PUTNAM COUNTY — The remains
of a body found inside a burning outbuilding at an Edwards Lane residence
on Sunday morning have been identified.
Sports
The remains are that of 24-year-old
Christopher Joseph Patton, whose last
known address was Shady Oak Drive in
Cookeville.
“We are proceeding with this death investigation, but at this time, we do not
suspect that foul play was involved,”
Major Terry Hembree of the Putnam
County Sheriff’s Department’s criminal
investigation division told the HeraldCitizen this morning.
The discovery of Patton’s remains was
made when the Putnam County Fire Department was dispatched to the address,
located near the Bloomington Springs
community, shortly after 7:30 a.m. on
Sunday.
Upon their arrival, firefighters encountered an active fire in a wooden outbuilding behind the home, and as they
fought the blaze, they discovered the remains inside the shed.

PUTNAM COUNTY — A
couple of weeks can make a big
difference.
In the coming school year,
that amount of time will separate those students who are old
enough to start kindergarten
from those who aren’t — and
it’s a different cut-off date from
that of two years ago.
“We get calls a lot about what
the date is,” Director of
Schools Jerry Boyd said at last
week’s school board meeting as
board members approved an
update to the policy addressing
compulsory attendance ages.
While the 2013-2014 school
year’s cut-off date was Aug. 31
for a child to have reached his
or her fifth birthday and begin
kindergarten, this year (as it
also was last school year) it’s
16 days earlier — Aug. 15.
“It was passed in legislation, I
think, two years ago... and
we’ve just adjusted the policy,”
Boyd noted. “That’s the day
currently in the law and moving forward this year and thereafter.”
Parents of little ones who will
be 5 by Aug. 15 can go ahead
and mark their calendars for a

kindergarten registration and
orientation event set for April
12 from 1-5 p.m. at all elementary schools.
That’s when students and
families will have an opportunity to meet their teachers and

ALGOOD — A local man and woman
were killed in a wreck at Mirandy Road
and Highway 111 yesterday after the car
they were in collided with a fuel tanker.
William G. Reagan, 24, and Ashley B.
Sweat, 29, both of whom have Cookeville
addresses, were killed in the accident.
According to reports from the Tennessee
Highway Patrol, the accident happened
just after 5 p.m. yesterday.
Reagan was driving a 2002 Honda fourdoor sedan northbound on Highway 111,
and Sweat was a passenger in that vehicle.
The commercial vehicle, which was not
carrying fuel at the time of the traffic accident, was traveling southbound on Highway 111.
The wreck happened when the Honda
driven by Reagan attempted to make a left
turn from Highway 111 onto Mirandy
Road and turned directly into the path of
Algood council
starts long-term
budget discussions
By LAURA MILITANA
ALGOOD — The Algood city
council is looking ahead to the
next few years with regards to
big budget items.
An open meeting discussing
the five-year plan was held
Monday night in conjunction
with the council’s regular worksession, with Mayor Scott Bilbrey being the lone absent
member.
“We were going to try to get a
trailer this year...to haul the
backhoe on, but I do think we’re
going to need a trailer by next
year,” city administrator Keith
Morrison said. “The less I can
put that backhoe on pavement,
the better off we’re going to be,
especially on these long hauls.”
Other long-term things Morrison set out in the plan include in
the 2016/2017 budget allocating
$330,000 for a commercial
garbage truck, a snow plow in
the amount of $135,000, a first
responder truck in the amount
of $30,000, $10,000 for improvements to the community
center, $5,000 for entrance
signs, $85,000 for patrol cars,
and $55,000 for a water/sewer
truck.
Other items include $150,000

Sparta woman pleads guilty to sale and delivery of meth
By TRACEY HACKETT
COOKEVILLE — A 31-year-old Sparta
woman has pleaded guilty in Putnam
County Criminal Court to two counts of
sale and delivery of methamphetamine.
Shalana Irene Lang, whose address is
listed as Franklin Avenue in Sparta, was
originally charged with six counts of the
offense.
Lang will serve concurrently 10 years,
all of which will be suspended to probation, for each offense to which she has
pleaded.
She will also be required to pay a fine of
$2,000 for each of the two offenses to
which she pleaded.
She was indicted by the Putnam County
Grand Jury in November 2013, after she
allegedly sold drugs to undercover drug
officers multiple times.
Lang was arrested for those offenses on
Jan. 13 this year, and her initial appearance in Putnam County Criminal Court
was scheduled for Jan. 25.
On the day of that scheduled appearance, she entered the guilty plea to two of
those six offenses for which she was
charged.
Had her case gone to trial and had she
been found guilty, she could have faced a
sentence of eight to 30 years and a fine of

COOKEVILLE — A 43year-old Smithville man with
a past history of criminal activity and an arrest here just
two days earlier has again
been arrested
— this time for
the burglary at
a Pen Oak
Drive
residence.
Turnbill
Melvin Eugene Turnbill,
of Joe Evins Avenue in
Smithville, was arrested on
the burglary charge around
10:30 p.m. on Monday, just
two days after being arrested
for driving under the influence.
Both arrests were made by
the Cookeville Police Department, and according to a report by Officer Kyle Farley,
the man’s most recent arrest
came upon the officer being
dispatched to a possible burglary in progress.
“On arrival, I made contact
with a male, later identified
as Melvin Turnbill, at the
front door of the residence,”
Officer Farley reports.
The officer detained the man
in his patrol car while he
checked on the Pen Oak
Home, making contact with
the residents.
The homeowner reportedly
told the officer that Turnbill
“had attempted to gain entry
into the house through the
back and the front doors.”
According to the officer’s
report,
the
homeowner
thought the man had come
across a house key to the residence in an unlocked vehicle
outside the home.
“He had unlocked the door
at one point and was trying to
push the door open,” the officer reports that the homeowner told him.
A female resident said she
held the home’s deadbolt in
the locked position to keep
the man from entering the
home.
The officer returned to his
patrol car and asked Turnbill
if he had a key to the house.
The man reported to the officer that he did have a key
and that he got the key from
the unlocked car, as the
homeowners suspected.
According to Officer Farley’s report, he was able to retrieve the key from the man.
Officer Farley placed Turnbill under arrest for burglary
of a motor vehicle and transported him to the Putnam
County Jail.
“While en route to the jail,
Mr. Turnbill informed me that
he is currently on parole for
facilitation of first degree
murder out of DeKalb
County,” the officer reports.
Capt. Carl Sells, of the criminal investigation division,
told the Herald-Citizen that
Turnbill had been arrested by
the Cookeville Police Department on a charge of DUI two
days prior to the burglary incident.
Turnbill was booked with a
bond of $10,000 for the Monday burglary charge, and according to his arrest warrant,
his initial appearance in Putnam County General Sessions
Court is set for March 7.

At the time of that initial discovery, however, the victim’s
identity was unknown.
The remains were sent to the
medical examiner’s office for
autopsy, and determining who
the victim was became the primary focus of the investigation.
Residents of the Edwards Lane
address told authorities immediately following the blaze that
they reportedly had not given
anyone permission to be in the
outbuilding nor had they known
anyone was there at the time.
Upon the discovery of the victim’s identity, sheriff’s department sources this morning said
the residents have reportedly
confirmed that they were acquainted with Patton and that
the man had allegedly been at
their home on Saturday night,
just prior to the fire the following morning.
But they were reportedly unaware that he was on their property at the time the fire broke
out. As the death investigation
proceeds, authorities say, the
focus is now on trying to determine the victim’s cause of
death.
“As with any death, we are investigating this to try to determine the cause,” Major
Hembree told the Herald-Citizen following the incident.
The cause of the fire is also
still under investigation.
The incident is being investigated by state Bomb and Arson
and the Putnam County Fire
Department, as well as the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department.
“It’s always sad to work incidents that result in a loss of life,
but knowing the victim’s identity puts us another step closer
to knowing what we’re dealing
with in this ongoing investigation,” Putnam County Fire
Chief Daryl Blair said.
Sheriff Eddie Farris and Chief
Blair both commented on the
team work of the agencies involved, with Sheriff Farris calling it “commendable” and
Chief Blair calling it “phenomenal.”

During that event, parents
can enroll their children and
take home information about
school and district policies,
transportation, before- and
after-school child care, extended school day possibilities and school nutrition as
well as ideas for working with
them at home to prepare them
for kindergarten.
According to school policy,
children between ages 6 and

would attend for a one semester or one year deferral in required
attendance.
The

What Republicans
get wrong
about amnesty
S
ince when did being a conservative mean also having
to agree that some wall
with mythical powers could
“make America great again,” a la
Donald Trump?
Both Ronald Reagan and
George W. Bush were very proimmigration. After all, ”legal”
immigration is whatever the law
says it is. So if the law permits
someone who entered the country without permission to eventually obtain her green card and
live permanently in the United
States, he or
she is a legal
immigrant.
But now, to
be a respected Republican, you
need to
somehow
caucus with
Trump and
Ted Cruz
Christine
(and a someFlowers
times
squeamish
Marco Rubio) and come out loud
and strong against “amnesty.”
Let’s be clear on what
“amnesty” really is. The simplest
and most common definition of
amnesty is “a decision that a
group of people will not be punished” or “a group of prisoners
that will be allowed to go free.”
Since we’re not dealing with
prisoners, let’s focus on the “not
be punished” part.
Anyone who has examined any
of the proposals set forth by
George W. Bush during his
tenure, John McCain and Arlen
Specter a decade ago and the
Gang of Eight in 2013 would, if
they were honest, acknowledge
that not one so-called illegal immigrant was going to be getting
off scot-free.
In the best-case scenario, they
were going to have to wait many
years before actually becoming
lawful residents or citizens, pay
fines, learn English and clear the
kind of background checks that
not even Hillary Clinton could
pass.
The proposal of the Gang of
Eight was a bipartisan attempt to
address head-on an issue that
had languished in Congress and
at grass-roots levels for years,
with no sure resolution. In addition to providing a decade-long
process for legalization, it also
required certainty that the border
with Mexico and the U.S. is secured within five years of its
passage. The proposal passed the
Senate, but died in the House.
The people who scream about
amnesty are being dishonest, because nowhere in any piece of
legitimate legislation has there
been a “decision that a group of
people will not be punished.”
Telling someone to pay thousands of dollars in fines, wait
many years before becoming legalized, possibly returning home
and waiting outside of the country for long stretches or even relinquishing the right to ever
become a citizen is not exactly a
slap on the wrist.
And people like Clinton, who
stuff their rallies with burqas and
Latinos and “Dreamers,” are
nothing more than panderers
using immigrants as a bargaining
chip. Then there are the people
who actually tried to do something, such as Rubio (who has
since backtracked) or Chuck
Schumer, who was willing to
sleep with the enemy to move
the ball forward.
And that, sadly, is all this
amnesty talk is. While I will not
vote for Hillary or Bernie
Sanders, I’m also not going to
look at Trump or Cruz or any of
the other GOP candidates who
exploit, in their own fashion, irrational American fears. The
whole idea that refugees are really ISIS operatives waiting to
pounce makes for great sound
bites, but is statistically fraudulent.
Just last week I had five Central American clients in my law
office trying to legally seek
refuge in this country. They were
doing it legally, because there is
a law that gives them that right.
They deserve respect.
And unless the GOP candidates
realize that, and stop talking
about “amnesty,” they are guaranteeing that another Democrat
named Clinton will be sitting in
the Oval Office come January.
So, run Marco, run. And stop
apologizing for one of the things
you actually got right.

Second wave subsides
T
wo recent comments by famous
feminists have underscored the
inevitable and predicted the
foregone: The feminist era of Hillary
Clinton, Gloria Steinem and
Madeleine Albright has come to a
close.
Each heroic in her own way, these
three icons of second-wave feminism
have reached a pinnacle of sorts,
along with the bittersweet recognition
that they are sorely out of touch with
today’s younger women. The world
they knew and helped change has produced a new generation no longer as
concerned with the issues that animated their mothers and grandmothers.
So it goes.
Adding possible injury to insult, liberal millennial women are tilting toward Bernie Sanders rather than she
who would be the first woman president of the United States. What are
they thinking?
Albright and Steinem, speaking on
different days in different environments, offered comments that are by
now familiar: “There’s a special place
in hell for women who don’t help each
other,” said Albright, who was the
first female U.S. secretary of state.
And, “When you’re young you’re
thinking, ’Where are the boys?’ The
boys are with Bernie,” said Steinem,
co-founder of Ms. Magazine and
iconic leader of the ’60s feminist
movement.
Much bestirring followed on social
media. The gist of critics: How dare
Steinem insinuate that young women
are just chasing boys? And, how dare
Albright curse young women for failing to support Clinton!
They have a point.
But they’re missing the bigger point
that had these women not cut a path
for others to enter and expect to be
treated fairly in
the workplace and
elsewhere, these
same young
women would, indeed, be following
the boys in hopes
of inserting an
“R” between the
“M” and the “S”
in their titles, as
their predecessors
Kathleen
had to.
Parker
This is the irony,
isn’t it? Of all
people to suggest that girls just wanna
have fun with boys: Though it’s not
necessarily untrue, Steinem has lived
a life based on quite the opposite
premise. It was she, after all, who
said, “A woman without a man is like
a fish without a bicycle.” Come on,
it’s funny. And it is certainly true to
women of a certain age.
Albright’s comment, meanwhile, is a
well-known and, perhaps, worn-out
trope of the former secretary’s. Now
78, she might have imagined that her
audience — at a Clinton rally —
would have been familiar with it and
responded with laughter, as had so
often been the case.
Rather than cursing younger versions
of herself, she was offering a gift in
the spirit of Arnold Schwarzenegger
saying, “I’ll be back,” or Ronald Reagan saying, “Win one for the Gipper.”
Whether some of the young women
preferring Sanders to Clinton are also
interested in boys, a not-dishonorable
distraction, was probably a weak stab
at humor, for which Steinem, 81, has
apologized. Also, she was talking to
Bill Maher on his show, hardly the
forum for solemn pronouncements.
The more likely explanation, however, is that young liberal women, like
their male counterparts, are attracted
There’s an app for that!
A
million-dollar inspiration hit me
after spending a week in the car
driving across this great land of ours
with Sue.
My idea would be a new variation on the
GPS navigation systems in cars now. Instead of the voice coming from the dashboard, it would use the speakers in the
backseat and say things like, “Turn left,
idiot! Not here, the next left!” And “Are
you sure you know where you’re going?”
And of course, “You know the speed limit
is 45 here.”
How helpful would that be? Not so much
for the driver, but for the passenger, who
could now do crossword puzzles or play
Candy Crush instead of wasting time helping to navigate. At least then someone could
enjoy the drive.
Another million-dollar idea I had was for
an app that could tell me how long I’d be
without cellphone service. “Your phone will
reconnect to the modern world in one day
and 16 hours.”
One thing I never realized about the
fruited plain is how big it is. It goes on and
on and on and on. Now I know how a gerbil
must feel on its wheel. No matter how fast
you go, the view never changes.
“The speed limit here is 65.”
“Did you say something?”
“I’m just saying the speed limit here is
65.”
“I’m doing 69. We
haven’t seen a car in
two hours.”
“We passed one 15
minutes ago.”
“Do you want to
drive? Can your legs
reach the pedals from
the backseat?”
Of course, the entire
ride wasn’t like that.
Jim
Most of the time it was
just one long, seething
Mullen
silence. After about
eight hours of that, it’s
time to chill out and relax.
“Oh, look, there’s a Motel 2 at the next
exit.”
“For once, can’t we stay at a Motel 3? The
shower in the Motel 2s are so small that I
have to break the soap in half so I can use
it.”
“Fine, we’ll just spend the $4 more. Like
we’re made out of money. Where’s the next
Motel 3?”
“The very next exit.”
The very next exit turned out to be 67
miles away. It had a Motel 3 and not much
else: a restaurant that said “Family Dining”
and a Gas & Go Away. It turned out we
should have eaten at the Gas & Go Away;
the food would have been better.
Did I mention that I am a morning person
and Sue is not? Do you know how hard it is
to take a shower, get dressed, go back and
forth to the car a few times and practice
electric guitar without waking someone up?
Face it, there’s just no making some people
happy. I’ve been up since 5, and we finally
hit the road at 11.
It seems my million-dollar ideas are a
dime a dozen, but there should be another
travel app that says absolutely nothing until
you’ve been on the road for 20 minutes,
then says, “Did you remember to bring the
cellphone charger?”
Twenty minutes later it will say, “What
about your heart medicine?” Another 15
minutes, then, “Did you turn in the key

We still don’t know where our email got
hacked; was it from using the Motel 3’s free
Wi-Fi, or was it at a rest stop on the way?
Anyway, if you get an email saying that
we’re in Turkey and our wallet was stolen
and won’t you please send us $2,500 — we
aren’t. However, I would love to go to
Turkey and finally scratch that off my
bucket list, so if you have an extra $2,500
lying around, I’m your man.
Actually, I don’t know if $2,500 is
enough. Turkey’s a big country and I’d like
to see it all. Unless I have to do all the driving.

to the cool old guy because he’s promising a dream in which the rich have
less and the poor have more. Robin
Hood is so awesome.
And socialism has always appealed
to the young, the cure for which isn’t
age but responsibility. This usually
comes in the form of taxes and children, both of which involve working
and sacrificing for the benefit of others, the extent of which forms the axis
upon which all politics turns. That
Sanders never outgrew his own socialist-rebellious tendencies — We’re
going to have a revolution! — is
vaguely interesting, but not his best
recommendation for commander in
chief, among other presidential duties.
Clinton, ever the adult in the room,
may be doomed by her own sober
“momliness.” To whom do children
run to when Mom is no fun? She isn’t
helped by the two elder women in the
room.
What is obvious, if bittersweet, is
that Steinem and Albright, and possibly Clinton by association, have
passed the baton, if without realizing
it. Through their temerity and hard
work, they’ve created a world in
which their original purposes have become obsolete through acceptance.
Millennial women, who reached
adulthood around 2000, and those afterward have never known a world in
which they were not treated to daily
doses of go-girl power. They’ve never
known a time when abortion wasn’t
an option.
They really can have it all, including
the choice to not vote for a woman
just because she’s a woman because,
after all, this would be sexist.
And no one would want that.

PUTNAM COUNTY WEEK
The Baxter Hotel.
Baxter Hotel — Main Street Baxter 1923
Charlie Hughes begins to climb the pole in his yard to
sound his bugle.
Baxter’s Human
Alarm Clock blew
his bugle on a pole
from 1922-1953
The Baxter Bugler, Charlie
Hughes climbed a 30 ft. pole
in his backyard, sat on a
wooden box and trumpeted
reveille at 4:30 every morning, without fail, from 1922
until 1953. He liked the exercise, whereas neighbors and
folks all over town could hear
it, depending on which way
the wind was blowing.
His notoriety grew, the Bugler was flown to New York
City, blew his $2.98 bugle
into the mic, over the radio
program “We the People”
being heard coast to coast.
After health conditions
made him end his morning
climb, he would ring a diner
bell for several years.
Charlie had a park at his
home, where elementary
school classes would take a
field trip to his house. He
made his see-saws, swings
and merry-go-round, showing
the kids his animals, letting
the kids ride some of the animals, all was free. Charlie
loved having children visit
him.
The building of the hotel began in 1901,
completed in 1902.
The land was purchased from W.R. Bradford by George W. Hays. Brick and lumber
used in construction was purchased from the
Atlantic Lumber Company. The postal serv-
ice came from Ai, and the town was called
Mine Lick. In 1902, Mine Lick was changed
to Baxter. John E. and Cora Lee Oliver became owners of the hotel on December 12,
1911.
The hotel remianed in the Oliver Family for
66 years. The hotel property was sold to the
city on February 15, 1977.
The current city hall (officially named the
John E. Oliver Community Center) was built
using the columns from the Baxter Seminary’s Pfeiffer Hall.
Baxter Depot built in 1904
The rails were completed
through Baxter in 1890. The
Tennessee Central rail lines
were eventually laid from
Nashville to Harriman. The
original depot was built in
1904. The Baxter Depot
served as a “hub” where the
mail was picked up and
dropped off.
Produce and poultry were
sent to the big cities from Baxter. Large crowds would gather
with excitement waiting the
arrival of the passenger trains
to welcome friends home and
see visitors.
The completeion of the rail
lines made people become
more aware of business opportunities. Baxter is the exact
distance of 82.4 miles by railway to either Nashville or
Knoxville, TN.
The Baxter Depot.
Pfeiffer
Hall first
at Baxter
Seminary
The Baxter Seminary broke
ground for the Pfeiffer Hall
1930. The building was mainly
funded by the Pfeiffer Family
for the administration building.
The Baxter Seminary had attendance over 10,000 students.
The Pheiffer Hall became the
main building for Upperman
High School in 1959 when
Baxter Seminary was sold to
the Putnam County Board of
Education.
Pheiffer Hall was torn down
in 1976 when a new Upperman
High School building was built
right up against it on the left
side. The auditorium was built
after Pheiffer Hall was removed.

Yellen to face Congress amid uncertainty on Fed rate policy
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
the Fed’s role in supporting the U.S. economy.
After testifying to the House Financial Services
Committee on Wednesday, Yellen will address the
Senate Banking Committee on Thursday.
Last week’s jobs report for January further complicated the likelihood and timetable of additional
rate increases. It showed more pay for workers and
rising confidence among job seekers, even though
the pace of hiring slowed.
So are more Fed rate hikes coming soon?
There is less certainty now than when the Fed
raised its target rate for overnight lending on Dec.
16 from a record low near zero to a range of 0.25
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Reserve Chair
Janet Yellen will address Congress on Wednesday
at a time of deepening uncertainty about the Fed’s
interest rate policies.
Since the Fed raised rates from record lows in December, the economic landscape has become
clouded by falling stock markets, global weakness
and sharply lower energy prices. Against that backdrop, lawmakers will likely want to question Yellen
about the probable pace of further rate hikes and

prices have squeezed energy companies.
On the other hand, the job market — the most
vital part of the economy — remains solid. Worker
pay is even starting to show its first significant
gains since the Great Recession ended 6½ years
ago. The Fed has long awaited faster wage growth
for evidence that the job market is as strong as the
steady hiring gains and low unemployment rate
(now 4.9 percent) would suggest.
After the Fed began raising rates late last year, the
widespread expectation was that it would continue
to boost its benchmark rate gradually but steadily,
most likely starting in March.

So far this year, the Dow Jones industrial average
has lost 8.1 percent. The Standard & Poor’s 500
index is down 9.4 percent. And the tech-heavy Nasdaq has plunged 14.8 percent.
It’s unclear how much Yellen will say about the
likely timetable for rate increases. She and other
Fed officials have stressed that their decisions remain “data dependent” — that is, hinge largely on
the latest economic data.
Much of that data since December has been tepid.

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) —
For Donald Trump, for one night,
there was so much winning.
The billionaire political novice
on Tuesday posted a decisive victory in the New Hampshire primary, a once-unthinkable first for
an enterprise built on the promise
of putting America on top and
turning politics on its head.
Restive Democrats had their own
act of anti-establishment defiance, lining up behind Vermont
Sen. Bernie Sanders, while delivering a broad rejection of Hillary
Clinton’s second bid for the
White House.
“We are going to make our
country so strong,” Trump told a
raucous crowd in Manchester,
with typical bombast. “We are
going to make America so great
again. Maybe greater than ever
before.”
With votes still being tallied,
Trump led with 34 percent of the
vote. In his wake was a field of
Republicans still-struggling to
break out of the pack. With about
16 percent, Ohio. Gov. John Kasich surged from relative obscurity to second-place, a feat his
poorly funded campaign will
struggle to replicate. Texas Sen.
Ted Cruz, former Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush and Florida Sen. Marco
Rubio jostled for third place,
while a disappointed New Jersey
Gov. Chris Christie trailed behind.
The results offered little clarity
to the nomination battles likely to

stretch on into the spring — giving the parties’ establishment fits
and testing voters’ commitment
to the outsider excitement. Republicans head to South Carolina, a hotbed of tea party
groups and evangelical voters
that will test Trump’s staying
power. Democrats move on to
Nevada, where Sanders will
leave his New England neighborhood and try to prove his mettle
with a more diverse and urban
electorate.
Sanders was leading Clinton by
21 percentage points, with
roughly 90 percent of the vote
tabulated.
“We have sent a message that
will echo from Wall Street to
Washington, from Maine to California,” he told a cheering crowd
in Concord, later asking viewers
to log-on and send cash to fuel
his next steps.
“The government of our great
country belongs to all of the people and not just a handful of
wealthy campaign contributors,”
Sanders declared.
Clinton tried to show she’d
heard the message.
“People have every right to be
angry,” she said, as she conceded
to Sanders. “But they are also
hungry. They’re hungry for solutions. What are we going to do?”
A night of victory speeches
from a reality TV tycoon and
avowed democratic socialist was
all-but unimaginable six months
ago, before outsider fever
gripped both parties’ search for a
president. But the outcome had
been brewing for months.
Trump’s campaign seized the top
slot in New Hampshire and never
relented, despite rivals dumping
millions into advertising and late
signs that Rubio’s strong thirdplace showing in Iowa had
earned him a second look. In remarks Tuesday night, Rubio acknowledged his bungled debate
performance Saturday night hurt
him: “It’s on me,” he said.
Ted Cruz, the Iowa winner and
a favorite of social conservatives,
proved unable to win over New
Hampshire’s more moderate
brand of Republican.

Man
arrested
for identity
theft,
forgery
By TRACEY HACKETT
COOKEVILLE — A 39-yearold man in Cookeville has been
arrested for identity theft and
forgery.
Ronaldo Bartolome Ignacia
was charged with the offenses
by the Tennessee Highway Patrol’s Identity Crimes Unit recently.
According to reports by
Trooper Jeff Phann, he received a report that someone
locally had been using the
identity of a Texas man.
An investigation into that report led the trooper to Ignacia.
“During the investigation, [I]
determined that the defendant
had used illegal identity to gain
employment at a business in
Putnam County and had continued to use the victim’s name
and Social Security information for over 16 years as an employee of that company,”
Trooper Phann reports.
According to the trooper’s
findings in that investigation,
Ignacia had also obtained a
Tennessee identification card
more than 10 years ago using
the victim’s name and Social
Security number.
And he forged the victim’s
name on the application for
that document.
Ignacia had reportedly been
using the victim’s identity
since 1997.
Through the investigation,
Trooper Phann said he found
that the Ignacia had purchased
the Social Security number and
birth certificate with the victim’s identity information for
$1,000 upon his entry across
the border into the United
States.
Ignacia is charged with two
counts of identity theft, which
is a class D felony, and a count
of forgery.
He was transported to the Putnam County Jail, where he was
booked on a total bond of
$12,500.
According to his arrest warrants, his initial appearance in
Putnam County General Sessions Court has been set for
March 7.

EAR ABBY: My son,
“Chad,” is being married
in June to “Jenny,” a girl
his sister “Madison” introduced
him to. Madison feels she
should be a bridesmaid in their
wedding because she introduced
them. Madison had sex with
Jenny’s boyfriend “Axel” before
she met Chad, got pregnant and
had Axel’s baby.
Jenny feels Madison screwed
up her life and, even though
she’s about to marry my son,
she doesn’t want to reward
Madison by asking her to be in
the wedding. My daughter says
if she’s not

won’t attend, and
won’t allow

Axel) to be

their wedding the
way they want. I do not want to
miss my only son’s wedding because my daughter feels
slighted. What should I do and
say? — COMPLICATED IN
WEST VIRGINIA
DEAR COMPLICATED:
While it’s unfortunate that
Jenny can’t let bygones be bygones in the interest of future
family harmony, you must not
allow your daughter to dictate
the plans for her brother’s wedding. When the big day arrives,
you should definitely attend and
celebrate with Chad and Jenny.
If Madison chooses not to attend as a guest, that’s her decision, and you should not allow
her to make it your problem.
DEAR ABBY: My mother
married a man, “George,” a few
years ago. They met online, and
he makes her happier than I’ve
ever seen her. Our entire family
adores George and is supportive
of their marriage.
My husband and I had our first
child, “Ella,” this year. This has
made Mom’s dreams of becoming a grandma come true.
When I see George hold, play
with, or just be in the same
room with my daughter, I can’t
help but keep a really close eye
on how he acts with her. He hasn’t said or done anything for me
not to trust him, but it makes me
really uneasy, and I want to restrict his interaction with her.
It is my responsibility to protect my baby girl, and I’m extracautious because I was molested
as a young girl. I can’t discuss
this with Mom because she
doesn’t know about what happened to me, and I know this
would cause a huge fight between us.
How can I limit George’s contact with Ella while still giving
Mom the time she wants with
her? Is this intuition or paranoia? — CAUTIOUS IN
KANSAS
DEAR CAUTIOUS: Why
does your mother not know
what happened to you as a
child? Did you stay silent because you were afraid you
wouldn’t be believed? Because
you wanted to protect her? Because your abuser was your father? You should have told her.
It was her job to protect YOU.
I think the time has come for
you to let her know what happened and how it has affected
you. While I can appreciate
your reason for not trusting
men, not all men are molesters.
If you would feel better keeping
a close eye on your daughter’s
interactions with males until
she’s old enough to know what
kind of touches are appropriate
and which ones are not, that’s
your privilege. And if it leads to
an argument with your mother,
you will just have to stand by
your decision.

ESPN weighs down Disney’s quarter
By RYAN NAKASHIMA
AP Business Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) — ESPN,
the sports network that drives Disney’s profit engine, has hit a soft
patch. Subscribers have fallen by
about 7.2 million over the last three
years, according to Nielsen, and it’s
coming off a round of layoffs in the
latest quarter. As more people cut the
cord to watch programming online,
its perch on top of the pay TV empire is looking unsteady at best.
The network’s troubles are a bellwether for one of TV’s biggest challenges: the ever-increasing cost of
sports rights and whether consumers
want to keep footing the bill.
The conundrum was reflected in
Disney’s quarterly earnings Tuesday.
Even though “Star Wars: The Force
Awakens” helped Disney’s earnings
soar 32 percent to a record $2.9 billion, its television profits slumped
by 6 percent, in part due to increases
in the cost of sports-broadcast rights.
It was Disney’s second profit decline
in the TV segment in the last four
quarters. Shares fell 3 percent to
$89.48 in after-hours trading, the
lowest level in more than a year.
Major media companies have invested $130 billion in sports rights
over the next several years, Morgan
Stanley analyst Benjamin Swinburne said in a recent investor presentation. But the cost of those rights
is increasing faster than the revenue
those companies reap.
Leading the pack of big spenders:
Disney and its ESPN juggernaut,
which accounts for an estimated 29
percent of those long-term contract
rights, from “Monday Night Football” to the NBA playoffs. Should
the ad market falter and the pay TV
audience decline even faster than its
current 1 percent a year — the “bear
case” — Disney’s overall profit
growth rate for the next four years
could be nearly halved, Swinburne
said.
Disney CEO Bob Iger sought to
rebut worries on Tuesday’s conference call, saying ESPN actually saw
a mild uptick in subscribers after the
quarter ended. (Nielsen put ESPN
subscribers at 91.4 million in January, down from 94.5 million a year
ago.) Iger surmised the improvement
had to do with good sales of Dish
Second City names comedy school for Ramis
CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago
improv troupe Second City is
opening a school focusing on
comedic filmmaking and naming it after late writer-directoractor Harold Ramis.
Second City said Tuesday
that applications are being accepted for the school’s yearlong filmmaker program that
starts in September in Chicago.
Students enrolled in the intensive program will learn comedy training, film history,
storytelling and film production. They’ll produce a pilot
TV show or short film.
Ramis’ longtime collaborator
and film producer Trevor Albert will be the chairman.
Network’s Sling TV online bundle
of channels, which includes ESPN
for a relatively inexpensive $20 a
month.
“This notion that either the expanded basic bundle is experiencing
its demise, or that ESPN is cratering
in any way from a sub perspective,
is just ridiculous,” Iger said. “Sports
is too popular.” He said the company
would be looking for more opportunities to sell ESPN into so-called
“skinny bundles” that are cheaper
than most pay TV packages today.
Iger’s comments helped stanch the
bleeding, said Robin Diedrich, an
analyst at Edward Jones, who has a
“buy” rating on the stock. That’s in
part because its other segments from
movies to theme parks are booming.
“Even considering some of the risk
and slowdown we are seeing in
media, we look at this as a really
good buying opportunity,” she said.
Still, ESPN’s impact at Disney is
huge because it leads the cable networks division that accounted for
nearly half of Disney’s operating income last year. Sports rights “may
ultimately turn into more risk than
reward,” Swinburne said.

y most favorite newest kitchen
gadget is fun and it makes delicious whipped cream. When I
watched a friend pour heavy cream into a
canister and seconds later squirt fresh
whipped cream on strawberry shortcake, I
was hooked. “Your Grands will love it!”
Kathy said. “I can’t believe you don’t have
one of these.”
So I put whipped cream dispenser at the
top of my birthday wish list last summer.
“What’s that?” Husband asked. “It’s just for
whipped cream?”
“Lots of really delicious whipped cream
and it keeps in the refrigerator for almost
two weeks and our
Grands and I will love
Where
it. They can squirt their
We Are
own.” I tried to justify
the cost.
“Whipped cream
tonight!” I said, when I
ripped open the package. I had bought a pint
of heavy cream in anticipation of serving it
with birthday cake. But
that wasn’t to be. I’d
neglected to notice that
chargers were needed.
Susan
Chargers filled with
Ray
N2O, nitrous oxide,
and sold specifically as
whipped cream propellant.
I eagerly waited for the delivery of chargers and the day they arrived I was as giddy
as a kid with a new puppy. That night I
poured cream in the metal canister, added a
little powdered sugar and vanilla, and Husband dispensed the N2O charger. Following
the manual’s directions, he shook the canister exactly six times and then, as a test, I
pressed the nozzle toward the kitchen sink.
Whipped cream splattered the sink. Husband’s turn. More splatters. On the next
page of the manual, the directions for operation were specific. “The whipper must be
held “headfirst” (with the decorator tip facing vertically downwards!) and the lever
must be operated gently.” It worked! Holding the canister vertical, not at a 45-degree
angle, I sprayed whipped cream into a big
serving spoon and licked it clean.
We’ve eaten whipped cream on brownies,
ice cream, banana pudding, cake. All
desserts are better with real cream. A little
cream makes my morning coffee perfect.
And the Grands do like my new gadget. A
lot.
Last week, our five in-town Grands ate
lunch with Husband and me, and after lunch
Annabel, age 6, asked, “Can we have a
treat?”
“Well, we still have some ice cream cake,”
Husband said.
“With whipped cream?” Samuel, age 10,
asked.
“Sure.”
“Can I do my own?” eight-year-old Elsie
asked.
Husband nodded and put slices of the
frozen cake on plates. He shook the
whipped cream canister and helped Elsie
hold it straight down. Samuel stood close
waiting his turn to squirt cream.
And as Elsie told her mother later, “I
squirted the whipped cream and there was a
giant whipped cream explosion and it went
everywhere.” Yes, a whipped cream explosion.
I was at the kitchen table with my back
turned, helping the younger Grands put
away their lunch plates. I heard a loud
swoosh and Elsie scream, “Oooohhhh!”
Husband, Elsie, and Samuel were covered
with white blobs. Face, hair, clothes. The
floor, the stove, kitchen counters — everything within a few feet was splattered.
The shocked looks on Elsie’s, Samuel’s
and Husband’s faces quickly changed to
surprise chuckles and then to hysterical
laughter. What a mess! And what laughing!
“I don’t know where to start,” Husband
said. Samuel and Elsie licked whipped
cream off their arms. Eventually, the mess
was cleaned up and the Grands ate their ice
cream cake, sans whipped cream.
Like I said, the gadget is fun and makes
yummy real whipped cream. But when it’s
almost empty, watch out.

Records fall as
winter heat wave
hits Southern
California
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A
midwinter heat wave baked
Southern California again
Tuesday, breaking more February records as temperatures
soared into the 80s and 90s
even as the Santa Ana winds
that stoked the atmosphere
began to fade.
Records for the date fell by
midday as temperatures
climbed into the upper 80s, and
by afternoon there were numerous readings in the 90s
throughout the region.
Downtown Los Angeles
topped out at 89 degrees, beating the old Feb. 9 record by 4
degrees. The high was 21 degrees above normal for the
date, the National Weather
Service said.
Other records were set or tied
in Long Beach, where it
reached 92 degrees, Santa Barbara, Camarillo and at Los Angeles International Airport.
Unseasonable warmth began
building over the weekend as
high pressure set into the Great
Basin, sending air flowing toward Southern California. The
gusty, dry Santa Ana winds
form as air descends through
mountain passes and canyons,
warming through compression
and pushing out to sea.
Red flag warnings for wildfire danger that were posted on
Monday were not reissued
Tuesday as the winds subsided.
Senate eyes hitting NKorea with tougher sanctions
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Senate is considering hitting
North Korea with more stringent
sanctions in the wake of Pyongyang’s satellite launch and
technical advances that U.S. intelligence agencies say the reclusive
Asian nation is making in its nuclear weapons program.
The bill that senators are expected to vote on Wednesday targets North Korea’s ability to
access the money it needs for developing miniaturized nuclear
warheads and the long-range missiles to deliver them, according to
the legislation’s backers.
The House overwhelmingly approved a similar measure last
month and there is strong bipartisan support in the Senate for the
North Korea Sanctions and Policy Enhancement Act.
“The kind of belligerence we’ve
seen from Pyongyang must not be
ignored,” Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky
Republican, said Tuesday.
North Korea on Sunday
launched a long-range rocket carrying an Earth observation satellite into space.
The launch, which came about a

ongyang’s open efforts to manu-
facture nuclear-tipped missiles
capable of striking the U.S. mainland and that the technology used
to launch a rocket carrying a
satellite into space can be applied
to fire a long-range missile.
In the annual assessment of
global threats delivered to Congress on Tuesday, Director of National Intelligence James R.
Clapper said North Korea has expanded a uranium enrichment facility and restarted a plutonium
reactor that could start recovering
material for nuclear weapons in
weeks or months.
Both findings will deepen concern that North Korea is not only
making technical advances in its
nuclear weapons program, but is
working to expand what is
thought to be a small nuclear arsenal. U.S.-based experts have estimated that North Korea may
have about 10 bombs, but that
could grow to between 20 and
100 by 2020.
Clapper said that Pyongyang has
not flight-tested a long-range, nuclear-armed missile but is committed to its development.
Underscoring the difficulty of
understanding North Korea’s actual intentions, Clapper said the
U.S. does not know whether
North Korea would use nuclear
weapons for defensive or retaliatory purposes.

“I think if we (pave) Main Street after the
water line (improvement) and take
$150,000 out of general fund and maybe
do a $150,000 out of the street aid account, that would ease the cost there and
try to push the sidewalks to maybe to
$40,000, even $50,000 to put a few sidewalks in,” Morrison said.
“$40,000 would allow us to do several
more sidewalks.”
Victor Jones, public works director,
spoke about the snow plow and commercial garbage truck.
“We’re working on our snow plow as we
speak, but the rust has gotten it pretty
good,” he said. “Right now is the time to
start thinking.”
As for the commercial garbage truck, it’s
showing its age.
“It’s about 13 years old and has rust really bad,” Jones said.
The one budgeted isn’t just a regular
commercial garbage truck — it has an automated loader so personnel can dispose
of residential cans and commercial dumpsters.
“This would allow us to sell the backup
residential (garbage truck),” Morrison
said.
That truck has a good transmission and
engine, but the body is not in good shape.
“This (new) truck can also haul twice as
much trash, allowing the truck to run all
day without dumping,” Morrison said.
“And there’s no manpower on the back of
the truck. It would make it a whole lot easier to do things.”

Troopers said that neither Reagan nor Sweat were wearing seat
belts at the time of the wreck,
but according to the officer’s
opinion, seat belts would not
have made a difference in the
outcome of the wreck.
At this time, drinking or drugs
are not believed to be factors
contributing to the accident, but
as standard procedure in such
situations, troopers who worked
the wreck requested tests on
both victims and the driver of
the fuel tanker, who was not injured.
The accident is under investigation by Trooper Matilda Mahaney.
The THP’s Critical Incident
Response Team is performing an
accident reconstruction, which
is also standard procedure in situations resulting in two or more
fatalities.
The current snow plow is eat up with
rust.
“I’ve got a quote for a single-axle dump
truck that would have an insert bed instead
of salt being dumped in the actual truck
bed, a slide in insert with an automatic
feeder...that would hopefully keep a lot of
the salt off the inside of the bed and extend
the life of the bed,” Morrison said.
The funds budgeted for the community
center would be for kitchen upgrades and
clean up.
Morrison would like to have entrance
signs on both ends of town, but definitely
have one set up in the next year.
In 2017/2018 budget, Morrison suggested allocating $60,000 for construction
of the farmers market, $10,000 for the
community center, $45,000 for public
works trucks, $125,000 for paving,
$45,000 for sidewalks and $65,000 for patrol cars.
In the 2018/2019 budget, Morrison is
looking to allocate $340,000 for a new fire
engine, along with $125,000 for paving,
$45,000 for sidewalks, $45,000 for public
works trucks, $10,000 for the community
center and $45,000 for patrol cars.
In the 2019/2020 budget, $125,000
would be allocated for paving, $45,000 for

Titans release safety Griffin
By TERRY McCORMICK
TitansInsider.com
NASHVILLE — The makeover of the
Tennessee Titans is beginning as the
team turned the page on a long-time fixture in the secondary Tuesday, releasing
safety Michael Griffin.
Griffin, a two-time Pro Bowl selection,
was the Titans first-round pick in 2007
and after a brief try as a cornerback, became a fixture at free safety in the Titans
secondary.
Griffin reacted to his release with a
comment on his Twitter account: “I
knew one day my time would come and
I cherished every minute of it. It’s been
real Tennessee. Thanks for everything.”
Griffin’s final game as a Titan was in In-
dianapolis and after that game, he joked
out loud in the locker room about the
possibility of his release, saying he has
been asked about it for
years. Griffin told TitanInsider.com via text
that his release was not
about him, but that his
wishes are that the Titans franchise can
get things turned around.
“Not going to make this about me.
Team before me. Hope this team goes in
the right direction and will forever be in
debt to the Adams family for giving me
a chance. Thanks for the best memories
of my life and and to the fans. They deserve a winning team and this team in
headed in the right direction with a good
coach and GM aboard,” Griffin said in
the text message.
Griffin totaled 25 interceptions during
his nine-year run with the Titans, a number that ranks eighth in franchise history.
“We would like to thank Michael for
all of his efforts and impact on the Titans
during his nine seasons with our franchise,” said Titans general manager Jon
Robinson said in a statement.
“Michael’s reputation around the NFL is
as a very durable player who always
gives his best both on and off the field.
His passion for the game of football, dating back to his college days at Texas, is
also well-known, and we wish him all
the best moving forward.”
Griffin was selected to the Pro Bowl in
2008 and 2010, but in recent years his

play had been up-and-down, and he
often was a scapegoat for fans’ frustrations. The Titans drafted him 19th overall in 2007 and then signed him to a $35
million contract extension in 2012. He
was entering the final year of that extension in 2016, and his release wipes $6.5
million in base salary off the Titans
books for the coming year. “I want to
thank Griff for his time here with the organization,” said Titans coach Mike
Mularkey. “He was a leader who
showed up to work every day in an effort to get better, and I appreciated his
effort both on and off the field for this
team. He touched a lot of people in this
community and in our organization. I
want to wish him the best, and I hope he
will always be remembered as a great
Titan.”
The release of Griffin means the Titans
will be in the market for a new free
safety either through free agency or the
draft. Tennessee signed Da’Norris
Searcy last off-season to play strong
safety and has backups in Daimion
Stafford and Marqueston Huff, though
neither of them are considered to be
bona fide starter material.
There has also been talk that the club
could move Jason McCourty from cornerback to safety, a transition his twin
brother made in New England a few
years ago.
The top safety available in free agency
is Eric Berry, but the Kansas City Chiefs
are expected to do everything they can
to re-sign him.
UPPERMAN HIGH
One title down...
By STEVE MEGARGEE
AP Sports Writer
KNOXVILLE (AP) — Tennessee’s Robert Hubbs III and
Devon Baulkman broke out of their
personal slumps while Auburn remained as cold as ever.
Hubbs scored 20 points and Baulkman added 14 as Tennessee defeated
Auburn 71-45 on
Tuesday night and
handed the Tigers
their sixth consecutive loss.
Baulkman
had
scored a total of 12
points and had shot a combined 5 of
25 over the five games leading up to
this one. Hubbs had totaled 12
points and had shot 4 of 17 from the
floor over his last three contests.
“Tonight I had a lot more energy,”
Hubbs said. “I knew my mind was
right from the get-go, cheering on
my teammates and all that and just
being locked into the game.”
Auburn (9-14, 3-8 SEC) posted its
lowest point total of the season and
shot a season-low 23.7 percent
against a Tennessee (12-12, 5-6)
team that entered the night allowing
a league-high 78.2 points per game
in SEC competition. Auburn’s Bruce
Pearl said he couldn’t remember one
of his teams ever shooting so poorly
during his 21-season head coaching
career.
The Tigers were playing a second
straight game without leading scorer
Kareem Canty, who is indefinitely
suspended for conduct detrimental
to the team. In those two games,
Auburn has averaged 50 points and
shot 24.8 percent from the floor.
“Our roster’s been decimated with
injuries, ineligibilities, suspensions,” Pearl said, “It’s really tough.
You can see how challenged we are.
But we can play better than that. We
can play harder than that, and we
can represent Auburn better than

dunk against Auburn during
the first half at Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville on Tuesday. Tennessee won 71-45.
BAXTER — The running clock was
needed twice Tuesday night as the Upperman girls clinched the District 8-AA regular-season title with a 66-19 win over Smith
County, then the Bees defeated the Owls 69-33 to
set up a first-place showdown on Thursday.
The UHS girls will be the
top overall seed at next
week’s District 8-AA girls
tournament at Tennessee Tech’s Hooper
Eblen Center.
The Lady Bees (26-2, 13-0 8-AA) broke
out the pink jerseys in the first game of the
night in honor of breast cancer awareness,
but that was not the only honor of the
evening. Just before the game got underway,
Gracie Maynord was joined at halfcourt by
her coach, Dana McWilliams, so she could
be acknowledged for hitting 1,000 career
points last Monday at DeKalb County.
“Gracie is a great shooter,” commented
McWilliams. “It’s really a nice honor for her.
It was last week, and it would have been
nice if she could have got it at home. But we
appreciate all that she does for our team. She
has such good teammates around her too.
This group is just a lot of fun. We’re all excited for Gracie, and we realize that she’s got
a special gift as far as shooting the basketball. She’s a special player.”
Maynord scored 14 points, made 4-of-7
from the 3-point line, and stole the ball
twice, but she was second on the team in
terms of scoring to Abby Greenwood.
Greenwood scored 20 points and only
missed one shot all night. She was a perfect
9-of-9 from the field and 2-of-3 from the
free throw line.
The final Lady Bee to hit double-digit scoring was Akira Levy, who scored 10 points
and had a team-high seven assists.
And it was pretty obvious who would win
this bout early on.

Johansson has goal, two assists as Caps beat Predators
By JIM DIAMOND
Associated Press
NASHVILLE (AP) — A return to
Nashville for Washington Capitals coach
Barry Trotz was nice, but winning was
even better.
Marcus Johansson had a goal and two
assists to lead the Capitals over the Predators 5-3 on Tuesday night.
Trotz was the first coach of the Predators and spent 15 years behind the
Nashville bench. In his second season at
the helm in Washington, he earned his
first win over Nashville.
“Just getting a win back in this building, it’s good,” Trotz said. “More importantly, it’s not necessarily the Preds, it’s
just in this building. I’ve got so many
good memories and I’m going to add
this one to it.”
Tom Wilson and Justin Williams each
had a goal and an assist, and Jason
Chimera and Alex Ovechkin also
scored. Braden Holtby made 23 saves
for the Capitals, winners of four straight.
Filip Forsberg scored twice and Roman
Josi had a goal for Nashville. The Predators have lost three of four since the
All-Star break.
Chimera scored the game’s first goal at
12:02 of the opening period.
Predators captain Shea Weber had the
puck inside the Nashville blue line, but
his pass attempt was intercepted by Wilson. He carried the puck into the right
faceoff circle and sent a pass in front to
Chimera, who tipped it by goalie Pekka
Rinne.
“We made a couple of bad mistakes,”
area. There weren’t a lot of them, but the
ones that did happen, we need to do a
better job.”
Washington is 27-1-0 when scoring
first this season.
The Predators carried the majority of
the play in the first, outshooting the Capitals 14-6, but Holtby was sharp
throughout.
He denied Cody Bass’ backhand attempt from in close at 2:11 and then
made back-to-back saves on Weber and
Ryan Johansen on a power play 2 minutes later. Holtby stopped Weber’s slap
shot from the left point, then stuck his
leg out and kicked away Johansen’s rebound attempt at what appeared to be an
open net.
“When you see Weber winding up, you
are usually keying in on your reflexes
pretty big,” Holtby said. “He kind of
knuckled it, kind of flubbed it and it
sunk and hit my pants and gave up a rebound I usually wouldn’t. After that, you
are just kind of in scramble mode and
luckily got a pad on it.”
Wilson made it 2-0 at 4:55 of the second.
Following another Nashville turnover,
Johansson carried the puck on the right
side and sent a cross-ice pass toward
Wilson, who beat Rinne with a onetimer from inside the left circle.

The Lady Bees came out and scored the
first 14 points of the game capped off by
back to back threes from Maynord and
Sarah Eldridge, and the Lady Owls (15-10,
9-4 8-AA) didn’t score their first points until
1:57 to go in the first.
By the end of the first quarter, the score
was 20-5, and the Lady Bees scored 15
more points in the second quarter. The Lady
Owls only scored five more for a halftime
deficit of 35-10.
By 5:10 in the third quarter, the lead was
up to 35 for the Lady Bees, and by the
fourth quarter the running clock had begun.
A big staple for the Lady Bees was their
defense. Upperman stole the ball 12 times
and forced 19 turnovers overall.
“I think defense was a key for us,”
McWilliams commented. “I thought we
were very ready defensively (Tuesday
night). We had a lot of intensity out on the
defensive end.”
“We were really excited for this game. We
knew this game meant a lot for us as far as
giving us a chance to clinch the regular season outright, and we knew Smith (County)
has a good team. We were ready to play.”
The boys game was not much different.
The Bees (22-4, 10-3 8-AA) didn’t score
the first 14 straight points, but they still
outscored the Owls (17-9, 10-3 8-AA) 16-5
in the first quarter and 18-12 in the second
for a 17-point halftime advantage at 34-17.
Ben Guffey scored back to back 3-pointers
to open the second half, and the Bees scored
22 points in the third quarter to the Owls
seven to further cement their win.
The Bees defense was on point just like the
a lot. It’s good to be back and there’s
nothing better than coming back and
being a part of winning a game.”
Rinne finished with 18 saves.
Forsberg halved the Washington lead at
14:42 of the second with a wrist shot
from the left faceoff dot that beat Holtby
high to the far side.
Nashville acquired Forsberg in a 2012
trade-deadline deal with the Capitals in
exchange for longtime Predator Martin
Erat and forward Michael Latta.
Washington regained a two-goal lead
in the third on Williams’ 17th goal when
Evgeny Kuznetsov sent a pass from the
left dot to Williams in the low slot for
the tap-in.
Kuznetsov has assists in three consecutive games.
Johansson scored at 8:03 of the third
and Josi answered at 9:49.
Forsberg drew Nashville within one at
the 12-minute mark when he scored his
second of the night.
“I think we were doing a great job after
their fourth goal,” Forsberg said. “Before that, in the third period, we weren’t
as desperate as we have to be. We were
kind of shooting ourselves in the foot,
with letting two goals in.”
Ovechkin scored an empty-net goal on
the power play with a minute remaining
to seal it.
NOTES: Washington LW Andre Burakovsky had an assist, extending his
point streak to eight games. ...
Kuznetsov’s assist was his 100th NHL
point. ... Forsberg has three goals and
two assists in his last two games against
his former team.
Lady Bees as they stole the ball 18 times
and forced 22 total turnovers by the Owls.
The Bees also shot 83 percent from the free
throw line, 56 percent from inside the arc,
and 37 percent from outside of it.
“I think our intensity has picked up in the
last couple of weeks,” commented Upperman head coach Bobby McWilliams. “We
are playing like I thought we could play,
with levels of intensity that I don’t know if
they realize they can get to. I give a lot of
credit to our seniors for creating that and
making it happen. Leadership has been key,
and every one has followed suit. Our overall
intensity has been tremendous the last couple weeks.”
The Bees had four players break into double-digits scoring.
Austin Shrum led the team with 15
points, four rebounds, and four assists,
while Austyn McWilliams followed
closely with 14 points, three rebounds, and
a team-high five assists. Josh Endicott tallied 13 points with four rebounds and 5of-5 from the free throw line, and lastly,
Guffey added 11 points, four assists, and
five steals.
“Smith (County) has got a real good team,”
McWilliams said. “I thought our kids came
out and played extremely hard (Tuesday
night). Any win you get in this league is a
good one. But to win of this difference in
span was surprising, and it makes me really
proud that these kids could dig in and play
that hard. It was a great team effort for us

Tennessee won easily despite getting a season-low four points from
Kevin Punter Jr., who played just
19 minutes while dealing with foul
trouble. Punter entered the night
averaging 23.2 points per game,
tied for eighth among all Division
I players.
“I’m very confident in the state
of our basketball program,” Pearl
said. “I do believe that we can be
a very competitive program at
Auburn. But that team right now is
not competitive. I’m the one that’s
got to be accountable and responsible for that.”

Auburn: Tyler Harris scored just
two points and missed all 10 of his
field-goal attempts on the court
where his older brother starred.
Orlando Magic forward Tobias
Harris played for Pearl at Tennessee in the 2010-11 season.
Tyler Harris entered the night averaging 14.8 points per game.
Pearl said Harris is dealing with a
back issue that prevented him
from practicing Monday.
Tennessee: Freshman guard
Shembari Phillips made his first
career start and had six points and
six rebounds in 31 minutes.
REVERSAL OF FORTUNE
Auburn beat Tennessee 83-77 last
month by shooting 12 of 26 from
3-point range. In the rematch, the
Tigers were just 5 of 26 on 3pointers. Brown was 4 of 8 from
beyond the arc, but his teammates
were 1 of 18.
“We really wanted to defend the
3-point line,” Tennessee coach
Rick Barnes said. “That was a big
thing for us tonight with them.
They’ve got guys who have lit us
up. We felt they had a couple of
guards that could go get you seven
(or) eight 3’s apiece.”
NEW ROLE FOR HUBBS
Hubbs has started for most of the
season but has been coming off the
bench the last three games. Barnes
was asked whether he believed
Hubbs has benefited from moving
out of the starting lineup.
“I don’t know that, (but) I’ve said
before I think that bench is a great
motivator,” Barnes said. “When
your tail starts talking to your
head, it will help you sometimes.”

Lawsuit alleges Tennessee has ‘hostile sexual environment’
By STEVE MEGARGEE
AP Sports Writer
KNOXVILLE (AP) — A lawsuit filed by a group of
women alleges that the University of Tennessee has violated Title IX regulations and created a “hostile sexual
environment” through a policy of indifference toward
assaults by student-athletes.
The federal suit filed Tuesday in Nashville states Tennessee’s policies made students more vulnerable to sexual assault and says that the school had a “clearly
unreasonable response” after incidents that caused the
women making complaints to endure additional harassment. The suit also states the university interfered with
the disciplinary process to favor male athletes.
There have been several sexual assault complaints
made against Tennessee student-athletes over the last
four years, including former football players A.J. Johnson and Michael Williams. They were indicted on aggravated rape charges in February 2015 and have
separate trial dates this summer.
The suit was filed by David Randolph Smith, a lawyer
representing six unidentified plaintiffs, against the University of Tennessee and the director of the office of
student conduct and community standards. No individual were named as defendants in the complaint.
The suit also states that Tim Rogers, a former vice
chancellor for student life, stepped down in 2013 “in
protest over the violation of Title IX and the UT administration’s and athletic department’s deliberate indifference to the clear and present danger of sexual
assaults by UT athletes.”
Bill Ramsey, a lawyer representing the school, said in
a statement the university “acted lawfully and in good
faith” in the situations outlined in the complaint. Ramsey said the school “has devoted significant time and
energy to provide a safe environment for our students,
to educate and raise awareness about sexual assault and
to encourage students to come forward and report sexual assault.”

Martin Brodeur has his No.
30 jersey retired by Devils
By TOM CANAVAN
AP Sports Writer
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Martin Brodeur tried to
start his thank you speech only to be drowned out
by the roaring crowd.
Finally, he stepped away from the podium and
simply soaked it all in.
The New Jersey Devils retired Brodeur’s No. 30
jersey Tuesday night during a pregame ceremony,
giving his adoring fans at the Prudential Center one
more chance to cheer the winningest goalie in NHL
history.
After serenading Brodeur with chants of “Mar-ty,
Mar-ty, Mar-ty” and “Marty is better,” the sellout
crowd gave him a standing ovation that lasted more
than 2 minutes and grew louder by the second.
Ready to voice his appreciation, Brodeur realized
he would only be muffled by the noisy din inside
the arena. He eventually walked away from the microphone and waved to the crowd, as well as the
players from the Edmonton Oilers and Devils who
sat on their benches during the ceremony.
Finally, when the crowd quieted down at last,
Brodeur thanked his former teammates, coaches —
and of course, the fans.
It was a fitting celebration for a goalie who set
league records for games played, shutouts, playoff
shutouts, number of 30- and 40-win seasons and
most wins in a season.
The Montreal native changed goaltending in the
NHL and turned the Devils from a “Mickey
Mouse” organization, as Wayne Gretzky once
called the team, into a three-time Stanley Cup
champion.
This was Brodeur’s night and he was the show for
everyone in attendance.
It also was closure for the 43-year-old Brodeur,
now an assistant general manager with the St.
Louis Blues. After his speech, he walked with his
family to the crease in front of the net and watched
the banner bearing his No. 30 and his years with
the team (1990-2014) get hoisted to the rafters.
After waving to the crowd with his goaltending
stick raised, he walked to one corner of the arena
and stood next to a statue of him that the team plans
had position around the arena. With a final wave,
he walked off the ice.

Warriors sweep Rockets in consecutive seasons
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Stephen Curry
had 35 points, nine assists and six rebounds,
and the Golden State Warriors put away the
Houston Rockets in the fourth quarter for a
123-110 victory Tuesday night.
Andrew Bogut added 13 points, 11 rebounds, three steals and a season-high six
blocked shots — three in the fourth — during
one of his best games yet.
Andre Iguodala and Harrison Barnes hit
consecutive 3-pointers to start the fourth
quarter to get the defending champions going
after the game was tied at 93 after the third.
Golden State won its 42nd straight regularseason home game and is 24-0 at Oracle
Arena this season. The Warriors are within
two home victories of matching the Chicago
Bulls’ NBA-record home winning streak of
44 games from March 30, 1995 to April 4,
1996.
James Harden overcame a scoreless first
quarter to finish with 37 points, five assists
and five rebounds in Houston’s eighth
straight loss to Golden State.
The Warriors went 3-0 against Houston to
sweep the Rockets in consecutive seasons for
the first time.
SPURS 119, HEAT 101
MIAMI (AP) — LaMarcus Aldridge scored
28 points, Kawhi Leonard added 23 and San
Antonio got seven points on one possession
in the fourth quarter against Miami.
Danny Green added 15 points for the Spurs,
who have won six straight over the Heat
going back to the 2014 NBA Finals.
Dwyane Wade scored 20 points on 9-for-12
shooting for Miami, which goes into the AllStar break on a two-game slide. Chris Bosh
scored 18 and Hassan Whiteside added 14
points and six rebounds before getting ejected
during that pivotal possession in the fourth.
Whiteside was assessed a flagrant-2 foul for
elbowing the Spurs’ Boban Marjanovic as
they tried to get position for a rebound. That
was part of a seven-point trip for the Spurs,
who pushed an 87-80 lead to 94-80 in 16 seconds and weren’t threatened again.
JAZZ 121, MAVERICKS 119, OT
DALLAS (AP) — Gordon Hayward hit a
fadeaway jumper at the buzzer in overtime
and Utah extended its season-best winning
streak to seven games.
Rodney Hood had a tying 3-pointer with 1.5
seconds left in regulation as the Jazz ended a
10-game losing streak in Dallas. Their last
win on the Mavericks’ home court was Jan.
9, 2010.
Hood finished with 29 points, and Hayward
had 20, including 13 in the second half and
overtime.
Chandler Parsons led Dallas with 24 points
but missed an open 3-pointer for the lead
with 24 seconds left in the Mavericks’ second
straight overtime game and NBA-high eighth
of the season.
WIZARDS 111, KNICKS 108
NEW YORK (AP) — John Wall had 28
points and 17 assists, Bradley Beal scored 26,
and Washington beat New York in the
Knicks’ first game under Kurt Rambis.
Wall made four free throws in the final 6.6
seconds and the Wizards held on when
Langston Galloway’s 3-pointer at the buzzer
was just short.
Carmelo Anthony had 33 points and 13 rebounds, but the Knicks lost their sixth
straight in their first game since firing Derek
Fisher on Monday. They have dropped 10 of
11 and started Rambis’ era the same way
Fisher’s ended, by quickly falling in a huge
early hole.
Rookie Kristaps Porzingis scored 20 points,
but just two after his 14-point third quarter.
BUCKS 112, CELTICS 111
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Khris Middleton
made one of two free throws with 0.6 seconds left and Milwaukee defeated Boston.
Middleton drew a foul on Avery Bradley to
get to the line. Boston had tied the game
when Kelly Olynyk made two free throws
with one second remaining.
Milwaukee appeared to have won the game
on Greg Monroe’s last-second hook shot,
giving the Bucks a 111-109 lead. Olynyk
then drew the foul with no time expiring off
the clock.
Monroe, who was removed from the starting lineup, had 29 points and 12 rebounds as

collapses

BOSTON (AP) — North Carolina coach Roy
Williams got dizzy and had to be taken to the
locker room during the second half of the Tar
Heels game at Boston College on Tuesday night.
UNC spokesman Steve Kirschner says Williams
got dizzy but is doing OK. The incident occurred
during the first media timeout of the second half.
Kirschner gave another update about 20 minutes
later and said that Williams got up from his chair
too fast, triggering a bout of vertigo. He is currently receiving medication and is expected to remain in the locker room for the remainder of the
game.
Assistant coach Steve Robinson assumed coaching duties on the sideline.
The 65-year-old Williams had previous bouts
with vertigo in the past and felt dizzy when standing up quickly.
The Tar Heels are concluding a three-game road
trip. Their last home game was Jan. 30, against
Boston College.

from rare loss
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Courtney Williams scored
18 points, Alisia Jenkins grabbed 20 rebounds —
one short of her career best — and No. 22 South
Florida rebounded after a rare conference loss to
beat Tulane 77-65 Tuesday night.
Three of South Florida’s five made field goals to
start the second quarter were from 3-point range,
capped by Kitija Laksa’s 3 for a 34-22 lead.
Williams made the Bulls’ seventh 3-pointer of
the first half to extend their lead to 40-30 at the
break. Laksa led the way with 11 points while
Jenkins grabbed 12 boards.
Laksa finished with 14 points for South Florida
(17-6, 10-3 American), which improved to 13-1
at home.
KANSAS STATE 87,
No. 21 OKLAHOMA 71
MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Kindred Wesemann made 6 of 8 from 3-point range, 8 of 10 free
throws and finished with 26 points and five assists
to help the Kansas State women beat Oklahoma.
Breanna Lewis had 15 points, seven rebounds,
two steals and two blocked shots, while Bri Craig
scored a season-high 12 for Kansas State.
Derica Wyatt’s layup with 2:14 left in the third
pulled the Sooners within three, 56-53, but Wesemann answered with a 3-pointer and Oklahoma
went eight minutes, 55 seconds without a field
goal while Kansas State pushed its lead to 23 with
3:31 to play.
Gioya Carter led Oklahoma with 19 points.
ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) — Josh Hart scored 18
points and No. 1 Villanova celebrated its first
game as the nation’s top team with an 86-59 victory over DePaul on Tuesday night.
Kris Jenkins made three 3-pointers and finished with 13 points as the Wildcats (21-3, 111) rolled to their 13th win in their last 14 games.
They moved two games clear of fifth-ranked
Xavier for the Big East lead after the Musketeers lost 70-56 at Creighton.
Villanova turned 19 DePaul turnovers into 19
points in its debut in the top spot of The Associated Press’ poll. The Wildcats had climbed to
No. 2 on six occasions before Oklahoma and
North Carolina lost last weekend, clearing the
way for them to ascend to No. 1.
Eli Cain scored 15 points for DePaul (8-16, 210), which shot 41 percent from the field in its
fourth loss in five games.
No. 2 MARYLAND 93, BOWIE ST. 62
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Maryland got
16 points from Rasheed Sulaimon in its schoolrecord 27th consecutive home victory.
Taking a break from their rigorous Big Ten
schedule, the Terrapins (22-3) enjoyed a stressfree encounter with Bowie State, a Division II
school in Maryland.
Backup center Michal Cekovsky, who usually
sees little playing time behind Diamond Stone
and Damonte Dodd, scored 11 of his 14 points
in the first half to help the Terrapins take a 4729 lead. His previous career high was 10.
Maryland’s home winning streak eclipses a 26game run at Cole Field House from Feb. 10,
1979, to Jan. 10, 1981. The Terrapins are 14-0 at
home this season and haven’t lost on their own
court since falling to Virginia on Dec. 3, 2014.
Miles Jackson scored 13 points for the Bulldogs (13-10), a member of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
CREIGHTON 70, No. 5 XAVIER 56
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Maurice Watson
scored a career-high 32 points and Creighton
rode a fast start to the upset.
The Bluejays (16-9, 7-5 Big East) used an early
16-0 run to take a 17-point lead 9 minutes into
the game and then held off the Musketeers after
they pulled within five with 6 minutes left.
Watson scored 22 points in the second half and
finished off the Musketeers with a bank-in high
off the glass, a layup and then a steal and layup
to make it 66-53 with 1:54 to play.
Xavier (21-3, 9-3) got 17 points from Jalen
Reynolds and 14 from James Farr. The Musketeers’ five-game winning streak ended as they
shot a season-worst 30 percent from the field,
including 1 of 21 from 3-point range.
No. 6 KANSAS 75,
No. 10 WEST VIRGINIA 65
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Perry Ellis had 21
points and Landen Lucas pulled down a careerhigh 16 rebounds as Kansas forged a three-way
tie atop the Big 12.
Frank Mason III added 14 points for the Jayhawks (20-4, 8-3), who handled the Mountaineers’ pressure well in avenging a loss lost
month in Morgantown.
Now, they are tied with the Mountaineers (195, 8-3) and No. 3 Oklahoma (20-3, 8-3) as they
pursue their 12th consecutive championship. All
three teams have seven games remaining.
Devin Williams had 14 points and nine rebounds, and Jaysean Paige also had 14 points
for the Mountaineers — though their leading
scorer was just 5 of 16 from the field.
No. 7 VIRGINIA 67, VIRGINIA TECH 49
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Anthony
Gill scored 16 points and Virginia turned the tables on its state rival Virginia Tech for its seventh straight win.
Isaiah Wilkins added a career-best 14 points
and Malcolm Brogdon had 12 for the Cavaliers
(20-4, 9-3 Atlantic Coast Conference). Virginia
avenged a 70-68 loss to the Hokies in Blacksburg on Jan. 4 in what rates as their worst per-
formance of the season, and extended their winning streak at John Paul Jones Arena to 17
games.
Freshman Justin Robinson scored 16 points
and classmate Chris Clarke had 11 in his first
action for the Hokies (13-12, 5-7) since breaking
his right foot in late December. Virginia Tech’s
top two scorers, Zach LeDay (16.0 ppg) and
Seth Allen (14.5), were limited to seven and six
points, respectively, in part because of foul trouble.
No. 18 PURDUE 82,
No. 8 MICHIGAN ST. 81, OT
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — Raphael
Davis made one of two free throws with 4.6 seconds left in overtime to help Purdue pull off the
upset.
The Boilermakers (20-5, 8-4 Big Ten) snapped
a seven-game losing streak in the series despite
blowing an 18-point second-half lead, trailing
by four late in regulation and allowing the Spartans to tie it at 81 with 11.5 seconds left.
Davis broke the tie with the decisive free
throw, giving him 24 points. A.J. Hammons
wrestled the second shot away from Michigan
State (20-5, 7-5) to seal it.
Hammons had 19 points, 13 rebounds and
eight blocks.
Denzel Valentine led the Spartans with 27
points, eight rebounds and 10 assists.
No. 9 NORTH CAROLINA 68,
BOSTON COLLEGE 65
BOSTON (AP) — Playing most of the second
half without coach Roy Williams, who left the
bench after complaining of vertigo, North Carolina rallied for the win thanks to 20 points from
Justin Jackson.
The Eagles, who have not won an Atlantic
Coast Conference game this season, led the
whole way until Theo Pinson hit two free throws
with under 4 minutes remaining. After BC retook the lead, Marcus Paige hit a 3-pointer to
make it 62-60.
The Tar Heels (20-4, 9-2) snapped a two-game
losing streak.
Dennis Clifford had 14 points and 13 rebounds
for BC (7-17, 0-11).
BC’s Matt Milon hit a 3-pointer with 5.6 seconds left to make it a one-point game. But after
Paige made two free throws, Eli Carter’s 3-point
attempt from halfcourt at the buzzer bounced
harmlessly off the backboard.
Carter scored 26 points.
Carolina spokesman Steve Kirschner said
Williams, 65, who has suffered from vertigo in
the past, felt dizzy and returned to the locker
room but was OK. Assistant Steve Robinson
took over the coaching, and the Tar Heels eventually came around after falling behind by nine
points in the first half.
No. 12 MIAMI 65, PITTSBURGH 63
CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Guard Angel
Rodriguez scored on an offensive rebound with
1.4 seconds left for Miami.
With the game tied, the Hurricanes missed two
shots in the final 6 seconds and Pitt’s Ryan
Luther batted the ball before Rodriguez charged
into the lane and slapped it into the basket with
his left hand.
That was the only offensive rebound of the
game for the 5-foot-11 Rodriguez, who had 17
points and eight assists.
The Hurricanes (19-4, 8-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) trailed by eight points in the first half
but won for the sixth time in the past seven
games. Pittsburgh (17-6, 6-5) has lost two
straight for the first time this season.
Luther had 12 points and seven rebounds for
the Panthers, while Michael Young scored 12
points.
No. 19 DAYTON 76, DUQUESNE 74
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Scoochie Smith hit a
3-pointer that put Dayton ahead to stay as the
Flyers overcame a late 12-point deficit.
The Flyers (20-3, 10-1 Atlantic 10) got their
eighth straight win by going on a closing 19-5
run. Smith’s 3-pointer from the top of the arc put

No. 22 KENTUCKY 82, GEORGIA 48
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Jamal Murray
scored 24 points and Tyler Ulis added 14 as
Kentucky held Georgia to a season-low 22 percent shooting.
Picking up where he left off after a career-best
35 points on Saturday against Florida, Murray
made 8 of 14 from the field including 6 of 10
from 3-point range. His accuracy helped spur
the Wildcats (18-6, 8-3 Southeastern Conference) to 52 percent shooting against a team that
entered as the nation’s No. 6 team and SEC
leader in field goal defense.
Georgia (13-9, 6-5) just couldn’t make shots as
its two-game winning streak ended. The Bulldogs closed the first half on a 0-for-17 drought
and weren’t much better in the second half as
they trailed by 37 points in the final minutes.
Yante Maten’s 16 points led the Bulldogs.
No. 25 WICHITA ST. 74, DRAKE 48
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ron Baker and
Shaq Morris had 11 points each and Wichita
State won for the 13th time in 14 games.
Thirteen players scored for the Shockers (185, 12-1 Missouri Valley Conference), who
moved within two victories of clinching at least
a share of its third straight league title.
Wichita State had little trouble with the Valley’s worst team, rattling off a 27-5 run to close
the first half in beating the Bulldogs for the
ninth straight time.
Reed Timmer scored 20 points for Drake (619, 1-12), which lost for the 15th time in 17
games.
Wichita State was coming off just its second
Valley loss in three seasons, as it fell at Illinois
State 58-53.
