Main Street Wetumpka Executive Director Jenny Stubbs said the organization’s new location affords them more space for storage and meetings and more centralized location in the downtown area.
Building organization, and we were successful in doing so,” Stubbs said. “The fact that we outgrew our (old) space shows progress.” Aside from the old calaboose near the Coosa River, Stubbs said the building they moved into is the oldest downtown property. Initially, Stubbs said they believe the building was a one-story, standalone building that was later added onto over the years. “The property owners have a copy of the deed from the federal government, signed by Andrew Jackson, to William Lowndes Yancey, who was a colorful Civil War leader and orator,” Stubbs said. Stubbs said the new location will allow the nonprofit to further promote their newly-established branding, hold meetings onsite and store project materials. Stubbs said the new location is also expected to strengthen Main Street’s Wetumpka’s connection with the

We wanted to fill a storefront, which is something we’re encouraging others to do,” Stubbs said. “We wanted to be an example, but we also wanted to have our own space.” The new location is situated across the street from Main Street Wetumpka’s alley mural, which Stubbs said is the organization’s largest cultivation project to date. “We hadn’t planned for that to happen, but we’re glad it worked out that way,” Stubbs said. Before moving, Main Street Wetumpka was located in an office space on Hill Street, which they leased from the Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce. “We enjoyed our incubator space at the chamber, and enjoyed supporting it as one of its first tenants in the renovated building,” Stubbs said.

was originally started by Main Street Wetumpka about a year and a half ago. Because Merchants Alley is one of the first parts of downtown people see as they drive across the Bibb Graves Bridge, Main Street Wetumpka Executive Director Stubbs said it’s important that the area is aesthetically pleasing. “Anything that enhances the downtown experience is something we want to encourage,” Stubbs said. She said the addition of the statue garden simultaneously improved the appearance of Merchants Alley while getting local artists and business owners involved in the development of the downtown area.
“Downtown Wetumpka is finding that part of its identity has a lot to do with art,” Stubbs said. “Art does a lot to invoke thought and emotion and it’s nice to look at all these beautiful things.” In the future, Stubbs said she hopes to add the statue garden to Main Street Wetumpka’s annual Tulatoma Art Trail event. Drinkard said the statue garden was a collaborative effort between him, his wife, Tucker, Wetumpka Mayor Jerry Willis, Beth Forrester, and Tucker Robinson.

Frank Johnson: The Legend and the Free State of Winston
T
hose of us who are baby boomers remember the tumultuous times of the 1960s. We lived through the Civil Rights revolution. Those of us who grew up here in the Heart of Dixie witnessed the transpiring of racial integration first hand. Most of the crusades and struggles occurred here in Alabama, especially Montgomery. A good many of the landmark Civil Rights court decisions were handed down in the federal court in Montgomery. The author and renderer of these epic rulings was one, Frank M. Johnson, Jr. He served as federal judge in the Middle District of Alabama for 24 years from 1955 through 1979. Johnson’s judicial decisions brought death threats to him and his family from whites opposed to integration. He was vilified by most white Alabamians at that time and became George Wallace’s favorite whipping boy. Wallace referred to him as a “lying, scalawagging, carpetbagging integrationist.” Frank Johnson, Jr. was born in Winston County in October 1918. Winston County attempted to stay neutral during the Civil War. It was a Republican stronghold in an overwhelmingly Democratic Alabama. In contrast to the Black Belt planters in South Alabama, the people who settled North Alabama were small farmers. The land they settled on was hilly and not as conducive to growing cotton. Rather than large plantations and slaves, the fiercely independent hill country farmers had 40 acres and a mule. Therefore, when the winds of division between North and South began to blow in the 1850s, an obvious political difference between North and South Alabamians arose. In 1860 there were only 14 slave owners in Winston County.
STEVE FLOWERS Columnist With the election of Abraham Lincoln, the crucial decision of secession arose. Contrary to what most present-day Alabamians think, it was not an easy unified decision that we should leave the Union. A secession convention was held in January 1861, in Montgomery. The vote was extremely close. The delegates split 54-46 for secession. The Black Belters from South Alabama were for creating a confederacy of southern states to protect their slave ownership and way of life. The hill farmers from North Alabama preferred to not secede. These North Alabamians voted against secession from the Union at that time. Shortly after the secession convention, citizens of Winston County met at a local establishment, Looney’s Tavern. These yeoman farmers of the hills were obviously reluctant to leave the Union for the cause of the planter and his slaves. Legend has it that on July 4, 1861, the good people of Winston County decided to secede from Alabama and remain in the Union. That is why they are known in Alabama political history and folklore as “The Free State of Winston.” That same sort of independent streak was a hallmark of the Johnson family who were some of the earliest settlers of Winston County. Judge Johnson’s father served as one of the few Republicans in the Alabama Legislature in the first half of the 20th century. Frank Johnson Jr. studied law at the University of Alabama and graduated at the top of his law school class in 1943. He
then distinguished himself as a U.S. Army officer in World War II. He was wounded at Normandy and received the Purple Heart. After the war, he settled in Winston County and began practicing law in Jasper. Although the Democratic Party dominated southern politics, Johnson was a lifelong, Winston County Republican. Therefore, he led the 1952 Dwight Eisenhower campaign for President in the state. After Eisenhower became president, he rewarded Johnson with a federal judgeship. In 1955-1956, shortly after taking his seat on the bench, Johnson became involved in a formative event of the Civil Rights movement. Rosa Parks was arrested for violating a Montgomery ordinance requiring racial segregation on the city buses. In response, the African American community organized a boycott of the bus system and nominated Reverend Martin Luther King as its leader. Johnson ruled that the Montgomery ordinance violated the due process clause of the 14th Amendment. The ruling was the first of many by Johnson which eliminated racial segregation in public accommodations such as parks, libraries, bus stations and airports during the 1950s and 1960s. Johnson’s decisions were legendary and groundbreaking. He became the central defender of Civil Rights in America from his federal bench in Montgomery. The Federal Courthouse in Montgomery is now named in his honor. Judge Johnson died in 1999. See you next week. Steve Flowers is Alabama’s leading political columnist.

Letter to the Editor
Did some miss question on ballot, or just ignore it? Dear Editor, There were a total of 15,083 voters participating in the recent primary election in Elmore County. Voters had the opportunity to vote repeal the Limited Self Governance Act. This was in the form of a “yes” or “no” question. The question was worded in such a way that a vote of “no” meant to retain the act, and a vote of “yes” meant to repeal it. There
were 2927 “yes” votes and 2587 “no” votes for a total of 5514 votes. Obviously, only a fraction of voters voted on this issue at all. Why did so few people vote on the issue? The question was on the reverse side of the Republican ballot. Perhaps some Republican voters were unaware that voting continued on the reverse side, although the ballot was clearly marked as such. The
question was on the front side of the Democratic ballot. Possible reasons for so few votes on this issue are that some Republicans were unaware of the existence of the question on the ballot, perhaps some people did not understand the question and chose to ignore it, and perhaps some voters had no opinion at all.

Community business leaders had the chance to meet a nationallyrecognized entrepreneur during the Millbrook Area Chamber of Commerce’s Women in Business luncheon last week. DeeDee Nolan shared the story of how she went from being the child of a dysfunctional family to the founder of a Nolan Research, a marketing research company. Nolan said her mother had an addiction to prescription drugs, while her father suffered from alcoholism. As a teenager, Nolan said she was taken from her family and sent to live with a mentor. After graduating high school, Nolan said she felt pressured by her uncle to attend the University of Alabama and follow in his footsteps as an orthodontist. “It lasted six weeks. I just couldn’t do it,” Nolan said. Once she returned to her home in Montgomery, Nolan said she began working asfa special education teacher, met and married her husband. After having her first child, Nolan said she wanted to stay home with him. She went back to work briefly, and then became a freelance

interviewer before she started Nolan Research in Montgomery. In addition to having three children of their own, Nolan said she and her husband became foster parents. “As they were growing up, my company kept growing,” Nolan said. Nolan said her business continued to grow, before and during her battle with cancer. Nolan, who was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, was one of the first patient with her type of cancer to survive. While she was cured with the help of an experimental drug, Nolan said she suffered
severe allergic reactions and side effects. While receiving treatment, Nolan said she became angry with God. “I had a knock-down, drag-out with God. They thought I was talking to an invisible person, or had just gone crazy,” Nolan said. While conducting business, Nolan said she began to miss her work with special needs children, and decided to hire a person with Down’s syndrome. She said hiring that employee was one of her best business decisions. In 2006, Nolan was listed as one of “Newsweek’s” Unsung

Elmore County career coach selected for national award By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief
An Elmore County Public Schools employee recently received national recognition for her work with career technical education. Career coach Lindsay Jordan was announced as a finalist for the Association for Career and Technical Education’s 2019 Career Guidance Award. Jordan was selected from nominees throughout the United States and is currently one of five contenders from different regions. When she was first notified, Jordan said the news came as a shock. Jordan said she hopes to use her achievement to emphasize the importance of providing access to technical education. “I hope every time something great happens in career tech, we have the opportunity to make a big deal about it,” Jordan said. “It’s less about me and more about the chance to talk about career tech.” Throughout her career in Elmore County, Jordan said she has seen many successes from the students at the Elmore County Technical Center. “A lot of it boils down to (the fact that) students are exploring what they may want to do one day,” Jordan said. While she does not expect to win the award, Jordan said she has noted the accomplishments of the finalists from other regions and feels honored to be listed among them. “It’s an honor to be selected.

REGION CHAMPIONS AGAIN Indians prep for regular season finale
By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

Wetumpka has won back-to-back region titles for the first time in school history.
Wetumpka grabs second consecutive region title By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer
Wetumpka was not in control of its own destiny entering the final week of region play. However, with a little help from Opelika, Wetumpka was crowned as the Class 6A Region 3 champions for the second consecutive season. It is the first time in school history Wetumpka has won back-to-back region titles. Coach Tim Perry said the team knew what was at stake and because Wetumpka’s game against Selma went long, it already knew Opelika had done its job. “We celebrated it Friday night,” Perry said. “It’s been a long time since Wetumpka has won back-to-back region
championships so that’s a great accomplishment for this team.” After Wetumpka’s victory over Selma, there were three teams tied on top of Class 6A Region 3. The teams have to work through several tiebreakers before determining who sits on top of the standings. This region came down to the team’s performance in non-region play. Opelika and Stanhope Elmore both struggled against teams outside of the region while Wetumpka already has four wins over non-region opponents. In the AHSAA football handbook, “tiebreaking procedure n” states “the team whose defeated opponents have the most See CHAMPS • Page A9
After wrapping up its second consecutive region title Friday night, Wetumpka’s focus is turning toward the postseason preparation. That preparation begins this week with a trip to Muscle Shoals to face a strong non-region opponent. Wetumpka coach Tim Perry said the Indians will approach this week just like any other week but they will not be risking their health with the postseason looming. However, Wetumpka (8-1) has a bye week before the playoffs begin so there should plenty of time for players to get healthy before the chance at another postseason run. “We’re going to play it just like every other game,” Perry said. “They’re a very good team and we know it’s going to take a great effort. That’s why we made the decision to not have a game in the 10th week so we can rest guys during that open week before we prepare for the playoffs.” Wetumpka is currently 4-1 in games away from Hohenberg Field this season but Friday’s trip to Muscle Shoals will be the longest of the season. Perry said he hopes this game can give the team confidence on the road just in case Wetumpka will need to play away from home during the postseason. “This experience should get us prepared if we do have to travel in the playoffs,” Perry said. “Playing a team of the caliber of Muscle Shoals will hopefully get us prepared for other quality teams we could face in the playoffs.” Muscle Shoals (7-2) enters Friday night on a five-game winning streak, fresh off a victory over Athens to clinch the No. 2 seed in Class 6A Region 7. The Trojans have just one loss to an in-state opponent this season,

falling 15-14 to No. 5 Hartselle in the fourth week of the season. In last week’s win over Athens, Jacob Bishop and Keevon Hankins led the Trojan offense to a big night. Bishop threw for 175 yards and two touchdowns on just 11 pass attempts while Hankins rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Muscle Shoals racked up 424 yards of offense against an Athens defense which had allowed only 19 points in its previous four games. “They want to run the ball but their play action passing is very effective,” Perry said. “Their quarterback does a great job running the offense and you can tell he has a great understanding of the game.” On the defensive side of the ball, Muscle Shoals has allowed just 13.3 points per game. The Trojans are led by leading tackler
Wetumpka stuns SEHS to win area tournament
By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer
After finishing 1-3 in area play during the regular season, Wetumpka found itself playing its best volleyball of the season at the perfect time. Wetumpka knocked off Selma and Stanhope Elmore en route to its second consecutive area tournament title. “We had some ups and downs this year and had to deal with some injuries,” Wetumpka coach Margo Thomas said. “Fortunately, it all came together. We had senior leadership and we had freshman leadership. We had every class on the court working together.” In the first match of the night, Wetumpka defeated Selma 25-16, 25-17, 25-18. The Indians pulled off the straight set victory behind strong service from Shannon McKee and Avery Jones. The two combined for 19 aces in the win. Wetumpka used the momentum from the win over Selma and carried it into a quick start in the championship match. Yennifer Gomez got a kill on the first point of the match and the Indians did not relinquish the lead for the entire first set. Stanhope couldn’t ever put a run together as Wetumpka finished off the set, winning See VOLLEYBALL • Page A10
It did not take long for Stanhope Elmore’s hopes of a Class 6A Region 3 title to end during last week’s game at Opelika. Now, despite all the success in region play, the Mustangs will be the third seed and hit the road for the first round of the playoffs. Stanhope will take this week off as they look to rebound before preparing for postseason play. “We played our absolute worst game

In the last three weeks, Wetumpka has seen at least one aspect of its game not live up to its standards. After losing at Stanhope Elmore, Wetumpka responded with a defensive struggle against Benjamin Russell before getting into an offensive slugfest with Selma last week. “We just want to see improvements in all areas,” Perry said. “We don’t feel like we’ve played four complete quarters yet. We did some things better last week against Selma and we’re proud of our team for that but there are still some areas we can improve on.”
of the year,” Stanhope coach Brian Bradford said. “Everything that could go wrong went wrong. We made a lot of mental mistakes and shot ourselves in the foot. So being able to sit back and catch our breath will be good for us.” Stanhope (5-4, 4-1) will play Class 5A No. 6 Greenville next Thursday in its regular season finale. Before the Mustangs get ready for Greenville, Bradford said they will look to focus on getting back to the simple things on the practice field.
“We just want a chance to slow down and get back to work on fundamentals,” Bradford said. “We get to work on ourselves and not having to spend time on game plan.” Bradford said this bye week is coming at the right time, giving the Mustangs an opportunity to regroup. Stanhope already knows where it sits in its own region standings but its playoff opponent is still unknown. The Mustangs will get a chance to scout its playoff opponent the See MUSTANGS • Page A8
few high school football games were put on hold two weeks ago, which is not a normal occurrence in the South. It takes something pretty major to cancel or reschedule a ballgame around here. But the disaster of Hurricane Michael wreaked havoc on the Southern part of the state, and it was time to put the ball down for a night and focus on what’s really important. Last Wednesday, the Alabama High School Athletic Association Central Board of Control unanimously approved to give assistance to Cottonwood High School, which suffered significant damage during the storm last week. In photos published by Dothan Eagle, some of Cottonwood’s damage included the visiting bleachers toppling nearly to the ground. It’s great to see the AHSAA reaching out to a school in need during a time like this. With the holiday season right around the corner and an air of unrest surrounding the country, it’s extremely important now more than ever to give back to those in need, regardless of how much you can give or in what way.

Elmore County Player of the Week
Martin helps Holtville take over in home win By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer
Boykin Field was a quiet place to be Friday night when Holtville found itself down by double digits in a game it needed to win to keep its playoff hopes alive. However, things changed early in the second Martin quarter when junior Hunter Martin got involved with a big special teams play. With the Bulldogs trailing 13-3, Martin came around the right side of Talladega’s offensive line to block a punt. The ball bounced all the way inside of the Tigers 5-yard line before Holtville fell on the ball, setting up a touchdown run by Alex Gibbons. “I saw I had empty and I was wide open,” said Martin, who is the Elmore County Player of the Week. “I didn’t really think, I just went. I try to stay level headed.” Holtville scored another touchdown to give itself a 17-13 halftime lead but Martin was just getting started. Talladega got the ball first to start the second half and drove into Bulldog territory. The Tigers faced a fourth down from the 25-yard line and Martin introduced himself to quarterback Nigel Scales for the first time. He chased Scales down 15 yards behind the line of scrimmage for his first sack of the night. “I just think we needed to come together as a team,” Martin said. “We had to do a job and our job was to put pressure on the quarterback. We worked on it all week, it was our focus. And we did it.” After Talladega took the lead in the third quarter, Holtville missed a field goal and needed a defensive stop to get back in the game. Martin added another sack to go along with a quarterback hurry while forcing the Tiger offense into a three and out. The Bulldogs got the ball back and scored on the next drive to take the lead for good. “I try to just do my job and go 100 percent on every play,” Martin said. “In my opinion, that’s how you play. Play with your team and that’s how you get things done. I couldn’t do it by myself, it took all 11 of us out there.” Martin added two more sacks in the fourth quarter as the Bulldogs pulled away. Holtville’s defense held Talladega’s offense to 124 total yards in the game and zero points in the final three quarters. Scales entered the night as one of the region’s top quarterbacks but he completed only a third of his pass attempts and was tackled for a loss seven times. “It’s about preparation,” Martin said. “We prepped for him all week and put our heart and soul into this week. We did a lot of conditioning because we knew it would come down to the fourth quarter. We had to come together as a team.” Martin finished the game with five total tackles, including four sacks, to go along with two quarterback hurries and the blocked punt. Holtville coach Jason Franklin said Martin’s performance was just another way to show the improvement the defensive group has made. “He’s been getting better every week,” Franklin said. “But this isn’t just about one individual player. We’ve miraculously seen a change in our demeanor with our whole group. It’s in the locker room and the guys are playing hard. Everyone is just doing their job. If we put them out there, we expect them to make plays and they’re doing that.”

Bulldogs have playoff fate in the balance By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer
Holtville finished up Class 4A Region 4 play with last week’s win over Talladega. The Bulldogs kept their postseason hopes alive but their fate is now out of their hands as the rest of the region determines the standings. Holtville coach Jason Franklin said the team is in a good
position but he admitted he would rather be on the field in the final week of region play. “You look back now and kick yourself over a couple of ball games that you should have taken care of,” Franklin said. “The worst part is having it in someone else’s hands.” The Bulldogs (5-3) will be checking in on other scores on Friday night as they need Handley to beat
Talladega to get into the postseason. However, Franklin said the team will be playing this week’s game just like it would if the Bulldogs were already in the playoffs. “We don’t know how this is going to play out until after Friday night so you have to keep getting better,” Franklin said. “There’s no need to stop now.

final week of the season but for now, it is about their own improvement. “Right now, it’s still up in there on who we’re going to play so we’re just going to worry about us,” Bradford said. Stanhope has had a roller coaster of a season. The win over then-No. 1 Wetumpka could end up defining the season but losses to Shades Valley and Smiths Station proved to be the difference in winning a region title. The 38-point loss to Opelika could be used as a wake-up call for the Mustangs. “Over the season, we got away from some of the fundamental things that made us good so we just want to get back and really hone those back in before we can get into the run,” Bradford said.

Auburn hosted the 22nd Annual Tiger Classic on Saturday morning where 542 students competed across four different divisions. Wetumpka, Stanhope Elmore and Holtville were all represented at the meet.

Wildcats ready to bounce back as postseason prep begins correct,” Free said. “It’s an opportunity to correct some of those things going into the playoffs. At this point, we’re not reinventing the wheel so we’re looking at what we do and our identity to try to polish it the best we can.” Free said the Wildcats need to be playing their best football at the end of the season to have success over the next two weeks. The Wildcats have found a new outlook to stay focused on improving, taking a note from Alabama coach Nick Saban. “‘You don’t do something until you do it right; you do something until you can’t do it wrong,’” Free said, quoting Saban. “So, we’ve adopted that and that’s the mindset we’ll take this week.” The Wildcats want to get back into the win column but they also understand the importance of preparing for the playoffs. Free said the team’s focus will be on winning Thursday night but he admitted there will be thoughts on keeping players healthy. “It’s business as usual on the practice end but we have a plan in place for Thursday night,” Free said. “We have a plan to try to optimize our chances of keeping people healthy. But you also can’t play this game at half effort because someone will end up getting hurt.”

Edgewood found itself outmatched for the first time this season last week at No. 1 Autauga. However, the Wildcats are looking to get back on the winning track in this week’s regular season finale against Success Unlimited on Thursday night. “We’ll come out and start getting prepared for a good Success team that is very athletic and that just played a very good game against a very good Pike team,” Edgewood coach Darryl Free said. “If we want to get back to be in the best position for success, then we have to get back to work and try to become the best football team we can by Thursday night.” Edgewood (6-3) will be traveling to Montgomery to face Success, which is in its first season as a football program. The Mustangs are 2-7 this season and are currently on a five-game losing streak but Free said their record was no indication of how good they have been this season. “They’ve gotten a lot better throughout the year,” Free said. “They present a big challenge for us to come out and play disciplined football and aggressive football so it should be a good game.”

Edgewood will look to bounce back from last week’s big loss to Autauga.
Last week, Success lost to No. 8 Pike Liberal Arts but held Pike’s strong offense to just seven points. It was the Mustangs best defensive performance of the season but their offense could muster only six points, losing by an extra point. Quarterback Jamari
Smith scored the team’s only touchdown and totaled 232 yards of offense. He has now rushed for 1,141 yards this season. On the defensive side, Smith had four tackles and an interception. Linebacker Ethan Smith led the team with 15
tackles and four sacks. Edgewood is a week away from hosting a postseason game and is hoping to use this week’s game as a way to get back to successful football. “I think it’s a good opportunity for us to correct the things that we need to

Tallassee’s volleyball team celebrated its Senior Night on Thursday against Stanhope Elmore.
Tiger attack too much for Mustangs on Senior Night By GRIFFIN PRITCHARD For The Herald
Having an “off” night against a team feeding off a gym full of hometown folks is never a recipe for success, as the Stanhope Elmore Mustangs dropped a best-of-three series to the homestanding Tallassee Tigers on Senior Night. “They played outstanding, probably the best we’ve played in a couple of weeks,” Tigers coach Katie Rigsby said. “We’ve been in a little bit of a slump. It’s Senior Night. I told them to bust their butts for the seniors and (the rest of the girls) did. We had some mistakes; we are always going to have some mistakes. But we haven’t beaten (SEHS) all year. To beat them in back-toback sets like we did is big and gives us momentum going into the area tournament.” In the first game of the bestof-three affair, Stanhope Elmore jumped out to a 7-2 lead. Jordan Walters, who finished the night with four kills and 14 attacks, broke the rally and moved the Tigers one point closer. Gabbi Taylor broke Tallassee’s short-lived rally and pushed the Mustangs up 8-3, but then the Tigers began closing the gap. Walters and Madelyn Martin scored on back-to-back kills and moved the mark to 9-8 with the Mustangs on top. The two squads continued to trade volleys until a Kayla Jolly ace knotted the match at 14-14.
After seeing her squad scramble to find a defensive answer, Mustangs coach Virginia Barber called time out. “We had some adversity to get through this year,” Barber said. “We’ve just got to figure it out. We’ll be fine though. We’ve just got figure it out.” Coming out of the break, the Tigers pushed ahead 18-15. Lotte Preusse, a force at the net most nights, had trouble finding the range on attacks, but dropped back-to-back kills in for Mustangs points cutting the deficit to 20-17. The Tigers added two points to go ahead 22-17. With Walters serving, Tallassee extended their lead to 24-20. Courtney Taylor and Allison Evans scored successive points for the Mustangs making the score 24-22. Stanhope Elmore added another score to make it a one point game. The game ended, however, when the Mustangs misplayed a Tallassee volley into the net for the Tigers point. Tallassee took the first set, 25-23. “Knowing that we can play that hard, coming from behind is good for our girls,” Rigsby said. “The crowd support was a huge factor.” Set 2 was nowhere near as close as Tallassee won 25-13. The Tigers and Mustangs contested the first eight points of the game to a 4-4 gridlock. Walters and Sally Shipman See TIGERS • Page A10

victories” would win the tiebreaker. With eight total wins, including victories over Fairhope, Northview and Prattville, Wetumpka’s number currently sits at 28 total wins. Stanhope’s is 19 and Opelika’s is 12. Both of those teams have a chance to add to their number in the regular season finale but cannot catch Wetumpka. Wetumpka had some problems with scheduling this season and was forced into giving away
one of its home games to play at a neutral site. Despite the extra traveling, Wetumpka’s non-region wins became vital in winning the region championship. Last season, Wetumpka also won the region in a three-way tiebreaker. It turned into three extra home games in the postseason as the team made a run to the state championship. Wetumpka will play its regular season finale this
week before taking a week off before the beginning of the playoffs. It will await the fourth seed from Region 1, which will either be Blount, St. Paul’s, Daphne or Baldwin County. “That’s big to be able to host the first round game instead of having to go on the road,” Perry said. “We’re very proud of that and we celebrated that but now the celebration is over and we have to get prepared.”

Volleyball 25-16. “We let a little bit of the energy of the gym play against us,” Stanhope coach Virginia Barber said. “We were hyped up and just too energetic if that’s a thing. We have to learn to use it.” Stanhope appeared to have things more under control at the beginning of the second set. Junior Lotte Preusser got her first kill of the match to give the Mustangs an early 4-1 lead. Stanhope led by as many as five points, holding a 12-7 lead. However, Wetumpka responded in a big way, going on a 9-2 run behind the service of freshman Erin Douglass. The two teams found the set tied at 20 but Wetumpka scored five of the final seven points to grab a two-set lead. “We were expecting it,” McKee said. “We knew we had everyone back and knew we had the ability to do this but we just had to put forth the effort. We had a purpose and it worked.” In the final set, Wetumpka continued to prove which was the better team Monday night. The Indians scored nine of 10 points to grab a 9-4 lead. Stanhope continued to fight but still trailed 13-8. On the next point, Wetumpka’s Morgan Causey got the first of three blocks in the final set. Wetumpka scored the next nine points behind the

service of Ryleigh Hamm. Wetumpka won the final set 25-11, finishing it off with a kill by Khloe Harris. “Getting block after block just really hypes me up,” Causey said. “It
hypes the team up and gets everyone together and gets the energy going. I think getting the energy up is what let us win tonight.” Hamm led the Indians with five kills in the
championship, totaling 12 for the tournament. Gomez added four kills of her own in the dominant victory. Caroline Tyler had 23 assists and was named to the all-tournament team. “It’s such a great feeling,” Tyler said. “We knew we had everything we needed to win but we just needed to come together as a team.” Wetumpka will now play Hillcrest-Tuscaloosa in the first round of the regional tournament Thursday afternoon. The Indians will need two wins in Montgomery to advance to the state tournament. “We just have to keep putting in the work at practice,” Tyler said. “We can’t get cocky; we just have to stay humble and keep playing the way we do.” Stanhope Elmore already qualified for the super regionals and will play Northridge in the first round. The Mustangs have had to deal with changes in their rotation over the past week and Barber said the team needs to find a way to adjust before Thursday. “I just told them that it’s time to grow up,” Barber said. “We have to play hard all the time. We didn’t play hard today at all, not the way we’ve been playing all season. We’ve had a few changes that we had to make and we’re not adjusting.”

and do it, we may as well do it right.” Holtville travels to Oak Grove on Friday night with a chance to clinch its first winning season since 2010. The Bulldogs are undefeated in nonregion play this season, outscoring their opponents 62-0 in two games. Oak Grove enters Friday night winless in its first nine games of the season. The Tigers have been outscored by 34.8 points per game this season. However, the offense has started to click as Oak Grove has scored more than half of its points this season in the last two weeks. “You have to get in the mindset of being physical up front and tackle really
well,” Franklin said. “They’re wanting to shorten the game down as much as possible by controlling the ball and running the clock. We want to put them in the position where they have to throw the ball.” The Tigers will hope to use their rushing attack to compete with Holtville, which is why the Bulldogs will be looking to get the opposing offense behind the line of scrimmage early and often. “We have to come out quick and get them in negative situations early,” Franklin said. “You want to force people behind the sticks. It can shrink down the playbook quite a bit, and it allows your
defense to play a little freer.” Holtville’s biggest obstacle this week may just be the travel. In away games this season, the Bulldogs have been outscored 106-105, losing three out of the four games on the road. If Holtville is fortunate enough to get into the playoffs, it will be playing on the road in the first round. Franklin said he hopes this week’s game at Oak Grove shows the players they can compete away from home. “We haven’t had great success on the road so we have to figure out what has been our issue there,” Franklin said. “We have to get this one to have some confidence.”

In addition to the ASHAA donating funds to Cottonwood High School, there are plenty of organizations around Tallapoosa County that are raising funds or material items to help those who were harmed or are still in need after the hurricane. If you’re a student, being a volunteer for your community looks great on college applications and is also a way to give back to a place that’s given to you. I’m always in awe when I see football teams or volleyball squads doing something for their community. It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it’s great to see volleyball teams around the area hosting Dig Pink days to raise money for either an organization or someone specifically in need within the community. I wrote a story for our Breast Cancer Awareness special section about what local football teams are doing to honor the cause, and while wearing pink may make football teams look great, it doesn’t necessarily help anyone. That’s why I loved the idea the Reeltown Rebels do, which is every player who wants to wear pink must donate $10 that will then be collected and given to someone in need. A lot of student-athletes in this county have aspirations to play at the collegiate level. At the next level, it becomes that much more important to be a pillar of your community because you’re in the public eye. The Auburn Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide players are heroes in the eyes of many young people, and it’s important to take that status and use it to teach good lessons. So whether it be donating something to hurricane relief or taking part in a Habitat for Humanity build, volunteering at Lake Martin Animal Shelter or raising money for someone suffering from cancer or another disease, find a way to get involved. Not only will it be good for the person you’re trying to help, but it’ll also make you feel better about your purpose. Keep this lesson in mind with Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up. If you’re blessed enough to have a giant turkey and a pile of presents under the tree, just remember not everyone is. See if you can find a way to help.

Tigers combined at the net to block an Allison Evans attack. From there, the Tigers went on an 8-0 run with Belle Haynes serving and recording a trio of aces during that run. Rikki McAdams broke the rally with a slap that fell to the floor through a gap in the Tigers defense. Stanhope Elmore added three more points and closed the deficit to 12-8.
continued from page A9
Rigsby called a timeout to talk things over with her squad. The Tigers were called for a double touch on the next volley allowing the Mustangs to inch closer. Shipman slammed a kill through the defense of the Mustangs to give Tallassee a point and the serve. The Tigers led 12-9 used a 7-3 rally to push ahead 19-12. The score moved to 20-12
following a Mustangs return into the net. “We didn’t play very well, honestly, and we are going to have to make some adjustments,” said Barber. “Going through the things we’re going through, we’ve just got to make some adjustments and we’ll be fine. We’ve got some girls that want to work and be here and a part of this team.”
Walters took the serve for the Tigers and effectively ended the game on a 5-1 run. She hammered down a kill on the first serve and an ace on the second. Martin added two kills then Walters ended the game with a pair of aces. Volleyball aside, the night was also a celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness as the Tigers rolled their annual
Dig Pink game into the Senior Night atmosphere. “This was the first time we’ve done this and had Senior Night at the same time,” Rigsby said. “I think we may do this again. It’s such a special night. We may continue to make this a tradition.” For Tallassee, this is the eighth year they’ve hosted a Dig Pink game raising nearly $20,000 in that time frame.

Man indicted in murder Commission discusses amendment to county vacation policy of former employer By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief
An Elmore man was recently indicted by an Elmore County grand jury in connection with the murder of his former employer. Brown Efrem Edrick Brown, 56, who lists an address on Alabama 143, was indicted on one count of murder. Brown was arrested by the Elmore County Sheriff’s Office and charged with the murder of 55-year-old Tony Ned Carr on April 26. According to his arrest warrant, Brown fatally shot Carr with a .22-caliber firearm on April 16. Carr’s body was discovered inside in his shop, located behind his residence on Fern Road in Deatsville, by his wife and brother later that day. According to court
documents, police believe Carr had been robbed at the time of the murder, because his cell phone and a large sum of money was missing. Authorities initially believed Carr died as the result of blunt force trauma, but evidence later indicated that Carr had been shot twice in the head. Court documents stated that Carr had told his wife, brother and best friend that he had been planning to fire Brown. Brown was booked into the Elmore County Jail on a cashonly bond of $50,000, where he remains as of Thursday. Brown’s attorney later filed a request to remove the cash only stipulation from his bond, which was denied by Elmore County District Court Judge Glenn Goggans. Murder is a Class A felony. if convicted, Brown could be sentenced to life in prison.

The Elmore County Commission discussed a proposed amendment to its personnel policy during a regularly scheduled work session and meeting Monday. According to Commission chair Troy Stubbs, the amendment would affect the maximum number of vacation hours that can be carried over for county employees. Elmore County Chief Engineer and Operations officer Richie Beyer said the amendment will double the amount of hours that employees can keep from the previous year. “This basically takes the annual carryover from 120 hours to 240 hours,” Beyer said. “I do not foresee any of the employees being adversarial to this change. I think they will definitely welcome that.”
Amendment 2
Beyer said the amendment would help resolve an issue among county employees who are trying to find a balance between not losing that benefit while also serving the county. “We have a good number of them actually lose time because they want to be here and serve their county,” Beyer said. Stubbs said the proposed amendment is part of the commission’s plan to upgrade policies for county personnel. “Many of you are aware, with our recent budget process, we’ve made many modifications and changes to the pay scale throughout the county. We’ve also made significant changes in the policies and procedures manual,” Stubbs said. “This is another way we are providing our employees with an additional benefit.” Stubbs said notice of the potential change will be
posted for 10 days in county offices and work areas in order to notify county employees, and will be voted on at the next commission meeting. In other business, the commission: • Passed a proclamation to recognize Domestic Violence Awareness Month. • Endorsed Trinity Episcopal Church’s “Tribute to Veterans” event at 4 p.m. on Nov. 11. • Ratified the town of Elmore’s appointment of Charles Patrick to the Emergency Medical Service Board. • Approved a three-year contract with Thomson Reuters to provide the Elmore County Probate office with the Westlaw legal database. • Approved a quote from Information Transport Solutions, Inc. to install cameras at the Elmore County Drug Task Force office.

reetings from the corner of Bridge and Bridge! I hope that everyone reading this column is doing well and excited that fall has finally decided to descend upon the City of Natural Beauty. I think it is safe to say that we had enough hot weather this year. Some of us may be glad for cooler temperatures but sad for what they tend to bring with them. I am speaking, of course, of campaign season. Did you know that mid-term elections happen in a couple of weeks? How could anyone not? Every means of communication is becoming more and more saturated with political ads. This makes sense, since the stakes are high in the ongoing power struggle between Democrats

and Republicans. Both parties have intense strategies for hanging on to key seats and for obtaining the swing seats they need to have a majority in one branch of government or another. In recent years, each campaign season features a certain amount of press related to the amount of money candidates have raised and spent. This variety of political coverage is typically found in print media. Deep analysis of financial support of various candidates is seen as a key measure of voter outcome. In the story of Aladdin, the evil Jafar tries to entice the young Aladdin to enter the Cave of Wonders to retrieve the magic lamp. Jafar promises Aladdin all the gold he can imagine in return for retrieving the lamp. Jaffar tells Aladdin,
REV. JOHNATHAN YARBORO First Presbyterian Church
“You know the rules about gold. The one with all the gold makes all the rules.” I wonder how deeply embedded that observation is in our national psyche. Varying levels of wealth are a natural byproduct of capitalism, but how far does that influence go? If we applied the principle to football, then the New York Giants would be undefeated because of Odell Beckham, Jr., to say nothing of my Auburn Tigers. I digress. I have encountered many articles related to the upcoming elections that seem to say that
whoever raises the most money will win the race. I cannot help but wonder how true that observation is. Our political process is becoming more about obtaining power than it is serving country. Perhaps Jafar was on to something. Does money really equate with power? We can easily point to numerous examples supporting that notion. The history of land ownership in our nation, for example, continues to demonstrate the connection between money and power. There are examples everywhere. At the same time, there are numerous examples of how money does not equal power. The Giants lost Monday night despite having the highest paid wide receiver on their team after all. While it will take an incredible amount of money

to rebuild following hurricane Michael, those affected will likely tell you that power is in the hands of those who offer to help. A kind word has more redemptive power than a cancelled debt. I say all this to offer a word of encouragement to everyone as another election comes our way. Do not let anyone buy your vote. Those who try to do so are concerned about power and nothing else. Instead, vote for the candidate you feel has the best interest of everyone at heart. Those candidates are concerned with answering a call to serve. Money cannot buy the servant heart. Think about that as you head to the polls.

The Slow Moving Sloth!
Sloth Word Search
A sloth is a type of mammal that lives in the tropical forests of Central and South America and is most well-known for how slowly they move about. Sloths are usually around two feet tall and live in the trees. They have two or three toes, depending on the species, with long claws and small, round faces. Sloths are almost always seen in the trees and never on the ground. This is because sloths cannot walk. When on the ground, they must pull themselves around by their claws; this makes them very susceptible to danger from other animals. For this reason, they almost never leave the trees. Sloths move about slowly and silently from branch to branch. Often, they hang in the trees, but they will also sit among the branches. Sloths are a brownish color, but they sometimes appear to be green because they are also covered in a type of algae RQ WKHLU IXU 7KH DOJDH KHOS WR FDPRXÀDJH WKHP LQ WKH WUHHV 6ORWKV DUH PRVWO\ QRFWXUQDO $ IHZ species are awake some during the day, but for the most part, they sleep during the day and roam through the trees at night to eat leaves and fruit. They also sometimes eat insects. Although sloths cannot walk, they are incredibly good swimmers and are very agile in the water. Of the he six species of sloth living, living the pygmy sloth is a critically endangered species, while the maned ned sloth is considered vulnerable. vuln

Reaching more than 22,000 households in Tallapoosa and Elmore counties The Dadeville Record
PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) The Full Moon invites extravagance. The decision to let go might have more to do with frustration than pleasure. Consider the possibilities, as they head in your direction. A noteworthy idea or happening could come out of confusion. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You have been displaying a quirkier facet of your personality as of late. You might not know why, and you seem unable to go further into the topic at hand. Goodwill emerges. As a result, you feel optimistic and positive that everything will be Äne. Tonight: Be spontaneous. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your instincts might drive you to react strongly, when there really is no reason for that kind of response. Take in all the facts, and consider the pros and cons of proceeding as you have been. In fact, the less said, the better. Stay on top of your game. Tonight: Hang out with a friend. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You feel pressured by a friend to make a choice that you normally wouldn’t. You could get moody and might want to distance yourself. Remain optimistic that things will go well. A visit and a chat with a loved one help make you feel cared about. Tonight: Get into the moment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Pressure to smile and say that everything is all right might be high. You probably need to speak your mind and allow others to get a better sense of what is going on in your mind. Someone greets you with a big smile; listen to his or her news. Tonight: Dinner for two. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Reach out to someone you care about. You could have diɉculty getting past all the activity around you, or around this person. Do not give up, and you’ll Änd a way to break through. Caring Åows naturally between you. A child becomes more responsive. Tonight: Time for fun. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
A partner or loved one might give in to a desire to be extremely overindulgent. You might go along for the ride until you are faced with reality. No matter what is going on, stay centered, even if you do not have the self-discipline you might desire. Tonight: Explore a new place. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might be unusually energized. Try to funnel some of this energy into a creative project rather than allow it to dissolve. Your sense of direction could play an important role in what goes down. A loved one enjoys hanging out with you. Tonight: Just act natural. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Even if today’s Full Moon has the eɈect of making you want to be around friends and visit with several diɈerent people, pace yourself. Your nerves could become jangled with everything that is occurring. You might want to open up to new ideas. Tonight: Kick up your heels. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be in the position of needing to be in two places at once. Despite being unable to meet the immediate demand, you somehow manage to make everyone happy. Express your caring and concern to a friend who will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Tonight: Let it happen. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your instincts might point to staying close to home. You are likely to do just that. Whether you just need some time oɈ or are needed elsewhere when something occurs, a change of pace is appropriate. You are able to read between the lines. Tonight: Lie low if possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The Full Moon encourages you to daydream. You also might decide to fulĂ„ll a long-term wish. You see beyond the obvious when dealing with others. You even might notice a missed detail or two. Stay centered. A trip might be in the oɉng. Tonight: Read between the lines.
