Lincoln’s life Russian meteorite spurs interest in Bishopville’s own BY RANDY BURNS Special to The Item BISHOPVILLE — Last week’s meteor explosion over Russia’s Ural Mountains injured more than 1,000 people and has sparked discussion and a greater interest in meteorites throughout the world. South Carolina Cotton Museum Director Janson Cox spends most of his time talking about cotton, but he also has been engaging visitors with talk of meteorites. “I hope this will create a greater interest in space,” Cox said. “People don’t realize that there is a tremendous amount of debris, materials and rocks floating in space. Much of it never comes to earth, and a lot that does is never found.” And any talk about meteorites will surely find Cox showing off the Bishopville meteorite, one of only six meteorites to have been found in South Carolina. In addition to the hundreds of cotton-related items on display, the museum is also home to a piece of the Bishopville meteorite that detonated over Wisacky in 1843. In August 2003, Cox bought a piece of the meteorite on eBay from a man in Arizona at a cost of only $9. Cox credits Bishopville businessman Robert Peoples, who is on the museum’s board of directors, for

Mystery ‘booms’ actually part of military training BY BRADEN BUNCH BBunch@theitem.com After much speculation throughout the community, military training at the McCrady National Guard Training Center in Eastover was the reason for the series of small booms reported in Sumter and the surrounding areas on Wednesday and Thursday. “That was just expending ordnance at McCrady,” said Maj. Cindy King with the South Carolina National Guard. “They’re finished, and in the future we will be sure to notify the public if there’s going to be any significant noise (so) as to not cause them any unnecessary concern.” The lack of an explanation for a few days left many in Sumter and surrounding areas trying to determine what had happened. “We can’t tell you what it was, because we don’t know,” said Shaw Air Force Base spokesman Rob Sexton, adding that there weren’t any flight operations or ordnance activity at Poinsett Electronic Combat Range to which the sounds could have been attributed. “We weren’t doing anything at all that could have

2 sentenced on drug charges in separate incidents BY ROBERT J. BAKER bbaker@theitem.com Lionel S. Bradley was not at the Sumter County Courthouse on Wednesday morning to hear his name yelled from its steps three times. Instead, the 32-yearold Sumter resident showed up later that afternoon, long after 3rd Circuit Assistant Solicitor Bronwyn K. McElveen had called four witnesses before a jury in her case against Bradley for trafficking crack cocaine, second offense; possession of marijuana, second offense; and distribution of crack cocaine, second offense. “It is only one of the

things we have to do according to the law,” McElveen said of the practice of yelling a defendant’s name three times before he or she can be tried in absence. McElveen did not need her fifth witness, a drug analyst from the State Law Enforcement Division, to convict Bradley, however. Instead, Bradley bowed out of the trial when he finally appeared and pleaded guilty before 3rd Circuit Judge W. Jeffrey Young. Young sentenced Bradley to 15 years altogether for the drug charges, along with an additional charge of failure to register as a sex offender, second offense.

Bradley was arrested Sept. 19, 2011, at Friendship Apartments in Sumter after police saw him and another man sitting in a Dodge Charger with its console and dashboard removed. “The suspect got out and walked quickly to Apt. 14,” McElveen said in her opening statement to a jury Wednesday morning. “(Police) then observed Bradley, through open blinds and in plain view, put what

appeared to be plastic bags underneath a couch cushion.” Police later smelled marijuana coming from the Charger and asked to speak with Bradley, who reportedly began swearing at and arguing with officers. Arrested initially for public disorderly conduct, Bradley’s more serious charges came after the apartment’s tenant gave consent to search the unit. “The drugs were found right where Bradley had put those bags,” McElveen said. “Under the couch cushion, he had 13.2 grams of crack cocaine and four grams of marijuana.” Young had also sen-

weapon during a violent crime and possession of drug paraphernalia. Reports said deputies discovered 226 grams of powdered cocaine valued at $22,600, 21 grams of crack cocaine valued at $4,200 and 14 grams of marijuana valued at $140 inside the suspect’s home. Deputies also reported finding cash totaling $17,946, a stolen Ruger .45-caliber pistol and drug paraphernalia used to manufacture crack cocaine. Sheriff Anthony Dennis said at the time that Vaughn’s arrest came after a three-month investigation. Reach Robert J. Baker at (803) 774-1211.

State spending plan including Medicaid initiative advances

BY JADE ANDERSON janderson@theitem.com Thomas Sumter Academy is about to wrap up its 32nd annual drive to raise money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. This year’s fundraiser has been especially touching because the honor patient is one of the littlest Generals. In January, 3-year-old Faye Gandhi was diagnosed with neuroblastoma cancer. “She’s wonderful,” said Renée Langston, one of her teachers. “She’s just a sweet girl. She is a quiet little girl who never got in trouble. She’s smart (and) very creative. Her favorite center is drawing.” Faye’s classmates understand she is sick, Langston said, and the class prays for Faye every morning. “It brings it home,” said Debbie Nix, head of Thomas Sumter. “The Thomas Sumter family is very close, and this is probably the first time one of our students was diagnosed with cancer.” It makes it more real, especially for the younger children, she said, because they understand Faye will not return to school this year. “It’s one of our very own,” said Lori Stokes, sponsor for Executive Student Council. “We hate that for the family and send them lots of prayers. Hopefully, she’ll be healed.”

tenced Jerome Antonine Vaughn, 32, to 15 years for similar charges in an unrelated incident from 2012 on Tuesday at the courthouse. Vaughn, known as “Jelly,” was arrested in late August 2012 after the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office found drugs totaling more than $26,000 and more than $17,000 in cash and a handgun in his Little John Lane home. Vaughn was charged with two counts of trafficking crack cocaine, two counts of trafficking cocaine, manufacturing crack cocaine, possession of marijuana, possession of a stolen firearm, possession of a

Michal Hoge, right, Thomas Sumter Academy junior, prepares Joseph Prewitt, senior, to “Knock Out Leukemia,” the theme for this year’s Leukemia Campaign. This is the 32nd year the Dalzell school has raised money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

The campaign kicked off Feb. 5 with assemblies, and it runs through the end of the month. This year’s theme is Knock Out Leukemia. It was introduced with film-like flair during the lower school assembly. “In the middle of the ring, our opponent,” shouts Drake McCormick, vice president of the Executive Student Council. “Invading the bodies of more than 12,000 children under the age of 21 every year and causing more deaths than any other cancer among children and young adults under 20, the dreaded, the hated, the conquerable, Leukemia. In this corner, the Champion. Working for 32 years and raising close to $400,000, the one, the only, TSA General.” Senior Joseph Prewitt then came out on the stage like Rocky and proceeded to “Knock Out Leukemia.” “We love the theme,” Stokes said. “I don’t think Rocky ever goes out of style, (and) it works fantastically for this project. Rocky is about the underdog coming out, fighting and winning.” As of Thursday morning, the school had raised $9,597 towards the goal of $200,000. The school has offered a number of incentives, such as an ice cream party or pizza party, extra recess and even a $100 bill to en-

courage students to raise and donate money. Teachers could also purchase “dress down” days, and the school has been selling “Knock Out Leukemia” T-shirts. “We have some great incentives,” McCormick said. “I hope you guys are ready for a lot of fun, but let’s remember why we are here. Together we can reach our goal and Knock Out Leukemia.” The school started these campaigns in 1982. “When you do something 32 times, sometimes you get complacent,” Nix said. “With Generals, it’s exactly the opposite. We identify ourselves with this philanthropic project, (and) every year we are eager to do it. We say often that when the cure for leukemia is found, the Generals at Thomas Sumter Academy will have an inward pride because we know we helped.” On March 1, the school will hold an aerial/powderpuff football and a dodge ball tournament starting at 12:30 p.m. These events are open to the public, but since they take place during the school day, individuals will need to go to the front office and obtain a visitor’s pass.

COLUMBIA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An Army sergeant based in South Carolina has filed a federal lawsuit accusing a mortgage company of not obeying a law that requires limits on interest rates for active-duty members of the military. Raymond Wray is a staff sergeant based at Fort Jackson in Columbia, according to a lawsuit filed late last year in federal court in South Carolina. In his initial filing, Wray says he bought a house in North Carolina in 1997, taking out a $68,000 mortgage at a 12.99 percent interest rate. When Wray enlisted in the U.S. Army two years later, he says he asked CitiMortgage, which is based in Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Fallon, Mo., and had bought his loan, to lower his rate because of his military service. But Wray says CitiMortgage never fully honored his request, something he says violated the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, which requires mortgages for military members to be capped at 6 percent while theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on active duty and for one additional year thereafter. Intended to give military members some relief from financial pressures while serving on active duty, the federal law covers mortgages incurred even before someone joins the military, according to attorneys for Wray. Instead of lowering his rate, Wray says CitiMortgage used what it called a subsidy program, under which the company agreed to make up the difference between Wrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rate of 12.99 and the 6 percent rate.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To say voter fraud ‘does not exist’ is a lie I get up every morning, make coffee, sit down to the computer and read The Item. The first area I go to is the Letters to the Editor section. The opinions of the letter writers are both informative and entertaining. However, I have a question for Mr. Baten. In your letter of Feb. 21, you mentioned “passage of voter ID bills to prevent voter fraud that does not exist.” The part that says “does not exist” caught my eye. Mr. Baten, is this your opinion or is that a fact? I did some ‘surfing’... voter fraud... and came up with literally thousands of articles pertaining to voter fraud. Ballot stuffing, dead people registered, electronic machines corrupted, etc., etc. I didn’t see a single article that indicated that voter fraud “did not exist” Depending on which article you read, the numbers are different, but to flat out say that voter fraud “does not exist” is a blatant lie. Remember ACORN? Mr. Baten, I support voter ID, I also support background checks for weapons. I may be accused of being a “yahoo,” you may think I’m a hypocrite, but the one thing I am proud to say is: I am not a Democrat. DENNIS E. VICKERS Wedgefield

Comparing the weights of constitutional rights In response to a Letter to the Editor by Sumter County Councilman Eugene Baten published on Feb. 21: You asked “When is one person’s constitutional right more important than another person’s constitutional right?” As you yourself said, “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” My answer to your question is when that right is the one that defends the rest of our rights through its very existence and meaning, which is stated clearly in the Second Amendment. You said, “The Second Amendment says ‘the right of people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.’ The

15th Amendment says ‘the right of citizens to vote shall not be denied or abridged.’ Is the right of people to own guns more important than the right of citizens to vote?” Mr. Baten, what do you think the Second Amendment right was put there for? It was not put there to protect hunting, nor even sport shooting, it was put there to protect the citizenry from politicians, like yourself, who are more concerned with what they want, instead of what the citizens want. When you control the firearms, you control the voting power of the people. Just ask a Cuban refugee sometime about that one. You asked, “...why, during the last presidential election in November 2012, were there reductions in early voting days, long lines, purging of voting records, intimidation at the polls and the passage of voter ID bills to prevent voter fraud that does not exist.” There have always been long lines at the polls in general elections, 2012 was no exception. As for your question on voter fraud. Some voter fraud obviously does exist, as the Democratic candidate running for president received more votes in one Ohio precinct than there were registered voters in that precinct, Democrat and Republican put together. Why were almost all of the Republican candidates removed from the ballots, leaving only one choice, Democrat, for the office? JOE E. MOORE Jr. Dalzell

Gun owners, voting deadlines and voter fraud I’m writing in reply to the letter of Eugene Baten on Thursday, Feb. 21. I first question why someone in Mr. Baten’s position would use his job title in a comment to the newspaper. Furthermore why would he use said title to call people he is supposed

to represent hypocrites. By using that title, he gives the subtle suggestion that this is the official view of his office and not simply his misguided thoughts on a matter that is clearly beyond his pay grade. Mr. Baten asks, “Is the right of people to own guns more important than the right of citizens to vote? If not, then why, during the last presidential election, in November 2012, were there reductions in early voting days, long lines, purging of voting records, intimidation at the polls and the passage of voter ID bills to prevent voter fraud that does not exist.” Let’s compare voting and gun ownership. Yes, voting days were reduced. Nowhere in the constitution does it say I may have all year to vote. That is decided by the state. In comparison the state limits the number of guns, and now is attempting to limit the amount of ammo I can buy in a 30-day period. How are these two things any different? Long lines. Yes that is a result of both shortening the voting times, but also inefficiency by those the government hired to run the voting process. Have you seen the lines to buy ammo or an ARstyle rifle? There is a waiting list for such rifles; this too was caused by the government trying to put restraints on our rights. Purging of voter records. This is supposed to be done to be compliance with the law. It is no different than putting a mark on someone’s record to say they cannot own a firearm. I’m sure the chairman does not want a convicted killer getting a firearm because he passed a background check because his crime was never added to the database. In similarity I do not want someone who is dead or in prison to be voting in the next election. JOHN GAYDOS Wedgefield

THE ITEM

State wants to discuss food stamp changes with feds BY MEG KINNARD Associated Press Writer COLUMBIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; In the hope that restricting what people can buy with food stamps will cut down on obesity, South Carolina officials on Thursday said they had asked the federal agency that administers the program to start discussing ways to change it. Currently, about 878,000 people in South Carolina receive about $1.4 billion in benefits each year through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Department of Social Services director Lillian Koller told participants at an obesity meeting in Columbia. That program is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and Koller said she had written to federal officials to ask them for a conversation about ways to change how the program is used in South Carolina. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of federal dollars in our state,â&#x20AC;? Koller said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to make it work for South Carolinians, to help us make better choices and have lots and lots of healthy food options.â&#x20AC;? Because SNAP is a federal program, Koller would need USDA permission to make any changes to it or place restrictions on purchases made here. Currently, alcohol and tobacco products are the only prohibited items, but Koller said she planned to ask the federal government for a waiver to cut the list of allowed items in South Carolina to healthy purchases. Starting next month, a series of meetings will be held across the state to solicit public input on how the program should be changed. Gov. Nikki Haley and Department of Health and Environmental Control director Catherine Templeton were also part of the announcement, which is the latest in a series of efforts to address obesity. Last week, she and Koller unveiled the ABC Grow Healthy program, which falls under a DSS initiative that pays for low-income families to

get care for kids through age 12 while the parents work or go to school or job training. ABC Grow Healthy uses $200,000 in federal funding to help young children learn how to make good food choices and enjoy exercise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;More than cancer, heart disease, diabetes, stroke or any other disease in this state, obesity kills the most South Carolinians,â&#x20AC;? said Templeton, who previously told The Associated Press she supports restricting SNAP benefits to essentially the same

list of milk, grains and fresh fruits and vegetables that her agency uses for a benefit program for women and children. At least 30 percent of South Carolina adults are considered obese, according to a 2011 survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That figure ties the state with Indiana for the seventhhighest obesity rate in the nation, and officials said the state is forecast to have the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth-highest obesity rate by 2030.

South Carolina Cotton Museum Director Janson Cox, left, shows off the Bishopville meteorite to Bishopvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lemuel Bounds. A piece of the Bishopville meteorite that landed near Wisacky in 1843 was acquired by the museum 10 years ago on eBay.

Bishopvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bill Baskin, a regular visitor at the museum and a Bishopville native, said old-timers often talked about meteorites. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember people talking about the Bishopville meteorite found in 1843,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I also have a recollection of old-timers talking about a meteorite that landed on (S.C.) 441 where the old racetrack used to be. This was supposed to have happened long before the 1843 meteorite.â&#x20AC;? Most space rocks that hit the earth are actually dust. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a tremendous amount of dust, rock and debris out in space,â&#x20AC;? said Alex Mowery, president of the Midlands Astronomy Club. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of it never survives re-entry. It burns up. The ones that do survive tend to have a heavy metal and iron content. So, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find

meteorites are extremely heavy.â&#x20AC;? Mowery said he expects astronomy club members will have plenty to say about the Russian meteor when the club meets at 7:30 p.m. on the first Thursday of March at the ETV Telecommunications Center on 1101 George Rogers Boulevard in Columbia. According to the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, only six meteorites have been found in South Carolina. More than 1,500 meteorites

have officially landed in the U.S. Cox said many more land than are ever found. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The meteor that hit Russia was rare, and then again it was not so rare,â&#x20AC;? Mowery said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is estimated that typically one meteor a day will survive re-entry

and land on earth. But we never hear about them because they land in the ocean or in a unpopulated area. So it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so rare that a meteor of that size hit the earth, but what is rare is that it usually doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t land in a populated area.â&#x20AC;?

ROTARY from Page A1 continued to pour in Thursday. Police Chief Russell Roark said Stiles has a personality that makes it easy for him to interact with members of the community. “It helps when you can talk to someone and make them feel calm and at ease with you, and Ben can do that,” Roark said. That skill came in handy on Sept. 18, 2012, when Stiles was called to attend to a construction worker who had sliced his neck with an industrial saw. “He was able to keep the man calm and his co-workers calm until he could be treated,” the chief said. Roark praised Stiles, who has emergency medical service training, for tending to the man despite the danger of being exposed to bloodborne pathogens. “Ben pushed his own safety to the side, and I appreciate it,” Roark said. Sheriff Anthony Dennis credited Tassone with helping stop the flow of crime through Sumter County as part of the sheriff’s K-9 unit and the Interdiction Team on Interstate 95. “The I-95 Interdiction Team has an impact on criminal enterprises that come into Sumter,” Dennis said. “Sgt. Tassone has seized several pounds of drugs with a street value of $500,000 and more than $1 million in cash.”

Both men were hailed by the state director of the Department of Public Safety, who spoke as the dinner’s featured speaker. Leroy Smith told the Rotary his department focuses on relationships with local law enforcement. “Partnerships are integral to everything we do,” Smith said, referencing the arrest earlier this week of a hit-andrun driver who killed a woman in Kingstree. “Thanks to our work with SLED and local law enforcement ... that driver is now sitting in the county jail.” Smith’s goal since being appointed to the job in August 2011 has been to improve officer performance. After a string of deadly mass shootings last year, Public Safety has trained 139 law enforcement officers in handling an activeshooter scenario, and when the state saw only one traffic fatality over Labor Day weekend last year, he set a goal of having zero fatalities on South Carolina roadways. “Why can’t we have a zero-fatality weekend?” he said. “Why can’t every weekend be zero fatality, and then why can’t we have zero fatalities the rest of the week?” That’s a goal Smith wants to see reached across the state, “community by community.”

Al-Qaida tipsheet on avoiding drones found TIMBUKTU, Mali (AP) — One of the last things the bearded fighters did before leaving this city was to drive to the market where traders lay their carpets out in the sand. The al-Qaida extremists bypassed the brightly colored, high-end synthetic floor coverings and stopped their pickup truck in front of a man selling more modest mats woven from desert grass, priced at $1.40 apiece. There they bought two bales of 25 mats each and asked him to bundle them on top of the car, along with a stack of sticks. “It’s the first time someone has bought such a large amount,” said the mat seller, Leitny Cisse al-Djoumat. “They didn’t explain why they wanted so many.” Military officials can tell why: The fighters are stretching the mats across the tops of their

cars on poles to form natural carports, so that drones cannot detect them from the air. The instruction to camouflage cars is one of 22 tips on how to avoid drones, listed on a document left behind by the Islamic extremists as they fled northern Mali from a French military intervention last month. A Xeroxed copy of the document, which was first published on a jihadist forum two years ago, was found by The Associated Press in a manila envelope on the floor of a building here occupied by al-Qaida of the Islamic Maghreb. The tipsheet reflects how al-Qaida’s chapter in North Africa anticipated a military intervention that would make use of drones, as the battleground in the war on terror worldwide is shifting from boots on the ground to unmanned planes in the air.

Trio earns All-State selections BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS jdriggers@theitem.com

“They got in contact with me a few weeks ago,” Andrews said of Catawba. “I’m looking forward to this opportunity. The fact that it is a Division II school (a member of the South Atlantic Conference) is cool. I’m going to work hard and learn and do my best to become a starter.” Andrews graded out at 83 percent with 64 knockdown blocks as an offensive tackle for the Gators. Catawba is looking to use Andrews as a center, according to Lakewood head coach Perry Parks. “What’s holding Clifton back (in college recruiting) is his size,” Parks said. “He’s not going to be 6(-foot)-2(-inches)

For Crestwood High School senior Daniquia Lewis and Sumter High senior Auntrell Holloway, their recent All-State selections represent the culmination of not only a great final high school basketball season, but a career as well. For Sumter freshman Christian Hithe, it likely marks just the beginning. Hithe, Holloway and Lewis were chosen by the South Carolina Basketball Coaches Association as some of the top players in the state. HITHE Lewis’ selection comes on the heels of being chosen as a McDonald’s AllAmerican nominee as HOLLOWAY well. Though she fell short of that honor, she was still excited by the All-State selection. “It’s a great LEWIS honor,” Lewis said. “I’ve worked hard and it’s something to be proud of. I enjoy playing this game. and I wanted to help my team get to this point.” Lewis has done a lot in helping lead the Lady Knights to a Region VI-3A title and a lower state championship game matchup against Orangeburg-Wilkinson on Saturday. The Crestwood point guard leads the team with an 18 points-per-game average to go along with four rebounds and six assists per contest as well. “I felt like after the (CresCom Bank Invitational Tournament), if I didn’t step up my game, it wasn’t going to be a long season (in number of games),” Lewis said. “I just wanted to be more aggressive in all aspects of the game – especially on defense. I concentrated on being an allaround player.” While Lewis has long been a leader on for the Lady Knights, Holloway believes he stepped into that role this season for the Gamecocks en route to their 4A lower state title game berth tonight. “I know I was a starter last year, but I didn’t think it was my turn to fill any

Pitching key to Gamecocks’ future success this season BY DARRYL SLATER postandcourier.com COLUMBIA — When Carolina Stadium’s bullpen door swung open last Friday afternoon, the difference was immediately obvious. Instead of the bouncy instrumental theme song to “The Price Is Right,” the stadium speakers played the powerful guitar riffs and Scott Weiland’s growling vocals from the Stone Temple Pilots’ “Dead & Bloated.” Not that Tyler Webb, the new South HOLBROOK Carolina closer who emerged from the bullpen, is any more aggressive than his predecessor, Matt Price.

Harvick, Kyle Busch win Daytona 500 duels BY JENNA FRYER The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Perfect so far at Speedweeks, Kevin Harvick has positioned himself as the favorite to win the Daytona 500. HARVICK It’s the last label he wanted. “We like to be the lame-duck underdog. That’s what we’re shoot-

ing for,” Harvick said. Harvick won the first Daytona 500 qualifying race on Thursday to make it 2 for 2 at Daytona International Speedway, where he also won an exhibition race last weekend. It positions KYLE BUSCH Harvick, the 2007 Daytona 500 winner, as a top contender in Sunday’s season-opening “Great American Race.”

It comes at a time when Harvick has found a balance in his life with the addition of son, Keelan, who was born last July, and as he heads into his final season with Richard Childress Racing. Harvick has already decided to move to Stewart-Haas Racing in 2014. “We’ve been fortunate to win the first two races of Speedweeks. We’ve just got to keep a level head on our shoulders, not get too high over what we’ve done,

we definitely have the car and team to be in contention to do that.” Kyle Busch won the

second duel to give Toyota its first victory of Speedweeks and snap Chevrolet’s dominance. Harvick took the new Chevrolet SS to Victory Lane twice, and Danica Patrick put it on the Daytona 500 pole in time trials. Busch held off Kasey Kahne, in a Chevrolet, and learned the driver out front is in the strongest position. “It’s hard to pass the leader,” said Busch. SEE DAYTONA, PAGE B3

SCOREBOARD

SUMTER from Page B1 “We’re going to have to do a good job of keeping them in front of us,” said Fuller, whose team will bring an 18-10 record into the game. “That being said, we’re going to have to pick them up a little deeper than we normally would because of their ability to shoot from outside. “We need to limit them to one shot and make sure we get the ball out in transition.” Gators head coach Blake Hall, while not seeing Sumter play in person, is impressed by what he’s seen on film. “They certainly look like a very good team,” Hall said of Sumter. “They are very athletic, they play hard and they are well-coached. They are what you expect to see from teams that make it this far.” Hall is in his first year as head coach at Goose Creek and just his second year as a high school head coach. Last year he led North Charleston to the 2A state title. Hall said he is more concerned about what his team does today than what Sumter might do. “We’re just going to worry about the things we try to do,” Hall said. “Our goal is to be a better team than we were today; if we win that’s great, and if we lose then the better team won.” Fuller is in his third year as Sumter’s head coach. He’s taken a team that had one returning starter from last year’s team that finished third in Region VI and was bounced in the first round of the state playoffs to a region crown and a game away from playing for a state title. Sumter’s leading scorer is Sonny Butler, who is averaging 11 points a game. However, there are four players averaging between 6.7 points and 7.8 points. All-State selection Auntrell Holloway, the lone returning starter, is averaging 7.8 points and 6.3 rebounds. Wing Brandon Parker is averaging 7.7 points, point guard Duane Kyles is averaging 7.2 and post player Anthony Moses averaged 6.7. Sumter has used betwen 10 and 12 players on a regular basis throughout the season. The 6-foot-6-inch Holloway and the 6-5 Moses will give Sumter a decided advantage in the low post. Goose Creek uses two guards and two smaller wings in its starting lineup, according to Fuller. “We’re definitely going to try and get the ball into the low post,” Fuller said. “What they do though is collapse around the post players quickly when the ball gets down low. What they try to do is make you try and beat them shooting 3s.”We’re going to have to make sure that we make good decisions.”

LAKEWOOD from Page B1 or 6-3; he’s 5-11. They’re looking at him as a center, and we’re already working with him on his footwork.” The new head coach at Catawba, Curtis Walker, was an assistant coach at Coastal Carolina when Parks played there. “They’ll take care of him,’ Parks said of Walker and Catawba. Way won’t be going to a typical college;

This just really appealed to me.” Parks said Way has a 3.4 grade point average at Lakewood, and if he can maintain that at Newport News, he will have the opportunity to get in a Master’s program at Old Dominion University in

ALL-STATE from Page B1 kind of leadership role,” Holloway said. “But this year I wanted to do whatever the team needed me to. If they needed me to score, I scored. If they needed me to rebound, then I rebounded. Holloway did both, averaging approximately 7.8 points and 6.3 rebounds as SHS captured the Region VI crown prior to its postseason run. “It’s an honor to be All-State,” Holloway said. “I made the effort

to have a bigger role on this team. Now I’m being recognized across the state. It’s been a good year.” It was a good year for the Lady Gamecocks as well as they made their way to the third round of the 4A playoffs – and Hithe was a big part of that run. The freshman averaged 11.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.9 steals and 1.6 assists for Sumter, who also won the Region VI title. “I was nervous at the start of

Virginia. “That really interested him a lot,” Parks said. Way had 41 tackles, an interception and broke up four passes for the Gators this past season. Parks said the Newport News coaches like Way’s height — 6-0 — and his speed — 4.5 seconds in the 40-yard dash. He played safety at Lakewood, but Newport is looking to use him as a cornerback, Parks said.

the season,” Hithe said. “I didn’t really know my role and I didn’t really play my game. As the season went on, I felt more comfortable and I just played a lot better. I was able to do what the coaches asked and helped my team win.” The high honor of being named All-State in her ninthgrade year was a little hard to take in, Hithe admitted. “I know my coaches told me that I should feel really proud,” Hithe said. “It’s not really something I thought about at all. I’m honored, but also don’t really know what to feel.”

Patrick hangs on to Daytona pole after safe run BY DAN GELSTON The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Her car led the field to green, then Danica Patrick never gave herself a chance to race for the win at Daytona. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s saving that all-out push for the Daytona 500. Patrick had an easy choice in her first race since winning the pole for â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Great American Race.â&#x20AC;? She played it safe and stayed back Thursday, keeping her pole position for the Daytona 500. PATRICK All Patrick needed to do was keep her car intact to preserve the top spot for Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daytona 500. She started on the pole for the first 150-mile Budweiser Duel before she faded into the field and finished 17th out of 23 cars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I suppose thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sense of reliefâ&#x20AC;? she kept the pole, Patrick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But at the same point in time, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a race car driver, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fun to have to protect and be careful and be cautious and drop back at times.â&#x20AC;? Patrick was nowhere near the four-lap sprint to the finish that saw Kevin Harvick hold off Greg Biffle for the win. Patrick became the first woman in history to win a pole in NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sprint Cup series. Team owner Gene Haas even suggested â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps, jokingly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that Patrick

THE ITEM

DAYTONA from Page B1 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stay out front. When you get out front, you can hold everyone off.â&#x20AC;? Kahne, who settled for second, said timing will be critical. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think waiting â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;til the last lap is the ticket anymore,â&#x20AC;? Kahne said. Although heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seen Harvick dominate for two races now, Kahne believes drivers are still figuring out NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Gen-6 car, the right strategy for Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and watching Harvick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Kevin looks really good. I always think Kevin is one of the guys to beat when we come to Daytona,â&#x20AC;? Kahne said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got this place figured out. I think he can be beat, yeah. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a few of us in the second race who had really good cars, and I could move around really well, similar to what Harvick did in the first race.â&#x20AC;? In the first race, Harvick held off Greg Biffle over a four-lap sprint to win his 150-mile duel, with the second race held later Thursday afternoon. Harvick and Biffle also went 1-2 in last Saturday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exhibition race. The starting field for the Daytona 500 is set by the results from the pair of 60-lap qualifiers, but Patrick held onto the pole by running a safe race in the first qualifier. The first woman to win a pole at NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top level, Patrick earned the top start-

start and park after two laps and save the car. Not a chance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really just wanted to run probably 10 or 15 laps and be in the pack, be in front,â&#x20AC;? crew chief Tony Gibson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we got into a stalemate, we fell back, the inside line wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t moving and it was just time to get out.â&#x20AC;? No driver has won the Daytona 500 from the pole since Dale Jarrett in 2000. She canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rest easy yet, not with Cup practices Friday and Saturday, where any wreck could send her to the back of the field. But she passed the first major of Speedweeks since she thrust herself and NASCAR into the national spotlight with a history-making run at the pole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My nerves will be calmed down a little bit Saturday afternoon when practice is over and our carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in one piece,â&#x20AC;? Gibson said. Her debrief was, well, brief. Her No. 10 Chevrolet had a tachometer issue and she enjoyed taking the outside lane. Other than those tidbits, Patrick had little analysis for her mundane performance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hate coming to the end like that and just lagging back,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fun, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also really ignorant to go drive up into the pack and be part of an accident for absolutely no reason. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really not going to learn much there.â&#x20AC;? Patrick knows all about how miserable it can be driving in the back of the field, with no serious chance for the checkered flag.

ing spot in time trials last weekend. She started first in the first qualifier, raced a bit early, then faded back to run a conservative race and ensure sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll start first in the 500. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hate coming to the end like that and just lagging back,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fun.

He was also blackflagged in the exhibition race when his window net fell off. Hamlin said the accident was a product of drivers trying to learn the nuances of NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Gen-6 car. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just shows you that any kind of bad aero position you put yourself in, your car can be vulnerable,â&#x20AC;? said Hamlin, who was running in the high line when he inched into Edwardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; space down low.

NBA trade deadline features only minor moves BY BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The only trade involving Dwight Howard came last summer. The potent scorers that moved did so long ago. There was no eyecatching activity left for deadline day, resulting in minor deals Thursday to the disappointment of those hoping for a frenzy. Josh Smith stayed put and the Boston Celticsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; core stayed together, leaving J.J. Redick, dealt to Milwaukee, as the biggest name to be traded. There were nine moves, nothing approaching a blockbuster and none to jumpstart the Lakers. Players such as James Harden and Rudy Gay were traded far before the deadline, but with teams perhaps fearful of new penalties for the biggest spenders, Thursday was mostly quiet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen fewer trade deadline deals, ever,â&#x20AC;? said

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Orlandoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s J.J. Redick (7), center Gustavo Ayon and reserve point guard Ish Smithv were traded to Milwaukee in exchange for guards Doron Lamb and Beno Udrih as well as forward Tobias Harris. The NBA didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any blockbuster names move on Thursday at the trading deadline.

Houston general manager Daryl Morey, who completed two trades Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a one-year blip.â&#x20AC;? The Atlanta Hawks held onto Smith, and Utah kept both Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson on a day when much attention was focused on both situations, since those players have value and could leave their teams this summer as free agents. The long-shot deals

never materialized. Howard remained in Los Angeles, just what Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak repeatedly said would happen. Howardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unhappiness and struggles since he was acquired from Orlando last summer fueled speculation that the Lakers might move him before possibly losing him for nothing as a free agent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It took a while for league to understand our position was exactly

what we stated,â&#x20AC;? Kupchak told reporters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think they finally got it.â&#x20AC;? Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce will continue wearing Celtic green, as will Rajon Rondo when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s healthy enough to put on a uniform again. The Celtics did make one deal, acquiring guard Jordan Crawford from the Washington Wizards for center Jason Collins and injured guard Leandro Barbosa.

The Fire Ants are FLEENOR scheduled to play Potomac State (W.V.) on Sunday at 11:30 a.m. and then take on Cecil Community College at 2 p.m. Those times are tentative depending on how much rainfall Francis Marion Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sparrow Stadium receives over the next two days, however.

Clemson depending on freshmen success BY SCOTT KEEPFER Greenville News

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Atlanta outfielder Jason Heyward catches a fly ball during spring training in Kissimmee, Fla. Chipper Jones has retired, and the one-time phenom seems more than capable of taking over as the face of the franchise.

Heyward back on track with Atlanta PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press KISSIMMEE, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jason Heyward has already filmed a TV commercial this spring with none other than Hank Aaron. On this day, the J-Hey Kid is changing into his white Atlanta Braves uniform for yet another photo shoot. Heyward is in demand â&#x20AC;&#x201D; again â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and better get used to it. With the retirement of Chipper Jones, the big guy in right field is poised to take over as the face of the franchise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sort of a new team,â&#x20AC;? Heyward said Thursday, before heading out to take care of his latest obligation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to have some fun this season.â&#x20AC;? A year ago, he came into spring training facing major questions after a hugely disappointing second season. But Heyward insisted all along that he merely needed to stay healthy to live up to the potential he showed as a rookie star. Boy, was he right. Heyward played in 158 games, helping the Braves claim an NL wild card by hitting .269 with 27 homers, 82 RBIs and 21 stolen bases. A more important number is 23. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Heywardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s age, signaling a player who is only beginning to tap into his potential. The bandwagon is starting to get crowded, much like it was in 2010 when he hit a three-run homer the first time he stepped to the plate in the big leagues. None of that matters to Heyward, who insists heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never paid much attention to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being said beyond the field â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both the flattering and not so flattering. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry about any of the outside stuff,â&#x20AC;? he said, one day before the Bravesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; spring opener against the defending AL champion Detroit Tigers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The clubhouse is where it counts, man. Besides, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always going to be my biggest critic. But at the end of the day, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be healthy. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stress that enough. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be healthy to play games and get the most out of yourself. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I was most proud of last year: being able to play 158 times.â&#x20AC;? His teammates are sure impressed with the way he bounced back, responding in the best way possible to all those who questioned if he

was just a one-year wonder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was so happy for him,â&#x20AC;? second baseman Dan Uggla said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody was kind of riding his butt after that second year.â&#x20AC;? Indeed, it was quite a comedown from Heywardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rookie season, when he was hailed by Aaron as just the sort of player who would lure more African-Americans back to baseball, when his popularity was so high he was voted to the All-Star Game as a starter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His face was everywhere â&#x20AC;&#x201D; TV, billboards, everywhere you can think to put it, they put it,â&#x20AC;? Uggla recalled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of pressure to put on a 21-year-old. To see him bounce back and really carry us much of the season ... that shows a lot about his character and the person he is.â&#x20AC;? The expectations will be even higher this season, especially after the Braves made two huge moves during the offseason. Looking to replace Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; production, they signed center fielder B.J. Upton to a $75 million contract and made a blockbuster deal with Arizona to land his younger brother, Justin Upton, who takes over in left field. Just like that, Heyward is part of perhaps the most exciting outfield in all of baseball, a trio of 20-somethings who provide that rare combination of power and speed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to not lose a step,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, a new team, and two more great guys. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s promising.â&#x20AC;? Heywardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career got way off track in 2011, when a lingering shoulder injury affected his swing and essentially messed up the entire season. He batted just .227 with 14 homers and 42 RBIs, his production dropping off so dramatically down the stretch that he wound up sharing time in right field with journeyman Jose Constanza in the midst of a playoff race. This spring, Heyward is much more comfortable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m lacking for anything,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Baseball is a feel game. You need to know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for. You need to know the right feel for how the swing is broken down â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the timing, the tempo, even something as simple as the stance. Those are all things I have now. Going into the offseason with 158 games played in one season, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of reps. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of time put in.â&#x20AC;? Go Online for Your

over for Price, the Southeastern Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career saves leader. But Webb and Price are not the same, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fine with USC coach Chad Holbrook, who believes Webb can be an effective closer, too. Webb, a 6-6 junior lefthander, is not new to high-pressure moments, having shined in the College World Series the past three seasons as a middle reliever. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think his stuff is as dominating necessarily as a Matt Price,â&#x20AC;? Holbrook said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fair to compare Matt Price and Tyler Webb. Tyler is very effective in his own right. His numbers, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll put up against anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.â&#x20AC;? Price was USCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s closer the past three seasons, then was drafted in the seventh round by Baltimore and turned pro. He had 43 career saves. While leading USC to two national titles and a runner-up finish from 201012, he had a 2.62 earned-run average, 252 strikeouts and 70 walks. During that same time, Webb had a 2.63 ERA, 122 strikeouts and 48 walks in 78 appearances, including an impressive 2012 season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 1.56 ERA, 58 strikeouts and 18 walks in 39 appearances. Webb has made eight appearances in the College World Series, all in relief. His numbers are absurd: 15 innings, six hits, zero runs, six walks and 10 strikeouts. He pitched in four games last season in Omaha and allowed five hits and four walks in 10 2/3 innings, while striking out eight. While debuting as the closer last weekend against Liberty, Webb threw two hitless and scoreless innings over two games, struck out three and walked two. In Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season opener, he earned a five-out save after entering with a two-run lead and runners on second and third. It was an ideal start for Webb as he tries to carve out his own identity as the closer.

CLEMSON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Much of Clemsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s baseball success this season will hinge on how rapidly the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; freshman class progresses. If the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; seasonopening series last weekend is an accurate indicator, good things could be in store. Clemsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eight freshmen who have seen action at the plate have gone a combined 13-for-31, for a .419 average, and coach Jack Leggett will be hoping for similar production LEGGETT this weekend as his team plays host to Wright State for a three-game set beginning today at 4 p.m. The two teams will play again Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m. Freshmen, who comprise 15 of the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 35 roster spots, have had an early impact, and former Byrnes High School standout Steven Duggar is leading the way. Duggar, who has started all three games at third base, tops the team with a .556 average after going 5-for-9 in the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 2-1 series victory against Wil-

liam & Mary last weekend. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s excited about his fast start, but realizes that maintaining consistency will be the biggest challenge, not only for himself but all of the rookies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to see guys Friday night, Saturday and Sunday who all throw pretty well,â&#x20AC;? Duggar said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to try to come up there and be consistent offensively every day.â&#x20AC;? Duggar, a former AllState player who batted .444 as a senior at Byrnes, leads the Tigers with three runs scored, two doubles and seven total bases. Fellow freshman Tyler Krieger of Johns Creek, Ga., has started every game at shortstop, and while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s batting .200, he has yet to commit an error. And freshmen Maleeke Gibson, Jackson Campana and Kevin Bradley each have already notched their first collegiate hit. The freshman influence also is evident on the mound, where righthander Clate Schmidt will get the starting nod on Saturday. Schmidt, of Acworth, Ga, tossed 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief last weekend, allowing three hits and no walks while striking out three.

Offensive line group could make big splash in NFL BY MICHAEL MAROT The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NFL rookie offensive linemen are chock full of stories and characters. Luke Joeckel and Barrett Jones have the neatly trimmed hair, the clean-cut faces, the AllAmerican pedigrees and have paved the way for Heisman Trophy winners. Eric Fisher wants to show everyone that Central Michigan has prepared him just as well for the NFL as any of the perennial powerhouse programs. D.J. Fluker makes people laugh off the field and grimace on it, and Kyle Long will spend this weekend trying to convince NFL scouts he can add another chapter to the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NFL legacy. Yes, this draft class has a little bit of every-

thing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; except a consensus No. 1 pick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking at it, I want to get there. I am definitely striving to be the No. 1 pick, going through this entire process and playing this season and all that kind of stuff,â&#x20AC;? Joeckel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But my dream is to just play in the NFL. I know, being the No. 1 pick, after that, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really matter. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to go prove yourself in the NFL.â&#x20AC;? Most analysts believe the offensive and defensive linemen will make up the vast majority of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-round picks, but who goes where will likely depend on what teams need or want. And there are plenty of questions to answer before draft weekend rolls around. Joeckel is the straightlaced guy who pretty much sticks to the script on and off the field. He

grad, enjoys life so much he even poked fun at reportersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; questions Thursday. He has perhaps one of the rarest resumes in college football history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; three national championship rings and three All-American selections at three different positions, twice on the first team, once on the third. Yet his biggest hurdle is staying healthy. Jones canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work out in Indy because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only six weeks into a four-month recovery from surgery to repair a Lisfranc injury in his left foot. While some wonder where this 6-foot-4Â˝, 306-pounder will play in the NFL after excelling at right guard, left tackle and center in college, there are few doubts about his intangibles. He was tough enough to confront quarterback A.J. McCarron on the sideline during last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s BCS champion-

ship game, has made missionary trips to Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua and has shown a propensity for quickly assimilating into the offense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think when you play a lot of different positions, you start learning the offense from a lot of different perspectives and you understand the offense instead of just knowing it,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where do I feel most comfortable? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always felt most comfortable with where I played last.â&#x20AC;? Fisher is trying to follow the lead of Joe Staley, another Central Michigan alum who made it big in the NFL. Teams appear to like his quick feet and athleticism, skills he developed as a high school basketball player long before measuring in at 306 pounds on combine week.

‘Sister Rosetta Tharpe’ documentary is rare treat BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH The best documentaries tell you something you do not already know. And if you’re really lucky, they will contain a story as good, or better than, a Hollywood film. The “American Masters” (9 p.m., PBS, TVPG, check local listings) presentation of “Sister Rosetta Tharpe: The Godmother of Rock & Roll” clicks on both cylinders. It’s a can’t-miss for fans of pop culture and music history. Gone 40 years, Tharpe offered a remarkable link between the worlds of gospel, big band, rhythm and blues, boogie-woogie and what became known as rock and roll. And she did so while playing raw, bluesy, muscular riffs on an electric guitar long before such performances were seen as ladylike or fit for a singer of spirituals. Her life was as colorful, tragic and cinematic as her performances. Born to a poor farmer/ musician and a selftaught evangelist, Tharpe was just a child when she began to accompany, and then quickly outperform, her mother on the evangelizing circuit. Her mother took Rosetta out of the South, moving to Chicago and having a controlling influence on her for most of her life. She later married her daughter off to a cruel and exploitive preacher. Tharpe’s decision to leave that marriage coincided with her entry into the secular, often profane popular music of New York’s Cotton Club and other big band venues. Her departure from pure gospel, which came decades before Ray Charles and Sam Cooke made similar creative decisions, was seen as a

betrayal. She continued to bridge the two worlds and sing spirituals as Sister Rosetta. Her personal life included several semipublic relationships with other women, including longtime collaborator Marie Knight. Having been victimized by an arranged religious marriage in her youth, Tharpe orchestrated a brazen public wedding ceremony in 1951, marrying a music manager she barely knew in front of 25,000 fans at Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C. The stunt worked, but the marriage foundered. “Sister” includes great, but sadly, rare archival footage of her performances, as well as interviews with peers, the children of peers and members of the gospel groups the Dixie Hummingbirds and the Jordanaires, Elvis Presley’s vocal accompanists, who broke the color barrier by performing with Tharpe during the years of strict racial segregation. It would have been nice to hear from the legends (Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard) Tharpe influenced. And some of the narration leans toward the perfunctory. But this “American Masters” goes to the top of the charts in my book. At a time when many rock histories offer cliche-ridden meditations on the all-too-familiar, “Sister” provides curious viewers that rarest of treats: unexplored territory.
