CIS to sponsor annual Harvest Festival BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
With Halloween falling on a Sunday this year, parents may be looking for alternative forms of spooky fun for their children. Communities In Schools of Thomasville has just the answer. On Wednesday, CIS is partnering with several other local agencies to bring Thomasville the Harvest Festival from 5-7 p.m. at the Thomasville Recreation Center where children
can trick and treat and parents don’t have to worry about getting them up on Monday. “We’ve been doing this for many, many years,” Judy Younts, director of CIS, said. “It’s just a safe alternative to Halloween. Kids can come and dress up in costumes and we’ll have plenty for them to do. It really is a wonderful event and we have a lot of activities.” This marks the 14th annual Harvest Festival, which started as an idea of the late Conrad Kinton, a local magician and
CIS board member who died last year after suffering a stroke. Kinton started the Harvest Festival as a way to give children a safe place to celebrate Halloween. “[Kinton] believed in children’s issues and we wanted to continue it,” said Younts. “He did balloon sculpturing for the children and would give prizes to the best costumes. We always appreciated him doing that. He really cared about children and wanted them to have a better life.”
In addition to the trick-ortreating, there will be a costume contest, beanbag tossing, face painting, pizza and drinks. CIS is partnering with Parks and Recreation, YMCA, the Boys and Girls Club, Raulston Halloween Family, Thomasville Fire Department and Thomasville Police Department. Children are asked to dress as a storybook character or someone they want to be when they grow up in order to be eligible for the

U.S. Senate race heats up as election day nears BY ERIN WILTGEN Staff Writer
As Election Day draws near, intensity in the high-profile U.S. Senate race in North Carolina heats up. A recent PPP poll shows Democratic challenger Elaine Marshall only eight points beMarshall hind incumbent Sen. Richard Burr ( R - N. C . ) who sits with 48 percent. Libertarian candidate Burr Michael Beitler was recorded at 3 percent. The TPM Poll Average, however, shows a wider spread, Beitler with Marshall at 35 percent and Burr at 50.8 percent. Whatever the actual spread in voter loyalty, all three candidates have worked hard to make their stances known. And all three agree on at least one point — helping small businesses develop remains a key in economic development. “Small business is the engine of job creation,” said Sam Swartz, Marshall’s spokesperson. “There are a number of things we need to do to create jobs in the private sector.” Swartz says that giving tax cuts to small businesses will help spur their growth. She also proposes to eliminate tax

Grice looks for achievements to win voters BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
2010 ELECTION
Davidson County Sheriff David Grice has been through this rodeo before. In the May Republican primary, Grice easily won his parties’ nomination following a very heated race against two qualified candidates that garnered a lot of local attention. Grice prevailed because Grice voters obviously felt he had done a good job since becoming sheriff in 2004. Grice is hoping those same voters support him again next Tuesday when his bid for re-election will be challenged by Democrat Tommy Evans. “I think we’ve earned another
term,” Grice said. “I feel like the campaign is in good shape and I would encourage people to go out and vote. The officers and I have worked hard to provide good, honest, dignified services.” Unlike May, when opponents challenged each other’s credibility and ability to lead the sheriff ’s office, this race is much more cordial. Grice and Evans have both expressed respect for each other and the two are trying to let resumes, not public banter, be the reason why voters lean one way or the other. “This has been a very clean campaign and is a good example of how political races are supposed to be and not all dirty,” said Grice. “Political races are about your background and what you plan on bringing to the table. He is
a formidable opponent and it will be up to the people to decide.” Grice’s credentials speak for themselves. There’s not much the Denton-native hasn’t accomplished during his career in law enforcement. He has all the degrees, he balances the sheriff ’s budget and his work with other law enforcement agencies has created a department that reaches across jurisdictional boundaries on a regular basis. If re-elected, Grice said he will continue pursuing goals he set out for himself four years ago. He wants the firing range project finished, and combating breaking and entering crimes remains high on his list. “We set goals every year as an agency,” Grice said. “We work toward those goals and have been fairly successful every year. We want to continue working as hard

Solar energy, water resources atop Kepley’s priority list BY ERIN WILTGEN Staff Writer
Though economic development and education certainly rank atop Billy Joe Kepley’s list of challenges facing D av i d s o n County, the construction of a r e s e r vo i r continues to be his No. 1 issue. Kepley An incumbent Republican from Lexington, Kepley works as a community sawmill operator and a hay farmer and will run for his sixth term on the Board of Commissioners on Nov. 2. Kepley has advocated for a county-run reservoir for a while without any backing from the board. “I’m pushing hard for that, but I do not have the support for it,” he said. “Everybody says we have plenty of water and if nothing else we can pump water out of High Rock Lake. Lord, I don’t think anyone wants to drink the water out of High Rock Lake.” Pointing to 2004 when Davidson County ran out of water, Kepley notes that the drought left river levels below water intake pipes. “I think the droughts will come again,” Kepley said. “But quantity is not as much worry to me as the quality.” Kepley says he has read the reports of mercury, herbicides and pesticides

How Aunt Dorothy caught the flu UNCLE BILL’S CORNER
BILL HILL Guest Columnist
Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Jim loved each other dearly. That love was the glue that kept them together for many many, years. Sure they had their ups and downs over the years but mostly they had a blissful marriage. They lived in a small farm up Midwest. Uncle Jim farmed when he had time, but he mainly worked in his garage. He was known as the best mechanic around. Folks use to say, “If Jim can’t fix it, just junk it.” Aunt Dorothy took care of the house, the kids and the bills. Once, using a hoe for a weapon, she dispatched a rattlesnake that wandered into the yard. In other words, she could be quite a formidable woman when circumstances called for it. Like most Midwest farm homes in the ‘40s, their house was heated by a wood-burning stove in the living room. Each spring, they moved the stove to the back porch. Each fall, they carted it back inside and gave it a couple of black stove polish that filled the house with smoke the first several times the stove was fired up. Before hooking up the stove each fall, though, they had to clean the year’s buildup
of creosote out of the chimney to prevent a chimney fire. This was usually accomplished by tying a log chain to a rope, stick a few tree branches through the chain, and working it up and down the chimney to knock the soot loose. When chimneycleaning time arrived, Uncle Jim enlisted Aunt Dorothy’s help to keep the living room from filling up with soot. The base of most chimneys was solid up to the flue hole, which was the only place for the soot to come out. So Uncle Jim had Aunt Dorothy stand on a ladder and hold a big dishpan under the hole to catch the soot that would be knocked loose when he dropped the chain. Everything was set. Uncle Jim was on the roof and Aunt Dorothy took the pan down, stuck her face in the flue hole and hollered back, “What did you say?” At that precise moment, Uncle Jim dropped the chain. Whoosh! The soot came out in a great black cloud while Aunt Dorothy’s face was still in the hole. She might not have

been able to hear him, but he could hear her. Uncle Jim said he was afraid to come down, but he knew he couldn’t live on the roof forever. So, he crawled down the ladder, took a deep breath and opened the front door. There stood Aunt Dorothy, shaking a soot-blackened finger at him stomping her feet and still yelling a blue streak. Only her eyes and teeth showed thru the soot. Heaven help him, a giggle slipped out. To his dying day, Uncle Jim swore it was an accident. Aunt Dorothy finally did forgive him, more or less, after a year or so. But 30 years later, if you mentioned chimney cleaning, Uncle Jim couldn’t help laughing. And Aunt Dorothy would get mad all over again! Well have a good week folks. Be strong, be safe, love one another, pray for our military people, And God loves us all.

HEALTH
Depression often comes with the arrival of winter LIFELONG HEALTH
DR. DAVID LIPSCHITZ Syndicated Columnist
As colder weather rapidly approaches, many health practitioners are keenly aware that the “winter blues� is more than just an expression. In winter, the incidence of depression significantly increases. So, when the American Psychiatric Association recently updated their guidelines on the management of depression, it couldn’t have come at a better time. The most striking recommendation is the emphasis on psychotherapy as a critical component of treatment. Therapy not only improves the symptoms of depression but also helps patients build the coping skills necessary to deal with many of the root causes of the condition. Frequently, patients ask me to prescribe antidepressants yet resist seeing a qualified therapist. While antidepressants are valuable tools in treating depression, these medications work best when taken in combination with ongoing psychotherapy. This may be done by psychiatrists occasionally, but more frequently, behavioral therapists see depressed patients either alone, with a spouse or a family member and, occasionally, in groups. The therapeutic value of talking with an expert, also referred to as cognitive behavioral therapy, is an essential element of treatment. The association does recommend using a rating scale to accurately diagnose and define the psychiatric symptoms and severity of depression. As a general rule, depression is usually defined as minor or major. A patient with
minor depression feels glum or sad, experiences frequent fatigue, has difficulty sleeping and may either gain or lose weight. Importantly, the patient is not suicidal and is able to function adequately at home or at work. The condition can persist for years and is often referred to as dysthymia. Minor depression can often be helped significantly with psychotherapy alone. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, major depression occurs in 3.4 percent of the population. It affects people of all ages, ethnic groups, sex and socioeconomic status. To diagnose a major depression, a patient must have a significantly depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure for most of the day for at
‘Approximately 10 percent of Americans are depressed. It is a true epidemic that is frequently ignored ...’ least two weeks. Weight loss, insomnia, fatigue or loss of energy, a feeling of worthlessness and excessive guilt, a reduced ability to concentrate, and recurrent thoughts of death or suicide are common symptoms. These patients usually find it impossible to function in the community, and those deemed to be at risk for suicide should be admitted to a facility for observation and intensive treatment. The association’s recommendations focus primarily on major depression, an illness that must be taken very seriously. On occasion, the cause of major depression may be the presence of an illness, an adverse effect of a drug or may have been precipitated by a major psychological stress. It is important to determine if the patient has turned to drugs or alcohol or if substance abuse is a cause of the
problem. Family and social issues must be carefully assessed. Dysfunctional relationships and physical or emotional abuse could be the root cause of a major depressive episode. Mostly, depression occurs for no good reason and is associated with declines in serotonin and noradrenaline concentrations in the brain, which can lead to all of the disease’s symptoms. Antidepressants aim to increase the concentration of serotonin, noradrenaline or both. Responses to individual antidepressants vary from patient to patient, and multiple trials of different medications may be needed before symptomatic relief occurs. Anyone who remains chronically depressed or has had three or more episodes of major depression should be maintained on antidepressants indefinitely. When neither psychotherapy nor medications eliminate the symptoms of major depression, electroconvulsive therapy should be considered. In this procedure, electric currents are passed through the brain of sedated patients. Although the mechanism is ill understood, it is highly effective in improving symptoms. Approximately 10 percent of Americans are depressed. It is a true epidemic that is frequently ignored, inadequately treated and often misunderstood. If you or someone you love suffers from depression, do not wait to seek help. Psychotherapy with or without the addition of medications can prove to be life changing.

Finding the holiday spirit AROUND TOWN
LISA WALL Editor Fall is finally here in Thomasville. Temperatures are in the 70s and a chill is in the air after dark. Maple trees have found their true color in a brilliant orange and others are just now starting to follow suit. After skipping spring and going straight to summer this year, it’s nice to have some mild weather and a true autumn for a change. There’s nothing more beautiful than when the leaves change and turn the North Carolina skyline into a glorious spectrum of color. As staff writer Eliot Duke wrote in Saturday’s Times, local wives’ tales are calling for an even truer winter, with persimmon seeds, the early fall of acorns and woolly worms predicting cold and a lot of snow. I may not be a huge fan of cold weather, but waking up to the sight of freshly fallen snow has a way of bringing out the kid in me. But while winter may still be a couple of months away, a lot of townsfolk already are gearing up for the holiday season. Thomasville Medical Center Foundation is hard at work preparing for the return of “An Evening of Music” on Nov. 13 and 14 at Finch Auditorium. The musical spectacular is dedicated to United States veterans and will feature music from the World War II era. If the show is anything like the Christmas Trees of Thomasville Medical Center, then the event is sure to get everyone in the holiday spirit. For more information on “An Evening of Music” or tickets, call 476-2526. On the following Saturday — Nov. 20 — the annual Thomasville Christmas Parade will be held on Main Street beginning at 3 p.m. Area civic organizations, school marching bands, dance groups, and of course, jolly Ole St. Nick, will parade through downtown to the delight of young and old alike. Special thanks to Fair Grove Lions Club for continuing to organize the popular annual event. Thomasville Tourism Director Mark Scott has asked Santa to stay in town a few days to get photographs with local children. Before and after the Christmas parade, along with the following weekend, parents and children can visit specified
local landmarks to have their picture taken with Santa. For a small sitting fee, which will benefit the Tourism Commission, and a one-item donation to the Times Food Challenge, residents can avoid crowded malls to get a one-on-one meeting with Santa and a great picture for holiday cards. The Tourism Commission is still seeking businesses to sponsor the event, which they hope will become an annual tradition. To become a sponsor, contact Scott at 472-4422. Look for more details from this opportunity in the Times soon. In what already has become a tradition for many Thomasville residents and businesses is the Times Food Challenge. Partnering with the Thomasville Parks and Recreation Department, the challenge is to collect 10,000 non-perishable food items to help underprivileged families in the city. Donations are split between Fairgrove Family Resource Center, Cooperative Community Ministry and His Laboring Few Ministries. For those unfamiliar with these agencies, they provide food and financial assistance, along with a wealth of other programs, to those experiencing a difficult time financially. Most of us have experienced hard times at some point in our lives, so it’s easy to relate to not having enough funds to meet all the monthly financial demands. With more than 16 percent of North Carolinians living below the poverty level, according to the 2010 census, there are more people than ever in need of help. What better gift can someone give, than the gift of a few good meals to those less fortunate than ourselves. I encourage everyone to buy just one extra can or box of food at each visit to the grocery store now through Dec. 30 to give to the Food Challenge. It only amounts to a few dollars but goes a long way to helping keep food on the table for all of our neighbors. Donations can be dropped off at the Parks and Recreation Department Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., now through Dec. 30. To register, call 888-3590 to have your name included in weekly advertisements in the Times. The agencies the Food Challenge serve also are seeking sponsors to provide Christmas gifts for children and families in need. Contact each agency to see how you can help bring a smile to face of parents and children this Christmas morning. With each aforementioned event, there is great opportunity to both give and receive the gift of Christmas spirit. Join in and enjoy every moment of the coming holiday season.
Candidate’s post-election bucket list VIEWPOINT
D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist One of my old friends, a successful politician, gave me great advice that I ought to pass on to the hard-working candidates who face the electorate next week. Half of them will experience a disappointing loss. My friend had tough competition and faced the prospect of losing in every election. “But when and if I do lose,” he told me, “it is not going to be all that bad.” He explained. What he did during the campaign was to keep a secret list. It was something like a “bucket list.” He wrote down all the things he wanted to do, but wouldn’t be able to do if he won the election. He listed the places he had always wanted to see, old friends to visit, vacations to take with his family, courses he could take if he went back to school for a semester, new skills he wanted to learn, an exercise program, and lots of other things. “By the time I had about 10 things on the list, I wasn’t all that worried about losing anymore. In fact, when I compared what was on the list with what I would be doing if I won, I started hoping that I would lose. Well, maybe not really hoping to lose, but not dreading the alternative so much.” At the top of my friend’s
bucket list were a whole bunch of books that he would be able to read if he lost his election. So, in honor of the candidates who might lose on November 2, I am suggesting five books for them to consider putting on their post election list. I confess that I have a personal agenda here, and if you haven’t guessed already, you will know it before you get to the end of the column. Here are book suggestions for the candidates and for you to consider: Minrose Gwin’s “The Queen Of Palmyra.” This new book by a UNC-Chapel Hill professor is set in a small Mississippi town in 1963. The leading characters are a young white girl and an African-American woman who is a family servant. The book has been compared to the best-selling “The Help.” But lots of people, including me, think that it is deeper, richer, and much better. (Gwin will be my guest on North Carolina Bookwatch on Friday, November 5, at 9:30 pm and Sunday, November 7, at 5 pm. Now you know my secret agenda.) “Jim Hunt: A Biography” by long time Hunt aide Gary Pearce. Pearce’s good storytelling skills make for a good read as he explains how and why Hunt became the most successful North Carolina politician of all time. It is must reading for politicsloving Republicans and Democrats. I plan to write more about this book in a few weeks. (November 12, 14) Suzy Barile’s “Undaunted Heart: The True Story of a Southern Belle and a Yankee General.” Barile tells the story of the courtship and happy marriage of Union General Smith Atkins and Ella Swain,
daughter of University of North Carolina President and former Governor David Swain. (November 19, 21) “In The Shadow Of FDR: From Harry Truman to Barack Obama” by North Carolina’s leading historian of the U.S. Presidency, William Leuchtenburg. Professor Leuchtenburg compares the challenges that Franklin Roosevelt faced with those of his successors. (November 26, 28) “Conquering the Sky: The Secret Flights of the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk” by East Carolina University history professor Larry Tise. Tise tells the story of the flights by the Wrights at Kitty Hawk in 1908. It was these flights, not the first flights of 1903, that convinced the world that the Wrights had mastered the challenge of controlled powered flight. (December 3, 5) D.G. Martin hosts UNCTV’s North Carolina Bookwatch, which airs Fridays at 9:30pm and Sundays at 5pm. For more information or to view prior programs visit the webpage at www. unctv.org/ncbookwatch/ This week’s (Friday, October 22, and Sunday, October 24) guest is Leonard Rogoff, author of “Down Home: Jewish Life In North Carolina.” From an earlier column: “Down Home: Jewish Life in North Carolina” by Leonard Rogoff follows the history of Jews in our state beginning with Sir Walter Raleigh’s efforts to establish a colony on Roanoke Island, when Joachim Gantz, a Jewish metallurgist, explored the area’s potential for mining in 1585. Rogoff relates the sweep of North Carolina’s history as it overlapped with and was influenced by the experiences of Jewish people.

loopholes that ship jobs overseas. Burr emphasizes the need to eliminate regulatory uncertainty for small companies, noting that business owners who can’t predict costs in the face of governmentthreatened taxes and regulations won’t hire. “Right now, small businesses and other employers are living in fear of what will be the next new onerous law or regulation that will come out of Washington,” he said in an e-mail. Burr also says that maintaining a steady tax rate — with no increases — as well as a simpler tax code will stimulate the economy. Beitler, a Greensboro business professor, stands close with Burr on regulation, but he advocates that past bureaucrats and politicians of both parties hold the blame for nation’s economic mess. “He wants to encourage small business by reducing regulations that end up benefitting big businesses,” said Beitler spokesperson Michael Shanklin. Beitler’s anti-regulation stance extends to his education policy as well. Shanklin says that instead of having money tied to school districts, Beitler prefers a voucher system that allows money to be tied to the students and giving students the choice of where to attend school. “One of our main complaints is the fact that so much of education has already been monopolized by the state,” Shanklin said. “What we’d like to see is more flexibility and choice. We want to enable more choice for parents.”

Burr seems to focus more on the curriculum itself. The first bill Burr introduced in Congress, the Graduate for a Better Future Act, advocated for more challenging classes, internships and work study programs. “I believe our country will not prosper longterm unless we keep innovating, and we cannot innovate unless our kids are getting the education they need to be a part of a competitive workforce,” Burr said. Marshall stresses the need to keep teachers in the classroom, pointing to the federal government’s role given the crisis of many state budgets. “Elaine’s feeling on this is Washington and Wall Street created this mess,” Swartz said. “She thinks there should be some targeted help to keep teachers in the classroom. It’s bad for our future to increase class size.” All in all, Marshall — who has worn the hats of teacher, business owner and lawyer before stepping into politics — thinks the folks on Capital Hill remain out of touch with the struggles of American citizens. “They spent too much time listening to big corporations and special interests,” Swartz said. “She’s taken on special

Burr, who’s track record has been sharply conservative and consistent with Republican leadership 94 percent of the time, pledges to remain fiscally to the right. “If you believe that our government has to be downsized and we need to figure out how to get more bang for our buck or our tax dollars,” Burr said in the second Senate debate, “then I’m asking for your support.” Staff Writer Erin Wiltgen can be reached at 8883576 or at newsdesk@tvilletimes.com.

Sports Editor WALLBURG — It is safe to say the Ledford Lady Panthers have quickly forgotten about their loss in the Mid-Piedmont Conference tournament last week. On Saturday afternoon, Ledford played one of its best games of the season from start to finish, dismantling Gray’s Creek 25-12, 25-9, 25-10 in the first round of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association 3-A state playoffs. The visiting Bears had little chance to catch their breath in the game, as LHS was constant-
ly attacking at the net. Chloe Barnes led the way with 10 kills, while Stevi Williams and Cady added seven kills each and Kaitlyn Otey had six. Emily Vernon set up 18 assists and Ray was one behind with 17. “We decided on Wednesday that we were going to find a killer instinct and that we were going to push ourselves to be consistent throughout all three games,” said coach Kara Berrier. “We have a tendency to start strong and then stop, so we have a new motto — ‘Start strong, stay strong, finish strong.’” Ledford completed phase one

of the motto, getting kills on the first three points and racing out to a 10-1 lead. Gray’s Creek would close the gap to 16-11 midway through the first game, but the Panthers put the hammer down to the end, getting four kills from four different players down the stretch. The Bears kept in better contact during the second game, trailing only 10-7 and getting offensive themselves. Ray brought the boom with a kill on the next point, and the Panthers were out of sight to the end. Ahead 16-9, the Panthers once again reeled off nine
consecutive points to reach 25, finished by a Barnes screamer to the hardwood for the kill. Williams and Ray started the attack in the third set with a pair of kills, as Ledford completed its fine day with a commanding 15point win in the third frame, finished by what else, but a kill by Williams. “In volleyball, having three days of practice in a row is rare, and that was what we needed apparently,” Berrier said. “We had very few mistakes today. Maybe we just got them all out of our system Tuesday night.” Ledford, 21-3, will host No. 2 seed Chapel Hill (22-3) today at 7.

Hurricanes blow by Tar Heels, 33-10
Hokies hammer Blue Devils in Blacksburg
BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — North Carolina entered Saturday’s game against No. 25 Miami riding a four-game winning streak and a wave of confidence after losing its first two games of the season. The Tar Heels had managed to set aside the distractions of the ongoing investigations into agents and academics and had a chance to stay in the hunt for the ACC championship game against a program it had beaten the past three seasons. Instead, UNC’s offense played one of its worst games of the season with three turnovers and the depleted defense finally showed its inexperience, as Mi-
ami took advantage for a 33-10 victory at Sun Life Stadium. The loss dropped the Tar Heels (4-3, 2-2 ACC) to fourth in the league, with games against Florida State, Virginia Tech and N.C. State still looming. Miami (5-2, 3-1) moves into second place in the Coastal Division. “It’s disappointing just because it’s a loss,” UNC senior safety Deunta Williams said. For the past three seasons, turnovers had been the difference in the games between the schools and this year proved to be no different -- except this time the Tar Heels were on the losing end. UNC got on the scoreboard first when Casey Barth capped

BY STEVE WISEMAN Durham Herald Sun BLACKSBURG, Va. — Virginia Tech brought the hammer down on Duke early Saturday and left the Blue Devils scrambling for answers. The No. 23 Hokies scored on five of six first-half possessions, routing the Blue Devils 44-7 in an ACC football game before a crowd of 66,233 at Lane Stadium. Duke (1-6, 0-4 ACC) lost its sixth consecutive game on a day when the Blue Devils offered little resistance. “Virginia Tech completely dominated us,” Duke senior safety Matt Daniels said. The Coastal Division-leading Hokies (6-2, 4-0) continued
to trend in the right direction, notching their sixth consecutive win since opening the season with losses to Boise State and James Madison. “When you play well and you have success, it builds confidence,” said Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer, who collected career win No. 235 to move past Bo Schembechler and sit alone at No. 10 on the all-time Football Bowl Subdivision wins list. “You can’t talk your way into it. You have to do it.” Duke coach David Cutcliffe and his players said they came into the game as prepared as they could be to deal with Virginia Tech’s talents.

NJCAA REPORT COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The 2010-11 NJCAA Division III Men’s Basketball Preseason Poll has been released and defending national champion Joliet Junior College (Ill.) is ranked No. 1. The Wolves finished 30-5 last year and defeated Rochester CTC (Minn.) in last season’s title game to win the program’s first men’s basketball national championship since 1994. Led by head coach Joe Kuhn, who is entering his 14th season with the Wolves, Joliet welcomes back much experience to its roster. Brandon Redmond (6’4”, 220) looked to be Joliet’s main offensive threat last year before his season got cut short due to a broken hand. In the 2008-09 season he averaged 11.6 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists a game. Starters from last season returning this year for the Wolves include Andy Supergan (6’7”, 200) and Justin Reed (6’2”, 180). Supergan was a great presence in the post for the Wolves, contributing 12.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists per contest. Reed chipped in 7.5 point and 5.0 assists a game. For the second year in a row, Bergen Community
College (N.J.) begins the season at No. 2 in the preseason rankings. The Bulldogs held the No. 1 ranking for 11 straight weeks last season, which was the longest stretch a team had held the top post in the poll since the 2007-08 season. Bergen entered last year’s national tournament with a 32-0 record before falling in the semi-finals to Rochester. The Bulldogs then settled for third place. Defending Region 15 champion Sullivan County Community College (N.Y.) is third in the rankings after a 32-3 record and a sixth place finish at the 2010 national tournament. Region 3 power Herkimer County Community College (N.Y.) and Central Lakes College (Minn.) round out the top five in the rankings. Herkimer was 33-3 a year ago and finished fourth at Danville. The Generals return three players from last year’s team. Seven of the eight teams that participated at last year’s national tournament are ranked in the Top 10 of the preseason poll. Joining Joliet, Bergen, Sullivan, Herkimer and Central Lakes in the Top 10 are Davidson County Community College at No. 6, Mountain View College (Texas) at No. 7 and Rochester at No. 8.

HAMMER From page 7 It didn’t matter, as Virginia Tech had touchdowns on three of its first four possessions on the way to a 27-0 halftime lead. “We have a bunch of young men that have done everything we’ve asked them to do, and they’re not reaping the benefits of reward,” Cutcliffe said. “That’s frustrating, and that’s one of the things we’re battling now.” Virginia Tech quarterback Tyrod Taylor turned in an outstanding performance, as the Hokies amassed 491 yards of total offense and reached the 40-point mark for the fourth consecutive game. Taylor completed 13 of 17 passes for 280 yards and three touchdowns. He also rushed six times for 47 yards, including a 12yard scamper on a thirdand-8 play in the second quarter that set up the Hokies’ third touchdown. Taylor started the scoring with a 14-yard touchdown pass to Andre Smith and later added scoring throws of 43 yards to Dyrell Roberts and 65 yards to David Wilson. “We left some people open in coverage that

Hamlin was third off pit road and fourth overvall (because Ken Schrader stayed out) when he took the green flag. “I love you, Mike. Great job of adjusting the car,” Hamlin radioed when the race was over. “Best it’s been all day. Awesome job. Pit crew, you did it right there. You got me out. Thank you, guys.” Kevin Harvick, third in the standings, stayed within striking distance with a third-place run at the .526-mile short track, as the top three drivers continued to separate themselves from the rest of the Chase field. Harvick gained 15 points on Johnson and is 62 behind the four-time defending champion. Hamlin could have a yard sale on grandfather clocks, after winning the distinctive Martinsville trophy for the fourth time and third in a row. The victory was Hamlin’s series-best seventh of the season and the 15th of his
were busted assignments,” Cutcliffe said. “Tyrod Taylor, if you give him opportunities, he’s going to make the most of them. I don’t see a quarterback playing better in the country.” Meanwhile, Duke’s offense mostly sputtered, finishing with 208 yards. Quarterback Sean Renfree completed just 12 of 32 passes for a season-low 116 yards. He also threw his 15th interception of the season. Freshman quarterback Brandon Connette led Duke in rushing with 43 yards on eight carries. But he was 0-of-4 passing with a second-quarter interception that set up Virginia Tech’s third touchdown. “We stopped drives early,” Cutcliffe said. “By the time we got to the locker room, we were shocked really.” Duke began the game with an impressive drive, attempting to score first. The Blue Devils converted a pair of third downs while advancing from their 32 to the Hokies 31. Desmond Scott ripped off a 12-yard run, and Renfree hooked up with Conner Vernon on a 17-yard pass into Virginia Tech territory. But Scott was corralled for a 5-yard loss on a play
that stalled the march. Renfree tossed an incomplete pass and was sacked on fourth down from the Hokies 38. Virginia Tech took momentum on that stop and never relinquished it. Taylor quickly led the Hokies down the field, with a 24-yard pass to Danny Coale followed by a 14-yard touchdown pass to Smith. Forced to punt on its next possession, Duke’s coverage teams slipped up again when Jayron Hosley returned a punt 61 yards to the Blue Devils 19. With 1:30 left in the first quarter, Ryan Williams scored on a 1-yard run, his first touchdown since suffering a hamstring injury on Sept 18 against East Carolina, giving the Hokies a 14-0 lead. An interception on a poorly thrown pass by Connette gave the Hokies the ball deep in Duke territory again in the second quarter. Darren Evans’ 2-yard touchdown run made it 21-0 and the rout was on. “For us to win games,” Cutcliffe said. “We have to play well in all three phases. We can’t have one side of the ball carrying another.”
career. “Who said it was over?” Hamlin said of the Chase. “I told you it wasn’t over.” Mark Martin rallied from a lap down to finish second, followed by Harvick, Kyle Busch and Johnson. Joey Logano, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Carl Edwards, Jeff Burton and Brad Keselowski completed the top 10. Harvick, who has had issues on pit road during the Chase, swapped pit crews with teammate Clint Bowyer earlier this week. Bowyer’s crew performed flawlessly, and after the race, Harvick
offered to kiss his teammate as an expression of gratitude. “Coming into this race, no one gave us a chance to even run anywhere towards the front,” said Harvick, who posted his first top-five finish in 19 starts at Martinsville. “So it’s nice to come here, get the finishes we feel like we deserve. We’ve run well over the last few years — just hadn’t got the finishes to show for it. “Great day for us. Everybody did a great job on pit road and in the pits, doing everything they had to do to keep the car up front.”

Duke dominates in exhibition game BY JOE DALY Special to the Herald Sun DURHAM — If Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith are known quantities at this point of their Duke careers, Kyrie Irving, Seth Curry and, to a lesser degree, Andre Dawkins still are forming initial impressions. So while Singler (31 points, nine rebounds and six 3-pointers) and Smith (15 points, nine assists and just two turnovers) were their usual selves in Duke’s 141-68 exhibition victory over St. Augustine’s on Saturday night at Cameron Indoor Stadium, it was the likes of Curry and Irving and Dawkins that were of greater interest. Irving dazzled in his first organized action, scoring 17 points while dishing out seven assists. It wouldn’t have taken a whole lot for Irving’s vision to give St. Aug’s trouble, but it did, anyway. The freshman point guard from New Jersey repeatedly found teammates with savvy passes, both in transition and in the half-court. He and
BLOW From page 7 a 78-yard opening drive with a 19-yard field goal. The Tar Heels then had a chance to add to their lead after an interception by Da’Norris Searcy gave them the ball on the Hurricanes’ 20, but Anthony Elzy fumbled the ball in the end zone to keep the score at 3-0. “When we had a chance to build some momentum and kind of go up on them we shot ourselves in the foot,” UNC quarterback T.J. Yates said. Miami took advantage of the turnover to drive down the field and tie the score on a 38-yard field goal by Matt Bosher. The tie didn’t last long, however. On the first play of the ensuing possession, Johnny White zigged and zagged his way 76 yards down the field for the longest run of his career to put UNC ahead 10-3. His previous high was a 54-yard run against East
Smith helped Duke hand out 38 assists on its 46 field goals. Irving also made his shots, knocking down the opening 3-pointer as part of a 30-1 Duke run to open the game. And his defense didn’t give St. Aug’s any chance to run its offense. “I felt really comfortable out there,” Irving said. “We’ve been practicing really hard lately, and our practices are a lot harder than games.” In an intra-squad scrimmage Thursday, Irving had 11 assists and just one turnover. Numbers like that give Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski confidence that his team won’t see a drop in point guard play as the Blue Devils try to replace Jon Scheyer. “I think he’s just mature — mentally, physically,” Krzyzewski said. “He’s a special player.” Curry has been around Durham longer, sitting out the 2009-10 season after transferring from Liberty. With the last name Curry — his older brother, Stephen, starred at Davidson before a
strong rookie season for Golden State, and his father, Dell, had a long NBA career knocking down 3-pointers — Seth will be expected to shoot the ball and shoot the ball well. From that standpoint, his first Duke shot didn’t disappoint — Curry drained a long-range shot from a couple steps beyond the 3-point line. He finished with 15 points and two 3-pointers. “I just open up the floor for everybody else by making shots,” Curry said. “Wherever I catch it, I feel that’s in my range and I can make a shot from there.” While Dawkins isn’t technically a new face, he will be counted on in ways he never was last year. The sophomore scored 20 points, making four 3-pointers on a night the Blue Devils made 19 3pointers. “I think I’m a lot more comfortable out there,” Dawkins said, comparing his first game of 2010-11 to a year ago. “I know exactly what I’m supposed to do out there,
Carolina earlier this season. But UNC’s offense would all but disappear after White’s long run. The Hurricanes reeled off 30 unanswered points and shut out the Tar Heels in the second half. Yates, who entered the game with just one interception, was picked off twice in the second half, and UNC was held to just 109 yards of offense in the final two quarters. “It’s tough to play a team like that because when they get momentum and when they start doing well and playing well defensively and offensively they have a lot of motivation to keep playing well,” Yates said. “We can’t get in holes against a team like that. We can’t beat ourselves against a team like that because they’re the type of team that will take advantage of your mistakes.” Miami also took advantage of UNC’s inexperience in the secondary, which took a couple
more hits because of injuries Saturday. UNC knew it would be without cornerback Charles Brown (ineligible), cornerback Kendric Burney — who still is being withheld because of the investigations — and LeCount Fantroy (shoulder) before the game, but then it lost safety Searcy and cornerback Mywan Jackson to injuries in the first half. It meant freshmen Tre Boston and Terry Shankle saw more minutes against the Hurricanes, and each was covering the receivers who caught Harris’ two touchdown passes in the second half.
and I think it shows on the court.” Otherwise, it was something of a perfunctory affair, which is to be expected when the reigning NCAA champion plays a Division II team that lost five starters and has a new coach. The best thing for Duke may be that it still impressed, even with the gap in talent. “We have a chance to be very, very good,” Krzyzewski said.

getting into drinking water, and the newest threat is pharmaceuticals. With hospitals and medical centers aplenty in Davidson County, the incumbent worries that high levels of medical chemicals run into streams and aren’t extracted during the purifying process. “We’re already finding deformed fish and male fish that can lay eggs,” Kepley said. “It kind of frightens me, and what I would like to have is to compound the river creek watershed all in Davidson County. Then we can keep all contaminates from getting into that water. That would be for our future kids and grandkids. It’s got to be done now because it takes 25 years.” But with the economy only just beginning to crawl out of recession, jobs remain the priority for most voters — and thus for most candidates. Small businesses have largely been championed as the key to surviving the economic climate. “They are the economic backbone of our whole economy, not only in the county but in the state and in the nation,” Kepley said. “They’re more important than industrial development.” Kepley says small business development has been a focus of his for some time, particularly because these companies tend to hire local and keep
GRICE From page 1 as we can on the B&Es and larcenies because those are the crimes that impact the most people in the county. This year, it looks like our commercial and residential B&Es are down. We want to keep working on that. One of the rising problems we want to continue addressing is converted drugs like oxycotin and other prescription pills. These drugs seem to behind a lot of crimes today. A lot of kids in school have access to these drugs and they are extremely addictive.” When it comes to saving money, Grice agrees with his opponent that measures such as electronic monitoring devices would be a good tool, but he warns that certain criminals shouldn’t be treated so lightly. “We have discussed the use of electronic monitoring devices,” said Grice. “We do a lot with non-violent criminals working for us and the county that benefit a lot of people. Electronic house arrest could be accepted for consideration and has been used by other law enforcement jurisdictions. My problem is these same people on electronic arrest, like the ones in for breaking and entering, are the ones causing the most problems in the community. You can save money that way, but it’s a little different after they’ve been tried.” Grice is a grizzled veteran who has seen just about everything. He plans on spending the next week doing his job and getting ready for the rigors of election day on Nov. 2. Old cowboys aren’t so much concerned about the size of the bull as they are the size of the show. Grice is more than ready for another round in the bullring.

money in the county. “I support anything Steve Googe [Director of the Economic Development Commission] can do for us in the large economic arena, but I’ve tried to work with employment training and the community college and all the folks to be sure that we can train people for new skills. I’d rather have 10 small businesses with 10 employees each than one industry with 100 employees because when that industry shuts down, all 100 jobs are gone.” A large advocate for tourism in the county, Kepley says he hopes to TUESDAY EVENING CBS PBS FOX NBC ION CW ABC MNT WLXI

wind energy. Earlier in the month, the commissioner took a trip to a wind turbine with 19 other county folks. He is currently working with North Carolina State University meteorologists on local wind currents and velocity to see if a wind turbine would be worth the county’s while. “I’m going great guns on that,” he said. “It does look promising to me. A lot of people say it’ll never work, we don’t have enough wind here. We don’t have enough wind every day, but in our area February and March are real windy months, even up into April. What I’m
interested in is how many days a year do we have where the wind velocity is more than 10 miles per hour. That’s the breaking point.” The windmill Kepley went to look at was used to power a school, an idea which intrigues the commissioner. Even if wind velocities don’t reach the benchmark every day or even half the days, Kepley says it still might be worth it. “We’ve got 365 days a year,” he said. “If you get performance out of 125 days, you take 125 days of a school where you don’t have to buy any power. That’s a big thing.”

ing issue facing the county particularly in the face of state funding troubles. “The county is really the primary administrator over education,” Kepley said. “We have rules and requirements and a lot of the curriculum that is prepared out of Raleigh, but the educators are here, and they are the ones that really get across to the students.” Another focus for Kepley is increasing the amount of green technology in the area. A supporter of the county’s solar farm and methane gas at the landfill, Kepley says his next project will be to research bringing

continue to improve on that aspect of the local economy. “The economics of tourism have grown from $80 million a year to $120 million,” he said. “I’m still trying to up that figure because there’s no way to ship that overseas. There’s no incentives to get that over here.” Kepley’s largest tourism idea rests in increased signage on major highways to promote what Davidson County has to offer, whether it be historical sites or barbecue restaurants. Hand-in-hand with bringing jobs comes education, another challeng-
