Candidates speak at Women's Club forum By Loretta Cozart Ten candidates spoke to voters attending the Candidates' Forum at the Kings Mountain Woman's Club Monday evening. In attendance were Ted Alexander; David Lee Latimore; Kelly Hastings; Christy G. McCleary; Tim Moore, David Brinkley; Ali Paksoy, Jr.; Micah J. Sanderson; Alan Norman; and Clyde Ledbetter. Thirty-five citizens filled the seats and listened as candidates spoke. Each candidate had three minutes to introduce themselves and present their platform. Questions were not taken during the presentations. Afterward, attendees met with candidates one-on-one. Candidates for County Commission did not attend the forum due to a
scheduling conflict with another forum in the county. Their remarks were submitted in writing and Woman’s Club member Anne Gamble read them to the group. Ted Alexander (R) is running for NC State Senate District 44 and spoke to the gathering on his service as a past Mayor of Shelby, his experience in economic and community development with the Uptown Shelby Association's Mainstreet Program, and in NC Historic Preservation. He described himself as a "fiscal and social conservative, pro-life, in support of second amendment rights." David Lee Latimore (D) also running for NC Senate District 44 told the gathering he was a native North Carolinian and has lived in the state all

his life. He shared his platform and explained his interest is in education and that he has experience as a substitute teacher in Cleveland County Schools. He said there are "necessary changes for North Carolina Schools that need to be addressed." He touched on the lack of resources and money in the school system. He pledged that he "will work to get better funding for education and our kids." Kelly E. Hastings (R) is the incumbent candidate for NC House of Representatives District 110 and spoke on a platform of "lower taxes, less crime, and enhanced student learning." He explained that "faith is important to me" and that he "serves the portion of Kings Mountain that is in Gaston County." Christy G. McCleary (D) also running for NC House of Representatives District 110 spoke of her work in the community serving on the Cleveland County Historic Preservation Board
and the Kings Mountain Planning and Zoning Board. She shared that "Kings Mountain's cost of living results in lower wage requirements. People are harmed by working two jobs. We need to protect them," she said. McCleary also shared concerns about environmental and natural resources. She supports equal pay for women and pointed out that there are "nearly 15,000 unsolved rape cases in Cleveland County that should be given more attention.” Tim Moore (R) is the incumbent running for North Carolina House of Representatives for District 111 and has served in that office since 2002. He addressed the unemployment rate, witnessing it drop from 15% to 4% while in office.

For Dental Implants Locally Here In Kings Mountain
Baker Dental Care Preventative, Restorative & Cosmetic Dentistry
Last week the Kings Mountain Police Department received a grant of an Ace K-9 Heat Alarm Pro, a device used to warn officers if temperatures in their vehicles reach 82 degrees. Police dogs are kept in kennels inside the cars until they are needed, and the alarm helps to protect these valuable canine partners. "A month ago, Chief
Tessneer suggested we apply for the grant with the National Police Dog Foundation. They had 12 heat alarms to award nationwide, and we needed a second alarm for K-9 Officer Jonathan Price's unit. In 100 words or less, I had to describe why our agency deserved the alarm. Winners were announced within 10 to 14 days," K-9 Officer Chris Graham reported. "I am just happy that Of-
ficer Price and his canine partner, Aaron, will have this protection. It gives us great peace of mind. K-9 Officers must still be vigilant and check the car when our partners are in their kennels. No system is foolproof, and we are responsible for protecting our partners. We don't normally leave them in the car more than fifteen minutes without checking on them." See GRANT, Page 7A

Cleveland County warning: watch out for storm related scams Now that the storm has passed, people who live in the counties that were affected by wind and water damage will see an influx of storm-related scams. The top scams that follow the path of storms include home and roof repairs, donations and flood-damaged cars. These scams happen after every major storm or natural disaster. “We want to make the citizens of Cleveland County aware of these types of scams so that they do not become victims,” said Cleveland County Manager Brian Epley. Here’s how these storm-related scams work and what you can do: • Home and roof repair scams: Aggressive home repair companies will hire telemarketers to call residents in storm-damaged areas to set up appointments to assess your home for wind and water damage. In some hardhit areas, roof repair companies will go door-to-door to sign homeowners up for new roofs. Their goal is to get you to sign a contract, file an insurance claim, and sign over your insurance check to them. Then, the repair company will either not return at all or your repair will not happen for up to six months. How to protect yourself: 1) Contract with local companies that have a long history of doing business locally. 2) Check a business out with the Better Business Bureau prior to signing a contract with them at www.BBB.org. 3) Be careful about “storm chasers” who are based in another state and using their pick-up truck as their office. • Donation scams: After a natural disaster, many people want to help others who were adversely impacted by the storm. “When we see people who have lost their homes, we want to give money to help them rebuild their lives,” said Epley. “We encourage you to give, but to give carefully.” Fake nonprofits will use look-alike and soundalike names of well-known nonprofit organizations to solicit donations by telephone or email. How to protect yourself: 1) Give to reputable, nonprofit organizations that are experienced at providing disaster relief services. 2) Check out charities with the Wise Giving Alliance at www.give.org before you give to them to see how effective they are at carrying out their mission. 3) Do not give cash and do not give your credit card or bank account information to anyone See SCAMS, Page 7A

TODAY’S QUOTE:
Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. –Charles Swindoll
Pieces of Kings Mountain History By Loretta Husky Cozart Growing up in Kings Mountain was a unique LORETTA experience, one COZART that most who are not from here might understand. And growing up near North Piedmont Ave. was a unique experience in and of itself. Living there, we all knew a cast of characters who worked hard to keep their businesses afloat and still meet the needs of folks
who lived nearby. At a recent American Legion Auxiliary meeting, Norma Bridges mentioned selling Poppies downtown in the late 1930s as a fundriaser when she was young. She said Mrs. Ward, Haley Blanton’s mom, ran the Poppy sales and everyone would meet on the porch of the Mountain View Hotel to get their allotment. Almost all those who sold them back then were children. “The hotel was a beautiful place,” she re-
membered. They’d spend the day in front of the stores on Battleground as shoppers worked their way down the avenue gathering their weekly provisions. “When we ran out of Poppy’s we go back to Mrs. Ward, and she’d give us more to sell. We stayed out there all day until all were gone. We really thought we were something when we sold those Poppies.” The Bridges’ family lived on Parker Street, but her grandmother lived on Poplar
Court, so she walked through that area quite a bit when visiting her. “They had a drug store, beauty shop, barber, dry cleaners, antique store, and clothing shops. You could get everything you might need right there. Mrs. Amos had a store there too,” she said. “There used to be a service station where South Piedmont and Battleground meet. Now it’s a barbershop. I remember going to the Railroad Depot when President Roosevelt’s body came
through town on a train. We all went out to watch,” she remembered. “Edna and Pressley Berry ran the drug store. We went downtown when we had to see the doctor. In those days, you only went to the doctor when you had to. We saw Dr. Anthony and Dr. Ramseur downtown. Luckily our citizens still remember those days and love to share their stories with others. If you’d like to share your memories, give me a call. 704-241-2218.

KMHS Band performing in the Marching Competition in Palm Beach, Florida (Photo courtesy DigitalNC.org)
Looking back KM Band wins; makes rating of One in playing and marching ByLoretta Cozart In a special May 11, 1940 edition of the Kings Mountain Herald, it was reported that the Kings Mountain High School Band won the band competition in Palm Beach, Florida: “The pride and joy of every Kings Mountain Citizen… The Band… was awarded the highest rating possible in both playing and marching. For concert playing, a rating of one; for marching, a rating of one. In the Soloist Contest Work, D.F. Hord, Jr., and Earnest Mauney were awarded a rating of ONE.” “Paul Hendricks, director of the Band, was wired of the acceptance of the band as a participant in the festival after
Band members and parents arrive at their hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. (Photo courtesy DigitalNC.org) it had been recommended by the North Carolina Chairman of the Eighth Regional,” the Herald reported. “Kings Mountain was a hot-bed of excitement and preparations from Saturday through Tuesday, with mothers and musicians making ready for the trip on short notice.”
This national contest was in its eighth year, and the invitation to participate was a prestigious honor. The band parents arranged the trip to Palm Beach, Florida in a few short hours while simultaneously raising the necessary funds for 92 persons to attend.

Experiencing life is a gift and that’s a rose I want to smell in some way every day.

Titus 3:5 says, “He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit:” YES, that’s what we hope for! In Holy Scriptures, there are imperatives for us to follow. Just like we follow the governing street signs or traffic signals: Red = STOP. Yellow = CAUTION/SLOW. Green = GO! So too are we to slowdown, stop, and then go again. Sundays, Wednesday, and other times you pull

Simply put, we need to recharge our batteries, building each other up, abiding by what Hebrews 10:25 says “ Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” May friends, remember to set time aside for study, worship, and praise! We all need the refreshing powers of God’s renewing GRACE!

■ LIFESTYLES
American legion helps in hurricane relief effort By Loretta Cozart The American Legion Post 82 collected donations for the Hurricane Florence relief effort at Walmart in Shelby last Saturday. Contributions included 15 pallets of food, cleaning supplies, pet food, blankets, personal hygiene items, brooms, mops, and over 100 cases of water.
Post 82 and the Legion Riders of Post 155 with 10 riders escorted the Turner donated truck to Concord, NC on the first leg of the journey. Concord served as a collection point. The supplies were then shipped to National Guard Armories in the eastern part of North Carolina. Hurricane Florence came ashore ten days ago,
dumping trillions of gallons of water as it moved slowly through North Carolina. More than week later, 500 roads remain closed in the state and flooding has devastated countless communities on the coast. Rivers were predicted to crest on Tuesday. Once the waters recede, the long process of recovery will begin.
KM Historical Museum to host book lecture September 29 Kings Mountain Historical Museum will host a lecture by Rev. Dale M. Swofford on his new book, Goin' South: In Search of Equality September 29. The book is a heart-rendering story of the lead-up to the anti-discrimination march of Dr. Martin Luther King and his followers, the confrontation with Bull Connor and his vicious minions, and the aftermath that generated King's famous “I Have a Dream” speech. Rev. Swofford will talk about his journey in writing and the history of the time. Refreshments will be provided. Book Description: Dis-
REV. SWOFFORD crimination did not die in Birmingham, Alabama. Goin’ South is a heartrending story of the lead-up to the anti-discrimination march of Dr. Martin Luther King and his followers, the confrontation with Bull Connor and his vicious minions, and the aftermath

that generated King's famous speech. Told through the eyes of a young black boy who had never witnessed discrimination, the story - while fiction based on historical fact - lays bare the viciousness of bigotry and the evil that man can do to man, while still holding hope that trust and belief in God may change the dark vitriol and fear that some hold in their heart against others of different color to peace and goodwill toward their fellow man without regard to the color of one's skin.

to do it one dealer at a time, that is what we will do. For those who think drug trafficking is a victimless crime, about 80% of all crime in this county has some connection to the drug trade. The family devastation we see from drug addiction, especially methamphetamine, heroin, and prescription drug diversion, drives us to put an end to these brokers of human misery. Our citizens can help us succeed by calling 704-484-4987, and providing information on drug dealers in their neighborhoods. So much good information comes each week from the many citizens who make that call.”

How to protect yourself: 1) Ask to see the car’s title and do not pay for a car with the promise of getting the title in the mail in a few days. If it doesn’t have a title or has a title that indicates it was a total loss, you should be very wary of buying the car because you will not be able to resell it without a valid title. 2) Have a mechanic whom you trust check the vehicle out for flood damage that may not be obvious. “The key to not falling victim is to do your homework and check a company or nonprofit out before you sign a contract, make a donation or buy a used car,” said Epley. “We don’t want anyone in Cleveland County to lose money in a scam.”

On Tuesday, the legislators and staff received a briefing from Sheriff Coats as they assessed the King Charles area of the county and U.S. 401 south of Lillington, which remained under many feet of flowing water headed towards the Cape Fear River. “Our resilient county Emergency Operations Centers are providing a world class response to the damage caused by Florence,” said Rep. John Sauls (R-Lee). “I want to thank all the first responders and volunteers that have come together and put their lives on hold to help their fellow citizens weather this epic tragedy.” State House Rules Chairman David Lewis (R-Harnett) said he was proud that North Carolina communities continue to stand strong in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence: “Smart investments in our rainy-day fund over the past 5 years have prepared us to rebuild in times such as this. I will work to ensure our community has the resources that we need to recover and rebuild from this storm, Lewis said.” On Wednesday, Speaker Moore traveled to Robeson County’s Emergency Operations Center and updated press on recovery efforts with Rep. Brenden Jones (R-Columbus), Rep. Charles Graham (D-Robeson), and Senator Danny Britt (R-Columbus). “What I can tell you is the General Assembly is looking at coming back in to special session,” Moore said at the press conference. “We’re all prepared to come back in and do it, and make sure the money, once it’s appropriated, that it actually gets out to where it’s supposed to be.” State legislators were joined by Chancellor Robin Cummings of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, Mayor Bruce Davis of Lumberton, and county board Chairman Raymond Cummings at the Robeson County Emergency Operations Center. Speaker Moore stated his support for waiving school calendar requirements given all the missed class time for students in the region. “You have kids that are going to be out of school for several weeks,” Moore said. “People’s lives are being uprooted so we need to make sure we come up with a commonsense way to deal with the school attendance policy.” Speaker Moore next traveled to Fayetteville, N.C. on Wednesday with local state House Rep. John Szoka (R-Cumberland) to receive an update from the State Highway Patrol at Troop B headquarters on their deployments in Florence’s aftermath. Rep. Szoka said the visit was also “to thank the State Highway Patrol for their service” and he joined troopers later in the day to check on I-95 bridges over the Cape Fear River and the Highway 87 interchange. Speaker Moore joined Rep. Jones and wildlife officials by boat later Wednesday for damage assessments on Lake Waccamaw in Columbus County, which was pushed to a record flood by Hurricane Florence. Rep. Jones said he was “thankful for Speaker Moore’s quick actions to assist our communities and for coming to review the damage first-hand.” “We have a long road in front of us and much hard work to do,” Jones said. “I am confident the people of Columbus and Robeson counties will rebuild, and our communities will come back stronger than ever.”

Speaker Moore then drove to Union and Anson counties to meet Reps. Dean Arp (R-Union) and Mark Brody (R-Union), as well as Mayor Michael Alvarez of Indian Trail, N.C. for damage assessments of roadways still closed in the region southeast of Charlotte. “Thank you to all the fire, police, and first responders keeping us safe, linemen for getting our power back on, and everyone working at DOT for getting our roads back in service,” Rep. Arp said following the assessments Wednesday. Rep. Brody said the damage to his counties was still being
assessed by state and local officials: “We had a dam burst, roads collapse, a train derail and tragic deaths – our region is devastated by this storm both physically and emotionally,” Brody said. Speaker Moore also joined House Majority Leader John Bell (R-Wayne) and Rep. Michael Speciale (R-Craven), as well as Governor Roy Cooper and FEMA administrator Albie Lewis, to assist volunteers and conduct damage assessments in New Bern, N.C. on Monday. “There is immense devastation across North Carolina and it is critical that we continue to assist victims of this storm with all available resources,” Moore said.

After sweeps of Crest and Stuart Cramer last week Kings Mountain High’s volleyball team is alone at the top in the Big South 3A Conference. The Lady Mountaineers shutout Crest 25-22, 2520, 25-20 in a hard-fought match Tuesday at Donald L. Parker Gymnasium to break a first place tie in the final game of the first round. Then, on Thursday the KM gals defeated Stuart Cramer 25-18, 25-21, 25-22 to add icing to the cake. With six conference matches remaining, the KM ladies are favored to win their second conference
championship in the past three seasons. The home team got an outstanding effort from several players in defeating the Lady Chargers, the team that beat them in the final regular season game last year to win the conference championship. Lindsey Deaver provided 11 service points and played overall great defense, including three kills. Makena Deaton provided 10 service points, two blocks and 12 kills, and freshman Aaliyah Byers was also strong on the front line with six kills and six See SPIKERS, Page 3B
Kobe Paysour breaks receiving mark in 28-23 victory over Stuart Cramer Stuart Cramer’s Purple Storm did some damage Friday night at Kings Mountain’s John Gamble Stadium, but Mountaineer sophomore receiver Kobe Paysour made sure the electricity didn’t go off. Paysour used his speed and quickness to establish a new single game receiving record, amassing 288 yards on 11 receptions to lead the Mountaineers to a 28-23 win in the two teams’ first Big South Conference game. The final score was the same – except in reverse – as it was a week earlier when quarterback Kaylon Wade broke the all-time career passing record in a loss at Shelby. “It was an exciting game,” said KM Coach Greg Lloyd. “We did a lot of good things. We had a few miscues on special teams that hurt us but overall we ran the ball well and threw it well. Kaylon and Kobe had just an unbelievable night.” Paysour’s heroics started on KM’s second play, when he took a quick screen from Wade and split two defenders for a 95-yard touchdown. He would add two more in the second quarter on passes covering 29 and 21 yards that gave the Mountaineers a 28-14 lead at the break. One of the reasons for his success was the offensive line that provided the blocking for the Mountaineers to accumulate 489 yards of total offense against a good Cramer defense.
Damien Wilson (10) clears the way for quarterback Kaylon Wade to make a big run in Friday’s win over Cramer. “The offensive line has done a lot better the last couple of weeks,” Lloyd said. “Stuart Cramer was a real good football team. They did a good job and stayed in the game by making big plays of their own. It was a good win for us.” Kings Mountain was without the services of receiver Christopher Brittain. He took a hard hit to the head in the Shelby game the previous Friday and was held out as a precaution. Lloyd believes he will be “good to go” Friday at North Gaston. Paysour broke the previous school record of 231 yards held by Xavier John-
son by halftime, catching eight balls for 233 yards. His receptions of 16, 29 and 10 yards in the second half helped the Mountaineers fight off the Storm’s upset bid. Led by a strong kicking game that included long kickoffs and punts, as well as a smart one that recovered two onside kicks, the Storm made the Mountaineers work for everything they got. The visitors also put up a good rushing and passing attack that kept them in the game. After Paysour’s 95-yard burst, the Storm went 94 yards in six plays with Ethan
Lurry taking a slant pass 18 yards to tie the score. A 60yard reception by Kendall Karr put them in position. The Storm recovered an onside kick at the KM 32, but James Ussery blocked a 42-yard field goal attempt to keep the score even. After a 59-yard punt for a touchback, KM took over at its own 20 and marched 80 yards in nine plays to regain the lead at 14-7 on a seven-yard run by Wade. Paysour caught two passes for 33 yards, Quintin Davidson one for eight, and Wade and Ricaylen Mack took turns running the ball. Cramer answered on the first play after the kickoff when Morris rambled 76 yards to tie the score. And, another onside kick resulted in the Storm regaining possession. This time, the Mountaineer defense came up big with Seth Bishop on first down and James Ussery on second and third downs breaking up deep passes and forcing a punt. The Mountaineers marched 91 yards in seven plays to go up 21-14. Holden Turner caught two passes for 40 yards – the latter a spectacular onehand grab for a first down at the KM 44. Paysour took a screen for 16 yards and two plays later hauled in a 29-yarder for the score. Ussery blocked a Cramer field goal attempt with 54.9 seconds left in the half, and the Mountaineers methodically worked the ball in for a 28-14 lead at the break. See VICTORY, Page 3B

Patriots shutout East, at West Lincoln today
Caleb Holland leads the rushing for KMMS in win over East Lincoln.
Kings Mountain Middle opened Tri-County Eastern Division play Wednesday at Gamble Stadium with a 14-0 victory over a good East Lincoln team. It was the second straight shutout for the Patriots, who defeated rival Shelby in a season-opening non-division game last week. Kings Mountain travels to West Lincoln today for
a 5 p.m. contest. The Patriots drove to the two yard line on their opening possession before losing the ball on a fumble with 52.3 seconds remaining in the first period. East Lincoln couldn’t get out of the hole on the ground and went to the air, but KM’s Bryson Brown picked off a pass at the nine yard line. Facing fourth and goal at the
eight, quarterback Caleb Broome hit Brown with a touchdown pass and Caleb Holland ran a two-point conversion for an 8-0 lead that stood at halftime. That score stood until the 6:43 mark of the fourth quarter when the Patriots capped a 49-yard drive on a 26-yard reverse by Holland. East Lincoln really didn’t threaten again after
its initial drive. The Patriots’ defense came up with three interceptions including two by Brown and one by Jake Lloyd which sealed the win in the final minutes. AJ Richardson led the defense in tackles. Holland led the KM rushing with 68 yards in 10 carries and Zavian Smith had 32 in nine totes.
Ashbrook beats KM 4-2 to break tie in Big South Kings Mountain High’s soccer team fell from the unbeaten ranks and out of a tie for first place in the Big South Conference Wednesday night with a 4-2 loss to Ashbrook. The two teams battled to a scoreless deadlock in the first half before the Green Wave took command in the second to drop the Mountaineers to 3-1 in the conference and 8-1-1 overall. Josh Visoso led the Mountaineers with a goal and an assist. Christian Quevedo-Johns had a goal and Ward Dellinger had an assist.
On Tuesday night the Mountaineers defeated Ashbrook’s crosstown rival, Hunter Huss, 5-2 in a Big South game at John Gamble Stadium. Both teams came out strong and were able to move the ball around. KM got on the board when Danny Carley played a ball into Christian Quevedo-Johns, who was able to turn and put it into the back of the net. Riley Washburn drew a foul in the box when he got past a Huss defender and was taken down. Danny Carley
stepped up to take the penalty kick and buried it in the bottom right corner. As everyone was cheering the referee called the goal off and made him re-take the penalty kick. Carley buried it in the bottom of the net for a 2-0 lead. Luis Echevarria was able to get free for Huss and cut the margin to 2-1. Minutes later Carley applied high pressure on the Huss keeper and was able to create a turnover and tapped the ball into the goal for a 3-1 KM lead. Josh Visoso played a ball
to Carley who was able to get a shot off down the left flank for a 4-1 lead. Just before the end of the first half Echevarria scored to make it 4-2 at the break. Carley scored off a free kick from 30 yards out to close out the scoring. He shot the ball right over the wall of the crossbar into the net. Brandon Quevedo-Johns, Alex Nivens and Kevin Smith played well on defense for the Mountaineers. Silas Price was in goal.
KM Middle softball splits Kings Mountain Middle split a pair of Tri-County softball games last week, defeating Burns 10-5 on Tuesday and falling to West Lincoln 4-2 Thursday. The Lady Patriots carried a 2-2 record into a game yesterday at East Lincoln. Down 2-1 in the fifth against Burns, KM scored six runs to take a 7-2 lead to clinch the victory. Kali Weaver pitched the
first 5.1 innings to earn the win. She gave up five runs and struck out five. Alayna Patrick pitched 1.2 innings and worked out of a bases loaded jam to earn the save. Austyn Dixon, Carolina Barber, Lindsey Wilson, Makalyn Rikard and Cheyenne Reynolds had multi-hit games for the Patriots. KM used a Paige Bagwell RBI fielder’s choice
and an Alayna Patrick RBI single to take a 2-0 lead after three innings against West Lincoln. West Lincoln came back with single runs in the fourth and fifth to tie the game at 2-all, and scored two in the top of the seventh to earn the win. Kali Weaver started for KM and pitched three hitless innings before having to leave the game due to
JVs whip Cramer 22-6 Kings Mountain High’s JV football team bounced back from last week’s loss to Shelby with a 22-6 victory over a scrappy Stuart Cramer team Thursday night in Belmont. Chase Ellis got the Mountaineers on the board with a seven yard touchdown run. Jaylin McGill
caught a pass from Jonah Patrick for a two-point conversion. Kings Mountain’s next touchdown came on a fumble recovery to start the second half. Devin Presley ran for a two-point conversion. The final touchdown came on a 12 yard run by
Rashaard Brooks. Devin Pressley, Chance Cannon, Peyton Fisher, Troy Pruiksma and Shamron Gantt led the Kings Mountain defensive effort. The Mountaineers will host North Gaston Thursday at 7 p.m. at John Gamble Stadium.

set to receive the second half kickoff, their fans were feeling a runaway coming on but the home team fumbled on their own 16 on the first play. After two runs the Storm had a first and goal at the KM five, but on three consecutive plays Javari Rice-Wilson, Robert Lipscomb and Michael Pruiksma threw them for losses totaling 15 yards and they had to settle for a 37yard field goal which cut the margin to 28-17. While the Mountaineers were moving the ball they bogged down several
times, and the Storm’s strong kicker made them start from deep in their own territory. A big break for the visitors came with 8:22 remaining when they blocked a punt to gain possession at the KM 42. They were able to score on a 15-yard reception by Floyd with 4:56 to go and cut the margin to 28-23. But they would not touch the ball again as KM got good runs from Wade and Mack, and a 10-yard reception by Paysour to drain the clock.
Shaelin Smith and Rachel Johnson had eight and six service points, respectively. Riley Carroll had seven service pints and four kills, and Mary Bearfield had four kills. The Lady Mountaineers’ first match of the second round proved to be just as tough as the Crest match, but again KM prevailed and ran its record to 8-0 in the Big South and 15-1 overall.

The Mountaineers will be favored but Coach Greg Lloyd knows they can’t take the Wildcats lightly. “We will have to change our defense,” he noted. “They run a flexbone triple option and their quarterback (Isaiah McNeil) and running back (Kareem Kennedy) are really good. The quarterback is an extremely good athlete. The fullback is a hard runner. We have to be good in all three phases.” The Wildcats run a 4-2-5 defense and blitz a lot, Lloyd noted. “Hopefully, we can keep improving and do the best we can to win our second conference game.”

Lady Mountaineers remain unbeaten in tennis Huss. “Our playerss are overpowering their opponents and are focused on every match,” Henderson said. “Our top seeds are Natalie Lutz, Madelynn Frye, MC Johnson, Sarah Bell, Jasmine Guy and Kassie Johnson. Anne Scott Baker has played tremendously in both singles and doubles when called upon. The question is now whether or not our players are peaking at the right time.” KM is 24-0 in conference play over the last
three years. “I don’t look for our girls to let up, especially now that we are in the mix of conference play,” Henderson said. “Our girls have to maintain their confidence over the next two weeks or so as we wind down conference play. I continue to share with them that we have to play one match at a time. We can’t afford to get over confident and lose our focus. As for the health of our team at this time our girls are very
healthy and hopefully will stay that way. Now that Natalie, Madelynn, MC and Jasmine have overcome injuries, I’m hoping they will continue to lead us to our fourth consecutive conference championship.” KM took a 3-0 conference and 9-0 overall record into a game yesterday and will play at Burns Thursday at 4 p.m. KM 9, NG 0 Singles Natalie Lutz d.

If you need any additional information, please call the Planning Department at 704-734-4595.
potato request is made due to a bad crop year for white potatoes. More than 2000 pounds have been donated to the Salvation Army, the local Baptist Association and the Kings Mountain Crisis Ministry. These were collected on special Harvest Days at four county churches. Six hundred and fifty pounds were collected by students and faculty at A. L. Brown High School in Kannapolis. This effort was initiated by a former potato project volunteer from Kings Mountain. A local article caught the attention of WBTV, leading to an article on an evening news program. Channel 14 has mentioned the project on two recent occasions. Media attention and church publications have produced enough contributions to purchase 4000 pounds of white potatoes. A local farmer learned of our potato short fall and has donated 8000 pounds of sweet potatoes. “We are thankful that this harvest has increased awareness of the acute food shortage faced by a lot of our local people. A volunteer started that all of us should feel responsible if one person goes to bed hungry,” said CCPP co-founders Bill Horn and Doug Sharp.
Natural Gas Awareness and Safety “City of Kings Mountain Natural Gas Division” The City of Kings Mountain owns and operates a natural gas system that provides service to industrial, commercial, and residential customers in and around the City limits of Kings Mountain for use in manufacturing, space heating, water heating, and cooking, etc. Kings Mountain’s Natural gas pipelines quietly, reliably and efficiently deliver natural gas throughout the country for domestic and industrial use. As part of the greater industry’s 2.3 million miles of natural gas and liquid pipelines, Kings Mountain operates a natural gas transmission and distribution system that safely delivers large quantities of energy to fuel the economy and keep us warm every day. Pipelines are the safest and most cost effective way of delivering energy in existence. The City of Kings Mountain would like to inform residents about the accident prevention efforts that are undertaken to maintain the excellent pipeline safety record of the industry. Kings Mountain inspects mains and services that are excavated as well as monitors aboveground piping for corrosion. We apply and monitor conditions for hazards to the pipelines. We also use leak detection equipment that can detect the tiniest quantity of gas to determine whether a leak may exist below ground. Equipment is inspected and maintained regularly as well, including below-ground emergency valves.

In its ‘natural’ state, natural gas is colorless and odorless. The natural gas received by the City of Kings Mountain is mixed with an odorant so it is easier to recognize a natural gas pipeline release. The odorant added to the natural gas gives the gas a distinctive smell, often described as “rotten egg”. The City monitors the existence of this odorant to ensure its presence. Accidental releases of gas do occasionally occur, and in addition to the distinctive smell, other indications of a release may be a hissing, roaring sound, or blowing of dirt or dust. Persistent bubbles in water or pools of liquid with possible bubbling can also indicate a pipeline leak. If you smell, see, or hear any indications of a possible natural gas leak, please call the City of Kings Mountain’s Natural Gas Division at 704734-4516 or emergency officials at 911 immediately. If there is an unintended release of gas, the main hazard is the chance of fire or explosion. If you have a gas release situation, immediately walk away, warning others to stay away or leave the area. Extinguish all sources of ignition such as, open flames, cell phones, pagers, motor vehicles or any other item that may cause a spark or static discharge. From a safe location contact the City of Kings Mountain at the number listed above or the emergency officials. The leading cause of accidental releases of gas is due to damage of a below ground line by someone performing excavation or earth moving. The “ONE-CALL” system was setup to help prevent this hazard. If you dig, please contact NC One-Call Center toll-free 811 or log on to the website http://www.nc811.org to request a location of underground utilities. The North Carolina STATE LAW requires that excavators give at least 3 Day Notice prior to excavation. If you have any other questions or concerns about the City’s natural gas system, pipeline safety, or how to recognize or report a pipeline leak please give our office a call at 704-734-4516 between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm. Sincerely, Nick Hendricks, Jr. Assistant City Manger/Energy Services City of Kings Mountain, NC
