ban on burning

County and city-owned Magnolia Regional Health Center will not be affected by the dispute.

Some Crossroads area residents may be affected by the recent dispute between a Tupelo hospital group and a healthcare provider.

North Mississippi Health Services – who manages North Mississippi Medical CenterTupelo, four community hospitals including NMMC-Iuka and

more than two dozen clinics throughout the area – are moving to terminate provider agreements with United Healthcare because the insurer has failed to pay them accurately.

“We have received a ton of calls of confusion,” said Meredith King, co-owner of Crossroads Insurance in Corinth.

A good rain about two weeks ago was not enough to wash away the burn ban.

The prohibition of burning activities continues under both a ban imposed by Alcorn County and a separate ban enacted by the state.

Emergency Services Coordinator Ricky Gibens said some people believe the rain cleared the way for outdoor burning, but that is not the case.

“Conditions are still pretty dry,” he said. “I’ve got a brush pile in my back yard I’d like to burn, but I can’t.”

The rain gauge at the airport recorded 1.48 inches on Oct. 14 and another 0.12 inch the following day.

“That was a good slow rain, but here’s the thing — the ground was so dry that the ground just

soaked it up,” said MSU Extension Agent Patrick Poindexter.

The county has seen no rainfall since then, and the National Weather Service Memphis Forecast Office does not anticipate a substantial chance of rain until late next week. Meanwhile, temperatures climbing into the 80s will aggravate the dry conditions.

Gibens said Halloween and fall festival type activities should avoid any burning other than the use of gas or charcoal grills and fire pits, and the fire must be extinguished immediately after use. With the dry conditions, a cigarette tossed out a car window or a spark of any kind can easily lead to a wildfire.

In the agricultural scene, the drought-like conditions this fall have mainly affected soybeans.

Roll up and roll down.

Magnolia Regional Health Center will host their annual Drive Thru Flu Shot event on Friday.

Set for 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the MRHC Outpatient Complex on Harper Road, the event will provide the public with free flu vaccinations for anyone, ages six months and up.

“The flu shot is everyone’s best protection against the flu and the Drive Thru Flu Shot is the best way to get vaccinated,” said MRHC Marketing Director Ben Tucker. “The event allows individuals wanting a shot to simply drive up, roll down their windows and roll up their sleeves.”

Thousands of deaths are attributed to the flu each year.

Hand-washing and staying home when ill are ways to help curb the spread of the flu.

Each person receiving the vaccination will be required to sign a consent form. Those who have an egg allergy, will not be able to receive the vaccination.

National guard honored at retirement

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

BOONEVILLE — A hometown hero came home Saturday night.

A humble Major General Augustus Leon Collins was honored with a downtown event celebrating his retirement at the end of August as Mississippi’s Adjutant General, the top official over the national guard in the state.

“I’m just an old country boy from Booneville that was given a lot of encouragement from a lot of people,” he told the crowd after being lauded by a string of local and state officials and presented with a key to the city and

a copy of the road sign designating the newly renamed General Collins Drive in Booneville.

Collins, a Booneville High School graduate, enlisted in the guard in Booneville and advanced through the ranks to lead the 155th Brigade Combat Team during Operation Iraqi Freedom and become the first African-American to be promoted to the rank of general in the Mississippi National Guard.

Along the way he served in numerous leadership positions, helping lead and train thousands of troops.

A visibly emotional Collins listed the names of many of his teachers throughout the years

and said the recognition for all he has been able to do should go not to him but to his family and to all of those who loved and encouraged him along the way.

“Whatever I am, whatever I’ve accomplished it’s not because of anything special about me but about the people who have touched my life,” he said.

U.S. Representative Trent Kelly, himself a colonel and 30-year veteran of the Mississippi National Guard, served with Collins including time in combat in Iraq. Kelly said the general is the perfect example of a true soldier’s officer who Please see COLLINS | 2

Sweat memories shared

DISPUTE CONTINUED FROM 1

BY BOBBY J. SMITH

“Even though this only affects the Tupelo hospital and their clinics, anyone who goes to those properties to see a specialist should be aware of the change – especially if they have United Healthcare.”

King said she contacted both the hospital and the insurer on behalf of her clients.

“North Mississippi Health Services will continue to accept United Healthcare supplements or AARP insurances, but will not accept any employer or any other United Healthcare insurance

Judge James L. Roberts Jr., a circuit judge in the First Circuit Court District, shared memories of the late Noah S. “Soggy” Sweat Jr. during a tribute to the late “whiskey speech” writer on Tuesday.

Roberts remembered Sweat as a great patriotic American who was a combat veteran of World War II and a reformer who brought professionalism to North Mississippi’s judicial community.

“A lot of the professionalism we enjoy today is a direct handoff from Soggy Sweat. He was a person who I believe to be a hero of the profession, and I was privileged to get to know him some,” said Roberts.

The circuit judge also remembered Sweat as a humble man who knew how to accomplish great things without taking the credit for himself.

He said he believed that if Sweat was alive today he would still be working for the betterment of the community.

He also spoke with pride of the famous judge’s Alcorn County roots.

“It is wonderful that he’s from Alcorn County,” said Roberts. “He was one of us.”

“We are seeing some possibility of reduced yields due to drought conditions based upon when those soybeans were planted,” said Poindexter. “We have also

and collect data, but the hospital declined. The healthcare provider then agreed to share the information directly.

County and city-owned Magnolia Regional Health Center will not be affected in any way by the dispute.

“We are currently contracted with all United plans in the state of Mississippi, with the exception of their health exchange products,” said Ben Tucker, director of marketing and public relations at MRHC. “We have no intentions of that changing in the foreseeable future.”

Artist Robbie Boyd’s portrait of Soggy Sweat will hang over the courtroom in the Alcorn County Courthouse.

The tribute also featured remarks from a distinguished lineup of Mississippi’s judiciary branch, including speakers Judge Neal B. Biggers, United States District judge for the Northern District of Mississippi; Judge William L. Waller Jr., the chief justice of the Mississippi Supreme Court; Judge Randy G. Pierce, direc-

tor of the Mississippi Judicial College and Judge Ed Perry, a former state representative from Oxford, who closed the tribute with a performance of Sweat’s famous speech.

Artist Robbie Boyd was on hand to unveil her portrait of Sweat that will permanently hang over the courtroom he presided over.

The two groups did agree earlier this week to share research and information in hopes of resolving the dispute.

North Mississippi Health Services discovered discrepancies this spring, with electronic payments from United Healthcare that came through as $0. Research by the hospital group has shown the problem could go back years.

Some pasture land has also been affected, with the dryness prompting an

early onset of dormancy.

A number of trees shed their leaves early, prompting some concerned calls from residents, but Poindexter said these trees should weather the dryness without any problem.

“Arsenic and Old Lace” at the Crossroads Playhouse. “Be prepared for many laughs provided by an astonishing cast. You will see love, death, and attempted murder with laughter caused by the aforementioned topics.”

Patrons may remember the McNairy County resident from his plays at Arts in McNairy.

“Though this is my first production in Corinth, I have been directing in Selmer for the last three years,” said Steele, who directed “Cheating Death” in 2014, “Lizzie Borden of Fall River” in 2015 and “You Can’t Take it With You” in 2016.

The Selmer native’s latest venture opens to find two, charming and innocent ladies, Abby and Martha Brewster (Lesley Petty and Della Miller) who populate their cellar with the remains of socially and religiously “acceptable” boarders by poisoning them with a glass of homemade elderberry wine. The deadly draft is laced with arsenic, strychnine, and “just a pinch” of cyanide.

In addition to the misguided aunts, spectators will also meet their two nephews – the delusional yet, entertaining Teddy Brewster (Dan Marsh) who believes he is Teddy Roosevelt and the murderous Jonathan Brewster (Dave Frost) who has received plastic surgery performed by his alcoholic accomplice, Dr. Einstein (Jackson Turner) to look like horror-film actor Boris Karloff.

Serving as the hero of the play, writer and newspaperman Mortimer Brewster (Matt Wood) and his fiancée, Elaine Harper (Channing Palmer) quickly realize the Brewster family is crazier than they thought and quickly take measures to rectify the horrifying situation.

Just in time for Halloween, the American dark comedy will be present-

A 2 p.m. matinée will be presented on Sunday.

Tickets are $12 for adults and $6 for children. The production is produced by Della and Cindy Miller and is sponsored by Wood, Carlton & Hudson, P.C. “The last time we presented ‘Arsenic and Old Lace’, we did a Friday, Saturday and Sunday night showing and reserved Thursday night for our sponsors,” said CT-A board member Josh Steen. “Our sponsors are extremely important to us and we are grateful for their generosity without which we could not do what we love doing.

That being said, we are bringing back our private showings for sponsors on Thursday as a token of our appreciation and will only have public showings Friday thru Sunday.”

“We are always in need of volunteers and any and all help is appreciated. So, if you build things in your garage and would like to help us with set building, we would love to have you. Volunteer opportunities are available for everyone, regardless of age and experience. No one will be turned away.”

“If you learned sound

in your church or directed your child’s production, you would qualify to be a stage manager,” agreed board member and seamstress Whitney Gooch. “We always need tech people, builders and ushers. Also, if you can sew, please come see me.

We could really use a few more seamstresses.”

knew he was going to do so much,” said the retired teacher.

Collins’ high school classmate and longtime friend Gary Walker organized Saturday’s celebration and said the general has blessed the country and his hometown with his willingness to sacrifice and dedicate his life to protecting freedom.

“My heart is just bursting with joy knowing that one of our own from right here in Booneville has given so much to America,” said Walker.

State Representative Tracy Arnold said he has gotten to know Collins through work at the state capitol and has found him to not only be a strong leader for the state, but a man after God’s own heart who has used his faith in God to help him

make the tough decisions required in his career.

“He is an awesome leader, a Godly leader.

He’s a man of great faith,” said Arnold.

State Senator JP Wilemon also thanked Collins for his leadership and service to the state and country.

In presenting the key to the city and the road marker to the general, Mayor Derrick Blythe said Collins has been a great representative and ambassador for the city and all of Booneville is indebted to him for his service.

“It is a great pleasure to honor someone like General Collins,” he said.

Collins plans to continue to live near Jackson where he has begun a career in the private sector after completing his military service.

earned the respect of those who served under him by showing them his care and concern.

“He cared about each and every soldier,” said Kelly. “They knew General Collins loved and respected them and they knew General Collins was doing what was best for them, this country and the state of Mississippi.”

Booneville Alderman David Bolen knew Collins first as a young student he taught in sixth and eighth grade and coached on the football field. He recalled him as a determined student who had a spark about him that hinted of bigger things.

Today in History Today is Thursday, Oct. 27, the 301st day of 2016. There are 65 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 27, 1787, the first of the Federalist Papers, a series of essays calling for ratification of the United States Constitution, was published.

On this date: In 1858, the 26th president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, was born in New York City.

In 1880, Theodore Roosevelt married his first wife, Alice Lee. In 1922, the first annual celebration of Navy Day took place.

In 1938, Du Pont announced a name for its new synthetic yarn: “nylon.”

In 1941, the Chicago Daily Tribune dismissed the possibility of war with Japan, editorializing, “She cannot attack us.

That is a military impossibility. Even our base at Hawaii is beyond the effective striking power of her fleet.”

In 1954, U.S. Air Force Col. Benjamin O. Davis Jr. was promoted to brigadier general, the first black officer to achieve that rank in the USAF. Walt Disney’s first television program, titled “Disneyland” after the yetto-be completed theme park, premiered on ABC. In 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, a U-2 reconnaissance aircraft was shot down while flying over Cuba, killing the pilot, U.S. Air Force Maj. Rudolf Anderson Jr. In 1978, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin were named winners of the Nobel Peace Prize for their progress toward achieving a Middle East accord.

In 1995, a sniper killed one soldier and wounded 18 others at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

(Paratrooper William J. Kreutzer was convicted in the shootings, and condemned to death; the sentence was later commuted to life in prison.)

With three locations inside Corinth city limits, other Dollar General stores in the county include Farmington, Biggersville and Kossuth.

Ripley Ex-firefighter pleads guilty in deadly fire RIPLEY — A former firefighter charged with arson fires in Union County has pleaded guilty to charges on a fire that ended with the death of a woman in the home.

William Cody Lambert, 29, entered guilty pleas to second degree murder and arson during a hearing in Tippah County Circuit Court this week.

Lambert is accused of setting the fires in hopes of being thought of as a hero for rescuing the people inside.

One fire resulted in the death of Myrtle Mae Owen at her home on County Road 174 in the Alpine Community in Union County in 2009.

Lambert was ordered to serve every day of a 32 year sentence.

Iuka Officials respond to shooting report IUKA — A family disturbance Monday afternoon near Tishomingo State Park ended in gunfire, sending one man to the hospital.

The Tishomingo County Sheriff’s Office was notified of the shoot-

ing in the Dennis area around 4:20 p.m. on Oct. 24. The caller said the victim was at a residence on County Road 87 while the shooter was at a house on County Road 75.

While deputies split up between the two locations, paramedics stood by nearby, waiting for law enforcement to clear the scene. The victim had a non-life threatening gunshot wound to the upper right leg. He refused medical treatment by the paramedics, saying he would drive himself to the hospital.

Statements were taken from the victim, the alleged shooter and an eyewitness. The preliminary investigation showed the incident was a family disturbance.

Booneville Boo Parade slated for Monday evening BOONEVILLE — The Booneville Boo Parade and Costume Contest will be Monday, Oct. 31 at 5:30 p.m. at the old Booneville Hardware building in downtown Booneville.

Columbus Town Creek Campground closing COLUMBUS — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Tennessee-Tombigbee Water-

way Project will close its Town Creek Campground during the 2016-2017 winter season starting Nov. 1 and reopening Feb. 28, 2017. During the seasonal closure the project will be making repairs to waterlines at the facility.

Town Creek Campground is located off Highway 50 west on Columbus Lake in Clay County. As an alternative, USACE will keep DeWayne Hayes Campground open during the winter season. This campground is located at 7934 Barton Ferry Road in Columbus, directly across the lake and only a short drive from Town Creek Campground and Columbus Air Force Base.

Tuplelo Expansion finished at Elvis birthplace TUPELO — After more than four years and more than $7 million, the renovation and expansion of the Elvis Birthplace and Museum is complete.

No other plans are in the works, but executive director Dick Guyton said, “Now it’s time to maintain it.”

The third and final phase of the renovation was centered around the lake and surrounding area. The work added a water fountain, a new paved walkway around the lake, several benches along the path and replacement of the old bridge.

The lake was drained and filled for the work.

“But what we don’t have is a lot of water,” Guyton said. “It’s about 10 inches below normal, so we could use some rain.”

The first phase of the project, unveiled in August 2012, added a new 126-seat theater and a 75-seat outdoor amphitheater.

Tupelo CVB launches grant program for tourism TUPELO — Organizations looking to boost tourism can get help from the Tupelo Convention and Visitors Bureau

reports The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.

For the past four years, the CVB has distributed nearly $80,000 per year, and looks to do the same this year.

The Tupelo CVB is accepting requests through Nov. 15 for fiscal year 2017, which runs from Oct. 1 of this year through Sept. 30 of next year. The goal of the matching grant program is to fund the promotion of special events and festivals that attract overnight visitors to Tupelo.

“Events are tourism drivers for Tupelo,” said Neal McCoy, executive director of the Tupelo CVB. “These grants are designed to help promote festivals and special events that bring people into Tupelo to spend the night.”

The maximum amount that an organization can receive is $15,000, and a 30 percent match is required to request funding from TCVB. In addition, organizations are limited to asking for no more than 70 percent of their total marketing budget.

Saltillo Saltillo first to hear Vision Plan process SALTILLO — The future direction of Saltillo could be determined in the next 10 days, and city leaders are asking the public to help in the process, reports The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.

The city will be the first in the state to participate in the Mississippi Vision Plan process, sponsored by the Mississippi Main Street Association.

“We are really excited about this,” said Saltillo Main Street director Lindsey Hines. “It’s been a long time since March when we were named a Main Street community.

“I can’t wait to get the results – when they tell us here’s what we found, here are things you can start implementing immediately.”

The public side of the three-day project will kick off with a communi-

ty input meeting Nov. 1.

The ultimate goal for the Vision Plan is to provide the community with an on-going, flexible work plan that city leaders and the Saltillo Main Street program can use to guide the continued revitalization and development of the town and stimulate further economic growth.

Oxford Man faces charges in armed robbery OXFORD — A Lafayette County man had been charged with a felony after robbing someone who offered him a lift.

Oxford police investigators charged Anthony Wilson, 42, of Oxford, with one count of armed robbery and one count of robbery in Tuesday.

The alleged armed robbery occurred Oct. 21 when Wilson asked for a ride to Anderson Road. Once in the vehicle, Anderson produced a firearm and took clothing and food from the victim. The victim was not injured at the time of the robbery.

Wilson’s bond was set at $25,000.

Oxford 16 UM students earn scholarships OXFORD — Sixteen University of Mississippi students have been named as recipients of major scholarships this fall in the School of Engineering.

Representing Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana, they are this year’s Brevard, John G. Adler and Harper Johnson scholars. This exceptional group of students posted an average ACT score of 32.3 and an average 3.92 high school grade-point average.

“Each year, our incoming classes increase in quality and quantity,” Dean Alex Cheng said.

“These students are just a sample of the outstanding students choosing to enroll at the university and pursue a degree within the School of Engineering.”

Corinth, Miss.

Hanging out in the hanging gardens VEZAC, France — Anyone who knows me well knows I have no patience for groomed grounds and formal gardens, and much prefer what I once heard called “uncontrolled profusion.” Yes, if something will grow and spread, that’s what I plant.

I never, ever wanted a grownup yard.

But I went with friends to a French garden in the Dordogne called Marqueyssac, or Rheta The Hanging Gardens of MarJohnson queyssac, and my hat is off to gardeners with this much conColumnist trol and sharp shears.

Look it up, and you’ll see what I mean. To begin with, there are 150,000 boxwoods at Marqueyssac, none of them boxy or boring. They are planted in clumps, or clusters, and pruned by hand (twice a year) into geometric shapes, including one amazing area that looks like stones in a chateau. Another cluster resembles sheep, if the sheep were being herded and running side by side.

We’re not talking typical topiary here, but more the look of a brain if it were huge and green. Almost the stuff of a sci-fi movie. The Blob, but green and made of boxwoods.

I love the holly at Callaway Gardens and the azaleas at Bellingrath and the wisteria at the Biltmore. Showy gardens usually have one thing that blows you away.

Here the vista is the best thing, with the Dordogne River and its tourist boats below, and in plain sight the houses built right into the cliffs at La Roque Gageac. You could plant one package of zinnia seeds and still have a remarkable garden with this view.

Even better, though, is the chateau that goes with the gardens, though the tail definitely wags the dog. It is simple but luxurious, and its most impressive feature is the roof. Made of limestone slabs, it weighs more than 500 tons.

Or that’s what the tour brochure claims, and I don’t know why you’d lie about the weight of your roof.

There are more than 4 miles of walkways at the gardens, and I might have made it 1 mile.

I have an ailing foot, which means I must pace myself. But I did see the chapel and the pigeon pen and the astounding view before sitting to watch people thread through the boxwoods.

You can’t help but notice the decorum in public places in France, the quiet voices that offer a “pardon” if you’re bumped on a path.

The children and dogs are better behaved than in our country, and neither runs wild through these gardens.

Nobody litters, either, and I could count on one hand the pieces of trash I’ve seen by the side of the road in miles of exploration.

Southwest France is clean, and polite.

And the impressive flora isn’t limited to formal gardens where you pay to walk around. I’ve seen banana trees, bamboo, magnolias, nandina and gardenia -- all things that remind me of home -- all around.

I always get eye-rolls when I return home with fancy French ideas for my sow’s ear of a place in the hollow. This time it is a special way to prune the wisteria. My friend Robert Clay will be dismayed to hear about this. He always helps me with that annual chore.

On the side of a bistro, a mature wisteria was pruned to look like another tree, perhaps an oak, with its trunk supporting the green branches. Now, why wouldn’t that work in Fishtrap Hollow?

Prayer for today Lord God, may I not wait until I am afflicted and cannot use them to thank thee for my blessings. Guard me against infirmities that are brought on through indulgences, and help me to control my life. May I never forget that regret will not retrieve the life that is spent, even if it brings forgiveness and hope for the days to come. Amen.

Dump Duterte — for starters Alliances are transmission belts of war.

So our Founding Fathers taught and the 20th century proved.

As the other Western powers bled and bankrupted themselves, Pat we emerged Buchanan relatively unscathed as Columnist the world’s No. 1 power.

The Brits and French lost their empires, and much else, and ceased to be great powers.

Stalin’s annexation of Central Europe and acquisition of an atom bomb, and Mao’s triumph in China in 1949, caused us to form alliances from Europe to Korea, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines and Australia.

Yet, with the end of the Cold War, we did not dissolve a single alliance.

NATO was expanded to embrace all the nations of the former Warsaw Pact and three former republics of the USSR. This hubristic folly is at the heart of present tensions with Russia.

Now, Beltway hawks have begun to push the envelope to bring former Soviet republics Moldova, Ukraine

and Georgia into NATO, with some urging us to bring in the Cold War neutrals Sweden and Finland.

Given the resentment of the Russian people toward America, for exploiting their time of weakness after the breakup of the Soviet Union, to drive our alliance onto their front porch, such moves could trigger a conflict that could escalate to nuclear weapons.

Moscow has warned us pointedly and repeatedly about this.

Yet now that the election is almost over, neocons burrowed in their think tanks are emerging to talk up U.S. confrontations with Syria, Russia, Iran and China.

Restraining America’s War Party may be the first order of business of the next president.

Fortunately, after the Libyan debacle, President Obama has lost any enthusiasm for new wars.

Indeed, he has a narrow window of opportunity to begin to bring our alliances into conformity with our interests -- by serving notice that the United States is terminating its 1951 Mutual Defense Treaty with Manila.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is proving himself to be an unstable anti-American autocrat,

who should not be entrusted with the power to drag us into war over some rocks or reefs in the South China Sea. Duterte harbors a lifelong grudge against America for our war of 1899-1902 to crush the Philippine independence movement, after Admiral Dewey sank the Spanish fleet in Manila Bay. We liberated the Philippines, only to annex them.

A longtime mayor on Mindanao before being elected president, Duterte is reputedly the godfather of death squads that executed drug dealers and users. Now, the practice has apparently been introduced nationwide.

While campaigning, Duterte said he would Jet Ski 120 miles to Scarborough Shoal, which is occupied by China though it is in Manila’s territorial waters.

Since then, he has flipped and become outspokenly pro-China.

Before attending a summit in Laos, Duterte called President Obama “the son of a whore.” He has insulted America and canceled joint military exercises. In Beijing he announced a “separation from the United States. ...

No more American influence. No more American [military] exercises. It’s time to say goodbye.”

“I would rather go to Russia and to China,” he added.

Would termination of our Mutual Defense Treaty mean severing ties with the Filipino people? By no means.

What it would do, though, is this: restore America’s absolute freedom to act or not act militarily in the South China Sea, according to our interests, and not Duterte’s whims.

Whether we intervene on Manila’s behalf or not, the decision would be ours alone. Terminating the treaty would absolve us of any legal or moral obligation to fight for Scarborough Shoal, Mischief Reef or any of the other rocks in a South China Sea that are now in dispute between Beijing and half a dozen nations.

A U.S. decision to terminate the treaty would also send a wake-up call to every ally: America’s Cold War commitments are not forever.

Your security is not more important to us than it is to you. As Donald Trump has been saying, we are starting to put America first again.

Immigration breeds controversies Despite controversies that rage over immigration, it is hard to see how anyone could be either for or against immigrants in general. First of all, there are no immigrants in general.

Both in the Thomas Sowell present and in the past, Columnist some immigrant groups have made great contributions to American society, and others have contributed mainly to the welfare rolls and the prisons. Nor is this situation unique to the United States. The same has been true of Sweden and of other countries in Europe and elsewhere.

Sweden was, for a long time, one of the most ethnically homogeneous countries in the world. As of 1940, only about one percent of the Swedish population were immigrants.

Even as the proportion of immigrants increased over the years, as late as 1970 90 percent of foreign-born persons in Sweden had been born in other Scandinavian countries or in Western Eu-

rope.

These immigrants were usually well-educated, and often had higher labor force participation rates and lower unemployment rates than the native Swedes.

That all began to change as the growing number of immigrants came increasingly from the Middle East, with Iraqis becoming the largest immigrant group in Sweden.

This changing trend was accompanied by a sharply increased use of the government’s “social assistance” program, from 6 percent in the pre-1976 era to 41 percent in the 1996-1999 period. But, even in this later period, fewer than 7 percent of the immigrants from Scandinavia and Western Europe used “social assistance,” while 44 percent of the immigrants from the Middle East used that welfare state benefit.

Immigrants, who were by this time 16 percent of Sweden’s population, had become 51 percent of the long-term unemployed and 57 percent of the people receiving welfare payments.

The proportion of foreigners in prison was 5 times their proportion in the population of the country.

The point of all this is that there is no such thing as immigrants in general, whether in Europe or America. Yet all too many of the intelligentsia in the media and in academia talk as if immigrants were abstract people in an abstract world, to whom we could apply abstract principles -- such as “we are all descendants of immigrants.”

Some people like to refer to the past as “earlier and simpler times.” But it is we today who are so simpleminded that it would be taboo to do anything so politically incorrect as to sort out immigrants by what country they came from. As Hillary Clinton said in one of her recently revealed emails, she is for “open borders.”

However congenial the idea of open borders may be to elites who think of themselves as citizens of the world, it is not even possible to have everyone come to America and the country still remain America.

What is it that makes this country so different that so many people from around the world have, for centuries, wanted to come here, more so than to any other

country?

What is unique are American institutions, American culture and American economic and other achievements within that framework.

People who came here a hundred years ago usually did so in order to fit within the framework of America and become Americans.

Some still do. But many come from a very different cultural background -- and our own multiculturalism dogmas and grievance industry work to keep them foreign and resentful of Americans who have achieved more than they have.

Some immigrant groups seek to bring to America the very cultures whose failures led them to flee to this country. Too many Americans have become so gullible that they are afraid to even get the facts about which immigrants have done well and improved America, and which have become a burden that can drag us all down.

Booneville band wins fourth straight title

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

The Booneville Blue Devil Band kept its promise - all the way to a fourth straight state title.

The band swept the Class 3A state marching championships with its show “The Promise” taking home the overall grand champion honor along with first place awards for color guard, percussion, general effect, marching and music.

“It’s been a really great year,” said Jada Forsythe who, with her husband, Josh Forsythe, directs the band. Selmer, Tenn. native Josh Forsythe is the former band director at Alcorn Central High School. Jada is a native of Booneville.

Jada Forsythe said the success is a tribute to the dedication of the students who have worked tirelessly throughout the year to field their most complex show ever.

“The kids have stepped up and really taken on a lot of responsibility,” she said.

Added responsibility came not only to the students, but to Josh Forsythe who found himself

leading the band solo for several weeks early in the season for a very special reason - the birth of the couple’s child.

“We’ve had so much going on, it’s been a whirlwind of a year,” said Jada.

She said she’s extremely proud of the students and their willingness to buy-in to the dream of what can be accomplished and put in the hard work it takes to find continued success.

The performance at the championship competition was their best of the year and it showed in the shower of awards.

Forsythe is quick to give credit to all those who help the band achieve its success including show designer Tim Pierce who she said created a powerful, relatable show.

“We knew it was going to be special the first time we heard it,” she said.

The band’s success would also not be possible without major support from an army of parents who give of their time and resources to support their young musicians as well as the support of the school administration and the entire commu-

Local Modern Woodmen Financial Representative Zeb Taylor honors Debra Wheeler for her counless hours of service to her students.

Teacher named Hometown Hero For the Daily Corinthian

IUKA — Local teacher Debra Wheeler was honored as a Modern Woodmen of America Hometown Hero. Wheeler was recognized for her countless hours of service to all her students at Burnsville Elementary and Junior High in Burnsville. She goes above and beyond as a teacher.

Here are a few comments some of Wheeler’s past students have said about her. “Without Ms. Wheeler as a teacher I would not have my “Out of the Box” thinking. She showed me that even though the way you accomplish something may be different it does not mean it is wrong.” Another of her students said, “Ms. Wheeler helped me discover my creative spirit and without her I would not have really opened up to all that am and can be.”

As part of the Hometown Hero Program, members of the Iuka Modern Woodmen Chapter presented Wheeler with a certificate and $100 award grant to be donated to charitable organization of her choice.

Wheeler selected St. Jude to receive the donation.

“Volunteers form the foundation of a strong community.” says Zeb Taylor, local Modern Woodmen Financial Representative. “Modern Woodmen’s Hometown Hero Program gives us the chance to thank those who selflessly give their time to make the world a better place.”

Coordinated by local Modern Woodmen members, the fraternal

financial services organization’s Summit chapters, Chapters, and Youth Service Clubs provide opportunities for members to take part in social and educational activities and volunteer projects to meet local needs.

As a tax-exempt fraternal benefit society, Modern Woodmen sells life

insurance, annuity and investment* products not to benefit stockholders but to improve quality of life for its members, their families and their communities. This is accomplished through social, charitable and volunteer activities. Annually, Modern Woodmen and its members provide nearly $20 million and over 400,000 volunteer hours for community project nationwide.

BY JULIE PACE AND EMILY SWANSON Associated Press

NEW YORK — Hillary Clinton appears on the cusp of a potentially commanding victory over Donald Trump, fueled by solid Democratic turnout in early voting, massive operational advantages and increasing enthusiasm among her supporters.

A new Associated Press-GfK poll released Wednesday finds the Democratic nominee has grabbed significant advantages over her Republican rival with just 12 days left before Election Day. Among them: consolidating the support of her party and even winning some Republicans.

“I’m going to pick Hillary at the top and pick Republican straight down the line,” said poll respondent William Goldstein, a 71-year-old from Long Island, New York, who voted for Mitt Romney in 2012. “I can’t vote for Trump.”

Overall, the poll shows Clinton leading Trump nationally by a staggering 14 percentage points

among likely voters, 51-37. While that is one of her largest margins among recent national surveys, most show the former secretary of state with a substantial national lead over the billionaire businessman.

The AP-GfK poll finds that Clinton has secured the support of 90 percent of likely Democratic voters, and also has the backing of 15 percent of more moderate Republicans. Just 79 percent of all Republicans surveyed say they are voting for their party’s nominee.

With voting already underway in 37 states, Trump’s opportunities to overtake Clinton are quickly evaporating — and voters appear to know it. The AP-GfK poll found that 74 percent of likely voters believe Clinton will win, up from 63 percent in September.

Troubles with President Barack Obama’s signature health care law have given Trump a late opening to warn voters against putting another Democrat in the White House. But even Republicans question whether the rising cost

of insurance premiums is enough to overcome the damage the businessman has done to his standing with women and minorities.

“Donald Trump has spent his entire campaign running against the groups he needs to expand his coalition,” said Whit Ayres, a Republican pollster who advised Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s failed presidential campaign.

Ayres called Trump’s campaign “strategically mindless.”

Even if Clinton’s support plummets in the contest’s closing days, or she’s unable to motivate strong turnout in her favor, it’s not clear that Trump could marshal the resources to take advantage and collect enough states to win the 270 electoral votes needed to claim the White House.

Clinton’s team has overwhelmed Trump’s campaign in its effort to turn out voters.

An Associated Press review of campaign finance filings finds that her campaign, the Democratic National Committee and Democratic parties in 12

states have more than three times as many paid employees as Trump’s campaign and the main Republican organizations supporting him.

Clinton and Democrats had about 4,900 people on payroll in September, while Trump and Republicans had about 1,500.

Both sides benefit from legions of volunteers knocking on doors and making phone calls to voters, as well as outside forces such as unions and super PACs pitching in on voter turnout operations. But key Republican groups such as the ones funded by the conservative billionaire Koch brothers are sitting out the presidential race because of their distaste for Trump, further extending Clinton’s likely advantage at getting out the vote.

The strength of the Democratic turnout effort appears to be paying dividends in states where voting is underway. Nationwide, more than 12 million voters have already cast ballots, according to data compiled by the AP, a pace far quicker than 2012.

Trump spends day promoting new hotel

BY BETH J. HARPAZ AP Travel Editor

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Donald Trump may be spending most of his days inside the frantic hurricane of the presidential campaign, but inside his new hotel in Washington, calm and luxury prevail.

Staff members offer impeccable service, serving Champagne to guests waiting to check in and preparing rooms with turned-down covers and bedside chocolates.

Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., says he’s confident the Trump International Hotel fronting Pennsylvania Avenue a few blocks from the White House will be a place for both Democrats and Republicans — no matter who wins.

“It’s not designed to be a partisan hotel,” Trump Jr. said. “It’s a luxury hotel for all of D.C.” That remains to be seen. Hundreds of peo-

ple protested outside the hotel during the ribboncutting Wednesday. The rally started as a protest demanding that Trump recognize union representation for workers at a Las Vegas hotel, but it broadened into a larger anti-Trump event.

Trump attended the ribbon-cutting, calling it a “metaphor for what we can accomplish” and taking precious time away from an apparently sagging campaign.

He summed up the project with only a few words: “under budget and ahead of schedule.”

And he noted the renovation and operation of the hotel had created hundreds of jobs.

The Trump Organization agreed to open the hotel by 2018 and invest $200 million in it in a deal with the federal government, which owns the site. A Trump website describes the project as costing $200 million, so

it was unclear what the “under budget” statement referred to.

The hotel staff appears as diverse as any workforce in America — despite Trump’s divisive remarks about immigrants, Muslims and other ethnic groups. A note atop the Gideon Bible in every guest room states that Qurans and other holy books are available upon request, a standard amenity at luxury hotels.

Trump supporter Brenda Dunaway, at the 263-room hotel with friends for lunch Wednesday, stood in the lobby beneath chandeliers and a soaring glass roof and gave her approval. “It’s beautiful and tastefully done,” she said.

“I hope it’s a big success.”

Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric led two celebrity chefs, Jose Andres and Geoffrey Zakarian, to back out of running restaurants in the hotel, but David Burke’s Prime BLT is open in the lobby. Burke was on hand Tuesday night to chat with diners. No second restaurant has been announced.

The five-star Trump

International Hotel is located in an 1899 landmark, the Old Post Office, which was in disrepair when the Trump Organization won a bid from the federal government to turn it into a hotel in 2013.

Nina Gardner, a consultant who lives in the area, decided to attend the protest when she heard about it Wednesday morning.

“I’m totally against Donald Trump and his candidacy,” she said.

She has friends who are boycotting Ivanka Trump’s clothing and jewelry line, and she predicted his campaign would “end up hurting his business.”

Rates at Trump hotels have been falling and some residents of a Trump apartment building in New York are trying to have the name removed. But Ivanka Trump insisted all was well as she stood by her father’s side Wednesday: “Our business at Trump Hotels continues to thrive.”

Rates start around $400 most nights but cheapest rooms were over $600 for the night before Trump’s visit.

Few stories in the Bible are better known, better loved, or more often told than that recorded in I Samuel 17; the story of David and Goliath. It is the story of a Hebrew lad sent to the site where the nation of Israel is set in array against the Philistine army. As the story unfolds, Goliath comes out on a daily basis to “defy the armies of the living God” (verse 26) David is not shaken or intimidated by the mountain of a man, but using very simple weapons coupled with faith in God, brings Goliath down, and the army of God is able to drive away the Philistines for a time.

In the story there are some inspiring parallels for today, for those who have “giants” in their life that need to be defeated. First consider what we will call “The Goliath Factor”. This man was possibly more than nine feet tall, carried as much as two hundred pounds of armor, which may or may not have included the twenty five pond spearhead on the end of a staff that was like a weaver’s beam, and a separate individual whose sole responsibility seems to have been that of carrying his shield. (verses 4-7) The text says: “When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.” (verse 11) Verse twenty four says “And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.”

This is often our response to the many things that challenge our faith in God, to the temptations that paralyze our strength, and our fervor for righteous pursuits. We must CONFRONT our weaknesses and fears, regardless of their size and strength, as David confronted Goliath.

What is troubling you? What is the “Goliath” in your life you need to bring down? Don’t be intimidated, there is help. Be willing to stand “toe to toe” with Satan and his angels, and all the weapons he has in his very well-stocked and diverse arsenal. Paul warned: “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us, for we are not ignorant of his devices.” (2 Corinthians 2:11) (More next week) We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Little's Jewelry has a new home in a renovated building on Harper Road. See the story coming on Sunday's Business page.

Learning disability could be root of dropout’s problems D E A R ABBY: I’m 18 and a freshman in college.

M y 16-year-old brother is supposed to be a junior in high school, but he’s still taking freshman

ing freshman classes, he belongs back in school.

He may be lazy, but he may also have learning disabilities.

If he doesn’t get the help he needs to earn a diploma, he’ll be virtually unemployable by the time he’s 18.

Your mother should visit his school and talk to his teachers and the principal about this.

As it stands, your brother may be considered “truant,” which is against the law.

classes.

He has gone to school maybe twice this year.

He just gave up and dropped out.

All he does is stay home, sleep and text all day.

It makes me angry because I don’t work right now, but I clean, cook, do laundry and take care of my younger siblings while he does absolutely nothing.

Mom has given up on him.

She begs him to go to school and get an education, but he yells at her and tells her he doesn’t care and he’ll just become a hobo.

I don’t know what to say to him to get it through his head that he needs to finish high school. What would you do? -BIG SISTER IN NEW YORK DEAR BIG SISTER: If your brother is a junior and still tak-

DEAR ABBY: I am 47 years old and date younger, usually very attractive women.

I live in New York City, so they tend to be models.

I haven’t been married because I feel like I haven’t met “the one.”

I have been with one or two women who could have been the one, only to find out my feelings weren’t reciprocated.

But more often I don’t feel an emotional/intellectual connection, so I end the relationship.

While I might be able to resolve that issue by dating women in their late 30s and 40s, I’m more physically attracted to younger women.

Because I don’t look my age, I have yet to reach the point where I look “too old” for women in their 20s to be attracted.

Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby

Do I continue to follow my male instincts and date younger women, or should I date women closer to my age to whom I may not be as physically attracted, knowing there’s still no guarantee I’ll meet someone with whom I’ll find a stronger connection? -- LIKES ‘EM YOUNGER DEAR LIKES: Forgive me for answering your question with a question, but what do you really want in a relationship?

The problem with youth is that it doesn’t last.

As the years go by, we get older -- if we’re lucky.

That’s why it’s time to start listing your priorities, with the help of a licensed mental health professional, if necessary.

(There are many well-qualified ones in your city.)

I urge you to do it soon, before you start looking like your date’s rich uncle.

While marriage may not be for everyone, it’s a known fact that married men live longer.

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).

You may sincerely know you are right, but that is not the point. Being right doesn’t automatically protect you. You still need to prepare yourself for possible opposition and other incidents that could happen.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Maybe it’s too early for a rest from commerce and travel and business of all kinds, but it’s not too early to plan one and prepare for it. The dormant periods are important to your well-being. How are you going to make it happen?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Just because you passed this way before does not mean that you are regressing. Think of this as running laps. Each repetition makes you stronger, helps you grow faster and counts toward your general progress.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The visiting will be better when you use the time between visits to better yourself. That’s the time you practice, hone your skills and fine-tune your image.

Challenge yourself to show up

even stronger next time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Right now the fruit of your labor is a lot like a watched pot. It will seem not to ripen while your eyeballs are on it. Back off. Let time and the sun do their job while you plant elsewhere.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Men have gone mad from anticipating what stays out of reach for too long. Perhaps it takes a bit of madness to keep going past a certain point. Is it really worth it? Much depends on how much you value the prize.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

There’s humor in the situation.

In order to see it, though, one would have to have the funny kind of mind that needs the laughter, looks for it, finds it and is released by it. That’s you!

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Groups and crowds are not the same thing. The few behave differently than the many, and different rules apply for managing them. And yet, what you get right on the small scale today will definitely work when you scale it up.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The small rubs of life can be more detrimental to your happiness, health and well-being than big events. Coping is a lifestyle issue. Build a reliable set of go-to strategies for dealing with daily stresses.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you don’t lunge for the brass ring, no one will know you want it. But if you lunge for it too hard, you’ll throw yourself off balance and fall. Core strength is needed here for a graceful, controlled grab.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). An emotional weather front may seem like an uncontrollable natural force -- nope! It’s the air currents that carry the weather.

You’re an air sign. Blow a little and the storm moves away.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

There’s no such thing as a pattern of one. The first time something happens it is difficult, if not impossible, for you to see that it is part of a cycle. The second time brings awareness, new questions, and the comfort of repetition.

Storing value?

Whether it’s a new job, divorce or going to college, life has a way of making extra storage space a necessity.

Those life transitions help keep self-storage buildings full and rents going up. Among the biggest landlords of self-storage space are publicly traded real estate investment trusts, or REITs. Investors flocked to these REITs in recent years as demand for storage space surged, ed, exceeding supply, said Brad Schwer, equity analyst at Morningstar.

Shares in the two largest – Public Storage and Extra Space Storage – notched big gains until this year. Both are down nearly 15 percent so far, part of a broader slide in self-storage REITs. The sector posted a negative annual return of 8.3 percent through

Public Storage (PSA) The largest provider of selfstorage space in the U.S. Public Storage owns and operates about 2,300 self-storage facilities in 38 states. Schwer has Public Storage rated at four stars with a fair value estimate of $226 a share.

Wednesday’s close: $213.28 $247.70

Extra Space Storage (EXR) Owner and manager of roughly 1,400 self-storage facilities in 36 states. Schwer has Extra Space Storage rated at three stars with a fair value estimate of $85 a share.

Holiday season brings weight concerns WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: The holidays are coming, and I’m feeling anxious already.

Most of the events with my family will include buffets — which will also include criticism about what I eat, how much I eat and how much I weigh.

I am 5 feet 3 inches tall, and I weigh 115 pounds.

My husband’s family members, with the exception of him, are, by medical definition, morbidly obese.

I am careful about what I eat. I exercise and take care of myself.

So do my husband and our children. I have never and would never comment on what his family members eat or their weight.

Why is it acceptable for them to comment on me?

I’ll hear, “You don’t eat enough.” “Is that all you’re taking?” “You’re too skinny.”

All comments are said loud enough for all to hear and with a snide tone.

Do I continue to smile and be silent?

Is there something I should say in return? This has been going on for 29 years. — Sad About the Holidays Dear Sad: If one of your in-laws had a genuine worry about your weight and health, there would be a time and a place to talk to you about it, and it definitely

Dear Annie wouldn’t be at the family holiday buffet, after a few glasses of wine, in front of every cousin, niece and nephew.

It sounds as if they’re speaking more from a place of insecurity than concern.

That said, I doubt they have any idea that their comments are rude.

Because thinness is idealized in our society, many people mistakenly think it’s OK to pick on a person for being skinny, even if they would never pick on someone for being heavy.

Talk to your husband about how these comments bother you.

Perhaps he can persuade them to cut it out.

And if they continue with their remarks anyway, try not to let it eat at you.

What matters is that you’re healthy, and that’s something only you and your doctor can determine.

Dear Annie: I totally recognized my daughter’s experience after she gave

birth to my grandson in your recent column about postpartum depression.

It was heartbreaking.

Your identification of it and your recommendations were spot on, but it concerns me that you did not include medication as an option, as well.

Perhaps you quite correctly assumed the therapist would prescribe an appropriate medication, but you missed an opportunity to inform the public that additional help in the form of medication is out there for many.

In my daughter’s case, the proper medication was what finally enabled her to break free and begin the path to regaining her old self and enjoying her son.

It took her eight months to realize medication was what she needed.

She looks back now and wishes she did not wait so long.

Thank you for bringing attention to the all-toocommon issue of postpartum depression.

Too many people write it off as baby blues and don’t seek out help.

I’m happy to say my daughter is back to her old self, while still on medication, and my grandson is now 8 years old, the joy of our lives.

Pick With Kent: Week 7 I really enjoy this time of year.

There’s so much going on in the sports world that it causes your head to spin if you’re not careful. You have football, basketball, baseball and Kent soccer. Did I Mohundro leave anything out?

Sports Editor But with all these sports happening at once, our goal here is to attempt and pick the winners of six upcoming football games and see how things roll.

I just had another breakeven week, which would have been one game better had I followed through on my hunch to pick Penn State to beat Ohio State.

I guess I’m a little gun-shy about picking upsets, because most of the time I do pick one it usually doesn’t happen. In my defense, I did tell you here last week that the Nittany Lions could win and that the Buckeyes

had better bring their “A” game if they had intentions of staying unbeaten.

That turned out to be true.

Well, that game is behind us now. Let’s move on to this week and see what’s in store: Auburn @ Ole Miss The Rebels once-promising season, that started to unravel with that opening loss to Florida State, is in need of a quick-fix.

I just don’t feel like coach Hugh Freeze and his staff can stop the bleeding in just one game — especially in a tricky one this week against a Tigers team that is red hot and coming off a 53-point beat-down of Arkansas.

Ole Miss won at Auburn last year in a rainy day contest, and don’t think the No. 15 Tigers have forgotten.

In fact, they appear to look similar to a division contender.

The Rebels have fallen completely out of the polls and may not be back for a while. As it stands, they still need three wins in their final five games to even be-

come bowl eligible.

Who thought that would be a problem for Ole Miss when the season began with them listed among the top 10 teams in the nation.

The Rebel defense has as many holes as a piece of Swiss cheese and the offense has looked sluggish the past couple of weeks.

I hate to say it but...

Kent’s Pick: Auburn Florida @ Georgia The world’s largest outdoor cocktail party is here again and this year the odds favor the Gators.

UF is an early eight-point favorite to win and stay in contention for the Eastern Division crown, but the Bulldogs will have something to say about that before the clock strikes all zeroes.

Freshman QB Jacob Eason has been thrown to the wolves this season and is learning on the fly.

The Gators have the better defense and offense, but so did Ohio State when they went to Happy Valley last week and lost to Penn State.

I have a strong suspicion that this game will be closer than we think...or it could be a blowout.

Kent’s pick: Florida Clemson @ Florida State Oh, what could have been.

When the season started, this game set up to be a possible top 5 matchup, but the Seminoles fell from grace early.

The Tigers were somewhat unimpressive in early victories against lesser opponents and should have lost to North Carolina State two weeks ago, if not for an errant field goal attempt as the game ended.

Of course, the game being in Tallahassee will benefit FSU, but how long will they be able to hold off the powerful offense of Clemson.

Oh, and that Tigers’ defense is pretty good too.

What do you think? I tell you what I think...I really don’t know. I’m going with...

Wildcats seek eighth win tomorrow Walnut head coach John Meeks, Mississippi State commit Monterio Hunt and the Wildcats will be looking to pick up win No. 8 tomorrow night as they close out the regular season at home against East Union. WHS secures second place in Division 1-2A, and a first-round home playoff game, with a victory.

No. 15 Auburn on a tear since early struggles The Associated Press

AUBURN, Ala.— The Auburn Tigers have emerged as one of the Southeastern Conference’s hottest teams with a devastating running game and a defense that has been among the league’s best.

The 15th-ranked Tigers have won four straight games since a 1-2 start when the season appeared on the brink. A team that only scored three touchdowns against its first three Power 5 conference opponents

made a huge statement last Saturday with a 56-3 stampede of then-No. 17 Arkansas that followed a 24-point victory over Mississippi State.

The Tigers (5-2, 3-1 SEC) have emerged from two seasons of mediocrity following the 2013 league championship run. Their confidence is certainly flying high going into Saturday night’s game at Mississippi (3-4, 1-3).

“Any time you play well, you’re confident,” Auburn

coach Gus Malzahn said Tuesday. “You’ve got to be confident. You’ve got to be mentally tough. You’ve got to be confident but at the same time you’ve got to keep working.

You’ve got to keep the same mentality each week.

“It doesn’t matter what happens. You’ve got to have the same mentality to keep improving. You can’t pat yourself on the back, not in this league.”

Lofty perches do tend to be precarious in the SEC West,

where the Razorbacks and Rebels have both tumbled from the rankings. But Auburn’s win over Arkansas was the most lopsided defeat of any Top 25 team this season, and the 543 rushing yards was a record for a regular-season SEC game.

The Tigers were one play away from being 1-3 but escaped with an 18-13, touchdown-free win over No. 19 LSU, which didn’t get off its Please see AUBURN | 11

College Picks: Ohio State rooting for Michigan The Associated Press

Ohio State fans need to root for Michigan. Seriously.

The Buckeyes’ loss last Saturday to Penn State has created this somewhat uncomfortable situation, where their fans have to pull for their hated rival. Here’s why: The sixth-ranked Buckeyes can win a three-way tiebreaker in the Big Ten East among themselves, Michigan and Penn State if all finish 8-1 in the conference, which would mean the Buckeyes beating the Wolverines in the regularseason finale.

If Michigan were to lose before Nov. 26, Ohio State would need another Penn State loss to win the division and move on to play for the Big Ten title with an 8-1 record.

Of course, the Buckeyes still need to take care of their own business, and that starts Saturday at home against Northwestern. As for No. 2 Michigan, a short road trip to Michigan State is up next.

The Spartans have owned the rivalry lately, but they also currently own a five-game losing streak.

Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio built a Big Ten power on a foundation of victories against Michigan. Seven in the last eight meetings to be exact. The Spartans have also won two of the last three Big ten titles, beating Ohio State along the way each time.

It is a long shot, but nothing would be more Michigan State than beating Michigan and in the process helping to eliminate Ohio State.

The Hokies would be tough to catch in the ACC Coastal with victories against North Carolina, Miami and Pitt ...

Mississippi Prep Polls

CONTINUED FROM 10

This is a rematch of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NFC title game that the Panthers won to get to the Super Bowl.

The game is being played on Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home turf, which in and of itself would normally be a huge factor. But the Panthers have had an extremely disappointing season, winning only one game so far.

Oh...and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget all the injuries, especially to Cam the magnificent.

If you watched last Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bore-a-thon tie between the Cardinals and Seahawks, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotta be thinking, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the explosive Arizona oďŹ&#x20AC;ense everyone was talking about when the season started?â&#x20AC;? I wonder about that myself.

I have a hard time believing either one of these teams is as poor as what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve shown in the first six weeks. Both squads were early favorites to play for another Super Bowl trip.

You know something?

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m flipping a coin to pick the winner. Heads Carolina, tails Arizona (sounds eerily similar to that country song)...

Kentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pick: Carolina Philadelphia @ Dallas This game should be coined â&#x20AC;&#x153;the battle of the rookie quarterbacks.â&#x20AC;?

Although Tony Romo has been throwing some in practice this week, former Mississippi State star Dak Prescott will likely start and could lead the Cowboys to their first 6-1 start in a few years.

But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discount the Eagles, who just handed the Minnesota Vikings their first loss of the year in a game that was decided early.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just something about playing

at Jerryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World that brings out the best in Dallas.

Philadelphia did win the game over the Vikings, but take a look at the stats: they were outgained 282-239, and Carson Wentz had his worst day so far as a pro with a pair of interceptions and a season-low 52.4 QB rating.

The Cowboys are coming oďŹ&#x20AC; a bye week and look to add to their impressive start with another win.

Kentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pick: Dallas New England @ Buffalo Why does Rex Ryan make it so hard on the media to get a gauge on how his team will fare from week-to-week?

The Bills had easily won four in a row a couple of weeks ago and â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in a twist of fate â&#x20AC;&#x201D; then turned around and lost to the Dolphins.

And these arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Dan Marinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dolphins.

The Patriots are just doing what they do: win. Maybe theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not as impressive or dominant as they were in their near-perfect Super Bowl year back in 2008, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still the odds-on favorite now to win the AFC title.

My heart tells me that, being at home against their bitter rivals from the East, the Bills might just conjour up a special formula that would allow them to pull this game out of the hat.

New England wants payback for their only loss this year back in week three, and I believe they get it.

Kentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pick: New England Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going into this week with a 21-14 overall record, so I need all the wins I can get. How about you?

Good luck again this week as you try and pick the winners.

AUBURN CONTINUED FROM 10

final throw into the end zone in time. Auburn has been rolling along since.

Rebounding strong from a 7-6 season would be typical of Auburnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent history. The runs to the national championship game in 2010 and 2013 followed seasons of 8-5 and 3-9.

The Tigers have produced three of the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top 10 performances in total oďŹ&#x20AC;enses: 706 yards against Arkansas State, 688 against Louisiana-Monroe and most impressively 632 against Arkansas. The latter two have come since that LSU win.

A player who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have

a carry in his career, or play in the opening game, now leads the SEC in rushing yards per game. Kamryn Pettway is averaging 116.2 yards on the season and racked up 361 yards in the past two games.

Auburn also leads the SEC in scoring defense, giving up 14.8 points per game. The Tigers held Arkansas to 215 total yards, including 25 on the ground.

Rebels coach Hugh Freeze says Auburn has an elite defense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Only giving up 14 points a game is unheard of almost these days,â&#x20AC;?

Freeze said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You watch them on tape and you see why.â&#x20AC;?

Three of MSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ nal ďŹ ve games are against Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State.

PRIME TIME PLAYERS Two weeks ago, Joe Williams was retired from football. Last week, he returned to the Utah team and rushed for 179 yards in a win in at Oregon State. Then, on Saturday, he broke a single-game school record by running for 332 yards and four touchdowns to lead the Utes to a pivotal Pac-12 South win over UCLA. â&#x20AC;Ś Lamar Jackson and the Louisville offense bounced back from a relatively slug-

gish performance in a win vs. Duke with a dominating effort against NC State. Jackson threw for 355 yards with three TDs and no interceptions and added 76 yards rushing to key the Cardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 54â&#x20AC;&#x201C;13 win. â&#x20AC;Ś Jeremy McNichols rushed for 140 yards and one touchdown on 30 carries and caught ďŹ ve passes for 109 yards and one score to help Boise State top BYU 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;27 on Friday night. McNichols is

the ďŹ fth player in the FBS ranks in 2016 with more than 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game. â&#x20AC;Ś Oklahoma quarterback Baker MayďŹ eld threw for 545 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions, and Sooner tailback Joe Mixon rushed for 263 yards and two scores as OU rolled up 854 yards of offense in its 66â&#x20AC;&#x201C;59 win at Texas Tech. â&#x20AC;Ś Will Worth, who began the season as the backup

quarterback, rushed for 201 yards and three TDs in Navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 42â&#x20AC;&#x201C;28 win over Memphis in a key AAC West showdown. â&#x20AC;Ś Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tavius Mathers, a transfer from Ole Miss, rushed for 215 yards on 28 carries to help Middle Tennessee knock off Missouri 51â&#x20AC;&#x201C;45 in Columbia. â&#x20AC;Ś Syracuse QB Eric Dungey threw for 434 yards and added 54 yards on the ground to lead the Orange to a 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;20 win at Boston College.

3. UCLA The pick by many outlets â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including Athlon Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to win the Pac-12 South title, UCLA is 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4 in the league after losing at home to Utah on Saturday night. Josh Rosen, one of the most talented quarterbacks in the nation, has missed the last two games with an injury.

4. Stanford The Cardinal, 4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 overall and 2â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 in the Pac-12, have been undone by an offense that ranks last in the league in yardage (299.1 ypg) and scoring (17.0 ppg). Christian McCaffrey rushed for an average of 145.3 yards in Stanfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst three games but has been limited to 49, 35 and 92 yards in his last three.

5. Oregon Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a huge surprise that Oregon is not in the hunt for the Pac-12 North title. Still, few expected the Ducks to be 0â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4 in the league, with three of the losses to Colorado, Washington State and California.

Oregon has given up at least 50 points in each of its last three games.

NUMBERS TO KNOW All three of the FBS programs in the of Oklahoma â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oklahoma, 5-2 state Oklahoma State and Tulsa â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 through seven games. Both of Oklahomaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Tulsaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s losses have come against Houston and Ohio State.

Leonard Fournette rushed for 284 and three touchdowns on 17.8 yards only 16 carries â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for a nifty 17.8-yard average â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in his ďŹ rst game since late September.

0

Rice defeated Prairie View A&M 66â&#x20AC;&#x201C;45 to record its ďŹ rst win of the 2016 season. There are now zero teams without a win.

854

Oklahoma and Texas Tech set a new FBS record for total yards in a game (1,708). Both teams had 854 yards of offense.

STOCK REPORT Auburn won its fourth straight game, rolling to a surprisingly easy 56â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 victory over Arkansas on the strength of a dominating rushing performance. The Tigers ran for 543 yards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the most ever by a team in an SEC game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and held Arkansas to 25 rushing yards on 31 attempts. Auburn is 3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1 in the SEC.

Houston emerged as a candidate to reach the College Football Playoff after opening the season with a win over Oklahoma. Now, almost two months later, the Cougars are an afterthought on the national scene.

Tom Hermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team has lost two of its last three games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 46â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30 at Navy and 38â&#x20AC;&#x201C;16 at SMU.

James Franklin recorded by far the most signiďŹ cant win in his two-plus seasons at Penn State as the Nittany Lions rallied from a 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7 deďŹ cit in the fourth quarter to stun previously unbeaten Ohio State 24â&#x20AC;&#x201C;21 on a â&#x20AC;&#x153;white outâ&#x20AC;? night at Beaver Stadium. Penn State is 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;2 overall and likely will be favored in each of its ďŹ nal ďŹ ve games.

Texas lost for the third time in the last four games, dropping a 24â&#x20AC;&#x201C;21 decision at Kansas State.

The Longhorns are now 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3 in the Big 12 in 2016 and 10â&#x20AC;&#x201C;12 in Charlie Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-plus seasons as the head coach. Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenuous job status will be a major storyline in the ďŹ nal month of the regular season.

50

Bowling Green has given up 50 TDs through eight games and ranks last in the nation in scoring defense (45.1 ppg). The Falcons gave up 50 TDs last season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in 14 games.

WGCs up for grabs with Woods no longer in picture The Associated Press

SHANGHAI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dustin Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victory in the most recent World Golf Championship at Firestone this summer means he has to capture only the Dell Match Play to become the first player to sweep the four world events.

For Rory McIlroy, the HSBC Champions that starts today is the last chance to make it three straight years with a WGC title.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all quite impressive until compared with Tiger Woods. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know Tiger has won like 18 of these things, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure,â&#x20AC;?

McIlroy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Second place is probably down around three or four.â&#x20AC;?

McIlroy has a keen sense of

history, even when it comes to a series that by golf standards is still relatively new. Woods won a WGC title 18 times in a span of 15 years. Johnson and GeoďŹ&#x20AC; Ogilvy are next in line with three.

In some respects, the World Golf Championships can be barometer for the world of golf.

During the height of his career, Woods had no peer. He won a majority of the WGCs at a time when he was ruling golf.

Now, they seem to be spread out among top players. Johnson has three. McIlroy and Jason Day have two apiece. Henrik Stenson, Phil Mickelson, Darren Clarke, Adam Scott and Ernie Els also have two. Martin Kaymer, Bubba Watson and Justin Rose are

among major champions who also have a WGC title.

Golf is loaded with great players, just none that stands out so much clearly over anyone else. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I guess it is a reflection of where we are,â&#x20AC;? McIlroy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Someone like Tiger comes around, if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not once-in-a-lifetime, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s once-in-a-generation. I think with technology and with the knowledge thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the game nowadays with the coaching, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harder and harder to separate yourself from the rest of the pack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And someone like me sitting here, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m saying that sort of grudgingly because I would have loved to be on the other side of that, where there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so much parity,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it seems like

anyone that tees it up has a great chance to win. Overall for golf, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a bad thing.â&#x20AC;?

The theory that anyone can win on any given week was illustrated last year at Sheshan International.

Russell Knox was the last one to get into the field at the HSBC Champions and produced his first PGA Tour victory, holding oďŹ&#x20AC; Johnson and Kevin Kisner.

Knox went on to win again at the Travelers Championships, had three runner-up finishes and now is No. 20 in the world.

The HSBC Champions this year has its strongest field ever, even with a few top players taking time oďŹ&#x20AC; to rest (Jordan Spieth and Mickelson) or letting in-

juries heal (Day and Rose). It has 40 of the top 50 in the world on a course that has been drenched with rain over the last week.

Woods never won this WGC, though he had only two chances until he stopped playing because of injury or other priorities.

McIlroy introduced an interesting theory on why Woods won 41 percent of the time in the WGCs, nearly 50 percent in stroke play. There is no cut, no stress, and players know they have four rounds to work their way into position.

As his answer was being translated into Chinese, McIlroy said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Can I just add one more thing to why he won so many? Because he was the best.â&#x20AC;?

STARS OF THE WEEK DE Jonathan Allen, Alabama: Had six tackles, a sack and a fumble return for a TD in win over Texas A&M. TB Leonard Fournette, Louisiana State: Rushed 16 times for 284 yards and three TDs as the Tigers steamrolled Mississippi 38-21.

STAT OF THE WEEK

543 Rushing yards for Auburn in its 56-3 demolition of Arkansas, a record for a regular-season SEC league game.

Arkansas held the previous record with 542 yards against South Carolina in 2007.

POWER RANKINGS

Tigers put SEC on high alert with trouncing of Razorbacks

Auburn running back Kam Martin breaks free for a touchdown as Arkansas defensive lineman JaMichael Winston pursues during the second half Oct. 22 in Auburn, Ala. The Tigers won 56-3. BUTCH DILL/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Keys for Auburn FOLLOW LSU’S EXAMPLE: Louisiana State didn’t do anything fancy last week against Mississippi. It just kept handing the ball off and ran roughshod over a poor defense. Auburn had no trouble crushing Arkansas with a potent rushing attack that is now averaging more than 300 yards per game, and it’s safe to expect the Tigers to give the Rebels a heavy dose of Kamryn Pettway. The tailback had 27 carries last week and could see more at Ole Miss.

BADGER KELLY: Auburn beat Arkansas 56-3, and much of the attention was rightfully placed on a potent rushing attack. But the Tigers had four sacks and 11 tackles for loss in just 64 defensive snaps against the Razorbacks, and their defense has quietly risen to third nationally in scoring defense and 18th in total

yardage allowed. Disrupting Mississippi QB Chad Kelly is well within this unit’s abilities.

Keys for Mississippi STOP THE RUN: It’s the story of this game. Auburn just swamped Arkansas for 543 rushing yards last week, and Mississippi was flattened by Leonard Fournette and Louisiana State in Death Valley on Saturday. Auburn ranks third in the country in rushing, and Mississippi checks in at 113th nationally against the run. There’s an obvious path to victory for Auburn, and the Rebels must figure out how to deny the Tigers on the ground.

EXTEND SOME POSSESSIONS: There comes a point where a team’s offensive identity — especially an identity predicated on going as fast as possible in the hopes of wearing out opponents — must yield to the realities facing

the other side of the ball. The Rebels haven’t stopped good offenses all season, and Auburn certainly qualifies as one. Mississippi is next-to-last nationally in time of possession, and an unproductive defense isn’t getting better by being overexposed.

Prediction AUBURN 31-20: If it wasn’t obvious before its trip to Baton Rouge, Mississippi is in the midst of a lost season. At the same time, Auburn has played quite well during its four-game winning streak. It has the running game to exploit the same weakness Louisiana State did last week, and it is facing a Rebels bunch that has reason to be demoralized.

Auburn probably won’t play as well as it did against Arkansas, but it should prove to be better than Ole Miss this week.

When: Noon EDT Saturday Where: Faurot Field, Columbia, Mo. TV: SEC Network Notes: Kentucky brings a two-game winning streak into this matchup after fending off Mississippi State with a field goal as time expired last week. Kentucky rolled up 554 yards of offense in the triumph, with QB Stephen Johnson Johnson (17 of 32, 292 yards, two TDs), TB Benny Snell (19 rushes, 128 yards, 1 TD) and WR Jeff Badet (seven catches, 139 yards, 2 TDs) enjoying fine nights. The Wildcats haven’t won three SEC games in a row since 2006, but there’s a real chance that streak ends this week against the reeling Tigers. Missouri is coming off a sloppy 51-45 loss to Middle Tennessee, the most points the program has allowed in a nonconference home game since Iowa Navy Pre-Flight earned a 51-7 victory in 1944.

When: 3:30 p.m. EDT Saturday Where: EverBank Field, Jacksonville, Fla. TV: CBS Notes: Both teams come off an open date as they head to the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. The Gators have won two in a row, including a 40-14 rout of Missouri on Oct. 15 in QB Luke Del Rio’s return from injury.

Things have been Michel tougher for Georgia, which has dropped three of four and is coming off a surprising 17-16 loss to Vanderbilt that saw TBs Nick Chubb and Sony Michel combined for just 68 yards on 29 carries. They’ll need to be more effective this week, especially as freshman QB Jacob Eason faces arguably his stiffest challenge of the season. The Gators lead the country in pass efficiency defense and are yielding just 132.8 yards per game through the air.

Florida has won back-to-back meetings against the Bulldogs.

When: 7:15 p.m. EDT Saturday Where: Williams-Brice Stadium, Columbia, S.C. TV: ESPN2 Notes: The Volunteers dropped back-to-back games against Texas A&M and Alabama entering their bye week, but remain a viable contender in the SEC East race.

The Volunteers’ last five regular-season Dobbs opponents have a combined record of 16-21, and just one (Kentucky) enters this week with a winning record. Needless to say, it’s a manageable stretch for QB Joshua Dobbs and his teammates, who have dealt with plenty of injuries during an arduous first half of the schedule. South Carolina was coming off its open date last week and dispatched Massachusetts 34-28 behind true freshman QB Jake Bentley, who had not played in the Gamecocks’ first six games.
