PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Will Smith returned to his hometown to participate in a march against violence.

The actor and rapper said he wanted to do something about the violence in the city, which had 380 killings in 2005 and appears likely to top that number this year.

“We’re going to take this walk, hopefully draw a little attention to the problem and get some solutions,” Smith said Saturday as he walked with his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, in West Philadelphia, along with local officials and members of the community.

The level of violence last week prompted the Philadelphia Daily News to call for the National Guard to patrol city streets.

Gov. Ed Rendell gave Philadelphia a $7.5 million grant for 166,000 hours of police overtime to help deal with gun violence until state police free up 70 city officers by taking over highway patrols.

KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) – Singing a takeoff of Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison Blues” helped a Texas commercial property developer win an Ernest Hemingway look-alike contest during a festival honoring the author that ended Sunday.

Sporting a khaki hunting outfit, white beard and bushy eyebrows, Chris Storm, 55, hit Cash-like low notes as he sang a plea for contest judges’ votes during the highlight of the six-day Hemingway Days festival.

The competition drew 130 other bearded entrants who paraded across the stage at Sloppy Joe’s Bar, the author’s favorite watering hole.

A crowd cheered Saturday night as the judges, all past contest winners, pondered the 25 finalists’ resemblance to Hemingway.

Storm, a five-time competitor, credited his victory to the enthusiasm of his 35-member cheering section and his undeniably Hemingway-esque appearance.

“Hemingway was a very complex individual, but there are a lot of good parts about him I’d like to think I have,” said Storm, of Amarillo. “I’ve hunted and fished, I’ve been to Africa several times and I love to write.”

Storm co-wrote the lyrics to his Cash takeoff, and he has written short stories and published articles about hunting. His favorite Hemingway works are “The Old Man and the Sea” and “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber.”

Other Hemingway Days events included a marlin tournament, author readings, an offbeat “Running of the Bulls” and a short story competition directed by Hemingway’s granddaughter, author Lorian Hemingway.
