Newnan Theatre Company buys building

PHOTO BY MEGAN BELLEW

Mary Caroline Moore, left, managing director of Newnan Theatre Company, and Tony Daniel, the theater company’s artistic director, are looking forward to upcoming productions in the longtime NTC headquarters, which the non-profit recently purchased.

BY W. WINSTON SKINNER winston@newnan.com Newnan Theatre Company has bought its facility at 24 First Ave. As cast and crew prepare for the August production of “Of Mice and Men,” they are taking a historic step. “Of Mice and Men” will open Aug. 16, the first production in the building since the purchase.

The purchase follows an 18-month campaign among its base of patrons.

NTC has been renting the First Avenue property for nearly two decades. The building was previously used as a planing mill and a hardware store, and was sold to NTC by Newnan businessman Joe Crain.

Dr. Ralph Davis, chairm a n o f N T C ’s n o n profit board of directors, announced at the company’s annual gala in February 2017 that the board had adopted a goal to purchase the building in order to provide a permanent home for Newnan Theatre Company.

Davis branded the campaign, “PERMANENCE,” and from that moment NTC began raising funds and making plans to purchase the property.

School officials are urging drivers to pay attention to school bus signals, especially flashing lights and stop signs, and to use caution in and around school zones to protect students as they return to school.

Delainey “Lulu” Pedrick is one of about 15,000 reasons for drivers to remain alert and cautious when school buses return to Coweta roads.

That’s the approximate number of students in the Coweta County School System who ride the bus

to and from school each day, and officials are, as always, urging motorists to pay particular attention in loading and unloading zones to help protect students.

Pedrick, then a kindergartener at Elm Street Elementary School, was struck by a car and injured last fall as she was being dropped off in her neighborhood. Police said a driver passed two stopped

melanie@newnan.com More good news for local guitar player Doug Kees and the Michelle Malone Band.

Michelle Malone’s latest album “Slings and Arrows,” on which Kees played guitar, was subm it ted to be con sidered for a Gra m my nomination.

According to Kees, the entire album was submitted under the Contemporary Blues category and the song “Just Getting Sta r ted” wa s subm itted under the American Roots category.

Kees, Michelle Malone and fellow band members, bassist Robby Handley and drummer Chris Burroughs, learned

about the Grammy subm i s sion s on Ju ly 16 , fresh off their tour as the opening act for the Indigo Girls.

“From recording the album last year to touring with the Indigo Girls to this, we seem to keep pushing the bar higher,” said Kees. “I can’t wait to see what comes next.”

Kees said being considered for a Grammy nomination means the “ Sl i n g s a nd A r row s” album and the “Just Getting Started” single will be added to a list for members of the Recording Academy, formerly the National Academy for Recording Arts and Sciences or NARAS, to listen to.

The Recording Acad-

emy, which is made up of musicians, producers, recording engineers and other recording professionals, will then decide if the album and song should be nominated for a Grammy Award.

According to grammy. com, the award nominations will be announced on Dec. 5 and the 61st annual Grammy award show will take place in Los Angeles on Feb. 10, 2019.

Michelle Malone and the band have a lot going in their favor after their “Slings and Arrows” album hit the No. 8 spot on the Billboard Blues chart in May. “The record was two places ahead of the latest Rolling Stones album,”

Kees said. “We got a lot of positive press off of that.”

Kees said this would be h i s f i r st Gra m my nod, while Malone has two previous Grammy submissions. “ M ichel le de ser ve s all the attention. Without her talent, personality and singing, nothing else is there. But we are a team,” Kees said. “My part is to play the best I can and see how I can contribute to the team.

“She and I have a good rapport,” he continued.

“As a bandleader, I know what she needs and what she has to deal with.”

‘Murder in Coweta County’ discussed by descendants 70 years later

BY TAYLOR ROBINS

taylor@newnan.com Sevent y yea rs a f ter the murder of William Turner, a group of people connected to the murder case gathered for a panel discussion at the Coweta County historic courthouse in Newnan.

“Seventy years ago this room was filled up like this,” said Dick Atkins, “Murder i n Coweta County” producer. “And now 70 years later we still have this excitement about this.”

Atkins produced the 1983 f ilm, “Murder in Coweta County,” based on the true story of the 1948 murder of a sharecropper tenant, then-Coweta County Sheriff La ma r Potts’ investigation and the trial and conviction of wealthy landowner John

Wallace.

Margaret Anne Barnes, a local author and former reporter for The Newnan Times-Herald, wrote the 1976 book of the same name that inspired the movie.

Wednesday’s discussion happened in the same courthouse that Wallace’s trial took place.

On the panel were the late Turner’s son, John William Turner; the daughter of Judge Samuel Boykin, Alice Robertson; an actual witness of the crime, Raiford Smith; Al Brooks, the grandson of Albert Brooks, one of Wallace’s f ield hands; grand-nephew of then-Meriwether County Sheriff Hardy Collier, Sam Collier; and the greatnephew of Henry Mobley, accused as an accomplice of Wallace, Wes Mobley.

Also in attendance was Christopher Billings, who portrayed an infant John William Turner in the film.

It w a s r e ve a l e d to We d n e s d a y ’s a u d i ence that John William Turner didn’t know anything about the trial of his father’s murder until he was 22 years old. After the murder, his mother moved to Alabama. He said she was concerned about the safety of herself and her children, so the family seldom visited relatives in Georgia.

Turner said the family moved frequently during his early years, something he later attributed to his mother’s fear of them being harmed.

While serving in the military, relatives – including William Turner’s mother –

found him at his base. The family had searched for him for years, even hiring private detectives.

Collier described his outrage with his greatuncle being portrayed as a weak villain in the movie and book. In the movie, the then-Meriwether sheriff was portrayed as colluding with Wallace in Turner’s murder.

“I didn’t like the way he was portrayed because I knew he was a different type of person,” said Collier.

Collier, a police investigator by profession, talked with many of the people involved in the 1948 events over the years. He declined a request by one of Wallace’s relatives, however, to look into the murder itself.

During the trial, there was speculation on

BY W. WINSTON SKINNER winston@newnan.com Coweta County’s election results are closely tracking the state’s numbers with Secretary of State Brian Kemp racing ahead of Casey Cagle in the governor’s race.

At 8:45 p.m. Tuesday, Kemp h ad 7,437 votes locally to the lieutenant governor’s 2,741 in Coweta.

Almost all of Coweta’s votes were counted by that time.

Statewide, with 58 percent of the vote in, Kemp had 237,933 votes to Cagle’s 106,403.

Cagle and Kemp waged a hard-fought campaign.

Both came to Newnan for sit-down interviews with The Newnan Times-Herald staff and then returned for campaign events within the past week.

T he w i n ner of t he Republican g ubernatorial contest will face former state legislator Stacey Abrams, the Democratic

candidate, in November.

If elected, Abrams will be the nation’s first AfricanAmerican female governor.

Republican voters also voted for lieutenant governor and secretary of state candidates.

State Sen. David Shafer and Geoff Duncan, a former state representative, were less than one percentage point apart in the race for lieutenant governor at 8:45 p.m.

D u nc a n h ad 167, 8 9 8 votes to Shafer’s 166,061. In Coweta, Shafer was leading 4,936 to 4,844.

State Rep. Sarah Riggs Amico is the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor.

B r ad R a f fen sp er ger, a former member of the Georgia House, was leading David Belle Isle,who served six years as mayor of Alpharetta, locally and in statewide for the secretary of state’s post.

T he st atew ide t a l ly at 8:45 was 215,805 for

Raffensperger to 131,310 for Belle Isle. The Coweta totals were: Raffensperger, 6,472; Belle Isle, 3,049.

Democrat John Barrow, a former U.S. Congressman, will face the winner of the Republican runoff in the secretary of state’s race.

Democratic voters had a single runoff race on their ballots Tuesday. Georgia Association of Educators President Sid Chapman and former National PTA President Otha Thornton faced off for the Democratic school superintendent nomination.

The winner of that race will face incumbent Republican Richard Woods.

Chapman was ahead in Coweta while Thornton was winning the statewide vote.

T he Coweta ret u r n s were 291 for Chapman and 259 for Thornton. Statewide the totals were 29,096 PHOTO BY SARAH CAMPBELL for Chapman and 43,622 for Brian Kemp and Victor Parrish of Carroll County give a thumbs up for the camera at Thornton.

Brown said the event g ave school a nd l aw enforcement off icials a chance to get better acquainted as well. “ T he s c ho ol s h ave g reat sa fet y pla n s , b u t t h i s g a ve u s a l l an opportunity to see administrators go th rough this material and give them our f i rst-h a nd i nput ,” he said. “It gives us all an idea of what they are lo ok i n g for i n t he s e situations, to let them they k now what we’d

The school system is in the process of shoring up security at its elementa r y a nd m iddle schools by modif y i n g ent r a nce s a nd adding high-tech lockdown and monitoring systems.

The Coweta County Boa rd of Education a lso has approved f u nd i n g for 14 add itional school resource off icers a nd superv i sors to en su re law enforcement presence

Capt. Stephen Crook, who supervises SROs for the sheriff ’s department, said participa nts ca n now go back to t hei r respective schools and agencies and engage in wider staff training.

MURDER

With the testimony of both the Brooks a nd Gates, Wallace was given the death penalty. It was one of the first cases in Georgia where a white man was sentenced to death by the testimony of African-Americans.

According to Brooks, his grandfather is celebrated for his bravery by his family. He also said that his family believes Albert Brooks was John

T hose situations resulted in several arrests, including t h at of a 1 7-ye a r- old student whose loaded 9mm pistol was taken from him without incident by a principal and the school’s SROs. “This isn’t all new to us,” Sheriff Mike Yeager said at the time of the incident. “ We ’r e c o n s t a n t l y thinking, and this school system is constantly thinking, about what else they can do.”

hook for h is cr i me because of his socia l standing in Meriwether County, where he resided.

Turner was attacked at Sunset Tourist camp in Coweta County and taken back to Meriwether County. Smith, whose father Steve Smith owned and operated the cafe, was there on the day of the attack. He remembered his father getting a call ahead of time about a reported escaped convict.

Smith also remembered seeing the car drive away with someone hitting Turner – in the back seat – repeatedly.

Two contrasting opinions about Wallace being a good or bad man were also discussed. Mobley said according to his family and people that knew Wallace personally, “He was good as gold- until you crossed him.”

Severa l fa milies expressed a sha red unwillingness to discuss the case for many years.

“He didn’t like to talk about what happened,” said Brooks about his grandfather. “He would get mad if you talked about it. He wouldn’t say anything about it.”

Brooks’ grandfather was a prominent part of the conviction of Wallace. He and Robert Lee Gates, both A frica nAmerican field workers of Wallace’s, were forced to destroy Turner’s body.

“Hold i ng exerci ses li ke t h is rea l ly helps school administrators to t h i n k t hese sit uations through,” Crook said.

“Ever y situation t h a t a s c h o ol m i g h t encounter is different, so it is important to go through the processes and review everyone’s responsibilities.”

In the week following the Feb. 14 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High S c h o ol i n P a rk l a n d , Fla., during which 17 people were k i l led , Coweta schools expe-

Wallace’s son.

Robertson talked about her father’s being notified he would sit on Wallace trial, and his instructions for her and her mother.

“He made sure that we could fire a gun,” she said.

“There was this fear that something would happen to us while he was gone. The Carrollton police patrolled around our house,” she said. Robertson, who had been accustomed to walking to school with her friends, had to be driven everywhere from the time the trial began until Wallace was executed.

“The trial changed my

life,” she said. The governor sent state troops to drive the judge from Carrollton to Newnan during the trial.

After the conviction and execution of Wallace, his wife Josephine Wallace was left with very little. She worked at Mansour’s, an upscale clothing store in LaGrange, and in her last years, she lived with a nephew.

Atkins and Winston Skinner, news editor of The Newnan Times-Herald, were moderators for the discussion, which was sponsored by the Coweta County Convention and Visitors Bureau.
