Forecast calls for severe thunderstorms BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Today’s forecast for the Crossroads area includes another strong risk of thunderstorms and possible tornadoes. The severe-weather risk is moderate — the second-highest classification from the Storm
Prediction Center. Forecasters said they expect “an active severe weather event” today in an area stretching from New Orleans to Cincinnati with the biggest risk for severe storms in northern Mississippi and western Tennessee. Local certified storm chaser
Aaron Canaday said the first round of weaker storms will hit in the early morning hours today. “The second round will hit the area in the afternoon and offer a much greater chance of tornadoes and severe weather,” said Canaday, who is a member of the Corinth-based Mississip-

IUKA — If anyone wants to question the power of faith, they can look to author and speaker Marolyn Ford because she was literally blind and now can see. Marolyn Ford, noted author of “These Blind Eyes Now See” gave her testimony at a luncheon hosted Tuesday by Rhonda and Lauren Nunley of Pray Pottery and held at Cafe Memories. Ford’s story is one that is well-known to many who have attended one of her speaking engagements over the years. Her testimony regarding the miracles in her life has had an impact. Attendees dined on a meal of lasagna, salad, and peach cobbler and listened to the soft strains of the live music provided by violinist Nina Bradford. Pastor Mickey Trammel of Tate Baptist Church, who led the opening prayer for the event, said he and Ford had been friends for many years. “I was not always a Christian,” said Trammel. “I heard her testimony when I was a teenager and it stayed with me.” Years later he was saved and became a pastor. He called Ford and told her how her testimony had affected his life. She came and gave her testimony at his little congregation at the time and they have been friends ever since.
BY ZACK STEEN FARMINGTON — The City of Farmington is doing something municipalities rarely do. For one day only, officials are allowing relic hunters to metal detect on city property. It’s the idea behind the city’s latest fundraiser, Finders Keepers. “We had so many calls asking us to allow metal detecting on the new park property, so the Board of Alderman decided to do it for one day only as a park fundraiser,” said City Clerk Debbie Jackson. “Now people are going crazy. They are really excited to get this opportunity.”

Luncheon organizer Linda Brigance speaks with author and speaker Marolyn Ford regarding Ford’s book, “These Blind Eyes Now See” and her CD. Ford related her story to the group and began with what laid the foundation for the faith she shows so readily — her upbringing. She grew up in a Christian home on a farm in Michigan. Prayers were said before every meal and they attended church at every opportunity. Secular music was not allowed in their
home. If there was a radio on, it had to be tuned in to a Christian station. She said she began as a child learning to speak with God. She accepted her Lord Jesus and was saved at the age of nine, she shared.

People of the Crossroads JoAnne Tyes, Corinth JoAnne Tyes knows about “lookin’ good.” The 1985 Corinth High School graduate opened the Looking Good Beauty Salon at 506 Cruise Street in 1993. “I like making women feel good and look good,” said Tyes. “I like seeing people around the community that I’ve done their hair.” She also enjoys doing makeup for events such as proms and weddings. As a youngster, she liked to style hair for her mother and her friends, and she decided she wanted to be a beautician. She has been a Girl Scout leader for seven years and sings in the choir at Little Zion Missionary Baptist Church. She has two daughters, Tetra and Tamara, and her husband of 26 years is Sammy.
Relic hunters and metal detecting enthusiasts will be allowed to hunt for buried treasure on the proposed park site on Saturday only. Jackson said a permit is required to hunt. “People can purchase a permit on Thursday or Friday at city hall,” she said. “Cost is $10 with all funds going back to support the park.” The permit is non-transferable, and is required by anyone entering the property, including children accompanying adults. “Items found can be kept by the hunter or donated to the

“That was my first miracle,� said Ford. “The miracle of salvation.� Ford had such a close relationship with her Lord. She spoke to him in prayer often. Her favorite place to pray was under the clothesline in the yard. She said she would speak to God while looking out at the vast Michigan farmland. She said the Lord put it in her heart that she would be a pastor’s wife one day. At that age, she was not excited about the notion and started to find another spot in which to pray. She said she finally accepted the idea and began to pray for that future husband. “I prayed every day for my husband since I was 12,� said Ford. She prayed for all the characteristics she wanted in her life partner. At the age of 18, she was working as a secretary at a shop in Holland, Mich., when she suddenly began to have trouble seeing. Eventually, she lost her sight altogether. She first was taken to the eye specialists at the medical center in Ann Arbor,
Mich., then eventually the Mayo Clinic. Finally, a doctor at the Mayo Clinic told her what was wrong. “The doctor told me ‘You have juvenile macular degeneration and you will be blind for the rest of your life. You must go home and learn to live with it,’� she said. “My whole life just crumbled at my feet.� In her darkest hour, when she thought she would never further her education, or find someone to love her with her blindness, she prayed to God and she heard a song: “His Eye is on the Sparrow.� The words of the song helped remind her that God cared for her. A Bible verse also came to mind, she said. She quoted I Peter 5:7: “Casting all your cares upon Him, for He careth for you.� She said she realized one doesn’t just speak out their troubles to God and then leave it alone. She pointed out faith is an act of will. She said the Lord put it on her heart to go back to school. She went to Temple schools in Chattanooga, Tenn., and used a tape recorder and oral
exams to get her education. She met Acie Ford, her future husband, right away. She said she knew when she shook his hand that he was the one God had sent for her. “Of course,â€? she said to the audience, with characteristic humor, “I didn’t tell him I thought that at the time. I was afraid he’d run away. Who wants to marry a blind girl?â€? The couple married and she said Acie Ford had all the characteristics she had asked for. They had a daughter and Ford expressed it was diďŹƒcult to do everything with the challenges of being blind. She was a pastor’s wife and a mother. It took longer for her to do even the most simple of tasks, such as ironing her husband’s shirts. One night after a birthday celebration, she had gone to bed and Acie knelt by the bed and said a simple prayer for his wife’s healing. Ford said when her husband finished the prayer, she opened her eyes and was face to face with her husband, whose face she had never seen before that moment. She said they jumped up and down
and praised the Lord and were up half the night praising and expressing gratitude to God. At one point her husband said, “Do you realize we are standing on holy ground?� This was Ford’s second miracle. It was years later, after a fall which shattered a vertebra in her back, that Ford said she began to have symptoms of a digestive failure which gradually became worse until she could no longer swallow and had to be fed through a tube. She grew weaker and was in and out of the hospital with infections. She said she had to learn to deal with her fear. “I kept praying for healing, but who gets more than two fantastic miracles?� she asked. Again, as before in her life scripture and music helped her. A song helped bolster her spirit and inspire her during her illness. The song was “Leave it There.� She thought she was going to die. She said she was ready to die. Her husband said one last prayer, a simple prayer of healing. It was not long after when

Gradually, she began to take in nourishment and regain her strength. This was Ford’s third miracle. Overall, the author’s testimony was one of a life immersed in faith and learning to seek comfort in God’s word and in music intended to glorify God. In her darkest moments, she said she was sent a song or scripture that helped remind her God was with her and He cared for her. Linda Brigance, who helped organize the luncheon, said the speaking
engagement was one her Bible study group had wanted to do. She said one of the other organizers had wistfully said, “I wish Marolyn Ford could come.� Brigance said she knew Ford was living in Michigan again and would not be able to attend. She received a call the next day from Ford, advising her that she was coming to the area for a visit and the speaking engagement was scheduled.

Local/Region Across the Region
Booneville
Today is Thursday, March 30, the 89th day of 2017. There are 276 days left in the year.
Tourism tax bill goes to governor BOONEVILLE — Booneville residents are a step closer to voting on a proposed tourism tax for the city. A compromise bill authorizing an election on the proposal was approved this week by the state House and Senate and was awaiting the signature of Gov. Phil Bryant at press time. Sen. J.P. Wilemon and Rep. Tracy Arnold both introduced versions of the bill in their respective houses and after going through the conference process in which members of both chambers work out differences between bills, the Senate bill was approved by the House in an amended form which was then approved by the senate, placing the bill on the governor’s desk for final approval. Once the bill is approved by the governor, Booneville aldermen must adopt a resolution declaring their intent to levy the tax and calling for an election on the issue to be held on June 6 in conjunction with the city municipal general election. Sixty percent of those voting in the election must vote in favor of the tax for it to take effect. If approved by voters, the tax would add a 2 percent additional charge on motels and hotels and on food purchased in restaurants. The bill requires the funds generated by the tax to be used “to promote tourism and parks and recreation in the city.” Mayor Derrick Blythe said Tuesday he’s thrilled about the passage of the bill and continues to believe the tax can make a positive impact on the city. He said residents should have the right to vote on the issue and he’s glad to see them being given that chance to make their voices heard.
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 30, 1867, U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward reached agreement with Russia to purchase the territory of Alaska for $7.2 million (the rough equivalent of $125 million today), a deal ridiculed by critics as “Seward’s Folly.”
On this date: In 1959, a narrowly divided U.S. Supreme Court, in Bartkus v. Illinois, ruled that a conviction in state court following an acquittal in federal court for the same crime did not constitute double jeopardy. In 1964, John Glenn withdrew from the Ohio race for the U.S. Senate because of injuries suffered in a fall. In 1975, as the Vietnam War neared its end, Communist forces occupied the city of Da Nang. James Ruppert, 41, killed 11 members of his family at his mother’s home in Hamilton, Ohio, on Easter Sunday. In 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot and seriously injured outside a Washington, D.C., hotel by John W. Hinckley, Jr.; also wounded were White House press secretary James Brady, Secret Service agent Timothy McCarthy and a District of Columbia police officer, Thomas Delahanty.

Funds from the tax must be kept separate from the city’s general fund and cannot be spent on payment of any legal fees or on salaries. The bill also requires all records of revenue and expenditures from the funds generated by the tax to be audited each year by an independent certified public accountant other than the one who audits the city’s general fund. The report of the audit must be provided to the city as well as to each member of the state House of Representatives and Senate representing the city.
Selmer Aldermen approve gas rate decrease (This first appeared in the Independent Appeal and is being reprinted with permission.) SELMER, Tenn. Selmer Utility Department customers will see a decrease in their natural gas bill. The Selmer Mayor and Board of Aldermen approved the Purchase Gas Adjustment rate structure during its recent meeting. The measure will lower gas rates 25 percent across the board. “Customers should notice a change on their bills in April,” said Selmer Mayor John Smith. “This is going to benefit residents as well as businesses.” SUD recently completed a $1 million expansion project throughout parts of McNairy County. “We are always looking for ways to better serve our customers,” said Smith. “The expansion will give us the potential to add another 300 customers.” Customers were charged $11 for natural gates under the old rate, according to public works director Richard Ashe. A 25 percent decrease will
see bills dropped under $9. “We are entrusted with providing our customers gas at the best price,” said Ashe. “It’s a win-win for both our residents and industries.” Industries who use natural gas in their manufacturing process will experience the biggest savings because of the amount they use, according to Ashe. “Industries use gas all year long,” he said. “Hopefully, more businesses will be attracted to the area as they learn how competitive we are with other departments around.” Ashe said rates could possibly drop another three to four percent in the future. Selmer buys its natural gas through the Tennessee Energy Acquisition Corporation. Currently, SUD provides around 1,740 customers with natural gas. The 300 potential customers due to expansion could push the number of customers to over 2,000. “I would like to cover the entire county, but we can’t right now,” said Ashe. New customers will have to pay a $300 gas tap fee along with a $20 service charge to get connected. SUD will run a line from the road to around 200-500 feet to the homes of new customers.

Tupelo Attorney fees go to judge for payment TUPELO — Attorneys defending the city against a wrongful death suit filed by the family of Antwun “Ronnie” Shumpert have produced a bill for $3,086 in expenses that Shumpert family attorney Carlos Moore may have to pay, reported the Daily Journal. U.S. Magistrate Judge David Sanders agreed last week to sanction Moore over his failure to respond in a timely fashion to discovery requests by attorneys representing the city of Tupelo. During the discovery process of a civil action, both the defendants and plaintiffs are entitled to demand from each other certain statements, documents and records that may be relevant to the case. The civil discovery process is broader than during a criminal case. A court must now review the expenses submitted by the firm Mitchell, McNutt and Sams, which is representing the city of Tupelo. According to that firm, that approximately $3,000 bill represents the expenses incurred earlier this year when attorneys with Mitchell, McNutt and Sams filed a series of motions seeking to compel the delinquent discovery responses.

Emperor with no close Just a few thoughts about the Emperor with no close on his deal, as he struts about playing a new blame game: Donald Trump is no more about helping working people than a stork is an obstetrician. Rheta You think you have no voice Johnson until you find it. One percent of our populaColumnist tion is called “the 1 percent” because 99 percent of the rest of us are not billionaires. When someone rails against the Affordable Care Act, nine times out of 10 it is someone who has health insurance, including members of Congress. The thick smoke from the recent election’s Russian connection has to be coming from a fire, possibly Trump’s pants. Hillary was pilloried long ago for saying she wasn’t standing by her man. Oh, yes. Where is Melania? Huey P. Long of Louisiana was considered by some to be a potential dictator, but the Kingfish at least built public schools and hospitals, paved rural roads, provided free text books and generally improved the lot of the poor. Trump is considered by some to be a potential dictator, and he has floating plans to cut corporate taxes, rape the environment, jail his election opponent and build a wall. “Fake news” is any report unfavorable to the administration. “Real news” is whatever lowlife Steve Bannon says it is. And there ain’t no kind of news till the fat bully tweets. Paul Ryan rolled over like a mangy dog that needs a belly scratch. Ditto Ted Cruz. Women marched lawfully and peacefully for a variety of causes, among them the right not to be grabbed by a septuagenarian with a foul mouth and orange hair. A budget that asks for billions of dollars to build a wall and inflates defense at the expense of all else paints a picture of Trump as Hagar the Horrible -- pouring hot oil on invaders from a castle turret. Trump claimed Barack Obama tapped his golden tower but the validity of that tweet was undermined by the Leader of the Free World’s misspelling of “tap.” Trump once claimed Obama was not born in the United States, the validity of which was undermined by a birth certificate. As millions of Americans prepare to bite the bullet and pay their income taxes, the president refuses to share his returns and brags about years of nonpayment, which, he says, makes him superior. Stalwart American allies like Great Britain, Australia and Germany are insulted by Trump, who must have another entire slate of friends in mind. The world thinks we have lost our mind, but, hey, who needs the rest of the world? Kellyanne Conway, high heels on the Oval Office sofa, creator of the term “alternative facts” and the fantasy massacre in Bowling Green, Kentucky, gets her own Secret Service code name. First daughter Ivanka gets her own White House office. Right-wing talk-show host Sean Hannity, who began his career on the air mocking black guests in Athens, Alabama, now helps create policy. The new Trump health care plan is to kill Obamacare by neglect, same basic plan as national health care for Americans before Obama. The solution to this mess: Make America READ Again. Rheta Grimsley Johnson’s most recent book is “Hank Hung the Moon ... And Warmed Our Cold, Cold Hearts.” Comments are welcomed at rhetagrimsley@aol.com.
Prayer for today Almighty God, make me conscious of my weaknesses, and make me ashamed of my indulgences. Give me a victory over self; and may I consider more what I put in my life. May I be eager for that which will inspire me for greater aspirations. Amen.

The Freedom Caucus is today’s abolitionists The House Freedom Caucus and its chairman, North Carolina Republican Congressman Mark Meadows, are taking flak, many saying they are responsible for the failure to pass the American Health Care Act. With all other Republicans on board, a big assumption, the votes of the 29 members of the Freedom Caucus could have made the difference in passing the legislation. But they refused to support it. Should they be chastised as obstructionists? Are they childish idealists who don’t grasp that politics is about the “art of the deal”? Some go beyond suggesting that these conservatives are naive. They accuse them of being sinister, opposing the AHCA to receive fundraising from right-wing zealots and ideologues. I say not only is this unfair criticism, but that the conservative stalwarts of the Freedom Caucus are American patriots deserving high praise. Let’s first appreciate that dealmaking in business and dealmaking in politics and governing are not the same thing. Business deals
are about one thing -- money. A businessman determines his bottom line. If the deal he Star c o n s t r u c t s Parker doesn’t meet it, he walks. Columnist Although certainly there are critical economic implications to a political deal, these considerations don’t define the essence of the exercise. The essence of the political deal is about the nature and meaning of the society in which we live. There was a lot of dealmaking in the founding of the American republic and the construction of our Constitution. One of the most famous and consequential “deals” was the accommodation in the U.S. Constitution of slavery and the slave trade. Arguably, without this accommodation, there would have been no deal. However, the irony of the accommodation of slavery in a nation founded on the ideals of human freedom speaks for itself. Regardless of how one
chooses to look at what happened, what is clear is that a dear moral and human price was paid for making this deal, culminating in a civil war in which 620,000 Americans died at the hands of their own brothers. And the repercussions are still felt today. The accommodation of slavery in the founding states then lead to further deals trying to find ways to accommodate slavery in new territories that entered the union. All along there were abolitionists. Those who refused to accept any “deal” that accommodated slavery in existing or new states entering the union. Many viewed the abolitionists as extremists, fanatics who refused to accept compromise that would permit slavery in America. Abraham Lincoln started off as gradualist on slavery, but ultimately clarified his view that on slavery there was no “deal,” no compromise. In his famous “House Divided” speech, he said, “I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. ... It will become all one thing
or all the other.” The Freedom Caucus members are today’s abolitionists. They see, rightly, how far America has drifted from its blueprint of freedom, and the grave consequences of this fiscally, morally and existentially. Our health care system was already broken before Obamacare was passed. The factors causing escalation of health care insurance premiums and health care expenditures are because of structural defects in the system, created by government, which precludes it from operating as an efficient market. The American Health Care Act made improvements in Obamacare. But these core structural problems were left intact. The legitimate point of the Freedom Caucus is that there is no deal on right and wrong, no compromises on our ideals of freedom. We must fight for these ideals because ultimately we will wind up being either all free or all socialist. Star Parker is an author and president of CURE, Center for Urban Renewal and Education.

Did the Republicans win by losing? Did the Freedom Caucus just pull the Republican Party back off the ledge, before it jumped to its death? A case can be made for that. Before the American Health Care Act, aka “Ryancare,” was pulled off the House floor Friday, it enjoyed the support of 17 percent of Americans. Had it passed, it faced an Antietam in the GOP Senate, and probable defeat. Had it survived there, to be signed by President Trump, it would have meant 14 million Americans losing their health insurance in 2018. First among the losers would have been white working-class folks who delivered the Rust Belt states to President Trump. So, who are the losers here? First and foremost, Speaker Paul Ryan and House Republicans who, having voted 50 times over seven years to repeal Obamacare, we learned, had no consensus plan ready to replace it. Moreover, they put a bill on the floor many had not read, and for which they did not have the votes. More than a defeat, this was a humiliation. For the foreseeable future, a Republican Congress and president will coexist with a health care regime that both loathe but cannot together

repeal and replace. Moreover, this defeat suggests that, given the ideologiPatrick cal divide Buchanan in the GOP, and the Columnist unanimous opposition of congressional Democrats, the most impressive GOP majorities since the 1920s may be impotent to enact any major complicated or complex legislation. Friday’s failure appears to be another milestone in the decline and fall of Congress, which the Constitution, in Article I, anoints as our first branch of government. Through the last century, Congress has steadily surrendered its powers, with feeble resistance, to presidents, the Supreme Court, the Federal Reserve, the regulatory agencies, even the bureaucracy. The long retreat goes on. Another truth was reconfirmed Friday. Once an entitlement program has been created with millions of beneficiaries, it becomes almost impossible to repeal. As Ronald Reagan said, “A government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth.” Nor did President Trump escape unscathed.
Among the reasons he was elected was the popular belief, which carried him through scrapes that would have sunk other candidates, that, whatever his faults or failings, he was a doer, a man of action -- “He gets things done!” To have failed on his first big presidential project has thus been an occasion of merriment for the boobirds in the Beltway bleachers. Yet, still, Trump’s Saturday tweet -- “Obamacare will explode and we will all get together and piece together a great healthcare plan ... Do not worry!” -may prove prophetic. Now that “Trumpcare” or “Ryancare” is gone, the nation must live with Obamacare. A Democratic program from birth, it is visibly failing. And Democrats now own it again, as not one Democrat was there to help reform it. After what he sees as a wonderful win, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer now intends to block a Senate vote on Judge Neil Gorsuch for the Supreme Court, and thus force Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to muster 60 votes to halt a Democratic filibuster. Should Schumer persist, Senate Republicans will exercise the “nuclear option,” i.e., change the rules to al-

low debate to be cut off with 51 votes, and then elevate Gorsuch with their own slim majority. Why would Schumer squander his political capital by denying a quality candidate like Judge Gorsuch a vote? Does he also think that a collapsing Obamacare will be an asset for his imperiled colleagues in 2018? The last time Democrats headed down that Radical Road and nominated George McGovern, they lost 49 states. This humiliation of Obamacare reform may prove a watershed for the Trump presidency. What he is saying is simple and direct: I am a Republican president who wants to work with Republicans. But if they cannot or will not work with me, I will find another partner with whom to form coalitions to write the laws and enact the reforms America needs, because, in the last analysis, while party unity is desirable, the agenda I was elected to enact is critical. The health care defeat yet may prove to be another example of winning by losing. Patrick J.

Fire department donates vehicle to AC&TC BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
An old Corinth Fire Department vehicle will help aspiring law and public safety students learn needed skills. The Corinth FD donated a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria for the Alcorn Career & Technology Center’s Law and Public Safety class. “We can use the car in many ways,” said instructor Reggie Anderson. “I think the students will enjoy most getting to use the car to learn the proper procedures to conduct traffic stops. It will be more hands-on for the
students, and they will be more engaged in the learning process.” The new course, now in its second year, is a twoyear program for students who want to pursue a career in law enforcement, firefighting, paramedic or the military. “The Law & Public Safety class is also good for students that might want to become an attorney because we research Mississippi law and have courtroom scenarios,” said Anderson. The class recently visited the Corinth Fire Department, where Training Officer Jerry Whirley
talked about the history of the department and the roles, duties and responsibilities. Students learned about the department’s 24-hour work shifts and the daily variety of the job. Students Prentiss Turner and Nick Strachan both enjoyed the visit to the fire department and said they might consider the career. “I greatly appreciate the Corinth Fire Department for donating the car,” said student Shianna Lokey. “It means a lot that they want to help us.” Anderson expressed

Capital city could get subsidy for water, roads JACKSON — Mississippi government would spend millions of dollars a year to subsidize infrastructure in central parts of Jackson, if Gov. Phil Bryant approves. Senators and representatives on Wednesday passed a final version of House Bill 1226 . It would divert some sales tax revenue from state coffers to be spent in Jackson beginning July 1, 2018. Jackson city leaders have long argued that state government should pay more to aid the capital city because state properties are exempt from property taxes, but the city is required to provide services. The measure is projected to provide about $11 million a year by 2021. State government would decide what projects it would be spent on. A version of the bill failed on the last day of the 2016 session.
Residents sentenced in health care case HATTIESBURG — Two Mississippi residents have been sentenced to prison terms for their role in a health care fraud case. Acting U.S. Attorney Harold Brittain, in a news release Tuesday, said 60-year-old Larry Jenkins and 61-year-old Annie Jenkins, both of Stringer, were sentenced last week by U.S. District Judge Keith Starrett. Larry Jenkins received a 37-month sentence for making a false statement relating to a health care matter. Annie Jenkins was sentenced to 13 months for knowing about the false statement but failing to notify authorities. Both defendants also were ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $223,594 to the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services. The couple owned and operated Available Medical Supplies, Inc., a business that provided medical equipment and compounded inhalation drugs in the Laurel, Mississippi area.
Controversial Medicaid audit bill moves ahead
Legislature ends with budgets unfinished BY JEFF AMY AND EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi would hire a contractor to audit Medicaid, welfare and food stamp recipients to make sure they’re not cheating the programs, under a bill passing the House and Senate. House Bill 1090 was held for more debate after passing the Senate Wednesday, but is likely headed to Gov. Phil Bryant for his approval or veto. It authorizes the state’s Medicaid division to hire a private contractor to verify recipients’ eligibility. It will verify recipients’ in-state residence, identities and income levels. It also requires non-disabled recipients to be working and tracks where recipients spend money. Democrats argue that the bill is being pushed by a profit-seeking private contractor. Several Democrats noted that sponsors have no numbers estimating the amount of fraud. Republicans maintain that the bill will reduce government spending.
Wrong-way driver dies in crash with 18-wheeler OCEAN SPRINGS, — Authorities say a wrong-way driver has been killed after crashing into an 18-wheeler in Jackson County. The Sun Herald reports that Mississippi Highway Patrol officials say 52-year-old Sarah Elizabeth Reaves died in the wreck early Wednesday morning. Highway patrol spokesman Chase Elkins says Reaves was traveling the wrong way on Interstate 10 when she hit the truck head-on. Jackson County Deputy Coroner Jason Moody says Reaves was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the truck and a passenger had minor injuries. Elkins says the truck caught on fire shortly after the crash. Clean-up crews worked to remove debris from the roadway. The crash remains under investigation.
JACKSON — The Mississippi Legislature ended its 2017 regular session Wednesday, but will have to return later to pass budgets for the attorney general’s office and the Department of Transportation. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant will decide the start date for a special session and set the agenda. The new budget year begins July 1. Spending proposals for transportation and the attorney general died because of disputes before a deadline late Monday. The House and Senate wrapped up their other work Wednesday, four days before the scheduled end of the three-
month session. “I think you can go home and be proud of what you did this semester,” Speaker Philip Gunn, a Republican from Clinton, told the House. Just before leaving the Capitol, House members said farewell to longtime Republican Rep. Mark Formby of Picayune. He is leaving the Legislature to join the three-member Workers Compensation Commission — a post to which he was nominated by the governor and confirmed by the Senate. “I’ve learned that you and I are way more alike than we are different,” Formby told his legislative colleagues. Legislators passed a few final bills Wednesday, including House Bill 1046 , which will
allow students with dyslexia to keep receiving state money through 12th grade to attend private schools. Under the current program, students can only get state money to attend through sixth grade at a handful of special private schools for children with learning disabilities that are accredited by the state. Lawmakers had considered expanding the program to allow students to attend more private schools, and to take state aid to schools located outside Mississippi. But House and Senate negotiators stripped those provisions out while settling on the final bill. The Mississippi Department of Education said 160 children statewide currently get the aid.

Ex-Christie aides get prison for bridge plot BY DAVID PORTER Associated Press
NEWARK, N.J. — Two former aides to Gov. Chris Christie were sentenced to prison Wednesday for creating a colossal traffic jam at the George Washington Bridge for political revenge, a scandal that sank Christie’s White House campaign and was attributed by the judge to a venomous climate inside state government. Bill Baroni, Christie’s appointee to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, was sentenced to two years in prison, and Bridget Kelly, Christie’s former deputy chief of staff, was sentenced to 18 months at separate hearings in the 2013 lane-closing case. Both must also serve 500 hours of community service. U.S. District Judge Susan Wigenton said it was clear there was never a legitimate traffic study, as they claimed during the trial, and said the defendants sought to mislead the jury with their testimony. During Kelly’s portion of the hearing, Wigenton also blamed the culture in Trenton, the state capital. Trial testimony described angry tirades by the governor and detailed his subordinates using the Port Authority as a source of political
favors for politicians whose endorsements they sought. Christie was not charged with any wrongdoing in the federal case. State prosecutors have declined to pursue a citizen’s criminal complaint lodged against him, but questions remain over how much he knew about the plot. His version of events — that he was not aware that anyone in his office was involved until months after the fact — was contradicted by testimony from multiple people. The scandal derailed Christie’s presidential aspirations and likely cost him a chance to be President Donald Trump’s running mate. He has turned his attention in his final year in office to addressing the state’s opioid epidemic. The target of the traffic jams, Democratic Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich, had declined to endorse Christie for re-election in 2013. It was his town near the bridge that suffered four days of paralyzing gridlock when access lanes were realigned. “It was completely intended to wreak havoc,” Wigenton told the 45-year-old Baroni. “It only served a punitive purpose. You clearly knew, and know today, that it was not” legitimate.
Referring to New Jersey politics, Wigenton told the 44-year-old Kelly that she “got caught up in a culture and an environment that lost its way.” “It’s very clear the culture in Trenton was ‘you’re either with us or you’re not,’” she said. Kelly and Baroni were convicted in November of all counts against them, including wire fraud, conspiracy and misusing the bridge for improper purposes. The government’s star witness, David Wildstein, testified that he and the co-defendants sought to retaliate against Sokolich. Text messages and emails produced at trial showed Sokolich’s increasingly desperate pleas for help being ignored. Kelly, who sent the infamous “time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee” email, wiped her eyes with a tissue and apologized, saying she never intended to cause harm. Assistant U.S. Attorney Vikas Khanna called her the “impetus behind the crime,” but outside the courthouse, a defiant Kelly promised that “the fight is far from over.” “I will not allow myself to be the scapegoat in this case and I look very much forward to the appeal,” she said.

ARE YOU TOO BAD TO BE SAVED ? Over the years, I have listened to folks who talk as though they are too “bad” to be saved. “Oh, if I go into a church building the roof will fall in,” says one. Another says, “You don’t know all the bad things I’ve done in my life.” These and similar phrases suggest that we believe we are “out of reach” of God’s saving power because of our past. Let’s take a look at what the Bible says. Consider first, the case of those who heard Peter’s sermon on Pentecost. In Acts 2: 23 he levied this charge at his hearers. Speaking of Jesus he said: ”ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain.” When they asked what to do in order to be saved, he instructed them to repent and be baptized. When they obeyed, they were added to the church. (Acts 2:36-47) In the next chapter, the record says he told his hearers this: “Ye denied the Holy One and Just, and desired a murder to be granted unto you; and killed the Prince of life…” (Acts 3:14, 15a) He then told them to “repent and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.” (Acts 3:19). Among the very first converts to Christianity were those who had crucified Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God. Except in the sense that the sins of all mankind crucified him, you didn’t kill Him. In addition, consider the case of Paul as told in his own words in I Timothy 1: 13. “Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.” Have you tried to destroy Christianity as Paul did? The case of the Corinthians, as recorded in I Corinthians 6 tells us they had been fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, effeminate, abusers of themselves with mankind, thieves, drunkards, and extortioners. Now look at what the text says about them. “And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” Notice the kind of sins they had committed. We think of them as “whoppers” don’t we? But then look at the words washed, sanctified, and justified in reference to their changed (converted) state. If they could be cleansed by the blood of Jesus, so can you! Are you worse than any of these? “They that are whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.” (Matthew 9:12) We invite you to study and worship with us at Danville.

BY JILL COLVIN Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is vowing to step up efforts to combat the nation’s opioid addiction crisis, and he’s tapped New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to lead the fight. Trump convened an emotional roundtable Wednesday with Christie, members of his Cabinet, law enforcement chiefs, recovering addicts and advocates. It was the first public event tied to the launch of a new addiction commission that Christie, a longtime Trump friend and formal rival, will chair. Trump listened intently as Vanessa Vitolo and AJ Solomon, two recovering addicts from New Jersey, described their harrowing battles with substance abuse. Both became hooked on prescription pain killers, and quickly transitioned to heroin. Trump also heard from a mother whose son died from an overdose after a long battle with addition. Her son, Trump told the
mother, hadn’t died in vain. “We want to help those who have become so badly addicted. Drug abuse has become a crippling problem throughout the United States,” said Trump, citing statistics that show drug overdose is now the leading cause of accidental death in the country. “This is a total epidemic and I think it’s probably, almost un-talked about compared to the severity that we’re witnessing.” Christie, a longtime friend of the president, headed Trump’s presidential transition before he was unceremoniously replaced by incoming Vice President Mike Pence in the days after the election due to disagreements over its direction. While the governor has long maintained that he plans to complete his last year in office before moving to the private sector, speculation remains that he is eyeing a top job in the administration, and people close to him have said he is open to potentially joining it one day.
Poll: Americans dislike GOP’s, Trump’s plan on health care Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Note to President Donald Trump and House Republicans: People really don’t like your approach to overhauling America’s health care. If you’re hoping to revive the effort, you may want to try something different. Sixty-two percent of Americans turned thumbs down on Trump’s handling of health care during the initial weeks of his presidency, according to a poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research released Wednesday. It was his worst rating among seven issues the poll tested, including the economy, foreign policy and immigration. Of six changes the failed House GOP bill would have made to President Barack Obama’s law, five drew more negative than positive reviews. An overwhelming 8 in 10 opposed the Republican proposal to let insurers boost premiums on older people. Seven in 10 disapproved of premium surcharges for people whose coverage lapses. By wide margins, people also disliked proposed cuts in Medicaid, which helps
lower-earning people cover medical costs, a halt in federal payments to Planned Parenthood and a transformation of the Obama law’s subsidies — based on income and premium costs — into aid linked to age. “His campaign promise was great health care for everyone, for all Americans at great prices,” said Raymond Brown, 64, a Republican and retired truck driver from Rio Grande, New Jersey. “He isn’t fulfilling his campaign promise.” Overall, just over half in the poll said they worry many Americans would have lost coverage had the GOP bill become law. Would their own families and average Americans have been better or worse off? More said worse. The results underscore that annulling Obama’s statute is not an issue to be trifled with. More people support than oppose that law by 45 percent to 38 percent, a slightly narrower margin than in January. And a slender majority say covering all Americans is a federal responsibility — a view embraced by Democrats but not Republicans, who instead focus on access and lower premiums.
Christie told The Associated Press earlier Wednesday that he has “no interest in having a permanent role” in the Trump administration at this time, but that he was happy to spearhead the anti-drug effort. Christie has made the issue of addiction a centerpiece of his administration and spoke extensively about it during his own presidential bid. He has dedicated his final year in office to addressing the drug crisis. Last month, he signed legislation that limits first-time opioid prescriptions to five days’ worth of drugs and requires state-regulated health insurers to cover at least six months of substance abuse treatment. “This issue causes enormous pain and destruction to everyday families in every state in this country,” said Christie, who has been working behind the scenes with White House officials since shortly after Trump’s inauguration. Trump promised dur-
ing his campaign to stop drugs from “pouring” into the country, and said the new group would work with local officials, law enforcement, medical professionals and addicts to improve treatment options, prevent people from getting hooked in the first place and stop the flow of drugs across the border. “Drug cartels have spread their deadly industry across our nation, and the availability of cheap narcotics — ...some of it comes in cheaper than candy — has devastated our communities,” he said. But critics say that Trump’s actions as president so far undermine his rhetoric. The failed GOP “Obamacare” replacement bill that Trump pushed to pass sought to end the Medicaid expansion, which provides substance abuse and mental health treatment. It also would have stripped requirements that insurance plans provide the services as “essential” benefits.
Release of videos made by anti-abortion group barred Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — A federal appeals court on Wednesday barred the release of videos made by an anti-abortion group whose leaders are facing felony charges in California accusing them of recording people without permission in violation of state law. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court ruling blocking the recordings made by the Center for Medical Progress at meetings of the National Abortion Federation, an association of abortion providers. The Center for Medical Progress previously released several secretly recorded videos that it says show Planned Parenthood employees selling fetal tissue for profit, which is illegal. Planned Parenthood said the videos were deceptively edited to support false claims. The videos stoked the American abortion debate when they were released in 2015 and increased Congressional heat against Planned Parenthood that has yet to subside.
It’s not clear what’s on the bulk of the recordings the group made at National Abortion Federation meetings. A leader of the Center for Medical Progress, David Daleiden, said in a statement that the 9th Circuit was preventing the release of footage of Planned Parenthood leadership discussing criminal conduct at the meetings and its ruling was an attack on the First Amendment. The 9th Circuit noted in its decision that U.S. District Judge William Orrick had reviewed the National Abortion Federation footage and found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing. The court affirmed the judge’s decision that the Center for Medical Progress waived any First Amendment right to release the videos by signing confidentiality agreements with the federation that barred recordings of its meetings or the disclosure of any information obtained there. The National Abortion Federation argued that release of the videos would endanger its members.

Graciousness is key to the art of accepting a compliment D E A R ABBY: I’m a young man in my mid-20s, and I have a deeper voice than my statAbigail ure would sugVan Buren typically gest. C l o s e Dear Abby friends even get thrown off when I talk to them if they haven’t seen me in a while. I’m fairly happy with it, and people often ask if I do radio or voice acting. I run into problems, though, when strangers comment on it. If someone says, “Wow, has anyone ever told you that you have a great voice?” or something of that nature, my first impulse is to make a joke about it. If I’m not quick enough on my feet, however, I often catch myself saying something like, “Yeah, I get that a lot,” or, “I know,” both of which sound egotistical, and I feel embarrassed afterward. Is there a way to acknowledge the compliment that doesn’t come off so pretentious? -- NOT QUICK ON MY FEET DEAR NOT QUICK: Yes, accept the compliment graciously by saying, “Thank you.”
DEAR ABBY: My husband has been sick and unable to work for several years due to a debilitating illness. He has been home taking care of the kids while I have been working full time. We have lost everything because of the financial burden of his illness. I am very grateful to my parents for helping us financially during this tough time. Unfortunately, I believe some of my family think my husband is faking his illness. This is hurtful since they have known him for a long time (we’ve been married 12 years). My sister recently asked him in a rather nasty way why he doesn’t just go get a job, and I’m beginning to think that my parents share her sentiment. He already feels guilty and worthless for not being able to provide for our family. It’s coming to the point where I just want to get away from them and cut off contact. Should I address the issue or just let it go? -- SICK IN THE SOUTH DEAR SICK: By all means address the issue. What your sister did was both cruel and out of line. Ask your parents if those are their sentiments as well, because you are concerned they might be.
If they are having doubts about your husband’s physical problems, offer to share medical information that proves his health problems are all too real. Because your parents have been helping out financially, it might help to clear the air. DEAR ABBY: My son just got some devastating news. He found out that the son he has raised for 20 years isn’t his. We will always love the young man regardless. The thing is, how do we help our son to overcome losing a child we all thought was his? -- HEARTBROKEN IN TEXAS DEAR HEARTBROKEN: Regardless of who contributed the sperm that fertilized the egg that became your grandson, the person your son raised IS his son. The bond is there. Your son is the only father he has ever known. If you move forward from there and don’t deviate from that path, you should all be able to deal with this in a positive manner. 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). Fun? You’re game! The world seems to sense this about you and will offer opportunities to practice the spectrum of mirth -- grinning, laughing, hooting, hollering and dancing ... it’s all in the offering. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your work will only be as good as you can make it right now. So don’t worry about how it measures up. That part is out of your hands. Just do your work until you come to the end of your fear and inhibitions. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll attract people who want to help you, align with you or simply keep your company on this part of the journey. You can accomplish the same without these potential partners, but it won’t be nearly as easy or fun. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Though your idea may start the action today, what happens because of this isn’t really about you. There are niches to be filled, and as people fall into position, lives will change.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). For whatever reason, it may be the wrong time to let the others know what you really think -- at least not everything. It’s the right time, however, to start moving instinctively and privately toward your ideas. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are strong intuitive currents running through you today, and what’s even better is that you’re inclined to believe them. You feel it when you feel it, and when you don’t, there’s nothing anyone else can do about it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Though you may never have to weather the extreme elements, you want a warm, durable coat that can handle such a remote possibility. This coat-shopping metaphor will apply to some part of your life. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Today, your wit is what a mandolin is to a butter knife: You’re sharper and more precise, and the result is artfully impressive. Take precautions to avoid hurting someone accidentally.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If you speak highly of what you do, the next thing that will happen is that people will want you to do it for them. Gauge your speech based on this. If it’s not your desire to service others at this time, hold your tongue. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you keep solving a problem in the same way, does that really count as a solution? Maybe there something you could do to handle this once and for all. Ask around. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Remember when you fretted for nothing? Let that discourage you from today’s worries, or at least consider taking a break for the day -- you can always resume worrying in the future. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you followed the directions on your shampoo bottle too literally, you would be rinsing and repeating until the bottle ran out. Today, you’ll approach every endeavor with common sense first. You’ll read directions as a last resort.

Economic report card New government data should provide insight on the U.S. economy’s health. The Commerce Department is expected to deliver today its final estimate of how the nation’s gross domestic product fared in the last quarter of 2016. Economists project that the U.S. economy’s GDP increased by an annual rate of 2 percent. That would represent a slowdown from the third quarter, when GDP grew 3.5 percent.

$75,000. Yet the biggest spenders are those ages 35 through 54 and those who earn over $100,000. And gains in confidence among this group are only about half as large. That suggests that any rise in spending and economic growth may not be as robust as the jump in confidence might indicate. Indeed, while Americans have stepped up their spending in the past year, they haven’t done so as much as rising confidence would suggest. Confidence first reached a 15-year high in December. But a month, later annual spending growth barely rose to a two-year high.

Despite the increase, applications remain low and point to a healthy job market. The four-week average of applications, a less volatile measure, ticked up to 240,000. The Labor Department reports its weekly tally of unemployment benefits applications today.

The Department of Agriculture issues today its monthly index of agricultural prices received by U.S. farmers. The index tracks the prices received by U.S. farmers for crops, livestock and other goods. The last index, covering prices in January, declined from the previous month, reflecting lower prices paid for market eggs, turkeys and other agricultural products.

Dear Annie: My husband, who is serving in the Army, is loving and caring and is a wonderful father to his two children. He works hard for his family. He just has one flaw: He has a very strong contempt for the Roman Catholic Church. My family raised me Catholic, but I left the church because of a lack of interest. I consider myself a part-timer (attending during holidays). When I brought up about how he felt about getting married in a church, he went into a tirade. I never brought up the subject again. When our son was born, I considered having a baptism at my church because it’s a tradition in my family — and he threatened to leave. I asked him why he has such strong feelings about this, wondering whether something happened in his past. He finally told me that when he was a child, he was close to a priest who ended up taking advantage of him. It was a shock. He requested that I not share this with anyone. I decided to honor his wishes. Now I just had my daughter. His family and my family would like to have a baptism, but I do not want to go against his wishes. Forget about having it in a non-Catholic way, because I’d end up disappointing my family. I am torn between what my family wants and what my husband wants. I hate
Dear Annie being the middle woman and just don’t want to do it at all. — The Torn Middle Woman Dear Torn: Instead of considering yourself the “middle woman,” you might want to think of yourself as the leader of the pack. Take it upon yourself to find a counselor with whom you and your husband can discuss this matter and with whom your husband might continue to meet one-on-one. He must address the anger and hurt that this horrible trauma inflicted on him. The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests offers many resources, from free downloadable literature to a directory of support groups. Visit http://www.snapnetwork.org for more information. Dear Annie: I was disappointed in your response to the 25-year-old woman whose friend wants to go to parties given by men she doesn’t really know. The friend admitted that she didn’t know the people throwing one party that well but said they would have “good beer and hot
guys.” You told the letter writer to “loosen up” and be “less judgmental.” Do you not read the news or watch TV? Last night on TV, it was said that people are now encouraged to take a bottle opener with them and never drink from a container that is already open. It is too easy to slip drugs into a drink at a party, and you should be especially careful if you don’t really know the people handing out the drinks. Too many young women are being drugged without their knowledge. One of the new drugs cannot be tasted and can put you into a coma. One young woman showed up at the emergency room in a coma. She had been somewhere, drunk what she thought was a simple Mountain Dew and ended up in a coma. My advice is to never go to a party where you don’t know the people well and only drink a drink that you have opened. Those were my rules for my kids. — Safe Is Best Dear Safe: I agree that safety is paramount, and I’m printing your letter here to endorse that point. However, I stand by my advice that “Murky Waters” ought not to dismiss her best friend’s new friends out of hand, even if she doesn’t want to go out to parties with them. We could all stand to be less judgmental.

Rebels vs. Bulldogs begins today in Oxford Mississippi State Sports Information
The Mississippi State baseball season has turned into quite the roller coaster. After traveling to Arkansas and getting swept, the Bulldogs responded with a sweep of their own in Starkville against Tennessee. Arkansas might end up being better than most of us originally thought, and Tennessee might be worse. So where does that leave the Bulldogs? I honestly don’t know. I think this team is somewhere close to the middle of the pack, but I would lean towards putting them closer to the bottom than I would closer to the top at this point in the season. The Ole Miss Rebels will enter this series with a similar overall record as Mississippi State and an identical SEC re-

up quite a bit more. This match up is going to be very simple. Ole Miss is the far superior pitching team, and Mississippi State is the far superior hitting team. Whichever
team’s strength can overcome the other team’s strength will likely win the series. Ole Miss does not hit the ball very well, which is demonstrated by their incredibly low batting average of just .245. This isn’t surprising since most of the lineup is made up of freshmen and sophomores. Ole Miss had the number one recruiting class according to just about every publication in the country this past recruiting cycle, and they are relying heavily on it. The lineup is taking its lumps now, but it could be very dangerous in a year or two. The biggest thing the Bulldogs will need to avoid is allowing base runners to reach safely in front of their main power threat Colby Bortles. He leads the team in home runs and Please see TODAY | 11
Ole Miss defense getting physical this spring Ole Miss Sports Information
OXFORD — The difficulties of the Ole Miss defense were well-documented in 2016, and this spring the Rebels have been on a mission to improve in all facets of defensive play. The mission, according to head coach Hugh Freeze, is being accomplished. “I love the energy of the de-
fense,” Freeze said after Tuesday’s practice. “They’re flying to the football, playing physical. They really bowed their neck. Defensively you’ve got to hold people to field goals (in the red zone). With the offenses in today’s football, they’re going to get down there. You’ve got to hold them to field goals.” The defense dominated the
scripted portion of the Rebels’ red-zone scrimmage on Tuesday. An emerging leader for the unit this spring has been junior defensive tackle Breeland Speaks. “Breeland’s motor has been unbelievable,” Freeze said. “He’s playing at a level energywise and tempo-wise that I could not ask for any more.”
“Breeland’s a great player,” said junior offensive guard Jordan Sims. “I feel like we have one of the better D-lines in the country. Not just me, but the whole offensive line is getting better going against them every day.” Under new defensive coorPlease see DEFENSE | 11

State gets another crack at UConn The Associated Press
STARKVILLE — Mississippi State’s run to its first Final Four in program history has generated more than a little excitement in Starkville the past few days. Although there’s a sobering memory percolating beneath all the jubilation. The Bulldogs have earned an NCAA Tournament rematch with UConn, which dealt the program an embarrassing 60-point beatdown in the Sweet 16 last season. Mississippi State coach Vic Schaefer doesn’t mind saying it was one of the most disappointing moments in his career. And it’s also the reason he’s asking his team to push aside the well-wishers for the next few days and focus on the task at hand. Mississippi State (33-4) gets its second shot at the Huskies (36-0) on Friday in Dallas. UConn has won 111 straight games and is two
games from a fifth straight championship. The Mississippi State-UConn winner will play the winner of the Stanford (32-5) and South Carolina (31-4) in the other national semifinal. “At some point you better get grounded in a hurry,” Schaefer said. “You better get back to reality in a hurry. Because reality is coming on Friday night and if you’re not ready, it won’t be very much fun.” Almost all of Mississippi State’s players know firsthand the reality Schaefer is talking about. The Bulldogs’ roster is nearly identical to last year, when the team’s season ended with a 98-38 loss to UConn . The game was just as ugly as the score would indicate, with the Bulldogs falling into a 61-12 hole by halftime. It set a record for the biggest margin of victory in the regional round and beyond. “Embarrassing doesn’t even cover it,” Schaefer
said. The Bulldogs will certainly be the underdogs once again on Friday, but they’re also on a mission to prove that last year’s lopsided loss to UConn was an aberration. “We’ve matured. We know how to handle different situations,” Mississippi State senior forward Breanna Richardson said. “I feel like we’ll handle this differently this year than we would have last year. With us, just getting another chance at UConn, we’ll know what to expect.” Mississippi State is also playing some of its best basketball of the season. Schaefer surprisingly shook up the starting lineup before the NCAA Tournament — starting role players like Blair Schaefer, Roshunda Johnson and Ketara Chapel instead of usual starters like Victoria Vivians, Dominique Dillingham and Chinwe Okorie — and it was just the jolt
the Bulldogs needed. Mississippi State has had different stars in every game of the NCAA Tournament, with Blair Schaefer, Teaira McCowan and Morgan William all thriving at different moments. The 5-foot-5 William, who is averaging about 11 points per game this season, scored a career-high 41 points in Mississippi State’s 94-85 overtime win over Baylor on Sunday. Knocking off UConn will take another herculean effort from somebody. None of the Bulldogs are promising anything on Friday, but they’re confident they’ll give the Huskies a better game. “I know what I’ve got in my locker room,” Vic Schaefer said. “People who’ve paid attention to us throughout the course of the year know it too. I know what’s inside our breastplate. “I’m not trading our kids for anybody.”
“One of the emphases Coach Roach is putting on us is to strike blockers with our hands,” said Speaks. “I feel like it’s coming along. The more we practice, the more I get opportunities to see myself using the technique and doing with it what I will.” Speaks talked about the tackles playing more squarely against the offensive guard than in previous years and mentioned the maturation of teammates Ross Donelly, Benito Jones, Josiah Coatney, Austrian
Robinson and Garrald McDowell in practice. He was specifically impressed with Robinson. “Austrian is really coming along. He’s striking guys like I’ve never seen, sometimes better than me.” The defense must get better than the 2016 results showed, and Speaks says he and his teammates are using last year as motivation. “You go from being the Landshark defense to people calling you whatever they call you,” Speaks said. “It was bad, and guys hated
it. We have all the motivation to get back to that Landshark defense.” Freeze was pleased to see Donta Evans back on the field giving the linebackers a more physical presence. He also noted that cornerback Jalen Julius has been cleared for non-contact work but will not see contact for the duration of spring practice. The Rebels are gearing up for the April 8 Regions Bank Grove Bowl, which is set for 11 a.m. Admission is free.
Much of the focus on the offensive woes for the Bulldogs has been in the hitters behind the top 3. Luke Alexander has cooled off but still sports solid numbers. Elijah MacNamee has turned into a solid contributor, while Josh Lovelady and Tanner Poole have picked up the pace as well. We’ll see if they can keep it going against a very good Rebels pitching staff. Ole Miss has relied heavily on some young, talented arms. Only one pitcher with more than 10 innings pitched has an ERA over 4.00 for the Rebels. That belongs to Brady Fiegl who currently isn’t in the weekend starting rotation. Freshmen James MacArthur and Will Ethridge bookend the rotatation. They have pitched very well, but they often give way to the bullpen early. The Bulldogs will need to chase both of them early if they want a chance to win. The middle of the weekend has been led by David Parkinson who has been phenomenal. His ERA is 1.93 and hitters are only bat-
ting for an average of .198. Parkinson has struck out 36 and walked just 10. When the Rebels lead in the ninth, they turn to Dallas Woolfolk. He has six saves and has been dominant in those appearances. Konnor Pilkington and Peyton Plumlee have been solid in their rotation spots, the problem has been either run support or the bullpen blowing leads. Both pitchers have ERAs under 3.00 and hitters hit less than .250 against both of them. Despite this, they have a combined record of 5-4. Coach Henderson and Cannizaro appear to have settled on going with Jake Mangum for a few innings to start the third game and then turn it over to the bullpen. It’s not been spectacular, but with all the injuries to the pitching staff, there doesn’t appear to be many other options. While the bullpen has struggled, they performed well last weekend against Tennessee. Riley Self, Jacob Barton, Denver McQuary and Graham Ashcraft have been the most consistent. Ashcraft started Tuesday
night against Memphis, but should be available some this weekend. When the game has gone to the ninth with a lead, the team has most consistently turned to Spencer Price. He’s upped his save total to 5, and has done a nice job closing the opposition down.
DEFENSE CONTINUED FROM 10
dinator Wesley McGriff and defensive line coach Freddie Roach, the Rebels have tweaked some of the techniques up front. Speaks and his teammates are in the midst of adjusting. “The great thing I love about what Freddie is doing is he’s demanding it and he’s going to call them on it,” Freeze said. “I can’t question Breeland’s heart or anything right now, and he knows he’s just got to keep cleaning up his technique.”
TODAY CONTINUED FROM 10
RBIs. If the Rebels want to score a lot of runs this weekend, they need men on base when Bortles comes to the plate. The Bulldogs need to keep their hot hitting going from the Tennessee series into the Ole Miss series. This might be a problem sine the Bulldogs haven’t fared well when they have gone up against some of the better pitching staffs this year. The key for the Bulldogs offensively has been to have base runners on for Brent Rooker, and the Bulldogs have needed to find ways to protect him in the lineup. The talented outfielder leads the SEC in almost every single offensive category, and this has caused Andy Cannizaro to put forth a peculiar lineup. Jake Mangum has stayed in the leadoff spot, but Brent Rooker has been moved up from the clean up spot to the two hole. It allows Rooker to have a more probable chance of hitting with someone on, and it has given him some protection with Ryan Gridley behind him.
Weekend prediction Getting a handle on this series is pretty difficult. It boils down to who you have more trust in — the Mississippi State hitters or the Ole Miss pitchers. I’m not sure which we should have more confidence in. I could be convinced either team will sweep and everything in between. I’m going to go ahead and predict the Bulldogs to lose 2 out of 3. I think the Ole Miss hitters will be completely overmatched by Pilkington. The Bulldogs might only give him a run or two in support, but that might be all he needs. Since it is in Oxford, I think the Rebels win Friday and Saturday. Having said that, there isn’t an outcome in this series which will surprise me.
