SC Works offers assistance for jobless citizens

Policeman pulls driver from submerged car

BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com Sumer Jarvis is new to being unemployed.

The former insurance clerk had her position eliminated at the end of the year.

“Merry Christmas,” she said sarcastically, reflecting on the early December notice that her job was ending.

After working at her previous job for 16 years, Jarvis filed for unemployment benefits this week, but was unsure what benefits she might receive, because extended federal unemployment assistance ended amid much media coverage at the end of 2013.

Missing Manning woman returns home safely An 81-year-old woman missing out of Manning is home safe.

Carrie Lee Mellett returned home safely on Friday, according to officials with the Clarendon County Sheriff’s Office. Law enforcement had initially requested help in locating Mellett, who had last been seen around 3 p.m.

Zoning board cancels monthly meeting

Family of man killed in tailgating fight sues 6 COLUMBIA (AP) — The family of a man killed in a fight outside of Williams-Brice Stadium after a South Carolina football game is suing the people who invited the man convicted in the killing to a tailgating party and the owners of the place where the party took place.

The lawsuit filed by Martin Gasque’s family names six defendants. Gasque was run over by a truck after fighting a fan in October 2010 after South Carolina beat Alabama. The man he fought with, Curtis Simms was convicted of breach of the peace and remains in prison.

The lawyer who filed the suit, Doug

Jennings, wants a jury to hold the people who threw the party responsible for what happened just like a bar that serves too many drinks to someone involved in a drunken driving crash.

“We think this lawsuit is primarily focused on the responsibility owed to the public surrounding the partying and drinking atmosphere, particularly at USC football games, when there is a virtual nonstop party for hours and hours in various parking spaces leading up to a big game,” Jennings told The State newspaper.

The defendants include Simms as well as the man who drove the pickup, the man that invited Simms to the tail-

gate party and the people who own and manage the parking lot where the party took place.

The lawyers for the defendants deny any responsibility for Gasque’s death and said he is responsible for his own drinking and whatever happened because he was drunk.

Gasque was a South Carolina fan and Simms was an Alabama fan. The two briefly fought, and authorities said a punch from Simms knocked him down, where he was run over by a pickup truck.

Simms was sentenced to three years in prison and should be released later this year.

The Sumter City-County Board of Zoning Appeals has canceled its next monthly meeting, originally scheduled for Wednesday, because there are no requests before the planning office that require review by the board.

The next scheduled meeting will be at 3 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 12, 2014. Anyone with questions or in need of additional information should call the planning department at (803) 774-1660.

U.S. Army Central to host change of command U.S. Army Central will host a change of responsibility ceremony between Command Sgt. Maj. Stephan Frennier and Command Sgt. Maj. Ronnie R. Kelley at Patton Hall’s Lucky Park on Wednesday at 10 a.m.

Lt. Gen. James L. Terry, USARCENT commanding general, will officiate the ceremony and will exchange the USARCENT colors with the outgoing command sergeant major and the incoming command sergeant major.

Kelley, the incoming senior enlisted leader, is a native of Bryan, Texas, and enlisted in the Army July 1985.

His 28-year career includes previous assignments throughout the U.S., Germany and Korea.

Kelley’s operational deployments include Bosnia and three tours to Iraq. His awards include four Bronze Stars. Kelley replaces Frennier, who will retire from the Army with 33 years of service.

Zoning not part of land use topic in city council agenda Land use tops Sumter City Council’s agenda for the new year, but not in the sense of the zoning ordinance.

Instead, the sale, purchase, transfer, leasing or annexation of various plots around town fill up the agenda for Tuesday’s scheduled council meeting.

Members will consider a request to annex the lot at 148 Chippewa Circle into the city limits, but are also scheduled to vote on transferring a parcel of land at 4 Walsh Grove to Sumter County.

Also on the agenda is a motion to purchase property at 9 Tahoe Drive for the planned expansion of a city water plant, along with one to approve a “farming lease” on an unnamed piece of cityowned property.

Council members are also scheduled to consider the purchase of a new garbage truck.

Sumter City Council will meet at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday in the City Centre, 25 N. Main St.

Recovering sunken timber subject at Lee Historical Society FROM STAFF REPORTS Historic, sunken timber lies at the bottom of our Pee Dee Area rivers. The discovery and recovery of these valuable cypress logs will be the subject of the guest speaker at the Lee County Historical Society’s Jan. 14 meeting. Alec Blalock of Camden will discuss his efforts in locating and salvaging these treasures from long ago.

In the past it was easier and more profitable for lumber companies to float the giant cypress logs cut in the swamps of the low country rivers down to the sawmills rather than to attempt to transport them by land.

Ax men would cut the giant trees, roll them down to the nearby river and raft them downstream to sawmills located miles away. In old photographs men can be seen standing on masses of floating logs and polling them along via the aid of long poles. It was a slow and dangerous process. Unfortunately, accidents happened: Men were injured or killed and some of the giant logs sank under the current and through the passing years have remained positioned on the bottoms of rivers in the Pee Dee. Blalock and his company locate, raise and now lumber some of these giants from the past. Blalock is a

Clemson graduate, a Camden native and a current resident of the Red Hill Section of Lee County. He and his wife Beverly have two children and 3 grandchildren. Blalock was employed with the US Postal Service until retiring in 2005. He owned and operated a parttime underwater SCUBA guide service for almost 20 years, specializing in hunting fossils and artifacts in South Carolina rivers. He now hunts underwater for what are called “Sinker Logs,� those ancient, cypress timbers described above.

Blalock’s address to the historical society should be especially interesting for those who love beautiful things made from old wood.

He will display some objects created from the wood treasures he has located.

The Lee County Historical Society meets on the second Tuesday of each month. The public is invited to attend the meetings and enjoy the variety of programs. There is no charge.

Meetings begin at 7 p.m. and are held in the conference room of the S.C. Cotton Museum located near the corner of North Main Street and Cedar Avenue.

The Lee County Historical Society is a non-profit organization which is open to all for membership. For more information call Don Mathis at (803) 428-3646.

RESCUE from Page A1 since August of last year after he graduated the Criminal Justice Academy, was on patrol on Liberty Street when he spotted two cars stopped in the road with their hazard lights flashing. A 25-year-old bystander told Eley that while he was traveling east on Liberty, he saw a 2000 Mazda four-door vehicle speeding and crossing lanes before it ran off the road and into the water.

The officer walked to the edge of the pond and saw the vehicle submerged up to the driver’s side window. The driver, later identified as Cimpean, appeared unconscious and attempts to get his attention failed.

As the car continued to sink, Eley contacted dispatch to send out EMS and fire. He then took off his equipment, jumped in and swam about 30 yards to the vehicle that was filling with water. “He literally stripped down,� said Public Information Officer Barron

Hite. “You can’t swim in a bullet proof vest, gun belt and boots.�

Cimpean awoke as Eley got him out of the vehicle and swam him to shore. While officers questioned the driver, they noticed a strong smell of alcohol.

Both men were transported to Tuomey Regional Medical Center for observation. “He’s good,� Roark said of his officer. “He has minor hypothermia from the freezing cold

But Cimpean is cooling his heels at SumterLee Detention Center.

While at the hospital, he refused treatment and kept removing the monitoring equipment. He was belligerent with staff, according to the police report, and was discharged.

Officers again questioned Cimpean, and he refused to complete sobriety tests. He was arrested and transported to the Law Enforcement

Kerry cites progress in Mideast diplomacy RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Saturday cited progress on the Mideast peace process, yet acknowledged that some of the most intractable disputes between Israelis and Palestinians were unsolved after more than 20 rounds of negotiations. “This is hard work,â€? he told reporters after a 2½-hour meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, their second in two days.

Afterward, Kerry resumed his shuttle diplomacy by heading back to Jerusalem for his third meeting in as many days with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The two had a nearly five-hour discussion that didn’t end until 11:30 p.m. “We’re not there yet, but we are making progress,� Kerry said earlier outside Abbas’ West Bank headquarters. “We are beginning to flesh out the toughest hurdles yet to be overcome.�

Kerry is trying to nudge Abbas and Netanyahu closer to a peace pact that would establish a Palestinian state alongside Israel.

The talks have entered an intense phase aimed at getting the two sides to agree on a framework and provide guidance toward a final settlement.

SC WORKS from Page A1 But Jarvis is comparatively lucky. Unlike the long-term unemployed who lost their benefits when Congress opted not to extend the Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) program for another year, she is eligible for up to 20 weeks of unemployment coverage under the state insurance program.

But regardless of whether a South Carolina resident is currently drawing unemployment, they can access free assistance through their local SC Works office.

There, job seekers have a chance to polish their resumes or interview skills with the staff, who can help steer cli-

ents toward a new career path. “We can help them register for our statewide database,� said Gwen Davis, SC Works director for the SanteeLynches region. “Employers look there, and many employers also post job openings to view.�

The main SC Works Center in Sumter allows clients to use their computers and phones on East Calhoun Street to search for work, or get one-on-one assistance from staff members, including an adult education instructor and a representative of the Vocational Rehabilitation department.

SC Works can also provide job training in

GREASE FIRE from Page A1 like that. I have a beautiful family, a beautiful home and I’m loved by so many people.�

Some people might not be so upbeat.

In August, while pregnant with her second son, Dodd sustained second- and third-degree burns to half her body.

Nearly six months later, she is recovering well and was able to celebrate the holidays with her two children and fiance, Ricky McLeod, in their new home.

The August accident began with a plan to fix French Fries.

Dodd put grease on the stove to heat up and took her sister’s puppy outside for a potty break.

When she came back in, the pot was on fire.

Dodd tried to take it outside, but when she opened the door, the grease exploded in her face.

She threw the pot outside and stopped, dropped and rolled in front of her concerned 5-yearold, Tristin. She pulled off her burning shirt and called for help.

She was stabilized at Tuomey

Regional Medical Center before being transported to Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta, Ga. It would be the beginning of many such trips, surgeries and treatments to repair the damage to her face, arms, chest, stomach and hips.

Besides her own condition, Dodd worried about the effects of her injuries, treatments and stress on the baby she was carrying.

But Kayden McLeod was born about 6:53 a.m. on Oct. 15, measuring 19-and-a-half-inches long and weighing 7 pounds and 7 ounces. “It went really well, especially with me going through all the surgeries,� Dodd said. “He was about two weeks early, but he was a really good size.�

She had hoped to breast feed him but was unable to do so. “I felt really guilty,� Dodd said. “I was taking antibiotics and still having surgeries. He is perfectly fine, though. He’s so amazing.

He’s so cute.�

Her last surgery was in early December to release her left arm

Although SC Works operated jointly as an unemployment center until last June, residents now have to file for unemployment benefits with the Department of Employment and Workforce either online or on the phone. SC Works staff can still assist clients in making their application, Davis said.

that had become stuck in a contracted position. “By the second week, they hoped it was better, but they started to see another infection so I started taking more antibiotics,�

Dodd said. “When they took it all off, I even cried. I was so happy to get it all off. I can even kind of bend it. It still hurts. I’m still getting used to it, but I’m just so happy to be done with the surgeries right now.�

She has had one laser scar treatment to help blend the grafted skin with the unburned skin. “My body is trying to heal,�

Dodd said. “Where the skin grafts are doesn’t feel like my other skin does. They are red and puffy, and the treatment corrects what my body is doing. The treatments make it more smooth.�

Though she is looking forward to another treatment at the end of February, she is mostly focused on being a mother right now. “My sister will come and stay with me if I’m having a little trouble, but I’m doing a lot of better,�

Dodd said.

As with others the economy has seemingly left behind, SC Works will strive to put her

back on her feet. “We don’t just want to help someone find a job,� Davis said. “We want to put them on a career path that will make them self-sufficient.�

Meanwhile, Jarvis will be looking for a new career path while she waits to hear back on her benefits application. “We’re doing OK now,� Jarvis said, “but talk to me in six months.�

Obama proposes firearm background check changes HONOLULU (AP) — The Obama administration on Friday announced a pair of executive actions aimed at strengthening federal background checks for gun purchasers, with a particular focus on limiting firearm access for those with mental health issues.

One proposed rule change aims to clarify terminology used by federal law to prohibit people from purchasing a firearm for mental health reasons. The administration said

states have complained that some wording is ambiguous, making it difficult to determine who should be blocked from buying a weapon.

The change also will help states determine what information may be shared with the federal background check system for firearms transfers.

The system has prevented more than 2 million guns from falling into the wrong hands, the Justice Department says.

A second proposed rule

change would give hospitals and other entities covered by patient privacy provisions more flexibility in the information they provide to the background check system.

However, the administration said the rule change would not require reporting on general mental health care or legally prohibit someone from having a firearm solely because they sought treatment.

The White House announced the proposals while President Obama was vaca-

tioning in Hawaii.

Obama put forward sweeping gun control measures last year following the horrific elementary school shooting in Newtown, Conn. But the toughest proposals, including stricter background checks, fell flat on Capitol Hill, forcing the White House to rely on piecemeal measures that can be implemented without congressional approval.

Several perpetrators of the nation’s worst mass shootings have had mental health is-

sues, including Newtown shooter Adam Lanza. However, they acquired their guns in different ways, with Lanza using firearms purchased by his mother when he went on a rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary.

In announcing the proposed rule changes, the White House also called on Congress to again tackle gun control issues this year. However, there’s little indication that lawmakers plan to take up the issue.

‘Polar vortex’ to blast frigid air over much of country SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The weather warnings are dire: Life-threatening wind chills.

Historic cold outbreak.

Winter is normally cold, but starting today, tundra-like temperatures are poised to deliver a rare and potentially dangerous sledgehammer blow to much of the Midwest, driving temperatures so far below zero that records will shatter.

One reason? A “polar vortex,� as one meteorologist calls it, which will send cold air piled up at the North Pole down to the U.S., funneling it as far south as the Gulf Coast.

The temperature predictions are startling: 25 below zero in Fargo, N.D., minus 31 in International Falls, Minn., and 15 below in Indianapolis and Chicago. At those temperatures, exposed skin can get frostbitten in minutes, and hypothermia can quickly set in because wind chills could hit 50, 60 or even 70 below zero.

Temperature records will likely be broken during the short, yet forceful deep freeze that will

Sledding enthusiasts take to Cricket Hill at Montrose Beach Park on Friday in Chicago.

Residents in the North and Midwest and as far south as the Gulf Coast are bracing for a deep freeze because of a “polar vortex� forecast to blanket much of the United States starting this weekend.

begin in many places today and extend into early next week.

That’s thanks to a perfect combination of the jet stream, cold surface temperatures and the polar vortex — a counterclockwise-rotating pool of cold, dense air, said Ryan Maue, of Tallahassee, Fla., a meteorologist for Weather Bell. “All the ingredients are there for a near-record or historic cold outbreak,� he said. “If you’re under 40 (years old), you’ve not seen this stuff before.�

Snow already on the ground and fresh powder expected in some places ahead of the cold air will reduce the sun’s heating effect, so nighttime lows will plummet because of strong northwest winds that will deliver the Arctic blast, Maue said. And there’s no warming effect from the Gulf to counteract the cold air, he said.

The cold blast will sweep through parts of New England, where residents will have just dug out from a snowstorm and the frigid temperatures that followed.

Historic smoking report marks 50th anniversary ATLANTA (AP) — Fifty years ago, ashtrays seemed to be on every table and desk. Athletes and even Fred Flintstone endorsed cigarettes in TV commercials. Smoke hung in the air in restaurants, offices and airplane cabins.

More than 42 percent of U.S. adults smoked, and there was a good chance your doctor was among them.

The turning point came on Jan. 11, 1964. It was on that Saturday morning that U.S. Surgeon General Luther Terry released an emphatic and authoritative report that said smoking causes illness and death — and the government should do something about it.

In the decades that followed, warning labels were put on cigarette packs, cigarette commercials were banned, taxes were raised and new restrictions were placed on where people could light up. “It was the beginning,� said Kenneth Warner, a University of Michigan public health professor who is a leading authority on smoking and health.

It was not the end. While the U.S. smoking rate has fallen by more than half to 18 percent, that still translates to more than 43 million smokers. Smoking is still far and away the leading preventable cause of death in the U.S. Some experts predict large numbers of Americans will puff away for decades to come.

Nevertheless, the Terry report has been called one of the most important documents in U.S. public health history, and on its 50th anniversary, officials are not only rolling out new anti-smoking campaigns, but also reflecting on what the nation did right that day.

The report’s bottom-line message was hardly revolutionary. Since 1950, head-turning studies that found higher rates of lung cancer in heavy smokers had been appearing

in medical journals. A widely read article in Reader’s Digest in 1952, “Cancer by the Carton,� contributed to the largest drop in cigarette consumption since the Depression. In 1954, the American Cancer Society announced that smokers had a higher cancer risk.

But the tobacco industry fought back. Manufacturers came out with cigarettes with filters that they claimed would trap toxins before they settled into smokers’ lungs. And in 1954, they placed a full-page ad in hundreds of newspapers in which they argued that research linking their products and cancer was inconclusive.

It was a brilliant counter-offensive that left physicians and the public unsure how dangerous smoking really was. Cigarette sales rebounded.

In 1957 and 1959, Surgeon General Leroy Burney issued statements that heavy smoking causes lung cancer. But they had little impact.

Amid pressure from health advocates, President John F. Kennedy’s surgeon general,

Dr. Luther Terry, announced in 1962 that he was convening an expert panel to examine all the evidence and issue a comprehensive, debate-settling report. To ensure the panel was unimpeachable, he let the tobacco industry veto any proposed members it regarded as biased.

Michael Miller, 5, of Fargo, N.D., holds one of his last candy cigarettes on March 14, 1953, in the year North Dakota’s governor signed a bill forbidding the sale or possession of candy packaged to resemble cigarettes.

On Jan. 11, 1964, U.S. Surgeon General Luther Terry released an emphatic and authoritative report that said smoking causes illness and death.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 5, 2014

To submit a letter to the editor, e-mail letters@theitem.com

Don’t be shy, join the discussion

A

s we move into the new year, we’d like to take the time and space to thank the many readers who’ve exercised their First Amendment rights by offering opinions as letters to the editor. We’ve received many varieties of letters over the past year: the good, the bad, the ugly. Some letters, which we discard, are notable for their reckless disregard of the truth, others are filled with rumors, hearsay, gossip and outright slander. We deep-six those also.

Aside from applying commonsense rules for letters to the editor, we do give letter writers plenty of latitude, as long as they follow the rules

EDITORIAL

Nevertheless, the First Amendment covers them as well as the more thoughtful, incisive and intelligent letter writers such as Robert Wilder, Jacqueline Hughes and Todd Garrick, for example. One may disagree with their opinions but they are never shy about standing up and being counted in the community dialogue about important local, state, national and world issues.

We don’t expect all opinions to be honest, fair and beyond reproach. But participation is far better than disengagement.

We look forward to a continued spirited debate on any subject as we welcome in the New Year.

|

for length: no more than 350 words.

Most newspapers limit letters to the editor to 200-250 words. We even go a step further by running lengthy letters that exceed 350 words in their entirety on the Opinion section of our website, www.theitem.com. However, few readers are interested in long-winded treatises from writers that can’t or won’t present their opinions succinctly. We also don’t accept unsigned letters and we don’t accept letters that state “Name withheld” or “anonymous.” If you want to share your opinion with our readers you must take responsibility for it by

giving your name, plus address and telephone number for verification purposes only.

We don’t pick winners or losers among the letters submitted. Some letters contain viewpoints that may be offensive to some readers, but the First Amendment doesn’t make such a distinction and we won’t either. An example would be letters from resident blowhards and players of the race card such as Eugene Baten and Ferdinand Burns. They’re in a league of their own in contributing to divisiveness in our community with their ill-chosen words.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Taxpayers do enough, Mr. Burns Here it is, a brand new year coming upon us and the first publication for the year is letters from two of my favorite writers, Eugene Baten and Ferdinand Burns. Baten’s subject is beating a dead horse. If I were to respond to it, he will never see the truth in regard to Obama. On the other hand, Burns’ letter is a subject that has been hashed over and over in communities and at all levels of government.

Mr. Burns, we taxpayers, even those that do not have any family member in the schools, are paying big bucks for children to get a ride to school — the bus, big bucks to feed many of them breakfast and or lunch, and big bucks spent to build schools, staff and maintain them for children’s attendance.

You know the old adage about “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink?” Then we hear of professors that leave institutions because they are expected to pass individuals just because they came to class. Where do we reach a happy median?

I spent 45 years in a law enforcement career — military and civilian — even spending several years as an investigator at the United States Disciplinary Barracks at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. It is in these lockups that many finally find the time to pursue an education. In most cases, that too is a freebee for them because again, the taxpayer is picking up the tab. It is a sad situation that being on the street and violating the laws of our nation is the normal for many. “Thug” activity is a lot more fun than sitting in class, I presume, than learning and being controlled so you can make something of your life.

If we are really concerned about our national problems, let us get religion back in our schools. Ever notice how many people seem to find “God” in our penal institutions? Let us return to the morals where we marry before we have children, where there are two parents in a house to nurture and educate our children and make them attend and atone for their actions in the schools we taxpayers provide for them.

can be read in its entirety under Opinion on The Item’s website, www.theitem.com.

Others’ money can’t be the answer to problems I would like to thank Ferdinand Burns for his insight into solving our citizens’ concerns for funding our children’s college education. The politically leaning “Left” thinks that funding through OPM (Other People’s Money) has become the source to solve all of our financial problems and Mr. Burns’ roundabout references to the OPM fund for non-violent criminals’ education is both unique and thought-provoking. Your education ideas will alleviate the worries I have about how I will fund college for my children: I will just have my kids commit a nonviolent crime so they can get an OPM-funded college education.

But as I pondered this idea, I realized as a tax-paying, law-abiding citizen, that I am a part of OPM. As any socialist will tell you, funding wild ideas (the Un-Affordable Health Care Act and a “new green economy” to name just two) are great until you run out of Other People’s Money.

And we, as a nation, have reached that point.

I would never consider providing (paying for) a college education for a criminal when I am trying to find legitimate ways to finance my own child’s education.

P.S. I think The Item made an error printing the two Jan. 2 letters. They should have been run on April Fool’s Day. It would have been more appropriate.

$875 billion deficit-spending ‘stimulus’ bill containing over 7,000 pieces of Democratic Party pork. Although he called $4 trillion added to the debt during eight years under Bush, Obama added approximately $6 trillion in recordsetting debt in only four years. Other ‘outstanding accomplishments’ on Obama’s resumé include Fast and Furious, aiding Al Qaeda conquer Libya and the Muslim Brotherhood control Egypt, IRS targeting of Americans, betrayal in Benghazi, UnConstitutional NSA spying, disastrous Obamacare and countless violations to the Constitution and law.

President Nixon was forced from office for participating in the cover-up of one scandal, yet President Obama is currently involved in no less than four. You opined the GOP should have graciously accepted defeat and compromised. To do so would be to ignore their oaths of office, their vows to protect and defend the Constitution and enforce the rule of law; yet, that is what they have done by doing nothing. You claim GOP opposition to the crimes and Constitutional violations above, in part, are ‘racist’.

Such an accusation is the last, desperate act of those attempting to defend the indefensible.

True history is not a matter of principle, as you claim, sir. true history is a matter of fact, not of biased principle or partisan agenda. True historians will criticize the GOP for a lack of courage and conviction to uphold their oaths of office, to do what was in the best interest of this nation rather than their own.

TODD ‘EASY’ GARRICK Sumter

Obama’s budget gashes, scandals unchecked

Lock up violent offenders, ease up on drug offenses

Mr. Baten, in 2008 our country was experiencing the worst economic slump since the Great Depression, a slump started two years earlier when Democrats took over the House and Senate. Harry Reid’s ‘coronation’ as Senate Majority Leader marked the last time, until recently, the United States passed a budget, something required annually by law. When liberals such as yourself attempt to blame the economy Obama ‘inherited’ on Bush, they conveniently omit how Democrats controlled the House and Senate during Bush’s last two years and Obama’s first two years in office.

Obama began his presidency by passing a failed

In reading Ferdinand Burns’ letter from Jan 2, I came to a slightly different conclusion.

First, my assumption is that the non-violent offenders he’s referring to are drug-related offenses or victimless crimes. In the case of minor drug offenses, we should go back to the root of the problem and ask why are we locking up people who use drugs in the first place? If they steal to support their habit, lock them up for stealing. Admittedly, many drugs aren’t good for you and a user might wreck his life, so what do we do? We lock him up and give him a criminal record that does wreck his life. Free people should be free to make

decisions for themselves, even if they are wrong. Our current method of protecting us from ourselves is causing more problems than it fixes.

Jail should be reserved for those who harm others.

As for the suggestion that we spend money used to incarcerate people on college education, I worry that we will incentivise people to commit some petty crime to get a free ride in college. Additionally, not all people are cut out for college. Interesting parallel though.

WES JOHNSTON Dalzell

In reference to Burns letter: Stupid – it’s a choice I thought about my upbringing and how it differed from the prison-bound individual. What is the best way not to go to prison? Per Mr. Burns, don’t do “stupid” things.

Agreed.

Now, to his second point: let us send them to college, presumably, to make them “smart.”

How do you take a person who insists on doing stupid things and get them to be a successful college student?

How do you change their habits or desire to be stupid?

Given the choice of paying for an education or prison, the choice is obvious. But, it does not follow that an individual that does stupid things will make the smart choice.

They choose stupid. How do we take incarcerated or soonto-be incarcerated young people and get them to choose smart?

For so long, I have seen those of us who have made smart choices have our earnings taken from us to provide for those that have made stupid choices in an effort to make them choose smart.

The stupid continue to make stupid choices (the stupid will always be among you).

Every generation has the opportunity to make smart choices. My parents worked hard and were “low income” — no welfare, no free lunches, no entitlements. I was the first in my family to go to college. I worked hard to pay for it. No lottery money, no scholarships, no grants. Because I paid for my smart choice, I valued it and protected it. Today, a qualified young person can go to college or trade school if they make smart choices.

Before we spend more money on stupid, answer this: How do we change “stupid” in someone else?

Society needs game plan, not freeloaders, Mr. Burns There may be some discrimination in sentencing in the criminal justice system, as you say. I’m not sure because I’m not a lawyer. I do know a lot of these terms for nonviolent crimes seems excessive and not a deterrent for others. That is all I can agree with.

There is a basic recipe for success, though: 1) Earn at least a high school diploma.

2) Get a job. 3) Get married before you have children.

If our young adults would concentrate of these three values, our prison populations would be drastically reduced. Has the NAACP held any assemblies in our high schools to inform our young people about being responsible citizens? Has the dropout rate improved significantly over the years?

Have our churches been doing enough to help educate young adults about responsible behavior? I think most of us know the problems, but not enough are getting together to put together a “game plan” to fix the problem.

Have you talked to Prison Wardens? We have programs in SCDC, some of them mandatory, for inmates to earn a high school diploma or a GED certificate. You have to have a GED or high school diploma to start college courses to earn credits.

Free or not, if you don’t qualify, you can’t participate.

Another thing to think about: If it’s free, it has no value.

Free education is already offered in our public schools. If a young adult isn’t interested in going to school voluntarily, what is the answer? No job, too much free time and no supervision is a recipe for disaster. Where are the parents in the development of these young people? These are problems there are no simple solutions to and just talking about them does not solve them. A plan of action to solve the problem is. The Justice system should be a last resort to solve the education problem but education is the first resort to solving the problem.

Thank you for getting the dialog started. Hopefully more leaders and readers will join the conversation and we can find avenues to correct the problem. This may be the beginning of the Happiest of New Years!

SUNDAY, JANUARY 5, 2014

JOSIE RATTZ Josie Monterey Black Rattz, passed away at home at 3:58 p.m. Jan. 3, 2014, after a long illness terminated by bone cancer.

Born Oct. 30, 1943, in North Charleston, she was a daughter of the late John Edgar Black and Lucile Fralix Black.

Rattz was a resident of North RATTZ Charleston until 1945, when her family moved to Sumter.

She graduated in 1961 from Edmunds High School with honors and distinction (i.e. National Honor Society). After nurse’s training at Baptist Hospital in Columbia, she joined the U. S. Navy WAVES in 1962 to become a Hospital Corpsman. In boot camp at Bainbridge, Md., she demonstrated superior ability, was selected for the drill team, promoted to Recruit Petty Officer 3rd Class and was appointed a flag bearer. Josie represented the Navy in parade ceremonies in Philadelphia in late 1962. At graduation, she was transferred to Hospital Corpsman School in Great Lakes, Ill., where she excelled and achieved the highest score on record for the pharmacology exams.

The Navy awarded her the National Defense Service Medal for serving her country stateside with honor and distinction during a time of war (Vietnam).

She and her husband married in 1963 and later became parents of one son. She lived in Maryland, Illinois, California and Indiana before returning to South Carolina.

In 1967, Josie cofounded Monterey Enterprises (wholesale jobbers) extending between Chicago and Milwaukee, with customers such as the Navy Exchange and Marshall Field. She was also an owner of residential rental properties. Later, she co-owned Townhouse Realty of Indiana Inc. and was a licensed real estate agent in Indiana.

Before moving to Sumter in 1985, she and her family lived in their house on Lake Marion.

Josie was a member of Crosswell Baptist Church and a former member of First Baptist Church Sumter where she helped start the Intercessory Prayer Ministry and ministered to those at Covenant Place through music and song. She also served in other capacities.

In March 2013, she and her husband celebrated their 50th anniversary.

Surviving is her husband of more than 50 years, Joseph C. Rattz of Sumter; her son, Joseph C. Rattz Jr. (Vickey) of Stockbridge, Ga.; her brother, Conway E. Black of Sumter; her sister, Claire Black Justice Pace (Phil) of Sumter; a brother-in-law, Charles H. Jones of Greensboro, N.C.; and a sister-inlaw, Carole Beatson Black of Sumter.

She was preceded in death by paternal greatgrandparents Alexander Conway Black and Hephzibah Eleanor Smith; paternal grandparents Fingal Conway Ewell

Black and Ella Cox Black; maternal greatgrandparents John Capus Fralix and Lovice Mizzell Fralix; maternal grandparents Gordon Hiram Fralix and Hattie Gibson Fralix; a brother, Fingal Gordon Black; and a half-brother, John Edgar Black Jr. Graveside services will be held at 2 p.m.

Monday in the Sumter Cemetery, 700 Oakland Ave., Sumter, with the Rev. Charles Owens officiating. Viewing will be held at the gravesite beginning at 1:15 p.m.

Personal condolences to the family may be given before or following the graveside service.

Memorials may be made to Crosswell Baptist Church, 604 Mathis St., Sumter, SC 29150.

JERRY JAMES Jerry James, also known as “Shaft,” was born Nov. 17, 1955, in Sumter, a beloved son of the late Henry and Albertha Jackson James.

He departed this life on Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2013, at the VA Dorn Medical Hospital in Columbia.

Jerry was a 1974 graduate of Sumter High School. He enlisted in the United States Army where he served for two years. He also attended Central Carolina Technical College, where he embarked on a career as a machine tool operator.

During his work history, he was employed at Electrical Wholesalers, Zimco Transportation Inc., Georgia Pacific, Gold Kist and Bosch Braking Corporation. He was a man who believed in working and taking care of his family.

YEAR IN REVIEW 2013 filled with plenty of feats

BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennisb@theitem.com The year that was 2013 was a busy one on the sports scene in Sumter, Clarendon and Lee counties.

There were several championships - both team and individual won over the 12-month period as well as news that comes about from the sports world as well.

Today, we will look at the championships and achievements that took place in the just completed year.

BARONS FOOTBALL WINS STATE

Wilson Hall rallied to defeat Hammond 34-27 for the SCISA 3A state title, the Barons’ first state crown since 2003.

Quarterback William Kinney scored on a 22yard run with 1:21 remaining in the game for the winning score.

The Barons finished the year with a perfect 13-0 mark.

SHS FOOTBALL PLAYS FOR TITLE

Under first-year head coach Reggie Kennedy, Sumter High School reeled off seven

straight victories to reach the 4A Division I state championship game.

The Gamecocks were 2-5 before winning their final four regular-season games and three state playoff games. SHS came from behind for playoff victories over Mauldin, Hillcrest and Summerville.

Sumter lost to Dutch Fork 54-14 in the title game.

Also, Crestwood won the Region VI-3A title, snapping defending state champion

Hartsville’s 21-game winning streak with a 10-7 victory in the process. The Knights lost in the second round of the playoffs to Myrtle Beach, which would go on and win the state title.

WH SOFTBALL WINS STATE

Wilson Hall won its first fast-pitch state title sweeping Orangeburg Prep in the best-of-3 SCISA 3A state championship series.

Boyd, Waktins go out in style

Tigers take ACC opener over BC

BY TIM REYNOLDS The Associated Press

BY NICHOLAS IRONSIDE Special to Greenville News CHESTNUT HILL, Mass.— Clemson rode a strong defensive performance in the first half to open Atlantic Coast Conference play Saturday with a 62-60 win over Boston College, the Tigers’ first win at Conte Forum since Feb. 10, 2009, though the Eagles BROWNELL nearly overtook the Tigers’ 14-point halftime lead.

Following a 10-2 run from Clemson (10-3 overall, 1-0 in ACC play) to start the game, Boston College cut the Tigers’ lead to 12-10 early in the first half. But the Eagles (4-11, 0-2) weren’t able to close the gap beyond that SEE TIGERS, PAGE B4

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney, center, celebrates with Orange Bowl MVP Sammy Watkins, left, and quarterback Tajh Boyd after the Tigers’ 40-35 victory over Ohio State on Friday in Miami Gardens, Fla.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Tajh Boyd went out in style.

Sammy Watkins probably played his finale as well. And Clemson even got to take a little swipe at rival South Carolina.

Two years ago, the Tigers limped out of the Orange Bowl.

This time around, they were

all smiles, and with good reason.

Boyd threw for 378 yards and five touchdowns, Watkins had a record-setting night with 16 catches for 227 yards and two scores, and No. 12 Clemson rallied to beat No. 7 Ohio State 40-35 on Friday in the Orange Bowl — a game the Tigers lost SEE ORANGE, PAGE B6

FSU, Auburn put BCS to rest for good

BY RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — There will be a funeral amid the celebration after the BCS championship game on Monday night.

No. 1 Florida State or No. 2 Auburn will be the last team to hoist the $30,000

Waterford crystal football that goes to college football’s champion and has become emblematic of the Bowl Championship Series.

Then the BCS will be buried in the Rose Bowl after 16 years of revolutionizing the sport — and frustrating so many of its fans and participants.

“We wouldn’t have a

playoff if we didn’t have the BCS,” BCS executive director Bill Hancock said Saturday during media day for the championship game.

In the end, the BCS turned out to be not a destination for college football’s postseason but part of its evolution.

Rashard Lewis added 18 points and LeBron James 15 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.

The Heat’s win was their eighth straight over the Magic. It was also Miami’s 22nd consecutive divisional victory, leaving it just one win short of tying Boston’s NBA record of 23 set in 1961.

Both teams played without starters Saturday. The Magic were without center Nik Vucevic, who missed his second straight game with a sprained left. Heat forward Shane Battier also was out with a sore quadriceps.

SCOREBOARD

Singleton rushed for a career-high 93 yards on 15 carries, including a 12-yard touchdown, against the University of Hawaii. That score was his second of the season, an outside rush like the first, he said.

Bengals try to end playoff drought against Chargers

BY JOE KAY THe Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Indianapolis quarterback Andrew Luck (12) takes off on a run during the Colts’ 45-44 AFC wild-card playoff victory over Kansas City on Saturday in Indianapolis. Indianapolis rallied from a 28-point deficit in the second half for the victory.

Luck rallies Indy to win

BY MICHAEL MAROT The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts had all the Luck — at least once the second half started.

Andrew Luck threw three touchdown passes after halftime, including a 64-yarder to a wide-open T.Y. Hilton for the goahead score with 4:22 left, leading the Colts from a four-TD deficit to an improbable 45-44 comeback victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in a wild-card game Saturday.

Indianapolis (12-5) became only the second team in playoff history to win after trailing by 28 or more points, according to STATS. The other: Buffalo over Houston 41-38 in overtime in January 1993.

The Colts will travel to either Denver or New England next weekend for the divisional round with four straight wins.

Luck was an incredible mix of good and bad, finishing 29 of 45 for 443

postseason defeat — none more stunning than this one. The eight straight losses broke a tie with the Detroit Lions for the longest playoff skid.

Alex Smith was 30 of 46 for 378 yards with four TDs and no interceptions on a day he lost his top two running backs, Jamaal Charles and Knile Davis, and starting receiver Donnie Avery to injuries.

But Luck got the last word with his jaw-dropping rally.

Things appeared bleak with Indy trailing 31-10 at halftime, and they looked even worse when Luck’s

first pass of the second half was picked off and returned to the Indy 18.

Three plays later, Smith threw a 10-yard TD pass to Davis to make it 38-10 with 13:39 left in the third quarter.

As it turned out, Luck had plenty of time to turn things around. In a big way.

With Indy in its nohuddle offense and nothing to lose, Luck started throwing the ball over the field, and Donald Brown’s 10-yard TD run made it 38-17.

Then, Luck converted a lost fumble by Smith into a 3-yard TD pass to Brown. Suddenly, it was 38-24 and the fans who were booing at halftime were in a frenzy.

The noise subsided briefly after the Chiefs turned Luck’s third interception into a 42-yard field goal, but Luck answered with a 12-yard TD pass to cut the deficit to 41-31 after three quarters.

Luck was just getting started.

Saints advance on last-second FG

BY ROB MAADDI The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — New Orleans placekicker Shayne Graham a 32-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Saints to a 26-24 victory in an NFC wild-card game on Saturday.

New Orleans will travel to Seattle for a divisional round gaame next weekend.

The score was 20-14 in favor of New Orleans entering the fourth quarter. They traded field goals before Eagles quarterback Nick Foles tossed a 3-yard touchdown pass to Zach Ertz with 4:54 left in the game.

The Saints ate off the rest of the clock to set up Graham’s game-winning kick.

Drew Brees threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Lance Moore and Mark Ingram ran in from the 4 in the third quarter to give the Saints the 20-14 advantage.

Two of the NFL’s most prolific offenses struggled to get things going early. Brees threw a pair of interceptions, the second leading to Nick Foles’ 10yard TD pass to Riley Cooper.

But the eight-time Pro Bowl quarterback bounced back with the go-ahead TD pass in the third quarter and key completions on another scoring drive.

NFL rushing champion LeSean McCoy had a 1-yard TD run on fourth-and-1.

Graham kicked a pair of field goals for the Saints. Alex Henery missed from 48 yards for Philadelphia.

The Saints (12-5) earned the franchise’s first playoff win in six tries on the road. The Eagles (107) went from worst-to-first in the NFC East under rookie coach Chip Kelly.

The teams combined for an average of 816.7 yards and 53.5 points per game during the regular season. But defense dominated early.

Down 7-6 at halftime, the Saints forced a three-

CINCINNATI — Marvin Lewis can end all those comparisons with Susan Lucci’s long run of futility — his in the NFL postseason, hers in the Emmys.

The Bengals can break one of the longest playoff droughts in league history.

Or they can ...

Well, they don’t even want to think about the alternative. The Bengals (11-5) will either break free of their playoff past or add another cementing moment to the franchise’s recent DALTON history of being a big-game dud.

The AFC North champions will host the San Diego Chargers (9-7) with everything in their favor: playing at home, where they’ve been invincible this season; facing a West Coast team playing in the Midwest cold; getting a rematch with a team they RIVERS pushed around only a month ago.

It’s been a long time since they’ve had this good a chance to get their first playoff win since the 1990 season and end the seventh-longest streak of postseason futility in NFL history.

“We’re not going to get any of (the media) to shut up about it until we win,” said Lewis, who is 0-4 in the playoffs as a head coach. “That’s the way it is and I told them that this morning, flatly, OK? “Win and you won’t have to worry about it.”

The Chargers are just relieved to have the chance. They had to win four in a row to get into the playoffs, and did it with the help of a missed field goal and an officiating error during an overtime win against Kansas City last Sunday.

Sleeves or no sleeves?

49ers, Pack prep for cold

BY GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wis. — Josh Boyd isn’t into making a fashion statement, and he doesn’t think he needs to go sleeveless to show off his toughness.

All the Packers defensive lineman wants is to stay warm in the subzero weather when Green Bay hosts the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC wild-card showdown that could be one of the coldest playoff games in NFL history.

So many intriguing story lines between these two NFC powers, and yet the arctic cold may trump them all.

“Yeah, I’m definitely going sleeves,” said Boyd, a rookie from Mississippi. “I mean, I don’t see it as a tough guy thing. I just see it as being comfortable.”

The National Weather Service forecast called for a high temperature in Green Bay on Sunday of 2 degrees, with north-northwest winds making it feel

more like minus-15 to minus-20.

The coldest NFL game on record is the 1967 championship game, known as the “Ice Bowl” won by the Packers 21-17 over the Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau Field on New Year’s Eve. The temperature dipped to minus13, and the wind chill that day was minus-48.

This might be little consolation to Boyd, for whom cold games in college meant playing in 30- or 40-degree weather.

“I’m from Mississippi, so this is a whole other animal,” Boyd said. “I’ve never seen negatives until I got here.”

Linemen are renowned for toughing out inclement weather without sleeves under jerseys. Don’t want to give the opponent even the slightest idea that you’re soft, the line of thinking goes.

Memories that last.. .

and-out on Philadelphia’s first possession of the second half. Foles was called for intentional grounding and then got sacked. The Saints took over at their 47 after a punt and Brees quickly moved them down field. He rolled out and hit Moore for a 24-yard TD for a 13-7 lead.

On the ensuing possession, the Eagles missed a big opportunity. Cooper was wide open going over the middle, but dropped a pass on third-and-4 that would’ve gone for a long gain.

“We played very, very well in the first 20 minutes,” said Clemson coach Brad Brownell. “We defended at an extremely high level.”

After the break, Clemson struggled to regain the control it had in the first half. Boston College came close to tying the game multiple times in the second half, bringing an otherwise quiet crowd to its feet when the home team looked like it might tie the game.

“They obviously made a run. We kind of kept them at bay, but then in the last two minutes we did just about everything we could to lose the game, except for fouling and making a big shot,” said Brownell.

Boston College guard Olivier Hanlan scored a game-high 27 points, including a layup on a drive to the basket with 7.9 seconds left and the ensuing free throw to make the score 61-59.

Following a made free throw by Clemson junior forward K.J. McDaniels, Hanlan was fouled on the Eagles’ final trip down the court. Hanlan made his first free throw with onesecond left in regulation, getting Boston College within two. He missed the second attempt but took down the rebound and was fouled as he went up for the shot.

With the score at 62-60, Hanlan stepped up to the line with the chance to send the game to overtime.

But the sophomore missed both free throws as the visitors breathed a huge sigh of relief.

McDaniels’ team-high 16 points and sophomore guard Rod Hall’s 12 points – including seven assists – helped Clemson hold off Boston College’s second half surge.

The win was Clemson’s second in eight trips to Chestnut Hill.

Next, Brownell and the Tigers will face Florida State at home on Thursday night. But he knows the Tigers will need to finish the game better than they did at Conte Forum.

“We were lucky to win at the end,” he said.

BCS from Page B1 Even one of its harshest critics concedes it did some good.

“It’s better than what we had, but it should have lasted four years not 16,” said Yahoo! Sports writer Dan Wetzel, who wrote the book “Death to the BCS.” The idea for the BCS came from former Southeastern Conference Commissioner Roy Kramer. The story goes that he jotted it down on a napkin. The goal was to take a bowl system that rarely matched the top two teams after the season and give it a structure that would produce 1 vs. 2 every season.

Before the BCS, there were 11 bowl games in college football history that matched the Nos. 1 and 2 teams in The Associated Press college football poll.

The BCS produced three such matchups in the first six seasons, and there was even a split championship in 2003, when Southern California finished No. 1 in the AP poll but didn’t reach the BCS title game. LSU won that.

Clearly that wasn’t what the conference commissioners who ran the system had in mind. So they tinkered, often.

“I think some of the criticism came because of the tweaks early on that were made,” Hancock said.

The LSU/USC controversy was followed a season later when the BCS’ simple, fatal flaw was exposed.

What happens when there are three worthy teams for a game built for two? Undefeated Auburn was the odd team out among perfect USC and Oklahoma. At that point many fans were in revolt and the BCS became an easy target for its detractors.

“It became cool to criticize it — which is unfortunate,” Hancock said.

Louisville: ‘No decision’ from Strong on leaving for Texas

BY GARY B. GRAVES THe Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Charlie Strong remains Louisville’s football coach for the moment, telling assistants Saturday morning he hasn’t decided to accept Texas’ offer to become its coach, but the Longhorns remained confident they would get their man.

Cardinals football spokesman Rocco Gasparro said Saturday that Strong told his staff that “no decision had been made” on whether to leave the school after four years. The coach STRONG had not met with athletic director Tom Jurich and university President James Ramsey as expected because the AD’s return from his Colorado vacation was delayed by weather.

Two people familiar with Texas’ search told The Associated Press on Saturday night that Strong was expected to accept the school’s offer to replace Mack Brown, who stepped down last month, but that no formal announcement would be made until Sunday to give Strong time to meet with Jurich. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the process had not yet been completed.

Details of Texas’ contract offer to Strong were not immediately available. Strong’s salary at Louisville is about $4 million per year. Brown was paid more than $5 million per season.

Gasparro said early Saturday there was no timetable on a decision by Strong, who is 37-15 with the Cardinals, including 3-1 in bowl games.

“It’s a difficult decision for him,” Gasparro said.

Strong, 53, met this week with new Texas athletic director Steve Patterson about the coaching vacancy, for which several prominent names have been mentioned as candidates. Among them were Florida State’s Jimbo Fisher — who signed a contract extension this week before arriving in southern California for Monday’s BCS national championship showdown with No. 2 Auburn — UCLA’s Jim Mora and Baylor’s Art Briles, both of whom said publicly they were staying in their current jobs.

Strong turned down Tennessee’s offer to become its coach in December 2012. He had two stints as an assistant at Florida, first under Steve Spurrier and then as defensive coordinator for Urban Meyer’s two national championship teams. In 2010, Louisville hired him to take over the program and he quickly righted the Cardinals, who are moving into the Atlantic Coast Conference next season.

Mizzou beats OSU in Cotton Bowl

BY STEPHEN HAWKINS The Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — For No. 9 Missouri, the Cotton Bowl was more than just a meeting with old rival Oklahoma State.

This game was about maintaining the SEC’s decade-long Cotton Bowl dominance in which the Tigers were responsible for the league’s only blemish.

“That was always in the back our mind,” said running back Henry Josey, who ran for three touchdowns. “We had to hold up the rep for the SEC.” Josey’s final score was a 16-yarder with 3:08 left to finally put Mizzou ahead to stay in a wild fourth quarter, and Shane Ray returned a fumble 73 yards for a touchdown after that in a 41-31 victory over the No. 13 Cowboys late Friday night.

The former Big 12 and Big Eight rivals traded scores on six consecutive possessions in the fourth quarter, until Oklahoma State quarterback Clint Chelf was sacked by Michael Sam and fumbled with a minute left. Ray scooped up the ball and rumbled down the sideline in front of the stunned Cowboys bench to score.

“The first thing I started screaming. I didn’t want him to pick it up and bobble it, then they get the ball back,” Tigers coach Gary Pinkel said. “I was mad for about 2 yards after he picked it up and started running with it. Then I re-evaluated myself and thought it was a good idea.”

SEC East champion Missouri (12-2) matched its school record for victories and gave the SEC its 10th win in the last 11 Cotton Bowls, all against the Big 12. The

Tigers were the only Big 12 team in that span to win, six years ago in their other 12-win season.

The end of the Cotton Bowl was eerily similar for the Cowboys (10-3) to their regular-season finale a month ago, a 33-24 home loss to Oklahoma that cost them the Big 12 title and a spot in the Bowl Championship Series.

Desmond Roland had a goahead 1-yard run with 1:46 left that day, but the Sooners drove to score with 19 seconds left and added a 3-yard fumble recovery for a score on the final play of that game.

“It’s tough. We had two opportunities to do that, and came up short both times,” Chelf said. “It’s disappointing.”

The Gamecocks reached the 4A lower state title game, losing to Goose Creek 63-47. SHS finished with an 18-11 record.

The Lady Knights played for the 3A lower state crown, losing to Orangeburg-Wilkinson 3526. They closed the year with a 23-6 mark.

HUNT WINS HALF MARATHON

Sumter’s Heather Hunt won the Dasani Half Marathon in Myrtle Beach in February. The victory has motivated her to consider preparing for the U.S. Olympic Trials for the marathon in the 2016 Olympics.

It would be her third Olympics trial; Hunt was 56th in the ‘04 trials and 95th in the ‘08 trials.

CATOE, UMBAUGH WIN MIXED TITLE

Emma Catoe and Sam Umbaugh of Wilson Hall won the mixed doubles title in the SCISA Open tournament.

Umbaugh and Catoe beat Kendall Henry and Caroline Gore of Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach 6-3, 6-1 to win the tournament held at Palmetto Tennis Center.

WILSON HALL BASEBALL PLAYS FOR TITLE

Wilson Hall reached the SCISA 3A state championship series, but lost the best-of-3 series to Hammond 2-1.

The Skyhawks won the series in dramatic fashion. Hammond’s Jae Roberts hit a walkoff, 3-run home run for a 7-4, 8-inning victory at Carolina Stadium in Columbia.

The baseball teams from Sumter and East Clarendon won district titles in their respective state playoffs to advance to the lower state tournaments where each was eliminated.

EC GIRLS TENNIS PLAYS FOR TITLE

East Clarendon reached the championship match of the 1A state playoffs, losing to Christ Church 6-0.

The Lady Wolverines finished the year with an 8-4 mark.

Wilson Hall girls basketball head coach Glen Rector picked up his 600th career victory in the Lady Barons’ 39-32 win over Carolina Academy on Dec. 3.

Rector is in his 11th season

Roland bulled through the line with 5 minutes left in the Cotton Bowl for a 2-yard TD, dragging Ray with him into the end zone.

Ray hit him at the line but couldn’t keep the running back from scoring the TD that gave the Cowboys their only lead, 31-27, only a few minutes after they thought they had a game-turning play.

Oklahoma State cornerback Tyler Patmon was in the end zone with his jubilant teammates after returning an interception for an apparent go-ahead touchdown with about 9 minutes left. A penalty flag, though, quickly doused the celebration and Mizzou turned the break into a tiebreaking field goal.

MCDOWELL THIRD TEAM ALL-ACC

Former Sumter High School standout running back Roderick McDowell had to wait until his redshirt senior season to get a chance to start for Clemson. He made the most of it.

McDowell was named third team All-Atlantic Coast Conference by the ACC coaches. He finished his career on Friday, rushing for 68 yards on 12 carries and catching four passes for 32 yards in the Tigers’ 40-35 victory over Ohio State in the Orange Bowl. McDowell finished the year with 1,024 yards and five touchdowns on 189 carries.

Clemson DE Beasley might be headed to NFL

BY STEVEN WINE The Associated Press MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Clemson junior defensive end Vic Beasley might have tipped his hand regarding his NFL plans following Friday night’s 40-35 victory over Ohio State in the Orange Bowl.

“It’s a great achievement, being able to put on a good show and leave Clemson University on a good note,” Beasley said.

When asked if the comment meant he had decided to turn pro, Beasley said no. But when asked if his remark should be taken as a clue, he couldn’t resist a sheepish grin.

Beasley had a sack and four tackles for losses against the Buckeyes.

He led Clemson this season with 13 sacks.

Two Tigers receivers who might skip their senior season in 2014 to turn pro were noncommittal about their plans.

Sammy Watkins and Martavis Bryant said they remained undecided.

“I’m definitely going to sit down and talk to the coaches and my parents when I head back to Clemson,” Wat-

“It will be a short conversation,” coach Dabo Swinney responded with a laugh.

Watkins had an Orange Bowl-record 227 yards receiving on 16 catches and scored twice. Bryant also had two touchdown receptions.

ORANGE from Page B1 by 37 points just two years ago.

“Two years ago we got our butts kicked on this field,” Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said. “And it has been a journey to get back. We’re 22-4 since that night. And we are the first team from the state of South Carolina to ever win a BCS game.”

Boyd’s 5-yard pass to Stanton Seckinger with 6:16 remaining put the Tigers (11-2) ahead to stay, despite allowing 20 consecutive points in wasting an early 11-point lead. Watkins became Clemson’s career receptions leader and set an Orange Bowl record for yardage, in what’s expected to be his last game before turning pro. Martavis Bryant caught two more TD passes for the Tigers, who posted consecutive 11-win seasons for the first time in school history.

“It’s a very special night,” Boyd said.

“Just the significance of this game, not for me particularly, not for this team particularly, but for this university ... I couldn’t pick a better way to go out as a senior.”

He likely wasn’t thinking that after his final pass as a Tiger, one that was intercepted near midfield with 1:27 left. But Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller — who was shaken up in the fourth quarter, saying afterward he had a cracked rib and a shoulder issue — was picked off two plays later, and the Tigers ran out the clock.

Miller threw for 234 yards and Carlos Hyde ran for 113 more for Ohio State (12-2), which led 29-20 in the second half but wound up losing its second straight game — after having won each of its previous 24 under coach Urban Meyer, whose record in Bowl Championship Series games fell to 4-1. Corey Brown had 116 yards receiving for the Buckeyes.

“It’s going to sting for a while, probably a long while because we didn’t finish,” Meyer said. “It was right there.”

Ohio State wound up allowing 115 points in the season’s final three games.

The Buckeyes gave up exactly that many in the season’s first six games.

“We’re not a championship-caliber defense right now,” Meyer said.

The Buckeyes took that 29-20 lead after Hyde picked up 31 yards on 4thand-inches, then went airborne to break the plane of the goal line on the next play.

“I felt like the offense was starting to get clicking at that point,” Hyde said. “I thought we could make it happen.”

Then the mistakes started coming in

Miller said he was also undecided about whether to turn pro, and would look to coach Urban Meyer for guidance.

“I have to sit down with Coach Meyer and just think it out throughout the whole process with how it goes. I don’t want to make a decision that I really didn’t do my research on,” Miller said.

bunches for Ohio State. A fumbled punt return and an interception led to touchdown grabs by Watkins and Bryant, putting the Tigers up entering the fourth.

Hyde caught a 14-yard scoring pass from Miller with 11:35 left, giving the Buckeyes a one-point lead, but Clemson and Boyd went on one last scoring march to give the Tigers the BCS win they’ve been seeking for years.

Boyd finished with 505 all-purpose yards, outgaining Ohio State by 78 yards himself.

“What a legacy,” Swinney said. “He put an exclamation point on it tonight.”

When Clemson played in the Orange Bowl two years ago, the Tigers gave up 21 points in the final 2:29 of the first half, letting a close game get blown wide open on the way to a 70-33 loss to West Virginia.

This time, the game didn’t get away.

Boyd’s 3-yard touchdown pass to Bryant had Ohio State facing a 20-9 deficit, but two scores in a 3½-minute span gave the Buckeyes a 22-20 halftime lead.

Clemson left Jeff Heuerman wide open down the middle for a 57-yard touchdown pass from Miller, making it a onescore game. And on a drive aided by a 15-yard penalty against Clemson’s Darius Robinson, Miller ran in from 3 yards with 12 seconds left to give the Buckeyes their first lead.

But the game changed again, and in the end, Boyd and the Tigers were standing tall.

Replacing Boyd could be good competition

BY SCOTT KEEPFER Greenville News CLEMSON— Shortly after Tajh Boyd had thrown the last pass of his Clemson career and the ink had dried on his final statistical resume Friday night, the question that hadn’t been a question for three years finally surfaced: Who will be Clemson’s next quarterback?

With Boyd bound for the NFL with a book-bag-full of records, accomplishments and accolades, coach Dabo Swinney’s most urgent task at hand is finding a capable replacement who will slide into offensive coordinator Chad Morris’ game as seamlessly as possible.

Stay tuned, because it should be fun.

“I’m excited to see the quarterback situation (this spring),” Morris said.

“It’s going to be a great battle.”

The competition promises to be hot and heavy, for sure, with the early leaders being junior Cole Stoudt and sophomore Chad Kelly.

And don’t look over your shoulders now, guys, but rookie dualthreat quarterback Deshaun Watson – the nation’s No. 1 prospect at his position, according to ESPN – will be a mid-year enrollee at Clemson this week.

“Who knows what these guys are going to do,” Morris said. “I have a feeling about what should take place.

When someone leaves, someone comes in and takes on their role.”

For their parts, both Stoudt and Kelly have exhibited flashes of considerable talent even in limited playing time behind Boyd.

“It has been my best season so far, but I’ve got a lot improve on,” Stoudt said. “I’m nowhere near perfect.”

Actually, Stoudt was rather close to perfect on Sept. 8, when he completed 19 of 20 passes for 143 yards and three touchdowns in a 52-13 win against S.C. State. His 95-percent completion rate broke the school record of 94.1 percent set by Woody Dantzler against The Citadel in 2000.

Stoudt led the nation in completion percentage (79.7) this season among players with at least 50 passing attempts and had five touchdown passes against no interceptions and a 166.7 passing efficiency rating.

He is a prime example of a player who has been patient while awaiting his opportunities.

“When I came here what I learned was that you can’t have what you want right away,” Stoudt said. “You have to learn so much because the game’s so much faster. Each day I’ll prepare myself more and more, and then through that my reward will come. If I’m not the starter, I’m not the starter, but I’ll know that I’m going to make myself the best that I can be.

“Competition is one of the biggest parts of college football. If you don’t have competition, you can’t really get better. It’s going to be a good spring.”

Stoudt realizes that he’s no lock to inherit the position simply because he’s been here longer than his competition.

“I have that mindset, but it’s all about the coaches and how you perform,” Stoudt said.

He said he’ll also help ease Watson into the fold.

“Tajh did the same thing for me and so did all the other guys,” Stoudt said. “When I walked in they put their arm around me and said, ‘Alright, here’s how you do things.’”

While Stoudt has built his reputation primarily with his arm, Kelly has shown a knack for making plays with his feet this season despite coming off surgery for a torn ACL suffered last spring. In the Tigers’ 59-10 win at Virginia on Nov. 2, Kelly rushed for 56 yards and a touchdown on just seven carries. He totaled 117 yards rushing on 16 attempts this season, an average of 7.3 yards per rush, and completed 10 of 17 passes for 58 yards.

He was anticipating the impending quarterback battle even as the Tigers readied for the Orange Bowl.

“My approach for spring started a couple of weeks ago,” Kelly said. “I’m just going to go in there trying to get better every day, really – that’s about it.”

Kelly said he expects a few awkward moments as the competition heats up in earnest, but that comes with the territory when multiple players are all competing for the same thing.

“On the field there can be a little tension because you’re trying to compete, but off the field you’re still friends – everybody likes each other,” Kelly said. “It could get a little awkward sometimes if someone doesn’t do good and the next person does real good, and you can kind of feel the tension, but we all deal with that.”

Traditional revelry ushers in Carnival

BY IVY MOORE ivym@theitem.com

F

or many of us, it’s really hard to give up Christmas each year. It’s hard to take down all those decorations we so painstakingly put up, change out the seasonal carols – except for “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” – on iPods and CD players, stop drinking eggnog, say goodbye to family who must go back home a day or two after Dec. 25 and hardest of all, just feel that “spirit of Christmas” slowly fade.

However!

Christmas doesn’t really end until Twelfth Night, also called Epiphany, and that’s Monday, so there’s still time to celebrate. You don’t necessarily have to exit the season with 12 drummers drumming, either. Instead, why not celebrate Twelfth Night in keeping with the old traditions?

First, though, how do we figure Jan. 6 as Twelfth Night?

It’s just a little bit confusing. And the explanations can be pretty puzzling, too.

One generally accepted explanation that makes sense is that Dec. 25 is not actually the “first day of Christmas,” but that the 12 days of Christmas are those that immediately follow Christmas Day, the days between the birth of Christ and the Epiphany, when the

wise men, also known as the magi or the three kings, arrived at the manger.

So how did people celebrate long ago?

They had Twelfth Night parties, in which social rules were flaunted , often even reversed. Men and women swapped their clothing and their roles, which were much more gender-specific than in modern times (at least in the U.S. and other Western countries). Party guests chose a Lord of Misrule to preside over the festivities, albeit his authority was very tenuous, and he endured a lot of harassment from his “subjects.”

Many modern parties also follow that structure.

As with many of our modern Christmas celebrations, Twelfth Night parties have their roots in pagan customs such SEE TWELFTH NIGHT, PAGE C4

The three wise men arrive at the manger 12 days after the birth of the baby Jesus in this painting by Peter Paul Rubens, “The Adoration of the Magi.” The event is typically celebrated on Jan. 6, also known as Epiphany and/or Twelfth Night.

Sumter High commencement begins — Witnessed by a capacity audience, seniors of Sumter High School celebrated the first of their two nights of commencement exercises in Girls’ High auditorium last night, the 50th anniversary of such exercises in the history of public schools in Sumter.

Lincoln High holds graduation exercises — Graduating from Lincoln High School, 56 students received their diplomas ending their high school career at the commencement exercises on

Everett Roberts of the class of ’37 was awarded the Scholarship medal. The Declaimer’s medals were won by Madge Tarleton and Harry Wilson of the class of 1940. Everett Roberts, class of ’39, was presented the English medal.

Schools to get improvements — The high schools of Sumter County will benefit from a recent W.P.A. allotment. Already plans for a gymnasium at Pinewood High School have been completed, and as soon as work gets under way there, construction of a gym at Shiloh will be considered. Next in line will be Hillcrest, and if that goes well, there is a possibility that Mayesville, also, will have one.

These buildings will con-

The W.P.A. will contribute all of the labor and part of the material; each district will have to put up $5,000, $1,000 of which the county will give. The remaining $4,000 will be obtained from district taxes or borrowed by the district.

Sumter fans are thoroughly sold on Junior Legion baseball. The brand of ball may not be as flawless as minor and big league teams present, but it more than makes up for this deficiency in fight and spirit. Coaches Riley and Riggins apparently have a good team under development this season and with a little more practice the boys will be ready to meet on even terms the best the state can offer.

Don’t be that wedding guest that wears white

BY LISA A. FLAM Associated Press Writer Of Tiffany Schutt’s 250 wedding guests, one surely stood out.

Not only was she not invited, but the young guest, a relative with whom the couple wasn’t particularly close, turned up in a white dress — and a short and sexy one at that.

In fact, she was one of five uninvited relatives whose names were added to invited guests’ response cards. Schutt, who married in Indianapolis, was flattered but also in disbelief that they so badly wanted to attend.

“We are very laid-back, thankfully, so that day I took it in stride,” she said. “It just seemed not to be the best etiquette.”

When it comes to manners, experts say wedding guests do well overall but are still causing headaches on a few fronts.

“The No. 1 thing that I hear about from frustrated brides is guests not RSVPing, not RSVPing on time or RSVPing for more than one person,” said Anna Post, great-great-granddaughter of Emily Post and coauthor of the upcoming new edition of “Emily Post’s Wedding Etiquette”. “It’s all about

the RSVP.” Blame it on the relaxed culture, busy lives or the hope of a better Saturday night offer, but some people just can’t get it together to mail the response card back. And don’t get brides started on the guests who say they will attend, only to end up as no-shows.

“People have gotten casual about this,” Post says. “When it comes to the wedding they think, it’s not a big deal. I’m just one person, it’ll be fine. And it’s really not. It’s a lot of money and a lot of stress for the couple.”

Brides and grooms might want to add a cushion of a week or so before they have to give a headcount to the caterer or venue so they can chase people down.

“The key is to keep the frustration out of your voice,” Post says. “It can’t be those sweet words with a nasty tone because that defeats the purpose of wanting to invite them in the first place. You can’t say, ‘I’m so annoyed with you, you’re uninvited.’”

New York wedding planner Marcy Blum suggests adding an enclosure with the invitation listing an email address people can use to RSVP or ask questions.

Brides put thought into addressing their invitations, which spell out exactly who is invited.

When guests treat the RSVP card like a write-in ballot, a phone call is in order, Post said, so they understand that their date or child was not invited.

Some parents don’t like leaving their children home, but experts urge couples to resist such pressure.

“Do not cave to this, because it’s completely unfair to all the guests who do find child care and respect your wishes,” Post says.

Besides RSVPs, another etiquette trouble spot is smartphones — in particular, those guests who crowd the aisle to take pictures and then post the images online before the ceremony is even over, scooping the couple’s wedding photographer.

“A bride is very particular about how she looks at her wedding, and she does not want the photo that isn’t the most possible flattering photo to be all over Facebook before she gets to look at her wedding shots,” Blum said.

Photos aside, phones detract from the solemnity of the ceremony.

“If you’re so busy tweeting and Instagraming, you’re not

paying attention,” Blum said.

“It’s almost a cosmic faux pas.

People want your energy with them and focused on what they’re doing.”

Blum, who has planned the nuptials for notables like LeBron James and George Soros, says couples can try to head this off by including a note in the welcome gift or on the program. The officiant or best man can make an announcement, or you can place a sign at the entryway.

Keeping guests from snapping away at the reception, though, may be a losing fight, Post says, though couples can ask guests to refrain from posting the photos online.

“I would pick and choose your battles,” she said. “The ceremony is the right place to focus.”

Other do’s and don’ts for guests: DRESS

Don’t be too informal, and avoid wearing anything that’s too sexy, too over-the-top or too white. Blum notes a resurgence of women wearing white to weddings, and says brides don’t appreciate that on their big day in white.

“For many, many years it was never an issue because etiquette was stricter all around,

so people didn’t do it,” Blum said. “Now that things have loosened up a bit, that is something that brides still get very upset about.”

GIFTS

Some regional traditions may call for bringing the gift to the wedding, but experts say that in general they are best sent ahead of time, avoiding the possibility of theft and the hassle for the couple of hauling them home. If not, a gift should be sent within three months, Post says.

BEHAVIOR

Arrive early, and stay to dance, mingle and converse at dinner. “Being social and engaged is one of the best ways to be a good guest, along with not getting too drunk, or drunk period,” Post says.

TOASTS

Toasts to the couples can get out of hand if guests, sometimes tipsy ones, start asking for the microphone.

Proper form says guests should not speak unless they are asked or receive permission.

Despite reality shows sensationalizing crazy wedding behavior, Blum says guests do seem better behaved today as couples create their guest lists with great care.

Many are busy making resolutions about how to improve and better their lives. A New Year’s resolution that includes exercise and physical activity is a GREAT way to start.

Sumter County on the Move! (SCOTM!), a group-based walking program, has a few useful tips to help with achieving your exercise goals!

• Make a realistic plan and avoid overwhelming expectations.

• Select physical activities that you enjoy. They don’t have to be boring!

Some people prefer jogging on a treadmill, while others find walking outdoors, alone or with friends, more appealing. Whatever your preference, you will be more likely to stick with an activity if you like it.

• Make exercise a convenient part of your weekly routine.

• Set goals that are measurable and specific.

A measurable goal will include an easily documented specific activity and time period, like walking on three days per

week during lunch hour, bicycling one day in the neighborhood after work/during the weekend, or climbing the stairs for 10 minutes, three times per day, on one day per week.

• Get moving towards achieving your goals.

Start low, and go slow!

Don’t run a marathon after only a week of exercise! Instead, begin by doing what is healthy and safe, even if it’s just a few extra steps in your house.

Challenge yourself to work toward meeting the national physical activity recommendations for healthy adults! For good health benefits, aim for at least 150 minutes (30 minutes a day, five days per week) of moderate-

intensity aerobic activity such as brisk walking. Try to engage in activity for at least 10 minutes at a time. Set yourself up for success by breaking larger physical activity goals into smaller goals. In no time, you may find that you can remain active for longer periods.

• Put your plans and goals in writing and track (log) your progress over time. Monitoring your activity will help you track successes and areas that need improvement.

A log doesn’t have to be anything special, just an easy way to jot down your activity and time.

Visit the SCOTM! website, http://www.sumtercountymoves.org/ to download a personal

goal contract, a userfriendly exercise log and additional resources such as the Sumter County Walk Map. •As with any plans for increasing physical activity, be sure to consult with your doctor or health care professional before beginning. Many a New Year’s resolution has been dropped due to muscle soreness or injury. Be careful not to overdo it.

SCOTM! congratulates Rachel McCain who recently completed the 12 month program and has made walking a regular lifestyle habit.

These SCOTM! members recently finished their first six months in the program: Lady Bell,

Johnnell Colclough, Margaret Greene, Linda Heishman, Katherine Howard, Sarah Mathis, Wendy Martin, Michelle Miller Timothy Samuel, Marguerite Wilder and Katrina Wright-Allison.

REFLECTIONS

Wateree bridge deemed an ‘engineering marvel’ During the early years of settlement of the South Carolina Midlands, ferries were used to cross many of the rivers and streams. According to Cassie Nicholes, “when trade was begun with the new state capital, Columbia, a ferry over the Wateree River became important, to the people of the High Hills especially. This ferry was first known as Simmons Ferry, but the name was changed to Brisbane in 1783 when Adam Fowler Brisbane came into possession of that part of the Wateree Swamp.” n June 15, 1920, the citizens of Sumter were given the opportunity to voice their opinions to the Sumter County Board of Commissioners concerning the expenditure of $65,000 for the purpose of “cooperating with Richland County and the State Highway Commission in the construction of a bridge across the Wateree River and approximately four miles of causeway on the Sumter County side of said river.”

In January of 1921, it was announced that plans were completed by the state highSammy way department WAY in Columbia for the construction of the Wateree Bridge to be erected at Garners Ferry. Chief Engineer Charles Moorefield stated that when funding was resolved, the state transportation department would advertise for bids.

The bridge was to be constructed of steel at a cost of $150,000, including some government funding. On May 15, 1921, R.E. Hardaway Jr. of Hardaway Construction Co. received the contract for the project on the Richland County side and announced that work would begin at the river as soon as the heavy equipment could be moved from a work site near Camden. The machinery was moved down the river on barges, and work began using four gangs of men, with each gang consisting of 12 men. Simons and Mayrant of Charleston were low bidders for the Wateree Bridge approach from the Sumter side.

Work on this side of the project included a “temporary reflections

road through the swamp and about four miles out to the highlands at Stateburg. On the Richland side, the work runs from the bridge about one-and-a-half miles out and will be permanent.”

The road would prove advantageous to both counties, as they were previously required to connect through the massive Wateree Swamp via a roundabout way through Camden. The road to be built through the swamp was temporary; unfortunately, it was not constructed above the high water mark, making it unusable when the river was in flood stage, a frequent occurrence.

In 1939, South Carolina undertook the largest grading project in its history as it authorized the movement of 1,235,000 cubic yards of gravel, intending to raise the Wateree causeway to 20.5 feet above the swamp level, thus eliminating the frequent closing of the road because of flooding.

Work began Nov. 14, 1938 and involved 100 men directed by the John E. Ballenger

Construction Co. The project consisted of the construction of several bridges including a massive steel structure which spanned the river.

Massive repairs and upgrades were made to the bridge beginning in 1986, when “demolition crews began the slow task of razing the old Wateree Bridge on U.S. 76/378. A crane was used to remove the pilings from several sections of the 65-year-old metal truss structure. A new reinforced concrete and structural steel bridge was built.”

The project, taking two years to complete, greatly facilitated travel between Sumter and the state capital.

On this page is a look back at the beginning of this gigantic renovation.

Mystery plant is a native of Madagascar

BY JOHN NELSON USC Herbarium Curator There are hundreds of species of plants that people refer to as “succulents.” We had one as a Mystery Plant only recently! Here’s another one.

All of the succulent plants have one thing in common: fleshy leaves and/or stems, and an ability to conserve water. Succulence is an obvious advantage to plants that grow in dry areas, and most succulent plants evolved in arid ecosystems, including deserts. It is true, however, that many desert plants are not succulents, but these plants have usually developed other strategies for protection from water loss.

A common misconception is that all succulent plants are cacti. Cacti are indeed succulents, but there are many, many species of succulents that are not at all related to cacti, even they may share some resemblance. Just because a plant has sharp, pointy leaves, or stickers all over it does not make it a cactus. For that matter, there are plenty of cacti that don’t have any stickers or spines. Thus, yucca and century-plant belong to the lily family, starfish flower and rope-plant belong to the milkweed family, crown-of-thorns belongs to the oleander family, and “ghost-plant,” that we read about recently, is a member of the “stonecrop” family.

There are even truly succulent members of the sunflower family.

This week’s mystery plant is

also a member of the stonecrop family. It belongs to a group, or genus, that is found naturally in warm parts of the world, especially South Africa and southern Asia. Our mystery plant is a native of Madagascar. It produces fabulous tubular, pink (or red) flowers, which dangle on the tall stem.

It is extremely easy to grow — as long as it is not overwatered — outside during the summer, but must be brought indoors before frost, or be given a lot of protection, as it is quite cold-sensitive.

Probably the most interesting thing about this plant involves its peculiar foliage.

Each leaf is prominently notched along both edges. Inside each notch is a cluster of cells which eventually will develop into a tiny little plant all on its own, with tiny little leaves, a tiny little stem and tiny little roots. It’s what you could call a “plantlet.” After a

while, and when the little plantlets get big enough, every one of them will fall off or be knocked off the leaf on which they started, falling down to the ground below, and starting up an entirely new individual.

This is a remarkable example of vegetative reproduction: Each plantlet produced is a clone, or copy, of the “parent” from which it came. By the way, this is a really cool plant for kids to grow.

There’s a saying that history repeats itself and in the Stoddard family, it’s being borne out. Martha Graham Stoddard, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Hugh T. Stoddard, won the contest. The eighth-grader’s feat was a repeat of that performed by her brother, Hugh Jr., when he was an eighth-grader at the same school.

Martha will now compete in the state contest at Clemson in May, with the winner of that competition sent to the national event in Washington.

TWELFTH NIGHT from Page C1 as the Roman Saturnalia and the Celtic festival Samhain.

In Great Britain, it’s considered bad luck to take down Christmas decorations after Twelfth Night, so you’ll find many families feverishly undecorating their homes before midnight. Those tree spirits who live in the trees and other foliage are said to cause a lot of trouble for families who keep them inside beyond Jan. 6.

Of course, the nativity scene is a different story, since the three wise men didn’t get to the manger until Twelfth Night. In fact, some people set up their nativity scenes with the wise men “off in the distance” and move them slowly toward the manger until Epiphany, when they finally get to join the holy family.

Since Twelfth Night marks the end of the Christmas season, it begins the carnival season, the days leading up to Ash Wednesday. January 6 celebrations in the U.S. are simpler than those in New Orleans and Mexico, where parties often require costumes and feature a King Cake. A simple, cinnamon-flavored yeast cake iced in green, gold and purple, the King Cake has a coin or a tiny plastic or porcelain baby hidden inside.

The person who gets this token in his or her piece wins the honor of hosting a party during the year or providing the next year’s King Cake.

Likely, you’ll need a beverage to wash down your cake. The traditional beverage called Lamb’s Wool seems to fit the bill. To make it, add cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and a little sugar to hot cider, with or without the alcoholic beverage of your choice. Perhaps the name refers either to the “woolly brain” feeling after drinking a lot of Lamb’s Wool or to the feeling in the mouth the morning after overindulging. Don’t forget to pour a little on your apple tree to help them produce in the new year.

Carnival season lasts until the beginning of Lent (Ash Wednesday), which this year falls on Feb. 5.

Twelfth Night was so popular a celebration in Elizabethan England that William Shakespeare based a comedy on it. Unrequited love, cross-dressing, overindulgence in food and drink, dancing, mistaken identities and revelry have a prominent place in the plot.

Choose your king or queen as your co-ruler Monday night, order your guests to perform harmless, but hilarious deeds, have some King Cake and Lamb’s Wool and have fun. But remember, your “subjects” could seek revenge on Jan. 6, 2015.

Attaining the ranks of gallon donors were C. Edward Damron, Mrs. J.J. McFadden, F.D. Ramsey and Thomas W. Windham. Recruitment for the operation, conducted at the USO, was handled by members of the Junior Welfare League. Collections came to 130 pints of blood.

Rabies clinic to start — The annual rabies clinic for Sumter County begins Monday and will continue through April 18.

Dr. G.R. Kitchen, county veterinarian, said the first inoculation session will be held from 9 a.m. till noon Monday at the overhead bridge. A second session will be from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Highway section shed on East Calhoun St. 4-H’ers make good — Sumter 4-H’ers made creditable showings at last week’s Orangeburg Fat Stock Show and Sale. Carrol Pitts’ reserve champion calf, weighing in at a hefty 1,015 pounds, was graded prime and sold for 38 cents a pound. The local Harvin Packing Co. bought the youngster’s prize entry.

School papers score — “The Biddy,” McLaurin Junior High’s school paper, was declared the all-state winner of the S.C. Scholastic Press Assn. meeting in Columbia yesterday. Advisor for the staff is Mrs. Margaret McKeown. The paper was also awarded a trophy for amassing the top score in the competition. The staff took a sweepstakes award in the newspaper-of -the-month contest, and second place in the story-of-themonth junior division.

The Edmunds High School paper, “Hi-News,” was given an honor award in the senior division. Two of its staff members also placed. David Lunan received a first in photography for activities and third place in the sweepstakes division. Meredith Drakeford of Edmunds placed second for his sports story with “Hi-News” also taking a second in the storyof-the-month contest.

Sports news — Chalking up their 10th win in a row yesterday were members of the Sumter High baseball team, downing Camden 10-1 at Riley Park.

“We gave ‘em one run in the sixth on an error,” pointed out Coach Bob Matthews, who was pleased with the way his charges performed. Darrell Thompson turned in a fine mound stint, tossing a 1-hitter. “He kept the ball low and they kept hitting it on the ground,” the coach explained.

Four batters went down swinging while five drew walks.

Robert Bradley and Bobby Jordan, a pair of hard-hitting outfielders, came through with big blows for the Birds.

Bradley stroked a home run over the left-center field wall 375 feet away driving in two mates ahead of himself. Jordan powered a home run also, accounting for five runsbatted-in during the game.

Tomorrow the Birds unleash their power up at Lancaster. Bradley or Winston Jewel is nominated to hurl.

Former mayor named chairman of bank board FROM STAFF REPORTS The National Bank of South Carolina recently named former Sumter mayor Stephen M. Creech the new chairman of its South Carolina Board of Directors. Creech served as mayor of Sumter from 1988 to 2000.

“NBSC was founded in 1905 in Sumter, and this is a humbling experience for me. It’s a real honor,” Creech said. “I look forward to continuing the progress we’ve been making for our banks.”

Creech is principal owner of Creech, Roddey, Watson Insurance Company in Sumter. Originally from Sumter, he is a long-

time resident of Sumter County. He is currently also serving as chairman of the Sumter Chamber of Commerce Military Affairs Committee.

“Steve has been a valuable member of the NBSC Board since 1996, and we are delighted he has taken on this expanded role,” said Chuck Garnett, NBSC CEO. “As a proven leader, he represents the commitment of NBSC to the customers and communities we serve.”

NBSC is a division of Synovus Bank — a Georgia-chartered, FDIC-insured bank — and currently serves 26 communities in South Carolina from 42 locations.

Taxes go up for many in 2013

BY JADE ANDERSON janderson@theitem.com Now that you have officially switched calendars, it’s time to think about taxes.

Well, sort of. Whether you file electronically or via paper forms, the Internal Revenue Service has announced it will not begin processing 2013 taxes until Jan. 31.

“The April 15 deadline is still in place,” said Shelly Lundberg, certified public accountant and owner of Shelly A. Lundberg, CPA. “That really makes it hard for (those) who are just in the tax preparation business.”

Some companies will probably accept tax returns in January and hold those until the IRS systems open at the end of January, according to the Dec. 20 edition of ReveNews, a weekly electronic newsletter put out by the S.C. Department of Revenue.

There are also a number of changes to the federal tax code when it comes to filing 2013 taxes.

ARE YOU MARRIED?

If you are, you may pay more taxes.

“It used to be that whatever was your taxable rate as a single was doubled for married filing jointly,” Lundberg said. “Not anymore.

It’s almost like they brought back the marriage penalty.”

DO YOU DEDUCT MEDICAL EXPENSES?

If you are under 65, medical expenses must add up to 10 percent of your adjusted gross income to file itemized deductions, Lundberg said.

If you are over 65, it will hold at the 7-and-a-half percent through 2016.

IF YOU MAKE $200K OR MORE, YOU’RE PROBABLY GOING TO PAY MORE.

“The new top tax rate for an individual has gone back to 39.6 percent,” Lundberg said. “The last time we had that high a tax bracket was 2000.”

The threshold is $250,000 for single filers and $300,000 for married filing jointly.

If you’re single and your adjusted gross income is $200,000 or if you are married filing jointly and your AGI is $250,000,

TAX TIDBITS • The average processing time for your return is three or more weeks if you use the paper form.

• If you use an electronic filing option, it could take as little as 12 days.

• Returns that require review or adjustments will take longer to process.

• As of Dec. 11, the S.C. Department of Revenue had processed 2,553,353 returns. Of those, 737,636 were paper returns, and 1,8157,717 were electronic returns.

• The IRS reports 122 million individual income tax returns filed electronically in 2013, up from 119.6 million in 2012. Of that total, 45.2 million came from home filers, and preparer filing increased slightly to 77 million returns.

SOURCES: SCTAX.ORG AND REVENEWS

you will have an additional 3.8 percent tax on top of your normal income tax bracket to help fund the Affordable Care Act, Lundberg said.

People who have wages over $200,000 filing single or $250,000 filing jointly will also see a 0.9-percent extra Medicare tax coming out of their paycheck.

Lundberg recommends that, while some people are comfortable filing their own taxes, those who are not comfortable with the process might find it in their best interests to turn to a professional.

“If there is anything you don’t understand, it would be worth it for you to talk to a qualified professional,” Lundberg said.

“If the person doesn’t know the laws and takes a guess at it themselves or if a person prepares it wrong, the taxpayer is still ultimately responsible.”

She recommended checking with the S.C. Association of CPAs or the Department of Labor to see if the tax agency you are working with is in good standing.

Machinist Joel Hetland holds up a “No” sign at a rally asking members to vote against a proposed contract Thursday in Seattle. National leaders at the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers recently announced a vote on Boeing’s proposal despite the objections of local union leaders who had rejected the offer.

Boeing machinists OK contract tied to 777X

BY MANUEL VALDES The Associated Press SEATTLE (AP) — The stakes were high and the vote was close as Boeing production workers agreed to concede some benefits in order to secure assembly of the new 777X airplane for the Puget Sound region.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and Boeing hailed Friday’s vote, which proponents said solidifies the aerospace giant’s presence in the Seattle area.

“Tonight, Washington state secured its future as the aerospace capital of the world,” Inslee declared.

Under the terms of the eightyear contract extension, Boeing said the 777X and its composite wing will be built in the Puget Sound area by Boeing employees represented by the Machinists union.

“Thanks to this vote by our employees, the future of Boeing in the Puget Sound region has never looked brighter,” Boeing Commercial Airplanes President and CEO Ray Conner said.

“We’re proud to say that together, we’ll build the world’s next great airplane — the 777X and its new wing — right here. This will put our workforce on the cutting edge of composite technology, while sustaining thousands of local jobs for years to come.”

Local officials of the International Association of Machinists

Boeing machinists with completed ballots head to their polling place at a union hall on Friday in Everett, Wash.

and Aerospace Workers had urged their 30,000 members to oppose the deal, arguing that the proposal surrendered too much at a time of company profitability. They had opposed taking a vote at all but were overruled by national leaders in the Machinists union.

The announcement that the contract had passed with a 51 percent yes vote was somber.

“Our members have spoken and having said that, this is the course we’ll take,” Jim Bearden, administrative assistant for Machinists District 751, said in announcing the results. “No member liked this vote or the position we were put in by the company, nor was it an easy vote for anyone to cast.”

Opponents of the contract opposed the idea of freezing the Machinists’ pensions and moving workers to a definedcontribution savings plan.

The issue fractured the union and drew unusual pleas from politicians who said the deal was necessary to support the area’s economic future.

Boeing has been exploring the prospect of building the 777X elsewhere, a move that could trigger a steady exodus of aerospace jobs from the place where Boeing was founded.

“We missed it by 1 percent because people were confused and worried about their jobs,” said Rick Herrmann, who has been working at Boeing for 46 years.

Looking forward to next season

O

afield & afloat

K, it’s done! Deer season is over.

Yep, I can still see my lovely bride, Sherri, jumping for joy. Really, she’s been great this season, only complaining on one or two occasions, and that was on a couple of particularly bad days. I had taken the last two days of 2013 off and spent the afternoons in the woods.

During this time of the year, I’ve always found it difficult to even see a deer, much less score, but I feel like I owed it to myself and to the hunting world to finish out the season. So I waited patiently in the ground blind on Monday afternoon and saw ab- Earle WOODWARD solutely nothing; not even the ever present squirrels were about. I crawled out just before last light and headed back to the house.

On Tuesday, the wind had shifted, which allowed me to hunt another piece of property. I was in the stand by 4 p.m. and watched the woods come alive.

The squirrels that were not present on the other property had all moved to this property and were running wild. Fox squirrels, grey squirrels, you name it and they were chasing each other across the dried leaves, up this tree and down that tree, anything to make a racket in the woods.

Later in the afternoon, a flock of Canada geese made a flyover and landed in a pond just on the other side of the tree line. Wood ducks were in the flooded timber around the edge of the pond squealing at each other. The woods were as alive as I’ve seen them in some time. I expected a

deer at any minute.

At 5:15, something causing quite a ruckus was running through the woods and headed in my direction. A glance in that direction put the imagination to rest; yes it was a deer and it was a buck. In fact it wasn’t just any buck, but a buck that I had taken a shot at about a month ago. I had not followed proper archery form and had dropped my bow arm at the shot and had just barely grazed the lower chest of the animal.

He was the buck that had both antlers broken off and looked more like a ram than a deer, both antlers sort of sweeping back over his head and then ending before making it back to the ears; strange looking, but unique and easily identifiable.

The buck stopped just briefly in a thicket about 50 yards in front of me, took a gander around and then continued his trot through the woods, stopping once about 40 yards from the stand to sniff the air before moving on. He wasn’t scared, but he had somewhere to go. He acted like a buck following a “hot” doe, but I’d been there for over an hour and hadn’t seen anything go by.

By the way he was moving, sort of a prance, I’d say he was none the worse for wear for receiving a slice across the chest. I was glad to see that he was doing well; contrary to what a lot of folks may think, most hunters worry about animals that they don’t recover. It stays with us and we sort of grieve. Fortunately, a fairly high percentage of deer wounded with an arrow survive, much more so than with firearms. This old boy was fine and moving very gracefully.

I sat in the stand thinking

about what I’d just seen and thinking back to several other deer encounters from that stand.

80 percent of the deer that I had seen from that stand this past season had come through one of two small thickets that were separated by an old firebreak and couldn’t be more than eight feet wide. When they exited the thickets, they came toward my stand and took one of two trails that forked just outside of bow range.

Taking the left fork put them in the hot seat, and taking the right fork, as the ram buck did, takes them too far out.

The more I thought about it the more I was convinced that I needed to put a stand up on the other side of the thickets or in the middle of one of them.

As it turns out, there is a multitrunked tree just on the other side of the thickets that will serve me very well next year. Instead of diverging trails leading out of the thicket, the trails will converge just before the thickets, bringing the deer to me instead of sending them away.

I’ll spend part of the next few weeks pulling stands down and scouting the woods. I’ve found that scouting this time of year pays off. Memories of the past season are still fresh, trails are more easily seen and trees that don’t drop all of their leaves are easily found. Those leaves, other vines and evergreens are all that provide late-season cover for the bowhunter, so it’s important to find those trees. The tree that I have in mind for next year has a small holly growing beside it, providing excellent cover.

I’m looking forward to wandering the woods for a few weekends, and I’m looking forward to next deer season!

WWW.DNR.SC.GOV

Researchers complete field work to estimate mountain bear population WWW.DNR.SC.GOV Researchers complete field work to estimate mountain bear population Researchers with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources and Clemson University completed the field work on a project that will yield important new information on the population of black bears in the South Carolina mountains.

The project title is: “Estimating Black Bear (Ursus americanus) population in the Mountains of South Carolina using DNA genetic analysis.” The project leaders are Richard Morton and Tammy Wactor, wildlife biologists with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the project cooperator is Dr. Joe Clark, of the Uni-

versity of Tennessee.

The objective of the study is to estimate the population of black bears in the Mountain Hunt Unit located in northern Oconee, Pickens and Greenville counties using DNA analysis and to use this information to improve bear management in the Upstate. The collection of data took place June through August 2013.

Black bears have historically ranged throughout the northern portions of Oconee, Pickens, and Greenville counties in the mountain region of South Carolina. Limited studies have been conducted in the region to estimate population size. Over the past 10 years, the reports of bear sightings have greatly increased with many of those

sightings outside the historic range. Blackbear harvest numbers have also increased over the past 10 years. These trends could mean the bear population is growing and expanding out of its historical range.

Estimated current bear population in the mountain region is between 900 to 1,200 bears based on older studies and extrapolated over time. In order for DNR to manage the black bear population in the Upstate through hunting and education, the state natural resources agency needs a better understanding of the population size and the potential of range expansion.

In June 2013, about 114 sampling sites were established across Oconee, Pickens, and Greenville counties

based on specific criteria. Each sampling site consisted of two strands of barbed wire stretched around four trees. An attractant, raspberry essence and Krispy Kreme donuts, was placed within the enclosure in a manner to ensure the bear crossed the barbed wire to reach it, snagging some hair on the barbs. Sampling sites were checked, attractant replenished and hair samples collected every seven days for eight weeks.

About 350 hair samples are now being analyzed at a genetics lab in Canada, which will help produce a black bear population estimate for the Upstate study area.

Results from the samples are expected to be complete in Summer 2014.

FISHING REPORT Santee Cooper System Striped Bass: Fair. Although still not frequent, reports of striper being caught are picking up. Catfish: Good. Catfish are deep but feeding extremely well in the lower lake; gizzard shad drifted or anchored are very effective.

Lake Murray Striped Bass: Fair to good. Most striper are in the upper end of the lake from the Gap up. Most striper are being found from the bank out to 40 feet of water. Fish can be in the shallows or in the middle of the channel, and so anglers are advised to look for birds. Free lining with live herring or big minnows is the best technique, Shellcracker: Fair to good. Fish worms on the bottom from the bank out to 10 feet of water. Finding shells is a good indicator that fish are in the area. Catfish: Fair to good.

Bait and catfish are scattered across a wide depth range from about 20-50 feet. Cut herring is currently the best bait choice.

Lake Wateree Crappie: Very good. A lot of crappie in the 1 - 1 1/2 pound range are being caught right now, and most fish are concentrated on the upper end of the lake from Wateree Creek on up. Fish are in the channel, and most are being found in 18-24 feet of water. The best technique is tight-lining very slow with jigs and minnows.

Largemouth Bass: Fair. The bass bite has slowed. Concentrate on rocky points and banks. Crankbaits, shakeyhead worms, and jig and trailers slowly worked are producing the best. Concentrate in 6-12 feet of water; however try shallower on warming trends and deeper during a cold trend.

Lake Greenwood Catfish: Good. Drifting cut herring, shad and shrimp in 15 to 25 feet of water near the Reedy and Saluda River channels is working well for channel cats. Crappie: Fair. Crappie are still feeding pretty well. The best fishing has come around bridge pilings in 12-15 feet of water using minnows.

Largemouth Bass: Slow. Some fish are being caught on shakey head worms fished in 8-15 feet of water, and there is still sporadic schooling activity with a mix of bass, small stripers and white perch feeding on top.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Good. Anchoring on main lake humps and points with steep ledges is most effective for putting big blue catfish in the boat; being patient and staying in one spot for a while can really pay off. Cut gizzard shad, big threadfin shad, and white perch seem to be the best baits.

Lake Russell Black Bass: Good. The best pattern for catching good numbers of spotted bass has been fishing drop shot rigs, spoons or minnows around schools of bait in 28-30 feet of water, particularly around brush. White perch: Good.

Big schools of white perch can also be found around schools of baitfish, and whereas a few weeks ago the perch were significantly deeper than the largemouth they are now mixed together in the 28-30 foot range.

Perch will eat spoons and minnows. Striped bass: Fair. Birds will provide indications of where the

|

striper can be found, but the key to targeting striper is still to cover a lot of water with big free-lined baits. The best areas to target are the lower end from the mid-lake to the dam and up Beaverdam and the Rocky River.

Lake Thurmond Crappie: Good. Good-sized crappie are being caught on minnows fished about 15 feet down over 30 feet of water around standing trees. The mouths of creeks are productive areas, and Raysville has been a good place to fish.

Striped and Hybrid Bass: Good.

Striper can be caught on planer boards pulled down the middle of the channel in about 20 feet of water. Both herring and gizzard shad make good baits, and they can also be fished on free lines or with a 1/8 ounce sinker. Around Amity, up to the pumping station, and the South Carolina Little River have all produced fish.

Lake Wylie Catfish: Fair to good. Try drifting cut white perch or cut shad on the bottom in or near the main channel. Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair. Fish can be caught on Rattle Trap-type baits, square billed crankbaits and Alabama rigs. The grub bite should get good once water temperatures drop on, and as shad begin to die off when water temperatures hit about 50 degrees the jerkbait bite will get better.

Lake Jocassee Trout: Slow. Fish are in 50 to 70 feet of water, and the best catches are coming up the rivers trolling minnows and spoons. Black Bass: Slow. Few anglers are pursuing black bass right now, but the best action from the bank to 30 feet out using shaky-head rigs.

Lake Keowee Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Good to very good. Bass fishing remains very strong on Lake Keowee, and that catching 20-plus fish on a trip is fairly common as late fall/winter-time schools get tighter. Anglers willing to use live bait can catch even more fish.

Bass can still be found chasing bait and schooling on the surface, although schooling back in the creeks has slowed down. Schooling fish related to the main channel can be caught on small topwater plugs.

Lake Hartwell Black Bass: Fair. Bass are starting to move a little deeper but water temperatures still have not dropped significantly. Overall fish are still highly related to bait and most fish are holding offshore.

Fishing in 20-40 feet of water with Scrounger heads, Blade Runners and drop shot rigs can catch fish.

Catfish: Fair. A few channel catfish can still be caught on herring, worms and even stinkbait, but overall the channel bite has significantly slowed. Striped and Hybrid Bass: Slow. Striper fishing has improved, and fish are moving a lot. They can be found up any of the major creeks and out in the creek mouths. Free lining live herring or gizzard shad is the best way to locate them. Crappie: Slow to fair. Not a lot of people are targeting crappie right now, but they can be found around brush 14-15 feet down in 25 or so feet of water. Both minnows and jigs will catch fish.

By Dan Rice © 2013 FYI Television, Inc. While former Venezuelan soccer player Juan Pablo Galavis couldn't win the heart of "The Bachelorette" Desiree Hartsock last year, the single father from Miami gets another chance to find love as "The Bachelor," premiering Monday at 8 p.m. on ABC. In searching for a stepmother for his daughter, Camila, and a soul mate for himself, Juan Pablo will have quite a variety of hopeful Bachelorettes to choose from, 27 lovely ladies including a pediatric nurse, a personal banker, a gradeschool teacher, a free-spirited "flower child" and a hairstylist who is already seven months pregnant!

Fortunately, he'll get some pointers on navigating that flirting field when soon-to-wed "Bachelor" Sean Lowe drops by to offer his advice. And host Chris Harrison will give viewers an earlier look at the Latin love object on Sunday at 8 p.m. with the one-hour special "The Bachelor: Countdown to Juan Pablo."

Although he was blindsided by not getting a rose, the experience of being on "The Bachelorette" made Juan Pablo, 32, decide he just can't give up on love and on giving his daughter, Camila, what she wants more than anything else in the world - a brother and a sister to complete their family. Even with his added determination, Juan Pablo notes that the role of "The Bachelor" is more difficult than that of a suitor for "The Bachelorette."

"I have a daughter," he explains, "and being on 'The Bachelorette,' I knew that I could go home week one, week two, week three. In this one, you have to be here for the entire season, so it was going to be a little bit of a time away from my daughter.

"Also I hate hurting people, but at the same time you have to take the risk of meeting people, in this case 27, that I knew that they knew a little bit about me. They knew what I wanted and then they knew that I wanted to have a family, have kids, so definitely it was a risk but like I've said plenty of times you can meet people everywhere in a club, or restaurant, but you don't know if that person is on the same page, you know; you don't know if that person wants to get married, have kids, or not.

"So, in this case it was easier in a sense," Juan Pablo continues. "But at the same time it's harder because you have to say goodbye to a lot of people. And I'm a happy guy, so I'm always happy and I think of that as every opportunity I always see the positive thing."

That positivity was tested when Juan Pablo first met Clare, the Bachelorette who wouldn't let her late-term pregnancy keep her from competing for his love. "I was like shocked, obviously," he admits, "but I'm a dad and I know how that feels, and single moms, single dads, you know, when they don't have that other person to raise their child, it's just tough in the sense they need that chance. And if I'm able to give her that chance, it's great, you know. It's not easy, but it's a hard situation."

As for what Juan Pablo is looking for in a mate, a particular area of physical compatibility rates highly, but he has decided not to rush that aspect of romance. "Looking for a woman that is smart," he says, "that is honest, that likes sports a little bit maybe, and was looking for somebody that knew how to dance because I love dancing.

That's one of my biggest turn-ons, like I fall in love with that. But in this situation I say to myself, 'Juan Pablo,

not all of them are going to dance.

Not all of them will be good dancers, so please don't let them dance yet, and just get to know them better.'

And that's how I did it."

The fun-loving Venezuelan is also intent on finding a woman who will get along with his daughter, but given that Camila has her real mother, his will be the deciding vote.

"I don't need approval from her, obviously; she's going to be 5," Juan Pablo stresses. "When I'm dating on the regular basis, I introduce [her] to my girlfriend at the time, 'This is a friend of Daddy's.' That's how I treat it. We don't hold hands, we don't kiss, we don't sleep over, we don't do anything in front of my daughter, because I don't want her to grow up seeing Dad dating this person. So, if I'm getting married with somebody someday, definitely I would introduce her as my girlfriend because I am 100-percent sure that I'm going to marry somebody.

"So, approval, no. Definitely have to talk to her; she's got to love my daughter and, you know, because she can't love me if she doesn't like my daughter. It's not going to work."

Like many of his predecessors, this year's "Bachelor" will benefit from being an also-ran on "The Bachelorette" - learning the hard way that in the end, there can only be one. "If you're one of the 25 you have to be clear and very mature to understand that there's going to be 24 guys that are going to go home or 25 guys that are going to go home," Juan Pablo observes. "She's not going to keep three, she's not going to keep two, she's going to keep one. She can just keep one.

Like I said, you have to be mature.

You have to be realistic in this whole situation, honestly. Because the more mature you are, the better it's going to end up."
