PLANO (AP) J.C. Penney Co. Inc. will announce this week that it will close about 50 department stores as new management tries to repair the troubled retailer, officials said Tuesday. The Plano-based retailer also will announce it is shuttering an undisclosed number of Eckerd drugstores, a spokesman said. Penney has seen its market share slip for several years as it was outflanked by discounters and trendier retailers. Analysts say the company was slow to update its stores and suffered from poor marketing and stale merchandise. | |
sportsIt was apparent from the outset that the Temple Tem-Cats were up against an Ellison that was going to be very quick and very aggressive. Unfortunately, the Tem-Cats didn't adjust to that style of play until it was way too late. Ellison solidified its lead atop the District 13-5A girls' basketball standings with a 59-44 victory over the Tem-Cats on Tuesday night at Wildcat Gym. All 14 players on the Lady Eagles' roster got in the scoring column. "They are a little quicker and a little more physical than we are," said Tem-Cat coach Susan Brown, whose team slipped to 7-14 overall and 2-4 in district play. "I thought they were a little too aggressive in the first half, but we have to adjust to that. We did a better job of that in the second half. They are the quickest team we've faced." Ellison, which is now 21-3 for the year and 6-0 in league play, dictated the tempo from the start. The Lady Eagles, paced by Courtney Ridgle in the opening minutes, went on an 8-2 run in the final two minutes of the first quarter to take a 14-7 advantage. by Tim Waits
