CCSS’ longest- tenured BUILDING A LEGACY employee retires

BY DONNA HARRIS [email protected]

The employee with the longest tenure in the Cartersville City School System is retiring. School Nutrition Director Tracey Morris decided about four months ago to officially hang up her apron April 30 after 26 years with the school system and 38 years in education overall. “I have debated for some time, but I turned my letter of resigna- tion in after Christmas break,” Morris, 60, said. “I have loved being a part of the Cartersville City family and mostly the school nutrition team, but after 38 years in education, you just know when it is time to say ‘See you all later.’” Superintendent Dr. Howard Hi- nesley, who also is retiring this year, said Morris did “an excellent job building and maintaining a strong program.” “During her years directing our food service program, she always made sure the cafeterias had a pleasing appearance; the program returned a profit; and our students and staff received nutritious meals,” he said. Morris’ co-workers honored her and wished her well at a reception Thursday afternoon at the central office, where she received a cash gift from the system.

House panel clears Trump campaign in Russia probe

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The Republican-led House intelligence committee on Friday released a lengthy report concluding it found no evidence that Donald Trump’s campaign colluded with Russia in the 2016 presidential campaign, a finding that drew praise from the president and rebuttals from Democrats. The report caps an investigation that began with the promise of bipartisanship but quickly transformed into an acrimonious battle between Democrats and Republicans over Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election and whether there were any connections with the Trump campaign. Trump quickly claimed vindication Friday morning on Twitter, writing, “Just Out: House Intelligence Committee Report released. ‘No evidence’ that the Trump Campaign ‘colluded, coordinated or conspired with Russia.’ Clinton Campaign paid for Opposition Re- search obtained from Russia- Wow! A total Witch Hunt! MUST END NOW!” But the committee’s Republicans didn’t let the Trump campaign completely off the hook. They specifically cited the Trump campaign for “poor judgment” in taking a June 2016 meeting in Trump Tower that was described in emails to Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., as part of a Russian government effort to aide his father’s presidential bid. The report also dubbed the campaign’s praise of WikiLeaks “objectionable.” “While the committee found no evidence that the Trump cam- Korean summit lays out a path to peace; short on details paign colluded, coordinated or conspired with the Russian government, the investigation did find poor judgment and THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ures on a nuclear standoff that has with a deep and bitter history of fled south in a hail of gunfire last ill-considered actions by the Trump and Clinton campaigns,” the GOYANG, South Korea — The captivated and terrified millions, acrimony grinning from ear to ear year, and where North Korean sol- House intelligence committee wrote. leaders of North and South Korea but it allowed the leaders to step after Kim walked over the border diers killed two U.S. soldiers with The report’s conclusion is fiercely opposed by committee De- vowed Friday to seek a nuclear- forward toward the possibility of to greet Moon, becoming the first axes in 1976. mocrats, who accused their Republican colleagues of playing “de- free peninsula and work toward a a cooperative future even as they leader of his nation to set foot on Standing next to Moon after the fense counsel” for the White House throughout the investigation. formal end to the Korean War this acknowledged a fraught past and southern soil since the Korean talks ended, Kim faced a wall of “Committee Republicans chose not to seriously investigate — year, though their historic summit the widespread skepticism that, War.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — U.S. stocks are mostly higher Friday as a wobbly week of trading nears its close. Amazon is climbing following a strong first quarter and other retailers are up as well. Weak results from Exxon Mobil are weighing on energy companies while big technology companies and defense contractors also take losses. Asian stocks rose following the landmark summit of the leaders from North and South Korea. KEEPING SCORE: The S&P 500 index gained 7 points, or 0.3 percent, to 2,674 as of 1:15 p.m. Eastern time. It rose as much as 10 points earlier, briefly turned lower and then changed course again. The Dow Jones industrial average added 26 points, or 0.1 percent, to 24,348. The Nasdaq composite rose 14 points, or 0.2 percent, to 7,133. The Russell 2000 index of smaller-company stocks was little changed at 1,557. Most of the stocks on the New York Stock Ex- change traded higher. The S&P 500 is up 0.2 percent this week. It dropped Tuesday as investors worried that rising costs and interest rates will hamper growth in corporate profits, but has slowly regained those losses. AMAZONIAN EARNINGS: Amazon said its first-quarter profit more than doubled as consumers shopped more online and revenue from its cloud computing business continued to rise. The results were far stronger than Wall Street expected and the stock jumped 47 percent to $1,588.47, adding to Thursday’s 4 percent gain. That put the stock close to all-time highs. Amazon also said it will hike the price of an annual Prime membership to $119 from $99 in the U.S. Amazon stock peaked in mid-March. It slumped over subsequent TED S.

Richter says he urges consumers to stay away from bagged lettuce and to always cut and wash their own produce. Online travel company Expedia rose 8.4 percent to $115.32 as investors applauded its first-quarter report. Athletic apparel maker Nike added 2.7 percent to $69.91 and rival Under Armour rose 7.6 percent to $18.20.

With Pickens’ pitching beginning to wear thin, Cartersville pounced for the kill shot in the fourth, tacking on six runs, high- lighted by Barnett’s RBI triple and Inaba and Wilkie’s RBI singles.

Possibly most encouraging was Warner’s 3-for-4 day with two doubles after the senior Auburn commit went through a slump late in the year. Wilkie also had a big series with a 3-for-5 showing. Possibly most im- pressive was Gooch, who went 3-for-6 with three RBIs in addition to his strong pitching.
