LETTER POLICY

another case for term limits

opinions Versus facts

In 2010, Plymouth, Conn., was awarded $430,000 for widening sidewalks and related matters near two schools. This money was a portion of the $612 million Congress authorized for five years of the federal Safe Routes to School program intended to fight childhood obesity by encouraging children to burn calories by walking or biking to school. Really.

Fortunately, Plymouth is near Sharon, Conn., home of the Buckley family, whose members, when their gimlet eyes notice non-sense, become elegantly polemical. So, Congress’ Safe Routes silliness inadvertently did something excellent. It helped to provoke James Buckley to write a slender book that, if heeded, would substantially improve American governance.

Buckley’s late brother Bill, when asked how he found top-ics for three columns a week, said the world irritated him at least that often. James, 91, who has now been constructively annoyed by Congress, was a U.S. senator (1971-77), then an undersecretary of state, then a judge on the nation’s second-most important court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Now, with his “Saving Congress from Itself: Emancipating the States and Empowering Their People,” he continues the family tradition of standing athwart destructive tendencies shouting “Stop!”

Buckley proposes ending federal grants to state and local governments, a category of spending that has ballooned from $24.1 billion in 1970 to an estimated $640.8 billion in fiscal 2015. Devising such spending, Buckley says, absorbs much of Congress’ time, diverting it from “core national re-sponsibilities” and toward concerns that are properly -- he says constitutionally -- the concerns of the states.

Courts, however, have construed the “general welfare” language of the Constitution’s Spending Clause (taxes may be raised “to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare”) as permitting Congress to spend on anything, including to “induce” (the Supreme Court’s word) states to accept federal preferences about state responsibilities. In 1987, the Supreme Court said it is “question[able] whether ‘general welfare’ is a judicially enforceable restriction at all.”

So congressional spending is limited only by Congress’ self-restraint, or that of state and local governments that are free to reject the spending and the administrative costs that come with it, and the federal pre-emption of lower govern-ments’ latitude in setting priorities. By 2010, Buckley says,

the more than 1,100 grant-in-aid programs available to states and/or localities constituted 17 percent of the federal budget, the third largest spending cat-egory after entitlements and defense.

But “free” money can be expensive. Washington used $455 million to induce Connecticut to provide the remaining $112 million needed for an unneeded 9.4-mile bus-way linking New Britain and Hartford, which were already linked by bus service -- and $112 million was diverted from more crucial state

needs. Buckley explains:“Anyone who has ever eaten lunch on an expense account

will understand the perverse incentives generated when a person is given access to funds that may only be used for a particular purpose. ... Organizations, governments included, will act in the same way. When someone else picks up the check, they consume goods and services inefficiently.”

The political class, however, uses grants-in-aid to pur-chase the votes of citizens who see only the large sums of federal money, not the distortions of state and local deci-sions. Having lived long and seen much, Buckley knows how unlikely it is that members of Congress will embrace his idea, absent an ancillary reform: term limits.

During the 19th century, Buckley says, when the Senate actually earned the sobriquet “world’s greatest deliberative body,” fewer than 10 percent of the senators “who served the equivalent of at least one term went on to serve more than two.” Of the three antebellum giants -- Henry Clay, John Calhoun and Daniel Webster -- only Webster served the equivalent of three full terms. “This,” Buckley writes, “sug-gests that a senator is able to make a significant contribution to his country’s welfare within the 12-year limit that I would place on senatorial service.”

Buckley will soon have a term-limits ally less than half his age. Ben Sasse, 42, Nebraska’s senator-elect, plans to intro-duce a constitutional amendment limiting House and Senate members to four and two terms, respectively. Will legislators addicted to purchasing incumbency with grants-in-aid sub-mit to the states for ratification an amendment that would limit their tenure in office? State legislatures are responsive to public support for term limits, and are composed of politi-cians eager to open federal offices to their ascent.

Congress can be bludgeoned by a public aroused on be-half of term limits. And when purged of careerism, Congress can cure its addiction to grants-in-aid and other bad habits.

Everyone seems to have an opinion about the tragic events in Ferguson, Missouri. But, as Daniel Patrick Moyni-han used to say, “You’re entitled to your own opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts.”

Soon after the shooting death of Michael Brown, this 285-pound young man was depicted as a “gentle giant.” But, after a video was leaked, showing him bullying the owner of a store from which he had stolen some merchandise, Attor-ney General Eric Holder expressed displeasure that the video was leaked. In other words, to Holder the truth was offensive, but the lie it exposed was not.

Many people who claimed to have been eyewitnesses to the fatal shooting gave opposite accounts of what hap-pened. Some even gave accounts that contradicted what they themselves had said earlier.

Fortunately, the grand jury did not have to rely on such statements, though some in the media seemed to. What the grand jury had, that the rest of us did not have until the grand jury’s decision was announced, was a set of physical facts that told a story that was independent of what anybody said.

Three different medical forensic experts — one represent-ing Michael Brown’s parents — examined the physical facts. These facts included the autopsy results, Michael Brown’s DNA on the door of the police car and on the policeman’s gun, photographs of the bruised and swollen face of police-man Darren Wilson and the pattern of blood stains on the street where Brown was shot.

This physical evidence was hard to square with the loudly proclaimed assertions that Brown was shot in the back, or was shot with his hands up, while trying to surrender. But it was consistent with the policeman’s testimony.

Moreover, the physical facts were consistent with what a number of black witnesses said under oath, despite express-ing fears for their own safety for contradicting what those in the rampaging mobs were saying.

The riots, looting and setting things on fire that some in the media are treating as reactions to the grand jury’s decision not to indict the policeman, actually began long before the grand jury had begun its investigation, much less announced any decision.

Why some people insist on believing whatever they want to believe is a question that is hard to answer.

But a more important question is: What are the consequences to be expected from an orgy of anarchy that started in Ferguson, Missouri and has spread around the country?

The first victims of the mob rampages in Ferguson have been people who had noth-ing to do with Michael Brown or the police. These include people — many of them black or members of other minorities — who have seen the businesses they worked to build

destroyed, perhaps never to be revived.But these are only the first victims. If the history of other

communities ravaged by riots in years past is any indication, there are blacks yet unborn who will be paying the price of these riots for years to come.

Sometimes it is a particular neighborhood that never re-covers, and sometimes it is a whole city. Detroit is a classic example. It had the worst riot of the 1960s, with 43 deaths — 33 of them black people. Businesses left Detroit, taking with them jobs and taxes that were very much needed to keep the city viable. Middle class people — both black and white — also fled.

Harlem was one of many ghettos across the country that have still not recovered from the riots of the 1960s. In later years, a niece of mine, who had grown up in the same Harlem tenement where I grew up years earlier, bitterly complained about how few stores and other businesses there were in the neighborhood.

There were plenty of stores in that same neighborhood when I was growing up, as well as a dentist, a pharmacist and an optician, all less than a block away. But that was before the neighborhood was swept by riots.

Who benefits from the Ferguson riots? The biggest ben-eficiaries are politicians and racial demagogues. In Detroit, Mayor Coleman Young was one of many political dema-gogues who were able to ensure their own reelection, using rhetoric and policies that drove away people who provided jobs and taxes, but who were likely to vote against him if they stayed. Such demagogues thrived as Detroit became a wasteland.

Hogs’ 1964

season one fans

won’t soon forgetFor the Arkansas Razorbacks, the 1963 season had

been a disappointment, with the team ending with a 5-5 record. Afterward, Coach Frank Broyles and the team began plotting a comeback for next season, and the team promised -- and delivered -- what would be an unforgettable year.

As fall 1964 approached, the Associated Press writer’s poll offered little respect for the new Razorbacks squad. The University of Mississippi was ranked first, followed by Oklahoma State University. Arkansas was ranked eighth.

The Razorbacks won the first game in September against Oklahoma State, 14-10. The next week, the Razorbacks rallied from a 14-0 deficit to overtake the University of Tulsa. Arkansas would net six interceptions against Texas Christian and force six turnovers from Baylor in their next two wins. By the fourth week of the season, the team was only ranked ninth nationally in spite of a perfect record. But a hard-fought 14-13 win over the University of Texas the next week, which included a stunning 81-yard punt return touchdown by Ken Hatfield, catapulted the team to fourth in the AP poll.

The Razorbacks would shut out their opponents in the next five games, sending them into the bowl season ranked second in the nation. The defense was unstoppable, allowing the fewest points of any team and keeping their opponents to only 180 yards per game. Hatfield, a future Razorbacks coach, boasted 518 yards for punt returns, the best in the country. Linebacker Ronnie Caveness would be named to the All-American team.

On January 1, 1965, Arkansas met the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers at the Cotton Bowl. After a Razorbacks field goal in the first quarter, the Cornhuskers took a 7-3 lead in the second quarter and hold it into the fourth quarter. With only minutes left, Quarterback Frank Marshall pushed the Razorbacks 80 yards downfield. Bobby Burnett then plowed through the Cornhuskers defense for the last three yards needed for the touchdown. Arkansas held on and won, 10-7.

AP writers, however, were unimpressed. Instead of the undefeated Cotton Bowl champions, the national championship was awarded by sportswriters to the University of Alabama, who would lose the Orange Bowl to the Texas Longhorns. Others, however, named Arkansas the national champions, and the Helms Athletic Foundation, known for selecting the All-American Teams, awarded Arkansas its Grantland Rice Trophy as the nation’s top squad. The Football Writers Association of America also named the Razorbacks the top team of 1964.

The 1964 season was part of an incredible 22-game winning streak by the Razorbacks. The 1965 squad nearly repeated the 1964 season with a perfect 10-0 regular season, narrowly losing to Louisiana State in the 1966 Cotton Bowl.

In the 1960s, no national championship game existed. Reporters carried a lot of weight with their choices of teams based on their votes in Associated Press and United Press International polls. Because of the embarrassment of writers trying to name the Crimson Tide the champions in spite of their loss, future polls would not name a national winner until after the bowl games had been played. But an official national championship game would not come along until the College Football Playoff was announced for January 2015.

The legendary 1964 season would leave a lasting legacy in football. The 1964 team produced two NFL coaches who would go on to lead teams to three Super Bowl wins in the 1990s, Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer, and also include future Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Coach Broyles would win two more bowl games until he stepped down as head coach in 1976 and served as Arkansas athletic director until 2007.

TOLLETTE - The Tollette town council passed a much leaner budget for the town than in recent years during their regular monthly meet-ing Monday evening.

The budget, which proj-ects a total income for the town of only $201,026.64, includes no pay increases or additions to maintenance budgets, and is projected to carry forward to the fol-lowing year much less fund-ing. During a presentation by town recorder/treasur-er Dorothy Walker, it was stressed repeatedly that the town has few sources of revenue, depending heavily on state turnback monies and the monthly billing for water, sewer and sanitation services to just over 100 residences. She pointed out that there are some areas in which the town could pursue other sources of revenue, such as request-ing utilities operating in the town to pay franchise fees - something from which other municipalities make some income. There was also dis-cussion of possibly pursuing efficiency measures such as installing solar panels and wind turbines on municipal buildings to cut utility costs, which make up a significant portion of the budget.

The final budget, which is seven and a half percent smaller than last year’s, passed unanimously after being read, though council members mentioned the need for budget amend-ments to be passed as the year progresses even before the meeting ended.

Another major financial factor discussed during the meeting regarded the repair being undertaken to the town’s garbage truck and the costs for those repairs, with Walker reporting that the town will have the needed funding secured to pay for repairs in two weeks’ time. The council debated the need

to reduce the number of days that the truck is in service to balance the repair cost against operations costs in order to not increase the rate that residents pay for service. Council member James Porter suggested that the Tuesday pickup be discontinued after the start of the new year in or-der to keep the monthly rate at $10 per residence, leaving trash pickup on Friday of each week. The council passed the measure, with members say-ing that they hoped that the community understands the budget constraints requir-ing the reduction in days of service.

The third major issue impacting the operation of the town discussed during the meeting was a request by council member Sharonda Miller to change the coun-cil’s meeting time to a 6:15 p.m. start on the first Tues-day of each month rather than the current 7 p.m. on the first Monday time. She explained that it would be more convenient to her work schedule. The other council members found no objec-tion, and adopted the new meeting time to start with the January meeting.

The remainder of the

council meeting saw discus-sion of the structure across the street from the town hall, which had been recom-mended for refurbishment by council members early this year - though interest seemed to wane as year progressed. Outgoing coun-cil member James Turner spoke about the need to see the structure used, and suggested that some of the items currently being stored there could be moved to locations where they would be more accessible. Chester Cheatham, who is active with the Tollette Homecom-ing committee as well as being a council member, suggested that the Home-coming organization might be able to help refurbish the rest rooms in that structure, but did not have firm figures on what is needed or what could be contributed. Miller, and also council member Brenda Porter, asked if plans to develop the structure into a combination community shelter and activities center were still wanted, to which other council members agreed. Ultimately though, no action was taken by the council after discussion of the building.

ARKADELPHIA - Ouachita Baptist University’s School of Fine Arts will host “Natu-ral Beauty,” an art exhibit by seniors Molly Freel and Katie Meador, in Hammons Art Gallery Dec. 4-12. The ex-

hibit is free and open to the public. A reception also will be held in Hammons Gallery at 4:30 p.m. on Dec. 4.

Showcasing their work together, Freel, a graphic design and mass commu-

nications major from Nash-ville, and Meador, a graphic design major from Spring Branch, Texas, will exhibit a culmination of work they have created since arriving at Ouachita. The work pre-sented will include branding ideas, illustration pieces, photography, logos, invita-tion designs and other prod-ucts.

“I think that things in life should be appreciated,” said Freel, crediting much of her inspiration to nature. “God put so much detail into na-ture. Things look so simple at first, but when you look at it more you find so much detail. That’s what I strive to do with my artwork: keep things simple and natural yet artistic and detailed.”

On the other hand, Meador said she receives most of her inspiration from store window displays that she considers true works of art, such as those from An-thropologie and Kate Spade.

Utilizing bright colors and “things that pop,” Meador said, “My artwork tends to always have something to do with fashion and have an edge to it. Most of my work consists of mixing unex-pected colors and patterns.

“When people see a final piece that I have done, I want them to feel a sense of unconventional fun and hap-piness,” she added.

“I am so excited to see all of my work up on a wall,” Freel said. “I did not origi-nally plan to study graphic design, but after one class I was hooked. I love what I do and can’t wait to do it for the rest of my life.”

Regular gallery hours for the exhibit are 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, contact the School of Fine Arts at (870) 245-5129.

NASHVILLE - There have been some changes to the private pesticide applicator training provided by the Cooperative Exten-sion Service.

In the last several years there have been some funding restrictions by the Environ-mental Protection Agency (EPA) for the pesticide applicator training program. EPA has indicated the reductions will continue for the foreseeable future and further reductions are possible. Because of this, the Coopera-tive Extension Service has started charging private applicators for the certification/re-certification training required to obtain a pesticide applicators license.

* All applicator training sessions provided by the Cooperative Extension Service will cost $10/person payable at the door on the day of the training.

* This new certification registration fee does not affect the price you pay the Arkan-sas State Plant Board for you license. You will still need to fill out the Plant Board’s license application and include the appropriate fee.

* Please remember that in most cases you will need the training only once every

5 years. The Plant Board’s new regulations say

an applicator must have been certified in the past 12 months in order to get a 5-year license. If you still have some years left on your certification period, you can still get a 1-year license without attending a re-certifi-cation session this year. If you are unsure of how much time you have left on your certi-fication, please contact Mike Thompson at the Plant Board. The phone number is (501) 225-1598.

You can attend any training in the state. Trainings in our area are posted below. If you have any questions, please give me a call at the Extension Office at 870-845-7517. All Howard County locations will be in the newspapers and on the local radio stations.

* Tuesday, December 9, 2014 Hempstead County SWERC 6:00 p.m.

* Thursday, December 11, 2014- Howard County-Dierks Elementary School Cafeteria 5:30 p.m.

* Thursday, January 8, 2015- Little River County Extension Office-CCCUA Ashdown 6:00p.m.

The Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service is an equal opportunity/equal ac-cess/affirmative action institution.

The holidays bring extra challenges when it comes to buying gifts for seniors on your list.

For those loved ones who may be bedridden or in an assisted living facility, we want to give them gifts they can use.

Devotion is the great-est gift you can give. One of the best gifts to give is your time. Just go and spend some time visiting with them.

According to a survey conducted by “Aging Ar-kansas” on what to give an older loved one for Christ-mas, here are some top choices requested from seniors themselves.

* A large-print calen-dar that highlighted family members’ birthdays and other important dates.

* A gift certificate to a grocery store or pharmacy.

* A cordless phone or cell phone.

* A box of assorted greeting cards and post-age stamps. Assortment should include birthday, sympathy, get well, etc.

* A new family portrait. Present it in a frame so it is ready to display.

* A new easy chair or recliner.

* New, cozy warm slip-pers.

* Large numbered televi-sion remote control.

If your loved one is still at home and just needs some help with minor household tasks, here are some suggestions:

* Rearrange kitchen cab-inets, putting the most-used items on the lower shelves

and in easily reached draw-ers. Be sure to involve the person living in the home so they will know where items are located.

* Do some minor home repairs. Replace any light bulbs, fix any drips, glue anything broken, paint a room if needed, replace torn screens and be there when repair people come. It is sad, but sometimes older people can be taken advantage of. One of the nice things about living in a small town is the honesty of the local businesses. Still, it is a good idea to be on hand to answer any questions about repairs.

* If you have someone who is caring for some-one else in the home, plan a shopping trip with the caregiver to give them a break. Have someone else stay with the home bound person.

Some other helpful pres-ents may be:

* Household aids such as nightlights to light the path to the bathroom, safe-ty latches for cupboards, a telephone answering ma-chine.

* Bathroom enhance-ments such as a raised toilet seat with handrails, a shower bench with hand-rails and backrest or a hand-held shower spray. Make plans to install them

yourself or have them in-stalled.

* If the person is in a nursing home or assisted living facility, a door deco-ration can help raise the spirits of the person staying there. It also can help them recognize their room.

* Warm washable socks or leg warmers are great gifts.

* Make or purchase a tote bag to hook on a wheel-chair or walker.

* A large face clock with easy-to-read numerals, a large easy-to-read calendar, a talking alarm clock.

* Audio tapes or CD’s with their favorite music or speaker. Many older adults enjoy listening to their hometown church pastor. Consider having the ser-mons taped for the senior to listen to at a later date.

* Extra lighting of all kinds is always welcome, such as desk lamps, flash-lights, night lights, outdoor lighting. Look for products that can be recharged rath-er than uses batteries.

* Gardening tools with large, soft grips; a wheeled garden scoot or padded kneeler. There a lots of great gardening tools for older people or people with disabilities.

* Kitchen tools that have

large handles, etc. for peo-ple with arthritis or limited mobility that make it hard to grip items.

Remember, the gift of love is the greatest gift of all. For more ideas on gifts to help care for someone you love or for the person who has everything, con-tact the Howard County Extension Office at 870-845-7517 or check out our web-site at www.uaex.edu and click on Health and Living, then Aging. The Howard County Extension Office is located on the second floor of the courthouse.

Recipe of the Week

The holidays are the only time of year for fresh cranberries at our local gro-cery stores. Consider buy-ing several bags and put-ting in the freezer to enjoy all year long. Cranberries are high in vitamin C, which helps us to fight infections like the common cold. Here is a great way to enjoy fresh or frozen cranberries.

Deep Dish Apple Cran-berry Pie

4 apples, peeled, cored and sliced

2 ½ cups cranberries (fresh or frozen)

¾ cup sugar¼ cup all-purpose flour1 teaspoon apple pie

spice1 ready-to-bake pie crust Stir all ingredients to-

gether, except pie crust, in a medium sized mixing bowl and place in a 10-inch deep dish pie pan. Place pie crust on top of the pie. Cut 3 to 4 slits to allow the steam to escape. Bake at

375 degrees for about an hour. Serve warm. Refriger-ate any leftovers.

Tony Fatherree operates an excavator during the demolition of the burned portion of the Southwest’s Ivan Smith Furniture building in Nashville Tuesday afternoon. The structure, which caught fire Sept. 12, suffered heaviest damage to the older, southernmost portion of the building. Demolition work on that portion of the building stopped traffic along Shepherd St. all that evening and the next day, and also reduced Main St. to a single lane for a portion of a city block over the course of several hours.

NASHVILLE - City police are investigating a commer-cial burglary that occurred over the Thanksgiving week-end.

Around 12:15 Sunday morning, officers were dis-patched to Jeanie’s Fine Jewelry at 102 South Main. Upon arrival, officer Aaron Quick said he found a win-

dow pane in the front of the store broken out.

A jewelry case, located just inside the front of the store, had also been broken into.

Store personnel are still attempting to assess how much jewelry was taken in the theft.

NASHVILLE - The sound of cars began to fill the air Friday afternoon as test and tune began for the Thanks-giving Shootout races at Diamond Park Speedway.

Over 70 cars participated in Friday night’s event and 130 showed for Saturday’s races. The races featured modlites, factory, street, pure and modified stock divisions.

Track promoter Joe Hoen gave an estimate of 1,000 vistors to the track Saturday. He said that there were over 500 people in the pits alone and that drivers had arrived from six different states for the race, with the farthest traveling from Ohio.

Diamond Park Speedway

Dierks’s Kenzie Stokes passes amid a field of Umpire defenders Tuesday as the Lady Outlaws roll to a 62-19 win over the visiting Lady Wildcats.

KateLyn CoffMan

Staff Writer

DIERKS – The Dierks Outlaws and Lady Outlaws basketball teams were the victors over the opposing Umpire Wildcats and Lady Wildcats during Tuesday night’s contests. The Outlaws triumphed 68-45 and the Lady Outlaws 62-19.

Umpire led for the first half of the boys’ game, and opened up the game by scoring the first point. Cameron Brewer earned Dierks’s first points later on with a three-point shot, only to be matched by the Wildcats, who followed with a succession of points. Brady Strasner scored the final two points for the Outlaws in the first quarter of the game.

The Outlaws were still trailing in the second quarter as they worked their totals up two points at a time with scoring by Josh Welch, Andy Chin and four two point shots in a row completed by Lane Woodruff. Aaron Kesterson and Jake Green scored a point each to round out the conclusion of the period. The score was 26-22, with Umpire leading at the end of the first half.

The Outlaws came back strong in the second half, scoring 46 points to Umpire’s 19.

Tyler Kesterson was the first to score during the third quarter, completing a two pointer. Layne McWhorter followed suit, and Wood-ruff earned a point afterwards. McWhorter then scored two more points. Strasner earned four points for the team in two plays. Scoring then went back and forth between Brewer and Woodruff, who scored six points apiece.

Woodruff opened up the final quarter with a two-point shot. Mc-Whorter sunk a free throw then Stras-ner, Green and Woodruff nabbed one two-pointer a piece. Green then earned a point for completing a free throw and Strasner and Tyler Kester-son shot for two points each. Tyler Kesterson then successfully shot a free throw. Morrow scored ended the scoring with a two point shot.

This brought about the final 68-45 score.

The top scorer for the game was Woodruff, who put up 21 of the Outlaws’ points. He was followed closely by Strasner who scored 12. Brewer and Green earned a total of six and McWhorter and Tyler Kes-terson each scored a total of five of the team’s points. Chin was next in the scoring range with four points. A total of two points each was scored by Aaron Kesterson, Welch and Morrow.

The Lady Outlaws only permit-ted the Lady Wildcats three points in the opening quarter while they scored 23. Blair Garner, Stacey Carter, Kaydra Ayers and Katelynd Fennell each made two-pointers. Walston completed four two-point shots and three free throws. Kenzie Stokes score four points with two individual plays, and Isabel Fox and Emily Whisenhunt made one free throw a piece.

Garner and Walston each scored three pointers during the next period

of the game. Fox and Kompkoff also contributed three points through the use of two pointers and free throws. Carter scored a total of five by sink-ing a three and going two for two on free throws.

The second half consisted of three points being scored by Walston, who shot a two pointer and a free throw. Two pointers were also scored by Ayers and Fitzsimmons. Woodruff made two free throws and Carter completed one.

The Lady Outlaws’ final period scoring was comprised of two point shots by Garner, Charlotte Cothren and Erin Talman along with a two pointer and two free throws by Mea-gan Brecheisen.

Walston contributed the most points for her team, a total of 17. Carter put up nine and Garner seven. Brecheisen, Fox, Ayers, Fennell and Stokes scored a total of four points throughout the game. Kompkoff scored three, and Cothren and Tol-man scored two. Martin and Whisen-hunt each contributed a point.

CADDO HILLS - The Min-eral Springs senior basket-ball squads dominated in games against the Indians and Lady Indians in Caddo Hills Tuesday evening.

In the ladies’ matchup, the Lady Hornets sprang to an early lead with a fierce display from two stars from the Mineral Springs squad, with Chasitee Newton put-ting in a pair of two-point-ers and a three in the first quarter, while Olivia Coulter dropped a quartet of neat two-pointers. The Lady Indi-ans were unable to keep up from the start, only posting six points to the Lady Hor-nets’ 15.

In the second period, the Mineral Springs team extended their lead, with Coulter dropping a pair of long shots, and Rhey Stewart and Dasia Esters each put-ting posting two-pointers. This put the score 25-13 go-ing into the half.

After the break, the Cad-do Hills squad showed more pep, matching the Lady Hor-nets for points in the third even as Briana Sanders, Arianna Johnson and Coul-ter put up two-pointers and Sanders and Stewart each made a single free throw.

The Lady Indians man-aged to push it the other way in the final quarter, putting up 14 points - mainly through successful free throws. Scor-ing on the Mineral Springs side was also accounted for by free throws, with Newton making two of two attempts and Coulter sinking half of

her eight attempts. Johnson also put up a two-pointer, completing the scoring for the game, ending up Mineral Springs 41-35 final.

Boys played a higher scor-ing game, but did not lead off as the girls had. In the begin-ning quarter, the Hornets spread scoring around with Tyler Villegas and Darius Turner each bringing in out-side the line shots, J’Von Atkins, Keshaun Davis and Fred Robinson posting a two pointer a piece, and Rob-inson also sinking a single free throw for a combined 13 points to the Indians’ 15. The boys more than made up for it in the second quar-ter with Davis, Robinson, Tre’ Lacy, Anton Coulter, and Levin Thornton putting up a two-pointer each, and sophomore Cameron Per-kins jamming in a quartet of twos, leaving the score 31-24 Mineral Springs leading into the break.

After the break, things slowed down for the Hor-nets, with Turner and Per-kins each dropping one from outside the line, while Lacy and Coulter contributed two pointers, making eight for the team during the third while the Indians put up 10. The final stanza saw a return to intensity for the Mineral Springs squad, with Turner and Atkins sinking three pointers, Robinson and Shemar Johnson post-ing short-court shots, and Turner and Perkins making a free throw each and Coulter making two of two, doubling the points the Indians made. Final score Mineral Springs 55-41.

Looking Beyond

the SurfaceWe see what others can’t.

You may see the color of a woman’s hair, whether she’s

wearing a suit or workout clothes and how many kids she

has. But at Howard Memorial Hospital, we can see what

others can’t—the cancer that may be growing in one of

her breasts.

Our new digital mammography machine captures the

highest quality images and detects subtle changes in

breast tissue, improving accuracy and enhancing our

ability to provide an early diagnosis.

One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast

cancer. So take the steps to catch it early with

Howard Memorial Hospital.

For more information on digital mammography or how to schedule

an exam, call 870-845-8156.

outlaws, Hornets honoredHOWARD COUNTY - Post-season football

honors have been doled out to participants in both of the county’s 2A schools, with 10 athletes receiving all conference honors and seven given honorable mentions. Neither school produced an athlete to an all-state list.

At Mineral Springs, defensive standouts Markeies Moore, Shemar Johnson and Ter-rell Stewart were named to the all-conference list in addition to offensive leaders Cameron Lacy and Keon Hendrix.

Moore led the team with 77 tackles on the year, 12 of which were for a loss, in addition to contributing an interception while playing at linebacker. Johnson, meanwhile, recorded 64 stops, including six for a loss, while Stew-art had 62, of which seven were for a loss.

Hendrix was a workhorse on offense, tak-ing 79 carries 784 yards and seven catches for an additional 107. He also returned three

kickoffs for touchdowns, scoring a total of 13 times during the 2014 season, while picking up 39 tackles, two interceptions and a sack on defense.

Lacy finished the season with six total scores after rushing for 123 yards on 48 attempts and amassing 159 yards with 17 catches. He also recorded 49 tackles and one interception while playing defense.

Hornets receiving honorable mentions were J’Von Atkins, Robert Ware and James Europe.

At Dierks, Layne McWhorter, Caleb Dunn, Trendin McKinney, Tyler Kesterson and Jake Green made the all-conference list. Season statistical information was not available for the players at press time.

The Outlaws’ honorable mentions in-cluded Jake Eudy, Jalen Key, Derek Hill and Cale Adams.
