WASHINGTON
Twenty years after the Col-

armed intruders as routine
as fire drills, many parents
have only tepid confidence
in the ability of schools to
stop a gunman, according
to a new poll by The Asso-

And while most Ameri-
cans consider schools less
safe than they were 20 years
ago, the poll finds a majori-

for shootings. Bullying,
the availability of guns, the
internet and video games
share more of the blame.
Lee Wisdom, a mother

trained as much as possible
to prepare for an attack, but
worries schools are still vul-

Fire out, organ intact but work
ahead for charred Notre Dame
‘Notre Dame was
destroyed but the soul
of France was not’
Archbishop of Paris
Michel Aupetit
By THOMAS ADAMSON
The Associated Press
PARIS — Firefighters declared
success Tuesday morning in an
over 12-hour battle to extinguish
an inferno engulfing Paris’ iconic
Notre Dame cathedral that claimed
its spire and roof, but spared its
bell towers.
What remained was a blackened
shell of the monument immortal-
ized in Victor Hugo’s 1831 novel
“The Hunchback of Notre Dame,”
a building that had survived almost
900 years of tumultuous French
history but was devastated amid
renovation works at the start of
Catholic Easter week.
Its iconic twin bell towers re-
mained visibly intact. Paris officials
said the world famous 18th century
organ that boasts 8,000 pipes also
appeared to have survived, along
with other treasures inside the ca-
thedral, after a plan to safeguard
heritage was quickly put into ac-
tion.
At dawn, the twin 69-meter tow-
ers swarmed with building special-
ists and architects, looking tiny
from the ground as they conducted
analysis.
“The entire fire is out,” declared
Paris firefighters’ spokesman Ga-
briel Plus, adding that workers
were currently “surveying the
movement of structures and extin-
guishing smoldering residues.”
“The task is — now the risk of
fire has been put aside — about the
building, how the structure will re-
sist,” said Junior Interior Minister
Laurent Nunez in front of the ca-
thedral.

Parisian doctor
itors to France’s charismatic capital Quentin Salardaine
came together to pray for Notre
Dame as a fire quickly advanced through the cathedral Monday.
The blaze that engulfed Notre Dame brought memories and sorrow
to people around the world who had seen or dreamed of seeing the
church known for its sculpted gargoyle guards and place in literary
history. But emotions might have run highest in the crowd outside an-
other Gothic church, not far from where Notre Dame burned.
In front of the Saint-Julien-des-Pauvres church, a couple hundred
people knelt in prayer in the middle of a larger group. More voices
joined an unceasing communal hymn sung mostly a cappella, though
accompanied at one point by two violins.
“The cathedral is more than walls. It’s a symbol of Catholic France,”
said Paris resident Gaetane Schlienger, 18, who tried to climb a tree
near the vigil. “But I have a lot of friends who are not Catholic, and for
them it also has a huge impact.”
Schlienger said she comes to Notre Dame nearly every week be-
cause gazing at it “you feel in security, in peace. It’s magnificent.”
The cathedral also called to Quentin Salardaine, 25, a doctor from
Paris, as flames devoured it and colored the sky.
“I think this building just symbolizes Paris, no matter if you’re Cath-
olic or not. I’m not,” Salardaine said. “I’m just here because I couldn’t
stay at my place just knowing that this thing is happening and there are
people gathering, singing this religious anthem.”

Mississippi lottery board adopts rules on ethics and records

Governing board also taking steps to hire
bankers to provide financial services and a
person to run day-to-day operations
By EMILY WAGSTER PET TUS
The Associated Press
JACKSON — The governing
board for the upcoming Missis-
sippi Lottery is setting rules
for ethics and public records.
It is also taking steps to hire
bankers to provide financial
services and a person to run
day-to-day operations.
Mississippi is one of the last
states to create a lottery after
legislators voted to do so in
August, partly as a way to pro-
vide money to pay for roads and
bridges.
Republican Gov. Phil Bryant
nominated the five lottery cor-
poration board members sever-
al months ago, and they were
recently confirmed by state
senators. Tickets for the game
of chance could go on sale later
this year.
Lottery corporation board
members met Monday at the
Balch & Bingham law office in
Jackson and adopted rules that
say many of the corporation’s
records will be available to the
public. Exceptions include doc-
uments that would reveal trade
secrets, lottery security or in-
formation from a confidential
source about vendors or the
qualifications or conduct of re-
tailers that sell lottery tickets.
Board members also adopt-
ed an ethics policy that bans
lottery directors or employees
from having a financial inter-
est in any vendor that does
business with the lottery. The
policy also says any employee,
officer or director who leaves
the lottery corporation must
wait at least a year before rep-
resenting any vendor or lottery
retailer in front of the corpo-
ration or before accepting any
employment with or compensa-
tion from any lottery vendor.
“Most of this is common
sense,” Lucien Smith, a Balch
& Bingham attorney, told the
board.
Also Monday, board mem-
bers heard proposals from rep-
resentatives of BancorpSouth
and Hancock Whitney Bank.
The board members said they
will decide in the next few
weeks on which bank will be
awarded a financial services
contract.
“These are both high-qual-
ity institutions, as far as I
know,” board member Gerard
Gibert said.
The decision could be made
at about same time that the
board hires a president for the
lottery corporation.

er is resign-

Starkville’s
board of
alderman
take a job in Miller
Biloxi.
Miller submitted a let-
ter of resignation to the
city on Monday. His resig-
nation is effective imme-
diately.
Miller confirmed his
resignation to The Dis-
patch. He said he’s taking
a job as director of ad-
vancement for St. Patrick
High School in Biloxi.
He currently works with
Mississippi State Univer-
sity’s Extension Service
overseeing municipal pro-
gramming, and part of his
work includes a role as the
director for the Mississip-
pi Institute of Municipal
Clerks.
He said he’s proud of
the work the city has ac-
complished in his time on
the board of aldermen,
from an increased digital
footprint to adjusting the
utilities rate structure to
help fund a massive infra-
structure project.
“I’ve been incredibly
proud to serve with May-
or Lynn Spruill and the
board of aldermen,” Mill-
er said. “We have accom-
plished more in two years
than some cities I’ve seen
in my work across the
state do in 20 years.”
Mayor Lynn Spruill
said Miller has been an
invaluable alderman.
“He’s been a wonder-
ful board member and
it is our loss,” she said.
“I’m very pleased that it’s
a positive move for him,
because in the scheme
of things, if it’s best for
his family and him, then I
certainly wish him all the
best.”
With Miller’s resigna-
tion, the board will oper-
ate with six members for
now. Spruill said the city
will consider a date for
a special election to fill
Miller’s seat at today’s
board meeting. She said
she hopes the city can set
the special election on the
same date as a referen-
dum to increase the city’s
2-percent tourism sales
tax, which aldermen will
also consider today.
“I’m hopeful that our
special election can coin-
cide with our referendum
so we aren’t holding two
elections,” Spruill said.
“But we’ll have to see
what those dates would be
and how that would make
sense for us.”
Miller, who is original-
ly from Ocean Springs,
has lived in Starkville 12
years. He served as Ward
5’s commissioner on the
Planning and Zoning
Commission for 2015-17,
before winning election as
an alderman. He followed
former Ward 5 Alderman
Scott Maynard, who opt-
ed not to seek another
term. Miller also coached
travel basketball for years
while in Starkville.
During his time on
the board, Miller led the
aldermen on a number
of issues that have led to
changes in city policy.
He introduced a change
to the city’s parking or-
dinance, which was ap-
proved and enacted last
summer, to set residential
parking by the number
of dwelling units, rather
than square feet.
He also encouraged
board members to look at

one inside was yelled at
by the people working
and shoved out into the
storm,” she wrote. “I was
forced outside when the
tornado was hitting cam-
pus and had to find anoth-
er place to seek shelter
after getting kicked out.
Not OK.”
Ty Thames, chef and
owner of Bin 612, ac-
knowledged to The Dis-
patch his staff and the
six contracted security
guards on duty that night
all could have handled the
situation better. He main-
tains, however, the goal
was to get the patrons to
take shelter in a parking
garage across the street
— not to simply turn
them out into the storm.
Thames said he mon-
itored the weather and
kept in touch with meteo-
rologists throughout Sat-
urday. As severe weather
approached, his and other
Cotton District establish-
ments opted to close.
Bin 612 was not a safe
shelter, he said, and the
basement has limited
space, though it did shel-
ter 15 people Saturday.
“Given the wall-to-
wall glass windows, it’s
not a tornado shelter and
needed to be evacuated,”
Thames said. “We were
trying to get everyone
out. The parking garage
was 50 feet away, and
everyone I spoke to was
telling me that was much
safer.”
Bin 612 attempted to
close at 9:55 p.m. — about
the same time a tornado
touched down in the Craig
Springs area southwest of
Starkville — and Thames
said restaurant staff told
patrons to seek appropri-
ate shelter, including at
the parking garage.
However, the attempts
to get patrons out were
not entirely successful,
and as the storms grew

Our View

The perfect
candidate addresses
substantive issues
With roughly four months before Mississippi-
ans go to the polls to elect all state-wide offices,
the latest Millsaps College/Chism Strategies
State of the State Survey provides an interesting
glimpse into what likely voters see as important
issues in the campaign.
Going strictly by the results of the survey, the
“perfect” candidate considers the Legislature’s
$1.1 billion in funding for roads/bridges infra-
structure as inadequate and would have raising
taxes on big corporations or increasing the state’s
fuel tax to properly fund those needed improve-
ments.
That candidate would also advocate more
spending on K-12 education, ensuring that
healthcare is more accessible and affordable and
protect struggling rural hospitals, perhaps by
expanding Medicaid.
That candidate would favor reforming the
sales tax on groceries — favoring removing those
taxes altogether or reducing the sales tax below
the current 7 percent.
That candidate would enthusiastically support
an increase in the minimum wage, preferably to
$10 per hour. The candidate would also strongly
support restoring voting rights to felons after
they have completed their sentences and strongly
believes the state should continue to require chil-
dren to be vaccinated before attending school.
The candidate would avoid running on any
culture war issues. Although the candidate is
generally “pro life,” the candidate opposes using
taxpayer dollars to defend expected court chal-
lenges to the “fetal heartbeat” legislation passed
by the Legislature in the recently-completed
session.
Would that be your “perfect” candidate?
Probably not.
Taken as a whole, it is unlikely that any voter
would be in complete agreement with a candidate
who relied on the polling to build a campaign.
Every voter has his or her own “deal-breakers”
or “must-haves” and while, according to the sur-
vey, roads/bridges infrastructure is the biggest
issue, only 1 in 4 of those surveyed put it at the
top. A pro-life vote might vote against even the
most ardent road/bridge advocate if that candi-
date opposed restricting abortion, for example.
The survey can measure support or opposi-
tion, but not passion.
That said, there doesn’t appear to be any
single issue in this election likely to galvanize the
voters.
That doesn’t mean there aren’t some issues
that resonate with voters, though. Spending more
on roads/bridges, raising the minimum wage,
continuing vaccinations and eliminating or reduc-
ing sales tax on groceries all showed support at
69 percent or higher.
Because the survey is weighted toward likely
votes — white, female, Republican, non-college
graduates — the results give candidates some
idea of the mind of the electorate. Don’t be sur-
prised if some of these issues begin to emerge in
campaigns.
That, in itself, makes the survey valuable.
To date, no candidate we are aware of has
even mentioned increasing the minimum wage,
for example, even though 72 percent of those
surveyed support the idea. Likewise, when 69
percent of those surveyed support reducing sales
tax on groceries, it’s something candidates may
find hard to ignore.
If nothing else, it has the potential to lend
substance to the campaigns that all too often are
rhetoric-heavy and policy-light.
That’s the one thing all voters should approve
of.

In response to Sunday letter
You ask who is “responsible” for the Trump
Presidency? As Charlie Daniels said, “Don’t you
go off a-blamin’ God, you know it ain’t His fault”.
So who gets the blame, or the credit, depending
on your point of view? Well, I personally give that
to: the Democrat Party, Hillary, Bernie Sanders,
ignorant voters (on both sides of the aisle), sorry
politicking, our sorry education system, (from
kindergarten through college), die-hard Party-line
voters, and especially immature voters (mostly
those under age twenty-five).
As for the Russian question, there is evidence
that the Democrat Party was involved with that,
too. If I wanted to live under a government that the
Russians had a hand in electing, I’d move to Mos-
cow. With the way the last election cycle went, I
wouldn’t be surprised if Jesse “the Bod”, “the Gov”,

two main reasons: We lack a major
urban area and we are still suffer-
ing from the vestiges of slavery,
including the devastation of the
Civil War.
As a result, our state has tradi-
tionally been a big beneficiary of
federal dollars, getting two and
three dollars back from every
dollar we pay in federal taxes. It’s a Medicaid expansion? For one thing,
good deal.
When the Democrats were in
power, we took every advantage
of federal largesse. But since the
Republicans took over, we turn up
our noses at this money, because
Republicans don’t like welfare,
even when it is beneficial to our
state.
This could be one reason our
state quit growing for the first time people signed up, lowering the
in 50 years. States that haven’t ex-
panded Medicaid have much lower
levels of job growth.
In rural areas, hospitals that
were once the biggest employers
Hutchinson and the Arkansas
legislature pioneered a private
option in which the state received
a federal waiver allowing a Medic-
aid work requirement. (The work
requirement is nonsensical for the
expansion since nobody without a
job is going to make 138 percent of
the poverty level.)
So how is Arkansas doing with
Arkansas’ population is up 97,797,
according to the U.S. Census
Bureau. That’s five times the rate
of Mississippi’s growth of 18,412.
Arkansas tax collections are up
$200 million this year and the state
is doing well enough to give raises
to state workers.
Louisiana expanded Medicaid
three years ago. More than 470,000
percentage of uninsured to below
eight percent – an all-time record
for the state.
Has the expansion busted the
Louisiana state budget? Not appar-
elected by the people.
But turning down a billion dol-
lars a year and denying insurance
to 300,000 working Mississippians
seems a high price to pay for the
furtherance of an individual’s polit-
ical career.
Meanwhile, the current Re-
publican leadership falls all over
themselves to hand out billions in
tax breaks to huge corporations
with billions in net income, not to
mention the hundreds of millions
that went down the drain subsidiz-
ing cockamamie start-up compa-
nies now bankrupt.
So billions in public welfare for
rich corporations is just fine but
federally-subsidized health care for
the working poor is socialism?
Should be an interesting politi-
cal year.

the Weibles to help look

Team in Columbus.
Doty has been training

Columbus Fire and Res-
cue’s two search dogs,
Jett, a Belgian Malinois,
and soon-to-be-certified
Mack, a McNab Shep-

been called in to assist in

an active case ... with the
utmost care, as a crime
scene,” Doty said.
Working the dogs
In order to be certified,
search dogs and their
handlers train for months
so they can work together
and so the dogs can de-
tect certain smells.
“They’re natural hunt-
ers,” said Bob Weible.
“It’s what a dog’s all about,
and we use that skill that
they have to hunt to find a
missing person. The fact
that they’re hunters. We
just direct what they hunt
for and where they do it.”
When looking for a
missing person, like Bel-
la was on Thursday, han-
dlers try to locate a par-
ticular object — ideally
a piece of clothing, while
Doty suggested a shoe or
rear-view mirror — that
has the individual’s scent
on it. Ideally the dog can
then follow the scent, if
not to the individual then
at least to some kind of
evidence showing where
the person was and where
they may have gone.
“We basically teach
them to work until we tell
them to stop or until they
find the person,” Bob
said.
The dogs can even rule
out other scents by smell-
ing people and things that
would have been around
the missing individual,
he added. That way they
know what scents not to
follow.
How successful they
are depends on many fac-
tors, from the weather to
how old the trail is.
It’s a little different for
cadaver dogs, which is
what Doty specializes in.

OLD WAVERLY COLLEGIATE CHAMPIONSHIP
MSU’s Johnson
SWINGING ON HOME TURF
within striking
distance in Old
Waverly tourney
BY PAUL D. BOWKER
pbowker@cdispatch.com
WEST POINT — Garrett Johnson
thought he had drilled the putt.
Standing on the 18th green Monday at
Old Waverly Golf Club, Johnson, a junior
at Mississippi State, watched as his putt
curved toward the hole.
Johnson made a face as the ball
missed its mark. No matter. He tapped it
in, completing two rounds of play in the
Old Waverly Collegiate Championship
just two strokes behind Marcus Byrd of
Middle Tennessee State.
Johnson, who tied for fifth place in the
Old Waverly tournament last year and
began this year on fire with a win in the
Desert Mountain Intercollegiate in Ari-
zona, shot 3-under 69 twice on Monday
to finish the day at 6 under par. He is tied
with four others for third place and is the
highest-placed Bulldog in the field enter-
ing Tuesday’s final round.
“I played solid all day,” Johnson said.
“I was very comfortable on our own golf
course. We play out here a lot. We pre-
pared really well. I was just trying to hit
the middle of the green, two-putt every
hole and the birdies are going to fall in
where they are.”
Just one shot behind Johnson are
MSU’s Ross Bell and Cameron Clarke,
both competing as individuals.

From the earliest he can remem-

Dalton Cantrell has always been
bigger and stronger than his coun-

A football player by trade, his
thick frame and powerful stature
suited the gridiron. But by the time
he arrived at Caledonia as a fresh-
man, he was approached about an-
other opportunity.
“I played football for 11 years
and it just came naturally honestly,”
Cantrell said of powerlifting. “Once
I got into high school it just kind of
took off from there.”
During his four years on the
Caledonia powerlifting team, he

Diamond
Dawgs at
home for
another
BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com
There’s nothing quite
like home. Just ask the
Mississippi State baseball
team.
The Diamond Dawgs
will look to close out their
five-game home stand un-
defeated with a 6:30 p.m.
game Tuesday against
Texas Southern before
taking on Arkansas in a
three-game series in Fay-
etteville starting Thurs-
day.
MSU comes into the
contest as winners of seven
of its last eight, including a
4-0 stretch last week with
a win over South Alabama
and a three-game sweep
over Alabama during Su-
per Bulldog Weekend.
At 31-6, MSU has tied
the 1989 squad as the fast-
est team to 30 wins in a
season in program histo-
ry. The Diamond Dawgs
are also the only Division I
program to enter the 10th
week of the regular season
with 30 or more wins.
“It was a good first half
(of the season),” sopho-
more first baseman Tan-
ner Allen said. “But no-
body is going remember
the first half if you don’t
have a good second half.
Offensively, the Dia-

Allen has shaken his
midseason slump, having
notched 13 hits in his last
five games.
His three doubles in
Sunday’s win over Ala-

since he did so June 3,
2018 against Samford in
the NCAA Regionals.
Fellow sophomore Row-

fans, Cantrell could reflect.
Entering the season, he’d
hoped to break the state squat re-
cord at 830 pounds. A healthy diet
of stretching and yoga pushed
Cantrell’s flexibility to new heights
as he chased the record.
As time came for the state meet
there was a realization his maxi-
mum squat would not quite reach
the mark. But with a year’s worth of
preparation and a state title already
in tow, Cantrell had a medal to de-
fend.
In response, the 434-pound

Cherono tops two-time Boston
champion to win marathon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Two-time Boston Mar-
athon champion Lelisa Desisa turned
onto Boylston Street with a sliver of a
lead, leaning in front of two other run-
ners with the finish line in sight.
Unfortunately for him, one of them
was the fastest man in the field.
Lawrence Cherono needed every
bit of his speed to outkick Desisa in a
sprint to the tape on Monday, passing
him just steps away from the finish line
to win the 123rd Boston Marathon in 2
hours, 7 minutes 57 seconds.
Desisa, who won in 2015 and 2013,
the year the race was overshadowed
by a bombing at the finish line, eased
up after realizing he was beaten and
finished 2 seconds back. Kenneth Kip-
kemoi was third, another 8 seconds
behind, one of seven Kenyans in the
top 10.
“It was no man’s race to win,” said
Cherono, who had won in Seville,
Prague, Honolulu and twice in Am-
sterdam but never in a major marathon
before. “I kept on focusing. And at the
end, I was the winner. I’m so grateful,
so happy.”
Worknesh Degefa broke away from
defending champion Des Linden and
the rest of the women’s pack in the
Framingham flats and ran alone for
the last 20 miles to claim the $150,000
first prize and a gilded olive wreath
from Marathon, Greece.
The 28-year-old Ethiopian, who set
a national record while finishing sec-
ond in Dubai less than three months
ago, won in 2:23:31. Kenya’s Edna
Kiplagat was second, reducing a gap of
more than two minutes to 42 seconds
at the finish.
American Jordan Hasay was third
and Linden was fifth.
“Seeing Degefa go out — you know
her ability, you know what she’s done
and you wonder how it translates to
this course,” Linden said. “But when
she starts putting down those super
quick miles, you say ‘All right, this
is her race to lose.’ She becomes the
outlier and you let her just go and hope
that she might come back.”
She didn’t.
Instead, she became the eighth
Ethiopian woman to win the race and
the third in seven years. A half mara-
thon specialist, Degefa had never seen
the Boston course before Monday.
“Last year, I watched all the mara-
thon coverage,” she said. “I kept that
in my mind.”
One year after an icy rain and a
near-gale headwind resulted in the
slowest winning times in four decades,
race organizers again prepared for the
foul New England weather. But over-
night thunderstorms moved on before
the runners left Hopkinton; the sun
even made an appearance about half-
way through.
Linden took advantage of last year’s
storm to splash her way to the first win
for an American woman since 1985.
But with conditions back to normal,
so were the results: East Africans from
Kenya and Ethiopia dominating the po-
diums. At the 30K mark the lead pack
was still close to a dozen and included
three of the last four champions: Desi-
sa, 2016 winner Geoffrey Kirui and ‘17
champ Lemi Berhanu Hayle.
“I was afraid of the guy who won
two years ago. After he dropped out,
I decided to win,” said Desisa, who
did not finish in either of the last two
years. “I tried at the last, I saw (Cher-
ono) suddenly, then I couldn’t control
the pace.”
A field of 30,000 runners followed
the elites, ditching their trash bags
and ponchos on the Hopkinton Green
before embarking on the 26.2-mile
trek from Hopkinton to Copley Square.
It’s the first time the race has been run
on April 15 since the 2013 attacks; of-
ficials held a ceremony at 2:49 p.m. to
honor those killed and maimed by the
two pressure cooker bombs that ex-
ploded near the finish line.
Daniel Romanchuk, 20, became the
youngest-ever men’s wheelchair cham-
pion in Boston, finishing in 1:21:36 for
the fastest time ever for an Ameri-
can. Manuela Schar won the women’s
wheelchair race for the second time,
adding it to her titles in in Berlin, Chi-
cago, New York and Tokyo.
If she wins in London in two weeks,
she will have swept the World Mara-
thon Major series.
“I was just really happy that the
weather turned out to be actually real-
ly nice,” said Schar.

“I could tell that this one meant
a lot more to him,” Caledonia coach
Jason Forrester said. “Winning the
first one was by far a great accom-
plishment and it did mean a lot.
But I think this one, for whatever
reason, it seemed a little more emo-
tional for him and I think he really
enjoyed it more and was really awe-
some to see him do it again.”
Outside the gym, coaches and
teachers alike rave about Cantrell’s
respect and determination.
During Saturday’s meet, one of
the women helping to run the event
pulled Forrester aside.
The worker wanted to let
Cantrell’s head coach know how
nice and polite his athlete had been
throughout the championships.
With the exchange still reso-
nating, Forrester took to his email
Monday morning to express his
gratitude to teachers around the
school for helping to create that mo-
ment and shape Caledonia’s latest
state champion.
“I wanted to make sure that they
understood how much I appreciated
what they did for him, too,” he said.
“Because I got to reap the reward of
those people telling me about how
good he was. I just wish they had
been there to hear it too.”

Dodgers take lead in tribute to Jackie Robinson celebration

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Vin Scul-
ly joined the widow of Jackie
Robinson to honor the player
who broke baseball’s color bar-
rier during Robinson’s centen-
nial birthday celebration Mon-
day night.
Scully greeted 96-year-old
Rachel Robinson with a kiss
after being introduced to the
crowd, with Scully drawing the
loudest cheers in a rare public
appearance.
He stood behind Rachel with
his hands holding her arms
during the national anthem at
Dodger Stadium. They were
joined by Robinson’s daughter,
Sharon, and son, David, who
linked arms with their mother
as they walked on the field.
Robinson became the first
black player in Major League
Baseball with the Brooklyn
Dodgers on April 15, 1947.
Scully began calling the team’s
games three years later, and
the now-retired Hall of Fame
announcer was friendly off the
field with the man he called
“Jack.”
Only 7.7% of current MLB
players are black, according to
MLB.
“If not for Jackie Robinson,
I probably wouldn’t be here
today playing baseball in the
United States,” said Cincinna-
ti Reds outfielder Yasiel Puig,
who came from Cuba to chase
his pro aspirations. “That’s the
reason we respect this day.”
Robinson, who died at age 53
in 1972, would have turned 100
on Jan. 31.
His No. 42 was worn by ev-
ery major leaguer Monday. The
number was retired around the
league in 1997.
“For me, it’s a big opportuni-
ty and responsibility that I hold
very dear to my heart,” Dodg-
ers manager Dave Roberts said.
“To put this uniform on today
and wear that number today, 42,
it’s always special.”
Colorado Rockies manag-
er Bud Black recalled reading
about Robinson as a youngster.
“To this day I still read about
him,” Black said in San Diego.
“What a pioneer. What a great
example of a human being and
what he meant to our country,
and in the bigger picture, what
he meant for all of us culturally,
not only in baseball, but in so-
ciety.”
In Minnesota, Toronto Blue
Jays manager Charlie Montoyo
started his pregame media ses-
sion at 3:42 p.m. CDT in honor
of Robinson.
“That’s probably one of
the people in baseball I wish I
would’ve met,” he said.
At Dodger Stadium, the
pregame ceremonies included
42 current and former Jackie
Robinson Foundation scholars.
Students from Cleveland Ele-
mentary, Washington Middle
School and John Muir High —
all attended by Robinson while
growing up in nearby Pasadena
— were on hand.
Robinson’s No. 42 was cut
into the center field grass.
The Robinson siblings each
tossed out first pitches. David’s
was a strike to Roberts, while
Sharon’s bounced on its way to
catcher Russell Martin.
Sharon Robinson works as
MLB’s education programming
consultant.
The Dodgers hosted an in-
vitation-only 100th birthday
celebration in the Stadium Club
featuring a sneak preview of
the Jackie Robinson Museum,
set to open in December in New
York City.

CANDORVILLE Horoscopes
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
16). Your talents will be sought
after. There’s a plethora of
creative situations for you to
involve yourself in, especially
in the next three months.
That said, it’s not a time to
invest money. Rather, put your
energy in and do your research.
September brings the lucrative
opportunity; October shows the
windfall. Sagittarius and Virgo
adore you. Your lucky numbers
BABY BLUES are: 8, 4, 49, 2 and 10.
ARIES (March 21-April
19). The salesman keeps
dropping the price because he
knows that once you leave the
showroom, chances are you
won’t be back. For clarity, get
distance between you and the
final decision.
BEETLE BAILEY
MALLARD FILLMORE
FAMILY CIRCUS
TAURUS (April 20-May
20). You are fun to be around,
and people like working with
you. Try other modalities out,
too, though, especially when
it’s your turn to be in charge.
Overusing “fun” could hurt your
ability to lead.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
In order to put your best into
the things that matter most to
you, a small sacrifice will be
made. Probably, this has to do
with giving up a habit, attitude
or possession. It won’t hurt. In
fact, it will free you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Returning to the things you did
when you were less experienced
will bring comfort, perspec-
tive and reassurance. You’ve
changed and adapted to deal
with all that happened. Yet, at
your core you’re still the same
person.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Should you say “no” to the
things that are clearly outside
of your expertise, or should
you say “yes” and stretch to
the challenge? What’s the time
commitment? To experience
something new for an hour will
be worth the inconvenience.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You make people feel comfort-
able, and therefore they are
more likely to say yes to you.
Part of this has to do with con-
sistency of action and attitude.
The other part is your way of
explaining things so people
really understand.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
One way to test a relationship
is to move furniture together,
or execute another task that re-
quires teamwork. If it goes well,
it’s something to celebrate. If
it’s a major pain, there might
be communication issues to
work out.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Your options may seem
frustratingly limited, but in real-
ity there are choices that have
nothing to do with the ones you
are considering. Think broader.
If it weren’t for the things in
front of you, what else would
you choose?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). It’s a day of working out
minor differences, which you’ll
do like a champ. Then, a good
question to ask is, “How can
I support you going forward?”
The answers will surprise you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). You’re excellent at reading
people, especially when some-
thing is bothering them. Better
yet, you’re not afraid to gently
open up a dialogue. Because of
this, you’ll facilitate connection
and maybe even healing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). As you make your pitch,
go for the gold. Not all “yes” an-
swers are equal. Some actually
mean “no” and others mean
“maybe.” A committed “yes” is
not just an answer; it’s a line of
action.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Even though you are not
responsible for a situation, you
take full responsibility for your
reaction to it. Note that camer-
as may be involved, as they so
often are these days.
