Former sheriff seeks re-election BY KARISSA MINN Staff Writer
Former Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege has confirmed that he will run for re-election in 2010 as a Republican. “I loved the job, and I had a good time and lot of fun,” Hege said. “I just wanted people to have the chance to have a voice and actually go to the polls and say, ‘We want that guy’ or not.” Originally, Hege proposed that if Davidson County residents put out
200 “Vote for Hege” signs by Thanksgiving, he would continue to seek support until Christmas. If he saw 500 signs by Christmas, he would continue work until February and decide whether or not he would file. Having met his Christmas goal four times over, Hege said he now knows what his decision will be. “I’ve won six elections, and I’ve never had more than 500 or 600 signs out, but now I’ve got more than 2,000,” he said. “Some politicians would
crawl from Washington, D.C., on their hands and knees to get 2,000 people to ask for a sign. I’m not calling people up, I’m not running ads in the paper, but we’ve got people driving from Wallburg and all over to get them.” Hege said that he would bring crime back down in the county and listed some of his accomplishments in office, including the establishment of a round-the-clock check on the elderly and the first 24-7 drug interdiction team in North Carolina.
He also said he was the only sheriff to have Ku Klux Klan members turn in their robes and disband their group. The former sheriff ’s time in office also sparked plenty of controversy. In May of 2004, he pleaded guilty to two felony counts of obstruction of justice for attempting to cover up money missing from the vice and narcotics unit of the sheriff ’s department. He was removed from office and

Benefits extended to unemployed BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
Out-of-work North Carolinians whose unemployment benefits were set to expire are getting a lifeline from the United States Senate. The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 last week passed the Senate by a 98-0 vote, extending unemployment insurance benefits for up to 20 weeks in states that have been hit the hardest by the national recession, including North Carolina. “My colleagues and I voted to extend unemployment benefits for hundreds of thousands of out of work Americans,” Sen. Kay Hagan (R-NC) said. “In North Carolina, the struggling economy has wreaked havoc on hardworking families. Unemployment in our state is at a staggering rate of nearly 11 percent, and this benefits extension will help more than 32,000 North Carolinians when they need it most.” Across the country, there are currently more than 5 million workers who have been unemployed for at least 27 weeks. This demographic makes up more than a third of all unemployed workers in the United States, marking the highest percentage in history. The 20-week extension, aimed at states like North Carolina, whose unemployment rate is above 10

Thomasville High School student Natali Bravi works on some cartoons for the school’s new newspaper, “Mad Dog Dialogue,” Monday.
THS revives school newspaper BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer A group of students at Thomasville High School are putting their collective heads together and bringing to life a Bulldog tradition that dates back before most of them were even born. Mad Dog Dialogue, a school newspaper comprised mainly of THS students, re-launched last month with its October edition, bringing the publication back into circulation following a seven-year hiatus. Complete with pictures, opinions and a variety of unique stories from a much different perspective, Mad Dog Dialogue is opening the minds of a generation raised on the In-

ternet. “We took a survey of what we would like to see in our paper,” Senior William Cook, Mad Dog’s sports editor, said. “We tried to get a little bit of everything and mix it all up and make one good, solid school newspaper.” Plans for the re-launch of the paper began in September with the staff brainstorming different story ideas. When word began to spread regarding the paper, Nicole Winsley, a THS English teacher who also serves as Mad Dog’s advisor, said around 50 students showed interest. Attrition cut that number in half and there are currently 35 students involved with putting the monthly publication together. Winsley said she isn’t sure why the paper
faded away seven years ago. “We got a lot of input into how the paper was produced in the past,” said Winsley. “They have been working really hard and it has been all them so far. Everything in the first edition, from the ideas to the articles to the layout, was done by the students. They really realized how much time and thought went into creating an article from scratch. They realized that when you write and article every single word is yours. It takes critical thinking and using creative skills.” With one edition under their belts, students are excited about the coming months and being able to use what they’ve learned

Thomasville City Council will discuss the amendment of four merchants ordinances at its Nov. 16 meeting and plans to take action on three of them. Various small changes to the ordinances concerning itinerant merchants, yard sales and solicitation and canvassers have been made by the public safety committee and will be voted on at the meeting. These changes include criminal background checks for itinerant merchants, solicitors and canvassers; the prohibition of “for profit” yard sales except on residential property and for charitable organizations; and a limit of three times per year for permits to conduct yard sales on specific residential premises. An informal public hearing will be held about modifications to the flea market ordinance, including a requirement for sufficient off-street parking and an allowance for natural foliage screening instead of solid wooden fencing. No action will be taken until a formal public hearing can be scheduled. Also at the Nov. 16 meeting, Martin Starnes and Associates will present council with its annual financial report. In addition, council will discuss the adoption of

Cornerstone Health Care practices move into new medical plaza
Premier Medical Plaza, a new 128,000-square-foot outpatient medical facility located at 4515 Premier Drive, at the corner of Wendover Avenue, will open on Monday, Nov. 16. The building — a joint venture between CHC Realty, LLC, and High Point Regional Health System — is completely leased, and the first practices to move in include Deep River Family Medicine, Piedmont Centre Family and Sports Medicine, Cornerstone Premier Care, Premier Med Spa, Cornerstone Pediatrics at Premier, Cornerstone Internal Medicine at Premier, and Cornerstone Urgent Care. Cornerstone Laboratory Services will open a phlebotomy station on the second floor and a lab and second phlebotomy station on the fourth floor. Deep River Family Medicine and Cornerstone Premier Care, which includes Premier Med Spa, a service offering microdermabrasion and thera-
peutic massage, are moving from across the street on Premier Drive to the new building. Piedmont Centre Family and Sports Medicine is a new practice opening at Premier Medical Plaza. Cornerstone Internal Medicine at Premier is currently a satellite office of Cornerstone Internal Medicine/High Point, which will move its main office in the High Point Medical Center to the new building in April 2010. Until then, the practice’s five physicians will see patients at Premier Medical Plaza on a rotating basis. Cornerstone Pediatrics at Premier will move from across the street while Cornerstone Pediatrics’ central High Point office will move from the High Point Medical Center to Cornerstone Health Care at Westchester on the same day. The next wave of moves will occur in January 2010, and with two exceptions, include the opening of satellite offices for Cornerstone specialty practices. Cornerstone
Endocrinology is a new practice established by the two Cornerstone endocrinologists currently practicing in different locations. Cornerstone Behavioral Medicine will move its main office from central High Point to Premier Medical Plaza and will open a second office at Cornerstone Health Care at Westchester in April 2010. The specialty practices opening satellite offices in Premier Medical Plaza in early 2010 include High Point Gastroenterology, (Cornerstone Gastroenterology at Premier), Cornerstone Cardiology, Piedmont Urological Associates, High Point ENT Associates, Cornerstone Audiology, High Point Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, Emerywood Hematology/Oncology, Cornerstone Neurology, and Cornerstone Surgery. The last two practices have also moved their main offices from the High Point Medical Center to Cornerstone Health Care at Westchester.
Room dedicated in surgeon’s honor TIMES STAFF REPORT
Cornerstone Health Care recently held a ceremony honoring the late surgeon Raymond Carr, MD, of Cornerstone Surgery, by dedicating the conference room on the first floor of the Cornerstone Health Care at Westchester building at 1814 Westchester Drive in his name. According to Cornerstone President and CEO, Grace E. Terrell, MD, the dedication honors Dr. Carr, his wife Anne, and their family for his many years of service to the High Point medical community and in recognition of the key role he
played in the establishment of Cornerstone. This is the fifth conference room in the Cornerstone Health Care at Westchester building named in honor of Cornerstone physicians. The conference room on the second floor of the new medical building located at 1814 Westchester Drive was dedicated in honor of Dr. DuBose Ravenel of Cornerstone Pediatrics. The library was named for Dr. Harvey Tilles of Asheboro Foot and Ankle Specialists. In March a double ceremony was held for the naming of the conference room on the third floor in honor of retired physicians Dr. Edwin Auman and Drs.
Eugene and Eldora Terrell, and the naming of the conference room on the fourth floor in honor of Dr. Chester Haworth of Cornerstone Neurology.

According to Sandy Motley, Executive Director of the Clinic, the donation is a welcome and timely addition. “The AED is a piece of equipment we hope we never have to use.

our need for this crucial medical equipment it is greater than ever before.� Dr. Kathryn A. McFarland, of Carolina Cardiology Associates’ Lexington office, coordinated the contribution of the equipment after serving

TMC, fire department awarded scholarship TIMES STAFF REPORT
The Thomasville Fire Department and Thomasville Medical Center have been awarded scholarships to participate in a training conference dedicated to “Remembering When: A Fire and Fall Prevention Program for Older Adults,” developed by the National Fire Protection Association, NFPA. The awarded scholarships provide for travel expenses for two participants, Remembering When curriculum materials and all training. The conference will be held Nov. 15 – 17, 2009 in Boston, Massachusetts. NFPA has selected
two-member teams from 32 communities across North America to participate. Teams are comprised of one fire department member partnered with an individual from an agency within the community that serves older adults through home visits, such as visiting nurses associations, home health care agencies, and places of worship. “Adults 65 years and older are more than twice as likely to be killed in a home fire compared to the population at large, and falls are the leading cause of death from injuries in this group,” said Sharon Gamache, NFPA’s Director of High-Risk Out-
reach Programs, “This training offers strategies that participants can bring back to share with their communities to help prevent fires and falls among older adults that live there.” Dolly Hulin, Fire & Life Safety Director at Thomasville Fire Department and Linda Hunt, Executive Director of Senior Link at Thomasville Medical Center will
What to expect when expecting a recovery Raymond James & Associates
Scott Brown, senior analyst at Raymond James & Associates in Tampa, was in Greensboro in early October to address an audience assembled by NewBridge Bank, United Healthcare and the American Heart Association. Brown had a lot to say about the two “R’s” that have been foremost on Americans’ minds these days: Recession and recovery. Brown’s presentation, part of the seminar, “Healthy, Wealthy & Wise,” held Oct. 6 at the Empire Room, kept returning to key points: The economy has seen slight improvements, but it’ll be a bumpy ride ahead. “This is certainly the worst recession we’ve seen since The Great Depression,” Brown told the audience. “Gross domestic product is still a negative 3.9 percent. We expect positives in the third and fourth quarters, however. And, we’re not seeing the kinds of job losses now that we saw earlier this year. It started out with about 700,000 jobs lost per month. Now it’s around 260,000. Not as bad, but still bad.” Brown cited some of the key contributors to the economic breakdown — housing bubble, subprime lending crisis, high gasoline prices, and insufficient domestic savings. “There was also a lot of complacency, the feeling that Alan Greenspan and Ben Bernanke could just cut interest rates and make things better,” Brown said. Soon, interbank lending evaporated, and several major financial institutions, Fannie Mae and Lehman Bros. among them, collapsed. Panic set in, Brown said. “The thing about panics is that you don’t just un-panic,” Brown said. “It takes time before confidence is restored.” Still, the dangers of a Great Depression II now seem unlikely. There was a big difference between the Great Depression and this crisis, Brown said. In the former, policymakers made all the wrong moves — raising taxes and interest rates, putting up trade barriers, and doing nothing while thousands of banks failed.
“In our current crisis, the Fed policy has been extremely creative, with lowered interest rates, temporary liquidity facilities and easing of credit,” Brown said. “There has been coordinated policy across borders, major efforts to rescue the banking system, and a fiscal stimulus to reinforce recovery.” “Some of these measures have, at least, helped us see the light at the end of the tunnel.” TARP, or the Troubled Asset Relief Program, and TALF, or Term Asset-Based Lending Facility, have made a little progress and it was probably a good move to rid banks of toxic assets, he said. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will put forth $787 billion through 2011 to create or prevent job losses through tax cuts, extensions to unemployment, aid to states and infrastructure spending. Some of these measures, such as infrastructure spending, have been beneficial, Brown said. But there hasn’t been a sufficient amount of tax cuts or aid to the states to create a turnaround, he said. More worrisome,

travel to Boston for the workshop. Following the workshop, Director Hulin will conduct a minimum of five group presentations and at least two train-the-trainer sessions for Thomasville Medical Center. Thomasville Medical Center will integrate materials from the Remembering When program into its outreach through home visits. NFPA’s committed to
helping communities reduce fire and fall injuries and deaths among older adults. The Remembering When program has been implemented in communities throughout North American since 1999, reaching thousands of older adults. For more information about Remembering When, visit www.nfpa.org/rememberingwhen. NFPA has been a world-
wide leader in providing fire, electrical, building, and life safety to the public since 1896. The mission of the international nonprofit organization is to reduce the worldwide burden of fire and other hazards on the quality of life by providing and advocating consensus codes and standards, research, training, and education.

Hege garners attention for the wrong reasons VIEWPOINT
ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer
Much has been made in the news lately regarding former Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege throwing his name in the hat for reelection next year, and for the life of me I can’t see the reason why. Other than the fact Hege is a convicted felon and was removed from office for obstruction of justice, the reason this man is attracting so much attention escapes me. I realize in the news business that finding a credible story to put in the paper is not the easiest thing to do all the time. But when I see and read story after story regarding Hege running for sheriff in 2010, the same question keeps crossing my mind — why? Even before I started working in Davidson County, I knew who Hege was, from the spider car to the pink jail cells. While that’s all fun and dandy, I knew of Hege mostly from his antics than his credibility as a law enforcement officer. Some people are sure to disagree with me on this and paint Hege as a savior to police around the country, but I find it hard to believe he is a better choice for sheriff than incumbent David Grice. In my time working in the county, I’ve found Sheriff Grice to be extremely accessible, professional and respectable. If Grice was sheriff of Guilford County, I would find it comforting to know a man like him is responsible for serving the public where my tax dollars go. I don’t see Sheriff Grice riding around
in the ‘bat mobile’ or hopping on the back of crotch rocket motorcycle I’d expect to see at Myrtle Beach after high school graduation. Here at the Times, we receive police reports from several local law enforcement agencies, including the Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office. There are times when the subject nature is delicate and police refrain from giving out too much information because it could damage their case in the long run. I understand that. What Grice understands is that reporters have a job to do as well, and he goes out of his way to help me get out the most information possible to the citizens of Davidson County who read our paper. I also know that Sheriff Grice works very closely with neighboring police on a variety of different matters. I have followed him to Montgomery County where DCSO assisted with a massive breaking and entering ring that involved Denton and I spoke with him shortly after he left the funeral of Mickey Hutchens, a Winston Salem police officer who was shot and killed in the line of duty. I have a pretty good sense of where Grice’s priorities are, and they don’t involve putting spider webs on a squad car. In no way am I questioning Hege’s commitment to his officers or the sheriff ’s office. I also saw him leaving the Winston-Salem Police Department shortly after the death of Hutchens, and I’m fairly confident he has the best interests of his officers close to heart. What I do question is Hege’s agenda. Finding the limelight is one thing. Thrusting one’s self into the spotlight through gimmicks and antics is another. Is Hege good for TV? Sure. Is Hege good for reporters needing a story? Yes. Is Hege the right choice as sheriff of Davidson County? No. Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-35768, or duke@tvilletimes.com.
How does coach Williams measure as a writer? VIEWPOINT
D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist What sets Roy Williams apart from his colleagues? Many fans would say simply that Williams is the best basketball coach in the profession today. But there is more. A few days ago Coach Williams’ memoir, “Hard Work: A Life on and Off the Court,” arrived in the bookstores. Early readers are finding that, while he might not be the best writer in America today, he knows how to tell an engaging story, and his story is something very special. In the new book, Williams shares in vivid detail how his abusive father abandoned the family and left Williams’ mother, a mill worker, to struggle through the poverty that bore down on them. Williams recognizes the importance of his mother’s contribution to his success, and the book overflows with his love for her. Another of Williams’ ingredients of success gives the book its title, “Hard Work.” Williams always worked hard and required those he taught or coached to work hard. But Williams recognizes that the hard work paid off because there were oppor-
tunities that other people provided for him. Williams remembers Mrs. Cheek, his third grade teacher, who posted a list of the top ten students in the class. Williams’ name was not on the list and that “really ticked me off.” By the time the next list was posted, Williams’ name was at the top of the list, where it stayed for the rest of the year. Opportunity and accountability became Williams’ watchwords and ultimately opened the door for him to work with Dean Smith. Williams remembers the encouragement his high school coach, Buddy Baldwin, gave him and how one day he thought, “How good must Coach Baldwin feel to make me feel this good? And I am not the only person he’s done this for. I want to be like Buddy Baldwin. I want to be a coach.” It turned out that Williams was a pretty good high school player for Coach Baldwin and good enough to make the Jayvee team at Carolina. But that was it, at least as a player. His opening to work with Dean Smith came another way, through statistics. While a senior at Carolina, Williams kept a “points per possession” chart for Smith, who made Williams’ year when he said, “You really do a nice job.” After a few years coaching in high school, Williams came back to Chapel Hill to work as a part-time assistant to Smith for $2700 a year, not enough to live on, especially when his wife Wanda stopped working to have their second child. So Williams went into the calendar business, selling Carolina basketball calendars to businesses to give
to their customers. The first year he made $2400. He did better every year, making $30,000 in the fourth year, becoming as he said “the best dadgum calendar salesman there ever was.” During his first year as an assistant coach, Williams’ talent with numbers paid off again, bringing him closer to Smith. “During games, I kept a chart on the bench of what offenses and defenses we called, the quality of shots taken, and the results of each possession.…. It was the first time Coach Smith had ever had that kind of information and he really liked it.” Like Coach Baldwin, Coach Smith gave Williams an example of how a combination of “tough love” and hard work could make such an important difference in a player’s performance on the court and success off the court. Having been the beneficiary of opportunities that required hard work, Williams now passes on to others what came to him, maybe making his charges work even harder than he did, just to ensure that they will be even more successful as players than he was.

I want to express my gratitude to the voters of Thomasville who placed their confidence in me to serve them for two more years on the Thomasville City Council. This is a responsibility that I take quite seriously. I am blessed to have the unwavering support of my family, especially my husband, Glenn, and my mother, Duella Harris, and I want to publicly thank them.

higher than usual for this year’s municipal election. I can only hope that this is the start of an upward trend in voter turnout. Since there are so many opportunities to vote (early voting, absentee voting, and curbside voting), we could have had in excess of 10,000 registered voters exercising their right to vote. The election is over so our focus will return to how we can make Thomasville stronger. I am looking forward to the next two years, although I

Sports Editor LEXINGTON — For just the second time since the rebirth of the Davidson County Community College program, the Storm dropped a game on its home floor. Playing from behind for much of the game on Sunday with Division II Pitt Community College, the Storm were able to climb back in and take the lead, but ran out of steam and time, falling 76-72. DCCC had a chance late, but missed free throws, and lazy play on the other end at the charity stripe cost them dearly. “We made a lot of mental mistakes throughout the game and not just at

We missed some shots around the basket again — we need to learn to finish those.” After climbing back to take the lead 66-65 on an inbounds play from Justin Glover to Zack Williams, the lead went back and forth over the next few trips down the floor.

Heels topple Devils BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — Earlier in the week, Duke coach David Cutcliffe called North Carolina’s defense the best in the league. Saturday against the Blue Devils, the Tar Heels lived up to his expectations. UNC turned in a dominating defensive performance, shutting down the top passing attack in the ACC, and then let running back Ryan Houston carry the offensive load with a career-high 164 yards in a 19-6 victory at Kenan Stadium. It was the first time since 2005 that the rivalry matchup didn’t end the regular season for the Tar Heels, who kept the Victory Bell for the sixth consecutive season. “People asked, ‘What’s it like not playing Duke at the end of the season?’ “ UNC coach Butch Davis said. “I don’t think it makes one bit of a difference.

Kurt Busch enjoys his victory at the Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday after winning the Dickies 500.
All Busch at Texas BY REID SPENCER NASCARMedia.com FORT WORTH, Texas — In recent weeks, Jimmie Johnson has worn out the already threadbare phrase, “Anything can happen in our sport.” On Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway, it finally did. Capitalizing on superior fuel mileage, Kurt Busch drove his No. 2 Dodge to victory in the Dickies 500, after disaster struck Johnson like a lightning bolt and made a race of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup after all. Johnson suffered a Lap 3 wreck that sidelined his No. 48 Chevrolet for more than an hour as his team
made extensive repairs. With a 38thplace finish, Johnson lost 111 points of his 184-point lead in the Chase to second-place Mark Martin, who finished fourth and trails Johnson by 73 points with two races left. Busch won the race at the expense of brother Kyle Busch, who ran out of fuel three laps short of completing an unprecedented weekend sweep of races in NASCAR’s top three divisions. Busch had won the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race on Friday and the NASCAR Nationwide Series event on Saturday. After pitting on Lap 269 of 334, Kyle Busch was leading and trying

Football will continue on for Thomasville and Ledford, as both have qualified for the North Carolina High School Athletic Association state playoffs. The Bulldogs (7-4) earned a No. 4 seed in the 2-A bracket and will play host to East Rutherford (4-7), the No. 13 seed on Friday night at Cushwa Stadium. Ledford (6-5) enters the 3-A playoffs as a No. 8 seed, and will entertain Jesse Carson (6-5), the No. 9 seed. Thomasville is coming off a 23-13 win over archrival Lexington, and an outright Central Carolina Conference championship. They have been on a roll ever since losing four in a row to start the season. The Panthers will begin the playoffs after being dismantled by Northeast Guilford 53-0, in a game that decided the MidPiedmont Conference. This will be Ledford’s first time playing at the 3-A level. South Davidson made the playoffs and will play Robbinsville in 1-A.

HEELS From page 7 contest.” Davis said the real story of the game was the defense, which held the Blue Devils (5-4, 3-2 ACC) to 125 total yards of offense. Duke quarterback Thad Lewis, who entered the game averaging 289.4 passing yards per game, managed just 113 yards in the air and was picked off once. UNC (6-3, 2-3) never allowed Lewis much time to throw, and the defensive line was constantly in his face as it recorded 14 quarterback hurries, three sacks and eight tackles for losses. When Lewis did get time to throw downfield, UNC’s secondary clamped down on his receivers and broke up eight passes as Lewis finished 16-of-33. “It was the best defense we’ve faced so far,” Lewis said. “Those guys up front did a great job for them. They came in with a tenacious attitude and played the best game I’ve seen from watching film of those guys. They came to play.” And it was the Tar Heels’ defense that came up with the biggest momentum swinger of the game at the end of the third quarter. The Blue Devils found themselves on UNC’s 37, thanks to a Leon Wright interception, with the scored tied at 6 and a chance to take the lead. But three plays later, UNC cornerback Charles Brown picked off Lewis and returned it 54 yards to Duke’s 20. Casey Barth booted a 41-yard field goal, his longest of the season, to give UNC the lead for good as time expired in the third quarter. “Charlie Brown’s interception was a huge emotional, psychological swing,” Davis said. “It looked like something was going wrong, and all of a sudden he put a fire out.” The Tar Heels put the

game away on their next possession. After the defense forced Duke to turn the ball over on fourth down, Jheranie Boyd capped a 65-yard drive with a 3-yard touchdown run to put UNC up 16-6 with 6:57 to play. Houston churned out 55 yards on the drive, carrying the ball on 10 of the 12 plays. “Ryan was basically carrying us through the whole drive,” Boyd said. “[With] 3 yards to go, everybody thought he was going to get in. … They didn’t expect me to get the ball.” Houston became UNC’s main option on the ground Saturday when starter Shaun Draughn left the game with a shoulder injury suffered on the first play from scrimmage. Houston had a career-high 37 carries, which was the most rushing attempts by a UNC back since 1990. The 6-2, 245 junior primarily has been used in short yardage situations, and his previous high for carries in a game was 18 in the win over Virginia Tech on Oct. 29. “I’m a little sore,” said Houston, who recorded his first 100-yard game. Barth added a 33-yard field goal — his fourth of the night — to put UNC up 19-6 with 3:56 to go, and the defense took care of the rest. Robert Quinn, who had all three of UNC’s sacks, said the biggest advantage for the defense was it wasn’t on the field much. The Tar Heels dominated time of possession, holding the ball for 38:33 compared to the Blue Devils’ 21:27. The first half went back and forth while the teams traded field goals. A 26-yarder by Duke’s Nick Maggio as time expired in the second quarter tied the score at 6 at halftime. But in the second half, UNC’s defense took over and held Duke to just 43 yards on 26 plays. “The defense is probably the soul of our team right now,” Boyd said.
STORM From page 7 hold an advantage. Four missed free throws by the Storm allowed the Bulldogs to jump ahead 73-70 as the clock ticked under a minute. Glover made two at the line, trimming the deficit to one, but Johnny Godette sank two for Pitt that pushed it back to three. Kimani Hunt had what looked to be the tying 3-pointer from the top of the key next trip down the floor, but it clanked off the rim and was taken away by Pitt.
DCCC still had a chance with the Bulldogs missing free throws, but the rebounders got lazy and allowed Pitt to sneak in the lane twice to get second chances. Davidson fell behind by 10 in the first half, but hustle play from Glover allowed the Storm to get back within three at the half. He made steals, crashed the boards and raced down the floor for bunnies on the fast break, giving the team and crowd a lift. “Justin Glover played extremely hard and his energy was contagious,” said Ridge. The lead would reach 10 again five minutes
into the second half when Godette was getting his hands on every ball for the Bulldogs and scoring with ease. That forced Davidson to dig deep once again to climb back in it, and they eventually drew even at 5555 with 9:40 remaining. They later got the lead, but could never separate themselves enough to put away Pitt. “You use up so much energy coming from behind like we did tonight, and then once you get the lead a lot, mentally you back off,” Ridge said. “Getting a team to overcome that is challenging for a coach.” For DCCC, that was
just step one of what will be a challenging week. They will play at Guilford Technical Community College on Wednesday, then travel to Chapel Hill on Sunday to play the UNC junior varsity at the Dean E. Smith Center. “We have a big week ahead of us so we have got to get better in a hurry,” Ridge said. “This schedule is made up for us to peak in February and March, and I think these games will only help us down the road.” Sports Editor Zach Kepley can be reached at 888-3631, or at kepley@tvilletimes.com.

Cutcliffe says Blue Devils were Your Town. fortunate loss was not worse Your BY BRIANA GORMAN Durham Herald Sun CHAPEL HILL — Any number of words, virtually all of them negative, could be used to describe Duke’s performance at North Carolina on Saturday. Duke coach David Cutcliffe, however, selected a surprising one. “We were fortunate,” Cutcliffe said. The Blue Devils certainly couldn’t have felt fortunate after losing to their biggest rival in a game with implications beyond bragging rights, a game in which their previously high-flying offense failed to score a touchdown. Still, Cutcliffe couldn’t help but feel like his team was a little lucky as he trotted off the field after the 19-6 loss. “We really were very fortunate to have a chance there in the fourth quarter to win the game, because the bottom line is we got whipped,” Cutcliffe said. “We didn’t play very well, and Carolina played extremely well.” The Blue Devils, averaging 440 yards per game during their three-game winning streak, entered the fourth quarter Saturday with just 125 yards. Yet the teams stood even at 6-6 before Casey Barth’s 41-yard field goal on the final snap of the third quarter. The problem, besides having just 125 yards so late in the game, was that the Blue Devils still had 125 yards at the end of the game. And their defense, on the field constantly thanks to the offense’s struggles and
TEXAS From page 7 to conserve fuel when he ran out on the backstretch on Lap 331. “I’m out! I’m out—coming to you!” he radioed to crew chief Dave Rogers, who had replaced Steve Addington on the pit box after last Sunday’s race at Talladega. That handed the lead to Kurt, who had pitted on Lap 271 and had saved enough fuel to make it to the finish line. Denny Hamlin took advantage of the pervasive gas shortage to finish second, 25.686 seconds behind Busch, the largest margin of victory in a NASCAR Sprint Cup race since the inception of electronic scoring in May 1993. Matt Kenseth ran third, followed by Martin, Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart. Those were the only six drivers to finish on the lead lap, the fewest since six cars finished on the lead lap in June 2008 at Dover. “I knew what we had for fuel mileage — I was confident in our guys’ numbers,” Kurt Busch said in Victory Lane. “They gave me what I needed to win today. We were fast, we were playing cat-and-mouse with Kyle on restarts — you know, it’s the first true time that Kyle and I have raced each other hard for a victory like this. “For us to come away and knock him off his sweep — he was trying to go for it — it’s bittersweet. I was rooting for him, but at the same time, this is for us.” Johnson’s heretofore
UNC running back Ryan Houston’s career day, hit the wall down the stretch but couldn’t hit Houston hard enough, finally yielding a time-consuming touchdown drive that ended Duke’s hopes. “Coming into the game, we said we were going to have to outhit them, just keep hitting them and keep hitting them and they would wear down,” Duke cornerback Leon Wright said. “We didn’t hit them hard enough,
‘Bottom line is we got whipped.’ — David Cutcliffe Duke head coach
I guess. We knew it was going to be a hard-nosed football game, and they came to play. We didn’t show up when we needed to.” Heading into the game, which pitted a pair of 53 teams both seeking to move within one victory of bowl eligibility, Cutcliffe appeared to engage in the age-old tradition of “coachspeak,” saying that the Tar Heels’ defense couldn’t be blocked and that he couldn’t find an individual matchup that favored his offense. On Saturday, it appeared that he spoke the truth. “I was too prophetic,” he said. “I thought schematically we could do some things to hurt them, but to their credit, they adjusted a little bit
flawless run to a record fourth straight championship hit a major snag after a tap from David Reutimann in Turn 2 started Sam Hornish Jr. sliding up the track into Johnson’s No. 48 Chevrolet. Johnson fought for control before spinning back into Hornish’s No. 77 Dodge and slamming into the inside wall. Johnson was off the track for an hour and eight minutes while his crew worked frantically to repair the car, which suffered heavy damage to the front and rear. The No. 48 Chevy returned the track on Lap 115 and gained five positions through the attrition of other cars. Johnson stayed in the car through the entire repair process. “Just sat in the car, was thinking through what went on, how I could have done something different,” he said. “(I was) on the outside lane, driving by a couple cars, and I didn’t really even see the 77 get loose. I got clobbered from the side. Around I went. “I thought about those things sitting in the pits. Watched the guys, hoped that they could get the car fixed and on track. I could see the televisions, was watching the race. Just kind of paid attention to where the 5 (Martin) and 24 (polesitter Jeff Gordon, who finished 13th and trails Johnson by 112 points) were on track.” “I guess after enough time sitting there, I finally calmed down some and caught my breath and relaxed. But the first 20, 30 minutes of that were pretty painful.”
and had a good plan. “We just didn’t get it done.” Thad Lewis couldn’t find open receivers — there weren’t any — the way he had while throwing for 1,532 yards over his previous four games. The ACC’s most productive passing game was limited to 113 yards — 212 below its average. The ACC’s least productive running game was limited to 12 yards — 63 below its average. “It kind of limits what you can do when you have a great front and guys bearing down on you and not giving you enough time to throw the ball, and you’re not running the football,” said Lewis, who had backto-back runs totaling 33 yards early in the second half for an offense that netted minus-21 yards otherwise. “They did a great job of scheming us up today, and their players made plays.” Still, Duke’s defense didn’t break despite some bending, and the Blue Devils somehow found themselves down just 9-6 entering the fourth quarter. A Johnny Williams kickoff return and a late hit on UNC then set Duke up at the UNC 41, but the Blue Devils couldn’t get a first down. Facing the prospect of a 52-yard field goal attempt with strong-legged starter Will Snyderwine out because of a strained quad suffered in warmups, Duke went for it on fourth-and-4, but defensive end Robert Quinn knocked away a pass, setting up Houston and Co. to drive the length of the field and salt away the victory.

SHERIFF From page 1 served three years of probation, which ended in 2007. As part of his plea bargain, 13 of 15 charges against Hege were dismissed, including five counts of embezzlement and five counts of obtaining property by false pretenses. “The only reason you’re investigating a man for eight and a half years and you drop 13 charges is because you can’t prove them,” Hege said. “It’s not because you fall in love with him all of a sudden. I pleaded guilty to those two that I felt like I had made mistakes on, and they dropped the charges.” Current North Carolina law prohibits convicted felons from owning or carrying a firearm, but Hege thinks that a decision made by the N.C. Supreme Court in October may allow him to carry a gun as sheriff. The case in question is that of a felon named Barney Britt whose citizenship had been restored. The court ruled that because Britt was a nonviolent offender who had served his time, and who had legally owned guns for 17 years, it was unreasonable to prohibit him from keeping and bearing arms. Hege could seek the same exemption for himself. Hege said that his criminal record would not affect his work as sheriff or his tough-oncrime stance.

Jail painted pink with crying blue teddy bears, removed all TVs and books — except the Bible — from the jail and reinstituted chain gang labor. Now that the TVs have returned, Hege says he wants to remove them again and repaint the jail pink. First, the citizens of Davidson County must decide if they want to give him another chance in office. “The bottom line is, I paid my dues,” Hege said. “How long does a man have to pay his dues? If they wanted to sentence me to 40 years, they would have. Now, I’m just saying, ‘Hey, if you’d like to give me a second chance, that’s fine. If not, I understand.’” Hege will face off against current Davidson County Sheriff David Grice in the Republican primary, but he said that he isn’t currently seeking the party’s support, letting his candidacy be a “Sheriff Hege thing.” “I spent 40 years in the Republican Party, and I paid my dues,” he said. “I love them, but I’m 60 years old, and I’m just running my own thing now.”

Watt responds to passage of Health Care Act TIMES STAFF REPORT
WASHINGTON, DC— Congressman Mel Watt (12th District of North Carolina) made the following statement about today’s House vote on the Affordable Health Care for America Act: “Today the House took a historic step by passing the Affordable Health Care for America Act. In my seventeen (17) years of representing the constituents of the 12th District of North Carolina in the House, health care reform has been an unfulfilled dream as Congress continued to kick the can down the road providing no real reform for the American people. Passage of this bill begins the process of reforming
EXPECT From page 4 Brown said, is that after the present payouts wind down in 2011, a second stimulus package may be needed. That may be politically unlikely, he said.. The unemployment rate was about eight percent in September, but it underestimates the problems in the labor force, Brown said. “In past business cycles we’ve had temporary layoffs, but with this recession they’ve been more permanent in nature. It will be some time before we can generate all the jobs that have been lost” Still, there are promising signs. Banks are beginning to borrow from each other again. Tightening of loan standards has slowed. And corporate profits are starting to go to positive numbers. Credit will continue to be tight, though, especially for small businesses. And inflation will continue to be high. For now, the pace of decline of U.S. and global economies has slowed and output has begun to improve. “The U.S. economy has probably bottomed,” Brown said. “The policies we have in place will support a gradual recovery in 2010. But the job market will still lag behind.” In 2011, the private sector will likely pick up steam, he said. But that will be offset by the fading of the fiscal stimulus. In other words, be prepared for a long and choppy recovery.
