Prosecutors are considering seeking the death penalty against a man charged with murdering a Conover couple on June 2. But Rowan Sheriff’s Office investigators continue to close gaps and build a case against 25-year-old Fredrick Sylvester Hedgepeth. Investigators met Tuesday with District Attorney Bill Kenerly and Assistant District Attorney Karen Biernacki to review the case. Sheriff Kevin Auten said Wednesday a decision on whether to pursue capital punishment hasn’t been made. Hedgepeth is charged with two counts of murder and other felonies in the shooting death of Jerry Wayne Bullin, 72, and his wife, Jo Anne “Jody” Adkins Bullin, 70. He is being held without bond in the Rowan County jail. On Tuesday, Auten and Investigator Teresa Haupt attended a memorial service for the Bullins at Rock Barn Country Club, near where they lived. Auten said they went to show support for the fam-

Man charged with ethnic intimidation Suspect accused of pointing gun at 75-year-old woman

GRANITE QUARRY — Police say a Salisbury man pointed a gun at a 75-year-old woman while shouting racial slurs at her. Larry Eugene Craver, 58, of 255 Teague Road, is charged with two counts of communicating threats, two counts of assault by pointing a gun and ethnic intimidation. Sgt. R.T. Taylor of the Granite Quarry-Faith Police said the incident occurred May 29 around 12:30 p.m. at Fred’s Department Store at 908 N. Salisbury Ave. According to a police report, witnesses told Rowan County Sheriff’s CRAVER Deputy D.W. Dearth and Granite Quarry Officer Howard Dearth that the 75-year-old black woman drove into the parking lot in front of the store and stopped to let her grandson out.

Underwood won’t go free while awaiting decision on new trial BY JESSIE BURCHETTE

jburchette@salisburypost.com

L.C. Underwood, a former Salisbury police officer, will stay in jail as he awaits another court decision on a possible new trial. The same federal court which held out the possibility of Underwood going free has ordered he stay in jail as the court process continues. In December, the federal court vacated his 13-year-old murder conviction in Watauga County. At that time, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, based in Richmond, Va., ordered Underwood be granted a new trial or be released from jail in 180 days, which would have been this month.

[xbIAHD y0 0 1rzu

The 58-year-old Underwood is in the state correctional facility at Marion. Earlier this year, N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper, acting on behalf of the N.C. Department of Corrections, asked the Fourth Circuit to stay the order pending the state’s appeal. The court granted the stay. The lat- UNDERWOOD est appeal process is likely to take a year or more. The filing from the Attorney’s General’s Office cited several factors for the stay, including “a strong interest” in keeping Underwood in

custody until the appeal process is complete. Lamont Claxton Underwood, known as “L.C.,” was convicted in 1997 in Watauga County Superior Court for the 1993 kidnapping and murder of Viktor Gunnarsson, a 40year-old Swedish citizen who was a resident of Lakewood Apartments off Statesville Boulevard. The trial drew international attention since Gunnarsson had been accused and cleared in the 1986 assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme. Underwood is serving a life sentence plus 40 years. Prosecutors contended that Underwood was jealous of Gunnarsson, seeing him as a romantic rival for Kay Weden, Underwood’s former fi-

ance. Prosecutors contended that Underwood stalked, spied on and harassed Weden, eventually kidnapping Gunnarsson from his home and taking him to a secluded area along the Blue Ridge Parkway in Watauga County before shooting and killing him. The state also contended that three days later, Underwood shot and killed Weden’s mother, Catherine Miller, at her home in the Westcliffe subdivision off U.S. 70. Underwood was never tried for Miller’s death. In December, the Fourth Circuit ruled that Underwood had ineffective counsel, questioned the defense’s trial strategy and concluded it was unsound. The court cited mishandling of

several issues, noting that “the defense (attorneys) essentially inflicted a fatal wound to the credibility of their own case.” In the 27-page opinion, the court repeatedly cited the defense attorney’s opening remarks to the jury promising an array of evidence and testimony, including a confession from someone else, an eyewitness who saw someone else outside Miller’s house at the time of the murder, and an eyewitness who saw someone else near where Gunnarsson’s body was found in Deep Gap. When the state rested its case, the defense declined to put on any evidence. The state Supreme Court upheld Underwood’s conviction in October 2000.

More machinery on way to site of oil spill

2010 could become a new political year of the woman WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s looking like a new “year of the woman” in politics. Eighteen years after a few glass ceilings were broken, hundreds of female candidates have set their sights on Congress, governorships and state legislatures, and a significant number racked up wins in Tuesday’s primaries. Republican women, in particular, served notice to the old boys of the party. In California, two wealthy businesswomen who had reached the highest ranks of the corporate world, Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina, captured the GOP nomination for governor and Senate. In Nevada, tea party-backed state

S.C. Rep. Nikki Haley was among women who won in Tuesday’s primary. She will face Rep. Gresham Barrett in a runoff election in two weeks. legislator Sharron Angle seized the GOP Senate nod and will face Democratic Leader Harry Reid. South Carolina State Rep. Nikki Haley brushed aside allegations of infidelity and an ethnic slur to grab the commanding spot in the GOP gubernatorial runoff. One of the night’s biggest winners was two-term Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln, who scored a narrow victory over liberal Democrat Lt. Gov. Bill Halter in a primary runoff. Joining these women were Roxanne Conlin, who won the Democratic Senate nomination in Iowa, and Elizabeth Mitchell, Maine’s Democratic nominee for governor. Mitchell is the first woman in the nation to serve as both state Senate president and state House speaker. In 1992, voters sent record numbers of women to Congress — 24 to the House and five to the Senate. Women angered by the predominantly male Senate’s questioning of Anita Hill, who had accused Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment, decided to make their point by ousting the men.

Mexican soldiers accused of chasing off U.S. Border Patrol CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) — Pointing their rifles, Mexican security forces chased away U.S. authorities investigating the shooting of a 15-year-old Mexican by a U.S. Border Patrol agent on the banks of the Rio Grande, the FBI and witnesses told the Associated Press. The killing of the Mexican by U.S. authorities — the second in less than two

weeks — has exposed the distrust between the two countries. Mexicans see the death of the boy on Mexican soil as an act of murder. Shortly after he was shot, Mexican soldiers arrived at the scene and pointed their guns at the Border Patrol agents across the riverbank while bystanders screamed insults and hurled rocks and firecrackers, FBI spokeswoman Andrea Simmons said. “It pretty quickly got very intense over on the Mexican side,” she said, adding that FBI agents showed up later and resumed the investigation.

FBI apparently paid van der Sloot in sting operation WASHINGTON (AP) — Did the U.S. give the man suspected in Natalee Holloway’s disappearance the time to go to Peru and kill a woman there? Federal law enforcement officials acknowledged Wednesday they had Joran van der Sloot under criminal investigation last month, but they said they still had to prepare evidence and charges to obtain custody in Aruba, where the Alabama teenager disappeared five years ago and where van der Sloot was still living. The FBI thought it was closing in on the 22-year-old Dutchman. He was videotaped and paid $25,000 in a sting operation. But when the agency delayed his arrest, he took the money and headed for Peru, where authorities say he now has confessed to killing a different young woman.

WASHINGTON (AP) — About 5,500 years ago, someone in the mountains of Armenia put his best foot forward in what is now the oldest leather shoe ever found. The well-preserved footwear was made of a single piece of leather, laced up the front and back, researchers reported Wednesday in PLoS One, a journal of the Public Library of Science. Shaped by the wearer’s right foot, the shoe was found in a cave along with other evidence of human occupation. The shoe had been stuffed with grass, which dated to the same time as the leather of the shoe — between 5,637 and 5,387 years ago. “This is great luck,” enthused archaeologist Ron Pinhasi of University College Cork in Cork, Ireland, who led the research team. “We normally only find broken pots, but we have very little information about the day-to-day activity” of these ancient people. “What did

ily in the face of a terrible tragedy. The service included video of the family during happy times. He said it was obvious from the large number of people who attended and their comments that the couple was well known and well liked. Auten and several others from the Sheriff’s Office met family members when they came to Salisbury on Saturday afternoon to see the location where the Bullins were killed. The Bullins’ bodies were found locked inside Ingram MotorSports on Auction Drive, off Webb Road, after their daughter became concerned that a planned car sale had gone bad. She called Catawba County 911. The call was relayed to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office. Those who gathered Saturday placed flowers at the entrance to Ingram MotorSports. Several family members also thanked deputies for their efforts in solving the murder. Auten and Lt. Chad Moose said they have reassured the family that the Bullins did nothing wrong. Auten said they acted with prudence in setting up the meeting to sell the car at a business on an afternoon, when they expected other people would be present. Family members have said the Bullins were trying to sell a 2009 Honda Accord LX to get out of a monthly payment. The car was apparently advertised in the classifieds of the Hickory Daily Record. Through phone records, investigators have verified Hedgepeth made contact with Bullin, apparently related to the advertisement. Jill Feldmeyer, the daughter who called 911 when she couldn’t reach her parents on their cell phones, was scheduled to meet with investigators today. Recent developments or issues in the case include: • A preliminary autopsy report shows both Jerry and Jody Bullin died of gunshot wounds. Investigators declined to reveal the number of shots or locations. They believe Jody Bullin was shot while sitting in a Hyundai Sonata — the family’s other car, which she had driven to Ingram MotorSports. The rear window was

Jody and Jerry Bullin shot out and there was blood in the vehicle. • Investigators have asked the federal ATF to investigate the ownership of the .40-caliber Taurus handgun authorities recovered. • Hedgepeth was apparently living at Ingram MotorSports as the caretaker. The building had sleeping quarters. • Investigators believe Hedgepeth showed Jerry Bullin something — perhaps a bank bag — purporting to have $17,000 in cash he was offering for the Honda Accord. Investigators didn’t find any money, other than what they believe the Bullins had. Investigators found personal items belonging the couple in Charlotte, where they located the Accord at the home of Hedgepeth’s girlfriend, Alyssa Carolina Watts The 20-year-old Watts, of 4924 Morgan Street, has been charged with two counts of accessory to murder after the fact and remains in the Rowan County Detention Center under $100,000 bond. • The Bullins had leased the Honda Accord with an option to buy and had apparently worked out a deal to get out of the lease payment by selling the car. Auten and the District Attorney’s Office are working to expedite the release of the cars to the family. Both vehicles are being held in impound and could be there for months, depending on what tests defense attorneys request. That leaves the family or estate making the monthly payments. • Investigators aren’t sure where Hedgepeth is from or where his family is located. He had not lived at the Campus Walk Lane address in Charlotte for possibly years. He had been evicted. He has used several names and spellings of names.

BP, energy stocks a drag on Dow NEW YORK (AP) — The stock market had another late-day slide, this time because of fears that the Gulf oil spill will threaten BP’s dividend and perhaps land the company in bankruptcy court. The Dow Jones industrials, up about 125 points late Wednesday morning, closed down 41. Most selling came in the last hour, the third time in four days that stocks had a late-day drop. Investors got a “sell” signal from news reports that raised the possibility of worsening financial fallout from the oil spill. A group of about 30 U.S. lawmakers sent a letter to BP CEO Tony Hayward asking him to halt dividend payments and advertising until the leaking well is capped and the spill is cleaned up. Investors tend to sell any time a company’s dividend appears to be in jeopardy. BP is scheduled to make a $2.63 billion payout on June 21. And Fortune.com quoted an analyst as saying BP could be forced to seek bankruptcy protection within about a month. The worries about BP were enough to make investors shrug off reassuring words about the economy early in the day from Federal Reserve

Chairman Ben Bernanke. BP fell 15.8 percent to a 14-year low and selling spread to other energy companies. Anadarko Petroleum Corp., a part-owner of the rig that caused the spill, dropped 18.6 percent. The slide in energy stocks halted the market’s upward momentum, said Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak. “The oil stocks are getting killed. They’re widely owned so anytime you see that kind of activity it makes people nervous,” Boockvar said. The drop came a day after the Dow climbed 123 points on easing concerns that the economy would fall back into recession. The confidence extended into the first part of trading Wednesday, lifting the Dow back above 10,000, after Bernanke said debt problems in Europe might only amount to a “modest” drag on the U.S. economy. The Dow ended Wednesday at 9,899.25 after trading as high as 10,065.14. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 6.31, or 0.6 percent, to 1,055.69, while the Nasdaq composite index fell 11.72, or 0.5 percent, to 2,158.85. Gold prices fell $15.70 to $1,229.90 an ounce.

He got called out last Wednesday evening for the Bullins death investigation. After an all night, all-out effort focusing on the Bullins murder, Moose was back in court and on the stand last Thursday to testify in the trial in which Nelson was convicted.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — BP plans to bring in an oil-burning device and a tanker from the North Sea as it tries to contain the crude spewing into the Gulf of Mexico, a disaster creating headaches for people who make money off the sea and those processing their claims of financial loss. The current containment system is catching 630,000 gallons of oil daily, Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen said at a news briefing in Washington. Officials had previously cited that figure as the system’s general capacity, but Allen said officials now believe it can handle 756,000 gallons. Even so, there’s still more oil eluding capture. BP is bringing in a second vessel that will increase capacity, as well as the North Sea shuttle tanker, which will assist in the transport of the oil, and a device that will burn off some of it. The company previously said it plans to switch out the current containment cap with a slightly larger one that will seal better and trap more oil. The government is also keeping an eye on how BP is reimbursing people for their losses. Allen has written to BP CEO Tony Hayward demanding “more detail and openness” about how the company is handling mounting damage claims, reminding the beleaguered executive that his company “is accountable to the American public for the economic loss caused by the oil spill.”

CRITERIUM CRITICISM

BY JESSIE BURCHETTE

jburchette@salisburypost.com

The foreclosure sale of the long-planned High Rock Raceway in Spencer has been rescheduled for the second time. Initially set for May, it had been rescheduled to 11 a.m. Wednesday. An attorney with the Charlotte firm of Gerdes, Mason and Simpson announced the new date Wednesday morning at the Rowan County Courthouse. The sale is now scheduled for July 30. Ambit Financial, based in Ohio, is foreclosing to satisfy a $1.6 million mortgage against the 200plus acres of the former Color-Tex/N.C. Finishing Co. property on U.S. 29, along the banks of the Yadkin River. The mortgage holder is a Florida-based company, High Rock Lenders LLC, according to documents on file at the Rowan County Register of Deeds. A prior mortgage holder scheduled an auction of the property more than two years ago, but it was also canceled when the owners were able to secure other financing. A separate auction was held on Friday to satisfy the court judgment for a Greensboro veterinarian. Doug Thomas of F&C Development, who was involved in the initial grading for the track, bid $1,200, starting a process where bids can be upset during 10 day cycles. Dr. Anthony Flores, one of an estimated 100 people who paid $25,000 for a membership in a proposed racetrack country club, went to court when High Rock Properties officials refused to refund his payment. The court-ordered sale process started several months ago but ended when officials discovered a complete legal description of the property had not been included in legal advertisements. The initial bid on that sale was $600 from a farmer interested in turning the property into pasture for his cattle.

East Spencer names interim police chief The town of East Spencer has named Lt. Floyd Baldo as interim police chief. The former chief of the East Spencer Police Department, Ron Hines, resigned on May 20. He had served as chief since October 2008. Town officials were surprised by Hines’ resignation in May, but he simply said, “It was time.” The next police chief will be the fifth person to hold that title since 2005. Mayor John Cowan said Baldo was named interim chief because he is the highest-ranking officer in the department. After East Spencer finds a new town administrator, Cowan said, that person will then be in charge of selecting a permanent police chief. The process of hiring an administrator is set to be completed in one to two months.

Police: Man had guns, drugs at East Rowan A Salisbury man has been charged with possession of guns at East Rowan High School. Charles Devon Purser, 39, of 221 Yost Farm Road, is charged with driving while impaired, two counts of possession of a firearm on school property and multiple drug charges. Granite Quarry-Faith police, assisting the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office, responded to a call from East Rowan High School that a person was intoxicated and passed out behind the wheel of a vehicle in the parking lot. PURSER First Sgt. R.T. Taylor located the vehicle in a parking space in front of the school. According to Taylor, Purser had an open container of alcohol sitting between his legs. After removing Purser from the vehicle, the officer saw two loaded handguns in the front seat and a bag of marijuana in the floorboard. He also found a marijuana cigarette in the cup holder in the center console. Police took Purser to Rowan Regional Medical Center for a blood test, then to the county magistrate’s office. While Purser was being processed around 10 p.m., police executed a search warrant at his house. Taylor reported the search yielded numerous items of drug paraphernalia, several small bags of marijuana and five bags containing a total of 3.4 ounces of marijuana seed. After the search, Purser was charged with possession with intent to manufacture, sell and deliver marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, two counts of simple possession of marijuana and possession of Alprazolam. He was also charged with felony possession of marijuana. He was taken back to the magistrate’s office where his total bond was set at $3,500.

In last year’s criterium, cyclists sprint to the finish line. The championship race returns to downtown Salisbury this weekend. BY SHELLEY SMITH

ssmith@salisburypost.com

While many residents and business owners say they’re excited about the N.C. Criterium Championships to be held in downtown Salisbury this weekend, one resident who lives along the race route says she’s not happy with what she sees as inadequate efforts to prepare citizens. Jo Linn Cash, who lives on Bank Street, said in an e-mail to the Post she has nothing against the cyclists, but criticized the city and Downtown Salisbury Inc., which is coordinating activities surrounding the races. “The Salisbury Police and Downtown Salisbury are not working with the citizens affected by the race this weekend,” Cash wrote in her e-mail. Cash said the “first and only” contact she received about the event was a flyer posted on her door Tuesday night. “No consideration was given to residents so that they could plan accordingly,” Cash wrote. Friday’s races will close streets downtown from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and Saturday’s races will close roads from noon to 8 p.m. The route begins at the intersection of Lee and Fisher streets, travels west and takes a left onto Main Street, travels two blocks south and turns left on Horah Street. From Horah, cyclists will make a left onto Lee Street, a right onto Bank, a left on Long Street, and then a final left onto Fisher before ending at Lee

Street. “We handed out flyers that have the dates and times for street closures,” said Lt. Melanie Thompson of the Salisbury Police Department. “I also put my cell phone number on the flyer. If (anyone) needs to leave their house, they can call me and I will have an officer meet them (to guide them out).” Thompson said each racing event will have 13 officers on hand for security and to assist with traffic and parking. The Meroney Theater, which is presenting “Moonlight and Magnolias” this weekend, has reserved parking behind city hall and along the west side of Main Street in the 200 and 300 blocks. “Letters will go up Thursday night stating there will be no parking between the racing hours,” Thompson said. “If they park, they will be towed. “Our biggest thing will be accommodating the Meroney Theater and its patrons. We will get them through the Main and Bank street intersection, too.” Another Bank Street resident, Maria Hall, disagreed with Cash about the races. Hall noted some concerns but said she hopes such events bring people back to Salisbury. “It does create traffic problems, but a lot of things create traffic problems,” she said. “It brings commerce here, and brings people here. “I’m glad they’re riding through my neighborhood. I hope they enjoy their stay and

hope they’ll come back to Salisbury.” Cash also wrote in her e-mail that she believes streets around town have been repaired “not for the citizens who pay taxes but for those who will only spend a short time in our fair city.” Steve Weatherford, head of Salisbury’s Street Division, said streets are being patched for the race, but he said that’s not unusual. “When we do have events, we clean up,” he said. “The Pops at the Post, where 3,000 people attended, we got out there and cleaned up.” And Weatherford said the department is “patching streets all over town. Street cuts were done by Piedmont Natural Gas, and while we’re in an area, we look at other things.” Several business owners said they are looking forward to the races and the visitors. Rose Meeks Jones, owner of the Blue Vine on Main Street, is serving lunch Saturday because of the events. “We think it’s a great thing,” she said. “Anything to bring customers into the area — the more

the merrier.” Jones said parking is “always an issue with downtown. If people want to come to something, they can find a place to park, and make it work.” And she said the race and other events in Salisbury are “a great sign of growth for our community.” Brick Street Tavern will close its parking lot Friday night, hosting a band from 5:30 to 7 p.m., and will set up tents serving beer and water. The tents will also be up Saturday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. The races begin Friday at 6 p.m., Saturday at 1 p.m., and Sunday, around the City Park, at 8 a.m. “I know it’s somewhat of an inconvenience, but we work with neighborhoods and accommodate them as much as possible,” said Thompson, of the Salisbury Police Department. “We are always accommodating to the people who live in the (racing) areas. “We dealt with this in the City Park for the past three years and have never had any complaints.” For more information on the races, you can visit www. carolinamasterscycling.com.

Backyard BBQ Cookoff fires up Saturday B Y S USAN S HINN

For The Salisbury Post

CHINA GROVE — What better way to spend a Saturday than with good friends and good barbecue? Main Street Mission and Oak Grove Baptist Church are sponsoring the inaugural Backyard BBQ Cookoff. The event takes place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the ballfield of Mount Zion United Church of Christ, China Grove. The two churches are a quarter-mile apart, separated only by cemeteries. Tickets are $10 and include samplings of chicken, ribs and brisket. Judging takes place at 11 a.m. and food will be served beginning at noon. Plates also include side items and a drink. Desserts may be purchased separately. Tickets are still available. “We want to sell 300 tickets,” says Anne Corriher, director of Main Street Mission. “I think we’ve sold half already.” Organizers see the event as a way to bring the community together. Proceeds will be divided equally between Main Street Mission and the We Care Ministry of Oak Grove Baptist Church, which provides assistance to local families in need. The cookoff is the brainchild of John Cathcart, a member of Oak Grove who loves to grill. “He has been to backyard barbecue competitions and he knows some of them can be re-

Cathcart knows grilling teams from all over, and has brought a dozen of them together for Saturday’s competition — some teams from as far away as Charlotte and Raleigh. “We need to get out from our own little walls and we need to work together,” Corriher says, and Cathcart agrees. “I have always wanted to put on an event like this before,” he says.

“We wanted to merge with Main Street Mission to really get the community involved. It’s a way to break down some of the barriers we’ve had and fellowship with one another.” Volunteers from Oak Grove, a black congregation, have worked for years at Main Street Mission. The cookoff is just the beginning of the partnership.

COMMISSION TAKES ANOTHER LOOK

Reconciling with CCOG

What online readers are saying about ...

fter indicating last year that they were on the verge of instigating divorce proceedings against the Centralina Council of Governments, Rowan County commissioners haven’t entirely given up on salvaging their relationship with the planning agency. If they can do so with confidence that the county is getting its money’s worth in a marriage of equals, that would be a beneficial outcome for all concerned. As you may recall, the relationship hit a rocky patch when Rowan, Cabarrus County and several other CCOG members said they no longer believed they were getting an adequate return for their annual membership fee, which for Rowan is $34,000 annually. In the case of Rowan and Cabarrus, local officials had some specific complaints related to CCOG’s priorities and its involvement in I-85 projects, including highway widening and replacement of the Yadkin River bridge. In addition to providing planning services for jurisdictions in the region, CCOG also facilitates the procurement and allocation of some federal monies that go to counties and municipalities. At Monday evening’s commissioners meeting, CCOG leader Al Sharp said the agency had listened to disaffected jurisdictions and was refocusing its mission on core regional issues “that affect us all.” But his assertion that the county has not taken an active role in some aspects of CCOG’s economic development work, specifically infrastructure planning, suggests local leaders need to do some refocusing as well if this partnership is to bear fruit. The county and municipal officials who’ve voiced dissatisfaction with CCOG haven’t disputed the importance of a regional approach to air quality, economic development, transportation and other important issues. The question has been whether CCOG (and the Charlotte Regional Partnership, to cite another group that has drawn similar criticism) offers the most equitable and effective means to devise solutions, coordinate projects and help secure grant money and other resources. While Rowan County commissioners listened to Sharp’s plea for their continued membership, they’re not yet ready to make a longterm commitment. As of now, the proposed budget includes next year’s dues allotment, but the board has asked the county manager to take another look at whether the county is getting enough bang for its CCOG buck. So, can this marriage be saved? Both CCOG and its disgruntled partners would benefit from an amicable resolution. The region needs a structured approach to issues that overlap jurisdictional boundaries, and Rowan needs to take a strong role in shaping policies that will affect its future.

We appreciate your newspaper highlighting the private bail industry in the June 8 articles “Hunters of men — Bail bondsmen know how to track ’em down” and “Here’s how being bail bondsman works.” As president of the North Carolina Bail Agents Association, there are a few items about the private bail industry that I’d like add. In addition to the two bail agents you highlighted in these stories, there are more than 1,200 hardworking men and women who comprise the private bail industry in North Carolina. Every day these men and women work tirelessly to reduce jail overcrowding and bring defendants back to court, which helps ensure that our state’s court system runs smoothly and efficiently. The efforts of these bail agents to return defendants for court saves our state’s taxpayers $2 billion or more each year. The private bail industry is successful at bringing defendants to court because private bail agents are financially tied to the bonds that they issue. We have personal and financial incentives to keep track of the defendants that we monitor. And we do all of this work at no added cost to the state’s taxpayers. In addition, if a bond is forfeited the forfeited bond amount is, by law, given to the North Carolina public school system. — Mark Cartret Wilmington

Knox changes Knox Middle School has been and always will be a dumping group for some people. That’s just the way it is. I’ve visited the school on several occasions, as my niece is a student there. She is a good child and attends church regularly. She also stands for and honors the pledge. One would have to be blind not to see how the school has changed since Principal MoragneEl left. The school has gone back more than a few steps. The kids are not as disciplined. I understand that Principal Burton is not familiar with the population at Knox and may be a little nervous. If he wants to gain the respect of the kids, he has to get to know them. Our kids don’t respect weakness and want someone strong as well as caring. The students are beginning to sag again, wear shirttails hanging out and talk back to teachers, some of whom are actually nervous. When I was in school, the last thing I wanted was to be sent to the princpal’s office. These kids don’t mind going to Burton’s office. What they don’t want to face is the vice principals. That’s not good. Knox needs a leader with some backbone, or it is going to crumble. All of the kids are not bad and disrespectful. Some want to learn and are determined to get an education. But what about those who disrupt class and impede the learning of others? What about those who don’t play by the rules? Mr. MoragneEl may not have been perfect, but given a chance, he would have cleaned Knox up. The kids respected him and knew he cared about them. Someone better take control soon. It is no longer the “New Knox Middle School.” — William Alexander Jr. Salisbury

Rotary Club plaque unveiled The Salisbury Rotary Club’s founding is now part of the city’s History and Art Trail. Some 100 people gathered outside the Plaza Tuesday to celebrate the unveiling of a plaque noting the club’s first meeting in that building 90 years ago. It’s the 20th plaque on the trail, said Barbara Perry, chairman of the city’s Public Arts Committee. Clay Lindsay first approached the committee about a marker to commemorate the club’s approaching anniversary last year when he was club president, Perry said. Current president Dianne Scott followed up, and the plaque became a reality. Ed Clement, who served as club president in 1964, talked about the club’s history. He said it made sense to meet again where the club began, a building with many Rotary connections. “The Wallaces owned it for many years. Ralph Ketner bought it, remodeled it and donated it to the people of Salisbury in 1991,” Clement said. And several members now live in the Plaza, including Dr. Charles Steinman. The names on the initial roster include names still found in Salisbury, including Crawford, Davis, Heilig, Hurley, Morris, Ramsay, Rouzer, Snider and Wallace. “And on that warm night in 1920, these men must have looked out over the town they loved and began to think about how they could make it better, how they could give it a bright future.”

The club led the effort to pass a $500,000 bond issue for the construction of Salisbury High School and helped raise $150,000 to relocate Catawba College in Salisbury. As the club moved forward through the years, service to youth was a consistent theme. Club projects included the Student Loan Fund to assist college seniors in the 1920s, sponsoring calf shows for young farmers, offering counseling programs for high school graduates, sponsoring students to travel and study abroad, starting the Sea Scout Program, initiation of a Boys Club and a Rotary Day Camp and longtime support of the YMCA. The club honors top graduates of Salisbury High School as Junior Rotarians. The club also established a scholarship fund which enabled it to give $1,000 scholarships to 23 students this year. “Now Rotary is even better — more widespread, stronger, more inclusive,” Clement said. He challenged club members to “look over our wonderful city and think of what more we can do to make it better. To give it a brighter future.” Scott, who is winding up her term as president, has ended each meeting with the Rotary International theme for the year, and she did so again. Scott said she couldn’t think of a more appropriate time to remind club members, “The future of Rotary is in your hands.”

N.C. MarketReady wins grant to expand ‘Produce Lady’ B Y E MILY F ORD

KANNAPOLIS — A program that teaches people how to use local fruits, vegetables and other farm products has received a grant worth nearly $100,000 to expand. The Produce Lady program, based at the N.C. Research Campus, promotes North Carolina produce with online videos and personal appearances at farmers markets across the state. “The Produce Lady has gained quite a following,” Leah Chester-Davis, coordinator of communications and community outreach for N.C. MarketReady in Kannapolis, said in a statement. “Many people visit farmers markets just to meet her.” Brenda Sutton, director of Cooperative Extension in Rockingham County, portrays the Produce Lady. The $91,937 grant from the N.C. Tobacco Trust Fund Commission will en-

courage more consumers to buy from North Carolina farmers, which will benefit the state’s economy and improve health, Chester-Davis said. The Produce Lady will use the grant to serve up new Web resources, healthy cooking demonstrations, an e-newsletter, online videos and printed materials that promote North Carolina fruits and vegetables and the farmers who grow them. “The Produce Lady is exceptionally valuable because she speaks directly to consumers and farmers in a way they can relate to,” said Billy Carter, chairman of the N.C. Tobacco Trust Fund Commission. N.C. MarketReady operates under N.C. Cooperative Extension and N.C. State University at the Research Campus, a life sciences complex focused on health, nutrition and agriculture. To learn more, go to www.theproducelady.org.

'Although the Curtain Falls'

There comes a time for all of us when we must say goodbye, but faith and hope and love and trust can never, never die. Although the curtain falls at last is that a cause to grieve? The future's fairer than the past if only we believe and trust in God's eternal care. So when the Master calls, let's say that life is still more fair although the curtain falls.

when Grady was seriously injured on his job and had to undergo four operations over a period of time. “It wouldn’t have been right for me to just go off and leave him in that condition,” she says. So for two and a half years, she worked three part-time jobs so she could care for him and still pay the bills. Grady had recovered by the time Shirley was given an opportunity to continue her education at Duke University. She earned her master’s in teacher education and history in 1977 after taking classes over a period of two years. Shirley’s first job with the Rowan-Salisbury schools was teaching pregnant teens and students unable to attend classes due to illness. After that, she accepted a job working in the Title 20 reading program at Henderson Elementary for a semester before starting at Knox in 1976 as an eighth-grade history teacher, switching to the seventh grade about five years ago. “I miss teaching eighth grade,” she says. “We used to take the students to Washington, D.C. One year, we took four busloads.” In studying a particular country, Shirley would set up a museum of photos and artifacts from the country in her classroom. “When you would walk in,” she says, “it looked just like you were entering a museum.” Shirley says she has been close to her students. “I’ve had some who wanted me to adopt them,” she says, “and I’ve had several write me a letter asking if they could come live with me.” Frances McCray, who called the Post when she heard there was a story being written about her sisterin-law, says Shirley and Grady used to take some of her students out to eat, “with their parents’ permission of course.” McCray says Shirley received calls from her former students asking for her help with their papers in college. This was back before the days of computers, she says, so Shirley would box up information on the topic of the students’ papers and send it to them. It’s fun going places with Shirley, McCray says, because all of her former students recognize her. That could be because she hasn’t aged, Perry says, adding that she doesn’t even look to be 50. “I don’t know a positive way of putting this,” McCray says, “but some of her students who have made some wrong decisions will see her and say, ‘Hey Mrs. Moss, do you remember me? I was bad, wasn’t I?’ “They take their hats off when they see her. To me that’s saying something. Like I said, everybody remembers Mrs. Moss. They make it sound like two syllables — ‘MizMoss’ — instead of two words.” Shirley credits her success in school to her mother. “Anything lower than a B was not accepted,” she says. “She encouraged all of her children.” As a teacher, Shirley says she received lots of support from McCray and her husband’s aunt, the late Vera Moore, both retired teachers. “And I’ve enjoyed working with really everybody that has been at Knox,” she

the legislation that would peel the power away from Lay’s agency. The Senate’s version of the state budget includes similar language. The dispute stems from a state Court of Appeals ruling last May that found Wal-Mart Stores Inc. created a complex corporate structure in which subsidiaries paid rent or dividends to each other primarily to avoid corporate income taxes due to North Carolina. The three-judge panel also ruled the state tax agency has the authority to combine the finances of multiple subsidiaries in a single return to allow it to determine Wal-Mart’s North Carolina tax bill. The state Revenue Department then launched a special collection effort and in the second half of last year collected $424 million in back taxes from 236 corporations that had previously disputed their tax bills. News of the higher tax collections cheered lawmakers in January. The sum was nearly $277 million more than the $150 million state leaders had expected to collect. Legislators are counting on the heightened corporate tax collections to bring in another $110 million in the next budget year.

Shirley Moss discusses a paper with Keyasianique Johnson.

RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina could lose hundreds of millions of dollars if lawmakers take away the threat of big penalties against tax-avoiding companies, the state’s top tax collector said Wednesday. Legislation being negotiated in the General Assembly would block the state Revenue Department from slapping the penalties on multistate companies viewed as trying to move profits around the country to avoid paying taxes, Revenue Secretary Kenneth Lay said. A proposal would block penalties of 25 percent for a large tax underpayment and 10 percent for negligence. “What’s the incentive for a corporation not to engage in this behavior if that’s what they intend to do?” Lay said. Individuals or smaller companies who heavily underpay their taxes could still be hit by a 25 percent penalty, he said. “We would not be treating everyone equally,” Lay said. But Sen. Dan Clodfelter, D-Mecklenburg, said companies now can be surprised by the penalties they didn’t know could come. The antitrust and trade lawyer has sponsored

Grace Hodge, who has cystic fibrosis, center, is surrounded by Salisbury High School's National Honor Society members, who helped raise funds for Team Saving Grace.

Students raise money for cystic fibrosis This is the third year that the National Honor Society students in Rowan County partnered with Team “Saving Grace” (Cystic Fibrosis Foundation) in a six-week challenge. Once again, all six high schools participated to help raise awareness of cystic fibrosis and to help raise money to help fund needed research. Team “Saving Grace,” formed five years ago in honor of now 8-year-old

Grace Hodge of Mount Ulla, challenged each area high school’s National Honor Society to participate in this fundraising event. The challenge was to see how many pin-ups they could sell during this time period and which NHS raised the most money per student. These students raised more than $5,000 during this six-week challenge. Each student who participated in this event is a winner and helped to

make a difference in the lives of more than 30,000 children and young adults suffering with this fatal disease. Salisbury High School’s National Honor Society raised the most money per student; they also won the competition the first year. The students unanimously declined any type of recognition and advised the team to donate the money that would have funded the luncheon to the CFF.

Sponsors of this event were Bill Godley, Godley’s Garden Center & Nursery and Greg Edds, State Farm Insurance. Team “Saving Grace” would like to thank and congratulate all the students who participated; congratulate the winning team and thank Salisbury High NHS for their generosity in donating back the luncheon; and thank Bill Godley and Greg Edds for their support and generosity.

During the week of June 1, Rowan-Salisbury fifth-grade AIG students participated in a daylong event based on popular television shows. Students from 19 elementary schools attended this event, held at Horizons Unlimited. TV shows included “CSI,” “MythBusters,” “Amazing Race” and “American Idol.” Students used problemsolving and teamwork skills to complete a variety of tasks. For “CSI,” students entered a mock crime scene in which they had to determine

the suspect. In “MythBusters” and “The Amazing Race,” students solved puzzles and science and math-related activities. In “American Idol,” students used their creative talent and music ability as they worked with Dr. Rob (Dwayne Robertson), a music teacher at Granite Quarry and Millbridge Elementary, to create a music video. Some songs included: “I Gotta Feeling,” “Under the School Roof,” “Allstar” and TV themes such as “Gilligan’s Island” and the “Addams Family.”

Southeast students win Carowinds coaster contest On May 7, the Coaster-mania competition was held at Carowinds. The competition consisted of teams across the state in elementary, middle and high school. Approximately 25 teams presented coasters this year to be judged against one another for the following categories: Most Creative, Most Unique and Best Name. Then, each elementary, middle and high competed for first place against others from the same age groups. All three category winners were from Southeast Middle School. First place and Most Creative winner for the middle school age groups was awarded to “The Mother-

load” from SEMS. The theme was based on a gold mine. The track consisted of an above- and below- ground coaster that was visible through the plastic glass that encased the lower half of the coaster. “The Motherload” team members include April Abernathy, Jacob Brodie, Julianna Evans, Megan Hollar, Kayla Sigmon and Natalie Wincoff. Each team member received a ribbon for Most Creative and a free, one-day pass to Carowinds. The group received a first place plaque, which will be placed in the display case at Southeast Middle School, as well as a group photo.

Pfeifer wins 8th District Art Competition CONCORD — Tessa Pfeifer, a senior at Concord High School, won the 8th District Congressional Art Competition for the second time. U.S. Rep. Larry Kissell hosted the event at the Cabarrus Arts Council’s Davis Theatre.

Capitol in Washington, D.C. for one year, replacing last year’s winning piece, also from Pfeifer. Young people express themselves and follow their passion in art, Kissell said. “Several years ago, there was a move away from art in education,” Kissell said. “Now, we are working to ensure that creative arts are part of a well-rounded curriculum..” The Cabarrus Arts Council partnered with Kissell to Granite Auto host the reception, and the council judged the submis- Parts & Service sions.

Runners, walkers participate in 5K for Cowden

SUBMITTED PHOTO

Participants in the run for Tom Cowden at West Rowan High School. Tom, 13, was recently diagnosed with brain cancer. On May 22, a mixed group of caring runners, walkers, and supporters came to run/walk in the 5K For Cowden. Over the last three weeks, numerous participants, sponsors and donations have poured into West Rowan High School like the rain that fell on the participants in the race.

Coordinator Brittany Chester had no idea what the turnout would be when she began organizing the event to raise money for the Assistant Principal Nelson Cowden’s son, Tom, 13, who was recently diagnosed with brain cancer. “The response was truly amazing, and a God given blessing not only for Tom, but for our commu-

nity as we all came together for such a great cause and an even greater kid,” Chester said. The horrible weather forecast did not stop the 160 pre-registered participants from showing their love and support for the Cowden family. Nearly 20 more participants registered, with even more donations given that day.

Many runners were brought to tears as all involved lined up at 9 a.m. on the starting line to hear Tom’s younger sister Ivy, yell “Go Tom!” right before the race started to show her enthusiasm for her big brother. In total, The 5K For Cowden received 17 sponsors at $100 that bought the participants fruit, wa-

ter, shirts and prizes for the top three male and female participant. Cost of participation was $20 per person. First place finishers were Dillon Kluttz (West Rowan) at 19:05 and Sierra Zemanick (Carson) at 21:47. This event drew athletes and supporters from numerous counties to support the family.

Area students win awards Youth Commission International is a Christian nonprofit organization in Charlotte. The ministry offers assistance to middle and high school students to start Christian clubs on their campuses. The Eagle Awards Celebration began in 1999 as an event to honor teachers. In 2001, with the death of a popular YCI Club student from East Mecklenburg High School, Sarah Longstreet, the YCI staff decided to expand the Eagle Awards to honor other individuals who were making a difference on middle and high school campuses. With the death of another student, Leigh Lane Edwards, an award in honor of both girls, The Legacy Award, was determined to be the highest award given. A scholarship is given to the recipient(s). Here is a list of winners from

Rowan County: • Legacy Eagle Award with $1,000 scholarship: C.J. Riddle, East Rowan High School. • Parent Award: Darrell and Tina Hollar. • Middle School Faculty Eagle Award: Marian Greene Thompson, West Rowan Middle School. • High School Campus Pastor Award: Wallace Gaither Jr., East Rowan High School. • Outstanding Christian Leadership Award: Kathryn Heidt, Salisbury High School. • Outstanding Christian Leadership Award: Linda Castillo, Jesse C. Carson High School. Since its inception in 1995, the mission of Youth Commission International has been to foster the positive transformation of today’s youth by using Christian values to strengthen their academic, social and spiritual development.

China Grove 5K is Friday night CHINA GROVE — Main Street will be busy Friday night when more than 600 runners and walkers are expected for the county’s only night race. The China Grove 5K Main Street Challenge will start in the twilight at 9 p.m. and follow Main Street through town before returning to the finish area near the China Grove Roller Mill. The 13th annual event will also feature two shorter races for children. At 8:15, the Krispy Kreme Tot Trot will cover 200 yards for those 5 and under.

Additional sponsors include Duke Energy, Waste Management, Rowan Regional Medical Center, IC Heating and Air, JR’s Floor Care and Cheerwine. All proceeds will go the YMCA’s Invest in Youth Program. The YMCA of Rowan County provides more than $500,000 in

scholarship assistance each year. Entry fee for the 5K is $25. All participants will get a drifit shirt. The Krispy Kreme Tot Trot is free, but all kids 5 and under will get a medal.

A DJ and numerous vendors will add to the festive atmosphere. Overall, Masters and age group awards will be presented following the 5K. For more information, contact the South Rowan YMCA at 704857-7011. Race director is Aaron Crowe acrowe@ rowanymca.com

Incentives package clears House panel RALEIGH (AP) — Boosters of an economic development package that cleared a House committee Wednesday said it will help bring good jobs to the state and perk up the ailing tax base — even though a university study argues a portion of the tax breaks that would be extended are no longer effective. Part of the bill is similar to a measure designed to encourage computer data centers, an energy turbine manufacturer and a paper plant to expand in the state. Those expanded enterprises alone

could generate at least 1,200 jobs and more than $2 billion in capital investment, deputy state commerce secretary Dale Carroll said. The bill, if approved, could create $93 million in tax breaks annually by 2015, according to an analysis performed by legislative staff. But the measure should generate more tax revenues than it gives out to qualifying companies because the new jobs will generate income taxes and sales taxes from the items the workers purchase, said Rep. Bill Owens, a sponsor.

Kissell says former staffer broke rules RALEIGH (AP) — U.S. Rep. Larry Kissell is accusing his former staffer — who’s being urged by a unionbacked group to challenge him for his seat in November — of violating the rules of the House of Representatives. Kissell, D-N.C., wrote leaders of the House ethics committee on Wednesday alleging former Deputy District Director Wendell Fant used his title and government computer to work on his own Veterans Affairs case. Kissell said Fant resigned last month. The letter to the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct came the same day a union-backed group filed more signatures at county elections offices in hopes of running an independent candidate against Kissell in the 8th District. The North Carolina Families First movement wants Fant to run and said it will have more than 30,000 signatures turned in by today’s deadline. After Fant’s departure, Kissell’s staff later found documents showing Fant used his title and congressional resources to monitor his own mortgage modification and failed to report that he was working on the side as a

recruiter for a mortgage marketing company, Kissell wrote. E-mails and documents were forwarded to committee leaders. “Our office would have never approved this type of moonlighting due to the fact that we provide mortgage modification assistance to constituents and Mr. Fant’s outside employment represents a conflict of interest,” Kissell wrote to the committee chairwoman, Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., and Rep. Jo Bonner, R-Ala., the ranking GOP member. Fant didn’t return a phone call seeking comment at his Concord home. Dana Cope, an adviser to North Carolina Families First, called the allegations “laughable” and don’t tell the complete story. It shows the first-term congressman was nervous about facing another challenger this fall in addition to a Republican and a Libertarian, Cope said. North Carolina Families First is funded by Service Employees International Union and its local, the State Employees Association of North Carolina, of which Cope is executive director. The group is targeting Kissell because of his voting record, particularly for voting against

Open house for seniors at Oak Park Retirement There will be a Senior Fair/Open House at Oak Park Retirement so people can learn more about area services for seniors and those who care for them. The event is from 8-11 a.m., June 17, at Oak Park, 2250 Enon Church Road. There will be a buffet breakfast beginning at 8 a.m. followed by the fair with representatives from all phases of senior care. The event is free and open to the public. Organizers say this event will be of interest to seniors, their adult children, caregivers and anyone interested in learning more about senior care options. The event is sponsored by the Rowan Education and Advocacy for Choices in Healthcare (REACH) REACH is a professional group

of providers of services, primarily to seniors, who have joined together to network and make the community aware of services available to Rowan County seniors. Representatives from all aspects of care will be there to share information and answer questions. Among the many services/facilities to attend the fair will be those with assisted living, skilled nursing, home health care, in-home non-medical care, senior services, hospice, adult day care, senior transitioning/downsizing, durable medical equipment, independent living and the hospital. The breakfast is provided by Oak Park. For more information contact Robin Perry at Home Instead Senior Care, 704-636-2010 and for more information about REACH, visit www.reachforrowan.org.

the Democratic-penned health care overhaul legislation signed into law by President Obama. “We’re going to hold him accountable and he doesn’t like it one bit,” said Cope, calling the letter “just simply cynical Washington, D.C. politics.” Kissell spokeswoman Haven Kerchner said the letter was released because of “Congressman Kissell’s dedication to transparency, and that’s really all we have to say.” Kerchner didn’t know what the House ethics panel can do with the complaint of a former congressional employee. North Carolina Families First was unsuccessful in obtaining the more than 85,000 signatures it needed to become an official new political party in North Carolina this year so it could field candidates in at least two other congressional races. State election laws required nearly 17,000 verified signatures from registered voters in the 8th District. The state Democratic Party threw a political barb at North Carolina Families First on Tuesday, accusing the group of misleading voters into signing petitions. The group said that wasn’t true.

Tomato grower to pay $25,000 over pesticide use in 2004, 2006 RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina and a Florida-based tomato grower have agreed to a $25,000 resolution over accusations that workers were exposed to dangerous chemicals. Multiple media outlets reported Wednesday that the state Pesticide Board voted to accept the settlement with Ag-Mart Produce. Ag-Mart regional manager Jeffrey Oxley agreed to pay $24,000 for violations on farms in Brunswick and Pender counties in 2004 and 2005. He’ll pay another $1,000 for violations in Pender County in 2006. Oxley will not lose his pesticide applicator’s license, which the state had originally wanted. Agriculture department spokesman Brian Long says the settlement allows the state to avoid a lengthy court battle.

Thursday, June 10

Fit female questions shortness of breath Dear Dr. Gott: I am concerned about blocked arteries. I am 60 years old, 5-feet5, and weigh 115 pounds. I exercise three times a week, do 400 stairs a day, and walk two miles. My total cholesterol is 180, and the good/bad ratios are within good limits. I don’t have any problems with my blood pressure. I have an annual physical exam and b l o o d workups. However, lately, when DR. PETER doing my GOTT stairs, I experience occasional shortness of breath. I have a family history of stroke through my mother and father. Could I possibly have some type of blockage, even though all signs and tests appear normal? Should I request a stress test at my next physical? Dear Reader: Yes, you should. While you don’t mention your diet, I can only assume it is a healthful one. Oth-

erwise, it’s likely that your HDL, LDL and total cholesterol levels would be out of the normal range. You mention routine exams and lab work but don’t indicate that you have ever had a baseline EKG. You exercise extensively but have a positive family history that could be of concern. And you are 60. My guess is that you are a young 60, but because you even question the possibility of blocked arteries, you should request a stress test. Your physician should order one because of your age and the shortness of breath. A final possibility is that your problem is arising directly from your lungs. Request a chest X-ray and evaluation for possible pulmonary disease. To provide related information, I am sending you a copy of my Health Report “Coronary Artery Disease.” Other readers who would like a copy should send a self-addressed stamped No. 10 envelope and a $2 check or money order to Newsletter, P.O. Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 440920167. Be sure to mention the

title or print an order form off my website at www.AskDrGottMD.com. Dear Dr. Gott: Please explain where the idea of drinking “eight glasses of water a day” comes from. I have found no logical explanation. Dear Reader: Water makes up almost 60 percent of a person’s body weight and is vital for our well-being. It flushes toxins from the system, carries nutrients to all cells, and keeps us properly hydrated. So how much is too much? There is no scientific basis for the amount of fluids a person should ingest. Eight glasses of water daily is simply an easy rule of thumb. The recommendation for all fluid intake is 9 cups for women and 13 cups for men. This includes coffee, tea, milk, breakfast juices, soup broth and so forth. Keep in mind that we lose almost four cups of fluids daily because of sweating, urination, bowel movements and breathing. Then there’s humidity, illness, the occasional fever and exercise to consider. People who live in humid areas, have specific disorders, or are physically

active may require additional fluids because they sweat more than someone sitting behind a desk. Unless a medical condition or daily routine dictates diligent attention to fluid consumption, it certainly isn’t necessary to keep a checklist. Don’t allow yourself to become dehydrated; drink when you are thirsty. If you plan to hike, jog, play tennis, or perform physical activity, take along a water bottle and hydrate periodically. A good rule of thumb is to hydrate at appropriate times throughout the day and include a glass of water with meals. If your diet is a healthful one, you should have your fluid intake covered adequately. Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books, including “Live Longer, Live Better,” “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Diet” and “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook,” which are available at most bookstores or online. His website is www.AskDrGottMD.com.

Guess who’s not coming to dinner Dear Amy: I am in my mid40s and have been married for four years. On top of all the marital difficulties we’re having, my husband insists that I have dinner with his parents every Sunday, as well as every anniversary, birthday and holiday. The truth is, I don’t really like his family and I can only take them in small doses. They are loud, argumentative and mean. I make it a ASK point to acAMY company my husband every few weeks or so, and we spend every holiday with them. Today, my husband announced that his parents’ anniversary and his father’s birthday are coming up and that if I don’t attend “we’re through.” I was shocked by this ultimatum. I feel it is a complete betrayal of our marriage that he would back me into a corner like this. Spending time with his parents is very hard on me. They are very abrasive and

critical and I always leave feeling sad. My own parents are both deceased. This makes it even more difficult for me. We did things so differently in my family. Getting together was pleasurable and not something one “had to do.” What can I do? — Desperate Wife Dear Desperate: You can take your husband’s ultimatum as your invitation to talk. You don’t need to run this same issue into the ground, but really talk about your values, expectations, and about why you chose to build a life together, back before you got married. Don’t launch into a diatribe about his family. This issue is likely a stand-in for other problems. While you attempt to work this out, you’ll be thinking about your own choices. You have to take an objective look at your own behavior and admit your own shortcomings. See if there are ways you might be contributing to your husband’s frustration. You’ll also have to look at your choice to be with someone who insists that you spend time with people who (accord-

ing to you, anyway) are mean. You two would benefit from couples’ counseling. A therapists’ office is a good place to start these challenging conversations. Dear Amy: Each summer my wife and I attend a beach week with her family. One of the family members dominates most conversations with politics. I prefer to avoid hot-button topics just about anywhere, especially on vacation, and have politely mentioned this more than once. This person not only insists on discussing her topics, but she becomes emotionally involved when others disagree. I told my wife this is a sign of an empty life and of being self-centered, but she insists that this is normal for her family. I deal with enough unhappy people in the workplace. I can’t be the only person who feels that controversial subjects are not appropriate for a family vacation. Your advice? — Annoyed Dear Annoyed: Here’s my prescription for how to handle your in-laws during vacation:

United Feature Syndicate

In yesterday’s deal, declarer had to make it impossible for the opening leader to read his partner’s trick-one signal accurately. Sometimes, though, declarer must play the correct card to try to mislead the third hand. This deal — surprise, surprise! — is an example. Defending against four spades, West leads the heart three. South plays low from the dummy, and East produces the queen. Which card should declarer drop? North, knowing of a ninecard fit, added three points for his singleton. This made his hand strong enough for a game-invitational limit raise. (Note that his hand has only seven losers: one spade, two hearts, three diamonds and one club. This is the normal number for a game-forcing raise. However, with only eight high-card points, it is a good idea to be a tad cautious.) Since West would not lead a low heart away from the

ace, West cannot have a heart honor. So South can be confident that West has led a singleton. However, East won’t be certain — if South is careful. He must play the 10 under East’s queen. East must now consider the possibility that his partner led from J-9-3 of hearts. Yes, that would be unlikely, but it isn’t impossible. If, however, South plays the nine or jack, East will know the three is a singleton, because West would not lead the three from either J-10-3 (he’d pick the jack) or 10-9-3 (he’d select the 10). Notice one thing this and yesterday’s deals have in common. If declarer is play-

BULK

Now it is time to mislead righty BY PHILLIP ALDER

Take one beach chair. One paperback novel. One tall, cool drink. Stick your toes in the water. Sigh. Repeat. This year you should determine to take a vacation from worrying too much about other people’s characters, failings or behavior — even while being surrounded by them. If one person perpetually brings up a topic and nobody takes the bait, the topic melts away like a big scoop of ice cream dropped onto the boardwalk. If this family has a prevailing dynamic and you know what it is ahead of time, you should prepare for this year’s beach week by packing an extra book.

The main reason you're likely to achieve whatever it is you go after in the year ahead is because you won't be looking for easy outs. Expecting to work for what you get keeps you going in a positive direction, regardless of what occurs. Gemini (May 21-June 20) - If there is something you strongly desire, keep telling yourself over and over again that you can make it a reality. Your mind will eventually figure out a way to bring it into being. Cancer (June 21-July 22) - The way you quietly go about handling one responsibility after another will capture the attention of others. Don't be surprised if your modus operandi is copied by more than a few people. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Without even realizing it, you're likely to be a strong, independent pillar upon which associates can depend today. When asked to help, you'll do so without any fanfare or puffery. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Larger-than-life feats that others think of as being nearly impossible to do are what you'll tend to tackle today. It'll be your intelligence and determination that will enable you to accomplish such deeds. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - One of the principal reasons your popularity is on the ascent at this time is the wonderful gift you display for making every person you're with feel truly significant and interesting. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - It'll be no problem for you to solve issues that perplex others because your faculties for doing so are keener then usual. Once you focus on a dilemma, the answer will simply be there. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Arrangements or situations that require a collective effort will be your cup of tea. You'll not only be a good team player, but will know how to get everyone else focusing on the same goal. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Changing conditions at work could turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Remain calm when things are turning about, and let events show you what they have to offer. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - This could be a busier than usual day, but if you schedule your duties for early on, you should have ample time left to comfortably go with the flow of events as they unfold. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) - The reason why this day will turn out so well for you is your marvelous faculty for turning negative developments into constructive ones. Each happening will encourage positive thinking. Aries (March 21-April 19) - This is a good day for communicating with those who can do you some good. If there is one individual in particular who has lots of connections, cozy up to that person. Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Although it may not be perfect, your material well-being could start to take a big turn for the better. Utilize whatever you can whenever you can.

All in the family Mitchell takes over boys team at alma mater

The return of favorite son has North excited

here is only one thing that could make a man leave a program that has won two straight state championships and is on the verge of a third. Family. So when you ask yourself why Andrew Mitchell would leave the Salisbury girls for the North Rowan boys job, put yourself in his shoes. And that’s when you’ll realize his decision was a no-brainer. There’s much loyalty at North Rowan. The man RONNIE Mitchell replaces, Kelly GALLAGHER Everhart, grew up within shouting distance of the gym. He came back to coach. Now, he’s leaving it to another former Cavalier athlete in Mitchell. Yes, the decision was difficult for Mitchell, who coached a Salisbury team where success seemed never-ending. He tried to put the North opening in the back of his mind, but the community wouldn’t allow him to do that. His family wouldn’t allow him. Athletics director Brian Mills and principal Darrell McDowell wouldn’t allow him. “I was trying to close the door,” Mitchell smiled Wednesday. “Coach Mills and Mr. McDowell wouldn’t let me close it totally. I left a little crack because I wasn’t totally sure.” • Then came the phone call that made Mitchell realize going back to his alma mater was the right thing. “My dad called me one night out of the clear blue,” Mitchell recalled. “He said, ‘I think that North job will be great for you.’ He went on with his reasons. I always listen to my parents. When he called, it really got me thinking about

Former North Rowan basketball star Andrew Mitchell is leaving the Salisbury girls to coach the boys team at North Rowan.

See GALLAGHER, 3C

SPENCER — As soon as Kelly Everhart told North Rowan athletics director Brian Mills he was stepping down after 12 years as the Cavaliers’ boys basketball coach, a light went off. “My first instinct was, ‘Coach Mitchell,’ ” Mills said. As in Andrew Mitchell, who was coaching girls hoops just down the road at Salisbury. That was back on May 11. It took almost a month of persistence but North got its man. Mitchell, a 1984 graduate of North Rowan, was officially introduced as the new boys coach on Wednesday. Mitchell has been at Salisbury for the past two years and has two state championships under his belt. He told the Hornets of the decision Wednesday before heading over to North to meet his new team for the first time. “It was the toughest thing I’ve ever had to do in my life,” Mitchell said. “I told them there was nothing they did or didn’t do. It was nothing Salisbury did. It was just a good time for me to make a transition over to boys basketball.” Everhart, also a North graduate, didn’t leave the cupboard bare. There is a heavy dose of talent returning from a 20-6 season that included a Yadkin Valley Conference regular-season title in the Cavs’ first year of 1A athletics. Mitchell said there would be no pressure coming back to his alma mater. “I’m not looking at it as they owe me something or I owe them something,” he said. “My job is to come in and do the best job I can for these young men.” Principal Darrell McDowell said Mitchell was chosen among about 40 applicants. But there was really only one name to concentrate on.

Ben Roethlisberger works out on Wednesday.

Video: Accuser feared Steeler QB’s temper BY PAUL NEWBERRY Associated Press

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. — A Georgia college student said she felt powerless to stop a short-tempered Ben Roethlisberger from having sex with her in a bar bathroom even though she told him to stop, telling investigators: “I’m a little girl and he’s a big boy.” Her interviews with police were among more than 50 audio and video clips released Wednesday from the investigation into Roethlisberger’s late-night carousing in a Georgia college town, a sordid incident that didn’t result in criminal charges but reinforced his reputation for petulant behavior and earned him an NFL suspension. The DVDs offered the first extensive account by the accuser, who hasn’t spoken publicly, as well as less than a minute of shaky Roethlisberger footage

from the club. With loud music blaring, the Pittsburgh Steelers star asks a girl what her drink tastes like, doles out high-fives, strikes a pose, punches his fist in the air twice and flashes a huge grin for the camera. Before the night was done, he was accused of sexually assaulting the 20year-old woman, who said she didn’t try to fight him off because he appeared to anger easily. “I noticed throughout the night he kind of had like a short temper, like he would get really, like, defensive,” she told investigators, but didn’t elaborate on what made her think that. The local prosecutor determined there wasn’t enough evidence to warrant criminal charges, and he said the woman ultimately asked him not to prosecute the quarterback.

Lyerly were high school rivals, Rowan County American Legion teammates and teammates for a second LYERLY time at Catawba after Moore transferred from N.C. State following his junior year. Lyerly was a good high school player, reaching the East varsity as a freshman. He was 13-12 as a pitcher and blossomed slowly as a hitter. He didn’t bat over .300 until his senior year and

hit only three career homers for the Mustangs. But he developed into a four-year terror at Catawba. He has scored six runs in a game, stolen five bases in a game and tripled twice in the same game. Lyerly’s wheels made him the school record-holder for hits in a season (106) and for triples (17) and steals (96) in a career. Moore was a phenom right from the start in high school. He rolled for 4,256 yards and 54 touchdowns in three varsity football seasons. Prior to the arrival of

Media darling Stras-mania overload following 14-K debut BY JOSEPH WHITE Associated Press

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Stephen Strasburg struck out 14 in his debut with the Nationals.

WASHINGTON — The baseball world rubbed its eyes Wednesday morning, shook its head and thought: “Did that really happen?” Restaurants in the nation’s capital started renaming menu items after a certain young pitcher, including one place that is now serving a “Strasburger” with 14 pickles — one for each strikeout. In Cleveland, where the sequel plays on Sunday, the box office had a run on tickets — 3,000 sold in less than 24 hours. And, yes — no foolin’ — the topic was even raised on the floor of the U.S. Sen-

ate. Major-league baseball has an overnight sensation. His name is Stephen Strasburg. “We can only hope and pray that his arm holds up,” Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said during an exchange with Democrat Harry Reid of Nevada, “and that he has the kind of career that everyone is anticipating. There was literally electricity in the air. It was an exciting event, and it was great to be there.” “Really, for Washington — which has been so starved for a good athletic team of some kind — it was nice,” Reid responded.

JON C. LAKEY/SALISBURY POST

Andrew Mitchell celebrates another state playoff victory with the Salisbury girls.

NORTH FROM 1C

“I think we have the absolute best coach for this position that we could’ve picked,” said McDowell, a former coach who has won state championships at his alma mater, West Henderson. “We didn’t have to take anything second.” McDowell and Mills said that Mitchell was on on the lips of practically everyone once the job opened up. “I heard a lot of the commentary with regards to the ‘People’s Choice,’ ” McDowell said. “If they had gotten to vote, he’d have gotten it anyway.” The community reached out to Mitchell. “I was excited,” he said. “You feel good when people appreciate you. But it was tough thinking we could win three straight state championships (at Salisbury). I didn’t think I was going to make this move when it first came out. Even knowing it was a possibility, I didn’t feel I’d leave Salisbury because it was a great situation all the way around.” But Mitchell realized he was in another good situation when he saw his players gather in the auditorium. There were rising sophomores Oshon West, who averaged 12 points last season, and 6-foot-6 dunking machine Malik Ford, who can only get better. He’ll have junior

Pierre Givens, who averaged eight points, and senior Sam Starks (7.8 ppg), a whirling dervish who can hit the three and take it to the basket for the dunk. And of course, leading scorer Javon Hargrave will return for his senior season. The 6-2 stud led the Cavs with a 12.8 average. “I like it a lot,” Starks said of Mitchell’s hiring. “I think it’s going to be really fun. He’s a smart coach. A lot of people are going to step up.” Mitchell is as excited as Starks. “They’re loaded with talent,” he said of his new team. “They’re fast. They can run. Mr. McDowell talked about all of the championships in middle school. The potential is unlimited.” Mitchell will start bonding with his team Monday. The Cavs will attend the Winthrop camp next Friday and the Catawba camp. “We’re going to keep them busy the whole month of June,” Mitchell said. “I think we’ll have a good year,” Starks said. McDowell feels good years will be a tradition because of Mitchell. “He’s the future for us, as far as I’m concerned,” McDowell said. • NOTES: Bill Kesler will remain an assistant coach. Tim Bates will also help out. ... Mitchell said of Everhart, “I think Kelly did a great job. We’ll be similar in attitude and what we think.”

ROETHLISBERGER FROM 1C

The accuser was interviewed twice by police — the first time shortly after she made the accusation early March 5, and a second time about 12 hours later at the police station. The woman sounded intoxicated when she spoke with Milledgeville officer Jason Lopez in the first interview. Her words were slurred and she even says at one point, “Obviously, I’m drunk.” An audio recording of that interview was made. During the first interview, she said she repeatedly told Roethlisberger, “I really don’t think this is OK,” but couldn’t stop him from having sex with her. “I don’t know what I can ... do,” she said. “I’m a little girl and he’s a big boy.” The accuser told police she is 5-foot-4 and weighs 145 pounds. Roethlisberger is listed at 6-5 and 241 pounds. Lopez asked the woman if she knew why Roethlisberger would feel “it was OK to do this to you.”

While the accuser acknowledged wearing an explicit name tag, which was left over from a friend’s birthday party earlier in the night, she denied leading him on. “I wasn’t forward in any way,” she said. “I wasn’t like, ’Oh my gosh, have sex with me because you’re an NFL superstar.’ ” The next afternoon, the woman went to the police station for a follow-up interview that was videotaped. She was calm and matter-of-fact when discussing the previous night, struggling to remember a few details but adamant that she had been assaulted by Roethlisberger. She said he first exposed himself to her in a hallway, then followed her into the bathroom. In the video, the woman’s face was blurred. She was wearing a navy blue T-shirt and jeans had her blonde hair pulled back. She told police she didn’t think trying to fight Roethlisberger would stop the assault. “I figured it wouldn’t help anything,” she said. “I didn’t want, obviously, him to hurt me any more than he was going to.” The videos are the most extensive account yet by the accuser.

WADE MOORE at Florence and Forest City in the Coastal Plain League; Lyerly at Morganton in the Southern Collegiate Baseball League and Asheboro of the CPL. Neither player was surprised to be chosen by the team that took them. Moore had gone through many pre-draft workouts for scouts, and the Nationals were one of six teams that had given him positive feedback. The Rays had worked out Lyerly recently at Catawba. “The Rays were definitely the team showing the most interest,” Lyerly said. Both expect to sign quickly. When you’re a college senior picked on the 19th round, money’s not much of an issue. It’s all about opportunity at this point. Because of his years in the ACC and because he’ll be playing a familiar position, Moore may start his pro career a level higher than Lyerly. Lyerly’s probable destination is advanced rookie ball with the Princeton (W. Va.) Rays of the Appalachian League, while Moore hopes to be plaeced on the roster of the Vermont Lake Monsters of the short-season New York-Penn League. “A lot of local people have given me great support, and Newman Park will always be dear to my heart,” Moore said. “I just feel blessed right now to have a chance.”

Cody Laws was the second of six Rowan Legion pitchers who faced Lexington on Wednesday night. He was the only pitcher not to give up any runs.

ROWAN FROM 6C

ters in the order went a combined 6-for-14 with nine runs and five RBIs to accompany Burkhart’s four runs driven in. “We just did a lot of little things that really hurt us tonight, dropping a flyball, errors, hitting batters, little things like that just kill you,” Gantt said. Rowan third baseman Noah Holmes, an East star making his first Legion appearance of the season, went 3-for-4 and came up a double shy of the cycle. He had a solo homer and a rare triple. “He threw me one inside, and I was able to get the barrel of the bat out on it and drove it down the line,” Holmes said. “Coach Gantt kept waiving me, so I kept

going.” Rowan had a strong scoring opportunity in the bottom of the seventh inning with the bases loaded and Zach Smith at the plate. Smith was jammed by a good pitch from Burkhart and popped out to end the inning. Rowan left 12 runners stranded over the eight innings of play. “We just have got to hit it, pitch it and field it better like we know we are capable of, and we will get things straightened out,” Holmes said. Rowan has lost five consecutive games, and there’s no rest for the weary. Rowan is right back in action tonight at Newman Park to face second-place Mooresville (10-2, 8-1). “Hopefully we can play a lot better tomorrow night against Mooresville and get back to winning,” Gantt said.

Bearden and pinch-runner Tripp Cross came in thanks to another throwing error with one away. Statesville’s third error of the inning enabled Matt Miller, the winning pitcher, to cross home for a 14-9 lead with two out. Freeze and Houston scored on a pair of wild pitches. “We’ve been putting it in play and pretty much getting it done with the bat, but we have to work on some stuff fundamentally,” Hogan said. Statesville (0-7, 0-6) scored two runs (one earned) against Miller in the top of the ninth and left two men on base when right fielder Maverick Miles, a High Point signee whom the San Francisco Giants considered drafting earlier in the day, made a diving catch to end the game.

He was the man of this game.” Kannapolis had a great chance to make someone other than Webb the man in the fourth. That’s the inning Mocksville had defensive issues. Wes Honeycutt opened the inning with a solid single for Kannapolis’ first hit. After two errors, a passed ball and a walk, one run had crossed and the bases were loaded with none out.

tie with a two-run triple in the sixth inning, accounted for one of South’s 11 hits. Houston went 4-for-6 with four runs scored, and Zubillaga scored three times despite going 0-for-2. Hogan had two hits, two runs and four RBIs as South improved to 4-0 during a six-day stretch in which it allowed double-digit runs three times. “We didn’t play good, but we got the win and we’re still in first,” Houston said. “We have to get better at practice (Thursday) and hopefully come off our break and keep winning.”

It was the pivotal moment in a mostly quiet game, and Webb did what he had to do. He got three good hitters in a row — John Wallace, Bridges and Tuttle — to hit infield popups. “It was like the fifth BRIDGES time I’ve faced him, but D.J. is good at keeping you off-balance,” Bridges explained. “The first two times through our lineup, he was pitching backwards. The third time through, he started getting ahead of everyone with fast- HONEYCUTT balls. He’s smart, always mixing it up.” Tuttle pitched well enough to win a lot of nights. Webb was even better. “Tuttle really did throw a great game for us,” Bridges said. “We just didn’t back him up very well. We had fielding errors and mental errors.”

STRASBURG

Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — There was no red Blackhawks 4 light, just Flyers 3 Blackhawks flying over the boards in celebration. Sticks and helmets were thrown, scattered all over the ice and still no signal for a goal. After a brief review, there was no dispute — the Chicago Blackhawks were the Stanley Cup champions. Patrick Kane sneaked the puck past Michael Leighton 4:10 into overtime and stunned Philadelphia to lift the Blackhawks to a 4-3 overtime win in Game 6 on Wednesday night for their first championship since 1961. No one but the Blackhawks appeared to know what was going on for a few frozen moments. Kane and his linemates seemed the only players on the ice who knew the puck found the side of the net. The goal light never went on, but that didn’t stop most of the Blackhawks from storming the ice and mobbing each other in celebration. The review was a short one and Kane will go down as scoring one of the biggest winners in team history. “I was just hoping to God it was just an actual goal,” said captain Jonathan Toews, the Conn Smythe Trophy winner as playoff MVP. “They came back hard in the third and we just stuck with it.” Kane raised his arms right away and skated behind the net, knowing the goal was good. While the Flyers sat on the bench in stunned silence with confused looks, the Blackhawks began to celebrate in their own end around

goaltender Annti Niemi. “I knew it went in right away,” Kane said. “What a feeling. I can’t believe it. We just won the Stanley Cup. I can’t believe this just happened. ... It’s something you dream about, scoring the final goal in the Stanley Cup finals.” Before reaching the group hug, Kane stooped to pick up some loose ice shavings — looking like a mischievous kid on Christmas ready to throw a snowball in the backyard. “There’s so many great things about winning a Stanley Cup. This is it,” Toews said. “This is the best feeling you can ever get. I just can’t believe it’s happened.” Toews was first to touch the Cup, taking it from commissioner Gary Bettman and hoisting it above his head in triumph. Marian Hossa, whose last two attempts at a title were denied the last two years with Detroit and Pittsburgh, was next. He lifted it and bench-pressed the big trophy, snapping his head back in exhilaration. The Blackhawks completed their revival from the bottom of the NHL to holding the silver trophy on the strength of rising stars Kane and Toews. Niemi was solid in goal to help the Blackhawks wrap up their most successful season since Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita led the way 49 years ago. It ends the longest active championship drought in the NHL. Kane is the first player to score the Stanley Cup clinching goal in overtime since Jason Arnott did it for New Jersey at Dallas exactly 10 years ago. The Flyers are still looking for their first Stanley Cup title since 1975.

Montimer, who was indicted Monday, played basketball last year at Odessa Permian High School. Montimer led the Panthers to the first round of the playoffs last season and was named the District 2-5A Newcomer of the Year. That honor was stripped in recent weeks.

South enters break with victory BY BRET STRELOW

LANDIS — South Rowan’s American Legion S. Rowan 16 team enters a Statesville 11 six-day break with an unbeaten division record and room to improve. South remained in first place thanks to a 16-11 home victory against winless Statesville on Wednesday night. Head coach Michael Lowman’s team, which has outscored its opponents 68-40 in the

last four games, returns to action next Wednesday against Mint Hill. “It’s working right now, but it’s going to run out,” Lowman said. “You’re not going to score 14, 19, 20 runs every night. The hitting’s going to run out. When that happens, we have to be able to pitch it better and have to be able to catch it better. We’re going to have to find other ways to win other than outscoring everybody.” A two-run homer from cleanup hitter Gunnar Hogan gave South (10-1, 6-0) a first-inning lead

to the plate in an eight-run bottom of the eighth. “It was a wakeup for us, and we started getting some life in the dugout,” Hogan said. “I think that really helped us.” The outburst started with a Blake Houston single, and Julio Zubillaga bunted back to reliever Sean Grant. HOGAN HOUSTON Houston was safe at second after the ruling that a relatively high throw against Statesville, which pulled pulled a Statesville infielder’s foot ahead for the first time with a off the bag. three-run top of the eighth.

Houston beat Johnson’s throw and slid between catcher Travis Fetter’s legs to tie the game. “I thought I might could beat it,” Houston said. “I got a good read and got a good jump off it. I got through his legs, I guess, and got there.” Zubillaga scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error following Patrick Bearden’s grounder to short, and Joseph Basinger’s infield single drove in Hogan.

UGLY LOSS

Kannapolis has no answer for pitcher Webb BY MIKE LONDON

mlondon@salisburypost.com

MOCKSVILLE — Kannapolis Mocksville 6 pitcher Kannapolis 3 John J. Tuttle and Mocksville hurler D.J. Webb shook hands for the first time and chatted amiably as a glum Kannapolis team exited Rich Park. John J. and D.J. will be t e a m mates at Catawba next year, and they provided a riveting WEBB mound matchup on Wednesday night. Mocksville prevailed 6-3 to slip past Kannapolis (5-7, 4-5) in the standings. Webb, an in-andout righthander who relies on his curveball, TUTTLE poise and perfect location on both corners to frustrate hitters, drove Kannapolis crazy and tossed his second straight complete game. He baffled Concord on Friday. Webb was the underdog in a matchup with Tuttle, who owns an 87 mph fastball and a sharp slider, but every dog has his day. “I was just trying my hardest not to lose,” Webb said. “I’ll try to go nine every single time I got out there, and tonight I did it. Tuttle did a very good job, but I just had a very good team behind me tonight.” Mocksville coach Charles Kurfees nearly fainted in the bottom of the first when his team got on the board right away. Mocksville (7-6, 5-5) had been shut out twice in a row, and when Kurfees saw Tuttle’s name on the lineup card, he knew there was a chance his guys would be blanked again. But Jess Cartner and Tyler King stroked firstinning doubles — both fell just out of reach — and Mocksville grabbed a 3-0 lead. Kannapolis played catchup unsuccessfully the rest of the night. The three guys on Kannapolis’ bench who knew how tough Webb was going to be despite his unintimidating stature were first baseman Kyle Bridges, who plays at Carson, and coaches Matt Stack and Hut Smith. Stack and Smith helped

Zach Smith sticks his tongue out as he rounds the bases for Rowan.

A beautiful night for baseball at NewLexington 17 man Park Rowan 7 produced an ugly game for Rowan County. Rowan was at full force for the first time this year, but Lexington didn’t get that memo or didn’t care as it ripped Rowan 17-7 in eight innings Wednesday. Lexington struck big, scoring five runs in the fifth inning, four in the sixth and seven in the eighth. Rowan coach Jim Gantt couldn’t seem to find a pitcher who could record outs after starter Zack Simpson was pulled in the fifth. “It happens sometimes,” Gantt said. “You can try a hundred different pitchers and sometimes it doesn’t work out. If you hit guys and walk them like we did tonight, you can’t defend that.” Rowan’s bright spots on the mound were turned in by Cody Laws, who retired the only two batters he faced, and Thomas Allen. He struck out five batters (four went down looking) over 12⁄3 innings. A tireless effort was given by Lexington’s Kelly Secrest, who threw 137 pitches in 61⁄3 innings.

JON C. LAKEY/SALISBURY POST

Hayden Untz knocked in two runs for Rowan. “I went out and talked to Kelly, and he said no way was he coming out until he was completely spent,” Lexington head coach Chris Sotriffer said. Rowan (5-6, 2-4) hurt itself with the three errors, two hit batsmen and seven walks. The dagger was delivered by Lexington right fielder Zach Burkhart when he took a 1-2 fastball from Matt Miller over the right-field wall for a grand slam in the top of the eighth inning.

‘Belle Figure’ exhibit On Saturday, June 12, the Green Goat Gallery will host an opening reception for an exhibit of figure drawings and paintings entitled “Belle Figure.” Featuring works by Robert Crum, Rachel Lee, Don Moore, Donnie Moose, Betty Bonner Steele, Phyllis Steimel, and John Witalison, the exhibit is inspired by the late Lou Murphy, with whom all the artists studied and painted. Featuring oil and acrylic paintings, and charcoal, conte’ crayon, and pastel drawings, the exhibit showcases six or more large, framed pieces by each artist and about a dozen unframed pieces. “We wanted to offer a wide range of prices to attract both experienced and budding collectors,” says Anne Waters. “There are fantastic works under $100 and up to $1000.” The opening coincides with the Second Saturday Art Gallery and Studio Crawl. The reception is from 6-8 p.m. in the evening and the public is invited.

Lamanno exhibit Photographs by David Lamanno will be on display in the Center for Faith & the Arts

Gallery during the Second Saturday Art Crawl and for the next four weeks. The exhibit will include Lamanno’s “Regional Ruins” series as well as other subjects.

Mary Ann McCubbin and Jennifer Hubbard share a scene in ‘The Rabbit Hole, opening June 16.

t. Thomas Players presents the Pulitzer Prizewinning play “Rabbit Hole,” June 16-19 and June 2326 in the Florence Busby Corriher Theatre on the campus of Catawba College in Salisbury. Admission is $10 in advance and $12 at the door. Advance tickets are available at Literary Book Post, 110 S. Main St. Special rates are available for groups of 10 or more by calling 704-647-0999 or emailing faithart@bellsouth.net. June 23 is “Buy One Get One Free” night at the door only. The show is directed by Claudia Galup, artistic director of St. Thomas Players since

2008, and a part of the troupe since its inception in 1996. “What attracted me first to ‘Rabbit Hole’ was the dialogue,” Galup says. “It is so spare and real — no extra exposition, no sentimentality. All the words are important. It is, of course, a sad play about a couple’s struggle to return to life and to each other after the death of a child. But, Galup emphasizes, the play is not about a dying child. “It’s about the family and how they’re coping to repair the damage to their relationships done by the tragedy. “But David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted it so that it does

not manipulate our emotions. In fact, in his notes, he INSISTS that we not add tears where none are called for. He has given us wonderful humor to tell us truths and to carry us through. There’s plenty to laugh at.” “The beauty of this play, to me, is how real it is,” Galup says. “It’s one of the best-written plays I’ve read in a long time.” It will also strike a chord with anyone who has suffered loss and experienced grief, Galup says.

The cast features Jennifer Hubbard, Preston Mitchell, Sarah Drinkard, Mary Ann McCubbin and Chris Speer. The play’s author, David Lindsay-Abaire, was born into a blue-collar Boston family in 1970. He had little exposure to drama and other arts until he was in 7th grade when he won a scholarship to a private school. He found that he enjoyed being on stage, and was already writing scripts in 10th grade. He attended Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, N.Y., where he performed in plays and continued to write. It’s there that he met and later married actress Christine Lindsay (hence the hyphenated name). In his mid-20s he won a playwriting competition in South Carolina and enrolled in the prestigious Lila Acheson Wallace American Playwrights Program at Juilliard in New York City where he studied with Marsha Norman and Christopher Durang and wrote his first commercially successful play, .

woman with a form of amnesia that erases her memory every night as she sleeps. His next two plays, staged in 2000 were Wonder of the World, about a runaway wife, and Kimberly Akimbo, about a 16-year-old girl with progeria which causes her to age four times faster than average. His earlier plays had created expectations that his work was always comic and absurd, so when Rabbit Hole premiered at South Coast Repertory Theatre in Costa Mesa, Calif. In 2005, it appeared to be a radical departure from Lindsay-Abaire’s usually surreal material to more realistic characters. His “Rabbit Hole,” produced in 2006 in New York with Cynthia Nixon, Tyne Daly, and John Slattery was nominated for several Tony Awards including Best Play, and Cynthia Nixon won a Tony as Best Actress Rabbit Hole won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for drama. Lindsay-Abaire has now branched out into yet another territory, musical theatre, with musical adaptations of High Fidelity and Shrek. In 2008 he was awarded the 2008 Ed Kleban Award as America’s most promising musical theatre lyricist. St. Thomas Players is the drama troupe of Center for Faith & the Arts.
