Tommy Irwin, the agreement is designed to permit AT&T and the city to “effectively promote the advanced broadband communications capacity of the buildings in the development.” AT&T representative Gun-

Families shop Lighthouse Toy Store BY ZACK STEEN
The spirit of giving this holiday season is alive and well in the Alcorn County area. Donations are beginning to pour in for the 20th Annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund. A $25,000 fund raising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets could be given to local families on Saturday, Dec. 5. Baskets were given away based upon faith the goal will be reached. So far, $3,440 has been raised. Recent donations include $100 from Dick Atkins in honor of Gary and Lisa Caveness; and $50 from Stacie S. Thurner in honor of Ruth Sharp. Contributions to the Christmas Basket Fund can be made “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special person or persons. The tribute will be published daily in the Daily Corinthian. Donations can be brought by the newspaper office 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday or mailed to: Daily Corinthian, Attn.: Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835.

A Christmas blessing. The Lighthouse Foundation’s Toy Store returned on Thursday to greet more than 400 pre-registered Crossroads area families who were given the opportunity to purchase new toys, clothing and supplies at pennies on the dollar. The annual event, funded by community organizations and donors, was staffed by around 200 volunteers. Issuing a “Merry Christmas and God bless you” to each shopper, foundation board member Greg Cooley occupied the front door leading into the toy-filled gym. “It’s amazing what this thing has turned into,” said Cooley. “When we started about 20 years ago, we had the Toy Store in a small classroom. We only had a few thousand dollars worth in donations. Now we have tens of thousands of dollars worth of toys and other items and a wonderful group of committed volunteers.” Cooley added, “this event is a Please see STORE | 2A

Area turning into ‘Winter Wonderland’ Saturday Weekend
will feature three parades
BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
Complete with elaborate decorations, Christmas trees and lots of fluffy snow, the Crossroads Arena will be transformed into a sparkling “Winter Wonderland”, as families and individuals gather in celebration of a time-honored tradition. Held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, guests will be transported to the North Pole as they walk among reindeer barn and other whimsical structures in Santa’s village. A collaborative effort by Magnolia Regional Health Center and the Magnolia Foundation, Winter Wonderland is organized and set up by approximately 70 to 80 hospital employees, children from the community and other tireless volunteers. “The Magnolia Foundation is happy to once again partner with Magnolia Regional Health Center to provide Winter Wonderland to our community,” said Magnolia Foundation Director Tracy Moore. “Our mission is to provide charitable support to MRHC and similar nonprofit organizations in Alcorn County in order to improve the health and well-being of all.” Bringing a dose of Christmas joy to the community since 2006, volunteers spend

Shoppers preregister for several weeks leading up to the Toy Store’s opening day. Each shopper is assigned a time period during the day they can come shop. Staff allows only 12 shoppers inside the gym every 15 minutes. Volunteer shopper assistants like Heather Whitehead wait patiently by the front door for each shopper. “Being able to give back to people who are less fortunate at this very important time of the year is wonderful,” said Whitehead, who herself was a shopper just a few years ago. “I love doing this -it’s a magical experience, for sure.” Each shopper can select four toys per child from the store.

With many activities from which to choose, patrons can participate in holiday arts and crafts in Santa’s workshop or indulge in a variety of decadent treats beverages and other festive snacks from the sweet shop. A silent auction will also take place, allowing the opportunity for those in attendance to bid on 20 Christmas trees, 12 wreaths and other decorations generously donated by local merchants and businesses. “The proceeds from the auction of decorated trees, wreaths and holiday decor is one of the fundraisers which makes our mission come to life,” said Moore. “We truly appreciate the support of the community and want to wish everyone Happy Holidays.” In keeping with the joyous festivities, all can hop aboard the Magnolia Express as it rolls through the town or write and send letters to St. Nicholas at the village post office. Perched on a throne befitting the Father of Christmas, Santa himself will be located upstairs for photos and gift requests.

Today is Friday, Dec. 11, the 345th day of 2015. There are 20 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 11, 1844, the first experimental use of an inhaled anesthetic in dentistry took place as Dr. Horace Wells of Hartford, Connecticut, under the influence of nitrous oxide, had a colleague extract one of his teeth.
On this date: In 1792, France’s King Louis XVI went before the Convention to face charges of treason. (Louis was convicted, and executed the following month.) In 1936, Britain’s King Edward VIII abdicated the throne so he could marry American divorcee Wallis Warfield Simpson; his brother, Prince Albert, became King George VI. In 1941, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States; the U.S. responded in kind. In 1964, Che Guevara addressed the United Nations; in his speech, the Argentine revolutionary declared that “the final hour of colonialism has struck.” In 1972, Apollo 17’s lunar module landed on the moon with astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt aboard; during three extravehicular activities (EVAs), they became the last two men to date to step onto the lunar surface. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter signed legislation creating a $1.6 billion environmental “superfund” to pay for cleaning up chemical spills and toxic waste dumps. “Magnum P.I.,” starring Tom Selleck, premiered on CBS. In 1997, more than 150 countries agreed at a global warming conference in Kyoto, Japan, to control the Earth’s greenhouse gases. In 2008, Bernie Madoff was arrested, accused of running a multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme. (Madoff is serving a 150-year federal prison sentence.)
BOONEVILLE — Halfway Home Animal Shelter at 200 Townhouse Drive in Booneville will celebrate its annual Giving Tree on Saturday, Dec. 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for the public to select a name from the shelter Christmas tree. “We especially want the children in the area to participate,” said Anne Marie Ford. Each child or adult will get to take a tour of the shelter and choose the particular animal they would like to sponsor. “We will then let them write their name and their sponsored kitty or dog name on a Christmas ball to help decorate our tree. If they would like to have their photo made with the dog or cat they have chosen, there will be someone available to take photos.” Santa will also be at the shelter Saturday, Dec. 12 from noon until 2 p.m. to have photos made with him. Supplies for the doggie or kitty angels may be dropped off for the chosen animal at the donor’s convenience. (For more information call 662-720-1033.)
Walnut sets annual Christmas parade WALNUT — The Town of Walnut will hold their annual Christmas parade at 7 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 14. Santa is scheduled to appear in the parade so no other floats are allowed to include Santa. Churches, civic organizations, businesses, industries, schools and individuals are invited to participate. Line-up will begin at 5 p.m. and judging will be held at 6 p.m. (For further information, call the Walnut Town Hall at 662-2234405)

Scott Field at MSU wins award for turf
and universities with natural playing surfaces. A panel of 15 judges independently scored entries based on playability, surface appearance, utilization of innovative solutions, effective use of budget and implementation of a comprehensive agronomic program. For winning, MSU’s Sports Turf Facilities Management team will be honored at the STMA annual awards banquet Jan. 22 in San Diego, California, and Scott Field will be featured in SportsTurf Magazine. “It is an honor to be recognized nationally by this organization, and it is a credit to those who work diligently to keep Scott Field in such impeccable quality,” said Vice President for Campus Services Amy Tuck. “Their work and attention to detail means so much to the entire university family and everyone who enjoys seeing the Bulldogs play.” Scott Field, which also won the award in 2003, is one of two university fields to earn the honor twice, along with the field at Iowa State. Since 1992, STMA’s Field of the Year award has honored members who manage a variety of sporting grounds at the professional, collegiate, schools (K-12), and parks and recreation levels. “Each year, we look forward to hand-picking the best natural grass athletic surfaces in the country through the Field of the Year award,” Kim Heck, CEO of STMA, said on the organization’s website.
STARKVILLE — Mississippi State’s achievements on the football field have once again risen to a top national ranking – with the latest honor recognizing the grounds crew that has bolstered the quality of Scott Field at Davis Wade Stadium to perennial national prominence. The Sports Turf Managers Association is recognizing Scott Field as the Football Field of the Year for colleges
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — An auction of Elvis Presley memorabilia will be part of a celebration for what would have been the late rock ‘n’ roll icon’s 81st birthday. Elvis Presley Enterprises says fans are expected to gather at Graceland, Presley’s Memphis home, for a cake-cutting ceremony Jan. 8. Guest speakers will include Glenn Derringer who, as an
City museum plans Christmas toy drive TUPELO — The Oren Dunn Museum City Museum is currently holding their annual Toys for Tots Tot Drive . The public is asked to purchase new, unwrapped toys. All toys donated at the museum will remain in the community. The deadline to drop off toys is Wednesday, Dec. 16. (For more information call 662-841-6438.)
Magevney House temporarily closed MEMPHIS — The Magevney House, located at 198 Adams Avenue in Memphis is temporarily closed to visitors. The oldest home in the city, and a property which remains intact from the earliest days of Memphis, the Magevney house was constructed circa 1837 and was the home of the Magevney family until it was given to the City in 1941 for use as a free museum. Eugene Magevney was an immigrant from Ireland who was a teacher, politician, land owner, and philanthropist. The house is considered the “cradle of Catholicism” in Memphis as it hosted the first Catholic mass, wedding, and christening. Magevney was instrumental in establishing St. Peter’s Catholic Church next door.

asked to bring at least two cans of non-perishable food items. “We have about 900 cans right now,” said Fortenberry. The cans of food are used to make food baskets for needy families in the community. “It’s something we like to do to give back to the community,” said the mayor of the 45 baskets delivered to families. “It has been amazing to see what people do every year to help … every penny is spent for those food baskets.” Farmington’s parade will begin on County Road 200 at the Farmington Water Association and travel down the county road before turning on County Road 218. “We will start blocking off County Road 200 to 213 at 5 p.m.,” said Fortenberry. “I ask people to tolerate the inconvenience once a year for the parade.” Santa Claus will return to Farmington City Hall on Saturday. He will be available to have his photo taken with children beginning at 3 p.m. “Those wanting to have Santa photos taken must bring their own cameras,” added Fortenberry. ■ The parade fun gets geared back up on Saturday at Kossuth with Kossuth High School graduate Brigadier General John Rhodes serving as parade grand marshal. Rhodes has been with the Mississippi National Guard for over 25 years and is commander of the 66th Troop Command. The Kossuth parade route is set to begin at the arch near the L.C. Follin Christian Life Center and go around Kossuth Elementary School on Country Road 604. Entries will turn left past Kossuth Middle School onto County Road 669 and follow the road before turning left onto County Road 618. The parade will disband prior to Highway 2. ■ Rienzi’s annual parade will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday. Trevor and Kellie Williams along with David and Joy Massey all will serve as grand marshals. Jim and Doris Strickland will be honored guests.
New UM brochure features renderings OXFORD — For the first time, architectural renderings of the highlyanticipated $50 million renovation and expansion of the University of Mississippi’s Student Union are available to the public.

Corinth, Miss.
The ignorant crusade Self-righteousness is liberating. The same people who are most exercised about guns in America, and want to ban and even confiscate entire categories of firearms, know little about them and evidently feel no compunction to learn. The worst terror attack in the United States since Sept. 11 has become the occasion for another frenzied, poorly informed push for new gun reRich strictions. President Barack Obama Lowry gave a prime-time address National on the terror threat, in which Review he resolutely reaffirmed the status quo in the campaign against ISIS. Except that he hopes that gun control, one of the signal political and policy failures of our time, will now be deployed to help foil the apocalyptic terror group. Almost every time there is a mass shooting, there is a rush to push old gun-control chestnuts, regardless of their applicability. The San Bernardino terror couple didn’t buy their guns at a gun show (making the effort to close the so-called gun-show loophole irrelevant); they weren’t on the terrorism watch list (so the proposal to ban people on the list from buying guns wouldn’t have stopped them); and Syed Farook passed a background check when he bought two handguns (rendering calls for universal background checks moot). The president and The New York Times, which saw fit to publish a front-page editorial for the first time since it thundered against Warren Harding in 1920, have fastened on the two “assault weapons,” AR-15s, used in the attack. The Times called them “weapons of war, barely modified.” President Obama referred to them as “powerful assault weapons.” On this question, the left has fallen for its own propaganda. Decades ago, gun-controllers decided to play on the confusion between semi-automatic versus automatic weapons to push for a ban on nasty-looking assault weapons, even though they are, for the most part, functionally indistinguishable from other semi-automatic rifles. The AR-15 is one of those semi- automatic guns. It isn’t exotic or particularly powerful. It is the most popular rifle in the country. At least 3.5 million are in circulation. It is lightweight, accurate and doesn’t have much of a kick. You wouldn’t use it in combat and, in fact, wouldn’t necessarily use it to hunt. A .223 caliber gun, it is less powerful than many handguns. Some states forbid .223 caliber rifles in deer hunting because they aren’t powerful enough to reliably take down the game. If gun-controllers know any of this, they hide it well. Nor do they seem to care that a prior version of the assault-weapons ban, in effect in the 10 years after 1994, was wholly ineffectual. A Department of Justice-backed study concluded, “Should it be renewed, the ban’s effects on gun violence are likely to be small at best and perhaps too small for reliable measurement.” (Rifles of all types, let alone assault rifles, are used in gun homicides only rarely.) The proposal to keep people on the terrorist watch list from buying guns sounds sensible, yet it is problematic in that it denies people an explicit constitutional right on the basis of little or no due process. Last year, the Times itself inveighed against “the shadowy, self-contradictory world of American terror watch lists.” If the watch list is to become a no-gun list, it has to be cleaned up, and listees should have an opportunity to challenge their status upon attempting to buy a gun. Such a prohibition would affect a tiny slice of gun purchases and would likely be mere symbolism, like the assault- weapons ban. The overriding reality that gun-controllers ignore is that almost all gun homicides are committed with handguns in routine street crime, and are often obtained in informal networks operating outside the gun rules we already have. But please don’t confuse the anti-gun campaigners with facts. Their ignorance is invincible, and necessary to their crusade. (Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.)
Prayer for today My Father, may I never be content to pass by thy beautiful offerings and keep on in wretched despair. Save me if I may ‘be inclining toward misery. Give me the spirit of repose, and help me to confide in thee as I daily seek the strength of thy love. Amen.
A verse to share “One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.” — Psalms 27:4
They all have an answer for terror All a politician really has are words. They are his only weapon, his only sword, his only shield. Even should he rise to the presidency and thus be able to command actual troops, he finds himself still needing words to justify to the nation why he is putting American lives at risk. And if our nation itself is attacked, the words our president speaks are the words the nation turns to for comfort and solace – and for the assurance that punishment will be meted out and vengeance unleashed against the evildoers. Franklin Roosevelt called Dec. 7, 1941 – the day of the Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor – “a date which will live in infamy.” Those words still live in history. Less recollected but equally important were the words that followed. “Always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us,” Roosevelt said. “I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.” When Harry Truman authorized dropping two atomic bombs on Japan in 1945, some American church leaders were hor-
rified and asked him to show mercy in the future. T r u man was unmoved. Roger “When you Simon have to deal with a beast, Columnist you have to treat him as a beast,” Truman said. He had never forgotten Roosevelt’s words after that day of “infamy,” and Truman wanted the Japanese and the rest of the world to know it. Words matter. Words uttered today shape the actions we take in the future. American and European citizens go to the Middle East, get “radicalized” and return as killers and sometimes as suicide bombers. What words could persuade them to do that? And what words, what cause, could make a young mother put her 6-monthold baby in the hands of the child’s grandmother and then put on black tactical gear, pick up an assault rifle and, with her husband, massacre 14 people in San Bernardino, California? What words can a president then use to address the nation about this slaughter? What can he say? “Our success won’t de-
pend on tough talk or abandoning our values or giving in to fear,” President Barack Obama said Sunday night from behind a lectern in the Oval Office. “That’s what groups like ISIL are hoping for. Instead, we will prevail by being strong and smart, resilient and relentless, and by drawing upon every aspect of American power.” Those words cannot calm every fear or provide easy answers. But they resonate: “strong and smart, resilient and relentless.” The Republican opposition had its own answers. When President Obama said that people on the nofly list should be unable to buy firearms, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz reacted by saying that the president should not be “attempting to take away the constitutional liberties of millions of innocent Americans.” John Kasich wants boots on the ground. “Without taking the fight to ISIS on the ground, ISIS won’t be defeated,” he said. “We must stop delaying and do it.” Marco Rubio said terrorism is part of God’s plan: “What we may interpret as bad, and most certainly is in the case of Paris or 9/11, even that is part of a broader plan for the universe and
for our lives that we’re just not going to know the answer to. God’s ways are not our ways.” Donald Trump livetweeted during the speech with deep thoughts such as “Wish Obama would say ISIS, like almost everyone else, rather than ISIL,” and “We need a new President FAST!” Rand Paul said: “We should be advocating for more concealed carry ability for law-abiding Americans.” (One killer in San Bernardino had been a lawabiding American – until he started shredding people with an easily obtained assault weapon.) Ben Carson called the killings a “hate crime.” Asked to explain, Carson said: “Well, it’s hard to imagine that you would shoot a bunch of people if you didn’t hate them, right? You don’t do that to people you love.” But Cruz, who passes for an intellectual in the Republican field, used his words thoughtfully. “If I am elected president,” he tweeted, “I will direct the Department of of Defense to destroy ISIS.” (Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico. com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)
Republicans have unprecedented power OXFORD — As Election Day approached, Republicans in Mississippi had a collective theme: Look at what we’ve done for Mississippi, and we’ve only just begun. A majority of voters agreed, fueling a transition that is, well, historic. Consider that former Gov. Kirk Fordice, when he took office in 1992, broke a string of Democratic governors dating to 1870. More impressively, consider that Democrats held a majority in the Mississippi Legislature for 130 years until just four years ago when Republicans edged them out. In January, when November’s gains are realized, the Grand Old Party will have, or nearly have, veto-proof strength in the Capitol — not that they would ever have cause to override the party’s head guy, Gov. Phil Bryant, who broke his own record margin of victory in winning a second term. Of course, it needs to be pointed out that Republicans today don’t share the ideology of their forebears in the latter 1800s. Ames was a carpetbagger, a Union Army general elected during Reconstruction when the Party of Lincoln prevailed. Today’s Republicans are conservatives who spend a lot of time trying to out-con-

servative one another. And their ranks have grown due in part to the message sown by Charlie many, includMitchell ing state party chairman Columnist Joe Nosef, who insists there’s no longer any room for conservatives in the Democratic Party. When Republicans got power, they dominated the drawing of legislative district lines to amass more. A couple of thoughts related to the surge: ■ Will Mississippi follow the model of states where Republican wins were followed by aggressive welfare reforms? In Maine, the number of able-bodied adults without minor dependents receiving food aid was whacked 80 percent under a “get a job” initiative. Minnesota tightened up in other ways. So has Kansas. ■ If Mississippi does follow such a strategy, will there be jobs? Unemployment statistics are often misunderstood. The numbers are based both on job-seekers (which doesn’t include everyone) and people working in available jobs. For instance, in October
2,900 job-seekers found employment, but 300 lost their jobs. Joblessness is spotty in Mississippi. Six of the 82 counties have employment levels well ahead of the national averages, but a much larger number, mostly in the Delta, have much higher rates than the state as a whole. Employment was a main tenet of Bryant’s first term, and a theme in his re-election campaign. But the fact is that the state’s jobless rate has consistently been higher than the national average. ■ Money. Republicans campaigning for office were especially proud of their “fiscal stewardship,” but the fact is that Mississippi has always balanced its books — even during the decades when those nasty, reckless Democrats held the purse strings. It is a blessing to all Mississippians of any party that the per-capita public debt shared by citizens here is $5,600, half that of Californians and about a third of what each Massachusetts resident owes. One threat to the Republican Party is more internecine battles between those who consider themselves conservatives and those who consider the conserva-

tives not nearly conservative enough. This, plus the temptation to give government money to their big business pals and to punish people for being poor — instead of helping them escape poverty — are their major negatives. Their positive, as the election results attest, is that the voting public is tired of what they see as an array of government inefficiency and waste and policies that prop up government at the expense of the private sector. The adage, “With great power comes great responsibility,” is attributed both to Voltaire and to Spiderman, but regardless of who said it first, it certainly applies to members of the Mississippi Republican Party. The remaining Democrats in the House and the Senate have been pushed to the margins. They have a seat at the table, but that’s all they have. The big question is whether Republicans — with unprecedented clout — will be innovators who will call on their better angels to help the state and all its people or whether voters four years, eight years, or 12 years will come to believe all they have is talk.

McCarthy-era movie resembles present-day politics into swing, Kirk Douglas revealed that Trumbo was the writer for one of his famous starring roles, ‘Spartacus,” a move that is often cited as the end of the Hollywood blacklisting. Finally, in 2011, 35 years after his death, Trumbo was posthumously given full credit for having written the classic ‘Roman Holiday,’ starring Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn. After watching the movie, I thought of the strife that stake-burners such as McCarthy caused. His tactics split up friendships, halted careers, facilitated the imprisonment of generally law-abiding citizens, and likely split up families—as the constant toil to make a living while blacklisted nearly caused the dissolution of Trumbo’s marriage. In the present day we should be careful legitimizing a candidate who employs similar tactics. It’s a bit unsettling that the Republican National Committee still welcomed Donald Trump as a “high-caliber candidate,” as they stated, right after he had just labeled Mexican immigrants “rapists” in the speech
tion. As a result of his refusal to speak, Trumbo was convicted of contempt of court and sentenced to serve time in federal prison in Ashland, Kentucky. He served 11 years. Some Hollywood well-to-dos, including Edgar G. Robinson and Elia Kazan, ended up being pressured to speak out against the blacklisted screenwriters. Trumbo later said in 1970 that there was fault on all sides: “There was bad faith and good, honesty and dishonesty, courage and cowardice, selflessness and opportunism, wisdom and stupidity, good and bad on both sides; and almost every individual involved, no matter where he stood, combined some or all of these antithetical qualities in his own person, in his own acts.” Trumbo ultimately moved his family from the ranch in California to Mexico City after being unable to secure work. He wrote low-budget screenplays for meager pay, many of which were released under pseudonyms, including the pen name Robert Rich. As the 1960s got

It wasn’t enough, however, for Trump to demonize Mexican immigrants; this week he felt compelled to advocate the exclusion of all Muslim immigrants from America. I wondered if the next two words out of his mouth might possibly be “concentration camps,” hearkening back to the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. When I listen to Trump speak, it sort of makes me wish we had a House Un-American Activities Committee — but one that worked in an opposite mode to that of the 1950s. Is it unAmerican to label all Mexicans as rapists and to push for the exclusion of a group of people based on religion and ethnicity? Yes, it certainly is.

History buffs converge on Leakesville for commemoration LEAKESVILLE — While it doesn’t carry the name recognition of Vicksburg, Corinth or Brice’s Cross Roads, the Battle of McLeod’s Mill outside Leakesville a century and a half ago was the most significant engagements of the Union’s last major advancements in the Deep South aimed at bringing the Civil War to a close. Recently, more light has begun to be shed on the different facets of General Davidson’s West Pascagoula Raid and the battle that claimed the life of a member of America’s famous Westinghouse family. History buffs and Civil War reenactors will gather in Greene County to team up for a commemoration and re-enactment the Battle of McLeod’s Mill today through Sunday. The 3-day event will take place in Leakesville along the banks of the Chickasawhay River, not far from the site of the original encounter.

ball and main battle reenactment already in the works. “The Battle of McLeod’s Mill has for a long time remained under the radar of most historians and Civil War enthusiasts,” Russell Turner, Editor of the Greene County Herald in Leakesville said. “But, it turns out that it was a much bigger deal than even those of us who live here understood.” Re-enactors are expected to begin arriving on Thursday, but scheduled festivities will get underway on Friday, Dec. 11. Living history demonstrations will be ongoing in Leakesville’s Green Park for area school children and the general public from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. The Greene County Historical Society will host an Open House at the Greene County Museum from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. The annual Leakesville Christmas Parade is set for 6 p.m. and is once again centered around the theme of an old time Christmas.

Davidson’s movements were causing a panic in Confederate held Mobile and were devastating the country generally, while demonstrating the Union could operate deep in Confederate territory sapping Confederate resources and morale. The raid was very much a brother against brother affair, given the number of Unionist Southern Regiments involved. LT Albert Westinghouse, the elder brother of industrialist and inventor George Westinghouse, was killed while leading a cavalry charge at McLeod’s Mill. The first observance of the historic engagement, held in 2014 on the 150th anniversary of the battle, drew large crowds to this south Mississippi community and drew rave reviews from reenactors and other visitors. Organizers are hoping for an even bigger turnout this year as plans include the addition of a period church service and a second skirmish reenactment to go along with the living history demonstrations, period
event will also be able to see living history displays, enjoy period music and dancing, enjoy an old-time Christmas parade and many other activities. A special invitation is sent to all Crossroads and Corinth area Civil War buffs to attend. “It is going to be a grand time with a lot of different activities,” said Town of Leakesville spokesperson Rex Garretson. ““We had a great inaugural event last year and are expecting quite a strong turnout again this year.” Davidson’s Raid was part of ongoing Department of the Gulf operations designed to aid and complement Sherman’s March to the Sea and General George Thomas’ defense of Nashville. Virginian-born Brigadier General John Wynn Davidson was tasked by Major General E.R.S. Canby to raid deep into Mississippi to cut the M&O Railroad, threaten Mobile, and divert Confederate resources from Nashville. Although unsuccessful in severing the rail line, General Canby reported

Armed man caught at A-State campus JONESBORO, Ark. — An armed man drove onto Arkansas State University on Thursday, sparking a campus lockdown before police took him into custody without any shots fired, a university spokesman said. University spokesman Bill Smith said the man was taken into custody about an hour after the incident began. The university lifted a lockdown for all parts of campus except for the east side of the student union. Jonesboro Police spokesman Paul Holmes said bomb squad technicians were going to examine the truck the suspect had driven into the middle of campus. The school sent an alert early Thursday afternoon urging the evacuation of the student union following a report of an active shooter. A later tweet said there were no shots fired or any reports of injuries. Holmes said a negotiator was sent to the scene to speak with the man. It wasn’t clear what, if any, discussions took place. John Miller, a junior at Arkansas State, told the Arkansas Democrat Gazette in a phone interview that he was taking a test in the humanities building when he saw through a window a green pickup drive onto the lawn in front of the union. About five minute later, after finishing his test, Miller said “people came running and screaming freaking out.” At that point, Miller ran with several women to the library as police and SWAT team officers began descending on the campus, he said. The university is l in Jonesboro, about 130 miles northeast of Little Rock. Its enrollment is more than 13,000, but not all students were on campus Thursday because it was the second day of final exams. Arkansas State said tests that were scheduled for Thursday night will be administered next week. Jonesboro is also home to Westside Middle School, where an 11-year-old and 13-yearold fatally shot four students and a teacher in 1998.
Health cooperative reports huge losses The lone health insurance cooperative to make money last year on the Affordable Care Act’s public insurance exchanges is now losing millions and cutting off individual enrollment for 2016. Maine’s Community Health Options lost more than $17 million in the first nine months of this year, after making $10.9 million in the same period last year. A spokesman said higherthan-expected medical costs have hurt the cooperative. The announcement casts further doubt on the future of insurance cooperatives, small

nonprofit insurers that were created during the ACA’s creation to inject competition in insurance markets. These co-ops immediately struggled to build their businesses. A dozen of the 23 created have already folded. An Associated Press review of financial statements from 10 of the 11 surviving coops shows that they lost, on average, more than $21 million in the first nine months of the year. Those losses range from $3.9 million reported by Maryland’s Evergreen Health Cooperative to $50.7 million booked by Land of Lincoln Mutual Health Insurance Company in Illinois. “Clearly the remaining health care co-ops are in dire circumstances,” said Robert Laszewski, a health care consultant and former insurance executive who has been a frequent critic of the Affordable Care Act. “I don’t know how any of them can survive another year.” The cooperatives, like other health insurers, have been hit by soaring medical and prescription drug costs. Plus they’ve had to spend money building a network of care providers, negotiating rates with them and then marketing their plans to customers. “It is probably impossible for a startup in the health insurance space to make any significant money in the first couple years,” said Standard & Poor’s analyst Deep Banerjee. Established players also have struggled to sell coverage on the ACA’s state-based health insurance exchanges, which are a key element behind the law’s push to cover millions of uninsured people. UnitedHealth Group Inc. recently reported deep losses from its exchange business and said it would decide next year whether to even remain in the ex-

Hospital sued over lack of interpreter JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. — A deaf couple says a Tennessee hospital discriminated against them by failing to provide a qualified sign language interpreter while their 21-year-old daughter was dying of cancer. Chris and Donna Cantrell’s federal lawsuit against Mountain States Health Alliance in Johnson City was filed Wednesday by Disability Rights Tennessee and the National Association of the Deaf. The organizations say the Johnson City Medical Center refused to provide qualified sign language interpreters to allow the couple from Wise, Virginia, to participate in their daughter’s care during the six months before Sydnei Cantrell died on May 19. “(The couple) watched their daughter suffer from serious health conditions ... without ever receiving a full explanation of what was happening to their daughter,” the lawsuit said. “(Donna) Cantrell saw her daughter burst into tears but had no idea why she was crying. Because her daughter was too upset to explain, (she) did not learn that her daughter was dying until much later.” The hospital provided a person to facilitate communications on fewer than five occasions, but the person was not qualified to act as an interpreter and didn’t sign clearly enough, the lawsuit said. The lawsuit asks a judge to order Mountain States to develop a nondiscrimination policy requiring the provision of qualified sign language interpreters, and to train medical staff on compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The lawsuit also asks for unspecified compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees.

2 students charged for threat, weapons VICKSBURG — A Vicksburg teenager faces charges after a homemade explosive was found at Warren Central Junior High’s library and detonated in a nearby field. Vicksburg Police Capt. Sandra Williams, in a news release, said the student will face charges of possession of an explosive device and having weapons — knives — on school property. The Vicksburg Post reports a second student was booked with having a knife on school property but Williams said authorities don’t believe that student was involved with making or transporting the device to the school. Both students are being held at the Warren County Detention Center pending a hearing in youth court. Their names and ages were withheld. Police Chief Robert Stewart says a student from another school provided the initial tip about the device.
month for most employees. The amount of money the county contributes will go from $496.50 to $680.69 per employee per month. Premiums will increase by about $200 per month for the county’s retired employees and those who have family coverage. The county won’t cover any of those policies’ increased costs. Billingsley says the rise in insurance premiums is due to a number of large claims in 2015. Billingsley sys 300 employees are currently on the county’s insurance plan, with 10 more retirees still on the plan.
Deer Island to build new pier for visitors BILOXI — A new pier on Deer Island is expected to be open within the next two months as part of an effort to open the island to coastal residents and visitors, officials said. According to news media outlets, Missis-
sippi Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann said Wednesday that creating an easier way to access to the island will provide an economic boost for the area. “Our goal that has been from the very first, to get people that come here to spend one more day here,” Hosemann said. “Just one more day. It’s a huge economic benefit.” The 170-foot pier cost about $360,000, which was paid for through Tidelands Funds, and construction began in the summer. The pier will allow boaters to dock on the island and could facilitate a ferry as well. Whether or not the pier will be the only infrastructure development on Deer Island is up in the air.

Slowing sales?
Prices improving?
The U.S. government reports November’s retail sales figures today, and analysts expect another month of slow growth. Spending by consumers has kept the U.S. economy afloat while the global economy remains weak and the strong dollar makes American goods expensive abroad. Consumers keep spending, but low gas prices and inflation are limiting that growth. Analysts expect sales to inch up 0.3 percent, which is an improvement over the last few months.
The government will release its monthly report on prices charged by farmers, manufacturers and other producers today. The Producer Price Index measures the price of goods before they reach consumers. Analysts expect that prices held steady in November, which is actually an improvement over the last couple of months. Prices have dropped sharply over the last year, and retailers have had trouble raising prices because wage growth has been weak.

Analysts think Americans will feel a bit better about their incomes and finances. The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index is expected to come in at around 92, about where it’s been for the last six months but a slight improvement from October and November. Americans have been feeling a bit better about the economy because hiring is steady and salaries and wages are slowly improving.

Reader advocates for assisted suicide WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT

PICKLES
Dear Annie: Every so often, you print a letter from someone who is concerned that a loved one has expressed a desire to commit suicide. Depending on the circumstances, what’s so terrible about that? When you have lived a full life and are in failing health, ending your life certainly seems to be a reasonable consideration for many. You know you are not going to get better, so why not end your life in the most humane way you can design for yourself? Dying is the last thing we do, so we may as well make it easy on ourselves. I’m 81 years old, have been married for 50 years, have two dozen grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, am in fair health and live comfortably. Should those circumstances change for the worse, I know how to end my life successfully. — But Not Just Yet Dear Not Just Yet: There are already laws in place in three states that permit the terminally ill to hasten their deaths. If one is not expected to live much longer, and what’s left is mostly painful, we agree that the person should have some control over his or her death. But too many people decide on sui-
Annie’s Mailbox cide because they are depressed. They aren’t in poor physical health. They aren’t terminally ill. They are in psychological pain and don’t believe life will ever improve. Laws must distinguish between those who might be helped through counseling or medication, and those whose doctors concur that, medically, there is no future beyond a few months. Anyone who would like additional information can contact Death With Dignity (deathwithdignity.org). Dear Annie: I am writing in response to “Anonymous,” who is undergoing chemotherapy and thinks people who want to visit are expecting too much of her to put on makeup, clean her house and shop for refreshments. Recently, both my husband and I were diagnosed with different forms of cancer. Family and friends visited, brought meals, phoned, emailed, texted and more. Typically, I would do all of the things Anonymous listed
to welcome guests into our home, but it was too much. I determined that I preferred to welcome family and friends rather than push them away. So I might be in nightclothes with no makeup, with my bald head exposed in all its glory. I offered bottled water if I had it. Having the support and love of family and friends lifted us above and through the difficulties of our treatments and surgeries. My husband is in remission now, and I begin 33 rounds of radiation next week. My advice to those in our circumstances is to consider the benefits of allowing caring people into your world when coping with serious health issues. Feeling the love, and letting others lift your spirits when you may not have the energy to do so yourself is extremely valuable to recovery. — The More the Merrier Dear More: No one expects a seriously ill person to look great, have a spotless home and bring refreshments as if you are hosting a lighthearted get-together. You are wise to see that friends and family simply want to spend time with you and offer support. We wish you and your husband complete recoveries.

Giving in to vengeance divides woman’s family D E A R ABBY: I made a big mistake three years ago. When I found out my husband Abigail was cheaton me, Van Buren ing I became vengeful and Dear Abby sought revenge. I ended up sleeping with my sisterin-law’s boyfriend to get back at my husband and at her for some things she did in the past. It took my pain away — for a bit. Abby, I am not this kind of person. I’m not an evil, conniving tramp. I regret what I did every day, and I feel like garbage. My sister-in-law and I haven’t spoken since I decided to tell her the truth. My husband and I (miraculously) were able to work through our problems, and our relationship is stronger than ever. My sister-in-law and her boyfriend have remained together, and I don’t speak to him anymore either. What can I do to earn forgiveness? Is this even forgivable? How can I mend this family I helped tear apart? — ONLY HUMAN IN HOUSTON DEAR ONLY HUMAN: You might start by apologizing to
your sister-in-law for the pain you caused her. But after that, the decision about whether she can forgive you or wants anything more to do with you will be up to her. DEAR ABBY: My granddaughter, “Becca,” just turned 6. One of her favorite things to do is role-play, which includes the prince (me) kissing her, sometimes at the end of a wedding ceremony. Becca also likes to sit on my lap. My wife thinks I shouldn’t allow her to sit there and that the interaction isn’t appropriate. She says I may be mistaken for some kind of predator. It hurts me and Becca when I tell her we must find some other playtime scenario. I think it’s harmless. Who’s right here? My wife or me? Is there an age a granddaughter reaches when this kind of interaction becomes taboo? What about giving her a goodbye kiss when she departs? — BAFFLED GRANDPA IN EL PASO DEAR BAFFLED: Do Becca’s parents agree with your wife? I would be more concerned with whether they consider your playing Prince Charming to be inappropriate. At 6, I see no harm in it. When Becca is 8 or 9, your wife may have a point. Of course, by then she may
prefer to be Supergirl rather than a princess, and have other objectives than being a bride. As to kissing your granddaughter hello or goodbye, that’s perfectly appropriate regardless of her age. And when you do, I seriously doubt anyone will mistake you for a predator. DEAR ABBY: I married the woman of my dreams two months ago. I asked my father to be my best man and he accepted, but he didn’t fulfill his duties. There was no bachelor party, no best man speech, and he and my mother left the reception after only an hour. I was hurt and disappointed. I have avoided talking to him since. Should I tell him how much he hurt me, or just try to forgive and forget? — LET-DOWN GROOM IN MACON, GA. DEAR GROOM: I vote for doing both, if you can. When your father accepted the invitation, he may not have understood that being your best man would involve more than standing beside you at the altar. Why he and your mother would leave the reception early is puzzling, but it may have meant that for some reason they felt uncomfortable there. You need to explore that.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). In Hamlet, Shakespeare suggested that nothing is either good or bad, “but thinking makes it so.” You’ll frame today’s events as neutral or positive and this will considerably reduce your stress level. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Remember when you felt trapped? You freed yourself only to wind up in a similarly restrictive situation. This time, seek reform from within. When you feel inwardly free you’ll stop getting into restricting situations. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The past and present do not equal your life. Your dreams for the future are a large part of your personality these days. Share your vision and you’ll learn who is really on your side. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve a very real concern for injustice and stand up for those who are not being treated fairly. Just make sure you have the whole and true story before you begin your defense. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
berate yourself too much for errors that come with the territory of being human. You’re doing your very best. Mistakes are normal. Let it go at that. Besides, perfection is boring. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It may seem appealing to recreate the passion you once had because you already know the territory. Be honest, though: Has this cycle run its course? Are you just resisting the end because you’re afraid of the unknown? LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). While you’re known for indecision, there are some decisions you make practically automatically. You know the answer with every fiber of your being. “He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind.” -- Leonardo da Vinci SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re once again getting that feeling of being cosmically connected, like your parents are the Earth and the sky, your cousins are the animals and your journey is as effortless as an orbit.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Get on your own side. You owe it to the rest of the world to be confident and content in whom you are. The one who is friends with his or her own mind will have many friends indeed. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s like you’re pressing on the walls and bookshelves searching for the hidden door to the secret chamber where the mystery will finally be solved. You will find no hidden door because the hidden door is you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll test and re-test theories. You’ll poke to see where the possible holes in the story are. You want to believe, though you won’t be able to until you’ve put the idea through your judgmental paces. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Knowing what you want to do for money and doing it well -- it’s not something to be taken lightly. Many aren’t lucky enough to fall into such a fantastic work groove as the one you’ll hit today.

McNairy Co. represented in grid game BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
McNairy County will have five players to participate in the West Tennessee Football All-Star Game. There will be four Adamsville players in the game and one player from McNairy Central. The fourth annual West Tennessee High School Football All-Star game will be played Friday at Liberty High School. The AHS players are Blake and Dylan Sweat, LaDerrick Means, and Austin Cotner. McNairy Central’s Taye Crump will also participate in the game. An oddity in the game is that brothers Blake and Dylan were drafted on opposing teams. Blake will be on the South team and Dylan will be playing for the North. Crump and Means are on the South team with Blake. Cotner will join Dylan on the North squad.

BHS offers state tourney-like fare BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Biggersville’s Cliff Little is offering up his own holiday menu. BHS will host the 3rd BIGG Christmas Classic on Saturday, with the nine-game slate beginning bright and early at 8:30 a.m. “We wanted to give the local fans something to see that involves local teams,” said Little. “There are some good matchups and hopefully some good games.” Nine months removed from -- and three months prior -- to the annual Mississippi High School Activities Associations State Basketball Tournament,
Little has filled the menu with visitor’s to the Capitol City. Class 3A runner-up Aberdeen, Final Four participants Corinth and Gentry in 4A and Ashland in 1A, as well as 2015 qualifiers Baldwyn (2A) and Horn Lake (6A) comprise the boys’ 16-team field. Holly Springs, which made the 3A event last season, was supposed to face off with tournament regular Booneville, but the Hawks pulled out earlier this week. “It’s like a Jackson in December event,” said Little, a two-time state champion coach. “Hopefully it will be a good day of basketball.” Play begins at 8:30 a.m.
with Ripley and Alcorn Central, the third boys’ and fourth overall county participant in the event. The day will conclude with Baldwyn and Class 6A Tupelo, set for an 8:30 p.m. tip. “There’s already been a lot of talk about that game,” said Little. Game 4 will be an all-Prentiss County affair. Booneville will face off with Thrasher, who Little got as a last-second replacement for Holly Springs. Little’s Lions will face off with Ashland in the 4 p.m. contest. “They’re playing really well and have a lot back from last
season,” said Little. “They’ve already beaten Holly Springs and Oxford.” The Lady Lions will face off with Gentry in the lone girls’ contest of the day. Both the Rams and Lady Rams are making the trek from Indianola. Corinth and Gentry will face off in the 7 p.m. contest. The two have only met one other time -- a 77-68 Corinth win in the opening round of the 2012 North Half Tournament. Both lost in the Class 4A semifinals last season, Corinth (25-8) to eventual champion McComb and Gentry (27-7) to Quitman.

Swinney says Clemson belongs with elite Associated Press
ATLANTA — Each of the four College Football Playoff coaches was asked to talk about his team’s ability to recover from a loss. Only three had an answer. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney grinned as he was skipped on that question in Thursday’s news conference. Top-ranked Clemson (13-0) stands alone as the only un-
defeated team in the playoff. The Tigers will face Oklahoma in the Dec. 31 Orange Bowl playoff semifinal. Later that night, Alabama and Michigan State meet in the Cotton Bowl. Clemson hasn’t won a national championship since 1981, but now the Tigers have their chance to end the drought. Swinney was prepared
when asked if the Tigers are ready for the big stage. “They’re 13-0,” Swinney said. “We played on a big stage all year.” “It’s been a fun group. They’ve responded to every challenge. If we get beat it won’t be because they got overwhelmed by the big stage,” he said. The coaches took a break from their recruiting sched-
ules for a news conference at the College Football Hall of Fame before Thursday night’s awards show. Oklahoma (11-1) has won seven straight since a 24-17 loss to Texas. Michigan State (12-1) won four straight following a loss to Nebraska. Alabama (12-1) lost to Mississippi in its third game of the Please see CLEMSON | 12A
Henry wins Maxwell, Doak Walker awards Associated Press
ATLANTA — Alabama running back Derrick Henry was the biggest star of college football’s awards night, as he won the Maxwell Award, given to the college player of the year, and the Doak Walker Award given to the nation’s top running back. The awards were presented for the first time at the Col-
lege Football Hall of Fame on Thursday. Also Thursday, Henry was chosen as the Walter Camp National Player of the Year. Henry joined Trent Richardson, who won in 2011, as the only Alabama players to win the Doak Walker Award. Some other recent winners include Darren McFadden, Montee Ball and 2014 winner
Melvin Gordon. “This list is legendary,” Henry said. “I’m just thankful to be a part of it.” Henry, Stanford’s Christian McCaffrey and Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson were the finalists for the Maxwell Award and also are the finalists for the Heisman Trophy, to be presented on Saturday.
Watson won the Davey O’Brien Award given to the nation’s top quarterback. Other award winners Thursday were: Stanford’s Joshua Garnett (Outland Trophy, given to the top interior lineman); Temple’s Tyler Matakevich (Chuck Bednarik Award, given to the nation’s Please see AWARDS | 12A
Meetings end with hitters still on the market Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Baseball executives headed home Thursday with top free-agent sluggers still on the market and trade talk percolating that could lead to more swaps in coming weeks. Outfielder Jason Heyward and first baseman Chris Davis figure to strike the largest deals among hitters. The top
pitchers already have signed, with David Price getting a $217 million, seven-year contract with Boston and Zack Greinke a $206.5 million, sixyear deal with Arizona. “I think the market is waiting to see what happens with Jason Heyward,” said Arizona general manager Dave Stewart, who finalized Greinke’s deal and acquired Shelby
Miller during the meetings. Dan Duquette, the Baltimore Orioles’ executive vice president for baseball operations, thinks it is clear why pitchers were pursued first. “There’s more teams chasing fewer players in that market. Supply and demand,” he said. Teams announced 10 trades and 11 free agent sign-
ings at the meetings, and several more free agents reached agreements that have not yet been announced. In moves Thursday as people left, reliever Jonathan Broxton stayed with the St. Louis Cardinals, agreeing to a $7.5 million, two-year contract, and reliever Juan NicaPlease see BASEBALL | 12A

season before recovering to win the Southeastern Conference championship. “They had their backs to the wall early in the season losing a game and they responded time and time again,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said. “The players responded extremely well. We didn’t do anything different, but I could tell the players had much more intensity to prove that they were going to do to get better.” Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio told similar stories of new-found resolve from their players following a loss. “The message that was sent was this is an opportunity to grow also,” Dantonio said. Stoops said he saw an immediate sign in practice that his players wouldn’t let the loss to Texas spoil their season. “What I noticed immediately was as much energy as any practice we had,” Stoops said. “Guys had all kind of energy. You could tell there was a determination they were going to do something about it. There was a determination to improve.” Clemson has won 10
or more games in five straight seasons. The Tigers beat Oklahoma 40-6 in last season’s Russell Athletic Bowl. Clemson beat Ohio State in the Orange Bowl following the 2013 season and beat LSU in the Chick-fil-A Bowl after the 2012 season. The Tigers won the Atlantic Coast Conference championship in 2011 for the first time since 1991. Swinney was selected the Home Depot Coach of the Year on Wednesday. The Tigers will take a 16-game winning streak into the playoff, the nation’s longest active streak. Swinney said Clemson deserves its place with the game’s elite teams. “There’s no question Clemson belongs,” he said. “We’ve been as consistent as anybody out there in the county and then you’ve got to step out of your conference and be able to win big games and we’ve done that.” This year’s bowl trip provides a new challenge. The four teams are playing to advance to the national championship game, but Swinney said he’s still keeping the focus on one game. “It’s not about planning for another game,” Swinney said. “It’s about winning this game.”

defensive player of the year); UCLA’s Ka’imi Fairbairn (Lou Groza Award for the nation’s top kicker); Iowa’s Desmond King (Jim Thorpe Award for the nation’s best defensive back); Baylor’s Corey Coleman (Biletnikoff Award for nation’s outstanding receiver); Utah’s Tom Hackett (Ray Guy Award for nation’s top punter. Also, former Marine hero Hank Goff of Concordia won the Sports Spirit Award. Former Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer won the NCFAA Contribution to College Football Award. On Wednesday, Clemson’s Dabo Swinney won the Home Depot Coach of the Year and Hunter Henry of Arkansas won the John Mackey Award for the nation’s outstanding tight end. Also, Georgia receiver Malcolm Mitchell won the AFCA Good Works Team captain award for his community service and off-field contributions and the Campbell Trophy for academic success was presented to Oklahoma center Ty Darlington. Henry rushed for 1,986 yards to break Herschel Walker’s Southeastern Conference single-season record and lead Alabama to the College Football Playoff. He ran for 189 yards and was picked as MVP in Alabama’s SEC
championship game win over Florida. Henry is considered the Heisman favorite. Mark Ingram of Alabama in 2009 was the last running back — and only Crimson Tide player — to win the Heisman. Henry said his focus is on helping Alabama win the national championship. A spot in the national championship game will be on the line when Alabama plays Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl on Dec. 31. Alabama lost to Ohio State in last year’s playoff semifinal in the Sugar Bowl. “That taste from last year is still in my mouth,” Henry said. “That one really bothered us.” Henry said having to face Alabama’s “relentless” defense helped him have success against other teams. “Every day it’s a challenge going up against them,” he said. Swinney said he is glad Watson is only a sophomore. Swinney said Watson was a “very deserving” Davey O’Brien winner. “I think they got it right,” Swinney said. “He’s special in every regard. ... He’s more than just a great football player. He’s a great young man. This is just the beginning for him. An incredibly bright future. I’m glad we’ve got him back for at least another year.”

Iger wary of NFL move to LA in ’16 Associated Press
BURBANK, Calif. — The man guiding the effort to build an NFL stadium near Los Angeles for the Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers said Thursday that time is running short to get a deal done for the 2016 season. Disney CEO Bob Iger told reporters that teams will be unable to move for next season if a decision is not made shortly, since relocation involves enormous work, from marketing tickets to new fans, finding temporary playing fields and finding homes for players and staff. “There is not much leeway,” said Iger, who is
serving as non-executive chairman of the joint venture planning the $1.8 billion stadium in the city of Carson. “If the decision is not made soon, neither team will be able to relocate” for 2016. NFL owners plan to meet again next month to consider a possible move to the LA area, which has lacked a team since the Rams and Raiders left after the 1994 season. Iger said he was confident league owners want to move a team — or teams — to the nation’s secondlargest media market, but “whether they get that done on a timely enough basis, I don’t know yet.”
While a growing consensus of owners see Los Angeles as a ripe opportunity, it unclear what teams might move in, or when. St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is pushing a rival stadium in nearby Inglewood, and he’s also willing to share his proposed stadium with either the Chargers or Raiders. Under current rules, the next opportunity for a team to file to relocate would be in January. Any decision to move would have to clear a tangle of league hurdles, including winning the support of at least 24 of the 32 teams. Iger’s comments, his first in public since tak-
ing the football post, came during a wide-ranging interview in which he discussed subjects from the need to touch up the Raiders’ rough-edged image to the potential challenges of selling tickets for two teams, simultaneously, to fans in a new market. Asked about a possible split in the Carson plan that could send a team to Inglewood with the Rams, Iger said the Chargers and Raiders “have a solid partnership.” “They are both committed to the partnership,” said Iger, emphasizing he was not speaking on behalf of team owners. “It is their goal to move together.”

sio agreed to a deal with Pittsburgh, one week after he was cut by the Los Angeles Dodgers. Reliever Tony Sipp stayed with the Houston Astros for an $18 million, three-year contact and first baseman Mark Reynolds accepted a $2.6 million, one-year contract with the Colorado Rockies. Those two deals were disclosed by a person familiar with each negotiation who spoke on condition of anonymity because no announcement was made. Former All-Star reliever Joakim Soria finalized his $25 million, three-year contract to return to the Kansas City Royals. And there were a pair of trades announced late in the day. The Los Angeles Angels acquired infielder Yunel Escobar from the Washington Nationals for right-handers Trevor Gott and Michael Brady. And the Atlanta Braves dealt 24-year-old catcher Christian Bethancourt to the San Diego Padres for right-hander Casey Kelly and minor league catcher Ricardo Rodriguez.
Bethancourt traded to Padres Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves have dealt away young catcher Christian Bethancourt after a disappointing season in which he failed to take advantage of his chance to take over the starting job. Once hyped as the catcher of the future, the 24-yearold Bethancourt was dealt to the San Diego Padres on Thursday for right-handed pitcher Casey Kelly and minor league catcher Ricardo Rodriguez. Bethancourt began the 2015 season as the No. 1 catcher but got off to a terrible start and wound being demoted to the minors. He returned late in the season, batting .200 with two hom-
ers and 12 RBIs. When the Braves re-signed 38-year-old A.J. Pierzynski and agreed to a deal this week with catcher Tyler Flowers, it was clear that Bethancourt’s days in Atlanta were numbered. Kelly adds to the surplus of young pitchers the Braves have stockpiled while undergoing a major overhaul. A former first-round pick who had Tommy John surgery before the 2013 season, he spent most of this past year with San Diego’s TripleA and Double-A affiliates, combining to go 2-10 with a 5.16 ERA. The 26-year-old Kelly is 2-5 with a 6.69 ERA in nine big league appearances. Rodriguez is only 17.

The birth of baby Jesus You’ll never end up ahead should take center stage when you try to get even W i t h Christmas drawing near, it’s natural that the birth of JeLora Ann sus should Huff take center stage. Back Porch E v e r since I was a child, I have been completely awed by the Christmas carols and songs describing Jesus’ birth. Regardless of how many times I hear them, I’m still amazed and many times am brought to tears. As I’ve grown older, I sometimes am even more overwhelmed when I think about the almost unbelievable reality that God, who created the world and established “time� itself, cared about His creation so much that He placed His only Son in the womb of a young girl to be born in a stable – all to show us the nature of Himself and redeem humanity. The above statement may be a “run-on sentence,� but so much more could be added to it and still never fully explain how or why He would show us so much love. In a devotional I read by Max Lucado, he compared Jesus leaving the celestial beauty of Heaven to come to places like feed troughs, carpentry shops, and cemeteries to one of us leaving a comfortable home with tasty food to go out and live in a tree as a bushy-tailed squirrel and settle in to a diet of nuts
and a bed of sticks and leaves. None of us would be willing to do that. A friend of mine went through a very rough time where she was so very disappointed in the way some things had gone in her life. She told me she was so tired of “being mad� that she finally just dropped the burden and determined to forget it, become somewhat numb, and go on until somehow things might change and God could restore her joy. When I think about God’s plan in sending Jesus, maybe He was so tired of “being mad� about the way His created beings were acting, He decided to fix it once and for all. Words in the song “In Christ Alone� remind us that on the cross as Jesus died, the wrath of God was satisfied – the Father could finally lay down His wrath and judgment as Jesus took all our sins upon Himself and suffered our punishment. The ultimate price was paid once and for all and now we can live in freedom and grace. How amazing is that! Now I know that the prophecies in the Old Testament foretold the coming of the Messiah in God’s amazing plan, but in the thousands of years before Jesus’ birth, the Father surely must have grown weary and tired of all the failures of mankind. The misunderstandings and jealousies that caused pain and death must have hurt the heart of God beyond what we can ever imagine.
Between the years of Old Testament history and the good news of the New Testament, it seems the Father remained quite silent for 400 years, taking a long, deep breath to enjoy fellowship with His Son before putting into motion the perfect plan for our eternal redemption. In bringing hope to us, we know He could have sent Jesus as a champion prince to rule on an earthly throne and redeem His people, but instead the plan was for a baby to be born in humble surroundings and grow up as a common servant boy and experience the things everyday people experience. Sometimes He was happy, sometimes sad; sometimes He hurt and was hurt by others; sometimes He laughed hysterically, sometimes He cried. ‌ So I’m thankful today that God didn’t just tell us in Old Testament scriptures what He was like and how we should live but instead He sent Jesus to live in physical form the love of God and set an example for us to follow. Stories can be told and thousands of songs can be written, but our human, finite minds cannot truly comprehend and explain something so amazing as the Gift that was given when a baby was born in Bethlehem to begin the process of eternal deliverance for mankind. I’m still in awe of it all! (Wenasoga resident Lora Ann Huff is a columnist for the Daily Corinthian.)
Driving through the country the o t h e r day I noticed the Gary words on Andrews a church’s front yard Devotionals sign. It read, “You will never get ahead of someone you are trying to get even with.� I thought to myself, what a tremendous truth in these words. So many of us go through life trying to be better than our neighbor or outdo someone in anything we try. It is human nature to be competitive in one form or another. Competitiveness is good when used in the correct form and not used in another person’s demise. I remember growing up that I wanted to be the best at whatever I attempted. In sports I usually was one of the better players however when I came across someone that was better than me, I would slack up in my competitiveness or either drop out. I though the entire world knew I was the best and it should be evident to anyone I competed with and it was a given that I would be on top. It didn’t take me long to find out the world didn’t work this way and that I wasn’t the only one competing. Many of us have found our self in similar situations when dealing with people, whether it is in business transactions or just friendly competi-
Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – Leviticus 19:18; Monday – Colossians 3:12-14; Tuesday – Proverbs 20:22-23; Wednesday – 1 Peter 3:8-12; Thursday – Proverbs 24:28-29; Friday – Romans 12:17-21; Saturday – 2 Thessalonians 1:3-4.
Remember what Paul said in Romans12:17; “Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.� tions. If we lose or feel we have been done wrong we sometimes go into a pattern of indecision or something even worse called holding a grudge. Holding a grudge against someone will only hurt you. Trying to get even or upstage someone that has done something to you or beat you in some type transaction will only keep you from doing the best you can in anything that you attempt. Many times we spend more time trying to get even with someone and allow many opportunities of growth to pass us by. This is also time that we have lost and can never get back. Our prosperity relies on our attitude and desire to move forward instead
of laterally toward what someone else is doing. We need to remember that we should forgive and forget. All of us need to do the best we can at anything we try. If someone creates a problem for us we need to handle the problem or go around it. It should never get us into turmoil and keep us from looking ahead. There are always going to be someone who is going to try and ruin you or keep you from achieving your goal. When this happens remember what Paul said in Romans 12:17; “Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.� When we have been offended or mistreated by someone, go to that person and try to make amends, however do not try and get even with them for their foolishness. Prayer: Thank you Lord for the time we have on this earth. Let us use this time to praise you and get along with our fellowman. Amen.

Artist Gallery features works of Corinth native BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The art gallery is adding the words, painting and knit works of former Corinthian Kathy BryantWilliams to its expanded December collection. “We’ve never had such an eclectic group of work in the gallery for Christmas,� said Sonny Boatman, the artist guild president. On Saturday, BryantWilliams will be at the gallery from 1 to 3 p.m. to sign copies of her second novel, “All Things Work Together Book II.� It continues the story of a quirky and candid heroine — a 30-something, twice-divorced single mother looking for a social life while working at low-paid nursing jobs. “I want them to laugh, cry and feel the pain and triumphs the protagonist feels,� said Bryant-Williams, “as she learns to put God and his kingdom first. She learns in doing this that all things she
needs will be added in her life.� Readers might find shades of life in a town such as Corinth in the book, which is subtitled, “Even If You Were Crazy and You Didn’t Care.� Now a resident of Oakland, Tenn., she is also exhibiting a number of oil on canvas paintings including scenes from Italy and a large interpretation of the Grand Canyon. She is also showing a number of knit afghans and Nativity scenes with clay figurines. “Her creativity seems to know no bounds,� said Boatman. “Her paintings have been shown at the Delta Fair, our gallery and some galleries in Memphis. Only one of these paintings have been shown here before.� He sees a “poetic realism� in some of the scenes. Her works will be on display and the books available through December. With lots of new items
Staff photo by Jebb Johnston
Alongside Kathy Bryant-Williams’ oil painting of an Italian villa, gallery volunteer Hannah Cranford shows one of the knit items displayed by Bryant-Williams. added to the gallery for the holiday period, Boatman hopes people will
keep it in mind while gift shopping. Items from Joe McKewen’s photo studio
also continue to be available through December. Gallery hours at 609
North Fillmore are Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
