Supreme Court to rule on entrenching political power By DAVID G. SAVAGE Tribune Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON (TNS) — The Supreme Court said Monday it will hear a closely watched challenge to partisan gerrymandering in Wisconsin and decide whether it is unconstitutional for party leaders to entrench themselves in power with carefully drawn electoral maps. The case of Gill vs. Whitford is to be heard in the fall,
and it could yield one of the most important rulings on political power in decades. Democrats maintain the GOP has used its control of state legislatures to give Republicans an unfair grip on power in the House of Representatives. For example, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan are closely contested, but 34 of their 48 representatives in the House are Republicans. Democrats do the same, but control fewer
states. Republican lawyers say their party’s advantage reflects the “reality of political geography.” They say Democratic voters are concentrated in the cities, giving the GOP a big edge elsewhere. But it is also true that statewide maps can be drawn in a way to give one party a clear advantage in most of the districts. After Republicans won big in the 2010 midterm elec-
tions, Wisconsin’s Republican leaders drew a statewide map that allowed the GOP to retain a super-majority in the state Assembly even in years when most of the voters cast ballots for Democrats. In 2012, Republicans won 48.6 percent of the two-party vote for Legislature, but still won 60 of the 99 seats in the Assembly. Several Democratic voters joined a lawsuit contending this partisan electoral map
violated their rights to an equal vote. Last year, a three-judge federal court broke new ground when it ruled the map was unconstitutional because its “motivating factor” was an “intent to entrench a political party in power.” By a 2-1 vote, the judges said the plan was an “unconstitutional partisan gerrymander.” In the past, the Supreme Court has struck down racial See POWER | Page A3
Cut fiber optic line disrupts phone service A cut fiber optic line disrupted telephone service across the state Monday, including several Allen County institutions. Affected were Allen County’s 911 dispatch center, Allen County Regional Hospital, Allen Community College and local AT&T customers. The outage occurred after a Southeast Kansas farmer cut into a cable Monday afternoon while digging up ground to make a pond, said Allen County
911 director Angela Murphy. The incident did not occur in Allen County, she said. The outage extended as far as Wichita and Salina. Service was restored about 2:25 a.m. today. While telephone service was unavailable to the hospital and community college, calls to Allen County’s 911 center were routed to dispatchers in Fort Scott. Pertinent information then was radioed to Allen County.
Allen Summer Youth Theatre musical begins Friday Be sure to get your boogie-woogie to the Allen Summer Youth Theatre’s production of “Jump ‘n’ Jive Juliet,” a big-band take on “Romeo and Juliet,” which pits the rivalrous families in a jitterbug faceoff in 1940s Venice Beach, Calif.

Gazers to view a bit of Deja Nu By SHELLIE SMITLEY The Iola Register
Customers shopping for affordable fashions on Madison Avenue this August may sense a bit of Deja Nu. Affordable Fashions Consignment, at 106 S. Washington Ave., is relocating and morphing into a new store named Deja Nu. Owner Tabatha Wilson is hoping to move the consignment shop into the former “Classy Attic” building at 15 E. Madison Ave. by August. An overflow of inventory and some new items have prompted the relocation. “We need to expand,” said Wilson. The current store was a great place to
get started and see how the business would do, she said. The response to Affordable Fashions Consignment, since it opened in February 2017, has been favorable. The new store will provide 4,600 square feet of showroom and allow Wilson to stock racks and shelves with new items such as boutique clothes for children, LED shoes, never worn men’s and women’s clothing, small antique furniture pieces and gifts, in addition to generally worn consignment items. “We are always taking in new consignments” Wilson said. “Right now we are taking in all seasons.” See DEJA NU | Page A3

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea’s missile and nuclear tests, its carefully scripted propaganda bluster, even its military threats: Far from the scattershot workings of a madman, most of this fits the playbook of a small, proud country well used to stoking tensions to get concessions it would otherwise not receive from surrounding big powers. What happened to Otto Warmbier, an American college student who died just days after North Korea released him from detention in a coma, is far more difficult to make sense of. It jars so strikingly with the fates of most past detained Americans that outside observers are left struggling not only with the mystery of what killed Warmbier but also with what his death means for attempts by Washington and its allies to stop North Korea’s pursuit of a nuclear-tipped ICBM

the GOP was virtually guaranteed to control the Legislature for the entire decade. Wisconsin's attorney general appealed to the Supreme Court. The state's lawyers said the districts were compact and neatly drawn. They are not oddly shaped and do not look like a classic gerrymander. They argued that the Democrats are at a disadvantage because their voters are concentrated in Milwaukee and Madison. They urged the court to overturn the lower-court ruling and throw out the claim on the grounds that redistricting is a political process, not a legal one.

that can target the U.S. mainland. Some observers believe that North Korea became worried because Warmbier’s condition suddenly worsened. “The treatment of Otto Warmbier is beyond the pale of North Korea’s usual standards,” said John Delury, an Asia expert at Seoul’s Yonsei University. “It’s worth a forceful response.

gerrymandering as unconstitutional, but it has never agreed to strike down a state's electoral map on the grounds it was overly partisan. This is so in part because the justices have been unable to agree on a legal rule for deciding the issue. In most states, elected officials usually redraw the district maps once a decade for electing candidates to the state legislature and the U.S. House of Representatives. And typically, they draw districts to protect their incumbents and give their party an edge. The challengers in the Wisconsin case argued that the state's electoral map was carefully drawn so that

Woman reunited with lost tortoise CLEVELAND (AP) — A wayward tortoise’s surprising trek around Ohio has ended happily for its owner, whose two-week search, in a twist of fate, might have saved her sister’s life. Otis the California desert tortoise managed to push open a sliding glass door and escape from Kathie Heisinger’s home in Sebring in Mahoning County on May 30. Heisinger created flyers offering a $200 reward that was quickly matched by the Sebring Volunteer Fire Department, prompting her to make the reward $500 total. Village residents soon joined Heisinger in her search around Sebring. “There are a lot of good people in the
world,” Heisinger said. Otis quickly became a minor celebrity. Facebook posts and shares, newspaper and television stories and the flyers led to more than 100 phone calls from people who believed they had spotted him. Heisinger then heard rumors that employees of an amusement company working the Sebring Fireman’s Festival the weekend Otis went missing might have scooped him up. She called the company headquartered 20 miles away in Stark County and the owner told Heisinger his employees had indeed taken possession of Otis — at least temporarily. Otis had once again escaped after knocking over the cardboard box
the workers thought would contain him. The owner kicked in another $200 to make the reward $700, and Heisinger, her sister and friends resumed their search. But by this time, Otis already had found another new home. Tyren O’Steen spotted the tortoise on a road near the amusement company and thought it would make a good pet for his three children. Then last week, after reading a newspaper story about Otis, O’Steen called Heisinger, who was reunited with her beloved pet of 25 years. “I could tell the tortoise meant a lot to her,” O’Steen told another newspaper that publicized Heisinger’s plight, The Alliance Review.

To stay lean and mean: Eat green (and lots of it) By KATHY MCEWAN Southwind Extension
When some people hear the word “salad,” they think of a small bowl of leafy greens and creamy dressing that must be struggled through before the arrival of their steak or chicken. While a salad often precedes the main course in restaurants, a salad can also serve as the main course — or the only course. Chefs, dietitians, even bloggers and “foodies” are taking on salads these days, and pushing them in new directions. “I think we’re seeing some new trends and ideas out there that really are widening our view of what a salad is, and what the components of it might be,” said Sandy Procter, K-State Research and Extension nutrition specialist. One of my summertime favorites is a grilled romaine salad that is topped with smoked meat, corn, black beans and other “Southwest” flavors. For many, the base of a salad continues to be vegetables, usually one of the many varieties of lettuce. Add other vegetables, maybe some protein, and a dressing and you have a basic salad. Procter says this is a great way to add vegetables and fruits to your diet. “Even those of us that already make an emphasis on that probably aren’t going to suffer if we have a few more,”
she said. There are four healthy reasons for adding more salads to our nutrition plan: Fiber — “Most of us don’t get enough fiber in our diet, and it works together with exercise to keep our digestive systems healthy and prevent some of the common chronic diseases of the day, including cancer,” Procter said. Phytonutrients — These natural, plant-derived chemicals aren’t as critical as vitamins and minerals (also found in plants), but things like carotenoids and flavonoids help make us resistant to diseases and can slow down the aging process. “Volumetrics” — If you’re one of those people that could stand to shed a few pounds, a properly designed salad can help you do this. The concept
of volumetrics is that by eating larger portions of healthy foods, you’ll feel more satisfied. As an example, two apples have roughly the same number of calories as one candy
it’s not uncommon to find them in a salad. “So many of the salads we see featured now in restaurants have the option of adding avocado,” said Procter. “Avocado has a really nice

bar, but the apples have more fiber and are bigger, therefore helping you feel fuller. Great source of “smart fats” — We often think of “fat” as something that should be avoided in our diets, but not all fats are equal. Plant-based fats such as olive oil, nuts and seeds are good fats, and
sense of satiety because it’s kind of creamy, but yet it’s not like sour cream which is a saturated fat — avocado has this healthy plant-based fat that can really add a lot of nutrition to your diet.” When a salad becomes a main course, protein frequently becomes part of the lineup. Procter said
while chicken and steak are popular options, protein doesn’t have to be limited to meat. Eggs, cheeses, nuts and seeds can deliver protein to a salad. Quinoa (“KEEN-wah”) is a protein rich grain that can be served warm or chilled, after it’s been cooked. “Quinoa is very high in protein and can add a lot to a salad,” she said. “It’s kind of crunchy and adds an interesting flavor. It brings a lot of protein to the plate as well.” The biggest obstacle to taking a salad to work for lunch is keeping it cold. This can be accomplished by packing your salad with a frozen bottle of water or a reusable “chill pack” from your freezer. Procter says one of the newest trends in brownbagging salad is an old standby from your grandmother’s kitchen: the Mason jar or canning jar. “The beauty of the Mason jar salad is that dressing goes in the bottom, followed by whatever ingredients you choose — you can see each layer and portion them out. Add the leafy greens last, screw on the lid, and then it’s easy to transport. The glass can stay cold longer than plastic. Give it a good shake when it’s time to eat,” she said. “Also, the glass doesn’t absorb flavors as many plastics do, so you can carry balsamic vinegar one day and blue cheese the next, and those flavors aren’t going to be blended.
Glass is easy to wash up and use the next day.” Whether for a school lunch or a meal at home, a salad provides younger family members an opportunity to assemble their favorites. “Research has proven that vegetables and fruits are well received when a child has a chance to choose their favorites, to go through something like a salad bar and make those selections themselves.” Salads also provide an impetus for frequenting local farmers’ markets to take advantage of locally grown fresh produce. Seasonal fruits and vegetables can be found at a good price, and the flavor is unbeatable. Available produce is increasing each week and currently includes new potatoes, green beans, onions, squash and zucchini, cucumbers, kale, chard, and some berries. Soon tomatoes and corn will be showing up depending on local availability. Check out your farmers’ market and see what’s there! “Salads are really nice way to widen people’s thoughts about what vegetables can be,” concluded Procter. “Not necessarily cooked and hot all the time — those cold, crisp bite-sized vegetables can be really welcoming on a warm summer’s day.” For more information about foods and nutrition, contact Kathy at 620-3652242 or by email at kmcewan@ksu.edu.
Tips for keeping your home cool during the summer months With summer temperatures on the rise, now is the time to look for alternatives to save a few dollars while trying to cool the home. K-State Research and Extension offers the following advice:
Can ceiling fans effectively reduce air-conditioning costs?
Any type of fan can be effective in reducing airconditioning costs if the air movement helps occupants feel comfortable and results in increasing the thermostat temperature setting. If the air conditioning thermostat setting is not increased, there are no savings. The cooling effect of moving air can compensate for as much as a four-degree rise in temperature. Keep in mind, that during the heating season, the air movement caused by the fan will still have the same cooling effect.
How can I keep my home cooler in the summer without air conditioning?
The simplest, least expensive method to keep a home cool is shading walls, windows, and the roof. Interior shades are inexpensive and easy to install. Use pull-down or Venetian blinds in addition to regular window coverings. Window coverings should be light

colored (white or beige). There are several ways to keep a home cool without overusing the air conditioner. Of these options, install shades first. Compare utility bills before and after the installation of shades. If satisfied with the savings, stop there, but if savings are not significant, look into other options. One option to consider is exterior awnings. They are more expensive than interior shades, but would be a great way to shade south windows. Natural shading is another way to block heat gain in summer. For example, plant broad-leafed trees on the south and west sides of the home. They shade a home in summer months and will let in sunlight during winter months when they have shed their leaves. Certain steps will help keep a home warm in winter and will help cool it during the summer. Insulated walls and roof reduce heat gain, just as they
lower heat loss in winter. As a general rule, ceiling insulation should have an R-value of 35 to 45, and walls from 19 to 27. A light-colored roof also decreases heat gain. Use the above suggestions, coupled with circulating fans inside the home, and utility bills will be less than if air conditioning was the only cooling source.
Is it better to leave the fan running continuously with the air conditioner or to place it in the automatic position?
It is more efficient to leave the thermostat in the automatic position. The fan consumes only one-tenth the energy of the compressor, but when it runs continuously, the fan can cost up to $30 a month. This amount can be reduced by cycling the fan only when it’s needed. Additionally, the air conditioner will dehumidify the only air when the compressor is running. However, if the fan remains on after the compressor cycles off, some moisture on the coil will re-evaporate. This moisture must be removed during the next compressor cycle, which increases the energy consumption. If air distribution is poor within the home or

business and hot spots or very cold areas result, the fan can be run to even out the temperatures. However, the fan should be set to the auto position when the building is unoccupied. Even better, shut the air conditioner off or raise the thermostat setting when leaving the building. Will I save energy by turning off my air conditioner when I leave home, or am I better off just letting it run? If gone for four hours or more, more energy will be saved by turning off the air conditioner or turning up the thermostat. During the day, keep windows shut and close curtains or blinds on any windows that will
be exposed to sunlight. The thermal mass of the house will probably keep the indoor temperature well below the outdoor temperature, and the house should cool quickly when the air conditioner is restarted.

Opinion A5 The Iola Register
Tuesday, June 20, 2017
~ Journalism that makes a difference
Good local causes always touch public Give local folks a good cause and they respond in droves. That occurred Saturday when LaHarpe VFW Auxiliary and Iola American Legion members set up shop with a bake sale outside Walmart. The goal was to raise $1,000 to purchase metal markers for veterans graves in the military enclave at Highland Cemetery. An advantage, for both, was that Le Roy Masons, with flags flying, were situated next door, selling raffle tickets to support a 2018 Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. “We both benefited by being next to each other,” said Maggie Barnett, one of the bake sale’s ramrods. By the time the last sweet treat was carted off, sale of baked goods had fetched $503. That wouldn’t have been enough to place markers at all graves. Not to worry, there’s more to the story, much more. By the time Barnett opened Monday morning’s mail, another $2,230 had been donated. “Lots of people drove up and gave donations,” she said, including $1,000 from Earl Croley, in honor of his deceased wife, Cinda, and $500 from Ron Fry. Several other gifts were remarkable, but donors declined to be mentioned. The outpouring of support opens the door for markers that will be more to the point for those they honor.
Initially, Barnett thought aluminum plaques atop stakes, with a place to insert a small flag and noted the grave held a veteran would be the plan for those that had none. Some — made of brass or bronze — were stolen several years ago when scrap metal prices spiked; other graves never had the special markers. With better than 2½ times as much money in hand than their goal, Barnett and her committee members may shift the project to include branch of service and when the person served. Also graves outside the military area will be fitted with metal markers, and some money will be held in reserve for veterans who later will join their deceased comrades. DONORS to virtually all good causes do so to recognize those to be honored or assist with a project in any number of ways or reasons. However, it behooves the Register — all of us, as a matter of fact — to publicly thank citizens who care enough to reach into their purses, billfolds or checkbooks and help out with a worthy cause. None is more worthy than recognizing those who have served the country, some of whom lost their lives in the process. What we do in recognition pales in comparison to what those honored sacrificed. — Bob Johnson
Rising cost of college hurts Kansas The University of Kansas’ 2.5 percent tuition increase, approved Thursday by the Board of Regents, seems like a bargain compared with recent years. In fact, it’s half the 5 percent increase the university implemented for the 201617 school year. But before undergraduates start celebrating, consider that the Kansas economy has been growing at an annual rate of less than 1 percent, and the tuition increase from 2015-16 to 2016-17 was nearly twice the rate of wage growth in the state. Overall, tuition at four-year public colleges and universities in Kansas has increased 21 percent from 201213 to 2016-17, the 12th-largest tuition increase among the 50 states.
Any tuition increase is difficult; increases that so rapidly outpace wage and income growth are especially burdensome, especially on middle-class families.
Any tuition increase is difficult; increases that so rapidly outpace wage and income growth are especially burdensome, especially on middleclass families. … Already, KU and Kansas State University students graduate with more debt than their peer universities in the region, according to Student Loan Report, which analyzed student loan debt of 2015 graduates
Fundraising vital to Tri-Valley’s ability to stay afloat The other day someone asked me how Tri-Valley was doing. For such a query, I have to stop and think about what kind of answer they’re seeking. Are they just being sociable? Do they want to know about our health and well being? Do they want to know how the budget cuts and changes in policies have affected the organization? I typically answer the last question because that is the one that usually garners the most interest. But this time I decided to tell them about our fundraising because without it, we would be in a world of hurt. We have coped with budget cuts and changes in policy many different ways over the last six years, all of which affect the people we serve and the general public. First, we reduced the number of services we provide. Several years ago we eliminated public transportation because it was not part of our mission, and we were losing money. That affected hundreds of people in our area. In addition, we eliminated our supported employment program called Project Search. We started building larger group homes in order to house more people. Thus clients receive less assistance, training, etc. We reduced the number of staff from 172 to 134, including upper and middle management. There have been other changes as well; too many to list here. In fact, we reached the point where our budget was bare bones several years ago and there is nothing else to cut except for essential direct care positions. That being said, without a rate increase in over 10 years
Tim Cunningham Tri-Valley Developmental Services
and the cuts themselves; fundraising has become the focal point in keeping us afloat. That money is used to purchase items, goods or services that we need but are not paid for through Medicaid, state grant funds or county mill levy contributions. The majority of that funding pays for wages. With what little is left over, we have to purchase appliances for the homes, vehicles (cars and buses), paper towels, insurance, fuel, workman’s comp insurance, employee physicals and background checks. The list can be endless. To put this into perspective, without fundraising and donations, we would not be able to continue in our current capacity. Instead of being the only one stop shop in our area for quality services, we would have to eliminate even more essential programs. That is not our intent though. Our intent is to be progressive and stay ahead of what is coming next. Here are two examples: This past year we received a large memorial from the Leon Cleaver Trust. Leon was a farmer from Fort Scott who was friends with a former Tri-Valley employee and through that contact, left the agency a large sum of money. That money will be used to purchase items, services and products that we otherwise would not be able to buy. Several years ago we received money from the Fish Fam-
ily Trust in Neosho County. Again, that money was used to purchase needed items. We even had an employee who lost his wife to cancer donate money in her name to purchase a new sound system and cable TV for our clients so they could view educational programming. Another one of our biggest expenses is building and maintaining homes for the people we serve. All homeowners know the expenses associated with owning a home. Now multiply that by six and you will reach what it costs us to maintain a home. We have larger homes and some of the people we serve can be very destructive. Sometimes we need to reinforce walls, replace broken windows, broken cabinet doors, furniture, etc. The income generated for
this comes from the Friends of Tri-Valley Foundation, which raises money through its annual golf tournament — this Saturday — the annual truck drawing, which is Friday, and our annual Cruise Night Gala. This generates enough revenue to provide quality, affordable housing to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The people of southeast Kansas are some of the most generous in the country. We take care of our own. We are compassionate, caring and willing to help those in need. I can say with utter confidence that without your support, we would not be in existence today. Thank you for everything you do to make the lives of people with disabilities better.
for public and private schools throughout the country. On average, KU graduates in the class of 2015 had $14,296 in debt. Fifty-two percent of KU graduates had student loan debt. Kansas State was similar: 58 percent of graduates had student loan debt and the average amount was $14,963. Among Big 12 schools, graduates of Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and TCU finished with less debt than Kansas and Kansas State. Only Texas Tech, West Virginia and Iowa State graduates had more debt. … Other state schools in the region with fewer indebted graduates and lower debt on average include Arkansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, Texas A&M; and the University of Illinois. For the 2017-18 academic year, KU will charge $4,908 per semester for in-state undergraduates, an increase of about $120 over last year. That’s not all; student fees will increase more than $500 per semester. Given continued decreases in state funding, it’s not surprising that KU and other universities continue to push the upper limits of tuition and fees. But there is a limit to what Kansas families can afford, and the rising indebtedness among graduates is a concerning indicator that KU is nearing that limit. — The Lawrence JournalWorld

Ambulance service is provided by mortuaries in Moran and Humboldt, but Iola, representing more than 40 percent of the county’s population, is now without ambulance service of any kind. The local ambulance service, subsidized by private subscription and city funds since late last summer, ceased Thursday when funds were cut off. The funds were no longer given to the local ambulance service because, according to city officials, it did not meet standards required by state law and the cost of bringing it up to these standards was prohibitive. ****
School lunch rates will go up 5 cents per meal next fall in 257 Unified School District. Board members took the action last night when Supt. of Schools Ennor Horine said the lunch program ran a $5,000 deficit during the past year. Increased food costs and wage rates were tagged as the primary reasons for the deficit, but also because of expenses incurred in operating the smaller, less efficient, systems in outlying attendance centers. The new rates for lunches are 35 cents for junior and senior high school students and 30 cents for elementary students. ****
21 — Cloudbursts north of Iola poured millions of gal-
lons of water into the Neosho River and at 11 a.m. today the river stood at 17 feet at the Iola city water plant. Flood stage is 15 feet. Rains, ranging from two to more than four inches, were reported in this area with similar deluges feeding the Neosho farther north. Elm, Rock, Deer and Coon creeks were all out of their banks at one time or another since the rains started in Allen County early today. The bridge over Elm Creek on South Kentucky was covered by three feet of water and U.S. 54 east of Iola was closed as water from Rock Creek flowed over the highway in two places. Officials said water is also covering South Washington.

A disaster supplies kit is a collection of basic items you may need in the event of an emergency. Try to assemble your kit well in advance of an emergency. You may have to evacuate at a moment’s notice and take essentials with you. You will probably not have time to search for the supplies you need or shop for them. You may need to survive on your own after an emergency. This means having your own food, water and other supplies in sufficient quantity to last for at least 72 hours. Local emergency responders will be on the scene after a disaster but they can’t reach everyone immediately. You could get help in hours or it might take days. Basic services such as electricity, gas, water, sewage treatment and telephones may be cut off for days or even a week. Your supplies kit should contain items to help you manage during these outages.

than a month away, Dillow’s Indians appear to be doing just that. On Monday, the Indians swept their northern rivals Garnett, 14-7 and 12-11. After the relative ease that the Indians dispatched Garnett with in the first game, the second looked to be a bit of a letdown early with Garnett taking a 10-2 lead into the bottom of the fourth. Dillow’s team kept coming though. “I’m extremely proud,” Dil-
low said. “It shows me that this team never quits and it never dies. For them to come back like that it proves it. It shows this team will never die. No matter the score, we won’t die.” In the home half of the fourth, a relatively new face to the Indians — but a familiar one to fans of Iola youth sports — Isaac Badders led off the inning with a single.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The fortunes of Jason Hammel and the Kansas City Royals have taken similar turns this season. Both started with high expectations, endured a miserable first month that left many fans writing them off, then found a spark somewhere along the way. Hammel’s latest starring role came Monday night, when he held the powerful Boston Red Sox in check for seven sharp innings. And when Whit Merrifield drove in the go-ahead run in the bottom of the seventh, and Mike Minor and Kelvin Herrera closed it out, the Royals had a 4-2 win — their eighth in nine games. “That’s about as good of a lineup as you’re going to run into,” Hammel said after his fourth straight quality start. “To keep them to six singles and a homer, I feel pretty good about it.” Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer and Lorenzo Cain also drove in a run for the Royals (34-35), who can climb back to .500 for the first time since April 19 with a win Tuesday night. Minor loaded the bases with two outs in the eighth, but No. See ROYALS | Page B3

HUMBOLDT — The Humboldt youth softball team has only had one loss this season going into Monday’s doubleheader against Neodesha. But that loss had come at the hands of the Streaks, so Brad Piley’s squad had something to prove on Monday. Brooklyn Ellis pitched her Humboldt team to a dominating 15-1 victory in game one as Humboldt piled on runs late. Game two was a much
more competitive game, but Humboldt was still able to take a 9-7 win. The defeat to Neodesha remains its only loss of the year as Humboldt continues to roll through the summer-league softball season.

Royals: Merrifield comes through late for win against Red Sox Continued from B1
9 hitter Christian Vazquez sent a slow bouncer toward third base that Cheslor Cuthbert fielded cleanly and fired to first to end the threat. Herrera worked around Andrew Benintendi’s triple in the ninth for his 16th save. Red Sox reliever Blaine Boyer (0-1), who
pitched out of a jam in the sixth, gave up a triple to Drew Butera in the seventh when Jackie Bradley Jr. couldn’t make a diving catch in center. The Royals brought in pinch-runner Ramon Torres, who scored when Merrifield sent a grounder through the left side. “He threw me some pitches to hit and I kept
missing,” Merrifield said. “Late, he started to throw me two-seamers and it was actually a pretty good pitch. I just found a hole.” It was the second straight game in which Boston’s stingy bullpen has allowed a pair of runs, the slump coming on the heels of 26 consecutive scoreless innings. Hammel (4-6) scattered seven hits without a walk, stranding seven along the way. The only damage against him came in the fourth. That’s when he gave up a leadoff single to Hanley Ramirez, and the hothitting Bradley sent a 1-0 pitch over the bullpen in right for a two-run homer that tied the game. Boston right-hander Hector Velazquez was nearly as good as Hammel in his second career start, carefully navigating a bunch of baserunners during the first two innings. Hosmer finally dinged him in the third with an estimated 446foot shot into the fountains in center. Velazquez turned it over to his faltering bullpen after giving up five hits in 5 1/3 innings.
“He gave us everything we could have hoped for tonight,” Red Sox manager John Farrell said. “You get a little bit of an idea and a game plan knocked out before the game and he did exactly what we would have hoped, which was to keep the game close, keep it under control and get us into the sixth inning.” TRAINER’S ROOM Red Sox: 2B Dustin Pedroia was out of the lineup after getting hit in the ribs by a pitch Sunday in Houston. An MRI came back negative. Farrell said Pedroia is day to day. ... LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (right knee) will face hitters this week before embarking on a rehab assignment. Royals: C Salvador Perez got the night off from the starting lineup, though he entered late when the Royals ran for Butera. The time off came as Perez deals with soreness in his side. SIGN ON THE LINE The Royals and firstround draft pick Nick Pratto agreed to a contract that includes a $3.45 million signing

bonus. The high school first baseman, chosen with the 14th overall selection, will head to rookie ball in Arizona today to begin his professional career. MAKING MOVES Royals RHP Kevin McCarthy was recalled from Triple-A Omaha and LHP Eric Skoglund was optioned back to the Storm Chasers before the game.

Sale comes off his best start in more than a month — and his first defeat during that span — when he takes the mound Tuesday. The major league leader in strikeouts allowed one run and four hits over eight innings with 10 strikeouts in a 1-0 loss at Philadelphia Thursday. Royals: LHP Matt Strahm makes his second career start after allowing one unearned run over five innings in a 7-2 win against the Angels last week. Strahm retired 14 of the final 16 batters he faced.

game and keep everybody loose and healthy for this weekend,” Iola coach Rick Vink said. Over nine innings played in the doubleheader, the Indian pitching staff did not allow a hit or walk. “We wanted to get some work in,” Vink said. “We have the Showcase Tournament this weekend where we will play some really good teams from Missouri, Arkansas and Nebraska so we wanted to get our pitchers some work that would’ve pitched on Sunday. “(Yates Center) is going to be in our Zone Tournament, so we wanted to see what they had. We will go to their house in July.” Daylon Splane pitched the first game and led the Indians to a 12-0 win in four innings. Splane finished with 58 pitches and struck out seven in his perfect game. The Humboldt graduate also was the top hitter for Iola by going 2-for2 with a pair of RBIs and a walk. Derek Bycroft was 1-for-2 and led the team with three runs driven
in. The most interesting stat line came from first baseman Lance Daniels who was 0-for-0, but had three walks with two runs scored as his patience is at an all-time high while he is riding a hot-streak at the plate. “It took us a little while to get going in the first game, but we hit the ball really well and it was nice to see us bounce back after playing pretty bad against Ottawa,” Vink said.
GAME TWO After Splane’s tremendous performance, Ben Cooper picked right up where he left off in the second game. Cooper threw three perfect innings with two strikeouts on 28 pitches. Iola had three runs in the first inning and five runs in the second inning to grab the lead early. That allowed the Indians to play with the lineup some and center fielder Isaac Vink played shortstop while left fielder Kane Rogers played second base and reserve outfielder Nate Berry manned first base. Catcher Casen Barker played center field and
first baseman Lance Daniels was in left field. Bycroft pitched the final two innings and after hitting his first batter with a pitch, finished the game’s final outs by recording a double-play and striking out three batters. The Indians cruised to a 8-0 victory. The outing was Bycroft’s second of the American Legion season — after throwing one inning on Friday against Neosho County. He still has not given up a walk or hit for the Indians. Vink is bringing Bycroft along slowly after he had a heavy workload during his sophomore season with the Mustangs. Bycroft battled an arm injury late in the high school season. “We want to keep our guys as sharp as we can,” Vink said. “We need to keep everyone fresh.” UP NEXT The Indians will go to a tournament in Kansas City this weekend. “It will be a good test to see where we are,” Vink said. “It gives the boys a chance to play in front of about 20 college coaches who will be there so that will be good them.”

Dysplasia can run in families Dear Dr. Roach: One of my sisters died unexpectedly in late January of pneumonia. She did not know she had it. She showed no symptoms prior to her death. She went to work the day before and complained a little to co-workers of minor chest pain. She stayed home the following day, and her husband found that she had died when he returned from an errand. The autopsy showed “death from pneumonia contributed by right ventricle dysplasia.” She had no idea she had this. She was 56. What are the chances that the rest of her siblings have this? I am 67. I went to the cardiologist, and he did an EKG, which was OK. He could not do an echo, because I had no symptoms and my insurance wouldn’t pay for it. I have five more siblings; the youngest is 52. Should we be worried about this? — J.P.
Dr. Keith Roach To Your Good Health Answer: Right ventricle dysplasia, also called arrythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, is a condition of a specific type of abnormality in the right ventricle, which is associated with rhythm disturbances of the heart. It is not often diagnosed, but may be much more prevalent than thought. In Northern Italy, where much of the work on this condition has been done, it has been found to be a frequent cause of sudden cardiac death, especially in athletes. It usually is diagnosed at about age 30, but certainly can be diagnosed in the 50s. The fact that you have had no symptoms at age 67 lessens the likelihood that you have the condition.

However, the condition does run in families, and when it does, about a third of family members are found to have it. Being a sibling and being female increase the likelihood of having the condition. The EKG can be abnormal, but half of people with proven ARVC have a normal EKG at the time they first see the doctor (although it often becomes abnormal over time). The recommendation for evaluating someone with suspected ARVC (including those with a strong family history) is clear: An echocardiogram should be performed. This usually makes the diagnosis, but some people may need additional testing, such as an MRI of the heart. Given your family history, I would recommend that you and all of your siblings be evaluated, and I would ask your cardiologist to appeal the decision by the insurance company.

Dear Carolyn: A relative I don’t particularly like has a pattern: He gets a girlfriend pregnant, announces how thrilled he is to be a father, then breaks up with the girlfriend before the baby is a year old and has little or no contact with the ex or child going forward. He has done this twice, and now a third girlfriend is pregnant. Members of my family are doing things like baby showers, and I’m not sure I want to participate. I find it a little nauseating to hear him go on and on about what a wonderful blessing God gave him with this child, when I know he has not seen either of his other children in at least a couple of years, plus I believe he has weaseled out of paying child support as well. I mentioned to another relative that I might not attend the shower because of these reservations, and the relative said I was be-

Carolyn Hax ing judgmental. Do you agree? Do you think I should suck it up, attend the shower and treat it as a happy occasion? — Another Baby Coming Answer: Conscientious objectors are technically judgmental about war, no? But it’s accepted that Quakers, say, protest war out of a deep sense of duty. So, yes, you can be a conscientious objector to the baby showers celebrating an established deadbeat dad. I do feel for these poor kids, though. Maybe you can get your family to channel their enthusiasm into 529s or other futureminded investment vehicles that go directly to
the kids? And certainly the next time this idiot waxes fauxfaithfully about the blessing of this child, you can ask him if that same God is looking after the other kids he himself has abandoned? And you can mention to baby-vessel-No.-4-to-be, when he inevitably brings her around, that three past baby mamas would love to meet her for coffee? Perhaps at the diner across from family court.

Continued from B1
for the Indians, who were missing several players. Kole Rogers and Eli Smith also were fillins. “They are young kids,” Dillow said. “It tells you a lot about these 14 year-old kids that they can come up and work with these 15- and 16-year-olds. It is nice, because they will be playing with them next year. For them to do that, I’m proud of them. I’m proud of them all.” The transition is minimal for the players as they have been playing together of different teams for extended periods. “They are great ballplayers,” Iola third baseman Hunter Baughn said. “I’ve known them all my life.” A pair of Garnett mistakes allowed Xavier Bauer to reach base — after Badders’ hit — on an error and with one out, Smith was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Baughn unloaded them with a drive to left field that plated a pair of runs. Teryn Johnson followed suit with a double of his own to left that cut Iola’s deficit to 10-6. Rogers kept the line moving by ducking a tag attempt at first base and reaching safely. A double by Kyle O’Neal scored both Johnson and Rogers to bring the team to within 10-8. The score remained there going into the fifth and final inning. The Indians struggled with their control early and walked the bases loaded with nobody out. That prompted Dillow to go to his bullpen and insert Rogers. Rogers rewarded his coach by striking out the first two batters he faced to keep the bases full with two gone. Rogers struck out the next batter, too, but a dropped third strike allowed a runner to score and the bases remained loaded. Rogers stayed confident, though, and struck
Iola pitcher Teryn Johnson throws a pitch against Garnett on Monday’s game one at Riverside Park. REGISTER/JON DYKSTRA out the next batter for a rare four-strikeout inning. The Indians went to the bottom of the fifth trailing 11-8. “It is tough for any pitcher to come in with the bases loaded,” Dillow said. “You are putting a lot of pressure on them to throw strikes but we knew that Kole can handle it. For him to come in and do that, he is a gamer. He is just a gamer.” The offense kept its momentum on offense. Drake Sellman led off with a single and Badders followed with a triple. Bauer drew a walk before a Logan Dillow single with two strikes scored Badders. Bauer scored on a wild pitch to tie the game and Dillow advanced to third, still with no outs. After Garnett induced a pop-out, tensions began to rise as it appeared
that Garnett could possibly escape and force extra innings. Baughn quickly ended those fears as he hit a walk-off single to score Baughn and give Iola the sweep. “Hunter is a great hitter but he is hard on himself,” Coach Dillow said. “For him to get that big hit will do wonders for him. He needed that, he really did.” Baughn was already feeling that confidence take hold after the game. “It felt great,” Baughn said. “It felt good for me and good for my team. I feel like we are going to go on a good winning streak now.” The Indians started the year slowly, but Baughn likes how his team is looking now. “I think this team is perfect,” Baughn said. “Everyone of these players has great talent. I think we a going to be really good.”
Celtics trade top draft pick Philadelphia and Boston have agreed in principle on a trade where the 76ers would acquire the chance to take Markelle Fultz with the No. 1 pick in Thursday’s NBA Draft, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press. The Celtics will get the No. 3 pick, plus an additional first-rounder in either 2018 or 2019, according to the person who spoke on condition of anonymity because the trade has not been formally approved by the league. The agreement between the Celtics and 76ers was struck not long after Fultz worked out for Philadelphia on Saturday evening.
GAME ONE Game one lacked the drama of the second. Teryn Johnson was staked to a big early lead with Iola plating 13 runs in the first two innings and cruising to a 14-7 victory. Johnson pitched sixplus innings to earn the victory. UP NEXT The Single-A Indians will hit the road Wednesday when they travel to Mound City for a doubleheader starting at 6 p.m.
