In SOCSD, every
school was rated a C or
better.
Accountability grades,
which rate schools and
school districts on an A-F
scale, are based on sever-
al factors, including how
well students perform
and progress on end-
of-year assessments for
English Language Arts
and Mathematics. The
system also accounts for
how students perform on
fifth and eighth grade sci-
ence tests.
The state board voted
to approve ratings for all
but the Corinth School
District and four schools
that deal with special
populations. Corinth dis-
trict officials have said
the department reneged
on a deal to develop a
special grading system to
measure achievement on
an alternate curriculum
the district uses, but state
officials say they have to
give all schools a grade
under federal law. Using
the same reasoning, the
district graded the Mis-
sissippi School for the
Blind, Mississippi School
for the Deaf, and schools
in Harrison County and
the Pascagoula-Gauti-
er school districts that
serve only special educa-
tion students. All four of

Ex-sheriff to plead guilty to taking
bribe from drug dealer
OXFORD — A former Missis-
sippi sheriff plans to plead guilty to
a charge in connection with bribes
that prosecutors say he took to pro-
tect a drug dealer for 15 years.
Court documents show a hearing
is set Nov. 1 for former Tallahatchie
County Sheriff William Brewer to
plead guilty to a count associated
with $6,500 in cash that prosecutors
say he took from the drug dealer in
June.
Brewer this week agreed to stay
in jail until the hearing after officials
accused him of violating his bail
terms.
He faces up to 20 years in prison
and a $250,000 fine.
Ex-teacher indicted on charge
of enticing a minor for sex
OXFORD — A former high
school math teacher in Mississippi
has been indicted on a charge that
she enticed a student to meet her for
sex.
Molly Wray resigned from Lafay-
ette High School. She faces a charge
of enticing a minor for sexual pur-
poses.
Conviction would carry a sen-
tence of up to 10 years in prison.
A meeting with a 17-year-old boy
allegedly took place in November
but wasn’t reported until this year.
The Lafayette County superinten-
dent passed the claim to the sheriff’s
office.
The Oxford Eagle reports a cir-
cuit judge delayed Wray’s arraign-
ment at the request of defense attor-
ney Tony Farese.
Wray was charged in June and
released on $10,000 bail. She waived
a probable cause hearing, which
is required before a teacher can be
charged criminally.

Our View

CAFB remains crucial partner to Columbus, Lowndes

Imagine for a moment that
a company announced that
it was opening in Lowndes
County and would produce
$250 million dollars in eco-
nomic impact each year. We
would hardly be able to con-
tain our excitement, right?
Yet, for the past 10 years,
that’s what Columbus Air
Force Base has meant to
our economy. Do the math,
that’s $2.5 billion worth of
economic impact in the span
of a decade. Quite frankly,
it’s hard to imagine what our
community would be like
without CAFB.
In fact, if you do remember
what our community was like
before pilot training began at
what would become Colum-
bus Air Force Base, you
would also remember Frank-
lin Roosevelt as President and
Paul Johnson as Governor
of Mississippi. Since 1941,
Columbus Air Force Base
has been a major economic
engine for Lowndes County
and the city of Columbus.
Thursday, the Base Com-
munity Council held its fall
luncheon where Col. Saman-
tha Weeks, who assumed
command of the 14th Flying
Training Wing in August,
spoke to more than 100
community members who
are actively engaged in the
council’s efforts to maintain
and grow the relationship
between the base and the
community.
Their work in developing
a partnership with the base
is important, not only for its
efforts to help the Air Force
with its important mission in
training pilots who protect
our nation, but in making
sure the base is so intrinsi-
cally woven into the fabric of
the community that it cannot
be reasonably separated. The
viability of CAFB depends
heavily on its mission, but it’s
worth remembering that the
mission doesn’t necessarily
have to be performed in our
community. From time to
time, Congress takes a cold,
dispassionate look at our
nation’s military facilities to
determine which facilities
are needed through a process
called Base Realignment and
Closure. Over the years, mil-
itary installations have come
and gone throughout the
country. In our community,
Columbus Air Force Base has
come and stayed. That’s held
true for 77 years now.
Given the Air Force’s
shortage of pilots, there is
no foreseeable circumstance
that suggests CAFB will not
continue to fulfill its mission
here in Lowndes County. But
circumstances change over
time and the relationship
between the base and our
community remains essential
to that continued partnership.
As much as CAFB has
meant to our community, it is
important to remember that
what is neglected is often
lost.
Guarding against that sort
of complacency is not a job
that should be left to a council
of citizens. Each of us plays
a role in making sure our
CAFB neighbors are treated
well and appreciated because,
quite frankly, we cannot
imagine what it would be like
if they were not here.

Now there’s even

more evidence to
show politicians are
wrong to oppose
climate change plans
Earth is rapidly headed for a place of no return,
where climate change will leave the planet a more
hostile place for people, plants and animals.
The impacts and costs are greater and coming
faster than expected, according to a comprehensive
new assessment by the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change (IPCC) that says we have about a
dozen years to come to grips with the issue.
But there is some hope. The IPCC also found
that reducing global warming by even half a degree
Celsius would dramatically reduce deaths from heat,
drought and disease; the loss of species from dimin-
ishing habitat; and submerged land caused by melt-
ing ice caps and rising oceans, with the loss of homes
and livelihoods that would accompany such flooding.
Half a degree less of warming could even save some
of the world’s coral reefs.
That’s why the panel is urging world leaders to
keep global warming under 1.5 degrees C rather than The WORLD

climate change conference in 2015. It’s particularly
sobering news since the world — based on current
warming trends and lacklustre carbon reduction
commitments to date — is set to blow by both num-
bers and see the climate heat up 3 C by the end of the
century.
If there was ever reason to doubt the life-or-
death impact of global warming, that’s long gone.
And yet the message is still not getting through, in
part because so many politicians are keen to play a
politically expedient short game rather than focus on
the environmental and economic imperatives that will
become all too apparent over the longer term.

side. Her fight still con-
tinues with chemothera-
py treatments every other
month in Starkville.
Powers, who lives in
West Point, continues
traveling nearly 700 miles
to support her daughter
in Chicago. She took the
train to visit after her
daughter had a double
mastectomy and again
once chemotherapy
began.
McKinney would fre-
quently ask her mother
to visit and even ask her
to stay longer. But, since
Powers still receives
her own treatments, her
visits aren’t as long as
either wish. Powers said
her daughter has always
been a strong woman,
and watching McKinney
struggle was out of the
norm.
“Angie has always
been my independent
child,” Powers said.
“Even when she was a
little girl, she could do
everything herself.”
‘I didn’t want
to be sick’
McKinney said she
first felt the lump in her
breast March 2017. She
didn’t go to doctor then
— she waited. Getting
cancer wasn’t on her
radar. After receiving her
diagnosis in February,
she was quick to blame
herself, she said.
Though now, she said
she only holds herself
accountable for delaying
and hopes her example
will teach others not to do
what she did.
“I would want every-
one to know, whenever
there is a difference in
your breasts or under
your arm, don’t ignore it,”
McKinney said. “It will
determine your entire
treatment plan and your
outcome.”
McKinney would have
to have chemotherapy
in order to have a full re-
covery. Her mind flashed
back to her mother’s
difficult treatments in
Chicago. She said she
couldn’t imagine having
to go through the same
process.
“I just knew that I
didn’t want to be sick,”
McKinney said. “I have
never been ill in my life.
Then, I’m going to have

of her sisters accompa-
nied their dad, a master
sergeant in the Air Force,
on a mission to refuel
fighter jets over the Atlan-
tic.
“I remember going up
to my dad and telling him,
‘That’s what I want to be
when I grow up.’ He said,
‘Girls can’t do that.’ At the
time he was right,” Weeks
said.
But the times changed.
By the time Weeks fin-
ished high school, those
gender barriers had fall-
en.
“So much of success in
life depends on good luck
and good timing,” Weeks
said. “I had both.”
Weeks graduated from
the Air Force Academy
and trained as a pilot in
Nevada, emerging as a
fighter pilot and fulfilling
that 6-year-old’s dream.
Today, in her role as
wing commander, her
mission is to help others
fulfill a similar dream, but
Weeks said the mission
goes beyond that.
Only about 20 percent
of the 2,200 airmen at
Columbus Air Force Base
are flight instructors or
student pilots. Weeks’
goal, she said, is to make
sure all base personnel
understand their roles in
the overall mission and
the critical role they play.
The formula for that is
simple: Cultivate Airmen.
Create Pilots. Connect.

remains positive thanks
in part to her mother’s
constant uplifting phone
calls.
“We’re there for each
other,” Powers said.
“We try not to talk about
cancer. We talk about the
grand-babies. We laugh
about the twins. We have
so much to laugh and
talk about, we just try to
forget about cancer.”
McKinney said those
positive phone calls have
helped keep her from
feeling defeated through-
out her fight.
“You want to be
positive, but it gets hard
sometimes,” McKinney
said. “You don’t want to
be a victim, you want to
be victorious.”
Together, mother
and daughter continue
their fight to becoming
cancer-free. McKinney

registered nurse. While
attending Chamberlain
School of Nursing, she
was simultaneously
receiving 18 weeks of
chemotherapy. She said,
with the help of God, she
never felt sick until she
graduated college.
The day after gradu-
ation, the chemotherapy
began its toll on her body.
She lost her hair and felt
weaker and weaker each
day.
“Every morning, it’s
hard to get out of bed,”
McKinney said. “It’s
very, very debilitating. It
was awful. It’s like you’re
practically dead.”
McKinney’s inspira-
tion to push through not
only college, but treat-
ment was simple: Her
family.
“My motivation was,
I was a mom of four and
I always wanted the best
life I could have for my
kids and myself,” McK-
inney said. “All my boys
are grown now. I thought,
there’s no way I went
through all of this for
what it is we do here, the
answer is we train pilots,”
Weeks said. “That’s true,
of course, but there is far
more to it than that.
“In one year’s time,
these pilots will earn
their wings and go off to
some combat aircraft and
they’ll be doing the na-
tion’s business very soon,”
she added. “That takes
every airman to get that
job done. We all need to
understand what mission
support does, how we rely
on one another to get that
accomplished.”
That goes beyond the
confines of CAFB and into
the broader community.
“That’s part of the con-
nection we emphasize,”
Weeks said. “Columbus
Air Force Base doesn’t
exist on an island. We not
only need to ensure our
airmen connect with each
other, but also connect
our families and our com-
munity.”
Each year, CAFB con-
tributes about $250 mil-
lion in economic impact
to the greater Columbus
community, but the base’s
importance is not always
measured in dollars,
Weeks noted.
“When these airmen
leave for their next as-
signments, they take Co-
lumbus with them,” she
said. “The relationship be-
tween the airmen and the
community is a connec-
tion that runs very deep.”

STARKVILLE — Bob Shoop

has called the job of a college
football defensive coordinator the
toughest in sports.
The hardest job on a defense
might be the Nickel spot, which Landrews

been self inflicted, to be
honest with you, but we
have toughed it through,
and we came back in the
second half and kept doing
what we did in the first half.
It just paid off a little more,”
said Tackett, who had only
four seniors see action.
“I am really proud of this
group. It was a good, hard-
fought win.”
Miller, a 5-foot-8,
160-pound running back,
played a key role on Home-
coming after not practicing
earlier in the week due to
an injury and only going
through a walk-through.
Still, Miller responded with
32 carries for a career-high
211 yards. He accounted
for all 22 yards on the final
scoring drive, a four-play
push to pay dirt, that was
set up by a 72-yard kickoff
return by Tray Ivy.
“Without my offensive
line, I wouldn’t be here,”
Miller said. “They do it all
for me. I am just going off
their energy. When they
give me the energy and tell
me to keep going, that’s
what I do.”
An interception by Mi-
chael Chambers sealed
the deal with 55 seconds
remaining and set off a
celebration on the New
Hope sideline. It capped a
dominating ground game
that had 51 carries for 279
yards.
The plays down the
stretch enabled New Hope
to overcome 14 penalties,
including five pass interfer-
ence calls. The Trojans also
had other untimely penal-
ties and dropped passes
that stalled drives. Just
before halftime, each team
had a player ejected follow-
ing a melee near midfield
following a punt. There
weren’t any other incidents
in the second half.
The missteps cost New
Hope a chance to build on
its dominance in the first
half, when it held a 202-46

two teams in each pool advance
to the medal rounds. The remain-
ing teams will play consolation
games. Pools will be announced
at the Head of Delegation meet-
ings in April.
The World University Games
are organized by the Internation-
al University Sports Federation
and held every other year. The
event, which features 18 sports,
is open to men and women ages
17-24 who are or have been in the
past year a student at a college or
university.
MSU will be the third full
team from a women’s college pro-
gram to represent USA Team in
the event. Maryland played in the
2017 event, while Charlotte and a
Big 12 Conference-fielded team
competed in the 2007 and 2003
events, respectively.
It will mark the sec-
ond-straight year Vic Schaefer’s
squad has traveled to Italy. In Au-
gust, MSU went 3-0 in a trip that
featured stops in Rome, Florence,
and Como.
n Team Maroon wins Game 1 of Fall World
Series: At Starkville, Team Maroon used two big
innings Thursday to earn a 9-4 victory against
Team White in Game 1 of the Fall World Series at
Dudy Noble Field.
“It was a good night, with a really good crowd,
and I loved the atmosphere,” MSU coach Chris
Lemonis said. “Our guys are really competing,
which is great to see. Peyton (Plumlee) settled in
and pitched well to get the win. Jared Liebelt and
Colby White helped solidify the bullpen and close
it out. I’d like to see our defense play a little better
and our pitchers pound the strike zone a bit more,
but overall it was a good night.”
Plumlee started for Team Maroon and al-
lowed two runs (one earned) on four hits in four
innings. The senior struck out four and walked
one. Liebelt threw two innings of one-run relief.
White allowed one run in one inning.
For Team White, Jack Eagan allowed three
runs and six hits in three innings. He walked three
and struck out two. Bryce Brock, Denver Mc-
Quary, and Cole Gordon each threw one inning.
Brock and Gordon allowed three runs.
Maroon broke the game open with three runs
in the third and three more in the sixth.
Landon Jordan’s RBI double opened the
scoring for Team White.
JT Ginn worked a bases-loaded walk to tie
the game.
Maroon took the lead with a run in the bottom
of the second on a Jake Mangum sacrifice fly.
Rowdey Jordan hit the first of his two home runs
to tie the game at 2.
Team Maroon took the lead for good on a
Dustin Skelton home run with one out in the third.
After the first 1-2-3 inning of the game in the top
of the fourth, Maroon scored three runs on an RBI
single by Josh Hatcher had an RBI single, Skelt-
on’s RBI groundout, and Anthony Hickman’s RBI
single.
Jordan had an RBI single in the firth to cut
it to 6-3.
In the sixth, Team Maroon used a squeeze
bunt by Skelton to score the first run of the inning.
After a Benjamin Bell sacrifice bunt pushed run-
ners to second and third, Jake Mangum’s two-run
single made it 9-3.
Jordan’s second home run accounted for the
final run in the top of the seventh.
MSU will play Game 2 of the Fall World Se-
ries at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Dudy Noble Field. Ad-
mission is free. Fans can enter through the Left
Field Lounge entrance and sit in right field. No
access to the grandstands will be granted.
n No. 23 women’s soccer team will take
on No. 5 Texas A&M: At College Station, Texas,
the No. 23 women’s soccer team will take on No.
5 Texas A&M at 7:30 p.m. Friday night in a South-
eastern Conference match.
MSU (9-3-1, 2-3-1 SEC) will try to earn its first
victory in the series.
Texas A&M boasts the No. 2 Ratings Percent-
age Index (RPI) in the nation and is the reigning
SEC tournament champion.
“It’s a very loud, crowded, hostile environ-
ment, so that’s going to be a great opportunity
and experience for our team,” MSU coach Tom
Anagnost said. “I want to make sure everyone’s
ready and on the front foot to take advantage of
that opportunity.
A win would give MSU its second victory
against a team in the RPI top 10 this year. It would
also mark MSU’s first 10-win season since 2001.
n Volleyball team will take on Arkansas:
At Fayetteville, Arkansas, the volleyball team (5-
13, 1-4) will take on Arkansas (7-9, 1-5) at 7 p.m.
Friday in a SEC match. The match will be broad-
cast on SEC Network+.
“It is going to be another tough weekend as
we hit the road for our match on Friday against
a tough Arkansas team,” MSU coach Julie Darty
said. “This league is tough, top to bottom, and you
have to bring it every time you step on the court.
We are going to continue to talk about the process
and focus on taking steps in the right direction.
For us, it’s always about our serve and pass game
and staying dialed into the game plan. I am ex-
cited for this group to continue to get better and
more efficient. Every time we compete, we want
to get a little bit better. I am hopeful that we can
stay true to the process and keep on grinding as
this season continues.”
n Women’s tennis team will open play
at ITA Southern Regional Championships: At
Oxford, the women’s tennis team will begin play
Friday at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association
(ITA) Southern Regional Championships.
The four-day competition will feature individ-
uals from more than 10 programs from the region,
including SEC foes Alabama, Auburn, and LSU.
Singles finalists and the doubles champion
will advance to the Oracle ITA National Fall Cham-
pionships on Nov. 7-11 in Surprise, Arizona.
Junior Sara Lizariturry will compete in singles
and will partner with rookie Tamara Racine in dou-
bles. Racine enters the weekend 4-2 in singles.
Senior captain Anastasia Rentouli, ranked
125th nationally, will take the court with a 4-2
singles mark. She will partner with senior Janina
Braun in doubles.
Sophomore Magda Adaloglou and freshman
Emma Antonaki will round out MSU’s doubles
tandems.
Adaloglou is 4-4 in singles, while Antonaki
is 3-3.
Sophomore transfer Meredith Roberts will
round out the lineup. She is 3-3 in singles.

CANDORVILLE Horoscopes
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct.
12). Your work ethic has never
been stronger and you’ll devote
yourself to a serious effort that
also just happens to delight
you. More highlights this solar
return: a speech that persuades
people toward your wonderful
idea, the closing of a gap in your
education and an opportunity
that opens a different social
world. Sagittarius and Taurus
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 14, 5, 30, 21 and 48.
BABY BLUES ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Some keep themselves ignorant
on purpose. They don’t want to
know anything that might ne-
gate what they already believe.
This is unwise, and very differ-
ent from learning what there is
to know and then choosing to
focus elsewhere.
BEETLE BAILEY
MALLARD FILLMORE
FAMILY CIRCUS
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You’ll recover what another left
behind. They took it as far as
they were capable and wrung
out as much reward as they
were going to get from it. But
there’s still something very
valuable (and different) that was
left for you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
When appealing words fall
on ears that want them to be
true, the deal will be made. Do
note, that doesn’t mean it’s a
good deal. The pleasantness
of words has nothing to do with
their truth.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
A significant part of you exists
without words, thoughts or
mental images. That part of you
is doing something mysterious
and yet absolutely crucial to
the existence of you and yours.
Honor it. Give it space.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
may look for beauty and yet see
the flaws. So, your powers of
discernment are strong. Some
would call that “taste.” Don’t be
hard on yourself for your critical
eye. It’s part of how your mind
works to protect you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Don’t be blindsided by fearful
falsehoods, the sort that make
a person feel life is on the brink
of disaster when it fact a slightly
different perspective is all it
takes to see that this couldn’t
be further from the truth.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Intent is the single biggest
component of success today.
Set your intention, and your
priorities will fall right into place.
You’ll know what to focus on
first, second and third. Tonight
you’ll look back with satisfac-
tion.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). To help others, they must
trust you enough to follow you.
If they feel somehow trapped by
your expectation of them, they’ll
rebel. Today calls for a careful
observance of the line between
helping people and controlling
them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You want their happiness,
and you want your own. Unfor-
tunately, just seeing the other
person being happy won’t be
enough to accomplish the sec-
ond aim. But fortunately, you’ve
other means of getting happy.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19). Sometimes even
well-intentioned help can be an
imposition. Don’t accept help
you don’t need. It may seem
like a harmless enough way to
get through the moment, but it
devolves into awkwardness.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). People may feel defen-
sive, like their beliefs are being
threatened. In the matters that
don’t really matter (most of
them today) silence will be the
best opinion.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). As a water sign, you find it
easy to accept that everything
changes and, like water, you
flow with it. Today, it will be
more like floating on he water,
because the change is that
things are finally as still and
clear as a placid lake.
