Walk this way Local greenway to get face-lift, growth from renewed tax Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series of stories examining the proposed projects for a renewed penny sales tax, which Sumter County voters will be asked to approve in November. Money raised by the tax will go toward a series of building, infrastructure and other projects throughout the county.

Why drive somewhere when you can take a nice scenic walk, getting some muchneeded exercise at the same time as you explore your surroundings? That’s the hope behind the proposed expansion of the Shot Pouch Greenway, one of the projects that would be funded by a renewed penny sales tax. If the tax goes forward, $4 million would go to lengthen the walking trail that

Sumter flag football team wins big at Special Olympics BY MATT WALSH matt@theitem.com (803) 774-1227 When Sumter High School special needs student Dinell Anthony first came to his foster mom, his self-esteem was so low that he was afraid to speak. “He didn’t trust a lot of people,” said Dinell’s foster mom, Dinah Shaw. “When he couldn’t do something, he

would get frustrated, and I would put my arms around him and say, ‘It’s okay. We can do this,’ and I think that encouragement helped him build his self-esteem.” He might have too much self-esteem now, she said. On Thursday, Dinell caught the game-winning pass to lead South Carolina’s Special Olympic Flag Football Team, the Assassins, of Sumter, to a

Trying to move past, comprehend the unexplainable First responders discuss processing of suicides, followup for threats, attempts

When emergency workers respond to a suicide threat or attempt, they treat the person as fast as possible, both medically and psychologically. “If we respond to a scene and the person is injured from their attempt, we treat them,” said Kathy Hall of Sumter County EMS. “If they’ve got cuts, we get to work on bandaging and treating the wounds. If they’ve taken pills, we start ap-

plying IV drips and other emergency treatment.” If EMS workers are lucky, they arrive before any attempt is made. In such instances, law enforcement and EMS interview the subject to help assess their needs. “If we get there and they’re still expressing a desire to kill themselves, we take them to the hospital,” Hall said. “Numerous paths develop from that point.” “We don’t need consent from family to take them in for treatment,” Dailey said. “If they made the call and still act like they’re determined to do something drastic when we ar-

rive, we can lawfully take them at that point.” Once that person gets to the hospital, he or she is administered a psychological evaluation by an on-duty psychiatric nurse to determine their state of mind, which is followed by further investigation from a physician. Some spend days or weeks in the hospital. Others might be released within hours if the physician determines he or she is stable enough to be released. “If it seems to be a longlasting issue, the patient is referred to the mental health

Sumter program gets federal money to help addicts BY JADE REYNOLDS jade@theitem.com (803) 774-1250 When someone is wrestling with addiction, it’s not uncommon for her to find herself homeless. “This is my 11th facility, not counting prison and jail,” said Kelli Weaver, who five months ago was living out of her car. “It’s great for my type, a hard case. I’ve been an IV drug user and been arrested for cooking meth, but I’m no stranger to pain pills, heroin and opiates. To see light in my life is amazing, to know every day they are saving my life and keeping me out of prison.” Now she is part of the Any Length Recovery program, a private nonprofit based in Sumter. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s announcement Thursday that six Continuum of Care organizations in South Carolina will receive $442,897 in grant money will prove beneficial to Any Length’s mission to help people in circumstances similar to Weaver’s. Eastern Carolina Homelessness Organization — a coalition that helps the homeless in 12 counties including Sumter, Clarendon and Lee — received some of the funding and has awarded three grants totaling more than $197,000 to the Sumter rehab. These renewed grants will support 70 beds, said Joel Nichols, administrative director of Any Length. The money will also go toward providing job skills training, life skills training, transportation and case management to the individuals with the debilitating addictions and/or who are considered chronically homeless. “HUD has a special focus on the chronically homeless,” said Joey Smoak, president of ECHO and resident administrator at Any Length. “Chronically homeless is defined as an episode of homelessness lasting one year or longer or four times in three years.” Nichols is also on the ECHO board. “The ultimate goal is for them to become self-sustaining and eventually exit the program to rent an apartment or a home,” Nichols said. “It gets them back into the workforce. They can contribute to the economy, to life again. They

become productive members of society.” That’s what Tyler Faulk is looking forward to after about a year and a half of sobriety. He is now in the transitional housing part of the program. “This place has saved my life,” he said. “I was hooked on prescription painkillers, and for four years they ruined my life. To change my life I had to fall flat on my face. I remember waking up in a ditch in my car with a state trooper shining his light in. I broke down in front of that cop.” “It was the best thing that could have happened to him,” his mom said. He had been about to be evicted from where he was staying. Bryan Senatore, former heroine user and Xanex abuser, came to Any Length about three months ago. “The place I was living was charging me $160 flat a month, and I couldn’t pay,” he said. “When I first came, it was just a place to live so I was not on the streets. Now I’ve seen people who have been here come back, and they’re content with their life without drugs. It gives you hope. If you’re trying to get your life together, this is the place.” Like Weaver, Chris Armour said his addictions took on many forms. “Anything I could grab,” he said. “I was floating from place to place. Sometimes I would stay at a friend’s mom’s house. This place is the bee’s knees. Finally I can learn about the disease I have. I never knew how to deal with life, to deal with my depression.” He’s now been at Any Length about two months. A 23-year-old who wished to remain anonymous said he’d been “couch surfing” four months before he came to the Sumter rehab. “I was into opiates, hallucinogens, anything really,” he said. “I was a jack of all trades. I liked to party. “You come to a point in your life where you’re tired, and you know it’s death or jail. This place has given me the opportunity to change, to find a purpose instead of being the black hole that consumes everything. My worse day here is better than my best day out there.” For more information on Any Length Recovery, visit anylength.org.

Man charged in alleged home repair scam The recent arrest of a 59-year-old Sumter man has law enforcement warning local residents about an alleged home repair scam. The Sumter Police Department charged Jimmie Lee Wells of 722 S. Main St. with felony breach of trust with fraudulent intent on Wednesday after, they say, he convinced people to pay him for work and building materials that were never delivered. Reports indicate Wells was WELLS charged with attempting similar schemes in Sumter last year and in Manning in April, as well. Detectives determined the suspect was

not a licensed contractor nor did he have a city or county business license to operate a business. Wells, officers said, solicited business by handing out fliers for “MJ’s Home Improvements” in various parking lots and shopping centers, prompting police to recommend potential customers to check licensing credentials through local and state agencies, request references and gather multiple estimates before hiring someone. Residents who have paid for work that was never done or was done insufficiently are asked to call the Sumter Police Department at (803) 436-2700 to make a report or to be referred to the appropriate agency.

Don’t be surprised to see educator bagging groceries BY RAYTEVIA EVANS revans@theitem.com (803) 774-1214 Editor’s Note: This story is the final story of a four-part series about four Sumter School District teachers who take on different jobs in their free time and during the summer vacation. In the past few days, The Sumter Item has published stories on teachers working as an organic farmer and beekeeper, at an upholstery shop and at a local rehab center. Check Saturday’s paper for a story on career specialist Gayle Jennings who works at the Sumter Health and Rehab Center when she’s not helping Lakewood High School students figure out a career path.

licia Hammett is not the type of person to spend time doing nothing. She likes to be busy and is even known to hold down more than one job. Twelve years ago, Hammett started working at Piggly Wiggly on Guignard Parkway while attending the University of South Carolina Sumter. And nine years ago, she became a part of Sumter School District. She is now a career specialist at Lakewood High School and an assistant manager at Piggly Wiggly. While attending school and working at the store, Hammett said she quickly figured out that she was really good with numbers — something her supervisors noticed as well. Later, she became an assistant manager, a position she still holds at the store.

With the school district, Hammett works with students at Lakewood, Crestwood and Sumter high schools and often runs into some of her students when they apply for summer and/or weekend jobs at the grocery store. “As a career specialist, I direct students to their desired career paths. We don’t want them graduating and not having a plan,” Hammett said. “I love working with kids, and I’m a problem solver. So if students are unsure about what they want to do, we use different career assessments and career-related materials to help.” Hammett has been with Lakewood High School for four years, and some of her skills as a career specialist transfer in managing staff — some of whom are Sumter School District students — at the grocery store. Her position with Piggly Wiggly gives her another opportunity to reach students and even enforce some values and rules that they can transfer from the halls of their schools to the workforce. “It’s basically the same because I work with some of my students and have to remind them, like in school, to have IDs or name badges and the proper clothing because you never know who’s watching you,” she said. Because of her position with Piggly Wiggly and her years of experience with the school district, the students often confide in her and have a different level of respect for her. They consult her when they’re interested in getting a job with the grocery store or elsewhere in the Sumter area.

POLICE BLOTTER CHARGES Robert Darnell Jones, 37, of 10 Dixie Drive, was arrested on Friday and charged with third-degree assault and battery. According to reports, Jones reportedly groped the private area of a 27-year-old male victim while he was sleeping at a home in the 1200 block of Winkles Street recently. Curtis McFadden, 62, of 921 Kingmen St., was arrested at 5:33 p.m. on Wednesday and charged with simple assault and possession of drug paraphernalia. According to reports, officers and firefighters were processing the scene of a fire on Kingmen Street on Wednesday when an officer observed McFadden approach the front door of the building. A fireman present stopped McFadden and told him it wasn’t safe to enter the home. Shortly after, an argument reportedly developed between the two men, and McFadden tried to push past the fire-

fighter. Once again, the firefighter warned McFadden, who then reportedly said, “I can change that,” and reached for a 6-inch knife in his back pocket. Officers then detained McFadden, and during a search of his person they found a 4-inch metal crack pipe in his pocket. He was arrested and taken to Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center. Derek Damon Martin, 24, of 665 Duffie Drive in Wedgefield, was arrested at 4:10 p.m. Wednesday and charged with not wearing a seatbelt; driving under suspension, fourth offense; and being a habitual traffic offender. According to reports, a neighborhood empowerment team was patrolling North Highland Avenue when an officer accompanying them saw a silver 2007 Dodge Charger turn onto Highland Avenue from Jackson Street. The officer had a clear view of the driver, who was reportedly not wearing a seatbelt. The

Alicia Hammett is an assistant manager at Piggly Wiggly on Guignard Parkway. She has worked with Store Manager Luther Jamison for many years. As assistant manager, Hammett often manages some of the Sumter School District high school students whom she assists and encourages to choose a desired career path through her job as a career specialist at Lakewood High School. “They’re using the same skills we teach them at school when they’re applying for jobs or colleges,” Hammett said. “They come to me, and I remind them that they’ll have to pull up their pants and look presentable, some of the same things I tell them in school.” At the store, Hammett works with about five or six high school students who attend one of the three high schools in the district.

first offense; driving under suspension, second offense; failure to stop for blue lights; and having an open container. According to reports, an officer conducting a safety checkpoint at the intersection of West Oakland Avenue and Artillery Drive with a neighborhood empowerment team attempted to stop a white 1997 Nissan Sentra, but the vehicle refused to stop. The officer then followed Barkley, who reportedly tried to evade officers, making a right onto Barnett Street followed by a left onto Liberty Street. He then turned left onto Brooks Street, then took a right onto Camellia

Street, where he ran the stop sign and struck a tree. Barkley kept going until he drove through a nearby fence and hit a backyard fence. Once his vehicle was stopped, he attempted to run but was apprehended shortly thereafter. As the officer administered field sobriety tests, Barkley said he fled because he didn’t want a driving under the influence charge. Barkley then reportedly failed sobriety tests and blew a .10-reading during a breathalyzer test. He also had a can of open beer in the vehicle. He was arrested and taken to Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center.

U.S. resumes screening of migrant children sponsors SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — The federal government has resumed checking the fingerprints of people other than parents who step forward to care for migrant children detained at the border amid concern by immigrant advocates that skipping the screening could put children at risk. Kenneth Wolfe, a spokesman for the Administration for Children and Families, said the agency overseeing the shelter program for migrant youth has gone back to a previous policy of only exempting parents and legal guardians from having their fingerprints taken. No child was harmed by the more lax fingerprint policy, Wolfe said. The number of unaccompanied Central American children apprehended at the border with Mexico has surged in recent weeks and could reach 90,000 this year. To speed children through shelters and free up bed space, officials had stopped running fingerprint checks against criminal databases for

ROLL CALL WASHINGTON (AP) — Here’s how area members of Congress voted on major issues in the week ending June 20.

HOUSE 2015 MILITARY APPROPRIATIONS Voting 340 for and 73 against, the House on June 20 passed a $570.4 billion military appropriations bill for fiscal 2015, including $79.4 billion for war in Afghanistan and other theaters. The bill (HR 4870) funds a 1.8 percent military pay raise and bars prisoner transfers from the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, while providing $39 million for suicideprevention programs; $350 million for a joint missile-defense program with Israel; $5.8 billion for procuring 38 Joint Strike Fighter aircraft and $220 million to develop a new rocket engine to end U.S. reliance on the Russian-built RD-180. The bill also fully funds the military’s new post of “sexual victims counsel” to help service personnel deal with legal issues after they have been sexually assaulted.

parents and other sponsors who offered to care for them, immigrant advocates said. Until last year, advocates said officials had checked the fingerprints of all sponsors, including parents. “Any time you are reducing the requirements, that is a concern,” said Kimi Jackson, director of the South Texas Pro Bono Asylum Representation Project, which offers know-yourrights presentations to children in detention. “There are people who will sponsor kids out in order to use them for things that are not in their best interest.” Immigrant advocates say rising gang violence and threats have driven the children to leave their countries and trek across Mexico to reach the United States. Since last month, the Obama administration has opened temporary shelters on military bases to help care for the children until they can be reunited with a sponsor, preferably a parent or close adult relative.

The vote occurred as President Obama announced he will deploy as many as 300 U.S. military advisers, but not combat forces, to help the Iraqi government defeat a growing insurgency.

With so many food choices today, learning how to read food labels and what to look for when you are reading them are key to health improvement. Nutrition labels are packed with information which can be overwhelming and even confusing. Consuming boxes of foods promoting health claims will not improve your health.

Minnesota scored first, but missed the extra point and held the 6-0 lead at halftime. Early in the second half, the Assassins tied the game with a reverse to partner A’Dron Harmon, but Minnesota quickly rallied to take back the lead, making the score 12-6. The game was a defensive struggle until the Assassins put the ball in the hands of one of their biggest weapons, Alashawn Richardson. Alashawn is a special needs student who plays football for Lakewood High School, and he is the fastest player the Assassins have, Raabe said. With about 4 minutes to play and the entire length of the field to go, Coach Raabe told Alashawn to take a pitch pass and run it up the sideline.

which should be natural foods. “I now have the knowledge and tools to know what foods I need to fuel my body with that will support my goals,” Prince said. “This information was the medicine I needed. I am so thankful for the education and support. It has inspired me and empowered me to become healthier. I am more alert, my self-esteem has improved and some of my medication has been reduced. I feel great, my energy levels are up, and my edema has significantly reduced. For the first time, I am able to see the veins on my feet,” said Othealor.

‘The resilience of the guys was awesome. They made me look like I knew what I was doing.’ LOGAN RAABE Sumter Assassins head coach Alashawn headed towards the sideline, but swindled his defender with a deceptive jolt and buttered his way back to the middle of the field and straight through the end zone. “I saw an open lane and just ran,” Alashawn said, grinning at Coach Raabe. “I know what coach said, but sometimes the player just knows best.” The game was tied, and the Assassins lined up for the extra point. This time, Dinell was in the wrong spot at the

right time and caught a scoring pass from partner Ty Ruffington. “It’s hilarious,” Raabe said. “We basically won the game because Alashawn went where he wasn’t supposed to, and Dinell went where he wasn’t supposed to.” With one minute left and the Assassins leading by one point, Minnesota got the ball back. The sidelines were in a state of pandemonium and through the Chaos, Raabe was yelling at the defense. “They do not score!” he screamed. “This is your sole purpose, They do not score!” Minnesota threw up a pass and it was intercepted by Assassins Partner Coker Scott. The players poured water on the coaches in celebration — just like champions. “I’ll never forget this; on the way to getting our medals, Dinnell came up behind me, wrapped his arms around me and said, ‘we did it coach,’” Raabe said. “He was smiling the whole time.”

COMMENTARY

here? Hasn’t he been eliminated?) Michael Dukakis was among the missing, a fact loudly noted by Gore during his visit on Thursday. Reagan was in good form. Thanks to the teleprompters, he delivered his Wednesday luncheon speech skillfully, and even took some questions from the editors before departing behind a phalanx of burly Secret Service men. The president was ticked off about former Press Secretary Larry Speake’s book, “Speaking Out,” in which he claimed that he made up some quotes for Reagan Hubert D. after the Geneva Osteen Jr. Summit with Mikhail Gorbachev. “I have no affection for these kissand-tell books,” the president snapped. He characterized Speakes’s disclosure as “fiction.” What really got Reagan’s goat, however, was another Speakes revelation that the president seldom read newspapers, preferring instead to scan through staff-prepared news summaries. Untrue, huffed the president. “I always start with the comics,” said the chief executive. “Then I read the editorial pages. I read plenty of newspapers — every day.” That made me feel better. Later on that day a group of knowl-

ASHINGTON – This is the city. This is your city. That’s what a friend of mine who lives here said to me after I arrived Tuesday for an editor’s convention. “Welcome to your city,” he said. “This is your capital that your tax dollars keep going. Enjoy.” OK, I’ve enjoyed it so far, even though the cabbies all have accents and look like card-carrying PLO members. Cabs are a mystery here. I took one over to Georgetown and it cost eight bucks. Coming back it cost six bucks. You figure it out. In spite of the multilingual cabbies, who operate in mysterious ways, Washington is beautiful at this time of the year with the cherry blossoms in bloom and the freshly planted tulips adorning many of the old monuments. Editors from across the nation gather here every year at this time to solemnly (and sometimes hilariously) examine their craft and hear from major newsmakers who eagerly grab the opportunity for exposure. Since this is an election year, we heard from not only the capital Great Communicator himself, Ronald Reagan, but also from two major political candidates: Sen. Albert Gore Jr. and the Rev. Jesse Jackson on the Democratic side, and George Bush and Pat Robertson on the Republican side. (Pat Robertson? What’s he doing

edgeable political consultants and journalists discussed this year’s campaign coverage. Grizzled Baltimore Sun political columnist Jack Germond put it in the proper perspective by voicing this complaint: “This is the most mindless, probably the stupidest campaign anyone’s ever covered. These people (the candidates) are talking nonsense day in and day out. We now have coming up in New York the pivotal primary for the Democratic Party nomination and the major issue is whether there should be a Palestinian state. That is preposterous.” I was able to see and hear two live candidates to find out for myself if Germond was speaking the truth. First was Sen. Albert Gore Jr., who argued that he was a different kind of Democrat who wanted to reshape the party and prevent it from going the way of the British Labor Party — always criticizing but not being able to govern. Then, Gore proceeded to criticize his opponent Michael Dukakis over the issue of nuclear war. Gore is going, going, almost gone among the Democratic Party contenders. Tuesday’s New York primary may seal his fate. The next live one was Jesse Jackson, who drew the largest audience of editors and wives — over 1,000 in a cavernous ballroom. Jackson read a ponderous position paper on national security, part of which dealt with arming Third World African countries so they could protect themselves from incur-

sions by South Africa. Jackson was in better form when he took questions from the editors. One asked him about bringing back prayer to the public schools. Replied Jackson: “I submit to you, as long as you teach physics in our schools and have exams on Friday, you will have prayer in the schools.” Speaking of prayer, there was an interesting session on “Cult Televangelism: Life Beyond Jim and Tammy,” and that featured the Rev. Jerry Falwell. Falwell contended that the day of the televangelist superstar is over following the escapades of Jim Bakker and Jimmy Swaggart, and rightly so. Another panelist who appeared with Falwell, Mary Hargrove of the Tulsa, Okla., Tribune, who has covered Oral Roberts, agreed, and added this bit of insight: “I’ve heard the Old Testament’s references to visions, and nowhere do I find any mention of a 1-800 number.” There was more entertainment as the convention moved on. Walter Cronkite and James Reston spoke at a luncheon and Richard Nixon gave us his observations on the world and the next president. Meanwhile, out on the streets of your city, I saw a female biker cut in front of a car and nearly get hit. She angrily pounded the car’s windshield and gestured hypnotically with a single finger to the hapless driver. After all, it was her city, too. Reach Hubert D. Osteen Jr. at hubert@ theitem.com.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR A heartfelt thank you to Sumter County On behalf of our young people, their families and our staff I would like to take this time to extend my heartfelt and deepest appreciation to the Sumter community. Your kindness, love and support in response to my recent appeal for assistance for our Summer Day Camp Program has been remarkable. The children are currently enjoying great experiences just because of you. Over the past year, our Boys & Girls Club has undergone a number of challenging situations. Currently, we faced the possibility that we might not be able to conduct our program this summer and that the children we serve would not benefit from much-needed summer activities. Thank you Sumter — you’ve been wonderful. I am so pleased that so many of you opened your hearts in support, and as a result, we are currently able to provide joyful and educational programs. In closing, I want each and every one who made or is planning to make a donation to realize what a remarkable impact you have made in the life of each child who would not have had the opportunity to participate in such a productive summer. I know that they will remember these particular activities and fascinating places and grow strong and hopeful. The Sumter community and the members of The Salvation Army Boys & Girls Club Advisory Council realize that these efforts do indeed make positive citizens.

A look into stopping a lawless president

ASHINGTON — What philosopher Harvey Mansfield calls “taming the prince” — making executive power compatible with democracy’s abhorrence of arbitrary power — has been a perennial problem of modern politics. It is now more urgent in America than at any time since the Founders, having rebelled against George III’s unfettered exercise of “royal prerogative,” stipulated that presidents “shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Serious as are the policy disagreements roiling Washington, none is as important as the structural distortion threatening constitutional equilibrium. Institutional derangement driven by unchecked presidential aggrandizement did not begin with Barack Obama, but his offenses against the separation of powers have been egregious in quantity, and qualitatively different. Regarding immigration, health care, welfare, education, drug policy and more, Obama has suspended, waived and rewritten laws, including the Affordable Care Act. It required the employer mandate to begin this year. But Obama wrote a new law, giving to certain-sized companies a delay until 2016. Presidents must exercise some discretion in interpreting laws, must have some latitude in allocating finite resources to the enforcement of laws, and must have some freedom to act in the absence of law. Obama, however, has perpetrated more than 40 suspensions of laws. Congress cannot reverse egregious

COMMENTARY executive aggressions such as Obama’s without robust judicial assistance. Courts, understandably fearful of being inundated by lawsuits from small factions of disgruntled legislators, have been wary of granting legislative standing. However, David Rivkin, a Washington lawyer, and Elizabeth Price Foley of Florida International University have studied the case law and believe standing can be obtained conditional on four things: That a majority of one congressional chamber explicitly authorize a lawsuit. That the lawsuit concern the president’s “beGeorge nevolent” suspension Will of an unambiguous provision of law that, by pleasing a private faction, precludes the appearance of a private plaintiff. That Congress cannot administer political self-help by remedying the presidential action by simply repealing the law. And that the injury amounts to nullification of Congress’ power. Hence the significance of a House lawsuit, advocated by Rivkin and Foley, that would unify fractious Republicans while dramatizing Obama’s lawlessness. The House would bring a civil suit seeking a judicial declaration that Obama has violated the separation of powers by effectively nullifying a spe-

cific provision of a law, thereby diminishing Congress’ power. Congress’ authorization, which would affirm an institutional injury rather than some legislators’ personal grievances, satisfies the first criterion. Obama’s actions have fulfilled the rest by nullifying laws and thereby rendering the Constitution’s enumeration of Congress’ power meaningless. The House has passed Rep. Trey Gowdy’s, R.-S.C., bill that would guarantee expedited consideration by federal courts of House resolutions initiating lawsuits to force presidents to “faithfully execute” laws. But as a bill, it is impotent unless and until Republicans control the Senate and a Republican holds the president’s signing pen. Advocates of extreme judicial quietism to punish the supine people leave the people’s representatives no recourse short of the extreme and disproportionate “self help” of impeachment. Surely courts should not encourage this. The cumbersome and divisive blunderbuss process of impeachment should be a rare recourse. Furthermore, it would punish a president for anti-constitutional behavior, but would not correct the injury done to the rule of law. Surely the Republican House majority would authorize a lawsuit. And doing so would establish Speaker John Boehner as the legislature’s vindicator. George Will’s email address is georgewill@washpost.com. © 2014, Washington Post Writers Group

OBITUARIES

THE SUMTER ITEM

KENNETH B. BRADLEY Kenneth Benjamin Bradley, 63, entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, June 18, 2014 at Tuomey Regional Medical Center. Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on March 1, 1951, he was a son of the late Hazel Matthew Bradley and Adele Cleo Bradley. Kenneth attended Wilbur L. Cross Elementary School and graduated from Central High School in Bridgeport, where he was given the nickname of “Boogaloo Bradley” as he weaved and dodged his way as a competitive running back on the varsity football team. Track was another area where Kenny excelled, winning many trophies at Central High for record-winning sprints. After graduating, Kenny worked at General Electric in Connecticut for many years prior to migrating to Washington, D.C., and Detroit, Michigan, where he held positions in the health field. In the 1970s, Kenny relocated to South Carolina, and as a result held numerous positions including at Wilson Hall, Tuomey Regional Medical Center and Sumter County School District 2, working at both Ebenezer Middle School and Crestwood High School in the maintenance department. On November 23, 1980, Kenneth became the proud father of a son, Nathaniel Prayleau (mother, Minnie), who he named after an older brother who died before reaching adulthood. In 1982, Kenny married Alice Prioleau and was blessed with a second son, in 1985, who he named Kenneth Bradley Jr. Kenny had many gifts and talents, including gardening, landscaping, cooking, decorating, spoken word and a special flair for making people laugh. Emulating his father, Kenny had a keen sense of fashion; he was kind-hearted and would give you the shirt off of his back. Surviving are two sons, Nathaniel (Nicole) and Kenneth Jr.; two brothers, Gevon (Bar-

PENNY TAX FROM PAGE A1 currently runs between Broad Street and Guignard Drive, crossing over Miller Road. An expanded greenway would connect more Sumter neighborhoods and parks into the public trail. With penny tax funds, the existing trail could expand northward into Dillon Park, tying in to the existing walking trail there, and lead joggers, bicyclists and other adventurers over 3.5 miles to Swan Lake-Iris Gardens, much of it passing through or close by residential areas. The longer trail will not only create new recreational opportunities for those who live nearby, but proponents hope it could create new opportunities for economic development. “This could not only change the way we look at ourselves and enjoy our community, but the way others look at Sumter,” said Mayor Joe McElveen. Planners have hoped to expand the trail for some time, factoring a longer greenway into their long-term master plan for the city. “This is the type of community amenity multinational companies look for when choosing to locate,” said Planning Director George McGregor. “The trail connects so many of Sumter’s neighborhoods to schools and parks and goods and services.” Incorporating Dillon Park into the greenway would require pedestrians to cross over the busy U.S. 76/378 bypass, which planners hope could be accomplished by directing pedestrians over the Wise Drive bridge. To connect the existing trail with the expansion, new crossings will also have to be installed at Broad and Guignard, and possibly at Liberty Street depending on how the new trail connects to Swan Lake. “We might put in a brick relief, something that will stand out to get traffic to slow down,” McElveen said.

“We want it to be attractive, so we want to add some trees as well as slow traffic signs.” Because the greenway passes through existing neighborhoods, planners hope it will encourage people to walk or bike to locations they would otherwise drive.

YAY OR NAY? RESIDENTS GET OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK ON PROPOSED PROJECTS The public will have their first chance to comment on the proposed penny tax list on Tuesday, when Sumter County Council hosts a public hearing on the list that was publicized last week. The hearing will take place in council chambers at 6 p.m. in the county administration building, 13 E.

stopped to watch a turtle laying eggs and a rabbit eating wildflowers.” Besides the practical benefits, the existence of the trail itself should make the surrounding community a more attractive place to live. “Young people think less in terms of driving and live less far from work,” McElveen said. “Other areas have seen economic development along greenways,” said Claudia Rainey, Sumter senior planner. “Someone might open an ice cream shop or a restaurant along the way, because the people walking expect to see those kinds of things.” While building the trail will require easements on some private property, most of the land is already owned by either the city or the county, which should make construction easier.

LEGION BASEBALL

P-15’s save arms with complete-game wins BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennisb@theitem.com The plan for Sumter P-15’s head coach Curtis Johnson at the NC/SC Challenge in Wilmington, N.C., over the weekend was to spread the innings out between those who don’t throw that much and those who are counted in the American Legion

baseball League III series during the week. It turned out on Saturday Sumter didn’t need any of those experienced arms as Javon Martin and Britton Beatson JOHNSON tossed complete games. Martin pitched the P-15’s to a 10-2 victory over White-

ville, N.C., and Britton Beatson tossed a 2-hit shutout in an 8-0 win over Wilson, N.C., at Buck Hardee Field. “If you would have told me we’d go into these two games today, and we’d get complete games out of both of our pitchers, I wouldn’t have believed you,” said Johnson, whose team improved to 13-3 on the season. “Both Javon and Britton pitched really well

against some good competition. “We told them going into the games that the key was throwing first-pitch strikes, and that’s what they did,” Johnson added. “Both of them pounded the strike zone and got ahead of the hitters.” Martin had pitched only 2 2/3 innings

WORLD CUP

U.S. can’t celebrate just yet Americans can clinch advancement with victory over Portugal BY RONALD BLUM The Associated Press MANAUS, Brazil — Moths and mosquitoes circled when the United States took the field for practice Saturday evening at Arena da Amazonia, a 40,000-seat stadium built in a remote area of the rainforest where the Rio Negro meets the Amazon. And as the Americans stretched in the heat and humidity in their final training session before Sunday’s World Cup game against Portugal, a double rainbow shimmered — said by some to herald an occurrence with great meaning. With a win over the Portuguese and reigning world player of the year Cristiano Ronaldo, the U.S. would accomplish a pair of American firsts: reaching the knockout stage of consecutive World Cups and advancing with a game to spare. “This is now the moment where you can prove yourself. This is the moment where you can step up and play those guys and put them in place,” U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said. “So we want to put Cristiano and his team in his place.” The Americans opened with a 2-1 win over Ghana on Monday behind John Brooks’ 86th-minute goal, while Portugal dropped an embarrassing 4-0 defeat to Germany. When Ghana and Germany tied 2-2 on Saturday, the U.S. was suddenly in position to clinch advancement with a win Sunday. “That’s a good result for us, to know that if we

McMurray takes Sonoma pole BY JENNA FRYER The Associated Press SONOMA, Calif.— Jamie McMurray took the time to help rookie teammate Kyle Larson learn the road course at Sonoma Raceway. The payoff for working together MCMURRAY was two Chip Ganassi Racing cars in the top three of the starting field of Sunday’s race.

McMurray won the pole for Sunday’s race with a track record lap that bumped AJ Allmendinger from the top starting spot, and Larson qualified a surprising third. Allmendinger seemed to have the pole locked down until McMurray turned a lap at 96.350 mph in the final minute of Saturday’s qualifying session. It broke the record of 95.262 mph set by Marcos Ambrose in 2012. “Great lap, I am so excited,” McMurray said. “I thought our car in race trim was real-

ly good, really good on the long runs. We’re not going to change a whole lot, I feel really good about it.” It’s the first pole of the season for McMurray, 10th of his career, and third at Sonoma. McMurray also started from the pole last year but finished 25th. He called the qualifying session stressful under NASCAR’s new knockout format. McMurray was on the verge THE ASSOCIATED PRESS of being eliminated in the first Jamie McMurray (1) won the pole during qualifying for the Toyota/ of the two rounds, but he

KEEPING UP

Burgess paving way for more playing time with North Carolina Central

ast year Keiton Burgess was an occasional starter as a true freshman for the North Carolina Central University football team. The Crestwood High School graduate likely will start more this season. He returns on an offensive line that will have four sophomores and one senior, according to ofBURGESS fensive line coach Jason Onyebuagu. “Keiton had a really good spring,” said Onyebuagu, among the first-year assistants joining new head coach

Jerry Mack. “He had a high ankle sprain. He fought through it. He is one of our better offensive linemen.” Burgess said he made official visits to multiple schools beBarbara fore choosing North Boxleitner Carolina Central. “Everybody was saying you may be redshirted,” he said. “I just came out and worked hard, and it turned out good.” The 6-foot-3-inch, 310-pound Burgess started five of 12 games for 5-7 NCC,

including four consecutive at center. He also has played both guard positions and this spring played mostly left guard. Burgess said he missed two games because of a hip flexor strain suffered while pass blocking. “In high school it was a lot more run blocking,” he said. “I’m just getting used to pass blocking. It’s not that different.” He described the offensive scheme as fast-paced, and Onyebuagu said certain plays call for Burgess to move out in motion to block. “He moves well, which is why he’s able to play center as well,” Onyebuagu said. “He’s doing a lot of hand

combat drills. That’s a 24/7 thing. Keeping the hands up. Keep them tight, and keep them up.” The coach said Burgess missed some spring plays because of the ankle injury, but didn’t miss any practices. “He’s a pretty tough kid,” he said. “He doesn’t want to miss reps. He loves the game.” The team’s schedule again includes South Carolina State and Howard universities, which had locals on their 2013 rosters.

Ryan Moore watches his drive on the second hole during the third round of the Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Conn., on Saturday. Moore has a 1-stroke lead going into today’s final round.

Moore leads at Travelers CROMWELL, Conn.— Ryan Moore is in contention in the Travelers Championship — again. Moore had an eagle and two birdies Saturday in a bogey-free 4-under 66 to take a one-stroke lead over Aaron Baddeley into the final round. The 31-year-old Moore had a 13-under 197 total at TPC River Highlands after opening with rounds of 63 and 68. He won the CIMB Classic in Malaysia at the start of the season in October for his third PGA Tour title. Moore eagled the par-5 sixth, holing a 37foot putt from just off the green, to take the lead early in the afternoon. He has made one eagle in each of his three rounds this week. The eagle on No. 6 was something of a lucky break, Moore says, as his drive was off target. Moore chipped in for a birdie on No. 11 to move to 12 under and break a four-way tie for the lead. No one who has held a share of the thirdround lead has won the Travelers since Stewart Cink in 2008. Baddeley had six birdies and a bogey in a 65. Sergio Garcia, K.J. Choi, Scott Langley and Michael Putnam were tied for third at 11 under. Garcia had a 65, Choi shot 69, Langley 70 and Putnam 69. Garcia has five top-10 finishes in nine PGA Tour starts this season, and won the European Tour’s Qatar Masters in January. Masters champion Bubba Watson was nine strokes back after a 67. He won in 2010 at River Highlands. Former Stanford star Patrick Rodgers, making his pro debut, was 4 under after a 71. Defending champion Ken Duke was 2 under after a 71. DARLINGTON 12 SUMTER 4

TURBEVILLE – The Sumter 7-8 year-old all-star softball team lost to Darlington 14-5 on Saturday in the championship round of the district tournament at the Turbeville Recreation Department fields. Autumn Osteen, Dani Hanley, Hailey Truett, Olivia Kirkman and Autumn Gibbons each had two hits. Osteen, Gibbons and Truett each had a double. Darlington advances to the state tournament in Dillon in July. DARLINGTON 11 CLARENDON COUNTY 1

FLORENCE – The Clarendon County Dixie Angel all-star softball team was eliminated from the district tournament on Friday with an 11-1 loss to Darlington at Freedom Florence.

KELLEYTOWN – Dalzell-Shaw Post 175 dropped to 5-7 in League III with a 14-11 loss to Hartsville on Friday in an American Legion baseball game at Jimmy White Park. The game was tied 11-11 in the eighth inning before Post 53 scored three times in the bottom of the inning. Hartsville improved to 6-5 in league play and holds a 1 ½-game lead over the Jets for third place. Dalzell plays a 3-game series against Sumter this week beginning on Monday at 7 p.m. at Thomas Sumter Academy’s General Field. Hartsville faces Camden in a 3-game set beginning on Monday at 7 at Jimmy White Park. LEHMAN LEADS CHAMPIONS TOUR EVENT

GLENVIEW, Ill. — Tom Lehman opened a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Champions Tour’s Encompass Championship, shooting a bogey-free 6-under 66 before play was suspended because of a thunderstorm. Lehman had a 13-under 131 total at North Shore Country Club, playing the first 36 holes without a bogey. The 55-year-old Minnesotan won the last of his seven senior titles in 2012. Thirty-one players were unable to finish the round. LAWYER: SOLO DID NOT ASSAULT SISTER, NEPHEW

SEATTLE — U.S. women’s soccer star goalkeeper Hope Solo was arrested at a suburban Seattle home early Saturday on suspicion of assaulting her sister and 17-year-old nephew, but her attorney insisted that Solo herself was a victim in the altercation. Officers responded to her sister’s home just before 1 a.m. after receiving a 911 call that a woman at the Kirkland residence was hitting people and that she refused to stop or leave, the Kirkland Police Department said in a news release. They found Solo intoxicated and upset, saw injuries on her nephew and her sister, and arrested her after speaking with those present and determining that she was the primary aggressor, the release said. VIZQUEL INDUCTED INTO INDIANS HALL OF FAME

CLEVELAND— Omar Vizquel hasn’t played for the Indians in a decade, but the passion Cleveland fans feel for him is still strong. The 11-time Gold Glove shortstop was inducted into the Indians’ Hall of Fame before Saturday night’s game against Detroit in front of a sellout crowd. Vizquel, who thrilled fans with his dazzling play at shortstop for the Indians from 1994-2004, was a cornerstone of the teams that won five straight AL Central titles and appeared in the World Series twice.

Yankees honor Martinez with plaque in Park BY MIKE FITZPATRICK The Associated Press NEW YORK — Some of the most memorable moments of Tino Martinez’s life were packed into one hectic day: Dec. 7, 1995. It was his 28th birthday. His daughter, Victoria, was born. And he was traded from the Seattle Mariners to the New York Yankees. Nearly two decades later, Martinez was honored by the Yankees with a plaque to be placed in Monument Park. The slugger’s tenure in pinstripes was celebrated during a 17-minute ceremony on the field before New York hosted the Baltimore Orioles. The former first baseman credited his teammates and said he never dreamed of such a moment back when he was playing. “I’m totally overwhelmed,” Martinez told the sellout crowd of 47,165 from a podium near home plate. “I’m honored and humbled by it, but as I said, it’s really a result of the success of the team I played on.” Martinez’s plaque becomes the 27th located in the elegant area behind the center-field fence at Yankee Stadium, where all-time greats such as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle are feted with monuments, along with late owner George Steinbrenner. A clutch hitter with lefthanded power, Martinez helped the Yankees win four World Series championships and five AL pennants from 1996-2001. He returned for a seventh season with New York in 2005 and finished his Yankees career with a .276 batting average, 192 homers and 739 RBIs. Two of his signature swings were postseason home runs at the previous Yankee Stadium — a goahead grand slam in Game 1 of the 1998 World Series against San Diego, and a tying homer with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning in Game 4 of the 2001 World Series against Arizo-

When he learned the Mariners were planning to trade him after the 1995 season, Martinez told Seattle manager Lou Piniella he would like to go to New York. That meant replacing retiring Yankees captain Don Mattingly at first base, but Martinez took on that unenviable task and soon became a fan favorite himself. “The team rallied around Tino,” former Yankees pitcher David Cone said. “Tino was the key power piece in the middle of that lineup that really set up that run.” The tribute to Martinez was part of a weekend when history is taking center stage at Yankee Stadium. Hall of Fame reliever Rich “Goose” Gossage also will receive a Monument Park plaque today as part of OldTimers’ Day festivities. There will be a similar ceremony for Martinez’s former teammate, Paul O’Neill, on Aug. 9 — and ex-manager Joe Torre will have his No. 6 retired on Aug. 23. Bernie Williams will be recognized next year. Torre, currently Major League Baseball’s executive vice president for baseball operations, will also be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on July 27.

OMAHA, Neb. — You won’t hear any complaints from Virginia about TD Ameritrade Park. It seems this place was built for the Cavaliers, and they’re happy to get to hang around a few more days. Josh Sborz and two relievers turned in another dominating pitching performance Saturday, limiting Mississippi to six singles in a 4-1 victory that put Virginia in the College World Series finals. The Cavaliers have allowed two earned runs in 33 innings in winning their three CWS games for an 0.55 ERA. The CWS record for lowest ERA in a series, in a minimum four games, is 0.60 by California in 1957. Virginia (52-14), in the CWS for the third time, will go to the championship round against Vanderbilt or Texas looking for its first national championship in baseball. The Rebels (48-21) lost to Virginia for a second time in the CWS, ending their first trip to Omaha since 1972. Virginia, which had been batting .091 in the CWS with runners in scoring position, took a 3-1 lead in the fourth after loading the bases against Chris Ellis (10-3). Robbie Coman drove Ellis’ 1-0 pitch into right field for two runs, and another came home on Branden Cogswell’s squeeze bunt. Joe McCarthy, who came to bat in the seventh 1 for 12 in the CWS, delivered an insurance run with a double deep into right center. Sborz (6-4) threw 12 pitches on Friday before a heavy thunderstorm forced suspension of the game in the second inning. He was on the mound when play resumed and worked through the fifth inning. Artie Lewicki took over to start the sixth, and closer Nick Howard worked the ninth for his 20th save. The Cavaliers stayed close after falling behind 1-0 thanks to some gritty work by Sborz in the third. Ole Miss loaded the bases on a single and two walks, but the threat ended when Sborz got Will Allen to line out to third.

Lewicki has pitched seven shutout innings while appearing in all three of the Cavaliers’ College World Series games. Including two other appearances in the NCAA tournament, he has given up no earned runs in 17 1-3 innings. Lewicki’s big senior season has come after he was limited to a total of two innings last year after having Tommy John surgery following the 2012 season. From Wyckoff, New Jersey, Lewicki started nine games this season and has come out of the bullpen in six while working a total of 62 2-3 innings. His three innings of one-hit relief in the Cavaliers’ 4-1 win over Mississippi on Saturday lowered his season ERA to 1.44. With three wins and one save, Lewicki (8-1) has factored into four of the Cavaliers’ eight NCAA tournament games. The eighth-round pick, who mixes a fastball in the mid-90s with an effective slider, said he had no problem moving to the bullpen.

He said the biggest difference is that he has more time to prepare for a start. SPRING’S THE SEASON

College baseball leaders say they don’t foresee moving the sport’s traditional spring season into the summer. Minnesota coach John Anderson in 2012 suggested that the Big Ten and other northern schools, unable to practice and play outdoors early in the season, break away from the NCAA model and play their own season in the summer. West Virginia coach Randy Mazey in May said it would help northern schools competitively if the NCAA season started after spring break and ended before the fall semester. American Baseball Coaches Association executive director Dave Keilitz said such a drastic change would be a hard sell. He said he remembers how difficult it was a few years ago to come to an agreement to get the season moved back just two weeks. From wire reports

Murray has new challenges ahead at Wimbledon BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press LONDON — Imagine what the reception will be like for Andy Murray on Monday when he first strides onto the green grass of Centre Court at Wimbledon. A year ago, Murray became the first British man since Fred Perry in 1936 to win the singles title at a tournament the locals refer to simply as “The Championships,” ending a nation’s long wait and sparking talk of a knighthood. This year, Murray gets the defending champion’s honor of playing the fortnight’s first match on the most famous tennis court in the world. Seems safe to say that 15,000 or so of his closest friends will greet him with a fullthroated roar. “As the time gets nearer, and, you know, I get ready to play the first match on Monday, I’ll definitely ... be excited about it,” Murray said. “I will be nervous. It (is) an experience; something I have never experienced before. Players have talked about it in the past, that it’s a great experience. But it can also be a nerve-racking one.” Murray had a slow start this season, coming off back surgery, and he hasn’t reached a final since Wimbledon 50 weeks ago. But he showed he’s on the way back to peak form by reaching the semifinals at the French Open. Performing that well on

I think it will give me a lot of positive energy,” Murray said. “I’m glad I’m back playing to a level that was able to get me through to

Federer, Nadal eager to put ‘13 finish behind BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press LONDON — Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal — and sometimes both — appeared in all 10 Wimbledon finals from 2003-12, combining to claim nine of those titles. Neither made it that far in 2013. Not even close. Federer lost his second match at the All England Club. Nadal exited in the first round, a year after bowing out in the second. With play at Wimbledon FEDERER starting Monday, Federer and Nadal are eager to return to the heights they once reached with regularity at NADAL the grass-court Grand Slam tournament. They sound certain that they are prepared to fare better than 12 months ago — and, as might be expected from a seventime champion, Federer came right out and called himself “a contender.” “I feel like, yeah, if things click here, I should be able to win the tournament,” Federer said Saturday. “I feel I have a very good chance again this year. I hope to utilize my fitness, the amount of matches I’ve played this year,” he added. “So I’m really coming in with a much better feeling.” Federer tuned up for Wimbledon, where he is seeded fourth, by winning a title on grass at Halle, Germany, last weekend. That showing gave Federer all the assurance he needed that his game is in prime form at the moment, especially on the slick surface he dominated for a decade. Last season, Federer explained, there were “certain things I wanted to do, but I couldn’t figure out or couldn’t do it.” “This year,” he continued, “I feel all the options are there. Return, serve, serve and volley, come in, my

backhand — everything is working to my liking. For that reason, I feel I’m a bit more relaxed mentally, because I know it is there. I clearly want to do better than last year, there’s no doubt about it.” So does the second-seeded Nadal, of course. He reached five Wimbledon finals and earned a pair of trophies, including by edging Federer 9-7 in the fifth set in 2008. They met in three consecutive title matches at the All England Club from 2006-08, and could meet in the semifinals this year. First things first, though. Nadal has a test in the first round against big-hitting Martin Klizan, then could face Lukas Rosol, the man who stunned the Spaniard in 2012’s second round. The third round could bring a challenge from tough server Ivo Karlovic. For now, Nadal is most pleased with the state of his left knee, which acted up during his 7-6 (4), 7-6 (8), 6-4 loss in 2013 to 135th-ranked Steve Darcis, saying it “hurts less this year than last year.” That’s allowed Nadal to put in longer hours than usual on the practice courts this week, a key as the nine-time French Open champion transitions from clay to grass, on which he has lost three matches in a row. A year ago at Wimbledon, a 6-7 (5), 7-6 (5), 7-5, 7-6 (5) loss to 116th-ranked Sergiy Stakhovsky ended Federer’s streak of getting at least to the quarterfinals at 36 consecutive major tournaments. It was Federer’s earliest Grand Slam defeat since May 2003. Somber that day, at least Federer can joke about it now. He said that when he ran into Stakhovsky on Friday, they kidded around about how they could only meet in the final this year, because they were drawn into opposite sides of the bracket. “So it’s all good for both of us,” Federer said, then paused before delivering the punch line: “For me, at least.”

the last stage of Slams.” As for how Murray will handle whatever jitters accompany his first trip back to the site of his most significant victory, his peers think he’ll be just fine. “The way he’s got himself back into shape again, I think

he can really believe again. That’s what’s most important now,” said Roger Federer, who won seven of his record 17 major championships at Wimbledon and is coming off a grass title at Halle, Germany. “(Being) defending champion is never an easy thing. But then again, he played so well on grass the last few years. ... I would feel comfortable if I was Andy at this point.” Novak Djokovic, the 2011 champion and runner-up to Murray last year, agreed. “I’m sure that Andy, with all the experience he has playing in the big matches, and especially here in front of his home crowd, understands and knows the way how to handle the pressure and expectation,” Djokovic said. “So I expect him to do well.” The other reigning singles champion, France’s Marion Bartoli, will not try to defend her title, announcing her retirement at 28, less than six weeks after the 2013 final. That actually fits well with the quirky career of Bartoli, who certainly did things her way, down to her two-fisted strokes for forehands, backhands and volleys. While Murray’s baseline game is rather conventional by today’s standards, his coaching decisions have been groundbreaking. After parting in March with Ivan Lendl — whose hiring was followed by those of fellow past greats of the game Stefan Edberg (by Federer) and Boris Becker (by Djokovic) — Murray

picked former women’s No. 1 Amelie Mauresmo as a replacement this month. “All I’m interested in is to be able to help him (reach) his goals,” Mauresmo said. “That’s about it.” Murray, who grew up in Dunblane, Scotland, has made plain that those aims are primarily about winning more Grand Slam trophies. He earned his first at the 2012 U.S. Open, shortly after winning a gold medal at the London Olympics. Those triumphs followed his loss to Federer at Wimbledon that year. In 2013, Murray beat Djokovic in the Wimbledon final to end the 77-year drought. Scotland’s vote in September about whether to break away from Britain — Murray has steadfastly avoided weighing in — will be a popular topic of conversation around London this summer, and with England’s early elimination from the World Cup, the attention on “Our Andy” at Wimbledon figures to be as strong as ever. “Anytime you taste what it feels like to win it once, you obviously want to win it again. So there’s an element of pressure you put on yourself, for starters, because you sort of want to see what that feels like at least one more time,” said ESPN analyst John McEnroe, who won Wimbledon three times. “From that standpoint, he’s going to be feeling pressure. Clearly now once people know he can do it, they’re going to think he should do it again.”

Germany draws 2-2 with Ghana at World Cup FORTALEZA, Brazil — Miroslav Klose rescued a point for Germany, and equaled the World Cup scoring record in the process. Germany was held to an entertaining 2-2 draw by Ghana on Saturday and needed Klose’s second-half equalizer to avoid another second-game letdown that has plagued the team in recent tournaments. Klose now has 15 career World Cup goals, equaling the mark set by former Brazil star Ronaldo. He celebrated the goal with his trademark summersault. ARGENTINA 1 IRAN 0

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil — Lionel Messi finally found a way through Iran’s defensive wall with a superb goal in stoppage time to give

Argentina a 1-0 victory on Saturday and a place in the World Cup knockout stages. Iran had defended solidly throughout the game and also took the match to Argentina in the second half, creating several chances to win the Group F match and cause a tournament sensation. But Iran was punished for those missed chances when Messi picked up the ball about 20 yards (meters) out and smacked a shot into the left hand corner. It was a moment of individual brilliance, and showed why Messi has been voted world player of the year no fewer than four times.

A victory over the fourthranked Portuguese would mean the U.S. could then win the group with a tie against Germany next week. Klinsmann, a former star striker and coach for Germany, was so excited to watch the end of Saturday’s game that he ran out of his own news conference after about five minutes, took in the final moments, then returned to answer more questions. “It just confirms what we all knew from the beginning on, that it’s a very, very difficult group,” he said. “It’s a huge opportunity tomorrow here in Manaus, and we will definitely go for it.” The Americans needed a shot in the arm for this

match — up to five inoculations per player, to be precise, for protection against typhoid, yellow fever, tetanus, hepatitis A and influenza after they started training last month in California. Players also were offered medication to prevent malaria, the mosquito-borne infectious disease, but all 23 declined. “It’s a World Cup,” Chris Wondolowski said. “It doesn’t matter what’s going into your body or how hot it will be.” After making the 1,680mile flight from their base in Sao Paulo, the Americans found themselves in typical weather for the first day of winter: The forecast was for 80 degrees (27 Celsius) at the start of the game with high humidity that will make it feel more like 90 (32 Celsius).

The $290 million stadium, in a city with no first-division clubs that is accessible only by airplane and boat, was designed to resemble a native straw basket and filled with orange and yellow seats specially constructed to withstand sunlight just 3 degrees south of the equator. It figures to be filled with thousands of American fans who have made the trek — the streets were filled with people in red, white and blue Saturday. U.S. captain Clint Dempsey will play after his nose was broken against Ghana, and he is unlikely to wear a protective mask. Forward Jozy Altidore, who strained his left hamstring, will miss the game and be replaced by Aron Johannsson, Wondolowski or a fifth midfielder.

SONOMA FROM PAGE B1 bumped Allmendinger as the clock wound down on the final 10-minute session. “I think everybody in the garage area has been stressed out about trying to get that clean lap in qualifying all weekend long,” McMurray said. “This knockout qualifying is just an emotional roller-coaster. There’s a lot of highs and lows with it.” Allmendinger wound up second in a race he believes he can win. He was out of the Sprint Cup Series a year ago because of a failed random NASCAR drug test in 2012, so while the series was racing at Sonoma, Allmendinger was in the Nationwide Series race at Road America. He delivered in the Wisconsin race for his first career victory and found his way back into a full-time ride in Cup. He wasn’t disappointed after McMurray bumped him from the pole, but it eyeing another win. “We were in position to have (the pole), so it could be a lot worse,” Allmendinger said. “It sucks when you are that close, but you know what? Jamie put in a heck of a lap. We’ve got a clean view of the track when we go green and we’re going to have some fun tomorrow. We’ve got a pretty good shot to win this thing.” In a surprise, McMurray’s rookie teammate Kyle Larson was third to give Chip Ganassi Racing two cars in the top three. Larson doesn’t have a ton of road course experience, and the rookie is admittedly still learning how to shift. Larson, who replaced road course specialist Juan Pablo Montoya in the Ganassi entry, seemed surprised by his run. “It would be interesting to see what Juan could have

done today in my car because I don’t feel I’m that good on road courses,” Larson said. “I’ve never raced here before. I really rely on McMurray — I sat in the lounge with him for 15 or 20 minutes and he just went through every corner with me and tried to give me as much information as I needed. Carl Edwards was fourth and followed by Kurt Busch, Kevin Harvick and Ryan Newman. The rest of the top 12 included Brian Vickers, Paul Menard, Joey Logano, Danica Patrick and Casey Mears. Patrick has now advanced into the final round of qualifying five times this season. “We would have liked it to be better, but we’ll take it,” Patrick said. Hendrick Motorsports goes into Sunday’s race looking to extend its five-race winning streak, but its drivers will have to come from deep in the field to make it six straight. Jeff Gordon, the all-time winner at Sonoma with five victories, was the highest-qualifying Hendrick driver at 15th. “We pride ourselves on being good on the road courses, especially here at Sonoma,” Gordon said. “Obviously we will talk to our teammates, and see what they were dealing with as well. Very disappointed to not have any Hendrick cars in the top-12.” Jimmie Johnson, winner of three of the last four races, qualified 22nd. It’s his lowest starting spot at Sonoma since 2007. Failing to advance in the final group of 12 in qualifying were road course favorites Tony Stewart, the only Stewart-Haas Racing driver not to make it into the final group, as well as Ambrose and defending race winner Martin Truex Jr.

Gaughan earns Nationwide win ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (AP) — Brendan Gaughan took the lead after a greenwhite-checkered restart, then held on to win the rainsoaked and wild NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Road America on GAUGHAN Saturday. Gaughan won for the first time in the series, breaking through in his 98th career start. Gaughan noted that he made his fair share of mistakes along the way — pretty much every driver did in challenging driving conditions —and thanked his crew for helping him rally to win. “I booted this race twice, and thank you to these boys right here,” Gaughan said. “They still believed in me.” Alex Tagliani was second, followed by Kevin O’Connell, Chase Elliott and J.J. Yeley as NASCAR drivers got a rare opportunity to race in the

rain. It was a disappointing finish for Tagliani, who led in the closing stages of regulation but ran out of gas after a late caution flag came out. It was the third time in Nationwide history that grooved rain tires have been used in a race; the previous two were in Montreal. NASCAR only uses rain tires on road courses, not on oval tracks. The rain added a tense new dimension to racing at Road America, a four-mile road course where the Nationwide Series already had shown an ability to put on a good show. Tagliani was leading when a caution flag came out with just over a lap left in the race, ensuring the green-whitecheckered finish — NASCAR’s version of overtime, as officials attempt to ensure that the race finishes under green. Then Tagliani’s car came to a sudden stop under caution, as he ran out of gas. That handed the lead to

Gaughan, who had been chasing Tagliani down in the closing laps of regulation. Gaughan then lost the lead to Elliott almost immediately on the restart, and Elliott — the 18-year-old son of NASCAR icon Bill Elliott — suddenly appeared headed to victory. But Gaughan got back around Elliott, retaking the lead with just over a lap to go. Gaughan held off O’Connell for most of the last lap, then withstood a late charge from Tagliani, who refueled his car and nearly charged all the way back to the lead. “It was pretty intense,” Tagliani said. “The wet was tricky, but obviously we were good.” The race started about an hour late, as NASCAR officials waited for a slightly damp track to dry out; the series has grooved rain tires available for racing in the rain, but those tires are designed for full wet conditions.

Road America interested in Cup series race ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (AP) — In its fifth year on the NASCAR Nationwide series schedule, Road America has proved it can put on a pretty good — and, at times, pretty wild — show with stock cars. Now track president George Bruggenthies is trying to land a Sprint Cup series race. “Certainly, every year, we prepare the facility for a Cup series race — more, better barriers, always with that in mind,” Bruggenthies said before Saturday’s Nationwide race. “Will it happen? All I can tell you is, I hope so. But we’re certainly aware that the schedule is the challenge. We think that road racing has good ratings on TV, which is important for the series. So, you know, that’s the boat we’re in.” The possibility of changes to the 2015 schedule has been debated since NBC Sports signed on to broadcast the second half of the NASCAR schedule beginning next season. NASCAR officials have not ruled out changing race dates, but there’s been little talk of adding new venues to the calendar. Still, many people inside the garage wondered aloud at Sonoma Raceway, site of Sunday’s Sprint Cup Series race, if Road America and Iowa Speedway could land on the next schedule. Speculation focused on the two venues replacing races at Pocono Raceway and Dover International Speedway. But Pocono president and CEO Brandon Igdalsky said he’d heard nothing about Pocono losing one of its two races. “That’s ridiculous. Who made that up?” he asked. Still, fans are clamoring for a shakeup to

the schedule, and many want another road course. Could Road America fit the bill? Bruggenthies believes the combination of the track’s scenic setting — a four-mile road course that winds through the tree-lined hills of central Wisconsin, just minutes from high-end resorts and golf courses — plus the good shows Nationwide has put on here, add up to build a strong case for Cup at Road America. “We’ve had four races here and every one of them has been a nail-biter,” Bruggenthies said. “We think that it’s very worthy. The drivers actually like the facility, NASCAR likes the facility, and we’re hopeful. We’ll just keep heading on the same path to prepare and hope something opens up. “Officially, there’s no commitment or anything like that. I think I’ve reiterated that several times. But if you’re ready, things will happen.” While it’s fun to imagine the possibility of Jimmie Johnson, Brad Keselowski and the rest of the Sprint Cup stars going door-todoor at Road America, getting a spot on the schedule is a challenge. Already one of the longest seasons in professional sports, the Sprint Cup series schedule is maxed out at 36 races and two exhibitions — and the vast majority of Cup race dates belong to one of two track ownership conglomerates, the France family-affiliated International Speedway Corp. and a rival company, Speedway Motorsports Inc. It’s hard to imagine either company giving up a race date. Bruggenthies also remains open to bringing Indy cars back to Road America, but acknowledges that there are some roadblocks.

THE SUMTER ITEM

WOMEN’S U.S. OPEN

Wie holds share of lead at U.S. Women’s Open BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press PINEHURST, N.C. — Michelle Wie steadied herself with pars over the last four holes on a wild Saturday in the U.S. Women’s Open, leaving the former teen prodigy from Hawaii one round away from winning her first major. Wie made back-to-back birdies to build a four-shot lead, only to give it all back with drives all over Pinehurst No. 2. She salvaged a 2-over 72 for a share of the lead with Amy Yang, who didn’t make a par until the eighth hole in her roller-coaster round of 68. They were at 2-under 208, the only two players still under par on a Pinehurst No. 2 course that was crispy and brittle. The USGA set the course up relative to what the men faced last Saturday in the U.S. Open — short but tough because of the pin positions. “It’s tough out there,” Wie said. “My

She will be in the penultimate group, though a long shot to become the oldest LPGA major champion by 10 years. “You can think and you can dream all you want,” Inkster said. “But the bottom line is you’ve got to come out and make the shots. And if I’m tied for the lead coming up 18, then maybe I’ll think about it. I’ve got a long way to go. I’m just going to enjoy the moment and hit a few balls and see what happens.” Lexi Thompson, who won the first LPGA major of the year in a finalround duel with Wie, pulled within one shot with a pair of early birdies. It fell apart on two holes. Thompson missed the green to the left on No. 8 — the worst spot at Pinehurst — and her first chip fell down the slope, leading to double bogey. On the next hole, she went long over the green and chose to take relief she really didn’t need from a white line marking the TV tower.

Got happy feet? Dance the night away at 4th Fridays BY IVY MOORE ivym@theitem.com

t’s barely summer, but there’s bound to be plenty of dancing in the street — Main Street — next Friday. In fact, mark your calendar for the fourth Friday of each month through October. Live music in

downtown Sumter returns June 27 with a new name and a new location. The outdoor concerts called 4th Fridays will be held in the park directly across from the Sumter Opera House on Main Street, and Leigh Newman, the city’s growth and development specialist and chairwoman of the promotions committee, said the block of Main between Hampton Avenue and Liberty Street will be closed for the monthly “street parties,” even though the band will be set up on a stage in the green space. “We’re excited about using the park,” Newman said. “It’ll be nice on the grass, rather than on a paved surface, which should make it a little cooler. And people can bring blankets to sit on the soft lawn or they can set up their lawn chairs. The kids will enjoy playing there, too.” Plenty of parking will be available on the west side at the back of the park or behind the Opera House. Newman said the line-up of bands offers a great variety of music. Friday’s band, the first in the series, will feature Danny Woods and the Party Prophets with Cindy Floyd. “The Party Prophets have played in Sumter several times, and they always have a good show and a big crowd,” Newman said. While they’re known for their top

hits in the beach music genre, the band also plays blues, rock, Motown, oldies, pop standards and funk. The other bands’ play lists range from pop, rock, oldies, country, beach and R&B to contemporary. Newman said Todd Touchberry of the Cut Rate Soda Fountain will have hot dogs and barbecue sandwiches, “and we have something new this year — Italian ices and snow cones — plus the usual soft beverages and beer for purchase.” She emphasized that the concert series will be “family friendly, and admission is free.” Newman and Howie Owens, Downtown Sumter Development Manager, said the downtown area is becoming a busy place to be, and they’re pleased that so many people are now coming to Main Street for activities. In just the past few months, Newman noted, downtown has co-sponsored the Sumter Microbrew Festival, (Kentucky) Derby Day, the In the HeART of Town one-day art gallery, the weekly Downtown Farmers Markets and more. Additional events are scheduled and/ or being planned for the future, such as the annual Sip and Stroll wine tasting, and currently, the Sumter Opera House is offering popular recent films

So when he had an opDear Abby portunity to ABIGAIL move to VAN BUREN Houston to be closer to his only brother, he desperately wanted to move. My children are grown and on their own, so no problem there. Although leaving my career, my mother and my children to move so far away was difficult for me, my husband doesn’t have much of a family, so I knew it was important to him. He never had children, and he wanted to be part of his niece’s and nephew’s lives. So we moved. Now we’re treated like we don’t exist! We’re not invited to family events, they never visit us and we’re not included during holidays. These are the people who begged us for the last 13 years to move to Texas. I want to return to New York. He doesn’t want to go. I’m afraid if I insist, I’ll need to move back alone. Should I risk my marriage over it? Homesick of New York DEAR HOMESICK — There is a middle ground between moving back to New York and staying in Texas. One of them is making regular trips to visit your mother, children and friends. Another would be to understand that your husband’s family cannot be your sole source of social activity. You and your husband should join clubs and volunteer your time to some worthy causes. That’s the way people meet each other. Texans are known for their hos-

pitality — so give them a fair chance. But only as a last resort should you sacrifice your marriage. DEAR ABBY — I have been dating “Hank” for five years. He has always been a loner. He has never been married and has no kids. We lived together for four years and our relationship is wonderful other than his “just being him.” He’s kind of self-centered and not very communicative. Hank just learned that his mother is terminally ill. He came home from work, told me to pack and move out, gave me five minutes of his time and then left! I packed some clothes and went. I’m not sure if I should stay away or try to get him to talk this through with me. This is tearing me apart. I know he loves me, but I’m afraid that with what’s going on with his mom, he’s shutting me out because he can’t handle it. I’m the closest person to him, but he is pushing me away. Please give me some advice. Feeling very alone in Maine DEAR VERY ALONE — Whether you should remain involved with Hank depends upon how great your tolerance is for pain. He isn’t shutting you out; he gave you one giant kick in the fanny. He also isn’t “kind of” self-centered; he’s VERY self-centered. If you’re curious about his mother’s health, call and ask from time to time. But do not expect to get back together anytime soon. To have ended the relationship with you the way he did was brutal.

Baby boomers turning 50: Don’t miss your discounts BY KAREN SCHWARTZ Associated Press Writer FORT COLLINS, Colo. — The last of the baby boomers turn 50 this year, and if they want to cry into their beer about getting older, at least they can now buy it at a discount. That’s because the first of the so-called senior discounts kick in at age 50, generally along with an AARP card. Sure, there are savings at some chain restaurants and movie theaters, but like everything else with this generation, the boomers have put their own mark on senior savings. “Some of our discounts would not have existed 10 years ago,” said Lynn Mento, a spokeswoman for the Washington, D.C.-based AARP. Today’s cardholders qualify for 33 percent off membership at Zipcar, an auto-sharing site; can buy three concert tickets at Live Nation and get a fourth for free; get 45 percent off a new membership at Angie’s List, a website that lets people review local businesses; and qualify for 15 percent off on HP computers. Plenty of discounts are available for those who aren’t among the AARP’s 37 million members, though those often don’t kick in until closer to retirement age. For instance, Fred Meyer Senior Discount Days are for those 55 and older, the National Park Service charges just $10 for a lifetime pass for Americans age 62 or older, and Southwest Airlines is one of the few carriers still offering a reduced fare for those 65 and older. To find discounts, the simplest thing to do is ask, said Jim Miller, of Norman, Oklahoma, who has spent the past 13 years writing the syndicated Savvy Senior column. He also recommends the website SeniorDiscounts.com, which lists thousands of memberships and is searchable by location. Don’t stop there, however, as senior discounts aren’t always the cheapest option. Sometimes, other discounts or promotions will offer greater savings. It pays to search the Internet and shop around. “The best advice is for consumers to compare the different available rates based on

Customers enjoy their meals on Wednesday at Hat’s Farmhouse Grill, owned by Mike and Betsy Hatfield, who describe the menu as “country cooking” with breakfast and lunch specials. The restaurant is a culmination of Mike Hatfield’s love of cooking and blogging about food.

Family owned Hat’s Farmhouse Grill opens with country-cooking specials BY CATHERINE FOLEY reporter@theitem.com (803) 774-1295 Hat’s Farmhouse Grill, at 401 Miller Road, is now open and serving breakfast and lunch items. Mike and Betsy Hatfield, the owners, have described the menu as “country cooking” with features such as specialty burgers, a casserole of the day and meat and three specials. Mike Hatfield’s passion for cooking inspired him to open the restaurant. Hatfield discovered a love for experimenting with recipes that reflect the farmhouse atmosphere

after his family relocated to a farm. Starting with his food blog, hatsfarmhousefoodblog.com, Hatfield began posting recipes and discussing the best ways to cook a dish. His brother, who learned to cook while serving in the Army, also contributed to the blog. He soon after took over cooking the Sunday family dinners, which continued to fuel his passion. Last summer, the family decided to pursue opening a restaurant. The couple acquired the building approximately six months ago and began the renovations themselves, which included new wallpaper, painting and gutting the entire back room, all while maintaining full-

time jobs. The family hopes that Hat’s will provide a taste of home-cooked, “grandma-style” food for its customers. On the breakfast menu, the staff recommends Grampy’s Breakfast Bowl, which is an “all-in-one” layered dish with sausage, eggs and cheese. For lunch, Hatfield suggests the Rock’s Bacon Teriyaki Cheeseburger. Named after his son, this burger features a spicy teriyaki sauce. Hat’s Farmhouse Grill is open Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and Sunday from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Lunch begins at 11 a.m.

Your next Venti will cost more Starbucks raising its prices on some drinks, supermarket coffee NEW YORK (AP) — Starbucks is raising prices on some of its drinks by 5 cents to 20 cents starting next week, and customers can also soon expect to pay $1 more for the packaged coffee it sells in supermarkets. The Seattle-based chain also raised prices on some of the drinks sold in its cafés a year ago. The latest hikes don’t seem to be driven purely by the surging bean costs that have pressured other coffee sellers to raise prices, however, because Starbucks has said it already locked in its coffee contracts for the rest of this fiscal year and much of the next. In March, CEO Howard Schultz said during an interview with Fox Business

Some of your favorite Starbucks drinks will be 5 cents to 20 cents more starting next week, and the packaged coffee it sells in supermarkets will soon cost $1 more. that Starbucks had no intentions of raising its prices. “We can manage this, we have over a year’s worth of protection,” Schultz said at the time. “I suspect that

most of our competitors are short, and we are in a much better position than they are.” In an email Friday, Starbucks spokesman Jim Olson noted that many fac-

tors go into pricing decisions, including “competitive dynamics” and the company’s “cost structure,” which he said includes costs for a variety of ingredients, as well as materials, labor and occupancy costs. Starbucks Corp. said the price increases in its cafés will kick in Tuesday and vary depending on the region. Prices for medium and large brewed coffees, which are known as Grande and Venti, respectively, will go up between 10 cents and 15 cents in most U.S. markets, the company said. Certain drinks, such as tall brewed coffees and Frappuccinos, won’t see higher prices in most places, the company said. Tall brewed coffees were among the drinks that were hit by Starbucks’ price hikes a year ago. The $1 price boost on packaged coffees sold in supermarkets and other retail outlets will kick in July 21 and follow J.M. Smucker’s recent decision to raise prices on its coffees, which include Folgers. Starbucks noted that it cut prices in April of last year. It said the packaged coffee sold in its cafés won’t be affected.

A breathtaking day of heat and fishing W

hen I left the office last Thursday afternoon it was hot. Now, I don’t mean it was a warm spring day, I mean it was hot, the kind of hot that takes your breath away and blisters the paint on your car. So exactly why was I Earle planning a Woodward fishing trip on AFIELD & a day like that? AFLOAT Sometimes you just have to go when you can go and since Cuz and I had not been able to get together for some time due to conflicting schedules, and since Thursday was open for both of us, we planned the trip. I picked up 20 pounds of ice on the way home and loaded the cooler full of water. I assumed that on a day like Thursday we were going to need it. Cuz showed up right on time. Upon our arrival, we noticed two things right off the bat: There was another car in the parking area, and the water had dropped about a foot since our last visit. Now another vehicle is not really a problem. There’s plenty of water to go around, but the way things are set up and the narrowness of the water, it is nice to know which way the other party went — upstream or downstream. Fishing behind someone else doesn’t usually produce very well. The other party was nowhere in sight. We had a 50-50 chance of correctly guessing which way the other group went, so we guessed downstream and we turned upstream. I began with a brand new

chartreuse spinner bait and Cuz started with a beetle spin on light tackle. I expected to get hammered right away, but things were a bit slower than they had been; a swirl or two at the spinner bait, but not the aggressive strikes to which I had grown accustomed. About 100 yards from the landing, we hit a straightaway that was open to the sun, and it was like someone turned on a blow torch. The heat was unbearable. Fortunately, it only lasted for about 100 yards itself, and we were back into the shade, which was much, much cooler. We started catching a few fish here and there, but the overall size was a bit smaller than they had been the last two outings. One of my co-workers had expressed a desire for a mess of jackfish, so as we picked up a fish that looked big enough to keep, we dumped it on ice and continued to fish. When we got up to “the lake,” which is a much wider part of the creek, we ran into the other party. No wonder the fishing had been off a bit; we were fishing behind someone else. We exchanged pleasantries and continued on our way. It was about this time that a jackfish slammed my lure and immediately wrapped it around a submerged tree limb. The line also parted, leaving me with nothing but a nub. I could see the lure, which wasn’t but an arm’s length under water and, after all, I’d just bought that lure. I eased up to the limb, took a hard look and could just make out the muzzle of a jackfish still attached to the lure. This was going to be good. Could I remove the lure from the limb, keep from getting my

hand shredded by all those teeth in the fish’s mouth and still hold on to the lure when the fish started shaking? Well, yes, I could. The fish didn’t move at all when I removed the lure from the limb and allowed me to remove the hook without a whole lot of hassle. That was something I’d never done before and may never get a chance to do again. Once in the lake, we began to catch bigger fish and catch them more often. I hooked one jack that came to the surface, shook his head and threw the willow leaf spinner blade from my lure, rendering it worthless until I can find another spinner blade. I tied on a white spinner bait and began to fish again. The white bait did better than the chartreuse; I was kind of surprised by that. Cuz announced that he was into a pretty good fish and, in fact, he was. The jackfish he finally conquered looked like a small musky. I guess it was pushing four pounds, which is big for a jackfish. That started a trend; from that point on, the fish were noticeably larger and stronger. At one point, both of us had large jackfish on the line at the same time, and Cuz dipped the net under both of them. A net full of flopping jackfish. In the swamp, light fades fast in the evening and around 8 we turned toward the truck and worked our way home. It was almost dark when we got back to the landing. We’d had a great day of fishing. We caught about 60 to 70 fish, kept about 15 in the cooler for my buddy at work, and the sweat had soaked us through and through. What else do you want from a day of fishing?

WWW.TRACKINGSHARKS.COM

Chip Michalove, a charter boat captain who specializes in catch and release of large sharks, teamed up with OCEARCH to tag Tiger sharks off the South Carolina coast. Their first Tiger shark — named after Chip’s mother, Mary Michalove — can be tracked live at www.ocearch.org/profile/miss_michalove.

Tiger sharks are making tracks MARY LANDERS The Savannah Morning News SAVANNAH, Georgia — Move over, Mary Lee. Local tiger sharks are upstaging this great white shark, who, like them, frequents the waters around Savannah and has a tracking device that proves it. Miss Michalove, an 11-footer who weighs in at 650 pounds, pinged in eight miles up Brunswick’s Gibson Creek on a recent Sunday, nearly reaching Interstate 95. Al, a 9-foot, 250pound immature male, made a beeline south just off Tybee at the end of May. The nonprofit Ocearch, whose satellite tagging and Internet tracking effort has made celebrities out of Mary Lee and other sharks around the world, turned its attention last month to these tiger sharks in Port Royal Sound. There it teamed up with Chip Michalove, a charter boat captain who knows the sound’s sweet spots, and Bryan Frazier, a shark researcher at the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.

In barely more than a month they’ve already made it halfway to their goal of tagging 10 tiger sharks, reeling them in and cradling them with ropes over the side of Michalove’s catamaran, As they attach the tags, they take tissue samples and examine the sharks with ultrasound. Tiger sharks were targeted for the project because little is known about the Port Royal Sound population, including how many are there, whether they’re year-round residents and where they drop their pups. Tiger sharks, which can exceed 18 feet and 2,000 pounds, grow too big to monitor with the department’s other survey methods such as longlines, Frazier said. Michalove, who owns and operates Outcast Sport Fishing out of Hilton Head, specializes in targeting large sharks, typically for catch and release. He initiated this collaboration when he inquired with Ocearch about getting tags. The nonprofit not only provided that hardware, but also hooked him up with Frazier, a marine biologist.

It’s a “perfect storm of information and data,” Michalove said. Ocearch’s online tracker allows monitoring in near real time on their website at ocearch.org. “They’re providing the tags and the ability to put science in front of people in terms of the global shark tracker,” Frazier said. The smallest tiger shark tagged so far is the juvenile male Al, the 250-pounder who made that trip past Tybee. “Boatside, he wasn’t nice,” Frazier said. “Once secure, he was great. He was very feisty, and he didn’t want to cooperate.” At the other end of the spectrum is Septima. “We estimated her at 1,000 pounds and a little under 13 feet,” Frazier said. “She was an angel to deal with boatside.” People are just starting to tune in to the tiger sharks, Frazier said. “Folks are starting to check it out and be intrigued by it,” he said. “I hope they get as much support and love as some of the white sharks.”

FISHING REPORTS

Santee Cooper System Bream: Good. Captain Steve English reports that bream are up shallow. This is the time to prowl the banks and cast crickets and worms to shallow cover. Largemouth bass: Fair. English reports that a few good fish have been caught on frogs, but bites have been few and far between. Additionally, some fish are holding around cypress trees but you will have to hit a ton of trees to get a bite. Fish are probably out deeper following bait schools where they are more difficult to target. Bass are also gorging on mayflies, particularly in the mornings. Lake Wateree Crappie: Good. Veteran tournament angler Will Hinson reports that fish are being caught across the entire length of the lake. Fish are very wellschooled up on brush in 12-18 feet of water, and early in the day they are holding above the brush. As the sun rises they are moving into the brush. Fish Stalker Jigs in Pearl White, Ugly Green and Robin Egg are all working very well, but minnows will also work. Some fish are being caught around bridges, but overall the bridge bite has been hit-or-miss so far this year. Lake Murray Bream: Very good. Lake World reports that bream fishing is the best thing on the lake, with both shellcracker and bluegill on the beds and feeding. The bigger shellcracker seem to be bedding in about 8 feet of water, and anglers should locate fish casting worms on the bottom. Islands and blow-throughs where clams are washed up on the banks are a good spot. Bluegill can be found shallow around docks and brush and they will take crickets and worms. Catfish: Good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the catfish bite is good, with the caveat that fish are in all stages of the spawn. Not all catfish spawn at the same time and in some areas of the lake fish may be in fullfledged spawning mode and less focused on feeding. In one of those areas it is advisable to move a little way up or down the lake and try to locate feeding pre- or post-spawn fish. The best pattern is anchoring on points and humps and fan-casting to depths of 2-30 feet. Herring, shrimp and dip bait are best for numbers of fish, but throwing out a few pieces of white perch or bream might provoke a bite from a big blue or a flathead. Striped bass: Fair to good. Lake World reports that striper are scattered all over the lake but cut fishing cut bait on long points down at depths of about 40 feet has been productive. Fishing free-lines in the 40-50 foot range has also been productive, and there has also been some activity around the towers at the same depth. Lake Greenwood Catfish: Very good. Captain Simpson reports that the channel catfish bite is very strong and consistent on Lake Greenwood right now, with good numbers of 3-7 pound fish the norm. So far this is the best summer bite in the last couple of years. Anchor on points and humps and fancast to

depths from 2-20 feet of water, and be prepared to move after 30-45 minutes if there is no action. Dip baits and shrimp are working best for numbers of fish, but cut herring, bream and shad are catching lower numbers but a better quality fish. Lake Russell Bream: Good. Guide Wendell Wilson reports that this is the best time of the year to catch decent-sized bream on Lake Russell. Bluegill are bedding in the backs of coves all across the lake. Crickets and worms fished in the backs of coves will catch fish, and bream can also be caught with poppers on a fly rod. The best bet is to pull into coves and cast to the backs without looking first and spooking fish - most coves have fish. Bass: Fair to good. Wilson reports that the best pattern for largemouth is to fish in timber with Texas-rigged worms and lizards. Pick out the cedar trees (which have the thickest limb structure) in about 20-30 feet of water and look for bites as the bait falls to about 15 feet. The other significant pattern for largemouth is to head to the backs of major creeks (such as Beaverdam Creek or the Rocky River) and throw lipless crankbaits in 10-15 feet of water. Spotted bass are ganging up on main lake points, and they can be caught on a Spot Remover rigged with a 4-inch finesse worm in about 15-20 feet of water. Striped bass: Fair to good. Wilson reports that striper are still scattered across the lake, and the proof of that is that in the last week or two Wendell has received reliable reports of fish spooling anglers’ reels in at least three distinct parts of the lake. The fish have been so big anglers could never turn them, which is consistent with Russell’s population of giant striper. Lake Thurmond Striped and Hybrid Bass: Good to very good. Captain William Sasser reports that his boat is catching a ton of 3-5 pound fish right now as well as some bigger ones. The best pattern for numbers has been fishing live herring off points on the lower 4 or 5 miles of the lake at daylight. Downlining in about 30 feet of water has been the most effective way to target these fish. Crappie: Good to very good. Captain Sasser reports fish have moved out of the tributaries and along the main river channel, but they will go into short coves and little creeks near the channel. The best pattern is to fish minnows vertically about 6 feet down around brush in 15 feet of water. Catfish: Good. Captain Sasser reports that right now both channel and flathead catfish can be found spawning in the rocks around the bridges. The best technique is to fish a piece of cut herring on a Carolina rig or a split shot rig, similar to how you would fish a plastic worm, by casting the rig up towards the bank and letting it fall in the rocks as you work it back to the boat. Use your trolling motor to maneuver parallel to the rocks. Early morning is the best time, and a mixed bag of fish including some very nice cats can be caught this way.
