The Ole Miss dugout reacts as TCU scores another run in the sixth inning during the NCAA college baseball tournament regional championship game on Monday, June 4, at Blue Bell Park in College Station, Texas.
BY DAVID COLLIER dlcollie@go.olemiss.edu
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Ole Miss struggled a lot this season, and most of those struggles came from a lack of scoring runs. The Rebels answered those prob-
lems Friday and Saturday, with wins over TCU and Texas A&M, to advance to the Regional Championship of the College Station Regional. However, they went back to their old ways as TCU (4020) came through the loser’s
bracket to defeat the Rebels on Sunday and again on Monday night, by the score of 7-3, in front of a crowd of 3,579 at Blue Bell Park to end the Rebels’ season. “As a coach, you’re never prepared for this moment,” head coach Mike Bianco
said. “Specifically about the ball game, they just played better than we did. We showed a lot of guts. Bobby (Wahl) and Mike (Mayers) on very short rest came out and pitched their hearts out. “But TCU was just a better club today and yesterday.
They came out after losing the first day, and I would say found themselves, especially offensively.” For the second straight night, Ole Miss (37-26) got on the board in the first with See BASEBALL, PAGE 7
BancorpSouth scam targets customers
Professor receives Fulbright grant
BarncorpSouth cardholders throughout the State are subject to identity theft and scams.
Professor Laura Johnson returns to her quest in East Africa.
BY ADAM GANUCHEAU aganucheau24@gmail.com
Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood issued a scam warning, urging bankers associated with BancorpSouth to be wary of fraudulent activity. Many Mississippi residents have received a phone call on either their home or cell phone informing them of a supposed problem with their BancorpSouth card, according to the Attorney General’s press release. The fraudulent activity has occurred in the Oxford area, as well as throughout the rest of the state, according to the Attorney General’s office. The caller may be live or automated, but usually leaves a request for the victim to call a number or visit a website and leave their 16-digit card number and other important information that could be used
to empty the victim’s bank account or open new credit cards in the victim’s name. Some victims are asked to text their BancorpSouth bank account number to a phone number or to email it to any number of email addresses. “Legitimate officials do not need to ask you to verify your bank account information,” Hood said. “They already have it. The key point is to never, ever give your personal identification information over the phone to someone whose identity you cannot verify.” Many Ole Miss students and other people in the Oxford area have been contacted by the fraudulent numbers. “I received two separate text messages from a number claiming to be BancorpSouth saying that my debit card had been suspended,” journalism junior Courtney Hudspeth
said. Fortunately, Hudspeth heard about the scam and did not give away any information. Hudspeth called the BancorpSouth Call Center, and they confirmed that her situation was the scam. The majority of calls and text messages occurred over the recent holiday weekend, but some potential victims are just now checking their messages and responding to the scam. BancorpSouth officials said they are working to close down websites and phone numbers connected to the scam as they become aware of them. BancorpSouth officials updated the “phishing” page of the bank’s Website to read: “BancorpSouth will never ask for personal or account information by email or solicit ac-

Is austerity the best policy?

PATRICIA THOMPSON director and faculty adviser
Enough is enough. It is time for conservatives in Europe and the United States to face the facts. Austerity is a failed idea. It was announced this past week that the U.K. has slipped back into a recession. First-quarter 2012 growth was negative. A recession in the midst of a recovery from a recession is known as a double-dip recession. It was also announced this past week that Spain has slipped into its second recession in three years. These are both largely the result of a resurgence of fiscally conservative politics that has gained much

momentum in recent years, both in Europe and in the United States. The basic idea behind austerity is this: Cut government spending. Is the economy doing well? Cut government spending. Is the economy sputtering? Cut government spending. This short-sighted policy has created a crisis for the Eurozone and now has hurt the U.K. as well. Why has austerity been so widely supported then? From an economic perspective, it makes little sense. It is as though Keynesian economics has been entirely disregarded. The argument made by countries like Germany and the U.K. (specifically Prime Minister David Cameron’s Conservative Party) is basically to ignore what had become generally accepted by many economists since World War I. However, in the latter half of the century,

the world view has slowly shifted away from Keynesian ideas toward modern austerity. Their argument was that cutting government spending would lead to growth in the private sector which would outweigh the cuts of their substantial welfare state. There has rarely, if ever, been any historical evidence of this being true, and now there is evidence that their ideas were incorrect. Even still, in recent years conservative Americans have become obsessed with cutting the United State’s budget deficit. Rather than focusing on sensible policies that can stabilize our debt and reduce our deficit in the long term, they have committed themselves to the swiftest answers possible. Tea Party Republicans want to cut as much federal spending as quickly as possible, using the hatchet rather than the scalpel. Un-

less the United States wants to follow in Europe’s footsteps and hurt our economy further, our country must learn from others’ mistakes. As young people, we already face astoundingly high unemployment rates. Over half of college graduates under 25 are either unemployed or underemployed. A strong economy is what we want and need when we graduate. Policies that will cut spending blindly, rather than closely examining the budget and finding what can be cut, are detrimental to the economy and are the last thing we want as students. We must urge our leaders, both locally and nationally, to do what is best for us. Austerity is not the answer. Jay Nogami is a public policy leadership sophomore from Denver, Colo.

Blessing born from burden
COURTESY CAITLIN ADAMS
Chi Omega Tau, along with the Make-A-Wish foundation, grants local cancer-survivor, Erica Yeager’s wish. BY EVERETT BEXLEY elbexley@olemiss.edu
Meet 17-year-old Erica Yeager, a self-described country girl from Waterford who enjoys fishing, riding four-wheelers and spending time with her family. In October 2010, she was diagnosed with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria or PHN, a life-threatening blood disease known to lead to leukemia. Fast forward to today — after multiple rounds of chemotherapy and a grueling bone marrow transplant — doctors have now proclaimed Yeager a healthy teenager. After conquering a rare disease and completing a full year of recovery, how will she celebrate? With a trip to Disney World, of course! Thanks to the Chi Omega Tau Chapter of Ole Miss and Make-A-Wish Foundation Mid-South, Yeager, her sister and her parents will depart on July 2 for a week-long, all-expenses-paid trip to the land of roller coasters, castles and cotton candy. She said she could
not be more excited. “My sister Leslie and I have always dreamed of going to Disney World,” said Yeager, an upcoming high school junior. “I just never imagined it would actually happen.” Such disbelief was surprising, considering the teenager’s “anything is possible” attitude. Even on the day she heard her diagnosis, Yeager remained the embodiment of calm resilience, as Yeager’s mother, Cheryl, pointed out. “For a while, we were told Erica just had anemia,” Cheryl said. “But after five visits to the doctor, they realized it was much more serious. I remember rushing into her school (Potts Camp High School in Marshall County) and pulling her out of class. I told her the doctors had found something in her blood and that it didn’t look good.” But Yeager didn’t let the news get her down. “Erica simply looked at me and said, ‘God has had me in his hands for 15 years. He’s going to keep me safe,’” Cheryl said. “Later that night, she went to her beauty review
with a smile on her face.” Yeager credited faith and family as the forces that helped her push through the illness and maintain a normal life. “I don’t feel like I’ve changed that much,” Erica said. “Sure, I don’t have as much hair and I can’t go swimming, but I’m still the same old Erica.” While the experience did not change Erica, her parents claimed to undergo their own personal transformations. “Before Erica was diagnosed, I thought I was on top of the world,” Eric Yeager, Erica’s father, said. “When the doctor called and broke the news, it floored me. I broke down right there. Ever since that day, I’ve never again taken life for granted.” Erica’s mother expressed the changes she made in her own life. “I used to be a bit of a worrier prior to all this,” Cheryl said. “Now, I don’t let things get to me like they used to. I’ve learned to be strong for my family.” Simms Haguewood, former See WISH, PAGE 4

philanthropy co-chair of the Ole Miss Chi Omega Tau Chapter, helped organize a scavenger hunt around campus for Erica, which included girls dressed as animals, villains and princesses and Chi Omega house boys posing as princes for the day. “When Erica reached her final destination — the Chi Omega house — and we revealed that she’d be going to Disney World, she put her head in a family member’s shoulder and began crying,” said Haguewood, 22, who just graduated from Ole Miss with a degree in elementary education. “I think everyone in the chapter room teared up at that point. “It made me look at myself and say, ‘I haven’t accomplished anything.’ Here is this 17-year-old girl who’s beaten a life-threatening illness. She still wants to go to college to become a nurse and work at St. Jude. It made me want to push harder and use everything God gave me.” Caitlin Adams, also a recent graduate of Ole Miss with a degree in journalism, served as the other philanthropy cochair for Chi Omega and said she too was inspired. “Erica was dealt a really hard hand in life, but she still has an amazing attitude,” Adams said. “We should all stop to realize how fortunate we are.” Haguewood and Adams spoke regularly with Billy Anderson, the volunteer at Make-A-Wish, who helped coordinate Yeager’s case. Anderson, of Olive Branch, expressed how it felt watching everything come together. “I’d interviewed Erica when she was in the hospital; that

was when she mentioned Disney World,” Anderson said. “Then, I was at the Chi-O house (about eight months later) when she was told she’d be able to go. I wish I had it on camera. There must have been 300 girls standing there wearing Disney-themed outfits and singing to her. It’s probably one of the neatest things I’ve seen dealing with a wish,” Anderson said. Disney World was not the only surprise. The Chi Omegas presented the Yeager family with a digital camera and a set of luggage stuffed with candy, magazines and movies. “I couldn’t believe how wonderful those girls were,” Eric said. “Some people say sorority girls are snobs, but I’m a country boy and they couldn’t
have been more kind to my family and me.” Make-A-Wish Foundation is one the Chi Omega Tau Chapter’s two philanthropies, along with the Gardner-Simmons Home in Tupelo for neglected and abused children under the age of 21. Every two years, the Chi Omega Tau Chapter grants one wish to a child facing a life-threatening illness using money the chapter raises. When Erica arrives at Disney World, her sister, Leslie Yeager, will be standing right beside her — appropriate, considering the 10-year-old saved her older sister’s life. On June 28, 2011, Leslie donated the bone marrow necessary for curing her sister’s blood disease.
“The doctors took the bone marrow harvest from Leslie and immediately put her in recovery,” Cheryl said. “Most people are bed-ridden for a couple days after such a procedure, but after two hours Leslie got up and said she wanted to see her sister receive the transplant. “We went to the transplant floor, but the doctors weren’t going to let her enter Erica’s room. Eventually they changed their minds, and Leslie was able to watch Erica receive her bone marrow.” “I was happy I did (the transplant),” Leslie said. “I knew I wouldn’t have my sister if I didn’t.” Erica said she did not take her sister’s sacrifice for granted.
“One of the best parts of this trip to Disney World is knowing my sister is going with me,” Erica said. “It’s kind of like returning the favor.” It turned out Disney World was not the only blessing born from burden. “Erica has earned the respect of a lot of folks,” Cheryl said. “She isn’t afraid to look at people and say: ‘There is nothing you can’t do.’” In a situation where many would be inclined toward selfpity, Yeager said that attitude was never one she would consider. “I never thought, ‘Why me?’” Erica said. “I was put through this for a reason. I’m not here to feel sorry for myself. I wake up every morning and thank God for my life.”

said. “I’m interested in youth’s ability to solve these problems in their environment.” Johnson said she has been working toward this trip for a long time and had to get tenure before she could apply for the grant. She also had to get letters of invitation, so her ties in Tanzania and Uganda proved vital. In 1989, Johnson travelled to Kenya on a Fulbright grant during her junior year at Ole Miss, studying traditional healing techniques for depression. During that trip, she met many colleagues and has nurtured these relationships through study abroad programs. During her nine-month stay, Johnson hopes to establish a connection between her colleagues in Africa and those in
America. “I want to create a pipeline between American psychology and academics and the psychologist academics in Tanzania and Uganda,” she said. “They’re doing excellent work and nobody knows about it because it’s not published in American journals.” Johnson said she is pleased to have her family travelling with her. She plans for her son and daughter to attend the Moshi International School, where they will take courses such as Swahili and French and study with other international students. Her husband will do the driving and handle the logistics of the trip. Although she is traveling to Africa for scholastic purposes, Johnson also has some recreational plans. During the trip, the family will take a safari through the Serengeti Desert, around Lake Victoria and end
in Uganda. Johnson will travel to northern Uganda without her family because the area is prone to violence. “Whereas before I was primarily located around Kampala and Uganda and the capitals, this time I’m really traveling,” she said. “That’s one of the big pieces of the grant, that I’m sampling from several different regions within each country.” In addition to studying how environmental degradation affects the area’s inhabitants, Johnson will work with former child soldiers, focusing on the women who are now mothers. In doing so, she hopes to learn how vulnerable children gauge self-worth and develop purpose. Johnson said she also wants to use this opportunity to teach an environmental psychology course during Wintersession in 2013.
Annual Drinking Water Quality Report University of Mississippi PWS ID# 0360015 2011
We’re very pleased to provide you with this year’s Annual Water Quality Report. We want to keep you informed about the excellent water and services we have delivered to you over the past year. Our goal is and always has been to provide you a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. The University of Mississippi water source is four on campus wells pumping from the Meridian-Upper Wilcox Aquifer. The Physical Plant routinely monitors our water source for constituents in your drinking water in accordance with Federal and State laws. This table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31st 2011. Our source water assessment has been completed. Our 4 active wells were ranked MODERATE in terms of susceptibility to contamination. For a copy of the report, please contact our office at 662.915.7051. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water utility, please contact David Adkisson at 662-9155923, or Reid Russell at 662-915-7051. We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. In this table you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we’ve provided the following definitions. • Action Level – The concentration of a contaminant which if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. • Treatment Technique (TT) – A treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. • Maximum Contaminant Level – The “Maximum Allowed” (MCL) is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. • Maximum Contaminant Level Goal – The “Goal” (MCLG) is the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.

Replaced water hydrant. Additional sampling did not show presence of coliform bacteria.
Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches.
All sources of drinking water, even bottled water, are subject to potential contamination by substances that are natural or manmade. These substances can be microbes, inorganic or organic chemicals and radioactive substances. All drinking water including bottled water may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791. Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons, such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorder, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791). Please call if you have questions. *****A MESSAGE FROM MSDH CONCERNING RADIOLOGICAL SAMPLING***** In accordance with the Radionuclides Rule, all community public water supplies were required to sample quarterly for radionuclides beginning January 2007 – December 2007. Your public water supply completed sampling by the schedule deadline; however, during an audit of the Mississippi State Department of Health Radiological Health Laboratory, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) suspended analyses and reporting of radiological compliance samples and results until further notice. Although this was not the result of inaction by the public water supply, MSDH was required to issue a violation. This is to notify you that as of this date, your water system has not completed the monitoring requirements. The Bureau of Public Water Supply has taken action to ensure that your water system returned to compliance by March 31, 2013. If you have any questions, please contact Melissa Parker, Deputy Director, Bureau of Public Water Supply, at 601.576.7518. Additional Information for Lead If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The Physical Plant is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tab for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at HYPERLINK “http://epa.gov/ safewater/lead” http://epa.gov/safewater/lead. The Mississippi State Department of Health Public Laboratory offers lead testing for $10 per sample. Please contact 601.576.7582 if you wish to have your water tested. To comply with the “Regulation Governing Fluoridation of Community Water Supplies”, the UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI is required to report certain results pertaining to fluoridation of our water system. The number of months in the previous calendar year that average fluoride sample results were within the optimal range of 0.7-1.3 ppm was 6. The percentage of fluoride samples collected in the previous calendar year that was within the optimal range of 0.7-1.3 ppm was 46%. We at the University of Mississippi Physical Plant work hard to provide quality water at every tap. We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community, our way of life and our children’s future. 27316

a run. Senior first baseman Matt Snyder brought junior right fielder Tanner Mathis home, but that may have been a bad thing. In the Rebels’ two wins, the opposing team scored first, and in their two loses, it was Ole Miss who grabbed an early lead. Sophomore right-hander Bobby Wahl got the start on two days rest, and he gave it all he could. The Springfield, Va., native allowed four runs on four hits in 4.1 innings of work while recording five strikeouts. “I just wanted to come out here and give my team the best chance to win,” Wahl said. “I didn’t do a great job of that tonight, and I just had to battle. We played our hearts out tonight. I left everything I had out there. It just wasn’t enough tonight.” Ole Miss had plenty of opportunities to score more runs and extend their lead, but they couldn’t get the big hit. TCU’s right-hander Justin Scharf came in to pitch inJun3_MCAN_46Web_Layout the fifth inning, and he 1 5/29/12 1:41 PM shut down the Rebel offense.
Scharf gave up just one run on four hits in 4.2 on the mound. “It was tough,” junior second baseman Alex Yarbrough said. “We were trying to preach to get the barrel out. I think we were all making a conscious effort to do that, but from the angle he’s throwing it from, it’s tough to pick up where the ball is going to be.” TCU took the lead with a pair of solo home runs by junior catcher Josh Elander and junior third baseman Jantzen Witte, but Ole Miss answered with a couple of runs in the fifth to take the lead back. Then, the Horned Frogs scored two more runs to take a 4-3 lead that they would not relinquish. TCU added one more run in the sixth and two in the seventh off sophomore right-hander Mike Mayers, who came in for Wahl, to get a commanding 7-3 lead. Mayers pitched 2.0 innings giving up three runs, one earned, off two hits. Junior right-hander Tanner Bailey was the third Rebel pitcher used on the night and went the final 1.2 innings giving up three hits. Page 1 Ole Miss tried to rally in
the ninth, getting the first two men aboard before Mathis got an RBI single to left field with one out to cut the deficit to 7-4 with runners on first and third. However, Yarbrough ended the game with a sharply hit ball to second that TCU turned into a double play. Mathis and junior third baseman Andrew Mistone were named to the All-Regional team.

If winning a regional wasn’t enough to think about, Yarbrough’s Ole Miss career could be over. The Allen, Texas, native is projected to be a high draft pick in the Major League Baseball Draft that began last night. It is still unknown if Yarbrough will come back to Oxford for his senior campaign, but where he lands in the draft could answer a lot of questions. Nevertheless, the draft was the last thing
on Yarbrough’s mind this weekend. “I was trying to focus on each inning, each game,” Yarbrough said. “We came out and got these first two wins, and I think if you ask anybody after those first two games, we were 100 percent sure we were going to a Super Regional. “That was really exciting, but I couldn’t be prouder of the way we competed. It was just a tough break tonight.”

Rebels in the Pros: St. Louis Cardinals’ Lance Lynn Former Ole Miss standout, Lance Lynn, caught fire early on in the Major Leagues this season, recording a league best eight wins.
Form Ole Miss right-hander is off to a good start for the St. Louis Cardinals, with eight wins in 11 starts. He has a 2.63 ERA in 18.1 innings of work.
BY BENNETT HIPP jbhipp@olemiss.edu
One year after making his major league debut for the St. Louis Cardinals, primarily as a reliever, former Ole Miss right-hander Lance Lynn has taken the National League by storm in 2012. Lynn, a supplemental first-
round pick by the Cardinals in the 2008 draft, made only two starts in 18 regular season appearances this past year. He also made 10 postseason appearances, including five in the World Series. Due to an injury to starter Chris Carpenter that was discovered during spring training, Lynn shifted to a starter
and has not looked back. He is currently tied for the lead for pitcher wins in all of baseball with eight. Cole Hamels of the Philadelphia Phillies and R.A. Dickey of the New York Mets have also recorded eight wins. Lynn has made 11 starts, throwing 68.1 innings with an earned run average of 2.63
while racking up 63 strikeouts compared to only 24 walks. His best start of the season thus far was April 25 on the road against the Chicago Cubs, where he went eight innings while giving up only six hits and one run. He struck out seven and walked just one. Always known for having a

very good four-seam fastball, much of Lynn’s success in 2012 can be attributed to the emergence of his two-seam fastball. The varying fastball has helped the rest of his arsenal. In his career at Ole Miss, Lynn racked up 22 career wins, 322 strikeouts and set the single-season strikeout record with 146 in 2007.
Walker leads Ole Miss track and field into final meet of the season Starting tomorrow, the Ole Miss track and field team will be heading to Des Moines, Iowa, for the NCAA track and field championships. The Rebels will be bringing six competitors for head coach Joe Walker’s last meet. BY TYLER BISCHOFF tfbischo@olemiss.edu
Track and field head coach Joe Walker will lead his final group of Rebels to the NCAA Outdoor National Championships tomorrow in Des Moines, Iowa. The meet will run through Saturday and feature over 20 different events. The men will enter the meet ranked 14th in the na-
tion. During Walker’s tenure, 11 Ole Miss teams have finished in the top 20 nationally. However, this year Walker’s goal is for the men to finish even higher. “With our men, our team goal was to finish in the top 10 nationally,” Walker said. “We would have to have a really good meet to do that, but we are capable.” Four men will represent Ole Miss at the NCAA Out-
door National Championships: Senior Carson Blanks, junior Ricky Robertson, junior Isiah Young and freshman Sam Kendricks. Young will compete in the 100 meters and 200 meters. In both events earlier this season, Young set the Ole Miss record with times of 10.08 and 20.32, respectively. Kendricks will compete in the pole vault, where he too owns a school record with a

height of 18-0.5. That height is also tied for the sixth best recorded height this season. Blanks will run the 400-meter hurdles for the Rebels, where he ranks ninth nationally with a time of 50.30. Robertson qualified in both the high jump and the triple jump, posting marks of 7-2.25 and 52-4, respectively. He currently holds the best mark in the world this season with a high jump of 7-7.25, which is also an Ole Miss record. Robertson also earned All-America honors five straight times in the high jump. Last season, the Rebel men were able to pull out a top 20 finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, finishing 19th, but Walker and his team are looking to improve on that mark this season. On the women’s side, two Rebels will compete for an NCAA championship: Senior Kristin Bridges and sophomore Fabia McDonald. Bridges will run the 400 meters, and McDonald will compete in the heptathlon. McDonald posted a score of 5,563 in the heptathlon at the 2012 Outdoor SEC Championships, which is the second highest score in Ole Miss history. Bridges currently ranks fourth in school history with a time of 52.65 in the 400 meters. Following the season,

Walker will take a job as an assistant at the University of Louisville where he will coach alongside his son, Joseph, who is currently an assistant coach there. Walker has been the head track and field coach at Ole Miss for 30 years and is looking to leave the program on a high note. “Ole Miss has been great to me,” Walker said. “I’ll hate closing that chapter, but I’m at peace with where I’m going.”
