Budget passed, roof work bid approved

By DONALD CAMPBELL Staff Writer

Dadeville has a brand new budget to work under for the upcoming fiscal year, while the roof at city hall will be receiving some much-needed repair work soon after the council took action on both matters at Tuesday night’s council meeting.

“It’s a balanced budget,” Mayor

Wayne Smith said. “I want to thank each of our council members, our city clerk Ms. (Debbie) Minor and all of our department heads for working so hard on this.”

After Smith offered up his thanks for everyone’s contributions, the council approved the budget for fiscal year 2019 in a unanimous vote.

Councilman Dick Harrelson said the bids received for work on the city hall

roof had been opened last Thursday and, despite some initial confusion on if some of the contractors had the proper insurance to do the work, all were found to be compliant. After a brief discussion, the council passed a motion and approved a related resolution, awarding the contract to a company from Sylacauga to complete the work for a total of $16,500.

“I want to commend you, Mr.

Harrelson and you, Ms. Minor, for your hard work in getting this done,” Smith said.

Harrelson mentioned he has been informed there is also an issue with the roof at the Dadeville Fire Department building, with new screws needed to stop leaks. The council approved empowering Harrelson and Minor to accept bids for this project.

Price pleads guilty to shooting man on lawnmower

Family members of Elbert Clyde Wilson gathered in the courtroom of Judge Tom Young to hear Franklin Nathan Price Jr. plead guilty to Wilson’s murder.

Price pleaded guilty to reckless murder and was sentenced to 30 years in prison. As part of the plea, Price will have to pay a yet to be determined restitution, something he Price mentioned to Wilson’s family in the courtroom.

“There is one thing I would like to say,” Price said as he turned to face the victim’s family. “Restitution, that is material money. It comes every day and goes every day.

A man’s life I took – I am very, very sorry. I am so sorry for y’all’s loss.”

Assistant district attorney Kevin Hall told the court what evidence would show on the day of Wilson’s death.

“On or about April 20, 2016, the victim in this case was shot by a .22 caliber rifle,” Hall said. “During the response to the incident and initial investigation, Mr. Price gave police erroneous information of a red vehicle that was never recovered and no record of the vehicle was ever recovered.”

Library Notes

Police Reports

Have you ever read a book which you absolutely hated, but everyone else loved?

Would you demand no one read that book because you thought the cussing was too much or it was anti-LGBT? That is what happens to books every year. Challenges to remove the books from libraries, either public or school, hinder our rights to read whatever we choose.

A challenge is an attempt to remove or restrict materials based upon the objections of a person or group. A banning is the removal of those materials.

Challenges do not simply involve a person expressing a point of view. Rather, they are an attempt to remove material from the curriculum or library, thereby restricting the access of others. As such, they are a threat to freedom of speech and choice.

Drop in to help us celebrate Banned Books Week at the Library this week, Sept. 23-29.

Banned Books Week is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. It highlights the value of free and open access to information. Banned Books Week brings together an entire community in shared support of the freedom to seek and express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular.

Powering Up After an Outage When the power goes out, we expect it to be restored within a few hours. But when a major storm or natural disaster causes widespread damage, extended outages may result.

Our line crews work long, hard hours to restore service safely to the greatest number of consumers in the shortest time possible. Here’s what’s going on if you find yourself in the dark:

STATIONARY GENERATOR: An approved generator transfer switch, which keeps your house circuits separate from the electric co-op, should be installed by a professional.

PORTABLE GENERATOR:

1. High-Voltage Transmission Lines: Transmission towers and cables that supply power to transmission substations (and thousands of members) rarely fail. But when damaged, these facilities must be repaired before other parts of the system can operate.

Plug appliances directly into the outlet provided on the generator.

2. Distribution Substation: A substation can serve hundreds or thousands of consumers. When a major outage occurs, line crews inspect substations to determine if problems stem from transmission lines feeding into the substation, the substation itself or if problems exist further down the line.

Set up and run your generator in a well-ventilated area outside the home. Make sure it’s out and away from your garage, doors, windows and vents. The carbon monoxide generated is deadly.

3. Main Distribution Lines:

Use a heavy-duty extension cord to connect electric appliances to the outlet on the generator.

If the problem cannot be isolated at a distribution substation, distribution lines are checked. These lines carry power to large groups of consumers in communities or housing developments.

Start the generator ďŹ rst before connecting appliances.

CALL (877) 456-8732 to report an outage

4. Tap Lines: If local outages persist, supply lines (also known as tap lines) are inspected. These lines deliver power to transformers, either mounted on poles or placed on pads for underground service, outside businesses, schools and homes.

5. Individual Homes:

Tallapoosa River Electric Cooperative s TREC COOP

If your home remains without power, the service line between a transformer and your residence may need to be repaired. Always call to report an outage to help line crews isolate local issue.

Narcotics

continued from page A1

White said the task force stays busy in the war against illegal narcotics throughout Tallapoosa County, averaging 600 cases per year. Over the past two years, he said the task force has seized drugs with a total street value of approximately $800,000 and more than $100,000 in cash.

“Atlanta is a major hub for the drugs we see in our area,” White said.

Much of the presentation from the task force members revolved around the different kinds of narcotics they encounter throughout the county.

Beginning with marijuana, referred to by the task force members as a gateway drug, the task force members then delved into many of the manmade narcotics that can not only be extremely addicting, but also harmful and potentially even fatal to users.

“THC is the chemical in marijuana

that gives you the high,” White said.

“There are so many different forms of it now, including synthetic marijuana or spice.”

Along with spice, another kind of synthetic is dab, which is made into a kind of wax and can be inserted into certain kinds of e-cigarettes.

The problem with some synthetic marijuana is that, while marijuana produced naturally from the cannabis family of plants contains only 25 percent THC, synthetic marijuana can hold up to 75 percent THC, leading to its increased danger.

Among other key drugs making their presence felt in Tallapoosa County include cocaine, crack, heroin, methamphetamine and opioids.

“Alabama is one of the top states in the country for opioid prescriptions,” White said. “Other pharmaceuticals are getting abused too.”

What makes opioid addiction even

more dangerous, according to the officers, is a number of addicts turn to heroin when opioid medications run out. Drug dealers, wanting to make their product even more potent and easier to cut, will use fentanyl as a cutting agent. Being 100 times more potent than morphine, those using heroin cut with fentanyl can suffer from serious health effects or even die from taking the drug. Some have even taken to using carfentanyl, 100 times more potent than regular fentanyl and usually used for tranquilizing elephants, as a cutting agent.

When describing meth manufacturing, the task force members showed some of the ingredients used to make the drug, including cold medicine, lye-based drain cleaner, lithium taken from batteries and other various chemicals harmful to humans.

Working to combat illegal nar-

cotics usage, White and the other officers said the task force hosts drug take back days twice a year, where area residents can drop off old medications with no questions asked. In between these take back days, there are also take back boxes at Hometown Pharmacy and the Tallapoosa County Courthouse Annex in Alexander City and the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Office in Dadeville.

Following the meeting, the Kiwanians left the meeting full of information and a better understanding of where things stand in regards to narcotics throughout Tallapoosa County.

“I learned how this is still truly a big problem in our county,” Tony Johnson said.

Gabby Witherington added, “It’s disturbing to see how, when (those combating drug problems) attack one, how it evolves because of that.”

Council

continued from page A1

The Dadeville City Council also handled the following items Tuesday night: • Minutes from the Sept. 11 meeting were approved.

• Councilwoman Teneeshia GoodmanJohnson brought up issues with intersections on Fulton Street not being entirely level.

Smith said, with utility and water lines under the intersections, it would be expensive to complete the work, but the city will continue to consider it.

• Johnson also mentioned the water board held a specialcalled meeting recently and approved a budget for next year. Just like the city’s general budget, she said the water board budget was balanced.

• Smith said ALDOT has asked for a delay on the courthouse square project. With this, he estimated it will be late December or early

January before bids will be let out.

• Resident Raphord Farrington mentioned there will be a mulcher and an herbicide specialist set up in the parking lot across from city hall Saturday at 9 a.m. Local residents will be welcome to get information from these individuals and schedule appointments regarding controlling invasive plants like kudzu or privet.

• Councilwoman Brownie Caldwell said the gas board has purchased a new truck and is working on approving its budget.

• Caldwell also said she thought it was great to see local citizens getting out and cleaning up a problem trash spot on Fulton Street, though she also said she received a call about another issue area on Young Street near Creation Plantation.

• Smith said the nuisance and burned-

out property issue was on the way to further moving forward.

• City attorney Robin Reynolds said he had been in court in Etowah County Tuesday morning regarding an appeal on paving work recently completed on Highway 280, on which the City of Dadeville was named a defendant.

Reynolds said the judge dismissed the appeal, adding the city will look at asking for the entity that filed the suit and appeal to pay attorneys fees.

• The council approved a motion not to purchase an ad in the upcoming Dadeville Magazine.

• Smith reminded the

Beware of scams

S

ome scams can be hard to recognize, but if you’re cautious and look out for red flags, you can catch them right off the bat.

Alexander City resident Robert Stone was quick-witted when he received a notice recently claiming he was entitled to a sum of nearly $50,000.

Stone, 86, said, “The red flags went up.”

A phony letter from an organization called TrustNet asked Stone to call an Edward Young and deposit a $985.20 check, and for him to give Young his banking information to gain access to funds to “cover the taxes.”

The check had no name listed as to who it could be from and although it looks official, there is no security information on the back such as the micro-printing in the border or a visible logo when viewed at an angle.

In light of this, we want to take this opportunity to share some things you can do to avoid being taken advantage of in a scam like this.

• Never pay for anything you supposedly won.

• Never fall prey to offers that try to pressure you to act quickly and fail to give you adequate documentation.

• Watch out for callers or offers that emphasize the need for secrecy.

• Beware of any requirement of money up front.

• Verify all offers or demands by insisting on information in writing and check all numbers by any means possible.

• Always question any offer or call that has the requirement of hard to track payment method, like cashier’s check or wired money.

• Never supply your personal or back account information to people you don’t know, especially over the phone.

Be smart and protect yourself from scammers. There is no end to the ways they come up with to make you a victim.

Sexual assault is against American values Our Mission

W

e can debate all day about Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Professor Christine Blasey Ford and whether or not a sexual assault occurred when they were both back in high school. But what is most disturbing is the growing number of people, even women, who are excusing such behavior, or willing to overlook it in this confirmation battle.

A panel of women on CNN discussed the issue of whether Mr. Kavanaugh forced himself upon Ms. Ford at a party when they were in high school. Some on that panel sought to defend Kavanaugh for his actions. “‘I mean, we’re talking about a 15-year-old girl, which I respect. I’m a woman. I respect. But we’re talking about a 17-year-old boy in high school with testosterone running high.

Tell me, what boy hasn’t done this in high school?’

Gina Sosa asked on the CNN panel when asked her thoughts on the accusation.” “‘How can we believe the word of a woman of something that happened 36 years ago? This guy has an impeccable reputation. There is nobody that has spoken ill will about him,’ Lourdes Castillo de la Peña said on the panel. Ms. Castillo de la Peña later indicated that she would continue to support the nominee even if the allegations proved to be true.”

A smear, pure and simple

enate Democrats seeking to derail Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination knew they had a problem.

In other prominent cases of the #MeToo era, multiple victims had come forward to corroborate each other’s stories and present a pattern of predatory behavior. But in Kavanaugh’s case, not only was there no corroboration for Christine Blasey Ford’s accusations, no other women had come forward to accuse him of misconduct.

Democrats needed another victim.

Enter, Deborah Ramirez, a former Yale classmate of Kavanaugh’s. She apparently didn’t want to accuse Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her at a college party, but as Ronan Farrow, co-author of the New Yorker article with Jane Mayer in which Ramirez makes her stunning accusation, admitted on ABC News’ “Good Morning America,” she “came forward because Senate Democrats began looking at this claim. She did not flag this for those Democrats.”

Why didn’t she want to accuse Kavanaugh? Maybe it’s because she wasn’t sure it was him. Ramirez, the New Yorker said, was “hesitant to speak publicly, partly because her memories contained gaps because she had been drinking at the time of the alleged incident,” the article said. She told the magazine that during the party “she was on the floor, foggy and slurring her words.” The New York Times, which also looked into her allegations, writes that before coming forward, Ramirez “contacted former Yale classmates asking if they recalled the incident and told some of them that she could not be certain Mr. Kavanaugh was the one who exposed himself.”

But according to The New Yorker, “after six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney, Ramirez said that she felt confident enough of her recollections to say

and the failure of a single witness to back her story, The MARC New Yorker went ahead and published her sensational, THIESSEN hesitant, uncorroborated Columnist account anyway — a stunning breach of journalistic ethics.

This was a story even The that she remembers” what New York Times deemed not Kavanaugh allegedly did. fit to print. It is a smear, pure “Confident enough?” and simple.

What happened in those six There is no pattern days? It appears Ramirez had here of bad behavior by to convince herself — or be Kavanaugh toward women. convinced.

The only pattern of bad Given her hesitancy, surely behavior is the Democrats’ The New Yorker found some shameful willingness to eyewitness corroboration destroy a person’s reputation before going to press? based on unsubstantiated Nope. “The New Yorker has allegations. This new attack not confirmed with other on Kavanaugh reeks of eyewitnesses that Kavanaugh desperation. There is no was present at the party,” the evidence to back Ramirez’s article said. The New York claims, just as no evidence Times reports it also tried has emerged to corroborate to verify Ramirez’s account Ford’s account.

came to town.

“It has been a long time – I have no idea,” Morgan said. “We have been living here in Camp Hill for 53 years.

Hollis Moore is the one who got me to sign up.”

The newcomer to town, York joked with Morgan about what they could do now they have turned in their fire pagers and radios.

“With retirement from the fire department, you can travel,” York said laughingly.

The two never received a penny for their valiant efforts.

What seems like a lot of free time for Morgan and York is already taken up.

“I have a business now,” York said.

“It is going OK. It is paying all the utility bills. It is tough keeping up with taxes. There is city tax, county tax, state tax. I have file monthly. I keep everything on paper.”

York also served as a council member for Camp Hill for two years and served four years with the fire department.

For Morgan, it just means one less thing to do and maybe some extra sleep but he is still busy.

“Well, I am going to do what I have always done,” he said. “I have been in ditches with my son. We put in septic systems, move dirt with a dozer and backhoe. I am not changing much. Just giving up a little. I enjoyed it, but I am about to be 79 years old. It’s time.”

Morgan also helps his son with a pumpkin patch and farm.

Morgan recalled a fire he would never forget.

“They burned the bridge at Slaughters Crossing,” he said. “We went over there and put out the fire. We went back over to check on things. We had put water on the bank. It must of have been 75 feet down. I went down the embankment thinking there was no slack in the hose.

Well, I was wrong and went sliding. I was covered in mud.”

Neither were around for the most recent save of the Camp Hill Volunteer Fire Department – a puppy named Tomato.

Tomato’s owner was at Monday’s monthly fire department meeting to thank those who saved her beloved pet.

“I was out one evening and came home about 9:30 one night,” Heidi Carroll said. “I was calling my dogs Big George and little Tomato. Well, Big George came up but I didn’t see little Tomato. I was walking around and turned around to start back inside when I saw Tomato. He was stuffed inside the bracing of a super narrow and tough appliance dolly. In play with George he stuck his head, shoulders and one arm through the dolly. He started to swell.

There was no way he was going to get out. I was just in a panic. I just called 911 and they came out. They employed the ‘Jaws of Life.’”

Volunteers used the equipment to cut the bracing of the dolly allowing the puppy to be freed.

“Within minutes he was himself and playing again,” Carroll said. “Chief Berry did not laugh me out of town.”

But Berry had to change his story for York and Morgan before the night could

end.

“Y’all can retire,” he said. “But

remember first you have to get two replacements each.”

Price murder, Price spoke to The Record on the scene.

“I was sitting on my front porch drinking coffee and I saw a red, older Ford Ranger pickup stop right there in the road and shoot that man,” Price said in April of 2016. “I heard the pop, just one time.

The man fell back and the lawnmower cut off and I said ‘What the hell.’ I couldn’t believe what I saw.”

Tuesday in court, Price recalled the event.

“I remember firing the rifle,” Price said. “I was totally intoxicated.”

Hall said the rifle was found using a search warrant in the woods behind Price’s residence.

According to Hall, in 2016, Price offered a statement, “He discharged the weapon.

His story was he was shooting at a rabbit and it must have ricochet.”

Hall said the bullet recovered from Wilson

continued from page A1

was not deformed.

“The bullet taken from Mr. Wilson’s body was intact,” Hall said.

“It was not mangled, consistent with being fired in a straight line of travel from the end of a barrel to the body. There were no ricochet marks or anything like that. It was completely intact.”

Price had two burglary charges

dismissed, though he did pay restitution in the amount of $2081 to settle them.

Mitch Gavin was appointed to represent Price in the murder and burglary cases.

The Wilson estate had previously filed a wrongful death suit against Price using attorney Greg Varner.

New Site Mayor Phil Blasingame, center, town councilman Billy Daniel, second from left, and town councilman Michael East, fourth from right, state Rep. Mark Tuggle, third from left, state Sen. Tom Whatley, fifth from right, and representatives from the Coosa Valley Resource Conservation and Development Council celebrate the effort which made the playground behind New Site Town Hall possible. The RC&D also presented the town with a $10,000 check, grant money the town used to purchase the equipment with.

and install the playground.

“We’re proud of our community out here,” Blasingame said. “We applied for the grant

and wanted to put this playground in. Billy (Daniel) took this on as his personal project.

“We have a lot going on

for this year without the grant.”

Blasingame said Tuggle and Whatley were instrumental in backing the

up here. However, if it had not been for your grant, we could not have done this. We wanted to do this, but it wasn’t in the budget

grant application, while also thanking Terry Martin, who is also part of the RC&D, in making sure he knew grants for projects like this were out there.

Council executive director Heidi Richards said the Coosa Valley council is one of nine councils throughout the state helping with projects like the New Site playground. While the councils have a number of differences, they also have a number of similarities in trying to help communities move forward. Along with the playground, the group has helped boost agriculture awareness in Tallapoosa County and improving outdoor classrooms for local schools during the past fiscal year.

“We try to be wise stewards of your money,” Richards said.

Whatley and Tuggle both expressed how good it was to see everyone working together to bring plans and ideas like this to fruition.

“You always find a way to make it work,” Whatley said.

Tuggle added, “The RC&D has been really good about this. I’d do anything for Tallapoosa County.”

Along with the playground, Tuggle said he was excited to see New Site making progress on bringing a health clinic and pharmacy to town.

“The clinic and pharmacy is a landmark thing for us,” Blasingame said.

Record The

Special teams lead Auburn to victory STAFF REPORT TPI Staff

It’s easy to forget about special teams.

It’s rare you see a big play in the return game and aside from a game-winning field goal, the only time you hear about the kicker, the punter or the coverage teams are when they’re not doing their job.

But since the beginning of the season, Auburn special teams coordinator Larry Porter has been preaching to his guys if you make plays on special teams, you will win games. Between a blocked punt, multiple long punt returns and a 96-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, Saturday’s 34-3 win over Arkansas was a prime example of the impact special teams can have on a game.

“Really, a lot of teams just leave those plays out there,” sophomore cornerback Jordyn Peters said. “They’re plays that nobody really pays attention to. But in the long run, they do add up. So we have to go out there with the mindset that every play counts, just like offense and defense, because it does on special teams.

“Every day in practice it’s pounded in our head that we’ve got to make a play on special teams. Not offense and defense, just special teams. Every day. Gamechanging plays.”

Peters was the one who got a hand on a punt late in the first half. Because of the deflection, the ball traveled only 8 yards where it was picked up by Auburn linebacker K.J. Britt and returned inside the Arkansas 10-yard line. A few plays later, Jarrett Stidham ran in for a touchdown to extend Auburn’s lead to 17-0.

Between the two returns from Davis and the one from Britt, Auburn finished with 95 punt return yards ̾ the most in an SEC game since Tennessee in 2013 (127) and the most in any game since Louisiana Tech in 2014 (129).

“It creates a spark for everyone,” Davis said. “It’s like ‘OK, now we can get something going.’ It gets everybody in a rhythm, gives everybody that confidence that ‘Boom, we got one. Now let’s go finish.’”

On the flip side of that, Auburn punter Arryn Siposs also enjoyed a career day Saturday. The sophomore, who arrived in July, averaged 47.2 yards per punt on his five punts. He also kicked one 60 yards, a new career long for the native of Australia.

So no, not everybody pays attention to the special teams. Sometimes, they can lose a game. But on Saturday, they played a major role in helping Auburn win.

“It showed out today,” Noah Igbinoghene said.

Tua continues to shine as No. 1 Alabama handles Texas A&M

No. 1 Alabama (4-0, 2-0) beat No. 22 Texas A&M (2-2, 0-1) 45-23 Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Sophomore quarterback Tua Tagovailoa led the Tide on offense with a career-best five touchdowns, four passing and one rushing. He threw for a careerhigh 387 yards on 22-of-30 passing.

The completions and attempts are also new career highs. His four touchdown passes equal his previous career high.

His passing yardage total also ties for the fifth-best performance in school history.

Alabama had three players with 70-plus receiving yards, including sophomore wide receiver Henry Ruggs III, (84 yards and a touchdown), sophomore wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (78 yards) and junior tight end Irv Smith Jr. (74 yards). Senior tight end Hale Hentges had two catches for 29 yards with both going for touchdowns. On the ground, senior Damien Harris led the way with 52 yards on seven carries.

On defense, the Crimson Tide came away with seven sacks, led by senior defensive end Isaiah Buggs, who finished the game with three sacks and seven tackles. Sophomore linebacker Dylan Moses led the Tide with nine total tackles, including five solo.

The Tide offense picked up right where it left off in the second half as Tagovailoa guided UA all the way down the field for a seven play 80-yard drive, capped off by junior running back Josh Jacobs going in untouched from three yards out. With Joseph Bulovas’ kick, the Crimson Tide led 38-13 with 10:03 to go in the third.

Following the Bulovas kick, the Tide held the 45-16 advantage with 2:01 left in the third.

Texas A&M closed the gap with an 11-play, 88-yard drive that culminated in the Aggies touchdown with 7:36 left in the game, putting the score at a 45-23 final.

FAMILIAR FACES File / The Record

Dadeville has won seven of the last eight meetings with Elmore County, but the Panthers are off to a 3-1 start.

Tigers travel to Elmore County for rivalry matchup

By LIZI ARBOGAST Sports Editor

Inconsistency has been the name of the game for Dadeville’s football team so far this season. The Tigers felt like they played one of their best games effort-wise against St. James, but it wasn’t enough for a victory last week.

“If we would’ve played against Bullock County the way we played against St. James, we would’ve beaten them,” Dadeville coach Richard White said. “But we just can’t be consistent in what we do.”

Big plays are what killed the Tigers against St. James a week ago, as the

Trojans gained 172 yards and three touchdowns on just four plays. And this week, the big play threat is ever present as Dadeville heads to Elmore County for a non-region matchup. DJ Patrick is an allaround threat for the Panthers (3-1); he is averaging more than 150 rushing yards per game and has scored 12 touchdowns so far this season — 10 rushing, one receiving and one punt return.

“I would expect them to get the ball to Patrick and get the ball in his hands,” White said. “He’s a track star athlete and he can run. We have to find a way to hem him up. We can’t let him get outside and use his speed because we don’t have

anybody that can catch him.”

Against St. James, Dadeville allowed Tony Amerson to rip off runs of 60-plus, 30-plus and two 40-plus yard gains, and White said that can’t happen again.

“We just can’t have breakdowns like that,” he said. “That just breaks your back.”

Luckily for the Tigers (2-3), despite those few plays, White said the defense played extremely aggressively and held a solid team to just four touchdowns.

But, because of the offensive struggles, the defense was on the field too long and got worn down by St. James’ offensive prowess.

Reeltown ushers in another tall task

By LIZI ARBOGAST Sports Editor

After passing its first real test of the season, Reeltown’s football team will be right back at it on Friday night when it plays host to Maplesville, which is ranked No. 3 in Class 1A in the most recent Alabama Sports Writers Association poll.

But it wasn’t an easy task for the Rebels to get past LaFayette a week ago.

The Bulldogs led by as many as 14 and 21-14 in the third quarter. But facing some adversity may have been just what the doctor ordered for Reeltown, which had blown out every opponent up to that point.

See REBELS • Page B2

Reeltown’s Eric Shaw (6) reaches out to try to stop a LaFayette player last week. Shaw and the Rebel defense will be up against another tough test when they host Maplesville on Friday.

Paving and striping at the Dadeville High School track has been completed.

South Carolina

Despite loss, Rangers see improvement

By DONALD CAMPBELL Staff Writer

Dadeville track now fully paved DONALD CAMPBELL Staff Writer

Athletes in the Dadeville High School cross-country and outdoor track programs now have a new facility to call home.

Paving on the high school track across the street from the football field has been completed.

“The surface of the track, it looks great,” DHS principal and track coach Chris Hand said. “It’s fantastic just to have a place of your own.”

The track has eight marked lanes, is paved with asphalt and will give the track and cross-country teams a place to practice.

“Cross-country practices there one day a week to work on their speed,” Hand said.

“They’re really excited about it, because they can get more accurate times on their speed. The track kids have been telling me how excited they are about it too.”

While the track has been completed, Hand said there are still a few other projects left to be finished. Key among these are installing pits for the long jump and high jump, as well as a space for the shot put.

Currently, there is no timetable on when these items will be completed, but Hand said the outdoor track season does not start until March, meaning there is still plenty of time for the work to be done. Along with

giving the Dadeville track team a nicer practice facility, Hand added the school will also be able to host track meets there once all the work is completed.

“We want to try and host two meets there, one in March and one in April,” he said. “We’re ecstatic to be getting the pits soon.”

Despite there still being work left, Hand feels having a paved track has made an immense difference.

“It has made the whole area look so much better,” he said. “I think this will definitely increase interest in track here.

It’s like a dream come true for us. We are very, very excited for this.”

Tigers “Offensively, we didn’t do hardly anything,” White said.

“We threw the ball at times and we had some bright spots, but most of it was three and outs, five and outs, stuff like that. We’re just not playing aggressive at times on special teams and offense, but I can’t say that about the defense. Our defense got after it, but again we gave up 27 points. We can’t give up 27 points and win ballgames.”

While quarterback Slade McCullers had run Dadeville’s

continued from page B1

offense efficiently and made the Tigers more of a dual-threat offense, there is still so much inexperience, especially up front and at the running back position, so it’s been hard to keep anything going consistently.

Dadeville also installed an entirely new offense this offseason, and while the new style has worked better with the Tigers’ personnel, it’s also been an obvious adjustment.

“Anytime offensively you start over with something new and you’re not blessed with great

athletes, it takes a while,” White said. “I didn’t think it would take five games, but that has something to do with execution.

We’ll miss a block here, we’ll make the wrong read there; it’s just little things like that.”

Dadeville will be going up against a shaky Elmore County defense though. The Panthers have given up an average of 36.6 points per game after shutting out Marbury in their season opener.

However, with two straight losses under their belts, the

Tigers aren’t taking anyone lightly.

“We need something good to happen for us so we can build off it confidence-wise and get some confidence with what we do,” White said. “Confidence comes with preparation and getting out there and working your tail off. Confidence comes from grinding. One of my assistants said (Monday) was the best practice we’ve had all season, so it could be that the light bulb is starting to come on for them.”

Despite losing 62-52 Friday night against North River Academy in Tuscaloosa, Lyman Ward football coach Roland Bell felt his team is continuing to make progress and move forward.

“We basically tell them that we want them to be perfect on every single play,” Bell said. “We had a number of imperfections Friday night.”

These imperfections included the defense losing containment and giving up several big plays, while the offense had five touchdowns called back due to penalties. Despite the issues seen Friday night, Bell felt things are improving as a whole for the Rangers.

“We’re getting better. We are definitely showing good improvement,” Bell said. “(Quarterback) Joseph Reese had another good standout game and (running back) Bogdan Maples, he’s getting better every week. He’s got the speed and he’s got the moves.”

Bell said one issue the Rangers face is that many of the players have never played before, or have only had limited experience with the game.

As such, Bell said he focuses on the fundamentals a lot with his players, making sure they get the basics down as they prepare for each game.

“I feel confident I will be able to get them there,” he said.

As Lyman Ward prepares for its next game and home opener, Bell said there are key issues on both the offense and the defense needing addressed for the Rangers to be able to win.

“Defensively, we’ve got to work mainly on containment on the edges, make our guys force the other team to cut back inside, Bell said.

“Offensively, we have to work with our running game and getting our receivers to run the proper routes.

We’ve got to have a little more deception on our routes.”

Rebels “I want to see these guys face adversity to see how we handle it because that’s what defines you,” Reeltown coach Matt Johnson said. “Heck, anybody can jump around and play ball when you’re up three touchdowns, but how will you act when the bullets are flying? I wanted some adversity, but I don’t know if I wanted that much.”

Although the Rebels (5-0) will be taking a break from Class 2A Region 6 action to host the Red Devils (3-1), they won’t have a timeout from steep competition.

Maplesville is a perennial powerhouse, having won three 1A state championships in the last four years. It has won eight straight region championships and its only loss of the season comes

continued from page B1

at the hands of Linden, which is ranked No. 2 in Class 1A. “You turn on their film and it’s like a well-oiled machine,” Johnson said. “They have two really good running backs (Christin Brown) and (Ryan Morrow). Brown is a really good looking athlete; he’s a big kid and he runs well.

“They’re extremely well coached and fundamental up front on the offensive line, which makes it tough. They’re going to be in the right spots.”

On film, Johnson has seen a similar style offense from Maplesville the Rebels put on the field. While they’ll try to spread defenses out, the Red Devils are a run-heavy team. They’ll also try some run-pass options and some

zone options.

“They really just look around and see who’s making a mistake and take advantage of it,” Johnson said.

The Rebels are expecting to see multiple defensive fronts from Maplesville, and Johnson couldn’t stop naming individuals who stood out to him on the Red Devils’ defense. “(Timothy Bradley), (Brown), (Tristen Thetford), (Robert Sheffield) and I’m sure there’s some linemen in there who I can’t think of off the top of my head,” Johnson said. “They’re a good ball club and they’ve beaten some good teams.”

But the Rebels have the threatening rushing duo of Cameron Faison and Keke

Hughley who should be able to counter Maplesville’s defense.

Faison returned from an injury, having missed one game, and had 16 carries for more than 80 yards and returned a kickoff for a touchdown a week ago.

Johnson is also hoping having home-field advantage is going to be key this week. Especially because of Reeltown’s success so far and the four-week wait for a home game, Johnson said the atmosphere inside Nix-WebsterO’Neal Stadium last week helped propel the Rebels to victory.

“Man, that was great; the atmosphere was unbelievable,” Johnson said. “I was extremely excited about our fans. It was loud.

It was an exciting game. The band and cheerleaders, they all just did

a remarkable job and that makes a difference. The kids definitely get up a little bit when you’re home crowd is that enthusiastic.”

But one big thing Johnson will be looking for this week is a complete game from his Rebels.

It’s tough to overcome a twotouchdown deficit in any game, but getting that far behind twice in a row could prove costly.

“We gotta trust what we do immediately when we walk through the gate,” Johnson said.

“We gotta come out there, not try to feel people out but play our ball.

We can’t focus on the opponent so much.”

Reeltown is looking for its first 6-0 start since 1991 when it went 14-1, losing only the state title game.

Reaching more than 22,000 households in Tallapoosa and Elmore counties The Dadeville Record

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be wavering over an issue about which you undoubtedly think you are right. You push in various areas of your life. Take care of a problem; do not backpedal -- just resolve it. Continue in this way until you know what to do. Tonight: Full of energy and optimism.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A diÉ&#x2030;cult person or situation might cause you to wonder. You could be unsure about the best way to handle this matter. If you have questions, go within yourself to Ã&#x201E;nd answers.

Understand that you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always second-guess others. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You naturally zero in on your priorities. Deciding to head in a diÉ&#x2C6;erent direction would be diÉ&#x2030;cult.

No matter how well you know a loved one, he or she still is capable of surprising you. Clearly, you need to make the Ã&#x201E;rst move. What is stopping you? Tonight: Think before you leap.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) No matter which way you turn, you feel pressured. Others want to listen to what you are thinking. You need to let a partner know that you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t continue spending as you have been. Understand your priorities.

Be careful with a controlling person.

Tonight: Do your thing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Defer to someone who appears to have a greater understanding of what is going on. You might want to jump right over this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s need for control. If you stay out of the way of others, you will be able to do what you want. Tonight: Reach out to a loved one who has news to share.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) When handling a money issue with a partner, look at the big picture. This person might be so into the here and now that he or she cannot see past the obvious. A child could throw a tantrum because he or she feels as if he or she is not getting enough attention. Tonight: Be a duo.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might not be in the middle of all the action, yet you still feel the need to detach. The odd thing is that all of the activity could still be around you. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the answers that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeking, do not be depressed. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Ã&#x201E;ght city hall.

Tonight: Go with the Ã&#x2026;ow.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Passions run high. Because others seem preoccupied and not particularly helpful, you might have diÉ&#x2030;culty handling a personal matter. Know what is going on around you. If you can, defer to others by any means -- the waiting game will pay oÉ&#x2C6;.

Tonight: Maintain a low proÃ&#x201E;le.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Connect, talk and research. You have most of the day to come to a conclusion. A friend could be very diÉ&#x2030;cult and touchy. Be smart. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to push this person just to get positive feedback. Leave him or her alone. Trust your judgment. Tonight: Assume the lead.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Without intending to, you could be raining on someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parade.

However, if you proceed as you always have, you will Ã&#x201E;nd out soon enough who this person is. Be more aware of the power that you wield and how others react to it. Tonight: Be more direct and forthcoming.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out to someone at a distance, or be ready to dig in and do a lot of research. This person serves as a mentor for you. Remain optimistic and forthright when dealing with an unusual new topic. Make plans to take a vacation soon. Tonight: Relax at home.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You know what you want, and you know where you are heading.

A meeting could be provocative, causing your feelings to emerge.

You need to stay focused on what you want from a situation. Avoid a person who often gets involved in a power play. Tonight: Out with friends.

Public safety expo set for Oct. 2 in Alexander City

By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer

There is no need to worry next week when you see a large gathering of first responders at Strand Park in Alexander City.

“We are taking part in the 35th National Night Out,” Alexander City Police Department Capt. James Orr said.

“We are doing ours in conjunction with Crime Presentation Month in October. We are calling it a ‘Public Safety Expo.’”

The idea is to allow the community to come out and meet first responders in a relaxed environment.

“So many times when people meet a first responder it may be in a stressful situation,” Orr said. “This will be a very relaxed setting and we want them to feel comfortable and understand what we do and how we can help. We want to just meet, communicate and be neighborly. We want to invite all of our neighborhoods and residents to come out and have a meet and greet with our first responders.”

Orr said officers from the Alexander City Police Department, Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department, and Alexander City Fire Department, along with other first responders, churches and local government officials will have an opportunity to hand out safety information.

“This is a great opportunity to come out and meet and greet the first responders,” Orr said. “If they want to touch vehicles, they can put their hands on it. It is just a great learning opportunity for everyone.

National Night Out is designed to: • Heighten crime and drug-prevention and foster safety awareness; • Generate support for and participation in local anti-crime programs; • Strengthen neighborhood spirit and public safety-community partnerships; • Promote general safety in and around the home; and

File / The Record

Carson Williams of Alex City suited up in some gear from the Alexander City Special Response Team at a National Night Out in the past. This year’s public safety expo will be held Oct. 2 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Strand Park in Alex City. Organizers hope residents use this as an opportunity to meet area first responders in a relaxed environment.

• Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

The event will include more than just full-time first responders.

“A lot of our first responders are volunteers,” Orr said. “We have great volunteers and they would love to share what they do with everyone else.”

The event will also include ALEA’s Marine Patrol, the Alabama Forest Commission.

This year the Public Safety Expo will be Oct. 2 from 5 to 8 p.m., but it will be in a new location – Strand Park.

“We will be on the lower end of the park and will block off the street,” Orr said. “It is our first year there.”

There will be things for children at the event like a train ride, bouncy houses, Sonny’s Hotdogs and Kona Ice. “Everything is free,” Orr said. “We will have water too.”

Orr says the event is family friendly

and encourages those coming to the event to approach the first responders.

“Get to know them get familiar with them,” Orr said. “They would love to meet the families in our community.”

Orr said first responders welcome communication all the time when they are not responding to a call.

“We are always welcoming people to come in the department, walk around ask questions,” he said. “If you see an officer, go and speak to them.”

First responders getting new radio equipment Everyone pays it, the state 911 fee. It is on everyone’s phone bill, landline or cellphone.

First responders are seeing what those pooled funds can do, as many fire and police departments in Tallapoosa County are moving to digital radios and the new technology could save lives.

“Our walkie talkie system was awful,” Alexander City fire chief Reese McAlister said. “If we were to get a firefighter down trying to call out on it, it is likely it would not work.”

The new radios and technology means many who are used to listening to first responders radio traffic can not.

“People with scanners think we are not doing anything,” McAlister said. “The regular scanners don’t work.”

The new radios are being paid for through funds citizens pay ever month and are managed by the Tallapoosa County 911 Board.

“This is being done through 911 funds that the people in Tallapoosa County are paying for on their phone bill,” Tallapoosa County 911 coordinator Anita Haggerty said. “We are granting the radios to the departments. As they add more to their systems, they will have to pay for it.”

The idea behind the switch is so all first responders in Tallapoosa County can talk to one another if and when the need arises. The traffic is handled

through two 911 dispatch centers, one at the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department and the other at the Alexander City Police Department. From there, traffic is transmitted to radios in the field through a series of towers including two the 911 board has acquired – the old AT&T microwave towers in Goldville and Roxanna.

“The 911 board bought those towers several years ago have utilized them for the paging system for the volunteer fire departments but they now have a microwave system operating this digital system,” Haggerty said.

The board has been slowly rolling out the changes and working out the kinks at small departments in the county.

“It has been a big process,”

Haggerty said. “It has taken a while to build it out.

We can’t put people on until the system is built out.”

More departments will be added as the process goes.

“What we are lacking is enough frequencies,” Haggerty said. “In order to add on more departments, we have to get more capacity for the system.”

The process of switching to the digital radios started small.

“We started out with Eagle Creek, Buttston, New Site, Daviston and Paces Point fire departments,” Haggerty said.

“Paces Point was patched into the system with their own radios.

They had radios from a grant they received.”

Since then the fire departments in Camp Hill, Reeltown, Union

and Our Town/ Willow Point have been added. The Alexander City Police Department is also on the new digital system.

Haggerty said other departments will be added in the near future.

“What we are lacking are Dadeville, Jacksons Gap, New Site and Camp Hill police departments, along with the sheriff’s department,” Haggerty said. “We are also lacking Hackneyville, Dadeville and Jacksons Gap fire departments.”

McAlister is happy the board was able to furnish the funds to do this, as it likely would have meant his department would have spread it out over a few years.

“All of our radios went digital,” McAlister said. “We want to thank the E911 board, they paid for all of it.”

Annual festival, market set for Oct. 27

By CARMEN RODGERS Staff Writer

Saturday marked the first official day of fall and the Reeltown band boosters are making preparations to usher in the season with a day of community fun and entertainment.

The group has organized the annual Harvest Festival for Oct. 27 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. next to Reeltown Elementary School. This is the third annual Harvest Fest and Holiday Market and proceeds from this event will benefit the RHS marching band.

“Harvest Fest and Holiday Market is a fundraiser benefiting Reeltown’s Music Department,” event coordinator Jennifer Jarvis said. “It will include a variety of vendors for your shopping enjoyment, selling anything from arts and crafts to personalized clothing and accessories.”

Like most fundraisers, this event relies heavily on community involvement and contributions from local businesses and organizations.

“We are still seeking vendors, sponsors and entertainment,” Jarvis said.

Sponsorships and vendor spaces are open for registration and those interested are encouraged to sign up early because spaces will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis on the day of the event.

With some plans still in the works, organizers already have a long list of events planned for the Harvest Fest and Holiday Market that begin early that day.

File / The Record

Similar to last year’s Harvest Festival and Holiday Market, there will be plenty of activities for area children and attendees. The event is set for Oct. 27 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. next to Reeltown Elementary School.

“We will kick off the day with a car show from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. with a pancake breakfast being served,” Jarvis said.

The fun will continue until 6 p.m. with a multitude of games and activities, including bingo, a dunking booth, food and entertainment. There

will also be various raffles and contests throughout the day and winners will receive special prizes.

The event will also feature a special guest for the football fans.

“We will have a special guest appearance at 2 p.m. by Auburn University mascot Aubie the Tiger,”
