Third graders do well on state test BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Alcorn County third graders fared well on state tests that determine if a student is ready to enter the fourth grade. The Mississippi Department of Education this week released

school and district level passing rates for the 3rd Grade Reading Assessment (third grade gate) and more than 220 Alcorn School District students took part. The test was given to Alcorn County students during the

week of April 17. Districtwide, 93.2 percent of third grades passed the test. Corinth School District testing will take place in June. Alcorn Central Elementary School third graders reported a more than 95 percent pass-

‘People are going to be happy’ BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Replacement of one of the county’s most unsafe bridges is complete. The Fourth District removed the barricades on County Road 510 Wednesday morning near Kossuth. Supervisor Steve Glidewell is excited to see the project complete after about an eightmonth closure of the bridge. “This is a highly traveled road,” he said. “A lot of people

are going to be happy.” With 300 feet of newly paved apron, it is now the smoothest spot on Road 510. The new bridge over the McElroy/Kossuth Creek is 100 feet long and 30 feet wide. It was shut down last August after an inspection found it to be unsafe for traﬃc due to buckling pilings. With an emergency situation, it was given priority in the State Aid Program. School bus traﬃc had been

avoiding the bridge since 2014. Coming into oﬃce, the bridge was one of Glidewell’s priorities. “We started on this as soon as I got elected,” he said. It had been rated a 22 on a 100-point scale. Buddy Ayers Construction did the project for approximately $535,000. “They did a good job on this bridge,” said Glidewell. “It looks great.”

FARMINGTON — To sow or not to sow — that is the question. At least that was one of the questions considered during the during the recent board meeting of the Mayor and the City of Farmington Board of Aldermen. Mayor Dale Fortenberry said the 24-acre tract of land, which is the site of the proposed Farmington City Park property, had been cleared off and a report had come back from the Mississippi State Extension Service regarding soil samples taken from the property. The samples were taken to best advise city officials how to proceed with treatment for the soil and sowing grass seed. The mayor said the extension service consulted with the Alcorn County Co-op with prices for items needed to provide an estimate for grass seed, lime, Triple 13 or Triple 17 fertilizer, potash and the cost to spread it all. The estimated cost came to a total of $7,744.88, which all officials present agreed was less that they expected. The current balance of funds available for the park is $93,935.79, according to Jeff Patterson. “Now we need to make some decisions,” said Fortenberry. The board agreed there was dozier and tractor work

which needed to be done before the soil could be treated, and they all agreed stabilizing the ground was a key issue. The board took no action at the meeting as it was decided to first obtain cost for tractor and dozier work. The mayor updated the board on the state of their grant application for construction of a walking trail. The grant was applied for with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Recreational Trails Program. He said he had been told the application had been moved to the next level and was being sent to Washington D.C. He hoped to hear something back by September. The next item on the agenda was to announce the Republican Primary Election Results. The mayor read the final votes: Mayor Dale Fortenberry: 70; Joel Cottrell: 53; Lowell Gann Sr.: 59; Shane Harvell: 64; Jeﬀ Patterson: 63; Johnny Potts: 76; Luther Rhodes: 59 and Sidney W. Shadburn: 29. The board passed a resolution to accept the results of the primary and a general election in June is not required. The two newly elected aldermen, Luther Rhodes and Shane Harvell, were both in attendance at the meeting. In other board business: Please see FARMINGTON | 2A

Legislators dispute governor’s midyear budget cut power BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Two Mississippi legislators are suing Republican Gov. Phil Bryant and others, saying a state law allowing governors to make midyear budget cuts is unconstitutional. The Southern Poverty Law Center filed the suit Wednesday on behalf of Reps. Bryant Clark of Pickens and John Horhn of Jackson, both Democrats. They say the state law that allows the cuts violates the separation of powers that reserves budget-writing power to legislators. “Mississippi’s midyear budget cuts statute

delegates to the executive branch the power to reduce appropriations, which is purely a legislative function,” the suit states. The two lawmakers are asking Hinds County Chancery Judge William Singletary to temporarily freeze cuts while the lawsuit is pending. Ultimately, they want the judge to throw out the law and order the state to rescind the cuts made to all agencies. Bryant, in a statement, called the suit “ridiculous” and said it was politically motivated. He also said that if Clark and Horhn won, it would make it harder to keep the state solvent.

Boy found dead after kidnapping BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

GLUCKSTADT — Hours of frantic searching for a 6-year-old boy who went missing Thursday after thieves stole his mother’s car ended in tragedy when authorities found him shot dead inside the vehicle. Authorities found Kingston Frazier shot at least once in the back seat of his mother’s stolen Toyota Camry, abandoned in a muddy ditch, said Jackson Police Commander Tyree Jones. Police have taken an 18-year-old man into custody for questioning, and authorities were still searching for a second “person of interest,” said Hinds County Sheriff’s Office Major Pete Luke. Frazier had gone missing after 1 a.m. Thursday when a man took the car from the parking lot of a Kroger supermarket in Jackson. About nine hours later, following a child-abduction alert and widespread publicity, a man reported the Camry was on the side of a dead-end road in the suburb of Gluckstadt. Officials publicly announced the boy’s death while surrounded by grieving family members. “A 6-year-old is gone,” said Kings-

ton’s cousin, Kolby Irby. “His mother has to deal with this. That’s her baby.” The mother, Ebony Archie, left the boy in the car and left the car running while she went inside the store, Hinds County sheriff’s deputies said. The store’s parking lot is patrolled by sheriff’s deputies, including one in a golf cart. Security video shows that after Archie left, a silver Honda Civic drove up, a man got out, and drove away in the Camry. A child-abduction alert was played repeatedly on local newscasts and police and family members issued public appeals for help. The car was eventually found 14 miles (20 kilometers) to the north, just off Interstate 55, which also runs in front of the supermarket. “We’ve been looking for him for nine hours in every neighborhood in Jackson,” said Deanna Moore, the boy’s aunt. Addressing the people who stole the car, she added, “You could have just dropped him off. You could have left him at Kroger.” Frazier’s body was taken for an autopsy at the state crime lab and the car was towed away by a Highway Patrol wrecker

have worked hard to prepare for the third grade test,” said ASD Elementary Curriculum Director Tammy Johnson. “We are proud of the eﬀort our third grade students have put forth in order to score well.” The Literacy-Based Promotion Act requires third graders to pass a reading assessment to demonstrate they are ready for 4th grade reading instruction. Students are provided with three opportunities to pass the test. “Students who failed the first round of testing were actually retested on Thursday and several passed on the second attempt,” said Johnson. “We will oﬀer a summer reading program to the students who will take the test again at the end of July.” The act requires that a student scoring at the lowest achievement level on the 3rd Grade Reading Assessment be retained in third grade, unless the student meets the good cause exemptions specified in the law. Local

school districts determine which of their students who did not pass qualify for one of the good cause exemptions for promotion to fourth grade. The act was amended in 2016 and will require students starting in the 2018-19 school year to score above the lowest two achievement levels in order to be promoted to the fourth grade. The reading portion of the test was used to determine third grade promotion. The test assess the Mississippi College and Career Ready Standards of reading for foundational skills, informational text, literature and language. Due to Corinth’s District of Innovation status and the changes in the school calendar, the district was allowed to administer the tests at a later date. “The reason for the alternate schedule is our students would have had five less weeks of instruction if we had administered the test according to the state schedule,” said CSD Superintendent Lee Childress. “We are in the process of testing students with Cambridge exams, Mississippi Subject Area Tests and the Mississippi Assessment Program tests. We will have all tests complete by June 9.” Statewide, 92 percent of 3rd graders passed the test. The initial pass rates for the previous two school years was 85 percent in 2014-15 and 87 percent in 2015-16.

Friday, May 19, 2017

Today is Friday, May 19, the 139th day of 2017. There are 226 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History On May 19, 1927, the silent movie “Wings,” a World War I drama starring Clara Bow, Charles “Buddy” Rogers and Richard Arlen, had its world premiere in San Antonio, Texas, where it had been filmed. (”Wings” would go on to win the first Academy Award for best picture.)

On this date In 1536, Anne Boleyn, the second wife of England’s King Henry VIII, was beheaded after being convicted of adultery. In 1780, a mysterious darkness enveloped much of New England and part of Canada in the early afternoon. In 1913, California Gov. Hiram Johnson signed the Webb-Hartley Law prohibiting “aliens ineligible to citizenship” from owning farm land, a measure targeting Asian immigrants, particularly Japanese. In 1935, T.E. Lawrence, also known as “Lawrence of Arabia,” died in Dorset, England, six days after being injured in a motorcycle crash. In 1943, in his second wartime address to the U.S. Congress, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill pledged his country’s full support in the fight against Japan. In 1958, British actor Ronald Colman died in Santa Barbara, California, at age 67. In 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe sang “Happy Birthday to You” to President John F. Kennedy during a Democratic fundraiser at New York’s Madison Square Garden. In 1967, the Soviet Union ratified a treaty banning nuclear and other weapons from outer space as well as celestial bodies such as the moon. (The treaty entered into force in Oct. 1967.) In 1977, in what became known as the “Girl in the Box” case, 20-year-old Colleen Stan, hitchhiking her way to a party in northern California, was abducted by a couple she’d accepted a ride from and imprisoned as a sex slave for the next seven years. In 1981, five British soldiers were killed by an Irish Republican Army landmine in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. In 1992, in a case that drew much notoriety, Mary Jo Buttafuoco of Massapequa, New York, was shot and seriously wounded by her husband Joey’s teenage lover, Amy Fisher. In 1994, former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis died in New York at age 64.

Across the Region Ripley 4 arrested in prescription drug investigation RIPLEY — Two Ripley healthcare professionals has been arrested on prescription drug charges.

Tupelo City buys properties to fight blight issues TUPELO — The City Council has authorized Mayor Jason Shelton’s administration to purchase two properties in blighted areas for a total price tag of $325,000. According to the Daily Journal, the properties in question are a duplex located at 505 N. Park St. and a small apartment complex at 802 Leake St. Jason Harrison owns both properties As part of the purchase agreement, Harrison has agreed to relocate all tenants of these properties and raze the structures located on these lots.

Starkville College to begin major stadium renovation STARKVILLE — Mississippi State will have a groundbreaking ceremony on Saturday for its major renovation of Dudy Noble Field. The ceremony will be before the Bulldogs’ final regularseason baseball game against LSU. The $55 million project is expected to include several additions, including a doubletiered grandstand with chairback seating, an elevated concourse that circles the stadium and a kids’ play area. Mississippi State athletic director John Cohen said on Wednesday in a statement that “now is the time to begin building what will be the finest ballpark in college baseball.” Mississippi State routinely ranks among the national leaders in baseball attendance. The Bulldogs are averaging 8,023 fans per game this season, which ranks third nationally behind LSU and Ole Miss.

Tupelo Demolition costs go higher on former hotel TUPELO — Demolition of a former Ramada Inn will cost slightly more than initially expected, reported the Daily Journal. The city of Tupelo is paying Gulf Services Contracting about $194,000 to tear down a hotel formerly located on North Gloster near the McCullough Boulevard interchange. However, the City Council voted on Tuesday night to approve an increase of about $14,600 to the demolition contract price. Gulf Services Contracting requested the change order in response to the discovery of a retaining wall uncovered during demolition efforts. The extra money will pay for the demolition and disposal of the retaining wall and grading the area into a slope. Mayor Jason Shelton told the City Council Tuesday night that even with the change order, the demolition remains within the project budget established by his administration. Chief Operations Officer Don Lewis told the Daily Journal that he fully consulted with city engineer John Crawley to deter-

mine that the change order was legitimate. Last year, the city paid Gulf Services Contracting approximately $209,000 to remove asbestos from the structure. That means the city now has more than $400,000 invested in the site’s cleanup effort. A lien means that any money ever paid to purchase the property must first be diverted to satisfy the lien. However, the various financial claims by various parties against the former hotel site will likely end up totaling more than the property is worth. Since demolition commenced in April, renovations have begun at a Rodeway Inn located behind the former Ramada Inn. Built in 1972, the Ramada housed travelers for over three decades before the building changed hands in 2006 and was rebranded as a Travelodge. Then in 2011, all business operations at the site were shuttered. The building slowly decayed. The City Council condemned the property in early 2016.

Florence Man indicted on 55 counts of child porn FLORENCE, Ala. — A retired Florence businessman, who was arrested after officials said child pornography was found on electronic devices at his home, has been indicted, reported the TimesDaily. Court officials said William Howard “Pete” Wesson, 65, 712 W. Alabama St, Florence, has been indicted on 55 counts of possession of obscene material of a person under 17. Wesson was arrested in November and charged with 55 counts of possession of obscene material (child pornography). He retired and closed his business in 2015. Police said 55 videos depicting children under the age of 17 involved in obscene sexual activity were seized. The case has been placed on the Sept. 11 criminal court trial docket. A pre-trial hearing is scheduled for Aug. 28. Possession of obscene material is a Class C felony and is punishable by 1-10 years in prison, if convicted. Wesson is out of jail on bail of $275,000.

McNairy County TVA eyes rate decreases in seven-state region SELMER, Tenn. — Electric consumers in TVA’s sevenstate region will see monthly statements for June that will be nearly 10 percent less than the three-year same-month average, according to TVA. Beginning June 1, the total monthly fuel cost for residential and business consumers will be 2.022 cents per kilowatthour, while large industrial customers served by TVA and local power companies will see a fuel cost of 1.865 cents per kilowatt-hour. These prices reflect the cost of fuels that TVA uses to generate electricity at its power plants. Fuel costs rise and fall because of factors such as weather, regional and global economic conditions, and supply and demand.

Big hack attack and the NHS GLASGOW, Scotland — The ransomware cyberattack that wormed its way into at least 74 countries recently exposed new vulnerabilities in the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), as if it weren’t vulnerCal able enough. Thomas Hospital systems in England and Scotland were taken ofColumnist fline. Major operations were delayed, causing frustration and additional worry to patients who spoke to TV interviewers. Sky News technology correspondent Tom Cheshire asked why the affected NHS trusts were not up to date. The answer he received from an IT source inside NHS was: “They patched nothing generally.” Cheshire wrote: “Staff working to keep systems up to date were ‘crushed’ -- by a lack of organizational understanding and money.” After an investigation last year into cybersecurity in the NHS, “We found that some trusts spent no money whatsoever on cybersecurity. The white hat hackers we worked with found serious vulnerabilities just at first glances. Those failings have now been exposed. And it’s patients who are paying the price.” Failure to protect its computers and patient records is one of many problems within the NHS. These problems contain warnings for Americans pushing for single payer health insurance, which could likely lead to health care dispensed by the Federal Government. Should that occur, Washington almost certainly will ration care based on a utilitarian view of the value of human life. Last week, the London Times reported a dim future for the NHS. According to “leaked estimates,” (the White House isn’t the only place affected by leaks), more than 5 million people could be stuck on waiting lists for treatment over the next two years. “The number of patients waiting more than four months for surgery,” writes the Times, “could more than double to 800,000 by 2019.” If that happens, it will likely cause even more deaths that might have been prevented under a different and market-oriented health care system. There’s more. The Daily Telegraph reports that the number of people waiting at least a week to see a general practitioner has risen from 13.8 percent to 19.3 percent in just three years. And “more than 250,000 patients have been displaced by surgery (medical center) closures in the last year, a five-fold rise since 2013.” The Conservative Party in the UK had promised to recruit 5,000 new doctors by 2020. Instead, the number has fallen by 400. Many doctors are retiring or leaving the profession, creating gaps the NHS has been unable to fulfill. There has been a rise in the number of doctors “going private,” as they are able to make more money than in the government system. Junior doctors have been offered bonuses to train as GPs and in a sign of desperation the government is seeking to entice medics from Lithuania, Poland and Greece to come to the UK. It is a mystery why so many people in the UK and in the U.S continue to put their faith in government when it has such a poor record of accomplishment. We can’t even win wars anymore. The television news programs in the UK carry stories about the government this and the government that, as if there is no other source to which one can turn to improve the level of medical care. As with most things, the wealthy can go to private doctors, or visit the U.S. and other countries for higher quality and faster treatment. Those with fewer resources must rely on a system that increasingly resembles the stereotypical doctor who tells a patient, “Take two aspirin and call me in the morning.” If you can get through, that is.

Prayer for today Lord God, may I comprehend the sacredness of friendship. I thank thee for my friends, and for all the beautiful influences which they bring to my life. May I never hold friendship without the sincerity to return it. Correct my faults, and cause me to learn the secret of cheerful endurance, that I may be steadfast. Amen.

A verse to share All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. —Acts 2:4

Trump vs. Waters: Who should be impeached? Almost from the moment President Donald Trump recited the oath of oﬃce, Rep. Maxine Waters, DCalif., began a quest for Trump’s impeachment. But given Waters’ record of 26 years in Congress (plus a prior 14 years in the California State Assembly), she should worry far more about the possibility of her own impeachment for leadership malpractice. Here is a summary of some of her greatest hits: Waters condemned the CIA for its alleged role in the creation of the Los Angeles-area drug problem, even though practically every major newspaper -- The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post -- examined and rejected the charge. During a town hall meeting, she bellowed: “If I never do anything else in this career as a member of Congress, I’m gonna make somebody pay for what they’ve done to my community and to my people!” The congresswoman’s concern for the drug epidemic aﬀecting “(her) people” apparently begins and ends in front of a microphone. In the ‘90s, a joint federal and local Houston DEA task force pursued

cocainedealing allegations of James Prince, a childhood friend of Larry Maxine WaElder ters’ husband. WaColumnist ters wrote to then-Attorney General Janet Reno, calling the investigation racially motivated and demanding an end to the probe. She succeeded. One infuriated local DEA agent later publicly stated: “The Justice Department in Washington turned their backs on a good agent and a good investigation. It appears the object was to get them to stop their investigation, and it appears that worked.” In 1973, former Black Panther Joanne Chesimard shot and killed a New Jersey state trooper. Found guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison, Chesimard escaped prison and fled to Cuba. Congress passed a resolution asking Fidel Castro to extradite her, but Waters wrote Castro a letter, urging him to let the “persecuted ... political activist” stay in Cuba and likening the cop killer to Martin Lu-

ther King, since Chesimard had been “persecuted for her civil rights work”! Waters justified the 1992 Los Angeles riots by calling them a “rebellion,” while bellowing, “No justice, no peace.” The violence, she said, was “a spontaneous reaction to a lot of injustice and a lot of alienation and frustration.” She defended looters: “There were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes. Maybe they shouldn’t have done it, but the atmosphere was such that they did it. They are not crooks.” Waters called President George H.W. Bush a “racist” and refused to apologize for it. She said of the then-sitting president: “I would like to ... say ... very clearly that I believe George (H.W.) Bush is a racist.” She routinely refers to the Republican Party as “the enemy.” She also referred to Republican former Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan as a “plantation owner.” And she once proclaimed: “As far as I’m concerned, the tea party can go straight to hell.” Waters phoned thenSecretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson in 2008, asking his oﬃce to meet

with financially distressed minority-owned banks. He complied. But most of the bankers in attendance were from OneUnited Bank -- a bank in which Waters’ husband owned shares and on whose board he once served. OneUnited asked for a special bailout, and a few months later it received $12 million. This prompted an investigation by the House ethics committee. The basis of the ethics inquiry was why Waters failed to disclose her personal financial interest in the bank bailout. After three years, the committee found no ethics violation, believing Waters’ testimony that she did not know OneUnited was the distressed bank until after the meeting. If Waters were a Republican, especially a white male Republican, the media would have long dismissed her as a racist, toxic, divisive demagogue. That the left takes her seriously says far more about the left than about the President. Larry Elder is a best-selling author and nationally syndicated radio talk-show host.

New Jackson mayor faces big challenges So now Jackson will have yet another mayor. Let’s pray he’s a good one. Incumbent Mayor Tony Yarber only received five percent of the vote. Ouch. Apparently unfilled potholes, cronyism and sexual harassment lawsuits don’t sit well with Jackson voters. Like Yarber, our likely new mayor, Chokwe Antar Lumumba, will come to office with practically zero experience in running a city. That does not bode well. What Lumumba does have is an impressive political victory, beating nine candidates without even a runoﬀ. Wow! Lumumba is quite charismatic. He is a talented speaker and seems to be a natural politician. Listening to his postelection victory speech, Lumumba seemed to say something really significant without saying much of anything specific and oﬀending no one. He strung together a bunch of vague buzzwords that both appealed to his base and calmed his detractors. You can’t teach that kind of talent. A great political victory among the Jackson electorate does not guarantee success. Former Mayor Frank

Melton was a political phenomenon but a disaster in oﬃce. Yarber was a Wyatt flop. Harvey Emmerich Johnson got voted out Columnist of the job twice, the second time failing, like Yarber, to get more than five percent of the vote. The takeaway for Lumumba should be that Jackson voters want results and are quick to switch horses if they don’t see immediate progress. Lumumba will take office facing a mountain of problems: eroding tax base, massive infrastructure costs, disgruntled workforce, corrupt contractors and a dearth of managerial competence. Then there is the impending threat of a state takeover of Jackson. The airport takeover and the new capitol improvement district laid the groundwork for that. The clock is ticking. If Lumumba succeeds in turning Jackson around, the sky is the limit for his political ambitions. He can keep the rhetoric flowing, but it

has to be backed up with true managerial competence. As an observer and commentator through five Jackson mayoral administrations, I have some recommendations for the young Lumumba: • Do a nationwide search and hire the most competent chief administrative oﬃcer in the country. You need someone who has years of real experience turning around and managing a city the size of Jackson. If you do this one thing, you have a decent chance at success. If you don’t, it will be a tough row to hoe. • Fix what you can fix and give speeches about the rest. By hiring the right people, you can fix the water department billing mess. You can implement a road maintenance plan. You can pave streets. You can fill potholes. In fact, if you just pave 100 miles of streets and fix the water bills, you will be lauded at as a miracle worker. • Reassure the powers that be. Get them on your side. That means engaging the business community and the state Legislature. Every community has movers and shakers. Find out who they are and seek their

guidance and counsel. You are now the leader of the entire city. You can’t do it without their support. If you engage these people, they will freely offer the direction and expertise you will desperately need to succeed. • Engage the media. Don’t underestimate its power to make or break your reputation. This was one of Yarber’s critical mistakes. Cultivate personal relationships with all the key reporters, editors, newscasters and bloggers. Respond to every negative article or editorial with a letter to the editor or a personal post. Don’t let any criticism go uncontested. Speak up. Be transparent. • This is not a payday. It is a public service job. If you use the office to get rich, the people will eventually discover your real motivation. Scrupulously avoid conflicts of interest. Your honesty will be rewarded, and you will go on to higher office. • Get the state on your side. They have the big money. Now they have shown a willingness to invest in Jackson. Embrace them. Don’t make it a power play. They need you. You need them.

Don’t mess with the wrong girl BY JIMMY C. REED Columnist

Uncle Virgil wanted a son to name Virgil Jr., but ended up with a bunch of girls. When the last one came along, Aunt Lillian refused to let the child be named after her father, reasoning that a girl named Virgil would be worse than a boy named Sue. Grudgingly, Auntie agreed to let Virgilene be the child’s middle name. Everybody but me called her Alice, her first name. Virgilene was as uncomely as they come, and because her buckteeth poked out like a piranha, she was so ugly that she’d make a freight train take a dirt road. I not only made fun of her middle name, but also of her

frightful fangs. Virgilene and I played together often, and got along fine until I started teasing her; then she’d run squalling to her mama. An unflappable old soul, Auntie would say, “Now, now, y’all be sweet to one ’tuther and go on ‘bout yo’ playin’.” One day, I was being particularly mean, and chanted that awful name over and over again. “I’m Alice. Quit calling me that!” she demanded. Then I took my teasing too far: “With them chompers, you could eat roasting ears through a picket fence.” She burst into tears and ran home. When she told her mama what I’d said, Auntie talked to

Mama, and they decided the only solution was to not let us play together for a while. Time went by, and I missed my playmate, so I had a talk with my boyhood best friend and mentor Jaybird, hoping he could tell me what I should do to make things right. “You better quit pickin’ on that girl,” the old black man said. “Wimmen has all got a mean streak in ’em, and if you don’t quit teasin’ her, you’ll find out the hard way that Virgilene’s mean. Go talk to yo’ Aunt Lillian and promise her that you and Alice will come up with a plan to prove y’all kin git along.” “Aunt Lillian, I promise that from now on I’ll call her Alice,

and to prove that I’m sincere, I’ll put my teeth on her nose but won’t bite; then she can do the same to me. That’ll prove that we can get along, won’t it?” Auntie agreed, as did her daughter and Mama. Gently I placed my teeth across the bridge of my cousin’s nose, but didn’t bite. “See,” I said, looking angelically at the adults. “I promised not to bite Virgilene, and didn’t.” Accidentally, I uttered that awful name. When I submitted my nose to the girl I should have called Alice, she placed those dagger dentures on my snout — and bit down with all her might!

“Aaaaaaaaaaagh!” I screamed. “Get her oﬀ! Get her oﬀ!” Finally she let go, and glaring at me with a smirk of supreme satisfaction, said, “Mother, punish me however you wish — it was worth it.” Later on, when I told Jaybird what happened, he said, “What did I tell you? Virgilene’s mean.” Oxford resident, Ole Miss alumnus, Army veteran, and retired Mississippi Delta cotton farmer Jimmy Reed (jimmycecilreedjr@gmail.com) is a newspaper columnist, author and college teacher.

Mississippi still ‘unrecovered’ 9 years after recession began BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

MERIDIAN — Call them the unrecovered — a handful of states where job markets, nine years later, are still struggling back to where they were before the recession. That’s true in Mississippi, where job numbers and the overall size of the economy remain below 2008 levels. Unlike states that have long since sprinted ahead, Mississippi is struggling with slow economic growth and slipping population in a place that’s rarely at peak economic health. Miguel Brown, despite family ties to his hometown near the Alabama border, is working on oil rigs oﬀ the shore of Texas, chasing higher wages. “It’s rough,” said the 49-year-old Brown. “There’s not a whole lot of jobs in Meridian, especially that pay anything.” Not only Mississippi, but also Alabama, Michigan, New Mexico, and West Virginia are still short of pre-recession job levels by multiple measures. That contrasts with states including Colorado, North Dakota, Texas and Utah, where employment numbers have soared. Nationwide, job numbers surpassed pre-recession peaks in the middle of 2014, about the same time Mississippi was saddled with the nation’s highest unemployment rate. Emilia Istrate, who produces a yearly report on how local economies are faring for the National Association of Counties, said the recovery has been widespread but “uneven.” “It explains why so many Americans don’t feel the national economic numbers. It’s because they live in one of these places that is still in recovery or struggling,” Istrate said. Growth has long lagged in Mississippi, and jobless rates are high even in good times. The unemployment rate fell to 5 percent in

March, the lowest since the U.S. Labor Department began the current system of measurement in 1976. But at the same time that the Magnolia State’s unemployment rate was at a record low, it tied for the ninth highest among the states. Mississippi suﬀers from a cluster of ills that make it an economic laggard. Only 53 percent of Mississippi adults were working in 2016, the second lowest share of any state. Mississippi’s economy depends on slow-growth sectors, including government employment. While nearly 30 percent of Americans older than 25 have a bachelor’s degree

or higher, only 21 percent of Mississippians do. The overall size of Mississippi’s economy was smaller in 2016 than it was in 2008, and people are beginning to vote with their feet: the state’s population has fallen in the last two years. That doesn’t mean things haven’t improved for many people. Economists have long advised that a better-educated, more productive workforce could eventually spur growth. The state’s community colleges last year began oﬀering not only adult education classes to high school dropouts, but also free training leading to career certification.

Trump supporters blame conspiracy for his woes BY JILL COLVIN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — To the White House and its supporters, the big story in Washington isn’t the investigation into possible Trump campaign ties to Russia. It’s about leakers working to undermine the president. “SABOTAGE,” read the subject line of emails sent out by President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign and the Republican Party, which pointed to “people within our own unelected bureaucracy that want to sabotage President Trump and our entire America First movement.” Trump tweeted Thursday that he’s facing “the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history!” The language reveals much about how Trump and his backers are explaining the seemingly never-ending blitz of bad news rocking the White House. As Democrats talk

about possible obstruction of justice and dream of removing Trump from oﬃce, the president and his allies reject that he bears responsibility for his woes. They see a plot to undermine him at every turn, as evidenced by the anonymous sources disclosing the embarrassing and damaging information — some of it classified. All administrations have to deal with leaks, from the release of the Pentagon Papers on Vietnam policy to Edward Snowden’s dump of national security files. But the scope and frequency experienced by the Trump White House is remarkable. In addition to an endless stream of gossip and internal squabbling, news outlets have been privy to everything from details of draft documents to the president’s private phone conversations with foreign leaders. This week came re-

ports that the president had shared highly classified information with Russian officials during an Oval Office meeting, revealed by those with knowledge of the conversation. “This has all the markings of a coordinated, silent coup,” said Michael Caputo, who worked on Trump’s campaign and keeps in touch with administration officials. Leaks are hardly the only cause of Trump’s problems — the uproar over FBI Director James Comey’s dismissal wasn’t the result of a leak. But Trump-friendly talking heads see something that stretches the realms of believability. Far-right radio host Alex Jones warns of a plot by “deep-state” globalists to impeach Trump. On Fox News, Sean Hannity warned Wednesday of a “destroy Trump alliance” that is now “aligning to take down President Trump.”

Fox News founder Ailes dies Associated Press

NEW YORK — Roger Ailes, the communications maestro who transformed television news and America’s political conversation by creating and ruling Fox News Channel for two decades before being ousted last year for alleged sexual harassment, died Thursday, according to his wife, Elizabeth Ailes. He was 77. Ailes died after a fall at his Palm Beach home on May 10 caused bleeding on the brain, the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner’s Oﬃce said.

Ailes fell in his bathroom, hit his head and was bleeding profusely. He was taken to a hospital by attending paramedics, the Palm Beach (Florida) Police Department said. A former GOP operative to candidates including Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush and a onetime adviser to President Donald Trump, Ailes displayed a mastery of modern messaging early in his career. Then he changed the face of 24-hour news when,

in 1996, he accepted a challenge from media titan Rupert Murdoch to build a news network from scratch to compete with CNN and other TV outlets they deemed leftleaning. That October, Ailes flipped the switch on Fox News Channel, which within a few years became the audience leader in cable news. Conservative viewers found a home and it lifted primetime commentators Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity to the top of the news ratings.

No consensus in presidential search Associated Press

JACKSON — Trustees looking for a new president for Jackson State University have been unable to reach a consensus. After hours of closed debate Thursday, College Board President C.D. Smith said trustees are now broadening their search beyond three unidentified finalists they have been considering. Smith says it’s wrong to say the search is being reopened because the board always had the option to consider additional candidates. He said no votes were taken in the closed meeting.

Trump ‘very close’ to naming FBI chief WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Thursday that he is “very close” to naming a new FBI director to replace the one he fired more than a week ago. Asked how close he is to making an announcement, Trump said, “soon.” During an Oval Office appearance with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, Trump was also asked whether former Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman was a candidate for the job. Trump responded, “He is.” Trump and Lieberman, who ran for vice president in 2000, discussed the position at the White House on Wednesday. Lieberman gave reporters a thumbs-up as he left the White House and said he and the president had a “good meeting.” Trump has said he could name a new director before he leaves the country Friday on his first overseas trip as president. Trump interviewed three other potential FBI director candidates Wednesday: former Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating, former top FBI official Richard McFeely and Andrew McCabe. McCabe became acting director after Trump fired James Comey as director last week. The Senate must confirm whomever Trump nominates for the job.

Harvard senior raps for English thesis BOSTON — While other Harvard University students were writing papers for their senior theses, Obasi Shaw was busy rapping his. Shaw is the first student in Harvard’s history to submit a rap album as a senior thesis in the English Department, the university said. The album, called “Liminal Minds,” has earned the equivalent of an A-minus grade, good enough to guarantee that Shaw will graduate with honors next week. Count Shaw among those most surprised by the success. “I never thought it would be accepted by

Harvard,” said Shaw, a 20-year-old from Stone Mountain, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. “I didn’t think they would respect rap as an art form enough for me to do it.” Shaw describes the 10-track album as a dark and moody take on what it means to be black in America. Each song is told from a different character’s perspective, an idea inspired by Geoffrey Chaucer’s 14th-century classic “The Canterbury Tales.” Shaw, who’s black, also draws on the works of writer James Baldwin while tackling topics ranging from police violence to slavery. Shaw’s thesis adviser, Harvard English lecturer Josh Bell, said Shaw is a “serious artist and he’s an amazing guy.” “He was able to turn around an album that people in the English Department would like very much but also that people who like rap music might like,” Bell said.

Car mows down pedestrians in NYC NEW YORK — A man who appeared to be intoxicated steered his car onto a sidewalk running through the heart of Times Square on Thursday and mowed down pedestrians for three blocks, killing a teenager and injuring 22 others, before he was tackled by bystanders, authorities said. Pandemonium erupted when the vehicle barreled through the prime tourist location and slammed into a security barrier, coming to rest with two of its wheels in the air. The car leaned on a lamppost and steel barriers intended to block vehicles from getting onto the sidewalk. “He didn’t stop,” said Asa Lowe, of Brooklyn, who was standing outside a store when he heard screaming. “He just kept going.” The driver was tackled by pedestrians and taken into custody. He was being tested for drugs and alcohol and charges against him were pending. The crash happened at midday on a hot, clear day that brought

large crowds of people into the streets to enjoy the good weather. Video posted online showed steam or smoke pouring from the car for a few moments after it stopped moving. The driver, a 26-yearold Navy veteran named Richard Rojas, was taken into custody and was undergoing tests for alcohol and drugs, Police Commissioner James O’Neill said. Rojas had been arrested at least twice previously for driving while intoxicated, once in 2008 and once in 2015, police said. He pleaded guilty to an infraction in 2015 and was ordered to complete a drunken driving program and lost his license for 90 days.

Ryan promises tax overhaul this year WASHINGTON — House Speaker Paul Ryan insisted on Thursday that Congress will overhaul the U.S. tax system this year despite the chaos consuming Washington and the political divisions in Congress. “I feel very confident we can meet this goal,” Ryan, R-Wis., told reporters. Ryan was bolstered by skittish business leaders who began an aggressive lobbying effort to ensure that their vision for a tax overhaul isn’t lost in the daily distractions of President Donald Trump’s administration. The conservative Koch brothers’ political network announced it is preparing to spend millions of dollars toward that end. The announcement came on the same day a handful of business executives told a congressional committee that the current tax system makes U.S. companies uncompetitive. “We no longer live in a world where the U.S. can set a corporate tax rate without considering what our international competition looks like,” John Stephen, AT&T’s chief financial officer, told the House Ways and Means Committee. “Countries are vigorously competing against each other to attract investment and jobs, but the U.S. has done little to retain its competitive advantage.”

Company in scandal to pay state $2M JACKSON — A company that made drug testing cups involved in Mississippi’s prison bribery scandal will pay the state $2 million. Alere, the parent company of Branan Medical Corp., agreed Tuesday to settle a lawsuit without admitting wrongdoing. Attorney General Jim Hood said in a statement that the amount “effectively” recovers what the state spent on the cups and any profits Branan made. Hood in February sued 22 people and companies associated with the bribery scheme in 11 separate lawsuits, saying they should repay more than $800 million they received from the state because of bribes taken by Corrections Commissioner Christopher Epps. Alere is the first company to settle. Texas drug-testing supplier Mark Longoria pleaded guilty in August to a felony charge of conspiracy to commit bribery in sales of Branan cups. He was sentenced to five years in prison. Longoria told the judge that he sought the Mississippi contract and ultimately agreed to bribe Epps because he was on the verge of losing his sales job with Branan after its buyout by Alere, meaning his only income would be from Drug Testing Corp., previously a sideline business. The CEO of Drug Testing Corp., Longoria admitted he paid nearly $230,000 to Mississippi businessman Cecil McCrory for his work helping to secure $782,000 in sales of drug testing cups in 2013 and 2014. Longoria has said he found out during the contract that McCrory was kicking back $60,000 to Epps but did nothing to stop it. Prosecutors said he may have known from the beginning.

in 1949 and the University of Southern Mississippi in 1953, helped found the Magnolia State Classic in 1968. He spent the next 38 years as the tournament director for Mississippi’s only PGA Tour event, which went through several name changes including the Deposit Guaranty Golf Classic, the Southern Farm Bureau Classic and the Viking Classic, before becoming the Sanderson Farms Championship, which is played each year in Jackson. Ron Hickman, Timberton Golf Club’s general manager, met Morgan while in college. He served as a caddy for the Magnolia State Classic — initially played opposite The Colonial Invitational and later The Masters annually at Hattiesburg Country Club — before eventually becoming the tournament’s caddy master. “He was a great administrator,” Hickman said of Morgan, a 2009 Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame inductee. “He was outstanding. He could handle anything that came his way, good or bad, and do it all with a twinkle in his eye. He had a talent most people didn’t.”

Coastal cities laud fallen law officers GULFPORT — A Mississippi city is planning to block the street in front of its police department to remember eight fallen police officers. The Sun Herald reported the street in front of the Gulfport Police Department will be closed to traffic starting Thursday night and will remain closed until after a 9 a.m. memorial ceremony on the department’s front steps.

The event is in conjunction with National Police Week and is one of several taking place this week on the Mississippi Coast. Memorial services took place Thursday morning in Bay St. Louis and Moss Point. On Sunday, state troopers will lay wreaths on the grave sites of the five Mississippi Highway Patrol officers killed on duty in six southern counties.

Line break means no water for five days VICKSBURG — Too much water will mean none at all for almost 30,000 customers in and around Vicksburg for five days or more. The line carrying treated water from the city’s water plant to all customers broke this week in an area that’s currently flooded by a Mississippi River backwater. With no way to deliver clean water, the city shut down its pipes. “We have absolutely no water anywhere in Vicksburg,” Mayor George Flaggs Jr. told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. Flaggs said that the city now must build a levee around the ruptured line and pump floodwater out of a low-lying area before repairs can begin. He said repairs are likely to take at least until Monday. Faucets also were dry in the neighboring Yokena-Jeff Davis Water District, which buys its water from Vicksburg. Schools sent students home and will be closed for the rest of the week. Many restaurants shut their doors. Casinos remained open, although some closed restaurants or hotels.

China cinema cliffhanger China’s film market, the world’s second-biggest, is cooling fast in a financial cliffhanger for Hollywood studios depending on Chinese audiences and for local rivals that want to expand abroad. After years of 30 to 40 percent gains, ticket sales edged up only 3.7 percent last year to 45.7 billion yuan ($6.6 billion), according to EntGroup Inc., a research firm. The North American box office rose 2.1 percent to $11.4 billion. Industry analysts say slowing Chinese economic growth and

an unusually weak slate of domestic titles are to blame. Foreign movies fared better, with ticket sales up 11 percent over 2015 at 19 billion yuan ($2.7 billion). That is lucky for Hollywood, because Chinese viewers account for up to one-third of global revenue for blockbusters such as “The Fate of the Furious,” China’s most popular movie this year. No rebound is in sight. Ticket sales in January-April were up just 3 percent from a year ago, according to EntGroup.

Slowing growth: 2016 saw a small increase in ticket sales over past years of double-digit growth.The slowing Chinese economy and weak titles are contributing to underperforming sales.

MARKET SUMMARY G

Gaining traction?

Oil and gas tracker

Wall Street predicts that Deere & Co.’s latest quarterly results improved from a year earlier. Financial analysts expect the maker of mowers and tractors will report today higher earnings and revenue in the February-April quarter. That would be an improvement over Deere’s previous quarter, when earnings and revenue fell.

Oilfield services company Baker Hughes issues today its latest weekly tally of U.S. oil and natural gas rigs. Last week, the number of rigs rose to 885. That tally included 712 rigs exploring for oil and 172 seeking natural gas. The rig count has been rebounding steadily since last year after a protracted slide caused by declining oil prices. The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981. It bottomed out a year ago at 404.

Foot Locker’s latest quarterly snapshot should provide insight into the retailer’s sales trends. Earlier this year, the athletic footwear and accessories chain said its first-quarter results would be hurt by slower-than-usual sales in the U.S., partly due to a delay in the issuance of income tax refund checks. Foot Locker reports its earnings for the February-April quarter today.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian You don’t want to miss Staff Writer/Photographer Zack Steen’s series, “Downtown Corinth - Where Old Meets New.” Sunday’s segment will be about dining and entertainment.

Reluctant grandparents veto couple’s plan to start a family D E A R ABBY: I have been married for almost five years, and my husband and I recentAbigail ly decided to Van Buren try to have a baby. I am reDear Abby ally excited about the possibility of being a mom. My problem is, my parents and his parents don’t want to be grandparents. I will be 30 this year, and they keep telling me I should wait until I’m 40 to have kids. I have endometriosis, and I know if I wait too long it will be even harder to get pregnant. On top of all the pressure our families are putting me under, I just found out my sister has been married almost a year and hasn’t told anyone. I don’t want to disappoint our families or force something on them they are not ready for. I’m not sure what to do now. I want my husband and me to be happy. Any advice would be appreciated. -- STRESSED OUT IN OHIO DEAR STRESSED: I know

you want to be a good daughter, but you are allowing your parents (and in-laws) to weigh in on a decision that should be yours and your husband’s alone. Your reason for not wanting to postpone motherhood makes sense. Understand that not everyone wants to be a grandparent and be glad you’re finding out upfront that the parents will not be baby-sitting. Many disappointed readers have written me after the fact to express their dismay when they realized it. Take from this the lesson that you must live your own life. And, by the way, so should your sister. If there are consequences from her elopement, she should experience them. But under no circumstances should you allow yourself to be dragged into her drama. DEAR ABBY: I have a wonderful husband I love deeply and can’t imagine my life without. We have a beautiful marriage. We never fight or really even argue. We have been together for 11 years and only during the last couple of years has he started doing something that troubles

me. In the afternoon or evening, if I need to go to the store -- or anywhere for that matter -- he gets upset and gives me the silent treatment and doesn’t want me to go. I trust him and let him do whatever he wants. I have never given him a reason to not trust me, so why does it make him so angry if I need to run to the store? I feel I deserve the same respect and trust that I show him. How do I make him see how much it hurts me for him to act like this? -- FEELING MISTRUSTED IN THE SOUTH DEAR FEELING MISTRUSTED: What you are describing is a red flag that if ignored could ruin your beautiful marriage. Your husband’s insecurity and need to control you may stem from the fact that he has been hiding something from you. Tell him that you love him, but for the sake of your marriage, the two of you should go to couples counseling. 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.

You won’t answer the phone just because it rings or act on every electronic impulse demanding attention. You’ll enjoy a few distractions -distractions of your own choosing! GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Either your prayers will be answered, or that thing you do that’s a little like praying will be linked to some interesting results. Tonight, hone social skills, including the art of making a powerful entrance and a smooth exit. CANCER (June 22-July 22). For today, “Why?” is not the right question to ask. The question “How?” on the other hand, could change your life. It’s also a lucky day for running into the exact people who know about the “how,” and you should definitely

take lots of notes. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You refuse to think of yourself as a victim of circumstance. There are alternatives to explore -- hard to see when you’re invested in one way of being, but they are there nonetheless. Decide to see them. You always have choices. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Sometimes all it takes is a simple decision to feel different. It’s as though you’re an actor and the director has just walked up to you and told you to play the scene confident, empowered and ready to make the next winning move. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The potential for trouble lies in reacting to events in an emotional and unthinking way. Take a breath and be thoughtful and deliberate in your response instead and you’ll avoid the trouble altogether. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Embrace the paradise of imperfect circumstances. Right now, exactly as you are, you’re good enough to do what you really want to do, to the best of your ability. Also, you’ll never be more

ready. Go! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are people you you’re not happy around and yet can’t avoid altogether. When you have to deal with them, involve others. More people will dilute the power of one negative influence. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you contradict someone, or even yourself, the energy of conflict will be ignited. This isn’t necessary! Acknowledge the things you can’t agree on. The validation may be all that’s necessary to discharge the bad energy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be given gifts today, although they may be disguised as other things. Your definition of the term “gift” will be thereby expanded. Whether something is a gift or a bane is best determined over time. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You know what fun is to you. Stick with that today and the smiles keep coming, whereas subscribing to other people’s idea of fun might actually make you feel irritated, uncomfortable or worse.

Corinth pitcher Jackson Lancaster delivers to a West Lauderdale hitter on Thursday in the MHSAA State Baseball Championships at Trustmark Park in Pearl.

Corinth/West Lauderdale Game 2 After taking a 5-3 decision from No. 3 West Lauderdale Wednesday in game one of the best-ofthree 4A state championship baseball series at Trustmark Park No. 7 Corinth found itself needKent ing four runs Mohundro to extend the contest headSports Editor ing into the top of the seventh in game two Thursday afternoon. But following a Kerrigan Maness single to open the final inning the Warriors were unable to take advantage and fell 11-7 to the Knights, forcing a decisive game 3 on Saturday at 1 p.m. Corinth won the postgame coin-toss and will be the home team for the rubber match. “We had that one good inning but in a series against a team like them (West Lauderdale) you’ve gotta have more than that,” said head coach Rob Scarbrough. “We missed several routine plays today that we usually make so we have got to do a better job defensively to win on Saturday.” Corinth starter Jackson Lancaster- who entered the game with a sub-1 ERA and was among the state leaders

in strikeouts- was touched early after the Tribe had taken a 1-0 lead in the top of the first. And Lancaster himself was responsible for that run. Kerrigan Maness walked and was able to reach third base on a botched pickoﬀ attempt by Knights’ starting pitcher Tyler Lantz. Lancaster then grounded out to first allowing Maness to score from third on a fielders choice. West Lauderdale responded loudly in the bottom half of the frame pushing two runs across the plate on three hits to take a 2-1 lead. With the bases loaded and nobody out Lantz singled to centerfield driving home John Ross Briggs to knot the game at a run apiece. Knights leftfielder Jordan Herrington followed by reaching on a fielders choice with centerfielder Cole Hurst crossing the plate to make it 2-1 West Lauderdale after an inning. Corinth leftfielder Alex Trice singled to begin the second but Baylor Frazier popped out to Lantz on a bunt attempt, Spencer Davis struck out and Spencer Lee grounded out to Briggs at second. West Lauderdale added another run in the bottom of the second when Briggs scored from third on a sacrifice fly to center by Knights third baseman Jake Mason making it 3-1 West

Lauderdale. “This is kind of like a heavyweight boxing match with two good teams and when the other team puts a few runs on the board your team has to respond and we just didn’t do that well enough today,” Scarbrough stated. With the score still 3-1 in the bottom half of the fourth the Knights scored three more runs that seemed to convince the Knights crowd the game was in hand. But Corinth said ‘not so fast’ and responded with the huge fifth inning Scarbrough referred to earlier. Avery Davis began the rally with a simple single to the gap in right-centerfield. Spencer Lee followed with a single to center before Trevon Knight bunted his way on and everyone was safe. With the bases juiced and no outs West Lauderdale head coach Jerry Boatman visited the mound to calm Lantz down but as it turned out the Warriors had plans to knock Lantz out of the game. And they did. Kyle Crigger stepped to the plate and lined a hard single down the third base line that rolled all the way to the wall clearing the bases and drawing Corinth to within 6-4 just like that. Maness then singled to left scoring Crigger and the Warriors had cut the Knights lead to 6-5.

At that point Boatner decided enough was enough and pulled Lantz in favor of Kameron Partridge. Lancaster greeted the new hurler with a single to right moving Maness over to second. Hayden Scarbrough reached on a fielder’s choice but Lancaster was out at second while Maness moved to third. Will Agnew — who came in to pinch run for Lancaster — stole second putting runners on second and third with one out. Trice then went down on strikes before Frazier singled to shallow center just beyond the dirt to score Maness and Agnew and the Warriors found themselves ahead 7-6. The large Corinth crowd was electric and the adopted shark mascot was dancing in the student section. But there were still two innings to play and things went south from there for the Tribe. Just as fast as Corinth had rallied from a 6-1 deficit to take a 7-6 lead the Knights bounced back to score four times in the bottom of the fifth and added an insurance run in the sixth to claim the decision. “West Lauderdale has been here before and we knew they weren’t going away without a Please see GAME 2 | 11A

LeBron, Cavs have reeling Celtics in must-win for Game 2 BY KYLE HIGHTOWER Associated Press

BOSTON — LeBron James did pretty much whatever he wanted to against the Celtics in the Cavaliers’ dominating win in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals. He was efficient, scoring from the outside, rolling downhill and getting to the rim at will, passing to teammates and locking down Boston’s scorers when called upon. With home-court advantage gone, the Celtics face a virtual must-win Game 2 on Friday night. Boston must find a way to slow down James while not getting eaten up by a supporting cast, which other than Kevin Love’s big game , didn’t produce at its usual high rate. Oh, and there’s extra motivation for Cleveland — now 9-0 in these playoffs — which could earn another long rest if it makes quick work of the Celtics. But here’s the rub for top-seeded Boston on Friday night: James said he wasn’t even playing at peak condition after Cleveland’s 10-day layoff between rounds. “I felt OK last night,” James said Thursday. “I knew I wouldn’t feel that great after the game, and I don’t feel that great right now. ... But I should be much better (Friday).” Better than 38 points, nine rebounds and seven assists? Good luck with that Boston. Still, James said the Cavs are mentally preparing for the Celtics’ best shot in Game 2. “There’s going to be some adjustments made

from both sides. We have to be ready for it,” he said. “Obviously, we don’t know the exact adjustments, but we know they’re going to make adjustments. That’s what good teams do, and we have to be ready for whatever they bring to the table.” Most of the damage in Game 1 was done by only two players — James and Love. Kyrie Irving had just 11 points on 4-of-11 shooting, and usually dependable sharpshooters J.R. Smith and Kyle Korver were a combined 2 for 8 as coach Tyronn Lue used a diﬀerent second unit to start the second quarter with James resting. A loss Friday would also leave Boston with the daunting proposition of having to win four out of five games to take the series — a nearly impossible task against a team that since James returned to Cleveland in 2014-15 has a 33-4 playoﬀ record against Eastern Conference opponents. Celtics coach Brad Stevens said his optimism remains high, and that he was “really encouraged” by his team’s performance over the final 18 minutes of the game. It included getting within 11 points with less than 2 minutes to play. But if the Celtics are going to pick themselves up, it must start with AllStar Isaiah Thomas, who scored 17 points, but had to work for every single one just to finish 7 for 19 from the field. He also had a team-high four turnovers — another red flag for Boston’s prospects.

Murphy, Newtonâ€™s laws are governing principles of life According to Liverpool ship owner and engineer Alfred Holt at an 1877 engineering society meeting: â€œIt is found that anything that can go wrong at sea generally does go wrong sooner or later, so it is not to be wondered that owners prefer the safe to the scientific .... SuďŹƒcient stress can hardly be laid on the advantages of simplicity. The human factor cannot be safely neglected in planning machinery. If attention is to be obtained, the engine must be such that the engineer will be disposed to attend to it.â€? The concept may be as old as humanity. Perhaps we know it more informally as Murphyâ€™s Law. In 1949, at Edwardâ€™s Air Force Base, Captain Edward A. Murphy was working on a project designed to discern the amount of sudden deceleration a body can withstand in a crash. One day he discovered that a transducer was wired wrong and in response to the technician responsible, he said, â€œIf there is any way to do it wrong, heâ€™ll find it.â€? It is always important to remember this unofficial rule of life. The upswings and downturns in life are, after all, much akin to riding a roller coaster at Six Flags. There are great sweeps upward, with much momentum to make it to the top, but after a while, the old adage that correlates with Newtonâ€™s Law of physics applies: â€œWhat goes up must come down.â€? For me, the last couple of weeks have fallen under the rule these two â€œlaws.â€? It began two weeks ago on Friday, when I came home from school, excit-

ed, for one, because it was almost the end of the school year, and my instrucStacy tional duJones ties at the high school The I Downtowner where teach were winding down for summer. It was also a mild, sunny day as I made the 20-minute drive home with the top lowered on my convertible, and I was anticipating the Cinco De Mayo Block Party on my street. Because I live on the street, I would have a front row seat for the festivities, which included food, drink, and a soundstage with a band. I didnâ€™t even have to leave home. The block party was enjoyable and would have made a relaxing way to wind down for the weekend. However, about 11 p.m. that evening, my mother phoned me. She has been prone to suďŹ€ering vertigo in the past, but on this occasion, she had a horrible bout. My evening ended with a trip to the hospital emergency room. Finally, at 5 oâ€™clock Saturday morning, she was admitted to a room, and I went home to sleep from 5:30 until 11 a.m. Then I had to wake up and get ready because I had plans to attend an event in Nashville with a friend. Sunday morning, I awakened with upper respiratory problems: a cold, allergies, a sinus infection, or some combination of any of the above. I spent Sunday evening in the hospital with my mother before returning to my classroom Monday morning to administer

a test to my high school students. The following Monday, the cycle of events began to shift. I had finished teaching my college composition class for UT Martin and submitted my final grades online that morning. By middle of the day, I had graded all assignments for my high school studentsâ€”except for a few stragglers. That afternoon my mother was released from the hospital. Thus, this week, life has begun turning again toward the positive. My mother is still somewhat weak but seems to be regaining her strength. I am finishing up my last week of school, working in solitary fashion in my classroom, as my high school students have completed finals. All students in my three classes satisfactorily completed all assignments, with all passing. I am now preparing to witness my 44 seniors receive a high school diploma at the end of this week. Of course, I cannot grow too smug. I must remember the laws propounded by both Newton and Murphy. While I donâ€™t know any folks with the last name of Newton, my high school principalâ€™s last name is Murphy. I wonder if, as a potential insider, he could rework that unoďŹƒcial law, making it more advantageous to all of usâ€Ś

Look over your final resting place now When I was a teenager and my mom was still living, I can remember when she would gather her three youngest children and go for a ride. I reGary m e m b e r Andrews v i v i d l y that she Devotionals would almost always drive thru the cemetery where she would be buried. She wanted to see her final resting place when she went home to be with the Lord. Not so long ago my wife and I visited the church we attended several years

Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – Psalm 23:1-6; Monday – Matthew 11:25-30; Tuesday – Exodus 33:12-17; Wednesday - John 16:31-33; Thursday – Proverbs 3:1-6; Friday – Mark 6:31; Saturday – Ecclesiastes 12:6-7 back and visited her parent’s graves in the adjoining cemetery. As of now it will be our final resting place when we go home to be with Lord. I guess I never understood why mom wanted to see the cemetery, but it makes more sense

to me now than it did then. As we looked around among the graves we would think of the people we knew in the past and how we missed them. A lot of time has passed since we last saw them and seeing their names engraved on a tombstone made us realize that life is short and that one day our time will come for us to go to our final resting place on earth. We are told in Isaiah 57:1-2; “The righteous perishes, and no man takes it to heart; merciful men are taken away, while no one considers that the righteous is taken away from evil. He shall enter into peace; they

shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.” As we walk this earth, even though we may be one of the righteous, we are going to suﬀer oppression and distress at what is going on around us. We are going to worry and suﬀer anxiety until we realize that when we die in faith that we are going to enjoy our eternal rest and reward. As a teenager I knew where my faith was, but didn’t realize that any day could be my last day on earth. My mom realized her time was short and she would be free of the troubles that are created on earth and she would enter

the gates of Heaven and be with the Lord Jesus Christ. Her earthly body would go into a resting place and she wouldn’t be bothered by the sins of the world anymore. I now realize why she visited the cemetery and wanted to view her grave site. She loved flowers and always wondered if someone would be around to keep them on her grave. I guess now I wonder the same thing as I have walked through the grass that will probably be my final earthly resting place also. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters

compared to what lies within us.” How true this is when we know Jesus personally because nothing else matters then. Prayer: Father God I know that when you are ready for me you will bring me home to be with you. I thank you for the ones who will put me in my final earthly home to be free from the snares and sins of the world. Amen.

Remembering Martin Luther’s contribution to modern literacy BY RICHARD GUNDERMAN Indiana University

(THE CONVERSATION) — This year marks the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s famous 95 Theses, which helped spark the founding of the Reformation and the division of Christianity into Protestantism and Catholicism. The 95 Theses critiqued the church’s sale of indulgences, which Luther regarded as a form of corruption. By Luther’s time, indulgences had evolved into payments that were said to reduce punishment for sins. Luther believed that such practices only interfered with genuine repentance and discouraged people from giving to the poor. One of Luther’s most important theological contributions was the “priesthood of all believers,” which implied that clerics possessed no more dignity than ordinary people. Less known is the crucial role Luther played in making the case for ordinary people to read often and well. Unlike the papacy and its defenders, who were producing their writings in Latin, Luther reached out to Germans in their mother tongue, substantially enhancing

the accessibility of his written ideas. In my teaching of philanthropy, Luther’s promotion of literacy is one of the historic events I often discuss with my students.

Early years

Born in Germany in 1483, Luther followed the wishes of his father to study law. Once, while caught in a terrible thunderstorm, he vowed that if he were saved, he would become a monk. Indeed, Luther later joined the austere Augustinian order, and became both a priest and a doctor of theology. Later he developed objections to many church practices. He protested the promotion of indulgences, the buying and selling of clerical privileges, and the accumulation of substantial wealth by the church while peasants barely survived. Legend has it that on Oct. 31, 1517, Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the church in Wittenberg, the town where he was based. He was branded an outlaw for refusing to recant his teachings. In 1521, Pope Leo X excommunicated Luther from the Roman Church. His patron, Frederick of Sax-

ony, saved Luther from further reprisal and had him taken in secret to a castle, where he remained for two years. It was during that time that Luther produced an immensely influential translation of the New Testament into German.

Impact of Luther’s writing

Gutenberg’s earlier introduction of the printing press in 1439 made possible the rapid dissemination of Luther’s works throughout much of Europe, and their impact was staggering. Luther’s collected works run to 55 volumes. It is estimated that between 1520 and 1526, some 1,700 editions of Luther’s works were printed. Of the six to seven million pamphlets printed during this time, more than a quarter were Luther’s works, many of which played a vital role in propelling the reformation forward. Thanks to Luther’s translation of the Bible, it became possible for German-speaking people to stop relying on church authorities and instead read the Bible for themselves. Luther argued that ordinary people were not only capable of inter-

preting the scriptures for themselves, but that in doing so they stood the best chance of hearing God’s word. He wrote, “Let the man who would hear God speak read Holy Scripture.” Luther’s Bible helped form a common German dialect. Prior to Luther, people from diﬀerent regions of present-day Germany often experienced great diﬃculty understanding one another. Luther’s Bible translation promoted a single German vernacular, helping to bring people together around a common tongue.

Expanding literacy

This view, combined with the wide availability of scripture, shifted responsibility for scriptural interpretation from clerics to the laity. Luther wanted ordinary people to assume more responsibility for reading the Bible. In promoting his point of view, Luther helped to provide one of the most eﬀective arguments for universal literacy in the history of Western civilization. At a time when most people worked in farming, reading was not necessary to maintain a livelihood.

But Luther wanted to remove the language barrier so that everyone could read the Bible “without hindrance.” His rationale for wanting people both to learn to read and to read regularly was, from his point of view, among the most powerful imaginable – that reading it for themselves would bring them closer to God. For much of Luther’s life, his remarkable output in theological treatises was exceeded only by his Bible commentaries. He believed that nothing could substitute for direct and ongoing encounters with scripture, which he both advocated for and helped to shape through his detailed commentaries.

Reading to interpret truth

Luther had many reasons to favor the dissemination of learning. He was a university professor. His 95 Theses were intended as an academic disputation. His teaching and scholarship played a crucial role in the development of his theology. Finally, he recognized the crucial role students would play in carrying his movement forward. So powerfully did Luther’s influence rever-

berate down through the ages that, during a visit to Germany in 1934, Rev. Michael King Sr. chose to change both his and his son’s name to Martin Luther King. MLK Jr., namesake of the great German reformer, would make full use of the power of free speech in catalyzing the American civil rights movement. In posting his 95 Theses, Luther was encouraging a vigorous exchange of ideas. The best community is not the one that suppresses dissent but one that challenges ideas it finds objectionable through rigorous argumentation. It is largely for this reason that the founders of the United States took so seriously freedom of religion, free association and the protection of a free press. Luther trusted ordinary people to discern the truth. All they needed was the opportunity to interpret what they read for themselves. (This article was originally published on The Conversation.

Husband needs to focus on his emotions WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: Six weeks ago, my wife of 14 years and the mother of my two kids told me that our marriage is over. She said that for the past several years, we’ve been growing apart. She is not willing to see a marriage counselor because she is already at peace with this decision. This revelation blindsided me. I started working from the house five years ago so I could be more involved with the kids and to help my wife focus more on her career. I have also managed to make a good income through a business I started. While I have been working from home, my wife has been excelling in her career. She recently received a promotion and a raise. The past few weeks have been a challenge. We want to try to shelter the kids from this for as long as possible. We’re still living in the same house, but I’m sleeping in the spare room. She agreed to give this a try for six months. I have no idea what happens after that. Originally, I had hoped that if I stayed in the house, my wife might see some tiny spark of what we had and decide that it’s worth fighting for. But recently, she said that I need to accept that it’s over. She is no longer wearing her wedding ring and is not even willing to hold my hand when we pray at dinner, yet she still expects me to play my part when it comes to interac-

Dear Annie tions with our friends outside the home. I still love my wife and would do anything to save our marriage, but living with her without truly living with her may be more than I can take. If all hope is lost, is it better for our kids if I continue to live a lie and just suﬀer in silence? — Trying to Save My Marriage Dear Trying: I’m so sorry you’re going through this. The torrent of emotions you’re experiencing is too much for any person to process alone. Although your wife isn’t willing to go to counseling, I urge you to seek some form of counseling on your own — whether from a therapist or a trusted religious adviser. Children can sense when things are wrong, so you aren’t doing them any favors by “suﬀering in silence.” The best thing you can do for them is to focus first and foremost on your own mental health during this time of immense stress. This will help you eventually reach a place where you can have a good relationship with their mother

as a co-parent, if not as a spouse. Dear Annie: I read your column regularly. Without a doubt, your advice is consistently above par. But I question your response to “Heartbroken Mom,” the very unhappy new mother who has gone back to work. Twelve weeks is hardly enough time for a mom to recover after giving birth, let alone go oﬀ to work. As a seasoned grandmother, I say that six months of recovery time would be about right. This young sweet mother is probably experiencing some serious after-birth depression. She needs to see her doctor ASAP. She asks, “When does it get easier?” It won’t, as long as she is emotionally and mentally stressed at work. Please, Annie, send her some additional advice! — Joan AFF Dear Joan: From my understanding, “Heartbroken Mom” isn’t experiencing postpartum depression; rather, she’s frustrated that going back to work has meant missing out on precious moments with her daughter. However, I hear your concern. I would urge any new mothers who are feeling depressed to talk to their doctors immediately. Postpartum depression aﬀects more than 1 in 10 women and is dangerous if left untreated.
