Among the events held to commemorate 50 years of in-tegration at Ole Miss, Lt. Hen-ry Gallagher retold the story from his viewpoint as James Meredith’s personal security guard.
“We thought we were going on a routine exercise,” Galla-gher said.
“Two army units that arrived on campus to confront the mob had prior knowledge of what they were going into; at the time, our mission was not told.”
Gallagher said the Justice Department wanted Meredith to be free to come and go
across the campus as a student. To coincide with Meredith’s class schedule, Gallagher po-sitioned his unit 30 seconds apart from Meredith.
“Throughout the whole time I was there, my only concern was that someone could bring harm with a rifle,” he said. “All you needed was a deer rifle and a scope and you could take him out within 200 yards.”
After witnessing the violence of the riots from the mob, pro-testers and students, Gallagher said it was troubling to see chil-dren ages 12, 13 and 14 hurling bricks and cinder blocks at his patrol vehicle.
“When I received my assign-
Oxford police are never too far away to make sure students and Oxonians are abiding by the law on the Square, according to Oxford Police Chief Mike Martin.
“The main thing that gets you in trouble is getting intoxicated and causing a scene,” he said.
Martin said an average of 15 people are arrested on the Square each weekend, and most arrests involve
people driving while intoxi-cated, being loud, starting a fight or drinking underage.
All bars on the Square are subject to random Al-coholic Beverage Control (ABC) sweeps. The ABC monitors bars to catch un-derage drinking. If caught, the consequences could be a fine up to $500, 30 days of community service, a 90-day suspension of his or her driver’s license or a strike on a university account if he or she is a student.
The University of Mis-
sissippi’s Code of Conduct states that the two-strike pol-icy is formally entitled Mini-mum Sanctions for Alcohol and Other Drug Violations. This policy deals with drug and alcohol violations com-mitted by students at Ole Miss.
Students found in viola-tion of a drug or alcohol offense will be put on two-strike probation for a period of time and will receive their first strike at that time. Any

The ‘Total Recall’ of Arnold
What do you do when you get caught publicly in the nas-ty act of adultery and father a child who’s born less than a week after you and your wife’s son is born?
You write your autobiogra-phy, of course. And you begin the media tour promoting the shocking tell-all that reveals all your deep, dark secrets. Well, if you’re Arnold Schwar-zenegger you do, anyway.
The “60 Minutes” interview with the former bodybuilder, former governor of Califor-nia, former box-office mega-star and estranged husband of Maria Shriver — that’s a whole lot of formers and one es-tranged, no wonder he wrote a book — aired Sunday night,
with Lesley Stahl leading him down the path of truth.
There are differing reports on why and how the inter-view was conducted. Accord-ing to New York Daily News, Shriver was angered by the interview; in fact, that was the paper’s headline. It said she was angered because her side wasn’t represented. The ar-ticle itself, however, reported that she was approached to comment on the piece after the interview had been shot and largely edited, with little room for her to actually give her opinion.
In the scheme of things, little room is better than no room. You can’t really fault “60 Minutes”; she did have an opportunity to blast her less-than-perfect husband right out of the water, albeit, maybe only time for a small cannon and one short reload, but the chance was there.
Come on, Maria, get with the program. Take your shots where you can; after 25 years
with Arnold, you deserved it. In the same NY Daily report, she did go out on a limb and say that the only reason he was assuaging his conscience openly was due to the fact that PR demanded it; he had to get back in the public’s good graces somehow.
And as far as Stahl hard-nosing him and pinning him down about what he had done, the same article said that according to a “source,” Stahl just fawned all over him.
Let’s hope the “source” was actually there and not just speculating; the after-inter-view clips that aired on the news showed a pretty tough Stahl beating down on him. Of course, “60 Minutes” could have handpicked its clips, and probably did, but the fact re-mains that she did ask him some very pointed questions.
In a report from CNN, other delicate discrepancies from Schwarzenegger’s life were brought up, such as the fact that he publicly opposed
same-sex marriage in Califor-nia but performed two cer-emonies for same-sex couples while he was in office.
CNN also reported that, ac-cording to Schwarzenegger, his return to the silver screen was not prompted by the de-sire to earn more money, al-though he has “The Expend-ables 2” movie and a slew of new projects coming up in the next few years. Of course, he didn’t give an alternative rea-son either, though he made a slight mention of reflection on his many “screw-ups.”
And when you’re Arnold Schwarzenegger, a slight re-flection could mean that your “True Lies” can add up to true dollars quickly.
Come on, Terminator; when you said, “I’ll be back,” we had no idea you meant like this.

opInIonOPINION | 3 OcTOBER 2012 | THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN | PAGE 3
As the election looms on the horizon, tax policy is an important subject for all sides. President Obama has consis-tently argued for raising the taxes on the rich, calling for them to pay their “fair share.” In a previous column of mine, I discussed Obama’s faulty reasoning in claiming that the rich do not already pay their fair share.
In that column, I discussed the ideology of the issue using
a few statistics, whereas for this column, I will focus on the statistics, primarily those from the Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan research group.
A recently released report from the Tax Foundation found that while the aver-age tax rate for all filers was 11 percent for the 2010 filing year, that number does not come close to telling the full story. It found that the top 1 percent pays an average effec-tive rate of 24 percent, with the bottom 99 percent at an average rate of 8.4 percent, according to the Internal Rev-enue Service (IRS) data.
Furthermore, IRS data shows that those who earn more than $100,000 a year in Adjusted Gross Income
(AGI) earn 50 percent of to-tal income. However, they pay 87 percent of federal tax revenue. This means that the share of those earning less than $100,000 in AGI, which accounts for 50 percent of to-tal income, is only 13 percent.
Let me repeat: Those earn-ing one half of income pay al-most seven times as much as those earning the other half of income.
When adjusted for brack-ets, the top 1 percent, roughly 1.4 million Americans, held a higher share of the federal in-come tax burden than the en-tire bottom 90 percent — 120 million Americans — com-bined.
After reading those num-bers, no one in their right
mind would continue arguing that the rich do not pay their fair share. However, that is what Obama is continuing to do. He is trying to win the up-coming election using deceit and fallacious catchphrases.
Unfortunately, these tactics are working, as a majority of Americans are beginning to grumble about the rich. It does not help that taxes in America are a very complicat-ed issue, one that most Ameri-cans do not understand. Thus, Obama is playing on the mis-understandings of the general populace to strengthen his electorate.
Who wants a president who would rather focus on deceiv-ing the public than on enlight-ening them about the facts of
tax rates and burdens?Interestingly, Obama sup-
porters attacked Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney for not releasing his tax information, yet they do not call for Warren Buffett to release his full returns.
The deceitfulness and hy-pocrisy of Obama and his supporters go far beyond the normal politics that play out in elections, yet he continues to garner support.
It is time for Americans to pay attention to the data and facts rather than the gold-en lies spun from Obama’s mouth and campaign.

With more than 700 inter-national students on campus, only 100 of them have found the organization that offers them a place to ease their transition into America.
The International Student Organization (ISO) at The University of Mississippi gives temporary and perma-nent international students a chance to meet people with whom they can identify while they are in America.
The organization has mem-bers from 80 different coun-tries.
“The main purpose of our organization is to get inter-national students together to form a viable community, where they can interact and feel comfortable in the atmo-sphere even though they are in a foreign country,” said Amir Aziz, sophomore vice president of programming of ISO.
The ISO holds general as-sembly meetings and invites
its members to join and hear about what is happening in the international community.
“We try to call general as-sembly meetings once a month, and we ask students to come give their ideas or tell us their problems,” said Ibrahim Huda, sophomore vice president of communi-
cation. ISO will also host activities
this semester in which inter-national students can partici-pate.
This Saturday, they will have a tent in the Grove for new members to socialize with each other, and on Fri-day, Oct. 12, the organization
will have a float for its mem-bers to ride on during the homecoming parade.
The biggest event planned by ISO is WorldFest, which will likely be held in the Grove on Sunday, Nov. 11. WorldFest “is kind of a carni-val type of event,” Huda said.
“It’s going to be a bunch
of international cultures and activities together, with dif-ferent kinds of booths (that have) many different types of foods, traditional dances or traditional costumes,” junior President Harsh Kandoi said.
ISO is asking the Oxford community to contact them if they are interested in being part of the event. They will provide stalls for vendors who have some sort of inter-national affiliation.
One challenge for the or-ganization has been reaching out to the international com-munity and making its pres-ence known on campus. ISO has contacted the university asking for email addresses of international students but has not yet been granted access to that information, accord-ing to Kandoi.
ISO is asking international students to reach out through their Facebook group, Ole Miss ISO, or website, http://dos.orgsync.com/org/iso/home, so that they can keep students up to date on their campus involvement.

ment to protect Mr. Meredith, I knew we were not going in to referee something, to um-pire something or to be in the middle of the emotion and anger, but to be on one side,” Gallagher said.
Arthur Meredith, brother of James Meredith, also attend-ed the event and said he be-lieved in the future and found the commemoration “unim-pressive.”
“I think you’re celebrating something that happened in the past, which means that you want to keep the people’s mind in the past,” Meredith said. “Fifty years from now, where will we be?”
In conjunction with his speech on Monday, Gallagher held a book signing on Tues-day night at Off Square Books for his book entitled “James Meredith and the Ole Miss Riot: A Soldier’s Story.”
With about 30 spectators in attendance, Gallagher spoke
on strong points.“When I saw the brigadier
general, I thought my role would be over,” Gallagher said. “The general looked at me, realizing I was a part of the battalion and not the ma-jor, he said, ‘Lieutenant, you are to deliver a platoon of sol-diers to the Lyceum.’”
Gallagher noted in the book that he had no idea what the Lyceum was, let alone where it was located.
“As the ordeal was described
to me hours before, two men have been reported killed and 40 marshals have been injured,” he said. “Bring am-munition and tear gas, you’re going into a bad situation.”
In his book, Gallagher de-scribed Meredith as the most courageous person he ever met.
“For a man to do that, you had to have courage,” he said. “There were personality issues about his attitude to-wards the press or people in
authority, it didn’t matter,” he said. “(Stripped) down, it was just pure, unadulterated cour-age.”
Gallagher also said that he didn’t have much of a rela-tionship with Meredith. He described Meredith as a man who at times seemed discon-nected with the violent reality that swirled around him.
“He didn’t want our protec-tion,” Gallagher said. “He just wanted to be another student at Ole Miss.”
other drug or alcohol offense occurring within that proba-tionary period will result in a university judicial council hearing in which a plea or a determination of a violation will result in suspension from the university.
Chemistry sophomore Maylen McClenic has seen the police in action on the Square.
“I once saw a guy come out of the bar, and he couldn’t walk,” McClenic said. “There were about five cops around him to put him in handcuffs and a ton of other people around them making a scene.”
In order to prevent arrests and chaos, Tim Burkhead, production manager at The Lyric, said they have security covering the entrance where IDs are checked at all the ex-its, and security is scanning the crowd at all times.
Burkhead does not see the problem with intoxicated people who are not making a scene, however.
“I don’t think it’s fair that people get arrested for walk-ing home when they aren’t causing a scene and are try-ing to do the right thing by walking home,” he said.

On Sept. 11, Muslims across the Middle East re-acted to a YouTube trailer for the anti-Islamic movie “In-nocence of Muslims,” pro-duced by Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, by burning the U.S. flag, shouting anti-American chants and storming U.S. em-bassies in Sudan, Germany and the United Kingdom.
Rather than resorting to violence in response to the video, however, the Muslim community in Oxford aims to inform the public of the peaceful nature of Islamic culture.
Adham Hagag, president of the Muslim Student Asso-ciation at The University of Mississippi, said he believes that although Muslims in the Middle East have the right to be upset, they should express their discomfort in more pro-ductive ways than violence.
“You can’t make something
right by doing something wrong,” Hagag said.
Along with the violence in the streets, an Egyptian cleric announced it a religious right to kill any person associated with the video.
April Fuller, a recent con-vert to Islam, saw the reac-tion as inconsistent with her faith.
“Our duty as Muslims is not to kill, it is to spread the word of Islam peacefully,” Fuller said. “They acted out of anger, and because of those actions, Islam has not been displayed correctly.”
Hagag said he hopes the violence in the Middle East will not reflect negatively on peaceful Muslims in the U.S.
“We don’t think about re-acting violently like they did in the Middle East,” Hagag said. “We think about getting the government to make leg-islation that would keep peo-ple from insulting others.”
James Pasley, a geology se-nior who lived in Cairo for
five years, observed that gen-eralizations are problematic in characterizing the nation.
“People will stereotype and say that the entire nation is burning American flags,” Pasley said. “That’s not true.
“You’ve got a few morons who burn American flags. (The) majority of Muslims are kind and generous peo-ple, but the news will always play on the people who want to kill everybody.”
Members of the Muslim Student Association at Ole Miss plan to dedicate a week in November to promote Is-lam as a faith of peace.
Pasley advises students to keep an open mind about the Islamic culture.
“You don’t have to under-stand every culture, but you do have to understand that every culture is different,” Pasley said. “Because if you assume that every culture is the same, you assume that everybody is the same, and you’re already wrong.”

In the darkest corners of Ox-ford, there are whispered ru-mors of a new bar that includes personable and interesting folks, a well-stocked jukebox and the best burger and chicken sandwich this writer has ever been able to get his admittedly rotund hands around.
This, combined with great drink specials (ask for a Win-chester, especially on those tougher days, you’ll thank me), makes Lamar Lounge a hidden gem of Oxford.
Located at 1309 N. Lamar, just past the Beacon, Lamar Lounge has already captured the hearts of many local Oxford residents.
Andy Paul, a recent graduate of The University of Mississippi, said, as he ate a quinoa, black bean and sweet potato veggie burger and partook of a Win-chester, “Lamar Lounge has a great atmosphere.
“You don’t need anything but drinks, music and a couple friends for a good time here.”
This perhaps captures the very essence of Lamar Lounge.
It is a bar that has a relaxed atmosphere. You can swap sto-ries with the bartender, pick out your anthems on the jukebox, take a breather on the back porch and see some pretty rad bands.
Joshua Clark, the general manager and one of the primo bartenders at the lounge, is en-joying the work and the people he serves.
“It’s good to see a lot of differ-ent types of people,” Clark said. “Our customers range from rock and rollers to the older crowd to people from the Win-chester factory.
“It’s a big hodgepodge.”Clark knows the bar scene
well. He has been playing music and working in bars since age 16. It is clear that this is not an experiment for him, but rather an attempt to combine his love of good drinks, fine people and great music, which is of particu-lar note for Clark.
“We’re going to be bringing in a lot of rock bands and bigger things down the line.”
Big things will start tonight at 9 p.m. as Lamar Lounge wel-comes the dreamy pop band
TOPS from Montreal, Canada. Opening for TOPS will be a solo set from Dead Gaze, which has just returned from touring in Europe. Next week, on Oct. 11, local band The Unwed Teen-age Mothers will be opening for Oakland-based Warm Soda.
Lamar Lounge is an exciting addition to Oxford, and Clark gave his thanks to the welcom-ing nature of the people he has served thus far.
“We’re grateful people are coming in and are into it.”
The food is good, the drinks are plentiful and the live shows are exciting and promising. So don’t be a stranger; roll out of your lonely apartment or house and adventure down North La-mar to the Lounge.

Diamond Rebels start fall with high energyole miss baseball is in full swing, as the diamond rebels get back to work for fall practices to prepare for the 2013 season, which begins Feb. 15 against tcu at oxford-university stadium/swayze Field.

After a disappointing end-ing to the 2012 baseball sea-son that saw Ole Miss drop two consecutive games that would have sent them to the NCAA Super Regionals, the Ole Miss baseball team re-turned to the diamond this fall to prepare for the 2013 season.
The Rebels completed their third week of fall practices with intrasquad scrimmages this past weekend.
Junior right-hander Bobby Wahl and junior right-hander
Mike Mayers will be held out of play during the fall. Wahl played with the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team, while Mayers played in the prestigious Cape Cod League, and the coaching staff doesn’t want to risk injury with either after strenuous summers.
With Wahl and Mayers be-hind held out, the focus in the fall with the pitching staff shifted to the Sunday week-end starter. That role may not be won during the fall, but it will provide a starting point for the start of spring practice.
The leading candidates so far are senior right-hander
Tanner Bailey and sopho-more right-handers Hawtin Buchanan, Chris Ellis and Josh Laxer. Another thing to keep an eye on this fall is the progression of freshman pitchers Brady Bramlett, Matt Denny and Jacob Wagues-pack.
An interesting note for the Ole Miss pitching staff is that it features four lefties, all four of whom are newcomers. Denny is the lone freshman, while Austin Blunt, Jeremy Massie and Scott Ashford are all junior college transfers.
In the field, there are some question marks, most notably
at catcher, first base and sec-ond base, with the departures of Matt Snyder and Alex Yar-brough.
At catcher, Ole Miss returns junior Will Allen, who started last season, but his potential move to first base leaves the door open for guys such as sophomore Austin Knight and junior college transfer Stuart Turner.
At first base, the Rebels re-turn sophomore Sikes Orvis, who backed up Matt Snyder last season. With Allen pos-sibly playing some first base, Orvis may be pushed to the designated hitter role.
At second base, Alex Yar-brough leaves big shoes to be filled. A host of players have played second base this fall, including John Gatlin, Jake Overbey, Lance Wilson and Christian Helsel.
So far this fall, junior short-stop Austin Anderson leads the team in hits with 11 and is the only player with double-digit hits. Sophomore out-fielder Will Jamison has eight and freshman Holt Perdzock has seven, followed by a host of players with six hits.
Ole Miss will wrap up fall ball in late October with its annual fall world series.

son. Auburn quarterback Kiehl Frazier leads the conference in interceptions thrown with sev-en.
Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze commented on Wal-lace’s two interceptions during Monday’s press conference.
“First one, he’s out of the pocket,” Freeze said. “He should throw it away, but he threw it right to them. His me-chanics were awful on it, and he’d be the first to say that to you. The second one, he’s just greedy thinking that Donte (Moncrief) is going to go up and make a play.”
Wallace agreed with those statements and admitted that he is just trying to do too much.
“It definitely is (a forcing-it thing),” Wallace said. “I got greedy on that one, and then just trying to make a play on third-and-15 when you’re prob-ably not going to get a third-and-15 conversion against Ala-bama anyway.
“I think my problem right
now is (that) coaches say punt-ing is a good thing, which in my head right now the last couple of games, it (hasn’t) been, ‘Punt-ing is a good thing.’ I’m just pressing too much.”
The response to Saturday’s game is that the Rebels will have more competition than usual at the quarterback spot this week going into Saturday’s game against Texas A&M.
“Interceptions are a part of the game, and as quarterback you’ve got to have a short mem-ory and you’ve got to forget about them and you’ve got to move on and all of that,” Freeze said. “But if it’s a reoccurring pattern on just bad decisions and bad throws, then I think we as coaches have got to explore other avenues.”
For Wallace, he says, it’ll be “the same week for me.”
“I think as close as the race was the whole time, I’ve always thought Barry (Brunetti) was right on my back,” Wallace said.

TULSA, Okla. – The Ole Miss men’s tennis team concluded play in the ITA All-American Championships Tuesday, as William Kallberg dropped his singles match and then he and Johan Backstrom lost a tiebreak-er in doubles.
In the morning, Kallberg faced Joe Salisbury, who played No. 1 and 2 for Memphis last year, in the second round of singles. Salisbury gained a quick lead and went on to win 6-1, 6-3.
Later in the afternoon, Kall-berg and Backstrom teamed up in the first round of doubles against Grant Taylor and Lance Wilhelm of Airforce. The two battled back and forth to a tie-breaker, which the Airforce duo won 9-8(4) to advance.
The Rebels are not quite done at the All-American, as senior Jonas Lutjen and sophomore Nik Scholtz will compete in the main draw singles and doubles beginning Thursday. The draws will be finalized Wednesday, once the qualifying is complete.

qb STarTer To be naMeD ThurSDaYthis weekend’s matchup against texas a&m brings a tricky matchup as the rebels attempt to stop dual-threat freshman quarterback Johnny manziel, while also sorting through ole miss’ own quarterback situation.

Ole Miss resumed practice Tuesday afternoon after its 33-14 loss this past Saturday to No. 1 Alabama in Tuscaloosa. The Rebels (3-2, 0-1 SEC) will welcome Southeastern Confer-ence newcomer Texas A&M (3-1, 1-1 SEC) this weekend.
In Monday’s weekly press conference, head coach Hugh Freeze said that the quarter-back competition will be more open this week. Sophomore Bo Wallace and junior Barry Brunetti split snaps at quarter-back on Tuesday.
“It was good competition today,” Freeze said. “We’ll go chart everything on the film to-day. It’s hard when you’re out there standing behind to see if the reads were proper, but it’s some good competition. We’ll name Thursday who is going to get the start.”
Defense prepares for Man-ziel
Texas A&M freshman quar-terback Johnny Manziel has had his way with opposing defenses this season, and Ole
Miss will have its hands full with him this weekend.
The Aggies’ leading passer and rusher was named SEC Offensive Player of the Week after he set an SEC and school record with 557 yards of total offense in this past week’s 58-10 win against Arkansas.
“This week we have a lot of plays where we will always have somebody watching him,” sophomore safety Cody Prewitt said. “The defensive backs are going to stay disci-plined with our scramble rules, and if we do that and have somebody watching him at all times, we’ll be good.”
Through four games for the Aggies, Manziel has thrown for 1,094 yards and 10 touch-downs without an interception in 124 pass attempts, to go along with 366 yards and six touchdowns on the ground. He leads the SEC in total of-fense (365.0 ypg). He also ranks fourth in passing (273.5 ypg) and fifth in rushing (91.5 ypg).
“He can scramble all over the place,” defensive coordi-nator Dave Wommack said.
“He stresses you. He absolute-ly stresses your defense. He is very good and very effective.”
Neat, Grant return from in-jury
Ole Miss regained the servic-es of two key players Tuesday in junior wide receiver Kor-vic Neat and senior defensive tackle Uriah Grant. However, freshman defensive tackle Woodrow Hamilton did not practice. Neat and Hamilton did not play against Alabama this past Saturday.
“Woody (Hamilton), we still don’t think he’ll go,” Freeze said. “Korvic (Neat) practiced today and looked OK. Uriah (Grant) practiced today, and we think he’ll go. Bo’s (Wal-lace) shoulder still isn’t 100 per-cent, but we’re pretty healthy.”
Neat is second on the team in receiving this year with 14 catches for 151 yards. Grant has recorded nine tackles on the year, and Hamilton has added seven of his own.

Wallace feels the heatole miss head coach hugh Freeze said on monday that there would be competition at practice this week for the start-ing quarterback job. sophomore Bo wallace knows he has to improve his game to solidify the position and is ready for the challenge.
There are points in every game where a play breaks down and the quarterback has to rely on his instincts and in-tangibles to attempt to make a play.
The same applies for Ole Miss sophomore quarterback Bo Wallace, who is now faced with the challenge of adjust-ing those instincts as he learns what works in Southeastern Conference play and what doesn’t.
Turnovers are something that Wallace knows Ole Miss cannot afford, as the Rebels’ margin of error in games they want to win is incredibly slim.
“The thing that’s most frus-trating is I think I’m playing solid, it’s just (that) the one or two mistakes that I’m making (are) crucial and absolutely killing us,” Wallace said. “It’s not like I’m missing open guys or anything like that. It’s just
the mistakes I’m making are turning the ball over, which ends up getting us beat.”
Changing his instincts and becoming more conservative with the ball when there isn’t a play to be made is a process for Wallace after a season of big plays at East Mississippi Community College last year.
“It’s very tough because last year it’d be third-and-20, and we’d end up getting that con-version,” Wallace said. “We just would out-athlete them and things like that, but here, you can’t really do that. This is big-boy ball, and you have to burn them.”
After Saturday’s two-inter-ception performance against Alabama, Wallace now has six interceptions on the season. That number ties him with Tennessee quarterback Tyler Bray for second most in the conference, although Bray has 81 more attempts on the sea-
