was how to win and let someone else win instead of taking it all for yourself,” said BHS instructor James Vansandt.

Corinth’s longtime Girl Scouts Heart of the South office closed for good this week.

The leadership center had served the Crossroads area for more than 35 years until the recent sale of the building that housed the center.

“They are tearing down that portion of Harper Square Mall,” said Jenny H. Jones, Chief Community Engagement Officer for Girl Scouts Heart of the South. “With the rent much higher in the new facility about to be built, we had no choice but to shut down the Corinth office.”

Volunteer Support Specialist Rhonda Tennyson said the office served local Girl Scout volunteers from across Northeast Mississippi.

“I managed a small shop which carried books, uniforms and insignia. We also held volunteer training there. The space was definitely well used,” said Tennyson, who will move to the Tupelo Heart of the South office.

The Corinth office also served as a “cookie cupboard” where troops could get Girl Scout cookies for extra orders or

A group of concerned residents want to make Bishop Park the place to be.

Markenna Edgston and others in a group known as We Are Corinth are asking the community to voice ideas for improving a park they believe isn’t used like it once was. A discussion meeting is set for 6:30 p.m.

Thursday, Sept. 8, at the Bishop Park pavilion on Johns Street.

Edgston, who helped launch a kickball league at the park this summer, believes it is important to bring the community back to the park.

“It’s crazy how many 13and 14-year-olds are carrying guns,” she said. “It’s unreal. If we can get them with a ball in their hand rather than a gun, that changes the whole wellbeing of Corinth, not just South Corinth.”

After a deadly shooting on Cemetery Street in April, Edgston and others began looking for something to keep the kids busy.

“This is one of the most rewarding jobs I’ve ever had, from the standpoint of taking care of people,” said second-term Corinth tax collector Larry Ross. “I just wish I was younger and had more time to spend with it in the future.” In addition to his job as tax collector, the 67-year-old Ross serves as treasurer at Shady Grove Methodist Church; is an active member of the Corinth Lions, Civitans and Kiwanis; and is a 33rd-degree Freemason. He has three daughters and four grandsons. “I’m proudest of my family, my girls, my grandchildren and my job,” said Ross. The youngest of 16 siblings, Ross lives on the family farm in Corinth. He has a personal philosophy that is centered on service to others. “The easiest way to keep from being depressed is to help somebody,” he said.

“Bro. Windham has put together a wonderful night of entertainment,” said Medlin.

“Food vendors will also be open, so plan to bring lawn chairs and have dinner in the park.”

Organizers have added a new addition to the Friday night lineup this year — a 8 p.m. movie in the park.

“There will be a kids movie screened near the back of Mineral Springs Park near the Youth Center,” added Medlin.

sonal responsibility and other virtuous traits, Vansandt encourages his students to take a handson approach to learning. “We recently read an article in the Daily Corinthian which prompted us to hold a food drive for the AMEN Food Pantry in response to their lack of donations,� he said. “I took a step back and allowed the class to make the decisions by putting to use the habits we’ve talked about.� “My aim was to reinforce the positive impact each student can have on those around them,� he added.

Setting a goal of 100 items, the class was able to double their donations on Wednesday. “We are fortunate to have several members of law enforcement in our county who live near our school and are pleased to be able to honor them for the many things they do for our community,� said Vansandt, who hopes more students will take advantage of the elective in the future. “Today’s project was just our small way of doing that.�

Today in History Today is Thursday, Sept. 1, the 245th day of 2016. There are 121 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 1, 1939, World War II began as Nazi Germany invaded Poland.

On this date: In 1905, Alberta and Saskatchewan entered Confederation as the eighth and ninth provinces of Canada.

In 1941, the first municipally owned parking building in the United States opened in Welch, West Virginia.

In 1945, Americans received word of Japan’s formal surrender that ended World War II. (Because of the time difference, it was Sept. 2 in Tokyo Bay, where the ceremony took place.)

In 1951, the United States, Australia and New Zealand signed a mutual defense pact, the ANZUS treaty.

In 1976, U.S. Rep. Wayne L. Hays, D-Ohio, resigned in the wake of a scandal in which he admitted having an affair with “secretary” Elizabeth Ray. In 1983, 269 people were killed when a Korean Air Lines Boeing 747 was shot down by a Soviet jet fighter after the airliner entered Soviet airspace.

In 1995, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. (The hall opened to the public the next day.)

Across the Region Burnsville Corinth man faces marijuana charge BURNSVILLE — A Corinth man was recently arrested in Tishomingo County.

Sheriff deputies stopped a vehicle in the Burnsville area for an expired tag.

During the traffic stop, the deputies noticed and observed the driver attempt to hide something in the vehicle. The driver was removed from the vehicle and with a search incident to arrest, the deputies found several bags of marijuana that were packaged to sell along with firearms, according to law enforcement officials.

The driver, Daniel Brock Yates, 27, of Corinth, was then transported to the Tishomingo County Jail.

He was charged with felony possession of controlled substance with intent to sell.

His bond was set at $2,500.

Booneville Candidate qualifies in justice court race BOONEVILLE — Jerry E. Bridges has become the 14th candidate in the race for Northern District Justice Court Judge in Prentiss County.

Qualifying for the special election continues until 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 9.

The 14 candidates who have qualified are: Jerry E. Bridges, Richard Franklin, Joe Grooms, Donna Lambert Inman, Sabrina King Hall, Jo Carol Knight, Tara Lau-

derdale, Kevin Lindley, Dewayne Mink, Jeff Prentiss, Billy Sartin, Tonyia Strickland, Richard Tollison and Billy N. Williams.

The Nov. 8 special election is to fill the post previously held by Debra Moore who did not seek reelection in 2015. Her husband, Trent Moore, was appointed to serve until the special election.

Selmer Louisiana donations being accepted SELMER, Tenn. — A business owner in Selmer said with family in southern Louisiana, he has to do something to help.

The owner of Michael’s Tire Shop is accepting donations that he will take down to Baton Rouge, according to WBBJ. Dan Michael said friends donated the truck and trailer and he hopes others step up to help the thousands who have been left with nothing.

Donations will be taken at the tire shop daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. until September 3.

You can also drop off donations at the Fred’s and Food Giant in Selmer.

Walnut Search underway for Walnut man WALNUT — An investigation is underway in the disappearance of a Walnut man, according to the Southern Sentinel.

Phillip Patrick Krauss

was last seen on July 4 on County Road 100 in Walnut. He has since been listed as a missing person.

Krauss is described as 52 and white. He is approximately 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 170 pounds. He has blue eyes and blondish gray hair.

Tupelo City employees will see pay raise TUPELO — It looks like Tupelo city employees will be getting a pay raise, reports WTVA. The proposed 201617 city budget presented Tuesday to the City Council calls for a three percent pay hike without a tax increase for residents.

Mayor Jason Shelton credits that in part to economic growth and to savings efforts like the city hiring its own attorney rather than contracting legal work out.

However, Shelton says health insurance costs have gone up 14 percent.

The City Council is expected to approve the new city budget September 14.

West Point 50 jobs coming to West Point WEST POINT — A Columbus company is moving to a larger building in Clay County, investing $825,000 and hiring 50 workers.

Plum Creek Environmental Technologies, which makes and sells trash and recycling

equipment, is buying the former Long Branch Co. fabrication facility in West Point.

CEO Jim Wamble says the move will help Plum Creek, which was founded in 2007 and now has 35 employees, increase production and hire more welders.

Mississippi Development Authority spokeswoman Tammy Craft says MDA is giving Plum Creek $150,000 for building and infrastructure improvements.

West Point and Clay County are providing property tax breaks projected to be worth $100,000 over 10 years.

The company expects to begin operating in West Point by Jan. 1.

Craft says the average job at Plum Creek will pay $17 an hour.

Savannah Entrepreneur space opens in Savannah SAVANNAH, Tenn. — After being vacant for two years, a space in downtown Savannah will be open to entrepreneurs and coffee drinkers, according to WBBJ. “We’re really giving it a shotgun approach,” Savannah Assistant City Manager Seth Sumner said. “We have a microbusiness coming into the front entrance. We’re reactivating a downtown historic storefront that’s been vacant for two years.”

A former office space and hair salon will be called SeedCo, short for Savannah Entrepreneur Education and Development Center.

“There’s a niche that we’re missing — that’s with our entrepreneurs, and that’s something I think this space is definitely going to help out with,” said Marilee Harrison, director of the Hardin County Chamber.

“Having it right downtown Main Street is just opening up the stage and allowing others to see what we’re doing here.”

This $50,000 state grant is fueling that need, along with a new coffee shop, called Selah. It’s opening at the front of the space.

The chamber said it’s excited about a new opportunity downtown.

“This is my hometown, so I’m excited to see something like this come to our Main Street area,” Harrison said.

“We can grow our current businesses or find the needs of great ideas that just need that extra boost. We’re going to be here to support those folks,” Sumner said.

Savannah officials also hope students can benefit from programs at SeedCo, such as computer coding.

City leaders said they’ve been working with theCO in Jackson to model some of their programs.

The space is expected to open in September.

LET US ASSIST YOU WITH YOUR SCHOLAR’S EYE CARE NEEDS

286-6171 THE POWER OF THE TONGUE “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.”(Proverbs 25:11) “A word spoken in due season, how good is it!”(Proverbs 15:23) The right word said at just the right time is indeed a blessing isn’t it!? Aren’t we grateful for the kind words of a friend when things go wrong in our life, or words of comfort at the loss of a loved one; the encouragement and confidence instilled in us by the re-assuring words of a faithful brother or sister in Christ when I have failed to be what God would have me be.

These are priceless treasures. How often have we given our undivided attention to a speaker who was able to move us to tears or jubilation with just a word or a phrase? The New Testament writer James puts it in perspective for us when he says “the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things.”(James 3:5) The tongue can also cause great pain in the lives of others.

How often is the harmony and beauty of a marriage damaged or destroyed by the unkind, spiteful, angry words of one spouse to another, or the humiliating, and degrading language used by a parent to a precious child. James says ”the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity, “ and that “it defileth the whole body.”(James 3:6) How often is the Christian’s power to influence others in a positive way damaged by the careless use of the tongue, and instead of drawing people to Jesus and his will by the life we live, we cause them to wonder how Christ can live in us if we use filthy words and speech every time we open our mouth.

The power of the tongue is seen in the imagery used by James.

He likens the tongue to bits placed in a horse’s mouth, enabling the rider to turn the large animal with the relatively small bit, and the large ships that are turned about by the relatively small rudder.(James 3:3, 4) The lesson is magnified by the imagery.

The tongue is indeed small but very, very powerful. “The tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.”(James 3:8) It behooves us then to resolve, as David did in the long ago to,”sin not with my tongue; I will keep my mouth with a bridle.”(Psalm39:1) James says “If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect, [mature] man, and able also to bridle the whole body.(James 3:2) Let us strive to clean up our mouth and use its power for good and not evil!!

Corinth, Miss.

How long?

Not long MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Docent Wanda Howard Battle has a lilting voice, and snatches of songs keep erupting, poetry from prose, as she leads her small tour group around Dexter Avenue King Memorial Rheta Baptist Church. Her enthusiJohnson asm matches her knowledge about the historic red-brick Columnist church a block from the Alabama statehouse.

As a tour finale, she demands that her pilgrims go one by one to the lectern that Martin Luther King Jr. used when he spoke from a trailer bed on the street in front of the capitol after the Selma to Montgomery March.

He wasn’t allowed to speak from the building. Thousands of weary marchers waited for his wisdom.

Wanda Battle asks us to say the four words that were the foundation of that speech.

“Speak in your best preacher’s voice!” she commands, and each in his turn tries to channel King.

“How long? Not long.” One man thunders a nice approximation. The rest of us are intimidated by the challenge. Not easy to match one of the best orators in history.

Dr. King might have revised that 1965 speech if he could have seen 50 years into the future, an America he would not be a part of.

“How long? Too long. How long? Too long.”

With a crystal ball, that’s what he might have said.

As clashes erupt over police brutality within the black community, “not long” seems wrong. As a presidential nominee fuels racism as part of his political shtick, “not long” is a bad joke. You wish for a Martin Luther King to lead us out of this hate-filled wilderness.

We are in the church basement, where King and others launched the Montgomery Bus Boycott on Dec. 2, 1955. The reception to its inception makes reaction to Black Lives Matter look redundant. King’s nearby parsonage was hit with a dynamite blast while his wife and new baby were inside. Boycotters were fired and mocked.

The church we are touring began its life holding meetings at a hall on Market Street once used as a slave trader’s pen. According to Battle, the building might have been razed by the city but for its designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1974.

When she shows us King’s former office, the relative simplicity of his early career is evident. This could be any preacher’s office, with books on the shelf about other religions and black-and-white photographs of important church events, including a baptism. His life grew complex, but not his goals.

What King wanted -- what we still need today -- is recognition that all men and women are created equal, not just in a lofty document but in reality. He was killed for trying to make his point.

Battle describes the day in 1979 that a repentant George C. Wallace was wheeled into Dexter Avenue Church and asked for forgiveness. He had felt pain, he said, and it changed his heart.

Forgiveness was forthcoming. Wallace ran for governor twice more, and won both times with the help of the black vote.

So if there’s a moral to this story, it’s our need to be reminded today, every day, of the spirit that once was abroad. King taught followers to turn the other cheek, to fight violence with passivity and to forgive. If we can’t do that, all is lost.

Prayer for today O Lord of wisdom, kindle me with a love for true knowledge, that I may strive, in the moments I have now, to culture my life. Not by might, not by power, but by thy spirit, O Lord, may I learn and teach thy children. Amen.

Where there’s smoke there’s fire The prize quote of this incendiary political year may go to Hillary Clinton. In response to Donald Trump’s charge that the Clintons set up a pay-for-play arrangement that granted big contributors access to Clinton while she was secretary of state, Hillary Clinton said, “My work as secretary of state was not influenced by any outside forces. I made policy decisions based on what I thought was right to keep Americans safe and protect our interests abroad.” She added, “I know there’s a lot of smoke, and there’s no fire.”

Can there be smoke without fire? I asked an expert.

My son, Jay Thomas, has spent most of his professional life as a firefighter.

He tells me: “Very simply put, where there is smoke there is, or was, fire. Smoke is a byproduct of combustion. There are three stages of fire: smoldering, incipient and free burning. Each one (emits) smoke.”

For more, I turn to the website Programmerinterview.com: “The phrase ‘where there’s smoke there’s fire’ means that if something looks wrong then it probably is wrong -- just like if you see smoke there prob-

ably is a fire somewhere. ...

When the signs of trouble are there, then that means Cal that trouble Thomas is probably there as Columnist well.”

C l e a r enough? The Clintons have been lighting and trying to put out “fires” started by the combustible material of their shifting ethics and morals at least since Bill was governor of Arkansas. Earliest memory recalls Hillary making a killing in the cattle futures market. A 1994 report by Charles R. Babcock, staff writer for The Washington Post, reveals a type of smoke screen surrounding her dubious practice: “Hillary Rodham Clinton was allowed to order 10 cattle futures contracts, normally a $12,000 investment, in her first commodity trade in 1978, although she had only $1,000 in her account at the time, according to trade records the White House released yesterday.

“The computerized records of her trades, which the White House obtained from the Chicago Mercan-

tile Exchange, show for the first time how she was able to turn her initial investment into $6,300 overnight. In about 10 months of trading, she made nearly $100,000, relying heavily on advice from her friend James B. Blair, an experienced futures trader.

“The new records also raise the possibility that some of her profits -- as much as $40,000 -- came from larger trades ordered by someone else and then shifted to her account, Leo Melamed, a former chairman of the Merc who reviewed the records for the White House, said in an interview. He said the discrepancies in Clinton’s records also could have been caused by human error.”

Ah, yes, human error, but not on her part, of course.

There are always “discrepancies,” or mistakes made by others, or vast right-wing conspiracies. The Clintons’ motives are pure and those of us who doubt them are the ones who are wrong. It always seems the Clintons manage to escape accountability for anything that would lead to the arrest, indictment, conviction and jailing of just about anyone else.

The Associated Press, hardly a right-wing entity, first reported the story about Hillary Clinton’s foreign visitors to the State Department, who “happened” to have given large amounts of cash to the Clinton Foundation. The wire service received a partial schedule and has requested the rest of her calendar by Oct. 15.

The State Department has said it won’t provide the calendar until after the election, possibly by Dec. 30.

How convenient for her.

It’s been seven months since a federal judge ordered monthly releases of her daily schedule.

Hillary Clinton’s ethical challenges might stand out more were it not for Donald Trump’s own record when it comes to telling the truth.

In the end, will it matter?

If we care too little about ethics and morals in our leaders, it shows we do not hold these virtues in high regard. That says at least as much about us, as it does about them. And that’s not blowing smoke.

A gem is found in Chicago We have gotten so used to seeing college presidents and other academic “leaders” caving in to so many outrageous demands from little gangs of bullying students that it is a long overdue surprise to see a sign that at least one major university has shown some backbone.

Dr. Robert J. Zimmer, president of the University of Chicago, has spoken out in the plainest language against the stifling of opinions that differ from political correctness, on campuses across the country.

“Free speech is at risk at the very institution where it should be assured: the university,” Dr. Zimmer said.

“Invited speakers are disinvited because a segment of a university community deems them offensive, while other orators are shouted down for similar reasons,” he said. Demands have been made that assigned readings in some courses be eliminated because they “might make some students uncomfortable.”

Worst of all, such demands “have been supported by university administrators,” Zimmer pointed out.

By contrast with many other colleges and universities where speech codes re-

strict what students can and cannot say, freshmen entering the University Thomas of Chicago Sowell have been informed that Columnist “freedom of expression” is one of that institution’s “defining characteristics.”

The Dean of Students spelled it out: “Members of our community are encouraged to speak, write, listen, challenge and learn, without fear of censorship. Civility and mutual respect are vital to all of us, and freedom of expression does not mean the freedom to harass or threaten others.”

That such things need to be said is a painful commentary on the academic world in general. It is doubtful if any such declaration or policy could be made at any of the Ivy League universities, which are bastions of political correctness.

At Harvard, not only have invited speakers been shouted down and sometimes assaulted, even a Harvard professor’s classroom was invaded by disruptive students who didn’t like

what he was teaching. Such things have also happened at Berkeley and other elite institutions, as well as at less renowned institutions.

The uniqueness of the University of Chicago is not new. Back in the 1960s, as campus riots spread across the country, and academic administrators caved in to even the most outrageous demands, dozens of disruptive students were simply expelled from the University of Chicago and dozens more were put on probation.

As Professor George J. Stigler, a Nobel Prize-winning economist, said, “our faculty united behind the expulsion of a large number of young barbarians.”

But such faculty support required a sense of mission, beyond a quiet life on campus in which to pursue one’s own career. Even as grade inflation soared, and failing grades virtually disappeared in some colleges and universities across the country, that was not true among professors of economics who had been trained at the University of Chicago.

A survey in the economics department at Cornell University, during a year in the 1960s when I taught there, showed that the only

students who received a failing grade in any economics course that year were students who took courses taught by professors who were trained at the University of Chicago.

In later years, when I gave failing grades to one-fourth of my class at UCLA, I discovered that this was not at all unusual in UCLA’s economics department, which had a sizable contingent of economists trained at the University of Chicago.

One of the many namecalling responses to people who do not go along with political correctness is to use the all-purpose smear, “racism.” But the first time I saw a white professor at a white university with a black secretary, it was Milton Friedman at the University of Chicago in 1960.

Years earlier, the first black tenured professor at an elite white university was Allison Davis at the University of Chicago. But who cares about facts in these politically correct times?

McNairy County students earn top ACT scores

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. — McNairy County Schools received some positive news with the release of the ACT scores by the state.

The results show the school district had topped the Tennessee area systems in composite and college readiness benchmarks.

The county had an average composite score of 19.1 and a college readiness score of 14 percent. These scores were better than neighboring West Tennessee counties Chester, Hardeman and Hardin. “We are very excited about the results and the improvement of the scores from the previous year,� said Dr. Brian Jackson, the assistant McNairy County Director of Schools/Su-

pervisor of Instruction.

Dr. Jackson said the state wants all districts to achieve a composite score of 21. Tennessee public school students qualify for the Hope Scholarship with an ACT score of 21. “We do look at other school districts to compare our scores with to see how well we do compared to them,� said Dr. Jackson. “It does make us feel good to know we have the best scores in our area.�

Dr. Jackson felt the emphasis placed on improving the ACT scores in the county by former McNairy County Director of Schools John Prince played a role in the improvement. “Mr. Prince did a good job of showing the teachers and students the importance of the ACT,� said Dr. Jackson. “I be-

lieve the more you celebrate something is going to lead to more improvement.�

McNairy County had scores of 18.6 percent on the ACT and a college readiness score of 12 percent in 2015.

Chester County had the closest ACT score to McNairy County at 18.8 percent and none of the other three area school districts had a college readiness benchmark of more than nine percent.

Dr. Jackson said Dr. Ben Perkins from Union University had been brought in to talk with faculties of McNairy Central and Adamsville High to give them support in enabling them to better prepare the students for the ACT. An idea by Molly Cheshier to have the sophomores take an

old ACT test will be helpful to the students and faculties to get ready for this year’s test. “Molly has done a great job through the GearUp program to help get our students prepared for the ACT,� said Dr. Jackson. “We can now see where those students need to show improvement on the ACT.�

Tennessee requires all juniors to take the ACT whether they plan to go to college or not. “I feel it is a good thing to have all juniors take the test,� remarked Dr. Jackson. “A good test score can show a student how they qualify for scholarship funds and could impact them in making a decision to go to college.�

Tennessee students had an average score of 19.4. This improved the state’s national

standing in 2016 among the 18 states that require students to take the ACT, climbing to seventh in the nation when looking at the average composite of both public and private school students. In 2015, Tennessee ranked eighth among the then13 states that required the college readiness assessment.

The state is going to oer a new ACT retake opportunity this year, which is available to all public school seniors who took the exam as a junior. Combined data from Tennessee public and private school students show that students who retake the exam increase their scores by at least one point on average when retaking the exam and score at least three points higher than juniors who only take the test once.

MCNAIRY COUNTY, Tenn. — The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency and the Tennessee Association of Broadcasters, and its members, will conduct a statewide test of the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) to deliver a voluntary Emergency Alert System (EAS) message and a Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 1.

TEMA and TAB’s partnership and IPAWS test is a collaborative eort to raise awareness about the importance of emergency preparedness and in recognition of September 2016 as National Preparedness Month. “This year, in Tennessee and across the nation, natural and humancaused disasters have taken lives, destroyed homes and damaged roads and infrastructure,â€? said TEMA Director Patrick Sheehan. “While we live in some of the safest times in history, these fires, storms, flash-floods, heatwaves, tornadoes, accidents, and active shooter tragedies serve as reminders of the importance of being aware of the potential threats around us and to prepare ourselves and our loved ones.

This statewide EAS test message will recognize National Preparedness Month and emphasize the importance of emergency preparedness.�

TEMA will send the voluntary EAS and WEA test messages through IPAWS, allowing TEMA to assess its operational readiness to alert and warn the public during statewide disasters and emergencies. The message will be as follows: “This is a statewide test of the Emergency Alert System. This is only a test.

September is National Preparedness Month. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency, Tennessee Association of Broadcasters and this station are reminding you how important it is to be ready for disasters and emergencies. Take some time to prepare an emergency kit for your home, oďŹƒce, and vehicle, and have an emergency plan so you and your family are ready. Visit www.tnema.org for information.â€?

The EAS test is designed to have limited impact on the public and there is no Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulatory liability for stations that choose not to participate. “TAB’s radio and television membership is looking forward to partnering with TEMA to help bring awareness to families and businesses getting ready for the when, not if of an emergency or disaster,� said TAB President Whit Adamson. “We know this statewide test is the perfect warmup for the national test scheduled on September 28, 2016, which will be coordinated with the FCC and Federal Emergency Management Agency.�

Also on Sept. 1, just after 2:30 p.m., CDT, Tennesseans, and those travelling through the state, will receive the following

Prepare for emergencies National Preparedness Month is designed to raise awareness and encourage Americans to take steps to prepare for emergencies in their homes, schools, organizations, businesses, and places of worship.

The first step in emergency preparedness is to create a written emergency plan for you and your family. Basic emergency plans include information such as: • The evacuation procedure for your home, in case of fire or flood, so everyone will know which exits to take during a home emergency; • How family members should contact each other if they are separated in a disaster; • Where family members should meet after evacuating their home, or if your neighborhood is being evacuated; and, • The important contact phone numbers for work locations, medical providers, and insurance carriers.

Also, check the emergency plans and preparations for places where you and your family spend time such as schools, day cares, sports facilities,

and faith organizations. It is also important to have an emergency kit in every automobile your family uses.

Finally, make sure you exercise your plans with your family. Practice a family fire drill or try out your communication plan on a day when you know family members will be separated.

Emergency kit basics The contents of a wellstocked disaster kit vary depending on household needs. There are certain essentials for any kit: • Water – at least a gallon per person per day, for three to five days • Nonperishable food (such as dried fruit or peanut butter) – enough per person for three to five days • Pet supplies • Pet food and water • Baby supplies (formula, diapers) • Weather radio (battery-powered or handcrank) and extra batteries • First-aid kit • Prescription medications and glasses • Flashlight and extra batteries • Dust mask (to filter contaminated air) • Plastic sheeting and duct tape (to shelter in place)

MSU, MUW remove Mississippi flag

BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — Two more Mississippi universities have stopped flying the state’s flag featuring the Confederate battle emblem, decisions that drew rebukes from the governor.

Mississippi State University and the Mississippi University for Women confirmed Tuesday that they removed the flag from outdoor flagpoles over the summer.

The universities’ actions came after state lawmakers failed to act on changing the flag this year. “The university community supports a flag that unites everyone in the state behind it,� said Jim Borsig, president of the Mississippi University for Women.

Delta State University is the only public Mississippi university still flying the flag.

A statement from that school Tuesday opened the door to removing it if the university cabinet votes to do so.

Gov. Phil Bryant told reporters Tuesday that he disagrees with the universities’ decision to remove the flag.

He cited a state law calling for Mississippi’s flag to “receive all of the respect and ceremonious etiquette given

the American flag� if displayed. The law doesn’t require public agencies to fly the flag. K-12 schools are required to, but some ignore it. “Whether you like the flag or not, the state law calls for it to be treated with equal respect,� Bryant said.

In a 2001 referendum, Mississippi voters strongly supported keeping the flag, which has included the Confederate battle emblem in its upper left corner since 1894.

But agitation against the flag resumed following the 2015 massacre of nine black worshippers at a church in Charleston, South Carolina.

The white suspect in that case posed for photos with Confederate flags.

After the church shooting, Bryant had said he wanted to give voters another chance to decide whether to change Mississippi’s flag. He repeated that position Tuesday. “I believe the people have the right to speak on this,� he said.

The changes at both schools came quietly while many students and faculty were away. MSU spokesman Sid Salter said Tuesday that President Mark Keenum approved campus leaders’ requests to remove the flag

from five locations on the Starkville campus in June and July. Salter said the flags have been replaced with larger American flags, to mirror the large American flag that has flown alone in MSU’s central quad for at least 15 years. He said 21,000-student MSU removed Mississippi flags from athletic arenas several years ago.

Borsig said 2,700-student MUW was expanding a driveway where the only state flag stood. Borsig said he acted after campus groups discussed the flag last year and he encouraged them to lobby elected oďŹƒcials. He also cited the 50th anniversary of the university’s integration and Mississippi’s 2017 bicentennial.

Mississippi flag opponents welcomed its removal. “It was important to us to take it down because it just reminded us of the Civil War and people who wanted to keep us slaves,� said Deborah Frazier, president of the Mississippi State campus branch of the NAACP. “Now it doesn’t remind us daily when we see the flag of that oppression.�

Frazier, a junior English major from Benton, was among students who pro-

Deaths Johnny Luker

tested the flag in front of Keenum’s oďŹƒce in April. At the time, Keenum said taking the flag down was “a symbolic gesture that accomplishes nothing toward actually changing the state flag.â€?

Salter said Tuesday that Keenum “has been outspoken in expressing his heartfelt personal support for flag change and has maintained an open dialogue with those representing diverse points of view on the question of the state flag.� Salter said Mississippi’s flag remains part of a display of state and international flags in the university’s main cafeteria.

The University of Mississippi, MSU’s archrival, lowered the Mississippi flag in October. The University of Southern Mississippi also removed state flags last year and three historically black universities removed them earlier. Some Mississippi lawmakers introduced unsuccessful bills in 2016 to force governments and schools to display the flag.

Delta State spokeswoman Jennifer Farish said that 3,500-student university would remove the flag if President Bill LaForge’s cabinet, including faculty, sta and students, votes to do so.

Services for Johnny Luker, 62, are set for 3 p.m. Sunday at McPeters Funeral Home with burial at Shiloh Baptist Church Cemetery. Visitation is from 1 p.m. until the service.

Gloria Ann Oaks

Services for Gloria Ann Lancaster Oaks are set for 12 noon Friday at McPeters Inc. Funeral Directors with burial at Corinth National Cemetery.

Visitation is Friday from 10 a.m. until the service.

Ms. Oaks died Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2016, at Country Cottage.

Peggy Wilson

SELMER, Tenn. — Funeral services for Peggy Wilson, 72, are set for 2 p.m.

Friday at Magnolia Funeral Home Chapel of Memories. Visitation is Friday from 11 a.m. until the service.

Ms. Wilson died Monday, Aug. 29, 2016.

Dorothy McGaha

BOONEVILLE — Funeral services for Dorothy Irene Shumpert McGaha, 94, are set for 1 p.m. Saturday at Oak Hill Missionary Baptist Church with burial at the church cemetery.

Visitation is Friday from 5 until 7 p.m. at Oak Hill Missionary Baptist Church.

Mrs. McGaha died Friday, Aug. 26, 2016, at UMMC Grenada. Born July 27, 1922, she was a cook and a member of Oak Hill Missionary Baptist Church.

She attended Bynum and Gift School.

Survivors include a daughter, Geneva McCain; five siblings, Leola Agnew, Velma Jones, Robert C. Shumpert, Howard Shumpert and Willie G. Shumpert; seven grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; and two greatgreat-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her husband, George McGaha; her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Will Shumpert; four sisters; four brothers; two children, Roy Shumpert and Lois Shumpert; and a granddaughter, Carissa Kice Shumpert.

The Rev. Houston Owens will oďŹƒciate the service under the direction of Patterson Memorial Chapel of Corinth.

Clinton pitches foreign policy to American Legion Associated Press

CINCINNATI — Portraying a vote for her as a patriotic act, Hillary Clinton made a vigorous appeal to Republican voters Wednesday, arguing that she would best uphold American values, care for the military and protect national security interests.

At the American Legion’s

annual convention in Cincinnati, the Democratic presidential nominee called the United States an “exceptional nation,� and accused Republican rival Donald Trump of thinking that approach is “insulting to the rest of the world.� “When we say America is exceptional, it doesn’t mean that people from other places

don’t feel deep national pride just like we do,� Clinton said. “It means that we recognize America’s unique and unparalleled ability to be a force for peace and progress, a champion for freedom and opportunity.�

She said America must be a leader in the world, “because when America fails to

lead, we leave a vacuum.�

The speech came as Trump made a to Mexico hours before he was to deliver an immigration speech. Clinton questioned the move, saying it “takes more than trying to make up for a year of insults and insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours.�

of retreated into their homes out of fear,� she said. “We are trying to tear down some of that fear and bring the community back out and together. It happens that Bishop Park is the perfect place for that.�

With a good reaction to the kickball, they hope to keep the momentum going and return the park to its former vitality. Edgston, a Corinth native, remembers going to the park as a young girl with her grandparents and watching her cousins play softball. “They used to have days in the park,� she said. “Honey Boy would set up and play music. It was a center of life, a center for the community to gather. People knew each other.�

Youth in the community now complain that they have nothing to do. “When you don’t have the

resources to go on vacation or you don’t have a pool or you don’t have a trampoline or you don’t have a mama who even wants you in the house, it’s hard, and they’re pushed out into the streets together,� said Edgston.

She would like to see some new playground equipment and the lights fixed for the basketball court so that evening play is possible. Ray Holloway, director of the two parks, said the control box for the court’s lighting has been vandalized a couple of times, and it is expensive to repair.

But he welcomes the group’s enthusiasm for making the park better. “It’s going to take a cooperative eort from us and them to make this successful,â€? said Holloway.

He said he does not look at the two parks as divided and hopes to be able to include Bishop Park in the planned

sponsorship program.

Ward 4 Alderman J.C. Hill said an eort needs to be made for equity between the parks, but he praised some of the recent cleanup work. “I’ve seen some improvement in the last several months,â€? he said, “but there’s quite a bit more that needs to be done.â€?

He recalled more active times for the park in the past with youth involved in a number of activities.

Edgston said the issues facing South Corinth aect the community as a whole, and she hopes to see a broad spectrum of people backing the eort to improve Bishop Park. “How awesome would it be,â€? she said, “to have the entire community out there working together hand-inhand to put together a playground set or to work on the walking trail.â€?

An antique tractor show presented by the Tri-State Flywheelers will also take place near the Old Courthouse Museum on Saturday morning.

Across the street in Mineral Springs Park, the main stage festival entertainment will begin at 9:30 a.m.

This year’s lineup includes Unity 4, Chuck Clark, Kay Bain, Esther Giles, Gloria’s Line Dancers, Dwight Wadkins Band and more. “We will have other activities throughout the day including vendors galore, a Kids Zone and lots of great food,� said Medlin.

Some vendors will also be set up inside the Youth Center, she said. “The Rizpah Railroad Train is returning and there will also be some games for kids set up near

the main stage,� added Medlin. “The Tishomingo County Historical & Genealogical Society is working in conjunction with the Iuka Heritage Committee this year to present the ‘heritage’ of our area, which will also be set up in the park.�

A $500 drawing will be held.

Tickets are $1 each or $5 for six tickets. “Tickets will be on sale at the festival booth in the park starting on Thursday,� Medlin said. “There will be small drawings held every hour, but the $500 drawing winner will be announced after the last performance and the winner must be present.�

Drawing prizes were donated by festival sponsors including Sonic, Sid’s Trading Company, Barnett Apothecary, Iuka Animal Clinic and John White.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for the Daily Corinthian’s Reader’s Choice Awards coming out on Saturday, Sept. 17.

Girl feels pressure to choose her path after high school D E A R ABBY: I’m a young woman of 16 years and I’m in the second year of high school.

Abigail Next year will my last, Van Buren be and then I will have the Dear Abby pressure of relatives and friends wondering what I will do with my life.

When I was little, I said I was going to be a stylist. I liked that idea, but after I did some research about it, I realized it is not for me.

I have also thought about journalism and specializing in fashion, but don’t know if it’s something I want for my life.

I would love to do medicine, perhaps pediatrics or oncology.

They are very beautiful professions. Should I pursue the career I always wanted as a child, or a career that I think is beautiful and will give me a good life?

Help! -- JULIA FROM BRAZIL DEAR JULIA: The dreams people have as children usually change as they mature. It appears that yours are no different.

The careers you are contemplating now can make a huge difference in the lives of others,

and reward you well if you work hard and are successful. If you would love the practice of medicine and have the aptitude for it, that’s the way I think you should go.

DEAR ABBY: I am terrified of driving on the interstate. It is keeping me from going places I want to go and doing things I want to do.

I don’t know anyone else with this phobia. Is there any help for someone like me? -- READY TO ROLL IN MONTANA DEAR READY: Of course there is. Your first step should be to contact a driving school to find out if it offers courses for people with a fear of driving on the interstate.

However, if you can’t bring yourself to dip your toe in the water that way, ask your physician to put you in touch with a psychotherapist who specializes in relieving people of their phobias.

DEAR ABBY: I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I work in a school, so I have the summers off, but I can’t relax and enjoy myself.

Every day I constantly think about having to go back to work when summer is over, and I dread it. I also find myself dwelling on past mistakes I have

made and regrets about things I did or didn’t do. As a result, it prevents me from enjoying the present.

Do other people have this problem?

Have you any advice to help me stop thinking about the past and the future and how I can enjoy the here and now? -- CAN’T RELAX IN NEW JERSEY DEAR CAN’T RELAX: Nothing lasts forever, including summer vacation.

However, may I point out that if you have a job you “dread” returning to, it may be time to consider finding a new one?

As to past regrets spoiling your present, a way to stop dwelling on those negative thoughts would be to say ALOUD to yourself: “That was then. This is NOW. I’m wiser now.”

Then make a conscious effort to reorient yourself to the present.

I’m not saying it won’t take vigilance and practice, but hearing yourself speak the words may snap you back to where you belong.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Don’t be surprised if your personality naturally starts to curve to the job at hand. This flexibility of form is a strength, not a weakness. It is because you are so solid at your core that you’re able to bend to your environment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Every change is a key to the door of another opportunity. It is not always clear which door the key goes to, though. You’ll spend part of the day trying different “doors,” seeking the right fit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Oddly, the difficulties attract you. Or maybe this isn’t so strange. Maybe it’s the mark of fine character to seek constant challenge. The rewards are, after all, richer where powerful efforts are the demand.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’ll ride a highly creative frame of mind all day, similar to the one you often experience just as you are drifting off to sleep. There is gold to be mined in this beautiful mix of conscious

and subconscious awareness.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The one you’re wild for is always somewhere on your mind, no matter what you’re doing.

Therefore, being thoughtful comes easily to you. You’re magnetized toward anything that might delight your love.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As for your all-consuming, deep, affectionate attachment, sometimes you can’t remember how it began. Other times you can’t have a thought that’s not remembering.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

The fresh luck will come after what’s old has been wrapped up. Consider bringing in some outside forces to finish the job faster. The results will be well worth the money.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Get the word out about what you do. Post wide and far. You’ll be surprised who can make use of your talent, and in ways you will really enjoy. That you make money too will be the cherry on top.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

21). Troubled people sense your empathetic nature, and they will tell you their problems.

Don’t let this stress you out.

Your mind will race to how you can help, but you needn’t worry: Your listening ears are help enough.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have an excellent sense for placing people in the position they are best suited to.

Now the trick is in knowing how to state things to make the job appealing to the person who should be doing it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s so much that needs to be wrapped up today that you’ll wish you had your own staff to help you finish. Unless you do have your own staff, and then you’ll wish said staff were slightly more efficient.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

To the untrained eye, your carefree ways belie your strong character. The reality is that it’s precisely because of your inner strength and faith in yourself and life’s process that you can afford to be easygoing.

Big retailers and consumer 60.09 -.77 product makers are starting to do likewise.

34.15 +.05 In July, consumer goods maker Unilever said it would Zillow Trulia 36.54 -.18 buy Dollar Shave Club, an online 43.02 +.14 merchant that offers low-cost Biggest razors, for $1 billion. In August, 44.47 -.03 e-commerce Walmart said it would snap up 36.79 -.73 buys Jet.com, a would-be rival to 25.68 -.13 Liberty Amazon, for $3 billion.

77.92 -.71 Zulily Interactive Startups aren’t typically a big 79.42 -.41 draw for retailers, but stagnating sales and the specter of 79.00 -1.64 Amazon have sparked new thinking. Retail sales are 31.46 -.15 expected to rise just 3.4 percent in 2016, according to the 2.41 -.06 National Retail Federation, short of the five-year average 33.74 -.18 of 3.9 percent. And while store chains have often 22.34 +.05 KAYAK Priceline.com consolidated in hard times – as when Sears 11.72 -.32 paid $11 billion for Kmart in 25.33 -.27 2004 – that string may 76.50 +1.02 have played out.

1.62 +.22 What retailers really 4.14 -.02 need, says Forrester Expedia Orbitz .18 +.02 analyst Sucharita Mulpuru, are “fresh 12.60 +4.28 new concepts.” And 28.15 -1.43 since those are often 2.98 -.24 easier to acquire than Dollar Shave Club Unilever 4.50 -.17 to build from scratch, she 51.33 +.37 says, count on one thing: More 36.88 -.30 startup sales to old-line retailers 13.91 -.29 looking to feel young again.

In the soup?

Initial jobless claims

Campbell Soup’s stock has slumped about 8 percent since management’s July 20 presentation to investors, when it warned of an up to 2 percent decline in sales. Management pledged to update investors on its 2017 financial targets when it reports fourth-quarter earnings on Thursday. In the nine months to May 1, sales were down 2 percent and reported operating profit was down 1 percent.

Economists expect that applications for unemployment aid ticked upward last week.

They project that the Labor Department will report today that applications rose to 265,000 from 261,000 the week before. Applications for jobless benefits remain close to historic lows. When fewer people seek benefits, it suggests that employers are keeping their workers.

A less-than-ideal birthday party WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: A few weeks ago, it was my birthday.

For months, my husband was hinting that he was going to do something very special. I was excited.

I assumed it might be a romantic dinner at my favorite restaurant in the city.

When the big day finally came, I put on my best party dress and prepared for our memorable night.

While we were driving, he began to look a little nervous. I asked him, “What is wrong, honey?” He said, “I just hope you like what we have planned.”

We pulled up to a very casual restaurant. (Needless to say, I was very overdressed.) “Party of 20,” he said to the hostess.

“Wow, a surprise party!” I thought.

When I got to the table, I looked around at the guests. With the exception of two couples, all the people there were his friends.

I put on a broad smile, but inside I was disappointed.

I ended up having a good time. When we got in the car, I asked him why my friends were not there.

He explained that most of my friends were away that weekend at a college reunion and couldn’t make it. I couldn’t help but wonder, if he knew a month in advance that my friends could not make it, why did he go through with the party anyway? — It’s My Party, and I’ll Cry if I Want

Annie’s Mailbox To Dear It’s My Party: Hold those tears, birthday girl. Your husband planned a special dinner to celebrate you.

True, he probably should have thought to rework the plan once he learned so many of your friends wouldn’t be able to make it. But this is a case in which you need to concentrate on the full half of the glass. He acted out of love. Thank him for the dinner and the nice gesture, and after some time passes, gently tell him that surprises just aren’t your thing and to please leave the party planning to you.

Dear Annie: My very healthy and able 80-yearold mother has started to repeat herself. She was widowed two years ago, and at first I attributed it to stress and grief, but it’s getting worse. She has gone for a cognitive functioning test and passed.

She is considered aboveaverage — so perhaps this repeating herself is just a part of aging.

My question is: What is kind etiquette? Do I just

let her tell the story again, or do I say I’ve heard this already? — Concerned Daughter Dear Concerned: As Joan Didion once wrote, “we tell ourselves stories in order to live.” For your mom, repeating these anecdotes is most likely a way to make sense and meaning of the past, to revisit lost loved ones and sort snapshots into an overall narrative.

Dear Annie: As a daily reader of your column, I have noted that you failed to alert readers to the possibility that medication is causing negative behavior, particularly in the elderly. Most recently, “Sad Grandma” wrote that her husband had recently started bullying their 9-year-old grandson because of his long hair, despite the fact that Grandpa himself had long hair as a teenager and the grandson had been growing his hair for a long time. Grandma and her son need to investigate side effects of any medications that Grandpa may be taking, identify any other changes in behavior or physical ability, and talk with a doctor. Changing medications or dosage could be an easy solution, although such changes in behavior could also indicate a developing serious illness. — Been There

Nearly a third of Southeastern Conference coaches enter the season with questions about their futures and potential make-or-break seasons looming over their programs.

Kevin Sumlin and Gus Malzahn, offensive whizzes who have coached Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks, are facing pressure to return to the top half of the SEC West standings.

LSU begins the season ranked No. 5, with Les Miles hoping to ride Leonard Fournette back into SEC and national title contention after barely holding onto his job last season. Kentucky’s Mark Stoops and Vanderbilt’s Derek Mason also may need to show some progress to hang on to their jobs.

The good news for the coaches is that it’s opening week, where they can start control what happens to

them going forward on the field instead of dealing with questions off it. Of course, the flip side is the intensity of the scrutiny will increase with poor performances.

“We have pegged our loyalties to LSU and we’re going to coach like we’ve always coached,” Miles said. “I’m going to bust my tail, put the best team on the field that is possible, which at LSU is a damn good football team.

And I’m not going to look

behind. I’m not going to let anyone on the perimeter distract me.”

Miles appears to have a team that could challenge No. 1 Alabama in the Western Division a year after a three-game skid put his job in jeopardy. He’s lost at least three SEC games in each of the past three seasons but also led LSU to a pair of national championship games.

NFL players cleared in PEDs investigation The Associated Press

NEW YORK — NFL stars James Harrison, Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers can start the regular season without having the specter of a league investigation over whether they used performance-enhancing drugs hanging over their heads.

The NFL cleared all three players on Wednesday, saying there was “no credible evidence” the players were guilty of any of the claims made in a documentary by Al-Jazeera America in January.

An NFL statement said “the investigation involved witness interviews, a review

of relevant records and other materials, electronic research, and laboratory analysis and review.”

The league threatened Harrison, Matthews, Peppers and free agent Mike Neal with indefinite suspensions if they did not meet with investigators.

All of them were mentioned in an Al-Jazeera television interview with Charlie Sly, who worked as an intern at an anti-aging clinic.

In the December report, Sly made claims of PED use by several athletes, including Harrison, Peyton Manning and the three others, but later

recanted his claims.

NFLPA attorney Heather McPhee sent a letter to the NFL earlier this month of accusing it of trying to “bully and publicly shame” Harrison without offering evidence beyond a brief mention in the Al-Jazeera interview.

McPhee’s letter said Harrison would meet with the NFL at 5 p.m. Aug. 30 at the team’s facility, and would only discuss the portion of the AlJazeera interview that mentioned the 14-year veteran.

The five-time Pro Bowl linebacker initially insisted NFL commissioner Roger Goodell come to Harrison’s

house to conduct the interview in person, though he later backed off.

“When it comes down to it I want to play,” Harrison said before a nearly hour-long meeting last week. “But it’s certain rules and things that they need to go through that they didn’t even go through just to even start an investigation. So, like I said before I don’t have a problem with doing an interview. Come to my house. Bring Roger with you.”

Harrison eventually had the meeting before the NFL’s deadline as did Matthews and Peppers.

Vols, App State eager to maintain momentum The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee and Appalachian State open the season Thursday attempting to build on the momentum each team established late last year.

The ninth-ranked Volunteers open the year with their highest Top 25 position since October 2006 after winning its final six games last season.

Defending national champion Alabama and San Diego State are the only Football

Bowl Subdivision teams with longer active winning streaks.

Appalachian State is coming off an 11-2 season in which it won it last four games. Now both teams try to continue those surges even after the natural roster turnover that occurs with each offseason.

“I’d say more than momentum, it builds confidence,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. “Our players expect to

win. They understand the investment it takes to win.”

So do the Mountaineers.

Appalachian State has won 17 of its last 19 game and has a veteran offensive backfield featuring quarterback Taylor Lamb and running back Marcus Cox. The Mountaineers are relative FBS newcomers who made their first bowl appearance last season and beat Ohio 31-29 in the Camellia Bowl.

But they face a much

tougher test Thursday, nine years to the day after they upset Michigan in one of college football’s greatest upsets ever. Appalachian State coach Scott Satterfield has compared Tennessee to the Clemson team that beat the Mountaineers 41-10 last season and went on to reach the College Football Playoff championship game.

Goodell begins second decade in charge of NFL The Associated Press

NEW YORK — A few years into Roger Goodell’s tenure as NFL commissioner, a grad school professor polled students on who was the most effective leader in the major sports. Goodell romped.

That was before the league locked out the players in 2011.

Before the Saints’ bounties scandal. Before the behavior of Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson — and so many others —

led to a stricter player conduct policy.

Before game officials were locked out. Before Tom Brady’s suspension in “Deflategate.” And before issues over head trauma and concussions brought player safety questions to the forefront.

A more recent informal survey by that professor saw Goodell finish a weak third behind the NBA’s Adam Silver and PGA’s Tim Finchem.

Yet, for all of the public (and players’ association) angst regarding Goodell, who enters his second decade in charge on Thursday, he couldn’t be held in higher esteem by most of the 32 team owners — his bosses.

“I know how passionate he is about the game, how committed he is,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says. “He’s spent his professional life on behalf of the National Football

League. I’ve seen him under fire. He has made good decisions. We know what a tough job it is. That’s been borne out and accentuated by the very criticism that he receives. He’s in a job that has a lot of thankless aspects to it. ... I think he’s exceeded any expectations that I might have had for him.”

Here’s where the NFL has gone in Goodell’s decade.

place and, in my opinion, starting the season, they’re ahead of where Clemson was last year,” Satterfield said.

This represents the third straight year in which Tennessee has opened by facing a team from outside the Power Five conferences that had won a bowl game the previous season. Tennessee beat Utah State 38-7 in its 2014 opener and defeated Bowling Green 59-30 to start the 2015 season.

Tennessee only led Bowling Green 35-27 early in the third quarter before pulling away down the stretch.

“I feel like it was a lesson learned,” Tennessee linebacker Darrin Kirkland Jr. said. “This year we want to focus on being the best we can every week. .... Appalachian State was an 11-2 team last year, and we really need to focus on them.”

Here are some things to watch when Tennessee hosts Appalachian State.

SOLID RUNNING GAMES — Both teams return 1,000-yard rushers from last season. Cox has run for over 1,200 yards each of the last three seasons, including a 1,423-yard performance last season. Cox ran for 103 yards against Clemson a year ago.

Tennessee’s Jalen Hurd rushed for 1,288 yards and 12 touchdowns last season. The Vols have other running threats as well. Alvin Kamara ran for 698 yards and seven touchdowns last season.

Quarterback Joshua Dobbs ran for 671 yards and 11 touchdowns.

MORE HAPPY RETURNS? — Tennessee returns the nation’s top kickoff returner

American League

and punt returner from last season. Evan Berry scored on three of his 21 kickoff returns last season and averaged 38.3 yards per attempt. Cam Sutton scored on two of his 25 punt returns and averaged 18.7 yards per attempt. Kamara also scored on a punt return last season. Tennessee’s six combined touchdowns on kickoff and punt returns were the most of any FBS team since North Carolina had seven in 2013.

RED-ZONE ISSUES — Appalachian State returns eight starters from a defense that was particularly stingy in the red zone last season. Appalachian State allowed opponents to score on just 63.6 percent of their drives inside the Mountaineers’ 20-yard line last season. Appalachian State gave up touchdowns on only 25 percent of opponents’ redzone possessions. No other FBS team gave up such a low percentage of touchdowns on red-zone drives.

PROTECTING LAMB — The Mountaineers’ chances of staying competitive could depend on whether they give Lamb enough time to throw. Appalachian State returns three starters from an offensive line that allowed only 11 sacks last season. Tennessee’s pass rush features Derek Barnett, who has recorded 10 sacks each of the last two seasons.

VOLS’ NEW DEFENSE — Thursday’s game marks the debut performance for new Tennessee defensive coordinator Bob Shoop, who held the same position at Vanderbilt from 2011-13 and at Penn State from 2014-15. Shoop takes over for John Jancek, who is now the South Florida safeties coach.

COACHES CONTINUED FROM 10

Ending a five-game losing streak to Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide would help wipe out any lingering questions of his security.

Malzahn and Sumlin, meanwhile, had great success in their debut seasons with dual-threat quarterbacks but have each posted two straight mediocre records including struggles within the league. They open with big challenges even before they can even start trying to climb up the typically loaded SEC West.

Auburn faces No. 2 Clemson and Texas A&M plays No. 16 UCLA. If the season should really unravel, it would cost Texas A&M $15 million to fire Sumlin; Auburn would owe Malzahn $9 million.

Malzahn has won just six SEC games combined the past two seasons after debuting with an SEC title and national championship game berth in 2013. He’s facing some heat after going 7-6 in a season when Auburn opened as a popular pick to win the league.

“Last year obviously we were disappointed with the ways things turned out,” Malzahn said. “If you’re a competitor, you want to do something about it. Our team’s kind of had a chip on their shoulder in the offseason, which I think is good.”

Sumlin got off to a great start, too. His Johnny Manziel-led inaugural team finished 11-2, followed by 9-4.

The last two teams have won eight games apiece but also finished sixth and tied for fifth in the

ultra-competitive West after going 3-5 and 4-4.

The Aggies have opened both those seasons with five straight wins.

“We’ve got to figure out what’s going on in the back half, I guess,” Sumlin said. “We’ve spent a lot of time in the offseason talking about what we’re doing well and what we’re not doing well, and try to stay ahead of the curve on what we do well and then address some things on the back end.”

He may have found one answer in quarterback Trevor Knight, a graduate transfer from Oklahoma who arrives after two highly touted passers transferred.

Vanderbilt’s Mason is 7-17 in two seasons after the Commodores had made three straight bowl games for the first time in school history.

That includes just two SEC wins, but he has eight returning starters on each side of the ball.

“We’re playing with a big chip on our shoulder,” Mason said. “We understand exactly where we’re at.”

Kentucky’s Stoops has downplayed talk about this being a pivotal season or possibly being on the hot seat, and Kentucky would owe him the remaining $12 million on his contract if he’s fired. Plus, Stoops has won five games each of the past two seasons, flirting with bowl trips and dramatically improving from his 2-10 debut.

“You get more comfortable at what you’re doing and going into the fourth year as a head coach,” he said. “I better be better than I was year one, right?”

Vanderbilt, South Carolina open season The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Vanderbilt Commodores and coach Derek Mason know only too well just how big an opportunity they have in their season opener.

The can kick off the year with a win at home, and against a Southeastern Conference opponent to boot.

It’s something they’ve failed to do in each of the past two seasons under Mason, and now they get to try again Thursday night when they host South Carolina on national

television.

“We need momentum, and I think that’s what we’re talking about,” Mason said. “We’re talking about a chance to see something we haven’t had an opportunity to do since I’ve been here.”

Vanderbilt hasn’t opened the season with a victory since 2011 against Elon. The Commodores bounced back nicely the last time they opened a season losing to an SEC team, going 9-4 in 2013 after losing to Mississippi. But Mason, who’s revamped his coaching staff

almost entirely since arriving on campus in 2014, is just 7-17 and is expecting to build on last year’s 4-8 record.

“We’re a team that’s got to earn respect,” Mason said. “That drives this team.”

South Carolina has won seven straight in this series and even got its lone SEC win against Vandy last season after Steve Spurrier stepped down. Now Will Muschamp is in charge trying to turn around the Gamecocks after a 3-9 record that was the league’s worst. It doesn’t help

that the schedule has the Gamecocks on the road for their first three SEC games to kick off the season, making this opener even more crucial.

“As all first ball games, you go in expecting anything and making sure your players are able to adjust to all the different things that pop up throughout the game,” Muschamp said. “There are going to be some new things and you’ve got to be able to adjust as the games goes. That’s going to be really important, especially for us.”

Network TV deals are bringing in about $28 billion overall, and DirecTV’s Sunday Ticket contract is worth another $1.5 billion a year to the NFL. Last season, 46 of the top 50 TV shows were NFL games, with “Sunday Night Football” the most-watched prime-time program for the sixth consecutive fall season. So who is holding the upper hand when renewal talks begin?

Goodell also oversaw the expansion of the draft to three days, with the first three rounds in prime time, and has made it a traveling show. Two channels, ESPN and NFL Network, broadcast every selection.

“Roger’s tenure has been one of tremendous growth for the NFL, and he has increased the impact the league has on American culture,” says ESPN President John Skipper. “He has faced intense scrutiny in how he responds to every situation, including from ESPN, and to his credit, he has remained true to his principles and the results of that vision are, by any objective measure, decidedly positive.”

The NFL also has found ways to monetize fantasy football, even as critics insist it’s a form of gambling.

And everyone knows how aggressively the NFL opposes gambling.

time confidant of Goodell’s but a vocal opponent of the commissioner in the deflated footballs case that cost New England a first-round draft pick and $1 million, generally has been one of Goodell’s biggest boosters on other matters.

Outside the NFL, his image has taken some heavy hits. While Goodell cites protecting the integrity of the game, the players’ union, fans, and advocacy groups protest his decisions. Loudly.

Despite labor peace since 2011 (and through 2020), it has been an uneasy truce.

The union challenges matters large and small — it’s obligation, of course, in representing its players — and often makes noise about reopening the collective bargaining agreement.

Goodell insisted on keeping final authority over player discipline matters during the 2011 labor talks.

As Goodell has erred, most notably in the Rice case with an initial two-game suspension so inappropriate it led to a new player conduct policy, the union has pounced. Several times, the NFL won in court. Several times, so did the union.

Every time, the public’s opinion of the commissioner diminished.

The 2012 lockout of game officials was such a fiasco that following the “Fail Mary” call in PackersSeahawks, a new contract quickly was worked out.

Goodell also has been betrayed by his investigative force, which performed

well in Michael Vick’s dogfighting case, but struggled with the Saints’ bounties.

That saga ended with Tagliabue, of all people, serving as arbiter at Goodell’s behest, voiding suspensions for four players.

Such incidents have damaged Goodell’s standing with many fan bases, most notably in New England and New Orleans.

“They have proved to have a terrible track record when it comes to investigations,” NFLPA spokesman George Atallah says.

GOODELL CONTINUED FROM 10

Finances The league to which Goodell, 57, has dedicated his entire adult life has never been more profitable.

According to Forbes, the average worth of an NFL franchise is just under $2 billion. Jones’ Cowboys are the world’s most valuable sports franchise at $4 billion. The league’s lowestvalued team at $1.4 billion, the Buffalo Bills, just signed a huge naming rights deal for its stadium.

Overall league revenues are approaching $13 billion; when Goodell replaced Paul Tagliabue in 2006, they were half that.

Goodell wants to reach $25 billion in the next decade or so.

Perhaps helping reach that goal, the NFL’s presence internationally has grown. It returns to Mexico City in November for Texans-Raiders in a soldout Estadio Azteca. Three games are played annually in London, with the NFL branching out from Wembley to other stadia, and selling out.

TV And New Ventures

The NFL’s availability has expanded significantly on TV and digitally under Goodell. Flexible scheduling on Sunday nights led to better matchups later in the schedule. A night game was Public Image added on Thanksgiving.

CBS (now joined by NBC) Goodell’s popularity jumped into the Thursday among the owners is unnight package of games al- questioned. Even the Paready on NFL Network. triots’ Robert Kraft, a long-

Concussions Probably the biggest challenge now for the NFL under Goodell — until another oddball scandal hits — is identifying and treating head trauma. Not just for current players, but for retirees; the league reached a settlement with former players that is now worth about $1 billion.

Rules changes; the institution of comprehensive return-to-play protocols for all players evaluated for concussions; the hiring of independent medical professionals; advocacy for youth concussion laws in all 50 states; and financial investments in research all are positives of Goodell’s administration.

But concerns about just how dangerous and healthaffecting the sport is will continue to plague the NFL, which must find answers to any and all safety matters.

Unquestionably, the end game always will lead to Goodell.

2. Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU Fournette, one of the most physically impressive running backs in the past decade, led the nation in rushing with 162.8 yards per game.

He struggled, however, in the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; three losses, gaining 31 yards against Alabama, 91 against Arkansas and 108 (on 25 carries) against Ole Miss. He will need to be at his best in the big games to earn a trip to New York next December.

NUMBERS TO WATCH 29.6

PRIME TIME PLAYERS Washington State junior Luke Falk led the nation with 380.1 passing yards per game a year ago. He attempted 53.7 passes per game, 9.3 more than any other QB in the nation. â&#x20AC;Ś Georgia Southern running back Matt Breida averaged 7.9 yards per carry in 2015, the most by any player with over 100 attempts. He ďŹ nished the season with 1,608 yards rushing and 17 rushing TDs. â&#x20AC;Ś Tennessee tailback Jalen

Hurd needs 892 yards to become the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time leading rusher.

Hurd has accumulated 2,187 yards in only two seasons with the Vols. â&#x20AC;Ś Iowa cornerback Desmond King tied a school record with eight interceptions en route to winning the Jim Thorpe Award in 2015. King, a senior, is the ďŹ rst winner of the Thorpe Award â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which dates back to 1986 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to return to school the following season. â&#x20AC;Ś

New Mexico State running back Larry Rose III tied for the national lead with 22 rushes of at least 20 yards in 2015.

Rose III had three games with at least 200 yards rushing. â&#x20AC;Ś Oklahoma State junior wide receiver James Washington had four receptions of at least 70 yards. â&#x20AC;Ś Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Greg Ward Jr. and Clemsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s DeShaun Watson were the only two players in the nation to top 2,000 yards passing and 1,000

yards rushing. â&#x20AC;Ś Boise State QB Brett Rypien was the only true freshman in the nation to average more than 300 passing yards per game. â&#x20AC;Ś Middle Tennesseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brent Stockstill threw for 4,005 yards as a redshirt freshman, just 52 yards shy of Jameis Winstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NCAA freshman record. â&#x20AC;Ś Clemsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Greg Huegel, a walk-on, led the nation with 27 ďŹ eld goals (in 32 attempts) as a true freshman.

STOCK REPORT The ACC might lack the depth of some of the other Power 5 leagues, but it features two of the elite teams in the nation in Florida State and Clemson. In addition, the ACC added to its impressive stable of coaches with the addition of Mark Richt (Miami), Justin Fuente (Virginia Tech), Dino Babers (Syracuse) and Bronco Mendenhall (Virginia).

Ole Miss outgained its opponents by an average of 2.2 yards per play, the largest margin in the nation. The Rebels averaged 7.1 yards per play (fourth in the nation) and allowed 4.9 yards per play (22nd).

7.3

North Carolina led the nation last season with 7.3 yards per offensive snap. The Tar Heels were one of ďŹ ve teams with more than 3,000 yards rushing and passing.

.691 Purdue coach Darrell Hazell begins his fourth season on perhaps the hottest seat in college football. Hazell has a 6â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30 record with the Boilermakers. Three of the six wins have come against FCS opponents, and Purdue is a woeful 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;22 in the Big Ten in the last three seasons.

Oklahoma and Boise State are tied for the longest streak of consecutive winning conference seasons: 17. All 17 at Oklahoma have come under Bob Stoops.

At Boise, four coaches have contributed to the streak â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dirk Koetter, Dan Hawkins, Chris Petersen and Bryan Harsin.

Kansas has won a total of four Big 12 games in the past seven seasons and has not won more than one league game since 2008.

This recent run of futility followed the most successful two-year stretch in school history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a combined 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6 record in 2007-08, highlighted by a 12â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 mark (7â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 in Big 12) in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;07.

Washington outscored its opponents by 29.6 points in its seven wins and got outscored by only 8.8 points per game in its seven losses.

New Tulane coach Willie Fritz has a .691 win percentage over 19 years as a head coach. Tulaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win percentage over that same span: .376.

Texas has lost nine games by 17 or more in Charlie Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 17 points two seasons as the head coach.

Lopsided losses are nothing new in Austin, however; each of Mack Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ nal six losses as the Longhornsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach came by at least 18 points.

Schools begin preparations for upcoming ACC Network The Associated Press

Planning, spending and even some construction projects are already underway at Atlantic Coast Conference schools in preparation for the launch of the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dedicated television channel in three years.

Not to mention the heated debate about whether future football schedules will include eight or

nine conference games.

With coaches and players set to kick oďŹ&#x20AC; the 2016 season, some ACC schools have begun drawing up construction projects to either build or retrofit existing facilities with the space and equipment needed to produce programming for the ESPN-aďŹ&#x192;liated cable network when it starts in 2019. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to finalize some

decisions fairly quickly,â&#x20AC;? North Carolina assistant athletic director Ken Cleary said.

And of course, the most valuable content for the channel will be live, compelling games.

The programming content has restarted the debate among league coaches and administrators to either expand the ACC football schedule to nine games, or leave it

at eight but require teams to also play two opponents from the other power conferences.

It all figures to add up to big money for the league and its schools, though nobody will publicly predict how much. When asked if he had an estimate for how much money the network might mean for Clemson, AD Dan Radakovich said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not one that I

want to hang my hat on.â&#x20AC;?

The ACCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent tax documents, for the fiscal year that ended in June 2015, showed average payouts of $28.4 million to its 14 football-playing schools. The Southeastern Conference distributed about $31.2 million to each of its 14 schools that year while the Big Ten paid out about $32 million to each of its 14 members.

STAT OF THE WEEK

26 Consecutive season-opening victories for Florida, which should extend that streak when Massachusetts visits the Swamp on Saturday. The Gators last lost an opener in 1989 against Mississippi.

POWER RANKINGS

4. Tennessee: A front-loaded schedule will test Butch Jones’ bunch soon enough.

Heisman-winning running back gone? No problem. Title-winning QB moved on?

Don’t worry. Alabama’s constant is Nick Saban, and the Tide again begin at the top.

Keys for Alabama RATTLE BROWNE: Max Browne, a redshirt junior, finally makes his first career start for Southern California after backing up the graduated Cody Kessler. How Browne fares in the long run remains to be seen, but he couldn’t draw a much more difficult opening assignment than the Crimson Tide. Alabama will break in a new starting quarterback of its own (again), so it might need to rely on its typically stingy defense to flummox Browne.

RELY ON THE KNOWNS: Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry is gone, and so is quarterback Jacob Coker.

So what can Alabama lean on as an offense? Sophomore wideout Calvin Ridley hauled in 1,045 yards and seven touchdowns last season, and tight end O.J. Howard demonstrated great potential at times last season. Plus, whoever ultimately emerges as the

Crimson Tide’s primary rusher will have the benefit of three starters back on the offensive line.

Keys for USC SEEK BALANCE: Alabama led the country in rushing defense last season, yielding only 75.7 yards per game on the ground. So trying to establish the run against the Crimson Tide isn’t the easiest task, but the Trojans will benefit from the presence of a pair of 900-yard rushers from a season ago (Justin Davis and Ronald Jones). Any traction they can get will help alleviate pressure on Browne, who attempted only 12 passes a season ago.

WARY OF RIDLEY: The Trojans’ secondary was quite young a year ago, and it’s a talented bunch that should take a step forward this season. Its first task is to be aware of Ridley, who had some ups and downs as a

freshman last year but was exceptional in the season’s latter stages.

Southern Cal can’t afford to get beat on big plays against a team that yields few of its own, and containing Ridley is the best way to keep Alabama from rattling off chunk plays through the air.

Prediction ALABAMA 27-13: This is the fifth consecutive year Alabama has opened with a neutral-site game, and the Crimson Tide has won the previous four — all by double digits. The defending national champions have plenty to replace from last season, but their reliable defense should help keep the Trojans in check. Southern California mostly played well after Clay Helton took over in the middle of last season, but it will take time for a team with a new quarterback to fully hit its stride.

BEST OF THE REST THIS WEEK’S OTHER TOP GAMES (2015 record in parentheses)

No. 5 LSU (9-3) vs.

Wisconsin (10-3)

No. 18 Georgia (10-3) vs.

No. 22 North Carolina (11-3)

No. 4 Florida State (10-3) vs. No. 11 Mississippi (10-3)

When: 3:30 p.m. EDT Saturday Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, Wis. TV: ABC Notes: The Tigers head to the not-sofrozen tundra to take on Wisconsin, which fielded the nation’s No. 1 scoring defense, No. 2 total defense, No. 4 rushing defense and No. 7 passing defense last season.

There’s one small problem for the Fournette Badgers: Defensive coordinator Dave Aranda was poached away by Louisiana State, which has its own history of stifling defenses. This will serve as the start of TB Leonard Fournette’s Heisman campaign as a junior, and he figures to remain at the center of the Tigers’ offense. LSU’s key for the season is developing a passing game that must be honored, and this is not the most likely of times for that to surface.

When: 5:30 p.m. EDT Saturday Where: Georgia Dome, Atlanta TV: ESPN Notes: The Kirby Smart era begins at Georgia, which has stitched together four 10-win seasons in the last five years. That wasn’t enough to save Mark Richt, who never brought a national title to Athens during his 15-year run.

Smart, a Georgia Chubb alum and former Alabama defensive coordinator, gets his first crack as a head coach in one of the country’s high-ceiling jobs. He inherits an exceptional defense as well as an offense wellpositioned to have one of the best running games in the country thanks to the return of TB Nick Chubb from a midseason knee injury. QB Mitch Trubisky takes over as North Carolina’s starter.

When: 8 p.m. EDT Monday Where: Camping World Stadium, Orlando, Fla. TV: ESPN Notes: The opening weekend of the college football season concludes as a pair of national title contenders meet on Labor Day night. Mississippi lost plenty from its defense last season, but Hugh Freeze Freeze has done a fine job of collecting talent during his tenure.

The Rebels’ biggest loss might be WR Laquon Treadwell, whose departure leaves QB Chad Kelly without his most capable target. Still, Kelly is one of the top signal-callers in the SEC, and he’ll receive a fine test from a Florida State defense that is loaded on the line and in the secondary. This will be the first start for Seminole redshirt freshman WR Deondre Francois.

5. Florida: Until the Gators’ offense can show some punch against high-end opponents, there will be some skepticism about Florida’s ceiling.

6. Georgia: The Bulldogs face an explosive North Carolina team unable to stop the run.

7. Arkansas: If they can make it out of September at 3-1, they could be a dangerous factor in the SEC West race.

8. Texas A&M: With a tough September, the Aggies will have a decent idea just where they stand within the next month.

9. Auburn: The Tigers won’t underachieve like last year, if only because they aren’t almost universally considered a top-10 team.

10. Mississippi State: Dak Prescott is gone, so the Bulldogs aren’t quite the wild card they were last year.

11. Missouri: Barry Odom’s debut season as the Tigers’ coach involves trying to bounce back from a 5-7 disappointment.

12. Kentucky: After plateauing last year, the Wildcats will seek a breakthrough in what could be a crucial season for Mark Stoops.

13. Vanderbilt: The Commodores’ defense should keep them in a fair number of games this fall.

14. South Carolina: Will Muschamp now (basically) takes over for Steve Spurrier in Columbia after succeeding Urban Meyer at Florida.
