It will be all about the kids this year at the annual fall footrace through downtown Corinth. Racer registration is in full swing for the ninth annual Austin’s Shoes’ Run With Rotary 5K set for Saturday, Oct. 7. Organizers have chosen local special needs children’s charity Havis’ Kids as the event’s 2017 spotlight benefactor. “Over the past three years, the race committee has chosen various charities as our spotlight charities,� said organizer Greg Cooley. “Havis’ Kids has received proceeds from the race in the past, but we felt because of Havis’ current efforts to raise money for his 2018 Disney trip for special needs children in the community, it’s only fitting that we bring the charity back as a the spotlight charity for this year.� Founded by Havis Hurley five years ago, Havis’ Kids helps make dreams

come true for local special needs kids every two years with a trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando. Hurley plans to take around 40 families to Disney World on the next trip scheduled for October 2018. The event’s spotlight charity receives extra support from race proceeds. “We will donate $2 from each race participant’s entry fees to Havis’ Kids,� said Cooley. “This is obviously in addition to the regularly supported charities that the Corinth Rotary Club

supports on a yearly basis.� Proceeds from the annual event will also be used to support the Rotary Club’s Christmas Basket Giveaway and Rotary Student of the Week. Other charities supported by Corinth Rotary are the Lighthouse Foundation, Boys & Girls Club, Project Attention, AMEN Food Pantry and Pine Vale Children’s Home. Rotary also funds endowed scholarships to Northeast Mississippi Community College. Donations were also made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in honor of local teenage cancer survivor Addie Paige Pratt in 2016. Beginning in Corinth’s downtown business district, the race takes participants through the shaded treelined streets of the older residential neighborhoods before concluding at the finish line adjacent to the Fillmore Street Chapel. “The race course is relatively flat Staff photo by Mark Boehler and is USATF certified,� said Cooley.

Lawsuit seeks to end lifetime felon voting ban BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s constitution bars its citizens from voting ever again after being convicted of certain felonies. Now a legal group wants the federal courts to remove what it calls an illegal vestige of white supremacy by striking down most of these restrictions. Attorney Rob McDuff, who filed suit Thursday in Jackson, estimates that more than 50,000 Mississippians have been disqualified from voting since 1994 due to these convictions. About 60 percent are African-American, in a state whose population is 37 percent black. The suit describes the disenfranchising crimes as “an integral part of the overall effort to prevent African-Americans in Mississippi from voting.” “Once you’ve paid your debt to society, I believe you should be allowed to participate again,” said plaintiff Kamal Karriem, a 58-year-old former Columbus

Constitution and allow people to vote free of the legacy of racial discrimination,” McDuff said. Voters removed burglary from the list in 1950, and amended the constitution again in 1968 to add rape and murder. The lawsuit doesn’t challenge using those last two crimes to disqualify people from voting, only the earlier list. Right now, only an act of the Legislature can restore someone’s voting rights. Last year, six such bills, each restoring the rights of a single individual, passed with the required twothirds supermajority in both chambers. Karriem, whose brother is a Democratic House member, said he’s considered seeking such a bill, but calls the process “touch and go.” Broader proposals to restore rights have died without serious consideration in recent years, and Republican Gov. Phil Bryant opposes any such change. “There is a price to pay for

city councilman who pleaded guilty to embezzlement in 2005 after being charged with stealing a city cellphone. “I don’t think it should be held against you for the rest of your life.” The initial list of crimes justifying a lifetime voting ban in the 1890 Mississippi Constitution, the result of a process meant to taking the vote away from black people, included embezzlement, forgery, bribery, burglary, theft, arson, perjury, bigamy and obtaining money or property through false pretense. Today, that last crime can involve writing a bad check for as little as $100. The suit notes that the same constitution adopted restrictive poll taxes, literacy requirements and residency requirements to disenfranchise people. Most of those have been struck down, removed or weakened over the ensuing 125 years. “It’s important that we remove this vestige of white supremacy from the Mississippi

violating the laws of the state of Mississippi, particularly a felony,” Bryant said this month. “And one of them is that you lose your right to vote unless it is restored by the Mississippi Legislature.... I wouldn’t want to change it.” Bryant refuses to sign bills restoring the voting rights of individuals, although he lets them become law without his signature. Mississippi is one of 10 states that permanently revoke voting rights for people convicted of some or all felonies, according to the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University. Besides Karriem, plaintiffs include Roy Harness, an Army veteran convicted of forgery in 1986 and now studying social work in Jackson after recovering from drug addiction; and Gabrielle Jones of Jackson, convicted of forgery in 2009 and receiving stolen property in 2013. The Mississippi Center for

Justice is supporting the suit with a $2 million grant over 10 years from Apple Inc. and the Emerson Collective, an organization led by Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of late Apple CEO Steve Jobs. The suit faces an immediate hurdle. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 1998 rejected a lawsuit from a state prison inmate challenging the constitutionality of the list. Those judges said the original provision had racist intent, but found the two later amendments had removed the “discriminatory taint associated with the original version.” McDuff, though, argues that the court was wrong on the facts, because voters in 1950 and 1968 didn’t have the chance to amend the whole text. He also argues that Mississippi was still dominated by racist politicians and voters back then. “The outcome of this case is not governed by that court decision,” the new complaint states.

BATTLE visitors will be able to see and hear how multiple cannon worked and fired together as a unit. “There will be four pieces of artillery on the field scheduled for demonstration. The program will consist of live fire, no projectiles, just noise and smoke,” said Parson. The ranger went on to explain there would be information provided on specifications and what range they would fire and how to load, unload and fire the weapons. He said the weapons would be fired four different ways, individually, then by section and finally by battery, where all will be fired. n Noon — ­ Infantry re-enactors will perform tactical demonstrations, which will include weapons firings as a unit. Information on the uniforms and equipment of the common infantry soldier will also be presented. “They [infantry re-enactors] will go out and show us what it was like to engage the enemy out on the field,” said Parson. n 1 p.m. — The Texas Camel Corps will present a program about the use of camels in the U.S. military and the story of Old Douglas, a camel who carried the band instruments for the 43rd Mississippi Infantry at Corinth, and was later killed at Vicksburg. Camel programs will also be offered on Sunday. This is presented by Doug Baum of the Texas Camel Corps, said Parson. n 2 p.m. — A 30-minute music program featuring period songs will be presented by the Civil War string band “Lost Cause.” Parson added that the well-known local band will have some of their CDs available for purchase. n 2:30 pm — A combined arms demonstra-

tion will be presented featuring all three branches: infantry, cavalry, and artillery, working together in the field. A narration will describe how the three branches would participate in a pitched battle as the combined branches conduct weapons firings. “It is exciting when you see the big finale with infantry, cavalry and artillery together on the field and see how those arms working together would be used to fight a battle. It’s educational and entertaining ... and smelling the black powder on the field and hearing the sounds, you can get a small impression of what it was like,” said Parson. The ranger pointed out that the Battle of Corinth was the largest battle in the state of Mississippi. He said many people believe that it was Vicksburg, but he explained Vicksburg was a siege and not a battle. “The Battle of Corinth was so well-documented and we know so much about what happened here. It’s our history. It’s under our houses, it’s the streets and it’s everywhere we walk downtown,” said Parson. The entire living history event is free and open to the public. Each program will last approximately 30 minutes. Visitors are encouraged to bring water and insect spray, and to wear appropriate clothing and footwear for the weather conditions. Rain or severe weather will cancel the demonstrations.

WTVA-TV reports former Ecru clerk Gretchin Moody and former Ecru police chief Paul Blaylock entered the pleas Tuesday. Officials say the two used much of the money to buy more than 75 guns for themselves. Moody faces three counts of embezzlement, while Blaylock faces one count of fraud. The indictment says Moody stole court fines and payroll money and abused the 900-resident town’s credit card. Blaylock is accused of getting fraudulent overtime payments from state money, plus bilking the town for additional unearned overtime. State Auditor Stacey Pickering demands Moody repay $333,000 and Blaylock repay $59,000. Those amounts include interest and investigation charges. Both remain free on bail.

AG to promote domestic violence awareness

String of sexual assaults reported on campus

TUPELO — Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood will kick off Domestic Violence Awareness Month next week in Tupelo, reported the Daily Journal. Hood, a Chickasaw County native, will be the guest speaker Oct. 3 at the Family Resource Center in downtown Tupelo. The center provides counseling, weekly support groups, and case management for the intervention and treatment of victims of domestic violence. “October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month,” said FRC domestic violence coordinator Dell Hatch. “We are trying to bring awareness to the issue that has an effect on almost everyone. It is estimated that one in three women has been a victim of domestic violence and one in four men have been a victim of physical assault.” In August, a Booneville man was charged with capital murder in the kidnapping and death of his estranged wife. Law enforcement is still looking for Adrian Golden, who is accused of shooting his wife while driving down the road, then trying to run over her when she jumped out of the vehicle. The incident happened in broad daylight in the middle of Bruce on June 1. The kickoff event will be held next Tuesday at 10 a.m. at 425 Magazine St. It is open to the public and refreshments will be served. On that day, guests are encouraged to wear purple in honor of the victims. “We are also bringing light to the local agencies that provide safe outlets to those affected by domestic violence,” Hatch said. “We’ll have someone here from S.A.F.E. Inc., the only women’s shelter in the region, to talk about the resources that are available for victims.” Hatch said there are also plans for other events throughout October, including a Purple Thursday on Oct. 19 and a Domestic Violence Silent Walk at city hall on Oct. 20.

OXFORD — School officials are working harder to make sure students are safe after five sexual assaults were reported in less than a month on the University of Mississippi campus, reported the Daily Journal. Between Aug. 27 and Sept. 25, there were five reports of sexual battery on campus. Two of the reports occurred at residence dormitories – Brown and Crosby halls. The other reports were at fraternity houses – Kappa Sigma and Alpha Tau Omega. Charges in the fifth incident, Sept. 8 at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, were downgraded and are now being investigated as disturbing the peace. According to the University Police Department, a person of interest was interviewed in connection with the Sept. 15 incident at the Kappa Sigma house but no one has been arrested or charged in connection with these incidents. Five sexual battery reports in four weeks is an increase from 2016. During the same time span, only two sexual battery incidents were reported, according to the UPD website. One of those reports was determined later to be unfounded.

Man sexually assaults woman after break-up COLUMBUS — ­ A Caledonia man is charged with sexual battery by deputies who say he forced a woman to have sex after she told him she wanted to end their relationship. Lowndes County Sheriff’s Department investigors said Brian Heinz, 36, met the woman in a grocery store parking lot earlier this month. The woman told him of her decision and he forced her into a car and told her to drive.

No conspiracy on Jackson schools There are legitimate arguments to be made against the state taking over Jackson Public Schools, the most obvious being that state takeovers have, at best, a marginal record of success. One argument that is completely illegitimate, however, is that this is some grand conspiracy by the state. Granted, state officials, particularly in the Legislature, have raised suspicions with their oversight approach to the one-cent sales tax commission and the Capitol Complex Improvement District. However, one could also argue that years of indecision by city leaders led to the infrastructure woes these two plans were created to address, so some state oversight is not an unrealistic request. The most onerous and obvious power grab was the Legislature changing the law dictating how airports are governed. This was clearly a ploy by certain state leaders to gain control of the Jackson Municipal Airport Authority, which — despite erroneous statements by some lawmakers — has been operating in the black and has no significant management issues. The city of Jackson wholly paid for the development of the airport, and neither the state nor surrounding counties have any legitimate claim to it. Nevertheless, lawmakers took what they wanted. Hopefully the Federal Aviation Administration eventually will rule that the state acted improperly. Until that time, the city continues to have control of the airport, and the JMAA board continues to run a solid operation. That situation, however, is much different than what has happened with JPS. In fact, all indications — both public and private — have been that the Mississippi Department of Education and other state leaders were loath to take over the district. Such an undertaking will be exhaustive and cost millions of additional state dollars. More importantly, the facts simply do not support a conspiracy. The state could have made a takeover push last year when a limited audit of 22 of the district’s 58 schools found “severe deficiencies related to school safety and instructional practices.” Among those findings were teachers without proper licenses, out-ofdate school board policies, seniors allowed to graduate who did not meet graduation requirements and improper or inadequate classroom instruction. The truth, however, is far less nefarious. State officials have openly acknowledged that taking over JPS would be a monumental task. However, if it came to that, MDE would have been irresponsible had they not been prepared ahead of time. They wisely started talking to Pulley and at least one other current public school superintendent about the position. MDE officials also have started preliminary budget estimates in the event a takeover came to fruition. That’s just smart planning. Think of the alternative. If MDE did not have a superintendent in place, JPS would essentially be rudderless for several weeks in the event that Gov. Phil Bryant declares the state of emergency required for a takeover, as he is expected to do. Such lack of planning would have been honest grounds for criticism. No, the state model of assuming control of local school districts is not perfect, but the JPS school board and district leadership have had ample opportunity to make meaningful progress yet have failed to do so. Yes, some progress in some areas has been made, but it’s not enough progress in enough areas. And in some areas, such as special education, JPS actually has lost ground. So whatever criticisms one may have over the way this was handled, two things should be obvious to any honest observer. First, JPS has serious issues that are detrimental to the education of the approximately 27,000 students it serves. And second, the idea of this being part of a conspiracy is ludicrous. Such an argument seems more about stirring public outcry than seeking better schools for our children. The Clarion-Ledger

Collins irresponsibly blocks health reform With Maine Senator Susan Collins announcing her opposition to the GrahamCassidy bill to reform Obamacare, she has slammed the door on this latest Republican effort to address our health care crisis. I’m just able to muster up one word to capture my sense of Senator Collins: Irresponsible. Collins expressed her concern that the bill would “open the door for states to weaken protection for people with pre-existing conditions...” What insight does Collins thinks she has that the 48 Republican Senators who support the bill don’t grasp? Graham-Cassidy does give flexibility to states to seek a waiver on the federal requirement to cover preexisting conditions. However, to achieve the waiver, states must demonstrate they have another approach for dealing with the problem. The current situation simply causes damage to everyone. By forcing insurance companies to provide products that don’t work economically, the companies have to either raise rates -which is what is happening -- or withdraw from markets -- which is also happening.

GrahamCassidy takes a difficult situation and says, “It’s clear we’re Star not going to Parker solve it in Washington, Columnist so let’s turn it over to states and let each state deal locally with its challenges.” This is indeed what America is about. This is what the founders of the USA wrote into our constitution. A limited federal government, and the rest left to the states. And they were right! But liberals, like Susan Collins, have upset the apple cart over the years and now we have a mess in Washington. Collins should celebrate that Graham-Cassidy allows her to work with citizens in her own state with great latitude to solve these difficult problems locally. But like most liberals, instead of concluding that things are not working because the federal government is too big, she concludes it’s not big enough. Senator Lindsey Graham summed up the current situation with precision when he said that his main con-

cern is that “Obamacare is a placeholder for Berniecare.” “Berniecare” is, of course, the national single-payer government health care that Senator Sanders is pushing for. Barack Obama was clear that that’s also what he wanted. But seeing that he couldn’t get it, he opted for getting it through the back door by way of the Affordable Care Act. With its vast array of regulations and taxes coupled with the huge expansion of Medicaid, Obamacare has been a major step toward a single-payer government system. Medicaid, which is a single-payer system for low-income Americans, now covers 73.5 million Americans, up from 47.7 million in 2008. Medicaid together with Medicare now has almost 40 percent of all Americans on government single-payer health care. Graham-Cassidy is far from the ideal health care bill Republicans wanted to replace Obamacare. The problem is that once the nation gets put on welfare, once people get used to handouts, it is enormously difficult to change. At least Graham-Cassidy turns things around in a serious way. Block granting

Medicaid, turning management of this program to local control at the state level, is a huge and important reform. The U.S. Government Accountability Office has estimated that Medicaid fraud is as high as 10 percent of total Medicaid expenditures. That puts Medicaid fraud at about $55 billion per year. That’s about equal to the size of the whole state economy of Collins’ Maine. Local management could vastly improve this horrific situation. Maybe what’s really gnawing at Collins is that the bill pulls taxpayer funds from Planned Parenthood, the nation’s No. 1 abortion provider, which she loves so much. Graham-Cassidy is a noble effort to improve our health care system, given tough existing political realities. Senator Collins, like Senators John McCain and Rand Paul who said “no” before, is just leading us to socialism. Without a change of heart, she hurts her party, her state and her country.

Will the NFL demand respect for Old Glory? “America refuses to address the pervasive evil of white cops killing black men, and I will not stand during a national anthem that honors the flag of such a country!” That is the message Colin Kaepernick sent by “taking a knee” during the singing of “The Star Spangled Banner” before San Francisco ‘49s games in 2016. No NFL owner picked up his contract in 2017. But a few players began to copy Colin and to “take a knee.” Friday night in Alabama, President Trump raged that any NFL player who disrespects Old Glory is an “expletive” who ought to be kicked off the field and fired by his team’s owner. And if the owners refuse to do their patriotic duty, the fans should take a walk on the NFL. And so the stage was set for NFL Sunday. Two hundred players, almost all black, knelt or sat during the national anthem. The Patriots’ Tom Brady stood in respect for the flag, while locking arms in solidarity with kneeling teammates. The Pittsburgh Steelers coach kept his team in the locker room. Steeler Alejandro Villanueva, an ex-Army

Ranger and combat vet, came out and stood alone on the field. For NFL Patrick p l a y e r s , Buchanan c o a c h e s , commentaColumnist tors, owners and fans, it was an uncomfortable and sad day. And it is not going to get any better. Sundays with the NFL, as a day of family and friends, rest and respite from the name-calling nastiness of American politics, is over. The culture war has come to the NFL. And Trump will be proven right. Having most players stand respectfully during the national anthem, while locking arms with other players sitting or kneeling in disrespect of the flag, is a practice the NFL cannot sustain. The mega-millionaire and billionaire owners of NFL franchises are going to have to come down off the fence and take a stand. The issue is not the First Amendment. It is not whether players have a right to air their views about what cops did to Michael Brown in Ferguson, or Eric Garner in Staten Island, or Freddie

Gray in Baltimore. Players have a right to speak, march in protest, or even burn the flag. The question NFL owners are going to have to answer soon with a definitive “yes” or “no” is this: Do players, before games, have a right, as a form of protest, to dishonor and disrespect the flag of the United States and the republic for which it stands? Or is that intolerable conduct that the NFL will punish? Trump is taking a beating from owners, players and press for being “divisive.” But he did not start this fight. Kaepernick did, and the players who emulated him, and the coaches and owners who refuse to declare whether insulting the flag is now permissible behavior in the NFL. As Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said Sunday, team owners and Commissioner Roger Goodell have strict rules for NFL games. No NASCAR-type ads on uniforms. Restrictions on end-zone dances. All shirttails tucked in. Certain behavior on the field can call forth 15-yard penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct, or even expulsion from the game. Our Supreme Court has

denied coaches of public high school teams the right to gather players for voluntary prayer before games. Why not an NFL rule requiring players to stand during the national anthem, and, if they refuse, suspend them from play for that day? Sunday’s game exposed a clash of loyalties in the hearts of NFL players. Do black players stand in solidarity with Kaepernick? Do white players stand beside black teammates, if that means standing with them as they disrespect the flag under which hundreds of thousands of our soldiers have died? This conflict in loyalties mirrors that of our country, as America divides and our society disintegrates over issues of morality, patriotism, race and culture. In terms of fame and fortune, no professions have proven more rewarding for young black American males than the NFL and the NBA. Whether they soil their nest is, in the last analysis, up to them.

Pickwick Landing State Park opens new aviary BY CAROL HUMPHREYS For the Daily Corinthian

PICKWICK, Tenn. — A state park known for its abundance of water birds and songbirds has now become a sanctuary for birds of prey. Due to the hard work of park staff and the generosity of the Friends of Pickwick Landing State Park, the park now has living space for these fascinating large birds. Pickwick Landing State Park is having a grand opening to celebrate its new aviaries on Saturday, Sept. 30. The special occasion will include a ribbon cutting at noon followed by a birds of prey program at 12:30 p.m. to introduce park visitors to two of its newest residents, “Buddy” and “Lieutenant Dan.” Afterwards, volunteers are invited to help with park maintenance by removing invasive plant species near the new aviaries. The volunteer event is in recognition of National Public Lands Day. The new double-sided aviary provides two areas to hold birds of prey that are “non-releasable.” The birds have either been injured or “imprinted” by becoming too accustomed to being around humans. Buddy is a redtailed hawk injured near Reelfoot Lake State Park while Lieutenant Dan, another red-tailed hawk, was found injured near the Jackson area. “The birds come from all over the state,” said Brittney Magness, project coordinator. “We acquire them from wildlife rehabilitators after being cared for by a veterinarian. If the bird can’t go back to the wild due to its injury, then they are rehomed to places like the park.” The park ranger said the state park is planning on providing a home for more injured birds.

The new doublesided aviary provides two areas to hold birds of prey that are “nonreleasable.” It is currently awaiting on approval and transfer paperwork for a third red-tailed hawk, a great horned owl, a turkey vulture and a kestrel falcon. Magness, who coordinates programs for the park, said park rangers and seasonal interpreters often showcase the birds by taking them offsite. The beautiful, imposing birds are a popular attraction at festivals and other events, and the star attraction at birds of prey programs presented at the park inn. Hired as a park ranger at the state park in December 2015, Magness, 24, began her official position in December 2016 after graduating from the Tennessee Law Enforcement Training Academy. She had previously worked as a seasonal interpreter at Reelfoot Lake State Park where she had extensive experience with birds of prey. “When I got hired as a park ranger at Pickwick, caring for birds of prey was something I was passionate about,” said the wildlife enthusiast. “My co-workers, the park manager and the Friends of Pickwick all supported my idea of building an aviary for the birds.” The “Friends” mission is to make Pickwick Landing one of Tennessee’s premier state parks. The civic group began securing funds and received several sizable donations that went toward the avi-

Dan.” ary’s construction. Lowe’s in Savannah also helped by allowing materials be bought at reduced pricing. Construction on the bird sanctuary began in mid-February. The structure was built by Magness’ father-in-law, Keith Magness, who volunteered to help build the aviary. Park Manager Mike Dobis, Magness’ husband, Cody, the park’s maintenance crew and her also contributed to the overall construction. “It was definitely a joint effort,” she said. Aviaries often contain plants and shrubbery to simulate a natural environment and in June Tennessee Promise scholars came to help on Tennessee Promise Day. Doing volunteer work at the park is a way high school students can log commu-

Education agency denies auditor’s claim JACKSON — Mississippi’s state auditor said he continues investigating contracts by the state Department of Education. Auditor Stacey Pickering on Thursday released reports on consulting contracts, as well as afterschool grant problems that forced the department to repay $11.7 million in federal funds. The Republican said the department illegally created an alternate method to pick contractors, and may have illegally split contracts to evade a $100,000 threshold for bids. Department Chief Operating Officer Felicia Gavin denies the department broke any laws. She says the contracting method was approved in 2009 and says contracts were allowable because they were for different kinds of work.

Sheriff: Man robbed good Samaritan BILOXI — Authorities said a homeless man robbed a good Samaritan at knifepoint before kidnapping the victim and leaving him tied up in a Mississippi hotel room.

News outlets reported that 45-year-old Ernest Eugene Leffew was arrested Monday and charged with kidnapping and armed robbery. Investigators said Leffew asked the victim for a ride, took the man’s wallet and reportedly forced him to drive to several ATMs to withdraw money. Authorities sayid he then tied the man up in a wooded area, later untied him, and forced him to drive to a hotel room. Harrison County Sheriff Troy Peterson said Leffew tied the victim up again in the hotel room and fled in the man’s vehicle. The victim escaped hours later and called for help.

U.S. chief justice hears moot case JACKSON — The chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court interrupted with questions several times Wednesday as four

Mississippi law students argued a practice case before him and other federal and state judges. In the Mississippi Supreme Court chamber, the judges listened to about an hour of arguments in a moot court case about corporate negligence. When the judges left the room to evaluate the case, the audience of other judges, lawyers, law school teachers and fellow students applauded. Back in the courtroom a short time later, Roberts said the students argued well under pressure. The chief justice said he lost his first moot court case when he was a law student at Harvard. The judges decided that the team from the University of Mississippi, James Kelly and Meredith Pohl, prevailed by a narrow margin over the team from Mississippi College, Patrick Fields and Lindsay Roberts.

nity service hours needed to meet college scholarship requirements. “They did a lot of great work for us, including most of the landscaping around the aviary,” said Magness. “There wasn’t anything around the structure but grass. Volunteers tore up old landscaping timber and laid fresh edging, filled in mulch and rock, and planted new plants. They did an awesome job.” Volunteers have another opportunity to help beautify the park on National Public Lands Day, which is celebrated on Sept. 30 to promote both enjoyment and conservation of public lands. Everyone can come to the park that day, enjoy the outdoors and give back to the community. Volunteers can help park staff remove invasive

plants from around the area near the aviaries. Non-volunteers are also invited to just come and enjoy the celebration and the park’s beautiful surroundings. People can make donations which will go directly to materials for the birds, bird handling and their food. Donations can be monetary made through the Friends of Pickwick website or put into donation boxes at the park. Magness said donations like deer, duck or squirrel meat would also be appreciated. “Hunters can drop off scrap meat after they’ve cleaned their game,” said Magness, an avid hunter. “The birds will love it and it will save us money and give the birds a variety of food sources.” The park ranger said about 25 people have

signed up for National Public Lands Day so far. Those who do decide to help with the volunteer activity from 1-3 p.m. that day are asked to wear appropriate clothing such as closed-toe shoes and work gloves if they have them. Everyone will meet at the park office/ visitor center. (To register online for the event on Saturday, visit the Tennessee State Parks’ website and go to Pickwick Landing State Park’s upcoming events. A head count is needed to ensure enough tools for everybody, so please email Magness at Brittney.smith@tn.gov if you plan to stay and volunteer. For more information, call the park office at 731-689-3129 or Magness at 731-3430012.)

Money now running out in Puerto Rico BY BEN FOX AND DANICA COTO Associated Press

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — First, Hurricane Maria knocked out power and water to Puerto Rico. Then diesel fuel, gas and water became scarce. Now, it’s money. The aftermath of the powerful storm has resulted in a near-total shutdown of the U.S. territory’s economy that could last for weeks and has many people running seriously low on cash and worrying that it will become even harder to survive on this stormravaged island. There are long lines at the banks that are open with reduced hours or the scattered ATMs that are operational amid an islandwide power outage and near total loss of telecommunications. Many people are unable

Rico and flights off the island are down to only a few each day. While Cortes is OK for the moment, others don’t have nearly the same resources. Cruzita Mojica is an employee of the Puerto Rico Treasury Department in San Juan. While she, like many public sector workers, has been called back to work she can’t go because she has to care for her elderly mother in the aftermath of the storm. She got up at 3:30 a.m. Wednesday and went to four ATM machines only to find each one empty. “Of course I took out money before the hurricane, but it’s gone already,� she said. “We’re without gasoline. Without money. Without food. This is a disaster.� Surgical technician Dilma Gonzalez said she

Engineer Octavio Cortes predicts it will only get worse because so many of the problems are inter-connected and cannot be easily resolved. “I don’t know how much worse it’s going to get,� Cortes said as he joined other motorists stopping on a bridge over a river in northern Puerto Rico to catch a faint cellphone signal. “Right now it’s manageable, but I don’t know about next week or after that.� The father of six typically works from home or travels around the world for his job, but neither approach is possible now because the power is still out for nearly all 3.4 million people in Puerto

had only $40 left and her job hasn’t called people back to work yet in the capital. “Until they let us know otherwise, I’m not supposed to go back,� she said with a shrug as she pressure washed the street in front of her house, sending muddy debris flying. All are struggling with the overwhelming devastation of Hurricane Maria, which began tearing across the island early in the morning of Sept. 20 as a Category 4 storm with winds of 155 mph. It destroyed the entire electricity grid while grinding up homes, businesses, roads and farms. At least 16 people were killed. There still is no exact tally of the cost and full extent of the damage, but Gov. Ricardo Rossello says it will bring a complete halt to the economy for at least a month. “This is the single big-

gest, major catastrophe in the history of Puerto Rico, bar none, and it is probably the biggest hurricane catastrophe in the United States,� Rossello said Wednesday as he delivered aid to the southern town of Salinas, whose mayor says 100 percent of the agriculture there was wiped out when the wind tore up plantain, corn, vegetables and other crops. On Thursday the Trump administration announced it was waiving the Jones Act, a little-known federal law that prohibits foreignflagged ships from shuttling goods between U.S. ports, for Puerto Rico. Republicans and Democrats have pushed for the move, saying it could help get desperately needed supplies to the island more quickly and at less cost.

Puerto Ricans say U.S. relief efforts failing them Associated Press

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — The Trump administration declared Thursday that its relief efforts in Puerto Rico are succeeding, but people on the island said help was scarce and disorganized while food supplies dwindled in some remote towns eight days after Hurricane Maria devastated the U.S. territory of 3.4 million people.

President Donald Trump cleared the way for more supplies to head to Puerto Rico by issuing a 10-day waiver of federal restrictions on foreign ships delivering cargo to the island. And House Speaker Paul Ryan said the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s disaster relief account would get a $6.7 billion boost by the end of the week.

Acting Homeland Security Secretary Elaine Duke declared that “the relief effort is under control.� “It is really a good news story, in terms of our ability to reach people,� she told reporters in the White House driveway. Outside the capital, San Juan, people said that was far from the truth. “I have not received

Senators question nuke program defense Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A senior State Department official acknowledged Thursday that U.S. intelligence agencies don’t believe North Korea will ever pull the plug on its nuclear program, raising concerns among lawmakers over the Trump administration’s strategy for bringing a mounting crisis to a peaceful close. Susan Thornton, the acting assistant secretary of state for East Asia and the Pacific, said her de-

partment and other federal agencies are “testing� the conclusion reached by the intelligence agencies. The administration, she told members of the Senate Banking Committee, is ratcheting up “international isolation and pressure� on North Korea, with essential help from China, which she called Pyongyang’s “leading enabler.� Sen. Bob Corker, RTenn., said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un views nuclear weapons as

“his ticket to survival� and there’s virtually nothing to make him turn back. Corker, who also chairs the Foreign Relations Committee, asked Thornton and Sigal Mandelker, the undersecretary of Treasury for terrorism and financial intelligence, what steps could quickly steer North Korea from being able to fire missiles at the United States. “We’re trying to turn China’s position from looking at North Korea as some kind of asset, to looking at them as a liability,� Thornton said.

They stood in line in a parking lot in the town of Bayamon near the hardhit northern coast, where local police used hoses to fill up containers from a

city water truck. “I have not seen any federal help around here,� said Javier San Miguel, a 51-year-old accountant. Trump tweeted later: “FEMA & First Responders are doing a GREAT job in Puerto Rico.� He also took issue with media coverage of the administration’s response, writing: “Wish press would treat fairly!�

Deaths David Anderson

WALNUT — Funeral services for David Lynn Anderson, 48, are set for 2 p.m. Friday at Soul’s Harbor Apostolic Church. Burial will follow at New Hope Methodist Cemetery near Ripley. Visitation will continue Friday until service time at the church. Mr. Anderson died Tuesday, Sept. 26, 2017, at the Magnolia Regional Health Center in Corinth following a brief illness. He was born July 12, 1969, in Tippah County. He was the son of Arlen Anderson (Loretta) of Baldwyn and the late Janna Hall Anderson. At an early age, he moved with his family to Denton, Texas, where he received his education in the Denton Public School System. He returned to his native Tippah County 27 years ago and was employed as a heavy equipment operator with various construction companies in the area. He was of the Christian faith. He is also survived by his daughters, Ashely Brooks (Drew) and Dezaray Hawkins (Cannon), both of Walnut, two brothers, Arlen “Reece� Anderson of Alpine and James Anderson (Tammy) of Booneville and six grandchildren, Cheyenne, Jasmine (Taco), Leah, Paige, Alie and Jake. Mr. Anderson’s uncle, Bro. Donald Roberson, will officiate the service. Ripley Funeral Home has the arrangements.

Cheers, tears, hugs greet Scalise Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Greeted by hugs, tears and a roaring standing ovation, a hobbling Majority Whip Steve Scalise returned to the House on Thursday, more than three months after a gunman sprayed fire at a baseball practice and left the lawmaker clinging to life. “You have no idea how great this feels to be back here at work in the people’s house,� the 51-yearold Louisiana Republican said to a chamber packed with lawmakers,

including senators who had crossed the Capitol to welcome him back. Scalise limped into the chamber on crutches, wearing sneakers, smiling broadly and blowing kisses in his first public appearance since the June 14 shooting. “Our prayers have been answered,� declared Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis. The moment marked a joyfully bipartisan departure from the bitter divisions that have dominated Congress this year between two parties

battling over President Donald Trump and the GOP agenda. “It does show the warm side of Congress that very few people get to see,� Scalise said. Scalise and four others were wounded when a gunman opened fire on a Republican baseball practice — GOP and Democratic lawmakers face off in a game each year — in nearby Alexandria, Virginia. U.S. Capitol Police and other officers returned fire and killed the gunman.

Arrest made in 1990 killer-clown case WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — On a May morning in 1990, Marlene Warren answered her front door in an upscale Florida suburb to find a clown in an orange wig, red nose and white face paint handing her carnations and foil balloons. “How pretty!” she exclaimed. The clown then pulled a gun, shot Warren in the face and drove away. She died two days later. Now, almost three decades later, authorities say they have arrested the clown: a woman who was said to be having an affair with Warren’s husband and, years after the killing, married him. Detectives said advances in DNA technology, combined with evidence gathered decades ago, show Sheila Keen Warren, now 54, was the killer. At the time of the shooting, she was an employee of Marlene Warren’s husband, Michael, at his used car lot. Since 2002, she has been his wife. She was arrested Tuesday at the home she shared with him in Abingdon, Virginia, and was jailed without bail to await transfer to Florida on firstdegree murder charges. Michael Warren, 65, has not been charged, but detectives refused to rule him out as a suspect and said he was interviewed again Wednesday.

Rauner: Medicaid allowed for abortions CHICAGO — Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner said Thursday that he’ll sign legislation allowing state health insurance and Medicaid coverage for abortions, ending months of speculation after the Republican reversed his stance on the issue last spring. The General Assembly controlled by Democrats approved the measure in May but delayed sending it to Rauner until Monday, in part because he has changed his mind about support of the plan. As a candidate in 2014, Rauner said he would support expanding coverage for abortions. But last April he said he opposed the idea and said the state should focus on improving the economy. The proposal would allow abortions funded by state employee health

insurance and Medicaid. Democrats argue all women should have the same access to abortion services. Republicans argued taxpayers should not be forced to fund a morally objectionable procedure, particularly during a state budget crisis. The Department of Healthcare and Family Services estimates the annual taxpayer cost of abortions under the measure would be $1.8 million. The decision has been politically difficult for Rauner, who’s considered one of the most vulnerable governors nationwide in his 2018 bid for a second term. The former venture capitalist first won elected office in 2014, in part by getting support from independent voters in the suburbs, especially women, with his pledge to have “no social agenda.” He often campaigned with his wife, Diana Rauner, who calls herself a “lifelong Democrat.”

Police: Girlfriend’s dad charged in death One of two men who have been charged in the beating death of a hogtied Oklahoma man is the father of the victim’s girlfriend, who told detectives she asked them to beat up her boyfriend because he had been abusing her, police said Thursday. The body of Anthony Pietrzak, 18, was found at around 2 a.m. Thursday just outside of Tulsa’s city limits and about 3 miles (5 kilometers) from his and his girlfriend’s home. An anonymous caller told police on Tuesday that a man known only as Anthony had been beaten to death and dismembered. Sgt. Dave Walker, the head of the department’s homicide division, said in a news release that a witness told detectives of seeing a man being beaten, hogtied and thrown into the back of a pickup truck outside the victim’s home in north Tulsa. Walker did not reply to a phone message seeking further details, but Officer Jeanne MacKenzie told The Associated Press that Pietrzak wasn’t dismembered, but that he was hogtied when they found his body, with his hands and feet tied together. “It’s very horrific,” MacKenzie said. “Just beating someone to

death, there’s no other way to describe it.” Dearld Peal, 46, and Tracy Price, 40, were arrested Wednesday on kidnapping charges, and first-degree murder charges were added against each man after the body was found. Jail records show each man is in custody and do not list an attorney for either of them. They are due in court next Wednesday.

Yosemite rock fall is biggest in memory Longtime climbers of Yosemite National Park said Thursday they’ve never seen a rock fall like the one “the size of an apartment building” that plunged down the vertical face of El Capitan, killing a British climber and seriously injuring his British climbing partner. “I’ve seen smaller avalanches and smaller falls before where you would just see a tiny dust cloud, this was covering a good portion of the rock in front of us,” said John DeGrazio of YExplore Yosemite Adventures, who has led climbers in Yosemite Park for 12 years. The victims were hiking at the bottom of the iconic El Capitan in preparation to scale it when the granite chunk fell Wednesday afternoon, said park ranger and spokesman Scott Gediman. It was about 130 feet tall and 65 feet wide and appeared to fall from the popular “Waterfall Route” on the East Buttress of El Capitan, Gediman said. The victims were not identified because officials were notifying their relatives. DeGrazio said he had just guided a group to the top of the Half Dome rock formation a few miles (kilometers) when they looked across to El Capitan and saw large clouds of rock dust rising into the air. At least 30 climbers were on the wall of the 7,569-foot monolith when the huge hunk of rock fell. “It was more significant than anything I’ve seen before,” DeGrazio said. Climbers are aware of the risks of the sport and that granite erosion takes place on El Capitan and other peaks in the Sierra Nevada mountain range, he said. They posted pictures on social media showing billowing white dust moments after the crash.

Funeral home owner arrested in insurance fraud inquiry JACKSON — A Mississippi funeral home owner has been arrested for failing to forward premiums to a life insurance company. Attorney General Jim Hood said 42-year-old Kimredell Dotson faces four counts of committing false pretense. He surrendered to Choctaw County authorities following a grand jury indictment for defrauding his customers in an amount greater than $500 in four separate instances between 2010 and 2013. Hood, in a news release Tuesday, said Dotson owns a business in McCool. He says Dotson made false representations to his customers that he was forwarding their premiums to an insurance company but never actually turned them in. The scheme was discovered as part of an investigation by the Secretary of State’s Office and the Mississippi Insurance Department. If convicted, Dotson faces up to 40 years in prison.

Louisiana man indicted in killing of state man BOGALUSA, La. — A Louisiana man was charged with killing one man from Mississippi, and trying to kill two others. District Attorney Warren Montgomery said in a news release Wednesday that a Washington Parish grand jury indicted 31-year-old Brandon Odell Lotts of Bogalusa on Tuesday, on charges of second-degree murder, attempted murder and possessing drugs. He’s accused of killing 21-yearold Trevante Toney of Lumberton on Sept. 29, 2015, and trying to kill Thelonious Williams and Charles Jenkins, also of Lumberton, during the same incident. WDAM-TV reported in October 2015 that Williams and Jenkins had been arrested on charges accusing them of trying to kill Lotts. Montgomery’s office did not immediately respond to queries about whether those charges still stand, and whether Lotts has an attorney who could speak for him.

Man arrested for bomb threat at Jackson State JACKSON — A Tennessee man turned himself in for making a bomb threat against a Mississippi university. Jackson State University officials said Christopher Ashleigh Jones turned himself in to university police on Wednesday. Officials told WJTV-TV that the 20-year-old is a Memphis, Tennessee, resident who has a girlfriend who attends the university. The bomb threat was made Sept. 22 against a dormitory at Jackson State. Jones is being held at the Hinds County jail on charges of false reporting of an explosive device. University spokesman L.A. Warren said Jones admits making the bomb threat. Warren said he doesn’t know

if Jones has a lawyer to speak for him. Jones could face up to 10 years in prison.

Restaurant chain denies discrimination JACKSON — A Mississippi restaurant chain denies that it discriminated against the religious beliefs of a Pentecostal woman by refusing to let her wear a denim skirt instead of blue jeans while she worked as a waitress. J. William Manuel, a lawyer for Georgia Blue LLC, said Wednesday in a statement that the company “does not discriminate on any basis.” Manuel says the four-restaurant company will defend itself against a lawsuit filed Monday by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The federal agency says the Mississippi-based company failed to “reasonably accommodate” the beliefs of Kaetoya Watkins, who told a Georgia Blue manager that her religion prohibits her from wearing pants. The lawsuit says Watkins received no response but was fired when she went to work in November 2015 wearing a denim skirt.

Man who bribed state official to enter prison Nov. 30 JACKSON — A businessman who bribed Mississippi’s former prisons chief will report to prison on Nov. 30. U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate on Monday set that date as the start of Cecil McCrory’s 8½-year prison term. McCrory was originally scheduled to report to prison April 4, but remained free on bail so he can testify in state lawsuits by Attorney General Jim Hood seeking to recover money from prison contractors. Defense attorney Carlos Tanner said McCrory gave depositions Aug. 8 and 9. The former state lawmaker was sentenced in February to time in prison, forfeiture of $1.7 million in assets and a $20,000 fine. McCrory pleaded guilty to money laundering conspiracy, admitting he’d bribed former Corrections Commissioner Christopher Epps. Prosecutors last month said McCrory still owes $129,000 on his forfeiture agreement.

Construction starts on partnership school STARKVILLE – Construction started on a new state-of-the-art partnership school in Starkville. The Starkville-Oktibbeha Consolidated School District school board approved a statement saying the district will commit $10 million so that it can receive the remaining $5 million from the state. The $27.5 million school on the campus of Mississippi State will be for sixth and seventh grade students. The school will focus on hands-on learning opportunities supported by resources at MSU.

Marriage recovers from affair, but wife can’t forgive herself D E A R A B B Y : About 12 years ago, I made a terrible mistake and had an affair. My husAbigail loved Van Buren band me enough to forgive Dear Abby me, and our marriage has been fine ever since. The problem is, I can’t forgive myself. I hate myself! I could have lost everything, including our two kids. I think of all the time I wasted when I could have shared that time with them, and I beat myself up daily over this. I have been depressed for so long. How do I get over this? I’m on meds, but it’s deeper than that. I feel I have a seat waiting in hell because of it. So — no chance for heaven — what’s the point in trying to be happy? I can’t afford counseling, and I don’t have a priest to talk to. Is there some kind of counseling group online I could join? — MISERABLE IN COLORADO DEAR MISERABLE: It appears that, not satisfied with waiting for hell in the hereafter, you have managed to create one for yourself right here on Earth. As far as I know, there’s

no “Jezebels Anonymous” support group. It would be appropriate to find a priest who could give you absolution. However, because there isn’t one and it appears you’re having a crisis of the soul, confide in a member of the clergy of another faith, if there’s one nearby. Trust me, it won’t be the first time he or she has heard a story like yours, and it may bring you comfort. DEAR ABBY: I have a fear of “threes.” My brother, whom I never met, died at 3 months because he had a hole in his heart. My dad died at 43, the day before his 44th birthday. My other brother also died at the age of 43. Mom died in the third month (March) when she was 63 years old, and that’s just immediate family. Other family members and a couple of friends also had the number three connected to their untimely deaths. Whenever the number three comes up, it drives me crazy. I just turned 40 and was miserable during my 30s, anticipating that I would be next. I’m sure I’ll be fine for another two years, but knowing my dad and brother died at 43 will make me fearful for the whole year. Am I cursed? — NUMBERS PHOBIA

DEAR NUMBERS PHOBIA: You have experienced more loss in your life than the average person. For that I can only offer my sympathy. However, you are viewing this the wrong way. Three isn’t YOUR unlucky number — it was the unlucky number of the people who DIED. Because a particular fate befalls someone close does not guarantee the same misfortune will happen to you. Please, enjoy the life you are given to the fullest every day and stop diminishing your quality of life with morbid thoughts. It is your negative thinking that’s the curse, and nothing more. DEAR ABBY: What should I have told my heartbroken 6-year-old daughter when all the other girls (four) on our block were invited to a birthday party except her? — MINNESOTA MOM DEAR MOM: If she were my daughter, I would have told her that we were going to do something special that day -- just the two of us -- and then I would have made it happen. 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). There are things you would throw away if only you were sure that no one else would pick them up and use them. Hold on there. You’re not finished with this work, just taking a break. Look at your tools and resources differently. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Looking fantastic isn’t always feeling fantastic. You’re aware of those who put on a smile even though they are in pain, because you’ve been there too. Your compassion will make all of the difference to someone today. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The characters in the story feel something, and so do you when you participate in the story in any way... even as an innocent bystander (which will be your recommended role in today’s drama). CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll move forward with a venture that has captured your curiosity. Keep your options open as you go, though, because this isn’t what it seems. There’s a

slippery slope ahead. Hold tight to the handrail. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). People who are direct and clear communicators will get most of your attention and business now. Do you sense you should be taking notes? Absorbing the ways of masterful communicators will increase your good fortune later. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Be willing to put down your phone and talk to real people in real time. You’ll get into interesting (if seemingly pointless) conversations that will later be something you can draw from for energy and inspiration. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you live somewhere that has a library, a public gym, a hiking trail, a field, a church or another feature that’s public and free then it’s something to take advantage of today. People need you, and you need people. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The history of a place matters. Whether it’s a happy story or a shameful one, it’s good to know how it was so that when you change it (and you will) you can

appreciate the significance of the change. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your willingness to listen deeply to someone’s (perhaps delusional) side of the story will help you find peace. This isn’t about forgiveness but about facilitating your own healing and passage to better times. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you lose your cell connection it’s safe to blame outside interference. Other personal connections are the same today. Don’t take anything personally or assume any motive. Just call again. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You sense tension and can head off conflict before it happens. Distraction is your best tool. You’re excellent at creating diversions that give people something useful to do. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). When people are happy they bring their best selves to the party. This is what you bring out in people as you encourage and acknowledge their better qualities.

The shine is off

The global diamond market is struggling to maintain its sparkle. Demand for diamond jewelry was essentially flat last year, edging up 0.3 percent to $80 billion, according to the latest annual report by De Beers, the world’s biggest diamond producer. The U.S. posted a healthy 4.4 percent rise thanks to strong economic growth, the report said. But that was offset set by sluggishness in the industry’s big Asian markets, China and India, where weakness in local currencies against the dollar eroded buying power. In India, a demonetiti-

zation program and a jewelers strike also crimped demand. Conditions in both countries, however, have improved so far this year, said the report released earlier this month. In the longer term, the big challenge for the diamond industry industr is millennials, the under-35s under-35 who tend to marry later late and are more interested in luxury travel than gems. De Beers’ efforts to target the Asian end of this demographic included hiring Chinese actress Fan Bingbing to a appear at an opening last ap year for the company’s Madison Avenue store in New York, which draws many Chinese tourists.

Less lustrous: s: The diamond jewelry industry stagnated last year, as ris rising U.S. consumer demand offset declines in big emerging Asian markets. Growth rates, 2016

Wallet check Economists expect that Americans’ incomes grew at a slower pace in August after spiking the previous month. Personal incomes grew 0.4 percent in July, the best showing since February. The strength came from a strong rise in wages and salaries, reflecting a healthy 209,000 gain in employment for the month. Economists predict the Commerce Department will report today that incomes rose 0.2 percent in August.

Lions host Rebels in DC Game of the Week The high school football season is flying by us as week seven is already here. And there are once again some very interesting and mystifying games on the schedule including several squads opening division play. Kent Let’s start Mohundro with the Daily Sports Editor C o r i n t h i a n Game Of The Week.

Thrasher (1-3) @ Biggersville (5-0) The Lions are seeking their first 6-0 start since 1979 as they host Thrasher in a Division 1-1A game at the Lions Den. “Don’t let their (Rebels) record fool you,” said Biggersville head coach Stan Platt. “They are really good and they have one of the best players in the division in (Shawn Dalton) Weatherbee. He is the real deal. And they have several other really good players. I’m expecting them to be our toughest

Pick With Kent game so far.” Platt and Thrasher head coach Perry Murphy go back to the 1970’s when the THS coach was an assistant at UT Martin while Platt was a player for the Skyhawks. For the record, the Lions actually started the 1979 season 8-0 so BHS has to win three more in a row to tie the school record. But both coaches would rather not talk about those kinds of facts. They’d rather stick to the game at hand. Biggersville took down TCPS 14-7 a few weeks ago while the Eagles shut out Thrasher two weeks ago. But that doesn’t mean anything come tonight. This will be not only a division game but also a neighborhood rivalry game as the two schools are only 16 miles apart. I look for a close contest with home field playing a part. Kent’s Pick: Biggersville

Kossuth (4-2) @ Booneville (3-2)

Both head coaches in this contest have a long history and both played for Kossuth during their high school days. This will be the seventh straight year that Aggies coach Brian Kelly will face Blue Devils head man Mike Mattox with Kelly holding a 4-2 edge in the series. But neither one is concerned about their coaching record against each other and the fact they are kin by marriage. There’s the little matter of a football game, the Division 1-3A opener for both teams. Booneville is beat up and has five players that started the season out for the year with injuries. But they do have a talented leader in QB Dallas Gamble and he still has plenty of help. Kossuth will counter with their own talented trigger man in Matthew Bobo. Both QB’s have been Daily Corinthian Players Of The Week this season and both teams are always well-coached and well-prepared. This game will also likely

be a close one and home field could again be a big factor. Kent’s Pick: Booneville

Corinth (2-3) @ Byhalia (3-2) The Warriors will face another group of Indians when they travel to face a good Byhalia team with plenty of speed and talent on both sides of the ball. Corinth is playing much better football the past two weeks and rallied to beat Kossuth last week on the road to snap a 2-game slide against the Aggies. The Indians have lopsided wins against Holly Springs, Coldwater and Caledonia while their losses have come to Coahoma County and Independence. Coach Todd Lowery’s team is getting healthier and better by the week. I believe this contest will be close for possibly a majority of the game but if the same Corinth team that won at Kossuth last week shows up at Byhalia expect a happy trip home on the bus for CHS. Kent’s Pick: Corinth Please see PICK | 11A

Coaches Kelly and Mattox have long history

Kossuth head coach Brian Kelly (above left) and Booneville head coach Mike Mattox (right) have a long and proud history both as players at Kossuth and as head coaches facing each other for the seventh consecutive season. Kelly owns a 4-2 lead in the series as his Aggies travel to face Mattox’s Blue Devils in the Division 1-3A opener for both school’s tonight. Kelly grew up just 3-4 miles down the road from Mattox and played on Aggie squads in the late 1990’s when Mattox was an assistant for Booneville. They also have family members who are related. Both coaches have similar coaching styles and have great respect for each other.

No. 24 MSU faces No. 13 Auburn No. 1 Alabama faces foe Ole Miss The Associated Press

No. 24 Mississippi State (3-1, 1-1 SEC) at No. 13 Auburn (3-1, 1-0), Saturday, 6 p.m. ET (ESPN). Line: Auburn by 9. Series record: Auburn leads 62-26-2.

What’s at stake The winner controls its own fate in the Southeastern Conference Western Division and emerges as the biggest division challenger to No. 1 Alabama.

The loser faces an uphill battle in that competition.

Key matchup Auburn’s defense against Mississippi State’s offense. The Tigers rank fourth nationally in total defense and seventh in scoring defense. Mississippi State has the SEC’s No. 2 run offense and No. 3 scoring offense. Please see MSU | 11A

The Associated Press

Mississippi (2-1, 0-0 SEC) at No. 1 Alabama (4-0, 1-0), Saturday, 8 p.m. ET (ESPN) Line: Alabama by 27 ½. Series record: Alabama leads 52-10-1.

What’s at stake The Crimson Tide is coming off its best performance of the season, shutting out and overwhelming Vanderbilt. The goal is to keep the dominance going against

a team that has been bothersome of late. The Rebels have won two of the last three against the Tide and jumped out to a big lead against Alabama last season. Ole Miss had a week off after losing at Cal. With an interim coach and a postseason ban in place, there is not much hope this season for the Rebels. Beating Alabama would change everything.

Northeast wins first division game The Northeast Tigers traveled to Clarksdale last night and won their second consecutive contest- their first in North division play- by defeating Coahoma 27-10. Desmond Hunter tossed three touchdowns for Northeast. The Tigers are back on the road next Thursday at division rival Itawamba for a 7 pm kickoff.

Scoreboard

PICK CONTINUED FROM 10A

Alcorn Central (3-3) @ Mantachie (1-5) On paper this should be a sure win for the Golden Bears but not so fast. Central has been in this position many times before on the road and lost. Will the ‘favorite’ curse bite AC again tonight as they travel to face a Mustang team that has beaten only New Site? They have endured blowout losses to Nettleton, Holly Springs, Mooreville, Hatley, and Macon Road Baptist. As long as coach Brandon Cherry’s offense can control the clock with their running game and minimize penalties and turnovers the Bears should arrive back in Glen with a winning record. Kent’s Pick: Alcorn Central

Ripley (1-4) @ Tishomingo County (2-4) The Braves will host the Tigers in the Division 1-4A opener for both teams. Not saying this is a must win but if either squad has any hopes of competing for a playoff spot it’s vitally important to begin with a division win. Tishomingo County played without star running back Tayvious

Baseball AL STANDINGS

Duckett last week against Holly Springs and committed five turnovers but still won. If Duckett can’t go tonight and TCHS continues to have turnover issues then the Tigers will likely leave Iuka with a win if they don’t have similar issues. The Tigers four losses haven’t come against creampuffs either. They have dropped decisions to Itawamba AHS, Calhoun City, Louisville and Pontotoc. All four of those schools will likely be top teams in their division’s. Kent’s Pick: Ripley

South Gibson (5-1) @ McNairy Central (3-3) The positive things for the Bobcats are they are coming off a recordsetting blowout of Humboldt on the road and this game is being played on their home field. But when you dig deeper you begin to discover just how much of an underdog MCHS will be tonight as they face region favorite South Gibson. The Hornets are loaded and have upper-tier players across the board on both sides of the ball so the ‘Cats are gonna have to play a perfect game and hope that the Hornets cough the ball up a few times. Kent’s Pick: South Gibson

MSU CONTINUED FROM 10A

Players to watch Mississippi St: QB Nick Fitzgerald is a double threat who ranks 10th in the SEC in rushing yards but isn’t among the league’s top 10 passers. Clemson’s Kelly Bryant managed a few big runs against Auburn’s defense. Auburn: RBs Kamryn Pettway and Kerryon Johnson are both strong runners. Injuries and Pettway’s one-game suspension have kept them from the backfield in the same game so far this season. With Pettway sidelined by a lower leg injury against Missouri, Johnson ran for five touchdowns.

Facts & Figures This is the Bulldogs’ third straight game against a team ranked in the Top 15, including a 37-7 win over LSU and a 31-3 loss at Georgia. No other team has

done that so far this season. The Bulldogs haven’t faced back-to-back Top 15 teams on the road since visiting then-No. 14 South Carolina and then No. 11 Texas A&M in November, 2013. ... Auburn has a 28-7 record against Mississippi State at home. ... Three of the last seven meetings have come down to the game’s final drive. ... Auburn and Clemson are the only FBS teams ranked in the Top 10 in total defense, scoring defense and passing defense. ... The Bulldogs have allowed only one sack this season. The only other Power 5 teams to allow one or none are Minnesota and Iowa State.

OLE MISS Key matchup

Players to watch Mississippi: QB Shea Patterson. The Rebels have a good one in Patterson, who is averaging 427 yards per game. This will be the talented sophomore’s first start against Alabama. Former Ole Miss QB Chad Kelly passed for 421 yards against the Tide last season. Alabama: OLB Rashaan Evans. The

linebacker, along with fellow LBs Anfernee Jennings and Dylan Moses, returned from injury last week against the Commodores. The Alabama pass rush has been less than fierce so far, but a healthy Evans, along with Jennings, could give that a boost against the best quarterback the Tide has faced so far.

Facts & Figures Alabama has won 68 straight games against unranked teams ... The Tide has won 28 of 29 at Bryant-Denny Stadium, the only loss coming to Ole Miss in 2015. ... Ole Miss WR A.J. Brown (knee), the SEC’s leader in yards receiving, is a game-time decision, according to coach Matt Luke ... The Rebels have scored 109 points in the last three games against Alabama.

All those Alabama runners vs. Ole Miss linebackers. The Tide has four players, including QB Jalen Hurts, who have run for at least 150 yards. The tailback trio of Bo Scarbrough, Damien Harris and freshman Najee Harris fuel an offense that averages 303 yards per game and 6.52 yards per carry. The Ole Miss run defense ranks toward the bottom of the SEC and its linebackers, led by leading tackler DeMarquis Gates, are creating few negative plays.

BLUE MOUNTAIN — The Blue Mountain College Women’s Basketball team has released its 2017-2018 season schedule. The Lady Toppers, who made it to the second round of the SSAC Tournament last season and knocked off state rival William Carey three times, face one of their toughest seasons in recent history coming off a 2016-17 season where they went 10-16, 7-13 SSAC.

Highlighted by a matchup against Southern Miss. on Dec. 30, BMC will lead off the season with perennial powerhouse Freed-Hardeman on Oct. 31 and then travel to McKenzie, Tenn. to take on three of the top 25 teams in the nation in the NAIA at the SSAC/MSC Conference Challenge on Nov. 9, 10 and 11. The Lady Toppers will have to deal with the loss of four starting seniors from last season’s team, including All-Confer-

ence pick Madison McCreless. BMC will return one of the conference’s finest players, Matavia Cox, who was selected AllConference last season, while averaging 13.3 points, four rebounds and 31 minutes played per game. Head Coach Lavon Driskell, in his 16th season, understands the challenge and excitement ahead for his Lady Toppers. “I have great optimism about our upcoming season,” Driskell

said. “We have a nice blend of talent in our returning players and new incoming players as well. The schedule will be very challenging, but will certainly prepare us for conference play and help us attain one of our goals of being a top 25 team. Our team is coming together nicely and we are excited about the upcoming season and what it holds for us.” Look for the complete schedule in Tuesday’s Daily Corinthian sports pages.

BMC Men’s basketball releases schedule Blue Mountain Sports Information

BLUE MOUNTAIN — Blue Mountain College Men’s Basketball has released its 2017-18 schedule. Coming off last season’s 13-14, 9-11 SSAC record with two wins over Division I programs, the Toppers look to get back in the saddle, taking on five Division I programs in the 2017-18 season, highlighted by showdowns

with Ole Miss on Nov. 3 and Southern Miss on Nov. 20. To go along with the new season, BMC will have a new head coach on the sidelines, Water Valley’s Jon Nevol who assisted as a student at Ole Miss. “My expectation going into this season is to establish a tradition capable of competing for championships,” Nevol said. “I want us to protect home

court and compete each and every game until the horn sounds, and finish the season on a winning note.” The Toppers face a tough SSAC conference schedule, with their first test coming against Mobile Nov. 30 at Blue Mountain. With the loss of the top three scorers to graduation, the Toppers look to seniors Justin McClellon, Chase Brittingham and Dominic Hudson to lead

a talented group of newcomers. McClellon averaged seven points per game last season and a .471 three-point percentage, despite a season-ending injury. Included in the Toppers’ schedule will be 12 home dates at historic Tyler Gymnasium. Look for the complete schedule in Tuesday’s Daily Corinthian sports pages.

Peaceful protest resides at heart of freedom with the last statement receiving great accolade from his audiStacy ence at Jones the Mason Temple in The Memphis Downtowner in April 1968. As evident in his writings such as “Nonviolent Resistance� and in his practices, King believed strongly in the power of nonviolent protest, borrowing from the principles of Mahatma Gandhi and Henry David Thoreau. He continues in the “Mountaintop� speech by saying, “And so just as I say, we aren’t going to let any dogs or water hoses turn us around, we aren’t going to let any injunction turn us around.� He even went to jail to underscore this idea, which he proved in “Letter from Birmingham Jail,� an articulate response to the eight Alabama clergymen who at-

I did not live during segregation and the social upheaval of the 1960s. I have, however, taught the work of Dr. Martin Luther King in my English classes to highlight its masterful rhetorical features. When I hear excerpts of his last oration, known as the “Mountaintop� speech, filmed only hours before the assassination and delivered only a couple of miles from where I would be born five years later, I am deeply moved. I re-watched the last several minutes of it this week. Using anaphora, the repetition of phrases King often employed to create emphasis in many of speeches, he eloquently delivers some important points. He says, “Somewhere I read of the freedom of assembly. Somewhere I read of the freedom of speech. Somewhere I read of the freedom of press. Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for right,�

In the midst of controversy this week surround-

IT’S BACK!

Snapsh t

ing peaceful protest, it is important to sift through an important piece of logic. First, holding aloft or saluting an American flag does not entail being a patriot. Members of the Ku Klux Klan regularly incorporate American flags in marches, and by no means could that group’s deplorable members be characterized as patriots. Therefore, does the syllogism fail on the other side? Does refusing to salute the American flag in traditional fashion preclude patriotism? Certainly not. In 1943, the Supreme Court ruled inWest VirginiaStateBoard of Education v.Barnettethat, according to the Free Speech clause of the Constitution, public school students could not be forced to say the Pledge of Allegiance or salute the flag. Veterans have long fought to uphold citizens’ rightsto have choice in such compliance. Further, it is likely that some of America’s greatest patriots at times refused to comply with accepted nods or gestures toward the nation. In fact, sitting by the wayside doing nothing would make onelessof a patriot. King references this lack of action in regard to injustice in his writings. And if one wants to consider precedent, King himself took to his knee in

protest in 1965, the protest model heavily criticized of late. While leading a prayer outside the Dallas County Alabama Courthouse during a march to protest lack of voting rights, King knelt down. His move was in response to the group of 250 peaceful marchers being arrested by the Selma police for lacking a proper permit to parade. Beyond the means, some have criticized the ends of such protests.Are they successful? While some have not been successful, other protests have been monumental in American history. Consider the lunch counter sit-ins and the Montgomery Bus Boycott of the 1960s. So, yes, some of the most positive turning points of American history were galvanized by peaceful protest. What if those Massachusetts colonists had not trespassed on a British ship to protest taxation without representation? What if Rosa Parks had subserviently sat in the back of that bus? What if, for over 50 years, women had not marched in the streets, suffered hunger strikes, and submitted themselves to being jailed all for one simple right: to cast a ballot to help select who represented their interests in governing bodies?

NEW YORK — As everyone must know by now, Fox’s animated series “Family Guy� lives to lampoon human nature and human frailties, and does so without fear or favor. There’s something bracing about “Family Guy� as it blows its whistle on a society that seems to grow ever coarser and more mean-spirited, while individuals squawk at any hint of disrespect directed toward them and wilt at every trigger word. For anyone weary of today’s reflexive correctness, the show, with its deft blend of the ingenious and the rude-and-crude, provides a counteractive safe space where no low blow, regardless of how low, is inadmissible. And so it carries on, as porky patriarch Peter Griffin and his family and friends begin their 15th season on Sunday at 8 p.m. on Fox. With that in mind, show runners Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin recently shared some details of what lies ahead — including the series’ 300th episode, which won’t be just a milestone, Appel promises, “but one of our best.� The season premiere, said Sulkin, “will be our shameless grab to win a (best show) Emmy� — an itch so far unscratched by the Television Academy. As Peter embarks on his own For Your Consideration campaign, he

will make “Family Guy� more like proven Emmywinning shows, including not just comedy but also dramas and reality. Guest voices include Sofia Vergara, Ty Burrell, Julie Bowen, Louis C.K., Bill Maher, Christina Pickles and the late Adam West. What else? “We’ll have a special episode where (precocious toddler) Stewie is in therapy for the entire half-hour,� said Sulkin, “with the therapist played by Sir Ian McKellen.� “Stewie actually learns something about himself,� said Appel — “as opposed to everyone else’s therapy.� Another episode, titled “Three Directors,� will tell the same simple story — Peter losing his job — within the half-hour, “but each version is told in the style of Quentin Tarantino, Wes Anderson and Michael Bay,� Appel said. “We have an episode where Brian (the erudite, articulate family dog) and Stewie go back to Victorian England and play Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson,� said Sulkin. “That seems like something we might have done before, but we actually hadn’t.� The series, which premiered in 1999, was created by Seth MacFarlane, who handed over the reins as showrunner in 2010 to pursue other projects, including the two “Ted� films and, currently, his

Rude revelry: ‘Family Guy’ launches 15th season Sunday

Saturday

I find it ironic that some who purport to believe strongly in the Constitution want to discount some protests simply because they do not understand their bases or may not agree with them. Can someone arbitrarily declare a protest “wrong� if it is truly tied to moral conviction on the part of the protester? Would it not be more egregious, as King points out in his writings about “just� and “unjust� laws, to require or encourage someone to be an accomplice to a practice or procedure that supports the morally unacceptable? In this case, would we truly be any better than those who once turned fire hoses on protesters? Whether I wholly agree with someone’s stance or completely disagree, I adhere to British writer Evelyn Beatrice Hall’s statement: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.� No matter the protest, this is what I, too, believe.

new Fox sci-fi series “The Orville,� which he created, wrote and stars in. But he continues to voice a number of favorite “Family Guy� characters, “and while he’s recording if there are things that he doesn’t like, or DOES like, he will let us know,� Sulkin said. One of MacFarlane’s signature elements in the show is its cutaway gags and comic asides. Peppered through each episode’s 22 minutes, those cutaways are where some of its sharpest and most devilish comedy resides, and where the series takes its wildest flights of fancy. “It’s one of Seth’s brilliant strokes,� said Appel. “The cutaways predate YouTube and Hulu clips, and anticipated the shared content of my kids’ generation. When people watch 30- or 60- or 90-second bits that they like, that they think is funny, they’ll follow the trail to the whole show those bits came from. ‘Family Guy’ is popular because hopefully it’s good, but the cutaways serve as a lifeline to the show in some ways.� Another MacFarlane masterstroke continues unabated: the considerable naughtiness of “Family Guy.� This means ongoing discussions with the network over content. “Rich has a background in law,� said Sulkin, “so when we have issues that are brought up by Standards, he is particularly good at making arguments to get us around some of those issues.� “I think what Alec is saying is: as a comedy writer, I’m a great lawyer,� Appel cracked. “Rich just made several valiant phone calls trying to defend a bit in an upcoming show which is a play on the ‘I Love Lucy’ chocolates-on-a-conveyer-belt scene,� Sulkin said. “But instead of Lucy, it’s Peter. And instead of chocolates, it’s little Dixie cups filled with truckers’ urine for a drug test. Those are the kinds of things that we fight for.� “It’s not exactly what my mother imagined when she paid for my law school,� Appel said, “but it’s something.� He didn’t say who won this particular debate.

Seeing new friends go away On occasions my wife and I are able to take a camping trip in Gary our moAndrews torhome. Most of Devotionals the time it is with our children and grandchildren and the memories made are tremendous. These trips are always special because we not only have special family time but we meet others that we haven’t seen before and may never see again after we leave our campsite. Recently we had the opportunity of spending an entire week in the Georgia Mountains. My oldest grandson had a ball tournament and not only did we make new acquaintances, we got to see some of our old friends we had made earlier at ball tournaments.

Being around people you know makes it easy to share your faith in Christ, however some of these people you have been around only a few days, maybe a few hours, is more difficult because you never know how they are going to receive the good news. Regardless of where we are or where we go, we are going to find the opportunity to tell someone about Jesus. I have found out that most of the people that we come in contact with have a personal relationship with Christ and welcome the conversation that is brought up. On these camping trips I have found very few, if any, non-believers or outright atheists. There may have been some agnostics along the way, but none of them would challenge our conversation or shun us from being neighborly. Spending seven days next to a couple from Pennsylvania but now

lives in Georgia has been a real treat. These two have been very gracious, helpful, polite, and desirous of our friendship. My wife and I really hated to see the week end because of our new friends knowing that we may not cross paths again. They left a day earlier than we did and it was hard to look at the empty spot next to us. This is the way life is. We have people come into our lives and then leave and for many of us it leaves a hole in our heart for a while. This creates a feeling of loneliness but we know in our heart that the Lord will provide for the future. We will make new friends when we go camping again and we will keep the fond memories of friends we made while camping in Georgia. So it is with our loved ones and friends that we are around most of our lives. When these leave it usually is through death and we know for sure that

we will never be reunited while on earth. However we as Christians know for sure that one day we will be reunited with all of those that have gone before us and now lives with Jesus in eternity. The loneliness of losing a friend or a family member may linger with us for a while but we need to remember what our Lord told us in Mark 16:15; “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”

Oct. 8 with Rev. Steven Roberson as guest speaker and Synagogue Missionary Baptist Church of Rienzi as special guests. Rev. Blake Scales is host pastor. The church is located at 1605 Droke Road.

Nebo C.M.E. Church of Baldwyn will be the special guests.

Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – 1 Peter 3:13-17; Monday – Jeremiah 1:7-8; Tuesday – Matthew 5:13-16; Wednesday – Psalm 40:9-10; Thursday – 2 Timothy 1:8-12; Friday – 2 Samuel 14:14; Saturday –Acts 9:15. It is my hope that someday we will see our friends that we made during our week long camping trip again and if we do it will be a great joy. For those of us that have lost loved ones we know for sure we will see them again when we go home to be with the Lord also. Prayer: Dear God thank you for the opportunity of meeting new

people and making new friends. I pray for all of them that we have met and ask tyou look after them and take care of them. Lord I pray that all of them know you personally also. Amen.

GIVE THANKS FOR PASTORS!

Having one of those autumn days What are your feelings when fall arrives and begins to change the feel in the air? A r e there certain aromas, like Lora Ann the smell Huff of pear preserves Back Porch simmering in the kitchen, or particular colors in the sunsets, that make you “wanna go home?” My roommate from college days called recently and told me she was having “one of those autumn days.” I knew exactly what she was talking about. She and I share the same sentimental urges to pause and journey back in time when the air begins to change and the colors of the leaves give the landscape a new hew. A feeling of sadness easily slips in. So I understand the old familiar song that says, “Don’t it make you wanna go home now, don’t it make you wanna go home? All God’s children get weary when they roam, don’t it make you wanna go home?” Then the lyrics describe many changes that have taken place since the writer left home years before. Sometimes you just need to get in the car or

truck and drive – or set out on foot into the woods and fields. You just need a mental taste of how things used to be when friends and family were younger, when the warmness of a hug from your mother or a one-on-one chat with her gave you just the right amount of encouragement you needed. Maybe you need to remember times when your daddy looked at you with that certain expression that said he was proud of you without ever opening his mouth to say a word. He didn’t have to say “I love you” – you just knew by the way he smiled and looked at you. My parents’ generation had trouble using a lot of words to express affection. In fact, their eyes usually filled with tears if they tried to use words so they would shy away from too much talk – they used actions and eye contact instead. Maybe it’s because of the time of year, but lately I’ve felt a real need to talk with my mother. I would love to hear her comments about how our children have grown up to be productive adults and how special our grandchildren are. And yes, I would even like her to share her opinions about things that are going on in our world. I smile as I say that because

I very well know what her opinions would be – but I would still love to hear her tell me and watch her face as she did! I know that in the political arena, she would immediately turn off the TV when vulgar words come from a politician’s mouth, and she would be shocked to think our society has come to accept such things as normal and appropriate. Furthermore, she would not hesitate to tell the grandchildren what should be done as punishment for using those bad words! My mother, in her later years, never looked forward to late fall and winter – it seemed that during her lifetime, she had lost too many loved ones during that time of year. She always remembered as the seasons began to change, and I could often sense the sadness. …But now that the nights are getting cooler and the autumn breezes are making me feel sentimental, I promise to focus only on the happy memories. I do “wanna go home” but like in the song, everything’s changed now so I will have to visit only in my mind. I’m so thankful I can still enjoy a trip like that! (Daily Corinthian columnist Lora Ann Huff lives in the Wenasoga community.)

Directness is better than shame game WIZARD OF ID

PICKLES

Dear Annie: My husband and I are retired. We are in our 70s, and he is in poor health. He has cancer. But the problem I’m writing to you about is that he does not get visits or calls from his family on a regular basis unless he’s in the hospital. They live in the same town as we do. When I was younger, my parents shamed me into visiting twice a month. I didn’t mind, because it was the right thing to do. How do we approach this problem. Shame them? — Looking for the Right Words Dear Looking: Don’t play the shame game. Be direct. It’s possible his family members don’t realize no one’s calling or visiting; everyone may just assume another member of the family is staying in close touch. Tell them how much it would mean to your husband if they visited more often and not only when he’s in the hospital. They’re not just your husband’s family; they’re your family, too. And we all sometimes need family to remind us of what’s important. Dear Annie: My daughter and I had lunch today at a very nice pizza cafe we frequent. Three booths away were a couple and a

Dear Annie

boy of about 8 or 9. The woman started to berate the child. Apparently, she asked him to get a plate, and the plate was too small. She very loudly screamed, “How can you be so stupid to get such a small plate!” She went on and on. I walked by the booth, and both the boy and the man were staring silently at their plates. The woman continued for at least 15 minutes. She told him she was going to shave his head! The child began crying. It was such verbal abuse that I couldn’t eat my food. Then the boy yelled, “I don’t even want to be in this family!” Other diners began to notice. She finally left the restaurant, with the man and the boy trailing behind. What must this kid’s life be like behind closed doors? I wanted to do something. I wanted to call the police; it was so horrible. Should I have spoken to her? — Wish I Were With Child Protective Services Dear WIWWCPS: It’s difficult to know what to do when witnessing such situations unfolding. The best course de-

pends on the scenario. If it’s merely an exasperated mom raising her voice at her child in the grocery, try to empathize. Every parent has been there, and in such moments of frustration, support can go much further than judgment. That might mean offering assistance (carrying groceries, cleaning up a spill, etc.) or just a sympathetic smile. In more extreme situations, use caution. Experts recommend not confronting the parent yourself if you can avoid it. Instead, seek out a security guard or, in cases of physical abuse, call 911 and try to monitor the situation from a distance until authorities arrive. Take down the license plate number or other relevant information. If you find that you must intervene in the moment to protect the child’s safety, proceed as gingerly as possible and try to be kind to the parent. That may sound counterintuitive, but it’s the best way to de-escalate the situation. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
