County school board approves 2019 budget DHS teacher presents recap of students’ summer trip By DONALD CAMPBELL Staff Writer

One week after an initial hearing pushed up due to the potential for severe storms, the Tallapoosa County Board of Education passed a budget for Fiscal Year 2019 at Monday night’s meeting. “It’s a solid budget. It’s a good budget. It’s a true budget,” Tallapoosa County School Superintendent Joe Windle said. “We can provide the investment we need to invest.” Chief school financial officer Tommy Thweatt explained the average daily membership for the county schools has dropped by a little more than 60 students, with an assistant principal unit and half of a school counselor unit having been lost, yet the county schools gained a principal unit and a librarian unit. With all units added up, the county schools will operate with about 184 foundation units across the three campuses. The proposed budget has an estimated $30,756,091 in See EDUCATION • Page A10

appearance of the square. Smith said the project is mostly funded by an ALDOT grant with the city kicking in 20 percent of matching funds. Councilwoman Teneeshia GoodmanJohnson informed the council the city’s water and sewer board agreed with CDG Engineering to relocate a water line near the courthouse. She said it was necessary to get started on the project. Smith said it was possible work on the project could get started in late December. Also at the council meeting: • The council approved minutes from the Aug. 21 meeting. • Listened to resident Linda Pritchard’s complain about her neighbor’s cats getting loose and coming into her yard. Smith said it would be best for her to speak with an attorney moving forward. • Announced the city received one bid for repairing the roof on the Dadeville City Hall. The city is still hoping for more bids and plans to open the documents on Sept. 20. • Granted rental agreement for the recreational center. • Approved the payment of bills for August. The next city council meeting is scheduled for Sept. 25.

office is a local point of contact with FEMA and a grant hub for local agencies on emergency-related issues. His office also works closely with the National Weather Service and helps with communication after a disaster if communications infrastructure goes down. Earlier this year, Moran said officials from Tallapoosa County, Alexander City, Dadeville and other surrounding communities came together for an emergency exercise, reacting to a staged collision between a county school bus transporting students from Dadeville High School to the Edward Bell Career Tech Center and a propane gas truck. Being the first such exercise held in Dadeville in more than a decade, and with training exercises an important component of the EMA, Moran was impressed with how the training exercise turned out. While Moran did speak some about the EMA in general, he spent most of his conversation talking about Tallapoosa Alert and all it can do for residents of the county. “All you need to sign up for it is a Tallapoosa County address,� Moran said. “You can have it call your home phone, your cell phone, text you and even email you.�

There is no cost to sign up for Tallapoosa Alert, and those registering can select as few or as many weather conditions they wish to receive alerts for, according to Moran. Information is sent out from the National Weather Service based on the latest severe weather polygons drawn, ensuring residents in the areas of concern receive timely warnings, while “false alarm� warnings are not sent out to residents in a part of the county where the skies are clear. Even though Moran said he is passionate about Tallapoosa Alert and making sure people sign up for the service, he also said it is imperative to have more than one way for locals to get their weather information. Some of the additional methods Moran suggested included owning a NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) weather radio and apps like the WSFA weather app. What makes Moran so passionate about getting the word out on Tallapoosa Alert and reminding everyone how to stay safe during severe weather stems back to the tornado outbreak that devastated Alabama in April 2011, including one tornado that touched down in Elmore County, crossed Tallapoosa County and finally

dissipated in Chambers County. “One person in Tallapoosa County died during those tornados, and that’s one too many,� Moran said. Moran ended his presentation reminding the group to look for a spot in the center of a structure with no windows and no outside walls if at all possible when severe storms hit. He also stressed having a plan and practicing it, learning some first aid skills and don’t drive through standing water on a roadway. “If you have staff or in-service training at your office and would like me to come speak to you, I would be more than happy to,� Moran said. As the Kiwanis Club members began to leave, several filled out a form to sign up for Tallapoosa Alert, while a couple of the Key Club members took forms with them to fill out later. The Kiwanians appreciated Moran taking the time to talk to their group, finding much of what he said to be fascinating. “I think it’s important to make sure everyone is signed up for the alert service,� Sandra Carlisle said. Gabby Witherington added, “I always learn something when I come to Kiwanis. I didn’t fully realize all Tallapoosa Alert could do.�

Commission

continued from page A1

Beck declined to comment on the specifics, only saying the incentive would be cash for retirement-eligible employees and would only be available for a limited amount of time. Beck explained pay increases were being examined for deputies in the Tallapoosa County Sherriff’s Department for retention efforts. Beck told the commission it looks like revenue would be even for next year. “Property tax is basically flat,� Beck said. “We did see a modest increase last year with Sabal Trail.� Commissioners are also looking at adding an employee for county tourism efforts. “It would be a one-person department instead of an authority,� Beck said. “It makes things faster and gives the commission more direct input.� Beck said the anticipated budget for the new department would be about $110,000 for operations, salary and benefits. The commission gave the nod for Beck to go ahead and start

advertising the position, though the commission has yet to approve the new position or the budget. The job would likely be contracted similar to the county administrator and the county engineer. Another possible issue with the budget is increasing costs of health insurance. Beck told the commission they had been told there would be an increase of 5 to 7 percent which amounts to $50,000 to $70,000. The accounts of the county are also being audited. “As you know, we are being audited for the last two years,� Beck said. “It is a little tough as we are doing it with new software.� Beck said no major issues are expected. A re-plat of part of Driftwood Subdivision off of Young’s Ferry Road was approved because of buildings being built over or near property lines. “This is probably going to be a common thing,� engineer David Moore said. “It is not affecting roads or utilities.�

and the county would see savings of about $20,000 a year with the move. The commission went into executive session for 35 minutes to discuss the good name and character of an individual. The commission also: • approved the minutes from the Aug. 13 meeting. • approved warrants and purchase orders. • approved two Family Medical Leave Act requests. • approved material bids for the road department for items such as signs, rock, asphalt plant mix and other things the county would spend more than $15,000 on in a year. • approved a final plat for Ponder Village at Lake Martin. • approved a preliminary plat of Long Leaf Phase 7. The commission adjourned the meeting but will reconvene it Sept. 27 at 9 a.m. The commission will meet again Oct. 8 at 9 a.m.

Moore told the commission what has happened in several developments is outbuildings and other structures have been built too close to property lines and in some cases across property lines. The re-plats will be somewhat common to correct the issue for mortgages and insurance purposes. Moore asked the commission about doing this administratively, to which the commission agreed for this purpose when it did not involve roads or utilities. A representative of the Tallapoosa County Board of Education informed the commission the board had approved a resolution to hire Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood for a facility study and 15 years of enrollment information had been provided to the group. The plan should be ready in the next 60 to 90 days. Workers’ compensation insurance will now be handled by the Association of County Commissions of Alabama Workers Compensation Self-Insurer Fund. Beck said the county could see a savings of 15 percent with a three-year contract. The contract will end in 2021,

GENERATOR SAFETY TIPS

N

ever connect a standby generator into your home’s electrical system. There are only two safe ways to connect a standby generator to your equipment.

Powering Up After an Outage When the power goes out, we expect it to be restored within a few hours. But when a major storm or natural disaster causes widespread damage, extended outages may result. Our line crews work long, hard hours to restore service safely to the greatest number of consumers in the shortest time possible. Here’s what’s going on if you find yourself in the dark:

STATIONARY GENERATOR: An approved generator transfer switch, which keeps your house circuits separate from the electric co-op, should be installed by a professional.

PORTABLE GENERATOR:

1. High-Voltage Transmission Lines: Transmission towers and cables that supply power to transmission substations (and thousands of members) rarely fail. But when damaged, these facilities must be repaired before other parts of the system can operate.

Plug appliances directly into the outlet provided on the generator.

2. Distribution Substation: A substation can serve hundreds or thousands of consumers. When a major outage occurs, line crews inspect substations to determine if problems stem from transmission lines feeding into the substation, the substation itself or if problems exist further down the line.

Set up and run your generator in a well-ventilated area outside the home. Make sure it’s out and away from your garage, doors, windows and vents. The carbon monoxide generated is deadly. 3. Main Distribution Lines:

Use a heavy-duty extension cord to connect electric appliances to the outlet on the generator.

If the problem cannot be isolated at a distribution substation, distribution lines are checked. These lines carry power to large groups of consumers in communities or housing developments.

Start the generator ďŹ rst before connecting appliances.

CALL (877) 456-8732 to report an outage

4. Tap Lines: If local outages persist, supply lines (also known as tap lines) are inspected. These lines deliver power to transformers, either mounted on poles or placed on pads for underground service, outside businesses, schools and homes.

5. Individual Homes:

Tallapoosa River Electric Cooperative s TREC COOP

If your home remains without power, the service line between a transformer and your residence may need to be repaired. Always call to report an outage to help line crews isolate local issue.

We all need to know the signs of suicide

M

onday was World Suicide Prevention Day, and even though the day has passed, we should spend every day trying to prevent suicide in all forms. Actor Robin Williams, Linkin Park lead singer Chester Bennington, NFL linebacker Junior Seau lost their lives due to suicide and the list goes on. And that’s a just dab on the spectrum of famous people who have committed suicide. It doesn’t even begin to approach the everyday problem the United States has with people ending their own life. According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S., and 44,965 Americans die by suicide each year. In Alabama, one person dies by suicide every 11 hours. It is also the third leading cause of death for individuals ages 15 to 24 in the state. We point this out because we all need to be able to identify risk factors for suicide. Some of the major ones are alcoholism or substance use disorders, hopelessness, impulsive or aggressive tendencies or a history of trauma and abuse. Additionally, we need to know the warning signs: peers and loved ones talking about killing themselves, talking about being trapped or in unbearable pain or talking about being a burden to others. Several more risk factors and warning signs can be found at www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org. Just understanding the issues concerning suicide can play an essential role in helping individuals who are struggling. Sometimes just talking about the problems can help, other times reducing that person’s access to self-harming materials may be necessary. The overarching theme here is we all have to be aware of what to do when somebody is crying out for help, and we need to be able to provide such support ̾ even if it’s just having a conversation. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline can be reached at 1-800273-8255.

‘Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus’ I

grew up in a small country church in Tallapoosa County. We spent a lot of time there at Elder Church. Practically everyone in attendance each Sunday morning was family or close enough anyway. It was a special place. I’m excited to be speaking at homecoming there next month. We’ll no doubt be singing some of the old hymns. I love those old hymns. Contemporary songs and services are wonderful, but there’s just something special about those old southern gospel hymns. Since moving to Tallapoosa County, we started going to church at Eagle Creek, which is not very far from Elder, as the eagle, er crow, flies. We’ve only been a handful of times, but it appears it’s going to be a permanent thing. Speaking of hands, we end each service by holding our neighbor’s and singing the chorus to the old hymn “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.” Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face, And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, In the light of His glory and grace.

Dear Editor, No doubt, we currently live in perhaps the most acrimonious time in memory in this country. We have a duly elected president who has managed to tick off both Democrats and Republicans simultaneously to the point they both have declared war on him. He definitely is a maverick and obviously constantly behaves in ways virtually everyone finds offensive at times. But, can we objectively

look briefly at what kind of job he has done so far compared to his predecessor: Trump: 18 months; Obama: eight years — Job approval: 50 percent; 45 percent Unemployment rate: 3.9 percent; 7.4 percent (*) Jobs created: 3.2 million; (2.9) million Deficit: $532 billion; $936 billion GDP growth: 4.1 percent; 1.6 percent (*) The unemployment rate for the eight years of Obama’s

term is an average of the eight years. Trump has only served 18 months to date and consequently cannot be averaged annually. Regardless of your political leanings, even the average third-grader can understand these results. Warts and all, President Trump is delivering on what he promised!

Trail

according to Cherokee Ridge Alpine Trail’s Harold Banks. “This place is busy on the weekends,” Banks said. “There are 7 miles of trails.” The Lakeshore, Tower Loop, Little Smith Mountain and Island Hop trails take visitors across the exposed quartzite rock forming part of what is called “The Devil’s Backbone.” “It is in between two fault lines and in some places less than a mile apart,” Banks said. “From the tower you can see it. This formation brought gold bearing ore that was mined until the gold rush in California.” Being placed on the Piedmont Plateau Birding Trail will bring even more people to visit the area. It is none too soon for birding enthusiasts like Joe Watts with the Alabama Birding Trail and the Birmingham Audubon Society as Smith Mountain joins the rank of other fire towers in the state. “We are happy to have Smith Mountain as part of the birding trail,” Watts said. “We are officially welcoming another fire tower at Flagg Mountain later this month.” Wednesday local birders were joined by guests from Birmingham Audubon Society and others from the Piedmont Plateau Birding Trail. Birds spotted on this excursion included turkey vultures and pine warblers. Smith Mountain joins many other birding locations on the map for birders to view the many types of birds in the state. “It becomes one of 281 locations in Alabama,” Watts said. “Alabama has more than 450 species of birds and you can regularly see some 350. It is still a lot of birds.” Watts said other states may have only 200 to 300 birds in the state. Cliff Williams / The Outlook “We really are one of the great hotspots that does not Top left: Members of the Birmingham Audobon Society look for birds as Smith Mountain is added to the Piedmont Plateau Birding Trail Wednesday morning.

Oliver wants to move the 81st District forward By DUSTIN DUNCAN Staff Writer

Economic development, education and healthcare are at the top of Republican candidate Ed Oliver’s platform during his campaign for the 81st District seat in the Alabama House of Representatives. Oliver, 62, made a decision late to run for the seat, but after a talk with a close friend in the Legislature, he was convinced to head to Montgomery and sit down with high-ranking Republican political figures. That conversation consisted of current 81st District representative Mark Tuggle, Alabama Speaker of the House Mac McCutcheon, and Majority Leader Nathaniel Ledbetter. After that discussion, Oliver said he made a difficult decision to throw his hat into the ring to represent the district. Oliver finished in the top two during the primary election in June and then defeated Terry Martin in the runoff election a month later. He said he’s happy to be in the race and the experi-

ence to this point has been great. However, he knows things can’t be fixed overnight if elected. Industrial development and growth in the district is one of the top issues on Oliver’s list. He said Russell Athletics is gone and the district needs to move past it. He said several businesses pay employees $9 an hour, and while the area is happy to have

Oliver said the economy is entirely different today than it was 30 years ago due to the influence of technology and rising costs of essential goods.

Healthcare is also a big campaign issue for Oliver. He said Medicaid expansion is not going to happen in Alabama because the Republicans in the Legislature don’t want to start a social program that generations of people will pay for and incentivizes people not to work. He said it would also dissuade companies from coming into the district, and create a tax nightmare. “The state economy would come to a screeching halt,” he said. Also under the healthcare umbrella, he said hospitals are close to shuttering their doors, which causes those in rural areas even more problems with access to healthcare. He said there is an aging population in the district and 15 percent of the population doesn’t drive. Oliver said he wants to find three pieces of legislation to help the district if elected. That legislation isn’t identified just yet, but he’s working with local leaders and state officials to figure out what needs to happen. “All the folks that will vote for me live here,” he said, “not in Montgomery.” If elected, he said he is interested in serving on the Veterans Committee, Healthcare Committee, and Public Safety Committee. Oliver will face Democratic candidate Jeremy Jeffcoat in the general election Nov. 7.

cation. He said schools in the 81st District need to be competitive with surrounding areas to entice families to live nearby. He said ACT scores and the percentage of students receiving free lunches are weighed heavily into that decision. He said he’s a major advocate of public schools and the Republican-led Legislature passed the largest education budget in the state since 2006. Oliver said Dadeville schools and Alex City schools both have their own set of challenges. He said Dadeville has 76 percent of its students on free lunch with low ACT scores and Alex City has 50 percent of its students receiving free meals. “Those two numbers are what people look at,” he said. “The ACT score is the number that compares schools to the rest of the country.” He praised the activities happening at each school, adding there are great programs, but generational poverty has led to the free lunch numbers being what they are. He said it is something the area has been fighting for a long time. Oliver also urged the use of technical schools, citing Edward Bell Career Technical Center in Camp Hill. He said the average starting salary is $40,000 a year after finishing the program. “If we can come up with the jobs, the workforce will come,” he said.

Among those praising the ITC on the decision to halt these tariffs is Sen. Doug Jones, who has been a strong advocate for repealing the taxes since they were introduced.

Not only did these newsprint tariffs meet opposition from members of Congress, but also an overwhelming majority of the U.S. paper industry, including the American Forest and

Paper Association (the national trade association of the forest products industry), opposed the import taxes because of the threat they posed to customers across the country.

estimates expenditures of $28,934,247. Along with the budget, Dadeville High School teacher Wes Talton was present at the meeting to

give the board a review of the trip he and a handful of Dadeville students took to Ireland, Wales and England shortly after school let out. “I want to thank you all

for approving us to go on this trip,” Talton said. “It was a magical experience for everyone involved.” Talton described Ireland as the greenest place he had ever been, and the company setting up the tour provided the group with tour guides who were highly knowledgeable. He said the Irish were some of the nicest people he and his students had ever met, while finding the food in all three countries to be among the freshest they had eaten. “Travel is transformative,” Talton said. “Our students represented Tallapoosa County with respect and honor.” “I am convinced that travel is the best education there is,” board member Betty Carol Graham said.

Talton wrapped up his presentation by saying he was planning the next student trip, tentatively scheduled for the summer of 2020. Students on this trip will have the opportunity to visit Rome and Paris. The Tallapoosa County Board of Education also handled the following matters: • Minutes from the Aug. 13 meeting and Sept. 4 budget hearing were approved. • A motion to approve the latest liability coverage for the board was approved. • The board approved recently re-written and updated job descriptions for every position within the county school system. Windle said the organization,

responsibilities and duties for each position have changed since the last rewrite, which occurred in the late 1990s or early 2000s. • The monthly financial report was approved, and the monthly bills were paid. • The board approved the retirement of bus driver Timothy Leonard and the purchased service agreements with Lisa East, Hoyt Sanders and Wendy Fineberg at Dadeville Elementary School, Ami Scott at Horseshoe Bend, Brucille Peoples and LaTonja Henderson at Reeltown Elementary and Jan Ledbetter at Reeltown High School. • Several out-of-state and overnight trips were approved, including convention trips for the Horseshoe Bend FCCLA and FFA. • Making sure policies were consistent at all three schools, the board approved revisions to the graduation policy, cleaning up language and making sure everything was in line with state requirements. This policy change will officially become active with next year’s freshman class. • The board approved moving the October meeting to Oct. 15 to avoid conflicting with fall break.

Don’t put too much pressure on one person’s shoulders

H

igh school is hard enough. Speaking from someone who had a tough time getting through those daunting four years, high school is not easy. There’s pressure to perform in school, there’s pressure to be popular and there’s pressure from parents to follow in their footsteps. Add being a student-athlete on top of that, and I can only imagine what a person goes through in high school. I was talking to Dadeville coach Richard White a few weeks ago, and he said something we should all remember. “When you’re dealing with 15-, 16-, 17-year-old boys, you never know what you’re going to get,” White said. “It’s like a box of chocolates; you just go in there and grab something and hope it’s something that you like.” Think about being the star quarterback for your high school football team, and your girlfriend just broke up with you Friday after school. Or you bombed on a test you really needed to ace. Or you had a big interview for a job or internship that didn’t go so well. Then you have to turn right around and put the weight of your team on your shoulders. Living in the South, I’ve learned just how much high school football means. White also told me the Tigers’ loss last week to Reeltown wasn’t just an embarrassment to the team, it was an embarrassment to the community. That’s a lot of pressure to bear. It’s extremely important to remember not to put too much pressure on these kids’ shoulders and also not to single one person out. Imaging being a kicker that misses a potential game-winning field goal in the playoffs. Even if you made every field goal and extra point for three years prior to that, somehow the big miss is what you feel like you’ll be remembered for. While the quarterback or stud running back is always looked to as the star of the game — or the failure if things don’t work out — there’s a lot more to it than just one person. If the offensive line doesn’t block well, there’s no room to run, and if the receivers didn’t run their routes well, the quarterback wouldn’t have anyone to throw the ball to. If the defense wasn’t playing well, it wouldn’t matter how much work the offense was doing. And if the coaches, trainers and administrators weren’t giving them time and expertise, the team would have no room to learn and grow. There’s a whole process involved in football games, or any competitive sport, for that matter. It’s also key for coaches not to put too much stock into one player; we’ve all seen how one injury causes teams to change their entire outlook for the season. Regardless of wins and losses, it’s important to remember, at the end of the day, these players are kids and they’re playing a game. Yes, winning is the ultimate goal. It’s good for morale of the team and the community, and every player wants to see their hard work pay off. But there’s a lot more to learn from football than just how to win. Football teaches kids how to work hard; it can teach them never to give up. It helps them learn about adversity and how to overcome it, and it shows them how family doesn’t just mean blood. So whenever you’re out there screaming your head off at a kid whose done something wrong during a game, try to remember it’s only a game. Lizi Arbogast is the sports editor of The Record.

Dadeville hopes to keep foot on the gas in region play By LIZI ARBOGAST Sports Editor

While Dadeville’s football team still had some struggles with turnovers and lackadaisical tackling, it got off on the right foot in its reemergence in Class 3A. The Tigers picked up a convincing victory over Southside Selma to kick off 3A Region 3 play last week and are looking to keep putting the pedal to the metal this week when they travel to Bullock County. “I think we played good the first half (last week), but we’ve yet to learn how to finish someone off,” Dadeville coach Richard White said. “We don’t have that killer instinct yet of how to put somebody away when you’ve got them down, so we’re working on that.” Bullock County’s 0-2 record could be deceptive as the Tigers enter 2-1 (1-0), as the Hornets played two top tier teams to start the season. Comparing opponents, both Bullock County and Dadeville have faced off against Reeltown; the Rebels beat Bullock County, 35-8, and topped the Tigers, 32-8. That could signify a close game on the horizon. According to White, the Hornets are similar to

Reeltown’s Eric Shaw (6) has been a force on both sides of the ball so far for the Rebels.

Rebels the favorites this week, they’re not ready to get complacent. “We’ve gotta attack every single day the same way because the mission doesn’t change,” Reeltown coach Matt Johnson said. “We’re going in there with the mentality that what we’re doing still isn’t as good as what we could do. Being 3-0 is great, but as far as any of our goals, we haven’t accomplished anything else.” Reeltown is coming off a big win against Fayetteville, during which most of the starters were taken out after the first quarter. With the recent injury to Tre Tre Hughley, it’s been good for the Rebels to get reps for some of their younger players. Johnson said Scooter Brooks came on strong during last week’s game against the Wolves, and the Rebels also saw the return of Johnny Brown. “When you have an opportunity to get some younger guys, who have been putting in the work, to get some reps, that’s great for those guys,” Johnson said. “They deserve it, and they did a very good job. There were some definitely bright spots with those guys.” But it’ll be the dual threat of Keke Hughley and Cameron Faison at tailback that’ll really carry the load for the Rebels, and Horseshoe Bend knows exactly what those guys are capable of. Last week, Faison rushed for more than 100 yards and did it on just five carries. “We have to try to limit the big plays,” Horseshoe Bend coach Josh Averett said. “They’ve got so

continued from page B1

many guys that are so explosive. You gotta try to make them drive the ball down field and hopefully they’ll make a mistake before we will.” Defensively, though, the Rebels will have to keep their eye on Generals quarterback Nywanski Russell, who is a big-play threat in his own right. “Anytime you have a quarterback that is such a dual threat like him, you never know what can happen,” Johnson said. “It makes it tough because the more sound you are on defense, the more big plays that he’s capable of having. If we get pressure, as soon as he breaks containment, he can go as far as he wants to go with it. He’s so athletic, extremely fast and handles the ball well.” Reeltown will also be wary of two-way starter Jumall Buchanan, who is the Generals’ top running back and also had a pair of sacks on defense last week against Thorsby. Going into Friday night’s game, the Generals are still trying to find their identity, but the Rebels aren’t expecting it to be a walk in the park. “We thought we were going to be somewhere else at this point and right now we’re struggling to find ourselves and figure out who we are,” Averett said. “That’s always a struggle.” Johnson said, “We expect their best. They’ve always played us extremely tough, and you go back probably six or eight years, this game has always been close. We expect to see the best Horseshoe Bend that we’ve seen all year, and that’s what we want.”

Tigers coached by a guy that understands the game and teaches them the right way to do things.” Offensively, Bullock County is led by quarterback Robert Williams and running back Kentavis Pugh. “Their running back is an athlete,” White said. “Their quarterback does a good job of running the team. He has some good passes too. He’s listed as a freshman, but he doesn’t play like a freshman. They have some big ole boys up front on both the offensive and defensive lines, and in the back end in the secondary, they’re very athletic.” On the defensive side, the Hornets present a bit of a unique challenge as White said they typically run out of a 5-2 front. “I’ve seen them in the spread with a five-man front which is

continued from page B1

very unusual,” White said. “We could see a 3-4 look, but they give you a five-man spread look in the box in the spread.” One big worry for the Tigers is they’ve been hit with a bit of the injury bug. Safety Alex Sims went down with a concussion during last week’s game and his status was unknown as of Tuesday afternoon. “We’ll know more on Thursday, but if he plays, he won’t do anything but kick,” White said. “We looked at a ninth grader moving in there to give us some help at safety and he rolled his ankle the last play of the game. It was a high ankle sprain, so he’s in a boot for six to eight weeks.” But the Tigers hope their rushing attack will be up to snuff again this week, as they combined

for 230 yards a week ago. While Javuntae Holley and Christian Nelson are both starting to get their feet wet, quarterback Slade McCullers contributed the most yards with more than 100 on the ground. Overall though, Dadeville is looking to put itself in good position in the region and whether that means a sloppy victory or a dominating one, White is hoping their mission will continue to grow. “This team is a work in progress,” he said. “I don’t have veteran starters and all that returning, so it’s something we have to chase every day. Even the guys that are seniors, a lot of them are inexperienced, so we have to keep reteaching things. Things haven’t really set in and clicked yet.”

The Wetumpka Herald

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) A partner feels intensely about a discussion and opens up a conversation about a long-term goal. You might not be comfortable with what is going on. Actually, an element of confusion could be running through your communication. Tonight: Let someone else make the call. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You could be tied into a controversy without even trying. You might not realize that you have sustained a lot of pressure recently and need a break. Someone you answer to could be on the warpath. Try to keep the situation calm. Tonight: Be playful and think about weekend plans. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You feel pressured to act a certain way. You might not appreciate what is happening behind the scenes. Investigate what has to be done. Minimize your obligations; you could have a special, long-desired opportunity dropped on you. Tonight: Share news with your best friend. CANCER (June 21- July 22) Listen to news without judgment. Know that a low-level fog might be causing a haze in your thinking. You might not know if others are getting the gist of your communication. You could Änd yourself being challenged without reason. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) If you feel that something quite confusing is going on with your funds, you might be right. Double-check your change and your bills, and use care with any Änancial involvement. You do not want to sign a business contract at this present moment. Tonight: Play it low-key. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your creativity emerges. You decide to share some important concepts with a loved one. This person could be intrigued by your ingenuity, as he or she rarely sees this side of you. Decide to run with the moment and your idea. Tonight: Claim your power, but have fun along the way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Get to the bottom of a hassle. By observing, you will understand a lot more. You could feel awkward around a loved one. How much are you responsible for creating this situation? You often don’t think about this person’s feelings; you just do what you want. Tonight: Stay centered. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be more integrated and complete than you thought you were. Stay sensitive to others and their needs. Someone might have diɉculty expressing what he or she needs, and you might not understand why. Help this person clarify. Tonight: Whatever knocks your socks oɈ. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) If you can, continue to lie low. You are about to enter a very busy cycle. Get as much rest as possible, and make sure that you are up-to-date with various time-sensitive work responsibilities and errands. You might Änd out an odd fact about your family. Tonight: Go with the moment. CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) Zero in on what you need to do. Don’t avoid a big meeting, even if you think that you already know what is going to be discussed. Be more direct with a friend. You might want to make plans for the weekend. Your imagination takes over. Tonight: Follow your friends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You sixth sense often comes out when you are dealing with Änances. Today, what you feel might not work needs to be left alone. In fact, the less done, the better the results will be. Do not give in to a desire to take control over an emotional situation. Tonight: Where the party is. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Listen to the drumbeats. You will want to go along with the moment. You might be likely to experiment and try something new. Perhaps you could get into a new hobby or a diɈerent set of friends. You feel as though you want some type of renewal. Tonight: Let the party go on and on.

Rescue Squad now has newest sonar technology By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer

The Alexander City Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad is on the cutting edge of search efforts, thanks to newly acquired sonar equipment. “This is a good day for us,” Tallapoosa County EMA director Jason Moran said. “We got some equipment we can use. It is the latest technology as far as sonar goes. It gives us the ability to locate and find a missing person or evidence like cars or other objects for a criminal case. We are very thankful.” Similar technology was used a year ago to find Thomas Heulan Spence last August after he dove into the waters of Lake Martin and failed to resurface. For six days, authorities searched with dive teams and even a cadaver dog was brought in to search. Finally, the Daphne Search and Rescue Team arrived with new sonar that changed the game. What seemed like minutes after arriving the team was able to locate Spence’s body and rescuers recovered it providing relief to a waiting family. The new sonar will be housed by the rescue squad. “A big thanks to the Alexander City Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad for their efforts,” Moran said. “They are ultimately the ones that will use the equipment along with the EMA dive team and the Alexander City Fire Department Dive team. It will be used to decrease the time to find a missing loved one.” Area first responders trained with the new equipment to get comfortable with its operation on lake property owned by Harold Cochran Wednesday. The sonar is dropped in the water tethered to equipment in a boat. The equipment can provide a 360-degree image from the sonar of things up to 300 feet away. Operators can mark points of interest that are marked on a map with GPS coordinates for divers to take a look. The equipment should speed searches. It is something Alexander City Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad’s Ken Cowart hopes will happen. “Hopefully it will speed things up,” he said. “You can have it on your screen on one side and the (search) grid on the other side and mark it.” The equipment and rescue squad operating the sonar will travel with it

like they have done for operations in the past across the state and region. Cowart said the Alexander City Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad has travelled to other areas for previous recoveries and they will travel when called upon with the sonar. The new equipment was purchased through a Department of Homeland Security grant with help for matching funds coming from local businesses and organizations. “I want to thank our local contributors that help fund this,” Moran said. “The county commission, City of Alexander City, Russell Lands and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency.” ALEA Secretary Hal Taylor likes the team atmosphere created around the new sonar. recovering a lost loved one. “Thank you for the effort in this “This is a piece of equipment you team enterprise,” Taylor said.
