Vandalism of a historic location has led one Sumter County town to offer a $1,000 reward. On Thursday morning, residents of Mayesville woke up to find the new windows in the old J.F. Bland Stables busted out. “They were doing a good job repairing it, and then out of the blue, somebody came through and knocked windows out,” said Mayor Randolph Anderson. “I just don’t understand it. They had no regard for property. In my town of Mayesville, we look out for one another. It bothers me that someone who lives in our town would do this. I’m hoping it was no one in town that did it.” The building is undergoing renovations to become the Mary McLeod Bethune Learning Center, a community event and education location. The work is being funded by a $349,000 grant from a local private organization, the Mayesville Education Industrial Institute, said Bill Rhodes, town administrator. “This is terrible,” he said. “We were trying to do something nice. It was pure vandalism.” Insurance will pay for the replacement and repairs, he said.
“There is nothing to do but to keep going,” Rhodes said. The cost of the windows is estimated at $600, and a piece of sheet rock sustained an additional $80 in damage, according to reports from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. Both the Sheriff’s Office and the Mayesville Police Department are investigating. The following other buildings also sustained damage: • Two windows and the front door of The World End Time Harvest Ministries Church, $400; • The front door of the Hamp’s Soul Café, $200; and • Two windows and two glass screen doors of the Mayesville Laundromat, $400. The town is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. “Hopefully we’ll get some information and do what we have to do to get these people off the street,” Anderson said. “They don’t need to be on the streets if they go around doing that sort of stuff.” Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call Anderson at (803) 453-5358 or the Mayesville Police Department at (803) 720-6228. Reach Jade Anderson at (803) 774-1250.

Local firefighters use faith group to encourage, pray Sumter firefighters have a new outlet for spiritual encouragement in the recently founded local chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Firefighters.

2 arrested on drug charges after chase
Man hurt in apparent drive-by shooting
BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com
A stop at the corner store left a man with a bullet in his arm Wednesday night. The shooting reportedly happened about 11:57 p.m. when the victim stopped at a supermarket in the 1000 block of Manning Avenue. As he was walking into the store, the victim said a gray, four-door car driven by an unknown man passed by and someone fired eight to 10 shots at him. One of the shots reportedly struck the victim in the right arm. The victim was able to speak with officers at the scene and was transported to Tuomey Regional Medical Center by Emergency Medical Services. Video footage from the store’s security camera was pulled to see if the vehicle or its occupants could be identified.
Two men are facing drug charges after being tracked by a K-9 unit, but not before leading law enforcement on a car chase ending with a wreck behind a home on Granada Street. Larry O’Brian Archie, 25, of 4401 Reona Ave., is charged with possession of crack cocaine; simple possession of marijuana; second-degree burglary; failure to stop for blue lights; and driving under suspension, third offense. Donnie Jermaine Pack, 29, of 462 Robney Drive, is charged with possession of marijuana
with intent to distribute. At about 7 p.m. Tuesday, deputies from the Sumter County Sheriff ’s Office received a tip that a tan Chevrolet Tahoe was carrying drugs and weapons. DepuARCHIE ties spotted a vehicle matching the description on North St. Pauls Church Road, and when they attempted to stop the vehi- PACK cle, it accelerated and pulled away. After a short chase, the car reportedly left the roadway
and crashed behind the home. Two men then ran from the vehicle, and a foot chase began. Archie was spotted nearby entering a home in the 300 block of New Castle Street but immediately exited the house and was arrested. The residents of the home told deputies they had never seen the suspect before and he walked into their home without their consent. Near the spot where Archie was arrested, deputies reportedly found a plastic bag containing a “rock substance” suspected to be crack cocaine, and they also reportedly found suspected marijuana in his pants pocket.
A K-9 unit was called to the scene and eventually located Pack nearby. The suspect was reportedly carrying a gray and black book bag containing three bags of suspected marijuana, totaling 960 grams. He was also reportedly carrying a digital scale commonly used to weigh the drugs. Pack was also arrested on an outstanding Family Court bench warrant. Both men were transported to Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center. The Tahoe was towed from the scene and impounded by law enforcement. Reach Bristow Marchant at (803) 774-1272.

New charter school opens in Lee County BY RANDY BURNS Special to The Item BISHOPVILLE — Lee County has a new school. The Pee Dee Math, Science and Technology Academy opened Aug. 14 with 50 students in kindergarten through second grade. The new charter school is located in modular units on Doc’s Drive just off Bethune Highway and is a part of the South Carolina Public Charter School District. Director Keith Bailey, formerly of Darlington County, said the school is a product of about seven years of planning. “I guess it all started after I had some discussion with a group of concerned parents from Lee County who wanted more for their children,” Bailey said. “We want people to know we are a STEM school. The focus is science, technology, engineering and math.” The school also employs Principal Sabina Alexander, four highly certified teachers and two paraprofessionals. Several volunteers are on hand, providing valuable assistance, Bailey said. “We are all wearing differ-

The school complies with all S.C. Department of Education standards, he said. The school also utilizes national curriculums including Engineering is Elementary and Centerstage Science. Every classroom is equipped with a Promethean smartboard and new computers. Classroom size will remain small, Bailey said. Most classrooms currently have 10 to 15 students. The school will add staff as the enrollment increases. Bailey said the school will be able to accommodate as many as 120 students. The school also has its own bus, which should be on the road soon. “The bus cost us $20,000, and we have been able to raise all the money,” Bailey said.

The school’s revenue will be comprised of state Department of Education funding for the students enrolled at the school, grant funding and donations, he said. “We have an accounting firm that’s managing our funds,” he said. Breakfast and lunch are provided in a cafeteria. The school uses a national school program, Preferred Meals. Bailey and staff will soon develop a separate engineering lab in a modular unit that has just arrived at the school, he said. Bailey, who has a business background, said Alexander was chosen as principal after a national search. “We are really excited about having her (Alexander) at this school,” Bailey said. “She is going to be an outstanding instructional leader.” A native of North Carolina, Alexander is a summa cum laude graduate of North Carolina A&T State University and has graduate degrees in
educational leadership and specialist of education. “My No. 1 responsibility is to be the instructional leader at this school,” she said. “This morning, I spent some time serving as a co-teacher in a classroom with one of our teachers. I have to be able to model effective teaching.” Bailey and Alexander are both Lee County residents and have children enrolled at the charter school. “I want people to know that we are passionate about what we do here,” Bailey said. Alexander, who has two children enrolled at the school, also has two older children attending Robert E. Lee Academy. “I love it here,” she said. “People here are really friendly. The people at Robert E. Lee have been great to our family.” “We are going to work hard to develop a strong, positive relationship with the school district,” Bailey said. “That is a must. Most of our students will be going on to the Lee County schools. I will be meeting with the superintendent (Dr. Wanda Andrews) next week, and I look forward to working with her.”

Agencies prepare for school choice BY JAMIE SELF The State COLUMBIA — South Carolina Department of Revenue and education leaders told a Senate panel Wednesday that they are working on a smooth transition into the state’s first K-12 private-school choice program. But with 12 private schools currently cleared to participate, the S.C. Education Oversight Committee is working on a way to approve more schools more quickly before Jan. 1, when the program launches. Through the program, taxpayers can claim tax credits on their 2014 tax returns for donations made starting Jan. 1 to nonprofit organizations that provide privateschool grants to students with disabilities. The credits are available only for donations made through June 30, 2014, unless lawmakers extend the program. Three organizations plan on receiving donations and offering grants. Currently, twelve schools are eligible to enroll students who receive the grants when the program takes effect. More are taking steps to participate, Melanie Barton, Oversight Committee director, told the Senate panel. Barton said she is drafting an agreement that private-school associations can sign indicating that their member schools meet requirements to participate. Religious schools worried about government oversight likely will use that method for
seeking approval, she said. The panel, chaired by Sen. Wes Hayes, RYork, was tasked with reviewing the impact of a more expansive school-choice bill proposed by Sen. Larry Grooms, R-Berkeley. That bill has been sidelined temporarily as lawmakers move forward with the smallerin-scope private-school choice program passed as part of the state’s July 1 budget.

Trial lawyer Ron Motley dies at 68 BY MEG KINNARD The Associated Press COLUMBIA — Celebrated South Carolina lawyer Ron Motley has died at the age of 68, law partner Joe Rice confirmed Thursday. No cause of death was given for the trial lawyer, and funeral arrangements have not been announced. Motley served as lead counsel in lawsuits that ultimately yielded the largest civil settlement in U.S. history in which the tobacco industry agreed to reimburse states for smoking-related health care costs. As part of the Ness Motley firm, he also sued on behalf of asbestos victims and the families of the Sept. 11 terror-
ist attack victims. Motley’s practice underwent a transformation in 2003 when he and Rice formed the Motley Rice firm. The Mount Pleasant-based practice is one of the largest plaintiffs’ firms in the country. The name change was partly because 13 attorneys and about 40 support staff left to form a new firm, Richardson Patrick Westbrook & Brinkman, in 2002. The family of deceased South Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Julius “Bubba� Ness also sued the firm, saying the Ness portion of the name should be dropped since the practice was no longer connected to the family. Ness’ son-in-law, Terry Richardson, was among

the lawyers who left to form the new firm. On Thursday, Richardson remembered Motley — with whom he practiced for nearly 30 years — as a tenacious attorney who was a major figure in a time when plaintiffs’ law experienced a renaissance. “All lawyers start out believing you can change the world. Few of us ever do. But Ron is one that did,� Richardson said. “If there was no crisis at the moment, he would always create one.� Motley received numerous accolades, including highest honors from the South Carolina Association for Justice and the American Association for Justice. He also was a member of The Trial Lawyer 2012 Hall of Fame.

Iraq vets join ranks of craft beer business VIRGINIA BEACH (AP) — Two Iraq War veterans eager to slake a growing American thirst for craft beer are setting up a brewery less than a mile from the main runway for the Navy’s East Coast master jet base. Their beers have names such as “Jet Noise Double IPA� and “Pineapple Grenade Hefeweizen.� And their motto strikes a military chord: “Brewing With the Freedom We Fought For.� Young Veterans Brewing Co. is set to open in September in militaryheavy Hampton Roads. For the brewery president, Thomas Wilder, and the co-founder, Neil McCanon, the business was born of struggles the two endured after they returned to American soil in 2005 from their overseas assignments. The craft brewery is one of a growing corps popping up in Virginia and the nation. Virginia, which is celebrating its second craft beer month in August, has seen the industry grow from about 40 craft breweries last year to more than 60 in 2013. And many more are in the works. The 29-year-old Wilder spent more than a year in Iraq after joining the Army National Guard in 2003 right out of high school. He lost two close friends in a 2004 bombing at a base in Mosul that killed 22 people, including 18 Americans. Wilder was in Germany in surgery at the time of the bombing. “Being at war is tough, but you don’t realize how tough it is while you’re there,� Wilder said as the sound of F/A-18 fighter jets roared overhead from nearby Naval Air Station Oceana. Many vets face trouble re-orienting to normal jobs, finding adequate paying jobs or employ-

ment period after military service. Many also grapple with war wounds or invisible post-traumatic stress. Upon returning home, Wilder tried his hand at school, hoping to become a teacher. McCanon, 29, went through a revolving door of hirings and firings. But both knew they wanted to work for themselves. When they first experimented with a home brewing kit the high school friends from Virginia Beach received as a gift, Wilder said he was unfamiliar with craft beers. His knowledge then was limited to mass-produced domestic beers. But once he began brewing his own, he preferred his over all others. The pair hosted house parties offering up free beer to friends and family to test their creations. Now they hope their dream of finally opening a brewery will provide an opportunity to hire other veterans and give back to military-related charities. “For me, it’s sort of my way of showing that after service there’s more to do,� Wilder said. “For a lot of soldiers who come home, there’s a lot of trouble. I’ve been through that, and I know what that’s like.� The young veterans are joining ranks as the craft beer industry is
“seeing the edge of expansion,� noted McCanon, who joined the Army in 2003 and most recently was an Army Reserve drill sergeant. In Virginia, a budding interest in craft beer is helping brewers grow at a faster rate than the national average. And thanks to changes in state law, they are making an impressive impact on the economy. Production in Virginia grew nearly 37 percent to more than 84,000 barrels in 2012, more than double the national growth rate of 15 percent, according to the Brewers Association, the trade group for the majority of U.S. brewing companies. With more than 2,480 breweries nationwide, craft brewers make up a more than $10.2 billion industry that sold about 13.2 million barrels of beer in 2012.

Study seeks super agers’ secrets to brain health BY LINDSEY TANNER AP Medical Writer CHICAGO — They’re called “super agers” — men and women who are in their 80s and 90s but with brains and memories that seem far younger. Researchers are looking at this rare group in the hope that they may find ways to help protect others from memory loss. And they’ve had some tantalizing findings: Imaging tests have found unusually low amounts of age-related plaques along with more brain mass related to attention and memory in these elite seniors. “We’re living long, but we’re not necessarily living well in our older years, and so we hope that the SuperAging study can find factors that are modifiable and that we’ll be able to use those to help people live long and live well,” said study leader Emily Rogalski, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University’s cognitive neurology and Alzheimer’s disease center in Chicago. The study is still seeking volunteers, but chances are you don’t qualify: Fewer than 10 percent of would-be participants have met study criteria. “We’ve screened over 400 people at this point, and only about 35 of them have been eligible for this study, so it really represents a rare portion of the population,” Rogalski said. They include an octogenarian attorney, a 96-year-old retired neuroscientist, a 92-yearold Holocaust survivor and an 81-year-old pack-a-day smoker who drinks a nightly martini. To qualify, would-be participants have to undergo a battery of mental tests. Once enrolled, they undergo peri-

ABOVE: Don Tenbrunsel, 85, right, and Alex Wissman, soup kitchen volunteers, work at making lunches at St. Josaphat’s Church in Chicago on Aug. 1. Tenbrunsel is a “super ager,” participating in a Northwestern University study of people in their 80s and 90s with astounding memories. So far the research has found scientific evidence that brains in this elite group resemble those of people decades younger. RIGHT: A researcher holds a human brain in a laboratory at Northwestern University’s cognitive neurology and Alzheimer’s disease center in Chicago.
odic imaging scans and other medical tests. They also must be willing to donate their brains after death. The memory tests include lists of about 15 words. “Super agers can remember at least nine of them 30 minutes later, which is really impressive because often older adults in their 80s can only remember just a couple,” Rogalski said. Special MRI scans have yielded other remarkable clues, Rogalski said. They show that in super agers, the brain’s cortex, or outer layer, responsible for many mental functions including memory, is thicker than in typical 80and 90-year-olds. And deep within the brain, a small region called the anterior cingulate, important for attention, is bigger than even in many 50- and 60-year-olds. The super agers aren’t just different on the inside; they
have more energy than most people their age and share a positive, inquisitive outlook. Rogalski said the researchers are looking into whether those traits contribute to brain health. Other research has linked a positive attitude with overall health. And some studies have suggested that people who are “cognitively active and socially engaged” have a reduced chance of developing Alzheimer’s disease, but which comes first — a healthy brain or a great attitude — isn’t known, said Heather Snyder, director of medical and scientific operations for the Alzheimer’s Association. Snyder said the SuperAging study is an important effort that may help provide some answers. Edith Stern is among the super agers. The petite woman looks far younger
than her 92 years and is a vibrant presence at her Chicago retirement home, where she acts as a sort of room mother, volunteering in the gift shop, helping residents settle in and making sure their needs are met. Stern lost most of her family in the Holocaust and takes her work seriously. “What I couldn’t do for my parents, I try to do for the residents in the home,” she said, her voice still thick with the accent of her native Czechoslovakia. Stern acknowledges she’s different from most people at the home, even many younger residents. “I am young — inside. And I think that’s the difference,” she said. “I grasp fast,” she adds. “If people say something, they don’t have to tell me twice. I don’t forget it.”
Ken Zwiener, of Deerfield, Ill., is another super ager. He had “more than an inkling” he might qualify for the study, and his kids encouraged him to enroll. “They said, ‘Dad, your brain is the best thing about you,’” the 81-year-old retired businessman recalled. He’s a golfer and Broadway musical “nut” who created a 300-plus-page computer database of shows. Zwiener uses an iPad, recently went hot-air ballooning and is trying to learn Spanish. “My dad lived into his middle 90s and was pretty sharp right up until the day he died,” Zwiener said. Zwiener’s motivation for joining the study was simple: The best man at his wedding died of Alzheimer’s disease before age 50. “To lose a mind ... is just a terrible way to go,” he said.

Obama proposes new system for rating colleges BY JULIE PACE AP White House Correspondent BUFFALO — Calling higher education an “economic imperative,� President Obama is pushing for an ambitious new government rating system for colleges that would judge schools on affordability and performance and ultimately determine how federal financial aid is distributed. The rating system, which the president wants implemented before the 2015 school year, would evaluate colleges on several criteria, including average tuition and student loan debt, graduation rates and the average earning of graduates. Obama said he will ask Congress to link the new rating system to the way federal financial aid is disbursed, with students attending highly rated schools receiving larger grants and more affordable student loans. “It’s time to stop subsidizing schools that are not producing good results and reward schools that deliver American students of our future,� Obama told a crowd of more than 7,000 at the University of Buffalo. Obama detailed his proposal on the first stop of a two-day bus tour through
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
President Obama speaks at the University at Buffalo in New York on Thursday. Obama began his two-day bus tour to speak about college financial aid at the university.
New York and Pennsylvania. The tour underscores the White House’s desire to stay focused on domestic issues, even as foreign policy crises in Egypt and Syria vie for his attention. Throughout the summer, the White House has been seeking to keep the president’s public agenda cen-
tered on middle-class economic issues as a way to rally public support for his positions ahead of looming battles in the fall with congressional Republicans over the budget and raising the nation’s debt limit. On Thursday, he tried to draw a clear distinction with some of his Republican opponents.
“Rather than seeking, keeping focus on a growing economy that creates good middle-class jobs, you know, we’ve seen a faction of Republicans in Congress suggest that maybe America shouldn’t pay its bills that have already been run up, that we should shut down government if they can’t shut
down Obamacare,� Obama said. Obama said a big part of middle-class security includes fundamentally rethinking how to pay for higher education. “Higher education cannot be a luxury, it’s an economic imperative,� he said. “Every American family should be able to get it.� The White House chose the University of Buffalo because it is part of the State University of New York system, which the Obama administration credits as a leader in affordability and innovation. The attention to school costs comes after Obama and Congress recently cooperated on a new law governing student loans. But Obama said loan amounts aren’t keeping up with skyrocketing college costs. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Thursday, Education Secretary Arne Duncan said the middle class needs the security of knowing they can afford to send their kids to college. “There’s a growing sense that college is for the wealthy, for rich folks and not for hard-working people who are doing the right thing every day,� he said.
U.S. unemployment aid applications rise to 336,000 BY CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON — The number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits rose last week after reaching the lowest level in 5½ years. But the broader trend suggests companies are laying off fewer workers and could step up hiring in the months ahead. The Labor Department said Thursday
that applications for first-time benefits rose 13,000 to a seasonally adjusted 336,000 in the week ending Aug. 17. That’s up from 323,000 in the previous week, which was the lowest since Jan. 2008. The four-week average, which smooths week-to-week fluctuations, fell by 2,250 to 330,500. That’s the sixth straight decline and the lowest for the average since November 2007. At the depths of the recession in March
2009, applications numbered 670,000. Applications for unemployment benefits generally reflect layoffs. The four-week average has fallen 5 percent in the past month. The drop suggests employers added nearly 200,000 in August, an improvement from the 162,000 added in July. The unemployment rate fell to a 4½-year low of 7.4 percent last month, down from 7.6 percent in June. That’s still well above the 5
percent to 6 percent range associated with a normal economy. The drop in layoffs helps explain why job growth has increased this year to an average
of 192,000 net jobs a month, even while overall economic growth has stayed sluggish. Net job gains show the number of people
hired minus those who lose or quit their jobs. And when companies cut fewer jobs, it doesn’t take many new hires to create a big net gain.

The choice in Egypt
W
ASHINGTON — Egypt today is a zero-sum game. We’d have preferred there be a democratic alternative. Unfortunately, there is none. The choice is binary: the country will be ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood or by the military. Perhaps the military should have waited three years for the intensely unpopular Mohamed Morsi to be voted out of office. But Gen. Abdel Fatah al-Sissi seems to have calculated that by then there would be no elections — as in Gaza, where the Palestinian wing of the Brotherhood, Charles Hamas, KRAUTHAMMER elected in 2006, established a oneman-one-vote-one-time dictatorship. What’s the U.S. to do? Any response demands two considerations: (a) moral, i.e., which outcome offers the better future for Egypt, and (b) strategic, i.e., which outcome offers the better future for U.S. interests and those of the free world. As for Egypt’s future, the Brotherhood offered nothing but incompetent, intolerant, increasingly dictatorial rule. In one year, Morsi managed to squander 85 years of Brotherhood prestige garnered in opposition — a place from which one can promise the moon — by persecuting journalists and activists, granting himself the unchallenged power to rule by decree, enshrining a sectarian Islamist constitution and systematically trying to seize the instruments of state power. As if that wasn’t enough, after its overthrow the Brotherhood showed itself to be the party that, when angry, burns churches. The military, brutal and bloody, is not a very appealing alternative. But it does matter what the Egyptian people think. The antiMorsi demonstrations were the largest in recorded Egyptian history. Revolted by Morsi’s betrayal of a revolution intended as a new opening for individual dignity and democracy, the protesters explicitly demanded Morsi’s overthrow. And the vast majority seem to welcome the military repression aimed at abolishing the Islamist threat. It’s their only hope, however problematic, for an eventual democratic transition. And which alternative better helps secure U.S. strategic interests? The list is long: (1) a secure Suez Canal, (2) friendly relations with the U.S., (3) continued alliance with the pro-American Gulf Arabs and Jordanians, (4) retention of the Israel-Egypt peace treaty, (5) cooperation with the U.S. on terrorism, which in part involves (6) isolating Brotherhood-run Gaza. Every one of which is jeopardized by Brotherhood rule.
What, then, should be our policy? The administration is right to deplore excessive violence and urge reconciliation. But let’s not fool ourselves into believing this is possible in any near future. Sissi crossed his Rubicon with the coup. It will either succeed or not. To advocate a middle way is to invite endless civil strife. The best outcome would be a victorious military magnanimously offering, at some later date, to reintegrate the more moderate elements of what’s left of the Brotherhood. But for now, we should not be cutting off aid, civilian or military, as many in Congress are demanding. It will have no effect, buy no influence and win no friends on either side of the Egyptian divide. We should instead be urging the quick establishment of a new Cabinet of technocrats, rapidly increasing its authority as the soldiers gradually return to their barracks. Generals are very bad at governance. Give the reins to people who actually know something. And charge them with reviving the economy and preparing the foundations for a democratic transition — most importantly, drafting a secular constitution that protects the rights of women and minorities. The final step on that long democratic path should be elections. After all, we’ve been here. Through a half-century of cold war, we repeatedly faced precisely the same dilemma: choosing the lesser evil between totalitarian (in that case, communist) and authoritarian (usually military) rule. We generally supported the various militaries in suppressing the communists. That was routinely pilloried as a hypocritical and immoral betrayal of our alleged allegiance to liberty. But in the end, it proved the prudent, if troubled, path to liberty. The authoritarian regimes we supported — in South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, Chile, Brazil, even Spain and Portugal (ruled by fascists until the mid-1970s!) — in time yielded democratic outcomes. Gen. Augusto Pinochet, after 16 years of iron rule, yielded to U.S. pressure and allowed a free election — which he lost, ushering in Chile’s current era of democratic flourishing. How many times have communists or Islamists allowed that to happen? Regarding Egypt, rather than emoting, we should be thinking: what’s best for Egypt, for us and for the possibility of some eventual democratic future. Under the Brotherhood, such a possibility is zero. Under the generals, slim. Slim trumps zero.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Back-to-school event in Pinewood a success Pinewood’s “Back to School Bash and Cookout” was held this past Saturday, with a day of fun, fellowship and sharing for the entire community. The event was sponsored by the “Proud of Pinewood” committee, and was supported financially by local businesses, merchants, churches and individual citizens who donated all of the money, supplies, food and prizes necessary for the event. With Tom and Bea Moore spearheading the drive, over 150 “school supply sharing bags” were assembled and distributed to all school-aged children in attendance. Along with the school supplies there were hot dogs, cheeseburgers, watermelons, crawfish, drinks and desert for everyone. The Sumter County Sheriffs Department took the responsibility of manning the
cooking grills while Jason Pugh prepared the crawfish, which were raised locally, and donated by Mr. Touton Elliot of Elliot’s Landing. All of the food, which was prepared by these cooks, was served by residents of the local community. These hard workers also packed the school supply bags. Joining forces on this team of workers were Julia Benbow; Theresa Evans; Polly Timmons; Angela Benbow; Marilyn Holland; Councilman Leonard Houser and his wife, Mammie; and town clerk Felicia Lester. David Harris of Harris Machine Shop brought out his eight-car “kiddie train,” which was built in his local shop. Due to the train’s immense popularity, “Conductor Harris” barely had time to wipe his brow and unload his passengers before the train was once again filled with another load of shrieking children ready to roll.

Stop and frisk doesn’t target minorities
N
ew York City seems on the verge of making the same mistake that Detroit made 40 years ago. The mistake is to abolish the NYPD practice referred to as stop and frisk. It’s more accurately called stop, question and frisk. People were stopped and questioned 4.4 million times between 2004 and 2012. But the large majority were not frisked. The effectiveness of this police practice, initiated by Mayor Rudy Giuliani in 1994 and continued by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, is not in doubt. The number of homicides — the most accurately measured crime — in New York fell from a peak of 2,605 in 1990 to 952 in 2001, Giuliani’s last year in office, to just 414 in 2012. Nevertheless, the three leading Democratic mayoral candidates in the city’s September primary all have pledged to end stop and frisk. And last week, federal judge Schira Scheindlin, in a lawsuit brought by 19 men who have been stopped and frisked, found that the practice is unconstitutional and racially discriminatory. Bloomberg has promised to appeal, and several of Scheindlin’s decisions in high-profile cases have been reversed. But the leading Democratic candidates for mayor promise, if elected, to drop the appeal. The two leading Republican candidates support stop and frisk, but their chances of election seem dim in a city that

Mr. Alfred Conyers and his family brought out their bounce house, which was also a huge attraction for the children. There was an all-day stream of “little shoes coming off of little feet, in order to enter the bounce house … and those same little feet trying to find the right pair of shoes, and getting tied without knots, upon departure.” Mayor Mr. Al Pridgen and town council members Leonard Houser and Jackie Spann were in attendance, showing their support for the event and enjoying a day with their constituents.

COMMENTARY
voted 81 percent for Barack Obama in 2012. What riles opponents of stop and frisk is that a high proportion of those stopped are young black and Hispanic males. Many innocent people undoubtedly and understandably resent being subjected to this practice. No one likes to be frisked, including the thousands of airline passengers who are every day. But young black and, to a lesser extent, Hispanic males are far, far more Michael likely than othBARONE ers to commit (and be victims of) violent crimes, as Bloomberg points out. I take no pleasure in reporting that fact and wish it weren’t so. This was recognized by, among others, Jesse Jackson, who in 1993 said, “There is nothing more painful for me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start to think about robbery and then look around and see it’s somebody white and feel relieved.” You can get an idea about what could happen in New York by comparing it with Chicago, where there were 532 homicides in 2012. That’s more than in New York, even though New York’s population is three times as large. One Chicagoan who supports stop and frisk is the father

of Hadiya Pendleton, the 15-year-old girl shot down a week after singing at Barack Obama’s second inauguration. “If it’s already working, why take it away?” he told the New York Post. “If that was possible in Chicago, maybe our daughter would be alive.” Chicago and New York both have tough gun control laws. But bad guys can easily get guns in both cities. The difference, as the New York Daily News’s James Warren has pointed out, is that frequent stops and frisks combined with mandatory threeyear sentences for illegal possession of a gun mean that bad guys in New York don’t take them out on the street much. Stop and frisk makes effective the otherwise ineffective gun control that Bloomberg so strongly supports. Those who decry stop and frisk as racially discriminatory should remember who is hurt most by violent crime — lawabiding residents of high-crime neighborhoods, most of them black and Hispanic, people like Hadiya Pendleton.

FAITH GROUP from Page A1 Bagwell said it was a humbling experience to be a firefighter. “God allows us to do this,” he said. “Sometimes you are there in the last seconds of a person’s life. The door to eternity is open.” In those moments, it’s vital, Bagwell said, for firefighters to have the right words to say. “They could make a decision for Jesus,” he said. During the meeting, Brogdon announced the group would be called the Franklin/Barber Sumter Fire Department Fellowship of Christian Firefighters in memory of Gene Franklin, a former department chaplain who died in a motorcycle wreck in 2008, and in honor Don Barber, who has taught a
weekly Sunday School class for the firefighters at the department’s headquarters for 40 years. Brogdon said the group’s activity has drawn interest from firefighters across the county. They have advertised mostly by word of mouth, and Brogdon said they are trying to let retired firefighters know about the monthly meetings. “They are a part of our family; they are our brotherhood,” he said. The group meets the third Tuesday of each month. For more information about the local chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Firefighters, contact the Sumter Fire Department Headquarters at (803) 436-2600.

MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) — An 18-year-old man accused of fatally shooting a baby in a stroller during a robbery attempt in coastal Georgia twice counted down from five and threatened the baby before the deadly shot, his teenage co-defendant testified Thursday. Dominique Lang took the stand at the murder trial of De’Marquise Elkins, who is accused of shooting 13-month-old Antonio Santiago on March 21. Police say the 15-year-old Lang was an accomplice, and he is also charged with murder and will be tried at a later date. The killing in the port city of Brunswick, not far from Savannah, drew national attention, and the trial was moved to the Atlanta suburb of Marietta owing to extensive publicity. Elkins faces life in prison if convicted of murder. At the time of the shooting he was 17, too young to face the death penalty if convicted under Georgia law. Prosecutors said information from Elkins’ mother and sister led investigators to a pond where they found a .22-caliber revolver. Elkins’ mother, Karimah Elkins, is standing trial alongside her son on charges of evidence tampering and lying to police. Elkins’ sister also was charged with evidence tampering. Prosecutor Liberty Stewart asked Lang to recount for jurors his actions the day of the killing. Lang said he ran into Elkins that morning, and
the older teen asked if he’d ever robbed anyone. Lang said he told Elkins he hadn’t. A bit later, as the two were walking side by side down a street, they saw Sherry West down the block with a baby stroller. West and her child were returning home from the post office, authorities have said. Elkins walked toward West and told her to give him her purse, Lang said. West refused, and Elkins repeated his demand several times before pulling out a gun and hitting West in the face with it, Lang said. West still wouldn’t give up the purse and tugged back when Elkins reached out and grabbed it, Lang said. Then Elkins threatened the baby, Lang said. “He was like, ‘Five, four, three,’ and then she stopped him,” Lang said. Elkins asked for the purse again and West refused again, and Elkins began to count down from five again, Lang said. West still refused to give up the purse, and Lang said Elkins walked around the stroller toward her and shot at the ground and then shot West in the leg and asked for the purse again. Lang said he wasn’t sure what happened next but said Elkins had been pointing the gun at the baby and Lang heard a third shot. Then both teens took off running. Bystanders and rescue workers were unable to revive the child, who was pronounced dead at the scene, authorities have said.

Wile, 33, had been director of business development for the Motor Racing Network. He told The Associated Press that he plans to tap into Darlington’s history to improve the race-day experience for fans. “This race track has been one of the crown jewels of the sport for 60
years,’’ Wile said by phone. “I promise that Darlington will have a place in NASCAR.’’ Wile also expected the track to retain its annual date on Mother’s Day weekend, which he believes has turned into a modern tradition for a track that held its first race in 1950.

The first Sumter Area High School Football Kickoff was held at Bethesda Church of God on Thursday. Many of the local area teams gathered for food, a concert by the JJ Weeks band, fellowship and to listen to the journey of former Wofford standout turned pastor Derrick Wooten. The gathering was a combination of work from Crestwood High assistant Lance Newman and the church’s youth pastor, Rev. Neil Dubose.
CLEMSON — The final question of a mandatory postgame press conference, following an unimaginably painful defeat, didn’t immediately set off Georgia football coach Mark Richt. It was somewhat directly, somewhat vaguely suggested Georgia’s 32-28 SEC championship game loss to Alabama last Dec. 1 — sending the Crimson Tide to the BCS national championship and forcing the Bulldogs to settle for a Capital One Bowl bid — MURRAY would fuel the fire of critics who argue Richt and quarterback Aaron Murray “come up short on the biggest stage against the biggest BOYD opponents.” Initially, Richt sidestepped the question with anguish. He was then excused from the podium, but about 30 seconds later, the dean of SEC head coaches returned to face reporters. “I wanna say something else. If anybody thinks our guys didn’t play their tails off and Aaron Murray didn’t play his tail off, they’re crazy,” Richt said, visually disgusted. “I mean, that’s just unbelievable somebody would even bring that up.” Murray is one of the most celebrated quarterbacks in his school’s history, record-setting for his longevity as well as his production. He came back for his fifth year and senior season, resisting the compulsion of NFL fame and fortune for one more go-around, prioritizing team goals over an instant payday. Yet

Carolina has to call on young LBs BY PETE IACOBELLI The Associated Press COLUMBIA — South Carolina has All-American Jadeveon Clowney up front and a solid secondary behind. In the middle, though, is where the defensive questions begin for the sixthranked Gamecocks. South Carolina lost five senior linebackers from one of the Southeastern Conference’s top defenses a year ago. Shaq Wilson, Reggie Bowens, Quin Smith and Demario Jeffery took nearly every snap at the position in 2012 while DeVonte Holloman was one of the team’s top playmakers from his hybrid spot of
strong safety/linebacker. That means South Carolina will rely on a group of untested youngsters as they look to keep opponents in check, starting with North Carolina on Aug. 29. “We have the right players to get this done,’’ said Marcquis Roberts, a redshirt sophomore who may be the oldest of the SEE USC, PAGE B4

Hernandez indicted on murder charge ATTLEBORO, Mass. — Former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez was indicted Thursday on firstdegree murder and weapons charges in the death of a friend whose bulletriddled body was found in an industrial park about a mile from the explayer’s home. The six-count grand jury indictment charges Hernandez with killing 27-year-old Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football player from Boston who was dating the sister of Hernandez’s girlfriend. Hernandez, 23, pleaded not guilty to murder and weapons charges in June, and he is being held without bail. He had a brief court appearance in Attleboro on Thursday afternoon. Afterward, his attorney Michael Fee said the defense was pleased to be on a path to a jury trial and was looking forward to testing the prosecution’s evidence. “There has been an incredible rush to judgment in this case,’’ and the state doesn’t have enough evidence to prove the charges, he said. Hernandez signed a contract last summer worth $40 million but was cut by the Patriots within hours of his June 26 arrest, when police led the handcuffed athlete from his home as news cameras rolled. He could face life in prison if convicted. The Bristol County grand jury also indicted two others in the case: Hernandez associate Ernest Wallace and Hernandez’s cousin Tanya Singleton. Wallace is charged with accessory to murder after the fact. Prosecutors have said he was with Hernandez the night Lloyd died. Singleton is charged with criminal contempt for refusing to testify before the grand jury, Bristol County District Attorney Samuel Sutter said. She has been jailed in Massachusetts since Aug. 1. A recent affidavit said that, after Lloyd’s killing, Singleton bought Wallace a bus ticket. Carlos Ortiz, who faces a weapons charge in district court connected to the case, was not indicted. Sutter said Hernandez’s arraignment in Superior Court, where the

EDMONTON, Alberta — Lydia Ko is back on top of the Canadian Women’s Open leaderboard. The 16-year-old Ko, the winner last year at Vancouver Golf Club at an LPGA Tour-record age of 15 years, 4 months, shot a 5-under 65 on Thursday in perfect conditions at Royal Mayfair for a share of the firstround lead with Angela Stanford and the Netherland’s Christel Boeljon. Ko, the South Korean-born New Zealander, had six birdies and a bogey. Stanford rebounded after going 0-4 last week in the United States’ Solheim Cup loss in Colorado. The Texan birdied five of the first 12 holes in her bogey-free round. Boeljon had a hole-in-one on the 16th hole. She also had a bogey-free round, playing Nos. 15-17 in 4 under. From wire reports

Stadler in lead at Barclays BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kevin Stadler hits a fairway shot on the 15th hole during the first round of The Barclays on Thursday in Jersey City, N.J.
JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Kevin Stadler teed off just after breakfast and finished right before dinner. It took him nearly 11 hours to complete a 7-under 64 at Liberty National, his lowest score on the PGA Tour since the first week of February. And he still isn’t guaranteed to be the firstround leader at The Barclays. The FedEx Cup playoffs got off to a soggy start Thursday with two rain delays that lasted six hours. It was a start-again, stopagain day on the bank of the Hudson River, but that didn’t stop Stadler. He ran off three birdies early, then returned from the second delay and threw in four more birdies on a soft golf course. Asked if it was difficult to stay mentally prepared, Stadler replied, “I’m never really mentally prepared. Same as usual. It was all good.’’ Tiger Woods, the No. 1 player
in the world and in this playoff series, came out of the first delay by missing a short birdie putt on the par-5 13th and then rolling in three straight birdies to get into the mix. He cooled slightly after the slightly longer second delay, and failed to make birdie on any of the par 5s in his round of 67. Woods didn’t mind the long day. He was more concerned about the next long day on the horizon. Only the top half of the draw finished the round. The later starters — Ben Crane played only two holes — were to resume the round this morning and then go straight to the second round. That left the top half facing extra holes on Saturday to get the tournament caught up. “We’re done,’’ Woods said.
“It was a long day, and tomorrow will be a short one. And then Saturday will be pretty much a marathon.’’ British Open champion Phil Mickelson and Masters champion Adam Scott were among those who didn’t finish. PGA champion Jason Dufner had a 71, while U.S. Open champion Justin Rose recovered from a double bogey on the par-5 13th for a 68. Camilo Villegas, who started the season with conditional status and is No. 110 in the FedEx Cup standings, ran off four straight birdies around the turn and was the only player to reach 8 under — for now — until back-to-back bogeys late in his round. He had a 65, along with Henrik Stenson and Ryan Palmer. “Three breakfasts, three warm-ups, two lunches and a bunch of birdies, which is good,’’ Villegas said. Jason Day and Matt Kuchar shot 66. Day made two bogeys that kept a good round from getting away from him.
Murray, Djokovic could meet in U.S. Open semis BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press NEW YORK — Defending champion Andy Murray could face topseeded Novak Djokovic only in the semifinals at the U.S. Open, while Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer — who have never played each other at Flushing Meadows — might meet in the quarterfinals. Murray earned his first Grand Slam championship by beating Djokovic in the 2012 U.S. Open final, then added a second by beating the MURRAY No. 1-ranked Serb in the Wimbledon title match last month. But there can’t be a rematch in New York in the final, thanks to Thursday’s draw. DJOKOVIC “Coming to the U.S. Open last year, I’d never won a Grand Slam. I didn’t know if I was ever going to win one,’’ Murray said at the draw ceremony. “A lot of people would say ... like, ‘He’s good enough to win a Grand Slam. He’s going to win one.’ But the more finals you lose in, the more you start to doubt yourself and think, ‘Is it ever going to happen?’ Getting that weight off my shoulders last year was huge.’’ Play at the year’s last Grand Slam tournament begins Monday. In addition to No. 2 Nadal against No. 7 Federer, a 17-time major champion who has his lowest seeding at the U.S. Open since he was 13th in 2002, the other possible men’s quarterfinals are 2011 champion Djokovic vs. 2009 champion Juan Martin del Potro, No. 3 Murray vs. No. 5 Tomas Berdych, and No. 4 David Ferrer
vs. No. 8 Richard Gasquet. Federer, who owns five U.S. Open titles, and Nadal also were set up for a possible quarterfinal at Wimbledon this year, but that never materialized: Nadal lost in the first round, and Federer in the second. The potential women’s quarterfinals at the U.S. Open are No. 1 Serena Williams against No. 8 Angelique Kerber, No. 2 Victoria Azarenka against No. 7 Petra Kvitova, No. 3 Agnieszka Radwanska against No. 5 Li Na, and No. 4 Sara Errani against No. 6 Caroline Wozniacki. The woman who originally was seeded third in the tournament, 2006 champion Maria Sharapova, withdrew Wednesday because of a right shoulder injury. Williams’ 16 Grand Slam titles include four at the U.S. Open, including last year. Her first-round opponent will be 2010 French Open champion Francesca Schiavone. Williams could play 15thseeded Sloane Stephens of the United States in the fourth round; Stephens won their Australian Open quarterfinal in January. “I take every match really seriously. I don’t look too far in the draw. I just look at the first one,’’ Williams said. “For me, my competition comes with each match. Every match is going to be a very, very tough competition for me, and I just stay focused on one at a time.’’
DARLINGTON from Page B1 at all the company’s 11 race tracks. Don’t be surprised, he said, if some of those enhancements show up at Darlington. “We want to make Darlington special,’’ said Wile, who noted that he’s worked with race teams in several capacities since graduating from the University of Georgia. “The fans have to come first. We all understand that.’’ Browning helped Darlington through a period of transition during his nine years in charge. The track had recently installed lights for night racing when Browning arrived in 2004. Darlington had also gone from two races a year — in-

Former No. 5 singles player MacKenzie Lecher is moving up to No. 2. Anna Louise Segars will play No. 3 while Savannah Stewart moves up from JV to play in the fourth spot. Two more newcomers include eighth-grader Zan Beasley at No. 5 and Sally Spencer at No. 6. “Emily is a very scrappy player and has been able to see the whole court and figure out ways to win,” Williams said of her top player. “She’s consistent enough to hang in a match.”

Doubles are still a work in progress for the team as all of the players will be new. “We’re still trying to find some good chemistry. I’ve learned that’s what doubles is about — getting a lot of good chemistry and knowing where their partner is on the court,” Williams explained. “It’s going to be a work in progress.” As if managing a new team isn’t enough, the schedule also appears to be a challenge for the Lady Barons.

Ayers looks to push Wofford even more BY PETE IACOBELLI The Associated Press
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEC coaches did not vote Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Johnny Manziel (2) to the preseason first-team, opting instead for Georgia’s Aaron Murray.
Coaches drop Manziel to SEC preseason 2nd team BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Southeastern Conference coaches apparently don’t think Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel is the league’s best quarterback. The coaches rated the Texas A&M quarterback as the preseason second-team selection on the teams released by the league on Thursday. Georgia’s Aaron Murray was the first-team choice while Alabama’s AJ McCarron received third-team honors. Manziel became the first freshman to win the Heisman last season, but allegations that he received payment for autographs could threaten his eligibility. Manziel’s lawyer has said he believes the quarterback will play in Texas A&M’s season opener against Rice on Aug. 31 even if an NCAA investigation isn’t finished, but that decision could ultimately be the Aggies’. The cloud over his eligibility might have had something to do with Manziel’s downgrade. He was the first-team pick by league media before those allegations
surfaced. All three quarterbacks put up big stats, but Manziel had an unprecedented season in the SEC, even one-upping 2010 Heisman winner Cam Newton of Auburn. He led the league with 1,410 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns and also passed for 3,706 yards and 26 scores. Manziel is the first player in NCAA history to surpass 5,000 total yards and 1,000 rushing yards in a single season. Murray also has put up impressive numbers. He is the first quarterback in SEC history to have 3,000 passing yards in three straight seasons, throwing for a school-record 3,893 yards and 36 touchdowns last season while being intercepted 10 times. Murray already holds the school career marks for touchdown passes with 95 and touchdowns responsible for (104). McCarron led the nation in passing efficiency with 30 touchdown passes and just three in-
USC from Page B1 young bunch. The Gamecocks will find out quickly if Roberts is right. They open against the up-tempo Tar Heels who feature an experienced quarterback in Bryn Renner who attended the Manning Passing Camp this offseason. North Carolina offensive coordinator Blake Anderson said the Gamecocks talent at the linebacking position can make up for inexperience because those young players took advantage of their time on the field last year. “Even though they’re not penciled in as starters a year ago, they’re playing a significant amount of snaps,’’ Anderson said. “They can fly, they’ve got tremendous team speed.’’ South Carolina linebackers coach Kirk Botkin wishes he had the same comfort. He joked before last season when he took the assistant’s job that he’d wait to see how good he’d do when he “didn’t have five seniors on the roster.’’ That time is now. Roberts is making a strong push to start against the Tar Heels. Cedrick Cooper had been counted on for a spot, but has spent most of camp on the sidelines with an elbow injury. T.J. Holloman and Kiawan Lewis were around last season with firstyear players Larenz Bryant, Skai Moore and Jonathan Walton making a push for playing time.
QBs from Page B1 for all he’s accomplished, he’s still dogged by jabs about what he hasn’t. All that remind you of anybody else? Say, the reigning ACC Player of the Year? “I’ve been in that position,” Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd said. “You get labeled as ‘this particular quarterback’, or ‘you can’t do this in these games.’ I’ve been through some of those things here.”
terceptions. Alabama led the way with five first-team picks and 16 selections overall. LSU and Georgia both had eight make one of the teams, while Florida and Tennessee had seven each. Murray and McCarron might have better supporting casts among the skill positions, at least according to the coaches picks. Georgia tailback Todd Gurley and tight end Arthur Lynch are both first-teamers. So are Crimson Tide tailback T.J. Yeldon and wide receiver Amari Cooper. Jake Matthews, who protects Manziel’s blind side at left tackle, also made the first team. Defensively, South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney as a first-team pick. Alabama linebacker C.J. Mosley and safety HaHa Clinton-Dix were also among those selected. Coaches were not allowed to vote for their own players. And the SEC didn’t release the ballots or vote totals.
“We’re young and we like to fly around,’’ Walton said. “Our whole linebacker corps, we’ve been working on that a lot.’’ Botkin believes the young group paid attention last year from the sidelines when Wilson led the team in tackles and Holloman had a team best three interceptions. Botkin quizzed them hard at meetings, he said, and made sure they soaked up as much as possible to prepare for this season. “They’re doing a great job paying attention and focusing in on the tiny details of their position,’’ Botkin said. When people think of South Carolina’s defense, they think mostly of Clowney, the 6-foot-6, 274pound lineman who had 13 sacks a year ago. Clowney’s part of a deep and talented front line that includes Chaz Sutton at the other end and Kelcy Quarles at defensive tackle. The Gamecocks secondary should also be a strength with cornerbacks Victor Hampton and Jimmy Legree. Hampton started 12 games a year and Legree eight. Legree’s not too worried about the inexperience at linebacker. “Of course, they’re young and they’re going to make mistakes,’’ he said. “But they’ve got talent. I trust them.’’ How well the linebacker perform will go a long way to determining if South Carolina can continue its rise in the SEC. The Gamecocks have won 11 games in consecutive years for the first time in school history.
Murray is 0-2 in SEC championship tests. Boyd is 0-2 against South Carolina. And, come to think of it, Murray’s 0-3 vs. the Gamecocks, despite the Bulldogs’ historical dominance in the rivalry. But Boyd rebounded from a poor end to his freshman year by winning the 2011 ACC Championship, then essentially slammed shut the mouths of doubters with his gutty performance beating LSU 25-24 in the Chick-fil-A
Bowl last New Year’s Eve. That’s how December ended at the Georgia Dome. It opened with Murray falling one play away — just say “five yards short” around Athens and watch the reactionary depression — from slaying the Crimson Tide. “To come that close to winning a (league) championship and being able to compete for a national championship,” Murray said at SEC Media Days on July 18, “it’s hard to not give it one more
SPARTANBURG — Instead of easing up, Wofford coach Mike Ayers is ready to push the Terriers even more. Ayers understands that Wofford seems poised to become the Southern Conference’s top dog with Appalachian State and Georgia Southern in their final Football Championship Subdivision seasons. He also knows every other SoCon school will try and fill AYERS that void, which means he and the Terriers have to work harder than ever to stay out front. Ayers said he has pushed his players not to let up on even the smallest details of preparation for the season. The Terriers have reached the NCAA playoffs five of the past six years, three times as conference champions. They’ll need contributions from some new faces if they hope to return after the departure of 2,000-yard rusher Eric Breitenstein. “It doesn’t change a thing that we’ll do,” Ayers said of Appalachian State and Georgia Southern’s pending departures. “We still have to find a way to be more efficient at a meeting, come in in better condition. We’ve got to put in the work if we want the success.” Here are five things to watch as Wofford tries to win another SoCon title: 1. WHERE’S BREITENSTEIN?
Wofford all-time rushing leader Eric Breitenstein has finally exhausted his eligibility. The FCS All-American ran for a school record 2,035 yards last
season and 5,730 yards in his career. Donovan Johnson, a senior, will take over. He’s gained 1,793 yards and 14 TDs in three seasons. 2. OFFENSIVE LINE FLUX
The Terriers will have to replace threefifths of an offensive line that helped the school finish second nationally with 349 rushing yards a game. Center Jared Singleton and left guard Tymeco Gregory will anchor the unit and have a combined 49 career starts. 3. C.J. SPILLER?
No, it’s nose tackle E.J. Speller who’ll lead Wofford’s defensive line. He had 33 tackles and forced three fumbles, tied for most on last year’s team. Alongside Speller is Tarek Odom, who was second on the Terriers with 4½ sacks. 4. LOOKING TO PASS?
Don’t count on it out of Wofford’s offense. Last season, the Terriers threw 88 times in 13 games, or an average of seven times a game. Just six of their 49 touchdowns came via the pass. This year’s leading quarterback candidates, James Lawson and Michael Weimer, have a combined 43 passing attempts between them. 5. LOTS OF SUMMER FOOTBALL
Wofford is the alma mater of NFL owner Jerry Richardson, so campus is also the summer home of the Richardson’s Carolina Panthers. Several of Ayers players watch drills and interact with pros as both teams prepare for the upcoming season. The NFL camp also means Wofford is filled with state-of-the-art facilities like weight rooms and training areas used by the Terriers once the Panthers leave town. Predicted finish: Fifth in nine-team SoCon

Wofford College’s all-time leading rusher Eric Breitenstein, front, is one of the main pieces the Terriers will have to replace this season.
go if you have the opportunity.” Boyd can relate. Both Boyd and Murray, already college graduates with degree in hand, would have been likely middle-round picks in the 2013 NFL draft. Instead, they each may raise their stock with another sensational year. “You’ve just got to keep pushing, keep leading, and building on your future and your legacy,” Boyd said. “I know that’s what he’s trying to do over there, and that’s
what I’m trying to do over here.” Murray’s thrown more touchdown passes than any other active FBS player (95) and should become Georgia’s all-time leader in passing yards by midseason. He’s also what Richt calls “a very gracious ambassador for Georgia” and “a blessing for us” outside of football, as reflected by his 2012 honor on the American Football Coaches Association’s “Good Works Team.”

Braves’ Heyward has surgery on broken jaw ATLANTA (AP) — Braves outfielder Jason Heyward had surgery Thursday on his broken right jaw after he was struck by a pitch. The team has not said how long he will be out, but he could miss the rest of the regular season. Atlanta has a commanding lead in the NL East and hopes Heyward will recover in time for the playoffs. Dr. Glenn Maron operated in Atlanta, one day after Hey-
ward was injured. He inserted plates in both places where the jaw was fractured. Before his injury, Heyward had become one of the Braves’ hottest hitters. He was batting .253 with 13 homers and 37 RBI. The loss of Heyward is the latest in a staggering string of injuries for the Braves this season, even while building a 15-game lead entering Thursday night’s game at St. Louis. Already, the Braves have
lost six players to seasonending operations, including starting pitcher Tim Hudson and key relievers Eric O’Flaherty and Jonny Venters. Heyward got off to a slow start this season, his HEWYARD struggles heightened by an emergency appendectomy in late April. But he sparked the offense after moving to the top of the bat-
ting order last month, filling a role that had been a major problem. The Braves have relied largely on stellar pitching to carry them to the top of the division, ranking second in the league in ERA (3.18) before they faced the Cardinals. Outfielder B.J. Upton and second baseman Dan Uggla are in the midst of dreadful seasons, both hitting under .200. Uggla is on the disabled list recovering from laser eye
surgery. Outfielder Reid Johnson is also on the DL with an Achilles tendon injury and the Braves aren’t sure when he’ll return. Barring a trade, the Braves will have to get by with a makeshift lineup. Jordan Schafer seems most likely to take over the leadoff spot and right field. Slugger Evan Gattis is another possibility in left field, which would require Justin Upton to shift to Heyward’s spot in right.

Despite hitting fewer homers, the Texas Rangers have actually scored more runs since outfielder Nelson Cruz, above, was suspended for his involvement with the Biogenesis Clinic.
Rangers scoring more without Cruz BY STEPHEN HAWKINS The Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Not surprisingly, the Texas Rangers have hit fewer home runs without suspended All-Star slugger Nelson Cruz in their lineup. Yet, the AL West leaders are somehow scoring more runs and are 12-3 without him. “I think the reason for that is we’ve been able to get loose on the base paths,’’ manager Ron Washington said. “We’ve been able to do a lot of things that’s just been presented to us.’’ Speedy center fielder Leonys Martin was moved to the leadoff spot only a few days be-
fore the Rangers lost Cruz for the rest of the regular season. That put Ian Kinsler third in the batting order, with Elvis Andrus in between them. Texas also has since acquired right fielder Alex Rios, a player who hit homers and stole bases for the Chicago White Sox. “Missing Nellie obviously hurts, but our lineup’s clicking right now,’’ Kinsler said. “We’ve got a lot of guys that set things up and it’s working out for us.’’ The Rangers have scored an MLB-best 6.3 runs per game since Aug. 5, the day Cruz was among 13 players disciplined by Major League
Baseball after its drug investigation into the Biogenesis clinic in Florida. While they’ve hit half as many homers a game as they had with Cruz, they’ve stolen twice as many bases. “They’re using their skill sets to put them in the best position to be successful,’’ said Houston manager Bo Porter, whose team was swept in a three-game series at Texas this week. “There’s no weak links up and down their lineup.’’ Andrus (34 stolen bases), Rios (30) and Martin (27) are all among the top eight in the AL in stolen bases. Texas (74-53) is a season-high 21 games over
.500 with a 2 1/2 -game division lead over Oakland. After their third of six consecutive scheduled Thursdays off, the Rangers play 12 of 15 games on the road, starting with three games at the White Sox this weekend. When the Rangers lost Cruz for the rest of the regular season, they were averaging 4.6 runs with 1.2 homers per game. They have hit eight homers since (.533 per game) with 1.2 stolen bases per game, up from 0.65 before that. Even when taking a pair of high-scoring victories out of the equation, Texas still has nearly five runs a game.

Gamecocks land Atlanta wide receiver Leonard had 65 tackles with nine QB sacks. WR Trey Quinn of Lake Charles, La., decided to stay home and committed to Louisiana State on Saturday after giving Clemson a very hard look. Linebacker Marcus Moody of Bamberg-Ehrhardt High School has committed to Presbyterian. Last season, he had 118 tackles, five sacks, two interceptions and caused 10 fumbles. He was named All-Region and All-State last season. Defensive lineman Terrell Bush of Tuscaloosa, Ala., visited Furman earlier this month and committed to the Paladins. He also has offers from Appalachian State, Murray State, Jacksonville State and South Alabama. Running back Derrell Scott of Havelock, N.C., will announce his college decision on his birthday, Oct. 25. Scott is down to USC, North Carolina State, FSU and Ohio State. USC, FSU and NCSU are the perceived frontrunners at this point. Last month, Scott said the Gamecocks and Seminoles were the clear top two, but in recent weeks the Wolfpack has made a move. Scott visited NCSU a couple of weeks ago and that visit helped the Wolfpack’s positioning. He also visited USC this summer for a camp and brought his parents along. Scott has made multiple visits to USC over the last two seasons. DL Dexter Wideman of Saluda High committed to FSU in July, but he later attended a camp at USC and that has led to speculation that the Gamecocks are still alive for him. However, Saluda head coach Doug Painter feels, at least right now, Wideman has settled on the Seminoles. “He’s kind of relieved to get a decision made and feels good about it,” Painter said.
“He really likes the coaches there. I think he wanted to go a little farther away from home. It’s possible the door is open for USC, but Dexter hasn’t told me that. Kids can change their mind. I’m sure they’ll stay on him, but I think he’s pretty set on it (FSU) right now.” Painter said he’s confident Wideman will attend some games at USC this fall. He said Wideman has not scheduled any official visits. Woodruff High wide receiver Blake Bone said on Sunday he’ll make his announcement within two weeks. He is down to USC, Kentucky, Auburn, LouisPhil ville and Ole KORNBLUT Miss. DB Nick Glass of Atlanta, who had been committed to Georgia since April of 2012, announced on Twitter last week he has backed off of that commitment and plans to focus on his academics and his senior season. Clemson and USC were actively recruiting him prior to his commitment. Defensive end Dante Sawyer of Suwanee, Ga., is working on his decision and hopes to have one within the next two weeks. Sawyer is down to USC, Tennessee, Auburn and UGA. He is not claiming a favorite. Sawyer has not yet visited USC. He would like to make a visit before his decision, but if he’s not able to, he still wants to make his call within the next two weeks. LB Raekwon McMillan of Hinesville, Ga., has set up his five official visits for the fall. He’s got UGA on Sept. 27, Clemson on Oct. 18, Ohio State on Oct. 26, Alabama on Nov. 8 and Florida on Nov. 29. Clemson WR signee Kyrin Priester did not get through the NCAA Clearinghouse and will enroll at Fork Union Prep recruiting corner
T
he University of South Carolina football program went 1-for-2 on commitments from targets last week while Clemson was 0-for-2. USC landed wide receiver Terry Googer of Atlanta on last Friday. He picked the Gamecocks over North Carolina, Mississippi, Vanderbilt and Miami. “It was the perfect fit for me, location wise and academic wise and they are headed in the right place,” Googer said at his announcement. “I knew where I needed to be, so why keep putting it off. I wanted to focus on my senior season and I wanted to end it the right way.” Googer made several visits to USC and developed a strong relationship with recruiter Lorenzo Ward. “It feels good,” Googer said about joining the Gamecocks. “I’m ready to get down there and make some plays.” Googer plays quarterback for his high school and last season passed for 1,700 yards and rushed for 900 yards. He’s the 13th commitment for USC’s 2014 class. The Gamecocks missed out on defensive back Chris Lammons of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., when he committed to Florida. Defensive end Rick Leonard of Middletown, Md., last week committed to Florida State over Clemson. This was a come-from- behind victory for the Seminoles. Clemson was the clear leader after Leonard attended camp at Clemson this summer. His teammate, offensive lineman Justin Falcinelli, committed to Clemson soon after the camp. Leonard has family ties to FSU, and after he visited there on July 14, things began to swing in favor of the Seminoles. As recently as July 25 his coach thought it was 50-50 between the Tigers and Seminoles. Last season,
in Virginia this fall. He hopes to enroll at Clemson in January. Junior QB Torrance Gibson of Plantation, Fla., has received several early offers, including Clemson, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Miami, FSU, Alabama, West Virginia, South Florida, Boston College and Nebraska. Gibson only attended a camp at Miami this summer, so he does not have any favorites. Junior DB Minkah Fitzpatrick of Jersey City, N.J., camped at USC this summer and has an offer from the Gamecocks. His other offers include Alabama, Ohio State, Penn State, Connecticut, Rutgers, BC, Stanford, Virginia, Maryland, Virginia Tech and Syracuse. Fitzpatrick also took visits to Vandy, Rutgers, UVa and BC among others. DL Albert Huggins of Orangeburg-Wilkinson High is one of the state’s top junior prospects with a dozen offers already on the table. Auburn was the most recent. Earlier offers came from USC, Clemson, FSU, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Louisville, UGA, NCSU, UNC and South Carolina State. All of that has taken a back seat to getting ready for the upcoming season though. He hasn’t planned any visits for games this season. He would like to get to the ClemsonUGA game on Aug. 31, but his father is having some surgery around that time, so he’s not sure he will be able to make it. As for developing a favorites list, Huggins said that hasn’t happened yet. “I’m just taking my time right now,” he said. “I really don’t know.” He also doesn’t have a current preference for staying in state or leaving. “When it comes down to (National) Signing Day (in February of ‘15), it might make a difference or it might not, I really don’t know,” Huggins said. “Right now I’m just trying to learn everything I can
learn about each team. I’m just doing a background check on every team so I can be ready.” Huggins added there is no favorite with him right now between the Gamecocks and Tigers. “I treat both of them as equally as possible,” he said. “They both have great coaching staffs and their football programs are top notch.” Huggins added there is no timetable for a decision. Junior OL George Brown of Cincinnati plans to make an unofficial visit to Clemson for a game on Sept. 28. He also plans to go to games at UGA, UK, Florida, Auburn and Vandy. BASKETBALL NEWS

Earnhardt feeling heat after 2 subpar weekends BY HANK KURZ JR. The Associated Press RICHMOND, Va. — Two weeks ago, Dale Earnhardt Jr. was sailing along looking like a lock to make it into NASCAR’s Chase for the championship, standing fifth in points in one of the most consistent seasons of his career. Then he finished 30th at Watkins Glen, and 36th at Michigan. Suddenly the most popular driver in the Sprint Cup Series is feeling some heat. “The confidence is there, but the stress is there, too,’’ he said during a pause from testing Wednesday at Richmond International Raceway, where all four Hendrick Motorsports teams are spending two days. Earnhardt has fallen to seventh in the standings, just 20 points ahead of EARNHARDT teammate Kasey Kahne, who is 11th with three races remaining before the field is set in the regular season finale at Richmond. The top 10 in points automatically qualify, along with two wild card selections that place a premium on victories. Kahne has two, leading everyone outside the top six, and Earnhardt doesn’t have any. “You definitely don’t like to be in this situation,’’ Earnhardt said. “I don’t think anybody wants to be on the bubble or even worried or concerned about points leading up to Richmond, so we hope to have a couple of good weeks to put ourselves in a pretty comfortable situation before we even come here.’’ Earnhardt has three career victories on the 0.75mile D-shaped oval, which drivers say combines

short-track bumping and banging and a superspeedway feel, but his last victory here came in May 2006. “It’s a tough track,’’ he said. “Just looking at everybody as a whole, nobody really comes here and is just great every time. It’s not a track that you see one team consistently dominate. We’ve had good cars here and brought back the same setup and it just didn’t work. You’re never really sure when you show up.’’ The series moves to Bristol Motor Speedway this weekend, and also stops in Atlanta before returning to Richmond with what looks to be a battle that could go down to the final laps under the lights at RIR. BOXERS OR BRIEFS?
Five-time champion Jimmie Johnson enjoys interacting with fans on Twitter because it can help build his fan base, but said there are pitfalls, too. In connecting with people who like you, he said, you also make yourself available to those that don’t. “The social media world is an amazing world and a great place to connect with your fans and to show you fans part of your life that they don’t generally get to see, and also a side of your personality,’’ Johnson said, “but it’s also a great area for haters to get involved and do whatever they want. “I don’t think anyone’s immune to it. It doesn’t matter what sport you’re in. Haters have a chance, and I’m sure most of them are sitting in their mom’s basement in their underwear sending these tweets.’’

Ryan Briscoe will be back at Sonoma Raceway to defend last year’s victory after missing two races with a broken right wrist. Briscoe was cleared to drive following a full day test for Panther Racing last week at Sonoma, where he wore a carbon fiber wrist brace. He broke his wrist in the first doubleheader event at Toronto last month and needed surgery to repair the break. “My wrist held up pretty good during the test, although the brace was a bit of a nuisance,’’ Briscoe said. “But we made good progress during the test and worked through our program really well. I was pleased with our pace and definitely looking forward to coming back next week to find more speed.’’ Briscoe has seven career IndyCar starts at Sonoma. He won last year driving for Penske Racing and has four podium finishes and has led 66 total laps.

Viewers can catch up on repeats of the first seven episodes of “Horror” (TV-MA) from 10 p.m. this evening to 5 a.m. Saturday. The second batch of episodes will air from 11 p.m. Saturday to 5 a.m. Sunday. Set in a New England asylum run by nuns in the mid-1960s, the “American Horror Story: Asylum” series stars Emmy-nominated Jessica Lange as a mother superior with the mother of all secrets. Like many from the cast of the first season, Lange appeared in season two as an entirely different character in a whole new plot. Connie Britton, a notable star of season one, did not make the move, graduating instead to ABC’s “Nashville.” Britton admits to never watching herself in “Horror” because she was just too frightened of the series. Among those actors joining Lange as Emmy nominees are Sarah Paulson for supporting actress, and James Cromwell and Zachary Quinto for supporting actor. I generally don’t care too much about awards, but I’m a little shocked Lily Rabe was not nomi-
nated for her turn as Sister Mary Eunice, an innocent who undergoes some startling transformations. The second season of “Horror” offered viewers a ceaseless onslaught of genre tropes and themes, from alien abductions to demonic possession and Nazi science butchery. There were moments when “Horror” appeared to be indulging in shock for shock’s sake. Then again, that may be the state of contemporary horror — a time when films like the “Saw” and “Hostel” franchises make “The Exorcist” seem comparatively subtle. The Emmys will be broadcast on CBS on Sunday, Sept. 22. A new season and story, “American Horror Story: Coven,” returns to FX on Oct. 9. • TCM continues its “Summer Under the Stars” salute to a single performer each day during the month of August. Today’s featured actress, Elizabeth Taylor, chats on a 1992 episode of “The Tonight Show” on “Carson on TCM” (7:45 p.m.). Three of Taylor’s more smoldering roles follow. “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” (8 p.m.) and “Suddenly Last Summer” (10 p.m.) were both adapted from plays by Tennessee Williams. “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” airs at midnight. This 1966 adaptation of Edward Al-
bee’s stage drama represents the teaming of Taylor and husband Richard Burton at their most incendiary, caustic and powerful. Taylor and supporting actress Sandy Dennis won acting Oscars. Shot by Haskell Wexler, the film was the last to win an Oscar for black and white cinematography. From 1939 to 1966, a separate prize had been given for color films. After 1967, the categories were consolidated, reflecting the wholesale abandonment of black and white film stock. In the ensuing years, only one black and white film, “Schindler’s List,” has been honored for cinematography. “The Last Picture Show,” “Raging Bull” and “The Artist” stand out as notable nominees. “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” also marked Mike Nichols’ debut as a film director.
Tonight’s Other Highlights • The Green Bay Packers host the Seattle Seahawks in NFL Preseason Football (8 p.m., CBS). • Thieves stash stolen diamonds in a dead cop’s body on “Bones” (8 p.m., Fox, r, TV-14). • Circular reasoning on “America’s Next Top
