Sunday alcohol sales take effect

BY REBEKAH FIELDS refields@go.olemiss.edu

The Sunday alcohol sale bill was passed Feb. 18, allowing restaurants in Oxford to serve alcohol on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Because the bill had to be approved by the Mississippi Alcohol Beverage Control and undergo a 30-day wait period, yesterday was the first day restaurants could serve alcohol.

While the bill allows the sale of alcohol on Sundays, restaurants open on Sunday do not have to sell alcoholic beverages if they prefer not to.

However, restaurants like Old Venice and Soulshine Pizza Factory plan to make selling alcohol on Sundays a regular practice.

“Alcohol will definitely be served on Sundays beginning the 23rd of March,” Old Venice waitress Sabyn Ladnier said.

Soulshine waitress Montana Patterson also confirmed that Soulshine will be adding alcohol to the menu for Sundays.

bill passed, many have questioned whether or not the 12 a.m. curfew on Saturday nights will be extended. According to the city or-

dinance for section 14-10, alcohol may not be served from midnight to 10:59 a.m. on Sundays.

“The curfew for Saturday

nights will remain the same,” said Megan Prescott, executive assistant for the Oxford Police Department.

The Big Event gives back to community

New parking director oversees major changes

A total of 1,700 students participated in 213 projects as part of the Big Event on Saturday.

The goal of the projects was to give back to the Oxford-Lafayette community.

This is the university’s fourth year to have a day dedicated to community service. The Big Event committee organized the various service projects that ranged from helping Oxford residents with their yards and working in the community garden to working with the Lafayette County Fire Department.

Senior public policy leadership major and Big Event co-director Madison Coburn has participated in the Big Event since her sophomore year. She said the community has given good feedback to all the volunteers who participated.

“The purpose of the event is to say thank you to the community and build a relationship with stu-

dents and the community,” Coburn said.

Senior management major and Big Event co-director Kristin Volker said a lot of preparation goes into the event. The committee started planning about 11 months in advance to make the day of service a success.

“We put in countless hours of work preparing, and it would not be as successful as it is today without each and everyone on the committee,” Volker said.

The program began with a welcome from Volker and Coburn. Other guests included Mayor Pat Patterson, Chancellor Dan Jones and Renasant Bank Vice President and Director of External Affairs John Oxford.

Ole Miss head football coach Hugh Freeze also spoke before the volunteers were sent to their project sites.

Intervention In Other People’s Problems

holds first spring scrimmage

Starkville native Mike Harris was recently selected as the new director of parking and transportation for The University of Mississippi. Harris joined the university on Feb. 24, and so far his duties have included working with university administrators and other stakeholders to define a strategic, long-term plan for campus parking.

Harris joins the Ole Miss community during the middle of a major construction project that has eliminated 443 parking spaces and 112 faculty and staff parking spaces temporarily.

“We, as a university, are moving forward with unprecedented growth and an enthusiasm that is contagious,” Harris said. “To be part of this is very exciting and also challenging.”

Work on the second phase of construction for the five-story parking garage and basketball stadium began March 8 and is expected to last until early 2016.

“We know that we must construct and upgrade buildings and parking areas, and yet, we also understand that there is a period of time during the construction and upgrades that it will be uncomfortable,” Harris said. “That is the time we are in now.

There is no way not to feel the impact of such monumental growth. I am an optimist and see growth as such a positive reflection on what this university is doing.”

To accommodate the construction of the new arena and garage parking, some spaces had to be moved and some parking became temporarily lost for this semester.

“We are always looking for options and have been monitoring the area to see where some available parking may exist that hasn’t come to mind for See PARKING, PAGE 3

Our love for intervention is really quite clear. Just three years ago, our leaders were clamoring for resolution in Libya because there was supposed indifference to mass killings by its leader, Muammar Gaddafi. Now, we have Russia and Crimea where our leaders are pledging billions to Ukraine and issuing unnecessary, and fortunately limited, economic sanctions against Russian leaders.

Looking back, Washington Examiner’s Gene Healy summed up our actions in Libya three years ago quite nicely: “Three years ago today, President Obama announced that America would ‘not stand idly by in the face of actions that undermine global peace and security;’ he’d decided to order military action in ‘support for a set of universal values.’ The next day, the bombing began.”

Yet the reasons for doing so are quite vague, considering the legal arguments; advisers at the state department asserted that T H E D A I LY

actions in Libya didn’t count as “hostilities” under the War Powers Resolution. And, of course, the usual argument of saving thousands of lives is thrown in there, too.

But does anyone actually turn and look at the effects of our “saving lives” justification or our well-intentioned intervention in Libya? Nope.

Obama and other presidential war power folks like John McCain continue to push new actions in conflicts we really shouldn’t care too much about.

After the NATO intervention in Libya in 2011, we saw the rebels continue their push for seven more months with additional death counts of over 7,000.

Sounds like we really saved lives there. Healy also reports that as a result of that intervention, we emboldened peaceful protesters in Syria to turn violent in hopes of similar U.S. and NATO rescue missions.

Just last week, headlines regarding Libya read: “Political Killings Still Plaguing Post-Qaddafi Libya.” More than 100 prominent people have been assassinated, leaving the country in unrest and confusion, and don’t forget militias holding over 8,000 people in prison.

Again, sounds like a job well

done.

Let’s now turn to Ukraine and Crimea. Ron Paul’s recent piece in USA Today pretty much covered it: “Who the F cares.” That’s my inappropriate language phrasing, not his of course. But seriously, Crimea is just one of four countries as of late to push for succession in the region; Scotland, Venice and Catalonia round off the others. Amazingly, or not really, we hear almost nothing on the other three, but good lord, did we get fired up about the Crimea’s vote to succeed from Ukraine and join Russia.

Paul poignantly noted that Article 1 of the United Nations Charter clearly states the purpose of the U.N. is to “develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples.”

Self determination is the focus there. His article gets better.

Obama and this administration are outraged over Russia’s occupation of Crimea, saying the succession vote was equitable to a gun to the heads of the Crimean people. But, we fail to note that our own occupation of Iraq not so long ago was trumpeted as a voice of democracy when the first vote was held there un-

der our own guns.

What a beautiful and brilliant comparison. It shows just how short-lived our leaders’ historic memories run and how two-sided our foreign policy remains.

Indeed, perhaps we should study our Constitution and, surprisingly, learn that it does not authorize us to overthrow other countries’ governments nor send countless trillions to peoples all over the world in hopes of a sustaining and building a “better tomorrow.”

Our government’s sanctions are pointless. They do nothing but disrupt trade when Europe, particularly countries that rely on economic engagement with Russia, can least afford any more monetary problems.

So, essentially, my words above lead to my humble advice for our country: Just stop.

Stop being in love with the concept of ubiquitous intervention, and stop continuously scratching that intervention itch. It will do others and us a world of good — allowing trade and economic relations to better our world. That’s the true answer to help save lives.

Oxford hires new city planner

BY RANDALL HALEY arhaley@go.olemiss.edu

Andrea Correll, director of planning and inspections for Pinehurst, N.C., has been chosen to succeed Tim Akers as Oxford city planner. Correll is expected to join the Oxford staff April 1 in order to work with Akers before he retires April 30.

“I think it’s wonderful to have the opportunity to work with Tim,” Correll said. “He can take me around and show me the issues.”

Correll is from Athens, Ga., and earned a B.A. in geography from the University of Georgia as well as a master’s degree in city planning from Georgia Institute of Technology.

Correll has previous experience

PARKING,

continued from page 1 commuters,” Harris said. “There is an open parking lot across from the Manning Center where over 100 spaces have been empty during the last few days of class.

“Anyone with a valid parking permit can park in this area, excluding the Park and Ride permit.

There is also available parking in two Park and Ride areas, and, with buses running every few minutes, parking and getting to class will be more efficient than riding around looking for a space and a lot less frustrating.”

The five-story garage is projected to add 825 parking spots and be completed by fall 2014. The basketball stadium is expected to be completed in early 2016 and will include a food court and academic areas.

Parking has never been a popular topic when it comes to students.

However, Harris prides himself on being student-oriented and said his goal is to put the needs of the students first.

“We should never lose sight of the reason we are here, and that is for the students,” he said. “Making sure we listen to their concerns and do all we can within the parameters we have to work in to address them is very important.”

One way Harris plans on eliminating the frustration involved with

working in Atlanta and Charlotte, N.C., both cities that encountered rapid growth issues similar to those of Oxford.

“There are issues that officials will figure out if they are concerned about the quality or the quantity of growth,” Correll said.

“When the elected officials decide how they want to address growth issues, I will be glad to follow their lead and work with the technical side of accomplishing that.”

Correll said one of the issues in Oxford is the growth in historic neighborhoods where people try to place an 8,000-square-foot house where there used to be a cottage-style house.

“I think it’s more important in historic communities, such as Oxford and Pinehurst, to be sensitive to infill,” Correll said.

For example, last week the Oxford Planning Commission rejected plans to develop five acres surrounding the historic Shaw house. The plans included demolition of five older structures on the property.

“That’s not the kind of growth that the planning board in Oxford wants,” Correll said. “It wasn’t consistent with the surrounding historic properties.”

Correll said she will have to experience Oxford more this upcoming month before she forms a plan to accommodate for Oxford’s rapid growth.

“Yes, I have a master’s degree in city planning and 25 years of experience, but I don’t have any experience yet working for Oxford,” Correll said. “So, I need to find my feet to address the issues.”

parking is through technology.

“We are looking to implement a new app that will help students find available parking on campus,” he said. “Other changes may come in the way of parking meters in various locations that will provide spaces to all as they turn over during the day. This will add shortterm parking options in certain locations.”

Harris is focusing on working on present problems while developing a long-term plan for parking and transportation.

The new director said his plan involves as much communication and input as possible.

“The problems that we now face with parking did not happen overnight, and it will not be fixed overnight,” Harris said. “However, I can assure you that we will be doing everything we can to address not only the short-term need but the long-term need as well.”

Some long-term goals on the horizon include a carpool and vanpool program that may allow for reserved central spaces for those who participate as well as a new software program.

“Some of the longterm goals are to implement new parking software that will create everyone a ‘MyParking’ account,” he said. “This will allow for online appeals and to view all citations and permits along with pictures that are taken at the time of citaMike Harris tions.”

The Department of Parking and Transportation is also looking at providing a more robust bike rental program as well as a bike repair shop.

“I see technology continuing to expand our options from communicating empty spaces to actual guidance systems to the spaces,” Harris said.

Correll has lived and worked in a college town before and said she is excited about coming to Oxford.

“I enjoy the vitality, the music and the art that are available when you work and live in a university community,” Correll said.

Oxford Mayor Pat Patterson said Correll had an outstanding interview, which won her the position from among multiple other applicants.

“Her educational credentials are impeccable,” Patterson said.

“She has a wide range of experience.”

Although Patterson said he is thrilled to have such a candidate as Correll to fill the position, he said Akers has done a great job for the city.

Akers, who has been the city

planner for nine years, said he feels the success he has experienced as city planner was through the efforts and dedication of other city staff and community volunteers.

“The one project that I have participated in and hope for continued future success is the Oxford University Transit,” Akers said.

Akers said Oxford is experiencing development pressure, and these pressures need to be managed to ensure the development improves the quality of life for all residents.

“The city needs a strong planning presence to manage and guide future development,” Akers said. “I’m sure Mrs. Correll will do an excellent job for Oxford.”

BIG EVENT,

continued from page 1 lar projects. Team leaders were provided with supplies if needed on site, including trash bags and working gloves.

According to Coburn, the biggest goal completed for the event this year was increasing awareness of the event. There were

more projects for volunteers compared to last year’s event. Volunteers were also able to sign up in groups for the first time.

Coburn and Volker hope to see the Big Event grow even more next year.

“My hopes for the future of the Big Event are high,” Volker said.

“I am positive the event will be great under new leadership.”

SPECIAL TO THE DM

Students prepare for the Eco-Fashion Gala

BY CHANDLER CLARKSON cbclarks@go.olemiss.edu

Putting on an event can be tough, especially when it is a schoolwide Eco-Fashion Gala.

Jeffery Peavy, a senior theater arts major at Ole Miss, is heading up the annual EcoFashion Gala as creative director this year. With weeks of planning behind him and more ahead, Peavy and his team are hard at work to make sure the Eco-Fashion Gala April 23 is a success.

“There are so many elements to the show this year,” Peavy said. “We definitely want it to be not just a fashion show; we want to spread sustainability holistically.”

The Eco-Fashion Gala will feature student artists, designers and models along with a musical performance and a trunk show from shops on the Square. Peavy said the designers have already been working on their designs, each designing around one to three different looks. The clothing will be made from recycled or reused items shown in two parts of the show: style and eco-fashion.

The gala will see some new additions this year. From a green carpet walk to an art exhibition, there will be something for everyone.

“Some of the new and innovative things we’re doing is that we’re having a pre-show green carpet walk, letting the

attendees that come to the show experience a parody of the red carpet,” Peavy said.

The marketing and public relations team have been hard at work, trying to promote the gala and make the event less “foreign,” as Peavy said.

Davis Bell, a sophomore marketing major on the marketing and public relations team, along with five others, has been using social media to help raise awareness of the event.

“The Eco-Fashion Gala has heavily relied on Facebook,” Bell said. “We have also advertised on Instagram using hashtags such as #UMEcoFashionGala or #UMGreenWeek2014.”

Without the public relations team, the university would “be in the dark about almost everything,” Bell said.

The team has branded the Eco-Fashion Gala and made T-shirts available for purchase at the event.

Ann Marie Lyons, a junior marketing major at Ole Miss, said she was unaware of the Eco-Fashion Gala, but now that she knows more about it, she is “really likely to attend and see what it has to offer.”

Refreshments will be served at the gala, encouraging those in attendance to consider incorporating vegetarian or vegan food choices into their daily lives. The message of spreading sustainability into all aspects of life will be en-

ity and really take something from it. So we are doing this to broaden the audience.”

The designers are rapidly working, with around two and a half weeks under their belt so far, and the big reveal is edging ever closer. Once the photo shoots have been completed and the promotional video has been shot, the EcoFashion Gala will be one step closer to the big event.

Peavy said he is looking forward to the gala. By expanding the audience and having the campus embrace the event, he said he will feel like he completed a job well done.

“I think my biggest reward would definitely be to see everyone there and enjoying it,” Peavy said.

The Eco-Fashion Gala will be held at 7:30 p.m. April 23 in Bryant Hall. For more information, follow the Green at Ole Miss Twitter account, “like” the Facebook page and follow the Instagram hashtags.

couraged. Everything from fashion to food can have sustainable options.

“I feel like you do not need to change your everyday life to practice eating styles,” Peavy said. “And it is not just eating styles — we are also trying to show people that it could also be the way you dress.”

In order to draw a diverse crowd to the event, the EcoFashion Gala team is hoping for Ole Miss personalities to attend and maybe even head

football coach Hugh Freeze.

From the Ole Miss baseball team to the basketball team to the Rebel Black Bear, Peavy is hopeful to find them in the crowd. The invitation will also be extended to Mr. and Miss. Ole Miss.

“It is not just about frills and fashion,” Peavy said. “It is something that everyone you know from the Ole Miss community can come together at this event and learn something about sustainabil-

Ole Miss football holds first spring scrimmage

BY DAVID COLLIER thedmsports@gmail.com

The Ole Miss offense and defense are headed on the right track after the Rebels’ first scrimmage of spring practice Saturday inside the friendly confines of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

The offense made explosive plays, the defense had some key takeaways and head coach Hugh Freeze was left feeling optimistic about the performance and effort the football squad has delivered through seven spring practices.

“I always want to watch the film first, but I still thought energy and effort was good,” Freeze said. “I thought the execution had a lot of issues, but when you’re playing so many kids, it’s hard for a lot of them to have

it figured out when you’re getting different looks and things are happening at a rapid pace.

I thought there were a lot of things for us to build on.”

The biggest plays of the day included touchdown passes from senior quarterback Bo Wallace to sophomore tight end Evan Engram, sophomore wide receiver Laquon Treadwell and sophomore wide receiver Quincy Adeboyejo. Redshirt freshman quarterback DeVante Kincade also threw a touchdown pass to junior wide receiver Cody Core.

Who will back up Bo Wallace at quarterback circulated as one of the biggest questions for the Rebels heading into spring practice.

Kincade and redshirt freshman Ryan Buchanan have received the majority of sec-

ond-team snaps, but freshman Kendrick Doss and sophomore Jeremy Liggins have also received looks.

“I thought there were some bright spots today at times,” Freeze said. “Now, there were some that were not so bright where they got in a hurry, and their mechanics get bad, and the ball is in a bad spot. I thought there were some decent things for the first scrimmage.”

Due to the running ability of Doss and Liggins, the coaches put them in normal red jerseys instead of the non-contact green jerseys that the rest of the quarterbacks wear.

Freeze said Kincade and Buchanan have yet to separate themselves from each other. He plans to use the final two scrimmages of the spring to largely determine their rank on the

depth chart rather than day-today practices.

“This (scrimmage) has to weigh more,” Freeze said. “For me, it does anyway just because it’s live, and you’re seeing a lot of looks, and it’s going through your head, and it’s a little faster than in practice.”

The defense has been focusing on familiarizing the younger players with the scheme and on improving depth.

Ole Miss defensive coordinator Dave Wommack said they still have about half of the defensive scheme left to install.

“The ones who have played a lot in it are doing great,” Wommack said. “We’re trying to show the new guys. We just have to go slower. There’s no reason to run before you can walk. Some of their heads are spinning, but we’re right where

Diamond Rebs sweep Mizzou in first home SEC series

BY MATT SIGLER mcsigler@go.olemiss.edu

FRIDAY: No. 14 Ole Miss 4, Missouri 3 Junior Chris Ellis went 7.1 innings and gave up just one run, and senior Austin Anderson and junior Sikes Orvis both belted home runs en route to a 4-3 win over Southeastern Conference foe Missouri Friday night. With the win, the Rebels improved to 19-4 overall and also got back to the .500 mark in conference play at 2-2.

“I thought it was his best outing in maybe three or four weeks,” Ole Miss head coach Mike Bianco said of Ellis. “He had good command with all three pitches and got ahead with a lot of hitters. I think he put them on the defensive in a lot of at-bats.”

The Rebels jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first inning behind the homers from Anderson and Orvis. Senior Will Allen would increase the lead to 4-0 on an RBI single in the third.

Missouri wouldn’t go away without a fight. A passed ball by Allen allowed a runner to score in the fifth, and an RBI double and RBI single in the eighth cut the Ole Miss lead to 4-3. However, the Rebels got a solid performance from junior Josh Laxer out of the bullpen to seal the game.

“Terrific, and we are really proud of him,” Bianco said of Laxer’s outing, which went 1.2

THOMAS GRANING | The Daily Mississippian

Students in right field partake in the “beer shower” tradition after a home run was hit in the first inning of the Missouri game Friday.

innings and yielded just one hit.

“He’s done that basically the whole year.”

SATURDAY: Ole Miss 7, Missouri 1 Junior Sikes Orvis continued to stay hot at the plate as he hit two home runs in Ole Miss’ 7-1 win over Missouri Saturday afternoon.

The Rebels clinched the series with the win, and it was also their 20th of the season.

“We swung it well,” head coach Mike Bianco said. “I think one of the things is we’ve got some older, physical guys who have had suc-

cess, and certainly when you look at college sports in general, those older guys seem to take it to another level.”

Although Orvis was able to get two over the fence, he wasn’t the only one causing beer showers at Swayze. Senior Will Allen got the scoring started for Ole Miss when he belted a three-run home run in the first inning. It was the second straight game in which Ole Miss jumped out to an early lead.

Missouri would scratch a run across in the top of the second on a sacrifice fly, but the Tiger bats just couldn’t come to life, as they recorded just four hits on the day.

The Rebels pushed the lead to 6-1 in the third on a sacrifice fly from senior Austin Anderson and the first home run from Orvis, which was a two-run shot. Orvis would then add his solo home run in the seventh to cap the scoring at 7-1.

Ole Miss also got a solid outing from sophomore starting pitcher

Christian Trent, who improved to 3-0 on the year with the win. Trent went six innings, gave up just four hits and one run while striking out five.

“I think it’s something he has done all year for us,” Bianco said of Trent’s outing. “He walks out there, and the stuff is even better than I think it looks. Just a great mix of a 90-mile-per-hour fastball on both sides of the plate. Today I thought his slider was the best it’s been in a few weeks, and of course the changeup. When you mix three pitches like that, he can roll a bit.”

SUNDAY: Ole Miss 8, Missouri 3 Ole Miss secured its first Southeastern Conference sweep of the season Sunday afternoon with an 8-3 win over Missouri. The Rebels improved to 21-4 with the win and now sit at 4-2 in conference play.

It took a while for the bats to get hot like they had been all weekend, but Ole Miss was able to

rally once again to secure the win.

Missouri held a 3-2 lead until the eighth inning when the Rebel bats exploded and they scored six runs in the bottom of the eighth.

“We talked about it last week after that tough Saturday, especially that first game, that you felt you left one out on the table and to not get two out of three the first weekend, we would have to sweep somewhere down the road,” head coach Mike Bianco said. “We were hoping we would sweep some weekend, but you’d have to sweep a series you weren’t supposed to. Maybe this was the game, with four errors and a game that, maybe when you look at it from a distance, you say, ‘They’re not supposed to win that game,’ but we hung in there.”

Junior Sam Smith turned in another good outing, going six innings for the Rebels and giving up three runs on five hits, but he faced a difficult challenge in going against Missouri’s typical Friday night starter, Brett Graves, who kept the Rebel offense in check before exiting the game.

“Unfortunately, we don’t score enough runs early that he doesn’t get something on the stat page,” Bianco said of Smith. “What Sam does and why he has so much success in being a veteran is he keeps it in control. He doesn’t let the inning blow up on him; he handles it. There were some innings there that they could’ve scored multiple runs, and he just didn’t let that happen by bearing down and making pitches. Proud of his outing.”

The Rebels hit the road this week to take on Southern Miss Tuesday in Pearl before traveling to Tuscaloosa to face Alabama in a three-game weekend series.
