Eastview recordings may be Carl Perkins’ first ever

An underground fire at the McNairy County Landfill has been smoldering for more than a month and has some area residents worried about hazards from the smoke and fumes being released. County officials stated that the fire, which began on Sept. 2, does not present an immediate danger to residents and said that they were doing everything in their power to extinguish it. “I get it every night,” said Richard Glover, nearby resident living on Airport Rd. “It makes it hard to breath. It’s like acid or something in the air. It’s very noticeable.” The month-long incident is mainly underground which makes it difficult to control using traditional fire fighting techniques. “It started that afternoon and within a couple hours it was covered in flames,” said County Mayor Wilbur Gene Ashe. “The fire department cooled it down enough where we could get dozers and track hoes on it. “We are waiting for the landfill people to tell us how to proceed from here. The air quality people have been here to make sure that it is not hazardous.” The landfill is a class III-IV landfill, meaning that they accept demolition waste, brush, paper, and old furniture along with other similar materials at the site. This is the second big fire at the landfill since 2005. “We have been very lucky that we have only had two fires in the last six years,” said Cindy Kennedy, county director of solid waste. She said that fires at that class of landfill were common and that two fires in a six year period was a low number when compared to other landfills. It’s more of an aggravation

The earliest recordings of Carl Perkins are believed to have been made in Eastview, according to Arts in McNairy Heritage and Culture Committee Chair Dr. Shawn Pitts. “It’s an absolute treasure. We’re just tickled pink. It’s important for our heritage,” Pitts said. These recordings were made between 1951 and 1953 at the home of Stanton Littlejohn. He purchased a recording device which could make wax records in 1946 and began making recordings the next year. He began by recording his own music, as well as that of his relatives and acquaintances. Because this device was the only one of its kind in the area, musicians throughout the area soon came here to record. Perkins is known to have played with many of the other musicians on the recordings before he was a commercial success, especially a group called the Chickasaw Ramblers, from Henderson. Two of the songs, “Drinking Wine” and “Everybody’s Rockin’ Tonight” appear to be solo efforts. Another, “There’s Been a Change in Me,” is credited to Carl Perkins and the Southern Playboys and was recorded on New Year’s Day 1951. Perkins was only 18 years Submitted Photos old at this time.

During a routine review of our publication by our staff on the morning of Oct. 5, 2011 it was revealed that an inadvertent error in a headline may have conveyed an erroneous impression. The headline which reads Selmer Board moves to suspend officer, published on Oct. 5, 2011 regarding Selmer Police Officer Tony Westbrooks was a reflection of background information relating to a prior suspension and was in no way meant to convey any current action by the board. This oversight was unintentional and we regret any misunderstanding this may have caused.

A fire destroyed two Selmer businesses last Sunday night, according to Selmer Fire Chief Anthony Carr. Carr said when he got to the scene it was a total loss. It was too dangerous to investigate, but they will try to go back later when it is safer, he said.

John Smith first saw and reported the fire. “I had just turned on the street and headed home and called 911,” he said. The destroyed building housed Victoria’s and Golden Tan’s and Gifts, according to their owners. Victoria’s is owned by Vicki Weirich and Golden Tan’s and Gifts is owned by McNairy County Fire Chief Darryl Goodrum.

A night in Hurst’s haunted mansion By Andrew Alexander Assistant Editor

This is a series of journal entries logged last Friday night and Saturday morning when my editor, Christen Coulon, and I spent the night at the reportedly haunted Hurst Mansion in historic Purdy, Tenn. 11:08 p.m.-Abounding skepticism Right now, I’m waiting for Christen to arrive so we can take our guided tour through Hurst’s Haunted Mansion. To be quite honest with you all, I’m really skeptical going into this. Don’t get me wrong... I’m eager to get the show on the road, but frankly, I don’t think I’ll be a witness to any paranormal activity. That’s not to say that I don’t believe in ghosts, spirits, or whatever... I once had quite an encounter of inexplicable nature that was more than enough of an experience to make me a believer. But for some reason, I just don’t see this being a terrifying, excruciatingly horrifying night in the “haunted” mansion. With that being said, I can honestly say I hope to feel some chills run up and down my spine. I hope to get paranoid every time I hear a creak or crack or something that sounds like footsteps. I’m truly excited about the opportunity to bear witness to frightening happenings and unexplainable phenomena. I’m not into cheap thrills, stories of ghouls and ghosts fabricated by biased historical account or haunted hotel, mansion, and house owners trying to make a buck. I want a to experience an authentic haunting. One that will keep me from ever coming back. 12:05 a.m.- The grand and ghastly tour My partner arrived a little late, but the kind folks running the haunted mansion tour granted us a run-through of their

menacing mansion and estate, and for that I was grateful. I grew up around these things. When I was young, my mother loved to work haunted houses and mansions. She always embraced the Halloween spirit, so I was dragged to these kinds of places every year, multiple nights a week. It takes a pretty good horror-house to get me worked up. Our tour consisted of just Christen and I, and I’m sure had there been women, children, and 12-year-old girls the screams alone would have sent chills down my spine. Since it was just the two of us, the terror you feel in a larger group of unsuspecting victims was lost, but that’s not to say the scares were not decent. Particularly, the scene with the little dead girls swinging in front of the “butcher barn.” After the tour, we met back up with the gang of haunted house workers at the community center where they began telling us stories of bone chilling occurrences they experienced working in the house. This is when my curiosity was aroused. They might have just been trying to put the fear in me, but their tales did make the hairs on my neck stand up and got me even more ready to spend the next five hours surviving the dark and dingy Hurst Mansion. 1:03 a.m.- Exploration begins The initial tour of the mansion without supervision of guides and haunted house workers went well. Meaning, I’m still alive and not scared out of my wits. The house is dark because they cut the power off after the last tour. It seems creepy and uninviting, but a place a guy could spend the night if he had to. I’m sitting on the steps, inches away from the infamous bullet hole that was

intended for Col. Hurst himself, next to a bloodstain on the carpet that I’m not sure was staged, taking a moment to gather my thoughts, evaluate the terror, and let you all know that I’m not scared yet. Christen is continuing his journey through the mansion on his own, only camera in hand. I will explore the upstairs on my own to invite any poltergeist out to greet/terrify a lonely skeptic. 2:02 a.m.- Wilderness wandering after searching solo Nothing irregular took place in my upstairs inspection. I took a nice long look around Hurst’s bedroom and even ventured into the attic alone. I can’t say that I was disappointed a ghost didn’t get me in the attic. It would have been a very unpleasant place to be trapped. Christen and I joined back up and took a lap through the field behind the mansion that we had been guided through earlier in the evening. We noticed that certain spots along the trail lit dimly with solar powered garden lights were a lot cooler than others. By “cool” I don’t mean like Arthur Fonzarelli. The temperature in certain spots was obviously chillier than the rest of the trail, and we couldn’t blame the wind because there was none. We can smell wood burning now and couldn’t before, which is strange, but we suspect it was just from the fires the workers had going during the tours. We also noticed one of the stakes set up to block trails for workers to get to and from their stations was pulled up from the ground. It was not like that the first time we came through. Still no sightings of spirits or apparitions, but upon returning from the field the house seems much more erie than it did when we left it.

3:15 a.m.- Lights-out listening We’ll call this the “Dark Hour.” After making it back to the mansion from our stroll around the estate, Christen and I decided to turn off our only flashlight and give the spirits inside and outside of the property a chance to move in on us with our guard down. We spent the better half of an hour sitting in the dark, waiting to hear something, but other than Christen’s stomach growling, there was nothing much to report. The dark was ominous, and the house was much creepier without the luxury of light, but as far as feeling the presence of a ghost, or hearing an echo of an ancient death rattle, or feeling the hair on the back of my neck stand up... there were no such occurrences. We will now make our rounds through the house again. This time together with cameras in hand to see what we can capture and what the mansion can scare up. 4:08 a.m.- Things get weird After a quick once-over of the mansion for the third or fourth time tonight, there were still no signs of an authentic haunting. We also made another lap around the property. We found ourselves a bit disturbed when several of the guiding lights on the trail around the estate were no longer in their places. We discovered that one of them had been moved off the beaten path into some tall grass a few yards from the trail. Spine-tingly? Yes. Upon arriving at the house’s front porch, we heard a noise that could only be described as something being drug across the floor in the foyer of the mansion. We rushed in, like those people that always get killed in horror movies, to see what was producing the sounds, but all

appeared as we had left it. No ghouls in sight. We will make one more trip through to explore every nook and cranny of the house trying to see what.. if anything... we can witness in this increasingly spooky residence located in the middle of nowhere, with failing light sources, sleep deprivation setting in, and an almost depleted sense of bravery.

5:00 a.m.- Creeped out and calling it a night I’m sitting in my car outside of the community center. My doors are locked because I am feeling a bit paranoid at this point. It’s been a long night, but I’d rather be tired now as opposed to trying to sleep in that place. After our last walk-through, we made it to the back yard where Christen stopped me in my tracks and told me to listen. When I quieted my feet, I could hear what he was hearing. It sounded like leaves were falling off the trees and landing on a tin roof. I know that doesn’t sound like something to note, but like I said before, there was no wind, and as far as we could tell... there were no leaves falling either. To make matters even spookier, I got the chill down my spine that I had been waiting for. While we listened to this odd noise, I heard a more recognizable one right behind me. It sounded as if someone, or something, was directly behind me, walking quickly on gravel. The problem was, there was no gravel anywhere on the property. Things progressively got stranger and harder to explain, but with our lights and senses failing us and the sun starting to come up, we have decided to call it a night. I wouldn’t mind doing this again, but I certainly would never try and stay in the mansion on my own.

Alligators may be coming to McNairy County By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

Alligators could expand into McNairy County at in the future, according to Sam Bedwell, wildlife officer for the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. They are already in Shelby, Tipton and Fayette counties, though in very small numbers, as reported by TWRA agents in these counties. When the Europeans came to America, they existed as far north as St. Louis, Bedwell said. They were killed for their hides and almost exterminated. They are now protected by both federal and state law, meaning it is illegal to kill or harass them. They have expanded because male gators are very territorial and will run smaller gators out of their territory. There have been gators in Shelby County for around 10 years and they have been in Tipton and Fayette Counties for about three years, Bedwell said. They are across the river from Memphis in Arkan-

cated by representatives from his estate, Pitts said. AiM wants to play the material for the public for the first time, probably at next year’s Rockabilly Highway Revival, when they open the new Latta Building, Pitts said. “We mentioned that to them (the Perkins family), they were fine with that, too, and might like to be here for that as well. That could be a pretty good coming out party for material that has not been heard for 60 years,” Pitts said. Perkins would begin recording at Sun Studios in Memphis three years later. He would also meet Elvis Presley at a performance at the high school gymnasium in Bethel Springs that same year. Only 15 people reportedly attended the show. The Eastview recordings were in the same style of music that Perkins would later become famous for at Sun Studios. His best known song is “Blue Suede Shoes.” He was called the “King of Rockabilly” and inducted into the Rock and Roll, Rockabilly and the Nashville Songwriters Halls of Fame. He also won a Grammy Hall of Fame Award. His songs were recorded by Presley, The Beatles, Johnny Cash and Jimi Hendrix. The exact number of recordings made by Littlejohn is in the dozens, according to Pitts. They were recorded at 78 rpm on standard 8 and 10 inch commercial recording discs. Most are kept in their original protective paper sleeves. Littlejohn made notes on the labels at the time of the recordings and sometimes on the sleeves as well. Most are in ink and are clear, but some have faded. Littlejohn almost always noted the artist and song title and most of the time put the month, day and year when the recording was made. On his death, his wife Min-

sas, where they have a hunting season in a county about 40 miles from Memphis. There are at present no hunting seasons in Tennessee, but Bedwell said there could be one in the future, depending on population growth. However, we are a long way from having a large enough gator population in Tennessee to warrant a hunting season, Bedwell said. Bedwell declined to speculate on when the gators would arrive in McNairy County, but they will eventually get here from the process of natural expansion. There are no documented cases of reproduction, Bedwell said, but small gators have been found in Tipton County. One thing wildlife officers have discovered is that they can live through winter. They hibernate in dens, Bedwell said. “They are adapting to survive in colder climates,” Bedwell said. If you ever come in contact with a gator, give it space and leave it alone, Bedwell advises.

nie Bell inherited the recordings. Marjorie Littlejohn Richard, who is the daughter of Stanton and Minnie Bell, inherited the records upon Minnie Bell’s death. She and her husband, Don Rayburn Richard, now live in Jackson, Tenn., but still own the Eastview home where the recordings were made. Marjorie witnessed many of the sessions, sang on some of the recordings and played with some of the musicians’ children in the yard while the recording sessions were being done. The Richard’s came in contact with the Center for Popular Music at Middle Tennessee State University. CPM remastered about 20 disks of the material in 1997. The Richard family gave AiM the authority to preserve the recordings and in July 2010, AiM received a Commission Grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission. This grant allowed AiM to contract with the CPM to preserve the Littlejohn recordings. The Richards have offered to donate the records to AiM at some time in the future when it is appropriate, Pitts said. He said that AiM will be able to take possession of the records and preserve them at some time in the future. “The Richard family has made an offer of giving custody of these records over to us at some time when they feel that’s appropriate. We have not pushed that. We eventually will be in a position, maybe to take ownership of those records and preserve them in a way that’s appropriate,” Pitts said. Also included in the collection are such local and regional musicians such as Waldo Davis, Ocie Humphries, Arnold English, Con Crotts, Ernest “Pappy” Whitten, Virgil Murray, Hardin Qualls and others.

The plan is for these recordings to eventually be housed in the McNairy County Archives in the basement of the Courthouse. A second group of recordings have gone to MTSU, Pitts told the Independent Appeal last Thursday. “We don’t know what is in this second group of recordings,” Pitts said. The preservation of the recordings came about in part because of a cultural assessment of McNairy County that AiM conducted in order to determine what in our culture was very important to people in the past and those now living and worth preserving and promoting. “One of the things that kept coming up when we asked this question about what had happened in the past here, historically speaking, that had an impact on the culture, one of the things that kept coming up is people said ‘Well, you know, Mr. Littlejohn did those recordings,” Pitts said. The cultural assessment, which began on AiM’s five year anniversary, five years ago, was very innovative for a rural county, although it is now more common. Some work had already been done on this. In the 1980s McNairy County Historian Bill Wagoner had shown interest in the recordings. This is a piece of the effort to preserve McNairy County’s heritage that also includes the Artisan Trail and the Broomcorn Festival, Pitts said. An article by Pitts on the broomcorn heritage will be published in the Tennessee Folklore Society Journal. “That was kind of neat to get to do that. That’s also been an important part of this process,” Pitts said.

at this point, and it could be months before its completely resolved,” Kennedy said. “We are doing everything we can to get it resolved...It’s just smoldering at this point. It is no longer on fire.” Kennedy reiterated Ashe’s statement assuring residents that they were safe.

posed, in his budget, transforming Medicare from a program that pays defined benefits to one that provides premium support payments to private health insurers. Under this plan, beginning in 2022, the government would pay new Medicare beneficiaries a certain amount, which they could use to purchase private health insurance. These reforms would not affect current beneficiaries. This amount would only go up to compensate for inflation. Senior citizens would be personally responsible for rest of their health care costs. The out-of-pocket cost for the average 65-year-old would double to around $12,500 under this plan. It would reduce government healthcare costs and shift them to seniors, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. Ryan would also gradually raise the eligibility from 65 to 67, beginning in 2022. The average premium support payment in 2022 would be $8,000, which is 39 percent of average Medicare spending per enrollee. Total healthcare spending for seniors would rise because private health plans have greater administrative costs. Under this plan, government payments to higher income beneficiaries would be lower than to those with lower incomes. Payments would be reduced by 70 percent for beneficiaries in the top 2 percent of the Medicare population income distribution and by half for the next six percent in the income distribution.

there are no further problems. Kennedy praised all of the workers who have helped to contain the fire stating that, “Everyone has been very helpful. The fire department and the construction companies who have worked on this have done a great job.” A spokesperson for the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Meg Lockhart, said that representatives had been at the landfill, but did not conduct any testing, “at the time of the complaint and our investigation, what remained of the issue were a few hot spots.”

McNairy County CELEBRATES CHILD HEALTH WEEK Selmer, Tenn. – The McNairy County Health Department celebrated Child Health week, October 3-9 this year. The 2011 theme for Child Health Week is “A Healthy Tennessee Begins with a Healthy Me!” with the message that every Tennessean can have a positive impact on the health and well-being of

children. “Parents can strive for their best personal health, and model and encourage active lifestyles and healthy eating with their children,” said McNairy County Health Director, Chris Morris. “Even those who are not parents can support community efforts to create envi-

ronments that foster healthy lifestyles.” The Department of Health offers many services and programs to support the health of children. WIC, the State Immunization Program and the Newborn Screening Program make sure young children get a healthy start on life.

Milledgeville Meeting By Janet Rail Publisher

Milledgeville area churches will be honoring fallen firefighters in services Sunday, for more information on activities visit weekend.firehero.org. The board discussed the community activities to honor two fallen firefighters Jimmy Tuberville, who died in the line of service 2010 and Roy Austin in 2006. Both the Milledgeville United Methodist Church and Sinners Hope Church will have special services beginning at 11 a.m. The mayor and board also discussed the potential closure of their local post office. The city is one of 3,700 rural post offices on the United States Postal Service’s study for potential closure. Citizens in Milledgeville are encouraged to attend a Nov. 8 meeting at 6 p.m. at the Methodist Church with United States Postal Representatives regarding the potential closure of the Milledgeville Post Office. The mayor reported that a letter was mailed to all residents and landowners in the city limits regarding their cleanup campaign and that one certified letter was returned. This weekend the city will have a cleanup day co-sponsored by the Hardin County Solid Waste department. A dumpster will be placed around City Park with bags and tags provided as well Friday with pick up Monday. Tires can be piled up beside the dumpster. All citizens are encouraged to participate in the clean up. The board also unanimously voted against the McNairy County Board of Education’s request to give that county’s school building fund their half of a 1/2 percent sales tax increase if passed in McNairy County. “Instead of getting the revenue through taxes, they need to use the $20 wheel tax money to build the schools,” stated Alderman Hershel Hollin, McNairy County.

October is fire prevention month By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

Since October is fire prevention month, the Independent Appeal asked local fire chiefs what are the most important actions people can take to prevent fires. McNairy County Fire Chief Darryl Goodrum said that when cooking, don’t leave anything unattended. A second tip he gave would be to keep matches and lighters away from kids. Since cold weather is on the way, Goodrum said anyone who has a chimney should check it and clean it out. He also advised that anything flammable should be kept at least three feet from space or wall heaters. Goodrum cautioned that thermostats on them can go bad and the heaters can come on by themselves. The most important things people can do to prevent fires are to have an exit plan, have fire extinguishers strategically placed and have an exit plan, according to Selmer Fire Chief Anthony Carr. “Pre-planning is the biggest thing,” Carr said. One activity the Selmer Fire Department is planning is a program for Selmer Elementary School students. Among the activities planned are activity books and a poster contest. The highlight of the program is smoking up a trailer and letting students crawl through it. The department will also be conducting a live fire and sprinkler side-by-side demonstration at the Dixie Youth baseball field on Thursday at 1:45 P.M, weather permitting. It is funded by a $1,000 grant from the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition. Selmer was one of the 50 fire departments in the country to receive the grant.

Adamsville seeks apartment cleanup By Jeff Whitten Head News Writer

Bell Park Apartments is cooperating with the City of Adamsville in order to bring the building up to code, according to Codes Enforcement Officer Danny Daniels. He told the Independent Appeal last Thursday that apartment owner Mark Alexander and some tenants of the building have been cited for health and sanitation violations. A hearing on the issue was scheduled for Sept.

27 in city court, but was continued until Oct. 25, because Wynter Walker, one of the tenants involved in the court action was not there. “Mark (Alexander) seems to want to work and get it done,” Daniels said. Alexander confirmed that he is working closely with the City of Adamsville to correct the deficiencies, which he said were blown way out of proportion. As an example, he said he had purchased $1,000 of flooring. He said that Wynter Walker’s rent was paid up by

Jesus Cares (confirm) until Oct. 15, but he said that the organization had notified Walker that they will not be paying any more rent for her. “She never personally paid rent,” Alexander said. “Jesus Cares is a great organization. I don’t like taking money from them,” Alexander said. Alexander said that if Walker does not pay her rent in the future, he will take appropriate legal action. He said that some of the problems arose with the previous manager. He said he was evaluating his legal options with the proper authorities. “The buck stops here,” he said.

2011 McNairy County Quilt Show By Amber Price Staff writer

Handmade quilts are often treasured as family keepsakes, passed down from one generation to the next. Many hours are spent, piecing, sewing and stitching, in order to create each one. In celebration of this beloved art, The McNairy County Quilt Show is getting set to open up for its 31st year on Friday. McNairy County, particularly Bethel Springs, is steeped in history when it comes to quilting. Each year, at the McNairy County Quilt Show, “All For the Love of Quilting,” hundreds of quilts are proudly displayed along the walls of The Springs United Pentecostal Church. The show is held in honor of the Busy Bees Quilters, and has had great success in generating interest in the craft. The Busy Bees Quilters, a group of dedicated quilters in the church, worked together more than 20 years ago, making quilts to raise money for a new church building. The women gathered regularly at the church and stitched away toward their goal. In one year, 1989, the Busy Bees made 90 quilts and sent them worldwide. Since 1993, the McNairy County Quilt Show has taken place inside the building that they helped to fund through their work. The Bees were an extraordinary group that no doubt shared many memories with each other over the hours spent creating the valuable quilts. As quilt show organizer, Doris Reece, said “Every quilt has a story.”

Reece shared a few of her personal favorite quilts, including an ice cream quilt, which she pieced together and had quilted by a Busy Bees member. The idea for the quilt came from a quilt shown at a past show. She also pointed out a Bible quilt, which she hand embroidered two of as a gift for her children. Reece worked on the quilt, along with its match, over a period of 15 years. Quilts like these are full of memories for the owners, and the quilt show is a great venue for displaying the unique works of art. Walls of the building will be lined with a variety of quilts of all kinds and ages. There will be rooms set up according to a variety of themes. There are often antique quilts on display, such as a crazy quilt made in 1905 that was submitted this year. Quilt submissions are excepted from anyone without charge, and there is no limit to the number of quilts each person can submit. Quilts can be new or old, and wall hangings were also accepted this year. “It’s sort of like going to grandma’s and getting in the trunk and pulling them out,” said Reece. “It’s part of history. A lot of people come to just to see all the different designs and get some ideas.” Viewers will get to vote on their favorite quilt in each category, and awards will be presented Saturday at 3 p.m. Awards will also be present to winners of the quilt art show. Submissions for the art show were accepted from students and individuals grades K-12. Entries were required

to be related to the quilting theme, and were judged last Friday. “We’re hoping to get the younger ones thinking about quilts,” said Reece. New to the quilt show this year is a tea time with the quilters, which will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Friday. Lunch will also be available both Friday and Saturday at a reasonable cost. Needles and Pins, an active quilting guild in Bethel Springs, also host a demonstration and sale in the gymnasium of the church during the quilt show. The group has been instrumental in raising funds for the building of the community center, and they strive to promote the art of quilting through their work. They meet three times a week, and are dedicated to keeping the craft alive in the community. In addition to the quilt and art show, there will also be an antique tractor show in the church parking lot on Saturday. This will be the third year for the tractor show. The quilt show will be open Friday from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m., and Saturday from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m., at the The Springs United Pentecostal Church (3591 Main St. Bethel Springs, Tenn). Admission is five dollars per person. The McNairy County Quilt Show is a great asset to the community. Each year it attracts people into the county from surrounding areas. New visitors and exhibitors continue to find their way to the show each year, and it truly is all for the love of quilting.

McNairy Voices: Do you believe in ghosts?

Amanda McVay (Selmer):

Mike Grier (Selmer):

Dan Nix (Selmer):

Sidney Hawkins (Selmer):

Christine Lynn (Stantonville):

Doris Roberts (Selmer):

Yes and No. Some people believe in aliens, why couldn’t there be little Casper’s floating around? I don’t doubt that people have had an encounter with the supernatural. I have never seen one and I really don’t want to ever see one.

“I haven’t had any experience with ghosts, but I believe it is possible. I don’t doubt the existence of anything these days.”

“No, I don’t. My wife does, however, but I do not.”

“Not really. No, I really don’t believe in ghosts.”

“Yes, I guess I would say I do. My kids are always playing jokes on me and saying the ghosts must have did it.”

“Not really. I’ve never really been afraid of ghosts, but I know there are things that happen.”

LetterS to the editor

Reader likes column, pans picture Jeff Whitten has been writing articles about Economics and Finances. They show a deep understanding as well as a knack for explaining complicated ideas in a way that is understandable and usable.

Keep it up. We need to know this stuff, especially now with things so tight. But Jeff, get rid of that picture. Looks like you’re lined up against the wall ready to be shot. And another thing, some-

times I get to feeling Selmer would be ok as soon as we have a few good funerals. We do have some real old soreheads. But along with that, we have some truly great people who have contributed mightily to this

place. Bert Maxedon is like a giant old white oak that has sent its branches out in all directions. I’d like to see something written about this great man. Wally Flint Selmer

Lady gives thanks to Westbrooks Regarding: Selmer Board moves to suspend officer Wednesday issue, Oct. 5th, Page 5A On one occasion I came to know the officer only as “Tony”. A couple years ago I moved to TN from North near Cleveland, OH. My first week here my wish was to attend Sunday church service at First Church of Christ on 3rd and Warren St. My min-

ister in OH had given me the address. My car began acting up after leaving the house in Bethel Springs. Mysteriously, the door locks clicked constantly, seatbelt warning beeped, wipers dry-wiped, and dash gauges’ needles rose and dropped continuously. It was right by the stop sign on 3rd Ave. in Selmer where my

car stopped running with accessories still acting crazy. The key wouldn’t budge, neither would the floorshift, nor the brakes. A smoky smell was in the air. A kind lady in a landscape business vehicle helped contact an officer. Tony arrived quickly as he was nearby directing church traffic. He called for Howell Towing. He also thought

best to immediately disconnect the battery cable to shut down the electrical system. And there I was, very new in the area with Ohio plates. Thank you to Tony and others. Yes, most importantly, I walked into the place of worship while we waited for the tow truck, to give thanks. Peggy Moffitt Bethel Springs

Adamsville officials should read constitution Adamsville, McNairy, Tennessee, United States of America... I, William M. Marts of Adamsville, Tennessee have been a resident here along with my wife, since October of 2002 at 119 Meeks Loop in the annexed portion of Adamsville. We like what the Lord has done for us and how we have been blessed. However, there is a social condition that has brought me much concern and grief. I believe that there is a very limited effort by the elected officials here in this city of Adamsville, Tennessee to execute their duties as described by the United States Constitution. Have you ever taken the time to re-familiarize yourself with the “Constitution of the

United States”? Now is the time! Go to the public library and read it there again. I took my oath and understood what I said and still do since 1948. I have been going to the City of Adamsville, Tennessee’s third (3rd) Monday of each month meetings since Mrs. Dwanna Pusser Garrison suggested that I go and present my very grave concern about the lack of responsible Municipal Management of that which is required for the good of the city! But! On Monday at 6:30 o’clock p.m. I attended that subject meeting with a report of a very dangerous situation that exposed my wife and me to extreme danger; but was denied to continue my communique and was told that

I would not be privileged to do so, and found out later that the Chief of Police radioed for a deputy to come to have me removed from the meeting. By the time he arrived I left with the verbal promise that if the level of danger ever happened and bodily harm occurred I would sue the Mayor (David Leckner) personally. Thus: I am going to report all those conditions that place the fine citizens of Adamsville, Tennessee’s well being in jeopardy by way of this writing in this Editorial page of your weekly newspaper, The Independent.. May I suggest to you that you go to the City Hall and ask to see the report that I presented back on May 16, 2011. Each Commissioner received a copy!

What happened occurred so fast I did not even have time to warn my wife. If you think this is “bunk” I will print the statements given by past Mayor Tommy Morris, and the views of Chief of Police, Bill McCall which will tell you what they really think of our fine city. Until next month. “Where there is NO vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. King James - Proverbs 29:18. God’s law as well as man’s law works both ways. Take that to the bank, for it is True.. Thank you, Bill Marts Adamsville

McNairy County Health Care

A friend to all

Ms. Wavie Louise Dickey Gibson

By Dorothy Goodrum Contributor

A friend is someone you can call at anytime and know you will not be turned away. Ms. Wavie Louise Dickey Gibson is a friend to all. Everywhere she goes up and down the halls of McNairy County Health Care Center, someone is saying “Hello Ms. Wavie”. Wavie Louise Dickey Gibson was born July 2, 1934 to George Washington Dickey and Ember Louise McDaniel Dickey. She was the oldest girl of eleven children including four half brothers and sisters. Now that is a full house. They could have their own television show today just like the Waltons. Ms. Wavie married the only man she ever loved, Mr. L. D. Gibson in 1954. They were married almost 36 years before he passed away. There were two daughters born to the Gibson union, Jean and Linda. Ms. Wavie also has seven grandsons, Jer-

emy, Andrew, Zachary, Michael, Josh and Billy. Now that’s enough boys to have a baseball team. She also has seven great grandchildren, Dillon, Lauren, Lacey, Jean, Little Larry, Hayley, Caleb and one more on the way. Ms. Wavie loves Three Musketeers candy bars and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. She also enjoys spending time with her two daughters. They are very attentive to their mom’s every need and visit very often. Santa’s gift shop is a favorite event for Ms. Wavie. She loves to carefully select a special gift for each family member. She puts lots of thought into what each one would like and she makes sure they are all wrapped just so. I have learned a very special lesson from Ms. Wavie. You see to have a friend you have to be a friend. I have been blessed in my life to have lots of friends including a very special one, Ms. Wavie Gibson. There is no better blessing I can think of. Until next time.....

Making McNairy County Sports headlines for more than 100 years

Volume 107, Number 21, Wednesday, October 12, 2011

Unbreakable spirit endures By Amanda Lowrance Head Sports Writer

Our local seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen banded together to paint the town blue and gold. Anyone driving through town could see that it was time for homecoming. A strong turnout at an extra-curricular pep rally at the park got the Cats fired up. It had the MCHS fans hoping that Amanda changing seaLowrance sons would come with a change in the Bobcats’ luck. This has not been the best season for the Bobcats. It has been almost a year since the football team last won a game. Before last Friday night, MCHS had a six game losing streak for this season. Did the fans give up? No. Looking at the town, a person would think that they had a six game winning streak. Almost every window in Selmer had McNairy Central graffiti. This just goes to show the old maxim, “It’s not whether your win or lose, but how you play the game,” holds true even today. This game felt like a new start for the team. Every team feels like they need to win their own homecoming and this game was no exception. The entire town turned out for homecoming. There was a new and fresh spirit in the crowd and the diehard cheerleaders persisted with their ‘never give up’ attitude on the sideline. Even Coach Jim Glover got into the spirit by wearing a special pair of lucky pants. Coach Glover used this good luck talisman when his beard didn’t shift the odds in the Bobcats favor for the previous game against Chester County. Also, several of the players were sporting pink wrist bands in support of the fight against breast cancer. The people rallied together to overcome adversity. The pink wrist bands, blinding argyle pants, and the blue and gold windows exemplify this. The lessons learned in high school football last a lifetime. It is a defining moment in people’s lives and the way that Selmer got behind their team will leave the lesson that as long as you don’t give up and fight for what you believe in that you can never be beaten. (The views in this column are the opinion of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Independent Appeal or its owner.)

Joyous homecoming for McNairy Central Bobcats

Central gets first win against district foe By Amanda Lowrance Head Sports Writer

McNairy Central won their first game of the season and their first District 14-AA contest against Jackson Central Merry, 36-17, last Friday night. After the beautiful Bobcat Homecoming ceremony, McNairy surged through the Bobcat banner and took the field against the JCM Cougars. Don Whittaker Memorial Stadium was flooded with people, and Emily Harris conducted the band to get the crowd upbeat and raring to go. Coach Jim Glover caught everyone’s attention with a bold, unique pair of blue and gold argyle pants. After the game the coach admitted to wearing the pants for good luck to break the bad luck losing streak after a full beard worn against Chester County the previous week had failed. “We stressed all week for the players to play loose and in the moment,” said Glover. “We talked to them about playing 6 seconds at a time. They relaxed and played the best game they had all

year.” The game was intense and had everyone anticipating a victory. The Bobcats played an amazing game. Mistakes did not break their spirit and victory prevailed. The game was delayed in the fourth quarter as a Cougar was carried off the field on a stretcher, and according to the sideline, it was an injury to the hip that left him immobile. The passing game was not very successful against the Cougars, so the Bobcats opted to run the ball and they began to see progress on the field. “Hayden Kiestler and Justin Sutton had big nights on offense,” said Glover. Justin rushed for 218 yards and Hayden rushed for 123.” Sutton led with 22 carries and scored a total of three touchdowns while Kiestler had 18 carries and one touchdown. “Defensively, the defensive line led the way,” said Glover. “Avery Skinner, DJ Lynum, Kennon Strickland, Kooper Davis, Marco Vaughn, and Teeko Davis

Perseverance key in Cards’ win over Tigers

First victory over HCHS in two decades By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

Staff Photo by Andrew Alexander

Running back Zak Neary steamrolls past a Tiger defender in the Cardinals’ 17-14 victory over Hardin County last Friday night. Neary led Adamsville in rushing yards with 69 on 22 carries.

Coming off a record setting offensive performance the week before, the Adamsville Cardinals made history again last Friday by beating Hardin County 17-14, marking the first time in the school’s history that its football team defeated both its rivals, Hardin County and McNairy Central, in the same season. “It was a big victory for us,” said Cardinal Head Coach Brandon Gray, “and I believe everyone got their money’s worth.” When asked what it meant to defeat both rivals in the same season, Gray told the Independent Appeal, “I guess it means we have a pretty good ball team.” Gray is right. His Cardinals have won seven games in

2011, defeating four Class 4A or above teams in the process. “Anytime you play someone bigger and come out with a ‘W’ it’s a good thing,” Gray said.

Last Friday night was no different for Adamsville. The air was electric at Jim

County Champions soar over Panthers By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

The Bethel Springs Rebel football players, coaches, and cheerleaders gather around their championship trophy after the teams win over McKenzie.

Battle of the Rebels, Bethel tops McKenzie By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

The Bethel Springs Rebels were invited to Bethel University in McKenzie, Tenn. to take part in the 2011 mckenzierebel.com Bowl where they were victorious over the Rebels of McKenzie Middle School 3222. The first quarter ended tied 6-6 after a 1-yard touchdown run by Bethel’s Darwin Kelley and an equalizing 7-yard touchdown run by McKenzie. Bethel went on to score 12 unanswered points before halftime, making the their lead 18-6 at the break. McKenzie came out in the third quarter ready to make a run, scoring a touchdown to cut Bethel’s lead to four points. But the McNairy County Rebel squad quickly countered with a Tata Newsom 37yard touchdown run, making the score 24-14. McKenzie answered back moments later with a 34-yard touchdown pass, but Bethel would not be stopped in their quest to win their seventh

game of the season. Newsom broke a long 75-yard touchdown run, and a mckenzierebel.com Bowl record before the third quarter ended. Neither team crossed the goal line in the fourth quarter, and the game ended 32-22 in Bethel’s last game of 2011. Newsom finished the bowl game with 216 yards rushing on 18 carries and three touchdowns, and also picked up six tackles. Dylan Crabb completed four of his five passes for 129 yards and a touchdown to go along with seven tackles. Darrius Sanders caught a touchdown pass and had 76 yards receiving and recorded one tackle. Kelley scored a rushing touchdown, picked up 12 yards rushing on three carries, 53 yards receiving on three receptions, and had three tackles on defense. Dalton Gates and Dakorea Dillworth each intercepted a pass and recorded one tackle. Beau Barnes finished the game with four tackles. Jeremy Harris, Braxton Turner, and Garrett King each had two

tackles. Mykeal Hudson, Jesse Magill, and Austin Pace had one tackle apiece. This year’s bowl game between Bethel and McKenzie saw 16 bowl records broken with Bethel breaking, or tying, 11 of them. Team records that were broken by Bethel include, most total yards by both teams (532 yards), most passing yards in a game (129 yards), most first downs (13), and most time of possession (19:25 minutes). Individual records broken by Bethel include, most yards rushing (216- Newsome), most carries in a game (18- Newsom), longest run from scrimmage (75-yardsNewsom), longest pass play (76-yards- from Crabb to Sanders), most rushing touchdowns (3- Newsom), and best passer rating (362.72Crabb). The win over their Rebel counterparts gave Bethel a 7-1 record in 2011, which is a vast improvement from their 3-4 record in 2010, and a championship trophy earned in their bowl game victory.

The Adamsville Junior High Football Cardinals beat the Decatur County Middle School Panthers for the first time last Thursday, 44-12, in their last game of the 2011 season. “It was great to finally get a win over Riverside and end the season with a win,” said AJHS head coach Michael Harvill. “It’s been a joy coaching these boys and watching them improve week to week. I look forward to seeing them play on Friday nights in the future.” The Cardinals forced a three-and-out on the Panthers’ first possession and took their first play from scrimmage to the house, scoring on a Dakota Banks 21-yard scamper to make the score 8-0 after the successful 2-point conversion. On Adamsville’s second play of their second drive, Bobby Moore scored on a 21-yard touchdown run. Trevor Reece punched in the 2-point conversion, and AJHS led 16-0. The ensuing kickoff spelled disaster for the Cards’ special teams unit as they watched the Riverside returner streak down the sideline for a touchdown, making the score 16-6 after their failed conversion attempt. Adamsville put together a seven-play drive to answer that was capped off by another Moore touchdown run, giving AJHS a 24-6 lead with four minutes remaining in the half. Riverside got the ball back, and on their first play of the next drive, ran for a 55-yard touchdown run, cutting the Cardinals’ lead to 12. Reece, and the Cardinals, answered back again as he sprinted for a 56-yard touchdown run, giving AJHS a 32-12 lead at halftime. Adamsville put another six points on the board when Moore scored once again two

Banks ended the Panthers next drive by ripping a completed pass out of the hands of a Riverside receiver for an interception. The Cardinals capitalized on the turnover with a 18-yard touchdown pass from Devin Cooper to James McDonald shortly after the fourth quarter began, and the game ended 4412 in favor of Adamsville. Moore scored three touchdowns and ran for a team high 131 yards. He also led the team on defense with eight tackles. Reece amounted 84 yards on the ground and scored one touchdown. He also had two tackles on defense. Banks scored a touchdown, ran for 55 yards, intercepted a pass, and picked up five tackles in the season finale. Cooper completed one pass for 18 yards and a touchdown, and also had six tackles. McDonald caught the touchdown pass for an 18-yard gain, and collected two tackles on defense. Zach Howell completed one pass for nine yards. Hutch Hefner picked up 19 rushing yards and four tackles. Ben Chrest-

man also had four tackles, and Alex Seaton recovered a fumble on defense. Jarrod Lobb, Benji Smith, Olan McCall, Mitchel Howie, and Derryck Irwin each had one tackle apiece. Harvill said there are a lot of people that needed to be thanked for the season the Junior Cards had, going 4-0 in the county, winning the county championship, and finishing 6-1 overall. “I thank Coach Lambert for his excellent planning, coaching, and strategizing on the defense,” Harvill said. “He always does an outstanding job.” Harvill thanked his players, their parents, cheerleaders, fans, family and the Lord above as well. “I thank the players for all their hard work and dedication. I thank the parents for supporting us and loaning out their kids to us for a little while,” said Harvill. “I thank the cheerleaders for their encouragement. I thank all the fans for their continued support. I thank my family for their support. And last, but not least, I thank God for allowing me to coach such a fine group of young men who are blessed with a lot of talent. It’s been a pleasure.”

Selmer Middle School lost their last football game of the 2011 season against Chester County 36-6 in Henderson, Tenn. Oct. 3. The Lions could not get their offense going in the first half and found themselves trailing 28-0 at halftime. The Eagles crossed the goal line again, making the score 36-0, before Selmer’s Logan Roberts found Nicholas Dickey for a 21-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter. The score cut the Eagle lead to 30, but the Lions failed to find the end zone again, and the game ended 36-6. Tough defense was not enough as Colton Wesson recovered a fumble for Selmer, and Roberts and Dylan Sweat led the Lion defense with four tackles apiece. Roberts gained 43 rushing yards and completed one of his three passes for 21 yards and a score. Dickey caught one pass for 21 yards and scored a touchdown. Jeremiah Sanders picked up 31 yards on the ground, and Lorenzo Clark managed to gain 24. The Selmer Middle School Lions ended their season 2-6 overall with a 1-3 record in the county.

“Brock Osweiler will have to be huge for the Sun Devils to beat the Ducks. Luckily, he’s 6’8” and 240lbs.”

Pick’em participants persistently precise in Week #6 By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

How about those pickers? Week #6 of the 2011 Independent Appeal College Football Pick’em featured three matchups between Top 25 teams, and almost all of our contestants picked at least four teams correctly. Sixty-five percent of the participants finished 4-1 or better, and no one missed more than two games. Head coaches Brandon Gray and Jim Glover each went 4-1. Gray held on to his third place spot and is 19-11 with his picks thus far, and Glover crept back into contention after improving his season record to 16-14. Coaches Brandon Alldredge, Renard Woodmore, and myself finished Week #6 3-2. Out of this week’s Facebook contestants Kevin McLemore earned a $25 gift certificate to Saw Meal Restaurant, going 5-0 and winning the tiebreaker over Kirby Davis. McLemore’s predicted point total of 44 was only 12 points off the actual total between Georgia and Tennessee, which ended in

disappointment for Vols fans with a Bulldog 20-12 victory. In other action, LSU and Oklahoma proved they deserve their high rankings in every football poll known to man. The Tigers think gator tastes like chicken, and devoured Florida 41-1l. The Sooners did not have to circle the wagons. They just rode right over top of the Texas Longhorns 55-17 in the Red River Rivalry. Coach Glover was right in saying “Bobby P. has got the Hogs rolling.” The Razorbacks of Arkansas pummeled the up-and-down Auburn Tigers 38-14. Rounding out the week’s action, Nebraska broke scarlet and gray hearts, scoring 28 unanswered second half points against Ohio State to defeat the reeling Buckeyes 34-27. Somewhere Ed Frizell is smiling. This week’s games will, again, pit three Top 25 teams against one another. Denard Robinson and the 10th ranked Wolverines will take on 19th ranked Michigan State in East Lansing. The dancing machine, Mike

Gundy, will take his high scoring, 7th ranked Cowboys into Austin to coral the Texas Longhorns who dropped to 21st in the coaches poll after the beat-down they took from Oklahoma. The 5-1, 20th ranked Arizona Sate Sun Devils will head north to Autzen Stadium to battle the 9th ranked Oregon Ducks for second place overall in the Pac-12. The Volunteers will get another chance to make their pickers happy, if they have any in Week #7, when they host the 2nd ranked LSU Tigers. Tennessee has not beaten the Bayou Bengals since 2005. Two SEC teams no longer in the Top 25 will fight it out to possibly sneak back in when Auburn welcomes Florida to town. Both teams are 4-2 going into the matchup. Those interested in playing along for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Saw Meal Restaurant should log onto Facebook, “like” the Independent Appeal, and submit their picks on the 2011 College Football Pick’em post for Week #7.

Long two weeks for MCHS volleyball Volleycats bid farewell to seniors after district tournament departure By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

The McNairy Central Volleycats have been busy. In the last 12 days, the team has played six matches in a tournament in Franklin, Tenn., four matches inside their district, said “goodbye” to their seniors in their last home match of 2011, and ended their season in a close match with Liberty in the District 14-AA Tournament.

LTHS 25 18 25 25 MCHS 18 25 22 21

McNairy Central put up a valiant effort, but came up short against Liberty Tech. in the first round of the District 14-AA Volleyball Tournament at South Side High School in Jackson, Tenn. last Monday night. The Volleycats dropped the first set to the Lady Crusaders 2518, but bounced back in the second to win 25-18. MCHS lost a tight third set 25-22, and ended their season with a 25-21 loss in the fourth. Tierra Lusk led the team with three aces on 11 service points. She also recorded seven kills and eight digs in her last volleyball match as a Volleycat. Emily Kennedy posted five aces on 11 service points, two kills, and four digs in her final match. Callie Horton was credited with two aces on seven service points to go along with ten digs for the senior. Rachel Burns finished her senior year picking up five kills and three blocks. Bri Bodiford led the team in assists with eight, served up an ace, and had 10 digs. Tiffany Winebrenner served up two aces, pounded down three kills, picked up five digs and an assist, and had one block. Zipporah Woods finished the match with two kills, two assists, and one block. Mikaela Rowland led the team with 13 digs, and Macee Taylor got in on the action with a block. MCHS finished the season with a 10-22 record in 2011 and lost four valuable seniors, but head coach Crystal Slaughter will return 15 players from this year’s team, including solid contributors in Winebrenner, Bodiford, and Woods.

The Volleycats celebrated their “Senior Night” last Thursday, honoring the careers of their four seniors, Callie Horton, Emily Kennedy, Tierra Lusk, and Rachel Burns, for their accomplishments on and off the court before the team’s district match against the Lexington Lady Tigers. MCHS put up a good fight against the Tigers, but failed to defeat their district’s top team in any of the three sets, falling 25-17, 25-23, and 25-14 in their last contest at home this season. Lusk finished with two aces, four kills, and eight digs. Horton had one ace and 14 digs. Kennedy finished with two kills and five digs, and Rachel Burns had one kill, one dig, and one block. Tiffany Winebrenner led the team with five aces, seven kills, 11 digs, and a block while Bri Bodiford pitched in with two kills, 11 digs, and 12 assists. Mikaela Rowland had two kills and six digs in the match, and Zipporah Woods had three digs. The loss wrapped up the regular season for the Volleycats because their match scheduled against South Gibson last Saturday was canceled because SGHS was on Fall Break. MCHS finished the regular 5th in District 14-AA and traveled

In the first match of two played against the Jackson CentralMerry Cougars Oct. 4 the Volleycats performed well, beating JCM in three straight sets. MCHS trounced the Cougars in the first set 25-13, but was sleep walking through the second set only beating JCM 25-23. The Volleycats woke up and became a nightmare for their opponents in the final set, winning with ease 25-8. Rachel Burns led the team with five aces, and also had a kill. Bri Bodiford led the team with 12 assists, and also picked up three aces, two kills, and a dig. Tiffany Winebrenner led the team with eight digs, and also had three aces and two digs.

The Volleycats were victorious, once again, in the second match of two played against the Cougars of Jackson CentralMerry Oct. 4 on Jerry Lott Court at McNairy Central High School. “I think we did pretty good tonight,” said Volleycat Head Coach Crystal Slaughter. “I tried to get some players that don’t get much varsity time in as much as I could.” MCHS continued the day’s winning ways with a 25-11 win over the Cougars in the match’s first set, and another in the second 25-17. Head coach Crystal Slaughter gave the Volleycats’ junior varsity squad a go in the third, and they battled tough but fell 25-22 to the Cougar varsity team. Slaughter put the varsity starters back in the game, and the Volleycats rolled to a 25-14 victory in the fourth set. Bri Bodiford ended her second match of the night with 17 as-

Mikaela Rowland finished with two aces, four kills, and two digs. Tierra Lusk had one ace, four kills, and four digs. Callie Horton led the team with six digs and served up two aces as well. Zipporah Woods had two kills, and Rachel Burns picked up a kill and a dig. Junior Mikayla Siler finished with two aces and four digs, junior Macee Taylor had three aces, one kill, and three digs, junior Charity Surratt finished with three digs, junior Kassie Humphreys had two digs, sophomore Morgan Williams had four digs, and sophomore Addison King finished with one kill and one dig. Slaughter said the Cougars were a little under-developed, and most of their players had never played volleyball before this year. “It’s kind of hard to play against that. There’s a dig, a set and a spike, and we’re used to that,” said Slaughter. “We’re not used to them throwing the ball over every time they get a chance... but we did a pretty good job tonight.” The two wins over JCM improved MCHS’s record to 4-7 in the district and 10-20 overall before playing their last match of the regular season against Lexington who was 25-9 going into the contest.

The Volleycats traveled to Henderson, Tenn. Oct. 3 and took on the Chester County Eaglettes, losing in three straight sets. “There weren’t a lot of good things to say about our match at Chester County,” said MCHS Head Coach Crystal Slaughter. MCHS was crushed in the first set 25-6. They recuperated quickly and put up a better fight in the second and third sets, but still fell 25-17 and 25-19 to the Eaglettes who finished the regular season 20-5 overall. The loss dropped the Volleycats to 2-7 in the district and 8-20 overall before their doubleheader against Jackson Central-Merry last Tuesday.

Carroll finding his stride at APSU By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

Carroll Stadium. The energy could be felt pulsating from both sides of the stands as the fans of AHS and HCHS got ready for some football. Unfortunately, the chain gang did not have the chains, so kickoff was delayed. On second play from scrimmage, the Tigers coughed up possession of the football on a botched handoff, and Adamsville senior Josh Burks recovered the fumble, giving the Cardinals their first possession of the game on the Tiger 22-yard-line. Adamsville senior Drew Griswell caught a 9-yard touchdown pass from Dalton Plunk on the sixth play of the Cardinals’ opening drive. After Dustin Plunk’s PAT, AHS was up 7-0 with 8:15 to play in the first quarter. Two offensive possessions later, AHS began an 11-play drive that was capped off by a 23-yard Dustin Plunk field goal with 8:44 to go in the second quarter. The Cardinals’ defense remained as tight as a drum for the remainder of the half, and Adamsville enjoyed a 10-0 lead over Hardin County at halftime. The Tigers came out with a renewed sense of urgency in the second half, shutting AHS down on their first drive of the third quarter. Momentum began to swing Hardin County’s way when they got the ball back. An eight-play drive riddled with Cardinal penalties culminated with an eruption from the Tiger fans after a 27-yard touchdown cut Adamsville’s lead to four. The extra point was good and the Tigers trailed 10-7 with 6:19 left in the third quarter. Another eruption of cheers burst from the Hardin County faithful on Adamsville’s ensuing drive when an interception

on third-and-long for the Cardinals gave the Tigers the ball back on the 38-yard-line. Adamsville’s crowd rallied when they saw their boys might be in trouble, and the defense answered the call. Josh Shoate intercepted a fourth down Tiger pass with 1:50 remaining before the final quarter, effectively quieting HCHS fans and shifting momentum back to AHS’s side. Shoate capitalized on his own forced turnover by dragging three HCHS defenders into the end zone for a 21yard touchdown reception from Dalton Plunk, wrapping up a 13-play, 59-yard drive that chewed 5:08 off the game clock, and gave AHS a 17-7 cushion after Dustin Plunk’s second successful PAT. The Tigers did not roll over. Hardin County marched down the field on a 10-play drive and cut the lead to three once again with 4:56 lingering in regulation, and the tension mounted, but not before a scary moment after the touchdown when Blake Edwards was laying motionless on the turf. Thankfully, he returned to the sideline under his own power to the cheers of relief from both sidelines. Adamsville converted a fourth-and-short after forcing the Tigers to burn all of their timeouts, and the Cardinals successfully whittled away at the remaining time, clinching a win over Hardin County for the first time in two decades. “It’s a whole lot better feeling as a coach than it was when I was a player,” said Gray, proud of his players’ accomplishment, “because I know how those players feel, and no one can take that away from them.” Gray was happy with the way the his team battled adversity and the atmosphere in Savannah. “We overcame some injuries,” he said. “Everyone stayed composed, they didn’t panic, and I was pleased with that.”

Shoate finished the game with an interception that sucked the life out of HCHS’s fans, a touchdown that put the game out of reach, two receptions for 39 yards, one run for nine yards, and two tackles on defense. Burks led the Cardinal defensive effort causing and recovering a fumble early in the game, and leading the team in tackles with five. Dalton Plunk completed seven passes for 83 yards and two touchdowns. Zak Neary carried the ball 22 times, gaining 69 yards in the process, Taylor Alexander had six touches for 33 yards, and Hayden Reece picked up 55 yards on five runs to go along with two tackles on defense. Griswell caught a 9-yard touchdown pass, Jalen Kendall caught two balls for 18 yards, and Kasey Hurley had 21 yards receiving on one reception and also had two tackles on defense. Senior Chase Gunn recorded four tackles while Josh Lunsford and Blake Elrod were credited with three. Edwards, Seth Killingsworth, Bradley Hornbuckle, and David Grisham had two tackles apiece, John Reed Odom, Drake Fox, and Logan Saunders each had one. Dustin Plunk converted his 29th and 30tn extra points of 2011, and also made his first field goal of the year. The Cardinals have won seven consecutive games since their season opening loss to Chester County, and will play their last district game of the season in Middleton Friday against the 2-6 Tigers. “Middleton has played us tough,” said Gray, “and they’ll come out with something to prove.” Teams on all levels of play, in any sport are prone to overlooking opponents, but Gray does not feel like the Cardinals will be looking anywhere but at Middleton. “Our kids will stay focused on Middleton,” he said. “We haven’t looked down the road yet, and we’re not going to start this week.”

Austin Peay State University’s, and McNairy County’s own, Josh Carroll got off to a modest start in 2011, but has come on strong lately, working his way into the Governors’ defensive rotation. The Governors of APSU fell to the Big East’s Cincinnati Bearcats Sept. 3 in their season opener, but Carroll, former Tennessee Mr. Football and AHS Cardinal, performed well at linebacker, recording five tackles on the day, according to the team’s official website. In the APSU’s following match-up against the University of Memphis Tigers Carroll recorded three tackles in the 27-6 loss, increasing his total to eight in his sophomore season. APSU began the season 0-2, but in their third contest Carroll had a breakout performance, racking up nine total tackles and 1 1/2 tackles for loss in the Govenors’ 23-17 victory over Eastern Kentucky. Carroll followed that up with eight more tackles and another for a loss against the Tennessee State Tigers, and the Governors won their second straight game to even their record on the season at 2-2 as AHS’s former tackling machine began to find his groove in the college ranks.

APSU fell in their next matchup to UT Martin, 61-23, but Carroll led the Governors on defense with nine tackles, increasing his season total to 34.

The Governors will host Jacksonville State University Saturday, as Carroll continues to carve out his place on APSU’s defense.

Maybe the distraction is what the Yankee fans have argued for years. The other team cannot seem to take their eyes

off the pinstripes just as they cannot take their eyes off the coach’s standout pants. “I still think our best football is still to be played,” said Glover. “I want to thank everyone for their continued support.

Bolivar won last week’s game against Fayette Ware 5228 and currently carries a 5-2 record. With the win, McNairy holds a 1-6 record. “We are looking forward to our upcoming game next week,” said Glover. “It is senior night and we want to recognize our seniors for their great leadership this season.”

MCHS breaks even in district matches By Andrew Alexander Sports Writer

In McNairy Central’s last two matches, they have played two district opponents, winning one at home and losing one on the road.

LTHS- 6 MCHS- 3

The Lady Bobcat soccer team took on the Liberty Tech. Lady Crusaders Oct. 4 in Jackson,

Tenn. Despite two early goals from senior Kindra Brown, McNairy Central lost the match 6-3. “We had a good offensive effort,” said MCHS assist coach Jerry Lott, “but missed several breakaway attempts.” Brown scored a goal off an assist from Allyson Frye in the 10th minute of the match, and another, marking her 12th goal of the season, off a Mallorie Sweat assist in the 15th minute to get MCHS off to a good start.

The Lady Crusaders were not detoured by Central’s first half offensive, and took a 4-2 lead into the half. Junior Shawna Roten was awarded a penalty kick in the 49th minute of the contest and scored on the attempt, giving her four goals in 2011, but Liberty was just too much for the Lady Cats to handle as the match ended 6-3 in favor of the Lady Crusaders. Freshman goalkeeper Laralee Williams was credited with 16 saves on 21 Liberty shots on goal. “Defensively, we had too many breakdowns that gave them some open looks,” Lott said about the loss. The loss dropped the Lady Bobcats to 3-7-1 overall. The team traveled to Jackson, Tenn. last Tuesday and took on the 10-3 Madison Academic Mustangs in a game that was originally scheduled for last Thursday.

McNairy Central showed no mercy in their 7-0 stomping of the Jackson Central-Merry Cougars Oct. 3 at Selmer City Park in a match that the Lady Bobcats pelted 26 shots on goal. The game was originally scheduled for Sept. 19, but was cancelled due to rain. “We had good balance on of-

fense with six players scoring,” said MCHS Assistant Coach Jerry Lott and, “Everyone got a lot of playing time at different positions,” which will be vital for Bobcat success in their upcoming district tournament run. Freshman Rebekah Lowrie got things started for the Lady Cats, scoring her 10th goal of the season off a Mallorie Sweat assist only three minutes into the match. Senior Sarah Hunter scored Central’s next two goals in the 15th and 22nd minutes of play, also off of Sweat assists. Sweat found the net for a goal of her own minutes later, and sophomore Frakia Robinson scored her first goal of the season right before halftime, giving MCHS a 5-0 lead. Junior Makayla Holley and Laralee Williams also scored their first goals of the season to round out the MCHS scoring. On top of her goal and three assists in the match, Sweat also recorded three saves when she got some time as the Lady Bobcats goalkeeper. Williams also recorded two saves to go with her goal scored as JCM only managed six shots on goal against the tough MCHS defense. The Lady Cats improved to 3-6-1 after the win, and moved on to play the Liberty Tech. Lady Crusaders Oct. 4 in Jackson, Tenn.

Dog days of summer at Ramer Junior High School (RJHS) - Ramer Junior High reading classes have gone to the dogs...but in a great way. Pat Murphey’s students in grades six through eight have just completed their first novels of the school year. Within the story of each of the novels was a dog—which played a significant part in the story. As an extension of their study of the students in each grade had projects to complete. Emily Crabb, project coordinator, detailed each of the projects as follows: 6th grade Old Yeller Students collected “Dog Data” and created graphs indicating types of dogs, types of food eaten, and types of homes the dogs had. Students created a Dog Identification Manual complete with 10 different dog breeds with facts, figures, and illustrations of each. Each student prepared a corn recipe which coincided with details from the novel. There was quite a collection of grilled/roasted corn and corn waffles to sample! 7th grade Where the Red Fern Grows Students completed an assortment of items as part of their study of the novel—which included: a dog bank, hand-decorated dog collar, tin lantern, coonskin cap, raccoon puppets, character drawings, dog biscuits, and as a cooking activity, “puppy chow.” 8th grade Summer of the Monkeys Students made a Monkey-Catching Manual complete with all the styles of traps and devices used by Jay Berry Lee while trying to capture the escaped circus monkeys. Manuals had decorated covers, illustrated trapping methods, a table of contents, and a summary. Students also completed a writing assignment a full character sketch of Jay Berry Lee from the novel.

UT Martin earns sixth listing among America’s 100 best college buys MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin is listed for the sixth consecutive year among America’s 100 Best College Buys, a listing compiled by Institutional Research & Evaluation, Inc. “High quality and low cost are a rare combination in any product, yet for the sixth consecutive year, we are proud to recognize the University of Tennessee at Martin as being among those very few educational institutions that consistently provide both,” said Lewis Lindsey Jr., IRE president.
