County schools’ enrollment grows

By David Granger

Dadeville and Councill see decline in students, Horseshoe Bend and Reeltown see numbers jump

Outlook Staff Writer

Tallapoosa County Schools enrollment for the 2015-16 school year increased by a total of 47 students from last year’s 2,863 to 2,910, according to final average daily measurement (ADM) reports provided to the Outlook on Monday.

Average daily measurement is calculated annually by averaging the total attendance for each of the 20 school days immediately following

Labor Day. Per-student allocations from the state’s Education Trust Fund are based on the ADM total from the last completed school year prior to the legislative session.

“Oh, gosh, yes, we’re excited about it,” said Tallapoosa County Schools Superintendent Joe Windle. “What’s particularly exciting is that our two outlying schools (Horseshoe Bend School and Reeltown School) have

given us the most growth.”

Horseshoe Bend School saw the greatest growth over last year among the five schools in the Tallapoosa County system, with its ADM increasing from 777 students to 825. Reeltown School was next with an increase from 792 students to 824. Dadeville Elementary School’s enrollment grew from 576 to 584.

The other two schools in the

County system – Councill Middle and Dadeville High – both saw drops in enrollment. Dadeville High’s enrollment fell from 441 to 408. Councill Middle School’s enrollment dropped from 277 to 255.

Both Councill and Dadeville High saw their enrollments drop for the second consecutive year.

It was a week filled with activities and at right, Branterro Banks had to endure punishment for stepping on the “D” in the lobby of the school during the week. Banks had to wear a cheerleader uniform while spinning around a bat at the pep rally. Dadeville took on Munford Friday for homecoming, but fell 26-12.

Eva Middlebrooks was sworn into office as Tallapoosa County’s Revenue Commissioner on Thursday after being elected in 2014 over a Republican primary challenger and an independent opponent in the November 2014 general election.

That’s the unique way that it works for the revenue commissioner.

“The revenue commissioner is elected, but they can’t take office until the next fiscal year starts,” Middlebrooks said.

“Of course, the election takes place in November, so I had to wait almost a year to take office.”

In the meantime, Middlebrooks said, her predecessor Linda Harris continued to do the revenue commissioner’s job. It gave Middlebrooks the opportunity to do some “training.” “(Harris) was here and she worked with me on a lot of things she handled herself that I wouldn’t have been able to learn anywhere else,” Middlebrooks said. “I considered it a benefit. She showed me how to do end-of-the-year reports, See REVENUE, Page A3

“She is the only one that I have seen at every meeting,” Mayor Jeff Walker said.

With a motion by Glaze, a second by Brody Crocker and a unanimous vote of the council, Glenn was selected.

Glenn joked before she was sworn in by town clerk and magistrate Kathleen Thomas.

“I am off to great start,” Glenn said while laughing after trying to figure out where to stand for the oath.

Afterwards, Glenn sat down with the rest of the council to carry on the town’s business.

Jackson’s Gap resident Kenny Carter came back to the council bringing a legal description of the three lots he owns and would like to put modular homes on. He explained to the council that the lots were each about an acre in size and that he intends to only put one home per lot. Mayor Jeff Walker explained that the issue would need to go before the town’s zoning board before the council could approve it.

The council voted to go into executive session to hear from Police Chief B.C. Cooper about possible litiga-

White said that 1,062 grams of marijuana, 282 grams of powdered and crack cocaine, 100 Ecstasy pills, four firearms, one vehicle and more than $10,000 in cash were seized after the warrants were executed.

Those arrested were: • Jermichael “Redman” Hart, 29, of Camp Hill was charged with trafficking in cocaine, trafficking in marijuana, possession with the intent to distribute, receiving stolen property 2nd degree, certain persons forbidden to possess firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.

• Carlos Patrick Moss, 35, of Camp Hill was charged with trafficking in cocaine, trafficking in marijuana, possession with the intent to distribute, receiving stolen property 2nd degree, certain persons forbidden to possess firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.

• Calvin Tinsley, 43, of Camp Hill was charged with trafficking in cocaine, trafficking in marijuana, possession with the intent to distribute, receiving stolen property 2nd degree, certain persons forbidden to possess firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.

• Stanley “Dog” Holloway, 52, of Camp Hill was charged with trafficking in cocaine, trafficking in marijuana, possession with the intent to distribute, receiving stolen property 2nd degree, certain persons forbidden to possess firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.

• Meosha Freeman, 39, of Dadeville charged with trafficking in cocaine, trafficking in marijuana, possession with the intent

to distribute, receiving stolen property 2nd degree, certain persons forbidden to possess firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Camp Hill Police Chief John Potts praised the Task Force and said he appreciated their help.

“It’s a valuable tool to have the help of the Tallapoosa County Narcotics Task Force,” Potts said. “Our is a small department and to have the added manpower, they are able to do a lot of things that we may not have been able to handle on our own otherwise.

“This was a pretty significant bust and it probably will pout a dent in the traffic in our area. But, more than that, it lets people know that in our area things are going to change and it’s not going to be business as usual. This here is a start and hopefully next time it will put an even bigger dent in the drug trade in our area.”

White said the arrests and seizures would not have been possible without the cooperation of all the agencies that were involved.

The US Marshal Gulf Coast Fugitive Task Force, Chambers County Drug Task Force, the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department and the Camp Hill Police Department all joined the Tallapoosa County Narcotics Task Force in executing the search warrant.

“This was a team effort and we thank everyone involved,” White said. “We aim to do everything in our power to arrest and convict anyone who is involved in drug activity in Tallapoosa County. This is an ongoing investigation and we hope to see more arrests in the near future.”

Revenue abstracts, how to handle litigation. It was good experience with her still being here.”

With Harris now having stepped aside, Middlebrooks said she is excited to finally take the reigns of the office herself.

“I’m looking forward to it,” Middlebrooks said. “I had to take a leave of absence, so it’s actually been 21 months since I started my campaign for this office. It’s been a very long road and I’m ready to see how everything’s going to go.’

Middlebrooks already has eight years behind her as an employee in the revenue office, the last several years in mapping and appraisal. And she comes to the commissioner’s office extremely prepared.

“I’ve worked in all the departments in the

revenue office,” she said.

Middlebrooks, who has a bachelor’s degree from Faulkner University and finished high school at Benjamin Russell, had to hit the ground running in her new position. The annual bills for property taxes were mailed Thursday.

“I should probably let people know that there are three ways to pay your tax bills now,” Middlebrooks said.

“You can mail it in, you can come into the office here at the courthouse and pay it and now you can pay it online.”

Middlebrooks said to pay a property tax bill online, go to tallapoosapropertytax.com and follow the instructions.

“The deadline to pay your tax bill is Dec. 31,” Middlebrooks said.

F i n a l l y , Middlebrooks wanted to thank Tallapoosa County’s citizens for putting their trust in her in her position.

“I appreciate all the support Tallapoosa County has given me, the faith they’ve shown in me and I hope to make them proud they elected me,” Middlebrooks said.

specific reason for either the growth of some enrollments or drops in others.

“All I know to say is that our population, I think, is becoming more transient,” Windle said. “I think we’re in a time when people are more likely to move for a job or more likely to move to live with a family member for whatever the reason may be. I just don’t necessarily any one thing you can point as the reason for some of these changes.”

Power of the press : A force to be reckoned with

I

n 1928, Frank Capra made a silent movie called “The Power of the Press.”

Douglas Fairbanks Jr. played Clem Rogers, an ambitious cub reporter hungry for a scoop. He gets more than he bargained for when his big story implicates the mayor’s daughter – who just happens to be Clem’s girlfriend – in a murder.

In the end, the heroic journalist lands the story and the girl, and exposes political chicanery to boot. The film was selected in 2005 by the United States National Film Registry to be preserved by the Library of Congress because it was “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”

We’re a long way from the age of silent movies, and the power of the press is being greatly affected by the changing media landscape.

“As news coverage democratizes and as producers proliferate, the fabled ‘power of the press’ may diminish,” warned Carl Session Stepp, University of Maryland journalism professor, in a recent article in American Journalism Review. “Without that power, how will news organizations stand up for journalists, such as those pushed around by police in Ferguson, Missouri, or targeted abroad by terrorists?

Or against the Obama administration’s backward policies on leaks and secrecy?”

Those sorts of questions are why the theme of the 2015 National Newspaper Week -- “The Power of the Press” – is so relevant.

This year is the 75th anniversary of National Newspaper Week. It was created in 1940 by the Newspaper Association Managers as a time to celebrate the newspaper industry.

The week, which this year runs Oct. 4-10, is a chance to remind our communities of what newspapers mean to them, by editorializing about our watchdog role, touting our coverage of local government and politics, and reiterating our commitment to providing reliable community information and public notice.

Of course, maintaining the power of the press doesn’t end with National Newspaper Week. It’s a year-round priority. We all know the power of the press is still a force to be reckoned with across this nation.

Editorial Our Dreams without goals are simply wishes Mission

E

ach year, the federal government begins its new fiscal year on Oct. 1. Their budget usually makes about as much sense as Clear Pepsi, but there’s little I can do about that.

There is, however, a lot I can do about my personal budget in my very own fiscal year.

I’ve set forth financial goals over the next six, 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively. I’ll have a few personal loans paid off within six months.

Ultimately, I want to have my house paid for in 24 months. At my current rate, I’ll have it paid in full in 288 months. That’s 24 years from now. I’ll be 67 years old. That’s just too darn long. It won’t be easy but with hard work and discipline, it can be done.

Last week, I mentioned purchasing Sea Monkeys when I was a kid. Sea Monkeys are just one of the silly things I’ve spent money on in my life. I also paid money to see Vanilla Ice in concert, too. Don’t judge.

Ok, so judge away. I deserve it. I bought a pair of acid-washed overalls from Gayfers to wear to that concert, too. Some nights, I wake up in a cold sweat thinking about that concert and all that it entailed.

I used to eat out a lot

JODY FULLER Columnist

and felt the need to clear my plate at every meal.

That’s just how we are raised in the south, but I no longer have that mentality. When I do eat out, I only eat half of it and save the rest for a later meal. That saves money in itself, but I mostly save money on food by cooking at home. Some people don’t like cooking for themselves, but I have no problem with it.

Last year, I set health and wellness goals. I not only reached those goals but have maintained them for a well over a year, and, quite honestly, it’s been easy. You simply have to believe in what you’re trying to accomplish.

I’ve wasted money on incredibly stupid things over the years, but in recent months, that has changed. I now have financial dreams that I’m tackling head on each day. On Oct. 1, the start of my fiscal year, I turned in my cable box. Getting rid of this motivation killer will save me over $100 per month, not to mention many wasted hours that I could be using to be more productive.

Dreams without goals are simply wishes. I’ve heard this anonymous quote for years and have lived by it extensively in my professional life. For example, I used to drive 500 miles to speak for free just to be heard, to get reviews, and to get my name out there. Today, people fly me around the globe and pay me to run my pie hole, too. I’ll be in Korea and Japan for the next two weeks doing just that. That’s not bad for a stuttering guy.

American entrepreneur, author, and motivational speaker Jim Rohn said, “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” I’m now more disciplined than ever before and have goals in place to accomplish my dreams.

I’ve learned from my financial mistakes, but some memories just can’t be undone. I also bought fake cologne from a pretty girl in the parking lot at Kroger once—out of her trunk, no less. I’m fairly certain I wore it to the Vanilla Ice concert.

National Defense Authorization Act good for Alabama

A

s you may have seen in the news, the Conference Report to accompany H.R. 1735 – National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2016 passed the House of Representatives.

We can all agree that providing for the common defense is our government’s most important duty. Each year Congress passes the defense bill to make sure that the Pentagon has the resources and flexibility they need to fulfill that mission.

I was appointed to serve on the conference committee and worked with a bi-partisan and bi-cameral group of Members to iron out all the details of this crucial piece of legislation.

Besides authorizing funding for the Pentagon to fund our military and help keep our nation safe, this bill included language that could directly affect folks across the Third District.

One piece of the bill I was thrilled about was

MIKE ROGERS Congressman

language similar to my amendment to allow the Army to transfer its surplus vintage firearms to the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) to sell. Although the final language was not perfect, I am pleased it was included.

This means the excess M1911A1 pistols, better known as 1911s, which used to be the standard U.S. Armed Forces sidearm, will be transferred to the CMP for them to inspect, grade and prepare to sell. Currently these excess 1911s are sitting in storage costing the taxpayers roughly $200,000 a year.

So in the near future, the public will have the chance to purchase this vintage collectible firearm.

The second inclusion that could impact east Alabamians is the

language that would prohibit furloughs at working capital facilities as long as there was funded workload.

Working capital fund facilities include the Anniston Army Depot, one of the largest employers in the area, so I am pleased this language will help offer those employees a little more security for the vital work they do for our brave warfighters.

Although the NDAA has passed the House of Representatives, at the time of this writing, it still must pass the Senate and then be sent to the President for his signature. President Obama has threatened to veto this bill. I urge him not to play games with our national security and to sign this important bill.

The Dadeville Record

Steve Flowers to sign new book today at library Staff Report The Record

Few states have as fascinating a political history as Alabama, especially in the post-World War II era.

Moving onto and off the state’s electoral stage during this time period of remarkable transformation have been some of the most interesting figures in 20th-century American government and politics.

Now, the backstage intrigue of Alabama politics receives a lively treatment in “Of Goats and Governors,” the highspirited new memoir by former Alabama Representative Steve Flowers.

Steve Flowers is Alabama’s most watched and read political columnist and commentator and he will come to Alexander City today to sign copies of his book. The book signing is set for 12 noon to 2 p.m. at the Adelia M. Russell Library.

“I’m really looking forward to being in Alexander City and visiting with all the people there,” Flowers said.

“People there are passionate

about their politics and I hope they will come by and see me at the library on Thursday.”

In addition to weekly columns, he Flowers serves as the political analyst for the University of Alabama radio and television network. His weekly radio commentary for the University is listened to statewide on Alabama Public Radio. He is also the political analyst for WAKA/the Alabama news network in Montgomery.

Steve has been an up close observer and participant in Alabama politics for more than 50 years. He is considered the utmost authority on Alabama politics.

Steve served in the Alabama House of Representatives from 1982-1998. During his 16-year tenure he recorded a perfect attendance record.

His House colleagues honored him as Outstanding Freshman member in 1982, Most Ethical member in 1988, and Most Outstanding member in 1992.

Some of Alabama’s political heavy hitters are praising the book.

• “Steve Flowers’ ability to dive deep into Alabama’s colorful political history makes ‘Of Goats and Governor’ a must read,” said U.S. Senator Richard Shelby • “’Of Goats & Governors’ offers a peephole through which readers can look back at three exuberant generations of Alabama politics,” said Dr. Edwin Bridges, Director Emeritus, Alabama Department of Archives and History • There could be no better guide to this colorful history than Steve Flowers, according to former Alabama Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor Bill Baxley.

“Steve Flowers has become our state’s leading political columnist and commentator,” Baxley said. “Of Goats and Governors is delightful.”

By Corey Arwood Record Staff Writer

Oktoberfest has ended in Germany but Alexander City’s has yet to begin, and this year the Parks and Recreation department says there will be another promising lineup of food and fun for everyone.

This will be the 35th year for the area’s annual Oktoberfest.

The Saturday event at the Charles E. Bailey Sportplex will bring back crowd favorites and introduce new musical acts, as well as new vendors.

“We offer a little bit of something for everybody,” said Jennifer Baker, program supervisor of Alex City Parks and Recreation.

And, Baker said that she wants everyone to attend what is probably the biggest one-day event her department holds.

She said that a lot of people attend just for the food, which will include all of the classic festival faire, from funnel cakes and roasted corn to the local Firetruck BBQ. Others, Baker said, go for the vendors, of which there were over 100 at the 2014 Oktoberfest. She said that they are expecting at least that amount at this year’s event.

“It’s a great event for the people in our com-

munity and also for the people outside of our community,” said Baker.

She said that the event serves as an opportunity to show off the park, and also as a promotion for the area to those that are attending from out of town.

There will be entertainment for all age groups, according to Baker, with kid’s activities ranging from pony rides and petting zoos to story telling from the local children’s library.

From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. there will be two performance groups, the Alex City Youth Cheerleaders and Rizing Starz Dance, followed by three bands, Ryan Roberson and the Lard Buckets, Painted Ivy and the Highway 280 Bluegrass Band.

There will also be a morning 5K Fun Run with registration at 6:30 a.m. and a mobile blood donation unit will be present at the festival.

Baker said that ultimately Oktoberfest is just a good way to socialize and enjoy the fall weather.

Admission is free and the event runs from 8 a.m. until the vendors close. According to Baker, there will be shuttle transport from the parking lot to the fair grounds and the event is wheelchair accessible.

Ruling could lead to VictoryLand reopening

By Carmen Rodgers Record Staff Writer

It has been almost six years since Milton McGregor was forced to close the doors to VictoryLand in 2010.

Then, in 2013 the state of Alabama seized over 1,600 electronic bingo machines form VictoryLand’s Quincy’s 777.

Before the raid there had been debate over the legality of the electronic bingo machines, which resemble slot machines.

Since the closing, the once popular venue has become isolated and desolate. Located at the Shorter exit, the massive empty buildings that once housed the largest gaming facility in the state now stands out like an empty oasis in the desert.

The closure left thousands of people in Macon and surrounding counties without jobs.

This; however, could soon change. On Friday, Judge William Shashy handed down an order stating that the state of Alabama must return the gaming machines as well as $260,000 that were seized within 45 days unless the state takes action to close the other six gaming facilities currently operating in the state.

“Macon County voters overwhelmingly approved electronic bingo in 2003 to secure much-needed jobs, economic growth and resources for their communities and schools,” McGregor said in a released statement.

“Today’s ruling clears the way for VictoryLand to reopen and to fulfill the wishes of those voters. VictoryLand’s

resurrection will mean jobs for thousands of Alabamians – and not just in Macon County.

“The ruling is a victory for communities across east Alabama. I am grateful the judge considered the undisputed evidence and recognized that I had been treated unfairly. But I am even more grateful the judge recognized that the people of Macon County had been treated unfairly. I look forward to the resumption of electronic bingo at Victoryland and the return of jobs for the people of Macon County and beyond.”

This ruling could mean the return to employment for thousands of people, many from the Tallassee area. However, Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange plans to appeal this ruling. In a statement made following Judge Shashy’s ruling, Strange said, “We strongly disagree with the judge’s rulings in the VictoryLand case. After the judge’s initial ruling in June, we filed an appeal that was stayed pending today’s decision. As we have done in previous cases, we are appealing the ruling and will be guided by the Supreme Court.”

On Monday, Strange filed a motion to stay Judge Shashy’s Friday ruling. Strange asked the state to retain the slot-like machines along with the $260,000 taken during the 2013 seizure until the Supreme Court makes a ruling on the appeal filed after Shashy handed down his ruling.

When VictoryLand was forced to close its doors in 2010, McGregor, vowed to fight the action

Carmen Rodgers / The Record

With the recent ruling from the Alabama State Supreme Court, VictoryLand could reopen. The ruling forces the state to hand over seized machines and money or close the other six facilities operating in the state.

taken against him and his business operation.

In February of 2010, McGregor was arrested at his home in the early morning hours on federal corruption charges. In 2012, McGregor was acquitted of those charges after nearly two years of legal wrangling. Most local people support McGregor and the reopening of VictoryLand. Most of the people agree that the closure hurt the local economy and left people without jobs and families without breadwinners.

“I was shocked, stunned, heart broken and frustrated. I had all of feelings at the same time. I had left a good job to go work at VictoryLand and three months later it was closed,” said Emily Moore, previous supervisor for VictoryLand.

Like most people in the community, Moore hopes to see the establishment reopen. “I’m glad it may be opening back up,” Moore said. “The county needs that for job opportunities. There are so many without jobs because the state made VictoryLand close. Now, those people may be able to go back to work. It just seems so unfair that the other casinos are still operating and VictoryLand isn’t.

“It’s a shame too because it was right after he spent all that money on the hotel and it is just sitting there empty.

Hopefully, now it can get going again soon.”

While the legal battle continues, the prospect of VictoryLand reopening becomes a little more feasible with each of these latest court rulings.

Tigers set to travel to No. 3 Leeds

By Robert Hudson Record Sports Editor

Mitch Sneed / The Record

Reeltown senior running back Cody Martin, center, finds a hole during last Friday’s road region game against Ranburne.

Rebels to host Woodland for Homecoming

By Willie G. Moseley The Tallassee Tribune

As far as Reeltown head coach Jackie O’Neal is concerned, last Friday’s 24-20 away loss at area foe Ranburne wasn’t a “comeback” that came up short. The Rebels had scored two fourth quarter touchdowns to narrow the margin but were unable to come up with a winning score.

“It was more ‘not getting started’,” O’Neal said. “We didn’t come out ready to play – we didn’t have any enthusiasm.”

The Rebels had trouble containing the efforts of Ranburne quarterback Dylan Wiggins, while the Bulldogs limited Reeltown running back Cody Martin to 80 yards. RHS also had a decent passing game, according to O’Neal, but too few drives resulted in points.

“It was one of those situations where we didn’t get off on the right foot,” O’Neal summarized. “They played hard the second half, but we didn’t have the intensity in the first half.”

Up this Friday is a home match against area opponent Woodland (1-5), of Randolph County. The opponent’s record, however, is irrelevant to O’Neal, as is the fact that Reeltown won last year’s contest by three touchdowns, 28-7.

“We’ve got to concentrate on doing things right on our side of the ball,” the veteran coach said. “We’re not executing very well. A lot of teams are going to play their best games when they’re playing us. Our kids need to understand it.”

Unlike some other opponents, Woodland does not have a standout individual who might command a disproportionate amount of the Rebels’ attention.

“They spread the ball around,” O’Neal said. “I’ve seen six or seven kids run the ball for them, so that tells you they don’t have a go-to guy who’s exceptional, but they’re all good. They run the spread offense, and when they get backed up they may switch to the I (formation).”

Friday night’s game in Reeltown begins at 7 p.m.

With three of the regular season’s last four games being region contests, the Dadeville Tigers are entering the most important part of year.

The Tigers (3-3, 2-1 in Class 4A-Region 3) will hit the road to face the No. 3 Leeds Green Wave (5-2, 2-1 in Class 4A-Region 3) on Friday at 7 p.m.

Richard White, head coach of Dadeville, said Leeds is a very straightforward running team on the offensive side of the ball.

“They run the football. They’re big up front and they like to pound the ball,” White said. “That’s what they do. We’ve just got to find a way to put enough in the box to try to slow them down.”

The Tigers and Green Wave have only met one time in their history, with Dadeville upsetting then No. 1 and eventual 4A State Champion Leeds 20-14 last season.

But this year’s Tigers come into the matchup fresh off back-to-back losses in games that were determined in the fourth quarter.

In order to break the two-game losing streak, White said the Tigers are going to have to put together a complete football game and get a couple of breaks here and there.

“Play four quarters of football. We haven’t done it yet this year,” White said.

“Last week, we were winning the game until eight minutes left in the ballgame.

We were up 12-7 then they scored to make it 13-12, but we’re still in the ballgame. Then they scored again, but we’re still in the game. But it’s almost like we just gave up a little bit, and that’s not a good sign there. So, hopefully, if we learn to play four quarters of football and play defensively like we did on Friday night, we’ve got a chance to stay in the

ballgame and you never know what can happen.”

The next three games will be crucial for the Tigers, with all three contests being region matchups. With Region 3 currently jumbled with four teams having one loss in the region, White said it is essential that Dadeville start winning ballgames.

“They’re important. We’ve got to win now to make the playoffs,” White said.

“Right now, we’re in a four-way tie for second, third and fourth place. There’s four teams fighting for three (playoff) positions. So, right now, we’ve got to play better toward the end of the season to put ourselves in a position to make the playoffs.”

Rebels fall to Ranburne on the road in region game

By Mitch Sneed Record Editor

RANBURNE – There’s no doubt that Reeltown Rebels don’t quit. But a fourth quarter rally Friday night couldn’t overcome the deep hole they dug for themselves, as the Rebels fell 24-20 to the Ranburne Bulldogs.

Ranburne (5-1 overall, 2-1 in 2A Region 5) built a 24-7 lead and carried that into the fourth quarter. Despite two fourth quarter scores on passes from Takoreyon Edwards, Reeltown (3-3, 1-2 in 2A Region 5) ran out of time.

Dylan Wiggins was impressive for the Bulldogs. The senior passed for 197 yards and rushed for 81 yards on 13 carries to pace the Bulldogs to the win.

Ranburne, the defending region champion, looked like the odds-on favorite to repeat Friday night. The Bulldogs took the opening kickoff and traveled 75 yards on 11 plays with Owen Smith going the final 15 yards on an inside reverse for the score.

Reeltown answered with a 61-yard drive of their own, with Edwards hooking up with William Bell for a 45-yard touchdown with 5:22 left in the first quarter.

Bell made a great catch and had to shake off two defenders on the way to the end-

zone.

Ranburne added a touchdown and a field goal to take a 17-7 lead into the half. The Bulldogs got a 1-yard touchdown run from Dalton Wiggins with 11:28 left in the half and Jake Howle booted a 21-yard field goal with 2:40 left in the second quarter.

Reeltown looked like it may cut the lead on the first drive of the second half as Cody Martin ripped two big runs to give the Rebels the ball at the Ranburne 19. But a Khoner Davis pass was picked off by Ranburne’s Logan Otwell to end the threat.

The Bulldogs added seven more points on the ensuing drive, with Dylan Wiggins hitting Jake Burson for a 16-yard touchdown with 10:19 left in the third period.

But Reeltown couldn’t seem to get anything going until the fourth quarter.

Ranburne did a good job throttling Martin for most of the night. The senior sprinter was limited to just 69 yards on 18 carries and was slowed late in the game with a leg injury.

In the fourth quarter, the Rebels drove

the ball 90 yards on 14 plays with Edwards hitting Jamon Matthews for a 5-yard touchdown with 4:51 to play, cutting the Ranburne lead to 24-14.

The Rebels failed on an onside kick attempt and were pinned deep at their own 2-yard line after a Ranburne punt. Reeltown went 98 yards quickly, with Edwards hooking up with Kiyaski Taylor for a 51-yard touchdown. Taylor was winded from the long run and the extra point failed, leaving the Rebels down 24-20.

The Rebels were again forced to try the onside kick, but Ranburne recovered and were able to run out the clock and hold on for the win.

The game was played in a heavy mist for most of the night, but it didn’t seem to hamper either team’s passing game.

The two teams combined for 443 yards through the air and four passing scores.

The game was marred by 19 penalties between the two teams, with Reeltown being flagged 10 times for 104 yards.

Ranburne had nine penalties for 95 yards, including three personal fouls and three clipping calls on long runs.

Tigers suffer 26-12 homecoming loss to region foe Munford

By David Granger Record Staff Writer

DADEVILLE – Munford lost its top rusher on its first offensive drive of the fourth quarter, but went on to score three unanswered touchdowns and put away Class 4A, Region 3 rival Dadeville to ruin the Tigers’ wet homecoming 26-12 Friday night at Tiger Stadium.

Dadeville fell to 3-3, 2-1 in region play, while Munford improved to 4-3, 2-2 in region play.

The Tigers took the lead in the game’s third quarter on a 12-play 99-yard drive capped by junior quarterback Margarius Buchanan’s 1-yard touchdown run. The Tigers’ attempt at a two-point conversion failed and Dadeville led 12-7 with 5:28 left in the third.

In what had grown to a heavy mist, Dadeville’s Tonney Marbury punted only 21 yards to the Munford 37 to set up the Lions’ go-ahead touchdown. Two plays netted

only two yards for the Lions but on thirdand-8, quarterback Avery Harris took advantage of a blown Tiger coverage, found Quintavius Elston running open across the middle and passed to the senior wideout for the easy 61-yard score. Another try for two failed and the Lions led 13-12.

“I don’t know what to say,” said Dadeville head coach Richard White. “They had missed opportunities and we had some missed opportunities. Missed tackles. We played defense better. We just couldn’t ever get our offense untracked.

That’s not a criticism of our quarterback or anything, we’ve just got a lot of young men that have got to get used to playing with a new guy under center because we’re definitely a different football team without

(injured Alabama commit Shawn) Jennings at quarterback.

“Anyway, I thought we had spurts. A 99-yard drive for a touchdown, that’s a positive.

We just got worn down in the fourth quarter, and hats off to Munford. They just kind of ran the ball and ran the ball and wore us down and finally busted one on us.”

Munford jumped out to a 7-6 halftime lead largely on strong running from senior running back Charles Smith who rushed for 117 on 18 carries, all but a few yards of that total in the first half. Smith opened the scoring with a 20-yard touchdown run over left tackle less than four minutes into the game. Elijah Thomas’ extra point made the score Munford 7, Dadeville 0.

“We knew going into tonight that Charles needed about 200 yards to go over 1,000 on the year,” said Munford head coach

William Smith. “I told him that I really wanted to see him get it tonight and it looked like he was on his way. But we held him out in the fourth quarter because of an injury. He hurt his hand and can’t really grip with it and we want to have it looked at to make sure it isn’t broken or anything.

“But I’m really proud of my guys. I love every one of them.

The schedule that we’ve played so far, I’d put it up against anybody’s. Anybody’s. But we feel like it’s just making us better.

Hopefully, tonight was an indication of that.”

Down 7-0, Dadeville cut the lead to 7-6 at the half on a 50-yard Buchanan pass to Devin Johnson on the first play of the second quarter. Buchanan’s attempt at the point-after sailed wide.

Munford had a first down inside Dadeville’s 20 on the Lions’ ensuing drive, but four downs netted only two yards and the Tigers’ took over on downs at their own 15.

Other than its touchdown, Dadeville’s deepest drive of the second half came in the fourth quarter when the Tigers drove to the Munford 21. A penalty against the Tigers made it firstand-10 from the Lions’ 29, but an interception of Buchanan by Munford’s Savion Hill stopped the drive on the next play.

The interception seemed to be the dagger in Dadeville’s heart as the Lions found paydirt on it’s next two drives, quarterback Harris doing the honors both times. His 13-yard run over left tackle to cap a fourplay 67-yard drive pushed the Lions’ advantage to 20-12 and the junior closed the scoring with a 23-yard run at left end to cap a five-play 53-yard march.

Dadeville travels Oct. 9 to play region foe Leeds, 5-1 and 2-1 in the region after Friday night’s 20-7 win over Handley.

Munford plays host to region foe Childersburg, 2-4 and 1-2 in region play after a 52-20 win over Holtville.

Shelbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk has paid dividends for Alabama

I

n 1986 Richard Shelby was a 50-year-old congressman from Tuscaloosa. He was elected to congress eight years earlier, after two successful fouryear terms in the Alabama State Senate. However, Shelby was ready to move up again. He was planning to run for the United States Senate.

Shelby had never lost a political race. He was six for six in races to represent his beloved Tuscaloosa and the people of West Alabama. He was a conservative Democrat, who had a stellar conservative voting record. He was safe in his U.S. House seat.

In fact, it appeared that the congressional seat was his for life. His decision to challenge an incumbent U.S. Senator was a gamble.

Shelbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friends cautioned him that a race for the U.S. Senate against an incumbent would be an uphill battle and he should not risk his safe congressional seat. However, Shelby was undeterred in his decision.

One factor that the average political observer was not aware of was that Shelby probably sensed that his congressional district was destined to be the first African American district after reapportionment in 1990. The tea leaves were correct. That is what happened to Shelbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 7th district.

Although it would be a daunting task to upset an incumbent U.S. Senator, Jeremiah Denton had written the book on how to lose a Senate seat during his six-year term. Denton was elected as Alabamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Republican senator since Reconstruction in 1980. He had been swept into office on the coattails of Ronald Reagan, who carried Alabama in a landslide.

Alabamians knew very little about Denton, except that he had been a naval officer and a well-known national POW in the Vietnam War. His patriotic POW position sold well in Alabama, especially with Reagan headed to the White House.

Denton let it be known early that he wanted to be the moral police chief of the U.S. Senate. He clearly wanted to be the point man and most ardent voice for

morality, chastity and antiabortion issues. He was not interested in bringing home any bacon for Alabama or fixing any potholes. He actually bragged that he was a national U.S. Senator and not an Alabama U.S. Senator, thus openly signaling that we would only have one U.S. Senator, Howell Heflin, to fight for our interests in Washington.

The examples of constituent neglect and disinterest by Denton are too numerous to recant, but a few examples will give you an idea of his cavalier attitude toward reelection. Each year the Alabama Farmers Federation sends an entourage of 200 to 300 of the most prominent farmers in the state to meet with and lobby their senators and congressmen on federal issues affecting farmers. These men are the most respected leaders and centers of influence in their counties. Heflin and the other congressmen literally met them at the airport to court them.

They would have breakfast and dinner with them.

However, these farmers had to have an appointment with our â&#x20AC;&#x153;National Senatorâ&#x20AC;?

Denton. They arrived at his office at the appointed time.

All 300 of them were kept waiting 2 1/2 hours, then an aide came out to tell them that Denton was too busy dealing with national issues and did not have time to meet with them. One of the wealthiest and most prominent men in the state called Denton six times to simply express his opinion on an issue. Denton is yet to call him back. Thus, he vowed to give Dentonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opponent all the money he needed to beat Denton.

In addition to not returning phone calls, Denton never answered letters from constituents, even heartfelt handwritten notes of interest on federal legislation.

He was basically considered a nut in Washington and was consistently ranked the most ineffective senator in

Many a small thing

has been made

the 100-member Senate. He made colossal blunders in the 1986 campaign. He said he was too busy to come home and campaign and kiss babies.

Shelby beat Denton but it was close. Shelby had to spend some of his personal money the last week of the campaign to carry out the upset. Alabama has been the better for Richard Shelbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1986 gamble. He has been our Senator for 30 years, having been reelected in 1992, 1998, 2004, and 2010. He will be easily reelected to a 6th six-year term next year.

See you next week.
