Corinth raises, lowers court fines BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
People who get on the wrong side of the law will find some changing fees and fines in Corinth Municipal Court. The Board of Aldermen re-
cently approved a new fine schedule as recommended by the court clerk along with one new and one increased fee that will be assessed on tickets. The municipal court fee, which is assessed on each cita-
tion, will increase to $40 from $25, and a new “tech fee” of $10 will be added to all traffic citations. The new fine schedule has a mix of increases and decreases. “Most of the stuff that I call
‘poor person’s fines,’ which would be no insurance, no tag, no driver’s license, most of those I kept the same or either they went down,” said Court Clerk Zane Elliott. Fines for some offenses such
as stealing and shoplifting increased to be more in line with fines in cities such as Oxford, Tupelo and Starkville, he said, although the fines still run about

Local ‘drop’ victim tells scam story BY MARK BOEHLER editor@dailycorinthian.com

The resurgence of the old street scam “pigeon drop” has prompted one Corinth elderly resident to step forward to share an experience to the public about meeting two strangers with a plan that if carried out would have cost him $6,000. Like most “pigeon drops,” the scam involved two people, an elaborate story of someone coming into some money and the final catch that a third party needs to buy in to the idea. “It was a well-thought out scam,” said the Corinth man, who wished to remain anonymous. “I let it go too far. They hit on me because I was elderly.” The Corinth Police Department said reports of the scam are on the rise in the city. It has happened twice in the past few weeks, including an elderly woman who lost $900 and another victim who lost $750. It’s one of the oldest scams

Northeast Mississippi Community College reported an enrollment decrease for the new school year. The college’s total enrollment is a little more than 3,200, including 793 from Alcorn County and about 2,500 from the immediate fivecounty area. “All of us are seeing some decrease,” said College President Johnny Allen, referring to colleges across the state. One reason is adult students who returned to college during the economic downturn are now decreasing in numbers, he said. Some have found work or left school for other reasons. A new Census Bureau report released last week also cited declining adult enrollment. College enrollment for fall 2012 was down by 467,000 Please see REPORT | 3A

Couple enjoys time with hummingbird BY JOSEPH MILLER jmiller@dailycorinthian.com
Anytime someone spots something rare, it is always a momentous occasion and intriguing to others as well. This was the case for Dexter and his wife Carolyn Stanfield of Burnville when they saw a rare white hummingbird feeding in their yard last week. They wanted to share their unusual experience with others. “We were excited and surprised when we saw the white hummingbird because we knew how rare they were,” Mrs. Stanfield said. “The bird stayed around for about six days and then departed. We got some great pictures of it.” For those who don’t know
the basic facts about hummingbirds, these birds are small, colorful birds with iridescent feathers. Their name comes from the fact that they flap their wings so fast (about 80 times per second) that they make a humming noise. Hummingbirds can fly right, left, up, down, backwards, and even upside down. They are also able to hover by flapping their wings in a figure-8 pattern. They have a specialized long and tapered bill that is used to obtain nectar from the center of long, tubular flowers. The hummingbird’s feet are used for perching only, and are not used for hopping or walking. That’s not enough rarity in itself, however, seeing a white hummingbird is even more of a
slim occasion, according to Patrick Poindexter, County Director at the Mississippi State Extension Center in Corinth. “This is the first report I have heard of a white hummingbird in this part of the county,” Piondexter said. “Even if it is not a true ‘Albino’ hummingbird, the ‘Leucistic’ hummingbirds are still rare as well.” A true albino hummingbird -- one that has white feathers and pink eyes, feet, and bill is an extremely rare site and the Leucistic hummingbirds are also still rare but are seen more often than true albinos. Leucistic are more like “normal” hummingbirds, lecistic forms, as far

And no downtown Corinth event is complete without the sound of an approaching train as a black NorfolkSouthern locomotive roars past on its way to Memphis. It’s called the Green Market and it’s bursting at its seams. “It’s a huge familystyle, social event,” said Crossroads Museum Executive Director Brandy Steen. “It just keeps getting better and better.” The event, which once won a statewide award for tourism, had 56 vendors in the area known as the C.A.R.E garden at The Depot, 16 of which are enjoying the venue for the very first time. In its fifth year, the Green Market is the main fundraiser for the museum through vendor fees. “We have brand new vendors with every market,” added Zack Steen, a committee member and founding member. “It’s amazing. Just out of the blue they show up.” Tommy Ledbetter is another committee member and founding member. “It gets better and more organized every year,” noted Ledbetter. “This brings people to town who would not otherwise come.” Both Ledbetter and Zack Steen agreed there are many downtown businesses who see the benefit of more people coming downtown. “Many businesses see the potential in the draw,” added Zack. Many visitors Saturday were seen checking out Corinth’s newest development -- the SoCo District -- or strolling down Fillmore. Sherry Russell of Louisville, Miss. got up at 2 a.m. Saturday to be at the Corinth event -- one she has not missed this year. “We do pretty well here,” said Russell, who hand crafts her jewelry when not busy with customers. “That’s why we keep coming back.” Many local and regional craft and food producers love the event, including the mother-daughter tandem of Diane Spears and Kerri Smith of Krazy Ladies Crafts and Sewing of Corinth. “We’ve made a lot of friends at this event,” noted Kerri Smith, as she enjoyed lunch with her mother and other family members under a tent displaying handmade aprons and wreaths. “We are selling more and more,” added Diane Spears, who designs the
patterns and daughter makes the finished products. “It just keeps growing.” Zack thinks one reason for the growth has been the result of the popularity and affordability of repurposed items, examples being an old Chevy pickup tailgate for a bench, an arbor made from two old wooden doors and rustic, discarded windows made into coffee tables. Brandy Steen wanted to show off a vendor who was selling an old school desk which had been brightly repainted and the desk portion was converted to a chalk board to keep kids busy. Too late. The desk had already sold. “There are large amounts of people selling reused items,” added Zack. Plans for the Green Market call for the push to seek more local people with fresh produce, live plants and flowers. Vendors with 90 percent produce get to set up free of charge. “We would love to have five to 10 of these at every market,” noted Zack. Both Steens and Ledbetter credited the success of the event to the hard work of the committee. Melissa Carson, Lisa Green and Suzanne Cooper are committee members and founders. Other committee members include chairperson Janice Knighton and Cathy Wood, who are also museum board members. “We’ve been through a lot of change,” added Ledbetter. “And most of it for the good.” Produced seven times a year on the first Saturday of the month except November, the Green Market is already planning for its two huge events to close the year. Heritage Day and Green Market will feature quilters, live demonstrations and the popular Pet Costume Contest on Oct. 5. It’s an 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. market. The RED Green Market will be staged from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Nov. 23, and applications will be available later this month. Brandy noted the October and November markets are usually the biggest of the year. “All of this is pretty amazing,” added Zack. “And a whole lot of fun.” (To sign up for the Green Market newsletter, go to corinthgreenmarket.com.

on the street. If carried out successfully, the fraud leaves a victim with a bag full of nothing and a little shorter on cash. In the man’s case who decided to step forward, it was typical in the story begins in a parking lot of local businesses and near a bank with a meeting with a stranger, a move police say is the first indication of what might unfold in the swindle. A middle-aged black man inquired if the man was acquainted with the area and showed him a piece of paper which read, “African Baptist Church -- Third Floor.” The potential victim wasn’t aware of any three story buildings in Corinth, but the story continued as the scam artist kept rolling around two rolls of money which appeared to be $100 bills on the outside. The next move to take the stranger to a local church is what police say is the most dangerous part of the scam because the elderly person is the most vulnerable in this situation. After stopping at a local fast food restaurant for the man to use the restroom, the detailed story began to develop. “He claimed he had a letter from a law firm in South Africa stating that he was the heir to a $800,000 settlement for the death of his brother during the airline crash into the Potomac River south of Washington D.C. ... he informed me he had $80,000 he could not take back to South Africa and his lawyer advised him to donate it to charity. He was looking for someone to assist him in finding an organization to donate the same.” During the entire conversation, the swindle expert continued to move the rolls of money from pocket to pocket, explained the potential victim. The next part of the story is what police say will usually happen, a third party will enter the picture and become part of the deal offer. The third party — described as a younger, well-dressed black male — was offered a deal
“Never let strangers in your vehicle.” Ralph Dance Detective captain that if he could find an organization to donate $35,000, he could keep $5,000 for his efforts, the man explained. Some “good faith” had to be shown for trust purposes with an asking price of $2,000. Of course, the third party left the deal making session and returned with the $2,000 to satisfy the deal, according to the potential victim. “He then turned to me and offered me $40,000. I could keep $7,000 if I would find a worthy charity to donate the same,” said the man. Bingo. “By this time I realized this was a scam,” he admitted. Police say this is where successful swindlers get the cash from the victim from a local bank, then leave them holding an empty bag -- hence, “pigeon drop.” “Never let strangers in your vehicle,” Detective Capt. Ralph Dance recently told the Daily Corinthian after two successful “pigeon drops” on local victims. This potential victim went a step further after realizing a scam was in the works. He offered to take the stranger to a local bank to deposit the money until a person could be found in which to give the money, but the man said he had a flight to catch later in the day. The bottom line was then reached — the man needed some “trust” to the tune of $6,000. “I informed him I did not have my checkbook,” he said, but the persistent trick artists said a counter check would work fine. The man left to get the money at the bank, but fortunately in this case, he never returned to the scene of the sometimes successful crime. Dance said the best option is to contact the police. “I read where the last pigeon drop got $900,” added the man. “I thought I’d share my story as they were going for $6,000 with me.”

Corinth, Miss.
Kicking the can down the deteriorating road When special interest groups are struggling to avoid a tax hike, one of the tried and true methods is to call for a study that will buy time and essentially kick the issue down the road. Sid Salter Business groups calling for an efficiency study of the MisColumnist sissippi Department of Transportation prior to facing up to the undeniable reality that Mississippi doesn’t have a credible funding source to repair the state’s existing roads and bridges – which are deteriorating significantly – are in essence kicking a difficult discussion of restructuring the state’s road and bridge finance system down a decaying road and off a substandard bridge. What is most interesting in the debate over finding a new and better way to pay for road and bridge repair and construction in Mississippi is the fact that you have a staunch white Republican in Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall singing from the very same political hymnal as a liberal black Democrat in Senate Transportation Committee Chairman Willie Simmons, D-Cleveland. Simmons has proposed a $700 million tax package and challenged members of a study committee examining road needs to offer their own alternative revenue and spending plans. MDOT officials, most vocally Hall, say the state needs hundreds of millions of dollars a year to repair existing roads and bridges and construct new ones. Hall stood last month under the Founder’s Square Pavilion at the Neshoba County Fair repeating his call for an increase in the state’s gasoline tax for the second year in a row. Again, Hall pointed out that the state’s anemic gas tax was outdated and had to be updated. Hall worked hard during the 2013 Mississippi legislative session to advance two bills that would have created new revenue for the construction and maintenance of Mississippi’s roads and highways until they died in committee. In round numbers, Hall said told fairgoers Mississippi has about 4,700 miles of highways in dire need of repair at an estimated current cost of $960 million. Yet one of the biggest public policy and economic misconceptions in Mississippi is the notion that as gas prices have risen, state gas tax revenues have risen with them. That’s just not the case. Mississippi’s 18.4 cents per gallon gas tax (CPG) is a flat tax. When we paid $1 a gallon for gas, the tax was 18.4 CPG. When we pay $3.75 per gallon at the pump, the state tax is still 18.4 CPG. The only way the state takes in more revenue in gas taxes is for the volume of gas consumed to increase. The state’s 18.4 CPG gas tax was last raised in 1987. According to a report by the American Society of Civil Engineers, Mississippi’s flat gas tax isn’t keeping pace with the inflation of rising highway construction and maintenance costs and with the modern fuel economy improvements in today’s vehicles. Notice that Hall, the Republican, identified a higher level of revenue need than did Simmons, the Democrat. So the Mississippi State Senate task force examining the state transportation needs in preparation for a 2014 report will be hard pressed to blame calls for a tax hike for road and bridge finance a partisan issue. The fact is that many of the groups calling for stalling tactics on a serious discussion of higher gas taxes represent industries that are most responsible for road and bridge deterioration. And MDOT, after several years of running roughshod over legislators, is now seeing some political chickens come home to roost in terms of renewed oversight. The special interest groups are smart enough to recognize that. But the notion that the state needs more study of our outdated flat gas tax or of the massive need for road and bridge repair and construction statewide ignores what a 100-mile drive in any direction will readily demonstrate.

America: Just whose war is this? Wednesday, John Kerry told the Senate not to worry about the cost of an American war on Syria. The Saudis and Gulf Arabs, cash-fat on the $110-abarrel oil they sell U.S. consumers, will pick up the tab for the Tomahawk missiles. Has it come to this -- U.S. soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen as the mercenaries of sheiks, sultans and emirs, Hessians of the New World Order, hired out to do the big-time killing for Saudi and Sunni royals? Thursday, too, came a stunning report in the Washington Post. The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations has joined the Israeli lobby AIPAC in an all-out public campaign for a U.S. war on Syria Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center and Abe Foxman of the AntiDefamation League have invoked the Holocaust, with Hier charging the U.S. and Britain failed to rescue the Jews in 1942. Yet, if memory serves, in ‘42 the Brits were battling Rommel in the desert and the Americans were still collecting their dead at Pearl Harbor and dying on Bataan and Corregidor. The Republican Jewish Coalition, too, bankrolled by Sheldon Adelson, the
Macau casino mogul whose solicitude for the suffering children of Syria is the stuff Pat of legend, is Buchanan also backing Obama’s war. Columnist Adelson, who shelled out $70 million to bring down Barack, wants his pay-off -- war on Syria. And he is getting it. Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor have saluted and enlisted. Sheldon, fattest of all fat cats, is buying himself a war. Yet, is it really wise for Jewish organizations to put a Jewish stamp on a campaign to drag America into another war that a majority of their countrymen do not want to fight? Moreover, this war has debacle written all over it. Should it come, a divided nation will be lead by a diffident and dithering commander in chief who makes Adlai Stevenson look like Stonewall Jackson. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Martin Dempsey is having trouble even defining the mission. While Obama says it will be an in-and-out strike of hours, a “shot across the bow,” John McCain says the Senate resolution autho-
rizes robust strikes, lethal aid to the rebels and a campaign to bring down Bashar Assad. If the Republican Party backs this war, it will own this war. And U.S. involvement will last not for days, but for the duration. If the rebels then lose, we lose. And if the rebels win, who wins? Is it the same jihadists who just shelled that Christian village and terrorized that convent of Christian nuns? Is it the same rebels seen on the front page of Thursday’s New York Times about to execute, Einsatzgruppen-style, captive Syrian soldiers, forgetting only to have the victims of their war crime dig their own graves first? Does the U.S. Jewish community really want to be responsible for starting a war that ends with two million Christian Syrians facing a fate not unlike that of Poland’s Jews? About the debate on this war, there is an aspect of the absurd. We are told we must punish Assad for killing Syrians with gas, but we do not want Assad’s regime to fall. Which raises a question: How many Syrians must we kill with missiles to teach Assad he cannot kill any
more Syrians with gas? Artillery, fine. Just no gas. Iran and Russia agree chemical weapons were used. Vladimir Putin has said Russia will back military action against those who did it. The Russians have put out a 100-page document tracing the March use of chemical weapons to the rebels. The Turks reportedly intercepted small amounts of sarin going to the rebels. We claim solid proof that Assad’s regime authorized and used chemical weapons. Why not tell the Russians to meet us in the Security Council where we will prove our “slam-dunk” case. If we can, and do, we will have far greater support for collective sanctions or action than we do now. But the idea of launching missiles based on evidence we will not reveal about Syria’s use of chemical weapons, strikes that will advance the cause of the al-Qaida terrorists who killed 3,000 of us and are anxious to kill more, would be an act of such paralyzing stupidity one cannot believe that even this crowd would consciously commit it.

Lawsuit to block vouchers unfair and unjust Before Attorney General Eric Holder and the Justice Department move forward with a lawsuit to block vouchers for thousands of low-income students trapped in failing Louisiana public schools, he ought to speak to parents whose children benefit from the statewide voucher measured called the Louisiana Scholarship Program. One of those parents is Lakisha Fuselier. Fuselier is a single mother of four. Her 8-year-old son, Albert, is a part of the voucher program. A spokeswoman in Gov. Bobby Jindal’s office emailed me her story, which first appeared in The Daily Advertiser last December. “Lakisha Fuselier wanted to do something to help her son, Albert. He was struggling in public school classes,” the Daily Advertiser writes. “His academic problems were compounded by a diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. ... She knew he needed individual attention, something he was not getting in public school.” In response to my request, Ms. Fuselier provided the following statement

to the governor’s office: “When I heard about this program, I jumped on Cal the chance Thomas to try something new Columnist for my son. I see the difference it has made in him from an academic standpoint and as an individual. He loves school now and is more outgoing. I hope to be able to get my other kids in the program because I know that it works.” Attorney General Holder’s stated reason for suing to eliminate the voucher program in Louisiana is that it “impedes the desegregation process.” The government argues that allowing parents to transfer their children out of failing Louisiana schools would upset the racial balance of schools in districts still under federal desegregation orders. “There’s no denying the state’s racist history of school segregation or its ugly efforts ... to undermine desegregation orders...,” writes the Washington
Post. “...But the situation today bears no resemblance to those terrible days. Since most of the students using vouchers are black, it is, as State Education Superintendent John White pointed out ... ‘a little ridiculous’ to argue that the departure of mostly black students to voucher schools would make their home school systems less white.” In a recent appearance on “Meet the Press,” Gov. Jindal said, “There are too many kids in this country today trapped in poor neighborhoods with poor, failing schools. In Louisiana, we’re doing something about it.” Is Holder really saying he’d rather they didn’t? President and Mrs. Obama can provide private schooling for their daughters. The president’s attorney general wants to deny the same to Louisianians whose only hope out of poverty is a decent education. Is that fair? Is it just? Next to a right to life, the most important right is a good education. Without it, low-income children are denied the American Dream. It is the ultimate civil rights issue.

The racial makeup of a school that fails to provide quality education shouldn’t matter. What difference does it make if a child fails in an all-black school or an integrated one? According to The Weekly Standard, more people have applied for vouchers in Louisiana than are available: 10,000 in 2012, with only 5,000 receiving them, and 12,000 this year, with 8,000 awarded by lottery. Education Secretary Arne Duncan tried to end the school choice program in D.C., but reversed himself in the face of a public outcry. Minority parents should amplify that outcry across the country. If Republicans are smart, they will make school choice their issue and reclaim their history of being for civil rights before the Democrats commandeered it. In a cruel reversal of what happened in the 1960s, Democrats now appear to stand in the schoolhouse door, trying to keep poor children out.

Dive signals more treasure at wreck BOSTON — Fog was swallowing his ship’s bow, the winds were picking up and undersea explorer Barry Clifford figured he needed to leave within an hour to beat the weather back to port. It was time enough, he decided, for a final dive of the season over the wreck of the treasure-laden pirate ship, Whydah, off Cape Cod. That Sept. 1 dive at a spot Clifford had never explored before uncovered proof that a staggering amount of undiscovered riches — as many as 400,000 coins — might be found there. Instead of packing up for the year, Clifford is planning another trip to the Whydah, the only authenticated pirate ship wreck in U.S. waters. “I can hardly wait,” he said. The Whydah was built as a slave ship in 1716 and captured in February 1717 by pirate captain “Black Sam” Bellamy. Just two months later, it sank in a ferocious storm a quarter mile off Wellfleet, Mass., killing Bellamy and all but two of the 145 other men on board and taking down the plunder from 50 vessels Bellamy raided. Clifford located the Whydah site in 1984 and has since documented 200,000 artifacts, including gold, guns and even the leg of a young boy who took up with the crew. He only recently got indica-
tions there may be far more coins than the roughly 12,000 he’s already documented. Just before his death in April, the Whydah project’s late historian, Ken Kinkor, uncovered a Colonial-era document indicating that in the weeks before the Whydah sank, Bellamy raided two vessels bound for Jamaica. “It is said that in those vessels were 400,000 pieces of 8/8,” it read.
What is chemical weapons ‘red line’? The ghastly images reveal rows of the dead, many of them children, wrapped in white burial shrouds, and survivors gasping for air, their bodies twitching, foam oozing from mouths. This was unlike any other scene in Syria’s brutal civil war, where bombs and bullets have killed and maimed tens of thousands over the past 2½ years. The Aug. 21 attack on the rebel-held suburbs of Damascus was carried out, the U.S. says, with chemical weapons. It crossed what President Barack Obama calls a “red line” and, he says, demands a military response against the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad. But in a war where only a fraction of more than 100,000 Syrian deaths have come from poison gas — the Obama administration says more than 1,400 died in the attack — what is it about chemical weapons that set them apart in policy and

perception? Some experts say chemical weapons belong in a special category. They point to the moral and legal taboos that date to World War I, when the gassing of thousands of soldiers led to a worldwide treaty banning the use of these weapons. The experts also say these chemicals are not just repugnant but pose national security risks.
First lady: Anti-fat effort changes ways WASHINGTON — Michelle Obama said Friday that her anti-childhood obesity campaign is creating a “cultural shift” in how Americans live and eat, and is beginning to have a positive influence on children’s health. As an example, she cited something she said she couldn’t imagine when the “Let’s Move” program was launched nearly four years ago: television commercials pitching fast-food breakfast sandwiches made with healthier egg whites instead of whole eggs. But the first lady said more work is needed to solve the childhood obesity problem. “Make no mistake about it, we are changing the conversation in this country,” Mrs. Obama said at a backto-school event at a District of Columbia elementary school. “We are creating a cultural shift in how we live and eat and our efforts are beginning to have a real impact on our children’s lives.”

Newell said he and other council members remain on the fence about the issue. He said Tupelo Mayor Jason Shelton wants to look at alternative funding sources before going ahead with the design proposal.
Schools set religious and 2-year-old Vianett Castillo were in a parking expression policies OXFORD — Oxford and Lafayette County schools have adopted policies to ensure students’ freedom of religious expression, as required by a new state law. The Oxford Eagle reports that such expression had not previously been in jeopardy. But the Mississippi law mandates that all local school boards adopt policies. The four-page plan adopted by the Lafayette County School District on Thursday was borrowed from the state’s recommended policy. It offers details on all students’ freedom to speak and share their religious viewpoints at school. The policy says a student cannot face discrimination for submitting religious content in homework, artwork and other written and oral assignments. Students may submit a prayer instead of a poem when required as a class assignment. The policy also says students may organize prayer groups and the groups must be given the same access to facilities for assembling as any other group.
2 killed when truck rolls away, hits vehicle TUPELO — Authorities have released the names of a woman and her young daughter who were killed Friday in Tupelo while sitting in a vehicle that was struck by a runaway tractor-trailer. Lee County coroner Carolyn Green says
lot outside an auto insurance office when the incident happened. Authorities say after the driver of the 18-wheeler got out to make a delivery, the rig rolled away and crushed the vehicle in which Acosta and her daughter were sitting. The incident remains under investigation. The truck driver’s name was not immediately released.
Gloster aldermen raise taxes, fees
Crossings will stay noisy in Tupelo TUPELO — A proposed quiet zone policy for railroad crossings in Tupelo is not likely to develop in the near future because of costs involved with the project. WTVA reported the City Council has been in serious discussions since May about design solutions to reduce noise at Tupelo’s 24 railroad crossings. The estimated cost of designing a proposal — $138,000 — would give city officials an idea of how much it would cost to upgrade each railroad crossing. Concerned about the cost of taking the concept to completion, the council has tabled the matter for future discussion. It had been on the council agenda for its meeting this past week. Councilman Jim Newell says a national hotel chain may be considering a downtown Tupelo location, but the noise from trains could be a factor in whether a decision is made to go proceed.
GLOSTER — Faced with the loss of tax revenue from the burned Georgia-Pacific plywood mill, aldermen have voted to raise taxes and utility fees and cut employee hours. The Enterprise-Journal reports the tax levy will rise from 33 to 36 mills. That will mean an increase in annual property taxes of roughly $15 on a $50,000 house and $30 on a house valued at $100,000 house. The budget approved this past week allocates $644,580 for the general fund, $294,360 for the water and sewer fund, $162,000 for the natural gas fund, and $7,400 for the fire protection fund. The budget also includes a $2.6 million Community Development Block Grant dedicated to development of a wood pellet mill. It does not provide funding for employee pay raises or overtime pay. One reason for the millage increase is the projected loss of property taxes from the Georgia-Pacific plywood plant, which burned last year. The town is engaged in litigation with GeorgiaPacific over responsibility for the fire and cleanup of the site.

Mayor wants aides to live in town MCCOMB — Mayor Whitney Rawlings said he wants city department heads to live inside the McComb city limits, a stance that could narrow the field of candidates as the city searches for police and fire chiefs. The police and fire departments are in the hands of interim leaders. Police Chief Greg Martin and Fire Chief B.J. Nettles both retired Aug. 31. Deputy Chief Stephen Adams has been named interim fire chief until while Deputy Police Chief Scott McKenzie is serving as interim police chief. Both live outside city limits, as do most McComb police officers and firefighters. Rawlings’ position would mean the interim chiefs and others in the departments wouldn’t be eligible for the jobs if an ordinance requiring residency is enacted by the Board of Selectmen. The current ordinance has no requirement. “When this ordinance was put in place, I don’t think that they perceived that 30 years later, almost the entire police and fire department
would live outside of McComb,” Rawlings said. “I think they were trying to include a few candidates, but now it’s the whole department.” Rawlings said he wants to amend the ordinance that sets residency requirements for city officials. As it stands, all city employees must live within an 18-mile radius of McComb but cannot live in Louisiana.
3-year-old dies; was found in vehicle HATTIESBURG — The Forrest County sheriff is investigating the death of a 3-year-old boy who was found in a hot vehicle. Coroner Butch Benedict tells the Hattiesburg American that Cameron Shaw likely overheated in the vehicle parked at a home by U.S. Highway 49 near the Stone County and Forrest County line. Benedict says first responders couldn’t find a pulse before taking the child to Stone County Hospital in Wiggins, where he died. Forrest County Sheriff Billy McGee says the death was an accident, but investigators are trying to determine whether to bring charges against the mother. He says her
account of what happened left lingering questions and authorities were waiting for results of a drug test.
Clarke has 3rd fire fatality in 3 weeks QUITMAN — Investigators are still trying to identify a woman who was killed in a house fire early Friday in east Mississippi. Clarke County Coroner Greg Fairchild tells The Associated Press on Saturday that authorities don’t have a positive identification of the body found in the rubble. It was Clarke County’s third fire death in three weeks. The home was owned by a 60-year-old woman. It was in the Matherville community in south Clarke County, near the Wayne County line. Sheriff Todd Kemp says he didn’t immediately know whether the home had smoke alarms. It was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived about 6:30 a.m. Friday. A neighbor reported the fire.
Two pedestrians killed on highway OCEAN SPRINGS — Authorities say a man
and a young boy were killed Friday night when they were trying to walk across a south Mississippi highway and were struck by a sport utility vehicle. Mississippi Highway Patrol Cpl. Jason Gazzo says 43-year-old said Jeffrey Dogget and 4-year-old Brandon Campo were trying to cross state Highway 609 near St. Martin at about 9 p.m., when they were hit by a 2006 GMC Yukon. The man and the boy, both from Ocean Springs, died at the scene. Gazzo says they were not related. Gazzo says a preliminary investigation showed alcohol was not a factor in the crash. The driver’s name was not released.

Parish Council on Thursday passed a resolution opposing the project and will seek a meeting with the Army Corps of Engineers about the proposal. The resolution said the Rankin-Hinds Flood Control District and the Pearl River Vision Foundation are considering construction of a dam and creating a 1,500-acre lake on the Pearl River in Jackson. The reduced water flow could eliminate 1,500 acres of wetland and more than 1,500 acres of forest in Louisiana, adversely impact the swamp tour industry and possibly jeopardize three endangered species of wildlife. It would also affect the salinity levels in the Mississippi Sound and cause problems for the oyster populations in Louisiana and Mississippi, the resolution said. Andrew Whitehurst of the Gulf Restoration Network said the plan, which would control flooding but also create development opportunities along a lake, would dredge and widen the Pearl River in Jackson from its current width of 250 feet to 1,500 feet. The lake and a cross-channel weir, or low-head dam, would be near the Interstate 20 Pearl River Bridge, he said.
Brookhaven OKs tigher budget BROOKHAVEN — Some programs and positions have been eliminated in a trimmeddown budget for 20132014 fiscal year in Brookhaven. The Daily Leader reports reports the budget was approved by the Board of Aldermen this past week. It projects expenditures of about $12.8 million in the fiscal year
that begins Oct. 1, down from the $13.5 million budget of the previous year. In the new budget, salaries of city employees and the aldermen are frozen. More than 50 percent of the city budget consists of salaries and insurance. New items in the budget include $5,000 for recycling initiatives and $50,000 that is set aside for future parks among other things. Services that consumed a chunk of last year’s budget are not in the one approved for 2013-2014, helping the city cut back on spending.
Construction begins at long-delayed park NETTLETON — Construction has begun on a long-delayed children’s park at a 2.5-acre site donated by a local resident. Doris Causey — who gave Nettleton the land four years ago — told WTVA she lived at the site with her family for more than four decades. “I can’t wait,” Causey said. “It’s prayers answered.” Progress on converting the site into a park has been on hold for several years because of a shortage of funding. Causey has worked with city leaders to secure grants to help build the park, and has gotten some help from her neighbors. “The community itself is very supportive of it,” Mayor Jimmy Taylor said. “It has just been awfully difficult to actually get anything started.” Site work has started and is expected to be completed in about two weeks. All that is needed to complete the park is money for playground equipment.

His first comedy album, “Standard Operating Procedure,� was released in late 2012. His TV credits include “Live at Gotham,� ‘‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,� ‘‘Conan� and Comedy Central’s “The Half Hour.� Rutherford and CattaPreta last performed in New Orleans as part of Moshe Kasher’s show at One Eyed Jacks in April. The duo also hit several local mics, winning over crowds at the Howlin’ Wolf Den, Hi-Ho and Lost Love Lounge. Finally, comedian Barry, fresh off his second “all crowd work� tour, will perform Nov. 13. Barry’s dry wit and deadpan delivery make him a favorite of many comedians. Hell Yes Fest draws talent from New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Austin, Baton Rouge and Hattiesburg, Miss. In addition to the announced headliners, New Yorkbased comedians John F. O’Donnell, Jono Zalay, Scotland Green and Mark Normand are slated to perform. Green and Normand are both natives of New Orleans. Normand opened for Amy Schumer’s May 2013 shows at the House of Blues. Representing Los Angeles are comedians Jake
Weisman, Dave Ross, Pat Bishop, Allen Strickland Williams and Karl Hess. Weisman and Hess also performed at the last year’s festival. Comics Nick Mullen, Adam Friedland, Sara Armour and Jenn Tisdale, out of Washington, D.C., will be performing at Hell Yes Fest 2013. Mullen also performed at last year’s festival. The New Movement has a sister theater in Austin, so it’s no surprise to get a hefty contingent of Texan comedians. So far, Austin-based comics Michael Foulk, Lisa Friedrich, Katie Pengra, Terance McDavid, Christina Parrish and Ashley Barnhill have been booked. Comedians Jamie Arrington and Brittany Purvis will travel from Hattiesburg, and Baton Rouge’s Howard Hall is also slated to perform. Several comedians who used to live in New Orleans are invited to return — Matt Wayman from Denver, Shawn Dugas from New York, and Drew Platt from San Francisco. Hell Yes Fest 2013 kicks off Nov. 12 with an opening-night party and an all-locals lineup at One Eyed Jacks that shows off the best of New Orleans comedy.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian And the winners are ... Celebrating the Best of the Best, the 2013 Daily Corinthian Reader’s Choice Awards special section will be presented in the Sunday, Sept. 22 newspaper.
Mom is caregiver and referee between husband and sons DEAR ABBY: My husband is 99 percent bed-bound with primary progressive MS. My oldest son is bipolar (he’s off his meds and doing great), and my youngest son has Asperger’s. I know ... wow. My husband refuses to even try to understand the boys. When they have behavior problems, he tells them if he could, he would backhand them. Great parenting, huh? But at the same time, the boys and I are expected to have our lives revolve around his disability and stop everything when he needs help. His MS is always top priority. I hate watching him go through his disease, but does that give him a free pass to bully our boys? I realize the boys (especially the younger one) have issues that are difficult to deal with, and I’m not giving them a free pass, either, but I feel like I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. If I support my sons, I’m a bad wife. If I support my husband, I’m a bad mom. And -- not to sound selfish -- who supports me? I’m not really expecting any answers, but needed to vent, for lack of better terminology. I do have a support system of extended family and friends, but sometimes the lack of support inside the house makes me crazy. Any words of wisdom, Abby? -- STRETCHED THIN IN COLO-
RADO D E A R STRETCHED THIN: You have a right to vent. You’re carrying an enorAbigail mous load on shoulVan Buren your ders right now. I wish Dear Abby you wouldn’t label yourself as a “bad” anything because you are just a mortal woman who is trying to cope. Your husband is understandably bitter and frustrated and sometimes takes it out on those closest to him -- you and the boys. His MS is top priority because he’s incapacitated and it has to be. Your boys need to understand the importance of not stressing out their father. I’m glad your older son is doing well off medication, if that’s OK with his doctor. But it’s my understanding that people with a chemical imbalance need to stay on their meds to maintain their equilibrium. As to your younger son, people with Asperger’s may have problems with their social interactions, but they can be taught rules of acceptable behavior. Perhaps it’s time to work a little harder on that. As to your own needs, believe me, I sympathize. If you need to
vent, it’s important for your sanity that you be able to do so. It’s wonderful that you have extended family and friends to support you, but if at all possible, find someone who can offer a respite from your caregiving responsibilities every few weeks. DEAR ABBY: My sister and I have settled my mother’s estate except for one item: Mom’s cookbooks. In particular, one book that Mom used regularly and in which she modified recipes. My mother was a phenomenal cook, and this book is a real bone of contention for us all. What should I do? -- LOST FOR WORDS DEAR LOST FOR WORDS: One person can volunteer to be the “family cooks’ librarian” and if anyone wants to prepare a modified recipe, the librarian could scan it or photocopy it and send it. Or, all of the modified recipes could be photocopied at once and distributed to family members who would like to have them. The task shouldn’t be onerous because I doubt your mother modified every recipe in the book. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Wishing you were someone other than who you are is a form of self-rejection that can only hold you back today. It’s better to spend your time working with your strengths and playing to your talents. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). This is the kind of day in which older Taurus people lament the innocent, aimless, meandering youth that’s behind them, while younger ones fantasize about the freedoms of adult life. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Wanting to be your best is an admirable desire, and yet there is a point at which constant improvement may be a form of selfrejection. Take a break from improving, and like yourself “as is.” CANCER (June 22-July 22). There’s a fine line between the heavy load that builds your muscles and the one that injures you. Let the good people around you help you out and keep you from taking on too much. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re
not in a mood to conform, but doing one thing that everyone else is doing will put you on a treadmill of social expectation. Remember that this is not a trap. You can step off and do your own thing at any moment. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Just because someone asks you for answers doesn’t mean you have to provide them. In fact, you could be doing someone a disservice by answering their question and robbing them of one of life’s mysteries. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The human mind loves a pattern. The first step in a new direction seems illogical to the onlookers and may be met with protest. But keep on the path, and everyone will start to deal with the new pattern. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Everyone has different social tolerances. Some people are likely to speak more candidly in groups, and this may be uncomfortable. But it’s better than a closed-off environment where no
one grows. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). As disgruntled as you may be in dealing with red tape and bureaucracy, it would be an even bigger ordeal to start your own country. So if you can manage to laugh it off, do so as often as possible. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You need more pleasure in your life. These days your tastes are unpredictable even to you, so be sure to try the different and unlikely options available to you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Maybe you’re just being picky, but when it comes to romantic relationships, you’d like to know the real person and not the person that person thinks you want to see. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The answers are not upstairs in the attic of your mind. So don’t even bother climbing up there. The answers are easily observed in the world around you, though you’ll have to slow down to bear witness.

Mississippi State scalps Alcorn State Associated Press
STARKVILLE — Dak Prescott spent the second half of his debut as Mississippi State’s starting quarterback standing on the sidelines, giving out high-fives and laughing with teammates. He was so good during the first half, he wasn’t needed on the field. The sophomore threw for 174 yards and two touchdowns and ran for a touchdown as the Bulldogs built a huge halftime and breezed past Alcorn State 51-7 on Saturday afternoon. “We got in a rhythm, we were comfortable and everybody did a good job,” Prescott said. “Everybody did their
1/11th out there.” Mississippi State (1-1) didn’t use several regular starters, including quarterback Tyler Russell, who suffered a concussion in the Bulldogs’ season-opening loss to Oklahoma State. It didn’t matter. The Bulldogs led 21-0 by early in the second quarter and 37-0 by halftime. It was the most points in the first half for the program since 1996. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound Prescott has the reputation as an effective runner but inconsistent passer. He looked more than capable against the Braves, completing 12 of 19 passes, including a perfect 14-yard strike to Derrick Mil-
ton in the front corner of the end zone for his first passing touchdown of the season. Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said Prescott did everything he was asked. Prescott played in 12 of 13 games last season as a backup. Mullen said he hopes Russell can return for the Bulldogs’ first Southeastern Conference game next weekend against Auburn, but Prescott looked comfortable leading the offense in his absence. “He made some good reads, managed the offense well, made plays when we needed him to make them and I’m proud of that,” Mullen said.

Ashton Shumpert rushed for 98 yards and two touchdowns. Nick Griffin added 53 yards on the ground and a touchdown. Alcorn State (1-1), which plays in the Football Championship Subdivision, had two first downs on its first drive but didn’t get another one until the fourth quarter. The Braves scored their only touchdown on a 25-yard pass from John Gibbs Jr. to Tollete George. Mississippi State was obviously much more talented than the Braves, but the steady stream of offense was still encouraging for the Bull-

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Indiana State was painfully close to pulling off a huge win against an FBS team. The Sycamores just made a huge mistake at the wrong time. Ricardo Allen’s interception with 19 seconds remaining preserved Purdue’s 20-14 win over Indiana State on Saturday afternoon. Indiana State (0-2) reached the Purdue 36yard line in the final minute before Allen stepped in front of Mike Perish’s pass and gave Darrell Hazell his first win as Purdue’s coach. Perish passed for 284 yards and two touchdowns for Indiana State, a FCS program that lost to Indiana 73-35 the previous week. The Sycamores were disappointed with the loss, but hopeful after putting together a much better effort. Indiana Please see PURDUE | 11A
Ole Miss surges to win over SE Missouri Associated Press
OXFORD — Quarterbacks Bo Wallace and Barry Brunetti directed Mississippi to a 31-point outburst in a 20-minute span in the first half to highlight a win over FCS member Southeast Missouri 31-13. The Rebels (2-0) scored on five consecutive series in the decisive surge, highlighted by touchdown passes of 64 and 67 yards from Wallace to Evan Engram and Donte Moncrief, respectively. Wallace was 8 of 15 for 188 yards and did not play in the second half. Brunetti scored a 4-yard
touchdown run and had a game-high 111 yards on 18 carries. Ole Miss accounted for 532 yards in total offense, including a 10-yard touchdown run from I’Tavious Mathers and a 37-yard field goal from Andrew Ritter. Southeast Missouri (0-2) of the Ohio Valley Conference, was led by Scott Lathorp, who threw touchdown passes of 14 and 16 yards to D.J. Foster and Spencer Davis, respectively. Lathrop finished 16 of 24 for 159 yards. The Ole Miss win, its fourth straight dating back to last
season, came before 60,815 in the only home appearance for the Rebels in the opening five games. Ole Miss needed a touchdown run in the final 90 seconds to win their SEC and season opener at Vanderbilt. This time, the Rebels were never seriously threatened, dominating a 20-minute period that spanned the first and second periods. During the scoring surge, the Ole Miss defense, led by linebacker Serderius Bryant with15 tackles, forced three punts, a Southeast Missouri fumble and turned the Red-
hawks over on downs. Southeast Missouri made a brief flurry in the third period on Lathrop’s two touchdown passes. Foster led the Redhawks with six receptions for 53 yards.

Murray, Gurley lead Georgia past S.Carolina Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — So much for Aaron Murray’s reputation as a quarterback who can’t win the big game. The senior took care of that with one of the best performances of his career. Murray threw for 309 yards and four touchdowns, Georgia’s beleaguered defense finally came up with a stop, and the 11th-ranked Bulldogs defeated No. 6 South Carolina 41-30 on Saturday for an early edge in the Southeastern Conference East. Coming off a 38-35 loss at Clemson, Georgia could not afford another defeat if it wanted to remain a serious contender for a national title. Murray capped his stellar day for the Bulldogs (1-1, 1-0 SEC) by slipping away from
South Carolina star Jadeveon Clowney and connecting with Justin Scott-Wesley on an 85yard touchdown pass with 13 minutes remaining. “It was a lot of fun,” said Murray, who came in with a 1-6 record against Top 10 opponents. “It’s definitely up there.” The defense made sure it stood up, stuffing Mike Davis on fourth-and-goal from inside the 1. Murray and the offense took it from there, running off the remaining 8:28. “That was by far my favorite part of the game,” coach Mark Richt said of the final possession. Davis led the Gamecocks (11, 0-1) with 149 yards rushing. Connor Shaw passed for 228 yards and two touchdowns, ran for 75 yards, but also lost
a crucial fumble in the third quarter in Georgia territory. That said, this loss was on the Clowney and the defense. They simply couldn’t stop Murray. “Aaron played a pretty good game,” said Clowney, who had a lackluster opening game and was largely shut down again, held to three tackles and one sack. “He threw it quick and ran it away from me the whole game.” Georgia snapped a threeyear losing streak against the Gamecocks, seizing control of the SEC East though South Carolina still has a chance to get back in the race, thanks to a more favorable schedule. In fact, the Bulldogs won the division the last two years despite losing to their neighboring rival.
Todd Gurley had another huge day for the Bulldogs on the ground, rushing for 136 yards on 30 bruising carries and scoring two touchdowns. His first came on a 2-yard run in a wild first half, which ended with the teams tied at 24. Then, in the final seconds of the third quarter, he hauled in an 8-yard TD pass from Murray to give Georgia a 3424 lead, running the wrong route but getting open when Murray motioned him where to go. Davis ended the third with a 75-yard run down the sideline, and scored on a 3-yard run early in the fourth to make it 34-30. South Carolina missed the extra point.

dogs after an ugly 21-3 loss to Oklahoma State last weekend. Prescott showed his poise early in the first quarter by converting two straight passes on 4th and 9 for a first down. The first was an 18-yard strike to Joe Morrow, but it was disallowed after officials ruled Alcorn State had called timeout. A sold out Davis Wade Stadium groaned, but Prescott came right back and hit Malcolm Johnson for a 23-yard gain. “The first one just showed me I could do it,” Prescott said. “So I just relaxed, we called a different play and I did it again.” Two plays later, Prescott showed his running ability, bursting through the line for an 11-yard touchdown run and a 7-0 lead. The rout was just beginning. Mississippi State outgained Alcorn State 308-30 in total yards in the first half. The Bulldogs finished with a 556163 advantage. The second half started just as lopsided. Brandon Holloway ran the kickoff back 95 yards to Alcorn’s 1-yard line, and Mississippi State scored two plays later on Shumpert’s first touchdown run for a 44-0 lead with 13:57 left in the third quarter. Mississippi State freshman Damian Williams made his college debut in the second half, completing 5 of 8 passes for 69 yards and an interception. Alcorn State’s George finished with four catches for 80 yards and the Braves’ only touchdown. Gibbs was 11 of 25 passing for 135 yards, one touchdown and one interception. “We made some mistakes early,” Alcorn State coach Jay Hopson said. “We turned the ball over on offense. We have got to start protecting the football on offense. We can’t give them anything cheap.”
PURDUE CONTINUED FROM 10A
State outgained Purdue 295 yards to 284. Akeem Hunt returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown and ran for 82 yards on 22 carries for the Boilermakers (1-1). Indiana State played without running back Shakir Bell, who ran for 113 yards in the opener before leaving with a bruised shoulder. The Sycamores ran for just 39 yards on 22 carries against Purdue. Still, their ability to move the ball without Bell left them feeling good about their potential. The Boilermakers returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown. B.J. Knauf fielded the ball at the 2-yard line, then handed off to Hunt, who ran up the left sideline for the remaining 90 yards for the score 14 seconds into the game. Purdue tried to keep the momentum going, but Hunt was stopped for no gain on a fourth-and-1 from the Boilermakers’ 41.

and-13 from its own 15, offensive coordinator Mike Bobo sent in a play the team had not worked on all week. “That wasn’t in the playbook,” Murray said. “I was like, ‘I hope everyone knows what this play is.” Murray scrambled away from Clowney with a bit of an assist from backup left tackle Mark Beard, who took over after Kenarious Gates went out with an ankle injury. Beard was beaten inside but gave Clowney enough of a shove to allow Murray to sprint away. It was easy from there. Scott-Wesley was all alone behind the secondary, hauled in the pass and was gone, the Gamecocks having no chance of chasing down a state high school track champion. “I think today I showed I’m a wide receiver first,” Scott-Wesley said with a smile. The Gamecocks weren’t done. Davis nearly powered into the end zone before he was stopped a couple of inches short. South Carolina had to go for it on fourth down, and coach Steve Spurrier called a quick pitch to Davis out of the shotgun. Amarlo Herrara led a swarm of tacklers that stopped Davis short of the end zone and pushed him back. “I didn’t even know it was fourth down,” Herrara said. “I just heard everybody cheering and figured it was good.” The teams combined for 990 yards — Georgia had 536 — in a game that sparked such passion, a couple of South Carolina coaches got into it with each other on the sideline early in the third quarter. They had to be pulled apart by another assistant. “It was pretty obvious that Georgia was the stronger of the two teams out there,” Spurrier said. “They kicked our tails up and down the field.”

After South Carolina grabbed a 3-0 lead, the Gamecocks ran only three offensive plays in nearly 13 minutes. Murray threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Arthur Lynch, and Georgia caught the Gamecocks napping on the ensuing kickoff. Collin Barber dribbled an onside kick that was recovered easily by Blake Sailors. The Bulldogs drove from there for Patrick Beless’ 22-yard field goal. South Carolina went three-and-out, and Murray extended Georgia’s lead to 17-3 with a 6-yard touchdown pass to Keith Marshall swinging out of the backfield. The Gamecocks rallied. Brandon Wilds’ scored on a 7-yard run, and South Carolina tied it on the first of Shaw two touchdown passes to Nick Jones, an 18-yarder set up by Barber’s fumbled snap on an attempted punt. The teams traded touchdowns in the final 1:42 of the half, Gurley powering in from the 2 and South Carolina evening the score again on Shaw’s 30-yard TD pass to Jones with just 13 seconds remaining.

The many deaths of Col. William P. Rogers There is an old story about a group of people viewing an event of some sort, and afterwards, when asked to describe what they saw, each person describes a different scene. Keep in mind, each person was an “eyewitness,” but they all came away with a separate Tom image. I come Parson across this Park Ranger quite often in my research as participants of a particular battle, even the same small part of a particular battle, cannot agree on what actually happened. It makes my job challenging at times. Take the Battle of Corinth. Over the two days of fighting there were 860 men killed here in town. Out of all of those men the one death which was witnessed by the most people was that of Colonel William Peleg Rogers of the 2nd Texas Infantry. He died while personally leading the attack against the little fort called Battery Robinett. And no two stories of his death are the same. I’ve talked about Col. W.P. Rogers in previous articles, but for those who missed them, here is a short recap. Rogers was a native of Georgia, raised in Alabama, lived in Mississippi and made his final home in Texas. H was a veteran of the war with Mexico and he had fought at Shiloh and Iuka. There is no question about the courage he dis-
This photograph was taken by Nicholas Brown shortly after the battle. The body in the center of the photo near the stump is widely believed to be Col. W.P. Rogers with his horse to the right. played in the last minutes of his life during the battle. On that hot October morning thousands of men saw him at the head of his regiment, and for his conspicuous bravery he was buried where he fell, by the Union, with full military honors. On top of my desk I have 24 different accounts and they all attest to his bravery. They just can’t agree on “how” he died. Some say he was on foot, some say on horseback. Some say he was on the wall of the fort, some say he fell over a hundred yards away. A rather famous photograph taken by Nicholas Brown was used to argue their cases by several observers. The first hint of disagreement began in 1885 when Gen. Dabney Maury (Rogers’ division commander) was in Galveston giving a speech about the
battle. He claimed “Col. Rodgers of the 2nd Texas fell within the works he stormed.” This didn’t sound right to Private James Graham of the 43rd Ohio Infantry who claimed to have seen Rogers fall “more than a hundred yards from Robinett.” Kent Barnett of the 27th Ohio, who had been just a few yards to the right of Graham, said he saw Rogers fall as well. The way he told it, Rogers was still on his horse and within 100 feet when he was hit. Charles Budd of Iowa used a map he drew of the battlefield to pinpoint the exact site and was adamant the colonel had been standing on the parapet wall (the flat part on top) and fell off when he was shot. Jonathon Hiran of the 63rd Ohio was in agreement and recalled shooting at Rogers him-
self. The Chaplain of the 63rd Ohio, Benjamin Fry, walked over the ground and confirmed the famous photograph was indeed of Rogers, and “The footprints showed that the horse had reached the very edge of the ditch, but staggered backward as he fell.” You couldn’t tell this to Surgeon E. R. Reed who freely admitted he wasn’t at the battle but arrived an hour after the smoke cleared. Reed had it on account from Nicholas Reed, the photographer who took the picture, that Rogers is not even in the photo and the dead horse belonged to Lt. Charles Heyl of the 43rd Ohio. Of course this story would not go unchallenged and soon Pvt. Hagle of the 11th Missouri chimed in that “almost the entire regiment plain-
ly saw the Colonel and his horse both fall, the man from the saddle and the horse instantly thereafter.” He insisted Pvt. Bob Wood of Company D fired one of the fatal bullets. Col. John Fuller, the commander of all of the Ohio regiments clustered around Robinett, claimed he got a good look at Rogers face, “when not more than 30 paces and noting the peculiar expression it had. He looked neither right nor left, neither at his own or our men, but with eyes partly closed.” Fuller told how Rogers, “was unhorsed soon after leaving the cover of the woods [300 yards from the fort], but he advanced fearlessly on foot at the head of the column. When his color-bearer was shot down, Rogers picked up the flag and deliberately carried it forward until he fell, a few feet before
reaching the ditch of the little fort.” James Hathaway of the 43rd Ohio told the story of watching as “Col. Rogers planted the flag on the top of the fort. Yes, but no sooner up than Rogers fell to the ditch, dragging the flag with him.” George Henry of the 11th Missouri watched Rogers fall well short of the fort wall and came up with a souvenir to bolster his claim. “I went to him and in his right hand he clasped his sword. I took it and have it to-day, one of my most prized trophies of the war.” Henry may have gotten into an argument with a private in Company H who knew for a fact, “After the Johnnies were repulsed Lieut. E. R. Applegate of Co. H, 11th Mo., secured Col. Rogers’s sword and still has it in his possession.” Since the two claims were made within a month of each other in 1894, at least one of them had someone else’s sword. And then there was the tale given by Major General William S. Rosecrans, commander of all of the Union forces during the battle. “The head of the enemy’s column reached within a few feet of Battery Robinett, and Colonel Rogers, who was leading it, colors in hand, dismounted, planted a flag-staff on the bank of the ditch, and fell there, shot by one of our drummer boys, who, with a pistol, was helping to defend Robinett.” A poor observer, Rosecrans was actually in the Please see ROGERS | 3B

Identify food sources through low-impact scouting Now that the opening of dove season is out of the way, lots of area sportsmen will be getting their exercise in at an expeditious pace as they traverse the landscape to locate a hot-spot for the next most popular hunting season slated to open. Archery season for deer is right around the corner, and dedicated archers have little time to waste in finding a promising opening day destination. Sportsmen who hunt in the state to our north have the least amount of time to spare of all. The Tennessee archery season begins on Sept. 28. Mississippi’s hunters will have to wait a few more days before getting their first crack at flinging an arrow. The Mississippi season opens on Tuesday, Oct. 1, and runs through
Nov. 22. Scouting is an absolute must for successfully hunting whiteDavid tails, but Green there are two things Outdoors a person should be mindful of when parking the vehicle and making the trek across his hunting territory: Keep the scouting at low-impact and take note of the available food sources while on the walk. Low-impact scouting should be conducted during the mid-day period when most deer are bedded. Treat it like you would an actual hunt. Too much stomping around; and leaving scent behind can and will cause deer to
minimize daytime movements. The deer’s need to feed comes secondary to staying alive. I’m reminded of this every time I think about the conversation I had with an ole buddy around this time last year. He carried on and on about how hard he was scouting his property each weekend prior to the opening of the season. It’s no wonder he had trouble in seeing any deer at all once it finally arrived. Deer, like any other game animal, lead simple lives. They must have sufficient food and water, cover for alluding predators, reproduce, and keep stresses to a minimum. During bow season, prior to the mating period later on this fall, success is largely dependent on locating and setting up
on a food source the deer are using at the moment. The deer’s only concern right now is bulking up for what lies ahead. And according to a past study, it is said bucks pack on 20 percent of their body weight in the few months leading up to the rut. Some good early season food sources to take note of while out scouting include fruits such as muscadines, persimmons and other various wild growing sugar-laden berries. These types of fruit are a delicacy to deer and, to be honest, there is no shortage of muscadines and persimmons this year. Considering the uncanny cool weather we’ve had this summer, there will probably still be some falling to the ground by the time season rolls around. Also, while out and
about, look for white-oak trees laden with acorns. The trees usually don’t start dropping their fruit until the middle of October, but when they do, that’s where you want to be. Deer will come after these tiny morsels before they will anything else. Agricultural fields are always good for early season evening bow hunts. You better seal the deal fairly quick, though. It doesn’t take much pressure for field hunted deer to figure out what’s going on. Creek bottoms with flowing water and seemingly impenetrable cover are good places to hunt regardless of the time of the season. Deer have all they need to survive in one centralized location. And if it’s a big buck you’re after, a creek bot-
tom with the description as mentioned is a likely place to catch him moving to and from bedding and feeding areas. White-tails in early bow season are firmly committed to following routes that connect feeding and bedding areas. By doing some low-impact scouting and identifying available preferred food sources, the odds of getting to fling an arrow tilt dramatically in your favor. (Daily Corinthian columnist and Alcorn County resident David Green is an avid hunter and fisherman in the Crossroads area. Anyone wishing to share their own unique outdoor story or have any news to report pertaining to the outdoors, David can be contacted at dgreen_outdoors@yahoo.com.)
Private James McKinstry of the 42nd Alabama was at the edge of Battery Robinett when a volley was directed at the cluster of Confederates near the wall. “I was still standing just as I was when I fired my last shot, and within a few feet of Col. Rogers, when a Minie ball went crashing through my left hip and turned me half round; another went tearing through my right shoulder, which changed my position to the front; and another ball crushed through my left shoulder, causing me to drop my gun and my left arm to fall limp at my side. I looked and lo! Every one of the fifteen men who were
standing with me were in a heap.� From the 18th Arkansas, Private R.T. Martin, “saw our noble Colonel Rogers, commander of the 2nd Texas, of Moore’s Brigade, fall from his horse a lifeless hero.� One of the most amazing stories, if not the most unlikely, came from the memory of Pvt. T. Arnold of the 35th Mississippi. He wrote of Colonel Rogers, “the impersonation of courage and the spirit of chivalry. He urged his horse to the top of the fort between the silenced guns, and he there emptied his revolver with coolness and precision in the face of the foe.�
Call me skeptical, but for this scenario the colonel’s horse would have had to traverse a 15 foot wide ditch in front of a 10 foot high wall. Take a look at my article on August 18th and read Lt. Charles Labuzan’s account of a soldier who merely raised his head above the wall. Arnold recalled how Rogers realized the attack had failed and, while still in the saddle on top of the wall, asked for the private’s ramrod to tie a white handkerchief on it as a token of surrender. The colonel was killed moments later. To verify his story he mentioned the testimony of, “an old lady who yet lives in
Corinth, but whose name I have forgotten, and who saw both horse and rider fall.� Last of all is the story as recalled by Lieutenant John H. Clay of the 47th Illinois who watched from the high ground alongside Battery Williams. He dismisses the idea that Rogers was either mounted or made it to the top of the fort. “He fell about forty feet from the ditch.� Clay went on to eulogize his fallen foe. “In all my service, covering a period of nearly five years in the front, I never witnessed such matchless bravery as was displayed by Colonel Rogers in leading his men in the charge of
Robinett. Who can blame his people for revering his memory? Plumed knight in chivalric days never won his spurs by deeds more heroic, acts more courageous!� Well said, Comrade Clay. Friday, October 4th will be the 151st anniversary of the attack on Robinett and the death of Colonel Rogers. Come on out for a special program in the morning, on the very ground where he fell, and you can decide for yourself what actually happened.

vicinity of the Tishomingo Hotel at the time and couldn’t even see the front of the battery. All of these accounts have been from Union soldiers and I can point you too at least a dozen more “eye-witness� testimonials which agree on only one fact -- Rogers was killed during the battle. There were Confederate versions of the incident as well, but far fewer in number. Most of the men who saw him die perished alongside him. And no, the existing accounts can’t agree with each other either.

It started with a kiss, a long time ago. Billie Joyce Williams Shaw-Bell and her neighbor friend, Delbert Garner, were both 6 years old when he kissed her on her cheek. “I didn’t even know what a kiss was then, but I knew that I liked it,” Shaw-Bell said. The pair seemed inseparable until four years later, when Garner and his family moved to California. “I cried a lot when they took him away,” ShawBell said. “And then he never wrote me. I’m still mad about that.” “I never thought to get her address,” Garner said. Fast forward more than 70 years, and the childhood sweethearts who were separated at a young age finally got together, marrying in a ceremony this past Saturday afternoon. “We were so glad to get back together,” Shaw-Bell said. After Garner’s family moved, Delbert would occasionally come back to Texas to visit family and check in on Shaw-Bell. “We’d visit, but every time he’d come down, I’d have a boyfriend,” she said. Garner would enlist in the service, serving in World War II before getting discharged in 1945. “He’d come visit, and he was just so beautiful in his uniform,” Shaw-Bell said. “I met a lot of soldiers when I was working, but none were like him.” Garner’s first stop out
of the service was to Texas to visit Shaw-Bell, with the intention of making their relationship official. “I found out from my family that she had married two months before that,” he said. “I was a little devastated.” Shaw-Bell was married to her first husband for 45 years until his passing. Eight years later, she married Junior Bell, a friend of her late husband’s. That marriage lasted 10 years until his death. Garner married his wife in 1950, and the two were together for 62 years. Their marriages produced several children. “We were both happily married,” Shaw-Bell said. “If things hadn’t have happened like they did, we wouldn’t have our children.” The couple’s reunion was set in motion when Shaw-Bell’s daughter, Cheryl, made plans to throw a surprise 85th birthday for her mother earlier this year. Cheryl found Garner’s address in Colorado through an internet search, and she sent him an invitation to the party. “When I got that invitation, I called the number on it,” Garner said. “It was probably no less than 15 minutes after I had opened the invitation.” Garner and Shaw-Bell began spending more time together this year, making the decision to wed a few months ago with the full support of their families.

Voices of the South will present ‘Skin and Bones’ For the Daily Corinthian
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Voices of the South is presenting “Skin and Bones,” written and performed by Elaine Blanchard, Sept. 13, 14, 15, 20, 21 and 22 at TheatreSouth, 1000 S. Cooper. Founded in 1995, Voices of the South is a Memphis-based non-profit theatre company that creates, produces and performs theatre from diverse Southern perspectives. Renowned writer, actress, and storyteller, Elaine Blanchard; previously known to Voices of the South audiences for her autobiographical performance, “For Goodness Sake” and creator of the “Prison Stories” project, is bringing a new chapter in her life story. “Skin and Bones” is an account of her experiences learning to live well with the body
she was given, offering audiences a glimpse into her own struggles with weight, body image, faith, love and family. “Life offers each of us the opportunity to choose; whether to accept what we have been given, how we live with ourselves and others, and whether to trust and care for our own unique personalities,” she explains. (TheatreSouth is located downstairs at First Congregational Church in the Cooper-Young Neighborhood. The entrance is on south side of the building. Performances are at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturdays, Sept. 13, 14, 20 and 21; and at 2 p.m. Sundays, Sept. 15 and 22. Tickets are $21 general admission; and $16 seniors/ students with college ID.

The Simpsons area complete at Universal Orlando BY TAMARA LUSH Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — Walking into Universal Orlando’s new themed area is a bit surreal. First, you hear familiar music. Then you spot the sign: “Greetings from SPRINGFIELD U.S.A.” And then you get a faint whiff of doughnuts. The hometown from the animated TV series “The Simpsons” has been brought to life in a theme park. The full Springfield experience opened to the public in the park in August. Universal has slowly been adding to the area for years, building it around “The Simpsons” ride that opened in 2008. With a new ride — the Kang and Kodos Twirl ‘n’ Hurl — and a food court that includes Moe’s Tavern, the show’s beloved watering hole, the area is now complete. Other attractions found in both the show and the park include the Krustyland carnival area and the Kwik-E-Mart, a convenience store on TV
and a gift shop at Universal. Park designers worked with the show’s creators and writers to build a richly detailed environment where visitors can spend hours eating and snapping selfies in front of a statue of Chief Wiggum and his police car. The goal: to make people feel like they were stepping into the cartoon. “We call it ‘authentic fiction,’” said Ric Florell, Universal’s senior vice president and general manager of resort revenue operations. While most of the details in Springfield mirror the TV show, there are a few tweaked concepts. Take the Twirl ‘n’ Hurl. It’s based on the two aliens on the show, and riders experience a spinning saucer movement while different Simpsons characters crack jokes. It’s a pretty calm ride, appropriate for all but the smallest of children. “There’s been no actual hurling, yet,” laughed Mike West, executive pro-

There’s also a new kiosk where visitors can have their photo taken on a replica of the Simpsons’ family sofa. And while the bold colors, funny signs in the queue of the Twirl ‘n’ Hurl, and brash Krusty the Clown character meetand-greets are fun, the most impressive part is the food. Universal executives said that food is almost another character in the show, and it was a natural to showcase that while telling the Simpsons story in the park. “There’s a lot of food in the TV episodes,” said Florell. “We had to decide, what’s iconic?” Steven Jayson, ex-
ecutive chef at Universal Parks and Resorts, said that it took the better part of a year to create 28 new dishes for the area. All of the menu items can only be found in Springfield, and everything is made from scratch in Universal’s kitchens, he added. Not unexpectedly, given Homer Simpson’s diet on the show, health consciousness hasn’t exactly arrived in Springfield (although there is a nod to Lisa Simpson’s love of salads in “Lisa’s Teahouse of Horror,” a self-serve area where folks can grab hummus, greens and pretzels). The food is mostly concentrated in one building, called Fast Food Boulevard, and the mall-like storefronts are
based on restaurants from the show. There’s the Krusty Burger, named after the cigar-smoking clown. It’s a basic burger, save for the “special sauce” and gooey cheese. For a larger burger, there’s the Clogger Burger, which involves two patties and bacon. Or a self-explanatory Chicken and Waffle Sandwich. Bumblebee Man’s Taco Truck is new, and sells an unexpected option: Korean beef tacos. All of the food is either named after something on the show or something that Bart Simpson could conceivably say in a snarky tone: Chicken Thumbs. Heat Lamp Dog. Meat Liker’s Pizza. One of Homer Simpson’s favorite things — doughnuts — are available in two sizes: regular and huge. A kiosk called Lard Lad Donuts (and several other places within Springfield) sells the supersize, pink-frosted doughnuts in boxes. People sometimes use them as birthday cakes, Univer-
sal executives say. Visitors of all ages can quaff a non-alcoholic treat called a Flaming Moe, which is a citrus-vanilla tasting concoction that bubbles and smokes. But one of the most popular offerings is the beer. Duff Beer, the mainstay of Homer Simpson’s diet, can be found at two locations in the middle of Springfield. One is the Duff Gardens outdoor bar, which overlooks a lagoon and what will eventually be Diagon Alley, part of an upcoming Harry Potter expansion. The other is Moe’s Tavern, a popular photo spot. There are three kinds of Duff Beer — Duff, Duff Light and Duff Dry (which is a dark beer) — all brewed locally. On a recent day, visitors were lined up at Moe’s Tavern and Duff Gardens at 11 a.m., waiting for both to open so they could taste the suds. As Homer once said on the show, “Ah, good ol’ trustworthy beer. My love for you will never die.”
Dropout J.D. Salinger creates mystique at Ursinus College BY KATHY MATHESON Associated Press
COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. — Aspiring novelist Quinn Gilman-Forlini, an ardent admirer of “The Catcher in the Rye,” wouldn’t mind following in its author’s footsteps. In fact, the Ursinus College junior already has: She lived in J.D. Salinger’s cramped old dorm room. “A lot of people say it’s really small, but I just thought it was so charming ... (with) the slanted ceiling and this old radiator,” she said. “People come and knock on your door as a freshman wanting to meet you because you live there.” Jerome David Salinger attended Ursinus for only a single semester in 1938. But his mystique has endured, a legacy now further fueled by Friday’s release of “Salinger,” a film that attempts to shed light on the life of the intensely private man, who died in 2010. A school directory indicates Salinger transferred from New York University to the small liberal arts campus in Collegeville, not far from Philadelphia. As a teen, he had spent time at the nearby Valley Forge Military Academy. At Ursinus, Salinger wrote a feature called “J.D.S.’s The Skipped Diploma” for the student newspaper; most of the columns contained brief, unrelated items from cheeky observations to movie reviews. He also served as a drama critic, using the byline “Jerome Salinger” — and he was tough. “Though undoubtedly guilty of too few rehearsals, the players nevertheless made a courageous attempt at salvaging most of the somewhat feeble (playwright’s) humor,” Salinger wrote of one pro-
duction. He later dropped out, and never earned any degree. Still, the Ursinus admissions office proudly displays a 1963 letter from Salinger that professes he looks back “with a great deal of pleasure” on his time at the school — and then asks the registrar to send a course catalog to his baby sitter. Despite that fondness, the reclusive Salinger denied the use of his name in the scholarship that allows students like Gilman-Forlini to live in his room. After being contacted by the author’s lawyers, the school renamed it the Creative Writing Award. The prize, first given in 2007, goes to writers who display a “quirky brilliance,” unusual perspective or a strong voice— perhaps like that of Holden Caulfield, the rebellious teen narrator of “Catcher.” Winners get $30,000 per year toward the school’s tuition of $44,350. “There’s plenty of scholarships for the brightest and most high-achieving students out there. We’re looking for something a little different,” said English professor Jon Volkmer, who directs the creative writing program and helps choose the winner. The recipient also gets to spend his or her first year in Curtis Hall’s Room 300, a space just big enough for a single bed, desk and narrow dresser. (A plaque outside the doorway mistakenly says Salinger lived there in 1939; officials plan to replace it.) Though there is only one winner each year, Volkmer said the award has helped create a thriving community of writers on the leafy campus, which serves about 1,700 students. But not all of the
recipients are necessarily Salinger fans, or even end up pursuing the craft. Current occupant Annie Rus, an 18-year-old from Parkton, Md., conceded she never finished “Catcher” but is currently enjoying “Franny and Zooey.” She is considering a major in history. Maeve Sutherland, who graduated in 2012, said living in the room encouraged her to write more than she would have. While she said the skill has led to big accomplishments, including an international academic fellowship. “I guess I wouldn’t really call myself a creative writer anymore,” she said. Her dorm experience also coincided with Salinger’s death at his New Hampshire home. “We had a little memorial seance for him,” said Sutherland. “I felt like I was living with a ghost sometimes.” Gilman-Forlini, 19, of Putnam Valley, N.Y., said she misses the third-story room and its view of treelined walkways below — the same landscape that she imagines Salinger looked down on 75 years ago. She’s among many diehard fans eager to see the new documentary. Director Shane Salerno’s decade-long project — which includes a 700-page companion biography — contends that unpublished Salinger material will be released starting in 2015. And though GilmanForlini isn’t sure about her future career, she has already diverged from the path taken by her favorite author just by starting her third year at Ursinus. “I always say that I made it farther than J.D. Salinger did in college,” she said with a laugh. “So if I dropped out, it’d be OK.”
Katy Perry previews new album ‘Prism’ Associated Press
NEW YORK — Katy Perry says although she’s “older and wiser,” she still plans to have fun. Perry debuted 12 songs from her new album, “Prism,” to be released Oct. 22, in front of an audience of 100 industry insiders and journalists Thursday night in New York. The beat-driven album features likable, radio-friendly tracks, much like her multi-hit 2010 effort, “Teenage Dream.” The 28-year-old pop star played songs like the
‘80s-inspired “Birthday,” which she called “something like Mariah Carey would have put on her first album.” She said “Unconditionally” was her favorite song and she was proud to have written it. “Dark Horse,” which features rapper Juicy J, sounds like a Southern rap-techno mashup. Perry’s first single, “Roar,” bumped Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” from the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week. She debuted the music video for the
track Thursday. “I’m very excited to bring visuals to a lot of the songs and play them live,” she said. “Prism” will include 13 tracks; its deluxe version will have 16 songs. The singer was excited and playful at the event, and even cracked a few jokes. She said the album was due at her label on Monday, but not all of the tracks were mixed. “It’s the ‘Prism’ preview. I wanted to show you what my prism can do,” she said to laughs.
