Hikers and bikers owe a tip of the cap to a work season that has produced at least 25 days without a rain delay. If it continues, they could be oicially using the 1.3mile extension of the Germantown Greenway Trail by Christmas. The $1.82 million project, delayed ive weeks by rain last spring, is now three months ahead. It runs from Kimbrough to Cameron Brown Park on the north side of Wolf River Boulevard, part of the steady push to connect users from Midtown to Collierville. “We’re trying to do all we can

In that time, he has helped raised $800,000 to train public schoolteachers in worldrecognized techniques for Josh teaching chil- Clark dren with dyslexia.

Next year, the partnership will extend to a second KIPP school. “I love Bodine School and will always be passionate about its mission,” Clark said in letter to parents this week. The decision to leave, he said, was “agonizing.” Clark will inish the school year. He begins at Schenck on July 1. When Virginia and Dick Bodine started the school in honor of their son, Rick, who drowned in Florida, they patterned it after Schenck.

ustomer satisfaction is on the decline at America’s fast-food restaurants, but there is a noticeable bright spot: Chick-il-A. The American Customer Satisfaction Index 2015 restaurant report released in June included Chick-il-A for the irst time. The Atlanta-based chain scored 86 out of a possible 100, the highest score ever recorded for a fast-fast food restaurant. At the other end of the scale, McDonald’s scored a 67. That relects a lower trend in customer satisfaction as consumers, no longer pinching pennies after the Great Recession, look for better quality ingredients and service at a reasonable price, according to the report. Smaller, more local restaurants can take heart from the report. As a group labeled “all others,” they scored an 81 for 2015. That places them in the top three, trailing Chick-il-A, Chipotle Mexican Grill’s score of 83, and just above Panera Bread’s 80. Scott Malone, owner-operator of the Chick-il-A at 4916 Poplar in East Memphis, points to a “mission

The two education plazas on this segment of the trail, both with seating and landscaping, will be set of with large arches. “We’ve always had to be creative in how we got groups of folks on Wolf River Boulevard to the trail,” said Pam Beasley, director of Germantown’s parks and recreation program. “It usually involved parking along the road and getting a park ranger or police to help with traic.” As Germantown has connected more links, including to the Shelby County Greenline, traic has risen tenfold, Beasley said.

to be remarkable” as a key to the chain’s high customer satisfaction. It starts with great food, Malone said, and great service. “That service comes from the selection of great team members, those team members that can meet or exceed our expectations,” he said. Owner-operators, generally one per restaurant, are another key ingredient, he said. The franchised chain has 13 locations in Shelby and DeSoto counties and more than 1,500 in about 40 states. “We also have great, raving fans of the brand which come in daily, come more often, pay full price for the value they receive at Chickil-A and they’ll tell others about those remarkable experiences at Chick-il-A,” he said.

To put that in perspective, you can get 15 cubic yards in one truck, so that’s 190 dump truck loads of ill,” said Tim Gwaltney, Germantown city engineer. The path itself sits on a bed of 3,800 tons of large gravel. Workers are tamping ill in now, contouring the shoulders to it prescribed runof patterns so water does not pool on the trail. “What I think is interesting about this new section is there are a couple of natural oxbow lakes that create great little ecosystems for all kinds of woodland creatures,” Beasley said.

debt loads make Chick-il-A’s business model vary from most fastfood chains, according to a University of Virginia Darden School Foundation case study. Careful selection of owneroperators and no Sunday hours for the restaurants are other hallmarks of the privately held chain, which attracts more aluent and more educated customers than fast food, cow-based burger chains, according to the case study. ACSI was started in 1994 by researchers at the University of Michigan, with the American Society for Quality in Milwaukee and CFI Group in Ann Arbor. Benchmarks to gauge the customer experience in restaurants ranged from accuracy of a food order to website satisfaction, courtesy and helpfulness of staf, quality of food and beverages and speed of checkout or delivery.
when it was channelized in the 1960s. Two underpasses will allow hikers and cyclists access without having to cross Wolf River Boulevard. One, on the south side of the road, gives pedestrians from the 22-acre Riverwoods State Natural Area access near the trail head. Bikers on the south side of the street can gain access by taking Farmington to Cameron Brown. A passage behind the baseball ields takes them under Wolf River Boulevard. This stretch is one of the largest pieces of the path to come on line since Germantown began its greenway in 1999. When the piece to Cameron Brown is inished, the city will have 11 miles of greenway, about half of the 22 miles on the drawing board.

In the News ROAD WORK
Changes set for two Germantown streets Steers fast traic of West Street By Jane Roberts robertsj@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2512
For eight years, Germantown leaders have nurtured a plan to realign two main streets — Germantown Road and West Street — using one to whisk throughtraic out and the other as a more leisurely access to shopping and restaurants. “We have two state highways that bisect the city (Poplar and Germantown Road), said City Administrator Patrick Lawton. “They carry a lot of traic. We need to look out for the pedestrians in our community if we want to be a walkable community.� Residents will get their irst chance to ask questions and hear the rationale in a public hearing at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Council Chambers. The plan is to extend Germantown Road to West Street, north of the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks. West, in turn, would extend to the east, angling to an intersection at what is now North Street. North would be demolished, along with a handful of businesses, including Triumph Bank, 7540 North St. and six shops in the strip mall Alex Jekels has owned 40 years. “It’s absolutely bad for all the businesses there, no matter what the mayor says. I don’t understand why they are doing it except that they got the funding,� Jekels said. He says the combination of train traic and a
new stoplight at the intersection will back up traic down both streets. “Retail and congestion don’t work,� Jekels says. He also says his tenants, who have invested in their businesses, will not be able to ind space as afordable as his. “This is a real problem for real people who don’t have money to move around.� If approved, construction would start in 2016 and last more than a year. The city requested funding through the Memphis Metropolitan Planning Organization. The project ranked high enough in the current cycle and was funded. Because much of the improvement involves State Route 177 (Germantown Road), the state Department of Transportation agreed to cover 10 percent, which means Germantown will be reimbursed for 90 percent of the cost. “Our community has a very long, rich tradition of being as iscally responsible as possible,� Mayor Mike Palazzolo said. “If a project has been identiied as a priority, and funding sources open up, we take advantage of that.� But it is incorrect, he said, to say the funding is driving the timing. “This was identiied two budget cycles ago. This is just another step forward.� Palazzolo, who lives in the area, met with about 20 stakeholders, including residents, on Thursday. “I got very good feedback. When you meet with stakeholders, you get a broader view of what it could be,� he said. He said there were concerns about the city’s plan to take private property
through eminent domain. “Of course, it has to be done in a fair and equitable way,� Palazzolo said. He also noted that Germantown city leaders would be make a “real efort� to identify vacant commercial property that could be used by displaced tenants. The conversation was enough to ease worries for Walker Taylor, who owns Germantown Commissary. “My concerns were addressed satisfactorily. Mainly, our stretch will be called Old Germantown Road and not West,� he said, which spares him expense of changing the restaurant’s address. “It’s not just stationery and business cards, it’s all the social media sites. And all our suppliers.� But he can’t help but worry that he’ll lose business during road construction. “It’s going to be disruptive. ... You change people’s habits, and they don’t always come back. People say, ‘You’re a destination.’ But you know what? Destinations change.� Boyd Maize, 91, who served as a Germantown alderman through 1980, is watching with quiet alarm. “I am very much opposed to the project,� he said. In the 1970s, he says, aldermen extended West to Farmington to bypass Germantown Road in the old part of the city. They also eliminated the cross streets so the traic couldn’t migrate back to Germantown Road. The solution, he says, is to build an underpass beneath Norfolk Southern’s track and close the stretch of North that still feeds into Germantown Road.
Germantown is holding a public hearing Thursday to hear from folks about its project to realign Germantown Road and West Street through the older part of town. RENDERING COURTESY OF TIM GWALTNEY

Residents map G’town goals for 15 years hence By Jane Roberts robertsj@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2512
Citizens, including one in hospital scrubs, joined Germantown public safety leaders one night last week and spent about two hours discussing what ire and police protection might look like in 15 years. Over the past ive weeks, the group has assessed the city’s status — including response times to emergencies and non-emergencies — and improvements needed by 2030. The group studied growth corridors and census projections and what those mean for police and ire services as the landlocked city grows up (vertically) instead of out. In its inal meeting last Tuesday, the public safety task force — one of seven subgroups working on the suburb’s Germantown Forward 2030 plan — narrowed its ideas to three or four goals, created action plans, prioritized the time frame (short-, medium- or long-range) and mapped out its key performance indicators so in 2030, city leaders will know how well they both anticipated and met customer expectations. “I’m just a mom with kids in school,” said Joanna Young, who was surprised when she was asked to be part of the public safety study. “I’m interested in response times. If I’m in a situation where I need help, I need somebody there quickly. I need my community to be safe so my kids have a safe place to play and can walk to neighborhood parks.” Seven other groups are winding up the same process, projecting long- and short-term wishes for education, economic development, quality of life, city services and environmental quality in Germantown. No consultant was hired to lead the discussion or frame talking points. For the irst time in Germantown — which regularly seeks citizen opinion — the longrange plan is coming directly from the people. A 30-member steering committee, representing the city’s demo-

ABOVE: The last time Germantown developed a long-range plan in 2004, “citizens said they wanted more retail, more restaurant locations. They wanted the city to be more urban-like,” said former alderman Greg Marcom. A new Apple Store at Poplar and West Street, where workers reconigure the exterior, should it the bill.

graphics in age, race, gender and the part of town they live, was selected in January. “The board (of mayor and aldermen) came to the irst meeting,” said City Administrator Patrick Lawton. “It was, ‘Thanks for being here. We appreciate your commitment to the community. Adios.’ “We don’t want political input into this,” Lawton said. “The board wanted it truly grass roots.” Final reports from the task forces are trickling in. The Board of Mayor and Aldermen will be asked to approve the plan, including a citizen-written vision state-
ment, when the process wraps up this fall. Kevin Lahner, city administrator in Waukesha, Wis., a suburb of Milwaukee, said the notion of citizens as savvy, sophisticated customers has gained traction in the past ive years. “It’s becoming more common to make the efort to reach out to citizens in formulating everything from strategic plans to the budget,” he said. “There’s always part of the reach-out process that is an education process. When you have these types of interactions, it helps educate the public on the
daily operations and your challenges and opportunities as a city.” Cities that don’t connect run the risk of being out of touch, he said, “which is one of the worst things that can happen when you work in government.” Any citizen could apply to serve on a task force. Some department heads did their own recruiting to make sure they had “out-of-the-box” thinkers on the committees, Lawton said. “We tried to ind people who expressed an interest, but if you looked at their qualiications, they might not indicate they have areas
of expertise,” he said. “You really don’t want just the experts,” said Germantown Fire Chief John Selberg, a leader for the public safety group. “You want people who say, ‘You know this crap about you guys getting to our house in eight minutes is not going to cut it.’” His group decided it wants Germantown recognized as the safest city in Tennessee. Brentwood, an aluent Nashville suburb, has the distinction now. “What do we have to do to catch up and/or beat Brentwood?” asked former alderman Greg Marcom. The answer is complex: Nashville scores a 42 on the FBI crime index. Memphis scores 80. Germantown shares a border with Memphis, Deputy Police Chief Rodney Bright noted. “That is certainly a challenge we face, especially since Memphis recently ranked as the No. 2 most dangerous city,” he said. His message to would-be criminals: “We’ll catch you here, follow you to your house, kick in your door, and we’re going to follow up.” A more nuanced discussion involved reducing crime. “Do we add cameras to parking lots to cut down on property crimes? Do we increase patrol cars in all neighborhoods? Do we up our police force? Can we afford to do that?” Marcom asked. “Those are the big questions.” The last time Germantown developed a long-range plan in 2004, “citizens said they wanted more retail, more restaurant locations. They wanted the city to be more urban-like,” Marcom said. “That’s how SmartGrowth was put in place.” City planners have since developed SmartGrowth codes, a series of regulations for new development meant to make the city more walkable and pedestrian-friendly. Selberg has participated in long-range planning in Germantown since 1984. “The amount of information available is higher now, and honestly, I think the expectations of the community are higher,” he said.

Hirt, daughters, Alicia, Maddie, Jacqueline and Julia Grace Education: Bachelor of science, business administration, inance (University of Southern California), masters of taxation, (University of Southern California) Civic involvement: Exceptional Foundation of West Tennessee board member, Women’s Guild First job: Arthur Andersen, Los Angeles Most recent job: Shoemaker Financial, inancial advisor/planner Most satisfying career moment: I have had many moments that were gratifying. But getting my irst job out of college was deinitely at the top of my list and landing a job at one of the “Big Eight” (back then there were eight now there are only three or four) public accounting irms. Career advice: Always put your best foot forward. Keep an open mind as there is always much more to learn. Working with people that are smarter and more educated provides a great opportunity to learn. Most of all never burn bridges as you never know when you will cross paths with someone down the road.
Person you most admire (and why): I most admire Mother Te-
resa for her ability to give selflessly to others. She was able to treat people with love, kindness and dignity, regardless of their social status. She was a woman of God and a great inspiration to me. Hobbies: I love to cook and often you will ind me in the kitchen. This is the way I show my love to others by preparing a meal and sit-

ting around the table enjoying it. I also play quite a bit of tennis and run with several running groups in town. It is a real inspiration when you are running alongside someone who is in their 70s and 80s. That is amazing. Last book you read: “Three Cups of Tea.” I often refer to Mother Teresa’s book of her famous quotes. It really inspires me and helps me to keep things in perspective. “The Five Love Languages” is also another book that I read recently. Favorite film or TV show: Favorite ilm is “Fried Green Tomatoes” because it walks you through the various seasons of someone’s life. The lead character really knows how to enjoy her life and marches to her own beat despite what others may think. Her spunky attitude is contagious…and depicts how as you get older you really don’t sweat the small stuf. Life is more about attitude than it is about circumstances. Favorite vacation spot: Playa del Carmen. My family and I have the best vacation memory on our vacation there. People would be surprised to know about me: That I grew up
in east Los Angeles and that I am of Mexican and Italian decent. I am luent in Spanish and that really surprises people. I attended Garield High School and was a student of Jaime Escalante, a math teacher portrayed in the movie “Stand and Deliver.” If you could change one thing in the world, what would it be: Re-

Germantown prides itself on a level of city policy that is cutting-edge but protective. As it wades into the fray of regulating the sharing economy it’s juggling the weight of property rights versus the collective good. The issue is Airbnb, the online business that lets homeowners rent out all or portions of their homes to people who typically stay three to four nights. Germantown will consider an ordinance that would limit stays to a minimum of 90 days. “This concept doesn’t it well with a community like Germantown,” said City Administrator Patrick Lawton, who polled aldermen one-on-one last week. The proposed ordinance will
be discussed by the planning commission irst and by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen. Airbnb sprouted up in San Francisco in 2008. The concept has grown exponentially to the point that Airbnb now boasts 1,500,000 listings. But Airbnb presents thorny issues for municipalities, including that most have rules that limit the business to hotels, boardinghouses and B&Bs. But there are also issues of safety, land use and complaints from neighbors who say they didn’t buy homes in residential neighborhoods to live next to transients and ight for parking . “We’re pretty strict on regulating home-based businesses as it is. Parking on the street, loud parties, things like that come to mind,” said Germantown alderman Forrest Owens.
Germantown is following Brentwood, Tenn., which began enforcing the 90-day minimum stays on short-term vacation rentals this year. It also had more than 400 hosts renting their homes and not paying occupancy taxes. Late last year, the city sent notices to each, notifying them they had 30 days to pay the taxes, including retroactive payments. Then on July 1, Nashville began enforcing a permit system that requires every short-term lessor to be registered. There is no limit on the number of owner-occupied homes, but only three percent may be owned by non-occupants. Germantown has four sites on the Airbnb website. The owner said he will cease operations if the city adopts the ordinance.

Community ACHIEVEMENT
G’town Fire Department wins Life Safety Achievement award By Kristi Ransom Special to The Weekly
The Germantown Fire Department was recently presented with a Life Safety Achievement Award for fire prevention accomplishments in 2014. The award was presented by the National Association of State Fire Marshals (NASFM) Fire Research and Education Foundation in partnership with Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance Company and was announced by H. Butch Browning, president of the NASFM Fire Research and Education Foundation.
“The Germantown Fire Department is honored to receive the Life Safety Achievement award,” said Germantown Fire Chief John Selberg. “The department places a high priority on providing public education to our citizens. The city supports a number of ire safety programs that allow the ire department to reach out to children, adults and seniors.” Since 1994, the Life Sa fety Achievement Award has recognized local ire prevention eforts that have contributed to reducing the number of lives lost in residential ires. The Germantown
Fire Department is one of 97 fire departments across the United States to receive the award this year for recording zero ire deaths or reducing ire deaths by at least 10 percent during 2014. In addition, award recipients documented active and effective ire prevention programs, as well as a clear commitment to reducing the number of house ires in the community. Although residential ires in the United States account for only 20 percent of all ires, they result in 80 percent of all ire deaths. The NASFM Fire Research and Education
The Germantown Fire Department was recently honored with the Life Safety Achievement Award for its fire prevention accomplishments last year.
Foundation is committed to reducing that number. “Experience tells us that fire prevention activity and public education can signiicantly reduce life and property loss from residential ires,” Brown-
ing said. “Prevention and education are very costefective compared to the traditional approach of relying on ire suppression. The Life Safety Achievement Award recognizes ire departments for their
ire prevention eforts and encourages them to continually improve upon those eforts.” Kristi Ransom is the marketing communications manager for the City of Germantown.

Employees take CPR, AED training classes Special to The Weekly
Since its establishment in 2012, the Town Safety Committee was formed to provide the safest working conditions for Town of Collierville employees and in turn, provide a safe environment for the public. Du ri ng mont h ly meetings, the committee, comprised of a representative from each town department, discusses the needs for more employee safety training. One popular topic of discussion was ofering CPR and AED training for every town employee. With many employees working in less occupied areas of Collierville, such as greenbelt trails, the response

time from irst responders could be delayed in an emergency. If a distressed employee is working alongside a CPR/AED certiied coworker, immediate action can be taken until an EMT arrives. The
faster response could easily save the life of the employee in jeopardy. “It’s become a goal of the safety committee to have every part-time and full time employee CPR and AED certiied in the town,” said
Derek Honeycutt, general services director and safety committee chairman. “We want to have the safest environment possible for town employees to efectively serve the Collierville community.” Earlier this year, the safety committee formed a subcommittee to oversee the training for the rest of the town’s employees. The Collierville Fire Department sent 12 ireighters through CPR and AED instructor training. On Sept. 10 the irst CPR and AED certiication course was held for committee members. Classes will continue during the month of October for interested employees at Town Hall, the court and library.

The Germantown Education Commission is giving students who attend Germantown or Houston high schools, in addition to Germantown resident students who attend school outside of the city, to compete on an academic level. The Battle of the Brains will provide a competitive playing ield for groups of students interested in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). The competition is scheduled for Feb. 15, giving students several months to research and prepare projects. During the competition, students present their methodology and indings to university professors chosen for their expertise in the project ield. Winners receive cash prizes. Registration forms and details are available online at GermantownTN.gov/BattleoftheBrains. Occurring on the heels of the Germantown Forward 2030 project, which updated the city’s Vision 2020 strategic plan, the theme of the 2016 Battle of the Brains is “Germantown Forward 2030: using math and science to tackle issues afecting Germantown’s future.” Participating students are encouraged to consider project topics that could contribute to the city’s success in 2030. The Battle of the Brains was developed by the Germantown Education Commission as a way to revive and nurture interest and celebrate student achievement in STEM subjects. The competition began in 2009 and has grown to include more than 120 students participating on 30 teams. In addition to generous cash prizes, members of the winning team have their names added to the coveted Einstein Trophy, donated by the Rodolfo Palazzolo family. Interested students may contact Stacey Ewell, education commission staf liaison, at sewell@Germantown-TN.gov or 901751-7559. Kristi Ransom is the marketing communications manager for the City of Germantown.

RETIREMENT
Jim Seabrook passes family business down to his son By Linda K. Bourassa Special to The Weekly
When talking to Jim Seabrook, a resident at Germantown Plantation Senior Living, one gets a picture of the legacy of Seabrook Wallcoverings. The company was founded by Jim’s grandfather in 1910, and the Seabrook family has spent four generations bringing beauty to homes and businesses in all 50 states, as well as overseas. Jim grew up in the family business under the careful tutelage of his grandfather, father and uncles. Later he married his wife, Patsy, they and started a family
of their own. Jim’s mother arranged their first meeting while he was away at college. Their kids, Hunter and Carey, live nearby in Germantown. His children and grandchildren are such a joy in his life. As his generation of the family took on leadership of the company, he continued the company’s wholesale expansion outside the United States. Seabrook products — proudly marked “Made in the U.S.A.” — are a hot commodity in China, Russia and India, among others. When Jim retired on his 80th birthday, the Seabrook employees created a unique portrait of
him made from a variety of beautiful wallpaper patterns. His son, Hunter, is now CEO of the family business but continues to rely on his dad’s experience and sage advice. Settled now in his comfortable apartment at Germantown Plantation, Seabrook comments on “how kind the people are in this wonderful place.” The best part, he said, is being near his grandchildren. The two oldest grandchildren are in college and the three youngest attend nearby St. George’s Independent School. Linda K. Bourassa is the president of Blue Moon, Inc. Marketing & PR.

A&E COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME AND MUSEUM
SALUTE TO SAM
PHOTOS BY RICK DIAMOND/GETTY IMAGES FOR COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME & MUSEUM
ABOVE AND BELOW: Artifacts from the life and work of Sun Records founder Sam Phillips are on display as part of a new exhibit, “Flyin’ Saucers Rock & Roll: The Cosmic Genius of Sam Phillips” at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville.
Exhibit chronicles the world-altering life of a Memphis maverick By Bob Mehr mehr@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2517
conoclast, visionary, original — these are the terms most commonly used to describe the very uncommon Samuel Cornelius Phillips. A dozen years after his passing, the maverick Memphis producer, Sun Records founder and American music pioneer is subject of a new exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville. Titled “Flyin’ Saucers Rock & Roll: The Cosmic Genius of Sam Phillips,” it explores Phillips’ life and his pivotal role in shaping the culture and history of the 20th century.
I
“We wanted to show Sam as an American original. To see him as someone in the tradition of Walt Whitman or Mark Twain,” says exhibit co-curator Peter Guralnick, whose long-anticipated biography, “Sam Phillips: The Man Who Invented Rock ‘n’ Roll — How One Man Discovered Howlin’ Wolf, Ike Turner, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley, and How His Tiny Label, Sun Records of Memphis, Revolutionized the World!” will be published Nov. 10 by Little, Brown & Co. (Guralnick will be making an appearance at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art on Nov. 11.) “How did Sam Phillips come out of an economically deprived background in Florence, Ala. and conceive the kind of vision that drove the studio and that drove Sun?” asks Guralnick. “That’s the key question — because there was a vision behind it. It wasn’t just a happenstantial thing. That was the idea that drove the exhibit.” Even for those who knew Phillips best, such as his sons and legacy bearers Knox and Jerry Phillips, the exhibit ofers the clearest answer to that question. “Sam was all about creating something that had to do with special expression,” says Knox Phillips. “Sam was one of those guys who had an aesthetic vision, and a musical vision. Even as his children, seeing the exhibit gave us a better sense of why and how he did what he did.” The Phillips exhibit follows a series of broader roots-music eforts from the Hall of Fame and Museum, including exhibits focusing on the Nashville R&B scene, the career of Ray Charles, and the current “Dylan, Cash and the Nashville Cats.” “Though our focus is country, the museum has always thought it interesting to see how country music interacts and interfaces with other genres,” says
Sam Phillips biographer Peter Guralnick (left) and Phillips’ sons, Knox and Jerry, attended the exhibit opening. Guralnick will be making an appearance at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art on Nov. 11 to discuss his new Phillips biography.
exhibit co-curator and museum editor Michael Gray. “And with Sam Phillips, it’s so beautiful, because the same guy who discovered Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins also worked with Howlin’ Wolf and Ike Turner and Rufus Thomas. That’s where it really gets interesting: in those intersections of diferent artists and diferent musics.” Although deeply identiied with Memphis, Phillips has strong ties to the Hall of Fame. He was enshrined as a member in 2001. What makes the Hall’s efort unique is its focus. While other exhibits or retrospectives have tended to view Phillips strictly through the prism of the Sun Records years, or through speciic artists he worked with, “Flyin’ Saucers Rock & Roll” traces his life from birth and reveals the formative inluences that helped shape his drive. “The exhibit takes an instructive look at one man’s life, which was full of personal challenges,” says Gray. “It
starts with him living on a rented farm in Alabama, picking cotton alongside black and white sharecroppers. It shows him playing music in the high school band, leading to a radio gig and his fascination with broadcasting and ultimately opening a studio — and this is all before he even started Sun. Also, his later work with the Phillips studio, his radio stations, his involvement as an investor in the Holiday Inn chain, that’s all there too. It’s not a story just about a few years in the ’50s, it’s much bigger than that.” To help fully represent that journey, researchers for the Hall and the Phillips family began investigating various archives. Poring over material saved by Phillips’ wife, Becky, his longtime companion Sally Wilbourn, and in the Phillips Recording Service vaults, they were able to unearth a trove of unseen material, inding scores of letters, business documents, acetates and other ephemera. ‘“The exhibit proved a tremendous
incentive for Knox and Jerry and Sally with the help of archivist Jim Jaworowicz to dig into the deepest darkest corners,” says Guralnick. “All kinds of documents turned up at the very last minute that no one dreamed had survived. There was an astonishing degree of things that hadn’t seen the light of day in many years.” While the bulk of exhibit features material from the Phillips family, other museums and private collectors ofered up pieces as well: Memphis’ Rock and Soul Museum passed along one of Phillips’ early tape machines; the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame delivered a Howlin’ Wolf owned Sun-era guitar; Jack White and Third Man Records contributed Elvis Presley’s Memphis Recording Service-cut acetate of “My Happiness”; and musician/collector Marty Stuart loaned Johnny Cash’s irst all-black stage costume. In addition to the physical pieces, the exhibit includes six diferent video stations. Taken in total, “Flyin’ Saucers Rock & Roll” maps out the DNA of Phillips life — from examining the inluence of William Danforth, whose motivational book “I Dare You!” was a seminal touchstone for Phillips, to looking at his time in the Cofee High School marching band, an experience which reined his ideas about both musical dynamics and leadership. But even more, it seeks to explain Phillips’ burning passion to ind the gifts and talents of those who’d largely been consigned to the margins of society. The exhibit opened on Aug. 27, with a VIP reception and concert. Since then “Flyin’ Saucers Rock & Roll” has been drawing strong, steady crowds and celebrity interest. “The times when I go in to the gallery, it’s been packed. People seem to be enjoying it and learning a lot,” says Gray. “I’ve gotten to give folks like T Bone Burnett, Chris Isaak, and Steve Shelley from Sonic Youth tours. Overall, it’s been very well received and I think that’s because almost everyone — no matter their musical taste — has been touched by Sam’s inluence and work.” As the exhibit carries on through June 2016, the museum will stage a series of tie-in events. Guralnick will appear at the Hall on Nov. 14 doing a Q&A with Gray. Also, the “Music City Routes” radio show will do a Phillips-dedicated concert broadcast sometime early next year. Other events are expected to be added in the coming months. For Guralnick, after years of contemplating the exhibit, inally seeing it come to fruition has been particularly gratifying. “Of all the things I’ve ever done, all the collaborations, I can’t think of anything that’s more perfectly, or imperfectly, realized than this,” he says. “It was a thrill to go to the opening, it was like a whole new world seeing it all put together and displayed. Maybe I’m prejudiced, but Sam’s life plays out like an action drama. Which is itting, because it was illed with action and drama.”

HEADING TO STATE White Station, Houston win sectionals By John Varlas varlas@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2350
A tournament newcomer and a tournament veteran will represent Shelby County when the AAA state volleyball tournament gets underway Wednesday in Murfreesboro. White Station earned its irst trip in school history Thursday, defeating host Bartlett 25-20, 25-20, 21-25, 31-29. There was a lot less suspense at the other sectional at Houston, where the Mustangs defeated Dyer County 25-10, 25-14, 25-11 to advance for the ninth time in 10 years. “I can’t stop shaking right now,” said White Station senior standout Abigail Duncan. “It really hasn’t hit me yet. “We’re just like the underdog team. We don’t have a lot of players that play club (volleyball),
whereas with other teams the majority of the starters do. We won with our raw talent and our ight.” Said irst-year Spartans coach Teresa Thomas: “I can hardly believe it. They’ve just worked so hard all year and I’m so proud.” With Bartlett looking out of sync early, the iredup Spartans took the irst two sets before the Panthers regrouped to take the third. The fourth set was epic. White Station led 24-19 before the Panthers rallied to tie at 24. The momentum shifted back and forth before White Station inally prevailed, setting of a wild celebration. “I think the diference was our serving and passing,” said Thomas. “It all came together today.” At Houston, the Mustangs used their size advantage to overpower the
Choctaws. Coach Becky Pendleton’s team went through a frustrating lull midway through the season but appears to be back on track at the right time. “We’re OK,” she said. “We have seven seniors and not all seven can play (at the same time). And we moved some people around; we were middleheavy but only had one outside hitter. “And we’ve always been known for our defense, but our defense didn’t really come together until the Mid-Tennessee tournament (earlier this month). We’re inally starting to block and dig.”
IN GIRLS SOCCER St. George’s advanced to the D2-A West Regional title game, beating ECS 5-4 on penalties after the two battled through regulation and overtime tied at 2. The Gryphons (8-6-4) host USJ in Tuesday’s title game. ECS (15-3-0) will play St. Mary’s for third.
This week’s Division 2-A state volleyball tournament in Murfreesboro could rightly be called the West Tennessee Classic. Three of the four teams in the ield will be from Shelby County as Harding, St. George’s and St. Mary’s won substate matches Saturday to advance. The most surprising were the Turkeys, who placed third in the West Region and went on the road to defeat East/ Middle No. 2 seed Zion Christian 25-17, 22-25, 2519, 25-22. It will be the irst inal four appearance for St. Mary’s.
St. George’s, which lost to Harding in last week’s region title game, advanced with a 16-25, 25-6, 25-16, 25-10 victory over Friendship Christian. The Gryphons will be looking to win their irst state title since 2011 when play begins on Wednesday. ECS, the other local hopeful in Division 2-A, lost on the road against nationally ranked Knoxville Webb. Briarcrest surged into the Division 2-AA tournament and won its 42nd match of the season, defeating Brentwood Academy 25-14, 25-14, 25-11. The Saints (42-4-1) will be joined at state by St. Agnes, which qualiied with a victory over Nashville Ensworth last week.
“We came out ready to play and were very solid in the irst (set),” said Turkeys coach Kari Duncan. “Then we started to play a little reactionary in the second and lost, but once we decided to just play our game, we got back on track. Our defense today was just great, but it was really a team efort.” “We know we’re the underdogs; we’ve played fewer matches than the other teams. But I think we have a chance if we can execute and get the other teams out of their games.” Harding, the top seed in the West Region, had no trouble with The King’s Academy, winning 25-10, 25-10, 25-7. The Lions will take a 37-6 record into the tournament.
HOUSTON GIRLS WIN REGION Houston’s Middle School girls cross country team, coached by Marc Riseling, has been having a tremendous season. The girls won the West Tennessee Region title Saturday at Shelby Farms and recently placed second in the junior high division at the Jesse Owens Cross Country Classic in Danville, Ala. That was the highest finish ever for a HMS girls cross country team at the Classic. The team will race Saturday in Knoxville at the Middle School state championships.

College Sports TIGERS 37, REBELS 24
FANDEMONIUM Tigers ‘beat the big dogs,’ upset Rebels for 13th straight win By Tom Schad Tom.Schad@commercialappeal.com 901-529-2525
T
he fans spilled over the stadium walls Saturday afternoon, tumbling to the ground and sprinting through the October air. The mob in the middle of the ield at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium grew. And grew. And grew. It was a party at the 30-yard line.
“It was like the best feeling I’ve ever felt,” safety Dion Witty said. After the University of Memphis football team completed one of the most monumental victories in its history, 37-24 over No. 13 Ole Miss, there was a celebration on the ield unlike anything at this stadium in nearly two decades. Paxton Lynch jumped up and down with strangers. Anthony Miller was in tears. Alan Cross took a turn directing the school band. A group of police oicers assembled at the base of the goal post, to prevent it from being torn down. They gathered to celebrate the Tigers’ irst win over a ranked opponent since 1996, when they beat a sixth-ranked Tennessee team quarterbacked by Peyton Manning. Saturday’s win was their irst over Ole Miss since 2004. It was their 13th consecutive win and made them bowl-eligible. It was electric. It was impressive. It was everything that Las Vegas oddsmakers and casual college football fans believed the Tigers could not do — and then some. “We knew we were underdogs. We wanted to beat the big dogs,” linebacker Jackson Dillon said. “We’re not the big hype guys. … We’re just regular guys, blue-collar guys. We’re going to go get the job done, no matter what.” They got the job done Saturday on the strength of their defense, which forced two turnovers and stopped Ole Miss on a pair of fourth downs in pivotal situations. The Tigers gave up 165 yards on the irst two drives, then only 315 yards the rest of the way. They sacked Chad Kelly

twice and held the Rebels to 1.7 yards per carry. They got the job done on the shoulders of Lynch, who completed 39 of 53 passes for 384 yards and three touchdowns. His irst interception of the season — a bobbled pass that ricocheted of Jae’Lon Oglesby and hung in the air before being picked of — was merely a footnote. Anthony Miller was his primary target. The Christian Brothers High product caught 10 passes for 132 yards and a touchdown. They got the job done with the help of a sellout crowd, an announced 60,241, an overwhelming majority wearing blue. It was the seventh-largest crowd in the history of the Liberty Bowl and the largest since 2006. And they got the job done because of coach Justin Fuente, who downplayed the importance of the game all week but always believed that it could be won. “My message to the team was you don’t have to be better than you are,” Fuente said. “You don’t have to be someone you aren’t. The best you is what we need. We need you to prepare and to play well.” Fuente talked all week about
the importance of a controlled start. The early moments of Saturday’s game were the opposite of that. Ole Miss dialed up some trickery on the second play from scrimmage, with Kelly lateraling to wide receiver Laquon Treadwell, who threw to Quincy Adeboyejo for a 68-yard score. A touchdown pass from Kelly to Damore’ea Stringfellow doubled the lead. The Tigers’ offense sputtered, and penalties slowed Memphis on both sides of the ball. Then, suddenly, it began to change. Perhaps the deining sequence came early in the second quarter, when Ole Miss was driving with a 14-7 lead. On third-and-one from the 10yard line, future NFL draft pick Robert Nkemdiche, normally a defensive tackle, took a handof for no gain and was injured. He left with symptoms of a concussion and didn’t return. Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze declined to try a ield goal and sent his offense back onto the ield, with hopes of delivering an uppercut. It didn’t work. Memphis went on to score 24 consecutive points in parts of the
second and third quarters, 31 unanswered points in all. Jake Elliott kicked a 23-yard ield goal. Sam Craft scored on a sweep from four yards. Lynch found Miller for a six-yard touchdown pass in the waning moments of the irst half, after another questionable fourth-down conversion attempt by the Rebels. Then, in the third quarter, Lynch threw a 31-yard touchdown pass to Mose Frazier. All the while, Memphis’ maligned defense proved stout. A unit that had been gashed for a school-worst 752 yards against Cincinnati played with heightened discipline and intensity. The defensive line hit and frustrated Kelly, alleviating pressure on the secondary. “(In terms of) game-planning, there wasn’t an adjustment. It was all just mentally,” Dillon said. “We were so hyped up. … We just had to come down to earth and play football.” Ole Miss fought back. Treadwell began to make an imprint, catching a six-yard slant for a touchdown. Memphis University School product Gary Wunderlich kicked a 24-yard ield goal. The Rebels pulled to
within a touchdown, and suddenly Memphis fans were looking at the clock and grimacing at how much time remained. After an Elliott ield goal and another stop, Lynch and the ofense took the ield with a 10-point lead and 8:52 remaining. They engineered a 16-play, 70-yard drive to soak all but 55 seconds of the clock. Ole Miss had one last-gasp chance. An interception by Arthur Maulet ruined it. Lynch took a knee, and the stadium erupted. “It just lets us know the city’s got our back,” Cross said of the crowd. “We’ve got their back. And we’re putting Memphis back on the map.” All week, two words populated video screens in the Tigers’ meeting room: Underdog Mentality. They won’t be able to use that much longer. Saturday’s win was the most impressive upset of a Power Five team by an American Athletic Conference team this season. None of that mattered in that moment, as fans began to spill over the walls. The improbable had happened. This win, this afternoon, was historic. And the party was just beginning.

ert Nkemdiche, his ive-star, allworld defensive lineman. Nkemdiche got stufed and left the game for good. Bramlett would have loved that moment. He would have reveled in what happened next. Because the Nkemdiche play was the clear turning point, the moment when his Memphis Tigers took charge. On its next ive possessions, Ole Miss ran a total of 14 plays for 11 yards. On its next ive possessions, Memphis scored three touchdowns and a ield goal. “Tigers are on an absolute tear,” tweeted ESPN. Over on Twitter, the word “Memphis” started trending worldwide. This was the day unfolding just as every Memphis fan had dreamed it might unfold. This was the perfect portrait of what Memphis football has become.
The previously maligned defense rose up to hold Ole Miss to 1.7 yards a carry. The lightly recruited quarterback looked like the best player — for either team — on the ield. Someone asked Freeze how the Memphis receivers were able to get so open. “A lot of that has to do with their quarterback,” he said. “He’s one of the best quarterbacks I’ve seen.” Lynch completed 39 of 53 passes for 384 yards and three touchdowns. Three former walk-ons — Miller, Alan Cross and Mose Frazier — caught 24 of those passes for 256 yards and all three scores. Meanwhile, in the stands, the Vanilla Gorilla played his air guitar, longtime suferers snapped photos as evidence that all this was really happening, and the massive crowd broke into an
impromptu wave. Who would have imagined that on the day Justin Timberlake was inducted into the Memphis Music Hall of Fame, he would be the second-most celebrated Justin in the city? Who would have believed that a party featuring Timberlake, Jimmy Fallon and Keith Richards would be the second-most joyous party of the night? The game turned into a countdown. Rudd assured a reporter he had already found a booster to pay for new goal posts. Except, it turns out, Memphis won’t even need new goal posts. Destroying Ole Miss was evidently enough. Instead, it was all happiness. All selies and tears and highives. Fuente dofed his cap as he walked of the ield and into the tunnel. Lynch bounced and danced in a student mob. “I got hit harder in the pile than I did in the game,” said Lynch. “Like nothing I’ve experienced in my life.” So now come the updated polls and the updated expectations. Now comes the chance to turn this moment into something more. Indeed, that’s what separates this memorable Tiger win from nearly all of the memorable Tiger wins that preceded it. This one is about more than the inal score. It’s about a program that is changing its trajectory and maybe its destiny. It’s about what has happened and what might happen still. “The city’s got our back and we’ve got their back,” said Cross. “No telling where that can lead.” To reach Geof Calkins, call 901-5292364 or email calkins@commercialappeal.com.

Sports ECS MIDDLE SCHOOL
Boys cross country team wins championship Special to The Weekly
On a day made for running (temperatures in mid70s, cloud cover and a light northerly breeze), the ECS middle school boys cross country team was able to place ive runners in the top 10 and win by the Shelby League Championship by a narrow margin over Memphis University School and eight other schools. Brandon Brackett led
the Eagle charge with a school record time of 11:19 (over the 2-mile course) for irst place. Branden Rogers followed with a third-place time of 11:22. Evan Stookey was eighth at 12:04. Cristian Salazar and Cameron Gagnon inished ninth and 10th, respectively, with times of 12:05 and 12:12. The team had watched the movie “Chariots of Fire” earlier in the day
and the main character’s speech in which he compared running in a race to life clearly made an impression on the runners. “It requires concentration of the will, energy of soul — the power comes from within,” said movie character Eric Liddle. The boys remained focused throughout the race and 27 out of the 29 that ran had their best time of the year. Even the last runner on the ECS team, Jack Gibson,

Germantown Hardware & Paint “A Real Hardware Store”
Members of the Germantown Charity Horse Show recently donated more than $30,000 to the Exchange Club Family Center.
FALL
GERMANTOWN
Horse show allots money to Exchange Club Family Center By Susan Waggoner Special to The Weekly
The Exchange Club Family Center, an area nonproit agency dedicated to ending the cycle of child abuse and domestic violence, received $35,800 from the 67th annual Germantown Charity Horse Show. Held every June in Germantown, the horse show has supported the Center for 17 years by raising funds for the nonproit’s programs and services. This year, the GCHS made a $25,000 donation to the center, which was in addition to $10,800 raised by staf and volunteers
through program sales. “The Germantown Charity Horse Show has been a generous supporter of the center, and we’re proud of the strong relationship we have with the organization,” said Barbara King, executive director for the center. “We would like to thank everyone who has helped us raise these vital funds to support the services that many of the children in our community desperately need.” As the official beneiciary for the event, the center’s staf sells advertising in the printed GCHS event program, and the center coordinates print-

ing. This year, volunteers from the center also sold the programs at the iveday event, which ran from June 2-6. “The Germantown Charity Horse Show is a wonderful family event that has deep roots in our community,” said Ross Herrin, past president of the GCHS. “We continue to be pleased with our partnership with the Center and are proud to support its eforts to break the cycles of domestic violence and child abuse in Shelby County and surrounding areas.”

Home & Garden
GARDEN FITNESS Spend fall getting your garden in shape for next year If you are dreaming about making a new garden or improving an existing one next year, now is the time to get moving. Don’t wait until next spring when everyone is rushing into nurseries and big box stores, illing their cars and trucks with plants and then trying to book time with busy landscape pros who feel like gerbils going round and round on wheels that never stop turning. Just writing about it makes me sigh with false fatigue. It may seem counterintuitive to install plants just as they are going dormant for the winter until you consider their life cycles and our climate. Diane Meucci, co-owner of Gardens OyVey in Arlington, likens climatic conditions in the MidSouth to being like a rainforest in the winter and a desert in the summer. “So do we plant as the desert looms or when the rainforest is coming?” she asked those attending her lecture on fall gardening basics last week at Dixon Gallery and Gardens. Plants are so much happier when installed in the fall because their roots have a chance to adapt to new surroundings when they have adequate moisture and when they are not working hard to produce growth above the ground. “Planting in the spring is like putting a newborn in the middle of the highway and expecting it to live,” Meucci said. You will probably need to give new plants extra water during dry spells for the irst year and then occasionally during the next two. After that, they should

be able to survive without it except during extended periods of extreme heat and dryness. Soil preparation is important to gardening success, say Meucci and Mary Iberg, a master gardener and landscape pro who also gave a talk on “Gardening 101” last week at the Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library. Before doing any digging, dial 811 to have your underground utility lines located and marked. It is a free service that many professional landscapers require before they start their work. Like all gardening tasks, there are several acceptable ways to prepare soil. Step 1 is usually clearing the area of existing turf, weeds or other vegetation by using a weed-killing product like Roundup or scraping the plants of. Iberg recommends deep tilling or spading to about 16 inches; Meucci goes for a more shallow tilling about 6 inches deep. Both recommend working in 2 to 3 inches of organic amendments such as compost (Iberg) or inely ground pine bark with a topping of composted cow manure (Meucci). Both recommend initially mulching around new plants with 2 to 3 inches of hardwood mulch (Meucci), pine straw (Iberg) or any other mulch that will de-

compose and enrich the soil. That layer of mulch helps hold in moisture and smother weeds. Visually, it’s a inishing touch that uniies various elements in a bed. After the irst year, add about an inch of mulch annually, keeping it away from the stems and trunks. Do not put a “volcano” of mulch against tree trunks no matter how many times you might see them in com-

mercial landscapes. Mulching against tree bark promotes rotting, which allows insects and diseases to take up residence in the trunk. Spread mulch around trees in a doughnut shape with a void or hole around the tree trunk and a low wide circle of mulch around the hole. Because tilling and turning the soil often bring dormant weed seeds to the surface where they can
grow, Iberg uses a product like Preen that inhibits seed germination. But don’t use it if you plan to sow the seeds of desirable plants directly on the soil because they won’t germinate either. If you are totally new to gardening or to gardening in the Mid-South, memorize this fact: We’re in Zone 7 for plant hardiness. Meucci points out that every 10 to 30 years we get a major frost that will kill
or set back plants that normally are perfectly happy here, such as crape myrtles and camellias. She recommends choosing plants labeled as hardy from Zone 6 to Zone 8 for extra winter hardiness, or better still, from those that will live from frosty Zone 5 to sizzling Zone 9. Read and keep the labels that come with your plants for future reference. But be aware that the estimated size of a perennial or shrub on a tag is usually smaller than what it reaches here. “If it says a plant will get 3 feet wide, plan on it reaching at least 4 feet in width,” Iberg said. Space them accordingly unless you like pruning and/or moving big plants around. During her talk, Meucci made some hydrangea recommendations: Native forms of hydrangeas such as the white Annabelle and oakleaf can be counted on to have lowers every year. “I like the big, bosomy, pendulous oakleaf Snowflake which goes from white to pink,” she said. “And the voluptuous, also bosomy white Annabelle.” She admits there is nothing better than blue and pink hydrangeas when they bloom. “But they bring a lot of heartache when they don’t.” If you have to have them — and many of us do — choose reblooming varieties that will produce some flowers even when late frosts kill the buds on the tip of the stems. The fastest-growing, most-likely-to-live climbing “hydrangea” is Moonlight, whose botanical name is Schizophragma hydrangeoides. It’s not really fast-growing, but it does climb higher sooner than the other vining type, Hydrangea anomala.
