Zeal, bedside manner defines surgeon’s career BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
Dr. Cedric Deang is a character. The Philippines-native who came to America in 1963 is known for his practical jokes and ability to make those around him laugh. For the last 33 years, Deang has been a general surgeon in Thomasville, helping people both with his hands and his outgoing personality. But, all good things eventually come to an end. Deang is retiring from Davidson Surgical Associates on Lexington Avenue
next month to spend more time with his family, leaving behind a legacy of caring, compassion and a true zest for life. “I have enjoyed working in Thomasville,” Deang said. “The people here are nice people and they are so friendly. They never showed anything negative about me being a foreigner. They joke and say that with my accent they can’t understand what I say. Sometimes they laugh at me and say, ‘What are you talking about?’ That made me comfortable and that’s one of
the reasons I’ve stayed here.” Deang came to the United States from the Philippines in 1963, and spent the next four years finishing his education with stints in New Jersey and Michigan, where he would meet his wife, Janette. He returned to his native country but political unrest caused him to leave in 1973. He originally planned to open a practice in West Virginia but a massive flood washed out his office, forcing a reconsideration, leading him towards the
Longtime surgeon Dr. Cedric Deang will retire after serving the community for more than 30 years. TIMES PHOTO/ ELIOT DUKE

Memorial service honors fallen officers BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer Thursday’s Peace Officer Memorial Service at Thomasville Police Department took on different meanings to those in attendance. With each passing candle or white carnation being placed at the base of the bronze memorial statue in front of TPD, officers from across the county, both past and present, reflected on those who gave their lives in the line of duty. For new Thomasville Police Chief Jeff Insley, the day took on new meaning following Dec.

The two worked together at High Point Police Department, and Twyman’s death dealt Insley a harsh reminder of the dangers a police officer faces on a daily basis. “[Twyman] was my zone partner when I was in High Point,” Insley said. “We lost her a few years ago, and ever since then this has had a little different meaning for me because I lost someone close. “Sometimes we get caught up in remembering those who have served, but I also want to honor and recognize those currently serving.

“Spring is here! Why does my heart go dancing? I’ll tell you why! Recently, I was outside working in my flower garden when my neighbor Kemp Tobin saw me and came up to help me. I have some good neighbors, Kemp and Sue, Butch and Dustin, and my good friends Tien and Jerry My nephew Gary and niece Hollie and, of course, my older brothers Roy and Doug give me lots of advice on how thing’s should be done and should look. Then there’s my 8-yearold nephew, Balmir, following me around asking me, “Uncle Bill, What are you doing?� They all try to help Uncle Bill with yard work at times, because they all know I can be a danger to myself and others! Examples of my experiences working outside include tripping over a garden hose, thus causing me to fall down a deep bank in front of my house, which I call “ the bank from hell,� and landing on the pavement
in the road, while my sister, Laurastine, stands in the front room doorway screaming bloody murder! I am very surprised I have not given her a heart attack! I also am surprised I have not had a heart attack myself ! Then there’s getting on my riding lawn mower placing it in the wrong gear and flying thru the yard looking like Evel Knievel and winding up hitting a tree full force ahead. With smoke flying everywhere, I emerged and crawled back to the house on all fours, with my riding mower a total loss, and the place looking like a war- zone with mass casualitys! When I get my weed eater out, the thing goes wild and I end up cutting down all of my flowers and then wonder what happened? Even walking along very innocently looking at something, I walk right into a tree, leaving a big knot on my forehead that looks like I had been in a fist fight! Getting my garden hoe out and chopping on my foot and toes and doing a little dance afterward. I’ve even got my foot caught in a drainage pipe which runs under my driveway, and had to have my sister to call the Thomasville Resue Squad to get me out. Or when I got my hedge clippers out to cut my hedges and it turned out looking like something from a modern art show — you don’t know exactly what you are looking at.
I once turned over my heavy concrete birdbath and it landed on my wheelbarrow, crushing it like a tin can and leaving my once beartiful birdbath just in thousands of pieces. There was the time I had my push mower out mowing, and had my cell phone talking with my friend and sweetheart, Gladys, when suddenly without any warning, I dropped my phone ran over it with the mower Pieces of plastic flew thru the air with the greatest of ease. Well, then I decided it was just not my day, so I went to my outside swing sat down and began to swing. All of a sudden the swing broke throwing me to the ground! There I was, sprawled out all over the ground, and I am allergic to grass. At this point, I began to break out in hives and the only thing for me to do was to say The Lord’s Prayer. My nephew looked down at me and said, “Uncle Bill, what are you doing down there?� I said, “Balmir, I am praying.
“You want me to help?� he asked. “Sure,� I said. “Just lay down here together with me and we will pray!� He began by placing his hands together looking into the blue sky and said his prayer: “Dear Lord, please make Uncle Bill go into the house before he gets hurted real, real bad! Amen.� I am so pleased to have an Internal Medicine Surgeon and an Orthopedic doctor that I can rely on. I really use them in the spring and the summer. I think what I am going to do is have a big flashing sign made that says, “Caution: Uncle Bill is doing yard work! run for your life!� and place it in my front yard. I’m sure it’s quite a show to watch and would make for a great spot on Saturday Night Live. If only they would cast me, I could make America laugh out loud! I can’t help but to laugh at myself !

TAX-FREE INCOME FOR YOUR RETIREMENT Tax-free income is the best gift you can give yourself at retirement. Converting to a Roth IRA from a traditional IRA allows for tax-free accumulation as well as tax-free withdrawals in retirement â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which means you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry as much about what income tax rates will be in the future. There are tax considerations and other factors that determine whether converting to a Roth IRA is right for you. And changes set for 2010 will eliminate the $100,000 modiďŹ ed adjusted gross income (MAGI) limit, which means anyone can convert to a Roth IRA. Call today to schedule an appointment to learn more. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll discuss your retirement goals to help determine if a Roth IRA makes sense for you. Edward Jones, its employees and ďŹ nancial advisors do not provide tax or legal advice.

The silly season VIEWPOINT
SUSAN ESTRICH Syndicated Columnist I’d like to believe it’s the arrival of spring or maybe just the general decline in civility and common sense that seems to always be in the air in Washington. But it’s hard to avoid the conclusion that the reaction to the nomination of Elena Kagan to the U.S. Supreme Court has been a study in the sex discrimination that she has spent her career beating back. Enough with the pictures, already. What difference does it make if she is photogenic? Is Anthony Kennedy photogenic? Does Samuel Alito have style? Enough with the innuendo and the denials of the hints about her sexuality -- the suggestion and then denial that her stance with a bat and ball proves something other than that she likes to hit long and hard. David Souter lived with his mother. Hello. He was a fine justice. Did we test him on the dance floor or look for pictures of him going to the opera? Who knows, and who cares? It’s absurd, and it’s insulting. It’s desperate, and it’s hypocritical. Politics is full of closeted individuals, including Republicans who vote consistently against equal rights for people who share their sexual orientation, claiming that they’re serving the will of their constituents, not to mention protecting their seats. Only this year, a prominent Republican California state senator was forced to “come out” after years of voting against equal rights when he was stopped for DUI after spending the evening in a gay bar. I wish we lived in a world in which public officials felt free to sleep with whomever they wanted without fear of being judged by the media or their constituents on that basis.
But campaigns of innuendo are beneath the dignity of us all. I don’t care about Elena Kagan’s private life. That’s why it’s called private. No one has suggested that she has ever done anything in her life that could compromise her fitness to sit on the court, raise questions about her judgment or make her vulnerable to blackmail from enemies foreign or domestic. Indeed, she’s been criticized for living too careful a life. But if she hadn’t, imagine what they -- whoever “they” are -- would be saying about her. Before my conservative friends jump all over me, let me be clear: I’m not making a partisan point here. Both sides, or at least both extremes, are perfectly capable of using whatever mud they can find or manufacture to defeat someone they fear will vote against them. The reason conservatives are throwing the mud this time is because they’re convinced that even if Kagan isn’t quite as liberal as some on my side would hope, she’s not as conservative as they would prefer. Of course she isn’t. Barack Obama won the election. He is entitled to pick judges and justices who agree with him -- and with the voters who put him in office. If folks don’t like that, vote for someone else next time. But don’t try to pillory a smart, decent and honorable woman who will be serving on this nation’s high court for, God willing, many decades to come. Ultimately, that’s the end game. The mud being tossed at Kagan will not cost her confirmation. I have no doubt that this smart and, yes, very careful woman will take her place on the court. The questions are how much dirt will she have to clean off herself once she does, how much will stick however unfairly, and what message does all of this send to decent people who would like to serve their country but lack the thick skin and the perfect past to face this kind of assault. In Kagan’s case, it smacks of sexism. But men face it, too. Frankly, either way, it stinks.

Congress accelerates out of control BY STEVE CHAPMAN Syndicated Columnist When the news broke about alleged safety defects in Toyota vehicles, official Washington was appalled. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood accused the company of being “safety deaf ” and said “they have a very bad business model.” Then there was the reaction from customers, the very people whose lives and safety are at stake every time they get in a car. In the first four months of this year, Toyota’s U.S. sales did not fall, as you might expect. They rose by 12 percent. Sticky gas pedals, sudden acceleration, alleged violations of the law, federal fines, multiple recalls — none of them sent Americans fleeing in panic. It’s true that the Japanese automaker has had to offer more sales incentives than it used to — $2,498 per vehicle in April. But that only shows everything is negotiable to car buyers. “This vehicle may speed dangerously out of control and kill me without warning?” they say. “OK, but I’m not paying sticker.” This surprising development might cause elected officials to reconsider the wisdom of getting in between automakers and consumers when it comes to safety standards. But no such luck. Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., who chairs the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., have introduced a bill to impose new federal mandates on top of the existing ones. Waxman attests that it “may be the most important vehicle safety bill in a generation.” It would demand brakes that can stop a car even if the accelerator is stuck, require a minimum stop-
ping distance and create rules for vehicle electronics. Automakers would have to install event data recorders, like the black boxes on airlines, to provide information about accidents. Congress may also impose a vehicle fee to pay for federal regulatory activities. Toyota, like any human institution, has made its share of mistakes, some of them possibly inexcusable. But if it were truly deaf to safety, its vehicles would not rank better than average in driver death rates. It’s hard to see how a bad business model could have made Toyota the largest producer of cars — or, as a 2008 survey found, the most respected company on the planet. You would never know from Waxman and Rush that the government is not the main source of auto safety improvements. Profit-making corporations actually have a strong business interest in keeping their customers alive. They can also make money by offering products that reduce rather than maximize the buyer’s chances of dying in a fiery crash. Just as there are markets for auto style, power, versatility, luxury and sportiness, there is a market for safety. A lot of advances were not forced on a callous industry by Washington, as Dave McCurdy, president of the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers told Waxman’s committee. He reminded members that “automakers have developed many of today’s significant safety innovations without a government mandate, including anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control (ESC), adaptive headlights, side airbags and curtains, front passenger safety belt reminder systems and advanced collision avoidance
features like lane departure warning, blind spot monitors and adaptive cruise control.” Those improvements are among the reasons that last year, the number of traffic deaths was the lowest since 1954 — even though there are twice as many drivers, traveling four times as many miles, as there were back then. If federal regulators have insufficient tools to prevent safety defects, as the legislation presumes, this dramatic improvement must be due to something other than government vigilance. That, in turn, suggests that when it comes to reducing highway bloodshed, we are better off relying on consumer demand and competition among carmakers. It calls for humility on the part of federal officials. But humility is not the prevailing mood in Washington. Between Toyota’s missteps and federal measures to help the industry, politicians are feeling even bossier than usual. What they are inclined to forget is that mandatory vehicle improvements don’t come free. Those black boxes, for example, could cost hundreds or thousands of dollars apiece. New cars have more safety features than older ones, so someone who trades in an old vehicle is likely to increase her life expectancy. Regulations that raise the price of a new car shut some buyers out of the market. So tougher federal rules may have the perverse effect of leading to more traffic fatalities. If so, don’t expect Congress to hold a hearing. Steve Chapman blogs daily at newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/steve_chapman.

Letters to the Editor To the Editor It has been a little over a week since the election and I would like to take a few words to express my gratitude to my family and friends for their prayers and support. Meeting many new friends across the county (I needed to meet about 1,500 more) made this an enjoyable experience. I had a lot of fun throughout the campaign (even though election night was bit of a downer); it was a journey that taught me humility, what real friendship was about and how to learn from my mistakes. (I made a few) Many thanks to my wife

They made a much larger sacrifice than I. Special thanks go to each of you that called and e-mailed the days after the election offering up very kind words and encouragement. Words can never express how much you mean to me and my family and the uplifting you provided. Congratulations are in order for the winners and their families. A well-organized effort. I offer you my prayers

SERVICE From page A1 guys come in every day not knowing if they’re going home or not, and they do a good job. I’m proud of them. It’s a special day because you remember the ones that made the ultimate sacrifice — the thing you hope you never have to deal with.” Davidson County Sheriff David Grice faced the reality early in his career. As a student at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, a classmate of Grice’s working for the Mecklenberg Sheriff ’s Office lost his life while conducting a raid. Grice said he has known five officers who have been killed on duty, and tributes to their memory ensures their sacrifice will never be forgotten. “One day he was there and next he was gone,” said Grice of his friend. “This keeps the memory of the officers who have served with us alive.” Former Thomasville Police Chief Don Truell investigated the last case involving a local police officer killed in the line of duty. On Jan 8, 1977, officers R.G. Crawford and Dennis Spinnett responded to a domestic violence call on Douglas Drive
FROM PAGE A1 and never returned. Truell said TPD, with the help of surrounding law enforcement agencies, worked tirelessly resolving the case. More than 30 years later, Truell can still recount those fateful days vividly. “That was the last case I investigated,” Truell said. “It was the Saturday night before the Super Bowl. I remember what I saw when I walked in there. I came in that night around 10 p.m. and got home three days later because we stayed on that case. We missed the family at the funeral home because we were giving polygraphs tests to two suspects. A police department is a family, it really is. I think it’s good that we honor these people.” Representatives from TPD, DCSO, Lexington Police Department, Denton Police Department and the State Highway Patrol all paid their respects during the ceremony, showing the solidarity that is so vital in keeping a community safe. “The partnership and being able to have all these guys working together, I think is one of things we’re blessed with in Davidson County,” said Insley. “It’s a great thing to have.” Grice agreed.

Officers salute the police memorial, which is engraved with the names of local fallen officers. “We work real well together and we’re real proud of it,” Grice said. “It’s a great way to do things. We share resources and we have all this extra support if we need it in the middle of the night. It’s good to know

A 50/50 drawing, a raffle and a silent auction will be held, with awards given away at about 3 p.m. Prizes include furniture, jewelry and racing memorabilia. While most who attend the car shows happen to be car enthusiasts, Kathy Berrier, director of financial development at the home, said the community atmosphere created by the extra activities also provides a draw. “There are so many car events today — every weekend there will be two or three or five,” she said. “I think they enjoy the fellowship as much as anything, so if you can encourage that, you have a successful show.” Children from the home also will be at the event, helping to make snow cones, hold a bake sale and do face paint. “We try to keep them involved as much as possible with the people who support the home,” Berrier said. “It gives them the opportunity to practice social skills.” Riehs said that participation in community events also lets the

In June of 1977, Deang packed up and moved to Thomasville, the place where he raised his three children and developed a reputation for being a doctor who cared about his patients, regardless of money. All three children graduated from Thomasville High School, but two of them live in other states with his grandchildren, making the decision to retire a pretty easy one for the soon-to-be 69 year old. “I see them maybe once year and that’s not to cool,” said Deang. “It’s time to quit. I’m going to try and visit them and do things at home. I like doing outside things and I’m going to enjoy it. I still enjoy working as a surgeon, but it’s just time to do something else.” Joan Hedrick may know

thing from clothing and personal items for the kids to extra activities like field trips at school or summer activities like the water park. The children’s home is a nonprofit organization that has been in operation since 1928. Now serving not just orphans but children who have been taken out of their natural homes due to neglect or abuse, the home houses children ages 8 to 19. “A lot of times the teenagers do better in a group setting,” Berrier said. “They acclimate better. And a lot of times it’s harder to find foster homes for the older kids.” The children live in cottages on the campus with about five or six other kids and house parents. “They try to live as normal a family life as possible,” Berrier said. “We try to create a home for them.” As a member of the Junior Order, the paternal organization that founded the home, Riehs has been involved with the organization for years and has worked hard to help them find the funds to operate. “I’ve been helping there since I was 16,” he said. “If I can help keep a kid off of drugs and in school or help somebody that’s less fortunate than I am, then that’s what keeps me involved. They’re just dear to my heart, anything that I can do to help them succeed in life.”

I’m proud and honored to have worked with him.” Deang said he will miss the rush of surgery and the fulfillment of seeing a patient who recovered thanks to one of his procedures. In 2003, Thomasville Medical Center presented Deang with some unusual awards that speak to his personality. Deang was named the friendliest, most reliable, most respected by his peers, best sense of humor and best joke teller by TMC, in addition to Physician of the Year.
Deang was born in Manilla in 1941 and his father died during the Death March in World War II. He graduated from Far East University on the day John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963. Even though he’s retiring, Deang said he doesn’t plan of being a stranger. He will drop in from time to time and visit all those people whose lives he impacted. Hedrick will just make sure she knows where her purse is before her old boss leaves. Some thing’s won’t ever change. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.

RELIGION
Engaging in the ‘right’ kind of risky behavior KEEPING THE FAITH
DOUG CREAMER Guest Columnist
Last week my wife and I saw some high school students while we were eating dinner at a restaurant. The students were dressed in gowns and tuxes, obviously enjoying a nice meal before heading over to their prom. It was fun to see them looking so grown up. Several of the girls had elaborate hairstyles and a couple of the guys were wearing cowboy hats. The students at East Davidson will be having
their prom in less than two weeks. There hasn’t been that much buzz about things yet, but by the time next week rolls around things will be crazy. This will be my 25th prom. It is always hard for me to believe how much money these kids spend for that one night. Between the hair and the clothes and the expensive dinners, the students will certainly be giving the economy a shot in the arm. Every year there is a strong push on the behalf of the teachers and administrators to encourage the students not to participate in risky behavior. One year a principal brought in a casket and made the seniors walk in front of it. He challenged the students not to need one after prom. At East Davidson, we show a video about some students who get in a serious car accident after prom.
For many years I have shown a Bill Cosby video about drinking and drug use. We all laugh hard while it is on, but then I sit down and have a serious discussion with the students afterwards. I talk about my choices and some of the choices my high school friends made. At the end, I ask the students to make wise choices. There are so many difficult choices that the students face about their special night. As a teacher, I want them to have fun, but I want them to avoid risky behavior. It’s tempting to speed or play around in their cars. I know that most of them will be texting each other, so I hope they won’t be doing that while they are driving. Kids like to have fun and do crazy things; I just want them to be safe because it only takes a few seconds to turn a fun evening into a sad and tragic one.
What I really hope and pray is that the students will avoid the “big three.” Prom can be such a wonderful evening for the families and the two young adults as they go out on such a special evening. I do not understand why students choose to include drugs and alcohol on such a special evening. I wish all the students had enough character to choose not to use drugs or drink alcohol. Some will; I just hope their bad choice doesn’t ruin that very special night. I also wish the students would choose not to have sex because so few of them understand how that choice can alter the destiny of their lives. There is some risky behavior that I wish every student and every reader of this column would participate in. It’s a very risky thing to share your faith with others. We have to
become vulnerable and risk rejection. When we are willing to share our faith with others the outcome may change the eternal destination of the listener. We never know the power our words carry as we share our faith with others. Another risky behavior we all need to participate in is sharing our personal testimony with others. When we tell others how having a personal relationship with God has changed us, we have the power to affect others perception of God. No one can take your personal experiences away from you or diminish the power they have in your life. Our personal experiences with God offer hard evidence of His existence and the depth of His love and concern for mankind. People need to hear and know that God loves them and when they
hear and see the impact on your life they will want it for themselves. I want to encourage you to participate in the risky behavior of sharing your personal testimony and your faith with others. There are so many people in your daily life who need to be encouraged and reminded that God loves them. They need to know that God cares about every detail of their lives. They need to know that their life matters to God and that He has a plan, a destiny for them to fulfill. It’s risky behavior, but there is a great reward in heaven for everyone who participates in it.

NCHSAA State Playoffs (Rd. 2) TBD SOFTBALL
Sports Editor SOUTHMONT — Judging by the regular season results when East Davidson and Central Davidson played each other, Wednesday’s Central Carolina Conference tournament championship on paper looked like it would be a Spartan victory lap. A rout never developed. Poised to beat the three-time defending state champions, East did everything it could to push a run across against the mighty Spartans. Twice they had a runner on third, but the big hit never came. Central scored the only run of the game on a weakly hit infield single in the fourth, taking a heartstopping 1-0

win to claim the title. “You saw a great softball game between two great teams,” said EDHS coach Greg Fowler. “Central made the plays and we battled and battled. We hit the ball hard a couple of times, and if it is a foot either way, you never know. I am proud of my bunch.” Central coach Gene Poindexter expected nothing different than the close game his team got. “They know us and we know them, and it is always tough that third time you play,” he said. With seeding for next week’s state playoffs already decided, the game Wednesday was for pride alone. Though Central was the winner on this night, in the

Ledford makes run at SWR but comes up short BY MEGAN CROTTY Courier-Tribune ASHEBORO — After Thursday’s Mid-Piedmont Conference championship, Southwestern Randolph varsity softball coach Ricky Martinez said he wished Ledford all the best in the state tournament, but he was glad the Cougars didn’t have to play them again. Top-seeded Southwestern Randolph topped the No. 3 Panthers 6-3 for the crown at Southwestern Randolph High School. It wasn’t easy. “This is the type of game you want to play to get ready for state,” Martinez said.
The Cougars (18-4) jumped to a 4-0 lead after three innings thanks to five hits and two costly Panther errors. After seeing just one baserunner in the first three innings, Ledford started its comeback, scoring a run on two hits in the top of the fourth. Southwestern Randolph took a 5-1 lead in the fifth, scoring a run on two errors, but still left two baserunners stranded. The Panthers put runners on second and third on a hit batter, a single and a wild pitch. Meg Everhart lined a shot to

On paper, Thomasville High School’s addition of Dickie Cline to the football program seems to be a touchdown. Cline’s history of winning and player development, along with 32 years of coaching experience, appear to be a great fit for the Bulldogs. On the field, Cline’s impact will undoubtedly be noticed on Friday nights with each touchdown and THS victory. The Bulldogs have a history of success and Cline’s presence should do nothing but continue that tradition. What about off the field? On Wednesday, a friend told me he thought THS was getting an upgrade with Cline, who is coming to the Chair City because assistant coach Sam Captain is leaving for a new job in Georgia. On paper, it’s easy to see it that way, especially when it comes to a coach with more than 200 wins and a proven offensive mind. I don’t see it that way. This is nothing against Coach Cline. I talked with him and nothing about our conversation suggested he wouldn’t do just great running the Bulldogs’ offense. This is about losing a coach like Sam Captain. For the past three-plus years, I have worked with Captain covering THS athletics. In doing so, I have been afforded the opportunity to see just how much work this man put in off the field, working with Bulldog athletes hoping to do more with their lives than just score touchdowns or sack a quarterback. Not every studentathlete goes on to star at a big-time college and even fewer make a nickel playing sports. Once the nights of playing under the lights are over, these kids, for the most part, go onto to ordinary lives, much like the rest of us. THS takes a lot of heat when it comes to its athletes. People cry to the hills whenever a former Bulldog makes a mistake in life, blaming whoever they can for not caring about the players beyond the field of play. The truth is, THS athletes tend to

Off season dog training LIFE WITH LARRY
DICK JONES Outdoor Columnist We walked into the car wash and the lady at the counter smiled when she saw Larry. Before I spoke, she said, “I can tell by looking at him, he’s a sweet dog.” We were at the Twin Oaks Car Wash and I was having my truck washed to do a video on a set of seat covers I was doing a product review on. I was walking Larry on heel without a leash since there were no other customers in the facility. Larry stood at my side while I paid and I sat down in the waiting area with him sitting at my right. “Can I pet him?” the lady asked. By the time the truck was ready, Larry had a series of admirers who were impressed with his manners. We still have a long way to go. At this point, Larry is a reasonably well trained dog. He still has attention span problems, mostly relating to his age, and could certainly use more control when other dogs are present in a hunting situation. So, what do we do now that hunting season is over and we have a five month hiatus? Plenty. There are always refinements to work on and many will eventually apply to hunting situations. On a daily basis, we do some yard work. This can consist of nothing more than me putting him on stay and walking into the house to watch from the window. If he moves off his position, I come out and correct him. Remember that time is a relative thing to a dog, they have no internal clock so a
reasonably short exercise like this done a couple of times a day will go a long way in developing his habit to stay where he’s put. If you feel like you have the stay thing down pat, add a distraction like someone he likes showing up around the corner. Another aspect that can always use more refinement is in heeling. That’s a simple training drill that can accompany any walk you take. With Larry, I walk with him on heel for a few minutes, then release him and give him a chance to sniff around. I then call him back to heel for another period. This can be done off leash if the area’s safe, or on a Flexleash if I need more control. The repetition of changing from heel to being released will reinforce the training and he’s much less likely to get bored. It also reinforces the “come” command. Although hot weather can be a limiting factor, we also work on socialization as we did at the car wash. I take him to the post office, the bank, and other places where I’ve made arrangements for him to be allowed. Depending on the situation, I give him more or less freedom. When I go places where I know everyone and the public isn’t involved, I take him without a leash and put him in different places on stay while I walk away. Remember, though, that you should never allow your dog to be off leash anywhere near traffic unless you have complete control. All it takes is a cat running by and you could lose your dog to a car. When dogs are in public places, they get all kinds of different responses. Most folks love dogs but there are exceptions. In Larry’s case, he’s a large intimidating dog and has the potential to frighten someone who’s uncomfortable around dogs. Watch the expressions of strangers and tighten up on the leash if you notice someone who looks
apprehensive. Fear of dogs is a real thing and it affects more people than you might think. You owe it to the people around you to be sure you’re not training your dog at the expense of their comfort. On the other hand, most people we encounter want to pet Larry and almost all ask permission. I tell them that the purpose of having Larry in this environment is for his training and that petting is OK, but I may need to correct him during the petting. This way, if Larry jumps or does something that’s not acceptable, I can correct him without them feeling guilty. I would normally do this with his training collar with a simple beep but I explain to them what I’m doing and why. To further develop his skills in summer, Larry and I do simple retrieving exercises in the yard, working on holding until I release him, retrieving multiple objects in the sequence I want, and following hand signals. These are short, fun, sessions and when he appears to get bored or isn’t sharp, I simply switch over to doing something else. We have plenty of time, provided we work a little on training every day. Much depends on what you want from your dog and you should realistically decide that before you get too far in training. For most dog owners, simply having
a dog that comes when called, walks on a leash without tugging and straying, and stays put when he’s told is all that’s needed. Managing being around a lot of people and handling traveling well might be other objectives. Of course, this is an outdoor column and hunting is certainly a big part of Larry’s life. Getting the social basics down will enhance the training for hunting applications whether you have a beagle or a pointer. I made the intentional decision to not put Larry through the hunt test regimen before I went to Michigan to pick him up. My desire was to have a hunting dog who would also be a companion and assist me in my media work. I don’t know how much Larry will learn in his lifetime, but we’re having fun and that’s what owning a dog is about. Dick Jones is a freelance writer living in High Point. Larry is a 2-year-old Fox Red Labrador who will hunt as well as do personal appearances with Dick. Dick and Larry give informative and humorous speeches for groups and can MC your outdoor event or help your church or youth organization with fundraising.

BRINGING THE BACKHAND Former Thomasville High School tennis player John Cagle prepares to return a backhand shot against his opponent.
FALLS From page B1 long run, a game like this may benefit the Golden Eagles more. “There are not many better teams in the state in 2-A than right over there,” said Fowler. “We needed this for our confidence to know we can play with a team like this. I could not be any more proud of my team even though we lost 1-0.” East had a golden opportunity right off the bat in the first inning when leadoff hitter Natalie Naturile doubled against Central pitcher Emma Comer. A sacrifice bunt by Paige Byrd moved her to third, setting the table for the meat of the order. Comer was able to force two infield grounders to get the outs she needed, though, foiling the early scoring chance. East’s Spencer Embler was in fine form in the circle through the first three innings, facing the minimum and keeping quiet a sound Central lineup. After the Golden Eagles let a second scoring chance fizzle out in the fourth, Central scratched for what proved to be the winning run. Leadoff Kara Lohr was being played fairly shallow by the East defense, and she made them pay dearly. She ripped a triple to the gap in left-center, leaving the Spartans 60 feet away from scoring.
STUD From page B1 past two seasons, Milliner concluded his senior season averaging 22 ppg., six assists and five rebounds. “Zeb can drive to the basket, knock down the 3 and is a tenacious defender,” said Ridge. “He has great vision and makes his teammates better. His ability to attack and defend multiple positions will allow us to pressure even more than we have in the past.”
“She has the capability of poking one out in the gap,” said Poindexter. “She is not a typical slapper, but she can poke it. That is the kind of thing that has to happen in order to win.” After a 1-3 putout, the ever so dangerous Nicole Perry stepped in. Getting a second life after a dropped foul ball, she reached out and just made contact on a soft grounder she would beat out. In came Lohr with the run, but CDHS was not done just yet. Perry would move to third on a steal and wild pitch and Carly Tysinger pulled into second on a walk and wild pitch, setting up a second and third situation with only one out. Embler kept her composure getting the final two outs, keeping the Golden Eagles within striking distance. Embler received high praise from Poindexter afterwards. “She is the kind of pitcher that has made us a better team through her career,” he said. “She comes to play every night and I knew she was going to bring her ‘A’ game.” East had its last great scoring chance in the sixth with Naturile singling, then moving to second on another Byrd sacrifice. A wild pitch moved her to third with still only one out, and the Golden Eagles had what they wanted with Embler at the plate. The senior hit a laser to third that was destined for the out-
Providence Grove is one of the newer schools in the area, but have been a force on the hardwood in basketball. Milliner comes from a winning program and that is the type of players Ridge likes to go after. “He played on a high school team that won a lot of games, so he already knows how to win,” said Ridge. “We love winners, and we think he can help us compete for hopefully another regional and district championship, and hopefully eventually a national championship.”
field, but Perry snagged it and Naturile dove back into third. Morgan Gallimore then sent a ball in the direction of Perry, but that was scooped up and thrown on to first to end the inning. Comer completed the four-hit shutout in the seventh to secure another conference tournament for the Spartans. East (14-7) will host the Southern Piedmont No. 3 team Tuesday.

Vickers to miss Dover race while in hospital Red Bull Racing Team officials announced Thursday that due to a recent diagnosis of a medical condition, Brian Vickers will not compete in this weekend’s NASCAR racing activities at Dover International Speedway. Vickers, age 26, driver of the No. 83 Red Bull Toyota, was hospitalized Wednesday evening and continues to undergo testing and further evaluation. Casey Mears has been selected to drive for the team this weekend.
“It is unfortunate that I will not be able to participate in the Dover race. Casey is a good friend of mine, and I know he will do his best for the No. 83 team this weekend,” said Vickers. “Our main concern right now is with Brian and his health and recovery”, said Jay Frye, RBRT General Manager and Vice President. “All things are looking good at the moment; this is just a minor setback. We appreciate Casey filling in this weekend and know he will represent the team well.”

left field, driving in a run, and Mel Green followed with a groundout to first that sent another runner to home, cutting the Cougars’ lead to two. With two outs, Brittany Williams hit a grounder up the middle, putting runners on the corners and the go-ahead run at the plate in Sara Persiani. The outfielder grounded out to Southwestern Randolph pitcher Julia Callicutt, ending the Panther threat. The Cougars scored one more run in the top of the sixth on two Ledford errors, but still left two runners on base. Up by three heading into the top of the seventh, Callicutt walked the first batter — her only walk of the game — but struck out the next. Ledford second baseman Jenn Stilley then popped a shot over Callicutt. Second baseman Victoria Hunt made a diving grab and then tossed the ball to first baseman Sloane King to end the game on a double play. “I figured I might as well dive for it,” Hunt said. “I thought, ‘Thank goodness I caught it.’ ... They started putting the bat on the ball; we didn’t give up.” Callicutt finished the game giving up three runs on seven hits with six strikeouts and one walk. Her defense didn’t have any errors behind her. “This is the third time they’ve seen me,” she said, “so they’re getting a little used to me. It’s very comforting to have this defense behind me. No pitcher is perfect.” At the plate, Cynthia Hayes went 2-for-4, reaching twice on errors, with two runs scored and a stolen base. Kaylee King went 2-for-2 with a run scored and a stolen base, and Kelsey Hoover added a double and two RBIs. Erin Billups went 1-for-1 with two walks and two runs scored. For Ledford (17-8), Kristen Murphy took the loss, allowing six runs on six hits with seven strikeouts and three walks. In all, the Panthers committed seven errors. “Murphy’s a great pitcher,” Martinez said. “She has awesome changeups and offspeed pitches.” Ashley Best went 2for-3 with a run scored, while Everhart went 2for-3 with a double, a run scored and an RBI. Williams went 2-for-3, while Green added a hit and two RBIs.

Saturday, May 15, 2010 – Thomasville Times – B5
SPORTS CAPTAIN From page B1 need more guidance, as some of them come from difficult situations at home. THS is a raciallymixed public school where not every student gets what they need in order to be successful. People like Sam Captain help bridge that gap, and that’s why Thomasville will miss him more than it realizes. Captain is old school, and anyone who has been to a Bulldog practice knows that he believes in tough love. He’s not afraid to tell someone they screwed up, but he is equally quick to point out when they’ve done something right. He understands his players — their backgrounds, their family situation and what they’re facing after high school. Whenever I hear a story about a Thomasville player who didn’t take advantage of his opportunities, I think of someone like Dujuan Ingram, a kid who did make the most of his chance to do something meaningful with his life. A chance that Sam Captain played a key role in making available. For the past six years, THS student-athletes have had Captain around, making phone calls to colleges for them or staying on top of them when it comes to grades. His open-door policy and willingness to care helped pave the way for numerous athletes to achieve their dreams of playing in college while earning a degree that would ensure their adulthood days wouldn’t be spent on the streets of Thomasville. It should come as no surprise that the friend who told me THS was getting an upgrade with Cline was Captain. That may or not be true when it comes to Xs and Os or wins and losses — onthe-field results will dictate that —but I find the statement hard to believe once the Friday night lights are turned off. Sam Captain meant more to THS football than most people know or that he would want to know. Winning a state championship is an easy way to rate a coach’s success. Seeing players five or 10 years after graduation is another.

Dickie Cline may be the answer for the Bulldogs on the field, but the legendary coach has big shoes to fill off it. You just don’t replace a coach like Captain, at least not in Thomasville, and I feel those close to the program will see the same thing. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@ tvilletimes.com.

Thomas Built SCR-equipped bus sales top 1,500 units
TIMES STAFF REPORT
With more than 1,500 orders to date for selective catalytic reduction-equipped (SCR) Saf-TLiner®buses, Thomas Built Buses’ (TBB) sales demonstrate its customers’ support for the new technology. TBB has already taken orders for buses in 44 states and five Canadian provinces, and the orders keep coming. TBB proudly offers SCR technology on all Type C and D vehicles to maximize fuel efficiency and performance, while meeting new federal emissions standards. American Bus Sales and Service, the TBB dealer for Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia, has the distinction of having placed one of the first large orders for the new buses: 59 Saf-T Liner HDX school buses in December 2009. Those buses will be delivered to Montgomery County, Md. public schools this summer. Now customers from California to New York and from Alabama to Canada have jumped on board and placed orders of their own, relying on TBB to provide safe, reliable buses with
proven SCR technology. “We don’t just buy school buses. We invest in new safety and emissions technology because we know it’s the best thing to do not only for the safety of the students we transport, but also for the environment in the communities we serve,” said Ed Bishop, transportation director for Prince William County School District, who recently ordered 40 SCR-equipped buses. “We have chosen SCR because we understand that it is a proven technology over other alternatives, and we believe it’s the best technology over the long term. We are proud to partner with Thomas Built and its dealer, Sonny Merryman Inc., who understand that customer service cannot be undervalued. We’re not just buying a bus, we’re buying a relationship.” “Like Prince William School District, other large school districts and transportation providers have welcomed the opportunity to extend their commitment to sound environmental strategies with their selection of proven SCR technology,” said Ken Hedgecock, vice president, sales, marketing
