A woman left Sumter Family Health Center clapping Wednesday.

With the help of Quinnishia Dennis, the woman was able to sign up for an insurance plan on the Health Insurance Marketplace — a component of the Affordable Care Act. “She qualified for a tax

credit, and she didn’t think she would,” said the outreach and enrollment specialist.

“She didn’t do it last year because she didn’t think she would qualify. It’s been very beneficial to those who have signed up.”

Others have had a less exciting experience but have still received coverage.

FERGUSON, Mo. — It’s doubtful they were aware, but the rioters who torched Juanita Morris’ dress shop had strayed a couple of blocks beyond the Ferguson city limits and into the town of Dellwood.

Such is the indiscriminate nature of rage.

But walking amid the ashes of 28 years of work, Juanita Morris was thinking about something else: Her plans to rebuild.

“When you’ve been beaten to the ground, you can’t do nothing but come up,” she said, standing outside the charred shell of her West Florissant Avenue store, Juanita’s Fashions R Boutique, on a recent frigid morning. “One brick at a time, one dress at a time ... I will rise.”

Officials in and around this St. Louis suburb are trying to rebuild as well after the Aug. 9 shooting death of Michael Brown, an unarmed black man, by a white police officer and the fiery riots that fol-

Statewide traffic fatalities increase slightly in 2014

BY MATT BRUCE matthew@theitem.com More people died on the roads in South Carolina in 2014 than the year before, according to Highway Patrol numbers released Monday.

More than 800 deaths occurred on the state’s highways during the year, an increase of about 40 more than in 2013, when the Palmetto

State had a 30-year low in traffic fatalities at 762.

“We’re making strides, and each and every day, we’re trying to work toward our goal, which is Target Zero,” said Lance Cpl. Judd Jones, referencing the South Carolina Highway Patrol’s campaign to eliminate deadly crashes. “We try to have zero fatalities every day we patrol and work the roads.

Whether it’s attainable,

that’s another question. But that’s the goal that we strive toward.”

The final tally for the year showed at least 809 traffic deaths unofficially and remained relatively small as one of the lowest tallies of the past 10 years.

The highway patrol news release calculated 804 traffic fatalities through Dec. 28.

Media reports showed at least an additional five oc-

curred on the state’s roads during the final three days of the year.

Last year, the state saw an 11 percent decrease in its fatality numbers, but in 2007 more than 1,000 people died on South Carolina thoroughfares.

The report indicated at least 10 people died during the Christmas holiday season.

In a Dec. 23 crash in Sum-

ter County, a New York family of four died while traveling along Interstate 95 en route to Florida.

In Sumter County, there were 26 fatalities, an increase of nine over 2013. The county saw 16 traffic deaths in 2012 and 23 in 2011. Clarendon County had nine such incidents, marking its lowest number of highway deaths

Good crops, bad prices for area farmers

LOCAL & STATE BRIEFS FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS

Dalzell man faces drug, copper theft charges Sumter County deputies on Friday arrested a Dalzell man who was wanted in a copper theft last week and reportedly found drugs on him.

Michael Bolden, 30, of 3665 Bolden Lane, faces charges of second-degree burglary, obtaining nonferrous metals unlawfully and possession of marijuana stemming from the in- BOLDEN cidents.

According to a release from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office, Bolden broke into a Dalzell residence in the 2600 block of Stirrup Lane between Dec. 28 and 29 and stole about $3,500 worth of copper from the property. An additional arrest warrant alleges deputies found him Friday with about two grams of suspected marijuana in his possession along Airport Road.

Man shot to death at Richland County bar HOPKINS — Richland County deputies are trying to figure out what led to a shooting that left a man dead at a bar in Hopkins.

Investigators told local media outlets that officers responding to a call about shots fired about 1:30 a.m.

Saturday found a man shot in the chest at Tony’s Lounge.

Richland County Coroner Gary Watts said 34-year-old Steward Wilson Jr. died a short time later at the hospital.

BY JIM HILLEY jim@theitem.com There was good news and bad news for area farmers in 2014, Clemson Extension Agronomist David DeWitt said Friday.

“It was a pretty good crop year, though some corn was hit by the hot, dry weather,” he said. “Overall in Sumter, Lee and Clarendon counties it will go down as a successful year — except for commodity prices.”

DeWitt said farmers will benefit if fuel prices remain low, but most of the recent drop in fuel prices came in the middle of the harvest season — after farmers had purchased fuel.

“That is just kicking in,” he said.

“This big equipment does use a good bit of fuel. A tractor can use over 100 gallons a day, and a cotton picker can

use 300 gallons a day.”

DeWitt said the price of farm fuel has been about $2.20 a gallon.

“If we can get the rest of the inputs to decrease we will be all right,” he said.

Most farmers buy fuel by the tanker load, about 8,000 to 9,000 gallons, or half a load, DeWitt said.

While this may be a good time for farmers to top off their tanks, DeWitt said many either already have purchased fuel or won’t have the money to buy fuel until early spring.

“I would think that most people who had a good year will try to get the expense in the 2014 tax year,” DeWitt said.

He said farms that are struggling may have to wait until their 2015 farm loans come in.

DeWitt said he is seeing more win-

ter wheat planted than he predicted earlier but still less than would be normal if commodity prices were higher.

Nothing “too dramatic” is coming in 2015, he said.

“The biggest thing is weather, and we have no control over that.”

Higher commodity prices, which would help area farmers, don’t seem to be on the horizon at this time.

“Most predictions are that commodity prices will remain stable,” DeWitt said.

He said he hasn’t seen anyone planting anything new.

A lot of peanuts will be planted, he said, even though peanut contracts will be low.

“We have good moisture in the ground — too bad we can’t save it till June, but that’s the way it is,” he said.

Lee County swears in council members

BY JIM HILLEY jim@theitem.com Lee County had a swearing-in ceremony Friday morning at the Lee County Courthouse for three returning council members and one new councilor with a familiar name.

Lee County clerk of court James Davis swore in sitting councilors Charles Arthur Beasley, Gordon Eckley and David Addison and incoming member Johnette McCutchen, who is taking over the seat held by her father, Sam McCutchen.

“I look forward to another term,” Beasley said.

“We have to look to the future and our children’s education,” he said. “They go

somewhere else to get an education, and we have to get them to come back. As elected officials, we have to support our young people.”

Eckley said he has high expectations for the future of Lee County.

“We have some exciting things going on here, and I look forward to serving the people.”

Addison said he has enjoyed working with the council for 16 years.

“We have accomplished a good bit, but there is a lot to be done,” he said.

“I am looking forward to helping our county be the best place to live,” McCutchen said. “I am going to need a lot of help, but I am a fast learner.

Governors’ inaugural extravaganzas fueled by political donors

BY PAUL J. WEBER The Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas — When it comes to parties, ringing in the new year has nothing on the swearing-in soirees for governors across the country.

In Texas, organizers are hoping to raise $4 million to celebrate the incoming governor and are planning a concert headlined by Lady Antebellum, a parade through the state capital and a barbecue with four tons of brisket.

Inaugural activities celebrating the newly elected Democratic governor in Pennsylvania will cost donors up to $50,000 apiece and include an evening “Let’s Get Started” bash, with “celebratory attire” recommended.

Eleven new governors are taking office this month, and nearly two dozen others are renewing their oaths for second, third or — in the case of Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad — sixth terms. Many will celebrate with chart-topping bands and blowout balls, with much of the bill footed by the same supporters who bankrolled their victorious campaigns.

In many states, corporate money that was banned before Election Day is allowed to cover the tab for inaugural parties.

Critics see the events as another means for corporations and wealthy individuals to curry political favor with the state’s highest office, and in many cases without the transparency required by usual campaign finance laws.

“It’s all part of the system of cronyism,” said Craig McDonald, executive director of the left-leaning watchdog group Texans for Public Justice. “It’s more unsettling than campaigns because the rules are much looser. It allows corporations and others to spend more money.”

Not all governors are tossing fancy parties.

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, a Republican who will take office with his state facing a $1.5 billion budget shortfall, is going low key, with a modest reception at the Capitol.

Other governors are making the most of the occasion and, in the process, soliciting donations from the types of people and business entities that typically seek to influence legislation and state regulations.

In states where donors are disclosed, either because of state reporting requirements or voluntary releases by the governor, corporations are shown to play a major role.

The inaugural committee established

for another Republican, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, took contributions ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 each from such companies as Duke Energy, BlueCross BlueShield and Altria, the nation’s largest cigarette maker, for her 2011 swearing-in festivities. Her campaign manager, Tim Pearson, says Haley’s supporters are seeking donations in the same range for events surrounding this year’s inauguration on Jan. 14.

In Florida, where re-elected Gov. Rick Scott scaled back from the inauguration festivities he held four years ago, the committee overseeing his inaugural activities this time is still raising nearly $800,000. That includes $100,000 from the Florida Insurance Council and others with interests before the state.

Many inaugural fundraising committees ultimately make at least some financial information public, even if it’s incomplete.

Aides to Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal said he planned to disclose the donors to his swearing-in activities. His inauguration includes a concert from country star Alan Jackson and Atlanta-based Coca Cola producing a special bottle.

Deal, a Republican, was criticized in 2011 for not detailing how his inaugural money was spent, but he did dis-

close donor names afterward. AT&T and Cigna, a health insurer, were among those making contributions.

He and other governors throwing big parties reject suggestions of influence-buying and say private donors are buying nothing more than a good time for everyone.

“This privately-funded gala celebration is a way to thank Georgians in every corner of their state for their support of the governor and the rest of our statewide elected officials,” Deal spokeswoman Jennifer Talaber said.

Washington is among the few states that have taken steps to curb the potential for influence-buying in inaugural celebrations.

Its inaugural balls are planned by a non-partisan committee of citizen volunteers, with all costs covered by the price of admission. Corporate sponsors such as Microsoft or Bank of America sometimes pay for their own receptions beforehand for VIP attendees, said Dan Neuhauser, president of the Governor’s Inaugural Ball Committee.

“We don’t take any money from political groups,” he said. “Everybody can come together without having a cause on their shoulder. They can just have a good time.”

He did not qualify for any tax subsidies, but his mother was willing to pay for catastrophic coverage.

“Anybody can purchase an insurance plan on the Marketplace,” said Kristen Varner, human resources director. “They just may not get help paying premiums.”

Whether it’s through your employer, an independent insurance agent or the Marketplace, all Americans are required to have health insurance or face penalties starting this year when they file their 2014 taxes. The cost of not being covered will continue to increase during the next two years. A few exemptions exist, but they will need to be discussed with your tax preparer.

When people see the penalties in black and white, Varner predicts they will be flooded with people wanting to enroll for 2015 coverage. But the window to register is even shorter than last year — three months versus six — so Certified Application Counselors such as Dennis and Del Rio as well as insurance providers such as BlueCross BlueShield of South Caroli-

FERGUSON FROM PAGE A1 charged seemed to come out of nowhere.

During his two terms as mayor, Brian Fletcher — who helped launch the I Love Ferguson Committee this summer — says he received plenty of complaints about potholes and barking dogs. But nothing of a racial nature.

“So the part about how some people said this has been brewing for decades was surprising a little bit,” says Fletcher, who is white.

“It has truly been ironic that Ferguson became the forum to fight the large battle of diversity when, in fact, Ferguson is a very diverse city,” Ruffina Farrokh Anklesaria, an ethnic Indian from Trinidad and Tobago, said as she folded T-shirts for shipment.

But across town at the Canfield Green Apartments, the disaffection and anger are palpable.

Rotting flowers and Teddy bears in St. Louis Cardinals caps line the center line of Canfield Drive, where Michael Brown’s body lay for four hours in the August sun.

Even if you have a plan, you might want to recheck it.

“Customers currently holding policies should check to see if the additional options available for the coming year might be a better fit,” said Eliza-

country.

Standing nearby, Ken “Kennyboy” Boyd repeats a rumor that at least one of the fires that destroyed a dozen businesses during the Nov. 24 unrest was actually set by a National Guard flash grenade.

“I don’t know if the power got the message,” says Boyd. “They want to sacrifice a whole country for one man.”

The population of Ferguson is nearly 70 percent black. But at the time of Brown’s death, only three of the city’s 53 police officers were black.

••• In mid-November, Gov. Jay Nixon appointed a 16-member commission to study the “underlying social and economic conditions” that led to the unrest and to “help chart a new path toward healing and positive change.”

But if the first meetings of his Ferguson Commission are any indication, that path forward is a bumpy one.

At a meeting in St. Louis’ Shaw neighborhood, the commission had invited St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson to speak about efforts to curb bias, excessive force and racial profiling within the ranks. Dotson declared that most police officers believe in the

Since Brown’s death, Ferguson police have begun using body and dashboard cameras. The city council has started the process of establishing a citizen review board and is increasing monetary incentives to encourage officers to live in the city.

Chief Tom Jackson says there are now four black officers on the force. Councilors have established a scholarship to help minority recruits pay for academy training, something the city had abandoned in the past.

The department is also working with the Ferguson-Florissant School District to establish an Explorer program to create, as Mayor James W. Knowles III puts it, “a bullpen that we can hopefully recruit from, get people interested in law enforcement.”

Sumter County has already seen its first fatal crash of 2015, as a Dalzell man died after losing control of his vehicle on U.S. 76 early Friday morning.

Officials encouraged drivers to buckle up each time they get into a vehicle.

Jones noted that speeding is the second-leading cause of fatal crashes, and driving under the influence continues to be the No. 1 cause.

“Drive with a little patience; avoid distractions,” he said. “Those are always things that people can do to make your ride a safer ride. And of course drive defensively because there are other drivers out on the roadway.”

BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina along with CoventryOne and Consumers’ Choice Health Plan have been the three most popular. Five companies in the state are offering options on the Marketplace.

Couples in their 60s who took early retirement and don’t yet qualify for Medicare have been coming in the most lately, Del Rio said, and before that they saw people in their 30s and 40s. It’s been a mix of patients and community members, she said, and they’ve had lots of questions about penalties. As the options are based on your county of residence, they’ve also been referring a number of people to their sister community health care centers in surrounding areas.

Varner agreed and added some premiums have gone up. She also recommended checking that your health care provider still accepts your insurance company.

Del Rio and Dennis often work together to contact primary care physicians, Del Rio said. While one works with an individual or family, the other makes the phone call to the health care provider.

Once you register for a plan, you cannot change it until the next open enrollment period unless you have a qualifying life-changing circumstance such as getting a new job or having a baby, Del Rio said.

The first weeks of open enrollment were busy, especially Dec. 15, Del Rio said. That was the final day to sign up for coverage by Jan. 1. It slowed around the holidays, Del Rio said, but she expects it to pick back up soon as several appointments are already scheduled for January.

“What happened in Ferguson in August is writing a narrative,” he said. “We want that narrative to be a positive one that moves our region forward.”

Several minutes into his address, the meeting dissolved into chaos.

Some complained about the panel’s makeup. The only commission member with a direct Ferguson connection is a white man who owns a business in town but no longer lives there.

Ferguson veterinarian Dan Wentz says that’s no excuse.

Wentz, who is white, has attended every commission meeting and spent hours in smaller breakout discussions. But of the hundreds of people in attendance, he recognized only a few Ferguson faces. He says residents need to take ownership of the process.

THE SUMTER ITEM

U.S. expected to grow at fastest pace in a decade Experts: Global economy to rise about 3 percent

global economy is also expected to grow faster, at about 3 percent, up from 2.5 percent in 2014, according to economists at JPMorgan Chase and IHS Global Insight.

CHEERING CHEAPER OIL

BY CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON — The United States is back and ready to drive global growth in 2015.

After long struggling to claw its way out of the Great Recession, the world’s biggest economy is on an extended win streak that is edging it closer to full health. But the new year doesn’t look quite so bright in other major countries.

China is slowing as it transitions from investment to consumption. Japan has slid into a recession. Russia appears headed for one. Europe is barely growing.

And the U.S.?

Six years after its financial system nearly sank and nearly that long since the recession ended, the United States is expected to grow in 2015 at its fastest pace in a decade.

Its expansion from July through September — a 5 percent annual rate — was the swiftest for any quarter since 2003.

That pace will likely ease a bit. Still, the economy is expected to expand 3.1 percent this year, according to a survey by the National Association for Business Economics.

It would be the first year of 3 percent growth since 2005.

The acceleration of U.S. growth is a key reason the

Plunging oil prices are a big reason for the optimism. Prices have been cut roughly in half since summer. In some areas of the country, gasoline prices have slipped below $2 a gallon.

The drop, along with more fuelefficient cars, will save the average U.S. household $550 on gas this year, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. That means consumers have more to spend on items such as cars, furniture and appliances.

What’s more, Americans’ finances are in firmer shape.

Job growth is accelerating.

Businesses are investing in buildings and software, and home building is expected to pick up.

Lower oil prices will also help Europe and Japan, and the global economy should expand faster than it did in 2014, economists say. But the divergence between the United States and most of the rest of the world is striking and carries some risks. Big exporters, from China to Germany to Japan, will depend heavily on a recovering U.S. to boost their economies.

A pickup in global growth “is highly dependent on the assumption that the U.S. economy continues to improve,” said Douglas Porter, chief economist at BMO Capital Markets. “If that doesn’t play out, there’s not much left for the global economy to fall

back on.

SWIRLING GLOBAL HEADWINDS Even if the U.S. economy does strengthen further, the rest of the world could struggle. For one thing, faster growth will likely lead the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in 2015, which could draw more investment from overseas. The inflow of capital would raise the dollar’s value and potentially cause destabilizing drops in other currencies. Governments and businesses overseas that borrowed in dollars would find it harder to repay those debts.

The hot economies of the last decade — the emerging markets of Brazil, Russia, India and China collectively known as the “BRICs” — will likely grow in 2015 at their slowest pace in six years, according to Oxford Economics, a forecasting firm. Falling oil and commodity prices have smacked Brazil and Russia particularly hard.

China may expand 6.5 percent or more. Yet that’s a far cry from the nearly doubledigit growth it enjoyed for decades. Europe and Japan will be lucky to expand even 1 percent.

The gap between the U.S. and the rest of the world reflects a fundamental trait of the U.S. economy: It’s more insulated from the rest of the world’s ups and downs than other major economies are.

Exports account for just 14 percent of U.S. output, the smallest share among the 34 mostly rich members of the Organization for Economic

Cooperation and Development.

One U.S. company largely protected from overseas trends is Globe Specialty Metals, a Miami-based producer of silicon metals that draws 90 percent of its revenue from North America. Its silicon is added to aluminum and rubber parts used in cars, and robust auto sales have boosted the company’s revenue.

CEO Jeff Bradley says he’s optimistic about 2015. As gas prices have sunk, Americans have been buying more SUVs and pickups, which use more aluminum. Demand for solar power panels is also lifting sales.

“Things are lining up for 2015 to be one of the best years in the history of our company,” Bradley said.

POWERING U.S. CONSUMERS In the United States, consumers are the main drivers of growth. And fortunes are looking up for more households.

Employers were on track to add the most jobs in 15 years in 2014. As a percentage of income, Americans’ debt has dropped to 2002 levels.

In some ways, the U.S. economy actually benefits from slower growth abroad. Investors in search of safety have plowed money into Treasurys, thereby helping hold down inflation and U.S loan rates, including for mortgages. Lower rates, in turn, could fuel more home sales and construction this year.

Stan Humphries, chief economist at Zillow, thinks Americans ages 25 to 34, stung by higher rents, will buy homes in greater numbers by the end

of 2015. Mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae have relaxed their down payment requirements, which were a strain for younger would-be buyers. Humphries also thinks developers will build more lower-priced homes that millennials can afford.

Some signs of hope overseas have emerged. Falling oil prices should benefit people in Europe, Japan and China, all of which import oil. And analysts expect the European Central Bank to ramp up its stimulus efforts, possibly by buying government bonds.

That step would inject more cash into the economy to boost lending and keep rates low.

DOUBTING JAPAN The global economy’s biggest wild card this year might be Japan. It slid into recession last quarter after a sales tax hike hammered consumer spending. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has delayed a second increase to 2017.

Japan’s central bank is buying government bonds and other financial assets in a bid to boost inflation and stimulate growth. Yet so far, wages haven’t risen in line with prices, thereby threatening consumer spending.

Masaaki Ogawa, a thirdgeneration vegetable shop owner on Tokyo’s downtown Sugamo shopping street, is among many who feel frustrated.

“The older people have money, but they don’t want to spend it,” Ogawa said. “The younger people want to spend, but they don’t have any money.”

THE SUMTER ITEM

Disabled used as slaves on South Korean island

KIM KANG-WON An activist who participated in the recent investigation on Sinui abled facilities that found more than 100 workers who had received no, or scant, pay.

Yet little has changed on the islands, according to a monthslong investigation by the AP based on court and police documents and dozens of interviews with freed slaves, salt farmers, villagers and officials.

Although 50 island farm owners and regional job brokers were indicted, national police say no local police or officials will face punishment, despite multiple interviews showing some knew about the slaves and even stopped escape attempts.

Soon after the national investigation, activists and police found an additional 63 unpaid or underpaid workers on the islands, three-quarters of whom were mentally disabled.

Kim’s former boss, Hong Jeong-gi, didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment through his lawyer. He’s set to appeal a 3 1/2-year prison sentence next week.

Other farmers often describe themselves as providing oases for the disabled and homeless.

“These are people who are neglected and mistreated,” Hong Chi-guk, a 64-year-old salt farmer in Sinui, told the AP. “What alternative does our society have for them?”

••• The night of July 4, 2012, Kim, who’d been homeless for a decade, was sleeping in a Seoul train station when a stranger offered him a place to stay and a job in the morning.

Hours later, he stood on a Sinui island salt farm. Hong had paid an illegal job agent the equivalent of about $700 for his new worker, according to court records.

The beatings began the first day on the farm for Kim, who’s visually disabled and described in court documents as having the social awareness of a 12-year-old.

“Each time I tried to ask him something, his punch came first,” Kim told the AP. Only a week after his first escape was thwarted, Kim began to plan another.

He and the other slave, Chae Min-sik, again tried to find their way to a port. But the grocery owner’s son, identified by officials only as Yoon, rounded them up again and called Hong.

After another beating, it was back to work.

Hong, Kim discovered, was an influential man, a former village head. Despite his fear, Kim

ran again at the end of the month. Again, Yoon captured them.

Furious, the owner said that if Kim ran again, he’d get a knife in the stomach. Hong beat Kim so badly he broke Kim’s glasses. He worked Kim so hard the slave was too tired to think about escape.

••• The number of people enslaved is difficult to determine because of the transient work, the remoteness of the farms and the closeness — and often hostility — of the island communities. Social workers think many slaves have yet to be found, and that investigations have so far been inadequate.

“If the recent investigation was done properly, then pretty much everyone on the island should’ve been taken to the police station and charged,” said Kim Kang-won, an activist who participated in the recent investigation on Sinui. “The whole village knew about it.”

Provincial police have vowed to inspect farms and interview workers regularly, but people familiar with the island confirm that slavery is rampant.

“The police chief would tell me that I’d eventually come to understand that this was how things on the island worked,” said Cho Yong-su, a doctor who worked at the Sinui Island public health center from 2006 to 2007.

Han Bong-cheol, a pastor in Mokpo who lived on Sinui Island for 19 years until June, sympathized with farmers forced to deal with disabled, incompetent workers. “They spend their leisure time eating snacks, drinking alcohol and

Sumter S um mter F Family am mily

smoking cigarettes. They are taken once or twice a year to Mokpo so they can buy sex. It’s a painful reality, but it’s a pain the island has long shared as a community.”

••• After a year and a half as a slave, Kim made one last bid for freedom.

He managed to mail a letter to his mother in Seoul. Kim’s mother brought the letter, which gave directions to the farm, to Seo Je-gong, then a police captain.

Because Kim’s letter noted collaboration between local police and salt farm owners, Seo and another Seoul officer went to the island posing as tourists who’d come to fish and buy salt.

They visited Hong’s home while he was away and found the slaves sitting on a mattress in a room without heat or hot water.

Kim, Seo said, looked like a homeless person.

Kim was frightened and baffled, then relieved. “I am going to live,” he said.

Chae initially refused to leave Sinui but was freed later after Seo found a 2008 missing person’s report for Chae. He now lives in a Seoul shelter.

Yoon, who repeatedly captured Kim and Chae, was fined $7,500.

Kim, who lives in Seoul and occasionally works construction jobs, settled with Hong for about $35,000 in unpaid wages.

He has nightmares and receives treatment for his injuries.

He also gets flustered when he talks about salt, disgusted when he sees it. “Just thinking about it makes me grind my teeth.”

SINUI ISLAND, South Korea — He ran the first chance he got.

The sun beat down on the shallow, sea-fed fields where Kim Seong-baek was forced to work without pay, day after 18hour day mining the big salt crystals that blossomed in the mud around him. Half blind and in rags, Kim grabbed another slave, and the two disabled men headed for the coast.

Far from the glittering steeland-glass capital of Seoul, they were now hunted men on this remote island where the enslavement of disabled salt farm workers is an open secret.

“It was a living hell,” Kim said in a recent series of interviews with The Associated Press whose details are corroborated by court records and by lawyers, police and government officials.

Lost, they wandered past asphalt-black salt fields sparkling with a patina of thin white crust. They could feel the islanders inspecting them. Everyone knew who belonged and who didn’t.

Near a grocery, the store owner’s son rounded them up and called their boss, who beat Kim with a rake and sent him back to the salt fields.

••• Slavery thrives on rural islands off South Korea’s rugged southwest coast, nurtured by a long history of exploitation and the demands of trying to squeeze a living from the sea.

Two-thirds of South Korea’s sea salt is produced at more than 850 salt farms on dozens of islands in Sinan County, including Sinui island, where half the 2,200 residents work in the industry. Workers spend grueling days managing a complex network of waterways, hoses and storage areas.

Five times during the last decade, revelations of slavery involving the disabled have emerged. Kim’s case prompted a nationwide government probe of thousands of farms and dis-

Happy 80th birthday to The King A

very important date is coming up this week on Thursday, Jan. 8.

Eighty years ago on that date, Elvis Aaron Presley was born.

As a matter of fact, my father was also born on that date. That’s why I remember it every year.

I also remember when I first saw Elvis in person, at a concert in Charleston at the College Park baseball field on June 28, 1956.

I had first seen him on TV and collected many of his records. I enjoyed them even as I was driving my mother crazy spinning “Hound Dog” on the record player over and over again. She threatened to play that song at my wedding if I didn’t turn it off. When I found out that

COMMENTARY Elvis was going to perform in Charleston, I jumped at the opportunity and secured two tickets, one for me and the other for my friend Craig Hurst. My mother was aghast that I was planning to drive to Charleston and see Elvis perform.

“Why do Hubert D. you want to drive all the Osteen Jr. way to Charleston to see that po’ buckra in person!?” she shouted at me.

“You’re out of your mind!” she exclaimed.

I assured her it was just a way to pass the time during

a lazy summer day and have a new experience. She relented, and Craig and I headed south to see what the big deal was about Elvis Presley.

We weren’t disappointed.

The baseball field was packed with screaming teenage girls and a few guys.

The King didn’t disappoint.

He put on a rollicking show that had the girls trying to climb on the stage. He delivered a masterful closing number of “Hound Dog,” bumping and grinding his way around the stage, sending the mostly female audience into hysterics.

Hurst and I were mesmerized by his performance, having never seen anything quite like the gyrations Elvis displayed.

A year later, 1957, while attending college in Missouri, I

read in the St. Louis PostDispatch that Elvis would be performing at Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis on Jan. 1. I persuaded a college friend who was from St. Louis to accompany me to the concert in his hometown. Like my mother, he was dubious.

“Why do you want to travel 100 miles to see that hillbilly?” he cracked.

I assured him he would enjoy the spectacle that is an Elvis Presley concert. Again, The King delivered. Kiel Auditorium was packed with 11,000 screaming fans, mostly girls, who were thrown into convulsions when he came on stage in a gold lame’ suit. (The promoter of the show told reporters the suit was real gold and had cost $2,500, plus it supposedly had fabric in it of impregnated

unborn calf skin, “Or something of the sort,” he explained.)

An arts critic wrote of Elvis’ contortions that “his most appreciated medium of expression seemed to be burlesque’s traditional hip movements.” He sure got that right. One other highlight of the evening occurred when the female fans tried to storm the stage and cops beat them back with billy sticks. As for my friend who attended with me, he was shouting his head off at Elvis’ tour de force: “I’ve never seen anything like that in my life!” he bellowed.

Me either.

That’s why he was called The King. Happy 80th, Elvis.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR GOD HAS BLESSED US, BUT WE STILL FACE CHALLENGES Observing the generosity of so many Sumter citizens during this holiday season was a blessing. Seeing so many people and organizations providing delicious meals to the hungry, visiting nursing homes and gathering gifts for needy children was heartfelt. This is God’s way of celebrating the birth of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

God truly blessed our country, state and county.

We are not where we want to be, but thank God we are not where we used to be. We overcame the worst financial crisis and then the worst recession since the Great Depression.

America is now the No. 1 producer of oil and natural gas. Our stock market is at a record high. Unemployment has dropped from 10 percent in 2009 to 5.8 percent in 2014.

Job creation is the best since the 1990’s. More than 10 million Americans have health insurance under the Affordable Care Act. The federal deficit that was more than one trillion dollars in 2009 has been cut by more than half. Most noteworthy, our current workforce is the best educated, most diverse and most digitally fluent in American history.

Although South Carolina’s unemployment rate of 6.7 percent is above the national rate, the number of South Carolinians working has reached a record high of 2.05 million people in November as the state added about 5,100 jobs. S.C. has added about 29,000 jobs in 2014.

Sumter County’s unemployment rate has also dropped, and job creation is on the upswing. The per-capita income in Sumter is at a record high.

The Penny for Progress program has made Sumter more attractive for new business and industry. Sumter voters believed that “When you invest in yourself, others will invest in you.” Consequently, in November, the majority of voters voted to extend the Penny for Progress for another seven years.

Entering 2015, many new challenges face us. We must resolve crumbling roads and bridges, equal education disparity, high rates of domestic violence and HIV/AIDS. Our future prosperity is in God’s hands.

I wish everyone happiness and success throughout the coming year.

Haley, Wilson and the worst thing in South Carolina’s politics in 40 years

I

have been actively involved in politics in South Carolina for almost 40 years, and what Gov. Nikki Haley and Attorney General Alan Wilson recently did in the Abbeville education case is without question the worst and most outrageous action I have ever seen. The Worst.

For 21 years — yes, 21 years — a lawsuit filed on behalf of the students of Abbeville County and several other rural school districts, i.e. on behalf of the poorest students in the poorest school districts in the poorest counties of our state, has been tortuously working its way through the state’s court system.

In November, the S.C. Supreme Court, in Phil essence, ruled that stu- Noble dents in the plaintiff districts were not even receiving the “minimally adequate” education to which they are entitled under previous Supreme Court rulings. However, the Court was not specific about what needed to be done and left it up to the governor and legislature to develop and implement a plan to remedy the problem.

(Full disclosure — I am very proud to say that the S.C. New Democrats’ founder, former Gov. Richard Riley, was the prime mover in the suit. His law firm, Nelson Mullins Riley and Scarborough, has handled the case from the very beginning on a pro-bono basis, clearly spending tens of millions of dollars of the firm’s money on the case during the 21 years.)

COMMENTARY At which point, Gov. Haley, with an assist from state Attorney General Alan Wilson, unveiled her solution: She quietly filed a motion asking the court to throw out its November decision and try the case again … yes, the case that the students stuck in the failing school districts have been waiting on for the last 21 years.

Ever since Haley’s and Wilson’s announcement a few days ago, I have struggled to come up with the right words to describe what they have done.

So far, I’ve come up with several: outrageous — disgraceful — obscene — scandalous — stupid — hateful — cold hearted — cynical — insane — irresponsible – short sighted — shameful — Neanderthal — cruel — insulting and mean.

I then tried to think of an analogy that illustrates the absurdity of what they have done. Again, I came up with quite a few: It’s like showing up at a huge car wreck with bleeding bodies lying all around and saying, “Cancel the ambulance call, I have a box of Band-Aids in my purse.”

It’s like throwing a drowning man an anvil instead of a life preserver.

It’s like preventing a doctor from giving your suffering child some lifesaving medicine because you don’t like where he went to med school.

And make no mistake about it, our state’s public schools are ‘bleeding … drowning … suffering.’

And to add insult to injury, Haley said the court should dismiss the case and ignore generations of neglect,

thousands of inadequate teachers and hundreds of bad schools because she decided to spend an extra $130 million in her budget last year for education and this would take care of the problem. See the Band-Aid analogy above.

“Now, now,” you say, “clearly you are overreacting and just being partisan.”

No, I’m not. This is a huge deal, and it is that important for our state.

So, what are we to do? What can we do?

The truth is, I don’t know. I’ve thought about it a lot, and I’ve talked with lots of people, but I just don’t know what we can do that will make any difference.

Yes, we should all call Gov. Haley and Alan Wilson and tell them to withdraw their request. I don’t think it will do any good, but we should all call anyway.

And then we should wait and see what happens. We might get the chance to do something more specific and meaningful later on.

But, there is one thing you can do — and do it right now. You can remember what they have done. They are both ambitious politicians who will probably run for another office.

You can decide to never vote for them and urge others to do the same and tell them why.

Do it — for our state’s children and their future.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t let EUGENIA LAST emotions take over, causing you to do or say something you’ll regret. A change that takes place will turn out to be good if you wait and let things unfold naturally.

Focus on making personal improvements.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Put your energy into visiting people or places that will help you learn to make better choices this year.

Moderation and cutting corners should be implemented before you take on something new.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Money matters will strike an emotional chord if you have been liberal with your spending. Consider what you can do or sell to offset your debt and ease your stress. Someone will offer help, but be wary of the cost.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Get promises in writing. Someone may not follow through on something they offered on a whim. You have to look out for your own interests and try to find a solid deal without stipulations.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Network, listen and look for alternatives to the way you do things. Review what you have to offer and try to become a strong contender for a position that interests you. Be positive and make an offer that’s hard to refuse.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Take control before someone steps into your position and jeopardizes your chance to advance. Innovation will put you in the running for a project you want to pursue. Consistency is good, but originality will be necessary.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t let the changes going on at home or within a relationship deter you from pursuing your dreams, hopes and wishes. Love is on the rise along with self-improvement and connecting with people from your past.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t be fooled by a sales pitch promising the impossible. Be honest with yourself about the possibilities that exist and the best way to reach your goals with the least amount of cost. An unusual development will entice you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may be accomplishing a lot, but don’t brag or you will end up facing someone who will give you a run for your money. A humble and gracious attitude will improve your popularity and future prospects.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t venture too far off your target or you will miss your goal. A lastminute change is likely to occur, but shouldn’t alter your course or plan of action. Self-improvement will get you much further than trying to change someone else.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): An opportunity will develop, but before you jump in with two feet, ask questions that will eliminate uncertainties. A change in your health or physical appearance is apparent. Accept change with an open heart and attitude.

Panthers maul Cards 27-16

Carolina wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin (13) runs past Arizona cornerback Patrick Peterson during the Panthers’ 27-16 victory on Saturday in an NFC wild-card game in Charlotte.

BY TOM O’HARE Special To The Sumter Item CHARLOTTE — Want to advance to the second round of the National Football League playoffs?

Find an opponent that is down to its third-string quarterback and thirdstring running back.

That was the fortune of the Carolina Panthers, who beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-16 in a National Football Conference wildcard game on Saturday at Bank of America Stadium.

It marked the Panthers’ first playoff win since 2005 when they defeated the

Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship game.

“This was a great game, for our team, and especially for our fans,” said Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who won his first playoff game. “It was a whole lot of excitement and rightfully so.”

Carolina will be on the road against either Seattle or Green Bay in a divisional playoff game. The Panthers will play at top-seeded Seattle if Dallas beats Detroit today.. If the Lions win, Carolina will play at Green Bay. The Panthers ended the contest with a record-set-

ting defensive performance by limiting Arizona to 78 yards of total offense, the lowest amount allowed in an NFL postseason contest.

“We obviously did some good things on defense, and we caught this team at the right time,” said Panthers head coach Ron Rivera.

The Panthers came into the playoffs with a 7-8-1 record, which was good enough to win the NFC South.

“I think this win validates some of the changes

Starling records double-double for USC Upstate in recent loss

Soph. guard, Thornwell lead USC past Cyclones for 1st win over top-10 team in last 5 seasons

BY BARBARA BOXLEITNER Special To The Sumter Item

T

uesday’s game between the USC Upstate and College of Charleston women’s basketball teams had the potential to deliver a matchup between former local high school players.

However, College of Charleston’s Mikaela Hopkins, a Thomas Sumter Academy graduate, wasn’t in the lineSTARLING up against Upstate’s Brittany Starling.

Sumter High School graduate Starling stole the show for Upstate (7-6) in a losing effort, as Charleston (2-9) won by a point. The junior scored a career-high 30 points and added 14 rebounds to lead all players.

Through 13 games, Starling averaged 13.2 points, second on the team. Her 8.9 rebounds per game led the team and ranked fourth in the Atlantic Sun Conference.

Senior Hopkins, meantime, averaged 4.4 points and 3.3 rebounds through 10 games.

BY LARRY FLEISHER The Associated Press NEW YORK — Sindarius Thornwell broke out of a slump in a big way for South Carolina.

Thornwell scored five of his 13 points in the final 2 minutes and came up with a key turnover in the final seconds in South Carolina’s 64-60 victory over No. 9 Iowa State on Saturday night at Barclays Center.

“I see the concerns of the people who follow our program that he’s not playing well,” head coach Frank Martin said. “We judge too many people by how many points they score in a game. Did you see Sindarius’ matchup score today? That guy’s a heck of a player and he’s a fifth-year senior. His matchup (Bryce DeJean-Jones) scored three points. He’s not playing bad. He just needs the confidence to see that ball go through that basket. Making some of those shots down the stretch hopefully engages him offensively a little more.”

Duane Notice led the Gamecocks with 15 points and Tyrone Johnson had 13 to help South Carolina beat a Top 10 team for the first time since knocking off Kentucky on Jan. 26, 2010.

Iowa State missed its first 15 3-pointers and finished 1 of 18.

“I thought it was really (decided) the first 12 minutes,” Cyclones coach Fred Hoiberg said “We talked about throwing the first punch and we didn’t. It was 8-0 on the boards before we could even blink and it was 26-13

CLEMSON COMMENTARY

Stoudt’s long journey has storybook ending G ood for Cole Stoudt.

If ever there was a college football player who deserved to finish his career on a high note, it was Cole Stoudt.

Stoudt, Clemson’s fifth-year senior quarterback, had the game of his career in his finale, a 40-6 victory over Oklahoma in the Russell Athletic Bowl. He completed 26 of 36 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another score.

You didn’t want to see him have that kind of game because he’s a good guy. You wanted that for him because of what he had been through this season.

There’s being much maligned, and then there’s what happened to Stoudt. He was ridiculed in

such a way by a small part of the Clemson fan base that I don’t recall any other college athlete having to face from the supporters of Dennis his team.

Brunson Did Stoudt play well? Not very often, and sometimes he certainly looked totally out of his element. Perhaps his play is why quarterback Chad Kelly threw the hissy fit that got him booted off the Clemson team after head coach Dabo Swinney announced Stoudt had won the job following spring practice.

When the games began and fans got a look at true freshman Deshaun Watson, it was obvious to see Watson’s abilities were at a different level than those of Stoudt. Even those who were “supporters” of Stoudt could see it was just a matter of time before Watson got the job.

However, the amount of vitriol that small portion of Tiger fans spewed out was hard to fathom. Yes, Stoudt made some horrendous throws and decisions throughout the year, but he didn’t deserve to catch some of the grief he did.

One thing that was overlooked is the fact he answered

New Florida head coach Jim McElwain said that quarterback Jeff Driskel (6) has asked to be released from his scholarship.

McElwain: QB Driskel seeks transfer from UF BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Florida quarterback Jeff Driskel has asked to be released from his scholarship.

New Gators head coach Jim McElwain said before Saturday’s Birmingham Bowl against East Carolina that the former starting quarterback has asked for the release.

McElwain, who was not coaching in the game, said the decision is up to Driskel, who came into the game late in the second quarter.

Says McElwain: “We all have choices, and we’re not going to hold him hostage.’’

Freshman Treon Harris started the final six games. Driskel started 12 games in 2012 and the first three last season before a broken leg sidelined him.

He opened the season strong in the first two games but struggled in the next four. He was intercepted nine times and lost three fumbles before getting benched.

Green suffered the concussion during a loss in Pittsburgh on Sunday night that relegated the Bengals (10-5-1) to a wild-card berth. The Pro Bowl receiver didn’t pass concussion tests and was ruled out on Saturday.

Tight end Jermaine Gresham was listed as questionable with a sore back.

Players are barred from traveling or practicing from Dec. 24-26 under the collective bargaining agreement.

Florida defensive back Brian Poole (24) returns an interception for a touchdown against East Carolina during the Gators’ 28-20 victory in Saturday’s Birmingham Bowl in Birmingham, Ala.

Florida holds off ECU 28-20 BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Treon Harris threw an 86yard scoring pass to Ahmad Fulwood and Vernon Hargreaves III intercepted a pass in the end zone late to preserve Florida’s 28-20 victory over East Carolina on Saturday in the Birmingham Bowl.

The big plays helped the Gators (7-5) finish a disappointing season with a winning record while new coach Jim McElwain was among the spectators. Brian Poole also scored on a 29-yard interception return and Florida’s defense repeatedly turned East Carolina’s high-powered offense away from the end zone.

Shane Carden was 34 of 66 for 427 yards for the Pirates (8-5) but Hargreaves’ pick with 1:20 left ended his day.

Lockett had 13 catches for 164 yards for Kansas State.

Waters was 31 of 48 for 338 yards, but was sacked seven times — twice by Butkus Award winner Eric Kendricks — and threw two interceptions and lost a fumble.

to be the best I could be and just enjoy the last game and that is what we did.”

Indeed.

Defense let Alabama down at times after years of powering the Crimson Tide to wins and titles.

The result was a team that got caught up in a couple of shootouts, gave up too many big plays and finally succumbed to Ohio State SABAN 42-35 in the playoff semifinals Thursday night in New Orleans. With Lane Kiffin’s offense piling up yards and points, this wasn’t vintage Alabama, except for the winning and contending.

Tide coach Nick Saban’s team fell short of the national championship game and a shot at its fourth title in six years. The group might actually have overachieved in winning 12 games and the Southeastern Conference title simply because of a defense and offensive line that weren’t as dominant as they had been in recent years.

“This team excelled all year long,’’ Saban said.

“They kept Alabama in the forefront of college football everywhere in the country, based on the hard work and the improvement that they made throughout the season.

“So I’m very proud of what this team was able to accomplish.’’

Alabama’s unprecedented six-year run as the league’s top defense ended, and the Tide ranked 58th nationally defending the pass.

Then Blake Sims, who hadn’t been prone to big mistakes, threw three interceptions in both the regular-season finale against Auburn and the Sugar Bowl.

“We turned the ball over a lot,’’ tailback T.J. Yeldon said. “It killed us last year. It killed us this year. Coming into a bowl game, you’ve got to take care of the ball.’’

Wade looks ahead after year of change

BY TIM REYNOLDS The Associated Press MIAMI — Dwyane Wade still gets angry. Just not as often.

After a year like he had, that says something. It was eventful, often for unpleasant reasons such as his Miami Heat falling from the NBA mountaintop, a superstar friend deciding to leave the locker room they shared and a team rebuilding project.

For him, 2014 was like none other.

“It was just a different year,’’ Wade told The Associated Press. “Every year you go into a new one, you do the New Year’s Eve resolutions and you sit there and think `Yeah, this going to be the year.’ What I like to see from myself is how I respond to the moments where it’s not the highs. I know how I respond to the highs. But how do I respond in moments of truth?’’

He’s finding out.

The Heat are 14-19 as the calendar flips to 2015, barely hanging on to the No. 8 spot in a weak Eastern Conference. LeBron James is wearing a Cleveland uniform now. Miami lost 12 games in December alone, and that’s after Wade lost millions in an effort to keep the team’s championship core together last summer.

How much he lost, only time will tell. He was guaranteed $41 million from the Heat through 2015-16 before opting out; his current deal assures $31 million over that span.

The 32-year-old Wade could be a free agent again this summer, since next season’s contract is at his option.

“I’ll be all right,’’ Wade said with a shrug.

“It cost me a lot. But it wasn’t The Decision that cost me,’’ the three-time champion said of his opt-out move, and James’ choice to leave for

Cleveland. “It was my decision. I opted out for the better of the team, not for any individual. I opted out for the better of the team and it cost me some money. I’m not concerned about it. Not overly concerned, anyway.’’

This is when he reveals that he’s happy, even with the Heat struggling.

He has coaching privileges in practice now. If he doesn’t like something, he can stop the play, correct and teach.

He’s been encouraged to pull players aside and tell them what he wants, since what he wants and what the Heat want are almost always in perfect alignment.

“He has that experience, that impact with his voice,’’ Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “He’s been great in embracing that. It’s the most leadership that’s required of him since he’s been here.’’

Wade’s business deals keep growing and his marketability isn’t suffering. He got married again last year, tying the knot with actress Gabrielle Union after years of dating. He’s a de facto father of four now; three of his kids, plus raising a nephew.

And he can still play.

Wade entered Thursday sixth in the NBA in scoring this season, at 23.2 points per game.

He’s shooting 51 percent.

“In my professional life, I got comfortable in a role and I thought maybe this is it, maybe this is how I end my career,’’ Wade said. “And then it changed and I’m showing myself that I can still do the things I want to do. And my family, starting over as well.

It’s my second time getting married. Let’s see if I can do it right this time, do it better.’’

In separate interviews, Wade and Union referred to the changes in his life the same way — as a rebirth.

Miami guard Dwyane Wade (3) isn’t looking back on what might have been after LeBron James left for Cleveland and the Heat’s 4-year championship-contending run came to an end.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Injuries to LeBron James (23) have dealt another blow to a Cleveland team that has already struggled on the court in the midst of high expectations.

LeBron’s injuries big blow to crawling Cavs

BY TOM WITHERS The Associated Press CLEVELAND — The chemistry has been slow to develop. The rookie coach is under fire. The record isn’t nearly what it’s supposed to be.

No, the Cleveland Cavaliers aren’t having the season everyone expected. Not even close. And now, superstar LeBron James will sit out for at least two weeks.

The championship chase is now a crawl.

James was diagnosed with strains to his left knee and lower back and will be sidelined until they heal. In the meantime, the Cavs need to get themselves patched up.

The injuries to the fourtime NBA MVP have threatened to capsize his homecoming season in Cleveland and further hinder the struggling Cavs, who have been jarred by a rash of medical issues and haven’t lived up to the enormous expectations triggered by James re-signing as a free agent last summer.

James’ injuries added to a turbulent week in which there has been growing speculation about coach

David Blatt’s future, James’ commitment to Cleveland was again questioned, forward Kevin Love was sidelined with back spasms and starting forward Anderson Varejao underwent seasonending surgery after tearing his Achilles.

The Cavs (18-14) have lost three straight games and four of five heading into Friday’s matchup in Charlotte. James, who missed the previous two games, didn’t make the trip and it’s not clear when he’ll rejoin his teammates, some of whom are about to be reminded what the previous four years were like without him.

But even when James has been at full strength — he said Wednesday that his knee has bothered him most of the season — the Cavs have not clicked at either end of the floor. Blatt has struggled trying to find the right rotations and the former international coaching legend is still adjusting to the NBA game.

Cleveland has lacked defensive intensity, the bench has been inconsistent at best and the Cavs aren’t deep enough to handle any significant injuries.

Compounding things for Blatt was a report that there’s concern within the organization that he doesn’t seem to be connecting with his players. Blatt, who was hired before James decided to come back to Ohio, believes he and the 10-time All-Star are on the same page and their relationship is growing.

But until the losses turn to wins, the pressure will only increase the scrutiny on Blatt, whose external challenge was to get his team playing at a championship level right away. James had preached patience in the poignant essay he wrote in July, saying the team would need time to jell.

However, the team’s acquisition of Love in a blockbuster trade made the Cavs title favorites.

They don’t look like one.

The Cavs were thin up front before Varejao went down, and general manager David Griffin has explored trades to bring in a rim-protecting big man and help for the bench. But Cleveland’s problems may run deeper than that, and James’ health has suddenly added an unexpected hurdle.

QB legacies on the line?

Cowboys’ Romo, Lions’ Stafford return to postseason with eyes on ultimate prize

BY SCHUYLER DIXON The Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Tony Romo’s first playoff game in five years is a second chance for the quarterback on the other side, Detroit’s Matthew Stafford.

Who knows how many more opportunities there will be for the 34-year-old Romo with the Dallas Cowboys, who have one playoff win since the last time they were anywhere near the Super Bowl nearly 20 years ago.

The Lions? They go into Sunday’s wild-card game at Stafford’s hometown team with just one postseason victory in the Super Bowl era after Stafford lost to New Orleans in his only try three years ago.

“I feel like I have been in the middle of it right now so I’m not too worried about it,’’ said Stafford, who grew up in the Dallas area. “I’m just trying to win every game if I can.

You know you have to deal with all that kind of stuff and had some success and some years I’d like to have back, too. It’s an ongoing process.’’

“Coach Process’’ — that’s what Jason Garrett is called sometimes because of his affinity for the word — led the Cowboys (12-4) to the NFC East title after three straight 8-8 seasons ended with a loss that kept them out of the playoffs and fueled questions about his job security that are

Romo was the league’s most efficient quarterback with a boost from NFL rushing leader DeMarco Murray, who gained 1,845 yards behind a stout offensive line rebuilt through three first-round picks in the past four drafts — tackle Tyron Smith, center

Travis Frederick and guard Zack Martin.

Apparently knowing he had more help, Romo predicted in training camp that his best years were ahead of him despite back surgery that ended his 2013 season a game early.

And his message didn’t change after another back in-

jury kept him out of one game this year.

“I think more than anything it’s just about playing the right way and being the best version of yourself and figuring out how to create that,’’ said Romo, who is 1-3 in the playoffs after beating Philadelphia and losing to Minnesota during the 2009

season. “We’ve done a really good job being very efficient and explosive in the pass game and we’ll continue hopefully to do that.’’

Things to consider as the Lions (11-5) for go for their first playoff win since beating the Cowboys 38-6 during the 1991 season.

Dalton, Luck need deep playoff runs on resumes

BY MICHAEL MAROT The Associated Press

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton has led the Bengals to three straight seasons of double-digit wins, but has yet to guide his team to a playoff victory. He will try to change that today in an AFC wild-card matchup in Indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS — Andrew Luck and Andy Dalton have similar achievements listed on their resumes — and similar glaring holes.

Each made the Pro Bowl as a rookie. Each has three straight seasons with double-digit wins.

Neither has missed the playoffs, and both understand their legacies will be determined by postseason successes and failures.

Today, the two young quarterbacks get another chance to fill in some of those gaps when the Colts and Bengals meet in a wild-card round game.

“I don’t think just getting to the playoffs has ever been good enough in this building,’’ Luck said this week.

The Colts’ franchise quarterback learned his lesson the hard way.

After directing one of the greatest one-season turnarounds in NFL history in 2012, Luck came up short against eventual Super Bowl champion Baltimore in the first round of the playoffs.

we made during the offseason,” said Rivera, referring to personnel changes, including the release of popular wide receiver Steve Smith.

The Cardinals were hoping that third-string quarterback Ryan Lindley could provide enough offense to sneak past the Panthers, and the Panthers helped by committing three costly turnovers and botching a punt late in the game. However, Lindley ended the contest playing like a third-stringer, completing only 9 of his 16 passed for 45 yards, including two costly fourth quarter interceptions that erased any chance of an Arizona victory.

The Panthers teased the energetic sold-out crowd in the early going by jumping to an early 10-0 lead. On their first

the second-biggest comeback in postseason history, Luck spent the offseason pondering how to reduce turnovers. He blamed himself for throwing three interceptions that helped put Indy in a 28-point deficit against Kansas City, and then threw four more picks the next week in a 43-22 loss at New England.

Now Luck is eager to prove two-time AFC South champion Indianapolis (11-5) is ready to take another big step.

Dalton’s postseason problems are just as obvious.

In three playoff games, all losses, he’s thrown one touchdown pass, six interceptions and accumulated a passer rating of 56.2. Another defeat would put Dalton in a tie with Warren Moon for most consecutive opening-round playoff losses by a quarterback.

History is not on the Bengals’ side, either. Cincinnati (10-5-1) is 0-6 in road playoff games, has lost seven straight in Indy and hasn’t won in the playoffs since January 1991.

If Dalton ends that misery, he might finally silence the critics.

A 14-yard completion from Lindley to wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, which would prove to be Lindley’s longest completion of the game, gave Arizona a first down and goal from the 1. Lindley then tossed a touchdown pass to Darren Fells to pull the Cardinals to within 10-7 early in the second quarter.

Later in the quarter, the Panthers presented the Cardinals with another gift when Newton’s pass intended for Philly Brown was intercepted

by Antonio Cromartie and returned 50 yards to the Carolina 17. Four plays later, Kerywnn Williams scored on a 1-yard run to put Arizona, which was 11-5 in the regular season, ahead 14-10.

The Panthers pulled within 14-13 in the closing seconds of the half when Gano atoned for a missed 39-yard field goal

early in the second quarter by connecting on a 39-yard boot.

Carolina regained the lead late in the third quarter when Fozzy Whitaker scored on a 39-yard screen pass to make it 20-14. Whitaker caught the ball on the right side of the field, then cut back across the grain and got a couple of big blocks downfield that led him into the end zone.

“All I did was following the guys blocking,” said Whitaker. “I knew we needed a play like that to get us going and the crowd back in the game.”

The Panthers got a huge break on the ensuing kickoff when Ted Ginn fumbled the ball on a hit by Melvin White.

White fell on the loose ball at the Arizona 3 and two plays later Newton found fullback Mike Tolbert wide open in the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown pass three plays later to put the Panthers ahead 27-14.

Pianists Susan Zhang and Gregory Hughes will present a concert titled “Classical Piano: Dueling Hands of Susan Zhang and Gregory Hughes” at the Sumter Opera House on Saturday, Jan. 10.

Dueling hands at Opera House Pianists to play classical program

BY IVY MOORE ivy@theitem.com

L

overs of music and especially piano music will have the opportunity to watch and hear the Classical Piano: Dueling Hands of Susan Zhang and Gregory Hughes on Saturday at the Sumter Opera House.

The 7:30 p.m. concert is part of the inaugural Opera House concert series coordinated by City Cultural Director Seth Reimer.

The concert promises to be an exciting way to add to the diversity of the series that has so far brought country, rock ‘n’ roll and jazz music to the venue, as well as Shakespearean drama with Warehouse Theatre’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

Zhang and Hughes are both awardwinning pianists whose chemistry and virtuosity have captivated audiences around the world.

Zhang studied with Dr. Marina Lomazov at the University of South Carolina and was the winner of the 2000 Augusta Symphony Youth Concerto Competition; she made her debut with that orchestra at the age of 12. She has won and placed in many other competitions, both nationally and internationally.

Also a soloist with the South Carolina Philharmonic and the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra, Zhang has performed in numerous venues in North America, Europe and Asia, including the Woodruff Arts Center in Atlanta, Capilla de Musica de las Bernardas in Burgos, Spain, Qingshan District Government Hall in Wuhan,

Susan Zhang is known for her dynamic and virtuosic technique, as is her Jan. 10 partner, Gregory Hughes. They’ll present a program that includes Rachmaninov, Barber and other composers at the Sumter Opera House on that date. Tickets are already available.

China, El Cerrito in Caracas, Venezuela, and the Escuela de Música Mozarteum, also in Caracas.

Zhang has also studied with Antonio Pompa-Baldi, Emanuela Friscioni, Lydia Porro, and Sandra Patton and has worked with many teachers including Robert McDonald, Boris Slutsky and Joseph Rackers.

First prize winner of the 2011 Arthur Fraser International Concerto Competition, Hughes is a native of Los Osos, California, and is currently attending the Juilliard School, where he is pursuing his bachelor of music degree in piano performance under Jerome

Lowenthal. Previously, he studied with Ann Holler, Fabio Parrini and ChihLong Hu. Among Hughes’ competition wins are the MTNA in Tennessee and South Carolina, the 2010 Lee University Piano Competition, the 2011 Bristol Music Club Scholarship Competition and the St. Andrews Arts Council 2012 International Piano Competition. By virtue of his win at the latter competition, Hughes performed with the St. Andrews Festival Orchestra directed by Maestro Lewis Dalvit.

Together, Zhang and Hughes have been praised by audiences and critics

for “their musical dynamism and powerful chemistry.”

On Saturday’s program at the Sumter Opera House will be Sergei Rachmaninov’s Morceaux, a seldom heard set of solo piano pieces that mine the feelings of the composer from elation to his darker moods. Hughes’ and Zhang’s performance will also include American composer Samuel Barber’s Souvenirs and other pieces.

Critics celebrate Zhang and Hughes individually and as a duo; the Free Times praised them for their “astounding musical authority ... (and) well prepared mastery,” indicating that they will “share an evening of classical music that will ignite the imagination.”

Tickets for the 7:30 p.m. concert Classical Piano: Dueling Hands of Susan Zhang and Gregory Hughes are $25 for floor and box seats, $20 for balcony and $10 for students. Visit the website sumteroperahouse.com or call the Sumter Opera House at (803) 436-2616 for tickets or for more information.

N.C. hotel hopes guests go home with rescue dog

BY SUE MANNING The Associated Press ASHEVILLE, N.C. — At this hotel, guests get welcomed with a wagging tail or a warm lick to the face.

A dog will bound out from behind the registration desk, clad in an “Adopt Me” vest, as visitors arrive at the Aloft hotel in downtown Asheville, North Carolina, believed to be the only hotel in the U.S. where guests can adopt the dog that greets them when they check in.

But the hotel doesn’t overwhelm roadweary travelers to this mountain tourist mecca, where people come to tour the nation’s largest home, the Biltmore estate; cast a fly-fishing rod; or hoist a beer in what has been dubbed “Beer City USA.” There’s only one adoptable dog at a time, and it’s always on a leash.

The pooches at the Aloft Asheville Downtown hotel are part of an adoption program run by the hotel and Charlie’s Angels Animal Rescue. The rescue saves the pets from possible euthanasia at area shelters.

“We feel like we are saving lives,” said Christine Kavanagh, Aloft’s director of sales.

Hotel and rescue workers hope the program not only becomes permanent but spreads to some of the chain’s other

locations, too. The Asheville hotel, which also allows guests’ pets to stay for free, opened in 2012 and has not received one complaint about allergies, messes or dueling dogs, Kavanagh said.

The adoptable dogs have space set aside at the registration desk, on the roof, third floor and in certain employee areas. They can’t stay in guest rooms at night but can go with visitors to the restaurant, bar and other spots if they’re on a leash.

“The guests love it. It shows up on guest reviews and consumer surveys,” Kavanagh said.

Caren Ferris of Amherst, Massachusetts, and her husband certainly did.

The couple were staying nearby when they met a 4-year-old terrier mix named Ginger in the hotel bar and cozied up to the pooch sporting an “Adopt Me” vest.

After a visit, “I got up to leave and told her goodbye. She sat up, looked me in the eye and kissed me on the lips. So I called the shelter, thinking maybe we should adopt the dog,” Ferris said.

She and her husband filled out the adoption papers, paid $175 in fees and waited to be approved before they were able to take Ginger home to meet their other dogs.

Charlie’s Angels has tough adoption standards, including a home visit. If a potential owner is from another state,

The restrictions haven’t stopped 14 dogs from finding homes since the program started in July, said Kim Smith, president of Charlie’s Angels. The rescue’s placements have doubled since the hotel started stationing the dogs.

Jan Trantham and her husband, from Atlanta, adopted a 2-year-old Shih Tzu named Jackson. They fell in love with him when they checked in, she said.

“Every time we went somewhere, one

of us would say, ‘Let’s go back to the hotel and see Jackson.’ l couldn’t stop thinking about this dog,” Trantham said.

It’s also a wonderful way for the dogs — and the guests — to socialize, Kavanagh said.

“We have a little playpen by the front desk. At times, there’s a crowd around the pen because the dog is a conversation starter,” Kavanagh said. “Our hotel draws people together so they can mix and mingle and maybe adopt a dog.”

Divorcee’s dating plan hits snag right out of the gate DEAR ABBY — After a year of separation and divorce, I have decided to dip into the online dating world at 45.

My plan was Dear Abby to carefully ABIGAIL select three to VAN BUREN five men over the next few months and just date, without diving into a relationship or into bed.

To my surprise, the first man I met, “Darren,” is a great guy. He treats me wonderfully, is respectful, makes me laugh, and I love spending time with him. Now I’m no longer interested in meeting anyone else.

But I am forcing myself to stick to “the plan.”

Darren is aware of this. He respects my decision, but says he’ll convince me to choose him. Am I making a mistake by continuing to date others? I have real feelings for Darren and feel awkward about continuing with my plan. I think I should guard my heart. Perhaps dating others will help

me take things more slowly.

Any thoughts?

Cautiously optimistic DEAR OPTIMISTIC — If you hadn’t met someone as compatible as Darren, I would say full speed ahead with your plan. But if you feel awkward going out with others, then you shouldn’t be doing it.

This is not to say you should rush into anything with Darren. It takes time to really get to know someone. Take the time because in the early months of a relationship, both parties are in the “selling” phase. You can always decide to go back to Plan A. DEAR ABBY — My sister “Diane” lives across the country and is an active alcoholic. I have been sober for 13 years, with the exception of a relapse in 2012. I have an 11-year-old daughter.

In addition to the alcoholism, Diane is in an abusive marriage. I have seen it firsthand when I visited her. During each of these visits we have argued, she and her husband have fought, and Diana has drunk heavily.

I have decided to not expose

my daughter to my sister’s drama. It was sad and stressful for me when I witnessed it.

Diana is hurt and now refuses to speak to me. Did I make the right decision?

Safe and Sober in Oakland DEAR SAFE & SOBER — I’m sorry your sister is hurt, but as a parent, it’s up to you to decide what you want your impressionable daughter to see. That you don’t want her to be exposed to your alcohol-addled sister interacting with her abusive husband seems like a sensible choice to me. Yes, you made the right decision, and you should stick with it.

DEAR ABBY — I recently started dating a woman I have been friends with for a few years.

She’s smart, funny, has many wonderful qualities, and I’m starting to fall in love with her.

She’s attractive — except for one thing that could easily be fixed. I don’t know if I’m being shallow, so if that’s the case, please tell me. She has a bit of a mustache.

Is there a way I can tactfully ask her to remove it without

hurting her feelings? Or should I just be grateful I found someone who wants to be with me and keep quiet?

Tactfully challenged DEAR CHALLENGED — If you and this lady have been friends for

years, you should know each other well enough to level with each other. Because the mustache is “distracting,” ask her why she has never done anything about it. However, if she opts to keep it, you’ll have to love her just as she is.

In 1891 plans were well underway for constructing a new hotel in Sumter. It was to be called The Claremont; however, within a year interest had waned. The Claremont Hotel shown here was built years later.

Conclusion: Sumter makes changes at turn of 20th century T

oday’s Reflections concludes its look at the city and county of Sumter as it approached the 20th century through an article written by Sumter historian Thomas Stubbs in the 1950s.

The report is being reprinted with a degree of editing due to its length.

In addition to local amusements, the people of Sammy Way Sumter had REFLECTIONS their interests pointed elsewhere. First, there was Columbia’s “Centennial,” a pageant originating with and promoted by McDonald Furman of Privateer, Sumter County.

Furman was given the title “Father of the Centennial” and spent a whole week at the Jerome Hotel, Columbia, as an honored guest on this festive occasion. There, too, plans for the Columbian Exposition or World’s Fair in Chicago, for the summer of 1892 were being publicized. As early as 1889, Thomas A. Edison was quoted as saying that by means of his invention, which he called “Far-sighted Made” – a forerunner of television – “he hopes to increase the range of vision by hundreds of miles, so that, for example, a man in New York could see the features of his friend in Boston with as much ease as he could see a performance on the stage,” and that this would be completed before the World’s Fair to be held in 1892.

Locally the Rev. C.C. Brown was urging his fellow citizens to go to the exposition, and he offered them his assistance in arranging a party for them, in advising as to train schedules, etc., and this was more than a year before the fair was to commence. By the fall of 1891 a committee of 50 persons from South Carolina was named to lay statewide plans for the state’s representation and exhibits at this fair. Sumter’s representatives on this committee were Altamont Moses, Abe Ryttenberg and R.M. Wallace.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT Sumter had achieved phenomenal growth and had made many improvements in recent years, but there was still much to be done. Electric arc lights had been recently installed for the streets (1890).

Under the title “Hello, Central Connect 15 with 26” was described the activities of R.O. Purdy, Albertus S. Brown and Dr. S.C. Baker to provide telephone service for Sumter. Early in January, 1891, it was said that 30 subscribers to this service had already been secured.

Signs of growth and change were voted in almost every

The school opened in 1892. issue. Among other needed local facilities which were now given impetus were a new hotel and a public park.

An editorial appeared in February titled “Sumter Sighs For a Hotel.” Soon plans were well under way. The overall estimate of bonds to be offered at public subscription was $50,000, of which $30,000 was to be for the hotel proper.

A long list of subscribers’ names was published. A mass meeting was held at which W.M. Graham was elected chairman and Abe Ryttenberg, secretary. The hotel got so far as to have a name selected for it. It was to be called “The Claremont,” but within a year, we note interest in these plans waning.

In May of 1891, the matter of a public park for Sumter was discussed. William H. Ingraham was then negotiating for the purchase of “the most beautiful suburban home near the city.” Adjacent to this was considerable acreage, and he offered 30 acres of this for a park to City Council. This consisted of “a grove of live oaks, and a beautiful natural basin. It could be easily approached, it was said, from Calhoun, Republican (later Hampton Avenue) or Liberty streets. Ingraham appeared before City Council and urged the members to accept his proposal, and council appointed a committee to investigate. By the fall, council had accepted Ingraham’s proposal of a gift of 30 acres for a park action, it was said, which was “Generally approved, even though it was conditioned upon the city itself building a hard driveway from Main Street to this property.” This project failed, too, for some unexplained reason.

St. Anne Catholic Church rectory and the church circa 1915.

A group of some of the first students to sign up for a public education in Sumter assemble on the front steps of the Andrew Jackson Moses House on Washington Street in 1889.

The site in question is said to have been that now occupied by the County Fair Grounds and lands adjacent there to the west and south, perhaps embracing First Mill.

The editor voiced strong opposition, however, to another proposed public project. A movement was on foot, in 1891, to see the old courthouse and grounds, and to build a new and much larger court house and jail. Opposition to this project was suc-

cessful for the time being, although one taxpayer favored it, provided the sale produced as much as $30,000, a sum thought sufficient to buy another site as well as to build the larger court house and jail.

Despite the fact that some proposed projects were frustrated and others were postponed, a good bit of building was going on or was about to be commenced. In addition to the building of the Graded

School, progress was being made in the building of a Masonic Temple. A.W. Todd, of Augusta, Ga., had been chosen as architect. It was said that this building will not be exceeded in design by either the new hotel or the Graded School. Mrs. Todd was also architect for the handsome new homes of Horace Harby on Church Street and of C.T. Mason on Main Street, then being erected. Other buildings were also then being planned for Sumter. “Mr. Neill O’Donnell,” it was said, “will have his large house (the residence of the late William Bojcer on Main Street) next door to Levi Brothers, moved to a lot on Liberty Street below the Baptist Church. This important home will be followed by one still more important. O’Donnell is thinking of building a block of brick store on the space made vacant by the removal of his residence.” Then too it was said that Mr. Isaac Schwartz was acting for Mrs. Schwartz and her sister, Miss Lena Solomons, in the building of two brick stores on the corner of Main and Republican streets, the corner store having already been leased to Edward E. Rembert. ...

Sumter’s problems of sewage and an adequate supply of water were real ones. There too, the condition of the principal streets in bad weather was deplorable. Nor were there any paved sidewalks.

The principal streets of the city, especially Main, Liberty and Republican, were said to be a “disgrace to the city.”

“Where there are not pools of muddy, slimy water, the mud is without exaggeration, very nearly, and in some places, quite a half foot deep.

The editor attacked this on more than one occasion. He recommended the use of Belgian blocks as suitable paving material, the estimated cost of which was $5,000 a mile.

He strongly advocated a bond issue of $100,000 for this and other needed local improvements — a place that was to be authorized a little later on.

Then too, some young vandals cut the light wires leaving the town in utter darkness for several hours.

There were numerous marriages noted in 1891 among several of Sumter’s prominent families. Many of these events often took place in the homes of the participants and were frequently followed with sumptuous meals of every variety of cakes, fruits, nuts candies, etc.

“We will always remember this occasion (to speak to the citizens of Sumter) with pleasure.

Department of Education is holding up Sumter School District 2’s $1.6 million in December operating funds until the district turns in its 1988-89 financial statement, a department official said Tuesday. But the district remains solvent in the interim, according to finance director Dave Tolson, who said the fiscal ease reflects the district’s improved financial condition and some extra income that helped to bridge the gap.

Jerry Smith of New Knoxville rivets an Airstream travel trailer at the Airstream factory in Jackson Center, Ohio, on Oct. 22. High-demand Airstream trailers are still being built by hand at the same western Ohio site that has produced them for the past 60 years.

Company’s flying high Airstream can’t keep up with demand for iconic travel trailers

BY MITCH STACY The Associated Press

J

ACKSON CENTER, Ohio — Bob Wheeler still gets the question sometimes when people find out he runs the company that builds those shiny aluminum campers: “Airstreams? They still make those?”

Not only are the retro-looking “silver bullet” travel trailers still being built by hand at the same western Ohio site that has produced them for 60 years, but the company also can’t roll them out of there fast enough to meet the demand these days.

The instantly recognizable silver bubble design — inspired by airplane fuselages — hasn’t been tweaked much since the first Airstreams took to the open road in the 1930s on the way to becoming an American icon.

The polished campers have cameoed Russell Hites, left, of Belle Center, and Charlie Presne, of Uniopolis, work on an Airin Hollywood movies and even quarstream travel trailer in October. antined the Apollo 11 astronauts ly have less storage space and require return to levels seen before the econwhen they got back from the moon. more maintenance to keep the outomy tanked.

‘It’s not like the white box trailer that’s going to fall apart in 10 years. We bought this knowing we can give it to our son, and maybe he can give it to his children.’

THE AIRSTREAM LEGACY ENDURES WAY BACK WHEN Wally Byam built the first Airstream trailer as a tent contraption on a Model T chassis, eventually replacing the tent with a teardrop-shaped permanent shelter. The riveted aluminum, aviation-inspired design emerged in the 1930s and hasn’t been tweaked greatly since then. Since 1952, they’ve been built at a factory in Jackson Center, Ohio, north of Dayton.

Byam would spend much of the rest of his life leading Airstream caravans around the world.

LOTS OF FANS Airstream owners are enthusiastic, loyal and love to hang out with one another. Organized chapters of the owners association — called the Wally Byam Caravan Club International — put together rallies around the world and stay in touch through active message boards and social media. An annual camping event at the Ohio factory sponsored by Airstream Life magazine draws 120 to 150 units. It’s called “Alumapalooza.”

NASA’S FAVORITE The first stop for Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins when they got back from the moon in 1969 was a modified Airstream trailer. They were quarantined until doctors cleared them from any harmful germs they might have brought back from space.

President Richard Nixon congratulated the astronauts from the window. A drivable Airstream RV shuttled astronauts to the launch pad for years.

ON THE BIG SCREEN Airstream trailers have been a part of American culture for decades, so naturally they’ve rolled through dozens of Hollywood movies and TV shows, ranging from “Raising Arizona” and “Independence Day” to “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.” Matthew McConaughey spent a month on the road in his Airstream promoting his 2005 movie “Sahara.” He told Architectural Digest his home on wheels was “a beautiful piece of art.”

AIRSTREAM RANCH An RV dealer named Frank Bates buried eight Airstream trailers halfway in the ground alongside Interstate 4 just outside of Tampa, Florida, in 2007.

Known as Airstream Ranch, the “sculpture” has survived despite a legal battle over local government efforts to get rid of it. Some people call it art.

Some people call it an eyesore. It’s definitely become a tourist attraction.

THE SUMTER ITEM

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

Deer season’s over, but hunting calendar’s still full Y

ou can stick a fork in 2014; it’s done, and along with it the 2014 deer season. I’m sort of sad to see it go. I got a couple of does for the freezer and had a great time making memories for when I’m too old and gray to go hunting.

It has a finality about it; yesterday I was deer hunting, Earle today I’m not.

It will be a Woodward long 8 1/2 AFIELD & months until AFLOAT it rolls around again on Aug. 15.

But hey, let’s not despair.

There is a lot left to do before we start hanging deer stands again.

I have been watching a herd of squirrels from a ground blind for the last several months, and they have all but run me crazy trying to keep up with what’s making the

rustling in the leaves. I think I need to take a measure of revenge and cut back the population just a bit.

I firmly believe I can sit in that blind with a .22 rifle and fill a 5-gallon bucket full of bushy tails before I go home. I could probably do that this week. I think I will!

After using the blind for a squirrel hunt, it will be time to take it down. I love hunting from a ground blind, but the one real drawback is that they don’t stand up too well to year-round weather. The one I’m using as a squirrel blind is pieced together after several of the support rods snapped when weighed down by the ice storm last February. They are also susceptible to sun rot, so leaving them up for the entire year just advances the process. I’ll put them back up about the first of August.

Tree stands have also got to be taken down.

Duck season will be in for most of January, so I might as well give that a try. I’m not very confident in taking a high har-

vest, but I have duck hunted at least once a year since I was 15 years old — that’s 45 consecutive years — and I don’t see any reason to stop now.

I remember the days when a limit of mallards was more common than not and a wood duck was not held in very high regard. Nowadays, a wood duck is sought after because there is very little else at which to shoot.

Before I did a little work around the house on New Year’s Day, I went out into my workshop and began to prepare the boat for a duck hunt.

I pulled the decoys off of the shelf, dusted them off, placed them in the center of the boat, covered them with a piece of burlap and then added my camouflage netting on top of that. I stored the poles that are the basis of the blind, made sure the life jackets were in place, topped off the battery and put the Q-Beam in the storage compartment.

Now all I need to do is figure out where I’m going to go, out into the lake or up into the

swamp.

Perhaps there is a goose hunt in our future. My son Robert tells me that his father-in-law has a few coming to his pond and that’s always a good time.

We may get a shot at a goose, we may not, but the fellowship is always great.

We will be switching gears a bit in the next week or so; believe it or not, fishing is about here.

If we can get the right water level, the crappie should be biting in the swamp, and I do love to catch a mess of crappie They will migrate to more shallow water in the lake fairly soon, and by the end of February and early March will be close to structure to spawn.

Some of the biggest bass of the year may be available as well, and not necessarily where you may think. I have caught many a bass in water less than four feet deep in the winter months.

One morning in early February, David McCabe, my neighbor at the lake house,

and I went to the back of the creek and wore fish out on spinnerbaits around the buttonwood bushes in about three feet of water.

The next year, I cast Shad Raps to piers the last week of January and had one of the best days I’ve ever had. I slipped into my coveralls, pulled a knit cap over my ears and proceeded to catch my 10bass limit. That’s what the limit was back in those days; 3-5 pounds of fish in a little under 90 minutes.

Most of them came from about midway of the pier in relatively shallow water. The theory is that on sunny days the sun heats the shallow water and the fish move in to warm up. It must be right because after a good, sunny day I’ve caught a lot of fish where conventional wisdom says they ain’t.

The thing is, that while deer season may be over, there’s no need to be despondent. Trust me, there’s something else to do; you just may have to look for it.

FISHING REPORT

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The South Carolina Cotton Museum is located in Bishopville, and its director, Janson Cox, said the story of cotton’s rise is similar to the story of the United States.

Cotton might not be king, but it’s still vital to state

BY JEFFREY COLLINS The Associated Press BISHOPVILLE — A museum in Bishopville helps people remember when cotton was king in South Carolina. But the museum’s director is quick to point out the crop hasn’t lost all its clout.

South Carolina Cotton Museum Director Janson Cox keeps in an office a framed list of the state’s top cash crops from 2012.

Cotton lands fourth on the list, just below greenhouse plans, chickens and turkeys. It beat out corn, soybeans, wheat and peaches.

Tobacco, which once knocked cotton from its throne, doesn’t even show up on the list.

“They keep coming up for new uses for cotton,” said Cox, as he held a rapidly biodegradable form of packaging made from cotton that could replace Styrofoam. “So I guess farmers will just have to keep growing it.”

Tobacco isn’t the only crop whose time has come and gone in South Carolina. Most elementary school students know indigo was the state’s

first big cash crop during colonial times, followed by rice.

But Joseph West, the ship captain sent to help colonize the state, also picked up some cotton seeds, sugar cane and olive trees from Barbados with orders to see what crops grew best in the new land.

“Fares well,” West noted in his journal.

Cotton’s first boom came after Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin, allowing easier separation of the seeds from the crop in the 1790s. Demand skyrocketed. Farmers developed a strain that could grow away from the coast. Cotton quickly became the most important crop to this largely agricultural state.

“The story of cotton itself is as interesting as the stories about its place in American history,” Cox said.

That includes cotton’s role in the Civil War. Thanks to cotton, U.S. Census data ranked South Carolina third in wealth among the states on the eve of the war.

With most young men fighting, cotton produc-

tion fell 96 percent during the war. And since then, South Carolina has consistently been in the bottom 10 in per capita income in the U.S. The state’s fortunes were tied to cotton long after the war. In the 1880s, some cotton farmers went from the richest men in the state after boom years with good weather to bust in just a few years when drought returned.

In 1910, only Texas and Georgia, both much larger in area, grew more cotton than South Carolina.

Immediately after World War I, cotton was more than $3 a pound. But the market for the crop crashed, and while the rest of the country enjoyed the Roaring ‘20s, South Carolina got an extended taste of the Great Depression to come as prices fell to nearly 50 cents a pound.

Still, South Carolina farmers kept growing cotton. So invested was U.S. Sen. Ellison Smith that he was nicknamed Cotton Ed Smith and became known for saying: “Cotton is king and white is supreme.”

Santee Cooper System Striped Bass: Fair. Although still not frequent, reports of striper being caught are picking up.

Catfish: Good. Catfish are deep but feeding extremely well in the lower lake; gizzard shad drifted or anchored are very effective.

Lake Murray Striped Bass: Fair to good. Most striper are in the upper end of the lake from the Gap up.

Fish are generally grouped up in little pockets of fish, and most striper are being found from the bank out to 40 feet of water. Fish can be in the shallows or out in the middle of the channel, and so anglers are advised to look for birds in order to locate fish. Free lining with live herring or big minnows (both are equally effective right now) is the best technique, and some anglers are also having success pulling planer boards.

Shellcracker: Fair to good. Fish worms on the bottom from the bank out to 10 feet of water.

Finding shells is a good indicator that fish are in the area, but the real key is to keep moving every 5-10 minutes until fish are located.

Catfish: Fair to good. Bait and catfish are scattered across a wide depth range from about 20-50 feet. Some fish are traveling in and out of big feeder creeks, some are moving up and down the main river channel, and others are scattered across flats holding schools of baitfish. Cut herring is currently the best bait choice.

Lake Wateree Crappie: Very good. A lot of crappie in the 1 1 1/2 pound range are being caught right now, and most fish are concentrated on the upper end of the lake from Wateree Creek on up. Fish are in the channel, and most are being found about a foot off the bottom in 18-24 feet of water. The best technique is tight-lining very slow with both jigs and minnows. A few fish are still in brush, and these fish are at the bottom of the brush.

Largemouth Bass: Fair. The bass bite has slowed with winter setting in. Concentrate on rocky points and banks. Crankbaits, shakeyhead worms, and jig and trailers slowly worked are producing the best. Concentrate in 6-12 feet of water; however try shallower on warming trends and deeper during a cold trend.

Lake Greenwood Catfish: Good. Drifting cut herring, shad and shrimp in 15 to 25 feet of water near the Reedy and Saluda River channels is working well for channel cats.

Crappie: Fair. Crappie are still feeding pretty well. The best fishing has come around bridge pilings in 12-15 feet of water using minnows.

Largemouth Bass: Slow. Some fish are being caught on shakey head worms fished on the bottom in 8-15 feet of water, and there is still sporadic schooling activity with a mix of bass, small stripers and white perch feeding on top.

Lake Monticello Catfish: Good. Anchoring on main lake humps and points with steep ledges is most effective for putting big blue catfish in the boat; being patient and staying in one spot for a while can really pay off. Cut gizzard shad, big threadfin shad, and white perch seem to be the best baits.

Lake Russell Black Bass: Good. The best pattern for catching good numbers of spotted bass has been fishing drop shot rigs, spoons or minnows around schools of bait in 28-30 feet of water, particularly around brush.

White perch: Good. Big schools of white perch can also be found around schools of baitfish, and whereas a few weeks ago the perch were significantly deeper than the largemouth they are now mixed together in the 28-30 foot range. Perch will eat spoons

and minnows.

Striped bass: Fair. Birds will provide indications of where the striper can be found, but the key to targeting striper is still to cover a lot of water with big free-lined baits. The best areas to target are the lower end from the mid-lake to the dam and up Beaverdam and the Rocky River.

Lake Thurmond Crappie: Good. Good-sized crappie are being caught on minnows fished about 15 feet down over 30 feet of water around standing trees. The mouths of creeks are productive areas, and Raysville has been a good place to fish.

Striped and Hybrid Bass: Good. Striper can be caught on planer boards pulled down the middle of the channel in about 20 feet of water. Both herring and gizzard shad make good baits, and they can also be fished on free lines or with a 1/8 ounce sinker. Around Amity, up to the pumping station, and the South Carolina Little River have all produced fish.

Lake Wylie Catfish: Fair to good. Try drifting cut white perch or cut shad on the bottom in or near the main channel.

Largemouth Bass: Slow to fair. Up and down air temperatures have kept a strong winter bite from turning on, and for now the fishing is still pretty tough. Schools of bait are getting bigger and tighter, but fish are not yet ganged up with them. Fish can still be caught on Rattle Trap-type baits, square billed crankbaits, and even Alabama rigs. The grub bite should get good once water temperatures drop on, and as shad begin to die off when water temperatures hit about 50 degrees the jerkbait bite will get better and better.

Lake Jocassee Trout: Slow. Fish are in 50 to 70 feet of water, and the best catches are coming up the rivers trolling minnows and spoons. Black Bass: Slow. Few anglers are pursuing black bass right now, but the best action is coming fishing from the bank to 30 feet out using shaky-head rigs.

Lake Keowee Largemouth and Spotted Bass: Good to very good. Bass fishing remains very strong on Lake Keowee, and that catching 20-plus fish on a trip is fairly common as late fall/ winter-time schools get tighter. Anglers willing to use live bait can catch even more fish. Bass can still be found chasing bait and schooling on the surface, although schooling back in the creeks has slowed down.

Schooling fish related to the main channel can be caught on small topwater plugs.

Lake Hartwell Black Bass: Fair. Bass are starting to move a little deeper but water temperatures still have not dropped significantly and it won’t be until there is a string of below-freezing nights that water temperatures will dive and the pattern will change substantially. Overall fish are still highly related to bait and most fish are holding offshore. Fishing in 20-40 feet of water with Scrounger heads, Blade Runners and drop shot rigs can catch fish. Catfish: Fair.

A few channel catfish can still be caught on herring, worms and even stinkbait, but overall the channel bite has significantly slowed.

Striped and Hybrid Bass: Slow. Striper fishing has improved, and fish are moving a lot. They can be found up any of the major creeks and out in the creek mouths. Free lining live herring or gizzard shad is the best way to locate them. Crappie: Slow to fair. Not a lot of people are targeting crappie right now, but they can be found around brush 14-15 feet down in 25 or so feet of water. Both minnows and jigs will catch fish.

Twisted Musical Comedy Comes to Life

By Candace Havens FYI Television

Sunday, January 4 - 10, 2015

www.theitem.com

Joshua Sasse is a triple threat who can sing, dance and act as “Galavant,” premiering Sunday at 8 p.m. on ABC.

From the first note, viewers will know they are in for something a little different with “Galavant,” premiering Sunday at 8 p.m. on ABC. Executive producer Dan Fogelman (“Tangled,” “Crazy Stupid Love”) has combined efforts with lyricist Glenn Slater (“Tangled”) and composer Alan Menken (“The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin”) to create a fun and quirky comedy that delightfully takes the road less traveled. Think “Princess Bride” with music.

The short series is snarky and filled with wonderful performances. In addition to working with Fogelman on “Tangled,” Menken and Slater had done an Emmy-nominated episode of “Neighbors” with the producer. “Everyone kept saying, you guys should find a way to do a TV show with music,” Fogelman says. “I couldn’t really wrap my head around how that would work, a show with original music every week.

“And then I went home and realized I had this script,” he continues.

“It was kind of a fairy tale turned on its head that I’d written half of. I went away for the weekend and put in placements for songs and how it would work as a musical. Then I sent it to Alan and Glenn and they were in. And then I brought it to ABC, and thankfully, they were crazy enough to say yes.”

Galavant (Joshua Sasse, “Rogue”) is a dashing hero who is on a quest to save his ladylove, Madalena (Mallory Jansen, “Baby Daddy”), from the evil King Richard (Timothy

Omundson, “Psych”). Only things are not what they seem. It’s a fractured fairy tale, so viewers can expect for the series to take some odd and often hilarious turns.

Creating a musical comedy with original songs every week is no easy undertaking. “No one has really done a half-hour comedy where the songs are a part of the story,” Fogelman says. “It’s a complicated process, so we had to figure it out. I have a great team of writers whom I’ve worked with before. Before we began, I sent a note to the writers and Alan and Glenn and asked for ideas. Some of them were terrible.

Some of them were inspired. I took all that, and some of my own ideas, and created a series bible for the first season of the show. Then Alan and Glenn flew out to Los Angeles and sat with the writers for a couple of days and we mapped out the first season of the show.

“Alan and Glenn are incredibly quick,” says Fogelman. “A couple of weeks ago, when we were finishing production, we had one episode that I felt was a little light musically.

I felt like we needed one more song.

I was back in L.A. editing and I called the producers in England and asked if they would be willing to stay another day. I called Alan and Glenn and told them what I needed.

That night they sent me the song and it’s one of our best. Everyone showed up that next morning – the director, choreographer and cast – and they made it happen. Josh learned the song and the dance that day, and they recorded it. It’s a very talented group.”

Casting the show was an interesting process for Fogelman and his team. While there are many talented actors, they can’t always sing and dance. “We wanted people who could really sing,” says Fogelman. “We didn’t want that fake lip-syncing stuff. Most of what is used on the show is actually sung live as people are dancing and riding horses. Our cast can sing and dance, and they are funny. And they’re pretty.

“With all six of our main characters, I knew when the right person walked in the door,” Fogelman says of the casting process. “In my head, I thought that the show would be better if the faces in these main roles weren’t so recognizable. I mean, you know these actors.

They all have great careers, but they work in more character stuff.

I wanted fresh faces for the most part. Tim is an incredibly popular actor, but he’s not necessarily getting mobbed when he walks down the street.

“When Josh walked in the office, I thought it was a joke,” Fogelman continues. “Here I am doing this big musical series. I’ve got Alan and Glenn and we’re doing 40 original songs. We’re going to England to shoot it in real castles. But the whole thing is dependent on this guy Galavant. If I don’t have him, I don’t have a show. Never in history has someone as handsome as Josh been that funny, and then he sang.

Alan was sitting there saying, ‘Wow, he can really sing.’ We were just really lucky when it came to the casting.”
