By TIM WHITMIRE ■ City condemns The Associated Press BEAUMONT, Texas — Hurricane Rita steamed toward refinery towns along the TexasLouisiana coast with 120 mph winds Friday, creating havoc even before it arrived: Levee breaks caused new flooding in New Orleans, and as many as 24 people were killed when a bus carrying nursing-home evacuees caught fire in a traffic jam. Rita weakened during the day into a Category 3 hurricane after raging as a Category 5, 175-mph monster earlier in the week. But it was still a highly dangerous storm. The hurricane was expected to come ashore early Saturday on a course that could spare Houston and Galveston but slam the oil refining towns of Beaumont and Port Arthur, Texas, and Lake Charles, La., with a 20-foot storm surge, Related towering stories, waves and up Pages to 25 inches of 2-A, 6-A rain. “That’s where people are going to die,” said Max Mayfield, director of the National Hurricane Center. “All these areas are just going to get absolutely clobbered by the storm surge.” Late Friday, southwestern Louisiana was soaked by driving rain and coastal flooding. 29 apartment complexes By DONNA HARRIS The Mississippi Press AP Firefighters work to cover the bodies of those who died early Friday morning when the bus they were traveling in caught fire in the northbound lanes of Interstate 45 south of Dallas. Dallas County sheriff’s investigators believe as many as 24 people were killed, but the Dallas County medical examiner’s office says that number could change. The bus was carrying nursing home residents from a Houston-area nursing home who were fleeing Hurricane Rita. Sugarcane fields, ranches and marshlands were already under water at dusk in coastal Cameron Parish. The sparsely populated region was almost completely evacuated, but authorities rushed to the aid of a man who had decided to ride out the storm in a house near the Gulf of Mexico after one of the man’s friends called for help. They were turned back by flooded roads. “He’s going to take the full brunt of this hurricane coming in,” sheriff’s Capt. James Hines said.

Hargrove said. The remains of other victims may surface as Rita passes by. Recovery crews will search the beach for other bodies, possibly starting on Saturday, Hargrove said. “Because of the high tides, the debris in the water will be moving around and it may release bodies,” he said. The body found early Thursday evening marked the first recovery of a Katrina victim’s remains in a week.

However, a notice of condemnation doesn’t mean the entire complex is unlivable, a city official said Friday. Pascagoula Building Official Steve Mitchell said his office has posted notices to condemn property at 29 apartment complexes in the city. He said about half of those can still house people in the upper floors, since only the bottom floors were damaged. The notices cite “health and safety reasons” and urge residents to find other locations to live. Shelter is still available through the American Red Cross and the Federal Emergency Management Agency at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, Gautier Civic Center and the Moss Point Riverfront Community Center, the three remaining open shelters. The notice instructs occupants to vacate condemned apartments before Tuesday, Sept. 27. While the notice encourages tenants to consult with their landlord or apartment manager to make arrangements for storage or removal of their belongings, it does not tell them to check with those same people to confirm that they really need to leave. That is what upset Johnny and Kim Beck of St. Martin, who are hurricane evacuees living in an apartment in Pascagoula.

LOUIS — Relief distribution centers closed Friday, some communities emptied out and still-struggling victims of Hurricane Katrina battened down what was left of their homes, more worried about wind blown debris than the rough surf Hurricane Rita was stirring up in the gulf. “Shrapnel. All this stuff is shrapnel,” said Mike Robertson, who was screwing plywood over the windows of a friend’s house within sight of the beach in Bay St. Louis. In this town and almost every other along the Mississippi coast lie mountains of debris — from the broken boards of homes to the ruined furniture that once filled them. In Bay St. Louis, they stand more than 15 feet high on some streets. “Nothing’s been picked up, and you don’t need very much wind to blow this stuff around,” said Robertson. “Yesterday, stuff was flying around at 30 mph.” He expected gusts late Friday and early today of as high as 60 mph, but he had no plans to leave despite a voluntary evacuation order for Hancock County. Rita was barreling toward the Texas and Louisiana coast with 135 mph winds at midday, with expected landfall early Saturday. If the outer bands make the winds too fierce in Bay St. Louis, Robertson and friends plan to seek shelter in a 50-year-old concrete block building. “Last week I lost three houses, two cars and a job,” said Robertson, who teaches management and entrepreneurship at Tulane University’s campus in Biloxi. “Just as I’m getting some sense of normalcy, now this. It’s absolutely ridiculous.” Authorities in neighboring Harrison County also recommended people voluntarily evacuate low-lying areas that typically flood during heavy thunderstorms.

Some roof repairs and other stormrepair work was suspended, but in many neighborhoods, people continued to nail down tarps and shovel out mud. Some neighborhoods, including east Biloxi, turned into veritable ghost towns. Denise Jenkins, 42, ducked under a blue tarp to avoid the occasional downpours. “If it gets more wet, I’ve got a house with friends I could go to,” she said. Victor Roby, 41, spent much of the day napping in a tent next door. He planned to stay put. “It ain’t gonna be that bad,” he said. By midafternoon, traffic on the usually congested U.S. 90 in Hancock County had all but vanished. Though the waterfront street that winds through Bay St. Louis into Waveland was passable Thursday, it quickly filled with water and debris Friday. The few tent and RV campsites that had been there 24 hours earlier were no longer visible, and by late in the day, National Guardsmen had cut off access to the beach. Work continued for a tugboat crew using a crane to remove steel from the channel below a demolished U.S. 90 bridge so barge traffic can get through. Felix Fu, with Brownsville, Texas-based ESCO Marine, was checking on two of his workers. He said both have experience on a shrimp boat and are accustomed to riding out rough whether.

Residents were worried that debris left behind from Hurricane Katrina would be stirred up by the winds of Hurricane Rita and cause further damage. If they get nervous, they can take the tugboat to Mobile. But Fu had no plans to issue that order. “Nah,” he said. “They’re OK.” In rural Pearlington, however, most people decided to leave.

Louisiana closes all oyster beds as a precaution BATON ROUGE, La. — All oyster beds that had remained open or were reopened after Hurricane Katrina were closed as a precaution Friday, as Hurricane Rita headed toward the Louisiana-Texas state line. The closure was effective at sunset Friday, state health secretary Fred Cerise and health officer Jimmy Guidry said. “These harvest areas will remain closed until we are confident that the waters are free of bacterial contamination that could affect the safety of eating raw oysters,” Cerise said. The Louisiana Oyster Task Force supported the move, chairman Mike Voisin said. All beds from the Mississippi state line through Terrebonne Parish had been closed because of Hurricane Katrina. Those in Terrebonne Parish were reopened a week ago, but those east of Terrebonne Parish had remained closed.

On Thursday, with 21 of her classmates from Baker High School in west Mobile, Dixon finally got her chance. Instead of driving southwest in her own used sedan, though, she rode a school bus. At the First Baptist Church in Pascagoula, Dixon and her classmates handed out toothbrushes, canned goods, bottled water and cleaning supplies to hundreds of cars driven by South Mississippi residents in need. Officials with the Southern Baptist Convention’s Disaster Team, which has been running the operation for three weeks, said they’ve helped more than 20,000 families by distributing tractortrailer truckloads of donated goods to area residents. “My feet hurt, but it’s been worth it,” Dixon said. “You can look at people’s faces and tell that they appreciate it.” Many of those people told the students so. “I’m so glad you’ve come here,” said one lady, driving a small car loaded with a man in the front seat and three children in the back. “Your car is packed,” said Dixon’s teacher, Jennifer Stevens, as she loaded bleach into the trunk. “Yes,” the lady said, “but my other car is flooded.” The Baker students on Thursday learned about more than how to help humanity. They received lessons about how a hurricane directly and indirectly affects the environment. Stevens, who teaches environmental science at the west Mobile school, organized the trip, and in her spare moments, she used it as a way to talk to students about all of the waste generated by hurricanes. On the hour-long bus ride over to Pascagoula, Stevens told her students that 20 states are in danger of running out of landfill space within the next decade. She mentioned Florida in particular, a state that had four major hurricanes last year that asked Alabama to take some of its trash. She talked about the piles of debris that many Gulf Coast residents put in their front yards. And she mentioned that even volunteer efforts, including the one in which they were participating, created waste: the bags and boxes used to ship and distribute items that people really need. Stevens encouraged her students, as they emptied the plastic bags, to tie them in knots so that they won’t one day go into a waterway to be ingested by animals mistaking them for jellyfish. And she emphasized the importance of recycling the cardboard. Over the past few weeks, the students have learned about global warming and how that may or may not be a factor in the active hurricane seasons of the past two years. They’ve talked about the beach erosion caused by hurricanes. Stevens’ students said it’s important to think about the environment in times like this. The students — who brought goods from their own homes to distribute — also emphasized that they were hap- py to be in Pascagoula helping people. The juniors and seniors on the trip missed their homecoming pep rally to volunteer Friday. “These people need help because they have nothing after the storm,” said Kimberly Hayes, 17, whose main duty on Friday was to distribute diapers. “I wanted to help the people,” added Christin Cohen, 17, as she handed a woman a bag full of personal hygiene supplies, “I think I’m part of a good cause.” Jim Wood of Millry in Washington County has been working at the Pascagoula site since it opened and said he plans to stay there until Wednesday when the distribution is scheduled to end. He said he appreciated the work of the Baker students Friday as well as that of a group of LeFlore High School students who came in from Mobile a few days earlier. Relief worker’s houseboat hits a snag in Moss Point By DONNA HARRIS The Mississippi Press MOSS POINT — Nearly a month after Hurricane Katrina blasted the Coast, a Florida man’s houseboat is weathering a different storm. Riley Burke, 48, of Gulf Breeze, steered a course for Moss Point a week ago on his 60-foot houseboat bulging with relief cargo from the United Way of Escambia County and Florida churches. The River Gypsy IV was loaded with pallets of MREs, clothes, toiletries and more than 700 tarps, all donated by United Way. Burke and ministers Don Kirby of Pelham, Ala., Ken Baker of Navarre, and Charlie Sellers of Fort Walton Beach, Fla., arrived Sept. 17 to help people in Moss Point whose lives had been ripped apart by the storm. Burke said he chose Moss Point because the Rev. Houston Cunningham, pastor at Green Pastures Christian Ministries, helped him overcome several addictions while he was at the Home of Grace in Vancleave years ago. “I just came over to be as many blessings as I could be for anyone,” he said. But Burke claims the city that welcomed him with open arms last week asked him to leave Thursday. However, Moss Point Mayor Xavier Bishop said that Burke can stay in Moss Point with his boat — if he moves it to another location. “I’m disappointed because I tried so hard to help so many people.” — Riley Burke Bishop said when Burke arrived last week unannounced, he allowed him to dock at Riverfront Park and had the boat connected to city services “with the intent of helping him reach out to the community.” It was to be a temporary arrangement, he said. Bishop said he has received “mixed messages” of Burke’s intentions. “We’ve re-evaluated our willingness to assist him and therefore did request that he dis- George adopts $14.6M 2006 budget By ROYCE ARMSTRONG The Mississippi Press LUCEDALE — The George County Board of Supervisors met at 8 a.m. Friday morning to conduct a public hearing and adopt the 2006 county budget. The $14,615,000 budget is an increase of $770,000 over last year. It will take an additional 1.02 mills or a total of $121.74 per $1,000 of assessed valuation in ad valorem taxes to pay the bills. “We cut everywhere we could cut,” said Kelly Wright, the president of the Board of Supervisors. “There were no increases in the department budgets. Some departmental budgets were cut. Others were kept the same as the previous year.” The nearly three quarters of a million dollar increase, Wright said, was due to inflationary changes in the costs of insurance, pension plans, fuel and materials and not due to additional spending. “I think a county ought to live on its new growth,” Wright said. “Last year we saw a slight increase in revenue and expenditures funded by new growth. This is a quadrennial year or a year in which property values are reassessed. We had very little new growth and that was offset by the state-mandated reduction in timberland assessment values. “The state’s downward valuation of timberlands ripped nearly three quarters of a million dollars out of our budget. Now, with the damage Hurricane Katrina has caused to the state’s forests and the col- lapse in timber prices because of the salvage wood moved into the market place, we could easily see another downward valuation of timberland for next year. That will put additional pressures on the county’s budget.” Homeowners will almost certainly see higher tax bills that will be due next January, according to Tax Assessor Wilburn Bolen. The tax equation is the assessed valuation of the property times the millage rate, he said. The new county budget increases both factors in this equation. Since this was a quadrennial year, nearly every parcel of improved real property received a higher valuation. That, combined with a higher millage rate will result in a higher tax bill. For many homeowners, he said, the tax bill may be 15 percent to 20 percent higher. The sheriff’s department is just one of the county’s departments feeling budget pressures. “I don’t ask for things that I do not need,” Sheriff Garry Welford told the supervisors during the public meeting. “I try as hard as anyone ever has to live within a budget. I just cannot do it with a budget that is the same as last year.” Welford told the supervisors that with the current budget he would be unable to fill an open deputy’s position, or that he would be forced to transfer a narcotics investigator into a patrol officer’s slot. “We all have a tough job,” said District 5 supervisor Henry Cochran. “I am not going to vote to increase taxes.” First Federal is operating at 100% capabilites at 4 convenient locations.

He said the city could not be directly associated with the organization, but would welcome his help for its citizens if he were docked in another location. “We’re not asking him to leave. We’re saying he can’t stay on the dock,” Bishop said. Burke tried to honor the mayor’s request Friday, but fell on deck and injured his back while doing so. He was taken to Singing River Hospital by ambulance and admitted for his injuries. Now the $160,000 houseboat he at one time planned to raffle and donate a portion of the funds to Moss Point is still docked near Say you saw it in THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS City Hall. The former Florida car dealer said he doesn’t know what he will do with the boat. “I’m disappointed because I tried so hard to help so many people,” he said. He also had two 18-wheelers of tarps en route to Moss Point, but diverted their delivery to Pascagoula and Ocean Springs instead, where volunteers at Church of the Rock and St. Paul United Methodist made quick use of them. He said he feels hindered in his attempts to help the city. “This is the time we should all come together,” he said. Bishop said Burke can keep the boat docked until Hurricane Rita ceases to be a danger to watercraft.

OSTLING AP Religion Writer An interfaith group released a new textbook Thursday aimed at teaching public high school students about the Bible while avoiding legal and religious disputes. The nonprofit Bible Literacy Project of Fairfax, Va., spent five years and $2 million developing “The Bible and Its Influence.” The textbook, introduced at a Washington news conference, won initial endorsements from experts in literature, religion and church-state law. American Jewish Congress attorney On the Net: Marc Stern, an Bible Literacy Project: adviser on the http://www.bibleliteraeffort, said despite cy.org concern over growing tensions among U.S. religious groups, “this book is proof that the despair is premature, that it is possible to acknowledge and respect deep religious differences and yet still find common ground.” Another adviser, evangelical literature scholar Leland Ryken of Wheaton College, called the textbook “a triumph of scholarship and a major publishing event.” The colorful $50 book and forthcoming teacher’s guide, covering both Old and New Testaments, are planned for semester-long or full-year courses starting next year. The editors are Cullen Schippe, a retired vice president at textbook publisher Macmillan/McGraw-Hill, and Chuck Stetson, a venture capitalist who chairs Bible Literacy. The 41 contributors include prominent evangelical, mainline Protestant, Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Jewish and secular experts. Religious lobbies and federal courts have long struggled over Bible course content. To avoid problems, Bible Literacy’s editors accommodated Jewish sensitivities about the New Testament, attributed reports about miracles to the source rather than simply calling them historical facts and generally downplayed scholarly theories — about authorship and dates, for example — that offend conservatives. Educators know biblical knowledge is valuable — 60 percent of allusions in one English Advanced Placement prep course came from the Bible — and that polls show teens don’t know much about Scripture. Yet few public schools offer such coursework, partly due to demands for other elective classes, partly over legal worries. The U.S. Supreme Court’s 1963 decision barring schoolroom Bible recitations said that “the Bible is worthy of study for its literary and historic qualities” if “presented objectively as part of a secular program of education.” The textbook follows detailed principles in a 1999 accord, “The Bible and Public Schools,” brokered by Bible Literacy and the First Amendment Center, a nonpartisan program of the Freedom Forum devoted to constitutional liberties. That accord is endorsed by seven major educational organizations and Christian, Jewish and Muslim groups. Stetson said “the important thing was not to compromise on peoples’ beliefs. They are what they are.” To Schippe, the key to effective education is respect for the biblical text, constitutional law, scholarship, various faith traditions and divergent interpretations. The new textbook was tested in two high schools. Bible Literacy will offer online teacher training through Concordia University in Portland, Ore. The First Amendment Center’s Charles Haynes told the news conference that public schools constantly ask him for advice on what Bible course material to use but he’s had nothing he could recommend — “nothing, that is, until now.” Haynes says the only previous textbook, decades old, was inadequate because it treated the Bible only as literature, slighting its religious significance. Another program, favored by evangelical groups and used in hundreds of schools, comes from the National Council on Bible Curriculum in Public Schools of Greensboro, N.C. It provides a teacher’s outline with the Bible itself as the textbook. Intelligent design debate takes center stage in Pennsylvania federal court By MARTHA RAFFAELE The Associated Press HARRISBURG, Pa. — The latest chapter in a long-running debate over teaching evolution in public schools is about to unfold in federal court. In a civil trial set to begin here Monday, the Dover Area School District will defend its policy requiring ninth-grade students to hear about “intelligent design” in a preamble to biology lessons on evolution. Intelligent design, a concept advanced over the past 15 years, holds that Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection causing gradual changes over time cannot fully explain the origin of life or the emergence of highly complex life forms. It implies that life on earth was the product of an unidentified intelligent force. Critics say intelligent design is merely creationism — a literal reading of the Bible’s story of creation — camouflaged in scientific language, and it does not belong in a science curriculum. Eight Dover families are suing the school district, alleging that the policy violates the constitutional separation of church and state. “Our objective is to demonstrate that the prior (legal) precedent, which forbids the teaching of creationism, applies here as well,” said Eric Rothschild, a Philadelphia attorney representing the families. The state American Civil Liberties Union and Americans United for Separation of Church and State are assisting the parents, including lead plaintiff Tammy Kitzmiller. “The school board has no business instructing children about religious matters,” Kitzmiller said at a December news conference on the lawsuit. The history of evolution litigation dates back to the famous 1925 Scopes Monkey Trial, in which Tennessee biology teacher John T. Scopes was fined $100 for violating a state law that forbade teaching evolution. The Tennessee Supreme Court reversed his conviction on the narrow ground that only a jury trial could impose a fine exceeding $50, and the law was repealed in 1967. In 1968, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned an Arkansas state law banning the teaching of evolution. And in 1987, it ruled that states may not require public schools to balance evolution lessons by teaching creationism. The issue has become a priority for many religious groups, which accuse scientists of stepping outside their field into the realm of theology with some of their pronouncements. Dover is believed to have been the first school system in the nation to require students to hear about the concept under the policy adopted in October 2004. But the clash over intelligent-design is evident far File Photo/AP Witold J. Walczak, legal director for the state Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, addresses a news conference at the Capitol in Harrisburg, Pa., in this Dec. 14, 2004 photo. The ACLU and Americans United for Separation of Church and State have filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of 11 parents in a long-running legal debate over the teaching of evolution in public schools. In the civil trial set to begin Monday, the Dover Area School District will defend its policy requiring ninth-grade students to hear about ‘intelligent design’ in a preamble to biology lessons on evolution. beyond this rural district of about 3,500 students 20 miles south of Harrisburg. In August, the Kansas Board of Education gave preliminary approval to science standards that allow intelligent design-style alternatives to be discussed alongside evolution. President Bush has also weighed in, saying schools should present both concepts. Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center, which is defending the school district, says Dover’s policy takes a modest approach. It requires teachers to read a statement that says intelligent design differs from Darwin’s view and refers students to an intelligent-design textbook, “Of Pandas and People,” for more information. “All the Dover school board did was allow students to get a glimpse of a controversy that is really boiling over in the scientific community,” Thompson said. The Discovery Institute, a Seattle-based think tank that represents scholars who support intelligent design, opposes mandating it in public schools. Nevertheless, it considers the Dover lawsuit an attempt to squelch voluntary debates over evolution. “It’s Scopes in reverse. They’re going to get a gag order to be placed on teachers across the country,” said institute senior fellow John West. To build their cases, each side is enlisting a battery of academic experts. Witnesses for the defense include biochemist Michael Behe of Lehigh University, who defended intelligent design in his 1996 book, “Darwin’s Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution.” Eugenie Scott, executive director of the National Center for Science Education, which supports teaching evolution in public schools, said the controversy has little to do with science because mainstream scientists have rejected intelligent-design theory. Intelligent design supporters “seem to have shifted virtually entirely to political and rhetorical efforts to sway the general public,” Scott said. “The bitter truth is that there is no argument going on in the scientific community about whether evolution took place.” CHURCH EVENTS From Staff Reports Moss Point New Faith Missionary Baptist Church The Rev.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2005 5-A THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS Contact: Lance Davis, News Editor, (866) 843-9020 E-mail address: news@mspressonline.com LOCAL/STATE Session to debate land-based casinos ■ American Family Association joins the opposition By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS The Associated Press Bill Starling/Mobile Register Above, Deborah Wells and her husband, Keith, pause Wednesday in the living room of what was their home on Illing Court in Biloxi. A neighborhood’s lost and found By RENA HAVNER Mobile Register BILOXI — Among the rubble that just weeks ago made up the homes along Illing Court, Keith Wells has searched and searched for his lost belongings. He’s found some things, mostly “weird stuff,” he said: his family’s Christmas china, amazingly intact, about one shoe from every pair he owns, and even the wallet full of cash that he accidentally left behind when he evacuated for Hurricane Katrina almost four weeks ago. Wells also uncovered some items that don’t belong to him, including a black-and-white photograph of a brunette woman that he has hung up to dry and hopes to return to someone. With miles and miles of chaos and damaged homes on the Mississippi Coast, officials have not established any formal lost-andfound sites. So Wells searches for his past in the same manner as many others: In the evenings, just before sunset, he walks around his neighborhood on Biloxi’s Back Bay, looking in yards for things that people have collected that might possibly be his. In one of his walks, Wells said, he discovered the sail from his sailboat after neighbors had set it out in plain view in their yard. At the same time, though, he has resisted picking up cookware that resembles his own but may not be, he said. “Sometimes, you say, ‘That looks like my Revere Ware.’ Then you realize that everyone else in the neighborhood had the same pots and pans,” Wells said, “I’d hate to take something that’s somebody else’s. It’s just a soup pot.” Wells has posted an announcement online in hopes of finding something that was special to his 12-year-old twins: Their orange, two-rider, sit-ontop kayak that was chained up in the garage before the hurricane. “We’ve lost everything else, but that thing is unsinkable, so I figured someone will find it somewhere,” Wells said, although he added that for all he knows, the kayak “could be in South America by now.” Wells expects that the chain is still attached to the front of the kayak, giving him a way to identify it. Wells said his twins, Jacob and Hannah, turn 13 next week, and the kayak would make an excellent present. A survey of emergency opera´ tions centers, sheriff ’s offices and police departments along Mississippi’s coastline revealed that no large-scale Some Web sites are allowing posters to list lost-and-found items, including the site operated by a Biloxi newspaper. Also, a number of groups are helping people reunite with children or loved ones, or track down dogs and cats that they left behind when they evacuated. In interviews, law enforcement officials said they would accept found items of value and attempt to locate the owners. But with entire homes demolished, and belongings scattered everywhere, people have not been bringing in much. The Biloxi Police Department, for example, has received several guns, but nothing out of the ordinary, according to Patrolman 1st Class Frank McKeny. A police officer in Bay St. Louis echoed the same, adding that the agency is gladly accepting found firearms to make sure that they don’t fall into the wrong hands. McKeny said he expects people to start dropping off items after they’ve created some order in their lives. “I think people right now are finding it and holding on to it to see if it belongs to somebody in the neighborhood,” he said. “Right now, if you walked into the door with a dollar bill, we’re going to process it like a normal found item,” McKeny said. “We’ll advertise that we found it and try to find the owner.” He said that police officers would never suggest a “finderskeepers” policy for the public. He said that “common courtesy and humanity” ought to prevail. “Some people, for example, when they find a lost dog, they advertise in 12 papers in three states to find the owner.” Darlene Waits of Pass Christian is hoping that someone will recover the red and white castiron bathtub that she refurbished herself. The day after Katrina made landfall, Waits, who had evacuaed upstate, returned to her Lacbleu Avenue home about a block from the water to discover that two other houses had crashed on top of her own. Waits said she searched with little luck for anything she could find, including the tub, which she had bought through a newspaper ad from a farmer in McHenry, Miss., who had been using it as a trough to feed his horses. Waits said that she had cleaned mud and grass off the tub, removed a few spiders and hauled it from the farm to her own home. She added claw feet made of brass. All total, Waits said she spent about $500 on the tub. JACKSON — Gov. Haley Barbour’s draft agenda for next week’s special legislative session includes a proposal to let casinos “operate in structures other than barges,” according to a document obtained by The Associated Press. The draft also proposes letting casinos operate temporarily, but it doesn’t specify where that could happen. The 23-point draft includes a wide variety of proposals to help the state recover from Hurricane Katrina, from allowing state agencies more flexibility in handling budgets to creating a loan program for small businesses. Katrina ravaged the coastal counties on Aug. 29, leaving widespread damage to homes and businesses more than 100 miles inland. Casinos and other industries on the coast sustained extensive damage. Barbour is calling lawmakers to the Capitol starting sometime Tuesday to begin addressing some of the problems. The governor sets the agenda in any special session, and Barbour has not yet released a final list of issues he’ll let lawmakers consider. The document obtained by AP is a draft the governor’s office gave to legislative leaders. Mississippi legalized casinos in 1990 but limited them to the waters of the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico. Katrina’s powerful winds and storm ripped holes in most of the 13 coast casinos and shoved some of them ashore. Some casino companies say they want to build on land; others say they’ll rebuild over water. Barbour said this week that he will let lawmakers debate whether to let casinos build on land. But he has not yet issued a formal agenda, leaving open the possibility that he could back away from the politically File Photo/William Colgin/The Mississippi Press The Palace Casino lays in ruins along the bay in Biloxi Aug. 30 after Hurricane Katrina made her way along the Gulf Coast. Gov. Haley Barbour’s draft agenda for next week’s special legislative session includes a proposal to let casinos “operate in sturctures other than barges.” volatile casino issue. The governor said he will release a detailed casino proposal after he receives a recommendation from the three-member state Gaming Commission. Commission chairman Jerry St. Pé will speak to Barbour sometime this weekend, the commission’s executive director, Larry Gregory, said Friday. “We’ll be giving him counsel and advice of all of the information we have, to make good sound judgments,” Gregory said. “As far as giving an exact location (of where casinos could locate), we’re not going to be doing that. The Legislature will be addressing those issues.” In Harrison County, the Coast’s largest casino market, supervisors have passed a resolution asking lawmakers to let gambling houses go 1,500 feet inland from their current locations. Barbour’s draft agenda for the special session says the rationale for letting casinos operate temporarily and operate in structures other than barges is: “To restore the operations of a major South Mississippi employer as soon as possible and to give confidence for future investments.” A state law passed earlier this year allows casinos to build on pilings over water. It’s unclear whether Barbour’s draft proposal would give the casinos any more leeway than they already have under the pilings law. On Friday, the chairman of the Tupelo-based American Family Association said he opposes allowing casinos on land. The Rev. Donald Wildmon said this might be a good time to have a statewide vote on gambling. That raises the possibility of outlawing an industry that employs thousands of people and pumps millions of dollars into Mississippi’s economy. “Perhaps, this is a political debate regarding gambling in Mississippi which has been needed for years,” Wildmon said in a news release. “Up to this point, we have not had that debate.” The AFA statement came a day after the state’s largest religious group — the Mississippi Baptist Convention — said hurricane damage shouldn’t be used as a reason to expand the gambling industry. Lt. Gov. Amy Tuck says she’s waiting to see the session agenda before she comments on the casino issue. Speaker Billy McCoy said he’s relying on the House Gaming Committee chairman — Rep. Bobby Moak, D-Bogue Chitto — to stake out a position. McCoy, who spent several days traveling through hurricane-ravaged parts of south Mississippi, said: “In my travels around, gaming is not what the citizens are talking to me about.” He said people are more concerned about the immediate needs of dealing with insurance companies and rebuilding their own homes. Elvis’ former home to be added to register NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — There are no jungle rooms at 1034 Audubon Drive, no gold records and no pink Cadillacs. But this modest ranch-style house in the Audubon Park Subdivision of southeast Memphis shares a history with Graceland, the famous whitecolumned mansion more than 10 miles away. The house Elvis Presley purchased at age 21, a home that his fame quickly outgrew, has been nominated to the National Register of Historic Places. The State Review Board approved the nomination Tuesday and now it moves on — just as Graceland did in 1991 — for approval at the national level. Judith Johnson, an architecture historian in Memphis, helped the private owners put the house up for nomination. No stranger to Elvis history, Johnson was involved in protecting from demolition a Memphis public housing unit, Lauderdale Courts, where Elvis spent his teenage years.

BREED The Associated Press ROXIE — Thomas Moore stopped at the gas station just outside of town for a country sausage and egg sandwich. He got much more than he’d bargained for. Moore was back in the southern Mississippi timberlands of his youth to make a documentary about the 1964 kidnapping, torture and slaying of his brother and another black man, crimes for which no one was ever tried. Idling in the store that blistering July day, Moore lamented to a local about the fact that one of the prime suspects had died, and the listener asked which one. “James Ford Seale,” Moore replied. The newspapers had said so. Seale’s own son had confirmed it years ago. The man looked at Moore in surprise. “He ain’t dead,” he said. “I’ll show you where he lives.” Moore and filmmaker David Ridgen drove a short distance to a spacious brick house with an immaculate lawn studded with pines and birdhouses. There, lounging beneath a covered picnic area, was an old man with white, thinning hair and spectacles. “James Ford Seale!” Moore shouted from the road. “Why don’t you come out and talk to me? Don’t be a coward like you were 41 years ago.” The white man grabbed his cane, scurried to a motor home parked beside the swimming pool and shut the door behind him — but not before Ridgen could zoom in on him with his camera. This was no ghost of Mississippi. James Ford Seale was very much alive. ——— Searchers were combing the woods and swamps of Mississippi for three civil rights workers who went missing in June of 1964. James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner were helping register blacks to vote in Neshoba County, and the Ku Klux Klan had targeted them for elimination. On July 12, a fisherman found the lower part of a black man’s body in the Mississippi River near Tallulah, La. Federal officials converged on the area, and the partial remains of a second man were found the following day. The bodies were identified as those of Charles Eddie Moore, who was home from Alcorn A&M after being suspended for taking part in a protest over cafeteria food, and Henry Hezekiah Dee, who worked at a local lumberyard. According to federal reports, the two 19-yearolds were hitchhiking May 2 on U.S. 84 outside nearby Meadville when a Klansman in a Volkswagen picked them up. Two men were arrested in the case — paper mill worker Charles Marcus Edwards, 31, and his cousin, a 29-year-old truck driver named James Ford Seale. FBI documents say Edwards admitted that he and Seale picked up the two men, took them to “an undisclosed wooded area where they were ’whipped”’ — allegedly with bean poles. But Edwards told investigators the two were alive when he left them. An informant, however, told the FBI that the Klansmen took the unconscious blacks to the river, lashed their bodies to a Jeep engine block and dumped them, still breathing, into the muddy water. In early August, the bodies of Chaney, Goodman and Schwerner were discovered in an earthen dam. Consumed by that case, the FBI turned over Edwards’ statement and other files to local authorities. A justice of the peace promptly dismissed all charges without even presenting the case to a grand jury. It seemed the case would end there. ——— In 2000, the Clarion-Ledger of Jackson uncovered documents indicating that the killings — or at least the beatings — might have occurred in the Homochitto National Forest. Claiming jurisdiction, the Justice Department reopened the case. It wasn’t long after that when James Ford Seale “died” the first time. The Los Angeles Times published a story in June 2002 on the reopened case. The newspaper said Seale had passed away the previous year. AP Water flows out of the breach in the levee in the Industrial Canal into the lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans Friday. The neighborhood had just been pumped dry from flood waters of Hurricane Katrina when tides from Hurricane Rita caused the temporary repairs to fail. AP Mac Littleton, left, and Elmo Hickingbottom post a sign Aug. 27 on Main Street in Meadville in memory of the 1964 murders of Henry H. Dee and Charles E. Moore. In 2003, the Clarion-Ledger — known for its dogged pursuit of graying segregationists — ran a series on unsolved civil rights-era cases. An item on the Dee-Moore case included comments Seale had made “before his death.” But Seale wasn’t finished dying just yet. It wasn’t until the recent manslaughter conviction of 80-year-old Edgar Ray Killen in the Neshoba County killings that things began heating up. Killen was sentenced in June to 60 years in prison. Moore and Ridgen visited Philadelphia, Miss., in the aftermath of the case to commune with people there and to issue a call for justice in other unresolved cases of the era. The following month, officials announced a local-state-federal partnership to advance the Dee-Moore case. When he announced the joint task force in July, U.S. Attorney Dunn Lampton wasn’t sure Seale was alive. He conceded that pretending someone is dead “may not be a bad strategy,” but he added: “That’s not going to work.” ——— If you’re trying to disappear, Roxie is about as good as place as any to do it. The railroad pulled up its tracks about 15 years ago, and Georgia-Pacific shuttered its lumber mill a few years later. A tiny bank branch and a diner anchor a strip of bombed-out looking buildings on West Street, Roxie’s main drag. People around Franklin County have no great desire to talk about Seale. One local official acknowledged seeing Seale at area churches, but didn’t want to be quoted as debunking his untimely demise. The property where Moore found Seale is on Route 33 just outside Roxie. On a recent scorching Mississippi day, a visitor knocks at the front and back doors of the brick home. An elderly man in a light checked shirt emerges from the RV parked beside the swimming pool. “She’s not home,” he shouts in a friendly voice. But when the visitor identifies himself as a reporter, the man’s red-blotched face turns sour. He confirms that he is James Ford Seale. But the man who once challenged authorities to “have at me” is not in a talking mood. “You see that driveway?” he snarls, pointing. “Git on up it!” Moore never got to talk to Seale, but he left him a message. On a garden stake on the road outside Seale’s home, he posted a sign: “Charles Moore and Henry Dee, rest in peace and justice.” 16,000 Sq. Ft.

BREED The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS — Hurricane Rita’s wind-driven storm surge topped one of New Orleans’ battered levees and poked holes in another Friday, sending water gushing into alreadydevastated neighborhoods just days after they had been pumped dry. An initial surge of water cascaded over a patched levee protecting the impoverished Ninth Ward, flooding the abandoned neighborhood with at least 6 feet of water. “Our worst fears came true,” said Maj. Barry Guidry, a National Guardsman on duty at the broken levee. Leaks beneath another levee that was repaired with rock and gravel after Hurricane Katrina flooded homes with at least a half-foot of water. Meanwhile, wind-whipped waves pushed water from Lake Pontchartrain over a seawall and rain runoff with no outlet pooled in city streets. Evacuees from the miserystricken city learned of the new flooding with despair. “It’s like looking at a murder,” Quentrell Jefferson of the Ninth Ward said as he watched the news at a church in Lafayette, 125 miles west of New Orleans. “The first time is bad. After that, you numb up.” The flooding came as Rita began lashing the Gulf Coast with rain and wind, and up to 500,000 people in southwestern Louisiana headed north. Some who fought hours of gridlock to get out of Texas were frustrated to find they had to keep going to stay out of the storm, which was expected to make landfall early Saturday. Lake Charles, not far from Rita’s predicted path along the Texas-Louisiana line, was a virtual ghost town, as were the coastal parishes. Before nightfall, squalls were flattening sugar cane fields and knocking over trees near New Iberia, about 110 miles west of New Orleans. There were fears the storm would stall after coming ashore, dumping as much as 25 inches of rain over the next several days. In New Orleans, water poured through gaps in the Industrial Canal levee, which engineers had tried to repair after Katrina’s floodwaters left 80 percent of the city under water. The rushing water covered piles of rubble and mud-caked cars in the Ninth Ward, rising swiftly to the top of first-floor windows. It spilled east into St. Bernard Parish, where ducks swam down Judge Perez Drive. The storm surge was both stronger and earlier than expected, apparently coming through waterways southeast of the city, said Col. Richard Wagenaar, the Army Corps of Engineers’ district chief in New Orleans. Water poured over piles of gravel and sandbags in the damaged Industrial Canal levee despite efforts to build it up. “We believed the 8-foot elevation was sufficient” to protect the Ninth Ward, Wagenaar said. Farther north, water 6 to 8 inches deep was streaming into homes south of Lake Pontchartrain, spouting from beneath two gravel-and-rock patches on the London Avenue Canal levee. Corps engineers said they expected the leaks. “It’s a rock levee,” said Richard Pinner, who is supervising the levee’s repair for the corps. Officials with the corps said other levees around the city appeared secure. The problems would set back repairs at least three weeks, Wagenaar said, but June is still the target for getting the levees back to pre-Katrina strength. In New Orleans, forecasters said the hurricane could bring 4 to 8 inches of rain, enough to put the patched levees at more risk. An added fear was that another strong storm surge would push water through the walls in other places. Still, the city may have escaped worse damage because it was not in the direct path of Hurricane Rita, said Tim Destri of the National Weather Service in Slidell. “It’s a combination of winddriven water and tides,” he said. “It’s not the sudden storm surge of the hurricane.” WE’VE MOVED!!

Too many pens: We filled shoe boxes and sent these to the nearest school. Everyone knows a teacher, so some boxes were directed their way. Lots of By Heloise cute thank-you notes from the schoolchildren told us our leftovers were used and really appreciated. Just think of all the kids across the U.S.A. who forget to pack a pen or pencil in their backpacks.

This makes it much easier to find and read when needed. — Rubi from Michigan Carol, how right you are! Lots of items cluttering a desk would be good for schoolchildren — scrap paper, greeting cards, notepads. Call first to be sure these “gifts” are needed and welcomed. — Heloise Thought for the bereaved Dear Heloise: After a death in the family, sending thank-you notes can be a tremendously time-consuming task, especially if one has to look up each and every address for the people who brought food, sent flowers, etc. For those who take food to the bereaved family, a return-address label taped to the container would be very helpful. For floral tributes, a request could be made to the florist when the order is placed to include the sender’s address on the card that is attached to the arrangement. — Gary in Texas Fast Facts Dear Heloise: I find cheap paper plates can be very useful: Write P.O.

College Football: Arizona State at Oregon State 364328 Cell phone abusers ignore partners, hurt relationships Dear Abby: I saw something today that broke my heart. A woman who appeared to be in her late 30s was sitting in a restaurant with a woman who looked to be in her mid70s. It may have been her mother. The entire time I was in the restaurant — about an hour — I saw not one sign of verbal or visual contact between them. The reason? The younger woman was on a hands-free cell phone, talking office talk from the moment their orders were placed. The older woman sat eating her meal, clearly with little interest and no animation. When they Dear were finished eat- Abby ing, the younger one paid the server, and then gestured “let’s leave” by pointing toward the exit. She got up quickly, motioning for her mother to hurry. I found the episode upsetting, and I hope she reads this: Life is so short. Take your mom to lunch whenever you can, but talk with her, laugh with her, connect with her. Show her the respect and kindness she’s due. Your cell phone will be around long after your mother is gone, and there will be no memories to bring you comfort. — Always made time for Mom in Baltimore Dear Always: I wish that what you saw was an isolated incident, but it isn’t. For years, I have seen what appears to be an entire generation of people behaving similarly. My husband and I were having dinner in a restaurant recently. At the next table were a young woman (late 20s, early 30s) having dinner with a gentleman who appeared to be her grandfather. During the meal, he did not utter a word. She did all the talking — loudly — into her cell phone, making one business call after another. As he paid the bill and they left the restaurant, the woman was still on the phone. She didn’t even thank him for the dinner. A few months before that, we were in another restaurant. A table away was a very attrac- tive couple who were seated across from each other in romantic candlelight. They spent their entire meal deeply involved in earnest conversation on their cell phones. But not a word was said to each other. Is this the “new” intimacy? It seems that fewer and fewer people are connecting with the people they are with. And this includes parents who are out with little children. How sad. Dear Abby: Please settle an argument between my husband and me. We were recently vacationing at a hotel resort with our young daughters. In the pool with our children one afternoon was a father and his two young daughters, both under the age of 10. After about 30 minutes the father left the pool and went back into the hotel, leaving his daughters playing alone in the water. I stayed in the pool with my children for another half- hour before telling them it was time to go back to our room. There was no lifeguard on duty; signs had been posted everywhere that said children under the age of 16 needed to be supervised at all times. Worried about the girls’ safety, I told them they needed to get out and get an adult to watch them if they wanted to swim some more. (The alternative was going to the front desk and reporting it.) Back in our room, my husband informed me that I was being intrusive by saying anything at all. He said that if the father thought they were safe, I shouldn’t have interfered in his parenting decision. Abby, I would have felt horrible if something happened to the children. Was I being intrusive, or did I do the right thing? — Caring Mom, Green Bay, Wis. Dear Caring Mom: Unless both of the little girls were knowledgeable enough about water safety to understand exactly what to do in case of an emergency, they should not have been left in the pool without adult supervision. You did the right thing. The father was guilty of child endangerment. Write www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069. Sister neglecting ailing father Dear Annie: My husband, children and I are caring for my widowed father, who is in the late stages of dementia. I consider it a privilege and a responsibility to care for him at home, and am happy to do so for as long as I am able. I attend support groups, and my family and friends ensure that I “escape” from time to time. The difficulty is with my sister and her three children, who live many states away, and who use their distance, their busy lives and their dysfunction as reasons to ignore Dad. Because phone calls are difficult for him, I have asked Sis several times to send a letter, postcard or e-mail with her picture attached, but she won’t. Dad lives to go to the mailbox. Getting a personal letter makes his day, and he happily reads it over and over. Reading also is good stimulation for his brain. Please don’t suggest I “create” letters and pretend they are from her. I also will not give my sister care packages of stamps and pre-addressed envelopes to make it easier. I am a full-time caregiver and have enough on my plate. My parents helped all their grandchildren with college tuition and bailed my sister out financially many times with no repayment of her debt (that’s a whole other story). They created a small but comfortable estate which all of us will inherit. I want to tell my sister how her neglect is affecting my feelings toward her, but friends say I’d be wasting my time. I sadly foresee cutting off contact with my only sibling due to this issue, and because frankly, the only time I hear from her anymore is when she needs financial assistance. Any ideas? — Frustrated West Coaster Dear Frustrated: You cannot make your sister a better daughter or a more considerate sibling. She is who she is. If it will make you Annie’s feel better Mailbox to air your feelings, we suggest an e-mail or letter saying only how much it saddens you that Sis does not maintain closer contact with her ailing father, and you hope she will not have regrets later. Don’t become angry or accusatory, and don’t expect too much. You are not responsible for your sister’s attitude, nor can you fix it. Sometimes you simply have to accept what is. Dear Annie: There is a growing trend in the church my husband and I attend. In the past year, three young couples were married in the church. All of them are friends of my children and quite close to me. Either the parents or the couples found it sufficient to put an open invitation to their ceremony in the church bulletin. One even requested donations be made to help support their honeymoon. I realize people have to cut corners, but this struck me as so impersonal that I declined to go. My daughter will be getting married soon, and we will be going to the extra expense of mailing wedding invitations to assure the guests that each one is truly wanted. Am I outdated at the ripe old age of 40? — Miffed in Michigan Dear Miffed: Hardly. These “invitations” are the equivalent of newspaper announcements. They let you know a wedding is taking place, but you are under no obligation to respond or send a gift. Some bridal couples mistakenly believe such an invitation lets more people “share their joy.” In reality, it puts close friends on the same level as strangers, which can be both insulting and hurtful. Dear Annie: This is for “Rocky,” who joked that the reason Adam lived a long time was because he didn’t have a mother-in-law. I’d like to point out that Methuselah lived to be 969 — that’s 39 more years than Adam — and he did have a mother-in-law. — A Happy Mother-In-Law Dear Happy: Let’s hear it for the other side! Thanks.

Now, we are asking to share your stories with your community by sending them to The Mississippi Press. stormstories@mspressonline.com or mail them to: THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS P.O. Box 849, Pascagoula, MS 39564 10-A THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2005 Renters From Page 1-A their home in St. Martin. Johnny Beck said Oak Villa, located a mile north of U.S. 90, received minor damage to one of the five buildings in the complex. “We did not get flooded, no structural damage. We have fewer problems than what people got to their homes,” he said. The notice posted Wednesday alarmed the 24 families who called Oak Villa home long before the storm, he said. “They can’t do that. It’s against the law. They’re evicting people illegally. We’re not going anywhere,” he said. Beck is concerned that the notice instructs tenants to vacate to a shelter while Hurricane Rita is approaching the Louisiana coast. “If you read it and believe it, we’re supposed to go move into a tent with a hurricane coming,” he said. Mitchell said in Beck’s case, city workers placed a notice on the manager’s door of the complex. Beck contacted his office about it Thursday. “He was told if he didn’t have any damage, he didn’t have anything to worry about,” Mitchell said. He said inspectors have gone throughout the city placing notices on apartment buildings that appeared to have either major structural damage or had flooded units. “They went around and hit every complex, and the ones that we saw visible damage, those are the ones we posted,” he said. FOR HELP If you manage or own an apartment building in Pascagoula that has been condemned by the city, call (228) 938-6620 and arrange for a reassessment of the property. Apartment managers or owners of the condemned rental properties should contact Mitchell’s office at (228) 938-6620 and arrange for a more thorough inspection of the units. Mitchell’s office will allow livable apartments to be used, he said. He is also not making Tuesday a firm date, he said. “If we can make them reasonably safe, we’re not going to kick them out,” he said. “If they can be lived in safely then by all means, that’s what we’re letting them do. My heart won’t let me put them out on the street.” Mitchell said about half of the condemned apartment buildings sustained damage to only the lower units. The upstairs units can still be inhabited. Tenants in the condemned units have the option of moving into the three remaining shelters in Jackson County. “If we had not had a place to put these people we would not have condemned these buildings,” he said.

Hargrove said the condition of the woman’s body indicated she had died around the time of the Aug. 29 storm. He declined to specify her race or approximate age, pending efforts to match the remains with fingerprint, dental and medical records of people who have been reported missing. The team of more than 100 mortuary specialists that is helping identify the remains at a makeshift center in Harrison County suspended operations Friday due to strong winds and rainstorms generated by Rita, Hargrove said. Local and state authorities said they couldn’t provide even a rough estimate of the total number of people that have been reported missing since the storm. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, which is trying to develop a missing-persons clearinghouse, asked that people who filed reports and have since located individuals call to COUNTING THE DEAD Hurricane Katrina death tolls reported by state and local officials as of Friday: ALABAMA: 2 FLORIDA: 14 GEORGIA: 2 LOUISIANA: 841 MISSISSIPPI: 220 TOTAL: 1,079 take names off the list. At least 1,070 people were killed by Katrina in five states. Mississippi has the secondhighest death toll after Louisiana, where at least 832 people died. Of the 220 killed in Mississippi, 165 were in the six southernmost Mississippi counties — Hancock, Harrison, Jackson, Pearl River, Stone, and George — for which Hargrove is keeping records. He said nearly all drowned. Hargrove said 92 of the bodies recovered in the six counties have been identified and 85 have been returned to their families. Christy Pritchett/The Mississippi Press Choppy waters surround the demolished Beach Park pier in Pascagoula, and Signal International oil rigs in Bayou Casotte appear ghostly in a downpour from feeder bands associated with Hurricane Rita. The storm brushed past the Mississippi Gulf Coast Friday afternoon, churning toward the Louisiana-Texas border. Death From Page 1-A huddled under an overhang outside the locked downtown civic center in Lake Charles. “There’s probably going to be 4 feet of water where they are now,” Hines said. “So they need to get out of there.” Empty coastal highways and small towns were blasted with wind-swept rain. A metal hurricane evacuation route sign along one road wagged violently in the wind, and clumps of cattle huddled in fields. Steve Rinard, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Lake Charles, said he could not keep count of the tornado warnings across southern Louisiana. “They were just popping up like firecrackers,” he said. Mike Hargrave, 42, was ordered to evacuate from his home in Sulphur, just west of Lake Charles. He arrived late Thursday at a church shelter in Lafayette, 80 miles east, carrying only a bag of clothes. “The police told me we will escort you out or you will be going to jail,” he said. Rita threatened dozens of shuttered refineries and chemical plants along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast that represent a quarter of the nation’s oil refining capacity. Environmentalists warned of the risk of a toxic spill, and business analysts said Rita could cause already-high gasoline prices to rise to as much as $4 a gallon. In the storm’s cross-hairs were the marshy towns along the Louisiana line: Port Arthur, a city of about 58,000 where the main industries include oil, shrimping and crawfishing; and Beaumont, a port city of about 114,000 that was the birthplace of the modern oil industry. It was in Beaumont that the Spindletop well erupted in a 100-foot gusher in 1901 and gave rise to such giants as Gulf, Humble and Texaco. Kandy Huffman had no way to leave, and she pushed her broken-down car down the street to her home with plans to ride out the storm in an otherwise-deserted Port Arthur, where the streetlights were turned off and stores were boarded up. “This isn’t my first rodeo. All you can do is pray for best,” she said as a driving rain started to fall. “We’re surrounded by the people we love. Even if we have to all cuddle up, we know where everybody is.” In New Orleans, which had just drained nearly all the putrid floodwaters from Katrina, Rita’s wind and rain sent water gushing through a patched levee along the Industrial Canal and into the already-devastated Lower Ninth Ward and parts of neighboring St. Bernard Parish. The water rose to waist level. About the same time, water streamed through another levee along the patched London Avenue Canal, swamping homes in the Gentilly neighborhood with 6 to 8 inches of water. “Our worst fears came true,” said Maj. Barry Guidry, a National Guardsman on duty at the broken levee in the Ninth Ward. Refugees from the misery-stricken neighborhood learned of the crisis with despair. “It’s like looking at a murder,” Quentrell Jefferson said as he watched the news at a church in Lafayette, 125 miles west of New Orleans. “The first time is bad. After that, you numb up.” President Bush, mindful of criticism the federal government was slow to respond to Katrina, had planned to visit his home state to review the Rita response but canceled at the last minute to avoid slowing down the preparations. He planned to watch over the storm from the U.S. Northern Command in Colorado Springs. At least 2.8 million people fled a 500mile stretch of the Louisiana-Texas coastline in a seemingly all-at-once evacuation that caused monumental traffic jams in which hundreds of cars broke down or ran out of gas. By midday Friday, the bumper-tobumper traffic had cleared from the outskirts of Houston toward Austin and Dallas. In a traffic jam on Interstate 45 near Wilmer, southeast of Dallas, a bus caught fire, killing as many as 24 people. Early indications were that mechanical problems caused the fire, and then passengers’ oxygen tanks started exploding in rapid succession. At 11 p.m. EDT, Rita was centered about 55 miles southeast of Sabine Pass along the coast at the Texas-Louisiana border, moving northwest at near 13 mph, and forecasters said it could weaken further become coming ashore. The military sent cargo planes to evacuate hundreds of medical patients and others from Beaumont. Downtown Beaumont was all but deserted, with buildings boarded up and practically nothing moving but windblown plastic bags. On the horizon, covered in gray clouds, refinery torches belched black smoke. Sherry Gates, whose husband is maintenance director of the Beaumont Hotel, planned to stay behind to protect the place from looters. The hotel, she said, can withstand whatever Rita brings. “This old girl,” she said, “will see us out.” About 90 percent of Galveston’s 58,000 residents had cleared out, with the rest left to the mercy of a 17-foot seawall that was built after a 1900 hurricane that killed 6,000 to 12,000 of the island’s residents in what is still the deadliest natural disaster in U.S. history. “I’d rather die in my house than on the street,” Linda Rieffannacht said as Rita’s outer bands began pushing waves onto the seawall. “This way they will know where I am.” As the storm approached, at least three buildings caught fire in the city’s historic Strand District of nightclubs, shops and restaurants. It was unclear what caused the blaze, but a fallen electrical pole was lying on one of the buildings. High winds whipped the flames from structure to structure. In southwestern Louisiana, which was on the vulnerable east side of Rita and expected to get the brunt of a 20-foot storm surge, water was already lapping over roads in coastal Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes by midday. GINS From Page 1-A ricane Rita’s outer bands began to brush the Gulf Coast. The crew had already moved boats out of the water and away from the docks where they’re normally stored to protect them from the fierce storm. Regardless of the effects of the second major hurricane in less than a month to strike the Gulf Coast, the popular destination for Gulf Coast tourists and residents will be closed for the long term as crews work to restore the camp facilities and infrastructure after Katrina’s punch. “All the infrastructure, park buildings and decks are all unusable or are gone,” said Shauna Dyas, information officer for the incident management team. More than 200 crew members are working to restore the park and get it ready for the public. The National Park Service hopes to reopen the park sometime in the spring, though a more concrete date will not be determined for some time. “I think the people need to know that the park will not reopen anytime soon. It will be a long time before the people will be able to enjoy the park the way they use to,” Dyas said. One of the many buildings that took a beating during Hurricane Katrina was the William M. Colmer Visitor Center. The dock behind the center was jerked up by the winds of Katrina, then thrown into the building ripping large holes into the exterior of the building, according to John Submitted Photo A pier lies in ruins on Ship Island after being damaged by Hurricane Katrina.

The visitor center auditorium and bathrooms floors were still painted with mud and debris Friday as workers cleaned out the sludge left by Hurricane Katrina. The water rose to about four feet within the center and that the rehab for the building was going to be a long process. Along with the destruction of the visitor center, the electrical workings of the campsite and seashore also received extensive damage. All of the electrical boxes had to be replaced at the individual campsites and the electrical system at the dock had to be repaired so that boats and trucks could be used to assist with the clean up of the barrier islands. West Ship Island was sliced in half and that East Ship Island was under water, Tipton said. He described the situation at all of the barrier islands as a real mess. “They are working real hard to get it (the islands) clean, but it is a big job. There are dead alligators all over the place. The whole fort is full of mud and wood junk,” Dyas said. The incident command post and the National Park Service are not only concerned with restoring the seashore, they are also working to restore and aid the community. “While preserving the park and getting it up and running, the park and park services are working to get the community up and running too,” said Denny Ziemann, the Incident commander and chief ranger at Mojave National Reserve.

Displaced members from the Coast Guard and some displaced members of the community that qualify for FEMA trailers will also be using campsites at the park as their temporary homes. Park Rangers and other employees of Gulf Islands that are unable to live in their houses are already using the campsites as temporary homes. “We will continue to look for ways to make our resources available to the community. Parks services have taken a stance that if we have something that can help the community we will provide it,” Ziemann said.

Niceville head coach John Hicks had a premonition before the game that his special teams would play a big part in the outcome of the game. “I told Coach (Al) Jones before the game that we had good special teams and they stepped up big tonight for us,” Hicks said. After a Niceville touchdown that broke a scoreless tie in the third quarter, the Eagles special teams took advantage of a Rebels spe- cial teams blunder as Kevin Oates fell on a mishandled snap off a punt as it rolled into the end zone for an Eagles touchdown. The extra point was no good, but Niceville led the game 13-0 with 5:42 left in the third quarter. “Turnovers cost us big time tonight, but I felt their first drive of the second half set the tempo for the rest of the game,” Jones said. The Rebels then responded with an eight play, 80-yard drive highlighted by a 38-yard pass from Jordan Scott to Wendell Fairley and a 25-yard strike from Scott to Tim Pitts that moved the ball down to the Eagles’ 9. Two plays later, Scott found Tookie Hopkins from 13-yards out for Rebels touchdown.Green’s PAT made it 13-7 with 1:34 to go in the third quarter. However, the Eagles’ special teams was not done as Alex Barnett fielded Green’s kickoff at the 30-yard line and raced to the Rebels’ 13. Two plays later, Freeman found the end zone from 8-yards out to give the Eagles a 197 lead after a missed two-point conversion. From there, the Eagles defense took over forcing two Scott interceptions in the fourth quarter, with the last one coming at the NICEVILLE, FLA. 19 GEORGE COUNTY 7 Niceville 20 with 20 seconds left in the game. Scott finished the 19-of-28 for 107 yards and one touchdown, but was picked off three times. Fairley finished the game with 48 yards on three catches and Hopkins had three catches for 20 yards and a touchdown. Aaron Johnson was solid on the ground for George County rushing for 79 yards on 21 attempts. The Rebels totaled 248 yards total in the game. George County (1-2) will open its Region 45A slate next week when they travel to Harrison Central. Niceville moved to 4-0 on the season.

MARTIN — In a battle of the bees, the St. Martin Yellowjackets fell in a 15-10 home loss to the East Central Hornets Friday night in both teams’ first games since Hurricane Katrina stung the Coast. Ironically, wind and rain from Hurricane Rita blew through Joe Barlow Stadium throughout the night, making play sloppy and sporadic at times. Hornets’ junior quarterback and defensive end Jared Law played well on both sides of the ball, accounting for eight of East Central’s 15 points. Law scored first for the Hornets, dragging down St. Martin sophomore tailback Brandon Payton in the end zone for a safety, and later raced to a 20-yard touchdown. “Jared is a very capable athlete and he’s probably even a better defensive end than he is a quarterback,” said East Central head coach Toby Melton. “He does a good job for us and he’s a leader on both sides (of the ball).” The Yellowjackets owned the first quarter with Payton piling up 39 yards on the ground and eighth-grader Ryan L e p o m a connecting on a field goal to cap the first 12 minutes. Neither team was able to get on track for most of the first half-however, with both defenses playing tough. East Central’s Kareem Bailey notched a sack in the first quarter and Jordan Monarch registered an interception with St. Martin (0-2) threatening in the second quarter. Meanwhile, ’Jackets’ linebacker Bryan McClellan made some outstanding defensive plays, including an interception, and junior linebacker D.J. Russell sacked Law on another play. Michael Britt broke up a sure touchdown pass at the end of the second quarter. St. Martin came out of the locker room with a slim 3-0 lead and East Central (1-2) hit the ground running. Junior running back Justin Houston pounded out 65 of his 102 yards on the night in the third quarter. After Law closed the gap to 3-2 with his safety, Houston broke off a 26-yard touchdown run to give East Central a 9-3 lead after the extra point. “This was a major first win for us. We lost two tailbacks last week and we’ve got down to as low as 26 players at one time. We’re trying to build the program back up and it’ll take a few wins like this to get us back.” — East Central head coach Toby Melton “They just whipped us up front,” St. Martin head coach David Gregory said. “We just didn’t do a good job and didn’t come ready to play. “We’re just going to have to try and get better.” With 9:46 remaining in the fourth quarter, Law scored on his touchdown, which was set up by a 16yard pass from Law to Tyler Davis. St. Martin threatened to score after Payton returned the kickoff 20 yards and two separate personal foul penalties tacked another 30 yards to the return. But Law sacked St. Martin signal caller T.J. Hay twice and Hay’s pass fell incomplete on fourth down, ending the drive. Russell picked off a Law pass and gave the Yellowjackets the ball on the East Central 30. Payton scampered to the 1 on a 29-yard play and Hay punched the ball in from there with 6:21 left closing the gap to 15-10. “I’ve been in a slump on offense, but defense relieves a lot of stress because I can go hit somebody,” Law said. On the Yellowjackets’ final drive, Hay raced to the 20 on a 13-yard run but was again sacked by Law one play later. Hay connected with receiver Spencer Wallace on a 15yard play but his throw to the end zone fell short. Payton ended up with 63 yards rushing for St. Martin and Law ended up with 29 yards for the East Central. “This was a major first win for us,” Melton said. “We lost two tailbacks last week and we’ve got down to as low as 26 players at one time. We’re trying to build the program back up and it’ll take a few wins like this to get us back.” Gaylon Parker can be reached at gaylonparker@yahoo.com. EAST CENTRAL 15, ST.

Braves rally past Marlins By the Associated Press ATLANTA — Jeff Francoeur, Ryan Langerhans and Brian McCann had RBIs in the eighth inning and Atlanta moved a step closer to a 14th straight division title. McCann’s two-out single off closer Todd Jones (1-5) capped the rally that reduced the Braves’ magic number to five for winning the NL East. Josh Beckett extended his scoreless streak against the Braves to 19 innings this season, leaving after the seventh with a 3-0 lead. The Marlins have two wins in their last nine games and remained three games behind Houston in the wild-card race. Carlos Delgado drove in all three Marlins runs with an RBI single in the first and a two-run homer in the third off John Smoltz. Cubs 5, Astros 4 CHICAGO — Derrek Lee went 3-for-3 and made a spectacular defensive play at first base that preserved the victory for Chicago. Nomar Garciaparra drove in two runs for the Cubs, who handed the Astros only their second loss in the last 10 games. Houston’s lead in the wild-card race was cut to one game over Philadelphia. Trailing 5-1 after four innings, the Astros rallied tied it on an RBI double by Craig Biggio, an RBI single by Lance Berkman, an error by center fielder Corey Patterson that let a run score and Jeff Bagwell’s RBI when he was hit with a pitch with the bases loaded. It was after that when Lee made his fine play in the field, grabbing a grounder and throwing out Charles Gipson at the plate. Glendon Rusch (8-8) allowed four runs — three earned — and nine hits in five innings. Ryan Dempster pitched the ninth for his 30th save. MOBILE GREYHOUND PARK MATINEE POST TIME 1:00 MON., WED. & SAT. EVENING POST TIME 7:30 MON. – SAT. 1-800-272-5000 Min. age 18 Presidents Cup play gets even tighter From Wire Reports GAINESVILLE, Va. — Despite a sore back that had to be iced between shots, Tiger Woods carried along Jim Furyk and his sore ribs by making seven birdies in his first 12 holes for his first victory in better-ball format. But when the second session of matches ended Friday, all that did was help the American team stay close at the Presidents Cup. Adam Scott and Retief Goosen again proved to be an International juggernaut, and Vijay Singh came through with a clutch shot on the 17th hole that allowed him and Tim Clark earn a halve and take a 6 1/2-5 1/2 lead into the weekend. The six matches on a stormy afternoon ended 3-3, making Saturday a pivotal round. There will be five alernate-shot matches in the morning and five better-ball matches in the afternoon. And if it was anything like the second round, it could come down to the final holes. All of the matches reached at least the 16th hole, and two came down to the 18th. Texas Open SAN ANTONIO, Texas — Dean Wilson shot an 8-under 62 to take the lead at the Texas Open and David Duval made his first 36-hole cut this year. Wilson, best known for playing with Annika Sorenstam at the 2003 Colonial, had a 12under 128 total after two rounds at the LaCantera Golf Club, one stroke in front of Jeff Maggert and John Senden and nine in front of Duval, the world’s former No. 1 player who had missed 18 straight cuts and broken par just once this year before shooting a 1under 69 on Thursday. Duval’s previous cut was in the Michelin Championship last October. Wilson, who had Friday’s lowest round, finished third in this tournament last year. Seve Trophy BILLINGHAM, England — Britain-Ireland won the second set of fourballs 3-2, cutting Continental Europe’s lead to 6-4 after two days of the Seve Trophy. Britain-Ireland captain Colin Montgomerie kept the same teams that lost 4-1 Thursday, but rearranged the order. Montgomerie and Graeme McDowell lost 3 and 2 to Thomas Bjorn and Henrik Stenson, while Bradley Dredge and Stephen Dodd lost by two holes to Maarten Lafeber and Emanuele Canonica. However, the three other Britain-Ireland pairings, containing a total of five players from Europe’s Ryder Cup-winning team, won their matches. Georgia-Pacific Grand Champions ATLANTA — Mike McCullough won the Georgia-Pacific Grand Champions Championship, shooting a bogey-free 7-under 65 for a two-stroke victory over Bruce Summerhays in the unofficial Champions Tour event for players 60 and over. McCullough had an 11-under 133 total on the Hawks Ridge Golf Club. He earned $85,000 from the $400,000 purse. COLLEGE FOOTBALL No. 22 Iowa St. 28, Army 21 WEST POINT, N.Y. — Ryan Kock scored on two short runs in the fourth quarter and No. 22 Iowa State came back to beat Army 28-21 Friday night, denying the Black Knights their first win over a ranked opponent since 1972. Army (0-3) held Cyclones leading rusher Stevie Hicks to just 22 yards on nine carries, but the Black Knights couldn’t stop Kock, a 61, 240-pound fullback, from bulling in from 4 and 3 yards out, the last score coming with 6:50 left in the game. Army had two chances to tie the game. The first ended when the Black Knights couldn’t convert a fourth-and-3 at the Iowa State 22 with under a minute left. Army got the ball back with 10 seconds left but quarterback Zac Dahman was sacked at midfield as time ran out on the Black Knights’ first-ever Friday night game. For a time in the second half Army looked as if it might beat a ranked opponent for the first time since defeating No. 15 Air Force 1714 on Nov. 4, 1972.

That is not the case for the Southern Miss Golden Eagles. USM has only been able to play two games this season, posting a win over McNeese State last week after falling to Alabama the week before. USM was to open the season against Tulane on Sept. 4, but Hurricane Katrina postponed that game to later this season. The Golden Eagles had a second game postponed this week as they were set to travel to Houston. With that being the case, Jeff Bower’s team will have to play nine straight games, with all but one coming against a Conference-USA opponent. This has definitely been a year of adversity already for USM. On to this week’s games. Georgia JR. Wittner enters their matchup with Mississippi State a perfect 3-0 after posting wins against Boise State, South Carolina and Louisiana-Monroe. The Bulldogs from Athens, enter the game ranked No. 7 in the country, and due to the matchup between Tennessee and LSU being moved to Monday night, the game matching the teams named Bulldogs has been moved to 6:45 p.m., rather than at 8 p.m. The ’Dawgs and the ’Dogs have not met since 1997 when Georgia shut out MSU 47-0 in Athens. State has not beaten Georgia since a 38-14 win in Jackson in 1974, and this will not be the year that changes. Georgia 31, Mississippi State 10. The other game among the Big Three has Ole Miss with revenge on their minds. The Rebels made a 1,500 mile trip out West last season, only to lose 37-32 to Wyoming. The Cowboys return the trip today as they square off with the Rebels in Oxford. Wyoming wide receiver Jovon Bouknight was the difference last year in the game as he caught a touchdown and threw for what proved to be the game winning score. Ole Miss quarterback Michael Spurlock will miss the game after injuring his finger last week against Vanderbilt, and Robert Lane is going to make the start in his place. The Rebels defense had a hard time with the experienced passing game of Vanderbilt last week, and Bouknight and quarterback Casey Bramlet have the experience to pull and upset.

By JOEDY McCREARY The Associated Press AP Mississippi State running back Jerrious Norwood runs upfield against Tulane. Norwood will need a big game if State is going to upset Georgia. “Everything that we have done successfully on offense is because of the offensive line,” Shockley said. After winning three straight Between the Hedges, Shockley is making his first career start on the road, and Evans said Mississippi State must find a way to intimidate the fifth-year senior. “If we can just get pressure to him, rattle him a little bit, we’re going to be all right,” Evans said. Because of the SEC’s rotating interdivisional schedule, the teams haven’t played since Georgia won 47-0 in 1997. Mississippi State’s most recent win came in 1974, and Georgia has won the last seven meetings. With a victory, Georgia would improve to 4-0 for the third time in Richt’s five seasons. If Mississippi State wins, the Bulldogs would be 3-1 for the first time since 2000 — the last time they reached the postseason. “As long as we’re moving forward — some days it’s inches, some days it’s a yard or so,” Croom said. “The biggest thing in last year and this year is getting a foundation laid as far as our identity as a program and our identity as a football team. Our players are buying into that, we’re starting to win and we’ve just got to keep moving forward.” Wyoming making second trip into SEC AP Ole Miss quarterback Micheal Spurlock holds his injured left hand in the fourth quarter against Vanderbilt last week. The injury is keeping Spurlock out of this week’s game. Bramlet passed for 267 yards last week in OXFORD (AP) — Another new Southeastern Conference coach is welcoming the a 29-28 victory at Air Force. Ole Miss is breaking in a new starter at Wyoming Cowboys to town for his first quarterback — Robert Lane, used often as home game.

MVSU looking to end streak against Jackson State By The Associated Press Mississippi Valley State has its best shot in a decade to beat an old nemesis. The Delta Devils play host to Jackson State at 1 p.m. Saturday in a game moved up in anticipation of Hurricane Rita. Mississippi Valley State is 2-1 for the first time since 1992, and is going for its first victory over the Tigers since 1994. Jackson State has won the last 10 in the series and holds a 45-5-1 series lead. Leading the resurgent Delta Devils (2-1, 2-1) is Southwestern Athlet- ic Conference offensive player of the week Aries Nelson. The Mississippi State transfer was 26-of-43 passing for 318 yards and a touchdown in last week’s loss to Alabama A&M. Jackson State (1-2, 1-0) has one of the least productive offenses in the SWAC, but has the league’s best defense against the pass. Alabama St. vs. Alcorn St., 7 p.m Alcorn State (1-1) is the last Southwestern Athletic Conference team to make its league debut thanks to Hurricane Katrina. Alabama State (2-1, 2-0) leads the SMALL SCHOOLS SWAC in total offense, averaging a robust 6.9 yards per play. Alcorn State has the top rusher in Jeremy McCoy, who has 203 yards in two games on just 26 carries. Alabama State won last year’s meeting 41-8. Delta State at Henderson State, noon The Statesmen (2-2, 1-1 Gulf South) take on a Henderson State team it defeated 56-34 last season. Delta State is reeling after a 56- 21 loss to North Alabama. The Reddies were routed by Central Arkansas 55-7. Trying to slow talented Delta State quarterback Scott Eyster will be a Henderson State defense that ranks first in the Gulf South Conference against the pass. Hardin-Simmons at Mississippi College, 11 a.m. The Choctaws face an uphill climb against a Hardin-Simmons team that is ranked No. 4 in Division III. Mississippi College (0-1), which lost to Sul Ross State 36-17 last week in its opener, has been outscored 270-93 by Hardin-Simmons since the Choctaws’ lone win in the series, in 1997. Mississippi College lost 49-19 last year. Belhaven at Millsaps, 6 p.m. Millsaps enters this matchup of Jackson-area teams after a 24-23 victory over first-year program Concordia-Selma, while Belhaven is still looking for its first victory of the season.
