Murder conviction reversed; new trial ordered

By Scott Rothschild Twitter: @ljwrothschild

Martin Miller, who was convicted of murder in the 2004 slaying of his wife, Mary Miller, will get a new trial.

The Kansas Supreme Court on Friday overturned

his conviction based on an incorrect written jury instruction.

“Our office will review the decision and prepare to try Miller again for the death of his wife. Our hearts are heavy for the Miller children who will be called upon to testify again,” said

Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson.

Branson added, “Prior appellate courts found the evidence against Martin Miller was overwhelming.”

No date has been scheduled for the new trial.

Miller was convicted of first-degree murder for the

July 28, 2004, death of Mary Miller, 46, at the family’s central Lawrence home.

Prosecutors accused Miller of strangling his wife in her sleep because he had been having an affair with another woman and wanted to collect $300,000 in life insurance.

But in a unanimous decision Friday, the Kansas Supreme Court said the written jury instruction given

by Douglas County District Court Judge Paula Martin in the trial was in error.

ACTRESS BARBARA EDEN, who played Jeannie on the 1960s television series “I Dream of Jeannie,” can’t deny her love for Kansas basketball. Eden will be in attendance at Allen Fieldhouse for Saturday’s game between the Jayhawks and the Horned Frogs of TCU with her husband, Jon Eicholtz, who is a Kansas University graduate.

In town for game, ‘Jeannie’ actress says she’s a fan of KU magic

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Film, stage and TV actress and singer Barbara Eden recently accepted an invitation from Kansas University Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little to come to Mount Oread and speak to students in KU’s theater department.

It’s no coincidence the dates of her visit coincided with a Jayhawk basketball game.

Eden and her husband, KU graduate Jon Eicholtz, happen to be huge KU hoops fans and will be in Allen Fieldhouse for today’s 3 p.m. contest against TCU.

Topeka — Republican legislative leaders on Friday sought to distance themselves from a House-approved bill that would have allowed people to cite religious beliefs in denying services to same-sex couples.

House Bill 2453 was approved 72-49 on Wednesday, prompting strong reaction around the country.

But on Thursday, Senate President Susan Wagle, RWichita, essentially killed the measure, saying the Wagle bill was much broader than supporters had claimed and it would have harmed businesses.

AT&T and other companies announced their opposition to the bill.

“This legislation is impossible to implement,” said AT&T Kansas President Steve Hahn. “The bill Merrick promotes discriminatory behavior by businesses against their customers; and it interferes with AT&T’s management of our employees,” he said.

In Lawrence, David Greenbaum, the owner of DoctorDave Computer Repair, on Friday decided to shut down for one day in protest of the bill.

“Denying customers service is bad for business and bad for the Kansas economy.

Ex-KBI official’s attorney says that no child was in danger

By Heather Hollingsworth Associated Press

Kansas City, Mo. — The attorney for a former Kansas Bureau of Investigation official charged with sexual exploitation of a child and trying to destroy evidence said Friday that “no child was ever in danger.”

Attorney Thomas Haney said the claims are “serious” but stressed that former KBI deputy director Kyle G. Smith isn’t accused of approaching, touching or

Our Legislature should be encouraging companies to do business in and with Kansans,” Greenbaum said.

He said denying service would also show customers what it feels like to be turned away.

A coalition of large and small businesses, including Kansas City Power & Light and the Wichita Independent Business Association, also voiced opposition.

“This bill is discriminatory and also unworkable,” said Chuck Caisley, vice president of marketing and public affairs for KCP&L. House Speaker Ray Merrick, R-Stilwell, said he voted for the measure believing it was a narrow protection of religious freedoms in the face of federal court decisions in states around the country striking down same-sex marriage bans similar to the one in the Kansas Constitution.

“The allegation is that he looked at an image that was publicly available on his computer through a website that anybody would have access to,” Haney said, though he added that he hadn’t received any of the investigative reports from prosecutors yet.

Smith, 57, of Topeka, was charged Thursday in Shawnee County District Court with one count of sexual exploitation of a child for alBut Merrick said since the vote he has seen the bill can be interpreted in many ways.

He, Wagle and other GOP leaders said the Legislature would continue working on a measure to protect religious freedoms but not in a way that discriminated against gays and lesbians.

Supporters of HB 2453 said it would protect from lawsuits and government action individuals who refuse to provide services to same-sex couples because they believe homosexuality is morally wrong.

They said these peoples’ religious rights are being trampled by recent court decisions striking down other states’ bans on samesex marriages.

But gay-rights advocates said the bill would have allowed widespread discrimination against gays and lesbians that would be equivalent to the days when blacks or inter-racial couples were denied equal treatment.

They said that under the bill same-sex couples could be denied being served in restaurants or that police could decide not to assist a same-sex married couple in distress.

The bill said that a gov-

Smith was released Thursday after posting a $15,000 surety bond. ernmental entity could not require an individual or religious entity to treat a marriage as valid if doing so would be contrary to sincerely held religious beliefs of the individual or religious entity.

Wagle said one of her concerns was that the bill would have allowed a police officer or firefighter to refuse assistance.

That needs to change in any potential legislation, she said. “Public service needs to remain public service for the entire public,” she said.

Wagle also said small businesses would have been harmed because an employee could refuse to serve someone and the owner would be forced to find someone else to do the job.

She used the example of a baker she has used for weddings of her daughters.

“If this bill were to become law and she chose not to serve a same-sex couple, this law would require her to find someone else to provide that service. She has no other employees,” Wagle said. l Virgina ruling

Court written instruction about reasonable doubt substituted the words “each” for “any” and found that substantially changed the meaning to Miller’s detriment.

“The written instruction given at Miller’s trial was erroneous because it told the jury to acquit Miller only if it had a reasonable doubt as to every element of Miller’s first-degree murder charge, rather than

a reasonable doubt as to a single element. And in doing so, it did not correctly describe the standard that the jury was required to apply in finding Miller guilty or not guilty,” wrote Justice Dan Biles.

Miller had been a carpenter and Christian school leader in Lawrence.

Attempts to reach his parents for comment were unsuccessful.

In 2007, the Kansas Supreme Court had upheld the earlier direct appeal of Miller’s guilty verdict.

In 2012, a Kansas Court of Appeals panel said Miller should get a new trial be-

Eden, who attended City College of San Francisco for two years, has been active in acting since 1955.

She has worked as leading lady in films alongside actors Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman and Elvis Presley. She laughed when asked if she’s worked with more Hollywood heart-throbs than any woman in the history of

“I doubt that. I think Sophia Loren has many, many more,” Eden said, laughing.

As far as tackling the question of who is the best sitcom character in history, Eden didn’t boastfully choose “Jeannie.”

Eden is generally regarded as an American sweetheart. One person said in a documentary of Eden: “Everybody loves Barbara Eden.”

Theatre Lawrence to offer free CPR training

Woman claims stabbing provoked

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Theatre Lawrence now has two automated external defibrillators installed and, on Saturday, will be the site of a free class to teach people to use them.

L a w HEALTH rence resident Teri Leet shepherded the AED installation and organized the community class after her 20-year-old son Jake Leet suffered a heart attack on stage during Theatre Lawrence’s production of “Shrek” in December. A doctor and other audience members sprang into action to perform CPR on the young actor, who had a previously undiagnosed heart defect, saving his life.

Especially with no AED available at the time, Jake was very lucky, his mother said. She wants to help improve the chances of survival for anyone — actor, audience member or people in another public place — who might go into cardiac arrest in the future.

“What happened with Jacob is miraculous,” she said.

“I feel that our community is close enough to educate a great proportion of our residents to be able to perform that same initiative.”

Man charged with attempted murder

A 34-year-old Lawrence man has been charged with attempted first-degree murder after a shooting early Friday morning left a man in critical condition.

Officers found the victim, who was shot multiple times, inside his vehicle in the north parking lot of the park, near the intersection of Harvard Road and Monterey Way. Medical personnel reported the victim’s injuries to be critical and requested an air ambulance, which took the victim to a Topeka-area trauma center, McKinley said.

The victim was able to give police the name and vehicle description of the man who shot him.

“The suspect and victim were known to one another and were involved in a verbal altercation before the shooting occurred,” McKinley said.

Officers arrested Turner after

a car stop near 23rd and Harper streets.

The shooting victim remains hospitalized and police are not releasing his name, McKinley said.

Turner has two prior convictions in Douglas County: in 2000 for narcotics possession and in 2006 for narcotics sales.

He was paroled in 2009 and his most recent sentence ended in February 2012, according to the Kansas Department of Corrections. Turner will appear in Douglas County District Court on Wednesday.

SATURDAY COLUMN

November elections key to setting nation’s course

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the upcoming midterm elections for the U.S. House and Senate, along with a number of governors’ races, are going to be far more important than most elections.

President Obama has made it clear he intends to use every possible means to bring about the “fundamental changes” in this country he pledged to make if elected to the presidency.

He has said he will try to work with members of Congress to hammer out his legislative agenda, but if he can’t get the action he wants, he will use his executive powers to make the changes he wants — changes and policies that fit into his grand plan for this country.

Past presidents have used executive powers, but not to reverse laws, violate Senate or House rules and perhaps violate the Constitution.

Regardless of the makeup of the next Congress, Obama could, and probably will, use his executive powers to try to do an end run around Congress and impose his will on the public. This is what he has been doing with the Democraticcontrolled Senate and a Republican-controlled House.

Obama’s critics can complain about the president’s actions, his false or phony pledges, his double-talk and deliberate misleading of the public relative to his signature legislation, the Obama health care plan.

But, so far, these critics have been unable to do much of anything other than talk about the situation. Little effective action has been taken to stop the president from imposing his dreams and changes on the American public, regardless of what those in Congress wish or what the Constitution may say.

It’s a dangerous situation and could set a precedent for future presidents if the public

and Congress or the Supreme Court cannot, or will not, say the president has exceeded the powers of his office — or the laws of the land.

COMMENTARY It is interesting to watch numerous Democratic Senate and House hopefuls and gubernatorial candidates try to distance themselves from the president and Obamacare. Also, it is interesting to note how, by executive action, Obama has pushed back various original deadlines and penalties in his health care law to dates that would come after this November’s elections or even after the 2016 presidential election.

Democratic candidates, many of whom were hard-core supporters of Obama in the 2008 and 2012 elections, now are trying to use various smokescreens to distance themselves from the

music.movies.art.food.nightlife.

president. The truth is, as has been shown in past elections, a candidate seeking office often has no hesitance in making voter-friendly pledges only to ignore these pledges once he is voted into office. Obama himself offers a good example.

Democrats seeking congressional seats or governorships now can claim they are not locked into and supportive of Obama’s plans, but until polls showed the president losing public approval, they were eager to use Obama’s coattails to try to get elected.

They want access to his campaign war chest and strategy, but they will try to convince the public they are not an automatic “yes” vote for anything Obama may wish. They want and need Obama’s vast campaign and demographic information, which is the most in-depth source of voter information from previous state and national political efforts and current measurements of the

public’s likes and dislikes.

If Democrats are able to hold onto the Senate and strengthen their position in the House — or possibly beat the odds and win control of the House — there will be no stopping the “fundamental changes” Obama is committed to carrying out.

This is why the upcoming November elections are so important — to those who want to continue the fundamental change and the drift to socialism and a “nanny state,” as well as to those who oppose greater government control of the lives of all Americans, the loss of freedoms and a weaker, less prestigious nation.

All elections are important, but there are growing reasons that the upcoming November congressional and gubernatorial elections may be among the most important ever to the future direction of this country.

Both sides, and the country, have an enormous stake in the election outcome.

Lane l Siyin Li l Nila Mandal l Carl X.

Each year, about 1.5 million students in the United States take the exam. Of those, only about 15,000, or 1 percent, are named as finalists.

Beginning in March and continuing to mid-June, NMSC notifies approximately 8,000 Finalists that they have been selected to receive a Merit Scholar-

ship award. Those awards are based on a variety of factors, including the student’s academic record, the school’s curricula and grading system, two sets of test scores, a school official’s written recommendation, information about the student’s activities and leadership and the student’s own essay.

that he had a blood-alcohol level of 0.341 — and that the two called each other names before the dispute became physical. Cully told them that she stabbed Francisco after he threw a chair at her and attempted to swing it at her again.

Lawrence police officer Dean Kemppainen testified that he was first on the scene at Francisco’s apartment at 4300 West 24th Place and was invited inside by Cully, whom he said was applying pressure on Francisco’s wounds with a towel. “He was not moving and he was actually changing color at that point,”

Kemppainen said.

Cully appeared in Douglas County District Court on Friday for a preliminary hearing. She has been in jail since her Christmas morning arrest. In court, Cully was quiet, often sniffling or wiping away tears. Friends and family filled the courtroom.

Cully recorded the cellphone video as she lay on a couch in Francisco’s apartment in the moments before the stabbing.

In the video, Francisco is speaking unintelligibly at first while making signs with his hands. Their conversation becomes hostile, each calling each other names, and Cully yells at Francisco to go to bed and sober up. Several minutes pass before Francisco insults Cully’s family, gets up

watching the video on Friday, Cully began to sob.

According to Erik Mitchell, Douglas County coroner, Francisco died from internal bleeding resulting from a stab wound near his collarbone. Mitchell testified that the first thrust of the knife passed through Francisco’s lung and stopped just before his heart.

The eight-inch blade was plunged down to the handle, he said.

Cully told investigators that she had not been drinking and had taken an over-the-counter sleeping medication.

Cully is still in custody and will return to court for arraignment on March 28.

and walks over to Cully. The video blurs with motion after a crash. A wooden chair briefly comes into view as Cully walks into a d a r k kitchen.

There, the rattling of silverCOURTS ware is audible before Francisco reappears, stepping back as the video ends.

Lawrence detective Mike McAtee testified that Cully told him Francisco threw a chair at her before she grabbed a knife. She said she first stabbed Francisco near his collarbone, McAtee said, when he went to pick the chair up again.

She said he then picked up the chair, drawing it back as if to swing, before she stabbed him a second time. While

The class is not a CPR certification course, but it will teach lifesaving hands-only CPR and go over use of an AED, said teacher Joe Stellwagon, a Lawrence resident, Johnson County MedAct paramedic and CPR instructor.

The hands-only method, developed by the American Heart Association an the American Red Cross, is effective and approachable for the general public, Stellwagon said.

“It’s simple to remember, and it doesn’t involve the ventilations, which are usually the trickier of the skills,” he said. “More people are willing to do it because they don’t have to do mouth-tomouth.”

“In the rare event that something does happen, the survival rate increases if the use of an AED can be applied in the first few minutes,” he said.

Teri Leet’s CPR education and AED installation effort, called Heartbeats for the Heartland, expects to set dates for additional CPR training sessions soon. Theatre Lawrence’s AEDs were donated, and Saturday’s session is funded by donations received at a party for Jake, who his mother said is acting again and back to “100 percent.”

Behind those big green eyes is a couch potato with legs. Tommy is almost 9 years old and weighs about 18 lbs. He is a Domestic Short Hair with grey cream tiger markings.

He really isn’t a lap cat, but enjoys the attention he gets from the staff and volunteers. He is pretty passive when it comes to interacting with the other cats, so a multi-cat home would be fine for him.

House advances 2 bills sought by universities 3 people arrested on J-W Staff Reports

Topeka — The Kansas House on Friday advanced two bills aimed at making it easier for regents universities, including Kansas University, to offer online courses in other states and reduce property insurance costs.

Under House Bill 2544, Kansas would join a re-

gional group of states that would establish standards for online LEGISLATURE courses and automatically authorize the member states to deliver distance education courses in each state.

Currently, each school must pursue needed ap-

provals in each state where it enrolls students.

That is a cumbersome and expensive process, higher education officials said.

House Bill 2470 would allow the universities to purchase property insurance from companies that haven’t been admitted to do business in the state.

Purchasing from “nonadmitted” carriers would

increase the number of potential insurers and lower costs, the bill’s supporters said. Higher education officials said they believed safeguards were in place for the schools to avoid purchasing risky policies.

Both bills were advanced on a nonrecord voice vote and will be up for final House approval next week.

Virtually saying goodbye

suspicion of battery, gun possession

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

Lawrence police arrested three people in East Lawrence late Wednesday on suspicion of multiple crimes including aggravated assault, drug and gun possession and battering an officer.

Christopher Coty Maier, 26, of Lawrence; Kenny A. McGee, 41, of Lawrence; and Chrystal M. White, 40, of Lawrence, were arrested in the 1900 block of East 19th Street and are still in jail.

According to Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, police arrested Maier after he attempted to flee and battered an officer. He was booked into Douglas County Jail Wednesday on suspicion of battery of a law enforcement officer and obstruction.

Maier is also being held on a Kansas Department of Corrections warrant for violating parole earlier this month. Maier was paroled in July after almost seven months in prison on a 2012 robbery conspiracy conviction in Douglas County.

McGee is in jail on a $75,000 bond and appeared in court on Friday.

He is scheduled to return to court next week.

On Friday, the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office charged McGee with aggravated assault. He is accused of threatening a man with a shotgun on Feb. 8. He is also charged with criminal carrying of a weapon, a violation alleged to have occurred on Feb. 9, and felony obstruction after allegedly resisting arrest on Wednesday.

White was arrested on suspicion of aggravated battery.

The reading was organized in honor of Lombardo’s career and to mark his retirement.

Carson was scheduled to read in person but attended via Skype because of a canceled flight.

Entities unite to oppose lobbying bill

By Scott Rothschild Twitter: @ljwrothschild

Topeka — Cities, counties and school districts on Thursday united in opposition to a bill that would require governmental entities to file annual reports with the state that show how much in tax dollars they spent on lobbying.

The only one who tes-

tified in support of Senate Bill 343 was Jeff Glendening, state director of Americans for Prosperity, a group that advocates for low taxes and limited government.

“It’s important for citizens to know where their taxpayer dollars are going,” Glendening said.

Representatives of local governments said records showing the use of taxpayer funds are al-

ready publicly available and that the proposed bill would add more bureaucracy and could limit input from local governments to the Legislature.

The bill would also require that governments report the amount of money spent on lobbying by associations that they are members of. City officials said that would be difficult to calculate.

A gas leak caused Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical officials to block off traffic from Ousdahl to Iowa streets along 23rd Street on Friday night.

The leak was reported just before 7 p.m., said Capt. Joe Schaumburg.

Black Hills Energy shut off the gas around 8:30. Schaumburg said a line in front of Yokohama Sushi, 1730 W. 23rd St., may be the source of the gas leak.

A crew from Black Hills Energy performed an assessment on the leak.

Traffic remained blocked late into the evening.

KC corps officials urge caution on ice Kansas City, Mo. — Officials are urging people to be cautious around ice-covered Midwestern lakes as temperatures rise this week.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said in a news release Thursday that there is no such thing as 100 percent safe ice. The corps’ Kansas City district urged people to watch for deteriorating conditions at its 18 lakes throughout Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska.

The corps says it’s impossible to judge the strength of ice by its appearance, thickness or

temperature. Strength also is based on the depth of water under the ice, size of the water body, water chemistry and currents.

The corps also noted that ice seldom freezes uniformly. That means it may be a foot thick in one location but only an inch or two thick just a few feet away.

City commissioners will consider approving a site plan to allow the local construction firm Struct/ Restruct Design Studio to locate its offices at 1146 Haskell Ave.

BACKGROUND The Brook Creek Neighborhood Association has sent a letter to city commissioners seeking changes to the proposed site plan to better protect the neighborhood from noise produced by the business.

Neighbors have expressed concern that the business may operate a saw mill or other large outdoor equipment on the site. The site for years was a salvage yard, and most recently, was home to the 12th and Haskell Recycling Center.

Judge sets trial in restraints case Wichita — A federal judge has scheduled a trial for a man who claims the juvenile detention center in Sedgwick County violated his rights by using a restraining chair as punishment.

U.S. District Judge Monti Belot set the Oct. 14 date in the wake of last year’s appeals court ruling that Brandon Blackmon is entitled to a trial.

Blackmon sued as an adult in 2005 over treatment he received at the facility as an 11 year old while awaiting trial on criminal charges that were later dismissed.

The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said jailers had made “liberal use” of the restraining chair, in which a person is immobilized with straps.

In his “Hunter’s Poem,” Lemuel T. Ward described his final hunt.

He shot two geese who fell to the ground near him. He watched as the male bird called to his mate. “And she dragged herself to his side,” he wrote, “...Then covering him with her broken wing, and gasping with failing breath; she laid her head against his breast; a feeble honk, then death….” With tears streaming down his face, Ward buried the birds and threw his gun in the bay, never to hunt again.

The Buddha said, “All beings tremble before violence. All fear death.

All love life. See yourself in others. Then whom can you hurt?” Ward saw himself in those dying geese, and he could never again do such harm.

After decades of hunting and fishing, Steve Hindi had a spiritual awakening of compassion. He buried the fish, birds, and mammals he had killed and hung on his walls and became a vegan activist. Regarding the vi-

olence that fish experience, he said, “…I know they suffer tremendously, just as we would Carman if subjected to such horrendous treatment.”

Deep in our souls we feel a kinship with all creation. Nearly every religion, at its core, teaches nonviolence and love for all life. Norm Phelps concludes in “The Dominion of Love: Animal Rights According to the Bible” that “We have no moral right to make choices that destroy the happiness and steal the lives of helpless beings who are absolutely at our mercy.”

The Jain religion promotes living a life of harmlessness to all living beings. St. Francis of Assisi said we must not hurt animals and that we actually have “a higher mission: to be of service to them…” May we all awaken to our highest calling and finally bring peace to earth for all beings.

Federal President Barack Obama White House, Washington, D.C. 20500; (202) 456-1111 Online comments: www.whitehouse.gov/contact/ U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran (R) Russell Senate Office Building, Courtyard 4 Washington, D.C. 20510; (202) 224-6521; Website: www.moran.senate.gov U.S. Sen.

ACA impact on jobs becoming clear Washington — In the ongoing saga of the Affordable Care Act, oddly referred to by Democrats as the law of the land even as it is amended at will by presidential fiat, we are beginning to understand the extent of its war on jobs.

First, the Congressional Budget Office triples its estimate of the drop in the workforce resulting from the disincentive introduced by Obamacare’s insurance subsidies: 2 million by 2017, 2.3 million by 2021.

“

The honest liberal reply to the CBO report is that a disincentive to work is inherent in any means-tested government benefit.”

points gamely defend this as a good thing because these jobs are being given up voluntarily. Nancy Pelosi spoke lyrically about how Obamacare subsidies will allow people to leave unfulfilling jobs to pursue their passions: “Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.”

Nothing so lyrical has been written about work since Marx (in “The German Ideology”) described a communist society that “makes it possible for me to ... hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner.”

Pelosi’s vision is equally idyllic except for one thing: The taxes of the American factory worker — grinding away dutifully at his repetitive mind-numbing job — will be subsidizing the voluntary unemployment of the artiste in search of his muse. A rather paradoxical position for the party that poses as tribune of the working man.

In the reductio ad absurdum of entitlement liberalism, Jay Carney was similarly enthusiastic about this Obamacareinduced job loss. Why, Obamacare creates the “opportunity” that “allows families in America to make a decision about

how they will work, and if they will work.”

If they will work? PreObama, people always had the right to quit work to tend full time to the study of butterflies. It’s a free country. The twist in the new liberal dispensation is that the butterfly guy is to be subsidized by the taxes of people who actually work.

In the traditional opportunity society, government provides the tools — education, training and various incentives — to achieve the dignity of work and its promise of self-improvement and social mobility. In the new opportunity society, you are given the opportunity for idleness while living parasitically off everyone else. Why those everyone elses should remain at their jobs — hey!

I wanna dance, too! — is a puzzle Carney has yet to explain.

The honest liberal reply to the CBO report

is that a disincentive to work is inherent in any means-tested government benefit. It’s the unavoidable price of helping those in need, because for every new dollar you earn, you lose part of your subsidy and thus keep less and less of your nominal income.

That’s inevitable.

And that’s why we have learned to tie welfare, for example, to a work requirement.

Otherwise, beneficiaries could choose to live off the dole forever. That’s why the 1996 Gingrich-Clinton welfare reform succeeded in reducing welfare rolls by two-thirds.

It is not surprising that the same Obama administration that has been weakening the work requirement for welfare is welcoming the disincentive to work inherent in Obamacare.

But Obamacare’s war on jobs goes beyond voluntary idleness. The administration is now

conceding, inadvertently but unmistakably, Obamacare’s other effect — involuntary job loss. On Monday, the administration unilaterally postponed and weakened the employer mandate, already suspended through 2015, for yet another year.

But doesn’t this undermine the whole idea of universal health coverage? Of course it does, but Obamacare was so structured that it is crushing small business and killing jobs. It creates a major incentive for small businesses to cut back to under 50 employees to avoid the mandate. Your business becomes a 49er by either firing workers or reducing their hours to below 30 a week. Because that doesn’t count as full time, you escape both the employer mandate to buy health insurance and the fine for not doing so.

With the weakest recovery since World War II, historically high chronic unemployment and a shockingly low workforce participation rate, the administration correctly fears the economic consequences of its own law — and of the political fallout for Democrats as millions more Americans lose their jobs or are involuntarily reduced to part-time status.

Conservatives have been warning about this for five years. This is not rocket science. Both the voluntary and forced job losses were utterly predictable. Pelosi insisted we would have to pass the law to know what’s in it.

Now we know.

PUBLIC FORUM

Disheartening bill To the editor: I am taking off all my roles, titles and distinctions. I want to personally talk to you about “The Religious Freedoms Bill.” This legislation makes me feel sad and disheartened.

I believe that I work incredibly hard at growing, expanding and creating opportunities for all people in so many different endeavors in Lawrence and the state of Kansas. And because I choose to love (not hate) someone, my government not only wants to make me a second-class citizen, BUT make it OK to deny opportunities to me.

Unless you ever faced that kind of blatant hatred, I am not sure you’d understand the emotional impact that has on someone. I have a pretty thick skin, and I know that I am unconditionally loved, so I will be OK. I will go on fighting (even harder) for the rights of others and myself — because I don’t want other people to ever feel the way I am feeling right now. I still firmly believe that understanding and acceptance will ALWAYS be triumphant over fear and ignorance.

I hope you will join me in letting our elected Kansas officials know that I, or any Kansan, shouldn’t be a second-class citizen and opportunities be denied.

Scott Criqui, Lawrence

State commitments To the editor: The 2013 base state aid per pupil was 64 percent of what it was

in 1992, adjusted for inflation. The governor’s proposal for 2015 would raise it by $14. Inflation in 2013 was 1.47 percent, requiring an increase of $56.

As schools are being starved for funds, the Legislature enacted tax law changes in 2012 and 2013 which reduce state revenue by $1,589 million over the next two years, with a projected deficit of $312 million. Included in these tax changes were provisions I doubt most voting Kansans are aware of.

Sole proprietors, partners and others now pay no tax on their earnings, while their employees pay on their wages. The justification is that these businesses create jobs. As a CPA, I never had a client tell me he was not going to hire an employee because he would have to pay income tax on the resulting profit. I often had clients tell me they were unable to find employees with the necessary education.

So what outcomes can we expect from this underfunding of our schools? We will have higher property taxes, fewer teachers, larger classes, fewer academic choices and deteriorating facilities.

As a Republican, I thought I belonged to the party of fiscal responsibility. Fiscal responsibility, however, includes meeting your obligations.

When cutting taxes becomes the holy grail at the cost of providing basic governmental services, Republicanism has lost its way. I would urge voters to contact their legislators and encourage them to repeal these laws and meet their commitments.

Vincent T. Miller, Lawrence

UN finds inhumane crimes in NKorea

Airlines scrap record number of flights

Washington— A U.N. panel has found that crimes against humanity have been committed in North Korea and will call for an international criminal investigation, The Associated Press has learned.

The report, to be released Monday, is the most authoritative account yet of rights violations by North Korean authorities, and it is bound to infuriate the country’s unpredictable leader.

The commission, which conducted a yearlong investigation, has found evidence of an array of crimes, including “extermination,” crimes against humanity against starving populations and a widespread campaign of abductions of individuals in South Korea and Japan.

New York— The relentless snow and ice storms this winter have led to the highest number of flight cancellations in more than 25 years, according to an analysis by The Associated Press.

U.S. airlines have canceled more than 75,000 domestic flights since Dec. 1, including more than 14,000 this week.

That’s 5.5 percent of the 1.37 million flights scheduled during that period, according to calculations based on information provided by flight tracking site FlightAware.

It’s the highest total number and highest percent of cancellations since at least the winter of 1987-1988, when the Department of Transportation first started collecting cancellation data.

Washington— The overturning of Virginia’s gay marriage ban places the legal fight over same-sex unions increasingly in the hands of federal appeals courts shaped

by President Barack Obama’s two election victories.

It’s no accident that Virginia has become a key testing ground for federal judges’ willingness to embrace samesex marriage after last year’s strongly worded pro-gay rights ruling by the Supreme Court. Judges appointed by Democratic presidents have a 10-5 edge over Republicans on the Richmond-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, formerly among the nation’s most conservative appeals courts.

U.S. District Judge Arenda Wright Allen’s ruling Thursday, that same-sex couples in Virginia have the same constitutional right to marry as heterosexuals, represented the strongest advance in the South for advocates of gay marriage.

Embiid-less KU to face 0-for-Big 12 TCU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Movie, hate bill timing divine I wholeheartedly disagree with atheists. There simply must be a God. What else but divine intervention could explain the accidental, pluperfect timing of the release of “Jayhawkers,” Kevin Willmott’s film centered on the racial climate in Lawrence when Wilt Chamberlain came to town?

In the most powerful scenes in the black-andwhite film, Wilt is refused service at a diner and told he had to sit in the balcony at a movie theater.

The film premiered Friday night in the Lied Center, one day after the House branch of the Kansas Legislature approved bill 2453, which enables citing religious beliefs to deny goods and services to samesex couples.

The House passed the hate bill two days before Valentine’s Day, a holiday manufactured to celebrate love.

I watched a screening of the film, which airs today at Lied Center at 11 a.m., 7 and 9 p.m. and Sunday (1, 4, 7 p.m.). If you’re the type who likes to nitpick historical inaccuracies, have at it, but you’ll miss the point.

The point is that KU Chancellor Franklin Murphy was the right person to occupy a chair of influence when such a popular black figure came to town. Murphy used Wilt’s presence to speed up integration in Lawrence.

Kansas reserve center Justin Wesley does an admirable job of portraying Wilt. I feared that being new to the art, he might over-act.

Not so. I also feared there would be an attempt to recreate games, as too often is the case in Hollywood.

Instead, Willmott borrowed the “Raging Bull” technique of tight shots and liberal use of slow-motion. Nice touch.

All the while, the music of Nathan Davis, Wilt’s college buddy, played, jazzing up the movie. Really nice touch.

I was delighted to meet the real Davis, not the actor who portrayed him, Thursday night at 715, where I dined with my Valentine.

Wilt used to play the bongo drums with Davis.

“He wasn’t a pro, but he was good,” said Davis, retired from 43 years as director of music at University Please see KEEGAN, page 3B

Olathe — Lawrence High’s boys basketball team doesn’t need much to get its offense clicking. On Friday night at Olathe Northwest, all it took was a long rebound and an active defense.

Barbee’s putback was the start of a 9-0 run throughout much of the fourth quarter.

Bullying report cites harassment pattern An investigation into the racially charged Miami Dolphins bullying scandal detailed widespread harassment in the team’s locker room that extended beyond the two players at the center of the probe.

The NFL-ordered report stated there was a “pattern of harassment” committed by at least three players and extended to two lineman and an assistant trainer, all targets of vicious taunts and racist insults.

Lawyer Ted Wells released the report Friday, saying guard John Jerry and center Mike Pouncey followed Richie Incognito’s lead in harassing Jonathan Martin, who left the team in October. They threatened to rape his sister, called him a long list of slurs and bullied him for not being “black enough.”

In a statement emailed by a league spokesman, the NFL did not make any mention of possible punishment stemming from the case. The league only confirmed it had received the report and said it appreciated the Dolphins’ cooperation with the investigation. Wells said he does not intend to comment further.

Martin is biracial, Incognito is white, and Jerry and Pouncey are black.

Martin’s agent Kenneth Zuckerman said his client feels “vindicated” by the report.

“He feels a great sense of relief,” Zuckerman told the Associated Press. “Jonathan Martin is a great man and he’s only shown me that he is very honest since the day I met him. He loves football and is eager to get back on the field, regardless of what team he plays for.”

Tight end Gordon signs with Chiefs Kansas City, Mo. — The Chiefs have signed restricted free agent Richard Gordon to a one-year contract to provide depth at tight end, a position where they struggled through injuries much of last season.

The team had not announced the deal Friday, but NFLPA records indicate Gordon will receive $645,000 in 2014.

Gordon joined the Chiefs in December and appeared in two regular season games, making one catch for three yards against San Diego. That was the game in which the Chiefs, already assured of their playoff position, rested virtually all of their starters.

BASEBALL

Ex-All-Star Fregosi dies at age 71 Atlanta — Jim Fregosi, a former All-Star who won more than 1,000 games as a manager for four teams, has died after an apparent stroke. He was 71.

The Atlanta Braves say they were notified by a family member that died early Friday in Miami, where he was hospitalized after the apparent stroke while on a cruise with baseball alumni.

Fregosi ended more than 50 years in baseball as a special assistant to Braves general manager Frank Wren.

GOLF

Bae up by one at Northern Trust Los Angeles — Bae Sangmoon played bogey-free Friday at the Northern Trust Open on another gorgeous day at Riviera for a 5-under 66, giving him a one-shot lead over Aaron Baddeley and Robert Garrigus going into the weekend.

Baddeley, who hasn’t won since Riviera three years ago, birdied his last four holes for a 65.

Knight rolling as KU women head to ISU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

To say Kansas University junior guard Natalie Knight is on a roll would be putting it mildly.

During the past three weeks, in which she has scored in double figures in six consecutive games and in four straight shot 50 percent or better from three-point range, Knight has carried Kansas to a 3-3 record and kept alive hopes for the postseason.

Although her .382 career three-point mark (99-of-259) would put her second on KU’s alltime list, the junior from Olathe never takes the floor thinking about pad-

believe that. It’s just a matter of time before they bust through,” Self said of TCU (9-14), which is 0-11 in the Big 12. KU is 18-6, 9-2.

One reason Self figures the Frogs are destined for one or more league victories is, “They’re much improved over last year.

Last year they beat us and beat Oklahoma both handily,” Self said.

Indeed, the Horned Frogs went 2-16 in the Big 12 and 11-21 overall a year ago in Trent Johnson’s first year at the Fort Worth, Texas, school.

The Frogs, who fell to KU, 91-69, on Jan. 25 in Fort Worth, have a pair of nonconference victories this season over Tulsa, plus wins over Washington State and Mississippi State.

“If you look at their scores, at Iowa State Ejim goes for 48, and still it’s a nine-point game late.

That’s with a guy getting 48,” Self said.

ISU’s Melvin Ejim scored a Big 12-record 48 points in ISU’s 84-69 victory over the Horned Frogs last Saturday in Ames.

“If you look at their last game, they only lost to Texas by three — a team second in the conference,” power forward Black said of TCU’s 59-54 loss to Texas on Feb. 4 in Fort Worth. TCU has had one home game since then, a 91-58 blowout loss to Baylor on Wednesday.

“You can look at the stats and say they haven’t got a win yet.

We can look at film and say they very well could have won that game,” Black added. “They had opportunities. They definitely can get a win in conference. It just hasn’t happened yet.”

TCU has also lost by five points at home to West Virginia, six at Texas Tech and eight at Oklahoma. TCU in the first meeting against KU was victimized by Andrew Wiggins, who scored 27 points. He was followed in the box score by fellow freshmen Embiid (14), Wayne Selden (12), Landen Lucas (7), Frank Mason (6), Brannen Greene (6) and Conner Frankamp (3). Sophomores Jamari Traylor and Perry Ellis had eight points apiece, while nobody else scored, meaning all of KU’s points were scored by freshmen and sophomores.

“At every position, they have somebody who

ding her stats, only winning.

Still, the Jayhawks (12-13 overall, 5-8 Big 12) know that when Knight shoots well, as she has lately, it dramatically increases t h e i r chances of winning. And they’re banking on her Knight leading the charge at 6 tonight in Ames, Iowa, when they take on Iowa State (167, 5-7) in a crucial Big 12 matchup.

Knight’s role as a col-

lege basketball threepoint marksman came innocently. After starring at Olathe South as one of the best all-around high school players in Kansas, Knight found herself asked to handle a different role during her freshman year at Kansas.

“In the beginning, because when I first got here there was Angel (Goodrich) and Carolyn (Davis), my role was to make shots when I was wide-open,” Knight recalled. “That was kind of my role in the beginning, and I just ran with it.”

As her career has progressed, Knight has been asked to shoulder more of the scoring load little

can score. They attack you, so you really have to be on your toes on every defensive possession,” said TCU junior forward Amric Fields, who scored 13 points in the first meeting. Freshman forward Brandon Parrish led the way with 15 points on a night the Frogs hit 43.1 percent of their shots to KU’s sizzling 57.4 percent mark.

Coach Johnson, who had a 67-62 record in four seasons at LSU (one NCAA appearance) before taking the TCU job in 2012-13, became a firm believer in KU’s nationaltitle aspirations after the Jan. 25 game.

“That’s a team that competes hard every possession. That’s what a guy like me respects.

They are not caught up in their ranking. They are a special group. I’d be very surprised if they remain healthy they are not here

in April,” Johnson said, referring to Arlington, Texas, where the 2014 Final Four will be held.

“Bill’s teams are always focused,” Johnson said. “First possession, last possession, that’s been a well-oiled machine for years. We’re trying to be relevant here (at TCU).”

Johnson likes KU’s talent.

“He’s a special player,” Johnson said of Wiggins. “Joel, Wayne, you can go down the line.

The guy so much better nobody talks about is (Naadir) Tharpe. Running the team, making decisions. In my shallow opinion, they’ve probably got six pros. They play the game right, hard and together.”

As far as his own team, “It has to do with depth ... physically and skill level we just are not there right now,” Johnson said.

Davis also said, “We didn’t call him Wilt the Stilt. We called him String Bean because he was so skinny. And he wasn’t 7-feet yet. He was probably about 6-9, 6-91⁄2. He grew when he was here.”

In many ways, Lawrence has grown. Be-

ing part of the state of Kansas at a time when some politicians outside of Douglas County seem to have lost their minds and hearts, Lawrence is in danger of shrinking, lest the state Senate kill the hate bill, as it appears now that it will.

son winding down and the Jayhawks constantly mindful of the need to be above .500 to qualify for some form of postseason play, the focus is on winning as many games down the stretch as they can. For the seniors on the roster, the stakes are even higher.

“I think it really hit me after the Oklahoma game,” senior point guard CeCe Harper said. “We know what we have to do.

It’s not a maybe thing, it’s, we need to do this, we have to win these games, and everyone has picked up their intensity in practices and in games. I think we understand, and I think we’re gonna make it happen.”

“I think so, because of her discipline,” the KU coach said. “I’ve never had a kid more disciplined than her. I never have. Everything. Not just the shot, but the decisions she makes, the choices she makes, her effort.

Who’s more disciplined than that kid? Nobody.”

The way Knight sees it, all of the things her coach praised about her exist because it’s the only way she knows how to play the game.

“There’s definitely a process to shooting,” Knight said. “But if you’re ready to shoot, it’s more likely to go in. If not, you probably shouldn’t take the shot.”

Self: Wesley ‘terrific’ as Wilt

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University basketball coach/amateur movie critic Bill Self gave a resounding thumbs up to KU senior forward Justin Wesley’s portrayal of Wilt Chamberlain in the film “Jayhawkers,” which premiered before a full house Friday night in Lied Center.

“I thought my guy did a terrific job. I did. I figured he’d be a natural in that particular role. He was better than even what I thought he’d be,” Self said after attending the movie on Valentine’s Day with his wife, Cindy.

“I loved it. I thought it was great,” Self added of local director Kevin Willmott’s story of KU coach Phog Allen bringing Chamberlain to KU during the still early stages of the civil-rights move-

ment. “It was well done, classy, certainly a great way to spend your evening.

“It reminded me a little of ‘Glory Road’ on a much lesser scale of what young men went through at that time, all the pressures and challenges. I think they did a good job of displaying that,” Self added.

Wesley, who wore a black suit and slacks, white shirt and red tie to the showing, could not comment on his performance in accordance with NCAA rules.

His mom, Charlene Taylor-Mask, who attended, said: “I am so very proud of Justin, all his achievements on court and off court. I think he should be very good (in acting),” she added. “He acts out a lot with myself and Keith (Langford, brother) and

his other brother (Kevin).

He generally gets what he wants so he must be pretty good.”

Wesley’s college roommate of three years, Jeff Withey, also attended, as did the members of KU’s current team. Some, like Landen Lucas, wore suitcoat and tie; others went with a more casual look.

“I’m really excited for him,” said Withey, a rookie with the New Orleans Pelicans on AllStar break. “To be able to do a movie and be a college basketball player and student is not easy.

It takes a lot of time and effort. I love the guy.

He’s like my brother. I’m happy for him, and I’m excited.”

“Jayhawkers” will be shown at 11 a.m., 7 and 9 p.m. today and 1, 4 and 7 p.m. Sunday at Lied Center. Tickets are available at Lied Center box office.

FSHS boys upended ————

UMKC signee sparks O-South

By Mack McClure Special to the Journal-World

Olathe — The deliberate, tempo-driven ways of Olathe South High, featuring 6-foot senior point guard Noah Knight, can suck the momentum out of an opponent.

Especially when the Falcons are knocking down shots like they did Friday night during a 64-50 Sunflower League boys basketball triumph over visiting Free State.

Knight, bound for Missouri-Kansas City, scored a team-high 16 points as Olathe South finished with a flourish. The Falcons, who outscored Free State 24-12 in the fourth quarter, shot a torrid 67 percent from the floor on the night (22 for 33). They made six of seven shots and convert 10 of 12 free throws in the final eight minutes.

“They move the ball well and shoot it well,” Free State coach Chuck Law said of Olathe South (8-9). “They’re a dangerous team when they shoot the ball that way.

“We had some success in the first half speeding them up a little bit with our press and getting some turnovers.”

Free State (10-6) was led by 6-foot-4 senior Khadre Lane, an insideout threat who led all scorers with 17 points, including 13 after halftime.

Sharpshooting southpaw Cole Moreano, a 6-4 senior, had a trio of threepoint hits and finished with 12 points for the Firebirds. Blake Winslow added nine points, and Tristan Garber finished with eight, including a pair of threes.

FREE STATE SENIOR KEITH LONEKER (15) GOES FOR A PUTBACK off an offensive rebound as Olathe South sophomore Brian Sullivan defends. O-South beat FSHS, 64-50, on Friday in Olathe.

“We had a hard time scoring the ball in the second half at times, and it made it difficult to get your stuff press-wise, at times,” Law said. “(Olathe South) made some nice adjustments, and when they have a player like that, a dynamic Div. Itype of point guard …

(Knight) gets the ball in his hands, he knows how to play, and he gets his teammates organized.

“He’s a load. He really is.”

The Firebirds trailed 11-7 after the opening quarter before they outscored South 19-14 in the second period to seize a 26-25 lead at halftime.

Free State made six of seven field goals in the second quarter, including a pair of three-pointers by

Garber, while the Falcons made five of eight — four of them threes — including a trio by Ryan Collins.

But Free State couldn’t replicate its secondquarter fortunes after the break. They shot only 3-for-12 in the third quarter and 4-for-16 in the fourth to finish 16-for-42.

but in the second half we came out and got layups,” said Barbee, who fell just short of a triple-double with 13 points, six rebounds and seven steals.

“Our defense is what led to our offense.”

The Lions (13-3) trailed midway through the third quarter before Roberts dribbled past his defender for a layup while drawing the foul, which sparked a 6-0 run. Barbee grabbed a steal on the next possession before senior Connor Henrichs launched a three-pointer to give Lawrence a 32-28 lead. Roberts followed by getting a steal and finding Barbee for a transition layup.

The Ravens (7-9) cut Lawrence’s lead to three points in the final 30 seconds, but Bonner grabbed a Barbee miss and drilled a jump shot at the thirdquarter buzzer.

LHS didn’t turn the ball over in the second half while forcing nine turnovers.

“We finally picked up the intensity and started jumping passing lanes, doubling down on the bigs, and that helped a lot,” said LHS junior Ben Rajewski, who grabbed two of the team’s 14 steals in the game.

The Lions went to zone in the second quarter but came out of halftime with an aggressive man-toman defense that caused fits for the Ravens.

“We wanted to kind of tweak things a little bit and see where we were at, try to mix things up a little bit,” Lewis said.

“I thought the guys responded well to what we were trying to do. We settled in to what we thought was going to be most successful and ran with it.”

Roberts scored seven of his game-high 19 points at the free-throw line in the final three minutes.

The Lions will play host to Shawnee Mission North at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

LAWRENCE HIGH FRESHMAN SKYLAR DRUM (3) DRIVES THE PAINT looking for help against Olathe Northwest on Friday in Olathe. The Lions fell, 66-48.

LHS girls lose game, find PG

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — Lawrence High’s girls basketball team didn’t end Friday’s game with a victory at Olathe Northwest. They did walk away with confidence in their new point guard.

After junior point guard Marissa Pope suffered a likely season-ending left foot injury and freshman starter Jaycie Bishop sat out due to a concussion, freshman Skylar Drum was given the keys to offense.

Drum responded with six points, five assists, eight rebounds and only five turnovers against Olathe Northwest’s halfcourt-trap defense that constantly tried to double-team her in an eventual 66-48 LHS loss.

“Skylar in my opinion was amazing,” Lions coach Nick Wood said.

“For a freshman to have to come in there in late February and for us to give her the keys and say, ‘We need you, kid,’ she did amazing.”

Drum only had one turnover in the first half as the Lions fought to a 32-30 halftime deficit.

“It was a little scary at first,” Drum said. “Once I got into it, I didn’t really think about it, I just played.”

Wood added: “She handled the pressure.

It didn’t look like it was her first game having to play basically the entire game, handle the ball, get us in offense, guard their best player, all the above.

What a great performance by her and so proud of her. She did great.”

The Ravens (8-8) opened the third quarter on a 11-4 run, as the Lions (4-12) missed four of their first five shots and turned the ball over six times.

“We didn’t give ourselves a chance to hang around in the game,” Wood said. “We came out in those first few minutes in the third quarter and had a few defensive lapses, and they made shots, and we weren’t making shots. That allowed them to get out in front.”

LAWRENCE (48) Olivia Lemus 2-3 0-0 5, Skylar Drum 2-5 1-2 6, Brook Sumonja 0-2 0-0 0, Makayla Bell 2-8 0-1 5, Hailey Belcher 1-4 0-0 3, Kionna Coleman 9-21 5-10 24, Jolona Shield 2-7 0-0 5, Alexis Boyd 0-0 0-2 0. Totals 18-50 6-15 48.

FREE STATE SENIOR SCOUT WIEBE, RIGHT, AND OLATHE SOUTH JUNIOR JORDAN MORTON DIVE for a possession during their game Friday in Olathe. The Firebirds fell, 55-45.

FSHS girls fall just short

By Mack McClure Special to the Journal-World

Olathe — Free State High’s girls basketball team made a serious run at perennial Class 6A powerhouse Olathe South on Friday night.

Buoyed by a 17-7 surge, FSHS trailed by just one in the third and by three heading into the fourth.

These longtime rivals seemed destined for another Sunflower League clash that would go down to the final minute of play.

But Olathe South had other ideas. The Falcons, who have advanced to the state tournament in each of the previous nine seasons, stood firm in the fourth quarter to register a 55-45 victory over the Firebirds.

Olathe South, which improved to 14-1, was led by Kylee Kopatich, a 5-foot-10 junior who scored a game-high 19 points, one of three players scoring in double-figures for South. Samantha Samsky added 12 points and Bailey Rinehart 10.

Free State (7-9) was led

by Madison Piper, a 5-10 freshman, with 14 points, and Scout Wiebe, a 5-8 senior, finished with 13.

“Madison had a great second half and actually allowed Scout to start driving and creating some things as well,” Free State coach Bryan Duncan said. “(Madison) was guarding and being guarded by the best player in the league (Kopatich), and Madison is one of the best players in the league herself.”

During the Firebirds’ third-quarter run, Wiebe drained a pair of threepointers, and Maren Kahler nailed her second three of the night to help Free State get back into contention. Wiebe also had a free throw during the sizz, Millie Shade scored off a drive, and then Piper scored off a putback and also converted a three-point play, closing the gap to 40-39.

But Rinehart scored on the block on the other end at the 1:20 mark for South’s three-point lead.

“What we talked about at halftime was that we just had to relax and play,” Duncan said, “and that’s what happened.

“I think we made the run that we needed to, but we weren’t able to get that last basket to get over the hump and take the lead.”

In the fourth quarter, South was able to build on its small lead and held on down the stretch.

Free State’s third-quarter outburst materialized after it managed just seven points in the second quarter. Olathe South led 31-22 at halftime.

FREE STATE (45) Adriana Jadlow 3-4 0-0 6, Hannah Walter 0-0 0-0 0, Scout Wiebe 5-10 1-2 13, Madison Piper 4-13 5-5 14, Millie Shade 3-6 0-0 6, Maren Kahler 2-3 0-0 6, Hannah Shoemaker 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 17-36 6-7 45.

OLATHE SOUTH (55) Kala Holder 1-1 0-0 3, Zoe Matje 1-2 0-0 2, Deja Nae Roebuck 1-3 1-2 3, Kylee Kopatich 7-14 5-6 19, Samantha Samskey 5-6 2-2 12, Bailey Rinehart 4-12 2-4 10, Jordan Morton 3-7 0-0 6.

Totals 22-45 10-14 55 FSHS 15 7 1 6 — 45 O-South 18 13 11 13 — 55 Three-point goals: Free State 5-10 (Wiebe 2-3, Kahler 2-2, Piper 1-2, Shade 0-3); Olathe South 1-8 (Holder 1-1, Kopatich 0-5, Roebuck 0-1, Rinehart 0-1).

Turnovers: Free State 10, Olathe South 7.

Eudora — The Veritas Christian girls basketball team exploded for 31 points in the second quarter on its way to a 57-20 win on Senior Night.

Senior Hannah Gloss led the Eagles with 16 points.

Veritas coach Kevin Shelton was pleased with how his team played with a sense of togetherness, and believed that the Eagles’ stifling defense led to the offensive outburst in the second quarter.

“Obviously our defense was the difference in the game tonight,” Shelton

said. “Our focus was better on defense was what I really liked.”

Veritas (11-9) will play today at Bishop Seabury.

Veritas 9 31 8 9 — 57 Flint Hills 4 5 5 6 — 20 Veritas: Gloss 16, Krestan 14, Boland 7, Wilson 5, Huslig 5, Dressler 4, Birmingham 2, Holland 2.

Lions look to surprise at league wrestling

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — Lawrence High’s wrestling team won’t walk into the Sunflower League championship at 9 a.m. today with the high ranking that it had last year.

Instead, the Lions are hoping to surprise some teams with their own expectations in the tournament at Olathe North.

“We want to finish in the top half, for sure,” LHS coach Pat Naughton said. “Going by the

seeds and everything so far, it looks pretty good. We have four open (weight classes) going in. That’s going to hurt us. But everybody seems to be in the same boat as we are.”

Sophomore Alan Clothier, the top-ranked wrestler at 182 pounds in Class 6A in the latest Kansas Wrestling Coaches Association poll, hopes to defend his league title.

“I’m going to go in there with the same mind-set that I had last

year,” Clothier said, “to win it and just to go in there and wrestle my butt off.”

Clothier has won several tournaments this season and may face defending state champion Shawnee Mission Northwest’s LaPhonso McKinnis, who he beat twice last year.

Senior Alex Jones (285), ranked No. 5 in Class 6A, and Ryan Bellinger (170) are also expected to contend for titles in their weight classes.

in my friend Ryan,” Jones said. “I feel like we are at the same skill level, and we have the same amount of threat to the competition. I feel like we have a much better chance at achieving our goals than last year.”

The Lions are also hoping for big contributions from Xavier Kenney (106) and Isias Rojo (160) to improve their team score. Kenney has missed half the season due to injuries.

Meanwhile, Free State High’s wrestling team is

looking to build off recent tournament success despite battling injuries.

The Firebirds will be without senior Colton Steele (160), ranked No. 5 in Class 6A, who has been out sick.

“It’s just a matter of trying to survive this whole season and stuff,” Firebirds coach Mike Gillman said. “We got banged up.

We’re limping in a little bit with some injuries, but I expect my kids to produce pretty well. Last weekend we had a great tournament so I think

we’re going to build off that.”

With Steele out, the Firebirds will look to Tyler Sampson (285) and sophomore Sam Skwarlo (170) for strong contributions. Skwarlo is also hoping for a chance to get some payback from a sudden-death loss earlier this season.

“He’s got a little revenge factor against a senior at Lawrence High (Bellinger) that he kind of wants to go against,” Gillman said. “I expect him to do really good things.”

TOP 25 COLLEGE BASKETBALL

ASU tops Arizona in 2OT The Associated Press

Arizona St. 69, No. 2 Arizona 66, 2OT Tempe, Ariz. — Jermaine Marshall scored eight of his 29 points in the second overtime, and Jordan Bachynski blocked T.J. McConnell’s layup attempt with six seconds left, sending Arizona State past Arizona on Friday night.

With both teams struggling offensively most of the night, Arizona State (19-6, 7-5 Pac-12) turned to Marshall when it counted. He went over 20

minutes without a field goal, but hit consecutive three-pointers and scored on a drive with 14 seconds left to put the Sun Devils up 67-66.

McConnell then tried to drive the lane, but Bachynski swatted his shot away, leading to a breakaway dunk by Jahii Carson.

Arizona State’s fans rushed the court, had to be cleared because there was 0.8 seconds left, then poured out of the stands again after Nick Johnson missed a three-pointer at the buzzer.

No. 13 Louisville 82, Temple 58 Philadelphia — Montrezl Harrell scored a career-high 22 points, and Louisville built a 30-point first-half lead en route to a victory over Temple.

No. 23 SMU 77, Rutgers 65 Piscataway, N.J. — Nic Moore scored 16 of his 21 points in the second half, and SMU won as a ranked team for the first time in 29 years, beating Rutgers. Nick Russell had 16 points for the Mustangs.

SCOREBOARD

SPRING TRAINING

Royals crave playoffs run Surprise, Ariz. (ap) — Starting pitcher James Shields entered Royals camp Friday wearing a shirt with the word “propaganda” on the front.

The Royals begin spring training with hopes of ending a 29-yearold playoff drought since winning the 1985 World Series.

“The Royals’ propaganda, I think we’ve going to have a really good spring training,” Shields said. “I’m real excited to be here and get going.

Hopefully, we can continue doing what we did at the end of the year last year.

“We’re in high spirits.

We’ve got a lot of work to do. I think spring training is where it all starts. Our main goal this year is to go to the playoffs and win the World Series, bottom line. We don’t take anything for granted.”

The Royals went 86-76 in 2013, their first winning season since 2003 and their most victories since 1989 when John Wathan managed the club to a 9270 record.

They remained in the chase for a wild-card playoff berth until the final week of the season, but finished 51⁄2 games back of Tampa Bay for the final spot.

“I think our players were able to have some quality experience of being in a pennant race,” general manager Dayton Moore said. “Prior to that, battling through a real tough May when the expectations were high, they battled through it.”

The Royals lost 20 of 28 games in May and were six games below .500 at the All-Star game, but finished 43-27 after the break.

“Credit Ned (Yost) and the coaching staff getting through that tough time and got the ship righted and start very well,” Moore said. “It was predicated primarily on our pitching and defense. I think that quality experience allowed them hopefully understand the rhythm of the Major Leagues, kind of the ups and downs.”

The Royals welcomed 31 pitchers and six catchers, including All-Star and Gold Glove winner Salvador Perez, to the opening of spring train-

ing on Friday, but several have been at the Surprise complex for several days for volunteer workouts.

Although the reporting date for position players is not until Wednesday, several are already working out, including 2013 Gold Glove winners left fielder Alex Gordon and first baseman Eric Hosmer, designated hitter Billy Butler and newly acquired second baseman Omar Infante.

Spring training is no longer a six-week period for players to get in condition.

“Everybody comes in in shape,” Royals manager Yost said. “They like to work. It doesn’t really get stale for them, so no need to really freshen up on anything. They’ll all been here for the most part. I told the position players not to come in tomorrow as they’ve been working hard down here.

“As a player I didn’t like standing around. I didn’t like doing things that I didn’t think helped us in any way just to be doing things, so we try to eliminate all of that. Spring trainings have run really smoothly the last eight or nine years, so I don’t have to tweak it much.”

Shields will be a big key to the Royals’ success this season.

He went 0-4 last May, despite his 2.92 earnedrun average for the month. He was 4-1 in September with a 3.18 ERA to finish 13-9 with a 3.15 ERA. “We know it’s a long season, 162 games in 181 days, that’s a lot of games,” Shields said.

Shields, who pitched in the playoffs three years with Tampa Bay before being traded to the Royals after the 2012 season, believes this season could be longer, extended into October.

“Last year I compared the two teams,” Shields said. “I’m not going to do that. We’re our own team now. We’ve established ourselves as a good team. I think the dynamic of this team is from top to bottom, whether its defense, base running, pitching, our bullpen and our offense, I think overall we’re really good. We just need to be able to put it together.”

NBA RISING STARS CHALLENGE

Drummond dandy in Team Hill victory New Orleans (ap) — Andre Drummond had 30 points and a Rising Stars Challenge-record 25 rebounds, leading Team Hill to a 142-136 victory over Team Webber on Friday night.

Besides an impressive tally of dunks and rebounds, Drummond even managed to make his free throws while winning MVP honors. A 41 percent shooter during the regular season, the Detroit forward went 6 for 8, including a pair with 29 seconds left after chasing down Bradley Beal’s missed free throw to give his team a five-point lead.

Cleveland’s Dion Waiters had 31 points, mostly coming during a 1-on-1 duel with New York’s Tim Hardaway Jr. in the second half. Beal finished with 21 for Team Hill, picked by former NBA star Grant Hill.

Hardaway scored 36 points and made seven three-pointers for fellow former Michigan star

Chris Webber’s squad.

Philadelphia rookie Michael Carter-Williams had 17 points, nine assists and six rebounds.

Portland’s Damian Lillard had 13 points, five rebounds and five assists in the victory, making him 1 for 1 during the busiest AllStar weekend ever. Last season’s NBA Rookie of the Year will take part in five events, three more on All-Star Saturday and the All-Star game on Sunday.

All-Stars such as Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard and Kyrie Irving watched the game, with Irving leaping to his feet at one point after watching Waiters, his Cavaliers teammate, try to take over the game with about eight minutes to play.

Waiters had two baskets and then two threepointers, one of them when he stepped back after faking a move to the basket that made Hardaway lose his balance.

Hardaway answered back with two three-pointers.

Dear Annie: I have been with my fiance for 14 years, and we have had our fair share of problems. Three months ago, I left, taking our kids with me. But I came back when he asked me to. I figured I owed it to the children to try to work things out. But nothing has changed.

I don’t have a job outside the home. However, I do have credit card debt. He used to help pay it off, but now he refuses to pay any of my bills. He won’t give me any money except to buy groceries.

Our car used to be in both of our names, but now it is only in his. I’m not allowed to go anywhere without permission or to talk to any of my family and friends unless he says it’s OK. We also live with his parents, and every time I don’t do the dishes, they complain. I do all the other housework, but it

isn’t enough. What do I do? — At My Wits’ End Dear Wits: Get out.

This is an abusive relationship. Your fiance has removed all sources of income and support from you so that you are completely dependent on him. Please contact the Domestic Violence Hotline (thehotline.org) at 1-800799-7233. You need help now.

Dear Annie: My son and his first wife had a destination wedding in a foreign country. My

Viral videos prove educational

husband and I hosted an engagement party in our hometown, and a friend of mine threw the bride a shower. My son and daughter-inlaw divorced, and he is now engaged and planning a second wedding.

My brother-in-law made a comment that he and his wife do not send gifts for second weddings. My son is torn about how to handle the invitations. While it is his second marriage, it is the bride’s first. He doesn’t think she should be penalized because his first wife ended their marriage.

What is the etiquette regarding this matter? We certainly don’t want anyone to feel that my son and his fiancee are wanting heaps of gifts, especially when these family members and friends “showered” him with gifts the first time around. — Vexed

‘‘Ghost Adventures” (8 p.m. Saturday, Travel) enters its ninth season. The series combines the faux technology of “Ghostbusters” with the gullibility of 10-year-olds at a slumber party.

In tonight’s episode, “Ghost” hosts Zak Bagans, Nick Groff and Aaron Goodwin look into a Los Angeles home reportedly haunted by the spirit of the late actress Sharon Tate, who was pregnant at the time she was gruesomely murdered

Saturday’s other highlights

Olympics coverage (7 p.m., NBC) includes: alpine skiing, short-track speedskating, speedskating and ski jumping.

Murder in Amish country on “Rake” (7 p.m., Fox).

Gary Oldman, Toni Collette and Nick Frost appear on “The Graham Norton Show” (9 p.m., BBC America).

BIRTHDAYS Songwriter Brian Holland is 73. Jazz musician Henry Threadgill is 70. Actress Lynn Whitfield is 61. “Simpsons” creator Matt Groening is 60. Model Janice Dickinson is 59. Rock musician Ronnie Vannucci (The Killers) is 38. Actress Natalie Morales is 29.

Mother of the Groom Dear Vexed: Firsttime brides are entitled to wedding and shower gifts, regardless of the groom’s prior marital history. Of course, shower invitations can be weighted toward her family and friends, but also may include close family members and friends of the groom.

Guests who feel overburdened with shower gifts do not have to attend. Those who sent gifts for your son’s first wedding may wish to give a more modest gift the second time around. The intention is to invite people to share the celebration.
