The CHS Warrior Band will show off its skills in an exhibition performance at the end of the Crossroads Marching Classic.

The eight candidates vying for county school board seats will get a chance to talk at an upcoming community speaking. The Daily Corinthian will partner with the Alcorn County Advisory Council for the event set for Saturday at 6 p.m. at the Kossuth Elementary School auditorium. “We are pleased to host this important speaking with the Advisory Council,” said Daily Corinthian publisher Reece

Terry. “We hope by attending, voters will get a better understanding of where the candidates stand on the important issues facing the Alcorn School District.” The question and answer style speaking will give the public an opportunity to meet with each candidate before the Nov. 8 election. “These are very important oﬃces, where decisions are made that aﬀect all of our children attending county Please see CANDIDATES | 2A

Marching classic brings Relic show offers crowds to Crossroads glimpse of history BY BOBBY J. SMITH bsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The Crossroads Marching Classic will return on Oct. 15 to Warrior Stadium II. The third annual event will feature a dozen competing marching bands from across North Mississippi, including the Alcorn Central High School band in the 2A division. The Corinth Warrior Band and Northeast Mississippi Community College Showband from Tigerland will show oﬀ

their chops in exhibition performances near the end of the event. “The Corinth High School Band is very excited to be hosting the third annual Crossroads Marching Classic,” said CHS Band Director Tommy Thompson. “The students, parents and community enjoy watching and listening to all of the bands perform, and our guests get a chance to experience all the great hospitality and food that Corinth has to oﬀer.”

2016-17 Band Aids President Therray Taylor said the event is a great opportunity to raise money and community support for the Corinth band and to do more things in the community. “It also helps with middle school band students, motivating them to continue with band through high school,” said Taylor.

The son of a police officer became a police officer. “I love it,” said Corinth Police Department Sgt. Chad Harville. “I grew up watching my dad be a police officer and I always wanted to be just like him.” His dad, Scotty Harville, retired as the Corinth assistant police chief in 2014 – the same year Chad came back home after a stint on the Tupelo police force. “Corinth is a special place. A community I love to serve,” said the 14year veteran officer. The father of three children – Caitlyn, 10, Walker, 8, and Elee, 3 – says his “priority is to make the city a safer place for his kids to grow up.”

Space filling up for community yard sale BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Space is filling up for next weekend’s Daily Corinthian Community Yard. Set for Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Corinth Depot at 221 North Fillmore Street, the annual event benefits the nonprofit Crossroads Museum’s Save the Fire Truck Campaign. “We’ve been working for several years to raise enough money to house the fire truck,” said museum president Cathy Wood. “These yard sale events help us out in that

department.” Eﬀorts to build housing to display the 1924 American LaFrance pumper fire truck on loan to the museum from the City of Corinth have been underway since 2013. More than $50,000 is needed. “We’re still a long way from where we need to be,” added Wood. “We’ve had other fundraisers for the fire truck, but the yard sale has generated us the most for this important cause.” All proceeds from each $25 10x10 booth space at the yard sale will go to the fire truck fund. The

museum will also sell Coke products and pizza during the yard sale with those funds benefiting the cause. Items such as yard sale/junk items, clothing, furniture, glassware, antiques, toys, electronics, handcrafted items, baked goods, commercial products and independent consultant items are a sample of things which can be sold. As a added thank you, the Daily Corinthian is including a free classified yard sale ad for each applicant. The 18-word ad should

include items each applicant will have for sale during the Community Yard Sale. Ads will publish in the Daily Corinthian classified yard sale section on Friday and Saturday. Wood said locals who do not wish to set up at the sale can donate items to the museum to sale at the event. “Anyone who has items they would like to donate should call or come by the museum,” Wood said. “We really appreciate the great help from the community.” Registration deadline is Friday by 4 p.m. Those

“We invite everyone to join us by getting involved in the Relay. Our hope is to have a lot of participation this year.”

“We will discuss the various fundraisers that we will be planning throughout the year and share ideas on the things we can do to help accomplish our overall goal,” said Events Chair Lanell Coln. “Several teams have signed up some returning and some new, but we always have room for more.” “There isn’t a family out there who hasn’t been aﬀected by cancer in some way,” she added. “We invite everyone to join us by getting involved in the Relay. Our hope is to have a lot of participation this year.” The motivation behind Relay for Life is “The hope that those lost to cancer will never

Also known as a P16, the Advisory Council is Alcorn County’s first of its kind. It’s a Mississippi Department of Education backed group which acts as a direct voice of advisement to the Alcorn School District Board of Education. Candidates expected to attend the community speaking include Daniel Cooper, Keith R. Stevens

Today in History

Local/Region

Daily Corinthian • 3A

Across the Region Booneville

Today is Sunday, Oct. 9, the 283rd day of 2016. There are 83 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 9, 1936, the first generator at Boulder (later Hoover) Dam began transmitting electricity to Los Angeles.

On this date: In 1514, Mary Tudor, the 18-year-old sister of Henry VIII, became Queen consort of France upon her marriage to 52-year-old King Louis XII, who died less than three months later. In 1776, a group of Spanish missionaries settled in present-day San Francisco. In 1914, the Belgian city of Antwerp fell to German forces during World War I. In 1975, Soviet scientist Andrei Sakharov was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1995, a sabotaged section of track caused an Amtrak train, the Sunset Limited, to derail in Arizona; one person was killed and about 80 were injured.

Student arrested in vehicle break-in BOONEVILLE — Booneville Police arrested a NEMCC student in connection with a vehicle break-in at the BHS homecoming football game. Bryce Anthony Groce Smith, 18, of White Hall, (2970 Hollow Lane, Powder Springs, Ga.) was charged with one count burglary and larceny of an automobile, said Booneville Chief of Police Michael Ramey. Smith is accused of breaking into a vehicle Friday night during the homecoming game. “The officers actually caught him in the vehicle at the time of the burglary,” he said. His bond was set at $5,000. “We are investigating some other car burglaries around the area of the high school that occurred last Wednesday or Thursday night. If anyone had anything broken into or taken, they should notify the police department at 728-3161 or 728-6104,” Ramey said. In a separate, unrelated arrest, Booneville Police arrested Krystal

L. Jackson, 23, of 100 Cedar Drive, Booneville, on a charge of one count fraudulently obtaining goods. Her bond was set at $5,000. She is accused of using a debit card to pay a power bill in the amount of $408 without permission from the complainant.

Booneville Artist’s work will be displayed at NEMCC BOONEVILLE — The Artwork of Robbie Patterson Boyd will be on display in the Anderson Hall Art Gallery on the Northeast Mississippi Community College campus in Booneville beginning now through Nov. 15. Gallery hours are Monday – Thursday 8 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. (Contact Terry Anderson at 662-720-7336 or tfanderson@nemcc.edu for more information.)

Starkville Couple leaves gift to veterinary school STARKVILLE — A deceased couple’s estate has gifted Mississippi State University $7.2 million to endow schol-

arships for veterinary students. MSU announced the gift from the estate of the late Charles and Viola Bardsley Wednesday. It nearly doubles the veterinary college’s overall endowment. Melissa Montgomery of MSU’s College of Veterinary Medicine says students will apply for money each year based on academics and area of study. Montgomery says MSU expects to award about $280,000 in scholarships yearly. “Dr. and Mrs. Bardsley loved small animals, namely dogs, and they recognized that supporting veterinary students through scholarships, they could impact animals and the people charged with caring for animals,” Montgomery wrote in an email. Charles Bardsley developed pesticides, earning two patents while working for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agritec Co. in Texas and Mallinckrodt Chemical Co. in St. Louis. He also taught at Clemson University. A native of Rhode Island, Bardsley came to MSU in 1950, earning a master’s degree in agronomy and then a doctorate in agronomy and soils.

Tupelo Tupelo will receive large FEMA relief TUPELO — Over two years after a destructive tornado struck the city, some federal disaster aid remains available. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal said Tupelo will receive about $438,000 in FEMA relief to compensate for the destruction of a former fire station on Rial Drive. The money will be used to purchase some heavy equipment for the Tupelo Public Works Department. In total, the equipment costs will be about $585,000. The city will pay 25 percent of that price, with FEMA picking up the rest. “I was asked to get a list of equipment together that would be useful to have if we had another event like we did in ‘14,” said Chuck Williams, Public Works director. Two dump trucks, a shovel truck and a wheeled excavator will be purchased, according to current plans. The new excavator will replace one the department already owns. “What we have now, it’s on its last legs,” Wil-

TUNICA — Mississippi will have more time to respond to a lawsuit filed by the widow of a state Gaming Commission agent who was killed during a weapons training exercise. The Commercial Appeal reports a magistrate granted the request from lawyers for the state to extend the response deadline until Nov. 7. The original deadline was Oct. 6. Summer Gorman sued the state over her husband’s January 2015 death. John Gorman was participating in a required weapons training seminar in Tunica held by the Gaming Commission when the course instructor shot him in the chest. The lawsuit said the training scenario was supposed to involve dummy weapons, not real ones. Lawyers for Attorney General Jim Hood’s office said the delay was needed because of prior obligations and time constraints.

Corinth, Miss.

Success will come by moving together BY MIKE BARKETT Guest Columnist

October is a month of celebration for the Mississippi Construction Education Foundation, and we’re inviting the people of Mississippi to join us. In addition to being National Careers in Construction Month, this marks 20 years since MCEF launched its comprehensive strategy targeting a stronger, better-prepared workforce for Mississippi. What began as a mere vision in 1996 has grown into a nationally recognized coalition that is preparing Mississippians for successful careers in construction and manufacturing while promoting job opportunities in the industry. Chances are you or someone you know has benefitted from one of our career and technical education programs. We are proud of the remarkable progress that we, along with an array of dedicated partners, are making to provide high quality, state-of-the-art training programs. And we are prouder still of the many students who have completed those programs to become successful craft professionals. They’re a key part of Mississippi’s economy, and we want to ensure our skilled workforce continues finding job opportunities well into the future ― stable, high-paying jobs with advancement opportunities that can sustain families and communities. This momentum must continue. By 2019, Mississippi will need more than 80,000 craft professionals to meet the needs of the state’s growing construction and manufacturing industries. We remain committed to working to ensure those jobs are filled by skilled and qualified Mississippians. Our wide-ranging package of programs and services is supporting the growing need for traditional craft workers such as welders, carpenters and electricians. We are aggressively introducing middle school and high school students to craft career possibilities, enabling them to choose pathways that interest and are right for them. Expanding partnerships with the state’s community colleges are creating much needed credentialing programs. Meanwhile, MCEF is building on its position as a national leader to create additional learning opportunities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. During this month of celebration, we’re meeting with education and community leaders across the state to raise awareness of job opportunities in the construction and manufacturing industries and how they can work together to encourage more students to pursue career and technical education. MCEF is fortunate to have so many likeminded and dedicated partners in Mississippi who are working toward the same goals. Without their support, we wouldn’t get very far. But the truth is that our most influential partner is you. The more you know about career and technical education, the more likely you are to speak positively about construction and manufacturing careers in your community. When you learn about the training and credentialing involved in craft professions, your respect and admiration for students who choose these career paths will definitely increase. When more parents, school leaders and employers become knowledgeable about the rewards of career and technical education, there’s a good chance that more young people in your community will pursue careers in construction and manufacturing. In other words, you’ll help remove the stigma too often associated with career and technical education programs by presenting them in the positive, accurate light they deserve. And by doing so, you’ll open a world of rewarding career opportunities for new generations of Mississippians. Each of us has a role to play in promoting the rewarding careers available in Mississippi’s growing construction and manufacturing industries. Please support MCEF’s eﬀorts by being a positive advocate in your community for career and technical education. With everyone moving forward together, success will surely follow. Mike Barkett is president of the Mississippi Construction Education Foundation.

Prayer for today My Father, may I have an appreciation of the wonderful creations of the earth. Give me a discriminating eye, that I may know the precious things that thou art growing; and throughout my life may I love the beautiful, and choose that which will make my life worthy of growth. Amen.

A verse to share “And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!” — Numbers 14:2

Robin Hood economics falls flat in debates Robin Hood is dead. Or at least seriously ailing. The politics of taking from the rich and giving to the poor — the politics that philosophers from Aristotle to James Madison dreaded — just doesn’t seem to be working as it used to. That’s not to say that the United States is about to give up on progressive taxation. With its graduated income tax, the American tax system is by some measures the most progressive in any advanced country. For a generation, the jousting between Republicans and Democrats has been waged within a pretty narrow range. The former want a top rate of 33 percent, the latter 42 percent. However, Hillary Clinton, evidently trying to win over wary Bernie Sanders fans, now says she wants to raise it to 65 percent. What’s apparent from the first presidential debate and the vice presidential debate is that the arguments for this Robin Hoodism aren’t persuasive. The two gimmicky catchphrases enunciated by the members of the Democratic presidential ticket seemed to land with a thud. “Trickle-down economics all over again,” Hillary Clinton characterized Donald Trump’s tax plan. “I call it trumped-up trickle-down because that’s exactly what it would be.” A clever phrase, but not one she repeated as

the debate went on. Tim Kaine came prepared with a novel formulation: “Do Michael you want a Barone ‘you’re hired’ president in Columnist Hillary Clinton, or do you want a ‘you’re fired’ president in Donald Trump?” Mike Pence congratulated him on his gimmicky turn of phrase, and viewers didn’t hear the line again. Kaine’s phrase at least had a somewhat contemporary reference point, Trump’s trademark line in his reality TV show. Clinton’s “trickle-down” political shorthand, with an ancient lineage, once triggered a more elaborate argument familiar and persuasive to many working-class Democratic voters. It would have been readily understood, for example, by the 125,000 people -- mostly men, mostly white, mostly union members -- who gathered in downtown Detroit’s Cadillac Square to hear Democratic presidential nominee John F. Kennedy speak on Labor Day in 1960. You don’t see rallies like that in the now-renamed Kennedy Square anymore. They believed that the high tax rates imposed by Franklin Roosevelt in the 1930s (top rate 63 percent)

and then by bipartisan consensus during World War II and left in place thereafter (top rate 91 percent) were a way of taking the outsize gains of a few corporate bosses and movie stars and distributing the proceeds to ordinary workingmen and their families. As it happens, as president, Kennedy didn’t make that argument at all. Recognizing that high tax rates encourage tax avoidance and discourage growth, he proposed what became the 1964 tax cuts, which were a model for former actor Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. The problem with “trickle-down” and “hire/fire” is that they are addressed to a segment of the electorate that no longer exists -- or at least is no longer a plausible target for Democratic candidates. One recent poll showed non-college-graduate white men voting only 17 percent for Hillary Clinton. Trump does better than that with Hispanics. Democrats were able to squeeze a few votes as the tribune of workers versus bosses in Midwestern target states in 2012 against Mitt Romney, the son of an auto executive. But that hasn’t been working against Trump. Downscale whites don’t see Trump as a boss who would fire rather than hire them. They see him as a champion who might some-

how fire the cultural elitists who look down on them as waste material in a “basket of deplorables,” vermin infected with “implicit racism.” Trump does arouse fears among many voters -- fears of impulsive foreign initiatives, trade wars, attacks on political enemies. Multiple provocative comments have provided some basis for those fears. But they don’t fear the specter that Clinton and Kaine sketched out, that his tax cuts would produce financial collapse. No serious economist -- liberal or conservative -- believes those Democrats’ preposterous theory that the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts led inexorably to the 2008 financial collapse. Clinton and Kaine seek to rally a coalition of blacks, Hispanics, young people and college-educated single women large enough to total 50 percent. Robin Hood economics, as they seemed to recognize as they dropped “trickle-down” and “hire/ fire,” doesn’t get them there.

Academic curtain threatens scholarship Back in the days of the Cold War between the Communist bloc of nations and the Western democracies, the Communists maintained pervasive restrictions around Eastern Europe that were aptly called an “iron curtain,” isolating the people in its bloc from the ideas of the West and physically obstructing their escape. One of the few things that could penetrate the “iron curtain” were ideas conveyed on radio waves. “The Voice of America” network broadcast to the peoples of the Soviet bloc, so that they were never completely isolated, and hearing only what the Communist dictatorships wanted them to hear. Ironically, despite the victory of democracy over dictatorship that brought the Cold War to an end, within American society there has slowly but steadily developed in too many of our own colleges and universities a set of restrictions on what can be said on campus, either by students or professors, or by outside speakers with views that contradict the political correctness of our time. There is no barbed wire around our campuses, nor armed guards keeping unwelcome ideas out. So there is no “iron curtain.” But

One effect is that many of the rising generation Thomas can go from Sowell e l e m e n tary school Columnist through postgraduate education at our leading colleges and universities without ever hearing a coherent presentation of a vision of the world that is fundamentally different from that of the political left. There are world class scholars who are unlikely to become professors at either elite or non-elite academic institutions because they do not march in the lockstep of the left. Some have been shouted down or even physically assaulted when they tried to give a speech that challenged the prevailing political correctness. Despite the fervor with which demographic “diversity” is proclaimed as a prime virtue -- without a speck of evidence as to its supposed benefits -- diversity of ideas gets no such respect. Students taught economics by Keynesian economists are unlikely to hear about the 1921 recession, with double-digit unem-

ployment, where the government did nothing, and unemployment fell by more than half, as the economy recovered on its own. Nor are they likely to learn how grossly misleading are many of the income statistics cited to justify the agenda of the left. As economist Alan Reynolds put it, many people “form very strong opinions about very weak statistics.” Students are unlikely to go through college without being assigned to read “The Communist Manifesto” -- often in more than one course -- while a classic like “The Federalist” is seldom assigned reading, even though it is a very readable and profound explanation of the principles on which the Constitution of the United States is based, written by three of the men who actually wrote the Constitution. On the racial front, landmark studies like “America in Black and White” by Stephen and Abigail Thernstrom are unlikely to see the light of day in courses or even on college bookstore shelves. While there is no “iron curtain” around our campuses, there is a curtain, and its eﬀects are dangerously close to the eﬀects produced by the “iron curtain” around the Soviet bloc.

What is lacking is anything like the Voice of America broadcasts to pierce the academic curtain. In an electronic age, there are plenty of sources from which forbidden facts and suppressed views can be beamed into the many electronic devices used by college students. There are many recorded speeches and interviews of outstanding thinkers, from the past and the present, with viewpoints diﬀerent from the prevailing groupthink on campus, and these can be presented directly to students with electronic devices. Someone from the real world beyond the ivy-covered enclaves would have to do it. And it is not yet clear who would do it or who would finance it. Perhaps some of those donors who have kept on writing checks to their alma maters, while the latter surrendered repeatedly to ideological intolerance, might consider such a project. Campus mobs could not shout down thousands of scattered iPads. Daily Corinthian columnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305.

William Meyer, Founder and CEO of Social Security Solutions recently testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Aging and we felt it worthy of summarizing for our readers. The purpose of the hearing was to examine the Government Accountability OďŹƒceâ€™s recent review of the extent to which Americans understand Social Security rules aďŹ€ecting their retirement benefits and the information the Social Security Administration provides applicants about claiming retirement benefits. We will recap in bullet points his testimony: It is important to note that every service our firm provides the Social Security Administration could provide. The rules are very complicated, and resources such as the SSA Program Operations Manual (used by employees) are not intuitive. Currently the Social Security Administration is providing neither the â€œrightâ€? nor â€œenoughâ€? information for someone to make an informed decision. No cumulative lifetime benefits are provided. This would better equip an individual in making the de-

cision to file early or later. All benefits a person is entitled to are not included in a personâ€™s statement. It excludes spousal benefits and survivor benefits. Putting all benefits together and showing trade-oďŹ€s between claiming strategies changes claiming behavior as more individuals better understand the merits of one strategy over another as they compare and evaluate their options. Currently, Social Security Administration rules do not allow agents to give advice on how to claim benefits. The policy states an agent can only give information, but no guidance. Note that claiming Social Security is the largest financial decision 99% of Americans make in their lifetimes. Americans are making an irrevocable decision with limited information, and no one at the Social Security Administration is allowed to help them explore their options. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in their June 2016 report, the Social Security Administrationâ€™s core operating budget has been reduced by 10% over the past six years, at a time when the numbers of Americanâ€™s needing services are at an all-time high. This has left

the Administration with too few resources to deliver essential services. My research shows that we can make someoneâ€™s retirement last between 2 to 10 years longer by maximizing Social Security. Choosing how and when to begin Social Security benefits is a huge decision and is the cornerstone for retirement security. The Social Security Administration could make some simple changes to help more Americans live better in retirement. And readers, this is why we founded Pillars, LLC, to assist Americans with this decision. We are truly passionate about teaching, reaching and assisting individuals in making this basically permanent decision. There are currently six, licensed National Social Security Advisors in the Mississippi area â€“ 3 in Biloxi, one in Ridgeland and 2 in Corinth that are trained and seasoned to assist you with this decision. You can contact Pillars LLC at 601-954-0699 or visit their website at www.pillarsllc.com for further information. Roy and Diane are both National Social Security Advisors and Roy is a former CPA of 40 years.

Hurricane’s blow less than feared Associated Press

CHARLESTON, S.C. — A weakening Hurricane Matthew lashed Georgia and the Carolinas on Saturday in what appeared to be the last leg of its march up the East Coast, leaving in its wake millions of Americans relieved that one of the most fearsome storms on record in the U.S. wasn’t that bad after all. The hurricane was blamed for at least 10 deaths in the U.S., including that of a 68-year-old Georgia man who died when two trees fell on his home. And hundreds were left dead in Matthew’s wake in Haiti. But in many places along the Southeast coast, the damage consisted mostly of flooded streets, blown-down signs and awnings, flattened trees and power outages. As the storm passed, many people were already cleaning up, reopening their businesses or hitting the beach. The power started coming back on. And all three major theme parks in Orlando, Florida, including Walt Disney World, were up and running.

Trump rejects GOP calls to quit, vows to press on Associated Press

NEW YORK — A defiant Donald Trump insisted Saturday he would “never” abandon his White House bid, rejecting a growing backlash from Republican leaders nationwide who disavowed the GOP’s presidential nominee after he was caught on tape bragging about predatory advances on women. Trump’s own running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, declared he could neither condone nor defend Trump’s remarks in a 2005 videotape that sparked panic inside Trump Tower and throughout the Republican Party with early voting already underway exactly one month before Election Day. “We pray for his family,” Pence said in a statement after canceling a Wisconsin appearance scheduled with House Speaker Paul Ryan and the Republican National Committee chairman, Reince Priebus, both of whom had condemned Trump’s remarks the day before but stopped short of withdrawing support altogether. The furor places enormous pressure on Trump to try to tamp down a crisis sure to spill into Sunday night’s presidential debate. But even as the fallout deepened fractures in a party already torn about Trump, many remained loyal to the political outsider. Wisconsin voter Jean Stanley donned a shirt proclaiming “Wisconsin Women Love Trump” and called Ryan a “traitor” for denouncing the presidential contender’s comments. “He’s a real human,” Stanley said

of the New York businessman, surrounded by Trump supporters at the Wisconsin rally where he was set to appear before the videotape emerged. Ryan and Priebus did not join a chorus of GOP oﬃceholders from Utah to Alabama to New Hampshire who decided the former reality television star’s bombshell was too much to take. More than a dozen Republicans — senators, congressmen and sitting governors — announced Saturday they would not vote for Trump. Among them was the party’s 2008 nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain, who had stood by Trump even after the billionaire questioned whether the former POW should be considered a war hero because he got “captured.” “He was not my choice, but as a past nominee, I thought it important I respect the fact that Donald Trump won a majority of the delegates by the rules our party set,” McCain said in a statement. But given Trump’s “behavior this week,” McCain said, it is “impossible to continue to oﬀer even conditional support for his candidacy.” Many went farther and called on Trump to quit the race altogether. “I thought supporting the nominee was the best thing for our country and our party,” Alabama Rep. Martha Roby said in a statement. “Now, it is abundantly clear that the best thing for our country and our party is for Trump to step aside and allow a responsible, respectable Republican to lead the ticket.”

MSU’s CAVS continues on all-electric Navy ship STARKVILLE — Researchers in Mississippi State University’s Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems will continue to work on designs for an all-electric Navy ship after recently receiving a five-year, approximately $2.5 million grant. The grant money is part of a $35 million grant awarded to Florida State University by the Oﬃce of Naval Research. Florida State will oversee and coordinate research eﬀorts of the Electric Ship Research and Development Consortium, of which MSU is a founding member. The University of South Carolina, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Purdue University, Virginia Tech and the University of Texas make up the consortium along with MSU and FSU. Members of the consortium have spent 13 years on electric ship research, with the new $35 million grant continuing that work for another five years. “The consortium is a collection of universities interested in helping the Navy fit the most advanced electric power system on the smallest surface ship that they can,” CAVS Associate Director Mike Mazzola said. “At the end of the day, that’s really the technical challenge we face – power density.” The Navy built an allelectric Zumwalt class destroyer, but it is significantly bigger than the vessel it was meant to replace, which Mazzola said shows the need for more research in order to implement futuristic power and control systems while maintaining Navy speed and defense standards. MSU researchers have made substantial contributions to the consortium research in the areas of electric cabling and controls. Sherif Abdelwahed, an associate professor of electrical and computer

engineering in MSU’s Bagley College of Engineering, is working to design an intelligent control system that can move megawatts of energy to needed ship systems and also quickly adapt to different operating conditions and scenarios. “The ship can go from cruising to battle mode to radio mode. Each of these has its own requirements,” Abdelwahed said. “The load can change dramatically because of the different modes of operation, especially the battlefield mode. Intelligent control architecture will be able to predict and react to these changes and make the system work as efficiently as possible and meet the requirements of reliability and effectiveness by using the resources that are critical to the ship.” The control systems are designed to be semiautonomous and automatically adapt to changing situations. Mazzola said the Navy is looking to have an advanced electric ship ready to handle next-generation radar, rail guns and lasers that are targeted for completion by 2030. With Pascagoula home to Ingalls Shipbuilding, a leading builder of Naval ships, Mazzola said it is likely Mississippians will be the ones to build an allelectric destroyer when the time comes. “Mississippi is one of the nation’s top shipbuilding destinations, and it’s one reason why Mississippi State University is interested in being part of the Electric Ship Research and Development Consortium,” Mazzola said. “We know that our state will be building electric ships in the future. We’ve already been building and overhauling ships with substantial improvements to their electrical systems, including electrical propulsion.”

Lawsuit: Stop home modeled on stadium IOWA CITY, Iowa — Fitting tribute to Iowa football or Hawkeyesore? That’s what a judge must decide. Angry neighbors have filed a lawsuit against the Iowa City Board of Adjustment for allowing a couple to proceed with their plan to build a 7,500-square-foot home that will resemble the University of Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium. Cedar Rapids television station KCRG reports that the lawsuit filed Wednesday by the Neighbors of Manville Heights Association requests an injunction to block construction of the home and for the repeal of the city’s building permit allowing it. The house Reed and Sandy Carlson plan to build would look like the Hawkeyes’ 87-year-old stadium, complete with brick siding and a replica of the press box.

Homeless woman braves floodwater SAVANNAH, Ga. — Floodwaters several feet deep submerged a long stretch of President Street, which links downtown Savannah to the highway to Tybee Island. Cassandra Coleman and her boyfriend were stopped in her car at the impasse Saturday morning when they saw a woman wading through floodwaters waters up to her neck. “We thought she was going to fall. She kept

staggering through,” Coleman said. The shivering woman made it to the water’s edge. A bystander handed her a sheet, which she wrapped around her neck. “I’m homeless,” said the woman, who identified herself only as Valerie. “I’ve got nine kids but I couldn’t evacuate with them.” She said she weathered the storm under a tent near an overpass that crosses the low-lying road. But then floodwaters washed it away. “It wiped out our tent, our tarp and washed away all our blankets and clothes,” she said.

Walrus start arriving near Alaska village ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Pacific walrus are beginning to come ashore near a remote community on Alaska’s northwest coast in what’s become an annual marine mammal phenomenon caused by a warming climate. The massive animals have gathered by the thousands each fall on a barrier island near the Inupiat Eskimo village of Point Lay in recent years. Last year, 35,000 walrus hauled out on the rocky beach. Villagers notified the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Friday that the walrus have begun arriving and that about 1,000 are gathered on the island so far, said spokeswoman Andrea Medeiros. Walrus prefer resting on sea ice to look out for predators such

as polar bears. But in 2007, they began coming ashore on the northwest Alaska coast because of receding summer sea ice as Arctic temperatures have warmed. Walrus are considered a major subsistence food for Point Lay residents.

Report shows rise in asylum seekers SAN DIEGO — Hundreds of thousands of people have sought asylum along the U.S.Mexico border in the last two years, a dramatic increase that shows how migrants have changed from mostly Mexican men trying to evade capture to more Central American families who often turn themselves in, a report for the federal government shows. Asylum seekers, many of them fleeing drug-fueled violence south of the border, peaked in 2014 at 170,000, nearly triple the 63,000 who arrived the previous year. Before 2012, there were fewer than 30,000 a year. In the 2015 fiscal year, the number declined to 140,000 people, according to the report by the Institute for Defense Analyses, a federally funded research organization that was tapped to help develop new measures of border security. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report from a government official involved in border issues.

Former state worker faces meth charges GULFPORT — A former employee at the state Department of Marine Resources and another person face federal charges of meth distribution in Jackson County. The U.S. Attorney’s Office filed the charge in a bill of information in Gulfport on Thursday against Elizabeth “Libby” Denyer and Dustin Powell. The Sun Herald reports Denyer worked as a contract employee at the state department from April 2009 through March 2012 and is the daughter of Ocean Springs Alderman Greg Denyer. She later became a part-time administrative assistant at the University of Southern Mississippi’s office in Ocean Springs while pursuing an accounting degree. The charging document alleges Denyer and Powell conspired to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamines from August 2014 through Thursday. The charge does not specify an amount of meth. In April, a federal grand jury indicted Denyer, Powell and Michael Worrell on related charges alleging the trio was responsible for the distribution of more than 50 grams of meth.

Child photographed in hospital shower GULFPORT — Police have arrested a hospital worker accused of taking photographs of a young patient while the child

was in the shower. Police said Friday that 26-year-old Travis James McMurray, of Gulfport, was arrested Thursday on a charge of secretly photographing for lewd purposes. Additional warrants were issued after police determined two other children have been identified as victims. McMurray works at Memorial Behavioral Health, which offers inpatient and partial inpatient hospitalization at its offices on U.S. 49. According to Memorial Hospital at Gulfport’s website, employees counsel adults, adolescents and children “to help them and their families resolve and manage emotional and behavioral problems.” McMurray’s position at the center is not clear. The Sun Herald reports McMurray is being held at the Harrison County jail on a $75,000 bond.

Authorities seeking vandals of cemetery LAUREL — Authorities are searching for the person who vandalized tombstones at the Hickory Grove Cemetery in Laurel. Authorities said dozens of tombstones were knocked over Thursday, and the person responsible could face vandalism charges. Barbara Monk’s mother and father-in-law’s tombstones were damaged. She tells WDAM-TV says she doesn’t know how the person who did the damage could close their eyes at night, knowing what they’ve done. She says losing a loved one is hard enough, but

finding damage at their resting place makes matters even worse. Alan Monk says he’s angry about what happened to his parent’s tombstones and wants the vandals brought to justice.

Teacher faces probe after dragging video GREENVILLE — A Mississippi teacher faces investigations after a video shows her dragging a student by the hair at Greenville High School. The Delta DemocratTimes reports Kesha Williams, a parent of a Greenville High sophomore who is not the student recorded, posted two videos on Facebook Thursday. The video that shows a teacher dragging a student by the hair across the floor of a gymnasium had received 3.9 million views by Friday evening. A second video appears to show the teacher striking or pushing the student on the head with a cup that the student had picked up. Williams tells the newspaper that her daughter, a Greenville sophomore, received videos of the actions recorded sometime on or after Sept. 21 from another student. “When I saw the video it just made me mad, period,” Williams said. “I just took it upon myself to post it on Facebook just so it can get across.” Mississippi Department of Education spokeswoman Jean Cook confirmed to The Associated Press that a teacher and student are pictured in the video.

Of all the descriptions that fit Commerce Bank, “locally owned” is among the staﬀ’s favorites. “We hope that sets us apart, because the money that we generate from our revenue sources gets invested back into Alcorn County,” said Frank Davis, the president and CEO. Located at 306 South Cass Street, the only locally owned and controlled financial institution saw its total assets top $100 million in 2015, and the figure currently sits at about $105 million. It holds about 14 percent, or $91 million, of the county’s overall deposit base of $660 million as of June 30. The bank launched in 1999 with $4 million in capital. “A lot of our senior management and board of directors were folks that were involved with National Bank of Commerce

of Corinth,” said Davis. “That entity sold to Trustmark Bank in the spring of 1997. Shortly thereafter, the board and senior management got together and decided they wanted to start another locally owned and controlled institution, because they felt Corinth and Alcorn County needed an institution like that.” The bank began at 301 South Cass Street as Commerce National Bank with 11 full-time employees. In less than two years, it needed more space and moved across the street to the former ACE Power oﬃce. It became Commerce Bank in 2014 and today employs 26 full-time and five part-time workers. The bank believes service has been key to its success. “A lot of financial institutions would tell you that, but it is the relationships that we build and the ability to be able

“Our loan demand has stayed strong, which has allowed us to continue to grow,” said Davis. “Our deposit base, as well, has continued to remain strong. We feel that Corinth and Alcorn County is in a very good position to move forward.” In addition to Davis, the board of directors members are Hull Davis, chairman; Bobby Roberts, vice chairman; John C. Stanley, secretary; Dr. R.H. Kay; Randy Long; David Palmer; Joe Vann; John Clayton Stanley; and Greg Williams. The bank’s net income for 2015 was $1.754 million, rising from $1.539 million in 2014. Earnings per share were $42.06, up from $36.91 in 2014. The bank closed 2015 with capital of $12.14 million. “We’re on track to have another great year and look forward to serving Alcorn County for many years to come,” said Davis.

to tailor our products to what the customer needs, whether that is a small business or an individual,” said Davis, who is a member of the Corinth School District Board of Trustees. Commerce Bank remained profitable during the Great Recession years. “We were able to weather the storms because of our strong capital position and our conservative lending policies,” said Davis. “A lot of other financial institutions, as the economy began to go negative, they tightened up on their lending policies. We stayed the same. We understand the people we’re doing business with and what their needs are, and so we didn’t have to change our lending policies during the downturn in the economy.” The bank is optimistic about the future and the potential for the community and itself to grow.
