CANTON – Yazoo City quickly shrugged off a second place finish in the Riverside tournament by taking out their frustrations in district play, downing Canton 9-3 on the road Tuesday night despite the absence of several regular starters.
The Indians, who never trailed in the ball game, scored a pair of runs in the top of the first inning for an early lead. Canton cut the deficit to one in the third as their defense kept the Indians quiet until the fifth inning stretching their lead 3-1.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
