‘Black beauty’ ready for show

By BOB JOHNSON bob@iolaregister.com

When he started flipping hamburgers at the A&W Restaurant, Jimmy Gribble, then 14, was like most boys just reaching their teens and eligible for a restricted driver’s license. He was car crazy.

“I liked hot rods,” Gribble said, as he carefully wiped dust from the glistening black paint on an upscale and highly modified car he will have at the Neil Westervelt Memorial Iola Rotary Club Show Car in Riverside Park Saturday.

Cars from throughout eastern Kansas — and a handful from out-of-state — are expected to give fanciers a huge menu to choose from, lined up in the south part of the park’s picnic grounds. Spectators will vote for winners in many categories, with trophies awaiting.

“I got out of hot rods after I got

married (to Teresa) and started a family,” Gribble said, but his wife understood his interest in cars and was perfectly willing to have him indulge himself when he purchased a 1974 Chevy Nova hatchback about nine years ago.

Initially, Gribble’s plan was not to rebuild the car to where it is today. He thought a new coat of paint and a little tweaking here and there would be enough, especially after a fellow who was to help begged off. He planned on a car for weekend drives.

Gribble, 51, has been at A&W 37 years and has managed it for years, which reminded him of a former employee, BJ Schwindt, who with the help of his father, Mike Schwindt, rebuilt a car that came out amazing well.

Schwindt does rebuilds for a

living at Motor Sport Restoration, 325 N. Sycamore, and was eager to help Gribble, who wanted to do some of the work. But, without Schwindt’s assistance the car wouldn’t have turned as nearly as well as it did, Gribble allowed.

“Mike is a artist in metal,” Gribble said. “He’s a master fabricator.”

With encouragement from Schwindt, “my imagination went crazy,” he said.

Originally, the car had “an ugly grill and big bumpers,” replaced in favor of more streamlined components, Gribble recalled.

Even so, he is satisfied most people would have trouble telling the car didn’t come off a factory’s assembly line, albeit much more exacting and sleek than a commercial model.

The car is powered by a 461-cubic-inch engine, previously a gas-guzzler in a 1974 Suburban, with the engine’s horse power

Allison Heim is somewhat a Jack (or Jill) of-alltrades in her Prairie Rose 4-H Club, and she is bringing a full arsenal to the Allen County Fair this weekend.

Heim, 11, who lives north of Moran with her parents Bret and Angelea, and her sisters Mallory and Sophia, has been working to perfect her arts and crafts project for the fair. Built out of popsicle sticks, she has constructed miniature pallets that may be used for drink coasters — an idea that was sparked from a post on Pinterest.

“I just like to look for fun stuff to do,” she said. “I got the hang of it pretty fast.”

She cut out all of the pieces of the pallets from a template she created herself.

And, after just one prototype, she had her completed coaster. She will show her project off at the arts and crafts show in the fair. The show starts at 4 p.m. Friday in the Recreation Community Building at Riverside Park.

Heim’s talents are not limited to smaller projects, however. She has constructed a rocket, is training a

Type 1 Diabetes

Moms ‘Walk to Cure’ diabetes

What are the signs?

Blurred vision

If your blood sugar is too high, fluid may be pulled from the lenses of your eyes. This may affect your ability to focus clearly.

Increased thirst and frequent urination

As excess sugar builds up in your bloodstream, fluid is pulled from the tissues. This may leave you thirsty.

Extreme hunger

Without enough insulin to move sugar into your cells, your muscles and organs become energy depleted.

Weight loss

Despite eating more than usual to relieve hunger, your may lose weight — sometimes rapidly. Without the energy sugar supplies, muscle tissues and fat stores simply shrink. Unexplained weight loss is often the first sign to be noticed.

Fatigue

If your cells are deprived of sugar, you may become tired and lethargic. Irritability or unusual behavior.

Yeast infection

Girls with type 1 diabetes may have a genital yeast infection, and babies can develop diaper rash.

By KAYLA BANZET kayla@iolaregister.com

When Dana Vanatta’s son Caleb was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes four years ago, she was stunned.

“It was shocking,” Dana said.

“There was lots of crying.”

Once Caleb, now 17, was diagnosed his lifestyle instantly changed. He still participates in sports — football, basketball and baseball — but he had to become more careful about his eating habits.

“I had to learn how to count carbs and measure food,” Caleb said.

“Everyone thinks it’s the sugar you have to watch but it’s the carbs,” Dana added.

The Vanatta family is not Dana Vanatta alone.

In the United States, 15,000 children are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in a year, according to diabetes research. Type 1 diabetes is also known as juvenile diabetes. It is when the pancreas no Vol. 115, No. 191

Health care professionals do not know what causes diabetes and are looking for a cure.

A team of local mothers have banded together to raise funds for a cure.

Vanatta along with Gretchen Murrow, Brandi Gibson, Amber Weide and Shona Crays decided to make the community more aware of diabetes.

Spanish train wreck kills 78

By ALAN CLENDENNING and HERNAN MUNOZ Associated Press

SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain (AP) — A Spanish train that hurtled off the rails and smashed into a security wall as it rounded a bend was going so fast that carriages tumbled off the tracks like dominos, according to eyewitness accounts and video footage obtained today.

The official death toll from Wednesday night’s crash near this Christian festival city in northwest Spain rose to 78 in Spain’s deadliest wreck in four decades.

Hospital officials said 141 people were injured, and 36 remained in critical condition today, among them four children.

Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, who was born in Santiago de Compostela, toured the crash scene alongside rescue workers and went to a nearby hospital to visit some of the wounded and their families.

“For a native of Santiago, like me, this is the saddest day,” Rajoy said.

He said judicial authorities and the Public Works Ministry had launched parallel investigations into what caused the crash.

Eyewitness accounts backed by securitycamera footage of the moment of disaster suggested that the eightcarriage train carrying 218 passengers was going too fast as it tried to turn left underneath a road bridge. The speed limit

Today

on that section of track is 50 miles per hour, Spanish officials said.

The footage, which the Spanish railway authority Adif said probably came from one of its cameras, shows the train carriages start to buckle soon into the turn, with the first and second passenger carriages leaving the tracks first. The engine itself quickly fol-

Galicia region’s main court, said 73 people died at the scene, four others after they were taken to hospitals. The Interior Ministry later confirmed a 78th death.

lows, violently tipping on to its right side as it crashed into a concrete security wall and bulldozed its way along the ground.

In the background, all the rear carriages can be seen starting to decouple and come off the tracks.

The picture goes blank as the engine appears to crash directly into the camera.

“I saw the train coming out of the bend at great speed and then there was a big noise,” one eyewitness, Consuelo Domingues, told The Associated Press. “...

Then everybody tried to get out of the train.”

Santiago officials, who had been preparing for the city’s annual Catholic festival today, canceled it and took control of the main sports stadium to use as a makeshift morgue. There, relatives of many of the dead could be seen sobbing and embracing each other.

children.

The Interior Ministry, responsible for law and order, ruled out terrorism as a cause.

It was Spain’s deadliest train accident since 1972, when a train collided with a bus in southwest Spain, killing 86 people and injuring 112.

“July 24 will no longer be the eve of a day of celebration but rather one commemorating one of the saddest days in the history of Galicia,” said Alberto Nunez Feijoo, regional president of Galicia. Santiago de Compostela is its capital.

The accident created a scene that was “Danteesque,” Feijoo said. He declared seven days of mourning for the victims.

Rescue workers spent

the night searching through smashed carriages alongside the tracks.

As dawn broke, cranes brought to the scene were used to lift the carriages off the tracks.

Rescue workers collected passengers’ scattered luggage and loaded it into a truck next to the tracks.

Rescuers described a scene of horror immediately after the crash.

Smoke billowed from at least one carriage that had caught fire, while another had been torn into two parts.

Residents of the residential neighborhood closest to the rail line struggled to help victims out of the toppled cars.

Some passengers were pulled out of broken windows.

Television images showed one man atop a carriage lying on its side, using a pickaxe to try to smash through a window. Other rescuers used rocks to try to free survivors from the fiery wreckage.

Nearby, rescue workers lined up bodies covered in blankets alongside the tracks.

State-owned train operator Renfe said it couldn’t confirm how many staff were on board the train. It said the crash happened at 8:41 p.m. about 2.5 miles south of Santiago de Compostela.

Spanish media said the train had two drivers aboard and both survived.

KU requests money for med school McClatchy News Service

WICHITA — Kansas University is requesting an additional $4.5 million in state funding to double the class size of the School of Medicine in Wichita and to fund physician faculty.

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little made the request before the Board of Regents on Wednesday morning in Topeka.

Earlier this year, state lawmakers cut nearly $4 million from KU’s budget, part of its budget decision to cut funding at virtually all state univer-

sities.

Just a few months ago in April, Gray-Little told the regents that the impending cuts to higher education could force KU to eliminate the medical school in Salina and reduce the one in Wichita back to a two-year program.

However, Doug Girod, executive vice chancellor for the KU Medical Center, said those comments were made in response a proposal being considered by the Kansas House at that time. He said some House members were proposing greater

cuts than what actually occurred. Now, he says, KU does not plan to cut the Salina program and can maintain it with current funds.

The Wichita campus had a baseline allocation of $14.9 million in general use funds in fiscal year 2013, according to the regents’ meeting agenda.

The Wichita campus budget was decreased by about $500,000 for fiscal year 2014.

The additional funding would expand the Wichita campus to 56 first- and second-year students.

~ Journalism that makes a difference

Detroit’s demise could happen here — in a snap Haldex years later.

Since the closing of Haldex two years ago Iola Industries is at it again trying to find a replacement for the large manufacturer.

As a region, we need to continue to diversify our manufacturing base HALF OF Detroit’s $18 billion debt is owed in pensions and health benefits to its 20,000 retirees.

On this point, Kansas has no room to speak.

Today, the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS) has $10 billion in unfunded liabilities.

Yes, we’re getting on the right track with increased contributions from both employers and employees, but the increases are modest and will take a long time to get the system on solid footing.

For the past 17-plus years the Kansas Legislature was negligent in its responsibility to adequately fund the retirement program, allowing decreases in contributions alongside increases in benefits.

Kansas educators, firemen, policemen and other public officials as well as their employers are now paying the price of such mismanagement with significantly higher contributions and fewer benefits.

Kansas taxpayers as a whole also are paying into the retirement system as proceeds from gaming revenues are funneled its way.

Another casualty of the mismanagement will be a decline in good candidates who will seek better paying jobs elsewhere.

The biggest casualty in Detroit is the trust between its people and city and state leaders. If their pensions and benefits are allowed to help satisfy the debts caused by the ineptitude of city leaders, it will break the spirit of a people who have little else left but their hard-earned dignity in their service to others.

Kansas should be on the alert.

Detroit is by no means unique.

A look back in time

50 Years Ago Week of July 21, 1963

Wilbert F. Dreiling, formerly of Hays, is the new president of Piqua State Bank.

Dreiling purchased controlling interest in the bank from the heirs of the late John H. Wille, who had operated the bank for 54 years. ***** Hundreds of dead fish, mostly catfish and suckers,

are floating along the shoreline of Lake Bassola. It was not possible this morning to get official word as to the reason for the dead fish. However, it was reported that a second treatment of copper sulfate had been added to the lake water in an attempt to get rid of heavy moss accumulations. It is believed that this may be responsible for the dead fish.

Letters to the editor Dear editor,

Thank heaven for an eightmember council. This shifts the thought process across the city and away from a neighborhood. I understand the neighborhood concern. It comes from a lack of understanding of the real world. We’ve lived in a neighborhood for 32 years that covers the fears of all the naysayers.

We’re half a block off U.S. 54 (Madison Street). East Street, our street in front, carries more traffic than will ever impact the North Kentucky corridor. There will probably be an increase in traffic using Miller Road; additional traffic using South Kentucky; more traffic using North Kentucky, but the impact on the neighborhood is insignificant.

We’ve experienced it. It is no problem. The neighborhood may hear a few more sirens from ambulances if they’re outside. If they’re in their house they will hear very little, not more than a few seconds. Not enough to cause a problem. Fear of the

unknown.

When you live for 32 years one block from a hospital, you learn to have no fears, only gratitude. Some poor soul is in trouble. Be thankful that we have the services to attend to them.

Ray Shannon, Iola, Kan.

Anthony Weiner and the elusive truth At some point, the full story of Anthony Weiner and his sexual relationships and texting habits will finally be told.

In the meantime, the serially evasive Mr. Weiner should take his marital troubles and personal compulsions out of the public eye, away from cameras, off the Web and out of the race for mayor of New York City.

Mr. Weiner, who resigned from Congress two years ago after sending lewd messages and photos of his crotch to women he had not met, was forced to revisit the issue on Tuesday, and so were we all. A Web site called The Dirty had another woman’s story, another round of sex texts, and another picture of Mr. Weiner’s penis. The startling news was that this new episode apparently took place last summer, only a few months before Mr. Weiner was to begin another run at public office. The marital trauma that Mr. Weiner and his wife, Huma Abedin, had said was behind them was not as far behind as we thought.

When the first texts were revealed two years ago, Mr. Weiner lied about it, saying he had been the victim of hackers. Then he owned up, tearfully abandoned his office and retreated into private life.

Then he was back, telling the world that therapy and his wife’s forgiveness had turned him around and that he was ready to begin a new chapter.

That turned out to be the mayor’s race, which he entered in

“

This behavior is behind me.

“

The demise of Detroit is just a heartbeat away for most public officials.

Many of its current policies spelled doom. Trouble is, nobody bothered to read the handwriting on the wall.

So what can we here in Iola take from the Motown’s meltdown?

For the past 40 years, Detroit’s inner city was neglected. Attention and special deals were given to big box stores to build on its outskirts, forcing the momand-pops to close.

To a much smaller degree we’ve witnessed that here. Walmart — almost two miles from Iola’s downtown — has all but robbed our square of a majority of retailers. Yes, it’s a pretty good team player, as far as Walmarts go, but it’s forced the closure of all of our independent grocery stores, an electronics store, two hardware stores and a shoe store, all in the past 10 years.

The lesson learned is not that we necessarily say no to Walmart or Orschelns, but that any and all entities that want to build in Iola should be given every advantage possible.

And that as a community, we need to realize that we each butter the other’s bread. Tim and Teresa Henry’s success at Twin Motors is reflected in a new pair of Justin boots at Glen Coffield’s Town & Country Western Wear. When Valentine’s Day comes ’round and you’ve bought your sweetie a bouquet of roses, you can be sure Duane and Judy McGraw feel able to dine at Corleone’s.

Detroit was a one-pony show. It knew only automobiles and when globalization came into full effect it lost out to more nimble competitors and economies.

When Iola lost Pet Milk and LeHigh Portland Cement years ago, city leaders worked tirelessly to recruit new business. They were rewarded with Russell Stover Candies, Gates Rubber and Berg Manufacturing locating here. Berg sold to

May. What he did not say then, and what voters did not realize until Tuesday, was that his resignation had not been the end of his sexual misconduct.

THE TIMING here matters, as it would for any politician who violates the public’s trust and then asks to have it back.

Things are different now, he insists. “This behavior is behind me,” he said again on Tuesday. He suggested that people should have known that his sexting was an unresolved problem well into 2012.

That’s ridiculous and speaks to a familiar but repellent pattern of misleading and evasion. It’s up to Mr. Weiner if he wants to keep running, to count on voters to forgive and forget and hand him the

keys to City Hall. But he has already disqualified himself.

It’s difficult not to feel for Ms. Abedin. The couple deserved privacy as they worked through their problems — and they had it, until they reemerged in public life and Mr. Weiner decided he was a good fit to run New York City. Mr. Weiner and Ms. Abedin have been saying that his sexual behavior is not the public’s business. Well, it isn’t, until they make it our business by plunging into a political campaign.

Mr. Weiner says he is staying in the mayoral race. To those who know his arrogance and have grown tired of the tawdry saga he has dragged the city into, this is not surprising.

Americans want curbs put on surveillance

By DAVID LIGHTMAN McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Americans are fed up with the federal government snooping on their phone calls, emails and Internet use, and they want curbs on what can

be monitored, majorities say in a new McClatchyMarist poll.

The July 15-18 survey also found widespread opposition to the Insider Threat Program revealed in a recent McClatchy story — a sweeping, unprecedent-

“Privacy still counts, and federal employees snooping on each other, that’s out of bounds,” said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist In-

stitute for Public Opinion at Marist College in New York, which conducted the poll.

The poll’s findings come as the House of Representatives considers defunding National Security Agency programs that collect telephone and other data.

An unusual coalition of liberals and conservatives, concerned about the reach of an everintrusive government, is behind the effort.

The proposal is contained in a massive defense spending bill and is unlikely to ultimately survive. Senate leaders and the White House are opposed, and intelligence officials have been lobbying furiously all week against the move.

The Insider Threat Program is laid out in documents reviewed recently by McClatchy that showed some agencies are using the authority to pursue unauthorized disclosures of any data, not just classified material. McClatchy also found that millions of federal employees and contractors are being told to watch for suspicious activity among co-workers.

Failing to report such behavior could mean serious penalties, including criminal charges, and leaks to the media are equated with espionage.

Enough, says the public. By a 2-to-1 margin, poll respondents declared that having federal employees track each other is going too far. The strong concern crosses all party lines, age, race and income groups.

Fifty-six percent of the survey’s respondents thought the government had gone too far in its collection of personal data, while a

THE POLL did have some good news for President Barack Obama, whose poll numbers have sunk this month. Slightly more than half approved of his handling of homeland security and antiterrorism programs, while 38 percent did not.

“People feel he draws lines in the sand where he needs to,” Miringoff said. “This has been an area where people still see him providing significant strength.”

There was little support, though, for Edward Snowden, the national security contractor who triggered the secret surveillance program uproar with his leaks to the media last month.

Fifty-five percent said they had an unfavorable impression of Snowden, who remains a man without a country, apart from the U.S., which wants him back. He has been stuck at the transit zone of a Moscow airport, seeking temporary asylum in Russia.

About half saw him as a whistle-blower, while 38 percent regarded him as a traitor.

“The argument that he was aiding the enemy does not come through as strongly,” Miringoff said.

‘Hard 50’ law questioned Schmidt calls for special session

By JOHN HANNA Associated Press

third said the effort was needed. Seventy percent want regulations to limit what can be monitored to protect privacy, while more than a quarter regard the programs as part of life in the digital age.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt on Wednesday asked Gov. Sam Brownback to call the Legislature into special session to rewrite the state’s “Hard 50” sentencing law following a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that raises questions about its constitutionality.

Schmidt told the governor in a letter that if the state waits to revise its law until lawmakers convene their next, annual session in January, it runs the risk of convicted killers receiving lesser sentences. The law allows judges to sentence people convicted of first-degree murder to a minimum of 50 years in prison before they can seek parole, with a minimum of 25 years as an alternative.

The nation’s highest court ruled last month in a Virginia case that juries, not judges, should have the final say on the facts triggering mandatory minimum sentences. In Kansas, a judge decides whether aggravating factors warrant imposing the Hard 50 sentence.

A special legislative session is likely to have bipartisan support. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Jeff King, an Independence Republican, immediately backed the GOP attorney general’s request. While House Minority Leader Paul Davis, a Lawrence

“

I don’t know of any reason to believe we don’t need to have a special session.

— Minority Leader Paul Davis

“

Respondents say ‘enough is enough.’

Democrat, stopped short of a full endorsement, he added, “I don’t know of any reason to believe we don’t need to have a special session.”

Schmidt said in his letter that his office identified about two-dozen murder cases that could be affected by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling last month, and there are probably more. King called rewriting the Kansas law “the single most important issue the Legislature has to address” because of its public safety implications.

“We need to address this as promptly as possible,” King said.

The attorney general recommended that the special session be scheduled no later than midSeptember. He said in

his letter that his office already is working on specific legislation, and Davis said he doubts a special session would be “protracted.”

King said: “I think it will be relatively easy to get a consensus.”

Schmidt did not return a cellphone message seeking comment, and spokesman Don Brown declined by email to comment. The attorney general scheduled a news conference for today in Topeka.

Brownback spokeswoman Eileen Hawley said the governor understands the attorney general’s concerns. “The governor will look at it and make a decision shortly,” she said.

A week after its June 17 ruling in the Virginia case, the U.S. Supreme Court sent another case back to the Kansas Supreme Court, which has repeatedly upheld the Hard 50 law’s constitutionality. It was the appeal of Matthew Astorga, convicted of premeditated first-degree murder in the shooting of another man in Leavenworth the day after Christmas 2008.

Others who’ve received a Hard 50 sentence from a judge include Scott Roeder, convicted of the May 2009 death of Dr. George Tiller, who was among a few U.S. physicians known to perform abortions in the last weeks of pregnancy. Tiller was gunned down in the foyer of his Wichita church.

GRAND ISLAND, N.Y. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A 112-yearold self-taught musician, coal miner and gin rummy aficionado from western New York is the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest man, according to Guinness World Records Ltd. Salustiano SanchezBlazquez became the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest man when Jiroemon Kimura died June 12 at age 116.

The worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest person is a woman, 115-year-old Misao Okawa of Japan.

Guinness World Records used census reports, immigration papers, marriage records and news reports to confirm the record.

Robert Young, senior gerontology consultant with Guinness World Records, said 90 percent of all supercentenarians are female and Salustiano is currently the only male born in 1901 with proof of birth.

Born June 8, 1901, in village of El Tejado de Bejar, Spain, he was known for his talent on the dulzania, a doublereed wind instrument that he taught himself and played at weddings and village celebrations. At 17, he moved with his older brother Pedro and a group of friends to Cuba, where they worked in the cane fields.

In 1920, he came to the United States through Ellis Island and worked in the coal mines of Lynch, Ky. Ultimately, he moved to the Niagara Falls area of New York, where he still lives, working in construction and in the industrial furnaces. He married his wife, Pearl, in 1934.

In a statement provided by Guinness World Records, Salustiano â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whose nickname is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shortyâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; said he was humbled by the attention, saying he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel he accomplished anything special just because he has lived longer than most. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He says, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m an old man and letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leave it at that,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said his daughter, 69-year-old Irene Johnson.

Salustiano lived with Johnson in Grand Island after his wife died in 1988; he moved to a nursing home in 2007.

him somewhere just because he was old.â&#x20AC;?

Salustiano said his longevity can be at-

tributed to eating one banana per day and his daily dose of six Anacin tablets. His daughter has another theory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an independent, stubborn man,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Besides his daughter, he has a 76-year-old son, John, seven grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren and five greatgreat-grandchildren.

The oldest authenticated person was Jeanne Louise Calment of France, who died at the age of 122 years and 164 days.

Indians one step closer to state Whitcomb’s no-hitter leads way in 9-0 win

By RICHARD LUKEN

richard@iolaregister.com

Another masterful pitching performance has Iola’s AA American Legion squad on the cusp of another trip to the state tournament to defend its 2012 state championship.

The Post 15 Indians rode the right arm of Nathan Whitcomb to a 9-0 win over Osawatomie Wednesday in the semifinals of the AA Zone 3 Tournament.

Whitcomb struck out 11 in his five-inning no-hitter, allowing Osawatomie to put four balls in play. Only one Osawatomie player — leadoff hitter Austin Chisam — was able to hit the ball out of the infield.

“I can’t say enough about Nathan’s pitching tonight,” Iola head coach Roland Weir said. “He’s pitched better in his last three starts than he has all season long.”

Whitcomb entered the game, mind you, with a 7-1 record and a 1.44 earned run average.

“I could tell pretty early I had command of my pitches tonight,” Whitcomb said, deflecting the praise to Iola assistant coach Bruce Faulhaber, who has worked with the pitchers through the summer.

“Bruce has been doing a good job on making adjustments.”

IOLA’S OFFENSE found its stride the second day back after a nine-day layoff.

Levi Ashmore again was a catalyst, blasting a leadoff triple for the second straight game to set up the Indians’ first run.

Iola’s Nathan Whitcomb, above at center, scrambles back to first base after drilling a two-run single in the Post 15 Indians’ 9-0 win over Osawatomie. Whitcomb also pitched a no-hitter to pace Iola. At bottom left, Jarred Latta went 2-for-4 for Iola with a run scored. At bottom right, the Indians’ Mason Coons fires to first to throw out an Osawatomie runner.

A leadoff walk to Trent Latta in the third led to Mason Coons’ sacrifice fly, putting Iola on top 2-0. Whitcomb aided his own cause three batters later with a two-run single on a 3-2 count with two outs.

“Nathan’s hit was big,” Weir said. “We missed a couple of early opportunities, but that got us going, and then we started getting production up and down the lineup.”

Three straight walks and an error turned into a fiverun fourth inning. Coons had another sac fly, while Derick Weir and Braden Larson smacked RBI singles.

The closest Osawatomie came to scoring was in the top of the second when Whitcomb walked the leadoff batter and hit another player with one out. He promptly struck out See IOLA | Page B2

Youngsters learn about spirituality, sporting basics at First Baptist Church summer camp

Macha shoots 76 at Kansas Amateur MISSION HILLS — Iolan Kaden Macha wrapped up his participation Wednesday at the Kansas Amateur Championship with a second-round 76. The score was one stroke better than Macha’s opening round score of 77.

Macha is the defending

Kansas Class 4A champion.

He finished at 13-over-par, which put him in a tie for 94th overall.

Trey Herman of Hays shot a second-round 67 to win the tournament by one shot over Kyle Weldon of St. Louis.

The tournament was at Indian Hills Country Club.

Teaching about more than sports

By RICHARD LUKEN

richard@iolaregister.com

Scores of youngsters are coming “off the bench” this week to learn about sports, as well as their relationships with God. Iola’s First Baptist Church, in conjunction with Uncharted Waters Sports Ministry, is

in the midst of its weeklong summer sports camp, geared to youngsters ages 4-12.

A team of visiting coaches from UW, based in Colorado Springs, is at the church through Friday to instruct the children on soccer, football and basketball, as well as cheerleading and drama, said

Levi Marti, head coach of the six visiting instructors.

Marti also oversees soccer drills.

Each day begins with a group song and dance session before the students break into their various sports, where See CAMP | Page B2

TOPEKA — Iola High junior-to-be Emily Klubek is in Topeka this week to share her musical talents as part of the 2013 Kansas Shrine Bowl.

Klubek will join more than 200 other musicians as part of the Kansas Shrine Bowl Band.

She arrived in Topeka Tuesday for a band camp and will march in Saturday’s parade and perform during halftime of the football game, pitting of some of the brightest gridiron stars in Kansas.

Klubek’s father, Kelly, shared a saying about Emily’s philosophy toward high school band.

“Not to take anything away from the game and the athletes, but without the band, it is just a game,”

Kelly Klubek said.

Y o u n g Klubek plays the trumpet.

Her dream is to participate in a drum and Emily Klubek bugle corps.

The 40th annual Shrine Bowl will kick off at 7 p.m. at Washburn University’s Yager Stadium.

Tickets and additional information are available at www.kansasshrinebowl. com, or by calling (800) 5305524.

Among the football stars participating in Saturday’s game is former Crest standout Kyle Hammond, who will take his football pursuits to Fort Scott Community College this fall.

they go through a number of warmup exercises and visits with other FBC members to talk about reflections on God, life or other topics.

Then, the drills begin.

The week begins with the basic fundamentals of each sport, then slowly begins adding more developed concepts.

Each day has a theme, tied to the “B-E-N-C-H,” Marti explained.

Monday’s theme was “Be Prepared,” while Tuesday’s focused on “Encouragement.”

On Wednesday, the instructors taught the youngsters how to “Narrow Your Focus,” Today’s will be “Change the Outcome” and Friday will wrap up the week with “Bring Hope to Others.”

“The kids get a lot out of this, and I think we instructors do, too,” said Marti.

The visiting instructors have hosted camps from across the country — 11 other teams are doing likewise — for the past seven weeks.

“We have camps from Virginia and Florida to California and Hawaii,” Marti said. “We have a lot of fun doing it.”

The impetus behind the summer sports camp was to find a new approach for summer activities for young-

Yanks, A-Rod at odds on ‘injury’ TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A doctor retained by Alex Rodriguez for a second opinion — one that contradicted the New York Yankees’ diagnosis of his leg injury Wednesday — was reprimanded this year by New Jersey’s board of medical examiners over steroid prescriptions.

Rodriguez is one of more than a dozen players under investigation

by Major League Baseball for alleged ties to a Florida clinic accused of distributing performance-enhancing drugs.

The New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners filed an order of reprimand against Dr. Michael Gross on Feb. 13 for his conduct at his Active Center for Health & Wellness.

“The board ordered and Dr. Gross agreed to be formally reprimand(ed) for permitting an individual who had completed medical school but did not have a medical license to participate

in the care and treatment of patients at the center and failing to adequately ensure proper patient treatment involving the prescribing of hormones including steroids at the center,” according to the disciplinary summary on the New Jersey Attorney General’s division of consumer affairs website.

The orthopedist was fined $30,000 and ordered to pay $10,000 in costs.

The New York Daily News first reported the reprimand Wednesday and said MLB would expand its drug probe to examine Rodriguez’s relationship with Gross.

Rodriguez was diagnosed Sunday with a strained left quadriceps

on the final day of his injury rehabilitation assignment. At the time, the Yankees said the three-time MVP was examined by team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad at New YorkPresbyterian Hospital, where an MRI was performed. The team said Rodriguez had a grade one strain, which is the least severe type, and would return to Tampa for rest and treatment.

But Gross said during an interview on WFAN radio Wednesday that he examined Rodriguez’s scan earlier in the day.

“To be perfectly honest, I don’t see any sort of injury there,” Gross said. “It’s such a small thing that you might not

Whitcomb struck out nine of the final 12 batters of the game.

IOLA (35-3) will play at 8 o’clock tonight at the Allen Community College diamond against either Osawatomie or Fort Scott, who will face off at 6 in an elimination game. Fort Scott advanced to the consolation finals by scoring three runs in the bottom of the seventh of a 6-5 win over Garnett.

“Both are quality teams,” Roland Weir said. “We aren’t going to take anybody for granted.”

In Iola’s favor is that the Indians still have two front-line pitchers, Coons and Trent Latta, fully rested.

“Getting Nathan on this team really helped fill out our pitching staff,” Weir said. “We have four quality starters I’m not afraid to put out there at any time.”

“We’ve said all along that we don’t think any-

body can beat us twice,” Whitcomb said, noting Iola would have to lose tonight and Friday to fall short of the state tournament. “We’re exactly where we want to be.”

Gross never personally examined Rodriguez and based his diagnosis on the MRI. He didn’t return a telephone message left at his office.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Eric Hosmer was looking to make amends for his error that led to two unearned runs.

Hosmer hit two homer and Alcides Escobar drove in the winning run in the ninth to lift the Kansas City Royals to a 4-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday night.

After Hosmer failed to handle Adam Jones’ bouncer in the fourth, Matt Wieters hit a tworun two-out homer off Ervin Santana.

“It stinks when you make an error and two batters later a guy hits a two-run homer,” Hosmer said. “I wanted a chance to redeem myself.”

Both of Hosmer’s home runs were off left-hander Wei-Yen Chen. Hosmer is hitting .333 against lefthanders.

“I guess so,” Hosmer said. “That’s what the numbers say.”

But he entered the game with only one home run in 104 at-bats off left-handers.

Hosmer homered in the first and his tworun home run in the eighth tied the score at 3. It was Hosmer’s third career multihomer game and his second this season.

David Lough singled and scored the gameending run when Escobar doubled off the fence in left-center with one out in the ninth.

“When I hit it, I thought there was a chance it was gone,” Escobar said. “I wasn’t trying to hit a home run.”

Instead, Nate

McLouth nearly caught it at the wall.

“I was about 3, 4, 5 inches away from catching it,” McLouth said. “I didn’t miss it by very much.”

Instead, the ball kicked away off the top padding, giving Lough enough time to score from first.

Darren O’Day (5-1) took the loss, while Luke Hochevar (3-1), picked up the victory after working a scoreless ninth.

“I was trying to throw away and it got in,” O’Day said of Escobar’s first-pitch double “Nate gave it a good try.”

Chen, who went on the disabled list May 13 with a right oblique strain before returning July 10, departed after Hosmer’s second home run with Lorenzo Cain aboard with one out in the eighth.

Chen gave up a home run to Hosmer on a full-count pitch in the first inning. Chen had not permitted a home run in his previous four starts.

He retired the next 12 hitters after Hosmer’s first home run until Escobar’s single in the fifth.

“He just made a couple of mistakes and the ball ran back over the plate,” Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. “They were very similar pitches.

He was really good.

“He threw the ball really well. For us not to score much and still have the lead, that’s a tribute to Santana and Chen, both. I thought Wei-Yin pitched as well as Santana did, or better.”

U.S. advances to Gold Cup final ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — By even the very high standards of coach Jurgen Klinsmann, Landon Donovan is regaining top form after taking a break from the national team.

Donovan scored two goals and set up another on Wednesday night, helping the United States beat Honduras 3-1 to advance to the CONCACAF Gold Cup final.

Klinsmann said the performance was “wonderful to watch.”

“I have told him in our conversations that ‘I measure you.

Your benchmark is the best Landon Donovan ever,’” Klinsmann said.

“I’m not taking anything less than that.

And he is trying to catch up with that. Give him more games. Give him time.”

The Americans will

play Pamama, a 2-1 winner over Mexico in the second semifinal, on Sunday in Chicago. The U.S. has won a team-record 10 straight games.

While Klinsmann has declined to confirm that Donovan will be rejoining the World Cup qualifying team later this year, the top goal scorer in U.S. history is leaving little doubt that he belongs.

Donovan has five goals in the tournament, tying him with teammate Chris Wondolowski for most in the Gold Cup. Donovan has set up seven goals, including four in the last two games.

Entering the game, he was the only U.S. player to play every minute of the tournament. He finally was subbed out in the 72nd minute, having earned a rest.

“It’s the most relaxed I’ve felt,” Donovan said.

Public notice (First Published in The Iola Register July 25, 2013)

“I feel good, and I’m really enjoying it.”

The U.S. struck first when Donovan found Eddie Johnson running through the middle of the Honduran defense.

Johnson took a dribble and powered a shot past goalkeeper Donis Escober, giving the U.S. a lead 11 minutes into the game.

In the 27th minute, Johnson started another scoring sequence with a pass to midfielder Alejandro Bedoya. Donovan received Bedoya’s short chip off his chest in the middle of the goal box and poked a shot past Escober.

“The first 30 minutes was brilliant football.

Brilliant, high pressure, high tempo,” Klinsmann said. “We wanted to move the football around and create chances, and that’s what we did.”

That’s because for the next 2 days Vault Bags containing valuable U.S. Gov’t issued coins are actually being handed over to Iola area residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication.

“Now that the bags of money are up for grabs Kansas residents are claiming as many as they can get before they’re all gone. That’s because after the Vault Bags were loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins the bags were sealed for good. But, we do know that some of the coins date clear back to the early 1900s, including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued nickels, dimes and quarter dollars, so there’s no telling what you’ll find until you sort through all the coins,” said Timothy J. Shissler, Chief Numismatist for the private World Reserve.

The only thing residents need to do is find their zip code on the Distribution List printed in today’s publication. If their zip code is on the list, they need to immediately call the National Claim Hotline before the 2-day order deadline ends.

Everyone who does is being given the 90% pure Silver Walking Liberty coin for free just by covering the fee for each Vault Bag loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins for only $99 each as long as they call before the deadline ends.

Since this advertising announcement can’t stop dealers and collectors from hoarding any of the valuable coins they can get their hands on, the World Reserve had to set a strict limit of ten Vault Bags per resident.

“Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but those who get in on this now will be the really smart ones. Just think what some of these coins could be worth someday,” said Shissler.

Each Vault Bag is loaded in part with highly sought after collector coins dating clear back to the 1900s including a 90% pure Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollar, an Eisenhower Dollar, some of the last ever minted U.S. Dollars, Kennedy Half Dollars, Silver Mercury Dimes, rarely seen Liberty ‘V’ Nickels, nearly 100 year old Buffalo Nickels and a big scoop of unsearched currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued nickels, dimes and quarter dollars.

“We’re bracing for all the calls because there are just hours left for residents to get the Silver Walking Liberty coin free,” he said.

So, Iola area residents lucky enough to find their zip code listed in today’s publication need to immediately call the National Claim Hotlines before the 2-day deadline ends to get the Silver Walking Liberty coin free. If lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered. N

VALUABLE: 90% PURE SILVER

FREE: WALKING LIBERTY RED BOOK COLLECTOR VALUE $15 to $325

ENLARGED TO SHOW DETAIL. YEAR VARIES 1916-1947

How to claim the bags of U.S. Gov’t issued coins: Read the important information listed below about claiming the Vault Bags. Then call the National Claim Hotline before the 2-day deadline ends at: 1-888-282-6742 Who gets to claim the bags of money: Thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the money. Now Iola area residents who find the first two digits of their zip code listed in today’s publication and beat the 2-day deadline get to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside.

I keep calling and can’t get through: That’s because each Vault Bag is guaranteed to contain a free Silver Walking Liberty coin and just that one coin alone could be worth $15-$325 in collector value. So thousands of residents are calling to claim as many Vault Bags as they can get before they’re all gone. In fact, since the Vault Bag fee is just $ 99 everyone is claiming as many bags as they can before the deadline ends. So if lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered.

How much are the Vault Bags worth: Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but here’s why Kansas residents are claiming as many Vault Bags as they can get before they’re all gone. After the Vault Bags were loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and a big scoop of unsearched currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued coins the bags were sealed for good. But we do know that some of the coins date back to the 1900s. That means there’s no telling what you’ll find until you sort through all the coins. So you better believe at just $ 99 the Vault Bag fee is a real steal since the free Silver Walking Liberty coin alone could be worth from $15 to $325 in collector value.

Are the Silver Walking Liberty coins really Free: Yes. All Iola area residents who beat the 2-day deadline are instantly being awarded a Silver Walking Liberty coin issued by the U.S. Gov’t between 1916-1947 free with each Vault Bag they claim.

Why is the Vault Bag fee so low: Because thousands of U.S. residents have missed the deadline to claim the money the World Reserve has re-allocated Vault Bags that will be scheduled to be sent out in the ne xt 2 days. That means the money is up for grabs and now any resident who finds the first two digits of their zip code on the Distribution List below gets to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside. Each Vault Bag fee is set at $149 for residents who miss the 2 day deadline, but for those who beat the 2-day deadline the Vault Bag fee is just $ 99 as long as they call the National Claim Hotline before the deadline ends at: 1-888-282-6742.

UNITED STATES ZIP CODE DISTRIBUTION LIST

N LOADED WITH OVER 100 COINS: The phone lines are ringing off the hook. That’s because thousands of sealed Vault Bags each loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the early 1900s including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and currently circulating coins are being handed over to Iola area residents.

Public notices (First published in The Iola Register, July 25, 2013) RESOLUTION NO.201308 ALLEN COUNTY, KANSAS A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF ALLEN COUNTY, KANSAS, RESTRICTING WEIGHTS AND SPEEDS OF VEHICLES ON A PORTION OF DELAWARE ROAD WHEREAS, K.S.A. 19-101a, and amendments thereto, provides that the Board of County Commissioners shall have home rule authority to legislate on matters of local concern; and WHEREAS, K.S.A. 8-2002, and amendments thereto, authorizes the Board of County Commissioners to prohibit or regulate the use of heavily traveled streets by any class or kind of traffic that is found incompatible with normal and safe movement of traffic; and WHEREAS, K.S.A. 8-1912, and amendments thereto, authorizes the Board of County Commissioners to prohibit the operation of trucks or other commercial vehicles on designated roadways; and WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners has received comment from Public Works’ staff concerning the use of certain designated county-maintained streets and roadways by truck traffic, NOW, THEREFORE, based upon all matters known and presented to it, the Board of County Commissioners finds and concludes that: 1. That a portion of Delaware Road in Allen County lying between 2200 Street on the west and 4200 Street on the east has been subjected to excess and unnecessary truck traffic.

2. Truck traffic over this countymaintained road contributes to accelerated wear and tear of the roadway surfaces, which are not designed for truck traffic. In addition, portions of this road are used by local automobile and other traffic and are not suitable or safe as through ways for truck traffic.

3. Alternative roads are available for truck traffic to travel.

4. It is in the best interests of the public safety and is reasonable and advisable to restrict the weights and speeds on that portion of Delaware Road described above.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Allen County, Kansas, that the following traffic regulation be and hereby is adopted: SECTION I. CERTAIN VEHICLES REGULATED From and after the effective date of this Resolution, the use or operation of any vehicle or combination of vehicles exceeding the maximum registered gross vehicle weight (“GVW”) of 30,000 pounds upon that portion of Delaware Road lying between 2200 Street on the west and 4200 Street on the east shall be and hereby is prohibited except in the manner and for the purposes allowed pursuant to Section III. Further, until further notice, the speed limit on said portion of Delaware Road shall be reduced to 45 MPH. SECTION II. DEFINITION OF “VEHICLE” As used in this Resolution, the word “vehicle” means every device, or combination of devices, used for the transportation of any person or property upon a street or roadway.

SECTION III. PERMITTED AND EXCEPTED USES The limitation on vehicle usage specified in Section I shall not be applicable to vehicles which are engaged in any of the following: 1. Emergency services by any

DAILY CRYPTOQUOTES - Here’s how to work it:

Sudoku is like a crossword puzzle, but uses numbers instead of words.

The puzzle is a box of 81 squares, subdivided into 3x3 cubes of 9 squares each. Some squares are filled in with numbers. The rest should be filled in by the puzzler. Fill in the blank squares allowing the numbers 1-9 to appear only once in every row, once in every column and once in every 3x3 box. One-star puzzles are for beginners, and the difficulty gradually increases through the week to a very challenging fivestar puzzle.

Several elementary school football players were at Riverside Park Wednesday to learn the basics of quarterback play for the first session of a two-night quarterback camp hosted by Iola High football coach Doug Kerr. Above, Brady Wiggin throws from his knees during a drill in front of former Mustang Charles Apt, who volunteered his services for the session. At right, Kerr demonstrates the proper release point during another drill. Also helping with the camp were Iola alum Mason Coons and IHS assistant coach Mike Aronson.

NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dillon wins on the dirt along the street entering the track and turned Eldora into the site of Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest party.

Not bad considering rural Rossburg has a population of 20.

If fans werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t chugging beers, they sipped the trackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s signature drink,

Toilet Water. Just some vodka, with orange juice and 7-Up. Oh, and a Tootsie Roll plopped in the yellowish concoction for fun.

They got quite a show.

The trucks skidded and slid around the track, mashed and bashed against the wall and

ROSSBURG, Ohio (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Austin Dillon left the rest of the field in his dust to win NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return to dirt racing in the Truck Series races at Eldora Speedway.

Dillon pulled away in the green-white-checkered finish Wednesday night to complete a thrilling return to the muck of the clumpy dirt track. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is real racing right here,â&#x20AC;? said Dillon, a regular in the Nationwide Series.

The last time one of NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top touring series competed on dirt was Sept. 30, 1970, when Richard Petty won a Sprint Cup â&#x20AC;&#x201D; called the Grand National Division at that time â&#x20AC;&#x201D; race at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds in Raleigh.

That drought ended with racing that started early in the day and bled into late night at the Tony Stewart-owned half-mile track.

NASCAR returned to dirt in an attempt to reconnect with its roots and give fans raised on asphalt and stock cars a taste of the slides and wall-banging that are staples of the surface.

Looks like NASCAR will have to come back.

Fans packed the track that opened in 1954, a rare feat for a series that often runs in front of mostly empty grandstands as a support race in a Sprint Cup weekend.

About 20,000 fans spread out on the grassy hills or creaky wooden bleachers; most seats with a hand-painted number.

They camped out
