Regional Park seeks big budget hike BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
With Crossroads Regional Park’s expansion nearing completion, city and county leaders are wrestling with how to
meet the budgetary demands of a complex that is roughly doubling in size. Park Director Ray Holloway is asking the Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen and the
Alcorn County Board of Supervisors for significant funding increases in the new fiscal year beginning Oct. 1. The two boards are currently formulating budgets for the coming year.
“The new complex is going to offer so much opportunities,” Holloway told supervisors in a Thursday budget work session. “It has so much great potential. You have no idea.”
“There are a couple of thousand dollars in each account, but there are also some unpaid invoices still out.”
He expects sports participation to experience strong growth and for the park to pick up some tournament play in Please see PARK | 6A

A focal point in Rienzi is the new Veterans Memorial Garden. Located next door to Rienzi Town Hall, the project was spearheaded by Rienzi Mayor
Walter Williams. The idea came to him after his brother-in-law, Louis E. Harris, was one of those working on the Purple Heart monument on the Alcorn County court square along with the fact Rienzi was

center and will finish at the civic center. “We are encouraging all former Ramer students to enter,” said race organizer Leigh Ann Michael. “If they can’t come for the run, a donation to the school, alumni association and Ramer Ruritan Club would be great.” Proceeds from the festival will be used to help all three. “It’s a win for all three,” added Michael. “The festival is a community effort to bring everyone together.” Ramer Days T-shirts are currently being sold for the fall event. Cost is $12 for sizes up XL. Larger sizes are being sold for $15 at Rockabilly Cafe

He also held the principal position at Iuka High School, taught at Corinth Junior High School and worked at the district office in the Tishomingo County School District. “One of my favorite memories as an educator was being a part of the consolidation of two school systems,” said Magill. The Blue Springs native has been married to Martha Boothe for more than 48 years. They have two daughters, Sonya McRight and Monica Barnes, and four granddaughters.

LUNCH CONTINUED FROM 1A
In preparation for the dinner, the administrator and Admissions Coordinator Brad Calton spent much of Thursday night smoking meats and preparing other foods. “They were here at 10 or 11 p.m. last night and were still going strong this morning,” said Business Office Manager Angie Browder who is touched by the show of support she’s seen for officers. “With everything that’s been going on in our nation recently, we really wanted to do something to recognize them and show how much we appreciate all they do.” Donning blue T-shirts with the words,”MSCC All Lives Matter”, MS Care employees began decorating two weeks in advance of the event. Complete with balloons, blue organza ribbons, elaborate blue wreaths and patriotic centerpieces, the venue was decked out in a colorful display of gratitude. Residents were also encouraged to wear blue. “It has been really nice,” said one employee
as she pushed the button to allow visitors into the building. “I am so glad we chose to do this for them.” Echoing her sentiments, the administrator also expressed his excitement for the opportunity to give back to those who daily put their lives on the line to ensure the safety of others. “We wanted as a facility and employees to show our appreciation to those who often go unappreciated,” he said. “We want our officers in blue to know we are thankful for and are supportive of them.” In a much needed and well deserved break, officers refueled with pulled pork, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken, ribs and all the trimmings as they enjoyed a time of fellowship with MS Care employees. White canopy tents were set up as shade outdoors for those wishing to brave the humidity. “We really appreciate what they’ve done and it is apparent to us just how much hard work, thought and planning was put into everything,” said Corinth Police Chief Ralph Dance. “I can’t even begin to ex-
press how grateful we are for their support.” After 27 years of service, the chief admits that being a police officer is a lot tougher than it used to be, but he wouldn’t trade it for the world. “As an officer, I am glad I get to do what we do for the community,” he said. “It is my honor and privilege to be able to serve the people of Corinth and Alcorn County as chief of police. We have some of the greatest people in the world here in northeast Mississippi and I can’t say enough about the outpouring of generosity we’ve received from our citizens and local businesses.” Preparing to fill his plate, Dance further expressed his gratitude for the generous meal. “We are very thankful MS Care went through the trouble to prepare everything and invite us to share a meal with them. As you can tell, our officers don’t get nearly enough to eat,” he said with a laugh. A time of fellowship in the midst of national unrest, officers were well fed and doted upon during the luncheon.

The board approved the district’s $5.7 million budget for the 2017 fiscal year set to begin on Sept. 1. be transferred to Biggersville Elementary School. In other news: • The board approved the district’s $5.7 million budget for the 2017 fiscal year set to begin on Sept. 1. Director of Finance Kimberly Woodard said last month the district anticipates saving more than $815,000 in the coming year thanks in part to the closure of Glendale and Rienzi elementary schools and the elimination of three bus routes and the assistant principal position at Biggersville High School. Woodard also said the district should finish the year $130,183 to the good. A architect has been hired for a large roof remodeling project at two Alcorn County schools. • The Alcorn School District Board of Education recently entered into a contract with Shafer & Associates for the re-
placement of roofs at Alcorn Central and Kossuth schools. Windows will also be replaced as part of the contract on the Kossuth campus. Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell said the company would charge the school district six percent plus any additional charges. “I don’t anticipate any other charges, but there is a clause in place that says any additional fees or charges must be approved by the school district,” he said. The district has factored $225,000 into their budget for the upcoming school for remodeling and repairs at district schools. Mitchell said the project will replace the current flat roofs at Alcorn Central and Kossuth with “more sloped roofs which will prevent standing water.” • The next meeting is set for Sept. 12 at 5 p.m.

Daily Corinthian • 3A
Across the Region Booneville Man charged with crack cocaine sale
Today is Sunday, Aug. 14, the 227th day of 2016. There are 139 days left in the year.
BOONEVILLE — Booneville Police have arrested Telly Maurice Johnson, 39, of Triplett Street, Booneville, for conspiracy to distribute/ sell crack cocaine. Johnson was also charged by BPD Narcotics for the sale of crack cocaine and the sale of a counterfeit substance, said Ramey. Bond was set at $100,000. He is also being held by the Mississippi Department of Corrections. His case will be presented to the next Prentiss County grand jury.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 14, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill issued the Atlantic Charter, a joint declaration that expressed hopes for “a better future for the world.”
On this date: In 1848, the Oregon Territory was created. In 1900, international forces, including U.S. Marines, entered Beijing to put down the Boxer Rebellion, which was aimed at purging China of foreign influence. In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law. In 1936, Rainey Bethea became the last man to be publicly executed in the United States as he was hanged in Owensboro, Kentucky, for raping 70-year-old Lischia Edwards. In 1945, President Harry S. Truman announced that Imperial Japan had surrendered unconditionally, ending World War II. In 1947, Pakistan became independent of British rule. In 1969, British troops went to Northern Ireland to intervene in sectarian violence between Protestants and Roman Catholics. In 1980, workers went on strike at the Lenin Shipyard in Gdansk, Poland, in a job action that resulted in creation of the Solidarity labor movement.
McNairy Co. Car show, poker run planned for Aug. 26 MCNAIRY COUNTY, Tenn. — The second annual Anchor Holds Stop the Child Abuse Car, Truck, & Motorcycle Show and Poker Run will held Saturday, Aug. 26 at the Adamsville City
Park. The event will be held from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Cost is $25 a car or $15 a motorcycle. Trophies will be given. Bring a stuffed animal and receive a $5 discount. For information, call Regina Blanton at 731-439-1624 or Chris’ Custom Cycles at 731645-2102.
McNairy Co. Grant will help fund park improvements MCNAIRY COUNTY, Tenn. — A Local Parks & Recreation Fund grant will allow the Town of Adamsville to make $760,000 in improvements to the Buford Pusser Memorial Park in Adamsville. The grant is awarded through Tennessee’s Department of Environment and Conservation. The matching grant will see the town contributing $380,000 to receive a matching amount from the state. The funds will enable the town to build ADA compliant restrooms, work on the tennis
courts and to build new playground equipment. “These grants are very competitive so I applaud our local officials for their hard work on behalf of their communities,” said Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam. “Our goal at the state level is to make Tennessee the very best place to live, work, and raise a family, and I want to thank local officials for their partnership in making these grants happen and achieving that goal.” Tennessee awarded $17 million to help fund parks and recreation projects in 55 communities across the state.
Oxford Spanish offered for health professionals OXFORD — Health care professionals in the Oxford and north Mississippi area can enhance communication with their Spanish-speaking patients through a specialized workshop created especially for them. Next month, the University of Mississippi’s Communi-
versity program will offer a short series of classes on “Spanish for Health Care Professionals.” Local health care professionals can learn terms and phrases that will be helpful when working with Spanish-speaking patients in various clinical situations. The classes are taught by UM Pre-College Programs Counselor Ari Lugo. “Due to the amount of people in our community who do not speak English at a high proficiency, it is crucial for them to be understood and to understand instructions when it comes to their health care,” Lugo said. To help medical office staff, nurses, pharmacists, dentists and physicians learn to bridge the communications gap, the class will begin with the basics of Spanish pronunciation and then move right into simple words for everyday topics, such as question words, colors and so on. With the basics covered, participants will discover more about how to ask about pain, symptoms, medical histories, insur-
ance, patient feelings and terminology for parts of the body, diets, medical care and treatment. The workshop will meet on the Oxford campus in Lamar Hall, Room 133, with sessions taking place Sept. 13, 15, 20 and 22. Each session runs from 6 to 7:30 p.m. The cost for all four sessions is $85. “When a medical professional tries to understand or communicate with a patient in their first language, I think it helps to lower the anxiety of the patient,” Lugo said. “Patients can be a little more comfortable and hopefully have the assurance that the doctor’s office or hospital personnel really care and that they are trying to communicate to help make healing possible.” Communiversity programs are open to anyone in the community, including retirees, Ole Miss students and family members of all ages. (To register for this course, visit http://www. outreach.olemiss.edu/ communiversity or call 662-915-7158.)

New scam hits Alcorn County An Alcorn County woman got a call this week from someone who identified himself as “Officer Scott” with the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Department. The caller told the woman her oldest grandson had been killed in a traffic accident. The woman had just read the Daily Corinthian front page story where Alcorn County Sheriff Ben Caldwell warned citizens of a bogus person calling local people and telling them they were with his department, but they were not. The woman didn’t believe the horrible news of her grandson, checked on family, and then found out the caller was someone with a sick mind. It wasn’t quite clear what type of scam the man was after, but thanks to the sheriff’s warning, the local woman hung up on the scammer. The “officer” was trying to get the woman to meet him somewhere. Caldwell issued the warning this week to local residents following a barrage of scammer complaints. “We received close to 20 phone calls Monday morning from citizens who were contacted by an individual identifying themselves as being from our office,” the sheriff told the Daily Corinthian. “I have called the number back myself and a male answers the phone saying he is with the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Office. I asked who was speaking and he identified himself as a lieutenant, which was interesting because we don’t have one.” “Upon questioning, he even supplied our address,” he continued. “When I advised him that I was Sheriff Ben Caldwell, he hung up on me.” The chief deputy also tried making a call from a blocked number and was informed he had reached the Oktibbeha County Sheriff’s Office. Officers in Starkville have reported similar cases, so it appears the scam is not limited to Alcorn County. Caldwell is advising everyone to be cautious and not give out their personal information to anyone. “Just hang up and don’t tell them anything. I can assure you that my office will not call and ask for any personal information,” he advised. “The motive for the calls is still unclear since the caller is hard to understand, but one resident was told she had been summoned for and missed jury duty. The caller said he was notifying her that we were coming out to get her.” “Neither our office nor the Circuit Clerk’s Office will call you about jury duty. All correspondence from them will be through the mail,” he added. “We will also not give you a call to tell you we are coming to arrest you. If a warrant has been issued for your arrest, we will pay you a visit rather than calling.” Sometimes resorting to cursing and threatening when he’s found out, the anonymous caller has no detectable foreign accent and appears to be calling from a local number. Registering 662-228-3424 on the caller ID, the scammer is likely not even in the Magnolia State. “Don’t be afraid to deny their requests or to hang up,” he continued. “Chances are the calls are most likely originating from far away and the most they can do is threaten you.” The sheriff’s office is currently trying to identify the individual(s) responsible for the calls and are prepared to prosecute anyone involved. Please heed the sheriff’s advice. Hang up when a scam comes calling.

Trump’s refusal ever to apologize Donald Trump is running a top-notch campaign to be a conservative media celebrity. Unfortunately for him, and especially for the Republican Party, this isn’t the same thing as running a good, or even minimally competent, campaign for president. From the beginning, Trump has been the candidate by and for the Entertainment Right – the talk-radio hosts, cable personalities and authors who recognize in Trump their own combative style and find it irresistible. Trump’s campaign has hewed closely to the rules for 21st-century media provocateurs: Always be inflammatory, and never apologize. Wear the media’s outrage as a badge of honor, and attack your critics twice as hard. Repeat as necessary. Trump didn’t learn these rules as a commentator, but in the world of New York real estate. His dirtball mentor Roy Cohn, the late New York power lawyer, taught him to always stay on the attack and never back down. It was Trump’s discovery that, in the right conditions, the model was transferable to Republican primary politics.
T r u m p opened a window to his mindset in advice he gave radio talk-show Rich host Howie Lowry Carr when Carr was National e m b r o i l e d Review in a minicontroversy: “Whatever you do, don’t apologize. You never hear me apologize, do you? That’s what killed Jimmy the Greek way back. Remember? He was doing OK till he said he was sorry.” This isn’t an accurate representation of Jimmy the Greek’s long-ago fall (CBS fired the football analyst almost immediately after his offensive musings about black athletes). But it is telling that this is how Trump remembers it. If only poor Jimmy hadn’t been weak, he might have survived. Trump’s refusal ever to apologize takes away one way to defuse controversies, and perhaps demonstrate some humanity and humility in the process. So his only options are to double down or try to evade what he said, forcing his defenders to repeat wholly implausible spin. Believers in the Trump
“pivot” are constantly disappointed for a simple reason. Like a good entertainer, Trump always tries to keep his audiences engaged and amused. His campaign is a kind of performance art in which entertainment value is more important than basic political considerations. While journalists and political strategists are appalled by the distractions, Trump probably looks at things differently. Whenever one of his controversies generates a tsunami of media coverage, he may chafe at how “unfairly” he’s being treated, but part of him must be delighted as a child on Christmas morning at all the coverage. After his wife’s introduction to the country was spoiled at the Republican convention by a plagiarism controversy, Trump tweeted, “Good news is Melania’s speech got more publicity than any in the history of politics especially if you believe that all press is good press!” And that has, across four decades in the media capital of the world, always been what Trump believed. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with a deft sense of political theater or boldness. But Trump is pushing the limits of the media-centric candidacy. He isn’t nec-
essarily losing on the issues; he’s losing on demeanor. In the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll, Trump is roughly even with Hillary Clinton on handling the economy and terrorism, yet he trails badly on every presidential attribute. So it’s not just a matter of Trump being more focused. He needs to be more dignified, more careful, more respectful and more knowledgeable – in other words, a presidential candidate, not a media celebrity. He is currently on a path to defeat, although this may bother him less than a typical presidential candidate. In terms of media attention, Trump’s campaign has been, and will continue to be, a runaway success. In his rambling news conference after the GOP convention, Trump bragged about how many Time magazine covers he has had in the past year. There have been reports that Trump is considering starting his own TV network after the election. And why not? By November, even if he loses, he will be more famous than ever.

Red, white and blue blends with gold BY JAMES F. BURNS Columnist
I’ve been to the moon. I’ve been burned. But more often I’m honored. I’m your American flag. With thirteen stars for colonies clamoring for freedom, I was first flown at Fort Stanwix in New York in 1777 – and then carried into battle for the first time at Brandywine in Pennsylvania. By war’s end, I was saluted as the emblem of a sovereign nation, new and free. I’m your American flag. But challenges lay ahead. With fifteen stars, I survived shock and shell at Fort McHenry in Baltimore in 1814. With the aid of rockets’ red glare and bombs bursting in air, I was spied from afar at dawn’s early light by a patriot poet. I was then celebrated in sight and song by a fledgling nation. I’m your American flag. A half century later and with thirty-three stars, I was saddened to see our nation divided. Our brothers’ blood was spilled in battle north and south. But by war’s end, Lincoln’s iconic words at Gettysburg prevailed – a unique nation

conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. But that pledge was yet to be fully fulfilled. I survived mustard gas and ghastly death in European trenches in WW I and, forty-eight stars strong, was hoisted by six soldiers on Mount Suribachi at Iwo Jima in WW II. I’m proud to be your American flag. I was carried into battle over frozen turf in Korea, waved more proudly on flagpoles here at home with civil rights and women’s rights rising, and was saluted by a little boy as the horse-drawn caisson with his father’s casket passed by on the streets of our nation’s capital. It was the best of times and the worst of times, but through it all, I was your American flag. I lost sons and daughters in the rice paddies and hellish jungles of Viet Nam, saw some succumb to Agent Orange, and witnessed renewed conflict about taking me, your American flag, to faraway lands like Iraq and Afghanistan. When people parade on the Fourth of July and other occasions, I generally lead
the parade. As I pass by, children along the parade route often stand at attention and proudly salute me while their parents or a grandmother behind them might have a tear rolling down their cheek in memory of a loved one who served in uniform but didn’t make it back home. Often I’m inconspicuous, standing silently in the corner of a meeting hall or classroom – though far fewer of them nowadays. Indeed, I’ve fallen from favor for some incensed by actions our government takes. But I suffer in silence when abused or defiled for I represent all of our rights, including protesting and speaking our minds. I represent us around the globe at various foreign outposts, including military bases, embassies, and consulates. And those row upon row of white crosses above the cliffs of Normandy and elsewhere where we left our honored dead are often decorated with my colors of red, white and blue. And I never miss being at the Olympics. In Berlin in 1936, I helped make a strong statement of human

rights and civil rights when Jesse Owens took gold and stood proudly on the winner’s stand as I was hoisted tall for all to see. And now I’m in Rio with my red, white and blue blending with gold to honor athletic accomplishment. But most of all I represent the American spirit, the indomitable demand and yearning for freedom, excellence, and opportunity. I am not the flag of a ruling regime or royal family. I am the American flag, representing rights emanating from a higher and transcendent authority honored on our coinage. Look up to me as you salute or stand at attention. Pledge yourself to fulfill lofty goals symbolized by my sky-blue field for fifty stars. With red for valor and zeal and white for hope and purity, look up and salute with pride what the patriot poet hailed as a worthy Star-Spangled Banner. May it forever wave over the land of the free and the home of the brave. (James F. Burns is a retired professor at the University of Florida.)

Students partake in CSI camp For Daily Corinthian
OXFORD — A dead body, blood spatter, guns, bullets and DNA samples — all fake — offered gifted middle and high school students opportunities to test their forensic skills recently at the University of Mississippi. Thirty-eight sevenththrough 12th-graders visited Ole Miss as part of a weeklong camp on forensic science. Sponsored by the American Academy of Forensic Science, and the UM Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and Division of Outreach, the event drew students from Mississippi, Alabama, California, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio and Tennessee. Led by UM forensic chemistry program director Murrell Godfrey and his students, the group spent Monday honing detective
skills while examining the “evidence” throughout select classrooms and labs in Coulter Hall. “The CSI Camp gives hands-on experiences to students who love puzzles, science and watching forensic science television shows,” Godfrey said. “During the week, students learned the importance of the correct chain of custody procedures when handling evidence that they collect at the crime scene. Students must analyze the evidence using presumptive and confirmatory tests.” Graduate student Caroline Spencer of Decatur, Alabama, assisted with instruction. Kelly Nolan, another graduate student from Oxford, coordinated housing and meals through the Division of Outreach. Undergraduate students Zachara
Catchings of Jackson and Ebone McCowan of Acworth, Georgia, served as camp counselors. Hands-on activities include DNA, fingerprint, gunshot residue, bullet and drug analyses using the same high-tech analytical and physical techniques used in crime laboratories. Todd Davis from the Drug Enforcement Agency and Captain Elijah Wilson of the Holly Springs Police Department presented talks on problems with controlling drugs and crime scene investigations, respectively.

I took a legal pad and lead pencil and put it together. I knew how I wanted it to look,” he said. He showed it to Nicholas Ashmore from Ripley and he put blueprints on it and we built it.” The memorial garden features a wrought iron fence around it, shrubbery, lights around the walkway and the water fountain. It is even more beautiful at night, he said. Four benches will also be added, along with red, white and blue lights highlighting the fountain. Also displayed is an American flag, a military flag and the Christian flag. Rienzi’s blue and
white town flag will also be added. The Rienzi flag features a depiction of the horse named “Rienzi” ridden by Gen. Sheridan during the Civil War. (The horse died in 1878 and is in the Smithsonian Institution.) The Rienzi Veterans Memorial Garden project began last summer and was completed Friday, July 29, 2016. A grand opening will be held when weather is cooler.

Faith is about believing what you know is so BY JIMMY REED Columnist
As a boy, I read all about fishing in sporting magazines. My favorite author was Jason Lucas, and my faith in him wasn’t shaken by what Mark Twain once said: “Faith is believing what you know ain’t so.” Nor was it shaken by Jaybird, my boyhood best friend and mentor, who often teased me about my absolute faith in Jason Lucas. “Boy, fishin’ is jes’ lak anythang else,” he said. “Readin’ about it don’t do no good — it takes experience. Quit wasting time readin’ ‘bout fishin’ and wasting money on lures that most likely scare fish away instead o’ attractin’ ‘em.” Determined to prove him wrong, I continued reading Lucas. One story described a lure called the Black Eel. It was eight inches long, with weed-less hooks protruding from its belly and dragon-tail notches on its back. One summer day, Jaybird and I drove to our favorite fishing hole not far from my father’s Mississippi Delta farm. After baiting his hook, he stuck the pole’s butt in the mud, and kicked back to take a smoke. When I showed Jaybird the Black Eel, he burst out laughing and said, “Dat Lucas fella done sho-nuff made a fool o’ you. Only a blind fish would hit dat thang.” Ignoring him, I followed Lucas’ instructions by tying a weight six inches from the eel’s nose, which would cause it to hover above the bottom. Then I cast as far as I could and let the eel to sink to the bottom. Next, as Lucas instructed, I counted: one thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three … turned the reel once, raised the rod tip slightly and repeated, causing
the lure to undulate, a maneuver bass cannot resist. Detecting nibbles would be difficult because bass won’t chomp down on anything without ascertaining it is edible, and won’t bite back. If I detected a slight tap-tap-tap, the next step was to lower the rod, reel in the slack, and jerk as hard as I could. One thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three, reel, repeat. Suddenly — tap, tap, tap! I lowered the rod, reeled in the slack and jerked with all my might. Nothing. Stringing a nice catfish he’d just caught, Jaybird turned away so I wouldn’t see him laughing at me. All at once the line drew tight, sawed through the water, and rose upward. Suddenly, the surface exploded and like a picture on a barbershop calendar, a monster bass began tail walking across the surface. With gaping jaw and bulging eyes, Jaybird shouted “Reel, boy, reel!” I panicked, and instead of reeling I clamped the line between my hands and the rod, ran up the bank with the rod over my shoulder, ran back, and pounced on the flouncing fish. As we rode home in his pickup, the beloved old black man who was so instrumental in my upbringing looked at me with pride and said, “Boy, today you showed what faith really is: Believin’ what you know is so.” (Editor’s Note: Oxford, Mississippi resident, Ole Miss alumnus, Army veteran, and retired Mississippi Delta cotton farmer Jimmy Reed (jimmycecilreedjr@gmail.com) is a newspaper columnist, author, and college teacher.

There are 327 spots available for bricks honoring veterans; and then so many places for memorial bricks in honor of Rienzians, he said. The veterans’ bricks are located in front of the water fountain and the memorial bricks are to the side of the water fountain. “We have enough room to add as many more as needed as orders keep coming in,” he said. Mayor Williams said Rep. Tracy Arnold of Booneville helped the city obtain $46,000 in grant money for the project. “I take my hat off to him. Without Rep. Arnold it

Texas baby found dead in hot SUV Associated Press
HELOTES, Texas — A 6-month-old boy died after being left all day in a hot sport utility vehicle in a San Antonio-area Wal-Mart parking lot, authorities said. His death brings the number of children who have died in hot cars in the U.S. this year to at least 27, including six in Texas, said Janette Fennell, founder and president of KidsAndCars.org, a national child safety nonprofit based in Philadelphia. That’s up from last year’s total of 15. The baby’s father, who works at the store in the suburb of Helotes, told oďŹƒcers that he forgot to drop his son o at day care before going to work
about 6:15 a.m. Friday, said Helotes police Capt. Anthony Burges. The father found his child dead after finishing work and returning to the SUV about 3 p.m. Temperatures in the area hovered around 100 degrees much of the afternoon. The father was taken to a hospital after reporting chest pains, Burges said. No charges have been filed in the case. The name of the infant’s father has not been released by authorities. The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office on Saturday identified the infant as 6-month-old Dillon Martinez from San Antonio. Helotes police had ini-
tially said the infant was 7 months old. According to the National Highway TraďŹƒc Safety Administration and data collected by San Jose State University, the number of children dying of heat stroke in automobiles began to rise following the widespread introduction of passenger-side air bags in the 1990s. An increase in air-bag related fatalities of children in front seats prompted parents to buckle their children in rear seats, but while air bag-related fatalities began to decrease by 2000, the number of children dying of heat stroke rose due to children in back seats being less noticeable to parents

and caregivers, according to researchers at San Jose State University. With the children strapped into the back seat, drivers can tend to forget them, Fennell said. Fennell said the numbers of heatstroke deaths of kids in cars fluctuated in the following decades, averaging 37 such deaths a year since 1998. The worst year was 2010, with 49, according to both a count by Fennell and Jan Null, a research meteorologist at San Jose State University, who also tracks numbers. The temperature inside a parked car on a 90-degree day will reach 119 degrees in 20 minutes and 133 degrees after an hour, Null said.

More than 1,000 rescued in Louisiana floods Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — National Guard soldiers and other oďŹƒcials in boats and helicopters plucked more than 1,000 people from their homes and cars as “unprecedented, historicâ€? flooding swamped Louisiana, the governor said Saturday, warning that the slow-moving storm would dump even more rain and cause further problems. At least two people
were killed when swiftmoving water quickly inundated roads. Searches were underway for missing people. “This is an ongoing event. We’re still in response mode,� Gov. John Bel Edwards said, urging residents to heed warnings to evacuate and not rely on their past experiences because the state has never seen flooding like this before. Beginning Friday, 6 to
10 inches of rain fell on parts of Louisiana and an additional 4 to 6 inches was possible Saturday afternoon, National Weather forecaster Donald Jones said. Mississippi and Alabama were also struggling with heavy rainfall. In Baker, just north of Baton Rouge, residents said they had to be rescued by boats or wade though waist-deep, snake-infested water to

2017. But the current revenue level will not support what is expected of the expanded park, he said. Costs will increase for manpower, utilities, custodial care, materials for ball fields, gas and oil, maintaining equipment, sanitary waste, and upkeep of the grounds, facilities and parking. Holloway is seeking an increase of $146,241.50 in city funding and $62,620.50 in county funding, which would put the two governments contributing an equal amount of $335,845.50. In the current budget, the city is projected to contribute $189,604, and the county is projected to contribute $273,225. The director would like to see the city and county putting in equal funding. However, city oďŹƒcials have expressed concern about city residents being “double taxedâ€? because they’re paying millage for the park on both their city and county property taxes. County supervisors counter that argument by pointing out that the city gets all of the sales tax benefit from use of the park. The county budget has the park at 1.53 mills. The city, which has levied
2 mills for the park for many years, faces a statutory obstacle to sending more funds to the park. “We cannot put any more millage on for that function,� said City Clerk Vickie Roach. She cites the Mississippi Code 21-37-43, which allows municipalities with a park commission to levy “not more than 2 mills annually for the purpose of constructing, supporting and maintaining parks and playgrounds.� There is talk of a possible joint meeting between the city and county to discuss the park funding. While anticipated contingency funds from the expansion of $60,000 to $70,000 will help cover some equipment needs, Holloway is asking the Corinth Area Convention & Visitors Bureau to fund $73,029.99 in equipment purchases including bleachers, soccer goals, windscreens and portable mounds. The city and county boards also received a list of other needed items totaling $187,205.30. Holloway’s proposed FY 2017 budget totals $686,768, which would increase the monthly draw from $21,000 to $27,637. Personnel costs of $340,046 would include shifting three contract maintenance
employees to in-house employment and the hiring of a recreation coordinator. The park already added two employees after the loss of inmate labor. Holloway plans to push field sponsorships as a means of generating revenue and is projecting $25,000 from sponsors in the new budget. He’s also trying to turn around losses on activities. The park had 2,076 youth participants in softball, baseball, tee ball, soccer and flag football in the past year and 1,053 adult participants in flag football and softball, generating revenue of $80,506. But costs totaled $97,294, for a loss of $16,788. When Holloway came to the job, the per-person fee was $35. It is now $45 to $55. “We couldn’t go from $35 to $75 the first year,� he told the supervisors. “We are trying to gradually increase those. The overall objective, yes, is to make our program self-supportive. But please keep in mind, too, there are a lot of people out there in Corinth and Alcorn County that really does not have the funds to participate in our programs. I don’t want to be the one that turns them away, because every child deserves equal opportunity.�

Lawsuit over creepy letters to continue ELIZABETH, N.J.— A New Jersey couple who claim they were scared away from their home after receiving creepy letters from someone named “The Watcherâ€? can move forward with a lawsuit against the home’s former owners, a Superior Court judge ruled. Judge Camille Kenny rejected a motion to dismiss the lawsuit but threw out some of the claims made by Derek and Maria Broaddus, including their contentions that ex-owners John and Andrea Woods intentionally or negligently caused emotional distress when they sold the house in June 2014, NJ.com reported. Derek and Maria Broaddus, who have three children, bought the house in Westfield for nearly $1.4 million, but they refused to move in due to three eerie letters they said they received from a person with a “mentally disturbed fixationâ€? on the home. They have claimed that one of the letters they received read: “Do you need to fill the house with the young blood I requested? Once I know their names I will call to them and draw them too (sic) me.â€? The person signs the letters as “The Watcher.â€? Â
Easter post costs county in lawsuit CLEVELAND, Tenn. — An eastern Tennessee sheriff’s Facebook post celebrating Easter has made a group of atheists $15,000 richer. News organizations

The atheist group and an unidentified resident said Watson violated their First Amendment rights by posting, in reference to Jesus, the message “He is risenâ€? and deleting detractors’ comments. The American Atheists said in a news release that Bradley County will pay $15,000 in damages and $26,000 in legal fees. The group also says the sheriff’s office has agreed to not promote any religious belief. In a statement, Watson denied violating the plaintiffs’ rights. He says the settlement was a business decision made by the county. Â
Judge blocks law defunding clinic COLUMBUS, Ohio — A federal judge blocked an Ohio law aimed at diverting public money from Planned Parenthood, saying in a Friday ruling that the group stood to suffer “irreparable injury.� The state law targets the more than $1.4 million in funding that Planned Parenthood gets through Ohio’s health department. That money, which is mostly from the federal government, supports certain education and prevention programs. The Ohio law would bar such funds from going to entities that perform or promote abortions. The restrictions, which had been slated to take effect in May,

were signed by Republican Gov. John Kasich during his failed presidential bid. The state’s Republican attorney general will appeal the ruling, his spokesman said.

Clammer is injured pulling up old bomb DOVER, Del. — A fishing crew apparently pulled up unexploded ordnance while clamming, leading to a fisherman being hospitalized with second-degree burns and the destruction of more than 700 cases of chowder, officials said. It’s unclear what the ordnance was, but fishing vessels along the Atlantic Coast routinely dredge up munitions, including mustard agent, that were dumped at sea decades ago when environmental laws were far more lax. The injured fisherman was treated at a hospital in Philadelphia for burns and blisters, said U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Seth Johnson. Such injuries are consistent with mustard agent exposure. The crew of the fishing vessel the William Lee found what they believed was an old or discarded ordnance canister on Aug. 2 and threw it back into the ocean 30 miles east of Barnegat Inlet, Johnson said.

The original robbery suspect is described as a male with a large build wearing a black coverall suit. Â
Freshman arrested after bomb threat MCCOMB — Authorities said a McComb High School freshman is being held in a juvenile detention center after a prank bomb threat on Wednesday — the fifth day of the school year — resulted in his arrest. McComb School District safety officer Greg Gilmore told the Enterprise-Journal a 14-yearold boy allegedly called in a bomb threat to 911 from the high school about 9 a.m. Gilmore said officers identified the caller and arrested him by 10:50 a.m. Detective Deska Varnado said the student is charged with false reporting of a bomb or explosive device of mass destruction and
disturbance of a school session. Â
Homicide suspect faces more charges BAY ST. LOUIS — The 27-year-old man accused of fatally shooting two people last month in Bay St. Louis now faces additional charges of attempted murder and aggravated assault in the wounding of the couple’s baby. The Sun Herald reported that the two new charges against Myrick Laneaux are related to his alleged shooting of the infant. Police Chief Mike De Nardo said Thursday Laneaux had previously been charged with two counts of murder. De Nardo said the 6-month-old infant was shot in the shoulder as her mother, 28-year-old Kristina Quintini and father, 29-year-old Norris Demetrius Mueller, were fatally struck. The child is expected to recover. Laneaux is being held at the Hancock County jail in lieu of a $2.85 bond. Â
White mom cleared in hot car fatality JACKSON — A central Mississippi grand jury has chosen not to indict a mother whose toddler daughter died after being left in a hot car in May, a prosecutor said Thursday. District Attorney Michael Guest said grand jurors in Madison County, just outside Jackson, heard testimony this week about the death of 2-year-old Carolyn Bryant and declined to bring charges against her mother, Amy Bryant of Brandon. The decision involving a white mother is in contrast to a similar case involving a black father in another part of the state.

Pharmacy at heart of community BY ANGELA STOREY

RIENZI — Although fire destroyed a Rienzi landmark, it only strengthened the resolve of Smith Drug Company in Rienzi to continue serving its customers and community. Today the new Smith Drug Company building is across the street from its former location on Main Street in downtown Rienzi. “We have to look out every day and see the empty slab that used to be,” said owner and pharmacist Trevor Williams. “It’s okay. We’ve kind of gotten past the hurt of losing the other one … it’s kind of neat to be where we’re at.” When fire destroyed the town’s oldest business on Dec. 3, 2014, it was thought to have started when someone attempted to break in using a torch that caused the fire. No arrest was ever made. “When people ask if anybody was caught … I never did dwell on that,” Williams said. “What others meant for evil God meant for good is how we’ve tried to look at it all along.” In less than a week after the fire, Smith Drug moved to the nearby former bank building in town and continued serving its customers. “We didn’t miss a beat as far as our business,” Williams said. “We’re just so grateful the way people stuck with us. We didn’t lose any customers through it all. “This is just an amazing community. We’ve made a commitment to them and they’ve made a commitment to us.

One of the main motivations for rebuilding was because the community needed Smith Drug Company, he said. After all, it’s been part of the town’s heritage since at least 1913 when it was opened by Howard Stubblefield. It has served generations of customers. Trevor Williams purchased the drugstore from his father, Noble, in 2004. Noble had owned the store for more than 25 years after he became owner in 1979. Noble’s uncle, Truman Smith, previously owned the store and is the namesake of the longtime business. Smith worked as a druggist in Rienzi 46 years. One of the store’s favorite traditions, handdipped ice cream, is still served with eight flavors of Blue Bell ice cream offered — strawberry, chocolate, homemade vanilla, butter pecan, black walnut, cookies and cream, butter crunch and krazy kolors (the kids’ favorite). “We’re selling more ice cream than ever,” Trevor Williams said. A new convenience the new building features is a drive-thru, something the old store never had. And, yes, Smith Drug even serves ice cream through

the drive-thru. On this visit to Smith Drug, it happened to coincide with the opening of school, a reminder of the recent closure of Rienzi Elementary School. “Our little community was devastated when the store burned and we get rebuilt and they take our school from us,” he said. But he and his staff look forward to continuing to welcome children for ice cream snacks after they leave their respective schools for the school day and look forward to seeing the students from nearby Kid Kountry Daycare who enjoy trips there. In addition to Smith Drug Company, Rienzi has Badeaux’s One Stop convenience store and the Family Clinic of Rienzi. When the fire occurred in December 2014, it destroyed not only the Smith Drug building but one other business, a vacant building and an apartment — an entire downtown block. Mementoes salvaged from the old drug store building can be seen as focal points in the new store which continues its Coca Cola theme like the old store. Old brick from the former store were used on the outside and also some were put on an inside wall. A whimsical painting of the drug store done by Channing Baxter highlights the inside brick wall. Two large iron posts from the old store were saved and were placed on the front of the new store. An inside awning with shaker shingles is a reminder of the old store. “We actually found a Coca Cola drink box that is the same model as what we had in the store. It’s refurbished and looks like the same one we had. We were very proud to get that,” he said. “The new building just fits in with the town … everybody says it just looks like it’s always been here.” He is quick to give credit to his wife, Kellie, for the
design and decor of the building. Kellie is a nurse in cardiac rehab at Magnolia Regional Medical Center. A glance around the new store shows another of her gifts is decorating. Vintage photos of the Smith and Williams families are displayed, along with antique medicine bottles. She points out two especially meaningful items in the store built by Scott Nash who lost his building, Nash Wood Furniture, when the fire destroyed the Rienzi block. Nash built the checkout desk and a display shelf featuring Coca Cola crate shelves. Working at Smith Drug in addition to Trevor are his parents, Noble and Sandra Williams, pharmacists Ed Arnold, Dennis DePoyster and Mike Johnson, his motherin-law, Johnnie Howell along with Mildred Perry, Katie Gann and Vilene Johnsey. In addition to meeting customer’s pharmaceutical needs, there are gift items such as Willow Tree figurines, Swan Creek candles, Tab Boren Pottery, picture frames and greeting cards plus an entire wall of $1 items, along with candy, cookbooks and more. Smith Drug even has its own t-shirt line and has sold a ton of them that people really like, he said. Another thing the new store has that the old one didn’t is a safe. “The narcotics are locked up in the safe,” he said, adding “The new security system features cameras all over the place.” While the new building is more spacious, it still feels somewhat reminiscent of the old building in that customers are known by name and a friendly and welcoming atmosphere exists when customers step inside … something the fire didn’t destroy. Smith Drugs is open Monday-Friday, 8:305:30 and 9 to 1 on Saturday. The phone number is 462-5314.

Smartphone fact-checking is a conversational irritant DEAR ABBY: How should I respond to someone who keeps her smartphone on and “factchecks” anything that is mentioned in a group conversation? She’s my brother’s girlfriend, “Marla,” and she’s not a teenager. She’s in her late 40s. I consider it rude. She invariably interjects a comment to confirm or dispute Abigail w h a t e v e r Van Buren has been said by sayDear Abby ing, “Well, according to ...” I admit I don’t care for Marla for various reasons. However, she is perfect for my brother. To put it bluntly, I don’t trust either of them. I try to limit contact with them because I feel so strongly. Am I right, or am I overreacting? — AVOIDING CONTACT DEAR AVOIDING CONTACT: Whether what Marla is doing is rude would depend upon why she feels compelled to factcheck during a conversation. If she does it as a form of oneupmanship, it’s rude. If that’s not the reason, she may do it out of insecurity or a desire to participate in the conversation.
That said, because you don’t trust your brother or his lady friend, then it is only logical that you would avoid them as much as possible. DEAR ABBY: My mother is almost 80, and I am trying to figure out activities she can do at home. Her health is not great because she has had several strokes over the past few years and has limited mobility. Last year, I gave her some simple coloring books and crayons, and she did enjoy that, but she has told me she is kind of tired of coloring. She has adamantly insisted she doesn’t want crosswords or word search books. Do you have any suggestions? — ALL THOUGHT OUT IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ALL THOUGHT OUT: Yes, I do. It is very important for your mother’s mental health that she exercise as many functions of her brain as possible. She should not be encouraged to spend all of her time at home. A senior center can help to give her structure and physical and mental stimulation. In her generation, connection with peers is important because it provides debate and socialization. As to what she should be doing at home besides filling in the pages of coloring books, consider activities she did in the past such as knitting, chess, and
watching sports or soap operas if she enjoys them. DEAR ABBY: With all of the racial tensions going on, and an attack on the local police force, there doesn’t seem to be much escape. My husband thinks that watching the news is my “duty,” and I have been doing it to the point of having anxiety attacks. Is it our duty to surround ourselves with the negative so much that we forget the fun part of life? — NEWS OVERLOAD IN TEXAS DEAR NEWS OVERLOAD: If the news is having a negative effect on your health, you need to ration it or take a short break. Rather than inform, I’m sad to say, the television news has degenerated into the equivalent of a series of brutal spectator sports events. If you would rather not submerge yourself in the blood and tears, you have my permission not to watch. Instead, make sure to schedule activities that bring you pleasure and joy for balance — i.e. ones that involve music, exercise, friends or the outdoors. 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). This is a big decision. Give yourself three days to think about it. Your mind needs the long nights to ponder the deeper, subconscious implications that may never be made known to your conscious mind. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People want what they are forbidden to have, what is difficult to acquire and what seems to remain just beyond reach. Ignore the laws of scarcity at your own peril. What about you could you make scarcer? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The transfer of information is only a very minor aspect of today’s communication, which will be more about conveying social acceptance and/or love to those who need the emotional reassurance. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Sometimes it takes a while to get your head around the issues at hand. It’s not that you’re mentally blocked from the work; it’s just that your mind works in mysterious ways. Be patient. Don’t
push. Do what comes naturally. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re likely to win whatever game you take on now. So before you go to battle, project yourself beyond the victory. How will life have changed for all involved? Will this benefit you in the long run? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your team is solid. Just make sure that they are all on the same page. When everyone is working together, you’ll turn out a result that’s a source of both pride and revenue. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It will take you a while to figure out what’s appropriate, but you won’t stop there. You’ll hone details until you have a result that is not only right for the situation but also unmistakably original. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Everyone wants to get the best deal, but at what cost? If you’re terribly inconvenienced by the effort, of course it’s not worth it. The trouble is, it’s hard to tell now exactly how inconvenienced you’ll actually be. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You pretend you have no idea what you’re doing when you nonchalantly parade the thing the other person wants right in front of his or her face. You’re not being mean, so much as adjusting the power dynamic. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In crime, parties and grueling work it’s always nice to have a partner. Your counterpart will make the task less daunting, the burdens more bearable and the getaway timelier. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sure, you’re an intellectual, but you’re a lover, not a fighter. When in doubt, you go for the hug. You keep your ears in the gossip, but not your mouth. And most relevantly today, you avoid correcting others. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s a day to anchor yourself and let the conversation, (fun, trouble, opportunity, whatnot...) come to you. Once they know where to find you, you’ll be surprised at the range of what they’ll bring to you.

Aggies blank host Bulldogs BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Kossuth put up four touchdowns in two quarters of work and held New Albany off the scoreboard in jamboree action Friday night. The Aggies got 148 yards and two scores on seven carries from Jaley Adams in blanking the host Bulldogs 270. “I thought our offense executed early and often,” said KHS Head Coach Brian Kelly. “Our defense was very active and we got some really good play out of our defensive line.” Kossuth, which opens the season Friday at Independence, got a 75-yard TD reception by Beau Lee and an 11yard scoring run from Hunter Brooks. “Our offensive line played well, but there is always room for improvement,” said Kelly.

MCHS grad headed to FHU Hall BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Meribeth Boehler Carpenter finished her college career with hall of fame numbers. The former Lady Lions basketball standout will soon add the honor to her resume. Carpenter will be inducted into the Freed-Hardeman Athletics Hall of Fame 2016 Class on Friday, Sept. 9. “Meribeth broke school records in scoring and rebounding that most thought would never be broken,” said FHU Lady Lions Head Coach Dale Neal. “By her senior season, she had become the most dominant player in the NAIA.” Boehler, a two-time NAIA All-American selection while at FHU during 2007-11, aver-
aged 23.5 points and 10.2 rebounds per game her senior season with the Lady Lions while shooting an impressive 53.6 percent from the field and 72.4 percent from the stripe. For her career, she appeared in 141 games and averaged 13.3 points per game and accumulated 1,870 points. “Offensively, coaches talk to their players about taking what the defense gives you, but Meribeth was so dominate she would take what she wanted,” said Neal. “She was an amazing player as teams tried with no avail to double and triple team her.” During her time at FreedHardeman, Carpenter found her way into the record books in several offensive categories including Most Points
in a Season (848), Highest Point Average in a Season (23.6) and Most Field Goals in a Season (330). She also earned the NAIA Player of the Year and State Farm NAIA Player of the Year honors during the 2010-11 season while also being named to the TranSouth All-Conference team on three occasions. The McNairy Central High School graduate will be the second Ramer School athlete to be inducted in the FHU Athletics Hall of Fame. Randall Avery was inducted for men’s basketball in 1997. The other members of the 2016 class are Tiffany Harris Forbis, Josh Hester and Brittany Bradford. They join 82 others in the hall of fame. Carpenter will be inducted
during a hall of fame dinner at 6 p.m. in the Brewer Sports Center Auxiliary Gymnasium. Tickets to the dinner and induction are $15 and may be reserved in advance by contacting the FHU athletics office. During her four years at Freed-Hardeman, Boehler obtained her Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in accounting. Following graduation, she worked at Steele Martin Jones accounting firm. Currently, she teaches fifth grade at Ramer Elementary in Ramer, Tenn. She is married to Matt Carpenter of Kossuth and they have two sons, Jackson and John Thomas. She is also the youngest daughter of Mark and Dawn Boehler of Corinth and Lisa and Randy Roten of Ramer.

Farewell day for Phelps at Rio Games The Associated Press
RIO DE JANEIRO — This is goodbye for Michael Phelps. The most decorated athlete in Olympic history has one more race before retirement. His shot at a 28th medal comes Saturday in the final slate of swimming at the Rio de Janeiro Games, where Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, made his first appearance at the Olympic
Stadium. With four gold medals at these games and 22 for his career, Phelps needs some help from his teammates to win another — he leads off with the butterfly leg of the 400 medley relay. There are 22 golds at stake on a sun-splashed Day 8 of the Rio Games in 13 sports, including fencing, track cycling, boxing, shooting,
trampoline and weightlifting. While competitions wrap up in swimming and rowing, they’re just heating up in track and field, which will award five golds: for the women’s 100 meter sprint and the heptathlon, and the men’s 10,000 meters, discus and long jump. Bolt turned the Olympic Stadium into his stage again
for his first race at the Rio Games, cruising to an easy win in his 100-meter heat, backed up by the trademark showmanship to the thrill of the crowd.

Besting the Bear? Saban in hot pursuit of icon The Associated Press
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Bobby Bowden never thought he’d see the day when someone would challenge Bear Bryant as Alabama’s greatest coach. But it’s happened. Nick Saban has bellied up to the Bear with one of the best runs in major college football history, and he’s already passed the rest of his predecessors in the category that turns coaching greats into coaching legends. Saban’s latest Crimson
Tide team seems ready-made to challenge for the sixth national title of his career, which would match Bryant’s longstanding record. The once-nomadic coach enters his 10th season in Tuscaloosa fresh off claiming No. 4 in seven years. As the Bear might say of his successor, he “ain’t nothin’ but a winner.” Like Muhammed Ali in boxing, it had long seemed there could only be one Greatest at ‘Bama. “Never thought it could happen,” said Bowden, a
Birmingham native who was coaching at Howard (now Samford) when Bryant hit his stride at Alabama starting in the late 1950s. “Gosh, it’s like lightning striking twice in the same place, which they say it doesn’t do. For him to come in there and do what he does, and now they’re comparing who’s the greatest. Who would have thought that 20 years ago?” Twenty years ago, Saban was having his second straight six-win season at Michigan State. Alabama
was in the final season of Gene Stallings’ tenure, easily the most successful of the seven head coaches bridging the Bryant and Saban eras. (Mike Price was fired without coaching a game). Saban, who also won a championship at LSU, has gone 98-12 over the past eight seasons. Notre Dame’s Frank Leahy and Southern California’s John McKay join Bryant and Saban as the only coaches with at least four naPlease see SABAN | 11A
New Yankees homer in 1st big league at-bats The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Baby Bombers arrived with a bang. Two of them. Tyler Austin and Aaron Judge became the first teammates to hit home runs in the first at-bats of their major league debuts in the same game, sparking the New York Yankees to an 8-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. And New York’s 24-year-
old newbies did it back-toback in a five-pitch span during the second inning. Called up before the game as part of a youth movement that led to Alex Rodriguez’s release, Austin batted seventh and sliced a 2-2 fastball from Matt Andriese (6-4) to the opposite field. The 331foot drive down the rightfield line landed in the first row over the short porch, about 3 feet fair.
Judge, wearing No. 99, drove a 1-2 changeup 446 feet off the railing above a sports bar in center field and into the netting above Monument Park. Only once before had two players homered in the first at-bat of their debuts in the same game, and they were on opposing teams: Brooklyn’s Earnie Koy and the Phillies’ Heinie Mueller in the first inning at Philadelphia’s Baker
Bowl on April 19, 1938. Both Austin and Judge went 2 for 4, Austin using a bat with a lime-colored grip and Judge swinging black lumber. Austin, wearing No. 26, also swiped a base. Aaron Hicks hit a threerun homer in the fifth for a 6-3 lead, and Starlin Castro and Didi Gregorius — batPlease see YANKEES | 11A

pan 6-1, 6-4 on Saturday. He’ll face either Rafael Nadal of Spain or Juan Martin del Potro of Argenia in Sunday’s final. Phelps was beaten in his last Olympic individual race Friday night by a 21-year-old who grew up idolizing him. Joseph Schooling of Singapore built a big lead in the 100-meter butterfly
and easily held off one of Phelps’ patented rallies. Speaking of comebacks, Phelps insists he won’t be coming out of retirement again to take on Tokyo in 2020. “I’m not going four more years and I’m standing by that,” Phelps said. “I’ve been able to do everything I’ve ever put my mind to in the sport and after 24 years in the sport, I’m happy with how
that he never has been things finished.” Other highlights from a morning person and preparations for his noonDay 8: time race felt unusual. Sluggish Sprinter “I’m not used to running Bolt did not disappoint this early in the morning the crowd, but he was dis- in any championships.” pleased with himself. He Goodbye, Green! was slow out of the blocks They’re going to drain but once his tall majestic frame reached full flow, what’s been dubbed “the there was no stopping swamp” at the Rio Olymhim. “It wasn’t the best pics.

with his parents in Rochester when Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre manager Al Pedrique walked up to his table at Dinosaur Bar-B-Que and told him about the call-up. So after a bacon burger and mac and cheese, first baseman drove through the night with mom and dad, arriving at a Parsippany, New Jersey, hotel around 6 a.m. “It was kind of a shock,” said Judge, who at first thought Pedrique was kidding. Austin had gotten his news earlier Friday. When his flight was canceled, the Yankees sent a car service to take him on the 5-hour drive. In a coincidence that highlighted the genera-
tional change, Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte, Jorge Posada and Bernie Williams were at Yankee Stadium for a 20th anniversary celebration of the 1996 World Series championship team, the start of a dynasty that would win four titles in five years. “I’m excited to see all these guys that I watched on TV in October,” Judge said. Manager Joe Girardi noticed the parallels. “I think it’s good for them to be here today to see that these guys were young, these guys performed at a high level and they had a long run. Let’s go do the same thing,” the manager said. Receiving their first rec-
ognition from the Bleacher Creatures in the gameopening roll call, they joined 23-year-old catcher Gary Sanchez, who entered the game hitting .357 (10 for 28) with three doubles, a home run and four RBIs since he was brought up Aug. 3. Girardi said Judge, a burly 6-foot-7 and 275 pounds, will be the regular right fielder. Austin will share time at first with Mark Teixeira and also DH. General manager Brian Cashman planned to bring up Austin and added Judge once it became clear following Friday night’s game that Brett Gardner would be sidelined for several days after getting hit by a pitch above the right
ankle. “I figured Judge, being his first call-up, he’s not going to sleep anyway,” Cashman said. “Thank God he’s young, because if that was me, I would be a zombie right now.” Austin, who also plays corner outfield and third base, overcame testicular cancer surgery at age 17 and was a 13th-round draft pick in 2010. His career slowed after a wrist injury and he was designated for assignment Sept. 1, giving other teams a chance to claim him off waivers. He remained with the Yankees and after playing in the Arizona Fall League and Venezuelan Winter League, he started this year at Double-A Trenton
turns 65 on Oct. 31 and shows no sign of slowing down. He continued his string of No. 1-ranked recruiting classes in February. About a month earlier, he led the Tide to a shootout victory over Clemson in the national championship game, making the call for a game-changing onside kick early in the fourth quarter. Steve Spurrier, who had three straight 11-2 seasons at South Carolina after turning 65, visited with Saban after speaking at a high school clinic over the summer. He said Saban joked that he was starting to hear of opposing coaches telling recruits he wouldn’t be around much longer. “He’s got a good six to eight years or more, depending on what he wants, really,” said Spurrier, who stepped down during the 2015 season. “If he keeps
winning at a high level, which he certainly can the way they recruit. The question is if he gets to 8-4, I think he said, ‘All hell will break loose around here if I go 8-4.’ It’s really hard to go out on top. It’s hard to say you’ve had enough unless you start losing. That’s what happened to me, is we started losing.” Saban still takes care of himself physically. He eats a salad daily for lunch, plays basketball with his assistants during the offseason and tosses passes with a nice touch during drills with the defensive backs. “He’s stayed the same weight probably since he was 30 or 35,” said Spurrier, fresh from one of his own daily workouts. Plenty of other coaches have had high levels of success after 65. Bowden won two national titles and 12 ACC championships
before stepping down not long after his 80th birthday. Penn State’s Joe Paterno won 169 games and had seven top-10 finishes. Bryant won championships in 1978 and 1979 and was 49-9-1 at 65-plus. Bowden said the biggest challenge in sustaining that kind of enduring success is keeping the players as focused and motivated after they reach the top as they were in getting there. “So your biggest enemy becomes yourself,” Bowden said. “Keeping your players hungry is a very key ingredient, and I really don’t know anybody that does a better job of that than Coach Saban.” Enter “The Process,” Saban’s philosophy of focusing on the task at hand and not getting distracted by past results or future ambitions. Saban says it’s “the human condition” to relax and feel a sense
of entitlement after great success, though he never seems to suffer from it. “We’ve had to deal with this with some of our teams in the past,” Saban said. “They start questioning and judging, ‘Why are we practicing this hard? Why are we doing conditioning this way?’ Well, it’s the same thing we did that helped you be successful last year.” Saban’s footprint on college football and the SEC has spread to the sidelines in a big way. Former assistants Jim McElwain, Will Muschamp and Kirby Smart are all head coaches in the SEC East, Jimbo Fisher won a national title at Florida State and Mark Dantonio led Michigan State to a playoff matchup with his former boss last season. “I think he can go forever,” McElwain, Florida’s
day, the United States will lay claim to its 1,000th overall gold medal in the Summer Olympics. Although counting them has proven an inexact science, the U.S. Olympic Committee says the official count coming into the Rio Games was 977 golds, a global high. James Connolly won the first for the Millenial Medal U.S. in 1896, and of course Sometime very soon, no one has added more to possibly even later Satur- the total than Phelps.
YANKEES CONTINUED FROM 10A
ting cleanup for the first time in his big league career — also went deep. The Yankees (60-56), whose homers all came from players 26 and under, won their fourth straight and matched their season high of four games over .500. Brad Miller homered twice for Tampa Bay, a three-run drive and a solo shot off Masahiro Tanaka (9-4). New York started a pair of players making their big league debuts for the first time since center fielder Jim Lyttle and catcher John Ellis against the California Angels on May 17, 1969. Judge had just ordered a postgame midnight meal
and blossomed after he was promoted to Scranton on June 4. Cashman wouldn’t rule out more veterans leaving by the start of next season, opening more opportunities. “It’s always in the best interest to be open-minded and listen,” he said. “I wouldn’t say anybody is untouchable.”

tional championships in The Associated Press poll era, dating to 1936. Leahy also won his four titles in a seven-year span but he didn’t actually coach in 1944 or 1945 because of World War II. Then there was Bowden, who had a run of 14 consecutive top-5 finishes at Florida State. Who knows if Saban will stick around long enough to match that, but he’s been nearly unbeatable with a title on the line. He’s 11-1 in conference or national championship games, with the only loss coming to eventual national champ Florida in the 2008 SEC title tilt his second year at Alabama. “There were runs something like this, but this may be the best of all of them so far in the history of football,” Bowden said. The Alabama coach
head coach, said of Saban. “That’s just the way he’s wired. And I haven’t seen one thing, when we were around each other that week of the SEC Championship game, I didn’t see one less bounce in his step, anything like that. And, you know what? The guy’s something special.” Smart took over at Georgia this season after serving on Saban’s Alabama staff for all four national championships. He’s pretty well qualified to answer: What drives Saban? “Well, that’s an easy question,” Smart said. “He’s driven to be the best. And I think that’s what makes him different. Because everybody is driven for their different purpose and everybody has their ‘why.’ And for Coach Saban, I think he wants to be the best.” At Alabama, that means topping the Bear.

Jimenez grabs 3rd-round lead at Senior Open The Associated Press
UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio — Another day, another leader at the U.S. Senior Open Championship. Miguel Angel Jimenez battled gusty winds and sheets of rain on the 18th hole to shoot a 1-under 69 Saturday and grab a 1-stroke lead after the third round of the tournament at the Scioto County Club in suburban Columbus. He’s at 3-under 207 after 54 holes. Despite three bogeys on the windy back nine, the 52-year-old Spaniard finished as one of just four players who were below par
for the day. Jimenez started the day three shots off the lead. After two birdies on the front nine, he birdied the 12th before carding bogeys on the 13th and 14th, a birdie on the 15th and another bogey on the 16th. He finished with a pair of pars just as sheets of driving rain rolled in on top of the suffocating heat and humidity that’s worn down the players all week. “The conditions, they are tough today, especially because of the wind,” Jimenez said. “The greens were softer on the first two rounds, but it’s the gusting wind there that (makes it) not easy to
choose the club, the right club. Sometimes it will go a place that you don’t (want) to, you know?” Gene Sauers also battled the wind and had an up-and-down day with four birdies and five bogeys, finishing with a 71 to put him in second place, one stroke off the lead. He shot a 68 on Thursday and 69 Friday. “The heat, the wind, the rain on the last hole — it was a brutal day,” said the 53-year-old Sauers, who has never won a senior tournament in five seasons but has 17 top-10 finishes. Ian Woosnam, Loren Roberts and Billy Mayfair were in a tie for
third at 1-over par. The leader after Friday’s round, Joey Sindelar, shot at 77 Saturday and slipped to 2-over and into a tie for sixth place. “Golf’s hard,” he said. “U.S. Open’s harder. And I thought for the most part, I was pretty happy with the way I played. It wasn’t horrible. Just a couple of uglies, and it played hard out there. Problem is, we’ve got a pretty good guy out there in the lead and a couple more really good ones right behind him.” Thursday’s leader, Vijay Singh, is 6 over and nine shots off the lead after shooting 75 Friday and
Saturday. Jimenez finished in the top 10 in six of the seven senior events he’s played in this year, winning the Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic in April. He finished second at three others. He lost the 3M Championship earlier this month in a playoff with Joe Durant, who made a double eagle on the first playoff hole. As for Sunday, Jimenez said he’ll “just keep playing golf and give myself patience. That’s the main thing. Whatever happens happens. “Of course,” he added, “you have to enjoy yourself.”
Renowned New Orleans sports writer dead at 88 The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Peter Finney, a sports writer whose award-winning career in New Orleans spanned nearly 70 years, died Saturday at the age of 88. His death was confirmed by the Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home, which is handling funeral arrangements. His longtime former employer, NOLA.com/The TimesPicayune, reported that he died at his New Orleans home. Finney began his career with the New Orleans States-Item in 1945 and
joined the Times-Picayune through a newspaper merger in 1980. He was the Times-Picayune’s lead columnist for decades until his retirement in 2013. He covered the first game the New Orleans Saints ever played, in 1967, and their only Super Bowl, in 2010. His career encompassed all of LSU’s national football titles, which occurred in 1958, 2003 and 2007. Finney wrote about 15,000 articles. A selection was republished in a book this year. It included his coverage of LSU Heisman Trophy winner Billy
Cannon’s touchdown return against Mississippi on Halloween 1959 and Saints kicker Tom Dempsey’s game-winning, NFL-record 63-yard field goal in 1970. He profiled some of the most famous athletes of the past century, including boxer Muhammad Ali; golfers Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods; basketball stars Pete Maravich and Shaquille O’Neal; football stars Joe Namath, Brett Favre, Drew Brees, Archie Manning, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning; Olympic track champion

Strawberry Plains: Where nature meets history BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
HOLLY SPRINGS — One of Mississippi’s finest natural and historic treasures is a conservationist’s dream. The Strawberry Plains Audubon Center is home to just under 3,000 acres of hardwood forests, wetlands and native grasslands. The property was entrusted to The National Audubon Society in January of 1983 by two sisters, Ruth Finley and Margaret Finley Shackelford, in memory of their parents, Thomas and Ruth Leach Finley. It was the desire of avid birder Ruth Finley that Strawberry Plains become a “wildlife sanctuary in the truest sense of the word.” “The two decided to bequeath their antebellum home and land to the society because they were bothered by the fact that bigger cities were encroaching on areas they felt should be protected,” said center director Mike Muraco. “Since that time, we’ve made it our mission to abide by their wishes while staying true to the mission of the Audubon Society.” According to one of the center brochures, the land was ceded from the Chickasaw Indians in 1834 and purchased in 1836 by Ebenezer Davis, who constructed the Davis home, which still sits on the property today. Built in 1851, the stately manor was constructed from clay bricks that were fired on the property. The home was raided by Union soldiers repeatedly during the war and ultimately burned. It was restored to its former grandeur in the 1960s by Margaret Finley Shackelford and is frequently visited by guests during the annual Holly Springs Pilgrimage. Huge cedar trees were planted all around the house so that no matter how far they ventured out, the family could always see where the house was. Many of the evergreens still stand as watchful sentinels over the home. With its sprawling grounds and ample space, both inside and out, the majestic Greek Revival Style home is the perfect backdrop for celebrations. “We’ve had several weddings and receptions in the house as well as other events,” said Muraco. “It is occasionally opened up for special overnight guests to stay in as well. In fact, we have a visiting writer who sometimes stays there.” Complete with an indoor/outdoor reception area, delicious catering options, a bride’s room, groom’s lounge, scenic grounds for pictures and antique furniture and decor, the Davis Home is an elegant venue filled with nostalgia. The house is also available for tours. To schedule a tour and for more information call 662-2056723 or visit StrawberryPlains@draperscatering. com. Named Strawberry Plains by Ebenezer Davis after the wild strawberries he found growing on the property, the land is inhabited by an abundance of native wildlife. Songbirds, Rubythroated hummingbirds, Mississippi Kites, Bald Eagles, Wild Turkeys, Barn Owls, Mourning Doves and Osprey are regular sights in the grassy plains and forests. In addition to birds, other animal species include but are not limited to the endangered American Black Bear, River Ot-
ters, the American Mink, White-Tailed Deer, the Southern Flying Squirrel, Eastern Red Bats, the Southern Tailed Shrew, the Three Toed Box Turtle and the Spotted Salamander. With its permanent ponds, vernal and ephemeral pools and sandy-bottom creeks, Strawberry Plains Audubon Center is teaming with amphibians, reptiles, fish and other aquatic life. Interesting tour stops on the property include sharecroppers cabins, slave and sharecropper cemeteries, the Davis family cemetery, gift shop and the Cotton Office. “Our primary mission is environmental and conservation based,” said the director. “We’ve tried to maintain everything as close to their original state as possible.” “We currently have only five permanent employees, so just under 3,000 acres is a lot of ground to cover for a handful of people,” he continued. “I’ve been here a year and haven’t seen everything yet nor have most of my co-workers. Our Grounds and Maintenance Manager Tim Bisenius is probably the only one who has seen it all and he’s been here since Strawberry Plains first became the property of the National Audubon Society in 1998. So, as you can see with such a limited staff, we rely heavily upon our volunteers.” With 15 miles of trails, a small percentage of which are walking paths, the park is an ideal place for hiking, bicycling and horseback riding since many of the trails are 12 to 15 feet wide. Peak seasons at the park are in spring and fall due to temperatures, but sporadic foot traffic occurs year round. “We host a variety of events, classes, summer camps and activities throughout the year, but our biggest two are our Hummingbird Festival in the fall and two-day Native Plant Sale in the spring,” said Muraco who loves meeting new people during events. “We try and have something fun and different going on each Saturday.” Popular among school age children, college students, scout troops, various clubs and other groups, Strawberry Plains is the ideal location for field trips, picnics, educational programs and cultural highlights such as the African libation ceremony. Gardeners and horticulturalists will enjoy seeing a variety of wildflowers, grasses and native plants, including Milkweed with is vital for the survival of the endangered Monarch Butterfly. Whether guests are interested in historical homes and architecture or outdoor recreation such as hiking and bird watching, there is something for everyone at the center. One of the Southeast’s biggest nature festivals, the 17th Annual Hummingbird Migration and Nature Celebration will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sept. 9–11. Highlights will include renowned guest speakers, live animal shows, a kids activity zone, wagon rides, nature-themed arts and crafts vendors, a native plant sale and up-close views of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds being banded and released. The three-day event typically draws 8,000 to 10,000 visitors each year. (For more information visit http://ms.audubon. org, http://strawberryplains.audubon.org or
