No execution for McGilberry
■ Supreme Court orders
re-sentencing of death-row
inmate from Jackson County
By JACK ELLIOTT JR.
The Associated Press
JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme
Court has dismissed the death sentence of
Stephen Virgil McGilberry and ordered the
Jackson County Circuit Court to re-sentence
him to life in prison without parole.
The justices on Thursday issued the order
without comment, having issued a blistering
Coast
braces
for Rita
rebuke a week ago of a U.S.
Supreme Court ruling this
year that it was unconstitutional to execute those who
committed capital offenses
when they were under 18.
That case dealt with Kelvin
Dycus, who was 17 when he
participated in the 1996 slayMcGilberry
ing of an elderly Rosedale
woman. The justices called
the murder of 76-year-old Mary Lee Pittman
a particularly brutal one and deserving of the
death penalty.
McGilberry, Dycus, Ronald Chris Foster,
Roderick Eskridge and William Joseph Holly
were all under 18 when they committed capital murder and were sentenced to death.
They were saved from lethal injection by the
U.S. Supreme Court-issued ban.
A dozen of the states, including Mississippi,
had juvenile offenders on death row.
Orders to re-sentence Eskridge and Holly
are expected shortly.
McGilberry was 16 when he was sentenced
to death in 1996 in Jackson County.
District Attorney Tony Lawrence said he

COMMAND CENTRAL Fight over
insurance
could extend
beyond Coast
By VICKI SMITH
The Associated Press
BAY ST. LOUIS — Mississippi was placed under a state
of emergency and a voluntary
evacuation was ordered for residents in low areas of Hancock
County on Thursday as Hurricane Rita appeared to edge
slightly eastward.
“I urge all Mississippians to
please take this storm seriously,” Gov. Haley Barbour said in
a statement. “Now is the time
to prepare yourself, your family and your friends.”
Conditions were already getting bad in Waveland, a community that was virtually leveled by Hurricane Katrina 31⁄2
weeks ago. Waves were breaking over one coastal road as the
surf quickly grew rough, skies
blackened and wind blasted
sand from the beach.
Locally, Jackson County Civil Defense officials said that
even though Hurricane Rita
will likely miss Jackson County, the area is expected to get
some effects from the hurricane.
A coastal flood watch has
been issued with tides expected
to be three to five feet above
normal, with two to three inches of rain and 25 to 30 mph
winds with possible gusts to 35
mph starting Thursday afternoon.
Residents in low lying areas
should begin planning to move
to higher ground and securing
alternative sheltering arrangements. Because high winds are
expected, tents and temporary
shelters should be secured
tightly and debris piles, especially those containing sheet
metal, should be covered or tied
down.
“This is just precautionary at
this time,” said Jackson County Civil Defense/Emergency

Larger than some Mississippi towns,
Camp Gautier cares for hurricane helpers
By JOHN SURRATT
The Mississippi Press
GAUTIER — They call it “Camp Gautier.”
In the three weeks since Hurricane Katrina socked the Mississippi Coast, Gautier
High School has undergone a transformation and assumed a new name, the incident
command post, and has become a community of more than 1,000 people — larger than
some Mississippi towns.
The gym where the Gautier High basketball team took on area schools to the cheers
of adoring crowds is now a large dormitory
with sleeping accommodations for about
1,000 people assisting in Jackson County’s
recovery.
In classrooms where students learned
about history, Shakespeare and the marvels Adrienne Starr with Able Fire Equipment checks a load of
of science, planners, mappers and volunteer clothes at one of the company’s mobile laundry trailers,
See CAMP, Page 11-A which are used to wash the clothes of aid workers.
MOSS POINT — The insurance adjuster
took one look at the mildewed walls and buckled floors in Jerry and Cynthia Wilson’s waterlogged home and issued an immediate ruling:
The wreckage caused by Hurricane Katrina
wasn’t his company’s responsibility.
The damage, the Allstate Corp. agent told the
couple, was caused not by wind or rain, but
by flooding — and they had no flood insurance.
Not so fast, say the Wilsons and thousands of
Gulf Coast homeowners in similar straits. They,
along with regulators, politicians and consumer
advocates, are already girding for an increasingly contentious battle with billions of dollars
in property claims on the line. And similar battles may take place in Texas if Hurricane Rita
causes similar havoc when it rams the coast
line this weekend.
“It may take a team of New York lawyers to
get down here and straighten this out,” Cynthia
Wilson said.

Mississippians
want ‘fair deal’
from insurance
By AMANDA CREEL
The Mississippi Press
PASCAGOULA — “A fair deal” is what most
residents of the Mississippi Gulf Coast are hoping for as the wheeling and dealing begins with
insurance companies in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Signs on every residential street in Pascagoula
display insurance information and street
addresses to help insurance company representatives find the homes and the remnants of
homes effected by the wrath of the Category 4
hurricane.

Ocean Springs schools ready for students to return Monday
By ALLISON MATHER
The Mississippi Press
OCEAN SPRINGS — Both faculty and facilities in Ocean Springs
School District are ready for the
return of students Monday morning, superintendent Anna Hurt
said.
“It’s just going to be sort of like
the first day of school, again,” she
said.
“Busses will run their regular
routes as scheduled,” she said, with

the exception of the Belle Fountaine area, the north end of Lovers
Lane, Sans Souci, Ashley Place and
Waters Edge.
“The cafeterias will be open at all
of the schools,” Hurt said. She
explained the federal government
will allow schools to feed children
lunch at no cost until Sept. 30.
“The Ocean Springs School District would like to express appreciation for the support and encouragement we’re gotten from the
community as a whole,” Hurt said.
The district, she said, has made
great strides in temporarily repairing the nearly $6 million in structural damage from Katrina. “All of
the roof work has been temporarily
repaired.”
“(N.E.) Taconi (Elementary) will
be working again without the gymnasium,” she said. Wind caused significant roof damage to that part
of the school.
“We do have plans to get in four
portable classrooms, or two doubles, in the months to come to help
with the space there.”
Hurt said Oak Park Elementary
was one of the most heavily-damaged schools in the district. Ten
portable classrooms have been
ordered to accommodate students
at that campus.
“They will be combining classes in
order to facilitate the students so
we don’t have to transfer them to
other schools (in the district),” she

than a month after suffering a
stroke and mild heart attack,
their mother was coming home.
The 78-year-old widow of civil

on Aug. 16.
Since then, she has made significant progress, said her
daughters, Bernice and Yolanda
King, and her physician, Dr.
Maggie Mermin, and she was
released from the hospital
Thursday.
“Our prayers have been

Baptist Convention gearing
up to oppose on-land casinos
By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS
The Associated Press
JACKSON — The state’s largest religious
group — the Mississippi Baptist Convention —
is trying to thwart any move by officials to let
casinos build on land, saying hurricane damage shouldn’t be used as a reason to expand
the gambling industry.
State law says casinos can be built only
over the waters of the Mississippi River or
the Gulf of Mexico. Most of the 13 Gulf Coast
casinos were severely damaged when Hurricane Katrina blew ashore Aug. 29. A few of the
hulking casino barges were tossed on shore by
the powerful storm surge that approached 30
feet; others had jagged holes ripped in their
sides.
Some gaming company executives say they
want to rebuild on land; others say they relocate on floating barges. A debate on the politically volatile issue is expected during a special legislative session that starts Tuesday.
Gov. Haley Barbour set the session and said
he would put the casino issue on the agenda,
but he still hasn’t taking a public stand on
whether gambling halls should be allowed to
move on land — even if it’s only a few hundred
feet. If Barbour did not want legislators to
debate the issue, he could leave it off the
agenda.
“The governor’s position is still that he’s
going to wait to receive the Gaming Commission’s report,” Barbour spokesman Pete Smith
said Thursday. “He’ll have a position then.”
Gaming Commission executive director Larry Gregory said commission chairman Jerry
St. Pé could speak to Barbour in the next few
days — possibly by today. Gregory said he
does not know what the three-member commission will recommend.
Jimmy Porter, executive director of the Mississippi Baptist Convention’s Christian Action
Commission, said in news release Thursday
that the convention opposes any form of gam-
bling and the “terrible human tragedy” of
Hurricane Katrina should not be used to expand casino interests.
“The fear of our constituents is that once the
casinos are land-based, attempts to move
inward to other locations will follow,” Porter
said.
About one Mississippian in every four is a
Baptist. Although the convention doesn’t dictate policy positions to its 2,100 member
churches, any organized move by Baptist leaders could significantly influence what happens at the Capitol.
Porter said any proposed changes in gambling laws should be put on statewide ballots
to let voters decide.
House Gaming Committee Chairman Bobby
Moak, D-Bogue Chitto, said he told Baptist
Convention leaders this week that they should
be careful in asking for a statewide vote.
“If it passes, then what kind of animal have
you got by the tail?” Moak said.
Moak said he’s willing to consider on-land
casinos only in communities where casinos
already exist along the coast and along the
Mississippi River. He said he is listening to
gambling opponents and supporters as he prepares for the special session.
“I’m going to try to politically mold something that is workable among those varying
opinions,” Moak said.
St. Pé and Gregory were in Las Vegas this
past week to talk to casino executives about
whether they plan to rebuild along the Mississippi coast. St. Pé said “there are differences of opinion” within the industry about
going on land.
Porter said the Baptist Convention is asking
its members to call or write legislators to work
against land-based casinos.
Harrison County supervisors on Wednesday passed a resolution asking lawmakers to
let coast casinos go 1,500 feet inland from
their current locations.

Drug, alcohol-related arrests on the rise
From Staff Reports
PASCAGOULA — Drug and alcohol-related arrests are beginning to increase as Jackson
County begins returning to normal in the wake
of Hurricane Katrina, Sheriff Mike Byrd said.
Authorities arrested 45 people during the
past 24-hour period, adding that six of those
arrests were for drug-related offenses, Byrd
said Thursday. Officers also made seven DUI
arrests in the county and arrested four others
people for outstanding warrants. Officers made
17 drug arrests and arrested four for DUI on
Wednesday.
Byrd said the increased availability of drugs
and alcohol is responsible for the rise in
arrests, adding that officers will continue to be
on the lookout for suspicious activity during
patrol.
“We will be patrolling the neighborhoods
and checking people for IDs,” Byrd said. “If
we find anybody doesn’t belong there, we will
tell them to leave.”

PASCAGOULA — Jackson
County officials announced
the county’s land records
office will open at 8 a.m.
Monday in temporary offices
located in the Fair Hall at
the Jackson County Fairgrounds in Pascagoula.
“It’s a great sign for the
county,” said Chancery Clerk
Terry Miller. “The land records office is the commerce
center for Jackson County.
H av i n g ac c e ss to th e se
records makes it possible for
our citizens to apply for
loans, do title searches and
issue bills of sale.”
The land records office’s
phone number is (228) 7693131, and the fax number is
(228) 769-3135. The office
will be open for all services
previously available at the
Brumfield building.
“Two days before Hurricane Katrina hit Mississippi, the Jackson County Board
of Supervisors moved over
4,000 land record books, dating back to the mid-1800s, to
a safe area away from the
storm,” Miller said, “We
brought them to the fair-
ground this week and unloaded them. Although the
public will have access to all
records, it will not be as convenient in the temporary
location as it was in the
Brumfield building. We are
asking the public for their
patience and understanding.”
The Jackson County Chancery Court Department, including the Chancery Court
Administrator’s Office, also
has been relocated to the
Civic Center at the Jackson
County Fairgrounds. Court
instruments can be received
and filed beginning Monday.
Emergency requests can be
forwarded to the chancellors,
through their court administrator, for immediate attention.
These departments can be
reached at (228) 696-6264
and (228) 696-6268.
All Jackson County Chancery Court files and records
were damaged by Hurricane
Katrina and are being relocated for restoration and
preservation.
These records will be unavailable for an undetermined amount of time.

The Mississippi Press
PASCAGOULA — The music of a storm
played a melody in a Pascagoula man’s
head.
Like many residents who were neighbors
of neighbors of beach front property owners,
Don Smith lost most everything when Hurricane Katrina pushed the Gulf of Mexico
across lower Pascagoula and through his
home several blocks from the beach.
The storm did not respect his talents as
an artist, actor and musician, and chased
him to higher ground within his one-story
home on Sarazin Avenue.
“It pretty much destroyed everything I
owned except for this one guitar,” he said,
holding an acoustic signed by 3 Doors Down
guitarist Matt Roberts as a gift to Smith.
After the water receded, Smith began to
write for his own therapy to come to grips
with the devastating catastrophe he survived.
But his tuneful tale of woe has a happy
ending.
“It’s really about starting over,” he said.
“It’s what I’m doing and a lot of other people
are doing.”
Smith is an art teacher at Vancleave High
School and has appeared on local commercials and in seven movies including “The
Insider” and “J.F.K.” He may be best known
for being the artist who created the famous
bust of Sen. Trent Lott that was stolen from
its pedestal in front of Trent Lott Middle
School a few years ago.
After he wrote “Hurricane Katrina,” he
played it by candlelight for his neighbors.
They encouraged him to take it to a radio
station, which is how he met Tim Lee, owner of AM 1580 WPMP.
Lee heard the compact disc single of the
song and invited Smith to perform on his
show, which is being broadcast live from
LaFont Inn each day.
In shorts and flip-flops Thursday, Smith
accompanied himself on Robert’s guitar as
he sang about heartbreak and rebirth. Folks
at surrounding tables occassionally looked
up from their lunch in the hotel dining room
as he played.
“It takes a lot of wind to change a man, it
takes a lot of water to wash away old
dreams. Broke those chains I was wearing
from the wall of a hurricane,” he sang.
Lee became a fan at first listen.
“It’s a great song,” Lee said. “It sums up
what a lot of us are thinking.”
Smith’s not sure what he’ll do with the
song, although he knows he doesn’t want to
profit from it. His hope is that someone
may use it for their hurricane relief efforts.
Just writing the song as been healing for
him, he said. The storm pushed him out of
his safety net of Jackson County, and made
him realize that he needs to push himself
more to accomplish his dreams of music,
art and movies on a larger scale.
After surviving Katrina, life’s challenges
will be easier to overcome.
“What the heck? What else could possibly
be so scary out there?” he said. “I’m doing
what I wanted to do, playing on the radio
and talking to reporters. I’m living the
dream.”

County offers debris removal assistance
From Staff Reports
Michelle Rolls/Mobile Register
Damage from the landfall of Hurricane Katrina can be
seen on the west end of Dauphin Island, Ala. Saturday.
Hurricane Katrina shifted part of Dauphin Island landward and cut a mile-wide canal across its western tip,
completely destroying a long line of resort homes that
faced the Gulf of Mexico, a geological survey shows.
PASCAGOULA — Debris

Survey: Katrina
shifted Dauphin
Island landward
By GARRY MITCHELL
Mobile Register
DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. —
Hurricane Katrina shifted part
of Dauphin Island landward and
cut a mile-wide canal across its
western tip, completely destroying a long line of resort homes
that faced the Gulf of Mexico, a
geological survey shows.
Property owners hope for federal assistance in rebuilding,
including repairing the eroded
beaches, even though the fragile
west end was battered less than
a year earlier by Hurricane Ivan.
FEMA and federal flood insurance representatives met with
residents at a town meeting
Wednesday night.
“A lot of people are tentatively on hold about rebuilding while
dealing with the insurance,” real
estate agent Beth Cox said.
Even though Katrina’s landfall was 90 miles to the west of
the island, it still swept away
or damaged more than 100 vacation homes on the sand-starved
western end. Some streets were
completely wiped out, making
it hard to inventory the missing houses.
Most of the island’s 1,500 to
1,700 homes survived. But Katrina’s damage came after Ivan
destroyed 44 homes and damaged 110 a year ago when it
reshaped the west end and flattened dunes.
Dr. Abby Sallenger, a research
oceanographer at the U.S. Geological Survey in St. Petersburg,
Fla., who is studying Katrina’s
damage, said he was not surprised by the island erosion.
Many of the gulfside homes
were completely swept away, he
said, with waves now over their
foundations. Others were left
leaning in the direction of the
storm’s windy path.
“And it was not even remotely a direct hit,” Sallenger said in
a telephone interview Thursday.
The island’s forested east end,
with historic Fort Gaines and
more homes, had less damage
than the western tip.
This 14-mile-long island has
survived centuries of storms
since the French occupied it in
1699. Back then, it served until
1717 as a port to Fort Louis, the
first capital of the vast Louisiana
territory.
Examining aerial photos of
Katrina damage, Sallenger said
the island at the mouth of
Mobile Bay earlier had been
“severely impacted” by Hurricane Federic in 1979 and again
last September by Ivan.
The 1.2 miles wide breach
from Katrina on the unpopulated western tip is about five feet
deep, according to state Conservation Marine Resources officials.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
spokesman Patrick Robbins said
a settlement in a lawsuit filed by
the property owners over the
dredging has not been approved
by a court. It calls for an independent study on whether the
dredging has had any effect on
the island.
The corps now plans “emergency dredging” of the Mobile
Harbor over the next four
months to remove about four
million cubic yards of material
swept in by Katrina on Aug. 29.

Rain returns to New Orleans as Rita approaches
By MICHELLE ROBERTS
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — In a grim opening salvo
from Hurricane Rita, a steady rain began falling
Thursday on New Orleans for the first time since
Katrina laid waste to the city, and engineers rushed
to shore up the broken levees for fear of another
ruinous round of flooding.
The forecast called for 3 to 5 inches of rain in
New Orleans in the coming days. That is dangerously close to the amount engineers said could
send floodwaters pouring back into neighborhoods
that have been dry for less than a week.
The storm took a sharper-than-expected turn
to the right on Thursday, setting it on a course
that could spare Houston and nearby Galveston a
direct hit. But that raised the risk that the hurricane could strike much closer to New Orleans.
“Right now, it’s a wait-and-see and hope-for-thebest,” Army Corps of Engineers spokesman Mitch
Frazier said a few hours before the National Guard
cut off all access into New Orleans.
He said the forecast brought renewed urgency to
efforts to shore up levees with sandbags and bring
in more portable pumps. The corps also installed
60-foot sections of metal across some of the city’s
AP
canals to protect against storm surges.
The lack of rain since Hurricane Katrina ripped
through the city more than three weeks ago has
been one of the few blessings for New Orleans.
On Thursday, relief workers at Mardi Gras World,
Nov. 30. But with conditions in the atmosphere and Atlantic ripe for storm development, there could be more.
Only once, since record-keeping began in
1851, have there been 21 tropical storms
and hurricanes in the Atlantic. That was in
1933 when forecasters didn’t regularly name
storms.
What’s more, a storm name is retired if it
causes widespread damage and deaths. So if
there is a deadly Hurricane Alpha, what is it
replaced with when it’s retired?
“We don’t know. It will go to the Swahili
alphabet or something else,” joked Jim
Lushine, severe weather expert at the National Weather Service in Miami.
When old names are retired, new names
have to be drafted in to a database maintained specifically for Atlantic Ocean storms,
said Mark Oliver, spokesman for the World
Meteorological Organization in Geneva,
which maintains the database.
“There’s certain specifications which they
have to meet,” Oliver said. “They have to be
fairly easily remembered, they’ve got to be in
alphabetical order.”
The names are proposed by national
weather services, and also takes gender balance into account to ensure that storms rotate
between male and female names.
But other regions take a different approach. In Asia, storms may be given names
of people, but also of flowers or other nonhuman beings, Oliver said. Japan does not
participate in this system, preferring instead
to number each storm chronologically starting anew each year.
WMO says it is sensitive to problems
caused by particularly infamous hurricanes
on people who share the same name, but
said national committees ultimately decide on
what types of names should be applied.
Currently, there are six separate 21-name
lists and each of them is used every six years
in a rotation. They don’t include names that
begin with q, u, x, y and z because there
aren’t enough names starting with those letters.
Katrina refugee murdered near Chattanooga
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.
(AP) — A restaurant cook and
dishwasher from Metairie, La.,
has become the first known
Katrina refugee murdered in
a host community.
Don Maurice Airline, 24, was
found dead on a secluded road
with five gunshots to his head.
Chattanooga police are considering the possibility that someone killed him to steal the relief
money the Red Cross gave him.
Detective R. Kenneth Freeman said he was sorry the
shooting Saturday happened
in Chattanooga, a city where
the Red Cross, churches and
social agencies are helping
hundreds of Katrina refugees.
Freeman said Airline was
the only homicide victim he
knew of among the hundreds of
thousands of Katrina evacuees.
Another 1 million refugees are
fleeing ahead of Hurricane
Rita.
Airline’s mother, Sheila Airline, 41, described the murder
as “just senseless.”
“For someone to take my
child’s life, they robbed him. I
know they robbed him because
the Red Cross gave him money
and the detective can’t find it,”
she said Thursday in a telephone interview from Kenner,
La.
Sheila Airline said she
stayed with relatives in Louisiana when she evacuated
Aug. 28.
“This is how God had it
planned,” she said. “He was
evacuated out of the storm and
out of the storm he gets killed.”
Airline said her son’s funeral
was being delayed until at least
Monday because of Hurricane
Rita.
Investigators found five
handgun shell casings with Airline’s body, less than a mile
from a Red Cross shelter where
he had stayed.
Airline left a Chattanooga
nightclub with at least two
men and a woman hours before
his body was spotted early Saturday on a weedy roadside in
south Chattanooga, Freeman
said.
No one has been charged, but
police are getting different stories from the people who
accompanied Airline. Freeman

Orleans, the storm was expected to bring 15 to 20
inches of rain to southwestern Louisiana. Gov.
Kathleen Blanco resorted to campaign tactics,
recording a telephone message that was delivered
to more than 400,000 residents along the southern
edge of the state.
“Rita has Louisiana in her sights,” Blanco said at
a news conference. “Head north. You cannot go
east, you cannot go west. If you know the local
roads that go north, take those.”
As for those who refuse to leave, she said: “Perhaps they should write their Social Security numbers on their arms with indelible ink.”
National Guard and medical units were put on
standby. Helicopters were being positioned, and
search-and-rescue boats from the state wildlife
department were staged on high ground on the
edge of Rita’s projected path. Blanco said she also
asked for 15,000 more federal troops.
“Prepare your family and prepare your house,”
she warned. “I’m urging Louisiana citizens to take
this storm very seriously.”
Forecasters said the storm was expected to come
ashore on the Texas coast and turn north along a
path not far from the Louisiana state line. It was a
chilling prediction for the town of Lake Charles, not
far from the border.

forecasters and coastal residents may have to
break out their Greek dictionaries if the
Atlantic hurricane season keeps up its frantic pace.
There are only four names left for tropical
storms and hurricanes this year: Stan, Tammy, Vince and Wilma. After that, names
switch to the 24 letters of the Greek alphabet:
Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and so on
through Omega, if needed.
That has never happened before in roughly 60 years of regularly named Atlantic
storms.
“If we get up into that league, we’ll have
issues larger than naming these storms,”
said Frank Lepore, spokesman for the
National Hurricane Center in Miami. “The
new phrase will be hurricane fatigue. Let’s
coin that right now.”
So far this season, there have been 17
named storms. Forecasters expect a total of
18 to 21 when the six-month season ends

WASHINGTON (AP) —
Lawmakers introduced legislation Wednesday to limit the
liability of volunteers working
on disaster recovery efforts.
Introduced by U.S. Sen. John
Cornyn, R-Texas, and co-sponsored by Sen. Trent Lott, RMiss., the Good Samaritan Liability Improvement and Volunteer Encouragement Act of
2005 would provide special protections for disaster relief workers.
Those include allowing professionals to volunteer using
licenses from their home state
regardless of where a disaster
occurred and protecting volunteers who aren’t working for a
specific nonprofit organization
from liability.
Under the act, nonprofits
wouldn’t be held liable for acts
committed by their volunteers
unless the organization willfully disregarded or was recklessly indifferent. Also, donors
of goods and equipment wouldn’t be responsible for harm
caused by donating those items
unless they were reckless.
“The United States is a generous nation, and we’ve seen
ample evidence of that selfless
giving since Katrina’s deadly
impact as people from throughout our nation are giving of
their time and talents to help
Katrina’s victims,” Lott said in
a statement.
“Yet these men and women
who work to protect life and
property need protection, too,”
he said. “We must make sure
our relief workers can operate
unimpeded without fear of
unreasonable liability.”
Co-sponsors include Sens.
Kay Bailey Hutchison, RTexas; David Vitter, R-La.;
Charles Grassley, R-Iowa; and
John Thune, R-S.D.

Expected Vatican ban on gay theology
students agitates American church
By RACHEL ZOLL
AP Religion Writer
Word that a soon-to-be-released Vatican
document will signal homosexuals are unwelcome in Roman Catholic seminaries even if
they are celibate has devastated gay clergy
— and raised doubts among conservatives
about whether an outright ban can be
enforced.
A Vatican official, who spoke on condition
of anonymity because the document has not
been released, said Thursday that the
upcoming “instruction” from the Vatican’s
Congregation for Catholic Education will
reaffirm the church’s belief that homosexuals should not be ordained.
In recent decades, Vatican officials have
stated several times that gays should not
become priests because their sexual orientation is “intrinsically disordered” and makes
them unsuitable for ministry.
The latest document is scheduled to be
distributed within weeks, just as an evaluation of all 229 American seminaries gets
under way under the direction of the same
Vatican agency developing the seminary
statement. The review, called an Apostolic
Visitation, was ordered by Pope John Paul II
in response to the U.S. clergy sex abuse crisis which erupted in 2002. Among the questions the evaluators will ask is whether
“there is evidence of homosexuality in the
seminary,” according to the agency’s guide for
the inspections.
The Rev. Thomas Krenik, who taught for
10 years in St. Paul Seminary in Minnesota
and wrote the guidebook “Formation for
Priestly Celibacy,” worries that a blanket
ban on gay priest-candidates will re-create
the very conditions the Vatican wants to

Senator Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., right, congratulates
Judge John Roberts on Capitol Hill Thursday in Washington, after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 135 to send his nomination as Chief Justice of the United
States to the Senate floor where a final vote is expected
next week.
Roberts wins committee
approval, heads to
Senate for confirmation
By DAVID ESPO
AP Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON — John
Roberts’ nomination as chief justice cleared a Senate committee
on a bipartisan vote of 13-5
Thursday, with next week’s confirmation so certain that Republicans and Democrats turned
increasing attention to President
Bush’s choice to fill a second
Supreme Court vacancy.
Before the committee vote on
Roberts, Sen. Herb Kohl, D-Wis.,
said, “I will vote my hopes and
not my fears, and I will vote to
confirm him.” Kohl was one of
three Democrats on the Judiciary Committee who supported
Roberts’ nomination along with
all 10 Republicans on the panel.
“I don’t see how anybody can
justify a vote against Judge
Roberts, unless they want to nitpick certain areas that you can
nitpick on anybody,” said Orrin
Hatch, R-Utah.
Five Democrats voted against
Roberts, questioning his commitment to civil rights and expressing concern that he might
overturn the 1973 court ruling
that established the right to abortion.
“The values and perspectives
displayed over and over again in
his record cast doubt on his view
of voting rights, women’s rights,
civil rights and disability rights,”
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, DMass., said of the 50-year-old
appeals court judge and former
Reagan administration lawyer.
The Democratic support for
Roberts marked a stinging defeat
for the liberal groups that are
lobbying energetically against
confirmation. Without mentioning names, Sen. Barack Obama,
D-Ill., criticized them in remarks
on the Senate floor, accusing
them of “kneejerk, unbending
and what I consider to be unfair
attacks” on lawmakers who disagreed with them.
Even so, one prominent conservative said he was unimpressed with the level of bipartisanship in committee.
“We’re supposed to think the
Democrats are being magnanimous? Give me a break,” said
Leonard Leo of the Federalist
Society. He noted that several
Supreme Court nominees of presidents of both parties have gained
overwhelming bipartisan support
in the past two decades.
The full Senate is to debate
Roberts’ nomination next week,
with all 55 Republicans expected
to support him. A final vote is
expected Thursday, in enough
time to allow him to succeed the
late William H. Rehnquist and
become the 17th chief justice before the court begins a new term
on Oct. 3.
The committee session over,
Democrats not on the panel began making their positions
known.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton,
D-N.Y., a potential presidential
contender in 2008, said she will
oppose the nomination. In prepared remarks, she said, “Desire
to maintain the already fragile
Supreme Court majority for civil
rights, voting rights and women’s
rights outweighs the respect I
have for Judge Roberts’ intellect,
character and legal skills.”
There was scant sparring in
the Judiciary Committee as 18
senators took turns reading prepared statements laying out their
positions.
What passed for suspense had
dissipated Wednesday, when Sen.
Patrick Leahy of Vermont, the
panel’s senior Democrat, announced he would support the
nomination.
With Roberts’ confirmation a
certainty, several senators on the
committee were looking ahead to
Bush’s selection of a replacement
for retiring Justice Sandra Day
O’Connor.

eradicate.
“For some men who happened to be homosexually oriented, they would go further in
the closet,” Krenik said. “That would be my
fear, that this could become an even worse
problem.”
A gay American priest, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he feared
reprisals from church leaders, said he and
other gay clergy and seminarians felt
“absolute horror” when they heard about
the anticipated ban.
“I’ve spoken to gay priests who feel demoralized. I’ve heard straight priests say that
they’re embarrassed by it. I’ve heard priests
both straight and gay seriously considering
leaving,” he said. “They couldn’t believe that
after centuries of either explicit or implicit
welcoming of celibate gay clergy that the
church would turn its back on them.”

‘Fair deal’
Steve Helber/AP
Jerry Wilson loads a wheelbarrow with debris taken from his home in Pascagoula.
Wilson’s home was flooded during Hurricane Katrina. He did not have flood insurance, and his insurance company told him they would not pay for any water damage in his home.
Insurance
From Page 1-A
The battle hinges on what, from a distance,
might seem straightforward. Were homes and
businesses in Katrina’s path battered by the
hurricane’s 145 mph winds or a storm surge
that sent Gulf waters up to 30 feet high rushing
more than a mile inland, well beyond designated flood zones?
Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood argued
in a lawsuit filed last week against Allstate,
State Farm Insurance Cos., Nationwide Mutual
Insurance Co., Mississippi Farm Bureau Insurance and other insurers operating in the state
that they should pay for all Katrina damages,
whether caused by wind, wind-driven water or
storm surge flooding.
Insurers say their policies don’t cover floods
and that’s what Katrina’s storm surge was —
water pushed by the force of the wind. Flood
insurance is offered separately by the federal
government.
Homeowners bought their insurance policies
“for the primary purpose of insuring against
any damage that could possibly result from hurricanes originating from the Gulf of Mexico,”
the suit says.
“This wasn’t Flood Katrina. This was Hurricane Katrina,” attorney general’s spokesman
Jacob Ray says.
The lawsuits aren’t likely to end there.
Richard Scruggs, a lawyer from nearby Pascagoula known for extracting huge settlements
from tobacco and asbestos manufacturers, was
among those whose home was damaged. Scruggs says he will lead homeowners in challenging
what he says are insurers’ deceptive business
practices.
Insurers are trying to “dine and dodge,” Scruggs says.
The insurance industry — already looking at
losses that could reach $60 billion — says a
ruling in Hood’s favor would be financially
ruinous and could turn insurance regulation
on its head.
Hood’s lawsuit “threatens to undermine the
insurance industry’s financial stability and its
ability to respond not only to its obligations
arising out of Katrina, but also its ability to
respond to other claim obligations in Mississippi and around the U.S.,” State Farm
spokesman Dick Luedke said.
Even if they prevail, it’s un-clear how insurers
would fare against individual homeowners.
“My guess is that it is going to be a mixed
result. I think the insurance companies are
going to lose a lot more than they expect, both in
terms of public opinion and in terms of actually losing in court,” said J. Robert Hunter, director of insurance at the Consumer Federation of
America and former administrator of the
national flood insurance program.
From Page 1-A
is one of many in Pascagoula
with such a sign. She is still
waiting for a visit from an insurance adjuster.
“We just hope they will give
us a fair deal,” said Faye McIntosh of Pascagoula.
Across the Gulf Coast, insurance companies are becoming a
target or scorn and legal action
as they pay some claims, but
deny others: The basis for the
decision being whether a home
was damaged by hurricane force
winds, or hurricane-driven
storm surge.
The Mississippi Attorney General’s office has filed suit against
a number of insurance companies it alleges are forcing homeowners to sign documents stating their homes were damaged
by storm surge in order to get an
advance on their claims. Pascagoula attorney Richard Scruggs also filed suit against the
insurance companies for denying claims to residents who lost
their homes to Katrina’s storm
surge.
The Mississippi Department
of Insurance and some Gulf
Coast lawyers say there are
some steps that individuals can
take to insure they are ready to
work through the insurance settlement process.
Patience is one of the first
things that all those affected by
the hurricane should have said
Lee Harrell, Mississippi’s deputy commissioner of insurance.
People making claims with
their insurance companies
should also take pictures of all
damage before repairs and
cleanup are done and then keeping receipts for all repairs.
“First things first, get a copy
of your policy. The policy is the
contract, so you have to start
with their policy and what your
policy does,” said Ed Taylor, an
attorney with Daniel, Coker,
Horton and Bell.
People should be aware that
individual policies differ.
One of the most important
issues for people to grasp is
flooding. A question to ask is,
how are they proving that the
water came first, he said.
Then take steps to find out

if you can prove what happened
to your home such as if the
wind destroyed your house
before the floodwaters ever
reached.
“Make some kind of notes
about how it was damaged: By
wind or water. Are there witnesses that saw the damage?
Was it torn up by the wind
long before the water,” Taylor
said.
Once the adjuster comes and
inspects your home be aware
that you do not have to agree
with them and you can always
get a second opinion from a
contractor.
“If you think that someone is
low-balling you , it is just like
going to the doctor you will
want to get a second opinion,”
Taylor said.
Harrell said it is also important for people to realize that
by accepting upfront payment
from the insurance company
you are not saying you agree
with the proposed settlement.
“You can negotiate with the
insurance company and you
need to have the adjuster explain why they come up with
value they are giving you,”
Harrell said.
One good ways to prove the
value of you home is through
an independent appraisal or
through tax records, he said.

Management Director Butch
Loper. “Due to the unpredictable nature of tropical systems, we want our residents to
begin planning and to closely
monitor television and radio for
updated information.”
“There’s something brewing
for sure,” said Richard
Grayson, 76, who has been living in a tent and RV in Waveland along with his friend, Tom
Elliott, since Katrina.
The men packed just in case
the storm got worse, but
weren’t in a hurry to leave,
even after hearing calls to evacuate delivered by megaphone
from a passing car.
“Where does one go? You
don’t. You stay,” Grayson said.
“We came down here prepared
to rough it, and frankly I don’t
like to go somewhere and
impose on people.”
In Pearlington, Claude Miller
and his wife, Cookie, had no
way to leave.
“We have no transportation,
no nothing. We couldn’t go
anywhere if we had anywhere,”
he said. “My wife, she’s wanting
to go. But where you going to
go? It’s just a mess.”
The latest predictions show
Rita, a Category 4 storm
marching west-northwest
across the Gulf of Mexico, could
make landfall late Friday or
early Saturday. Rita made a
sharper-than-expected turn to
the right Thursday afternoon,
and it appeared as if the storm
might come ashore near Port
Arthur, Texas, or Lake Charles,
La.
The Mississippi Emergency
Management agency said residents should prepare for the
possibility the hurricane could
cause heavy rains, flooding and
even tornadoes once it makes
landfall.
Lt. Gov. Amy Tuck issued the
emergency declaration at the
request of Barbour, who was in
Washington meeting with congressional and administration
officials about ongoing recovery efforts.
Hancock County urged residents in areas that normally
flood during heavy rains or
high tides to move inland. A
similar call went out to displaced residents and work
crews living in mobile homes
and tents.

Taylor asks Bush for probe
of slow response to Katrina
By DAVID PACE
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Two Gulf Coast
Democrats asked President Bush on
Thursday to support formation of an independent commission to investigate the
slow federal response to Hurricane Katrina.
Reps. Gene Taylor of Mississippi and
Charlie Melancon of Louisiana said in a
letter to Bush that a nonpartisan investigation is needed along the lines of the
independent panel that investigated the
Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on New
York and Washington.
“It is abundantly clear that the preparations and response to Katrina were lacking,” the lawmakers wrote. “How they were
lacking and who should be held accountable are questions that should be asked
and answered as honestly as possible.”
Taylor and Melancon said the “real work
of uncovering the failures that compounded the Katrina tragedy must be taken out

of the hands of the politicians and partisan
committees in Washington and put in the

Taylor and Melancon were the only
Democrats who participated Thursday in
the first hearing by a special House committee created to investigate the Katrina
response. The panel originally was intended as a bipartisan House-Senate committee, but Democratic leaders refused to
appoint any members to the panel because
it is controlled by Republicans.

agencies work to provide
emergency relief to county residents.
The activities and workers
at Gautier High School are
part of a program called the
incident command system, a
mechanism to coordinate
emergency activities developed
by California and National
Forest Service officials that
was born out of the annual
battles with forest fires that
damage the West Coast.
“ICS has been in the military for years,” said Jim Parrott, Pinole, Calif., fire chief
and deputy incident commander with the East Bay
Incident Mission Team, which
is coordinating the recovery
effort for Jackson County.
“It provides unity of command, establishes a span of
control so that the system is
not taxed and sets an objective,” he said.
Operations under the incident command are divided
into a series of different
branches which are subdivided
into different divisions. The
division supervisors report to
the branch director, who in
turn reports to operations.
The divisions, Parrott said,
allow for better control and
command, giving supervisors
in each division one person to
answer to.
“We coordinate the activities,” he said. “We don’t try to
tell people what to do. We’re
here as moderators to facilitate the program. The system
operation here is split between
state and local officials.”
Part of the team’s job is
preparing the agency reports
that are reviewed during the
daily morning briefings for
workers and supervisors.
“We set daily goals,” Parrott
said. “The reports show how
well each agency has done in
reaching their goals. We’ve
had some success and some
failures. What we’re looking to
do is meet short term and
long-term goals. The shortterm goals involve the recovery. The long-term goals are
things that we hope will be in
place after we leave.”
“A lot of people look at ICS
and they shy away from it
because it looks so complicated,” firefighter Tim August
said. “But it’s really very simple once you learn it. It helps
people focus on their missions
and their objectives.”
August, who works with the
East Bay Regional Parks Fire
Department near Oakland,
Calif., said the difference
between using the system for
forest fires and then applying
it for the hurricane is the size
of the organizational chart.
“They’re usually not this
large,” he said. “Sometimes for
a fire, we have two ICS teams,
one to coordinate fighting the
fire and another for the recovery. I hope they put a program
together here. It will really
help them.”
Jackson County Civil
Defense Director Butch Loper
said county officials have been
working on the ICS concept,
adding that county workers
have gone to training programs for ICS.
“I just hope we start getting
off terrorism training and do
more on natural hazards,
which is a greater threat,” he
said.
Loper said having the ICS
program in place has helped
the county’s recovery.
“You get all the support in
one area and you know who
you’re dealing with in each
division,” he said. “That helps
get things done.”
Outside the high school’s
buildings, the ICP takes on a
different look.
In the parking lot adjacent
to the school gym, a trailer
houses a laundry service that
washes, dries and folds workers’ clothes. Behind the trailer,
two large trailers hold showers

Dear Abby: I am 76, my
wife is 65. Our neighbor
“Roy” is retired, but probably
less than 60 years old. The
fence between Roy’s property
and ours is 6 feet tall, but the
wood has shrunk and there
are gaps of about half-an-inch
or more between the boards.

has given my wife nectarines
from over the fence, which is
as close as I want his naked
presence to my wife. Roy
insists he has the “right” to
go naked in his own back
yard. Unfortunately, my wife
agrees, and tells me she’s not
looking. I have asked her not
to accept any more gifts over
the fence from Roy and to
keep her contact with him to
a minimum. Am I being foolish? How would you recommend I handle this? — Too

Dear Too Close for comfort: With a 6-foot fence
around his property, Roy is
probably within his rights to
garden “au naturel.” One way
to handle the problem would
be for you to develop an interest in horticulture. Perhaps
the appearance of that fence
could be improved by planting bougainvillea, or poison
ivy on your side of it. Or a
lovely cactus garden ... the
possibilities are almost endless if you put your mind to
it. P.S. Just be sure to wear
gloves.

Our Opinion
Idiots
Eleven
It’s never been appealing, the idea of out-ofstate money and groups targeting political
candidates.
But we’ve found 11 exceptions to the rule:
We’ll call them “The Dirty Dozen, Minus One,”
or “Idiots Eleven.”
The scoundrels are 11 members of Congress
who voted against the $51 billion aid package
for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Their names?
• Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas
• Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.
• Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C.
• Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J.
• Rep. John Hostettler, R-Ind.
• Rep. Steve King , R- Iowa
• Rep. Butch Otter, R- Idaho.
• Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas
• Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wisc.
• Rep. Tom Tancredo, R- Colo.
• Lynn Westmoreland, R- Ga.
Party shouldn’t matter here, but surely the
11 must be a source of embarrassment to a
Bush administration struggling to right its
ship after the slow federal response to Katrina.
Let’s take it a step further. The eleven are
an embarrassment to Congress — an institution once a training ground for future presidents, now an institution where the bar has
been lowered, to allow at least 11 second-rate
intellects, soulless tin men and women without hearts.
Take for example Rep. Barton, chairman of
the House Energy and Commerce Committee,
who voted against the aid package 24 hours
after telling Gov. Haley Barbour and Gov.
Kathleen Blanco of Louisiana that his committee would do “whatever we can do to help,” the
Fort Worth Star Telegram reported.
And after compelling testimony from our
governor, Barton said:
“Whatever you need from the federal government, if you’ll work through them or directly
with us — if it’s within this committee's jurisdiction, we’ll do everything we can to make it
happen sooner rather than later and bigger
rather than smaller.”
His vote speaks volumes that Barton is long
on rhetoric, short on compassion and integrity.
Barton said that while he supports aid for
food, clothing and shelter for hurricane victims, he wants to make sure the funding gets
where it is needed.
What that says is that Barton and his 10
toadies have little faith in this administration
to handle the money well.
Consider the pork those 11 — and frankly
others in the House and Senate — have
squandered on pet projects, farm subsidies
and on and on. Yet the members of the Dirty
Dozen, Minus One can turn their backs on
undeniable suffering.
By the way, the House approved the spending bill Wednesday 410-11, the Senate, 97-0.
In only one sense should we remind the 11 of
their party. Many of the God-fearing people
who made Mississippi and Louisiana a Red
State, would likely vote for these 11.
Last Sunday, those Red State voters worshipped in borrowed clothes, reading from borrowed Bibles. The tears were all they had that
were not borrowed or salvaged from the horror
of Hurricane Katrina.
These 11 surely forgot about George W.
Bush’s “Compassionate Conservatism” and
“expanding the tent.” These days, many on the
Gulf Coast would give anything for a tent —
the canvas kind.
The folks who sent these reprehensible people to Congress did so with the understanding
that they would represent their values: Family, faith, compassion.
Denying desperately needed help in the face
of undeniable pain shows that these 11 representatives have forgotten that mandate.
When the next election comes, they should
be sacked, not for the sake of their party, nor
their districts, but for the sake of the nation.
Electing these heartless charlatans to Congress moves the national conscience closer to
bankruptcy.

Katrina’s political clout
Mother Nature has a deft hand when
it comes to reorganizing human perspective, as we’ve witnessed with Hurricanes
Katrina and Rita. Suddenly “things”
don’t matter, we’re reminded; only life
and loved ones do.
But Mother Nature also has other talents — ripple effects and trickle-down
consequences that help shape the political landscape. As she
highlights our priorities, she also showcases those individuals who rise to the
occasion. As well as
those who don’t.
Thus, Katrina and
Rita may be pivotal
players in determining who becomes the
next president of the Kathleen
United States. Presi- Parker
dents, after all, are
often elected according to the climate at
a given moment, rather than by strict
measures of specific skills.
President George W. Bush, despite his
early days of bacchanalia (hardly a solitary pursuit among the baby-boomer
generation), was a stiff shirt and
straight arrow following Bill Clinton’s
prolonged adolescence. He was, in other
words, a reaction vote for someone who
promised to restore dignity to the White
House. No more “little office” parties; no
more Hollywood stars jumping on the
Lincoln bed.
In his time, Clinton — just a warmblooded good ol’ boy from Arkansas who
could feel everybody’s pain (and the
occasional intern) — was a reaction to
the cold New England, out-of-touch
George H.W. Bush, himself a kinder-gentler reaction to tough-guy Ronald Reagan, who was a reaction to a peanut
farmer with a preacher streak, who was
a reaction to the corrupt era of Watergate.
You get the picture. In the current climate of war and ravaging hurricanes,
the lingering effects of which will be on
front pages for months if not years, what
sort of president might be next in line?
In times of national disaster and cataclysmic events, who you gonna call?
Rudy, Rudy, Rudy — as in former New
York Mayor Rudy Giuliani — springs to
mind. Or is it Arizona Sen. John
McCain? Both men have been getting
lots of buzz the past couple of weeks as
Americans have been reeling from hurricanes, massive federal spending promises and leadership that makes the Keystone Cops seem like Swiss clockmakers.
Both men have been leading the short
list of possible Republican presidential
candidates, of course, but then Katrina
and Rita came along. They were more
than weather. While no one wishes to
minimize or trivialize the horror of
these storms, especially as people are
still struggling with death and loss,
there’s no avoiding the inevitable political effects.
Giuliani has benefited greatly by his
unavoidable comparison to New Orleans
Mayor Ray Nagin. Obviously, hurricanes
and terrorist attacks are vastly different, especially in scope. But Nagin
missed his bullhorn moments: first,
before the storm when he might have
evacuated thousands of poor people
without access to transportation; second, immediately afterward when his
city quickly turned into a swamp of
anarchy.
If Katrina is remembered as the storm
that destroyed New Orleans, Nagin will
be remembered as the mayor who lost
control. By comparison, Giuliani is forever imprinted on the American psyche
as the Eveready-man, able to manage
whatever furies are unleashed by
Earth’s wrath or Hell’s wraiths.
McCain may have benefited politically
even more than Giuliani from the
storms’ ripples. As Americans recoil in
horror at the projected $200 billion federal price tag attached to rebuilding
New Orleans and the Gulf Coast (and
who knows for Rita), McCain is one of
the few voices — along with Sen. Tom
Coburn, R-Okla. — calling for government restraint.
Not against the spending per se, as
the federal government is mandated by
law to cover a certain percentage of
reconstruction costs following disaster.
But against pork-barrel and other
unnecessary spending during a time of
war and natural disaster.
While some are calling for cuts in war
spending and troop withdrawal from
Iraq to meet these expenses, McCain
and Coburn issued a joint statement
calling on Congress to “lead by example”
by cutting pork-barrel spending to help
fund hurricane relief. They made some
progress Wednesday as Coburn succeeded in getting the Senate to pass an
amendment attached to the Agriculture
appropriations bill that would “lift the
veil of secrecy that conceals the process
of inserting special projects — or pork
— into appropriations bills.”
Thus McCain, as a voice of fiscal conservatism in a party that has strayed
far from that principle, may evolve as
the hurricane candidate. Hurricane
McCain? A war hero in a time of war,
who is also a small-government conservative in an era of deficit spending,
sounds like a perfect storm.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Power
to the people
To the editor:
They came by the truckload. From California to New York, from Canada to Florida. They gave up the comfort of their surroundings and their families to come help
us through our literally darkest hours.
They braved heat and humidity, fallen
trees, power lines, lack of water and shelter.
We were told to expect six to eight weeks
before we could have power restored. Some
areas received power within six days.
Utility crews have worked miracles and
have gone out of their way to help us. They
have been living in tents, just like us. They
have also made water and ice runs.
How can we ever thank them?
We need to stay out of their way and
give them room to continue the work they
have to do. Let it be known that we are
eternally grateful to the power people.
Elaine Parker
Ocean Springs
After Katrina blew through the Coast,
many survivors looked for protection and hope
from their local police forces. Sadly, most of
the region’s law enforcement was no more prepared for the storm’s aftermath than the other
hapless government officials who dragged
their feet for days in restoring order and delivering food and medical supplies.
Here in Mississippi there were some reports
of looting. But radio and television broadcasts
prior to the storm informed people they were
NOT allowed to shoot
somebody for such a
crime. Shortly after the
storm passed, folks were
told that the 911 services
in Louisiana and Mississippi were “unreliable.”
Now, I’m no disaster
response professional. But
when you combine potential breaking and entering
Gaylon
with a lack of police protection you will arrive at
Parker
combustible results. I, for
example, and many of my
neighbors had weapons next to our front doors
for days after the storm.
Was I genuinely worried that a gang of
thugs would come rolling down my block carrying shotguns and looking to steal my
Chunky Soup and gasoline or rape my daughter? No, but I was unwilling to take the
chance of being unprepared, particularly in
light of the news reports that were coming out
of the Crescent City.
In the wake of the storm we’ve discovered
that the malfeasance and lawlessness in New
Orleans was epidemic. That’s not a racial
statement; it’s a factual one. Reuters released
a news story Wednesday that described the
conditions thusly: “After the storm, the
(Algiers Point) neighborhood association had
to act as law enforcement and emergency
response unit as city services collapsed and
the police force was unable to protect them.
Citizens organized armed patrols and
checked on the elderly. They slept on their
porches with loaded shotguns and bolted
awake when intruders stumbled on the aluminum cans they had scattered on the sidewalk.
Gunshots rang out for days, sometimes terrifyingly close.”
When government is unable to do its job,
responsible citizens take over. The people who
helped protect those neighborhoods deserve
hero status for standing up to the criminals in
ways police didn’t (or couldn’t). So do the
churches and emergency services that filled
the void in the food-distribution and medical
systems.
In fact, some authorities said the looters
had cart blanche if they were stealing food or
medicine from grocery stores but not if they
were stealing tennis shoes or beer. Who’s to
say which individuals don’t need shoes? If
police were looking the other way while people stole bread and canned goods, how could
they make the argument looters didn’t need
clothes or radios?
The point is: All theft is wrong.
Then, after the storm authorities were
breaking into homes themselves and evicting
the residents while taking their firearms. The
Washington Post quoted the New Orleans
police chief P. Edwin Compass III as saying,
“No one is allowed to be armed. We’re going to
take all the guns.”
Apparently, the only guns confiscated were
from law-abiding citizens trying to protect
their property and those found in abandoned
homes that police didn’t want to fall into the
hands of criminals. But how many looters
were arrested by police after the storm
passed?
According to a report from The Neshoba
Democrat, there were about 100 people taken
into custody in Mississippi. Reuters said 259
were arrested for various crimes throughout
New Orleans, but that pales in comparison to
the reported violence and theft.
Other accounts flooding the Internet’s email network say citizens defended their
property against thugs by remaining vigilant
and carrying AK-47s or other so-called
“assault rifles.” In the face of sure violence
and close danger, what do authorities expect
citizens to do?
It reminds me of a story my friend and former co-worker, Mike Shinaberry, told me
about the Rodney King riots in Los Angeles.
There was a Korean grocery store near Mike’s
radio station that was untouched after the
riots were quelled and he wanted to know
how that was possible.
The owner told Mike that he and his family
stood on the rooftop with their SKS rifles and
other firearms and pointed them at looters
and rioters as they approached. Discretion, I
suppose, controlled the better part of the looters’ minds and they turned away numerous
times.
That’s why our founders crafted the Second
Amendment, so people could protect themselves in the event of national emergency. As
the stories leak out of New Orleans about the
effectiveness of firearm defense, we should all
recognize their value to the protection of people and property.

From Page 1-A
was aware of the ruling and
that a sentencing hearing
would be held.
“I disagree with the ruling
by the U.S. Supreme Court
because it takes the power
from the jury to sentence a
defendant,” he said. “That is a
decision that the jury should
make. (But) we will schedule
the hearing and act accordingly.”
McGilberry was convicted
of using a baseball bat to kill
four relatives on Oct. 23, 1994,
in the St. Martin community.
McGilberry’s stepfather,
Kenneth Purifoy; mother,
Patricia Purifoy; stepsister,
Kimberly Self; and stepnephew, Kristopher Self, were
murdered. McGilberry took a
money order from his mother’s purse and drove away in
the family’s vehicle.
McGilberry told lawmen
where to find the murder
weapon.
In the Dycus case, Justice
Michael K. Randolph, joined
by five other justices, said the
people had expressed their
will through local legislatures
and the Congress that they
wanted the death penalty.
“I would respectfully urge
the (U.S.) Supreme Court to
exercise judicial restraint, as
the function of all courts is to
adjudicate, not to legislate.
Courts are charged with the
responsibility to interpret, not
create law,” Randolph wrote.
Eskridge was 17 at the time
of his crime and was convicted
for his part in Dec. 2, 1997,
robbery-murder of a retarded
Grenada woman. He pleaded
guilty to capital murder and
was sentenced to death in
1999 by an Attala County
Jury.
Testimony showed Eskridge,
along with four others,
planned and carried out a
plan to rob specific people.
Prosecutors said the five
then attacked 34-year-old
Cheryl Johnson, who was
struck in the head with a beer
bottle, robbed of an unspecified amount of money, and
ordered to remove her clothes.
She was shot in the chest at
close range.
Authorities said a gun taken from Eskridge at the time
of his arrest was tested and
found to be the murder
weapon.
Holly was 17 at the time of
his crime and was sentenced
to death in 1993 in Grenada
County.
Holly was convicted in the
July 12, 1992, killing of a
Grenada cab driver.
Holly claimed that he accidentally shot David Norwood
Jr. while trying to steal the
man’s money and cab. Norwood had picked up Holly and
two friends at the railroad station in Grenada.
An accomplice testified Holly shot the cab driver in the
back with a shotgun after
ordering him to run into the
woods. Holly had claimed the
shotgun fired accidentally
when he tripped.

From Page 1-A
Windows were blown out at
Magnolia Park Elementary,
but there was no flooding.
Ocean Springs Middle School
did “exceptionally well,” Hurt
said, with only minor roof
damage.
Despite the extent of the
damage and only temporary
repairs, Hurt said the school
facilities are safe for the
return of students. By the end
of the day, she said, the buildings will have been inspected
by the Army Corps of Engineers, the Ocean Springs Fire
Department, the district’s
architectural firm, the city’s
building department and the
health department.
Students may be less likely
to misbehave during the first
few days back. Ten National
Guardsmen have been
assigned to Ocean Springs
schools to assist with traffic,
security and health issues,
Hurt said.
School counselors have been
working to prepare handouts,
sessions and counseling tips,
as well.
“As a rule,” Hurt said, “students are very resilient and
they tend to do much better

than we adults do.”
Teachers at N.E. Taconi Elementary have a plan to help
students cope during the first
week of school.
A new schedule will allow
students to stay in homeroom
for 45 minutes each day, Anita
Carroll said, providing time
for special activities.
“On Monday and Tuesday
(the activities) will be more
about trying to talk out everything that’s happened,” she
said. “Wednesday morning
(the students) are going to
“blow” Katrina away with the
bubbles.”
Colleague Colleen Simnicht
explained.
“The first two days are
about dealing with what has
happened,” she said. “The next
three days are about healing,
and what we can do to heal, to
change.”
Nathan Kleiner, 9, was less
enthused about returning to
fourth grade at Magnolia Park
Elementary.
“The only thing I don’t really like about school is the
homework, but I’ll get through
it,” he said.
The early mornings are less
thrilling, Kleiner said.
“That’s pretty bad, too,” he
continued. “I don’t like getting
up. It takes me 15 minutes.”
Taconi principal Susan Dollar said expected enrollment
for the new year is a guessing
game. She had 420 students
attending the school before the
storm. Many students’ families have told her they will
have to move away — at least
temporarily.
“I think it’s going to be an
in-and-out year,” she said.
“We’re going to have people
coming and going.”

Moss Point visits No. 3 Hattiesburg
■ Dontavious
Morrisette, Tigers
look to avenge
2004’s bitter defeat
By JR. WITTNER
The Mississippi Press
A long-standing series
resumes tonight when No. 9
Moss Point travels to No. 3
Hattiesburg.
Both teams, who are known
as the Tigers, have met each
year since 1995 with the last
Moss Point victory coming in
2001. Moss
Point topped
Hattiesburg
55-34 that
season, and
had a chance
for a victory
in the closing
seconds of last
year’s game in Morrisette
Moss Point,
but missed a
field goal.
“We have a long history of
playing Hattiesburg, and it
seems like every year it is
always a tough game,” Moss
Point head coach Jerry Alexander said. “I think it is good
game for us and our fans
because they always have one
of the top teams in the state.”
In last year’s game, Hattiesburg running back Bubba
(Johnathan) Kirksey had a big
game rushing against the
Tigers and Alexander says
stopping Kirksey is a key to
winning the game.
“Their running back had a
big game against us last season,” Alexander said. “He is the
type of player who can make
a real difference. But he is not
all they have. They have an
experience offensive line and
their quarterback and wide
receivers can really make
plays.”
Moss Point opened the season with a win over the No. 6
(4A) Picayune, but fell last
week to 4A No. 1 Wayne County after a two week layoff due
to Hurricane Katrina.
“I’m not making excuses, but
you could tell last week who
had been playing and who had
been practicing,” Alexander
said of the 29-16 loss to Wayne
County. “We were in the game
up until the end. They scored
their final touchdown with
about three minutes to go.
“We really got a solid game
from Dontavious Morrisette
running the ball. We probably
should’ve gotten him the ball
more because he was running
so well.”
Hattiesburg (3-0) have
opened the season with wins
over Biloxi, Laurel and
Picayune.
The game against Hattiesburg continues a rough preregion schedule for the Tigers
who have already played
Picayune and Wayne County.
After the game against Hattiesburg, the Tigers will take
on 5A No. 1 South Panola Sept.
27 at 6:30 p.m.
“Playing these tough teams
helps make us better for the
region schedule and the playoffs,” Alexander said. “We
played pretty good last week
and we just are trying to get
better every week.”

Greyhounds hit
road to Picayune
By JOSH JOHNSON
The Mississippi Press
After a heartbreaking loss to a team coach
Steve Jones called one of the most athletic
squads his Greyhounds will face this year, the
slate doesn’t get any easier as Ocean Springs
(1-1) hits the road to 4A’s No. 9 ranked
Picayune tonight.
The Greyhounds committed some tough
penalties and had to weather a rain delay
in a 17-14 loss in Carencro, La. last week,
however, Jones likes what he has seen this
week during practice from his team.
“We’ve had a very good week of practice,”
Jones said. “We had some tough penalties
last week. They were first-game penalties,
and I think the rain delay and three hour
bus trip got our focus off the game.
“But, Carencro has a very good team. They
were young on offense, but they were very
athletic and very good on defense.”
Jones expects the same thing from
Picayune, but unlike last week, the Greyhounds are familiar with one of Mississippi’s
best teams.
“They have a very good football team,” Jones
said. “We played in a jamboree against them
in August, so we know what to expect. They
did run out of their basic offense, and so did
we, so they’ll be some things we see from
them that are new.”
Picayune may have to change a few things
up against the Greyhounds after starting the
2005 season 0-2. However, those two losses on
its ledger have come against some pretty good
football teams. Picayune has fallen to two 5A
schools: No. 3 Hattiesburg and No. 8 Moss
Point.
Still, Jones likes his team’s chances.
“Everybody played pretty well last week
against a good team,” Jones said. “We had a
few guys that didn’t dress last week, but we
are healthy heading into the game.
“We’re a lot better off this week than we
were last week.”
Jones is expecting good things from some
Greyhounds who weren’t able to play last
week. Middle linebacker Paul Gunn returns,
while Willis Rivers’ family has decided to stay
in Mississippi, despite a plan to move to Missouri. Rivers dressed but didn’t play last week
against Carencro. Jones also expects good
things tonight from Richard Dickson.
Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.

St. Martin hits the field tonight, hosting Jackson County foe East Central. The Yellow
Jackets have not played a game since Aug. 26.

Jackets make return
■ St. Martin hosts
East Central after
three week layoff
From Staff Reports
Christy Prichett/The Mississippi Press
Ocean Springs hopes get back on the winning track tonight as they travel to
Picayune.
St. Martin restarts its 2005
schedule tonight by hosting
Jackson County foe East Central.
David Gregory’s team hasn’t
hit the field since Aug. 26 when
it lost to Ocean Springs, while
East Central lost to Petal, 35-0
last week. Gregory added he
thought the Hornets were
affected by the layoff.
“It looks like they were in
the same boat as everyone else
last week,” Gregory said. “I
think they were still in shock
from the storm and didn’t get a
whole lot of practice time.”
So far on the young season,
not too many things have fallen
in place for Toby Melton’s team,
as the Hornets have given up
an average of 35 points a game
and have scored just seven
points. Melton added that
injuries and a transfer by tailback Bryant Lidell have forced
the coaching staff to move personnel.
“We’ve had to move some
personnel around, but we’ve
had a great week of practice,”
Melton said. “We give up 35
points a game, so we are trying
to fix things.”
Despite a longer layoff,
Melton added St. Martin may
not need to change much based
on its early showing against a
strong Ocean Springs team.
“They stepped up and played
well against Ocean Springs,”
Melton said. “I think depth
hurt them because it looked
like Ocean Springs wore them
down.”
However, the loss and the
storm hasn’t affected St. Martin so far on the practice field.
Gregory said his team returned
to practice last week with
renewed enthusiasm and called
Tuesday and Wednesday practices of this week as two of the
better practices the team has
had since returning to the football field. Most of St. Martin’s
players have returned to the
team, expect for a few that quit
the team to help the community with the aftermath left by
Hurricane Katrina.
Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.
Vancleave (0-2) at Forrest
County AHS (3-0), 7 p.m.
The Vancleave Bulldogs have
a tough task in front of them as
they open the Region 8-4A
schedule with Forrest County
tonight.
Forrest County has opened
the season with wins over
Purvis, North Forrest and
Pearl River Central, while Vancleave has suffered a loss to
Long Beach and fell 30-14 to
1A No. 2 Mount Olive last
week.
“We’ve played Forrest County the last couple of years so
we know what they bring to
the table,” Bloomfield said.
“They have a good football
team and they run the ball
really well and that is something we have to focus on.”
The Bulldogs have opened
the last two seasons with wins
over Forrest County, but this
will be the first time the teams
have squared off in region play.
“They have a lot of experience and I know they are like
we are and want to open the
region season with a win,”
Bloomfield said.
The Bulldogs have suffered a
few injuries in the early going
and are relying on some freshman to step up.

Phillies win, cut into Braves’ NL East lead
By PAUL NEWBERRY
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Philadelphia Phillies are keeping the
pressure on the Atlanta Braves
in the NL East.
Jon Lieber pitched eight
scoreless innings and the
Phillies scored four runs off Tim
Hudson in the ninth to take
another series from Atlanta,

beating the Braves 4-0 Thursday.
Jimmy Rollins led off the
afternoon with a single, extending his hitting streak to a post1900 franchise-record 27
games, and Philadelphia wound
up winning two of three at
Turner Field, closing within
four games of the Braves with
nine left.
The Phillies have at least
made things interesting by
beating Atlanta five times in
seven games over the last week
and a half.
Philadelphia remained two
games behind Houston in the
wild-card race. The Astros completed a sweep in Pittsburgh
with a 2-1 victory over the
Pirates.
Hudson (13-9) got two outs
in the ninth, only to get tagged
by two straight pinch-hitters.
Michael Tucker singled in the
game’s first run and Shane Victorino followed with his first
career homer, a three-run shot
that knocked out Hudson.
Manager Bobby Cox was
booed as he came out to make a
pitching change, the home fans
upset that he let Hudson hit in
the bottom of the eighth with
the potential go-ahead run at
third.
Hudson grounded out weakly
in front of the plate, and Rafael
Furcal’s sharp liner was back-
handed by David Bell to end
the threat. Then, the Phillies
took advantage of a fading
Hudson, who threw 116 pitches.
The Braves didn’t do much
against Lieber (16-12), who had
beaten them three times this
season.
Only three runners got as far
as second base, most notably
Ryan Langerhans with a leadoff double in the eighth. He
moved to third on Brian
McCann’s grounder, but that
was it.
Andruw Jones, mired in a 1for-23 slump, led off the second
with a single and moved up on
Adam LaRoche’s sacrifice bunt,
only to get stranded there. Furcal doubled with two outs in
the third, but Marcus Giles
popped out to short center.
Lieber struck out seven and
didn’t walk anyone.
Rollins singled to right on the
second pitch of the game. His
hitting streak had tied him
with Chuck Klein, who had a
pair of 26-game strings in 1930.
After Rollins’ hit, Kenny
Lofton hit into a forceout, then
Chase Utley walked to put two
on with one out. But Hudson
escaped the jam, getting Bobby
Abreu and Pat Burrell to
ground out.
Hudson faced the minimum
over the next four innings, the
only hit — Abreu’s fourthinning single — erased by a
double play. But the Phillies
threatened again in the sixth,
once again sparked by Rollins.
The leadoff hitter doubled
off the wall in right with one
out, and Lofton walked. The
runners moved up on Utley’s
grounder, and Hudson walked
Abreu intentionally to load the
bases.
Burrell hit a liner up the
middle on the very next pitch,
but second baseman Marcus
Giles had it played perfectly
and made the inning-ending
catch. Disgusted, Burrell slung
his bat toward dugout.

LSU-UT showdown
moved to Monday
The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — LSU’s home opener has been delayed by a hurricane once
again, and this time it was Rita that forced
the Tigers’ game against Tennessee scheduled for Saturday to be moved to Monday
night.
The Southeastern Conference made the
announcement Thursday after a conference
call with school officials. The game will start
at 7:30 EDT and be televised by ESPN2.
“After reviewing all of the information I felt
this was the best decision for the game,”
SEC commissioner Mike Slive said. “The
safety of our student-athletes, coaches and
fans is our priority. I understand this puts a
burden on LSU and its administration, however, the travel safety issues necessitate this
decision.”
Hurricane Rita was heading toward the
Texas Gulf Coast and western Louisiana on
Thursday. It was expected to make landfall
by late Friday or early Saturday.
LSU’s first home game against North
Texas was scheduled for Sept. 3, just a few
days after Katrina ravaged the New Orleans
and the Gulf Coast.
Then LSU’s game against Arizona State,
slated for Sept. 10 at Tiger Stadium, was
moved to Tempe, Ariz., because of the hurricane aftermath that turned the campus into a
temporary shelter, hospital and morgue. The
Tigers beat Arizona State 35-31 in Tempe
and haven’t played since.
Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer was
opposed to playing this weekend’s game on
Saturday, believing the conditions would be
unsafe for travel.
Even before Rita started making its way
toward Louisiana, the Volunteers were going
to have an unusual game day. With no hotel
rooms available in Baton Rouge, Tennessee
planned to fly into the city early Saturday for
the night game.
Gamez leads Texas Open
SAN ANTONIO — Robert Gamez shot an
8-under 62 on Thursday to take a one-stroke
lead over Houston-area resident Jeff Maggert after the first round of the Texas Open.
“That’s a good round, but I have to keep it
going,” Gamez said. “That’s been my problem in the past.”
Maggert’s 63 capped a day where many of
the Texas players kept an eye on the weather as Hurricane Rita approached the Texas
coast.
He flew his wife and children — including
year-old twins — into town early Friday on a
charter flight from The Woodlands airport
near his home.
“Getting my wife and kids here put my
mind at ease after going back and forth over
the situation the past couple of days. I’m
counting my blessings,” Maggert said. “Part
of the problem I’ve had for the last two years
is trying too hard, but today my mind wasn’t
holding me back because I was so happy my
family was here.”
Boxer dies from brain injury sustained in
title fight
LAS VEGAS — Boxer Leavander Johnson died Thursday from injuries sustained
five days earlier in a lightweight title fight with
Jesus Chavez.
The 35-year-old died at University Medical
Center, where he had been hospitalized
since being injured in the fight Saturday night
at the MGM Grand hotel-casino.
A hospital spokeswoman said Johnson
was pronounced dead at 4:23 p.m.
Johnson’s promoter, Lou DiBella, said
Johnson’s family members were present
when he died. Johnson’s father was his trainer and his brother was his manager.
Palmeiro said substance he received
from Tejada might have caused positive
test
NEW YORK — Rafael Palmeiro told baseball’s arbitration panel that a vitamin he
received from Baltimore Orioles teammate
Miguel Tejada might have caused his positive test for steroid use.
Palmeiro testified that he received B-12
from Tejada, a person familiar with the grievance hearing said Thursday on condition of
anonymity because the proceedings were
secret.
“Right now I’m in shock,” Tejada, a former
American League MVP, said after Baltimore
lost to the New York Yankees on Thursday
night. “I’ve never given anybody steroids
before. I’ve been checked out three times
already, and I’m clean.”
Utah rebounds with win over Air Force ULM defeats Owls
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Brian
Johnson passed for 305 yards
and two touchdowns and ran
for three scores, and Utah
avoided its first losing streak in
three years by beating Air
Force 38-35 Thursday night.
The Utes (3-1, 1-1 Mountain
West), whose 18-game winning
streak was snapped a week
earlier in an overtime loss at
TCU, scored twice in seven seconds to break a 14-all tie and
led the rest of the way.
Travis LaTendresse caught
10 passes, including a 12yarder for a touchdown from
Johnson, and finished with 139
yards for Utah after catching
just eight passes in the first
three games.
Johnson was 21-for-29 passing and scored on three 1-yard
runs. He threw one interception, a ball tipped by a Utah
player to one of the Falcons.
Ryan Williams ran for two
touchdowns for Air Force (2-2,
1-2), setting one up with a 34yard sprint up the middle on
the opening drive. Adam Fitch
rallied the Falcons in the
fourth quarter, throwing a
touchdown pass and running
for a score with 1:08 remaining. But Utah recovered an
onside kick for the second time
in the quarter and ran out the
clock.
Utah hasn’t lost two games
in a row since losing six
straight in 2002.
After gaining 242 yards in
the first half, Air Force gained
just 42 in the third quarter and
struggled after Johnson’s 60yard pass to Brian Hernandez
with about 11 minutes left in
the third quarter put Utah up
38-21.
Utah played some porous
defense in the first half, then
got stingy in the third quarter.
It was good enough to hold off
Air Force’s late comeback try.
Eric Weddle recovered a fum-
ble at the Air Force 12 to set up
a touchdown and had an interception. Casey Evans also
picked off a pass for the Utes
and recovered the final kickoff to seal the victory.
The Falcons got within 10
points on Fitch’s 15-yard pass
to Jason Brown with 3:15 left
in the game, but Utah recovered the onside kick and ran a
couple more minutes off the
clock.
The 21 points scored in the
second half were a stark contrast from the first, when Utah
led 31-21 after Dan Beardall’s
46-yard field goal with 3 seconds left.
FORT LAUDERDALE,
Fla. (AP) — Calvin Dawson
ran for a game-high 115
yards, the last coming on a
6-yard touchdown run with
1:23 remaining that lifted
Louisiana-Monroe to a 2821 win over Florida Atlantic
in the Owls’ first-ever Sun
Belt Conference game.
Florida Atlantic was driving near midfield with about
2 minutes remaining, before
Louisiana-Monroe cornerback Chaz Williams stripped
the ball out of receiver
Thomas Parker’s hands and
returned it 42 yards. Steven
Jyles completed 19 of 31
passes for 214 yards and two
touchdowns. Florida Atlantic
quarterback Danny Embick,
threw for 168 yards and two
scores.

Be
International team captures
patient
slim lead at Presidents Cup
with
outdoors
By DOUG FERGUSON
The Associated Press
I know that many of you
have suffered a lot of damage
due to Hurricane Katrina and
I hope that you all are recovering and doing well.
South Mississippi may never look the same from this
massive storm, but it is our
task to take the load on our
shoulders and take the time
to rebuild.
This week it is pretty hard
to focus on the upcoming dove
season or
trying to
go fishing when
there is
so much
devastation and
clean up
to
be
done.
Many of Jimmy
you have Davis
asked
me over the past two weeks
about hunting seasons and
fishing because of the storm. I
guess with the fall of the year
upon us it might give us some
peace of mind to look forward
to spending some time in the
woods or maybe trying to catch
specks or a red fish in the
marsh.
The Department of Wildlife,
Fisheries and Parks has
requested that before we enter
any State or Federal Park,
especially in south and central
Mississippi you must report to
central headquarters because
many of these areas are still
closed because of heavy damage.
With bow season only a
short time away, many of you
will be using tree climbers to
bow hunt and another word of
caution is the timber industry
in south Mississippi has taken
a tremendous hit.
At this time there has been
no word from the Department
of Wildlife, Fisheries and
Parks on changing any seasons from what has been
already been set. This is not to
say, especially on state properties, that will not be changes.
If there are I will report them
to you as soon as I get them.
Just a thought that I would
like to put in the back of you
mind: Those of us who stayed
here and rode out the storm
and through God’s will survived it, we must remember
the game had no where to hide
and they had to fend for themselves. As far as fishing goes in
the saltwater, if there are any
boats left, it is not recommended that you venture out
or if you do, don’t keep any of
the fish that you catch at this
time.
It is to my understanding
that it will take some time
for coastal Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana to purify
itself and make it a safe place
to fish. Also the shrimp industry has taken a tremendous
blow and with all of the
debris in the sound, I just
don’t see how it is possible
for a shrimper to operate a
net and not get it tangled up
on something.
Freshwater fishermen you
also must use extreme caution. Rivers and creeks and
some lakes where you would
not think twice about running wide open, you must use
extreme caution because of
underwater debris. Don’t be
alarmed if in some areas,
especially off the Pascagoula
River, killing fish become a
big problem because of so
much debris in the water.
Remember the good Lord
placed the outdoors for us to
enjoy, why we have storms
like this is not for us to
answer, let’s all work together and help our fellow neighbor to rebuild what we once
had.
I would like to thank all of
the military, firemen and
police as well as all of the volunteers from not only locally
but those who left their families from all over the country
to come and help us. If I can
be of any assistance to any of
you please e-mail me and I
will do my very best to help.
GAINESVILLE, Va. —
Adam Scott watched his 25foot eagle putt from the fringe
curl into the left side of the
cup for a 3-up lead against
Tiger Woods and Fred Couples, a serious blow that set
the tone for the International
team Thursday in the opening match at the Presidents
Cup.
Retief Goosen extended his
hand, as if to tap fists with
Scott to celebrate such a big
putt in alternate shot.
But all Goosen wanted was
the ball. It was his turn on
the tee.
“I think I got a ’Good putt’
out of him,” Scott said with a
smile.
With quiet precision,
Goosen and Scott turned in
a tag-team performance that
buried Woods and Couples
and sent the International
team into truly foreign territory at Robert Trent Jones
Golf Club — in the lead.
Mike Weir and Trevor
Immelman brought up the
rear, making four birdies in
the first five holes to crush
David Toms and Stewart
Cink. In between, the International team did enough
right to take a 3 1/2-2 1/2
lead.
One point isn’t much, especially with 28 matches left
until the cup is awarded.
“It’s like a mile race and
you’re 50 yards ahead,” International captain Gary Player
said. “This is as close as it
can be without being a tie.”
But considering how the
International team typically
starts at RTJ, it was cause
for optimism. In three previous trips to this golf course
on the shores of Lake Manassas, the Americans have
twice led 5-0 and once led 4-1
after the opening day.
“Scott and Goosen beating
Tiger and Freddie was a big
thing for the International
team,” U.S. captain Jack
Nicklaus said. “It set the
stage for them being ahead.
It’s the difference in them
being ahead. We were hoping
for exactly the same situation. I thought we could
match up against them and
do well. I was wrong today.”
The Americans didn’t have
a lot of things go right for
them.
Jim Furyk’s first swing of
the day aggravated a rib
injury, and he had to get therapy between shots just to finish his match. He and Fred
Funk scratched out a halve
against Vijay Singh and Mark
Hensby, but Nicklaus won’t
know until Friday whether
Furyk can play his better-ball
match with Woods.
Nicklaus’ best pairing from
two years ago in South Africa
— Davis Love III and Kenny
Perry — each missed par
putts to drop two behind
down the stretch and lost on
the 17th hole when Michael
Campbell made a 12-foot
birdie moments after Perry
had made a 30-footer up the
ridge.
“Some places it could have
been worse,” Nicklaus said.
“Some places it could have
been better. Tomorrow is
another day.”
Scott and Goosen got this
day off to a resounding start.
It started with a simple
halve on the third hole, when
Goosen hit a 60-foot putt to a
hole location that was a few
feet below a steep ridge. The
putt was struck with such
perfect pace that it settled 16
inches for the cup for a conceded birdie. Then, it was a
matter of waiting for Woods
and Couples to self-destruct.
A poor chip by Woods cost
them the fourth hole. Couples missed a 4-foot birdie
putt so badly that it never
touched the hole, falling two
behind on the sixth. And
when Scott made a 10-foot
birdie putt on the par-3 seventh that juts out into the
lake, the International team
already was 3-up.
“The first match out is
always important, no matter
who you’re playing,” Scott
said. “Gary wanted Retief and
I to go out and give the guys
something to see.”
The turning point came at
the par-5 10th. Woods and
Couples won the previous
hole, and then Couples made
an unlikely birdie with a 35foot putt. But instead of cutting the deficit to one hole,
Goosen calmly rolled in a 15footer to halve the hole.
“That was probably the
point in the match that ... we
didn’t win it there, but it certainly had a big impact,”
Scott said. “We changed our
momentum. Retief rolls it in,
and heads off to the next tee
as he does, and everything is
normal.”
It was only the third time
in 36 matches at the Presidents Cup or Ryder Cup that
Woods was beaten without
getting to the 16th tee. Neither he nor Couples played
well.
“I was outclassed by three
guys, and I couldn’t help
Tiger at all,” Couples said.
It was the marquee match
of the day, and the anticipation built as former Presidents Bush and Clinton stood
on the first tee amid the
wives and the heads of six
major golf tours around the
world.
Goosen, quiet as ever, kept
it all in perspective when
asked the importance of taking down Woods.
“Do we get 10 points if we
beat him?” he said.
The Americans kept it close
behind Scott Verplank and
Justin Leonard, who grew up

Gary Player, left, from South Africa, congratulates

Michael Campbell of New Zealand beat Davis Love II
and Kenny Perry of the United States 2 and 1 in their
alternate-shot match at the Presidents Cup Thursday,
at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Va.

in Dallas and have similar
games. They recovered from a
rocky start, then poured it on
with three straight birdies to
start the back nine and won,
4 and 2, over Peter Lonard
and Stuart Appleby.
Phil Mickelson already
atoned from his 0-5 performance two years ago in South
Africa, teaming with Chris
DiMarco for a 1-up victory
over Nick O’Hern and Tim
Clark.
The most impressive performance came from Weir and
Immelman, the Canadian
having one of his worst years
on tour, the South African
playing his first Presidents
Cup as a questionable captain’s pick.
They were 6 under through
13 holes when the match
ended, an astounding score
for alternate shot. And they
never came seriously close to
making a bogey.
“I don’t think it was anything Stewart or David did,”
Weir said. “We just got off to a
hot start and from there, we
didn’t make any mistakes. So
it was hard for those guys to
get back in the match,
because we were playing really well.”
So was the rest of the International team, giving it a rare
lead on opening day at RTJ.
Willis helps Marlins stay in wild card race
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Dontrelle
Willis won his major leagueleading 22nd game and kept
Florida’s flickering NL wildcard hopes alive, allowing five
hits over eight innings.
Florida, which lost the first
two games of this series,
remained four games behind
Houston and two behind
Philadelphia in the wild-card
race. All three teams have
nine games to play.
Willis (22-9) ran his record
to 8-1 since Aug. 1.
Reds 6, Cardinals 2
CINCINNATI — Edwin
Encarnacion’s bases-loaded
double completed a five-run
rally in the eighth inning for
Cincinnati.
The NL Central champion
Cardinals clinched home-field
advantage throughout the
league playoffs when Atlanta
lost earlier Thursday.
Astros 2, Pirates 1
PITTSBURGH — Brandon
Backe made his second successive strong start and the
Houston Astros held their
lead in the NL wild-card race,
beating the Pittsburgh
Pirates for their eighth win
in nine games.
The Astros lead Philadelphia by two games in the race
for the NL’s fourth playoff
spot.
Rockies 4, Padres 2
DENVER — Aaron Cook
took a shutout into the ninth
inning, Todd Helton hit a tworun homer and the Colorado
beat San Diego 4-2 Thursday,
dropping the NL West-leading Padres back to .500.
The Padres (76-76) lost for
the second time in three days
to the last-place Rockies. Colorado routed the Padres 20-1
Tuesday night.
San Diego still leads the
division by five games over
San Francisco.
Nationals 2, Giants 0
WASHINGTON — With
little to play for other than
finishing above .500, the
Washington Nationals used
a lineup of rookies and
reserves and still managed to
beat the San Francisco
Giants, who rested Barry
Bonds and missed a chance
to gain ground in the NL
West.
Yankees 7, Orioles 6
NEW YORK — Jorge Posada hit a tying home run in
the fifth inning, then added a
three-run, upper-deck drive
in the sixth and New York
beat Baltimore 7-6 on Thursday night.
A night after moving past
the Boston Red Sox to take
over first place in the AL
East for the first time since
July 18, the Yankees won for
the 10th time in 11 games
and opened a season-high
one-game lead with 10
remaining.
Mike Mussina (13-8)
pitched for the first time
since Aug. 29, when he left
a start at Seattle with elbow
inflammation.
Blue Jays 7, Mariners 5
TORONTO — Toronto’s
Alex Rios broke a tie with a
two-run homer in the eighth
off Joel Pineiro (7-10).
Rios went 2-for-4 and drove
in three runs.
Justin Speier (3-2) pitched
a scoreless eighth for the victory. Miguel Batista got the
last two outs of the ninth for
his 29th save.
Nelson said of their region
rivals.
According to Nelson, Gautier goes into the game with
40 players, about six less
than when the season began
with some leaving because
of post storm conditions and
some leaving for other reasons.
Although D’Iberville has
not played for three weeks
the two teams did exchange
preseason game tapes,
including a 24-20 Warriors’
win over Harrison Central.
“That was a big game for
t hem ,”
Nelson
sa id .
“D’Iberville always has a
good defense, they just get
after you pretty good.”
Although the storm has
caused some disruptions in
the Gautier players’ lives,
Nelson says they were coping really well and concentrating when need on football.
“We’ve got a pretty group
of kids left,” Nelson said.
“They work real hard. Like I
said before, you’ll never
hear me make excuses
about what’s going on.”
Greene County (1-1) at
Collins (1-1), 7 p.m.
Greene County and
Collins have an exciting
and recent history against
each other the last four seasons.
Greene County and
Collins have meet each year
since 2002, including twice
in the playoffs. Collins handed Greene County its only
loss in the 2002 season, but
Greene County returned the
favor in 2003 on its way to a
3A state championship.
The two teams meet under
new circumstances this season as they are now together
in Region 8-3A.
Greene County enters the
contest ranked No. 4 in the
3A ranks, while Collins sits
at No. 7 in the poll.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —
Travis Hafner hit his sixth
home run in five games and
Coco Crisp added a two-run
shot to lead Cleveland past
Kansas City 11-6 on Thursday night, moving the streaking Indians within 1 1/2
games of first-place Chicago
in the AL Central.

“We have a long way to go
this season and we are just
trying to get better each
week,” Bloomfield said. “We
have to work on the little
things a little more, but we
can still reach our goal of
making the playoffs.”
D’Iberville (1-0) at Gautier
(1-1), 7 p.m.
Gautier head football coach
Don Nelson hopes to have a
little edge over D’Iberville
tonight, when the two teams
meet at War Memorial Stadium in Pascagoula.
D’Iberville has not played a
game in 24 days because of
conditions following Hurricane Katrina.
“They’ve been kind of displaced,” Nelson said. “Hopefully, we will have an edge
on them.”
Gautier and D’Iberville
have played nine times over
the eight last year’s with
Gautier leading the series
6-3, bu t Nelson sa id
D’Iberville is always a tough
opponent.
“They kind of ruled the
roost until we came along,”
