Immigration raids to have long- Meridian man arrested

term effects on poultry towns for ‘peeping tom’
The Associated Press
MORTON — Effects of the larg-
est immigration raid in at least a
decade are likely to ripple for years
through six Mississippi small towns
that host poultry plants.
A store owner who caters to Lati-
no poultry plant workers fears he
will have to close. A school super-
intendent is trying to rebuild trust
with the Spanish-speaking commu-
nity. And the CEO of a local bank
says the effects are likely to touch
every business in her town.
More than 100 civil rights activ-
ists, union organizers and clergy
members in Mississippi denounced
the raid, but the state’s Republican
Gov. Phil Bryant commended fed-
eral immigration authorities for the
arrests, tweeting that anyone in the
country illegally has to “bear the
responsibility of that federal viola-
tion.”
Officials said 680 people were
initially detained during Wednes-
day’s operation. U.S. Immigrations
and Customs Enforcement sent
more than 300 of those people home
by dawn Thursday, with notices to
appear before immigration judges,
said ICE spokesman Bryan Cox.
incident in Starkville
DISPATCH STAFF REPORT
A Meridian man has been arrest-
ed in Starkville for a peeping tom
incident.
James Boyd, 36, was charged
with voyeurism on Wednesday,
according to a Starkville Police
Department press release. He is
accused of looking into dwellings at
the Russell Street Flats apartment Boyd
complex on Russell Street on July
25.

Brooks
Continued from Page 1A
vacant when Fred Jackson
resigned in July.
The commissioner’s
allegation “raises suspi-
cions” of fraudulent activ-
ity, Brooks said.
“If you had six candi-
dates all out there solic-
iting absentee ballots,
and you end up with that,
that’d be fine, but these
ballots are associated with
one person’s campaign,”
Brooks said.
Mississippi law allows
voters age 65 and older or
voters who will otherwise
be unavailable to vote on
election day, to cast absen-
tees in person — at either
a city registrar’s office
for municipal elections or
circuit clerk’s office for
all others — or through
the mail. Most absentees
must be signed and wit-
nessed by a notary public
or court clerk.
However, in cases
where voters are illiterate
or temporarily or perma-
nently disabled, anyone at
least 18 years old can pro-
vide a witness signature
on their mail-in absentee
ballots.
Brooks said it’s the
“fraudulent use of absen-
tee ballots as a means of
winning campaigns” that
needs to be investigated,
basically when repeat
witnesses, working for
candidates either for pay
or as volunteers, go door-
to-door every election,
encouraging people to
request absentee ballots
and later fill them out with
them as the witness.
Mississippi law prohib-
its “any person who pays
or compensates another
person for assisting voters
in marking their absentee
ballots to base the pay
or compensation on the
number of absentee vot-
ers assisted or the num-
ber of absentee ballots
cast by persons who have
received the assistance.”
State law also prohibits
candidates on the ballot
from being witnesses, but
it doesn’t restrict the num-
ber of times a non-candi-
date can be a witness for
a ballot.
Brooks is locked in an
election campaign of his
own, trying to defend his
supervisor’s seat against
independent challenger
Marty Turner in the Nov.
5 general election for
county offices. Turner is
a former Ward 4 council-
man.
in the “workable system”
over and over again and
approach the candidates
offering their services.
In the Ward 4 special
election, first-time candi-
date Kegdra Gibbs-Gray
said she has campaigned
door-to-door, with the
help of non-paid volun-
teers, offering assistance
only when individuals say
they need absentee bal-
lots.
“If they needed us to
come back out and help
them with
it, we would
be happy to
do that,” she
said.
She said
she doesn’t
know how
many of the Gibbs-Gray
73 ballots
are associated with her
campaign.
Gibbs-Gray, who has
worked with the Missis-
sippi Democratic Party
and served on the Lown-
des County Democratic
Executive Committee,
has also campaigned for
Brooks in the past.
“I was in his campaign,
and he did absentees,
too,” Gibbs-Gray said. “I
learned from the business
with him.”
The investigation is
a good idea, Gibbs-Gray
added, so “everybody has
a good election.”
“In November that
same attorney general
needs to come, too,” she
said.
Other candidates An-
drita Leigh-Brown, Pierre

Our View
Time to tighten down on absentee voting
Absentee voting is meant to
be a tool for voters, not a cam-
paign strategy for candidates.
In Columbus, some people
don’t seem to have gotten that
memo.
The trick is simple. A
campaign volunteer, either
paid or unpaid, canvasses
neighborhoods where elderly
or disabled citizens live and
convince them to call the city
registrar’s office for an absen-
tee ballot. Once the citizens
receive those ballots in the
mail, they call those volunteers
back over to their homes,
where they either fill out the
ballot and have the volunteer
sign as a witness or have the
volunteer fill out the ballot for
them. Then someone mails
the completed ballot back to
the registrar for counting on
election day.
You ask the candidates, and
they tell you it’s a completely
honest, forthright and objec-
tive process. There’s no push
to get these people -- again,
many of whom are elderly and
disabled -- to vote a certain
way. They’re out trying to
raise participation and make
sure these vulnerable citizens’
voices are heard.
Indeed.
The numbers tell a vastly
different story, and they point
to Columbus candidates rack-
ing up backroom votes at a rate
astoundingly disproportionate
to the rest of the state.
After the 2017 citywide
election, The Dispatch did an
in-depth look at the local use
of absentee ballots. Columbus
voters cast 1,069 absentee
ballots. The most we could
find cast in a similar-size city
were 402 in Meridian (about
50% larger than Columbus).
There were only 194 cast in
Starkville’s election.
Moreover, the impact was
pretty clear. One incumbent,
Ward 2 Councilman Joseph
Mickens, garnered almost
exactly the same number of
absentee votes as machine
votes (180 machine and 178 ab-
sentee) en route to re-election.
In Ward 4, Marty Turner lost
the election to Fred Jackson,
but beat Jackson by a 111-23
margin in absentees.
Jackson has since vacat-
ed his Ward 4 seat, and the
campaigns of six candidates
vying to replace him in an Aug.
20 special election are in full
swing.
But District 5 Lowndes
County Supervisor Leroy
Brooks — who is no stranger
to absentee ballots himself
— is calling for an Attorney
General’s office investigation
into the race, since 73 voters in
that ward have already asked
for absentee ballots.
Speaking to The Dispatch,
one candidate said she’s actual-
ly been present while absentee
voters are casting their ballots
and a campaign volunteer
provides a witness signature.
Wonder who those people
voted for?
Right now, at-home absentee
voting is perfectly legal, and if
anything improper takes place
it’s hard to prove or regulate.
So we’ll see Brooks’ call for
an investigation and raise him
one better. The Legislature
needs to change the law to
close this loophole through
which elderly and disabled
citizens are being exploited.
One way to knock it back is
implementing no-excuse early
voting. Now, you must be 65 or
older, claim you’ll be out-of-
town on election day or that
you’re disabled, and you can
vote absentee in-person or by
mail. Allowing people to vote
by machine at a centralized
location for two to three weeks
before and election would sig-
nificantly cut down on the need
for absentees, save for military
personnel deployed overseas.
Otherwise, opportunist
candidates will keep stuffing
ballot boxes with ill-gotten
gain, and the results of our city
elections will continue to be, at
best, ethically ambiguous.

Letter to the editor

Voice of the people
Fire department accreditation
After several weeks of fact-finding and in-
vestigation by several citizens on accreditation,
the facts have finally seen the light of day. The
Dispatch did a good job of making it public. Now
it is time for someone to man up and explain the
$250,000-plus that has been spent on accreditation.
Chief Andrews what say you? Mr. Box was kind
only to say you have misinformed the council.
Accreditation has nothing to do with rating. That’s
another false fact presented. Response times have
been given, and based on those in the trenches,
they don’t like the accreditation regiment. It has
been reported morale is low and turnover is high,
I don’t know the answer to that but something
is wrong. Another undocumented bit of news
concerns the fire academy graduates from the
department. Are all those in leadership position
completing the academy? What about the new SUV
that is setting in storage, that was purchased to
help with responding to 911 calls? I have heard it’s
for the lack of trained personnel to operate it? We
have an unfinished building on Airline Road that
no one knows what the cost is going to be or the
completion date. The chief, mayor and others are
on a trip to Hotlanta, that was approved under less
than truthful circumstances for the bargain of only
$7,000. Thanks for the $2,000 cut. That’s taking
care of the money the city doesn’t have. Chief
Andrews has some explaining to do at the next
council meeting, but we’ll have to wait and see. It
seems to some on the council that everything is

wonderful and great in the city and we do not have
financial problems. A letter for another time will
address the $3,000,000 being spent for LED lights.
Watch for it.

‘I’m going to win’
Old Waverly founder
George Bryan remem-
bers running into Inkster
following the first day of
the 1999 U.S. Open.
The two crossed paths
at an Alabama concert the
night after Inkster fired a
7-under, 65, in first round.
“She said, ‘I’m going
to win the tournament,’”
Bryan recalled.
“Right when I got here
I thought I was playing
well,” Inkster added. “I
felt like this was my time
to do it.”
Following an impres-
sive opening day, she
responded with a 3-under,
69, on day two a 5-under,
67, on day three to take
sole possession of the
lead heading into Sun-
day’s final round.
“If I slept a half-hour
that was probably a lot,”
Inkster said of that Satur-
day night. “I just tossed
and turned a lot.”
Stepping to the first
tee box for her final
round, Inkster’s mind
raced. Seven years prior,
she held a two-stroke lead
with two holes to play
at the U.S. Open before
falling to Patty Sheehan
in an 18-hole playoff.
That pressure weighed
heavily.
She boasted a four-
shot lead entering Sunday
at Old Waverly. It was her
tournament to lose.
Shaking off the initial
butterflies, Inkster tamed
the course’s tricky fair-
ways and wicked greens.
“It wasn’t clicking but
I felt like I wasn’t swing-
ing in a straight jacket,”
Inkster said of how she
loosened up following the
first few holes. “I was a
little more fluid and felt a
little less pressure.”
Her lead never
dropped below three
strokes as she coasted
to 1-under, 71, and took
home her fourth career
major title.
“It just took a load off
my shoulders that I final-
ly won the U.S. Open,”
Inkster said.

“I believe that right
now, in this city, God has
organized just enough
chaos so we can see
what we can do to help,”
he said. “I always say
that this is about access,
not ownership. We are
providing access to job
training, discipleship, af-
ter-school programs. We
don’t own our talents, but
we’re trying to use them
all to the best of our abil-
ity to bless our communi-
ty. And that’s where the
community comes in.”

between Andrea Lee and Alexa Pano Thursday at Old Waverly Club in West Point. In
1999, Inkster won the U.S. Women’s Open title when the tournament was housed
at Old Waverly Golf Club. Now, she’s back at the course to as a commentator for the
119th U.S. Women’s Amateur.
Packed with a gallery
roughly 10 to 15 people
deep, the nearly 40,000
fans on hand made their
way down the fairway as
Inkster began her 375-
yard stride to victory.
Included in the crowd
was Charlie Chandler.
A 20-year-old Ole Miss
sophomore at the time,
Chandler grew up on
the property. He even
recalled the days before
Old Waverly had a club-
house.
But that Sunday, Chan-
dler manned the ropes
during Inkster’s round
as an usher. Helping to
keep the wave of fans at
bay, he meandered down
the 18th hole needing to
almost push and shove
to keep the gallery in
check.
“I’m pretty sure we
were the final group that
day,” he said. “… But it
was just really neat being
a 20-year-old kid walking
around seeing all this
stuff at the course you
grew up on.”
As Chandler managed
the crowd, Inkster’s
nerves momentarily
returned. Her playing
partner, Kellie Kuehne,
sent her tee shot into the
water.
“I watched that and

events the Dream Center

be a separate space in
the building for an af-
ter-school meal program.

Inkster said.
Regaining her compo-
sure, Inkster hit a wood
off the tee toward the
bunkers in the middle of
the fairway before drop-
ping a seven iron within
12 feet of the hole.
“Once the ball landed
on the green it was like all
the pressure was off,” she
said. “I was going to enjoy
the walk — and I did.”
Striding down the fair-
way, Inkster clutched her
visor anxiously. Swinging
her arms to the rhythm of
her wistful gait she high-
fived her caddy as they
made the move toward
the green.
Looking into the cam-
era just a few feet in front
of her she exclaimed,
“I’m bringing home the
trophy.”

unclear.

Redshirt in tow, Gardner looking
to impress in fall camp
Starkville High graduate and Mississippi State football player Cam Gardner is hoping to turn heads with his performance
during fall camp.
BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com
STARKVILLE — Cameron Gard-
ner’s mind raced.
Stepping onto the field during the
2018 opener against Stephen F. Austin,
Gardner looked around the bleachers
at Davis Wade Stadium.
For the first time in his short Missis-
sippi State career, he was on the field,
in uniform, lining up for a live play. Fol-
lowing a standout career at Starkville
High School, Gardner was living his
dream.
“My head was spinning,” he said
through a grin. “But as soon as I ran
the first play I was good after that.”
Though he didn’t record a catch in
three games played against Stephen F.
Austin, Louisiana and Louisiana Tech
last year, Gardner figures to be an im-
portant depth piece in the MSU pass-
ing game in 2019.
The Mississippi State receiving
corps is decidedly unsettled at pres-
ent. Junior Osirus Mitchell and seniors
Stephen Guidry and Deddrick Thomas
are holdovers from last season’s less
than inspiring bunch. Kansas State
transfer Isaiah Zuber should bring
some fresh life to the group.
And then there’s Gardner.

The Associated Press
MIAMI — Brian Anderson’s person-
al milestone was part of the Miami Mar-
lins’ happy homecoming after a rough
road trip.
Anderson homered twice to reach 20
for the season to lead the Marlins to a
9-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves on
Thursday night.
“It’s good to see when you get those
personal accomplishments but at the
end of the day it’s nice see us playing
better ball,” Anderson said. “I’m just
trying to get better pitches to hit. I still
have a lot of room to develop.”
Elieser Hernandez pitched six shut-
out innings as the Marlins returned
from a six-game road losing streak
and beat the NL East-leading Braves at
home for the first time this season after
six previous losses. Hernandez (2-4)
allowed two hits, struck out seven and
walked two. The right-hander retired
11 consecutive batters before Ronald
Acuña’s leadoff single in the sixth.
“You don’t want what happened on
the road to continue,” Miami manager
Don Mattingly said. “Guys walked out
of here with a good feeling.”
Hernandez also got his first career
hit with a single in the fifth.
“I always have worked for that and I

“I think I’ve grown a lot since last
year,” Gardner said. “I think this time
I’m more mature. I’ve matured mental-
ly and physically and I think this camp
I’ve learned the playbook. This camp
I’m just playing faster.”

nandez said through a translator.
Starlin Castro had two hits and drove
in three runs, and Jon Berti went 3 for 5
with two RBIs for Miami.
The Marlins chased Atlanta starter
Dallas Keuchel with a five-run fourth
capped by Anderson’s second home run
for an 8-0 lead. Anderson’s drive land-
ed in the walkway above the left-center
wall for his first career multi-homer
game.
Anderson is hitting .400 with four
home runs and six RBIs in his last sev-
en games.
Miami also got run-scoring singles
from Berti and Jorge Alfaro, and Cas-
tro’s RBI double in the inning.
Keuchel (3-5) allowed eight runs
and 10 hits in 3 2/3 innings, his short-
est outing since joining the Braves on
June 10.
“Today it just seemed like they took
some advantage of some hitters’ counts
whether it was early or I was behind
with some rolling cutters,” Keuchel
said. “There wasn’t really many things
to enjoy about tonight.”
Berti’s RBI single off Atlanta reliev-
er Jeremy Walker in the fifth put Miami
ahead 9-0.

Quarterfinals
set at US
Women’s
Amateur
BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com
STARKVILLE — The U.S.
Women’s Amateur is reaching its
tipping point
The field that originally boast-
ed 156 players has been whittled
down to eight following the round
of 32 and round of 16 Thursday.
Battling a heat index that
reached over 100 degrees, An-
drea Lee fought through a 23-hole
marathon in the round of 16 to de-
feat Alexa Pano to advance. Lee, a
rising senior at Stanford the No.
2 player in the Women’s World
Amateur Golf Rankings, led just
once in the match and forced ex-
tra holes with a birdie on the 18th
hole.
She will take on 16-year-old
Lucy Li in the quarterfinals.
Li is the No. 4 ranked player
in the world and is playing her
14th USGA championship. She
reached the quarterfinals at last
year’s U.S. Women’s Amateur. Li
has yet to play an entire 18 holes
in match play.
Lee’s Stanford teammate Al-
bane Valenzuela, the No. 5 ranked
player in the world, also made the
quarterfinals Thursday. Valenzu-
ela defeated Brynn Walker 1-up in
the round of 32 before dismissing
of Megan Shofill 4-and-3 in the
round of 16.
“Just keep it one match at a
time,” she said of her strategy.
“My match this morning was real-
ly, really tight — I could have lost.
This afternoon, I had it more in
control. So, anything can happen
at any time.”
Other qualifiers include
16-year-old Caroline Canales,
15-year-old Megha Ganne and 21-
year old Kenzie Wright. Canales
(No. 2,064) Ganne, (No. 543) and
Wright (No. 445) are the three
lowest ranked players remaining.
Canales has earned a relatively
easy path to the quarterfinals —
winning each of her matches at
least 3-and-2.
“I played pretty steady off the
tee,” Canales said of her play
Thursday. “Tried to keep it in
the fairway for the most part and
didn’t really take unnecessary
risks which is kind of important in
match play.”
Wright and Ganne have had
more tedious trails to Friday.
Wright earned her quarterfinals

Major League Baseball Roundup

Urshela HRs twice, streaking

Yanks outslug Bichette, Jays
The Associated Press
TORONTO — Gio Urshela
hit two home runs for the second
straight game and the New York
Yankees outslugged rookie Bo Bi-
chette and the Toronto Blue Jays
12-6 Thursday night to extend their
winning streak to a season-best
nine games.
Playing in Toronto for the first
time, Bichette became the first
player in major league history to
double in nine consecutive games.
He also homered, giving him an un-
precedented 13 extra-base hits in
his first 11 career games. Bichette
is the first rookie to have an ex-
tra-base hit in nine straight games
since Ted Williams in 1939, accord-
ing to STATS.
The Yankees have hit a record 19
homers over their last four games,
including at least five in each win
during a three-game sweep at Bal-
timore this week. Mike Tauchman
also homered Thursday to give
New York three connections.
Domingo Germán (15-2) pitched
five innings to win his sixth consec-
utive decision for New York.
Both of Urshela’s homers came
off left-hander Thomas Pannone
(2-5), who matched a career worst
by giving up seven runs in 2 1/3 in-
nings.
Luis Cessa pitched the final
three innings for his first save.
n Red Sox 3, Angels 0: BOS-
TON — Chris Sale righted himself
and struck out 13 over eight innings
of two-hit ball, Sam Travis hit a two-
run homer and Boston beat Los An-
geles.
Sale (6-11) had allowed 14 runs
over nine innings during his pre-
vious two starts, both against the
rival New York Yankees. He carved
up the Angels in his 13th outing
with double-digit strikeouts this
season.
The Red Sox had lost nine of 10
games, not including’s Wednes-
day’s contest against the Royals
that was suspended in the 10th in-
ning with the score tied at 4. Thurs-
day’s game ran without issue and
was over in a tidy 2 hours, 16 min-
utes. Brandon Workman worked a
clean ninth with two strikeouts for
his seventh save.
Dillon Peters (2-1) gave up three
runs and five hits and struck out
eight over six innings.
n Indians 7, Twins 5: MIN-
NEAPOLIS — Jose Ramirez drove
in three runs, Mike Clevinger kept
Minnesota quiet with nine strike-
outs in seven innings, and Cleve-
land struck first in this four-game
series between the AL Central
front-runners to pull within a game
of the Twins.
Indians closer Brad Hand ended
the game by retiring Eddie Rosario
on a routine flyout with the bases
loaded, recording his 29th save in
dramatic fashion.
RBI singles in the fourth by
Luis Arraez and Marwin Gonza-
lez accounted for two of the three
hits managed by the Twins against
Clevinger (7-2), who watched four
relievers toil through a three-run
eighth inning that cut Cleveland’s
lead to 6-5.
The Twins lost leading home run
hitter Nelson Cruz to a strained left
wrist, after he swung and missed at
a pitch from Clevinger in the fourth.
Kyle Gibson (11-5) got them off to
an ominous start, giving up six runs
in less than five innings behind a
career-high six walks.
n Cubs 12, Reds 5: CINCIN-
NATI — Anthony Rizzo had a pair
of hits as part of a 30th birthday cel-
ebration, Nicholas Castellanos add-
ed to his Chicago surge with a pair
of homers and the Cubs beat Cin-
cinnati for their biggest NL Central
lead of the season.
The Cubs’ sixth win in seven
games gave them a 3½-game mar-
gin over the idle Brewers. Left-
hander Cole Hamels struggled, but
Tyler Chatwood (5-1) fanned six
in three innings as Chicago pulled
away.
Reds manager David Bell
returned from a six-game sus-
pension for going after Pirates
manager Clint Hurdle during a
benches-clearing brawl last week at
Great American Ball Park.
Castellanos had a pair of solo
homers among his three hits, the
latter breaking a 5-5 tie off Kevin
Gausman (3-8) in the fourth inning.
He’s hit safely in all eight games
since the Cubs got him from De-
troit.
Aristides Aquino hit a two-run
homer for Cincinnati measured at
118.3 mph, tying the Yankees’ Gary
Sanchez and Mets’ Pete Alonso for
the hardest-hit homers this season.
n Padres 9, Rockies 3: SAN
DIEGO — Rookie Fernando Tatis
Jr. hit his second leadoff home run
in two games — and team-record
sixth this season — and San Diego
scored five unearned runs in the
sixth inning to beat Colorado.
Tatis broke the old record of five
leadoff homers by Will Venable in
2011 when he drove a 1-0 pitch from
Jon Gray (10-8) into the home run
porch in the right field corner. It
was the 22nd of the season for Tatis,
who hit a leadoff homer in a 3-2 loss
at Seattle on Wednesday.
Manuel Margot homered in the
eighth for the Padres, his ninth.
The Padres led 3-1 after two before
the Rockies tied it on Trevor Story’s
RBI double in the third and Char-
lie Blackmon’s leadoff homer in the
fifth, his 24th.
Matt Strahm (5-8) pitched two
innings for the win.
n Giants 5, Phillies 0: SAN
FRANCISCO — Madison Bumgar-
ner carried a no-hit bid into the
sixth inning and won his fourth
straight decision, pitching San
Francisco past Philadelphia to snap
a four-game losing streak.
Pinch-hitter Cesar Hernandez
hit a sharp single up the middle
with one out in the sixth to break
it up. Before that, the only Phil-
lies baserunner came when Rhys
Hoskins drew a one-out walk in the
fourth.
Mike Yastrzemski hit a solo ho-
mer and drove in three runs to get
the offense going after San Fran-
cisco scored just four total runs the
previous three days in being swept
by the Nationals.
The Giants delivered four
straight hits against Aaron Nola
(10-3) to start the third and back
Bumgarner (7-7), capped by Yas-
trzemski’s two-run double before
he got caught in a rundown trying
to stretch it to a triple. San Fran-
cisco left the bases loaded in the
fourth.
n Tigers 10, Royals 8: DE-
TROIT — Jordy Mercer hit a walk-
off, two-run homer against Richard
Lovelady (0-2) in the ninth inning
to lift Detroit over Kansas City.
Travis Demeritte led off the
ninth with his third walk of the
game and moved to second on a sac-
rifice bunt by Jake Rogers. Mercer
then hit a 2-1 fastball into the right
field stands.
Joe Jimenez (3-6) got the win
with a scoreless ninth inning.

Howard had 23 points, 11 rebounds
and six steals, Jordin Canada add-
ed a career-high 18 points and six

the Dallas Wings 69-57 on Thurs-
day night.
Howard scored 13 of Seattle

half with 15 as the Storm trailed
38-37. Seattle was just 2 of 10 from
3-point range before halftime and
ended the game 3 for 19.
Alysha Clark added 12 points
and eight rebounds to help Seattle

Kayla Thornton led Dallas (6-17)
with 14 points. Arike Ogunbowale
added 13, Isabelle Harrison 12 and
Allisha Gray 11. Glory Johnson, the
fifth starter, was just 1 of 10 from

downs during his final year at
Starkville — leaving Jones wishing
he’d arrived earlier.
“If we would have had him last
year or this year I think he’d be a
kid that could catch 60-70 balls and
be one of the best receivers in the
nation,” he said. “It didn’t work out
that way but I was fortunate enough
to coach him for one year and hon-
estly it was a blessing.”
With Gardner now playing his
collegiate football just a few miles
away, Jones keeps tabs on his for-
mer receiver through MSU receiv-
ers coach Marcus Johnson.
“I think he’s doing some good
coaching right now and it’s only a
matter of time till (Gardner) will
blow up and have a good year,” he
said.
As it stands, Gardner looked to
be in the driver’s seat for a rotational
spot — spending most of the spring
running with the No. 2 offense. But
in the limited action open to the me-
dia, he looked to be working with
the No. 3 offense during team work
last week.
That said, with another year in
Moorhead’s system and the allure
of the SEC’s bright lights no longer
a mesmerizer, Gardner is prepared
to make the most of any opportuni-
ty he is afforded this season or next
in his own backyard.
“It’s real cool,” he said of being
able to play in his hometown. “I’m
at home. I’m surrounded by friends
and family who want to see me and
support me so I’m just basically try-
ing to put on for Starkville.”

Alfaro kept the Braves from an early

got past Alfaro and bounced off the back-
stop. Alfaro retrieved the ball, ran toward
the plate and beat Albies, who tried to
score from third after his one-out triple.
“He flipped the game right there, in-
stead of us getting behind quick and
didn’t have to battle back,” Mattingly
said.

McLaren to return to full-time IndyCar racing in 2020

By JENNA FRYER
The Associated Press
McLaren will return to full-
time IndyCar competition next
season for the first time since
1979 in a partnership with ex-
isting team Arrow Schmidt Pe-
terson Motorsports.
The new venture will be re-
named Arrow McLaren Racing
SP and rely on Arrow SPM’s
current infrastructure. McLar-
en will be responsible for tech-
nical expertise, commercial ex-
perience and marketing. It will
be a two-car team but switch
next season to Chevrolet.
“IndyCar has been part of
McLaren since our early years
of racing, and the series today
provides not only a commercial
platform to continue to grow
our brand in North America,
but competition with some of
the best teams in international
motorsport,” said Zak Brown,
CEO of McLaren Racing. “We
come to IndyCar in full respect
of the sport, our competitors,
the fans and the task ahead.
“At our core, we at McLaren
are racers and where there’s
competition that puts us to the
test, we will race.”
The team currently fields
cars for James Hinchcliffe and
Marcus Ericsson, but Hinch-
cliffe is a longtime Honda am-
bassador and star of ads for the
automaker in North America.
All seven of Schmidt’s IndyCar
victories were powered by Hon-
da, which also helped the team
win two Indianapolis 500 poles.
Honda Performance Devel-
opment said in a statement Fri-
day “although we regret that
this partnership will be coming
to an end ... HPD has the utmost
confidence in the strength and
commitment of its remaining
partner teams.”
Arrow Electronics will re-
main the team’s title partner
and team co-founders Sam
Schmidt and Ric Peterson will
continue in their current lead-
ership roles.
“I’m extremely proud of the
team that Ric and I have built
and that a legendary brand like
McLaren Racing has decided
to partner with us,” Schmidt
said. “Arrow is a tremendous
partner which has been inte-
gral to our growth as a team
since 2015 and to the creation
of this new partnership. The
combined technical resources
and commercial opportunities
both McLaren and Arrow bring
to the table provide a winning
combination.”
Gil de Ferran, the sporting
director for McLaren Racing,
will lead the IndyCar effort for
McLaren independently from
the Formula One effort.
“IndyCar is a natural fit for
McLaren, given our legacy and
determination to succeed at
the top levels of international
motorsport,” said de Ferran, a
former Indy 500 winner. “Our
ambition, over time, is to con-
sistently compete for wins and
championships.
“We acknowledge the chal-
lenge ahead of us but McLaren
is committed to this partner-
ship and to supporting the team
as a whole.”
McLaren is coming off a
spectacular embarrassment in
which it failed to qualify for the
Indianapolis 500 in May with
celebrated two-time Formula
One champion Fernando Alon-
so.
Alonso does not appear to be
interested in a full-time IndyCar
ride in 2020, but Brown has in-
dicated the new team will field
a third car for the Indianapolis
500. Alonso would likely have
an option to drive that entry.

This is the first

Most of the time, I enjoy it uals encounter on the way to

I have friends and family,

BUT NOT LONELY
IN LOUISIANA
DEAR ALONE:
Here’s how.
Smile and thank
these kind
people for their
thoughtfulness.
Say that at this
point in your life
you are enjoying
freedom and
comfortable
solitude. And the
next time you
enter a restau-
rant, ask the host to seat you
farther back, so you are not
the first person these individ-

As to the sweet lady who
tried to fix you up with her
brother, I hope in the future
you might be open to whatever
possibilities come your way.
DEAR ABBY: I just started
seasonal housecleaning, and
I’m realizing my house is filled
with useless knickknacks.
When I get rid of an unneeded
item, I remember who gave it
to me and the special occa-
sion associated with the gift.
Then I start feeling guilty and
wonder if I will later regret my
decision to discard it.
My other issue is, I live in
a small town. I’m afraid if I do-
nate something to a local char-
ity, friends or neighbors may
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You’ll nurture a strong connec-
tion by simply showing up to the
events that mean something
to your loved ones. They will be
buoyed and encouraged by your
presence.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You are kind to people you don’t
know, which is in keeping with
your character. You’re even
kinder to people you know but
don’t like, which is your charac-
ter’s strengthening and toning
exercise.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
In the lessons of life, people
may skip around learning differ-
ent things at different stages,
but there really is no skipping
ahead. So don’t be jealous

I’ll seem ungrateful for their
thoughtfulness. How can I get

DEAR CRAMPED: Once a
gift (or tchotchke) is given, it
is the recipient’s to do with as

an item, do not become defen-

are downsizing and decided to
“share the pleasure” the item
brought you with someone
else.
DEAR ABBY: I was invited
to a professional ballgame by
my landlord, who has season
tickets. He asked that I remind
him to give me the ticket
because he sells the ones he
doesn’t use. I have “reminded”
him three times now, but I still
haven’t made it to a game.
When you invite someone
somewhere, is it polite to

brought it up to me; I didn’t

DEAR ANNOYED: Asking
someone to remind you of
something makes sense if the
person is more organized than
you are. However, it is incon-
siderate to extend an invitation
and not follow through. I don’t
blame you for feeling annoyed
because, after three remind-
ers and no follow-through, it
appears your landlord may not
have been sincere in inviting
you, or has sold the tickets to
someone else.
when you notice someone is at
a stage that’s foreign to you. All
in good time.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
You know exactly who your role
model is. This certain someone
would be flattered by your admi-
ration, though you don’t need
to actually have an interaction
to reap the benefits of this
dynamic.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
While it’s sometimes better to
decide how you’d like to feel and
then cultivate that feeling, today
it’s better to keep it simple with
a few tangible and measureable
goals.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
You learn from every interac-
tion. Some lessons improve
your mood, and others dampen
it. The change in feeling you
experience is just proof that the
lesson took hold.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Take on the job that no one
wants to do. You’ll make a mis-
take, and it will be inconvenient
and uncomfortable, but there
will be no regret, because the
experience is invaluable.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’ll think deeply into
matters, and this will stretch
over the course of many days.
You assume that everyone is
like you, but it’s not true. Many
aren’t paying such close atten-
tion. All the more reason why
you should.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). New people are interested
in you. Don’t let them get con-
fused by too much information.
Share your story thoughtfully
with one continuous narrative
that fits the past into the
present.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Why do you idolize a cer-
tain someone? Often the role
models we choose aren’t really
the actual person but what the
person represents. Through
curiosity about these ideas and
ideals, you’ll learn something
about yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Not celebrating your
success would be a mistake.
The small wins especially need
acknowledgment. These daily
tasks are the lifeblood of your
hopes and dreams. They count,
and they need to be treated
that way.

El Nino fades so forecasters

expect busier hurricane season
By SETH BORENSTEIN
AP Science Writer
WASHINGTON — The Associated Press
Government meteorol-
ogists say this year’s
hurricane season may
be busier than initially
expected now that sum-

faded away.
The National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Admin-

the Atlantic season looks
more active than normal
as peak hurricane season
begins. Forecasters now
expect 10 to 17 named
storms, with five to nine
hurricanes and two to
four major ones.
Camille Memorial getting face lift for 50th anniversary
BILOXI — Hurricane Katrina left lasting scars on the Hurricane Camille Me-
morial in Biloxi located at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer.
The church reached out to the Biloxi Fire Department which, in turn, reached
out to Lodging and Leisure Investments for help in returning the memorial to its
best condition in light of the storm’s upcoming 50th anniversary.
Officials tell WLOX-TV restoring the tile mosaic is the greatest challenge in
the project. Other work includes power washing and cleaning each name on the
memorial’s walls.
Camille’s 50th anniversary will include a memorial service at the memorial
site at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 17. Afterward, a program will be held at the Sea-
food & Maritime Industry Museum at 6 p.m.
