Initiative provides free voter ID BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Mississippi’s voter identification requirement still awaits U.S. Department of Justice approval or rejection, but an outreach initiative has begun to help people who would need ID cards in order to vote. The voter ID law will make an ID available free of charge to any eligible voter who does not have another acceptable form of ID, such as a driver’s license.
A poster about the initiative hangs in the Circuit Clerk’s Office. It is not a topic that is stirring many questions from voters yet, said Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell. The Secretary of State’s Office said last week that it has seen a limited response to the initiative, with only 75 individuals contacting the office, and only 35 of those having no form of identification. “We are hoping this limited
response is due to a limited number of individuals who do not have an acceptable form of voter identification,� said Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann. The office said it “inundated the state� with the distribution of more than 5,000 posters and 10,000 postcards. By contacting the state office, individuals who will need a free voter ID card would be contacted following federal ap-
proval of the law. Transportation assistance would also be provided. In addition to a driver’s license, acceptable forms of identification include: ■a photo ID card issued by a branch, department or agency of the state; ■a United States passport; ■a U.S. or Mississippi state or local government employee photo ID; ■a Mississippi firearms li-
cense; â– a student photo ID issued by a Mississippi university, college or community college; â– a U.S. military ID; or â– a tribal photo ID. All cards must be current. People who want help with an ID card may call 1-855-8683745, see the website www.msvoterid.ms.gov, send an e-mail to msvoterid@sos.ms.gov or request info by mail at P.O. Box 136, Jackson, MS 39205.

Festival’s birth in 1987, festival-goers will get $2 off the gate admission if they dress in ‘80s style. The top-three finalists from the Slug Idol contest will take the stage at 7 p.m. on Friday. Cash prizes are $150 for Slug Idol and $100 for Jr. Slug Idol. Jamie Davis & Soul Gravy — one of country music’s busiest up-andcoming touring bands and the most popular live band in Northeast Mississippi — will take the stage at 9:45 p.m. with a set of their signature soulflavored, country-tinged, southern rock. A prolific singer, songwriter and performer, Davis hails from Prentiss County. The band, comprised of Davis, Dan Isbell, Jerry Carnathan, Lee Graham and John Staggers, has played shows from Guntown to Nashville, from Teutopolis, Ill. to Panama City Beach, Fla. They have opened for some of the biggest names in country music, including Dierks Bentley
and Hank Williams Jr. Their best-known song is “Mississippi Moonshine” from their second studio album, 2010’s “The Blue Album.” For more information about Jamie Davis & Soul Gravy, visit jamiedavisandsoulgravy.com. Saturday Corinth’s own Ben Mathis will open Saturday night’s entertainment at 6:30 p.m. A veteran of the popular Starkvillebased band Nash Street, Mathis won the 2009 Slug Idol contest. “It’s great to get some young groups involved in the festival. One of them, Corinth’s Ben Mathis, is now in Nashville and is coming back home for the show,” said Knight. The young singer and songwriter has lately been living in Nashville, playing venues and honing his songwriting craft. Karen Waldrup’s set begins a 8:15 p.m. Known as one of Nashville’s newest and brightest stars, Waldrup has been named one of Great American Country’s Top 25 songwriters.
From the humble beginnings of hosting her own writers night within her first month living in Nashville, to releasing her second CD, “With Love, Karen,” within only a year, Waldrup’s career has been a musical success story. Her fourth studio album, “The Beginning,” was released in May. Saturday night’s headliners, “Love and Theft,” are a Nashville-based country music duo taking the stage at 10 p.m. “We’re happy to have Love and Theft coming to Slugburger. Their recent song, ‘Angel Eyes,’ just went to the top-10 on the charts,” Knight said. “It’s been quite some time — if ever — since somebody that was that far up on the charts has played in Corinth.” Love and Theft’s Stephen Barker Liles and Eric Gunderson both sing lead vocals and play guitar. Since being signed to Lyric Street Records in 2009, the band has had success with its chart debut track “Runaway,” and

case. They were indicted last year for allegedly obtaining financing on the purchase of the home through a “straw purchaser” — a person used to fraudulently obtain a loan in the place of the true purchaser who would not qualify for the loan. The indictment alleged the defendants were unable to obtain the financing on the home themselves due to their financial situation and instead used another individual who applied for and obtained the loan for them without disclosing that he would not be living in the home or be responsible for repaying the loan.

Just what exactly is ‘Corinthian Ethic?’ DR. BERNARD S. PATRICK (The following may be of interest to Corinthians. There is some controversy as to the origin of “Corinthian Ethic,” but the concept most likely originated in Corinth, Greece as evidenced by the formation of “Corinthian Clubs” in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries. Author Paul C. Larsen in his book about sailing makes several references to the Corinthian concept. This concept surely is worth supporting, particularly in sporting activities.) Corinth, Mississippi, a town of 15,000 located in the northeastern corner of the state, is the only town or city named Corinth, excepting Corinth, Greece that is listed in the 1988 Encyclopedia Britannica. Corinth, Mississippi, owes this recognition to it’s location and role during the Civil War of 1861-1865. Corinth, formerly called the “Cross-City,” was the site of one of the only two junctions and crossings of two major railroads in the U.S. at the time of the Civil War. Being a Confederate state, it was targeted early for capture in order to disrupt the transfer of men and supplies for the Confederate forces. In April of 1862, a Union Army came southward on the Tennessee River and debarked on the west bank just south of Savannah, Tenn. at Pittsburgh landing near Shiloh Church, preparatory to attacking Corinth. The Confederates hoped to ambush and destroy the Union Army before it organized. The Union Army prevailed and went on to capture Corinth. The battle of Shiloh, April 6, 1862, was the bloodiest military battle historically up to this time. Corinth, named after Corinth, Greece, had little if any connection to the famed and ancient city -- which has existed since centuries before the birth of Christ. Among it’s many activities was the sport of yacht racing, which is the longest continuously existing sport in world history. Early on it is alleged the yachtsmen of Corinth, Greece came to consider yacht racing and other sports to be conducted only for the sport and pleasure, without regard to money or commercial gain. This came to be known as the “Corinthian Ethic” and has persisted through the ages. Through the years amateur sporting clubs frequently came together to follow this ethic and were often known as Corinthian Clubs. The Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary of 1979 defines a Corinthian as: 1) A citizen or native of Corinth, 2) A wealthy “man about town,” 3) An amateur yachtsman, 4) A gentleman amateur participant in sport activity. The Corinthian Ethic quite naturally promoted sportsmanship and the fair play, thus is a worthwhile endeavor. (Editor’s Note: Corinth, Miss. is the largest and oldest town of Corinth outside of Greece, but there are now others in the U.S. Two examples are Corinth, Ky. just off Interstate 75 between Lexington and Cincinnati and Corinth, Texas just north of the Dallas/Fort Worth area near Denton. Dr. Bernard S. Patrick is a former resident of Corinth and now lives in Jackson.)

The reality of jobs versus net jobs One of the reasons for the popularity of political rhetoric is that everybody can be right, in terms of their own rhetoric, no matter how much the rhetoric of one side contradicts the rhetoric of the other side. President Obama constantly repeats how many millions of jobs have been created during his administration, while his critics constantly repeat how many millions of jobs have been lost during his administration. How can both of them be right -- or, at least, how can they both get away with what they are saying? There are jobs and there are net jobs. This is true not only today but has been true in years past. Back during the 1980s, when there were huge losses of jobs in the steel industry, the government restricted the importation of foreign steel. It has been estimated that this saved 5,000 jobs in the American steel industry. But of course restriction of competition from lower-priced imported steel made steel more expensive to American producers of products containing steel. Therefore the price of these products rose, making them less in demand at these higher prices, causing losses of sales at home and
in the world market. The bottom line is that, while 5,000 jobs were saved Thomas in the AmerSowell ican steel industry, Columnist 26,000 jobs were lost in American industries that produced products made of steel. On net balance, the country lost jobs by restricting steel imports. None of this was peculiar to the steel industry. Restrictions on the importation of sugar are estimated to have cost three times as many jobs in the confection industry as they saved in the sugar industry. The artificially high price of sugar in the U.S. led some producers of confections to relocate to Mexico and Canada, where the price of sugar is lower. There is no free lunch in the job market, any more than there is anywhere else. The government can always create particular jobs or save particular jobs, but that does not mean that it is a net creation of jobs or a net saving of jobs. The government can create a million jobs tomorrow, just by hiring that many people. But where does the
government get the money to pay those people? From the private economy -- which loses the money that the government gains. With less money in the private sector, the loss of jobs there can easily exceed the million jobs created in the government or in industries subsidized by the government. The Obama administration’s creation of “green jobs” has turned out to cost far more money per job than the cost of creating a job in the private sector. In addition to reducing jobs in the private sector by taking money out of the private sector to pay for government-subsidized jobs, the Obama administration has made businesses reluctant to hire because of the huge uncertainties it has created for businesses as regards the cost of adding employees. With thousands of regulations still being written to implement ObamaCare, no one knows how much this will add to the cost of hiring new employees. In the face of this economic uncertainty, even businesses that have an increased demand for their products can meet that demand by working their existing employees overtime, instead of adding new employees. Many employers
hire temporary workers, who are not legally entitled to benefits such as health insurance, and who will therefore not be affected by the cost of ObamaCare. When President Obama boasts of the number of jobs created during his administration, the numbers he cites may be correct, but he doesn’t count the other jobs that were lost during his administration. His critics cite the latter. Both can claim to be right because they are talking about different things. What has been the net effect? During this administration, the proportion of the working age population that has a job has fallen to the lowest level in decades. The official unemployment rate does not count the millions of people who have simply given up looking for a job. If everybody gave up looking for a job, the official unemployment rate would fall to zero. But that would hardly mean that the problem was solved or that the “stimulus” worked. Creating particular jobs does not mean a net increase in jobs. (Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305. His website is www. tsowell.com.)
Examining the rise of food stamp nation Tom Vilsack is one of the most important welfare administrators in the nation. Oh, yeah -- he’s also secretary of agriculture. Two-thirds of the Agriculture Department’s budget is devoted to welfare programs. The biggest is food stamps, which is now the nation’s second-largest welfare program after Medicaid. Its inexorable growth during the past decade is a testament to government’s self-generating expansion. Asked what labor wanted, the great 20th-century union leader Samuel Gompers answered, “More.” The modern welfare state lives by the same credo. About 17 million people received food stamps back in 2000. Some 30 million received them in 2008. Roughly 46 million people receive them today. From 1 in 50 Americans on food stamps at the program’s national inception in the 1970s, 1 in 7 Americans are on them now. The grinding recession accounts for much of the increase the past few years, but not for its entirety. Spending on food stamps doubled between 2001 and 2006, even though unemployment was low in those years. Even when the economy is projected to im-

prove in the future, usage of food stamps will remain elevated above historic Rich norms. Food Lowery Stamp Nation is here National to stay. Review One of its pillars is so-called categorical eligibility, which means that if someone is eligible for another welfare program, he is presumptively eligible for food stamps. In 2000, the Clinton administration issued regulations saying that merely getting a noncash welfare benefit could make someone eligible. Getting a welfare brochure or referred to an 800 number for services is enough to qualify in almost all states. In Vermont, receiving a bookmark with a phone number and website for services is enough. Categorical eligibility effectively wiped out the program’s old asset test (i.e., you couldn’t have $30,000 in the bank and get food stamps), although income limitations still apply. In the Obama stimulus, the work requirement was suspended, too, and hasn’t been restored. The requirement
had discouraged young, able-bodied nonparents from utilizing the program; there are millions of them on food stamps. The bottom line is that government at all levels actively wants people on the program. Newt Gingrich famously calls Barack Obama “the food-stamp president.” But the first president worthy of the moniker was George W. Bush. His administration brought a Madison Avenue element to the otherwise unreconstructed Great Society program. Not everyone who is eligible for food stamps knows it or wants to sign up. Bush began a recruitment campaign. In the same vein, the Obama administration is running radio ads hailing food stamps as a way to lose weight. At the local level, governments spread the word and work to overcome residual cultural resistance to taking government benefits. The federal government pays $50 million in bonuses to states for signing people up. That the food-stamps program is part of the farm bill is itself a scam, an exercise in rural-urban logrolling that gives everyone an interest in seeing the bill pass. As every level of government works to grow the

program, attempts to scale it back are predictably savaged. When Jeff Sessions, a Republican senator from Alabama, advocated reforms to save $20 billion out of a $770 billion budget for food stamps during the next decade, he was portrayed as a Dickensian villain. The New York Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand accused him of not caring about kids and insisted food stamps are an engine of economic growth, since every $1 spent on the program allegedly generates $1.71 in economic activity. There’s nothing, apparently, that food stamps can’t do. Needless to say, there are destitute people who need help. But the goal should be to reduce dependence on food stamps to historic levels after the recession, and restore the asset test, re-establish a work requirement and implement a better system for income verification. When almost 15 percent of Americans are on food stamps, the government should reacquaint itself with two words: “too much.” (Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.

State had a lawyer. A prelimiSheriff: Victims not associated with Scouts nary hearing is July 26. SENATOBIA, Miss. (AP) — Authorities say sexual battery charges against a Boy Scouts leader in north Mississippi are not related to his work with the organization. Forty-one-year-old William Todd Brewer is being held in Tate County without bond on three charges of sexual battery and one count of child pornography after being arrested at his Senatobia home last week. Tate County Sheriff Brad Lance said Wednesday that Brewer’s alleged victims are not associated with Brewer’s job with the Scouts. Woody Woodward, CEO of the Memphis-based Chickasaw Council, said Wednesday that Brewer has been fired as the executive director of the Northwest Mississippi Chickasaw Council. Woodward said Brewer worked as a fundraiser and had little contact with children. It wasn’t clear if Brewer
62-year-old faces manslaughter charge MERIDIAN, Miss. (AP) — Authorities have charged a 62-year-old man with manslaughter in the death of a Lauderdale County woman whose body was found in a 55-gallon drum behind her home in Toomsuba in east Mississippi. Authorities say 60-yearold Elizabeth Morris was reported missing Monday by family members. She had failed to come home Sunday night from work. Her car was found Monday on Old Highway 45 north of the Lauderdale community. Sheriff Billy Sollie says Harry Wayne Walden was arrested Tuesday and is being held on $50,000 bond in the county jail. He described Walden as the woman’s boyfriend. Sollie says investigators believe the death was the result of a domestic dispute. An autopsy has been ordered.

Key Alzheimer results coming (AP) – Study results for three experimental drugs for Alzheimer’s are expected in the coming months after more than a decade of failed attempts to find a way to slow down the disease. There is no known cure for Alzheimer’s. Current medicines just temporarily ease symptoms of the mind-robbing disease. Results are due within a month or so from key studies of two drugs that aim to clear the sticky plaque gumming up patients’ brains. And results from a small, early test of a third drug will be reported next week at an Alzheimer’s conference in Canada. Experts say that if these three treatments fail, drug companies may pull out of the field in frustration. An estimated 5 million Americans have the disease.
Romney draws boos from NAACP HOUSTON (AP) — Republican Mitt Romney is telling black voters that he’s a better choice than President Barack Obama to help build their neighborhoods and lessen unemployment among African Americans. But Romney was greeted with boos from attendees at the NAACP’s annual meeting Wednesday in Houston when he pledged to repeal “Obamacare.” That’s the name Republicans have given the health care overhaul that was passed by Democrats and recently upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. Romney said he wouldn’t be running for president if he didn’t think he could do a better job than Obama, the nation’s first black president.
But Romney is unlikely to win the black vote. Some 95 percent of black voters backed Obama in 2008.
Freight train derails, causing fiery blast COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Part of a freight train carrying ethanol derailed and caught fire in Ohio’s capital city early Wednesday, shooting flames skyward into the darkness and prompting the evacuation of a mile-wide area as firefighters and hazardous materials crews monitored the blaze. Norfolk Southern Corp. said it appeared about 11 cars of a southbound train derailed around 2 a.m. near Interstate 71, southeast of the Ohio State University campus. The train, traveling from Chicago to Linwood, N.C., went off the tracks north of downtown, in an industrial area blocks from residential neighborhoods. Joel Priester said he watched the blast from his home two blocks away. “I saw flames, then I heard a loud sound, like a boom, and saw the flames shooting higher,” he said. “It looked like the sun exploded.” Three of the burning cars were tankers carrying ethanol, said Assistant Chief David Whiting of the Columbus fire division. After viewing the scene in daylight, authorities decided to let the fire burn out instead of trying to extinguish it. It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the derailment, which blocked access to about half of the Central Ohio Transit Authority’s fleet of vehicles, limiting the city’s public bus service. The National Transportation Safety Board said it was sending an investigator to the scene.
Two people who ran toward the scene before the explosion were injured but were able to take themselves to a hospital, fire Battalion Chief Michael Fowler said. None of the three personnel onboard the train was hurt, Norfolk Southern spokesman Dave Pidgeon said. He said he couldn’t comment on the crew’s safety record but said the company has been recognized in the industry for its overall safety record. About 50 evacuees went to an American Red Cross aid site set up at the state fairgrounds. Among them was Linda Ogletree, who lives a block from the accident site.
Low-income waivers may ease penalties WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration says low-income residents in states that decide to opt out of a big Medicaid expansion in the new health care law will not risk federal penalties as an unintended consequence. The Supreme Court upheld most of President Barack Obama’s health care law last week, including its requirement that virtually all Americans carry medical insurance. But the court gave states the option of saying no to a Medicaid expansion expected to provide coverage to more than 15 million people, mainly childless adults. Officials in some Republican-led states are already saying they’ll opt out. In a letter to governors Tuesday, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said low-income residents in those states who would have been eligible for the coverage will not face the individual insurance mandate.

Economists anticipate another dip in the latest weekly tally of applications for unemployment benefits. The number of people seeking unemployment aid two weeks ago fell to the lowest point in almost two months to 374,000. Forecasts call for the Labor Department to report today that unemployment applications rose slightly last week to 375,000. When applications rise above 375,000, it generally means that hiring isn’t strong enough to rapidly lower the unemployment rate.

The company, which owns and leases research and development properties primarily in Silicon Valley, is expected to post better funds from operations figures compared with the same quarter last year. Funds from operations is considered a key gauge of how well real estate investment trusts are performing.
Strong demand for nuts, bolts and other fasteners has helped drive steady sales growth for Fastenal. The company has reported higher quarterly revenue going back to 2010 as sales to its manufacturer and construction customers increased. Wall Street anticipates Fastenal will report today that its second-quarter earnings and revenue grew versus the same quarter last year.

Camp success opens opportunities BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Lots of love has earned tennis players more free opportunities in Alcorn County. The recent success of Kids Play Day followed by the Intro to Tennis on the adult side has opened up the door for weekly gatherings. “We will continue our free tennis opportunities through out the summer with Under the Lights on Monday Nights,” said Ginger Mattox. Mattox serves as the local Community Tennis Coordinator with United States Tennis Association Northeast Mississippi. She also coached the first tennis team at Kos-
suth High School, helping the squad to a runner-up finish in the division and a berth in the state tournament. Tennis players of all skill levels are invited to Crossroads Regional Park each Monday in July. Play will run from 6-8 p.m. Mattox loves the opportunities available in the sport and is striving to increase participation in the area. “Those that come can pair up and play,” said Mattox. Over 50 youth 6-16 participated in the Kids Play Day held in June at the Corinth High School tennis courts. The USTA Northeast Mississippi had set out to offer fun, hands-
on learning for youngsters. The event was free and rackets were provided to those who needed one. The adult Intro to Tennis Night at Crossroads Regional Park was also a success. Twenty-five participated and learned from instructor Michael Metz. Metz coached tennis at Mississippi State University and now works at Shiloh Ridge Athletic Club after returning to Northeast Mississippi. “Michael talked about the sport, gave beginning instructions and had participants running through several drills,” said Mattox. “We gave out door prizes at the end of
the night.” Mattox noted neither of the events would have been possible without volunteers. Sherry Shawl, Amy Porterfield, Becky Demeo Nelms, Jason Mattox, Chris Porterfield, Nancy Palmer, Peggy Parvin, Ann Carter and Robin Elliot provided services at one and/or of the other free endeavors. “Through volunteers, we are able to spend more time with each camper,” said Mattox.

Braves’ Jones gets a Royal sendoff The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Chipper Jones made a brand new stop on his farewell tour. The Atlanta Braves’ third baseman, who is retiring after the season, singled as a pinch hitter in the All-Star Game in his first-ever appearance at Kauffman Stadium. In a quirk of interleague scheduling, the Braves have never played in Kansas City. The 40-year-old Jones received a standing ovation from the fans when he came to the plate in the sixth inning and got another appreciative roar after singling off Chris Sales. “It was kind of hard to see
97 (mph) coming out of Sales’ hand,” Jones said. “You’re not going to get a base hit if you don’t swing the bat.” Before his grounder made it past second baseman Ian Kinsler and into the outfield, Jones was trying to leg out a hit. “Yeah, I was thinking beat it out all the way,” Jones said. “At 40 years old, legging out a hit in the All-Star Game. That’s exactly how I scripted it.” NL manager Tony La Russa suggested that Jones, an eight-time All-Star, address the team before the game. Jones said during the media day before the home run
got hung up between second and third Tuesday night during the NL’s 8-0 victory over the American League. At the plate, he was 0 for 1 with a strikeout and a walk. Still, his gaffe in left field and rundown on the bases didn’t stop Harper from savoring the moment. “It was a lot of fun. It was a great game,” he said. The only All-Stars younger than Harper were a pair of 19-year-old pitchers: Dwight Rookie roundup Gooden of the New York Mets Bryce Harper finally acted in 1984 and Hall of Famer his age at the All-Star game.

derby that he wasn’t big on speeches. But he took La Russa up on the offer. “We’ve won two. Win three, and that’s a winning streak,” Jones told the team. “We have an opportunity to do that tonight. And I am not going out losing my last one. So, you with me?” It certainly appeared that they were.
Allmendinger blames bad test on stimulant The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Suspended NASCAR driver AJ Allmendinger said Wednesday that he tested positive for a stimulant and was collecting his medicines and supplements in an attempt to figure out what got him in trouble. A statement issued by Allmendinger’s business manager did not identify the stimulant and said the driver does not know what caused him to fail the random test conducted June 29. He was suspended Saturday and NASCAR has
not revealed the substance, either. “AJ tested positive for a stimulant. He has no idea why the first test was positive, and he has never knowingly taken any prohibited substance,” said Tara Ragan, vice president of Allmendinger’s Walldinger Racing Inc. “AJ is collecting his medicines and supplements for testing to determine whether an over-thecounter product caused his positive test.” Allmendinger is the second Sprint Cup Series driver to be
suspended under the NASCAR drug policy implemented in 2009. The 30-year-old Allmendinger has requested his “B” urine sample be tested, and it’s not clear when that will occur. Allmendinger said Tuesday that he would never knowingly take a prohibited substance. “Obviously I would never do anything to jeopardize my opportunity here at Penske Racing or to my fellow drivers. I am very conscious about
my training and health and would never knowingly take a prohibited drug,” he said. According to NASCAR’s drug policy, a stimulant is defined as “amphetamine, methamphetamine, Ecstasy (MDMA), Eve (MDEA), MDA, PMA, Phentermine, and other amphetamine derivatives and related compounds.” In March, Allmendinger signed on as a brand ambassador for “Fuel in a Bottle,” energy and protein power
break of positive tests for the substance at Louisiana tracks, resulting in suspensions for several trainers. Kentucky regulators took that as a sign they need to be vigilant. “We have not received any intelligence suggesting it has been, or is being used in Kentucky,” said Mary Scollay, equine medical director for the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission. “However,
the detection of dermorphin in other racing jurisdictions’ post-race samples means that Kentucky needs to be testing for it.” Post-race urine samples from five of the 20 Derby horses were tested for the substance, as were samples from four of the Oaks entries, said Dick Brown, a racing commission spokesman. The commission said no dermorphin was detected in the sam-
ple testing. The Kentucky Derby, the first leg of the Triple Crown series, is run on the first Saturday in May at Churchill Downs in Louisville. The Oaks features 3-year-old fillies and is run the day before at the famed track. The methodology to test for dermorphin recently became available at the laboratory re-
Campbell on preseason Ray Guy list Officials: Derby horses free of potent painkiller

The Associated Press
Ole Miss senior Tyler Campbell has been named to the preseason watch list for the 2012 Ray Guy Award, which honors the nation’s top collegiate punter. The list of 25 candidates was announced Wednesday by the Augusta Sports Council. The Rebel senior from Little Rock, Ark., was also selected preseason AllSEC second team by the Birmingham News and Lindy’s and was chosen third team by Athlon. He is a two-time all-conference honoree and the 2010 NCAA punting champion.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — No traces of a powerful painkiller were found in sample testing from horses running in this year’s Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks, state horse racing regulators said Wednesday. The state recently began testing race horses for dermorphin, a substance more powerful than morphine. It comes amid a recent an out-

That made Harper the youngest position player to be selected for an All-Star team, perhaps qualifying more for his potential than for his production. He was batting .282 at the break with eight homers and 25 RBIs. Harper was among an AllStar-record five rookies this year, one more than in 2001 and 2003. The 2001 class is pretty distinguished — Albert Pujols, Jimmy Rollins, Ben Sheets and Ichiro Suzuki. In 2003, the rookies who made it were Lance Carter, Mike MacDougal, Hideki Matsui and Dontrelle Willis. Among other rookies, 20-yearold Mike Trout of the Angels had a hit, a walk and a stolen base. Wade Miley of the Diamondbacks allowed a hit in one-third of an inning and Ryan Cook of the Oakland worked a scoreless inning. “I’m going to remember this the rest of my life,” Trout said.
Dazzling footwork Forget about New York Fashion Week and all those runways in Milan. If you wanted to see some dazzling footwear, you needed to watch the All-Star game. Melky Cabrera made an MVP statement in his fluorescent orange spikes, courtesy of Nike, while the Mets’ David Wright also trotted out wearing cleats that resembled traffic cones. Curtis Granderson wore bright white shoes that stood out even against the starched white pinstripes of the Yankees, while Giants slugger Pablo Sandoval had orange and gold cleats, and Nationals rookie Bryce Harper rocked some golden kicks when he entered the game.
Billy’s at-bats Designated hitter Billy Butler, the Royals’ lone All-Star representative, was given a standing ovation when he entered the game as a pinch hitter for David Ortiz in the seventh inning. Butler grounded out to shortstop, but got another chance with Elvis Andrus on second base and one out in the ninth. After another ovation, Pirates closer Joel Hanrahan struck out Butler. The affable Butler might not have gotten his chance if not for Ortiz, who started the game as the AL’s designated hitter. It was Ortiz who pushed manager Ron Washington to make the change.
Cameo appearance The longtime right-hand man of National League manager Tony La Russa’s doesn’t think he’ll return to the game, either. Dave Duncan, La Russa’s pitching coach for more than 30 years with the White Sox, Athletics and Cardinals, is on an open-ended leave of absence to be with his ailing wife and is living in southwest Missouri. He hasn’t officially retired but said Tuesday he doesn’t anticipate coaching again.

The Miami Heat got two more shooters. The Orlando Magic, at least for now, are keeping their center. A flurry of deals were completed Wednesday and another one was put on hold on the first day contracts could be signed in the NBA. Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis inked their deals with the NBA champions, who will rely on their perimeter accuracy to
create more space on the floor for LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. The Spurs announced Tim Duncan was staying in San Antonio and the Knicks completed a sign-and-trade to bring Marcus Camby to New York. But there’s no deal for the best big man of them all in the NBA right now. The Magic can’t find an agreement they like for All-Star center Dwight Howard, who
has asked for a trade to Brooklyn. The Magic have tried to accommodate, only to find nothing from the Nets that fit their desires. “We’ve had discussions with Brooklyn, we’ve had discussions with a host of different teams about a host of different issues. And the answer is, yes we’re still talking to them,” Magic general manager Rob Hennigan said. “We’re still looking to do whatever it is

Jeremy Mayfield, the first driver to be suspended under the policy, tested positive for methamphetamine. He has denied for more than three years that he ever took meth, and blamed the positive test on a mix of an over-thecounter allergy remedy and a prescription for attention deficit disorder.

Ragan said Allmendinger is working through NASCAR’s process to resolve the issue. “AJ and all of us at Walldinger Racing respect NASCAR’s testing program, and he has requested that his “B” sample be tested as part of the process of getting to the bottom of this,” she said.

Short Hops
Jered Weaver
Jered Weaver, Los Angeles Weaver is the hottest pitcher in the American League right now and had a strong case to be the All-Star Game starter. He won both starts last week and didn’t allow a run over 15 innings in wins over Cleveland and Baltimore. Since his June 20 return from a muscle strain, he has won all four starts and given up just one run over 27.2 innings. He is 10-1 with a 1.96 ERA for the season.
Andrew McCutchen, Pittsburgh Having played in relative anonymity over the past few years in Pittsburgh, fans all over are becoming familiar with the distinctive dreadlocks of the best Pirate. Last week, McCutchen batted .517 with a 1.479 OPS. He led the majors with 11 runs and hit three homers with nine RBIs. The centerfielder’s work for the week included three three-hit games and one four-hit game, raising his season average from .346 to a league-best .362.
The Pirates are surging in the National League, taking over the lead in the Central division, and McDonald is a big reason for the Bucs’ recent hot streak. He tossed 14 innings last week in wins over Houston and San Francisco, giving up just eight hits and five walks. The Pirates have won eight of his last 10 starts, and the righthander gave up just one run in each of the two losses.
Mike Olt, 3B, Texas The Rangers’ future third baseman is blossoming at the Double-A level this summer. Playing for Frisco in the Texas League, Olt is batting .294 with 22 bombs and 63 RBIs in 77 games. His strikeouts are still a bit high, but he is showing the willingness to take a walk with an on-base percentage over .400. Batting cleanup for the U.S. squad in the Futures Game, Olt had an RBI double in five at-bats.
July 12, 1967 Solo shots by third basemen Brooks Robinson of the Orioles and Dick Allen of the Phillies left the All-Star Game tied heading into extra innings at Anaheim. Reserve Cincinnati third baseman Tony Perez added a third solo shot off Kansas City’s Catfish Hunter in the top of the 15th to give the NL a 2-1 win.
July 14, 1987 Tim Raines of the Montreal Expos collected three hits, including a two-run triple in the 13th inning that provided the winning margin, as the National League defeated the American League, 2-0, in the All-Star Game. Raines was named MVP. Neither side had a runner reach third base until the ninth inning.
LA Angels at NY Yankees Both American League contenders closed the first half on a high note. The Yankees survived the loss of long-time closer Mariano Rivera and injuries to starting pitchers CC Sabathia and Andy Pettitte. Aftert this visit to New York, Los Angeles travels to Detroit for four games, then hosts Texas for three, making this a critical 10game stretch for the Angels if they hope to run down the Rangers in the second half. The Yankees will not have ace Sabathia back for this series, but Ivan Nova and Hiroki Kuroda have been solid all season.

Since baseball expanded to the three-division format in 1994 (in the 18 seasons that have concluded with a postseason) 66 of the 108 teams that were in first place at the All-Star break went on to win their division (61.1%). Of the 144 teams in line for a playoff spot, 87 of them actually made the playoffs (60.4%). So, there’s a pretty good chance that four of the six division leaders will hang on to their leads. So which teams are most likely to see their leads vanish? Here’s a look at how the races might shape up in the second half.
AL EAST While the Orioles, Rays and Blue Jays toyed with fans early in the season, no one really believed that the Yankees and Red Sox would finish near the bottom of the division. Baltimore is hanging around longer than expected, but the wheels are beginning to come off. The Rays may have a late charge in them, and the Red Sox are too talented not be in the hunt when they get completely healthy. But this is New York’s division to lose, and the Yankees won’t let it slip away in September.
AL CENTRAL
James McDonald, Pittsburgh
Boston at Tampa Bay The Red Sox won five of the first nine meetings this season, with seven of those games played at Fenway Park. After this weekend, the teams that could be battling for the final wild card spot will not meet again until late in September. The Red Sox pitchers must prove they can shut down offenses, and the Tampa Bay hitters must show that they can score runs.
Sizing Up Second-Half Races
Kevin Youkilis, Chicago The former fan favorite in Boston has been a catalyst for the White Sox offense over the past two weeks. Last week, Youk batted .478 with three home runs and 10 RBIs. He hit safely and drove in runs in each of his six games last week, with both streaks currently at seven games.
St. Louis at Cincinnati The rivalry may not be the same without Tony La Russa in the Cardinals’ dugout, but certainly the manager’s perceived All-Star snub of second baseman Brandon Phillips and pitcher Johnny Cueto is not sitting well in Cincinnati. These two teams are trying to chase down the Pirates as the three-team race begins immediately after the break.
The Detroit Tigers are the most disappointing team in the American League. And Chicago may be the most surprising. Playing with as many as 10 rookies and a rookie manager (at any level), the Sox are beginning to build a little cushion. But Detroit will find a way to win this division. The lineup is potent, the bullpen is sound, and the rotation is good enough. It’s the defense that must improve, and expect manager Jim Leyland to see that it does.
AL WEST Most fans thought when the Angels signed Albert Pujols and C.J. Wilson, that this would be a dogfight to the finish. The Rangers are just too good for the Angels this season. Los Ange-

les had a terrific June but gained no ground on Texas. This could be a runaway for the Rangers.
AL WILD CARD The Angels will secure the first wild card spot, but the second will be up for grabs through the final weekend of the season. Both Boston and Tampa Bay from the East will be in the race, while Chicago or Cleveland could take advantage of a softer division schedule in the Central. Expect the Rays’ starting pitching to be the deciding factor and give Tampa Bay the final playoff spot.
NL EAST The Marlins are streaky enough to put together at least one more run. Atlanta will hang with Washington behind the Braves’ solid pitching and deep bullpen. The Nationals, who own the best record in the NL, have the best pitching and a talented, energetic lineup. Washington will hang on, but it will get tense down the stretch.
NL CENTRAL
NL WEST
This may prove to be the most exciting, free-for-all race in the majors this season. With the division-leading Pirates, the second-place Reds and defending world champion Cardinals, the NL Central could go any of three ways. The Reds, who finish the season with a road trip to Pittsburgh and St. Louis, don’t seem to have enough pitching to win this division, and the Pirates may not have enough offense. Will that open the way for the Cardinals? This race will stay tight, and the two factors that will determine the outcome will be health and acquisitions. The Cardinals are the deepest team that can withstand injuries, but also the most likely to suffer injury issues. One or two minor injuries in Pittsburgh could easily derail that team. While we can’t expect magic dust to settle in St. Louis again this season, I’ll still give a slight edge to the experienced Cardinals at the wire.
Over the past few weeks, the Dodgers and Giants have exchanged blows and swapped a little time in first place. Somehow the Dodgers continue to win without Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier, who provide the bulk of the Los Angeles offense. With Kemp coming back after the break and strong pitching, the Dodgers will finish in first place.
NL WILD CARD Talk about a real free-for-all that could see lead changes multiple times over the last couple of weeks of the season. The Braves, Giants, Marlins, Cardinals, Pirates, Reds and maybe even the Mets or Phillies could be a factor. And don’t forget about the Diamondbacks. When it all shakes out, it will be the Giants hosting the second-place team in the Central division. And we’re going with the Pirates, who will make their first postseason appearance since 1992.
Losses for the Giants’ Tim Lincecum at the All-Star break. It marks the first time a former Cy Young winner had 10 losses at the break since Lincecum’s teammate Barry Zito was 4-12 in 2008.

TRIVIA ANSWER: Cleveland’s Bob Feller in 1938 and Dwight Gooden of the Mets in 1984.
• The Texas Rangers were a season-high 21 games over .500 on June 30. Texas dropped five straight to open the month of July, and that remains the high-water mark for any team this season. The Yankees are currently at 19 games over .500, the highest current mark. Back on June 17, the Dodgers stood at 17 games over breakeven, the highest mark in the National League this season, one game ahead of the Nationals’ best record on July 7. • Adam Jones, who leads the Orioles in virtually every offensive category, is gaining a reputation for being clutch. Of his 20 home runs this season, 12 have either tied the game or given Baltimore the lead. • In typical Joe Maddon fashion, the unconventional manager decided the best way to relieve designated hitter Luke Scott from his 0-for-36 slump would be for him to make his first appearance in the field this season. Scott started at first base, but alas the slide grew to 0-for-41 until he smacked a two-run homer against the Indians. Maddon offered a similar solution for first baseman Carlos Pena earlier this season. Suffering through an 8-for-69 rut, the first baseman batted leadoff for the Rays. With the not-so-fleet-of-foot Pena leading off, the Rays went 4-1 in the first five games. Without seeing significant improvement in Pena’s batting average, and once the winning stretch ended, he was moved back down the lineup.
Rangers Scored fewest runs so far in July. Yankees Largest lead in the majors — and growing. Nationals Success seems to follow Davey Johnson everywhere. Angels Pitchers lead majors with 13 shutouts. White Sox Robin Ventura deserves tremendous credit for team’s success. Braves Finished first half with sweep at Philadelphia. Dodgers Last in majors in extra-base hits, need Kemp and Ethier back. Giants Given up 55 runs in nine games since four straight shutouts. Pirates Won six of last seven series to end first half. Reds 6-9 vs. St. Louis and Pittsburgh so far this season. Rays Tampa Bay is 37-7 when scoring four runs or more. Orioles Terrific managing job by Buck Showalter. Mets R.A. Dickey should be starting the All-Star Game. Cardinals World champs had identical 46-40 mark last year. Tigers Prince Fielder and Miguel Cabrera in top four in RBIs in AL. Blue Jays Only team with two teammates combined for 50 homers. Indians Forgotten team in AL Central race. A’s Bad time for All-Star break, won 17 of last 25. Diamondbacks Trevor Bauer could be huge boost in second half. Red Sox Lead majors with 314 extra-base hits. Marlins How much can Carlos Lee boost offense? Brewers Trade bait Zack Greinke will make three consecutive starts. Twins 6-13 vs. division leaders; 30-36 against all other teams. Mariners Only team in AL with as many as 50 losses (51). Royals All-Star Game hosts are 34-33 after horrific start. Phillies Entering the break in disarray. Rockies Rox are 9-22 since early June. Padres Ended first half with downer thanks to Cincinnati. Cubs Finally, a break from the cellar, thanks to the Astros. Astros Rebuilding continues; growing pains may intensify.
More of the same from Verlander after banner 2011 The Associated Press
DETROIT — After winning the American League MVP last season, Justin Verlander might be even more important to the Detroit Tigers in 2012. The overpowering right-hander has already thrown a career-high five complete games this year, bolstering a struggling rotation and helping the Tigers stay in the thick of the AL Central race. No, he’s not likely to go 24-5 again, but Verlander — the American League starter
in Tuesday night’s All-Star game — has been every bit as dependable as he was when he pulled off his Cy Young-MVP double last season. “He’s pretty much the same all along. He gets locked in,” manager Jim Leyland said. “He has a special way that he gets ready and he does that for every start. He doesn’t do anything different.” Verlander struggled in the All-Star game, allowing five runs in the first inning. He’s also 9-5, so
his record probably won’t look as gaudy as it did at the end of last season. Aside from that, very little has changed. His 2.58 ERA is right around last year’s 2.40. His strikeout and walk rates are still impressive. Opponents are hitting .200 off him — compared with .192 in 2011. And the Tigers have certainly leaned on their ace. They were favored by many to repeat as division champions after signing Prince Fielder in the off-
season, but they trail the first-place Chicago White Sox by 3 1/2 games. Fielder and Miguel Cabrera have hit well, but Detroit’s defense has been a problem, closer Jose Valverde has struggled with his health and his effectiveness and, aside from Verlander, the lowest ERA in the Tigers’ starting rotation belongs to rookie Drew Smyly at 4.42. Through all of those troubles, Verlander has been unfazed. He’s now pitched at least six innings
in 60 consecutive regularseason starts, and that’s a big reason why the Tigers are still very much a threat in the second half. “Stayed in it — surviving’s the right way to say that,” Verlander said. “There’s been opportunities where we could have made a move and didn’t, and there’s been opportunities where we could have gone backward and didn’t. I know it’s been frustrating for us, it’s been frustrating for the fans and the city. But I think they should
hang with us. I think this second half holds good promise.” Before this year, Verlander had never thrown more than four complete games in a season. He threw his fifth last week — a four-hitter in a win over Minnesota. “There was a time that we used to irritate him by bunting. Our thought was we could rattle him,” Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. “He’s matured and he’s confident.”

Horoscopes BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The Taurus moon invokes the spirit of Venus, emphasizing beauty, grace and the luxuries of life. And though the Venus-ruled aspects of existence tend to be frothy and fun, they are also essential in some way. As Dorothy Parker said, “Take care of the luxuries, and the necessities will take care of themselves.” ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re the warrior of the zodiac, but even when General Chaos and Major Disaster seem to be in charge of your forces, you’re still the commander in chief. Today’s seemingly tough decision will be no match for you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you see people, you really see them: traits, talents, faults, tendencies. You take in the full breadth of their character immediately -but it will take many days to process all you’ve seen. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Professional relationships feel a little blurry of late, but remember that you’re the only one in the driver’s seat. Watch that yellow line, and remind others to stay in their appropriate lanes. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve backtracked long enough. It’s high time you began moving forward. Don’t worry about the thickness of the jungle in front of you; your machete is sharper than you realize. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Talent is more common than you think; persistence and perseverance are the real precious commodities. Remember to stock up on them, and stop comparing yourself to those for whom things seem to come easy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll study the people around you, curious about their story and interested in why your paths have intersected. That second part you’ll probably keep to yourself, and rightly so, but it will come up sooner or later. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your air-sign nature allows you to fly in your imagination lately, though it may seem to you now that your wings are clipped. Unfold them, stretch them out, and hop off of your perch and out of the open cage. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have the feeling that no one in this world has it easy. Even the privileged ones deal with their own set of issues, and it would be unfair to judge. Your feeling for humanity will be profound. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You like working with a team because knowing that all of your hearts beat for the same thing is a thrill in itself. You’ll get your wish. Everyone will rally together. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’ll do what it takes to finish the job, which seems like a nobrainer to you. You’d be surprised at how many people don’t, or for some reason can’t, rise to the
challenge. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). You like people to speak the truth, but since you have a good feeling for such things, you really don’t need them to. Words have a resonance, and that tells you what is accurate. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The world settles up with you in some way. For starters, you’ll receive a wonderful bit of mail, check enclosed. What’s owed to you will be repaid in other ways, as well. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 12). You’ll dive into new ventures. The best projects have humble beginnings. The bare bones way in which things start will be in stark contrast to the lavish, intricate way they end up. You’ll make an important sale in the next 10 weeks and will close another big deal in November. Keep trying to make powerful connections. Aquarius and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 2, 1, 20 and 25. ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “I’m living with a lot of fear lately because I may not be able to keep my house. I married a man three years ago who I thought was a good guy, and he’s turned out to be very stingy. He has a job, but he doesn’t bring the money home, or at least he brings very little of it my way. He pays the utilities, and I pay for everything else: food, groceries and mortgage. I’m a Cancer,
and my home is very important to me. But I’m not going to slave away so that he can live for free! Every time I bring this up, it starts a fight. What should I do? This is my fifth marriage, and I don’t want to fail again.” Being able to agree on domestic matters and divisions of responsibility is an essential function of marriage. This is especially crucial to moonchildren like you; domesticity is your main avenue of selfexpression. Though you have many other talents and ways of excelling, whatever you do outside the home is a reflection of the health of that domain. Be courageous and find a solution. If the solution is to divorce and move to a place you can afford on your own, you’ll still be better off than living in the limbo you’re experiencing now. CELEBRITY PROFILES: Bill Cosby has had a hand in many areas of media, from standup comedy to television to books, music and political activism. There’s almost no area of entertainment he hasn’t touched with his particular brand of humor and warmth. Cancer people often find a sort of refuge in humor. It’s like a hard shell of defense that keeps their soft emotions intact.

SINNERS PRAYER Thousands have been taught that all that one has to do to be saved is to pray the sinners prayer. The Bible does not teach that one is saved by praying the sinners prayer. Prayer is a spiritual blessing available only to those who are in Christ. Paul revealed that all spiritual blessings are in Christ. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Eph I :3). Paul describes those who were not in Christ in Ephesians 2: 12. “That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world”. The Bible reveals how and when one gets into Christ. “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death” (Rom 6:3)? One is saved by the precious blood of Christ and not by a sinners prayer. God does not hear the unrighteous. “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight” (Prov 15:8). Peter taught the same thing in 1 Peter 3:12. “For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil”. John revealed what a blind man said after he was healed in (John 9:31). ‘’Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth”. The Jews were told in Acts 2:38, “...Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost” . Saul of Tarsus was told, “And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord” (Acts 22: 16). The sinners prayer is not taught in the Bible . God requires faith, repentance, confession of faith and baptism in order for one to be saved” (Heb I I :6; Acts 17:30; Acts 8:37; Acts 2:38). The sinners prayer did not originate with God, but with men. There is not a conversion in the book of Acts where they were told to pray the sinners prayer. Notice what God wants all to do. “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth” ( I Tim 2:4).

Baseball cards in Ohio attic might fetch millions BY JOHN SEEWER Associated Press
DEFIANCE, Ohio — Karl Kissner picked up a soot-covered cardboard box that had been under a wooden dollhouse in his grandfather’s attic. Taking a look inside, he saw hundreds of baseball cards bundled with twine. They were smaller than the ones he was used to seeing. But some of the names were familiar: Hall of Famers Ty Cobb, Cy Young and Honus Wagner. Then he put the box on a dresser and went back to digging through the attic. It wasn’t until two weeks later that he learned that his family had come across what experts say is one of the biggest, most exciting finds in the history of sports card collecting, a discovery worth perhaps millions. The cards are from an extremely rare series issued around 1910. Up to now, the few known to exist were in so-so con-
dition at best, with faded images and worn edges. But the ones from the attic in the town of Defiance are nearly pristine, untouched for more than a century. The colors are vibrant, the borders crisp and white. “It’s like finding the Mona Lisa in the attic,� Kissner said. Sports card experts who authenticated the find say they may never again see something this impressive. “Every future find will ultimately be compared to this,� said Joe Orlando, president of Professional Sports Authenticator. The best of the bunch — 37 cards — are expected to bring a total of $500,000 when they are sold at auction in August during the National Sports Collectors Convention in Baltimore. There are about 700 cards in all that could be worth up to $3 million, experts say. They include such legends as Christy Mathewson and Connie Mack. Kissner and his family say the cards belonged
to their grandfather, Carl Hench, who died in the 1940s. Hench ran a meat market in Defiance, and the family suspects he got them as a promotional item from a candy company that distributed them with caramels. They think he gave some away and kept others. “We guess he stuck them in the attic and forgot about them,� Kissner said. “They remained there frozen in time.� After Hench and his wife died, two of his daughters lived in the house. Jean Hench kept the house until she died last October, leaving everything inside to her 20 nieces and nephews. Kissner, 51, is the youngest and was put in charge of the estate. His aunt was a pack rat, and the house was filled with three generations of stuff. They found calendars from the meat market, turn-of-the-century dresses, a steamer trunk from Germany and a dresser with Grandma’s clothes neatly folded in the drawers.
Months went by before they even got to the attic. On Feb. 29, Kissner’s cousin Karla Hench pulled out the dirty green box with metal clips at the corners and lifted the lid. Not knowing whether the cards were valuable, the two cousins put the box aside. But Kissner decided to do a little research. The cards were at his office in the restaurant he owns when he realized they might have something. He immediately took them across the street and put them in a bank vault. Still not knowing whether the cards were real, they sent eight to expert Peter Calderon at Heritage Auctions in Dallas, which recently sold the baseball that rolled through the legs of Boston Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner in the 1986 World Series for $418,000. Calderon said his first words were “Oh, my God.� “I was in complete awe,� he said. “You just don’t see them this nice.�
The cards are from what is known as the E98 series. It is not clear who manufactured them or how many were produced, but the series consists of 30 players, half of them Hall of Famers. The experts at Heritage Auctions checked out the family’s background, the age of the home and the history of the meat market. They looked at the cards and how they were printed. “Everything lines up,� said Chris Ivy, the company’s director of sports auctions. They then sent all the cards to Professional Sports Authenticator, which had previously authenticated fewer than 700 E98s. The Ohio cards were the finest examples from the E98 series the company had ever seen. The company grades cards on a 1-to-10 scale based of their condition. Up to now, the highest grade it had ever given a Ty Cobb card from the E98 series was a 7. Sixteen Cobbs found in the
Ohio attic were graded a 9 — almost perfect. A Honus Wagner was judged a 10, a first for the series. Retired sports card auctioneer Barry Sloate of New York City said: “This is probably the most interesting find I’ve heard of.� The highest price ever paid for a baseball card is $2.8 million, handed over in 2007 for a 1909 Honus Wagner that was produced by the American Tobacco Co. and included in packs of cigarettes. Another similar Wagner card brought $1.2 million in April. (Wagner’s tobacco cards were pulled from circulation, either because the ballplayer didn’t want to encourage smoking among children or because he wanted more money.) Heritage Auctions plans to sell most of the Ohio cards over the next two of three years through auctions and private sales so that it doesn’t flood the market. In all, they could bring $2 million or $3 million, Ivy said.
Some corn farmers give up, mow fields as drought worsens BY DAVID PITT Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa — Some cornstalks in fields around the farm where David Kellerman works stand tall, but appearances can be deceiving. When the husks are pulled back, the cobs are empty. No kernels developed as the plants struggled with heat and drought. The soil in Kellerman’s part of southern Illinois is like dust after less than an inch of rain since midApril. This week, he and the farmer he works with packed it in. They cut and baled the withered plants to use as hay for their
cattle. As the worst drought in nearly 25 years spreads across the nation, farmers in Illinois and Indiana are finding themselves among the hardest hit. But they are not alone, and conditions are likely to get worse throughout the middle of the country with an unusually hot summer in the forecast. Almost a third of the nation’s corn crop is already showing signs of damage, and on Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture released yet another report predicting that farmers will get only a fraction of the corn an-
ticipated last spring when they planted 96.4 million acres. It’s too soon to say how that will affect food prices. The cost of meat is most likely to be affected because corn is used to feed cattle, and its price is usually passed along in the cost of hamburger and steak. But meat prices were already rising and were expected to stay high after last year’s drought in Texas forced many ranchers to reduce their herds. Corn also is widely used as an ingredient — in corn flakes to ketchup, bread and soda pop — but it accounts for a small fraction
of their costs compared to such things as transportation and marketing. A rule of thumb is that food prices typically climb about 1 percent for every 50 percent increase in average corn prices, said Richard Volpe, a USDA food markets research economist. The government has already predicted food prices will increase this year by as much as 3.5 percent. It won’t be clear until the fall, when all the damage is known, how much the crop loss will add to that, Volpe said. Kellerman, 28, farms near Du Bois, Ill., with
his neighbor Gerald Kuberski. He said they had been holding out hope for rain, but gave up last week after more than a week of 100-degree or hotter days. Temperatures over 95 degrees while corn is pollinating can stunt the growth of ears and prevent kernels from fully developing. “Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday we had 108 degrees. It just pretty much fried the corn,� Kellerman said. He and Kuberski considered selling 20 cattle because they expect feed costs to be high, but so many farmers are trying
to sell animals that prices in their area have plummeted. “You can’t really give them away so we decided to keep them and feed them this baled corn,� Kellerman said. “We don’t know how it’s going to work.� The USDA said Wednesday it now expects farmers to get 146 bushels per acre this year, rather than the 166 bushels per acre it predicted earlier. They will harvest an estimated 12.97 billion bushels of grain, a 12 percent reduction from an estimate in June of 14.79 billion bushels.

There must be a great rejoicing on the streets of Heaven Because there is a real sadness in this old world today. Because you have gone away. I miss you my little angel, But I know you are with God today. I keep my faith, courage, joy, laughter. Because some day God will call me home, To be with you beside God’s Heavenly throne.
