Leaders talk local school safety BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Local education leaders are focused on their efforts to keep the students of Alcorn County and Corinth safe in the days following the massacre of 26 children and adults at an elementary school in Connecticut. “We are all deeply saddened by the tragedy that took place at that school,” said Corinth School District Superintendent Lee Childress. “We are working to keep in place any and
all measures to try to keep our children as safe as possible.” Corinth Elementary School currently has a system in place in which all exterior doors are controlled from inside the building. As a result of the system, all visitors to the school must enter through the principal’s office. Discussion on improving the security at the district’s other schools were ongoing long before Friday’s shooting. The city school board has planned for
the door and window renovation at Corinth High School to also include the installation of a similar system to the one in place at the elementary school. “We’ve discussed safety and will probably look in the near future to any kind of safety auditing to make sure the district is doing all we can to make our students safe,” Childress said. “And we’ve decided we want the same system in place at the middle school.” School administrators and
staff are trying to be proactive, Childress said, and are in the process of looking at crisis management plans and focusing on emergency preparations. “The Corinth Police Department has done training in the past with our staff on how to handle situations, and we’ve worked with them in terms of measures that can be taken in terms of an event like that,” said Childress.
Basket fund tops $11,000 Corinth police seize drugs, make arrests The spirit of giving is alive and well in the Crossroads area as donations continue to arrive daily for the 17th annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian 2012 Christmas Basket Fund. The civic club and newspaper have set a $20,000 community fundraising goal this year so 1,000 food baskets could be given away to local families Saturday at the Crossroads Arena. The event was a huge success this year with plenty of need. The total now stands at $11,230, meaning just $8,770 needs to be raised from the community as there will be Please see BASKET | 2A
High school teacher earns top honor BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
A national organization tasked with promoting the study and love of American history has named an Alcorn Central High School teacher the best in the state. Connie Lambert is the winner of the 2012 Mississippi Teacher of the Year Award from the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. Gilder Lehrman annually awards teachers across the country for excellence in history education. Each year the organization recognizes one teacher in each state and an overall national winner. Lambert said she was honored to receive the award during a reception at the Alcorn School District office. How did she feel when she learned about winning the award? “I was shocked,” she said. “I know the competition is stiff.” Judges from the Gilder Lehrman Institute outlined their reasons for choosing Lambert in a short statement. “Mrs. Lambert’s lesson plans show strong insights Please see AWARD | 2A

After struggle, officers find cash, cocaine, pot, pills BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Police Department seized a substantial amount of drugs and cash and arrested two people early Friday while serving misdemeanor warrants at an Allen Street residence. Michael Dewayne Turner, 27, and Keyanna Jones, 21, are both charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. Bond was set at $10,000 for Jones and $25,000 for Turner, who was on probation with the Mississippi Department of Corrections for a charge out of Tippah County. Detective Capt. Ralph Dance said officers Brad Bishop and Ken Walker went to 1302 Allen Street to serve four misdemeanor warrants on Turner during the early a.m. hours. Turner answered the door and, after seeing the officers, retreated back into the apartment. Officers followed and a struggle occurred. At some point, the suspect threw a bag containing cocaine onto the floor. Jones told the officers that Turner does not live at the residence and gave consent to search. Dance said officers found a large amount of powder cocaine, a large amount of crack cocaine, a bag of marijuana, several bottles of prescription medication with codeine not prescribed to the subjects, and Xanax and hydrocodone pills. Officers also seized a .38-caliber pistol and $954 from Turner. “Officers Walker and Bishop did an outstanding job on this
arrest,” said Dance. “It took a lot of dope off the streets.” He estimated the drugs have a street value of $4,000 to $5,000. ■ In a separate case, the police department charged three people who were linked to the burglary of a Third Street residence. Daniel Caldwell, 37, of Polk Street, and Thomas Lee Frederick, 30, of County Road 700, are each charged with burglary of a dwelling. Kristie Dawn Morris, 25, of Highway 226, Savannah, Tenn., is charged with accessory after the fact. Dance said it appears Morris drove the two men to a Third Street residence where they broke into the house, stealing $1,500, jewelry, a laptop computer and power tools. Some of the items were recovered at a county residence. A neighbor recalled seeing a silver Chevrolet Trailblazer parked in the driveway of the residence on Dec. 3, the date of the burglary, with a female driver. That information led to the suspects. Bond was set at $5,000 for Caldwell and Frederick and $4,500 for Morris. ■ Carrie Marie Matthews, 29, of Jefferson Street, Booneville, has been charged with felony shoplifting. Dance said she is accused of concealing $523 of items in her purse at a Corinth clothing shop on Dec. 9. She was detained at the store and arrested. Dance said Matthews has other shoplifting cases pending and

Rotary volunteers spread cheer, deliver food BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
The Crossroads Arena was a busy place on Saturday morning — the day the Corinth Rotary Club gave 1,000 food baskets to needy families. Two main groups arrived at the arena well before 8 a.m. The first was made up of the folks who were there to pick up a basket of food that would give their families a happier holiday season. The others on the scene were volunteers who showed up to help distribute that food to
those who needed it. Both groups consisted of Alcorn County residents of all ages — black, white and hispanic. Many of the volunteers were high school students. The Alcorn Central High School Beta Club sent more than 20 to lend a hand. For some of the students, it is an annual tradition. It was the first time to volunteer for 17-year-old Ashley Baker, who arrived at the arena at 7 a.m. to help tend to the desk where basket recipients would get their tickets. How did she feel about volunteering?

“I like it a lot,” Ashley said. “You get to meet some good people and help people out.” Down on the arena floor, a group of eight more ACHS students helped load a van that would deliver food baskets across the community. One of them was 11th grader Harley Hutson. “Our Beta Club sponsors — Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Whittemore — always try to help,” she said. “They send students to the box assembly and to give out boxes. We had more than
20 Thursday night at the box assembly.” Outside the arena, more volunteers helped load the food boxes into recipients’ cars. After getting a ticket from the volunteers by the arena box office, basket recipients walked back outside, got in their cars and drove down the hill to the west side of the arena. There, a line of volunteers loaded the food into their cars. Among the loaders were Please see ROTARY | 3A

into American history and bring considerable imagination into presenting these insights to her classes,” the judges wrote. “Moreover, her consistent and strong use of primary sources ensures that students are getting both an accurate and vivid account of history.” Lambert earned her bachelors and masters of education degrees from Mississippi State University. She has taught at Alcorn Central for 37 years, beginning with eight years as a social studies and business instructor. After spending a year at home with her two boys, Lambert was asked to return to ACHS to assist with the
special education program for one year. That one year has turned into 30. She began teaching special education classes in 1983, which led to her involvement in developing the Occupational Diploma Program adopted by the state in 2000. Lambert has been a member of the Advisory Board for the Federal Reserve Bank (Memphis) since 2006 and a mentor for the Mississippi Council on Economic Education since 2008. These organizations have allowed her to evaluate curriculum materials and to conduct workshops for other teachers in Mississippi and Tennessee. Lambert has been chosen to attend such selective conferences as the 2009 and 2010 Belfer Conferences at the U.S. Holocaust Museum and the 2012 U.S. Supreme Court Institute. She has received five Best Practices Awards from the Mississippi Council on
Economic Education and has been named the Senator Thad Cochran High School Teacher of the Year twice. In 2011, she was named the GATE (Global Association of Teachers of Economics) National High School Teacher of the Year. As the winner of the Gilder Lehrman award, Lambert will receive an extensive archive of books and resources to aid in the teaching of history, including a collection of facsimile documents from American history, posters, DVDs and a selection of books covering several eras of American history. Alcorn Schools Superintendent Gina Rogers Smith praised Lambert during the reception. “The Alcorn School District is extremely pleased with this honor that Mrs. Connie Lambert has received,” said Smith. “She is truly an asset to the Alcorn School District and its students.”
REACTION CONTINUED FROM 1A
The district continues to worth with its staff and implement features in an effort to ensure safety. Many of these things can’t be discussed publicly, noted Childress. The Alcorn School District has also worked with city and county law enforcement officers to develop a system of crisis management to deal with emergencies such as school shootings. “We’re going to revisit that training with our staff,” said Alcorn Schools Superintendent Gina Rogers Smith. “In the event that something like that happens — and we hope and pray it never does — we have plans in place. We will revisit and make sure everyone is aware of these plans, and make sure they stay calm and think through the process of providing a safe environment for our students.” The Alcorn Schools office has sent out emails to all schools in the district reminding principals to
be attentive and alert during this time of heightened emotions. Smith said her heart goes out to the community in Connecticut where the shooting occurred and she prays they will be able to find peace and answers — and that wisdom will be given to school administrators to have more preventative measures in place. Speaking of the Connecticut school’s faculty and staff — including its principal — who were killed trying to protect their students, Smith’s voice became shaky with emotion. “That faculty and staff, it’s unreal how they gave their lives to protect those kids,” she said. “Education is a calling, and with your students, you love those children when you’re with them like they’re your own. That parental instinct is going to kick in. You can’t help it — it’s part of it.” Smith said she was thankful for people who are willing to put themselves in harm’s way for America’s students.

Brantley Grady, Jackson Bailey and Dustin Albarracin, members of Boy Scouts Pack 27, based at First Presbyterian Church. There was a lot of work involved in loading the cars, Jackson said. They worked steadily, loading the boxes of food and boxes full of paper towels donated by Kimberly Clark, a longtime contributor to the effort. The Scouts did their job with spirit. One hollered to his pals: “Hey! You forgot to say, ‘Merry Christmas.’” Corinth Rotary Club member Ronnie Sleeper said the local Rotary is grateful to all of the area high schools that sent students to participate as well as the Boy Scouts groups and church youth
groups. “We’ve had just a ton of support from students, and there is no way we could do it without them,” Sleeper said. “What’s rewarding here is that we’ve had more student help today than any time in the last 15 years — and this is a time of great need. It’s heartening to me to see the kids want to help and be so enthusiastic about doing stuff.” Other volunteers came from Kimberly Clark, including Distribution Leader Bill Kramer (who helped load cars) and Mill Manager Grover Hardin (who directed traffic). Hardin said the Christmas Basket Giveaway is the best project he has ever been involved in. “Being part of Kimberly Clark and the community, this is something we’ll always support. We’ll never

I’m glad to be part of the Rotary Club and doing this.” Hardin stopped talking to check a ticket and wave another car through to the loading area. For almost an hour, the line of cars coming to pick up food was steady, bumper to bumper for much of the time. “This makes my year every year,” he said. (The Christmas Basket Giveaway is always done on faith. The Rotary Club purchases the food, and community donations are given to meet the cost. At $20,000, the 2012 community goal is the biggest yet.

Our View
‘Winter Wonderland’ becomes great tradition Magnolia Regional Health Center presented the first gift of the Christmas season recently when the health care facility staged its wonderful “Winter Wonderland” event at the Crossroads Arena. Thousands attended this year in what has turned into a very much anticipated holiday tradition for Crossroads area families. Santa Claus and his many elves were on hand to entertain the young crowd. Even Rudolph made the trip to have his photo taken with children. Treats were cooked up in Mrs. Claus’ Kitchen, there were holiday crafts in Santa’s Workshop, letters were sent to Santa at the North Pole Mailroom, while the young and young at heart could take a ride on the Santa Express train. Workers at the event all volunteered their time on Saturday. MRHC started “Winter Wonderland” in 2005 to provide a holiday experience for children and families who might not be able to participate in festivities due to financial reasons. Although the event was free, individuals were asked to bring either a non-perishable food item or a donation to the AMEN Food Pantry. Thousands of food items were collected. A silent auction of Christmas trees, holiday wreaths and decor donated by local businesses and professionals was held to benefit the Magnolia Foundation. We thank MRHC and its many great employee volunteers for such a successful event. Not only is it a worthwhile tradition in which to participate, but the AMEN Food Pantry and Magnolia Foundation received some significant contributions as well. Daily Corinthian
Prayer for today Gracious Lord, even when we ar aware of life’s struggles during the holidays, may we find that they are indeed holy days. Let nothing distract us from the joy that the Incarnation brings. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
A verse to share
Taking a dive over social issues cliff Who would have guessed at the turn of this century — a mere 12 years ago — that, today, we as a nation would have arrived at a point where a majority of citizens would favor the legalization of marijuana and the acceptance of same-sex marriage as legitimate? What are we to make of this wave of liberal attitudes? It seems the world around us is changing in many other ways as well. Virtually every news story heralding the implementation of new laws legalizing the use of marijuana and of same-sex marriages in the State of Washington cited one or more of the many public opinion polls addressing these issues. These national polls revealed that far from being a renegade state or outlier as a supporter of these social issues, Washington staters were, in fact, riding the crest of a wave of popularity when they voted for these changes in state law in the November elections. Back to the question: What are we to make of this wave of liberal attitudes? Most polls and the pundits who comment on them seem to agree that there is a definite generational characteristic to the tilt detected in the outcomes of the respective polls. One of the most detailed of these recent studies was conducted by the highly reputable

Quinnipiac University Poll from Nov. 28-Dec. 3. When asked about their support Marty of same-sex Wiseman marriage for the first time, Stennis Institute those in favor of allowing such unions led 48 percent to 46 percent. Democrats supported the legalization of same-sex marriage at a 65 percent rate. On the other hand, 73 percent of Republican respondents were opposed. The younger the respondent the more likely they were to support same-sex marriage. This is a pattern that is repeated in all cases. Regarding legalization of marijuana, the results were strikingly similar as those for gay marriage. A majority, 51 percent, of all citizens surveyed supported the legalization of marijuana. Again, Democratic support was at the 58 percent level, while Republicans opposed legalization of marijuana by a robust 66 percent of those interviewed. Also, mirroring opinions on same-sex marriage the 18-29 age group supported marijuana legalization by an eye-opening 67 percent. In addition, the age 30-44 category supported legalization of pot at a 58 percent rate.
With regard to immigration reform, 57 percent of all people questioned said that illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay and be allowed to eventually apply for full citizenship. Two factors become fairly clearly evident from these and similar data from other polls. The older generation of citizens, i.e. those age 64 and above, find themselves joined by the Republican Party at the short end of the stick of the polling numbers on these watershed social issues. Leading conservative pundit George Will, speaking on ABC’s This Week news commentary program stated it most succinctly. Speaking with regard to the growing support by the public for the legalization of gay marriage Will stated, “Quite literally, the opposition to gay marriage is dying. It’s old people.” Elsewhere, a headline in the widely read online news service The Daily Beast proclaimed, “With Pot as With Gay Marriage, Familiarity Breeds Tolerance.” Most are familiar with the decidedly cynical old saying, “For change to occur we’re going to need a few more funerals.” Indeed, this may be the attitude possessed toward these issues by those in the younger age categories. There seems to be little doubt that the impetus for change is afoot
at the level of those just acquiring the power of the ballot box. In addition to the already prominent issues related to demographics of ethnic groups, age and gender must be added to the mix. With the Republican base being dominated by the ideas of older, white voters and with those ideas being translated into support at the ballot box, Republicans are faced with decisions on how to attract numbers of voters who may be proponents of social positions that have traditionally been quite repugnant to the GOP. For example, it seems somewhat predictable at this point that Republican policymakers will attempt to get the jump on the Democrats by supporting broad reforms in immigration laws that will indeed contain a path to citizenship. As 2013 dawns on the other side of the fiscal cliff the battle over social issues will come clearly into view. The battle for supremacy in the 2014 “off year” elections has already begun, and both sides are counting votes. (Daily Corinthian columnist Dr. W.

Give Christmas books, avoid shopping ‘mauls’ During the holidays, a shopping mall can be more like a shopping maul. One way to avoid that scene is to give books as Christmas gifts, since books can be bought on-line, painlessly. A book that fits in with the holiday spirit is “No, They Can’t!” by TV show host John Stossel. It is written with a light touch, but gets across some pretty heavy stuff about economics. The title is a take-off on Obama’s old slogan, “Yes, we can!” It is the first book I have read that asks a question about electric cars that should have been asked long ago: How much pollution do they cause? Electric car enthusiasts may say, “None.” But the electricity that runs these cars has to be generated somewhere, and much of that electricity is generated by burning coal. Similar common sense analysis punctures many other puffed-up ideas, on subjects ranging from health care to education to government bailouts of failing businesses. “No, they Can’t!” is a book that makes

what used to be called “the dismal science” of economics more lively, and even humorous, as it reveals what nonsense so much of the lofty rhetoric
of our time is. Anyone who wants an honest look at the hard facts about racial preferences in admissions to colleges and universities will find it — perhaps for the first time — in a book titled “Mismatch” by Richard Sanders and Stuart Taylor Jr. The central concern of “Mismatch” is how racial preferences harm blacks and other minorities. Black students with all the qualifications for success can be turned into failures by being admitted to institutions geared to students with higher qualifications than theirs. “Mismatch” thoroughly analyses the effects of racial preferences in numerous contexts, showing how what is called “affirmative ac-
tion” has very negative consequence for its supposed beneficiaries. For example, the data strongly suggest that there are fewer black lawyers when there are racial preferences in admissions to law schools. Racial preferences put more minority students on campus, but in ways that reduce the number who graduate. Conversely, when racial preferences were banned in the University of California system, the number of black students who graduated increased substantially, as did their grade point averages. The careful analysis of documented facts makes “Mismatch” a rare and valuable book for people who want to think. The time is long overdue to discuss racial issues in general in plain, honest words. A new book that does that is titled “Mugged: Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama” by Ann Coulter. In this book, readers will learn many truths for the first time, unfiltered by the mainstream media. For example, they will belatedly learn the

truth about how an ex-con and hoodlum was turned into a sympathetic victim by the clever editing of the Rodney King videotape. My own new book this year is an expanded and much revised edition of “Intellectuals and Society.” Among its new features is a debunking of murky catch phrases like “social justice” and “tax cuts for the rich” that have spread so much confusion and mischief. Four new chapters have also been added on intellectuals and race. Among the things they reveal is how the political left promoted racism on both sides of the Atlantic during the early decades of the 20th century, even though today the left has swung to the other end of the spectrum and now claim to find racism everywhere in other people. Merry Christmas — if we are still allowed to say that. (Daily Corinthian columnnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305.

Liquor ordinance on board agenda Residents honored for service to MDES BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen is set to begin discussion of an ordinance establishing the legal sale of alcoholic beverages in a special meeting on Monday. The session is set for 3 p.m. at City Hall. It is the only item on the special meeting agenda. The United Drys chairman requested to be present during such discussions and has been notified of Monday’s meeting. City Clerk Vickie Roach anticipates the board will take a look at the ordinances of some other wet cities as aldermen put together Corinth’s
ordinance. She said the law does not require the board to act within any time frame. Aldermen have the authority to disallow package stores and permit only by the drink sales in restaurants. The Board of Aldermen will also meet in regular session at 5 p.m. Tuesday. Items on the regular meeting agenda are: ■ Public hearing on Bonds zoning change ■ Public hearing on property cleanup at the Burns property on Polk Street, 1115 Douglas Street (Rhoades), Potts property at corner of Mississippi and Violet (in block 6 of the Speed-
way Addition), 408 Violet Street (Harris), 514 Lilly Street (Dean), 1415 Foote Street (Crider), 1411 Foote Street (Van) ■ Reports of the department heads ■ Accept Dec. 11 special election result ■ Application for Alliance agreement ■ Request for drainage easement near intersection of Harper and Proper ■ Request from Alcorn County for funds under Alliance agreement ■ Off-premises beer license request from Raceway ■ Plumbing and electrician licenses applications from Nathaniel Nooner ■ Minutes from Nov. 6 meeting.

Mom gives birth during zoo visit Associated Press
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — An upstate New York zoo got a surprise visit from the stork. A woman gave birth on a wildlife path at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in Syracuse on Friday, de-
livering her baby girl with the help of zookeepers not far from the bear exhibit. Zoo educator Liz Schmidt said that she rushed over from the reindeer pen to find the 21-year-old woman pushing out the baby.
Zoo workers arrived with blankets to keep mom and baby warm. An ambulance soon arrived to take the newborn to a hospital. Zoo Director Ted Fox says the zoo will send a gift to the family.
Community, nation mourn as police look for answers BY JOHN CHRISTOFFERSEN AND MATT APUZZO Associated Press
NEWTOWN, Conn. — Investigators tried to figure out what led a bright but painfully awkward 20-year-old to slaughter 26 children and adults at a Connecticut elementary school, while townspeople sadly took down some of their Christmas decorations and struggled Saturday with how to go on. The tragedy brought forth soul-searching and grief around the globe. Families as far away as Puerto Rico began to plan funerals for victims who still had their baby teeth, world leaders extended condolences, and vigils were held around the U.S. Relatives of the shooter, whose victims included his mother, were at a loss for words. “The whole family is traumatized by this event,” said a police official who knows the family. A family statement read: “We reach out to the community of Newtown and express our heartfelt sorrow for this incomprehensible and profound loss of innocence.” Amid the sorrow, stories of heroism emerged, including an account of the Sandy Hook Elementary School principal and the school psychologist who lost their lives rushing toward the gunman, Adam Lanza, in an attempt to stop him. Police shed no light on what triggered the second-deadliest school shooting in U.S. history, though state police Lt. Paul Vance said investigators had found “very good evidence ... that our investigators will be able

Kathy Murdy and her husband, Rich Murdy, react Saturday as they look at the list of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Sandy Hook village of Newtown, Conn. The victims of the shooting were shot multiple times by semiautomatic rifle, according to Connecticut Chief Medical Examiner Dr. H. Wayne Carver. to use in painting the complete picture, the how and, more importantly, the why.” He would not elaborate. However, another law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said investigators have found no note or manifesto from Lanza of the sort they have come to expect after murderous rampages such as the Virginia Tech bloodbath in 2007 that left 33 people dead. The mystery deepened as Newtown education officials said they had found no link between Lanza’s mother and the school, contrary to news reports that said she was a teacher there. Investigators said they believe Adam Lanza attended Sandy Hook Elementary many years ago, but they had no explanation for why he went there on Friday. Lanza shot to death his mother, Nancy Lanza, at the home they shared, then drove to the school in
her car with at least three of her guns, forced his way inside and opened fire in two classrooms, authorities said. Within minutes, he killed 20 children, six adults and himself. On Saturday, Chief Medical Examiner Dr. H. Wayne Carver said all the victims at the school were shot with a rifle, at least some of them up close, and all of them were apparently shot more than once. All six adults killed at the school were women. Of the 20 children, eight were boys and 12 were girls. All the children were 6 or 7 years old. The tragedy plunged Newtown into mourning and added the picturesque New England community of handsome colonial homes, red-brick sidewalks and 27,000 people to the grim map of towns where mass shootings in recent years have periodically reignited the national debate over gun control but led to little change.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is accepting applications to help producers improve water quality, build healthier soil, improve grazing and forest lands and achieve other environmental benefits. NRCS has directed more millions of dollars in financial assistance for fiscal 2013 to help Mississippi producers implement conservation practices through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). Interested
producers should visit their local NRCS service center for information on EQIP sign-up periods. “The Environmental Quality Incentives Program offers farmers, ranchers and forestland managers a variety of options to conserve natural resources while boosting production on their lands,� State Conservationist Homer Wilkes said. “This conservation investment helps improve environmental health and the economy of Mississippi rural communities.� EQIP provides financial assistance for a variety of
conservation activities, such as grade stabilization structures, rotational grazing systems and much more. The deadline for the next signup period in Mississippi is January 18, 2013. Applications for the second signup period are due April 19, 2013. To participate in EQIP, an applicant must be an individual, entity or joint operation that meets EQIP eligibility criteria. Applicants can sign up at their local NRCS service center. For more information about EQIP or other technical or financial as-

This huge “Ponderosa� lemon came from Sandy Creason Mitchell’s lemon tree in her backyard in Corinth. This is the third year she has grown this variety of large lemons. She got her lemon tree plant, along with a key lime tree and navel orange tree plant, from her brother Mike who lives in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. So far this year, the plants have grown a dozen lemons and 150 key limes. She rolls the plants out onto her porch in the summer and in the cold weather, cuts the tops out and brings them into her sunroom. Mitchell commented, “We grow ‘em big in Mississippi for our sweet tea!�

BIGGERSVILLE -— In the tournament finale, the home team ended on a win as the Biggersville Lions defeated the New Albany Bulldogs 101-81 in the Biggersville Christmas Classic. The all-day tournament played host to thirteen Mississippi high school teams, ranging from Division 1A host Biggersville to Division 6A dominators Desoto Central. Alcorn Central, Biggersville and Corinth each participated in the tournament. The Corinth Warriors edged out Desoto Central 69-
63, while the Golden Bears dropped their game against Marshall Academy 75-65. New Albany trailed for the first half, eventually cutting the Lions lead to one on three separate occasions during the third quarter. Rebounds, led by Marquis Watson with 11, allowed the Lions to control possession in the final minutes to build up a steady lead as the game went into the fourth quarter. Daniel Simmons led Biggersville with 24 points, followed by Watson with 21. Jaylon Gaines and Emmanuel Simmons each posted double digits with 18 and 12 points.
Gaines recorded 11 assists during the match, while the Lions shot 50-percent from the 3-point and free-throw lines. Biggersville will see action again on Tuesday as they host Blue Mountain in a Division 1-1A match. The girls game will begin at 6 p.m. with the boys game to follow.

Arizona pulls out slim win over Florida BY JOHN MARSHALL The Associated Press
TUCSON, Ariz. — Mark Lyons hit a contested layup with 7 seconds left and No. 8 Arizona rallied from a six-point deficit in the final minute to pull out an improbable 65-64 win over No. 5 Florida on Saturday night. Arizona (8-0) struggled with Florida’s mix of zone and man defenses, falling behind by 11 in the second half before rallying late. The Wildcats used their press to force consecutive turnovers on inbounds plays, pulling within 64-63 after Brandon Ashley hit one of two free throws. Arizona fouled Kenny Boynton, who missed the front end of a 1-and-1, then raced to the other end for Lyons’ driving shot. Florida (7-1) botched its final possession, fumbling the ball away before taking a wild 3-pointer. Solomon Hill had 18 points, Nick Johnson added 15 and Lyons 14 to give Arizona its best start since opening the 1998-99 season with eight straight wins. Mike Rosario led Florida with 16 points and Erik Murphy added 15. The Gators and Wildcats cruised through their early schedules to set up the McKale Center’s first matchup between top 10 teams since 2004. Florida came to the desert with a stifling defense — second nationally at 48.3 points per game — and the nation’s third-widest margin of victory, winning by an average of 25.3 points. The Gators have a talented frontline, experienced guards and good balance. Florida turned its first true road game of the season into a walkover, holding Florida State to its lowest point total ever at the Tucker Center in a 72-47 win on Dec. 5. Arizona also has a talented frontcourt and steady guards, though is a bit more offensively oriented, averaging nearly 80 points while winning by 20 a game. The Wildcats rely on three heralded freshmen — Kaleb Tarczewski, Ashley and Grant Jerrett — but also have a core of veteran players coach Sean Miller can turn to when things get tight. The older guys came through down the stretch in a win over Southern Miss on Dec. 4 and again last Saturday, when Lyons, a graduate transfer from Xavier, scored 20 points in a 6654 road win over Clemson. Putting the Gators and Wildcats together on the same court set up one of college basketball’s best nonconference games of the season, one that had the McKale Center rocking despite the late start and school out for the semester.

Loyola-Chicago tops Mississippi State The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Devon Turk scored a career-high 21 points as Loyola of Chicago beat Mississippi State 59-51 Saturday night. Christian Thomas added 16 points for the Ramblers (73), who have won five of their last six games and equaled their win total from last season. Fred Thomas had 14 points for Mississippi State (3-6), which shot just 37.5 percent from the field. Loyola closed the first half with a 17-3 run to take a 34-20 halftime lead, and Mississippi State never seriously threatened again. The Ramblers shot 8 of 18 from
3-point range and 41 percent from the field. The game marked the first meeting between the teams since they played a historic game in the 1963 NCAA tournament that helped change race relations on the basketball court. The all-white Bulldogs had to sneak out of Mississippi to avoid an injunction in order to play Loyola, which had four African-American starters, in the NCAA Regional in East Lansing, Mich. Mississippi State had turned down invitations to play in previous NCAA tournaments because of an unwritten Mississippi law that forbade teams to play inte-
grated opponents. Players from the 1963 teams were honored at halftime Saturday. Turk, a freshman, scored 18 of his game-high 21 points in the first half, when Loyola shot 46 percent from the field. He eclipsed his previous high of 19 points against Furman on Dec. 1. The Bulldogs pulled within nine after Gavin Ware’s dunk with 15:16 remaining, but Loyola pushed it back to double digits and led 53-36 on Thomas’ three-point play with 7:34 remaining. Turk hit his fifth 3-pointer with 6:36 left to extend the lead to 56-38. Loyola took its first lead, 19-
17, on Turk’s two free throws with 5:52 left before halftime. The Ramblers then held Mississippi State scoreless until 59 seconds remained before halftime, when Thomas hit a 3-pointer, cutting Loyola’s lead to 34-20. The Bulldogs shot 29 percent and committed nine turnovers in the first half. In 1963, Mississippi State coach Babe McCarthy and other school leaders helped facilitate a secret trip to East Lansing to allow the SEC champion a chance to play Loyola. Mississippi State dodged an injunction that would have prohibited the team from leaving the state.
Denson leads Auburn to win over Furman The Associated Press
AUBURN, Ala. — Chris Denson scored 17 points and grabbed six rebounds and freshman Jordan Price added 14 points to lead Auburn to a 64-50 win against Furman on Saturday night. It was the first time Auburn (4-5) has won consecutive games this season after also beating Grambling 92-42 on Dec. 11. Furman fell to 3-6. Denson scored 12 of his
points in the first half as the Tigers took a 35-20 lead. Senior guard and Southeastern Conference-leading scorer Frankie Sullivan had seven points in the first half and finished with 11 points. Price was 4 for 4 on 3-pointers and is 8 for 8 from behind the arc in his last two games. Auburn transfer center Asauhn Dixon-Tatum, playing extended minutes with starting center Rob Chubb
in foul trouble, had a careerhigh nine rebounds with six points. Each of Dixon-Tatum’s rebounds came in the first half.

‘Twas a chaotic week before Christmas, when all through the house ....’ BY RYLAND BRUHWILER Columnist
I was busy sweeping up a mess one of my plants had made at the far end of the house when I got a whiff of something burning. Raised my head like a dog to sniff the air more thoroughly and decided I’d better check this out. Just heading toward the kitchen when an alarm began its loud, obnoxious bleeping. Broke into a run, wondering which appliance I could possibly have left on — then realized that those bleeps weren’t coming from the kitchen alarm but from the basement. So were billows of smoke that were rapidly filling the whole house. Our “basement” isn’t really a basement, but, built into the side of the hill and with its concrete floor, it feels like one. Turns out
John had started a fire in the big woodstove down there because we had an elderly friend coming for dinner that evening and he wanted the house to be decently warm. Some months ago, he’d done the usual chimney sweeping with the long brush, but we hadn’t yet used that stove this fall. A critter — most likely a bird — had gotten in and hadn’t been able to get out. And for us. It was blocking the grate through which the smoke was supposed to rise. So there we were, scrambling to get rid of a brightly blazing fire. John’s first impulse was to douse it with water. I said that’d end up an awful mess to be cleaned out. Isn’t there something metal we can put those logs into? He ran for an old metal garbage can — happily empty — while I hotfooted it upstairs for
the tongs leaning next to the other woodstove in the study. He fished the flaming logs up one by one and dropped them in the can, and I hauled them out to the campfire pit. Got back to find him peering into the stove. The little dried carcass inside the flue had just ignited from the heat and was burning energetically. Within minutes, it was history, the chimney drawing air just fine. John got to start a brand new fire all over again while I raced upstairs and went from room to room, opening windows to let that nice, fresh, 28-degree air into the house, still reeking from the heavy smoke. And here I’d spent weeks washing all of our stored bedding, sheets and quilts, comforters and mattress covers so when our 18 houseguests arrive for

Christmas, they’d have nice, fresh bedding to lay their weary heads upon. Here’s hoping they won’t mind their pillows smelling like smoked hams. More or less, this is the way the whole week has gone. For instance, I stopped for coffee halfway home from Memphis after a long day spent at the doctor’s and interminable errands. Hopped back into the car, set my cup into the holder, turned the key. The dashboard lights flickered once, went out, and there I sat in a parking lot of a convenience store in a dead car with night coming on. Then last Monday, Cricker the Lab and Saber the Doberman went AWOL. Disappeared into the dusk as they were returning from the barn with John and did not show up for dinner. Which
has happened before. But only Saber had returned by morning. Uh oh. This looked bad. Labradors do not skip breakfast. So we set out to drive the roads, looking for a crippled dog or broken body sprawled across the tarmac or tossed into a ditch. No Cricker. Home again, very sad, trying not to run those images through our minds. Savage dogs. Irate hunters. Vicious traps ... And on a minor scale, there was the Slide Show fiasco. With all of our 11 grandchildren here this year, I decided to dig our boxes of old slides out of the storage room. We haven’t looked at those things — hundreds of them — in almost 30 years, partly because our old slide projector died a long time ago. But a friend passed hers on to us when she moved
— and I know the grandkids will get a kick out of seeing their dads as rollypoly babies and gangling teens. So I talked John into working through them with me, and we were having a ball all by ourselves — when the slide projector went kerfluie. Kept on clicking, but the revolving tray refused to budge. There went Slide Show Night. But on the plus side? The house did not burn down. The car and I eventually, finally made it home. So did a sheepish Cricker, wagging his tail behind him. And I actually fixed that slide projector. When all else fails, read directions ... (Daily Corinthian columnist Ryland Bruhwiler lives on a farm in McNairy County, Tenn.

‘Playing for Keeps’ a predictable rom-com Alcohol not a cure for cold weather Terry Burns’ movie ratings:
Playing For Keeps, PG-13. **, Gerard Butler, Jessica Biel, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Uma Thurman, Noah Lomax, Judy G r e e r , Dennis Quaid, I q b a l Theba; Electric Pictures; Terry Director Burns Gabriele Maccina; Movie Critic length — 106 minutes In the movie “Playing for Keeps,” George Dryer (Gerard Butler) was at one time a great soccer player. He has a beautiful ex-wife, Stacie (Jessica Biel) and a terrific son, Carl (Noah Lomax). He is, however, a womanizer who has spent all of his money on decadence and debauchery, probably the
reasons his wife divorced him. After a period of time enjoying his worldly pleasures, George moves to Virginia where his exwife and young son live. He arrives at a soccer game where Carl is practicing soccer. He notices what a fiasco the coach (Sean O'Bryan) is doing at his job. Instead of coaching, he talks on his cell phone, which is just as well as it becomes obvious he doesn't know how to coach soccer. George steps in and decides to help the young soccer players. Almost immediately, the fans decide George should be the head coach. He accepts and the whole team begins learning the game. However, George has a dark side. He lived a wild life and is still living it. Several soccer moms, Denise (Catherine

These foxy ladies begin their over the top and aggressive move toward their target. In the meanwhile, George wants to get back with Stacie who is engaged and plans to marry soon. “Playing for Keeps” is not totally boring, but is slow and predicable. Most romantic comedies tend to turn out the same, only the venue is different. Still, it is a good
date movie and has a few laughs. (Daily Corinthian columnist Terry Burns is technology coordinator for the McNairy County School System.

Some who play or work in the cold believe a sip of alcohol will help keep them warm. But the Tennessee Department of Health is reminding people that drinking alcohol in any quantity can actually expose a person to greater risk of hypothermia, the potentially fatal condition of abnormally low core body temperature. “When a person drinks alcohol, blood flow to the skin increases, producing a feeling of temporary warmth,” said TDH Chief Medical Officer David Reagan, MD. “That’s dangerous because the body’s normal reaction to cold is to move blood in the opposite direction, from the skin to our body core, to protect vital organs. The
increased blood in the skin after drinking alcohol causes our bodies to lose heat more rapidly, increasing the possibility of life-threatening hypothermia.” The early symptoms of hypothermia - being confused, sleepy, apathetic, delirious or clumsy - can be mistaken for having consumed too much alcohol. Some people may not recognize what is happening and may not be able to think clearly and seek warm shelter because these changes may occur slowly. Hypothermia occurs when the body’s core temperature falls below 95 degrees Fahrenheit, just less than the normal 98.6 degrees F for most people. As this happens, a person can slip into a coma.

Lt. Col. James S. Terral’s Kerr revolver and the Bible presented to him by his mother in 1854.
Sunday, December 16, 2012
Confederate Lt. Col. James S. Terral Jr., was a native of Mississippi who died after the Battle of Corinth in 1862.
Story of Confederate Lt. Col. James S. Terral Jr. BY TOM PARSON NPS Ranger
October 3, 1862, was a black day for the community of Corinth. Men were shot down by the hundreds in the neighborhoods we now call home. They came from the Mid-West, the Deep South, and many from our own Mississippi. One of these was a young father by the name of James Stephen Terral, Jr. James S. Terral Jr., was born in 1833 in Jasper County, just southwest of Meridian. His father was a planter who had the means to educate his four sons. James was diligent in his studies and when he was a man, he became a respected lawyer who was investing his own money in buying up acres of fertile land. In 1859, James married the beautiful Mary Kate Trotter and they had two children; a daughter, Ida Kate, who died in infancy, and a little boy, George Alexander, the light of his father’s eye. Sadly, Mary Kate passed away not long after George was born in January of ’62 and the baby went to live with his grandfather, James, Sr. The little tyke couldn’t stay with his own father; James, Jr. had been called away to war. In early 1862, James was granted authority to recruit a battalion of infantry consisting of seven companies from Central
Mississippi. The companies had great nick-names -- the Beauregard Defenders, the Covington Sharpshooters, and the Jones County Renovators. The battalion was assembled in May, 1862 in Quitman where James was elected Lieutenant Colonel, the commander of the outfit. The battalion remained in Quitman for a few months of training and was eventually brought north to Saltillo. They were assigned to Brig. Gen. Martin Green’s division of Price’s Army of the West. They made the long march to Iuka in September, but were not called on to fight in the battle. Their baptism of fire would occur on the outskirts of Corinth in the first week of October. The 7th Mississippi Battalion was in the thick of the fighting early in the morning of October 3rd when they charged the old Beauregard Line of earthworks. The Confederates easily pushed the outnumbered Federals back and took this first position with relatively few casualties. But the Yanks still had plenty of fight left in them and they threw up another defensive line at the south end of a large piece of open ground remembered as the White House Field. For over an hour, the ground shook under the constant hammering of an artillery duel between
over 20 cannon. At last, a charge was called and the Southerners came screaming out of the trees on the north end of the field. The fighting went back and forth. First one side had the advantage, then the other. At the front of his men was Col. Terral with a pistol in one hand and a sword in the other. The pistol was a beauty -- a .36 caliber, 5-shot, Kerr revolver which had been brought through the Union blockade from the London Armory in England. His blade was a fine-looking infantry officer’s sword with an intricate brass hilt and the letters C.S. cast into the design. James was not the type of commander to lead from behind. He was fully 20 yards in front of his men and urging them forward when a bullet dropped him into the Corinth dust. The records do not reveal where he was shot, but the wound was mortal. His commander, General Green, despaired, “I fear he will never again be able to take the field.” He spent the night in a field hospital and was alert enough to have someone take down his last will and testament. He entrusted his personal items to a friend and when the Confederate army retreated the next afternoon, the desperately wounded Col. Terral
was left behind to the care of the enemy. He lingered for several weeks and finally succumbed to his wound on Nov. 2, the day before his 29th birthday. His remains are somewhere here in Corinth in an unmarked grave. The personal items he left behind consisted of his sword, pistol and a Bible given to him by his mother, among other things. James Terral also left behind a number of letters, many of which were transcribed into what his descendants called his diary. Rather than a diary, it’s more of a journal in which he tells, through his letters home, his life as a soldier. His final letter, dated July 29th, 1862, was written as the 7th Mississippi was poised to leave Quitman and move north to the seat of war. The letter was written to his young son George, but as the boy was barely a toddler, he wrote it as if he were speaking to his grown son. They were words of advice that could do us all well to follow. “If it shall be my lot never to meet you again, you must try and prove yourself worthy [to] your dear good mother. You have a hard life before you. A world of sorrow & but little to comfort you. Above all things be scrupulously honest & honorable. Do all the good you can, & try to merit a home in heaven
where your good mother and sweet little sister are gone. Your life in this world will be but a span, even shall you live to old age. Your soul is immortal & after death must go into eternal happiness or woe. If you will keep ever in mind, the shortness of life, the certainty of death, & the wretchedness or happiness in store for you in eternity, you certainly will try to do your duty towards your fellow man & your God.” He followed with guidance about education and the necessity of choosing a profession that matched his talents. He even warned George about being too flashy. “You should never be obtrusive; for nothing is more disagreeable among cultivated gentlemen.” “Your constant friends & associates should be well chosen. Not with reference to wealth, or what they seem to be, but for their good principles & sense, & education. I have been very fortunate in this particular. It is true that I have been illy treated by those who professed to be friends. But up to the present time I have many good friends who would not desert me upon trivial grounds. I attribute this to the sincere devotion I have for them. Never desert a friend under [any] circumstance, he having once proven himself to be meritorious. If he errs
don’t cry out against him simply because everyone else does.” “I hope you will mature a good wise man, & am sure you will employ your time properly. If possible I shall come to see you soon. You are the world to me & I hope & trust we will meet your dear good mother & sweet sister in heaven.” The park is very fortunate to have received a generous donation. James’ personal belongings including his sword, pistol, Bible, several photos, a collection of Mary Kate’s sheet music, and the journal of his letters. They came to us through the generosity of Col. Terral’s great-granddaughter, Rita Jordan Jepsen, who was concerned his things would be sold off if they were not given a permanent home to preserve them. What a disaster if those items had ended up on EBay and scattered to the four winds. Soon, the Colonel’s things will be on display in the Interpretive Center, just a few hundred yards from where James Terral fell. Rest assured, Mrs. Jepsen, we will take very good care of them today and for future generations. (Tom Parson is a National Park Service ranger at the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center.)
Industrious woman lived through the Civil War years Sarah Malissa Bryant Mayo was born on Aug. 13, 1850 in Georgia; she died May 29, 1946 in Paden in Tishomingo County. For the majority of her life, she lived in Tishomingo County near the Burnt Mills Community. Family lore states Sarah Malissa Bryant’s mother left the Carolinas during the Trail of Tears and arrived by way of Rome, Ga. Her mother married a white man in Georgia by the name of Bryant. Sarah Malissa’s mother was a full-blooded Cherokee Indian. The Cherokees were very industrious. They learned the ways of the white man and grew fruit trees, pears, corn and other food to eat. They also hunted and raised cattle. Helen Jane Hill never knew the Indian name of her great-grandmother, Sarah Malissa’s mother. Sarah Malissa married William Joseph “Joe” Mayo, son of William James David Mayo and Nancy Thompson Mayo. Joe Mayo was born in Pickens County, Ala., on June 17, 1848; he died Feb. 25, 1927 in Tishomin-
go County. His father, William James David Mayo, was born Jan. 30, RaNae 1818 in Vaughn South Carolina, and Historically he died Speaking M a r c h 23, 1900 in Tishomingo County. He served in Company A, 26th Mississippi Infantry, C.S.A. His mother, Nancy Thompson Mayo, was born Nov. 7, 1823 and died Dec. 31, 1883. They were all buried at the Palestine Cemetery in Tishomingo County. Known children of Joe and Sarah Malissa Mayo were William Henry, Nancy Jane, Amanda and John Richard. William was born Dec. 22, 1876 in Tishomingo County ; he died in 1966. His wife’s name was Sarah Alice Floyd (18821937), and they married Sept. 28 1899. Nancy Jane was born Sept. 15 1874 in Tishomingo County; she died June 13, 1955 in Tishomingo County; married James Thomas South in
Tishomingo County in August 1895. Amanda Mayo, twin of John, was born Aug. 23, 1879 in Tishomingo County; died Oct. 22, 1896 with typhoid fever at about 16 years of age. She is buried in the Palestine Cemetery in Paden. John Richard Mayo, twin of Amanda, was born Aug. 23, 1879; he was eight days old when he died of typhoid fever on Aug. 31, 1879. He was buried in the Palestine Cemetery. Alta Bell South Hill was Sarah Malissa’s granddaughter. Alta was born May 14, 1896 in Tishomingo County. When Nancy Jane’s husband, James Thomas “Tom,” died with typhoid fever, Alta and her mother moved back into the home with her grandmother, Malissa. Alta was about 16 months old. In a few years, Nancy Jane married her deceased husband’s brother, William Marion “Will” South, whose wife had also died. At that time, Nancy Jane left her daughter, Alta, to be raised by her grandparents, Sarah Malissa and Joe Mayo. Alta lived with her grandparents
most of her life. Sarah Malissa and Joe Mayo made sure that their granddaughter, Alta, was well-educated. She went to summer Normal schools such as Blue Mountain College. These were all church schools. Alta taught school during the school year, including teaching at Paden Elementary in the early 1940s. Alta Bell South married James Martin Hill on June 28, 1930. He was born on May 30, 1886 in Wayne County, Tenn.; he died Feb. 9, 1970. Alta died June 9, 1991 in Tishomingo County. Their daughter, Helen Jane Hill, was born July 4, 1931 in Memphis, Tenn. When Helen was about two or three years old, the Hill family moved to Vicksburg. At about the same time, Helen’s great-grandmother, Sarah Malissa, became extremely ill; Alta and her daughter, Helen, moved back to Paden to care for Malissa. Alta was expecting her second child at the time and Marion Mayo Hill was born on April 10, 1933 at Paden. Alta and her two children lived
with Sarah Malissa Mayo until she died on May 29, 1946. Helen Jane Hill graduated from Paden High School in 1950 and her brother, Marion, graduated in 1951. At an early age, Sarah Malissa Bryant worked very hard learning how to card cotton and wool to make thread so she could weave it into blankets and personal clothing, including underwear, by a tremble loom. She kept the children enthralled with stories of her life. She told Helen Jane and Marion about the shells falling on the house during the Civil War. During the Civil War era, the town was called Burnt Mills; it was later named Paden after Alexander “Alex” Paden. Helen and Marion’s mother, Alta Bell South Hill, purchased the old home place in Paden while she worked at the Memphis Power & Light Company before her marriage. She had promised her grandfather, Joe Mayo, that she would take care of her grandmother if anything happened to Joe. Sarah Malissa Bryant Mayo was a hard worker until she had several
strokes and passed away at the age of 96. She was a tall lady who never gave up. She was a wonderful Christian woman. She loved to take walks with her great-granddaughter, Helen Jane. They even walked across a log over a creek to go to church before Malissa began having strokes. Her great-granddaughter, Helen, credits Malissa for teaching her about God and caring for others. Malissa was a Primitive Baptist (often called the foot-washing church). Malissa was very strict in her belief in God.

Season brings out the worst in some hunters As much as sportsmen look forward to the opening of deer season, many others in the non-hunting public dread it and are glad when it is over. Wildlife violations related to deer hunting is not anything unusual. Deer being shot from public roads, property damage caused by trespassers and head-lighting have long been problem areas for as long as deer have been roaming the landscape. That’s the reason I told myself earlier this year I wasn’t going to write about anything concerning deer hunting wildlife violations. It’s to be expected some infractions
will occur. Recently though, I’ve had a change of heart after hearing David t h r o u g h Green the grapevine sevOutdoors eral complaints. These offenses were not what I would call minor, nor are they typical, but I do find as troubling. People used to headlight or commit other unsavory acts in trying to bag a big buck, but the acts of crime I’ve heard about lately go far beyond that. It seems deer season brings out the worst in
some people and some will go to extremes. The stories I’ve heard through the rumor mill are not about folks taking big bucks illegally, but taking any deer by any means with no regard to seasonal bag limits or the laws set for that particular season. If it’s brown, it’s down. That must be what these folks are thinking. I’ve heard of people taking double and even triple the number of doe deer allowed to be taken in a season. But what’s even more troubling is how they are being taken. The stories include headlighting, hunting over bait in a lighted area at night
and using modern guns during archery season and the primitive weapons season. There’s no reason for committing such acts. Mississippi allows its hunters to legally harvest five doe deer per year, which is too many as far as I’m concerned. Three bucks can also be taken, which, if combined with a limit of doe deer, makes for a total of eight deer for the freezer. That should be enough for any family. If not, there are always hunters around looking to give a deer away. Some enjoy the hunting more than the meat. So, why in the world
would these people stoop to hunting in such unethical ways and shoot every deer that walks up? I don’t know the answer to that question. I can only speculate. But I do know this. These people are not legitimate hunters and they’re sure not sportsmen. A sportsman may make a mistake or two every now and then — usually unintentional — but they sure wouldn’t blatantly abuse wildlife game laws. These crimes are not only against wildlife but against sportsmen as well. Area deer herds are still in good shape and hunting appears bright for the future, but it won’t
be if these ridiculous and corrupt acts are allowed to go unchecked. If you see or hear concrete facts about wildlife violations being committed in your area, contact your local wildlife conservation officer or call 1-800-Be-Smart.

Estimating age of deer in the field part of deer management BY JAMES L. CUMMINGS Conservation Corner
Deer management is becoming more important to hunters with each hunting season. Some clubs have selective harvest strategies that are used to meet certain goals. The criteria can include gender, minimum antler measurements
and minimum age. In order for these strategies to work, hunters must be able to accurately judge the deer in the field. First we will discuss bucks. A 1.5-year-old buck sometimes resembles a doe with antlers. Their muscle characteristics are not as developed as older bucks so their features include a slender neck and
long, thin legs with thin hindquarters. Their average weight is 115 pounds. If the buck is closer to 2.5 years old, the hind quarters will be thicker and there will be some neck swelling present during the rut. Their average weight is 150 pounds. The average inside spread of the antlers is 12 inches. A 3.5-year-old buck
weighs approximately 170 pounds and the chest will appear deeper than the hindquarter area. There is noticeable swelling during the rut but a distinct junction between the neck and shoulders. The average inside spread of the antlers is 14 inches. At 4.5 years of age, a buck will have most of his adult body size and weight.
The waist will be as deep as the chest and the neck will be fully developed and blend into the shoulders. The average weight is 180 pounds with an average inside spread of 15 inches on the antlers. A buck with a sagging belly and neck and shoulder area that appears to form one big mass is usu-
ally between 5.5 and 7.5 years of age. His legs will appear shorter, his eyes will look squinty and muscle tone will begin to decrease and he will tend to have a swayed back and a potbelly. Remember, to accurately estimate the size and age of deer takes years of practice in the field.
and Sassafras tea to clean out their “innards.� She enjoyed eating possum and sweet potatoes.
Alfred and Albert South, two of Malissa’s nephews, would routinely catch possums for her. She
would put them in a cage for a week, feed them and then kill them by putting a wood mule trace across their neck to break their neck. After skinning and gutting the possums, Malissa baked them in an iron pot over a fire with sweet potatoes. She would keep the pot covered until it was necessary to pour the grease off. Malissa also cooked turnip greens mixed with pork salt. She liked cooking poke sallet, and she poured the water off twice before adding the poke sallet to the turnip greens. She then finished cooking the greens with some salt and bacon grease seasoning. According to Helen Jane’s memory, Sarah Malissa did not have teeth. She dipped snuff. Malissa had Helen Jane chewing sweet gum tooth brushes by the dozen. Malissa placed her little toothbrush into her snuff metal box. When she needed snuff, Helen Jane walked to Mr. P. T. Woodruff’s Store to purchase it. Mal-
issa insisted the snuff had dots on the bottom of the container or she would have to take the snuff back and exchange it. Back during that time (not now), the dots pertained to when the “hot� was made; however, Malissa thought it was the strength of the snuff. The snuff she preferred was in a dark brown bottle, possibly a Rooster or Garret snuff brand. Malissa and her greatgranddaughter, Helen Jane, were very close. Malissa was constantly telling her family about the Civil War, and Helen Jane remembers listening to her recollections as she bathed her after Malissa had suffered several strokes. Malissa was never totally disabled but she could not use her right arm and dragged her right leg. Her family helped her move around. About two weeks or more before Sarah Malissa died, she woke Helen Jane up and said that Jesus came to the foot of her bed and told her he was coming back for her in a short
time. About two weeks later, she had a stroke. She lived several days with her family sitting with her day and night. A little bird tried to get into the window all day, the day she died. After she died, the bird left and never came back. Sarah Malissa was bathed and put on a layout board that had been in the family for years. After she was dressed, she stayed on the board until the casket was brought to the house the next day. Mrs. Myrtle Hart took the family members to Corinth the next morning to purchase two silk scarves to go around her head. Sarah Malissa Bryant Mayo looked like an angel when she was laid to rest at the Palestine Community Cemetery.

Security guard gets little respect from girlfriend’s pals DEAR ABBY: I have been separated for three years and am now going through a divorce. I have started a new relationship, and, for the first time, I know what being in love feels like. “Mason” is a remarkable man with many great qualities. However, when we go to my friends’ parties, they often make comments and belittle him because he didn’t graduate from college. Mason is a security guard. It doesn’t bother me, but I feel bad when people ask him why he didn’t become a police officer “instead.” My friends are all professionals who married other professionals. They don’t realize that they can sometimes be snobs. I don’t know how to approach this subject without getting into an awkward confrontation. Mason’s feelings were hurt before by a prior girlfriend whose family and friends thought he was a loser because he’s a security guard. I love him and want this to work. How can I approach them about this matter? — UNHAPPY IN NEW YORK DEAR UNHAPPY: You may be affected because your friends are unable to see the wonderful qualities in Mason that you
do. Please understand that they may feel they are trying to look Abigail out for Van Buren your best interests Dear Abby after your divorce. If your friends persist in making comments to Mason about his job, you should ask them to please stop because they are making both of you uncomfortable. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t caution you: After someone has experienced a divorce, it is not unusual to experience a rush of adrenaline during the next relationship. The problem is that it usually doesn’t last, which is why rebound relationships often don’t work. This is not to imply that there is anything wrong with Mason, only that you would be wise to take your time before rushing into another marriage.

Beck looks for new connection with ‘Song Reader’ BY CHRIS TALBOTT Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Beck Hansen wants you to think about the way music has changed over the last century and what that means about how human beings engage each other these days. Laboring over the intricate and ornate details of his new “Song Reader” sheet music project, he was struck by how social music used to be — something we’ve lost in the age of ear buds. “You watch an old film and see how people would dance together in the ‘20s, ‘30s and ‘40s. You’d go out and people would switch partners and it was a way of social interaction,” Hansen said. “It’s something that was part of what brought people together. Playing music in the home is another aspect of that that’s been lost. Again, I’m not on a campaign to get people to take up songs and play
music in their home or anything. But it is interesting to me, the loss of that, what it means.” Beck hopes the “Song Reader” inspires some of us to pick up instruments and limber our vocal cords. It includes 20 songs annotated on sheet music that’s been decorated in the style popular in the early 20th century when the songwriting industry was a thriving enterprise with billions of songs sold. The 42-year-old singer notes in the book’s preface that Bing Crosby’s “Sweet Leilani” sold an estimated 54 million copies in 1937, meaning about 40 percent or more of the U.S. population was engaged in learning how to play that song. They were touching it directly, speeding it up, slowing it down, changing the lyrics and creating something new. “There’s popular bands now that people know the
words to their songs and can sing along, but there’s something about playing a song for yourself or for your friends and family that allows you to inhabit the song and by some sort of osmosis it becomes part of who you are in a way,” he said. “So when I think of my great-grandparents’ generations, music defined their lives in a different way than it does now.” Beck proposed the idea to McSweeney’s Dave Eggers in 2004 and it soon blossomed into something more ambitious as the artist wrapped his mind around the challenge of not just writing a song, but presenting it in a classic way that also engages fans who might not be able to read music or play their own instruments. They quickly agreed it would make no money, but it seemed like an idea worth exploring. “And it seemed like
only Beck would have thought of it,” Eggers said in an email to the Associated Press. “It’s a very generous project, in that he wrote a bunch of songs and just gives them to the world to interpret. That’s a very expansive kind of generosity and inclusiveness that we’re happy to be part of. On a formal level, we love projects like this, that are unprecedented, and that result in a beautiful object full of great art and great writing. And it all started with Beck. It’s a testament to his groundbreaking approach to everything he does.” Beck hopes fans will record their own versions and upload them to the Internet so those songs grow into something more universal. As for his own recorded music, that’s a little more complicated. Beck’s not sure where he’s headed at the moment. He recorded an
album in 2008, but set it aside to work with Charlotte Gainsbourg on “IRM,” which he wrote and produced. He’s also been writing songs for soundtracks and special projects and producing artists like Thurston Moore, Stephen Malkmus and Dwight Yoakam. All that has left him feeling creatively satisfied, but he does acknowledge it’s been a while since he released 2008’s Danger Mouse-produced “Modern Guilt.” He says in many ways he’s reached a crossroads he’s not yet sure how to navigate. “This last year I’ve been thinking about whether I’d finish those songs (from 2008), whether they’re relevant or worthy of releasing. I know that doesn’t sound very definitive,” he said, laughing, “but that’s the kind of place I’m in — in this kind of limbo — and, um, yeah.”
The “Song Reader” spurred Beck to think about his own work in a new light as well. Spending six months finishing off the project after working on it sporadically over the years, he was struck by how much craft went into the creation of each song and how quickly music can come into existence today. “There is so much music out there, to me,” he said. “I don’t know if it’s just where I am in my own music making or if it’s a product of the amount of music out there, but I feel like a piece of music does have to have a certain validity to be put out there and to ask people to listen. ... I feel like it’s impossible for everyone to keep up, you know, so I guess I’ve been feeling like maybe there’s something to picking what you’re going to put out, about being more particular about what you put out.”
JRR Tolkien class at Marquette University proves popular BY CARRIE ANTLFINGER Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — The vast collection of J.R.R. Tolkien manuscripts initially sold senior Joe Kirchoff on Marquette University, so when the school offered its first course devoted exclusively to the English author, Kirchoff wanted in. The only problem: It was full and he wasn’t on the literature track. Undaunted, the 22-year-old political science and history major lobbied the English department and others starting last spring and through the summer and
“kind of just made myself a problem,” he said. His persistence paid off. “It’s a fantastic course,” said Kirchoff, a Chicago native. “It’s a great way to look at something that’s such a creative work of genius in such a way you really come to understand the man behind it.” He and the 31 other students can now boast of their authority about the author who influenced much of today’s high fantasy writing. The course was taught for the first time this fall as part of the university’s celebration of the 75th anniversary of “The Hobbit” being pub-
lished. And class wrapped up just before the film, “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,” was released Friday. The class looked at Tolkien as a whole, not just the “Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit.” The course was so well received, Marquette is considering more. “It’s the best class I’ve had in 27 years here ... for student preparation, interest and enthusiasm,” said English professor Tim Machan. “And I can throw out any topic and they will have read the material and they want to talk about the material.”
Horoscopes Sunday, December 16, 2012 BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Creators Syndicate
Under the Sagittarius sun and the Aquarius moon, we think of those whose needs are more basic, urgent or pronounced than our own. As one 19th-century Sagittarian journalist and abolitionist suggested, “Never respect men merely for their riches, but rather for their philanthropy; we do not value the sun for its height, but for its use.” -- Gamaliel Bailey ARIES (March 21-April 19). Many will offer help, opinions, ways for you to spend your money. Get away and listen to your own inner guidance. You won’t regret the decisions you make independently. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have lofty aims. Human failings must be accounted for, too. Knowing it’s not going to be easy, you’ll go after your goals with the fortitude required to meet them. Otherwise, what’s the point? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be drawn to mysterious types -- those who seem like they’re hiding something good. Can you be discreet? People sense whether or not you can keep a secret. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll pose important questions. How can you judge the worthiness of a pursuit? What is a worthwhile use of your time? The answers will start a lifestyle change. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your day will be filled with pleasures to savor, like the taste of your favorite drink, the iridescent thrill of an unpredict-
able sky and the dulcet sound of a loved one’s voice. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The best part of your day includes a harmonious assemblage of personalities. Look around and appreciate the people you’ve attracted in your life. You fit together. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You feel so strongly about your loved ones that you know you’ll do all you can to be there whenever they need you. If you could sum up your emotions in one word, that word would be “always.” SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The joy of life is dancing under your skin. You’ll share your taste, zest and spring. You may even be able to get a smile out of that depressed person you know. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Organization and happiness go hand in hand. Sometimes there’s a natural order, and life falls into an easy groove. Other times, order is an ideal that requires effort to maintain. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll encounter people far more reserved than you. Don’t take it personally. You may be willing to take social and financial chances that others simply can’t afford to take at this time. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your social savvy will come in handy. Stay aware of the subtle cues. If someone wants to give you a gift, let it happen. Accepting graciously is an act of generosity. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Something surprising will be revealed. You could learn of intriguing relationship developments or get wind of the sordid details of someone’s past.

Marquette is one of the main repositories of Tolkien’s drafts, drawings and other writings — more than 11,000 pages. It has the manuscripts for “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit,” as well as his lesser-known “Farmer Giles of Ham” and his children’s book “Mr. Bliss.” Marquette was the first institution to ask Tolkien for the manuscripts in 1956 and paid him about $5,000. The university acquired the collection after it hired William Ready in 1956 to build its literary collection. Ready, who became interested in Tolkien after
reading “The Hobbit,” in turn hired Bertram Rota, a London rare book dealer, to serve as the agent for Marquette. Rota wrote to Tolkien and asked for his original manuscripts. Tolkien happened to be worried about his retirement finances and agreed to the sale. Tolkien died in 1973. Though Tolkien classes aren’t unusual nationwide, Marquette students had the added bonus of being able to visit Tolkien’s revisions, notes, detailed calendars, maps and watercolors on site at the school’s archive. And they got a lesson from the
school’s archivist Bill Fliss. “One of the things we wanted to impress upon the students was the fact that Tolkien was a fanatical reviser,” said Fliss said. “He never really did anything once and was finished with it.” Chrissy Wabiszewski, a senior English major, described Tolkien’s manuscripts as art. “When you get down and look at just his script and his artwork in general, it all kind of flows together in this really beautiful, like, cumulative form,” Wabiszewski said. “It’s cool. It is just really cool to have it here.”
