Council hears request for code officer By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor

For a little more than two years, Alexander City has been without an officer to ride herd on code violations across the city. Instead, the responsibility has been bounced between any police officer who is available and the City Building Department like a super ball in a phone booth. With a list of ordinances and codes that more than fills five three-ring binders, it was hard to have any consistency without one person dedicated to the task.

That’s why Alexander City Police Department officials are hopeful that the city council will provide funding in the new budget year for a uniformed code enforcement officer, housed in city hall, to assure a smooth working relationship with building officials. The idea was presented at a recent budget work session and seemed to get favorable feedback from members of the city council. “There is so much that goes into that job that it really takes someone who knows the code and how to approach those situations to do it well,” Alexander City Deputy Police Chief Jay Turner said.

“Each call and issue requires a lot of follow-up and time,” Turner said. “From the initial contact to resolution, it may take as many as four or five visits depending on the situation. It takes someone who is very organized to do it well.” Turner said that without a true code enforcement officer, the process had become complaint driven rather than heading off potential problems before they became bigger issues. “It became just putting out fires,” Turner said. “There wasn’t really an opportunity to do anything proactive. The council seemed

Deployment ceremony for 214th Military Police Unit set for Saturday By David Granger Outlook Staff Writer

One week after finding out its home at Mac W. Speaks Armory would be closed, the Alabama Army National Guard’s 214th Military Police Company has been called to active duty. The company will deploy approximately 140 Alabama National Guard soldiers to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. The 214th will perform external security of detainees and force protection for personnel located on the base. The soldiers of the 214th will continue to undergo extensive training at a mobilization station See GUARD, Page 9

Jackson’s Gap has a new councilperson for district one, Heather Glenn. Glenn was selected Tuesday night to serve out the term of Felicia Edwards who resigned last month. “She (Glenn) seems highly interested,” Council member Janice Glaze said while the council was discussing the position. “She has been at every meeting. She is fine with me.” “She is the only one that I have seen at every meeting,” Mayor Jeff Walker said. With a motion by Glaze, a second by Brody Crocker and a unanimous vote of the council, Glenn was selected. Glenn joked before she was sworn in by town clerk and magistrate Kathleen Thomas. “I am off to great start,” Glenn said while laughing after

So we are hopeful that’s something that we can do in the new budget year.” The Alexander City City Council voted Monday to continue under the existing budget until a new one can be approved. The process is moving from operational concerns to the capital budget. The council will hold budget work sessions Monday and Wednesday of next week at 4:30 p.m. in the upstairs conference room of City Hall. “We won’t be working on the budget See CODE, Page 9

Second Tutu Run doubly successful By Corey Arwood Outlook Staff Writer

The 2015 Tutu 2.2 Fun Run nearly doubled last year’s turnout with hundreds of runners raising both awareness for breast cancer and thousands of dollars for the Russell Medical Center Foundation. There were about 518 participants registered at this year’s event compared to the roughly 300 of 2014. Last Thursday’s Fun Run was in honor of the first day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and there was around $7 thousand raised from the event, which, according to Susan Foy, RMC director of Cliff Williams / The Outlook marketing, will be directed for Anabelle Gordon, Wylandis Clark and Carolina Gale use in services for the Cancer Tidwell spend time with two retrievers at the Tutu Run.

The Alabama Community College System has received 43 applications for the presidency of Alexander City’s Central Alabama Community College, according to a system spokeswoman. “Three of the (System’s presidencies) were posted and closed at the same time,” said Janet Martin, spokeswoman for the ACCS. “We had 43 applications for the CACC presidency and more than 100 applications total come in for the three positions. “Currently, our human resources office is going through all of those application packets to make sure they’re complete. When they’ve done that, we’ll schedule interviews with the chancellor.” The other ACCS presidencies that closed in September are at Bishop State Community College in Mobile and at Gadsden State Community College. Martin said she would not estimate when interviews might take place. “I honestly wouldn’t even begin to guess at a time frame,” Martin said. “There are a lot of applications for HR to go through. “I would say soon, but keep in mind ‘soon’ is relative.” Martin said that Chancellor Mark Heinrich will conduct the candidate interviews. Once Heinrich has settled on a selection for the CACC presidency – which will pay the successful candidate between $119,062 and $153,634 annually – he will make a recommendation to the ACCS Board of Trustees, which must approve it. ACCS is governed by a 10-member board which the governor serves as president. The board also includes one member for each of Alabama’s congressional districts, an at-large member and an exofficio member from the State Board of Education. Susan Foy, director of marketing at Russell Medical Center, serves as the board’s representative from District 3, which includes Alexander See CACC, Page 9

DEAR ABBY: I am a widow in my early 50s. While I was dating a prominent OB-GYN, I found out that he’s involved in criminal activity -- operating a so-called “pill mill.” On our last date he asked me to join an escort service he was starting. I notified the medical board of the state he’s practicing in and various government agencies. It amazes me that he is still practicing. He’s doing abortions, which means he has access to vulnerable young women. Knowing this, I have lost trust in our medical establishment. Nothing seems to affect this man’s success and practice. I have given up and am moving far away. What should I do? Have I done everything possible? This is obviously a very difficult situation for me. I am deeply concerned about his patients. I’m getting therapy now for my trust issues because of this experience. Is there anything else I should be doing? -- MS. X, SOMEWHERE IN THE USA DEAR MS. X: Having noti-

DEAR ABBY Advice

fied the proper authorities about this man’s activities, you have done everything you can. The only thing left is for you to concentrate on healing yourself, and your therapist can help you with that. I wish you luck in your recovery. DEAR ABBY: I wrote to you about my 97-year-old mother who was in failing health. My question was how to notify her out-of-state elderly friends with news of her passing when the time came. My idea was to use her address book/Christmas card list for addresses and then print a copy of her obituary with a short message thanking those friends for their letters, cards and support during her life.

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been dating for five years and have three wonderful children between us. Now, after a year of living together, we have begun to talk about marriage. We are happy, but we are introverted people and our main focus at this time is on raising our kids. This has left us with few friendships and only a couple of

close family members. If we do decide to get married, I’m worried about how many people we would be able to invite or if there would even be enough people to be in the ceremony itself. Do you have any suggestions for this kind of situation? -- SHY BRIDE IN KANSAS DEAR SHY BRIDE: Yes, I do. A wedding doesn’t have to be big and fancy to be beautiful and meaningful. That’s why I suggest you and your boyfriend be married quietly in a ceremony officiated by a justice of the peace or clergyperson of your choice. Ask your relatives and close friends to accompany you while you take your vows and have a small celebration afterward commensurate with your budget.

me back a note that positively reinforced my idea. My mother passed away earlier this year. I mailed the letters and received a response from almost every single person. Each one thanked me for letting them know the sad news. With your encouragement, I was able to handle this matter with respect and dignity. Thank you so much. -- GAYLE IN ARIZONA DEAR GAYLE: You’re welcome. I occasionally hear from readers asking if people I have advised actually follow my advice. I’m pleased my encouragement worked well for you. Thank you for letting us know.

Opinion

Power of the press : A force to be reckoned with

n 1928, Frank Capra made a silent movie called “The Power of the Press.” Douglas Fairbanks Jr. played Clem Rogers, an ambitious cub reporter hungry for a scoop. He gets more than he bargained for when his big story implicates the mayor’s daughter – who just happens to be Clem’s girlfriend – in a murder. In the end, the heroic journalist lands the story and the girl, and exposes political chicanery to boot. The film was selected in 2005 by the United States National Film Registry to be preserved by the Library of Congress because it was “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” We’re a long way from the age of silent movies, and the power of the press is being greatly affected by the changing media landscape. “As news coverage democratizes and as producers proliferate, the fabled ‘power of the press’ may diminish,” warned Carl Session Stepp, University of Maryland journalism professor, in a recent article in American Journalism Review. “Without that power, how will news organizations stand up for journalists, such as those pushed around by police in Ferguson, Missouri, or targeted abroad by terrorists? Or against the Obama administration’s backward policies on leaks and secrecy?” Those sorts of questions are why the theme of the 2015 National Newspaper Week -- “The Power of the Press” – is so relevant. This year is the 75th anniversary of National Newspaper Week. It was created in 1940 by the Newspaper Association Managers as a time to celebrate the newspaper industry. The week, which this year runs Oct. 4-10, is a chance to remind our communities of what newspapers mean to them, by editorializing about our watchdog role, touting our coverage of local government and politics, and reiterating our commitment to providing reliable community information and public notice. Of course, maintaining the power of the press doesn’t end with National Newspaper Week. It’s a year-round priority. We all know the power of the press is still a force to be reckoned with across this nation.

Why I became a newspaperman

here are people who wake up every day and dread having to go to

work. That’s because they look at what they do as work. Julian Mock was my high school principal at North Clayton Senior High in College Park, Georgia. One day he gave me the best career advice I ever received. It came midway through my senior year. I was in the office and I saw Mr. Mock was reading a newspaper story at his desk. He saw me in the hall and called me in. It turns out that he was reading an article I had written in the local paper about a wrestling match that I took part in. “Mitch, you are pretty good at this writing thing,” Mock said. “Do you enjoy doing it?” “Yes sir,” I said. “That is the important thing,” Mock said. “I tell students all the time that if you can ever find a job that isn’t work – take it. That way you will never work a day in your life. If you can make a living doing something you love, that’s what they call happiness.” His words stuck with me like someone else’s chewing gum on the heel of my shoe. That’s why I love what I do. I get to take in what is happening and tell people all about it every day. I get the chance to make people laugh, cry, scratch their heads and get riled up. Maybe the reason that I fell in love with newspapers dates back way before I knew that it was a career choice. The newspaper was always special at my house. Regardless

of when they got delivered, we weren’t allowed to open it until my Dad had digested it. He detested a scrambled, poorly folded newspaper. Regardless of whether it was the Atlanta Journal, The Clayton News Daily of the Market Bulletin, when he was done, I got my shot. I would scramble through the pages to find sports and read about my heroes, names like Tommy Nobis, Phil Niekro, Hank Aaron, “Pistol” Pete Maravich, “Sweet” Lou Hudson and Rico Carty. I would hang on the words of columnists like Furman Bisher and Jesse Outlar or see what it took to be cool with writers like Ron Hudspeth and Lewis Grizzard. Their words took me into locker rooms and inside stadiums that I never dreamed I would get to actually see. I would read the horoscopes, the comics, see if I could figure out the crossword answers that Dad couldn’t. The last thing I would do is skim the headlines and pick three stories to read from beginning to end. When I was done, I would dedicate them to memory so that I could impress a teacher the next day at school. I got all that from a rolled up bundle of paper that only cost a dime. I guess it’s pretty obvious

that when it comes to newspapers, the coke-bottle lenses I wear have a rose-colored tint. All across the county, newspapers like this one are celebrating the 75th Annual National Newspaper Week. The theme is “The Power of the Press” Newspapers do have a lot of power through watchdog journalism, accurate reporting, strong editorials, comprehensive public notices and a free, open public forum, the can shape the way a community thinks. Don’t get me wrong, all that is true. We as an industry do have an awesome responsibility – serving as the eyes, ears and often the voice of our community. But as a pudgy 14-year-old with Elvis Costello glasses none of that chest pounding stuff that we all hold dear today meant that much. You see, Mr. Mock was only telling me something I already knew. I had decided that I wanted to be a newspaperman on the day that I turned in my first sports story at the Clayton News Daily for which I was paid .25 cents a column inch. I realized that people got paid to write about what was happening in the world and help people learn something they wouldn’t have known otherwise. To me, that’s the definition of awesome. It was then and it still is today. Thanks for reading my newspaper. I call that job security. Sneed is the editor for the newspapers of Tallapoosa Publishers.

Dreams without goals are simply wishes

ach year, the federal government begins its new fiscal year on Oct. 1. Their budget usually makes about as much sense as Clear Pepsi, but there’s little I can do about that. There is, however, a lot I can do about my personal budget in my very own fiscal year. I’ve set forth financial goals over the next six, 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively. I’ll have a few personal loans paid off within six months. Ultimately, I want to have my house paid for in 24 months. At my current rate, I’ll have it paid in full in 288 months. That’s 24 years from now. I’ll be 67 years old. That’s just too darn long. It won’t be easy but with hard work and discipline, it can be done. Last week, I mentioned purchasing Sea Monkeys when I was a kid. Sea Monkeys are just one of the silly things I’ve spent money on in my life. I also paid money to see Vanilla Ice in concert, too. Don’t judge. Ok, so judge away. I deserve it. I bought a pair of acidwashed overalls from Gayfers to wear to that concert, too. Some nights, I wake up in a cold sweat thinking about that concert and all that it entailed. I used to eat out a lot and felt the need to clear my plate

at every meal. That’s just how we are raised in the south, but I no longer have that mentality. When I do eat out, I only eat half of it and save the rest for a later meal. That saves money in itself, but I mostly save money on food by cooking at home. Some people don’t like cooking for themselves, but I have no problem with it. Last year, I set health and wellness goals. I not only reached those goals but have maintained them for a well over a year, and, quite honestly, it’s been easy. You simply have to believe in what you’re trying to accomplish. I’ve wasted money on incredibly stupid things over the years, but in recent months, that has changed. I now have financial dreams that I’m tackling head on each day. On Oct. 1, the start of my fiscal year, I turned in my cable box. Getting rid of this motivation killer will save me over $100 per month, not to mention many wasted hours that I could be using to be more productive.

Dreams without goals are simply wishes. I’ve heard this anonymous quote for years and have lived by it extensively in my professional life. For example, I used to drive 500 miles to speak for free just to be heard, to get reviews, and to get my name out there. Today, people fly me around the globe and pay me to run my pie hole, too. I’ll be in Korea and Japan for the next two weeks doing just that. That’s not bad for a stuttering guy. American entrepreneur, author, and motivational speaker Jim Rohn said, “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” I’m now more disciplined than ever before and have goals in place to accomplish my dreams. I’ve learned from my financial mistakes, but some memories just can’t be undone. I also bought fake cologne from a pretty girl in the parking lot at Kroger once—out of her trunk, no less. I’m fairly certain I wore it to the Vanilla Ice concert. Jody Fuller is a comic, speaker, writer and soldier with three tours of duty in Iraq. He is also a lifetime stutterer.

trying to figure out where to stand for the oath. “I am excited to have been chosen,” Glenn said. “I was a little surprised because I’m not from this area originally, plus there were some very good people under consideration. But, this is my hometown and I look forward to trying to bring some new ideas and help make our town all it can be.” Afterwards, Glenn sat down with the rest of the council to carry on the town’s business. Jackson’s Gap resident Kenny Carter came back to the council bringing a legal description of the three lots he owns and would like to put modular homes on. He explained to the council that the lots were each about an acre in size and that he intends to only put one home per lot. Mayor Jeff Walker explained that the issue would need to go before the town’s zoning board before the council could approve it. The council voted to go into executive session to hear from Police Chief B.C. Cooper about possible litigation involving an employee. The Jackson’s Gap City Council also: • approved minutes from the last meeting. • approved payment of bills. • tabled discussion on hiring a surveyor to establish town boundaries Highway 280 on the northwest side of town. • tried to determine a time for all council members to visit property on Highway 280 that the town may purchase for a replacement of town hall. The next meeting of the Jackson’s Gap City Council is Nov. 10 at 6:30 p.m.

Center at RMC. “This was our second Tutu run. It was a 2.2 mile walk and run around our hospital campus. It just made for such a wonderful evening,” Susan Foy, said. She said that several breast cancer survivors walked in the event, along with multiple teams of representatives from various businesses and offices throughout the area. About 27 communities both near and far were represented by zip code, according to Foy. She said that there were runners who came from the Auburn area, some from the Birmingham area, and others from several outlying communities. There was even a runner from Canton, Ga., about three hours outside of Alexander City. “It is such a good cause and it’s a way to support each other in the fight against cancer,” said Foy. She said that the novelty of adults wearing tutus, and dressing their pets in them as well, is a fun way of raising awareness and connecting people around a serious issue that affects so many. “It’s just a really festive venue,” said Foy. She said that there were hundreds of cards mailed throughout the country, to cancer survivors that participants ran or walked in honor of. For the rest of the month Foy said that RMC has turned its campus pink, and on Tues, Oct. 13 there would be a luncheon in the Betty Carroll Technology Center ballroom. The event will feature oncologists from the RMC cancer center and a special presentation from the renowned story performer and actress Dolores Hydock. Foy said that every year the event is sold out to a crowd of around 450, and that tickets are still available at $15.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You nearly always have high energy, and today you have someone cheering you on. This personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enthusiasm revs up yours. Conceptualize and share ideas. Use the afternoon for organization. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to schedule an appointment. Tonight: Put up your feet and relax. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Stay close to home in the morning. You might have a personal matter you have to deal with. Your playfulness will emerge later in the day, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to take the day oÉ&#x2C6;. Why not? You might want to consider taking Friday oÉ&#x2C6; as well. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Reach out to a neighbor or sibling in the morning. You might want to spend more time at home than usual. Make that idea OK. If you can work from home, all the better. Relax, and you are likely to gain a better perspective of what is happening. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Pay bills and deal with money matters Ă&#x201E;rst. Communication will increase, and once you start getting calls, you will barely have a second to yourself. Recognize what is happening between you and a close friend who needs your time. Tonight: Speak your mind. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH A positive attitude will take you far. Who would be better than you to demonstrate that fact? Even if you experience a diÉ&#x2030;cult moment or two with a child or loved one, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deny the power of the bond that exists between you. Tonight: Get the bills organized. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll Ă&#x201E;nally hit your stride, but you still might be concerned about a Ă&#x201E;nancial matter. Recognize what is happening with your funds, and talk to an expert if need be. Get back to your day and handle a personal matter quickly. Tonight: Choose a favorite pastime.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Slow down. When you move too quickly, you encounter a problem. More information might be forthcoming, or a conversation could color your thinking. Sometimes a slow simmer is the best path to an excellent decision. Tonight: Take some much-needed personal time. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Be aware of what is being oÉ&#x2C6;ered and why. You could be overwhelmed by everything you have to do. Recognize your limits, and delegate whatever you can. Establish stronger boundaries as well. Respect your limits rather than push beyond them. Tonight: A must appearance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might be more closed down than you realize. Your mind is on other matters, and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be aware of the impression you are giving. You usually are able to see past the obvious, but not right now. Take some time to yourself. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH As knowledgeable as you are, you will need to reach out to someone who has more expertise. You are able to see where others are coming from, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want as many facts as possible. Trust in your ability to get past a problem. Tonight: Go oÉ&#x2C6; to the movies. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You could be too tired to continue as you have been. If you ask for help, you can count on others coming through. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to carry the burden of having to do everything by yourself. Just ask. Be aware that a friend could be touchy. Tonight: Say â&#x20AC;&#x153;yesâ&#x20AC;? to an oÉ&#x2C6;er. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to get into a power struggle. Consider letting go of a personal matter and allowing someone else to handle it. Not only will this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach be diÉ&#x2C6;erent, but it also might change what is happening. Tonight: Buy a token of appreciation to say thank you.

CACC

Cuba

City. She seemed surprised by the number of applications the CACC position had drawn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That seems like a large number of people to apply, but I know that we would like to have the new president in place by the end of the year, if not the end of November, which was originally the plan,â&#x20AC;? Foy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to talking to the chancellor about our next steps and the interview process.â&#x20AC;? The other ACCS board members are Gov. Robert Bentley; Al Thompson from Bay Minette (District 1), who manages a family clothing store business; Ron Fantroy of Evergreen (District 2), a plant manager for Shaw Industries Group; J. Frank Caldwell of Jasper (District 4), retired after 41 years in the nursing home industry; Crystal Brown of Decatur (District 5), director of business development for the DecaturMorgan County Chamber of Commerce; Milton Davis of Birmingham (District 6), director of industrial business development for Harbert International; Chuck Smith of Demopolis (District 7), retired human resources manager for RockTenn Paper and Forest Products; Blake McAnally of Decatur (atlarge), owner and president of Pugh Wright McAnally Civil Engineering and Land Surveying; and Mary Scott Hunter, State Board of Education member (exofficio) from Huntsville. One of the 43 candidates for the CACC position is Susan Burrow, who has served the college as interim president since February 2013, taking over at a time when the college was mired in financial questions following a series of negative audit findings. She has restored the college to solid ground and provided it much-needed stability. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very excited by the development and, needless to say, I will be eagerly applying for the position,â&#x20AC;? Burrow told The Outlook in August. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a long time coming and I would welcome the opportunity to serve in a permanent role as president here if given the opportunity.â&#x20AC;? Many consider Burrow to be the odds-on favorite for the CACC post. The CACC position was posted Aug. 24 and remained open until Sept. 23. The five-page posting outlined the expectations and requirements for qualified candidates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The president is the chief administrative officer of the college and is in direct reporting relationship to the chancellor of the Alabama Community College System,â&#x20AC;? according to the posting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The president is responsible for administering and supervising the total college program in the assigned college. As chief executive officer, the president must delegate authority and yet retain final responsibility for the effective operation of the college.â&#x20AC;? CACC was created by action of the Alabama State Board of Education on Feb. 23, 1989. The boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s action consolidated Alexander City State Junior College and N.F. Nunnelley State Technical College in Childersburg.

before deploying overseas. The company will have a departure ceremony Saturday, Oct. 10, at Benjamin Russell High School auditorium at 9:30 a.m. Local officials, as well as senior Alabama National Guardsmen, will attend the ceremony to send off the soldiers of the 214th. The general public is encouraged to attend to show their support for the soldiers and their families. The 214th previously deployed for Operation Desert Shield / Desert Storm in 1990-1991, and Operations Iraqi Freedom and New Dawn in 2003-2004 and 2010-2011. During its time in Iraq in 2003-2004, the unit was awarded the Valorous Unit Award and suffered the combat death of one its soldiers. Since 9/11, unit members have also been awarded a total of 40 Purple Hearts for wounds sustained in combat while serving overseas. The Alabama National Guard has called more than 22,000 personnel to active duty since 9/11 and remains a top contributor among the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Guard organizations. The closure of Mac W. Speaks Armory, made public last Wednesday, is a result of the Alabama Legislatureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to cut funding for the National Guard by $200,000 during the 2016 fiscal year. Huntsville, Winfield, Demopolis, Marion and Eufaula are also losing armories due to the budget cuts. Alabama National Guard Public Information Officer Lt. Col. Shannon Hancock said this weekend that the facility ranked low on a scale that included cost to operate and maintain the armory, condition of the armory and the armoryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to meet mission support. She said that the 61-year-old facility is in need of a lot of upgrades. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Alexander City armory was built in 1954 and is in the range of our oldest armories, needing a large amount of upgrades and modernization,â&#x20AC;? Hancock said. No exact timeline for closure has been determined, but Hancock said that the possibility of being used in the public sector is still possible.

this week because a number of the members of the council will be out of pocket for one reason or another,â&#x20AC;? Council member Jim Spann said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we will get back at it next week with some work sessions. Provided all that goes well, we could have a budget in place by Nov. 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The budget is a pressing item. With that said, we need to get with it. The big thing to understand, especially concerning the capital budget, is that we have to be realistic. We are facing some challenges.â&#x20AC;? Most on the council believe that a new budget could be ready by the councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next meeting, which was moved from Oct. 19 to Oct. 26.

TIGERS’ SEASON ON THE LINE Dadeville kicks off three-game stretch of region contests with road trip to No. 3 Leeds By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor

With three of the regular season’s last four games being region contests, the Dadeville Tigers are entering the most important part of year. The Tigers (3-3, 2-1 in Class 4A-Region 3) will hit the road to face the No. 3 Leeds Green Wave (5-2, 2-1 in Class 4A-Region 3) on Friday at 7 p.m. Richard White, head coach of Dadeville, said Leeds is a very straightforward running team on the offensive side of the ball. “They run the football. They’re big up front and they like to pound the ball,” White said. “That’s what they do. We’ve just got to find a way to put enough in the box to try to slow them down.” The Tigers and Green Wave have only met one time in their history, with Dadeville upsetting then No. 1 and eventual 4A State Champion Leeds 20-14 last season. But this year’s Tigers come into the matchup fresh off backto-back losses in games that were determined in the fourth quarter. In order to break the twogame losing streak, White said the Tigers are going to have to put together a complete football game and get a couple of breaks

here and there. “Play four quarters of football. We haven’t done it yet this year,” White said. “Last week, we were winning the game until eight minutes left in the ballgame. We were up 12-7 then they scored to make it 13-12, but we’re still in the ballgame. Then they scored again, but we’re still in the game. But it’s almost like we just gave up a little bit, and that’s not a good sign there. So, hopefully, if we learn to play four quarters of football and play defensively like we did on Friday night, we’ve got a chance to stay in the ballgame and you never know what can happen.” The next three games will be crucial for the Tigers, with all three contests being region matchups. With Region 3 currently jumbled with four teams having one loss in the region, White said it is essential that Dadeville start winning ballgames. “They’re important. We’ve got to win now to make the playoffs,” White said. “Right now, we’re in a four-way tie for second, third and fourth place. There’s four teams fighting for three (playoff) positions. So, right now, we’ve got to play betCliff Williams / The Outlook ter toward the end of the season to put ourselves in a position to Dadeville running back Josh Crayton breaks a tackle during last Friday’s game at home against Munford.

Alabama, Ole Miss both make statements on exciting fall Saturday

8-10. Alabama made a statement Saturday in Athens, Ga., with a resounding win – sending a message to the rest of the SEC that it isn’t dead yet and Georgia obviously has more bark than bite, again. 38-10. Ole Miss made a statement Saturday in Gainesville, Fla., with a resounding loss – sending a message to the rest of the SEC that it isn’t a championship team and perhaps Florida is a sleeping giant that has been awakened. Aren’t fall Saturdays great? After five of them this season, I thirst for more and wonder what twists and turns lie ahead. Points to ponder:  Alabama re-asserted itself as the favorite in the West, dominating Georgia the way it has dominated oppo-

nents since 2008. Sure, the Tide has a loss (Ole Miss) and Texas A&M and LSU do not, but I don’t see the Aggies or Bayou Bengals escaping the SEC schedule unscathed. The Alabama-LSU game on Nov. 7 should be another titanic tilt on CBS, particularly if both teams sweep their October schedules. Given LSU’s horribly unbalanced offense, Alabama should “limit” Leonard Fournette to 150 yards and win. But the Tide’s Oct. 17 game at Texas A&M could be the difference in a New Year’s Eve playoff

appearance, or simply playing on New Year’s Day in either New Orleans or Orlando.  Good news – Auburn has a winning record (3-2). Bad news – it doesn’t feel like it. The Tigers continue to struggle finding an identity on offense and making stops on defense, though Auburn forced four turnovers in a 35-21 win Saturday over San Jose State. After road trips to Kentucky and Arkansas, the Tigers’ schedule will grow horribly demanding. A six-win season could be a stretch. But this team was preseason SEC favorites for a reason, so …  When this week’s Associated Press Top 25 was released Sunday, I couldn’t help but notice a glaring omission in the Top 5 -- the SEC. Instead, it lists Ohio State, TCU, Baylor, Michigan State

and Utah. Why? SEC teams are beginning to beat up on one another while TCU gets to play hapless Texas, Baylor plays defenseless Texas Tech and Michigan State nearly loses to Purdue, which hasn’t been a contender since … well … I don’t know if Purdue has ever been a contender (no disrespect to Drew Brees).  Don’t discount Georgia just yet. A week ago, many (including myself) considered the Bulldogs to be a serious national championship contender. If the Bulldogs get their act together at Tennessee (a program in desperate need of something good to happen), it should go into the Halloween date with Florida in Jacksonville with just one loss. It’s not like the Bulldogs have a list of world-beaters on their schedule. That’s the

luxury of playing in the East.  Ole Miss. What in the world? The Rebels win in Tuscaloosa, ascend to No. 3 in the country and lay an egg at Florida. Maybe they were never that good to begin with.  Playoff projection: Ohio State, Michigan State, Baylor and Alabama. Clemson (4-0) is knocking at the door, but beat Louisville and Notre Dame by a combined five points. LSU would be in my Top 4 if it had a quarterback. TCU keeps winning, for now. And don’t get me started on Utah. Joe McAdory is Communications Editor at Auburn University’s Raymond J. Harbert College of Business and is former Sports Editor at the Opelika-Auburn News.
