KANSAS UNIVERSITY IS HOME TO TWO MASSIVE MEMORIALS TO WORLD WAR I, which is marking its 100th anniversary: Memorial Stadium, pictured at upper left, and the Kansas Memorial Union, the red brick building to the right of Dyche Hall, which is at center.

Few know World War I roots of popular sites on KU campus

Two of Kansas University’s most trafficked buildings were constructed as memorials to KU’s casualties of World War I. As the Great War marks its 100th anniversary most of the tens of thousands of fans packing Memorial Stadium each fall, or the thousands of students and visitors flowing through the Kansas Memorial Union each day, don’t know the buildings’ significance — which is one reason KU hasn’t constructed buildings as memorials since.

Except for the name “Memorial Stadium” in a few spots, the stadium has no obvious signage noting its WWI roots.

Read more about KU’s involvement in World War I, and the construction of Memorial Stadium and the Kansas Memorial Union, on the sixth floor of the Union, 1301 Jayhawk Blvd.

The KU History website, kuhistory.com, also has related articles, including “Rising for the fallen,” “Kansas must have a stadium!” and “We remember.”

This photo of Joseph C. Liggett is among 129 photos of KU students and alumni who died while in service during World War I, displayed on the sixth floor of the Kansas Memorial Union.

The union — where “Kansas Union” is carved over the main entrance — has a small plaque on

its main level, but reading more requires a trip to the top floor.

William Towns, former union operations manager and KU history scholar, said that times and decorum were different back then. He said it wasn’t unusual for memorials to be less “self-aggrandizing.”

At the same time, Towns and some others say it’s too bad that tributes to the buildings’

valiant beginnings aren’t more prominent now.

The stadium, in particular, surprised Ray Liggett and relatives, who learned it was a war memorial only after stumbling across genealogical information on a great uncle who was one of KU’s WWI casualties.

“I thought ... surely there was a plaque that indicated why they

Topeka — The U.S. Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division announced Friday it has reached a settlement agreement with the Kansas Department of Corrections to prevent sexual abuse of female prisoners at the Topeka Correctional Facility.

for more than four years,” Barclay said.

He said the prison has undergone several changes in response to the report, including the hiring of more female correctional officers and additional training about gender-specific issues with female prisoners.

“It’s easy to think that a prisoner is a prisoner, but female prisoners have specific needs,” he said.

In addition, he said, the prison has upgraded its security with the addition of 300 security cameras so officials can more closely monitor movement among prisoners and staff.

The report in 2012 found that the state failed to employ accepted practices to protect female prisoners from sexual abuse and misconduct and that TCF did not have effective procedures to classify and manage predatory guards and prisoners, the Justice Department said.

It also found that TCF lacked effective investigative and grievance processes and did not have enough officers, including female officers, to ap-

such as underfunding of the state pension system, the use of highway funds to pay for general fund expenditures and the fact that the state is not meeting its ending balance requirement, Moody’s said Kansas is now working with a “structural deficit” of about $1.26 billion, or 20 percent of the state’s current-year budget.

The agreement requires the state to comply with the Prison Rape Elimination Act National Standards and that the state mandate zero tolerance of all forms of sexual abuse and sexual harassment, the Justice Department said. It also requires the state to implement specific policies and procedures designed to prevent, detect and respond to such conduct.

The state is also required to adopt policies to ensure that it responds effectively to any allegations of sexual abuse or sexual harassment and that it ensures prompt corrective action, up to and including firing any staff member who sexually assaults or abuses an inmate.

Finally, TCF will ensure that all staff are trained on their responsibilities to prevent sexual abuse and on how to identify, detect, report and respond to allegations of sexual abuse. The female prisoners at TFC will similarly be educated on these issues. Implementation of the agreement will be overseen by a monitor who will issue a compliance report every six months.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt filed a lawsuit against a New Jersey-based company that sent false invoices for textbooks that were never purchased to over 300 Kansas public schools, including those in Lawrence.

Hochman and Buchman received a $250 cash prize from Truity Credit Union after being nominated by the district.

Kansas False Claims Act. Armstrong is an individual doing business as Scholastic School Supply of Franklinville, N.J., according to a news release from Schmidt’s office.

The company has no affiliation with Scholastic Inc., a well-known publisher of children’s books.

Julie Boyle, a spokeswoman for the Lawrence school district, said one invoice was received “for just about every school in our district.” She said the invoices were determined to be fake and

none were paid.

Multiple school districts complained to Schmidt’s office about the invoices, which were received between September and December 2014. None of the schools had ordered textbooks from the company.

The Kansas False Claims Act gives the attorney general authority to file suit against individuals or entities that submit fraudulent claims for payment to a state agency or local government.

Board: Doctor license revocation justified Topeka ­­— A Kansas doctor scrutinized for referring young patients for late-term abortions remains barred from practicing medicine after a state board declared Friday that her inadequate recordkeeping justified the revocation of her license.

The State Board of Healing Arts stripped Dr. Ann Kristin Neuhaus of her license to provide charity care in 2012, finding she had performed substandard mental health exams in 2003 for 11 patients ages 10 to 18 before referring them to the late Dr. George

Tiller's clinic in Wichita.

Neuhaus is from the small town of Nortonville, about 30 miles north of Lawrence. Board members concluded Friday that the record-keeping issues were serious enough that Neuhaus shouldn't be allowed to practice medicine.

Just a month later, the KU student was dead, a victim of the influenza epidemic. He never deployed.

After learning he was ill, Liggett’s family traveled nearly 300 miles from tiny Almena to Lawrence to see him before he died.

The epidemic forced KU to close for a month and killed about two dozen at the university, mostly Army Training Corps members, according to KU History. KU’s 129 total WWI casualties also included two women.

That history and more is displayed on the sixth floor of the union, along with photographs of all 129.

Towns said the stadium eventually was separated from KU’s Memorial Corporation and is now run by KU Athletics instead. He is glad the union has added wallboards highlighting KU history, including nods to the buildings’ WWI roots.

Towns said the union probably would eventually have been constructed in some form, but the fact that a nationwide student union movement — many colleges are home to memorial unions — intersected with the memorial movement of the time and certainly gave it “fuel.”

“World War I was an apocalyptic catastrophe,” he said. “Once it ended there was this almost religious impetus to memorialize warriors.

In Lawrence ... students died in the war effort, so it was natural to memorialize them.”

One of KU’s most famous WWI dead was KU graduate William T. Fitzsimons. According to KU History, Fitzsimons, killed in a 1917 German air attack on a French field hospital where he was working, was known as America’s first official casualty of the war.

Man found guilty of attempted murder in May shooting Co-defendant sentenced to more than 8 years in prison

A 25-year-old Lawrence man pleaded no contest to a charge of attempted second-degree murder, and a 21-yearold Eudora woman was sentenced to more than eight years in prison Friday for their involvement in the Memorial Day shooting on Highway 59 of Skylar Workman, 24, of Lawrence.

Originally charged with attempted firstdegree murder, Edward James “E.J.” Parker pleaded no contest to attempted second-degree murder Friday afternoon, and Douglas County District Judge Peggy Kittel found him guilty.

School board member entering race for City Commission Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw

Lawrence school board member Kristie Adair is ready to make the switch to the Lawrence City Commission.

Adair has filed for a seat on the City Commission, and said she would resign the final two years of her school board term if she wins a seat on the commission.

“It is not something I would even consider,” Adair said of trying to fill both positions. “I would be a servant to two masters, and that is not something I would want to do.”

Adair, 41, said the City Commission seat would give her a chance to have more impact on economic

Well-qualified commissioners are vital to Lawrence

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Serving as a Lawrence city commissioner is a serious and important job. Those elected to one of the five commission seats play a critical role in the growth and development of the city — or they can be a severe detriment or handicap to the city and to Kansas University.

Voters have the responsibility of trying to learn as much as they can about the candidates, their strengths and weaknesses, before casting their votes.

So far, nine candidates have filed in the election race, which will fill three commission seats.

That means a primary election will be held March 3 to narrow the field to six candidates who will advance to the general election on April 7.

Three incumbents — Mike Dever, Terry Riordan and Bob Schumm — will complete their terms this year. Of those, only Schumm has filed for re-elec-

tion. The filing deadline is Jan. 27.

Various city and county elections can be, and have been, used in past years by relative newcomers to the community as a means of becoming better known and establishing an identity in the city.

Others enter an election race hoping to champion a particular cause or represent a certain faction of the community.

Some may be motivated by a desire to use an elected position to enhance their own businesses.

The challenge facing voters is to try to find out as much as they can about why an individual is seeking a city commission seat. The ideal candidate is one who is genuinely interested and committed to doing what is best for the entire community rather than basing his or her decisions on what is in the best interest of his or her own business or career.

Recent issues in the city —

COMMENTARY a new $28 million police station; the manner in which the city, KU Endowment Association and KU Athletics officials handled the Rock Chalk Park project; how city officials seem to want to force retail growth in certain areas and stunt it in others and how property ownership influences those decisions; “neighborhood” interests and their desire to play a greater role in city decisions such as the development of the Ninth Street arts corridor; the relationship between city officials and KU; the proper relationship between city commissioners and the city manager; and others — probably have caused more than the normal number of residents to consider seeking a position on the Lawrence City Commission.

Hindsight is great, but, at

times, it seems it might have been best for some commissioners to have removed themselves from the debate on certain matters because their personal interests could have colored their thinking.

It is so important for the public to respect those serving as commissioners. Residents can, and often do, differ or are angry with the actions and decisions made by commissioners, but those unhappy with the commission still should have reason to respect commissioners for making the decisions based on what they think is best for the entire city and not on special interests or their own personal benefit.

Far better to step aside and eliminate suspicion of mixed motives.

Historically, with a city manager form of government, there is the question of who is making policies and running the city: the commission or the city manager. Over the years, Law-

rence has enjoyed good, clean, usually forward-looking city government but, if this record is to continue, the city needs good, honest, properly motivated commissioners.

Unfortunately, Lawrence has lost some of the excitement, enthusiasm, pride and vision that used to be its hallmark. Competition among cities for growth and excellence is becoming more intense, and Lawrence must have honest, visionary, talented and skilled individuals serving as commissioners if the city is to come anywhere near to achieving its potential.

There is no place for special interests, showboating, behindthe-scenes dealing or anything less than a total commitment to serving the best interests of the entire city.

Each commission candidate deserves close examination to determine whether he or she has the necessary skills to be a true, contributing asset for the city.

also plans to discuss the need for more diversity on the commission. A woman has not served on the Lawrence City Commission since Sue Hack left office in 2009. Adair, one of two women who has filed for a seat on the commission this election season, also is American Indian.

Community Living Opportunities, a nonprofit that provides services to individuals with disabilities, operates the center, which is owned by WalMart. Five CLO members are expected to lose their jobs when the center closes. CLO officials said they would work to match the skills of those clients with other potential job opportunities once the center closes.

said at the preliminary hearing that Smith told him Workman had a cellphone of Smith’s since their breakup in 2013.

Armbrister said Parker then took the gun in search of Workman while Smith texted the two men, trying to get Workman’s location so Parker could find him.

After searching for about half an hour, Parker was about to give up when he spotted Workman’s truck ahead of him driving south on Iowa Street, Armbrister said.

Board terms for Marcel Harmon, Bob Byers, Randy Masten, Kimball and Ingram expire June 30.

The Lawrence school board twice had to appoint board members over the last year to fill in vacancies. By law, seats that were filled after a vacancy are subject to an election the following year.

One of the seats will be for a two-year term. The other terms will last four years. The board has seven members.

Harmon was appointed to the board last September. Byers was appointed last June, after serving on the board from 2009 to 2012.

If 16 or more candidates file for the school board, a primary will be held March 3.

Michael Strouse, CLO chief executive officer, said in a release.

The closing of the center was not entirely unexpected. Wal-Mart officials had declined to comment on its future shortly after the city opened its curbside program. The center has been popular with rural residents, who haven’t had access to curbside programs. County officials in recent months have received questions about what type of recycling services could be provided if the center closed.

At a November joint meeting of city, county and school board officials, Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug said his staff was reviewing recycling options. Weinaug said Hamm Inc., the company that operates the city’s recycling processing facility, has offered to set up recycling bins at various locations throughout the county. Weinaug said the county has an interest in that but must find locations that are somewhat supervised in order to prevent large-scale dumping of nonrecyclable materials.

Armbrister testified that Parker said he then followed the truck onto U.S. 59, positioned his vehicle in the truck’s blind spot and shot Workman.

At Smith’s sentencing, Kittel gave her a “downward departure,” meaning the sentence she gave Smith was lower than the minimum suggested sentence by the Kansas Sentencing Guidelines, which call for a minimum of 109 months in prison.

Kittel said she delivered the lesser sentence at the defendant’s request because of Smith’s family’s letters of support, lack of serious criminal history and the fact that Smith worked to graduate from high school

while in jail.

“The court understands you are not the person who pulled the trigger, but makes it very clear the court understands that you are the one who set all this up,” Kittel told Smith.

Workman suffered gunshot wounds to his abdomen but recovered following treatment at Stormont Vail Hospital in Topeka. As part of Smith’s sentence, she is ordered to pay Workman more than $121,500 in restitution for his medical bills.

Parker will be sentenced Feb. 20. Depending on his criminal history, he could face 55 to 247 months in prison.

Radical Islam already curbing free speech Wednesday’s shocking terror attack on the French satirical journal Charlie Hebdo should finally awaken Western publics to the threat posed by radical Islamists to free speech worldwide.

That threat may seem obvious when 10 journalists from a newspaper that published caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad are murdered by masked men with Kalashnikovs shouting “Allahu Akbar.”

Yet these assassinations follow a rising number of death threats and violent protests by Islam-

“

Let’s hope the Charlie Hebdo murders debunk that fuzzy thinking.

Religious zealots can’t be permitted to define the limits of our free speech.” ic fundamentalists against Western books, films, or newspapers they deem offensive. Many Western observers have blamed the authors — for disrespecting Islam — rather than those who organize the violence.

Let’s hope the Charlie Hebdo murders debunk that fuzzy thinking. Religious zealots can’t be permitted to define the limits of our free speech.

That was the attitude of Charlie Hebdo, whose comic jibes spared no one. In 2011, the magazine’s office was fire-

bombed as it was about to publish a cartoon cover depicting the prophet Muhammad saying, “100 lashes if you’re not dying of laughter.”

“We want to laugh at the extremists — every extremist,” staffer Laurent Leger said in a French TV interview in 2012. “They can be Muslim, Jewish, Catholic. Everyone can be religious, but extremist thoughts and acts we cannot accept.”

“In France, we always have the right to write and draw,” he added.

“And if some people are not happy with this, they can sue us and we can defend ourselves.

That’s democracy. You don’t throw bombs; you discuss, you debate. But you don’t act violently.”

(Leger was wounded this week but survived).

Yet when Islamic fundamentalists repeatedly threatened violence for Western media portrayals of the prophet Muhammad, many commentators blamed the victims. These threats began when Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa in 1989 calling for the death of author Salman Rushdie because his novel The Sa-

tanic Verses supposedly “insulted” Islam. Many Western critics labeled Rushdie a provocateur.

When the Danish newspaper JyllandsPosten published cartoons of Muhammad in 2005, leading to deadly riots in several Muslim countries and death threats against the cartoonists, many observers blamed the newspaper.

They ignored those who incited the mayhem — such as the Danish imam who traveled to Cairo and stirred up riots over cartoons few Egyptians had seen.

Death threats against Jyllands-Posten continued for years, including a plot by a Pakistani terrorist group that was discovered. Only four U.S. newspapers had the guts to print any of the cartoons to inform their readers. I’m proud to say The Inquirer was one of the four.

The editor at JyllandsPosten who had assigned the cartoons, Flemming Rose, explained the rationale for running them: “The idea wasn’t to provoke gratuitously — and we certainly didn’t intend to trigger violent demonstrations,” he

wrote in the Washington Post in early 2006.

“Our goal was simply to push back self-imposed limits on expression that seemed to be closing in tighter.”

Rose was referring to a series of decisions at the time by European book editors and museums to avoid photos or exhibits that might offend Islamic fundamentalists, along with the request of a group of Danish imams that the Danish government censor press coverage of Islam.

I spoke by phone to Rose in Copenhagen. (He recently published a prescient book in the United States titled “The Tyranny of Silence: How One Cartoon Ignited a Global Debate on the Future of Free Speech.”) “Today cannot be a surprise to anyone who has followed events over the past 10 years,” he said, sadly.

“Charlie Hebdo was maybe the only paper in Europe that, didn’t cave in after what we went through or after the fatwa against Rushdie,” Rose continued. Most other media in Europe accepted self-censorship due to intimidation or fear of violence, but

“Charlie Hebdo kept making fun of all kinds of religions, including Islam, despite the death threats. Today they paid the price for not being willing to shut up.”

The question now, says Rose, is how Europeans and Americans will react to these murders. “Are we going to accept this new order — in which we have to be very careful of what we say? Or are we going to ask ourselves what are the minimum limits in order to live in peace with each other?”

In Rose’s mind, those limits should exclude any incitement to violence. “It should be a criminal offense to say ‘attack Muslims’.” he says, but not to offend Muslims — or any other religious group — in a newspaper or text. That, he says, is the price of living in a democracy, where the right to free speech distinguishes between words and deeds.

Moreover, giving in to self-censorship does no favor to Muslims.

Would-be Muslim reformers in the Arab world and elsewhere are suffering from blasphemy laws that threaten death to anyone who criticizes their religion.

And the Charlie Hebdo murders are likely to help the European far right and create more prejudice against Islam than any cartoons.

It’s long past time to stand up against the assault on free speech in Europe and elsewhere.

As Charlie Hebdo’s editor, Stephane Charbonnier (killed Wednesday), told Le Monde in 2012, “I am not killing anyone with my pen. I am not the violent person here.”

PUBLIC FORUM

Moving forward?

To the editor: I read that certain city commissioners are congratulating themselves because Lawrence taxpayers are thrilled with the current state of affairs in city government. According to them, “(The public) see infrastructure projects that are needed and being completed, and they see other projects moving ahead.”

Really?

Tuesday, our crack leadership team voted to pay $1.055 million to Thomas Fritzel for things associated with Rock Chalk Park, and only then to consider hiring an outside auditor (at taxpayer’s expense) to examine the invoice. It also appears that the city didn’t even reserve the authority to do a meaningful audit, as that right is reserved to the Kansas University Endowment Association.

Did any of our commissioners even look at this ghastly no-bid contract before they signed it and then congratulated themselves? Do they really think it was just a coincidence that the voters resoundingly voted down the proposed police center? Is the police center a project that is “moving forward?” How about the tax-

free development proposed for South Iowa that was rejected by them? Was it because it didn’t involve land owned by certain developers?

How about the curious (and relatively useless) milliondollar roundabout just built on Wakarusa Drive, which even the city engineers said was unnecessary?

Our residents are getting sick and tired of helping millionaire builders and developers become even more wealthy because of incompetent or indifferent city management.

Richard L. Warrick, Lawrence

Library effort To the editor: Yes, there is yet another local library with a rapidly growing vision of what can be. It is clear that the Eudora Public Library is about to burst the seams of its tiny building in downtown Eudora. The demand for professional library services and programs is unprecedented in the library’s history!

EPL, a township library serving the Eudora Township including the City of Eudora, took a major step forward in 2011 with the acquisition of a great building site acquired through a cooperative venture

with the Eudora School District and the City of Eudora.

In 2012, EPL’s small board began a step-by-step effort to improve the vision, policies, budget and staffing of the library resulting in the acquisition of a highly experienced new director, Carol Wohlford. Carol has bolstered services and programming, increased staffing and promoted awareness and cooperation within the community. And even as this letter is written, a recently reorganized Friends of the Eudora Public Library organization is planning projects to enhance volunteer and project support.

As EPL moves forward, residents and volunteers from the greater Eudora community will play a vital role in providing insight, support and specific assistance to help shape EPL beyond its current very limited space and resources during the coming years.

The board and staff of the Eudora Public Library invite the township and the greater area to share in this renewed effort. We really can create a professional library in which all residents can take ownership and pride.

Stand required To the editor: Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical weekly, was destroyed on Wednesday. Yet another barbarous act threatens civil societies around the globe.

There is nowhere to hide. Journalists are our loudest voice, but not our only voice. When free speech in any form is attacked our collective freedoms are called into question.

If any news outlet remains silent in the frightening, ugly aftermath of such an event, their voice becomes smaller and less relevant. Not all “news”papers need be the New York Times.

However, when the very foundation on which they print is savaged, a stand is required, if they claim to be printing the “news.”

WITCH HAZEL flowers in the winter.

Garden Variety

Jennifer Smith Insect and disease problems are uncommon with the plant.

Crosses between Japanese witch hazel and Chinese witch hazel are also common in the landscape industry. They are known by horticulturists as Hamamelis x intermedia, and by their cultivar names, including Arnold’s Promise, Diane and Jelena (sometimes called Copper Beauty). They typically flower very early like vernal witch hazel, but vary in flower color, fall color and plant size. For example, Arnold’s Promise is vaseshaped with a touch of red in the center of its flowers and better fall color than other varieties.

American witch hazel is significantly larger than vernal witch hazel, reaching as much as 20 feet tall at maturity. It is native to most of the eastern half of the United States, including Missouri and Arkansas.

American witch hazel blooms from October to December, at about the same time its leaves also turn bright yellow.

Witch hazel also provides a useful product that dates back to Native Americans and early settlers. Extracts distilled from the leaves and bark of American witch hazel were originally used to treat swelling and inflammation.

Today, witch hazel extracts are widely used in cosmetics, skin treatments, acne medication, hemorrhoid creams and aftershave.

construction of the Canadato-Texas pipeline, with 28 Democrats joining majority Republicans in support. The cause was emboldened Friday, when Nebraska’s highest court tossed out a lawsuit challenging the pipeline’s route, an obstacle the White House said must be removed before it could decide whether the huge cross-border project was in the national interest and the administration could proceed with its own review.

The House vote marked the 10th time the chamber has voted on legislation to advance the Keystone XL pipeline, an $8 billion project that would carry tar sands oil from Canada to Gulf Coast refineries along a proposed 1,179-mile route through Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma.

KU’s Greene grand at free-throw line

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Believe your eyes when watching Jayhawks Newfangled statistical analytics have shed some light on how certain players and teams perform, but they carry way too much weight in that some people don’t trust what they see with their eyes unless it’s when they are using those eyes to read analytics.

I’ll never forget a story I read about how a computer figured out that the Katherine Zeta-Jones had the perfect facial features, bone structure, etc., for the big screen. Really? A computer can make an objective, definitive statement on a subjective topic?

Always trust what your eyes see live, first, and then see if the computer verifies, and if not, ask why not?

As enjoyable as analytics can be at times, it’s still instructive to look at oldfashion, stand-alone numbers and see what stories they tell.

Such as: 1.) Kansas is shooting .905 from the free-throw line in the final five minutes.

What does it say? The players are in the right physical and mental condition to withstand fatigue and pressure. It also says the ball gets into the right hands at times when opponents are likely to commit fouls.

2.) Brannen Greene is 17for-17 from the free-throw line.

What does it say? His form never varies. He nods at whatever the ref tells him, takes two quick dribbles, looks at the rim, swish. His shooting touch is soft, and he loves to shoot, whether it’s with the ball in play or he’s alone at the line, the target of barbs on the road, the center of attention in a silent building at home.

3.) Greene has played 198 minutes and does not yet have a steal.

What does it say? His defensive instincts pale compared to those at the other end. He doesn’t have that super-quick first step some have, and he doesn’t make playing disruptive defense a priority.

4.) Wayne Selden’s twopoint percentage (.348) actually is worse than his three-point percentage (.358).

What does it say? Some of those misses at the rim have come on attempted spectacular dunks. Although such plays do fire up crowds if the ball goes in, it’s generally a better idea to take the highest-percentage shot available. Another possible explanation: He speeds himself so much to make moves, trying to spark a stagnant offense, and puts up the shot before slowing himself down enough to take a soft shot.

5.) Jamari Traylor ranks first on the team with 24 floor burns, and Perry Ellis is second with 21.

What do those stats say?

They have been around long enough to know that the way to earn minutes is to dive for every loose ball as if it were a pot of gold.

Cliff Alexander has no worries when one of his Kansas University basketball buddies steps to the free-throw line.

“It’s icewater every time.

He’s going to knock it down,” the Chicago freshman said of 6-foot-7 sophomore Brannen Greene, who has hit 17 free throws in as many tries heading into today’s 2 p.m. Big 12 Confer-

Greene

ence clash against Texas Tech (105, 0-2).

“He never misses,” Alexander added of Greene in games as well as prac-

tice sessions.

Greene — his two free throws gave the Jayhawks (12-2, 1-0) a 56-53 lead with 6.3 seconds left in Wednes-

day’s 56-55 victory at Baylor — has made 21 straight free throws dating back to last season.

“There’s nobody we’d rather have on the line late than him because basically he has no conscience, which is a good thing when you are shooting them,” coach Bill Self said, adding, “Brannen’s been money from the line.”

Perfection is Greene’s goal.

“I hope so,” the Juliette, Georgia, native said with a

smile, asked if he thought he could go through the whole season without misfiring at the line. “I’ve joked around about it with coach and stuff when we are shooting free throws. Of course that’s a realistic goal. I mean, that would be amazing. That would be really cool. I don’t know who’s done that before. It’s definitely a goal. I don’t know if that will happen or not, but we’ll see.”

LHS boys step up defense, rout Olathe South

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High’s boys basketball team is known for its potent offense, which can score a flurry of points in a hurry.

But on Friday, the Lions’ defense stole the show in a 72-41 victory over Olathe South at LHS. In the second quarter, the Lions (8-0) forced five turnovers in a six-possession

stretch, which turned directly into a three-pointer by senior guard John Barbee and four points from senior guard Anthony Bonner via a layup and a pull-up jumper.

Lawrence’s coaches didn’t have much to say at halftime, after Class 6A’s top-ranked team took a 26-12 lead and held the Falcons (3-3) to just three points in the second quarter.

“We were working a lot on team defense because we

know if you’re going to be a good basketball team, that’s the biggest thing you have to do,” LHS junior forward Fred Brou said. “We were able to get turnovers, and just really run and make fast breaks off of that. Make offense from our defense.”

The Lions used their speed to jump into passing lanes, preventing the Falcons (3-3) from even starting their offense. Junior point guard Justin Roberts, who had three

steals, provided hounding full-court ball pressure.

When the Falcons started using back cuts to play against the Lions’ aggressiveness, LHS forwards Brou, junior Price Morgan and senior Logan Applegate were in the paint to block shots. The Lions combined for nine steals and five blocks throughout the game, not to mention the bad passes that were flung Please see LIONS, page 3B

Free State girls reach 7-0 with victory at O-North

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Kevin Anderson/Special to the Journal-World

FREE STATE’S CAMERYN THOMAS (10) attempts to elude Olathe North’s Lexy Watts on Friday night in Olathe.

Olathe — Most opponents know by now that Free State High’s girls basketball team has two highly productive starters in sophomore Madison Piper and senior Sarah Coversup.

That doesn’t mean they have a solution for the Firebirds’ multitalented leaders.

Piper scored 15 of her game-high 27 points in the third quarter, Coversup delivered a double-double (15 points, 14 rebounds), and FSHS remained unbeaten Friday night with a 63-35 victory at Olathe North.

Afterward, the Firebirds (No. 8 in Class 6A, 7-0) could

be heard down the hallway from their locker room, screaming “seven-and-oh,” on repeat. Piper, who also pulled down seven rebounds, said the team’s go-to post player, Coversup, initiated the chant.

“She’s one of the people who gets us excited for the game, one of the people who brings energy,” Piper said of the 6-foot-1 senior who at times feasts on the offensive glass, even if that means collecting her own misses. “It’s just fun to watch her.”

Coversup, who arrived at FSHS as a transfer this year, said setting a tone is part of her job description.

Greene was asked how many he has made in a row when shooting on the side at practice or on his own.

“I made like 100 and something, probably like 130 when I was in high school. When we shoot around, I go, like, 50-for50 sometimes, something like that,” said Greene, who noted he has “had the same routine since I’ve been young. Repetition is key.”

Greene has been bothered by a pinched nerve in his neck the last few games.

“Trainers believe it was from when I got my concussion in the exhibition game (against Washburn on Nov. 3) and is now resurfacing,” Greene said. “It’s the nerves in my neck.

Sometimes when I turn my head wrong it’ll lock up on me. In the past two to three days it hasn’t done it at all. It’s improving. I’m pretty close to getting better.

I’m probably 85 percent.

“I just get in for treatment, getting two to three massages every day helps me out a lot.” l

Cliff’s back issues: Self said Alexander’s back locked, and the big man suffered spasms in Wednesday’s win at Baylor, but that the Chicago native should be able to play today.

“Cliff is a tough kid.

His back locked up Tuesday. He couldn’t practice. He tried to get out there and got locked up the whole game (Wednesday). We were lucky we got the minutes out of him (20) that we did. I thought just his presence and size helped us win the game. It (back locking) has happened to him in the past. It usually takes three to four days to work itself out. I don’t think he’ll have any issues moving forward.

“I’m pleased with Cliff,” Self added. “This is a guy I thought arguably he could be the worst passer we’ve ever had at Kansas when we first got him because he never has (passed) before. He had four assists the other night.

He’s improved in a lot of ways.” l

Graham update: Self said point guard Devonté Graham (sprained right big toe) could possibly play limited minutes today, but a more likely return would be Tuesday vs. Oklahoma State.

“I wouldn’t bank on it (today),” Self said. “He’s probably doubtful, but that could become questionable, but I don’t think it’s probable,” Self added, smiling.

out of bounds or shots affected at the rim.

“A lot of it was their energy,” said LHS coach Mike Lewis, who thought the Lions’ first half was their best defensive performance of the year. “They were just energetic, but they were also smart. We had guys talking and helping each other out.”

The Lions went on a 10-1 spurt midway through the first quarter, with a coast-to-coast layup by Barbee following a steal, a layup-and-thefoul bucket from Brou and six straight points

by Bonner, who finished with a game-high 23 points to go along with five rebounds.

LHS opened the second half with an 11-4 run, led by five points and an assist by Bonner. Later in the third quarter, junior

LAWRENCE HIGH’S TRISTON DECKER competes during the Free State Invitational on Friday at Royal Crest Lanes.

LHS, FSHS bowlers begin

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Lawrence High and Free State’s boys bowling teams both left the FSHS Invitational Friday pleased with their overall performances, but frustrated at the same time after their season-opening tournament at Royal Crest Lanes.

The Lions and Firebirds placed third and fifth, respectively, out of 16 teams in the Bakerformat-style tournament, which was good enough to qualify for the eight-team match-play tournament to end the day. It was a short stay in the match-play bracket for both schools, though, as Topeka West swept FSHS, and Topeka Seaman blanked LHS in the best-of-three-game series.

“I don’t think any of those two schools (Topeka West and Topeka Seaman) had a 250 game in the seven Baker games before this (match play),” said FSHS coach Burton Gepford to LHS coach l all-time against Tech, Paula Bastemeyer after Welcome: Svi Mykhail- including 13-3 while at iuk’s parents were due Kansas.

Anthony Harvey drilled three-pointers on backto-back possessions. The Lions finished 8-for-14 behind the three-point arc, with three from Harvey.

In the fourth quarter, Roberts drained a pair of threes, helping himself to 19 points. Roberts also had four assists and five boards.

“I thought we shared the ball well, and different people stepped up and hit different shots,” Lewis said. “We were solid in our sets, and we had a good flow when we were playing with some freedom and just making plays.

“Offensively, we had good balance and a good flow most of the night.”

When the Lions are clicking on both sides of the ball, they feed off of their own energy and are difficult to slow down.

Against Olathe South, the Lions looked comfortable on offense, taking their time to find the

shots that they wanted and were ready to play suffocating defense.

“This is fun for us,” Harvey said. “Practice, we’re getting at it … tempers are flying. It just gets us a lot better. We’re a great team when it comes to games. It’s just fun coming out in front of our friends and family, and we just want to make everybody have a good time.”

The Lions will go on the road to face Shawnee Mission West at 7 p.m.

FREE STATE’S MATTHEW EAGLE rolls a shot during the FSHS Invitational. the Firebirds and Lions were eliminated.

Lawrence ran into some tough luck right away, having splits on its first four frames of the opening game. Topeka Seaman did not need any help, either, as the Vikings put away the Lions, 205-138, 255-183.

“There was nothing the kids did wrong. It’s just sometimes the 10 pin goes down, and then some-

9 shooting. In the third quarter, Piper nailed three of her five threepointers on the night and got some help from freshman guard Cameryn Thomas, who scored six of her eight points in the quarter.

While Piper, Coversup and Thomas scored 50 of the team’s points, every player on the floor constantly moved the ball to make sure the offense worked.

“We have two very dynamic scorers,” Free State coach Bryan Duncan said. “It’s no secret.

And just as important is we have a very unselfish team. Those two are very unselfish themselves, and … it comes within structure. They don’t try to force things. If anything, we ask Madison to be more aggressive with the ball. So I think the biggest thing is people don’t care who scores.”

After the win, Piper and Coversup saw their

times the 10 pin doesn’t,” Bastemeyer said.

The Firebirds ran into a buzzsaw of their own against Topeka West, falling 232-226, 216-190.

Junior Matthew Eagle helped the Firebirds rally in the first game by rolling a perfect final frame, but Topeka West held off FSHS by picking up a spare on the 10th.

“The boys bowled the best they could during match play,” Gepford said. “They did a really great job. It’s just unfortunate that the other team also had a great game.”

While the match-play section left a sour taste in the Firebirds and Lions’ mouths, there were still plenty of highlights for each team early in the day. LHS freshman Adonis Stanwix bowled the third highest single game of the day with a 266 in the threegame morning session and also took third overall with a 708 series.

Right behind Stanwix in the individual standings was Eagle, who led the Firebirds with a series of 707.

Said Piper: “We go into every game knowing we need to play hard, but at the same time we need to have some fun. Because you can’t just go out there and go through the motions. You need a little fun to get some spark.”

The Firebirds will play at undefeated Leavenworth, No. 1 in Class 5A, on Tuesday.

Free State boys fall

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High girls basketball players were hesitant to shoot and tentative with their passes in the first half against Olathe South on Friday at LHS. By the time they started to settle in, the game was out of reach, and Olathe South was well on its way to an eventual 8034 drubbing at LHS. The Falcons (6-1, ranked No. 3 in Class 6A) opened with a 20-0 lead before LHS junior forward Devon Spoonhunter hit a shot nearly seven minutes in. The Lions struggled to make passes to start their offense and had 10 turnovers in the first quarter.

Meanwhile, Olathe South took full advantage of the Lions’ miscues. The Falcons led 42-4 midway through the second quarter before the Lions (1-6) scored on three straight possessions in the final two minutes of the first

half — a banked three by sophomore Madison McKinney, an offensive rebound and putback by junior Gracie Reinsch and a free throw from Reinsch.

“They hit us with some body blows and some knockout punches early,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “We didn’t attack the way that I think we’re capable of.”

In the first half, the Falcons had no problem finding a forward cutting to the basket for a layup or having a guard drain a three. They shot 8-for-13 from behind the arc, including four from junior Zoe Matje, who finished with a game-high 17 points.

Olathe South also was without star senior Kylee Kopatich, a Kansas University signee who is out because of a torn ACL. But the Lions kept their turnovers down in the second half and looked more competitive, though they trailed by as much as 54.

“We regrouped at halftime, and I think the kids

came out there with the idea of really competing and battling,” Dickson said. “(Olathe South) still stayed kind of hot. But I was much happier with how we did in the second half. I think that says a lot about our kids and how resilient they are.”

Three LHS players scored six points apiece: Spoonhunter, Reinsch and sophomore guard Oliva Lemus, who drained a pair of threes. Sophomore guard Skylar Drum led the Lions with seven rebounds and three steals.

FREE STATE’S HUNTER GUDDE, RIGHT, TRIES TO DRIVE in the Firebirds’ 53-43 loss on Friday at Olathe North.

“We’re gonna be undersized against every single team we play. That’s not even something we really worry about anymore.”

Free State coach Chuck Law admitted his team looked “pretty anemic” on offense, adding the Firebirds missed shots even when they created quality looks. FSHS couldn’t get to the foul line (1-for-2 on the night), either. Law said the Firebirds need easier ways to put points on the scoreboard and they don’t have someone they can throw the ball to on the blocks.

“We’ve gotta come up with some better things for us to do offensively,” the coach said. “Let me rephrase: I have to come up with some better things to do offensively.

We might have to simplify some things and really

RIGHT ON THE CORNER...RIGHT ON THE PRICE!

make sure we’re getting the right guys the ball in position where they can score the ball for us.”

Junior forward R.J. Smith led O-North with 15 points. Josh Moore, a 6-foot-5 post player who has committed to play football for Kansas University, had 11 rebounds and six points.

OLATHE SOUTH JUNIOR KACEY KENNETT, LEFT, PULLS THE BALL AWAY from Lawrence High freshman E’lease Stafford during the first half of their game Friday at LHS.

Olathe — Important as it is, defense will only get you so far sometimes.

Just ask Free State High’s boys basketball team.

The Firebirds, as they often have done this season, harassed their foes and made them earn every basket Friday night at Olathe North.

But when the time came for the Firebirds to score — especially in the fourth quarter, when they went 6-for-16 as the Eagles pulled away at the foul line — they just couldn’t put the ball through the hoop in a 5343 loss to Class 6A’s No. 7-ranked team.

“We’ve just gotta get going offensively,” FSHS senior guard Weston Hack said after leading his team with 14 points. “We don’t have much going for us right now. We’re not hitting shots that we need to be making.”

While O-North shot 17for-37 (45.9 percent), Free State hit just 18 of 47 field goals (38.2 percent) and missed 20 of its 26 threepoint tries.

The Eagles (6-1) and their long wings contested plenty of Free State’s shots from long distance, but they didn’t get to everything.

“We got a lot of open looks,” Hack said. “They just weren’t falling for us tonight.”

FSHS (3-3) only trailed 23-20 at halftime, after limiting O-North to 9-for-24 shooting in the first two quarters. The game slipped away from the perimeteroriented visitors when they only made 10 of their 25 second-half shots and went 2-for-13 on threes.

“I think defensively we’ve been playing fine all year,” Hack said.

MARTHA

DESI Desi was napping when I went to interview her, so basically she said “meeww” and then went back to sleep. She is a cute little Domestic Short Hair with blue and white markings. She also has some lovely black eyeliner markings that make her eyes really stand out. She is 5 years old, so she is past the wake you up in the middle of the night kitten stage. She is ready to go home today.

ROCKY Just when you think you’ve seen almost every mix of breeds, you get to meet Rocky. He is a Basset Hound Border Collie mix.

He is bigger than he looks at almost 53 lbs. His coat is dense and soft with tricolor markings. He will be 3 years old in a few months and he would love to have his birthday party at your house. Something tells me this guy will be a good snuggle pal.

NALA This is Nala’s second time here and she does not remember signing up for this. Sometimes people adopt an animal and then find that they just don’t have the time to commit to their care. She is a sweet Pit Bull Terrier mix and would love to have an active person in her life who can give her the exercise and attention she deserves. She is only 1 year old, so she should be able to keep up with you.

WILLA Willa might appear reserved when you first meet her, but what we have discovered is, she doesn’t care for other cats. Once you go in for the snuggle, she is ready and willing. She is a gorgeous Domestic Medium Hair mix with black red and white markings. Her beauty is best appreciated in person, so you can get the full view. She is 7 years old , so she qualigies for the senior special.

JEB & ROWDY Jed and Rowdy are still waiting for the next chapter in their story to unfold.

These bonded siblings have been at the shelter since October, and could not be any sweeter. With a soft nudge of your hand, Jed will draw you in and with a simple wag of her tail, Rowdy will win your heart. They are 7 year-old Border Collie mixes and need to find a home together. How should their story move ahead? You can help them have a happy ending!

BABE Mama always said “Pretty is as pretty does.” Babe does pretty very well.

She is only 1 year old and tips the scale at around 52 lbs. She is a beautiful fawn and white American Pit Bull Terrier mix and is about the sweetest girl you could meet. She is young and athletic, so she will need a home where she is going to get plenty of exercise. You can even bring her out to play in our yards before and after hours.

HAPPY See this face? This is the face of Happy. He is a 2 month old American Pit Bull Terrier mix and is definitely a puppy. At this point he wouldn’t care if you want to change his name, he just wants to go home.

He has a mostly black coat with a white blaze. He is young and will need some puppy classes, so be sure you’re ready to take on a new puppy.

ADOPT-A-PET Martha may be considered a senior at 7 years, but she is far from needing a place to retire.

She is a Shepherd mix and has a soft white and black coat. She still has lots of giddy up for a gal her age and would be a great dog for someone who loves outdoor activities such as camping and hiking.

She qualifies for our Seniors for Seniors program and for the half price special through January 4th.

MAURICE No matter what we did, Maurice always had his tongue out in all the photos. Guess he prefers the natural look. He is a 6 year old Labrador Retriever mix with an all black coat and weighs in around 51 lbs. If you only have room for one dog, he would be happy to be the one.

He is an active guy, so a good walking buddy would be a good fit for him.

HOBBES Somehow Hobbes made it through the holiday special without being adopted. How does this happen? He is a handsome Domestic Short Hair with orange tiger markings and has a sweet personality to boot.

He does well with other cats and is only 3 years old. He is usually one of the first to greet you when you go into Cat-Topia. Not too big. Not too small. Come give this guy a chance.

MUSKETEER As you can see, Musketeer is a Mastiff mix. At 120 lbs., he is considered extra large. If you have had this breed before, you know that they are big babies and that the drool factor is huge. Because of his size he may be overwhelming to smaller dogs, so we would recommend a meet with other dogs in the home.

He has tan black brindle markings. He will probably need his own couch.

LILY Lily is a big girl at about 61 lbs. She is a gorgeous Boxer mix with black brown brindle markings.

She loves people and does well in a home, but she really needs to be the only animal in the family. In her opinion, she is awesome enough that you shouldn’t need another furry friend anyway. She is 2 years old and has lots of love and attention to offer. She would also like it if you are an active person.

Join us for an EAST SIDE BLUES NIGHT! It will be held Saturday, January 24, 2014

at the CIDER GALLERY at 810 Pennsylvania Lawrence, KS. Featuring the JOSH VOWELL BAND, the proceeds of the evening will benefit the Lawrence Humane Society. Join us for this great cause in an upscale environment. Tickets are on sale in advance or at the door for $10.00.

Doors open at 7:00 to 10:30 p.m. Cash bar.

SLEEPY Sleepy is not one to live up to her name. She is a playful and energetic little girl with tons of love to give. She is a 2 month old American Pit Bull Terrier mix and has a black coat with white on her chest and paws.

She is going to be a good sized adult, so make sure you are able to have this breed and a dog that weighs at least 60 lbs.

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Understand what elder caregivers go through Dear Annie: A couple of times a week, I get a phone call from someone who knows my bedridden 92-year-old mother. They tell me what a wonderful person she is and to keep them “updated,” meaning, I suppose, to tell them when she dies.

Here is what I want to say to the caller: Taking care of an elderly parent at home is exhausting and a tremendous amount of work. The time to pitch in is now. Here is a list of things you can do: 1. If you live close by, offer to spend an afternoon with Mom or send over a meal. Mow the lawn or shovel the driveway. Offer to drive her to the hospital or to a doctor’s appointment the next time she needs to go, and then do it.

2. If you have old items you’re not using

Annie’s Mailbox

(e.g., a toilet or shower chair, a walker or wheelchair, a small table on wheels, a sturdy cafeteria tray or a magnifying glass for reading), ask whether we’d like them.

3. Consider asking whether you can get her medical supplies that insurance doesn’t cover. We need grab bars in the bathroom, waterproof pads for her bed, a box of plastic gloves, even a pack of clean cotton wash-

‘The Missing’ to host new cast, story The eight-part mystery “The Missing” (8 p.m., Starz) concludes with new and possibly conclusive evidence about Oliver’s disappearance.

Starz has announced a second season of “The Missing.” Like the first installment, the overlapping story will take place in two separate years. And like HBO’s “True Detective,” the second season will present an entirely new story with a brand-new cast. “Missing” star James Nesbitt can now be seen in “Babylon” on Sundance.

More than one cable station has dedicated Saturdays to love, romance and just plain sex.

Hallmark finds love between the covers in “A Novel Romance” (8 p.m.). Hiding behind the pompous pseudonym “Gabriel August,” best-selling romance writer Liam Bradley (Dylan Bruce) takes a break to recover from a breakup. Who should he meet but his harshest newspaper reviewer, Sophie Atkinson (Amy Acker)? As you can guess, sparks will fly. But will she still like Liam when she discovers he’s Gabriel August?

Things take on a slightly more mercenary tone in the 2015 drama “Sugar Daddies” (7 p.m., Lifetime) when Kara (Taylor Gildersleeve), a prelaw student saddled with an unpaid internship, finds a friendly older man only too happy to lend a hand with her tuition.

TLC gets right down to the subject with its new talk show “All About Sex” (10 p.m.), featuring frank conversations from Margaret Cho, Heather McDonald, Marissa Jaret Winokur and Dr. Tiffany Davis Henry. It premieres after a night of the network’s sleazy series “Sex Sent Me to the ER” (7 p.m., r, 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.), so don’t go looking for sophisticated chatter.

Tonight’s other highlights

The Seattle Seahawks host the Carolina Panthers in NFL playoff action (7 p.m., Fox).

Hayley Atwell stars in “Marvel’s Agent Carter” (8 p.m., ABC).

Tales of a rural veterinarian on “The Incredible Dr. Pol” (9 p.m., Nat Geo Wild).

The “Adult Swim” (9:30 p.m., Cartoon Network) animated series “Black Dynamite” presents the fantasy special “The Wizard of Watts,” an audacious send-up of “The Wizard of Oz” and a meditation on police brutality in an urban community.

BIRTHDAYS Singer Frank Sinatra Jr. is 71. Singer Rod Stewart is 70.

Boxing Hall of Famer and entrepreneur George Foreman is 66.

Singer Pat Benatar is 62.

cloths and scouring powder.

4. Offer to make calls to find me a good nurse’s aide.

If you want to spend your last days at home, start adapting your place now. Don’t be like my mother, who did nothing and then came home from the hospital suddenly debilitated. Her children had to make all the necessary changes under time pressure and at our own expense, while listening to Mom complain that she wanted everything “back the way it was.” Write a living will and a Do Not Resuscitate order, and keep it where others can find it.

Yes, my mother is a dear, intelligent and wise person. But the reality of dying at home involves much hard work that is usually left

to one of the children, who takes it on alone and without experience. — Exhausted in the Midwest Dear Exhausted: You have made some very pointed suggestions that a great many people will think are too much trouble, but that only underscores how much work you do alone.
