Unemployment rate improves in county

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Seasonal trends pushed jobless rates lower in February, with Alcorn County managing slight improvement from a year ago.

At 5.3 percent, the county’s rate is down from 6.2 percent in January and 5.6 percent in February 2015. The county ranked 11th among the 82 counties in the latest labor data released by the Mississippi Department of Employment Security.

The county had 870 people categorized as unemployed,

matching the number from a year ago. The number employed was 15,320, an increase of 670 from a year ago.

First-time claims for unemployment insurance in the county numbered 47 and continued claims numbered 405, compared to 57 first and 378 continued claims a year ago.

Mississippi’s non-farm employment increased 8,400 over the month and was 15,700 higher than one year ago in not seasonally adjusted figures. Industry sectors registerPlease see EMPLOYMENT | 2

5K funds activities for families

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Reconnect 4 Autism started as a vision.

In year two, it has become a community asset.

Brad Essary and Leigh Ann Stewart created Reconnect to provide families affected by autism with a welcoming community.

“We pushed through and so can they,” said Stewart who has a child with autism. “It hasn’t been easy, but we want them to know it does get

easier.”

Reconnect 4 Autism introduced itself to the community through a color run last year at Crossroads Regional Park.

Through funds generated from the 5K, board members are able to host monthly activities for autism families.

“We don’t want families to be trapped at home,” said board member Chris Vandiver. “It’s about taking small steps.”

Reconnect 4 Autism board members are made

up people who work as professional in various areas of Region IV/Timber Hills. Members also are personally affected by a loved one with autism.

“So many people in the community are troubled by autism,” said Vandiver. “A lot of parents feel their only choice is to stay at home, but we want to educate the community so these kids and families aren’t separated from the rest of the community.”

According to the the Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention (CDC), autism now affects one in 68 children and one in 42 boys.

“It’s the fastest growing developmental disability,” said Vandiver.

Autism has increased almost 200 percent just since the year 2000 and there is also no medical detection or cure.

“There doesn’t have to be a difference,” added Vandiver. “Those with autism need a chance to be part of what others are doing.”

The run is partnered by Region IV Mental Health, Nfusion and Corinth/Alcorn Parks & Recreation.

Cost to enter is $25 for adults and $15 for children through April 18.

The entry fee goes to $30 for adults and $20 for children from April 1929. Race day registration is $35 for adults and $25 for children.

Proceeds from the run will be used to provide ongoing programs and events to encourage children with autism and their families to be active.

A portion of what is made will also go to Crossroads Regional Park to build a special needs playground.

“Our goal is to promote an environment for kids with autism to come out

in public,” said Vandiver.

“We want them to reconnect with society and the community is open to accepting those families.”

Some of the activities Reconnect 4 Autism was able to do with proceeds were show a movie each month for autistic people at the Malco Theater; allow children to have their photos taken with Santa Claus; swimming lessons and parties and an alternative Halloween event.

“Our goal is to make the run bigger,” said Reconnect co-founder Leigh Ann Stewart. “The whole day was worth it last year to see all of those kids so excited.”

Vandiver also promises bigger party jumpers for the second 5K. “It will be more of a festival feel this year,” he said.

The course is also changing this year.

“We are hoping to include the new parking lot of the park and not have to get on Droke Road at all,” said Vandiver.

Local/Region Booneville Northeast opens job fair to public BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College will hold its annual Spring Job Fair on Tuesday, April 19 but this year’s version of the successful event comes with a twist.

While previous Spring Job Fairs were open to just Northeast students and alumni, the 2016 version of the Spring Job Fair has opened its doors to the public.

“In the past, we have offered the job fair as an opportunity for employers to reach our students and upcoming graduates,” said Northeast career technical counselor Carrie Cobb.

“Our goal this year, is to extend this service beyond our students and into our local community, in hopes of providing quality employment opportunities to all who are interested.”

Set for 10:30 a.m. through 1 p.m. in the Bonner Arnold Coliseum on the Booneville campus, the 2016 Northeast Mississippi Community College Spring Job Fair has confirmations from over 50 employers that will be in attendance at the event and invitations have been sent out to over 300 local community organizations inviting them to participate in the event.

“The turnout last year was 50 employers, and our confirmed attendee list has grown this year,” Cobb said. “We already have a list of 55 companies planning to attend, and I expect to add a few more before next week.”

Northeast’s Spring Job Fair provides not only the college’s student population but also others a way to effectively network with area employers in a setting that is conducive to the jobhiring process.

Prospective job applicants are asked to come dressed for an interview and to have several copies of their up-to-date resume ready to hand to employers at the job fair.

(For additional information about the fair, please contact Cobb at 662-720-7265 or by

reports.

Investigators arrested 19-year-old Geramy Drummer of Rosedale for burglary of a dwelling. Drummer was arrested when officers responded to the Oxford Square Apartments for a burglary.

Police said the burglary happened at one of the apartments in the complex. When they got there, they began knocking on other apartment doors and asking questions. In one of those apartments, officers found people smoking weed.

Officers said they did not live there. One of those men tried to run, but officers were able to hold him there.

Once officers began searching the apartment, they found the reported stolen property from the burglary of the other apartment that Drummer was connected to.

Police said they found several items scattered throughout the apartment such as a TV in the bathroom.

Once the residents of that apartment returned, officers informed them of the two.

The owner of the reported stolen property was taken throughout the apartment where that person was able to identify his or her property. However, officers discovered several items that did not belong to that owner As a result of those unidentified items, the department is investigating another possible burglary.

Drummer was arrested where his bond was set at $20,000.

The two-vehicle crash took place just after 4 p.m. on April 8 on Highway 18 near Naylor Road, according to Sgt. Chris Richardson with the Tennessee Highway Patrol.

A BMW and a Nissan Frontier were involved in the wreck.

There was one person in the BMW and two in the Nissan, and all were transported to a local hospital with injuries that were not life threatening, according to Richardson.

The northbound BMW reportedly crossed the center line and struck the Nissan head-on.

Ramer Volunteer service hikes set at park RAMER, Tenn. — Tennessee State Parks and State Natural Areas are offering a variety of volunteer events across the state on Saturday, April 16, to help Tennessee Promise Scholars log community service hours required to meet their scholarship commitments.

Big Hill Pond State Park will offer three trails for a fun hike through the park and volunteers will be asked to help mark the trails as part of community service.

The Rocky Knob Trail is on the north side of the park. This trail will only take about 45 minutes to hike and has great views of large rock and outcropings. The second trail is the Big Hill Pond Trail. This is a longer trail that takes you near the Big Hill Pond that was created in

1853 from the Charleston Memphis Railroad.

This trail is about a three-hour hike. The last trail is the Turkey Call Trail and is about a two-hour hike across the boardwalk and to the observation tower.

If there are enough people, they will break out into groups and try to get all three done in one day. You need to be prepared to get paint on you and bring plenty of water. The hikes will begin at 9 a.m. and will last until 1 p.m. The hikes will begin at the welcome center at 1435 John Howell Road in the park.

It’s a great opportunity for Tennessee Promise Scholars to improve a state park or natural area and bank volunteer service hours while having a little bit of fun at the same time.

For more information, call Ranger Justin King at 731-645-7967. It will be helpful to the park staff be better prepared for their volunteer crews if they will register for the hikes.

McNairy County Promise students have high retention McNAIRY COUNTY, Tenn. — Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam has announced 81 percent of the 2015-16 class of Tennessee Promise students returned for the spring semester after beginning classes last fall.

This high retention rate for Tennessee Promise students is a significant indicator they are on pathways to success in higher education.

“When we launched Tennessee Promise, our goal was not only to get more students to enroll in a technical or community college but also to see the students succeed and graduate,” Haslam said. “Students must receive postsecondary credentials if we’re going to achieve the goal of Drive to 55, and we will continue to work with our campus leaders to ensure these students have the highest possible chances of attaining their certificate or degree.”

Will Trump regain lead in New York?

BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Columnists

After Ted Cruz’s smashing win in Wisconsin, it’s on to New York. Will the Empire State break Cruz’s momentum and give Donald Trump back his lead?

The key lies in the rules. Fourteen of New York’s 95 delegates will be elected at large and the remaining 81 will be chosen with three allocated to each of the 27 congressional districts.

If a candidate gets 50-plus percent of the vote statewide or in any congressional district, he gets all the delegates statewide or in any such district. But if he falls short of fifty percent, he gets only a proportionate share of the fourteen delegates chosen at large. And, if he falls short of the fifty percent threshold in any district, but nevertheless finishes first, he gets two of the three delegates and the second place finisher gets one delegate from that district.

So, for Donald Trump, the key question is: Will he finish over 50 percent? If he does, he will win all 95 delegates at stake. But if he falls consistently short of 50 percent in each district, he will surrender at least 27 delegates to Cruz or Kasich, whoever finishes second.

The difference between winning 95 delegates and 68 is, for Trump, enormous. His ability to win on the first ballot could well be at stake.

The most recent poll, by CBS News/YouGov on April 1 showed Trump at 52 percent with Cruz at 21 percent and Kasich at 20 percent. If Trump should fall below 50 percent in districts across the state, he may lose at least 27 critically needed votes.

The irony of the New York state delegate selection process is that each congressional district gets three delegates. It doesn’t matter if the district is a Democratic or Republican district, they still get three votes at the GOP convention. In Republican districts upstate and in the suburbs, hundreds of thousands of voters will decide the allocation of the district’s three delegates. But in Democratic districts, particularly in minority areas, a tiny turnout, perhaps of only 20,000 or 30,0000 will decide the district’s allocation.

A total of 191,000 registered Republicans live in districts represented by an AfricanAmerican or Latino congressman. The districts’ Republican registration is as follows: 5th House district, 54,000 7 th, 28,000 8th, 34,000 9th, 31,000 13th, 27,000 15th, 17,000 Total: 191,000 If the Republicans in these districts choose to reject Trump, they can have a vastly disproportionate pact, possibly denying him 12 delegates (two each) from the six minority districts. Add this to one each (the loser’s share) of the other 21 districts and Trump could lose as many as 33 of New York’s 95 delegates, a key setback.

Will Cruz be able to do it? Will Kasich?

Cruz has the advantage both because of his incredible Wisconsin wipeout but also because he is the only candidate with money.

Kasich doesn’t have much and Trump has shown himself unwilling to dig deep into his personal fortune.

Prayer for today Lord God, teach me the way and show me the light of the eternal day; and may the vision fill my soul as I take courage and follow it. May I not be fearful of what may be provided, but remember that before the creation of life thou didst have a purpose in death. May I be trustful. Amen.

HB1523 shows cultural, political rift JACKSON — As the Mississippi Senate sparred in one of its most contentious debates of the 2016 session, spectators watched intently from a balcony overlooking the chamber.

In one sat Emily group several state Wagster Pettus leaders of the Pentecostal Capitol Dome church who were supporting House Bill 1523, also called the “Protecting Freedom of Conscience from Government Discrimination Act.” A few seats away sat Rob Hill, Mississippi director of Human Rights Campaign, one of the groups that said the bill could lead to statesanctioned discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.

The bill says government employees, religious groups or privately held businesses may cite their own deeply held religious beliefs to deny services to people.

Those protected beliefs are

limited to three: ■ That marriage should only be between a man and a woman.

■ That sex should only take place inside such a marriage.

■ That a person’s gender is set at birth.

While opponents such as Human Rights Campaign and the American Civil Liberties Union demonstrated at the Capitol and outside the Governor’s Mansion against HB1523, supporters of the bill, such as the Pentecostals, have longstanding connections with many of the politicians considering the legislation.

HB1523 was also supported by the policy arm of the largest denomination in the state, the Southern Baptists; and by the Tupelo-based American Family Association, a conservative religious group with a radio network that reaches large portions of the state.

Republican Gov. Phil Bryant signed the bill last week, soon after it passed the Senate and House. It is set to become law July 1, although it could be challenged in court.

“This bill merely reinforces the rights which currently exist to the exercise of religious freedom as stated in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution,” Bryant said in a statement.

The Mississippi Economic Council had not yet taken a public stance against HB1523 when the bill was moving through the Senate.

The MEC opposition came later, as business groups were denouncing similar bills in other states.

The Public Rights/Private Conscience Project at Columbia Law School issued a statement saying more than a dozen law professors — including some from the University of Mississippi and Mississippi College — analyzed HB1523 and found that the bill “without question disrupts the balance between religious and secular rights and oversteps the limitations on state action set out by the Establishment Clause.”

The professors noted the bill’s protection of beliefs about marriage, sexual relations and gender identity.

“Only these narrow be-

liefs are protected, although they are far from universal, even among religious individuals or denominations,” they wrote. “Those who will be most harmed by this law are LGBT Mississippians, intersex persons, persons who defy sex and gender stereotypes, and persons who have had sex outside marriage— the most easily-identifiable of whom are unmarried parents and pregnant persons.”

HB1523 says a circuit clerk could deny a marriage license to a same-sex couple but would have to take “all necessary steps” to ensure a license is not delayed. However, legislators did not fully explain what would happen if all employees of a clerk’s office cite the same religious objections.

The bill provides no money for counties to hire extra deputy clerks, if that’s what would be needed to find someone willing to issue a marriage license to a samesex couple.

Can the GOP get together in Cleveland?

After winning only six delegates in Wisconsin, and with Ted Cruz poaching delegates in states he has won, like Louisiana, Donald Trump either wins on the first ballot at Cleveland, or Trump does Pat not win.

Yet, as that Buchanan huge, roarColumnist ing reception he received in his first post-Wisconsin appearance in Bethpage, N.Y., testifies, the Donald remains not only the frontrunner, but the most exciting figure in the race.

Moreover, after the New York, New England, midAtlantic and California primaries, Trump should be within striking distance of the 1,237 delegates needed for the nomination.

He will then have to persuade uncommitted delegates to back him, and perhaps do a deal with one of the defeated candidates, Marco Rubio or John Kasich, to win the remaining few needed to go over the top.

But assume Trump reaches 1,237 on the first ballot.

Would the GOP establishment accept his leadership, back his ticket, and help to bring together all the elements – national-

ist, Tea Party, conservative and moderate – of a grand coalition to defeat Hillary Clinton?

Or would the establishment refuse to endorse Trump, ensure his defeat, and hoping to pick up the pieces of a shattered party?

Prediction: If the GOP establishment does collude to steal the nomination from the candidate who has won the most states, most delegates and most votes, not only could the party be crushed in November, but that establishment could be discredited in perpetuity.

For those who have come out for Trump, and have given the GOP the largest turnouts of any party in a primary season in history, will not be give their allegiance to a Beltway elite that cheated them of the prize they had won.

Sullen and angry, they will be going home, not soon to return.

To avoid the Hobbesian choice – back Trump or abandon Trump – the establishment must block him from a first-ballot victory. And indispensable to the Anybody-But-Trump coalition is Ted Cruz, whom the establishment, if possible, detests even more than Trump.

One testament to the esteem in which Cruz is held

is that only two of his 53 Senate GOP colleagues have endorsed him, and one of these, Lindsey Graham, did so as the lesser of two evils.

Here is the second peril for the GOP elites.

If Trump is stopped on the first ballot, the delegates who leave him on the second ballot may go to Cruz, and the stampede could be on.

Yet, it is hard to see how a Cruz nomination is better for the party than a Trump nomination.

For Cruz cannot win in Cleveland, unless the man with the most votes and delegates is deprived of a nomination to which he has a far stronger claim, if this country remains a democratic republic.

A Cruz victory in Cleveland would likely lead to the angry and bitter departure of the Trump delegates, and, in the fall, to a mass defection of the blue-collar, Middle-American Trump voters, especially above the Mason-Dixon line where Cruz is already weak.

The latest poll of Republicans in New York has Trump above 50 percent, with Cruz running third at 17 percent. Even in the South, which was to be Ted Cruz’s firewall, Trump beat him repeatedly.

And while Cruz can claim to be a more reliable con-

servative than Trump, how does that translate into electoral votes in the fall?

Can that establishment believe it can rob Trump of a nomination he has all but won, then hold off a right-wing Cruz surge that would ensue, then trot out of the stable one of its own, Speaker Paul Ryan, crown him at the convention, and then win in November?

This is delusional. And what this tells us is, to borrow from The Gipper, that the Republican establishment is not the solution to the party’s problems; the Republican establishment is the problem.

While the GOP appears headed for a train wreck in Cleveland, the principal ingredients of a Republican victory and a Republican future will all be present there: Cruz conservatives and Tea Party types, Trumpite nationalists and populists, Rubio-Kasich-Bush centrists and moderates.

Political statesmanship could yet bring about unity, and victory.

Unfortunately, the smart money is on ego getting in the way.

Campus Country hosts final Showtime of year BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Campus Country wants music fans to feel like they are “Never Alone” with its final Showtime of the 2015-16 academic year.

Scheduled for Thursday, April 14, Campus Country’s final concert of the year will give fans an extra 30 minutes of music than a typical Showtime.

“Karly Clayton, a former Campus Country vocalist, had the idea a few years ago to do an acoustic “pre-show” before the final Showtime to give departing members one last chance to showcase their talents for their fans, friends and family,” said Northeast Campus Country director Chris Dunn.

“The songs they pick to perform are of their own choosing and are rehearsed on their own time. It’s been a really fun tradition for the past few years.”

Entitled “Never Alone,” Northeast’s Campus Country will kick the Thursday, April 14 Showtime off with an acoustic pre-show at 6:20 p.m.

Curtain rises on the final Showtime performance of the year at 7 p.m. with doors opening early at 6 p.m. for the acoustic pre-show at 6:20 p.m. Admission is free to Northeast faculty, staff and student with a current college identification card and is only $5 for the general public.

While Thursday, April 14 might be the final Showtime of the 201516 performance season, Campus Country does not want fans to leave feeling alone and with a 20-song setlist, the ensemble has something for anyone.

“We always like to throw in some surprises on our setlist and this one might be the most surprising of the year,” said Dunn. “We’ll be playing some classic and contemporary country, contemporary Christian, rock and even a metal song.”

From modern country hits from Lady Antebellum and Blackberry Smoke, to classic country from the likes of Travis Tritt, Lee Ann Womack and George Jones, Campus Country’s setlist appeals to all.

“We’ve made a conscious effort over the past few school years to incorporate both new and old country music and even some non-country material here and there to try to draw in a more diverse crowd,” Dunn said.

“I want our shows to be enjoyable to people of all ages from all walks of life.”

Hannah Knight kicks the night off with her rendition of Lady Antebellum’s “Long Stretch of Love,” while Kerston Jumper follows with Maren Morris’ “Company You Keep.”

In keeping with a modern country sound early, Chance Stanley steps to the microphone for Blackberry Smoke’s “One Horse Town.”

Campus Country slows

“The songs they pick to perform are of their own choosing and are rehearsed on their own time. It’s been a really fun tradition for the past few years.”

Chris Dunn Campus Country director things down with its next selection of tunes as Vanna Loveless and Anna Bray take the stage for Casting Crown’s “Just Be Held,” and Martina McBride’s “Anyway,” respectively.

While the music slows down, Chasie Gentry will look to send a message with her rendition of The Pretty Reckless’ “House on a Hill,” while Mary Steadman tries to invoke beauty with her performance of Jonny Diaz’s “More Beautiful You.” Hailey Carmack drops Big Daddy Weave’s “Overwhelmed,” before Campus Country slides into its deep country roots midway through the final Showtime of the year.

Following Carmack’s “Overwhelmed,” Campus Country’s Anna Bray and Mary Steadman take on a pair of country icons with their performances. Bray will attempt the prom favorite and Lee Ann Womack hit, “I Hope You Dance,” while Steadman teaches the audience to spell with the Travis Tritt legendary hit, “T-R-O-UB-L-E.” “I grew up in Alabama listening to 90’s country,” Dunn said. “It’s exciting to me when our vocalists picks a song from an artist that I remember fondly from my childhood like Travis Tritt and Lee Ann Womack. But I also love how quickly we can respond to the current musical landscape and perform brand new music by an artist such as Chris Stapleton.”

Chasie Gentry returns to the stage to perform a staple of the 2015-16 Showtimes as the sophomore vocalist takes on Chris Stapleton’s “Sometimes I Cry.” Stapleton has become a fixture on the Campus Country Showtimes during the 2015-16 academic year as the Grammy Award winners’ songs appeared in the second, third and fourth Showtimes of the year.

During the second Showtime of the year, Campus Country performed Stapleton’s hit “Tennessee Whiskey” while “Parachute,” made its debut on the Showtime setlist in February.

Stapleton has risen through the country music ranks and capped the year with three wins at the Country Music Awards in 2015 and took home two Grammy awards at its most recent awards ceremony.

Stapleton captured Grammys for Best Country Album and Best Country Solo Performance and was up for two others but lost out to Taylor Swift’s “1989” in the Album of the Year category and dropped Best Country

Song to Little Big Town’s “Girl Crush” – which has appeared on previous Campus Country setlists.

As Campus Country reaches the show’s title piece, the group focuses on the loneliness and lonesome times that country music often portrays with a three-song set that includes Eric Paslay’s “She Don’t Love You,” Barlow Girl’s “Never Alone,” and Joey+Rory’s “When I’m Gone.”

Knight will take on Paslay’s “She Don’t Love

You,” while Thorn lends her vocal talents to “When I’m Gone.”

Sophomore Hailey Carmack gets the honor of performing the final Showtime’s title piece “Never Alone.”

After the three-song set, Campus Country heads out of the country music genre as Gentry sings Slipknot’s “Snuff,” but hops right back into the genre as Anna Bray takes on American Idol season 10 finalist Lauren Alaina’s “Barefood and Buckwild.”

Chance Stanley adds to the “Barefood and Buckwild,” as he takes on the George Jones classic “White Lightning,” but Molly Thorn will not be too upset when she performs Tanya Tucker’s “Down to My Last Tear Drop.”

Campus Country com-

pletes the 2015-16 Showtime concert series with two classic rock anthems.

Kerston Jumper gets the task of performing Queen’s “We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions,” while Vanna Loveless sends the crowd off into the night with Bob Seger’s “Old Time Rock n’ Roll.”

“We’ve tended to close out our final Showtime of the year with some pretty epic songs over the last few years,” Dunn said. “Our final two this year are legendary and the group sounds really fantastic on both. We definitely live by the ‘gobig-or-go-home’ mantra when it comes to closing out our Showtime concert series. I can’t wait for our audience to hear them.”

Members of Campus Country 2015-16 include Anna Bray of Booneville

(vocals), Zach Campbell of Tupelo (drums/ vocals), Hailey Carmack of Cairo (vocals), Adam Chabot of Waynesboro, Tenn. (bass), Chasie Gentry of Baldwyn (vocals), Drew Henry of Belmont (electric guitar), Kerston Jumper of Saltillo (vocals), Dillon Keith of Waynesboro, Tenn.

Bribery plea may be withdrawn

ers afterward. “The evidence will overwhelmingly demonstrate that my client should be allowed to take his guilty plea off the table.”

McCrory faced a 20year sentence from his plea and had earlier agreed to forfeit $1.7 million in assets. He could face up to 210 years in prison under the original 15-count indictment.

Wingate reset Epps’ sentencing date to July 18. Part of the reason for the third delay in sentencing revolves around disputes over how to calculate the monetary value of Epps’ crimes. Further complicating the situation, defense lawyer John Colette said Epps wants to get credit for the assistance he’s provided the government in giving evidence against others.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Darren LaMarca told Wingate that a grand jury is considering charges against additional people, and that discussing those names in court now could give away grand jury secrets.

IUKA — Funeral services for Mary Lou Gilley, 76, were held Monday, April 11 at Cutshall Funeral Home with burial in Lindsey Cemetery.

Mrs. Gilley died Friday, April 8, 2016, at the Dialysis Center in Corinth.

She was a retired nurse.

Survivors include one son, Tim Gilley of Iuka; one daughter, Debra Browning (Joe) of Iuka; one brother, Clayton Luttrell of Tishomingo; one sister, Vickie Crawford (Andy) of Tishomingo; and three grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Irvin Gilley; two sons, Tony and Jimmy Gilley; one daughter, Donna Gilley; her parents, Luther and Ethel Luttrell; and a brother, Hafford Luttrell.

Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — A co-defendant of former Mississippi Corrections Commissioner Christopher Epps wants to withdraw his guilty plea in a bribery case, a lawyer said Monday.

Epps had been scheduled for sentencing Monday after he pleaded guilty alongside Cecil McCrory to money laundering and filing false tax returns related to $1.47 million in bribes prosecutors say he took. He faces a potential 23-year sentence, but a judge delayed a decision as prosecutors and defense attorneys argued over the value of his crimes.

Carlos Tanner, a lawyer for McCrory, told U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate that he intends to file a motion to withdraw McCrory’s guilty plea.

McCrory, a former state House member and Brandon businessman, pleaded guilty to one count of money laundering conspiracy in February 2015.

“He does want to go to trial,” Tanner told report-

Earl Lake Strickland

IUKA — Funeral services for Earl Lake Strickland, 81, are set for 1 p.m. Wednesday at Ludlam Funeral Home Chapel with burial in New Lebanon Cemetery.

Mr. Strickland died Sunday, April 10, 2016.

Earl was a Mason and Shriner. He retired from the IBEW. Survivors include his wife, Josephine Strickland of Iuka; three daughters, Vickie Young, Cindy Griffith and Christy Alford all of Iuka; two brothers, Tommy Strickland of Iuka and Bob Strickland of Murfreesboro, Tenn.; three sisters, Verlin Calvery of Tishomingo, Johnnie Bobo of Corinth and Barbara Berryman of Tishomingo; and grandchildren, Anthony Young, B.J. Young, Sunnie Mercer, Sheena Robinson, Jessica Cummings, Samantha Griffith, Monica Strickland and Dayna Alford; and 10 great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by a son, Rickie Earl Strickland; his parents, Lewis and Mattie Belle Strickland; four brothers; and one sister.

Bro. Chris Herrington will officiate.

Visitation begins at 5 p.m. today.

tion before he can decide how long Epps will spend in jail and prosecutors and defense will argue about the value of Epps’ crimes at a June 9 hearing. LaMarca told Wingate that prosecutors have determined that Epps awarded more than $800 million in potentially dirty contracts over seven years ending in 2014. But those are the overall payments from the state to 15 or more companies.

“The state did not lose $800 million,” Colette said.

Both sides agree that the court needs to determine how much benefit the companies received, which is expected to be less than the $800 million, and the companies will have to be subpoenaed to testify.

Epps, who worked his way up from a prison guard during 32 years in the system, used the bribes to buy a home in a gated subdivision, a beachfront condo and top-of-the-line Mercedes Benz vehicles. He stashed some money in brokerage accounts and agents found $69,000 in cash

in a home safe during a raid. Epps is forfeiting $1.7 million in assets, although prosecutors agreed his wife was entitled to $200,000 in assets.

Besides McCrory, two other men have pleaded guilty to bribing Epps.

Former prison phone consultant Sam Waggoner is scheduled to be sentenced Thursday. The Carthage man pleaded guilty in August to one bribery count, saying he paid more than $108,000 in kickbacks to Epps from a prison phone consulting contract. Waggoner faces up to 10 years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines, and has agreed to forfeit $200,000.

Harrison County political operative Robert Simmons pleaded guilty to one count of bribery in February relating to kickback he paid to Epps for contracts covering probation services, construction and construction management. He’s scheduled to be sentenced May 26. Simmons was also accused of bribing a Harrison County supervisor for a jail medical contract.

Hood undecided on Google lawsuit

BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — Mississippi’s attorney general says he doesn’t yet know whether he’ll go to court to force Google to comply with a subpoena or sue the Internet giant for violating state law.

Democrat Jim Hood said Monday that he will examine the current practices of the unit of Alphabet Inc., saying he hopes the Mountain View, California, company will be more agreeable to talks.

“I think after a time to evaluate where we are, maybe we can work with them and go forward and they will have grown up a little bit,” Hood told reporters.

When Hood subpoenaed the company in October 2014, the company responded by suing Hood in federal court.

Google claims the federal Communications Decency Act and other laws mean the company can’t be sued for what others post on the Internet. Google also claims Hood’s investigation is

FAITH SHOWS WHAT WE BELIEVE Israel in the days Jesus lived was a nation yearning for the greatness that had escaped it before the captivities in Assyria and Babylonia. The nation was so focused on winning its freedom and shaking off the dominion in Assyria and Babylonia. The nation was so focused on winning its freedom and shaking off the dominion that it lost sight of spiritual things. In fact, its religious and civil leaders had become practiced actors. They acted as though they would remain loyal to Rome and gave lip service to the Roman government, but all the while they cursed the Romans and looked forward to the day they could rebel against them.

They were hypocrites spiritually, too. They acted like they loved God, but their pious demeanor was largely was just that- act.

Jesus left Bethany and was hungry (Mark 11:13). He saw a fig tree by the side of the road and went to see if there was fruit. As soon as leaves appear on the fig tree, fruit begins to grow. It is common for some fruit to be available on the tree rather quickly. This tree was fully “leafed,” but there was no fruit. There should have been some kind of edible fruit even if it was not mature. The fig tree is a little different that others, once it shows leaves and there is no fruit, it is unlikely to have any at all.

In Matt. 21, Jesus told his disciples a lesson about faith they needed to hear. That is the first and principal purpose of the action Jesus took. Faith must be genuine. It cannot wear a false face. Faith will stand the test. Hypocrisy will always fall flat. The tree may be representative of Israel.

The nation was proud of its promise, but was weak on fulfillment. The people should have welcomed the king when he came, but they rejected him. The entire nation was one that was willing to profess its love for God, but when it came to obeying God, it was weak, indeed. Jesus had a disciple who was just like this. It was Peter.

Peter was human. All of us are. What does your life say about what you believe? He that beleiveth and is baptized shall be saved, he that believeth not shall be condemned.

Mark 16: 15-16.

Read your Bible. Welcome.

tainted by a close association with the movie industry.

The company won an injunction freezing Hood’s inquiry, but the attorney general appealed and the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday threw out Google’s suit.

A spokesman for Google says the company’s still evaluating the ruling and doesn’t know if it will appeal.

Hood says he’s trying to determine whether Google aids criminal activity by helping people find illegal drugs or pirated music. He said he thought Google had made some strides after earlier complaints, but said that it was still possible to type “buy oxy” into the search engine and have it autocomplete the phrase to ‘buy oxycodone’ and suggest a list of sellers.

“We’re not asking them to suppress any legitimate speech, but there’s so much that goes on on the Internet that they could step up to help us,” he said.

The attorney general said he’s not deterred, even though he felt Google tried to embarrass him using leaked material showing that the Motion Picture Association of America helped draft the subpoena.

The movie industry and Google have been at odds over copyright law, with studios failing to win more restrictive federal laws. Some leaked material characterized the effort to get attorneys general involved as “Project Goliath.”

“I think Goliath stomped his foot and thought we would all run away,” Hood said of Google.

Off-duty officer kills man in altercation MEMPHIS, Tenn. — An off-duty Memphis police officer killed his fiancee’s ex-husband during a child custody exchange at a gas station, the third fatal shooting by an officer this year, authorities said Monday.

The off-duty officer was at the gas station to witness his fiancee picking up her 4-yearold daughter from and her ex-husband Sunday night, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokesman Josh DeVine said.

The ex-husband, Luis Philipe Soto, and the officer got into an altercation. The situation escalated, and the officer shot Soto, 29, DeVine said. Investigators found what they believe to be Soto’s gun near his body, but they were still working to determine if he fired it during the struggle, DeVine said. “It’s our understanding that the child may have been turned away from this incident, so she may not have necessarily witnessed this shooting,â€? DeVine said. Â

Woman marks 70 years at hospital  SAN FRANCISCO — Talk about a loyal employee: Elena Griffing has just celebrated her 70th year working for the same San Francisco Bay Area hospital and she has no plans to retire anytime soon.

Sutter Health Alta Bates Summit Medical Center spokeswoman Carolyn Kemp says the company marked Griffing’s milestone employment and her recent 90th birthday. But for Griffing, who has held several different positions in her decades of employment, every day on the job is a celebration. “I can’t wait to come to work every day, this is my hospital,� she said. “I enjoy anything I can do to be of service.

Truly, it’s the patient that counts. If it’s helping someone, it’s my bag.�

She isn’t kidding.

As if her employment longevity wasn’t enough, consider this: She has taken only four

days of sick leave in her 70 years of work.

About 15 years ago she had her appendix removed at the Berkeley facility on a Sunday. On Monday morning, she put on her robe, walked one floor down from her hospital room and got to work. “It was no big deal,� she said. “There was nothing wrong with my hands, I could still type and do what I had to do.�

But when the doctor got wind, he sent her home.

Attorney general charged with fraud AUSTIN, Texas — Federal regulators filed civil securities fraud charges Monday against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over allegations that he deceived investors, the same claim that brought a felony indictment that has rocked the tea partybacked Republican’s first 16 months on the job.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed the civil lawsuit against Paxton and former executives of Servergy Inc., a hightech startup that paid Paxton in the form of 100,000 shares for bringing on wealthy investors in 2011. Federal regulators say Paxton raised $840,000 for Servergy without telling investors that he was being paid.

SEC investigators say Paxton intended to invest $100,000 of his own money into Servergy but that company founder Bill Mapp refused. The lawsuit alleges Paxton said Mapp told him, “I can’t take your money. God doesn’t want me to take your money.â€? Â

Clinton has edge over Trump in poll WASHINGTON — In an early general election warning for Donald Trump, Americans say they trust Democrat Hillary Clinton over the Republican businessman on a range of issues, including immigration, health care and nominating Supreme Court justices.

great� — the central promise of Trump’s campaign — Americans are slightly more likely to side with Clinton, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.

The survey does reveal some potential trouble spots for Clinton. Trump is nearly even with her on whom Americans trust to handle the economy, which voters consistently rank as one of the top issues facing the country.

Clinton is trusted more on the economy by 38 percent of Americans, while 35 percent side with Trump.

And despite Americans’ overall preference for Clinton on a host of issues, just 20 percent say she represents their own views very well on matters they care about, while 23 percent say somewhat well.

But as with most issues addressed in the AP-GfK poll, the numbers for Trump are even worse: Just 15 percent of Americans say he represents their views very well and 14 percent say somewhat well.

Obama’s approval rises with economy WASHINGTON — As many in the United States hold their noses in the search for the next president, they’re increasingly warming to the president they already have.

Buoyed by some good economic news and a surge of goodwill from his base of supporters, President Barack Obama is seeing his approval rating rise.

That puts Obama, who leaves office in January, in a position to remain a force in the political debate at a point in his final term when some others faded into the background.

For the first time since 2013, half of those questioned approve of the job Obama is doing in office, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll.

The survey found the apparent uptick in approval extended across issues, including foreign affairs, immigration and, most notably the economy, where people said they felt slightly better about their own prospects and Obama’s stewardship.

Fulton encouraging citizens to pay bills FULTON — Fulton officials are encouraging citizens to pay delinquent utility bills before their names are turned over to a collection agency.

The city is expected to sign a contract with collection agency American Municipal Services on Tuesday and will collect unpaid gas and water bills dating back to 1994, the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reported.

The agency will use its resources to help the city track down the locations of many of the people with delinquent bills.

Mayor Lynette Weatherford is encouraging customers to pay their bills at city hall before they’re contacted by the collection agency.

Weatherford added that it would be cheaper to pay the city directly because the collection agency is expected to tack its own fees onto the ones customers already owe. Â

Bryant OKs chosen superintendents bill JACKSON — Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant has signed into law a bill that changes all public school district superintendents to appointees.

Monday’s signing of Senate Bill 2438 eliminates the election of school superintendents in all districts.

Fifty-five of the state’s 144 school districts elect their superintendents. The new law requires their school boards to appoint superintendents after their current terms end. That includes positions filled in the November 2015 general election.

Terms for appointed superintendents will last a maximum of four school years.

Mississippi School Boards Association spokesman Paul Chamblee says a majority of school boards support the law. Elections meant superintendents could only be local residents who had to both be qualified and decide to run for the position. Â

Mayor Butch Brown says the city is about to secure an interim director for the Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Brown tells The Natchez Democrat he plans to provide nominees for the interim director and at least four members of the Convention Promotion Commission Tuesday at the Natchez Board of Aldermen meeting.

The Board of Aldermen voted last week to ask for the resignations of all six former commissioners and former CVB Director Kevin Kirby. The measure came after several months of ongoing personnel issues and a city-level investigation into the CVB. Brown said he intends to meet privately with each of his nominees before the aldermen ratify his or her commission in order to go over the duties of the position. Â

33 tornadoes slam state in 3 months HATTIESBURG — The first three months of 2016 were more active than usual in terms of severe weather in Mississippi.

Ed Tarver, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Jackson, tells The Hattiesburg American the cause is due, in part, to warmer-than-usual temperatures.

Tarver said in addition to higher temperatures, the contrasting atmospheres and weather instability contributed to the numerous tornadoes documented in the state from January through March.

This year, Mississippi saw five tornadoes in January, 21 in February and seven in March.

Adams nixes show over new state law BILOXI — Canadian rocker Bryan Adams is canceling a performance this week in Mississippi, citing the state’s new law that allows religious groups and some private businesses to refuse service to gay couples.

Adams said in a statement Sunday that he was canceling a show Thursday at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi.

The singer says he can’t “in good conscience� perform in a state where “certain people are being denied their civil rights due to their sexual orientation.�

The move comes after Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band canceled a Sunday show in Greensboro, North Carolina, because of the state’s new law blocking anti-discrimination rules for the LGBT community. Â

Ocean Springs looks at bringing in Uber OCEAN SPRINGS — Ocean Springs officials are looking at bringing Uber to their city.

Even a member of the city’s Economic Development Council says he can’t get a taxi in under 30 minutes.

The Sun Herald reports the council meeting Monday afternoon will work on how the city can get Uber in town.

The focus: How city taxi laws might dovetail with the new state law that says Mississippi will regulate ride-hailing services such as Uber and Lyft on a statewide basis.

The law puts the job in the hands of the state insurance commissioner.

But cities have their own taxi ordinances.

Mayor will propose convention director NATCHEZ — Natchez

Spotlight on CSX

Eye on Uncle Sam

Weaker demand for coal and other industrial goods has reduced shipping volumes for CSX of late.

That’s weighed on the railroad’s revenue in recent quarters. While CSX posted improved earnings for 2015, its full-year revenue declined from a year earlier. Is the company off to a better start this year? Find out today, when CSX delivers its first-quarter financial results.

The Treasury Department reports today how much money the federal government took in and paid out last month.

The last report showed that Uncle Sam’s receipts and outlays translated into a deficit of $192.6 billion for February.

Economists anticipate the March shortfall at a far smaller $71 billion. In March last year, the government ended the month with a deficit of $52.9 billion.

Friends should practice active listening WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I spent two hours on the phone yesterday with a friend who can talk nonstop and rarely requires a response. I have another friend like this, and it’s exhausting.

I’ve seen letters in your column from other readers complaining about this, and you often suggest that the talkers might have a hearing problem. I disagree. These people joke about their “loud mouths,” have never complained of any hearing difficulties and seem to hear when they want to.

One friend mentioned that she no longer has much of a social life, but I didn’t bother to tell her why. “Sally” pretends to be interested in me and my kids and will ask questions, but if my answer is longer than 15 seconds, she interrupts. And I have to yell over her to finish a sentence.

I wonder if either of them will see themselves in this letter and at least attempt to change. I’ve heard of “listening classes” that can teach people how to actively listen. For now, I’ve got plenty of other friends who care enough to listen, so I’ve given up on the others.

— Middle Aged and Finally Waking Up Dear Waking Up: Hearing problems are only one possibility for those who, over time, begin to talk nonstop.

Another possibility, of

Annie’s Mailbox course, is self-involvement or perhaps a fear that they won’t remember what they intend to say if they don’t say it immediately. So they interrupt and talk over you.

People who do this rarely recognize their actions. It is your choice to end the friendship over such annoying behavior.

But how much kinder it would be to gently point out to Sally why this bothers you, and to remind her when she does it again. You could regain the friendship, and help Sally be a better listener. What do you have to lose?

Dear Annie: I’d like to provide a different perspective for “I’d Like My Wife Back Please,” who has been married for 25 years and his wife suddenly hates him. He mentioned that she had been exercising quite a bit and had totally changed her diet.

I was married for 28 years. My husband was controlling, abusive with our children and wouldn’t keep a job. As the kids left the nest, I realized that I was going to be living with this man for the rest of my

life. It scared me to death.

I couldn’t stand it any longer. I turned the corner and knew the marriage was finished. I’m sure my husband thought it was a sudden change, but it had been building for years.

I’ve come to realize, as women, that we do what we have to do. We raise our kids, we go to work or stay home, whatever. But the bottom line is, when we are done, we’re done. And it sounds like she is done.

To this day, my ex doesn’t think he ever did anything wrong. — Happily Ever After Dear Happily: It’s true that problems can fester and, over time, can destroy a marriage. When they are addressed early on, the relationship can often be salvaged because both parties are aware of the issues and are working on them. This is why we so often recommend counseling.

But when one person suffers in silence, the result is built-up resentment and despair.

Revenge after breakup should be put on hold D E A R ABBY: Recently a guy I’ve known for more than a year decided it would be best for Abigail us to part Before Van Buren ways.

Christmas, I had asked Dear Abby what he would like for Christmas. His response was, “I don’t want anything for Christmas -- I want you.”

A couple of weeks later, he told me the pictures, nightstand, candy dishes and candleholders he had in my apartment were gifts from him because he loved me. Tonight, he packed everything up and left! I don’t know exactly why, but I think it has more to do with his own issues than about me.

Abby, I feel I have been manipulated and used. Ironically, this man I thought was a friend is a psychotherapist. While we were together, he would discuss confidential information about some of his clients with me. I think I should report him, but on the other hand, I’m asking my-

self whether I’m only looking for revenge.

Should I leave it alone, or report him to the American Psychological Association? Or am I overreacting to losing him? I still feel really mixed up. -- VENGEFUL IN MINNESOTA DEAR VENGEFUL: Psychotherapists are not gods, and like other human beings, they can have their flaws. I understand why you would be hurt and disappointed. However, rather than look for revenge, you should consider yourself lucky you didn’t invest more time in this flake.

As to whether you should report his breach of professional ethics to the APA, I think that for the sake of the patients/clients whose trust he has betrayed, you should do exactly that -- but after your anger is no longer raging.

DEAR ABBY: I’m wondering if I have an issue or if what concerns me is fairly normal. I am 31 years old and have three daughters, two stepsons, an exwife and one current wife.

I have been asked most of my adult life, as I’m sure most people have, “Where do you see yourself in five years? Ten

years?” For some reason, I can’t figure out how to answer this question. There are many variables at play, and many lives would be affected by my pursuing what I want in five to 10 years. I can’t say I’m going to be “here doing this in five years” because I have no idea what might change.

Do I need professional help?

It upsets my wife when she wants to talk about the future and I can’t give her an answer.

-- CONFUSED ABOUT THE FUTURE DEAR CONFUSED: Some people use the question of “where will you be ...” as a method of setting goals. What your wife may really be asking is, “Are you satisfied with things as they are now, and if not, what changes do you intend to make?” If that’s the case, it might be illuminating to ask her what changes she would LIKE you to make.

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 hardest kind of criticism to take is honest criticism. Only the strong (that means you) can handle it, and handle it you will -- because there’s something just beyond your usual awareness that will be incredibly helpful for you to know.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Those moments in which you feel happy, healthy, safe and protected from all harm -- those shouldn’t be rare. If those moments are not abundant for you, why not? Today is a fine time to turn the trend around.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Life will make you change for the better, and there’s nothing you need to do about that now.

Just relax and believe. If you can’t believe, that’s fine, too, but you’ll be more comfortable if you at least relax.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Those who know you well are expecting you to succeed, and so are those who don’t know you. That’s because success is your vibe these days! Anyone who isn’t rooting for you in an obvious way doesn’t belong on

your team.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your perfect blend is out there. When the music of your thoughts mixes with the music of a compatible individual’s thoughts, the result will be a beautiful, layered symphony you both can dance to.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Stressful moments have a way of constricting your creativity and thought processes. Laughter is an experience of opening up and getting everything flowing again. You’ll be at your best when you keep looking for the humor.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Maybe it sounds a little harsh, but the fact is that some people in your life nourish you while others deplete you. Recognize this reality and plan your day accordingly to stay buoyant.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Take a moment to gently acknowledge the feeling you’re having; it’s human. You’re not the only one. Whatever you feel, it’s acceptable. Does that help you soften into the moment instead of resisting it?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Address the concerns you have about your image. It’s not selfish to want to put your best foot forward. This is the moment to nip a problem in the bud or make an easy improvement.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You get to decide just how close you want people to be to you. Sure, they may have their own ideas, and there is a bit of negotiating to do (most of it informal and implied), but ultimately you’re in charge. Don’t forget that!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). For moments it will be as though your ordinary mind and sense of personal identity have dissolved into a dream. The question is: How much of this dream are you able to influence? Test it out. Assert yourself and see.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You didn’t go wrong; you went right. Anyway, it’s best not to think about it now. This is different from the original plan, but assume that it’s different in a good way and move forward.

1-3A tourney today at CHS

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The Division 1-3A Tennis Tournament is set to begin today at 9 at Corinth High School Academic and Performing Arts Center.

Alcorn Central is serving as the host school.

Kossuth hosted the event last season at CHS-APAC. Belmont, Booneville and New Site will join the local squads in the fiveevent tournament.

Division champions and runnersup from boys’ singles, girls’ singles, boys’ doubles, girls’ doubles and mixed doubles will qualify for the State Tournament to be held May 9-11 at Oxford Tennis Center.

While regular-season team play includes seven events — two boys’ and girls’ doubles team — both entries combine into one doubles tournament, making it possible for the same school to have a division champion and runner-up in those two events.

Alcorn Central (boys’ and girls’ doubles) and Kossuth (boys’ singles, mixed doubles) won two events last season, with Belmont claiming girls’ singles championship.

Kossuth’s Taylor Heavener and Zak Harbin claimed the 3A title in mixed doubles in 2015.

Play in the team championship will begin next week with division runners-up traveling to division champions.

Those participants are decided by a round-robin league schedule.

Scoring, long ball back in MLB The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The long ball is back.

Teams averaged 1.14 home runs per game through the first week of the season, according to STATS LLC. That is up nearly 26 percent from last year’s average through the first eight days and the most since 1.20 in 2006.

“It is a little surprising, particularly early in April, the runs that are being scored,” Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell said Monday.

Teams averaged 4.43 runs per game. That marked a 6 percent increase through the same period last season and the highest opening-week average since 2011.

Miami’s Dee Gordon, the

reigning NL batting champion, points to Colorado rookie Trevor Story, who hit a record seven home runs in his first six games, and San Diego’s Matt Kemp, whose 10 RBIs were two behind Story’s major league-leading total.

“Trevor Story and Matt Kemp have been holding it down for us. So, we appreciate them guys,” Gordon said, before adding there is most of the season to be played. “You could be hitting .800 now and hit .220 at the end of the year.”

Scoring remains down significantly from the height of the Steroids Era. The average during the first full week peaked in 2000 at 5.34 runs per team each game.

Still, it’s far above the recent low of 4.05 two years ago.

“We are dealing with a small sample,” Commissioner Rob Manfred said. “With that caveat, my preliminary thought is that we are seeing part of a natural cycle in the game.”

The big league batting average of .248 was up seven percentage points from last year and the highest during the first full week since 2013.

“I don’t think we’re far enough into it to see a real trend,” Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. “But things have a way of correcting themselves in our game — like the shifts and all the other stuff. Usually offenses adjust, and the defense and pitchers

make another adjustment.

It’s a constant game of adjustments.”

The increased batting average came despite another big jump in defensive shifts.

There were 1,089 through Sunday, according to Baseball Info Solutions, up nearly 57 percent from 694 through the opening week last year.

There were just 484 during a similar period in 2014 and 212 in 2013.

“You don’t remember the ones that you take away,” Atlanta catcher A.J. Pierzynski said. “It always seems like you remember the ones that you give up, where you’re shifting on a guy in the hole, and Please see MLB | 13

City mourns Saints player as questions linger The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — People across Louisiana sought Monday to process the news that one of the Saints’ muchloved players, former defensive end Will Smith, was shot in the back Saturday night in what police called a deadly act of road rage.

Smith, 34, arrived in New Orleans in 2004 as a No. 1 draft pick and played with such passion and power that he quickly became a defensive captain. Off the field, he won hearts in his adopted city, which was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and rejuvenated when the Saints won the Superbowl in 2009.

“I am telling you that this man loved the city of New Orleans,” said Terrell Haynes,

who got to know Smith and his wife Racquel through their work with Kingsley House, an organization helping underprivileged families and kids.

“That’s the part that is really disheartening, that this man loved this city.”

Police said Cardell Hayes, a former semi-pro football player, rear-ended Smith’s Mercedes G63 with his Humvee H2, pushing Smith’s big, blocky SUV into a Chevrolet Impala carrying Smith’s acquaintances, before Hayes opened fire. A defense attorney for Hayes, John Fuller, said there’s more to the story: He said Hayes himself had been rear-ended moments earlier by a hit-and-run driver, and called 911 to describe the car he was following be-

fore he ran into the back of Smith’s Mercedes. It remains unclear whether the car he was pursuing was the Mercedes, the Impala or some other unrelated car.

The two men — both big and imposing — then angrily confronted each other on Felicity Street shortly before midnight. Moments later, witnesses heard gunfire.

Smith was killed by bullets to the back and torso. His wife was wounded in the leg.

Police arrived soon thereafter, handcuffing Hayes. As paramedics wheeled Racquel Smith away on a stretcher, her husband’s arm could be seen above his steering wheel, his body slumped partially outside his car.

Hayes, 28, was being held

on $1 million bond after police arrested him on a charge of second-degree murder. He was in court Monday as arrangements were made for a new lawyer to eventually replace Fuller, who will soon begin work as a temporary judge. Prosecutors now have 60 days to decide how to proceed.

Police plan to add a charge accusing Hayes of shooting Racquel Smith, spokesman Tyler Gamble said Monday.

Fuller insisted outside court Monday that Hayes will be vindicated once the full story emerges. Someone “besides my client” was behaving in a threatening manner, he said, though he wouldn’t say Please see SMITH | 13

the guy hits a ball where the shortstop has been standing for 150 years.”

After declining for much of a 15-year stretch that coincided with the start of drug testing, more low strikes being called and an increase in defensive shifts, offense started rebounding during the second half of last season.

The average number of runs per team each game climbed 9 percent in the second half, from

4.1 to 4.46, and home runs increased nearly 16 percent, from .95 to 1.1.

“I think there’s just an influx of new young players that are in the league as well as some guys that have been around that now have a little bit more experience,” Chicago White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “You’re starting to see a little changing of the guard of what was there before to what’s there now, and some of those guys are power hitters.”

who. “My client has been pilloried, convicted and tried” by news media and social media, he added.

In court, he got an order to preserve ballistic evidence. He wouldn’t say whether he believes two guns were fired. Questions remain about what exactly happened that night. Police haven’t released the accounts of Racquel Smith, the passengers in the other cars, nor any other witnesses.

Gamble said the investigation prevents him from saying whether Hayes called 911 to report a hit-and-run accident. The news was hard on many who had closely followed Smith’s career.

In 2011, Smith served a two-game suspension for using a weight-loss diuretic banned by the league for masking steroid use. And before that season began, Smith was indicted on misdemeanor charges of domestic abuse battery and public intoxication after officers saw him grab his wife’s hair in an argument.

Those charges were dismissed at his wife’s request after Smith went through counseling and performed community service. Smith also wrote a letter of apology to the Lafayette Police Department, a prosecutor said.

Funeral arrangements have not yet been made public.

Sankey: Camp issues go beyond Harbaugh The Associated Press

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Commissioner Greg Sankey wants to set the record straight: The issue of satellite camps wasn’t the Southeastern Conference vs. Jim Harbaugh.

Sankey told a panel of sports writers and editors Monday that the issue of what he calls “recruiting tour events” dates at least to 2011 — well before Harbaugh left the San Francisco 49ers for Michigan.

“We were clear in our perspective but we had two votes out of 15 in the weighted voting system among the Bowl Subdivision,” Sankey said at a meeting of the Southeast regional meeting of the Associated Press Sports Editors.

“It’s not as if we simply controlled the outcome.

The ACC and the SEC have been in lockstep on this issue over time, dating back years related to how we’re going to conduct football recruiting.

“Obviously it takes more than just the Southeastern Conference to accomplish this change.”

The NCAA’s Division I Council shut down the camps last Friday, approving a proposal by the SEC and Atlantic Coast

Conference. The issue gained renewed attention last year with Harbaugh’s tour of the South for such camps. He already had stops lined up this year in Florida and Alabama — prime SEC recruiting territory even beyond the home state schools.

Sankey and his predecessor, Mike Slive, had both been vocal in their criticism. If the camps weren’t banned, they’d made it clear SEC coaches would be freed to hold their own in a not-so veiled threat.

Of the power five conferences, only the Big Ten voted in favor of allowing them.

Penn State coach James Franklin and his staff worked at camps in Florida and Georgia in 2014.

Ohio State sent coaches to Florida Atlantic.

Sankey was asked to play a word association game if someone mentions Harbaugh. “I move on,” he said. He again tried to diffuse the SEC vs.

Harbaugh story line.

“It is unfortunate to me because I tried to explain a timeline,” Sankey said.

“It’s unfortunate that this conversation has become that specific. That’s incorrect in understanding the full scope of our discussion about recruiting tours.”

Other matters Sankey discussed: —SEC men’s basketball still isn’t measuring up to the league’s standards, he said.

The league had three teams make the NCAA Tournament — for the third time in four years.

The SEC has hired former Big East Commissioner Mike Tranghese as a consultant to help find ways to strengthen men’s hoops.

“If we can just kind of bottom-line it: We have a greater level of expectation of ourselves than three teams playing in the NCAA Tournament,” he said, pointing to greater success in sports ranging from women’s basketball to baseball, softball and

soccer.

He noted Vanderbilt’s recent hiring of facility renovations, Vanderbilt’s hiring of coach Bryce Drew and the four highprofile coaches who came into the league last year as positives.

—In awarding championship sites, the SEC could weigh the state of Mississippi’s recent passage of a law that will let workers cite religious beliefs to deny services to lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender people.

The league didn’t take South Carolina, Mississippi or Mississippi State out of the rotation for championships held on campuses over the Confederate flag issue. Sankey said that when the SEC makes “decisions about championship sites, we’ll take into account a variety of issues and state issues like the state flag issue in the past.

And this is one that is now emerging that would be part of that conversation as well.”
