Suspect in attempted murder escapes

SOMETHING SMELLS FISHY

BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer

A huge fish kill leaving thousands of carp, crappie, bass and other fish dead in the southern end of High Rock Lake was discovered Tuesday. There has been no definitive answer to why the kill occurred.

Huge fish kill reported at High Rock Lake BY KARISSA MINN Staff Writer

Residents living near a cove at the southern end of High Rock Lake discovered a smelly, gruesome scene on Tuesday. Thousands of dead fish littered the shoreline of the Fisherman’s Cove community near St. Matthews Church Road in Salisbury. David Lineberry first noticed the fish kill when he went to the cove for bait Tuesday morning. “It was crappie, largemouth bass, brim, shad, shiners and suckerfish,” Lineberry said. Yadkin Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks said he got a call from the Tamrac Marina the same day and traveled down to investigate.

‘I went back and paddled into some coves, and the whole cove was just filled with piles of dead fish.’ — Dean Naujoks Yadkin Riverkeeper “I went back and paddled into some coves, and the whole cove was just filled with piles of dead fish,” Naujoks said. “When we do see fish kills, we usually see it in the summer.” At the annual meeting of the Yadkin Riverkeeper last Friday,

Dr. JoAnn Burkholder, professor of aquatic ecology at N.C. State University, said that raw sewage from a spill can settle into a lake bottom and potentially cause problems for three to six months after the spill took place. Sediment at the bottom could be stirred up by human activity or changes in weather, like the wind and rain experienced over the weekend, Naujoks said. This could cause algae blooms to form, which would decrease the level of dissolved oxygen in the water. “The Thomasville sewage spill — added to the fact that we have declining water quality in High Rock Lake – definitely contributed to low dissolved oxygen levels,

Governmental center to get new roof BY KARISSA MINN Staff Writer

LEXINGTON — The Thomasville governmental center soon will receive a new roof, thanks to a vote by the Davidson County Board of Commissioners at its Tuesday meeting. Dwayne Childress, county purchasing director, brought the request before the board. He said the existing roof was last renovated in 1993, and it has been leaking for a while. “It’s tearing loose around the whole perimeter,” said Rick Prevette, capital projects manager

of the county public service and works department. “There’s some punctures coming up through the fasteners.” The county awarded the winning bid to Allied Roofing for $59,800 for a mechanically fastened EPDM roof. The next lowest bid was $195 higher, Childress said. Commissioner Don Truell raised a concern that because the governmental building is in a historical district, the county may have to ask for special permission to alter it. Robert Hyatt, county manager, said that officials would follow up on that question before beginning construction.

Community Sponsor

“Since it’s just a replacement, and it’s not changing the appearance or anything, I don’t think there will be an issue there,” Hyatt said. “We’ll double check and be sure.” Also at Tuesday’s meeting, commissioners voted to accept a $60,000 grant for the Davidson County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council (JCPC). In June, the JCPC applied for a Community Based Youth Gang Prevention Grant, funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The grant is specifically targeted

Times Community Food Challenge underway BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer With need as great as ever, the Thomasville Times is hoping its seventh annual Community Food Challenge will be the biggest to date. From now until the end of the year, the Times will be collecting nonperishable food items at both its home office at the High Point Enterprise and Thomasville Parks and Recreation, located at 1 E. Main St. Donated items will go to local food pantries. “There are so many people that are suffering economically in our area and the food challenge helps to fill pantries of local assistance agencies who serve such families,” Times Editor Lisa Wall said. “If everyone were to just donate one item, it would go along way to helping stave off hunger in Thomasville.” The Times has set a goal of collecting 10,000 items this year. In 2008, nearly three dozen local businesses, churches

He was initially issued a $750,000 secured bond but had it reduced in court and was sentenced to house arrest until his trial. On Oct. 17, Gordon apparently removed a monitoring device from his leg and has not been seen or heard from since. Randolph County Sheriff ’s Office is leading the investigation and considers Gordon a threat. “[Gordon] was on a huge

and other organizations helped gather more than 9,500 food items that went to Fairgrove Family Resource Center, Cooperative Community Ministries (CCM), His Laboring Few Ministries and Citadel of Faith Christian Fellowship. All four agencies will be recipients again this year. “It always benefits our pantry every we’ve been a part of it,” Aurelia Sink, Director of CCM, said of the Community Food Drive Challenge. “It does help bring up our supply as we have a lot of folks coming in this time of year requesting food. Last year was very trying. We had a lot of requests. We expect it to be at least the same this year if not more.” Parks and Recreation stepped in last year when the Times office moved from its Turner Street office to High Point at 210 Church Ave. TPR Director Billy Freeman said his organization is looking forward to helping out again.

BUSINESS

Watch them grow TaylorMade

Good relationship management, according to Emotional Intelligence expert Daniel Goleman, includes developing others. Managers and Supervisors will quickly acknowledge that developing people is an important aspect of their jobs. But clearly they’ve got company… What about parents? Teachers? Health care workers? Production line associates? Have you have ever taught another person at work how to do their job better? Many of us have and with good reason. If every team is only as strong as its weakest link, then new knowledge or skills gained by the ‘least of these’ benefits all. How DO you develop someone else? Give advice? Point out their mistakes? Light a fire under them? Read them the riot act? Yes, you may do all these things at times. But I find that these tactics are used all too often, while better ones are underutilized. Here are three steps to developing others that works in a wide variety of applications. SHOW RESPECT This is so basic, yet so key. Sometimes adult learners young and old (and aren’t we all having to learn these days?) are afraid of failure, disappointment, loss of status or employment. This fearful state is NOT con-

ducive to personal/professional growth. On the contrary, such individuals tend to hunker down, dig in their heels and appear totally disinterested in development opportunities ~ all because of fear. Showing respect helps melt that fear, and allows the person to open up to the possibility of a better outcome. Here’s one example… Ray was an experienced tech in a manufacturing facility who knew his stuff. When a new program came into the facility that impacted the technical side, he was quick to point out every potential flaw and kick up some noise about how it wasn’t going to work. In a situation like this, the sound people developer has to ask himself: So what is the REAL goal here? Is it to make Ray tow the line, or to launch a successful program? If the real goal is the latter, than it is more effective to develop Ray ~ to use his expertise to build a solid team who will ensure success. It starts with showing respect for his skills, his skepticism (which can be a strong team’s best friend) and his influence with others. You can expect that he respect you, as well. Given all that, Ray became a valuable asset to the team and the program, not the troublemaker he was predicted to be.

ASK QUESTIONS Giving advice isn’t often isn’t the best way

to develop others ~ particularly when they have some knowledge or ability in the area being developed. Hands down, it is far better to ask questions. Be sure to include these: • What do YOU think? • How do you think it should be done? • Could you show me your idea? • What option do think is best? • What is the best/ worst case here? Empowering others in this way builds on the respect mentioned above. You demonstrate respect by just asking these questions. You offer support by making it OK to try – even OK to fail – but NOT OK to do nothing. Parents of young adults, consider this as your child starts to navigate the grown-up world. It is very tempting to advise, but better to ask good questions and watch them grow into healthy, functioning adults.

ENCOURAGE To encourage – to put courage into – is the final point in this three point lesson. If you’re sending someone out to try something new, untested and challenging, do it with some added courage…YOURS. Remind them of past successes; point out steps they have already taken, or skills already in place that will contribute to a good outcome. Once I was working with a colleague in a challenging environment far away from home.

A lot of people were depending on his work to be well organized and smoothly functioning. For some reason, he was at an impasse when it came to completing one critical task. I knew he could do the work and started offering several suggestions about how he might approach it. The next morning he was all smiles and showed me a spreadsheet that worked. I hoped one of my suggestions made the difference. But it wasn’t one my suggestions at all. He told me it was something I said just before I walked away. Apparently it clicked when I said: ”You’ll get it…You know how to do this and you do work like this all the time.” Show respect. Ask questions. Encourage. And be around to watch them grow.

Government by Holiday Inn Express VIEWPOINT

MONA CHAREN Syndicated Columnist You’ve seen those commercials in which an airline pilot, or surgeon, or nuclear engineer is giving expert advice only to acknowledge eventually to his nonplussed listeners that while he is not actually a fill-in-the-blank, he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Do you ever get the feeling that we are getting Holiday Inn Express government? Does anything they say make basic economic sense? President Obama and the Democratic Party propose to save money (or what they call “bend the cost curve”) on health care spending. They will spend less, they say, but also cover more people — the 47 million or 30 million uninsured (Obama has used both numbers). This will be accomplished without reducing care for anyone and without raising taxes on anyone except the rich. In fact, care will be improved. Sounds great. But do these people know what they’re doing? They mouth the words “choice” and “competition” but only, ironically, in praise of a “public option.” The concept of encouraging choice and competition in the health insurance market — say by permitting interstate sales — is off the table. The Wall Street Journal provided a handy chart of “Uncle Sam’s Cost Overruns.” In 1965, when Medicaid was enacted, the House Ways and Means Committee estimated that first year costs would amount to about $238 million. The actual price was $1 billion. The program now costs $251 billion annually and is climbing fast. The record is similar for Medicare. In 1965, Congress predicted that by 1990, Medicare would be costing $12 billion. The actual cost — $90 billion. As Peter Orszag, director of the Office of Management and Budget has admitted, “If costs per enrollee in Medicare and Medicaid grow at the same rate over the next four decades as they have over the past four, those two programs will increase from 5 percent of GDP today to 20 percent by 2050.” So the same people who brought you cost spirals in Medicare and Medicaid now propose to introduce another government health program. Don’t worry, they assure us, we know how to provide ef-

ficiencies. It’s not necessary to dwell on the risible claim that they will cut half a trillion in waste from the Medicare budget. If they know where that waste is, why aren’t they cutting it now? Where, on the books, are the federal waste-cutting initiatives? The administration has also highlighted two other ideas that will supposedly provide tremendous cost savings. Both have been in the news lately. Starting during the campaign, President Obama touted digital medical records to reduce errors, improve care, and cut costs. More than $19 billion of stimulus funds were earmarked for it. But when the Washington Post examined the matter, they discovered that digital records not only fail to produce the promised benefits, they actually reduce efficiency and cause errors. The digital systems currently available give physicians too much information. Pages upon pages of digital information document every conceivable ailment a patient might have. Doctors have difficulty wading through all of the unnecessary data to reach the critical information. One emergency room physician at a hospital that had adopted a digital system complained, “It’s been a complete nightmare. I can’t see my patients because I’m at a screen entering data ... Physician productivity and satisfaction have fallen off a cliff.” Some hospitals have adopted digital systems only to abandon them. Another silver bullet the administration has peddled is preventive care. Everyone knows that a timely PSA test will detect prostate cancer at an early and treatable phase thus saving the patient’s life and saving money, right? Not exactly. The test is obviously worthwhile for that individual. But testing all men for prostate cancer — an overwhelming majority of whom will never get the disease — is expensive. If more and more of us are tested for more and more diseases — even accounting for some illnesses found early — health spending will rise, not fall. Further complicating the picture, the National Cancer Society has announced that the benefits of cancer screenings, particularly for breast and prostate cancers, have been oversold. They aren’t saving very many lives, but they are causing needless tests and surgeries. The Baucus bill — even before being melded with House versions — weighed in at 1,502 pages of new taxes, fees, and mandates. Every single page proclaims something that is dubious — that the Democrats know what they are doing.

Letters to the Editor To the Editor Recently, I was afforded the opportunity to sit down and talk to mayoral candidate Terry L. Hill. I wish that the people of Thomasville know just a bit about Mr. Hill prior to the upcoming election on Nov. 3. It was a pleasure to sit down with Mr. Hill and listen to some of his ideas for the growth of Thomasville. I was very impressed with Mr. Hill’s knowledge of Thomasville’s history and his apparent understanding of how local government is supposed to function. I believe that given the opportunity, Mr. Hill will do an outstanding job as mayor, and I hope that the citizens of Thomasville will give him that opportunity come Nov. 3. It says a lot that Mr. Hill would take over an hour of his own personal time to sit down with me, just an ordinary citizen of our great city, to express his views and concerns, as well as future plans that he has for putting Thomasville on a long term plan for success. Mr. Hill is a lifelong resident of Thomasville and after my conversation with him I am certain that he has Thomasville’s best interest at heart. So why don’t we do ourselves a favor and put Mr. Hill in office! Dustin Hunt Thomasville

To the Editor I don’t know about the one trick pony Barney Hill was referring to the night he addressed the Thomasville City Council on July 20, but I agree with his assessment on the referendum changing the terms of Mayor and City Council. The April 2003 referendum was initiated by a petition signed by more than 10 percent of the registered voters in Thomasville and passed in a fair and free election. The initiative to change the terms of the electoral process this November was initiated not by the voters, but by Council. This is a red flag as to who benefits from the passage of this referendum. Staggered four-year terms increase cost to challengers, and increase the difficulty of defeating incumbents. Incumbents have name recognition, a voter base and time for the electorate to forget votes they rather not discuss. If they are good at recycling their signs (and many are) they may never have to spend money to get reelected. Continuity of government is a fancy term used when outside interests and elected officials become comfortable in the decision

making process with each other. Ordinary citizens usually don’t benefit from such arrangements. “Outside interests” count on keeping their contacts on Council and letting them bring along new members. Elections every two years will keep council more focused on governing for the people and hopefully keep the influence of “outside groups” to a minimum. I was one of two council members at the time that supported at-large elections every two years. I believed then, as now, it would weaken political machines and special interests giving challengers a better opportunity to win and increase participation in the political process. Staggered terms with fewer available positions will decrease the opportunity for minority representation and people of moderate incomes to participate. We face learning curves everyday in life. Preparing and serving on Council is not rocket science. Attend Council and Committee meetings for a year and research the issues. I did it and I get embarrassed watching “Are you smarter than a 5th grader?” with my son. So there you have it, VOTE NO, not once, but TWICE against Charter Amendment 1 and Charter Amendment 2. The only people to benefit from a change in the voting process are the incumbents and special interest groups. Even a rocket scientist and a one trick pony can figure that out. Dwight D. Cornelison Thomasville City Council 1999-2007

To the Editor In a letter that appeared on this page on Oct. 22, 2009, E. Thompson Smith Jr. endorsed Charter Amendment 2. He likes staggered terms. His rationale was heavy on “continuity.” He cited the Davidson County Board of Commissioners as a model to emulate. Except for a hiatus in 2004-2006, Billy Joe Kepley has been a commissioner since 1990. Since Larry Potts and Fred McClure joined the board in 1994, only in 2002-2004 did we have to do without them. Don Truell, Sam Watford and Max Walser have served continuously since 2002. Add to that the year almost completed by Cathy Dunn, and the total comes to 65. It would be difficult to find a better showcase for “continuity.” But do we really want to remake the Thomasville City Council in the image of the Davidson County

EMAIL: Editor@tvilletimes.com FAX: 888-3632 MAIL: Letters to the Editor Thomasville Times 210 Church Ave. High Point, N.C. 27262

Board of Commissioners? Before you answer that question in the affirmative, review our commissioners’ recent antics in the search for a site for the new jail, the creation of the fire service districts, the revision of the land development plan, and the purchase of the Davidson Country Day School property. A board composed entirely of rookies could not have embarrassed us more. Maybe experience teaches the wrong lessons. Maybe longtime incumbents begin to regard themselves as infallible. Maybe they get sloppy because they start to believe the propaganda disseminated by the evangelists on “continuity.” Thomasville Jefferson maintained that the tree of liberty must be periodically fertilized with the blood of patriots and tyrants. But I don’t hold with violence. I will settle for making the members of the Thomasville City Council sit a little less comfortably in their chairs. That’s why, on Oct. 15, 2009, I voted NO on Charter Amendment 2. Barney Hill Thomasville

To the Editor I wasn’t going to write you, but I felt this was too important of an issue to not say anything. Some of the people on our City Council here in Thomasville would have you think that running for re-election every two years is a bad thing, but I beg to differ. What they don’t like about the two-year terms is they can and will be held accountable to the citizens of Thomasville every two years. I’ve been around a long time, and I’ve seen how politics work. On some occasions when they have four-year terms, it seems that if an issue comes up that’s not popular with the citizens of Thomasville, the ones that are not up for reelection will be the very ones to push the issue, and if you pay attention, the ones up for reelection in most cases don’t want anything to do with it. And as far back as I can remember, the mayor has been and should stay a two-year term. So I urge all of my friends and neighbors in Thomasville to vote against this referendum. Vote NO in the City Council race and NO in the mayor’s race. Remember, you have to vote NO twice against this referendum. Don Swink Thomasville

“This is our second year as a drop-off point and we’re glad to be a part of it,� Freeman said. “It’s a very worthy event. The economy is tough and people are out of work. Even those who aren’t out of work have less money. We just hope that those who have will come through for those who don’t.� People donating at the TPR office are asked to pull around to the back and walk to the front door. The office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and somebody will be there to help unload any donations.

SUSPECT From page 1 bond but he got it reduced to $1,000,� Randolph County Sheriff Maynard Reid said. “He was placed under electronic house arrest, but that was nothing more than leg band with a monitor on it. He cut if off and now he’s absconded, he’s gone. He didn’t want to play by the rules. We’re looking for him. We consider him armed and dangerous because he has already shot one man. We’re looking for him real hard and want to get him back in custody. We’ll get him.� Reid believes Gordon is still in the Thomasville and Davidson County area. RCSO detectives are working with Thomasville police and the Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office to bring Gordon back in. Reid said Gordon managed to get his bond reduced due to several factors like showing he had a steady job and a family, but that avenue won’t be open the next time. Davidson County Sheriff David Grice said he’s happy those options aren’t available in his jurisdiction. “We helped when they arrested him initially,� said Grice. “We trying to help locate him again for his connections in the area. We think he moves back and forth between Silver Valley and Thomasville. The allegations

against him are pretty severe. “I don’t know who made the decision [to reduce Gordon’s bond] but I’m glad we don’t have that here. I thought that was typically reserved for non-violent offenders to help reduce overcrowding in the jails. He was already hard to catch.� Gordon’s son, Dustin, and five other people also were arrested for their role in the altercation at 5985 Jim Pierce Road in Trinity that left Toby McDowell shot and Trevor Kindley suffering from multiple stab wounds. Reid said Dustin Gordon is still accounted for. Anyone with information on Charles Gordon’s whereabouts is asked to call RCSO at 318-6699 or Randolph County Crime Stoppers at 672-7463. “Unfortunately, we can’t be everywhere all the time,� Reid said. “We depend on our citizens out here to be our eyes and ears. If someone gives us a call, we’ll certainly try to apprehend this fool and get him off the street before he hurts somebody else.� Reid said the two victims have been notified of Gordon’s situation for their own safety. A condition of Gordon’s bond says he can’t come within a certain amount of feet of the men. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.

Sports Editor Several weeks ago, fans of the Thomasville Bulldogs were not thinking about a Central Carolina Conference championship, rather wondering when they would see another win. A win finally did come to break a fourgame skid, and now four shutouts and wins later, THS is busy preparing on the eve of what could be a Central Carolina Conference title. To do it, they will have to beat a quality Salisbury squad Friday night at Cushwa Stadium. Salisbury had no problem whipping Lexington 57-6, and the Bulldogs motored past West Davidson 42-0 last week. Now, the two will meet as one will gain at least of share of the championship, and will have the inside track to win it outright with one more week to play. “Anytime a game can decide a conference champion, I’d say it is a pretty big game,” said Thomasville head coach Allen Brown. Not often can a team match the speed of the Bulldogs, but the Hornets can do just that and some. Averaging over 44 points in three conference games, it is hard to compete with Salisbury on both sides of the ball. “These guys overall our faster than we

Davidson Golden Eagles Eagle Stadium 7:30 p.m. Southern Guilford Storm @ Ledford Panthers Panther Stadium 7:30 p.m. are, and that is one of our huge concerns,” Brown said. “They have skill people that are really fast and their defense is quick. They are explosive and will be a handful for us.” Much of the Hornet offense runs through the hands of Romar Morris. He is averaging over 100 yards per game rushing and has 15 total touchdowns. Nearing 1,000 yards for the season, he is tough to contain in the option offense. Thomasville’s defense has not allowed a point in over a month, but three of those shutouts have come against conference opponents with a combined record of 2-7 in the league. If the Hornets have similar success Friday as they have in the previous three games, it will be an uphill battle for THS.

DCCC volleyball earns berth into district round BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor Kevin Hammond had a feeling his Davidson County Community College volleyball team might be pretty special this season. His speculation was right, as the Storm is only one game away from the NJCAA Division III national championships. This past weekend, DCCC traveled to Sandhills Community College and came away with the Region X title. Their efforts have now earned them a spot in the district round, where they will play Passaic Community College in Paterson, N.J. Getting the opportunity to play in the next round

was not as easy as expected, as the Storm dropped their first game of the conference season to Sandhills in the championship. But despite being fatigued from a previous g a m e , DCCC put it together when it had to in claiming a 23-25, 2523, 25-19, Hammond 25-12 victory. “I was at a loss because it was almost like they were dead,” said Hammond of the first set loss. “We were running our offense and the proper defense, but everything was like in slow

motion. They finally woke up and realized this was for the plane ride to New Jersey.” The trip should bring plenty of excitement for the ladies. A couple of them have never flown before, and a rigourous schedule on Friday will be quite tiring for them. Hammond said the team plans to meet at 4 a.m. on Friday, and head for the Raleigh-Durham International Airport. The plane is expected to land in Newark, N.J. at around 11 and the team will participate in an early afternoon practice. A banquet will be held later in the day, then the players will get

Panthers eye tough game with Storm BY MATTHEW AMICK Times Correspondent The Ledford Panthers look for another important Mid-Piedmont 3-A conference victory as they host the Southern Guilford Storm this Friday on Senior Night. “They are a good solid team and they are coming off of a big win against North Forsyth last week,” said Panthers head coach Chuck Henderson. The Storm (5-4, 2-1) edged the Raiders 10-6, after losing 28-0 to Northeast Guilford the week prior. Junior running back Warren Scott, at 5’6 and 150 pounds, is an Henderson explosive package in Southern’s backfield. The Panthers (5-4, 2-1) overcame a lackluster first half against Asheboro, but dominated the second half and beat the Blue Comets 21-13. Strong defensive play kept Ledford in the game and Jack Shelton sparked their offense with three touchdowns. Quarterback Steven Fuquay finished 11 of 20 in passing, giving Ledford a balanced attack. The key factor was the defense of the Panthers who stopped the Comets on two fourth down conversions and held their offense to a total of 64 yards for the entire second half. “We just tell the kids that we have to go out there and play hard and take care of our end of the bargain, and if we can do that we will be playing for a conference championship next week up at Northeast,” said Henderson. W. Davidson @ E. Davidson East Davidson will try to stay afloat in the Central Carolina 2-A conference as they welcome West Davidson to their home field. The Golden Eagles (4-5, 1-2) almost pulled off a victory last week at Central Davidson, but fell short 21-14. East’s defense has played extremely well, considering the losses of two starting linebackers, and they will have to continue to execute on offense and impose their brand of smash-mouth football in the remaining two games. The Dragons (2-7, 0-3) will be looking for their first conference win, coming off a rough loss to Thomasville, 42-0.

Yates taking criticism in stride BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates hears the criticism. He hears it on campus when he’s going to class, and when he walks off the field after a loss.

CLASH From page 7 “If it gets to be a track meet, we are going to be in real trouble because we cannot match that,� Brown said. “They are going to want a high scoring game but we are going to want it to be a field position type game.� Offensively, the Bulldogs are getting better with each passing week. The scoring average is rising and the big plays have been plentiful, but a fast Salisbury defense should be able to deter a lot of what Thomasville likes to do. Quarterback Sam Nelson is 51 yards away from 1,000 yards passing, and could be the wild card in the game as SHS will do everything it can to stop the rushing attack of Kesean Green and Quin Riley. If Nelson can spread out the Hornet defense and open up the run, Thomasville stands a good chance of wrapping up the league crown. That is if they can prevent Salisbury from executing the same plan. “We are going to have a difficult time getting big plays with their speed,� said Brown. “Once you can’t get big plays, now you have to execute, get your assignments right and take care of the ball. They are an attack de-

just one of two winless teams in the conference — the other being N.C. State — and they sit at the bottom of the ACC after talking in the preseason about winning the conference championship. But getting a victory over the Hokies is easier said than done. Virginia Tech (5-2, 3-1) is 9-2 in Thursday night games played at Lane Stadium and has beaten UNC (4-3, 0-3) in the past five meetings. Earlier in the week, UNC coach Butch Davis said he thinks this year’s Virginia Tech team is the

Heels aren’t producing wins, but he’s also disappointed in some of the results. “[The criticism] is getting laid on a little bit more thicker than in year’s past, but it’s the kind of thing I’ve learned to deal with,� Yates said. There is no question Yates’ interceptions have hurt the Tar Heels the past few games, but there have been other offensive and defensive breakdowns. His interception in the third quarter of Thursday’s game — which he called a stupid decision — only gave the Seminoles the ball on

The junior has thrown eight interceptions along with seven touchdown passes this season and has one of the lowest passer efficiency ratings in the ACC. Yates admitted that he’s played better in the past, but he’s also working with a young and inexperienced offense this year. After the 2008 season, his top three receivers left for the NFL and the offensive line has been plagued with injuries all season. Yates said he understands why the fans are frustrated since the Tar

Yates, who threw for 64 yards and one interception, said that besides obscene things being yelled, he got hit in the helmet with either a pin or coin as he walked off the field. “It’s hard not to hear about all that stuff, but

SPORTS LIFE From page 8 best the Hokies have had since the 1999-2000 squad, led by Michael Vick, that played for a national championship. “Going to Virginia Tech is always a challenge from the standpoint of crowd noise,” Davis said. “It’s something your football team has got to be prepared for. This is probably one of the best Virginia Tech teams I’ve seen probably in the last eight or 10 years.” The Hokies boast the second-best rushing attack in the ACC thanks mostly to running back Ryan Williams. The freshman leads the league in rushing yards and is the seventh-leading rushing in the nation with 119.14 yards per game. Containing Williams will be one of the toughest challenges UNC’s seventh-ranked defense has faced this season, as the Heels are giving up just 102.6 yards on the ground per game.

“They’re a very physical offense,” Wilson said. “They like to run the ball downhill, which is my kind of game. I like a physical, downhill running kind of game where it’s mano-a-mano. It’s you either man up or you can’t play this game.” But Williams’ isn’t the Hokies’ only offensive threat. Quarterback Tyrod Taylor is ranked fourth nationally in pass efficiency, having thrown just three interceptions compared to nine touchdowns this season. He’s a mobile, athletic quarterback that can keep broken plays alive. “He makes plays,” Davis said. “He’s got a 159 quarterback efficiency rating, and that’s about as high as I guess you can get.” But even though the Hokies are heavily favored on paper, the Tar Heels have kept it close the past two years. Virginia Tech won 17-10 in 2007, and a year ago in Chapel Hill, UNC led by two touchdowns before the Hokies rallied to es-

cape with a 20-17 victory. Wilson said he expects this year’s game to be another low-scoring affair since Virginia Tech’s defense is ranked fifth in the ACC. “We got a battle coming in here [tonight],” Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer said. “This North Carolina team is ranked seventh in the nation in total defense. … [It’s] a very, very good, talented defense.” The Tar Heels said they need a win tonight to get back in the win column and get some confidence, but they also need a victory to help their postseason chances. UNC needs to finish at least 3-2 the rest of the way if it wants to earn a bowl bid — something the players said they’re not thinking about just yet. “I’m not too worried about the bowl game, I’m just worried about [today’s] game,” wide receiver Greg Little said. “I think if you intend to look at things like that your season will slip away.”

DCCC celebrates its Region X championship last weekend.

EARNS From page 7 some time to relax before the game at 11 a.m. on Saturday. The Panthers have a 165 record, and are paced by Camen Santos, Carmen Castillo and Rafaela Ramierez. It was a slow start for Passaic this season, as they held a 4-5 record through nine games. They are currently in the midst of a 12-game winning streak, though, and will have a decisive advantage playing on its home floor. Hammond knows little about them, but continues to express how important it was for his team to play such a tough nonconference schedule in preparation for a game like this. “They look almost like a mirror image of us except we might have a height advantage,” said Hammond. “This

STRIDE From page 8 their 3, but FSU turned it into a 98-yard touchdown that cut UNC’s lead to four. “When I threw that interception, ... it kind of turned the whole game around,” Yates said. “I’m pretty hard on myself about things like that, so I took it pretty hard after the game and the day after. “I’ve got to look at the situation and kind of see what I can do better.” Despite Yates’ struggles, teammates said they still have full confidence in him. The team recent-

game right here is why I scheduled all of these harder schools in hopes of giving my team some hard games to physically and mentally get them ready.” Hammond has coached at both the high school and Junior Olympic level, reaching some big games during his time. But a win Saturday and berth into the national championships would put him in some uncharted waters. He also wouldn’t mind one more plane ride to Rochester, Minn. in mid-November. “I would love to take this team all the way to the top because it would be a first for me,” he said.

ly voted Yates — along with Quan Sturdivant, E.J. Wilson, Kendric Burney and Kyle Jolly — as permanent captains. Junior wide receiver Greg Little said he still trusts Yates completely and that the offense needs to help him out more. “I feel like he needs more guys around him to give him a place to go with the ball,” Little said. “I feel like we need to work harder to get open, as well as our line needs to block to give more time for him to throw the ball. … “It’s not T.J.’s fault, and I feel like there’s some things that we can do as a whole offense to better his situation.”

No television

Science taking off

Remember, in 1938, TV was still being perfected. Most American homes had radios, though. Families sat around the radio in the evening listening to funny or dramatic shows or their favorite sports games. Americans had great confidence in reports they heard on the radio. Along with entertainment, radio was a source of news.

Americans in the 1930s had great interest in science and science fiction. Airplanes, cars, TV and other technology were developing very quickly. All these things combined to make people more likely to believe the broadcast. The Mini Page thanks Richard J.

FROM PAGE 1 ROOF From page 1 toward gang prevention and intervention, and it requires no matching funds from the county. “The first part of the grant would allow us to do an assessment process and try to get a better handle on what the [juvenile crime] situation is in our county,� Hyatt said. “Based on the data that’s collected, we would then develop intervention programs to help deal with that.� The assessment phase is projected to finish in August 2011.

YMCA branches, local parks and recreation departments, the Family Services after school program, the Family Services Structure Day Program, faith-based programs, and the 21st Century program in Thomasville City Schools. The program is designed to raise gang awareness and teaches participants conflict resolution, communication and leadership skills. It also incorporates the involvement of parents and community leaders.

The JCPC states in its request letter that it does not have consistent data collection from law enforcement, schools, public agencies or private agencies to determine the level of gang activity and gang-related crime in the county. The only agency collecting data is the Lexington City Police Department, which has identified 120 gang members in the county. The request letter says that Davidson County ranks seventh out of North Carolina’s 100 counties in gang activity. The JCPC plans to implement the Boys and Girls Club Street SMART program in community agencies and programs like local

KILL

From page 1 and it indirectly or directly contributed to this fish kill,� Naujoks said. Susan Massengale, public information officer with the N.C. Division of Water Quality, said that the state actually has not found any evidence that the kill was connected to the wastewater spill. “We sent our investigators out there to take a look, and we took some measurements out there,� Massengale said. “We didn’t see any indication that it was anything other than a natural occurrence.� Investigators checked water temperature, dissolved oxygen levels, pH levels and conductivity. Massengale said that the fish kill could be explained by lake turnover, the natural mixing of a lake at this time of year. In the spring, the sun warms the surface waters of a lake to create stratification, where there are warm upper layers and cooler lower layers that

do not mix. Then, in the fall, surface water cools and becomes denser, causing it to sink and begin to mix with the deeper water layers. Heavy rains and high winds can add to this mixing process. “For a time, you’ve got that low-oxygen water throughout the entire water column while it’s still beginning to mix,� Massengale said. “If fish that get caught in that, they die, because there isn’t enough oxygen in the water.� Naujoks said that normally, only smaller varieties of fish will be trapped by lake turnover, because larger ones can usually swim away. The fish littering the coast of High Rock Lake, he said, include seven to eightpound carp and fourpound bass. The large number and variety of dead fish can be explained by the area’s geography, Massengale said. The cove is separated from the lake by a culvert under a bridge, creating a pond with water four to five feet deep. Fish gathered in this area and

likely found it difficult to swim out of it when oxygen levels dropped. Lineberry, who has lived in the area his whole life, said that even small fish kills are not common. The last time he saw a large kill like this was during the 2002 drought. Still, he isn’t sure that contaminated water from North Hamby Creek could have settled in the cove. “[Naujoks] says it’s backed up from Thomasville,� Lineberry said. “How is it going to come through this culvert to get down here?� Lineberry said that he thinks the cause is more likely to be hydrogen from nearby farm fertil-

izer runoff, but he doesn’t know who to believe. “I’ll go up on my boat, go into these creeks, and get soil samples and water samples,� Lineberry said. “Then, somebody can test them and tell me where it’s coming from.� Lineberry said that he may have to find a new fishing spot now. “I’m not going to spend my money fishing on High Rock Lake again,� Lineberry said. “I believe I might go to the Yadkin. The fish might be safer up that way.� Staff Writer Karissa Minn can be reached at 888-3576 or newsdesk@ tvilletimes.com.

Progress, Duke Energy receive Recovery Act funding TIMES STAFF REPORT

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Kay R. Hagan (D-NC) Wednesday announced a major federal grant for Raleighbased Progress Energy and Charlotte-based Duke Energy to build a smart energy grid that will deliver energy to costumers more efficiently. Progress and Duke Energy will receive $200 million each as part of a nationwide investment of more than $3 billion to spur the transition to a smart energy grid. The funding was made available by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. “Putting smart energy meters in homes and upgrading our energy grid will lower electricity bills for small businesses and hardworking North Carolina families,” said Hagan. “Our energy grid is supported by Thomas Edison-era technology.
