Assistant veterans commissioner assures
cemetery committee, encourages fundraising
By LINDSAY McREYNOLDS
HERALD-CITIZEN Staff
UPPER CUMBERLAND — Although
members of a veterans cemetery steering committee expressed frustration on
Friday about the lack of a site on which
to build a veterans cemetery in the
Upper Cumberland, the assistant commissioner of Tennessee Veterans Services assured the group that the project is
still moving forward and encouraged
fundraising efforts.
“It’s still going to happen,” Tennessee
Veterans Services Assistant Commissioner Lorenza Wills told members of
the Upper Cumberland Veterans Cemetery Steering Committee. “When? I
don’t know. We’re in the process of selecting land. I know a lot of people are
frustrated. My message to you from the
commissioner is ‘Keep fundraising,
guys.’”
Wills said the state is looking at five or
six properties in the Upper Cumberland
area, and some of the land being considered for a cemetery is in the Monterey
area near Exit 290 off Interstate 40.
But no specific addresses were announced on Friday. Wills said that when
the state narrows it down to one or two
properties, he would notify the steering
committee so that they could view
those.
Including money collected during Friday’s meeting, the committee has raised
more than $60,000 from local governments and private donations, many collected from canisters at various
businesses in the 14-county Upper
Cumberland region the cemetery would
serve.
By comparison, a group working to establish a veterans cemetery in West Ten-
nessee at Parkers Crossroads, raised
$313,595 after a couple of years of
fundraising, and the state provided a
portion of the funds for the group to
purchase property for a veterans cemetery there in 2014.
Donna Fare of White County, who was
elected as the new chairperson of the
committee on Friday, talked about one
possible way to fundraise for the cemetery is establishing a memory garden
with engraved stones or blocks, similar
to what’s in the veterans park in White
County across from the courthouse.
Veterans cemetery committee secretary Al Klee suggested that group members talk to their county budget officials
now about giving to the cemetery as
they are in the process of preparing
budgets for the next fiscal year that begins July 1.

cemeteries in Nashville and Chattanooga, along with three state veterans
cemeteries in Nashville, Knoxville and
Memphis.
Tennessee Veterans Services Commissioner Many-Bears Grinder has said her
department’s goal is to establish a state
veterans cemetery within 75 miles of
the veteran population.
Approximately 25,000 veterans reside
in the 14-county Upper Cumberland region.
Those who wish to donate to a veterans cemetery may make checks payable
to the Military Officers Association of
America and send to 197 Ivy Brook
Lane, Crossville, TN 38555.
The next meeting of the committee is
Friday, May 6, at 9 a.m. at the Upper
Cumberland Human Resource Agency
on South Jefferson Avenue in
Cookeville.
ABUSE: Raising awareness during month of April

them are so drug addicted. Some
people say, ‘Well, they just need
to quit doing that.’ But these people are so ravaged by drugs and
alcohol. A lot of it is the environment they’ve been brought up it.
It’s really sad to see that and to
know what those kids are living
through.”
However, Qualls does see positive outcomes as well. For some
parents, being reported for child
abuse or neglect is just the wake
up call that they need to get
themselves help, even if they
don’t see it in that light at first.
“I had a gentleman not long ago
who went to in-patient treatment,” Qualls said. “He was
there for 60 days and was going
to be there for another 60 days.

ferent he looks and how his atti-
tude has changed.’ It seems like
a lot of these people who are able
to go to long-term programs, they
really turn it around with a much
higher success rate. It’s really
neat to see that.”
Anyone who suspects child
abuse is going on should call the
hotline at Child Abuse Hotline 1877-237-0004
or
visit
https://apps.tn.gov/carat/. “A lot
of times people have friends or
family and they just don’t want to
say anything.They say, ‘I don’t
want to be the one to get them in
trouble.’ But that just causes
things to get worse, and that’s
putting a child at risk,” Qualls
said. “If somebody knows something, they need to report it. They
can report it to the hotline and
their name will never be used.
Even in court proceedings, if the
case worker is asked who called,
they can’t and won’t disclose
that.”
FOCUS: Oldham proactive in communicating with campus
From Page A1
islative review and may still be amended
and even rejected, would — if approved
— go into effect with a 16- to 18-month
transition period beginning July 1.
But in a field not historically known for
making quick changes, this proposal is almost overwhelming, some faculty members say.
“It feels like a lot of change in a short
amount of time,” Gruber said.
Faculty representation
And the plan’s threat to the concept of
shared governance is illustrated by a lack
or shortage of faculty representation on
the appointed transitional task force and
proposed state university board, faculty
say.
Under the Tennessee Board of Regents,
the universities’ current governing board,
a faculty sub-council includes faculty representatives from both the two- and fouryear schools, which they say helps to
foster unity and cooperation among the
institutions.
According to the current proposed plan
for the FOCUS Act, each state university
board would include only one faculty representative, who would serve a two-year
term while other members, with the exception of a nonvoting student member,
would serve rotating six-year terms.
Such a configuration would cause the
faculty to “lose much of its voice,” Gruber said.
“It would reduce the influence of the
people who actually deliver the goods,”
she said, concerning the elimination of
the TBR’s faculty sub-council and establishment of the state university board.
“The faculty objects to being excluded
in all stages of this process. We’re the
higher education workforce,” she said.
TTU President Philip Oldham and other
proponents of the FOCUS Act say, on the
contrary, the faculty voice has the potential to be heard even louder on each state
university board because it will no longer
be diluted by other institutions.
Many faculty, however, seem to see
unity where proponents of the act see dilution.
Unity
Among the concerns faculty have expressed to Gruber, she said, includes concern that the higher education pillars
should work together.
“It seems that higher education could be
better served by having the community
colleges and four-year universities continuing to work together,” she said.
Other faculty have asked, with so much
emphasis put on living and operating in a
globalized world, why is Tennessee
higher education now choosing instead to
centralize?
Although proponents say cooperation
among higher education institutions will
not be compromised by the establishment
of state university boards, others say they
fear it is a significant move from a student-centered approach to a business-centered concept.
Business-centered
And national trends, as presented in
some higher education publications, seem
to back up those fears.
Howard Bunsis, national chair of
AAUP’s Bargaining Congress, says in a
recent article on the Truthout website that,
across the country, higher education governing boards are more and more frequently made up of individuals from the
private sector who have little to no experience in teaching and education.
The problem, especially for public institutions, he says, is that higher education
starts to be treated as a profit center instead of a public benefit.
“What do business people know about
academics?” Gruber iterated.
She said she has heard concerns among
the faculty that a governing board
weighted with business people and private sector individuals will have difficulty
distinguishing training from education.
“Higher education is about more than
just training future employees. Yes, we
want graduates to be able to find jobs and
establish careers, but we also want them
to be well-rounded individuals with the
power to think and act for themselves
throughout life,” she said.
Jon Jonakin, a professor emeritus of
business from TTU, says he believes that
public liberal arts institutions will be
jeopardized by a business mentality if the
FOCUS Act is ultimately approved.
“There are a lot of disturbing aspects to
this whole proposal, and I believe the uncertainty is intentional at this point. There
just seems to be a lot of calculated ambiguity in a rush to get this proposal
passed,” he said.
But if the FOCUS Act is approved, will
the state university board be made up of
mostly community businesspeople?
Proponents like Oldham say it will not.
In addition to the nonvoting student
member and the two-year faculty post, the
board will include seven other positions.
According to the current proposal, at least
three of them must be alumni from the
university — and Oldham says, at least at
TTU, he will seek to get as broad of an
alumni representation as possible.
In addition, no more than three of the
board members may live out-of-state, the
proposal says.
Those stipulations, however, appear to
be the only defining boundaries for the
membership of the state university board.
Academic freedom
Some faculty say they are concerned
that the proposal may also challenge their
academic freedom, a central tenet of
higher education that allows faculty
members — the experts in their fields —
to create and guide their courses and curricula.
They site a passage in the proposed
FOCUS Act that says it will give the state
university board the power to “prescribe
curricula and requirements for diplomas
and degrees.”
But proponents say the TBR currently
has that power over academic standards,
and passage of the proposed act will do
little to change day-to-day classroom activities.
Will it also possibly change the administration or add costs to the university
somehow?
Cost of administration
Some TTU faculty say they see the ninemember board as additional administrators at a university that is already deluged
with administration.
According to online statistics updated
continually by the Chronicle of Higher
Education, the average national salary for
management at four-year public universities is around $101,500.
The average salary for managers and administrators at TTU is $139,105.
By TTU’s own record, the highest paid
administrator at the university, whose job
concerns research, earns a salary of
$305,500, an amount that exceeds even
President Oldham’s annual salary of
$280,400.
Of the six four-year universities in the
state, only the University of Memphis
pays its managers and administrators
more than TTU, at an average of
$148,211.
Rather than comparing TTU to other
state public institutions, however, some
suggest that TTU’s salaries instead be
compared to those of Georgia Tech and
other such engineering and research universities across the nation.
That suggestion infers TTU’s reputation
as a major research institution, but a recent article from Inside Higher Ed notes
the University of Memphis as “the only
research university in the TBR system.”
In spite of a multitude of concerns expressed by faculty about the proposed
FOCUS Act, many say President Oldham
has been more proactive in communicating with the TTU campus than presidents
of other universities appear to have been.
He has arranged meetings with each individual college within the university to
address the topic.
And the university has a website that addresses frequently asked questions about
the proposed FOCUS Act and allows the
campus and the public to ask their own
questions.

Are expired
foods your
future diet?
I
really should be prejudiced
against this week’s topic, but
I’m not.
Back when I was around 11
years old, I marched into the
local Kuhn’s Variety Store with
my hard-earned coins and
proudly purchased a box of popcorn-based Fiddle Faddle. When
I got home and crammed a handful into my mouth, I soon discovered a
ragtag band
of weevils
doing some
dirty dancing
on my
tongue.
To this day,
I can still
swear I heard
a tiny voice
taunting me
Danny
as I spit the
Tyree
snack out,
“Nobody
puts Baby in a wastebasket!”
In spite of that childhood
trauma, I was encouraged recently when CBS News and National Public Radio reported on
WeFood, a nonprofit business in
Copenhagen, Denmark selling
food with past-due sell-by dates
and damaged packaging for as
much as half-off the price posted
at regular stores. WeFood seeks
to target both low-income consumers and environmentally conscious shoppers.
WeFood is getting off to a good
start, but many people worldwide still have a misunderstanding of “sell by” dates. The dates
indicate when the product is at
its peak, but they can be edible
and nutritious much longer. It’s
not like Cinderella’s carriage
turning back into a pumpkin at
the stroke of midnight. If it were,
Disney would already have
trademarked the process and
given us “Country Botulism
Jamboree” rides and “High
School Cafeteria Musical: Mystery Meat’s Last Legs” TV
movies.
Developments such as WeFood,
Boston’s Daily Table membership-only supermarket and the
Rockefeller Foundation’s $130
million YieldWise initiative
should get us all fired up to fight
food waste and feed the world’s
undernourished. (According to
the United Nations, one-third of
all food produced around the
world for human consumption is
lost or wasted, even as nearly
one billion people worldwide
lack enough food to lead a
healthy, active lifestyle.)
We Americans are way too
finicky about what we eat. I
wouldn’t be surprised if a book
club met to discuss “The Diary
of Anne Frank,” and during
snacktime someone lamented,
“We’ve had to eat leftovers
TWICE this month. Can you
imagine anything worse?”
Our mood swings make us keep
cramming food farther and farther back into the recesses of the
refrigerator. The fridge sometimes gets so bad that there’s a
fight over the stuff growing in
there and how many delegates
it’s entitled to.
We really need to get over our
“Silly rabbit, Trix are for landfills” mentality and crack down
on the wasteful morons who
chuckle, “Guess my eyes were
bigger than my stomach.” Let’s
have them saying, “Guess your
boot was bigger than my backside. Ouch!”
Among the worst offenders are
the mothers who take their
youngsters to the head of the line
at church socials or family reunions and pile their plate with
stuff they’ll never eat. Ah, the
miracle of mommas: they can
feed the two with 5,000 loaves
and fishes.
Perhaps more restaurants and
supermarkets can be convinced
to overcome the logistical problems and get excess food to
homeless shelters and food
banks. Then they can re-fit their
old techniques to dealing with
politicians who have gone way
past their shelf life.
“Hey, somebody threw me in a
dumpster and poured bleach on
me! But, speaking as someone
who has run four unsuccessful
campaigns for dog catcher, I demand to share my two cents
worth with the candidates of
2020. Ow, it burns!”

Liberals and their unintended consequences
I
f the law of unintended consequences was actually a law enacted
by legislators, it would likely be of
no consequence at all. Unfortunately
it’s a force of nature, not of man.
When the government has exerted
force to raise the minimum wage by
fiat outside of free markets, the result
is immediate higher unemployment
among minimum wage earners.
When seat belts went into effect, the
number of traffic accidents actually
increased. Economist Sam Peltzman
discovered that total fatalities were
about the same as before the seat belt
law. But while the death rate for motorists decreased, there was a higher
death rate among pedestrians and cyclists hit by cars. Why? The seat belt
gives drivers a false sense of extra security, encouraging them to drive
more recklessly.
This brings us to lawmakers who
have decided that banning plastic grocery bags or nudging people away
from using them by charging five or
ten cents per bag will save the occasional sea turtle from eating one,
thinking it’s a jellyfish.
It’s a lovely thought, isn’t it?
Supporters of these bills will cite
thousands of bags menacing beaches
and hyperopic fish. Good-hearted citizens will cheer and feel good about
“doing something” to save the environment, then drive home past massive, mostly hidden graveyards of
truck and car tires.
La-de-dah.
Depending upon your view, it’s either unfortunate or no big deal that
there’s a direct correlation to banning
plastic bags and the deaths of more
than five people each year in a city the
size of San Francisco.
According to a study by two univer-
sity professors, it’s
actually 5.5 people
in San Francisco
who die each year
as a direct result
of the grocery
plastic bag ban.
For some people,
that’s a fair trade
for potentially,
possibly, maybe
saving a turtle.
Rick
San Francisco
Jensen
has been leading
the fight against
plastic bags. In 2007, the Environmental Department of the City of San
Francisco reported plastics bags distributed by retail stores account for
0.6 percent of litter.
Six tenths of one percent.
A federal EPA study found plastic
bags make up four tenths of one percent of our country’s municipal waste
stream.
Four tenths of one percent.
Back in 2013, Ramesh Ponnuru
noted news reports from around the
country describing illnesses caused by
reusable grocery bags.
“A reusable grocery bag left in a
hotel bathroom caused an outbreak of
norovirus-induced diarrhea and nausea that struck nine of 13 members of
a girls’ soccer team,” Ponnuru reported. “Researchers examined
reusable bags in California and Arizona and found that 51 percent of
them contained coliform bacteria.”
The most extensive study seems to
be that of University of Pennsylvania
Professor Jonathan Klick and George
Mason University Professor Joshua
Wright.
They found that as soon as the ban
went into effect, emergency-room ad-
missions related to E. coli infections
increased in San Francisco. It’s their
study that estimates the ban is directly
responsible for a 46 percent increase
in deaths from foodborne illnesses.
Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to
be any study measuring the number of
sea turtles saved per human death.
The difference is that human deaths
are preventable if humans would just
wash and disinfect their reusable bags.
97 percent don’t.
Huntington Beach, CA has rescinded
their plastic bag ban, realizing it’s just
“token environmentalism” with no
real effect except more grocery store
profits.
One city council member said, “Our
ordinance has not had any positive,
measurable impact on the environment and has only caused headaches
for citizens and small businesses
alike.”
Delaware is considering the ill-conceived notion of forcing grocery
stores to charge five cents for every
plastic bag distributed.
The danger is in having citizens believe they’re doing something positive
when the opposite is true, giving them
a false sense of accomplishment or security, like gun buy-backs.
Perhaps this is to be presumed in a
state run by Democrats who think
they’re so awesome that they have
sponsored legislation extending their
terms in the state house and state senate by two years.
Americans who would actually like
term limits, not extensions, are obviously not currently living the life of
the electoral elite.

Nancy’s Reagan’s mission was her husband
W
hen we talk about marriage
today, it’s usually in connection with breakups,
wedding excess, or the victory of
LGBT advocates. For many, traditional long-term unions are becoming
as rare as a protest-free Oscars ceremony.
Most of the marriages that have
withstood the test of time are the
ones in our family photo albums, hidden from the public glare of klieg
lights. My grandparents had that sort
of relationship, the 30 years of living
together and raising a family and the
remaining 17 of my grandmother’s
widowhood when she never looked at
another man. Her heart had space for
only one soul mate.
My parents repeated that history: 22
years together and then the 32 additional years my mother lived, not
alone, but coupled with daddy’s spirit
until her own death. My sister’s best
friend’s mother and her husband had
decades together, a half-century, and
are together again with God. The few
public faces that we have of true marital devotion - Paul Newman and
Joanne Woodward, Ossie Davis and
Ruby Dee, George and Barbara Bush
- belong to another era.
That’s what I thought of when I
learned that Nancy Reagan had died.
Actually, my first thought - and I’m
sure many others
join me - was that
Nancy and her
Ronnie were together again. I
also thought that
this is as joyous
for her as it is
mournful for us.
Nancy was the
first lady of my
young adulthood.
Christine
She ushered in my
Flowers
political awakening, as I realized
for the first time that I was a Democrat in name only. She also taught me
the power of the color red.
And, for the first time, I saw reflected in her adoration for Ronald
Reagan the same dynamic that was at
play in the marriages I knew of personally. Yes, I knew children of divorced parents. One of my relatives
on my mother’s side was twice divorced; another two or three on my
Dad’s side were also on their second
relationships. But the people closest
to me had been lucky enough to find
the answer to their search early on in
their lives, and I was a beneficiary of
that.
Ironically, Nancy was Reagan’s second wife, but if it weren’t for the fact
that his first was an Oscar-winning
movie star whose career surpassed
his own, we’d remember only this
second, enduring union.
Nancy Reagan wasn’t big on policy.
Her unfortunate “Just Say No” campaign oversimplified the scourge of
addiction. Her real mission was her
husband. She adored him with the
kind of zeal that evangelicals reserve
for God, and I do think Ronnie was
her church, her true north, her faith.
The look in her eyes when she gazed
upon him was something out of those
old Mass cards I used to collect as a
child, with the heavenward gaze of
saints.
Some have written obituaries in
other terms. They’ve said there is
something wrong in turning your life
over to your mate, and that a
woman’s highest calling is to herself.
We’ll just disagree on that, because
I believe that our engagement and
concern for others far exceeds, in
moral value, the elevation and independence of self.
What we can agree on is that Nancy
is back in her Ronnie’s arms, and that
is the stuff of paradise.

For new patients that do not have dental insurance. New patients must be 21 or older to receive $19 exam and X-rays, a minimum $170 value. Minimum savings is based on a comprehensive exam and full X-ray
series; the value of the savings will vary based on doctor recommendation. Discounts cannot be combined with other offers or dental discount plans. 2Starting price is based on a current denture wearer selecting a
Basic single arch replacement denture. Price does not include relines or adjustments. 3Denture Money Back Guarantee applies to all full and partial dentures and covers the cost of the permanent denture(s) only. The
guarantee period begins upon insert of final denture or hard reline and refund request must be submitted within 90 days thereafter. Denture(s) must be returned within 90 days after refund request date. 4Some
patients will not qualify for extended financing. Subject to credit approval and minimum purchase amounts, as determined by third party financing sources. 5Some limitations may apply. See provider for details.
Offer(s) must be presented at first visit. Offers expire 5/31/16. ©2016 Aspen Dental Management, Inc. AJ & Associates Dental, PC, Joseph Lehman DDS, Anissa Burgess DDS, General Dentistry Office.

Look..!
W.R. “Walter” Stasiuk A.C.A. / BC-HIS
Audioprosthologist
It’s about regaining a vital part of your ability to communicate with the rest of the
world and improving your quality of life. That’s why we are offering you an
opportunity to evaluate one of our revolutionary new digital hearing instruments.
This ideal blending of amplification and natural sound has provided a more realistic
sound quality that makes listening and understanding more enjoyable and
comfortable. So small in size, and so natural in sound quality that people actually
say they sometimes forget they are even wearing it.
Whether you are presently wearing hearing instruments or not, and would like to
explore the possibility of better hearing and understanding, please call us at 931520-7070 to participate in a free in-office trial of these revolutionary new digital
hearing instruments. A complimentary hearing evaluation will be provided to
determine audiometric profile.
If you enjoy the hearing quality with this new technology, you may purchase these
hearing instruments at a reduced charge. Otherwise, there is no charge whatsoever
for participating.
This is a wonderful opportunity to determine if hearing help is available for you.

SCHOOLS
Engineering honors its brightest at TTU E-Week Banquet
TTU — The College of Engineering at
Tennessee Tech University honored its
most creative and innovative alumni,
faculty, students and staff at the annual
Engineering Week awards banquet on
Feb. 25.
Alumni awards were presented in three
categories. William (Bob) Vick, president of Bob Vick & Associates in
Cookeville, received the Engineer of
Distinction Award. Vick earned his
bachelor’s degree in 1968 and master’s
in 1970 from TTU in civil engineering.
Steven Hawkins received the Technol-
ogist of Distinction Award. Hawkins is
an administrator for the Tennessee Occupational Safety and Health Administration in Nashville and earned his
bachelor’s degree in industrial technology from Tennessee Tech in 1986.
Carlos Carvajal was honored as the inaugural winner of the Young Alumnus
Achievement Award. Carvajal, a global
procurement manager for Eastman
Chemical Company, earned his bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering
from TTU in 2006.
Alfred Kalyanapu, assistant professor
of civil and environmental engineering,
received the Kinslow Engineering Research Award. He was recognized for his
work as lead author on a research paper
published in the Earth Interactions Online Journal. The article details the impacts of modified flood patterns for
cities near dams.
Mechanical engineering doctorate student Jason Cole Witman was this year’s
recipient of the Leighton E. Sissom Innovation and Creativity Award. Witman
was honored for his work on a four-year
research project in alternative low-cost

is an administrative associate in the mechanical engineering department. Holm
graduated magna cum laude from TTU
with a bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies. Holm was recognized for

crossed his mind. But at least he had his car.
He also had two part-time jobs — one in
Cookeville and another back home in Winchester
on the weekends — which provided enough
money for gas and food. It was a situation Seals
said he kept from others, even his mother, due to
the embarrassment.
So why keep going to school? Why not just quit
and get a full-time job? Seals said he just wasn’t
ready to give up on his education, nor did he
want to start repaying his student loans.
“I had to keep going to put that off until I graduated,” he said.
When the new semester began in January, Seals
found himself still living in his car, but he had
also secured student loans as a start toward improving his situation. Then a snow storm hit,
bringing with it enough of the white stuff to
cause TTU classes to be canceled for a couple of
days.
And it was on that Friday — Jan. 22 — that
Seals decided to turn his break from school into
an opportunity to make the two-and-a-half hour
drive back to his hometown. Maybe he would
build a snowman. Or go sledding.
But a complication arose along the way. His car
hydroplaned and hit a utility pole, crushing the
trunk and shattering the back window.
“When I got to the trunk, my heart was crushed
— along with my laptop,” he said.
That’s when Seals said he finally sought assistance to get through his predicament. He even
shared his story on gofundme.com, where he
generated enough donations to buy a new laptop
and make some rent payments on the apartment

The banquet was the final event of EWeek, and winners of the student competitions for “best darn major” were also
announced Thursday evening. Each
night throughout the week, competitions
between majors took place in various locations across campus. Such competitions were the Raspberry Pi, Building

Canoe race. The Department of Chemical Engineering took the 2016 title.
he now shares with friends while continuing on
with his studies at TTU.
“I didn’t know people would be that kind to a
complete stranger,” he said. “There are actually
nice people out there who want to help.”
In addition, Marc Burnett, vice president of student affairs at TTU, met with Seals on campus
upon learning about his ordeal.
“It was just a matter of us not being aware,” he
said. “He hadn’t come forward.
“But once we found him, I just talked with him
about his situation. We offered him some assistance, including housing on campus the rest of
the semester, but he said he had made other
arrangements.”
Burnett said that while some students in similar
situations do occasionally approach the university for help, such as getting items from the food
pantry, many do not.
“We don’t want any student to be in that position,” he said. “If we’re aware, we offer as much
assistance as we can. Not only do we want to educate them, we want them to be able to get along
and do the things they need to do. That’s what
we’re here for.”
Burnett added that he’s glad Seals’ story ended
on a positive note as well as shed some light on
the issue of student homelessness.
“We’ve even taken further steps to see if there
are any other students out there who may fit that
category in terms of not having the things they
need to be here,” he said.
Meanwhile, Seals said his lack of a vehicle limits his opportunities to hold a job, but that’s a situation he plans to remedy during spring and
summer breaks from school.
Until then, it’s all about academics.

KNOXVILLE — U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.)
was named Council Alumnus of the Year by the Great
Smoky Mountain Council of the Boy Scouts of America
for applying skills and values he learned as a Boy Scout
throughout his career.
“Being a Boy Scout taught me about the outdoors and
what it means to be an American,” Alexander said. “I
have put that love for the outdoors to work as a United
States Senator, trying to protect the parks, keep the air
clean and keep enough open space so that our children
and grandchildren can enjoy the outdoors as I did.”
Alexander received the Council Alumnus of the Year
Award at the Great Smoky Mountain Council’s annual
volunteer dinner in Knoxville.
The award, the National Scouting Alumni Association’s
highest council recognition, recognizes alumni of the
Boy Scouts of America who have used the skillsets and
values they learned through Scouting to make significant
and long-lasting contributions to their community
throughout their career.
The National Council of the Boy Scouts of America authorized the award last year, and Alexander is the Great
Smoky Mountain Council’s first recipient.
Alexander praised the Great Smoky Mountain Council
for its work in providing boys and girls in grades 3-12
with fun and exciting opportunities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The STEM Scouts
program encourages youth to engage in STEM activities
that will translate into STEM-related careers that are crucial to our country’s future economy.
The Great Smoky Mountain Council served over 300
STEM Scouts in its first year, and by the end of 2015,
there were 793 Scouts in the program with membership
continuing to grow.
“Last year, the Senate education committee that I chair
passed legislation to strengthen federal support for
STEM education at elementary and secondary schools,”
Alexander said.
“Teaching youth how to apply STEM to everyday life
and giving them opportunities to expand those experiences into a future career is important, and I commend
the Great Smoky Mountain Council for encouraging
STEM in a fun and creative way.”
Alexander earned his Eagle Scout Award in 1954 as a
member of Troop 88 at New Providence Presbyterian
Church in Maryville. He was presented with the DistinSee SCOUTS, Page B6

The benefits of a healthy
diet are clear and well documented. In addition to providing the nutrients a
growing body needs, consuming a balanced diet helps
children maintain a healthy
weight.
Obesity continues to be a
growing problem among
school-aged children and can
contribute to the onset of
type 2 diabetes, heart disease,
high cholesterol, and many
other adverse medical conditions. Children attending
school will eat at least one
meal away from home each
day. A healthy lunch provides
sound nutrition to give students energy to do well in
school and for the rest of the
day. Children who do not eat
well at lunch may have difficulty concentrating, while
others may feel sluggish or
tired.
As part of the 2010 Healthy,
Hunger-Free Kids Act, the
United States National
School Lunch Program was
revised to guarantee healthy,
nutritionally sound choices,
as established by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture,
for lunch.
America’s school menus
were altered to be healthier
than ever, including more
fruits and vegetables while
limiting calories. Despite
some controversy through the
years, including some students saying the smaller portions and food choices aren’t
always satisfying, states suffering from high child obesity rates have seen marked
improvements.
Canada is one of the few
leading industrialized countries that does not have a national nutrition strategy to
implement healthy school
lunches.
It’s estimated that only 10 to
15 percent of Canadian children have access to school
meals. These meals are not
provided by a well-funded
national program, but by a
patchwork of individual volunteer efforts, some provincial government funding and
corporate donations. Whether
students purchase lunch from
school or bring lunch from
home, there are ways to guarantee a more diverse offering
and better nutrition.
Here are some guidelines to
follow.
• Offer nutrient-dense
foods. Foods should contribute to the daily recommended amounts of protein,
iron, calcium, vitamin A, and
vitamin C. Provide a selection of foods, such as lean
protein, whole grains, fruits,
and vegetables, that will give
children the nutrients they
need. Nutrient-dense foods
also help kids feel fuller,
longer.
• Limit fat intake. Avoid
foods that do not get their fat
from polyunsaturated and
monounsaturated fats. Saturated fats can lead to obesity
and clogged arteries. The
American Heart Association
recommends kids get no
more than 25 to 35 percent of
their calories from fat. Fish,
nuts and olives are healthy
fat sources.
• Let kids choose some of
their food. Allow kids to pick
some of the healthy foods
they will be eating. Giving
kids a say in their diets will
make them more likely to
enjoy their lunches and cut
back on snack foods. Eating
meals regularly will keep energy levels up during school
and make kids less likely to
reach for unhealthy snacks to
fill hunger gaps.
• Make small changes that
add up. Switching from white
bread to whole grain breads,
and opting for low-fat dairy
products instead of full-fat
dairy products can make a
world of difference. Kids
may not notice a change in
texture or flavor, and many
of kids’ favorite foods, such
as chicken nuggets, pizza and
macaroni and cheese, can be
made with healthier ingredients.
• Remember, beverages
count, too. Giving children a
healthy lunch and then packing a sugar-filled, high-calorie drink negates your efforts.
Calories from beverages can
quickly add up. Water is always the best option for a
healthy drink. Low-fat milk
and real fruit juice consumed
in moderation also make
healthy alternatives to sugary
beverages.
Offering healthy school
lunches is an important step
to raising healthy kids. New
guidelines and offerings
make it easier for kids to get
the nutrition they need for
their growing bodies.
Early intervention keeps students on track toward graduation
Education experts are well versed in
the benefits of students staying in school
and graduating. Career opportunities are
greater for those with diplomas, and
much emphasis has been placed on improving school graduation rates.
Data compiled by National Public
Radio revealed that stepping in early to
keep a student on track can pay off down
the road. It is believed that warning
signs that predict a child’s chance of
graduating high school may surface as
early as the first grade.
Many have dubbed these signs ABCs,
for Attendance, Behavior and Classwork.
There has been a growing demand for
school systems to develop warning indicators for students in elementary school,
according to researchers leading early
warning and dropout prevention work at
the American Institutes for Research.
Students with poor attendance records;
behavior issues, including meeting with
the principal or getting suspended; and
who continually fail or do not perform
well in the classroom may be more
likely to drop out of school at an early
age.
It should be noted that ABCs are only
one measure of a child’s potential graduation rate. But early intervention by
teachers, coaches or tutors may help
steer students down different, more successful paths.
Workshop helps in finding World War I ancestors
NASHVILLE — Local students and families wishing to know
more about their World War I ancestors now have an opportunity to do so.
The Tennessee State Library and Archives is hosting a workshop April 2 geared toward helping people learn more about
those long-ago relatives, which represented more than one quarter of the country’s male population from the ages of 18 to 31
during that time.
According to the National Archives, about 2 million Americans
served overseas during the conflict from 1914-1918. That means
many Americans have ancestors who fought during World War
I.
Library and Archives’ director of public services Gordon Belt
will lead the workshop from 9:30-11 a.m. He will use a case
study from his own family history to retrace the march of Tennesseans to the war’s front lines.
The workshop will be held in the Library and Archives auditorium, which is located at 403 Seventh Avenue North, directly
west of the State Capitol building in downtown Nashville.
Although the event is free and open to the public, reservations
are required due to limited seating in the auditorium.
To register, visit tennesseegreatwar.eventbrite.com. Free parking is available around the Library and Archives building.

three years ago and it opened up a
whole new world for me. I had purchased a new camera and didn’t understand what it could do, but the club had a

the members were very eager and willing
to help me with my

improve their photography, whether it be

been invaluable to me
as the owner-designer
of a small web design
company.
My husband and I

recently started a

Rich
all the printed material
which includes pictures of what a buyer can expect their
newly purchased plant to look like. Oh, it
is so tempting to copy some of the wonderful pictures I see of plants on some of the
nursery sites! But, you know what? That
would be stealing someone else’s property,
something they have spent time and effort
on. Maybe they have spent a lot of time
and money over the years to get to that
level of photography expertise. Many of
the photos are copyrighted and it is downright illegal to copy them and use them, especially if you are going to use them for
commercial purposes. Even though it
might not be illegal to copy pictures that
aren’t copyrighted, it certainly is not ethical. In short, if you want to use a picture
that is on the internet, ask for permission to
do so.
Now this brings me to my present prob-

lem of obtaining the photos I need. Since
most of our plants are young, or even dormant, it is not possible for me to take great
pictures in February or before our plants
are blooming. One avenue to explore is to
purchase stock photos. As a web designer I
am very familiar with that and use stock
photos for newsletters and occasionally for
websites. There are a number of agencies
online that sell stock photography (as well
as videos and illustrative content). These
stock images are graphic content that has
been submitted by photographers and
artists whose work has been judged to be
of professional quality. You might think
that this is an expensive way to go, but it
isn’t. It gets more expensive though if you
are going to use them for magazines, billboards, and such. For my use, I have never
paid over $2 for a photo.
Unfortunately, I can’t find many stock
photos that I can use for the nursery busi-
ness. One reason is that I want to be sure
that the picture is an accurate representation of a particular variety of plant and I
can’t know that without knowing the scientific name, and the stock photos don’t give
the scientific name of plants.
Well, this leads me back to square one.
You might see me around town this spring
when the dogwoods, forsythias, and saucer
magnolias bloom. I will be looking for
great plants that people have in their yards
and I will ask for their permission before
photographing their pride and joys. And
what a great way to meet people!

Bryan Symphony features guest violinist Rachel Barton Pine
COOKEVILLE — The Bryan Symphony Orchestra will feature internationally renowned violinist, Rachel
Barton Pine, as soloist on Sunday afternoon, March 20. Pine will perform
Beethoven’s “Violin Concerto in D
major” with the orchestra, who will also
play Franz Schubert’s “Tragic” Symphony. Pine is an American violinist
who made her solo debut with
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at
age 10, and was the first American and
youngest ever gold medal winner of the
International Johann Sebastian Bach
Competition.
The Washington Post writes that she
“displays a power and confidence that
puts her in the top echelon.” She tours
worldwide as a soloist with prestigious
orchestras, and has an active recording
Rachel Barton Pine
career, having recorded the Beethoven
Concerto recently with the Royal Philharmonic in London. She founded and
has run The Rachel Elizabeth Barton
Foundation since 2001 which provides
services and funding to promote classical music education and performances.
Pine is famous for playing “outside the
box” and performs on electric violin in
her own heavy metal band.
“Bringing Rachel Barton Pine to
Cookeville is a fantastic way to show
the many sides of classical musicians.
She is an inspiring person, and her talent seemingly knows no boundaries,”
BSO conductor Dan Allcott said.
The Sunday performance will begin at
3 p.m. in Wattenbarger Auditorium,
Bryan Fine Arts Building at Tennessee
Tech.
This program and a four day residency
at Tennessee Tech is generously sponsored by Centerstage at TTU. Additional concert sponsors for Sunday

Burns.
Tickets are $36 for adults and $32 for
seniors 65 and up, and $10 for students
25 and under. Call 931-525-2633 for
reservations.
Audience members have a chance to
see the “metal” side of Pine. As a part
of her residency, the Bryan Symphony
Orchestra Association will hold a special Symphony Social on Friday, March
18, from 7-9 p.m. at the Bryan Fine Arts
Building. The social will include a mini
performance of crossover and heavy
metal on violin featuring Rachel Barton
Pine. Tickets are $30 if reserved in advance/$35 at the door. Please call 931525-2633 to RSVP to the social.

Nonprofits encouraged to register for The Big Payback
UPPER CUMBERLAND — More
than 14,400 donors came together in a
big way last year to “pay back” nonprofits in the region, raising more than
$2.65 million in just one day as part of
The Big Payback. That’s why The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee is bringing back The Big
Payback for its third year on Tuesday,
May 3, for what is hoped to be the
biggest event yet. Nonprofits — including schools and religious institutions —

The Big Payback is a communitywide, online giving day designed to

DEAR NEEDS TO STAND
UP: As your friend may probably be already aware, abuse
doesn’t stay at the same level. It
can escalate from verbal abuse
to pushing and slapping to serious physical harm and sometimes even death. That’s why
this woman’s friends should assure her they stand with her, and
try to convince her to contact
the National Domestic Violence
Hotline (800-799-7233; thehotline.org) and arrange a safe and
effective escape plan. Trained
advocates at the hotline have
told me that not every caller will
leave after the first — or even
the second — episode of violence, but at least she will know
what she needs to do.
If she comes to you injured,
get her to an emergency room
for treatment and so that her
wounds can be photographed. If
she shows up at work with
bruises, it’s time to talk to
human resources to see if you
can get her some help, but I
would not advise contacting her
husband’s employer.
DEAR ABBY: I’m a happily
married gay man living in metro
Atlanta. My 50th high school
reunion is approaching and I
want to take my husband. The
reunion is being held in a small
rural town in the Midwest. Of
course, I haven’t lived there in
50 years, but I go there occasionally for family events.
I come from a large family,
lots of brothers and sisters,
nieces and nephews, and grandnieces and grandnephews, many
of whom still live in my hometown. I don’t know if all of
them know about my situation
and I’m not that concerned, but
I am concerned about smalltown gossip that can be meanspirited. I wouldn’t want anyone
to be hurt.
I know my relatives interact
professionally and personally
with some of my classmates and
their descendants. Am I being
overly concerned, or should I
just go and let the chips fall
where they may? That’s the
thing about coming out as gay
— it’s an ongoing process, even
at my age. — GAY GRADUATE IN GEORGIA
DEAR GAY GRADUATE:
Go to the reunion, take your
husband and have a good time.
If anyone has a problem with
the fact that you are homosexual
and married, do not make it
your problem. We can’t control
what someone might say behind
our backs. But whatever is said
is a reflection on the speaker —
not us or our relatives. Because
people live in small towns does
not mean they are all smallminded.

“They are all Masters in their

this work can only enhance a

back,” said Ellen Lehman, president of
the Community Foundation of Middle
Tennessee. “Nonprofits do life-changing work every day across Middle Tennessee, and it’s important we recognize
the positive impact they have in our
own backyards by supporting their efforts.”
Gifts from the public will be boosted
with additional funds from sponsors of
The Big Payback. Nonprofits will vie
for financial incentives, bonus dona-
tions and additional prizes. An online
leaderboard will track donations in realtime.
Donors will be able to view and select
from participating organizations based
on location and focus area, such as animals, education, health, arts and more.
Donors can support multiple organizations and make gifts of any size, from
$10 and up.
Nonprofits, schools, and religious institutions found success in last year’s
giving day helping to raise much-
needed funds for particular needs such
as new windows for a building, computers for a classroom, or specific programming in support of a mission.
There is no cost for nonprofits to participate. The past two years, donors supporting The Big Payback have ensured
no participating organization walked
away empty handed.
Organizations interested in participating in The Big Payback should register
by March 18. Details can be found at

Elvis Presley
estate sues
Las Vegas
casino
LAS VEGAS (AP) — The
Elvis Presley estate has filed a
lawsuit against a Las Vegas
casino-hotel that is holding artifacts and memorabilia involving
the King as part of a leasing dispute.
Elvis Presley Enterprises Inc.
filed the lawsuit Monday in
Clark County District Court
seeking to retrieve stage outfits,
jewelry, letters and a high school
yearbook, among other artifacts
from the career, home and wedding of Elvis.
The estate and business group is
trying to get back hundreds of
items it loaned to the muchhyped “Graceland Presents
Elvis” attraction at the Westgate
Las Vegas Resort and Casino.
The off-Strip property took control of the items last month when
it shut down the attraction that includes a museum exhibit, wedding chapel and theater. The
move came after the third-party
operator, Exhibit A Circle, said it
was quitting.
The lawsuit accused the casino
of holding the valuables hostage
for leverage in its leasing dispute
with Exhibit A Circle, noting the
estate has been cut off from a security camera that allowed it to
monitor the items. It’s asking the
court to order the items be returned and seeks punitive damages.

‘Spring Break for nerds’ kicks off in Austin
By MAE ANDERSON
AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — The smell of
BBQ is in the air and talk about virtual
reality, online privacy and the latest hot
apps is on everyone’s minds. It’s time
again for South by Southwest Interactive, an annual tech festival dubbed
“Spring Break for nerds.”
The five-day festival, which kicked off
Friday in Austin, Texas, is more freewheeling than other tech conferences
like CES in Las Vegas and Mobile World
Congress in Barcelona, Spain. It’s where
St. Bernards delivering Mophie smartphone chargers to festival goers — as the
charger maker arranged last year — can
garner as much buzz as the apps brought
to fame there, including Foursquare in
2009 and Twitter in 2007.
“It’s an interesting place to see what
types of things are bubbling up in technology,” said Ryan Hoover, founder of
Product Hunt, a service for people to rate
new tech products. “It has this mixture
or collision of technology and entertainment. When different types of minds and
people are connecting together, new
ideas come out.”
The festival has grown larger and more
corporate over the years, with sponsors
including McDonald’s and Samsung, but
it still draws an eclectic crowd of movers
and shakers in the tech industry each
year.
This year’s sessions include one on a
futuristic transportation system, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, which
aims to move people in a capsule inside
an enclosed tube track at 760 miles per
hour — faster than commercial airliners.
Twitter co-founder Biz Stone will discuss the evolution of online search, while
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” director J.J. Abrams and “The Jinx” director
Andrew Jarecki will tout Jarecki’s new
app for video editing and sharing,
KnowMe.
Even President Obama will make an
appearance, the first for a U.S. president
at the festival. He plans to talk about
civic engagement with the editor-inchief of The Texas Tribune, a nonprofit
news outlet based in Austin.
Ethan Kurzweil, a Bessemer venture
capitalist who has attended the festival
for eight years, said that while South by

Southwest Interactive is no longer the little-known yet influential festival it once
was, “you can still hear people talking
about the very-bleeding-edge consumer
tech trends.”
South by Southwest Interactive is part
of the larger SXSW festival, which also
features sections for movies, music and
games over 10 days. The interactive conference drew 33,825 registrants from
more than 80 countries last year; the
combined festival had about 80,000.
Organizers drew criticism several
months ago when, faced with threats,
they canceled two panels on harassment
in online video games. In response, the
festival will hold a daylong “online harassment summit” on Saturday, with a
slate of panels examining the problem of
online harassment.
Another hot topic will be the U.S. government’s demands that Apple create a
software program to bypass security features in an iPhone used by one of the San
Bernardino mass shooters. One panel
will focus on ways to improve the relationship between the government and the
tech industry, while preserving privacy
and security.
And virtual reality will continue to garner buzz, particularly as many systems
such as Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and Sony
Playstation VR are expected to hit the
market this year. Some sessions will be
part of the SXSW gaming festival, which
runs March 17 to 19. But the interactive
festival will have such panels as “Holy
light field! Creating lifelike presence in
VR.” And Samsung will show off VR
chairs that offer motion simulation as
people wear Samsung’s $100 VR headset, Gear VR.

Infamous W.K. Henderson returns to Cookeville
By BOB MCMILLAN
HERALD-CITIZEN Staff
Looking back in history, here
were some of the happenings in
the Cookeville area for the week
of March 13-19, as recorded in
the pages of the Herald-Citizen
1935
The infamous W.K. Henderson
was in Cookeville this week. The
newspaper commented, “Fortunately for Cookeville, Mr. Henderson didn’t stay long and he
didn’t say when he’ll be back.”
Just a year or so again, Henderson, owner of a Shreveport, La.,
radio station, launched a national
campaign to put chain stores and
mail order houses out of business. Hundreds of grocerymen
and dry goods store owners contributed to Henderson’s “war
chest.”
Then, to their dismay, they
learned that Henderson had
taken the money and opened his
own mail order coffee business.
He apparently somehow escaped
prosecution and now travels extensively.
Eastern Airlines mail pilot Paul
Charles was blown 100 miles off
course in a storm and found himself over Putnam County this
week, late in the night, and perilously low on fuel.
He buzzed the town, trying to
get someone’s attention for help.
Service station operator Clarence
Stone heard him. So did Comer
Cannon, Harry Emory and Billie
Chapin. Stone and the other
group rushed separately to the
airfield north of town.
In the dark, Stone built a fire to
light the landing field. Meanwhile, the other trio lined the
strip with their cars and turned
their headlights on. Just before
dawn, Charles landed his biplane
safely.
1941
A nine-year-old boy, Everett
Grider, was burned this week
trying to save his father’s wagon.
The family rode the wagon to
town from their home four miles
south of town and parked it near
the town stockyards, leaving
Everett there to watch his two
young brothers.
An unidentified youth rode by
the wagon on a bicycle and
tossed in a lit match. Hay in the
bottom of the wagon blazed up.
The boy snatched out his two
brothers, and then tired to save
the wagon, badly burning his
legs and hands in the process.
He is expected to heal completely. Meanwhile, police chief
X.B. Haynie is investigating the
fire. He says he’s learned that the
same wagon was set afire near
the same spot three weeks ago.
Former Cookeville resident
Robert E. Lee died this week of
a heart attack at his home in
Columbus, Miss. He was 66.
He moved to Cookeville as a
boy and grew up here, becoming
a traveling gravel salesman. He
had been living in Mississippi
for the past 20 years.
He was the son of Capt. and
Mrs. Zeb P. Lee. Needless to say,
his father was a Confederate veteran. (March 13, 1941)
1946
Hugh Smith Hargis, 72, the
President of Citizens Bank, died
this week at his home on Broad
Street after a short heart ailment.
He’d suffered the same problem two years ago but recovered
and returned to work. He was
back at his desk last week when
it flared up again and he was
taken to his home, where he died
a short time later.
Born in Granville in 1874, he
came to Cookeville in 1906 with
his new wife, Vallie. He became
a traveling salesman and later, in
1914, opened Citizen’s Bank. He
had been its president ever since.
William H. Woodfield, the Imperial Potentate of the North
American Shriners, passed
through town this week and local
shriners threw together a quick
luncheon at the TPI Cafe in his
honor.
Among local shriners present
were Sam Bartlett, Dero Brown,
Campbell Lee, Carmel Brown,
Hubert Crawford, O.C. Masters,
W.T. Sewell, Dewey Ramsey
and Comer Cannon. (March 14,
1946)
1954
A Juilliard graduate hailed in
Europe as a gifted world-class
pianist, Joan Holley, will perform in Derryberry Hall at TPI
this week for the college’s last
concert of the season.
In other musical entertainment
this week, a chorus of over 600
area elementary students will
sing in the Tech Memorial
Gymnasium
in
“America
Sings.”
The presentation includes a series of historical skits ranging
from the Pilgrim’s landing to
cowboys roping stray dogies to
a circus big top with “elephants” and a “man on a trapeze.”
There’ll also be a high school
chorus, two school bands and a
string band.
Pictured on page one advertising the event are Edgar Carson
Butler dressed as a pirate and
Clara Faye Neal testing the
point of her cutlass. (March 19.
1954)
1960
Cookeville General Hospital
graduated another 17 student
nurses this week, and in a special
ceremony at Broad Street Church
of Christ, Putnam School Supt.
Eddie Watson ‘capped’ the new
students.
Among them were Mrs. Arvis
Lee, Mrs. Joyce Haney, Miss
Wyeath McCormick, Miss Myra
Sue Taylor and Mrs. Estelle Garrison.
In its weekly “Town Topics”
column, the newspaper comments on the state of
Cookeville’s
winter-ruined
streets. The city council this
week announced that crews have
begun filling potholes.
But the newspaper comments
that a more systematic routine is
needed. It says that city streets
have fallen into such disrepair
over the winter that each motorist
in the city pays an average of $10
a month fixing damage from potholes. (March 13, 1960)
1974
The Putnam School Board
meets this week to decide
whether to expand an early education program to schools across
the county.
It’s now limited to just
Cookeville, where federal Model
Cities dollars operate it, offering
low-income working parents a
place to leave their pre-school
children each day.
School officials have proposed
to expand the program countywide for a cost of $81,000. If the
board approves it, it’s unclear
how well the idea will be received by the Putnam County
Court, which controls the purse
strings.
Showing at the Varsity Cinema
this week: It’s Clint Eastwood as
Dirty Harry in “Magnum Force.”
(March 13, 1974)
1984
Putnam County Executive John
Gentry says he’s ready to propose to the Putnam County Commission that the county take over
half the cost of operating the
Cookeville Animal Shelter to
give county residents a humane
way to dispose of stray dogs and
cats.
Presently, only city residents are
allowed to bring strays to the
shelter because when it was created, the county declined to participate.
But Gentry says residents in
rural Putnam County are being
plagued by stray dogs and something needs to be done about the
problem.
The last time he approached the
commissioners on the matter, one
suggested that the best way for
residents to deal with strays is to
“shoot them.”

Peter Frampton on that crazy summer 40 years ago
By MARK KENNEDY
AP Entertainment Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — It’s been 40
years since Peter Frampton’s life was
turned upside down — in a good, crazy
way.
The former Humble Pie member was
enjoying some modest success as a
solo artist when he followed the thenconventional wisdom and followed up
his four studio albums with a double
live album.
That’s when all hell broke loose.
“Be careful what you wish for,” says
Frampton now with a rueful smile.
Within a month of its January 1976
release, the album “Frampton Comes
Alive!” was in the Top 10 and getting
stronger as the weather warmed. He
spent a record 17 weeks at the top of
the charts, thanks to the singles “Show
Me the Way,” ‘’Baby, I Love Your
Way” and the 14-minute “Do You Feel
Like We Do,” with its distinctive distorted vocal effect.
One day, his manager called and
asked if he was sitting down.
“I said, ‘Yeah.’
He said, ‘Well,
you’ve just made
history. It’s the
biggest-selling
album of all time.
You’ve just beaten
Frampton
Carole King’s ‘Tapestry’ record,’” Frampton said.
“That’s when I got nervous and a little
bit anxious because to have the No. 1
album was unbelievable. I mean, I
never, ever thought that I could approach that. But then to hear that, that’s
sort of surreal.”
The English-born Frampton, now 65,
is celebrating that crazy summer with
a new release, “Acoustic Classics,” a
CD of stripped-down versions of his
best-known songs that includes one
new tune, “All Down to Me.” He
wanted his beloved songs to sound
fresh and intimate, as if they were written the night before.
“I was very pleased that the songs
held up,” said the singer-guitarist.
“Very early on, I learned that you can
have a great band, you can have a great
producer, great studio, everything can
be right, but if you don’t have great
songs, you’ve got nothing.”
After the monster success of the 1976
live album, the singer’s big hair and
good looks led his record company to
repackage him as a pop star. His next
album was rushed, against his objections, and didn’t do as well. Nothing
could.
“I’ve learned that a pop star’s career
is about 18 months but a musician’s career lasts a lifetime. I kind of morphed
— as quickly as I could — into a musician,” he said. “It was a crazy period.”
Gordon Kennedy, a Nashville, Tennessee-based songwriter and musician
who has written songs for Eric Clapton, Garth Brooks and Ricky Skaggs,
has worked with Frampton for 16
years. He calls him “above everything
else, this ferocious musician.”
“He is a guy who, in some ways, had
to overcome his own image. And it
wasn’t an image that he necessarily
created,” said Kennedy. “All the while,
he’s just wanting to play guitar.”
Over the years, Frampton acted a little — he had a part in “Almost Famous” and mocked himself in Geico
ads — and worked with George Harrison and toured with old friend David
Bowie, whom he had known since he
was 12.
Bowie, who invited Frampton on his
Glass Spider Tour, was a mentor. “For
all of us, we’ve lost a genius, a one-ofa-kind.
He taught so many people how to
redirect your career — including me,”
Frampton said.
Redemption came in 2007 when
Frampton’s instrumental album “Fingerprints” won a Grammy Award, his
first. “I was speechless at that time be-
cause it meant so much to me to get
that vote of confidence as a player,” he
said.
“Over the last few years — since
‘Fingerprints’ — things kind of sped
up. There’s more demand for me out
there live. I’ve been working really
well every year. It’s fantastic because
I love to play live.”
Frampton these days lives in
Nashville, Tennessee, and is father to
four kids, the youngest a college student at 19. He’s come to terms with the
album that defined his career.
“When I kick the bucket, the first sentence will be, ‘known for the live
album ‘Frampton Comes Alive!’ I
know that,” he said. He also knows
how beloved his songs are, especially
“Baby, I Love Your Way.”
“I have actually met children conceived to that song,” he said, laughing.
“It was a very personal song to me and
made me realize the more personal you
make it, the more everybody else can
see that in themselves.”

Feds invest nearly $7M in small
business to boost clean tech
By SUSAN MONTOYA BRYAN
Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The federal
government is investing nearly $7 million in 33
small businesses across the country to build partnerships with national laboratories in hopes of
speeding up development of clean energy technology, the U.S. Department of Energy announced
Thursday.
The selected businesses represent only a fraction
of the hundreds that applied to participate in the
first round of a new small business voucher pilot
project. They represent 20 different states and will
be working with nine national labs.
As part of the pilot, another $13 million in vouchers will be awarded to small businesses in subsequent rounds, and officials have asked for a budget
increase for the next fiscal year to expand the project.
Dave Danielson, an assistant secretary with the
Energy Department, said the nation’s labs are science powerhouses that have cutting-edge supercomputers, high-tech laser facilities and some of
the most brilliant minds on the planet — all strategic advantages that the U.S. has in the global race
to develop clean energy technologies.
“But if we really want to accelerate our transition
to a low-carbon economy, we have to accelerate the
process of lab technology reaching the market and
help our labs to collaborate with the private sector,”
Danielson said during a conference call with reporters.
That’s where the small businesses come in.
Aside from bringing game-changing technology
to the market faster, he said the Department of Energy is looking to double the number of small businesses that are working with the national labs over
the next year.
The small businesses can use the vouchers —
anywhere from $50,000 to $300,000 — to do collaborative research with the labs or to seek lab assistance. That could include working on prototypes
or validating innovations that the businesses have
already developed.
The focus will be on advanced manufacturing,
building and vehicle technologies, fuels cells and
a range of renewable energy sources.
The project also will boost economic development around the country, supporters say.
At Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque,
Santa Fe, New Mexico-based iBeam Materials was
among the businesses to show off their work Thursday. iBeam is developing new LED products for
lighting, displays and wearable electronics.
Other labs participating in the first round include
the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Colorado, Lawrence Berkeley in California, Oak
Ridge in Tennessee and the Pacific Northwest lab
in Washington.
Amazon leases 20 jets to
build out logistics network
NEW YORK (AP) — Amazon is taking to the
skies.
The e-commerce powerhouse has finalized an
agreement to lease 20 Boeing jets from Air Transport Services Group Inc. as it builds out its U.S. delivery capabilities.
Amazon has been investing heavily in its shipping
infrastructure, adding sorting centers, which sort
packages by zip code and deliver them to post offices. And it has started to roll out thousands of
trucks to speed up package delivery from its warehouses to the sorting centers.
Amazon says the goal is not to compete with
package delivery carriers such as FedEx Corp. and
UPS but work on improving its own logistics to
offer faster delivery for customers as well as providing shipping services for third-party sellers on
the site, a service called Fulfilled by Amazon. Amazon’s $99 annual Prime loyalty program offers free
two-day shipping on many items.
Air Transport Services said the company had been
working on the agreement with Amazon since last
summer.
Amazon will lease 20 747 freighter jets. The 20
leases are for five to seven years. The agreement
for the operation of the aircraft will be for five
years.
Amazon is also taking a stake in the Wilmington,
Ohio-based company. It will get warrants to buy
during a five-year period up to 19.9 percent of the
company’s shares at $9.73 per share.
Dave Clark, Amazon’s senior vice president of
worldwide operations and customer service, said
in an emailed statement that the agreement will
help supplement its existing delivery network and
ensure the company has the air cargo capacity to
support one- and two-day delivery for its customers.
Shares of Air Transport Services jumped 17 percent to close at $13.73. Earlier the stock reached
$14.90, an all-time high. Amazon.com Inc. shares
dipped 79 cents to $559.47. Shares of FedEx and
UPS both edged down about 1 percent, to $141.98
and $99.56, respectively.
NASHVILLE – With tax season in full swing,
the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance (TDCI) shares three essential guidelines
to help consumers efficiently navigate the income tax filing process.
“We want Tennesseans to make the most of
their income tax refunds,” TDCI Deputy Commissioner Bill Giannini said. “Our Division of
Consumer Affairs and Board of Accountancy
offer great resources to help keep your money
out of the pocket of scammers.”
TDCI encourages Tennesseans to consider the
following when submitting income taxes:
1. Get your refund fast through direct deposit.
Did you know that your income tax refund can
be electronically deposited into your financial account for free? The Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) can automatically deposit your refund into
up to three separate accounts if you set up direct
deposit when you file your return. Click here to
learn how.??2. File your taxes for free.
If your income is $54,000 or less, if you are 60years-old or older, or if you have a disability or
speak limited English, you can generally get free
tax preparation assistance at a Volunteer Income
Tax Assistance (VITA) location near you. The
IRS offers instructions to help you get started.
If you decide to do it yourself:
• If your income is $62,000 or less, you can use
any one of several major tax preparation software
products, offered through the Free File Alliance,
to prepare and file your return for free. The Free
File Alliance is a nonprofit coalition of industry
leading tax software companies partnered with
the IRS to help Americans prepare and e-file
their federal tax returns for free. If your income
is more than $62,000, you can still download free
tax filing forms through the IRS.
• There are many easy-to-use tax preparation
software products on the market that will help
you walk through the tax filing process step-bystep. These are not free, but they may be less expensive than paying someone to file your return
for you.
Tip: Depending on your age, income and filing
status, you may not be required to file a return.
Click here to see if you are required to file a tax
return.?
3. Beware potential tax fraud.
Tax fraud is becoming increasingly common.
According to the Consumer Financial Protection
Bureau, from 2011 through 2013, the IRS
stopped 14.6 million suspicious tax returns.
Here are a few ways to protect yourself from
fraud:
• File electronically and request that your refund
be deposited directly into your account.
• Vet your Certified Public Accountant (CPA).
If you decide to hire a CPA, you may contact the
Tennessee Board of Accountancy to find out if
complaints or disciplinary actions have been
filed against him/her. Contact the Tennessee
Board
of
Accountancy
at
accountancy.board@tn.gov or 888-453-6150.
Learn more at www.tn.gov/regboards. • Use ID theft prevention measures. Don’t carry
your social security card with you. Also, don’t
carry your Medicare card unless you’re going to
a doctor for the first time.
• Check your credit report. You can review your
credit report for free every 12 months at
www.AnnualCreditReport.com, or by calling
877-322-8228.
• Stay alert for phone scams.?The IRS will not:
• Call or email you to ask for personal information.
• Demand immediate payment without first
sending you a bill in the mail and giving you an
opportunity to question or appeal the amount
they say you owe.
• Require you use a specific payment method
for taxes, like a prepaid debit card.
• Ask for credit card information over the
phone.
• Threaten to have you arrested for not paying.
If any of these scams happen to you, report it to
the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) at 1-800-366-4484 or
www.treasury.gov/tigta. If you suspect you’ve
been a victim of identity theft involving your income tax return, report it to the IRS.

reporting other forms of identity theft, visit

Pre-paid card users, under
scrutiny, find tax refunds frozen
PHOENIX (AP) — Thousands of people have
had their prepaid debit cards frozen when they
try to direct their tax refund to their accounts, a
result of financial industry efforts to combat an
escalation in tax fraud.
It’s keeping people from their money, and delaying access to much-anticipated tax refunds.
People who rely on prepaid debit card accounts
are often poorer Americans who don’t have traditional bank accounts.
Shannon King had her money frozen for two
weeks. She had planned to use it for car repairs
and to help pay for a move, both of which then
had to be delayed. “It was very frustrating,” King
said.
King has a Walmart MoneyCard, which is run
by Green Dot. She said after her refund was deposited, Green Dot froze the card and asked her
to send a picture of her Tennessee state identification card to verify the account. The process to
release the money took more than two weeks, she
had to submit photos of her ID a number of times
— Green Dot said they weren’t readable — and
she says she spent hours on the phone with customer service agents to resolve the problem.
The Associated Press reviewed documents sent
to Green Dot by King, including her ID picture,
and they appeared clear.
Prepaid debit card companies Green Dot, NetSpend and others say the problems are the result
of tighter fraud protection measures. Both Green
Dot and Walmart have apologized, but emphasized the measures were there to protect their customers.
“We’re working with the company to ensure
that any customer service issues are resolved as
quickly as possible,” a spokeswoman for Walmart said.
The card companies, along with the IRS, are
trying to stem a tide of tax fraud by identity
thieves. Criminals file bogus tax returns using
other people’s identities, claim a refund and collect the money. Many people do not know they
are a victim until they try to file a legitimate return and are unable to.
The fraudsters often use prepaid debit cards to
pull off their scams because the accounts can be
relatively anonymous.
For example, in 2012 a Miami man was sentenced to five years in prison and three additional
years of probation for filing nearly 500 fraudulent
tax returns. Instead of having the refunds deposited in a bank or mailed, he had them electronically deposited to prepaid debit cards,
including Green Dot, and gift cards. When he
was arrested, prosecutors say the man had 11
Wal-Mart money cards loaded with more than
$32,000 from fraudulent returns.
Tax and wage-related fraud was the most common form of identity theft reported to the FTC in
2015. It’s on the rise — about 45 percent of the
identity theft complaints to the FTC last year
were tax or wage-related, up from 33 percent in
2014 and 30 percent in 2013.
The IRS says tax-related identity theft is one of
its biggest challenges. In 2015, it stopped 1.4 million confirmed identity theft returns, totaling $8.7
billion. For criminals, the IRS makes for a quick,
easy score: the IRS processes most returns in less
than 21 days, and the average refund was $2,797
last year.
To combat the problem, the IRS held a security
summit last year with states and tax-industry representatives to find ways to solve the problem together. As a result, efforts to fight fraud have
intensified this year and banks and other prepaid
debit card companies are tightening their protections.
The IRS and other industry representatives
would not say if account delays or freezes were
requested or required. But the IRS did say that it
is working with banks and debit card issuers to
obtain information that would be helpful in detecting and preventing fraud.
Green Dot estimates that 9,000 customers have
had their accounts blocked this season, representing 0.2 percent of their customers. NetSpend, the
second largest issuer, said they also have been
freezing accounts, but declined to give a number
impacted. American Express, which issues a prepaid debit card known as American Express
Serve, also said it has been stepping up fraud protection measures.
A spokeswoman with American Express said
customers can minimize the chances of being
flagged for fraud by making sure their personal
identification information on the account
matches the information on their tax forms. And
Jackson Hewitt, which uses American Express
cards for its customers, requires two forms of ID
to receive a prepaid bank product to help cut
down on fraud.

Is it six

paychecks?
D
ear Dave: Do I set
aside six months’
worth of paychecks
or the amount of my bills for
six months when it’s time to
save up my fully funded
emergency fund?
Steve
Dear Steve: In my plan,
Baby Step 3 is when I advise
people to
save up
Dave
three to
Says
six
months
of expenses in
a fully
loaded
emergency
fund.
This is
set aside
and not
Dave
touched
Ramsey
for any
reason
other than a true emergency.
It’s not a Bahamas fund or a
new living room furniture
fund. It’s an emergency fund.
It’s not an investment or fun
money; it’s insurance. Think
of your emergency fund as a
protective barrier that keeps
you from going into debt or
cashing out investments
when life throws bad things
your way.
How do you decide where
to land in the three to six
month range of expenses?
That depends on how much
risk your household has. If
there’s only one income in
the equation, you have more
risk, so you should skew
things toward six months.
Being self-employed or a
commissioned salesperson is
also a situation where this
would be true. If there are
two incomes, and both come
from steady, dependable
sources, you could fall into
the middle of that range or
even more toward the threemonth side.
Make sure your emergency
fund is easily accessible too.
A simple money market account with check-writing
privileges works fine. You
want to make sure you can
get your money quickly
when the need arises!
Dear Dave: Should I ever
consider a 5/1 adjustable loan
if I’m buying a house and
plan to pay it off in five
years?
Anonymous
Dear Anonymous: No! The
reason is you can never be
assured that you’re going to
pay it off in five years. If you
go into it with that mindset,
then you’re basically saying
you can predict the future
will be exactly how you want
it to be. That’s pretty naïve.
Your future will never be
what you think it will be. It’s
either going to be better or
worse, but your future will
never turn out exactly the
way you plan for it to be.
If you can’t buy a home
with cash, you need the stability of a 15-year, fixed rate
mortgage in your life. We’re
living in the lowest mortgage
interest rate environment in
about 50 years. I saw a 3.02
percent 15-year fixed rate
mortgage just the other day.
For those of you who have
not refinanced, if you’re staying in your home or you’re
sitting on an adjustable rate,
this is a great time to change
that. Still, people are sitting
around yawning like these
kinds of rates are going to be
around forever. It’s gone on
for a while now, but don’t let
that fool you into thinking
those kinds of rates are normal. They’re not going to last
forever. No, I would never under
any circumstances take an
adjustable rate mortgage.
Was that unclear? I hope not!

McDonald’s trial gives peek at
chain’s inner workings
By CANDICE CHOI
AP Food Industry Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — A pivotal trial against McDonald’s that began this week is providing a peek
into the inner workings of the maker of the Big
Mac.
The trial centers over whether McDonald’s exerts control over hiring and pay decisions for employees at restaurants run by its U.S. franchises.
The National Labor Relations Board contends the
company does, and should be considered a “joint
employer” along with franchisees.
Such a finding would be historic because it
would make McDonald’s liable for the labor practices at its more than 14,000 domestic restaurants
— 90 percent of which are franchised. And it
could open a path to unionization for workers by
giving labor groups a centralized target in McDonald’s Corp., rather than a patchwork of more
than 3,000 franchisees.
The trial stems from cases filed around the country on behalf of workers who said they were subject to retaliation or other unfair labor practices
for taking part in protests and strikes as part of
their campaign for an hourly wage of $15, as well
as for union representation. The push is being
backed by the Service Employees International
Union, and has made low wages a hot political
issue.
It’s expected to be a protracted legal fight, with
appeals likely from the losing side in court. Here
are some insights into McDonald’s from the opening statements this week in New York:
“HIRING TO WIN”
McDonald’s Corp. has an internal program
called “Hiring to Win” that grades job applicants
as “green,” ‘’yellow” or “red.” The program was
one of many examples cited by Jamie Rucker, a
lawyer for the labor board, as evidence of the control that McDonald’s exerts over labor decisions
at franchised restaurants. Joseph Hirsch, a lawyer
for McDonald’s franchisees in Philadelphia, said
franchisees suffer no consequences whether they
use the program or not.
“20 to 25 SECONDS”
McDonald’s has a manual describing the various
tasks that need to be handled in restaurants, and
details the speed with which they should be performed, Rucker said. Taking a customer’s order,
for instance, is supposed take 20 to 25 seconds.
Lawyers for franchisees said setting such standards is part of the franchising model.
Richard Brody, a lawyer for New York franchisees, said McDonald’s needs to protect its
image and deliver on the expectations people have
when they walk into one of its restaurants. He
asked the court to imagine ordering a Big Mac
that came with no “special sauce.”
“McDonald’s protects that brand like the mother
bear protects her cub,” Brody said.
OPERATIONS CONSULTANTS
McDonald’s uses “operations consultants” to
continuously monitor franchisees, Rucker said.
And he said franchisees can’t ignore what they
say, since the company has the power to terminate
their franchise agreements.
William Goldsmith, a lawyer for McDonald’s
Corp., said it’s possible that the board might find
a couple operations consultants who did or said
something that “crossed the lines between advice
and direction.”
But Goldsmith said that was expected given the
size of the organization, and that such transgressions do not amount to McDonald’s controlling
franchisees.
SOFTWARE AND FORMS
An employee’s hours are determined by a dynamic shift scheduling program, Rucker said.
Such programs are intended to tell managers the
optimal number of people they should have working based on sales.
Lawyers for McDonald’s and its franchisees said
the software is optional. They noted that such programs don’t take into account factors such as
whether there is a local parade or nearby construction. As such, franchisees can ignore whatever the
software recommends and do what they think is
best.
As for various forms provided by McDonald’s,
one franchisee lawyer compared it to borrowing
a book from a library. He said franchisees use McDonald’s materials because they’re free and come
from a reliable source, rather than having to pay
another party for the help.
McPAY
Rucker said McDonald’s offers a toolkit designed to help franchisees determine wages to stay
competitive. In one case, he said McDonald’s told
a franchisee to bring down the wages for its employees because they could be “disruptive” to
nearby McDonald’s.
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Tarla
Makaeff has fought Donald
Trump in court for six years.
Now, as
the Republican presidential
front-runner and his
lawyers try
to portray
the Southern Calif o r n i a
Makaeff
yoga instructor as
the face of a federal class-action lawsuit against Trump
University, she wants out.
On Friday, U.S. District
Judge Gonzalo Curiel considered Makaeff’s request to
withdraw from a lawsuit that
says Trump University seminars and instruction fleeced
students with unfilled promises to teach the secrets of real
estate success. Her attorneys
say Trump and his lawyers
have put her “through the
wringer.”
Trump called her a “horrible,
horrible witness” at a rally in
Arkansas last month. On social
media this week, his one-word
characterization of her request
to withdraw — “Disgraceful!”
— was retweeted more than
3,200 times.
Trump’s attorneys say the
lawsuit should be dismissed if
Makaeff is allowed to withdraw, arguing that their trial
strategy centers on her. They
identify her as “the critical
witness.”
Makaeff’s attorneys say
Trump’s argument that their
client is indispensable to the
billionaire’s defense “is illogical to the point of being nearly
incomprehensible.” They note
the judge allowed two plaintiffs to withdraw last year;
three others would remain.
Makaeff didn’t imagine she
would be subjected to criticism under the glare of a presidential
campaign,
her
attorneys say. She has been deposed for a total of nearly 16
hours and suffered anxiety
about finances after Trump
sued her for defamation, seeking $1 million.
Makaeff eventually prevailed
on the defamation claim, and a
judge ordered Trump last year
to pay $798,779 in her legal
fees.
The skirmish in one of three
lawsuits against Trump University comes as the case nears
trial, possibly this summer. A
trial date has not been set, but
a final pretrial conference is
scheduled for May 6 and
Trump appears on a list of defense witnesses who may testify at the trial.
Makaeff attended a three-day
“Fast Track to Foreclosure”
workshop for $1,495 in 2008
and later enrolled in the
“Trump Gold Elite” program
for $34,995, spending a total
of about $60,000 on seminars
in a year, her attorneys say. In
April 2010, she sued in San
Diego federal court.
Trump’s attorneys wrote that
Makaeff gave the instruction
high marks in surveys and
“simply did not put in the time,
work, and perseverance necessary to achieve success.”
Makaeff’s attorneys say the
yoga instructor was unaware
of Trump’s “false advertising”
when she completed the surveys and didn’t want to risk
alienating anyone who might
advance her career.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals sided with Makaeff
on the surveys when considering Trump’s defamation claim
in 2013, saying, “As the recent
Ponzi-scheme scandals involving onetime financial luminaries like Bernard Madoff and
Allen Stanford demonstrate,
victims of con artists often
sing the praises of their victimizers until the moment they realize they have been fleeced.”
Reminded of the Madoff
comparison during a recent debate, Trump said, “Give me a
break. You know what? Let’s
see what happens in court.”
GM buys software company to
speed autonomous car development
DETROIT (AP) — With
hopes of speeding development of self-driving cars, General Motors has acquired a
small software company that’s
been testing vehicles on the
streets of San Francisco.
The Detroit automaker says it
purchased Cruise Automation,
a 40-person firm that was
founded just three years ago.
The move, coupled with
GM’s in-house research,
should help the company in its
race with Google and others to
have autonomous cars start
transporting people on public
roadways.
GM wouldn’t give a timetable
for rolling out the technology,
but President Dan Ammann
said it would happen as soon as
the company can demonstrate
that the cars are ready.

UHS routs McMinn Central in semis
By THOMAS CORHERN
HERALD-CITIZEN Assistant Sports Editor
MURFREESBORO — All the talk entering Friday’s Class AA girls semifinal
was the potential showdown between
Miss Basketball finalists Akira Levy
from Upperman and Jacobi Lynn from
McMinn Central.
While the attention was focused there,
it was Lady Bees junior Abby Greenwood who stole the show.
Greenwood scored 19 points in Upperman’s 76-54 win over the Chargerettes
on Friday at Middle Tennessee State’s
Murphy Center, but it was her defensive
effort against Lynn that helped lead
UHS to the state championship game on
Saturday.
“That’s a great win,” said UHS head
coach Dana McWilliams. “McMinn
County is a team with so much winning
tradition, and we knew we were going
to have a fight. We struggled in the first
half and that had a lot to do with them.
In the second half, we came out ready
and I really thought the key was our defensive effort.”
Upperman (35-2) will face East
Nashville in the Class AA title game at
6 p.m. Saturday at Murphy Center.
It was all just a matter of everything
coming together in the semifinal victory.
“We knew we had shot the ball so
poorly on Thursday,” McWilliams said.
“That’s not a typical stat for this team.
We felt like things were going to look up
for us.”
Levy had another strong outing, scoring 22 points in the victory. She eclipsed
the 1,000-point mark in her career — as
a sophomore at that — with her final
basket of the contest with 3:15 remaining.
However, it was another start similar to
Thursday’s against Haywood County as
the Upperman sophomore spent much of
the first quarter on the bench after collecting two quick fouls.
Levy smiled and said, “I’ve got to stop
getting into foul trouble.”
McWilliams added, “She knows she’s
going to have to do a better job on that.
She’s such an aggressive player and so
excited about the game, we’ve got to
get her emotions in check early. It
seems like when she comes out in the
second half, she’s in a better frame of
mind.”
Lynn also scored 22 points to lead
McMinn Central (31-3), going 7-for-15
from the field and 7-for-9 from the freethrow line.
And for Greenwood to keep her there
took a monumental effort.
“That is not an easy task,” McWilliams
said. “I felt like she had to work for all
of those points. She got a couple of easy
baskets late, but before that, she was
working hard. Abby is our best defensive player. She’s always going to get
the tough assignment and she always
comes through for us.”
Greenwood smiled, “It wasn’t easy.
She’s a really good player.”
The game stayed close for most of the
first half. MCHS led 15-13 after the first
quarter, then Upperman outscored the
Chargerettes 21-15 in the second quarter
to take a 34-30 lead at halftime.
The Lady Bees then started to pull
away in the third quarter, outscoring
McMinn Central 26-14 in the third and
16-10 in the fourth.
Now, it’s on to the championship,
where Upperman has been before most
recently in 1999 and 2001.
“We know it’s going to be a tough battle on Saturday,” McWilliams said. “But
I know the girls are going to be focused,
they’re going to work hard, and we want
to come home with the gold ball.”

throws prove to be downfall

half, yet still finished the game with 19
points. Abby Greenwood picked up the
slack and worked her way to 18 points.
Gracie Maynord scored 13 once she was
able to find a rhythm beyond the arc. Lexie
Strickland pulled down eight rebounds, including some of the most impressive
boards of her career.
Any other night, any other gym, those efforts may just have been what was needed
to bring home the trophy.
But Saturday, against East Nashville, it
wasn’t to be.
The Lady Eagles forced Upperman into
17 turnovers, a very uncharacteristic stat
for the Lady Bees.
“That’s the most we’ve had this season,”
McWilliams said. “We average less than
10.
East Nashville was also able to get to the
free-throw line for 29 shots, hitting 23. Upperman was 9-for-15. That 14-point difference equaled the final margin, but that
wasn’t the only factor.
“They’re very athletic at every position,”
McWilliams said. “They have a lot of good
scorers and we ha just had a hard time
keeping them off the boards and off the
foul line.”
Even Thursday’s win against Haywood
didn’t prepare Upperman for what it saw
on Saturday.
Haywood was good, but the Lady Eagles
from East Nashville was something completely different.
They were fast, they were agile, they had
skills.
Tournament MVP Kaia Upton was 7-for10 from the floor, scoring 20 points, while
Quentarra Mitchell was 6-for-7 for 15
points. Erica Haynes-Overton scored 14
points and Le’Jzae Davidson scored 12.
As a team, they shot 50 percent from the
floor, but was 68.8 percent in the second
half.
East Nashville turned those 17 turnovers
into 18 points. The Lady Eagles had 18
fast-break points. They outrebounded Upperman 31-23.
The loss ended the Lady Bees’ 29-game
winning streak, ending their season at 353.

Asberry feels Lady Bees’
pain of losing championship
By BUDDY PEARSON
HERALD-CITIZEN Managing Editor
MURFREESBORO — So close.
Since 1999, the Upperman Lady Bees have played in
a state championship game on three occasions. Three
times Upperman has brought a silver ball back to Baxter
as the state runner-up.
The latest championship game appearance came on
Saturday night at Middle Tennessee’s Murphy Center
where the Lady Bees fell to East Nashville, 70-56, in the
Class AA girls state tournament.
“I’m thankful to be here. I’m excited the girls got to
play in three state tournament games and a championship game,” said UHS head coach Dana McWilliams.
“I’m disappointed I couldn’t have prepared them a little
bit better to be successful.”
In 1999, Upperman lost to Gleason, 48-43, in the Class
A state championship game. Ashley McCaleb had 14
points, Emily Christian 12 and Annie Hargis 10 for the
Lady Bees.
In 2001, Upperman fell to rival Jackson County, 4642. Christian, Kim Blankenship and Desiree Burden had
nine each while Heidi Mead had 8 for UHS.
Against East Nashville, Akira Levy had 19 points,
Abby Greenwood 18 and Gracie Maynord 13 for Upperman.
“There are a lot of teams that don’t get this far, that are
at home,” said Upperman assistant coach Amanda
(Austin) Asberry. “I’m proud. This is a huge accomplishment to get to this game. To get this far you want
to win one thing.”
Asberry knows all to well what it’s like to get to the
championship game and come up short. She was on the
1999 and 2001 state runner-up teams as a player and the
2016 runner-up team as a coach.
“I think it hurts a little bit worse as a coach,” said Asberry. “These girls have worked their tales off this year.
They are a great group of kids. They played so hard.”
Asberry knows what it’s like to experience the pain of
being so close only to come up a few points short of
making history for your respective school.
“They will learn a little later that this isn’t all that bad,
but it hurts tonight,” lamented Asberry. “I just wanted it
for them really bad. I knew they could do it. I know they
could do it. They have a lot left.”
Even though McWilliams never made it to the state tournament as a player, she has three runner-up finishes and
two final four appearances in her five trips to the state as
a coach. Still, losing the big game doesn’t get any easier.
“She’s probably right,” said McWilliams about
Austin’s statement of it hurting more as a coach than a
player. “I never made it as a player, but you hurt for
these kids.”
The Lady Bees have a history of going to the state tournament in closely related years. UHS went in 1999 and
2001 with a lot of the same players and then made backto-back trips in 2007 and 2008. With a talented group of
juniors and sophomores, McWilliams is hopeful this
year’s run to the state will be followed closely by many
more in the immediate future.
“We certainly hope so. It was a goal of ours to get these
seniors to a state tournament and we did that,” said
McWilliams. “They mean so much to our program, we
wanted them to be the group to win it, but we just fell
short.”
Riverdale routs Oak Ridge in AAA
MURFREESBORO (AP) — MVP
Anastasia Hayes scored 27 points in
leading Riverdale to its third Tennessee
Class AAA girls title in five years with
a 68-36 win over Oak Ridge on Saturday afternoon.
The Lady Warriors (32-4) also won
championships in 2012 and 2013, and
a team from Riverdale has won the past
five titles, including Blackman the past
two seasons. Riverdale’s title comes a
year after being banned from the postseason for attempting to purposely lose
a district game to avoid playing Blackman in a regional semifinal.
This season, Riverdale upset top-
ranked Blackman 73-66 in a regional
semifinal to advance.
Riverdale set a state tournament
record shooting 59.7 percent over three
games.
Alexis Whittington added 14 points,
and Brinae Alexander 10 for Riverdale
en route to its fifth title.

Lamb leads S. Greene to fifth title
MURFREESBORO (AP) — MVP Taylor Lamb scored 25 points in leading
South Greene to its fifth state title, but
first since 1992 with a 61-55 win over
previously unbeaten Gibson County in
the Tennessee Class A girls championship Saturday afternoon.
The sophomore Miss Basketball finalist
also grabbed nine rebounds.
Lyndsey Cutshaw added 11 points, and
Kinsley Wykle had 10 points and seven
assists for the Lady Rebels (35-4) who
shot 55 percent in winning their 11th
straight game.
Erin Lannom led Gibson County (37-1)
with 26 points, including six 3-pointers.
Lannom made two foul shots to give
Gibson County a 55-54 lead with 1:46
left, but seven seconds later T.K.
Franklin’s layup gave the lead back to
South Greene. The Lady Rebels then
sealed the win with five free throws
shots.
Briana Fields added 10 points for the
Lady Pioneers, and Justyce White had
nine points and eight rebounds.

CHS lacrosse still looking for first win
By BEN CRAVEN
HERALD-CITIZEN Sports Staff
COOKEVILLE — The Cookeville
Cavaliers were mere minutes away from
their first win of the season, before a pair
of late goals spoiled their evening.
The Cavs (0-4) picked up their fourth
loss of the season Friday night at
Cookeville High School as the Hendersonville Spartans scored two goals in the
last four minutes to tie and win the game
9-8.
“I thought we outground-balled them
all game,” CHS head coach Elliot
Woods commented. “When it comes
down to the critical plays, that one
ground-ball is what happened, and
(Hendersonville) just made some more
plays on the offensive end than we did.
We got our shots, their (goalie) made
some saves, but they got some better
looks. We’ve got to work on defense
when guys are closing in on the goal, but
we’re getting there. It’s just two teams
playing hard. It’s unfortunate, but give
them all the credit. They played hard.”
The Cavs got started out a little slowly
as the Spartans scored the first two
goals, but the Cavs weren’t about to let
the game turn into a blowout. AJ Holland made sure the Cavs made it out of
the first quarter with a goal, assisted by
Justin Eberle, and after another goal
from the Spartans, Holland took a pass
from Boone King and cut the lead to one
point again with 10:20 in the second.
The Spartans scored again pretty
quickly, but with 5:47 in the half, Colbin
Jones was able to take the ball through
the middle and score unassisted to bring
the Cavs within one before halftime.
The Cavs came out of the break a different team as they stepped up their defense.
The first goal of the third quarter didn’t
come until there were just over three
minutes remaining in the period. The
Cavs finally managed to even the playing field as Eberle came around the
crease unassisted and tied the game at
four apiece.
The Cavs and the Spartans traded goals
again before Joshua Varley gave the
Cavs their first lead of the game at 7-6
with 6:37 to go in the game.
The last four minutes of the game were
a frenzy of loose balls and exciting
CHS: Opens season
Thursday afternoon
From Page F1
Middleton has worked hard to
improve his defense to match
his strong throwing arm. Middleton will get the nod as the
starter.
Also seeing plenty of time
will be sophomore Luke
Hayslette. Hayslette is a plus
defender with a good arm and
should be a big bat in the future. Hayslette also pitches.
The infield sees some old
faces at new positions. Senior
Charles Harris (.237), a plus
defender, moves from shortstop to third base. “Chuck” is
a glue guy that tends to hold
things together on the infield
dirt. He has had some tough
luck at the plate but hits the
ball hard.
Also at third base is sophomore Joshua South, who was
primarily a pitcher last year.
South will get at bats and see
the field at third base, first
base, and in the outfield.
Junior A’darius Pugh (.367 –
24 of 25 SB), an all-district
performer last year in centerfield, moves to shortstop. An
athletic player who really
helped shore up the outfield
defense and provide a spark in
the batting order has been
working hard to readapt to his
old position.
Sophomore Rocky Szmydt
will also be counted on to be a
middle infield utility player
who can play shortstop or second base.
At second base, senior Taylor
Hall (.348 - 21 RBI) returns
for his third year as a starter.
Hall brings an outstanding
glove and a solid bat to the
lineup. He provides leadership
that can’t be measured.
Also at second base is junior
Bryce Alcorn. Alcorn will
probably see more time on the
mound than at second base,
but he is more than capable of
handling the role.
First base finds a bevy of
good players. Almost all the
first basemen also fill a major
role on the mound so this position will find its way to the
hot bat who isn’t pitching.
Senior T.J. Webb (.300 ) has
worked hard to improve in the
batters box. Sophomore Cade
Smith (.222 – 10 RBI) moves
from third base to first base.
Junior David Loftin and sophomore Dylan Sparks will also
get at bats this season. Sophomore James Strong brings a
left handed bat into the lineup
and has plenty of pop.
The outfield finds two players returning. Senior Stephen
Mills (.390 14 of 16 SB) is
firmly plated in left field. He
is a playmaker on offense and
a solid bat at the plate capable
of driving the ball.
In right field is senior Kade
Sullivan (.228), an all-district
pitcher. Sullivan follows a long
line of sure-gloved players with
strong arms to play that spot.
In centerfield is senior Kobe
Swallows. Used primarily as a
pinch runner and defensive replacement in 2015, Swallows
is ready to assume the starting
position. The fleet footed
Swallows is a plus defender.
Junior Cody Hutcherson
(.333), who emerged as a dangerous hitter at the end of the
2015 campaign and served as
the designated hitter, will hit
in the middle of the order and
see time in the outfield.
Junior Brian Robbins is a
new addition to the team after
moving from Florida. He has
plus speed and has shown the
potential to have a great glove.
Baseball, especially high
school baseball, comes down
to who is on the mound. The
Cavs feel good about their
deep pitching staff and its ability to throw strikes and change
speeds.
Senior right-hander T.J.
Webb, the District 6-AAA
Pitcher of the Year, will be the
bell cow again this year. Webb
was 7-2 with a 1.77 ERA last
year. His 64 strikeouts in 55.1
innings make him a force. He
threw a perfect game against
Warren County in 2015. Capable of making the ball do great
things, he will once again lead
from the bump.
Right-handed senior Sullivan
(5-0, 1 save, 1.25 ERA, 44 K
in 39.2 IP) will see action as a
starter and out of the bullpen.
Capable of recovering quick,
he thrives in both roles.
Sophomore Joshua South (60 0.60 ERA school record)
made a huge splash as a freshman and will be looked to
again to provide consistency
to the pitching staff. A righthander who throws plenty of
strikes, South is working on
adding new pitches to his arsenal.
Juniors Jacob Piggott, a RHP,
and RHP Kaleb Clayton are
two key elements to the staff.
They will be used out of the
bullpen and could find their
way into clutch situations.
Left-handers James Strong
and Stephen Mills (0.85 in 8.2
IP) will be called on to provide innings and get big outs.
Harris, a right-hander, will
see the mound for the first
time in his career. He has
pitched in the summer and is a
strike thrower. Hall had a win
and a save with a 0.00 ERA in
2015. He is a sidearmed
pitcher, who can get groundballs. Smith was 1-1 with a
1.50 ERA. He threw a one hitter against Oak Ridge as a
freshman. Also seeing the
mound will be Dylan Sparks,
Alcorn, Pugh, Brian Robbins,
Szmydt, and Hayslette.
“That is the million dollar
question,” Chaffin responded
to a question of how far he
thinks his team will go. “If we
can get timely hitting, two-out
rbi’s, move runners, and be
tough at the plate coupled with
pitching and defense we could
go deep into the season. It will
have to be a team effort all the
way around.”
The Cavs will get their season started off on Thursday as
they travel to GatlinburgPittman High School.

goals. The Spartans tied it back up (7-7) from King 20 seconds later. Unfortuat the 3:48 mark, but the Cavs were able nately, not even 20 seconds after King’s
to snag the lead right back with a goal goal, the Spartans once again tied it right
back up at the 3:10 mark.
Possessions went back and forth with
neither team seeming to have an advantage, but with 1:59 left in the game, the
Spartans scored the goal that decided the
contest.
Holland, King, and Varley all scored
two points for the Cavs, while Eberle led
the team in assists with three.
“At this time last year, we were winning these games,” Woods said. “(The
Cavs) fought hard, and so did Hendersonville. I’ve got to give them credit for
that. It’s just the little things, but what
we did see was a lot of improvement
from Wednesday, a lot of improvement
from Monday, and even a lot of improvement from last week. Now that we
have a week to prepare for Signal Mountain and rest up, I think these guys are
ready to go, and I think they’re seeing it
too. It’s tough, but sometimes when
you’re young you’ve got to learn the
hard way. We were in it. That’s what
matters, and we’re going to be in a lot
more.”
Next up, the Cavs will take on Signal
Mountain when they travel to
Cookeville on Thursday.
Seton Hall upsets
No. 3 Villanova
The Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — Isaiah Whitehead
scored 26 points, including the deciding threepoint play with 18 seconds left, and Seton Hall
won the Big East Tournament for the first time
in 23 years, beating No. 3 Villanova 69-67 on
Saturday at Madison Square Garden.
Whitehead drove on the right side, flipped the
ball in and was fouled. His free throw gave the
Pirates a 68-67 lead. Villanova had two more
chances sandwiched around
a free throw by Angel Delgado, but the Pirates held on
and beat the top-seeded deTop 25 fending champions.
It was Seton Hall’s third
Roundup tournament
title, the others
coming in 1991 and 1993.
The third-seeded Pirates (25-8) led for almost
the entire game, leading by 14 points in the first
half and 11 at halftime.
The Wildcats (30-4) finally started hitting
from 3-point range in the second half. They tied
the game four times before finally taking their
first lead since 3 minutes into the game when
Kris Jenkins’ 3-pointer gave them a 67-64 lead
with 50 seconds to play.
NO. 1 KANSAS 81,
NO. 9 WEST VIRGINIA 71
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Devonte Graham matched a career-high with 27 points,
Wayne Selden Jr. added 21 and Kansas overcame a remarkable performance by West Virginia’s Devin Williams for a victory over the
Mountaineers in the Big 12 Tournament title
game.
Perry Ellis added 17 points for the Jayhawks
(30-4), who almost certainly locked up the No.
1 overall seed for the NCAA Tournament by
winning their 10th Big 12 Tournament championship.
Kansas trailed the Mountaineers (26-8) at the
break before taking control behind Graham,
their sophomore guard. He hit five 3-pointers,
was 10 of 10 from the foul line and had a career-high four steals, effortlessly dealing with
West Virginia’s trademark pressure all night.
Williams finished with a career-best 31 points
and 10 rebounds, but the junior forward was
forced to carry the load by himself.
NO. 7 NORTH CAROLINA 61,
NO. 4 VIRGINIA 57
WASHINGTON (AP) — North Carolina held
Virginia without a field goal for more than 8
minutes in the second half, and Joel Berry II
scored 19 points, giving the Tar Heels a victory
for their first ACC Tournament title since 2008.
Since then, coach Roy Williams had led UNC
to four finals and lost each one.
Marcus Paige added 13 points for North Carolina (28-6), which won its 18th league championship.
Marcus Brogdon led Virginia (26-7) with 15
points, but the conference player of the year
was limited to 6 of 22 on field-goal attempts, 2
of 9 on 3s. In all, Carolina held the Cavs to 37
percent shooting.
Now comes the NCAA Tournament and an
all-but-certain No. 1 seeding.
NO. 2 MICHIGAN STATE 64,
NO. 18 MARYLAND 61
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Denzel Valentine
had 18 points, 10 assists and seven rebounds to
lead Michigan State past Maryland in the Big
Ten Tournament semifinal.
The league’s player of the year sealed it with
two free throws with 0.8 seconds to go, and
Melo Trimble’s desperation heave from 55 feet
away didn’t get past midcourt.
Michigan State (28-5) has won 12 of 13 and
will face No. 13 Purdue in Sunday’s title game.
Robert Carter Jr. had 18 points and eight rebounds to lead Maryland. Trimble finished
with 11 points.

Seton Hall’s Isaiah Whitehead (15) shoots over Villanova’s Kris Jenkins (2) during the second half during the Big East men’s tournament on Saturday in New
York. Seton Hall won 69-67.
Despite making only two baskets over the
final 10½ minutes, the Terrapins still could
have taken the lead after Valentine missed the
front end of a one-and-one.
Trimble drove in for a layup, but the shot appeared to be deflected and Valentine grabbed
the rebound and was immediately fouled.
NO. 13 PURDUE 76, MICHIGAN 59
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A.J. Hammons
had 27 points and 11 rebounds, and Purdue beat
Michigan to advance to the Big Ten Tournament championship.
Hammons made 11 of 17 shots, mostly from
inside. Vince Edwards added 13 points, and
Isaac Haas finished with 11.
Purdue (26-7) is seeking its first Big Ten
Tournament title since 2009.
Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman led Michigan with 15 points.
Eighth-seeded Michigan (22-12) was playing
its third game in three days.
NO. 17 TEXAS A&M 71, LSU 38
NASHVILLE (AP) — Tonny TrochaMorales scored 13 points and No. 17 Texas
A&M trounced LSU and freshman star Ben
Simmons to reach the Aggies’ first conference
tournament championship game since 1994.
The Aggies (26-7) will play for the Southeastern Conference Tournament title on Sunday
after sharing the regular-season crown with No.
16 Kentucky. They will face the Wildcats in the
title game.
Texas A&M hadn’t reached a conference
tourney championship since losing to Texas 22
years ago in the Southwest Conference. Now,
after its eighth straight victory, it is one win
away from adding its first tournament title
since 1987.
Simmons finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds for fourth-seeded LSU (19-14).
NO. 16 KENTUCKY 93, GEORGIA 80
NASHVILLE (AP) — Jamal Murray scored
26 points, Tyler Ulis added 25 and both keyed
a late 11-3 run that helped Kentucky put away
Georgia in a semifinal of the Southeastern Conference Tournament.
Isaiah Briscoe’s putback with 8:16 left put the
Wildcats up 68-67 and Murray followed with
two free throws. After Houston Kessler’s
jumper got Georgia within one, Ulis scored five
points while Murray made a layup during the
critical run that pushed second-seeded Kentucky ahead to stay and into Sunday’s championship.
Briscoe (12 points) was also important down
the stretch with a jumper and feed to Marcus
Lee for a dunk as Kentucky (25-8) had to work
hard to make its third straight SEC final.
