Students to move during renovation ZACK DEMARS The World

COOS BAY — After the dust has settled from COVID-19 online learning, the Coos Bay School District has more changes in store for Madison Elementary School students.

Starting next fall, those students will move to the old Blossom Gulch Elementary building while crews make renovations to Madison, school district officials decided this month.

“It’s kind of a shell game when you’re moving things around until things are completed,” said Superintendent Bryan Trendell.

The renovations at Madison will be funded by the district’s

A rendering of the planned renovations at Coos Bay’s Madison Elementary School. $59.9 million BEST Bond, passed by voters in 2017.

Construction will include the removal of asbestos, new ventilation and heating, a new roof and accessibility improvements, according to bond planning documents.

Plans also call for several additions to the 1953 building,

including new classrooms, a new entry and administrative space and a stand-alone library.

The school’s library is currently housed in former classrooms, according to Trendell.

“I’m just excited that it’s going to get a major renovation,” Trendell said. “It’s one of our oldest schools and in need of a

major renovation.”

Plans for the construction were originally on a multi-year timeline, with much of the work taking place during the summers to avoid conflicting with school schedules. But that plan would’ve required having students in the building at the same time that construction was taking

place, meaning some students may have had to take classes in portable classrooms and within earshot of the construction noise.

Instead, the school board approved a plan to move the school’s students to Blossom Gulch for a year, which will allow construction crews to work on the renovations throughout the year. That’ll save the district time and money on the project, and the stress of having students in the building, Trendell said.

“Not having kids in a construction zone trying to learn, teachers trying to teach, is a huge part of it,” he said.

Blossom Gulch has been used as something of a holding space ever since its students moved to

Restaurants back to lockdown

By David Rupkalvis The World

With Oregon returning to a statewide lockdown, many local restaurateurs have been forced to close their doors to the public.

At Darrell’s Devils Food in Coos Bay, Darrell Folck said he was open for business but admitted he was a little concerned.

“It’s scary,” he said. “When the government makes mandates like that, it causes people to panic because they don’t want to be outside. Just being open is a little risky.”

Folck and his wife Shanan run their business as a team. When the shutdowns occurred earlier this year, Folck said he was forced to lay off his employees, making the business a two-per-

son operation. While that was not easy, Folck admitted some good came out of it.

“For us, it was good,” he said.

“We learned how to streamline and how to be more efficient. We also gained some more customers.”

Not all local restaurants are following the orders. At Kaffe 101, they are vowing to stay open despite the governor’s orders.

In a post on Facebook, the business wrote: “After further discussion with our board and close friends and businesses in Coos Bay. We want to inform you that we will remain OPEN for dine in. We have sectioned out 25 chairs with tables with a 6ft distance between them. We have NO tracing of

COVID back to our Kaffé. Kaffé 101 is a staple in our community.

We provide FREE lunches and FREE WiFi and a SAFE environment for children who are in virtual learning and customers who depend on internet for work. This is critical for locals who have no internet, customers who live out in Allegany or Coos River where their internet is extremely slow.

“We provide a save haven for elderly members of our society that do not have any family. We are their family. Without their daily trip into Kaffé 101, they would fall into a depression which would lead to further mental illness and possibly suicide. We provide a SAFE and accommodating place of worship for anyone and groups alike. We have a sanitation and cleaning

protocol in place.

“We are not saying we don’t believe the virus is real. We know it is. Which is why we have these precautions in place already. Our community depends on local businesses and the support we provide. My family and I have worked hard this past year to keep our business open, without any help from the government. We should be able to decide how to operate and run our business.

“What has kept us going is the local community and the smiles we get on a daily basis and the fact that our business provides a sense of security and stability for our community. Enough is enough it’s time to take a stand.”

Millions stick to travel plans despite warnings (AP) - More than 1 million Americans a day packed airports and planes over the weekend even as coronavirus deaths surged across the U.S. and public health experts begged people to stay home and avoid big Thanksgiving gatherings.

And the crowds are only expected to grow. Next Sunday is likely to be the busiest day of the holiday period.

To be sure, the number of people flying for Thanksgiving is down by more than half from last year because of the rapidly worsening outbreak. However, the 3 million who went through U.S. airport checkpoints from Friday

through Sunday marked the biggest crowds since mid-March, when the COVID-19 crisis took hold in the United States.

Many travelers are unwilling to miss out on seeing family and are convinced they can do it safely. Also, many colleges have ended their in-person classes, propelling students to return home.

Laurie Pearcy, director of administration for a Minneapolis law firm, is flying to New Orleans to attend her daughter’s bridal shower and have a small Thanksgiving dinner with her son.

“I don’t want to unknowingly

make anyone sick. But I also don’t want to miss this special event for my only daughter,” she said.

Stephen Browning, a retired executive from Tucson, Arizona, will be flying to Seattle for Thanksgiving with his sister.

The celebration usually has up to 30 people; this year only 10 are coming, and everyone was asked to get a coronavirus test.

He doesn’t plan on removing his mask to eat or drink on the flight.

“This is my first flight since December 2019, so yes, I have concerns,” he said. “But I think most airlines are acting responsibly now and enforcing masks on

all flights.”

Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged Americans not to travel or spend the holiday with people outside their household.

New cases of the virus in the U.S. have rocketed to all-time highs, averaging more than 170,000 per day, and deaths have soared to over 1,500 a day, the highest level since the spring.

The virus is blamed for more than a quarter-million deaths in the U.S. and over 12 million confirmed infections.

The election results are now official and North Bend will have a new mayor this week.

Coos County Clerk Debbie Heller certified the election results Friday, officially making Jessica Engelke the first woman elected as mayor of North Bend.

The official results show Engelke received 2,572 votes, or 52.58 percent of those cast, while James Rose received 2,293 votes or 46.87 percent.

On election night, Engelke told The World she was thrilled to be chosen by the voters.

“I am thrilled to be part of history and these landmark moments as the first female mayor of North Bend,” she said. “I am honored to be elected as North Bend’s mayor. Although we have some challenges ahead, we have just as much opportunity. I truly feel we are on the tipping point of something amazing. I am thrilled to serve the community where I grew up and now am raising my children.”

Engelke’s move to mayor will be just one of many changes on the council. Three new council members were also elected, and the council will have to choose a

NB Council to consider Jordan Cove extension NORTH BEND — An unclear provision of the North Bend City Code and its implications for the Jordan Cove liquefied natural gas pipeline will be the focus of a public hearing Tuesday.

The city council’s first meeting with the new councilors and mayor elected earlier this month will consider a procedural hitch in the pipeline’s development: Does a one-year deadline to begin working on a project apply to certain types of city land use permits?

If it does apply, the project will need an extension — the work hasn’t begun yet as crews wait for state and federal permits, as well as a Land Use Board of Appeals action, to be resolved, project representatives wrote in a request to the city.

Oregon Revenue Forecast shows encouragement JEREMY C. RUARK

jruark@countrymedia.net

While the COVID-19 pandemic has caused deep economic impacts across the state, the latest Oregon Revenue Forecast suggests an improving outlook.

“Corporate excise tax collections, lottery sales and taxes on investment forms of income have shown the strongest recoveries,” according to the Oregon Revenue Forecast executive summary.

“While those sources stand out, all major forms of revenue have bounced back, including labor-related income taxes.”

Governor Kate Brown issued the following statement Wednesday, Nov. 18, about the state’s November revenue forecast: “Today’s forecast projects relatively stable state revenues,” Brown said. “While this provides some sense of relief in uncertain times, we know that the sacrifices Oregon’s businesses are making

right now to prevent the rapid community spread of COVID-19 will not be reflected until the next revenue forecast is released in January.

“We continue to face uncertainty about Oregon’s economy moving forward. What is abundantly clear, however, is that our state — like so many others across the country — needs another round of federal stimulus money. This is a worldwide public health crisis, and it demands a coordinated, national response.

And we simply cannot wait until Congress convenes in January.

“Our workers who are facing unemployment and the discontinuation of federal benefits programs at the end of the year — and employers who have had to close businesses for the betterment of public health — need help. And they need it right now.

“I am calling on Congress to put aside their partisan differences and

deliver on a coronavirus relief package, including another round of Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation and an extension of the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program and the Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation program.

There is no time to waste.

We urgently need congressional action to provide direct help to local governments, businesses and families so that we can all continue to provide critical services to Oregonians during this crisis.

“In addition, this year’s wildfires have burned over 4,000 homes and structures in communities across Oregon. The state faces significant costs as we work to remove debris and rebuild wildfire-impacted communities. We cannot recover from these fires alone — we will need substantial federal support.

“I remain committed to exploring additional state-level solutions to assist Oregonians and Oregon’s businesses, especially those that have been hard hit by the pandemic, including the hospitality industry, small businesses, and women, Black, Indigenous, People of Color and Tribal-owned and operated businesses.

“I also remain committed to making prudent financial decisions and to position our state to manage unforeseen economic challenges that may come our way.”

Reaction Oregon House Speaker Tina Kotek is calling for Gov. Brown to declare a catastrophic disaster and convene a special session.

“The COVID-19 pandemic is raging like never before in Oregon. Our economic recovery is fully dependent on getting this virus under control. As the state’s budget situation has stabilized and since Congress is unlikely to pass

Happy Thanksgiving from our families to yours

another relief package this year, I urge the governor to declare a catastrophic disaster so the legislature can convene a remote special session in December.

“We need to utilize some portion of the state’s reserves as soon as possible to help struggling Oregonians and small businesses through the winter months.

I am particularly interested in seeing the state spend $100 million to keep Oregonians housed and stabilize the rental market as the pandemic continues into 2021.”

House Republican Leader Christine Drazan said if the state wants to see the economy improve, leaders must lift the “freeze.”

“Today’s forecast shows that our state economy is stable, but this is not a reflection of reality for most Oregonians who have been impacted by these shutdowns,” Drazan said.

“The most recent ‘freeze’ will hurt Oregonians and business owners and make an already tenuous recovery even harder for families. Now more than ever we must protect jobs, support business growth, manage our reserves and control spending to ensure a long-term recovery for all of Oregon.”

The following is the executive summary of the Oregon Revenue Forecast prepared by the Oregon Department of Administrative Services.

Executive Summary While the economic recovery continues, the virus remains in control.

Expectations were already that growth would slow noticeably over the colder, wetter months ahead.

The latest surge in COVID cases all but ensures it. Businesses and consumers are likely to pull back out of fear of the virus, and more restrictive public health policies are being implemented so the health care system does not breach capacity. When the weak labor market and spreading virus is

combined with months of federal inaction regarding both the pandemic and the economy, it brings the recovery to its most challenging point yet.

Even so, expectations remain that the economic expansion will endure.

The recovery will be faster overall than in past severe recessions. This is due to a key assumption regarding a widely available medical treatment by next fall.

After that, economic growth should accelerate. Schools will reopen, workers will return to the office in greater numbers, and travel and tourism will pick up. With the end of the pandemic likely in sight, the key macroeconomic risk remains minimizing the amount of permanent damage done the economy in the meantime. As such, additional federal aid to support small businesses and the laid off workers who face dim job prospects until the pandemic is over will ensure the recovery is faster, and disparities do not widen.

Oregon’s economy is expected to return to health by mid-2023.

Oregon’s primary revenue sources have tracked very closely with expectations since the previous forecast was released.

Even so, a considerable amount of uncertainty remains due to the virus and government policy responses. Despite the uncertainty, general fund revenue collections have been surprisingly healthy since the recession began.

Total spending and income have been propped by the first round of federal fiscal aid. Also, the fact that high-income households have been relatively spared so far has supported tax collections.

Corporate excise tax collections, lottery sales and taxes on investment forms of income have shown the strongest recoveries. While those sources stand out, all major forms of revenue have bounced back, including labor-related income

taxes. In fact, given the extraordinary growth, a personal income tax kicker for the current biennium is not out of the question, although it would take a big April 2021 tax season to get there.

Oregon’s budget process for the next biennium is getting started next month with the release of the Governor’s Recommended Budget. Oregon’s primary revenue sources are expected to grow by a 5% during the 2021-23 budget period. The losses of jobs and business income due to the recession have yet to completely flow through to tax collections.

Such growth is quite modest from an historical perspective, and not sufficient to keep up with the rising cost of providing public services. Should the baseline outlook come to pass, state resources will have remained roughly unchanged for three budget periods, while Oregon’s population and prices will have continued to grow.

It is not unheard of for Oregon’s tax revenues to remain flat for several years. The 1991 recession and recovery provides the most recent example.

That said, the typical recession in Oregon has brought with it a much larger swing in revenue collections. Significant risk to the revenue outlook remains.

While the revenue outlook is uncertain, Oregon is in a better position than in the past to manage this risk.

Encouragingly, Oregon has saved a larger amount of reserve funds than ever before. Automatic deposits into Oregon’s Rainy Day Fund and Education Stability Fund throughout the long expansion have added up.

Oregon’s budget writers have never had access to significant reserve funds during past recessions.

Although today’s reserves will not cover all of the likely shortfall caused by a recession, they are large enough to ease much of the pain.

Oregon has more than 1,500 new virus cases The World

The World PORTLAND — Oregon topped 1,500 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 both Saturday and Sunday, setting new oneday records each day, the Oregon Health Authority reported.

The state reported 1,517 new cases and one new death Sunday after reporting 1,509 new cases and seven more deaths Saturday.

When combined with the 1,306 new cases reported Friday, it marked three straight days the state has had new oneday highs in reported cases. Four new deaths were reported Friday.

“Oregon is on a steep and stark slope of rising coronavirus cases,” OHA Director Patrick Allen said. “But we aren’t powerless in the face of this virus. Because it depends on us to slow the spread. Your choices

make a difference.

“Local health officials in every part of the state have investigated outbreaks that started with get-togethers that seemed innocent at the time, but led to many people getting sick, and in some cases, hospitalizations and deaths.”

Allen repeated pleas last week by state officials for Oregon residents to take care this holiday week.

“This Thanksgiving, cancel any plans you have to celebrate indoors with large groups of family and friends,” he said. “The safest, wisest and most caring way to protect the people you love is to keep your Thanksgiving dinner small and limited to no more than one other household beside your own. Keep the holidays a time to remember, not a time to regret.”

Coos County had

23 new cases over the weekend, while Curry County had nine and Douglas County 86.

Wheeler County, which has had by far the fewest cases in the state, reported its second case Saturday. In all, 33 of Oregon’s 36 counties had new cases over the weekend. Only Gilliam, Sherman and Wallowa counties did not. Grant County, another in the eastern part of the state, nearly doubled its count since the start of the pandemic with a total of 53 new cases over the weekend.

As of 12:01 a.m.

Sunday, the state had 65,170 total cases and 820 deaths.

The new cases Friday were in the following counties: Baker (8), Benton (15), Clackamas (78), Clatsop (9), Columbia (20), Coos (8), Crook (2), Curry (5), Deschutes (60), Douglas (39), Grant (27), Harney (4), Hood

The new cases Saturday were in the following counties: Baker (9), Benton (22), Clackamas (122), Clatsop (5), Columbia (10), Coos (6), Crook (3), Curry (4), Deschutes (35), Douglas (37), Grant (11), Harney (3), Hood River (6), Jackson (63), Jefferson (8), Josephine (16), Klamath (20), Lake (7), Lane (87), Lincoln (4), Linn (45), Malheur (27), Marion (124), Morrow (10), Multnomah (414), Polk (42), Umatilla (40), Union (31), Wasco (14), Washington (223), Wheeler (1), and Yamhill (60).

Community Thanksgiving Meal will be a drive-through event The World The 35th annual Community Thanksgiving Meal will be held on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26, at the North Bend Community Center in drive-through fashion.

The event is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the community center, located at 2222 Broadway Ave. in

North Bend.

People are asked to access the community center from Madrona Street, following the signs to the back parking lot.

When it is their turn, each family will be handed a meal without leaving their car. They are asked to wear masks.

There is no charge for the meal, though dona-

tions will be accepted.

A few more volunteers are needed to package and deliver meals and help clean up.

Those interested can send an email to CoosFood@mail.com.

The Coos Food Cupboard serves Coos County’s individuals and families who need some food when their money

runs out at the end of the month, officials said. Increasingly, they are seeing new clients who need assistance from being relocated due to fires or loss of jobs.

“For 35 years we have served the Thanksgiving meal to anyone with local support from churches and businesses,” they said.

Officials recommend small, distanced Thanksgiving gatherings this year ZACK DEMARS The World

With the county’s COVID-19 case numbers going in the “wrong direction,” local health officials are encouraging residents to limit the size and makeup of their Thanksgiving gatherings.

“Even one household is going to reduce the spread exponentially,” Becky Fairhurst, a case investigator with Coos Health & Wellness, told a press conference Monday.

“That would be making a difference.”

While gatherings of family and friends are time-honored holiday traditions, they’re also where people start to forget about some key COVID-19 precautions more than they would in public spaces.

“That’s why I think we see a significant number of cases that stem from these gatherings, is because we let our guard down, we’re comfortable in that situation,” said Eric

Gleason, CHW’s assistant director.

The Oregon Health Authority recommends keeping Thanksgiving gatherings limited to two households, with a maximum of six people. Even around trusted friends and family members, Gleason advises maintaining social distance, regular hand-washing and wearing face coverings while together.

“We’re uncomfortable when we go to the gas station, or when we have to get out and go to a store where we don’t know the people that are in there,” Gleason said. “And that’s actually less likely to get

you sick than the people that you are comfortable with.”

Even a single case of the virus at a gathering can have an impact — especially if a gathering is a large group or has highrisk attendees, Gleason said.

What’s more, an increase in cases in the community impacts CHW’s ability to conduct contact tracing.

Fairhurst said it “wouldn’t take a whole lot more” COVID-19 spread before CHW wouldn’t be able to do all of the case investigation that it feels is necessary to control the spread.

Cases impact schools, too: Last week’s metrics

put the county above the rate that allows school districts to open more in-person classes, and more increases could push reopenings further down the line. (Metrics for the week of Nov. 23 weren’t released by publication time.)

Still, Gleason said the choice to have smaller, safer gatherings is an individual one.

“So, does it make sense to have a smaller gathering? Enjoy the holiday in whatever fashion you can based on those stipulations, and know that you get to spend another one with (loved ones) later?”

Gleason said. “Or do you gamble?”

Coos County saw 12 new COVID-19 cases over the weekend, bringing it to 390 cases since the pandemic began.

Three in the county are currently hospitalized with the virus.

Since the beginning of November, the county has already reported 125 cases of the virus. October saw 101 cases of the virus.

#Celebrateag this holiday season

By Anne Marie Moss

Oregon Farm Bureau communications director

Thanksgiving is all about making time to reflect on the many things in life for which we are grateful. In conversations around the dinner table, Oregon Farm Bureau urges readers to remember the farm and ranch families who grew the food you’ll be enjoying not only on Thanksgiving day, but all year long.

While Oregon isn’t a major producer of turkeys, we do specialize in beef cattle; cattle and calves rank as Oregon’s #3 top agricultural commodity by production value, drawing in over $625 million a year.

Your holiday dining will almost certainly feature other prominent Oregon ag products. Oregon is Number 1 in the nation for producing hazelnuts and Dungeness crab; Number 2 for pears and onions; Number 3 for cranberries; and Number 4 for green peas and potatoes. Milk is Oregon’s Number 4 top ag commodity, valuing at $552 million, and is used to create a host of delicious dairy products.

You’ll #CelebrateAg when you raise a toast during the holidays. Oregon-grown hops are to thank for many of the region’s craft beers, and our state ranks Number 3 in the United States for growing hops. The Oregon wine industry has surged over the past decade, now to 1,297 vineyards with 908 wineries. Wine grapes are the state’s Number 7 top ag commodity, valuing at $238 million.

Few things are more festive than purchasing a fresh Christmas tree. Did you know that Oregon is Number 1 in the nation for Christmas tree production? Because more people are staying at home this year due to the pandemic, there is expected to be increased interest in purchasing a live, fragrant tree that can be enjoyed all season long.

Beyond seasonal favorites, there are many other reasons to #CelebrateAg. For one, Oregon agriculture is sustainable. Through Oregon Farm Bureau’s Century Farm & Ranch Program, an impressive 1,235 farms and

ranches have remained operational, on the same land, and within the same family for at least 100 years, and 47 families have reached the 150-year milestone.

Agriculture is also family-based. Nearly 97% of Oregon’s farms and ranches — including commercial-scale farms — are family-owned and operated. Some are “corporate farms” that incorporated for tax purposes or succession-plan reasons.

In agriculture, “big” doesn’t mean “bad.”

Agriculture benefits the environment. The wide, open spaces created by farms and ranches not only preserve Oregon’s cherished landscapes, but also provide 70% of the state’s wildlife habitat.

551,000 acres of Oregon ag land are enrolled in the voluntary USDA Conservation Reserve Program, which helps improve water quality, prevent soil erosion, and reduce loss of wildlife habitat on private land. And, combined, U.S. agriculture, land use, and forestry are a net sink for carbon emissions, removing 172 million metric tons of C02-equivalent emissions from the atmosphere in 2017.

Whether for the simple pleasure of enjoying Oregon-grown food — or for agriculture’s countless other contributions to society — please join us and take a moment to #CelebrateAg this holiday season. ### Oregon Farm Bureau (OFB) is a grassroots, nonpartisan, nonprofit, general farm organization representing the interests of farming and ranching families in the public and policymaking arenas.

First established in Oregon at the county level in 1919 and the state level in 1932, Farm Bureau is organized in all 36 counties.

Oregon Farm Bureau President Barb Iverson comes from a multigenerational family farm from Woodburn, raising industrial hemp, grass seed, squash, vetch seed, hazelnuts, wine and table grapes, and operating the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival, which attracts over 160,000 visitors each year. Iverson is OFB’s 17th president.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Governor is acting like a queen Our governor has issued edicts to limit our travel, our worship and our family activities for Thanksgiving. Now she wants neighbor to turn in neighbor.

What’s next, an edict for us to go to where we will be loaded on cattle cars?

At some point we need to ask ourselves; are we free, free to decide as individuals concerning our God-given rights?

You know those rights we once cherish called life, liberty

and the pursuit of happiness protected by our Constitution.

Or are we to bow down to the edicts of someone who acts more like a queen than an elected governor sworn to up hold that Constitution?

As for me, I will not comply with tyranny.

Joe Wilson Gold Beach

We have work place Covid-19, and our Coos Bay mayor that states he does

not agree with the order and businesses that are resisting the order from our governor. Our disconnect will not end well if we don’t work with each other.

Our mayor is a public official, his opinion doesn’t matter, he is placed in office to protect its citizens. Businesses must protect their patrons, the loss of income is critical for them and our community but the loss of life is greater. Our community cannot lose anyone because of those who won’t protect themselves or each other.

taunts of “fake news.” From personal connections, I know how much the publishers and editors of these newspapers care about their communities and the work their staffs do.

The importance of local newspapers has never been more evident than in the past year. Even though the major stories of the year were national — COVID, the elections, the economy, racial injustice and more — the impact has always been local.

The reporters at your local newspaper are your neighbors.

They are part of your community, and I know that they care about what happens there. They provide vital information to protect the health and safety of the public, with news about crime, local schools, local government, steps being taken to address the spread of COVID, local trends and more.

They’ve kept us informed with detailed information about businesses that are open, creative ideas for things to do at home, outdoor entertainment options and tips for addressing the challenges of working remotely.

And, they have performed a vital role in protecting democracy and informing readers during the often-contentious election process. In a season filled with misinformation fueled by one-sided digital sites and cable news channels, local newspapers were relied on to provide fair

coverage of the issues that mattered the most to readers.

This Thanksgiving, newspapers are also giving us a fun, new way to share our gratitude with those around us. They invite you to look into your heart and share the things for which you’re most grateful — health, family, faith, friends, pets or anything else — on a new, national Share Gratitude platform: ShareGratitude2020.com. You can even include a video message or post a photo to the site.

Local newspapers have supported all of us through this difficult year and now they need our support as well. Consider subscribing to your local newspaper, in print or online, to show your thanks for the job they do each and every day and to ensure that they can continue to keep your community fully informed in the days ahead. Thank you for reading the newspaper, and Happy Thanksgiving!

On behalf of its approximately 1,500 newspaper and associate member companies, America’s Newspapers is committed to explaining, defending and advancing the vital role of newspapers in democracy and civil life. We put an emphasis on educating the public on all the ways newspapers contribute to building a community identity and the success of local businesses. Learn more: www. newspapers.org.

Count your blessings this Thanksgiving holiday Dean Ridings

CEO, America’s Newspapers

Thanksgiving is a great time for counting our blessings and expressing gratitude. In challenging times, an attitude of gratitude is all the more important, and this year has been one of the most difficult for so many!

Nevertheless, we’ve seen many people in communities across our country who have risen to the occasion and gone above and beyond to serve their fellow citizens in the face of all of the difficulties and heartbreak that COVID-19 has wrought.

I’m grateful to the first responders and health care workers for their tireless efforts to protect and care for our communities in the face of uncertain and often dangerous circumstances.

I’m grateful to teachers and educators for their dedication to education and their ability to adapt to unusual learning environments. And I’m grateful to parents who, all of a sudden, have found themselves in home school situations, needing to remember the basics of math, English and science.

I’m grateful to local businesses for their dedication and perseverance and creativity to continue to serve their customers through curbside, delivery and online options.

I’m grateful to restaurants and grocery stores for continuing to safely serve and provide for their customers day in and day out.

I’m grateful to our houses of worship where we can lift our hearts and find renewed strength.

And as the CEO of an association representing the newspaper industry, I’m also very grateful to the daily and weekly newspapers across this country who put it all on the line every day of the year, and to the readers who support their vital work.

I’m proud of the work these newspapers do, and I hope you will join me in expressing your appreciation to them. It’s not easy hearing people challenge your motives with repeated

Taylor Swift wins top AMA prize again

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2020 | A5

The World

NEW YORK (AP) — Taylor Swift won her third consecutive artist of the year prize at the American Music Awards, but she missed the show for a good reason: She said she’s busy re-recording her early music after her catalog was sold.

In a video that aired during Sunday’s awards show, the pop star said “the reason I’m not there tonight is I’m actually re-recording all of my old music in the studio where we originally recorded it. So it’s been amazing. And I can’t wait for you to hear it.”

Last year music manager Scooter Braun — who manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande — announced that his Ithaca Holdings company had acquired Big Machine Label Group, the home to Swift’s first six albums. This month Braun said he has sold the master rights to Swift’s first six albums to an investment company; Swift acknowledged the sale on social media and said she would not work with the new buyers because Braun was still involved.

Instead, she headed back to the studio.

Swift beat out Bieber, Post Malone and Roddy Ricch to win the top award.

She also won favorite music video and favorite pop/ rock female artist, winning three honors and tying Bieber, Dan + Shay and the Weeknd for most wins Sunday.

The Weeknd lost artist of the year, but he still kicked off his all-star week as a big winner: Days before he’s expected to land multiple Grammy nominations, he won favorite soul/R&B male artist, favorite soul/R&B album for “After Hours” and favorite soul/ R&B song for “Heartless” two days before the 2021 Grammy nominations are announced.

“The last time I received this award it was given to me by the late, great Prince,” he said after winning favorite soul/R&B album. “And, you know, he’s the reason I get to constantly challenge the genre of R&B and yeah, I’d like to dedicate this to him.”

The Weeknd didn’t break character throughout the three-hour show with his gauze-wrapped face, which matched the vibe of his recent album and music

videos where he appears blooded and bruised. He accepted his awards and performed with his face wrapped in gauze.

Kenny G joined the Weeknd for his performance, playing the sax in downtown Los Angeles as the Weeknd walked across a bridge singing “In Your Eyes.” He finished the performance singing “Save Your Tears.”

The Weeknd was one of several artists who appeared live at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles for the fan-voted awards show.

Others recently taped their performances because of the coronavirus pandemic, though host Taraji P. Henson — who appeared live from the venue — said the few audience members sitting in the mezzanine practiced social distancing, wore masks and were tested for the virus.

Henson joked that A-list celebrities were in the audience, including Beyoncé, though cardboard cut-out of the singer, Jay-Z and other stars appeared in seats.

But a good number of chart-toppers were in the building. Breakthrough singer-rapper Doja Cat per-

formed and won new artist of the year and favorite soul/R&B female artist.

Grammy-winning country duo Dan + Shay beautifully performed “I Should Probably Go to Bed” and won favorite country duo or group, collaboration of the year and favorite country song for “10,000 Hours,” the latter two shared with Bieber. And Megan Thee Stallion — won favorite rap/hip-hop songs for “WAP” with Cardi B — performed “Body” from her recently released debut album “Good News.”

Bieber and Shawn Mendes kicked off the AMAs with a pre-taped performance of their new duet “Monster,” marking the first time they performed the song together.

It began with a strippeddown Bieber singing his recent hit “Lonely,” with songwriter-producer Benny Blanco on piano, and “Holy,” where background dancers wearing masks joined him.

Mendes, strumming his guitar, then appeared for “Monster,” which featured the twentysomethings singing lyrics about about fame and growing up as

celebrities who attracted massive public attention.

Mendes later sang his song “Wonder” during the show, which aired on ABC. Katy Perry, in her first performance since giving birth to her first child, gave a strong performance of the emotional and hopeful song “Only Love,” which featured a surprise guest appearance from Darius Rucker, who sang and played guitar. With flaming red lights glaring behind her, Billie Eilish sang her new song “Therefore I Am,” as her brother-songwriter-producer Finneas backed her on guitar. Jennifer Lopez and Maluma teamed up to perform their new songs “Pa’ Ti” and “Lonely” from the film “Marry Me,” which both of them star in, while Dua Lipa — who won favorite pop/rock song — floated in the air during her performance of “Levitating.”

24kGoldn and Iann Dior — who currently have the country’s No. 1 song with the smash hit “Mood,” also performed. The multi-genre track is the rare song that has reached No. 1 on both the rap and rock charts.

Other performers includ-

ed BTS, Lewis Capaldi, Machine Gun Kelly, Lil Baby, Bell Biv DeVoe and Nelly, who performed hits from his diamond-certified debut album “Country Grammar,” which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.

This year the AMAs, which typically awards one Latin honor, launched more categories in the genre.

Becky G — who burst on the music scene in 2014 with the pop hit “Shower” but has recently had success singing in Spanish and launching hits on the Latin charts — won favorite Latin female artist.

She used her speech to honor immigrant families.

“I proudly wave both flags, Mexican and American. And like many, many children and grandchildren of immigrants, no matter where they’re from, we have learned from the ones before us what sacrifice and hard work looks like,” she said. “And I dedicate this award to all of our immigrant workers in this pandemic; the students and immigrant families. It’s because of my family, my abuelitos, that I stand here today.”

(AP) - The U.S. Rhodes Scholars for 2021 were elected virtually this year for the first time as the coronavirus pandemic swept across the globe, though that didn’t extinguish enthusiasm among the 32 students who won scholarships to Oxford University.

The Rhodes Trust announced the winners early Sunday, which include 22 students of color. Ten are Black, which ties the record for the most Black students elected in a single year.

Shera Avi-Yonah, a 22-year-old Harvard University student, said she found out about her win Saturday night while she was sitting in her parents’ basement in Lincoln, Massachusetts.

“A wave of gratitude washed over me,” Avi-Yonah said, adding that she ran upstairs to tell her par-

ents. “I’m going to have a very happy Thanksgiving.”

The winners were chosen from a pool of more than 2,300 applicants — of which 953 were endorsed by 288 different colleges and universities to study at Oxford University in England.

Avi-Yonah is planning to study history at Oxford, comparing the libel laws of the U.S. and United Kingdom. She is a reporter at the Harvard Crimson, the campus newspaper, and has been the subject of several lawsuits for various stories - prompting her interest in the limits of press freedom.

Sixteen committees from the Rhodes Trust invited the strongest applicants to interview virtually.

The committees then made their selection of two students from each district.

Asma Rahimyar, a 20-year-old senior at

Southern Connecticut State University, is the first-ever Rhodes winner from that institution. The University of California, Santa Cruz was also represented on the list of Rhodes Scholars for the first time.

The daughter of parents who emigrated from Afghanistan, Rahimyar was raised in Trumbull, Connecticut and grew up listening to her parents’ stories of war-torn Kabul.

She hopes to earn two master’s degrees, one in forced migration and refugee studies and one in global governance and diplomacy, with an eye toward a career in international human rights law.

Rahimyar said she was still marveling at having won the scholarship 24 hours after getting the call.

“It’s all still very new and very surreal to me,” she said.

Hattie Seten, a senior

at South Dakota State University, was the first Rhodes Scholar from her university in 68 years. She said she wasn’t sure “if I would fit what a Rhodes Scholar looks like” and felt some apprehension about applying from a public university in a mostly rural area.

But she focused her application on what she called “a strong moral sense of character” and highlighted the leadership she had taken on campus, including navigating the coronavirus pandemic.

When the selection committee named her one of the scholarship recipients on a Zoom meeting, she said, “I was so surprised, I started crying. I would have never expected something like this.”

The winners include 17 women, 14 men and one nonbinary person.

Scholarship-winners

expressed incredulity at hearing they would be Rhodes Scholars, a distinction that has launched the careers of famous politicians, academics, scientists and journalists.

“I think I’m still in shock,” said Brian Reyes, 21, of the Bronx. “It’s nice to actually see my name on the Rhodes website and have it confirmed that it’s real.”

Reyes, a history major at Yale University, is the son of immigrants from the Dominican Republic. He is a student counselor who has been living on campus this school year and taking his classes online. He is planning on a two-year degree program in comparative social policy and a career in government or the nonprofit sector.

For many students, the pandemic has given new urgency to their research and career goals. Amytess

Girgis, a University of Michigan student in Ann Arbor, is writing an honors thesis on informal community aid groups that formed in Detroit.

She said there’s a disconnect between how political candidates operate, with so much time spent raising money for example, and people’s needs, particularly in low-income communities or for people of color.

Scholarship-winner Vijayasundaram Ramasamy has spent the last months as a policy advisor in the Kansas governor’s office, helping draft that state’s reopening plan during the coronavirus pandemic. The experience has given the 2018 Johns Hopkins University graduate a passion for public service through government, and he plans to pursue a master’s degree in public policy and a master’s in social policy.

DEAR ABBYBy Abigail Van Buren CRANKY FRIEND AT WORK MAY BE THREAT TO ADVANCEMENT DEAR ABBY: I moved to town not long before the pandemic and don’t have many close friends here. One of my best friends is a co-worker, “Ronna,” whom I love dearly.

Ronna has had an extremely rough past, including an extensive history of parental abuse that has left her thin-skinned and suspicious of authority figures. Because of this, she’s constantly butting heads with our management team and confronting them about perceived slights.

While some of the points she makes are reasonable, many are taken too personally or blown way out of proportion, and she tends to act very dramatic/livid about it.

I’m looking to move up in the company, and I’m torn between loyalty to my friend and the need to remain on good terms with our higher-ups. I’m also worried that my friendliness with management will lead to Ronna resenting or distrusting me. How can I safely navigate? -- IN THE MIDDLE IN COLORADO DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: Do not involve yourself in Ronna’s problems on the job. If you do, they will spill over onto you. Maintain your personal relationship with her away from the office, while networking and trying to widen your circle of friends.

From what you have written, I doubt that Ronna will be working for your employer much longer. Workers who react in a “very dramatic/livid” manner are usually laid off because their behavior is unprofessional and disruptive.

DEAR ABBY: I am having problems with my baby dad helping me with our 2-year-old daughter. I don’t like the idea of putting him on child support. I have tried counseling with him. In addition to

asking him to step up, I have tried giving him lists of what our daughter needs, and he still isn’t helping. Instead he’s asking me to help with his bills.

I don’t know what to do. I really don’t want to go after child support since he now has two jobs. I need his help, but I don’t know how to get him to contribute.

Any ideas? -- STRUGGLING MOM IN OHIO DEAR MOM: You have tried asking, you have tried counseling. The only option left to convince him to step up to the plate and fulfill his obligations as a father is to contact Child Support Services and ask for help.

P.S. You absolutely should NOT pay his bills!

DEAR ABBY: I have been asked by a close friend to officiate at his wedding.

I’m honored to have been asked, and it would be easy for me to get the credentials, but I am not comfortable doing it for personal reasons. I know it’s his special day, and he really wants me to do it. How can I politely decline without hurting our friendship? I don’t know how to word my refusal. -- NOT FOR ME DEAR NOT: Be honest to the degree that you can be without causing hurt feelings. Explain that you are honored to have been asked to officiate (which is true), but would not be comfortable in that role (also true). Then deflect by offering to support your friend in some other way on his special day.

The World

Biden picks several key members of administration WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Joe Biden is moving to fill out his national security team with a raft of appointments to top positions that signal his intent to repudiate the Trump administration’s “America First” doctrine.

The six picks announced on Monday, almost all of them alumni of the Obama administration, represent a fundamental shift away from President Donald Trump’s policies and personnel selections. They also mark a return to a more traditional approach to America’s relations with the rest of the world and reflect Biden’s campaign promises to have his Cabinet reflect the diversity of the American population.

In choosing foreign policy veterans, Biden is seeking to upend Trump’s war on the so-called “deep state” that saw an exodus of career officials from government. He will nominate his longtime adviser Antony Blinken to be

secretary of state, lawyer Alejandro Mayorkas to be homeland security secretary, Linda Thomas-Greenfield to be ambassador to the United Nations, Jake Sullivan to be his national security adviser, Avril Haines to be Sullivan’s deputy, and former Secretary of State John Kerry to be his climate change envoy.

The choices also suggest Biden intends to make good on campaign promises to have his Cabinet reflect the diversity of the American population with Greenfield, a Black woman, at the helm of the U.S. Mission to the United Nations and Mayorkas, a Cuban-American lawyer who will be the first Latino to lead Homeland Security.

They “are experienced, crisis-tested leaders who are ready to hit the ground running on day one,” the transition said in a statement. “These officials will start working immediately to rebuild our institutions,

renew and reimagine American leadership to keep Americans safe at home and abroad, and address the defining challenges of our time — from infectious disease, to terrorism, nuclear proliferation, cyber threats, and climate change.”

In making the announcements, Biden moved forward with plans to fill out his government even as Trump refuses to concede defeat in the Nov. 3 election, has pursued baseless legal challenges in several key states and has worked to stymie the transition process.

The stakes of a smooth transition are especially high this year because Biden will take office amid the worst pandemic in more than a century, which will likely require a full government response to contain.

Perhaps the best known of the bunch is Kerry, who made climate change one of his top priorities while

serving as Obama’s secretary of state.

“America will soon have a government that treats the climate crisis as the urgent national security threat it is,” Kerry said.

“I’m proud to partner with the president-elect, our allies, and the young leaders of the climate movement to take on this crisis as the president’s climate envoy.”

Sullivan, who at 43 will be one of the youngest national security advisers in history, was a top aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton before becoming then-Vice President Biden’s national security adviser. He said the president-elect had “taught me what it takes to safeguard our national security at the highest levels of our government.”

“Now, he has asked me to serve as his national security adviser,” Sullivan said. “In service, I will do everything in my power to keep our country safe.”

The posts to be held by

Kerry, Sullivan and Haines do not require Senate confirmation.

Blinken, 58, served as deputy secretary of state and deputy national security adviser during the Obama administration and has close ties with Biden. If nominated and confirmed, he would be a leading force in the incoming administration’s bid to reframe the U.S. relationship with the rest of the world after four years in which President Donald Trump questioned longtime alliances.

Blinken recently participated in a national security briefing with Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and has weighed in publicly on notable foreign policy issues in Egypt and Ethiopia.

Blinken would inherit a deeply demoralized and depleted career workforce at the State Department.

Trump’s two secretaries of state, Rex Tillerson and Mike Pompeo, offered

weak resistance to the administration’s attempts to gut the agency, which were thwarted only by congressional intervention.

Although the department escaped massive proposed cuts of more than 30% in its budget for three consecutive years, it has seen a significant number of departures from its senior and rising mid-level ranks, from which many diplomats have opted to retire or leave the foreign service given limited prospects for advancements under an administration that they believe does not value their expertise.

A graduate of Harvard University and Columbia Law School and a longtime Democratic foreign policy presence, Blinken has aligned himself with numerous former senior national security officials who have called for a major reinvestment in American diplomacy and renewed emphasis on global engagement.

Trump’s legal team cried vote fraud, but courts found none PHILADELPHIA (AP) — As they frantically searched for ways to salvage President Donald Trump’s failed reelection bid, his campaign pursued a dizzying game of legal hopscotch across six states that centered on the biggest prize of all: Pennsylvania.

The strategy may have played well in front of television cameras and on talk radio to Trump’s supporters. But it has proved a disaster in court, where judges uniformly rejected their claims of vote fraud and found the campaign’s legal work amateurish.

In a scathing ruling late Saturday, U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann — a Republican and Federalist Society member in central Pennsylvania — compared the campaign’s legal arguments to “Frankenstein’s Monster,” concluding that

Trump’s team offered only “speculative accusations,” not proof of rampant corruption.

The campaign on Sunday filed notice it would appeal the decision to the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, a day before the state’s 67 counties are set to certify their results and send them to state officials.

And they asked Sunday night for an expedited hearing Wednesday as they seek to amend the Pennsylvania lawsuit that Brann dismissed.

Trump’s efforts in Pennsylvania show how far he is willing to push baseless theories of widespread voter fraud, even as the legal doors close on his attempts to have courts do what voters would not do on Election Day and deliver him a second term.

The effort is being

led by Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal lawyer, who descended on the state the Saturday after the Nov. 3 election as the count dragged on and the president played golf.

Summoning reporters to a scruffy, far-flung corner of Philadelphia on Nov. 7, he held forth at a site that would soon become legendary: Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

The 11:30 a.m. news conference was doomed from the start.

Only minutes earlier, news outlets had started calling the presidential contest for Democrat Joe Biden. The race was over.

Just heating up was Trump’s plan to subvert the election through litigation and howls of fraud — the same tactic he had used to stave off losses in the business world. And it would

soon spread far beyond Pennsylvania.

“Some of the ballots looked suspicious,” Giuliani, 76, said of the vote count in Philadelphia as he stood behind a chain link fence, next to a sex shop.

He maligned the city as being run by a “decrepit Democratic machine.”

“Those mail-in ballots could have been written the day before, by the Democratic Party hacks that were all over the convention center,” Giuliani said. He promised to file a new round of lawsuits. He rambled.

“This is a very, very strong case,” he asserted.

Justin Levitt, a Loyola Law School professor who specializes in election law, called the Trump lawsuits dangerous.

“It is a sideshow, but it’s a harmful sideshow,” Levitt

said. “It’s a toxic sideshow.

The continuing baseless, evidence-free claims of alternative facts are actually having an effect on a substantial number of Americans. They are creating the conditions for elections not to work in the future.”

Not a single court has found merit in the core legal claims, but that did not stop Trump’s team from firing off nearly two dozen legal challenges to Biden’s victory in Pennsylvania, including an early morning suit on Election Day filed by a once-imprisoned lawyer.

The president’s lawyers fought the three-day grace period for mail-in ballots to arrive. They complained they weren’t being let in to observe the vote count.

They said Democratic counties unfairly let voters fix mistakes on their ballot

envelopes. Everywhere they turned, they said, they sniffed fraud.

“I felt insidious fraud going on,” Philadelphia poll watcher Lisette Tarragano said when Giuliani called her to the microphone at the landscaping company.

In fact, a Republican runs the city’s election board, and has said his office got death threats as Trump’s rants about the election intensified. No judges ever found any evidence of election fraud in Pennsylvania or any other state where the campaign sued — not in Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada or Georgia.

Instead, Trump lawyers found themselves backpedaling when pressed in court for admissible evidence, or dropping out when they were accused of helping derail the democratic process.

The World

Restaurant Association asks court to block freeze PORTLAND (AP) — The Oregon Restaurant & Lodging Association is seeking a court order from a federal judge to block Gov. Kate Brown’s “two-week freeze” that bans dining in restaurants in response to a spike in COVID-19 cases.

The association, which represents 10,000 food service and 2,000 lodging businesses across the state, argues the new restrictions

will cause devastating effects for its members and their employees, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported.

The association and the public policy group Restaurant Law Center filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Portland on Friday, two days after the governor’s new executive order took effect.

The order expected to last at least through Dec.

2 limits social get-togethers to no more than six people from no more than two households and limits restaurants to take-out and delivery only.

When issuing the freeze, Brown acknowledged it will be difficult for everyone. “We are trying to stop this ferocious virus from spreading even more quickly and far and wide, and to save lives,” she said.

As of Thursday, there have

been 60,873 coronavirus cases and 808 deaths from the virus, according to state reporting.

The suit says the governor’s order violates due process and equal protection, and that Brown has exceeded her power in issuing it. The association urges a judge to grant a temporary injunction that would bar the order’s enforcement, in whole or in part, while the case is

pending.

Leaders of the association and the law center said they hope Brown and her staff will work with them to develop “a more reasonable and pragmatic approach,” according to a news release.

“A blanket ban on indoor and outdoor dining is wrong and we believe the latest executive order in Oregon is also illegal,” Angelo Amador, executive director of the Restaurant

Law Center, said in a news release.

The governor’s office, through spokeswoman Liz Merah, declined to comment on the suit, but pointed to Brown’s announcement earlier this week in which she announced $55 million would be offered in financial assistance to support Oregon businesses who have been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic restrictions.

LONDON (AP) — Drugmaker AstraZeneca said Monday that late-stage trials showed its COVID-19 vaccine is highly effective, buoying the prospects of a relatively cheap, easy-tostore product that may become the vaccine of choice for the developing world.

The results are based on an interim analysis of trials in the U.K. and Brazil of a vaccine developed

by Oxford University and manufactured by AstraZeneca. No hospitalizations or severe cases of COVID-19 were reported in those receiving the vaccine.

AstraZeneca is the third major drug company to report late-stage data for a potential COVID-19 vaccine as the world waits for scientific breakthroughs that will end a pandemic that has pummeled the world economy and led to 1.4 million deaths. But unlike the others, the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine doesn’t have to be stored at ultra-cold temperatures, making it easier to distribute, especially in developing countries.

“I think these are really exciting results,” Dr. Andrew Pollard, chief investigator for the trial, said at a news conference. “Because the vaccine can be stored at fridge temperatures, it can be distributed around the world using the normal immunization distribution system. And so our goal … to make sure that we have a vaccine that was accessible everywhere, I think we’ve

actually managed to do that.”

The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine was 90% effective in preventing COVID-19 in one of the dosing regimens tested; it was less effective in another. Earlier this month, rival drugmakers Pfizer and Moderna reported preliminary results from late-stage trials showing their vaccines were almost 95% effective.

While the AstraZeneca vaccine can be stored at 2 degrees to 8 degrees Celsius (36 degrees to 46 degrees Fahrenheit), the Pfizer and Moderna products must be stored at temperatures approaching minus-70 degrees Celsius (minus-94 Fahrenheit).

The AstraZeneca vaccine is also cheaper.

AstraZeneca, which has pledged it won’t make a profit on the vaccine during the pandemic, has reached agreements with governments and international health organizations that put its cost at about $2.50 a dose. Pfizer’s vaccine costs about $20, while Moderna’s is $15 to $25, based on agreements the companies have struck to supply their vaccines to the U.S. government.

All three vaccines must be approved by regulators before they can be widely distributed.

Oxford researchers and AstraZeneca stressed they weren’t competing with other projects and said multiple vaccines would be needed to reach enough of

the world’s population to end the pandemic.

“We need to be able to make a lot of vaccine for the world quickly, and it’s best if we can do it with different technologies so that if one technology runs into a roadblock, then we’ve got alternatives, we’ve got diversity,’’ professor Sarah Gilbert, a leader of the Oxford team, told The Associated Press. “Diversity is going to be good here, but also in terms of manufacturing, we don’t want to run out of raw materials.”

AstraZeneca said it will immediately apply for early approval of the vaccine where possible, and it will seek an emergency use listing from the World Health Organization, so it can make the vaccine available in low-income countries.

The AstraZeneca trial looked at two different dosing regimens. A half-dose of the vaccine followed by a full dose at least one month later was 90% effective.

Another approach, giving patients two full doses one month apart, was 62% effective.

That means that, overall, when both ways of dosing are considered, the vaccine showed an efficacy rate of 70%.

Gilbert said researchers aren’t sure why giving a half-dose followed by a larger dose was more effective, and they plan to investigate further. But the answer is probably related to providing exactly the right amount of vaccine to get the best response, she said.

“It’s the Goldilocks amount that you want, I think, not too little and not too much. Too much could give you a poor quality response as well ...,’’ she said.

“I’m glad that we looked at more than one dose because it turns out to be really important.”

The vaccine uses a weakened version of a common cold virus that is combined with genetic material for the characteristic spike protein of the virus that causes COVID-19. After vaccination, the spike protein primes the immune system to attack the virus if it later infects the body.

Peter Openshaw, professor of experimental medicine at Imperial College London, said the finding that a smaller initial dose is more effective than a larger one is good news because it may reduce costs and mean more people can be vaccinated with a given supply of the vaccine.

“The report that an initial half-dose is better than a full dose seems counterintuitive for those of us thinking of vaccines as normal drugs: With drugs, we expect that higher doses have bigger effects, and more side-effects,” he said.

“But the immune system does not work like that.”

The results reported Monday come from trials in the U.K. and Brazil that involved 23,000 people.

Of those, 11,636 people received the vaccine — while the rest got a placebo.

Overall, there were 131 cases of COVID-19. Details on how many people in the various groups became ill weren’t released Monday, but researchers said they will be published in the next 24 hours.

Late-stage trials of the vaccine are also underway in the U.S., Japan, Russia, South Africa, Kenya and Latin America, with further trials planned for other European and Asian countries.

Researchers said they expect to add the half dose-full dose regimen to the U.S. trial in a “matter of weeks.’’ Before doing so they must discuss the changes with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The AstraZeneca trials were paused earlier this year after a participant in the U.K. study reported a rare neurological illness.

While the trials were quickly restarted in most countries after investigators determined the condition wasn’t related to the vaccine, the FDA delayed the U.S. study for more than a month before it was allowed to resume.

AstraZeneca has been ramping up manufacturing capacity, so it can supply hundreds of millions of doses of the vaccine starting in January, Chief Executive Pascal Soriot said earlier this month.

G-20 summit ends with support for vaccines DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Leaders of the world’s most powerful nations wrapped up the Group of 20 summit on Sunday, vowing to spare no effort to protect lives and ensure affordable access to COVID-19 vaccines for all people.

The two-day summit of heads of state was held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed at least 1.38 million people globally, with the world’s highest death tolls recorded in seven of the G-20 countries. The virus has wiped out hundreds of millions of jobs globally and plunged millions into extreme poverty.

The virus “revealed vulnerabilities in our preparedness and response and underscored our common challenges,” the G-20 said in a final statement that focused heavily on

battling the coronavirus, enhancing environmental protections and supporting the global economy.

The group vowed “to spare no effort to protect lives.”

The G-20, which includes the U.S., India, China, the U.K., France, Germany, Japan and others, also stressed the importance of global access to COVID-19 vaccines, drugs and tests.

“We will spare no effort to ensure their affordable and equitable access for all people, consistent with members’ commitments to incentivize innovation,” the statement said.

The G-20 expressed support for efforts like COVAX, an international initiative to distribute COVID-19 vaccines to countries worldwide.

The U.S., however, has declined to join under President Donald Trump.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters Sunday in Berlin after the virtual summit that Germany had given financial support to the COVAX initiative, but that more money was needed.

The G-20 statement did not directly address an urgent appeal by U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who said $28 billion in additional investment is needed for mass manufacturing, procurement and delivery of new COVID-19 vaccines around the world, including $4 billion immediately.

There is also concern that countries such as Britain, the U.S., France and Germany have directly negotiated deals with pharmaceutical companies, meaning that the vast majority of the world’s vaccine supply next year is already reserved.

followed for approval, it’s reasonable to apply the 12-month timeline.

The second decision, if the council finds the timeline requirement does apply, will be whether or not to approve an extension of the permit. The criteria for an extension include whether or not the applicant submitted a request and application fee before the expiration of the prior permit — criteria that have been met, Schnabel wrote.

The decision will be made at a public hearing, with the opportunity for government during the first freeze, Darrell’s Devils Food was not one of them.

Darrell said he applied for and received a grant from the state but has not received the money yet.

“We really didn’t get much help the last time,” he said.

While Darrell always knew he would one day open a restaurant, he became known in the Coos Bay area because of his work as a chef at Southwestern Oregon Community College.

At the restaurant, a table blocks the front door to keep customers outside.

They used that spot for indoor dining. Just about the time indoor dining would be expected to pick up with warmer weather, COVID restrictions shut down that option. Over the last few months, dine-in customers were trickling back.

on time to ensure a smooth transition for Madison students — an outcome that Trendell is optimistic about.

“We want to make sure we get through the junior high project without any surprises,” Trendell said.

The Blossom Gulch building and its temporary students aren’t the only moving pieces of the 2017 bond — the funding shifts too, Trendell said. The bond’s next projects, which include any money left over from the junior high and Madison upgrades, will focus on upgrades to the Sunset and Millicoma schools.

Madison students will move to Blossom Gulch starting next fall (in what-

ever form in-person school takes after the pandemic), and families will be contacted about the change and their transportation options. Trendell estimates the renovations should be completed, and the school reopened, in time for fall 2022.

The move will be an inconvenience in the short term, but Trendell thinks the renovations are worth that.

“It’s a sacrifice that we have to make in order to speed up the process,” Trendell said. “We’ll do whatever we can to try to make the inconvenience as low as we can and try to make it a special year for these kids.”

States that the chances of you encountering somebody that has COVID-19 is actually very, very high, whether it’s on an airplane, at the airport or at a rest area,” said Dr. Syra Madad, an infectious-disease epidemiologist for New York City hospitals.

The nation’s top infectious-diseases expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that people at airports “are going to get us into even more trouble than we’re in right now.”

The message may be sinking in for some.

Bookings in all of 2020 are down about 60% from where they were this time last year. Thanksgiving

reservations were ticking upward in early October but fell back again as case numbers surged. Since airlines have made it easier to cancel tickets, there could be a rash of cancellations closer to the holiday, said John Elder, an adviser to airlines from Boston Consulting Group.

In 2019, a record 26 million passengers and crew passed through U.S. airport screening in the 11-day period around Thanksgiving.

This year, the industry trade group Airlines for America isn’t even providing a forecast because things are so uncertain.

Because of tighter restrictions by many governments, air travel in other parts of the world has, in contrast, come to a near standstill.

In Europe, traffic between countries was down by 83%

in September from a year earlier, and that has only worsened since then because many countries imposed new limits.

Josh Holman and his family were planning to fly to Lake Tahoe and spend Thanksgiving with his brother, who lives in San Francisco, and his parents, who live in North Dakota. But they scrapped those plans.

“I see it as my civic duty not to spread this virus further,” said Holman, an assistant county prosecutor who lives outside Detroit.

Alejandro Zuniga and his fiancee, Megan Muhs, who live in Costa Rica, thought briefly about flying to Wisconsin for Thanksgiving to see Muhs’ family but decided against it. They also nixed a trip to the U.S. in December.

the kids fed. You really have to be open all week to do OK.” And with just the two of them working, the job never seems to end. Darrell’s Devils Foods opens at 8 a.m. with bakery delights such as croissants and other goodies. At 11, lunch begins with pizzas and sandwiches offered. Shanan greets customers and answers the phone while Darrell handles most of the cooking. He said getting ready to open at 8 each morning requires starting work the night before.

Despite the work and the challenges, they soldier on.

“This morning we had a couple of customers come just as usual,” Darrell said Thursday. “We’ve had some good sales this morning.

It’s just me and Shanan. It really is a mom and pop shop.”

At the Coach House Restaurant and Lounge, owner Jim Lorenz said he

has confidence in his team to make it through another shutdown. He explained that while many places struggled in the spring, the Coach House did pretty well.

“We stayed busy,” he said. “We had a core group that stayed together, and we did OK.” Lorenz said he is hopeful that the steady business will continue with a second lockdown, but he is not extremely confident.

“I don’t think this one will be the same,” he said.

“We had a little bit of business yesterday. We’ll be happy if we just break even.”

While Gov. Kate Brown said the lockdown and new restaurant rules would last for only two weeks, Folck and Lorenz said they expect it to last longer.

“I think it will go all the way through the holidays,” Lorenz said.

Ducks hold off UCLA

We have a lot of work to do, but they see some good (in what they are doing).”

“It’s helping the receivers run better routes,” quarterback Luke Nicholson said. “I like that you get to pass (but) I definitely miss the run game.”

Little agreed.

EUGENE (AP) — Tyler Shough and Devon Williams have found their on-field chemistry.

Shough threw for 334 yards and three touchdowns and No. 11 Oregon held off short-handed UCLA 38-35 on Saturday to remain undefeated.

Williams was Shough’s favorite target, with six catches for 123 yards, including a 19-yarder for a touchdown and a 49-yard reception that helped set up a third-quarter score.

“He’s been such an electric player in practice, and that’s showing in the games,” Shough said about his sophomore receiver who has been challenged over the past two weeks to contribute with receiver Mycah Pittman unavailable.

At 3-0, Oregon solidified its spot atop the Pac-12 North.

UCLA (1-2) had several players out because of COVID-19 protocols and contact tracing, including starting quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson.

Redshirt freshman Chase Griffin started.

“I will not have the opportunity to play vs. Oregon today for reasons out of my control. Frustrated I can’t help the team but they will still be great regardless! #GoBruins,” Thompson-Robinson posted to Twitter shortly before the game.

Griffin threw for 195 yards and a touchdown, with two interceptions. Demetric Felton rushed for a career-high 167 yards and two touchdowns, including an 11-yard scoring run that got the Bruins within three with 3:43 left.

“I think that was less about Oregon’s defense and more about how our offense was operating.

All the running backs did a great job and up front, we were phenomenal. And then as far as our playmakers on the outside, I can’t ask for any better effort as quarterback. We came out and played hard today,” Griffin said.

Oregon’s ensuing drive failed and UCLA got the ball back with 1:24 left. A penalty on the Ducks got the Bruins a first down on the Oregon 39. But Oregon went on to stop the Bruins on fourthand-12 to end it.

That was way closer than the Ducks would have liked.

COOS BAY — Nate Little thought there was no chance for football this year.

The Myrtle Point senior’s hopes for any competition dwindled as the COVID-19 pandemic continued.

“It thought it was over with,” Little said.

Then a glimmer of hope.

When the new school year started, with distance learning like the spring, Myrtle Point announced a plan for athletes to practice — fall sports on Mondays, winter sports on Tuesdays and spring sports on Wednesdays with conditioning for all athletes the other two days.

Then even more hope — Marshfield and North Bend were planning to spend the later part of the fall playing seven-on-seven against each other, and other schools were invited to join in.

So for the past three weeks, Myrtle Point has lined up against the much larger Bulldogs and Pirates, as well as against Reedsport the first week and Brookings-Harbor the first two (Siuslaw plans to join in next week).

“I’m happy we are doing something,” Little said.

So is Myrtle Point coach Ryan

“We’re having a blast,” Miller said.

Granted, the Bobcats have struggled some against Marshfield and North Bend. Factors play into that.

“This is a brand new system we’re learning,” Miller said.

“And we (only) practice an hour a week.”

The past couple of seasons, Myrtle Point has played eightman football and none of the players were familiar with the seven-on-seven game, which is a passing-only style of football.

“We’re learning a brand new playbook,” Miller said.

“We don’t like getting blown out like this. We have some games when we have success.

PORTLAND (AP) — Jimmy Maurer saved Jorge Villafana’s shootout attempt and FC Dallas advanced 8-7 on penalty kicks in the Major League Soccer playoffs after a 1-1 draw with the Portland Timbers on Sunday night.

Dallas will face the winner of Tuesday night’s match between the defending champion Seattle Sounders and LAFC in the Western Conference semifinals.

“I was frustrated. I felt like I was getting good reads on the PKs. I got really close on a few,” Maurer said. “I just knew that the guys were taking their shots so well, that I was like, `I’ve just gotta get one, I’ve just gotta get one, and we’re going to win it.’”

Villafana scored in the 81st minute to give Portland the lead, but 17-year-old Ricardo Pepi’s goal in stoppage time sent the match into extra time.

“When you leave a game to PKs it can go either way. It’s unfortunate because we did everything to be able to have won this

match, until that moment. But this is what the game is all about.

At the end of the day, you need to be good in all areas,” Timbers coach Giovanni Savarese said.

Portland was coming off a 1-1 draw with LAFC in the final regular-season game. Villafana scored the late equalizer in that one.

Against Dallas, Villafana took a short, well-placed pass from Diego Valeri and buried the ball into the far corner. It was Valeri’s 100th assist across all competitions.

Pepi scored on the rebound of his shot that hit the post three minutes into stoppage time. He’s the youngest player to score in the postseason for Dallas.

Valeri nearly scored at the end of extra time, but his shot hit the far post.

“We were making plays defensively and we didn’t concede.

And then as the game went on, we slowly just found more of the ball, found more space, and found the game, ultimately,” FC

Dallas coach Luchi Gonzalez said. “We gave up that goal, which was disappointing, but at the time, this group believed in itself, maybe when a lot of others didn’t. And that’s always going to be the most important, that internal belief.”

Dallas, which won just one match on the road during the shortened regular season, fell 3-0 to Minnesota United on Decision Day after a three-game winning streak.

The Timbers won the MLS is Back Tournament in a bubble in Florida over the summer. But Portland has been hit by key injuries to Sebastian Blanco and Jaroslaw Niezgoda. Blanco was the MVP of MLS is Back.

Dallas did not play in the tournament because of positive coronavirus cases on the team.

Blazers re-sign Anthony, Hood PORTLAND (AP) — The Portland Trail Blazers have re-signed 10-time All-Star Carmelo Anthony.

It was one of several anticipated moves that Portland formally announced Sunday. The Blazers also re-signed forward Rodney Hood, who was injured for much of last season, and signed free-agent forward Derrick Jones Jr. Anthony, a 17-year NBA veteran, averaged 15.4 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 58 games with the Blazers this season. He signed with Portland last November after being out of the game for a year.

Anthony has 26,446 career points, ranking him 15th on the NBA’s career list. Over the span of his career, he has averaged 23.6 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists. He was also on four Olympic teams.

Anthony played seven-plus seasons for the Nuggets before being traded in 2011 to the New York Knicks, where he spent sixplus seasons. He also has played one season each with Oklahoma City and Hous-

ton. The Rockets traded him to Chicago in January 2019 but the Bulls cut him before he played a game.

Hood, a six-year veteran, declined a $6 million player option with Portland earlier this week, becoming a free agent. He signed a new two-year deal with the Blazers but the terms were not made public.

Hood averaged 11.0 points and 3.4 rebounds in 21 games, all starts, with the Blazers last season before he tore his left Achilles tendon. He did not play with Portland in the bubble in Florida.

“Rodney played a critical role in our run to the Western Conference Finals in 2018-19 and was off to a great start last year prior to his season being cut short due to injury,” Neil Olshey, president of basketball operations, said in a statement. “Now fully healthy we expect him to make an immediate impact and are pleased he chose to stay in Portland.”

Sunday was the first day that most NBA freeagent contracts could be signed. Free agent talks

around the league opened Friday evening, and many of the deals that were struck over the weekend started becoming official Sunday.

Jones, a four-year veteran, averaged 8.5 points and 3.0 rebounds with the Miami Heat last season.

He played in 59 games including six starts.

Portland also formally announced that it had acquired veteran center Enes Kanter from Boston in a three-team trade. It is Kanter’s second stint with the Blazers, he was also with the team during its run to the Western Conference finals in the 2018-19 season.

Kanter averaged 8.1 points and 7.4 rebounds last season. Portland sent forward Mario Hezonja to the Memphis Grizzlies as part of the deal.

The Blazers also acquired forward Robert Covington from the Houston Rockets in exchange for Trevor Ariza, the draft rights to Isaiah Stewart and a conditional future first round pick. The deal was reported before Wednesday’s draft, but it was not

announced by Portland until Sunday.

Covington, a seven-year veteran who played for both Minnesota and Houston last season, is expected to start for the Blazers. He had total 115 steals, ranking third in the league, and 93 blocks last season while averaging 12.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.3 assists.

“Robert is an elite defender and consummate professional that will make an immediate impact on both ends of the floor,” Olshey said. “His versatility enables him to play multiple positions and his character and professionalism will allow him to transition seamlessly into our culture.”

Among the teams invited to play in the bubble in Florida, the Trail Blazers made it to the NBA playoffs for the seventh straight season but they were knocked out in the first round by the top-seeded Los Angeles Lakers in five games. The Blazers finished the coronavirus-shortened regular season 35-39.

The NBA season is set to open Dec. 22.

and sophomores.

“There’s some people in the community who have looked forward to this group playing their senior season,” he said. “We have two really dynamic groups this year. We have a JV group that scored on Marshfield’s varsity. That’s a confident group. I’m real excited about our future.”

As the coach, Miller sees the best of both worlds.

“I’m excited about this group of seniors,” he said.

“These guys absolutely love it.

“It’s fun watching these guys. I have a lot of confidence in them. And they’re

buying in.”

“I think we’ll get better as time goes on,” Little said.

Against Marshfield, Nicholson connected with fellow senior Enrique Camacho on a 40-yard touchdown for one score and the other TD was scored by sophomore Jacob Koser. Nicholson and freshman Billy Reynolds had interceptions for Myrtle Point’s only scores against North Bend.

Miller hopes the players are able to have a regular season in the spring, which is the current plan for the Oregon School Activities Association.

Meanwhile, the players are getting to experience a little of all three seasons through the fall. Two days before the football competition last week, they took part in the first of several basketball skills competitions scheduled by Marshfield and North Bend (those are on hold for the next two weeks because Gov. Kate Brown’s freeze bans indoor sports).

“It was fun,” Nicholson said.

And after the spring was canceled and it looked like all sports might be this year, that’s exciting.

“It’s something,” Little said.

“I just wish we were playing actual tackle football,” he said. “That’s the way life goes.”

The Bobcats like playing against the Pirates and Bulldogs, though.

“It’s better practice,” he said. “There’s more competition. We don’t have a scout team to go against (in practice).”

That’s changing, though, Miller said.

The Bobcats have a strong core of veterans, including seven seniors, but also seven freshmen

SAN FRANCISCO — Kelly Oubre is joining the Golden State Warriors to give the team backcourt depth in the wake of Klay Thompson’s latest injury.

Oubre was acquired in a trade with the Thunder.

The Warriors will send a conditional 2021 firstround draft pick and a 2021 second-round selection — via Denver — to Oklahoma City in the swap.

Thompson will miss the season after suffering a torn right Achilles tendon playing a pickup game in Southern California on Wednesday. He already sat out the coronavirus-shortened season recovering from surgery for a torn ACL in his left knee.

Cavaliers pick up McGee from Lakers CLEVEAND — Looking to replace Tristan Thompson, the Cavaliers acquired center JaVale McGee and a future draft pick from the Los Angeles Lakers for forwards Alfonzo McKinnie and Jordan Bell, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press.

The Cavs will get a second-round pick in 2026 from the Lakers, said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams had not announced the swap.

Tristan Thompson agreed to a two-year, $19 million to join the Boston Celtics.

Justin Holiday sticks with Pacers INDIANAPOLIS — Justin Holiday will continue playing for the Indiana Pacers next season after agreeing to a new deal.

Terms of the contract were not immediately announced but the decision means Holiday and one of his two NBA-playing brothers, Aaron, will be teammates again next season. Both played primarily as backups but held key roles in helping the Pacers make the playoffs.

VanVleet remains with Toronto TORONTO — Fred VanVleet agreed Saturday to a four-year, $85 million contract to remain with the Toronto Raptors, a person with direct knowledge of the discussions told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the contract remains unsigned.

The fourth year of the contract is at VanVleet’s option.

Hayward moves from Celtics to Hornets CHARLOTTE — Gordon Hayward is heading to a new home.

The Charlotte Hornets have wanted Hayward for years. On Saturday, they finally landed him, according to Priority Sports, the agency that represents the veteran forward. A person with knowledge of the terms, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal hadn’t been signed, told the AP that Hayward will sign a four-year contract worth $120 million. ESPN first reported the agreement between Hayward and the Hornets.

Rondo agrees to deal with Hawks ATLANTA — After helping the Los Angeles Lakers to the NBA title, Rajon Rondo agreed Saturday to a two-year deal with the Hawks, a person with knowledge of the negotiations told AP. Rondo became the latest addition in a busy two days of movement for Atlanta.

The Hawks agreed with guard Kris Dunn earlier Saturday on a two-year contract worth $10 million, a second person told AP. And Atlanta also agreed Friday with Danilo Gallinari on a three-year contract.

GOLF Streb wins playoff for second PGA title ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. (AP) — Robert Streb made an 8-foot par putt to stay alive in a playoff and ended it on the second extra hole with a pitching wedge that came an inch from going in, giving him a victory over Kevin Kisner in the RSM Classic.

Beavers get first win of season, edging Cal

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2020 | B3

The World

CORVALLIS (AP) — Oregon State quarterback Tristan Gebbia passed for a touchdown, ran for a touchdown and was on the receiving end of a score in the Beavers’ 31-27 victory Saturday over California at Reser Stadium.

Gebbia is the first Pac-12 quarterback since 1996 to account for touchdowns via the air, ground and as a receiver.

“That was definitely the first time I caught a touchdown pass,” said Gebbia, who completed 12 of 20 for 147 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions.

“That was pretty cool.”

Gebbia’s 1-yard touchdown run with 4:30 remaining, set up

by Jesiah Irish’s blocked punt, gave Oregon State its final lead.

California drove to the Beavers’ 10 late in the fourth quarter, but on first-and-goal Chase Garbers’ pass was tipped

by Hamilcar Rashed Jr. and intercepted by fellow linebacker John McCartan.

“Very unfortunate play,” said Garbers, who passed for 315 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. “Defensive back came free off the edge.

Tried to throw our hot route to (Trevon) Clark. Tipped it straight up in the air, hoping it would just go backward or off to the side.

But worst-case scenario, it went straight up in the air.”

Jermar Jefferson’s 65-yard run with just under a minute to go sealed the win for Oregon State (1-2, 1-2 Pacific 12), which opened the season with losses to Washington State and Washington.

“After I passed the second level I was like, ‘This game. We won it,’” Jefferson said.

Jefferson ran for 196 yards,

including a 75-yard jaunt on the game’s first offensive play.

Oregon State led 24-20 in the fourth quarter and had possession, but safety Elijah Hicks intercepted a Gebbia pass and returned it 30 yards to the Beavers’ 32.

The turnover led to Garber’s 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jake Tonges and a 27-24 California lead with 8:01 remaining.

Tyjon Lindsey’s 7-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Gebbia gave the Beavers a 24-20 lead with 13:35 left.

California (0-2, 0-2) gained 439 total yards to 360 for the Beavers, but the Bears will have to wait at least another week for their first win.

“It’s a very frustrating loss, it’s frustrating for everyone,” California coach Justin Wilcox said.

“There were parts of the game where we did some things pretty well. Unfortunately, the critical errors in every phase were too much to overcome.”

The Beavers take momentum into their annual rivalry game against 11th-ranked Oregon.

“The guys putting in the kind of effort to get the result they wanted, it will definitely help morale,” Oregon State coach Jonathan Smith said.

STOVER IN ACTION Marshfield graduate Cory Stover, a redshirt freshman, saw action on a number of plays throughout the game with Oregon State’s defense.

THE TAKEAWAY California: The Golden Bears’ first two scheduled games, against Washington and Arizona State, were canceled due to COVID-19 outbreaks and Cal

was much improved from last week’s 34-10 loss at UCLA. California hurt its own cause on special teams. Nikko Remigio’s 88-yard first quarter punt return was called back due to an illegal block, and he had a 90yard kickoff return in the third quarter negated by a holding call.

Oregon State: The Beavers showed they can win a close game. Oregon State continues to rely on running back Jermar Jefferson, who had his third straight 100-yard game.

Gebbia threw two interceptions and will need to improve moving forward if the Beavers hope to have any chance of upsetting No. 11 Oregon next week.

UP NEXT California hosts Stanford Friday Oregon State hosts No. 11 Oregon Friday.

USC overpowers Utah with defense Apple Cup canceled Trojans improve to 3-0 with 33-17 victory in Salt Lake City; Washington also stays unbeaten SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Kedon Slovis threw for two touchdowns and No. 20 Southern California rode a strong defensive performance to overpower Utah 33-17 on Saturday night.

Slovis completed 24 of 35 passes for 264 yards for USC (3-0, 3-0 Pac12), but the Trojans’ defense took centerstage, forcing five turnovers to stay undefeated and move into pole position for the Pac-12 South title.

Utah (0-1, 0-1) was the final major conference team to make its 2020 debut after coronavirus cases scuttled its first two scheduled games of an already delayed season.

The long layoff didn’t do the Utes any favors as they made critical errors and couldn’t get any rhythm going on offense. Consistent quarterback pressure by the Trojans and a rugged rush defense had a lot to do with that.

Cameron Rising, a Texas transfer, made his first start for Utah but threw an interception in the first quarter and then was strip-sacked

by Marlon Tuipulotu for his second turnover and got injured on the play.

Vavae Malepeai scored on a short run one play later to give USC a 10-3 lead.

Jake Bentley, a graduate transfer from South Carolina, replaced Rising but was often off target. After two negative-yard drives and misfires on his first four passes, Bentley used a 33-yard run to spark the Utes’ offense and capped the half with a 7-yard touchdown strike to Samson Nacua.

USC led 24-17 at halftime.

The USC defense, led by Ka-

na’i Mauga’s 11 tackles, harassed Bentley and kept Utah scoreless in the second half. After two comeback wins, USC’s first victory in Salt Lake City since 2012 ended without much drama.

In the second half, USC engineered three drives that concluded in Parker Lewis field goals. The defense did the rest.

The Trojans didn’t look particularly polished themselves and didn’t have a bevy of offensive fireworks.

Maxs Tupai sacked Slovis, and Nephi Sewell scooped up the fumble and took it 23 yards for Utah’s first touchdown.

Slovis hit Tyler Vaughns for an 8-yard score after a 42-yard completion to Vaughns that finally got the Trojans’ offense rolling.

On a run-pass option, Slovis threw a 10-yard touchdown to Erik Krommenhoek for a 24-10 lead.

The Utes have annually featured one of the Pac-12’s top defenses, but they had to replace nine defensive starters from last season. Surprisingly, it was the lack of offense that scuttled any upset bid.

USC snapped Utah’s 11-game home winning streak.

WASHINGTON 44, ARIZONA 27: Dylan Morris threw for 230 yards and two touchdowns, Washington got rushing touchdowns from three different running backs, and the Huskies routed Arizona 44-27 on Saturday night.

Washington (2-0) was thoroughly dominant, jumping to a 24-0 halftime lead and led 37-0 before Arizona finally found the end zone early in the fourth quarter. For a while, it appeared the Huskies could be in line to post their first Pac12 shutout since a 30-0 win over Washington State in the 2009 Apple Cup, but the Wildcats feasted on Washington’s backup defense in the fourth quarter.

While the Huskies defense stifled the Wildcats for three quarters, it was Morris and the Washington offense that showed efficiency and explosiveness that was absent in last week’s opening win over Oregon State.

It started on the opening drive when Morris hit Puka Nacua on a 65yard catch-and-run touchdown. He added a 20-yard TD pass to Cade Otton midway through the third quarter to give the Huskies a 37-0 lead. And in between, the Huskies got TD runs from Kamari Pleasant, Sean McGrew and Richard Newton.

Newton added a second TD early in the fourth quarter on a 54-yard run.

Morris finished 15-of-25 passing and his numbers would have been significantly higher if not for a handful of dropped passes. His TD strike to Nacua was his first career TD pass, but his favorite target was Otton. The Huskies talented tight end had a career-high seven catches for 100 yards.

Arizona (0-2) lost its ninth straight game dating back to last season — a streak that started with a home loss to Washington — and took a step back from last week’s loss to USC. The same offense that rolled up more than 400 total yards and scored 30 points on the Trojans managed just 66 yards through three quarters against Washington. Arizona didn’t have a pass play longer than 14 yards until a 30-yard TD catch by Stanley Berryhill III early in the fourth quarter. For the first three quarters, Arizona averaged just 1.8 yards per play.

Arizona quarterback Grant Gunnell was 27 of 39 for 259 yards and three touchdowns, almost all of those numbers coming in the fourth quarter against Washington’s reserves. He was sacked five times, twice by Zion Tupuola-Fetui.

Alabama is now unanimous No. 1 in poll RALPH D. RUSSO Associated Press

Alabama is now a unanimous No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll, and Northwestern moved up to No. 11 on Sunday for its best ranking in 24 years.

For the second straight week, the top eight teams in the poll held their spots.

The Crimson Tide received all 62 first-place votes after beating Kentucky 63-3, making Alabama the first unanimous No. 1 this season and the first team to do it in the regular season since 2018.

Notre Dame was No. 2, followed by Ohio State, Clemson and Texas A&M. Florida was No. 6, and No. 7 Cincinnati and No. 8 BYU also held their spots.

The rest of the top 10 was No. 9 Oregon and Miami.

Northwestern moved up eight spots after beating Wisconsin 17-7 to improve to 5-0. The Badgers slipped eight spots to 18th.

The Wildcats were last ranked this highly in 1996.

The year after their surprising run to the Rose Bowl,

coach Gary Barnett’s team reached a high of No. 10.

No. 12 Indiana dropped three spots after putting a scare into Ohio State in the Big Ten’s other top-25 matchup Saturday. The Buckeyes beat the Hoosiers 42-35 after leading 35-7.

POLL POINTS This is the 80th time in the history of the AP poll, which dates back to 1936, there has been a unanimous No. 1.

It was a rare occurrence in the early days of the poll, when college football was more regional. From 1936-66, only twice was there a unanimous No. 1.

Southern California was a unanimous No. 1 twice during the 1967 season, but not until the 1990s did the unanimous No. 1 become a common occurrence.

From 1992, when Alabama finished the season by getting all the first-place votes in the poll, to last season when LSU did the same, the AP Top 25 had a unanimous No. 1 on 67 occasions.

The unanimous No. 1 for Alabama is its 22nd overall, most of any

school, and its 21st since 2012.

IN-N-OUT Four ranked teams lost Saturday, but three of those defeats came against other ranked teams. Because of that, just one team fell out of the rankings.

Liberty took its first loss of the season, falling 15-14 at North Carolina State, and is no longer ranked.

Replacing the Flames was North Carolina, which moved back into the rankings at No. 25.

SEATTLE (AP) — The Apple Cup between Washington and Washington State scheduled for Friday was canceled Sunday due to the Cougars not having enough scholarship players available because of positive COVID-19 tests and contact tracing.

The cancellation raises the possibility that the in-state rivals will not play for the first time since 1944, although both schools say they are hopeful to reschedule if an open date presents itself.

“After assessing the overall status of our football program, we remain under the minimum threshold of 53 available scholarship student-athletes and cannot forecast a scenario that allows us to reach that threshold by the end of the week,” Washington State athletic director Pat Chun said.

The Pac-12 Conference announced the cancelation and per policy, the game will be declared a no-contest. But there could be potential options for playing the rivalry matchup at the end of the season should neither team end up in the Pac12 championship game.

Both Chun and Washington athletic director Jennifer Cohen said they will prioritize playing the rivalry game should there be an opportunity.

Ducks From B1

“We weren’t our very best today, and we know there are things to improve,” Oregon coach Mario Cristobal said.

UCLA coach Chip Kelly thought that with Griffin playing well, the Bruins had a chance at the end.

“I know in Pac-12 games you need as many points as you can so if you could get one, you know, on a tip or something there. We were just trying to throw on up to the end zone and see if we could get a tip and possibly make a play. But the defensive lineman slipped out, Chase didn’t have a chance to set his feet and the ball went straight up. It’s not Chase’s fault. He was trying to everything he could.”

Thompson-Robinson, junior, threw for 196 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 52 yards and another score in UCLA’s 34-10 victory over Cal last Sunday. Saturday’s game was originally set for Friday night, but moved after that game at the Rose Bowl game came together.

Oregon took an early lead on Shough’s 19-yard scoring pass to Devon Williams, midway through the opening quarter. The Ducks recovered a fumble on the kickoff return, and scored on the next play with Shough’s 32-yard pass to Travis Dye. Shough, who replaced Justin Herbert as Oregon’s starter this season, threw for 312 yards with four touchdowns, and had nine carries for 81 yards, in

“This is one of the best rivalries in college sports and every year we circle this game at the start of the season,” Cohen said. “We will work with Pac-12 to prioritize this game and look into any opportunities to play it should there be an open date for both schools down the road.”

This will be the second straight week the Cougars will not play and the second time this season the Huskies have lost a game because of coronavirus concerns with their opponent.

Washington State had its game at Stanford on Saturday canceled after four Cougars players landed in COVID-19 protocol on Friday. That put nine total players in the protocol as of Friday and combined with injuries dropped Washington State below the Pac-12 mandate of having 53 scholarship players available.

The Cougars are 1-1.

Their last game was a 43-29 loss to Oregon on Nov. 14.

Washington had its season opener at California canceled due to coronavirus issues with the Golden Bears. The Huskies — who beat Arizona 44-27 on Saturday to improve to 2-0 — are expected to be aggressive in trying to find a replacement game for this week. a victory at Washington State last weekend.

Felton pulled the Bruins closer with a 1-yard touchdown before they tied it on a Qwantrezz Knight’s 20-yard fumble return early in the second quarter. Knight scooped up the ball on a bounce after it was knocked from Oregon running back CJ Vedell’s hands.

The Ducks pulled back in front on Camden Lewis’ 23-yard field goal. Griffin converted on third-and-18 to Kyle Philips for 19 yards, which led to Greg Dulcich’s 32-yard touchdown reception that pulled UCLA into a 21-17 lead.

Just before halftime, Jordan Happle intercepted Griffin on the Oregon 42 and ran it back 58 yards for the touchdown to give the Ducks a 24-21 lead heading into the locker room.

Verdell extended Oregon’s lead early in the third quarter with a 4-yard TD run.

Brittain Brown’s 2-yard touchdown got the Bruins to 31-28. But Shough found Hunter Kampmoyer with a 12-yard scoring pass.

THE TAKEAWAY UCLA: Griffin had not thrown a pass at the college level before Saturday. ... It was Felton’s second straight 100-yard rushing game.

Oregon: Oregon wore new Polynesian-inspired green uniforms Saturday in honor of the team’s relationship with the Pacific region. ... Freshman linebacker Noah Sewell was carted off with a lower right leg injury in the third quarter.

Mahomes rallies Chiefs to win over Raiders LAS VEGAS (AP) — Patrick Mahomes threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to Travis Kelce with 28 seconds to play, and the Kansas City Chiefs avenged their only loss in the last 12 months with a 35-31 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday night.

Mahomes passed for 348 yards and led two go-ahead scoring drives in the frantic fourth quarter for the defending Super Bowl champions, who split their season series with Las Vegas (6-4) in dramatic fashion.

Kelce caught eight passes for 127 yards for the Chiefs (9-1), who are in firm control of the race for their fifth straight AFC West title — but only after another thrilling comeback led by their Super Bowl MVP, who bounced back from his second interception of the season late in the first half.

The Raiders led 24-21 on Darren Waller’s TD catch on the first play of the fourth quarter, but Mahomes led a 91-yard scoring drive midway through the period capped

by Le’Veon Bell’s first TD for Kansas City.

Derek Carr and the Raiders replied with a crisp drive ending on Jason Witten’s 1-yard TD catch with 1:43 left.

But the Chiefs’ powerhouse offense needed only 75 seconds to go 75 yards for another score, with Mahomes going 6 of 7 on the drive. Kelce got open across the middle for the go-ahead score.

Daniel Sorensen then picked off a heave to midfield by Carr with 19 seconds left, and the Chiefs kneeled out their 18th win in the last 19 games since Nov. 10, 2019.

Carr passed for 275 yards and three touchdowns in a strong performance, but the Raiders couldn’t match their offensive excellence in their 4032 win at Kansas City last month. The Chiefs have won five straight since that defeat.

TITANS 30, RAVENS 24, OT: Derrick Henry ran for a 29-yard touchdown with 5:21 left in overtime to cap another memorable performance against Baltimore, rallying Tennessee.

Running against a patchwork Ravens defensive line, Henry finished with 133 yards on 28 carries. It was his sixth 100-yard game of the season and put him over 1,000 yards for the third consecutive year.

It was reminiscent of Henry’s outing last January, when he rambled for 195 yards to carry the Titans to a 28-12 upset of the top-seeded Ravens in the AFC divisional playoff.

After forcing a punt to begin overtime, Tennessee (7-3) moved 73 yards on six plays to get back on track after losing three of its previous four games.

Baltimore (6-4) has lost two straight and three of four. Until the fourth quarter, the Ravens did a decent job of stopping Henry without injured defensive linemen Calais Campbell (calf) and Brandon Williams (ankle).

Tennessee trailed 21-10 early in the third quarter and 21-16 late in regulation before launching a 90-yard drive featuring the running of Henry and some precise throws by Ryan Tannehill.

But Lamar Jackson drove the Ravens to Justin Tucker’s 29-yard field goal with 15 seconds remaining to force overtime.

STEELERS 27, JAGUARS 3: Pittsburgh’s most dominant defensive performance of the season kept the Steelers perfect. Terrell Edmunds and Minkah Fitzpatrick intercepted two passes each and the Steelers steamrolled their way to a 10-0 record.

Rookie quarterback Jake Luton looked lost most of the day against the Steelers, who allowed 206 yards and finished with two sacks.

They celebrated each turnover by running into the end zone and posing for the cameras.

Ben Roethlisberger and Co. gladly shared the spotlight with one of the league’s most disruptive defenses. Roethlisberger completed 32 of 46 passes for 267 yards and two touchdowns. He found Chase Claypool and Eric Ebron for scores.

Diontae Johnson finished with 12 catches for 111 yards.

James Conner ran 13 times for 89 yards, showing some life for a struggling ground game.

Of course, it all came against one of the NFL’s worst and most dysfunctional franchises. The Jaguars (1-9) tied a single-season record by losing a ninth straight game.

The Steelers extended their sack streak to 67 consecutive games.

COLTS 34, PACKERS 31, OT: After allowing three touchdown passes and 28 first-half points, the Colts gave up only three second-half points. They also forced a game-changing fumble less than a minute into overtime.

Rodrigo Blankenship won it with a 39-yard field goal with 7:10 remaining.

Indy (7-3) did it with an oldschool combination: The offense that played keep-away, a defense that came up with two three-and-outs and a fourth-down stop late in the fourth quarter, and the key turnover in overtime.

Philip Rivers was 24 of 35 with 288 yards, three touchdowns and one interception in his 234th consecutive start, tying Eli Manning for the 10th-longest streak in league history. Jonathan Taylor had 22 carries for 90 yards in a wild game that included Green Bay scores in the final 10 seconds of each half; Indianapolis erasing a 14-point halftime deficit, then failing to seal the win because of five holding calls on its final drive in regulation.

Aaron Rodgers took full advantage of the second chance, hooking up with Marquez Valdes-Scantling on a 47-yard pass play. That took the Packers (7-3) from the 6-yard line to the Colts 47.

Seven plays later, Mason Crosby tied the game at 31 with a 26-yard field goal with 3 seconds remaining.

But Green Bay won the coin toss, Valdes-Scantling lost a fumble when hit by Julian Blackmon on Green Bay’s second play. DeForest Buckner recovered and four plays later, Blankenship won it.

SAINTS 24, FALCONS 9: Taysom Hill rushed for two touchdowns and passed for 233 yards in his first NFL start at quarterback, and the Saints got their seventh straight victory.

With 41-year-old quarterback Drew Brees sidelined at least three games with multiple rib fractures, Saints coach Sean Payton gave Hill the nod over offseason free agent acquisition Jameis Winston.

Hill, who started his career as a utility player with the Saints in 2017, looked comfortable running the scheme Payton designed. He completed 18 of 23 passes (78.3%) without an interception and used his all-around athleticism to run intermittently on scrambles or designed read-option plays, finishing with a team-high 51 yards rushing.

He had a considerably better day than Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan, who was sacked eight times and finished 19 of 37 passing for 232 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions to defensive backs Marcus Williams and Janoris Jenkins. Cameron Jordan sacked Ryan three times, while Trey Hendrickson and David Onyemata each had two sacks.

Kamara, Hill and Latavius Murray powered a ground game that netted 168 yards, which helped the Saints (8-2) sustain drives that consumed a total of 33:41. The Falcons are 3-7.

WASHINGTON 20, BENGALS 9: Top draft pick Joe Burrow was carted off with a left knee injury before Alex Smith rallied Washington.

Burrow, Cincinnati’s franchise quarterback, was injured early in the third quarter when he was hit high and low by two Washington linemen after throwing a pass. His left leg bent awkwardly, and he couldn’t put any weight on it, ending his day at 22-of-34 passing for 203 yards and a touchdown.

His season appears over, too. Burrow tweeted: “Thanks for all the love. Can’t get rid of me that easy. See ya next year.”

Burrow’s departure allowed Smith and Washington (3-7) to take over and move a halfgame back of Philadelphia for first place in the NFL’s weakest division. Just after Burrow left, the 36-year-old Smith — who broke his right tibia and fibula on the same field just over two years ago — led a go-ahead, 55-yard scoring drive that ended with a 3-yard TD pass to Steven Sims.

In his second start since that gruesome injury Nov. 18, 2018, Smith was 17 of 25 for 166 yards and had a pass intercepted after it was tipped late in the first half.

Washington rookie running back Antonio Gibson ran for 94 yards and a TD. against Cincinnati (2-7-1).

BROWNS 22, EAGLES 17: Kareem Hunt hurdled Philadelphia’s Jalen Mills on a touchdown run, Olivier Vernon stepped up with star Myles Garrett out with COVID-19 by getting three sacks and a safety for Cleveland.

Hunt’s leaping 5-yard score came shortly after a dazzling 54-yard run by Nick Chubb as the Browns (7-3) finally found

traction in their running game in a constant downpour.

Cleveland also got a 50yard interception return TD in the first half by second-year linebacker Sione Takitaki.

The Browns constantly harassed Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz despite playing without Garrett.

Wentz’s 4-yard TD pass to Dallas Goedert pulled the Eagles (3-6-1) within 22-17, but the Browns recovered an onside kick and secured win No. 7 — one more than they had in 2019 — under firstyear coach Kevin Stefanski.

BRONCOS 20, DOLPHINS 13: Justin Simmons intercepted Ryan Fitzpatrick’s pass in the end zone with 63 seconds left. The Broncos (4-6) not only prevented Tua Tagovailoa from becoming just the second rookie in the past 40 years to win his first four starts, but they sacked him a half-dozen times and knocked him from the game in the fourth quarter.

Although the Dolphins (64) didn’t announce an injury to Tagovailoa before game’s end, the lefty walked gingerly to the sideline after his final sack, by Bradley Chubb. On the play, Tagovailoa’s left leg bent awkwardly and guard Solomon Kindley stepped on Tagovailoa’s right foot.

Fitzpatrick entered with the Dolphins down 10 points and drove them to a field goal that made it a one-score deficit.

The Dolphins, who had won five in a row, had a chance to tie it after they turned away the Broncos at their 1. Melvin Gordon was just about to score his third touchdown of the game when linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel atoned for a pair of penalties on the previous play by punching the ball loose at the 1. Safety Eric Rowe recovered.

But Simmons clinched it after a long Miami drive.

TEXANS 27, PATRIOTS 20: Deshaun Watson threw for 344 yards and accounted for three touchdowns, and J.J. Watt defended a career-high four passes.

Watson’s two touchdown passes and scoring run all came in the first half as the Texans (3-7) built a 21-10 halftime lead. Watson and Houston’s offense slowed down after that to allow the Patriots (4-6) to get back into it. But a 46-yard field goal by Káimi Fairbairn extended the lead to 27-20 with about 3½ minutes to go.

Houston’s beleaguered defense sealed the victory with a stop after that. Watt swatted down Cam Newton’s pass on third down and heavy pressure from Justin Reid forced him to throw the ball away on fourth down to give the Texans the ball back.

It is the first time since 2009 that the Patriots will have at least six losses in a regular season.

It’s also the Texans’ first win of the season against a team besides the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars. And the Texans’ win gave interim coach Romeo Crennel a rare victory by a former Bill Belichick assistant against his former boss.

PANTHERS 20, LIONS 0: P.J. Walker threw for 258 yards and a touchdown in his first NFL start, the much-maligned Carolina defense earned its first shutout since 2015 and the Panthers (4-7) snapped a five-game losing streak.

Walker, a former XFL player, was made the starter less

than two hours before kickoff when Teddy Bridgewater was officially ruled out with a knee injury.

Walker did plenty well, connecting on a perfect 52-yard strike to D.J. Moore along with a well-placed 17-yard touchdown pass to Curtis Samuel. But he also had two terrible mistakes, twice throwing interceptions in the red zone, essentially hitting the defender right in the hands.

Still he did enough to win, as Moore had seven catches for 127 yards and Samuel had eight grabs for 70 yards.

Mike Davis ran for 64 yards and a touchdown.

Matthew Stafford, who played despite a thumb injury that prevented him from taking a snap under center all week in practice, finished 18 of 33 for 178, He was sacked five times as the Lions (46) were blanked for the first time since Oct. 18, 2009, his rookie season — although he didn’t play in that game.

COWBOYS 31, VIKINGS 28: Andy Dalton returned from a two-game absence to throw three touchdown pass-

es, hitting Dalton Schultz for a 2-yard score with 1:37 left to stop the Cowboys’ fourgame losing streak.

Dalton went 22 for 32 for 203 yards and one interception after fill-ins Ben DiNucci and Garrett Gilbert started the previous two games. After missing games to a concussion and COVID-19, Dalton directed an 11-play, 66-yard drive down the stretch that was extended with a fourthand-6 completion to Amari Cooper at the 19.

Kris Boyd stepped in front of Schultz and nearly picked off a first-and-goal pass in the end zone, but Dalton delivered to his wide open tight end two plays later. That snapped the Vikings’ threegame winning streak and kept the Cowboys (3-7) alive and well in the lackluster NFC East. They’re in a three-way tie for second place behind Philadelphia (3-6-1).

Dodging pressure all afternoon, Kirk Cousins completed 22 of 30 passes for 314 yards and three touchdowns to punctuate possessions of 75, 81 and 85 yards to start the second half.

Herbert, Allen propel Chargers to win over Jets INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — It hasn’t taken long for Justin Herbert and Keenan Allen to become one of the more lethal quarterback-receiver duos in the NFL. After Sunday, they can also add record setting.

Allen set a Chargers franchise mark with 16 receptions and Herbert became the first rookie quarterback with five games with three or more touchdown passes as Los Angeles held on for a 3428 victory over the winless New York Jets to snap a three-game losing streak.

“I didn’t think it was gonna be today. We just got it going.

Coach kept calling the number and Herbie kept throwing me the ball,” said Allen, who became the first receiver in NFL history to have six games of 13 catches

or more as the Chargers improved to 3-7.

When asked when he thought it would be a prolific day, Allen said late in the first half, when he was already up to 10 receptions for 108 yards (he finished with 146 yards).

Allen also reached a career milestone Sunday, going over 600 career receptions and tying Antonio Brown as the fastest to reach that mark at 96 games.

“He’s very rare to be that big and quick inside and we kind of took advantage of the slot defender with some good open concepts to him,” coach Anthony Lynn said.

Herbert bounced back from a rough game last week at Miami.

He completed 37 of 49 passes for 366 yards, and continued to add

to his list of rookie superlatives.

He extended his mark of multiple touchdown passes with seven and had his fifth 300-yard passing game, becoming the fifth rookie in league history to reach that mark.

Herbert’s 39-yard connection with Mike Williams early in the second quarter made him only the fifth QB in league history to reach 20 TD passes in nine or fewer games. It was also part of a first half that saw him have the most first-half completions (23), attempts (31) and yards (277) by a rookie since at least 1991. Herbert also had a TD pass to Hunter Henry in the quarter as the Chargers had a 24-6 halftime advantage.

“I think we had a great plan going into the week and we went out there and executed. Mike and Keenan stepped up big time so

it made my job a lot easier out there,” Herbert said.

Allen’s 13-yard TD in the third quarter to extend the lead for the Chargers (3-7) to 31-13. New York would rally to get within 34-28 in the fourth quarter on Frank Gore’s 1-yard run and Joe Flacco’s 6-yard pass to Chris Herndon.

New York drove to the Chargers 32 with under a minute remaining before turning over the ball on downs.

The Jets — off to the worst start in franchise history — are the 21st team since the merger to begin a season 0-10 and were the first team eliminated from postseason consideration.

“When we look at the tape, we’ll be able to evaluate that part of it to see if we could’ve done something different,” said

Jets coach Adam Gase of the early defensive struggles. “We were trying to change things up and make it hard. The ball was coming out pretty quick.”

Flacco was 15 of 30 for 205 yards with two touchdowns as he started his fourth game in place of the injured Sam Darnold. He struggled in the first half, including a pick-6 in the first quarter to Tevaughn Campbell that gave the Chargers a 7-6 lead.

“They are a defense that kind of spot drops and we felt like we could take some underneath just guaranteed completions early on in the game, and that didn’t happen,” Flacco said. “So I think in the second half, we just made the decision to kind of attack ’em and start to make it happen for ourselves anyway.”

This week in Coos County history: November 22-24 100 YEARS — 1920

Auto is struck by night train

North Bend is now champion Outclassed Marshfield on the football field Interesting account of game and training of team by one of the team The following interesting account of the football game Saturday when North Bend defeated Marshfield is written by an old timer at the game: North Bend’s 12-0 victory over the Marshfield eleven Saturday has wrested from the Coos Bay metropolis the county championship, held for the last sixteen years.

With an old style tandem formation the victors shattered the rival line and won by piercing the center defense. At no time from the first kick off till the final whistle was the outcome in doubt, Marshfield being clearly outclassed in every department of the game.

The North Bend eleven was in the pink of condition and played the entire game without taking time out or substituting a player.

With one more game to be played between Coquille and Myrtle Point, there remains no doubt about the championship.

North Bend stands head and shoulders above all others. Coquille and Marshfield seem to be tied for second honors.

Good coaching The North Bend coaching staff consisting of Sumner Bryant, assisted by a small group of veterans including Ben Hartsuck, expected a harder game. They were led to believe that Marshfield would resort to technical plays and have the trick box open always.

Instead they failed to show anything on that order. North Bend was coached to hit the line all the time and resort to the forward pass only when the defense was drawn in.

A few plays tried around end failed but the old style game won continually. North Bend had few plays but played them well and fought hard. All are delighted to have defeated so strong a rival.

The entire population is today paying homage to the football eleven that trampled over Marshfield High school Saturday.

Liquor charge is dismissed Menelo Camelo is freed of accusation Was arrested for possessing mash but no evidence to show that it belonged to him Charges against Menelo Camelo of Bunker Hill were dismissed in Justice Joehnk’s court today. The man was arrested some time ago, it being alleged that he was the owner of several barrels of mash which were found some distance from his residence. It was held that it was not on the man’s property and that it did not belong to him.

The case was set for trial today and Goss, Kendall and Murphy represented the defendant. When the case was called District Attorney John F. Hall asked for a dismissal of the case on the grounds that there was not sufficient grounds for prosecution, there being no evidence to show that Camelo had any connection with the mash found.

This amounts to the same as an acquittal and the case is dropped and Camelo is freed of all charges.

Cell Ireland’s car is badly smashed Was caught between rails of track near the ship yard in North Bend An automobile owned by Cell Ireland was badly smashed by the train from Reedsport Sunday evening. The accident happened in front of the Kruse and Banks ship yard.

Will Erickson was driving the car. As he was going over the crossing he attempted to turn around and the wheels of the machine got caught in the tracks and the car was held fast. Erickson was attempting to jack up the car so he could get it off the track when the train approached. Nothing could be done excepting to get out of the way of harm which Erickson did.

The train struck the car and broke it quite badly, tearing off two of the wheels and smashing the rear end. The damage to the car will probably be several hundred dollars. Erickson did not hear or see the train coming in time to flag it.

Nish chapman is star for Oregon Marshfield boy wins honors in Saturday’s game Was one of the principal ground gainers — Aggies made hard struggle near finish Parties returning from Corvallis where Oregon and the Aggies played a scoreless tie Saturday state that Ignatius Chapman of Marshfield was one of the stars of the game. Although the lightest man on the Oregon team, he was one of the big ground gainers, sharing with Steers in the honors.

The Aggies came near scoring in the latter part of the fourth period, having the ball within a foot of Oregon’s line when they were held for downs.

Steers, Oregon’s star fullback, played the game under a mental strain, his father having been seriously injured in an accident at The Dalles Friday night. He wanted to go home but could not desert his team and so remained for the game but caught a train for home a few minutes after the contest ended.

Concerning Chapman, a Corvallis dispatch says: “Chapman for Oregon, and Big Bill Steers were the individual ground gainers for that team. Steers made 38 of the 97 yards gained by Oregon in scrimmage, and Chapman accounted for 34 more. Hugh McKenna, the tiny Aggie quarter, running mainly from punt formations, however, was the individual star in ground gaining.

He totaled 42 yards by his endeavors.

May sue groom for school loss Beaver Hill School Board has new problem Think they are entitled to damages for Miss Rollins who quit school to wed A peculiar situation has arisen because a Coos county teacher got married according to the following which comes as a press telegram from Salem: Whether the directors of Beaver Hill school district No. 63 in Coos county have grounds for suit for damages against H.J. Redding of Grants Pass, because he married Miss Mary Rollins and caused her to abandon her school in violation of her contract with the district, was the somewhat perplexing question referred to J.A. Churchill, state superintendent of schools, by J.E.Z. Fowle, clerk of the school district in which Mrs. Redding formerly was employed.

According to a letter received by Mr. Churchill from the school clerk, Miss Mary Rollins signed a contract with the directors of the district to teach the primary grades for a period of nine months, starting September 6, 1920. After teaching six weeks she married and left the school, against the wishes of the directors, who declined to accept her resignation on the ground that she had been given the position in preference to several other applicants and should not have cajoled them into believing that she was acting in good faith when she accepted the position and signed the contract.

“As a result of abandoning the school the institution has been closed for six weeks,” continued Mr. Fowle in his letter.

“The directors at their last meeting unanimously adopted a resolution requesting that if in your judgment you think the circumstances warrant it, the certificate of Mary Rollins, now Mrs. H.J. Redding of Grants Pass, be revoked for a period of one year.

“I would also like to know if you consid-

er there any grounds for bringing a suit for damages against her husband for taking her away from the school, thereby depriving 24 or more children from the privilege of public instruction which is considered the pride and foundation of our government.”

Unique bridge being built Structure is suspended over Sixes river Is being completed by the Inman Mining Company operating in Curry county A bridge of unique character will be finished soon across the Sixes river by the Inman Mining Company of which C.C. Inman is the head and which operates in that locality. It is a 104-foot suspension bridge across the Sixes river near their mine. The bridge is of one span and is strong enough to carry the pipe line and also automobile and truck traffic.

Another suspension bridge in Curry county which attracted a good deal of attention was the one built across Rogue river near Agness. This bridge however was not such a large structure as the one which Mr. Inman is building.

Has large force The mine is working a large force of men. It is planned to complete an automobile road to the mine the coming summer.

The road will be an extension of the present road leading up the river from the bridge on the main highway.

Lighting plant Everything is in readiness at the mine for the installation of a small electric lighting and power plant. The machinery has been ordered and will be installed as soon as it arrives. Sufficient power will be developed to furnish all the purposes of the camp. Mr. Inman declares there is opportunity at the mine for a power plant of much larger capacity than they can utilize and suggests that in the future arrangements might be made to produce power for outside consumption.

50 YEARS — 1970 Coquille shades Willamina, 33-26 WILLAMINA — A defensive battle it wasn’t.

Nor would either coach say it was a game for the purists — there were lots of mistakes on both sides.

But it was one of the highest-scoring, wide-open thrillers in the annals of Oregon Class AA football playoffs.

And, most importantly, it was another green light for the Coquille Red Devils — a 33-26 victory over Willamina which sends the Satans into a contest Coach Andy Klemm didn’t fear will find his undefeated Sunset Six champions looking ahead to the next week.

After next weekend there will be on next week either for Coquille or Junction City, the combatants in the Class AA championship game to be played in Coquille — with date and starting time to be announced.

Barring a tie, only one unbeaten team will remain when it is over — both the Devils and Coach Bill Peden’s Tigers hold perfect 11-0 records.

“Junction City is a complete ball-club,” Klemm said of the No. 1 ranked Emerald Leaguers, “They do everything well. I’m very pleased and proud to have the opportunity for a shot at them.”

Whatever happens in the title game, the Red Devils showed plenty to get there. They trailed Willamina 26-19, with just over six minutes remaining and rallied, chiefly behind the clutch passing of John Van Burger, to cash in an eight-point, 89-yard drive to take the lead. The host Bulldogs failed on a desperation series close to its own goalline in the closing seconds and the Satans pushed in an insurance six-pointer.

This came after a grueling battle from the opening whistle. Willamina nursed a 7-6 first quarter and the score was tied 13-13 at halftime and 19-19 after the third period.

In the end, it was probably a 58-yard pass from Van Burger to Duane Peterson, which revived the Devils from deep in their own territory after Willamina took its 26-19 lead midway through the final period, that won the day.

Prefontaine is NCAA cross country champ WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (UPI) — Villanova University today won a protest of the finish of the 32nd annual NCAA cross

country championships and was declared the team winner of the event, for the fourth time in the last five years.

Oregon’s Ducks apparently had survived a protest by Villanova to take home the team trophy and the Ducks’ brilliant young sophomore, Steve Prefontaine, swept the individual title.

Prefontaine, his shaggy hair whipped by a brisk wind and his body lathered in sweat, took the lead from more than 800 other runners on the second milepost Monday and led all the way home over the six-mile Kingsmill Plantation course in a record 28:00.2.

Prefontaine finished about 50 yards ahead of Donald Walsh of Villanova, who was timed at 8 seconds behind the Oregon winner. Donald Kardong of Stanford was third, Gregory Fredericks of Penn State was fourth and UTEP’s John Bednarski fifth.

Prefontaine said the 49-degree weather was “great” for his style, perfect in finishing third a year ago, he said he “just wasn’t going to let anyone beat me. I came back to win it.”

20 YEARS — 2000 South Coast’s Music Man plays on DENMARK — There’s no doubt that the South Coast’s very own “Music Man” can still make the ivories dance.

On this Thanksgiving Day, as he sits in the cozy farmhouse in Denmark, near Langlois, with Wilma, his wife of 65 years, two rambunctious cats and an old piano, Charlie “the Music Man” Jensen has many reasons to give thanks — he and his wife are healthy, his family is near, the piano still gets a workout, and once again he’s a birthday boy.

In a happy coincidence, this Thanksgiving day marks Charlie Jensen’s 99th birthday and he will be celebrating with his large family, in what is sure to be a most musical gathering.

“I’ll tell you what I’m thankful for,” said Jensen as he thumbed through a scrapbook of his life that a friend put together for him back in 1981, when Langlois celebrated its centennial and the Music Man’s old band performed once again. “I’m thankful for my life, my wife, my family, and my friends.”

Jensen has lived in Denmark nearly all his life and year after year, he has inspired people throughout the South Coast region with his love of music.

Whether selling musical instruments, conducting high school bands, playing before audiences here and across the Pacific, or just giving weekly piano lessons to local children, Jensen has shared his zest for music and life with others.

Coquille man aids chamber with bright idea The holiday decorations on display at some Coquille businesses have a real hometown connection.

Local businessman Steve Britton is making the lighted red and green Christmas stars that will light the night sky at businesses and offices in Coquille during the month of December.

The Coquille Chamber of Commerce is selling the steel stars for $249 each.

Britton said he approached the Coquille City Council after he saw the lights the city was purchasing for the Christmas holidays.

“I thought they were nice looking lights when I first saw them,” he said. “When they were taken down after Christmas last year, I looked at them and found they had not been powder-coated. Some of the decorations were chipped and starting to get rust spots.”

Britton told the council he could build the same decorations with twice the quality for about half the price.

“I think I would be saving them about 40 percent of what they were paying,” he said.

Britton owns the Coquille-based Coast Aluminum Products Company, which makes most of the ski poles in the industry.

Britton said his two main retailers are Scott USA and Smith Sports. CAPCO also makes golf clubs and powder-coats snowshoes.

He said he will make the needed repairs and reapply the powder coating to the decorations when needed.

“This is my town. I was born and raised here, so I want to look after it as best I can,” Britton said.
