Richmond County native’s family safe and sound after Oklahoma tornado Dawn M. Kurry Richmond County Daily Journal Dawn M. Kurry | Daily Journal Wreaths for each veterans’ organization wait to be symbolically placed by members of their organization. Richmond County honors veterans, remembers the fallen Dawn M. Kurry Richmond County Daily Journal Richmond County’s Veterans Park in Rockingham filled with people wishing to honor veterans on Saturday; whether family members of veterans or active duty military members, or simply those who wished to honor the fallen and those who serve today. American Legion member Carlton Hawkins welcomed the crowd and introduced Rockingham Mayor Steve Morris, who read a proclamation by the city and the county to recognize the holiday. Hawkins then introduced the guest speaker, Lacy Sheppard, past AmVets state commander and veteran of the Vietnam War. Sheppard served in the 173 Airborne Division and he was active with the Red Cross in New York City during the September 11 attacks and during Hurricane Katrina. Sheppard spoke about what it meant to come home as a veteran, and what it meant to continue to serve for the Red Cross when disaster struck. He drove a truck that pulled a mobile kitchen that could crank out 30,000 meals in one day. Sheppard said the folks of Richmond County were lucky to not have experienced devastating natural disasters that leave people homeless in an instant. Sheppard let those in attendance know that the ceremony would be different than it had been in the past, because it would include a demonstration of the burial of a veteran. “Tell someone you love them today, because you may otherwise not get to,” said Sheppard. “I just think See HONORS | 3A Daughters of the American Revolution honor local JROTC student Staff Report Shaniqua Bostic, a cadet in the JROTC program of Richmond Senior High School, was recently presented the bronze JROTC medal by the General Henry William Harrington Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

A family from Richmond County that had moved to Oklahoma City is safe and sound after the massive tornado ripped a 17-mile wide track of devastation through the area last week. The powerful EF5 tornado killed 24 people, including 10 children, and destroyed 1,200 homes. Victoria Johnson grew up in Hamlet but relocated to Oklahoma City within the past two years after marrying her husband, Weldon Johnson. Victoria said she was on her way to her daughter’s school when the day went from bright and sunny to dark as night. “I was on my way to pick up my little girl from school,” said Victoria. “Everything went from sunny to dark like it was 9 o’clock at night. We hadn’t gotten a warning yet but then the alarm went off.” Victoria said she realized then she wasn’t going to make it to the school. “I had to get somewhere safe,” she said. “I never made it to the school. I went to my boss’ office and he was going to shelter me and the other employees. The tornado was 12 miles away but you could hear it.” Victoria said even the sound was frightening. “I sounds like you’re under water, like a whale, or something exploding,” she said. “I was really scared. I was really praying. I’m a believer and you’ve got to be ready to meet the Lord and Savior at any time.” The tornado hit an area Victoria had been scheduled to go to for work, but her schedule changed at the last minute and she was needed elsewhere. She said she was thankful for the change of events, especially since later examination of the area revealed that the tornado hit the highway she had been on. Meanwhile at the school where her daughter attends first grade, the children were taken to a hallway in a lowlying area of the school. Victoria later asked her daughter what they had done when the alarm went off. “She told me the teacher had them walk to a lower level of the school and bend down with her hands over their heads in a hallway,” said Victoria. “She said they stayed there until the principal cleared the school. She said she wasn’t really scared.” In preparation of their move to the Midwest, Victoria and her husband Weldon explained the likelihood of torSee SAFE | 3A Contributed photo A massive tornado struck Moore, Oklahoma on May 20, bypassing Victoria Johnson, formerly of Hamlet, and her husband as well as their daughter who was in school at the time.

Tuesday, May 28, 2013 Page 3A from page one Pole top and bucket rescue training event held at Pee Dee Electric Pee Dee Electric hosted its annual OSHA required Pole Top and Bucket Rescue training on May 9, at its corporate office in Wadesboro. Linemen from both Anson and Richmond counties attended the event, which focused on proper procedure for rescuing someone with potential injuries from the top of a power pole. During the training, a lineman is required to follow the OSHA required Mayday rescue procedure within five minutes or less. Requirements of the procedure include a lineman recognizing the need for a rescue, making a mayday call over the radio, putting on their climbing gear and climbing a pole to perform a rescue using a rope method to lower the injured person to the ground, following with resuscitation of the injured person. The fastest rescue time of the day was by First Class Lineman Kenny Simmons, with a time of 1:43.75. Simmons also holds the honor of winning the 2012 N.C. Statewide Pole Top competition last year in Raleigh. Pee Dee Electric is a non-profit organization which has been in business since 1939. The goal is to provide reliable, dependable electric service for members at the lowest possible cost. The service area consists of Anson, Richmond, Union, Stanly, Montgomery, Moore, and Scotland counties. Contributed photo Honors From page 1A me buried here under these white crosses.” Sheppard spoke of the rows of white crosses, each representing a fallen veteran buried in the Veteran’s Park of Richmond County, each having had the ceremony the crowd was about to witness. The Laying of the Wreaths is an annual tradition each veterans’ organization can take part in by purchasing a wreath in honor of the soldiers they honor from various conflicts. Veterans from each organization presented the wreaths and placed them in a designated area after Sheppard spoke. An invocation was given in honor of those fallen as well as a blessing for the meal that followed. Then, AmVets Honor Guard, Post 316, presented a 21-gun salute by firing rifles three times in unison. Then the song “Taps” was played on a bugle by Nathan Yarborough. Lastly the American flag was folded while Sheppard read a symbolic interpretation of each fold in the 13-fold step required of folding the flag. According to Sheppard, the first fold of our Flag is a symbol of life. The second fold is a symbol of our belief in eternal life. The third fold is made in honor and remembrance of the veterans departing our ranks who gave a portion of their lives for the defense of our country to attain peace throughout the world. The fourth fold represents our weaker nature, for as American citizens trusting, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in time of war for His divine guidance. The fifth fold is a tribute to our country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, “Our Country, in dealing with other countries may she always be right; but it is still our country, right or wrong.” The sixth fold is for where our hearts lie. It is with our heart that we pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The seventh fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that we protect our country and our flag against all her enemies, whether they be found within or without the boundaries of our Republic. The eighth fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day, and to honor mother, for whom it flies on Mother’s Day. The ninth fold is a trib- Safe From page 1A to their daughter, who was nervous as first but soon grew used to hearing the alarm testing every Saturday at noon. Weldon Johnson is a tow-truck driver and a pastor. He was out towing cars when the tornado hit. Many cars had sustained significant hail damage from a tornadogenerating storm just a few days before the massive tornado struck. He said the sky grew dark and it started to hail. He called his wife and attempted to head west for clear weather. “I tried to get west but you could see the clouds lowering,” said Weldon. “I heard the sirens go off and the radio got static. I heard there was a tornado forming 17 miles south. I didn’t know it was taking the same path as the last one.” Weldon said his towing service was needed in the aftermath, some of which required him to tow cars off of houses. Although Weldon grew up in Oklahoma and had plenty of experience with tornadoes, the devastation still holds his fascination as “the might of God.” “Growing up with tornadoes is something,” said Weldon. “My wife and I wrote a book called ‘Heaven is Hiring’ and it’s about the storms in our lives and how to weather them.” Weldon said you never get used to seeing a house blown off its foundation, but he feels blessed that he and his family are safe. — Staff Writer Dawn M.

The tenth fold is a tribute to the father, for he, too, has given his sons and daughters for the defense of our country since they were first born. The eleventh fold, in the eyes of a Hebrew citizen represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon, and glorifies in their eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The twelfth fold, in the eyes of a Christian citizen, represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in their eyes, God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit. When the Flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost reminding us of our Nation’s motto, “In God We Trust.” After the Flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat, ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington, and the Sailors and Marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States, preserving for us the rights, privileges, and freedoms we enjoy today. — Staff Writer Dawn M.

Tuesday, May 28, 2013 www.yourdailyjournal.com LETTERS Relay for Life is very important to our survivors as well as our caregivers, families and friends Founded in 1931 THE FIRST AMENDMENT “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” Opinion The Charlotte Hornets — and an enemy general everywhere What enemy general who fought in North Carolina is most memorialized here? Here is a hint. The Charlotte pro basketball team is taking back the Hornets name. One reason they are taking back that name is because the old Charlotte Hornets sports gear is still selling all over the world. It is in fact one of the most popular NBA brands long after original owner George Shinn moved the team to New Orleans. Why has this defunct brand been so popular? At the beginning the Charlotte Hornets had an appealing story. It was North Carolina’s first major league sports team, with amazing attendance and plucky teams that played above their potential. But that was in the past. Folks in Chapel Hill argue that their own Alexander Julian’s colors and design of the uniforms is the secret of their continuing popularity. I like to think that the DG Martin Hornet name itself had a Contributing lot to do with it, in part, Columnist because it was an insect. Such little creatures, even those with big stingers, are rarely used for athletic teams, although some college teams like the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets have big fan followings. But Charlotte was the first modern major league pro team with a stinging insect mascot, and it set the team apart. History probably played the most important role in the attachment the local community holds to the Hornets name. Here is where the hint about the foreign general comes in. During the American Revolution, British troops occupied the village of Charlotte for a short time. The patriot militia and general population harassed the occupiers so effectively that the British commander tagged Charlotte and the surrounding area “a damned hornet’s nest of rebellion.” Ever since, Mecklenburg people have been proud to be called hornets and have their county identified as a hornets’ nest. Check the seals, flags, and symbols of Charlotte and Mecklenburg and you will usually find a hornets’ nest somewhere in the design. Miss Leticia Currie, our wonderful teacher at Davidson Junior High, loved local history. Every day she read a chapter of a favorite book. If a student brought a real hornets’ nest to school, she read an extra chapter that day after she proudly displayed the nest on the classroom wall and gave us a short lecture on our proud heritage. The British commander who came up with “damned hornet’s nest of rebellion” designation was Lord Cornwallis, who is my nominee for most memorialized enemy general. In 1780, after occupying Charlotte and Hillsborough, he fought a critical battle at Guilford Court House, and then marched to Wilmington to lick his wounds and prepare for the march to Yorktown, where he surrendered in 1781. Cornwallis traveled across more of North Carolina than many of us who have lived in the state for years. Up in Hillsborough, they remember Cornwallis’s brief occupation in their town’s histories, and there is a residential community named “Cornwallis Hills.” There is Cornwallis Avenue in Gastonia; Cornwallis Streets in Garner, Pittsboro, and Winston Salem; Cornwallis Roads in Riegelwood and Rose Hill; Cornwallis Lane in Charlotte; Cornwallis Drives in Mocksville and Greensboro; and of course, the long Cornwallis Road that runs from just north of Chapel Hill, across Durham and then through the Research Triangle Park. Surely some of the thousands of commuters who see his name every day wonder why we so prominently honor a general whose invasion caused North Carolinians such great suffering. Perhaps it is to remember the strong resistance that General Cornwallis encountered from patriotic North Carolinians across our state. Or maybe it’s just in gratitude for giving us that Hornets nickname, one that after 225 years, is still worth fighting for. www.yourdailyjournal.com Opinion The Raleigh Report for May 28, 2013 As Crossover came to a close, the speed at the General Assembly intensified as the Senate gave final approval to their budget proposal. The budget now heads to the House where Republicans will make changes before presenting a final plan to Gov. Pat McCrory. In a heated debate, Senate Democrats condemned the measure citing harmful cuts to working families to pay for tax handouts for the wealthy. The Senate budget is another step in the State Rep. Ken wrong direction for North Goodman Carolina. The Contributing R e p u b l i c a n Columnist budget fails to take meaningful action to create jobs while continuing devastating cuts to public education. Their plan places new limits on Medicaid eligibility in an effort to solve the problem created when the majority in the General Assembly turned down the Medicaid expansion. Some of these harmful cuts include: • Elimination of the Rural Center, Golden LEAF, regional economic development boards and the BioFuels Center costing roughly $100 million in cuts. • Creating a misleading new rural economic development within the Department of Commerce with a budget of only $17 million over the biennium — that’s nearly an $83 million cut. • Over $400 million slashed from education: removes the cap on class sizes; eliminates teacher tenure; makes deep cuts to Pre-k classrooms reducing 2,500 seats in 2013-2014 and 5,000 seats in 2015; and ends the NC Education Lottery funding for school construction. • Approximately $100 million in job creation funds has been removed. • Weakened health care by cutting Medicaid reimbursement in rural hospitals, reducing benefits, lowering reimbursement rates for providers and increasing copays. • Cutting guaranteed funding for road and bridge construction, and other maintenance projects in rural areas. Both House and Senate Republicans are planning to pay for their budgets with tax plans that cut taxes for the wealthiest individuals and corporations while increasing the tax burden on the middle class. North Carolina deserves better. Rather than pushing budgets and tax plans that harm middle class families, we should focus on developing a budget and tax system that gives our citizens a fair shot at success. On May 21, the NC House Education Committee hosted a passionate debate regarding a proposal allowing lowincome students to use public funds to attend private or religious schools. The Opportunity Scholarship Act would provide annual vouchers totaling $4,200 to students, with $90 million transferred from the state’s education budget to the program over the next two years. The effectiveness of this bill warrants a great deal of concern for families who may have difficulty affording the remaining costs of private schools once vouchers have been distributed. It does not require private schools to follow accountability measures of reporting student test results and performances in the same manner as public schools. The bill was expected to return to the committee for another debate and vote before heading to the Appropriations Committee and the House floor this week. On May 22, the Racial Justice Act — which passed the Senate last month — received a hearing before a House judiciary committee. Members heard firsthand from attorneys, a physician and family members of murder victims on opposite sides of the issue. Opponents made an appeal to legislators to preserve the measure and prevent pending attempts to resume capital punishment. There were no votes taken, however the bill is scheduled for a vote next week. North Carolina celebrated the 20th anniversary of the “Click It or Ticket” campaign by renewing efforts to motivate resident drivers and passengers to fasten their seat belts. North Carolina was the first state in the nation to adopt the seat belt safety campaign in 1993, and since its establishment, the Governor’s Highway Safety Program has reported that the number of crashes, fatalities and injuries involving unbelted passengers has decreased significantly. Lastly, I would like to offer my sincere thoughts and prayers to the tornado victims in Oklahoma. I stand with those adversely affected by the devastating storms, and fully support them as they begin the road to recovery and rebuilding their lives and communities again. — Goodman represents District 66 which includes the counties of Hoke, Montgomery, Richmond, Robeson and Scotland.

That was the evening we came together to celebrate cancer survivors and to honor and remember those who are no longer with us. This was the first Relay at The Rock. Overall we were pleased with the event. We realize we have some adjustments to make for 2014 which will make the event more guest friendly. We wish to thank our planning committee, our team captains and everyone who helped make the Relay happen. Thank you to all the restaurants that help us each year. We would be unable to have our Survivors Breakfast without your help. Thank you to all the businesses, governments, Rockingham Rescue Squad and organizations for your help. Last but not least, thank you to our loyal guests who walked the track in spite of the unseasonably cold and windy weather. Relay for Life is very important to our survivors as well as our caregivers, families and friends. We will continue to Relay until this terrible disease has been cured!

Tuesday, May 28, 2013 www.yourdailyjournal.com local FirstHealth offering smoking cessation clinical trial Staff Report Celebrate National Cancer Survivors Day by quitting smoking and increasing your odds of becoming a cancer survivor. The Clinical Trials office at FirstHealth Moore Regional Hospital is participating in a tobacco-cessation clinical trial for cancer patients. The treatment opportunity studies a quitline-based smoking-cessation treatment for patients receiving treatment for lung, breast, prostate, colorectal, bladder, head and neck, or cervical cancer. The study is being conducted in partnership with FirstHealth’s FirstQuit program. “Our oncology team is very excited about this trial,” said Lori DeSpain, R.N., of FirstHealth Clinical Trials. “Once enrolled, patients who are trying to kick the habit are given the additional support, tools and attention to help be successful during their cancer treatments. Quitting smoking may improve response to cancer treatments by reducing chances of complications and reduc- ing side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.” Quitting smoking also lowers the risk of a cancer recurrence, reduces the risk of a tobacco-related cancer and can result in a longer survival after a cancer diagnosis. To be eligible for the trial, participants must have one of the cancers listed above, have recently smoked tobacco and be willing to consider quitting smoking. Charles Kuzma, M.D., a board certified medical oncologist with the FirstHealth Cancer Center, is the trial’s principal investigator. The Southeast Cancer Control Consortium (SCCC) is a group of community oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists and urologists located in the southeastern United States who are committed to bringing cancer clinical trials to their communities. The clinical research department at FirstHealth works closely with SCCC to bring clinical trials to patients at FirstHealth.

Hamlet Tree and Beautification Group announces May’s Tree of the Month Red Buckeye Tree. Contributed photo The Red Buckeye Tree, located at Hamlet City Lake, is the May Tree of the Month. A North Carolina native tree, the Red Buckeye was chosen by the Hamlet Tree and Beautification Group because of its beautiful red blooms, which have fallen off since the picture was taken. The dark red flowers produce smooth-surfaced capsules containing one to two seeds that are poisonous. The Red Buckeye is a small tree which can grow to 25 feet tall. It has smooth pale brown bark. This particular tree was planted by the City of Hamlet. MARTIN BRO'S.

The shoe was on the other foot for the Raiders as they vied to advance to their first championship appearance in 13 years. Jordan Bissette limited Richmond to three hits and Brett Daniels drove in three to lead Fuquay-Varina to a 12-0 victory in five innings in the deciding Game 3 of the 4A East Region title series Saturday night at Raider Field. “We were pretty sloppy tonight which is uncharacteristic of us,” Richmond coach Ricky Young said. “We didn’t execute and they took advantage of their opportunities.

(AP) — As good as the recordsetting Vanderbilt baseball team has been this season, North Carolina has been just a little bit better. That was the opinion of the NCAA Division I baseball tournament selection committee, which on Monday picked the Tar Heels as the No. 1 national seed for the 64-team tournament. “It was really a close, close call,” committee chairman Dennis Farrell said. “I’m not so sure I can really articulate what the determining factor was.” The tournament opens Friday with 16 four-team, double-elimination regionals. Best-of-three super regionals will be held next week, with those winners moving to the College World Series in Omaha. The national seeds behind North Carolina and Vanderbilt, in order, are: Oregon State, LSU, Cal State Fullerton, Virginia, Florida State and Oregon. North Carolina (52-8) won its first ACC regular-season championship since 1990, and its 48 regular-season victories were a school record. The Tar Heels lost two straight series to end the regular season, but they remain the only team in the nation that hasn’t lost Mike Fox consecutive games. The No. 1 seed is a first for coach Mike Fox’s program. The Tar Heels have been a topeight seed six of the last seven years. The Tar Heels open against Canisius (42-15), which is in the tournament for the first time after winning the MAAC postseason title. “It’s about preparing for the next phase of our season,” Fox said. “After that first pitch Friday, the seeding doesn’t come into play.” Vanderbilt (51-9) looked to have a good shot at earning the No. 1 seed after winning a record 26 regular-season games in Southeastern Conference play. The Commodores feature pitcher Tyler Beede, who is unbeaten in 14 decisions. The SEC led all conferences with a record-tying nine bids. The ACC has eight, and the Pac-12 and Sun Belt have four apiece. Colonial Athletic Association postseason champion Towson (29-28) is sure to be one of the tournament’s top stories. The Towson baseball and men’s soccer programs were destined to be cut because of athletic department financial problems and genderequity imbalance. The baseball program was given a reprieve thanks to an injection of $300,000 a year for two years in state funding approved in April. Soccer was not saved. Former Richmond Senior pitcher Ricky Holden and UNC-Wilmington received an at-large bid. The Seahawks will participate in the Charlottesville Regional hosted by Virginia. Also in that regional are Army and Elon. Harvick pulls away for Coca-Cola 600 victory CONCORD (AP) — Kevin Harvick isn’t done surprising people at Charlotte Motor Speedway or Richard Childress Racing. Closing a bizarre night in NASCAR’s longest event, Harvick pulled away from Kasey Kahne on a restart Sunday with 11 laps left to win the Coca-Cola 600 for the second time in three seasons to The race was stopped nearly 30 minutes at one point when a TV camera support rope snapped and landed on the track and in the grandstands. There were 10 people hurt, according to Charlotte Motor Speedway. Three were taken to hospitals, and have been treated and released. It’s Harvick’s final season at RCR — the only team he’s known since filling the seat of the late Dale Earnhardt in 2001 — before he swifts to Stewart-Haas Racing in 2014. Harvick’s already shown with a victory at Richmond this year he wouldn’t coast through the year and proved that again as he made it through the broken rope, several crashes and Kahne’s dominant machine that led a race-high 156 laps. There was no other course for Harvick than giving his all, saying he and Childress “have really focused on what’s most important for our sponsors and the guys on this team and this organization.” Harvick’s pulled off an unlikely win here in 2011, sweeping past an out-of-fuel Dale Earnhardt Jr. on the final lap. “Last race (2011) we came off turn two in third and by the time we got to the start-finish line we had won the race,” he said. “It was one of those nights,” he said, “where you have to grind it out and keep yourself on the lead lap.” Especially when you don’t know what you’ll face. The race stopped suddenly a little over a quarter of the way into the long event after the nylon rope snapped in the first turn. The cars were brought into the pits and cleanup crews coiled up the long secSee HARVICK | 2B Chuck Burton | AP Photo Kevin Harvick celebrates after winning his second race of the season.

Sources: Clifford to lead Bobcats CHARLOTTE (AP) — The Charlotte Bobcats have hired Los Angeles Lakers assistant Steve Clifford to become their new coach. Two people familiar with the situation said Monday that Clifford had agreed to a threeyear contact. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the announcement Steve Clifford has not been made public. Clifford replaces Mike Dunlap, who was fired after going 21-61 in his only season as coach. Clifford has worked as an assistant in New York, Houston, Orlando and Los Angeles, but has never been a head coach at the NBA level. He has worked under both Jeff and Stan Van Gundy. He becomes the sixth coach of the Bobcats since 2007. The Bobcats made the move to hire Clifford on Monday, one day before he was slated for a second interview with the Milwaukee Bucks for their coaching vacancy. Clifford came to Los Angeles with Dwight Howard from the Magic and was retained for the 2013-14 season as an assistant coach. However, the Lakers granted him permission to interview with other teams. Prior to joining the Lakers, Clifford spent five seasons with Orlando, working alongside Stan Van Gundy. During that five-year span, the Magic were 259-135 (.657) and reached the NBA Finals in 2009. Clifford also spent four seasons Harvick From page 1B they were putting away a garden hose. Drivers were allowed back to their pit stalls and crews given 15 minutes to assess and fix damage caused by the failure. Fox Sports announcer Chris Myers apologized to fans and drivers several times for the delay and problems. In a statement, Fox said it had suspended use of the overhead camera indefinitely. It said the drive rope that moves the camera back and forth failed and it had no immediate reason why. “A full investigation is planned,” the statement said. Orioles From page 1B ATHLETICS 4, GIANTS 1 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Josh Donaldson hit a two-run homer to back Dan Straily’s strong start, and the Oakland Athletics beat the San Francisco Giants 4-1 in the Bay Bridge Series opener. MARINERS 9, PADRES 0 SEATTLE (AP) — Aaron Harang threw a four-hitter, Jason Bay hit his first career leadoff homer and Michael Morse added a three-run shot as part of Seattle’s four-run first inning as the Mariners beat the San Diego Padres 9-0. as an assistant with the Rockets and three with the Knicks. He has worked in North Carolina before as an assistant coach for one year at East Carolina. The Bobcats fired Dunlap in April after just one season. Dunlap struggled with the transition from the college game to the NBA and game management. He often butted heads with his players, which is likely one of the reasons the Bobcats decided to go after an experienced NBA assistant like Clifford. Bobcats president of basketball operations Rod Higgins said in mid-April he and general manager Rich Cho met with the players and Dunlap before approaching owner Michael Jordan and asking him to make a coaching change. “The change was allowed,” Higgins said in April. Higgins said at the time player input was “a part of the process, but not the only indicator.” Higgins was asked in April what he wanted in a new coach. “We want to hire a great leader, (and) the player development aspect is still vitally important to us because of our youth,” Higgins said. “Obviously you want a fantastic X-and-O coach. Someone who can make our players better, and help us win games.” Kanaan earns first Indy 500 win INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Tony Kanaan had one more lap, one anticlimactic last lap under the yellow caution flag, to end 12 years of frustration in the Indianapolis 500. He flipped up his visor to wipe away tears as the crowd roared its approval, and then in Victory Lane gave his bride of two months a long kiss and poured the celebra- Hamlet B USINESS DIRECTORY Convenience Corner 801 Marlboro Street Raiders 582-2724 From page 1B took advantage of two miscues in their first atbat to take the lead against the Raiders. Lead-off hitter Garrett Suggs struck out but was able to reach first on a wild pitch. Nic Bullard appeared to have Suggs picked off first, but the throw was in the dirt, allowing Suggs to move to third and score on Lucas Scott’s sacrifice fly to left. Fuquay-Varina used two more errors to add to its advantage in the third. Bissette drew a walk and courtesy runner Jamarcus Burt moved around to third on another botched pickoff attempt. Joe Williams, making his first appearance in the series, ripped a double on the right-field line to score Burt. Bullard recovered to retire the next two batters before walking D.J. Burt and surrendering a tworun double to Daniels. After a balk, Daniels scored the Bengals’ fourth run of the frame on an error by James Buie. “It helped to have been down here before so we knew what we were coming into,” said FuquayVarina coach Milton Senter to the News and Observer. “We got our confidence back with the win last night, took advantage of some breaks early to get runs. And Jordan Bissette did exactly what we needed him to do on the mound.” The Raiders (28-3) had baserunners in the first three innings but were unable to capitalize. Bradley Brown singled with two outs in the first, but was stranded when Jacob Sears flew out to left. Taylor McLean opened the second with a single, but was forced out at second on a fielder’s choice on Buie’s attempted sacrifice bunt. Bissette then retired the next two batters on groundouts. Drew Butler and Brown drew two-out walks in the third, but were left on base as Bissette coaxed Sears to fly out to center. Fuquay-Varina put the game out of reach and stamped its ticket to the 4A state final series with seven runs in the fifth. D.J. Burt doubled and scored on single by Daniels, who advanced to third on a fielding error by McLean. Nick Yarbrough singled home Daniels and moved to third on two wild pitches. Nick Stuart walked to chase Bullard from the game. Brian Mitchell and Bissette drew walks from reliever Brandon Gibson, which forced in Yarbrough. After a strikeout and a fly out, Gibson walked Scott to bring send Stuart home. D.J. Burt wrapped up the scoring in the frame with a two-run single to extend the lead to 12-0. Before the series started, Young knew his team had to keep the top of Fuquay-Varina’s lineup in check. In Game 1, Suggs, Scott, D.J. Burt, Daniels and Yarbrough were a combined 3 for 17 with a run batted in. In the final two contests, the group was 15-of-32 with 14 RBIs. “We were able to do it in the first game,” Young said. “We didn’t do it in the last two games.” With one out in the bottom of the fifth and needing three runs to keep the contest going, Adam Sweatt reached first on a wild pitch after striking out. Following a pop out, Drew Butler doubled to send Sweatt to third, but Bissette closed out the contest by fanning Brown. “I really located my offspeed pitches well and was able to hit my spots with the fastball too,” said Bissette to the News and Observer. “I was able to get them to roll over on the fastball a lot.” — Sports editor Shawn Stinson can be reached at 910-997-3111, ext. 14, or by email at [email protected].

He is its champion at last, fittingly with a dose of good luck for a change. “I have to say, the last lap was the longest lap of my life,” Kanaan said. It was one of Indy’s most popular victories. The losers were pleased with the outcome, evidenced by a scene similar to rivals lining up to congratulate Dale Earnhardt when he finally won the Daytona 500 on his 20th try. Dario Franchitti, whose crash brought out the race-ending caution, stood grinning by his crumpled car, two thumbs up as Kanaan passed under yellow. “When I saw who was leading, it cheered me up a little bit,” said Franchitti, last year’s winner. “He’s a very, very deserving winner.” The fans thought so, too, standing on their Tony Kanaan feet, screaming “TK! TK! TK!” as he and team owner Jimmy Vasser went by during the traditional victory lap. It felt magical to Kanaan, like he had given the crowd at Indianapolis Motor Speedway a gift. “It means a lot to me because so many people, I could feel that they wanted me to win, and it’s such a selfish thing to do because what are they getting from it?” Kanaan said. “I’m the one who gets the trophy. I believed that this win was more for people out there than for me.

You can’t be put in a box — you are a free thinker. Others enjoy seeing how you work with concepts and apply them to your life. If you are single, you could form a close bond with a foreigner or someone who is very different from you. You’ll like learning about this person’s culture and ways. If you are attached, the two of you often speak about a dream trip; start planning it this year. AQUARIUS piques your interest. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your anger and frustration seem to bubble up. After listening to someone’s needs, you could feel put off. Do not respond if following through makes you uncomfortable. Make calls and reach out to a neighbor or sibling. Good news heads your way. Tonight: Hang out. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You will discover what is possible if you relax and become more forthcoming. Your appraisal of a personal matter encourages you to take a leap of faith. Be sure to do much-needed research. By afternoon, you’ll feel as though it is time to take action. Tonight: Make it easy. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Engage in a conversation with a partner. You might not come to an agreement easily. Take an overview and see what facts you are missing. Get to the bottom of a problem by taking in the whole picture. Suddenly, you could see the right path to take. Tonight: Use your imagination. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Others let you know what they want. The problem might be that you are not sure of your choice yet. In some way, you could feel as if someone is running right over you. Share your feelings with this person. Tonight: Chat with a partner or dear friend. Speak your mind. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You could be taken aback by someone’s efforts. You also might find that you are angry or frustrated with an older friend or boss. Why not address the issue directly? This person’s response could take you by surprise. Be prepared. Tonight: In the thick of a situation. Horoscope VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Have a talk with someone you respect, especially if this person is acting as if he or she is peeved. There probably is a good reason for this behavior. You won’t be able to work anything out until you know the problem. Count on your ingenuity. Tonight: Burn the midnight oil. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could view an important matter very differently from a partner. Listen to what this person shares. He or she means exactly what he or she says. You will have to be very charming and nurturing to surf this wave and come out unscathed. Tonight: You know what is best. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Sometimes you push so hard to have your way that it is difficult to come to terms with a different point of view. Try to listen more to a key person in your life. You both will be a lot happier as a result. Consider taking a walk in order to clear your mind. Tonight: At home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You might be finalizing some details regarding a purchase or balancing your finances. You will perk up considerably in the afternoon. Make calls, schedule meetings and — most importantly — catch up on a friend’s news. Tonight: Run errands on the way home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might want to rearrange your schedule in order to make time for an important conversation in the morning. Understand where others are coming from, and listen to their logic. Tempers run high, and you can do little to change what is going on. Tonight: At a favorite haunt. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You could be dragging in the morning and feel unsure as to which way you want to go. Alleviate a problem by talking it out; otherwise, you could be walking on eggshells. You have a greater chance of clearing the issue later in the day. Tonight: Make yourself happy, first. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Zero in on your priorities. You could be surprised by how strong-willed you need to be in order to get your point across. Later, you might want to spend some quiet time dealing with a project or going over this conversation in your head. Tonight: Catch some extra zzz’s.
