ATTEMPTED MURDER Finger man faces charges related to January arson

By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

A McNairy County man has been charged with attempted murder related to a January arson investigation in northern McNairy County.

Guy H. Potter, 34, of 5237 Finger Leapwood Rd., in Finger was arrested by Inv. Robert Hitchborn of the McNairy County Sheriff’s Department and charged with aggravated arson, criminal attempt (of) first degree murder last Monday.

On Jan. 25, the residence of Brandy Petty and Brian Petty at 2046 Olive Hill Church Loop in Ramer was set afire in approximately six locations. At that

INSIDE THIS WEEK

time of the fire, Brian Petty was out of town and Brandy awoke to the smell of smoke and was able to slip out of a window without injury.

Their home sustained thousands of dollars worth of damage. Hitchborn concluded from his investigation that the fires were deliberately set.

During the investigation, authorities interviewed a juvenile suspect who told them that they had discussed the fire with Potter two or three times in the days before the fire. Based on evidence obtained during the interview and via phone records, Potter is accused with conspiring to have the juvenile set fires in the Petty’s residence.

Sheriff’s Department records show that during questioning, the juvenile said that they had discussed the fire with Potter two or three times before it was set. The juvenile said that Potter told them to make sure the smoke detectors were not working and to keep the family dog out of Brandy’s room.

In his report, Hitchborn said, “The suspect intentionally took steps to try and prevent...

Brandy Petty from waking up in the fire which could have caused her death.”

Potter will appear in court to face these charges on May 22.

Selmer Police call off high speed chase

By Christen Coulon Managing Editor

EASTER EVENTS BRING SMILES

Event filled week in county as citizens celebrate Easter PAGE 2A

A Selmer Police Officer was involved in a high speed car pursuit last Sunday afternoon in south Selmer.

The chase began when Ptl. Blake Huckabee observed a maroon Chrysler 300 with Mississippi license plates traveling at a high rate of speed. He then witnessed the vehicle, driven by a white male with dark hair, running a stop sign at the intersection of Old Stantonville Rd. and Falcon St. Huckabee said that when the suspect observed his patrol car, he fled the scene on Old Highway 45 South.

With Huckabee’s cruiser in pursuit, the suspect attempted to turned right onto Jones Road from the left lane of the highway before correcting and traveling across four lanes of traffic on the highway and into a parking lot on the left side of the road.

The officer said that the suspect was going so fast in the parking lot that it caused his back tires to come off of the ground.

MILLLEDGEVILLE HERITAGE DAY Day-long event scheduled for this Saturday.

PAGE 10A

USDA Rural Development State Director Bobby Goode today joined Rep. Marsha Blackburn, Pickwick Electric Cooperative President Karl Dudley and other local leaders to announce funding for jobs in McNairy County. The announcement was made at the McNairy County Industrial Park.

“We are here to celebrate this special occasion, with Monogram expanding into this building,” said McNairy Regional Alliance Executive Director Ted Moore.

“I am thrilled to be here,” Blackburn said.

With Monogram being a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Electric, it is now the largest employer in the county, Moore said.

“This building has kind of been a dream of ours,” said Plant Manager Ray Deming “In McNairy County and across the country, the best stimulus program is a job. For almost 30 years, Monogram Refrigeration has manufactured jobs and boosted the local economy in Selmer and beyond,” said Blackburn. “Today’s expansion announcement will provide more high quality jobs and strengthen Monogram’s footprint in West Tennessee.”

“We are tickled to death to be here,” Deming said.

Pickwick Electric Cooperative has partnered with the Selmer/ McNairy County Industrial Development Board and USDA Rural Development to purchase an existing industrial building in Selmer. The 125,000 square foot facility will make it possible for Monogram Refrigeration to add a new production line creating up to 40 jobs and keep the company from needing to relocate 160 existing jobs to another location.

General Electric has committed to $20 million in investment Staff Photo by Jeff Whitten in the two Selmer Monogram sites over the next five years, DemRep. Marsha Blackburn visits Ramer Principal James R. “Rusty” ing said. In this period, Deming said he hoped nearly 40 additionPetty last Tuesday. The congressman visited with students and al jobs would be created at these sites.

“What a great thing to celebrate this day and time is the retenstaff at Ramer Elementary before heading to the McNairy County

Industrial Park for the announcement of a funding project for local jobs at Monogram Refrigeration.

tion of jobs and expansion. It’s an awesome thing to be a part of,” Goode said.

“We got some space now. For those of you that have been at our manufacturing site, we are wall-to-wall,” Deming said.

Deming said he hoped to cover up the entire 17 acres of the new site in 10 years.

According to Deming, “Monogram has been manufacturing high quality household refrigeration equipment in McNairy County for almost 30 years.”

The company plans to introduce a new line that is expected to go into production in 2015.

“Working together Pickwick Electric, Selmer/McNairy Industrial Development Board and USDA help leverage the region’s existing strengths and assets,” said Goode. “Helping businesses, like Monogram, that are already here to grow means the good jobs created by expansion are a natural fit and pay dividends for the workers, their families and the entire community.”

“When I come this way, I feel like I am home. Where else would you have to stop on Highway 100 and let them unload a truck. When I had to stop and let them do that, I felt like I was really home,” Goode quipped.

The industrial building purchase is financed with a $1 million zero-interest loan from USDA to PEC that will be passed-through to the Industrial Board for the purchase of an existing industrial building. Monogram will lease the building from the IDB. The loan is part of the Rural Economic Development Loan and Grants program. The building was formerly home to Midwest Woodworking.

Monogram makes high-end refrigerators, costing between $5,000 and $14,000 retail, Deming said.

Others participating in the event included Sen. Lamar Alexander’s Representative Matt Varino, Tennessee Department of Agriculture Deputy Commissioner Jai Templeton, Selmer Mayor John Smith, McNairy County Mayor Ronnie Brooks, Southwest Tennessee Human Resource Agency Executive Director Mike Smith and RD Area Director Arlisa Armstrong and Specialist Joel Howard.

“This kind of public/private partnership is key to USDA’s StrikeForce for Rural Growth and Opportunity initiative to grow rural economies, increase investments and create opportunities in communities that are often held back by high poverty, geography or other barriers,” said Goode.

While poverty is a challenge in bigger cities as well, the reality is that nearly 85 percent of America’s persistent poverty counties are in rural areas. StrikeForce provides additional hands-on technical assistance from USDA local field staff because, Goode said, “Not every community is equipped to research, apply for or manage federal, state or non-profit resources that could help.”

During the last four years USDA Rural Development has assisted more than 1.5 million Tennessee families and businesses in 158 communities, investing more than $3.7 billion into local economies through affordable loans, loan guarantees and grants for jobs, homes, infrastructure and community development.

For more information on the meeting or USDA Rural Development programs available in southwest Tennessee contact the Jackson Area Office at 731-668-2091 x2, or 800342-3149 x1495. Visit RD online at www.rurdev.usda.gov/ TN.

CAR CHASE FROM PAGE 1A

After cutting through the parking lot, the suspect then continued down Highway 142, (nearly crashing by Pleasant Site Road) towards Stantonville at a high rate of speed.

As the chase continued the suspect turned down Charlie Burns Road then down Perkins Road with Huckabee in pursuit.

As the suspect turned on to a gravel road near Perkins Road, Huckabee’s supervisor, Sgt. Bob Pipkins, notified the officer to terminate the pursuit in the interests of safety.

Officers discovered the suspect’s car in the woods near a creek bed a short time later, however, the suspect had fled the scene and as of press time he is still being sought by the SPD. According to the SPD Pursuit Report, once captured, the suspect will face felony evading and reckless endangerment charges. Other charges related to the case are also possible.

Selmer Board of Mayor and Aldermen meeting in Selmer City Hall, May 13th, 2014.

By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

In response to a question on what he was doing to get jobs to Selmer at the April 8 Board of Aldermen meeting, Mayor John Smith said he had been working with the McNairy Regional Alliance and had just returned from a Workforce Investment Act conference. The solar farm is starting to hire, Smith said.

This will create around 200 jobs for over a year. Smith said the solar farm is in the process of trying to build two more farms, which would make it a four year deal.

“I think we’re making progress,” Smith said.

The Dixie Park and expenditures in the budget for capital outlays will bring more people to town, Smith said.

Spectrum is adding business and Monogram is expanding, Smith said. United Stainless is in the process of expanding. The Selmer/McNairy County Industrial Development Board is looking at a couple of properties.

Smith said he is looking at ways to market Selmer to data processors.

Alderman and Industrial Board Member John Finlayson said that industry cannot be recruited overnight. The problem for Selmer is it needs level land sites to build on.

“We’re looking at three or four different sites to possibly purchase,” Finlayson said.

Finlayson said that Pickwick Electric Cooperative’s updating of its fiber optic lines will help as will

the solar farm, which will make this a green energy area.

“There’s not another solar farm in the State of Tennessee,” Finlayson said.

“I have been busy, working every day toward it,” Smith said about creating jobs.

“We’re going to be at the top of the list. When this solar farm gets put in, it is fixing to put on a whole other level,” Smith said.

The board approved the application for a Local Park and Recreation Fund grant for the second phase of work on Dixie Park.

Park and Recreation Director Sybil Dancer said that the splash pad project would be added.

There will be parking on both the front and back of the park, Dancer said. The splash pad will be in the front of the property.

The city is using the $123,000 value of the land for matching funds, as well as the splash pad and $10,000 in-kind, Dancer said.

The board amended the beer ordinance on first reading to suspend the license of owners, not places.

That means if a new owner takes over a store under a revocation, the revocation will be of no effect against that owner. All ordinances must be passed on two readings and signed by the mayor to become law.

“We were penalizing the place as opposed to penalizing the person,” City Attorney Abernathy said about the previous ordinance.

Abernathy told the board that a default judgement had been entered against the Southwood Inn for back taxes owed. He said South-

wood’s books have been subpoenaed so the amount of taxes owed could be computed. A hearing is set for May 6. Abernathy said that an injunction would be sought to close the business down until taxes are paid.

“There are some tough remedies,” Abernathy said.

The board approved the purchase of a 2004 street paver for $14,500.

“The city currently does not have a street paver...We’re looking to purchase this so we can do some serious patchwork on several streets,” Smith said.

Alderman Paul Simpson said the paver would be used on short streets.

In his police report, Chief Neal Burks said the Selmer Police Department had received a $5,000 grant from the governor’s highway safety program. The money was used to buy three new in-car cameras, replacing some that were unrepairable.

The board voted to donate $250 to the 5210 Family Fitness Day. The board passed an amendment to the zoning ordinance requiring a digital Portable Document Format copy of site plans be submitted to the building inspector.

Digital copies require much less storage space than paper ones and it is much easier to email copies to the planner than to submit paper copies, according to Building and Property Inspector Jim Replogle.

“They would still be able to bring in a hard copy if they had to,” Replogle said.

Suspect allegedly kicks patrol car window, threatens deputy

By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

Jimmy Michael Johnson, 33, of Selmer, was being held at the McNairy County Jail, as of last Monday, charged with aggravated assault, criminal trespass, possession of burglary tools, public intoxication, vandalism and theft of property.

It all began when Deputy Zach Bay of the McNairy County Sheriff’s Department received an anonymous call regarding a suspicious person walking around the 700 block of Moose Lodge Road.

A nearby resident told Bay, according to his report, that her dogs were barking at something at an abandoned lot.

Bay went there and heard a laugh and saw someone lying on the ground across the back yard as if trying to hide.

This person, later identified as Johnson, stood up and ran toward Bay with a claw hammer and a hand saw in his hand.

Johnson disobeyed several orders to drop the objects and ran about 100 yards toward Bay, before stopping and dropping the tools about five feet from Bay. After several requests, Johnson lay down on the ground. It was at this time that Ptl. Robert Heathcock of the Selmer Police Department arrived on the scene as backup.

Johnson could not give a reason to be on the vacant property, owned by Grace Broadcasting Services, of Jack-

son. He appeared heavily intoxicated and was rambling random things.

Neighbors confirmed that Johnson lived across the street from the vacant lot.

After being placed in the patrol car, Johnson began kicking the windows and cage.

Once he was at the sally port of the jail, Johnson said he would be looking for Bay. Bay returned to the lot, where he found a satellite dish cut up and destroyed about five feet from where Johnson was lying on the ground.

Some of the metal from the dish was gone, but four other dishes appeared to be untouched.

Johnson will appear in court on July 3 to answer these charges.

Finger begins construction on new fire station, delays Roadscapes project

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 2014

Adamsville seeks to cut phone bill

By Jeff Whitten

By Christen Coulon

Head News Writer

Managing Editor

The Town of Finger has begun construction on their new fire house and Finger Mayor Robert Heathcock stated that construction is on schedule and is expected to take several more months.

The town announced at last Monday’s meeting that it was also able to add a metal roof and a generator to the building plans for an additional $118,119 to be paid from remaining funds from the fire house building grant.

The town has already budgeted for a new fire truck from the grant money and they plan to use all remaining funds (which currently stand at about $27,000) to add asphalt for parking after construction is finished.

Ironically, the addition of the new building and truck which was covered by grant money may put the small town in financial jeopardy due to additional insurance costs.

During the last several months Heathcock has been searching for ways to cut the town’s insurance costs and through reduced coverage on certain properties, cutting coverage on disused properties and cutting coverage for their non-existent police department they have found about $3,000 in savings. However, he said that additional insurance costs are expected to run about $6,000$7,000 leaving the town to figure out how to cover the additional costs.

The town also found out that their 8-year project to put up a Roadscapes Grant sign on Highway 45 has been delayed yet again due to government red tape.

The Tennessee Department of Transportation has denied the only bid the town received because the bidder was not approved to bid on the project until one day after the original bid was submitted.

Finger will now have to hold another round of bidding for the project which will open on May 1 and close May 30.

The town also announced that their ball season will begin next Monday. The board announced that shirts for the teams have been ordered and following the meeting the town’s aldermen pitched in to help set up the concession stand. The board also discussed purchasing remaining supplies for the upcoming season.

In a final piece of business the Town of Finger also plans to begin an adult softball league which will begin in the second weekend of May. Registration for the adult league will run $200 per team and is due at signups which will be held on May 3 at the Finger Civic Center. All proceeds from the league will go to ball field maintaince.

For more information on the adult softball league contact Stephen Graham at (731) 499-4451.

The Adamsville City Commission approved a telecommunications audit agreement at its meeting last Monday. Under the agreement, the Telecom Audit Group will look at the city's landline and cell phone service to find ways to cut unnecessary services and save money.

There will be no up front cost to the city. Instead, TAG will get half of any savings. The phone company will refund payments for services in the past 18 months identified as unnecessary.

Commissioner Tommy Morris was skeptical of the necessity of the audit, being the only commissioner to vote no on a voice vote.

The county received a fivefigure credit as the result of an audit of this kind, City Administrator Steve Simon said.

This audit will cover City Hall, the water plant and public works, according to Simon.

“It looks to me like you would have people here doing that,” Morris said.

“That's not what we do as professionals,” Simon replied.

“You know whether you're using a line or not,” Morris said.

Simon acknowledged that sometimes city workers could do that. He argued that this has been successful elsewhere and that TAG will look at the problem differently. TAG will go to the phone company and determine what lines the city has.

“That's what you got people for. That's what you are paying people for,” Morris said.

Commissioner Frank Lacey suggested that before an outside firm is employed, that the city get a list of phone lines from the telephone company and try to track as many down as possible.

“We can do that...There are things he knows that no one in the City of Adamsville knows,” Simon said about TAG. “I'm saying let's not give him the low-hanging fruit.

Let's find that first,” Lacey said.

“You probably haven't got 20 lines. That ought to be pretty simple to figure out, whether you need them or whether you don't need them,” Morris said.

During the audit, TAG will determine what services the city was charged for and did not use, Simon explained. TAG will then negotiate with the carrier on the amount of the refund. If the audit shows that the city has no unneeded services, the city pays nothing for the audit.

“If the people in this office can't figure out if we need 18 lines or not, somebody needs to come up here and figure out if we need these people,” Morris said.

In response to a question by Commissioner Mark Massey, Assistant City Recorder Glenda Anderson said a typical phone line would cost $33 a month.

“I just don't see that you need to get the city tied up in— I'd call them scams,” Morris said.

In other news from the

meeting, the commission voted to impose a moratorium on new gas and water line extensions and water projects outside the city limits. The reason for this moratorium is the water loss and the problem with the city's master meter, which an independent audit found to be inaccurate.

Mayor David Leckner signed a proclamation honoring John Liddy for his efforts in getting the $226,000 Safe Routes to School Grant. The grant financed the building of sidewalks from Main Street to Adamsville Elementary School so students could walk. This reduces traffic congestion and improves the students' health.

The project is 95 percent complete.

McNairy County Solid Waste Director Cindy Kennedy told the commission that Adamsville is now part of the county's recycling program.

This will not cost the city any money.

The commission accepted the lone bid of $88,000 for a trencher. This was above the $85,000 budgeted for the item.

The excess will be offset by the sale of two of the city's three old trenchers. The new trencher is larger and has a plow for plowing gas lines, according to Public Works Director Paul W. Plunk.

The commission took no action on a sign ordinance and a new zoning map ordinance.

The two ordinances will be sent back to the Planning Commission for the consideration of certain amendments.

Guys board to address necessary road repairs in town

By Janet Rail Publisher

The board of aldermen requested David Sides, city employee, to access all city roads to determine any necessary repair needed and present to the board at the next city meeting. “We need to make a map or note the worst spots in need of repair,” said Alderman Chris Howard.

“The culverts should be in any day for Sticine and Guys Chewalla roads. We also need to put dirt or rock in the driveway of Raymond Price's house as there is about an 8 inch gap between the driveway and the road and it can tear up the road,” said Howard. Culverts

were approved in an earlier meeting and the board noted that they still have some rock left to use on the driveway and passed a motion to complete the work.

The board also noted that the tractor used for road work's power steering was out and in need of a new pump but no action was taken. “We have the lawn mower going. We have four dates in May that the community center is rented,” said Alderman Wayne Henry.

City Recorder Megan Rinehart reported that the town needed to send a formal request to County Mayor Ronnie Brooks for a portion of the city's funds for fire fighting outside the city limits. The city's portion of the funds will total $3,250 according to Mayor Keith Rinehart.

The board discussed workman's compensation insurance to cover up to 10 firemen on their volunteer fire department from earlier meetings but postponed any action due to questions regarding the coverage of the current TML policy prior to finalizing additional coverage. The board will discuss specifics of TML insurance coverage at the next city meeting. The board will also request a formal roster of all active volunteer firemen from the fire department monthly.

The board approved the purchase of rose bushes to be planted at the entrance of the town center sign due to a citizens request.

The board approved the March 17 meeting minutes and financial report in earlier business.

McNAIRY VOICES Do you approve or disapprove of the job Pres. Barack Obama is doing?

Why or why not?

By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

President Obama and House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, a Republican, both propose cuts to the defense budget for next year, though Ryan’s cuts are smaller.

Obama proposed a $495 billion 2015 defense budget in February, down from the $626 billion that will be spent this year. In WHITTEN April, Ryan proposed $566 billion in defense spending.

Sen. John McCain severely criticized Obama’s budget, saying this would give the country the smallest army since before World War II, at at time when the world was more unsettled since the end of World War II. Obama’s budget would cut active duty military personnel from about 1.4 million to 1.3 million and the army from 520,000 to 440,000.

Estimates vary on how much China, the country with the second-largest defense budget, spends.

The Defense Intelligence Agency estimated that the Chinese spent $240 billion last year for defense.

Chinese government spending as a whole is planned to increase by 9.5 percent and the economy is projected to grow by 7.5 percent.

China has said that it plans to increase its 2014 defense budget by 12.2 percent to $132 billion in 2014, according to the Chinese news service xinhuanet. This comes on the heels of a 10.7 percent increase in 2013 and an 11.2 percent increase in 2012.

Chinese military spending for the last three years has surpassed growth of Gross Domestic Product, the value of all goods and services produced, but the 1.4 percent of GDP that China spends on defense is below the 3 percent average for all of the countries in the world. Foreign military analysts say that China’s military spending is higher than the official figure.

IHS Jane’s, a defense consulting and analysis company, estimates the true number is $148 billion, but estimates vary widely.

The U. S. spent $682 billion dollars on defense in 2012, compared to $166 billion by China and $90 billion by Russia, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.

The U. S. spends about $2,000 per person on defense, according to NPR. Only Saudi Arabia spends more (around $2,100 per person). China spends around $83 per person on the military, while Russia spends about $475.

Chinese defense spending has risen by 40 percent and Russian defense spending by 30 percent since 2008, according to the International Institute of Strategic Studies. The Russians plan to increase their defense budget by 44 percent over the next three years.

In the proposed U. S. budget, $170 billion will be spent on military pay, amounting to a 1 percent pay increase for members of the military, according to the Department of Defense. This is down from a 1.7 percent growth rate in 2013.

The strategy behind the new U. S. budget is to be able to fight and win a major conventional war in one region and have sufficient forces that would be able to inflict enough damage on an aggressor to deter an attack, according to the Congressional Research Service. The military will not be sufficiently large to conduct prolonged stability operations, taking around 100,000 troops, such as Iraq or Afghanistan.

Real U. S. defense expenditures increased from around $400 billion in 1962 to an all-time high of $686 billion in 2010, according to the Office of Management and Budget. Defense made up over half of the budget in 1962, but has declined to 17 percent at present. Defense spending declined from 73 percent of discretionary spending (any spending not interest payment or mandatory—mostly Social Security and Medicare). Defense spending declined from about 14 percent of the total economy in 1953 to 3 percent in 2001 before increasing slightly to around 4 percent in 2013.

Chandra Henderson (Stantonville): “I think Obama has been in the wrong place at the wrong time for this country.

This Obamacare is not going to cut it.”

Jim Henderson (Stantonville): “No. First, I don’t know why he was elected..

My vote is not going to change anything...I vote, but I haven’t voted since he’s been in office.”

Jonathan Wilbanks (Shiloh):

Sherry McGarrity (Adamsville):

“Well, some things he’s doing seem like it’s going okay and some things not too good.”

“Disapprove completely. I don’t think he’s delivered on 90 percent of his promises. I believe someone else can do a better job.”

Richard Terry (Sweet Lips): “I disapprove. I think he’s a communist.”

Douglas Lambert (Lawton): “I think he’s done a pretty good job...The Republicans won’t let him do anything.”

Tennessee Highway Patrol announces new campaign to reduce state traffic fatalities Tenn. Dept. of Safety and Homeland Security Submitted Article

NASHVILLE- Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons and Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) Colonel Tracy Trott today joined police chiefs and sheriffs’ association leaders and highway safety advocates to announce a campaign to reduce traffic fatalities by 15 percent in 2014 – the “Drive to Zero Fatalities”. This national effort was initiated by the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP).

The “Drive to Zero Fatalities” campaign is a data-driven effort that will focus on several traffic safety enforcement goals: seat belt usage, impaired and distracted driving and speeding. It will also include enforcement actions against unsafe behaviors of large truck and bus operators.

“Tennessee has recorded some of the lowest traffic fatality figures on record for the past three years. We attribute that accomplishment to the data driven deployment of our state troopers and the work of local law enforcement agencies across the state,” Commissioner Gibbons said. “We hope this year-long traffic safety campaign will produce even better results in Tennessee and nationwide,” he added.

In 2011, there were 937 traffic-related deaths on Tennessee roadways, while 990 people were killed in vehicular crashes in 2013, representing the lowest and second lowest figures, respectively, since 1963. In 2012, 1,018 people died as a result of a traffic crash, the third lowest figure since 1963.

“The message that we want to convey with “Drive to Zero Fatalities” is that no traffic fatality should be acceptable in your circle of friends. This is a personal slogan that everyone can relate to,” Colonel Trott said. “Each one of us should have a vested interest in keeping our highways safe and preventing fatal crashes caused by impaired or distracted driving, failure to wear seat belts and speeding. The “Drive to Zero Fatalities” is our goal for 2014,” he added.

Colonel Trott noted that traffic fatalities on state roadways have decreased by nearly eight percent (7.7%) for the first three months of 2014, compared to this same time period in 2013. He also reported that 192 people died in traffic crashes in Tennessee from January 1 through March 31, 2014. That is 15 fewer than the 207 vehicular fatalities that occurred during the same dates in 2013.

As of March 31, the THP has issued 28,850 seat belt citations in 2014. That’s 11,752 more seat belt citations or a 69 percent increase than those issued during the first three months of 2013. However, Colonel Trott and others still expressed concerned about the number of unrestrained fatalities across the state.

“There has been an 18 percent increase in the number of unrestrained fatalities so far this year compared to last.

Fifty-nine percent of the people killed in the first three months of 2014 were not wearing seat belts. That is unacceptable. The simple fact is, seat belt saves lives,” he said.

Distracted driving has become a concern in Tennessee and nationally in recent years. Tennessee has seen a drop in distracted driving crashes with 5,294 the first quarter of 2014, compared to 5,724 during the same time last year.

Sometimes a word or a letter can leave an impression on me. I asked Bobbie Crum, a RN on our transitional hall, who her favorite person was and she wrote the sweetest letter about one of my favorite folks...Grace Robinson.

Mrs. Grace is just Gracie to me. I always call her Gracie and she will say, I am only Gracie to her...to the rest of you, I am Grace. I hope you will enjoy the stories the next few weeks as I tell you who some of our staff’s favorite patients are and why they are special to them. As for me I like all of them (as most of the staff does) but there is always someone, for some reason, who may be a little special to you.

Bobby states she is one of the most blessed registered nurses who works at McNairy County Health Care Center. She states that she loves her job and the people she works with. She was born and raised in Tishomingo County, Miss. She received her degree in nursing from Northeast Mississippi Community College in 1996.

She then worked in a large hospital for the next six years. Then she found her calling in life in long term care. She is married to her husband of 45 years and they have three sons, seven grandchildren and one great granddaughter. She said she and her husband enjoy their family and doing things with them, she is also the proud owner of a sweet dog name Molly.

She has been at McNairy County

Hello everyone, I hope that you had a wonderful Easter remembering the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, also visiting with family and friends. We were blessed with a wonderful beautiful sunshiny day as the temperatures were in the 80’s, but of course, we will be complaining about the high temperature very soon.

Somehow or other we just can’t be satisfied.

Jenny Moore returned from Milwaukee, Wisconsin last week. She had a sick spell while she was there, but is doing much better.We are happy she made it home safely. We missed her while she was away.

Clarke Wiley is home doing much better, continue to keep him in your prayers along with the other sick and shut-ins in the community.

We extend to the family of Mr. Fred Mason our deepest sympathy.

A home going service was held on Saturday at the Shackelford Chapel in Selmer. Some out-oftown friends and family from Corinth, Memphis and other places were in attendance. Burial was in the Prospect Anex Cemetery. Shackelford Funeral Directors in charge of the arrangements.

Bobby Gene Damron and family from Murfreesboro, Adrian Damron and wife from Memphis and Mozella Baldridge from Bethel Springs enjoyed an Easter cookout on Saturday night on the lawn of Bob and Yyvette Damron in Selmer.

Bryne Atkins and family of Henderson Tenn., visited Mozella Baldrige Easter Sunday. They had a nice visit.

Douglas Williams of Nashville spent the weekend with his parents Eugene and Shirley Williams. He attended Easter morning service at the new Bethel United Methodist Church. The family enjoyed a cookout on Sunday afternoon.

Thought for the week : There are so many lovely things, so pause and look around see the varied sights, and hear the joyous sounds. Our Creator designed them specifically, both yellow... dandelions and daffodils to lift our weary souls to praise, cause that’s just the way we feel.

Grace and Bobbie Health Care Center for two years and states she has made a lot of friends in that time. One of her favorite patients is Grace Robinson, who at Christmas she adopted as her patient to buy a gift for. Her gift to Grace was a pair of earrings and a clip for her hair. She said Grace loved the gift and was so very proud to have it as her own. She and Grace like to talk and Grace will tell her all about her life in Memphis.

She calls Grace her Sweet Rose. Grace has lived in our home for a while, but before she came here she loved her dog I think maybe that’s why she and Bobbie are such good friends. Grace has a kind word for the folks on her hall especially her favorite aide, her sweet J. Better known to us as Jerry.

I really enjoy the letter Ms. Bobbie wrote me about Gracie as most of you know geriatric patients are my favorite. So, I want to invite all of you to their book signing. They have written a book about their life and the great stories we have all come to enjoy. So, if you enjoy their stories in the paper every week please come to their book singing and they will all be happy to sign their page for you. All the money from the book will be given to charity so to me that is a great deal for them and you. The last book signing we had was such a special day for them, so I am counting on you to make this one special for them also.

Until next time...

Milledgeville prepares to celebrate its heritage

By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

As Milledgeville anticipates Heritage Day on April 26, a look back at its history is in order.

It all began in either the late 1890s or early 1900s, when the Spencer family came to the White Oak Canal looking for a place to settle, according to Dannie Kennedy’s chapter on the History of Milledgeville in Reflections: A History of McNairy County, 18231996, which was compiled and edited by the Reflections Committee for the Tennessee Bicentennial Celebration.

The Spencers built a water mill on the canal. More people settled in the area and after a while there was a sawmill, a gristmill, a blacksmith shop and a few stores.

Milledgeville was incorporated on Feb. 1, 1903 and was originally entirely in Hardin County.

The town’s name came from the mills, which were located on the edge of a cliff and the White Oak Canal.

Merchants got their supplies from boats traveling up and down the Tennessee River.

Settlers had to haul supplies by mule and wagon over the eight miles of dirt roads between the town and river.

The town had a one-teacher school in a very crude building in its early history.

Being located on top of a cliff and needing room to expand, in the 1920s the town moved one-quarter mile north to a level

field, where the town now stands.

Around this time, the Odom family started a church and cemetery on the edge of town. Also, roads were improved and Highway 22 and 22A from Milledgeville to Lexington, Tenn., and a little later Highway 69, from Milledgeville to Saltillo were built through town.

Milledgeville expanded into Chester and McNairy Counties from its original Hardin County location.

A school was built with funding from all three counties. The Tri County School served the first through the tenth grades. The first one burned in the 1930s. The second was torn down so a garment factory could be built on its former site in 1994.

With farming, especially cotton farming, a major part of the areas economy, a cotton gin was built in the town. So was a bank, a grocery store and a few beer joints. There were two doctors in town at one time. One was Dr. M. O. Ross, who delivered all the babies born in Milledgeville and the surrounding area.

Several businesses and houses were burned, but they were rebuilt. The Great Depression caused the town to lose its bank and several businesses.

A new charter was adopted by private act by the state legislature in 1961.

Russell Watson served as Mayor around this time and was followed by Joe L. Hutton.

The Board of Aldermen consists of two representatives from each of the three counties.

As a result of school consolidation, the town lost its school in 1969. Students went to the nearest school in their county. The old school building was given to the town by the counties and was leased to a factory.

The town established a fire department and added street lights around this time.

The Bank of Adamsville opened a branch in Milledgeville in 1973. The post office moved into a new building. A ball park with a lighted ball field was built which serves several surrounding towns. The city park has a pavillion and concession stand.

The town’s population was 265 in the 2010 Census.

Leland Alexander is currently the chief of the volunteer fire department. It has three

trucks and 12 firefighters, according to City Recorder Margie Alexander.

Michael’s Sportswear, a factory owned by Danny Swafford, is still in operation in the old school building.

The branch bank has closed, but the town still has a post office, a cafe and the Dollar General. It has three churches.

The Mayor is Dannie Kennedy and the Vice-Mayor is Tony McMurray, who is one of the Hardin County aldermen. Brenda Essary is the other alderman representing the portion of the town in Hardin County. Aldermen Steve Hutton and Danny Williams represent Chester County. Hershel Hollin and Ricky Hollin are the two McNairy County aldermen.

McNairy Central grad saves life

By Christen Coulon Managing Editor

WINEBRENNER

INDEPENDENT APPEAL v PAGE 11A

OTA At Our KUB

E S U O H N OPE

Recent MCHS graduate Tiffany Winebrenner has dreams of working in the medical field as a dentist when she finishes college. However, on April 4, Winebrenner, who is studying biology at Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas, was called to use some of her lifesaving medical knowledge much earlier than she expected when a customer at the tanning salon she works at was found unresponsive.

Winebrenner said she is a new employee at the business, and said that it was the first day she had been left alone. When the customer did not leave her tanning room after her appointment, Winebrenner found her, called 911 and began CPR. Using the CPR technique she learned in Debra Hurst’s Health Science courses at McNairy Central High School, Winebrenner

was able to save the woman.

“This woman came in...then like 30 minutes later I went to check on her,” Winebrenner said. “I had to run to the back to get the key to unlock the door. She was laying in the bed...unresponsive.”

Winebrenner said that a co-worker came back and was able to help her flip the woman over and she then performed CPR on the woman for seven minutes finally bringing the woman back.

The future dentist graduated from MCHS in 2014, and she said that she learned CPR from Hurst in 10th or 11th grade.

“I can tell you that Miss Hurst taught me so much,” Winebrenner said. “The things that she taught haven’t just helped me learn about the medical profession, but many are things that I use everyday. She is a great teacher.”

Winebrenner said that she feels that she can now better empathize with her former teacher after the incident. She said that occasionally the teacher would be late to school because she would have to stop and help at an auto accident.

“You could just tell she looked exhausted,” Winebrenner said. “She would tell us what was going on and I never really understood...And now, I am just in awe of her.”

Her former teacher said that she was very proud of the way her former student behaved, but she said that she wasn’t surprised that Winebrenner, who was always a good student and studied hard, was able to remember her training.

“I am very proud of her,” Hurst said. “She did exactly what she was taught. That is great.”

Hurst said the school’s Health Science Courses prepare students who may be interested in going into the healthcare field. She said students look into medical occupations available, then they expound upon that with CPR and first aid beyond what the students would learn in their standard health class. Next, the students take anatomy and physiology to help prepare them for college, and the school also offers an EMS class, a new Certified Nurses Assistant certification course, and clinical internships.

Hurst said she was happy to see that Winebrenner chose a future career in medicine.

AHS seniors work for Project Graduation

Adamsville High School’s senior class started their final year of high school with the goal of having an outstanding Project Graduation, and they have been working towards this goal throughout the year.

Lady Cardinals cage the Trinity Christian Lady Lions

By Brian Azevedo Sports Editor

The Adamsville Lady Cardinals played host to district rival Trinity Christian last week, and came away with a huge win.

Adamsville Trinity Christian

11 01

Adamsville put Parker Davis in the circle against the Trinity Christian Lady Lions, and she went on to pitch a great game.

In the first inning Davis was touched up a little, and the Lady Lions were able to push one run across to take an early lead.

However, the Lady Cardinals had an answer, and the top of the lineup was able to get things started in the bottom of the first inning.

Adamsville was able to rally and score five runs in the first inning, taking back the lead and take the wind out of the Lady Lions’ sails.

As Davis and the Cardinals went back into the field, Davis found her rhythm on the rubber and she kept the Lions’ hitters off balance for the rest of the game.

After their big explosion in the first inning, the Lady Cardinals were not able to put any more runs on the board until late in the game.

Still up 5-1 going into the bottom of the fifth, the Lady Cards had the win in sight.

Adamsville’s offense came back to life in the bottom of the fifth, and they were able to explode once again and put six runs on the board.

Due to the run rule, which is 10 runs after five innings, the Lady Cardinals were able to end the game early on a walk off hit from Laura Shiver.

This was a much needed district win for the Lady Cardinals, as they look to have one of the top seeds moving into the upcoming district tournament.

Kelly Beth Ernest sends a pitch to the plate for the Lady Bobcats. Ernest recorded two big wins last week over Bolivar Central and Jackson Southside.

11 01

The Lady Bobcats started the game on defense against the Lady Tigers, and Kelly Beth Ernest established herself quickly in the pitching circle.

Ernest was able to hold the Lady Tigers off of the board early in the contest, and gave up her only run of the game in the top of the fourth inning.

The Lady Bobcats had a little trouble getting their offense going early in the game, but they came alive in the bottom of the third inning.

Looking to get run support for their pitcher, the Lady Bobcats were able to push four runs across in the bottom of the third inning to take a 4-0 lead over the Lady Tigers.

Bolivar was able to score their one run in the fourth inning, but the Lady Cats had an answer in their half of the inning.

McNairy was able to score one run in the bottom of the fourth, taking the game to 5-1 but it was the bottom of the fifth inning when the Lady Cats came to life again.

McNairy was able to string together some hits and score five runs in the bottom of the fifth, extending their lead to 10-1.

After Ernest put another zero on the board in the top of the sixth inning, the Lady Cats only needed to score one more to end the game early.

The Lady Cats did just that, they were able to rally together and push across that last run and end the game with a score of 11-1 notching the big district win.

The Lady Bobcats had a tough time on their hands, when district rival Southside made the trip to Selmer, Tenn.

With Kelly Beth Ernest on the rubber once again, the game started off with the Bobcats in the field and the Lady Hawks not being able to score.

Ernest settled in and threw another great game, with her only blemish being the two runs scored in the top of the third inning.

However, this meant that the Lady Bobcats were playing from behind and had some ground to make up.

The Lady Bobcats were held scoreless through the first four innings, but their bats came alive in the bottom of the fifth.

McNairy was able to push three runs across in the bottom of the fifth to take a one run lead over the Lady Hawks.

Now pitching with a lead, Ernest settled in and threw two more scoreless innings for the Lady Bobcats securing the win, and giving the Lady Cats momentum moving forward.

Cardinals too much for Trojans to handle

By Brian Azevedo Sports Editor

The Adamsville Cardinals needed a big win to get the momentum back after their loss to TCA. The Cardinals played host to the Collinwood Trojans, and had a great day at the plate to get the win.

Adamsville 12 Collinwood 02

The Cardinals and the Trojans were set to face off, and it was Stone Lipford who took the mound for the Redbirds.

Lipford came out in the first inning and pitched well, and he was able to keep the Trojans off of the board in the first inning.

Unfortunately for the Cardinals, they were not able to score in the first inning either.

Once the second inning came around, Lipford had a little trouble on the mound but made his way back into the dugout after only giving up one run.

Trying to support their starting pitcher, the Cardinal offense exploded in the second inning. Adamsville was able to send every hitter to the plate, and they were able to push eight runs across and take a commanding lead.

Wallis scored one of his two runs after stealing the base, and added two hit to help his team beat the ford had a good lead to work with and continued to pitch well.

Trojans.

Although the Trojans were able to score one more run in the top of the third, the Cardinals still held a large lead.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, the Cardinals were able to get going again and push three more runs across, extending their lead to 11-2.

The Cardinals only needed one more run to end the game early, and after keeping the Trojans off the board in the fifth, they had their opportunity.

Moving into the bottom of the fifth inning, the Cardinals knew they only had to score one run to end the game, and that is exactly what they did.

Adamsville was able to score the run they needed, and brought to score to 12-2 ending the game on a high note for the Cardinals.

Selmer Unified falls in final contest of 2014

By Morgan Ouellette Sports Writer

In their last game of the season before their regional tournament, Selmer Unified Soccer Team took on Chester County.

They put up a great fight, but were defeated 2-0.

In the first half of the game, Selmer’s defense did a great job of keeping Chester County at bay.

While the ball was dangerously close to the goal during one of Chester County’s shots, Selmer managed to take it back up the field.

However, 25 minutes into the first half Chester County scored the first goal.

With the score at 1-0, Selmer’s team worked very well together at keeping the ball out of their goal.

Their defense was outstanding, as was their score keeper Jacob Cotner who managed to save seven of Chester County’s shots throughout the game.

After half-time, Selmer’s offense really began to shine.

A quarter of an hour into the first half, Chester scored their second goal.

That did not stop Selmer Unified from fighting back hard, however, as the ball remained in their favor most of the remainder of the game.

Selmer Unified shot a total of five shots during the game, but Chester County managed to save three of them.

All in all Selmer Unified played a great game, but they could not find their rhythm to possess the ball up the field enough to make more scoring opportunities.

Selmer Unified Soccer is made up of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders from every middle school in McNairy County.

They have had a great season with 5 wins, 4 losses and a tied game.

Coach Alek Floyd said, “I am very proud of my players for all their hard work and dedication that led us to a successful season.”

They faced the number one seed team in the region, of 26 middle school soccer teams, Monday night in Medina.

Bobcats hold on for the much needed district win

By Brian Azevedo Sports Editor

The McNairy Central Bobcats played host to their district rivals the Chester County Eagles last week, and came away with the huge district win, coming off of their victory over Alcorn Central as well.

McNairy Central Chester County

6 3

Playing at home, the Bobcats were the first in the field and they started the game off well not letting the Eagles score any runs.

In the bottom of the first inning, the Bobcats jumped on the Eagles early and they managed to push one run across taking an early lead.

Once in the second inning, pitcher Blake McCalvin once again shut the Eagles down, and did not let them score.

McNairy stayed consistent during their next at-bat, and they were able to again push one run across extending their lead.

However, in the top of the third, Chester County was finally able to score and put more pressure on the Bobcats.

The Bobcats had no answer in the bottom of the third inning, but they were able too in the bottom of the fourth.

McNairy was able to jump out and score three runs in the inning and extend their lead to 5-1.

Going through the sixth inning, the Bobcats were able to keep the Eagles scoreless and they were able to add one more run of their own make their lead 6-1 going into the final inning of play.

In the top of the seventh inning, the Eagles were able to rally and push two runs across but it was not enough to overtake the Bobcats.

McNairy held on for the huge 6-3 win over their district rivals.

McNairy Central Alcorn Central

7 4

The Bobcats made the trip down to Alcorn Central, and came away with the win.

In the top of the first inning, the Bobcats were held off the scoreboard, but they did not last very long.

After Alcorn was able to score one run in the bottom of the first, the Bobcats were able to answer back with one in the top of the second inning.

In the bottom of the second inning, Alcorn was able to reclaim the lead by pushing one more run across.

During the third and fourth innings, neither team was able to get any offense going, and the Bobcats were staying right on Alcorn’s heals.

In the top of the fifth inning, however, the Bobcats broke the game open.

McNairy was able to rally and string some hits together, scoring six runs in the inning and taking a 7-2 lead.

Alcorn Central was able to answer back in the bottom of the inning, but they were only able to score two runs and the Bobcats still held their lead.

McNairy just had to hold on for the win, and their pitching made that happen. The Bobcats did not let Alcorn score any more runs in the contest, and they were able to come home with the 7-4 victory.

Selmer Middle School fifth grade Social Studies classes were treated to Government Day on Tuesday, April 8, 2014. Mr. Larry Williams emphasized the three parts of government as he introduced his guests and told the students who represented the executive, the legislative, and the judicial sections of our city and county government. They discussed how government law is developed, interpreted, and enforced.

Ramer’s Saum successful in State 4-H Hog Show

Submitted Photo

Ramer Elementary fourth grade student Parker Saum proudly displays his POA Certification from a successful trip to the State 4-H Hog Show in Murfreesboro.

Julie Harstin Submitted Article

Parker Saum, son of Keith and Cheryl Saum of Ramer, and a 4th grade student at Ramer Elementary School, participated in the State 4-H Hog Show in Murfreesboro, TN, January 21 and 22. He fed out and showed two market hogs. Before he was allowed to participate in the show, Parker had to become certified in Pork Quality Assurance (PQA), which is an educational program to help pork producers of any age handle their pigs with the utmost care and concern for food safety, as they produce meat for the consumer. Parker earned second place in Showmanship, which is the competition where the youth show off their skills from months of training their hogs, showing them to the best advantage in the ring. One of his pigs placed 2nd in its class and received Reserve Champion in the lightweight division. His other pig placed 4th in its class. He is pictured here with his PQA certificate and with his Reserve Champion hog during the show. McNairy County Extension offers programs in agriculture and natural resources, 4-H youth development, family and consumer sciences, and resource development. The University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, U.S. Department of Agriculture and McNairy County governments are cooperating. UT Extension provides equal opportunities in programs and employment.

Multiple SES Pre-K students and their fathers decorate birdhouses on Career Day. SES Student Leadership Team Submitted Article

The students in Ms. LaShell Moore’s class enjoyed career day on Friday, March 14th with a few special guests - their fathers. During the event, students had orange juice and doughnuts with their dads, and worked with them to build and decorate birdhouses.

Afterwards, the students presented their dads with neckties that they had personally designed. Students in Ms. LaShell’s class were allowed to dress as various community members, and arrived in costumes such as: a train conductor, a sheriff, a teacher, Doc McStuffins, a UT cheerleader, a police officer, a princess, and a soldier. Everyone had a great time with the celebration of the working world.
