NMMI reaps $250K in state land sale proceeds

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The New Mexico State Land Office reported earnings of more than $2.8 million at its monthly oil and gas lease sale in Roswell on Tuesday.

All of the funding will go to beneficiaries of the land office, such as hospitals and public schools across the state, and New Mexico Military Institute, which will reap more than a quarter million dollars from Tuesday’s lease sale.

A total of 37 tracts of land, covering 7,887 acres

$16,000; a 160-acre sale to Federal Abstract Co. of Santa Fe for $2,500; and a 160-acre sale to Robert Hooper for $50,000.

In total, the Institute will receive $254,546 as a result of Tuesday’s land lease sale.

Commissioner Ray Powell of the New Mexico State Land Office said the Institute drew the lucky straw when beneficiaries of state lands were designated a century ago. Oil and gas lease sales provide revenue from oil and natural gas production on state trust lands for trust beneficiaries.

“By the luck of the draw, each beneficiary was

of state lands in Chaves, Eddy, Lea and Roosevelt counties, were sold Tuesday, at an average price of about $367 per acre.

Several of the tracts were designated for the New Mexico Military Institute, which is one of the land office’s beneficiaries.

The military institute was the beneficiary of a 320acre sale Tuesday to Yates Petroleum Corp. of Artesia for $43,926; a 160-acre sale to Turner Oil & Gas Properties of Oklahoma City for $129,120; an 80-acre sale to Yates Petroleum for $13,000; a 320-acre sale to Petroleum for Yates

assigned land at statehood,” Powell said. “They (NMMI) got the land, most of it down in the Permian Basin, before we knew there was oil and gas. The last time I checked, about 85 percent of their re-occurring revenue comes from these working lands. So this is a really significant amount of money.”

The Permian Basin is a 250-mile wide, 300-mile long sedimentary basin largely contained in west Texas and southeastern New Mexico. It is one of the See NMMI, Page A3

New Mexico Military Institute will receive $254,546 as a result of the State Land Office's land lease sale in Roswell this week. Leasing rights for 7,887 acres of state lands in Chaves, Eddy, Lea and Roosevelt counties were sold Tuesday for a total of $2,890,000.

Veteran health care becomes campaign issue

WASHINGTON (AP) — The growing furor over veterans’ health care moved to the political campaigns Thursday as congressional candidates from both parties called for Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki to be fired.

Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes, who is challenging Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky, was among those calling for Shinseki’s removal amid investigations of VA patients dying while awaiting treatment and falsified appointment records.

Democrat Rick Weiland, who is running for South Dakota’s open Senate seat, also called for Shinseki’s ouster, as did a Democrat running for an open House seat in New Jersey and two Republicans challenging vulnerable Democrats in northern Minnesota House districts.

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., added to the calls for Shinseki’s resignation, saying the

VA crisis was “a national that embarrassment” requires new leadership.

Shinseki, 71, said Thursday that he intends to remain on the job. “I serve at the pleasure of the president,” he told reporters at the Capitol. The former Army general and chief of staff added that “this is not the first time” he has faced controversy in his career.

Grimes, the Kentucky Senate candidate, said the government had defaulted on a “solemn obligation to our veterans. I don’t see how that breach of trust with our veterans can be repaired if the current leadership stays in place,” she said.

Grimes has tried to distance herself at times from President Barack Obama, who is largely unpopular in her state, and she demonstrated her independence by calling for a Cabinet member’s removal.

McConnell said earlier this week that the predica-

STAFF REPORT

SANTA FE (AP) — Carlsbad and other oil patch communities in southeastern New Mexico are the fastest growing in the state, the Census Bureau reported Thursday.

According to the agency’s latest estimates, the population of Carlsbad increased about 3.4 percent, to 27,653 people, from mid-2012 in July 2013.

Nearby Hobbs was close behind with growth of 3.1 percent.

The six fastest-growing communities were in Lea and Eddy counties in the oil-rich Permian Basin of southeastern New Mexico, which has experienced a boom in energy production because of advances in drilling technologies.

Carlsbad Mayor Dale Janway said the oil industry is drawing workers to the area, but that potash mining, tourism and agriculture also are helping fuel the city’s economy.

“It was just growing so fast that housing couldn’t keep up. They’re building as fast as they can,” Janway said in a telephone interview.

Near the community are Carlsbad Caverns National Park and the Waste

Isolation Pilot Plant, the federal government’s underground nuclear waste dump.

The Census Bureau released population estimates for about 100 large and small incorporated places in New Mexico.

Janway and Carlsbad City Administrator Steve McCutcheon took issue with the Census Bureau’s population figure for the city, saying they believe the population much larger than 27,653 based on increases in water

meters, water usage and other local data.

“How big the number is, you know, is debatable,” McCutcheon said, “but that it is growing significantly is not.

We agree with the census people on that.”

Rounding out the 10 communities with the largest rates of population growth are Jal, 2.8 percent; Tatum, Eunice and Lovington, each at 2.7 percent; Sunland Park, 2.3 percent; Rio Rancho, 1.3 percent; and Red River and Hope, 1 percent.

Here are the July 2013 population estimates and growth rates over 2012 for the state’s largest cities: — Albuquerque, 556,495, 0.3 percent.

— Las Cruces, 101,324, 0.3 percent.

— Rio Rancho, 91,956, 1.3 percent.

— Santa Fe, 69,976, 0.9 percent.

— Roswell, 48,611, 0.2 percent.

— Farmington, 45,426, -1 percent.

— Clovis, 39,508, 0 percent.

The Walker Aviation Museum Foundation recently hosted two tours, one for third-grade students from Monterrey Elementary School, and another for fifth-grade students from Pecos Elementary School. The fifth-graders visited not only the museum and AerSale, but also toured the aviation program at Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell and the air base’s fire department. The educational mission of the museum is to ignite interest in aviation, math, science, engineering and history.

STATE BRIEFS

Severe storm, hail strike northern New Mexico

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Severe weather and large hail caused multiple car wrecks in northern New Mexico on Thursday, as a storm system began its path through the state and is expected to linger through Memorial Day weekend.

The National Weather Service said the hail struck Las Vegas, New Mexico, and snarled traffic along Interstate 25, forcing authorities to temporarily close part of the highway.

No injuries were reported.

Meanwhile, eastern New Mexico, especially around Clovis, remained under a slight risk for severe storms thanks to a system that reportedly brought quarter-size hail and damaging 60 mph winds.

In addition, the Sandia, Manzano and Sangre de Cristo mountain chains in central New Mexico were expected to experience scattered thunderstorms.

Sporadic thunderstor ms are expected to continue Friday, and

officials fear that means droughtstricken areas may get lightning that could spark wildfires.

New Mexico has experienced record-setting fire seasons during two of the last three years, and land managers are worried this summer could set another record given the dry conditions. The state has been battered by drought and persistently high fire danger in recent years.

The human-caused Signal Fire, burning in southwestern New Mexico and the state’s largest current fire, is 90 percent contained as of Thursday, officials said. It started burning in grass and timber about 10 miles north of Silver City on May 11.

The severe weather is expected to continue Saturday afternoon and evening, with possible hail along the central mountain chain, forecasters said.

BELEN (AP) — A World War II veteran in New Mexico finally did some-

Silva’s great-granddaughter also graduated with him Tuesday night.

WWII vet graduates from high school 71 years later

KRQE-TV reports that 90-year-old Belen resident Luis Silva received his diploma this week 71 years after he was drafted and left school.

The Roswell Public Library Board of Trustees met Thursday to set a new slate of officers for the coming year.

Marna Hunt was re-elected president of the board, while Magil Duran was named vice president.

Linda Madrid was chosen board secretary.

The two new board members, Michelle Hembree and Randy “Lewie” Montgomery, also were treated to a board orientation program, which reviewed the history and present activities of the Roswell Public Library.

The library began in 1906, before New Mexico was even a state, said Library Director Betty Long. The Roswell Women’s Club was responsible for getting the Car negie Library built, although Andrew Car negie, steel industry magnate and philanthropist, wouldn’t personally work with women.

The library is one of only three Carnegie libraries in New Mexico — the other

two libraries being in Raton and Las Vegas.

“The library is a city department, and the director of the library is a department head,” Long said. The library has a $1.6 million budget for 2014 and has 19 full-time employees and seven parttime employees.

The library is also open seven days a week for 64 hours each week.

“If you combine my experience, our staff has 260 years of library experience,” Long said.

Two of the vital aspects of the library are the support organizations, which are the Roswell Public Library Foundation and the Friends of the Library, Long said.

“I don’t think the public knows how important these two organizations are to the library,” she said.

Long said the library staff is gearing up for the summer programs for children and adults.

“We’re getting ready, and we’re going to be busy,” Long said. “But we also always have fun.”

Silva, who landed at Omaha Beach on D-Day, says he dreamt of going back to school and getting his diploma but never got around to it. Officials say he earned the credits to graduate before the war.

After the war, Silva returned to Belen, got married, raised four children and proudly watched as his children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren graduated high school.

This year, Silva’s daughter, Lora Marez, said Belen High School’s principal was happy to make the dream come true.

world’s thickest deposits of rocks from the Permian geologic period and has large deposits of oil and natural gas. The basin is also a major source of potash and sylvite.

Thirteen buyers registered for Tuesday’s sale at the Daniels Leadership Center at NMMI. Both five-year oral and sealed bids were submitted.

The highest sealed bid was $563,000 from landman Douglas W. Ferguson, of Midland, Texas, for 322 acres, about 12.6 miles southwest of Carlsbad.

New Mexico’s public schools are the beneficiar-

Tamara Fresquez of Healthy Kids New Mexico and Shellea Owens of the New Mexico Health Department, and principal Jennifer Bolanos were on hand to present the awards to the children.

One Nancy Lopez thirdgrader, Remi Villa, was also the winner of a new bicycle.

Altogether, 17 children at Nancy Lopez Elementary were awarded medals for completing the mayor’s fitness challenge, and 23 children received certificates for participating in the program.

“Former Mayor Del Jurney started the Mayor’s Challenge three years ago,” Camp said, “and Mayor Dennis Kintigh has said he will continue to support the program.”

Students from all 12 of Roswell’s elementary schools participate in the Healthy Kids program each year, but Nancy Lopez Elementary had the most students participate and complete the program this year.

ies of that sale.

The highest oral bid was $680,000 from Nearburg Exploration Co., of Dallas, for 252 acres in Eddy County, about 23 miles southwest of Loving. The state’s public schools are also the beneficiaries of that land sale.

The state land office is responsible for administering 9 million acres of surface and 13 million acres of subsur face lands for beneficiaries of the state land trust, which include schools, universities, hospitals and other public institutions in the state.

By leasing state trust land for a wide array of uses, the land office generates hundreds of millions of dollars annually to support the beneficiaries.

“In the last three years,

medals for completing the program were Jared Calderon, Veronica Bonilla, Kaitlynn Madrid, Jayla Ortiz, Adriana Gonzalez Chairez, Remi Villa, Ever Lujan, Jose Rivera, Santiago Mendoza, Alesia Orozco, Sparkle Martinez, Alexa Ceballos, Alondra Huerta, Zahira Romero, Areli Aguirre, Nehemiah Perez and Jose Velasques Medrano.

Receiving certificates for participating in the challenge were Myranda Martinez, Analeya Marin, Daniel Quintero, Isaiah Olivas, Alexis Willis, Ashlyn Hess, Justale Lucero, Kaitlyn Weber, Angel Pena, Richard Madrid, Adonica Vasquez, Mya Perreira, Matthew Lewis, Joseph Bussey, Claudia Young, Miguel Murrillo, Moses Morales, Ruby Pena, Yvonne Carrasco, Aaron Alcaraz, Gennie Lucero, David Calvillo and Deanna Hernandez-Garcia.

A project of the New Mexico Department of Health and state and local part-

those lands have generated over $2 billion,” said Powell, who attended Tuesday’s sale. “The $2 billion over the last three years translates into about $2,500 per working family in New Mexico that they haven’t had to pay in taxes over the last three years.

The last three years have been the most productive in the history of the land office. Every division in our office is producing at a higher level. This year should be, for the first time ever, we’ll have an $800 million year. That’s about $164 million more than we’ve ever generated before.”

All 37 tracts up for sale were sold Tuesday for a total of $2,890,000, said Greg Bloom, assistant commissioner for mineral

ners, Healthy Kids New Mexico creates healthy environments and programs to give kids what they need to play well, eat well, learn well, and live healthy and full lives, according to the website, healthykidsnm.org.

“The state received a $5 million grant in 2011 and Chaves County was one of the counties chosen to participate in the program,” Camp said.

Healthy eating and physical activity are two lifestyle choices that prevent obesity and subsequent chronic disease.

During the 5-2-1-O Challenge, the third-graders dedicated 21 days to eating five or more fruits and vegetables a day, they trimmed their screen time to two hours, they were active for at least one hour a day, and they drank lots of water (the “O” in H2O) every day, Camp said.

The goal of Healthy Kids New Mexico is to provide teachers, parents, community leaders and policymak-

resources at the land office. Bloom said each tract sold for at least the minimum acceptable bid.

A total of 2,360 acres in Chaves County were sold for $177,000.

“So that’s almost four square miles of oil and gas leasing,” Bloom said.

The land office holds state land sales every month, auctioning the rights to state lands across the state.

“It’s almost always southeastern New Mexico tracts,” Bloom said. “We do this one lease sale in Roswell every year in conjuction with the New Mexico Landmen’s Association holding their annual conference at the military institute.”

State trust land is located in 32 of New Mexico’s

ers with infor mation, resources and activities here to help New Mexico's children grow up healthy.

“We want to not only get the kids to eat and be more healthy, but we want them to also show their parents a way to be healthy as well,” Camp said.

The goal of Healthy Kids is to reduce the trend of overweight and obese children by shaping and nurturing the children’s healthy eating and active living habits, as well as creating and sustaining healthy environments, and promoting positive health policies.

“What these kids did is hard to do,” Camp said.

“That is why we also wanted to recognize the kids who participated, even if they didn’t complete the 21-day challenge. They did a really good job.”

latter act allowed New Mexico’s admission to the United States upon voter approval of the state constitution.

33 counties, including Chaves County, with each acre of land designated to a specific beneficiary.

“Each piece of land is designated for a specific beneficiary, so whatever is earned on that land goes to that beneficiary,” Powell said. “Each May, we make it a point to come down in Roswell and it gives our folks who work in oil and gas a chance to actually connect with the voices that are usually coming over the phone. A lot of Roswell was state trust land and still we own the mineral estate, but they sold the surface off in the 1960s and ’70s.”

Trust lands were granted to New Mexico by Congress under the Ferguson Act of 1898 and the Enabling Act of 1910. The

Revenue generated from the extraction of oil and gas, from mining, the sale of land, and any other activity that depletes the resource is placed in the Land Grant Permanent Fund, which is invested for the beneficiaries.

Revenues from activities such as grazing, rights of way, and commercial activities that do not permanently deplete the resource are distributed through the Land Maintenance Fund to the designated beneficiaries after the land office covers its own expenses.

Boehner talks a good game on immigration reform

Speaker John Boehner talks a good game about pushing immigration reform. He told a recent fundraiser in Las Vegas that he was “hell-bent on getting this done this year,” reports the Wall Street Journal. And back home in Cincinnati, he even mocked his fellow House Republicans for failing to confront the issue.

“Here’s the attitude,” the speaker told a Rotary Club meeting, screwing up his face in a look of distaste. “’Ohhh, don’t make me do this. Ohhh, this is too hard.’”

“We get elected to make choices,” Boehner added. “We get elected to solve problems, and it’s remarkable to me how many of my colleagues just don’t want to. ... They’ll take the path of least resistance.”

It’s time for Boehner to follow his own advice. Yes, passing an immigration overhaul will be difficult. Yes, several dozen members of his own caucus adamantly

oppose the whole idea and even threaten to depose the speaker if he forces them to vote.

But Boehner said it best: Governing is about making choices, about solving problems. And a badly broken system — 11 million immigrants living here without papers, while industries from agriculture to high-tech plead for more workers — is a problem that demands a solution. And soon.

It’s been almost a year since the Senate passed a comprehensive reform package with bipartisan support, and as President Obama recently noted, only a

Roswell Daily Record

“very narrow window” is left this year for legislative action. “The closer we get to the midterm elections, the harder it is to get things done around here.”

Actually, the president was understating the urgency. If this Congress fails to act, the next one would have to start all over in January. And since conservative Republicans will probably have more power after the elections, Sen. Charles Schumer of New York is right in saying that if immigration fails this summer, “it will not pass until 2017 at the earliest.”

That would be a crime — a far more serious crime than the one committed by immigrants who crossed the border illegally in search of a better life for their families.

There are at least three reasons why Boehner should make the right choice by allowing the House to vote on a reform package. The first is morality.

Boehner is a serious Catholic, and his church’s teaching is very clear on the matter. As the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has officially stated, “Immigration policy that allows people to live here and contribute to society for years but refuses to offer them the opportunity to achieve legal status does not serve the common good. The presence of millions of people living without easy access to basic human rights and necessities is a great injustice.”

Then there’s economics. The myth perpetrated by opponents of immigration -- that newcomers take jobs from Americans -- is totally wrong. Immigrants create jobs, pay taxes and contribute enormously to the entrepreneurial spirit that conservatives profess to value so highly.

A leading Republican economist, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, estimates that an immigration reform bill would boost the national growth rate by close to a full per-

centage point per year over 10 years and reduce the deficit by nearly $3 trillion.

That’s why Jay Timmons, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, says that supporting reform “is a unified position of the business community.”

That’s why Larry Kudlow, an economic adviser to President Reagan, writes that “Pro-growth immigration reform will strengthen the shaky economy.”

If morality and economics are not enough, there’s always political self-interest. When Reagan was elected in 1980, the voting population was 88 percent white; by 2016, that rate will drop below 70 percent. Obama won more than seven out of 10 Hispanic and Asian votes in 2012, and smart Republicans know that their party’s future depends on reversing that trend.

Politicians are hereby put on notice: Speaking without a government-issued license could lead to fines and imprisonment — if you are a Washington, D.C., tour guide, that is. In Edwards v. District of Columbia, the owners and operators of a D.C. guided tour company are challenging a District licensing scheme that requires tour guides pass a test “covering the applicant’s knowledge of public buildings and points of historical and general interest in and about the District,” undergo a background check and pay $200 in application, license and exam fees.

Tonia Edwards and husband Bill Main own Segs in the City and offer guided city tours on the two-wheeled, self-balancing Segway scooters. But they face $300 fines and up to three months in jail if they continue operating without a license. Because, heaven forbid, one should spread disinformation in Washington, D.C. Imagine if this law was applied to politicians.

It is bad enough that occupational licensing laws like this protect established businesses from competition, leading to higher prices, less consumer choice and fewer job opportunities. But because of the nature of the job in question, the D.C. tour guide licensing requirement adds insult to injury by violating not only the business owners’ economic liberty but also their freedom of speech.

Such government intrusions on the right to earn an honest living in a totally legal occupation have grown rapidly over the past several decades. The number of occupations requiring a government license has risen from about one in 20 to nearly one in three during the past 60 or so years.

Fortunately, the D.C. licensing law got a rather frosty reception this month during oral arguments before a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Let us hope the court will strike a blow for freedom by striking down this inane licensing scheme.

REPRINTED FROM THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

LETTERS

Dear Editor, After weeks of baseless allegations, I feel compelled to reply to the various letters and charges made by Bobby Arnett, his family and his supporters.

My husband, Keith Bell, was briefly married to Bobby Arnett’s sister. The marriage occurred over six years ago. They were married three months and they only lived together one week in the marital home.

The allegation by Mr. Arnett and his supporters that Keith is motivated by a personal vendetta is simply untrue.

Keith’s cartoon depicting Mr. Arnett in his Boy Scout uniform was a fair commentary based upon the qualifications and statements of the candidates. Keith and I are happily married and have two children together (who you can occasionally see in the cartoons). Keith bears no resentment toward Mr. Arnett or his family because of his brief marriage to Mr. Arnett’s sister.

Let’s get back to the real issue at hand.

Judge K.C. Rogers is far and above the best-qualified candidate for the position of Magistrate Court Judge. Even Arnett’s own supporters and parents admit that Judge Rogers is well qualified (see their previous letters to the RDR). I personally appear before Judge Rogers and Judge Halvorson every week as an attorney for the public defender. I can tell the voters that K.C. Rogers is an excellent and fair judge. The allegations that his law enforcement background should be counted against Judge Rogers are frivolous. Judge Rogers is just as fair to my clients as he is to the state’s attorney.

Who owns our kids? The parents or government?

On Valentine’s Day 2013, the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families took into emergency custody then-14-year-old Justina Pelletier because the doctors at Tufts Medical Center and doctors at Boston Children’s Hospital collided over the diagnosis of her rare medical condition.

But when medical egos and battles lead to a child’s being tor n from her parents by judges ruling on dubious grounds, isn’t it time to confess that something is seriously askew in society and even under the stethoscope?

Fox News recently summarized the 15-month custody catastrophe by explaining that Tufts was originally treating Justina for a rare mitochondrial disease affecting cellular energy production. When gastrointestinal problems complicated her ailments, Tufts’ doctors referred her to Boston Children’s Hospital. But those doctors diagnosed her instead

CHUCK NORRIS

SYNDICATED COLUMNIST

with somatoform disorder — a psychological condition that has no known physical origin.

Justina’s parents immediately rejected the new psychiatric diagnosis and let their grievances be known to the Boston Children’s Hospital personnel. But rather than console and work with the parents, the staff called in the state, which in turn accused the parents of medical child abuse.

Justina was held captive for nearly a year in a psychiatric ward for children before being transported to a Wayside Youth & Family Support Network facility. In March, a juvenile court judge reprimanded the parents for verbal assault

and abuse.

But Justina’s parents cried foul, claiming the judge ignored Tufts’ standing medical testimony that their daughter’s diagnosis was in fact mitochondrial disease.

Fox News further reported this past week that after being held for 15 months by the commonwealth of Massachusetts, Justina was moved to a facility in her own state of Connecticut. Ironically, that transfer came a day after her family was denied a visit with her in the previous facility on Mother’s Day. Justina’s father told Fox News that the new facility is “only 15 minutes closer” than the Massachusetts complex and that it was “just a lateral move.” Her parents went on to say the move was “not at all meant as a step toward regaining custody,” which a judge will ultimately decide.

They called the whole hospital-state fiasco with their child “barbaric.”

Since the whole custody tragedy began, Justina’s parents have been granted only hourly visits each week. And throughout it all, Justina has not attended school or church and, most heartbreaking of all, has been kept from the security, safety and loving war mth of her own family, home and bed. Is it any wonder why her condition continues to deteriorate?

All Justina’s parents want now is for the commonwealth of Massachusetts to allow their beloved child to finally come home and celebrate her 16th birthday on May 24. Isn’t that the least that state officials could do, especially after all the family has been through?

My friend Mike Huckabee stated it well back in March: “What a shame when the government thinks that it knows better (how) to take care of the medical treatment of the

DEAR DOCTOR K: You’ve written about “superfoods” that deliver a lot of nutritional bang for their buck. Do you have a list of superfoods for heart health?

DEAR READER: Many foods — from the everyday to the exotic — are rich in nutrients that help keep heart disease at bay. That’s good news, and it’s been documented in many scientific studies.

My colleagues in nutrition science at the Harvard School of Public Health and Harvard Medical School have published the following list of heart-healthy super foods.

And I would add that there is something equally wrong when a situation such as this prompts millions of other parents across the country to become paranoid about taking their child to the hospital for fear that a misdiagnosis could lead to the child’s abduction by the state.

If you think the federal gover nment will never tell you what to do with your child’s health care, remember that the Affordable Care Act provides (via grants to states) for home visitation programs by government agents to educate parents on child behavior and parenting skills.

Imagine how that health care provision might play out as state officials walk into your home invoking their values and beliefs upon your parenting and children.

Government needs less of a role in running our families and more of a role in supporting parents’ decisions for their children. Children belong to their parents, not to the gover nment.

Man extradited from El Salvador to face murder, other charges

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Authorities in New Mexico say a 30-year -old Salvadoran man has been extradited to the United States to face murder and other charges in two 2009 armed robberies in Albuquerque.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for New Mexico says 30-year-old Francisco MelgarCabrera was among several men indicted in the June 2009 restaurant robberies, including one in which a cook, Stephanie Anderson, was killed.

Prosecutors said three other men are serving prison sentences after pleading guilty in the case.

The lawyer appointed to represent Melgar-Cabrera, B.J. Crow, said his client appeared in court Thursday and pleaded not guilty.

Crews foresee some containment of Arizona wildfire KACHINA VILLAGE, Ariz. (AP) — Hundreds of firefighters worked Thursday to protect communities on the edge of Flagstaff from a wildfire that is chewing up a scenic Arizona canyon with towering flames and burning entire trees down to nothing but ash.

The human-caused Slide Fire started Tuesday and had bur ned more than 11 1/2 square miles in and around Oak Creek Canyon, a scenic recreation area along a highway between Sedona and Flagstaf f that nor mally would be teeming with tourists as the Memorial Day weekend approaches.

There were no reports so far of injuries or structures burned, although the fire grew tenfold from Wednesday and from 7 1/2 square miles earlier Thursday.

OBITUARIES

Shirley Hubbard Calkins

Services are scheduled for 1 p.m., Friday, May 23, 2014, at LaGrone Funeral Chapel for Shirley Gail Calkins, 65, of Roswell, NM, who passed away on Monday May 19, 2014, in Lubbock, TX, at University Medical Center.

Shirley was born on June 10, 1948, in Roswell, NM, to Max and Betty Hubbard.

In 1980, she was blessed with her twin boys, Bryan and R yan, and in 1984, she had her third bundle of joy, Jeremy. Shirley has been a lifelong resident of Roswell. She was a seamstress for many years and homemaker for most of her adult life. Shirley’s pride and joy were her three boys and four precious grandbabies. She was by far the greatest mother, mother-inlaw, grandma, sister, sister -in-law, aunt, and cousin. She was loved dearly by all that knew her and she always wore an infectious smile upon her face through the good times and bad. Shirley was the youngest of sixteen children, and as the baby she grew up with most of her 49 nieces and nephews which were some of her best friends and shopping buddies. If you ever went on a shopping adventure with her and some of her nieces you better get you some Band-Aids while you were there cause you were gonna need them the next day for all the blisters.

Needless to say she was a very special lady to us all and will be missed dearly.

Shirley is survived by her three sons. Bryan Calkins and wife Jinny Calkins, R yan Calkins, Jeremy Calkins and wife Krystal Calkins, all of Roswell. She also has four precious grandbabies, Luke Riley (7), Breanna Nicole (5), Amythest Summer (1) and Tanner James (8 months).

Four sisters, Wilma Dean Crosby and husband Ross of Shawnee, OK., Norma Lou Pharis and husband Jimmy of Roswell, Arlene King of Tyler, TX., Karlin Parkhill and husband Jimmy of Roswell.

Shirley was preceded in death by her parents Max and Betty Hubbard. Six

was expected to be announced by Friday morning, but he added, “We are not out of the woods yet.”

The fire still was 3 to 3 1/2 miles away from the residential areas of Forest Highlands and Katina Village, where 3,200 residents remained under preevacuation warnings.

Officials were mindful of the fire’s dangers, as they looked at giant flames shooting up the walls of the canyon and saw how hot the fire was burning in the tinder -dry drought conditions.

“The fuels are just so dry, entire trees are turning to ash,” said Dick Fleishman, a spokesman for fire managers.

A primary focus of firefighting efforts will be to pinch off the fire where it has reached the top of the canyon’s northeast corner to keep it from burning northward toward residential areas, he said.

Sciacca said 500 firefighters were assigned to

brothers, Elton Eugene “Gene” Hubbard. Dee “Boots” Hubbard, Jim Holmes “JH” Hubbard, Havard Dee Hubbard, Roland Floyd Hubbard, and Nolan Boyd Hubbard. Five sisters. Mary Louise Hyatt, Flora Daniel, RuJoyce Cunningham, Aileen Brown, and Dorothy Christine Hubbard. Two nephews.

William Crosby and Stanley Cunningham. Two nieces.

Kathy Long and Sharron Hyatt.

Pallbearers will be her three loving sons Bryan Calkins, Ryan Calkins, and Jeremy Calkins, her precious grandson Luke Calkins, and three of her dear nephews Roger Daniel, Ed Pharis and Gene Hubbard.

Honorary pallbearers will be all of her special loving nephews, who were so near and dear to her heart.

No Tears Past The Gate Someone new has entered our eternal home above the heavenly gate has opened wide to welcome one you love we cannot help the tears that fall our hearts need time to grieve when earthly life has ended and a loved one has to leave yet even in the saddest time we know our Savior lives and we can trust completely In the promise that He gives that in a glad reunion with the Lord our loved ones wait to welcome us in joy with No more tears beyond the gate!

the fire Thursday, with an additional 200 personnel expected later in the day as more crews and engines arrive.

Firefighters are also taking extra steps to make sure they don’t lose communication with crews in the steep canyons. They brought in “repeaters” that look like 20-foot-tall antennas and placed them on overlooks to maintain radio contact with firefighters below. Radio communication issues were a problem last year in a fire in nearby Prescott that killed 19 firefighters who were part of a Hotshot crew.

“If the fire makes any unfavorable movement, we know about it and I can alert them,” said firefighter Rich Sack of the Carson Hotshots in Taos, New Mexico, as he held a radio and intently kept an eye on the fire.

Bubba is survived by his fiancé, Teresa Williams of Roswell, New Mexico; his children, Todd and Jennifer Long of Amarillo, Texas, and Cary and Tinker Long of North Richland Hills, Texas; a sister, Sheryl Snead of Ruidoso, New Mexico.

US PROPOSES CHANGES TO TRIBAL RECOGNITION RULES HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — The U.S. Interior Department on Thursday announced proposed changes to the rules for granting federal recognition to American Indian tribes, revisions that could make it easier for some groups to achieve status that brings increased benefits as well as opportunities for commercial development.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs says it overhauled the rules to make tribal acknowledgment more transparent and efficient.

The changes include a new requirement that tribes demonstrate political authority since 1934, where they previously had to show continuity from “historical times.” That change was first proposed in a draft last June and stirred criticism that the standards for recognition were being watered down.

Kevin Washburn, an assistant secretary with Indian Affairs, said the rules are no less rigorous.

He said 1934 was chosen as a dividing line because that was the year Congress

accepted the existence of tribes as political entities.

“The proposed rule would slightly modify criteria to make it more consistent with the way we’ve been applying the criteria in the past,” Washburn said in an interview.

Gerald Gray, chairman of Montana’s Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians, said the changes offer the path to recognition that his people have sought for decades.

The landless tribe of about 4,500 members has been recognized by the state of Montana since 2000, but its bid for federal recognition was rejected in 2009 partly because the tribe could not document continuity through the early part of the 20th century. Gray said that denial illustrated how the process is broken.

“For a lot of the Plains tribes, and Indians in the country as a whole, there’s oral history but not a lot of written history,” Gray said.

“But we can prove our existence as a tribal entity and having a tribal government back to (1934).”

Leary gives new equipment to Detroit firefighters

DETROIT (AP) — Denis Leary, a longtime supporter of firefighters and the star of an acclaimed TV show in which he played one, was in Detroit Thursday to present $260,000 worth of equipment to the bankrupt city’s fire department.

The new gear was paid for by proceeds from “Burn,” a documentary film about the

city’s firefighters that Leary executive-produced.

Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and Fire Commissioner Edsel Jenkins accepted the donation, which included carbon monoxide detectors and thermal imaging cameras and was made through the Leary Firefighters Foundation.

“Each time we are blessed with the ability to donate funds which will help the brave and courageous firefighters of this country, we do so with gratitude and admiration,” said Leary, known for his starring role on “Rescue Me,” which focused on New York City firefighters. “Every dollar makes a difference.”

Leary was hosting a screening of “Burn” later in the day at The Fillmore Detroit. It has screened in 170 cities.

Man guilty of killing, dismembering ‘Shield’ actor Jace charged with murder Las Vegas dancer ex-girlfriend after wife shot LAS VEGAS (AP) — A Nevada jury found a former Las Vegas Strip performer guilty of seconddegree murder on Thursday for killing and dismembering his dancer exgirlfriend in a closely watched case that offered a lurid glimpse behind the curtains of the Sin City stage community.

Jason Omar Griffith sat motionless as the verdict was read in Clark County District Court. His defense attorney, Jeff Banks, reached to him and placed his arm around Griffith’s shoulders.

He could face 10 years to life in prison, or a definite 10 to 25 years. He could have faced up to life in prison if he had been convicted of first-degree murder. Griffiths will be sentenced July 23.

The jury of seven men and five women deliberated for about 14 hours over two days after hearing nine days of testimony about the strangulation death of Deborah Flores Narvaez during a Dec. 12, 2010, argument at Griffith’s home.

Her disappearance drew intense attention for almost a month before Griffith’s housemate, Louis Colombo, led police to her dismembered remains in tubs of concrete in a vacant downtown house.

The trial was a tale of sex, lies, betrayal and violence between two passionate and ambitious Las Vegas Strip dancers.

Griffith spent four days testifying that Flores’ death was self-defense. He said he grabbed her from behind with his arms around her neck when he thought she was reaching for a purse that may have contained a gun. No weapon was found. He said he panicked afterward and asked Colombo to help dispose of the body.

Prosecutors derided Griffith’s self-defense claim as a fabrication.

“The problem for Mr. Griffith is that he can’t tell you the truth,” prosecutor Marc DiGiacomo told jurors late Tuesday, “because there’s no truth that gets him out of firstdegree murder.”

Griffith, 35, is originally from Brooklyn, New York.

He went by the name “Blu” as a performer in the Cirque du Soleil show “Love,” based on Beatles music at The Mirage resort.

He testified that he juggled girlfriends and sexual acquaintances before and after he met Flores at a football halftime show in November 2009.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Actor Michael Jace, who played a police officer in the TV series “The Shield,” was charged with murder on Thursday in the shooting death of his wife in their Los Angeles home.

Jace, 51, appeared in court briefly and spoke just once to confirm that he wanted his arraignment delayed until a June 18 hearing.

Bail was set at $2 million. If convicted, the actor could face 50 years to life in state prison.

April Jace, 40, was shot multiple times and found dead Monday in a hallway of the family home in the modest Hyde Park neighborhood.

The couple’s two sons, both under 10, were in the house during the attack, but police said it was unclear if they had seen the attack. They have been placed with relatives.

Defense attorney Jason O. Sias declined to comment on specifics regarding the allegations against Jace but said the actor was thinking of his children.

Detectives were investigating whether the couple’s financial problems or other marital difficulties played a role in the killing that police said occurred during an argument.

Jace called the emergency dispatcher, said he’d shot his wife and was at the home when officers arrived, police Detective Dean Vinluan has said.

Vinluan said there had been no reports of domestic violence at the home. However, the actor had been under financial pressure in recent years. He declared for bankruptcy in 2011 and had been delinquent on payments as recently as December.

Jace is best known for his role as LAPD Officer Julien Lowe in “The Shield.” He also appeared on the show “Southland” and had small roles in the movies “Planet of the Apes,” ‘’Boogie Nights” and “Forrest Gump.”

April Jace worked as a financial aid adviser at Biola University, a private Christian school. She had two sons with Jace and another son from a previous marriage, and had worked as a school teacher.

Jason Omar Griffith looks on in court during his murder trial at the Regional Justice Center on Monday, in Las Vegas. Griffith is accused of killing Luxor "Fantasy" dancer Deborah Flores Narvaez in December 2010.

Flores, who went by Debbie, moved to Las Vegas from Maryland. She worked her way from go-go club work to a stage role in the racy “Fantasy” revue at the Luxor.

Evidence showed that by the time they became intimate in early 2010, Flores thought their relationship was monogamous. But Griffith was meeting several women for casual sex and pursuing Agnes Roux, a performer in the Cirque show “Zumanity” at the New York-New York hotel.

Griffith testified that his relationship with Flores had movie-style “Fatal Attraction” characteristics.

He said she stalked, threatened, harassed and assaulted him when he tried to limit their time together, and that no one took him seriously despite more than a dozen calls to police for help.

Prosecutors said Griffith fanned Flores’ anger by deceiving her about his sexual relationships, pulling away after accompanying her to an abortion clinic in May, then resum-

!"#$%&'!($)&(*%$&+*,-.($ /01234$5!!5!5$&*)!6$$$

ing their intimacy about the time of her 31st birthday in early July. The two continued an off-and-on relationship until her death.

Flores had a temper, and several of Griffith’s friends and co-workers testified that she became violent when she was angry — drawing stares and sometimes security officers during outbursts in public places.

Roux, who also witnessed Flores’ tantrums, testified that she broke up with Griffith after learning that he was sleeping with other Cirque dancers. She said she told Griffith in early December 2010 they couldn’t be together if he was still seeing Flores.

On the witness stand, Griffith testified the fatal argument developed after Flores told him she was pregnant for the second time in about six months and wanted another abortion. He said it escalated after Flores demanded he quit seeing Roux and devote his full attention to her and her condition.

an empire on limited to no talent.

“I don’t think any of them can make it on their talent but they can certainly make it off of their will, and they have so much will and ambition,” he said. “And they’re game to scheme and that’s what it takes. We’re going to see whether the scheming works.”

The series from Levin and Renegade 83 will premiere June 3. Levin promises hijinks, including one or more family members doing something to grab the attention of a celeb while said celeb is stopped at a red light. And there will be social media, with the family tweeting up a storm and appearing on TMZ shows and its website.

Flores’ arm hit his face, Griffith said, as she reached past him toward her purse. Griffith said he grabbed Flores from behind and fell backward to the floor. Her head was wedged in the crooks of his elbows, and she was saying she would kill him, Griffith said.

He said he held tightly until she stopped struggling.

DiGiacomo, the prosecutor, said Griffith did nothing to resuscitate Flores and coldly plotted to dispose of her body out of fear that an arrest would mean the loss of his dancing career, his lifestyle and his relationship with Roux.

Colombo testified he helped entomb and move the remains. He received immunity from prosecution before leading police to the tubs of concrete on Jan. 8, 2011.

Griffith was the one who sawed Flores’ legs from her torso, Colombo said.

Griffith said it was Colombo.

NEW YORK (AP) — Exactly what does it take to make it in Hollywood? Thanks to Harvey Levin, one famehungry family is about to find out.

Levin is co-producing a new reality series, “Famous in 12,” so named for the number of episodes on the CW that the good-looking clan from sleepy Beaumont, California, will get to prove themselves. But they won’t be alone: Levin’s TMZ machine will help.

The Artiagas family, a writer -mom and modeldaughter among them, were picked from among 10,000 videos submitted more than a year ago, Levin said Thursday by phone from Los Angeles.

He called the series a “social experiment” to test the boundaries of building

BORN TODAY Singer/songwriter Jewel (1974), chess player Anatoly Karpov (1951), actress Joan Collins (1933)

State court allows ‘pink slime’ lawsuit to proceed SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — ABC’s news anchor Diane Sawyer, two of the network’s correspondents and other defendants in a $1.2 billion defamation lawsuit against the company related to its coverage of a meat product could be deposed following a ruling by the South Dakota Supreme Court.

The state’s high court on Thursday denied a petition by the network and other defendants to review the case and largely dismiss it. The court also lifted a stay issued in April that had prevented the lawsuit’s discovery process, including depositions, to begin.

The court did not express an opinion as to the merits of the appeal.

Beef Products Inc. sued the television network in 2012 seek-

ing $1.2 billion in damages for the coverage of the meat product called lean, finely textured beef, which critics dubbed “pink slime.” Dakota Dunes-based BPI said ABC’s coverage led to the closure of three plants and roughly 700 layoffs by misleading consumers into believing the product is unsafe.

Attorneys for ABC in court have said the network in each of its broadcasts stated the U.S. Department of Agriculture deemed the product safe to eat.

They said BPI might not like the phrase pink slime, but like all ground beef, it’s pink and has a slimy texture.

The network didn’t immediately respond to requests seeking comment Thursday.

BPI attorney Erik Connolly said the company is pleased

with the ruling.

“We look forward to starting discovery,” he said.

A South Dakota judge in March refused to throw out the lawsuit. Union County Judge Cheryle Gering dismissed some claims but allowed most to go forward. Gering ruled that ABC isn’t protected against liability by saying in its news reports that the product is beef, is safe and is nutritious.

ABC filed a petition with the Supreme Court asking to have some of the claims that Gering allowed to move forward to be dismissed.

The product is made using a process in which butchered cow trimmings are heated, lean meat is separated from fat, and ammonia gas is applied to the meat to kill bacteria.

Beef Products’ attor neys argued during a December hearing that ABC’s statements about the USDA deeming the product safe to eat were coupled with negative context calling the product filler or “not meat” and implying that the USDA was not a credible source because the agency overruled scientists in approving the food product’s use.

They said the network intended to damage Beef Products’ reputation and destroy its relationship with its customers, as BPI was the only producer mentioned in ABC’s series of news reports.

Lawyers for the network said it never quoted critics saying the product is unsafe. They said the term pink slime is not incorrect and the company doesn’t get to

choose ABC’s words.

A social media-fueled outcry about the product in 2012 prompted the U.S. Department of Agriculture to offer schools districts that get food through the government’s school lunch program choices in ground beef purchases.

In addition to ABC and Sawyer, the lawsuit names ABC correspondents Jim Avila and David Kerley; Gerald Zirnstein, the U.S. Department of Agriculture microbiologist who named the product pink slime; former federal food scientist Carl Custer; and Kit Foshee, a former BPI quality assurance manager who was interviewed by ABC. Attorneys for Zirnstein, Custer and Foshee could not be reached Thursday night.

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

t’s that time of year again: Players from all over the country are descending on the Pecos Valley to take part in the world’s largest flag football tournament, the Hike It & Spike It 4-on-4 charity flag football tournament.

This year’s event is the 19th and is poised to once again set a record for

the most players and teams.

Approximately 4,000 players will participate in this year’s tournament across nearly 600 teams.

The tournament attracts nearly 50,000 spectators each year and has a direct economic impact of more than $3.5 million for the city.

“The main purpose of this tournament is create an economic impact on this city and I think we have accomplished that,” said local co-organizer

Jim Matteucci, the chairman of the board at Bank of the Southwest. “This tournament is my baby. I’ve watched it grow from Day 1 and I’m very proud of what it has become.

“That’s why (co-organizer Cla Avery) and I work so hard. Just like with a kid, you have your good times and bad times, but, at the end of the day, this is in my blood and I love it.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Miguel Olivo was released by the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday, two days after biting off a piece of Triple-A Albuquerque teammate Alex Guerrero’s left ear during a dugout brawl.

Olivo, a veteran catcher, and Guerrero, the highly paid Cuban second base prospect, fought during the Isotopes game at Salt Lake on Tuesday.

The Dodgers suspended Olivo on Wednesday while they conducted an investigation.

“It’s unimaginable, inconceivable and unforgiveable,” Dodgers President Stan Kasten said at Citi Field before the Dodgers played the New York Mets.

“It’s not a question of fault. The action of removing a part of someone’s ear is unforgiveable. Fault is not an issue here.”

The 27-year-old Guerrero had reconstructive surgery on his ear and there is no timetable for his return, Kasten said. The Dodgers executive said he was told Olivo bit off significant chunk from the top of Guerrero’s ear.

“They didn’t stich him up and say go out. This is plastic surgery,” Kasten said. “They had to reattach that portion of the ear and regrow skin over it.

It’s quite complicated.”

Joe Durant leads Senior PGA Championship

BENTON HARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Joe Durant knows his future is on the Champions Tour. That doesn’t stop him from wanting to play on the PGA Tour.

“I guess there’s that part of your ego that still thinks you can play on the regular tour and you still want to prove you can do that,” Durant said after birdieing his final hole

Thursday for a 6-under 65 and a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Senior PGA Championship.

Making his third Champions Tour start after turning 50 on April 7, the four-time PGA Tour winner had seven birdies and a bogey at Harbor Shores.

Dan Forsman, fighting an arthritic left hip, opened with a 66, and Brad Faxon had a 67. Mark Brooks and P.H. Horgan III shot 68, and two-time Senior PGA winner Jay Haas and Colin Montgomerie were in the group at 69.

Kenny Perry, the winner last week in the Regions Tradition in Alabama, topped the group at 70 with Bernhard Langer, Tom Lehman, John Cook and Tom Watson.

Durant, coming off a ninth-place tie Sunday at Shoal Creek in the first major of the year, missed only one fairway and birdied all the par 5s. He also birdied the par-4 seventh hole that plays up a sand dune and usually into the wind off Lake Michigan.

“I just had a nice rhythm,” said Durant who has played on the PGA Tour, Web.com Tour and the Champions Tour this season and plans to play the PGA Tour and Champions the rest of the year. “I didn’t try to do anything fancy. I just went from point A to point B and hit a lot of good shots. It worked out to be a nice round.”

Durant has struggled with his PGA Tour status position to get into events.

“I know my future is more out here than out there, but I would just like to play out there a little bit,” he said. “It doesn’t get any easier out there, that’s for sure.”

Forsman, a three-time winner on the Champions Tour after winning five times on the PGA Tour, had four birdies and a bogey — on the seventh — in his final nine holes.

“It’s elusive,” Forsman said of good play this year. “It’s a challenging game by any measure. Certainly the older you get, the aches and pains come along.”

Faxon made two 35-foot birdie putts early in his round. He has only one top-40 finish in eight tournaments this year and missed the cuts in his two previous Senior PGA appearances.

“There was really nothing to predict this round,” Faxon said. “But I’m excited about playing. My wife (Dory) came in yesterday and we were talking about just playing golf and not worrying too much about stuff. And it happened.”

Perry is trying to win his fourth consecutive Champions Tour major. He won the Senior Players Championship and U.S. Senior Open in consecutive tour starts last year, then skipped the Senior British Open.

He said he is making adjustments to the greens at Harbor Shores.

“The last two weeks the greens have been pretty fast, and this week the greens are not nearly has fast on the roll out, so you’ve got to hit them a little bit,” he said.

“Any time you can shoot under par in a major you’ve done a good job. I was very pleased with my round even though I bogeyed the last hole with an 8-iron in my hand.”

Lee Rinker, who played the PGA Tour fulltime from 1984 to 1999, was the top club pro with a 69. He’s the director of golf at Emerald Dunes Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Roger Chapman, the 2012 winner at Harbor Shores, opened with a 71.

Japan’s Kohki Idoki, the winner last year at Bellerive in St. Louis, had a 76.

Mark Cuban apologizes to Trayvon Martin family

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban apologized Thursday to Trayvon Martin’s family over his choice of words in a videotaped interview in which he addressed bigotry and prejudice.

Cuban even revealed some of his own prejudices in the interview with Inc. magazine, and said he believes everyone has “prejudices and bigotries” on some level. But after his words — which came with the NBA still dealing with the fallout over racist remarks made by now-banned Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling — created a stir in social media and other circles, Cuban took to Twitter to offer his apology.

“In hindsight I should have used different examples,” Cuban wrote. “I didn’t consider the Trayvon Martin family, and I apologize to them for that.”

Cuban also said he stands by the substance of the interview.

Martin was the black Florida teen who was shot and killed by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in February 2012. Martin was wearing a hooded sweatshirt — commonly called a “hoodie” — that night, and that particular piece of clothing became a rallying cry for those who demanded justice.

Zimmerman was eventually acquitted.

“We’re all prejudiced in one way or the other,” Cuban said in the Inc. interview. “If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it’s late at night, I’m walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street, there’s a guy that has tattoos all over his face — white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere — I’m walking back to the other side of the street. And the list goes on of stereotypes that we all live up to and are fearful of.”

When shown that excerpt of the interview Thursday, Chris Bosh of the Miami Heat cringed.

“It’s just a sensitive time,” Bosh said.

Cuban has not revealed how he will vote on June 3, when NBA owners are scheduled to cast ballots on a motion to oust Sterling and force him to sell the Clippers. Cuban has called the comments made by Sterling “abhorrent,” adding that there is “no place for racism in the NBA, any business I’m associated with.”

Cuban has, however, cautioned that the Sterling matter is a “very slippery slope.”

“While we all have our prejudices and bigotries, we have to learn that it’s an issue that we have to control,” Cuban told Inc. “It’s part of my responsibility as an entrepreneur to try to solve it, not just to kick the problem down the road because it does my company no good, does my customers no good, does society no good if my response to somebody and their racism or bigotry is to say ‘It’s not right for you to be here, go take your attitude somewhere else.”’

Cuban also told Inc. that he knows he is not perfect, and that “it’s not appropriate for me to throw stones.” The magazine has a 2 1⁄2-minute clip of Cuban speaking about the topics on its web site, along with about an hourlong appearance — with the Mavs owner discussing many matters — at its Growco Conference in Nashville on

Roswell Daily Record Wednesday.

“We’re a lot less tolerant of different views and it’s not necessarily easy for everybody to adopt or adapt or evolve,” Cuban said.

NFL

Dozen 1st-year officials set for 2014 NFL season

NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL has hired 12 new officials for the 2014 season and promoted two veterans to referee.

Ronald Torbert and Craig Wrolstad were promoted to referee, replacing the retired Scott Green and Ron Winter, the league announced Thursday. Wrolstad has spent the past 11 seasons as a field judge. Torbert has worked the past four seasons as a side judge.

Among the dozen new officials is side judge Shawn Hochuli, the son of always-recognizable referee Ed Hochuli, and field judge Brad Freeman, the son of back judge Steve Freeman, a former player with Buffalo.

Two women, line judge Sarah Thomas and head linesman Maia Chaka, will work minicamps and preseason games this year.

They are in the officiating development program and officiated in Conference USA in 2013.

“The NFL is about constantly striving to improve performance, and that is certainly the case for our game officials,” said Dean Blandino, the league’s director of officiating.

“Both Ron and Craig have proven to be outstanding NFL officials and they are ready to assume the increased responsibilities of the referee position. Our 12 first-year officials were all among the best in college football.”

The other 10 first-year officials are umpires Brad Allen and Bryan Neale; head linesman Patrick Turner; field judges Eugene Hall and John Jenkins; side judges Alex Kemp and Scott Novak; line judge Ed Walker; and back judges Rich Martinez and Steve Patrick.

The most experienced officials are referees Walt Coleman, in his 26th season, and the senior Hochuli and Mike Carey, each in his 25th. In all, 119 officials will work in seven-man crews during the regular season.

Steve Freeman and Philip McKinnely, who was with the Falcons, Rams and Bears, are former players now officiating games.

OJ submits new appeal in Vegas robbery conviction

LAS VEGAS (AP) — O.J. Simpson’s lawyers submitted a supersized appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court, seeking the former football star’s release from prison and a new trial in his 2007 Las Vegas armed-robbery case.

The lawyers met a midnight Wednesday deadline to submit a request for the court to review Simpson’s claim that 2008 trial in Las Vegas was tainted by his fame and notoriety following his 1995 acquittal in Los Angeles in the deaths of his ex-wife and her friend.

However, the document totaled 19,993 words, court spokesman Michael Sommermeyer said Thursday. That was some 43 percent longer than the 14,000word limit the court had set.

It will be up to the seven justices to decide whether to accept it for filing and consideration. Until that time, the document hasn’t been made public. The court hasn’t decided whether to hear oral arguments.

Simpson, 66, is serving nine to 33 years in a northern Nevada prison after being found guilty of leading a group of armed men in a September 2007 confrontation with two sports memorabilia dealers at a Las Vegas casino hotel. He was convicted of kidnapping, armed robbery and other charges. He’s not eligible for parole until late 2017.

The appeal stems from arguments rejected last year by Clark County District Judge Linda Marie Bell that Simpson’s trial attorney botched Simpson’s trial and first appeal to the state Supreme Court, the only appeals court in Nevada.

Simpson attorney Patricia Palm said the appeal ran long because she and attorneys Ozzie Fumo and Tom Pitaro were responding in detail to the judge’s Nov. 26 ruling, which totaled 101 pages.

Palm said the state high court routinely accepts oversized filings in complex cases.

She also submitted 36 appendices to the appeal brief.

Bell’s ruling came after she held five days of hearings in Las Vegas on a 94-page petition that Palm filed in May 2012 seeking a new trial on 22 possible grounds.

“We talk about being the world’s largest flag football tournament all the time, and now we finally have that international flavor,” Avery, a retired educator and coach, said about the tournament’s first all-international team.

“This is the most enjoyable weekend of the year. I work all year to enjoy this weekend,” Avery continued. “The people who come and say how much they enjoy it, I think that’s the aspect that spurs me on. The gratification of knowing that we’re putting on a quality event that people appreciate. Everybody I get to know and become friends with, I just love it.”

Landon Donovan among seven cut from World Cup squad STANFORD, Califor nia (AP) — Leading scorer Landon Donovan was among seven players cut as the United States announced its 23-man World Cup squad on Thursday.

The 32-year-old attacker, bidding to make his fourth World Cup, was bypassed by U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann in favor of Aron Johannsson and Chris Wondolowski, who joined Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey as the forwards.

Also cut were defenders Brad Evans, Clarence Goodson and Michael Parkhurst, midfielders Joe Corona and Maurice Edu, and forward Terrence Boyd.

The U.S. Soccer Federation quoted Klinsmann as saying “this is certainly one of the toughest decisions in my coaching career, to tell a player like him, with everything he has done and what he represents, to tell him that he’s not part of that 23 right now.”

“I just see some other players slightly ahead of him,” Klinsmann said, “He took it the best way possible. His disappointment is huge, which I totally understand. He took it very professionally. He knows I have the highest respect for him, but I have to make the decisions as of

today for this group going to Brazil.”

Donovan has 57 goals in 156 international appearances and has been the face of American football for a decade, both with the national team and with Major League Soccer, where he has won five titles.

Donovan was a mainstay of the national team before he took a sabbatical of about four months after the 2012 season, spending part of the time in Cambodia. Klinsmann said Donovan would have to earn his spot back.

“I was looking forward to playing in Brazil and, as you can imagine, I am very disappointed with today’s decision,” Donovan said in a statement posted on Facebook. “Regardless, I will be cheering on my friends and teammates this summer, and I remain committed to helping grow soccer in the U.S. in the years to come.”

He recalled Donovan for last summer’s Gold Cup, where Donovan excelled, and played Donovan for World Cup qualifiers. But Klinsmann kept him out of the starting lineup for last month’s friendly against Mexico, saying Donovan practiced poorly because of a knee problem.

Donovan said this week his knee was OK. “I’m very confident in my abilities and I’m deserving to be a part of the squad, but I have to prove that, and I have to earn it,” he said on Monday.

Just six players return from the

2010 team: goalkeepers Tim Howard and Brad Guzan; midfielder Michael Bradley; forwards Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey; and defender DaMarcus Beasley, who is bidding to become the first American to play in his fourth World Cup. Beasley and Donovan were teammates on the U.S. team that finished fourth in the 1999 FIFA Under -17 World Championship.

“Landon is my brother. I’ve known Landon since I was 15. We’ve been through a lot together,” Beasley said.

“To not have him there is difficult.”

Members of the 23-man roster are: Goalkeepers: Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Tim Howard (Everton), Nick Rimando (Salt Lake) Defenders: DaMarcus Beasley (Puebla), Matt Besler (Kansas City), John Brooks (Hertha Berlin), Geoff Cameron (Stoke), Timmy Chandler (Nuremberg), Omar Gonzalez (Los Angeles), Fabian Johnson (Borussia Moenchengladbach), DeAndre Yedlin (Seattle) Midfielders: Kyle Beckerman (Salt Lake), Alejandro Bedoya (Nantes), Michael Bradley (Toronto), Brad Davis (Houston), Mix Diskerud (Rosenborg), Julian Green (Bayern Munich), Jermaine Jones (Besiktas), Graham Zusi (Kansas City) Forwards: Jozy Altidore (Sunderland), Clint Dempsey (Seattle), Aron Johannsson (AZ Alkmaar), Chris Wondolowski (San Jose)

MLB: Choo homers to help Rangers beat Tigers

DETROIT (AP) — Shin-Soo Choo homered, Chris Gimenez had four hits and the T exas Rangers rolled to a 9-2 victory over the slumping Detroit Tigers on Thursday.

T exas was without Prince Fielder, who stayed home when the Rangers left for Detroit to face the big first baseman’s former team. Fielder has been out because of a herniated disk in his neck.

Yu Darvish (4-2) allowed two runs and six hits in seven innings, striking out six and walking thr ee. The Rangers broke through quickly against Detroit rookie Robbie Ray (1-1), who lasted only 3 1 ⁄ 3 innings.

Ray allowed seven runs, nine hits and four walks, and the AL Central-leading Tigers lost their fourth straight.

Ian Kinsler, who was traded to Detroit for Fielder in an offseason blockbuster, went 1 for 3 in his first game against the Rangers.

Blue Jays 7, Red Sox 2 BOSTON (AP) — Mark Buehrle won his major league-leading eighth game, Melky Cabrera and Jose Bautista homered on consecutive pitches as Toronto completed a three-game sweep.

Toronto improved to 8-2 in its last 10 games, while Boston lost its seventh straight. The Red Sox went 0-6 on their home stand, the first time since June 1994, when they also lost six in a row at Fenway Park, that they were winless on a homestand of at least six games.

Buehrle (8-1) allowed two runs in the first two innings and left after giving up seven hits and no walks with five strikeouts in seven innings. He retired 11 of his last 12 batters.

Rays 5, Athletics 2, 11 inn.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Sean Rodriguez hit a three-run home run with two out in the 11th inning to lift Tampa Bay. Rodriguez’s team-leading fifth homer came off Luke Gregerson after Desmond Jennings’ twoout single had tied it against Dan Otero (4-1).

Josh Lueke (1-2) got the win after one inning of relief for the Rays, who broke a four -game losing streak.

The Athletics lost for only the second time in 13 games.

Indians 8, Orioles 7, 13 inn.

BAL TIMORE (AP) — Carlos Santana doubled in two runs with two outs in the 13th inning, and Cleveland won its second straight 13-inning game and fourth straight overall.

R yan Raybur n and Lonnie Chisenhall homered for the Indians, whose winning streak ties a season high. Three of Cleveland’s last four games have gone extra innings, including a 13inning win over Detr oit on Wednesday night.

After two hits and a walk loaded the bases in the 13th, Santana came to plate against T roy Patton (0-1) with a .148 batting average. He pulled a sharp grounder inside the thirdbase line, only his third hit in 32 at-bats with two outs and runners on.

Josh Outman (4-0) pitched two scoreless innings and Scott Atchison got three outs for his first save.

White Sox 3, Yankees 2 CHICAGO (AP) — Chris Sale retired 18 of 19 batters over six scoreless innings in his return from an arm injury for Chicago.

The left-hander retired the first 17 hitters after missing more than a month because of a flexor strain in his pitching arm, and Chicago hung on after Mark T eixeira singled in two runs against Ronald Belisario in the ninth.

An All-Star the past two seasons, Sale (4-0) struck out 10 and didn’t even come close to allowing a runner until Zoilo Almonte — a .167 hitter entering the game — lined a single to center with two out in the sixth.

The Dodgers should have a better idea of how long Guerrero will be out by Sunday, Kasten said. After he is released from the Salt Lake City hospital, he will go to Los Angeles for the next phase of his recovery.

“He’s going to be fine one way or another,” Kasten said. “He’s going to play.”

Kasten said there was no decision yet on whether Guerrero will file criminal charges.

Olivo will not face discipline from the commissioner’s of fice because the Dodgers terminated his contract. Under the collective bargaining agreement, either the club or Major League Baseball can discipline a player, not both.

Guerrero signed a $28 million, fouryear deal with the Dodgers in October, and he was beaten out for the starting second base job by Dee Gordon in spring training.

He is hitting .376 with 10 home runs and 29 RBIs in the Pacific Coast League.

The fight happened in the dugout during the eighth inning of Albuquerque’s 7-4 loss to Salt Lake, briefly

tough-luck loser for New York, allowing two runs over seven innings.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Marlins 4, Phillies 3 MIAMI (AP) — Christian Yelich hit a two-out, bases-loaded RBI single in the ninth inning Thursday to give the Miami Marlins their fifth walkof f win of the year, and they beat the Philadelphia Phillies.

The Marlins won despite squandering a 3-0 eighth-inning lead. They took the series and improved to 19-6 at home, best in majors.

Miami is 6-17 on road, worst in majors.

Philadelphia’s Marlon Byrd tied the game in the eighth with a two-run homer, his sixth.

Miami’s Mar cell Ozuna hit a two-run homer, giving him two homers and seven RBIs in the past two games.

Ozuna singled with one out in the ninth off Jake Diekman (22), then took second on a twoout single by Jeff Mathis. Pinch hitter Reid Johnson reached on an infield single to load the bases, and Yelich grounded a single up the middle.

Marlins closer Steve Cishek (4-1) struck out two with a runner at second to end the ninth.

The Phillies went 1 for 7 with runners in scoring position, with Byrd’s homer the lone hit.

Cardinals 4, Diamondbacks 2 ST. LOUIS (AP) — Allen Craig drove in the go-ahead run with a two-out double in the seventh inning and St. Louis completed a three-game sweep.

The sweep was the first of a three-game series this season for St. Louis, which has won seven of eight.

Shane Robinson had a tworun double as part of a three-hit night.

Pat Neshek (1-0) pitched scoreless seventh and eighth innings to pick up his first win as a Cardinal.

Trevor Rosenthal retired Arizona in order in the ninth for his 14th save in 16 chances.

Robinson, who was called up

delaying the game, and both players were removed from the lineup soon afterward.

The Los Angeles Times reported the disagreement began with Olivo getting upset that Guerrero failed to tag out a runner after a throw from Olivo, according to Guerrero’s agent, Scott Boras.

Replays showed Olivo charging Guerrero during a mound visit.

In his 13th big league season, Olivo has displayed a hot temper on the field before. He charged at Jose Reyes and missed with a wild punch during a dustup between the Marlins and Mets in the 2007 season.

The 35-year-old catcher appeared in eight games for the Dodgers this month.

He was paid $110,000 in the minors and $800,000 while with the big league club.

Kasten said Olivo is scheduled to clear waivers Saturday. The Dodgers might then have to deal with the issue of whether they have to pay Olivo the remainder of his contract.

Olivo was sent down last week when A.J. Ellis came off the disabled.

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said he hasn’t thought about how the loss of Olivo, who was on the 40-man roster, af fects the organizations depth at catcher.

Horse dies in freak fall at Churchill Downs Roswell Daily Record

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A racehorse died Thursday at Churchill Downs after a freak fall that the trainer blamed on the sound of a starting gate bell blaring on the track’s new sound system.

The 5-year-old mare Never Tell L ynda was walking toward the paddock on the track when she reared, twisted and fell, hitting her head, said her trainer, Kenneth Wirth. She died before the first race of the day at the track that’s home to the Kentucky Derby.

A heartbroken Wirth later said the horse was startled by what Wirth thinks was the sound of a starting gate bell coming from a

commercial on Churchill’s massive new video board. The system includes 750 speakers.

“We teach horses to break from that,” he said. “And you’ve got it on a loud speaker that everybody in a two-city block can hear. Well, what’s she going to do? She thinks she’s supposed to take off.

And that’s what she did. And when she did, she lunged and she lost her balance and went down.”

The fall was not witnessed by any of the track veterinarians, but staff rushed to her aid, said Will Farmer, chief racing veterinarian for the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission.

“It was quickly evident that this

Friday, May 23, 2014

horse was in the process of expiring,” he said. “To ease her suffering, one of our veterinarians euthanized her.”

A necropsy will be performed on the horse, but the clinical signs matched the trainer’s description, Farmer said.

Wirth said the mare was being schooled, meaning she was not entered in the race but was doing a walk-through to prepare her for future races.

A Churchill Downs spokesman said the “extremely rare” schooling accident was heartbreaking.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with her connections,” said track spokesman Darren Rogers. “We’re currently gathering facts and

talking with people about what might have led to Never Tell Lynda’s accident. ... The health and safety of our human and equine athletes remains our highest priority.”

Wirth said the sound system was “way too loud” at the time of the accident.

“The only thing you can blame is the music,” Wirth said.

“They’ve got to do something about it. ... The horses are the main thing here.”

Another trainer, Dale Romans, said he hasn’t seen any of his horses become startled by Churchill’s sound system.

“It’s one of those things, you try to think of everything,” he said.

“They just didn’t think of this happening.”

Romans said the track needs to “step up, do what’s right and fix it” to prevent similar tragedies.

“We can’t bring her back,” he said. “All we can do, in her sacrifice, is to make sure that it never happens again.”

The video board looming over the backstretch has become a new bragging point for Churchill.

The track’s newest landmark made its debut in the days leading up to the Kentucky Derby this spring. Towering 170 feet over the backstretch, the high-definition, $12 million video screen is bigger than three basketball courts.

Matthew leads by 1 Johnson shoots 65 for Colonial lead MOBILE, Ala. (AP) — Catriona Matthew took the first-round lead Thursday in the Airbus LPGA Classic, holing a bunker shot for an eagle and finishing with an 8under 64.

The 44-year -old Scot rebounded from a bogey on the par-4 12th — her third hole in the morning round — with the eagle on the par-5 13th and birdied seven of her final 11 holes.

“That kind of kickstarted my round,” Matthew said about the eagle.

She won the last of her four LPGA Tour titles in 2011.

“Obviously, really pleased,” Matthew said.

“Just had two weeks at home, so never quite know what you’re going to come out and play like. So, yeah, delighted.

Got the putter going and holed some putts.”

Charley Hull had a bogey-free 65 in the afternoon. The 18-yearold English player birdied the final two holes on the Crossings Course at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail’s Magnolia Grove complex.

“I putted quite well, hit it quite solid, and hit, I think, every green,” said Hull, playing on a sponsor exemption. “I still left a few shots out there. I missed a 3- or 4footer, but hey, another day tomorrow and hopefully I can go low.”

Second-ranked Stacy Lewis, No. 4 Suzann Pettersen and South Korea’s Eun-Hee Ji shot 66.

Lewis, the 2012 winner, finished her first nine with birdies on Nos. 15-18. She hit a 7-iron to 15 feet on the par -4 15, got up-and-down from over the back of the green on the par-5 16th, hit a 6-iron to 15 feet on the par-3 17th and hit a 6-iron to 12 feet on the par-4 18th.

“The scores are so low that if you don’t go pretty low the first day, you’re kind of behind

the 8-ball,” Lewis said.

So, it was really nice to get off to a good start.”

The Texan won the North Texas LPGA Shootout three weeks ago for her ninth tour title. Last week in Virginia, she closed with a 74 to tie for 12th in the Kingsmill Championship.

“Coming of f of last week where I didn’t hit the ball well, I was happy with the way I drove it today,” Lewis said. “I hit it solid and made some putts. Figured something little out in my putting and I think that might help the rest of the week.”

Pettersen, playing her fourth event since returning from a back injury, had a bogey-free round.

“I’m feeling pretty good, felt pretty calm,” Pettersen said. “I feel like my game is right there, trying to be patiently aggressive.

Playing smart on the hole locations that aren’t quite set up for being aggressive and then trying to take advantage.

But the greens are fairly receptive, so it feels like you can kind of fire at the pin and not have to worry about too much spin, which makes this course a little bit easier.”

Ji, the 2009 U.S. Women’s Open champion, birdied four of the five holes in a bogey-free round.

Bahamas winner Jessica Korda was three strokes back at 67 along with 2010 champion Se Ri Pak, Nicole Castrale, Julieta Granada, Moira Dunn and Jenny Shin.

Pak also won the Tournament of Champions on the course in 2001 and 2002.

Anna Nordqvist, a two-time winner this year, had a 68, and Kraft Nabisco winner Lexi Thompson opened with a 70. Michelle Wie, the winner in Hawaii, and defending champion Jennifer Johnson shot 71.

includes LaDainian Tomlinson, Sterling Sharpe and Tony Boselli.

Thomas, who died in 2000 at age 33 shortly after an automobile accident left him paralyzed, was one of the Hall of Fame’s most obvious omissions. Alabama fans had been growing increasingly annoyed by the wait in recent years.

His credentials could not be argued against. After choosing to attend Alabama over Oklahoma, Thomas played for the Tide from 1985-88. He won the Butkus Award as the nation’s best linebacker as a senior when he had 27 sacks. He finished his career with 52 sacks, a school record.

“He was really, really fond of Alabama and he loved the Crimson Tide, not only the school but the city of Tuscaloosa itself,” Morgan said.

Thomas was drafted fourth overall by the Kansas City Chiefs in 1989 and made nine Pro Bowls. He was

FOR T WOR TH, T exas (AP) — Dustin Johnson had played Colonial only once before, six years ago when he didn’t even make it to the final round.

In his retur n to Hogan’s Alley, Johnson took a one-stroke lead after the first round.

Johnson shot a bogey-free 5-under 65 on Thursday, driving a lot of 3irons off the tees into the fairways and hitting 16 of 18 greens in regulation.

“I’ve got to keep doing what I’m doing,” Johnson said. “I’ve got a pretty good game plan for the golf course off the tee. So I’m going to stick to that, just trying to keep getting birdie looks on every hole.”

His only birdie on the back nine was a 2-footer at the 177-yard 16th hole. That was enough to lead after his front-side 31 that included a 45foot birdie putt on the difficult par-4 fifth hole.

Hunter Mahan, playing in the group ahead of Johnson, led before a double-bogey 6 at the 433-yard 18th hole for a 66. He was tied for second with Harris English, Tim Wilkinson and Robert Streb.

Jimmy Walker, a three-time winner this season, and 20-year -old Dallas native Jordan Spieth were in the group of 10 players at 67.

Mahan started eagle-birdie and was already 6 under after a 3-foot birdie on the 178-yard eighth hole.

He had two bogeys and two more birdies before his drive at the 18th hole into the right rough, with trees

blocking a clear shot to the green.

After punching the ball back into the fairway, his approach came settled on the edge of the fringe and he eventually two-putted from 7 feet.

“You have to get over it,” Mahan said about the disappointing 18th.

“It’s all about the drive there.”

Adam Scott, playing as the No. 1 player in the world for the first time, shot 71 after playing his first nine holes at 4-over 39.

Scott had bogey-6 on the straight 631-yard 11th hole, his second of the day, when he hit twice from fairway bunkers. After a two-putt from 11 feet at the 433-yard 18th hole, Scott was bogey-free the rest of the way, with consecutive short birdies after making the turn.

“I thought I actually hit plenty of good shots,” Scott said. “All of a sudden, I had the momentum going the way I wanted and managed to hang on for the next few holes.”

The Australian said he felt the same as he did before this week when he overtook injured T iger Woods for the top spot in the world ranking.

“There’s not a big difference,” Scott said. “It’s always the first tee nerves of starting a tournament out, but I certainly didn’t feel that much different.”

Johnson’s 65 was the highest score to lead after the first round at Hogan’s Alley since another 65 in 2002. There were opening 62s in two of the previous three Colonials.

When he first played at Colonial in

2008, Johnson made the initial cut.

But after a 72 in the third round, he was among six more players trimmed to reduce the field to 73 for the final day.

Walker, the FedEx Cup points leader, also played a bogey-free round with a tremendous par-saver at the 470-yard fifth hole after hitting his drive left into the rough under trees. With the ball on a hill several inches below his feet, he hit an off-balance shot to the left of the green. He then chipped up over the bunker, and the ball rolled to inside 4 feet of the cup.

“I kind of had a shot, and I went for it,’ he said. “I had a big high cut over the trees, and didn’t hit a very good shot, but it came up just short of the green, and made a great up and down there.”

Matt Kuchar, ranked No. 4 in the world and with a chance to move to the top with a victory, had birdies at Nos. 11 and 12 early in his round.

He then had five bogeys before finally getting his only other birdie on his 16th hole, an 11-foot putt on the 437-yard seventh hole, in a 72. That matched his highest score in his 29 career rounds at Colonial, where he finished second last year.

Rickie Fowler, who stars in a series of funny commercials for tournament sponsor Crowne Plaza, played with flu-like symptoms and had two triple bogeys in an 80, the worst score in the 123-player invitational field.

Duke leads NCAA Women’s Golf Championship

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Duke took a six-stroke lead over defending champion Southern California on Thursday in the third round of the NCAA Women’s Golf Championship, and the Blue Devils’ Celine Boutier tied the Trojans’ Doris Chen atop the individual standings.

Duke matched topranked Southern California with a 2-under 278 to reach 16-over 856. Secondround leader Oklahoma struggled to an 11-over 291 to drop into third at 26 over. UCLA was fourth at 27 over, followed by Mississippi State at 30 over, and Arizona, Arizona State and North Carolina State at 31 over.

Tomlinson led the nation in rushing in his final two seasons at TCU (1999 and 2000) and finished fourth in the Heisman voting in 2000.

“This is a great honor,” said Tomlinson, who attended the news conference. “As a kid you never set out to land in the College Football Hall of Fame. You’re just playing with your buddies, having fun, playing a game that you love.”

Tomlinson thanked TCU for giving him a chance.

In addition to Chen’s 68, USC counted a Kyung Kim’s 67, Sophia Popov’s 70 and Karen Chung’s 73.

Defending NCAA champion Annie Park shot 76.

Instead of giving her squad a pep talk Wednesday night, USC coach Andrea Gaston sent her team out to individual dinners with their families.

Chirapat Jao-Javanil, the 2002 champion, had a 71.

Second-round individual leader Alexandra Kaui had a triple bogey on the par-5 third hole and a quadruplebogey 7 on the sixth to shoot 80 and fall into a tie for 16th.

Broncos backfield wide open behind Montee Ball

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peyton Manning has thrown 100 touchdown passes in his two seasons in Denver. Although the fivetime MVP has another group of tantalizing targets with the additions of Emmanuel Sanders and Cody Latimer, the Broncos want more balance in 2014.

With 1,000-yard rusher Knowshon Moreno going to Miami, second-year pro Montee Ball takes over as the Broncos’ starting running back.

After that, it’s anybody’s guess.

C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman could move up the pecking order or they might be unseated by one or more of the college free agents who signed with Denver after the Broncos chose not to draft a running back.

“Right now it’s an open competition for that spot, for all those spots,” of fensive coordinator Adam Gase said. “So, we need to see who is going to be the guy to

step up.”

Although general manager John Elway might still sign a veteran back this summer, he added an intriguing list of undrafted free agents this month: —Kapri Bibbs, who ran for a school-record 1,741 yards and an NCAA-leading 31 TDs in his lone season at Colorado State.

—Brennan Clay of Oklahoma.

—Juwan Thompson of Duke.

—And Jerodis Williams, who went to training camp with the Minnesota Vikings last summer.

Hillman, a third-year pro, might be on the thinnest ice of any incumbent Broncos player.

He has frequently found himself in the coaches’ doghouse. He began last year as the starter but had two fumbles that were returned for TDs in the preseason and slipped so far down the depth chart that by midseason he was mostly a game-day inactive.

He has a clean slate from Gase

and running backs coach Eric Studesville.

“We’ve talked to him, Eric and myself, as far as, ‘Hey, this is a new start to the year. Whatever happened in the past, you’ve got to build off it. We’ve just got to start over,”’ Gase said.

Another slip-up and there’s plenty of running backs ready to take his spot, including Clay (511, 201) whose vision, burst, balance and footwork made for an impressive showing at the Broncos’ rookie minicamp last weekend.

Clay could end up being the speedster Hillman was supposed to be for the Broncos before injuries and maturity issues held him back the last two seasons.

As Ball can attest, the biggest thing for a rookie running back to do in Denver is to pick up the blitz first, then the first down, and pass protection is where Thompson, a powerful all-pur-

Roswell Daily Record

pose back who packs 225 pounds on his 5-foot-11 frame, could have the edge.

Thompson also has a head start because he’s from Duke, where Manning has gathered with his receivers each of the last two springs for a jumpstart on his of fseason work under the watchful eye of Blue Devils coach David Cutcliffe, who was Manning’s offensive coordinator in college and remains one of his closest confidants.

“I was able to see those guys, see their practice habits, see how it correlated back to Denver,” Thompson said.

Thompson has fresh legs, too, as he wasn’t nearly the workhorse in college that Bibbs, Williams and Clay were. He was one of six Duke running backs with at least 60 carries last season, running 64 times for 348 yards and one TD. “But at the end of the day we

President Obama visits Cooperstown

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. (AP) — In 75 years, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum has attracted more than 160 million visitors and, at last, one sitting president.

Seven-year-old Cooper Hodgdon’s bright orange sign emblazoned with “President Obama, Play Ball” welcomed the president to Cooperstown, where businesses were preparing for the first big weekend of tourist season that holds much promise, for a speech on tourism.

Obama visited the quaint upstate village on Thursday in a bid to promote a resource he said he feels can give the country more of an economic jolt than it already does.

“It’s a great honor to be the first,” Obama said at the start of a speech inside the Hall of Fame’s Plaque Gallery, with Babe Ruth’s bronze likeness hanging on the wall behind him and Hall of Famer Andre Dawson sitting in front. “The good news is we have a great product. People want to come here. We’re trying to make it easier. We want to bring in more visitors, faster. Then they can get to Cooperstown faster.

“We’re making great strides, but we can do better.”

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo was late arriving after accepting the Democratic Party nomination on Long Island and watched the president’s speech backstage.

“It’s great publicity for Cooperstown and the state,” Cuomo said. “His message resonates with us. Tourism is big business in the state, a business

Police issue warrant for Broncos’ T.J. Ward

DENVER (AP) — Police have issued an arrest warrant for Broncos safety T.J. Ward on an assault charge stemming from a fight at a Denver strip club on May 9.

“We have been aware of this issue and will continue to review all of the facts,” the Broncos said in a statement.

Court records show the disturbance happened at PT’s All Nude.

Denver police spokesman Sonny Jackson did not know details of the incident but described it as “some type of disturbance at a nightclub.” He said Ward will be charged with a misdemeanor count of assault.

A manager at PT’s told The Associated Press he had no information about the incident.

Ward’s agent, Josh Arnold, didn’t immediately return a phone call from the AP seeking comment.

Ward is coming off a Pro Bowl season in Cleveland and this spring signed a four-year, $22.5 million deal with Denver.

Ward, who was also a second-team All-Pro last season, is one of three marquee free agents the Broncos signed to add an edge to their defense following their 43-8 loss to Seattle in the Super Bowl. The others are pass-rusher DeMarcus Ware and cornerback Aqib Talib.

“He’s a young, explosive strong safety who is going to bring a lot of energy and toughness to our secondary,” general manager John Elway said when he signed Ward on March 11 to a contract that guarantees the 27-year-old Oregon alum $14 million.

Ward projects as the Broncos’ strong safety with Rahim Moore returning at free safety. Ward can also line up as a weak-side linebacker in some of the Broncos’ specialty looks with six and seven defensive backs.

The visit was enough to make Cooper’s parents, physicians Travis and Gretchen Hodgdon, pull him out of school for the day.

“We think this is wonder ful for tourism,” Gretchen Hodgdon said.

“This is such a historic event, and for such a small town like Cooperstown it really represents hundreds of small towns across the United States where tourism really is a major economic driver. We’re really excited about that.”

had one goal and that was just winning,” Thompson said. “I had to put that selfishness in the backseat so we could have that record we had.”

Duke won a school-record 10 games and its first ACC Coastal Division title, climbed into the AP Top 25 and made consecutive bowl trips for the first time in program history, losing to Texas A&M in the Chick-fil-A Bowl.

Cutcliffe’s share-the-load philosophy is similar to the Broncos’ approach, and just who will be getting the carries after Ball, who ran 120 times for 559 yards as a rookie behind Moreno, will be sorted out over the next three months.

“At the running back spot, it’s hard to just have one guy and say, ‘Hey, we’re going with him for 350 carries,”’ Gase said. “It’s really not what we’re looking for.”

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My spouse and I, after many long years of school, advanced degrees and work in the corporate world, are now retired. We are (we hope) financially secure.

Both of us have siblings who were less successful for various reasons. What obligation do hardworking people have toward their less successful siblings, especially one who has been a freeloader his entire life?

“Rusty” sponged off his aging parents to keep from having to earn a decent living. We feel sorry for him, but it’s the bed he made

for himself years ago when he took shortcuts. We’re afraid if we give him a hand, he’ll expect an arm next time.

As far as I’m concerned, only Rusty’s laziness prevents him from getting a part-time job to help pay the bills. If we give him money, we’ll have to do it for the other siblings on both sides.

I know this sounds uncharitable, but we worked for 40 years and struggled through everything life had to throw at us. We saved every penny we could and invested wisely. How do we deal with family members who can take care of themselves, but don’t?

ANONYMOUS IN AMERICA DEAR ANONYMOUS: You decide on a case-by-case basis, unless all of your family members are like Rusty. And if they are, you sympathize, but don’t subsidize.

#####

DEAR ABBY: Most of my childhood was

COMICS

spent with my grandparents, who raised me until I moved out at 21. I have always regarded them as my true parents because they were always there for me.

My biological parents were also a part of my life. I would visit them on weekends. I love them, too, and appreciate that they allowed me to have a stable childhood with my grandparents.

I am engaged to be married next summer, and I need to decide who should walk me down the aisle. I’d like my grandfather to have that honor, but I don’t want to hurt my father by not asking him to do it.

What should I do when the time comes to make the decision?

NAMELESS IN THE MIDWEST DEAR NAMELESS: Consider asking both of them to walk you down the aisle. I’m sure it would touch not only their hearts, but also those of your guests to see you honor your grandfather, who was your “weekDAY father,” as well as your

dad, your “weekEND father.”

#####

Family Circus

DEAR ABBY: Organized religion has caused me many difficulties throughout my life. I would like to distance myself from it as much as possible. I consider myself a “religious independent.” I believe in God, but I don’t believe organized religion has anything to do with God. My question concerns my funeral. Since a funeral is an organized religious ceremony, is it possible to have one without clergy being present? Have you heard of anything like this, and what would you suggest?

WASHINGTON, D.C., READER DEAR READER: Instead of a funeral, many people choose to have a “celebration of life,” independent from religion.

Make sure your family and friends understand your wishes, then talk to a funeral home director and make pre-planning arrangements.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Dear Readers: Have your kids been asking to go to a SUMMER CAMP? Summer camps can be great experiences for kids. They can try new things, make new friends and create memories to last a lifetime. Here are some things to think about when choosing a camp: First, pick which type of camp you want to send your child to — a sleepaway camp, day camp, specialty camp, etc. There are many to choose from.

Once you have narrowed down your choices, look into whether the camp is licensed or accredited. There are different standards for each.

Ask questions! What training does the staff have? Do they go through background checks? How are medications handled? What is the ratio of campers to staff? If it’s a sleep-away camp, are campers left unsupervised?

Most important, you have to feel comfortable sending your child there.

So ask any questions that concern you, and find the best fit for your family.

Dear Heloise: Here’s my travel hint to research a destination while planning your trip.

Preplanning a general outline of what you want to do is very helpful. But leave room in your schedule to try things you come across while out.

Ask around, too. Locals often know the best off-the-beaten-path places to visit.

Kathy in Florida

Dear Readers: Here are a couple of reader responses to the hint about leaving your windshield wipers up to help you find your car in a parking lot: * Dona L. wrote: “I try to park facing away from the store. Cuts the rows to search in half.” * Sarena B. wrote: “Here is what I do: I park next to a cart-return area.

There are a limited number of them to search if you really lose your car, and returning the cart is simple.”

Thanks for the great ideas! Keep those letters coming!

Heloise #####

Dear Heloise: I like to use the calendar on my phone to remember appointments, birthdays, etc. My favorite part is that I can set an alert to remind me ahead of time. All you have to do is look at the options when you input something into your calendar.

Choose “alert” and then decide when you want a reminder: a day, a week, etc. An alarm will go off at the specified time to remind you. No more forgetting things!

Patrick in San Antonio

Dear Heloise: My hint for reusing zippered sheet bags: Use them instead of boxes for wrapping Christmas gifts, such as clothing, when mailing them out of state. The clothing stays folded, it’s squared off enough to wrap nicely, and the bag weighs less than a cardboard box, which helps to keep the shipping cost lower.
