Lincoln High Alumni Association to host open house

BY IVY MOORE ivym@theitem.com The Lincoln High School Alumni Association will host an open house on Thursday to celebrate its new History and Archives Room. The public is invited to attend the opening reception from 4 to 7 p.m. on the second floor of the Lincoln Trinity Center at 22 Council St. Jim Felder, a Lincoln alumni and coordinator

for the event, said the room is located in the former Lincoln library, “and we have had assistance from three alumnae who went on to become librarians: Rosa Mae Twiggs, Charletta Pickering Felder and Carolyn DesChamps James.

“We wanted to have the open house during Black History Month. We also encourage new members to join the alumni association and

current members to renew during this event.”

The archives are divided into four sections, or corners — military, political, sports and education (Lincoln principals and administrators).

Felder said the military corner comprises information and materials on alumni who went on to have distinguished military careers, including Sumter’s three Tuskegee SEE LINCOLN, PAGE A9

Black history event spotlights trips to Haiti

2 Vietnam War veterans reunite after 45 years

‘The way they live … it’s rough over there.

We really shouldn’t take for granted what we have here.’

BY ROB COTTINGHAM rcottingham@theitem.com For most of us, getting older means getting wiser and more mature, whether we want it or not. With that maturity comes a calmer poise hard to come by in younger people.

But a couple weeks ago, despite being in his early ‘60s, Johnny Williams was as giddy as a child at Christmas. His knees bounced anxiously as he shifted his feet and fidgeted with his fingers, checking the time every other minute as his wife, Hattie, vacuumed the living room.

After nearly half a century, Williams was about to see an old friend.

“He called me just a few minutes ago,” Williams said, his voice amplified. “Told me he was outside of Columbia, so he should be here in just a little bit.”

Williams is a Vietnam War veteran who served in the Army from 1967 to 1971, volunteering for service at the age of 18.

He served those four years as part of the 101st Airborne, 2nd Platoon, most of which time he spent touring heavily embattled areas in Vietnam.

The impoverished country of Haiti holds a special place in Richard Boisvert’s heart. It is the country from which he adopted his two sons. It is also where he recently spent several days with others on a mission trip to help supply aid to a children’s village in Espwa, Haiti.

Boisvert was part of a group that went to a village just for children, where orphans or children in similar situations are sent. The group helped paint a structure that would be able to withstand earthquakes and hurricanes.

Boisvert’s first trip to Haiti was in 1989 when he adopted his youngest son, Lionel. He returned in Thanksgiving 2012 to reconnect with Lionel’s biological mother.

“I wanted to thank her for her sacrifice,” he said.

Roughly 100 adult education students heard to Boisvert’s stories about his journeys to the Third World country at a recent lecture at the Sumter County Adult Education building. The one-hour seminar focused on information about Haiti and even spurred some students into a discussion of how they could help the Haitian people.

Boisvert, who directs the diploma program at the school, painted a picture very different from average American life. Poverty, lack of health care and food, and a high population density have created a hard life for many of the Haitian people. The Central American country is roughly the size of Maryland and has approximately 10 million people. Without a sanitation infrastructure, disease is rampant, and the life expectancy is much lower than that in the United States.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The average wage is $2 a day, Boisvert said.

“I got tired of waiting on the draft, so I figured I’d remove all the anxiety and just went ahead and joined,” he said with a grin. “I was part of Charlie Company — the Screamin’ Eagles, they called us.”

Forty-five years is a long time to remember

any one particular day, but for Williams, it was just yesterday.

“Some things, you just never forget,” Williams said. “And that day was one of those times.”

“We saw quite a bit of action while I was there, but that day...” Williams said, pausing.

“Hell of a day that time. I’ll never forget that day.”

Judge sentences 3 on drug charges in separate incidents Derrick L. Prince told a circuit court judge recently that he has been in no further trouble since his arrest in 2009 on drug charges.

Prince, 31, of 2865 Old St. John Church Road in Lynchburg, was initially charged in May 2009 with seven counts of distribution of crack cocaine, possession of a sawed-off shotgun and possession of crack cocaine. He pleaded guilty on Feb. 13 at Sumter County Courthouse before 3rd Circuit Judge Howard P. King to four counts of distribution of crack cocaine, first offense.

King sentenced Prince to 10 years suspended to one year in prison to be followed by three years’ probation.

“I’ll be frank with you, Mr. Prince, I’m at a loss for what to do with you,” King said shortly before he sentenced Prince. “I don’t feel someone involved in dealing drugs should be on proba-

tion. And I normally don’t put someone back on probation when they’ve been revoked twice. I believe you deserve some credit for the fact that you stayed out of jail for almost four years. I believe perhaps the only thing that kept you on the straight and narrow is that you had this hanging over your head.”

King made an exception for Prince in allowing for probation. Prince was revoked twice, according to court records, for a prior simple possession of marijuana and resisting arrest charge. Prince told King that he had been dealing small amounts of crack cocaine — amounts ranged from .21 to .43 grams — to help take care of his disabled uncle and his 9-year-old son.

“I know I did wrong,” Prince said. “But I just couldn’t get enough money any other way at the time.”

“Part of your sentence includes drug testing and substance abuse counseling,”

FROM STAFF REPORTS

Man arrested in restaurant burglary A suspect has been arrested in a burglary at a Chinese restaurant earlier this month.

Robert Darnell Jones, 35, of 10 Dixie Drive, was arrested Friday and charged with second-degree burglary.

On the night of Feb. 12, Jones allegedly broke into the restaurant in the 400 JONES block of Broad Street by breaking through a plate glass door. He’s accused of taking about $30 from the cash register.

The restaurant was closed at the time of the theft.

Employees found the door shattered the next morning and called police. The Sumter Police Department processed the scene and reportedly found evidence identifying Jones as the suspect.

According to police, Jones was on bond for a previous burglary arrest in 2011 at the time of the restaurant break-in. He was arrested Friday without incident and is being held at the SumterLee Regional Detention Center on a $60,000 surety bond.

School district board will hold work session The Sumter School District Board of Trustees will hold a work session starting at 6 p.m. at Furman Middle School, 3400 Bethel Church Road, Sumter.

No executive session is scheduled.

The board will vote on a policy that includes the procedure for the board to follow when naming school properties or portions thereof and on a matter connected to Memorial Stadium Field.

Trustees are also scheduled to receive: • Furman Middle School presentation; • Information on student discipline; • Tax Increment Financing or TIF presentation; • Budget preparation update; • Legislative update; and • Sumter High School International Baccalaureate overview.

King said. “If you don’t follow that, you’ll be facing more time.”

King felt 30-year-old Javaris Singleton, however, was not a candidate for probation when Singleton pleaded guilty on Feb. 12 to possession of cocaine, second offense. King gave Singleton 18 months, with credit for time served since his arrest about 75 days ago.

Singleton, of 409 Highland Ave., was arrested Nov. 26, 2012, by the Sumter Police Department, whose drug unit served three warrants on a known “drug and prostitution home” on Shuler Drive, according to 3rd Circuit Assistant Solicitor Darla F. Pierce.

“There was a trace amount of cocaine in his front pocket, about .02 grams,” Pierce told King.

Singleton was given probationary sentences for prior convictions for possession of marijuana and cocaine in 2002 and possession of crack cocaine in 2008.

“This was for personal use, not for selling,” Sumter Assistant Public Defender Tiffany Butler told King of Singleton’s most recent charge. “We’re asking to consider a suspended sentence with the possibility of probation to seek rehabilitation.”

King declined Butler’s suggestion, however, noting he previously sentenced him in 2002.

“I don’t think you’re a good candidate for probation; I think it will be setting you up for failure,” King said.

“You need to take responsibility for your own life and get (rehabilitation) done when you get out, not do it because it’s part of probation.”

In another unrelated case, Marcus L. Lawrence got the steepest sentence from King on distribution charges on Feb. 12, receiving seven years for two counts of distribution of cocaine, second offense. Third Circuit Assistant Solicitor Bronwyn K.

McElveen told King that Lawrence was busted by the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office after a confidential informant purchased from Lawrence 2.29 grams of cocaine on May 11, 2011, and 1.5 grams on May 19, 2011.

“The confidential informant positively identified Mr. Lawrence from a sixphoto lineup in September 2011,” McElveen said.

Lawrence was not arrested, however, until Aug. 20, 2012, and his probation was revoked for an earlier drug charge two days later. King said his sentence on the new charge will run concurrently with the seven-year sentence Lawrence must now serve for violating his probation.

“You have to find some way to support your family other than dealing drugs,” King told Lawrence. “It looks like that’s what you’ve been doing all this time. If you get out and get caught again, you face a minimum of 25 years in prison.”

Lemira’s step team will host step off at SHS

BY JADE ANDERSON janderson@theitem.com Famous for its percussion ensemble, Lemira Elementary School is about to show off some more talent.

Sumter High School presents the Lemira Lions’ Golden Steppers Step Off at 2 p.m. March 2 at the high school, 2580 McCrays Mill Road. This is a fundraiser for the elementary school’s step team, and admission is $5. Children under 3 get in free.

“We’re part of MASTA — Midlands Athletic Step Team Association — and most of the teams host events,” said Mary Tuggle, Lemira’s physical education teacher and sponsor of the Lemira Lions’ Golden Steppers. “Almost all of them have been in Columbia, so we decided to host one this year. It’s in conjunction with the Sumter High School booster club. They’ll be doing the concessions.”

The team is in its third year, and Mario Burch, whom Tuggle calls her “wonderful volunteer,” helped start it.

“I’m an alumni of Morris College and was in Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity,” he said. “I was a junior, and it was part of community service.”

The Lemira Percussion Ensemble will be performing, and 19 students will be stepping.

“We get to do different steps and compete,” said Shalasia Singleton, a fourth-grader who is in her third year with the team. “We learn new things while having fun at the same time.

We’ve been to so many shows. I think it

will be fun to host one and guide people around.”

The Lemira team is only doing an exhibition performance. As the host team, the students are not competing.

“It’s awesome because I get to stand in front of a big crowd and stand on a platform and step,” said Zy’on Harris, third-grader. “I’m really excited. Last year in second grade, I liked to see the step team and kind of hoped I’d be on it. I never thought Mrs. Tuggle would ask.”

At the end of last school year, Tuggle asked students who were interested in joining to let her know. Then she kept an eye on them in physical education class and hand-picked the team.

“Students must maintain a C average and stay out of trouble,” Tuggle said. “That’s very important. If they can’t do that, they can’t be on the team.

Sentence suspended, man faces more serious charges

BY ROBERT J. BAKER bbaker@theitem.com A North Carolina man received a sentence of time served last week after pleading guilty to contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

But instead of Samuel Ryan Templin gaining his freedom, he is being returned to his home county to face more serious charges.

Templin, 22, of 4723 Old

Highway Road in Monroe, N.C., was arrested there in September 2012 after “knowingly causing and encour- TEMPLIN aging a 15-yearold (Sumter) female minor to leave her home and accompany him to his home in North Carolina without consent of her parents,” according to his arrest warrant.

Third Circuit Assistant Solicitor W. Jason Corbett told 3rd Circuit Judge W. Jeffrey Young on Thursday that Templin traveled from his home in North Carolina to the Wedgefield area of Sumter County in early September for the “purpose of transporting his ‘girlfriend,’ a term I’m going to use loosely.”

“She left voluntarily from her grandmother’s resi-

dence,” Corbett said. “The exact nature of their relationship is now subject to criminal (proceedings) in North Carolina.”

Templin is charged in North Carolina with indecent liberties with a child and statutory rape, according to reports.

“Of course, you realize you will be transported to North Carolina from here,” Young told Templin. “You

will not be released today, even with a sentence suspended to time served.”

Templin declined to address Young, who imposed a one-year sentence suspended to time served. Sumter Assistant Public Defender Julie Richard said he is “ready to face his responsibilities back at home in North Carolina.”

Foundation’s tournament, auction will benefit college students

BY RANDY BURNS Special to The Item BISHOPVILLE — The pain of losing a child never goes away.

In July 2010, Karl “Tiny” Alexander, who had just finished his freshman year at Wofford, died suddenly of heart failure at the age of 19.

“No, the pain doesn’t go away,” said father Wiley Alexander. “But you are strengthened by the support of family and friends. And through this foundation, we are able to show the love we have for Karl.”

The Karl E. Alexander Foundation and Scholarship Fund at Wofford College was established by family and friends to help young people live their dreams, said aunt Nancy Galloway.

TOURNAMENT INFORMATION WHAT: Karl “Tiny” Alexander Memorial Golf Tournament and Auction WHEN: March 9 WHERE: Fox Creek Golf Course, 2433 Tomahawk Road REGISTRATION: 7 a.m.; tee time, 9 a.m.

CONTACT: (803) 397-2704 http://karlalexanderfoundation.org Silent Auction will be held in the Clubhouse.

PHOTO PROVIDED

Emily Groce, the first recipient of the Karl Alexander Scholarship program, participated in a 5K Run sponsored by the Kappa Sigma fraternity at Wofford and held at the college in Karl’s memory. Karl’s father Wiley Alexander said the family was “elated” to have an opportunity to meet Emily.

Groce, center, is shown posing with members of Karl’s family: Nancy Galloway, aunt; Wiley Alexander, father; DeLois Alexander, mother; and Wesley Alexander, brother.

Galloway, who is the sister of Karl’s mother, DeLois Alexander, said the foundation also exists to honor Karl. The foundation’s connection with Wofford College is a natural fit.

“Karl always wanted to go to Wofford,” Galloway said. “That was one of the dreams that he was able to achieve.

He also wanted to go on to medical school to become a doctor so he could help people.”

The criteria for awarding the scholarship fund include community service as

well as academic performance.

The first scholarship was awarded to Emily Groce, a 2011 graduate of Greenville High School. The fouryear scholarship will eventually lead to a full scholarship for Emily, said Wiley.

“We hope we will have enough money after this year’s golf tournament to give her a full ride,” he said.

Emily is involved in community service programs and was one of the organizers of a “Joy Prom” for students who attend a

special-needs school, Alexander said.

“We were able to meet Emily last fall when Karl’s fraternity (Kappa Sigma) had a 5K run in Karl’s memory,” Wiley said.

The foundation’s annual golf tournament at Fox Creek Golf Course in Lydia has served as the primary fundraiser for the scholarship fund, generating more than $30,000 in two years.

The first tournament in 2011 raised $15,000. Last year’s tournament generated about $18,000. All but about $100 has been turned over to Wofford, where it is already benefiting others.

Karl had a love for all sports, particularly NASCAR racing and golf. Karl’s grandfather, Homer Galloway, was an avid driver of stock cars.

As a member of the Robert E. Lee Academy golf team, Karl won the Most Improved Golfer Award in 2007 and the Coach’s Award in 2008 and 2009.

At Wofford, Karl developed many friendships through his association with Kappa Sigma and other college activities. He joined the school’s lacrosse team and

worked as a sideline coach.

Gina Marthers, a family friend who is one of the primary organizers of the golf tournament and auction, said this year’s event promises to be “the biggest ever.”

Silent Auction items include a 2013 car, trips, electronics, tickets to Carrie Underwood and Kenny Chesney concerts and $10,000 in cash.

“You do not need a golf club to come out

and enjoy the day on the golf course,” Marthers said.

Visit the website for more information about the various levels of sponsorship available to support the foundation. Early 2013 sponsors include: Pine Press Printing, Norton Funeral Home, Truck Division of Lowe’s, Henry and Nancy Mashburn, McLeod Pharmacy and Wesley Chapel United Methodist Women.

FDA approves new targeted breast cancer drug WASHINGTON (AP) — The Food and Drug Administration has approved a first-of-a-kind breast cancer medication that targets tumor cells while sparing healthy ones.

The drug Kadcyla from Roche combines the established drug Herceptin with a powerful chemotherapy drug and a third chemical linking the medicines together. The chemical keeps the cocktail intact until it binds to a cancer cell, delivering a potent dose of antitumor poison.

Cancer researchers say the drug is an important step for-

ward because it delivers more medication while reducing the unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy. “This antibody goes seeking out the tumor cells, gets internalized and then explodes them from within. So it’s very kind and gentle on the patients — there’s no hair loss, no nausea, no vomiting,� said Dr. Melody Cobleigh of Rush University Medical Center. “It’s a revolutionary way of treating cancer.�

Cobleigh helped conduct the key studies of the drug at the Chicago facility.

The FDA approved the new

treatment for about 20 percent of breast cancer patients with a form of the disease that is typically more aggressive and less responsive to hormone therapy. These patients have tumors that overproduce a protein known as HER-2. Breast cancer is the second-most deadly form of cancer in U.S. women and is expected to kill more than 39,000 Americans this year, according to the National Cancer Institute.

The approval will help Roche’s Genentech unit build on the blockbuster success of Herceptin, which has long

dominated the breast cancer marketplace. The drug had sales of roughly $6 billion last year.

Genentech said Friday that Kadcyla will cost $9,800 per month, compared to $4,500 per month for regular Herceptin.

The company estimates a full course of Kadcyla, about nine months of medicine, will cost $94,000.

FDA scientists said they approved the drug based on company studies showing Kadcyla delayed the progression of breast cancer by several months. Researchers reported

last year that patients treated with the drug lived 9.6 months before death or the spread of their disease, compared with a little more than six months for patients treated with two other standard drugs, Tykerb and Xeloda.

Overall, patients taking Kadcyla lived about 2.6 years, compared with 2 years for patients taking the other drugs.

FDA specifically approved the drug for patients with advanced breast cancer who have already been treated with Herceptin and taxane, a widely used chemotherapy drug.

U.S. government to air drop toxic mice on Guam snakes

BY ERIC TALMADGE Associated Press Writer ANDERSEN AIR FORCE BASE, Guam — Dead mice laced with painkillers are about to rain down on Guam’s jungle canopy. They are scientists’ prescription for a headache that has caused the tiny U.S. territory misery for more than 60 years: the brown tree snake.

Most of Guam’s native bird species are extinct because of the snake, which reached the island’s thick jungles by hitching rides from the South Pacific on U.S. military ships shortly after World War II. There may be 2 million of the reptiles on Guam now, decimating wildlife, biting residents and even knocking out electricity by slithering

onto power lines.

More than 3,000 miles away, environmental officials in Hawaii have long feared a similar invasion — which in their case likely would be a “snakes on a plane� scenario.

That would cost the state many vulnerable species and billions of dollars, but the risk will fall if Guam’s air-drop strategy succeeds. “We are taking this to a new phase,� said Daniel Vice, assistant state director of U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services in Hawaii, Guam,

and the Pacific Islands. “There really is no other place in the world with a snake problem like Guam.�

Brown tree snakes are generally a few feet long but can grow to be more than 10 feet in length.

Most of Guam’s native

birds were defenseless against the nocturnal, tree-based predators, and within a few decades of the reptile’s arrival, nearly all of them were wiped out.

The snakes can also climb power poles and wires, causing blackouts, or slither into homes and bite people, including babies; they use venom on their prey but it is not lethal to humans.

The infestation and the toll it has taken on native wildlife have tarnished Guam’s image as a tourism haven, though the snakes are rarely seen outside their jungle habitat.

The solution to this headache, fittingly enough, is acetaminophen, the active ingredient in painkillers including Tylenol.

The strategy takes advantage of the snake’s two big weaknesses. Unlike most snakes, brown tree snakes are happy to eat prey they didn’t kill themselves, and they are highly vulnerable to acetaminophen, which is harmless to humans.

The upcoming mice drop is targeted to hit snakes near Guam’s sprawling Andersen Air Force Base, which is surrounded by heavy foliage and if compromised would offer the snakes a potential ticket off the island. Using helicopters, the dead neonatal mice will be dropped by hand, one by one.

U.S. government scientists have been perfecting the mice-drop strategy for more than a decade with support from the Department of Defense and the Department of the Interior.

To keep the mice bait from dropping all the

way to the ground, where it could be eaten by other animals or attract insects as they rot, researchers have developed a flotation device with streamers designed to catch in the branches of the forest foliage, where the snakes live and feed.

Experts say the impact on other species will be minimal, particularly since the snakes have themselves wiped out the birds that might have been most at risk. “One concern was that crows may eat mice with the toxicant,� said William Pitt, of the U.S. National Wildlife Research Center’s Hawaii Field Station. “However, there are no longer wild crows on Guam. We will continue to refine methods to increase efficiency and limit any potential non-target hazards.�

The mouse drop is set to start in April or May.

U.S. Department of Agriculture wildlife specialist Tony Salas holds a brown tree snake outside his office on Andersen Air Force Base on the island of Guam. The U.S. government is planning to drop toxic mice from helicopters to battle the snakes, an invasive species that has decimated Guam’s native bird population and could cause billions of dollars of damage if allowed to spread to Hawaii.

Florence man, 25, battles rare genetic disorder FLORENCE (AP) — At first glance, Daniel Elvington looks a lot like any other 25-yearold, handsome and nicely dressed in his button-down shirt. He laughs with friends at the New Generations Adult Day Care facility, enjoys doing crafts and playing with his video tablet.

But Daniel is not just any other 25-yearold. The oldest son of Janet and Randy Elvington was born with Angelman syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that causes a deletion of a gene on the 15th chromosome and leaves those afflicted with an assortment of developmental disabilities, including the inability to communicate verbally.

English doctor Harry Angelman discovered the syndrome in the 1960s, but it didn’t gain any serious attention until the late 1980s.

And even today it’s not widely known — as the Elvingtons can attest.

They spent the first 10 or so years of his life trying to figure out just what was wrong.

It started when Daniel was a newborn.

Janet worried about him a bit. He seemed to be developing slowly and had a hard time nursing or taking a bottle. Initially doctors tried to reassure her. “He’s OK,� they said. “Give him more time.

It’s your first baby.� “But I knew (something wasn’t right),�

Janet Elvington said. “I’d hold him and he

was loose, couldn’t really hold himself up, or he was stiff.�

A mother’s intuition proved to be correct.

Something wasn’t right.

But it took years of visits to countless doctors and plenty of heartache before the Elvingtons knew exactly what the problem was.

As he grew up, Daniel couldn’t speak and it took him a long time to learn new things. He moved stiffly and awkwardly — a classic symptom as it turned out — and he didn’t walk until he was almost 3.

About that time, a doctor put his hands on Janet’s shoulders and said rather forcefully, “He’s retarded, you just have to accept it.�

The family didn’t just “accept� it, however. They continued to search for answers. The breakthrough came when their pediatrician agreed to genetic testing. Dr. Richard Schroer of Greenwood Genetics Center provided the Angelman syndrome diagnosis. “It lifted a ton of wondering,� Janet explained. “We were constantly striving to do what we could for him, and knowing exactly what was wrong, why it happened and what it meant for his life made a big difference.�

Diagnosis can be tricky with Angelman syndrome. It is rare — its prevalence in the population is pegged somewhere between 1 in 10,000 and 1 in 20,000 — and many

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Daniel Elvington gets a hug from former teacher Ann Nichols during a Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day party at the New Generations Adult Day Care in Florence. The oldest son of Janet and Randy Elvington was born with Angelman syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that causes a deletion of a gene on the 15th chromosome and leaves those afflicted with an assortment of developmental disabilities, including the inability to communicate verbally.

doctors have never heard of it. Daniel is the only person in Florence with the syndrome as far as the Elvingtons know, and he is the only Angelman child that his former teacher, Ann Nichols, saw during her 20 years of working with developmentally challenged students.

Daniel spends part of his day with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gang,â&#x20AC;? a group of young adults with special needs at New Generations Adult Day Care in Florence. Karen Belissary, one of the owners

of New Generations, said Daniel is the first person she has ever known with Angelman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is such a joy to have here,â&#x20AC;? Belissary said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Always happy, always so sweet.â&#x20AC;?

Although the sweet faces and joyful personalities of those with Angelman is a typical characteristic, smiles can hide the darker side of the syndrome.

Seizures, severe physical and mental handicaps, along with speech delays are all part of the syndrome, according to the Angelman Syn-

Fish Day

drome Foundation.

In Danielâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, all of the symptoms are present. He has a happy, kind personality, he had seizures through puberty and he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t communicate verbally. He can import information, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unable to export it. He recognizes people. He knows what he likes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; any kind of cake for instance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and he knows what he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, such as ice in his water. Fortunately for Daniel, his

REUNION from Page A1 THE RECOLLECTION

Williams’ company was just outside the Ashaw Valley in Vietnam when they heard over the radio that two soldiers had been cut off on their way back.

With time seeming to pass too quickly, Williams and the rest of his company had a decision to make.

“We couldn’t leave them out there; that ain’t right,” Williams said. “So we decided to go get ’em.”

So the company set out on a rescue mission, descending into the valley, a notoriously combative hot spot at the time, with Williams working as the “point man,” the first man in the column when entering a combat zone. He was the eyes and ears for the whole group.

But as well trained as Williams was, some things are unforeseeable.

“We were ambushed,” he said.

“There was an explosion, and suddenly, three men popped up in front of me, maybe 30, 40 feet between me and them. Three-toone fight ... I still get big chills just thinking about it, even after all this time.”

Williams dropped to the ground, injured by shrapnel from the explosion. Surprised by the massive onslaught of firepower, most of the company begrudgingly withdrew to recover. Pinned down by the gunfire, Williams, along with a few others who were incapacitated, couldn’t pull out.

The grim reality set in: They were in a fight for their lives.

Despite the panic, Williams can look back and laugh about it a little.

“I yelled out, ‘I’m hit! Medic!’” Williams

laughed. “I hear back, ‘No, you come to me!’”

The three ambushers were armed with two assault rifles, an SKS and an AK-47, and an RPD, a light machine gun capable of firing up to 750 rounds per minute. “My buddy, Bones, was right next to me,” Williams said. “A bullet whizzed by his face and cut him from just above his top lip and across his cheek.”

Eventually, Williams gathered his wits. He “cooked” a grenade, an act in which the soldier holds the grenade for a certain amount of time after pulling the pin so the grenade can’t be thrown back at him, then threw it through the bushes and into the foxhole that sat about 20 feet away.

“I got ’em,” Williams said with a smile.

But things were still looking grim for Williams and his buddy, “Bones.” What happened next sticks out

even more in Williams’ mind than the combat.

“My buddy came back for me,” he said, his eyes welling with emotions from the haunting experience.

“Things were looking so bad ... it seemed like minutes, but it was hours. That voice coming through the brush was the most relieving sound of my life. It was McDonald, Sgt. Jack McDonald.”

McDonald was Williams’ squad leader during his first tour in Vietnam.

“He taught me everything I knew about surviving in the jungle ... and in combat,” Williams said. “(It was) fitting that he would be the one to come back and get me.”

The group managed to get out of dodge with seven injured and no deaths. Williams was thankful for that.

“We lost a lot of men over there, but not that day,” Williams said. “Not that day.”

Williams was taken to a hospital where he was treated for his wounds. McDonald stopped by to visit him as he recovered. “‘You did a fine job out there,’ he told me,” Williams said, recalling McDonald’s words. “‘Nobody threw a grenade but you. You saved lives.’”

Williams would receive several ccommodations for his accomplishments in battle, including a purple heart with a V-device

“for valor,” but he never saw or heard from McDonald again ... until just a couple years ago.

THE RECONNECTION

Over the past few years, Williams said he began to think about his old friend more and more often. His reflections led him to pursue McDonald and catch up on lost time.

At the request of his father, Williams’ son, Johnny “Otis” Jr., who is now retired from the Army after 21 years of service, did a records search through the 101st Airborne rosters.

“I asked, ‘Son, can you find a friend of mine?’” Williams said.

“I told him, ‘I think his SEE REUNION, PAGE A7

REUNION from Page A6 name is Jack McDonald.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He searched through the archives and found two McDonalds who matched the details I gave him. One of them lived in Cincinnati, Ohio, and it had a number listed there, so I called it.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A couple days later, I was checking my own voice mail,â&#x20AC;?

Williams continued.

ROB COTTINGHAM / THE ITEM

Johnny Williams, overwhelmed with excitement, laughs as Jack McDonald shares a few jokes.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Yes, Johnny. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s me.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m the one youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

The two men immediately began reminiscing over their shared memories â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the highs, the lows and all that in between. Williams said once McDonald started naming people, he knew for sure it was him.

In their catching up, the men shared their experiences since the war, the names their children, the jobs theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had and the people they lost. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We lost Hernandez,â&#x20AC;? Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I got injured, I left the platoon, so I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know. All this time, I thought he was still alive. He got killed over there in A Shau Valley. Found out two years ago, when McDonald told me.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was quite the character,â&#x20AC;? Williams said with a short, sullen chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We always used to play with Hernandez.â&#x20AC;?

Soon after the two men began their conversations, Williams and McDonald began planning a reunion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We tried to work something out in the spring before last (2011), but things fell through and he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t show up,â&#x20AC;? Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought he might have given up.â&#x20AC;?

The men still sent Christmas cards to each other, and this past holiday season, Williams got some good news. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had sent him the card, and about three days ago (Feb. 6-7), I was at the shop when the phone rang,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was on the other end, saying he was coming.â&#x20AC;?

They agreed to meet that following Sunday and have lunch at The Golden Corral here in Sumter.

THE REUNION

So the time and place were set. Williams would meet McDonald in the parking lot and the two would go from there.

In the parking lot, McDonald sat with his wife as they waited for Williams, along with his wife and two sons, to arrive.

McDonald said his nerves were just as testy as Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a long, long time,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen my buddy in 45 years. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait for him to get here.â&#x20AC;?

McDonald could just as easily recall the day Williams spoke of so vividly; the two men being cut off, the company deciding to rescue them, and the havoc that ensued.

Just as McDonald began recalling the story, Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pickup truck pulled into the lot. McDonald hopped out of his car.

From the moment both men stepped onto the pavement, they locked eyes as they quickly approached each other, their faces displaying an elation only few could understand, with eyes as big as apples and smiles from ear to ear. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, boy! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a long time,â&#x20AC;? Williams shouted to McDonald. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, it has, my friend. Far too long,â&#x20AC;? McDonald replied.

The two men embraced, their arms gripping each other beyond the strength of a bear hug. For those watching, it was an immense display of friendship, brotherhood and respect.

The men, so overwhelmed with emotion, struggled to speak.

THE ITEM

They simply laughed in joyful appreciation for each other.

There are no words for these moments.

The two men chatted for a few seconds, then headed into the restaurant, where they began sharing their stories with each other â&#x20AC;&#x201D; people they remember, shared memories they recall, and the events they missed out on.

Like Williams, McDonald can laugh at some of the turmoil he experienced in Vietnam. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember being pinned down just two days before we went to rescue those fellas,â&#x20AC;? McDonald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw them getting away, so I hopped over a ravine and onto my back. I stretched out my arms and put the tip of my M16 out between my feet. I let go of every bullet I had. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I looked down,â&#x20AC;? McDonald said with laughter, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d shot the tops of my boots off.â&#x20AC;?

The two men agreed on one thing about the mission to rescue the two trapped soldiers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want them left out there,â&#x20AC;? McDonald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave anybody behind,â&#x20AC;? Williams added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No, sir.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;You do what you can to get out of it,â&#x20AC;? McDonald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You say youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fighting for your country, but in the thick of it, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fighting for your buddies.â&#x20AC;?

Williams and McDonald continued their conversation, each minute relating to another sticky situation or funny memory or people from their unit.

They shared stories of Bones, Clifford, Sweeney and other Army brothers. They laughed

about the snakes and the lizards of the jungle. They shared chilling tales of so many skirmishes and missions they survived. There was so much to tell, so much to hear. But if one thing was evident, the two men were happy to see each other, as old friends should be.

THE REFLECTION

A week later, Williams is still ecstatic about seeing his buddy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were together in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Nam from fall of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;67 to March of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;68,â&#x20AC;?

Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then there was a 45-year gap, and I got to see him again. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t describe in words how great it felt to finally see him.â&#x20AC;?

The excitement from the reunion has left Williams doubting reality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It still doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel real,â&#x20AC;?

Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sunk in, yet.â&#x20AC;?

While he might be rendered speechless about his emotions at the meeting, Williams can easily tell you there wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be another lapse in communication like the nearly half-century that separated them before. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, no,â&#x20AC;? Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gonna see each other real soon, hopefully within the next two years.â&#x20AC;?

Though he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t show his age as much as others might, Williams said the pressure of Father Time will spur a sooner meeting. Swallowing the pride that others find themselves stifled by, he lets out a bittersweet chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gettinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; old, now,â&#x20AC;?

Williams said, smiling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll definitely meet again.â&#x20AC;?

Sequestration a reality of what’s to come

T

hose following the looming budget sequestration — set to kick in March 1 — know that it can only mean bad news for our military. For those not familiar with what’s about to happen or even what it is, sequestration is the employment of automatic, acrossthe-board spending cuts in the face of annual budget deficits.

In regard to Jack how this affects OSTEEN our military, it’s approximately $496 billion in defense cuts during the next 10 years (give or take a billion or so). The Department of Defense will have to do without approximately $46 billion by the end of the fiscal year. In terms of your United States Air Force, it’s about $12 billion of across-the-board cuts.

The reality is that the Air Force will be much smaller, according to Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh.

In addition to force structure reductions (people), the number of aircraft the Air Force has ready to use will also continue to decrease in numbers.

One of the major problems, according to Gen. Welsh, is that with the mandates given by Congress, it’s hard for the Air Force to make the strategic cuts needed to “right size.”

Additionally, the Secretary of the Air Force Michael

other BRAC round. I mean what congressman is going to go along with the idea to close his or her base for the good of the Air Force?

Gen. Hostage’s idea is to look at the bases that have the highest probability of making a successful conversion from military to commercial or civilian use. That sounds like a good plan as long as it’s not Shaw Air Force Base of course.

The bottom line is that despite Congress not taking sequestration as seriously as it should (see photo), the impact on our military during the next 10 or more years will be devastating to not only our defense, but to our national security as well.

In short, we will be taking away the tools airmen need to do the job. According to Gen. Welsh, airmen will still go and fight but will die in greater numbers because they are not trained and ready the way they need to be.

The Air Force, along with the other military branches, will have to stop trying to do more with less and do less with less because that’s the reality of where we’re headed.

COMMENTARY | Donley points out that because the sequestration has been continually delayed over these past few months, the cuts will have to come during a six-month time period rather than a year-long period, further exacerbating the effect.

To accomplish this, the Air Force will be looking at a hiring freeze, slowing facility maintenance and withholding money from major commands to make this happen.

And, according to Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, most of the cuts will come from putting the vast majority of the civilian workforce on administrative furlough.

Recent analysis was done

by Pew Research, which showed the top five states to be hit hardest by the defense side of sequestration. Luckily, South Carolina was NOT one of those but the other five states — Virginia, California, Maryland, Texas and Florida — combined for more than 414,000 jobs lost.

How does all this affect Shaw Air Force Base? Well, a Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) is most certainly on the horizon for the 2014-15 budget year. The last BRAC was really just “Realignment” and not much “Closure,” which netted very little savings, if any at all, for the Department of Defense.

So this time around, you will probably see more true base closures and a decrease

in missions for not only the Air Force, but the entire military as well.

Air Combat Commander Gen. Mike Hostage, a strong supporter of a new round of BRAC, said he would like to close “every third base in Air Combat Command” because

Pulling on the roots of the old family tree

T

his cold, rainy, February weekend turned into a personal Sumter family history odyssey after reading about the passing of Anness Osteen Stafford, 94, who was the niece of the late Hubert Graham Osteen, Graham founder of OSTEEN The Item.

Since I’m Hubert Graham II and my son is Hubert Graham III, I have more than a passing interest in learning about Mrs. Stafford’s life and family.

After all, we’re kinfolks.

Her husband was the late Vance “Ellis” Stafford, an accountant who was active in Sumter government and business for many years, and her brothers were Charles “Cowboy” Osteen and Eugene “Beanie” Osteen.

Cowboy and the late Halsell Roberts ran the University Shop in downtown Sumter and introduced the “Sansabelt” pant to aging but active Sumter men. It was a fashion staple for Sunset Country Club golfers, allowing for greater flexibility throughout the midsection.

For young Sumter boys of my generation, it was a rite of passage to transition

from being dragged unwillingly by our mothers to the downtown Children’s Shop, to hanging out with the cool old men at the University Shop.

Her sisters were the late Mae Willis Brunson and Susie Marian Osteen, who was a popular teacher throughout her life in both Sumter and Darlington counties. During the years I was in Hartsville, I ran into many people who asked if I was kin to “Miss Susie” Osteen.

Through the power of “The Google,” I learned that one of Mrs. Stafford’s sons, Dr. Marion Stafford, is a long-time Atlanta dentist who for 15 years was “the Baseball Players Association’s representative dentist for the Atlanta Braves and was also president of Buckhead Baseball.”

According to his web site, “In his free time, Dr. Stafford loves to paint, to garden and to create in his workshop.” This rings true for many Osteens I know (myself included), for we tend to excel at what some may consider creative loafing. As I’ve explained to my wife through the years, “thinking” is the same as “working” for people like us, and “thinking about working” is a big part of that process.

Her other son, John, lives across the river in

Lexington, and between them it appears they have five children and four grandchildren. This means, of course, that I have more distant cousins out there I’ve never met, which is always intriguing.

It also makes me wonder if I’m somehow related to Steve and Pat Stafford, old Sumter friends whom I first met when we played baseball together in the Sumter little league for the legendary “Cromac” team of the late 1960s or early 1970s.

Cromac was a sign company in Sumter. We had orange jerseys with blue lettering, and that was back when the late Charles Gupton did everything at the ballpark, including umpire with one of those oldschool chest protectors that was like a medieval shield you put your arm through.

My father knew Anness Osteen Stafford, but I don’t remember ever meeting her, and I’m sorry about that. The older you get, the more meaningful it is to learn about your own extended family.

The real question is, do they want to hear from me?

of its surplus of infrastructure and the cost of keeping those bases open. Shaw Air Force Base is part of Air Combat Command.

But politically, as the Department of Defense has found out, there is little will in Congress to approve an-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We need to reclaim our public school system The people who are directly involved with Sumter School District have boldly spoken out regarding the atrocities in the direction of our once-wonderful public school system. If you thought you didn’t have “a dog in the fight,” think again. Maybe your children go to private school; maybe you have no children; maybe your children are grown and gone. If YOU live in Sumter — and, of course, pay taxes — you stand to be gravely affected by the direction of and the dissension in our Sumter School District.

We may be threatened by another round of base closures (BRAC) in 2015. My husband, Maj. Gen. (Ret) Tom Olsen, worked diligently for 17 years to avoid Shaw Air Force Base’s closure. One of the important points in the decision to leave open a base is the presence of a strong public school system. Our new grading system alone is a slap in the face to all our students and especially our transient military population. No two teachers will interpret this grading system the same.

The overall dissension caused by our board and the upper level administration has caused a heated stir among those in our community who have any knowledge of the seriousness of the problem. A strong public education system would present a strong sense of unity. Will it take BRAC to get our attention? If so, then it will be too late! If we lose Shaw, we will ALL be affected, regardless of where your children go to school.

Many businesses will be shut-

tered; jobs will be lost; families will have to relocate to survive.

Until we refocus on the children and what’s best for THEM instead of driving our once-wonderful public schools into a corporate struggle, we are going to implode. Business and community leaders need to take a stand for the future of our schools and our community.

We must ALL be willing to cross the obvious divide and reclaim our public school system before it’s too late.

HAITI from Page A1

Governor’s school offers summer camp

Student Calvin Porcher, 22, said he was amazed at the living conditions in the country.

“There is a lot less medicine,” he said. “They don’t have a lot of health care.”

After a major earthquake hit Haiti, most haven’t recovered, Boisvert said.

“I think as many as 200,000 to 300,000 people are still living in tent cities,” he said. “Those conditions are still prone to hurricane weather.”

Student Camara Jordan, 21, was one of the first to ask how students could help.

“The way they live … it’s rough over there,” he said. “We really shouldn’t take for granted what we have here.”

The lecture was a part of a focus on Black History Month at the school. For more information on the Sumter County Adult Education Center, contact the center staff at (803) 778-6432.

FROM STAFF REPORTS

LINCOLN from Page A1 Airmen, Leroy Bowman, the late Willie Ashley and the late J. Philip Rembert. Osceola McKaine, former principal and World War I veteran who died in Europe, was the first black from South Carolina to get full military honors. Politicians include Felder, Kay Patterson and Willie Singleton.

In addition to the four corners, there will be photographs of Lincoln High through the years, as well as some of the elementary schools and Rosenwald schools that were associated with the high school, and other memorabilia.

Lincoln was founded as a grammar school for black children in 1874. That was when the property on Council Street was bought, and Lincoln was erected using funds provided by an unknown donor from the North.

The first school was a frame cottage with only four rooms, named in honor of President Abraham Lincoln. The oldest surviving structure in Sumter’s original school district, it educated Sumter’s black students until 1969-70, when it was combined with Sumter (Edmunds) High School.

After Thursday’s open house, the Lincoln Archives will be open from noon until 6 p.m.

Wednesday through Saturday each week. Felder encourages alumni and others who have memorabilia from the former Lincoln High School to donate them to the archives.

For more information about the Lincoln High School Alumni Association, its History and Archives Room, contact Felder at (803) 261-0167.

Wofford’s 1st black student remembers struggle SPARTANBURG (AP) — In 1964, Wofford College was the first private school in South Carolina to accept a black student.

The 1960s were a tumultuous time across the nation and in Spartanburg.

Al Gray, a Spartanburg native, was the first black student accepted to Wofford. His first night on campus, he was jumped by white students. When they hit him, he hit back.

Wofford College recently reflected on its path to integration with a panel discussion dubbed “Desegregation Decade.”

Gray was joined by Doug Jones, Wofford College’s first black graduate; the Rev. Mike Vandiver, a white Wofford College student during integration and current pastor in the United

Methodist Church; Joab Lesesne, a past president of Wofford College and a teacher and administrator during integration; and Mitch Kennedy, director of community services for the city of Spartanburg.

In 1960, a group of about 200 Wofford students burned a cross

in front of the school and demanded two of their fellow students be barred from campus because of procivil rights activities.

“I was there,” Vandiver, then a freshman, said Tuesday.

The two boys who went to the civil rights demonstration in Orangeburg were arrest-

ed, and, to Vandiver’s knowledge, never returned to campus.

Vandiver was from Anderson. Racism was so rampant in the Upstate at the time, Vandiver’s father locked him out of the house upon hearing his son shared a hotel room with a black man at a religious conference.

Fans injured by Nationwide wreck

BY JENNA FRYER The Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Kyle Larson (32) goes airborne and into the catch fence in a multi-car crash involving Dale Earnhardt Jr. (88), Parker Kligerman (77), Justin Allgaier (31) and Brian Scott (2) during the final lap of the Nationwide race on Saturday at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — At least 33 NASCAR fans were injured Saturday when a car sailed into the fence at Daytona International Speedway, and large chunks of debris — including a tire — flew into the grandstands. No fatalities were reported from the accident on the last lap of the Nationwide Series race.

The crash began as the field closed in on the finish line, and rookie Kyle Lar-

son’s car came upon the wreck and went airborne into the fence that separates the track from the seats.

Large chunks of Larson’s car landed in the grandstands, and one of his tires appeared to fly over the

fence and land midway up the lower section. The car itself had its entire front end sheared off, with the burning engine wedged through a gaping hole in the fence.

Speedway President Joie Chitwood said 14 fans were treated on site, and 14 others were taken to hospitals.

Chitwood didn’t give any updates on their conditions.

The number of those transported given by Chitwood was slightly lower than that given by local officials.

USC falls 62-54 in OT

BY GEORGE HENRY The Associated Press ATHENS, Ga. — Kentavious Caldwell-Pope didn’t want to save his best for last, but he had no choice after struggling in the first half.

“He’s shown all season that he can put us on his back,’’ Georgia teammate Charles Mann said. “This time it just took a little longer than usual, but we got the win.’’

The two Bulldogs gave their team reason to celebrate on Saturday as Caldwell-Pope overcame a scoreless first half to finish with 18 points in Georgia’s 62-54 overtime victory over

South Carolina.

Mann finished with 14 points, Nemanja Djurisic added 11 points and Brandon Morris pulled down 11 rebounds for the Bulldogs.

Georgia (13-14, 7-7 Southeastern Conference) snapped a three-game losing streak.

Bruce Ellington scored 11 points and was the only player to finish in double digits for South Carolina (13-14, 3-11).

Lady Knights’ run ends O-W stifles Crestwood for 35-26 win in LS title game

BY MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER mchristopher@theitem.com FLORENCE — Nearly four minutes had gone by and neither team had opened the scoring in the final quarter until Crestwood High School senior Daniquia Lewis’ bucket with 4:45 to play made it a 3-point deficit, 29-26, with a trip to the 3A girls state championship game on the line for the Lady Knights and Orangeburg-Wilkinson.

It would be all Crestwood had left in the tank, and the closest it came to taking the

lead from the Bruinettes since it opened the second quarter trailing 12-10. The Lady Knights were limited to just one basket in both the second and fourth quarters.

Those would lead to the demise of the Lady Knights, as O-W won the lower state title with a 35-26 victory on Saturday at Florence Civic Center.

Orangeburg-Wilkinson head coach Joshua Staley said having finished runnerup in last year’s 4A title game just fueled the fire and drive for this year’s team to suc-

ceed. O-W, which improved to 27-1, is now riding a 17game winning streak and has not lost to a team from the Palmetto State all year.

“It made the kids that much more hungry because they know how it feels to come back short of the mark,” Stanley said. “They wanted to dig, wanted to fight and encourage one each other and they held each other to a standard.”

Faust helps Terps top Clemson 72-59

BY TODD KARPOVICH The Associated Press COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Maryland head coach Mark Turgeon has implored sophomore Nick Faust to do a better job of stepping into his shot, rather than being too loose with his technique.

FAUST Faust took the advice and scored a season-high 18 points as Maryland won its fourth consecutive game over Clemson, 72-59 on

Saturday.

Freshmen Jake Layman and Shaquille Cleare scored 12 and 10 points, respectively, for the Terrapins (198, 7-7 Atlantic Coast Conference), who are 16-2 at home.

“Nick has put a lot of time into his jumper,’’ Turgeon said. “I thought his floor game was good. He got us into our offense. I thought he defended better.

I am on Nick all the time to be an elite defender and take on a challenge.’’

Codi Miler-McIntyre added 15 points while Harris was 5 for 5 from 3-point range to lead the Demon Deacons (12-14, 5-9 Atlantic Coast Conference).

They shot 54 percent, led by double figures for the entire second half and reeled off 12 straight points to pull away for their biggest victory under third-year coach Jeff Bzdelik.

Durand Scott had all 17 of his points in the second half for the Hurricanes (22-4, 13-1), the last of the schools in the six BCS conferences to get its first league loss.

Shane Larkin added 13 points, Trey McKinney Jones had 11 and Kenny Kadji finished with 10, but Miami was outrebounded 36-35 by the younger, smaller Demon Deacons.

Freshman point guard Marcus Paige added 14 points and eight assists for the Tar Heels (19-8, 9-5 Atlantic Coast Conference), who have won three straight games to build momentum and climb the league standings.

BATON ROUGE, La. — Johnny O’Bryant capped a 24-point, 10-rebound performance by hitting two free throws inside the final 10 seconds of the third overtime, and LSU held on for a 97-94 victory over Alabama on Saturday.

O’Bryant’s strong inside basket gave the Tigers the lead for good at 91-90 with 2:18 to go in the last extra session, and Anthony Hickey added a clutch 3 from the right corner to make it 94-90 with 1:19 left.

That allowed LSU (16-9, 7-7 Southeastern Conference) to finally capitalize on its 10-point comeback inside the final three minutes of regulation and hand Alabama (18-9, 10-4) its first loss in five games.

For the Crimson Tide, the loss spoiled Trevor Releford’s career-best 36-point performance on 14-of-18 shooting, including 4 of 4 from 3-point range. The junior also had three steals, making him the Crimson Tide’s all-time leader in that department with 178.

His incredible play stopped the Orange’s 38game winning streak in the Carrier Dome, the longest in Division I. It was the final game between Georgetown and Syracuse in the Carrier Dome as members of the conference — the Orange are leaving the Big East in July to join the Atlantic Coast Conference.

CN, Pinewood win 3A state titles FROM STAFF REPORTS Austin Ajukwa scored 23 points to lift Cardinal Newman to a 61-45 victory over Hammond to win the SCISA 3A boys basketball state title on Saturday at Sumter County Civic Center.

In the 3A boys game, John Ragin and Joe Armstrong added 11 points for the Cardinals, who finished the year with a 19-10 record. Hammond, which closed out with a 22-5

mark, got 14 points from both Seventh Woods and Spencer Carlson.

throw line for the first three quarters, but made the most of it when it counted, finishing Crestwood off with six free throws in the final stanza, going 6 of 10, never scoring a basket in the final quarter.

“As bad as we played, we were still right there in the game, 30-26, with about two minutes left in the game, so we were there, but we were doing things we don’t normally do so I tip my hat to O-W,” Crestwood head coach Tony Wilson said. “They came out ready and were at this stage last year, so they came out, capitalized on our turnovers and made a few baskets down the stretch to win the game.”

Lewis scored the lone bucket for the Knights in the fourth quarter, missing two free throws with 1:19 when Crestwood trailed 32-26. She led all scorers with 13 points, but was just 4 of 10 from the free throw line, while junior Keauna Williams had six points.

“We knew Crestwood is a very wellcoached team by Coach Wilson, but we wanted to limit the touches with Daniquia Lewis,” Stanley said. “We knew she’s a really good player and kind of made them go, so we wanted to stand in front of the basketball and make it tough for them and see what happens.”

Being that it was Crestwood’s debut on such a big stage, Wilson attributed nerves as a big factor to the team’s struggles.

“I told them if we kept running our offensive sets, we’ll get easy baskets, but we weren’t patient. We were doing things at 100 miles an hour,” Wilson said. “The post player (Vondria Ritter) I didn’t think hurt us too much. I think they made a few more shots than us when they needed to at the time.”

O-W junior Zaria Snipes was a perfect 4 of 4 from the free throw line in the fourth, all timely as they extended the Bruinettes’ lead with less than 1:30 to play. Senior

guys going.’’

The Tigers cut the margin to 35-32 at the break on consecutive 3-pointers by Adonis Filer and Roper in the closing minutes.

Maryland, however, extended its lead to 44-35 on a jumper by Cleare and a 3-pointer by Faust with 15:54 left in the game.

“This shows how solid we can be,’’ Layman said. “We had under 10 turnovers, which is great for us, and we are looking to carry that into next game.’’

Maryland continued to pull away and Alex Len provided a 56-40 lead when he made a free throw after he was fouled while converting a layup with 11:20 remaining. The Tigers could not cut the lead to single digits the rest of the way.

Nabresha Hughes led O-W with 10 points, while Ritter added seven.

Crestwood finished a historic season, making its first lower state appearance and finishing with a 23-6 season.

“It was a very special year with a special team, and coming to the lower state I felt like this team set the standard for future teams to come and have success at lower state,” Lewis said.

The opening quarter was a back-andforth affair for the most part with O-W taking a 10-8 lead; then Crestwood’s offense went quiet and cold right before the half.

After a basket by Hughes pushed the Bruinettes’ lead to 12-8, both teams went a combined 0 for 6 frlom the free throw line.

Thanks to a personal 5-0 run by Hughes, and a bucket by Howard, O-W began to pull away with a 7-0 run for a 19-10 halftime edge. Candace Murray scored the lone bucket for Crestwood in the second quarter.

After O-W extended its first-half run to 11-0 and a 23-10 lead in the third quarter, the Lady Knights found themselves trailing by double digits. Slowly but surely though, things started to click. Crestwood went on a 7-0 run and found itself back in the game, trailing 23-17. The Bruinettes responded with back-to-back buckets to push the lead to 10 and with 2:30 to go, but Crestwood outscored O-W 7-2 to trail 29-24 entering the final quarter.

Junior still confident despite struggles

BY MARK LONG The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — It’s been years since Dale Earnhardt Jr. was a non-factor during Speedweeks.

He finished second in the Budweiser Shootout and the Daytona 500 last year. He was the pole-sitter for the 500 in 2011, the 10-year year anniversary of his father’s death at Daytona International Speedway. He started second and finished second in 2010, weaving his way through traffic in a frantic final lap.

He typically garners headlines and the majority of the attention leading up to NASCAR’s “Great American Race,’’ an event forever linked to his family name because of triumph and tragedy.

This year, Earnhardt has been mostly a footnote.

He qualified 19th for today’s Daytona 500, his lowest starting spot in 14 years at NASCAR’s premier event. His confidence remains high, possibly because he’s glad to be rid of the clunky Car of Tomorrow and the tricky tandem racing that came with it at repaved Daytona.

“We’ve got a good car,’’

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dale Earnhardt Jr., center, talks with a crew member in his garage as crew chief Steve Letarte, right, listens during practice for the Daytona 500, which will be ran today at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla.

Earnhardt said. “Anybody can win, but we’ve got a good piece. If we get that balance right and get the thing to turning good, we’ll have a great shot.’’

Things turned around a bit on Saturday as Earnhardt topped the speed chart for the final practice session.The 2004 Daytona 500 champion turned the fast lap by averaging 198.592 mph around the 2 1/2-mile superspeedway.

David Gilliland was second, followed by Clint Bowyer,

Marcos Ambrose and Aric Almirola.

It was a welcome sight as his earlier results were not so successful.

Earnhardt wrecked several cars during a Daytona test in January. He didn’t lead a lap in the exhibition Sprint Unlimited last week and finished eighth in what boiled down to a 12-car field. He was off the leaders’ pace in his 150-mile qualifying race Thursday and came home ninth.

Those race results tend to

be an indicator of who’s the one to beat in the Daytona 500.

So it’s no surprise that Kevin Harvick, Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth and even Sprint Cup rookie Danica Patrick have gotten more hype than Earnhardt.

Then again, anything can and often does happen in the Daytona 500.

With a completely revamped race car for 2013, the same could be said for the season.

Earnhardt made the Chase for the championship last year, but finished 12th after missing two of the final six races because of post-concussion symptoms.

But running in the top five in points most of the season, and even spending a few weeks atop the standings, provided a big boost for a ultrapopular driver trying to win his first Cup championship.

“I think we were in the conversation last year,’’ Earnhardt said. “Really excited about how consistent we were last year.

We’ve been able to improve as we’ve worked together. We’ve been able to improve steadily over the last couple years. I hope that’s able to continue.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Injured spectators are treated after a crash at the conclusion of the Nationwide race on Saturday at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla.

WRECK from Page B1 Halifax Health spokesman Byron Cogdell said 12 people were transported to Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach and six others were taken to Halifax Health Medical Center of Port Orange. All were in stable condition, Cogdell said.

Lindsay Rew, a spokeswoman for Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center, said its Daytona Beach hospital had one fan there who was in good condition. She said three others they had been expecting were diverted to another hospital.

No fatalities were reported at either hospital. Cogdell said two people taken to the Halifax in Daytona Beach arrived in critical condition, and one of those had life-threatening injuries, both were upgraded to stable condition.

The accident happened the day before the Sprint Cup Series seasonopening Daytona 500 _ NASCAR’s version of the Super Bowl. Daytona workers could be seen repairing the large section of fence where Larson hit, as well as the wall that was damaged in the accident.

“First and foremost our thoughts and prayers are with our race fans,’’ Chitwood said. “Following the incident we responded appropriately according to our safety protocols, and had emergency medical personnel at the incident immediately.

“We’re in the process of repairing the facility and will be ready to go racing tomorrow.’’

As emergency workers tended to injured fans and ambulance sirens wailed in the background, a somber Tony Stewart skipped the traditional post-race victory celebration.

Stewart, who won for the 19th time at Daytona and seventh time in the last nine season-opening Nationwide races, was in no mood to celebrate.

“The important thing is what going on on the frontstretch right now,’’ said

Stewart, the three-time NASCAR champion. “We’ve always known, and since racing started, this is a dangerous sport. But it’s hard. We assume that risk, but it’s hard when the fans get caught up in it.

“So as much as we want to celebrate right now and as much as this is a big deal to us, I’m more worried about the drivers and the fans that are in the stands right now because that was ... I could see it all in my mirror, and it didn’t look good from where I was at.’’

The accident spread into the upper deck and emergency crews treated fans on both levels. There were five stretchers that appeared to be carrying fans out, and a helicopter flew overhead. A forklift was used to pluck Larson’s engine out of the fence.

Chitwood waited by steps as emergency workers attended to those in the stands. Across the track, fans pressed against a fence and used binoculars trying to watch. Wrecked cars and busted parts were strewn across the garage.

“It’s a violent wreck. Just seeing the carnage on the racetrack, it’s truly unbelievable,’’ driver Justin Allgaier said.

It was a chaotic finish to a race that was stopped for nearly 20 minutes five laps from the finish by a 13-car accident that sent driver Michael Annett to a hospital, where his Richard Petty Motorsports team said he would be held overnight with bruising to his chest.

The race resumed with three laps to go, and the final accident occurred with Regan Smith leading as he headed out of the final turn to the checkered flag. He admittedly tried to block Brad Keselowski to preserve the win.

“I tried to throw a block. It’s Daytona, you want to go for the win here,’’ Smith said. “I don’t know how you can play it any different other than concede second place, and I wasn’t willing to do that today. Our job is to put them in position to win, and it was, and it didn’t work out.’’

Some dilemmas are worth having

F

afield & afloat

unny how ideas come into our minds. I was sitting in front of a big plate full of crispy, golden brown crappie fillets on Monday night and crappie fishing just sort of popped into my brain. Not so much that I was planning to go, or had just been, but rather what has occurred in the past 40-plus years that I’ve chased the tasty things.

I can remember the late 1960s and early ’70s just like it was yesterday; how hundreds of boats, all with a wad of cane poles hanging over the sides, would drift around in Potato Creek, Wyboo Creek and White Oak Creek in the springtime catching really nice stringers of Earle crappie. There WOODWARD were times, especially on the weekends, when I swear you could walk from one side of Wyboo to the other without ever getting your toes wet; just hop from boat to boat.

I had two great friends at the time, Ed and Randy Norris, who loved to fish as much as I did, and we’d steal their daddy’s boat and fish all day long.

If you can remember the old metal, 2-part minnow buckets, the part that held the water and the other part that slipped out and drained, then you probably remember the days that I’m talking about. We caught crappie like it was nobody’s business.

And when the crappie finally made it into the bushes to spawn, we’d catch them by the

buckets full from the willows lining Nelson’s Cut and Still Creek.

Those days are gone, along with the willows.

By the late ’70s, the boats in the creeks were gone. I still caught my fair share in the late spring by fishing off of mom and dad’s pier in the White Oak Creek area and managed to pick up quite a few more by casting light jigs to other piers on the creek.

Later in life, I moved on to Jack’s Creek and found out that nobody drifted there, maybe because there were so many stumps and trees it was impossible. Nobody used cane poles; everyone used rod and reels and a slip cork.

I found a few places that worked out pretty well — well enough to keep me in fillets.

I also found out that you could strap a couple of 12-volt light bulbs to the side of your boat and fish all night long. The lights attracted minnows, which, in turn, attracted the larger fish. I eventually bought submersible lights and floating lights, but they didn’t seem to help all that much more.

For a while, I all but gave up on the crappie. I felt like the numbers were down and when it came time for them to move back up into the creeks to spawn, the creeks were almost too low to support them. That was back in the drought years.

I found other interests; stripers, shad and turkeys filled my spring, and I all but forgot about crappie until a couple of years ago in early November, when I was having a conversation with an old friend.

He was telling me how they had just worn the crappie out in

Broadwater. Broadwater? I had never done a lot of crappie fishing in the swamp, but had heard of people who had. It was an interesting concept.

The problem was that he was fishing during deer season, and while I love to fish, I’ve got a ton more money invested in deer hunting and feel like I’ve got to hunt at every opportunity just to feel like I’m spending the money wisely.

I forgot about the fishing until I was in the grocery store, having another conversation, and crappie and the swamp came up again.

Well, it was February and I didn’t have a whole lot else to do, so off I went.

My buddy, Coffee Pot Tim, and I gave it the first try and actually caught a few fish, enough to make me want to go back. About a week later, A.D. Albritton and I went back early in the morning and managed to hit them pretty well.

We got enough for each of us to take some home.

I’ve found a few more places to catch crappie in the swamp since then, but I’ve run into a problem of sorts.

I like to fish for shad, and I like to fish for stripers, and I like to turkey hunt. Now, all of these activities seem to come together at about the same time; one overlaps the other.

So, how do I go about doing it all? I’ve got a “real job” that pays my bills and keeps me from going every day. It’s a real dilemma.

But, on the other hand, it is a great problem to have. Enjoy this spring.

FISHING REPORT Santee Cooper System Catfish: Fair to good. Captain Jim Glenn reports that the best technique on Lake Marion recently has been anchoring in 25 plus feet of water and fishing flat lines on the bottom with just about any type of cut bait. Fish in the 20-55 pound range have been boated with some regularity, and anglers should look on their graph for areas that contain baitfish before setting up. Fishermen need to stay on the move and prospect in different spots. One other productive pattern on most days is fishing suspended baits on down rods along the edge of the river channel on Lake Marion Mountains Area.

Lake Murray Crappie: Fair to good. Captain Brad Taylor reports that crappie can be found around deep docks and bridges by casting jigs in about 20 feet of water. Fish can also be found around deep brush along the main channel.

Crappie are starting to work their way into the mouths of creeks where they can be caught tight lining with jigs and jigs and jigs and minnows. Striped bass: Fair to good. Lake World reports that most striper are being found from the mid-lake on up. The key to locating fish is to look for birds that are either circling or hitting the water. When fish are on or near the surface casting bucktails or pulling free-lined herring is effective, and for deeper fish downlines are the best option. Shellcracker: Fair. Lake World advises that shellcracker are feeding on the lower end of the lake in 4-10 feet of water. Fish nightcrawlers around points with shells nearby. Catfish: Fair. Captain Chris Simpson reports that fishing has been inconsistent, and up-and-down temperatures have resulted in an upand-down bite. Warm days will scatter fish across shallower flats in 15-25 feet of water, and then a front will push them back into 30-50 feet in the channel. The best technique has been drifting with cut herring for blues and channels, and the key to catching fish is being willing to adapt to conditions on the water and search for the fish.

Lake Wateree Largemouth Bass: Fair. Captain

Chris Heinning reports the largemouth bass bite remains somewhat slow, but the fish being caught have good weight to them. Soon the warming air and water temperatures will have bass more active and more moving up to shallows. Lake level is down a few feet and water is fairly muddy for Wateree after recent rains and discharge. Concentrate on rocky points and banks using bright color vibrating cranking hardbait.

Lake Greenwood Catfish: Fair to good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that drifting cut gizzard or threadfin shad across main lake flats near the main river channel, and down in the channel, is the best bet for catching channel catfish right now on Greenwood.

This general pattern should stay the same through late April, and only the depth zone will vary. Right now 10-25 feet of water is the target depth. Much like Murray the weather has made for an inconsistent bite and kept the fish on the move, but unlike Lake Murray Lake Greenwood does not have as broad a depth range and so locating fish from day to day can be much easier on Greenwood. Crappie: Fair to good. Tournament angler Russell Riley reports that crappie are near the river channel and he is catching them a couple of feet off the bottom in 14-18 feet of water. When water temperatures start to warm fish will first move vertically in the water column, and the next move will be shallower towards the mouth of creeks. A combination of jigs and minnows is working. Largemouth Bass: Fair. There continues to be some scattered schooling activity across Lake Greenwood, with bass, striper, and some other species all mixed together. Fish can also be located by following the birds, and bass, striper and white perch can all be caught jigging spoons underneath the birds when fish are not on the surface. Some decent bass are also being caught fishing crankbaits off points, and on warmer days some fish can be found in the backs of coves.

From staff, wire reports

USC from Page B1 to hit a 3-pointer that sent the game to overtime.

It was just the response Georgia needed after Eric Smith’s two free throws gave the Gamecocks a 53-50 advantage with 17 seconds left.

Caldwell-Pope’s basket came with 10 seconds to remaining.

“That last play was a well-executed play, and I just knocked down a big shot,’’ Caldwell-Pope said. “In practice, we go over every offensive play, and that is one of them. I just have to knock down the shot when the ball is in my hand.’’

After Ellington’s 3-pointer with 1:43 left in regulation made it 51-47 and gave South Carolina its biggest lead, the Gamecocks failed to score another field goal for the remainder of the game.

“You have to win the game,’’ South Carolina head coach Frank Martin said. “We didn’t do that. What’s disappointing is the lack of belief that we are supposed to win. That’s what’s disappointing. We were scrambling from the (start), and I have no idea why.’’

Georgia overcame an atrocious performance on free throws, missing 18 of 46 attempts, but South Carolina hardly helped itself by shooting 50 percent on 24 attempts.

The Bulldogs went over 6 minutes without a field goal before Caldwell-Pope’s 3 made forced OT. Ellington missed a long 3-point attempt at the regulation buzzer, but South Carolina got a second chance after the officials ruled that the game had gone to overtime.

During the timeout before the start of extra period, officials retracted their decision when replays that showed the clock had started too early after Caldwell-Pope’s 3.

Another 4.5 seconds was put back on the clock in regulation, but Ellington had his 3-point attempt from the right wing tipped by Mann at the buzzer.

“By rule, it was a correctible error situation,’’ officials crew chief Anthony Jordan said. “We put the ball back in play, giving South Carolina the 4.5 seconds it had lost when the clock erroneously ran. The ball was placed on the baseline at the point closest to where (a South Carolina player) initially received the ball.’’

In overtime, Caldwell-Pope hit a runner to give the Bulldogs a 55-53 lead, and Georgia never again trailed.

Caldwell-Pope, the SEC’s second-leading scorer, finished just 4 for 12 from the field, including 2 for 8 on 3-point attempts. He was scoreless in the first half.

Ellington’s 3 made it 37-35 with 12:17 remaining before Brian Richardson’s 3 gave the Gamecocks their first lead at 39-38 with 8:47 left in the game.

South Carolina went up 51-47 on Lakeem Jackson’s short jumper and Ellington’s straightaway trey.

The Gamecocks were seeking consecutive wins for the first time since they beat Presbyterian Dec. 29 for their fifth straight victory.

South Carolina missed 18 of its first 21 shots in the first half.

Women’s HONOR ROLL adds 3 S

umter Volunteers Inc. announces the 2013 class of the Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter County. In celebration of National Women’s History Month, the organization will add Sumterites Martha Dabbs Greenway, Emily Bolger Mason and Lillie B. Moore Nelson to the roll for their outstanding contributions to their community.

Jo Anne Morris, executive director of Sumter Volunteers, said the public is invited to a 3 p.m. induction ceremony and reception for the honorees on Friday, March 1, the first day of Women’s History Month, at the Swan Lake Visitors Center.

The national celebration of Women’s History Month began modestly in 1977 as Women’s History Week, an educational project aimed at schools in Sonoma County, Calif.

By 1981, Congress had passed a resolution making National Women’s History Week official. In 1987, national recognition of women’s contributions to history had grown so much that Congress expanded the celebration to a month.

The month has been observed in Sumter since 1991 under the leadership of the YWCA of the Upper Lowlands. In 1993, Sumter Volunteers established The Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter County to recognize women who have made outstanding contributions to the area’s culture and history. Initially, 20 women were honored posthumously and Lady Banksiae roses planted in their honor on the pergola in Volunteer Park, formerly located at the corner of North Magnolia and East Calhoun streets.

Since the first observance, from 1994-2012, 73 additional women have been honored and a permanent rose planting installed on the east and west sides of the Sumter Civic Center on West Liberty Street. These serve as living monuments to all the honorees, Morris said.

In addition, their names are listed on the Honor Roll of Outstanding Women of Sumter County which hangs in the foyer of Patriot Hall in the Sumter County Cultural Center on Haynsworth Street. Names are added to the list only during Women’s History Month.

In the year 2000, Sumter Volunteers combined the tradition with a Bicentennial Salute to Women of Sumter. For the first time, four outstanding women’s organizations were added to the Honor Roll along with two famous women from Sumter’s past, Natalie Delage Sumter (Mrs. Thomas Sumter Jr.) and Angelica Singleton Van Buren, President Martin Van Buren’s daughterin-law, who acted as White House hostess during his term, 1837-1841.

The recognition service was held at the Sumter Opera House for that special salute that honored all 60 women and groups. Roses were planted in the Bland Garden of Swan Lake-Iris Gardens.

The ceremony returned to the Sumter Civic Center in 1991 with roses planted on the west fence. With the addition of this year’s honorees the honor roll will number 102, Morris said.

For more information about Sumter Volunteers, Inc., the Women’s Honor Roll of Sumter County or Friday afternoon’s ceremony and reception, call Morris at (803) 775-7423.

MARTHA DABBS GREENWAY If it was an arts event in the Sumter community from the late 1970s to 2008, Martha Dabbs Greenway, retired executive director of the Sumter County Cultural Commission, was probably involved.

A seventh-generation South Carolinian and a Sumter native, she lives in the country farmhouse built by her grandfather. Greenway graduated from Edmunds High School and received a bachelor of arts degree from the University of South Carolina with a major in English literature and a minor in history.

She was the first employee of the Cultural Commission and constantly worked toward the commission’s prime focus to make the arts available to everyone. Working with appointed commissioners, educators and volunteers, she planned and executed Fall Fiesta of the Arts, an outdoor festival of the visual and performing arts, held each October for several years at Swan Lake-Iris Gardens. The festival highlighted local talent and introduced professional performers.

Sumter High celebrates 30 years on McCrays Mill

T reflections

his issue of Reflections focuses on the construction of one of the largest public schools built in South Carolina. The Sumter High School complex on McCrays Mill Road was scheduled to open for student occupancy in the fall of 1983. This research chronicles the construction of the facility and some of the problems encountered in moving massive amounts of instructional materials and assimilating the student body into this expansive structure.

An article appearing in The Sumter Daily Item dated Oct. 15, 1982, noted Sammy that “about 60 percent of WAY the work has been completed on the main building of the $10.2 million high school being built by Sumter School District 17, according to the school’s designer (and primary architect), Gene Matthews.” District and local officials were informed of the recent progress and notified that several projects including “the grounds around the main building and two academic wings” would be finished after students were transferred to the new facility.

Matthews noted the school’s “modern classrooms will have only one small window in the middle of the outside wall. This is to help solve two problems found in most schools: the high cost of heating and

cooling a room with many windows and students who are distracted by happenings outside the classroom… the school is built on a central corridor allowing students to be able to go from one area of the school to the other on both levels of the two-story building, thus reducing the time necessary to change classes.”

Moving to the new high school was described by education officials as a “oncein-a-lifetime affair.” Those involved in the moving process were required to “transport 39,000 books from the library; about 250,000 textbooks, furniture, equipment and supplies.”

The author of Reflections began his teaching career in 1972 at McLaurin Junior High School, then transferred to Bates Junior High, then the Council Street campus of Sumter High and moved to the current, beautiful facility in the fall of 1983. During his teaching career there, which spanned 1983 to 2009, he witnessed the completion of B and C academic wings, an auditorium, an additional gymnasium and numerous upgrades in equipment and facilities. The structure continues to reflect a high level of upkeep that must be envied.

The photos on this page provide images of the construction of this massive and innovative educational structure.

ABOVE: Seen here is the new entrance to the current building, completed a few years ago.

In fact-based films like ‘Lincoln,’ how much fiction is OK?

BY JOCELYN NOVECK AP National Writer NEW YORK — The scene: Tehran’s Mehrabad airport, January 1980. Six U.S. diplomats, disguised as a fake sci-fi film crew, are about to fly to freedom with their CIA escorts. But suddenly there’s a moment of panic in what had been a smooth trip through the airport.

The plane has mechanical difficulties and will be delayed. Will the Americans be discovered, arrested, even killed? CIA officer Tony Mendez, also in disguise, tries to calm them. Luckily, the flight leaves about an hour later.

If you saw the film “Argo,” no, you didn’t miss this development, which is recounted in Mendez’s book about the real-life operation. It wasn’t there because di-

rector Ben Affleck and screenwriter Chris Terrio replaced it with an even more dramatic scenario, involving canceled flight reservations, suspicious Iranian officials who call the Hollywood office of the fake film crew (a call answered just in time), and finally a heartpounding chase on the tarmac just as the plane’s wheels lift off, seconds from catastrophe.

Crackling filmmaking — except that it never happened. Affleck and Terrio, whose film is an Oscar frontrunner, never claimed their film was a documentary, of course. But still, they’ve caught some flak for the liberties they took in the name of entertainment.

And they aren’t alone — two other high-profile best-picture nominees this year, Kathryn Bigelow’s “Zero Dark Thirty”

and Steven Spielberg’s “Lincoln,” have also been criticized for different sorts of factual issues.

Filmmakers have been making movies based on real events forever, and similar charges have been made. But because these three major films are in contention, the issue has come to the forefront of this year’s Oscar race, and with it a thorny cultural question: Does the audience deserve the truth, the whole truth and nothing but?

Just how much fiction is OK? The latest episode involved “Lincoln,” and the revelation that Spielberg and his screenwriter, the Pulitzer-winning playwright Tony Kushner, took liberties depicting the 1865 vote on the 13th amendment outlawing slavery. In response to a complaint

by a Connecticut congressman, Kushner acknowledged he’d changed the details for dramatic effect, having two Connecticut congressmen vote against the amendment when, in fact, all four voted for it. (The names of those congressmen were changed, to avoid changing the vote of specific individuals.)

In a statement, Kushner said he had “adhered to time-honored and completely legitimate standards for the creation of historical drama, which is what ‘Lincoln’ is. I hope nobody is shocked to learn that I also made up dialogue and imagined encounters and invented characters.”

His answer wasn’t satisfying to everyone.

New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd

called on Spielberg this weekend to adjust the DVD version before it’s released — lest the film leave “students everywhere thinking the Nutmeg State is nutty.”

One prominent screenwriting professor finds the “Lincoln” episode “a little troubling” — but only a little.

“Maybe changing the vote went too far,” says Richard Walter, chairman of screenwriting at the University of California, Los Angeles. “Maybe there was another way to do it. But really ... people accept that liberties will be taken. People going for a history lesson are going to the wrong place.”

Walter says he always tells his students: “Go for the feelings. Because the only thing that’s truly real in the movies are the feelings that people feel when they

watch.”

Carson Reeves, who runs a screenwriting website called Scriptshadow, says writers basing scripts on real events face a constant problem: No subject or individual’s life is compelling and dramatic enough by itself, he says, that it neatly fits into a script with three acts, subplots, plot twists and a powerful villain.

“You just have to get rid of things that maybe would have made the story more truthful,” says Reeves, who actually gave the “Lincoln” script a negative review because he thought it was too heavy on conversation and lacking action. He adds, though, that when the subject is as famous as Lincoln, one has a responsibility to be more faithful to the facts.

GREENWAY from Page C1 In 1998, the name of the festival was changed to Fall for the Arts and moved to the Sumter County Cultural Center. This was also the beginning of the 10-year installation art project, Sumter Accessibility, one of the largest of its type in the Southeast, which featured some local artists and brought many others from around the state, the nation and the world. Installation art is placed in public places and is inspired by or specifically related to its site.

Greenway worked on the

project with Booth and Peggy Chilcutt, and Accessibility became known for its unusual art and unusual openings — Mermaids on the Half Shell, A Night of 100 Marilyns, Motown, and Elvis on Parade.

The pieces of limestone sculpture on the grounds of the Cultural Center and the colorful totems on Manning Avenue are lasting pieces of the project.

In the early 1980s Greenway participated in the Community Artist Residency Training — a program that

placed professional artists (singers, instrumentalists, actors) in various places in the Sumter Community; e.g., industry, Mental Health Center, Shaw AFB, local colleges and schools. For years following the C.A.R.T. program, she worked with the local schools to book and schedule artistsin-residence to work within the school systems.

Possible giant mill stokes debate Ramon Villalobos has worked for Cullum’s Lumber for 17 years. He operates the debarker machine where he supervises the raw lumber as it’s fed into the mill. After the cut trees have been unloaded from the trucks, they are placed on conveyor belts that then carry them through to be processed.

State courts Austrian firm whose facility could dwarf local ones

BY SAMMY FRETWELL The State ROWESVILLE — Not much happens in this speck of society, except for the sporadic flow of log trucks rattling toward a little sawmill on U.S. 21 south of Orangeburg.

For years, the mill has operated in obscurity, steadily cutting trees into lumber for market.

Soon, however, a giant competitor from Europe could be on the mill’s doorstep — a prospect that is generating questions about the megamill’s effect on existing lumber operations and the forests that supply them.

Local mill owners say they are upset that the government is offering incentives so a large outside company can compete with smaller, family-owned mills.

Klausner Holding USA’s proposed mill would be one of the largest in the world — if not the largest — rivaling sawmills in the Pacific Northwest and Europe.

Capable of producing an eye-popping 700 million board feet of lumber annually, Klausner’s Orangeburg County mill would be nine times larger than the average sawmill in South Carolina, statistics show.

The Austrian company’s consideration of Rowesville for

a mill has plenty of support from state leaders, who have dangled government incentives for Klausner to locate in South Carolina and create an expected 350 jobs. The new mill also would give landowners another place to sell timber, project boosters contend.

But Klausner’s operation could squeeze existing saw mills out of business by paying more for trees and for the labor needed to harvest them, some of the state’s 18 sawmill owners say. That could make it difficult for small mills to compete, they say.

Klausner’s entry into South Carolina would be akin to a retail superstore’s effect on small-town businesses, some say.

Mill owners and conservation groups also worry that

Klausner would gobble up more woodlands than South Carolina can afford to lose.

One mill operator joked darkly that Klausner’s effect on forests eventually could give Orangeburg area residents a clear view of the Atlantic Ocean, about 75 miles away.

“It really represents a threat,” said Sami Yassa, who tracks forest issues for the Natural Resources Defense Council, a national conservation group. “I don’t think Southeast forests can withstand this kind of market pressure.”

The S.C. Forestry Commission says the state has enough timber for a moderate-sized mill but one the size of Klausner’s 700-million-board-foot operation is another question.

Klausner originally told the Forestry Commission it would

construct a plant half the size of the one outlined in an air pollution permit approved by the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control last month, according to the commission.

“The commission cannot confirm that the forest resource can sustainably support the mill at the 700-million-board-foot level,” the forest agency said in a Dec. 6 letter to state environmental regulators.

Tim Adams, director of the Forestry Commission’s resource development division, said his agency is conducting a study to determine the state’s ability to handle the plant if built to its maximum size.

“It’s just too close to call,” Adams said. “I feel like the wood is there now, but the question is, ‘Is it going to be there in the future?’”

Klausner likely would draw timber from a 75-mile radius around the plant, an area that contains an estimated 114 million tons of pine trees.

The closest existing timber mill is Dempsey Wood Products, the little mill on U.S. 21. It would be surrounded by the Klausner operation, records show. Dempsey, which cuts pines and hardwoods, declined to comment.

NO CAUSE FOR CONCERN

Klausner, an Austrian com-

pany with roots dating to 1918, was unavailable to respond to questions last week about its proposal. The company is described as an aggressive business with state-of-the-art milling processes.

Gregg Robinson, the economic development director for Orangeburg County, said Klausner’s 350 jobs are needed in a county with a 12.5 percent unemployment rate. The mill jobs are expected to pay $30,000 or more. In addition to directly employing sawmill workers, Klausner also will create spinoff jobs for truck drivers needed to supply the mill, he said.

Landowners who have had trouble getting good prices for wood might see a boost in earnings if Klausner locates in Orangeburg County, project supporters say. That’s significant because South Carolina currently has plenty of mature trees available for harvest, Robinson said.

“Timber is quietly one of the largest industries in South Carolina already, and the impact of this project for timber farms and industry is very significant,” Robinson said. “This is right in the wheelhouse of skill sets in our area.”

Gov. Nikki Haley and the S.C. Ports Authority are among those trying to help land the big saw milling operation, he said.

Unemployed complain they need a job to find a job

BY JENNIFER PELTZ Associated Press Writer NEW YORK — Help wanted. Qualifications: Must already have a job.

It’s a frustrating catch for those out of work in an era of high unemployment: looking for a job, only to find that some employers don’t want anyone who doesn’t already have one.

But after four years of above-average joblessness in the U.S., efforts to bar such practices by employers have met with mixed results.

While New Jersey, Oregon and Washington, D.C., have passed laws making it illegal to discriminate against the unemployed, New York City’s billionaire-businessman mayor vetoed on Friday what would have been the most aggressive such measure in the country. Similar proposals have stalled in more than a dozen other states and Congress.

Advocates for the unemployed say

such hiring practices are unfair, particularly to those who have been laid off because of the economic crunch and not through any fault of their own. Businesses, though, say that the extent of such practices is exaggerated, hiring decisions are too complicated to legislate and employers could end up defending themselves against dubious complaints.

Nationally, more than 1 in 3 unemployed workers has been looking for at least six months, according to the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Janet Falk said that when she applied for a public-relations job at a New York law firm two years ago, the recruiter told her she wouldn’t be considered because she had been out of work for more than three months.

The recruiter was being paid to find candidates who were in jobs or just out of them.

“My personal view is that hiring is like musical chairs, and if only the

people who are already on the dance floor are playing, then the long-term unemployed can’t get in the game,” said Falk, who was laid off four years ago. She now runs her own consulting business.

An October 2011 search of New York City-based job listings found more than a dozen that explicitly required candidates to be employed, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer’s office said. A broader review that year by the National Employment Law Project found 150 ads that were restricted to or aimed at people currently working.

As for why, experts say employers may think that unemployed applicants’ skills have atrophied, that they lost their jobs because of their own shortcomings, or that they will jump at any job offer and then leave as soon as something better comes along.

But “‘don’t apply, don’t even try’ is

the opposite of American values,” New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn said when the measure passed last month. She said Friday that she expects the City Council will override Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s veto within a month.

Bloomberg called the measure a well-intended but misguided effort that would create more lawsuits than jobs.

“Hiring decisions frequently involve the exercise of independent, subjective judgment about a prospective employee’s likely future performance,” he said in a statement.

And unlike other characteristics that employers are generally banned from considering, such as an applicant’s race, religion or gender, “the circumstances surrounding a person’s unemployment status may, in certain situations, be relevant to employers when selecting qualified employees,” he said.

Quick-witted MacFarlane set Time for the Academy Awards to host ‘The Oscars’ Sunday

By Candace Havens © 2013 FYI Television, Inc. If Seth MacFarlane's ("Ted," "Family Guy," "American Dad") delivery of the nominations is any indication of what viewers can expect, it could be an interesting and fun night at "The Oscars," which airs Sunday at 8:30 p.m. on ABC. The quick-witted MacFarlane is fast with sarcasm and pop culture references.

Being the host of the Oscars wasn't necessarily in the plans for the writer, director, actor and producer.

Most people know him as the voice of some of the characters on his animated shows and as the writer and director of the film "Ted." His appearance on "Saturday Night Live" revealed he was just as funny in front of the camera. The producers wanted someone who would appeal to a younger audience, and they thought he'd be great for the job.

No one was more surprised than he was when those producers wanted to meet for lunch. "That's one thing I never thought would happen," MacFarlane says. "This was in every way a complete surprise. I didn't know I was being discussed. I didn't know that my name had come up. It came out of the blue, and it made it that much more of a joy. I mean, it sounded like the most fun that any one person could have sober."

There's enormous pressure on the host to be funny and keep the show running. MacFarlane says he's looking back at such hosting greats as Johnny Carson and Bob Hope, and he'll be making a call to Billy Crystal to "seek his wisdom."

"I mean, when was the last time you read a post-Oscar review where somebody in the entertainment

press said, 'What a great host!' The last one I think I can remember was probably Billy Crystal.

"And I think a lot of them have been great but, you know, you go into it knowing that no matter what, even if you put on the greatest show in the world, you're probably going to be lambasted in the press," MacFarlane continues. "So, you might as well enjoy yourself, do the best you can knowing that the outcome is going to be the same. It's a ruthless bit of scrutiny that you're under, so I'm not going to think about that. I'm just worrying about making it as funny as it can be and as fun as it can be."

"He has great charm," says executive producer Neil Meron, who will be working with his partner Craig Zadan on the show. "He embodies kind of a post-millennium host, you know, in that tradition of Johnny Carson, Bob Hope and Billy Crystal.

He is, like, the next step in terms of making the show current. And that was one of the goals that we had in mind, to make this show current."

Biting humor is MacFarlane's shtick, but Meron reports he promised the producers at their first meeting that he wouldn't be the next Ricky Gervais. "Seth said to us, 'Look, I respect the Academy. I respect the nominees. I respect the film business, and I am not going to go out there and do that. I'm going to be irreverent and fun and push the edges, but I'm going to do something that is of quality and standards and all of that.' I think at that moment, Hawk (Koch, President, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences), Neil and I decided we got our guy."

This may be a whole different ball game for MacFarlane, but he approaches it in a familiar way.

"When I work on any project, it's all about whether or not it sounds fun," he says. "No matter the capacity that I'm appearing in, whether it be as myself or in a voiceover capacity or whatnot, it's all about whether the project is something that I want to show up and be a part of every day. So, that's a nice little perk, but it's not something that I sought out.

The project sounded like a blast to me."

The producers are focused on the awards, but they, too, want to have a little fun. Even Koch is determined to make the show more relevant.

"We changed the way the nomination announcements were done, and I think we're going to do the same thing for the Oscars," Koch says.

"We'll still get out the 24 awards, but working with the boys, we've gotten rid of a lot of the 'shoe leather,' what I call it, in the Oscars, and I think they're going to give us a lot more entertainment.

"We're going to have a lot more fun all the way through the show," Koch continues, "if I might say, not necessarily because of what they're producing. But the competition this year is also so exciting. There are nine movies that I don't know who's going to win. I don't know there's a frontrunner. I think all of the categories, there isn't, like, an 'Oh, this is a sure thing.' I don't think there are any sure things this year, so the overall show, with the amount of entertainment that Craig and Neil are putting together and Seth being the host and the movies themselves - I'm very excited. I think it's going to be a different show."
