Trains roar through Corinth at 40 mph Railroad boosts speed limits BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Freight train speed limit has been increased through some of the busiest crossings in the city. Norfolk Southern train speed limits were recently raised from 25 m.p.h. to a maximum of 40 m.p.h. The company operates the east-west line that travels through Corinth from Memphis to Charleston, S.C. An average of 31 trains pass through Corinth on this line each day. The public crossings affected by the speed increase include Linden Street, Fillmore Street, Franklin Street, Taylor Street, Madison Street and South Parkway. “The decision was made to increase the speed limit to help expedite the movement of freight trains through Corinth,”
said Susan Terpay, Director of Public Relations for Norfolk Southern. “The change is expected to improve public traffic flow and grade crossing safety by increasing train traffic fluidity.” According to Terpay, statistics show that more highwayrail grade crossing collisions and traffic delays occur at slower train speeds. “The warning devices at the each of crossings have also been adjusted to properly activate when the faster moving trains are approaching,” she added. Trains will often slow their speed when special events, like the Green Market or a festival, are occurring in the vicinity of a crossing.

Absentee voting time nears New award honors BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
With about six weeks to go until the primary election day, absentee ballots will soon be available, and the voter registration deadline is near. The parties have finalized the ballots, and the Circuit Clerk’s Office is waiting for the state to make the final preparations. Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell anticipates the ballots will be ready around June 29. July 4 will be the deadline for people who are not registered to vote to register and be eligible for the primary on Aug. 4. The clerk’s office will keep the doors open until 7 p.m. June
29 through July 2 for voter registration. The office will close on Friday, July 3, for Independence Day, but will be open from 8 a.m. until noon on Saturday, July 4, for the final day of registration. While the slate of county races is stirring interest in this year’s elections, the same cannot yet be said of the state offices — Caldwell said he is “not hearing anything at all” about those contests. But the office has fielded numerous calls from residents wanting to know about absentee ballots. In other election preparations, letters will be mailed to North Corinth voters about the
change of the precinct location from the former SportsPlex property to the North Corinth Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. The Aug. 4 primary is the first election in which North Corinth voters need to go to the church. Caldwell said signs will be placed at both locations to make sure voters know where to go. The decision was made to move the precinct when the future of the property was uncertain earlier this year. Caldwell believes it will be important to remind voters about voter identification.

Near-death experience creates message of hope BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
It took a near death experience in a crystal meth explosion to help one man change his way of life from drug addictions to living a life for Jesus. Rodney Williams will come to Corinth to tell his life story at a Living Free Ministries meeting Monday, June 22. The meeting will begin at 6:45 p.m. at the Living Free building.
Williams has written his biography “Club Meth to Christ” as a way to tell his life story and maybe help others that have faced similar problems in their lives. “I began smoking marijuana at the age of 12 and then began to drink alcohol when I got to high school,” said Williams. “There are people who will say Please see MESSAGE | 2A

“Having a neatly trimmed yard, flowers and trees have all been shown to enhance business and the community.”
jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
An attractive business is good for the community and brings in more dollars. That’s the drive behind Keep Corinth-Alcorn Beautiful’s new monthly Business Beautification Award, which aims to help entice business owners to keep things tidy. “Having a neatly trimmed yard, flowers and trees have all been shown to enhance business and the community,” said Community Development Director Andrea Rose. “We want to recognize those businesses who have consistently done what it takes to keep their establishments looking great.” Each monthly winner chosen by KC-AB will get a $50 gift certificate to a local nursery. The first honoree will be announced in July, and nominations may be made now.

“Although it is not standard policy to slow trains for special events,” Terpay said. “It is important that event organizers continue to notify Norfolk Southern of any special events where people may be crossing tracks.” Norfolk Southern teamed up with Kansas City Southern, who operates the less busy north-south line through Corinth, for Operation Lifesaver. The two companies conducted a railroad safety crossing blitz in April handing out safety information to passersby at the Fillmore Street crossing. “We used this time to remind motorists to obey railroad crossing signals and warnings and to use caution when approaching all highway-rail grade crossings,” said Terpay.

Unemployment rate up slightly despite job gains BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — With people flooding into Mississippi’s labor force, the state’s job market couldn’t quite keep up in May. Mississippi’s unemployment rate crept up to 6.7 percent from 6.6 percent in April, ending five straight months of falling jobless rates. The number of people who told surveyors they had a job increased by more than 6,000, but the unemployment rate rose because even more people entered the labor force. Mississippi’s jobless rate in May 2014 was 7.7 percent The report found 84,000 Mississippians
were unemployed in May, up slightly from April and down about 11,000 from a year ago. Since December, more than 40,000 additional people have entered Mississippi’s job market. That steep ascent reversed a three-year decline in worker numbers that pushed down the labor force by more than 9 percent. Nationally, economists have said that a growing labor force is a sign of a strengthening recovery, as people who gave up looking for work come off the sidelines as job opportunities improve. The figures — adjusted to cancel out seasonal changes — were released Friday by the U.S. Labor
Department. Unemployment rates rose in 25 states in May, fell in nine, and were flat in 16. Mississippi still has the nation’s fifth-highest jobless rate, but that ranking has fallen from the nation’s worst a year ago. West Virginia, at 7.2 percent, had the highest unemployment rate among the states, while Nebraska had the lowest, at 2.6 percent The national unemployment rate ticked up to 5.5 percent in May from 5.4 percent in April. It was down from 6.4 percent a year ago. The unemployment rate is calculated by a survey asking how many people are looking for a job.
me morphine and sent me to a burn center in south Alabama.” Living Free founder Tommy Wilson said that he is looking forward to hearing Williams speak about his story. “I’ve heard many good things about Rodney,” said Wilson. “They tell me he preaches fast and that he is anointed by the Holy Spirit.” Williams realized that he must change his habits to stay alive and stay out of prison. “God healed me and got me headed in the right direction,” said Williams. “I am now excited to tell my story that God can save you from a life of sin.” The lifestyle Williams
was leading at one time in his life led to around 40 incidents with law enforcement. While Williams has never been in prison, he has developed a prison ministry to offer hope to inmates. A graduate of Home of Grace, Williams served eight years as a pastor at Pathway Baptist Church before going into fulltime evangelism. Williams’ life story has been featured nationally on “The 700 Club” and American Family Radio. Wilson said anyone who has a problem with meth or a family member who has a problem with meth should come to hear the positive message Williams will bring at Living Free.

Today in History Today is Sunday, June 21, the 172nd day of 2015. There are 193 days left in the year. Summer arrives at 12:38 p.m. EDT. This is Father’s Day.
Today’s Highlight in History: On June 21, 1788, the United States Constitution went into effect as New Hampshire became the ninth state to ratify it.
On this date: In 1913, Georgia “Tiny” Broadwick became the first woman to parachute from an airplane as she jumped over Los Angeles. In 1932, heavyweight Max Schmeling lost a title fight rematch in New York by decision to Jack Sharkey, prompting Schmeling’s manager, Joe Jacobs, to exclaim: “We was robbed!” In 1942, German forces led by Generaloberst (Colonel General) Erwin Rommel captured the Libyan city of Tobruk during World War II. (Following his victory, Rommel was promoted to Field Marshal; Tobruk was retaken by the Allies in November 1942.) In 1955, the David Lean movie “Summertime” starring Katharine Hepburn and Rossano Brazzi opened in New York. In 1963, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Montini was chosen during a conclave of his fellow cardinals to succeed the late Pope John XXIII; the new pope took the name Paul VI. In 1964, civil rights workers Michael H. Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James E. Chaney were slain in Philadelphia, Mississippi; their bodies were found buried in an earthen dam six weeks later. In 1970, former Indonesian President Sukarno died at 69. In 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Miller v. California, ruled that states may ban materials found to be obscene according to local standards. In 1982, a jury in Washington D.C. found John Hinckley Jr. not guilty by reason of insanity in the shootings of President Ronald Reagan and three other men. In 1985, scientists announced that skeletal remains exhumed in Brazil were those of Nazi war criminal Josef Mengele. The science-fiction fantasy “Cocoon,” directed by Ron Howard, was released by Twentieth Century Fox. In 1989, a divided Supreme Court ruled that burning the American flag as a form of political protest was protected by the First Amendment.
Ten years ago: Forty-one years to the day after three civil rights workers were beaten and shot to death in Mississippi, Edgar Ray Killen, an 80-year-old former Ku Klux Klansman, was found guilty of manslaughter. (Killen was sentenced to 60 years in prison.) President George W. Bush met with Vietnamese Prime Minister Phan Van Khai, the highest ranking Vietnamese official to visit the White House since the end of the war.

School board names transportation director BOONEVILLE — Prentiss County school board members
appointed a new transportation director during their most recent meeting. Hills Chapel Elementary School Principal Nicky Marshall was formally named district transportation director in addition to his duties as principal. The district has been without a director since the retirement last year of director Bobby Johnson. Board members agreed the individual school principals will continue to be responsible for managing busing for their schools. Marshall will be in charge of handling all required federal and state paperwork for the district’s’ transportation system, a role he has been
performing since Johnson’s retirement. Marshall said he’s glad to be able to help with the work and told the board he didn’t feel it was necessary to receive the extra $5,000 per year supplement for acting as director, but board members agreed if he was performing the role and working the extra hours required to do the job he should be given the title and compensation.

Black churches targeted Salon opening benefit due to local importance to help Junior Auxiliary BY JESSE J. HOLLAND Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The black church has long been the cornerstone and sanctuary for African-American life. It’s also long been a target for racists and white supremacists trying to strike blows against the African-American psyche. The latest attack came Wednesday in Charleston, South Carolina, when 21-yearold Dylann Storm Roof joined a prayer meeting inside historic Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church and, according to authorities, shot nine people dead, including the pastor, the Rev. Clementa Pinckney, and other ministers. Why Roof targeted that particular church is not yet known. A friend of the suspect said Roof told him that he felt black people were “taking over the world” and that something needed to be done for the white race. What is clear is that in the days since the carnage inside one of the nation’s oldest black churches, other black churches have begun gathering their faithful to process the tragedy, fortify themselves for the journey toward forgiveness and renew their commitments to the social activism that has made them targets for hate through the ages. “Notions of freedom, notions of hope, notions of leadership, notions of education, notions of how one creates a strategy to counter a strategy of oppression came out of the black church,” said Rex Ellis, associate director for curatorial affairs at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture.
At historic Metropolitan AME Church in the nation’s capital, a multiracial, interfaith crowd gathered Friday to remember the Charleston victims. Metropolitan’s pastor, the Rev. William H. Lamar IV, led the public vigil at the church, which was founded in 1838 and is the oldest continuously held black-owned institution in the District of Columbia. Large photos of each victim were raised during the service. Those in attendance, some wiping away tears, listened intently as the Rev. Tony Lee, a pastor at Community of Hope AME Church in the Maryland suburbs, encouraged his audience not to feel defeated by what happened in Charleston. “Sometimes, it takes great pain to bring great healing,” Lee said. A handful of people rose in jubilation. The African-American church has been around since at least the late 1700s, providing a place where weary slaves could go for comfort, and fiery abolitionists and civil rights activists could call for change. Emanuel was one of those churches. Jon Hale, an assistant professor at the College of Charleston, said the AME church through history “symbolizes faith, freedom but also resistance. So under very oppressive conditions, under slavery and then legal segregation ... the AME church permitted a space for AfricanAmericans to practice their faith on their own terms.” Emanuel church was founded after Morris Brown, a free, black shoemaker and a Methodist, walked out of a predominantly white Methodist church in Charleston in 1816, an AME church website states.

Continuing the Paul Mitchell brand’s spirit of giving, the new Paul Mitchell Vibe Salon of Corinth will hold a grand opening celebration on Friday, June 26, with all proceeds to benefit Junior Auxiliary. “We want to use the time to let the community know what we are all about and that we are there for them,” said Corinth Director Kelly Rine. “We will be raising money for different charities throughout the year.” The fund-raising event will kick off with a ribbon cutting at 10 a.m. and live remote broadcasting by the Rock 100 radio station. “As a special thank you to our customers, all our services will be 50 percent off that day,” said Rine. “The radio station will be giving away concert tickets, tshirts and other prizes to participants.” Five lucky winners will walk away with $100 each as owners Mark and Emily Herrington have pledged to distribute $500. “We are partnering with the Wine Barn and Pizza Grocery to do complimentary wine and cheese plates for our guests to enjoy as well as Arby’s and CocaCola,” said the director. “The festivities will last until 1:30 p.m., but the salon will remain open until 6 p.m.” In addition to discounted services, the salon will also be giving away products and have products available for purchase, in-house.

The Herringtons saw my vision and felt this was where they were led to open their next salon, as we are a sister salon to the Paul Mitchell Vibe in Tupelo. It’s through both mine and their dreams and goals that we are here. I wouldn’t be here without them. They have truly been a blessing to me. I look forward to being here for the home stretch of my career.” “It truly blows my mind to think all this started with two guys, a dream, a land-line phone and $700 dollars,” she added. “Paul Mitchell has now become a huge industry and created a big name for themselves. Our goal is to stay true to those humble beginnings and to pass on our blessings through fund-raisers such as this one.”
JACKSON — The Justice Department said Friday it has reached a settlement with the city of Meridian over policies that had allowed students to be detained without probable cause or legal representation — policies mainly affecting black and disabled children. The government had brought suit in October 2012 against Meridian and Lauderdale County, alleging there was a “school-toprison pipeline” in east Mississippi that locked up students for minor infractions like flatulence or vulgar language. The state of Mississippi is a party to the Meridian settlement, which must be approved by the U.S. District Court in Jackson.

Vanita Gupta, deputy assistant attorney general for civil rights, said in a news release that the settlement addresses the complaint against the city of Meridian only. The allegations against Lauderdale County and the Lauderdale County Youth Court have not been resolved and remain in litigation. The Meridian Public School District was not named as a defendant in the lawsuit. In 2013, a federal judge approved a deal between the district and the Justice Department, known as a consent decree. The agreement calls for the district to fully comply with several measures to end discriminatory punishment by the end of the 2016-2017 school year.

Corinth, Miss.
Remembering the past, celebrating the future “Hey Daddy, how old were you when your Daddy died?” my son Matt asked me recently. I didn’t even hesitate. “Twenty-two,” I replied. “Man,” my son said. “You were young.” Indeed. I matured very quickly after my father passed. Got married, bought a house, started a career, started a family. The loss of the Rev. Albert “Al” Frank Boehler Sr. of Milan, Tenn., some 34 years ago would help shape me into the father I would become. Losing Dad was the first of many grieffilled time periods in my life. Mom never remarried and had many good years as a happy widow until cancer took her. Both Mark my brothers and sister all died tragically Boehler and before their prime. But this Father’s Day I’m not going to Sidetracks dwell on what is no more. I will celebrate the memory of my dad and what has happened since he knew his son at the tender age of 22. My wife Dawn and I share five kids, five grandkids and another on the way. We are so blessed. I will celebrate the dads in my life — my son-in-law Matt Carpenter of Kossuth and the father of one grandson and son-in-law Chip Bradley of Selmer, Tenn., and father of another grandson. My son Matt is a father to my granddaughter. He has another girl due Aug. 16 — number six for this ole “Pop-Pop.” I celebrate being blessed with these young fathers in my life. And I want to celebrate the man who made it all possible — Al Boehler. This column was published on Dec. 15, 1983, when I was editor of the Independent Appeal. It was two years after my father died. I’d like to share a portion ... Small gestures can go a long way. A gift from my father was such a gesture. Quick. Words unspoken. Yet very assuring. I had just talked to my father on the phone. At the time, the call was the usual “hope you are feeling better” type conversation. The call means a great deal to me now. It would be the last time I would talk to my dad. I still remember the little chat we had that night. His quiet, gentle voice spoke softly as he said he was tired, yet felt “fine.” The next thing I know, my brother and myself were destined to Memphis late one night with the news my dad wasn’t doing very well. I didn’t really realize what was the matter. He had been in the hospital several times. A survivor of one major heart operation, surely he would survive another. My family huddled in the prayer room at the Intensive Care Unit. My sister from Knoxville, another from Jackson, Tenn., a brother from Milan and another from Florida had all journeyed to the hospital. My mother sensed what was to happen. My father was victorious in all those battles, but his flag of truce was hanging helplessly above his hospital bed. The end of the war was near. Just 57-years-old, I selfishly wasn’t finished with dad. I had some things I needed to say. My mom wanted everyone to go to his side. Hospital rules state only two visitors at a time and no more than a pair every hour. I didn’t want to go. I was afraid. I went last ... and only once. It was all I could stand. I gripped my daddy’s hand. He weakly responded. He knew I was there. His hand - with huge needle sticking in his vein - tried desperately to hold my hand. “Daddy?” I whispered. His head, full of hoses running in and out of his mouth and nose, turned slightly toward his youngest son’s voice. “Daddy?” I asked again. His glassy, blue eyes opened and looked at me. I was about to break. There was so much I wanted to say. “I love you,” was all I could utter. He nodded his head just enough to let me know he heard me. Then, with all the power in his weakened body, he winked at me. He winked. I escaped to the doorway, emotionally falling apart. I ached the most awful pain I had experienced in my life. The wink meant “good-bye.” My sister came to me and tears flooded my eyes. My father meant so much to me and I was about to lose him. We waited. We prayed. We cried. We wondered how long he would hang on. The doctor said he was still fighting to stay alive. The night grew painful with each passing moment. The news finally came after midnight. My father died. I thought I couldn’t cry anymore, but more tears came. Mother wanted to go back to his hospital bedside one last time. We gathered around his bed. My father lay motionless as we wept together. Memories flashed before my eyes. But Dad, I thought, I had more to tell you. Just hours before he had managed to wink at me. The wink means so much to me. Through that small gesture, my daddy was able to tell me he loved me just hours before he died. Visions of that wink will remain with me for the rest of my life. Try giving a wink - inexpensive, easy and lasting. A wink could last a lifetime. Today, I offer the same advice on this Father’s Day I suggested over three decades ago. My winks go out to the special fathers in my life - Chip, Matt B. and Matt C. They now carry the torch for the next generation. Share a wink today. Because I know. It will last a lifetime.

Hillary, you’re so yesterday In her reintroduction speech on Roosevelt Island in New York last Saturday, Hillary Clinton hit all the boilerplate liberal Democrat notes: The New Deal, big government, soak the rich, evil Wall Street ... you know the song because the music is from a familiar score. Speaking of songs, Hillary Clinton made reference to The Beatles’ “Yesterday” and tied it to the seemingly outdated ideas of the Republican Party. In light of what the country is facing, yesterday is looking increasingly better, particularly if one considers the foreign and domestic policies of Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush (minus some of the tax increases). While Hillary Clinton wants to channel The Beatles, there is another song called “Yesterday” that may not be as familiar, but better describes her failed policies, as well as those of President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry, who appear committed to an unverifiable nuclear deal with Iran. Country singer Roy Clark sang this “Yester-
day” song. Here are a few excerpts that might well be used to rebut HillCal ary ClinThomas ton: “Seems Columnist the love I’ve known has always been The most destructive kind Yes, that’s why now I feel so old Before my time.” That could describe Clinton’s relationship with her husband, but let’s not go there again. And then there’s this: “The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned I always built to last on weak and shifting sand.” Examples: Hillarycare, which was rejected by a Democratic Congress during her husband’s first term, the absence of any significant legislation while she was a senator from New York, the failed “re-set” with Russia, Benghazi, Middle East policy, including the rise of ISIS, the hidden emails, the refusal, so far, to re-
lease her medical records, which might shed light on her fall and hospitalization while she was secretary of state. Need I go on? Hillary Clinton succeeded as secretary of state in logging lots of airline miles at taxpayer expense, but no one seems to know what she actually accomplished. TV interviews of some of her supporters have produced no substantive answers to the question: “What has she done?” Back to “Yesterday.” “I never stopped to think what life was all about And every conversation I can now recall Concerns itself with me and nothing else at all.” That seems fairly descriptive. It has always been about Hillary and Bill, hasn’t it? And then the quite sad last line of the song: “There are so many songs in me that won’t be sung, I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue. The time has come for me to pay for Yesterday when I was young.” That “pay” will come
in next year’s election if Republicans don’t blow their opportunity by cowering in the face of the bogus “war on women” attack and retreat on social issues as the secular wing of the party continues to urge them to do. We only learn from the past. We can’t learn from the future because it hasn’t arrived. But we can help shape the future by not repeating the mistakes of yesterday, focusing instead on those things that have a track record of working. Democrats want to cling to yesterday’s ideology, the one promoted by Franklin Roosevelt during different times. So who is really living in the past? All Hillary Clinton has to offer is bigger government, higher taxes, more spending on failed programs and a lax morality that has eaten away at the moral underpinnings of the nation. To paraphrase FDR, the only thing we have to fear is Hillary Clinton, herself. (Readers may email Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribpub.com.)
Open meetings ruling turns 30 BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. Capitol Dome
JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on open meetings and the state College Board is 30 years old this year. The ruling removed any doubt the constitutionally created public bodies — including the state College Board — must comply with the Open Meeting Act. Justice Lenore Prather wrote in the 1985 unanimous decision: “The open meeting legislation is no intrusion into the decision-making power of the board. The Open Meetings Act was enacted for the benefit of the public and is to be construed liberally in favor of the public.” Will Bardwell, a Jackson attorney and president of the Mississippi Center for Freedom of Information, said the Open Meetings Act was “running straight into the wind of a long-existing culture of government secrecy, and the law was going to be only as pow-
erful as the Supreme Court made it.” “This decision was the moment when the Open Meetings Act grew teeth,” Barwell told The Associated Press in an email. Then why are some local and state boards still struggling with the concept? The Mississippi Ethics Commission’s website lists more than two dozen actions it has taken on complaints over open meeting issues. Among them were three rulings addressed “rolling quorums” and faulted the Lauderdale County Board of Supervisors, the mayor and board of aldermen of Yazoo City, and the Columbus City Council for splitting meetings into groups of less than a quorum to avoid letting the public in. Bardwell said that advocates of open meetings are still facing a lot of the same issues that the Supreme Court addressed. He said what the decision did was give open government advocates some great tools to use.
“Ideally, this anniversary would be an occasion for open government advocates to rededicate themselves to the idea of taking these conflicts to court. As the Board of Trustees case illustrates, litigation does more than solve just your problem. It also can result in precedent that can be used as ammunition many years later,” Bardwell said. “Unfortunately, the Mississippi Supreme Court hasn’t had occasion to invoke the Board of Trustees decision in more than 10 years, and that’s because these sorts of fights just aren’t taken to court very often anymore. I’d like to see that change,” Bardwell said. The College Board lawsuit was filed in 1983 by the owners of the Jackson newspapers. It was a turbulent time for higher education. The college desegregation lawsuit was filed by Jake Ayers Sr. in 1975. How the College Board was addressing desegregating higher education was discussed behind
closed doors with reporters camped outside. Closed meetings became standard practice — and became the basis of the lawsuit. Every monthly meeting was the same. College Board members would scatter after a meeting, sometimes ducking out back doors to beat reporters to elevators. The chases were reminiscent of the Keystone Kops of the silent movie era. The College Board’s argument was that, as a constitutionally created board with constitutional and statutory mandates to govern the universities, their constitutional duties conflict with the requirement of the Open Meeting Law. The board argued it could ignore the law in order for it to effectively function and perform its constitutional duty. The Supreme Court acknowledged the board was given some constitutional status to remove it from political interference but not to make it a separate branch of government.

Family wins lawsuit over poisonous toys PHOENIX — An Arizona family won a $435,000 judgment in federal court after a child swallowed a decorative bead coated with a chemical that metabolized into a date-rape drug when ingested, marking the first verdict of its kind in the nation over the toy. The jury decision Thursday in favor of Mark and Beth Monje came in one of several lawsuits filed against Aqua Dots, a toy craft kit in which children can create designs by spraying beads with water. The product was the subject of a recall in 2007 amid reports that nine children in the U.S. and three in Australia became sick after swallowing the beads. The recall by the Consumer Protection Safety Commission led to the collection of about 4 million kits. Aqua Dots were produced in China by Australia-based Moose Enterprise and imported by Spin Master in 2007. Tests showed the beads were coated with a chemical that, when ingested, metabolizes into gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB), more commonly known as the “date-rape” drug. The compound can induce breathing problems, nausea, vomiting, unconsciousness, coma and death.
Audit: Auto makers not held to account WASHINGTON — An upcoming government audit says the nation’s auto safety regulator failed repeatedly over a decade to discover the General Motors ignition switch defect that’s linked to more than 110 deaths. The New York Times and Detroit News report that an audit by the Transportation Department’s Office of Inspector General says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration repeatedly failed to hold automakers accountable for safety lapses, didn’t carefully collect vehicle safety data and didn’t hold carmakers accountable for problems. The 42-page audit is set to be released next week by the inspector general’s office. Copies of the report were obtained Friday by The New York Times and Detroit News. The newspapers reported that the audit found the safety agency has a weak management, undertrained staff and insufficient processes in place to properly review safety data submitted by automakers and complaints submitted by drivers. Investigators repeatedly missed opportunities to identify the defective ignition switch, the audit said, adding that problems extended beyond the G.M. case.
Workers clean spill on beach by hand GOLETA, Calif. — Along a stretch of beach heavily marred by a crude oil spill, workers in hard hats and white protective suits use wire brushes and putty knives to scrape the black liquid off cobblestones and cliff faces. The painstaking task at Refugio State Beach marks a new front in the cleanup after an underground pipeline leaked last month and
released up to 101,000 gallons of oil, about 21,000 gallons of which flowed into a storm drain, sullied the beach and washed out to sea. Because the region is home to threatened shorebirds and cultural resources, a decision was made early on to clean oil-stained beaches the old-fashioned way by using hand tools instead of heavy equipment or chemicals. The environmental toll from the largest coastal spill in California in 25 years is still being tallied. Progress has been made in corralling the slick in the ocean and removing flecks of oil on sandy beaches. Scrubbing rocks by hand will take time, however. “It’s a very labor-intensive process, but that’s where we’re at now,” Carl Childs of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, one of several agencies involved in the cleanup, said recently. There’s no timetable for when the cleanup will end. The effort so far has cost at least $65 million, which is being paid for by Texas-based Plains All American Pipeline. A heavily corroded section of Plains’ 10-mile pipeline that moves oil from offshore rigs to inland refineries ruptured on May 19, causing two state beaches to close and prompting a fishing ban.
13 states catalog necessary culverts DUXBURY, Vt. — Thirteen Eastern states are working to keep track of the often-unseen culverts that despite their invisibility are critical to wildlife habitat and minimizing flood damage. The culvert-cataloging program being run out of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst will help state and local planners in the six New England states and others keep track of which culverts are designed to modern standards and which must be upgraded or replaced. UMass professor Scott Jackson says many culverts failed during Tropical Storm Irene and Superstorm Sandy. The database on the tens of thousands of culverts across the region will include information on how well fish and other wildlife would be able to pass and if they are big enough to withstand floods.
Town honors miners killed in massacre HERRIN, Ill. — A southern Illinois town that literally buried its violent past is belatedly coming to terms with one of the nation’s bloodiest labor conflicts. Twenty-three people died in June 1922 in a clash between striking union miners and replacement workers. Some victims were
paraded through town and humiliated before hundreds of cheering onlookers in what became known as the Herrin Massacre. Most of the victims were buried in unmarked graves at the Herrin city cemetery. A team of local historians and university scientists has spent the past several years digging up the old graves to help identify the forgotten occupants. The city recently installed a monument identifying those buried by name while describing a dark chapter in local history that had mostly gone unspoken. An unveiling is set for Thursday.
President spending holiday at golf spot SAN FRANCISCO — With his wife and daughters away in Europe, President Barack Obama is spending Father’s Day weekend in one of his favorite golf vacation destinations. Obama plans to be in Palm Springs on Saturday and Sunday, where he typically favors two private courses — the Sunnylands estate and Porcupine Creek, owned by software billionaire Larry Ellison. As California grapples with a drought crisis, the courses in the desert oasis of Palm Springs have been criticized for their water use. White House spokesman Eric Schultz responds that many courses have taken water mitigation steps aimed at conservation.
Police probe report of escapee sighting LINDLEY, N.Y. — New York State Police are investigating a possible sighting of the two convicted killers who escaped from an upstate New York prison two weeks ago. Two men fitting the description of inmates David Sweat and Richard Matt were seen a week ago in Steuben County, New York, over 300 miles southwest of the prison in Dannemora, according to a State Police news release posted late Friday. Two men were seen walking near a rail yard in Erwin on June 13, and then seen the next day in Lindley, New York, heading toward the Pennsylvania border. Investigators conducted interviews in both communities and have surveillance video that was initially deemed inconclusive and is being sent to Albany for analysis. It was not clear why authorities waited a week before divulging the information. Sweat and Matt used power tools to cut their way out of Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora on June 6. Hundreds of police officers have been looking for them.

Ex-trooper indicted for manslaughter HATTIESBURG — A former Mississippi Highway Patrol officer involved in a 2014 fatal crash in Hattiesburg has been indicted for manslaughter. WDAM-TV reports Jonathan Edward Johnson was arrested Friday after a Forrest County Grand Jury handed up the indictment. It was unknown if he has an attorney. According to the indictment, Johnson did unlawfully and feloniously kill and slay 81-year-old Thelma Gill, a human being, without malice, by his culpable negligence while he was engaged in the perpetration of the crime of speeding. According to the Hattiesburg Police Department, Johnson was driving his patrol car when he crashed into Gill’s vehicle at U.S. 49 north of the south gate of Camp Shelby on Oct. 13, 2014.
Coroner: bone found in Steens not human COLUMBUS — The Lowndes County Coroner’s Office says a bone found in Steens did not come from a human. The Commercial Dispatch reports the bone was found May 28 in the yard of a home. A resident thought the bone might be human and alerted the sheriff’s department. It was then transported to the Mississippi Crime Lab in Jackson for examination. While it’s unclear what type of animal the bone came from, Coroner Greg Merchant says it didn’t
belong to a deer, cow or horse.
Five locations added to National Register JACKSON — Five locations in Mississippi have been added to the National Register of Historic Places. The Mississippi Department of Archives and History said the nomination were given to the National Park Service in March which recently approved them for the National Register. The locations are the Confederate Redoubt at Grenada, Winona Historic District, Lameuse Street Historic District (Biloxi), East Howard Historic District (Biloxi) and Upper West Central Historic District (Biloxi). The East Howard Avenue Historic District is a largely residential district includes the 1898 frontgable frame commercial building where Edward Barq Sr., developed the formula for and first bottled the now-famous Barq’s Root Beer in 1898. The Confederate Redoubt is a large fortification built on the outskirts of Grenada by the Confederate Army to defend against an attack by Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant on the important rail lines that crossed there.
Event marks 1964 Neshoba slayings PHILADELPHIA, Miss. — Attorney and civil rights advocate Constance Slaughter-Harvey is scheduled to speak during the 51st annual memorial service for
three civil rights workers killed in Neshoba County in 1964. The program is Sunday at 3 p.m. at Mt. Zion United Methodist Church in the Longdale community. Andrew Goodman, James Chaney and Michael Schwerner were ambushed and later shot by the Ku Klux Klan on June 21, 1964. They were in Neshoba County investigating the burning of Mt. Zion five days earlier. In 2005, Edgar Ray Killen was convicted on three counts of manslaughter for his role in orchestrating the slayings and received three 20-year consecutive sentences.
New trash pickup program launched JACKSON — The Mississippi Department of Corrections is launching a program Aug. 1 that will allow state inmates to pick up trash along state highways. Corrections Commissioner Marshall Fisher says in a news release that MDOC will request information from the Mississippi Department of Transportation where inmates are needed for litter control. Fisher says inmates from three state prisons and 16 community work centers will be available for work. Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall had criticized Fisher’s plan to end local inmate work programs. Hall said MDOT contracts with counties and cities to have inmates pick up roadside trash.

Report: Woes without health law BY ANDREW TAYLOR AND RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Repealing President Barack Obama’s signature health care law would modestly increase the budget deficit, while the number of uninsured Americans would rise by more than 20 million, said a nonpartisan government study released Friday. The report from the Congressional Budget Office comes ahead of a highly anticipated Supreme Court ruling that could have a major impact on the Affordable Care Act, nullifying health insurance subsidies for some 6 million people in more than 30 states. The budget analysts said that would add a host of new uncertainties to their estimates. Republicans now in control of both chambers of Congress say they are not backing away from their promise to repeal “Obamacare.”
But repealing the law’s spending cuts and tax increases would add $137 billion to the federal deficit over the coming decade, CBO said, even though almost $1.7 trillion in coverage costs would disappear. Repeal would reduce deficits in the first few years but increase them steadily as time goes on. Repeal would up the number of uninsured people by about 24 million people, and the share of U.S. adults with health insurance would drop from roughly 90 percent now to about 82 percent, the report said. On the other side of the balance sheet, the report says that completely repealing the law would, on average, boost the economy by 0.7 percent a year after the start of the ‘20s. That’s mostly because more people would enter the workforce or work more hours to make up for the lack of government health care subsidies. But the positive eco-
nomic effects of repeal would fade over time, the budget agency said, offset by the increased budget deficits. Repeal of the excise tax on highcost plans is a major reason why deficits would increase in later years, because more and more plans would be hit by this “Cadillac tax.” The CBO provides lawmakers with nonpartisan budget and economic analysis. Republicans controlling Congress have increasingly asked the office to incorporate a broader range of potential economic consequences of major legislation into its work, and Friday’s report is the first major study released since GOP appointee Keith Hall took over as CBO director. CBO analysts always caution that their studies of legislation can be uncertain, especially over many years. Previously, CBO analyses would not have taken into account such a broad range of economic consequences. The agen-
Smithsonian plans innovation wing BY BRETT ZONGKER Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A wide range of innovations from Eli Whitney’s cotton gin and Thomas Edison’s light bulb to the early Google servers and Apple’s iPhone have been brought together to tell a broad story of American business history for the first time at the Smithsonian Institution. On July 1, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History will open its new innovation wing, with galleries featuring U.S. inventions, money and handson activities and even food demonstrations. A major exhibition about “American Enterprise” will trace the interaction of capitalism and democracy since the mid1700s, including conflicting views from some founding fathers. The centerpiece artifact in the new 45,000-squarefoot space is the studio of home video game inventor Ralph Baer. The newly renovated $63 million innovation wing is the first piece of a six-year overhaul of the museum’s entire west wing. Construction began in late 2012 and is set to continue into 2018 on other floors. An earlier timeline predicted completion this year, but the project’s scope was expanded to rethink exhibit programs. The museum raised $43 million from the
private sector and $20 million from Congress to fund the new innovation wing. Next, work will shift to a new section devoted to democracy and the peopling of America slated to open in 2017, followed by a section on American culture in 2018. The overhaul is part of a reinvention of the Smithsonian’s American history museum, said Museum Director John Gray. A 2002 blue-ribbon commission took a critical look at its less-than-inclusive presentation, questioning why the museum didn’t explore capitalism or other under-represented subjects and the nation’s diversity. “History museums are not passive places but places that make it essential to understand and grow our country,” Gray said during a preview of the new innovation wing. “Here visitors will learn how business has affected the nation’s history as well as their own lives. ... ‘American Enterprise’ shows how the United States has moved from being a small, dependent nation to being one of the world’s most vibrant and trend-setting economies.” It’s rare in the museum’s history to have such a broad range of objects together in one exhibit. In the past, the museum separated exhibits by topic and collection.
“Raising the minimum age as part of our comprehensive tobacco control efforts will help reduce tobacco use among our youth and increase the likelihood that our keiki will grow up tobacco-free.” Gov. David Ige
Hawaii governor signs state smoking age bill Associated Press
HONOLULU — Hawaii’s governor has signed a bill to make his state the first to raise the legal smoking age to 21. The measure aims to prevent adolescents from smoking, buying or possessing both traditional and electronic cigarettes. Gov. David Ige signed it into law Friday. Dozens of local governments have similar bans. “Raising the minimum age as part of our comprehensive tobacco control efforts will help reduce tobacco use among our youth and increase the likelihood that our keiki will grow up tobacco-free,” said Ige, using the Hawaiian word for children. In Hawaii, 86 percent of adult smokers began smoking before age 21, according to the governor’s office. “I think it’s going to have a tremendous impact,” said Jessica Yamauchi, executive director of the Coalition for a Tobacco-Free Hawaii. “By really limiting the

cy said that using its earlier approach would have resulted in a bigger estimated impact on the deficit, an increase of $353 billion over the coming decade. Adding the economic factors cuts the repeal’s effect on the deficit by more than half over 10 years, the report says. The budget scorekeepers also offered a cautionary note to Congress: Obama’s law is by now so enmeshed with the health care system that uprooting it would create its own issues. “Implementing a repeal of the ACA would present major challenges,” the report said. “In the five years since its enactment, nearly every key provision of the law has taken effect and has been incorporated into final rules and other administrative actions. Undoing the ACA would thus be quite complicated.” Unwinding changes to Medicare would be particularly difficult, the CBO said.
access it will really help to curb the prevalence.” But opponents say it’s unfair that a veteran returning from military service who risked his or her life serving the country could be prevented from lighting up. “I can’t stand cigarette smoking. It’s disgusting,” said Democratic Rep. Angus McKelvey, who voted against the bill. “But to tell somebody you can go and fight for your country and get killed but you can’t have a cigarette, that’s the thing. You can enter a contract. You’re an emancipated adult in the eyes of the Constitution but you can’t have a cigarette anymore.” Those caught breaking the rules would be fined $10 for the first offense, and later violations would lead to a $50 fine or mandatory community service. The bill goes into effect on the first day of 2016. Until then, the state Department of Health will reach out to retailers and post signs to educate the public about the law.

Remembering a special father on Father’s Day BY PEGGY SMITH For the Daily Corinthian
If you have a living father, why not do something special for him? Maybe you as a son can walk up to him, put your arms on his shoulder and give him a hug and tell him how much you appreciate him, and how lucky you are to have someone so special. Then, to you daughters, just a simple little kiss on the cheek and say “Fa-
ther, I’m a big girl now, but to you I know I’m still your little girl� and thank him for all the love he has shown you. When you as a son or daughter are sharing a special day with your father, just remember there is one daughter who isn’t as fortunate as you. I’ll remember 1963 for the rest of my life. I’ll carry memories that keep my father alive. I’ll go on missing him and longing for him,
but most of all, I’ll remember him not just being my father, but also my friend. If I could, my words as a daughter to my father today would be thanking him for all the love he has given me so generously and being a father I could never forget. It has been 52 years since I lost my father, but the fun memories I’ll cherish. It’s times like today when everyone is giving a surprise party or utter-
ing the words I can’t give or say, “Happy Father’s Day.� Neither can I sit and watch the smile he would have had on his face when he would have opened his gifts, like a lot of you will be giving your living fathers today. Instead, I have to go to a place where gifts can no longer be opened. I’ll carry my father a simple bouquet of flowers and place them upon his grave. I’ll stand a moment in medi-
tation and say a simple phrase, “Happy Father’s Day, my love is with you forever more.� It would be wonderful if I could stretch my arms today and give him a hug, but I have no regrets for when he walked this earth. I gave him hugs many times. I believe God gave us arms to reach out and show our love. Tomorrow, Father’s Day will have passed, but my father will keep walk-
ing beside me until next Father’s Day when I again will return and place flowers upon his grave and again say, “Happy Father’s Day.�0 (Peggy Smith is the daughter of Murry Drewery, who drowned in 1963 at the age of 51 in Pickwick, Tenn. Peggy and her husband were the owners of Hamburger Harold’s, located on Fillmore Street in Corinth for over 50 years.)
Veterinarians for large animals in short supply in U.S. BY ERROL CASTENS Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal
STARKVILLE — If you are one of the estimated 10,000 cattle producers in Mississippi, you may have faced a challenge in finding a veterinarian to treat a sick or injured animal right away. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, nationally in 2010 - the most recent year for which statistics are available - about 6 percent of veterinarians specialized in equine veterinary medicine, about 8 percent practiced exclusively or predominantly on food animals, and another 7 percent had mixed-animal practices. By contrast, two-thirds of the nation’s veterinarians in 2010 were practicing exclusively on companion animals (dogs, cats and other small animals). The trend toward small-animal practices is believed to have continued, as increasing numbers of vet school graduates opt for more lucrative pet practices to pay off six-figure student loans sooner. It’s an issue here in Mississippi, too.
“There are plenty of vets out there; there’s just a shortage of those offering large animal services,� said Andy Berry, executive vice president of the Mississippi Cattlemen’s Association. “It’s a problem anytime you have less availability. Where it affects you is it may take longer for someone to get to you.� For routine veterinary procedures, a few hours or even days may not be crucial, but securing an animal doctor quickly to deliver a breech calf or to treat a horse with pneumonia could mean the difference between recovery and death for the animals in question. Lee Chrestman, one of Lafayette County’s bigger cattle producers, said, “There’s sure a shortage of veterinarians. His usual practitioner, Dr. Randy McWhirter of Pontotoc, has cut back on his practice, Chrestman said. If an emergency arises when McWhirter isn’t available, “I handle it. That’s all you can do,� Chrestman said. He notes having helped a neighbor with a difficult calf birth just last week. “I get a lot of those
phone calls,� he said. “I’ve pulled a lot of calves, put a lot of prolapses back in.� Dr. David Hidalgo of Amory shares a veterinary practice with his wife, Dr. Pat Hidalgo. He primarily practices on large animals, while she treats mostly pets. “There is a perception that there are too few large-animal veterinarians,� he said, noting that the Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine is conducting a survey of both veterinarians and producers to try to clarify the issues. “They’re asking producers what they’re willing to do, what they would pay, and what services they want,� Hidalgo said. “My thoughts are that good, old American capitalism will be the answer. When there’s a way for people to make money, there’ll be plenty of supply.� He said producers ideally should have a veterinarian help with preventive herd health from vaccinations to pregnancy health checks and bull breeding soundness exams. Those who don’t may be the most vocal
about getting a vet’s help in an emergency. “If he’s used a veterinarian once in the last year, that’s not enough for him to be crying about not having a vet immediately available,� Hidalgo said. “I don’t know that a veterinarian needs to go out and treat all animals, but the veterinarian needs to be involved enough for the producer to know his recommended treatment protocols.� Hidalgo said another complication in making a living as a large-animal veterinarian is that fewer people raise cattle than in previous generations. “Even 20 years ago, the county we live in was full of cattle,� he said. “When the market went down, a lot of the small producers got out and never got back in.� “Large-animal medicine is a great way of life. You’re out in the open; you’re using your physical abilities as well as your mental abilities. There would be plenty of people who would like to do it if enough people were willing to pay for their services.� Dr. Carla Huston, a former private-practice,
large-animal veterinarian who is now an associate professor at Mississippi State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, said there is clearly a shortage in some areas. One contribution to the shortage of large-animal vets is the change in veterinary focus over the past several decades. “Veterinarians were originally there to take care of horses in the army,� Huston said. Later, the health of food animals - typically beef and dairy cattle in Mississippi - became the impetus for most veterinary work, she said, for reasons of both economics and public health. Whether related or not, one reality in veterinary medicine is that the vast majority of new vets are women. At MSU, veterinary classes over the past five years have numbered between 75 and 80 percent female students, said Rich Meiring, assistant dean for admissions at the veterinary college. Huston said the stereotype that large-animal vets are muscular men often isn’t accurate. “We have a lot of stu-
dents who want to practice large-animal veterinary medicine,� she said. Economics, not personal size or strength, is the most common barrier, with MSU CVM graduates leaving school with an average of $140,000 in student debt. “It’s difficult for a veterinarian to make a good business model in food animal practice, especially depending on the population,� Huston said. “We work hard on trying to train our students in business, but the reality of it, financially, is that that person can make more money doing small animal work. Our farms are 20, 30, 40 miles out. You put someone in a truck driving between appointments, and he or she can’t see nearly as many animals as in a clinic. “That young person may love cows and want to go back home and establish a food-animal practice, but if they’ve got $1,200 a month in student loan payments for 20 years and if they can make 125 percent more by going to town, it’s hard to keep them on the farm,� Huston said.
Utah school creates ‘texting lane’ for phone-focused walkers Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — One Utah university is giving students glued to their cellphones a place to call their own: a designated lane for texting while walking. The neon green lanes painted on the stairs to the gym at Utah Valley University were intended as a lighthearted way to brighten up the space and get students’ attention, spokeswoman Melinda Colton said Thursday. And it worked. A picture of the lanes — which
divide the stairs into sections for runners, walkers and texters — created widespread buzz on social media this month after it was posted online. Though the lanes are limited to the school’s recreation center, 22-year-old student Tasia Briggs wouldn’t mind seeing them catch on across campus. “There’s nothing worse than walking behind someone who’s texting, and you can’t get around them and go anywhere,� Briggs said. She added
smartphone messaging — whether through texts, Twitter, Snapchat or Instagram — is a big part of how her generation communicates, and it’s cool to see the college acknowledge it. Utah Valley University is in Orem, 40 miles south of Salt Lake City, and has an enrollment of about 31,000. Student Chelsea Meza, 22, says the lanes touch on a cultural reality in an age of ubiquitous cellphones. “It’s kind of funny. You walk down the hallway
and instead of saying hi, everyone is walking and texting,� she said. Though the lanes weren’t designed to curb a texting problem on campus, about half of students who see the lanes really use them, Meza said. Though Colton says she hasn’t heard of the concept at any other colleges, it’s not the first time anywhere that it’s been tried. The Chinese city of Chongqing last year created a smartphone sidewalk lane that was intended to be ironic while also re-
minding people that staring at phones while on the go can be dangerous. Officials said they got the idea from a similar stretch of pavement in Washington, D.C., created by National Geographic Television as part of a behavior experiment. The smartphone lanes attracted attention there too, but people using their phones generally didn’t notice them. At Utah Valley University, the idea came from a group of students and staff who wanted to spice
up a gray staircase in the new Student Life & Wellness Center, said Sam Hadlock, a student designer on the team. The typographic design installed June 7 was a favorite of student government leaders. The concept is a bit different from the red-brick-and-ivy aesthetic typically associated with university campuses, said Hadlock, a 26-yearold recent graduate. “I think it’s fun, and great to see current design on a university campus,� he said.

children in hands-on food preparation and lessons about food from farm to table. Afternoon field trips illustrate lessons learned in the morning sessions, including trips to the Mayhew Tomato Farm and several MSU facilities including the R.R. Foil Plant Science Research Center, the Animal Production Unit and the Custer Dairy Processing Plant. “This week, we have welcomed 26 thirdthrough sixth-grade students, four junior counselors who attended food camp last year and 12 undergraduate student counselors,� said Sylvia Byrd, food science, nutrition and health promotion professor and camp director. “The assistance we receive from Kroger and other sponsors helps us continue offering the Fun with Food Camp.� The Kroger Co. and MSU faculty agree that the experience of cooking and tasting healthy foods increases consumption, contributing to a healthier lifestyle for these young people. Campers are equally enthusiastic about the camp. Sebastian Harvey, a 9-year-old first-time camper from Starkville, found that learning knife skills is one of his favorite things to do at camp. “I learned how to make hummus and yogurt, and I learned knife skills,� Harvey said. Eight-year-old Chelsea Curtis of Louisville enjoyed learning about different foods. “I learned about foods from Asia and France, plus I got to try some foods I have never eaten before,� Curtis added. “My favorite part of camp is learning how to cook.� For both Harvey and Curtis, the prospect of taking these skills home and cooking for their families is exciting. “Research has shown children who are involved with food preparation increase consumption of fruits, vegetables and whole grains,� said Byrd. “The camp strives to teach children the importance of food safety, healthy diets and lifestyles, while involving them in the farm-to-table process.� Mississippi is home to more than 30 Kroger retail stores, many of which serve as the anchor grocery store of their respective communities. The impact of Kroger’s gift will influence future generations and improve the health of Mississippians for years to come, Byrd added.

Phone call from kids is best Father’s Day gift DEAR ABBY: It’s Father’s Day. Maybe now is the time for people to forgive, forget and remember how wonderful their dad was when they were growing up. I am dating a man whose two grown children live out of state. He and his wife divorced when the Abigail kids were Van Buren young, and he tried hard to keep a Dear Abby good relationship with them. But even with the best intentions, there are sometimes obstacles that get in the way. He loved being a father and tells me stories about singing songs to his kids at bedtime and getting down on the floor to play with them. I can see how much he loves them and how painful it is for him to not have them in his life. He has no idea why they are distant. I suggested he ask them directly what happened. He said he has tried, with no response. I’m not saying he’s a perfect man, but he is kind, generous and loving. He has many more good qualities than bad. He hasn’t heard much from his
children for several years, and I think the best gift he could receive this Father’s Day would be a simple phone call. No card or necktie would mean as much. Life is short and precious. Holding on to negativity or the past is so much more work than letting it go and forgiving, and it’s good for the soul. -- WISE LADY FROM THE MIDWEST DEAR WISE LADY: If your boyfriend was present in his children’s lives in spite of the divorce while they were growing up, it’s possible they may be so involved in their own lives that they have “forgotten” their dad might appreciate hearing from them. Feeling as you do, continue to encourage him to reach out to his kids. DEAR ABBY: I incurred a big mortgage two years ago by choice. As a result of the larger payments, I have had little discretionary income to spend. Both of my parents went into the hospital recently. Fortunately, they were discharged after only a few days. My sister has now decided we should all go on a family vacation, mainly because we don’t know how much longer our parents will be alive. I am all for going on a family vacation, but the one she wants will cost more than $7,000 for my family of four. When I told
her I can’t afford it, she laid a heavy guilt trip on me. She said I made a bad mistake incurring a big debt, and accused me of not caring about my parents. It has gotten so bad that I don’t want to talk to her anymore because she will continue to harp on it. What should I do? -- FRUSTRATED IN BRITISH COLUMBIA DEAR FRUSTRATED: You’re handling this about as well as can be expected. The debt has already been incurred. Because of your current financial obligations, you can’t afford the vacation your sister has in mind. Either Sissy will have to plan something more affordable, or your family will be unable to participate. That’s reality. DEAR READERS: Allow me to wish a Happy Father’s Day to fathers everywhere -- birth fathers, stepfathers, adoptive and foster fathers, grandfathers, and all of those caring men who mentor children and fill the role of absent dads. I applaud you all. -- Love, ABBY 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). Most people will choose the path that rewards the least amount of effort. Not you. You’re interested in deeper, more meaningful rewards. Plus, you’re called to an unusual path, and there’s not much that could draw you from it, either. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The generous spirit gives without remembering and takes without forgetting. Surround yourself with such spirits, and you’ll live a happy life. Know that you represent this to many around you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A pretty situation that hides ulterior motives is uglier than an ugly situation. It is far better to be upfront than to try to put on a good front. “Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.” -Shakespeare CANCER (June 22-July 22). That person in your life who is never wrong might also seem very infrequently right. It is only in retrospect that you see the consistent wisdom. So look
back. This person needs a little more credit these days. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Fire sparks more flames. Someone as passionate as you will ignite the hearts of many others if there is anything in them to burn. Believe in your vision. This one is going to work. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s always that question: Is it me or is it them? The answer is usually: It’s both. Not now. This time, it’s them. Sometimes it’s just them, and right now it’s definitely them. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stop waiting for the financial bonanza, and start acting as though you already have it. Tonight’s events will inspire you to feel and give more, deepening your wells of compassion. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The pettiness of yesterday seems so grade-school now, as you realize that focusing on those with bigger needs than yours is not only good, but it’s healthy and maybe even a little bit fun.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You know you’re in complete control of your actions, and yet you simultaneously have a feeing that you’re not the one doing it. This is the state of flow that the masters know well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There’s something you’re rebelling from, and this rebellion includes a sense of urgency. Whatever is stopping you from doing what you want to do, there’s a way to clear it immediately. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll get the sense that everything is coming together as you aim your diverse resources in one powerful direction. Mentors, honest friends and your closest loved ones will help with this. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You and your inner critic will come to an agreement. It’s like you’re a couple who’s been married for decades; you’ve found a way to work together in spite of your differences.

Spieth hangs on at U.S. Open BY DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer
UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — One day after he collapsed from a bout of vertigo, Jason Day was standing taller than ever Saturday at the U.S. Open. For most everyone else, it was a matter of hanging on. Day shot 31 on the back nine for a 2-under 68 and was in a four-way tie for the lead as the others — Dustin Johnson, Branden Grace and Jordan Spieth — were finishing up their rounds. Day crashed to the ground as he finished his second round Friday and later was diagnosed with vertigo, which had caused him to withdraw
from a tournament last year. Even though he was three shots out of the lead, he wasn’t sure he would be able to play. Still groggy from medication, and coping with symptoms of vertigo on a long, brutal afternoon at Chambers Bay, the Australian fought his way to the top. He used the slopes for a short birdie on the 15th. He made a 15-foot birdie on the 17th. And he brought the fans in that massive grandstand to their feet when he holed a 5-foot birdie putt on the 18th. Day chose not to speak to reporters, wanting to get back to his room to rest. “I didn’t feel that great coming out early,” Day said to
a USGA official. “I felt pretty groggy on the front nine just from the drugs that I had in my system, then kind of flushed that out on the back nine. But then it kind of came back — the vertigo came back a little bit on the 13th tee box, and then felt nauseous all day. I started shaking on 16 tee box and then just tried to get it in, really. Just wanted to get it in.” His caddie and coach, Colin Swatton, said Day considered quitting three times. “I think the goal was just to go through today and see how it goes,” Day said. The conditions were the toughest they have been all week, no surprise for Satur-
day at a U.S. Open. Spieth raced out to a twoshot lead with a pair of long birdie putts early in his round, only to make a pair of three-putt bogeys that had him slapping his knee in disgust. The Masters champion rallied with two key par saves and a birdie on the 15th. Johnson built a two-shot lead, only to give it back with a double bogey on the 13th hole with a poor second shot into the bunker. Grace had three bogeys in a five-hole stretch and rejoined the leaders with a birdie on the 15th. But the big surprise was Day, who moved slowly Please see OPEN | 11A

Virginia headed for rematch with Vandy BY ERIC OLSON AP Sports Writer
OMAHA, Neb. — Kenny Towns drove in three runs, including the winner in the seventh, and Josh Sborz pitched four innings of shutout relief as Virginia defeated Florida 5-4 on Saturday night to set up a College World Series finals rematch against Vanderbilt. Virginia (42-23), which lost 10-5 to Florida on Friday, took two of three CWS games against the Gators (52-18) and now has won eight of its nine NCAA Tournament games. The Cavaliers open the bestof-three finals against a Vanderbilt team that beat them in three games for the championship last year.
It will be the first CWS finals rematch since Oregon State beat North Carolina in 2006-07. Sborz (6-2) ran his shutout innings streak to 23 since May 15, getting Richie Martin to ground out after Harrison Bader reached on a two-out single in the ninth. Danny Lewis (6-2) took the loss. After second baseman Ernie Clement flipped the ball to shortstop Daniel Pinero for the final out, catcher Matt Thaiss ran to the mound and embraced Sborz and first baseman Pavin Smith and Towns, the first baseman, dashed across the diamond to do a jumping back bump. The Cavaliers took the lead for good in a back-and-forth
game after Lewis intentionally walked Thaiss to load the bases with one out in the seventh. Towns, Virginia’s career leader in NCAA Tournament RBIs who hit a game-winning double against Arkansas earlier in the week, sent a sacrifice fly to right to bring home Clement. Sborz, who hasn’t allowed a run since the eighth inning against North Carolina over a month ago, allowed three hits in relief of Brandon Waddell. Thaiss’ homer in the first inning opened the scoring, but Peter Alonso answered with another majestic homer in the second to put the Gators up 2-1. Alonso, who hit a 421foot homer against Miami for what was then the longest in
TD Ameritrade Park history, sent a Waddell pitch 429 feet over the center-field wall after JJ Schwarz walked leading off. After Pavin Smith tripled over center fielder Buddy Reed’s head and scored on a sacrifice fly for Virginia in the fourth, Bader homered leading off the fifth to make it 3-2 Florida. The Cavaliers went back ahead in the bottom half, with Thaiss, the catcher, scoring the go-ahead run from first on Towns’ two-RBI double down the left-field line. Florida tied it at 4 in the sixth on Mike Rivera’s single off Sborz, who entered with none out after Schwarz singled off Waddell.
Bowl champion — perceptions enhanced during a stellar 15-year NFL career, yet sullied in one game in which he may have knowingly used deflated footballs. “He is a guy that I have said for a long time is the best in the business,” said Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethslisberger, who faces the Patriots in the season opener Sept. 10, when Brady’s suspension is set to start. “I have a lot of respect for him on the football field.” Buffalo coach Rex Ryan, a longtime nemesis, says Brady’s legacy hasn’t been tarnished. “I just know the kind of quarterback that he is and what he’s meant to me personally,” Ryan said, smiling and sighing about Brady’s success against him when he
coached the New York Jets. “I’ve got nothing but respect for the guy.” Companies the boyishly handsome 37-year-old has represented in stylish ads — Under Armour sportswear, UGG footwear, Movado watches — haven’t abandoned him. Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank sat with him at ringside at the Floyd MayweatherManny Pacquaio fight May 2 in Las Vegas, where Brady flew by private jet after attending the Kentucky Derby. Less than six weeks later, Plank said at an appearance in Boston, “Tom has our undying support.” On Memorial Day, fans held a “Free Tom Brady” rally in a parking lot outside Gillette Stadium. Backers of other NFL teams
may not be as supportive. “People would like to know: yes or no,” said Marc Ganis, president of sports business consulting firm SportsCorp. “If it’s no, then clear the guy. And if it’s yes, then nail him.” The 243-page Wells report issued May 6 said Brady “was at least generally aware” of plans to prepare balls below the NFL-mandated minimum of 12.5 pounds per square inch. Wells defended that in a conference call a few days later. But in a 16-page report this month, the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank in Washington, said, “The Wells report conclusions are likely incorrect.” Goodell will reach his own conclusions.
Braves’ offense catches fire in win over Mets Brady’s legacy faces next step in appeal to Goodell BY HOWARD ULMAN BY CHARLES ODUM

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady grew from a sixthround draft choice into one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history. Off the field, he’s a celebrity with a supermodel wife and lucrative marketing deals. All that has made the New England Patriots superstar the object of admiration and respect to some, jealousy and enmity to others. On Tuesday, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell hears Brady’s appeal of a four-game suspension for using deflated footballs in the AFC championship game. Goodell’s decision upholding, reducing or eliminating the punishment won’t likely cause major changes in perceptions of a four-time Super
ATLANTA — Andrelton Simmons got four hits for the Atlanta Braves in a 6-4 win Saturday night over the New York Mets 6-4, who lost their fourth in a row and catcher Travis d’Arnaud to an elbow injury. A.J. Pierzynski tripled, doubled and singled. He scored standing up on Pedro Ciriaco’s tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the sixth inning, and his left leg appeared to hit d’Arnaud’s left arm. The Mets said d’Arnaud is day to day with a hyperextended left elbow. D’Arnaud, who homered and hit a two-run single earlier in the game, returned 10 days earlier from the disabled list after missing seven weeks with a broken right hand. Williams Perez (4-0) allowed four runs on five hits in six innings. Jason Grilli pitched around Wilmer Please see BRAVES | 11A

even to stick a tee in the ground. Louis Oosthuizen, meanwhile, set himself up for a shot at U.S. Open history. No one since World War II has ever shot 77 in the first round of the U.S. Open and gone on to win. Oosthuizen was part of that horror show with Tiger Woods (80) and Rickie Fowler (81) in the opening round. He figured he would be watching the weekend at his home in Florida. Instead, he shot 66 to make the cut. And then the South African shot another 66 on Saturday and was at 1-under 209. Cameron Smith of
Australian had a 69 and joined Oosthuizen at 209, along with Shane Lowry of Ireland (70) and J.B. Holmes (71). The number of players under par kept dropping — 25 after the first day, 16 after the second. As the third round headed into the final hour, only nine players remained under par. And the yellow-andbrown color of the grass was the best indication that those numbers were likely to fall even more. Rory McIlroy was losing hope in this major. He shot a 70 and was at 4-over 214. Phil Mickelson, meanwhile, lost another bid at the career Grand Slam with a 77 that put him at 10-over 220.
BRADY CONTINUED FROM 10A
“If you’re not from the area, the Patriots are an amazingly easy team to hate,” said Adam Brasel, an associate professor of marketing at Boston College. “The actual severity of the punishment is not going to change people’s perceptions. They’ve already made up their minds.” The hyper-competitive Brady could challenge Goodell’s ruling in court. “If there was some clear exculpatory evidence, Brady’s reputation gets even more enhanced,” said Ganis, who grew up a Jets fan and is based in Chicago. “He will have taken these terrible accusations and didn’t do what most people do, which is find the easiest, most convenient way out with the least amount of disruption to their lives.” That may not sway critics who feel Brady, MVP in three Super Bowls and two regular seasons, and the Patriots can’t be so successful without cheating. Did he ask team employees to deflate footballs in other games or know they did that? “As a human, you care about what people think. I think also as a public figure you learn not everyone is going to like you,” Brady said at Salem State University the day after the Wells report was issued. “There are a lot of people who don’t like Tom Brady, and I am OK with that.” The constant media/ social media drumbeat keeps the debate about Brady’s culpability alive. “It’s really easy to try to be infuriated about everything,” Brasel said, “but people forgive a lot over time.” Whatever Goodell decides, many players feel Brady’s positive legacy is assured:
■ “The guy’s a winner,” said Baltimore linebacker Terrell Suggs, who once said he didn’t like Brady and Brady didn’t like him. “I don’t think it really tarnishes it.” ■ “I don’t think four games will do anything to tarnish four Super Bowl rings,” said Saints cornerback Brandon Browner, Brady’s teammate last season. ■ “That’s not the talk in the locker room,” Cincinnati tackle and NFLPA President Eric Winston said of the feeling Brady’s legacy is stained. “He’s always going to be one of the great quarterbacks of all time.” Jim Kelly and Troy Aikman criticized Brady. Dan Marino said his opinion of Brady as one of the best quarterbacks ever won’t change. Brady could be enhancing his own image through his increased use of Facebook, showing a regular-guy side to the fabulously wealthy globe-trotting husband of Gisele Bundchen. There have been posts of him as a child holding a basketball with a Celtics headband photoshopped in; his job resume from college; and a video of him jumping off a cliff into water while on vacation. “He’s not trying to win people over,” Ben Rawitz, Brady’s manager, told The Associated Press. “It’s all coming from him. He’s always held things kind of close to the chest, but times are changing. It’s nice for him to put out a little bit of who he is.” Rule changes to assure properly inflated balls are expected. There seems one surefire way for Brady to enhance his reputation. “The best way to cement the legacy,” Ganis said, “is to go out and win this year.”
BRAVES CONTINUED FROM 10A
Flores’ two-out single in the ninth for his 19th save in 21 chances. Jack Leathersich (0-1) lost in relief. Mets rookie Noah Syndergaard struggled again on the road, allowing four runs in four innings. He has a 6.52 ERA in four starts away from Citi Field. The Mets took a 2-0 lead on d’Arnaud’s bases-loaded single. Pierzynski tripled into the right-field corner and scored on Simmons’ single in the second. Jace Peterson walked to lead off the third. He stole, and advanced to third when no one covered second base for d’Arnaud’s throw, which sailed into center field. Peterson scored on a groundout by Cameron Maybin.
A large group of Mets fans, most wearing orange “Mets fans have more fun” T-shirts, took over four sections of the left-field seats. The fans chanted throughout the game, including a “Why so quiet?” inquiry of Braves fans in the fifth inning. Trainer’s Room Mets: RHP Jeurys Familia (left groin tightness) was held out. He felt more discomfort on Saturday, a day after being injured. Braves: 1B Freddie Freeman (sprained left wrist) did not start for the third straight game. Manager Fredi Gonzalez said there was not enough improvement for Freeman to start. Because the Braves are off on Monday, Freeman may be held out again Sunday to give him five days for the wrist to heal.

Scherzer nearly perfect against Pirates BY IAN QUILLEN Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Just one strike from a perfect game, Max Scherzer saw it slip away with a misplaced slider. Or, some thought, a misplaced elbow. Scherzer lost his bid in agonizing fashion, plunking a batter with two outs in the ninth inning before finishing off a no-hitter Saturday in the Washington Nationals’ 6-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. A letdown? Yeah, a little. “I mean there is, just because you’re so close, one strike away from a perfect game,” he said. “But to get a no-hitter in front of these fans, there’s nothing better.” Pinch-hitter Jose Tabata was all that stood between Scherzer and pitching’s ultimate achievement. Tabata fouled off three 2-2 deliveries, then seemed to slightly drop his left elbow and got nicked. Scherzer immediately grimaced as the ball ricocheted to the ground. The crowd at Nationals Park seemed stunned, too, and surely many wondered whether Tabata leaned into the 86 mph pitch with his elbow protector to get hit. “He tried to throw me a slider inside,” Tabata said. “The slider, no breaking. I stayed right there and it got me.” “That’s my job. I got to get on base whatever the situation,” he said.
Nationals catcher Wilson Ramos had a different view. “His elbow was a little bit in the strike zone. That’s what I saw in the videos. But it’s happened,” he said. Scherzer came within one strike of throwing the 22nd perfect game in major league history since 1900. If anything, Scherzer’s teammates seemed to take the near-miss harder than he did. “I got down into a squat and just, I don’t know, I wanted to cry,” right fielder Bryce Harper said. “To be able to see a perfect game, be a part of that, would’ve been awesome.” Said Nationals manager Matt Williams: “He hit him with the baseball. It’s difficult when that happens.” As to whether he thought about discussing the play with plate umpire Mike Muchlinski, Williams said, “I think that’s irrelevant at this point. The last thing I’m going to do is walk onto the field and mess up Maxie’s rhythm. That would be a crying shame. I ain’t doing that.” Scherzer (8-5) retired Josh Harrison on a deep fly to left for the final out and was swallowed up by jubilant Nationals near the mound. “Pretty easy to do,” Scherzer said of keeping his cool. “Probably took two seconds. I realized I
lost the perfect game. You just move on. Finish this thing out.” The 30-year-old righty struck out 10 in his second straight dominant performance, and was cheered by a crowd of 41,104. Scherzer got help from his infield in the late innings. In the eighth, shifted second baseman Danny Espinosa barely threw out Pedro Alvarez from shallow right field to end the inning. “I got to that ball and just knew I had to get rid of it quick,” Espinosa said. “I was able to get him.” Leading off the ninth, third baseman Anthony Rendon ran hard to catch a foul pop by Gregory Polanco, and wound up bent over the dugout railing. In his previous start, Scherzer took a perfect game into the seventh at Milwaukee and finished with a one-hitter and 16 strikeouts. The lone hit was a leadoff single by Carlos Gomez just beyond reach of Rendon, who was playing second base. Scherzer turned in perhaps the most magnificent consecutive starts in the majors since Johnny Vander Meer pitched back-to-back no-hitters for Cincinnati in 1938. Scherzer threw his third career shutout. He had one in 219 lifetime starts before these two in a row. “My last few starts, this is some of the best baseball I’ve thrown,” he said.
Signed to a $210 million, seven-year contract in the offseason after leaving Detroit, the 2013 AL Cy Young winner pitched the second no-hitter in Nationals’ history. Jordan Zimmermann threw one against the Marlins last year to end the regular season. “He’s just an unbelievable pitcher, unbelievable clubhouse guy, and he’s worth every penny he gets,” Harper said. It was the fourth nohitter in the city’s baseball history — Walter Johnson and Bob Burke threw them for the old Washington Senators. This was the second no-hitter of the season. San Francisco rookie Chris Heston did it June 9 against the Mets. Scherzer’s gem marked the second major feat in the big leagues in two days. On Friday night, Alex Rodriguez got his 3,000th career hit for the Yankees. Scherzer threw 106 pitches, 82 for strikes. He was throwing fastballs in the upper 90s and used a wicked slider in lowering his ERA to 1.76. The Pirates twice hit balls to the warning track in his first time through the order. Harper hit his 23rd homer and drove in two runs. He had missed two games after straining his hamstring. Francisco Liriano (4-6) took the loss.

Our lives changed forever on Father’s Day “Son, it was 12 years ago today on Father’s Day, June 15, 2003 that the Lord Called you home. How can this be happening? Other people die, not mine, not now.” – Franklin Frye In memory of Timothy Alan Frye February 10, 1968 -June 15, 2003 How is this possible? Why is this happening? People die all the time, Lord I am selfish, not my son. Every day we hear about death or we read about it in the newspapers. I knew people who had died, people I worked with, family members, but death had never been this close. Until it takes one of our own, we look at death as something that happens to others, older people die in nursing homes and hospitals. Young men and women die in the military overseas. When death comes home, it is unbelievable. This cannot be happening. Our insides ache be-
Timothy Alan Frye cause we know it is true. When death takes a son or daughter, we are unprepared and in complete denial as the weeks and months come and go. We miss our loved ones. Life is different. As a father, my emotions got the best of me. I became angry. I was angry at the doctors and myself. The reality we had to face was our son, whom we loved, wasn’t coming back. Loved ones wrestle with emotions, asking “Why
did our loved one have to die?” There’s not a day or night since your death that I have not asked myself why. I reflect back at your childhood days and they were good. You were never any trouble. When you graduated from Corinth High School in 1986, you enlisted in the Navy, serving on the USS Haddock 621 for 6 years. Then, you entered college at Mississippi Sate University where you received a degree in Political Science in 1991. While you were attending college, you went on Spring Break to California to see an old friend from the Navy sub. That’s where you met Christie Martin, who later became your wife. You were working at Marvin’s when you had an accident, injuring your back. This eliminated your chances of getting into the F.B.I. (you couldn’t pass the last physical.) You went to many pain clinics and received many in injec-
tions, but nothing seemed to help. God smiled on you and Christie and you had a baby girl, Taylor Alyssa. The pain in your back and legs never quit hurting. More doctors, more pain treatments, and more drugs, but still nothing seemed to help. God smiled on you and Christie again and you had a son, named Nicholas Shane. You and your family moved in with your mother because you were unable to work. You had surgery on your back in July of 2002. This too failed. The bone fusion did not fuse together. More pain and more disappointments. Six months later, you had another surgery, this one failed too. How much more can a person take? In June 2008, your mother and I went to West Virginia to visit with family because you were going to have yet another surgery on July 7, 2003. It was was while we were
visiting in West Virginia that you died on June 15, Father’s Day 2003. I was heartbroken, hurt and angry. Why did you have to die? The reality I had to face was that my son was not coming back. I would tell myself that if only I had been home, this would not have happened. But the reality is when death takes a loved one, there is nothing we can do. Death is no respecter of persons. Death is the result of sin that began with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” (Romans 5:12). There my faith took over and I realized God allows things to happen. Could it be that you could be paralyzed? I don’t know. Then, my faith reminds me that God’s ways are not our ways for He is perfect. God makes no mistakes. The window of life was
closed for you on Father’s Day, June 15, 2003, but the windows of Heaven were opened for you as the angels took you home to your heavenly Father. We thank God you are not hurting anymore and you don’t have to put up with the cares of this world. Gone yet not forgotten. Although we are apart, your spirit lives with us, forever in our hearts. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye, you were gone before we knew it and only God knows why. “And God shall wipe away all the tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” (Revelation 21:4) Franklin Frye We remember ..... The Fryes: Dad, Mom, Christie Taylor, Nicholas, Madinna, Kathy and Marsha
Beach Boys’ Wilson finds ‘Love and Mercy’ in new biopic I was slightly too young to catch the era of California rock fashioned by the Beach Boys at the height of their success. I can recall listening on occasion to their music as a carefree tween. As I matured, I mentally catalogued the brunt of their discography into the category of saccharin pop music. Most of what became popular — and is still most closely associated with the band — was a set of trademark surf and party hits. As one of the original “boy bands,” the Beach Boys produced songs that certainly fit that niche. Meanwhile, their cofounder and leader, Brian Wilson, transcended that limited label, as he was truly an artistic genius, a fact of which I was not aware until I recently saw the biopic titled “Love and Mercy” detailing both his career and personal life. The group, consisting of brothers Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson, along
with cousin Mike Love and friend Al Jardine, formed in 1961. Stacy K n o w n Jones for their distinct The harmoDowtowner nies, the group’s melodies were tinged with influences of jazz vocalists, doo-wop, and rock and roll. Ultimately, Brian Wilson began experimenting with other genres for the band, including psychedelic and baroque music. The year 1964 may well have signaled a turning point for the band’s direction. While en route to Houston in December of that year for another leg of the tour, Wilson suffered a panic attack, collapsing in the aisle of the plane. He returned to California to recover, informing bandmates that he could no longer tour with them
and would instead stay home to compose music. He told them, “Listen, I’m going to have to quit the touring group. But it’s going to be well worth it, because I’m going to write you some good songs.” Beginning in 1965, the band continued touring, while Wilson wrote in his Bel Air mansion, replete with a piano in the midst of a sandbox. He gathered a cadre of L.A.’s best studio musicians to back up the band’s in-house recordings, and he began work on “Pet Sounds,” a very different album from anything the band had previously released. He was only 23 at the time. The new album was much more complex than the music emanating from the group in their earlier years. Music critic Jim Fusili wrote a book about the album itself, and for the musically inclined, he explains, referencing one of the songs, “[“You Still Believe in Me”] begins in B major, a key rarely used

in pop, and remains in B major. The G# major chord below the first, and only, time the word ‘love’ is invoked in the song is particularly striking; on the second pass, the G# major chord hits below the word ‘fail.’ In a rare example of the bassist emphasizing the root in a Brian Wilson arrangement, Carol Kaye hits the G# in both instances. It’s as if Brian wanted there to be no confusion for the listener: in his mind, at least in this song, love equals failure.” However, Capitol Records had little faith in the success of the album, choosing also to release “The Best of the Beach Boys,” a collection of earlier surf/party hits close to the same time “Pet Sounds” was released. “Pet Sounds” made it to number 10 on the Billboard charts, while the hits album made it to number 8. In the UK, Pet Sounds topped the charts. There,
the Beach Boys’ fill-in for Brian Wilson, Bruce Johnston, arranged a meeting with John Lennon and Paul McCartney so they could hear the album. Shortly afterward, the Beatles began work on the album “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” Later, Beatles producer George Martin said, “Without Pet Sounds, Sgt. Pepper never would have happened....Pepper was an attempt to equal Pet Sounds.” In the film, both actors Paul Dano and John Cusack do an engaging job of conveying Wilson during his early and later years, respectively. The mercurial Wilson’s private life was full of torment following the band’s widespread success in the 1960s. By the 1980s, Wilson was living under the thumb of manipulative, exploitative psychologist Eugene Landy, who controlled every aspect of his life, kept him overly medicated, misdiagnosed him

as paranoid schizophrenic, and was questionably listed as beneficiary to his estate. Portrayed by actor Paul Giamatti in the movie, Landy was banned in the early 1990s from contact with Wilson after being exposed for his practices, and he suffered removal of his counseling license. The movie does a compelling job of convincing the audience that the Beach Boys ultimately transformed themselves into more than a mere surf band. At the helm of it all was Brian Wilson, an auteur who shouldered a great burden of what became seminal artistry but who suffered terrible personal burdens in the process.

“The Dad Report: Fathers, Sons, and Baseball Families” by Kevin Cook c.2015, Norton $26.95 / $32.00 Canada 272 pages Every night, just after supper and all summer long, your father wanted to play catch. Back then, it rather surprised you that he loved throwing a ball around, listening to it thwock into a glove, talking about everything and nothing. It’s not like he didn’t have other things to do; you surely did, but you indulged the old man anyhow. Fathers and sons, says Kevin Cook, sometimes have difficulty connecting. But in his new book “The Dad Report,” he says there’s always baseball… In 1939, when Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb were the first inductees into the Baseball Hall of Fame, their speeches were brief, just a few minutes long. “Over time,” says Cook, “the speeches got longer… [and] many inductees have shared the honor with their dads.” Cook probably would
Although these and many similar stories of strife and troubles are told here, “The Dad Report” is really a surprising feelgood book. have done the same. His father, Art Cook, was a minor league pitcher in the 1940s and ’50s, something Cook never fully realized until he was grown. By then, says Cook, “We didn’t talk much…” but “we could always talk baseball.” Other fathers have discovered that common ground, too – es-
pecially within MLB families, where baseball isn’t just a thing. It’s the only thing. Take Ron Davis, 1981 All-Star reliever for the Yankees, now coach for “an elite travel team of middle schoolers.” Just as he was for himself and his son, Ike, Davis is a “taskmaster” when it comes to his players because he understands how sacrifice leads to achievement: Davis and his wife packed up and moved to Arizona years ago, to support their son’s family and his major-league career. Marlins’ pitcher Dan Haren Jr. remembers how his father forced him to practice throwing every night after school, and how he hated his father for it. Pete Rose recalls the “let-it-all-hang-out ’70s,” when ballplayers brought their sons to work, admitting that it was “tough on a daughter.” Buddy Bell of the Rockies remembers pitching against his Seattle-playing son, David, and feeling discomfort at either outcome. Cook writes of the Griffeys and their history-making “back-toback father-son home runs” despite having a rocky relationship years
before; and he writes of Julia Ruth Stevens, a legacy given away, and how she misses her “daddy.” Although these and many similar stories of strife and troubles are told here, “The Dad Report” is really a surprising feel-good book. In sharing the story of his own father and their relationship, author Kevin Cook tells a tale that will indubitably be familiar to men everywhere: fathers and sons butt heads, yes, but that doesn’t diminish the love and, ultimately, the respect they have for one another. Through recollections from ballplayers, their families, and teammates, we see how America ’s pastime could sometimes be the glue that holds dads and their boys together, and that is as perfect as a summer day in the stands. For a baseball fan or anyone who’s ever had a game-loving father, this book just can’t be beat. If that describes you or it sounds like your Pops, then “The Dad Report” is a book to catch.

Hodum chosen for medical leaders conference Hailey Hodum, a 11th grader at Kossuth High School, has been nominated to attend the Congress of Future Medical Leaders in Boston. The Congress, held Wednesday, June 24 through Friday, June 26, is an honors-only program for high school students who want to become physicians or go into medical research fields. The purpose of this event is to honor, inspire, motivate and direct the top students in the country who aspire to be physicians or medical scientists, to stay true to their dream and, after the event, to provide a
Hodum path, plan and resources to help them reach their goal. Hodum was nominated by Dr. Connie Mariano, the Medical Director of
the National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists to represent Kossuth based on her academic achievement, leadership potential and determination to serve humanity in the field of medicine. During the three-day Congress, Hodum will join students from across the country and hear Nobel Laureates and National Medal of Science Winners talk about leading medical research; be given advice from Ivy League and top medical school deans on what is to expect in medical school;witness stories told by patients who are living medical
Seventh-grade math winners Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Mathematics Department hosted the district seventh and eighth grade mathematics competition on Tuesday, March 3. Sponsored by the Mississippi Council of Teachers of Mathematics, each middle and junior high school in Northeast’s five-county district – Alcorn, Prentiss, Tippah, Tishomingo and Union – are invited to send their top two seventh grade mathematics students and their top pair of eighth grade mathematics students to the competition. Twenty junior high and middle schools from Northeast’s five-county district chose to participate in this year’s competition. During the one-day event, all participants are given a written test with winners selected via student scores on the test. First and second place winners from each grade qualified for the state competition to be held on the Rankin campus of Hinds Community College later this spring. Placing in the top 11 in the seventh grade category were (front row, l-r) Marlie McClung, Belmont; Savannah Martin, Hills Chapel; Sydney Davis, Jumpertown; Saili Weeden, Corinth; Grace Ann Davis, Corinth; (back row, l-r) Logann Cossey, New Albany; Walker Moreland, Marietta; Will Walden, Wheeler; Chris Felks, Wheeler; Noah Watts, East Union and Julian Martin, Booneville.
miracles; be inspired by fellow teen medical science prodigies; and learn about cutting-edge advances and the future in medicine and medical technology. “This is a crucial time in America when we need more doctors and medical scientists who are even better prepared for a future that is changing exponentially,” said Richard Rossi, Executive Director, National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists. “Focused, bright and determined students like Hailey Hodum are our future and she deserves all the mentoring and guidance we can
give her.” The Academy offers free services and programs to students who want to be physicians or go into medical science. Some of the services and programs the Academy offers are online social networks through which future doctors and medical scientists can communicate; opportunities for students to be guided and mentored by physicians and medical students; and communications for parents and students on college acceptance and finances, skills acquisition, internships, career guidance and much more. The National Academy
of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists was founded on the belief that we must identify prospective medical talent at the earliest possible age and help these students acquire the necessary experience and skills to take them to the doorstep of this vital career. Based in Washington, D.C. and with offices in Boston, Mass. the Academy was chartered as a nonpartisan, taxpaying institution to help address this crisis by working to identify, encourage and mentor students who wish to devote their lives to the service of humanity as physicians, medical scientists.

During the one-day event, all participants are given a written test with winners selected via student scores on the test. First and second place winners from each grade qualified for the state competition to be held on the Rankin campus of Hinds Community College later this spring. Placing in the top 10 in the eighth grade category were (front row, l-r) Cody McDaniel, Hills Chapel; Maria Favela, New Albany; Kobe Christian, Booneville; Charlie Meeks, Kossuth; (back row, l-r) Sallie Humphreys, East Union; Austin Yagar, Alcorn Central; Josh Hester, Baldwyn and Matthew Bobo, Kossuth. Not pictured are Kellen Harrison of Ripley and Caitlin White of Chalybeate.

LOS ANGELES — It seems the Electronic Entertainment Expo is no longer a man’s world. During this year’s video game extravaganza, a variety of women — virtual and otherwise — have been featured more prominently than in past years of the annual trade show where game makers highlight their forthcoming creations. In presentations and on the expo floor, a sizeable number of women have appeared on stages, within games and in crowds. Microsoft, for instance, kicked off its E3 presentation with 343 Industries head Bonnie Ross introducing a “Halo 5: Guardians” cooperative gameplay demo that featured men and women playing together as male and female members of Spartan Locke’s squad. The company later hyped “ReCore” and “Rise of the Tomb Raider,” which both feature female heroines. “We’re about everybody playing games, and we want to represent that in the content that we put on screen,” said Phil Spencer, Microsoft’s head of Xbox. “We opened the show with Bonnie. She’s got such authenticity as someone who has been with Xbox a long time, running our biggest franchise and being a spokesperson for the platform, the industry and ‘Halo.’” Ubisoft, which came under fire at last year’s E3 for revealing that female avatars wouldn’t be an option in “Assassin’s Creed: Unity,” reversed
“Creatively, it’s far more inspiring to have a diverse group of viewpoints to incorporate into your storytelling and experiences. The more diverse people that we can get behind and into game development, the more diverse characters we see represented in game development.” Shannon Loftis Microsoft Games Studios course Monday by focusing on female “Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate” co-star Evie. The publisher also brought Angela Bassett on stage to announce she was portraying the firstever female boss in “Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege.” Others introduced allnew female protagonists, including bow-wielding huntress Aloy of “Horizon Zero Dawn” and 10-year-old blind girl Rae of “Beyond Eyes.” Bethesda Softworks announced Sunday that stealth sequel “Dishonored 2” would feature a female co-star and postapocalyptic “Fallout 4” would allow players to create male or female avatars of different races. “We’ve always believed that this is not a boys’ club and should never be a boys’ club,” said Reggie Fils-Aime, CEO of Nintendo of America, who is Haitian-American. “That mentality permeates our games and our corporate environment. We believe
in a full range of diversity. I mean, look at me in terms of representing a diverse point of view for our company.” The boost in visibility for women at E3 was just as noticeable in the real world as it was in the virtual world with such developers as “Star Wars: Battlefront” senior producer Sigurlina Ingvarsdottir and “Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst” senior producer Sara Jansson on stage at Electronic Arts’ briefing to present their titles. “It creates a different dynamic,” said Patrick Soderlund, executive vice president at EA Studios. “I’ve always tried to have a good balance of men and women on the teams I lead. I think the balance is the right one. The important part is that if you’re a man or woman, it doesn’t really matter, as long as you’re the right person for the job.” In recent years, the industry has rallied in support of gender diver-
sity, especially over the last year when an online campaign began targeting women and others in gaming for criticizing the lack of diversity and how women are portrayed. For game makes, diversity must start in studios before it can extend into living rooms. “Creatively, it’s far more inspiring to have a diverse group of viewpoints to incorporate into your storytelling and experiences,” said Shannon Loftis, head of publishing at Microsoft Game Studios. “The more diverse people that we can get behind and into game development, the more diverse characters we see represented in game development.” While the change has been remarkably noticeable at this year’s E3, there are still several games that feature provocative imagery of women and a few female models — so-called “booth babes” — who are hired to attract attention and lure attendees into E3 booths within the cavernous Los Angeles Convention Center. “If you look at the number of industry talks at this past D.I.C.E. (Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain) Summit, Game Developers Conference and South by Southwest, it’s a primary topic among developers,” said Michael Gallagher, president of the Entertainment Software Association. “I think the outcome of such discussions is something like ‘FIFA’ now including women’s teams. We’ll see more of it.”
Grounds worker trashes modern art piece Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — It was not the kind of public engagement that organizers of a contemporary art show had in mind: A wood and tile bench displayed in the shoreline town of Madison was removed, torn apart and put in a dumpster by a maintenance worker. The piece, by New York City artist Jim Osman, was installed as part of the town’s annual Sculpture Mile event shortly before it went missing this week. The worker told organizers he used a hammer to take it down, believing
it was not allowed in the plaza. “He didn’t think it was art,” said William Bendig, founder and president of the Hollycroft Foundation, which sponsors the exhibition. “All he had to do was call us and we would have moved it.” Bendig said a manager from the worker’s property management company told him that the employee believed the structure had been left behind by skateboarders. Bendig said the manager on Thursday offered financial compensation for the piece, valued at about
$10,000, but the outraged Bendig has pressed for the worker to help put it back together. The Sculpture Mile opened Monday for its 15th season with 22 works of art in Madison, a town of 18,000 people 100 miles from New York City. The event displays works by well-known American artists in styles from abstract to traditional. Osman spent about a month creating his piece, a contoured bench topped with green artificial turf inspired by the designs of French architect Le Corbusier.
