaw Ridge” depicted the true story of a medic with aspirations of becoming a doctor, whom the army trained to treat battlefield injuries. But that man, had he returned stateside and tried to set up a practice to treat victims of urban gun violence, would have

been guilty of practicing medicine without a license. There are many examples. In some states midwives cannot legally deliver babies, despite ample evidence that they possess the experience and ability. In his joint address to Congress, Trump criticized the lengthy and expensive process of getting a drug approved by the FDA. We strangle the health care and insurance industries with regulations, licensure requirements and barriers to entry that artificially increase the cost of health care. We prevent people from buying health care across state lines. We advise developing countries to follow the wellworn path to prosperity — free markets, free trade, rule of law and property rights. Yet when it comes to nearly one-seventh of our economy — health care — we ignore our own advice. For health care, we don’t write ourselves the proper prescription.

‘Dancers’ hit dance floor tonight BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

Creating centerpieces and covering chairs, organizers are making a mad dash to prepare for tonight’s star-studded event. Complete with an unforgettable show, toe tapping music, familyfriendly fun and fellowship, “Dancing Like the Stars” will showcase the talents of local and area “Movers”, “Shakers”, “Businesses” and “Professionals” as they prove their skills on the dance floor. Presented by the Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi, the exciting dance-off will raise money for the Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi, which includes chapters in Corinth, Iuka, Booneville and Baldwyn. Based on the same concept as the wildly popular American dance competition television series “Dancing With the Stars,” the event will feature 17 couples from across the Crossroads as they compete for stardom. Held at 6 p.m. at the Crossroads Arena, the glamorous evening will also include a full-meal consisting of two vegetables, a dessert and a drink which will be served to members of the audience following the competition. Adding an extra element of fun to the show, spectators will have the ability to vote for their favorite contestants, all from the comfort of their tables. “We are so excited to bring ‘Dancing Like the Stars” to our community with the purpose of raising money for the Boys & Girls Club,” said Chairperson Mary Dilworth, president of the Corinth Boys & Girls Club Board and a member of the corporate board.

“Our interest is our children because they are our future and we are thrilled to be able to present an event which will be beneficial to them.” Embellished by sparkling crystal candle holders and flickering votives, each table will be decked out in a color scheme of black and white with an all-access view of the checked dance floor. Sponsored by the Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi and United Way, tickets for the show are still available, but are selling out fast. The cost to attend is $35 in advance or $40 at the door. Children under the age of 18 may attend at a cost of only $15 at the door. Monetary donations to the club will also be accepted. Filling the emcee roles, Corinth resident Eric Powell and Sandy Childs of the Gift community will serve as the Toastmaster and Toastmistress for the night. A mix of several musical genres, the dance numbers will include Latin styles like Salsa, Cha Cha, Bachata, Samba, Merengue and others. “We will have everything from Western to waltz,” said volunteer Beth Davis as she added ornamentation to a chair. “There will be a little bit of something for everyone.” Mixed by Corinth DJ Sugar Daddy John (John Owens), the music will take attendees on a journey that extends from the ’60s and ’70s up to today. “This has truly been a group effort and we hope it is a great success,” said Dilworth who wished to thank everyone involved for their efforts to make the evening special. “We want to express our sincere gratitude for our wonderful sponsors, our beautiful and talented dancers and the countless other individuals who contributed their

Critiquing the contestants, a panel of three out-of-town judges and one tie-breaker judge, also from outside the area will assess and make comments on each performance. Artistic Director Volante Jones of the Corinth Contemporary Arts Center has been working feverishly with the contestants to help prepare them for the competition and has even choreographed some of the routines. Audience members will recognize many if not all the competitors since, their friends, family members, neighbors and public officials will be joining in on the fun. Friendly faces will include people like former Corinth first lady Valerie Latch and her partner Patrol Officer Erin Hill, Brose Autoplex’s Alondes Guyton and his wife Sherika, and officer Fred Washington and his surprise partner in

crime. Miss Black Mississippi U.S. Ambassador 2017 TaNechi Temple will also make an appearance as will a representative for Miss Teen Mississippi. Adding to the festivities, a silent auction will be set up allowing guests to peruse the items and make bids at their leisure. Items up for grabs include, but are not limited to: a sports-themed print by the late Chig Biggers – a local character who was known for his print and caricatures, a Vera Bradley rose print throw, gift certificates to nice restaurants and a beautiful leather loveseat and couch. Following the competition, attendees will have an opportunity to dance the night away as they enjoy an after the show party and dance courtesy of DJ Sugar Daddy John at 9 p.m. The cost will be $10 per person for those who do not purchase a ticket for the show.

who dedicate their time and talents.” “Two years ago, we decided to include a youth group in the program,” he continued. “The participation by the children encourages friends and relatives to come out and take part.” This year’s youth groups will be the “Alcorn Baptist Youth Group” of Kossuth and “The Spiritual Travelers” of Ripley. Approximately 11/2 to two hours in duration, the concert is expected to draw somewhere between 250 to 300 people, not including the performers. “It is going to be a won-

derful event,” said Crayton who looks forward to the entertainment. “We have some outstanding groups that will be performing and hope to see everyone there.”

community, the Gospel Fest raises money to help support the many programs held at the Foundation, most notably the hot meals program for seniors and the summer day camp program for children.

Flying solo changes woman’s perspective on her life’s path D E A R ABBY: I have been with my boyfriend for two years. Until recently, we were insepaAbigail rable and loved his Van Buren Icompany. I got a job that Dear Abby required me to temporarily relocate and be on my own, so we saw each other only every other week. During that time, I gained a better understanding of who I am and how I want to spend my time. Since then, I have realized that my boyfriend and I may not be as compatible as I once thought. We discussed it, and he’s willing to do anything to make it work. But some things can’t be changed, such as his interests and small quirks he has. I’m having a hard time because I want to break things off, but then I worry that he could be “the one that got away.” Any advice would be appreciated. -- LOOKING FOR THE ONE DEAR LOOKING: As you have found, distance doesn’t always make the heart grow fonder. Keeping someone around not

because you’re crazy about him, but because you’re afraid if you don’t he will be the one who got away is NOT a reason to continue the relationship. Your breather has shown that he may not be “the one” after all. That’s a GOOD thing, and not something to be afraid of. So do the kind thing and let him go. That way he can find someone who loves him -- quirks and all -- and so can you. DEAR ABBY: My son “Jake” is headed to college in the fall, and I want his last year at home to be memorable and happy. He’s a good student and has been admitted to the college of his choice. The problem is, he can’t wake himself up in the morning. He switches off the alarm and goes back to sleep. I must go up to his room several times to wake him because he won’t get up the first time. Jake is otherwise independent. He does his own laundry and keeps his room spotless. I’m spending a large part of my savings on his tuition, and I’m worried that unless he can wake himself in the mornings, he won’t get to classes on time. I have tried talking to him about putting the alarm on “snooze” instead of turning it off, but nothing works. My husband suggests we pour

a glass of cold water on Jake’s face 10 minutes after the alarm goes off. Can you help us solve this problem? -- UP ALREADY IN NEW JERSEY DEAR UP: Although you may think your husband’s suggestion is harsh and inappropriate, it’s time you stopped coddling your son. The two of you need to sit him down and tell him that college is expensive, that if you and your husband are willing to go through the financial hardship of paying for it, he must wake up by himself and if he cannot manage to do that, he will have to pay for his own education. Perhaps that will get across to him that you are serious. DEAR READERS: While I’m on the subject of getting up in the morning, this is my annual reminder to those of you living where daylight saving time is observed: Don’t forget to turn your clocks forward one hour tonight at bedtime. Daylight saving time begins at 2 a.m. tomorrow. I love this ritual because it signals the coming of spring! 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). The perfect thing for you now is a system that allows you to operate freely within it -- even break out of it -- because you know it’s a loose guide and not a stone tablet gospel. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The key to being “on” in the moment when it matters may be in being “off” before it matters. All that you do to rest and recharge today will count toward next week’s success. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll deal with the difficult people again, because you’re often the only one in your group who can. Just remember, the loudmouths are usually trying to project a bigger sense of themselves to hide deep insecurities. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The meditator aims to master the mind by emptying it. Logically, it would seem that fewer thoughts would be easier to manage. Another, perhaps easier, way to have fewer thoughts will be to lose yourself in your favorite activity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s like you’re given a key today -- just one, but one is all you need. The same key will open the door to a few different opportunities, some of them most enjoyable, some terrible. So go with caution, testing things out along the way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you think you understand but don’t really, it’s worse than knowing you’re clueless. The latter is an invitation for learning, the former an invitation for mistakes. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stick too close to the tradition, routine or plan and the result will have less life in it than the zingy unpredictability of your inspired whims. Surround yourself with people who get this. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The Zen proverb says, “The wild geese do not intend to cast their reflections. The water has no mind to receive their images.” Unintended validation, beauty and grace will be part of your day.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). In all matters of life, from choosing a mate to choosing a teacher (home-repair person, tour guide, babysitter or any role at all that needs filling in your life), what matters is not that it’s a perfect match but that it’s a good fit. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). No matter how much money a person has, there will always be options that cost more. So don’t wish for wealth as you face today’s financial decisions; wish for wisdom. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To seek “the” truth may be a waste of the day, as there are thousands of informational bits to sort through, held together by only the most tenuous threads of the stuff. Instead seek “your” truth (also difficult, but less so). PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your fortunes will be augmented when you are sweet to your family for an hour, unless you are too busy: Then your fortunes will be augmented when you are sweet to your family for two hours.

I’ve been trying to get answers from her, but she hasn’t been giving me straight ones. She keeps telling me that it wasn’t my fault, but I still think it was. I want to get back with her, but she is now ignoring my texts. I guess my question is: Should I try to make things right and get back together, or should I move on and forget her? — Heartbroken Dear Heartbroken: I’m so sorry you’re hurting. Breakups are never easy, and it can be especially frustrating when you’re not getting straight answers, because you feel that if you just knew why, you could either fix it or at least have closure. But the truth is that nothing she could say would give you real closure. The only thing that will give you that is time. Although I know it doesn’t feel like it now, you’ll be OK again one day in the not-so-distant future. Losing someone who doesn’t want to be with you is actually a gain because you can make space for someone who does want to be with you.

Dear Annie Dear Annie: A friend and I are planning a high tea for a group of friends. We plan for it to be formal and have three courses. Would it be OK and proper to tell the ladies, in their invitations, that there is a charge? — Tea Party Planners Dear Tea Party: Not only is it perfectly fine manners to let them know the cost in advance but it would be perfectly bad manners not to. Have a lovely teatime. Dear Annie: This is in response to the letter from “In a Quandary in PA.” She was ready to put her house up for sale and debating whether to try moving in with her boyfriend or to move closer to her daughter (who is an hour away). Her gentleman friend said he’s content with his beer, pack of smokes and alone time. You advised her to give him an ultimatum about moving in together and to move closer to her daughter if she doesn’t get the answer she’s looking for. If I were her, I would definitely skip the ultimatum and just move forward with putting the

house up for sale. If she gave the ultimatum and he “caved,” she could move in with him, but she would always have a nagging feeling that he only did it out of pressure and not because he really loved her and wanted to spend time with her. Plus, men respond poorly to ultimatums, and she could save herself the heartache of rejection by not trying that. Once she puts her house up for sale, he may beg her not to leave and say he wants to live with her. In that case, she would know he’s a keeper, and they could figure out their living arrangements. If he doesn’t resist the move and instead just wishes her well, she’ll know she made the right choice not to stick around for his sake. Please, no ultimatums! — Knows Better Dear Knows: Another reader wrote in that if you have to make an ultimatum, you already have your answer. I feel that’s true 90 percent of the time, but there are times when ultimatums organically arise and are warranted. I’d also like to add that they should be made only when you really mean them and intend to follow through. Empty ultimatums stink of desperation.

Braves slip past Warriors BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

It was billed as a game that could come down to the final at bat at that’s exactly what it turned out to be as Corinth hosted Tishomingo County Friday night in a game that was moved due to a wet field at TCHS. Tishomingo County 4 Corinth 3 The Braves were already down one starter as primary ace pitcher and regular shortstop Ty James was sidelined with a broken bone in his throwing hand. Then early in Friday night’s game, Tishomingo County’s second ace Logan Tally was lost with a broken foot, suffered as he slid into second base early in a game in which he started on the mound.

Meanwhile, Corinth ace Kyle Crigger just kept throwing strikes and hoping his teammates could provide the run support he needed to earn the win. And despite eight Warrior errors, it nearly happened. The Braves scored a run in the top of the first as the result of one of those eight errors as Conner Bonds scored from third after a Crigger pitch got away from the catcher. Tish pushed another run across the plate in the top of the third to take a 2-0 lead. But Corinth answered with their first run of the game in the bottom of the third to cut the lead in half. The Tribe finally grabbed the lead after scoring twice in the bottom of the sixth to make it a 3-2 game.

But the Braves got to Crigger in the top of the seventh and loaded the bases before CHS reliever Jackson Lancaster took over and surrendered two runs to hand the lead back to TCHS. Needing at least one run in their last at bat to extend the game, Tishomingo County reliever Brady Anglin did his job and held the Warriors scoreless to secure the win. JC Basketball (Region 23 Men’s Championship Game) Jones 91 Northeast 88 Northeast and Jones met for the second time in seven days with a title on the line. Last week it was for the MACJC state championship but this time it was for much larger stakes as the winner would head to Hutchinson,

Kansas for the national tournament while the loser headed home. Coach Cord Wright’s Tigers were defeated soundly last week but this game was a much different story. Although the Bobcats built a 49-40 halftime advantage, Northeast fought their way back and came within a whisper of winning. But Shunn “Shaq” Buchanan’s three-pointer at the buzzer bounced off the rim and the Tigers season ended in heartbreak as they fell 91-88. It was the second consecutive Region 23 championship game appearance for the Tigers. They beat East Mississippi last year to earn a trip to Kansas. This year they came up three points short.

Despite eight errors, three in the first inning, Corinth had a chance to win in the seventh but allowed two Braves runners to cross the plate and failed to score themselves in the bottom half of the inning. The Warriors lost a 4-3 heartbreaker in the Division 1-4A matchup.

Parkinson pitches gem in Rebels’ win over Furman Ole Miss Sports Information

OXFORD — Behind David Parkinson’s 8.0 scoreless innings of one-hit baseball, No. 14 Ole Miss produced a shutout for the second time this week in a 2-0 victory over Furman. The Rebel starting pitcher faced the minimum Friday night, keeping the Paladins (8-5) hitless through the first seven innings. Parkinson (3-1) struck out a career-high nine hitters and did not issue a walk during his longest outing as a Rebel. The Henrico, Virginia, native had a no hitter intact until a leadoff single to center in the eighth inning,

but the Furman baserunner was wiped off the bases on a groundball double play. Will Stokes completed the shutout for Ole Miss (9-5), earning his fourth save of the season and 14th of his career to move into sole possession of sixth on the Ole Miss all-time saves list. At the plate, sophomore Ryan Olenek matched his career high with three of the Rebels’ six hits. Tate Blackman added an RBI single, while Will Golsan and Grae Kessinger scored the two Ole Miss runs. The Rebels recorded all six hits off highlytouted prospect Will Gaddis

(1-2). The Furman starter lasted 7.0 innings, allowing two runs (one earned) and tallying six strikeouts. Olenek was the first to get the bats going for the Rebels with a single to right field in the bottom of the first. The night didn’t stop there for the center fielder as he put the bat to work with a double in the bottom of the third to bring in Ole Miss’ first run of the game with the help of an error by the Paladins. With the hit-and-run on, Golsan motored around the bases from first in what appeared would put two runners in scoring position;

however, Olenek’s liner went under the right fielder’s glove and rolled to the wall, allowing Golsan to cross the plate. In his fourth start of the season, Parkinson started the night with a strikeout in the first, two in the second and built from there to finish with his total of nine. He hit the leadoff batter to start the fourth inning, but catcher Cooper Johnson threw out the runner on a failed hitand-run attempt. Parkinson cruised from there, retiring the next 11 batters he faced. Please see REBELS | 9

Pilkington fans 13 as Bulldogs beat South Alabama Mississippi State Sports Information

STARKVILLE — Sophomore left-hander Konnor Pilkington continued to grow into the role of Friday night starter for the Mississippi State baseball team. Pilkington struck out a career high 13 in 7.2 innings of work and the bullpen took it from there as MSU beat South Alabama 2-0 Friday night at Dudy Noble Field.

“I am so glad that Konnor is on our team,” head coach Andy Cannizaro said. “He showed again tonight that he has what it takes to be a Friday night starter in the Southeastern Conference. He was really outstanding the whole night. Trysten (Barlow) and Spencer (Price) took it from there. “South Alabama has an outstanding offensive team. We matched that tonight

with some really good pitching. I am glad to see things happening for Konnor like this.” The Bulldogs (8-6) snapped a two-game losing streak by doing enough on offense to support the outstanding pitching. Pilkington (2-2), Barlow and Price (third save) combined on a four-hitter with 15 strikeouts. “(South Alabama pitcher senior left-hander Thomas)

Huston kept us off-balanced for eight innings,” Cannizaro said. “He was filling the zone with his change-up pitch. Fortunately, we got that run early. We really needed a win. We needed to bounce back.” MSU scored single runs in the first and sixth innings and made that stand up for its first shutout of the season. The Bulldogs manufacPlease see BULLDOGS | 9

Arkansas Razorbacks edges Ole Miss in SEC tournament The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Manuale Watkins drove for a layup with 1:28 left to put Arkansas ahead, and the Razorbacks held off Mississippi 73-72 on Friday night in the Southeastern Conference Tournament quarterfinals. Third-seeded Arkansas (24-8) has won seven of eight and will play Vanderbilt, a 72-62 overtime winner over No. 17 Florida, in Saturday’s semifinals.

Watkins’ layup made it 71-70, and Daryl Macon hit two free throws with 23.8 seconds left to pad Arkansas’ lead. The Razorbacks needed every point as the Rebels took and missed a flurry of shots in the final 10 seconds before Justas Furmanavicius’ layup just before the buzzer. Officials reviewed the play before ruling the game over. No. 6 seed Mississippi (2013) snapped a two-game winning streak.

Macon finished with 17 points, including 9 of 10 at the free throw line. Jaylen Barford and Dusty Hannahs each added 13. Terence Davis led Ole Miss with 26 points. This was the first time these teams have played in the SEC tournament, and they turned in a doozy after Arkansas routed Ole Miss 98-80 on Feb. 18. Ole Miss, fresh off beating hapless Missouri in the

Rebels’ tournament opener, jumped out to a 17-8 lead on a 3-pointer by Davis. After that, neither team led by more than six in a game featuring 13 ties, including 4040 at halftime, along with 12 lead changes. Breein Tyree gave Ole Miss its last lead at 70-69 with a 3-pointer with 1:47 to go. The Rebels didn’t score again until a layup that was too little Please see EDGES | 9

and too late. With Moses Kingsley helping harass Sebastian Saiz, the Ole Miss senior who was the SEC’s only player to average a double-double this season into just nine points and 17 rebounds. Deandre Burnett added 16 points, and Tyree had 13 for Ole Miss.

Big picture Ole Miss: The Rebels, who lead both the SEC and the nation with the most made free throws, just couldn’t get to the line enough with Saiz. He was just 1 of 2 at the line. They also didn’t help themselves from 3-point range, missing their first five in the second half trying to match the speedy

Razorbacks up and down the court. They finished 1 of 10 beyond the arc in the second half and 8 of 28 for the game despite outrebounding Arkansas 49-39. Arkansas: The Razorbacks already had their sights set on their second NCAA Tournament berth in three seasons for the first time in nine seasons. They improved to 23-24 in this tournament and now are a win away from playing in the title game for the second time in three years.

Ole Miss doubled its lead with a run in the fifth. Kessinger walked before back-to-back base hits by Olenek and Blackman scored the freshman to make it a 2-0 game. Colby Bortles took one for the team on his next at-bat, loading the bases and giving the Rebels a chance to blow the game wide open. However, a groundout got Furman out of the frame trailing by only two. Parkinson’s no hitter was broken up in the top of the eighth when Furman first baseman Brandon Elmy singled to center. Despite the no-no out of the question, the southpaw completed the inning by retiring the next two hitters. He finished the eighth by forcing a

5-4-3 double play to cap his scoreless outing and help Ole Miss maintain the two-run advantage. Stokes entered the game in at the top of the ninth and quickly found himself with two runners on and no outs. However, the Ole Miss closer persevered with the help of the Rebels infield. After Stokes recorded a strikeout on a failed bunt attempt by Furman, Bortles snagged a liner at third and caught the runner at second off the bag. Rocketing the ball back to second, Blackman covered the bag to turn the double play and preserve the shutout. Ole Miss will look to clinch the series tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. as Brady Feigl takes the hill to square off against the Paladins.

tured a run in the first inning. Jake Mangum singled and Luke Alexander walked. Ryan Gridley followed with a sacrifice bunt. Mangum scored on a groundout by Brent Rooker. In the sixth inning, Rooker was hit by a pitch. Elijah MacNamee followed with a single. This time Cody Brown had the critical sacrifice

bunt. Dustin Skelton hit the ground ball producing the run. “Right we now have to be creative on offense,” Cannizaro said. “We played the bunting game well. We were able to do enough.” The Bulldogs finished with six hits. Rooker had multiple hits. Huston (01) struck out six, while pitching a complete game for the Jaguars (86).

Kroger’s smaller basket? A more than 13-year streak of growth for Kroger has ended, signaling the pressures facing the grocery industry. The operator of Ralphs, Fred Meyer and other grocery chains said sales slipped 0.7 percent at stores open at least 15 months for the quarter ended Jan. 28. That was the first time the figure declined since 2003, and the company acknowledged the competition it is facing. In addition to groceries becoming available in a growing number of places, falling food costs have made it easier for rivals to try and steal customers with deals. Kroger noted that it’s investing in improving the customer experience in its stores and keeping prices competitive.

Growth slows: The grocery chain operator is retooling to try and gain back market share.

“We definitely believe the next five (years) will be more competitive than the last five because only the strong survive,” Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen said. McMullen said he didn’t have any evidence that the company is losing to online purchases, but noted rivals including Wal-Mart were improving their store operations. JP Morgan analyst Ken Goldman noted that Ahold Delhaize, Wal-Mart and Publix posted stronger results than Kroger, and that it is “becoming increasingly likely that the company is losing overall market share.” For 2017, Kroger is forecasting sales at established locations to be flat to up 1 percent.

Another rate hike?

Home construction

The Federal Reserve is scheduled to deliver an update on its economic policy on Wednesday. The remarks will follow a two-day meeting of the central bank’s policymakers. Ahead of the meeting, Fed Chair Janet Yellen has signaled that the central bank would likely elect to resume raising its key interest rate, citing a strengthening job market and inflation. Yellen also noted that the Fed expects additional rate increases this year.

New government data on residential construction should provide insight into the state of the new-home market. The Commerce Department is expected to report on Thursday that builders broke ground on new single-family homes and apartments at a faster pace in February than in the previous month.

Ability Works makes candles, builds hope BY SLIM SMITH The Commercial Dispatch

COLUMBUS — Gary Baldwin sat on a low stool, carefully applying labels to glass-encased candles, the final step in the production process at the Ability Works facility located on Datco Industrial Road in east Columbus. An outside observer might immediately conclude that Baldwin is stuck in a low-paying, tedious, numbingly boring job. That is not the way Baldwin views it, however. “This right here,” he said serenely, “is one of the best things that has ever happened to me.” For most of his 34 years, Baldwin has been in custody of one sort or another. “I was in (Department of Human Services) custody as far back as I can remember,” he said. “I grew up in Palmer Home and pretty much went straight from there to Department of Corrections — Parchman, Greene County, over in Alabama. I was in and out, mainly for drugs.” Things began to change last year. That was the year he finally confronted his drug addiction. It was also the year he became a dad. “He’s 51/2 months old,” Baldwin said of his son. “That changed everything. All the sudden, the things I saw before, I saw in a totally different way. It’s hard to explain.” Faced with the all-toopredictable path of drug addiction, Baldwin took the first cautious step in another direction. With the help “of people I didn’t even know,” Baldwin was admitted to the Pines at Cady Hill, a residential drug treatment center last summer. In a few months, he hopes to move to Last House on

the Block, a transitional living facility for men who are recovering addicts. Late last year, Pines referred him to Ability Works. For Baldwin, it is perhaps the biggest step of all. “I’d had some jobs before, but never for very long,” he said. “They were either temporary jobs or the drugs got in the way. This is different. I can tell.” Where the workers are clients At Ability Works, Baldwin is both a worker and a client, one of seven people currently employed at the facility. The Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services (MDRS) operates 16 such facilities throughout the state. While the facilities range from factory work to janitorial services, the mission is the same — to provide job training for people with disabilities with the goal of helping them join or return to the workforce. “Our clients have a variety of disabilities, whether it is physical, cognitive, emotional or drug addiction,” said Chris Howard, executive director of MDRS. “We also serve transitional age training for students that are leaving high school but don’t plan to go to college. We also have internships, so if a client wants to pursue a specific job, we can place them in a private company that provides that kind of work.” The program provides counseling, mentoring and evaluations for a host of job-related topics — everything from learning how to fill out job applications and employment paperwork to adapting to the workplace environment, interacting with employees and supervisors. It also helps clients develop good work habits

— attitude, punctuality, job proficiency. But it is in the factory setting that those lessons go from theory to practice. The client/workers perform real jobs for real customers. Deadlines and expectations are the same as they are in the conventional working world. “Really, what we do here is determine who is job-ready, who has the potential to hold a job,” said Steve Newell, who has been production manager at Ability Works since it opened in Columbus in 1997. “We’re there to encourage them and train them and evaluate their progress, but at the end of the day, it’s a job. They have to meet that standard.” Howard said the program provides training to 16,000 people annually. About 5,000 of those move into private sector jobs within 90 days, with many more eventually finding outside jobs. “They make great employees,” Howard said. “When they get a job, they’re happy to have it. They’re not looking for another job as soon as they walk in. I really think it’s been a great success in getting an underserved population into the workforce.” Private sector support For all their efforts, facilities such as Ability Works could not succeed without the support of the private sector. Real work requires real customers. Over the years, Ability Works has provided production support for all kinds of private sector clients — from product assembly to packaging. Currently, Ability Works has just one contract, although it has space for more. “On average, we’ll have four contracts a year,” said Ability Works facil-

ity manager Michelle Bell. “How many clients we can provide jobs for depends on the contract. Like any business, we negotiate contracts and business owners want to make sure working with us makes sense for them. That means we keep those costs low enough for it to work.” While the current contract, with Grassroots Natural Candle Co., requires just seven workers, Bell said some contracts require as many as 40. The more contracts, the more people the program can help, so the emphasis on reaching out to the private sectors is an important part of the equation. “That’s my whole job,” said Hardy Mitchell, who is responsible for business development outreach in the area. “The big thing for me is identifying companies who could benefit from what we do. I feel like if I can get my foot in the door, that’s the biggest step. We offer high-quality, competitive services, and companies can be eligible for tax breaks, too. So I really have something very attractive to sell.” Ability ‘works’ for candle-maker If Mitchell ever needed to provide a testimonial to help make his pitch, he could like find none better than that of Chris Lick. Lick started Grassroots Natural Candle Co. five years ago on the second floor of a building in downtown Columbus. After a couple of years, he faced the kind of a problem business owners are happy to accept: Demand for his candles outpaced the company’s ability to supply them. “We are in 1,000 stores in 38 states,” Lick said. “We really had outgrown our place downtown.” Lick sought other options that would allow

him to meet the demands of his growing business and came across a post on Facebook about Ability Works. He was intrigued. “I have a 4-year-old who has special needs, so that part of its resonated with me because they work with an underserved part of the community,” he said. But his interest was not confined to sentiment. The more he thought about it, the more sense it began to make. After talking with Ability Works officials, he committed to something of a trial run — contracting with Ability Works to put the labels on the candles last fall. Satisfied with their performance, Lick made the big move in January, shifting the entire candlemaking production to the facility. “To say it has exceeded all expectations is an understatement,” Lick said. “It’s been incredible, far beyond our wildest imagination. The order we are sending out Friday to Home Good is 6,000 units. We did that in a week. That’s something we could never, every have done before. We could probably have done 3,000 units in a month in our old place. Now, if we get an order for 10,000 candles, it’s like, ‘no problem.’ I’d say conservatively, we could make 50,000 candles a month here.” ‘I feel like I can make it’ In his two decades working closely with disabled clients, Newell said one lesson has emerged beyond all others. “You know, when I first started here, I realized that everybody that stepped through that door was different in some way, with different challenges and abilities and things they needed to work on,” he said. “At first, you want to make

judgments about them based on those things. But I learned pretty quick not to judge a book by its cover. Some of the people I thought were going to be real problems and would never be able to succeed turned out to be my best workers.” Newell paused and looked over to where Baldwin was applying labels to candles. “That guy right there, he’s as good an example as any,” Newell said. “I thought he might be trouble, might have an attitude problem. I should have known. He’s one of the best we’ve ever had.” Unaware of the compliment he has just been paid, Baldwin continued his work. “I never really was taught any real skills, coming up,” he said. “When you spend as much time in custody as I have, you learn skills, but they’re only the kind of skills that get you back in custody. Here, it’s different. I’m learning things all the time, all kinds of things. “Before I came here, I didn’t know how to fill out a W-2 form,” he added. “One job I had, I think I checked 11 deductions. I didn’t know what I was supposed to do. But here, they show you. I think my taxes will be in a lot better shape this time.” But there is something else, something of far greater value, Baldwin says he has learned even through the simple task of sticking labels on candles. “I never really thought I could do anything, really,” he said. “I didn’t have much hope. Now, it’s different. I’ve just gotten so much positive reinforcement, and I never had much of that before, either. For the first time, really, I feel like I can make it. I can’t even tell you how good that feels.”

Mississippi musician moves from liner notes to headliner BY BILLY WATKINS The Clarion-Ledger

RIDGELAND — It was just before Christmas, two years ago, and musician Jerry Puckett had just finished playing an hour-long gig at a nursing home in the metro Jackson area. One of the residents approached Puckett’s wife, Anna. “Do you mind if I hug his neck?” she asked. With Anna’s blessing, she did. Then another resident hugged him. “I looked up and a line was forming, just to give me a hug,” Puckett recalls. “I remember one woman came up — this has really stuck with me — and she said, ‘When are you coming back to play for us? You know, we don’t have a lot to look forward to.’ Man, that went straight to my heart. “Every one of those women who hugged my neck said, ‘Thank you for coming to play for us.’ That’s a real humbling thing when you realize something as simple as playing a few songs for people can mean that much to them.” Twice a month, Puckett performs at The Orchard, a retirement community in Ridgeland. It’s a paying gig, but that is not the main reason Puckett does it. “The Orchard is my favorite place to play,” he says. “I go there with the intention of lifting their spirits, and they always

wind up lifting mine. I love those people. I love watching them enjoy music.” Glenda Green, 80, who has lived at The Orchard for six months, never misses a Puckett appearance. “I enjoy watching the mood of the crowd. It’s interesting to me,” she says. “We start off quiet, but as soon as he starts playing, the smiles start appearing around the room. And then you can see all us old ladies getting into it.” Green smiles. “You know, I have a big crush on him. I told his wife,” she says. “I don’t know a lot about playing the guitar, but he looks like a pretty skilled musician to me.” Yes, he is. ‘He can hear 2 fleas’ Puckett, a 77-year-old Madison resident, has recorded and performed with some of music’s bona fide heavyweights. A graduate of Pearl High School, Puckett rode a bus to Los Angeles in 1962, and wound up replacing Glen Campbell as guitarist in the rock and roll group The Champs, known for the No. 1 hit “Tequila.” One of his bandmates was James Seals, who would later form the hit-making duo Seals & Crofts. While in California, Puckett often jammed with Campbell at nightclubs along the Sunset Strip. He also played

with Campbell on some of Ricky Nelson’s albums. Puckett returned to Mississippi in the late 1960s and took a job as a session musician with Malaco Records in Jackson. In May 1970, he played on two songs that would help change the direction of R&B at the time: “Groove Me” by King Floyd and “Mr. Big Stuff” by Jean Knight. He played on Paul Simon’s “There Goes Rhymin’ Simon” album, named by Billboard Magazine as one of the top 500 rock albums of all time. “Paul Simon was interesting,” Puckett says. “He wanted the tape running constantly. He wanted everything recorded, even the conversations between songs. “And he changed guitar strings every 30 minutes. He said they lost their sound after that long. Me? I changed about every two or three days.” In the 1980s, Puckett gave vocal lessons to a young girl who lived just across the Mississippi-Louisiana state line but attended school at Parklane Academy in McComb. That was Britney Spears. As Willie Nelson prepared to record his album “Remember Me, Vol. 1,” Nashville producer James Stroud hired Puckett to play guitar on the sessions “Keith Richards (of the Rolling Stones) would’ve

done it, but I didn’t need Keith Richards,” Stroud told The Clarion-Ledger at the time. “I needed Jerry Puckett. A lot of these records have intricate chord changes, beautiful melodies. They’re tough to play. So I chose Jerry.” Puckett played on Tim McGraw’s 1995 hit “I Like It, I Love It.” Puckett also wrote and performed radio and TV commercial jingles that have been stuck in our heads for years. Example: “Nobody cares like the Car Care Clinic, for your automobile!” One of Puckett’s unique talents involves his ears. As bass player Raphael Semmes of Jackson once said, “He can hear two fleas walking across a dog’s back and tell you if one of their legs is shorter than the other.” Puckett used those sensitive ears to became one of Nashville’s “vocal tuners,” meaning he would listen to songs before they were published and make sure the vocals were perfectly on key. If he heard a note that was slightly flat or sharp, he would help correct it by computer. Puckett “voice tuned” McGraw’s 1995 album “All I Want,” which sold more than 3 million copies and featured five top 5 hits.

‘Just in Time’ Puckett has empathy for residents of The Or-

chard. He’s three years shy of 80, and he’s had his share of health scares. In 1991, he suffered a heart attack that caused him to decrease his work schedule and reflect on his life. In January 2008, he underwent a quadruple bypass. He released an album through Malaco in June 2016, the first of a twoalbum contract. “I named it ‘Just In Time’ — as in, I’m doing this just in time before the Lord might call me home,” says Puckett, who plays guitar in the Raphael Semmes Trio each Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Table 100 in Flowood. “That’s one thing that motivates me. I’ve been blessed, accumulated a fair share of knowledge of music over the years. I want to share that knowledge and my gift of playing as long as I can. “One of the ways I can do that is by playing for the folks at The Orchard.” “He’s a big hit around here,” says Judy Lee, who coordinates The Orchard’s events calendar. “We’ll usually have about 26 to 30 attend. And after he’s done playing, there will be two or three or four women go up and talk to him. He’ll stand there and talk as long as they want. He never seems rushed.” Puckett has about 100 songs for which he has recorded the backing tracks: “Everything they

hear, every instrument, I played it,” he says. The songs are a smorgasbord of genres and mood changers. Among them: Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me to the Moon,” Patti Page’s “Tennessee Waltz,” Willie Nelson’s “Remember Me,” Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs’ “Salty Dog Blues.” “You can tell when the ladies recognize a tune,” says Mary Rose Moore, 87, who has lived at The Orchard for eight months. “They might not catch it right at first, but once they do they’ll go to smiling.” One favorite is the Creedence Clearwater Revival hit “Proud Mary.” “That song makes me want to dance,” Green says, “and I don’t even know how to dance. But when he gets to the ‘rollin’ on the river’ part, we’ll start rolling our arms. That one is always a lot of fun.” But the one song residents expect to hear every time is the Oak Ridge Boys’ “Elvira.” “They sing real strong to that one,” Puckett says. “They’ll sing and dance right there in their chairs. I mean they get down. It’s just one of those songs that always makes you feel good to hear. “I love knowing that it’s coming up because I know I’m about to see a room full of happy people, who a lot of times don’t have a lot to smile about.”

4-year-old girl takes flight amid high winds in Cleveland area Associated Press

LYNDHURST, Ohio — High winds that blew through the Cleveland area knocked a little girl off her

feet, literally. Brittany Gardner, posted a video on Facebook of her 4-year-old daughter, Madison, opening

the storm door to a home on Wednesday only to be blown off the steps. She is seen desperately clinging to the door handle while

her mom runs to her rescue. Gardner tells WJW-TV that Madison held on to the door handle until she

came to take her down. She says her little girl “is totally OK.” The mom had some fun with it, setting her Face-

book video to the tune of Frank Sinatra’s “Come Fly With Me.” It had been viewed more than 300,000 times as of early Friday.
