Police are still investigating the fatal shooting in the Wetumpka Walmart parking lot on Jan. 20. Police were dispatched to the parking lot around 10:45 p.m. for a “shots fired” call. Once there, they found Centell Winston, 42 of Tallassee, dead of a gunshot wound in the driver seat of his vehicle. According to Wetumpka police chief Greg Benton, this was not a random shooting. “This was not random, not a random act,” said Benton. “We believe the vicCLIFF WILLIAMS | THE HERALD tim and the perpetrator knew each other.” Wetumpka Mayor Jerry Willis congratulates Wetumpka Police Department Sgt.

said. “While other kids were at football, basketball and baseball, I would get out of school, go home, do my homework and then drive to Drummond Coal. I would work in the strip pit for six to seven hours a night to save money to buy another car and pay my way through college. I did that for several years. It paid off.” Cooke’s investment working in the coal pits paid for six degrees, including two doctorates from different universities. Cooke now pastors a church and is a district bishop. It’s all following an early investment in his business in Israel. “I have a small business located in Jerusalem,” Cooke said. “We have a world missions program in the Middle East, primarily in Israel where we help Jewish people come back home, where we provide doctors and clinics and dentists and translators. We do all these things.” Cooke has 35 years in the ministry but has worked in the private sector as a house manager, inventory control

manager and property manager for the likes of Fisher Scientific. Immediate Business Systems and Medical Laboratory Associates. “That is what sets me apart from my opponent,” Cooke said. “I have 20 plus years of experience doing the job that the state auditor actually does and that is property management and inventory control. The state auditor looks after all the property bought with your tax money, $500 or more, all across the state. It is a major job, a major undertaking.” Cooke said there are many improvements that could be made to the office of state auditor. “The budget needs to be increased, not because I believe in big government, but because it has been reduced and the auditor can not function like the constitution demands,” Cooke said. Cooke is 61 and said he has no plans to use the office of state auditor to seek higher aspirations. “I’m not interested in anything else. I’m not interested in grandstanding or using this as a stepping stone,” Cooke said. “I’m 61 and by the time I get through eight years, that puts me at 69. It’s not a political zeal to climb. I want to do service for the people of Alabama. I’m not running to be a leader, I’m running to be a servant.”

he wouldn’t be lost. “When your probate judge calls me up and says we got a little issue with this or that, it will not be foregin to me about what they are talking about,” Allen said. “There won’t be any on the job training. I can start day one.” Allen said the business services division of the secretary of state’s office is much like the daily functions of probate judge. Allen said his experiences as the Pike County Probate Judge are useful in this division of the state office. “Every vital document is recorded in the probate office,” Allen said. “One thing we were able to do and I can bring this experience is that we went back and scanned all of our vital documents in Pike County at no extra cost to the taxpayer. We made that available online. You could go look for free.” Allen said this allowed title researchers and attorneys to more easily search important deeds and mortgages for the sale of real estate. “You have to have good records,” Allen said. “You have to turn it around in a timely manner because if you are starting a new LLC, time is money. We want to make sure it’s turned around quickly so people can go to work.” Allen said he is “proud to protect Alabama’s election process. Allen said as a member of Alabama’s House of Representatives voted to make sure there were no drop boxes for voting, no mass mailing of ballots and no internet connection to the ballot machines. “We will always have paper ballots if I’m the next secretary of state,” Allen said. Allen said there is still one measure he would like to see get through the Alabama legislature to further secure Alabama’s elections. “It’s a bill to prohibit ballot harvesting,” Allen said. “That way no one can get paid to help someone that is not their immediate family fill out an application or the ballot. It still allows anybody to help anybody, but they can’t get compensated by some outside group.” Allen faces Jim Ziegler in the June 21 Republican runoff for secretary of state.

atie Britt is headed to a likely victory to fill our U.S. Senate seat in next Tuesday’s June 21 runoff. The 40-year-old, first time candidate garnered an amazing 45 percent of the vote against two major candidates on May 24. She finished far ahead of second place finisher Mo Brooks at 29 percent and third placeholder Mike Durant at 23 percent. She almost beat them without a runoff. Katie Britt carried 62 of the 67 counties in Alabama and barely lost the other five by a slim margin. Katie won overwhelmingly in most of the populous GOP counties in the state. As excepted, she ran very well in her native Wiregrass receiving 63 percent in her home county of Coffee. To the contrary, her opponent in the runoff, second place finisher Mo Brooks, barely carried his home county of Madison by a 39 to 36 margin. In adjacent Limestone, a suburb county of Madison, the vote count was 7,130 for Brooks to 7,100 for Britt – a 30 vote margin. In short, Brooks lost his own congressional district to Katie Britt. It appears that home folks know you best. Those of us who have followed politics in Alabama and especially in southeast Alabama have watched Katie grow up in Enterprise. We have all said she has had governor or senator written all over her. She has been a leader her entire life. She was the leader of everything at Enterprise High School, she was Governor of Girls State, then she was President of the Student Government Association at Alabama.

Clearly, local newspapers win by obtaining the support needed to continue their investments in reporting on local news. But the real winners are the communities that keep their local newspaper. From watching the actions of local government, reporting on the state of local schools, tracking local health trends or providing the latest restaurant reviews and sales information, local newspapers keep a community connected and informed.

Troy University freezing tuition prices again Staff Report TPI Staff For four straight years, Troy University has kept prices level for students, reflecting what the university calls a “commitment to providing an affordable, high-quality education.” “At TROY, the most important thing we do is take care of students,” said Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., Chancellor in a press release. “In a time of economic inflation, when the prices of so many consumer goods are rising, we feel it is our responsibility to keep our tuition as low as possible for our students.” According to a recent press release, Troy University froze tuition rates in fall 2019 and fall 2020. In fall 2021, the university established a new pricing structure that created one tuition rate for all undergraduate students and eliminated a host of enrollment fees, meaning the total price of enrollment stayed the same for most students. For fall 2022, university leaders have once again frozen tuition rates and are retaining the pricing structure which has done away with all mandatory enrollment fees. The updated pricing structure, called the Clear Cost Plan, reflects the university’s commitment

not only to affordability but to disrupting the higher education pricing model. The pricing model within the Clear Cost Plan eliminates a host of fees, including all lab fees, course fees, registration fees, recreation fees and more. It also establishes single tuition rates for undergraduate, graduate and doctoral classes whether online or in-class. “This pricing model stands in contrast to the tuition and fee models in place at many institutions, in which numerous fees are tacked onto the tuition rate,” said Dr. Jim Bookout, Senior Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs and TROY Online. “We have eliminated all of our mandatory enrollment fees that most universities have long adopted as standard pricing strategies. The advantage to students and families is transparency in our pricing. Unlike some institutions, Troy University cannot freeze tuition rates while simultaneously increasing an array of enrollment fees.” Troy University has been recognized as a national model for providing quality, affordable education in a new report from the Partners for College Affordability and Public Trust. The case study, pub-

lished in December 2021, is part of a project focusing on affordability strategies employed by the governing boards of five public universities. For TROY, the study examined the leadership of Chancellor Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr. and the Board of Trustees and the decisions that have made Troy an adaptive and affordable institution focused on meeting the needs of students and the community. “Ongoing efforts to ‘rightsize’ the university have resulted in significant cost savings, enabling university leadership to provide students with an affordable, flexible, and quality education,” the report states. Troy University was founded in 1887 by an act of the Alabama Legislature as a college to train teachers. Today, TROY has grown into an international university with more than 170,000 alumni worldwide. TROY offers more than 200 degree options across its five colleges — the College of Arts and Sciences, the Sorrell College of Business, the College of Communication and Fine Arts, the College of Education and the College of Health and Human Services. Degrees are offered at the associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels.

Historical gasoline prices in Alabama and the national average going back ten years: June 13, 2021: $2.80 per gallon (U.S. Average: $3.07 per gallon) June 13, 2020: $1.79 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.10 per gallon) June 13, 2019: $2.31 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.70 per gallon) June 13, 2018: $2.60 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.90 per gallon) June 13, 2017: $2.04 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.32 per gallon) June 13, 2016: $2.15 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.38 per gallon)

For now, the upward momentum may slow down, but prices are still just one potential supply jolt away from heading even higher,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. “Gasoline demand, while rising seasonally,

is still well below previous records, but remains impressive with prices in all states at record levels. Should the rise in price finally start to slow demand, we could see some breathing room, but for now, it seems like Americans are proving resilient to record highs.” GasBuddy is a voice for gas prices and a source for stationlevel data spanning nearly two decades. Unlike AAA’s once daily survey and the Lundberg Survey, updated once every two weeks based on a fraction of U.S. gasoline stations, GasBuddy’s survey updates 288 times every day from the most diverse list of sources covering nearly 150,000 stations nationwide, the most comprehensive and up to date in the country.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY

Every year on the third Sunday in June, we celebrate all the Dads out there by observing Father’s Day. This year, the holiday falls on Sunday, June 19, and is a day that has been set aside to show the Fathers, Grandfathers, and the other special gentlemen in our lives how much we appreciate all that they have done for us. Many families have traditions for the holiday. Some kids make cards and presents for their Dads and treat them extra special that day. Other families share a special meal. The origins of Father’s Day go back to June 19, 1910, in Spokane, Washington. Sonora Dodd was the daughter of Mr. William Smart. Sonora’s Mother died during childbirth so Mr. Smart was a single Father to six children, as well as a Civil War veteran. Dodd was honored by her Father’s love, hard work, and dedication to raising his family alone, so she campaigned to create the first Father’s Day. The holiday’s popularity caught on, and in 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson made the third Sunday in June an official holiday. President Nixon made it a permanent part of our Country’s annual festivities in 1977, and it has been observed and celebrated ever since.

He also Today such a judge would demonstrated one of Aristotle’s be in danger of removal, as principles of rhetoric; namely, a neighboring county did a speaker who gains the trust last year when a judge was of the audience can better removed from the bench for

dereliction of duty. Another judge in our state was accused of spousal abuse and faced immediate calls for removal. Nevertheless, this judge was firmly in power when a widow came to him for redress. The care of widows is a biblical principle that this man didn’t acknowledge. He ignored her pleas for a long time. Finally he grew weary that she bothered him so often and decided to grant her petition. Jesus used this story to teach two lessons about a God who is so different from the unjust judge. First, he said God is compassionate. Believers are his “elect,” which means they’re chosen by him and

invited into his spiritual family. Because God is compassionate, it’s ludicrous to think he might grow weary when his children come to him with their needs. We cannot imagine God saying, “Here’s Bill again asking me to help his son. I’m so tired of this!” No, a compassionate God delights when we bring our needs to him. Second, he taught the importance of persistence in prayer. The widow came to the judge continually. She didn’t file her complaint and walk away. She refused to give up. One common failure in our prayer life is bringing requests to God and promptly

forgetting them. This might indicate how little importance we attach to them. For this reason many Christians have found a prayer list helpful. It reminds us to pray daily for our needs and the needs of others, and also increases our faith when we see how God has responded to our requests. We’re assured that the Great Eternal Judge both loves us and promises not to disregard our earnest prayers to him. “Reflections” is a weekly faith column written by Michael J.

2022 ELMORE COUNTY SOFTBALL COACH OF THE YEAR:

Claybrook leads Holtville back to regional tournament By DALTON MIDDLETON Sports Editor

ollowing the 2021 spring softball season, Holtville coach Reese Claybrook sat his team down to talk about what needed to be done to get back to Holtville’s standard. Holtville went 7-24 in Claybrook’s first season as head coach in 2021. That wasn’t what Holtville fans had been used to seeing from their softball program. The Lady Bull-

dogs won 41 games in both the 2018 and 2019 season. But for the first time in a long time, Holtville didn’t win double-digit games and went winless in area play. So Claybrook and his team sat down, and they decided if they wanted to get back on track, they would have to work harder than any other team in the state. So they worked, and they worked, and they worked some more. And that hard work started

to pay off this year as Holtville finished 21-16, won two games in the area tournament to clinch a regional berth, and won two games in the regional tournament. Because of the success and turnaround Holtville displayed this season, Claybrook has been named the 2022 Elmore County Softball Coach of the Year. “It really all goes back to the girls,” Claybrook said. “It’s their work ethic and what they were able to do. The product

that we put on the field before wasn’t indicative of our talent or skill level or of our program. We were young this year, but we had some experience at the varsity level. At the end of the day, it was going to be hard work and selflessness that got us to where we needed to be this year.” Holtville’s success was seen extremely early this season, and the Bulldogs matched their win total from a year ago just eight games into the season. Holtville

started its season with a 12-2 overall record, but then fell into a bit of a lull. They lost eight of their next nine games, and were sitting with a 13-10 overall record and were 1-3 in area play on April 19. Then they got back to their winning ways. Holtville won five of its last seven regular season games, including wins over Marbury See CLAYBROOK, Page B3

HOLT

Continued from B1

the year, Holt was an eighth grader and had already slugged seven home runs when the season ended. When she returned for her freshman season last spring in 2021, she said she put a lot of pressure on herself to be better than that. When she did that, she started trying to do too much and swinging at bad pitches. She didn’t have a bad freshman season by any means. She hit .324 with seven home runs and 53 RBIs, but she wasn’t happy with the season and the pressure she put on herself. “I felt like I had more pressure during my freshman year,” Holt said. “I felt like I was older and I needed to be better than the year before. I let that pressure get to me and that made me nervous and more timid in games. I wanted to hit everything and was swinging at everything. This year, I felt like I let the pressure off and just did what I had to do. It’s like I just didn’t feel as much pressure this year. That plays a big difference in the game and that was a really big part in my number improving.” In the circle, Holt was the definition of consistency this season. She allowed three or more runs in only four or her 39 games that she pitched

and Jemison, to finish with a 3-3 record in area play and entered the area tournament as the No. 2 seed just a year after finishing winless in area play. “There was a time in the middle of the year where we had a little skid and seemed to get complacent, but we quickly were able to right that the last three weeks of the regular season,” Claybrook said. “We just had to remember what it took to get there. Winning a lot of times is like a snowball rolling down a hill. It picks up momentum and they began to see what it takes to win. Once you figure out how to do it and figure out what it takes, it’s almost

in this season. On the other hand, she held teams scoreless in 23 of her appearances.There was never a hot streak or cold streak for her in the circle, just pure dominance. At the plate, however, she ran into quite the hot streak in the middle of the season. Entering the month of April, she had seven home runs on the season. On April 1, she hit another one to give herself a new career high with eight. That was the start of the hot streak. Two games later, she hit two home runs in an area game against Stanhope Elmore. Then hit one against Central-Phenix City the next day. The next week, in games against Tallassee, Beluah and Holtville, Holt homered four times to give herself eight in the two week span. That gave her 15, which broke the single-season school record. During that two-week stretch, she recorded 16 hits and only hit under .500 in a game once. “That stretch was funny,” Holt said. “A lot of people were saying I was seeing the ball like a beach ball, and it really seemed like that from my perspective too. Everything that was in the zone, I was going to drive it. The whole stretch felt good and I was seeing everything great. I was never swinging at bad pitches.”

addictive being on that side. It makes you want to continue working harder.” As the No. 2 seed in the area tournament, Holtville beat Marbury twice, 7-4 and 11-7, to clinch a spot in the championship game. They lost to Elmore County in the championship, but did enough to clinch a spot in the regional tournament. It was in the regional tournament where Holtville really was able to prove they belonged. In the opening game, Holtville upset Area 8’s No. 1 seed, Shelby County, 10-6. After losing to Tallassee and falling into the loser’s bracket, Holtville fought off elimination for one more game by beating Central of Clay County, 5-3. They eventually were

eliminated by Brewbaker Tech in the 5A central regional semifinals, but they showed they could compete with the best teams in the region. And they did so with only starting two upperclassmen. Most of Holtville’s team consisted of freshmen, sophomores and a few eighth graders. “I had some people tell me that we were playing ahead of schedule, but I just told them ‘No, we’re just finally playing up to our potential,’” Claybrook said. “We are right where we belong to be. May we have snuck up on a few teams? Possibly. But we knew what we were capable of. And I was so excited that the girls were able to go out there and show everyone the team that they were. They showed who we were as a program.”

Reaching more than 22,000 households in Tallapoosa and Elmore counties The Dadeville Record

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) Patience is the antidote to anger. Remember this when dealing with parents and bosses today, because you might want to lash out. However, this can often lead to regret. (“Did I just say that?”) Instead, be patient and let things cool down. Tonight: Follow the rules. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today, because these are hot buttons, and today is a poor day to discuss anything touchy. Be smart and give these situations a wide berth. Instead, focus on moneymaking ideas, cash flow and possessions. Tonight: Travel interruptions. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) With Mercury and the Sun in your sign now, you’re talkative and convincing! Nevertheless, disputes with others about shared property, bills, debt and banking issues could arise. Steer clear of this and focus on physical athletics and fun competition. Tonight: Check banking details. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Tread carefully today, because disputes with others, especially authority figures, could ruin your day. Who wants this? Not you. You want to have a positive, happy day. Therefore, choose positive options. Don’t get involved in arguments. Don’t be critical of others. Tonight: Someone surprises you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Don’t get your belly in a rash today arguing with someone at work or about religion, politics or race, because this is a bad day for conflict, and things could get nasty. Wait for another day to state your case. (There are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.) Tonight: Check your health and pets. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Parents must be patient with their kids today, and romantic partners must be patient with each other. Sports colleagues also will be tempted to fight. This is because today the Moon is at odds with fiery Mars, which makes people irritable, rash and hasty. Zip thy lip! Tonight: Social plans change.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Domestic conflicts and arguments at home or with family members are likely today. Knowing this ahead of time, you can avoid nasty confrontations. Don’t even go there. Instead, focus on learning something new today. Perhaps you can make travel plans for the future. Tonight: Patience at home. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Steer clear of friction and nasty arguments related to your work, a pet or something to do with your health, because these kinds of disputes will arise today. Fortunately, with Venus opposite your sign, you will charm everyone. Tonight: Avoid accidents. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Arguments about money or possessions might take place today with your kids or a romantic partner. But this is just a temporary dark cloud on your horizon. Don’t give in to an urge to engage in disputes or be quick with a nasty retort. Take the high road. Tonight: Guard your assets. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today the Moon is in your sign, which will always heighten your emotions. However, it will slightly increase your good luck, so go with that. Be smart and avoid arguments with family and relatives. Fortunately, relations with your kids are warm and friendly. Tonight: Sudden changes. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today you will prefer keeping a low profile, even though you might be unhappy about something. In fact, your frustration might be that you are unhappy but you can’t speak up. (The worst!) Today your best option is to go along to get a lot. Tonight: Restless feelings. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might find yourself at odds with a friend or a member of a group today, which is unfortunate, because you want to get along with these people. Fortunately, Venus will save you by sweetening your words and helping you see a winwin solution (especially about finances or something you own). Tonight: Surprise from a friend!

Eclectic Public Library kicks off summer reading program Staff Report TPI Staff The Eclectic Public Library started this year’s summer reading program with an afternoon of fun at The Eclectic Warehouse. Nearly 40 children attended the first day of the month-long program on Tuesday, June 7. They met Betty Striker and her therapy miniature horse. The fun days are intended to encourage children in the area to continue reading throughout the summer, while school isn’t in session. The children participated in an arts and crafts portion and were able to take home a mermaid. They were served refreshments and a snow cone. The children were also given free books to take with them. The following programs scheduled are a fishing day with the Elmore County High School fishing team, a “Roll. Throw & Go” day and a paddling day. The summer reading program event days are scheduled every Tuesday in June at 2 p.m. at The Eclectic Warehouse. For more COURTESY OF JACKIE STEARNS information, contact the library at 334-639-4727.
