The hospital and HCA’s North Florida Division announced the signing of the agreement Thursday morning. Once the sale is complete, HCA will own 13 hospitals in North Florida, including Lake City Medical Center, North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville and two hospitals in Ocala. “We are very pleased to be expanding our HCA network into Putnam County,” North Florida Division President Michael Joyce said. “Over the coming months, we will work closely with Putnam Community Medical Center’s medical staff, employees and community to explore ways to enhance BY ASIA AIKINS Palatka Daily News Palatka city commissioners appointed former Palatka City Manager Allen Bush to serve as the interim city manager Thursday evening.

Mayor Mary Lawson Brown, who served on the commission while Bush was city manager. “He never lets us spend any money.” Bush’s background in finance and experience as the city’s manager contributed to Mayor Terrill Hill’s reaching out to him for the interim position, Hill said. Palatka Finance Director Matt Reynolds was tasked with taking over the city manager’s responsibilities as of Feb. 27, the day after the commission unanimously voted to terminate City Manager Michael Czymbor’s contract. “It would be beneficial to have somebody here to help out,” Reynolds said, adding that the annual budget planning process would soon begin.

No other candidates have filed intents to run for the office. “I just feel like it’s my time…if I want to get into public office at a state level,” Payne said. Payne, Katherine Van After 2014’s “banner year” for tourism in Putnam County, local officials are working to keep Putnam in the forefront for largescale events in 2016. “Last March was different from this March. We had two major events that brought thousands of people to the area,” said Putnam County Chamber of Commerce president Dana Jones. “But just because we don’t have any of those large-scale events scheduled, doesn’t mean we’re not working to get them.” The Azalea Festival at the beginning of March is known to kick off what officials call Putnam County’s “busy season” for events and tourism each year. This is also the time of year chamber officials work hardest to attract events to the county, Jones said. “We have several conversations going for 2016,” Jones said. “New, large events are on top of our annual schedule with events like Blue Crab and the Wolfson’s fishing tournament.” Last March, the Bike Florida tour coupled with the Bassmasters Elite series tournament had a $3 See PAYNE, Page 3A See TOURISM, Page 3A See PALATKA, Page 3A Bobby Payne signs up for 2016 District 19 House race BY BRANDON D. OLIVER Palatka Daily News The 2016 election is more than a year and a half away, but a Palatka resident has already submitted paperwork to compete for the District 19 state representative seat. Having filed his paperwork with the Supervisor of Elections Office on Tuesday, Bobby Payne will run as a Republican during next year’s election cycle. Payne, a Palatka native and 34-year employee of Seminole Electric Cooperative, said he filed well before the June 20-24, 2016, qualification deadline so that he could run as thorough of a campaign as possible. “I think it’s important to go ahead and file early…and build momentum,” he said. “It’s something I’ve been looking at for 20 years. The important thing I need to do now is build a good campaign fund.” Payne said he has hired a professional campaign manager from Tallahassee to help with his political ambitions. Hiring a manager and putting together a political team so early should come in handy, Payne said, because he is not the first person to show interest in being the representative for District 19. Crescent Citians ponder fresh ideas STREET SCENE BY PETE SKIBA Palatka Daily News CRESCENT CITY – No one wants redevelopment to be a rudderless boat. About 20 people attended the first of many Community Redevelopment Agency workshops on the Miller property at 6 p.m. in City Hall. “I don’t know how much will be decided,” said City Manager Patrick Kennedy as he got the discussion rolling. “We’ll talk about where we’ve been and where we are going. “We have a real opportunity to try and control our own destiny and what we want our downtown to look like.” Centering on the Miller property, a 2-acre parcel on Summit Street at Central Avenue, the discussion early on sparked ideas. Joan Hagedorn, a member of the CRA Advisory committee, had a couple suggestions, including one that sounded like an arts and crafts village.

State winter haven Orange juice sales post biggest decline in 3 years If Florida citrus needs a hero, it needs one right now. A month after posting the best results in seven months, U.S. orange juice sales posted its biggest decline in nearly three years. The disappointing sales results came just before the Citrus Department announced the release of the second issue of the adventures of Captain Citrus, a promotional campaign. But Captain Citrus is targeted at future OJ consumers, fourth- and fifth-graders in schools across the country, offering no immediate prospects for reversing the 13-year decline. Sales of all 100 percent OJ products in U.S. supermarkets declined 10 percent in the four-week period ending Feb. 14 on an average price increase of 6.4 percent compared to a similar period a year ago. gainesville Mother in jail after son dies of morphine OD Police in north Florida have arrested a mother in connection with the morphine overdose of her 2-yearold son. Gainesville police say 26-year-old Tracey Wells was arrested Tuesday after toxicology tests confirmed the toddler died of morphine toxicity on July 27, 2014. Authorities say Wells waited 9 hours before calling 911. Investigators believe the boy, Erin Wells, was fed morphine to calm him down. Wells had recorded video of Erin falling and unable to keep his eyes open. On his last day, Erin had been watched by two of Wells’ friends, one of whom had prescription morphine. Wells returned home late in the evening and found Erin asleep, tried to revive him and eventually called 911. Police still don’t know who gave the boy the drugs.

State’s student testing mishaps continue despite promised fix Associated Press TALLAHASSEE — Florida’s testing glitches are continuing despite assurances from state officials that problems have been fixed. Education Commissioner Pam Stewart told legislators on Thursday that on the third day of testing students were able to log into the online portal being used for the test. Students in middle school and high school are using the portal to take a required standardized writing test. Duval County was forced to suspend testing shortly after it began on Thursday morning. The school superintendent said students saw blank screens when trying to log in. Three of Florida’s largest counties were also scheduled to resume testing on Thursday. Officials in those counties had halted testing earlier in the week due to problems.

Reynolds announced last month that he would be resigning as finance director to pursue another opportunity. “I don’t want to see the city suffer if I leave,” he said. “Fortunately, the other opportunity I had, they’re flexible. It’s an ever-changing situation.” Reynolds said he would decide whether he would pursue an application for the city manager’s position during the transition period with Bush. “For the couple of months that I’m here, I plan to be working very closely with Matt. He and I will probably be spending a lot of time together,” Bush said. The commission voted unanimously for Bush’s appointment, and gave the go-ahead for Mayor Terrill Hill, City Attorney Donald Holmes and Bush to draft a contract for his services. The commission approved a flat rate pay of $1,750 per week for a period of eight weeks. The commission also approved the severance pack- Angel Duke, community activist, was an arts and cultural center. The center would be of use for the younger residents of the city as well as the more mature residents. Another member of the CRA Advisory Board, Jim McMahon, said that any thoughts of nonprofit use should be tempered by the investment already made in the land and building and future expenses. “That $200,000 is five years of total CRA income,” McMahon added. Kennedy noted that arts centers might be nonprofit, but they generate traffic and bring people to an area who shop and eat at restaurants. The discussion also brought up the idea that the 8,000-square-foot building could be divided with one floor an art center and offices or other businesses on the other floor. make sure there is a smooth transition for hospital employees and patients as well as the community. Putnam Community is the only Life Point hospital that is located in Florida. The acquisition is subject to customary regulatory approvals, according to HCA, and should be completed by the end of this year’s second quarter. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Michael Clark, the CEO of Putnam Medical, said the switch in parent companies could help the hospital take its service to the next level. “Joining HCA North Florida is an exciting prospect for Putnam Community Medical Center, our patients, medical staff and employees,” Clark said. “As part of HCA, our hospital would be part of a dynamic and expanding regional healthcare system, enhancing our Bartram Trail Conference in October, Sam Carr said. Carr is a member of the Bartram Committee, a group responsible for organizing Bartram Trail markers for Putnam County’s waterways and trails. Carr said the bi-annual conference has been taking place since 1975 in various locations. The conference is expected to bring at least 350 visitors to Putnam County from all over Europe and the United States. The Bartram Trail Conference will take place Oct. 16-18, wrapping up the events season in Putnam County. The 69th Azalea Festival will kick off the events season this Saturday and Sunday in downtown Palatka. Jones said the annual Azalea Amateur Golf Tournament, taking place at the Palatka Golf Club March 20-21, would probably be the biggest contributing event for March tourism, though. “It’s a long-running tournament we have here at the Palatka Golf Club,” she said. age for former City Manager Michael Czymbor covering a lump sum payout and benefits totaling more than $83,000. Reynolds said the city would use funds from the Palatka Police Department’s savings to fund Czymbor’s payout and possibly Bush’s payment. “We came up with enough funds with the resignation of the police chief and not filling that position until the end of this fiscal year,” Reynolds said. “And some other personnel changes they’ve had this year. There’s enough savings there to cover Mr. Czymbor’s severance payout.” Reynolds said there is a $62,000 contingency budget that could also be used. Commissioners Justin Campbell and Brown both said they did not want to overload Reynolds during this transitional period. Campbell recommended the interim city manager and Reynolds advertise for the vacant positions in Reynolds’ departments right away. “Being that one of (the vacancies) is our IT. That’s serious,” Campbell said. “If something was to crash today or tomorrow, who would it fall on? Matt.” Campbell and Brown also said they were concerned with the timing of the resignations. Brown said she would like to hold a meeting with all of the city’s staff to let them know their jobs are secure. “I think rumor has started a bunch of crap,” she said. Hill said he recently spoke with department heads and employees who resigned. “I wanted them to know it wasn’t a witch hunt,” he said. “(Czymbor’s termination) was an isolated event.” He agreed that the city staff should be involved with a teambuilding exercise or visioning session.

In 1914, the Camphor Farm, located between the villages of Satsuma and Welaka, produced 10,000 pounds of crude gum. (Later, the gum was made into camphor and bottled on the site.) In 1931, Putnam County’s “No Fence” law was declared unconstitutional by the Florida Supreme Court. Farm animals were free to roam until 1948 when a state fence law was passed. Cattle often sought the warm pavement to lie on during cold nights, posing a serious problem for motor vehicles. OUR MISSION: We believe that strong newspapers build strong communities.

TOM WOOD, CHAIRMAN DINK NESMITH, PRESIDENT OTHER VIEWS “Our Views” is the editorial position of the Palatka Daily News. All other features on the Opinions page are the views of the writers or cartoonists and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Palatka Daily News. The real ‘state of the state’ F loridians saw a looser, more relaxed Gov. Rick Scott on Tuesday when he delivered the first State of the State speech of his second term. He even drew laughter when he called the occasion “a chance for me to show off my worldrenowned oratorical skills.” Good one, governor. Unfortunately, the welcome change in style was not accompanied by a similar change in substance. The governor reiterated his goals of cutting taxes, spending more on public education and freezing graduate school tuition, but he offered few hints about how to reach those goals. Also absent was any mention of some tough problems facing the Legislature. Lawmakers would have found guidance from the governor far more useful than repeated praise for Florida’s “exceptionalism.” The governor’s proposed budget contains prime examples of the issues he failed to address. His call for reduced taxation makes good on a promise to voters, but lawmakers say they still don’t have the money to pay for all of Mr. Scott’s campaign vows, and he offered no clue about how to select priorities. The governor wants $700 million in tax cuts and, commendably, record per-pupil spending in public schools. As Rep. Mark Pafford of West Palm Beach pointed out in the Democratic reply, though, the education increase is accomplished by raising schooldistrict taxes at the local level, in addition to what the state can pitch in. That’s hard to square with the repeated mantra of lower taxes coming from Mr. Scott. That surplus that his budget envisions is no sure thing, either. To get there, it ignores a huge hole created by the upcoming end of a federal program for hospitals that treat low-income patients. Without that $1.3 billion, the “surplus” turns into an illusion. A related and glaringly obvious problem is that Florida has one of the highest rates in the nation for individuals without health insurance — not the kind of “exceptionalism” to brag about. Accepting federal funding for Medicaid expansion would end that unhappy distinction, a move bravely supported by Senate President Andy Gardiner. Here’s a perfect opportunity for Mr. Scott to expend some of the political capital that comes with a new second term, but he was silent on Tuesday instead of urging reluctant lawmakers to undergo a change of heart. Likewise, he had nothing to say about the scandal in state prisons. Mr. Scott needs to weigh in on a legislative proposal to wrest control away from the executive office and place it in the hands of an appointed commission, but on that topic, as well, Mr. Scott had nothing to say. Gov. Scott has shown leadership and good judgment in some areas, such as testing public school students. That makes it all the more baffling that he skirted the issue altogether in his speech, even though the epic statewide failure of the test system one day earlier underlined the urgent nature of the problem. The governor wisely ordered a partial halt to one series of tests recently, drawing praise from parents and teachers, but he passed up the chance to speak up about the obsession with testing. None of this augurs well for the upcoming legislative session. The Republican-led Legislature needs guidance on all of the above issues, as well as on others that carry equal urgency. Lawmakers may agree or disagree with the state’s chief executive — as will we — but getting his input and ideas is far preferable to leaving the impression that the state is rudderless. – The Miami Herald 030615a4.indd 1 TODAY IN HISTORY TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY: Pity the poor weather predictors I f they didn’t look so prosperous in their expensive suits and dresses, I would feel sorry for TV weather predictors. They can’t win. When they get the forecast right, nobody says anything. When they get it wrong, everybody says something. In North Korea, getting the forecast wrong might even get you killed. You may remember last year when Kim Jong Un visited his meteorological centers, upset that they were sending out “too many incorrect” weather forecasts. Bad for the economy, the leader said. He may have been blaming it all on outdated equipment, but North Korean meteorologists were uncomfortable just the same. The Washington Post reported that “the strain on the faces of those being lectured (was) quite evident.” And CNN described Kim as appearing “red-faced” during his visits. I’ve seen photos of Kim, and it’s not the weather people he should be most angry with. It’s his barber. But even in this country, meteorologists might predict a lynching when they miss a forecast by two time zones. One problem is, they try to outdo each other. If one TV station offers a five-day forecast, the competitor comes up with a seven-day outlook. Shoot, no one knows for sure what the weather will be like tomorrow, much less a week from now. And those annual outlooks in the “Old Farmer’s Almanac” are fairy tales. The one who irritates me is the TV weatherperson who caters to people expecting a mild, sunny day every day. We can be in a tremen- dous drought—hasn’t rained in six weeks—and finally there’s a chance for rain in the forecast. The meteorologist will rate the rainy day a 4—which means a bad day—and then practically apologize that your shoes might get wet if you venture outside. Regular rain is a good thing. Ask a farmer. Even snow can be a good thing. Ask a ski resort. Freezing rain, well, I see no good purpose for water that freezes when it hits the trees, which break and uproot and fall on power lines, leaving people in the cold and refrigerators in the warm and power company crews in misery. Let’s rate that weather a 2, maybe a 1. We had freezing rain a couple of weeks ago. A huge tree fell across the road that leads to our road, knocking out power for three days and holding scores of people hostage. The first night without heat, my wife and I turned in at 8:30, our bed laden with quilts. The next night, we played Scrabble by candlelight and hit the sack at 9:30. The third night, we were able to get our car out, and we bedded down in my wife’s sister’s warm home. Obviously, predicting the weather is a gamble, and these meteorologists do the best they can. So to make up for my criticism, I plan to write a letter of thanks to the next weather predictor who gets his or her seven-day forecast exactly right. But that might take a while.

On March 6, 1857, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Dred Scott v. Sandford that Scott, a slave, was not an American citizen and could not sue for his freedom in federal court. ON THIS DATE: In 1834, the city of York in Upper Canada was incorporated as Toronto. In 1836, the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, fell to Mexican forces after a 13-day siege. In 1853, Verdi’s opera “La Traviata” premiered in Venice, Italy. In 1933, a national bank holiday declared by President Franklin D. Roosevelt aimed at calming panicked depositors went into effect. Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, wounded in an attempt on Roosevelt’s life the previous month, died at a Miami hospital at age 59. In 1935, retired Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., died in Washington two days before his 94th birthday. In 1953, Georgy Malenkov was named premier of the Soviet Union a day after the death of Josef Stalin. In 1965, actress Margaret Dumont, perhaps best remembered for playing the foil in Marx Brothers comedies, died in Hollywood at age 82. In 1967, the daughter of Josef Stalin, Svetlana Alliluyeva, appeared at the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi and declared her intention to defect to the West. In 1970, a bomb being built inside a Greenwich Village townhouse by the radical Weathermen accidentally went off, destroying the house and killing three group members. In 1995, “The Jenny Jones Show” taped an episode on samesex crushes during which Jonathan Schmitz learned his secret admirer was an acquaintance, Scott Amedure; three days later, Schmitz fatally shot Amedure. TEN YEARS AGO: Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena said American soldiers gave no warning before they opened fire on the car carrying her to the Baghdad airport, killing the Italian agent who’d just won her freedom after a month in captivity. The White House called the shooting a “horrific accident” and restated its promise to investigate fully. FIVE YEARS AGO: Voters in Iceland resoundingly rejected a $5.3 billion plan to repay Britain and the Netherlands for debts spawned by the collapse of an Icelandic bank. ONE YEAR AGO: Ukraine lurched toward breakup as lawmakers unanimously declared they wanted to join Russia and planned to put the decision to voters; President Barack Obama condemned the move and the West imposed the first real sanctions against Russia.

Yardolo said she had been admitted to the Chinese-run Ebola treatment center in the Paynesville district of Monrovia on Feb. 18. A mother of five, she is originally from the northeastern county of Nimba near the borders with Guinea and Ivory Coast, but lives in Monrovia where she teaches English at a church-run school. The St. Paul’s Bridge community where she resides and works had become the last “hotspot” for Ebola cases in Monrovia, according to Tolbert Nyenswah, Assistant Health Minister and head of the country’s Ebola response. Yardolo’s release brings Liberia hope after about a year of battling the deadly Ebola virus, which killed more than 4,100 people in this West African country. There are no other confirmed cases of Ebola in the country, and as such Liberia can begin to count up to 42 days to be declared Ebola free in keeping with World Health Organization protocols and standards, Nyenswah said Wednesday. He challenged all Liberians to commit themselves to achieving “zero Ebola infections” by rigidly abiding by the anti-Ebola regulations. Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has said no country can be declared Ebola free until all the other countries have no cases. Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea have been hardest hit in the yearlong Ebola outbreak, which is estimated to 030615a6.indd 1 have left more than 9,800 people dead. “This is an encouraging sign for Liberia. However, there is no room for complacency as the number of new Ebola cases in the region has risen this week,” said Vickie Hawkins, director of Medecins Sans Frontieres UK. “People move easily over the porous borders that separate Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, so until 42 days pass without a new case in any of the three worst affected countries we need to remain vigilant.” The WHO on Wednesday reported 132 new Ebola cases last week, an increase from the 99 cases reported the previous week. The agency said the spread of Ebola remains “widespread” in Sierra Leone and noted that cases have jumped both there and in Guinea. Nine new cases were reported in a 24-hour period, according to an update from the Sierra Leone government on Tuesday. “There is always the risk of re-infection. We’re still seeing a lot of suspected and probable cases in Liberia,” said Sebastian Funk, an Ebola expert at London’s School of Hygiene and Tropical Medecine. “Ebola was first introduced to Liberia from Guinea and I see no reason why that wouldn’t happen again if it is still circulating in Guinea.” Funk said that continued resistance to aid efforts in Guinea could be driving the spread there. According to WHO data, both Guinea and Sierra Leone have recorded more than a dozen unsafe burials in the past several weeks, while Liberia hasn’t reported any unsafe burials since mid-February. Unsafe burials, where friends and family members are in close contact with the body of an Ebola victim, have often sparked explosive spread of the disease during the outbreak.

Not being able to trace potential cases means health officials in Guinea and Sierra Leone don’t know where many new cases are coming from. Resistance to Ebola containment efforts also continues to be a problem in Guinea and Sierra Leone, which have both reported numerous “security incidents” or other forms of refusal to cooperate. Since late February, Liberia has only reported just one such event. The U.N. health agency said Thursday it will start largescale testing of an experimental Ebola vaccine in Guinea on Saturday to see how effective it might be in preventing future outbreaks of the deadly virus. 324 St. Johns Avenue • Palatka, FL 386-385-3787 - AZALEA FESTIVAL DEALS House Juice “Buried Treasures” BUY 2, GET 1 FREE Premium Juice “Enchanted Elixirz” 14.99 $ Raffle Tickets ea. $ 5.00 Sigelei 150w iPV3 150w Prizes!

The softball team has only one player among the state’s top five in any major statistical category – Hunter Scharf, tied for third with 10 pitching victories – yet the Vikings are higher and hotter than they’ve ever been, at least in two decades as a fastpitch program. They’re ranked sixth in this week’s Florida College System Activities Association coaches’ poll, up two spots from last week. Thursday’s split with PascoHernando State – they lost the first game – ended their win streak at 10. That’s still the longest on campus this year, two better than the pair of eight-game streaks the nationally ranked baseball team has put together. It is a tribute to balance. “We’ve been able to put it all together. We have good pitching, good defense and we score some runs. Last year, one of the pieces always seemed to be missing,” coach Katie Brosky said Thursday morning. Not including the Pasco games, SJR State is batting .323 as a team, more than 70 points higher than their opponents. Freshman Savannah Montgomery leads the way at .459 with two home runs, seven doubles, a triple and 25 RBI. Sophomore Tikeya Strong is at .394 with a team-high 14 stolen bases. Sophomores Nicole Brock and Jennifer Valle are at .320 and .318 respectively, Valle with a team-high four home runs to go with 19 RBI. Though not an everyday player with a quarter the at-bats of Montgomery, Scharf is getting it done at the plate with a .368 batting average. Scharf is 10-4 with a 1.96 ERA and three shutouts. Brock (8-2) has three shutouts, too, along with a 1.59 ERA and a team-high 50 strikeouts. “We’ve got a great group of kids and they’ve got an expectation to win and they set out and do it,” Brosky said. “They’re excited, but they’re not satisfied. They want to keep jumping in the pool. They have goals and being at the top of the (Mid-Florida) Conference is one of those goals.” It is a goal both admirable and formidable. If the Vikings’ early success is a novelty – they were a mere 17-31 last season – it is old hat to conference rivals Central Florida (24-2) and Seminole State (18-2), the No. 1 and No. 3 teams in the same FCSAA polls that has the Vikings sixth. Two other Mid-Florida teams, FSCJacksonville and Santa Fe, are receiving votes. Brosky isn’t blinking in the face of strong opposition, though, and she wants her team to share her confidence as the conference opener approaches Tuesday at Lake-Sumter State. “We feel we can hang in there with any team,” she said. “Central Florida scores a lot of runs, but they also give up runs. Seminole doesn’t give up many runs. But we can score. “(The poll) allows them to see what other people think of them. It fires us up and makes us want to be at the top of the poll.” n Unnoticed in the first two Prep Zone state baseball polls this season, 7-1 Palatka High may receive – and deserve – some attention if it wins at No. 10 Brooksville Hernando on Saturday.

The Rams swept the four lightest weight classes on their way to the Putnam County championship at Crescent City. They also won the two heaviest classes while ringing up 42 points. Palatka edged Crescent City for second place, 32-30. “It’s a very big deal and it’s a step in the right direction for our program – not just the weightlifting program, but the football program because these guys play football,” said Roy Zook, an assistant coach in both sports at IHS. “A lot of them had personal bests. Our big thing is every week we want them to have a new personal best. Coach (Mike) Cullison and I are very pleased with these young men. “It’s good to be a Ram.” Interlachen’s winners began with Tristan Waldrup, who benched 140 pounds and cleaned 120 for a 260 total in the 119-pound weight class. The firsts kept coming with Brandon Figueroa at 129 (175-155–330), Jonathan Beck at 139 (170-160–330) and DeAndre Minter at 154 (200195–395). Teammate Juan Vasquez matched Beck’s total in the 139 class, but Beck got the nod because he was lighter at weigh-in. The heaviest total of the day, appropriately, was put up by Interlachen heavyweight Joel Makatura with 340-265–605. The Putnam Track and Field Rams’ Jermaine Evans won the 238pound class at 315-265–580. Palatka and Crescent City each won two classes. The Panthers got a 255-250–505 performance from Wynton Givens in the 169-pound class. Ja’twan Honor claimed 219 with a 290-290–580 figure. The Raiders’ firsts came from Dennis Barlow at 183 pounds (230190–420) and Dadrian Ellis at 199 pounds (270-200–470).

Below, Palatka’s Bryan Williams was the shot put winner. Just Before Dark Crescent City girls, Palatka boys are team champions By Mark Blumenthal A Palatka Daily News s the only lights on an otherwise dark Palatka High School track were beamed from the adjacent tennis courts, birthday girl Sanika Smith heard Crescent City’s name as winner of the Putnam County track and field championship meet on Thursday. “Glad to finally win something,” said the Raider senior as she grabbed the trophy, one that has not been captured by the school in a long, long time. The Raiders scored 61 points, beating Palatka with 55. Interlachen finished with 13 points. Palatka’s boys scored 97 points to once again win the team competition, ahead of a short-handed Crescent City team, which scored 55 points. Interlachen scored four. The Most Outstanding Performers came from the second-place teams. Steven Simmons of Crescent City won for the boys and Palatka’s Genisha Wilson won for the girls. It became hard to see as the final 4x400 relay was run with darkness approaching. Meet director and PHS coach Steven Gonzalez said it wasn’t worth putting the lights on for what would have been amounted to 15 minutes. The meet was held unusually early this year compared to previous years, according to Gonzalez, because of spring break and a busy schedule involving the three county schools. And the meet suffered for it: n Palatka’s Ka’ven Berry, a sure winner of the 400-meter run and a medal favorite at the state 2A meet, is nursing a hamstring injury. He’s expected back soon. n Like Berry, Palatka’s Jaelyn Hendrieth was a Daily News Prep Track Performer of the Year in 2014. She’s been out since spraining her ankle in a basketball state playoff game. Gonzalez said she was cleared on Wednesday, but he held her back due to a lack of conditioning and practice. See TRACK, Page 2B DOVER, Del. — NASCAR driver Kurt Busch will not face criminal charges over claims by his ex-girlfriend that he smashed her head into a bedroom wall and choked her, Delaware prosecutors said Thursday. The decision by the state attorney general’s office ends the criminal investigation of Busch, known in NASCAR circles as “The Outlaw,” over allegations by Patricia Driscoll, whom Busch’s attorneys portrayed as a scorned woman who tried to destroy Busch’s career after he ended their relationship. State prosecutors said there was not enough evidence to bring criminal charges. “After a thorough consideration of all of the available information about the case, it is determined that the admissible evidence and available witnesses would likely be insufficient to meet the burden of establishing beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Busch committed a crime during the September 26th incident,” the attorney general’s office said in a prepared statement. A spokesman for the Dover Police Department, which investigated the incident and gave its findings to the attorney general’s office, said the department respects the decision and has no further comment. In a prepared statement, Busch thanked prosecutors for carefully considering the evidence and his supporters for standing by him “throughout this nightmare.” “As I have said from the beginning, I did not commit domestic abuse,” Busch said. “I look forward to being back in racing as soon as possible and moving on with my life.” Driscoll said in a prepared statement she was disappointed that “full justice” was not served. Driscoll, who had made the rounds of television shows after being granted a no-contact order, also suggested media coverage of the case was marked by “distortions” and “sensationalism.” She offered no specifics. Mark Dycio, an attorney for Driscoll, suggested the decision not to bring charges may have been based not on law, but on Delaware prosecutors’ desire to avoid “a media circus.” PREP ROUNDUP Lopsided baseball victories for Warriors, Raiders Palatka Daily News Vinny Dodge won for the third time in a week as visiting Peniel Baptist Academy overwhelmed Hope Christian of Bradford County, 16-1. Dodge (3-1) struck out nine, walked one, hit a batter and allowed one hit over four scoreless innings of the five-inning game. Only one of his wins in the last seven days was a seven-inning complete game; his other win came in relief. The Warriors (3-6) led 13-0 after three innings. Dodge, Kenyon Varner and Logan Morris had two hits apiece for Peniel. Both Varner and Austin Spedden doubled and scored four runs. Dodge scored three runs. Peniel’s other hits were a double by Ariel Leto and singles by Dominic Huerta and Frankie Comer. n Four Crescent City batters had two hits each in a 13-0 rout at Hawthorne. Chase Mascia went 2-for-3 with a double for the Raiders (4-4). Dillon Dunnigan, Brandon Reiter and Ryne Beasley were all 2-4, Beasley with a triple. Max Jackson and winning pitcher Dakota Horvath both singled. Horvath got his first win of the year, striking out seven, walking five and allowing three hits over five scoreless innings. The Raiders host Wildwood tonight in a District 8-1A contest. n Jase Foshee’s one-out double in the fifth ended the no-hit bid of Santa Fe’s Spencer Haire, but almost everything else went the Raiders’ way in an 11-1 defeat of visiting Interlachen. Foshee went on to score on Kyle McCole’s single. The Rams fell to 2-8 overall and 3-1 in District 5-4A. Santa Fe (8-1, 3-1) had 13 hits.

Was Thursday the only day between the middle of February and the first of April that both events could have been held, even accounting for spring break? Were there not some shot put and discus people that would have liked to participate in both? No way with the track meet in Palatka and the weightlifting competition in Crescent City. Is this the best way to showcase these sports, to have them compete for attention with each other along with baseball and softball and tennis? Come on, folks. n Palatka High’s boys won their first match of the season, 4-3, over visiting St. Augustine Florida D&B. Nailing down wins for the Panthers were Jordan Frederick (first singles), Cesar Crego Loureiro, Bradley Tilton and the first doubles team of Frederic and Crego Loureiro. n Palatka girls dropped a 6-1 decision at home to Florida D&B. The lone win for the Panthers (1-5) came from Melanie Lehne at third singles. The Panthers are coming off a humble 11-13 campaign in which they were throttled by the playoff teams from District 4-5A, Clay and Ponte Vedra, which goes a long way to explain their anonymity coming into 2015. They lost 4-3 to Hernando in the Azalea Bowl two weeks ago and if they can turn the tables Saturday in Brooksville, the state is bound to notice. Unbeaten Fort Lauderdale Archbishop McCarthy is ranked first. Clay and Ponte Vedra are unranked. n Why, oh why, were the Putnam County track and icated.” Cook said last year that one of his goals was to have a program that has grown the same way that Gonzalez has grown his at Palatka. On Thursday, the Raiders took a big step. “The ultimate goal was to win,” he said. “Just about everybody hit their personal bests and some didn’t, but I was proud of each and every one of my girls. All of them stepped up. They knew the challenge out there and came out and worked hard.” Emonai Wynn helped the Raiders’ cause by winning the triple jump (26foot-4 1/2) and 100-meter high hurdles (22.04). Artia Williams won the high jump with a 4-2 leap and Smith claimed the 300-meter intermediate hurdles. The 4x100 relay team of Larissa Addison, Wynn, Nadia Ghousani and Williams won at 1:03.27. “We’ll use this meet as a building block for the rest of the season,” Cook said. “We still have districts and regionals to go and I’d like to have more than just one person to state this year (last year, it was senior Akia Berrien for the boys team).” Lack of depth hurt Palatka. Wilson had a big day, winning the long jump with a leap of 14-9, the 100 (12.71), the 200 (27.03) and the 400 (1:06). Michele Dampier won the 1,600 (6:54) and 3,200 (16:07), Kaylie Vinson won the 800 (3:18.22), Abrielle Robertson took first in the shot put (30-3) and the 4x800 (Vinson, Regan Sheehan, Lacey Jones and Dampier in 12:48.95) and 4x400 (Wilson, Sheehan, Vinson and Jones in 4:59.69) finished first as well. “We only had six girls out there and they did well for themselves,” Gonzalez said. “Hopefully, Jaelyn will be ready TENNIS FLORIDA LOTTERY THURSDAY 030615b2.indd 1 (4), Abbott (4), Cassels (5) and Cassels, Abbott (5).

Pasco manages split with Vikings Palatka Daily News The 10-game winning streak came to an end for the St. Johns River State College softball team on Thursday. No problem, though, since the Vikings were able to salvage a split against Pasco-Hernando to win three of four games this season against the Conquistas. After Pasco-Hernando won the first game, 6-1, the Vikings used a 3-for-4, three-run, one-RBI performance from Tikeya Strong to capture the nightcap, 5-2, and improve to 19-7, one victory away from coach Katie Brosky’s fourth 20-win season in her five seasons. The Conquistas (6-12) rode Clarissa Lynch’s arm to victory in the first game as she went the distance on a three-hitter, walking two and striking out two. Haley Wildes and Julie Leduc each went 1-for-3 while Francesca Gazarato delivered a hit. Strong drove in the only run, scored by pinchrunner Erin Klein. In the second game, the Vikings got to Lynch for 10 hits. While Strong had a big game second game, so did Wildes, who was 3-for-3 with a run and two RBI. Savannah Montgomery, Jen Valle, Leduc and Ally Resendes had one hit apiece with Valley driving in two runs. Wildes (1-0), a freshman from Jacksonville Bolles, walked seven, but gave up three hits and struck out two to get the win. The Vikings will be back in action this afternoon, weather permitting, against Grand Rapids (Mich.) Community College starting at 2:30. SPORTS BRIEFS GOLF Holmes fires 62 at Doral DORAL — J.B. Holmes never liked the old Blue Monster at Doral because he thought it was too easy for a World Golf Championship. He said this with a straight face Thursday after a 10-under 62 that tied the tournament record at the Cadillac Championship, gave him a four-shot lead and left the rest of this world-class field to wonder just how he managed. “I was able to hit the shots where I envisioned and hit good shots, and today the putter was on,” Holmes said. “Put that combination together, you do everything pretty good, you’re going to shoot a good score.” He made it sound as easy as it looked. Except that Trump National Doral wasn’t all that easy for everyone else. Rory McIlroy again felt tentative with his swing and shot 40 on his opening nine holes before finishing without a par on his last six holes — an eagle, three birdies and two bogeys that allowed him to salvage a 73. The world’s No. 1 player has shot 73-74-73 in his three rounds in Florida this year. COLLEGE BASKETBALL UNF makes Atlantic Sun title game JACKSONVILLE — Dallas Moore scored a career-high 36 points and top-seeded North Florida advanced to the Atlantic Sun tournament championship game with a 71-57 victory over fifthseeded Lipscomb on Thursday night. The Ospreys (22-11) will be hosts for Sunday’s title game against third-seeded South Carolina Upstate, a one-point winner over No. 2 Florida Gulf Coast. North Florida came in ranked third in the nation in 3-pointers made with 297, but hit just 6 of 24 against Lipscomb. Moore made four of his five, however, from 3-point range and 12 of 17 overall to spur the Ospreys. –Associated Press Weight CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B “I was a little frustrated. I had a couple of guys playing baseball,” said Crescent City coach Tim Sandersfield. “But I was pretty pleased. We competed pretty well with our youth. I’m interested to see what happens in sub-sectionals (March 16).” “I think we did really well,” said Palatka assistant coach Darrell Polite. “We had a bunch of young guys in their first year. We’ll get back to our old tradition with a couple more years under their belt.” Interlachen’s second-place lifters were Vasquez and Jadon Beck (119 pounds). Palatka got seconds from Jimmy Kessler (129), Micah Harris (154), Quen Trowel (183), Paul Mast (238) and heavyweight Fredarien Sutton. Dantavious Kelly (169), Caleb Williams (199) and Dean Finch (219) were all second for Crescent City. Sutton had the meet’s biggest bench press at 375. to go next week for us.” As for Berry, Gonzalez said. “He’s frustrated. He ran in the first two meets we had in the season and he was probably at about 80 percent. If he was there, I know he’d have given (Simmons) a race in the 100 and 200. But right now, he’s just working hard at the gym and as I told him, the big picture for him is down the road.” A lot of other Panthers stepped up on Thursday, though. Sophomore Peyton Snyder was a double winner, capturing the 800 (2:14.69) and 1,600 (5:13). Eron Carter won the discus with a 138-8 toss, while Bryan Williams was first in the shot (42-3 1/2). Sammie Wright prevailed in the 110-meter high hurdles (20.20), Kendrick Aaron was first in the 400 (54.04), Derrick Gordon won the 300meter intermediate hurdles (47.59) and the Panthers won two relays. The MIDDAY PLAY 4 4-5-8-7 EVENING PLAY 4 9-5-6-5 4x800 team of Lavarus Smith, Jordan Dixon, Snyder and Aitor ArmasGarcia won in 9:36.93 and the final 4x400 relay unit of Aaron, Lutrell Smith, Lavarus Smith and De’Mareyae Givens prevailed in 3:41.08. In earning outstanding honors of the day, Crescent City’s Simmons won the 100 (10.91) and 200 (21.78) and anchored the 4x100 relay team of Dominic Owens, Camden Hensley and A.J. Jara in 45.88. Jara won the long jump with a 19-11 leap and Laron Fells was a winner in the triple jump (41-1 1/2) and high jump (5-8). David Garcia won the 3,200 for the Raiders in 15:12. Interlachen’s lone win of the day on either side came from Ariel Lucas in the discus with a throw of 87-2.

There is money to be made if you refuse to let personal problems that are beyond your control stymie your professional progress. Keeping your two lives separate will ensure success in both areas. Productivity should be your focus. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Overly sensitive family members will be hard to deal with. Do whatever it takes to avoid confrontations. Concentrate on finishing a creative project that you have been postponing. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Someone from your past will make a surprising contribution. This is not a good time to deal with government agencies or authority figures. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Negativity will be your downfall. Don’t allow self-doubt or indecisiveness to keep you from taking an advanced position.

War vet’s attack points to PTSD Yesterday’s Answer you can relate to. If you engage in activities that attract caring people, you will be appreciated for your contributions. SCORPIO CANCER (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) You work hard for your money, but reckless spending or unnecessary extravagance will wreak havoc on your budget. Be wary of anyone looking for a handout or donation. LEO (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Organize a pleasure trip or outing with a close friend. Tension with family members will leave you feeling dissatisfied and uptight. (June 21-July 22) Share your happiness with the people you love. Plan a family gathering or hook up with friends for some entertainment. An intellectual or physical challenge will stimulate your senses. (July 23-Aug. 22) Check out travel magazines and websites or visit a travel agent. The stimulation and inspiration you are looking for can be found in an exotic or out-of-the-way destination. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Don’t allow your frustration to cause an emotional outburst. Keep your opinions to yourself and think twice before you blurt out something you may regret. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Put extra effort into developing better connections with people Dear Harriette: My boyfriend just came back from Iraq. Last night, we got into a heated argument, and before I knew it, I found myself on the ground with a bruise on my neck and a sprained ankle. I never thought my boyfriend would hurt me. Meanwhile, my roommates freaked out, called the ambulance and after a long plea, I persuaded them not to call the cops. I know domestic violence is serious, but I never expected to be a victim to this foolery. I love my boyfriend. There’s a first time for everything, and I know our hearts are in sync. I think his behavior has something to do with his deployment for six months. Where should we go to get help? — Karen, Omaha, Neb. Dear Karen: You are right to be concerned and also smart not to automatically walk away so fast. Many veterans experience post-traumatic stress disorder after being on the battlefield. CAPRICORN AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Emotional pressure or personal issues will have you feeling pulled in two different directions. Take some time to pamper yourself. A day spent doing enjoyable activities will lessen your stress. fresh perspective on life. She’s family-oriented and believes in God, but she parties too much for my liking. Every time I ask her to spend time with me, she mentions going out to a bar or club when all I want to do is enjoy a flick at home with just her and me. Am I asking for too much? Should I continue this relationship knowing that she’s not ready to settle down? — Jordan, New York City Dear Jordan: What do you want? You say that “eventually” you want to settle down, but your story sounds as if you are ready to settle now, or at least figure out if this woman is the one with whom you would like to settle. That’s fine. But does she know that? If you want to take her off the dating market, you have to be ready to say so and present details on what you have in mind. Then she will have the proper information to be able to make an informed decision about her next steps. BRIDGE SAGITTARIUS (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) It’s time to put your financial, insurance and legal papers in order. Update contracts or agreements. An older individual will be able to provide some valuable advice. One of the symptoms of this disorder is being prone to violent outbursts. The good news is that help exists for veterans who need to process what has happened in their lives and learn how to manage the variety of physical, emotional and spiritual challenges that they may face in the wake of their experiences. Talk to your boyfriend, and ask him to get help so that he can get better and you can save your relationship. Urge him to get support. To find help, visit the VA website at ptsd.va.gov. If you have to put your foot down to get him to seek help, do so. Dear Harriette: I recently relocated to the New York City area as a single, 32-yearold man with no kids or previous marriages. However, I eventually want to settle down. Lately, I’ve been entertaining this “young thang” — 24 years old, to be exact — and I have to admit she has me sprung. She’s spunky and energetic, with a Robert Benchley, a humorist who died in 1945, said, “In America there are two classes of travel — first class, and with children.” In today’s deal there are two first-class problems. And if your children play bridge, show them this column. South is in three no-trump. After West leads the heart queen, how should declarer plan the play? And what should he do differently if the spade ace and spade two are exchanged between the North and South hands? In the given auction, North’s three-diamond rebid was gameinvitational. (If South had the spade ace as well, he would have rebid two spades, then the last two bids would have been the same.) South starts with seven top tricks: one spade, two hearts, two diamonds and two clubs. The obvious line for two more tricks is to play on diamonds, where only a 3-2 split is needed (a priori, 67.8 percent). To attack clubs requires a 3-3 break (a priori, 35.53 percent). And if the spade ace is in the South hand, that is the right line. Declarer should take the first trick and duck (lose) a diamond. However, with the spade ace in the dummy, South can get home if either diamonds are 3-2 or clubs are 3-3, which raises the a priori odds to 79.25 percent. Declarer, after taking trick one, should cash dummy’s top diamonds. If the suit splits 3-2, he plays a third round and coasts home with an overtrick. But when diamonds break badly, South turns to clubs and, with this layout, makes his contract. If your children do not play bridge, teach them immediately!
