HIGH POINT – The City Council on Monday unanimously approved a pair of rezoning requests that clears the way for a mosque to be built in south High Point. The council granted requests from Malik Hanif to rezone 6.9 acres on the east side of Allen Jay Road just north of E. Fair-
“In the last three or four years, we have seen tremendous growth in the population of the Muslim community. We are seeing so many immigrants and newcomers, and they are settling on the south side,” said Uzma Zaman, spokeswoman for the Islamic Center of High Point. “As new families are coming, they’re growing, they’re having kids, and we’re seeing a new generation of kids.”
Most of the discussion about the case centered around the impact of traffic generated by the mosque. City staff said Allen Jay Road currently gets about 10 percent of its vehicles-per-day capacity, and even combined with traffic from a nearby school, congestion shouldn’t be an issue. “I’m concerned about noise and congestion, with us living right

TRIAD – Talk about whiplash politics. This time two years ago, Democrats were giddy about their prospects to retake the White House, make gains in Congress and boost their numbers in state and local offices. The dissatisfaction over former Republican President George W. Bush and frustration over the financial industry collapse pushed voters to support Democratic candidates in the 2008 general election. Today, with unemployment hovering closer to 10 percent nationally and locally, the political wave has reversed. Entering the stretch run of this year’s midterm elections, Republicans are energized about their chances to make major gains at the polls Nov. 2 because of frustration with the administration of President Barack Obama, a Democraticcontrolled Congress and a Democratic-led N.C. General Assembly. “The economy is the foremost issue that drives voters to and from parties,” said Hunter Bacot, director of the Elon University Poll. The economy also appears to be influencing the level of interest among voters based on their political orientations, Bacot said. In October 2008, the Elon University Poll found that 80 percent of North Carolina Democrats were very or extremely interested in voting. By April of this year, the interest of state Democrats plummeted to 26 percent.

Local candidates’ campaign signs are seen along Eastchester Drive. Interest of North Carolina Republicans has fallen as well, but not as much – from 74 percent in October 2008 to 42 percent in April. The Elon University Poll will release updated figures this week leading into the general election. The hope and change themes of Obama’s presidential campaign in 2008 set high expectations for his presidency, and so far the results haven’t measured up to the expectations, said Matthew DeSantis, professor of political science at Guilford Technical Community College. “People were so excited about Obama’s presidency, and then everything slowed down when he got to Washington, D.C.,” DeSantis said. “Obama came in with so much hype and promise, and then has taken a long time to deliver on certain things.”
Another factor affecting the direction of politics this year is voters seeking a balance of power between Democrats and Republicans, Bacot said. “When one party controls too much, the public likes to make sure that control doesn’t extend for too long,” Bacot said. The party in power in the White House typically loses seats in Congress during midterm elections between presidential elections. In the past half-century, there only have been two times when the party controlling the White House gained seats, Democrats in 1998 and Republicans in 2002, DeSantis said. “What may be unusual this time is the amount of seats Democrats might lose,” DeSantis said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Thomasville OKs arming animal control officer BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
THOMASVILLE – The Thomasville City Council on Monday night voted unanimously to equip the Thomasville Police Department’s animal control officer with a weapon. The request to arm the officer with a gun was made by Thomasville police Chief Jeff Insley. He said he made the request to the City Council because he wants to provide better service for the residents of Thomasville. “I’m just looking for quality service and being able to protect our folk,” Insley said.
Arming the officer with the gun will decrease the likelihood of a resident being injured by a vicious animal, City Manager Kelly Craver said last week. Currently, the Thomasville Police Department has one animal control officer who carries only Mace. The animal control officer doesn’t carry a tranquilizer because there’s a different certification and another “set of hoops to jump through” to get the tranquilizer for the officer, Craver said. Insley said the police department will look into getting certification for the officer to carry a tranquilizer.
“I’m not one for just killing every animal that comes around,” Insley said. “There are some times where the presence of a stranger causes the animal to act a little crazy. If you are able to at least put them down and get them asleep, then maybe the owner can come claim the animal and then be held accountable for making sure they control the animal like they are supposed to be.” To carry the gun, the animal control officer will be required to go through the same weapon training that sworn officers have to go through. The animal control officer will not be allowed to carry a weap-

on off duty or on a school campus. When the use of force is needed, equipping the animal control officer with a gun will expedite the process rather than having to call for a back-up police officer, Craver said. “It’s a terrible feeling to be there and not be in a position where you can do something,” Insley said. “Hopefully, if need be when the time comes, we can be able to handle it.” Insley hopes to have animal control officer equipped with the gun in two weeks. dignasiak@hpe.com | 888-3657

on top of the site,” said Katherine Gillespie, whose Ingram Road property abuts the mosque site. Organizers said they don’t think the facility will impact traffic in the area at all because the hours when it draws people are expected to be from about 5-9 p.m. for children’s classes and for prayers early on Friday afternoons – times that shouldn’t conflict with school traffic. Other residents voiced concerns about whether the mosque will teach Sharia, or Islamic law, and whether information about the donors for the facility is a matter of public record. Zaman said the mosque will not teach Sharia. “If Christians are free to teach their kids, we can teach ours,” she said. “Just like you guys read the Bible, we’re going to read the Quran.” City Attorney Fred Baggett reminded the council that the law requires members to consider only land-use issues and not religious questions in deciding cases like the one Monday. “The Constitution of this great land does offer freedom of religion. The issue of faith has no bearing on these proceedings,” said Councilman Mike Pugh. pkimbrough@hpe.com | 888-3531

Vaccine deadline approaches ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
GUILFORD COUNTY – Parents have until Thursday to get a Tdap vaccination for their sixth-graders who need a shot to attend school. Students who have not received the vaccine or provided documentation will not be allowed to attend Guilford County middle schools on Friday. In 2008, a state law went into affect requiring all sixth-graders who have not had a Tdap vaccination since July 2005 to receive a booster shot by the start of the school year. The vaccine protects children and adults from three serious diseases – tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough). The law requires students who have not provided documentation of the shot to be excluded from school.
–
Cost: State-required and recommended childhood immunizations are free only to children who qualify for the federal Vaccines for Children (VFC) program, which cover children who are Medicaid-eligible, American Indian, Alaskan native, uninsured or underinsured. Appointment cards are not sufficient, according to the state. As of Monday, 1,000 students in Guilford County Schools had not provided a vaccination record. Last year at this time about 700 students had not provided proof of vaccination. Parents can get their sixth-graders vaccinated at their family
physicians’ offices or at the Guilford County Department of Public Health. The health department will provide the vaccine for free. Parents can schedule an appointment by calling the health department’s Greensboro location at 336641-5563 or High Point location at 336-845-7655. Parents should bring a shot record and insurance card to either clinic. Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis are all caused by bacteria. Diphtheria and pertussis are spread from person to person. Tetanus enters the body through cuts, scratches, or wounds. Tetanus, also known as lockjaw, causes painful tightening of the muscles, usually all over the body. It can lead to “locking” of the jaw, preventing the victim from opening his mouth or swallowing.

The people are professionals and care about what they do.” Goss has stressed connections in her work. “Children can, and will, learn from anyone who will take the time to know them, understand their interests, recognize how the content connects and focus on their needs,” she said for a district profile released Monday. As Teacher of the Year, Goss said she would seek to utilize as many of the new technologies as possible. Goss was also named middle school teacher of the year.

US-born panda gives birth to her 8th cub in China BEIJING (AP) – An American-born panda gave birth to her eighth cub in southwest China, a rare accomplishment for the endangered species known for being poor breeders. Hua Mei gave birth to a male cub at 3 a.m. on Friday at the Wolong China Giant Panda Research Center in Sichuan province, the
official Xinhua News Agency said Friday. The cub weighed 5.7 ounces at birth. This brings the number of panda births at the Wolong center to 16 this year, equal to last year’s total, the report said. Hua Mei – whose name means ChinaAmerica – was the first giant panda cub born in the United States
in 1999, at the San Diego Zoo, after a decade of failed breeding attempts. She returned to China in 2003 and now has eight cubs, including three sets of twins. Panda females have only three days a year in which they can conceive – one reason their species is endangered. Some males never succeed at natural breeding.

Suspect in slaying of chief’s daughter arrested Hamilton
Michael Harvey’s criminal record includes a conviction in N.Y. for first-degree sexual abuse and convictions in N.C. for failing to register as a sex offender and felony breaking-and-entering.
later described Valerie Hamilton as a “perfect daughter� in an interview with The Associated Press and said he felt kinship with the officers track-
ing Harvey. “Law enforcement across this country is like a brotherhood and a sisterhood and I’m hoping that they’ll help me with this, and that they can get out there and find this guy,� Hamilton told the AP before Harvey’s arrest. Valerie Hamilton was last seen alive at a Charlotte tavern. Police have said they think Harvey is the man spotted on surveillance video leaving the tavern with her early Wednesday. Charlotte-Mecklenburg po-
lice Chief Rodney Monroe said at a news conference Monday that it wasn’t clear whether the woman was abducted or may have chosen to go with Harvey. Investigators believe she was killed shortly after, either at Harvey’s Charlotte home, a motel room where he stayed late last week, or at the storage locker site. “All three of those are prominent crime scenes,� Monroe said.
An autopsy was being performed Monday. Her body had been wrapped in a material that Monroe wouldn’t specify. Hundreds of miles away in New York, the manhunt drew to a close on Monday at a house near where Harvey used to live. The suspect was asleep on a couch at a male friend’s house when 18 state, local and federal officers arrived, said Daniel Larish of the U.S. Marshals Service.

Investigators believe Harvey had been at the friend’s house since about noon on Sunday. Larish said he showed no emotion and seemed “lethargic.� Investigators in New York were told Saturday to be on the lookout for Harvey, and a tip from the Niagara County Sheriff’s Office ultimately led to the arrest, authorities there said. Harvey was being held in the Niagara County Jail Monday on a fugitive from justice warrant and was scheduled to appear in court there the next morning. Charlotte detectives were also traveling to New York to interview him.

Are those figures on city salaries correct? City hall salaries jumped 300 percent? Last Thursday, Mary Cridlebaugh said some pretty alarming things in a Your View letter. “City hall administrative salaries jumped to $4,654,340 in 2009 from $2,718,627 in 2008 and $1,122,687 in 2007.” That’s an eye-popping increase of 300 percent in three years! We all wish our 401(k)s did that well. If her numbers are correct, isn’t that a huge story? Doesn’t the city manager owe us an explanation? As Desi said all too often, “You got some splainin to do, Lucy.” Why in the world would city government be growing that much? I don’t recall seeing a 300 percent growth in the size of the city in the last three years. Maybe I need to get out more. Did we do a stealth annexation? The increase surely didn’t come from workers seeing big raises. There is no such thing in High Point as a cost of living increase. And the city manager’s favorite way of balancing the budget is freezing employees’ salaries. Even in good years, city employees’ annual performance pay raises are nearly always lower than the cost of living. What massive additional functions has the city taken on in the last three years to justify that

amount of hiring? I didn’t notice any additional employee parking lots around City Hall either. The city did purchase/lease the old Piedmont Gas building, but that building can not hold that many people. So who is getting all that money? Who got a 300 percent raise? How could anyone become that much more valuable to any organization within three years? I hope beyond hope that Cridlebaugh’s numbers are way off. I’ll bet the city manager is hoping so, too.

Moore is right candidate for High Point City Council High Point will benefit if its citizens elect Britt Moore to City Council in November. Although new to politics (a plus!), Moore is certainly not new to High Point. We have been fortunate to know Britt all his life – he is our younger brother. We have watched him grow up in this city, study in its schools, play on its athletic fields, attend church here and participate in its civic and
charitable organizations. We have seen his love and concern for the city grow as he began to raise his own family here and consider what High Point will be like when they are the generation “in charge.” We know our brother to be a dedicated, sincere man who truly wants to make a positive impact on this city. He doesn’t make snap judgments; he makes informed decisions by looking at all sides of an issue and making the right decision for the best longterm outcome. He is interested in making High Point a better community for all its citizens, those voting now, and those who will be voting in the future. He is focused on increasing job opportunities and economic growth by helping make High Point attractive to businesses. He supports efforts to grow cultural and athletic events to allow High Pointers to work and play in their own home town. Most importantly, our brother is a man of honor, integrity and character; something to be truly proud of and sought after in the current culture of politics. He believes that this country was founded on sound Christian principles of which we should be
proud. He wants to help make that happen here at home in High Point. We urge you to vote for Britt W. Moore for City Council at large, and help him make a difference for High Point. SHARYN M. ANDREWS DAVID MOORE JR. High Point
Why should we the people of High Point, Jamestown and the surrounding areas of Guilford County elect Bruce Davis to the North Carolina Senate 28 seat? 1. Davis is clean-cut. 2. Davis will diligently look after all our needs in this end of Guilford County. 3. He has proven, as county commissioner, that he is reliable. He will keep the constituents of this district informed. 4. Davis will listen. 5. Davis is not lazy. He will work hard to get the job done. 6. I could give many more reasons why it is time for us to come to our aid, because Bruce Davis has the qualities we need. It’s time! LAWRENCE GRAVES High Point

OUR VIEW
ho knows how the justices might rule, but earlier this month, the N.C. Supreme Court heard arguments in a lawsuit that could alter election ballot access procedures for political parties and their candidates in North Carolina. In 2005, the Libertarian Party of North Carolina, with support from the Green Party, filed suit arguing that state election laws on how political parties gain access to ballots are overly restrictive and therefore are unconstitutional. Language in the state constitution, the plaintiffs argue, basically calls for more openness and more ease of access to the political process for political parties than is now provided. They also contend state law is burdensome to political parties. We aren’t lawyers and don’t know how well legal counsel for the plaintiffs prepared and presented their cases before the state’s highest court. But we do agree with the Libertarians and the Greens that state laws are overly restrictive. We also believe that no matter how the Supreme Court rules, state law on ballot access should be changed. For a new party to gain access to the ballot, its members must collect verifiable voter signatures amounting to 2 percent of the votes cast in the last governor’s race. Based on the last election, that’s currently about 70,000 valid signatures. If that party does get on the ballot, then its candidate for governor must garner 2 percent of the votes cast in the governor’s race. If not, the party loses its certification as a political party in the state and its ballot access and must incur the trouble and the expense of getting signatures again. It’s pretty obvious these stringent party certification and ballot access laws, which have roots in the 1980s, are designed to protect the two dominate parties from competition. Flimsy excuses such as more parties on the ballot will make lines longer at the polls just don’t hold sway. So, whether or not the N.C. Supreme Court agrees, it is past time for North Carolina to change its laws and open the political process to more people and the various political parties to which they belong. If the state’s high court doesn’t act, the Legislature should.

Legislature’s lobbyists do love these federal bailouts

f it sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true. This good advice doesn’t just apply to business, relationships, and the efficacy of home remedies sold over the Internet. It also applies to politics. When politicians promise that give you all sorts of valuable goodies, while making someone else pay for all those valuable goodies, disbelieve them. Especially disbelieve them if they try to claim that North Carolinians won’t have to pay for the goodies because the “federal government” will. The federal government has no money that it does not first tax from us, either directly through tax levies or by inflating the money supply. When Gov. Beverly Perdue and the Democratic leaders of the General Assembly took credit for plugging billions of dollars in state budget deficits with “federal dollars,” what they were really celebrating was their clever evasion of the North Carolina constitution. Our state constitution requires that our budget be balanced every year. It forbids the use of borrowed money to pay for operating expenses. Because the federal constitution has no such provision, the federal government has run deficits in most of the past 70 years. Recently, the deficits have exceeded $1 trillion a year. In effect, all of the federal money used to plug North Carolina’ budget hole was borrowed. That’s unwise and, at best, extra-constitutional. But the story gets even worse. By using borrowed money to sustain levels of state spending that current state taxes can’t sustain, Perdue and legislative leaders have set the stage for future tax increases. By protecting billions of dollars in waste, fraud, and ineffective programs, they strengthened the special-interest constituency that benefits from these programs.
Those lobbies will be back in 2011 and beyond to protect their programs from cuts. History suggests that, more often than not, these spending lobbies will succeed. A new study from economists Russell Sobel and George OPINION Crowley demonstrates the effects in clear statistical terms. John After examining several deHood cades of federal and state fiscal ■■■ trends and modeling how federal subsidies influence state decisions, the economists concluded that for every $1 of federal aid to states, future state taxes rise by between 33 and 42 cents. Some argue that, in theory, Washington can help smooth out the effects of economic cycles by borrowing to support government expenditures during recessions and then paying off the debts and reducing the expenditures during economic booms. Even if this policy was justified, it relies on an unrealistic assumption – that after the recession is over, politicians will adjust government debts and budgets accordingly. In reality, government programs persist as long as their political constituencies retain power. By using “federal funds” to avoid making necessary budget adjustments in 2009 and 2010, Perdue and the General Assembly have only made it harder to carry out those adjustments in 2011. That’s precisely what public-sector unions, vendors, activist groups, and other spending lobbies wanted. They are big fans of federal bailouts. That’s a good reason why the rest of us shouldn’t be.

Israeli minister: Palestinians need to compromise JERUSALEM (AP) – With crisis looming for recently restarted Mideast peace talks, Israel’s deputy prime minister on Monday urged the Palestinians to relax their demand that a freeze on new Jewish settlement construction be extended past its planned weekend expiration. Palestinian officials quickly rejected the idea, leaving a deadlock in place.
“In order to succeed in these negotiations both parties need to understand that (neither side) can come out of them with all that they wanted,� said Dan Meridor, describing the dispute as an indicator of Palestinian good faith. “The first test for spirit of compromise on both sides is this issue of moratorium.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) – Afghan authorities said Monday it was too early to judge the validity of the country’s parliamentary ballot despite observers’ reports of widespread fraud in the vote that was to help consolidate its shaky democracy. Also Monday, Britain’s military handed the U.S. responsibility for a dangerous district in southern Afghanistan that has been the scene of some of the bloodiest fighting involving British troops for the past four years. Despite Taliban rocket strikes and bombings, Afghans voted on Saturday for a new parliament, the first election since a fraud-tainted presidential ballot last year that cast doubt
on the legitimacy of the embattled government. The independent Free and Fair Elections Foundation of Afghanistan, the observer group that deployed about 7,000 observers to monitor the elections, voiced “serious concerns� about the quality of the elections. It said in its preliminary report published Monday that the parliamentary vote was marred by ballot-stuffing, proxy voting, underage voting, the use of fake voter identification cards and repeated voting. The group urged President Hamid Karzai’s government to allow an independent investigation into reports of widespread electoral fraud, including intimidation of voters.

HPU students, local GOP hear from Rove BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
HIGH POINT – Conservative leader Karl Rove brought his critique and criticism of the administration of President Barack Obama to High Point Monday night, saying that the midterm elections this fall could become a backlash against Democratic Party policies. Rove spoke to High Point University students, area Republican Party supporters and elected officials and other guests during an address on campus.
The deputy chief of staff and senior adviser to former President George W. Bush spoke Rove in the HPU Hayworth Fine Arts Center in an event that wasn’t open to the general public. Obama came into office in early 2009 with high expectations and a cross-section of public support, Rove acknowledged. But as the policies of the Obama administration and Democratic-controlled
Jobless rate fuels shift in mood
Congress have panned out during the past year and a half on issues such as health care reform and the size of government, the president’s popularity has slumped, Rove told the crowd. “We’re going backwards, not forwards,” he said. The reaction against Congress and the Obama administration, along with developments such as the Tea Party movement, may heighten voter participation in the Nov. 2 midterms. Four years ago 82 mil-
lion voters cast midterm ballots, and Rove said he could envision this fall’s turnout pushing to 90 million or more voters. Rove devoted a significant portion of his speech to criticizing Obama policies, spending less time in his address defending or explaining policies of the eight years of the Bush administration. Rove particularly was critical of the national health care reform legislation passed earlier this year, saying its flawed assumptions and risky funding approach-
es could bring financial disaster in coming years. “If we love this country, we’ve got to commit to repealing it,” he said, referring to the health care reform law. Rove’s visit to HPU was organized through the university chapter of the College Republicans, as well as the Young America’s Foundation. He took questions submitted by HPU students and other members of the audience after his half-hour remarks. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

Political climate has changed in two years. 1A
BY PAUL B. JOHNSON ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
TRIAD – Suppose unemployment rates across the country, state and region were hovering closer to 6 percent rather than 10 percent. Would the political atmosphere heading into the fall general election be the same? A pair of area political analysts have a succinct answer – no. Many issues have flared since President Barack Obama took the oath of office in January 2009 after riding a Democratic political wave into the White House. Intense debates have boiled over on topics ranging from health care reform and regulation of the financial industry to the direction of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. But one issue has dominated the direction of politics during the past two years – the economy and, specifically, unemployment. The stagnant level of joblessness at higher-thannormal rates has driven the shift of the political atmosphere from benefiting Democrats as it did in 2006 and 2008 to bolstering Republicans this year, the political analysts say. “If the economy were at 6 percent unemployment now, I don’t think we’re having as many of these issues,” said Matthew DeSantis, professor of political science at Guilford Technical Community College. If unemployment were significantly lower this far into the Obama administration, the polls wouldn’t be as tilted against Democrats heading into the general election, said Hunter Bacot, director of the Elon University Poll. “You are seeing Republicans gaining momentum due to the nature of the economic times,” Bacot said. pjohnson@hpe.com | 888-3528

The crowd fills Main Street at a Everybody’s Day in Thomasville. This year’s festival will be Saturday.
Thomasville prepares for Everybody’s Day BY DARRICK IGNASIAK ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
THOMASVILLE – Doug Croft says this weekend’s 102nd anniversary of the state’s oldest festival will live up to its name. “I know it’s cliche, but there’s no question that anybody can find something interesting and fun to do at this event,” said Croft, president of the Thomasville Area Chamber of Commerce. Everybody’s Day, which attracts about 80,000 people each year, will be held in downtown Thomasville from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. The first Everybody’s Day was held in 1908, and it’s believed the festival stopped in 1952 for many years. In 1984, several community leaders and the Thomasville Area Chamber of Commerce brought the festival back. While some festivals are about cultural arts or solely music, Everybody’s Day is all inclusive, Croft said. He said it doesn’t matter who you are, you can find something at the festival.

NAACP plans legal action against Wake schools MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
RALEIGH -- National NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous will be in Raleigh on Saturday for whatB’s being billed as a major announcement on legal action against the Wake County school system for its new student assignment policy. The Rev. William Barber, president of the state NAACP, one of the organizers of Saturday’s event, said they’ll “unveil the first legal strategies
challenging resegregation” in Wake and other school districts in North Carolina. The announcement will be made at 9 a.m. at Christian Faith Baptist Church, 509 Hilltop Drive in Raleigh. The presence of Jealous, a leading figure in the civil rights movement, will serve to give opponents of Wake’s move to neighborhood schools even more national attention. “(Jealous) has said that what happens in Wake County is not only a local matter but has na-
Teacher behind legendary band’s name dies JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) – Leonard Skinner, the basketball coach and gym teacher who inspired the name of the Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd, died Monday in Florida, his daughter said. He was 77. Skinner died in his sleep at the St. Catherine Laboure Manor in Jacksonville, where he had been living for about a year, his daughter Susie Moore said. Skinner had Alzheimer’s disease. He was working at Robert E. Lee High School in Jacksonville in the late 1960s when he sent a group of students to the principal’s office because their hair was too long. Those students later formed a band, using a variation of Skinner’s name for their own. During an interview in January 2009, Skinner said he was always bothered by the way the legend grew to say he was particularly tough on the band members or that he had kicked them out of school, according to The Florida Times-Union, which first reported Skinner’s death. “It was against the school rules,” Skinner said then. “I don’t particularly like long hair on men, but again, it wasn’t my rule.”
tional importance,” Barber said. Jealous has previously spoken out on the situation in Wake. He had called in March for Ron Margiotta to resign as chairman of the school board for having said “here come the animals out of the cages” at a school board meeting.

Electric car company delays production SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) – An electric car manufacturing company is delaying production at a new South Carolina plant until at least Christmas. The Herald-Journal of Spartanburg reported Monday that CC&T Southeast expects pro-

Attorney for James Earl Ray dies at 97 NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Jack Kershaw of Nashville, one of a series of attorneys hired by James Earl Ray, has died. He was 97. Ray hired Kershaw and several others after being convicted of slaying the civil rights lead-

artist, sculptor, home builder, lecturer and historian. Among his work is a statue of Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest that stands alongside Interstate 65 just south of Nashville.

Trial begins for woman accused of killing repairman by Jones, who provided her with a place to stay and food when needed. McKoy, 27, is charged with first-degree murder, attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy. The trial is expected to last about a week. She is represented by Fayetteville lawyer James Parish. The prosecutor in the case is Assistant District Attorney Cal Colyer. Investigators said Jones, 74, was robbed at knifepoint at the shop. He was killed during a struggle. Also charged was Anthony Keith Leslie. According to arrest warrants, Leslie placed a knife against Jones’ throat and sliced and stabbed the man multiple times after he fought back. McKoy was arrested at the scene of the crime. She told Fayetteville police that the robbery had been planned, according to investigators.

Burr questions new compensation to veterans exposed to Agent Orange RALEIGH (AP) – The leading Republican on the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee said Monday that he also has concerns about a proposal that would spend billions of dollars on disability compensation for Vietnam veterans who get heart disease. North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr added his voice to leading Democrats on the committee who have reservations about the spending and plan to discuss the issue at a Capitol Hill hearing this week. Because of concerns about the defoliant Agent Orange, the
Department of Veterans Affairs wants to allow tens of thousands of Vietnam veterans to get compensation for heart disease, a common ailment for older adults. Burr said he shares some of the same concerns raised by Virginia Sen. Jim Webb, a Vietnam combat veteran. “We’d like to make sure that, one, the science has a causal link, and two, that the defined population is an appropriate one,� Burr said in an interview, his first public comments on the topic. Congress set up a system two decades ago so that the
VA could automatically grant benefits to veterans who served in Vietnam during a 13-year period and later got one of the ailments linked to Agent Orange. Compensation has been approved for a series of ailments with strong indications of an association to the defoliant, including Hodgkin’s disease, softtissue cancers and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. But that list is also growing to include common ailments for which decades of research has found only the possibility of a link, including diabetes, prostate cancer and lung cancer.

Next generation may give life to heirloom baby set
D
ear Abby: My mother passed away two years ago, and her first greatgrandchild will be born in less than two months. I had hoped when I was still in my 30s to have a child of my own, so I had Mom crochet me a baby set – sweater, booties, cap and blanket. Sadly, motherhood for me was not to be. Do you think this baby set should go to the firstborn greatgrandchild, or to Mom’s favorite grandchild’s children? The color is gender-neutral. Should I perhaps “loan� it to each of the great-grandchildren when they arrive to ensure that it will be maintained as a family heirloom? I paid for all the materials and Mom’s time in creating these items. I feel it would be selfish not to share them. – Soon-to-be-great-aunt Dear Soon-to-begreat-aunt: If you wish to establish that the baby set will become a family heirloom, stipulate that it is your intention that it be shared among the family members as more children come along. I do not recommend playing favorites with it, because to do so could create resentment. However, it is important that you understand that once the baby set is given, it will be out of your control. There are no guarantees that it won’t be damaged or hoarded. So unless you are ready to let go of it
emotionally, don’t give it away. Dear Abby: I am writing ADVICE about a random act Dear of kindAbby ness. Last ■■■night my husband and I went out to dinner with our two small children. He’s in the Army and wore his uniform because he had gotten off late and he didn’t want to keep the kids from eating while he changed. While we waited for our meal to be served, our waiter came to us and said it was our “lucky night.� The couple seated next to us was paying for the entire meal. Things like this have happened to my husband before – with small lunches or drinks – but never something as large as dinner for four. The gesture was touching and thoughtful, and made more special by the fact that it was the woman’s birthday. That she thought of someone else on “her� day made me smile. We only got the gentleman’s name – it was Russell, like our son’s – but not hers. We want to express our gratitude to her. And we hope her birthday was as delightful as our evening was, thanks to her. – Touched By Her Kindness in Fort Huachuca, Ariz. Dear Touched: I’m
sure it was. Happy people like to spread the joy around. And thank you for reminding me and my readers how much an expression of gratitude to our members of the military can mean to those who receive one.
last month that some 270,000 Vietnam veterans – more than one-quarter of the 1 million receiving disability checks – are getting compensation for diabetes. It is now the most frequently compensated disability for Vietnam veterans, ahead of post-traumatic stress and hearing loss. The VA’s latest proposal, which will go into effect at the end of October unless Congress acts to block it, adds heart disease along with Parkinson’s disease and certain types of leukemia.

Dear Abby: I have a beautiful 2-month-old daughter, and I like to dress her in little pants and shirts rather than dresses. Often these clothes are in genderneutral colors – yellow, green and, yes, sometimes blue. Whenever she’s wearing something other than pink, people assume she’s a boy and say things like, “Oh, what a handsome little guy,� or, “Hi, big boy!� How would you suggest I respond to these people? Should I ignore them and go on with my errands or correct them?

Sept. 20--Lawyers have begun jury selection in a trial of a Hope Mills woman accused of killing at TV repairman in 2007. Latasha Rochelle McKoy, of Omega Drive is one of two people charged with killing Elwyn “OJ� Oneil Jones during a botched robbery in July 2007. Jones ran OJ’s TV Shop at 1620-A Clinton Road, according to family. Those who knew him described him as a caring man who never hesitated to help someone in need. Family members said he often accepted less than what was normally charged at his repair shop when a customer could not afford full price. He helped troubled youth by teaching them about electronics, relatives said. McKoy, accused of planning the robbery, was among those helped

Stress has major impact BY CHRISTINE ALFORD
S
tress is what you feel when you must handle more than normal. When stressed, the body responds as though it is in danger. It releases hormones that increase heart rate and breathing and gives a burst of energy. Stress is a normal part of life, but if left unmanaged, stress can lead to emotional, psychological and even physical problems, including heart disease, high blood pressure or irregular heartbeats. Chronic stress can also be linked to headaches, upset stomach, back pain and trouble sleeping. It can weaken the immune system, making it harder to fight off disease. If you already have a health problem, stress may make it worse. It can make you moody, tense or depressed. Everyone reacts to stress differently. There are various ways of managing stress. The first step is to identify what is making you feel stressed. If you can identify the source of stress, it will be easier to find an effective way to manage it. A common method is to start a stress journal. When you feel stressed, write it down. This not only helps identify the cause, it also works as a way of venting. You will be surprised how much better you will feel once you put it down on paper. Another option is to take a break and do another activity that you enjoy and one that helps you relax. It can be listening to music or reading a book. Any activity you enjoy and one that allows you to “lose yourself� will help you to relax and clear your mind. A great solution many people tend to overlook is exercise. Exercise is proven to improve mood, helping to combat anxiety, depression, pessimism and many other health related illnesses. Exercise releases endorphins into the body, helping to improve your mood and make you feel better. Research shows you can feel the benefits of exercise with as little as 10 minutes a day. Managing stress is crucial in maintaining good health. Everyone is different; therefore, try various methods to see what works best for you.

Q
uestion: Help! My lawn took a beating this summer, and I have heard the time of year to do my over-seeding is in the fall. What do I need to do? Answer: Many lawns have been dormant this summer due to a lack of moisture and the excessive heat. (Mine is beyond dormant, and there are some large dead patches.) Normally, a healthy lawn can stay dormant for five to eight weeks without harm. But it is important to keep the crown hydrated because if the crown dies, the plant dies. About Âź inch of water every two weeks is enough to hydrate the crown. If your lawn looks like mine, then it is time to think about over-seeding or even renovating and replanting a new lawn area. Even though thoughts of lawn seeding often focus on spring, right now is actually the best time. Soils are warm, so seeds germinate rapidly. Weed problems, principally crabgrass, are less of a concern as we move
into fall. Cooler weather favors rapid development of grasses with little stress. The main thing that could be missing is rainfall, so be sure to have an irrigation plan if rain is sparse. When over-seeding or repairing a lawn area, it is critical to have good seed-to-soil contact. If seed is just scattered over living grass and debris, little will germinate and grow. The site needs some preparation to assure over-seeding success. If replacing an entire lawn, existing debris can be tilled under or removed. If existing grass or weeds exist, either pull them out or treat with the herbicide glyphosate (Roundup, Kleerway). Glyphosate may take 10 to 14 days to kill the vegetation, so apply as soon as possible to get the lawn seeded in time. Over-seeding existing lawn areas can be more difficult. One way to achieve good results is to use a slit-seeder that will plant seed through existing grass and debris right into the soil. The lawn could also be core

aerated prior to seeding, which I would highly recommend. Finally, be sure to over-seed with the right grass. If over-seeding into an existing lawn, match the mix with the species present. Adding quality cultivars can help increase stress tolerances. When replacing lawn, match the grass to the site factors. Kentucky bluegrass, often mixed with perennial rye grass, is best for full sun. When shade influences the site, fine fescues become the preferred species, often mixed with shade tolerant Kentucky bluegrass cultivars.

Ultrasound is reliable test for stroke prevention
D
ear Dr. Donohue: My uncle just had an emergency carotid endarterectomy for 99 percent occlusion of his right carotid artery. He is 82 years old and quite fit. He had a carotid Doppler (ultrasound) study every year. Furthermore, there was no bruit in his artery. Doppler studies do not show occlusions greater than 90 percent. Why is this technique used? He started having transient symptoms, including vision loss and loss of the use of fingers on his left hand. If this had gone untreated, it could have been fatal. – J.G.
BLONDIE
B.C.
Doppler ultrasound is a safe, effective, reliable and relatively inexpensive way to determine the buildup of plaque (mounds of cholesterol) in the carotid arteries, the neck arteries that bring blood to the brain. They show occlusions all the way to 100 percent. Someone has misinformed you. A bruit (BREW-ee) is a noise heard in an artery. Normal flow of blood in an artery is silent. Noise indicates an obstruction. Unfortunately, most narrowed carotid arteries don’t generate a bruit. It’s a good sign of trouble when present, though. Your uncle’s symptoms of transient vision loss

and the inability to use the fingers of his left hand were transient ischemic HEALTH attacks, TIAs. Dr. Paul Other TIA Donohue signs are ■■■ numbness on one side, blurred vision, double vision, trouble expressing oneself and dizziness. The signs and symptoms of TIAs are fleeting, never lasting longer than a day but usually lasting only for minutes to less than an hour. These are warnings of great danger. A stroke lies in the near future unless something is done to prevent it. Your uncle’s endarterectomy is a procedure where the surgeon opens the clogged artery and removes the obstructing plaque. Please give your uncle my best wishes for a speedy recovery. Dear Dr. Donohue: I am 76 years young. I had a cholesterol check from blood obtained by a finger stick. It was high. I decided to have other tests, and it was good that I did. I found out I have diabetes. Recently the medical center changed doctors. The new doctor ordered a new cholesterol test
after fasting for 12 hours. When I questioned the difference in results, the girl told me that blood was blood. The next morning they called to tell me I had high blood pressure. I took the van again. When I arrived, they told me the doctor was out sick. I haven’t heard anything since. This is irritating. Why didn’t someone call me? – Anon. I can’t help you with the runaround you’re getting at the clinic, but I would call again and ask to talk to the doctor. If you get the brush-off, give them your number and ask that the doctor call you. If you don’t hear within two hours, call back and keep calling back until the doctor talks to you. The change in lab values is probably due to the fact that this time you fasted for 12 hours. That will give you a different but more accurate blood sugar reading and a better reading for your triglycerides – fats that are a bit like cholesterol. DR.

Harvey Cagle, food service coordinator for Brookdale Senior Living’s High Point Place and Clare Bridge facilities, is one of 10 chefs chosen from a sevenstage region – and one of only two from North Carolina – for the competition, which will take place Thursday at one of Brookdale’s Atlanta senior living facilities. “It’s a great honor,” said Cagle, 24, of Archdale. “This was open to everybody who works for Brookdale, so to be one of only 10 chosen means a lot to me.” Cagle was nominated for the honor by his facility manager and was selected as one of the top 10 after submitting a biography, a heart-healthy recipe and an essay explaining why he enjoys cooking for senior citizens. A Seagrove native, Cagle learned to cook at an early age and has always enjoyed it. He began cooking at a skilled nursing home seven years ago, when he was still in high school, went on to study culinary arts at Guilford Technical Community College, and has trained under a number of talented chefs. He has worked with Brookdale for two years, initially managing the kitchen at High Point Place and now managing the kitchen there and at Clare Bridge. “I like working with the elderly population, just to see them smile when they have a plate of food put in front of them,” Cagle said. “Also, mealtime is one of the most important times of the day for them, because they get to spend time with other seniors and enjoy their dining experience.” During the Ultimate Chef America competition, two teams of five will square off against each other in a twohour event that will focus on healthy cooking for seniors. Cagle’s team, the Thyme Bandits, will compete against the Southern Sizzlers. “We’ll prepare the dishes for eight people – a starter, an entree, two sides and a dessert,” Cagle explained. “A team of five judges will decide the winning team.” Scores will be based on a point sys-

‘Design Education’ walk set for Saturday ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
T
he Carolinas Chapter of the International Furnishings & Design Association will stage its second “Walk for Design Education” – focusing on High Point, past and present – Saturday morning, beginning at 200 Steele. Registration will begin at 9 a.m., with the walk set to begin at 10. The cost is $25 for adults, $10 for students or children 10 or older, free for children younger than 10 when accompanied by an adult. Proceeds will go to the Ruth Clark Furniture Design Scholarship Fund and the Raymond Waites Design Competition Fund. The national “Walk for Design Education” is sponsored by the IFDA Educational Foundation. The Carolinas Walk route begins north on Hamilton, pausing at key showrooms, then stops at a High Point landmark, the big chest of drawers, where participants will learn of its history, starting with the first version built in 1926 as a home for the city’s Chamber of Commerce. It was repainted several times, and during World War II
SPECIAL | HPE
The big chest of drawers, a stop on the “Walk for Design Education,” was built in 1926 as a home for the Chamber of Commerce. the facade was inscribed with the names of 2,800 High Pointers serving in the armed forces. In 1951, it was sold to the High Point Jaycees, and in the mid-1990s designer
Sidney Lenger undertook a major renovation of the chest with a shell-carved facade recalling the 1700s. Lenger added socks to one drawer in recognition of the city’s hosiery industry. From there, walkers will stroll south on Wrenn Street past various showrooms, and as they cross the bridge, they will note the High Point Depot, circa 1908, which marked the “high point” between Charlotte and Goldsboro. Also mentioned will be the original Tomlinson furniture factory built in 1902, which was refurbished and became Market Square. At Showplace West, the High Point Market Authority is hosting a refreshment stop. The group will then walk to the International Home Furnishings Center to learn its history, then stop at the John Coltrane statue and learn about this unique jazz musician who was born in Hamlet, but lived in High Point from infancy through high school. The walkers will then return to 200 Steele, where a drawing for prizes will be held. For information on how to register for the walk or make a tax-deductible contribution, visit www.ifdaef.org.

dummy’s queen to endplay East.
DAILY QUESTION You hold: S Q 9 4 3 H 10 6 3 D A Q C 6 4 3 2. Your partner opens one spade, you raise to two spades and he next jumps to four diamonds. What do you say?
END-PLAYED Cy booted the slam. He should draw trumps, take his heart tricks and the ace of diamonds, ruff the queen of diamonds, and lead the ace and a low club. If clubs break 41, the defender who wils will be end-played. Even as Cy played, he could have succeeded by winning the second club, cashing the hearts, taking the ace of diamonds and pitching a club on
CROSSWORD
Tuesday, Sept. 21, 2010 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Joseph Mazzello, 27; Luke Wilson, 39; Faith Hill, 43; Stephen King, 63 HAPPY BIRTHDAY: There are gains to be made by using your wisdom, experience and ingenuity to advance. Making a couple of strategic moves personally will help to stabilize your position on all fronts in the future. Welcome change. Opportunities to improve relationships are present if you take advantage of what’s being offered. Your numbers are 4, 10, 17, 22, 26, 37, 48 ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have to relax and realize that you can only do what’s humanly possible. Stop being so hard on yourself and focus more on the moment. A partnership that has given you trouble in the past may be worth revisiting. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Deliver any information you have with gusto and learn from the people to whom you offer your knowledge and experience. Open up the doors of communication and network. Diversify and you can outdo any competition. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Tread carefully or you will offend someone you are trying to get to know better or work with. Offering help to an organization or individual for the wrong reason will end in disaster as well as financial loss. Budget wisely and work on self-improvement. ★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): You may not be ready for a change but you must take advantage of any opportunity that helps you get ahead. Take on a new challenge that can change your status and your income. A romantic evening will lead to better understanding. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Clear up any personal paperwork or changes that need to be made at home. A move or redecorating will improve your overall attitude and comfort level. An unusual lifestyle change will help you achieve greater self-satisfaction. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There will be opportunities to make some changes at home that accommodate a relationship you are trying to improve. Love is on the rise and speaking from the heart will bring the desired results. Financial gains are in the stars. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t waste time on situations you cannot change. Focus on work, making money and getting ahead and you will. A creative approach to what you have to offer will interest someone with the potential to help you develop and present what you can supply. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Have a little faith in yourself, your relationships and your ability to finish what you start. Travel or using technology wisely will allow you to bring what you have to offer to potential clients. Romance is likely. ★★★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Be careful what you promise. You may get yourself into trouble if you cannot fulfill the obligations you’ve taken on. Talk less and take action. Upset and opposition can be expected when dealing with family matters. ★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): No matter what you face professionally or personally, participation is all that’s required. You can set a new standard and influence the people you deal with by offering your experience and knowledge. Reuse, recycle, revamp equals success. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Be creative and offer only what you know you can fulfill. Question your connection to friends and you will realize who belongs in your life and who doesn’t. Once you set your course, it will be easier to stick to the plans you have for the future. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Look at contracts, settlements or legal documents and consider how you can turn negatives into positives. Money can be made if you partner with someone of talent with the potential to make an idea you have work. Love is in the stars. ★★★

BRIDGE Tribune Media Services Cy the Cynic’s former job remains a mystery. Cy won’t talk about it, except in jest. “Whatever it was, it must have paid well,” I said. “Where I worked, you could name your salary,” Cy replied. “That’s impressive.” “I named mine ‘Walter,”’ shrugged Cy. Cy’s bank balance wasn’t as impressive after today’s deal. West led a heart against Cy’s six spades, and the Cynic won with the jack. He took the A-K of trumps and ace of clubs, led a trump to dummy and returned a club. When East showed out, Cy took the king and tried a diamond to the queen for his 12th trick. East won, and Cy lost a club.
HOROSCOPE
ANSWER: Some pairs might, by agreement, treat partner’s jump as singleton-showing. Assuming instead that he has a two-suited hand with slam interest, you may have a grand slam. Partner may hold A K 10 6 2, A 4, K J 10 7 6, A. Cuebid five diamonds. Even if he signs off at five spades, you’ll bid six spades. South dealer N-S vulnerable
ONE STAR: It’s best to avoid conflicts; work behind the scenes or read a good book. Two stars: You can accomplish but don’t rely on others for help. Three stars: If you focus, you will reach your goals. Four stars: You can pretty much do as you please, a good time to start new projects. Five stars: Nothing can stop you now. Go for the gold.

Phillips joins Guilford Sports Hall B
enny Phillips has never been shy about telling a good story. His speech during induction ceremonies for the Guilford County Sports Hall of Fame on Monday night was no exception. The former sports editor of The High Point Enterprise was among 13 added to the Hall’s rolls. The others included High Point University baseball standout Otis Foster Jr., former Sumner and Southern High School coach C.K. Siler, former Clemson and Tampa Bay Buccaneers standout Jeff Davis, former Greensboro tenSPORTS nis association president Sharron Frahm, longtime Guilford Greer baseball coach Stuart MaySmith nard, Greensboro Grasshop■■■ pers president Donald Moore, Charlotte Bobcat president Fred Whitfield, former Greensboro News and Record sports editor Irwin Smallwood and three in a Legends class – sports philanthropist Joseph Bryan and Greensboro youth baseball organizers Bob Doss and Bill White. All thanked family and friends. Davis provided entertainment when he sang the Dudley High School alma mater. Moore joked that for a time he thought the only Hall of
Fame he would make would be the “Miller Lite Hall of Fame.” Foster, who still holds the High Point University record for home runs in a season, was impressed by the capacity crowd of 400 that gathered in the Greensboro Coliseum Phillips Special Events Center. He was appreciative of representation from coworkers from the city of High Point and HPU. “This is crazy,” Foster said of the turnout. “This is what the Hall of Fame is all about, to be here with your family and friends. All of my family is here, including those from the city and HPU. What more can you ask for?” Siler, who went 178-84-11 in 26 years as a head coach, was surprised that he was even selected. “I don’t know if I deserve it,” Siler said. “This is more about the kids that I coached and my coaching staffs.” Siler did generate some laughs when he said the first football game he played in was the first one he saw. No one could hold a candle to Phillips as he generated the most laughs and commanded the most attention. After thanking his wife Judy and HPE editors Joe Brown, Ken Irons and Tom Blount,
Phillips broke from the script that many used as they concentrated in acknowledging those that helped him along the way. In fact, as the crowd gathered Monday, Phillips said he didn’t have a script. “I think I can fill seven minutes,” he said. He certainly did, relaying one story of how he was moved from batboy into the starting lineup of an industrial league baseball team, in his hometown in Boonville when one of the players got into a jar of moonshine on the way to the game. He told of how he got to carry the ball for a touchdown in one of his first high school games at the urging of the star running back. “That taught me about sharing,” Phillips said. He continued sharing on Monday, relaying that he majored in accounting at High Point College but hated it and jumped at the chance to become a sports writer when given the opportunity by former Enterprise editor Holt McPherson. “I said give me a chance,” Phillips said. “I tried to write human interest stories with a little humor. Sincerely, I really never wanted to do anything else. I hold those memories dearly.” He helped create more on Monday night. gsmith@hpe.com | 888-3556
Thomasville tops clearer High Five BY MARK MCKINNEY ENTERPRISE SPORTS EDITOR
HIGH POINT – The High Point Enterprise High Five prep football poll gained clarity after Friday night’s action. Last week’s survey featured a two-way tie for second place and a three-way tie for fifth. There are no such logjams this week. Thomasville remains a unanimous No. 1 with all three first-place votes and 15 points. The Bulldogs (50) crushed Davie County 27-7 on Friday night to win their home opener after four impressive road wins. High Point Central (4-1) snapped the second-place tie with Ragsdale (4-1). The Bison, who clobbered T.W. Andrews 33-0 at Simeon Stadium, earned two of three-second-place votes and 11 points. The Tigers, who routed Roxboro Person 52-7 in Jamestown on Friday night, collected the other second-place vote and 10 points. Bishop McGuinness maintained a hammerlock on fourth place with five points following a 48-9 thrashing of South Stokes in the Northwest 1A/2A Conference opener for both teams. The Villains stand 4-0 overall.

HAMELS, PHILLIES BEAT BRAVES

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Cole Hamels had another outstanding outing, and the Philadelphia Phillies took advantage of an error by Jason Heyward to beat the Atlanta Braves 3-1 on Monday night, increasing their lead in the NL East to four games. The two-time NL champion Phillies won their eighth straight game.

Rookie Jimmy Clausen will start at quarterback when the Carolina Panthers play host to Cincinnati on Sunday in Charlotte.
Panthers go with Clausen CHARLOTTE (AP) – A day before his 23rd birthday, Jimmy Clausen received a job promotion he seemed destined for since before he entered high school: NFL starting quarterback. In a rapid ascension made possible by Matt Moore’s six turnovers and Carolina’s 0-2 start, Panthers coach John Fox announced on Monday the secondround pick from Notre Dame will start Sunday’s game against Cincinnati. “I’ve dreamt it for my whole life, to be a starting quarterback in the National Football League,” said Clausen, who went unbeaten in high school and was one of the nation’s top college recruits before playing in the Notre Dame spotlight. “It’s real exciting, but at same time it’s a job. You’ve got to go prepare.” Clausen, whose stunning fall to 48th overall amid concerns about his attitude was one of the top stories of April’s draft, will take over the NFL’s 28th-rated offense as Carolina seeks to avoid a second straight 0-3 start. “We’ve just not been getting it done,” said Fox, facing his own uncertainty in the final year of his contract. “Jimmy is
a guy we think highly of. I thought he made the most of his opportunities Sunday. We’ll see how it goes this week.” Clausen’s promotion was accelerated by Moore’s dismal start to the season, a steep fall from his strong 4-1 finish as a starter last season that helped pave the way for seven-year starter Jake Delhomme’s release in March. “I’m not happy with it. I understand, I accept it. But it’s definitely not what you want to hear as a player,” Moore said. “I’ll be behind Jimmy as the weeks go on.” Moore threw three end zone interceptions and lost a fumble before leaving with a concussion in a Week 1 loss to the New York Giants. After being cleared to return Sunday, Moore threw an interception and lost another fumble before getting yanked early in the fourth quarter of the 20-7 loss to Tampa Bay. Moore has led Carolina on only two touchdown drives, completed just 41 percent of his passes and has a passer rating of 41.8. It comes after the Panthers became the first team in at least 14 years to not score an offensive touchdown in the preseason.
HIT AND RUN

T
his year’s American League Cy Young race appears to boil down to New York’s CC Sabathia, Tampa Bay’s David Price and Seattle’s Felix Hernandez. All three have posted great seasons and any of the three would be a worthy winner. Last year’s AL Cy Young winner is nowhere to be found in the conversation. Kansas City’s Zack Greinke, coming off a career year in which he went 16-8 with a 2.16 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 242 strikeouts, has slipped to a 9-12 record with a 3.90 ERA, 1.21
WHIP and 164 strikeouts through 30 starts this season. Interestingly, Greinke’s numbers this season closely mirror those for his seven-year big-league career – 58-65 with a 3.76 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and an average full season strikeout total of 180. Greinke could re-emerge as a Cy Young candidate in future seasons, but I doubt it. He pitches for a perennial second-division club and his 2009 season reminds me of the old “Sesame Street” song – “One of these
things is not like the other. One of these things just doesn’t belong.” Greinke’s season-by-season won-loss records are 8-11, 5-17, 1-0 (he missed most of 2006 campaign due to injury), 7-7, 13-10, 16-8 and 9-12 so far in 2010. But Zack Greinke is still a person in the Cy Young-winning neighborhood. And that’s pretty impressive company to keep.

WHO’S NEWS

Michael Vick is more likely to begin the game at wide receiver than quarterback this week. Eagles coach Andy Reid said Kevin Kolb will be the starting quarterback at Jacksonville on Sunday, despite a pair of impressive performances by Vick. Kolb has been cleared to practice after missing the second half of a season-opening loss to Green Bay and Sunday’s win over Detroit because of a concussion. So he’ll start unless he has a setback this week. Vick still will play in Philadelphia’s version of the wildcat offense. In the first play of the season, he lined up as a receiver. “I think it’s a beautiful situation,” Reid said Monday. “I look at it a lot differently than other people look at it. I’ve got two quarterbacks that can play at a very important position. I’m a happy guy about it. There are a lot of teams that don’t have good quarterbacks, ones that they feel like they can win with, and I feel like we can with both of those guys.” But unlike the Eagles, the Buffalo Bills are making the change because their starter played poorly. Ryan Fitzpatrick takes over for Trent Edwards when the Bills (02) visit the New England Patriots.

Wolfpackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confidence rising with 3-0 start
AP
Quarterback Russell Wilson and his N.C. State teammates carry an unbeaten record into their ACC opener on Saturday at defending league champion Georgia Tech.
RALEIGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; There might be a surprise contender in the Atlantic Coast Conference: N.C. State. After breezing through three nonconference games, the Wolfpack (3-0) have joined Boston College as the only unbeaten teams in the wide-open league. But now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to find out just how serious their candidacy is. They open ACC play this week at defending league champion Georgia Tech (2-1, 1-0). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Certainly, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot more confidence in this football team being 3-0,â&#x20AC;? coach Tom Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien said Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But when you look at the challenge staring us in the face, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to wear our arms out patting ourselves on the back.â&#x20AC;? With a quarterback who finally appears to have found his groove after
spending the summer playing pro baseball, and a defense that has stabilized after what seems like perpetually shaky play, this might shape up as the best N.C. State team that Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien has had since he arrived in 2007. For a change, the Wolfpack are off to a hot start. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve won their first three games for the first time since 2002, when eventual NFL first-round draft pick Philip Rivers was under center. Now comes the next challenge: Winning their ACC opener. At no point during Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brienâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first three seasons in Raleigh has N.C. State been above .500 in league play. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve started 0-3 in the conference â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or worse â&#x20AC;&#x201C; every year under him. The players say they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sense any overt extra pressure with the ACC season starting.

Tar Heels try not to focus on what mightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been BY BRIANA GORMAN ENTERPRISE DURHAM BUREAU
CHAPEL HILL â&#x20AC;&#x201C; North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates said Monday the Tar Heels are not in panic mode just yet after Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss to Georgia Tech dropped his team to 0-2. But the senior admitted
that UNC needs to win this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s matchup at Rutgers (3:30 p.m., ESPNU) to get a once promising season back on track. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We definitely have to get in the win column,â&#x20AC;? said Yates, who led UNC to a win over Rutgers in 2008. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been playing very well the first two weeks. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
lot of positives that we can take away from the games, but when you look at the overall, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re 02 right now and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to find a way to get a win.â&#x20AC;? The Tar Heels are hoping to avoid their first 0-3 start since 2003, although they still could be without a dozen players because of the ongoing investiga-
tions into agents and academics. UNC coach Butch Davis said there were no new updates on any of the 12 players who missed the Georgia Tech game and that defensive tackle Marvin Austin still is not practicing with the team. Defensive tackle Quinton Coples said the team is ap-
HPU unveils 2011 baseball schedule SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
HIGH POINT â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The 2011 High Point University baseball schedule was announced by head coach Craig Cozart on Monday. The Panthers will face five teams that made it to last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NCAA Tournament, including two teams that advanced to the Super Regionals. The Panthers will open the season with a four-game series at Troy in Troy, Ala beginning Friday Feb 18. After the road trip HPU will not leave the state of North Carolina again until May 13. The Panthers will face five teams that played in the 2010 NCAA Tournament. HPU will play a home-
and-home with Elon, last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SoCon Champion. There will be midweek games at ACC opponents North Carolina and Virginia. UVA advanced to the Super Regional, winning the first game before falling to Oklahoma. CAA Champion Virginia Commonwealth will visit Williard Stadium on March 16. Finally, HPU will host Big South Conference foe Coastal Carolina April 22-24. The Chanticleers also advanced to the Super Regional last year, falling to eventual champion South HPU will also play ACC opponents Duke and Wake Forest as well as Conference USA foe East Carolina. HPU topped ECU 13-12 last season at Williard Stadium
when the team was ranked No. 16. Big South Conference action begins March 18 when Presbyterian College comes to Williard Stadium. Winthrop, Liberty, Charleston Southern and Coastal Carolina also make the trip to High Point this season. The Panthers will travel to Gardner-Webb, UNC Asheville, Radford and VMI for conference games. The Panthers will be at VMI for the final weekend of the regular season. The Keydets will also host the 2011 Big South Conference Tournament beginning May 24. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As always we scheduled to challenge the team,â&#x20AC;? Cozart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am looking forward to another great season.â&#x20AC;?
Peyton, Colts beat up Eliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Giants INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Peyton Manning played the perfect big brother Sunday night. He shook hands with Eli before the game. He spent 10 minutes chatting with him in a hallway after the game, taking time to explain he still loved him. In between, Peyton and his teammates beat Eli up â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as older siblings tend to do. The four-time league MVP threw for 255 yards and three TDs, the defense pummeled Eli and Indianapolis rolled to a 38-14 victory over the Giants in Manning Bowl II. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just told him good game, I told him that I loved him, that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be fine and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d do our best to help
him out when we play all those NFC East teams,â&#x20AC;? Peyton said graciously. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all Eli could ask for following this debacle. The game was billed as a more even duel between the Super Bowlwinning quarterbacks than their first contest four years ago. Peyton won that one 26-21. But this game, unlike Manning Bowl I, was never close. While Peyton went 20-of-26 and racked up a passer rating of 145.5, Eli was 13-of-24 for 161 yards â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 85 of those coming on the two TDs. He also had one interception, three fumbles, two of which he lost, and
was sacked four times. It was so ugly, Peyton didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even bother to watch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really just kind of focused on the (Giants) defense and on our running game,â&#x20AC;? he said. For Indy, it was a remarkable and desperately needed turnaround from last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season-opener, when Peyton was the one getting pounded in Houston. The Texans twisted and turned Manning every which way, putting him on the ground 13 times. On Sunday, the Colts (1-1) reverted to their old form. Indy avoided its first 0-2 start since 1998, when Manning was a rookie and Eli was in high school.
proaching the Rutgers game as a must-win situation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve lost two games, but we still have an opportunity to be 10-2 and go to a bowl game and be very successful,â&#x20AC;? Coples said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We probably thought weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be undefeated with everybody back, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take whatever we got and go forward.â&#x20AC;?

Johnson falters at New Hampshire this track so I’m not sure it can help us anywhere else,” he said.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOUDON, N.H. – Jimmie Johnson’s drive for five started with a thud in New Hampshire. He kicked off another championship pursuit the way he did in 2006 — out of contention and answering questions about the pressure of playing catch-up. Johnson rebounded four years ago with a sensational hot streak that catapulted him to his first Cup title. With nine races left this season, he’ll need a similar sizzler down the stretch to be in the hunt again. Johnson finished a wayback-there 25th on Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. It was the worst finish for any Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship driver and dumped him from second to seventh in points. “We lost some control today, to say the least,” Johnson said. “We need to be spotless just to catch up and we might need some help. Again, there’s still nine races left.” The Hendrick Motorsports champion was a season-worst 39th to open the 2006 Chase at the same track. He had one win and four seconds over a five-race span in the Chase that let him bring home the championship. He’ll have to overcome another hiccup. “I know everybody wants some crazy answer and for me to have some foreshadowing for the future, but, hell, I don’t know what’s going to happen,” Johnson said. Johnson, who turned 35

Jimmie Johnson is handed his daughter Genevieve Marie from his wife, Chandra, before competing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H., on Sunday. Johnson finished 25th and fell to seventh place after the first Chase race. He trails leader Denny Hamlin by 92 points. on Friday, felt he had at least a top-five car until he spun after a late-race collision that collected a few other Chase drivers. He stayed in the race, but later battled a loose front right wheel. “Still nine races left,” Johnson said. “We did everything we could today and we’ll show up next weekend and do all we can then and hopefully rebound and gain some points.” If any driver can rebound, it’s certainly the shaggy-haired Johnson. He’s 92 points behind leader Denny Hamlin, the race runner-up. “Teams like the 48, they’re so good at rebounding,” Hendrick teammate Jeff Gordon said. “You can’t ever
count those guys out.” Up next for Johnson is Dover, where he was 16th earlier this year. He won both Dover races last year, then had the dominant car in the first race there this season until he was penalized for speeding on the final pit stop. Two races later, it’s off to Fontana, Calif., where Johnson recorded the first of his five victories this season. So, yeah, this Chase isn’t over. “He’s still the guy everybody’s chasing,” race winner Clint Bowyer said.
JUNIOR’S REBOUND Dale Earnhardt Jr. would have been a Chase contender instead of an afterthought with more
performances like his one at New Hampshire. Earnhardt showed flashes of his old Chase form, racing to a fourthplace finish Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Earnhardt had just his third top-five of the season. His only other two were at Daytona. He was a miserable, season-worst 34th last week at Richmond — his sixth finish of 22nd or worse over the last eight races before the Chase field was set. “This has just been a good track for me,” he said. “We can’t get too confident going into the next one.” Overconfidence has been the least of Earnhardt’s worries this season.
He’s battled a myriad of problems in the No. 88 and never found any type of consistency. He hasn’t made the 12-driver Chase field since 2008. His personal highlight was a win in the No. 3 car, his father’s old number, in the Nationwide Series. That result would never carry over into Sprint Cup. Earnhardt has vowed to go down swinging. He badly wants to win a race and post the kind of strong results with crew chief Lance McGrew that can build some confidence for next season. Earnhardt, who started 32nd, wasn’t ready to call Sunday’s strong run the beginning of a strong finish this season. “It’s kind of unique to
Jeff Gordon’s patience paid off at New Hampshire. Gordon and his team decided not to risk running out of fuel for a shot at a win like Tony Stewart did. The four-time Cup champion deftly bided his time, confident he could get into the right position when he needed to. It all paid off. Gordon finished sixth – another solid result in the steadiest of seasons for the veteran. Gordon has yet to win this season, but inched up from eighth to fifth in the points standings. “We can’t afford to have a 24th-place finish today,” Gordon said. That’s where Stewart finished when he ran out of gas with a lap left, ending his shot at the checkered flag. Gordon credited crew chief Steve Letarte for making all the right calls. “He didn’t want to risk the fuel. It just wasn’t worth it,” Gordon said. “When those guys didn’t make it on fuel, it definitely made us feel that much better about the call Steve made.” Gordon said this week that a poor finish at New Hampshire could all but end a team’s championship hopes. “I just don’t think you can win it here this weekend,” Gordon said. “You’ve got to make sure that you get everything out of your car and your team and we did that today.”

Panel: Recession ended in 2009 WASHINGTON (AP) – The longest recession the country has endured since World War II ended in June 2009, a group that dates the beginning and end of recessions declared Monday. The National Bureau of Economic Research, a panel of academic economists based in Cambridge, Mass., said the recession lasted 18 months. It started in December 2007 and ended in June 2009. Previously the longest postwar downturns were those in 1973-1975 and in 1981-1982. Both of those lasted 16 months. The decision makes official what many economists have believed for some time, that the recession ended in the summer of 2009. The economy

Verizon names wireless chief COO NEW YORK – Verizon Communications Inc. has named the head of its wireless division, Lowell C. McAdam, as its chief operating officer, setting him up as a successor to the CEO. The move announced Monday clarifies the succession at Verizon after it said a week ago that chief financial officer John Killian plans to retire at the end of the year. He has been at the job for a year and a half.
Oil prices rise on Fed speculation NEW YORK – Most energy contracts rose on the New York Mercantile Exchange, as traders speculated about whether the Federal Reserve will take action this week to boost the sluggish economy with programs to buy mortgage bonds and Treasurys. Benchmark crude for October delivery rose $1.36 to $75.02 a barrel in midday trading on the Nymex.
Wal-Mart to pursue smaller US stores NEW YORK – WalMart Stores Inc. is planning an aggressive push into urban markets with a new small format that’s a fraction of the size of its supercenters. The expansion is aimed at pumping up sluggish U.S. sales. The retailers is expected to spell out more details next month at a meeting with analysts. ENTERPRISE NEWS SERVICE REPORTS

started growing again in the July-to-September quarter of 2009, after a record four straight quarters of declines. Thus, the April-to-June quarter of 2009, marked the last quarter when the economy was shrinking. At that time, it contracted just 0.7 percent, after suffering through much deeper declines. That factored into the NBER’s decision to pinpoint the end of the recession in June. Any future downturn in the economy would now mark the start of a new recession, not the continuation of the December 2007 recession, NBER said. That’s important because if the economy starts shrinking again, it could mark the onset of a “double-dip”
recession. For many economists, the last time that happened was in 1981-82. Still, Americans are coping with 9.6 percent unemployment, scant wage gains, weak home values and the worst foreclosure market in decades. To make its determination, the NBER looks at figures that make up the nation’s gross domestic product, which measures the total value of goods and services produced within the United States. It also reviews incomes, employment and industrial activity. The economy lost 7.3 million jobs in the 2007-2009 recession, also the most in the post World War II period.
Homebuilder confidence remains low WASHINGTON (AP) – Homebuilders’ confidence in the housing market stayed this month at the lowest level in 18 months, and more worry that the traffic of potential buyers is falling. The National Association of Home Builders said Monday that its monthly index of builders’ sentiment was unchanged in September at 13. The index has now been at the lowest level since March 2009 for two straight months. Readings below 50 indicate negative sentiment about the market. The last time the index was above 50 was in April 2006. The index is broken into three separate readings. Foot traffic from prospective buyers, an indication of future sales, fell slightly. The index measuring expectations for the next six
months was unchanged. Current sales conditions were also unchanged. “Americans by and large just aren’t that excited about the prospect of buying a house,” wrote Mike Larson, real estate and interest rate analyst with Weiss Research. Sales of new and previously occupied homes fell this summer to the lowest level in more than a decade, despite the lowest mortgage rates in decades. And builders have had to cope with the worst foreclosure market since the 1930s, which is hardly close to ending. Lenders took back more homes in August than in any month since the start of the mortgage crisis, according to foreclosure listing service RealtyTrac Inc. That’s held down prices in much of the country.
IBM buying Netezza for $1.7 billion NEW YORK (AP) – IBM said Monday it has agreed to pay $1.7 billion for Netezza Corp., a company that helps businesses sort through data on corporate servers. Netezza’s software and hardware systems are designed to help companies use data about their businesses to make strategic decisions. The personnel department of a company, for instance, could use tools provided by Netezza to figure out how employee salaries stack up against the industry average.
IBM Corp. said it is offering $27 for each Netezza share, a 10 percent premium over Friday’s closing price of $24.60. Netezza shares climbed above the offered price in trading, rising $3.08, or 12.5 percent, to $27.68 aftre hiting a 52-week high of $27.73 earlier in the session. IBM shares rose $1 to $131.19. Netezza, which is based in Marlborough, Mass., with about 500 employees, lists Neiman Marcus, Time Warner Inc. and Virgin Media Inc. among its customers.

Stocks hit 4-month high NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks rose to their highest level in four months Monday as hopes grew for more action by the Federal Reserve to prop up the economy. The gains extended the market’s rally into a fourth consecutive week. Buying accelerated after the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, the market measure most often used by professional traders, broke through the high end of its recent range. Technical analysts see that as a bullish sign. The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 146 points to its highest close since May 13. Deal news also helped lift shares. IBM Corp. said it would buy data storage provider Netezza Corp. for about $1.7 billion in cash. Investors see acquisitions as a sign companies are more comfortable spending cash to expand, and suggests that other stocks may also become targets for buyers. The Fed meets Tuesday to discuss interest rates, and investors are hoping for a sign that the central bank might make more moves to keep rates low. “The Fed will hint at it, put it on the table, but not do anything,” predicted Brian Gendreau, a market strategist at Financial Network Investment Corp. Five stocks rose for every one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 3.9 billion shares.

Germany seeks Web protection BERLIN (AP) – Germany’s government urged the Internet industry on Monday to produce a voluntary data protection code to cover services like Google Inc.’s “Street View” mapping service. Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere met with representatives of Google and Apple Inc. among others after Google’s plans to introduce “Street View” in Germany ignited concerns in the privacy-conscious country over the extent to which people’s personal data are accessible on the Internet. De Maiziere said he proposed that the industry draw up a data protection code by Dec. 7, and “this met with approval.” The industry should commit to “data protection-friendly basic settings” and give information “in a user-friendly way” about the gathering and intended use of data, the minister said. A voluntary code could “make special legislative regulations unnecessary, at least in part,” de Maiziere said, although he
Safran to buy US biometrics firm PARIS (AP) – French defense contractor Safran SA said Monday it will pay $1.1 billion to buy Stamford, Connecticut-based security firm L-1 Identity Solutions Inc. to bolster its presence in the U.S. homeland security market. Paris-based Safran said the combination of L-1’s biometric and enterprise access businesses with its existing U.S. security business, Morpho, will have joint sales of about €1.4 bil-

The justice minister, Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger, said she could envision a mixture of a voluntary code and legislation. Google’s German unit
could not immediately be reached for comment. The company has said that it has committed itself to extensive measures to protect people’s privacy in Germany, where it allowed people eight weeks to request that images of their homes be deleted from “Street View.”
lion ($1.8 billion), with U.S. sales accounting for almost half of that. Safran is to offer $12 a share in cash for L1, whose stock is listed on the New York Stock exchange. The acquisition will help Safran increase its security business’ share of total revenue to 20 percent. Safran, which is owned 30 percent by the French government, also builds jet engines for both military and commercial aircraft as well as de-
fense equipment such as navigation systems and drones. L-1 is separately selling its intelligence services business to British defense contractor BAE Systems for $296 million, BAE said earlier Monday. BAE says the group is a provider of security and counter-threat capabilities to the U.S. government. Both deals are subject to approval by U.S. regulators.
GM recalls Cadillacs to replace glove box WASHINGTON (AP) – General Motors said Monday it was recalling more than 20,000 Cadillac CTS and CTS-V vehicles to replace a glove compartment box that could lead to leg injuries in a crash. GM says the recall involves nearly 5,000 all-wheel drive 2009 Ca-
dillac CTS and CTS-V models, and more than 15,000 vehicles from the 2010 model year. Tests conducted by the government found that a front seat passenger not wearing a seat belt could strike the glove box door and sustain leg injuries in a crash.
GM said all motorists should wear seat belts. The automaker plans to begin notifying owners of the recall next month. Dealers will replace the glove compartment assembly at no charge. Owners can contact Cadillac at (866) 9822339.
Discover profit falls due to year-ago settlement NEW YORK (AP) – Credit card company Discover Financial Inc. on Monday said its third-quarter net income fell, but profit in the year-earlier period received a big boost from a lawsuit settlement. Adjusted results showed improvement as its customers spent more with their cards and got better at making payments. The results topped expecta-
tions, helped by the company reducing its reserves for covering problem loans, and shares rose in early trading. Discover said net income attributable to common stockholders was $258.2 million, or 47 cents per share. That compares with $552.9 million, or $1.07 cents per share, last year, which included a $287 mil-
lion legal settlement related to antitrust litigation with Visa and Mastercard. Adjusted to remove that and other one-time items, the 2009 quarter profit was $131 million, or 25 cents per share. Revenue fell 7 percent to $1.71 billion from $1.84 billion a year ago. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters, on average, expected the Riverwoods, Ill., company to
post profit of 37 cents per share, on $1.66 billion revenue. Sales volume rose 5 percent to $24 billion. Total outstanding credit cards loans were $45.2 billion, down $2.9 billion from a year ago, a drop the company said was driven by lower balances with promotional interest rates and an increased payment rate.
Total loans ended the quarter at $50.1 billion, down 2 percent from a year ago. The decline in credit card loans was somewhat offset by an increase in student loans, Discover said. Discover last week said it was increasing its footprint in the student loan business by buying Student Loan Corp. from Citigroup Inc. for $600 million.
