AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL An offensive response After blowing big lead, P-15’s rally to top Pitt County 9-7 in Palmetto Invitational

BY DENNIS BRUNSON [email protected]

After having one of its best offensive innings of the season, the Sumter P-15's Ameri- can Legion baseball team saw Pitt County, North Carolina, Post 39 match it in its following at-bat. So what was a 6-1 Sumter lead after three innings in their game in the Pal- metto Invitational on Saturday at Riley Park, was a 7-6 Pitt ad- vantage before the P-15's got to hit again. While it didn't happen immediately, Sumter did respond. The P-15's scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 9-7 victory in the first of two games it was scheduled to play on Saturday. "You kind of hope this is the kind that can give you a jump- start," said Sumter head coach Curtis Johnson, whose squad took an 11-7 record into Satur- day's second game against Troy, Alabama. "I think this is one of our best offensive per- formances of the year.

Data show Americans haven’t learned from past

Pete the Planner Peter Dunn USA TODAY

The evolution of personal finance advice in the United States over the past 20 years has been nothing short of remarkable. While the late 1990s is better known as the era of the dot-com bubble, it was also known for a growing effort to get Americans to set more money aside for retirement. Pension plans had been on a steady decline since the mid-1970s, and a whole generation wasn’t pleased with the retirement income projections they were being shown. This led to more education about ways for people to save more money. While the relatively simple ap- proaches of the time weren’t wholly successful, they did manage to reset the responsibility for retirement from the employer to the employee. The early 2000s saw the rise of credit-card debt and all the trouble that created. Americans enjoyed the loose lend- The subprime mortgage has re-emerged because many Americans can’t remember 2006.

PERSONAL FINANCE Shrink or skip annoying travel fees Beware of charges involving your bags, cellphone and your money
