12-year olds off to state

| 
In what seemed like the longest Dixie Youth regional in recent memory, the Yazoo City 12-year olds are headed to the state championships.
The five-day tournament in Grove Park, which was delayed due to rain on Saturday finally ended Wednesday night as the all-stars defeated Canton 5-4. The victory awarded them the number one seed in this weekend’s tournament. Head coach Mitchell Saxton commended his boys for staying in the fight after playing for nearly a week.

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.
