Jackson recalled as man of the people 

By LISA MARCHESONI 

and MICHELLE WILLARD 

Murfreesboro’s longest serving 

mayor Joe B. Jackson died Tuesday. 

Jackson served as mayor of 

Murfreesboro from 1982-1998, 

during an historic time of growth 

and prosperity in the city. 

“He was a wonderful mayor,” 

said current Murfreesboro Mayor 

Tommy Bragg. “He was kind, 

thoughtful and very farsighted in 

growth in our economy and growth 

in our neighborhoods. He was really a citizen 

mayor.” 

“He was a kind, loving and caring person 

who always tried to make the best decision, 

…” Bragg said. “He fostered the wonderful 

city government we enjoy today.” 

Jackson served almost 30 continuous years 

in city government, having been elected to 

City Council in 1968, chosen as vice mayor 

in 1978 and finally elected Murfreesboro 

mayor in 1982 and serving until 1998. He was 

named Tennessee Mayor of the Year in 1988 

and 1994. 

Bragg ordered flags to fly at half-mast in 

Jackson’s memory. 

A standout MTSU athlete, World War II veteran 

and successful businessman in the roofing 

industry, Jackson became mayor just as 

Murfreesboro took off on an unprecedented 

growth spurt that saw the city double in size 

during his tenure. 

“He’s the foundation of what Murfreesboro 

today is built on,” said Murfreesboro Vice 

Mayor Chris Bratcher, who was first elected 

to the City Council in 1988 and served with 

Jackson for 10 years. 

Bratcher said Jackson did so much for the 

city, it is hard to “pinpoint one thing” he will 

be remembered for. 

Mary Scales, Murfreesboro’s first black 

councilwoman, remembers Jackson as a man 

of the people. 

“It was such a joy serving with him,” Scales 

said. “He certainly had the best interests of the 

people of Murfreesboro at heart. … I wish we 

had more people like that who loved this 

town.”

LOCAL NEWS 

City police officers say pay plan not enough 

By LISA MARCHESONI 

Senior Writer 

With huge increases in 

gas prices, Murfreesboro 

Police Sgt. Shawn Murphy 

believes his proposed step 

raise of 3.5 percent plus 1 

percent won’t be enough to 

keep up with rising costs. 

Sgt. Sam Campbell 

agrees. For a starting police 

officer, a 1 percent 

raise would add about 

$350 to annual pay. 

“Insurance will go up 

more than that,” Campbell 

said. 

Sixteen-year veterans 

Murphy and Campbell 

commented after hearing 

consultant Steve Thompson 

recommend Monday 

the Murfreesboro Mayor 

and City Council improve 

salaries for all city employees 

with an additional cost 

of $631,971. 

City Manager Roger 

Haley said each penny of 

property tax collections 

raises $240,000. 

Mayor Tommy Bragg 

said the funding depends 

on how much money the 

taxpayers want to fund. 

The mayor and council 

will review the plan during 

budget sessions. 

Thompson of Burris, 

Thompson and Associates 

explained the city implemented 

a new pay plan in 

2004 and updated it two 

years later. The city council 

asked for the proposed 

pay plan to target the 60th 

percentile of salary in July 

2009 to comparable jobs in 

other cities. The 60th percentile 

means 60 percent of 

other cities would pay 

below Murfreesboro next 

year, which Thompson 

termed an aggressive approach. 

Most city employees’ 

salaries increased 7 percent 

during the past two years 

while employees in the private 

market increased 8 

percent, making city employees’ 

salaries lag by 1 

percent. 

Thompson recommended: 

Dropping the lowest 

step and adding another 

step at the top so the starting 

pay is higher and veteran 

employees wouldn’t 

be topped out as quickly.

Each step equals 3.5 percent. 

For example, an officer 

would start out at $33,471 

and top out 12 steps later at 

$48,866. 

Adding three more 

steps for police and firefighters 

who are certified 

employees. 

Adding 1 percent to recoup 

the 1 percent shortfall. 

To reach the recommendations, 

researchers compared 

40 similar jobs in 

cities close to Murfreesboro’s 

population in both 

the public and private sectors. 

The cities of Smyrna, 

Lebanon, Franklin and 

Brentwood raised pay to 

keep employees tempted 

by higher salaries in Metro 

Nashville. 

Police Chief Glenn 

Chrisman reported only 

four Murfreesboro Police 

officers left the city during 

the past five years to work 

at another law enforcement 

agency. Eleven officers left 

for jobs in the private sector. 

Murphy said the plan 

doesn’t go far enough. 

Other law enforcement 

agencies get a cost-ofliving 

raise of 6 percent 

while Murfreesboro police 

get 4 percent, he said. 

“I feel like the city is 

growing this rapidly and 

with costs going up — but 

not pay — the demands 

placed on employees is not 

adjusted fairly,” Murphy 

said. 

Campbell said the 4.5 

percent increase isn’t 

enough to bring city employees 

into the market 

value of Smyrna and 

Nashville, cities who start 

officers in the $40,000 

range. 

“It doesn’t bring true 

market value,” Campbell

said. “For me, give a step 

raise and 8 percent cost-ofliving. 

They (mayor and 

council) need to bite the 

bullet and bring us in line 

with everyone else.” 

Haley said the last time 

city employees didn’t get a 

raise was in 1987. Under 

the present pay plan, employees 

receive automatic 

3.5 percent step raises each 

year. 

Salaries for starting police 

officers may not be as 

high as other cities but the 

city pays for their certification 

training in hopes they 

will remain with the city, 

which offers a good bene- 

fits package. 

“I believe that the mayor 

and city council have 

adopted the most aggressive 

pay plan that could be 

funded and served all of 

our employees in an appropriate 

and fair manner,” 

Haley said. 

Both Murphy and 

Campbell agree police and 

firefighters should not receive 

more pay for hazardous 

jobs because in 

Campbell’s words, “It 

takes us all to make this 

city great.”

COVER STORY 

Downtown hopes to convert JazzFest visitors into customers 

By ERIN EDGEMON 

Business Editor 

Downtown business 

owners are hoping to convert 

the estimated 25,000 

visitors expected to attend 

the 12th annual Main 

Street JazzFest into customers. 

But they know these visitors 

likely won’t turn into 

customers until their second 

or third visit downtown. 

“What we have found 

with JazzFest is that it is a 

wonderful time for people 

who are not familiar with 

downtown to look around,” 

said Chris Gerbman, owner 

of Country Gourmet at 107 

E. Main St. 

“We do see a lot of return 

from that,” he said of the 

festival. “It may not be a 

good day in terms of huge 

sales, but we do have a 

huge number of people 

who come through.” 

Gerbman passed out 

more than 800 business 

cards and gave out free 

food samples during the 

first JazzFest. 

“We had a huge callback 

after that all year long,” he 

said. 

Murfreesboro/Rutherford 

County Inc., a nonprofit 

Main Street 

revitalization organization, 

founded JazzFest as a way 

to promote and draw a 

large crowd to downtown 

Murfreesboro. 

JazzFest is May 2 and 3 

on the Public Square. The 

Saturday night headliner is 

Grammy Award-winning 

trumpeter Nicholas Payton. 

His quintet will take 

the main stage at 7:30 p.m. 

“It is not an event that 

probably draws a lot of 

business directly to them 

(downtown businesses) but 

indirectly they have an opportunity 

to meet and greet 

a lot of people coming 

downtown,” said Richard 

Gabel, executive director 

of the Main Street program. 

Bill Shacklett, of Shack-

lett’s Photography on the 

Public Square, added, 

“JazzFest is kind of the 

magnet that allows people 

to be exposed to the downtown 

that we have.” 

JazzFest has also become 

a fundraiser for the Main 

Street program. JazzFest 

profits — from T-shirt and 

vendor sales and donations 

— now accounts for nearly 

17 percent of the organization’s 

$300,000 general 

operating budget. 

Organizers are optimistic 

that record high gasoline 

prices won’t affect attendance 

at the free event. 

They are hoping the festival 

will provide a boost for 

downtown businesses, 

many of which, like in the 

rest of the country, have 

suffered from weakened 

sales over the last few 

months. 

“The festival offers so 

much value that it won’t be 

affected that much by gas 

prices,” said Mona Herring, 

vice president of the 

Convention and Visitors 

Bureau at the Rutherford 

County Chamber of Commerce. 

Past festivals have attracted 

people from all 

over Middle Tennessee, 

West Tennessee, southern 

Kentucky and northern Alabama. 

“It’s an event that contiues 

to grow every year 

and brings a lot of people 

to Murfreesboro, not only 

our residents, but I think it 

is a regional draw that people 

look forward to year 

after year,” Herring said. 

To find out more about 

who attends JazzFest, several 

Blackman High 

School students, working 

with the Main Street program, 

will conduct surveys 

with approximately 1,000 

to 2,000 festival attendees. 

Random attendees will

annual JazzFest. 

be asked five to 10 questions, 

including how they 

learned about the festival, 

how much they planned to 

spend at vendors, where 

they traveled from and 

their overall impressions of 

the festival. 

“It is to find out more 

about our audience and 

who they are,” Gabel said. 

“I think the better we know 

our audience the better we 

can serve them in future 

JazzFests. 

He said it has been several 

years since JazzFest 

organizers have conducted 

this type of survey. Organizers 

also hope to better 

track attendance numbers. 

Several downtown businesses 

will be open extended 

hours, have outdoor 

displays and offer special 

promotions to attract potential 

customers into their 

stores. 

“This is the first time for 

us to be open on the Square 

for JazzFest,” said Judy 

Jamison, who operates 

Jamison Galleries of Art, 

which features artwork by 

her husband Jeff. “We are 

hoping for a good turn 

out.” 

The gallery located at 

109 S. Church St., almost 

directly across the street 

from JazzFest’s main 

stage, will have its door 

open and offer new prints 

from Jeff’s Murfreesboro 

series. Work from local 

artist Mary Veazie also will 

be featured. 

The Country Gourmet 

invited Chef Randy 

Tomasacci of Bittersweet 

Herb Farm, a gourmet food 

company specializing in 

jams, mustard, vinegars 

and oils based in Shelburne, 

Mass., to hold a 

cooking demonstration 

May 3. 

Elrod & Co. Women’s 

Apparel, 107 S. Church 

St., will have a sidewalk 

sale for much of JazzFest, 

confirmed owner David 

Elrod. 

“I am going to bring in 

whimsical gift items to 

sell,” he said. “I will give 

out information and promote 

the store as much as I 

can.” 

Owners of the new Walnut 

& Vine Antiques, located 

at the corner of 

Walnut and Vine streets, 

are planning a tailgate sale 

in the store’s back parking 

lot that faces Walnut Street. 

Everything from glassware 

to artwork and furniture 

will be for sale. 

Vendor space is still available. 

“We are hoping that it 

will be good for business 

downtown and make people 

aware of our store that 

haven’t been in before,” 

said Rebecca Gunter, of 

JazzFest. Gunter owns the 

store, which opened in 

March, with business partner 

Wanda Parker. 

Mike Zelenak, owner of 

Maple Street Grill at 109 

N. Maple St., plans to take 

advantage of JazzFest by 

offering food specials for 

attendees looking for a 

break from the heat. 

He expects to offer a 

Cuban sandwich — a 

restaurant specialty — 

along with a bottle of water 

for $5. 

Maple Street Grill didn’t 

see any increased business 

last year likely due to the 

wide variety of food vendors 

that line the Public 

Square during the festival. 

“We are going to take advantage 

of it” this year, Zelenak 

said.

Brinkman said. 

1. Free Day in May is

Prescription Compounding... 

another innovation from 

Reeves-Sain Drug Store has the ability to compound an infinite variety 

of formulations designed to meet patients' individual needs. 

All of our formulations meet or exceed the highest industry standards 

for excellence. 

What is Custom Compounding? 

A customized medication prepared by a pharmacist according to a doctor’s 

specifications to meet an individual patient's need. Pharmacists make 

medications from scratch using raw materials, powders and devices. 

Preservative-Free and Allergy-Free Formulations 

We are able to compound medications without the excipients and preservatives 

found in most commercial preparations. Suitable replacements free 

of color, starch, yeast, sugar and preservatives are easily formulated. 

Discontinued Medicines 

Hundreds of medicines are voluntarily withdrawn from the marketplace 

each year. A needed treatment may not be available due to a small market 

share or lack of profitability. A compounded replacement may be possible. 

Dosage Variation 

A tablet or capsule may need to be converted into a liquid, suppository, 

cream, or gel form. The exact dosage, or the ideal dosage a patient needs, 

may not be commercially available. Compounding can provide any dosage 

form the patient needs. 

Custom Formulations 

You and your health care provider can create your own single or combination 

treatment protocol using any delivery system you choose. 

Medicines Not Commercially Available 

Many formulations will never be commercially developed due to difficulty 

in obtaining patents and lack of market demand. Compounding allows for 

medical treatments that otherwise may not be possible.

‘Relay For Life’ runs through decades 

By MICHELLE WILLARD 


Andy Womack has received 

many local accolades, but 

being named one of three Honorary 

Chairs for the 2008 Relay 

For Life of Rutherford County 

is one he’d rather not have. 

“It’s an honor to be selected, 

and I certainly hope my name 

will help in the fundraising efforts 

of the Relay for Life, but 

it’s not nice having cancer 

again. Meeting the qualifications 

is tough,” Womack said. 

American Cancer Society’s 

Relay For Life of Rutherford 

County is one of the largest 

community fundraisers in the 

world and provides the community 

a chance to join the 

fight against cancer. 

“Relay For Life represents 

hope that those lost to cancer 

will never be forgotten, that 

those who face cancer will be 

supported and that one day 

cancer will be eliminated,” said 

Sherry Lemerand, event chair. 

The overnight event is held 

from 6 p.m.-6 a.m. Friday, May 

2, at Siegel High School’s 

Football Field. In case of rain, 

the relay will be held in 

Siegel’s gymnasium. 

To sign up individually or as 

a team, visit www.events.cancer.org/rflrutherfordtn. 

“During our event, teams 

gather at Siegel High School’s 

football field and take turns 

walking or running laps,” 

Lemerand said. “Each team 

tries to keep at least one team 

member on the track at all 

times.” 

The theme for the 2008 relay 

is “Through the Decades.” 

Each chair was chosen because 

they represent an age group 

and they’ve all had cancer 

twice. 

Amanda Pierson is the 

youngest chair at 13 years old. 

Pierson was diagnosed with 

cancer of the brain. 

Womack represents the older 

one in the age group between 

Womack and Pierson, had entered 

remission after completing 

treatment. She underwent a 

double mastectomy and 

chemotherapy from a breast 

cancer diagnosis. 

Wright, a registered nurse at 

Middle Tennessee Medical 

Center, said she was 99 percent 

cured after the treatment but the 

cancer returned to the little 

breast tissue she had left and 

spread to her lymph nodes and 

bones.

Managing Editor Mike West 

Murfreesboro TN, 37129 869-0800 

Giving a voice to Tennessee’s most dynamic city 

Joe B. Jackson, the former Murfreesboro mayor who was 

buried Saturday, served our city in an official capacity for 30 

years. His legacy will live much longer than that. 

Jackson was mayor from 1982-1998, probably as challenging 

a time for a Murfreesboro mayor since the Civil War which To the editor, 

brought here the Battle of Stones River and federal occupation. Do we want to pay price of not grow-

In Jackson’s tenure as mayor Murfreesboro virtually doubled in Chicago. Good jobs were simply not 

population and faced all the myriad issues any community faces available, Chicago promised a better 

dealing with such a high rate of growth. 

life. My grandmother was very upset; 

Due in no small part of Jackson’s steady leadership and tremen- she just knew that she would never see 

dous vision, Murfreesboro experienced that growth and still man- her daughter again. Chicago was a milaged 

to maintain largely its enviable quality of life. 

Often growth and change overwhelm a small city, turning it 

into a lifeless collection of housing developments, national franchises 

and strip malls. 

While Murfreesboro certainly saw a multitude of all those, the 

city kept, indeed even enhanced, its identity. 

Jackson’s role in maintaining that identity and the city’s 

friendly, inviting quality of life cannot be overplayed. 

He epitomized the friendly, progressive nature of our community. 

Despite his many accomplishments as a superb college athlete, 

self-made businessman, World War II veteran and successful political 

figure, Jackson was a humble, outgoing gentleman and 

statesman who treated all with consummate courtesy and respect. 

The latter undoubtedly played a major role in his being elected 

to office in Murfreesboro for some 30 years. 

Jackson was also a listener. He was willing to hear what those 

he served had to say, and due to his high energy level he seemed 

to be just about anywhere members of the community gathered 

in a good cause or out of a particular area of concern, making 

himself available to the general public. 

But, Jackson went beyond listening. He educated. 

Murfreesboro lifted its assets and services in almost every area 

during his tenure from the St. Clair Senior Citizen Center to the 

Murfreesboro Airport to the Greenway system to City Hall. 

With many of those projects, notably City Hall and the greenway, 

the city invested in ideas above the norm, resulting as would 

be expected in considerable community debate. 

Jackson’s stature, his character and his nature allowed him to go 

into the community, speak to concerns, address them and build a 

consensus. 

He did that time after time, allowing the city to move forward 

in so many ways to become the excellent community it is today. 

For all the city’s accomplishments under his tenure and many 

times because of his efforts, Jackson was never one to claim 

credit. 

In fact, he constantly deflected such to others and the community 

at large. 

For example, when the city rightfully named the road connecting 

the then new Interstate 24 interchange the Joe B. Jackson 

Parkway, at the dedication Jackson brought laughs when he selfdepreciatingly 

noted member of his family visiting Murfreesboro 

were surprised to see the road sign and wonder whether another 

Joe B. Jackson lived here. 

In truth, there was only one Joe B. Jackson, and we and this 

city are all so much better for that.

the world celebrated Earth Day 

without you this past Tuesday. 

Yes, I know this sounds like another 

made up holiday by the 

Hallmark Corporation and, yes, 

I know that basically every day 

is some sort of holiday nowadays. 

But Earth Day is an especially 

important day. At the Murfreesboro 

Post we feel it should be 

recognized as such. After all, 

it’s the least we can do seeing 

as how we deliver a paper to 

every Murfreesboro citizen 

whether they want it or not. I 

mean, if we’re going to basically 

clearcut an acre of trees a

the least we can do is celebrate 

Earth Day. And the least you 

can do is pick it up from your 

driveway instead of backing 

over it until it becomes permanently 

embedded in the concrete. 

Earth Day got off to a rough 

start for me. Lately we’ve been

of the ever-remote possibility

THERE OUGHT TO BE A LAW ... 

Earth Day observance success, except for dead critters 

STEPHEN LEWIS 

Post Columnist 

I possibly could 

get to a semi tractor-trailer. 

I don’t 

know exactly 

how much gas I 

saved but I do 

know my life 

flashed before 

my eyes more 

than once. The 

driver of the 

truck didn’t mind because, 

when I finally did pass him, he 

waved at me. It was either a 

wave or he was telling me I was 

No. 1. Typically you don’t use 

the middle finger to tell someone 

that but maybe he was 

missing a finger or something. 

I don’t promote this type of fuel 

efficiency strategy unless your 

last name is Gordon and your 

first name is Jeff. 

After the ride home and another 

friendly wave from a different 

truck driver, I settled in 

for a nice supper. To continue 

my support of Earth Day, I decided 

that we should not eat any 

meat. Did you know that the av- 

erage cow gives off .323 micrograms 

of methane gas every 

hour? So to show our support of 

Earth Day my wife prepared 

bean burritos with no meat. Did 

you know the average 40-yearold 

220-pound male gives off 

.326 micrograms of methane 

gas every hour after eating three 

burritos? My wife knows now. 

Next year she vows we will eat 

meat and eliminate one 

methane-producing cow from 

the Earth and one methane-producing 

husband. 

When supper was finished I 

turned on some TV. A news report 

said Al Gore was pushing 

for a reduction in CO2 gases. 

Apparently CO2 plays a role in 

global warming. And after last 

summer I don’t think I can take 

it if it gets any warmer. I remembered 

from science class 

that we breathe in oxygen and 

breathe out CO2. So I decided 

that if everyone in the world 

would hold his or her breath 

for like a minute at the same 

time we could make a huge 

dent in the amount of CO2 in 

the atmosphere. But without a 

way to get the word out to 

everyone in the world, I just 

decided to do it myself. After 

all, one person can make a difference. 

Note to self: intentional 

breath-holding in 

middle-aged people can cause 

a serious head rush followed 

by severe headache! 

So all in all, I would have to 

proclaim Earth Day 2008 a 

huge success. With the exception 

of a couple dead animals, 

I like to think I shrunk my carbon 

footprint if only just a little. 

You too can make a 

difference. So plan now for 

next year’s Earth Day. Until 

then I’ll get back to drinking 

my bottled water, eating my 

hamburgers off of Styrofoam 

plates, running my dishwasher 

at less than full capacity, burning 

my incandescent bulbs and 

leaving the water run while I 

brush my teeth. I mean after 

all, it’s Earth Day, not Earth 

Month.


Why? 

There are several good 

reasons: music, food and 

faces for a start. 

Hammerhaid loves 

music from longhair to 

hillbilly. While his idea of 

jazz is probably Charlie 

Daniels playing “Devil 

Went Down to Georgia,” 

he never misses JazzFest 

ever since it was expanded 

to two nights. 

And the food is just as 

good as the music. When 

he’s not groovin’ out, he is 

asking the perennial Hammerhaid 

question; “What 

we gonna eat next?” You 

can count on him eating at 

least two ears of roasted 

corn, a kabob or three, 

some barbecue and even 

some less traditional Hman 

fare from someplace 

like B. McNeel’s. 

Don’t forget the faces! 

JazzFest is Murfreesboro’s 

premier peoplewatching 

event, even 

surpassing Uncle Dave 

Macon Days. (“Not everybody 

at JazzFest is my 

cousin,” he quietly explained.) 

But what’s really got

Hammerhaid’s once again hyped about this year’s JazzFest 

Zepplin, 

the H-man 

was a 

bonafide 

jazz fan. He 

grew up 

hearing 

New Orleans 

and 

Dixieland 

jazz. In 

fact, one of 

the first LP’s he ever 

owned featured jazz from 

Nawwwww-orleans. 

That’s why he was excited 

to hear jazz trumpet 

player Nicholas Payton 

would be the feature act at 

JazzFest 2008. He plays 

what’s called neo bop ... 

and is praised for his 

clear, ringing sound. He’s 

a Verve recording artist, 

who will be appearing at 

the New Orleans Jazz Festival 

the weekend before 

JazzFest. 

Payton’s a contemporary 

of another H’haid favorite, 

Wynton Marsalis, 

and studied with Wynton’s 

brother, Ellis 

Marsalis. 

So, Hammerhaid’s all 

ready to roll up at JazzFest 

and kick back. 

“I even bought a new 

lawn chair for the event. 

It’s already loaded in the 

trunk with anything else 

I might need. Now, I just 

have to fine-tune my dining 

schedule and everything 

will be 

five-by-five,” he said. 

“You will be five by 

five feet if you keep eating 

that buttered corn on 

the cob,” snorted Betty 

Lou. 

“I suppose you are 

swearing off the blooming 

onions then?” Hammerhaid 

inquired. 

“I didn’t say that, but I 

won’t be eating two or 

three of them and I will 

be sharing,” she said. 

Besides Payton, a num- 

ber of other great acts are 

scheduled, including the 

area high school jazz 

bands on Friday night. 

“Reminds me of my misspent 

youth as a band 

geek,” Hammerhaid said. 

“You never know 

whom you might see. 

Heck, I still have my hat 

autographed by Mario 

Andretti. JazzFest sponsorBridgestone/Firestone

it was fabulous.” 

“T-t-t-t-t-t-t-that’s r-r-rr-r-r-right,”

project at its 

location at 215 MTCS

“We have had tremendous 

growth over the last three 

years,” said Kevin Wax, 

who owns Wax Family 

Printing with his wife 

Rhonda. “We are just busting 

at the seams.” 

To accommodate a 45percent 

growth rate over the 

last three years, Wax Family 

Printing is increasing the 

square footage of the print 

shop by 150 percent. Construction 

began April 24 and 

is expected to be complete 

by October. 

But Wax said the decision 

to expand didn’t come easily. 

“It is a lot of money to expand 

at this day and time,” 

he said, adding that he wrestled 

with the decision for almost 

two years. 

Wax said the company has 

experienced double-digit 

sales increases for each of

based on early projections,

ness in 1997. 

Nevin had a full-time job 

working as the personnel 

manager at Sword of the 

Lord Publishers, but decided 

to moonlight by making 

plates and doing other 

specialized work for printers 

out of his home. 

The company remained in 

the Wax home until moving 

into its current location in 

1988. 

“The type-setting department 

was set up in my bedroom,” 

Kevin recalled. “I 

like to tell people I literally 

grew up in the business because 

I did.” 

Kevin initially had no intention 

of joining the family 

business. He worked as a 

school teacher and a retail 

store manager before finally 

asking to join the business 

full time in 1983. 

“I felt like he was providing 

a great service to the 

community, and I wanted to 

help,” he said. 

Nevin Wax said he is 

proud of what his son has 

accomplished with carrying 

on the family business. 

“He has done quite well,” 

he said. “He is a good businessman.” 

Kevin Wax renamed the 

company Wax Family Printing 

because it better reflected 

the services offered 

by the company, he said. 

“We have grown from a 

service to printers to a service 

for other businesses,” 

Wax said.

Wax Family Printing has 

continued to evolve over the 

years, updating its technology 

to stay competitive in 

the printing industry. 

“We take care of our customers,” 

Wax said of his 

company’s staying power. 

“We will do whatever it 

takes to meet customer 

needs.” 

Last year, Wax Family 

Printing added a digital 

press, traditional press and a 

wide-format printer to its 

shop. 

“Our quality is very 

good,” Wax said. “Our service 

is excellent. Our prices 

are fair.”

MidSouth Bank has 90

“When we started our

proving Moss’s philosophy 

right that if employees feel 

highly valued that they will 

take better care of their

What led you to become

and observing their activities 

in the building industry 

mixed with my 

attention to detail, design

the mark of quality

Football legend Jim Brown addresses community 

NFL legend Jim Brown addresses the student body at Oakland High School Thursday afternoon. Brown pitched Amer-I-Can to the state Legislature Thursday. 

NFL Hall of Famer talks to 

students, pitches Amer-I-Can 

By JOSH EZZELL 

Sports Editor 

Football legend Jim Brown is always 

looking to bring his Amer-I-Can program 

to new places. 

The program, which teaches life-man- 

agement skills to youth and prisoners, has 

been implemented in 16 states and the 

United Kingdom. Through associate 

Bobby Glanton Smith and Oakland 

teacher Pierre Lyons — both are 

Murfreesboro natives — Brown became 

familiar with the area and wanted to implement 

his program. 

Therefore, Brown made a four-day trip 

to Murfreesboro — he arrived last 

Wednesday and stayed through Saturday 

— and discussed his program with the 

state Legislature Thursday. That day he 

addressed the student body at Oakland 

High School, and on Saturday he was the 

guest speaker at the John Swafford Indoor 

Training Center dedication. 

“We’re trying to get the program in a lot 

of schools around the country,” said 

Brown, who was the NFL’s all-time leading 

rusher until Walter Payton broke his 

record in 1984. “I’m always interested in 

Riverdale track Page 26 

Sports in Brief Page 27 

getting it in new states.” 

TMP photo by Kelly Hite 

AMER-I-CAN IN MURFREESBORO? 

Many people are concerned about the 

rise of gangs in Murfreesboro, and Brown, 

having worked with the gang problem in 

California, is used to dealing with this 

issue. Therefore, it was ideal for him to 

come to Tennessee and pitch his program 

to the state Legislature.

Riverdale finds ‘strength in numbers’ 

Boys win 

ninth straight 

district title 

By JOSH EZZELL 

Sports Editor 

There certainly is strength 

in numbers for the Riverdale 

track team. 

The Warriors have made it 

a point to stockpile depth, and 

the result has been dominance 

in Middle Tennessee. 

Riverdale has won nine 

straight boys District 7-AAA 

track titles, and the girls won 

16 straight until Lebanon 

snapped the streak last Tuesday. 

This year Lebanon 

outscored Riverdale 177-146 

to end the Lady Warriors’ 

reign. 

“Numbers are really important,” 

said Riverdale 

coach Rickey Field, who’s 

been at the helm since 1990. 

“I learned that from (Tullahoma 

coach Clester Win- 

BROWN 

• continued from page 33 

“It’s about responsibility,” 

Oakland Principal 

Butch Vaughn said of 

what Amer-I-Can teaches 

youth. “He does Amer-I- 

Can a lot with prisoners. 

Violence and drugs are 

dead-end streets. 

“I’ve lived in Murfreesboro 

all of my life,” 

Vaughn added. “It’s a 

great place to live. If we 

don’t take some steps to 

eliminate gangs and help 

kids we could be in trouble. 

And what better investment 

than our kids?” 

According to Vaughn, 

it’ll cost $78,000 to implement 

the program at Patterson 

Park in 

Murfreesboro. 

“We need someone to 

step up and give us money 

for this,” Vaughn said. 

“We can’t wait a few years 

for this to get on the 

ningham). You’ve got to have 

lots of people if you’re going 

to win.” 

Riverdale has 44 athletes 

listed on the boys’ roster and 

32 on its girls’ roster. The 

boys have balance with 12 

seniors, 11 juniors, eight 

sophomores and 13 freshmen. 

The girls, conversely, 

are young with 18 freshmen, 

eight sophomores, two juniors 

and four seniors. 

“That’s what you want,” 

Field said of having a young 

team. “We try to get people 

out there.” 

The boys had at least one 

athlete in the top three in all 

but one event. Riverdale won 

four of the six field events 

and took second in the two it 

didn’t win — the shot put and 

long jump. The Warriors took 

the top three spots in the triple 

jump with Antonio Raye taking 

the event at 44 feet, followed 

by JaMarcus 

McSwain in second at 42-0 

and Marquis Morris in third 

at 41-10 ½. 

“Like Coach Field says — 

it’s depth,” senior T.J. Bell 

said. “We have three or four 

in every event. Sometimes 

you don’t win, but you get

He spoke to Oakland 

students about taking responsibility 

for their actions. 

He did, however, 

take a moment to make the 

audience laugh when he 

said old-timers like Al

Other gangsters, he 

claimed, are “wannabes.”

Since he was already in

“The community reaction

fifth gets four, sixth gets

eight gets one. 

“Most of the time teams get 

tired at the end,” said 

Riverdale senior Quen Smith, 

who won the shot put in the 

girls’ district event at 40-7 

and took second in discus at 

101-0. “We just don’t get as 

tired because we have more 

people.” 

The boys’ meet wasn’t even 

close. Riverdale won with 

254 points, while Lebanon 

was second at 153 points. 

“I didn’t realize how important 

depth is in track,” 

Bell said. “Coach Field always 

tells us about it.” 

Everyone else in the district 

would agree that depth 

is important.

Brown, however, says 

he’s just doing his part to

“It’s a journey,” Brown 

said. “It’s a never-ending

MURFREESBORO HALF MARATHON 

Registration for the second annual 

Murfreesboro Half Marathon (“The 

Middle Half”) presented by Middle Tennessee 

Medical Center begins May 1, 

2008. 

The 13.1-mile race is scheduled for 

Oct. 11 at 7 a.m. with a wheelchair 

start at 6:55 a.m. Because the course 

runs by the geographic center of Tennessee, 

begins and ends at MTSU and 

is presented by Middle Tennessee 

Medical Center, it has been tagged 

“The Middle Half”. 

Last year’s race sold out with 1000 

participants in only 34 days. Half of the 

participants were from Rutherford 

County with the remainder from counties 

all over Tennessee. Runners came 

from 16 states; an Oregon runner traveled 

the farthest to participate. 

“We’ve increased the limit to 2000 

runners and lowered the age limit to 

14,” said Natalie Tate, race director. 

“Last year we wanted to learn how to 

conduct a race on a smaller scale with 

fewer runners. We’re ready for more 

participants this year.” 

New features are being added for 

the 2008 race. 

“Anyone registering during the 

month of May will receive a five dollar 

“early bird” discount,” said Tate. “We 

want to have a cheering contest along 

the course, and we are also looking into 

having a kids’ Fun Run this year.” 

Runners may register online at 

www.TheMiddleHalf.com. Starting 

May 1, forms may be picked up at the 

following Murfreesboro locations: Fleet 

Feet Sports (Murfreesboro), WGNS, The 

Murfreesboro Post, Barfield Park, Patterson 

Community Center, Sports Com. 

The form may also be downloaded 

from TheMiddleHalf.com Web site. 

The proposed course goes down scenic 

tree-lined Main Street and Maney 

Avenue to Oaklands Historic House Museum. 

Runners will circle the Rutherford 

County Courthouse on the Square, 

pass by by MTSU’s Fraternity Row and 

the obelisk on Old Lascassas, and then 

finish on the MTSU track. 

The course will be certified, and the 

race is officially sanctioned by USATF. 

The estimated elevation variation is 

only 41 feet, making the course flat and 

fast for the runners. 

Charities will be using the race as 

fundraisers. Special Kids’ “Team A.S.K.” 

will have a training team, and 

Soles4Souls will be conducting a used 

shoe drive. 

“The Middle Half Marathon is a great 

event for our community,” said Mona 

Herring, vice president of the Convention 

and Visitors Bureau. “We have 

many local residents who run and it 

also brings in many runners from outside 

of our county. It is a wonderful way 

to showcase our historic downtown, 

Oaklands Historic House Museum and 

Middle Tennessee State University.” 

Best Times ChampionChip Tennessee, 

Inc. will be providing the timing 

system with electronic chips. When 

runners wearing electronic chips on 

their shoes pass over special mats 

along the course, their time is automatically 

recorded. 

Middle Tennessee Medical Center is 

the presenting sponsor of the event. 

The City of Murfreesboro, Murfreesboro 

Parks & Rec, Fleet Feet Sports, Middle 

Tennessee State University, SunTrust, 

State Farm, The WORX Group, and 

Emerson Heating Products are major 

sponsors. Murfreesboro Magazine, The 

Murfreesboro Post and WGNS are 

media sponsors of the race. 

Spectators along the course are encouraged 

to cheer on the runners with 

signs and music. Admission is free to 

the MTSU Track and Soccer field where 

the runners will cross the finish line.

Prepare to hand-jive 

with Grease May 1 

The Murfreesboro/Rutherford 

County Center for the Arts Youth 

Stages Series will present the original 

high school rock musical, 

“Grease!” beginning May 1. 

This specially adapted production 

makes the ’50s musical a family 

friendly trip down memory 

lane. 

The cast of 30 brings Rydell 

High’s spirited class of ’59 to life; 

gum-chewing, hubcap-stealing, hot 

rod-loving boys with D.A.’s and 

their wise-cracking girls in bobby 

sox and pedal pushers. 

While hip Danny Zuko and 

wholesome Sandy Dumbrowski resolve 

the problems of their mutual 

attraction, the gang sings and 

dances its way through such nostalgic 

scenes as the pajama party, the 

prom, the burger palace and the 

drive-in movie. 

First-time Murfreesboro director 

Christina Dallas Jones said, “We 

carefully took all the different versions 

of this show to create a new 

“Grease” experience. We drew from 

the original script, to the newly revived 

Broadway production, to the 

simplistic school edition for a mix 

that will bring “Grease” to life.” 

With an ensemble cast that spans 

hometowns across all of Tennessee, 

“Grease” is a showcase of talent and 

energy. Newcomer and power vocalist 

Katye Brock commands a presence 

as the lovable Sandy 

Dumbrowski against Carter Troutt 

in the role of Danny Zuko. Local favorites 

Kaylie Hackett and Spencer 

Ford portray the roles of Frenchy 

and Kenickie with energy and breath 

a new life into each character. 

“It has been such a rewarding experience 

to work with these young 

performers,” Jones said, “For many 

of them, this is their first theatrical 

production, and they have come 

such a long way!” 

Songs recall the Buddy Holly hiccups, 

the Little Richard yodels and 

the Elvis Presley wiggles that made 

the music of the ’50s a gas. 

“Grease’s” eight-year run made 

Broadway history and its current 

Broadway revival along with it hit 

TV reality show “You’re the One 

that I Want” has made this musical 

timeless. 

“Grease!” runs May 1-11 at the 

Murfreesboro Rutherford County 

Center for the Arts. Show times are 

7:30 p.m. Thursday through Sun-

New exhibit 

focuses on 

life ‘Beyond 

the Plantation’ 

By BLAIR DUNCAN 

Special to the Post 

Oaklands Historical 

House Museum has often 

been an important stop for 

those who travel the Civil 

War history trail, and thanks 

to a group of MTSU graduate 

students, its historical 

picture is now more complete. 

Since last August, public 

history students enrolled in 

Brenden Martin’s Museum 

Management class have 

worked to research and create 

a new exhibit for the 

museum, “Beyond the 

Plantation,” that will make 

its public debut at the historic 

house beginning May 

1. The new exhibit focuses 

on the lives of African 

Americans who lived as 

slaves and freedmen on and 

around the lands of the 

Oaklands plantation 

On May 1, Martin students 

who worked on the 

creation of “Beyond the 

Plantation” present a free 

and open program beginning 

at 7 p.m. that will describe 

the project. The 

exhibit’s opening celebration 

will be held 4:30-9 p.m. 

Light refreshments will be 

served and the public is encouraged 

to attend. 

“This project started almost 

three years ago when 

there was a meeting held to 

discuss the memorial where 

the slave cemetery is believed 

to be,” said Martin, 

associate professor of history. 

“There was never any 

money to fund the project, 

but it fortunately got Oaklands 

thinking about an exhibit.” 

Martin said the graduate- 

level students have been in-
