Family honored as March Bread of Life Food of Dimes ambassadors Ministry seeks help BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

The journey of Nixon “Daniel” Dodd Jr. of Corinth will be celebrated during 7th annual Elm City Legends event in New Haven, Connecticut, where he and his family will be honored as the March of Dimes Ambassador Family. Born premature on April 14, 2009, in Danbury, Connecticut, Daniel weighed only 1 pound, 14 ounces and was at 24 weeks gestation. He was transferred to YaleNew Haven Hospital where he received care for 85 days. Parents Nick and Kimberly Dodd were living in St. Louis,

Missouri at the time, but were visiting relatives in Connecticut when his mother went into premature labor. The family moved to Corinth in 2011 after Nick Sr. finished Optometry school and began working at Dodd Eye Clinic. “We hope to continue to share the story of Daniel’s birth as well as raise awareness for the March of Dimes,” said Nick Dodd. Chosen as this year’s Ambassador family, Daniel will be celebrated as his parents tell his story and accomplishments through the years. The family was selected based on the dedication they

demonstrated to their son through his premature birth. Hosted by the March of Dimes, the gathering will take place on Thursday, Nov. 13 at Anthony’s Ocean View in New Haven, Connecticut. The purpose of Legends is to honor accomplished individuals from the Greater New Haven area that have contributed to the March of Dimes community. Seven individuals will be honored during the evening, which will include a meal, live and silent auctions and the Fund the Mission initiative. The leading nonprofit orPlease see MARCH | 2A

One person can make a difference. Bread of Life Food Ministry Director Tim Alvis believes just that in his mission to see people fed both physically and spiritually. Bread of Life is looking for people who want to have an impact in helping others. Since the ministry partnered with Tate Baptist Church in 2007, 18,663 individuals have been helped. “The need is much greater during the holidays,” said Al-

vis. “We have to make things stretch as far as we can.” Each Thursday at 10 a.m. at Tate Baptist, Bread of Life delivers not only food but the word of God. One-on-one counseling is also provided by volunteers each week. “They get to hear the gospel at least twice before receiving the food,” said Alvis. Bread of Life, which falls under the Alcorn Baptist Association, requires no referrals or identification. Please see MINISTRY | 2A

‘Mr. Henco’ shares life story in book BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Many Mid-South residents remember Tom Hendrix’s enthusiastic invitation to visit Henco Furniture because “it’s worth the drive.” Now, reflecting on many decades of entrepreneurship in his memoir, he assures the book is worth the read. With the hope of inspiring others, Hendrix details his climb from the family farm 5 miles east of Bethel Springs, Tenn., to a furniture business bringing in a million monthly in sales. “We lived in basement apartments, did without and sacrificed for eight years before the sun peeped through the clouds,” said Hendrix, who is 82. “We had started two businesses from scratch that became national in scope.” His time on the farm during the Depression years had a

big role in shaping the man he would become. “It was tough times, and [my father’s] barn burned right in the middle of it, burned up everything he had harvested that year, plus his car and what have you, so we just started out in the hole,” said Hendrix. “But my father, with a third-grade education, was a fantastic teacher. He had some benchmark things he thought a successful life was built around. One of the things he was just really focused on was he wanted all his children to see work as an honorable thing to do. It’s the way we do our good in life. The other thing he did was he wanted us to take responsibility for our life — be responsible for every decision you make. I got the basic framework of a successful life sitting there at that kitchen table or working with him digging the ditch.”

The middle of nine children, two of whom died in infancy, Hendrix attended the University of Tennessee, paying his own way by going door-to-door selling bibles during the summertime. “We would start knocking on those doors at 8 in the morning and knock till 8 that evening, six days a week, all the way through the summer,” he said. “Every time we knocked on the door, it was a lesson in human nature. It was a lesson in communication, developing empathy for people, being able to communicate with all the different kinds of people out there. I learned that that was worth more than my college studies when I became an entrepreneur and started working with truck drivers, manufacturing people, office people, accountants, a

“People are welcome to attend every Thursday for the spiritual food, but they are eligible for the physical aspect every 60 days,” said the director. Exceptions are often made in emergency situations, according to Alvis. Of the 5,876 families helped over the seven years, 337 people have given their life to Christ. “God has put together this vital ministry,” said Alvis. “Not only do we get to share the word and see people come to know the Lord, but the added thing is we get to build relationships in the community.” Food is distributed in three different categories. There is an amount for a family of 1-2, 3-4 and 5-plus, according to Alvis. The ministry sees around 30-35 families per week. “Right now, our biggest need is canned food items,” he said. “We have a steady increase and it grows from week to week.” Donations are always needed in the constant ministry. “We need continued support and awareness,” said Alvis. “A lot of us do not think about this type of thing until the holidays … this ministry never stops.” (To donate to Bread of Life, contact Alvis at 731645-2806 or Tate Baptist at 662-286-2935.)

one. I encourage everyone to donate to this worthy cause and make a difference in someone’s life this Christmas.” This year organizers have set a $25,000 goal for the fundraising effort to support the program. “We are extremely pleased to be able to play a part in helping provide food for the needy in our community, especially during the holiday season,” said Reece Terry, Daily Corinthian publisher. “The Christmas Basket giveaway is a leap of faith for the Corinth Rotary Club and the Daily Corinthian. Each year we purchase and distribute approximately $22,000 in groceries before the donations come in.” In addition to food products, each giveaway will also include paper towels provided by Kimberly Clark. “Without the generosity of those who contribute to the Christmas Basket Fund, this effort simply would not be possible,” added Terry. “We are especially grateful to Randy Long and everyone at Long Distribution and Allen Lee at Corinth Brick. Each year Randy provides the food for the baskets at cost. Long also provides boxes for the packing at no charge. Allen and Corinth Brick help with transportation and provide us with a forklift for loading and unloading.” Applications for assistance from the program will be accepted now through Nov. 19. An application form appears on page 3 of today’s newspaper and will appear in the paper daily. Forms may be dropped off at the Daily Corinthian office at 1800 South Harper Road from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Forms are also available at the newspaper office. Applications may also be mailed to Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 10, Corinth, MS 38835. Mailed applications must be postmarked by November 19. Those approved to receive a basket will be notified prior to the December 6 basket distribution day. Donations to assist with the effort can also be dropped by the newspaper office or mailed to the address above. Donations may be made in memory or in honor of an individual or group and are a great way to recognize or remember someone special during the holiday season.

Today in History Today is Sunday, Nov. 9, the 313th day of 2014. There are 52 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 9, 1989, communist East Germany threw open its borders, allowing citizens to travel freely to the West; joyous Germans danced atop the Berlin Wall.

On this date: In 1620, the passengers and crew of the Mayflower sighted Cape Cod. In 1872, fire destroyed nearly 800 buildings in Boston. In 1918, it was announced that Germany’s Kaiser Wilhelm II would abdicate; he then fled to the Netherlands. In 1938, Nazis looted and burned synagogues as well as Jewish-owned stores and houses in Germany and Austria in a pogrom that became known as “Kristallnacht.” In 1953, Welsh author-poet Dylan Thomas died in New York at age 39. In 1963, twin disasters struck Japan as some 450 miners were killed in a coal-dust explosion, and about 160 people died in a train crash. In 1965, the great Northeast blackout occurred as a series of power failures lasting up to 131⁄2 hours left 30 million people in seven states and part of Canada without electricity. In 1967, a Saturn V rocket carrying an unmanned Apollo spacecraft blasted off from Cape Kennedy on a successful test flight. In 1970, former French President Charles de Gaulle died at age 79. In 1976, the U.N. General Assembly approved resolutions condemning apartheid in South Africa, including one characterizing the white-ruled government as “illegitimate.” In 1988, former Attorney General John N. Mitchell, a major figure in the Watergate scandal, died in Washington at age 75. In 1999, with fireworks, concerts and a huge party at the landmark Brandenburg Gate, Germany celebrated the 10th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Ten years ago: Attorney General John Ashcroft and Commerce Secretary Don Evans resigned; they were the first members of the Cabinet to leave as President George W. Bush headed from reelection into his second term. Kenny Chesney won the Country Music Association album of the year award for “When the Sun Goes Down” as well as entertainer of the year. Five years ago: The Dow Jones industrial average rose 203.52, or 2 percent, to 10,226.94, its highest finish since Oct. 3, 2008, as a falling dollar boosted prices for gold, oil and other commodities. Germany celebrated the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

national sales force.” And his mentor there was a huge influence, teaching him to sell with honor and no trickery. Hendrix founded Nasco, a fundraising company, and would eventually go on to launch Henco Fundraising in 1968. Along the way have been assorted other enterprises, including running a 10,000-tree peach orchard and raising emus and hogs. Henco Furniture would follow in 1996, becoming a small sliver of his life but bringing him the most notoriety thanks to those TV commercials. “I had never had a furniture store,” said Hendrix, who came out of retirement for the venture. “I didn’t know anything about retail. I knew nothing about the industry. I asked myself the question: Is this worth a slice of your life?” He felt the answer was yes if he and his wife, Sherry, could put their stamp on the business and make it a unique experience. He decided: “I want it to be so much fun the kids will cry when they have to go home. And if we can create that, that will be worth a slice of my life.” Deciding to learn all they could about the business, they hit the road in their RV, visiting 10 of the country’s top furniture

Tom Hendrix works on the family farm in rural McNairy County near Bethel Springs, Tenn., at age 12. stores to pick the brains of those who built them into successes. “Most of them would say, ‘Man, do you realize what you’re getting into,’” Hendrix recalled. They returned to Selmer with a notebook full of tips. “We had the property in the Selmer Industrial Park, not on Main Street,” said Mrs. Hendrix. “We knew that it needed to create a wow factor for folks to pass these other furniture stores to come and visit us.”

While luring customers with ice cream desserts at the Whistle Stop Cafe, they made every effort to keep them with an extra helping of kindness. “We wanted every employee to buy into the fact of creating raving fans in the neighborhood,” said Hendrix. “I said it’s not just about the service — everybody’s got one of those — our service needs to be over the top. Look for ways to do something they don’t expect. We taught that philosophy.” With a goal of help-

ing people better understand the free enterprise system, he created the Tom E. Hendrix Chair of Excellence in Free Enterprise at the University of Tennessee - Martin, the first chair of excellence in the UT system to be endowed for $1 million. With a drive to keep contributing, most of his current retirement has focused on writing his memoir, which he hopes will be a useful tool for others. “I wanted to put the best that I have learned in 55 years as an entre-

preneur into this book to be helpful to people,” said Hendrix. “I want people to say, ‘That’s a good idea — I can use that.’ A good idea at the right time is a treasure.” (Hendrix will have a book signing for “Worth the Drive” at the Corinth Artist Guild Gallery at 609 Fillmore on Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The book is also available in Corinth at KC’s Espresso, Tull Brothers and Home Banking Company. It is available online at mrhenco.com.)

Wreaths Across America gets underway BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

American Legion Post 6 will not forget. The sacrifice and dedication of veterans is forever etched into the minds of organization members. Post 6 will honor veterans who have passed away with its annual Wreaths Across America project on Saturday, Dec. 13 at the Corinth National Cemetery. “Our ceremony will be in sync with over 1,000 other ceremonies taking

place at the same time all over the country,” said American Legion Ladies Auxiliary President and Wreath Coordinator Carlean Parker. The ceremony to lay wreaths, which also includes the Ladies Auxiliary, Sons of American Legion and Legion Riders, is slated for 11 a.m. The wreaths are a traditional live green with a red bow. Cost is $15 per wreath with each sponsorship tax deductible. Specific grave orders can

also be placed and are not limited to the Corinth National Cemetery. “There is so much honor and respect displayed during the laying of wreaths,” said Parker. “I encourage everyone to attend because it is an excellent way for people to see first hand the important part the military and veterans play in the freedom we enjoy today.” Last week, “Rides for Wreaths” raised $500 for the project. “It was cold, but rid-

ers from many organizations turned out to brave the weather for a worthy cause,” said Parker. “Too many times we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life and we forget how we got to this point. We are still a free nation and it is because of soldiers past and present.” Parker will be at Veteran’s Day Stew on Tuesday at the American Legion for those who would like to order a wreath. Currently, there are 7,600 graves at the

Corinth National Cemetery. At least a quarter of the graves are marked unknown, according to Parker. “It breaks my heart that there is a family somewhere who has no closure to the death of a soldier who gave their life fighting for our country,” said Parker. (For more information contact Parker at 662-462-3443 or carleanparker@yahoo.com or Lisa Lambert at 662286-6000.)

Community event celebrates downtown Corinth BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth is ready to celebrate. The city gets its chance Thursday, Nov. 20 at Farmers & Merchants Bank. Celebrate Corinth gets started at 6 p.m. in downtown. Proceeds collected from the event go directly to benefit historic downtown. “Celebrate Corinth is considered one of the most fun social events of the holiday season,” said Main Street Corinth Director Taylor Coombs. “It will be an evening of great music and fabulous dishes.” Local restaurants and caterers will be set up for individuals to sample food. Over a hundred silent auction items will also be available for purchase. A new raffle item for the 12th annual event is a one carat pair of diamond

earrings set in 14K white gold from Clausel’s Jewelry. Raffle tickets are $10. Cost to attend Celebrate Corinth is $20. “All of the silent auction items will be displayed at the bank lobby a week before the event,” said Coombs. “People are welcome to stop by and check out all the items donated by our businesses.” Those who would like to support Celebrate Corinth can do so in a couple of ways. Items can still be donated for the silent auction. “All they have to do is fill out a donation form and fax it back to Main Street,” said Coombs. “We will be happy to pick up the item.” Sponsorships are also available for $75. Individuals or businesses who sponsor receive two tickets to the event and also have their name listed on

a sponsor board. “The success of Celebrate Corinth depends on the support and involve-

ment of sponsors,” said Coombs. (For more information about Celebrate Corinth

Corinth, Miss.

The Kumbaya Temptation Nov. 4 was a national vote of no confidence in Barack Obama. The one issue on which all Republicans agreed, and all ran, was the rejection of Obama. And by fleeing from him, some even refusing to admit they voted for him, Democrats, too, were conceding that this election was about Obama, and that they were not to blame for his failures. Yet, though this was a referendum on Obama and his policies, and though Pat both were repudiated, some pundits Buchanan are claiming that America voted for an “end to gridlock” and a new era of comColumnist promise and conciliation. How so? If the American people were truly saying that, why did they vote to turn the Senate over to Mitch McConnell? Why did they vote to send more Republicans to strengthen the hand of John Boehner and those in the House who had “shut down” the government? Did America vote for the GOP to go back to Washington and work with Obama? Or did America reward the GOP for promising to return and continue to oppose Obama’s policies? What Republicans are hearing now is the siren song of a Beltway elite that just got its clock cleaned, an elite that revels in Republican defeats, but is ever at hand to give guidance and counsel to Republicans when they win. And that counsel is always the same: Time to put the acrimony behind us. Time to reach out and take the extended hand of the defeated. Time come together to end gridlock and move forward. And invariably this means move in the same old direction, if a bit more slowly. Consider several areas where the kumbaya temptation is strongest. The first is the rising clamor from Corporate America for the newly empowered Republicans to grant Obama fast track authority and support his TransPacific Partnership Agreement. Fast track would be a unilateral surrender of Congressional authority, yielding all power to amend trade treaties to Obama, and leaving Congress with a yes or no vote on whatever treaty he brings home. This would be a Republican ratification of the policies of Bush I and II that produced $10 trillion in trade deficits, hollowed out our manufacturing base, and sent abroad the jobs of millions of Reagan Democrats. Globalization carpet-bombed Middle America and killed the Nixon-Reagan coalition that used to give the GOP 49-state landslides. The party should re-embrace economic patriotism, stand up to Japanese protectionists and Chinese currency manipulators, and put American workers first, ahead of corporate outsourcers. Immigration reform is a second area where the GOP is being urged, even by some of its own, to compromise. In return for Obama agreeing to improve border security, Republicans will be asked to go along with amnesty for millions here illegally. But did any Republican run on amnesty? Is the nation demanding amnesty? If not, then who is? Answer: Corporate America, Obama, La Raza and the editorial pages of newspapers that routinely brand Republicans as xenophobic bigots. Republicans should pass a stand-alone border-security bill, and then dare Senate Democrats to filibuster it and dare the president to veto it. If Obama declares an executive amnesty for five million illegals, as he threatens, he can credibly be charged will defying the manifest will of the nation and usurping Congressional power. A third temptation will be Obama’s request for Congress to formally authorize the war he has begun in Syria and Iraq. If the GOP signs on, the party will own that war going into 2016, as it owned the Iraq war going into 2006, when it lost both houses of Congress. That the Islamic State is brutal, barbaric and antiAmerican is undeniable. But its occupation of northern Syria and western Iraq is the problem primarily of Syria and Iraq, and their neighbors in Lebanon, Turkey, Iran, Kurdistan, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. This is, first and foremost, their war, not ours. Before succumbing to the kumbaya temptation, Republicans should ask themselves not how to find common ground with Barack, but how to get America out of this Slough of Despond. And anyone who thinks last Tuesday was a call to compromise with Obama has either an ax to grind or a serious hearing problem. (Patrick J.

A verse to share “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” Psalms 14:1

Grisham’s novels take on weighty issues STARKVILLE — Author John Grisham’s progression from master fiction writer – a veritable writing machine cranking out summer read blockbusters that Sid Salter often get made into Columnist A-list movies – to a far more serious writer is a tale made of the stuff that moved the affable author from small town lawyer and back-bench Mississippi legislator to a literary brand. Grisham’s literary pace and timing has always been there – like a young baseball pitcher’s fastball. Legal thrillers, yes, but damn good legal thrillers with more jerky, unexpected twists and turns than a low-budget carnival ride were what his readers came to love and came to expect. Not only was Grisham’s literary pace engaging and compelling, but so was his work ethic. Think about it. After “A Time to Kill” in 1989, Grisham missed publishing a book in 1990. But beginning in 1991 and continuing through 2014, Grisham has knocked out a stag-

gering 32 books over the next 23 years. In 2001, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013, Grisham wrote two books a year. In 2012, Grisham wrote three books – including one of the finest books of his career. “Calico Joe,” Grisham’s paean to the game of baseball, is a masterpiece to those who played the game at any level. After reading all of Grisham’s books, this one remains my favorite. The lovely “little” book drew this praise from The Washington Post reviewer: “John Grisham’s legal thrillers are dense and hefty, full of twists and turns and tension. His latest novel, “Calico Joe,” is not like that at all. It’s a sweet, simple story, a fable really. And like all fables, it has a moral: Good can come out of evil; it’s never too late to confess your sins and seek forgiveness.” Grisham’s “little” books – “Bleachers,” “Playing for Pizza,” and the non-fiction “The Innocent Man” revealed that Grisham was more than a crank-it-out legal fiction writer. In particular, “The Innocent Man” was a brave, gutsy take on a subject the subject of the death penalty in America. In “Innocent Man”

Grisham’s work reads more like that of a journalist than a novelist. And perhaps that’s what fans of Grisham’s novels can see in his last two books – the inevitable creep of heavier weight into his work. There’s no loss of entertainment value implied in that statement: To be sure, Grisham’s increasing willingness to take on hard, painful issues only increases the anticipation and the satisfaction for readers. In “Sycamore Row”, the return trip to “A Time to Kill” territory in fictional Clanton in Ford County, Mississippi, Grisham returns to familiar themes about small town racism and intransigence. Can a black woman inherit a white man’s veritable pile money under a contested will when a majority white jury is making the decision? As readers will remember in the trial for Carl Lee Hailey’s life in “A Time to Kill”, questions of race are always hard in Ford County, Mississippi and the passage of 25 years doesn’t really change much in that equation. Grisham’s most recent book has precious little to do with race. It’s about class and economic strife. It’s about Big Coal versus

Appalachian poor people. It’s about big corporations with limitless resources and little people with almost none. From Wall Street faltering, recessions, layoffs, furloughs and internships to backwoods crystal meth, spousal abuse and abject poverty, the book is a rather brutal examination of parts of American culture that are all too real. And, at the core, “Gray Mountain” is about the choices we make as a society and as individuals in the conflicts that develop where those broad groups coexist. Reviewers in the nation’s major newspapers have been almost effusive in praise for Grisham’s last two novels. Last month, the Washington Post’s Patrick Anderson wrote: “Grisham makes his characters all too real, but the heart of his story is his relentless case against Big Coal. We all know something about the plight of miners, but we are unlikely to have encountered the realities of their lives in the depth provided here.

Lamar Co., Pat Harrison dispute in court BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. Capitol Dome

JACKSON — Mississippi has three water development districts, all charged with protecting and conserving water resources and promoting economic development. How long they conduct business as usual depends on how the Mississippi Supreme Court determines whether Lamar County must still pay for operation of nine water parks regardless of its decision to leave the Pat Harrison Waterway District. At issue is about $18.9 million. The waterway district argues Lamar County has a contractual obligation to maintain the water parks “into perpetuity.” Pat Harrison lawyers say if the law is followed, Lamar County must pay $18.9 million to withdraw. Until it does, Lamar County remains a member of the district. The Pat Harrison Waterway District has eight contracts with the federal government, under which it is responsible for maintaining dams and other improvements and operating eight waterways and

their accompanying water parks. The water parks offer beaches, swimming, boating, fishing and recreational options. “The idea that these eight federal contracts, each of which require operation and maintenance of specific flood control structures and recreational facilities, do not impose ‘contractual obligations’ defies common sense,” Neville H. Boschert, attorney for Pat Harrison, said in briefs. The waterway districts, which were created in the 1960s, are supported by their member counties. The districts receive no state money. Pat Harrison has 15 member counties, running from Lauderdale in east Mississippi to Jackson County on the coast. A state judge ruled in favor of Lamar County in 2013. Lamar County argued its financial obligation to the waterway district ended when supervisors voted 3-1 on Sept. 6, 2011, to leave the district. Lamar County was paying about $380,000 a year to Pat Harrison. “Lamar County has not yet paid its full portion

of the district’s liabilities, obligations, and indebtedness,” Boschert said. The Supreme Court’s decision could decide the obligations of two other counties — Jasper and Forrest — that voted to severe their association with the district. Jasper County officials say they were paying $168,000 a year to the district. Forrest County was paying about $460,000 a year. County officials in the other waterway districts are watching the case. Many contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars annually to waterway district operations. The Attorney General’s Office has sided with the waterway district. Assistant Attorney General Harold E. Pizzetta III wrote in briefs that state law requires a county wanting to leave a district to pay its portion of district’s bond debt, contractual obligations and liabilities. “The state of Mississippi has a keen interest in ensuring that the portion of the withdrawal statute which protects the continued financial viability

of the PHWD is correctly interpreted and faithfully applied,” Pizzetta said. R. David Kaufman, one of the county’s attorneys, said Lamar County had agreed to pay some money to Pat Harrison — just not what the district wants. “For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, the PHWD had more than $7 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand to finance its operations. Suffice it to say that the district is healthy financially and will almost certainly not shut down because of Lamar County’s withdrawal which occurred almost three years ago,” Kaufman said. Kaufman said the district has discretion over how much it spends each year. “It is completely misleading ... to suggest that the citizens of the state will be deprived of the district if Lamar County does not honor its ‘contractual obligations.’ Those are obligations of the district, not Lamar County,” he said.

Court strikes down immigration law PHOENIX — Arizona’s frustrations over federal enforcement of the state’s border with Mexico spawned a movement nearly a decade ago to have local police confront illegal immigration. Now, the state’s experiment in immigration enforcement is falling apart in the courts. A ruling Friday that struck down the state’s 2005 immigrant smuggling law marks the latest in a string of restrictions placed by the courts on Arizona’s effort to get local police to take action on illegal immigration. The smuggling law, like similar state statutes, was tossed because a judge concluded it conflicted with the federal government’s immigration powers. For years in Arizona, many officials resisted suggestions that local and state police agencies confront illegal immigration, long considered the sole province of the federal government. But the notion gained political traction as voters grew frustrated over the state’s status as the nation’s then-busiest immigrant smuggling hub and over what critics said was inadequate border protection by Washington. A small number of the state’s immigration laws have been upheld, including a key section of Arizona’s landmark 2010 immigration enforcement law that requires police to check people’s immigration status under certain circumstances. But the courts have slowly dismantled other Arizona laws and policies. U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton on Friday threw out the smuggling law as part of the Obama administration’s challenge of the state’s 2010 immigration law, which made a minor change to the 2005 statute. The dispute over the smuggling law is all that remains of the administration’s challenge of the 2010 law.

Nissan issues recall nesia to treat survivors of the 2004 tsunami, to for faulty air bags NEW YORK — Nissan announced Saturday that it is recalling more than 52,000 vehicles for passenger air bags that can explode with too much force and send shards of metal into the passenger compartment. The vehicles have air bag systems made by troubled Japanese supplier Takata Corp. The Nissan recalls are among nearly 8 million others made by 10 automakers, mainly in Southern high-humidity states, over the Takata air bags. The recall affects the Infiniti FX35 and FX45 from 2003 to 2005, Infiniti I35 from 2003 and 2004 and Infiniti M35 and M45 from 2006. Also affected are Nissan Pathfinders from 2003 and 2004 and Nissan Sentras from 2004 to 2006. The newly recalled vehicles were sold or registered in 12 highhumidity states and territories. The humidity can cause the air bag propellant to burn too fast and potentially blow apart the metal canisters. The problem has been linked to four deaths. Affected states and territories include Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas and the territories of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Saipan, Guam and American Samoa. Takata controls about 22 percent of the global air bag market. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating whether Takata and automakers that use its air bags acted quickly enough once the defects were suspected.

Volunteers deal with Ebola quarantines NEW YORK — Dr. Robert Fuller didn’t hesitate to go to Indo-

Haiti to help after the 2010 earthquake or to the Philippines after a devastating typhoon last year. But he’s given up on going to West Africa to care for Ebola patients this winter. He could make the six-week commitment sought by his go-to aid organization, International Medical Corps. But the possibility of a three-week quarantine afterward adds more time than he can take away from his job heading UConn Health Center’s emergency department. As Ebola-related quarantine policies have arisen around the United States, some health workers are reassessing whether, or how long, they can be among the hundreds that officials say are needed to fight the outbreak. Potential volunteers are anxious about what they might come back to, especially after seeing new rules arise so rapidly that nurse Kaci Hickox was sequestered in a medical tent for days because New Jersey announced new regulations the day she flew back from Sierra Leone. Others are facing family qualms. And as the year winds down, some aid workers wonder whether they’ll be able to go home for the holidays. Aid organizations say it’s too soon to tell whether quarantine rules are significantly shrinking the number of volunteers, but the measures are complicating an already challenging search for help treating a disease that has killed nearly 5,000 people, including about 310 health care workers. Some potential volunteers are wary of not only being quarantined but being seen as potential disease-carriers, rather than conscientious professionals.

Rust College delays trail marker unveiling HOLLY SPRINGS — The Mississippi Freedom Trail marker unveiling at Rust College scheduled for Thursday was postponed. Visit Mississippi spokeswoman Paige Hunt says the event was postponed due to scheduling conflicts. Rust College was slated to unveil two historic markers honoring the Council of Federated Organizations and those involved in the 1964 Freedom Summer Project in Holly Springs. The COFO ceremony was held near the campus. The markers would have recognized the activities of students, including boycotting the segregated Holly Theater and assisting with voter registration in the region. Rust College is a private four-year, liberal arts college. It is the oldest of the 11 historically black colleges related to the United Methodist Church, the second oldest private college in Mississippi and the oldest historically black college in the state.

Faculty, staff donate to USM Foundation HATTIESBURG — When God speaks, Birdie Holloway listens. And while reading the 23rd chapter of Psalms, the University of Southern Mississippi custodian said she was instructed “to do something prosperous for somebody.” She did. The Hattiesburg resident joined the University of Southern

Mississippi Foundation and started donating to the general scholarship fund. “I decided that someone else may need a chance for a better opportunity,” said Holloway, an eight-year employee who works in the Trent Lott Center. “I wasn’t going to college, but I felt if I could help a student in need, it would be pleasing to the Lord.” That was nearly two years ago, and Holloway is still giving. In fact, she plans to increase her donations in 2015. She is among the more than 970 employees 40 percent of USM’s 2,400 faculty and staff who are giving $183,524 to the university for Fiscal Year 2014 through donations to the foundation. Since the USM Foundation started the initiative, employee giving has steadily increased.

Delta State honors basketball player CLEVELAND — Delta State University will unveil a statute of the late Margaret Wade, who led the women’s basketball team to three consecutive AIAW National Championships from 1974-75 through 1976-77. The ceremony is scheduled for 2 p.m. Nov. 14 on the West Plaza of Kent Wyatt Hall. Speakers will include Delta State President Bill LaForge and former presidents Kent Wyatt and Aubrey Lucas and former WNBA head coach Van Chancellor. Wade was head coach of the Lady Statesmen from 1973-79 with a career record of 157-23.

The Wade Trophy is presented annually to the top collegiate women’s basketball player. Wade was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1985 and the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame in 1999.

Epps’ star falls after federal bribery charges BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Former Corrections Commissioner Chris Epps was a success story in Mississippi government until federal officials unveiled a lengthy indictment charging him with taking about $1 million in bribes from an ex-lawmaker who did business with the prison system. Epps worked 32 years for the state Department of Corrections and was the department’s longest serving commissioner, with a dozen years in that position. He is a double rarity — an employee who started at the lowest rung

and worked his way to the top, and an agency director who was chosen by and served under three governors, one Democrat and two Republicans. Epps, 53, resigned his $132,700-a-year job as commissioner Wednesday, and federal prosecutors the next day released the indictment charging him and former state Rep. Cecil McCrory in a bribery scheme that allegedly provided Epps with luxury vehicles, an upscale home in a gated community outside Jackson and a beachside condominium on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Prosecutors say that starting in 2007, Epps

steered prison-services contracts toward companies with which McCrory was affiliated as owner or consultant. Epps is charged in 40 felony counts and McCrory in 15. “This crime was made even more offensive because of the respected positions in state government that have been held by Mr. Epps for so long and the multitude of positions in state and local government that Mr. McCrory once held,” acting U.S. Attorney Harold Brittain said Thursday outside the federal courthouse in Jackson, moments after Epps and McCrory pleaded not guilty. McCrory, 62, served

in the state House from 1988 to 1994 and has been a Rankin County justice court judge. He resigned Tuesday as president of the Rankin County School Board. During their brief court appearance, Epps and McCrory stood with their attorneys and rarely made eye contact with each other. A Jan. 5 trial date has been set. Neither Epps nor McCrory would comment as they left the courthouse. The former commissioner’s subdued demeanor was in contrast to his usual gregarious personality. For years, Epps has been popular among leg-

islators with firm handshakes and sideways hugs for men and women alike. The Department of Corrections issued newsletters that typically featured a large photo of Epps on the cover and lots of grip-and-grin photos inside, showing Epps with elected officials or prison employees. “I don’t know of any legislator who ever spoke ill about him, except for maybe one or two,” said Senate Corrections Committee Chairman Sampson Jackson, D-Preston. Legislators in 2013 unanimously adopted a resolution commending him for becoming president of the American Cor-

rectional Association, a group of prison officials and law-enforcement officers with a Code of Ethics that specifies members “shall treat every professional situation with concern for the welfare of the individuals involved and with no intent to personal gain” and “shall refrain from using their positions to secure personal privileges or advantages.” Epps is a native of the tiny Delta town of Tchula, and he earned his bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Mississippi Valley State University. He started working in 1982 as guard at the Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman.

Obama: Attorney general nominee will carry on equal justice BY NEDRA PICKLER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama introduced his choice for attorney general Saturday as an accomplished prosecutor from New York City who will carry on a “fierce commitment to equal justice.” Obama argued at a White House ceremony that it’s “pretty hard to be more qualified” for the job of attorney general than Brooklyn federal prosecutor Loretta Lynch. “Loretta might be the only lawyer in America who battles mobsters and

drug lords and terrorists, and still has the reputation for being a charming people person,” Obama said to laughter from those who packed the Roosevelt Room for the announcement. The 55-year-old Lynch would be the first AfricanAmerican woman to serve as attorney general. She would replace outgoing Attorney General Eric Holder, who also was at Saturday’s announcement and was the first black head of the Justice Department. Lynch said she was humbled and thrilled at

Try us, you’ll love us in Corinth!

the prospect of leading “the only Cabinet department named for an ideal.” “If I have the honor of being confirmed by the Senate, I will wake up every morning with the protection of the American people my first thought,” she said. “And I will work every day to safeguard our citizens, our liberties, our rights, and this great nation which has given so much to me and my family.” Republicans have promised tough scrutiny of Obama’s pick after years of battles with Holder, who is close to

Lynch and appointed her as chair of a committee that advises him on policy. Holder has been an unflinching champion of civil rights in enforcing the nation’s laws and his successor will be left to grapple with several prominent civil rights issues that have been elevated on his watch. White House officials said they are leaving it up to Senate leaders to work out the timeline for her confirmation, with Obama calling for approval “without delay.” But with Democrats facing a long list of priorities

before year’s end brings a shift to Republican control, it’s likely she won’t get a vote until next year. Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, a Democrat and the outgoing chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said he will consult about scheduling confirmation hearings with Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, the Republican who will take over in January. “She will appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee in a public hearing after we have had time to review her record,” he said in a statement. Lynch was chosen in

large part because the White House sees her as likely to win approval from the Senate after Republicans won the majority in Tuesday’s midterm election. Grassley’s office said Obama called him Friday night to tell him Lynch would be the nominee and the White House followed up to schedule a time for Grassley to speak with Lynch. Lynch is the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, which covers Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Long Island, a position she also held under President Bill Clinton.

TV campaign for gay equality begins in state BY JAY REEVES Associated Press

BRANDON — Mary Jane Kennedy considers herself a conservative Christian Republican, and she’s led Bible studies in her native Mississippi for decades. She’s also the mother of two gay sons and one of the faces in a new advertising campaign aimed at softening religious opposition in the Deep South to equal rights for people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. The Washington-based Human Rights Campaign is taking on the region’s longstanding church-based opposition to homosexuality in a series of groundbreaking television commercials, direct-mail messages and phone-bank operations designed to promote equality and legal protections for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender people in Alabama, Arkansas and Mississippi. TV commercials will begin airing Monday in Jackson, the state’s largest city and prime media market, with Kennedy featured as a mom who struggled to understand her own sons’ sexuality and believes God loves them, just like everyone else. The commercials also will be available online, as will banner ads on websites. Other commercials may follow in Alabama and Arkansas depending on the reception and results of the Mississippi campaign. The Mississippi effort — which will cost $310,000 — is part of an $8.5 million, three-year effort launched six months ago in the three states. Brad Clark, director of Project One America for Human Rights Campaign, said the commercials are the group’s most direct effort yet to confront religious attitudes involving sexual orientation and non-traditional gender identification. Polls have shown that Mississippi is among the most religious states, with more than half of its 3 million residents belonging to Southern Baptist churches. At the same time, Mississippians are far less likely than the average American to say they know someone who is gay, according to Human Rights Campaign. The commercials will begin airing two days before a federal court hearing in Jackson on a Mississippi law that bans same-sex marriage. Opponents of the ban are seeking a preliminary injunction to prevent the ban from being enforced while a lawsuit seeking to overturn it is pending. In November 2004, Mississippi voters overwhelmingly approved a state constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. After a series of recent court decisions, gay couples have the right to marry in 30 states. However, earlier this month a panel of federal judges from the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati upheld anti-gay marriage laws in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Tennessee. Kennedy, 61, was initially apprehensive about speaking out so publicly about such a private topic, but she said her faith led her to the belief that spreading kindness, love and caring was more important than her own fears. Justin Kelly of Jackson says the spots could help build acceptance in his home state. The 25-yearold Iraq war veteran is openly gay and will be featured in his Army Reserve uniform in another TV spot during the campaign, called “All God’s Children.” “The values that are already in place in Mississippi are what we’re looking for: To be friendly, to

be open, to have conversations,” said Kelly.

The president of the conservative American

Family Association, Tim Wildmon, said he doubts

advertising will have much of an effect on the

attitudes of Mississippi residents in the pews.

The City of Corinth has an opportunity that very few cities in the country have, high speed Broadband Technology. To make this technology a reality we need your help. First, let me tell you why this kind of technology is vital to Corinth. • Broadband has unmatched reliability and speed, up to 100x faster. • In the past, we focused on building roads, water and utility lines to support businesses. Now, growing businesses demand broadband. • For Corinth to remain competitive in attracting and growing businesses we need this essential piece of infrastructure. • These growing businesses will employ our citizens. Without these jobs, the next generation will simply move away. • Broadband is essential to learning. Without broadband it will be impossible to maintain the highest quality of education. Students will be able to connect with leading universities from their computer in Corinth. • Broadband may not mean much to you, but it is tremendously important to our children and grandchildren. Anyone who has seen a six-year-old use a smart phone or tablet understands this is true. Increasingly, people will live and work by connecting through the Internet. • Passing up on this opportunity will inevitably limit our future prospects. • When Eisenhower built the interstate highway system he was not building for his generation. Rather, he advocated for the interstate highway system for future generations. This technology is our equivalent to the interstate system. • Will benefit us through economic development, education, health care solutions, quality of life, and increased home values. Before broadband can be built out to our neighborhoods, we need to show that Corinth is behind this advancement. In order to do that, we need homes to pre-register. Pre-registering is not a commitment and there is no obligation to take this service. By Preregistering, you are not switching providers or putting yourself under any contract. PreRegistration is NOT a contract and NOT an obligation. It is a VOTE FOR Corinth. Households that pre-register will have first option when the service comes. Households that don’t pre-register, but choose to get the service after it comes to Corinth may have to pay a $300 construction fee, so pre-registering is a great way to save over $300. We have a deadline of December 31, 2014 to have our votes for Corinth. We can’t do it alone and that’s why we are asking for your support. We will be calling on you. Corinth has the opportunity to continue our legacy as the Crossroads City by becoming the crossroads for technology. As leaders in Corinth, we need to take the Eisenhower perspective that our obligation is to build for generations to come. Please join us in supporting this advancement for our community. Households in the North* area are asked to pre-register by calling 287-5269, going online cspire.com/Corinth, or going by The Alliance, 810 Tate Street. We need you! Thank you,

*This first phase of this initiative is focusing on households in the “North” Fiberhood. To find out what area your household is in, you can view a map at cspire.com/Corinth

WASHINGTON — The unemployment rate no longer seems to reflect America’s mood. Friday’s strong jobs report showed that the jobless rate — the most closely watched gauge of the economy’s health — is down to 5.8 percent. A year ago, the rate was 7.2 percent. Five years ago, it was 10 percent. It’s the kind of sustained decline that would normally suggest a satisfied public.

Gentiva Hospice of Booneville is now the highest ranked hospice in Booneville. Many Americans do not realize that 1 in 4 of all deaths in the U.S. are veterans.

Not so much anymore. After Tuesday’s midterm elections, exit polling showed how little falling unemployment has resonated. Most voters said they cast their ballots out of fear for the economy, stripping the Democrats from the Senate majority and implicitly rejecting President Barack Obama. Many Americans don’t feel they’ve benefited from falling unemployment any more than they have from a sustained rise in the stock market or from solid U.S. economic growth. Some hints of their discontent can be found within an otherwise glowing jobs report for October: Wages that are barely growing and a stubbornly low proportion of adults who either have a job or are looking for one. “Underneath the surface, things are not good,� said Michael Mandel, chief economic strategist at the Progressive Policy Institute. “Both Democrats and Republicans would be making a mistake if they looked at the unemployment numbers and didn’t understand why voters are angry.� Is there solid evidence that the economy is better? Definitely. Home values have recovered from their recession-induced lows, according to real estate groups. Government figures show that fewer and fewer workers are being laid-off. Consumers punched the accelerator on auto sales this year. And the stock market has kept up its stampede to record highs. But the jobs report contains clues to why many voters shrugged off those positive trends. Consider wages. Workers’ pay usually outpaces inflation once the unemployment rate dips beneath 6 percent. That’s because when fewer people need to look for jobs, employers must raise pay to attract the most desirable among them. Even with 5.8 percent unemployment and even though more than five years have passed since the Great Recession officially ended, this phenomenon has yet to take hold. Most workers’ pay is barely keeping up with historically low inflation. “People aren’t looking at the statistical aggregates,� said Bill Galston, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. “They care about their standard of living, and most Americans think their standard of living has declined.�

Fertility issues put pressure on woman’s biological clock D E A R ABBY: I am an educated, single woman in my 30s. I’d love to be a mom one day, but Abigail because I fertility/ Van Buren have ovulation issues, I’ll need Dear Abby treatments in order to conceive. I’m scared that by the time I find a husband, I may be too old. For the last few months I have been dating a great guy, “Scott.” He says he’s willing to help me have a child. However, when marriage was mentioned, Scott said he won’t be ready to settle down for a few more years. I understand, because he’s not yet financially stable. I don’t mind waiting to marry him, but I can’t wait that long to have children. My friends say I scream “desperation,” but most of them are also in their 30s, married and aggressively seeking fertility treatments. Should I wait for the unknown or take a leap of faith? -- WEIGHING MY OPTIONS IN HOUSTON DEAR WEIGHING: No one can answer that for you. But

while you’re pondering, let me weigh in: Before “leaping,” you should be fully aware that Scott -- as nice as he may be -- may not be husband material. The baby could be in college before he’s ready to settle down, so the responsibility of raising your child may be solely yours. I assume that as an educated woman you have a good job, but it’s important you discuss this with an attorney, so Scott’s financial responsibility to his child will be spelled out beforehand. Children and child care are expensive. If something unforeseen were to happen to you or the child -an accident, a physical or mental illness or disability -- the costs could skyrocket. Also, if you’re a regular reader, you may have noticed that more than a few women say that because they have a child, men shy away, which could negatively affect your chances of marrying in the future. DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have married children. When it comes to holiday meals, we have a problem. For instance, our youngest daughter was the first to ask us for Thanksgiving dinner. I gave no answer at the time. That same day, one of our sons asked. Another son asked a day later. I told them all I’d let

them know. Well, the day after that, our oldest daughter called and invited us. We have been to all the kids’ homes for holiday dinners except our oldest daughter’s. Because we had never been there for a holiday, we accepted her invitation. Now our youngest daughter, who asked us first, is upset. She choked up on the phone when I told her we were going to her sister’s. How do we make all our children happy? What should we have done? -HOLIDAY DILEMMA DEAR DILEMMA: The way you handled it was not only insensitive, but also rude. Because your youngest daughter was the first to invite you, you should have either accepted her invitation or declined -- not strung her along and kept her hanging. I don’t blame her for feeling hurt because it now appears you favor her older sister. From now on, work out a plan in which you rotate holiday dinners among your children and there will be fewer hurt feelings.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Many complain about being inundated with unwanted items in the inbox of life, and yet they still go seeking more, different, something ... what? You’ll be touched by this restlessness, too. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Being with family and friends is the order of the day, and though there is much that is familiar about the scene, you’ll be moved to take a fresh approach, shaking up the status quo and making memories. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The nature where you live isn’t as easy to appreciate as the nature you see when you travel. Yet, what’s in your own backyard, in its own way, is as beautiful as any far-off natural environment. CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s a day to watch yourself, especially on social media. There may be a fine line between sharing and over-sharing, but if you cross that line, the consequences will be disproportionate to the

tiny step it took. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). “Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?” Tupac Shakur asked. It could happen. Maybe. Could it? That’s where you are with a certain project/relationship: wondering, hopefully, what’s really possible. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s much you’ve collected over the years: ideas and knowledge, as well as artifacts from life. Someone will want to experience your collection now and will happily give their attention to the things you like. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love won’t follow the rules: Opposites won’t attract, meets won’t be “cute,” patience and kindness are replaced by urgency and arguing. Yet, somehow, at the end of the day, loved ones are closer than they were. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Hyperbole hurts communication. Nothing “always” happens or “never” happens, so you can scratch those implausible ex-

pressions. Go for the reasonable statements. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The big plans you made are starting to come together. The transformation is underway. Open your hands and let go of the person you’ve been. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll get outside of the normal routine and expand your comfort zone. First, you’ll learn through someone else’s experience, and then you’ll learn even more through your own. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People who smile aren’t always happy. You see through the masks that people wear and into the pain below the surface. You are careful and kind in your dealings, fully aware of how fragile most people really are. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Getting more love in your life may simply be a matter of rearranging your living space to improve the feng shui. Attractive areas where people can sit and talk will invite communication and sharing.

Mississippi routs Presbyterian Associated Press

OXFORD, Miss. — Shortly after a pair of heartbreaking losses that tarnished a 7-0 start and a No. 3 ranking in the poll, Mississippi head coach Hugh Freeze made a promise to himself and his Rebels. “I promised to stay the course and not be discouraged,” Freeze said. “So, I’m happy to have eight wins and be sitting where we are. It’s a happy locker room today.” Ole Miss (8-2, 4-2 SEC West) appeared to be emotionally healthy in a 48-0 win over Presbyterian College on Saturday. The Rebels ran up 640 yards of total offense, highlighted by Bo Wallace, who threw for two touch-

downs and ran for another, exclusively in the first half. Wallace was 11 for 15 for 140 yards, including scoring strikes of 66 and 23 yards to Vince Sanders and ran for a 9-yard score. Jordan Wilkins and Mark Dodson rushed for 171 and 128 yards, respectively, accounting for three touchdowns. “The two that jumped out to everyone were Jordan Wilkins and Mark Dodson,” Freeze said. “Their downhill run was very impressive today. I’m impressed with what we saw, for sure.” Dodson scored on first half runs of 65 and 62 yards. In the second half, Wilkins scored on a 73-yard run and DeVante Kincade threw a 31-

yard touchdown pass to Derrick Jones. “I felt like we played really well,” Wallace said. “I think we got everything accomplished that we wanted to get accomplished.” Presbyterian (5-5, 2-2 Big South) got 13 tackles and an interception from safety Ed Britt, but could not answer the big plays from the Rebels. Offensively, the Blue Hose managed only 156 total yards and did not cross the Ole Miss 38-yard line. “Unfortunately, we did not play as well as I would have hoped,” Presbyterian coach Harold Nichols said. “Some of it had to do with us, but a lot of it had to do with them. They have a great team.”

The win, before an announced Vaught-Hemingway Stadium crowd of 60,546, snapped a painful two-game losing streak to LSU and Auburn, respectively. In both games, the Rebels had potential game-winning scores wiped out by turnovers on their final offensive series. The two losses also redefined the depth chart. Eight starters did not dress out or play against Presbyterian, including a handful of postseason honors candidates. The most obvious was wide receiver LaQuon Treadwell who dislocated an ankle and broke a leg on a fumble while crossing the goal line against Please see REBELS | 11A

Georgia pummels Kentucky GARY B. GRAVES Associated Press

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Considering the hard work Georgia put in this week, senior quarterback Hutson Mason wasn’t shocked that touchdown passes came so easily against Kentucky. More notable for the No. 17 Bulldogs was the frequency of those scores. Hutson Mason threw a career-best four touchdown passes, Nick Chubb rushed for 170 yards and a TD and Georgia steamrolled Kentucky 63-31 on Saturday. Coming off last week’s loss to Florida that knocked the Bulldogs (7-2, 5-2 Southeastern Conference, No. 20 CFP) from the playoff picture, they responded with their second-highest point total this season to remain in the East division hunt. Georgia scored touchdowns on all but one possession behind Mason’s most efficient effort as a starter. He completed 11 of his first 13 passes including the TDs, two of which went to Chris Conley for 15 and 4 yards. Jeb Blazevich caught TDs from Mason and backup Brice Ramsey and Malcolm Mitchell caught one each. Jonathon Rumph caught four passes for a team-high 81 yards. “Everybody just did their job at a high level,” said Mason, who finished 13 of 16 passing (81.3 percent) for 174 yards. “When you execute in football and don’t beat yourself, you have a really good chance of really doing something special and that’s what we did today.” Chubb and Sony Michel added TD runs of 18 and 24 yards. Isaiah McKenzie returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a score and a punt 59 yards for another TD. The Bulldogs outgained Kentucky 559-353.

No. 1 Mississippi State tops UT Martin BY DAVID BRANDT Associated Press

STARKVILLE, Miss. — Dak Prescott stepped up in the pocket and then pulled the ball down, accelerating through the left side of the line and darting down the sideline for an easy 48-yard touchdown run. It was one of several highlights for No. 1 Mississippi State in a 45-16 victory over Tennessee-Martin on Saturday at Davis Wade Stadium. But the Prescott run was arguably the most important play — showing that the cen-

terpiece of the Bulldogs’ offense is reasonably healthy as the program makes a final push for its first Southeastern Conference title since 1941. Prescott had battled a left ankle injury over the past few weeks, occasionally wearing a protective boot around the football complex. He moved gingerly on the ankle in a win over Arkansas one week ago, but didn’t seem bothered by it on Saturday. The Bulldogs (9-0, No. 1 CFP) extended their winning streak to 12 games, jumping ahead 24-3 by halftime.

Prescott completed 14 of 23 passes for 206 yards and two touchdowns. It was his school-record ninth 200-yard passing game of the season. He also ran for 54 yards. “Dak played pretty solid,” Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said. “He didn’t have to make a lot of plays today, just manage the offense and distribute the ball. He missed one or two throws in there, but he made more than he missed.” Mississippi State’s Brandon Holloway ran for a 35yard touchdown and Ashton

Shumpert added a 59-yard touchdown run as the Bulldogs gained 254 yards on the ground and 520 yards overall. “We didn’t execute as clean as we wanted to in that first half,” Prescott said. “But we still made some plays and still got the job done.” UT Martin (5-6) closed to 7-3 on Jackson Redditt’s 33-yard field goal late in the first quarter, but failed to make any consistent progress against Mississippi State’s defense.

Aggies pull off upset of No. 3 Auburn BY JOHN ZENOR Associated Press

AUBURN, Ala. — Freshman Kyle Allen threw four touchdown passes in the first half and Texas A&M recovered two late fumbles in a 41-38 upset victory over No. 3 Auburn on Saturday that likely ended the Tigers’ playoff hopes. The Aggies (7-3, 3-3 Southeastern Conference), who came in as 23-point under-

dogs, pulled off the kind of dramatic finish that had become an Auburn trademark. The Tigers (7-2, 4-2, No. 3 CFP) twice appeared to be driving toward a go-ahead touchdown before coughing it up on plays that never really got going. First, Julien Obioha won a scramble for the ball at the 2 after Nick Marshall and Cameron Artis-Payne got tangled up in the backfield.

The Aggies couldn’t get away from their goal line before punting, and Trey Williams just managed to push the ball out of the end zone to avoid a safety on third down. Then, the Tigers drove inside the 30 for one more shot. Marshall appeared to be still calling the play when center Reese Dismukes snapped it on first down from the 28. Alonzo Williams recovered

with 54 seconds left, setting off another celebration on the Aggies’ sideline and leaving most of the Jordan-Hare Stadium crowd in stunned silence. Texas A&M had dropped three straight SEC games before toppling a contender. The defending SEC champion and national runner-up Please see AUBURN | 11A

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Kelvin Taylor ran for a touchdown and Treon Harris threw for 215 yards and ran for two scores himself as the Florida Gators beat Vanderbilt 34-10 on Saturday night for their second straight win. Florida (5-3, 4-3) still must beat South Carolina and needs help in the Southeastern Conference’s Eastern Division. But the Gators kept their hopes alive for the East title while getting revenge against Vanderbilt for beating them last year on their own field for the first time since 1945. Florida has won 12 straight against the Commodores on their own field since its last loss here in 1988. The Gators scored 24 straight points in taking control.

No. 4 Alabama defeats No. 14 LSU in overtime BY BRETT MARTEL Associated Press

BATON ROUGE, La. — Alabama quarterback Blake Sims figured out LSU’s defense just in time for the Crimson Tide to deal the Tigers yet another devastating loss in Death Valley. Sims drove Alabama 55 yards in the final 50 seconds of regulation for a tying field goal, and threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to DeAndrew

White in overtime to lift No. 4 Alabama to a 20-13 victory over No. 14 LSU on Saturday. With the victory and Auburn’s upset loss to Texas A&M earlier in the day, Alabama (8-1, 5-1 Southeastern Conference, No. 5 CFP) is alone in second place in the SEC West Division with a game against first-place Mississippi State on its schedule. Amari Cooper had eight catches for 83 yards and a 23-

yard touchdown while setting Alabama career and singleseason records for yards receiving, as well as the school’s single-season mark for catches with 79. T.J. Yeldon’s fumble deep in Alabama territory set up Colby Delahoussaye’s 39-yard field goal that gave LSU (7-3, 3-3, No. 16 CFP) a 13-10 lead with 50 seconds left. If the Tigers had been able to hold on, they would have

pulled into a four-way tie for second place in the SEC West with Alabama, Auburn (7-2, 4-2, No. 3 CFP) and Mississippi (8-2, 4-2, No. 11 CFP). But LSU’s defense, which dominated much of night to the delight of a sellout crowd of 102,321, was unable to make one last stand after kickoff specialist Trent Domingue yanked his kick out of bounds, giving Alabama the ball on its 35 with 50 seconds to go.

Scoreboard

REBELS CONTINUED FROM 10A

Auburn. The Rebels get a bye week before closing with division games at Arkansas and arch-rival No. 1 Mississippi State Bulldogs at home. A sweep would allow Ole Miss to keep faint hopes alive for an SEC West title, an SEC Championship Game berth and a spot in the College Football Playoff. “We got to sit a few guys today and with a bye, we hope to be as healthy as we have been in a long time when we travel to Fayetteville,” Freeze said. “We’ve just

Auto racing got to get better physically and work on some things for Arkansas.” Ole Miss must win and would still need an odd set of outcomes involving Auburn, Alabama and Mississippi State to make those title hopes a reality. But the Rebels remain convinced that anything is still possible. “You can yield to outside sources and pressures and different things when things aren’t exactly what everybody wants them to be or you can yield to something bigger than yourself,” Freeze said. I thought our kids handled the week very, very well.”

BULLDOGS CONTINUED FROM 10A

The Skyhawks’ Jarod Neal threw for a 31-yard touchdown and also ran for a 1-yard score. Mississippi State led 38-3 in the fourth quarter before TennesseeMartin — which plays at the Football Championship Subdivision level — scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns against the Bulldogs’ backup defense. “We wanted to make sure the quarterbacks felt us on every play,” Mississippi State linebacker Ryan Brown said. “We have to improve and that’s the thing. People that don’t improve later in the season are the ones who fall off.” Mississippi State had just one late turnover by the backup offense. It was a welcome change for the Bulldogs compared to the previous three games, which were marred by a combined eight turnovers. Now the Bulldogs can prepare for their final stretch of SEC competition, which begins with a crucial game at Alabama on Nov. 15. They also host Vanderbilt and travel to face Mississippi in the Egg Bowl. “We still haven’t achieved all that much,” Mullen said. “With three games left to play we’re in first place in the West, but there’s still a lot of football.” Prescott had been inconsistent over the past

three weeks, completing just 57.4 percent of his passes for three touchdowns and five interceptions against Auburn, Kentucky and Arkansas. But he avoided mistakes against the Skyhawks, finding Fred Brown for a 10-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and Joe Morrow on a 55-yard touchdown in the third. Josh Robinson, who was second in the SEC in rushing coming into the game, carried the ball just six times for 33 yards in limited action. UT Martin’s Abou Toure finished with 94 yards rushing on 19 carries. Dylan Favre, the nephew of former NFL star Brett Favre, completed 8 of 16 passes for 57 yards for the Skyhawks. He played for Mississippi State in 2010 and 2011. Neal was 14-of-27 passing for 159 yards. “We left a couple of plays out there today that we wish we could have hit,” TennesseeMartin coach Jason Simpson said. “Obviously, (Mississippi State is) a very good football team and their athletic ability caused us to be in the wrong place.” Mississippi State said cornerback Will Redmond was suspended from Saturday’s game because of an academic issue. Redmond had a late interception against Arkansas on Nov. 1 to seal a 17-10 victory.

AUBURN CONTINUED FROM 10A

Tigers saw both their title hopes and the nation’s longest home winning streak (14 games) end. They’d won two straight on games that went down to the final play, and coincidentally the biggest play against No. 12 Mississippi was a goal-line fumble.

Allen was poised and steady in his second career start and first on the road. He completed 19 of 29 passes for 277 yards with an interception, mostly avoiding miscues against a beleaguered Auburn defense. Allen capped Texas A&M’s first two drives with long touchdown pass-

es, 60 yards to Malcome Kennedy and 36 to Josh Reynolds for a 14-0 lead. Kennedy had 118 yards receiving and Reynolds also caught a 7-yard TD pass in the second quarter. It was a turnaround from the highly touted freshman quarterback’s first start, a shaky 2116 win over Louisiana-

completed 15 of 21 passes for 219 yards and a touchdown while running 18 times for 67 yards. He had only 80 passing yards going into the fourth quarter before finally heating up. Auburn’s top receiver D’haquille Williams injured his right knee in the second quarter and didn’t return.

Fall for story of friendship in ‘Falling from Horses’ BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER Book Review Columnist

“Falling from Horses” by Molly Gloss c.2014, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt $25.00 / $32.00 Canada 336 pages Be careful what you wish for.No doubt, you’ve been told that before. What you want and what you need are often two different things, and desires can be dangerous. The wrong wish acquired could lead to disaster. Or, as in the new novel “Falling from Horses” by Molly Gloss, it could also be a means of escape. For Bud Frazer, Hollywood was almost a lastminute thought. Oh, the notion to go there had fleetingly occurred to him a time or two while watching westerns at the local theatre. After awhile, he reasoned that if movie cowboys could get paid for riding,

then so could he; riding was something he knew well. Winning secondprize rodeo money only sealed the idea. It was 1938, and Bud’s parents worked on somebody else’s Oregon ranch, after having lost their own. Bud was eighteen, and Hollywood sounded good; he couldn’t bear to go with his folks, away from the land he considered home. There was just no point. After his sister died, there was nothing left to say. And as the bus crossed into California from Oregon, Bud met Lily Shaw. She wasn’t much to look at; she was older than Bud, but he decided he liked her anyhow. She was bold; said she was headed to Hollywood to be a screenwriter, and she seemed to know what she was talking about. Once they hit town, she even pointed him toward a

place to stay. She couldn’t help with work, but Bud managed that. He spent a couple months wrangling on a ranch that provided horses for movie companies, then a ramrod gave him decent money for stunt riding. He worked a few movies, collected a few scars, and learned enough about the industry to sour him. Every now and then, he called his parents, and he thought about Lily Shaw. She was irritating, driven, and courageous, always acting like she was smarter. She liked to pretend that she had things to teach him. It took years for Bud to learn… I had a bit of a hard time with “Falling from Horses” at first. It’s slow, and moseys a little too much; in fact, I almost quit it twice. But then, after thirty pages or so, I gasped

at one of author Molly Gloss’s small plotlines. My “awwww” response was on high, and I realized that I was completely wrapped up in what’s ultimately a quiet novel of friendship and haunting memories. The kicker is in the way that Gloss ekes out her backstory. Through that, we get to know characters that are integral to the tale but that barely make an appearance in it. Those glimpses were my favorite part here because they act to smooth out the edges of the rest of the novel. And no, I can’t tell you more. Again, this book starts slow but stick with it. It’s worth it in the end, especially if you like old movies, old cowboys, or gentle tales. For you, “Falling from Horses” could be all you wish for. (Terri Schlichenmeyer is the book review columnist for the Daily Corinthian.)

Civil War officer receives Medal of Honor over 150 years later BY DARLENE SUPERVILLE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Weak and bleeding, a Union Army officer who stood fast commanding his artillery battery and was killed as thousands of Confederate forces advanced on his troops received an honor Thursday from President Barack Obama that was more than 150 years in the making: the Medal of Honor. It is the nation’s highest military honor for battlefield valor. Obama awarded the medal to First Lt. Alonzo H. Cushing, who was killed on July 3, 1863, during the three-day Bat-

tle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania. The fight often is described as a turning point of the Civil War. A distant cousin, Helen Loring Ensign, of Palm Desert, California, accepted the framed medal. “This medal is a reminder that, no matter how long it takes, it’s never too late to do the right thing,” Obama told about 60 descendants and supporters of the 22-year-old Wisconsin native during a brief ceremony in a windowless White House meeting room. Cushing commanded about 110 men and six cannons, defending the Union position on Cemetery Ridge against Pick-

Pickin’ for a Cure

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the John Deere company donated a portion of the sales from its pink cotton bale wrap sheets to breast cancer awareness in a “Pickin’ for a Cure” campaign. Three generations gathered near the end of Octo ber at Circle C Farms in Corinth to construct and set out their cotton rolls: Rita Coleman Keith; her sons, Clint Coleman and Cody Coleman; daughter, Christy Dickson; granddaughters, Molly Kate (daughter of Clint Coleman and Jessica Hathcock) and Jordan Dickson; and future daughter-in-law, Allison Essary. Showing off their matching T-shirts designed by T. Burns Impressions are Rita Coleman Keith, Christy Dickson, Molly Kate, Jordan Dickson and Allison Essary.

ett’s Charge, a major Confederate thrust that was repelled by Union forces. On the final day of battle, Cushing’s small force stood its ground under severe artillery bombardment and an assault by nearly 13,000 advancing Confederate infantrymen. Wounded in the stomach and right shoulder, Cushing refused to move to the rear and insisted on ordering his guns to the front lines. Obama quoted Cushing as telling a fellow soldier who had urged him to go to the rear that he would “fight it out, or die in the attempt.” Obama also paid tribute to the thousands of

unknown young soldiers “who saved our union” and observed “that I might not be standing here today, as president, had it not been for the ultimate sacrifices of those courageous Americans.” The presentation to Cushing was all the more extraordinary because recommendations for a Medal of Honor normally must be made within two years of an act of heroism, and the medal presented within three. Congress had to grant an exemption for Cushing’s honor. “Sometimes even the most extraordinary stories can get lost in the passage of time,” Obama said. He acknowledged

efforts by Cushing’s supporters, including members of Congress, who pushed for the posthumous honor. Included in that group is Margaret Zerwekh, a historian from Cushing’s birthplace of Delafield. Obama said she spent more than 25 years researching and writing letters on Cushing’s behalf. “What’s more, she even managed to bring Republican and Democrats together to make this happen,” Obama said, two days after elections in which voters expressed their frustration over Washington gridlock by putting the GOP in control of the Senate.

Obama told Zerwekh that “we may call on you again sometime in the next several months.” Wisconsin Reps. Jim Sensenbrenner, a Republican, and Ron Kind, a Democrat, led the congressional effort to see that Cushing received a Medal of Honor. Later Thursday, Obama and first lady Michelle Obama were honoring service members, veterans and their families at a musical event on the South Lawn. Mrs. Obama and Jill Biden, the wife of Vice President Joe Biden, lead “Joining Forces,” a nationwide campaign to rally the country to support its troops.

President of MSU delivers lecture on Extension Service ORLANDO, Fla. — Mississippi State University President Mark E. Keenum delivered the 2014 Seaman A. Knapp Memorial Lecture in memory of “The Father of Extension,” in Orlando, Fla., at the annual meeting of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU). Keenum’s lecture focused on the historic and future role of Cooperative Extension in helping producers, consumers, families and communities find science-based solutions to the challenges they face. “We can look back with pride and satisfaction on what Extension has accomplished during its first century,” said Keenum, who is a native of Corinth. “And while we can scarcely guess what the world of 100 years hence will look like, we can have considerable confidence that a system of helping people learn by doing where they live and work can make it a better place.” The Seaman A. Knapp Lecture is one of three rotating lectures presented by the APLU and U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) honoring three historic Land-Grant University figures: Seaman A. Knapp, Justin Smith Morrill, and William Henry Hatch. Nominations for this prestigious award are submitted by land-grant universities, stakeholders, foundations, public interest groups and international organizations. Keenum discussed how American universities, and land-grant institutions in particular, are

well equipped to help governments, international organizations, the private business sector, and nongovernmental organizations in addressing pervasive global problems such as vitamin deficiencies, access to clean water, hunger and malnutrition. “We have only scratched the surface of what research, extension and teaching at academic institutions will be able to contribute in the fight against world hunger in the years ahead, improving the health, safety and security of millions,” Keenum said. “Our challenge is to bring our resources to bear on critical global issues. One of the greatest tools at our disposal is the Extension model,” he added. Knapp’s success as a national leader of the Farm and Home Demonstration System helped bring about the Smith-Lever Act of 1914, which resulted in the creation of the Cooperative Extension Service in every state. “As we celebrate the centennial of the SmithLever Act, it is only fitting that this year’s Knapp lecturer began his distinguished career in the Extension Service and has remained an ardent supporter of agriculture in the United States,” said Sonny Ramaswamy, director of NIFA. Keenum became the 19th president of MSU on Jan. 5, 2009, and has guided Mississippi State to new heights during his first five years in office. His quick action to address budget shortfalls following the recession that began in 2008 put the university in position to meet those challenges and maintain the highest level of academic excellence.

Shannon Graves, Wade McCoy

Graves—McCoy

Leigh Taylor Wamble, Anderson Hunter Timmons

Wamble—Timmons Mr. and Mrs. Michael A. Wamble of Saltillo, announce the engagement of their daughter, Leigh Taylor Wamble, to Anderson Hunter Timmons, son of Mr. and Mrs. Danny C. Timmons of Corinth. Miss Wamble is the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy L. Nelson of Oxford and Mrs. Pat Wamble and the late Mr. James E. Wamble Sr. of Columbus. Mr. Timmons is the grandson of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Logan Anderson of Corinth and Mrs. Louise Timmons and the late Mr. Carl W. Timmons of Corinth. The bride-elect is a 2006 Highest Honors Graduate of West Lauderdale High School. She was a cum laude graduate of the University of Mississippi with a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education in

2010. The bride-elect is employed as a kindergarten teacher. The prospective groom graduated from Corinth High School in 2007. He graduated from the University of Mississippi in 2011 where he received a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. While there, he double majored in Managerial Finance and Real Estate. Mr. Timmons is currently employed at Norfolk Southern, where he is an Assistant Trainmaster. The couple will exchange vows at 6 p.m. on Nov. 15, 2014, at First Baptist Church in Corinth. Reception will follow at The Franklin Courtyard (formerly the Venue at SoCo) in Corinth. Friends and family are invited to attend.

Use cuisine to create a unique wedding to remember Despite the months of planning and poring over every minute detail of a wedding, it has often been said that what people remember most about wedding receptions is the food and if they had fun. Therefore, instead of

worrying about choosing Jordan almonds over chocolate truffles, or whether the cake should have an extra tier, couples may want to pay more attention to selecting their reception menus.

Miss Shannon Graves and Mr. Wade McCoy exchanged vows at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 8, 2014, at Kemp’s Chapel Baptist Church in Rienzi. The bride is the daughter of Michael and Marty Graves. She is the granddaughter of Harold and Bernice Graves and Walter and Grace Sides. The prospective groom is the son of Charles McCoy and Lorraine Savage. He is the grandson

of Allie Glidewell and Pedro and Viola Savage. The bride is a 2004 graduate of Biggersville High School. She received her degree from NEMCC in 2006. She received the President’s List award and was a member of Phi Theta Kappa. The groom is a 1992 graduate of Kossuth High School. He is presently employed at Caterpillar.

Choose the right color for bridesmaids gowns Bridesmaids are an important part of the wedding party, and most brides opt to have a handful of close friends and family members play a special role in the wedding. Choosing a gown and a color that will flatter all of the bridesmaids typically takes a little work. An overwhelming majority of couples choose to have a formal wedding. The average number of bridesmaids for these formal weddings is four. Considering around two million weddings take place in North America every year, that’s a lot of bridesmaids for whom gowns and other attire must be planned. Many bridesmaids worry about the gowns they will wear come the big day. Horrible bridesmaid dresses have been

the butt of jokes for years, and many people have their own stories of garish gowns they’ve been asked to don for a wedding. Some have said that brides intentionally choose ugly gowns for their bridesmaids to ensure they’re not outshined come the wedding day. Although this may be the case for some, most brides aspire to select gowns that will be flattering for all. And color scheme is integral in the choice of gown. Every well-planned wedding carries a color scheme throughout. This includes the color a bride selects for her bridesmaids to wear. But not every color accentuates everyone’s features. Therefore, some experimentation might be necessary to find a color that is flattering to all and fits with the color scheme.

Unique touches add to receptions Over the course of their lifetimes, many people will be wedding guests on several occasions. During the height of wedding season, weddings can run into one another, as the format and the festivities are similar at various ceremonies. Couples interested in setting their nuptials apart may want to enhance the wedding reception with a few unique ideas. Who hasn’t attended a wedding that seems formulaic? The couple enters, they do their spotlight dance, there’s food, a bouquet toss and then the cake cutting. Guests may actually be able to predict what’s coming next. While it is often customary and easy to follow tradition, that doesn’t mean you cannot buck with tradition and offer a few creative ideas to make your event stand out. Here are several ideas you can introduce into your wedding to add something special to the reception. • Skip the big entrance. Those who were kind enough to attend the ceremony have already been introduced to the newly minted happy couple. Instead of spending the cocktail hour in the isolation of the wedding suite, mingle with your guests from start to finish. So much time is spent posing for pictures or being out of touch with guests, the cocktail hour can be a great time to sit and chat. Being with guests during the cocktail hour means you don’t have to make that big entrance from behind closed doors. Guests will have all eyes on you when you step on the dance floor for your first dance together. • Dance to an upbeat number. Guests are expecting a slow, sappy tune. What they may not expect is an upbeat song that shows you are willing to have a little fun. If you haven’t mastered the waltz but enjoy a little quick step now and again, feel free to choose a tune that shows your

excitement and love for each other. • Encourage couples to dance together. It’s often customary for the bridal party to join the bride and groom on the dance floor midway through the first dance. However, that leaves spouses or significant others waiting in the wings while their dates tango with groomsmen or bridesmaids. Instead, don’t have assigned partners. Rather, encourage your bridal party members to dance with whomever they choose. • Swap the garter/ bouquet toss for something more meaningful. If you’re part of a couple who feels the garter and bouquet toss has become trite, there are other ways to create special moments in your celebration -- ones that don’t single out the singletons who haven’t yet found their special someones. Use this time to present a small gift or token of your affection to someone on the guest list who has served as a mentor or source of inspiration. • Choose one special component as an extra goodie for guests. Some couples feel the more they offer the better guests will view their wedding. Spending more money doesn’t necessarily mean guests will have a better time. If you want to go above and beyond the ordinary, find one thing that you absolutely love and offer that at the party. It could be a flambe presentation, a chocolate or candy bar, a carving station with your all-time favorite food (even if that’s PB&J), or a carnival-inspired automatic photo booth. • Hire a live performer. Although it’s hard to beat the performance quality of your wedding song being performed by the original artist, unless you’re cousins with Celine Dion, chances are she won’t be available to sing “My Heart Will Go On” at your reception. However, a live band adds a certain level of excitement that a disk jockey may not be able to provide.
