Alderman Aubry Brent Jr. said he would like to see some policy implemented to curtail sagging pants within the city.
After hearing numerous complaints about the city public schools, Brent said he feels the dress code issue is directly related to the lack of respect among some children and many adults.
Brent said he understands it might infringe on an individual’s right to express themselves through their clothing. But he said there must be a way to successfully word a policy.

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.
