Industrial and Engineering Technology Division at Central Carolina will complete 200 hours of hands-on training with businesses in the four counties.

CCTC President Tim Hardee said, “The college’s mission is to provide the trained workforce in the fourcounty area.”

Ninety-three percent of CCTC graduates are placed in a job in their field of study within six months of graduation.

“Our job is not to enroll students,” Hardee said. “Our job is to find employment for them.”

It is the job of Santee-Lynches Workforce Investment Board to provide skilled workers for industries in the four counties. Chairman Bobby Anderson, said the board is

“pleased with the opportunity to share funding with Central Carolina” because it is investing in the students, the local industries and the counties.

“If you’re doing the job for the industry, that means you’re doing a good job for the students,” he said, “If you’re doing a good job for the students, you’re doing a good job for the industry.”

The board provided $40,000 for the program, enough to allow 20 students to participate. Currently, there are 19 students in the program who will receive a $2,000 stipend during the semester. The students will complete the program outside of their class schedules either after classes

LOCAL BRIEFS FROM STAFF REPORTS

SUATS gets update on Alice Drive construction

Sumter County Library to host annual author fair Jan. 31

BY IVY MOORE ivy@theitem.com

The Sumter Urban Area Transportation Study (SUATS) Committee will meet Monday at 10 a.m. in City Council Chamber, Sumter Opera House, 21 N. Main St. The committee will: • consider approval of the use of metropolitan planning (PL) funds for a historic district traffic calming study; • receive an update on capital penny sales tax projects; and • receive an update on the construction of Alice Drive.

Sumter County Library continues its tradition of hosting local authors at an annual fair. From 3 to 5 p.m., Saturday, more than a dozen writers will be present to greet and interact with readers in the large meeting room of the downtown library. They will have copies of their books available for purchase and signing.

In addition, said reference librarian Ford Simmons, the authors can answer questions about writing and their publishing experiences.

The writers represent many genres of writing, including fiction, nonfiction, children’s books, memoirs, poetry and more.

In the memoir category, a writers’ collective, the Camden Chapter of the South Carolina Writers’ Workshop, will have several members on hand to talk about their anthology, “Serving Up Memory.”

Running down the list of authors, one sees that many are residents of the Sumter area who have joined the Camden Writers, as they call themselves.

In its format, “Serving Up Memory” is very much like a collection recently published by the locally based Southern Sampler Artists Colony: short essays, photographs, poems and even recipes fill the 234 pages. The topics are generally about southern times in the mid-20th century, as they offer stories of childhood, memories of relatives, friends and even homes past, poetry and photos of fondly remembered days and people.

However, several are about current happenings.

Lee council meets Tuesday, receives audit Lee County Council will meet Jan. 27 at 9:30 a.m. in the main council chambers on the second floor of the courthouse, 11 Court House Square, Bishopville.

Council will: • receive an audit for fiscal year 2014-15 from Tony Boykin of Sheheen, Hancock & Godwin; • hear a resolution to place a plaque at the Springhill Fire Station in recognition of Sam McCutchen: • consider second reading of a contract between the sheriff ’s office and the town of Lynchburg to provide victims with advocate services; • consider second reading of a contract between the sheriff’s office and the city of Bishopville in regards to victim’s advocate services; • consider second reading on an agreement between Lee County and Strategic Capital Solutions LLC to provide grant writing services; and • consider approval of administrator contracts.

signing. Published just last year, the novel has already been picked up for worldwide distribution by Lake Union Publishing in Seattle.

Other writers participating in the fair include Linda Gallishaw and Briana Whitaker, whose books have spiritual themes: in “The Product of a Broken Woman (Blessed and Still Standing),” Gallishaw writes about how, with God’s help, women can overcome the emotional scars of abuse, while Whitaker’s selfhelp book titled “Wait on God” posits that women can find their soulmates through faith.

Callie Parrish, the mortuary cosmetician heroine of Fran Rizer’s mystery series, appears in the author’s latest, “Kudzu River,” described as a “novel of abuse, murder and retribution.”

Rizer will have copies of all five Parrish novels with her.

Sarah Bracey White’s “Primary Lessons: A Memoir” is the story of how she overcame a difficult childhood spent in segregated Sumter in the 1960s to become a successful writer, motivational speaker and arts consultant in New York.

Denise Owen’s “Turtle Gliding” is a young girl’s fantasy of meeting a sea turtle.

Also present for the fair will be D.E. Burdett, Mary Lee, Monique Sandiford, Ross Gandy, Melissa Sprouse Brown and Mary L. Ingram McGill.

Admission to the fair at the Sumter County Library, 111 S. Harvin St., is free and open to the public. Authors’ books will be on sale during the event, and those attending will be able to have them signed and to talk to the authors about their work.

For more information call (803) 773-7273.

Sarah Bracey White, who grew up in Sumter and now lives in New York state, will be among the writers at the Sumter County Library’s local authors fair on Jan. 31.

Topics include many stories and essays that explore how the memories of food, those who make it and the occasions when we eat it have a lasting effect on us. Not surprisingly for a book written

by Southerners, fruitcake, chicken and biscuits find their way into the pages of “Serving Up Memory.”

Other writings evoke familiar places, people and events.

As the group’s founding members write in the book’s

preface, “ ... we bring to the table stories close to our hearts, writing down our own memories or those of others, sometimes writing out of a desire to preserve what has moved us. That perhaps is the common thread that runs through ‘Serving Up Memory.’”

Deas Law Firm renovates, relocates

BY HAMLET FORT hamlet@theitem.com Deas Law Firm hosted a Greater Sumter Chamber of Commerce ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday to announce its relocation to a newly renovated building on Main Street in downtown Sumter.

Owner Garryl Deas is a native of Sumter and has practiced law in the city since 1997.

He received a bachelor’s from the University of South Carolina in 1991 and a juris doctorate from Syracuse University in 1996, but he says he always intended to return to Sumter.

In 2004, Deas opened his firm, excited about the prospect of practicing solo law in his hometown.

In May of 2012 Deas looked to transition from renting a space

at 201 Main St. to owning a building with the idea of expanding his practice. He purchased the building at 109 N. Main St. from the late M.M. Weinberg, a longtime Sumter attorney.

He says recent downtown revitalization efforts helped encourage the move.

“Definitely,” he says of the downtown’s development influencing the renovation and move. “I was interested in purchasing a building in downtown Sumter because of growth and development that’s been going on. I wanted a building so we could be a part of that.”

Deas Law Firm primarily concentrates on personal and catastrophic injury, workers’ compensation, criminal defense and family law.

“I’ve always had a vision and desire to return home

and practice law and give back to the community that gave so much me,” he said.

The new building has 5,100 square feet, and Deas says the size is optimal for planning for the future, specifically with an eye toward expansion. The size is notably different from the building the firm rented at 201 Main St., where Deas estimates the square footage was about 3,000.

“The main difference is that it has allowed us to expand our client base, to take on more clients,” he said. “We have better facilities and more room to accommodate them.”

Howie Owens, Downtown development manager for Sumter, says Deas’s investment and commitment are another step in the right direction for Sumter downtown revitalization ef-

building to be filled with great businesses, and the sidewalks painted with people enjoying life downtown.” Owens says Deas Law Firm is one of those businesses.

Influence of your social network on health is strong

B

y nature, humans are social individuals. Our social groups provide many benefits to us, such as trust and support.

More importantly, they also allow us to accomplish many things that we otherwise couldn’t on our own.

But social networks can also prevent you from reaching your goals. A recent study published by the New England Journal of Medicine showed that family members had less influence than friends when it came to health and well-being.

Many social norms are established within your network and can influence healthy or unhealthy behaviors.

Approximately 57 percent of the 12,000 individuals followed for 32

years were more likely to be obese if they had a friend who was obese, even if that friend lived hundreds of miles away. This suggests that our social links distort our self image and perMissy ception of what is Corrigan considered healthy or acceptable. Eightyseven percent, including 48 percent of obese Americans, think their body weight falls within a “socially acceptable” range.

Many health experts think this perception of what is socially acceptable can be dangerous. While a community can support your social

norms, it is your lifestyle choices that can either increase or decrease your risk for chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. These habits that are learned behaviors from friends and family play a crucial role in your daily life, which ultimately affects your health and well-being.

Social networks reinforce behavior patterns by accepting the identified behavior as normal.

If everyone around you is smoking, then it becomes acceptable behavior.

But if everyone quits, then you are more likely to quit.

We tend to imitate behaviors that we see, so the association with healthy individuals can promote positive health behaviors in you.

Likewise, the association with those who have unhealthy habits can lead you to adopt those same behaviors.

Our social networks can influence us, but we also have the ability to influence our own social networks.

If you are trying to adopt healthy habits, surround yourself with a social network that supports those habits. This network reinforces healthy behaviors and can provide the support necessary for achieving your goals.

Your social network is a valuable part of your health and well-being. Collectively, it influences the well-being of our community.

So ask yourself this. When it comes to my health, am I influencing positive or negative behaviors in others, or am I allowing them to influence me?

Tests imply there is formaldehyde risk in some e-cig vapor

BY MARILYNN MARCHIONE AP Chief Medical Writer Using certain electronic cigarettes at high temperature settings could potentially release more formaldehyde, a cancer-causing chemical, than smoking traditional cigarettes does, new lab tests suggest.

The research does not prove a health risk — it involved limited testing on just one brand of e-cigarettes and was done in test tubes, not people. It also does not mean e-cigarettes are better or worse than regular ones; tobacco smoke contains dozens of things that can cause cancer.

But it does highlight how little is known about the safety of e-cigarettes — batterypowered devices that heat liq-

uid to deliver nicotine in a vapor rather than from burning tobacco.

“It’s a potential red flag,” one independent expert — Stephen Hecht, a chemist and tobacco researcher at University of Minnesota — said of the study. “Under some conditions, e-cigarettes might be generating more formaldehyde than you’d want to be exposed to. But I don’t think we know enough yet. There’s a huge variety in the makeup of these cigarettes and how they are used.”

The study was published Wednesday as a letter in the New England Journal of Medicine. The journal said it had been reviewed by experts in the field.

Formaldehyde is found in many things — certain building materials, disinfectants and embalming fluid. An ear-

lier study found e-cigarettes generated less formaldehyde than regular cigarettes do, but that study looked at just the gas portion of the vapor.

The new one looked at the liquid particles in the vapor, like the spray from an aerosol can.

Some tank system e-cigarettes let users turn up the voltage to increase the heat and the amount of liquid, which contains the nicotine and flavorings, in the vapor.

David Peyton, a chemist at Portland State University, and colleagues tested one brand with two voltage settings. They used a syringe to collect vapor from 10 samples, each one representing several puffs, at both voltage levels.

They measured formaldehyde hemiacetal — a compound created during the vaping process that under certain conditions can release formaldehyde — in the liquid portion of the vapor.

At low voltage, the chemical was not detected. But at the high voltage setting, levels of that compound were five to 15 times greater than the amount of formaldehyde users would get from traditional cigarettes.

Virtually all e-cigarettes use similar materials in the heated liquid, so the finding on formaldehyde “is not brand dependent,” said Peyton, who plans more extensive tests.

Immigrant achieves American dream with Florence restaurant

BY JOHN D. RUSSELL (Florence) Morning News FLORENCE — Businessman George John Poulos left an example of the epitome of the American Dream. His dream came in the form of the 301 Drive-In on West Palmetto Street in Florence, which he started in 1957.

Poulos died two days before Christmas.

The Drive-In, as it’s known by locals, was born out of an opportunity, said his youngest daughter, Doris O’Hara. “He came to Florence to visit his sister Olga Keretsis,�

O’Hara said. “There was another curb service restaurant that was successful here; he saw it as a good business opportunity and opened about a year later with his father,

‘He came to this country not knowing a word of English and didn’t even graduate from high school.’ DORIS O’HARA Daughter of the late restauranteer George John Poulos ‘Papa’ John Poulos.�

Shortly after, Angelo Bakis bought half the business from John. For many years Bakis and George Poulos ran the business until George sold and started the Hot Dog King on West Palmetto Street, just down from the Drive-In. O’Hara said she admired her father because he was the example of the American Dream. “He came to this country not knowing a word of English and

didn’t even graduate from high school,� she said. “He was the American Dream, knowing where he came from and what he has today. He just had that business sense. I’m very proud of him.�

As a father, O’Hara said, he was stern but fair. He taught his daughters the value of a dollar and hard work. When O’Hara was old enough, her father made her work at the Hot Dog King. She said it was not

one of her favorite jobs. “We were spoiled, but you knew where the dollar came from, and we knew where to draw the line,� she said. “His girls were his world, and he was ours.�

George also had a long history of being active in the community as a member of the Transfiguration of Our Savior Greek Orthodox Church and as past president of the church board. For nearly 20 years he hosted a coffee club at the Drive-In, hosting men from all walks of life, before the restaurant opened each day. One of those informal coffee club members is John Dowling, former owner of StoudenmireDowling Funeral Home. “He was just one of the easiest people to be around,� Dowling said. “It’s a wonder that the

world’s problems didn’t get solved in those days. I think he liked us sitting around talking while he got ready for the day’s business. I can’t think of anything that could take away about how I feel knowing George. He always made us feel welcome, even if you weren’t Greek.�

The Drive-In these days is coowned by George Nikolakakos, his father, Nick, and sister, Pauline Kremydas. Nikolakakos didn’t ever work for George but knew him all of his life. “He was a savvy business man,� Nikolakakos said. “If I learned one thing from him it’s that if you see an opportunity, jump on it and treat your customers right. I guess in many ways he was a pioneer. He was also a loving family man and all about God and country.�

Regulators: Haley plan for landfill falls $2.4M short

BY SAMMY FRETWELL The State COLUMBIA — Gov. Nikki Haley’s plan to manage a closed toxic waste dump that threatens Lake Marion falls $2.4 million short of what state environmental regulators said is needed to keep the contaminated site secure.

Haley’s executive budget, released earlier this month, recommends $1.5 million to maintain the landfill near Pinewood in Sumter County, but state regulators said the site needs $3.9 million.

Funds established years ago to pay for landfill management are virtually depleted, and taxpayers are being called on to pick up the tab. The 38-year-old landfill’s longtime operator declared bankruptcy and closed the dump in 2000, leaving a financial settlement that today is proving inadequate to pay for maintenance.

Now, the question is how much taxpayers will have to spend annually to maintain the site so that leaking chemicals don’t trickle into groundwater and Lake Marion. The lake is one of the state’s top recreation spots and a source of drinking water for thousands of people.

The amount that ends up in the final state budget won’t be decided until this spring.

Haley’s office didn’t address directly why the governor is seeking less than the Department of Health and Environmental Control is asking of lawmakers. But her press secretary issued a one-sentence statement indicating that the site warrants

further evaluation.

“Gov. Haley’s executive budget acknowledged that Pinewood must be maintained until a more durable evaluation of the site’s needs is complete and a permanent fund source can be identified,” according to the statement from press secretary Chaney Adams.

DHEC has hired a consulting firm to conduct an assessment of the property.

The $50,000 study, targeted for completion later this year, is expected to look at future state financial liability and the pollution threat the dump presents to Lake Marion and groundwater, an agency spokesman confirmed Friday.

The amount proposed by the governor is considered recurring money that would be in the budget annually, an official familiar with the proposal said.

Money to maintain the site typically is spent removing toxic water that builds up in the landfill, monitoring for leaking chemicals, and operating a storm water management system, among other things.

Two months before resigning as DHEC director, Catherine Templeton told the agency board that South Carolina needs more than $3 million from the Legislature in the next year. The agency’s budget request for next year puts the amount at $3.9 million, DHEC spokesman Jim Beasley said Friday. That would be recurring money that would be in the budget annually, he said. A one-time amount of $2 million was included in the

current state budget, he said.

“We have asked the Legislature because that money is running out,” Templeton told the DHEC board at its Nov. 13 meeting. “When I say running out – the next year, we have a problem.”

Templeton quit as DHEC director Jan. 8 and has been unavailable for comment since.

Agency officials say the site simply costs more to run than the bankruptcy settlement projected.

Rep. Murrell Smith, R-Sumter, said Templeton’s departure could hamper efforts to get funding for the Pinewood landfill. She alerted lawmakers to the money problem early in 2014 and had pledged to push for more funding.

“I saw Catherine as an advocate and ally on how we handle Pinewood,” Smith said.

The DHEC board’s nominee to replace Templeton, Eleanor Kitzman, has not been confirmed by the Senate and faces an intense review that could drag into late winter.

According to last year’s estimates, the annual average operating shortfall for maintenance had been about $4.6 million since the bankruptcy in 2000. The bankruptcy settlement had left an annuity that generated a little more than $1 million a year, but it was costing $5.8 million to operate the site, the agency said last year.

DHEC offered a different estimate Friday, showing that the landfill costs about $4.8 million annually to operate, maintain and monitor.

Smith said funding for the

Pinewood landfill will be discussed this week at a meeting of a House budget subcommittee that he chairs.

Sen. Hugh Leatherman, who chairs the Senate Finance Committee, said he isn’t sure how much money the state should set aside for Pinewood, but he’ll support “whatever is needed – whether it is one-point-something million or three-point-something million, or something greater than that.

“We have got to protect our environment.”

Smith and Leatherman, RFlorence, agreed that the Pinewood dump is a liability the state must take on because South Carolina leaders were not diligent enough in the past to prepare for the eventual maintenance and cleanup costs.

The 279-acre Pinewood landfill, established in 1977 at the site of an old cat litter mine, grew steadily into a major destination for hazardous waste from across the nation until it shut down in 2000.

Millions of tons of industrial garbage, laden with toxic chemicals, were dumped in the old mine from businesses and governments.

DHEC, charged with protecting groundwater and the lake from the dump, permitted the landfill after a former top state waste regulator took a job with the the dump’s operator.

During the height of operations, the landfill’s owner, Laidlaw Environmental Services, was among the most high-profile companies in South Carolina, employing

some 600 people and wielding great influence in the state Legislature. The company’s national headquarters were in Columbia.

The landfill, however, was just a few football fields distant from the nearly pristine Sparkleberry Swamp and popular Lake Marion. That proximity prompted growing concern from area residents and environmentalists that it would one day pollute drinking water and one of the state’s most treasured natural areas.

As a result, the DHEC board in 1994 agreed to require that Laidlaw put up a $133 million cash trust fund to pay for cleanup work at the site. Laidlaw resisted and began pressuring state leaders to let it post other forms of financial assurance. The DHEC board then backed down and the state received only one cash payment of $14.5 million. The company put up a corporate guarantee that later proved inadequate when its successor, Safety Kleen, filed for bankruptcy in 2000. By that time, Safety Kleen and Laidlaw Environmental had merged.

HOMELESS FROM PAGE A1 map of time in different shelters and facilities.

His disability payment of $700 a month wasn’t enough to sustain him. Sometimes he’d rent a hotel room for half a month and spend the rest of the month drifting between family and friends.

He would travel to a different state and stay in different shelters.

“I feel so limited,” he says, in reference to his circumstance. His mother’s apartment complex near downtown has no wheelchair access. Some of the shelters close during the day, forcing him to cruise around the neighborhoods to visit friends and family. One such journey led him to where he is now.

After being a part of a long-term shelter program that was grossly mishandled, and at that time located across the street from the Samaritan House, Willis and many others were forced to leave.

Then something miraculous happened.

An abandoned and crudely painted yellow house at 510 W. Oakland Ave. was given to Sumter Mission Outreach.

Not long after the doors opened, people began stopping by for breakfast and Bible study and peaceful communion with the residents and neighborhood.

Willis was one of them.

True to his patterns, he came by so often he was thought by some to be a resident.

He believes God drew him back.

After leaving another hotel room because he couldn’t afford it, he stopped by for Bible study and dinner. He was asked to stay a few nights and has been there ever since.

He spends his days and nights with the rest of the residents, often leading the morning prayer.

He believes in the power of God’s word.

“I wanted to make that change,” he says, “to grow closer to God and to learn more about his word. Because he means everything, absolutely everything.

“The doctors told me I would never heal, that I would have to live with pain for the rest of my life, and the longer I live, the worse the pain. But I know a doctor whose name is Jesus, and in his time and in his way, I will walk again.”

Willis is drug free and considers his stay at the Mission a step in his journey to find a new way to live with his disability. Over time he hopes to find services that can aid him with educational, housing, medical and financial needs.

Sumter Mission Outreach only accepts persons such as Willis who are willing to commit to a long-term Christian discipleship program that requires them to go through an accountability process lasting as many as 60 days. It includes morning and evening Bible studies, a church of their choosing to attend every Sunday, an equal share in household chores and a 6:30 a.m. reveille and an 8 p.m. curfew.

The residents provide most of the food; the rest comes from donations. They are also part of the ongoing maintenance of the home itself. The house manager, Milton Balls, used to sleep in the office area when it was a vacant and abandoned house before he joined the program and the house was donated to the Mission.

Initially, he moved in “just for the winter.” After a couple of years, he became an integral part of the renovations and day-to-day oversight of the residents. According to Thomas Pena, administrative director and cofounder of the Mission with acting-pastor Walter Phillips, their goal is to reach a financial equilibrium that will allow them to pay a fulltime service worker and a part-time secretary.

They also want to add a woman’s shelter much like the one at 510 W. Oakland Ave. The cost of covering two 24-hour long-term shel-

ters runs an average of $6,000 a month. The expenditures revolve solely around taxes, water, electricity, vehicle maintenance, gas, renovations and general upkeep. The mainstay of support comes from private donations and often out of the pockets of the co-founders and some of the residents themselves.

Like the Samaritan House, Sumter Mission Outreach is often found with nothing but pocket change at the end of the month, and then from somewhere a last-minute donation comes in. But Pena and Phillips believe they are here because God has placed them, and they believe in a cohesive vision of reaching out to the homeless and disenfranchised in a way that mirrors their hearts’ faith.

“My heart has always gone out to help those striving to make a better life, and since the beginning of this ministry, I’ve grown more and more inspired,” Pena said.

“These guys have motivated me to become a better person and to be more open minded and sympathetic to the histories of people I come in contact with.”

The same heart, sentiment and struggle echoes just a few blocks down the road at 320 W. Oakland Ave. Walter Robertson, director at the Samaritan House and a qualified career development facilitator, says that it is a labor of love for him.

“I get to sit here and watch God move and work all around me, day in and day out,” Robertson said.

“Whether it’s the joy of seeing someone move forward or the release of fear and exhaustion because someone has a warm bed to sleep in tonight, I stand in awe and am amazed at God’s handiwork.”

Those are the positive things, a sense of knowing he has been called to help others, and acknowledging that he is the least important person in the building.

Mark Champagne, executive director of United Ministries Emergency Shelter, echoes Robertson.

“It’s important that this ministry has nothing to do with me,” Champagne says.

“That the day Mark Champagne walks out the door things are going to keep going.”

For the most part, United Ministries remains a temporary relief shelter. For those such as Zondre Wethington, and another who wishes to remain anonymous, it has been a stable place of residence to allow them both to move forward in their lives.

The rest of Sumter’s homeless population remains unrecorded. They go unseen amid rumors of hobo-style camps in the woods or small groups that gather together in abandoned warehouses around make-shift fires.

Some of them are so transient they are hardly known to have been homeless in Sumter. Some refuse help and prefer the freedom of the streets. Most stay away from the main areas of Sumter’s business community.

They don’t pan-handle like they do in other cities. Some won’t even cross the tracks to leave their local neighborhoods. And others have their own private illusions as to the reality of whether they are homeless.

Those who come into contact with the demographic the most are Sumter police.

“It can be a double-edged sword,” says Lt. Darian W. Quiroz. “Sometimes the more we interact with them, the more willing they are to accept our help.

“The difficulty is when someone violates the law and we have to arrest them.

But even then, for instance, if it’s their first citation we often recommend a suspended sentence rather than jail time.

“If other issues like substance abuse or mental health come into to play, they are directly addressed in court by a professional counselor.

“We want to improve their quality of life, not diminish it.”

United Ministries Emergency Shelter received about $40,000 in donations last year.

About $10,000 of the donations came from churches, close to $5,000 from clubs and organizations, a little more than $4,000 from local businesses and about $18,000 from individual donors. One individual donated close to $15,000 of that $18,000 to the shelter from proceeds earned from holding three to four yard sales.

Mark Champagne, who has been with United Ministries for almost 10 years, is executive director of the shelter.

He thinks the shelter has been around so long because it provides a place for people to rest their heads the very day they need it. “If somebody found they have no place to go tonight, they could come here. ...” he said, “It at least might help somebody get back on their feet.”

After going through a crisis interview with the ministry, guests are approved to stay in shelter for as many as to 30 days. “Extensions are available, if guests meet certain requirements,” Robertson said.

To qualify for an extended stay, guests have to actively pursue job appointments.

Robertson and Champagne guide guests through the application and employment processes.

“We make sure they have a solid résumé, make sure they’re dressing for success, make sure they identify their career needs and that they are taking the steps necessary to accomplish that career goal,” Robertson said.

The directors enjoy providing warm beds and hot meals at the shelter, but their main goal is to keep guests from coming back.

“In everything that we do, our hope is that we get people past the situation that they’re in,” Champagne said.

When guests do find employment, they are welcome to stay at the shelter until they are completely able to provide for themselves.

“We give them an opportunity to build up the funds that they need so that when they leave here they can secure a stable place and won’t have to return,” Robertson said.

The directors are creating a program called “New Life” that will allow members of the community to partner with a shelter guest to help him or her on his or her quest for employment. Through the partnership, guests will receive help with résumés, dressing the part for interviews and devotion.

Robertson said he wants Christ to be the focus of everything that happens with the shelter.

“We deal with people that have been broken by life, that have been beat down by society and they really need to know that God loves them,” he said.

Robertson also wants the guests to know that “no matter how dark the cloud may seem, the sun is coming up just on the other side of the horizon.”

Robertson wants the Sumter community to know that they are appreciated and that the shelter’s volunteers “are just absolutely amazing.”

Last year, 2,154 people volunteered with the shelter and together contributed 2,375 hours, most of which were spent serving meals to shelter guests.

Meals have to be prepared or delivered outside of the shelter because its kitchen is not properly equipped, according to S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control regulations. The directors suggest that the community donate restaurant gift cards for places that deliver food for those rare days when meals are not scheduled.

The emergency shelter is providing great services for those in need but requires more help from the community to reach Robertson and Champagne’s goal of being completely financially stable.

To volunteer with the emergency shelter, visit unitedministriessumter.org and click the “get connected” tab or call (803) 775-0024.

All volunteers have to undergo South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) checks. The directors will also receive recommendations from community and church leaders because, according to Robertson, the shelter needs qualified individuals who can “handle the wide variety of personalities” of its guests.

Those who are interested in donating to the shelter can designate checks and other items to the United Ministries Emergency Shelter and send them to P. O. Box 1017, 29151.

Any clothing donations should be taken to the Crisis Closet, located in the Crisis Ministry building, 36 Artillery Drive.

United Ministries Emergency Shelter is open from 6 p.m. to 7 a.m. and dinner service begins between 6:45 p.m. and 7 p.m.

THE SUMTER ITEM

GOP presses state bills limiting gay rights before ruling ATLANTA (AP) — A Texas lawmaker would strip the salaries from government officials who honor same-sex marriage licenses.

Other states would protect government officials who opt out of performing gay nuptials.

In Georgia, where lawmakers are considering a bill that critics fear could allow businesses to discriminate against gay customers, the former head of the country’s largest Protestant denomination recently urged lawmakers to rein in “erotic liberty.”

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments in April and could decide

by June whether gay couples can marry, and national opinion polls show U.S. voters increasingly unopposed to gay rights. Yet lawmakers in a handful of states are backing longshot legislation targeting gay rights, doubling down on the culture wars.

Most, if not all, of the efforts are led

by Republicans.

The bills are more political theatre

CCTC FROM PAGE A1 during the week or during weekends.

President and CEO of Sumter economic development board, Jay Schwelder, compared bolstering the economic development of the four-county region to a high-stakes poker game. “There’s a little bit of bluffing that goes on, a bit of strategy, but at the end of the game, the hand with the best cards wins,” he said.

The Work Experience program will give students the opportunity to learn and perfect skills needed to succeed in the workforce and to help improve economic development in the area.

And according to Schwelder, “you can’t talk about economic development without talking about talent.”

Aston Elmore, training director for Continental Tire in Sumter, said that he wished he had had an opportunity to learn relevant workforce training while he was in col-

than serious policy. Few seem to have widespread support among lawmakers, and senior Republicans are not adopting these efforts as their own. In Georgia, well-funded business groups oppose them.

Still, the legislation remains popular with vocal and organized voting blocks in states or parts of the states where they’ve been proposed. But any political points they score could come at a price.

If the bills’ backers manage to force a sharp debate in coming weeks, and the Supreme Court rules in favor of gay marriage a few months later, supporters of the bills would be exposed to criticism that they’ve been fighting for a fringe issue.

“On no issue during my 40-year career have opinions moved as rapidly as they have on the issue of the morality of gay relationships and ultimately gay marriage,” said Whit Ayres, a Republican consultant for Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Tennessee

lege and that the students should take full advantage of the program.

“You also get an opportunity to demonstrate how good of an asset you’re going to be to the individual companies you’re going to see,” Elmore said.

Engineering graphics student Nathan Robinson said that leaders at the college go out of their way to help him and the other students find employment. “They’re helping us get our foot in the door with employers,” he said, “They’re creating opportunities with employers that we might not have considered before.”

Ryan Allen, another student in the program who studies mechatronics, said that the program will provide good exposure for his future career by allowing him to have a hands-on learning experience with the equipment and an outside workforce.

The 19 students in the Work Experience program represent half of 1 percent of the

Gov. Bill Haslam and the National Rifle Association. “When you have conservative organizations like the U.S. military and the Boy Scouts openly accepting gay members, the debate is close to being over.”

Not in Georgia. In a devotional delivered to newly convened lawmakers, the former president of the Southern Baptist Convention urged them to defend the freedom to act on religious beliefs, though he stopped short of endorsing legislation that supporters say would do precisely that.

“We are a living in a society that is on a collision course with a choice between erotic liberty and religious liberty,” the Rev. Bryant Wright told lawmakers. “... Your role in government is about restraining sin.”

Georgia politicians rejected tougher legislation last year, avoiding a showdown that occurred over a similar bill in Arizona, where Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed a measure the Republican-controlled Statehouse had adopted.

total 4,000 students enrolled at CCTC. The students were invited to participate in the program due to their performance in the classrooms and commitment to their field of study.

“They’ve excelled while they’re here with us and they deserve this opportunity,” Hardee said, “These are folks that will be excellent citizens in the four-county area.”

Students average 27 years old at Central Carolina. Hardee would like to lower that average.

“We want to encourage more students to come directly from high school instead of waiting 10 years to realize the

value of that skill,” he said.

Hardee also announced other plans that will assist students in the science, math and technology fields.

He and Sumter School District Superintendent Frank Baker have created a program that will focus on training students for careers in the science, technology, engineering and math fields, often referred to as STEM. The STEM 10 program allows 10th-grade students to study mechatronics at the Sumter Career and Technology Center. When those students graduate from high school, they will receive a high school diploma and a basic certificate in mecha-

tronics from CCTC. Those students can then study advanced mechatronics at CCTC. Hardee said Sumter County Council committed $86,000 toward the operation of CCTC’s advanced manufacturing technology center on Broad Street, the site of the old WalMart. The construction for that facility is currently taking place and is expected to be completed for the fall semester.

The college will also relocate mechatronic, engineering graphics and machine tools computer numerical control programs to the Broad Street in the future.

This year, the toughest measure comes in Texas, where Republican state Rep. Cecil Bell has proposed stripping state and local officials of their salaries if they issue or honor same-sex marriage licenses. In 2005, Texas voters approved an amendment to the state constitution banning gay marriage, but a federal judge struck it down last year. The judge stayed his ruling until an appeals court could consider the issue.

Republican lawmakers in South Carolina, Virginia and Utah have proposed giving government officials or wedding celebrants the right to opt out of gay nuptials if participating violates their religious beliefs.

In Georgia, the debate flared this month when Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed fired the city’s fire chief after learning the chief self-published a book describing homosexuality as a perversion. Reed, a Democrat, said the fire chief never got city permission to publish the book, but the fire chief said he did.

COMMENTARY

Sumter receives another big boost S

umter’s finally getting a nice hotel on Main Street, which means visiting dignitaries won’t have to stay at the old Downtowner any more or out on the Broad Street Extension near the Outback Steakhouse.

This is big news, and once again it’s Greg and Danielle Thompson pushing economic development in downtown Sumter ahead.

There are already small hotels in downtown Hartsville, Florence and Lake City, so it’s encouraging to see Sumter follow this trend of offering quality lodging in newly revived and continually evolving Southern downGraham towns.

Osteen Sumter once had four multiple-story downtown hotels, according to Sammy Way, Sumter Item historian and archivist.

He was at Thursday’s City of Sumter Historic Preservation Design Review Committee meeting to offer some perspective on the recent developments, and to vouch for the architectural historic compatibility of both the new hotel design and the proposed redesign of the old Naomi and Warner building.

As we’ve reported, that building will soon become a combination bar, lounge and movie theater, presumably adding to a growing list of entertainment options for future downtown hotel guests.

If future visitors don’t want to take in a movie, they can always go visit with Roy at the Cut Rate.

That’s more entertaining anyway.

•••

I’m not alone in noticing what has become an epidemic in the ever-evolving use of American language. I call it the “So, Like, Right Syndrome,” and it occurs almost exclusively in verbal communications. When you write such dialogue verbatim, the quoted speaker sounds like an annoying fool.

You’ve heard it before. A news anchor or interviewer asks someone a question that needs further explanation. Most often it’s a reporter doing the explaining on television or radio.

You’re likely to get the now standard, “That’s a great point,” or “that’s a great question.” But what follows, I’m afraid, has become even more irritating.

“So,” the subject notes, “it’s like such and such and such and such and such. Blah, blah, blah. Right?”

I hear it all the time, and it’s almost always someone between 20 and 35 years of age. Both of my children are in this category, and both have been asked not to use “So, Like, Right” in any form — ever — when talking to me.

It would be rude to interrupt the guilty speaker during the glib new process of what was once known as a basic explanation, but this thing’s a pandemic and needs to be stopped.

I know you’re thinking: That’s a great point. So, like, the next time you hear it, just ask them to please stop. Just, like, do your part as an American. Right?

Legislator Cezar McKnight when discussing the scandal of the $123 million in fines the state has paid for its 25-year failure to comply with federal law with regard to deadbeat dads. The question is, can this young reformer do something about this, or will politics as usual in South Carolina prevail?

First the legislator and then then scandal.

Cezar McKnight is a 41-year-old freshman legislator from Kingstree who wants to make a difference. A native son, Cezar went away to school and came back to his hometown with a law degree and a determination to change things. Two years ago, he ran against long-term incumbent Sen. Yancey McGill and almost knocked him off, losing by only 81 votes.

And when Sen. McGill unexpectedly became Lt. Gov. McGill in June of last year, there was a good old-fashioned political brawl in the Pee Dee and when all the smoke cleared, Rep. Ronnie Sabb was Sen. Sabb and McKnight was the new representative from State House District 101.

Now the scandal. Last week, I was in the neighborhood and dropped in on Cezar for lunch after his first week in the legislature. On the one hand he was all excited about the prospects of being in a position to “do something” but a bit underwhelmed by what he saw and heard on his first week on the job.

We talked about some ideas and issues that he might become involved with and then I mentioned the ongoing scandal with the so called deadbeat dad computer system, which I had been researching for a future column.

The facts of the scandal are these: In 1992, the U.S. Congress passed a law that said every state had to build

a statewide computerized tracking system to enforce the collection of child support payments. In short, the system would track deadbeat dads as they moved from place to place with different jobs, thus ensuring that they paid their child support payments.

Now, here it is nearly 25 years later, and South Carolina is the only state that doesn’t have an operational system, and as a result the state has been assessed over $123 million in penalties. Yes, you read that right — $123 million. And the Phil most recent estimate Noble is that we are still as long as four years, and God know how many more millions in fines away from having a workable system.

The more we talked, the more exercised and upset Cezar became. By the time the cheese cake dessert arrived, he was so livid about the whole thing that I got to eat all the cheesecake that he had ordered for us to share. He didn’t even notice.

On Tuesday after we talked on Friday, as soon as he was back in Columbia for the beginning of the Legislative week, Cezar went right to work. He tracked down and called the folks at Department of Social Services who are responsible and within hours he had the latest information on what was happening.

He was outraged by what he found.

He forwarded me the information with a one sentence email: “Someone needs to go to jail.” Later on the phone he elaborated in comments that could not be printed in a family newspaper.

So here it is folks. This is the opening scene of a South Carolina version of the great classic movie with Jimmy Stewart, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. In both cases, an eager,

well-intentioned young man comes to the capital and is outraged by what he finds. In S.C., it’s obvious incompetence at best and outright fraud at worst — $123 million in fines when we as a state don’t have the money to provide adequate nutrition and health care for our children or decently paid teachers in “minimally adequate” schools.

I don’t know what is going to happen now. Will Cezar be like Jimmy Stewart, with right winning out in the end? Or will all of this just get lost in the shuffle of Columbia.

I know what should happen — see Cezar’s jail comment above — and I know what Cezar wants to see happen. But politics as usual in Columbia is, well, politics as usual in Columbia.

I’m not much for happy fairy tale endings, see Mr. Smith movie for that; after all it was a Hollywood movie and not real life.

But this is about something really important. It’s not about Cezar or computer systems or corruption or incompetence or politics as usual.

It’s about us and what kind of government we will have.

The question is fundamental and basic: Can a decent person who wants to do the right thing make a difference and make a change in South Carolina state government, when things are so clearly and so obviously wrong and in need of real change?

I’m not sure what the answer will be; it’s an open question. But as for me, I’m betting on Cezar.

Stay tuned.

S.C. Legislature not expected to find education fix this year COLUMBIA (AP) — Legislators are unlikely to respond this year to the state Supreme Court’s order to fix the education system that the justices say fails South Carolina’s poor, rural children.

The GOP-controlled Legislature and Gov. Nikki Haley have asked for a rehearing on last November’s decision, with legislators arguing both that the state’s high court overstepped its authority in telling them to do anything and that the justices need to provide instruction on what to do. The justices ordered legislators and school officials to collectively fix the system but mandated no particular method for changing it and no timetable for doing so.

“They overstepped their bounds and didn’t tell us something we don’t already know,” said Senate Majority Leader Harvey Peeler, R-Gaffney.

Haley’s complaint is that the

court didn’t give credit for the funding changes the Legislature passed in the budget last year at her recommendation.

The ruling came two years after attorneys for the state and the rural districts that first sued in 1993 re-argued their appeal of a December 2005 lower court ruling that gave each side a partial victory.

“To say we have issues in rural areas, I totally agree with. ... They didn’t account for what we already started to do,” Haley said of the additional $180 million put toward education in the first of what she calls her multi-year education initiative. “That needs to be acknowledged.”

The Legislature approved similar increases to education the previous two years. Yet state spending on K-12 public schools is just this year back to the spending levels of 2007-08, before the Great Recession-era

cuts, according to data from the state Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office.

Last year’s biggest change was adding a “weighting” for poverty in the funding formula, providing more to educate poor students. Haley’s backing got Republicans on board with an idea advocated for years by Democrats and education advocates. The budget also put more toward reading coaches and technology in rural schools.

The court did acknowledge many piecemeal changes since 1993, including more money, new programs and various reform laws. But in discounting lawmakers’ contention the case was moot, the justices noted state money is still distributed to districts based on laws passed in 1977 and 1984. The justices found the state’s fractured education funding system denies opportunities to students in poor, rural districts.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Get involved EUGENIA LAST in something that you feel passionately about. It’s time to make some personal changes that will improve your standard of living and bring you closer to someone you love. Emotions will surface and are best used lovingly, not disruptively.

Dominating the Duals

KEITH GEDAMKE / THE SUMTER ITEM

Sumter’s Trevor Keffer gains an advantage over his Battery Creek opponent in their 120-pound match in the Gamecock Duals on Saturday at the SHS gymnasium. Keffer won by pin as the Gamecocks went on to win the Gamecock Duals for the first time in its 11-year history.

Sumter wrestling team wins host event for first time in school history

BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennis@theitem.com The Sumter High School wrestling program first played host to the Gamecock Duals in 2005. During that time, it had never won the tournament.

Until Saturday.

The 11th time was the charm for the

Gamecocks as they rolled through the duals, winning all six of their matches on Friday and Saturday at the SHS gymnasium. They defeated Dutch Fork 48-21 in the championship match on Saturday.

“This was something that we were wanting to do,” said Sumter head coach Cody Slaughter, whose team improved to 28-6 in dual matches. “We

told the kids no other Sumter team had done this before, and we wanted it to be this team to do it.”

After rolling to four easy victories on Friday, the Gamecocks faced Battery Creek in its semifinal match on Saturday. Battery Creek held a 14-9 lead after the first five matches, but SHS won the final nine matches, winning by a score of 54-14.

Walker Elliott in the 113-pound class, Trevor Keffer at 120, Caleb Jackson at 132, Mac Mota at 152, Donovan Jones at 160 and David Pringle at 220 all won by pin.

The championship match pitted Sumter, ranked No. 10 among 4A schools by scmat.com, against No. 12

Booker, No. 1 UK have no trouble with Carolina

Hall of Famer ‘Mr. Cub’ passes away at age 83

BY PETE IACOBELLI The Associated Press COLUMBIA — Devin Booker found a way to make an impact for No. 1 Kentucky.

He did it again Saturday, leading the Wildcats (19-0, 6-0 Southeastern Conference) with 18 points in a 58-43 victory at South Carolina.

The win matched the team’s best start under coach John Calipari and kept the Wildcats from another “House of Horrors” moment at the Colonial Life

Arena where they’d lost three of their previous five games.

Booker scored seven points in Kentucky”s 14-0 run that spanned both halves, closing the surge with a 3-pointer that put the Wildcats ahead 37-24 with 18:28 remaining.

“I just try to find him,” said reserve point guard and fellow freshman Tyler Ulis, who led the Wildcats with six assists — several to Booker. “We came to school together. He gets the job

“I’m still shaking right now,” the junior told reporters after making his way through backslapping Littlejohn Coliseum fans wanting selfies.

Smith’s game-winner was the only basket in the final five minutes of an ugly game between two teams toward the bottom of the ACC standings. The Tigers trailed the whole way in a 59-55 loss to Florida State on Monday.

Wake Forest (9-11, 1-6) lost for the 37th time in its last 39 ACC road games, but perhaps no loss has been more

Even as the Chicago Cubs lost one game after another, Ernie Banks never lost hope.

That was the charm of “Mr. Cub.” Banks, the Hall of Fame slugger and two-time MVP who always maintained his boundless enthusiasm for baseball despite decades of playing on miserable teams, died Friday night.

He was 83.

The Cubs announced Banks’ death, but did not provide a cause.

BANKS Banks hit 512 home runs during his 19-year career and was fond of saying, “It’s a great day for baseball. Let’s play two.” In fact, that sunny finish to his famous catchphrase adorns his statue outside Wrigley Field.

“His joyous outlook will never be forgotten by fans of the Cubs and all those who love baseball,” Commissioner Bud Selig said in a statement.

And on a cold winter night Friday in Chicago, the ballpark marquee carried the sad news for the entire town to see: Ernie Banks. “Mr. Cub.” 19312015.

“Words cannot express how important Ernie Banks will always be to the Chicago Cubs, the city of Chicago and Major League Baseball. He was one of the greatest players of all time,” Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts said in a statement.

“He was a pioneer in the major leagues. And more importantly, he was the warmest and most sincere person I’ve ever known.”

“Approachable, ever optimistic and kind hearted, Ernie

Smith’s putback gives Tigers 59-57 victory

BY JEFFREY COLLINS The Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Clemson’s Josh Smith (33) makes the game-winning basket with 0.5 seconds remaining in the Tigers’ 59-57 triumph against Wake Forest on Saturday at Littlejohn Coliseum in Clemson.

CLEMSON — Of course Clemson would have an unlikely hero in an unlikely win where the Tigers led for exactly 24 seconds.

Josh Smith’s offensive rebound and layup with 0.5 seconds left gave Clemson (11-8, 3-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) a 59-57 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday. It was just the 15th basket Smith has made in 19 games.

He was so nervous he released the shot down near his stomach, as soon as the rebound hit his hands.

MR. CUB FROM PAGE B1 Banks is and always will be Mr. Cub. My family and I grieve the loss of such a great and good-hearted man, but we look forward to celebrating Ernie’s life in the days ahead.”

In a statement Saturday, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama expressed their condolences “to the family of Ernie Banks, and to every Chicagoan and baseball fan who loved him.” The president said Banks became known as much for his optimism and love of the game as his home runs and backto-back National League MVPs. “As a Hall-of-Famer, Ernie was an incredible ambassador for baseball, and for the city of Chicago,” President Obama said. “He was beloved by baseball fans everywhere, including Michelle, who, when she was a girl, used to sit with her dad and watch him play on TV. And in 2013, it was my honor to present Ernie with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

“Somewhere, the sun is shining, the air is fresh, his team’s behind him, and Mr. Class — “Mr. Cub” — is ready to play two.”

Though he was an 11-time All-Star from 1953-71, Banks never reached the postseason. The Cubs, who haven’t won the World Series since 1908, finished below .500 in all but six of his seasons and remain without a pennant since 1945.

Still, he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1977, the first year he was eligible, and was selected to baseball’s All-Century team in 1999.

“After hitting his 500th home run, Ernie summed up his feelings by saying: ‘The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money.’” Hall of Fame president Jeff Idelson said in a statement.

“That was the essence of Ernie Banks. There was no one who adored the Cubs and the city of Chicago more than Ernie.”

Banks’ infectious smile and non-stop good humor despite his team’s dismal record endeared him to Chicago fans, who voted him the best player in franchise history. One famous admirer, actor Bill Murray, named his son Homer Banks Murray.

In 2013, Banks was presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedom — by

Obama, a noted White Sox fan,. The award is one of the nation’s highest civilian honors.

“Ernie Banks was more than a baseball player. He was one of Chicago’s greatest ambassadors. He loved this city as much as he loved — and lived for — the game of baseball,” Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said. “This year, during every Cubs game, you can bet that No. 14 will be watching over his team. And if we’re lucky, it’ll be a beautiful day for not just one ballgame, but two.”

Banks’ No. 14 was the first number retired by the Cubs, and it hangs on a flag from the left-field foul pole at the old ballpark.

“I’d like to get to the last game of the World Series at Wrigley Field and hit three homers,” he once said. “That was what I always wanted to do.”

But even without an opportunity to play on the October stage, Banks left an indelible mark that still resonates with fans and athletes from all sports.

“Ernie Banks... We are going to all miss you. #Legend,” quarterback Russell Wilson tweeted as he and the Seattle Seahawks were getting ready to defend their Super Bowl title.

AUSTRALIAN OPEN

4 American women into 4th round

BY JOHN PYE The Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia— Serena Williams loves having Venus back to keep her company in the second week of a Grand Slam, and credits her older sister with giving her the motivation to reach the fourth round of the Australian Open.

The Williams siblings, with 25 Grand Slam titles between them, will have a couple of Madisons joining them, too.

Madison Keys had a 6-4, 7-5 upset win over two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova on Saturday night, and Madison Brengle beat Coco Vandeweghe 6-3, 6-2 in an allU.S. third-round match. The two Madisons will meet in the round of 16, meaning one of them will become a first-time Grand Slam quarterfinalist.

The last time four or more American women reached the second week in Australia was in 2003, when Keys’ coach Lindsay Davenport was playing and Serena beat Venus in one of their Williams-sister finals. That can’t happen this time, because they’re in the same half of the draw.

Serena Williams, who is aiming for her sixth Australian and 19th Grand Slam title, has long been the standard bearer and has been asked all too often what has happened to the depth of U.S. women’s tennis.

“I think American women’s tennis has come so far. We have so many options now, which is so great because for years I had to answer the question: ‘I don’t know, I don’t know,’” the No. 1-ranked Williams said after her 4-6, 6-2, 6-0 win over No. 26-ranked

CAROLINA FROM PAGE B1 done. He can shoot the ball so if I need to outlet, he’s going to be there.”

He was against the Gamecocks (10-8, 1-5), hitting six of his nine shots. Booker has made 13 of his 20 shots from long range since SEC play began, but said he’s been kept grounded by Calipari’s reminders not to force things and let the game come to him.

“I feel like that’s a coach’s job, you can’t let somebody just feel like they’re going to take over,” Booker said of staying humble despite success.

Aaron Harrison added 13 points for Kentucky, which tied the mark of 19-0 in Calipari’s debut season of 2010.

That streak was ended right here, a 68-62 stunner and gave Wildcat freshmen — and now NBA standouts — John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins their first college losses.

Just last season, a Kentucky team headed to the national championship game lost 72-67 only weeks before on this same floor.

The Wildcats turned up the defense to make sure that didn’t happen this time after Sindarius Thornwell hit a 3-pointer for a 24-23 South Carolina lead with 4:31 left that sent the fans into a frenzy.

Ulis started the comeback for Kentucky with a steal and basket before Booker made two fouls shots and a dunk and the Wildcats were on their way.

Thornwell had 11 points for the Gamecocks, who shot 4 for 27 in the final 24 minutes.

Thornwell said South Carolina needed to take advantage of the situation instead of watching Kentucky pull away.

“That hurt us a lot,” he said.

“It would’ve been good if we could build off that shot and gain momentum.”

Duane Notice, South Carolina’s leading scorer this season, was held to two points, nine fewer than his average, and missed all five field goal tries.

This one seemed as big a mismatch with the Harrison twins and bevy of big bodies to control the struggling Gamecocks.

Still, it took until late in the opening half before the Wild-

Elina Svitolina. “Just so many American players that are playing really, really well. So much to look forward to.”

None more, in her mind, than Venus’ return to the fourth round at a major for the first time since Wimbledon in 2011.

When Serena walked onto Rod Laver Arena on Saturday, Venus was down a set and a break on nearby Margaret Court Arena. Venus, who was diagnosed with an auto-immune condition called Sjogren’s syndrome in 2011 and has struggled at the highest level ever since, rallied for a

BESTING THE BARON

John Calipari is ahead of Kentucky great Adolph Rupp as far as winning percentage at the start of his tenure on campus with 171 wins his first 208 games. Rupp won 169 games in that same stretch.

“When you have good players,” Calipari said. “Craziness, you’re going to win a lot of games.”

SEEING IMPROVEMENT

South Carolina coach Frank Martin was happy with his team’s improved effort from earlier in the week in a loss to Tennessee. Then he said his players were all driving separate cars on the highway. This time, the fire, resolve and togetherness was evident at practices and in the game.

“I couldn’t be prouder of the fight, attention to detail,” Martin said. “It’s hard to beat anyone, including the No. 1 team in the country, shooting 22 percent. But the fight is where it needs to be.”

TIP-INS

Kentucky: The Wildcats have found their range from the 3-point line, hitting 68 of 153 (39 percent) over their past eight games. Kentucky has hit a higher rate in SEC games (43 of 98, 44 percent) South Carolina: The Gamecocks fell to 1-11 against teams ranked No. 1 by The Associated Press.

Kentucky travels to Missouri on Thursday night.

“I thought, ‘Wow, she’s been through so much with her illness, with everything that she’s had to do. Gosh, if she can do it, I’m perfectly healthy, I’m fine. I should be able to do it, too,’” Serena Williams said.

On the men’s side, topranked Novak Djokovic and defending champion Stan Wawrinka advanced with straight-set wins, while U.S. Open finalist Kei Nishikori and Wimbledon semifinalist Milos Raonic continued their

quests for a first major title.

Four-time Australian Open winner Djokovic beat Fernando Verdasco 7-6 (8), 6-3, 6-4 in the first night match on Rod Laver, then asked the crowd of 15,000 to help him sing Happy Birthday to his mother, Dijana.

“It’s my mom’s birthday, can you sing happy birthday?” he asked the crowd. He sang the whole song live on camera and then left the court to start preparing for a match against Gilles Muller, who beat No. 19 John Isner 7-6 (4), 7-6 (6), 6-4.

CLEMSON FROM PAGE B1 painful than this.

“It’s wearing on me,” firstyear Demon Deacons coach Danny Manning said.

The Demon Deacons took the lead 3-0 on Darius Leonard’s 3-pointer a minute in.

They didn’t give up the lead until Donte Grantham made one of two free throws with 58.6 seconds left.

Wake Forest tied it again at 57 with 35.1 left when Devin Thomas made one of two from the foul line. The Demon Deacons rebounded the second miss and had a chance to hold the ball for a potential game-winning shot. But Codi Miller-McIntyre turned it over with 25 seconds to go.

That was after Wake Forest led 55-51 with five minutes left. The Demon Deacons wouldn’t score again, missing all five of their shots, turning the ball over twice and making just two of four free throws.

Clemson didn’t fare much better, missing five shots before Smith’s game-winner.

But the Tigers made four of six free throws to make up the difference.

Thomas led everyone with 17 points and 12 rebounds, but shot just 5-of-10 on free throws. Miller-McIntyre scored 14 points, but was just 5-of-15 from the field.

Grantham led Clemson with 13 points and seven re-

bounds. Jordan Roper added 12 points.

Clemson coach Brad Brownell said his team could have easily let things get out of hand when Wake Forest led 11-2 less than four minutes in.

“We need to try to find a way to fight through and win a game at home when it hasn’t been easy,” Brownell said.

It was an ugly win for the Tigers, who shot 35.1 percent after coming into the game 14th in the 15-team ACC, shooting 41.5 percent a game. Free throws nearly did Clemson in again after shooting 16-of-31 on foul shots in Monday’s loss to Florida State. The Tigers were 15 of 27 from the line Saturday.

GRINDING WINS

In its seven ACC games so far, Clemson has scored 60 points or more just twice.

The Tigers are still really missing K.J. McDaniels, who was first-team all-ACC last season, averaging 17 points a game.

Brownell said he wants to see more offense, but he’s not sure he will get his wish.

“We’ve got to get better offensively. Otherwise you are in these grinders all the time. We lost one to Florida State and won one today,” Brownell said.

win over Jarkko Nieminen and will have a score to settle in the next round against Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, who beat him in the first round of the French Open last year.

No. 5 Nishikori beat Steve Johnson 6-7 (7), 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 and will next meet former French Open finalist David Ferrer, who struggled to finish off No. 18 Gilles Simon in four sets. No. 8 Raonic fired 22 aces in a 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 win over Benjamin Becker and will next play No. 12 Feliciano Lopez.

Serena Williams will have to be top of her game when she meets No. 24 Garbine Muguruza, who beat her in the second round at the French Open last year.

In the other fourth-round match in that quarter, twotime champion Victoria Azarenka will meet 2014 finalist Dominika Cibulkova.

Azarenka, who is unseeded because of an injury-interrupted 2014, had a 6-4, 6-4 win over No. 25 Barbora Zahlavova Strycova, while Cibulkova beat No. 19 Alize Cornet 7-5, 6-2.

Venus Williams was delighted after her win, beaming a smile as she turned to wave to all sides of the stadium and doing some dance moves to the loud music. She said Serena had helped her, too.

“We’ve had the fortunate relationship to be able to motivate each other and grow from each other,” she said.

The 34-year-old, seven-time major winner is determined to make sure her run doesn’t end in the next round against sixth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska.

“I like to win titles ... that’s what I play for,” she said.

“We’re not just finishing or closing, and we have to be better about that,” Manning said.

Missouri had a chance to take the lead with 3.3 seconds remaining with Wes Clark at the free throw line, but both of the sophomore guard’s attempts rattled off the rim and missed.

Arkansas (15-4, 4-2) moved to 2-1 on the road in Southeastern Conference play this season and 12-36 away from Bud Walton Arena under fourth-year coach Mike Anderson.

TEXAS A&M 67 TENNESSEE 61

North Carolina’s Marcus Paige, right, goes to the basket against Florida State’s Devon Bookert during the Tar Heels’ 78-75 victory on Saturday in Chapel Hill, N.C.

North Carolina holds off Florida State 78-74 CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina coach Roy Williams has spent much of this season trying to drag more intensity and toughness out of Brice Johnson.

When Johnson plays the way he did Saturday, it’s easy to see why the Hall of Fame coach won’t stop pushing, either.

Johnson had 18 points and 14 rebounds to help the 15thranked Tar Heels survive a 35-point performance from Florida State freshman Xavier Rathan-Mayes and beat the Seminoles 78-74.

The slender 6-foot-9 junior played through back tightness that had him standing at the end of the bench when he subbed out instead of sitting with teammates. He also aggravated his back on a hard fall in the first half, but finished through contact and rebounded in traffic on a day when the Tar Heels (16-4, 6-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) needed help for an injury-depleted backcourt.

Johnson earned his fourth double-double despite playing just 23 minutes due to firsthalf foul trouble. He has hit 15 of 20 shots in the past two games, though Williams was critical of Johnson’s inconsistent effort after Wednesday’s win at Wake Forest.

Not Saturday.

Paige scored 19 points to help the Tar Heels win their fifth straight league game. They led nearly all day, though RathanMayes hit three 3-pointers in the final 36 seconds to keep FSU (10-10, 2-5) in it to the horn.

Rathan-Mayes’ 35 points were a school freshman record and were the most by a UNC opponent in the Smith Center in nearly nine years.

His last 3 cut the deficit to 75-72 with about 17 seconds left, but FSU got no closer.

MIAMI 66 SYRACUSE 62 SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Tonye Jekiri had 13 points and 15 rebounds, Angel Rodriguez added 12 points and eight assists, and Miami held off Syracuse 66-62 on Saturday.

Tied 26-all at halftime, Miami (14-5, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) started the second half with a 16-6 spurt before the Orange (14-6, 5-2) rallied late.

Syracuse moved within 60-59 on a lefty shot along the baseline by Rakeem Christmas with 52.6 seconds left.

After Manu Lecomte sank a long 3 from the top of the key with 19.9 seconds to go, Trevor Cooney answered with one of his own at 12.5 seconds to keep the Orange within a point.

Rodriguez then sank two free throws and the Hurricanes survived after Cooney missed a 3-point attempt with 4.4 seconds left.

Syracuse lost the game at the foul line, making only 8 of 19 and also committed 13 turnovers.

Christmas led the Orange with 23 points and Cooney had 14 as Syracuse lost for the second time at home this season. Tyler Roberson added 10 points and 14 rebounds.

Davon Reed hit two 3-pointers during Miami’s opening spurt in the second half and finished with 11. Miami finished with 10 3-pointers in 29 attempts.

Miami led 60-55 after Rodriguez penetrated and found Sheldon McClellan for consecutive alley-oops and then dished to Jekiri for a layup with 2:19 to go.

Holloway developing into solid starter at Benedict

A

untrell Holloway’s dedication is paying off.

The freshman out of Sumter High School has been starting for the Benedict College men’s basketball team.

“He’s been working very hard,” head coach Fred Watson said. “He’s bringing physicality. His skill set is pretty solid.

He’s developed to where he’s competing at a high level.”

“He brings it every game,” HOLLOWAY he said. “He brings it every practice.”

Holloway started 10 of 14 games, including six consecutive beginning in January. He entered Saturday’s game averaging nearly 13

minutes, 2.4 points and 1.2 rebounds. He was second on the team with six blocked shots.

Barbara He had a Boxleitner seasonKEEPING UP high 10 points, his lone outing in double figures, against Kentucky State University on Jan. 15. He had a season-high four rebounds and added four points against LeMoyne-Owen College.

“I can’t complain. I just keep working hard every day at practice,” Holloway said. “He (Coach) said if you work hard and if you’re dedicated to the

plan, you’ll get the playing time.”

Watson said the 6-foot-8 Holloway, one of four Tigers at least that tall, gives the team a big body on the court. “He’s strong enough.

He’s physical enough,” the coach said.

Despite his size, Holloway is at a height disadvantage at times. “I run into some people who are 6-11 or 6-10,” he said. “It’s a little shocking.”

He has been playing center, but Watson said he wants Holloway to drop some weight so that he can play power forward. “We want him to lose a few to be a little more athletic,” Watson said.

Sumter’s Walker Elliott prepares to take down his Battery Creek opponent in their 113-pound match in the Gamecock Duals on Saturday at the SHS gymnasium. Walker won by pin.

SUMTER FROM PAGE B1 Dutch Fork. The Silver Foxes won by decision at 195 to go up 3-0. They chose to forfeit to Pringle at 220, sending their 220-pounder up against SHS heavyweight Alex Perales.

Perales came away with a 5-4 victory instead, putting Sumter up 9-3.

“I felt like that was a big turning point for us,” Slaughter said of Perales’ victory. “He wrestled a really good match and that win seemed to carry over for us.”

Dutch Fork actually won the next two matches, one by forfeit and one by pin, to go up 15-9. The Gamecocks rolled from that point. It started with a pin by Keffer. Brian Budden won a major decision at 126 fol-

lowed by a technical fall for five points by Jackson to make it 24-15.

Matthew Browder won a decision at 140 to make it 27-15. After Dutch Fork won by pin at 145, Mota got a pin to make it 33-21.

Jones got a decision to clinch the match, but Reco Nicholson at 170 and Reese Hankins at 182 got pins to put an exclamation point on the victory.

“We had a lot of people contribute to this,” Slaughter said. “We were without one of our starters (Shyhiem Perry at 145), so we had to move some people around and we had people step up.”

Sumter travels to Myrtle Beach on Tuesday for a Region VI-4A quad match at Socastee. The region individual tournament will be on Saturday at SHS.

PRO FOOTBALL

Carroll, Belichick both excelled after failing the first time

BY ARNIE STAPLETON The Associated Press ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The two men vying to put their fingerprints on the Lombardi Trophy are testament to the axiom that men who flop in their first NFL head coaching job can subsequently flourish.

Pete Carroll and Bill Belichick were busts in their first go-around.

Carroll was jettisoned by the Jets after one season and then fired by the Patriots after three years in New England, where his replacement was none other than Belichick, CARROLL who had been banished by the Browns after a mediocre half-decade in Cleveland.

One of them will be fitted for BELICHICK another diamond-encrusted ring this offseason.

When the confetti falls on either the Seahawks or Patriots next Sunday, 12 of the last 18 Super Bowl champions will have been coached by men who had felt the sting of the pink slip as an NFL head coach.

Before this streak, all 23 Super Bowl champions between 1974 and 1996 were led by men who were on the first NFL head coaching job.

Now, retreads are all the rage.

That should bode well for fans of the Broncos, Bears, Raiders and Bills. Of the six openings that have been filled so far, four have gone to men who bring head coaching experience to their new jobs: Gary Kubiak in Denver, John Fox in Chicago, Jack Del Rio in Oakland and Rex Ryan in Buffalo.

Their respective resumes were cited by their new employers as a crucial factor.

Fired after going 50-52, counting playoffs, with the Jets from 2009-14, Ryan landed in Buffalo, where Doug Marrone had stepped down abruptly.

“We were basically the only team looking for a head coach who did not fire their head

coach the year before. So we decided ... that maybe we should go the veteran route,” said Bills owner Terry Pegula.

Others did, too.

“Experience was paramount,” Oakland GM Reggie McKenzie said after hiring Del Rio, whose 69-73 record in Jacksonville from 2003-11 looks all the better given the Jaguars’ 11-42 record since.

Del Rio, who spent the last three seasons as Denver’s defensive coordinator, said he’s much more comfortable and confident calling the shots and the plays now.

“You have an idea when you’re a young coach of what you think it would be” making all the decisions, “and then the reality of being a head coach sets in,” Del Rio said. “I think there’s been tremendous growth. It also was very beneficial after being a head coach, getting the past three years to go back and be a coordinator in a successful group, because I was able to see things from a different perspective.”

Kubiak had that same viewpoint in Baltimore last year when he helped rejuvenate the Ravens as their offensive coordinator after going 63-66 in Houston from 2006-13.

That year in Baltimore was invaluable “for me as a coach, being around John Harbaugh, being around that organization, being around Ozzie Newsome, watching them go about their business, how they go about being successful week in and week out,” Kubiak said.

“I take all that with me as I move forward and I know I’m a lot better coach now than I was when I left” Denver in 2006 after a decade as the Broncos offensive coordinator.

Said Ryan: “I’m a different man right now than I was six years ago because I lacked experience as a head coach. ... I will be a better coach now.

Through experience, I don’t think there’s any doubt that you become more of an expert.”

Fox is the most experienced of all the recycled coaches.

He’s 127-96 overall, including 49-22 in Denver, where his 3-4 postseason record led to a split with GM John Elway.

PHOTOS BY TRACI QUINN/SPECIAL TO THE ITEM

The cast of Sumter High School’s musical “Honk!” takes a break from rehearsal for a group photo. The popular retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Ugly Duckling” can be seen in the SHS auditorium Jan. 28 through 31.

Honk! if you love musicals Sumter High presents Ugly Duckling tale

BY TRACI QUINN Special to The Sumter Item

Sarah Louise McInnis is the sly Cat, who befriends Ugly out of hunger; she really wants to eat him.

Who among us hasn’t felt like an ugly duckling at some point?

The feeling of being an outsider, of not quite fitting in — of not being comfortable in our own skin — is pretty universal.

On Jan. 28, 29, 30 and 31, the students in the Sumter High School Drama Program will bring “Honk!” to the stage and, in the process, teach us a little about how to be true to ourselves and learn to love who we are.

This hilarious show — based on Hans Christian Andersen’s well-loved children’s story “Ugly Duckling” — actually beat out “The Lion King” and “Mamma Mia!” for the 2000 Olivier Award for best musical on London’s West End, the British version of New York City’s Broadway.

The plot is familiar: A mother and father duck have several ducklings.

Before they hatch, one of the eggs is not like the others — it’s brown and really large. When the duckling is born, no one really accepts him except his mother. They shun him because he’s different and make him feel ugly because he doesn’t look or act like the others. He gets lost and begins a journey full of danger and conflict — but he ultimately discovers who he really is: a swan.

“We really want to share this with the community,” said SHS Drama teacher and musical director Kelly Melton. “The music is great. It’s entertaining, but it also has a compelling theme, about tolerance and accepting yourself. It’s a great message for kids and teenagers, but really for all of us.

Sometimes we are the Ugly Duckling, and we may think that feeling will never end. But there’s always hope that you’ll find someone to connect with, someone who will love you for

who you are.”

Sophomore Christian Clayborne plays the lead, Ugly.

“I really wanted this part because it was a very relatable character,” he said. “I get what it’s like to be different and have people not accept you for being different. When I found drama, I found a place I could fit in to — like at the end of the show, when Ugly finds a place where he can belong.”

Christian said “Honk!” is a “very family friendly show. It’s a lot of fun and we have an amazing, dedicated cast. It’s going to be an interactive show, so the audience will love it as much as the cast does. There are references aimed at adults as well as children. There’s some really creative humor. Plus, it’s a musical. Who doesn’t love music?”

The show includes 39 cast members

WEDDING / ENGAGEMENT POLICY

Dollhouse built with love by Grandma isn’t up to code DEAR ABBY — My 7-year-old granddaughter, “Kelly,” wanted a dollhouse for Christmas. I had a friend build a basic Dear Abby frame, shingled roof, ABIGAIL chimney and VAN BUREN shutters, then I decorated it.

I did everything by hand. I wallpapered each room, made little rugs and crocheted lace curtains. There were even little window shades. Kelly’s room was a perfect princess bedroom. It took weeks, but I loved working on it.

The family came for five days over the holidays. Kelly loved her dollhouse and played with it every day. When it came time to leave, my daughter told Kelly she couldn’t take it with her. She had to leave it at Grandma’s “so she would have something to play with when she came to visit.” Kelly was heartbroken. So was I. Then my daughter told me (in private) the dollhouse was “too amateurish,” which was why she didn’t want it in her home. I think about it all the time and don’t know how to get past it. Any advice?

Hurt Grandma DEAR HURT — You appear to be a loving grandparent. Sometimes people say things without weighing the effect it will have on the person they’re talking to. What your daughter said may have been honest, but it was extremely insensitive in light of the time, effort and love that went into that gift.

Your daughter appears to be more fixated on appearances rather than what’s really important in life. What is sad to me is that she may pass along her skewed sense of values to

your granddaughter.

DEAR ABBY — I joined a weekly prayer group with women from my church. As a young mom, I appreciate having the opportunity to get out of the house and socialize with other adults, and all the women are nice.

We use an online sign-up to schedule who will host each week. The trouble is, all of the other members have much larger, nicer homes than mine.

There’s always space for everyone to sit, and a basement for all the kids to play in while we’re occupied. I’d love to host, but I’m afraid having all those people in my house would be an embarrassment.

No one has asked why I haven’t hosted yet, but I’m getting worried about what to say if someone does. Should I just say I don’t have the space? I feel it’s rude of me to not take a turn.

Tiny house dweller in Kansas DEAR T.H.D. — Not being able to accommodate a large group is nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s a fact of life for many people. If you are asked about why you haven’t hosted, tell the truth. Offer to host the gathering at the church — or outside when the weather permits. If that doesn’t work, volunteer to bring food to some of the events so you’ll feel like you’re contributing your share and no one will feel you are ducking a responsibility.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Bikel still performing, writing, at 90

BY NICK THOMAS Tinseltown Talks Growing up in Austria, young Theo Bikel dreamed of performing. He would achieve that goal, and more.

“I was 19 when I first performed professionally on stage, and now I’m 90,” Bikel said from Los Angeles recently.

But that long career might never have happened, had his family not fled their homeland in 1938.

“That’s when the Germans took over, and Austria became a strange, alien, and solemn country,” said Bikel, who recalled being beaten up at school and chased through parks. “We went from consulate to consulate and embassy to embassy to find a country that would take us, and eventually settled in Palestine.”

Before fleeing, 13-year-old Bikel glimpsed the face behind those dark, evil days.

“We lived on a wide thoroughfare and saw the military march through with tanks,” he recalled. “One of the vehicles was an open limousine with Hitler riding in it, as it passed right by our home. We were very afraid.”

Bikel moved to London in 1945, and the U.S. a decade later, becoming a successful actor, folk singer, author and

“It certainly influenced much of my life and my dedication to human and civil rights,” he said. “I cannot bear to see injustice of any kind.”

Bikel’s greatest professional stage success came in 1967 as Tevye, the milkman in “Fiddler on the Roof,” a character he portrayed for four decades in over 2,000 performances across North America. But when the 1971 movie version was filmed, the part was given to Israeli

YESTERYEAR, FROM PAGE C1 • Col. Delwin D. Bentley assumed command of the 507th Tactical Control Group, effective 1 April 1965. Bentley’s previous assignment was Commander, 35th Tactical Group (PACAF), Don Muang Air Base, and Bangkok, Thailand. The Casper, Wyoming native attended the University of Wyoming at Laramie. He graduated from Aviation Cadet Training at Stockton, Ca., and received his Pilot’s Wings and commission as a Second Lieutenant March 1942. Today he is rated a Command Pilot.

Donald Russell is serving as honorary chairman for the event, to which many of Clark’s close friends and associates during his career have been invited.

• Florence’s fast-stepping Yellow Jackets buzzed away from the Sumter High boys in a dual track meet Tuesday afternoon by a count of 78-47.

The defeat was the most decisive of the season against the Birds. Bubba Stafford, the fine Gamecock sprinter, lost his first 100-yard dash of the season when Florence’s McKissick stepped off a blistering 10.2.

• Clarendon County’s oldest town was named by the Rev. J. D. Huggins, pastor of the Paxville Baptist Church. The minister explained that “pax” means peace and “ville” means village, and he considered Pax-

ville a peaceful village. It might always have been peaceful, but it has not always been Paxville.

The name change came in 1902, but only the spelling and not the sound of the name was changed. The original name of the town was Packsville. It came from the name of the first settler in the region, Joseph Pack, who received a grant of 10,000 acres of wooded land from King George III of England.

• Sumter and Lancaster met in the “big” game yesterday at Riley Park, and when the dust had settled Lancaster had a 9-3 win and four teams were deadlocked with 4-2 records in Lower State AAA. Coach Luther Welsh explained later that Lancaster had lost one game he didn’t know about so they didn’t go ahead of Sumter after all. But Eau Claire and Rock Hill have come up with 4-2 records also so the next few games will be crucial for all four teams.

• John Quackenbush has assumed the duties of commercial manager of Radio Station WSSC, C. Edward Damron, station manager, said today.

“I was really hoping to get the role, but (director) Norman Jewison thought otherwise,” he said.

By then, Bikel’s film career was well underway, having begun in 1951 with his first screen appearance in “The African Queen” with Humphrey Bogart. Although the movie was largely filmed on location in the Congo, Bikel was spared the disease, heat and wild animals the rest of the cast endured.

• Peggy Baird’s Sunday school class at First Baptist Church has a language all its own. Baird keeps her eyes focused on the doors as the class members come in the room. As each one enters, she jumps up to greet him or her with a hug or a handshake. She tells most that she loves them and is glad they are there. But the language of love isn’t the one that make Baird’s class different — it’s the language of the hands that adds the special touch.

Baird, who lost her hearing as a child, teaches the hearing-impaired class at the Sumter church. She’s been leading the group comprising of both hearing and non-hearing adults for 31 years, assisted by Mandy Faulling, a sign language interpreter in the Darlington County School District.

A special cassette version of the rapid-fire single, including a 10-minute talk by Joel, will be provided to 40,000 junior and senior high school students nationwide, according to the singer’s label, CBS Records. The cassette will be distributed in conjunction with Scholastic magazine, teachers will receive a poster-sized copy of the lyrics and a lesson plan to aid them.

• School nurses in our district believe in a simple motto

“All my scenes were filmed on a London studio back lot, shooting during the day and appearing in a play at night,” he recalled. “Bogart was tremendous, very relaxed, and we played chess. I would see him sitting in the make-up chair in the morning mumbling lines to himself. Then, half an hour later, he was on the set giving a perfect full-blown performance.”

Bikel attended the 1959 Academy Awards after he and three other cast members were nominated for performances in “The Defiant Ones.” Was there anything memorable about the ceremony?

“Yes,” he replied, “I didn’t win!”

Neither did co-stars Tony Curtis, Sidney Poitier, or Cara Williams, although the film grabbed Oscars for best screenplay and cinematography.

Another small but memorable role came in 1964 when Bikel was cast as Hungarian phonetician Zoltan Karpathy in “My Fair Lady.”

“The director wanted someone with an impeccable accent and a lot of hair, so I qualified,” said Bikel. “I really wanted to play Alfred Doolittle, but the role went to Stanley Holloway. I had to dance with Audrey Hepburn, so I insisted they give me ballroom dancing lessons – I

wasn’t going to tread on her toes!”

In 1966, Bikel joined Carl Reiner, Alan Arkin and Jonathan Winters in the comedy “The Russians Are Coming!

The Russians Are Coming!”

“That was a superb experience with a great cast, and we loved spending time together on and off screen,” he noted.

Bikel made over 150 TV and film appearances, but one role that eluded him was master villain in James Bond’s “Goldfinger.”

“I did a screen test and they even dyed my hair gold,” said Bikel. “They don’t tell you why you don’t get a role. Maybe I just wasn’t strange enough!”

Currently, Bikel is making limited trips around the country to talk about “Theodore Bikel: In the Shoes of Sholom Aleichem,” his documentary about Yiddish author and playwright Aleichem (see www. bikel.com).

“Theo: An Autobiography” was also updated and re-released last summer, detailing Bikel’s professional career and lifelong concern for progressive causes.

“In the new edition, at 90, I look at myself from the inside and see what I learned from my life,” he said. “Maybe I can teach others from my experiences.”

When she was very young at her grandparents’ home she would get mad when her uncles would go outside with her brother, Chris, who is about the same age, and let him shoot.

• The medical staff of Clarendon Memorial Hospital is publicly supporting the construction of a new hospital in opposition to the county’s plans to renovate the aging facility.

The two teams entered the final quarter, which was shortened to six minutes, in a 36-36 tie. Jesse Bradford’s layup gave the Lady Wildcats a brief lead, but Wendy Madan’s basket tied the score again. The lead changed hands several times until the final 40 seconds of the game.

• Sumter School District 17 has purchased three plots of land at the corner of Floral and Newberry avenues opposite Wilder Elementary School.

The purchase, approved by the district’s board of trustees at the January meeting, will allow Wilder to expand its parking area and move it away from school buildings, according to Principal Eddie Myers.

“When the lot is finished, we can move teachers’ parking over there; then the children won’t have to walk through parked cars to get on their buses,” Myers explained.

THE SUMTER ITEM

Sumter street corners proved valuable for businesses O

ne example of location being a viable consideration of business location can be seen with the construction of the Sumter Savings Bank located on the corner of Main and Liberty streets. The Item reported that this bank “gave $25,000 for a lot 35-by-65 feet on Main and Liberty; there were some persons in the city who thought that the bank was paying a big price for real estate, as $714.29 a front foot was then an unheard of price for ‘Gamecock’ dirt. (Since, however, it has been shown that even higher prices than that will be paid for desirable sites.)

The bank owners knew the value of selecting a desirable site that was considered a meeting of two main thoroughfares.

Sammy Way This issue of Reflections will provide readers with photos of several of the businesses that REFLECTIONS chose to locate on the corners of many of Sumter’s busiest intersections. Some of the businesses and organizations from Sumter’s past, not all of them pictured here, are: The Claremont Hotel, The Post Office, Efirds, McClellan’s, The Bank of Sumter, Sumter Dry Goods, Alderman’s Drug Store, Lawson’s Pharmacy, Folsom’s Jewelry, Mitchell’s Drug Store, Manhattan Restaurant, B&H Gas Station, Mayflower Restaurant, Hurst Furniture and Church of the Holy Comforter.

Wilson Hall SCHOOL WINS REGION SPELLING BEE Wilson Hall accumulated the most points in the S.C. Independent School Association Regional Spelling Bee hosted by the school in the Nash Student Center. Fifth-grader Parker Archibald and seventh-grader Laura Grace Wylie won the bee for their respective grades and will advance to the state bee. Ninetysix students in grades three though eight, representing eight SCISA schools, participated in the regional bee coordinated by Becky Haley and moderated by Scott Warren.

STUDENTS WIN CONSTITUTION COMPETITION The seniors in the Advanced Placement U.S. Government and Politics class taught by Tom O’Hare participated in the We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution competition held at Columbia College on Jan. 8. The entire class, working in cooperative teams, prepared and presented 4-minute statements before a panel of community representatives acting as a congressional committee.

The team of Madison Beasley, Creighton Kellogg, Walker Patrick and Addie Singleton received recognition for earning the highest score for their presentation. More than 300 students from public and private schools in South Carolina participated in the competition. By participating in a simulated congressional hearing in which they testified before a panel of judges, students demonstrated their knowledge and understanding of constitutional principles and had opportunities to evaluate, take and defend positions on relevant historical and contemporary issues.

DUKE TIP Seventy-two percent of the seventh grade qualified for participation in the Duke University Talent Identification Program. To qualify students must score in the 95th percentile or higher on the national norms of a grade-level standardized achievement, aptitude, mental ability, or an approved state criterion-referenced test. Wilson Hall uses the Stanford Achievement Test. The program indentifies academically talented seventh-graders based on standardized test scores achieved while attending elementary or middle school. These students are invited to complete either the SAT Reasoning Test or the ACT Assessment college entrance examinations. Duke TIP then provides the participants with comparative information concerning their academic abilities and resources for unique educational opportunities.

COUNSELOR ATTENDS DUKE CONFERENCE Diane Richardson, college counselor, was one of 20 high school counselors from S.C. selected to attend the Duke University Counselor Conference. The conference was held on the university’s campus in Durham, North Carolina, on Jan. 15 and 16.

USC DEBATE WORKSHOP Sixteen middle and high school students who are members of the debate team, advised by Stacey Reaves and Dianne Sprott, attended a debate workshop at University of South Carolina in Columbia on Jan. 14. Sponsored by the Euphradian Foundation, the day-long event was structured for both novice and experienced debaters. The workshop taught the basics of debate form, technique and delivery, as well as the development of coherent arguments and opinions.

TEACHERS OF THE YEAR The following faculty members were selected by their peers as the Wilson Hall Teachers of the Year: lower school, third-grade teacher Nancy Hanson; middle school, art teacher Ashley Lareau; and upper school, math and science teacher Micki Harritt.

However, sixth grade just finished their inventor projects; they had to create an informative and professional poster board to present to the class. — Miriam Marritt

The Miller Communication Star Teacher of the Month for January was Bridget Belcher, a fourth-grade teacher at R.E. Davis Elementary. Belcher and Superintendent J. Frank Baker appeared on the Good Morning Sumter Show earlier this month. Her students nominated her and credited her with her friendliness, approachability and the ability to always know if something is bothering them.

Business sponsors for the program are Baker’s Sweets, Brown’s Furniture and Bedding, Creative Cookery, A Ring Around the Roses, Staples and the Sumter Opera House.

On the first Thursday of each month, the Star teacher and Baker are guests on the Good Morning Sumter Show.

The show is aired on 105.9FM and is hosted by Derek Burress.

Sumter School District and the Star Teachers appreciate the support of Miller Communication and the businesses that are a part of this monthly program. Dr. Baker said, “Miller Communication and all of the media outlets in Sumter have been very good to Sumter School District. We appreciate their support and the support of the local businesses and industries who work with us year round. In any community, all of the shareholders must work together to enrich the lives of the citizens, and this effort is certainly apparent in Sumter.

We are always happy for an opportunity to highlight outstanding teachers like Ms. Belcher.”

excel during their Benchmark testing this week; so much so, that they almost forgot about the excitement and new learning adventures they will discover while reading and enjoying their Time For Kids magazines.

This week they reviewed some of the best inventions of 2014, Time For Kids first issue of 2015. The most exciting invention for the third-graders was the Hoverboard.

Barbara Hill’s students are growing plants from rooting plant stems. They are using standard measurement and metric units and are testing potting soils to see which soil will produce the largest growth.

Every week, data is collected after a selected student waters the plants the same amount, and every month the length of the plant is measured.

The students want to know if just because planting soil costs more, does it really produce more growth? Mrs. Hill hopes the plants will really take off because students will be allowed to take the plants home to their moms by Mother’s Day after the experiment is done.

Rashon Green from Hill’s class won the spelling bee for sixth grade. Rashon will be representing St. Paul Elementary at the National Spelling Bee in Florence at Francis Marion University. — Beverly Spry

PANORAMA

THE SUMTER ITEM LEFT: When Mama Duck’s eggs hatch, there seems to be one duckling who’s a little different, and his siblings are shocked. Christian Clayborne, top, plays Ugly in Sumter High School’s presentation of the musical “Honk!’ based on Hans Christian Andersen’s tale of the Ugly Duckling. See it Wednesday through Saturday in the SHS auditorium.

BELOW: Ugly, far right, is being rejected by his family because he’s different, and Cat moves in to “befriend” him with dreams of a chicken dinner. Ida and Drake, Ugly’s mother and father, at left, argue; she’s chastising him for not accepting his son.

The Rhode Island Reds are among the denizens of the farm who are shocked by Ugly’s appearance.

UGLY DUCKLING, FROM PAGE C1 and 23 students working tech — lights, sound, costumes, props and set design.

“Tech is an important aspect of every show,” said student Emma Houck. “You learn how to better communicate, and you realize how much work goes into a show or anything else behind the scenes.

And you learn how to think about how everything you do impacts the show,” what’s going on in plain view.

“Come because it’s entertaining and funny and has great music,” Melton said, “but also come to support this award-winning drama program and theater in general.”

Melton stressed the importance of community support of theater programs.

“Theater is an art form that allows students an outlet for individual expression. It

teaches social intelligence and social responsibility. They have to learn to work together,” he said. “But theater also gives students a place to belong, a place where they can be themselves. It attracts so many different types of students — those who excel in academics and those who have other interests. It takes mental and physical effort. It combines instinct and preparation. And a lot of the things they’re learning spill over into the rest of their lives: communication, support, teamwork.”

“Honk!” will be performed in the Sumter High School Auditorium on McCrays Mill Road.

The show runs Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Jan. 2830, at 7 p.m. and Saturday, Jan. 31 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for students and children.

Three of several commercially available tax guides to help prepare this year’s tax return are seen in Washington on Jan. 9.

Health coverage penalties begin this tax season

BY HAMLET FORT hamlet@theitem.com

NEED HELP FILING YOUR 2014 TAX RETURN?

Changes to the tax code in 2015 will usher in increased penalties for Americans who lack health insurance coverage.

“If you don’t have health insurance to qualify for the Affordable Care Act, you’ll be subject to penalties this year,” said Ronnie Hendricks, a certified public accountant with P.G. Palmer and Co. in Sumter.

“This is the first year there will be penalties for individuals.”

The ACA passed in 2010 scheduled 2014 as the first year for the application of penalties. The penalty for 2014 is 1 percent of household income. In 2015, that penalty will double to 2 percent of household income, or $325 per person, whichever number is greater.

The ACA requires individuals and joint filers to report health insurance coverage or an exemption on their 2014 tax returns. If no health insurance or exemption is reported, the penalties go into effect. The U.S. Congressional Budget Office estimated in 2012 that approximately four million people per year will opt to pay the penalty versus acquiring insurance.

Wilson Macewan, a CPA in Sumter, said tax preparers are still learning about the changes to the code and the effects regarding health care and taxes.

WHY CAN’T THE IRS ANSWER MY QUESTIONS WHEN I CALL? The tax agency says only half of the 100 million people expected to call this year will be able to reach a person.

Callers who do get through may have to wait on hold for 30 minutes or more to talk to someone who will answer only the simplest questions.

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen says budget cuts are forcing the agency to reduce taxpayer services and other functions.

Congress cut the IRS by $346 million for the budget year that ends Sept. 30. Koskinen says the agency’s $10.9 billion budget is its lowest since 2008. When adjusted for inflation, the budget hasn’t been this low since 1998, he said.

WHY DID CONGRESS CUT THE IRS BUDGET? Republicans in Congress adamantly oppose Obama’s health law, so some have been working to starve the IRS of funds just as its role in implementing the law ramps up.

“There’s a whole new set of questions on the forms,” he said of the tax returns for filers and that the first year of adoption will be a year for learning on the go.

However, tax professionals agree the most clear takeaway from the changes is that not having health insurance in 2015 will cost you. They say the best course of action regarding the new tax code is simply to obtain coverage.

It won’t work, Koskinen said in an interview.

The agency, he said, is required by law to help implement the health program. “The only places we have discretion are in information technology, tax enforcement, customer service.”

WHERE CAN I GET HELP FILING MY TAX RETURN? The IRS wants you to visit its website. The agency has devoted a section to answering questions about the health law: www.irs.gov/ Affordable-Care-Act/ .

The IRS website includes videos, tax tips and frequently asked questions about the health law.

Koskinen’s advice to taxpayers with questions: Don’t call the IRS unless you absolutely have to.

More than half of all filers pay someone to prepare their returns. Private tax preparers, such as H&R Block, also have websites with information about the health law.

Source: The Associated Press

Penalties will increase during the next two years that the ACA is in effect, from 2 percent in 2015 to 2.5 percent in 2016 and beyond.

Sufficient recognized insurance includes employer coverage, the Health Insurance Marketplace coverage as instituted by the ACA, or government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. It remains possible to deduct health insurance expenses from tax filings, but how

much depends on the filer’s age, income and employment status. It’s possible to deduct medical expenses that exceed 10 percent of your adjusted gross income, or 7.5 percent for those ages 65 and older.

Changes to the tax code are an annual inevitability, according to tax preparers, and keeping up with what’s new and how changes affect personal budgeting can be a timeconsuming effort.

While the penalty tax that comes as a result of the ACA legislation is a major addition, it isn’t the only change.

Some other addendums to the code include a limit on individual retirement account (IRA) rollovers to one per year and a raise in employee contributions to 401(k) accounts to $18,000. That limit is up $500 from 2014. As for the IRA change, if you choose to roll over funds from one IRA to another more than once per year, you will lose qualification for tax breaks on the subsequent rollovers after the first one.

There are more than four million words in the U.S. tax code, and annual changes only make a confusing season more perplexing. Tax professionals say they’re there to help clear up confusion, but for now, the biggest takeaway from 2015 tax code changes revolves around the ACA and health insurance coverage.

Tuesday marked the first day for 2014 filings to be entered, and the annual deadline is April 15.

This year, resolve to take control of your finances

BY DONNA HOLMES Special to The Sumter Item No more excuses. It’s time to do something about all that debt. You’ve been putting it off for too long.

Make 2015 the year you take control of your finances. Resolve to save more, spend less, pay off debt and improve your credit score.

SAVE MORE Get in the habit of saving 10 percent from the top of each paycheck or monthly income.

If saving 10 percent is difficult to start, then choose a smaller amount.

The goal is to pay you first and be consistent.

Keep at least HOLMES $500 on hand at all times if you are single. Married couples should have at least $1,000 on hand. Doing so will help jump start that muchneeded emergency fund. An emergency fund is a shortterm savings goal.

A long-term savings goal should be to contribute monthly to a retirement fund. Both

the short-term savings and long-term savings can be accomplished through automatic deductions from each paycheck.

Vow to make saving a part of your budget, and pay yourself first.

SPEND LESS Start a budget. A budget is your spending plan that helps you track your monthly expenditures.

Review your checking statements and credit card statements to get an idea of your spending behavior. Don’t forget the little habits, too, such as grabbing a daily cup of coffee or a quick breakfast sandwich on the way to work.

Your budget should consist of fixed, variable and periodic expenses, for example, car payment, car maintenance and car registration and taxes.

As you are listing your monthly expenses, look for areas that could be cut back or eliminated altogether. How about that afternoon snack machine run? Do you really need a home phone and a cellphone? Could you do without cable for a while?

Cutting this type of spending could open up much-needed cash flow for saving, paying off debt or funding an emergency fund. Vow to track your spending habits, and get on a budget.

PAY OFF DEBT Consumers tend to get into unnecessary debt loads when they seek credit based on wants rather than needs. Emotions are a big factor in causing overspending. You want to feel good, or there’s a “your friend has one” mentality.

Get control of emotional spending. Ask yourself each time if you are spending out of a “need” or a “want.” You can’t get out of debt by constantly adding on new debt.

To get in control of existing debt, try power paying the debt down. Organize your debts in the order of lowest balance to highest balance. Start paying more than the minimum on the lowest balance debt first. If you can handle a double payment or more, then do it. Continue to pay off other debts, the minimum payment, while concentrating on the lowest balance debt.

When the smallest balance

debt has been paid in full, then move that payment system up to the next-lowest balance debt. You can do this payment system with the highest interest rate debt, too. Vow to stop seeking new credit unless it is absolutely a need, and stay focused on reducing your debt.

IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT SCORE Another area to help save money in the long run is reducing interest rates. If you have several high-interest loans, you may want to consolidate these loans into one lower interest rate loan.

Keep in mind a review of your credit file will be required to qualify you for a lower interest rate loan.

Here are a few basic tips for keeping a good credit score: • Pay on time. Never run 30 days late on debt. This drops the credit score 35 percent; • Keep balances low on revolving credit. Maxed-out cards drop the score 30 percent; • Don’t close out any revolving lines of credit that are more than 12 months old. Just pay them down to a zero bal-

ance, and leave them open.

Closing them could drop the score 15 percent; • Do not open more than two lines of new credit a year.

Seeking credit excessively can drop a score by 10 percent; • Stay away from predatory lenders such as finance companies, title loan companies and sub-prime mortgage companies. This drops the score 10 percent; and • Check your credit report regularly for errors.

To view your credit file, visit www.annualcreditreport.com, or call 1-877-322-8228 to receive a copy by mail.

If you want your credit score, go to www.myfico.com.

Your credit file is free once a year from each one of the credit bureaus. Your credit score is not free, so have a debit card or credit card ready when seeking your credit score.

If your score is low or you need to clean up your credit file, seek financial counseling for help.

Donna Holmes is a financial counselor with SAFE Federal Credit Union.

THE SUMTER ITEM

Call the newsroom at: (803) 774-1226 | E-mail: pressrelease@theitem.com

What you find may be more worthwhile than what you’re looking for

I

t has been said more times than I can shake a stick at: “It’s about being there,

not about killing something.” Well, I’m here to tell you that it is true, at least to a large degree.

Let’s face it, if a guy was interested only in killing a deer or a duck, why in the world would he go hunting? Most of the time spent hunting deer and ducks these days is an exercise in boredom interspersed with a healthy dose of dull. For the most part, if you hunt deer, you will spend hours on a stand without seeing a thing, or you’ll see deer that you deem too small to take and so on.

In all likelihood, you’ll also see cardinals, wrens, squirrels and maybe a turkey or two. In short, you’ll witness something that you would not see sitting on your couch at home.

If you’re a duck hunter and you’re younger than 45 years old, then you have probably

spent far more time looking at empty skies than you have looking down your gun barrel at a big, fat malEarle lard. It’s a Woodward shame, beAFIELD & cause I reAFLOAT member the “good ole days” when mallards flew by the thousands every morning.

It doesn’t matter though.

There’s still a lot to see and there is something magically beautiful about the early morning swamp. Of course, you’ve got a pleasant boat ride back to the hill when you finally give up.

I think the biggest thing about it is the fellowship and being outdoors. Last Saturday morning, Coffee Pot and I went out to visit Gene to see about taking a goose off of his pond. We could also watch the branch that runs north of his property and see what the wood duck population was

doing and use that knowledge another day.

We gathered early and took our spots in the usual places, put out a half dozen decoys just to say we did, loaded our fowling pieces and began the conversation. That was around 6:45 a.m.

The sunrise was magnificent and the morning ideal.

The goose hunting was exactly the opposite. Nope, not a single, solitary goose showed its long neck all morning long, but it was a great morning.

Coffee Pot, Gene and I are all “morning people” so we appreciate the sunrise and all that goes with it. We stood around in the cool of the dawn and talked about everything from old guns to dove hunting to cattle farming. You name it, we talked about it.

Well, if you want to be brutally honest, we didn’t talk about everything. We omitted anything that was tied to emotion. We did not talk relationships or love or fashion or anything of the sort. Men just don’t do that, and it was fine.

By 9 we called it quits. Gene

and I both had to be in Florence to celebrate our granddaughter Katie’s third birthday at 1 p.m. Coffee Pot also had a commitment that morning.

We didn’t fire a shot, but had the best of mornings.

Sunday was such a beautiful day, that I decided on the drive home from church that I would take a stroll in the woods that afternoon. I started following deer trails and eventually wound up at a spot that I hunted a few years ago, but had decided to let rest.

What I found made me rethink the hunting thing.

I found countless small trees torn up and a rather large cedar mangled. I found a scrape about three feet in diameter not 10 yards from the base of the old magnolia tree where I once had a stand. I was stoked!

There was nothing to do but to start working on the location.

Considering the lack of trees big enough to support a tree stand, and considering the new found love I have for ground blinds, I found the

perfect cluster of saplings to nestle the ground blind into and began to clear shooting lanes from the proposed location out to about 25 yards.

That’s about as far as I could see anyway.

I snipped a limb here and lopped a twig there and finally was satisfied with what I had accomplished. I’ll put the blind in about the first of August to let the critters get used to it before I try to hunt. Now is a super time to do these kinds of things because the disturbance you create will be long forgotten in eight months.

The temperature had been fantastic, cool enough to keep me from pouring sweat, but warm enough not to need heavy clothing. Overall, it was a day to revel in being out and about. I was simply “there.”

So if you’re into the hunting and fishing game to see how many you can catch or kill, then maybe you’re in it for the wrong reason. Every once in awhile, slow down and take a look around; what you find may be more worthwhile than what you’re looking for.

North Island hog hunts with dogs to remove destructive feral hogs THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The S.C. Department of Natural Resources will continue efforts to remove and eliminate feral hogs from North Island in Georgetown County by scheduling three hog hunts with dogs.

Although feral hog numbers are down on North Island, they continue to cause damage to the environment.

“Feral hogs have continued to cause destruction to the landscape and native plants, jeopardizing the nesting success of ground-nesting birds and sea turtle nests scattered along the beaches of this barrier island,” said Jamie Dozier, wildlife biologist with the

DNR. These hunts are part of an overall hog removal project on the Yawkey Wildlife Center. This removal effort includes partnerships with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service’s South Carolina Coastal Program, the United States Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services Agency and the Belle Baruch Foundation at Hobcaw Barony.

In order to help remove the destructive hogs, DNR will allow three hog hunts with dogs to take place on North Island only. The 3-day hunt periods – Thursday through Saturday -are scheduled for Feb. 12-14, Feb. 19-21 and Feb. 26-28. They will last from sunrise to sunset.

North Island is only accessi-

ble after crossing Winyah Bay by boat. It contains 1,410 acres of uplands and 1,703 acres of marsh. It is a remote location and can be a strenuous hunt.

Hunters must comply with the following guidelines: * No more than four bay or catch dogs per party. * No still or stalk hunting is allowed. * One shotgun permitted per party (buckshot only), and sidearms will also be permitted. * Hog hunters must have in their possession a valid South Carolina hunting license. * All hunters are required to wear a hat, coat, or vest of solid international orange while hunting. * Hogs may not be removed

that spotted bass are hanging around the same bait schools as the rest of the fish, and at times they are still suspended higher in the water column than the other species. However, at times they are right on the bottom along with other fish. Drop shot rigs and jigging spoons continue to be productive for artificial lure anglers. To target largemouth Wendell still suggests going up the creeks (Coldwater, Beaverdam, the Rocky River, etc.) and throwing a medium-running crankbait. If you want to avoid spotted bass getting as far up the creeks as possible, where largemouths are more likely to live, is usually best. Catfish: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that catfish can be caught by anglers who target them, although the action is a bit slower with the colder temperatures. Fish cut herring on the bottom around the large schools of shad. Crappie: Slow. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that this is a slow period for crappie, but diehard crappie anglers who insist on targeting them will find that there are certain spots where crappie can be found. It may take a lot of searching, but for example Wendell knows that some fish are grouped in Pickens Creek. The best bet is looking for fish just off the bottom in 35-40 feet of water and targeting them with a drop shot rig and minnow.

Lake Thurmond Crappie: Fair. Captain William Sasser reports that crappie remain in a traditional wintertime pattern in the creeks, with fish 15-18 feet down over brush in about 30 feet of water. The Georgia and South Carolina Little Rivers continue to produce and minnows are the best bait.

Lake Wylie Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair. FLW Professional and Guide Matt Arey reports that Lake Wylie bass fishing is still a little tough. Winning anglers are focusing on some specific spots as there is not a strong bite all over the lake. With the

extreme cold fish should fully move into a winter pattern, and so look for bass to be in very tight schools as water temperatures drop below 50 degrees.

Bass will be grouped up around channel swings, points and at the mouths of creeks, and deeper wind-blown docks should continue to be a factor. Bass are following bait schools right now and wind is a critical factor in where the fish locate. Fishing grubs such as Yamamato single tail grubs behind a 1/4 or 3/16 ounce jighead, spoons and Alabama rigs will all produce, and if there is a shad kill then subtle jerkbaits, flukes, and crankbaits with a tight wobble such as a No. 5 or No. 7 Shad Rap will all catch fish on a slow and erratic retrieve. As always in the winter on Lake Wylie fish can be caught near the lower and upper hot holes using a variety of shallow water techniques.

Midlands area Lake Wateree Catfish: Good to very good. Captain Rodger Taylor reports that this is a peak time to catch a big catfish on Wateree, with the cold months until about the beginning of April traditionally offering the best chance to catch a monster. At this time of year Rodger suggests starting off by fishing deep water current breaks, and he will traditionally give a good spot an hour before moving onto the next similar spot. If deep breaks do not seem to be holding fish then he will try to locate fish on the flats, particularly if birds are working an area. If neither deep drops or flats are producing then he will head into the creeks; sometimes a very small temperature differential will move fish up shallow to feed even during the coldest periods. Do not overlook the shallows even in the winter.

Cut gizzard shad is Rodger’s preferred wintertime bait, and on windy days he will usually present it to the fish on the drift while on calmer days he will usually anchor.

DNR will allow 3 hog hunts with dogs to take place on North Island. The three day hunt periods (all Thursday-Saturday) are scheduled for February 13-15, 20-22, and February 27-March 1 from sunrise to sunset only. from North Island alive.

Hunters are also reminded the North Island lighthouse grounds are off limits. Do not enter the buildings or area immediately surrounding the lighthouse.

The staff at the USDA Wildlife Services would like to collect information about the

number of hogs removed.

Hunters should call their toll free phone number (1-866-4USDAWS ext. 12) to report any hogs harvested. DNR staff will also periodically be on site to collect pertinent information.

For more information, contact the Yawkey Wildlife Center at (843) 546-6814.

Catfish: Fair to good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that drifting with cut herring and shad is the best way to put channel cats in the boat right now. Day in and day out drifting across and parallel to the river channel is the most productive area, although some days anglers might find the best action off the main lake at the mouth or in the backs of feeder creeks, and some days you mind find the fish scattered across flats. Catfish move a lot with the baitfish, but there almost always seem to be some catchable fish in or near the river channel.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the big fish bite has been very strong recently, although it has gotten a little less consistent. As usual when pursuing big fish anglers need to be patient, particularly now when catfish have their choice of millions of slowmoving or even dying baitfish to feed on. Drifting slowly or giving anchored baits plenty of time can have a huge payoff, such as the 97-pound fish landed on Chris’ boat in December. Overall, both drifting and anchoring are working equally well and he most productive depth zone has been 40-70 feet of water. Ledges of gullies seem to be the most productive terrain and white perch and gizzard shad have been the best baits. Free line anglers report good numbers of 1/2 to 5 pound fish freelining small pieces of herring over deep water.

Lake Murray Largemouth bass: Slow to fair. Veteran angler Captain Doug Lown reports that some decent sacks are being caught in each tournament, but overall it is pretty tough to get bites a lot of days. The best bite has been taking place early in the morning, but after the sun gets up it has been harder to catch fish and anglers need to seek out shade. Early in the morning Doug is finding action in pockets near deep water, likely where

bait has pulled up overnight, but later in the day he is concentrating on steep, rocky banks. Crankbaits, jigs and shakey head worms will catch fish. Avoid windblown areas and look for gulls to locate general areas where bass will be found — everything is bait dependent right now. Crappie: Slow. Captain Brad Taylor reports that the bite was pretty good until about Christmas when the rains came through, but at that point things pretty much completely shut down. For fish to start biting again there will need to be several days without freshwater inflow to give the mud time to settle out.

When that happens look for fish to set back up in the mouths of creeks and for anglers to catch them tight-lining. For now fish are holding close to the bottom, but soon they will suspend again.

Santee Cooper System Striped bass: Fair. Captain Jim Glenn reports that there has been some success on the lower end of Lake Moultrie fishing in or near schools of bait, which will typically be found in 40-60 feet of water. Fishing live bait, jigging spoons and trolling are all effective. Bream: Fair. Captain Steve English reports that bluegill remain bunched up around brushpiles and they will still bite. He has been catching bream around the same brush where the crappie are found, usually on the deeper sides. Steve has found that through the winter it is also possible to go out to deep drops in 30-45 feet of water and fish a drop shot rig with a cricket, so the fish never really seem to stop biting. Largemouth bass: Fair.

Captain Steve English reports that there continue to be some nice bass caught shallow on spinnerbaits and slowmoving crankbaits, but on the other end of the spectrum his boat recently caught a 9 1/2 pound fish on a jigging spoon in 35 feet of water. The cold spell may knock out the shallow bite temporarily, but after a few warm days fish should be up shallow where they will eat a slowmoving crankbait again soon.

FISHING REPORT Mountains Area Lake Jocassee Trout: Fair. Trout are still very deep on Jocassee with the best depth range now at 80-100 feet of water, and both spoons and live bait will still catch fish. However, spoons and particularly Apex spoons have been working a bit better than shiners. Whether using live bait or hardware it is important to fish very slowly right now.

Lake Keowee Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Fair.

Guide Brad Fowler reports that so far this winter high water temperatures have kept the bass from grouping up in a traditional winter pattern where the majority of fish are hunkered down on the bottom in deep water. Instead, a lot of fish have been suspended. The recent cold weather should settle the fish into their normal areas, and the best pattern should be deep drop-shotting in 50-70 feet of water, with some fish deeper and others slightly shallower.

Lake Hartwell Catfish: Slow to fair. Captain Bill Plumley reports that the catfish bite is a little slow on Lake Hartwell, but a few blues can be caught on cut baits fished in 30-40 feet of water around points and along the channels. These fish can be caught either on the main lake or in the creeks in the right depth range. The key is fresh cut gizzard shad or herring, and both anchoring and slow drifting (where possible) will work. A few channel catfish can be caught on worms fished very deep, but everything should improve once the weather warms a bit. Crappie: Slow to fair. Captain Bill Plumley reports that there is not a lot of crappie news to report right now, but a few fish are being caught over brush in 25-30 feet of water. Mostly fish are being caught on minnows but a few are coming on jigs.

Piedmont Area Lake Russell Bass: Fair. Guide Wendell Wilson reports
