THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO, Calif.
A black teenager says
he was escorted out of his
high school graduation
ceremony in Sacramento
by three deputies for refusing to remove his kente
cloth, a traditional Ghanaian silk and cotton fabric.
Nyree Holmes said
Saturday that he wore the
decorative cloth atop his
graduation robes to have
something with him that
represented his culture
during the ceremony at
Sacramentos Sleep Train
Arena on Tuesday.
The kente represents
my culture that I have no

superintendent at a crossroads trim services
UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME
BY JEFF AMY
The Associated Press
JACKSON Carey Wright wanted to be a superintendent pretty badly, but sometimes you have to wonder if she knew what she was getting
into when she took the job leading
Mississippis public schools.
Just in the last month, the governor made it harder for Wright to
reorganize the state Department
of Education by vetoing a bill that
would have exempted the department from civil service rules, partly
over concerns that the departments
chief information officer, John Porter, was being paid more than the
legal limit.
Then majorities of the state
House and Senate sent ugly letters
demanding that the department get
on board with a plan to fight the
federal government over transgender bathroom policy. Some of those
called for Wright to be fired, and
they all had threats of political repri-

In the first, councilmen and

Later, councilmen and the

Superman has
left the building
I need a hero ... And hes
gotta be sure, and its gotta
be soon and hes gotta be
larger than life ... And hes
gotta be strong and hes gotta
be fast and hes gotta be fresh
from the fight. I need a hero.
Footloose, 1984
Sam and I went to see
Prairie neighbors Nick and
Eleanor Hairstons grandShannon Bardwell
daughter Reeds school
musical where she belted
out the Hero song. Ive been thinking about that
song ever since.
We were so knocked out by the talent, enthusiasm and participation of so many kids, weve havent
stopped talking about it. We saw another impressive
school musical, Aida, and were planning to see the
school performance of The Lion, the Witch and the
Wardrobe, when unexpected company dropped in.
Thinking about the Hero lyrics made me realize
how fast things are changing in the world and that
its a wonder we arent all dizzy.
One morning while walking with Shirley and
Robin, Robin brought up the days of the blue laws
and the time her mother went to the drugstore on a
Sunday afternoon to get a prescription filled. She saw
a lawn chair and thought how nice it would be to sit
in the backyard, but she couldnt buy the chair due to
the blue laws.
I recounted hearing of a Sunday School teacher
who called in late Saturday night saying she couldnt
teach the next mornings class because her sons soccer team won their games and was now playing at 9
a.m. Sunday morning. My, how things have changed.
Occasionally I stop by Starkvilles wonder-filled
new Kroger grocery store. You need to be in the
mood for browsing to see all the features like amazing buffets, sit-down sushi bar, Starbucks coffee
shop, flower shop, rows of kitchen gadgets and small
appliances, not to mention all the fresh produce and
groceries.
And the bathrooms. Designers were thinking
ahead when they hung the signs, Family Restrooms. Just inside the alcove are door No. 1 Men,
door No. 2 Women, and door No. 3 Unisex.
Sharing the description of the bathrooms to a
young 30-something prompted this conversation:
She said, I dont know why all bathrooms and
shower/locker rooms arent private anyway. I remember being totally traumatized by junior high locker
rooms. Girls can be very mean.
She looked at Sam, And the whole concept of
urinals is just weird.
Somewhere along the way I feel like Ive fallen off
the moving sidewalk of progress. When did all the
rules change? Some of the language, I dont speak.
Some of the concepts, I cant wrap my brain around.
If my computer goes down, I cant work.
I wish I could ask my parents if they ever felt like
I do? Did my grandparents? Did electric motors send
them into a tailspin?
Who is in charge? Is anybody? Is the dearly departed Prince our hero? My friend Michele thought
Prince was somebodys dog. Does anybody know
what time it is?
I desperately need a hero, and hes gotta be sure
and hes gotta be strong and Id like it to be now.

READER COMMENT
Danny Coggins: Oak Lawn Cemetery in Richmond has a historical marker claiming credit for the
first Declaration Day. I understand there are a dozen
or so cities in the nation making the same claim.
Who is first is not important to me, but rather a great
first step in understanding and healing began with
this thought. Such sad days and even compounded
with the fact that so many were marked unknown.
Families hoping and wondering what happened.
Always enjoy reading what Rufus writes.

Newman

bwait@cdispatch.com
STARKVILLE After
one season with the Mississippi State basketball
team, five-star guard Malik Newman will transfer,
coach Ben Howland announced Monday.
The former Callaway
High School
standout
was expected to be a
one -anddone player. He went
through the
Newman
NBA Combine earlier
this month, but he withdrew before the deadline
Wednesday. Last week,
ESPN reported Newman
was considering transferring from MSU, but his
father, Horatio Webster,
wanted to meet with Howland and MSU before making a decision.
After meeting last
weekend, Webster said
the transfer is due to a culmination of things, most
notably a clash in styles.
I dont think the way
he was played sort of fit
the way he plays, Webster
said. Not saying Ben is a
bad coach, it just didnt fit
his style of play.

Newman battled with
I.J. Ready at point guard.
Ready, a rising senior, returns this season.
Bothered by injuries,
Newman played in 29

Touring Series continued Sunday night with a
$2,000 win at Magnolia
Motor Speedway.

an open mind.
Part of Dedwylders
strategy was his tire selection, a decision that
helped him hold off Bran-
Heath Beard (5) tries to hold off Brad Gable (47), who
is right on his bumper, in their Factory Stocks race
Sunday night at Magnolia Motor Speedway.

of the playoffs.
Tanger put it right on my stick,
Bonino said. It was a shot that wasnt
my hardest shot by any means, but I kind
of found a way to flip it over him.
Bonino has spent much of the last two
months as the heady, understated center
on Pittsburghs hottest line while playing
between hard-shooting Phil Kessel and
Hagelin. Dubbed HBK a chant that
occasionally greets them when they flip
over the boards and onto the ice they
have powered the Penguins to their first
Cup Final in seven years. Yet it was Bonino, whose hockey IQ is considered his
greatest attribute by Pittsburgh coach
Mike Sullivan, who scored the groups
biggest goal of the postseason.
He does all the things right and
found himself in a great position and capitalized on it, Pittsburgh forward Chris
Kunitz said.
Rookies Bryan Rust and Conor
Sheary also scored for the Penguins,
though Rust left in the third period after
absorbing a shot to the head from San
Joses Patrick Marleau.

The DispaTch
MSU in Starkville.
I think that really showed us
who they were as a team, Vickerson said. They were on top
and then they got punched in the
mouth. I think that showed a lot
about who they were.
After the LSU series win, Parks
felt like the schedule set up nicely
for MSU to gain a national seed.
MSU swept Missouri, Auburn, and
Arkansas to lock up a national seed.
MSU didnt host a super regional in 2013 when it advanced to the
College World series and finished
as national runner-up to UCLA.
Vickerson hopes he will be able
to make it to Starkville this weekend to be a part of the atmosphere
and the packed house at Dudy Noble Field.
We all know Starkville is one
of the best places to play college
baseball in the country, if not the
best, Vickerson said. If you can
have some confidence going into
the postseason, it really helps you.
I think being at home and being in
front of your home fans, thats going to give you all the confidence
you need. Its a special feeling, and
Im excited for those guys.
Parks knows MSU coach John
Cohen and the Bulldogs are focused on Southeast Missouri State.
He also realizes the current players
will need a little time to recognize
the significance of their accomplishments this season.
Parks expects to be part of the
crowd at Dudy Noble Field. As he
mingles with what could be 15,000
of his closest friends, he likely will
think back to 2011 and what could
have been. But hell know the 2016
Bulldogs wont have to face the
same adversity he and Vickerson
did.
Thats where its going to be
huge, in those clutch moments,
those big-time moments when you
need a crowd, Parks said.

RESIDENTIAL RECYCLING
tweeted Monday, Where
(is) this juco rumor coming from? Due to NCAA
transfer rules, Newman
will have to sit out one
year if he transfers to a Division I school.
Newman picked MSU
over Kentucky, Kansas,
and Ole Miss among others
last May. Webster said they
havent thought about possible landing spots.
MSUs all-time winningest coach Rick Stansbury
(293 wins) was hired by
Western Kentucky this offseason. Stansbury recruited Newman as an assistant
coach at Texas A&M. There
have been reports Western
Kentucky could be a landing spot for Newman.
Its going to be a
high-major, Division I
school, Webster said.
