Council to consider increase in grant funds

BY ERIN WILTGEN Staff Writer Thomasville City Council will consider a revision in its Governor’s Highway Safety Grant application at the regular meeting Monday.

The revision of $4,999 would bring the project cost request from $14,530 to $19,529. The grant money will be used to purchase necessary equipment for the Thomasville Police Department, and the additional funds will allow the Chair City to secure more equipment than originally was thought necessary. “There was an omission that we needed to approve,� said City Manager Kelly Craver. “There was some other equipment that we needed.�

The other equipment includes a

generator and a light tower. Toby Smith, project director, said the additional equipment will help make D.W.I. checkpoints completely self-sufficient.

Since TPD partners with other agencies to perform the checkpoints, officers are able to cover a large area and typically both lanes of traffic. The new light and tower would better illuminate such a large area and ensure the safety of the officers.

Council will also hold a public hearing on a rezoning request.

Chuck Clark, owner of Central Parts, LLC., at 708 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, requested the property be rezoned from a light industrial district to a heavy industrial district. The 5.4 acre-property serves as a storage area for automobile parts and pieces as well as storage for dismantled cars, scrap metal and other junk.

“He was in compliance with the ordinance until he brought in the junk cars,� said Ken Hepler, planning and zoning administrator. “His choices are to close down, relocate or comply.�

Hepler said that Clark doesn’t want to do anything differently on the property, he merely wants to work in compliance with the city’s ordinances. Clark told Hepler he didn’t know that the junk cars were against the zoning ordinance, and it wasn’t until the city began implementing the business privilege license that Clark became aware of the issue. “He has a significant investment there,� Hepler said. “If we had had the privilege license in place when he started, he would have known and been OK. This action came somewhat as a result of our privilege license.�

Thomasville, North Carolina • Your Town. Your Times.

Don Truell, an incumbent Republican from Thomasville, will compete for one of four spots for Davidson County Commissioner in the November election.

Serving his second Truell consecutive term on the Board of Commissioners, Truell previously worked for the Thomasville Times, for the Thomasville Police Department, as council member for Thomasville City Council and as Mayor of Thomasville.

During his time on the board — especially in the past year or so with the recession — Truell and the rest of the board have worked hard to bring more jobs to the area.

But as Truell, his fellow commissioners and others have pointed out throughout the economic downturn, an increased emphasis on small businesses could very well be the key to turning the economy around. “I think that is a big portion of economic development,� Truell said. “For a long time, we looked at trying to make a home run hit with the big industries, and we’ve done real good with that, but I think while we looked at big industry we neglected to look at small business.

Now, we’re going to look not necessarily more at small businesses but just as much as with big in-

Oct. 11, 1979 Federal regulations stipulated that the thermostats for grades 7-12 be set at 65 degrees during the heating period.

Educators and superintendents asked parents to dress their children warmly.

Oct. 14, 1982 WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Burger King won a victory over McDonald’s when a Florida museum held a weigh-in to settle a sandwich flap. The Museum of Science in Palm Beach County weighed, prodded and chemically analyzed “regular” hamburgers from Burger King, McDonald’s and Wendy’s. The museum concluded that Burger King, true to its advertising assertations, offered a regular hamburger 20 percent bigger than McDonald’s. McDonald’s came in second and Wendy’s in third.

Oct. 12, 1989 Several houses and a day-care center were evacuated after a bomb was discovered at the back door of a house in Thomasville. An anonymous caller notified the Thomasville Police Department that a bomb was on the back porch of a residence at 709 Fisher Ferry St. Officers pulled a white paper sack — filled with five sticks of dynamite attached to a blasting cap — away from the house with a rope.

Officers detonated the explosives at the Thomasville landfill.

At-home genetic tests stalled by PDA Report LIFELONG HEALTH

DR. DAVID LIPSCHITZ Syndicated Columnist

A few months ago, Pathway Genomics, a private biotechnology company, announced the availability of genetic testing for more than 70 diseases that would soon be available at many Walgreens drugstores.

From a single drop of blood, you can learn your risk for coronary artery disease, hypertension, atrial fibrillation and virtually all of the common cancers that affect us. These tests can also tell whether you have an altered ability to metabolize certain drugs and if you are at increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease. The prospect of at-home genetic testing was met with excitement and skepticism.

However, just before a major marketing campaign was to be launched, the Food and Drug Administration sent a letter to Pathway Genomics voicing serious concerns about this testing, including the test’s accuracy and how the results would be interpreted.

The FDA also determined that this test constitutes a medical device, requiring regulation by the FDA. As a result, Walgreens has put the sale of the device on hold. The drama surrounding the directto-consumer genetic test brings up many questions about the value of genetic testing.

Thanks to the Human Genome Project, the sequence of human genes has been accurately mapped and has proved to be a huge breakthrough in our ability to understand the many mechanisms that lead to the aging process as well as the genetic factors that can contribute to diseases.

Basically, we inherit 23 chromosomes from each parent, which provide a unique mix of genes that determines our every characteristic — how

tall you are, the color of your eyes and hair, and your risk for disease. For some illnesses, the role of genetics is extremely clear: If you inherit a mutated or “problem” gene, you may develop a disease. In some cases, both parents must contribute abnormal genes.

This is referred to as an autosomal recessive disease; a good example is sickle cell disease. If a person has one gene, he is a carrier of the sickle cell trait and does not present with the symptoms of the illness.

For other diseases, inheriting only one abnormal gene will result in disease. This is referred to as an autosomal dominant disease, of which Huntington’s disease is a good example. Here if a parent is diagnosed with Huntington’s disease, the parent definitely has the abnormal gene and any offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting the disease from the affected parent.

Unfortunately, the role that genetics plays in the risk of developing a disease is more complicated. Even for sickle cell disease and Huntington’s disease, the genes must be present, but how the illness presents is not universal in all patients. Some with sickle cell have a very mild form of the illness, while others battle a more severe condition.

Similarly, some with the Huntington’s gene may never develop symptoms or do so late in life. For cancer, heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s, the role of genes is murky and hard to interpret. Multiple genes may be involved in the risk of a disease and other factors such as diet and lifestyle may be more important.

Recently published in The New England

Journal of Medicine, two excellent commentaries discussed the concerns of “Direct to Consumer Genetic Testing.” First, authors point out that there is no knowledge currently available on how to interpret many of these results.

For example, if a young man is found to have a gene increasing the risk of prostate cancer, should he have more examinations and tests or even a biopsy? There is no answer to these questions, especially because the nature of prostate cancer suggests that knowledge of future risk may be of limited value -- if anything, it may prove more harmful than beneficial as patients grapple with the emotional turmoil of potentially developing a serious illness.

There is also concern that the suggestion of increased risk of an illness may affect the ability to obtain employment or receive health insurance.

Genetic testing offers incredible benefits for many patients but until further information is known, it’s best to use this technology under the careful supervision of a trusted physician.

Your primary care physician can help you assess any future risk of illness and determine the appropriate path for prevention.

Public universities and the Phoenix challenge VIEWPOINT

D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist Today, American universities are the envy of the rest of the world.

So, until a few years ago, were American auto manufacturers.

Could our universities fall from the top of the ladder the way General Motors did—arrogant, loaded down with costs, and with products unrelated to changing market trends?

I was worrying about this possibility the other day what a nationally syndicated “stock picking” column in the Durham Herald Sun caught my eye.

A reader wrote to columnist Malcolm Berko, “I recently hired a University of Phoenix graduate over a University of Florida graduate because I felt the Phoenix student would give me more bang for my buck in our accounting department. I’m interested in owning shares of this for-profit school because I think they do a superb job preparing people for the business world.”

Berko responded, “…[T]he University of Phoenix, may not have the panache of a University of Florida, but gives more students a superb education for enormously cheaper, certainly more effectively and in a lot less time than the University of Florida.”

Berko asserted that the University of Florida had 50,000 students with a budget of $4.89 billion while Phoenix, with about the same size budget, has 478,000 students.

One reason for the higher cost at Florida: “900 buildings on a 2,000-plus-acre campus and a staff of 16,000, has a ratio of three students for each staff member,” while Phoenix has virtually no campus and a ratio of nine students per staff member.

Berko continued, And while the University of Florida continues to raise its rates and beg the legislators for more money because its budget runs more red ink than Chairman Mao’s Little Red Book; APOL [Phoenix’s owner] expects to make an $830 million profit….They know how to deliver a good education without coddling students, without

frivolous fluff, without the useless feel-good curriculum, without the lavish student unions, dormitories, sports complexes, private health care, a police force or elaborate administration buildings that look like Taj Mahals.”

Putting aside some of the important controversies about alleged deceptive recruiting practices at Phoenix, will the focused, low-cost education on the Phoenix model bring down the higher cost model of today’s American higher education?

My university friends are not ready to surrender. As one of them said, “What about Nobel Prizes? How many have members of the Phoenix faculty won?”

Another asserted that comparing Phoenix to Florida or any other big research campus was like comparing apples and oranges. “Only if you think the only contribution of the University of Florida is the education of students do the comparisons made in this column make sense. Florida is a Tier 1 university with major professional schools and research units. What cancer research is Phoenix supporting? And what service to the state is it providing?”

My friends will not get any argument from me about the relative contributions of American public universities and Phoenix. It is no contest.

Nor will the Phoenix model ever be as good in providing undergraduates with rich and challenging educational, cultural, and social experiences as our best public universities.

But Phoenix still presents a challenge when it comes to the “apples to apples” comparisons on cost for undergraduates and the relevance of a student’s course work to the lightning-fast workplace changes today’s students face when they finish their course work.

As our public universities seek continued and increased funding for each student from state legislators, more and more often they are going to hear more and more questions about cost, effectiveness, relevance and … “frivolous fluff.”

How to profit by expanding freedom VIEWPOINT

STEVE CHAPMAN Syndicated Columnist Spending huge sums of money and getting no results to justify the expense: That’s the relentless, and accurate, Republican critique of President Barack Obama’s efforts to revive the U.S. economy. But it also describes a policy staunchly supported

by Republicans as well as Democrats decade after decade: the war on drugs.

When the government lays out hundreds of billions to keep unemployment from rising above 8 percent, only to see it hit 10 percent, the obvious implication is that the policy didn’t work.

But when the government lays out tens of billions to reduce illicit drug use and finds that it has increased, the obvious implication is one that eludes almost every politician in America.

A few weeks ago, the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) published the latest chapter in a long-running horror tale. In 2009, it found, nearly 22 million Americans used illegal drugs — a 9 percent increase from the previous year and the highest rate since the survey began in 2002.

That happened even though federal, state and local authorities have been expanding enforcement efforts against drugs. Since 1981, Washington has gone from spending $1.5 billion a year to spending $17 billion a year.

How does the administra-

tion explain the jump in illegal activity? You guessed it: Our policies are way too permissive. Commenting on the rise in marijuana use, Gil Kerlikowske, head of the White House’s Office of National Drug Control Policy, insisted that “all of the attention and the focus of calling marijuana medicine has sent the absolute wrong message to our young people.”

What message does he mean? Presumably, that cannabis is not as destructive as commonly portrayed

by ONDCP and others. What makes the message particularly troublesome is that it happens to be true. Marijuana is not entirely without risks, but compared to such legal alternatives as tobacco and alcohol, it’s an alley cat among mountain lions.

The government has been using police and prisons to convey the opposite message, with pitiful results, for a long time. Each year, nearly 1.7 million people are arrested for drug violations, of which 758,000 are for mere possession of cannabis. About half a million people are serving time in prison for drug offenses.

But these harsh policies don’t seem to inhibit growers, dealers and buyers. They persist in finding ways to do business no matter what. The Vancouver-based International Centre for Science in Drug Policy points out that over the past 20 years, weed in the United States has gotten 58 percent cheaper, in inflation-adjusted terms.

Falling prices indicate the stuff is getting more abundant and available, notwithstanding all the cops collaring stoners. The vast majority of high school kids say pot is easy to get.

You might assume that more lenient policies would guarantee an epidemic of drug use. In fact, the Netherlands, which has all but legalized weed, has fewer

potheads than we do, particularly among young people.

“Globally, drug use ... is not simply related to drug policy, since countries with stringent user-level illegal drug policies did not have lower levels of use than countries with liberal ones,” concluded the World Health Organization.

None of this is new, but it has fresh relevance because of budgetary pressures that have forced citizens to ask what on earth the drug war is accomplishing. Californians, whose state government is in a bottomless fiscal hole, will vote next month on an initiative to legalize cannabis. One big selling point is that it could yield a $1.4 billion windfall to state coffers.

What is true for the Golden State is true for the other 49. In a new study for the libertarian Cato Institute in Washington, Harvard economist Jeffrey Miron and research associate Katherine Waldock estimate that, nationally, legalizing and taxing marijuana would save $8.7 billion in enforcement costs and harvest $8.7 billion in revenue.

Instead of lavishing money arresting and incarcerating recreational drug users, the drug users would provide funds for the rest of us. Most of them would be more than happy to do so in exchange for the freedom to indulge their habits.

And the evidence suggests that we would not even see an increase in drug use.

Substance abuse is known to impair clear thinking and good judgment.

But it’s the people pushing harsh drug laws who seem to be lost in a fog.

There is a lot of parity this soccer season in the Central Carolina Conference, giving extra importance to each match.

Monday evening at Thomasville High School, the streaking Central Davidson Spartans made the most of their opportunities, heading back to Southmont with a 3-1 result over the Bulldogs.

The Spartans improve to 10-6-2 for the year, but more importantly, they even their conference mark at 3-3. THS took a hit in the league standings falling to 1-4, with a 9-5 mark for the year.

Central scored the first tally of the night after surviving a rebound shot by the Bulldogs early on.

Andrew Dilley – one of the top players in the CCC – made Thomasville pay dearly with a takeaway. Once he was in the clear, the Spartan star went far post past a diving Eric Orellano for a 1-0 lead with 32 seconds remaining.

“When Dilley gets the ball anything can happen,” said THS coach Huey Turner. “He is a great player

SPRINT CUP SERIES

Stewart back in Chase hunt

BY REID SPENCER NASCARMedia.com FONTANA, Calif.— Tony Stewart still needs help to catch NASCAR Sprint Cup points leader Jimmie Johnson, but he jump-started his climb back into contention for the series championship Sunday at Auto Club Speedway.

Stewart beat resilient Clint Bowyer to the finish line by .466 seconds In Sunday’s Pepsi Max 400 to win his first race at the 2-mile track, his second of the year and the 39th of his career.

In sharp contrast to Stewart’s win, which left him 107 points behind third-place finisher and Chase leader Jimmie Johnson, a handful of Chase drivers took big hits in the championship battle.

Down for the count are Kyle Busch and Greg Biffle, both of whom suffered blown engines. An ignition rotor failure KO’d Carl Edwards, and a late-race wreck with David Ragan all but dashed Kurt Busch’s chances for a second title.

Johnson, on the other hand, leaves his home track 36 points ahead of second-place Denny Hamlin, who came home eighth Sunday. With the Chase field spreading out four races into the series’ postseason, only Hamlin,

and you never know where he is going with the ball.”

Thomasville immediately went on the offensive in the second half, seeking an equalizer and a fresh start. With just under 10 minutes gone, Izzy Escamilla leveled the score at 1-1, receiving a pass from Julian Loera on the wing and driving a left-footed shot near post into the net.

Momentum lasted all of two minutes for the Bulldogs before the Spartans snatched it back for keeps.

A misplay by the Thomasville defense allowed the ball to find Dilley’s foot on the left wing. After a few dribbles he fed Juan Miramontes in the middle of the pitch for the score, breaking the tie for a 2-1 advantage.

Seven minutes later Central tacked on some insurance with Johan Oakes blasting home a shot, leaving Thomasville to do a lot of chasing late in the game.

“This is probably one of the best games we have played this year,” said Turner. “Yeah, we dropped another game, but everybody loses, and with the parity in the league I think we can win some more games and get into the playoffs.”

CHAPEL HILL — With about 20 seconds to play in Saturday’s game between North Carolina and Clemson, the crowd at Kenan Stadium began chanting running back Johnny White’s name.

After spending the first three years of his career bouncing between defensive back, receiver and running back, White finally is getting his time

in the spotlight.

The senior led the Tar Heels for the third straight game, running for two touchdowns and accounting for 179 of UNC’s 255 yards of offense in a 21-16 win over Clemson for its third consecutive win.

It was the Tar Heels’ first win over the Tigers since 2001 and their third in a row this season despite missing 11 players because of the ongoing investigations into

agents and academics.

“It’s a great feeling, man,” White said. “The crowd is still there and is still live.”

White rushed 22 times for 89 yards and had six catches for 90 yards, including a critical fourthdown catch in the final quarter, which set up his game-clinching touchdown.

And when the Tar Heels (3-2, 1-1 ACC) needed to eat up the clock on their final possession, the ball

was put in White’s hands to secure the win. UNC got the ball back with 5:25 left in the game after Clemson’s Kyle Parker connected with Jaron Brown for a 74-yard touchdown pass to cut the score to 21-16.

White was involved in all nine of UNC’s plays on the drive, and by the time the Tar Heels were forced to punt the ball to the Tigers (2-3, 0-2), only

ON NASCAR

CATHY ELLIOTT NASCAR Columnist

Chase or no, all systems go in track attacks If one of the most brilliantly talented drivers in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series earns a reputation for being a bit of a bully, how should the rest of the field respond? Should they take it lying down, or should they be allowed to stand up and fight back?

This is the central question in the ongoing debate regarding two on-track incidents between Kyle Busch and David Reutimann during the race at Kansas Speedway on October 3.

In the early laps, Busch ran into the back of Reutimann’s car, effectively taking him out of contention.

When the No. 00 Aaron’s Toyota team got their driver back on the track, he returned the favor.

Busch, who is racing for the series title and was running in the top 10 in the race, ended up finishing 21st and dropping four spots in the driver standings.

Reutimann .. well, what difference does it really make? He isn’t in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup field, so who really cares, right?

Wrong. There are 31 drivers on the track each week who want that victory just as badly as the 12 guys in the Chase, and will work just as hard to make it happen. When the chance for a championship is gone, the will to win remains firmly in place.

But where do you draw the line? Is there an unwritten rule about how far nonChase drivers can go, or not go, when racing against the 12 championship contenders? If the Busch/Reutimann dustup had happened back in June, would we have given it much more than a passing “that’s racing” remark before moving on to the next topic? Probably not.

The 12 most deserving Cup drivers raced their way into this year’s Chase. They are the equivalent of NFL quarterbacks, the best of the best, the glamour guys of NASCAR. Should special rules and restrictions apply?

The NFL thinks so.

Remember all that brouhaha four or five years

SPORTS From page 7 ago when the league shrank what is known as the quarterback â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;strike zone?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Under the new rules, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit the quarterback in the head, or below the knees. The defense is required to make a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;reasonable effortâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to avoid hitting him at all once he releases the ball.

In other words, look but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth more than you are.

I gave the infamous Elliott Snort of Derision â&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially dramatic during allergy season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; when I first heard this, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m giving it again right now. This is football weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about, people. These grown men are paid the big bucks to encase themselves in heavy equipment and get knocked around. If they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dancing With the Starsâ&#x20AC;? has an early entry program.

I am happy that NASCAR, also a sport where grown men encase themselves in heavy equipment and get knocked around, has no such â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hands off the superstarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; policy. No penalties or fines were handed down as a result of the Busch/Reutimann incident.

Did Kyle have it coming? Well, his name is commonly linked with two words. The first is â&#x20AC;&#x153;talented,â&#x20AC;? of course, but the second is â&#x20AC;&#x153;controversy.â&#x20AC;? Since the start of his Cup career, he has had well-publicized issues with Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Burton and Casey Mears. And Tony Stewart ... and Brian Vickers ... and Brad Keselowski ... and his own teammate, Denny Hamlin.

Busch said the initial contact was truly not deliberate, that Reutimannâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car was loose and his retaliatory behavior was uncalled for. â&#x20AC;&#x153; He couldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve wrecked me in any of the first 26 races next year. That wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been fine,â&#x20AC;? he said after the race.

But Reutimann, who has a laidback, nice-guy reputation, apparently didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like waiting to be told when he was allowed to demonstrate his displeasure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the Chase or not, you need

to think about who youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re running over when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re running over them.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care who you are. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the Chase, you have as much responsibility to drive with respect as I do to everybody else,â&#x20AC;? he responded.

Sometimes there may be a tendency to think slightly less of the talents of non-Chase drivers, but that is unfair.

Although he has only been racing in the Cup Series full-time for three years, Reutimannâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credentials are solid.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a third-generation racer, with wins in the NASCAR Camping World, Nationwide and Sprint Cup Series.

He knows what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing out there.

A reputation for winning can come and go like the change of seasons, but a reputation for things like integrity and fair play are earned over the course of a career.

In this particular case, some highly respected human philosophies have come into play, things like karma, the Golden Rule and â&#x20AC;&#x153;donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dish it out if you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it.â&#x20AC;? Sticks and stones may break my bones, but a slight twitch to the right can definitely break your championship chances, buddy, if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way I choose to play the game.

What we could be seeing here is a classic example of the boy who cried wolf â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or maybe the boy who knocked the other wolves out of the way so many times that one member of the pack finally got fed up and decided it was time to bite back. When Kyle Busch needed the benefit of the doubt, no one wanted to give it to him.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not running races with 12-car fields in the Chase. Everyone shows up; everyone qualifies. Anyone can win on any given day. Who would want to change that? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of what makes NASCAR so much fun.

Kyle Busch isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only driver to raise the ire of his teammates this year.

Now that Reutimann has fired the first volley, so to speak, it will be interesting to see what, if anything, happens next.

Some drivers may get what they paid for from a sportsmanship standpoint over the course of the regular season, and others may not. But one thing is certain. As fans, we are all getting our moneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth.

Struggles continue for LHS in 42-0 loss

BY JASON QUEEN Special to the Times WALLBURG — Relying heavily on running back De Greene and the running game, Ledford isn’t built to come back from large deficits.

Friday’s Mid-Piedmont Conference opener with North Forsyth was the worst case scenario.

The Vikings did essentially anything they wanted from the opening kickoff, and the Panthers couldn’t muster any offense in a 42-0 loss in Wallburg.

Ledford coach Chris Adams could only tip his hat to North Forsyth after the disappointing loss. “They’ve got a good package,” Adams conced-

STEWART From page 7 Kevin Harvick (54 points back) and Jeff Gordon (85 back) are within 100 points of the four-time defending champion with six races left.

Non-Chasers Kasey Kahne, Ryan Newman and Mark Martin finished fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively. Harvick came home seventh, followed

by Hamlin, Gordon and David Reutimann.

Stewart, who gets his engines and chassis from Hendrick Motorsports, isn’t about to discount his chances of winning a third NASCAR Sprint Cup title.

“We’re doing everything we can do,” said Stewart, who took the lead one lap after a restart on Lap 188 and held it the rest of the way. “We’re going to need some help, but we’re doing everything we can do. I’m proud of these guys, and just so thankful … they refuse to give up, they refuse to back down.

HEELS From page 7 13 seconds remained on the clock.

All three of Parker’s desperation heaves fell incomplete, and he finished 21-of-38 for 214 yards.

“You can just see that kid is just running his heart out,” UNC coach Butch Davis said of White.

“It says an awful lot about him, he just keeps pounding and pounding and pounding.

“He finds a crease and bounces outside the tackle box and made some really big runs.”

UNC’s defense, boosted by the return of safety Deunta Williams from a four-game suspension for violating the NCAA agent benefits and preferential treatment rules, held Andre Ellington, the ACC’s leading rusher, to just 55 yards on 12 carries. Clemson finished with 305 yards of offense but was hurt by nine penalties for 81 yards.

“I’m extremely embarrassed,” said Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, whose team lost its third straight game. “This is just not a very wellcoached football team right now, and it’s my fault.

“I’m extremely disappointed in what I saw today. I saw a team that wasn’t very smart; I saw a team that wasn’t very disciplined.”

Clemson cut the score to 14-10 in the third quarter when a 31-yard punt return set up a 10-yard touchdown run by Jamie Harper. The Tigers had a chance to make it a one-

ed. “Their record’s very deceiving; they’ve played a heckuva schedule.

“I was hoping we’d get off to a better start than we did. We go three-andout on the first series, then they come score.

Our kids need some good things to happen early just to get them going.”

The Vikings marched 69 yards on seven plays on their first possession. Quentin Thompson capped the drive with a 2yard plunge, and the rout was on. Quarterback Edward Valentine scored on a 17-yard scamper through traffic, then finished the next drive with an 8-yard scoring run after a botched snap. Valentine found Kyle Onuma for a 20-yard touchdown

pass on North’s next possession, and the Vikings finished the half at the Ledford 1 yard line before time expired. As the two teams headed to the locker rooms, the game seemed even more onesided than the scoreboard suggested.

North piled up 327 yards of offense before the intermission, while suffocating Ledford and limiting the Panthers to 18 yards. Ledford managed just two first downs, and one of those was the result of a roughing passer penalty on the visitors.

“Offensively, we’ve got to get off to a better start,” Adams added.

“The whole goal offensively is to keep their of-

We’ll just keep doing what we’re doing here.”

Though happy to have a fast racecar, Bowyer was disappointed to leave Fontana without a victory. Bowyer won the first Chase race, at New Hampshire, only to have the victory tainted by a 150-point penalty after his winning car failed inspection at NASCAR’s tech center in Concord, N.C. “A good run was crucial for our race team after what had happened with our win, and we got that today. But I was frustrated I didn’t get a win,” said Bowyer, who passed Johnson for the runner-up position after a restart with two laps left in the race.

“I really, really wanted to win just to set the record straight on what had happened with the last win. We’re capable of winning races, and if we keep doing what we did today, we’re going to win another one.”

It was a disastrous day for Roush Fenway Racing, which got a team-best finish of 30th from Matt Kenseth. Biffle’s engine

exploded on Lap 40, relegating him to a 41st-place result.

On a restart 18 laps later, Edwards developed his ignition problem and lost 14 laps while his crew repaired his No. 99 Ford.

Edwards finished 34th and, like Biffle, sustained a crushing blow to his championship hopes.

Biffle, last week’s winner at Kansas, summed it up after climbing from his car: “It’s disappointing, but what can you do? It broke. Everybody is giving this program 110 percent, so you can’t blame anybody. We were trying hard to win the title — and it isn’t going to happen this year.”

Likewise, Kyle Busch saw his title aspirations disappear in smoke when his engine blew on Lap 154. He finished 35th.

Gordon also took a hit in the points after being flagged for speeding on pit road during stops under caution on Lap 156. He rallied for a ninth-place finish but still lost significant ground to Johnson.

point game at the start of the fourth, but kicker Chandler Catanzaro missed a 42-yard field goal wide right.

On the ensuing possession, which included three Clemson penalties, White capped a 76yard drive with a 26-yard touchdown run. It was the longest touchdown run by UNC this season and put the Tar Heels up 21-10.

White’s most important play of the drive, however, was arguably a 12-yard catch from Yates on fourth-and-4. The Tar Heels finished the day 4-of-4 on fourth-down conversions, including a pair on that fourth quarter touchdown drive.

“The confidence Butch Davis has to go for it on fourth down all the time just gives the offense a whole lot more confidence that we can covert it,” said Yates, who completed 18 of 34 passes for 164 yards.

White’s first touchdown was a 4-yard run on the Tar Heels’ opening possession to give UNC the lead heading into the second quarter for the first time this season.

Catanzaro connected on a 48-yard field goal in the second to cut the deficit to 7-3 but UNC took the lead into the break thanks to a 9-yard touchdown pass from Yates to Jheranie Boyd.

“We knew this game was going to be big,” Yates said. “Clemson is a great team and we knew we had to be on our game to beat them. This kind of momentum coming into the heart of our schedule, this is huge for us.”

fense off the field.

“We’ve got to get more first downs, defensively we’ve got to do a better job tackling. We’ve got to keep working and keep battling; we’ve got some young kids in some key positions and we’re asking a lot out of them.”

The Vikings finished the scoring with Valentine’s 1-yard run in the third and Calvin Hawkins’ exclamation point from five yards out with just over a minute left to play.

FROM PAGE 1 EMS From page 1 rant claims Lowe knew the endorsement was falsely made and forged, and acted for the sake of gain with the intent to injure and defraud.

Davidson County Manager Robert Hyatt said Lowe resigned on Friday, citing that it was in the best interest of the department. Hyatt said Lowe has been employed by the county for 30 years and was named director of emergency services in June 2003. At the time of his arrest, Lowe’s annual salary was more than $67,000. “[Lowe] resigned Friday afternoon after informing me of his impending arrest,” said Hyatt. “The first we heard of this situation was Friday when it all transpired. It certainly caught us by surprise, and we are shocked by the allegations. We certainly respect what Mr. Lowe decided to do instead of us having to deal with how we were going to handle the situation. He didn’t want anything to reflect poorly on the county.

ASSAULT From page 1 from Thomasville Medical Center at 5:22 a.m. Saturday morning regarding a female victim suffering from a gunshot wound.

Sebastian said the couple had got into an argument that night that led to Hinson being shot with a .22 caliber pistol.

“It was domestic related,” Sebastian said.

“They were involved in an altercation and it appeared to turn physical.

A fight ensued between the two of them and Dunlap grabbed a gun. There was a struggle and the gun went off.”

Sebastian said Dunlap claimed the gun accidentally fired and Hinson was shot in the breast.

dustries.”

A large piece of bringing in new businesses — whether large or small — comes through making the county more attractive to business owners.

This includes not only having buildings available but having infrastructure such as sewer and electric servicing those buildings. Having a stable and relatively low tax rate along with a high quality of life also helps market an area.

“We’ve got to sell ourselves,” Truell said.

“Tourism is a tool to attract business. Tourism is not the only thing, but at the same time, tourism is a big thing they want.

They want good restaurants, they want good communities.”

Truell added that business owners also look at school systems, not only to ensure a quality education for their children but also to ensure a highly-trained workforce coming out of local community colleges.

But economic development isn’t the only motivation for maintaining high-quality schools. In an effort to ensure that, Truell says the board is continuing to move forward with constructing a new middle school and high school in the northern part of the county, where the county has already purchased property.

“We’re trying to put a plan together,” Truell said. “We know that

He has been with us for virtually his whole career.”

Lowe’s job consisted of overseeing three separate divisions — Fire Marshall’s Office, Emergency Medical Services and Emergency Management.

Hyatt said the three division heads will continue the day-to-day operations of each department until Lowe’s replacement can be found. Hyatt said he expects to have Lowe’s successor named within the next two weeks.

“Everybody was certainly surprised when we heard the allegations,” Hyatt said. “At the same, we’ve got the responsibility to our citizens to pick up and move on to ensure nothing disrupts the services from our departments. That’s what we’re trying to do. This is not anything we’ve anticipated and we’re still in the fact-finding part of our response.”

Lowe was taken to Davidson County Jail and issued a $20,000 secured bond.

He is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 25.

LEADING THE WAY

Mike Crabb, RRT, RCP, BA, Thomasville Medical Center Manager of Cardiopulmonary, Cardiovascular, Sleep Disorders and Neurological Services, was recently named as the 2010 Leadership Practitioner of the Year from the North Carolina Society of Respiratory Care. Nominated and selected by peers from across the state, Mike was honored for this dedication and contributions to respiratory care.

were considered non-lifethreatening.

“He claims it was accidental,” said Sebastian.

“We can’t really get into all the he-said, she-said.

The bullet went in one side and out the other.

She was very lucky.”

Dunlap is being held without bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 5.

• Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office has charged a Wallburg man with multiple counts of secret peeping for recording people in a bathroom without them knowing.

Detectives initiated an investigation on Oct. 4 involving several males and females who claimed to have been victims of secret peeping. Following the investigation, detectives allege that Mark Anthony Branch, 53, of 2009 County Meadow Lane in

Wallburg, committed the act of felony secret peeping against six separate male and female victims by the use of a video recording device.

“We allege that he hid a camera in a bathroom in his residence when there was a gathering going on,” Davidson County Sheriff David Grice said.

“There was a social event at his house. The camera was concealed in a bathroom.”

Grice said he couldn’t comment on how detectives were made aware of the incident.

Branch was placed in Davidson County Jail and issued a $5,000 secured bond. He is scheduled to appear in Lexington District Court on Nov. 9.

we’re going to build the middle school before we’re going to build the high school. We’re looking at what kind of funds we can apply for to help with the school construction. We’re putting in the paperwork now. I think — and this is conjecture — I think within the next three weeks we’re going to put a plan together even before the election.”

Truell says that the Davidson County Board of Education has just put out bids for construction of the middle school, so the board doesn’t know quite yet how much the school will cost. But it’s the when and for how much, not the if, that is in question.

“We’re not waiting,” Truell said. “We are committed to building these schools. We know that we can borrow money now cheaper than we can borrow it a few years from now, so we might as well do what we’re going to do.”

And Truell says he’s proud of all the board has done in terms of education.

“Since 2001, we have spent $85 million on school construction, built four new elementary schools, built an intermediate school, done renovations and expansions to eight different schools and purchased land for two schools,” he said.

“I’m pleased that we’ve got as far as we have.”

In addition to the green-friendly additions planned into the new middle school — such as solar panels — Truell says the county has received a $600,000 grant

to update air conditioning and heating units in county buildings. The landfill has methane wheels, and commissioners looked into bringing wind energy to the area on Thursday.

As far as transportation needs, Truell says future projects might take a back-burner for a while given the extensive, though necessary, Interstate-85 bridge project.

“There are going to be setbacks for transportation in this whole area because they’re putting so much money into this one project,” he said.

“It’ll cut back on a lot of them for a while.”

The High Rock Lake issue has been a great debate for the board recently. Truell cited rules the state of North Carolina made regarding Jordan Lake near Raleigh.

“The state made rules that cover the construction around that lake, what can happen on the lake, who can use the lake,” Truell said. “They even look at runoff that runs into that lake.”

Truell says that High Rock Lake looks like it will be the state’s next project, and it looks like the lake will come under those Jordan Lake rules as well, meaning runoff from the various municipalities into that body of water will be regulated.

“We’ve got to clean those things up,” Truell said. “It’s going to be a big job.”
