Santa soars into Harper Square

The spirit of giving is alive and well in the Crossroads area as donations are beginning to arrive for the 18th Annual Corinth Rotary Club / Daily Corinthian 2013 Christmas Basket Fund.

The civic club and newspaper have set a $25,000 community fundraising goal this year so 1,000 food baskets can be given away to local families at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7 at the Crossroads Arena.

If the number of applications are any indication, the need this year will be an all-time high for folks who need help with a good holiday meal.

Santa Claus doesn’t need a sleigh when he comes to Corinth.

All he needs is a helicopter, and a few good pilots to fly him to his destination.

On Black Friday, Santa landed in the Harper Square parking lot in front of Gingers -- much to the delight of the large crowd on-hand.

Ginger’s owner, Ginger Stockton, says this is the third year Santa has been the passenger of a helicopter and been delivered to her store. “Three years ago we decided

Holiday promotion benefits local heroes

Arts council presents Christmas concert

The Crossroads area has plenty of local heroes.

However, Sears of Corinth has decided to honor a select group of heroes with their 2013 Charity Campaign.

A holiday “Salute to Local Heroes,� sponsored

by Sears, has selected the Corinth Fire Department as their honorees for this year. “This is a big deal for us and we are thrilled to be the ones selected for this program,� said Fire Chief Billy “Lucky� Briggs. “Out of all the heroes we have in our community it is very humbling. The proceeds collected and given to us will be put to good use by buying some training equipment we really need.�

Craftsman’s Bottle Cap Wrench is the item which will be sold for the charity campaign. Every time a bottle cap wrench is bought, a $2 donation will be made to the CFD for every one sold. The D/9-4133 Craftsman Bottle Cap Wrench is sold at Sears for only $9.99.

Sears Store Manager, Lynda Boswell, said they had a choice on who to pick to receive the proceeds and it was a hard choice.

Some familiar favorites and new faces will take the coliseum stage for Tuesday’s annual community Christmas concert. “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,� presented by the Corinth Area Arts Council at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Corinth Coliseum Civic Center, is about getting the community into the spirit while helping to preserve a historic venue. “I am honored to be a part of a community with a love for our history, preserving our heritage while enriching our future here,� said Arts Council President Cindy Mathis. “Corinth is so fortunate to have many historic buildings intact and thriving. It is the work of the arts council to continue to improve upon and see that restoration projects at the coli-

seum keep up with the needs of this 90-year-old treasure.�

Proceeds from the $10 ticket price help to maintain the building. Funds from past shows have helped with projects such as improved stage lighting and new carpet and furnishings in the inner lobby.

And those improvements help keep the building in top form for events such as weddings, receptions, recitals and meetings. “We want the community to take advantage of this theater,� said Mathis.

Upkeep of the building depends on private and memorial donations and funds from the county government.

we wanted to bring Santa here in grand style,â&#x20AC;? Stockton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We coordinated this with the hospital wing out of Selmer, and they have volunteered to bring him in here each year. When he gets here, he goes around to all the kids waving and then comes into the store for photos.â&#x20AC;?

Stockton said this was just her way of adding another tradition to the Christmas season and making it fun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents around here really enjoy brining their kids out and kicking off the holiday spirit by watching Santa fly in riding in a helicopter,â&#x20AC;? said Stockton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew this would be some added excitement, and it was.â&#x20AC;?

Stockton has found much success in her efforts to make Gingers a â&#x20AC;&#x153;fun place to shop,â&#x20AC;? and she feels like this is just another addition to that motto. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is just something extra I like to do for the community,â&#x20AC;?

The store has a mini theater area for children movie watching and a castle playhouse to keep the children entertained while moms shop.

Adding Santa to the mix just makes it that much more easier entertaining the kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the kids are preoccupied, then the parents can shop,â&#x20AC;? Stockton said.

Oral histories recount World War II

BY VERSHAL HOGAN The Natchez Democrat

NATCHEZ â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Time to hear the stories of the men and women who served the country during World War II is running out, and a local man is working to ensure those stories are preserved.

Mark LaFrancis has always had an affinity and great respect for WWII veterans. His father, uncle and father-in-law served in the war, and he has had a desire for many years to do something that would honor and celebrate their service to the country.

Last year, LaFrancis had an opportunity to interview two veterans of the war, nurse Josephine Kepke and Naval Seabee Harold Gardner. The interviews resulted in the production of a

documentary that only intensified his desire to honor those veterans.

After asking local contacts at the Veterans of Foreign Wars post in Natchez to help him, LaFrancis wrote a grant application to the Mississippi Humanities Council, which approved the funding in early August for LaFrancis to coordinate the project and interview 20 veterans from around the state.

The goal of the program is to create oral histories that will be archived at the University of Southern Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Center for Oral History and Cultural Heritage. LaFrancis also looking to use the interviews for documentaries that can be shown in the veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; communities.

The Contemporary Arts Center dancers under the direction of Volante Jones and Trika Smith will close the show with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nutcracker Blitz.â&#x20AC;?

Between the opening and closing dances will be a mix of contemporary and traditional Christmas tunes by a variety of vocalists. The

Today in history Today is Sunday, Dec. 1, the 335th day of 2013. There are 30 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 1, 1955, Rosa Parks, a black seamstress, refused to give up her seat to a white man on a Montgomery, Ala., city bus. Mrs. Parks was arrested, sparking a year-long boycott of the buses by blacks.

On this date: In 1824, the presidential election was turned over to the U.S. House of Representatives when a deadlock developed between John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, William H. Crawford and Henry Clay. (Adams ended up the winner.)

In 1860, the Charles Dickens novel “Great Expectations” was first published in weekly serial form.

In 1913, the first drivein automobile service station, built by Gulf Refining Company, opened in Pittsburgh.

In 1941, Japan’s Emperor Hirohito approved waging war against the United States, Britain and the Netherlands.

In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Soviet leader Josef Stalin concluded their Tehran conference.

In 1958, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “Flower Drum Song” opened on Broadway.

In 1969, the U.S. government held its first draft lottery since World War II. In 1989, in an extraordinary encounter, Soviet President Mikhail S. Gorbachev met with Pope John Paul II at the Vatican.

In 1992, in Mineola, N.Y., Amy Fisher was sentenced to 5 to 15 years in prison for shooting and seriously wounding Mary Jo Buttafuoco.

New trial sought in NEMCC student’s murder “Accordingly, the constitutional error was harmless and Crawford is not entitled to postconviction relief,” the panel said in its ruling.

The attorney general’s office has a deadline of Monday to file a response to Crawford’s Supreme Court petition.

Crawford, now 43, was sentenced to death in 1994 for the murder and rape of Northeast Mississippi Community College student Kristy Ray in rural Tippah County.

In 1993, Crawford was out on bond awaiting trial on charges of aggravated assault and rape, with a notice he planned to pursue an insanity defense.

Four days before his trial, the 20-year-old Ray was abducted

Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi death row inmate Charles Ray Crawford is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review an alleged constitutional error in his new trial for the slaying of a junior college student.

A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in June upheld a 2012 decision in Mississippi’s Northern District federal court.

Both courts said while Crawford was deprived his Six Amendment right to counsel as it related to a 1993 psychiatric evaluation, prosecutors presented enough evidence to the trial jury to uphold his conviction and sentence even if the evaluation had not occurred.

from her parents’ home in Chalybeate. After his family and attorney notified police that they feared another crime was being committed, Crawford was arrested. Crawford told authorities he did not remember the incident but later led them to the body buried in leaves in a wooded area.

It was after the arrest for Ray’s death that a judge ordered the mental examination.

Crawford later was tried and convicted on the original charges and sentenced to 66 years in prison.

During his trial for Ray’s death, psychiatrists differed on Crawford’s mental condition. Court documents show prosecutors used results of the 1993 examination, which found

Crawford mentally competent, to attack Crawford’s insanity defense in the capital murder case.

Ultimately Crawford was convicted and sentenced to death.

The Mississippi Supreme Court upheld his death sentence in 1998. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case that year.

Crawford was granted an appeal to the 5th Circuit to argue he was subjected to a 1993 psychiatric evaluation without benefit of counsel. The Sixth Amendment protects the rights of criminal defendants to have a lawyer and effective legal representation.

In 2009, the 5th Circuit ordered the Mississippi district court to hear the Sixth Amendment argument.

Municipal officials attend Small Town Conference Over 400 municipal officials from across the state recently attended the Mississippi Municipal League’s Annual Small Town Conference in Tunica, Mississippi.

The purpose of the conference is to give municipal elected officials, particularly those from the smaller cities and towns, the opportunity to meet together and share ideas and challenges unique to their communities.

This year’s conference theme was “Taking Main Street Mainstream” and included presentations from Orion Planning Group, MSU Stennis Institute, Kimberly Medlock, MS Press Association, Dewberry Engineers, Bulter Snow, MS School Boards Association, MSU Extension Service, MS Parks and Recreation Association, Government Consultants, Inc., Phelps Dunbar, MS Department of Health, MS Development Authority and many more.

“The excellent participation in the Small Town Conference exemplifies Mississippi’s local elected officials’ commitment to the continuation of their education.

Citizens everywhere should be heartened

Established in 1931, MML represents 290 city, town and village governments in Mississippi. MML is also af-

filiated with the National League of Cities, a lobbying, legislative, and legal arm representing municipalities before the U.S.

The conference also featured the Certified Municipal Official Graduation Ceremony where 78 municipal officials were recognized for their commitment to the continuation of their education. The CMO program has three levels of certification: basic, advanced and professional development.

The mission of the Mississippi Municipal League is to help cities and towns excel through training, networking and advocacy.

Corinth, Miss.

Tuition gap could shift enrollment As part of the settlement in the Ayers case that challenged segregation in Mississippi’s higher education’s system, the state adopted the same admissions standards for all eight universities.

Prior to that time, it was tougher to get into the historically white universities than the historically black ones — a disparity that federal courts found perpetuated segregation.

Although universal admissions standards have been effective in increasing black enrollment at the historically white schools, they also have brought an unintended consequence. As the state made it easier to get into the three largest universities — Mississippi State, the University of Mississippi and the University of Southern Mississippi, the smaller schools struggled to maintain their enrollments.

A growing new disparity — this time in tuition costs — might help correct that, but it could also bring its own consequence.

Last week, the College Board approved a plan for the next two years that will increase the cost of enrolling at five of the universities, but leave it unchanged at the two Delta schools and Mississippi University for Women.

Next year, on tuition alone, it will be about 17 percent less expensive — more than a $1,000 cheaper — to attend one of these smaller universities than the three largest.

The difference might be enough to better allocate the student populations among the universities, shifting from the overcrowded larger schools to the underutilized smaller ones.

One concern, of course, is that a tuition gap will undo some of the progress Mississippi has made in increasing black enrollments at the comprehensive universities. If the largest schools get priced out of the reach of the state’s poorer families, the minority enrollments of these schools most likely will decline.

It’s a difficult balancing act. Can you prop up student numbers at universities in the heavily black areas of the state without reducing black enrollment elsewhere? What’s more important, diversity or keeping eight universities viable? The state may have to pick.

Corps of Engineers vital to state economy The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers maintains three facilities in our community, the Engineer Research and Development Center, the Mississippi Valley Division headquarters, and the Vicksburg District headquarters.

This week, the Corps hosted state, county and city officials as well as the Vicksburg Warren School District board of trustees. The nature of these visits was to establish the importance of these facilities and the economic impact they have.

ERDC’s 1,700 employees, nearly $190 million in payroll and home to one of the world’s fastest computers is a reason for Vicksburg to be proud. Military value is understated when referring to ERDC, but quality of life is the issue Vicksburg needs to address.

The community needs to work with the bases to assess their needs and concerns and to fix those problems. Access to quality hotel rooms and relocating the entrance to ERDC and providing road access to that entrance to ease the flow of traffic is one of ERDC’s concerns.

Governor Phil Bryant, in a visit to ERDC Thursday, explained what the State of Mississippi could do to encourage expansion for the Corps of Engineers in Vicksburg. “One of the things we’re doing is through the Mississippi Development Authority to provide funding for infrastructure programs, primarily roads. One thing that we’re looking at now is trying to put a new access road into the Corps of Engineers facility here to be able to limit their activities in and around residential communities and to provide better security for the base.”

Tuesday, Barry Rhoades, the state’s government relations consultant in Washington D.C., said another round of Base Realignment and Closures is coming in 2017, and except for a few bases, none are exempt.

The Corps facilities here would not face closure due to the nature of their mission, but they are subject to realignment. Realignment could mean that some of the jobs would be relocated to another facility.

Our community needs to embrace these facilities and realize that everything in our community works together. Without the Corps’ presence, our quality of life would suffer.

Obama and the bad faith presidency At the end of the day, the root of President Barack Obama’s mendacity on Obamacare was simple: He didn’t dare tell people how the law would work. He couldn’t tell people how the law would work.

Forthrightness was the enemy. It served no useful purpose and could only bring peril, and potentially defeat. It had to be banished. Instead, President Obama made the sale on the basis of dubious blandishments and outright deceptions.

If this is the only way to pass your signature initiative -- and a decadeslong goal of your party --it ought to give you pause.

But Obama was a natural at delivering sweeping and sincere-seeming assurances that just weren’t true. This kind of thing is his metier.

If he were awoken at 3 a.m. and told that he had to make the case for nationalizing the banks by denying he was nationalizing the banks, he would do an entirely creditable job of it, even without a teleprompter. The salesmanship for Obamacare represents in microcosm the larger Obama political project, which has always depended

on throwing a reassuring skein of moderation on top of left-wing ideological Rich aims.

All poliLowry ticians are National prone to Review shaving the truth, giving themselves the benefit of the doubt and trying to appear more reasonable than they are. Obama has made it an art form. Bad faith is one of his signal strengths as a politician, and it makes him one of the greatest frontmen progressivism has ever had.

He will never admit his deep bias toward the growth of the federal government, or that he doesn’t care that much if Iran gets the bomb, or that he is liquidating the American leadership role in the Middle East. No, no -- he is just trying to make government work, giving diplomacy a chance and pivoting to Asia, respectively.

In this vein, the things that the president couldn’t say about Obamacare keep mounting. The New York Times reported the other

day on how the word “redistribution,” which aptly describes the law’s intent and effect, is anathema.

“These days the word is particularly toxic at the White House,” according to the paper, “where it has been hidden away to make the Affordable Care Act more palatable to the public and less a target for Republicans, who have long accused Democrats of seeking ‘socialized medicine.’ But the redistribution of wealth has always been a central feature of the law and lies at the heart of the insurance market disruptions driving political attacks this fall.”

Heaven forbid that the president tell people that.

The Times notes that the last time the president mentioned redistribution, it was -- of course -- to say that he wanted nothing to do with it.

The president styles himself a committed pragmatist. At a fundraiser the other day, he averred, “I’m not a particularly ideological person.” He just happened to risk Democratic control of Congress to advance the cause of nationalized health insurance. And happened to insist on the left-most plausible version of the law. And

happened to defend it with every power at his disposal.

In private, the president admits that he has kept his true ideological self carefully under wraps. According to the authors of “Double Down,” Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, Obama brought up climate change in a political strategy meeting in 2011 as an example of his undue caution. “Maybe I should just come out and say what I really feel about this,” he said. “Maybe I should just go out and say what I think about everything.”

As a crazy thought experiment, his aides let him dabble with heartfelt sincerity. To the next meeting he brought a list of causes dear to him, all liberal cliches: climate change, immigration reform, poverty, Israeli-Palestinian peace, closing Gitmo, and gay marriage. Only gay marriage surfaced in the presidential campaign because he couldn’t bear any longer to hide what he really thought on the issue.

He knew the danger of too much forthrightness.

Obama ruins Thanksgiving with latest proposal For some, Thanksgiving is difficult enough with abrasive relatives gobbling up your food without a scintilla of gratitude. Now President Obama comes along with a proposal that could cause turmoil in even the happiest of homes.

The president wants us to discuss politics, immigration reform and Obamacare at our holiday tables. Imagine the scene. One of your kids is home from college, having been indoctrinated by liberal-leaning professors with politics mired in the ‘60s, and he or she begins lecturing Grandpa Joe or Aunt Marie about the necessity of visiting the Obamacare website (if they can get on) and buying health insurance.

Let the bickering begin!

The only thing worse than discussing politics at the dinner table is discussing religion there.

In a speech during a fundraising swing through San Francisco, the president delivered a line that is more laughable than any you’d find in a late-night comedian’s monologue. In support of immigration “reform” the president responded to a group of hecklers demanding he use his executive

powers to stop deportations: “... we’re a nation of laws.

That’s part of our traCal dition. And Thomas so the easy way out is Columnist to try to yell and pretend like I can do something by violating our laws.” Excuse me, but aren’t illegal immigrants the ones who are violating our laws?

Hasn’t President Obama violated the Affordable Care Act by unilaterally offering delays and other incentives to labor unions and favored groups?

As for deportations, according to the Department of Homeland Security, the Obama administration has deported more immigrants annually than the George W. Bush administration.

Wouldn’t that make for a great debate between Uncle George, who hates the idea of lawbreakers entering the country and then demanding citizenship, and Suzie, the college junior, who thinks we shouldn’t have borders anyway and her uncle should catch up with the times? That’s what

President Obama said in his San Francisco speech: “The only thing standing in our way right now is the unwillingness of certain Republicans in Congress to catch up with the rest of the country.” Republican resistance to “the times,” if that means endorsing lawbreakers, is something else for which we should be thankful.

To this president, everything is political, even Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Organizing for Action (OFA), a nonprofit social welfare organization and community organizing project whose agenda closely aligns with that of Obama and the Democratic Party, has come up with talking points for its minions to use as we gather around the turkey platter this holiday season. Here’s the guidance from the OFA script: “At Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, people will be under the misconception that the governmentdesigned health-payment plans are too expensive.

Tell them: There are a variety of plans available in the new health insurance marketplace, so you can pick one that fits your budget.

There’s also financial as-

sistance available based on how much you make.”

As Rush Limbaugh noted on his radio program: “Thanksgiving is a national American holiday, and its purpose is to thank God for the United States of America, and instead Obama acolytes are being propagandized to take over Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners to convince people to give thanks to Obama for Obamacare.”

But then, in 2008, and for far too long afterward, wasn’t Obama treated by much of the media and his youthful followers as a messianic figure with powers unlike any other president or human being, a political superhero able to leap all obstacles in a single bound?

Take my advice: To improve the prospects for a happier holiday season in your house, don’t bring up immigration, Obamacare, or even Obama. Talk about the pilgrims; talk about the Founders. Talk about why you’re thankful for an America that is strong enough to survive its presidents, especially those who turn out to be turkeys.

Proposed smoking ban voted down PHILADELPHIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The board of aldermen in Philadelphia has voted down a proposal to ban smoking in commercial buildings inside the city limits.

The proposed ordinance was considered at the request of Beverly Knox with the Mississippi Tobacco-Free Coalition, who told aldermen that similar ordinances were being adopted in cities across the state to create a healthy environment for residents.

The ordinance would have banned smoking inside buildings and within 15-feet of the front doors.

The Neshoba Democrat reports that the pro-

posal failed on 3-2 vote.

Opponents say they had concerns about telling business owners what they could or could not do in their own buildings and how it would be enforced.

Leflore board cuts funds for drug unit GREENWOOD â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Leflore County Board of Supervisors is pulling its financial support from the North Central Mississippi Narcotics Task Force.

The Greenwood Commonwealth reports that the board took the action this week effective Sunday.

The county administers the budget for the task force, which currently operates in seven counties and three cities.

aNDIe A GraCe

A grant administered by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety once made up the lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share of the agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funding.

The grant is not being renewed.

Leflore County Sheriff Ricky Banks said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unlikely theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll receive any state backing.

Until now, the county has been filling the task forceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget shortfall while the task force waits for grant money and contributions from the participating counties to come in, leaving the county in the red. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re cut off unless we come up another plan on how weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to fund them and how many counties are willing to come in with us,â&#x20AC;?

Nation Briefs Associated Press

Obama shops at well-known Washington bookstore WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama is doing his part to support small businesses.

Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha dropped in Saturday at Washington’s Politics and Prose bookstore and purchased what he said was a “long list” of books that included “The Kite Runner,” “Harold and the Purple Crayon,” and “The Sports Gene.”

The president said he bought a reader for every age, from 5 to 52 — his age. He paid by credit card.

The total was not announced.

Obama sent a tweet earlier Saturday about the importance of supporting small businesses.

The Saturday after Thanksgiving has become known as “Small Business Saturday.” It’s designed to drive business to mom and pop shops between the whirlwind of Black Friday sales offered by large retailers and Cyber Monday deals from online sellers.

Plan calls for ship to destroy Syrian chemical weapons WASHINGTON — Destroying Syria’s deadliest chemical weapons on land would come with vexing diplomatic and security problems as well as environmental issues.

To avoid those potential troubles, U.S. officials say, the Obama administration is exploring the use of a government-owned ship to carry out the disposal in international waters.

Under a plan yet to be approved, the chemicals would be transported to the MV Cape Ray in the Mediterranean Sea. The nearly 700-foot ship, based in Portsmouth, Va., and owned by the Transportation Department’s Maritime Administration, would be outfitted with a special system to

neutralize the chemical material.

U.S. warships would provide an escort and security.

The decision to proceed with the chemical disposal plan at sea would be made by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, a global chemical weapons watchdog agency with 190 member states. In a statement Wednesday in the Netherlands, the watchdog agency said the effort to ship Syria’s chemical arsenal out of the country “continues to pose challenges due to the security situation on the ground.”

No country has committed to disposing of the chemical weapons on its own soil, which is why the U.S. offer to destroy the deadliest of the chemical components at sea is seen as a likely option.

The U.S. officials who disclosed aspects of the U.S. portion of the plan spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about it by name.

Jonathan Lalley, a spokesman for the president’s National Security Council, stressed that no decision had been reached regarding destroying the chemical weapons outside of Syria.

Four killed in plane crash in western Alaska ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A plane crash near the remote western Alaska village of Saint Marys killed four of the 10 people aboard, including an infant boy, an Alaska State Troopers spokeswoman said Saturday.

The pilot and three passengers died in the Friday night crash, spokeswoman Megan Peters said.

Peters said she had no immediate word on the six survivors’ condition but an airline spokeswoman said she understood they were injured.

Jim Hickerson, president of Hageland Aviation, also told the Anchorage Daily News the six survivors were injured.

The wreckage was found about 4 miles east of Saint Marys.

Troopers and an air ambulance service responded to the scene, Peters said.

There was no immediate word on what might have cause the crash. The NTSB planned to send two investigators to the scene Saturday. A Federal Aviation Administration spokesman didn’t immediately respond to an email requesting crash information.

Pioneering offshore wind project faces deadlines BOSTON — As it seeks investors, a project off the Massachusetts coast that aims to be the nation’s first offshore wind farm must reach fast-approaching benchmarks or risk missing out on hundreds of millions in critical funding.

To qualify for a tax credit that would cover a major portion of its capital costs, Cape Wind either must begin construction by Dec. 31 or prove it’s incurred tens of millions of dollars in costs by then.

Also, a $200 million investment — the only one of a specific dollar amount Cape Wind has announced — is conditioned on whether developers can fully finance the rest of the project by year’s end.

With less than two months until the deadline, Cape Wind isn’t publicly discussing financing efforts.

It also has yet to start on-site construction and isn’t detailing how it can qualify for the tax credit, only that it expects to.

Franklin wants review of restitution order ABERDEEN — The former superintendent of a school district in the Mississippi Delta convicted in federal bribery case says he can’t make a $75,000 mid-January restitution payment ordered by a judge.

Former Greenville Public School District superintendent Harvey Franklin was sentenced to 76 months this month for taking more than $270,000 in bribes to influence the school board to use a reading program for children.

He also was ordered to pay $1.2 million in restitution to the U.S. Department of Education — with the first $75,000 due in mid-January.

The Delta Democrat Times reports that Franklin’s attorney, Lisa Ross, filed a motion on Nov. 21 asking U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock for another review of Franklin’s assets. Franklin hasn’t been employed since he resigned as superintendent in May 2012.

Officials look at electronic bidding plan MERIDIAN — Lauderdale County is looking at a system that would allow vendors to bid on local projects electronically and in real time.

The Meridian Star reports that the board of supervisors took no action after hearing this week from Frank Jackson with Electronic Auction Services Inc. Jackson says the system will allow vendors to bid against each other electronically in real time.

Jackson says while vendors do not see each other’s bids during this process, they do see where they rank among bidders and can lower their price.

Jackson says it makes for more competitive, which pushes prices down.

Jackson says the winning vendor pays a fee to the company.

Supervisor Joe Norwood says he would be interested in learning more if it would save the county money.

Water, electricity rate increase in 2014 CLARKSDALE — Clarksdale residents will pay more for electricity and water in 2014.

The Clarksdale Public Utilities Board approved higher rates to take effect Jan. 1. Electricity rates will increase 7 percent and water and sewer rates will rise 10 percent.

Officials tell The Clarksdale Press Register that the new rates should bring in $1.2 million.

The base residential rate for 1,000 kilowatts hours will be $98.32 under the new rate structure.

The board also increased the deposit fee for new water hookups from $30 to $35.

Woman indicted on check cashing scheme OXFORD — A Winston County woman has pleaded not guilty to a two-count federal indictment in which she is accused of forging identification documents to assist with the cashing of a federal government check mailed to someone else.

Federal court documents show 27-year-old Brenda Nunn of Louisville is scheduled for trial Jan. 13 in U.S. District Court in Oxford. Nunn was indicted Nov. 20.

The indictment says two women contacted Nunn about working together to cash the check and split the proceeds.

Court documents show the check was for $7,747 and arrived at one of the women’s home. It was made out to a woman who no longer lived at the address.The indictment says Nunn contacted a check cashing company to vouch for the identification and the woman cashed the check.

Casino revenue slightly up in October JACKSON — Mississippi casinos won a little more money from gamblers in October, a total of about $165.5 million.

Winnings in September were about $164.3 million.

Mississippi Department of Revenue figures show statewide casino revenue in October of 2012 was about $167.4 million.

The 12 coastal casinos won $83.2 million from gamblers in October. The 18 river casinos from Tunica to Natchez won $82.2 million.

Hanging in there when the going gets tough when you feel weighed down.

Get back up when you stumble. Don’t become discouraged.

Failure occurs only when you quit. Failure is simply the discovery of something that didn’t work as planned. Failure is a learning experience. Success is not possible without these seminars. The key is to just keep going.

You never know how close you are to success. Often, it’s nearer than you think. This makes it even more imperative to never give up. You may be exhausted, drained, and frustrated, but forward is the direction you must go. It doesn’t matter how small your steps are, as long as you keep taking them.

Problems are challenges you have to overcome on your path to success. There is always a solution to every problem. Successful people become adept at finding solutions to whatever problems they encounter.

Each day is a new begin-

This is a continuation of the previous column’s strategies on how to hang in there when going through tough times.

It’s important to remember that tough times don’t last but you will make it through them with the right approach.

Keep smiling. Anyone can smile when all is well. The real Bryan power of a smile Golden is maintaining it during a downDare to Live Without Limits turn. When you smile you feel better. Furthermore, there are no negative side effects. So smile, especially when you don’t feel like it.

Maintain your sense of humor. Just like smiling, laughing improves your mood. When you find humor, it helps you endure and keep things in perspective.

It’s good to laugh, especially

You never know how close you are to success.

Often, it’s nearer than you think. ning. Take things one day at a time and deal with one thing at a time. Your most important day is today. Don’t project a negative future. People get overwhelmed when they worry about what will happen in the coming days, weeks, or months.

You need to handle whatever is in front of you right now.

Limit your exposure to negative influences. There is no shortage of naysayers. People will line up to tell you why you are in trouble and won’t succeed. Don’t listen to them.

Don’t waste time trying to alter their minds. Change the topic and talk about something else.

Regardless of who you are and what you do, there will always be people who dislike you, and there’s nothing you can do about it. It is wasted effort attempting to win them over.

They may try to make you feel bad. If you pay attention to them, it will be harder for you to hang on.

Everyone has problems. Circumstances may not seem fair.

It is frustrating but you have to deal with what is. Avoid harboring feelings of bitterness, anger or resentment. These emotions hinder your progress while poisoning your mind and body.

Focus on the action you need to take in order to get where you want to be.

You will encounter circumstances you have no control over.

However, you do have control over your responses. You can’t control the weather but you can use an umbrella. Lamenting what you are facing isn’t effective use of your time. You are much

better served by focusing on what your next step should be.

Make an accurate and honest assessment of where you are and what you have to do. Lying to yourself or denying reality only exacerbates your situation.

Recognizing any mistakes you have made puts you in a better position to take corrective action.

Life is not easy but you can hang in there through challenging times. A positive attitude and outlook is essential.

Although there may be many things outside of your influence, you do have total control over your thoughts and actions.

New ship’s Kirk is used to the ‘Star Trek’ jokes

BY DAVID SHARP Associated Press

BATH, Maine — Capt.

Kirk’s futuristic-looking vessel sports cutting-edge technology, new propulsion and powerful armaments, but this ship isn’t the Starship Enterprise.

The skipper of the stealthy Zumwalt is Navy Capt. James Kirk, and yes, he’s used to the jokes about the name he shares with the TV starship commander played by actor William Shatner.

Kirk takes it in stride.

“I don’t take any offense,” he told The Associated Press in an interview. “If it’s a helpful moniker that brings attention to help us to do what we need to do to get the ship into the fleet and into combat operations, then that’s fine.”

While it’s no starship, the technology-laden Zumwalt taking shape at Maine’s Bath Iron Works is unlike any other U.S. warship.

The Navy’s largest destroyer will feature a composite deckhouse with

hidden radar and sensors and an angular shape that minimizes its radar signature. Its unusual wavepiercing hull will reduce the ship’s wake.

It’s the first U.S. surface warship to use electric propulsion, and its power plant is capable of producing enough electricity to light up a small city and to power future weapons like the electromagnetic rail gun.

Inside, it’s just as unique. The number of sailors needed to stand watch will be reduced through the use of cameras and video monitors that show what’s going on outside. The bridge will indeed look like something from “Star Trek” with two chairs surrounded by nearly 360 degrees of video monitors.

A handful of reporters accompanying Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Thursday got a first look at the ship’s interior while it’s under construction.

It’s due to be christened in the spring.

Retailers were one of two industry groups in the S&P 500 to rise as the busiest shopping day of the year, Black Friday, got underway.

More than a dozen major chains opened on Thanksgiving Day and planned to keep their doors open through Friday, the traditional start to the holiday shopping season. Crowds formed early and often throughout the two days.

Investors will be following sales trends closely to get a read on the health of retailers, as well as the wider economy. Consumer spending is a critical component of the U.S. economy.

Shares of EBay, Amazon and Best Buy all advanced.

Stocks rose for most of the day Friday, but petered out in the last half hour of trading. The New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq closed early, at 1 p.m. Eastern Time, and activity was lower than average a day after Thanksgiving.

Doting granddad overspends with his time and his money DEAR ABBY: I am ready to explode. My father-in-law dotes on my 16-year-old daughter, who is his only grandchild. The biggest issue, aside from his overspending, is that he takes her to and from school every day and then expects to stay and visit.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to sit and chitchat with him about the same old stuff over and over. My husband doesn’t want to be involved. (He doesn’t get home until after his father has left, anyway.) It would probably end up in a nasty fight.

I want to politely make “Dad” understand that he doesn’t need to come in every single day. I know he will think we are being negative or against him personally, and from past events, I don’t want to come across in this manner. Please help. -- TOO MUCH OF A “GOOD” THING IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR TOO MUCH: Obviously, your father-in-law doesn’t have enough going on in his life to fill his time. Things won’t change until you manage to set some boundaries.

It would not be “negative against him” if you had to go out and run errands or your daughter had to do homework after she gets home from school. It would also not be negative, since you don’t have time to sit and chat, to ask him to pitch in and help with the chores.

You might also suggest that he do some volunteer work to fill his time.

But you will have to Abigail schedule a for him Van Buren time to feel welcome -- perDear Abby haps a Sunday dinner -- when your husband is home and can help to entertain his father.

DEAR ABBY: We are the parents of two adult children. We have always lived below our means so we could save for college expenses and retirement.

Now that our two sons have finished college (with no debt), we splurged and purchased two luxury vehicles.

Our oldest son, “Sam,” lives in another state but comes into town for business and pleasure, and when he does, he wants to borrow one of our cars. Although Sam has a good driving record, we are hesitant to loan him one of them. He is no longer on our car policy and can well afford to rent a car.

Sam is upset with us and says from now on he will stay with friends. I offered to share the rental expense, but my husband said Sam is an adult now and re-

sponsible for his own expenses.

Are we being unreasonable by not letting him borrow one of our cars? -- CONFLICTED IN DALLAS DEAR CONFLICTED: You have been generous with your children. Many students finish college with a mountain of debt. It appears that Sam is less interested in what you have done for him than what you WILL do. He’s acting like a spoiled brat, and I hope you will stick to your guns because your husband is right.

DEAR ABBY: Over many years of travel in the U.S. and Europe, I have collected postcards picturing the main sights. Now it is time to toss the trip memorabilia, but the cards are in pristine condition. Any suggestion as to what could be done with them?

-- GLOBETROTTER OUT WEST DEAR GLOBETROTTER: If there are schools in your area that offer art classes to the students, you might be able to donate the postcards as material to be used in art projects. Or contact nearby senior centers and ask if they would like to have them to be used for discussion groups or art classes.

(They would be wonderful for decoupage projects.)

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Your expectations of yourself are always changing. You want to require more, but you don’t want to require so much that you set yourself up to fail. Baby steps are best.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You’ve heard enough excuses from people who are not ready to take action to know that most of the problems they bring up aren’t real; they’re just procrastination tactics. You won’t let yourself get away with such excuses today.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Avoid murkiness. By becoming clear, you’ll also become strong.

When your intentions, thoughts and words are aligned, you’ll get the point across about who you are and what you want.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’re going to fight for something. One strategy is to bring the battle to the other party and put them on the defensive. However, this tactic will only work if they don’t see it coming.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be teaching again. Remind your students that even the most solidseeming bit of knowledge is not foolproof. If you can inspire them to question everything, you’ve taught them a lot.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The selfish people in your life may cause you pain, but they have their advantages, too. For instance, you don’t have to worry about how you’re going to entertain them. All you have to do is listen to them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Don’t be afraid. Whatever comes, you can take it. If it hurts, it will make you bolder. If it’s troubling, it will make you smarter. If it’s good, let it make you happy.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Some animals get aggressive when looked straight in the eye.

Some run off, spooked. You’ll use eye contact effectively, taking a different approach with each person.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). You have a way of making people feel relaxed. Of course, some people are harder to pacify than others. When your usual methods don’t work, look at it as an invitation to explore new options.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your plan will work if you have the right people involved, people who will follow your directions with a smile. If you sense that you don’t have a good crew, now is the time to change the lineup.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

No one who loves as much as you do should wind up feeling worn out and unloved at the end of the day. So don’t forget to accept love in return. That part is crucial; it keeps you from burnout.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In general, you laugh much more than you cry. Today a good friend will have you in stitches. The next time you do cry, remember the laughter today that offset the balance.

County boys clubs split in LTC finale

BY H. LEE SMITH lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth Warriors could only hope for their third overtime game in five starts.

Chris McNeal drained a long 3-point with six seconds remaining, sending Jackson South Side to a 61-58 win in fifth of seven games Saturday at the Lighthouse Thanksgiving Classic.

In other Alcorn County action, the Lady Warriors fell 5143 to Hardin County (Tenn.) while the Biggersville Lions got a huge fourth quarter to rally past Mt. Pleasant (Tenn.) 7367.

The first-year, two-day event featured 13 games, including many close battles and out-

standing individual performances.

McNeal scored a game-high 25 points while being named game MVP. The junior scored South Side’s final five points in the final 59 seconds of play after the Tennessee club went 3:15 without scoring.

Corinth had tied the game at 58-58 after Raheem Sorrell, who scored a team-high 18 points, drained a pair of free throws with 36 seconds remaining.

South Side called timeout, then milked the clock to under 10 seconds before McNeal tickled the twine.

“We had a hand in his face, the kid just knocked down a big shot,” said Corinth Head Coach

Keith Greene. “Obviously, you don’t want to foul on a threepoint shot.”

Corinth had the ball length of the floor with 4.8 seconds remaining, but couldn’t get off a potential game-tying shot.

Corinth (4-1) jumped out to a 5-0 lead and expanded the advantage to 15-8 at the 3:30 mark on the second of consecutive three-pointers by Desmin Harris.

South Side began forcing turnovers and closed the gap to 17-15 at the horn after fighting back to knot the game in the closing seconds.

After maintaining possession the first 5:12 of the contest, Corinth turned the ball over six times the final 2:48 of the first.

Ten more miscues in the second allowed South Side a 15-8 advantage and a 30-25 lead at the break.

“We didn’t change our trap or press offense, it just came down to decisions,” said Greene.

“When it came time to attack, pass fake or penetrate, we made bad decisions.”

Corinth was much better at ball security in the second half with only eight turnovers, but the final and 24th came while holding the ball for a final shot in a tied game and led to a McNeal layup.

Jaylen Barford added 13 and Malik Hicks chipped in 12 for Jackson.

Ole Miss beats PSU Associated Press

NEW YORK — Mississippi coach Andy Kennedy called the play down the stretch of Marshall Henderson and Jarvis Summers “huge.” Then he gave a quick look into the differences of the players who led the undefeated Rebels to a 79-76 victory over Penn State on Saturday in the championship game of the Barclays Center Classic.

Both Summers and Henderson scored 19 points and they combined for 11 of Mississippi's last 12 points in the game over the final 5:36.

“Jarvis is our leading scorer coming in and he was in foul trouble both games here but he is our most experienced player and when they hit us in the mouth in the second half he got in his rhythm,” Kennedy said. “I trust him. He was the guy who made plays for us.”

Then there's Henderson, the free spirit and star of last season's Mississippi team that advanced to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2002 but who was suspended for his actions toward fans after the loss to La Salle.

“Marshall does what Marshall does,” Kennedy said. “He plays around and takes crazy shots and changes the ebb and flow of the game. I see him make one 3 and then play close attention. He can shoot it a couple more times really quickly.”

Henderson was suspended for the season opener and will miss the first two Southeastern Conference games for the antics with fans in the regular season, SEC tournament and NCAA tournament. He was suspended in July after police found him with small amounts of marijuana and cocaine during a traffic stop.

Henderson, who is not made available to the media, had a quick encounter with some fans in the sparse crowd of 3,088 at Barclays Center in the second half and referee Ted Valentine took him to the bench for a quick meeting with Kennedy.

Davis’ return lifts Auburn past Bama Associated Press

AUBURN, Ala. — That crazy tipped pass for a long game-winning touchdown is now the second-most stunning and improbable play of Auburn’s wild season.

Yes, the Tigers found a way to top “The Immaculate Deflection.”

Chris Davis returned a missed field-goal attempt more than 100 yards for a touchdown on the final play to lift No. 4 Auburn to a 3428 victory over No. 1 Alabama on Saturday, upending the two-time defending na-

tional champions’ BCS hopes and preserving the Tigers’ own.

“We’re a team of destiny,” Davis said. “We won’t take no for an answer.”

He delivered a play that deserves its own nickname. Say the Happiest Return. Or the saddest, depending on which side of the Iron Bowl you sit.

Davis caught the ball about 9 yards deep in the end zone after freshman Adam Griffith’s 57-yard attempt fell short. He then sprinted down the left sideline and cut back with nothing but team-

mates around him in a second straight hard-to-fathom finish for the Tigers (11-1, 7-1 Southeastern Conference).

“I knew when I caught the ball I would have room to run,” Davis said. “I knew they would have big guys on the field to protect on the field goal.

“When I looked back, I said, ‘I can’t believe this.’”

Auburn clinched a spot in the SEC championship game with the stunning victory over the powerhouse from across the state. The Crimson Tide (11-1, 7-1) several

times seemed poised to continue its run toward the first three-peat in modern college football, but couldn’t put the Tigers away.

Asked if it was the biggest win of his career, Tigers coach Gus Malzahn said: “It ranks right up there.” But he said he’d “probably” still celebrate just like he has since his high school coaching days: With a Waffle House meal.

“That’s what you coach for, that’s what these kids play for, to get a chance to win the SEC championship,” Malzahn said.

No. 5 Missouri stops A&M, wins SEC East Associated Press

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Henry Josey broke loose for the go-ahead score on a 57-yard run with 3:34 to go and No. 5 Missouri wrapped up the SEC East, riding a strong second half to a 28-21 victory over No. 19 Texas A&M on Saturday night.

Missouri (11-1, 7-1 SEC) advances to the conference championship game against Auburn — a matchup of schools very lightly regarded before the season. Missouri has made a six-win improvement from its initial SEC season and fourth-ranked Auburn (11-1, 7-1) has topped

last year’s total by eight after stunning No. 1 Alabama.

Texas A&M’s Johnny Manziel was held in check for the second straight week, throwing one touchdown pass and rushing for 21 yards on 11 carries. He was 24 for 35 for 195 yards.

Thousands of fans among a sellout crowd of 62,197 — nearly all of them clad in black, stormed the field after the game ended. The field wasn’t cleared for at least 20 minutes.

Missouri had been 11-44 under Pinkel when trailing at the half. Pinkel has 101 wins in 13 seasons at Missouri,

tied for Don Faurot for most in school history.

Texas A&M has one of the worst defenses against the run in the nation, allowing 221 yards per game. Until Josey’s breakaway run, the Aggies had done a nice job.

Starting from its 34, Josey carried for 4 yards and quarterback James Franklin ran for 5 yards. Josey busted free up the middle on thirdand-1.

Texas A&M never threatened the rest of the game.

Tra Carson broke two tackles on a 31-yard scoring run that was also the first touchdown allowed by Missouri in

the first quarter in six games.

Derel Walker’s 32-yard reception made it 14-7 late in the half.

Walker’s score came just 1:10 after Franklin’s 38-yard touchdown pass to L’Damian Washington. Manziel rolled out to buy time and Michael Sam tackled him a beat too late.

Early in the second quarter, Missouri failed to capitalize on a lost fumble by punt returner De’Vante Harris at the A&M 36. Backup Maty Mauk got his usual early series at quarterback and Missouri lost a yard on three plays before punting.

No. 2 FSU rolls in Swamp, stays unbeaten Associated Press

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Jameis Winston threw three touchdown passes to Kelvin Benjamin, and No. 2 Florida State moved a step closer to playing for the national championship with a 37-7 victory against rival Florida on Saturday.

The Seminoles improved to 12-0 for the first time since 1999 and likely will earn a spot in the Bowl Championship Series title game by beating Duke in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game next Saturday.

Florida, meanwhile, ended its worst season since 1979.

The Gators (4-8) lost

their final seven games and missed a bowl for the first time since 1990. Florida’s bowl streak had been the second-longest in the country, behind Florida State.

The Seminoles were fourtouchdown favorites in this lopsided matchup — that lived up to advance billing.

Although the outcome was never in doubt, the Gators made it interesting early with some stout defense.

They hit Winston several times, even late once, and stuffed FSU’s running game.

But with its offense floundering once again — Florida managed just three first downs in the first half —

the defense eventually wore down.

And Winston & Co. took advantage.

Winston, the Heisman Trophy candidate being investigated for his role in an alleged rape, hooked up with Benjamin for touchdown passes of 45 and 29 yards in the second quarter. Winston found his 6-foot-5 target again in the third, a 56-yard connection that would have gone the distance had Benjamin not fallen down while making the catch.

Devonta Freeman scored on the next play, weaving untouched from 11 yards out and putting the Seminoles

ahead 27-0.

Winston and Benjamin recorded the hat trick with a 4-yard score in the fourth.

FSU outgained Florida 456-193, most of it through the air.

Winston completed 19 of 31 passes for 327 yards. Benjamin caught nine passes for a career-high 212 yards, beating Loucheiz Purifoy early and often. Benjamin’s previous high was 103 yards receiving at Boston College earlier this year.

About the only thing that went wrong for FSU was that testy exchange between Winston and coach Jimbo Fisher in the fourth quarter.

History

1B • Daily Corinthian

Sunday, December 1, 2013

Civil War celebrities Some of war’s most famous figures passed through Corinth I keep waiting for somebody really famous to walk through the doors of the Interpretive Center. We’ve had a few actors, authors, and the occasional politician, and I suppose most of them can claim fame in one way or another. I’m still waiting for the actual celebrity, someone who I can just drop their name and not have to explain to you why I think they are famous.

Of course back in the Civil War days there were a number of people who came through town who were absolute household names in their day.

You may not recognize some of them now, but the followTom ing four Parson guys were downright Park Ranger celebrities way back when.

A good place to start is with Ulysses S. Grant.

Sure he was the only general on either side who orchestrated the capture of three entire armies; he was also the first fourstar general in American history. If that wasn’t enough, the bearded general who had his headquarters where our City Hall stands was also the 18th president of the United States.

The truth is, Corinth was almost Grant’s swan song. His boss, General Halleck, was not pleased with Grant after Shiloh and reduced Grant’s influence by promoting him to “second-in-command” of the army group. It sounds like a good deal but it really wasn’t. Halleck routinely bypassed Grant and kept him so out of the loop that Grant had very little input to operations during the Siege.

It got so bad that Grant was determined to resign his commission. He was actually in the process of packing his bags when his friend Gen. Sherman found him and talked him out of it. Just a few weeks later Halleck had been reassigned to D.C. and Grant was once again in command. Who knows what might have happened had he quit?

And yet Grant was not the only future president to walk the streets of

Maj. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant

Maj. Gen. Lew Wallace

Brig. Gen. James A. Garfield Corinth during the war.

James Garfield, the 20th president, was the commander of a brigade that got into a little scrap to the northeast of town during the Siege. The affair on May 6th was small compared to a battle that was observed by a private between Garfield and a number of lice. Yes, you heard right, lice.

“I well remember seeing, one day, a celebrated, robust brigadier general, who was afterward President of the United States,

engaged in chasing the pediculus along the seams of his nether garment, which was spread out on his knees in regulation style. The general had wondered some distance back of his headquarters, and getting behind the largest tree he could find applied his energies to the work of ‘skirmishing,’ while the setting sun cast a mellow glow over the touching scene.”

Then there was the Welsh soldier-of-fortune, Henry Morton Stanley.

Henry Morton Stanley Henry came through Corinth in March of ’62 during the Confederate build-up prior to Shiloh.

He was a private in the “Dixie Grays,” a company of the 6th Arkansas Infantry. On the second day of the battle Henry was made a prisoner and

shipped off to a prison camp in Illinois. Since the young Brit wasn’t particularly loyal to either side he joined the Union army to escape the horrible conditions. A few months later he took a discharge and returned to Britain.

Henry became a jour-

Grant: Union general’s papers at home at MSU

BY M. SCOTT MORRIS The Associated Press

STARKVILLE — Ulysses S. Grant and Mississippi go way back.

During the Civil War, his forces fought at Shiloh, Tenn., and into North Mississippi in the spring of 1862. By the end of that year, the siege of Vicksburg began and lasted until July 4, 1963, when Union troops successfully took the Mississippi River city.

Despite that contentious history, Grant and Mississippi have a future together.

The 18th president of the United States was born in Ohio and buried in New York, but a large part of his legacy resides at Mississippi State University’s Mitchell Memorial Library.

It’s a massive archive of original letters, diaries, photographs and other memorabilia, as well as copies of Grant’s papers that are on file at the National Archives, the

Library of Congress and around the world.

Among the contents is an order Grant wrote while in Oxford that President Lincoln promptly rescinded. In addition, there’s a real-life piece of an abolitionist leader, as well as photographs of the most well-attended funeral of all time.

“We’re talking about 16,000 linear feet of materials,” said Ryan Semmes, assistant archivist with MSU’s Congressional and Political Research Center.

“We are amazed. Every week we find something here. Not lost, just waiting to be found again.”

The collection is a treasure trove for scholars, students and lovers of history, and just about everyone who visits has one question on their minds.

“They want to know why Mississippi? That’s the first thing people ask,” said John Marszalek, executive director and managing editor of the Ulysses S. Grant Presidential

Library.

The answer goes back to the 1960s, when the Ulysses S. Grant Association decided to collect all of his letters, manuscripts and other items in one place.

It started at Ohio State in 1962 then moved to Southern Illinois University in 1964 until 2008, when the association decided to move the collection to MSU. “Dr. Marszalek is a nationally and internationally known scholar,” said Frances Coleman, dean of University Libraries.

“When he was made executive director of the collection that had a lot to do with its coming here.”

The Giles distinguished professor emeritus, Marszalek taught history at MSU since 1972, and had retired twice. He came out of retirement again when asked to take the executive director’s role after his predecessor, a professor at Southern Illinois, died.

Cole and MSU President Mark Keenum also campaigned to get the collection in Starkville.

“It came here because Mississippi State made the best offer, the best arrangements and offered the best support,” Marszalek said.

“Our wanting the collection here was on behalf of students,” Cole said.

“We recognized its value in support of history and the scholarship of history.

It took an out-of-court settlement to get Southern Illinois University to relinquish the collection.

Since the move, the 31st and 32nd volumes of Grant’s papers have been published. Almost all of the volumes have been digitized and made available online.

Marszalek said there are plans to publish an annotated version of Grant’s autobiography, a hugely popular book in its day.

The items on display include a massive book

called “Seven Mile Funeral Cortege of Genl.

Grant,” a hard-bound book of photographs depicting the mourning that followed Grant’s death on July 23, 1885.

The archive has afforded MSU students the chance to get familiar with what it means to actually work with history.

By its very nature, such a vast archive of materials is unwieldy.

“Our job as archivists is to make the process of finding things easier,” Semmes said. “Still, there are 16,000 feet of linear materials, so we can’t go item by item. We have to group items together.”

That means the archive is ripe for discovery, and scholars from around the country and the world have come to plumb its depths.

MSU is in the planning stages to expand Mitchell Memorial Library.

That would provide more space for the collection that continues to grow.

nalist for the New York Herald and was sent on an expedition into the dark heart of Africa in search of a missing Scottish missionary and explorer. He found the wayward adventurer and supposedly uttered the famous line, “Doctor Livingston, I presume?”

Next in line is Major General Lew Wallace.

Lew was a division commander at the Battle of Shiloh and he ran afoul of General Grant when his division arrived on the field much later than his boss had expected. There was a falling out between the two men that was never repaired. At any rate, Lew came to Corinth during the Siege but he didn’t play a major role in the military operations. His division was part of the Reserve Corps and was in town for only a few days before they were sent off to Bolivar, Tennessee.

In the days following the Battle of Corinth it looked like Wallace might return to our town. He was given new orders to report to Grant and it looks like he was slated to replace General Rosecrans as the commander of the Corinth garrison.

Grant even informed the interim commander, Gen. Dodge, to expect Wallace’s arrival any day.

And then Wallace just fell off the map. His name pops up here and there in the official records indicating his postings at backwater sites in Indiana and Ohio and it was more luck than design that put him in command of Union forces at the Battle of Monocacy, Maryland.

Lew came back into the public eye when he sat on the tribunal that tried the conspirators in the Lincoln Assassination and then in later years he was made the Governor of the New Mexico Territory.

While he was governor he met with the infamous Billy Bonney a.k.a. Billythe-Kid, and nearly gave the young gunslinger a pardon.

The greatest fame for Lew came from his use of the pen. He wrote a book that became the best-selling novel of the 19th century: “Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ.” Why, if it wasn’t for Lew we would have never seen that awesome chariot race and Charlton Heston would have never won the Oscar.

Confederate James Longstreet abandoned his attempted siege of Knoxville, Tenn., on Dec. 4, 1863, withdrawing from the area after his failed bid to weaken the Union’s growing grip on the state.

Although the Confederate attempt to take Knoxville had ended, the fighting was not yet over in this corner of Tennessee.

More skirmishing and battles would continue in December 1863 as Longstreet’s forces clashed with Union forces at various sites. Longstreet would eventually pull out of the area entirely.

At 65, Kenny Loggins sings on with Blue Sky Riders

BY LEANNE ITALIE Associated Press

NEW YORK — Logic, it turns out, isn’t always the way to go, at least not for Kenny Loggins.

Had he listened to that particular little voice in his head, the two-time Grammy winner with 12 platinum records would be kicking back at home right now in Santa Barbara, Calif. Instead, at 65, he’s hitting the stage and studio with a whole new act and a whole new sound nearly five decades into his music career.

He’s got three songs on a CD tucked inside a new “Frosty the Snowman” picture book out on Imagine, Peter Yarrow’s imprint.

But he’s been making serious music with the Blue Sky Riders, his country rock trio with Nashville’s Gary Burr and Georgia Middleman. They have a new Christmas CD, “Finally Home,” co-

produced by Peter Asher and featuring a tune called “Dream” that has this line: “You take the glory days/ I’ll take what’s on its way/ No one can tell me my best days are done.”

The Associated Press: How has storytelling changed for you?

Loggins: At the beginning of my career, Loggins and (Jimmy) Messina, Jimmy was my mentor.

I had not done anything professionally, so it was all a period of learning and just kind of sitting back and watching, seeing how things were done. Then when I went solo I started to take what I’d learned and put it into action. No matter what phase of life you’re in, it’s always a learning procedure. Then when I hit this third act, as some people are calling it, I discovered that I had a pretty clear picture of the kind of thing I wanted to do for this next part of my life. ... In ‘Dream,’ ‘Too old

Cryptoquip

to dream’ became this pivotal phrase that Georgia developed into the chorus of the song, that sometimes logic doesn’t win out, that the heart and the passion has got to win out.

AP: Are there similarities between your blend with Messina and your blend with Gary?

Loggins: The blend with Messina is more akin to the Everly Brothers.

There’s a certain nasal, edgy thing that Jimmy and I had in common. We wrote two songs together in the six years that we were together, but Loggins and Messina was Jimmy doing his thing and Kenny doing his thing and then we’d bring it together to blend it. Blue Sky Riders is very much a writing machine. We write together as a trio. Ninetyeight percent of what we have on the new record we wrote together. And we do the vocal arrangements as we’re writing the songs, so

it’s much more of a partnership, a family. And we love and respect each other, and it’s been a great ride. I hope that it holds.

AP: Part of how Blue Sky Riders has financed the group is through house parties. Are you all still doing those?

Loggins: We are doing house parties. We also play gigs now that the price of the gig has gone up enough that we can use that money. We’ve taken none of the money we’ve made, either through gigs or house parties, personally. And we were just debating today if we could take a couple of thousand individually ‘cause, you know, Christmas is coming and they need the dough.

AP: You’ve written all these songs. You’ve collaborated on numerous others. Are you hurting for money?

Loggins: Sometimes, yeah. The second divorce was a problem. But it’s not

ferent game, I’m not sure one that I will even bother playing. Radio is still powerful, but the point being that things have changed and there are new rules and new ways to play the game and so part of the fun of jumping back in the pool is to learn the new rules.

AP: What would you be doing today, what would you have done with yourself, if not music?

Loggins: I really don’t know. I’ve thought about that a lot, as to what I would have fallen back on, you know. I actually thought about it a lot when I was 50 and considered retiring, and I just saw that it wasn’t going to work, that I had been in music and songwriting since I graduated high school and so I’ve really learned nothing else, that I am an expert at what I do and an idiot at everything else, for better or for worse.

‘A Christmas Story’ at 30: Film now part of the family

BY THOMAS J. SHEERAN Associated Press

Crossword

that I’m hurting for money as much as I need to stay creative. ... When Columbia Records dropped me from the label and I flirted with the idea of retiring, I found that I was getting very depressed. And that I needed to write. I needed to record in order to stay alive, to stay in touch with my own juice, and that made me happier and therefore I became a better dad, an easier person to live with.

AP: How has the music industry changed for you?

Do you find yourself cynical about it as a whole?

Loggins: I think that the music industry has changed dramatically, as we know, from the mama, papa stores, you know, and getting a record played on the radio one city at a time. You know, the monolithic ownership of radio stations has homogenized the playlists now so getting on the radio is a completely dif-

CLEVELAND — Even after three decades, the triple-dog dare doesn’t get old.

The film “A Christmas Story” opened 30 years ago to mixed reviews but has shown its staying power as a holiday family favorite. Cleveland, where parts of the movie were filmed and hard-luck Ralphie dreamed big, is celebrating the anniversary with iconic leg lamps, holiday store windows like the ones that drew Ralphie’s wide-eyed stares, and stage and musical versions of “A Christmas Story.”

“It becomes part of your fabric for your whole life,” said Kevin Moore, managing director of the Cleveland Play House, where the stage version of the story has become a holiday staple.

In the film, starring Darren McGavin as the father, 9-year-old Ralphie was transfixed by the brightly decorated storefront windows. And he dreamed of getting an air rifle as a Christmas gift, despite warnings that he might shoot his eye out.

The plot follows his determined gift-begging, his encounters with bullies and his family’s daily hopes and dreams — including a lamp in the form of a shapely leg.

The Cleveland house where Ralphie’s film family lived will highlight the anniversary Friday and Saturday with appearances by original cast members and a BB gun range in the backyard.

The movie wasn’t widely acclaimed when it debuted, with favorable reviews barely outnumbering bad mentions like the one that grumped, “Bah, humbug” in the headline. But its quirky humor and love-in-family message struck a chord with audiences.

Like any holiday favorite, a sense of wonder is

needed for “A Christmas Story” and 8-year-old Colin Wheeler thinks he has one to match Ralphie’s.

“We both have really big imaginations,” boasted Colin, who plays Ralphie in “A Christmas Story” musical at Cleveland’s Near West Theater.

It’s not easy playing Ralphie in that ill-fitting pink bunny suit, Colin said.

“I’ll tell you one thing that’s hard: it’s really hard not to laugh” while wearing that suit, Colin said.

Across town, the Cleveland Play House production of “A Christmas Story” attracts multigenerational audiences of children, parents and grandparents, Moore said.

The appeal in Ralphie’s blue-collar hometown is simple, Moore said. “It’s just a really quirky and yet incredibly sweet story and that resonates with Cleveland,” he said.

The Horseshoe Casino Cleveland has been decorated for the season to highlight the film’s roots in the department store now housing the casino, with leg lamps atop some of the slot machines.

Sheryl Peet, emerging from the casino, said she appreciates the movie and its humor, without regard to its Cleveland connections. “I like it.

It’s got comedy, fun, Ralphie,” she said.

At “A Christmas Story” house overlooking humming steel mills, visitors can re-enact movie scenes including ducking under the 1940s-style kitchen sink or looking out the back door where Ralphie trudged through the faux snow.

The movie “snow” was actually mostly firefighting foam, pressed into service amid a cold but rare snowless stretch during filming in winter-hardy Cleveland.

Jim Moralevitz, now 73, lives down the street from “A Christmas Story” house and landed a cam-

eo role in the film helping deliver the crate carrying the leg lamp.

The entrepreneur who developed the house as a tourist attraction, Brian Jones, gave Moralevitz a leg lamp seven years ago and it’s mounted in a 6-foot outdoor Plexiglas box near the peak of the front roof. People sometimes mistake it for “A Christmas Story” house and stop to visit.

In the neighborhood, “I’m known for the most drive-by shootings (filming),” said Moralevitz, a retired tour guide stepping back into his old role for comic effect.

Like many of the best holiday classics, the risky business turns cheerful at the end. Now families get together at holiday gatherings to watch the movie or crowd theater performances.

“It fills up the seats because it’s a family experience,” Moore said.

The anniversary of the movie will be marked beyond Cleveland, with versions on stage from Boston to California. The musical has returned to Broadway for another run.

A new bronze statue of the “triple-dog dare” tongue-grabbing flagpole scene is on display in time for the holidays in Hammond, Ind., hometown of Jean Shepherd, whose stories inspired the 1983 movie. One of the boys in the movie takes the dare and gets his tongue stuck on the icy pole. The Hammond reproduction has become a big hit since it was dedicated in October, with families stopping by to take their Christmas card photos.

But mimicking Hollywood might be risky, according to Nicki Mackowski with the tourist agency in Hammond.

“We’re working on putting up signs as the cold weather gets here. You know: ‘Lick at your own risk’ kind of thing,” she said.

Springsteen ‘Born to Run’ manuscript for sale The Associated Press

NEW YORK — A handwritten working manuscript of Bruce Springsteen’s 1975 hit “Born to Run” will be offered at auction on Dec. 5, with a presale estimate of $70,000 to $100,000, Sotheby’s said Wednesday.

The seller was not revealed. The auction house said the document used to be in the collection of Springsteen’s former manager, Mike Appel.

Sotheby’s said most of the lines in this 1974 version, written in Long Branch, N.J., are apparently unpublished and unrecorded, but the manuscript does include “a nearly perfected chorus.”

“The imagery and tone are constant from the present manuscript to the final song,” the auctioneer said.

There are also some words in the margins: “Wild” and “Angels” and a word that looks like “ve-

locity,” with the letter “t’’ in Springsteen’s curlicue cursive.

“Although Springsteen is known to have an intensive drafting process, few manuscripts of ‘Born to Run’ are available, with the present example being one of only two identified that include the most famous lines in the song,” Sotheby’s said.

The document will be part of a Manhattan sale of fine books and manuscripts.
