Analysis: Debates might aid voters, but candidates pass

In presidential campaigns, voters
consistently say that debates are much
more helpful than candidate advertisements
in deciding whom to support
By JEFF AMY
The Associated Press
JACKSON — If a debate in
Mississippi’s U.S. Senate race
to fill out the unexpired term of
the retired Thad Cochran had
gone off as planned last Thurs-
day at Millsaps College in Jack-
son, you might be reading more
about the event in this space.
But the debate fell apart af-
ter appointed Republican Sen.
Cindy Hyde-Smith said she
wouldn’t be there. Then top
Democratic challenger and for-
mer U.S. Agriculture Secretary
Mike Espy said he wasn’t com-
ing if Hyde-Smith wasn’t there.
Pretty soon, Mississippi Public
Broadcasting dropped plans
to broadcast the event if only
Republican state Sen. Chris
McDaniel and Democratic can-
didate Tobey Bernard Bartee
were coming.
Meanwhile, in the state’s oth-
er U.S. Senate race, Democratic
challenger and state Rep. Da-
vid Baria is holding town halls
across the state, challenging in-
cumbent U.S. Sen. Roger Wick-
er to come face him. Wicker is
resolutely ignoring Baria.
So, unless the candidates
bump into each other at the
Piggly Wiggly in Carthage, it
doesn’t look there are going to
be any debates in either of Mis-
sissippi’s two U.S. Senate races.
Does it matter?
Maybe.
In presidential campaigns,
voters consistently say that de-
bates are much more helpful
than candidate advertisements
in deciding whom to support.
The Pew Research Center,
which has surveyed voters af-
ter every presidential campaign
since 1988, found after the 2016
campaign that 63 percent of
voters said presidential debates
were very or somewhat helpful
in deciding which candidate to
vote for. That’s about the same
as how voters had felt in previ-
ous presidential elections.
Certainly, a debate could
have a chance of forcing Hyde-
Smith to talk about something
else besides her unwavering
devotion to President Donald
Trump. That’s important be-
cause, considering the historic
longevity of Mississippi sena-
tors, if Hyde-Smith holds onto
the seat to which Gov. Phil Bry-
ant appointed her, she’s likely
to remain a senator long after
Trump has retired.
While Hyde-Smith has an is-
sues section on her website, her
platform on a dozen complicat-
ed national issues amounts to
three or four sentences apiece.
Espy also has a list of issues
on his website with only a little
more detail, although he has
fleshed out some of his posi-
tions. McDaniel has issued a
Contract with Mississippi that
has detailed positions, but vot-
ers might not know, for exam-
ple, that he favors a radical over-
haul of the federal judiciary that
could sharply reduce its powers.
So maybe voters could learn
something from a debate.
On the other hand, there’s a
fair amount of political science
research suggesting debates
don’t have much long-term ef-
fect on a candidate’s standing
with voters. Research also sug-
gests voters may be more influ-
enced by the reaction of their
friends and mass media than
by what’s actually said in the
debate.
In the derby to replace Co-
chran, all four candidates took
the stump at the Neshoba Coun-
ty Fair earlier this summer.
Wicker did speak at Neshoba,
but hasn’t faced off with any
opponents in debates since win-
ning the seat in a 2008 special
election against Democrat and
former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove.
Cochran went decades without
debating. He won election to the
Senate in 1978 without meet-
ing Democrat Maurice Dantin
and independent Charles Evers
face-to-face. Cochran and for-
mer Democratic Gov. William
Winter did face off in 1984. But
that was the last time Cochran
ever took the stage with an elec-
toral challenger.
There might be one more
chance for Mississippi voters
to see all the senatorial candi-
dates. The Mississippi Econom-
ic Council touts that all six are
on the schedule for its pre-elec-
tion Hobnob event, set for Nov.
1. But don’t get your hopes up. It
won’t be a debate.

Scheme sold bogus rights to cut
timber to more than 250 investors

By JEFF AMY
The Associated Press
JACKSON — A lawyer
trying to recover money in
a collapsed Ponzi scheme
is suing three people who
sold the investments,
demanding they return
more than $16 million in
sales commissions.
U.S. District Judge
Carlton Reeves appointed
Allyson Mills to collect
assets to repay investors
in the $100-million-plus
Madison Timber Ponzi
scheme. The scheme sold
bogus rights to cut timber,
promising returns of 11
percent or more, far above
prevailing interest rates,
to more than 250 investors
in at least 14 states. Mills
sued Michael D. Billings,
Terry Wayne Kelly Jr.,
William B. McHenry Jr.

Harper
Continued from Page 1A
Harper, a Republican,
has represented Missis-
sippi’s Third Congressio-
nal District for five terms
since 2009. He is not seek-
ing re-election to his seat
in the U.S. House of Rep-
resentatives at the end of
this term and announced
last fall that he would do-
nate his congressional pa-
pers to MSU.
Harper signed the pa-
pers over to the university
during Friday’s ceremo-
ny. They will be added to
the MSU Libraries’ Con-
gressional and Political
Research Center, which
now houses the congres-
sional papers of 10 for-
mer U.S. Congressmen,
including former Third
Congressional District
reps G.V. “Sonny” Mont-
gomery and Charles W.
“Chip” Pickering.
“If somebody wants to
come in and study what’s
happened in the Third
Congressional District,
they have my 10 years,
Pickering’s 12 and Son-
ny’s 30,” he said. “You’ve
got 52 years of work out of
the same office, basical-
ly, that you can see what
the changes have been in
Mississippi. And not just
changes within the mem-
bers, but we’re the first
donated papers that are
digital.”
Harper’s papers, he
said, will include his Face-
book and Twitter posts.
While the bulk of the ma-
terial is digital, he said
it also includes several
dozen bound volumes of
newspaper clippings and
every handwritten letter
he received from con-
stituents while in office.
The collection will also
include legislation.
“It gives a good look
at our district and what’s
happened in our state,” he
said.
MSU President Mark
Keenum said the papers
will provide invaluable in-
sight into the decade that
he served in the House of
Representatives.
“Congressman Harp-
er’s papers will give us a
unique perspective and
view of a critical time in
our nation’s history,” Kee-
num said.
Harper also said he
hoped the papers would
act as a teaching tool for
the future.
“We’re talking about
a form of education for
researchers, for students
and those who have an in-
terest in politics,” Harper
said. “And also, I’m the
10th federal elected offi-
cial to donate papers to
Mississippi State Univer-
sity. That’s a pretty high
number for a university
to have, and I suspect that
will continue to grow.”
McCarthy, who called
Harper an “unbelievable
statesman,” described his
character in Washington
D.C. as that of a leader, an
advocate for the vulner-
able and a Christian gen-
tleman. McCarthy said
Harper even drew praise
from Democrats for his
statesmanship.
“Those papers contain
the full story of Congress-
man Harper’s decade of
public service,” McCar-
thy said. “They are the
truest record of his lead-
ership, his advocacy and
his character. Just like the
bills that Congressman
Harper helped to pass,
these are a legacy that
will extend beyond his life
for many years to come. It
is my hope that they will
inspire generations of
public service who are as
devoted to their country
and to their fellow man as
Gregg Harper is.”

Also in the vehicle was 22-year-old Jus-

The vehicle, a 2012 black Ford Mus-

south on Highway 69 when, just north
of Concord Road, it veered off the road
and into the woods, hitting multiple trees
before coming to a stop. Both occupants
were ejected from the vehicle, according
to a MHP press release.

Trump’s dangerous
‘truthful hyperbole’
“I built what I built myself.”
This boast has long been at the core of the mythology of Donald
Trump, Self-Made Billionaire. As the oft-told story goes, young Mr.
Trump accepted a modest $1 million loan from his father, Fred, a
moderately successful real estate developer from Queens, and —
through smarts, hard work and sheer force of will — parlayed that
loan into a multibillion-dollar global empire.
It’s a classic American tale of ambition and self-determination.
Not Horatio Alger, exactly, but appealing, and impressive, nonethe-
less.
Except that, like so much of what Mr. Trump has been selling the
American public in recent years, this origin story was a sham — a
version of reality so elaborately embellished that it qualifies as fan
fiction more than biography. Also, as we’ve come to expect from
Mr. Trump, the creation of this myth involved a big dose of ethically
sketchy, possibly even illegal activity.
As an in-depth investigation by The Times has revealed, Mr.
Trump is only self-made if you don’t count the massive financial re-
wards he received from his father’s business beginning as a toddler.
(By age 3, little Donald was reportedly pulling in an annual income
of what today would be $200,000 a year.) These benefits included not
only the usual perks of hailing from a rich, well-connected family
— the connections, the access to credit, the built-in safety net. For
the Trumps, it also involved direct cash gifts and tens of millions in
“loans” that never charged interest or had to be repaid. Fred Trump
even purchased several properties and business ventures, putting
ownership either fully or partly in the names of his children, who
reaped the profits.
As Donald Trump emerged as the favorite son, Fred made special
deals and arrangements to increase Donald’s fortunes in particular.
The Times found that, before Donald had turned 30, he had received
close to $9 million from his father. Over the longer haul, he received
upward of what, in today’s dollars, would be $413 million.
Along the way, it seems that certain liberties were taken with tax
laws. The Times found that concocting elaborate schemes to avoid
paying taxes on their father’s estate, including greatly understat-
ing the value of the family business, became an important pastime
for Fred’s children, with Donald taking an active role in the effort.
According to tax experts, the activities in question show a pattern of
deception, a deliberate muddying of the financial waters. Asked for
comment on The Times’s findings, a lawyer for the president provid-
ed a written statement denying any wrongdoing and asserting that,
in fact, Mr. Trump had little to do with the dizzying transactions
involving his family’s wealth.
Everyone can understand the impulse to polish one’s background
in order to make a good impression. For Mr. Trump, whose entire
life has been about branding and selling a certain type of gaudy
glamour, this image-polishing has been all the more vital to his
success. And he has pursued it with a shameless, at times giddy,
abandon.
...
With this glimpse into the inner workings of the Trump fami-
ly finances, some of the grimier, ethically suspect aspects of Mr.
Trump’s mythmaking begin to emerge — and with them, many
questions about all that we still do not know about the man and his
business empire. Seeing as how that empire and his role in build-
ing it are so central to who Mr. Trump claims to be — the defining
feature of his heroic narrative — the American public has a right to
some answers. For starters, now would be an excellent time for Mr.
Trump to hand over those tax returns on which he has thus far kept
a death grip.
In his 1987 memoir “The Art of the Deal,” Mr. Trump famously
offered his take on the origins of his success: “I play to people’s
fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can
still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole
never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest
and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbo-
le. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration — and a very effective form
of promotion.”
But increasingly, Mr. Trump’s willingness to bend the truth —
and the rules — in the service of his myth looks less like innocent
exaggeration than malicious deception, with a dollop of corruption
tossed in for good measure. It’s not the golden, glittering success
story he has been peddling. It’s shaping up to be something far
darker.

No Columbus Day in Columbus: Ohio 20 dead in New York

limousine crash
city to honor veterans instead The Associated Press

SCHOHARIE, N.Y. — A limousine carrying

Decision to stop observing the holiday was not
triggered by the national movement to abolish
Columbus Day in favor of Indigenous Peoples Day
By JULIE CARR SMYTH
The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — The larg-
est city named for Christopher Co-
lumbus has called off its observance
of the divisive holiday that honors
the explorer, making a savvy move
to tie the switch to a politically safe
demographic: veterans.
Ohio’s capital city, population
860,000, will be open for business
Monday after observing Columbus
Day probably “for as long as it had
been in existence,” said Robin Da-
vis, a spokeswoman for Democratic
Mayor Andrew Ginther. City offices
will close instead on Veterans Day,
which falls on Nov. 12 this year.
Native Americans and allied
groups have long used Columbus
Day to elevate issues of concern to
them. That includes a peaceful pro-
test of prayers, speeches and tradi-
tional singing in 2016 at Columbus
City Hall — underneath the statue
of the explorer that sits out front —
to protest the Dakota Access Pipe-
line and to urge Ohio to support
more renewable energy.
The decision to stop observing
the holiday was not triggered by
the national movement to abolish
Columbus Day in favor of Indige-
nous Peoples Day as a way of rec-
ognizing victims of colonialism,
Davis said. Columbus Day marks
the Italian explorer’s arrival in the
Americas on Oct. 12, 1492.
“We have a number of veterans
who work for the city, and there are
so many here in Columbus,” Davis
said. “We thought it was important
to honor them with that day off.”
And, she said, the city doesn’t have
the budget to give its 8,500 employ-
ees both days off, she said.
Columbus made its announce-
ment Thursday in a two-paragraph
news release focused on the impact
on trash pickup and parking en-
forcement schedules. In that way,
it avoided much of the consterna-
tion that has taken place elsewhere
around the holiday.
An attempt in Akron to rename
the holiday grew ugly last year, di-

cil along racial lines. Five black

Mormons to spend less time

at church on Sundays, leaders say
‘The senior leaders of the church have been aware for
many years that for some of our precious members, a
three-hour Sunday schedule at church can be difficult’
By BRADY McCOMBS
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY —
Mormons will start spend-
ing less time at church
each Sunday — two hours
instead of three — after a
change announced Satur-
day aimed at making wor-
ship more manageable
for members around the
globe.
The switch, which
takes effect in January, is
a significant one for Mor-
mons, who since 1980
have been expected to at-
tend all three hours each
Sunday to be considered
active members of the
faith.
The news triggered
widespread applause
from members, with
some posting celebratory
memes on social media. It
came during The Church
of Jesus Christ of Lat-
ter-day Saints’ twice-year-
ly conference, where a
leader also reaffirmed the
faith’s opposition to gay
marriage and its belief
that gender is God-given
and eternal.

of the church have been

that for some of our pre-
cious members, a three-

The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Fred-
die Freeman put the At-
lanta Braves ahead, then
watched from first base as
they almost give away the
lead — and possibly their
whole season.
“My heart’s still pound-
ing,” he said, moments
after the last out. “That’s
how we’ve been all year.”
Reliever Arodys Viz-
caino escaped his own jam
in a nervy ninth inning
and the Braves stopped
the Los Angeles Dodgers
6-5 Sunday night, avoiding
a sweep and cutting their
deficit in the National
League Division Series to
2-1.
“I like our chances.
We’ve got a uniform on,
so we know we’ve got a
chance,” Freeman said.
Rookie Ronald Acuna
Jr. hit a grand slam that
helped the Braves build a
5-0 lead. After the Dodg-
ers rallied to tie it, Free-
man homered in the sixth.
In the ninth, the Dodg-
ers got runners on first
and second with no outs
after a single and a walk.
Vizcaino came back from
a 3-0 count to strike out
slugger Max Muncy, and
followed up by fanning
Manny Machado on a wild
pitch that moved the run-
ners to second and third.

DEFENSE DELIVERS AGAINST AUBURN
Bulldogs limit Tigers’ success on third down to snap two-game losing streak in league
By Bret t Hudson

STARKVILLE — Every
number suggested the Mis-
sissippi State football team’s
defense wasn’t the problem in
a 0-2 Southeastern Conference
start.
Defensive coordinator Bob
Shoop wasn’t satisfied. He
challenged his players by ask-
ing them, “When is good not
good enough? When better is
required.”
MSU’s defense responded
Saturday with a dominating
effort in a 23-9 victory against
Around the Southeastern Conference
n HIGH-SCORING REBELS:
Ole Miss came within 7 yards of
the SEC record with its national
season-high 826 yards of total
offense against Louisiana-Mon-
roe. It was the biggest output
nationally since Oklahoma and
Texas Tech each amassed 854
yards against each other in Octo-
ber 2016, and in the SEC since
Paul “Bear” Bryant’s Alabama
Crimson Tide piled up 833 yards
against Virginia Tech in 1973.
then-No. 8 Auburn at Davis
Wade Stadium.
The victory helped MSU
(4-2, 1-2 SEC) climb back into
the national rankings (No. 24
in The Associated Press poll)
and dropped Auburn (4-2, 1-2)
to No. 21.
MSU held Auburn to 90
rushing yards to give coach Joe
Moorhead his first league win.
The Bulldogs accomplished
the milestone by delivering in
big moments and limiting the
Tigers’ effectiveness on trick
plays.
MSU did some of its best
work on defense on third down,
n sec packs rankings: The
SEC placed a season-high eight
teams in The Associated Press
Top 25 poll. It includes the only
three ranked teams that have
lost twice.
No. 21 Auburn has been slog-
ging along offensively all season
and dropped to 4-2 after losing
at Mississippi State on Saturday
night.
The Bulldogs snapped a two-
game losing streak against the
Chris McDill/Special to The Dispatch
limiting Auburn to three con-
versions in 14 attempts.
Fortune also was on MSU’s
side, particularly on a third
down when the Tigers fumbled
a snap and on an overthrow by
quarterback Jarrett Stidham.
But MSU created good vibra-
tions for itself plenty of times.
Defensive back Jaquarius
Landrews did his part on the
first third down Auburn faced
by covering his receiver long
enough to force Stidham to
scramble. Stidham was forced
out of bounds on his run.

Tigers and landed at No. 24 in
the rankings.
Texas A&M (4-2) re-entered
the rankings after a 20-14 victory
in overtime at home against
previously unbeaten Kentucky in
another grinder of a game. The
Wildcats slipped five spots to No.
18.
No. 14 Florida jumped eights
spots for beating LSU, which
slipped from No. 5 to No. 13.
— By The Associated Press
Mississippi State wom-
en’s soccer team had its
highest-scoring game in
Southeastern Conference
play Sunday in a 5-2 victo-
ry against Alabama at the
MSU Soccer Field.
Junior Hailey Zerbel
became
the first Roundup
Bulldog
to record
three assists in a SEC
game.
Four MSU players
scored in the match, and
Zakirah McGillivary’s tal-
ly stood as the game-win-
ner, giving her sole posses-
sion of the MSU freshman
record for game-winners.
It also tied junior MaKayla
Waldner’s single-season
record (five) set last year.
“It felt so good to score
goals,” MSU coach Tom
Anagnost said. “The kids
did really good job. I’m
very pleased with the per-
formance by everybody. It
was a great response from
last game.”
The five-goal output
snapped a three-game
shutout streak for MSU
(9-3-1, 2-3-1 SEC). Fresh-
man Niah Johnson got
the scoring started in the
third minute. Zerbel used
her flip throw to get the
ball into the box, where
McKee headed the ball on
frame. An Alabama play-
er stepped in the way on
the goal line, but Johnson
found the rebound just
inside the left post and
tapped it home.
In the 25th minute, a
similar picture unfolded.
Zerbel’s throw again came
to McKee, who headed
the ball across the box to

What We Learned
What We Learned from Week Eight ...
n 1. STARKVILLE RETURNS: Fresh off its first
loss of the season at Northwest Rankin, Starkville
announced its return to the win column with a 79-0
home victor y against Greenville. The Yellow Jackets
made a statement while scoring 70 or more points
for the second time this season. This was the largest
margin of victor y in program histor y. While Friday
night was fun, it won’t help Starkville any when this
week’s huge region showdown with Madison Central
takes place in Madison.
n 2. SHOWDOWN NOW HERE: Starkville Academy (8-
0) and Heritage Academy (6-2) passed the final hurdles
to set up this week’s dream matchup in Starkville.
Starkville Academy beat Canton Academy, 35-10 at
home, while Heritage Academy defended its home turf
with a 35-7 rout of Winston Academy. Each team is
2-0 in Mississippi Association of Independent Schools
(MAIS) Class AAA, District 2. The winner could earn
home-field advantage all the way through the Class
AAA playoffs. Let’s just say it’s huge. Then again, it’s
Starkville versus Heritage, so it is supposed to be.
n 3. NOXUBEE COUNTY STREAK ENDS: One of the
most impressive streaks in the area ended Friday
night when Noxubee County saw its 30-game region Chris McDill/Special to The Dispatch

a 6-under 30 on the back nine propelled senior Beau Briggs into a
share of the individual lead on day one of the Intercollegiate at The
Grove.
As a team, Ole Miss is second after an opening round 284 (-4),
one shot back of Kennesaw State.
With his 67 (-5) and competing as an individual, Briggs is tied
atop the leaderboard alongside Kyle Flexsenhar of South Florida.
Four Rebels sit in the top 10 after round one on a day that saw
the defending champion of the event struggle. Two-time medalist
Braden Thornberry fired a 76 (+4). However, a rare off day by the
world’s No. 1 amateur didn’t affect the squad. Sophomore Cecil We-
generled the lineup with a 69 (-3), while redshirt-freshman Charlie
Miller added a 70 (-2). Freshman Jackson Suber balanced three
birdies with three bogeys for an even par 72. Fresh off a top-five
finish at Erin Hills, senior Josh Seiple carded a 73 (+1).
“It was a good start today,” Ole Miss coach Chris Malloy said.
“I was really happy to see our guys step up on the one day that
Braden struggled. That’s what makes championship teams, and I
was certainly happy to see that today.”
Alabama
Volleyball team sweeps Auburn
AUBURN, Ala. — Sophomore Doris Carter had 15 kills Sunday
to lead the Alabama volleyball team to a 3-0 victory against Auburn
in a Southeastern Conference match. Set scores were 25-18,
25-20, 25-19.
The win is Alabama’s (14-5, 2-4 SEC) first road victory over
Auburn (8-8, 1-5 SEC) since 2014, and its first sweep over the
Tigers since 2015.
Senior Cidavia Hall and junior Hayley McSparin combined to
stuff seven blocks up the middle while committing just two errors on
18 swings (12 kills). Sophomore Meghan Neelon paced the offense
with 21 assists, adding a team-leading three service aces. Senior
Quincey Gary posted 15 digs, increasing her career total to 1,249
and putting her 15 away from fourth place on Alabama’s career
digs list.
Alabama will play host to Alabama State at 7 p.m. Wednesday
in Foster Auditorium.

No. 16 seed Zhou cruised to a 7-6 (1), 6-1, victory against
Conner McMann. He will play Michael Shabaz on Monday for a spot
in the main draw of the tournament.
Nesterov defeated Aleksandar Kovacevic 6-4, 7-6 (0). He will

n Men’s golf team will play host to Jerry Pate National
Intercollegiate: At Vestavia Hills, Alabama, the No. 3 men’s golf
team will look to continue its positive start to the season Monday at
the Jerry Pate National Intercollegiate at the par-70, 7,204 yard Old
Overton Club.
The tournament will mark the 33rd year of the Jerry Pate Na-
tional Intercollegiate. The event will feature 36 holes (two rounds) of
play starting at 7:30 a.m. Monday, followed by a third and final round
scheduled to tee off at 8 a.m. Tuesday.
This week’s event will be the Tide’s third tournament of the
fall season, collecting an overall record of 22-5 in its previous two
events. After finishing third in the season opener at the Carpet
Capital Collegiate, Alabama recorded a fourth-place finish at the
Olympia Field/Fighting Illini Invitational.
The past two tournaments Alabama has played this fall featured
a total of 29 teams, with 21 opponents ranked or receiving votes to
be ranked in the latest top-25 poll. Alabama maintains a record of
13-5-0 so far this season against top-25 competition, with all five
losses coming to top-10 ranked teams in the most recent poll.
This year’s Jerry Pate holds a solid field that features four
squads in the 12-team field that are ranked among this week’s
Bushnell Golfweek Division I Coaches Poll. In addition to the third-
ranked Crimson Tide, other ranked teams competing in the event
include No. 14 Auburn, No. 18 UNLV and No. 19 Arkansas, along
with Air Force, UAB, Army, BYU, Charlotte, Minnesota, Mississippi
State, and Samford.
The Tide’s starting lineup will include senior Davis Riley, who
will be playing in the top slot. Along with Riley will be sophomores
Davis Shore, Wilson Furr and Ben Fuller, while freshman Prescott
Butler will complete the starting five.
Admission is free for the general public.
n Softball team loses to Auburn-Montgomery in fall open-
er: At Tuscaloosa, Alabama, a late comeback by Alabama fell short
in a 5-4 loss to Auburn-Montgomery on Sunday in its fall opener at
Rhoads Stadium.
The teams traded the lead back and forth throughout the 10
innings, with Alabama heading to the bottom of the 10th trailing 5-4.
The Tide loaded the bases with two away but ultimately could not
push a runner across.
Freshman Montana Fouts saw the most time in the circle,
throwing 3 2/3 hitless innings with nine strikeouts. Sophomore Krys-
tal Goodman started the game, exiting after three innings before
junior Sarah Cornell pitched 3 1/3 relief innings behind her.
Alabama’s first runs came in the bottom of the first inning on a
two-run home run from junior Bailey Hemphill, who was 2-for-2. With
two on base in the third inning, a single up the middle from senior Merris
Schroder accounted for the Tide’s third run. A sixth-inning double from
sophomore KB Sides tallied the fourth and final run.
Alabama will play host to West Alabama at 6:30 p.m. Friday at
Rhoads Stadium.
NBA
Murray’s knee injury another Spurs concern as
season nears
The San Antonio Spurs have more injury concerns with a little
more than a week remaining until the regular season.
Starting point guard Dejounte Murray’s knee buckled and he
crashed to the court Sunday in a preseason loss to the Houston Rock-
ets. He will undergo an MRI exam on Monday.
Murray was driving to the basket against Rockets guard James
Harden on a fast break when his knee gave. The third-year player
remained on the court for several minutes writhing in pain. Spurs
officials brought out a wheelchair to take him off the court, but Murray
refused, rising to his feet amid a raucous cheer from the San Antonio
fans. Murray tested his knee in front of the Spurs’ bench before heading
to the locker room with team officials.
It was the second injury in the last two games for the Spurs, who
lost rookie Lonnie Walker IV to torn cartilage in his right knee and will
miss at least six weeks.
Coach Gregg Popovich didn’t have an update on Murray, who took
over the starting point guard job from Tony Parker last season.
On the other side, the Rockets are getting healthier. P.J. Tucker
started at forward after missing the first two games with a sore back and
had 19 points and seven rebounds. That moved Carmelo Anthony to a
reserve role, and he responded with 12 points and six boards.
— From Special Reports
State today,” Alabama coach
Wes Hart said. “We knew they
were athletic, physical, and
were going to be hard to beat.
We knew that their most dan-
gerous opportunities would
come by way of set pieces. All
five of their goals were scored
that way today. This is an area
we’ve struggled in lately and
something we need to get bet-
ter at if we want to make up
some ground in SEC.”

MSU
Continued from Page 1B
Landrews made the play again
on Auburn’s third third down
when he stopped running back
Asa Martin for no gain on third-
and-1.
In the first half, Auburn had
third-and-1 three times and
third-and-2 once. It converted
none of them.
“We give relentless effort and
we pride ourselves on it,” safe-
ty Mark McLaurin said. “In the
red zone, it’s either zero or three
(points). We pride ourselves on
it. We’re going to live by that stan-
dard and play by that standard.”
McLaurin showed what he
meant on a big run by running
back JaTarvious Whitlow that
could have helped the Tigers
close to within a field goal. It
looked like Whitlow was going
to break free for a 42-yard touch-
down run with only cornerback
Maurice Smitherman to beat.
But Smitherman “turned the jets
on” and reached his arms around
Whitlow within feet of the goal
line. McLaurin, who also was
in hot pursuit, chopped his arm
over the top and punched the
football out. Effort turned an ob-
vious touchdown into an empty
possession.
“Coach (Shoop) preached all
week it’s going to come down to
defense,” Smitherman said.
MSU also showed it prepared
well for the “mental gymnastics”
defense need to perform to oper-
ate against coach Gus Malzahn’s
offense. MSU expected to face a
little trickery after
Louisiana-Lafayette and Ken-
tucky turned to unorthodox for-
mations when they needed an
advantage. Some of those plays
worked.
Florida also broke tendency
with screen passes to the bound-
ary side of the field, the one with
less room to work based on where
the ball is within the hashmarks.
The Gators’ only touchdown —
the only one MSU has allowed in
its last two games — came on a
trick play, a double pass.
Shoop sees it as a sign of re-
spect that teams feel they have to
“play left-handed,” against his de-
fense. But the Bulldogs still have
to get the job done, which it did
against Malzahn’s offense that
uses motion, exotic formations,
and personnel groupings to
make simple concepts more com-
plex. The things MSU’s previous
opponents turn to in desperation,
Auburn does all of the time.
“It’s a lot of mental gymnas-
tics. It’s a lot of thinking out
there pre-snap and making ad-
justments on the sideline,” line-
backer Erroll Thompson said.

DEAR ABBY:
For mothers
out there who

No guy wants a girl who can’t

details of his relationship to
be shared with you.
Men want confident wom-

support any of them.
What’s the appropriate
course of action here? Must I
give the child a gift anyway, or
just stay away from the party?
I really don’t want to get into
any political discussions
with either the parents or
the grandparents, and I think
there would be hurt feelings if
I don’t show up. – IN A BIND
DEAR IN A BIND: What a
shame that a child’s party
was used as an excuse for
a political fundraiser. I can’t
imagine any 5-year-old being
“thrilled” to receive a political
donation as a birthday gift.
However, because the
child is the grandson of a
“dear” friend, I do think a gift
is in order. Make it something
a 5-year-old will enjoy, have it
delivered, and find an excuse
not to attend if you feel it will
devolve into something you
prefer to avoid. Hurt feelings
or not, you are not obligated
to go to the party.
dissonance. Counteract by
being more sensitive and con-
scientious than you think you
need to be.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Maybe the repetition of certain
behaviors seems silly, but if it
means something to someone,
then its significance should be
noted. Rituals matter to people
– unreasonably so! Don’t waste
time negating this.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
The potential for fresh faces is
high today. You’ve the space for
a new friend to drop into your
world. If the other person also
has the room, things will devel-
op very quickly. If not, it will be a
slow-grow situation.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Be aware that many don’t have
the high emotional intelligence
it takes to bridge gaps of under-
standing between people. You
do, and you’ll be called to use
this talent today.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). There are several ways
out of the entrapment of false
need. Being grateful for what we
have inoculates us from a lot of
superfluous needy feelings. So
does differentiating between
need and want.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). You’ll wind up in
an unexpected yet enjoyable
conversation. It doesn’t have to
lead anywhere to add sparkle to
your life. But if it does develop
into friendship, that will be
great, too.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). There is an exhausting
amount of nuance involved in
casual social relationships. The
trick is to be sensitive to your
place without putting too harsh
a limit on your natural instinct.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You’ve been the “mini-
me,” and you’ve had a copycat
of your own. These situations
usually end in the same way
– with the realization that the
similarities between even very
similar people only go so far.
Today is no different.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). There are times for
listening, for talking and for
saying nothing, just offering
a compassionate heart and
perhaps a hug. You’re sensitive
to what mode is right for the
situation, and you’ll lead with
this understanding.
