‘A better deal’
Plea agreements incentivize defendants to admit
to crimes, keep the justice system moving

S
tarkville resident James Bardwell had a choice.
He could go to trial for sexual battery and two counts of being a convicted
felon in possession of a weapon. Or, he could accept a plea agreement from the
state to confess to the weapons charges, spend the next 18 years in the Mississippi
Department of Corrections and not have to register as a sex offender when released.
Bardwell took the plea deal earlier this month during the most recent term of
Oktibbeha County Circuit Court. As a habitual offender, he isn’t eligible for parole,
meaning he will spend every day of his sentence in prison.
It’s a high prison sentence for weapons charges, said District Attorney Scott
Colom. But from the prosecutors’ standpoint, it made sense. There was plenty of
evidence supporting the weapons charges and less supporting the sexual battery
charge, which prosecutors felt deserved a significant sentence.
Bardwell, 35, was accused of having sex with a victim younger than 14. However,

Murder suspect in Mississippi trooper shooting released

The Associated Press
CORINTH — The suspect
charged with capital murder in
the shooting of an off-duty Mis-
sissippi Highway Patrol trooper
has been released from jail.
Attorneys for Troy Antho-
ny Eaton, 43, of Rienzi, said
their client was released Friday
shortly after Tippah County
Circuit Court Judge Andrew
Howorth set bond at $200,000
on the capital murder charge
and $100,000 on an attempted
murder charge.
The Northeast Mississippi
Daily Journal reports Eaton
faces charges in the death of
32-year-old Trooper Josh Smith.
The incident happened near the
Hatchie River south of Walnut
on Sept. 30 in a rural, isolated
area near the Alcorn/Tippah
County line.
Attorney Jamie Franks has
said Eaton was defending him-
self and others.
The judge also granted a mo-
tion by the state to postpone a
preliminary hearing that was
set for next week. Holding a
preliminary hearing would be
“premature and could be det-
rimental to the integrity of the
investigation,” the motion re-
questing the continuance stat-
ed.
“At this point, the investiga-
tion is still fluid and ongoing by
the Mississippi Bureau of Inves-
tigation,” the motion states.
The motion also noted that
Eaton’s attorneys want subpoe-
nas issued to several officials
and agencies. The defense
attorneys are seeking infor-
mation on Smith, such as tox-
icology reports, employment
records, 911 calls and other
documents.
Prior to his release Friday,
Eaton had been held in jail with-
out bond for about 40 days. He
turned himself in on Sept. 30,
hours after the shooting.
The bond includes condi-
tions that Eaton not have any
contact with Smith’s family,
Tippah County District Attor-
ney Ben Creekmore said.
The charging affidavit
against Eaton alleges that he
killed Smith knowing that
Smith was acting in an official
capacity as a law enforcement
officer. But the defense at-
torneys have said there are a
“multitude of witnesses” who
support the claim that Eaton
was exercising his legal right to
self-defense when Smith, who
was off-duty, was fatally shot.
Creekmore said he is not
aware of anything that would
indicate that Eaton is not prop-
erly charged.
Eaton is also charged with
the attempted murder of Rickie
Dale Vick, 38, of Michigan City.
Tippah County Coroner
Chris McCallister has said it
appears that Eaton was sitting
inside a vehicle on the passen-
ger side when he allegedly shot
and killed Smith. It appears
Smith was standing outside the
vehicle when he was shot once
in the head/face area, McCal-
lister has said.
Witnesses said Smith was
armed with a firearm when he
was fatally shot, Davis said.
It is unclear when the case
may be presented to a grand
jury, said Creekmore, adding
that it depends on how long it
takes MBI to complete its in-
vestigation. The next regular
grand jury will be in April.
Eaton was allegedly beat up
inside the Tippah County Jail a
few days after his arrest and was
relocated to Marshall County to
ensure his safety, Franks said.
The FBI said it was looking into
the jail-beating allegation to see
if there were any civil rights vi-
olations.

Recovery House
Continued from Page 1A
on track.
But after more than 30
years at Recovery House,
Johnson has resigned as
executive director, effec-
tive Dec. 31, to take the
same position at S.A.F.E.
Inc. in Tupelo.
While it was a hard de-
cision, Johnson said she’s
excited to continue her
work building women’s
self-esteem and self-con-
fidence in a new place.
“I just have so much
passion for helping wom-
en to succeed,” she said.
From the helped to the
helper
Johnson began volun-
teering at the center in
1988 under then-director
Josie Fannon, who John-
son said was her mentor.
It was the year after
Johnson went through
the program herself.
Johnson didn’t talk
much about her own
struggles with addiction,
but said Fannon and
others at Recovery House
helped her through it,
inspiring her to find ways
to help other women.
“That’s where my pas-
sion came from,” Johnson
said. “What was given to
me, I wanted to be able
to give to someone else.
… I feel like it came from
someone reaching out
and helping me and my
life changing so much.”
Fannon applied for
a grant creating the
position of administrative
assistant, giving Johnson
a full-time job. At that
time, funding was low
and everyone pitched
in to “get this program
going,” Johnson said.
“I tilled the front yard
in order for them to put
down grass seed,” she
remembered. “We all did
things like that. We just
worked and did what we
had to do.”
When Fannon left in
2001, Johnson took over
her position.
“Stephanie has meant
so much to Recovery
House,” Bateman said.
“She came through the
program, she has worked
there, she has been the
leader there for so many
years now. It has evolved
through the years with
the same goals in mind
and the same heart for
what they’re doing. …
I just can’t say enough
about how much we all
appreciate her, and I
speak for the board and
those people who work
there, those women
who’ve gone through
the program. It’s made
a difference in so many
lives.”
The program
Women at Recovery
House undergo a 90-day
residential program of
addiction treatment, after
which they may stay in

several months while

In Washington

Future seems uncertain for

Trump’s acting attorney general
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Mat-
thew Whitaker’s future at
the helm of the Justice De-
partment appears uncertain
as President Donald Trump
denies even knowing the
man he’s just named acting
attorney general.
The Senate’s top Repub- Trump
lican is predicting a perma-
nent replacement could be named soon for
Whitaker, who’s now overseeing special
counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into
possible ties between Russia and Trump’s
2016 presidential campaign.
The comments Friday from Trump and
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell,
R-Ky.,
came as Whitaker’s past business ties
and remarks on Mueller’s probe and other
topics drew scrutiny from Democrats and
ethics groups.
“I don’t know Matt Whitaker,” Trump
told reporters at the White House before
leaving on a trip to France. That contra-
dicted Trump’s remarks on Fox News last
month, when he called Whitaker “a great
guy” and said, “I mean, I know Matt Whita-
ker.”
McConnell, separately, said, “I think
this will be a very interim AG.” And Sen.
Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she was con-
cerned by some of Whitaker’s past com-
ments and called for legislation that would
place limits on his ability to fire Mueller.
That would include specifying that only a
Senate-confirmed Justice Department offi-
cial, which Whitaker is not, could dismiss
the special counsel.
Whitaker, a Republican Party loyal-
ist and chief of staff to just-ousted Attor-
ney General Jeff Sessions, was elevated
Wednesday after Sessions was forced from
his job by Trump.
Since Wednesday, Whitaker has faced
pressure from Democrats to step aside
from overseeing Mueller, based on critical
comments Whitaker made about the inves-
tigation before joining the Justice Depart-
ment last year.
Whitaker wrote an op-ed article say-
ing Mueller would be straying outside his
mandate if he investigated Trump family
finances. Whitaker also gave a talk radio
interview in which he maintained there
was no evidence of collusion between the
Kremlin and the Trump campaign. He also
tweeted an ex-prosecutor’s opinion piece
that described a “Mueller lynch mob” and
said it was “worth a read.”
There have been reports about Whitak-
er’s past comments questioning the power
and reach of the federal judiciary, and about
his ties to an invention-promotion company
that was accused of misleading consumers.
The Wall Street Journal on Friday pub-
lished an email revealing an FBI inves-
tigation into the company, World Patent
Marketing Inc. The July 10, 2017, email was
from an FBI victims’ specialist to someone
who, the newspaper said, was an alleged
victim of the company. A Justice Depart-
ment spokeswoman told the Journal that
Whitaker was “not aware of any fraudulent
activity.”
Also Friday, The Associated Press re-
ported that Whitaker repeatedly chided
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary
Clinton in public statements during 2016
while he was speaking for a group that is
barred by its tax-exempt status from sup-
porting or opposing political candidates
during a campaign.

Roses and thorns
A rose to all our veterans on
this special Veterans Day. Al-
though most observances of the
day will take place on Monday,
today is the actual holiday —
which traces its roots to the end
of World War I, when the armistice that ended
the war was signed on the 11th hour of the 11th
day of the 11th month in 1918. For the past 100
years now, we have chosen this day as a mo-
ment to reflect on what our military has sacri-
ficed and continues to sacrifice in the interest
of not only our freedoms, but the freedoms of
people throughout the world. If you know a
veteran — and who doesn’t — be sure to reach
out to them to thank them for all they do on our
behalf. Happy Veterans Day to you all!
A rose to the East Mississip-
pi Community College football
team, which defeated Jones
Community College, 19-14,
Saturday in Ellisville for its
second straight state champion-
ship and seventh in the past 11 years. The Lions
don’t stop there: Undefeated EMCC has bigger
goals in mind, namely another national champi-
onship. After beating Jones, ranked No. 4 in the
nation, on its own turf, EMCC — the nation’s
top-ranked team — will play for the title against
a yet-to-be-determined opponent. We like their
chances in that one too, but for now we salute
the Lions for their state title. Winning state
titles never gets boring — and it’s never as easy
as it might appear.
A rose to Mississippi Uni-
versity for Women, which has
adapted to the present realities
without sacrificing its original
mission. Today, The W is a
co-educational institution and
reflects the demographics of its community. But
in efforts to achieve that balance, the university
remains a source where young women can see
among and around them examples of successful
women. We were reminded of that after listen-
ing to Allison (Davis) Russo. Russo was elected
to the Ohio State legislature Tuesday and spoke
in glowing terms of how her studies at The W
prepared her for public service. Russo (Class of
1998) said the presence of strong women — in
the administration, faculty and student body
— helped empower her and find her voice as a
young woman.
A rose to the student staff
of Mississippi School for Math
and Science’s literary magazine,
“Southern Voices.” Current
MSMS students Victoria Gong,
Lilian Li, Michelle Luo and
Helen Peng, along with 2018 graduates Kamal
Bhalla, Aidan Dunkelburg and Barrie Wright,
were recently honored for their work at the
Mississippi Scholastic Press Association’s
statewide high school journalism convention in
Hattiesburg with Best of Mississippi Scholastic
Journalism Awards. With so much attention de-
voted to STEM studies — and given it’s name,
MSMS is committed to that — it’s good to
know that the language arts are not neglected.
No matter what the future holds for our young
people, the ability to clearly and effectively
communicate through the written word is of
great importance. We congratulate the students
and MSMS for recognizing that. Write on!

I looked up to see the roof was gone.
All was quiet while a gentle rain fell on
my face.
In one instant everything was
changed, walls had buckled and
insulation was hanging out. I turned
toward the bedroom for clothes. There
was nothing there except the mat-
tress. Back in the hall I headed for the
front door, then I smelled propane gas.
Electric lines were dangling. At the
door, steps were gone. I climbed out.
There was my car. Miraculously, the

not knowing what I would find. They
were sleeping undisturbed; we called

Firemen came, and neighbors —

began bagging things, taking them to

washed and restored.

outlets such as CNN and reporters
such as Acosta, who see followings

There’s a mirror to this percep-

as some sort of cohesive whole that
can stand up to the president — as
opposed to a chaotic mass of indi-
viduals and outlets, each vying for a
small slice of the story.

The woman left and re-

after a grand jury indicted (formally
charged) him, the victim became
reluctant to testify — something Colom
stressed is extremely common with
victims in sex crimes cases.
“We looked at it and said, ‘OK, we
can get a significant sentence, 18 years,
day for day,’” he said. “That type of rea-
soning is typically what goes into plea
agreements.”
Plea agreements occur when a pros-
ecutor makes a defendant a particular
offer to incentivize a guilty plea. The
state will retire certain charges if the
defendant agrees to plead guilty to
others, or it may recommend lighter
sentences. Often with non-violent
cases, defendants may not have to serve
prison time at all if they agree to some
kind of rehabilitation program.
The deal is always “a better deal than
they would get if they proceeded to tri-
al,” said Donna Smith, a public defender
in Lowndes County.
Avoiding trial
Plea agreements are an essential
part of the criminal justice system,
both Colom and Smith said, saving the
courts the cost and necessity of a trial
in a system that is increasingly bogged
down with pending cases.
“There’s no way the state could try
every case on the docket,” Smith said.
Each judge has 20 to 40 cases per
day scheduled during a court term,
she said. Court terms can be slated for
two to three weeks. Each of the four
counties in the circuit court district —

ibu, but Los Angeles County sheriff’s
Chief John Benedict offered no further
details. They were discovered in the
area of a winding stretch of Mulholland
Highway with steep panoramic views,
where on Saturday the roadway was lit-
tered with rocks, a few large boulders
and fallen power lines, some of them
still on fire. Most of the surrounding
structures were leveled.
The deaths brings to 11 the number
of people killed in the state’s wildfires
Lowndes, Oktibbeha, Clay and Noxu-
bee — host up to four court terms per
year.
“If every one of them wants a trial,
we’re going to be trying cases for de-
cades,” Smith said.
Beyond that, Colom believes it’s
moral and ethical to offer defendants
the chance to confess to their crimes.
However, they’re not going to do that if
they have no incentive.
For example, he said, he has pros-
ecuted and knows of murder cases
where the defendant legally deserved
the death penalty and instead got life
in prison without parole after entering
a plea. They would not have done that
if they knew they would die anyway,
he said — they’d have “rolled the dice”
and gone to trial, where the jury may
find them not guilty.
“Going to trial is always a risk, no
matter how strong the evidence is,”
Colom said.
That risk is something Smith said
she has in mind when advising clients.
She’s obligated to take each plea deal
to clients, and how she feels about the
plea and the state’s case will determine
whether she proposes they take the
offer or go to trial. There have been
times, she said, where she suggested
they chance a trial.
Other times, she said, the state
offers what she calls a “sweetheart of
a deal.” An example of one such case
is when the prosecutors had one of her
clients on video with multiple drugs.
The client had been charged with three
in the past few days, with nine found
dead in a Northern California wildfire.
Firefighters have saved thousands
of homes despite working in “extreme,
tough fire conditions that they said
they have never seen in their life,” Los
Angeles County Fire Chief Daryl Osby
said.
Those vicious conditions on Friday
night gave way to calm Saturday, with
winds reduced to breezes.
Firefighters used the lull to try to
counts of possession of a controlled
substance. The state offered to retire
two of them, with a sentence of house
arrest.
However, Smith stressed, it’s always
up to the client.
“They tell us what they want to do,
not vice-versa,” she said.
Working out a deal
A common misconception Smith’s
clients often have is that they are en-
titled to three continuances and three
plea bargains, and that those bargains
become better for the defendant every
time a new one is offered.
“I have no idea how that thought
came into being,” Smith said.
There’s no law that says prosecutors
have to offer an agreement at all, much
less a particular number. When the
state does offer multiple plea bargains,
they’re likely to be harsher for clients
the second or third time around, not
better.
Plea deals also aren’t something de-
fense attorneys come up with, she said.
The prosecutors always make the offer.
Colom added there are even unique
circumstances where prosecutors don’t
offer deals at all. His office prosecuted
a violent rape case in Starkville about a
year ago where they specifically want-
ed the defendant to stand trial. Still, he
said, that’s unusual.
A defendant also has the chance
to skip the prosecutors and enter an
open plea directly to the judge in the
hopes the judge will give them a lighter
rein in the powerful blaze that had
grown to 109 square miles (282 square
kilometers) and get a grasp of how
much damage it did in its first two
days.
Osby said losses to homes were
significant but did not say how many
had burned. Officials said earlier that
150 houses had been destroyed and
the number would rise. About 250,000
homes are under evacuation orders
across the region.
sentence than what was in the prosecu-
tion’s deal.
“At that point, all we can do … if the
judge wants to hear our perspective,
we can tell the judge what we (believe
the punishment should be),” Colom
said.
Trials likely in violent crimes
In Smith’s experience, defendants
whose plea agreements include sentenc-
es as habitual offenders are less likely
to take their deals.
“Nobody wants to spend every day of
whatever the maximum sentence is in
prison without the possibility of parole,”
she said. “These are the hardest cases,
the habitual offender cases.”
Both Colom and Smith said non-vi-
olent felonies with shorter sentence
times are usually the cases where
defendants will accept plea agreements.
Violent crimes come with steeper
penalties. For those defendants, even
when not sentenced as habitual offend-
ers, they must spend at least half their
sentence behind bars before parole
is an option. Those convicted of sex
crimes, Smith said, aren’t eligible for
parole at all.
“These types of sentences are not
ones people easily accept,” Colom said.
Smith agreed.
“You will see some people pleading
on violent crimes only after they see the
jury in the box,” she said. “… I think
they look up and realize, ‘There are
12 people that are going to decide my
fate.’”

The Alabama defense slams Mississippi State receiver Osirus Mitchell to the ground in the fourth quarter Saturday in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

BULLDOGS FAR FROM PERFECT IN LOSS TO TIDE

By Brett Hudson
bhudson@cdispatch.com
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The
No. 1 Alabama football team has
earned the mystique it puts on op-
ponents.
When Alabama blitzes teams
with quick scores to start a game,
most opponents falter. Louisville
folded in a 37-point loss. Ole Miss
and Arkansas did the same in 55-
and 34-point losses.
No. 18 Mississippi State didn’t
wilt in the same situation and in a
hostile environment,
Alabama did what it almost al-
ways does, moving 156 yards in 22
plays and scoring two touchdowns
in the first quarter. The Bulldogs
then played nearly even with the
Crimson Tide for the second half
and won the turnover battle.
The second half showed MSU
can go step for step with Alabama.
Unfortunately, the first half of the
24-0 loss Saturday showed MSU
must be nearly perfect to pull off
the win.
“From a program standpoint,
that’s what should motivate us
every day,” MSU coach Joe Moor-
head said. “If you want to see the
best team in the SEC and a team
that can compete for the national
championship, that’s it. They’re the
type of team we want to become.”
MSU’s defense didn’t wait until
halftime to make that point. The
opening drives were a shock to the
system, but there was no overhaul.
Defensive end Gerri Green said it
was as simple as cleaning up run
fits. Linebacker Willie Gay remem-
bered outside runs that needed ad-
dressing.
“We changed the game plan up
a little bit, but the main thing was
they were executing on the stretch
run and we had to clean that up,”
Gay said. “When you’re running
the ball and picking up four or five
a pop, you have to adjust to that.”
The adjustment limited Ala-
bama (10-0, 7-0 Southeastern Con-
ference) to 149 yards in its final 11
possessions (2.98 yards per play).
“We just buckled down and
started playing our game,” Green
said. “We knew we still had a lot
of ball left, so we had to keep fight-
ing.”
The defense fought to give its
offense a chance to fulfill the other
half of the requirements for beat-
ing Alabama. On this night, MSU
wasn’t perfect for myriad reasons.
The first sign was the flea-flick-
er. Moorhead values the explosive
play over all else, and the midway
point of the second quarter was the
perfect opportunity. An Alabama
fumble gave MSU its best field
position, and Moorhead picked his
spot well. Deddrick Thomas was
open — “He was wide open. He
was 10 yards behind him,” Moor-
head said. — but Fitzgerald was
sacked.
“Didn’t see him. I didn’t see
Deddrick at all,” Fitzgerald said.
“That’s on me. I don’t know how
to fix that. Look harder, I guess. I
don’t know.”
Said Moorhead, “That was one
right there you wish he could’ve
seen. He was screaming open.”
Misfortune struck later in the
quarter. MSU’s biggest play of the
game — Kylin Hill’s 38-yard run
— helped it get into the end zone.
But Hill’s acrobatic dive went for
naught thanks to a controversial
block in the back call.
“I’ll look at it on film, but I’m
not going to talk about that,” Moor-
head said. “There was an expla-
nation, but I’m not going to delve
deeper into that.”
The next play continued
through a delay of game call long
enough for Fitzgerald to throw to
Justin Johnson in the end zone be-
fore the officials called IT dead.
Two plays later, MSU missed a
field goal.
MSU (6-4, 2-4) didn’t help itself
on third down. It had 9 or more
yards to gain on five of its seven
first-half third downs.
Defensive tackle Jeffery Sim-
mons said coaches repeated
throughout the week “we’re not
competing against Alabama, we’re
competing against our standard.”
Against Alabama, the standard
is perfection.

EUGENE, Ore. — Trailing by
six points with two minutes to play,
Oregon women’s basketball coach
Kelly Graves chose “to let the flow
go” rather than call a timeout.
It worked.
Sabrina Ionescu had 26 points
and 10 rebounds, and Erin Boley
made a go-ahead 3-pointer with
51 seconds left to help No. 3 Or-
egon top No. 18 Syracuse 75-73
on Saturday.
“That’s why Sabrina is Sabri-
na,” Graves said. “I told her, ‘You
played like an All-American to-
night,’ and that’s what she’s sup-
posed to do.”
Ionescu, a preseason All-Amer-
ica guard coming off her 11th ca-
reer triple-double, hit back-to-back
3-pointers to spark an 11-0 run after
the Orange had scored 10-straight
points to take a 67-61 lead.

Men’s basketball team will face Appalachian State
on Sunday night
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The Alabama men’s basketball team will
close out its two-game homestand to open the 2018-19 campaign
when it plays host to Appalachian State at 6 p.m. Sunday (SEC
Network) at Coleman Coliseum.
Fans will be able to get free limited-edition Alabama hats while
supplies last.
Alabama (1-0) opened the season Tuesday with an 82-62
victory against Southern. Senior forward Donta Hall led the Crimson
Tide with a career high-tying 20 points. He was one of four players to
finish in double-digit scoring.
n Volleyball coach Allen steps down: At Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, Volleyball coach Ed Allen resigned from his head coaching
position Friday effective immediately.
Assistant coach Ryan Freeburg will serve as the interim head
coach for the duration of the season.
“I have decided that it is in the best interest of Alabama volley-
ball for me to step down as head coach,” Allen said. “Coaching is
something that I remain passionate about, however I do feel that this
is the correct decision to make at this time. I am certainly proud of
the things we were able to accomplish over the years, and I wish the
program the best in the future.”
Allen, who coached the Crimson Tide for eight seasons,
compiled a record of 152-101 and guided Alabama to back-to-back
NCAA tournament appearances in 2013 and 2014. Overall, he owns
a career record of 646-284 in 27 seasons.
“We accepted coach Allen’s letter of resignation this morning,
and we thank him for his service to The University of Alabama,”
Alabama Director of Athletics Greg Byrne said. “We wish him well in
his future endeavors.”
Under Allen’s direction, the Tide posted three 20-win seasons
and captured its first NCAA tournament victory in 2014. That year,
Alabama also set the school record for wins in a season with 26.
A national search will begin immediately for the next head
coach.

Abdul Ado added 11 points, four re-
bounds, and three blocked shots, while
Lamar Peters had six points and seven
assists (one turnover).
Former Columbus High School stand-
out Robert Woodard II had eight points
and five rebounds. Freshman Reggie
Perry had five points in his debut.
“Aric (Holman) did a good job on the
glass,” Howland said. “I thought our
guard play was very good. I thought
Lamar was really good handling that
pressure. Quinndary Weatherspoon and
Nick Weatherspoon played very well,
and Tyson (Carter) gave us great min-
utes off the bench, so we had very good
guard play. I thought Robert Woodard
(II) gave us a very good performance
playing both the three and a four. It’s a
good first win against a tough team.”
Leading 17-13, MSU used a 9-2 run for
a 26-15 lead. A 3-pointer by Nick Weath-
erspoon and follow-up dunk by Woodard
II were the big blows. A layup by Carter
capped the run.
Austin Peay (1-1) closed within 27-
23 before MSU reeled off a 17-7 spurt.
Peters had two assists, a 3-pointer, and
an old-fashioned 3-point play in the run.
Woodard II also made a 3-pointer.
The Bulldogs shot 55.9 percent from
the field in the first half and led 50-34 at
halftime.
The Bulldogs finished with 28 points
off the bench. They blew the game open
with a 13-3 lead midway through the sec-
ond half. A layup by Quinndary Weath-
erspoon capped the run and gave the
Bulldogs a 71-51 lead.
MSU was 37-for-64 from the field
(57.8 percent), 7-for-25 from 3-point
range (28), and 14-for-18 shots from the
free-throw line (77.8). Austin Peay was
23-for-59 from the field (39), 3-for-14
from 3-point range (21.4), and 18-for-26
from the foul line (69.2).
MSU held a 35-34 rebounding advan-
tage. The Bulldogs had 16 assists and 12
turnovers, while the Governors had five
assists and 18 turnovers.
Steve Harris led Austin Peay with 17
points, Terry Taylor had 15 points and
10 rebounds, Dayton Gumm had 14, and

blocked three shots and
had 11 steals in the first
half. In all, the Rebels
scored 39 points off the
turnovers.
Ole Miss’ 15 steals
were the team’s most
in six seasons. Western
Michigan turned the ball
over on eight of its first
nine possessions, and the
Rebels took advantage to
jump out to a 20-4 lead
that they would never sur-
render.
Ole Miss will travel to
Indianapolis, Indiana, to
battle Butler at 7 p.m. Fri-
day (FS2).

Before the non-conference slate
ends, MSU will play at least four games
against teams in KenPom’s top 50 — Ar-
izona State, Clemson, Cincinnati, and
BYU. Two of them will be on neutral
courts. Howland joked it was “stupid of
him” to play Dayton, which was picked
sixth in the Atlantic 10 Conference pre-
season poll, on the road this year. MSU
also will play host to Wofford on Dec. 19
at Humphrey Coliseum. Wofford beat
North Carolina on the road last year.
The Terriers, who lost to the Tar Heels
in their season opener, were picked sec-
ond in the preseason Southern Confer-
ence poll.
Paired with another brutal SEC
schedule, Howland believes the best ros-
ter he has had at MSU will get plenty of
opportunities to prove itself.
“You look at our league schedule,
they really loaded us up with the two
crossover games are Auburn and Ken-
tucky, playing each of them twice be-
cause there’s the expectation that we’re
going to be a good team by the confer-
ence,” Howland said. “Our league is
such a monster. It’s incredible. You look
at it and say, ‘Where’s your breather?’
There is no breather.”
No one on the roster is blinking at
the challenge. Senior guard Quinndary
Weatherspoon said practices have re-
vealed “the most competitive team I’ve
seen I’m my time here.”
For Weatherspoon and classmate
Aric Holman, schedules like this are
why they came to MSU.
“Coming out of high school, we came
from winning programs,” Holman said.
“We had our heads high when we first
got here and we told ourselves we want-
ed to get this program back on top.
That’s why we sacrificed, stayed all four
years. We love our teammates and want
to go out with a bang.”

In the second quar-
ter, MSU reeled off
16-straight points to get
things going. The Bull-
dogs held the Cavaliers
close to six minutes with-
out a point in that quarter.
In the first half, the
Bulldogs shot 50 percent
from the field for a 45-17
halftime lead.
“Defensively, we played
well,” Schaefer said. “We
guarded hard and forced
some turnovers. Proud of
Espinoza-Hunter. She had
been practicing but that
was not a game. Proud of
the seniors for setting the
tone. A lot of top 25 teams
are not playing this game
right now.”
MSU was 29-for-66
from the field (43.9 per-
cent), 7-for-23 shots from
3-point range (30.4), and
7-for-10 from the free-
throw line (70). Virginia
was 16-for-61 from the
field (26.2), 5-for-13 from
3-point range (38.5), and
7-for-12 from the free-
throw line (58.3).
Virginia held a 43-41
rebounding advantage.
The Bulldogs had 14 as-
sists and 12 turnovers,
while the Cavaliers had
seven assists and 24 turn-
overs.
Dominique Toussaint
led Virginia (0-1) with 19
points.

From student to soldier
Professor Emeritus Brent Funderburk, a William L. Giles Distinguished Professor of Art at Mississippi State University, points out elements Wednesday of William Steene’s
mural in Lee Hall to Alisha Street of the university’s English Department. The mural, commissioned in 1922, honors students of MSU — then the Agricultural and Mechani-
cal College of Mississippi — who lost their lives in World War I. Veterans Day 2018 marks the centennial of the end of combat in the Great War.
Almost 100 years after it was painted,
a local World War I mural still pays tribute
BY JAN SWOOPE
jswoope@cdispatch.com
T
odd Rowan of Starkville was just a young-
ster exploring the Mississippi State
campus when he first came across one of
the largest paintings he’d ever seen. The impos-
ing figures in artist William Steene’s sweeping
12-by-16-foot mural in Lee Hall towered above
him. Some of them carried weapons and, to a
child, the woman at the center of the dramatic
scene must have looked like royalty. The theme
was probably lost on one so young, but in the
years since, Rowan has studied the mural many
times over. He’s a muralist himself now, with
unique appreciation for Steene’s creation of one
of the state’s prominent World War I memorials.
It honors 55 students of the then-Agricultural
and Mechanical College of Mississippi who put
down their books, took up arms and paid the
ultimate sacrifice.
Almost a century after Steene was commis-
sioned by A&M alumni to paint the mural, it still
stands in tribute, inspiring viewers like Rowan,
especially today — Veterans Day 2018, which
marks 100 years since the initial armistice sig-
naling an end to combat in the Great War.
The impressive artwork fits into the tapestry
of MSU’s commitment to men and women who
serve, said Sid Salter. He is chief communica-
tions officer at the university that is home to the
G.V. “Sonny” Montgomery Center for America’s
Veterans. In August, the school recognized
for its veteran-friendly campus and culture
announced establishment of the Bulldog Free
Tuition Program for Mississippi National Guard
members enrolled full-time.
“I think the fact that the center
of our campus is the Drill Field
points up that MSU is very proud
of our military heritage,” Salter
said. That so many students have
served, since the university’s
founding in 1878 to today, “makes
the mural something we take a lot
of pride in because it reflects the Salter
spirit and the sacrifice of all those
cadets who walked and marched and drilled on
that space,” he continued.
New York transplant
Exactly how New York-born William Robert
Steene (1887-1965) — who studied with ear-
ly-20th century masters in Europe and America
and became a nationally known portrait painter
of presidents and dignitaries — came to paint in
Biloxi Historical Society
William Robert Steene (1887-1965)
Mississippi may be something of a mystery, but
it seems safe to say he liked the place.
“He lived in Columbus for a few years, and he
really loved the Gulf Coast,” said
Brent Funderburk, MSU professor
emeritus and William L. Giles
Distinguished Professor of Art.
“He also lived in Ocean Springs
and spent the last 14 years of his
life there.”
Funderburk has frequently
taken art students to the mural to Funderburk
study Steene’s work.
“It’s heroic in scale and in subject. It deals
with multiple figures, and it’s very beautifully
modeled,” he said. “Steene studied with the
great American teacher and painter Robert
Henri at the National Academy of Design, and
a lot of what I teach is from the foundation of
Henri. He’s considered perhaps the best teacher
in his time that brought European classical

knowledge to the studios in the U.S.”
On his way to eventually painting President
Franklin D. Roosevelt, golfing legend Robert
Trent “Bobby” Jones, U.S. Sen. and former Mis-
sissippi Gov. Theodore Bilbo and Chicago Art
Institute Honorary President Frank C. Logan,
Steene was in Starkville, applying his moving
mural in oil on canvas for Lee Hall.
The vision
Steene’s mural depicts young A&M students
preparing for their chosen vocations. They carry
textbooks and implements of their hoped-for
careers. Behind them are green fields, but storm
clouds of war gather in the distance. The young
men are pictured again, this time discarding
their textbooks, which are replaced with guns.
In the background, the campus smoke stack and
twin towers of the Textile Building are visible.
In the mural’s center, the students have be-
come soldiers and sailors defending civilization,
personified by a seated female figure. Her right
hand holds a closed book, representing the end
of academics. Her left hand lifts a torch of liberty.
The globe below her is symbolic of the world war.
A kneeling male figure holds a scroll containing
the charter of human rights. The college is identi-
fied with the letters “A” and “M” within a circle
in the foreground. Above it all reads, “Who gave
their merry youth away for country and for God.”
“I remember seeing it growing up as a kid,”
said Rowan, a graduating senior in
fine art. He recently, with another
student, completed a 50-foot-long
mural in the Dunn-Seiler Geology
Museum on campus. “I’ve always
been interested in art; it was always
my destiny to be in art, and when
you see something like that, espe-
cially in Mississippi where public Rowan
art isn’t always so prominent, you
stop and you look and you pay
attention.”
He marvels at the process Steene must have
gone through in the early 1920s to paint such a
large-scale work.
“It’s hard to think it’s been almost 100 years,”
Rowen said. “This was well before any sort of
digital (technology) to help with something like
getting (a design) from small to large scale and
still keeping it sound. I have the luxury of things
like projectors and computers that artists of that
time didn’t have.”

“For a place like Mississip-

will be especially powerful,
touching on race, rhythm and

director of the Institute for
the Humanities. “She will be
bringing together so many
elements of the humanities
— music, history, culture and
identity in her talk.”
Kei Mamiya, program
coordinator of the Holmes
Cultural Diversity Center, said
Braggs’ book discussion “fits
perfectly” with the purpose
of International Education
Week. “Students will be able
to engage in and learn about
Braggs’ broad and deep
research fields including race,
music, culture, migration and
history, and also relationships
among these social factors,”

Playing in the dirt

November, a month for planning and even planting

W
arm days, cool
days, stormy
days. Oh my!
November has offered us
a varied menu so far. But
weather aside, Novem-
ber is a sort of stepchild
among months, sand-
wiched between October Carrigan
and December —Hallow-
een and Christmas — arguably two of
the best-loved holidays. But I refuse to
ignore Thanksgiving.
I enjoy the idea of turkeys, pump-
kins and autumnal reds, yellows and
bronzes. I refuse to listen to Christmas
music, or watch Christmas movies,
until Dec. 1. I like to curl up with a cup
of coffee or tea and contemplate the
blessings for which I am wholeheart-
edly grateful. It’s also a great time to
begin to plan what you want to do in
the garden next year. If you are really
ambitious, you can plot out a new bed or
the rearrangement of an older one. Get
out a gardening book or, if you have an
old one, a seed catalog. (New ones are
not out just yet.) On days when weather
allows, all those leaves in the yard can
be raked up into a pile where a new bed
might go! And aside from raking leaves,
there are still some other things to do
in the garden.
If you would like to develop some
friends who also enjoy gardening, or if
you would like to learn more about your
yard and garden than raking leaves in
the fall, the Master Gardeners of Lown-
des County would love to make your ac-
quaintance. But come prepared to work,
laugh and eat. We can help you with all
those skills, in addition to gardening.
Classes are coming up in late January
or February. Watch for more specifics
in the next few weeks. In the meantime,
here are some tips for you to use when
you go out to play in the dirt.
This month
n Plant shrubs and trees. Plant sum-
mer blooming perennials: iris, daylily
and daisies. Plant winter and spring an-
nuals: pansy, pinks, flowering cabbage
and kale. Root rose cuttings (learn how
with Master Gardeners).
n Water all newly-planted trees and
plants regularly.
n Prune dead limbs and prune
evergreen shrubs. Cut off tops of brown
perennials; leave roots in the soil.
n Do not prune spring flowering
shrubs such as azaleas, hydrangeas,
Mock Orange, spirea and flowering
quince because flower buds are already
forming. Delay pruning of most trees
and shrubs until February since any new
growth stimulated by pruning may be
killed by a sudden freeze.
n Put leaves and spent annuals into a
compost bin. Add mulch to your garden
and all ornamental beds for winter pro-
tection. Repair and sharpen garden tools,
store with a light coat of oil to prevent
rusting. Build bird feeders and houses.
Happy playing.

Southern Gardening
Cool-season dianthus lasts through spring
I
love the an-
nual color we
can grow all
winter in most
of our Missis-
sippi gardens
and landscapes,
so I’m going
to spend a few
weeks con-
centrating on
cool-season col-
or. Dianthus is Gary Bachman
my first choice
for fall color.
In my coastal Ocean Springs land-
scape, the dianthus I’m planting now
will carry through until spring for an
outstanding color display. Planting in
the fall allows for a robust root system
to develop through the winter, and it re-
sults in a beautiful and colorful display
next spring.
We all know there will be days and
nights with freezing temperatures.
During these colder periods, any open
flowers will be damaged. Depending on
how low the temperature gets, even the
foliage will start to turn purplish. I like
to think of it as the leaves shivering a
bit.
In the southern half of the state, the
plants recover from these brief freez-
ing bouts to bloom again. In northern
Mississippi, you must provide some
protection from cold weather for fall
dianthus plantings, or you may simply
replant next spring.
I adore the Telstar series of dianthus.
Their great colors range from carmine

Mississippi, a little cold weather protection is needed.
rose, pink and purple to one that is
almost red. There are a couple of pretty
bicolors that are called picottees.
Telstar is the perfect choice for mass
planting in the landscape. These are
uniform growing, have a sturdy habit
and get only about 10 inches tall and
wide.
Another good choice is the Super
Parfait series. Super Parfait dianthuses
are indeed super, and they are cold
weather tolerant, as well. This group
is known for its compact size and large

blossoms that reach 2 to 2 1/2 inches in
diameter.
But don’t think you’re out of luck
if you can’t find these named series.
This weekend, I bought some really
nice-looking generic dianthuses at the
garden center.
Dianthus has a uniform growing hab-
it that makes it a perfect mass planting
choice. For best performance, always
plant in full sun in well-drained soil.
Dianthus is susceptible to root disease
problems and doesn’t like wet feet. This
is a concern in Mississippi’s cool, wet
falls and winters.
Dianthus is also a great choice for
colorful combination containers. Try
pairing with pansies and violas for a
great cool-season container. Cool Wave
pansies have an improved, trailing
growth habit that makes them fantastic
spiller plants for containers.
All dianthuses are moderate to
heavy feeders. At planting, place about
a tablespoon of a good, slow-release
fertilizer in the planting hole, and then
supplement monthly with a water-solu-
ble fertilizer. To encourage more lateral
growth and more flowers, pinch or
prune back the plants a couple of inches
after the first flush of flowers.
Many people I talk to are surprised
that dianthus flowers are edible, just
like pansies and violas. Gather the
flowers, gently wash them and pat dry.
Softly pull on the petals to separate
them from the base. Add the petals to
any fresh lettuce or fruit salad.
Be careful when selecting plants for
edible flowers from the nurseries and
garden centers, as you don’t know how
they have been treated during the pro-
duction phase. But you can easily grow
dianthus from seed. This way you can
grow exactly the varieties and colors
you want.

Horoscopes
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov.
11). The firsts in life are
always the most memorable
— for instance, the first kiss
or the first time you drive
alone. You’ll be surprised and
delighted by what sort of firsts
come up this year. Other high-
lights include an award given
by your peers, a meaningful
dance or artful expression,
and a far-flung gathering. Leo
and Pisces adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 17, 9, 22,
29 and 15.
ARIES (March 21-April
19). Understand more, fear
less. It’s not really a goal; it’s
just the natural result when
you lead with your curious
mind and follow up with your
courteous ways.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20). The good thing about
envy is that it gives people
a window into their potential
that they may not have seen
before. We tend to be envious
of the things that we have in
us to accomplish.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You’ll run into another one of
love’s paradoxes: You want
someone to put your happi-
ness first, but this can happen
only when you put another’s
first. It works out best when
two people can be made hap-
py by the same sorts of things.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Sometimes it feels like
you against the world when
it’s really only you against
a few things that didn’t go
immediately right. After you
take a breath and adjust your
attitude, try again; the world
will get on your side.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Your style isn’t just how you
dress or what you own; it’s
much deeper than that. It’s a
mood, a tone, a way of moving
about the world. Your outside
is changing to reflect the new
style emerging in you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Beauty exists in the mind. It’s
only an idea, but it’s a conta-
gious one. You’ll see beauty
and enhance it with the quality
of your attention. Then others
who didn’t see it before will
see it, too.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
It’s once again time to get rid
of some superfluous things.
This is becoming easier for
you because the benefits are
so rewarding. Eliminate what
you don’t need so that what
you do need will become clear.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Do research before you
take out your wallet. You will
either save a bundle or wind
up spending about the same
but feeling much better about
it because you investigated
other options.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). Sorrow is imperma-
nent, and faith is essential.
Think back to the younger
you. Wouldn’t you rush back
and share the message if you
could? Your efforts are not
in vain, and neither are your
dreams.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). It’s one thing to get
attention and another thing
to hold it. The same goes for
power, love, money and any
number of possessions. At-
taining tends to be easier than
maintaining.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You assume responsibil-
ity for the fulfillment of your
loved one’s needs. Whether
this should be the case is
another discussion, though
unquestionably, you’re made
stronger by your caring efforts.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). When does self-care
become self-indulgence? The
difference between what feels
good and what is good for
you is known by your higher
