Survey says:

Healthy options lacking in Allen County A recent survey of Allen County gave sobering news.

For many, they lack access to affordable and nutritious food.

The survey’s results were announced Jan. 26 by Allen County GROW Food and Farm Council.

Among the findings: Nearly half of Allen County’s residents (44 percent) do not have access to healthy food, compared to 29 percent statewide.

Similar numbers, 42 percent, are dissatisfied with the availability of healthy food here, while 45 percent are dissatisfied with the variety of healthy food available.

Over a six-week period, LaClair Consulting Services worked with Allen County Grow to study the current food system within the county, highlighting major challenges and opportunities to increase food access.

Medicaid system snafus leave many without care

By ANDY MARSO KHI News Service

Thousands of Kansans seeking Medicaid benefits are being forced to wait months because of continuing problems with a new computer system and a change in the state agency responsible for handling some eligibility determinations.

The application backlog began to form in July when state officials moved Medicaid eligibility processing to the long-delayed Kansas Eligibility Enforcement System, or KEES. The software switch forced employees to use dozens of time-consuming workarounds to make the system function.

Then on Jan. 1, the state transferred all Medicaid eligibility determination for elderly and disabled Kansans from the Kansas Department for Children and Families to

This delay in service is highly detrimental to pregnant women, new mothers, newborns and infants.

Organizations that serve those populations say that since then, their clients have been improperly dropped from Medicaid, which in Kansas is a privatized program called KanCare.

But they’re not the only ones reporting problems.

Number of elderly in Kansas skyrocketing

By ROXANA HEGEMAN The Associated Press

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — The number of Kansas residents older than 65 is expected to double in the next 50 years, outnumbering children for the first time in state history as the population ages and more working-age families leave the state in search of better opportunities, a forecast released Wednesday said.

The study by Wichita State University’s Center for Economic Development and Business Research also projects a 21.8 percent increase in the state’s overall population between 2014 and 2064 as the number of Kansas residents reaches

more than 3.5 million people. That is slower than the growth rate for the nation.

But the biggest social and economic impact may come from projections that the state’s working-age population, ages 18 to 64, is expected to increase only 10.3 percent during that period.

Jeremy Hill, the center’s director, said that is worrisome because it is that body of labor that produces goods, pays income and sales taxes and generally drives the state’s economy.

“I did not anticipate that group to not be a self-sustaining as it had been in the past,” Hill said. “The aging See OLDER | Page A5

Pregnant women traditionally had little trouble getting Medicaid in Kansas. They are presumed eligible, and by law their applications are sent to the top of the list.

But late last month the Wyandotte County Fetal and Infant Mortality Review Board warned legislators that even those applications, which used to take seven to 10 days to process, are now taking three or four months.

“This delay in service is highly detrimental to pregnant women, new mothers, newborns and infants,” the review board’s community action team told the Joint

Committee on Home and Community Based Services and KanCare Oversight on Jan. 22. “If pregnant women are unable to present a medical card to initiate medical treatment, then prenatal care becomes delayed or nonexistent.”

Aaron Dunkel, KDHE deputy secretary, told the group he’d look into the problem.

KDHE spokeswoman Sara Belfry said via email that the department has about 10,000 Medicaid applications pending, which is up from about 6,000 prior to taking on DCF’s eligibility responsibilities.

Belfry said “a number of

factors” contributed to the backlog, including the open enrollment period for insurance through the healthcare. gov marketplace, which refers some Kansans to Medicaid.

“We continue to take steps to address and eliminate the pending applications for all Medicaid populations,” Belfry said. “We have added and redeployed staff to increase application processing capacity and continue to make system improvements to decrease application processing times.”

Nursing homes feel financial pinch

Meanwhile, since Jan. 1, Belfry’s department has instructed every Kansan having problems with Medicaid processing to call the KanCare Clearinghouse — a single 800 number associated with a small KDHE outpost of 336 See MEDICAID | Page A2

Governor wants more say in high court

By MELISSA HELLMANN The Associated Press

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas lawmakers are considering giving the governor more authority over who is appointed to the state Supreme Court, which has been under increasing attacks by conservatives who say it is too liberal.

A proposed constitutional amendment to change the selection system received first-round approval in the House on Wednesday and advances to a final vote that could come today. The measure needs from two-thirds of the House’s members, or 84 of 125, to advance to the Senate.

With major cases on school funding and abortion restrictions now pending before the high court, Republican Gov.

Sam Brownback and his allies are seeking to change its makeup. Last year, Brownback openly campaigned against the retention of two state Supreme Court justices.

The state’s high court judges are chosen by five attorneys and four public members selected by the governor.

The non-partisan committee then chooses three finalists, with the governor making the final selection. A proposed constitutional amendment

“Things don’t have to change the world to be important.”

— Steve Jobs 75 Cents

would change the system so that the governor would nominate justices, who would then be approved for the court by a majority of the Senate.

During debate Wednesday, opponents argued the move is drastic. Supporters argued that the current process is undemocratic.

Rep. James Todd, a Republican from Overland Park, presented the proposed amendment and pointed out that it’s the model used to appoint people to the U.S. Supreme Court.

“That model has served this nation well and will serve Kansas well if we adopt it,” Todd said.

Chief Justice Lawton Nuss told reporters that he doesn’t think a change to how justices See COURT | Page A5

Contacting legislators

Flickner said he had started contacting legislators about the problem.

Others are doing the same, after responses from executive branch agencies left them unsatisfied.

Coatney said SKIL repeatedly has been told that the KanCare enrollment problems will smooth out once the transition to the new computer system is complete. But she’s skeptical.

“I would say it’s gotten worse,” she said. “I don’t know that it won’t get better. It is new and there’s always quirks for new systems, but right now it’s hard for us to see that light.”

Coatney’s organization reached out to Senate Vice President Jeff King, an Independence Republican who represents SKIL’s area. King said last week that he’s aware of SKIL’s concerns.

Brannan and Colby spoke with Rep. Barbara Bollier, a Republican from Mission Hills, who said Brannan’s situation is intolerable.

“It is unconscionable for a cancer patient to be forced to spend precious energy worrying about insurance coverage when her efforts should be focused on fighting her disease,” Bollier said.

Linda MowBray, who works with Luxem as director of the Kansas Center for Assisted Living, said a lot of the

problems go back to the KEES switch. The state had time to work things out with providers who have residents who should be on Medicaid but hasn’t done so, she said.

“Everybody knew there was a glitch in the system,” MowBray said. “But instead of saying, ‘Let’s have some amnesty, let’s have some cooperation, let’s send this information out again and try to get it right,’ they’re now just rudimentarily denying claims.”

Luxem questioned the wisdom of providing one KanCare Clearinghouse helpline number for more than 400,000 Kansans on Medicaid plus thousands of providers.

She said KHCA will be looking for help from Rep. Will Carpenter, a Republican from El Dorado, who chairs the House Social Services Budget Committee.

Monger said LeadingAge Kansas also is looking to legislators for help because the executive branch has not responded quickly enough.

“We don’t want to be told, ‘Oh just wait another month or so until we work the kinks out,’” Monger said.

“This is actually a systemic problem that has been happening for eight months, and it does have actual human costs. So it needs to be fixed immediately, and I don’t know why they’re ignoring the problem.”

Kansas news in brief Teacher admits improper relations OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A former Olathe high school teacher accused of having sex with a 16-year-old student has pleaded guilty in the case.

The Kansas City Star reports that 33-yearold Jeana Marie Fleming pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful sexual relations on Wednesday in Johnson County District Court. Prosecutors say Fleming and the student had sex in December 2014 while she was a teacher in the Olathe school district’s alternative education program for high school students.

Under Kansas law, it is illegal for a teacher to have sex with a student at the same school, even if the student is above the age of consent.

In Kansas, the age of consent is 16.

Fleming is scheduled to be sentenced April 12.

Former bank manager sentenced TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The former manager of a bank branch in Manhattan faces a little more than two years in prison for embezzling about $277,000 from the bank.

The office of the federal prosecutor for Kansas says Melissa Vinsonhaler was sentenced Wednesday to 27 months in federal prison for embezzlement. She also has to repay $277,000.

The prosecutor’s office says Vinsonhaler pleaded guilty earlier to one count of embezzlement from a bank. Prosecutors say Vinsonhaler admitted embezzling the money from Kansas State Bank, where she was a branch manager, and making false ledger entries to cover up the crime.

Murder suspects left few clues to possible motives BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Less than a year ago, David Eisenhauer smiled confidently into a television news camera, discussing his athletic and academic aspirations for a weekly feature on high school athletes in the Baltimore area.

“I make my personal goals achievable or just out of reach of achievable,” Eisenhauer said.

“That way I’m always constantly striving to better myself.”

Now the subject of murder charges that have shocked those who know him, his university campus and the nation, Eisenhauer — blonde-haired, square-

jawed and gangly — remains an enigma, the mystery compounded by his brash statement to police after his arrest: “I believe the truth can set me free.”

According to police, Eisenhauer, an 18-yearold freshman engineering student and a distance runner on the track team at Virginia Tech, kidnapped and fatally stabbed a 13-yearold girl. Another freshman, 19-year-old Natalie Keepers, is charged with being an accessory before and after the crime, and accused of helping to hide Nicole Lovell’s body off a state highway in North Carolina, two hours south of campus.

According to neighbor Stacy Snider, Nicole showed off Kik messages from her “boyfriend” along with a photo of an 18-year-old named David, and said she would sneak out that night to meet him If Eisenhauer or Keepers had a dark side, they kept it hidden, according to those who knew them, who reacted to the allegations with a uniform sense of shock.

“When I saw her (mug shot) photo, I didn’t know who it was.

I thought that was the victim, because it didn’t look anything like I knew her,” said Stan Arnold, Keepers’ high school math teacher in

Columbia, Maryland.

“She always came across as being bubbly and happy and excited about her future.”

Some of the most pointed comments came from a Facebook post attributed to Gaige Kern, a friend of Eisenhauer and a fellow distance runner at Virginia Tech.

“The David I knew had his faults, but this is beyond the scope of imagination,” said the note, which was addressed to Eisenhauer.

“Did something happen to you that would cause a complete change, or was this newly surfaced personality always there, lurking in the shadows, hiding amidst lies? And if it was, how did you hide it so well?”

The post also mentioned that Eisenhauer had a goal of working for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which develops technology for the military. Kern told The Associated Press he wasn’t ready to discuss the post or his friendship with Eisenhauer.

Eisenhauer and Keepers went to high schools five miles apart in Columbia, a planned community between Baltimore and Washington that’s known for highly rated public schools and competitive athletics. It’s not clear when they met.

Eisenhauer, however, spent much of his childhood in Washington state, where he attended a small Christian school. His father was transferred to Maryland after his sophomore year, and his parents bought their $620,000 home in Columbia in 2013, prop-

erty records show.

He started running competitively in middle school at Riverside Christian School in Yakima, Washington, which has just 320 students in preschool through 12th grade.

Excelling in the classroom and on the track, he had an apparently seamless transition to Wilde Lake High School, which has 1,200 students.

His coach at Wilde Lake, Whitty Bass, raved about him in the feature for WMAR-TV, which aired last March.

“These are the ones you take a deep breath when you realize what you’ve got and say, ‘Don’t mess this up,’” Bass said.

The coach was less effusive this week at an indoor track meet in Hyattsville, Maryland, declining to comment on Eisenhauer or the allegations.

Eisenhauer was redshirted for his freshman year in track at Virginia Tech, according to a sophomore teammate, Andrew Eason. In the WMAR feature, Eisenhauer said he hoped to redshirt so he could run in college for five years.

Keepers played junior varsity soccer at Hammond High School but wasn’t a standout athlete like Eisenhauer. Her interests seemed more diverse as she joined the math team and Model United Nations and became a member of the National Honor Society and the National Science Honor Society, according to her LinkedIn profile. She acted in plays, helped direct the musical “Seussical” and taught science at a summer Bible camp.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas lawmakers are pledging support for a bill that would open up private emails sent by public employees about government business.

The Wichita Eagle reports that the bill would make information made by an employee of a public agency concerning business available to a Kansas Open Records Act request regardless of “form, characteristics or location.”

The addition of “location” comes after Gov. Sam Brownback’s budget director used a private account last year to email lobbyists a draft of the governor’s proposed budget before lawmakers saw it. The new bill would apply to employees who conduct government business on private email accounts.

“I don’t think, as a matter of public policy, that it’s appropriate to be able to avoid the requirements of (the Kansas Open Records Act) merely by using a different means of communication,” Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday.

The Kansas Association of Broadcasters and the Kansas Press Association also voiced support for the bill.

There was no opposition.

Kansan pleads guilty in bomb plot TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A 21-year-old man pleaded guilty in federal court Wednesday to two counts in connection with a plot to plant a bomb outside an Army post in northeast Kansas.

John T. Booker Jr., of Topeka, changed his pleas to guilty Wednesday in U.S. District Court to charges of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to use an explosive device to damage government property.

A plea agreement with prosecutors recommends that he be sentenced to 30 years in prison on the first charge and 20 years on the second charge, to be served at the same time.

As part of the plea deal, prosecutors dropped a charge of attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State group.

Booker had initially pleaded not guilty to three felony charges. He could have faced life in prison if convicted of those charges.

He was arrested in April 2015 outside Fort Riley, about 60 miles west of Topeka, trying to arm what he thought was a 1,000-pound bomb in a van.

~ Journalism that makes a difference

Raising age to buy tobacco takes city in healthy direction It’s a safe bet that most who use nicotine products wish they could turn back the clock and never have taken that first puff or pinch.

The younger you are, the easier it is to get hooked.

Whether smoked or chewed, tobacco is nasty stuff, causing bad breath, hacking coughs and stained teeth.

And as if that weren’t bad enough, it poses great danger to your health as a major contributor to lung and heart disease and all sorts of cancers. On average, using tobacco shortens one’s lifespan by 14 years. Hands down, using tobacco is the No. 1 preventable cause of death in the United States.

So, if as a community we had the opportunity to reduce the number of users, would we?

We’ll know Monday night.

That’s when Iola council members will consider a proposal to raise the legal age for buying tobacco products from 18 to 21.

PASSING such a measure would put Iola in league with a fast-growing number of progressiveminded communities, including Kansas City and Independence, Mo.

Clear back in 2005, Needham, Mass., was the first U.S. city to pass such legislation. Other Massachusetts communities soon followed suit. Now the Massachusetts legislature is considering making it state law. Hawaii did so as of the first of the year.

Targeting the 18 to 21 age group is critical for two reasons.

First, it’s legal to use tobacco beginning at age 18.

Second, the younger a person starts smoking or chewing tobacco, the more susceptible he is to becoming addicted. That’s the way our bodies are wired.

In the 10 years since the aforementioned Needham enforced such a law, the smoking rate among its high school students has dropped from almost 13 percent of students to 5.5 percent.

In Allen County, almost 25 percent adults use tobacco, exceeding the state average. Clearly we need to do something to address this public health hazard.

By voting to raise the legal age for buying tobacco products, our city council members would be taking decisive action to improve our community’s quality of life.

That’s leadership.

Letter to the editor Dear editor,

A group of concerned citizens met Monday night at the Iola Senior Center at the request of the Allen County Farm Bureau Organization Board to discuss the planned sale of the ACC Farm.

We are surprised that the proposed sale has not generated more posts and discussion in the media, because we have heard plenty in person.

I think that many people are shocked at the ACC board’s decision to sell the farm, since last spring a similar group of citizens were assured that the farm was off of the market.

We know that there have been changes in the farm management since that time, but the ACC Ag Advisory committee has not been consulted or invited to discuss those management issues, or any other problems being cited by the ACC administration as a rationale for the decision to sell. Last month’s surprise announcement by the ACC Board concerning the sale of the ACC farm was greeted with dismay.

Monday night a group of interested persons listened to John Masterson, ACC president, Jenny Spillman, ACC board member, Terry Powelson, instructor, and Charles Kerr, former instructor and current IHS Vo-Ag teacher, give us the background and farm update that the ACC board used in arriving at their decision. We were ad-

vised of ACC’s plans for the future direction of ag education. We heard students (at least one from out of state, and others from beyond the southeast Kansas region) tell us that they had made their decision to attend ACC based on the opportunities provided by the farm facility and the Zahn scholarships. Other prospective students have already decided to attend elsewhere, reflecting how important the farm facility was to their attendance.

The eminent sale of the farm is currently unnecessary. Options exist to maintain the property until plans and programs can be set up to best utilize and manage the facility. The value of land and structures will still be solid for years into the future.

There is no need to “fire-sale” this asset.

The plans to utilize the former Dieboldt Lumber property for technical programs on both the high school and collegiate level are exciting.

Why are we not planning programs of a similar intent for the ACC farm? Agriculture milling, livestock feeding, entomology, crop insurance adjusting, soil remediation, truck farming and niche marketing, backyard poultry programs, as well as explorations in solar and wind energy, are all programs that benefit from a hands-on approach to learning and are programs that look to future agricultur-

al careers.

To address specific current issues, a farm caretaker can be hired, while time is allotted to rethink current and future curricula and uses for the facility. Maintenance issues that have been allowed to slide can be evaluated and addressed. An accounting system that relates to farming reality should be instated, which would include a complete inventory, breeding plans, balance sheet and cash flow records, reviewed, at a minimum, once a semester. If there is an expectation that a farm facility be run on a “profitable” basis, do not issue a line item budget, which assumes success if the budget is under or at expected levels, and then maintain that the farm is an unprofitable facility. While we as taxpayers expect to see good stewardship of the finances, tax supported education is not thought of as a “profitable” enterprise.

Were it so, we would not have access to libraries, workout facilities or team sports on campus. Re-activate the Ag Advisory Committee and seek guidance from a group of people who have an agricultural background and a burning desire to bring young people into the vocation.

Please think twice before selling an irreplaceable asset to the Allen Community College program.

Value of clinical trials Participating patients can be lifesavers

As the nation takes up what President Barack Obama calls a moon shot to cure cancer, the need for contributions from one sector of the medical community may not be obvious — the patients themselves.

It almost seems unkind to ask patients — already burdened with the fears, expenses and challenges of what can be painful, sickening treatment regimens — to help others.

Patients need the best care, and they deserve all of the assistance that can be offered. At the same time, however, they are in a unique position to make contributions to science that, even if they won’t benefit personally, can certainly be helpful to others.

Most adults with cancer are hesitant to join clinical trials that drive the research that leads to advances in care and, ultimately, cures. Just 3 to 5 percent of patients volunteer, with 1 in 5 cancer studies failing to drawn enough participation

to determine what works.

Ironically, the problem is particularly acute for studies of breast cancer and other forms that have seen higher survival rates and cures —largely due to earlier clinical trials. Researchers see greater participation among patients who have cancers with poorer outcomes, including melanoma and pancreatic, lung and colon cancers.

Physicians for their part must do a better job of reassuring their patients that volunteering for the studies will not diminish the quality of care that they receive.

If anything, they stand to benefit from new treatment options in addition to what currently are the best options. Researchers, too, must explain their trials more fully.

Caregivers alone, though, will not be able to beat cancer. Future medical advances depend on the patients, too.

Dems: Iowa caucus results show tight race with Clinton, Sanders Continued from A1

margin of victory in Iowa’s leadoff caucuses.

The tone of their backand-forth has become increasingly sharp this week, and the candidates agreed to add four more debates to the primary season schedule, including tonight’s faceoff in Durham, N.H. In a tussle over their very political identities, the two candidates are engaged in an ongoing argument over who is more committed to — and capable of — carrying out a liberal agenda on health care, income inequality, worker rights and more.

Sanders, favored in New Hampshire’s firstin-the-nation primary,

Bernie Sanders

Hillary Clinton

said Wednesday that Clinton’s record is “just not progressive” on any number of issues, including her vote as a senator to authorize the war in Iraq.

Clinton called that a “low blow” and pressed her counterpoint that she’s the candidate with the ability to actually implement progressive

changes.

“Good ideas on paper are important, but you’ve got to be able to translate them into action,” she said.

The two made their rival cases in interviews and appearances around New Hampshire and in back-to-back appearances at a town-hall style forum on CNN on

Wednesday night.

Polls find Sanders holding a commanding lead over Clinton in New Hampshire, and he was eager to lower expectations for how he would finish. He cast himself as an underdog going up against “the most powerful political organization in the country.”

Clinton, for her part, has signaled her determination at least to narrow the gap before Tuesday’s vote. And her prospects are much stronger after Iowa, as the race moves on to states with more diverse electorates that are to her advantage.

The two campaigns even skirmished over why Sanders was doing

so well in New Hampshire polls. Sanders’ campaign accused Clinton’s of insulting New Hampshire voters by suggesting that they only support the Vermont senator because he’s from a neighboring state. That was after Clinton’s campaign manager referred to New Hampshire as Sanders’ “backyard.”

On the broader issue, Clinton offers herself to voters as “a progressive who gets things done,” part of her pitch that she’s the one with the practical skills to implement a progressive agenda.

Sanders counter-argument is that it will take a “political revolution” to achieve goals such as

universal health care, a fairer tax system and an incorruptible campaign finance system.

Asked earlier in the week if Clinton was a progressive, he said: “Some days, yes. Except when she announces that she is a proud moderate. Then I guess she is not a progressive.”

Sanders added that it was hard to take on the establishment “when you become as dependent as she has through her super PAC and in other ways on Wall Street or drug company money.”

Clinton said she found it amusing that the senator thinks he can be the “gatekeeper” of who’s progressive.

Older: Number of state’s elderly will double in next 50 years Continued from A1

workers are not surprising, but the conversion of youth and older population I thought was pretty surprising.”

The number of Kansas residents under age 18 is projected to increase in the next 50 years by only 1.5 percent — far slower than both the working age and retired population.

“Historically, I have heard people talk about how in the Midwest

generally they grow their own people. They educate their own workforce. They take pride in their own community,” Hill said. “Well, when you have these factors of migration that are influencing the working population it is a little different scenario than it was a couple of decades ago.”

Not only is Kansas not attracting a lot of workers, but the state is seeing a departure of its

working population for new opportunities and better wages, he said.

And since these working-age parents are taking their children with them, the state is losing its potential future growth.

Already the state’s 0.4 percent growth rate is slower than the 0.6 growth rate nationwide, Hill said, and the study anticipates the state’s growth rate will decline more in the future be-

cause Kansas does not have significant growth in its younger population.

“This should concern everybody,” said Xan Wedel, senior research data engineer at the University of Kansas’ Institute for Policy and Social Research.

The shifting population will especially hurt some rural counties that already have large numbers of aging residents, many of whom may have to move to metropolitan areas to find needed medical services, she said.

“When you no longer

have the working-age population to maintain your nursing homes, your hospitals, any kind of medical facilities you may need as you grow older, what are you going to do?,” she said. “I don’t have an answer to that, but I suspect that some of these older people won’t be able to age in place.”

The forecast predicted a continuation of the flight from rural to metropolitan areas within the state.

Only 20 of the state’s 105 counties are expected to grow in population, with the Kansas

City metropolitan area showing the greatest increases. The remaining 85 counties will see declines.

By 2064, more than 80 percent of Kansas residents are projected to be living in metropolitan areas.

A greater focus on urban populations will affect rural concerns over revenue, education funding and even political representation in Washington, D.C., if the slower population growth causes Kansas to lose any representation in Congress, Wedel said.

strates that there are fundamental flaws in which we select the justices for our Supreme Court,” Rubin, a Republican from Shawnee, said.

Critics say the measure is a way for Brownback to select high court judges who will rule to his liking. An education funding lawsuit from four local districts is still before the state Supreme Court. The court is also expected to take up a lawsuit against the state’s first-in-thenation ban on a common second-trimester abortion method; the Kansas Court of Appeals recently refused to implement the ban.

Republican Rep. Steven Becker from Buhler was one of several opponents who called the

proposal an “overreaction” to court rulings that lawmakers don’t like.

“When I came to the legislative branch I was surprised by the level of animosity between the Legislature and the judicial,” Becker said.

Kansas’ judicial selection method came about after a political scandal in 1957, when Gov. Fred Hall resigned after losing in the GOP primary and was then appointed to a vacant Supreme Court seat by the former lieutenant governor.

The proposed amendment comes on the heels of another measure that could have withdrawn the court system’s entire budget over a dispute surrounding the high court’s power.

Allen County GROW will use these results to identify and prioritize actions, LaClair said.

More than 200 Allen Countians took part in the surveys over the span of six weeks last summer, including at the Allen County Fair, school enrollments, food pantries, area businesses, group meetings.

Information also was culled from pertinent government data.

“When you think about health and how much poor health is costing us, there’s probably nothing more important than the access to healthy foods, particularly fresh fruits and vegetables,” said Juanell Garrett, Allen County GROW coordinator. “While I was in the community doing the food survey, I realized how there are

communication gaps in our county. I found people that didn’t know about the SNAP Market Match Program at Allen County Farmers’ Market and a mother of a preschooler that didn’t know about the Summer Food Service Program in her town. It’s a shame when there are available resources and genuine need and the two aren’t finding each other.”

Other survey results: — 17 percent of Allen County residents live in households with incomes below the federal poverty level, compared to 13 percent statewide.

— 60 percent of those surveyed purchased food from the Allen County Farmers’ Market in 2014.

— 84 percent of working adults surveyed said they did not have access to healthy vending food options at work; 56 per-

cent said they would purchase healthy options if available.

— 76 percent indicated they would take into account nutritional information printed in restaurant menus when placing their food orders.

ALLEN County GROW (Growing Rural Opportunities Works) was formed in August 2014 by the Allen County Commission, and was funded through a number of grants Thrive Allen County received by the Kansas Health Foundation’s Healthy Communities Grant — $125,000 over the past four years.

One of Allen County GROW’s missions is to supplement work done by local food pantries in providing more access to healthy, affordable foods.

Trump calls for Iowa election do-over; Cruz apologizes to Carson NASHUA, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is accusing rival Ted Cruz of stealing the Iowa caucuses and is demanding a do-over.

“Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified,” Trump tweeted Wednesday.

“Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated,” he wrote.

The inflammatory accusation marked a reversal for Trump, who on Monday night delivered a concession speech thanking Iowans for his secondplace finish and congratulating Cruz. On Tuesday night in New Hampshire, he told reporters he was “very happy with what happened in Iowa.”

But by Wednesday, Trump was laying out a list of accusations. He pointed to a mailer sent by the Cruz campaign headlined “voting violation” and resembled an official notice. The mailer showed recipients their history of voting or not in past caucuses, along with the turnout record of their neighbors, and drew complaints from Iowa’s secretary of state.

Trump also called out Cruz backers for circulating a false rumor Monday night that Ben Carson was dropping out of the race as caucusing was underway.

“Many people voted for Cruz over Carson because of this Cruz fraud,” Trump wrote, suggesting the efforts may have given Cruz a winning edge.

Iowa Rep. Steve King, a national co-chairman of Cruz’s campaign,

wrote on Twitter Monday evening: “Looks like (Carson) is out. ...

Skipping NH & SC is the equivalent of suspending. Too bad this information won’t get to all caucus goers.” Carson has called the comments “dirty tricks.”

Cruz spokesman Rick Tyler told CNN on Wednesday that Cruz apologized personally to Carson for the mistake. He said the Cruz team “as a campaign” never alleged Carson was dropping out.

“It may be that some of the surrogates or some of our caucus precinct captains ... went too far,” Tyler told CNN. If so, he added, “that was in error, that was

wrong.”

Carson isn’t letting the matter rest either.

He addressed what he called “dirty tricks” in a briefing at the National Press Club “in response to deceptive Iowa caucus tactics,” according to a campaign statement ahead of the event.

“It’s clear that there were people who tried to take advantage of a situation,” Carson said Wednesday during the briefing.

Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was pointed on the matter Wednesday.

“What Senator Cruz did to Ben Carson was a disgrace and an insult to Doctor Carson and

the process,” he said.

“What Senator Cruz did to the voters of Iowa was also a disgrace in regard to their phony voter violation form.

Additionally, they misrepresented Mr. Trump and unfortunately this happens all the time with crooked politicians.”

Asked whether the campaign planned to file a formal complaint, he said: “Wait and see.”

Officials from the Iowa Republican Party did not respond immediately to questions about their process for handling complaints like Trump’s.

Shockers dominate — B6

Tuesday, August 27,4,2013 Thursday, February 2016

Ellis leads Jayhawks to 77-59 victory over rival Wildcats LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas coach Bill Self was only slightly happier Wednesday night than Kansas State counterpart Bruce Weber, and the only reason for that was his seventh-ranked Jayhawks had won.

“I’ll be candid,” Self said after the 77-59 victory, “they outplayed us. They beat us to loose balls, they outhustled us. ... That’s about as soft as I can remember one of our teams playing.”

Perry Ellis scored 19 points, and Svi Mykhailiuk and Devonte Graham added 10 points apiece, to bail out the Jayhawks (18-4, 6-3 Big 12) on a night they were dominated on the glass.

Kansas managed two offensive rebounds while getting

outrebounded 36-21 by an undersized opponent.

“It wasn’t a well-played game on our part at all,” Self said. “But I think K-State, they came ready to play. I thought their defense was really, really good. I think they shrunk the floor on ball screens, they control the glass. ... For some reason we were still ahead.”

That reason was probably the Wildcats’ 23 turnovers.

“One of the things I put on the board was, ‘Make simple basketball plays,’” Weber said. “We try to do too much sometimes and don’t let the game come to us.”

Stephen Hurt had 14 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Wildcats, who have not won at Kansas since 2006 — three

coaches ago. Wesley Iwundu added 15 points but also had six turnovers.

“Coach said, ‘You can’t let offense determine defense,’ and that happened to us,” Iwundu said.

Not in the first 15 minutes.

That part of the game belonged to Kansas State, which clogged the lane and forced a handful of early turnovers of its own to take an early 18-10 lead.

“We can’t do that,” Graham said. “We have to come out and know everyone is coming after our heads.”

Eventually, Ellis and Mykhailiuk knocked down 3s to help start a first-half run, and Frank Mason III See JAYHAWKS | Page B6

Long drops career-high 41 points in win over Coffeyville

By JON DYKSTRA The Iola Register

Allen’s Jermaine Long shoots a fourth quarter 3-pointer in front of the Allen crowd Wednesday. REGISTER/JON DYKSTRA

“Shooters shoot.”

This is one of the oldest cliches in basketball. So normal if it came out of the mouth of Jermaine Long, Allen Community College’s starting guard, it would be met with smiles and a bit of chuckling from those near enough to hear it When Long said those words after Wednesday’s 9485 victory over Coffeyville, it was met with understanding nods.

“Coach says ‘shooters shoot’ so I kept shooting,” Long said. “If I hit one, I felt like I could hit another one. I kept hitting them until then I finally missed, but he just said don’t let that miss get you discouraged, so I kept shooting and they kept falling.”

That was because Long had just scored a career-high 41 points on just 21 shots. The smooth righty from New Orleans converted 10 of his 16 attempts from three.

“He put together a complete game,” Allen coach Andy Shaw said. “He put together a complete game and was able to will us to a victory.”

Long was in a ‘zone’ from the moment the game tipped off. He and his teammates raced out to a quick lead against the Ravens and never

Allen soccer duo sign with D-II school

By JON DYKSTRA The Iola Register

Allen Community College women’s soccer sent a pair of standout performers to the next level Wednesday afternoon.

Emilee Mitchell and Jamie Cronister each signed to continue their collegiate playing careers with Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Mo. “It is a great feeling, especially (to commit) to a top program like Missouri Western,” Allen coach Jeremy McGinnis said. “These girls have been working hard for the last couple years and really bought into what we do here at Allen.”

Mitchell, a native of Platte City, Mo., is able to move closer to home with the change in schools. Being that close to home is a benefit she is eagerly anticipating.

“It was a pretty easy de-

cision to decide to go to a school that is that close to home,” Mitchell said. “I can be home and have some meals at home.”

Mitchell earned an honorable mention All-Jayhawk Conference nod this season for her work in goal for the Red Devils. The sophomore made 99 saves this season and

only allowed 20 goals in 16 games.

Cronister joined Mitchell with honorable mention allconference honors this season.

The defensive-minded midfielder tallied a goal this season against Neosho County, See SIGNING | Page B6

Allen Community College women’s head coach Todd Buchanan is searching for answers after his team lost another halftime lead and fell to Coffeyville Community College 73-50.

“Third quarter is our nemesis,” Buchanan said.

“We can’t figure out why,

what, how. At the end of the day, I’ve come to realize they are still struggling with learning how to win. I don’t know what psychologically, but when we are within striking distance and come in with a lead, I don’t know See Women | Page B6

Senate votes to lessen pot penalties TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas would decrease penalties for first- and second-time marijuana possession under a bill overwhelmingly approved Wednesday by the state Senate.

The Senate approved the measure, 38-1. It’s a narrow version of legislation approved by the House last year to liberalize marijuana laws, and the measure will go there next for further review.

The vote reflected strong, bipartisan support for keeping people convicted of marijuana posses-

sion out of state prisons.

The Kansas Department of Corrections had more than 9,700 inmates in its custody as of Tuesday, or about 100 more than the state capacity of its prisons.

The measure would reduce the punishment for first-time misdemeanor possession to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine, rather than the current year in jail and $2,500 fine.

A second possession conviction would result in a year in jail but would no longer be a felony, so an offender wouldn’t be sent to state prison.

OF ‘AMERICAN IDOL’ WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY ON FOX With this being the show’s “Farewell Season,” what do you recall of your start on “American Idol”?

I was a local radio guy who wanted to be on broadcast television, and this was a big network show ... so I was thrilled to have the opportunity to be on it. And the fact that it was live, initially, I was fearful of that, but it actually was probably a good thing because I was used to live broadcasting every day. I was very happy to get the nod – and obviously, as Simon (Cowell) said, I was a little puppy dog back then. I was just so excited to be there.

When did you realize that the show was catching on with the public?

I think we knew midway through the ... not even midway, a fraction into the first season that it was resonating because we were getting feedback as such. And then, when we went out to do the auditions for the second season and we walked through airports and we went to dinners and went to malls in different cities and you could see that fathers and sons and daughters and mothers, families, were watching the show, I think that’s when we realized this was having a significant impact, not just on an audience, but on a family audience.

What’s your feeling about “American Idol” as it now heads toward the finish line?

The network has been extremely supportive of this brand and franchise throughout the years. You know, it’s been such a blessing to have such great partners as Fox throughout all of these years. The (ratings) numbers look great this season. They look really good. And I think that we are all pleased that people are watching, and some are coming back to watch this show who maybe didn’t watch the last couple of years.

How can I free this fat from my belly, sir?

Exal or omental fat, the kind ercise alone isn’t enough that is most strongly as- to lose fat — abdominal sociated with cardiovas- or otherwise; it requires cular disease — tends to a change in diet.

But, there are based on vegetables and many benefits to a healthwhole grains, with gener- ier diet and increased ous amounts of healthy exercise, including more fats and proteins, since energy and an increased these are more efficient at sense of well-being. making us feel full than carbohydrates are.

Dear Dr. Roach: My Along with a change girlfriend has been takin diet, almost all of us ing pseudoephedrine in industrialized coun- HCL for at least a year. tries would benefit from

She takes an average of four 30-mg pills per day. As far as I know, she started this to keep her sinuses open and help her nasal breathing. I am concerned about addiction and long-term effects. She was on Adderall once, and claims that the pseudoephedrine helps her focus. She has been previously diagnosed with depression, and takes Cymbalta and trazodone. Does that make sense? Would seeing an ENT specialist be beneficial?

— A.S. Answer: The first issue is whether pseudoephedrine (Sudafed and others) is a safe and effective treatment for chronic nasal congestion. Although pseudoephedrine has some effectiveness in chronic congestion, it also has some abuse potential, and I would be more concerned about its side effects, including difficulty sleeping, irritability and tremor, and headache.

pressure, especially in people who already have some degree of elevation.

It is not recommended for chronic use.

The second issue is whether your girlfriend has a condition like ADHD, and if so, if pseudoephedrine is a useful treatment. The first part of that, I can’t answer, except to say that it’s likely some prescriber thought so, since she was treated with amphetamines.

I can say that pseudoephedrine is unlikely to have any significant benefit in adult ADHD. I think she would benefit from seeing a provider, both to find the right diagnosis and treatment for her nasal complaints, and to determine whether she does have ADHD or another condition requiring treatment. Most general doctors have experience in chronic nasal problems, but a psychologist or psychiatrist usually is necessary to make the diagnosis and prescribe treatment for ADHD.

what psychologically, but when we are within striking distance and come in with a lead, I don’t know if it freaks them out.”

Despite the defeat, Buchanan says there are signs of improvement in his inexperienced group of Red Devils and that they continue to improve despite their record.

“Overall, I can’t tell you how proud I am,” Buchanan said. “I thought we played some of our best basketball to date.”

Ball handling plagued Allen again as the Red Devils struggled to handle Coffeyville’s press.

“Turnovers, turnovers,” Buchanan said.

“We don’t execute. We turn it over. We put our heads down and we don’t fight back for about two and a half periods, and that is the difference in the game. That’s the difference between great teams, good teams and teams that are trying to find their way. We are certainly trying to find our way.”

The points Coffeyville was able to get of turnovers spelled the end for Allen in their lopsided third quarter.

“When we miss an easy shot and we put our head down for any length of time, it is a live-ball turnover basically because a team

like that, they are so athletic, they will take it and go,” Buchanan said.

Allen point guard Ashley Washington struggled with the traps and press for most of the night and was frustrated into several miscues.

“I think number one she tries to do too much with the basketball,” Buchanan said.

In order to help break the press, Buchanan used DaMonica Franklin in a ‘point forward’ role with great success in the second quarter when they were able to go on a run and take a 28-27 halftime lead.

“When they come and jump us, we use the size differential to see over the trap,” Buchanan said of using Franklin

as a point forward.

During the second quarter run, Franklin was able to break the press and find Allen’s top shooter Hailey Wilson for 3-point baskets.

“It’s everything,” Buchanan said of Wilson’s shooting.

“She does what she does.”

Statistics were unavailable.

Allen hosts Cottey College at 6 p.m.

Monday.

“At the end of the day, it is not knowing how to win, trying to learn how to win, stay together and being consistent,” Buchanan said. “Right now we are obviously failing in all three categories.”

ed plays for others. After one hard landing, the guard got up to find the white sleeve covering his right calf and knee soaked through with blood.

Meanwhile, the Wildcats slowly began to lose their composure.

After Mason’s basket with 12 seconds to go, Hurt turned the ball over on the inbounds play, sending Weber into an uproar. He stormed across the court after one of the officials and appeared to be close to getting a technical foul before assistants reined him in.

“I tried to keep my poise. And for 16 minutes, I told the official, I kept it to myself,” Weber said. “You have to fight through it and be tougher than that.”

Then again, Weber wasn’t any happier when Brannen Greene knocked down a 3-point-

er and was fouled, converting a rare four-point play with 2 seconds left that gave Kansas a 39-29 lead.

Kansas State trimmed its deficit to 47-45 on a basket by D.J. Johnson with just under 12 minutes to go, but Wayne Selden Jr. answered with a 3 from the wing and a layup off an alleyoop pass.

That kicked off one more big run that allowed the Jayhawks to seize control of the game.

“It was amazing to me, we were up 10 at the half and I felt like it was a tie,” Self said. “It was one of those games, I looked up and I was surprised we had the lead.”

STOKES SURGERY Kansas State guard Kamau Stokes will have surgery on his right knee Thursday. He was hurt in last Saturday’s win over Mississippi.

“He’ll probably be out for a while,” Weber said without giving details on the nature of the surgery. “It’s a miracle that he could come back (this season).”

TIP-INS Kansas State: Johnson had nine points before fouling out. He played 12 minutes. ...

The Wildcats finished with a 36-21 rebounding advantage. ... Kansas State is 1-6 in road games.

Kansas: C Hunter Mickelson did not play while dealing with a high ankle sprain. ...

Landen Lucas, who fouled out, had eight points and six rebounds. ... Kansas was 16 of 22 from the free throw line.

Shockers prevail over Salukis in MVC action WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — There were many reasons Southern Illinois coach Barry Hinson could point to in trying to explain how his team, tied for second in the Missouri Valley Conference, has lost to Wichita State twice this season, each time by more than 20 points.

One stood out Wednesday night after No. 21 Wichita State’s 76-55 victory over the Salukis.

“It’s their length,” Hinson said. “We just don’t run up against anybody else in our league that has that kind of length.”

Fred VanVleet had 12 points and 11 assists to lead the Shockers (17-5, 11-0 Missouri Valley) to their 12th straight victory. Shaquille Morris had a season-high 13 points and fellow center Anton Grady added 10 points for Wichita State Anthony Beane scored 15 of his gamehigh 20 point in the first half for Southern Illinois (18-6, 7-4). Bola Olaniyan had seven points and 16 rebounds for the Salukis, helping them outrebound the conference’s top rebounding team 48-31.

Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said his

team’s length showed on the defensive end.

“Our defense was phenomenal, especially in the second half,” Marshall said. “That really carried the day.”

Beane, who was 3 of 10 in the first matchup against Wichita State, was hot early. He scored 10 of Southern Illinois’ first 12 points, going 4 of 5 from the field.

Beane’s hot hand helped the Salukis stay close.

Tyler Smithpeters’ steal and layup cut Wichita State’s lead to 20-19 with 8:39 remaining in the first half.

The Shockers then locked down Southern

Illinois. During a stretch of more than 8 minutes, the Salukis had two baskets. One was tipped in by a Shocker going for a rebound. The other was a layup by Smithpeters when he rebounded an airball all alone.

“We wanted to take them out of their offense,” VanVleet said.

Wichita State methodically went on a 14-4 run, capped by Morris’ fade-away, banked jumper for a 34-23 lead with 2:14 remaining in the half.

Wichita State led 37-28 at halftime and quickly advanced the margin into double dig-

its. A 3 by Evan Wessel and Morris converting an alley-oop pass made it 42-28, and Southern Illinois took a timeout just 71 seconds into the half.

The Shockers made seven free throws to make it 49-31 and four straight points from Grady gave Wichita State a 53-34 lead with 14:11 to play.

“Our guards were really pounding the ball down to Shaq and me,” Grady said. “They were dropping the ball down to us and giving us good opportunities.”

Just over 6 minutes later, 3-pointers by

Wessel and VanVleet pushed the lead to 64-42 with 7:57 remaining.

“I’m not going to fault our guys at all,” Hinson said. “The first game, we didn’t compete. Tonight, we fought our butts off. We just turned it over 22 times, and that will kill you.”

STILL STREAKING This was Wichita State’s first home game since Arizona lost to visiting Oregon on Jan. 28. That snapped the longest homecourt winning streak in the country at 49 games, giving the Shockers the current mark.

but her main contribution was of the defensive end of the field for the Red Devils.

The sophomore started all 17 games she played in for Allen this year.

“When I did go to (Missouri Western), I got along really well with the girls and the coaches,” Cronister said. “They were really nice and easy to get along with but at the same time, they seemed like they can be hard on you and make you a better player.”

Facilities were a key factor if each players decision to attend Missouri Western. The university is completely a remodel of its football and soccer stadium, which will be completed before the season begins.

The school also hosts the Kansas City Chiefs training camp and is home to an indoor practice facility with the Missouri Western student-athletes use while the Chiefs are not in St. Joseph.

McGinnis says the

relationship he has developed with Missouri Western coach Chad Edwards over their years of coaching soccer gives him the confidence that he is sending his players into a great situation. “”Its very important to me that I’m not just sending them on to go somewhere,” McGinnis said. “I’m sending them somewhere… to be with someone that is going to take good care of them and make sure they are coached the right way and doing it the right way.

“Unfortunately not everyone is. So you got to make sure they’re in the right hands and these ladies definitely are with Chad.”

For Edwards, he is just excited to add a pair of talented players to his roster as the Griffons have improved their record each of the past three seasons under his watch.

“We were looking to bolster our roster up with some college playing experience and it was a perfect match,” Edwards said.
