Yellowjackets out in the first round of state playoffs
Union football coach Jordan Wren said he thought if Franklin County ever got out to a second-half lead, they would be hard to catch. Wren was right as the Bulldogs scored late in the second, early in the third and pulled away to take a 48-29 win over the Yellowjackets in the first round of the Class 3A playoffs.

Churches in three parishes gear up for Operation Christmas Child
Somewhere overseas this winter, a child will lift the lid of a shoebox and find a soccer ball, a toothbrush and a note from a stranger in central Louisiana. That hope drives more than 80 churches across Catahoula, Concordia and LaSalle parishes as Operation Christmas Child’s National Collection Week arrives Nov. 16-23. Gift-filled shoeboxes can be dropped off at First Baptist churches in Jena, Tullos and Jonesville during set hours that week. The full schedule appears at the end of this story. The project, run by the international Christian relief organization Samaritan’s Purse, collects shoeboxes packed with toys, school supplies and hygiene items and delivers them to children in more than 175 countries and territories. For local organizers, each gift carries a larger purpose.
