Batesville businessman and Finch-Henry Job Corps Center volunteer Rufus Manley (left) greets former U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young who visited the center last Friday while making several stops in Mississippi. Young was a close friend of Mississippi civil rights pioneer Dr. Aaron Henry, from whom, along with the late Mississippi Governor Cliff Finch of Batesville, the center takes its name. Young was the guest of honor at a luncheon prepared by the center’s culinary arts students. Afterward he spoke to the student body.
