Local officials talk pros, cons of new 911 texting option In recent weeks, news of recent advances in technology that allow cellphones to text information to 911 centers has made headlines around the country, as local governments in 16 states are now using the updated system. In South Carolina, the system is only officially being used by 911 centers in Greenville County and is reportedly in the testing phases for other areas. According to some stories, the benchmark, which has been touted as a major advancement in 911 technology, marks the first step out of the voice-only system that was originally implemented in the 1960s. Those same advocates say the technology comes in handy for the deaf and mute communities, as well as during particularly hairy situations, such as an instance of ongoing domestic violence, when phone calls might not be as easy to perform. While the integration of texting into the 911 system has its applications, some have questioned the overall practicality of texting during an emergency situation. “Law enforcement makes it a priority to stay up to date with the latest technology,” said Sumter Police Chief Russell F. Roark III. “But using it as a primary method raises some concerns. It’s a matter of slowing down response time, and we definitely don’t want to do that.” Shirlene Skipper, the director for 911 in Sumter, isn’t opposed to the new technology but remains an ardent advocate for the original method. “From a 911 voice call, I can get exactly what I need from a caller in 30 to 50 seconds,” she said. “You could give me all the information that I need as an operator in that amount of time — about the same time you’d just be finishing the first text.”

Troy Landry, a star of the History channel’s reality show “Swamp People,” greets Sumterites at the festival on Saturday.

With little more than two weeks to go before polls open in the 2014 primary elections, four men hoping to represent tri-county voters made their case, and drew contrasts with their opponents, in a candidates’ forum on Thursday. One of the state’s longest serving legislators, Rep. Grady Brown, traded barbs with his young challenger Brian Alston, while two others seeking their first elected office, Charlie Jones and Jimmy McCain, sought to convince voters they were each the best choice to serve on Sumter County Council. This week’s forum, hosted by the Sumter branch of the NAACP at the North HOPE Center, brought together all these candidates, giving citizens the chance to ask them questions during what may be the only time they appear in the same venue before the June 10 vote. Everyone at Thursday’s forum is running in the Democratic Party primary. Brown is running for a 16th term

Proponents of the new 911 texting system say the option to send a text message to emergency operators would be beneficial in some scenarios, such as criminal domestic violence.

Penny for Progress brings summer road work BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com (803) 774-1272 Memorial Day is known as the start of summer driving season. But drivers making their way around Sumter this season will have to share the road with construction crews making the next round of Penny for Progress improvements. This year, the holiday is also the beginning of a series of “spot safety” improvements at selected intersections around town, with the end goal of improving traffic flow and commuter safety throughout the region. “This is part of the longrange improvement plan approved back in 2007, looking at some of the most dangerous intersections in need of specific spot improvements,” said Planning Director George McGregor. Work will begin the week after Memorial Day, when workers will close the northbound crossover lane connecting Pocalla Road with South Guignard Drive. Three more intersections are slated to follow, with work continuing on roughly one project per month through September. It’s a quick turnaround for a plan that’s been in the works for years. All the projects were included in the 2035 plan approved by the Sumter Urban Area Transportation Systems (SUATS) committee almost seven years ago, and funded by the Penny for Progress sales tax passed by voters in 2008. After work on the U.S. 15 crossover, the next three intersections are all on Broad Street — at Gion Street near the entrance to Sumter Mall, at Carter Road and at Patriot

Starting the week after Memorial Day, the planned improvements will affect four intersections around town over the course of the summer.

Parkway/Peach Orchard Road. The first project, beginning the week of June 2, will permanently close a lane that requires drivers heading north on Pocalla Road to cross over the southbound lane to reach Guignard Drive. Crossing the other lane can create congestion and the potential for traffic collisions, so workers will fill in the crossover as part of the grass median just in front of the “Welcome to Sumter” sign. “The danger is really in the crossover, so now traffic will go on to the signal at Guignard (Parkway) and 15,

and crossover to the northbound lane there,” said Julie Coker, the city of Sumter’s commercial development coordinator. The three Broad Street intersections will follow in July, August and September. Crews will lay a concrete island in the median of Broad in front of Gion, which will prevent lefthand turns onto Broad. The westbound turn lane to Gion will be repurposed into an eastbound turn lane into the mall. Later, a four-way traffic light will be installed at Broad and Carter, and three business entrances on the north

side of Broad will be combined into one lining up with the intersection. Lastly, a concrete median will be added to Broad, east of S.C. 441, replacing a thin grass median that traffic sometimes crosses to enter a parking lot short of the intersection. All projects combined will cost the county $525,929.15. They were bid out as a group last year to the Charles Smith Co. of Sumter. The four intersections targeted this summer follow earlier work on two downtown intersections on Calhoun Street, at Lafayette Drive and Main Street.

“We did the downtown streets earlier because they’re a little simpler. Those are more urban streets that involved putting in new signals and crosswalks,” McGregor said. Some lanes might be closed in work areas, but traffic should be able to use all the affected roadways with as little disruption as possible. “During the work on Gion, at lunch you might see more congestion, but I suspect that’s the most disruption you’ll see,” McGregor said. “These are minimal changes,” Coker said, “but they’ll have a big impact.”

County budget up for first vote Tuesday

Council to talk budgets for first responders

BY BRISTOW MARCHANT bmarchant@theitem.com (803) 774-1272

LOCAL BRIEF Sumter City Council will consider the needs of the city’s emergency departments during a budget meeting on Tuesday. Police Chief Russell Roark and Fire Chief Karl Ford are scheduled to discuss “facility needs” with council members when they meet to review the city’s proposed budget for the coming fiscal year. The meeting will be held at the fire training grounds on McCrays Mill Road. The police and fire departments regularly receive the largest share of funding in the city’s general fund, with department requests of more than $8 million and $6 million respectively for the 2015 fiscal year. The new budget must be set and approved by city council by July 1. The budget meeting is set to begin at 6 p.m.

Sumter County’s annual budget will face its first vote on Tuesday, with just over a month remaining for county officials to bring the $45 million spending plan into balance. At last check, the county had to close a gap of around $900,000 between expected revenue for the 2014-15 fiscal year and the projected spending needs of Sumter County departments and programs. Sumter County Council will meet in a special budget workshop at 5 p.m. Tuesday before members take their first vote on the plan at council’s 6 p.m. regular meeting. “It’s normal not to have a balanced budget on first reading,” said Councilman Charles Edens. “We won’t have any trouble on first reading, that’s a formality. But we’ll probably have another workshop before the next meeting.” Any budget must pass three separate readings by council before it can go into effect, and there are only three scheduled council meetings left before the beginning of the new fiscal year on July 1. County officials may have some tough choices to make before crafting the final

budget, which under state law must be balanced. At its last budget session, council received requests for extra funding and personnel from several county department heads. When combined, the requests would add another $1.5 million to county spending demands. “The only way we’re going to do that is with a tax increase,” said Councilman Eugene Baten, “and I do not see getting the other side, the Republican members, to budge on it.” The county has faced other challenges in trying to balance its books. Only this past week, state budget forecasts confirmed counties would receive the same amount of money in local government funds as last year, after the Senate had earlier moved $16 million into a provisional budget. That would have cost Sumter County around $300,000 in state funding. The latest Senate version of the budget would increase funding to counties over last year’s budget, even if the local government fund is still funded at a lower level than state law calls for. “Hopefully, we’ll get at least the same as we did last year,” Edens said. “It’s not a relief, because it’s not where it should be, but a week ago, we didn’t know what they were going to do.” Drawing up a balanced budget at the same time the state Legislature is ad-

justing funding for local governments is always a challenge for local officials. “I’ve been at third reading and texting (State Rep.) Murrell Smith to find out what we were going to get,” Edens said. Baten said his priority is ensuring all county employees get a pay raise out of the budget, which could alleviate some of the personnel issues department heads brought up at the last meeting. But if cuts can’t be found in the draft budget, the alternative is a raise in the county’s tax millage. “That’s the last thing you want to do, but sometimes we have to,” Baten said. “Every time we do, I have to pay it too. I’m not exempt.” Last year’s county budget included a 1.7-mill increase in county property taxes, something that nearly derailed the process. The budget had to go through a second round of readings when council deadlocked on an earlier version, and the document only passed on a 4-3 vote at a specially-called meeting days before the deadline. Council members this year are reluctant to do that again. “Not with my vote,” Edens said. “I would hope that’s not going to be necessary, and my gut feeling is the rest of council does not want to see a millage increase. We’re just going to keep working on it.”

Use diet and exercise to promote lifelong bone health

ccording to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, approximately 57 million Americans are affected by osteoporosis or low bone mass causing more than 2 million bone breaks each year. Although women are at greater risk, men can get it too. In fact, a man over the age of 50 is more likely to break a bone due to osteoporosis than he is to Missy get prostate Corrigan cancer. Osteoporosis is a disease that thins or weakens the bones, leaving your bones frail and weak and increasing your risk of suffering broken bones from even the slightest impact. It is sometimes called a “silent disease” because the disease occurs slowly over time without any warning signs. Luckily it is a preventable and treatable disease. There are both controllable and uncontrollable factors that can put you at risk for developing osteoporosis. The uncontrollable factors are being over age 50, female, height loss, family history, or a small, thin frame. The controllable factors are poor diet, eating disorders, inactive lifestyle, smoking, drinking alcohol and losing weight. Even some prescription medications can cause bone loss. Both diet and exercise play a vital role in developing and maintaining good bone health. Foods can either play a positive or negative role in calcium absorption for strong bones. Sodas, caffeine and alcohol can prevent the absorption of calcium, causing bone loss. A well-balanced diet that consists of a variety of healthy foods such as dairy, vegetables, fish and other lean protein sources, limits pro-

cessed foods and reduces sodium intake is ideal for calcium absorption and strong bones. Regular physical activity is crucial for optimal bone growth and the maintenance of bone mass and density. The best workout for osteoporosis prevention is one that involves a combination of

strength training, weight bearing activity, small muscle development exercises, and stretch and balance exercises, combined with aerobic activities. Posture exercises are also very important. So for those who spend most days hunched over working on a project or at a computer,

be sure to take posture breaks to relieve the stress and tension in your spine and neck. If you are at risk or are already have osteoporosis, it is important to seek out a healthcare professional that can help diagnose, manage or treat the disease.

TIPS FOR PREVENTION: • Avoid processed foods; • Perform strength training exercises; • Eat a well-balanced diet; and • Get screened regularly.

FISCAL 2015 MILITARY

MINIMUM WAGE, EQUAL PAY:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Here’s how area members of Congress voted on major issues in the week ending May 23.

BUDGET: Voting 325 for and 98 against, the House on May 22 authorized a $600.7 billion military budget (HR 4435) for fiscal 2015, including $74 billion for U.S. engagements in Afghanistan; $5 billion for other overseas actions; nearly $60 billion for active-duty and retiree health care; $17.9 billion for nuclearweapons programs run by the Department of Energy and $8.3 billion for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. The bill funds a 1.8 percent military pay raise, bars higher co-payments or enrollment fees in the military health care system known as Tricare, keeps prosecution of sexual-assault cases in the chain of command and authorizes a force of 1,308,920 active-duty personnel and 827,800 reservists. Additionally, the bill suspends military cooperation with Russia; bars closure of the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, military prison; maintains a fleet of 11 aircraft carriers; prohibits base closings; funds 10 Apache helicopters for Egypt; bolsters the U.S. Africa and Cyber commands; expands U.S. European Command support of countries bordering Russia; upgrades mental-health and suicide-prevention programs; and prohibits the retirement of Air Force U-2 spy planes and Navy cruisers. A yes vote was to pass the bill. VOTE H-1 slugged MILITARY SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Mark Sanford,

By a vote of 194 for and 227 against, the House on May 22 defeated a motion by Democrats to prohibit the awarding of contracts under HR 4435 (above) to companies that fail to pay a minimum wage of $10.10 per hour or provide pay equity between male and female employees, among other provisions. A yes vote was to require firms to pay a $10.10 minimum wage as a condition of receiving military contracts.

BAN ON CLIMATE-CHANGE SPENDING: Voting 231 for and 192 against, the House on May 22 adopted an amendment to HR 4435 (above) that would prohibit the Department of Defense from spending funds in its fiscal 2015 budget on programs that address climate change. A yes vote was to prohibit military spending to deal with climate change. VOTE H-3 slugged CLIMATE SOUTH CAROLINA Voting yes: Sanford, Wilson (SC), Duncan (SC), Gowdy, Mulvaney, Rice (SC) Voting no: Clyburn Not voting: None

REPEAL OF 9/11 WAR RESOLUTION: The House on May 22 refused, 191 for and 233 against,

to repeal the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), which, along with the Iraq war resolution approved in 2002, has been the legal basis of U.S. military actions since 9/11. The amendment was offered to HR 4435 (above). Backers said that after repeal, presidents would still have constitutional authority to act quickly to protect national security, but opponents said repeal would increase U.S. exposure to terrorist attacks. A yes vote was to repeal open-ended war authority enacted one week after 9/11.

INDEFINITE MILITARY DETENTION IN THE U.S.: Voting 191 for and 230 against, the House on May 22 defeated an amendment to HR 4435 (above) that would repeal the authority presidents were granted after 9/11 to indefinitely detain suspected members of terrorist organizations in U.S. military custody without charges rather than assign them to America’s civilian criminal-justice system. Adam Smith, D-Wash., said “our Constitution works, and we ought to value it, and we ought to let (it) work. (Indefinite detention) is not necessary. It is an enormous amount of power to grant the executive, and I believe (it) places liberty and freedom at risk in this country.” A yes vote was to repeal presidential powers to order indefinite detention.

Under one closure scenario, about half of Guantanamo’s 154 detainees would be transferred to super-max prisons in the U.S., and the remainder — those regarded as non-threatening to the U.S. — would be sent to other countries.

He assumes a term that will expire on Feb. 1, 2020, and which became vacant when Janet Yellen was confirmed in January as Federal Reserve chair. Fischer, 70, who holds dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship, has been chief economist at the World Bank, a governor of the Bank of Israel and professor of economics at schools

As a top Justice Department official in the Obama administration, Barron authored two classified memos providing a legal basis for a U.S. drone strike in Yemen in 2011 that killed Anwar alAwaiki, an American citizen and terrorist suspect.

FORUM FROM PAGE A1 drive through House District 50. “These days, Sumter County is looking more like Lee County; you can see the decline creeping closer to town,” Alston said. The incumbent argued the district has seen advancement in his time in office. Lee County has laid the groundwork to attract new industry, Brown said, and he supported a penny tax that led to the construction of new schools. If local businesses have struggled in recent years, it’s because the district needs to position itself to compete in a global economy. “Commerce (Department) can tell you Lee has some of the best industrial sites in the state,” Brown said. “We have sites along I-20, sites that have water and sewage connected and ready to go.” But Alston told the forum industrial sites don’t matter “when you don’t have any industry in them,” and said the district may need a new face in the Statehouse to move forward. “I would be an advocate for the invisible and the voiceless,” he said. Both men took jabs at each other as they alternated answering questions from NAACP moderator Roland Richardson. Brown

Jimmy McCain, above, touted his management experience and community involvement in Thursday’s candidate forum. Charlie Jones, left, speaks at the forum, promising to aggressively bring new development and business to Sumter County Council District 6. pointed out Alston, who previously lived in Atlanta, has never voted in the district before. Alston noted that Brown, despite his advocacy for public education, sent his children to private school. “Attack me on how I vote,” Brown said. “The South Carolina Education Association has never rated me below a 91. I have an A+ voting record on public education.” In the race for Sumter County Council District 6, the two candidates offered voters a choice between bold and cautious approaches to the seat. Jones, a recording artist, said he would take an

aggressive approach to getting more money for Sumter’s southside. “We’re not going to change anything unless we’re outspoken, and I am. And I don’t mind people saying I’m anything but a child of God,” Jones said. “I speak truth to power. All the officials in Sumter know me because I’ve been in their face.” McCain, on the other hand, when asked what qualities recommend him for the job stressed his humility, along with his management experience with UPS. “You’re not going to be able to just bring jobs to the area. Whoever’s elected, this

is going to be their first time on a new job, and you’ve got to learn the job,” he said. “I managed a million-dollar budget, so I know how to cut out waste, but first I’ve got to learn the job.” Jones is confident he can cut waste in county government (“any department that gets new vehicles every year, throw that money out,” he said), and instead use any savings to promote development in the sixth district. He said his goal is to see the Manning Avenue corridor as full of businesses as Broad Street. “The southside is one of the most neglected sections

of the county,” he said. “If you tell the county administrator to draw up the papers, it will look completely different in three or four years.” McCain touted long-term development that would prepare the groundwork for bringing growth to the area. “What national business is going to come there with the way it looks now? You’ve got to revitalize the neighborhoods before you bring in new business,” he said. “The only way to increase revenue without new taxes is to bring in new industry and jobs. You can’t get it by waving a magic wand, but we can bring it in.”

On TV, beer looks a lot more romantic than it really is This column first appeared on Sunday, June 11, 1989.

COMMENTARY

sionable teenagers, too many of whom equate having a good time with swilling beer, regardless of the fact that they’re below the legal age for consuming alcoholic beverages. Although the legal drinking age is 21 in South Carolina, it hasn’t deterred ingenious youths Hubert D. from partakOsteen Jr. ing, thanks to the booming cottage industry of phony identification cards. Fortunately, law enforcement authorities in some locales are beginning to crack down on drinking establishments that are too casual about honoring these cards.

ertain TV commercials have become familiar staples. You remember the scenes: Young and old alike, enjoying life, sharing warm moments together, laughing, hugging, interacting in touchy-feely interludes of glowing friendship and togetherness. As the 30-second spots come to a close, the camera pans to a positively irresistible shot of A Cold One that, the commercial suggests, is indispensable to enjoying life. A Cold One, of course, is a beer, glorified in these visual representations as something no young, vigorous, trendy, with-it person should be denied as he enjoys the greater pleasures of life. Unfortunately, these slick commercials have a way of making an impact on impres-

But unfortunately, the glorification of young people “having a good time” by guzzling beer continues unabated. Case in point was an article appearing in Columbia’s leading newspaper earlier this week that highlighted a group of recent high school graduates earning their Sun Fun diplomas on the Grand Strand in endless pursuit of a six-pack and nubile females. These stories about high-spirited youths sowing their wild oats on the coast are amusing enough until the reality of statistics showing fatally-injured drivers being over-represented by beerdrinking youths, ages 14 to 20, begins to take hold. As a parent whose teenage son is at the beach this week celebrating his high school graduation, I can appreciate the difference between myth and reality as I ponder the statistics. No doubt my son will be exposed to beer, illegally ob-

tained, just as his peers are constantly exposed to the myth and reality of “having a good time” and the consequences of having too good a time by attempting to drive a car while intoxicated. It’s tough enough these days raising a kid in a society where the all-intrusive boob tube portrays alcoholic consumption as the equivalent to a religious experience without having a newspaper join the crowd by depicting partying by footloose teenagers as amusing and harmless high-jinks. While the more liberal elements in our culture may look upon such escapades as young people “finding themselves” or “participating fully in life,” at the risk of sounding like a prude, I prefer to view with alarm. I have yet to see any teenager — and I was one once — with the maturity and capacity to be able to drink sensibly. Perhaps that’s why, when

all the statistics and empirical data are compiled and analyzed, the printout reads that the legal drinking age should be 21. If the cops want to toss teenagers in the slammer for drinking beer, or come down hard on those who sell alcoholic beverages to them, they have my blessing. I’d rather see kids behind bars than under the soil. Breaking the law by drinking at an early age is not conducive to longevity or developing values that make one a better citizen. If the brewers wish to glorify great moments in beer-drinking featuring attractive, justplain-folks and high-octane yuppies, that’s their prerogative, but let’s try to separate myth from reality, and try to remind teens that the crowd enjoying the high life are all over 21.

COMMENTARY

You go left, you go right T

he men, women and children obeyed the commands of the Nazi SS guards. They had no choice. Thus began the systematic separation of husband from wives, brother from brother. Daughters and sisters hugged and said their goodbyes; mothers cried out for their children, panicking, desperately struggling to shield them from certain death; children sobbed for their mothers; their small minds knew they were in the presence of evil. The gas chamber was ahead. Death was within walking distance, either to the left or to the right. Between 1933 and 1945, more than 11 million people perished in Nazi concentration, labor, ghetto, transit and extermination camps. More than half were Jewish, about two-thirds of the Jewish population living in Europe. One-and-half million Jewish children perished. They were starved, shot, worked to death or died from disease or medical experimentations. They were asphyxiated in gas chambers and, no doubt, some died of broken Steve hearts, their spirits broken. Barwick By 1942, the Nazis had established six “killing centers” or “death camps” where millions were murdered. Within a few hours of arriving at one of the killing centers, prisoners stripped of their possessions, marched into the gas chambers and were asphyxiated. Those too weak or sick to walk to their death were shot. Bodies were burned in crematoriums or buried in pits designed to hide from the world the cruelty of mass slaughter. Auschwitz, one of the more widely known death camps and the most adept in the extermination of its prisoners, was a network of camps consisting of Auschwitz I, Auschwitz II-Birkenau and Auschwitz III-Monowitz. The liberation of Auschwitz came in January 1945 but not before an estimated 1.1 million people surrendered their lives to its gas chambers. The discovery of hundreds of thousands of suits, outfits and 14,000 pounds of human hair provided evidence of the carnage that had happened at this horrible place. Many more perished in camps that supported the killing centers or in massacres that occurred in such places as Babi Yar, where as many as 100,000 to 150,000 Jews were killed along with thousands of So-

viet prisoners of war, communist, gypsies and others. Or they died in mobile death vans, equipped to pump carbon monoxide to the captured passengers. The Holocaust was real, the Nazis’ “final solution” almost succeeded. However, on Dec. 8, 1941, America declared war on Japan. Three days later, on Dec. 11, 1941, Adolf Hitler declared war on the United States, asserting “We can’t lose the war at all. We now have an ally (Japan) which has never been conquered in 3,000 years.” Hitler should have listened to the feelings of Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, who sensed the bombing of Pearl Harbor had awakened a sleeping giant, filling the giant with resolve. These feelings proved to be prophetic. America and its allies conquered Germany and liberated thousands of concentration camp prisoners. The dreadful and ghastly conditions endured by Holocaust victims pungently greeted the liberators, sickening the most hardened combat veterans. Liberation brought hope, joy and relief to thousands of Holocaust survivors who faced certain death. But they would never escape the memories of the camps’ brutality, misery and carnage. Thirty-five U.S. Army divisions are recognized for their roles in liberating the concentration camps and survivors. This testament to America’s brave soldiers who triumphed over evil serves as a reminder that without America’s dominant and powerful military, the world as we know it would not exist. During the almost four years of declared war, America’s “Greatest Generation” came-of-age, successfully defending America and ridding the world of Hitler, the Third Reich and their ideologue of tyranny.

Fortunately for the world, America’s great generations continued to flourish. Their wars have been fought on the frozen hills of Korea and in the steamy jungles of Vietnam. They come home from battles in Afghanistan and Iraq as applauded soldiers, many with life-altering physical wounds and veiled mental challenges, debilitating afflictions most people cannot comprehend. Today, Operation Enduring Freedom and al-Qaida keep our soldiers constantly on vigil and in a state of alert. They readily deploy, upon a moment’s notice, when fanatics, determined to destroy our country, attack our nation or threaten its citizens. America’s future and continued prosperity requires a strong military made up of men and women proficiently trained and prepared to defend our country from the ever-present dangers of terrorism. Their vigilance must and will continue. But the call to duty also requires men and women of faith who can lead nations, states, regions and communities throughout the world; men and women of faith who champion the struggle against hunger, suffering, brutality, terrorism and injustice; men and women of faith who will prevent another Holocaust. This Memorial Day, take a moment to breathe in the freedoms of this country. Remember the sacrifices our military men and women endured. Say hello, shake the hand, and thank those who sacrifice today, and wish them Godspeed. For it will be these same men and women, who, through their military service and commitment to this nation will prevent modern-day extremists from commanding “you go left, you go right.” Reach Steve Barwick at gadawgcpa@gmail.com.

ALTON L. DEAS

MANNING â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Thomas Dukes Sr., 83, husband of Evoila Butler Dukes, died Friday, May 23, 2014, at Clarendon Memorial Hospital in Manning. He was born Aug. 7, 1930, in Manning, a son of the late Tom Dukes and Gretchel Conyers. Family is receiving friends at the residence. These services have been entrusted to Samuels Funeral Home LLC in Manning.

Alton Laverne Deas, 73, died on Saturday, May 24, 2014, at Tuomey Regional Medical Center. Arrangements are incomplete at this time and will be announced by Bullock Funeral Home.

SAMUEL PRINCE Jr. Samuel Prince Jr., 66, husband of Cartear Jean Evans Prince died late Friday eve-

911 TEXT FROM PAGE A1 Skipper said the primary concern is correspondence, the back-and-forth chatter between dispatchers and callers that is absolutely vital in emergency situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much more we can gather during a voice conversation than by something like texting,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For one, the background noise definitely clues us in as to the severity of the situation, such as gunshots and other clues. Second, hearing a callerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voice also gives us more information. For example, if you tell me you have a history of diabetes, then your slurred speech tells me youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re about to bottom out, and I can relay that to EMS as theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sent to respond.â&#x20AC;? But what about the deaf and mute? Skipper said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already a system in place for that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the people in our deaf/mute community already have a machine called a TTY or TDD, also known as a Telecommunications Device for the Deaf,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through that machine, the deaf can type individual messages to 911 operators.â&#x20AC;? Skipper explained that TDD users send in a call to 911, and technology at the call center registers the incoming call as coming from someone who is hearing-impaired. Callers and operators send messages back and forth during the calls, each message ending with the abbreviation â&#x20AC;&#x153;GAâ&#x20AC;? for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go Ahead.â&#x20AC;? Operators also have prepared messages, such as the initial prompt of â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have reached Sumter 911. Where is your emergency?â&#x20AC;? to help speed the process along. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knowing where you are is by far the most crucial information,â&#x20AC;? Skipper said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As long as we have that, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll send everything.â&#x20AC;?

ning, May 23, 2014, at Tuomey Regional Medical Center in Sumter. Born in the New Zion section of Clarendon County, he was a son of Mary Lee Prince and the late Samuel Prince Sr. The family will receive friends at the home, 1027 Nathaniel St., Sumter. Samuels Funeral Home LLC of Manning is in charge of arrangements.

As far as how frequently emergency calls come from the deaf, Skipper said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty rare. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to dig through records a bit before I could tell you the last time we had a deaf or mute caller,â&#x20AC;? she said. Rick Blackwell, 911 director of Greenville, said the system they have, while useful, has only been used a few dozen times since being implemented. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had about 38 cases or so since January,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There have been a few (criminal domestic violence) cases where texting was used to contact local law enforcement.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s little opposition to the belief that a mobile option for the deaf and/or mute community would be beneficial in emergency situations, but considering the reliance on texting exhibited by younger generations, Skipper said it should not be considered a substitute method by the public at large. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in an area that supports 911 texting, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Call when you can, text when you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Skipper said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I mean only when you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call.â&#x20AC;? Like Skipper, Blackwell strongly advocates that people continue using the voice system as the primary means of contacting 911 operators. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This definitely isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a replacement system,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We strongly prefer you call us rather than text.â&#x20AC;? Skipper had additional questions about the limitations of such a system. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are women who walk around today, many of them victims of criminal domestic violence, who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t af-

LILY McFADDEN Lily McFadden, 88, the widow of Henry McFadden, entered eternal rest on Friday,

SUNDAY, MAY 25, 2014 May 23, 2014, in Sumter Health and Rehab Center, Sumter. Born April 2, 1926, in Sumter, she was the daughter of the late Eugene and Hattie Miller. Funeral plans will be announced by Community Funeral Home of Sumter.

ROBERT BRACEY Robert Bracey, 77, the husband of Susie Lee Rose Bracey, entered eternal rest on Friday, May 23, 2014, in Regional Medical Center, Orangeburg. Born July 14, 1936 in Sumter, he was the son of the late Isaiah and Corine Williams Bracey. The family is receiving relatives and friends at the home of his daughter, Letha B. Haynesworth, 130 Curtis Wood Drive, Sumter. Funeral plans will be announced by Community Funeral Home of Sumter.

STEPHEN C. BATTILANA Sr. Stephen Charles Battilana Sr., 73, husband of Judy Barfield Battilana, died Sat-

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;From a 911 voice call, I can get exactly what I need from a caller in 30 to 50 seconds. You could give me all the information that I need as an operator in that amount of time â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about the same time youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d just be finishing the first text.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; SHIRLENE SKIPPER director for 911 in Sumter ford a cellphone plan, but carry an out-of-service phone just in case they need to dial 911,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So long as that battery stays charged, they can still call 911, regardless of whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s active or not. Does the same apply for texting?â&#x20AC;? According to Blackwell, the system in Greenville operates through T-Mobile and Verizon networks. He said the rules are different for each carrier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With Verizon, you have to have a data plan to send texts to 911,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With T-Mobile, you can still text 911 without a data plan.â&#x20AC;? The 911 texting system uses SMS messaging, and Skipper was concerned about message lengths. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our carriers here operate through a web portal that al-

lows up to 256 characters,â&#x20AC;? Blackwell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That should be plenty of room to get us the information we need.â&#x20AC;? Smartphone users, or younger texters who might not even be privy to a time when the length of a text message was limited by character count, occasionally type longer messages. So what happens if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too long?

urday, May 24, 2014, at his home. Born in Sacramento, California, he was a son of the late Angelo Battilana and the late Betsie Brown Cook. Mr. Battilana retired from the Sumter County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office after 21 years of service. Survivors include his wife of 36 years; five children, Cindy Harding (Mike), Stephen C. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chuckâ&#x20AC;? Battilana Jr. (Natalie) and Melissa Evans (Jeremiah), all of Virginia, Rene Potter (Jeff ) of Lynchburg and David Battilana of Sumter; 17 grandchildren; several great-grandchildren; one brother, Richard Battilana of California; one sister, Marilyn Morris of California; and a number of nieces and nephews. The family will receive friends from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at Elmore-CannonStephens Funeral Home and Crematorium and other times at the home. Elmore-Cannon-Stephens Funeral Home and Crematorium of Sumter is in charge of the arrangements.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have to give you an honest â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Blackwell said. Would it get cut off at the end of the initial message? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tested that yet,â&#x20AC;? Blackwell explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d imagine it comes as a second text message.â&#x20AC;? If Sumter were to decide to implement such a system, Roark said it would take some time before the new technology would be active. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make sure we have the proper technical support on the backend before we begin working toward a system that supports communication through text messaging,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The (Sumter) Telecommunications Center is currently responsible for dispatching emergency responders throughout Sumter County. There are many factors involved in upgrading the entire system, and it will take some time to do so in the proper fashion.â&#x20AC;?

Back on right track

Changes in store for League III BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennisb@theitem.com The American Legion baseball League III season begins on Tuesday, and there are some changes in the way things will be done. None of them are major changes, but little tweaks that are certainly noticeable.

A 6-TEAM LEAGUE

SUMTER ITEM FILE PHOTO

Manning-Santee’s J.T. Eppley will be counted on at the plate and the mound this season as Post 68 looks to bounce back from a disappointing 2013 campaign. Manning opens its season at home on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. against League III foe Sumter.

After disappointing end to ’13 season, Cutter returns with sights set on getting Manning-Santee headed in right direction again BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS jdriggers@theitem.com The end of the 2013 Manning-Santee Post 68 American Legion baseball season was not how G.G. Cutter wanted to remember his last time coaching the program. Cutter, who had stepped down as head coach after more than a decade with the program at the beginning of the season, was asked to step in toward the end of the year after Billy Sylvester departed to focus on his new head coaching job at Darlington High School.

“Billy had too much on his plate and they asked me to step in and I did,” Cutter said. “But there were a lot of issues last year. Some kids were playing travel ball and Legion and they interfered with each other.” The result was Post 68 forfeited its final two games of the year to Cheraw and missed the playoffs CUTTER with a 3-13 overall mark. “I didn’t want to leave the program the way we did last year,” Cutter said. “I felt like I owed it to the community to

After being a 5-team league for the past several years, League III is back to having six teams with the addition of Dalzell-Shaw Post 175. The Jets have been playing in the Columbia league, but are back in League III with fellow local programs Sumter Post 15 and Manning-Santee Post 68. The other three teams are Camden, Cheraw and Hartsville.

get things back in the right direction, so I decided to come back for another year.” Cutter believes Manning-Santee is off to a good start this season and hopes that Post 68 can regain its footing in the now 6-team League III. “It’s been a good fit so far,” Cutter said. “I’ve enjoyed coaching this group. They’re easy to coach. They’re energetic and want to play, and they’re focused on this season.” This year’s Manning-Santee squad

The League III schedule will cover 15 games with the teams playing each other three times. There’s nothing unusual in that, but the order in which those games will be played will be new to the league. Instead of having games scattered out over the 6-week long schedule, teams will play a 3-game series each week. That is what Region VI-4A, in which Sumter High School plays, has been doing over the past few years. Sumter and Manning-

Austin, Gilchrist to meet for title BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennisb@theitem.com

DENNIS BRUNSON / THE SUMTER ITEM

Brooke Austin returns the ball to Petra Januskova during her 6-4, 6-3 semifinal victory on Saturday in the Palmetto Pro Open at Palmetto Tennis Center. Austin advanced to the finals for the third time in four years and is looking for her first title when she meets Nadja Gilchrist today at approximately 1 p.m.

This is old hat for Brooke Austin. Taking the final step has been the problem. Austin reached the singles championship match of the Palmetto Pro Open for the third time in four years on Saturday, beating Petra Januskova 6-4, 6-3 on the Hodgin Stadium Court at Palmetto Tennis Center. Now the No. 3 seed hopes she’ll be able to hoist the championship trophy today. “This will be the fifth time (Austin has been in a USTA Pro Circuit final),” the 18-year-old Austin said. “I just want to win one of them.” In order for that to happen, she’ll have to beat

Nadja Gilchrist, the qualifier who will be playing her ninth match in nine days at PTC today. Gilchrist beat No. 4 seed Caitlin Whoriskey 6-3, 6-3 in the other semifinal. The PPO championship matches will begin today at 11:30 a.m. The doubles final will have the No. 1 team of Whoriskey GILCHRIST and Sonja Molnar taking on Sophie Chang and Andie K. Daniell beginning at 11:30 a.m. The singles final will begin no earlier than 1 p.m. Austin, who was the Palmetto Pro Open runner-up in both 2011 and ’13, thinks she is a better player than

she was when she reached the other final matches. “I feel like I’m much more mature as a player,” said Austin, who has signed to play with the University of Florida. “I feel like I’m a stronger player than I was last year.” Januskova, who was playing in her first pro semifinal match, didn’t make it easy on Austin. After Austin won the first set, Januskova was actually leading the second set 3-2 before Austin broke her twice on the way to winning four straight games. Gilchrist continued her wild ride from qualifier to finalist. She won four matches to earn one of the qualifying spots in the

Junior looks to win NASCAR’s longest race BY PETE IACOBELLI The Associated Press CONCORD, N.C. — Some of Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s earliest NASCAR memories came at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and he hopes to add another big one by winning the Coca-Cola 600 tonight. Earnhardt grew up watching his late father, Dale Earnhardt, race here more than 30 years ago and has long wanted to win NASCAR’s longest race as his dad accomplished three times, the last in 1993. “I want to win a points race

fine, then ran out of gas on the front straightaway and coasted through the final turn before Kevin Harvick passed him for the win. Earnhardt finished seventh, his sixth top-10 finish in the Memorial Day weekend race. Earnhardt has won the All-Star race here before, in 2000. He kept the strong showing going a week later when he won his only pole at Charlotte. In the race, though, Earnhardt faded to fourth. “We’ve had some good cars, but not anywhere near enough,’’ he

MLB ROUNDUP

Pair of HRs lead Rockies past Braves 3-1 ATLANTA — Michael Cuddyer and Troy Tulowitzki each homered, Juan Nicasio solved the Braves and the Colorado Rockies beat Atlanta 3-1 Saturday. The Rockies were without some of their big bats. Carlos Gonzalez missed his third straight start with a swollen finger and Nolan Arenado was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a broken TULOWITZKI finger. Nicasio (5-2) didn’t need much offense. The right-hander turned around his ugly history against the Braves — 0-3 and 9.82 ERA in four starts. He gave up only two hits in six shutout innings. Nicasio pitched around four walks and had five strikeouts. Atlanta’s Mike Minor (2-3) allowed three runs on four hits — including the two homers — in 6 2/3 innings. PIRATES 3 NATIONALS 2

CINCINNATI — Left-hander Jaime Garcia got his first victory in more than a year and Yadier Molina homered to lead St. Louis to a 6-3 victory over Cincinnati.

PHILADELPHIA — David Buchanan threw five effective innings in his major league debut and Chase Utley hit a 2-run homer to power Philadelphia past the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3. Filling in for injured ace Cliff Lee, Buchanan (1-0) gave the struggling Phillies a lift. The 25-year-old righty allowed two runs and five hits, striking out two. MARLINS 2 BREWERS 1

MIAMI — Jacob Turner pitched 6 1/3 scoreless innings to help Miami win for the third time in four games with a 2-1 victory over Milwaukee. Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Jeff Baker drove in the runs for the Mar-

PETERSBURG, Fla. — Andrew Miller threw a force attempt at second base into center field, allowing pinch-runner Cole Figueroa to score in the bottom of the 15th inning as Tampa Bay handed Boston its ninth consecutive loss, 6-5. James Loney opened the 15th with a single off Miller (1-4). Figueroa ran for Loney and went to second on Brandon Guyer’s bunt single. He scored when Miller threw the ball into center field while attempting to get a double play on Desmond Jennings’ grounder. YANKEES 4 WHITE SOX 3

CHICAGO — Jacoby Ellsbury homered with two outs in the 10th inning, and the New York Yankees snapped an 8-game road losing streak against the Chicago White Sox with a 4-3 victory. The Yankees scored three times in the ninth against Ronald Belisario and then grabbed their first lead of the day when Ellsbury hit a drive to right off Zach Putnam (2-1) for his second homer. RANGERS 12 TIGERS 2

POST 68 FROM PAGE B1 will have a distinct East Clarendon High School flavor to it as nine of the 15 players on the roster are Wolverines. ECHS made the lower state tournament in 1A this past season. “It seems like it comes in cycles, but they’ve always got good players there,” Cutter said. “They’ve been together for a few years now so they’re very familiar with each other and they love to play.” Post 68 also returns four key players from last year. Former Manning High standout and current Spartanburg Methodist College player Jamal Keels will be back in his familiar position in the outfield. He’s joined by three members of Laurence Manning Academy’s 3A state runner-up squad in J.T. Eppley, Russell Thompson and Linc Powell. “LInc’s probably going to be one of our starting pitchers, but Russell and J.T. will pitch some as well,” Cutter said. “Eppley is probably going to bat leadoff for us as well.” Pitching and defense should be strong suites for M-S this season Cutter went on to say as Post 68 sports 11 players who can toe the rubber. “We’ve got a very athletic and versatile group who can play a lot of positions,” he said. “We don’t have to keep them all in just one spot. We can move them around without hurting us too much.” ECHS ace William Ard will be the other main starter on the mound along with Powell while the No. 3 spot is still being decided. Jared Hair, Ryan Knowlton, Dylan Atkinson and Collin Lee are all possibilities and will pitch this year, Cutter said.

Montoya believes he has ‘really good shot’ to win Indy 500 BY JENNA FRYER The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS — Juan Pablo Montoya stormed onto the national scene in 1999 as a brash and fearless rookie who didn’t hesitate to go wheel-towheel with the biggest names. The 23-year-old Montoya backed down from no one, didn’t hesitate to drive his car in the most precarious positions and charged hard in his pursuit of winning races. He collected seven wins and won the CART Series championship, then picked up three more series victories the next year. But there was only one goal in 2000, the year Chip Ganassi Racing returned to the Indianapolis 500 after a four-year absence. Ganassi pushed hard for an Indy 500 win, and Montoya delivered in a monstrous way: The Colombian led 167 of the 200 laps as he routed the field and beat runner-up Buddy Lazier by more than seven seconds. Then he was gone, off to Formula One for 5 1/2 years and then seven full seasons in NASCAR. Montoya never looked back, never once considered another run at the Indianapolis 500.

Until now. Now 38, Montoya is back in IndyCar, driving for storied Team Penske, and after four races and two weeks of practice at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, he’s comfortable again in the race car. “I’m starting to get cockier and cockier and cockier in the car,’’ Montoya told The Associated Press. “Your confidence starts to grow. To be honest, I think I have a really good shot at winning it. I really do. With my oval experience in NASCAR MONTOYA and knowing this place really well, and being with Team Penske, chances of winning don’t come much better than that.’’ That’s the attitude fans expected when Montoya made his return. But it wasn’t just like riding a bike for Montoya, who needed months of testing to relearn the car. It was makeor-break time at the season-opener in March, where many fans thought Montoya would once again make the series look like his own personal play-

JUNIOR FROM PAGE B1 said this week. “There are a lot of other tracks where I think, `Man, we were really close,’ or the car was fast enough. But I’ve never really had a car here that I thought we had it, we were walking away and we gave it away.’’ This might be the time, though. Earnhardt is off to one of his most consistent starts. His No. 88 Chevrolet took the seasonopening Daytona 500, and he’s barely slowed down since. He followed the Daytona win with second-place showings at Phoenix and Las Vegas. He was third in Martinsville, added another runner-up finish at Darlington and was fifth behind winning Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jeff Gordon at Kansas two weeks ago. Most eyes at Charlotte will be awaiting Kurt Busch’s arrival after the former NASCAR champion competes at the Indianapolis 500 earlier Sunday. The Double has been a focus heading into motorsports’ biggest weekend of the year and Earnhardt is among many NASCAR drivers who will be

ground. He was not one of them. “In the first race, I couldn’t outbrake anybody,’’ he said. “In NASCAR, you never pass anybody into the corner, you pass everybody out of the corner. Here, you don’t pass anybody out of the corner. Everything is in the braking, and I haven’t outbraked anybody in seven years. So I had to relearn.’’ He finished fourth at Long Beach, the second race of the season, and started to get his feel again. Now, after four races, he has shown he is ready for Indy. Montoya had the fastest four-lap average — 231.007 mph — among drivers ineligible to win the pole and will start 10th on Sunday. “Things we try now are good, and when we tried them two months ago, I couldn’t drive it,’’ he said. “It definitely shows I’m getting more comfortable in the car, and then the speed starts getting better. It’s good now that we go to practices and I’m starting to get quicker than my teammates. It feels like we are headed in the right direction.’’

Defending race winner Tony Kanaan praised Montoya’s ability to get work through his return while driving alongside Penske teammates Helio Castroneves and Will Power. “He’s the right guy for that position,’’ Kanaan said. “When you get into a team that has Will Power and Helio, with so much success, you can’t have somebody with a weak frame of mind or very insecure because they would never last. Within the first three races, they would get beat and they would get down. But now they better watch out, because he’s coming.’’ Montoya said he now has a better understanding of how to make the car do what he wants. With each day, his speed improves and he believes he’s now on the same pace as Power and Castroneves. Soon, he believes he could be the Montoya of 14 years ago. “I don’t want to be disrespectful to NASCAR, but in NASCAR the limit is the car,’’ he said. “Here, for me, the limit is still me. And when the limit is me, and I figure out what my limit is, that’s going to be a problem.’’

Harvick, who with Joey Logano leads NASCAR drivers with two Sprint Cup wins this season, is seeking his third 600 win in the past four. While he was the beneficiary of Earnhardt’s dry gas tank three years back, Harvick powered away from Kasey Kahne with 11 laps left a year ago.

even more energized about his chances to win since moving to Stewart-Haas Racing this season. Harvick believes he’s never had as many resources. “So you just have to ride the wave and try and keep getting better,’’ he said. This could also be the week when six-time series champi-

on Jimmie Johnson breaks through for his first win this season. Johnson’s been steady if not spectacular all year long, both on the race track and about patiently answering those who question his winless start. “If I win, then I’m winning too much. If I’m not winning, then it’s: ‘Why aren’t you winning?’ So I can’t do it right either way,’’ Johnson said with a smile. Those worries may be lifting: Johnson will start up front Sunday after capturing his first pole of the season. Earnhardt will start 10th, and he’s concentrating on keeping his car in one piece and in contention before hitting that final stretch. If the No. 88 is near the top, Earnhardt knows his desire for a landmark win at a very special track will take over. “The 600 would be in the top five of my favorite wins if I can get that this weekend,’’ he said.

Still no roof at French Open, where Week 1 could be wet BY HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press PARIS — The French Open draw ceremony began with a video showing an artist’s rendering of what the tournament site is expected to look like in a couple of years, including a planned retractable roof atop the main stadium. For now, though, Roland Garros is the same as it’s been, meaning the rain that’s predicted to fall throughout Week 1 will play havoc with the schedule at the clay-court tournament, which begins today. “We’ll see how it’s going to be with the weather,’’ said Roger Federer, whose 17 Grand Slam titles include the 2009 French Open. “I heard it’s going to be quite difficult, especially the first week with the amount of matches there are to be played. It’s clearly going to have an impact.’’ As it is, the French Open presents a particular test, because of the grueling nature of playing on red clay, where points tend to be longer than on hard or grass courts. Federer knows that dealing properly with the stops and starts is essential. “Sometimes the rain starts at a very bad moment either for you or for the opponent or for the spectators — at the worst moment of the match. So ... you just need to win those matches one way or another, however you do it,’’ he said. “Even if it’s not good tennis, it doesn’t matter.’’ Sprinkles fell Friday, and eight-time French Open champion Rafael

She was planning to go on the pro circuit, but a foot injury caused her to miss almost a year. This is her first tournament since recovering. “I felt like I was playing really well today,” said Gilchrist, a first cousin of National Basketball Association player Michael-Kid Gilchrist. “I was in control in the first match, but in the second set she (Whoriskey) started playing a lot better. I made some adjustments and got back to hitting shots the way I had been.” Austin said she has watched Gilchrist play a bit this week. “She hits the ball really big, wherever she is on the court,” Austin said. Austin said she has to maintain her focus today. “I have to stay in the moment, and I have to play aggressively,” she said. “We’ll see what happens.”

Rafael Nadal, left, and Serena Williams are considered the favorites to take home titles in the French Open, which begins today in Paris. Nadal said: “Hopefully the weather will be better.’’ NADAL THE ‘NO. 1 FAVORITE’

For all of his struggles in the run-up to the 15-day tournament — his three losses on clay are the most for him in any season in a decade — his competition still considers the Spaniard the “No. 1 favorite to win the tournament,’’ as Novak Djokovic put it. Nadal, 59-1 at Roland Garros, is trying to become the first man to win the French Open five consecutive years. He acknowledged feeling “nerves’’ and “anxiety’’ after quarterfinal losses at Monte Carlo and Barcelona this spring, but said reaching the final in Rome made him think

“the dynamic is positive.’’ The second-seeded Serb reached the semifinals five of the past seven years, but it’s the only major trophy missing from his collection. Djokovic said he derived a boost last weekend from beating Nadal on clay at Rome, “something that doesn’t happen every day.’’ But Djokovic is 0-5 against Nadal in Paris.’

et out your best dancing shoes for the SCCB Jazz Band’s second annual Big Band Dance. From 7 to 11 p.m. Friday, May 30, the band invites us to step back in time to a 1940s nightclub setting at the Sumter Elks Lodge on West Liberty Street. “It’ll be just like you were in a club where Glenn Miller might have played,” said Jazz Band leader Rick Mitchum. “We’ll be playing a lot of Glenn Miller’s tunes, as well as some by a lot of the other big bands.” Miller’s “Moonlight Serenade” is the band’s theme song, in fact, and begins each of its concerts. Listen also for tunes made famous by such bands as those of Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Woody Herman, Tommy Dorsey and others. And like those bands, the SCCB Jazz Band will have its star vocalists. Mitchum and Betsy Ridgeway will each sing several songs of the period, including “Over the Rainbow,” “Sentimental Journey,” “Who’s Sorry Now?” and “Unforgettable” and others. “We’ll do Richie Valens’ ‘La Bamba’ — I love that. We’ll also play Dave Brubeck’s ‘Take Five’ for people to just sit back and listen to. It’s a great piece,” Mitchum said. Last year, he said, “We had people of all ages, and some of them like to slow dance. We have a number of tunes you can slow dance to, and then we have some fast-

We’re hoping for an even bigger crowd this year. I’d love to see the (Sumter Ballroom) dance club come out this time.

MR., MRS. JESSE BRUNSON JR.

Loss for words of sympathy is embarrassing for woman DEAR ABBY — I have a very hard time expressing my condolences. I panic and avoid sadDear Abby ness at all ABIGAIL costs. I’ll give you VAN BUREN two examples: My boss’s husband died. (I worked for him, too.) Because I couldn’t talk to her, I avoided her like she had the plague. Another time, a close friend’s son tried to commit suicide and severely injured himself. Instead of hugging my friend’s wife and asking how she was, I waved and went on like I was late for something. I’m ashamed of my behavior. How can I stop myself from acting like this? Embarrassed in California DEAR EMBARRASSED —One way would be to ask yourself WHY you’re afraid of confronting someone’s sadness. Is it fear that doing so will bring you to tears, and you want to avoid the emotion? Because you are feeling shame, I don’t think it is lack of empathy. Being prepared in advance may help you reach out when a condolence is needed. All you have to say is, “I’m sorry for your loss,” or, “I’m sorry about what you’re going through.” In some cases, the person may want to exchange a few words about it, but in others they won’t. Please stop beating yourself up about this. Many people don’t know what to say, or blurt out something inappropriate because they’re uncomfortable with their own feelings. DEAR ABBY — I work in a small bakery. We have a very nice baker here who is an older gentleman. When he gets frustrated, he will shout out, “Son-of-a-rabbit-chas-

er!” We all laugh and have asked him what that saying actually means. He told us his father used to say it. Now the entire bakery is trying to guess what this saying’s true meaning and origin is. Can you help us out? My boss seems to think a “rabbit chaser” is referring to a greyhound dog because they chase rabbits. I don’t think that makes sense. I’m wondering if maybe it refers to a dirty old man chasing a younger woman, but that doesn’t really make sense either. If you can shed any light on this, we would all appreciate it. Dying to know in Milwaukee DEAR DYING TO KNOW — According to my dictionary of American slang, when someone starts an exclamation with “son-of-a,” it is usually to express “anger, annoyance, amazement or disappointment.” The animals that usually chase rabbits are dogs. Your baker may have grown up hearing his father use the expression because back then gentlemen weren’t supposed to say “SOB” in front of ladies or impressionable children because it was considered too crude for tender ears. Ahh, those were the good old days. DEAR ABBY — I am struggling with my friend. We’re both on the cross-country team, but I can run farther than she can. When she stops to walk, I continue to run, but when I do, it makes her very upset. She says I should stop running and walk with her. But if I do that, I will lose valuable mileage. I don’t know what to do. Should I wait for her? Swifty in Nevada DEAR SWIFTY — No, you shouldn’t. Each of you should proceed according to your ability. Please discuss this with your coach. I know she (or he) will back me up on this.

THE DRESS

Brides might follow the lead of model Kate Moss, who wed musician Jamie Hince in July 2011. Moss asked her friend John Galliano to make her a vintage-style wedding dress, and the designer used Zelda Fitzgerald as inspiration. The cream-colored, bias-cut gown featured an Art Deco motif along the bottom, and was embroidered with gold, span-

SETTING THE STAGE Invitations can set the tone with a vintage font — Park Lane, Gatsby, Nite Club and Atlas Regular, among others — and Art Deco details. Use the same typography for table cards and other signage in the reception space. Create your own, or employ a designer. Suggest that guests also come dressed in Roaring

’20s style. For a summer wedding, a venue with big gardens and open space works well for an elegant, Gatsby-esque lawn party. Linens, strung lighting and blankets on the grass provide an easy, relaxed background in which guests can feel comfortable, while you add as much luxury as you like with other elements, such as food, drinks and live music. Croquet was the game of the moment back then, but other old-fashioned lawn games like badminton or bocce could amuse both younger and older guests. For an indoor wedding, decorate with vintage suitcases, globes, gramophones and cameras. Savada recommends touches like embroidered handkerchiefs; engraved silver pieces, such as lighters and tie clips; and those remarkable cars. “They basically cry out to be incorporated into someone’s Roaring ’20s-style celebration,” she says. Hunt and Connell suggest a pleasing palette of blush, peach and ivory, with silver and bronze metallics. Add touches of bling with easy, shimmery materials like charmeuse and voile, gilt-encrusted ribbons, pearls and beading. Glossy black accents add drama. They also suggest silverspangled mesh table covers, and candelabra dripping with pearl strands. You could scrounge flea markets for inexpensive brooches and necklaces to trim napkins and cutlery. Lacy tablecloths are easy to find in antique stores. And peacock and ostrich feathers add flourish to floral displays. Pin vintage family wedding photos on ribbons, clothesline-style, or decorate buffet tables with photos of old-time stars such as Douglas Fairbanks, Clara Bow, Buster Keaton, Rudolf Valentino and Greta Garbo.

BISHOPVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL Bishopville Primary School students harvested knowledge while picking strawberries this May 2. More than 80 kindergarten students were treated to an educational field trip to McArthur Farms in Bennettsville. While there, students were given a hay ride tour of the farm, learned about the life cycle of the strawberry plant and learned how the recent long cold season damaged the plants putting strawberry season four weeks behind schedule. The students were able to discuss the link between the environment and how it affects the strawberry plants. After the tour and lesson, students were able to pick their own bucket of strawberries and enjoyed a picnic lunch. Recently BPS hosted a

SUNDAY, MAY 25, 2014 “Pizza (Math) for Parents” program to help inform parents about the expectations for their children in math. Parents of children in kindergarten through fourth grade were presented with test-taking skills they could practice at home that would assist their children with the PASS test. Each grade level planned an activity involving fractions skills needed at their level using the pizza theme. Strategies such as “Jail the Detail” were shared by Title I Parent Liaison Gwen Frederick. She explained that students “jail the detail” when reading passages by underlining or boxing the important details they read. Parents were then dismissed to the classroom for more activities. Afterwards, parents and students gathered in the cafeteria for pizza and live entertainment from the preschool students.

LEE CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL Congratulations to the Lee Central High School Golf Team for a big win at the Regional Golf Tournament in Andrews.

Sumter Christian School GRADUATION HAS BEGUN As seniors commence their preparations for high school graduation on May 22, the kindergarten class graduated into a new phase of their education, which will last for the next 12 years.

TRIPS AND MORE After the stress of final exams, the seniors had a wonderful time on their senior trip in Kissimmee, Fla. They were able to spend three days at Universal Studios, learn more about Biblical culture at the Holy Land Experience, and of course enjoy time shopping and bonding as a class. Several classes are continuing to venture out on field trips. On Monday, the fourth grade toured the Statehouse in Columbia and went on an exciting scavenger hunt. The seventh- and eighth-grade classes went to Charleston to tour Fort Sumter and experience downtown including a

walk through Market Street. On May 16, the sixth- grade class spent time together making tie-dyed T-shirts that they wore last Tuesday on their trip to Wonderworks in Myrtle Beach. On May 20, the Booster Club held an inaugural meeting to discuss parent-student involvement in the upcoming school year. The primary focus of the Booster Club is to support the school in academics, fine arts and Athletics. As the school year continues to wind down, so do the projects. Amanda Kish’s sixth-grade class presented a report about Western Hemisphere nations, which included PowerPoint presentations as well as the students’ attempts to recreate a food from that particular nation. The sophomores had some mixed reactions to their frog dissection project. Clay Coombs said, “Once you get over the smell and the feel, it’s pretty cool.” Most of the sophomores agreed that it was beneficial to their education even though it got, as TJ Burke put it, “pretty nasty.” — Miriam Marritt

ers. “The dance is on a Friday night,” Mitchum said, “so we hope people will come out and celebrate the end of the work week and the start of the weekend with us.

YESTERYEAR, FROM PAGE C1 enable the speakers to be heard more distinctly. • An afternoon drive over the Stateburg hills, under the guidance of one who is steeped in the history and legends of that interesting community, will be an experience long to be remembered by anyone whose imagination can be stirred by stories of long ago. In this community General Sumter and his descendants made their home, and here also were the homes of Chancellor Waites, Judge Dobien James, John Mayrant, Gov. Miller and the summer residences of John, Edward and Hugh Rutledge, Gov. Alston and his wife, Theodosia Burr, Francis and Charles Kinloch, and many other notable figures in the period between the close of the Revolutionary War and the War Between the States.

50 YEARS AGO - 1964 Aug. 16–22 Dale Bullard scored a comeback victory over Jeffrey Ream yesterday in first-round men’s singles play in the City Tennis Tournament at Memorial Park. Bullard was within one point of defeat in the second set, but he hung on to win that one. Finding himself down two games in the third set, he won six straight to get the win, 4-6, 7-5, 6-4. • Seventy-five Item carrier boys are now competing in the fourth annual “Washington, D. C., Football Trip” contest which started Saturday at noon. “The contest will run for 30 days and should prove to be more interesting than ever before,” Harold Wright, Item Circulation Manager, said today, pointing out that Carl Whitt, last year’s contest winner, is now attending the University of Michigan. • Coach Sandy Hersey summarized the upcoming 1964 football team by stating “This football team is the greenest I’ve fielded in my five years here. We’ve only got 10 lettermen back, and we lost 17. Our best rising sophomore linebacker has moved away, and, we’ve only got two of last year’s starters back. Inexperience, then, a lack of depth will be the big problem, I think,” said Hershey. “We can put a pretty good first team on the field, but after that, I just don’t know — we’ve got so few tested, proven players.” • Winners of prizes awarded Monday night at the formal opening of the Bar-Lin Skate Club were announced today by Robert Lenoir. Kenny Scott won a skate case; Jackie Branson, a skate costume; and Marsha White, a pair of Chicago skates; and Charlie Wilson drew the lucky numbers. • The Beatles’ first movie, “A Hard Day’s Night,” opens Thursday at the Carolina Theatre here. The script of the shaggy foursome’s first filmed adventure revolves about the exploits of the troupe on a whirlwind trip to London and the comedy complications that beset them. • Marc Bellaire, nationally known artist and teacher of ceramic art, will teach classes at Ka Rhe Ceramics School here Aug.t 21 and 22, co-proprietors Mrs. Rheba Lynam and Mrs. Katie Danner announce. Bellaire is scheduled to give instruction in design and under glaze decoration, his specialty fields. • Sumter County will be well represented at the Democratic National Convention which begins Monday in Atlantic City, N.J. State Senator Henry B. Richardson, however, will not attend the convention. Queried this morning by the Item, Richardson said pressing business matters had caused him to notify state Democratic Chairman Yancey McLeod about three weeks ago that he would be unable to go. • Diplomas were presented to 15 graduates of the Sumter Area Technical Center during special exercises held in the

school assembly room on Tuesday evening. Comprising the first graduating class from the year-old institution, six of these students received diplomas in Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, four in Auto Mechanics, two in Industrial Electricity and three in Machine Shop. The commencement address was presented by Dr. John H. Clark, Director, BerkeleyCharleston-Dorchester Technical Education Center. • Booty, a pet of the Ben Mitchell family, took off for parts unknown in July 1963. The 4-year old animal returned home Wednesday after 13 months of “homelessness.” • A new shopping center, Temple Square, holds its grand opening along the busy Broad Street thoroughfare. Developed by Alex Cunningham, who has operated a cabinet shop for many years in the location at Broad and Bultman Drive, Temple Square will include nine separate stores. For many Sumterites the site of Temple Square will bring back nostalgic memories. It was on this site that the old “Pig Inn,” Sumter’s first drive-in, was operated for many years by Clayton Lowder. • Buttons, buttons, everywhere, but not a one to spare. There’s none to spare because 56-year-old Ted Baker collects them. His unique hobby dates back 40 years. Some buttons in the 100,000-plus collection are 200 years old. He has metal, glass, earthen, bone, pearl and cloth-covered buttons. The truck farmer treasures the collection. This fact was proved when it was noted a button was missing on the shirt Mr. Baker was wearing when he was interviewed. • Ribbon Cutting was held on highway 441 near the back gate at Shaw opening a new Brown’s 5 and 10 store. Linwood Ward was the store manager, Travis M. Brown, president and owner: J.B. (Red) Baker, real estate leaser; Gerald J. Dix, executive vice-president of the Sumter Chamber of Commerce; also present were Travis M. Brown Jr., vice-president, and H. B. Mahoney, vicepresident. • The whole town buzzed today over a national beauty crown won last night by Pat Clyburn (Miss Bishopville) at Convention Hall in Asbury Park, N.J. She captured the title of Miss High School of America and it is understood a trip to the World’s Fair is part of the awards to be accorded the winner. The 18-year-old Bishopville beauty also won the title of Miss Congeniality in the contest.

25 YEARS AGO - 1989 April 19–25 Pete Dubay is currently in search of a two-headed monster, and he plans to tackle the beast without so much as a sword. But, Sumter High School’s athletic director doesn’t plan to head into battle entirely unarmed. He’ll take with him a list of priorities, and he’ll be backed up by his principal, superintendent and school board. Dubay is currently searching for a couple of coaches – girls basketball coach Donna Bisom and soccer coach Mike Weathersbee recently announced their resignations. A simple enough task, at first glance, but immensely more intricate when Dubay explains exactly how he goes about it. • Cost projections for a new hospital for Clarendon County will be out of date if county council waits much longer to make a decision to build, according to hospital board chairman Eddie Stuckey. Hospital officials last year assumed construction would begin this summer and the facility would be operational by January 1991. • Louise Lee of Sumter served as page for Sen. Strom Thurmond in his Washington office during the month of December. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Lee and is

1964 - Frankly skeptical of Policeman Willie “Red Man” Connor’s fast ball grip is Coach Cy Harrison of the fireman’s team. Harrison boasts that his team, winner of the annual game three years in a row, could whip the cops with their arms tied behind their backs. Police Coach Jack Scarborough says his team will spring “strategy” and “secret weapons” on the firefighters. a junior at Wilson Hall School. • A budget amendment adopted by the state Senate Friday would give the state’s three biggest universities funding for hazardous waste research, but it is a “smoke screen and delay tactic,” according to Sen. Phil Leventis and other opponents of the GSX landfill. The amendment would increase the fees on the burial of hazardous waste and divide the money between a statewide cleanup fund and a proposed international research foundation, which would include the universities, for waste reduction. • Sumter High track coach Rutledge Dingle isn’t about to predict who will win the 4A state meet Tuesday in Columbia, but he’s pretty sure that whoever does take the title will have to sweat it out right down to the final event. “In a state meet, you never know what might happen,” Dingle said during practice Thursday. “There are so many athletes who are so close to each other in ability. It depends who performs well that particular day and who doesn’t.” • They have the support of an alumni association nine classes strong, an orientation to a variety of issues and a diploma certifying their ability to brainstorm and cooperate with others. And now the four Sumterites who graduated Friday night with the 10th class of Leadership South Carolina are ready to put their new skills to practical use. Graduates were

Richard C. “Dickie” Jones, Lorin Palmer-Fielding, Dr Jeff Aiken and Dr. Lawrence Derthick. • Libby Singleton has gone solo with Miss Libby’s School of Dance at 1089-B Alice Drive. She will be offering classes in jazz, ballet, tap or a combination of the three this summer beginning July 10. Shag lessons, taught by Susan and Jean Hodges, will be held every Monday evening from 8 to 10 p.m. starting May 31. • Sam Hunter and Ruth McCoy are two people who refuse to spend their twilight years in the shade. The two Sumterites are image-breaking older Americans who once again prove you’re only as old as you feel. Hunter is a 65-yearold white, middle class male, and McCoy is a 70-year-old black female, who by her own admission is poor. And both are, as poet Dylan Thomas once suggested, loath to go gently into that good night. Hunter works during the day at his civil engineering job and spends the afternoons in the sweltering heat battering tennis balls. McCoy came out of retirement to take a part-time position at Kroger’s bagging groceries. Whereas he’s assuredly quiet, she’s vocal and outgoing. • Amid the pomp and circumstance of USC Sumter’s May 12 commencement exercises, two employees, Dr. Jordy Johnson, chairman of the Division of Business and Economics, and Flora Gadson, coordinator of

records and registration, were presented framed certificates in recognition of their distinguished service to the university. • Along with the new face in the director’s chair, the Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club can expect new programs and services for Sumter County’s youth this year. Roger Penny is the new executive director of the Boys and Girls Club; he’s been in that spot for only six weeks, but already he has some ideas for the Sumter group. • A Korean industry that could employ as many as 100 people or more has committed to locating in Sumter, according to local officials. Ace Textile America Inc., a dyeing operation, is ready to begin construction on a plant in Sumter but is waiting for the final details of a deal with Sumter County and the City of Sumter to be finalized, according to Charles McCreight, chairman of the Sumter County Development Board. • Furman’s Glenda Hasty came up with her first state title ever as she won the 2A girls 100-meter dash at the State Track Meet at WeemsBaskin Track Monday. • The second run of Sumter Little Theatre’s production of “Ordinary People” – May 26-28 at the Workshop Theatre on Mood Avenue – should stir as much emotion and community interest as last weekend’s offering, said director Reid Beebe. He said he believes that people who attended any of the first four nights (May 18-21) of the Academy Award-winning drama appreciated not only the cast performance but the renovation and remodeling of the theatre that has taken place since last summer. • The Item walked away from the South Carolina Press Association’s Palmetto Advertising Conference this month with a first-place award for a Pappagallo fashion ad. The layout was designed by Item Marketing Consultant Ceil Fisher and staff. • The Veterans Memorial Park, which is expected to be constructed by May 28, 1990, will be named after Gen. George L.

Seeing things more clearly

Eye Care Specialty Center offers wide range of services BY JIM HILLEY (803) 774-1211 jim@theitem.com Sumter area residents now have a new option for eye care services. The Eye Care Specialty Center of Sumter, 528 Broad St., Suite 101, recently opened and offers a broad range of specialists to diagnose, correct and treat vision problems. “We are bringing together three of the premier eye care practices in the state,” said Donna Cohen, marketing representative for Carolina Centers for Sight. “We are complete eye care in one stop, no matter what you need.” Dr. Howard N. Greene, an ophthalmologist who has been practicing in Florence, said he first started coming to Sumter in October 2013 to do cataract surgery in cooperation with the late Dr. Patrick Mardesich. “We are all very sad to see him pass,” Greene said. GREENE “Before he died, he asked that if anything were to happen to him or he was unable to continue, we take care of his patients. We talked to his wife, Naomi Mardesich, and we arranged to take over his charts and take

care of his patients.” Greene has teamed up with doctors from the Palmetto Retina Center and optometrists Troy Alexander and Stephen K. Flowers from Pee Dee Eye Associates to bring the Eye Care Specialty Center to Sumter. “We are dedicated to helping Dr. Mardesich’s patients and others in Sumter to be able to get the best possible care for cataracts, macular degeneration or diabetes,” he said. “The center can offer a multidisciplinary practice all in one location,” said Alexander. “We can solve a lot of problems all in one spot and treat glaucoma, cataracts, retina problems, and we offer primary care.” Dr. W. Lloyd Clark is one of four doctors from Palmetto Retina Center in Columbia who will be extending their practices into Sumter. He said he is excited about seeing patients in the area. “We (PRC) take care of anything at the back of the eye, people with retina problems and with complications from diabetes, which is prevalent in our area,” he said. Clark said the center will have doctors on site five days a week offering specialty and sub-specialty care. Retina practices are usually only found in the bigger cities such as Co-

lumbia, Greenville or Charlotte, Clark said. PRC is one of the largest practices in the state, he said, with offices in Columbia, Florence and Orangeburg. “We will be providing a service that patients need, in a place where they feel comfortable,” he said. Dr. Greene said that he and Dr. Clark, Dr. John F. Payne, Dr. David L. Johnson and Dr. John A. Wells III from PRC are all licensed medical doctors, while Alexander and Flowers have doctor of op-

tometry degrees. “Dr. Flowers has a special interest in pediatric care,” Greene said. “He does vision correction other than surgery.” Greene said Fowler has special training to prescribe eye-training treatments and exercises. “The time to do that is usually during childhood,” Greene said. “That is the time to intervene if they are going to have lazy eye or similar problems.” Greene said that while there are several specialty practices available to ophthalmologists, he has chosen to focus on general ophthalmology. “I am one of the people who has stayed with general ophthalmology,” he said. “I take care of most things that most people have, as opposed to some of the more unusual things. You might have to live in a large city such as Houston or Los Angeles to support that type of practice.” Greene said his practice will include LASIK, PRK, intraocular lens insertion, refractive lens exchange, cataract surgery, diabetic eye care and surgical care of pterygia, eyelids and glaucoma. Eye Care Specialty Center of Sumter will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, call (803) 775-1772 or visit www.eyecarespecialtycenter.com.

Sumter native enters social media realm

FROM STAFF REPORTS

Owners of Sumter Item buy Florida distribution company

Sumter native Louie Jones is throwing his hat in the ring when it comes to social media. The Sumter High School graduate, who now lives in Los Angeles, recently rolled out the beta version of his new website ShopMeet.TV, a business venture Jones said he hopes will grow into the new social TV network. Basically, ShopMeet.TV is a website that brings YouTube and Amazon together. With the slogan “Sell Yourself,” members can create their own channels where they can sell their own products or encourage viewers and subscribers to invest in products already on the market that can be found on Amazon. Jones’ entrepreneurial spirit was first ignited as a kid when would set up a table at the swap meet in Sumter and sell items. He said he often visited The Sumter Item to place ads for yard sales. Jones’ parents also owned a number of businesses while he was growing up, which also gave him an upclose experience with business relations. His father, Jimmy Jones, invested in his new business venture,

stating that he thinks it’s something different that wasn’t an option for the public before. “He has had some pretty good ideas in the past, so I spoke with him and one of the agents about this,” Jimmy Jones said. “I figure it was something people would be interested in because everyone is on the Internet these days. I feel like it’s something that will do well, and it’s something not being offered to the public.” Louie Jones said when he first moved to California after attending school in Atlanta, he was still inspired to be creative. Eventually, visiting QVC sparked an idea that started ShopMeet.TV. JONES “I was inspired by different things, and for this, my experience in Los Angeles inspired the idea,” Louie Jones said. “I started doodling and designing so I first designed furniture and eventually landed in commercials where I was a producer. After visiting QVC with a client, I just thought, ‘What if everyone could do this?’” With that in mind, he came up with the idea of ShopMeet.TV and has been working on it for about five years. The new site links two very

successful sites, where everyday people have become successful in selling themselves, their products and their belongings for which they no longer have use. He said ShopMeet.TV takes out the “sitting on the couch” factor and puts the users in a position to market themselves and grow their own audience to sell their product or products they support. “It’s basically the genesis of a truly social media and television community. It’s interactive social television,” he said. ShopMeet.TV — which is also reaching people in other countries — has more than 50 channels and has recently received a lot of recognition. Jones said he hopes ShopMeet.TV will become the new home-shopping source for a new generation. “We firmly believe we will be the first UGC Social Television Shopping Network providing a means for Youtube stars to cross over to other mass media,” he said. In the meantime, Louie Jones said they’re also working on a mobile app for ShopMeet.TV and moving forward with hopes of changing the way people shop from their homes and hopefully becoming the first UGC Social Television Shopping Network.

BUSINESS BRIEFS The owners of The Sumter Item completed acquisition earlier this month of Publication Distribution Services, a distribution company serving the greater Jacksonville, Florida, area. PDS distributes several newspapers, magazines and other print publications, including some papers already owned by OPC News LLC, which is owned by the three brothers of the Osteen family — Graham, Jack and Kyle. PDS has been in operation for 15 years, since it was started by husband and wife Ralph and Judy Nicewonger. Rob Conwell, the circulation manager of the Ponte Vedra Recorder and Clay (County) Today, will oversee operations of the company. “Since our papers are customers of the company, this will provide a lot of synergy for us, and it’s a good fit for the region,” said Larry Miller, CEO of Osteen Publishing Co.

Locals graduate from FMU Rural Leadership Institute Three locals are among the 14 people from seven counties who recently completed a Rural Leadership Institute offered by Francis Marion University. One, Chris Harvin, is from Clarendon County, and the other two, Jennifer Byrd and Tawanaka Tate, are from Lee County.

A great day of fishing even with little caught I

’ve been waiting all spring for a chance to get down to my little fishing club in the Wateree Swamp. In fact, my lovely bride and I drove down there last Monday evening just to check out how high or low the water level was. Oh, it was beautiful, just the right stage and black in color, just like swamp water should be. I made plans with a good friend from church, Melvin, to go down for Earle some fishing Woodward on Friday. AFIELD & Melvin loves AFLOAT to fish in the upper swamp as much as I do; plans were finalized. Then the rains came on Thursday of last week. According to the WIS TV weather report, the Wateree Swamp had picked up 5 inches of rain from the system — not good. Even if the water didn’t rise that much, my fear was that it would be extremely muddy with that much run off. We talked about it and decided to reschedule for Monday. That didn’t keep Melvin from bad mouthing me at church for rescheduling; of course, I know he was just kidding. Monday rolled around and the weather was still unseasonably cool after the frontal passage and that was a concern, but Melvin and I were going to fish, and we really didn’t care how cool it was. We both like cool weather, but do the fish? We hauled the boat down into the swamp and through the old gate and got our first glimpse of the creek which looked a little high, but not too

bad. First impressions can be wrong. When we pulled around the corner to the boat landing my heart just sank, the water was well out into the “parking lot,” and I had a bad feeling that it wasn’t going to work out well. After some planning, let’s call it plan A, we decided that since the drive was gravel, we’d try to back down far enough to get the boat off of the trailer and fish anyway. Maybe if we ignored the water out in the flats and just fished the high banks, we could catch a fish or two. The truck was two lengths into the water and the back of the boat had yet to touch the surface. It became apparent that this boat was not coming off of this trailer at this boat landing. Time for plan B. Pack’s Landing is only about 30 minutes from the club, so back through the gate we went and headed south. I talked to Jim inside the store at the landing and the news was not encouraging. It seems fish really don’t like cool weather after all. He had been selling crickets to a couple of guys who had been catching a limit of bream every day; on the day we arrived they fished until around noon and had 10 bream. The consensus was that the cold front had just shut everything down. Hey, we were here to fish, and that’s what we were going to do. Every fisherman has his “go to” place and that’s where I headed. I have taken some really pretty bream and Shellcrackers from that spot and figured we could do it again. Besides, it was a long way from the crowds in Coca-Cola slough and behind Hamburger Island. As I usually do, when I’m trying to find fish, I’ll start by

casting a beetle-spin and retrieving it very slowly, it works almost every time. We’d been fishing for about 10 minutes without so much as a bump, when I looked to the left and saw two alligators laying up on a log in the sunshine. They weren’t real big, maybe six-footers, but it was nice to see them. They hightailed it when we got within about 50 yards. To make this as short as possible, we fished for over an hour without a single fish. It was pretty much unbelievable. Both Melvin and I know how to fish, and we were just plain striking out! We finally found some shallower water that had some grass associated with it and picked up our first fish, a redfin of about 4 inches; but it was a fish. Twenty yards on down the tree line, and a scrappy little, hand-size bream fell to the lure; and another just a bit farther down the line, had we finally found the fish? Not! In roughly three hours, Melvin and I — well not trying to be unkind to Melvin — but I, caught about 10 medium-size bream, a couple of redfin and a “Molly” of about 3 inches. If we had been looking to feed ourselves on the river bank, we’d have done alright, but we weren’t going to feed a crowd. All in all, it was a magnificent day, cool, bright sunshine and with great fellowship. While it wasn’t a great day of catching fish, it was a great day of fishing. If any major rain system will just stay away for a couple more days, I think the club will fall back out fairly quickly and stabilize in about a week. Melvin and I will be back, and hopefully hammer the bream, bass and jackfish.

BRAGGIN’ RIGHTS Father-and-son team Ronnie and Tripp Mills of Sumter show their winning catch in the first Sumter Chapter Delta Waterfowl Bass Tournament held May 3 at Pack’s Landing. The two had a total weight of 27.6 pounds. They also caught the big fish of the day. Second place was snagged by William and Dalton Griffith of Sumter, another father-and-son team, and third place went to Ricky Irick and Paul Geddings, also of Sumter.

Eating organic: Plants like it, too BY LEE REICH Associated Press Writer To get the most out of any organic fertilizer, keep in mind how plants feed and how these fertilizers act in the soil. The bulk of a plant’s feeder roots — whether it’s a midget marigold or a mighty oak — lie just beneath the surface, so generally there is no need to dig fertilizer deep into the soil. Anyway, low oxygen levels there would retard microbial growth, which is necessary to unlock nutrients from most organic fertilizers.

TO DIG OR NOT TO DIG An exception to that “no dig” rule is when phosphorus levels are low, as indicated by a soil test or stunted plants that are purplish when young or late to ripen. (Cold soil in spring also can cause a phosphorus deficiency, a temporary one that abates as soon as soil warms and roots start reaching out.) Phosphorus moves very slowly

in the soil, so the only way to get it quickly into the root zone is to mix it into the top 6 to 12 inches of soil. Once a soil is up to snuff with phosphorus, periodic surface applications can trickle down through the soil fast enough to maintain adequate levels throughout the root zone.

TIME YOUR FEEDING When should you apply organic fertilizers? Remember that the nutrients in most of them are initially insoluble and in forms that plants cannot use. Account for the time lag between application and nutrient release by spreading organic fertilizers a few weeks before planting. Even a few months before planting, or way back late last fall. Because soil microorganisms need time, warmth and moisture to release nutrients from organic fertilizers, plants may have to wait to eat in dry soil. Of course, plants grow but

little in dry soil, so their fertilizer needs are less. In this case, watering not only quenches a plant’s thirst, but also makes food available. Occasionally, you may have to tailor your fertilizer to special conditions. For instance, a spell of unseasonably cool weather in spring slows microbial activity. If you must spur plant growth then, apply a light application of some soluble organic fertilizer whose nutrients are quickly available — blood meal or fish emulsion, for example. A quick-acting fertilizer might also be needed when a plant is so hungry that it actually shows symptoms of starvation, such as yellowing, older leaves. Leaves can absorb nutrients directly, and for a really quick effect, you could spray a soluble organic fertilizer such as seaweed extract or fish emulsion right on leaves. Avoid plant injury by reading label directions and following specified rates carefully.

FISHING REPORT Lake Wateree Crappie: Fair. Veteran tournament angler Will Hinson reports that Wateree crappie fishing continues to improve each week, and by now most of the brushpiles in 12-20 feet of water are holding fish - although some are much better than others. Early in the day fish are suspended above the brush, but as the sun come up they will move lower into the brush. Bridge pilings are also producing, particularly in the heat of the day. Because of the shade fish are shallower in 6-11 feet of water - look for the shadiest, darkest spots around the bridges. Fish Stalker jigs in yellow, pearl and Ugly Green are all catching fish, and minnows on a plain hook will also work. The Summer Crappie Wild Cat Trail is starting this weekend, with one tournament on Stumpy Pond, two on Lake Wateree and the first of two summer tournaments this weekend on Fishing Creek. Tournament entry fee is $45.00 per boat, paying three places plus big fish. For more information contact Will at 843-250-5062. Lake Greenwood Largemouth Bass: Fair. Veteran tournament angler Stan Gunter reports that the shallow bite on Lake Greenwood is starting to slow down, although a few fish can still be caught around deeper docks. The best fishing is starting to be found around brushpiles located off deeper points and near channel swings. These fish will take big crankbaits like DD-22s as well as Ol’ Monster worms. In the morning and lasting as long as there is shade around the seawalls fish can be caught against the walls on PopRs, chuggers and other topwater lures. Bass will be feeding on bream shallow in the mornings and floating worms are also a good bet. Lake Monticello Catfish: Fair. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the big fish bite on Lake Monticello is still a little inconsistent, but very soon it should get and stay consistent. Right now the best bet is to fish in shallow water with deep water nearby, such as around humps with a sharp drop into deep water on one side, or off slowly tapering points that all of a sudden drop off. 5-35 feet is

often the most productive depth for all sizes of fish, and often the bigger fish will come from the areas closer to the drops into deeper water. Anchoring in those areas is the best bet right now as it lets the bait sit in front of the fish for longer as they travel up and down across the depth changes. Cut gizzard shad and white perch will generate fewer but bigger bites, while herring will generate more action but lots of nuisance bites from small fish if you are targeting big ones. Lake Murray Bream: Very good. Lake World reports that bream fishing is the best thing on the lake, with some shellcrackers on the beds and some off - but most up shallow. Locate fish using worms on the bottom around islands where clams are washed up on the banks and target very shallow water out to 8 feet. Crickets and worms fished shallow will also catch bluegill. Catfish: Good. Captain Chris Simpson reports that the catfish bite has finally gotten pretty consistent. The best pattern is to anchor on humps and points with cut baits and stagger your baits at different depths, with the ideal depth zone getting shallower later in the day as water temperatures warm. Overall 10-20 feet has been the best depth. Cut herring is still effective but shrimp and dip baits are now working just as well. Santee Cooper System Bream: Fair to good. Captain Steve English reports that everything with bream this time of year is water temperature (and moon phase) dependent, and because water temperatures recently dropped 6-8 degrees the season was delayed. A few shellcracker are up shallow, but the majority of the shellcracker and almost all of the bluegill are out a little deeper. Some fish are holding in ditches and around humps, and others are around brushpiles suspended about 10 feet down in 20 feet of water. Fish should move up to spawn very, very soon. Striped bass: Fair to good. Captain Jim Glenn reports that since the first of May there has been an increase in the number of legal sized fish caught. Productive patterns include trolling, fishing live bait in 40-50 feet of water, and searching for schooling fish.
