Housing boom may be coming west of SLT Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Plans filed for nearly 2,000 new apartments; single-family homes may follow

W

est Lawrence soon may have a new meaning. Plans have been filed for the first major neighborhood to be built west of the South Lawrence Trafficway, and, if approved, it likely won’t be the last.

Plans have been filed at City Hall for annexation and

rezoning of about 160 acres of property southwest of the new Bob Billings Parkway and South Lawrence Trafficway interchange. The development in the near term could add about 2,000 apartment units, and in future phases could add about 600 single-family homes.

“It is an area that is ideally

situated for residential development, and it is consistent with the community’s plans for the area as well,” said Lawrence attorney Dan Watkins, who is representing the ownership group, which is led by longtime Douglas County landowner Don Hazlett.

The ownership group is seeking rezoning only for the

apartment part of the development currently. A second phase calls for single-family development, which would need to receive separate zoning approvals from the City Commission.

Here’s a look at what is proposed in the first phase: Please see SLT, page 2A

Under the directive announced Friday, the PEAK program could not be used to bring existing jobs from five border counties in Missouri to four counties in Kansas, unless they committed to investing at least $10 million on a new building.

If the North Lawrence Improvement Association and its president, Ted Boyle, were to have their way, homebuilders in North Lawrence would be required to pay for a drainage plan and be more restricted when it comes to the size of their homes.

Now, 10 years after Lawrence adopted codes to allow for residential development on smaller-than-normal lots, the City Commission on Tuesday will be confronted with issues that the association thinks the CITY change has created: COMMISSION adversely affecting the rural atmosphere North Lawrencians covet, and — what’s more — harming the management of stormwater.

Commissioners will also hear potential solutions for relief.

“No other parts of town, no other neighborhood is situated like North Lawrence is,” Boyle said. “We don’t have any hills. It’s water on a flat surface, and it just sits there. Houses are like rocks in a pond; the denser it is, the more prone to flood.

“We will get a change.”

Boyle plans to fight for the city to do away with a zoning category that allows for residential building on 3,000-square-foot lots.

Though city planners have mentioned concerns about the cost to homebuilders, Boyle also wants drainage plans conducted on new developments. And he wants new standards created that would limit how much of the smaller lots could be covered with impervious structures — something city planners are saying may lead to taller, narrower homes, which was “cited as a neighborhood concern.”

Building CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

‘Build on a pinhead’ In 2006, the city created a designation to allow lot sizes of 3,000 and 5,000 square feet — smaller than the then-minimum of 7,000 square feet. The smaller lots were created because they are more compatible with sizes found in original plans for the city, according to a memo from planning staff sent to City Manager Tom Markus on Tuesday.

The memo states they also fixed an “identified need,” and the 5,000-squarefoot lots are “gaining in popularity as an affordable option to accommodate housing in Lawrence,” the memo reads.

City staff thinks — and Boyle agrees — that the 5,000-square-foot lots should remain an option.

According to information provided by the city, there are currently 215 lots that size in North Lawrence, most of which have been developed.

More 5,000-square-foot lots are located in downtown and East Lawrence.

To eliminate the zoning would create nonconforming lots and noncompliant homes, leading

One thing to keep in mind is that the proposed master plan is subject to change. What the landowners really are seeking approval for is to convert two pieces of property from agricultural zoning to multifamily development zoning. One request is for about 53 acres for RM32 zoning, and another is for about 80 acres of RM15 zoning. Both of those zoning designations would allow for a variety of apartment and multifamily development.

Another thing to keep in mind is that this development will take some time. Watkins didn’t have a specific timeline, but he agreed that it would take multiple years to build out the project. But Watkins said he is convinced there is significant demand for new apartments in Lawrence.

“The market for multifamily housing in Lawrence is strong,” Watkins said. “Younger and older people both are trending toward leased property instead of owning it. And the studies we see show the absorption rate of new apartments over the last five years has kept pace

much of the 5,000-squarefoot lots with impervious structures and not leave enough soil to soak up water.

With 7,000-square-foot lots, property owners are allowed to cover 70 percent of the space with impervious materials, such as a home, patio or garage. With 5,000-squarefoot lots, they can cover slightly more, at 75 percent.

Boyle wants that scaled back in North Lawrence specifically, where there are currently 14 to 17 5,000-square-foot lots that haven’t been developed. But city staff said the changes would “likely create nonconforming conditions” and the current codes “appear to accommodate reasonable development.”

Staff went on to say in the memo that the change could lead to taller homes with a smaller footprint, which they say isn’t desired in the neighborhood.

If the City Commission were to agree on changing the requirement, it would have to be done through an amendment to Smaller homes for city code that would alter smaller lots standards throughout the Another concern Boyle city, the memo states.

— and others in North Lawrence — have raised 437 Elm The conversation is codes that allow property owners to cover too about lot sizes was mostly to troubles for potential homebuyers securing loans for properties that don’t meet zoning codes, the memo states.

Though he thinks the 5,000-square-foot lots should be maintained, Boyle wants to do away with designation for the smaller 3,000-squarefoot properties and make sure homes built on the 5,000-square-foot plats don’t take up too much of the area’s green space.

In their information to the City Commission, staff members are not recommending doing away with the 3,000-squarefoot zoning designation.

Currently, the zoning is available, but there are no properties in Lawrence that are zoned that way.

Boyle said the availability allows home builders the opportunity to take one 7,000-squarefoot property and rezone it into two lots — a move that would build density and add to an existing stormwater problem.

“It seems like the city, developers want to build on a pinhead,” Boyle said.

GENERAL MANAGER Scott Stanford, 832-7277, sstanford@ljworld.com Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

A VIEW LOOKING SOUTHEAST SHOWS THE OVERPASS where Bob Billings Parkway meets the South Lawrence Trafficway on Thursday. A residential development is being proposed for the farmland area southwest of the interchange. with construction. Vacancy rates are pretty constant, and rents are rising.”

The issue of how many apartments the city needs is one that comes up at City Hall. I would suspect that it will get some discussion as part of this development request.

Another issue that sometimes comes up at City Hall is the idea of urban sprawl and whether the city can afford to extend infrastructure to new developments on the outer edge of town.

That’s a complicated issue for sure, but sometimes it is overlooked that many of the traditional infrastructure costs are paid for by the private development group.

In general, private developers pay for pretty much all streets, unless they are wide thoroughfares that are more than 31 feet across. In those cases, the developers pay to construct the street to a standard residential size, and the city pays for the portion of costs associated with widening it to a thoroughfare. The same concept applies to waterlines.

The developers pay for waterline construction, unless the waterline is a large main meant to serve a larger role in the city’s overall water distribution system.

Sewer line extensions also are paid for by the private developer. Don’t get me wrong, there are also costs that the city bears when a large new area develops, either directly or indirectly.

But there’s also significant new property tax revenue that comes with such development, especially if the project doesn’t seek any financial incentives from the city.

Watkins said the ownership group doesn’t plan to ask for any special incentives from the city to help pay for the development.

Probably the bigger question to watch for is: What type of growth mindset does the City Commission have these days?

This commission is serving in interesting times. The complete South Lawrence

Trafficway is actually going to open to traffic this year. It is a more than $190 million investment in infrastructure by the state, and, not surprisingly, it has created development pressure along the SLT. Simply put, we’re in a period where the iron is hot, and some developers are looking to strike.

As we have reported, this City Commission already has turned down one major project that wanted to jump the South Lawrence Trafficway. That was a retail project that wanted to go south of the SLT at the Iowa Street interchange. The city is getting sued over that denial.

What will this commission think about going west of the trafficway? The idea certainly shouldn’t catch anybody by surprise. The school district already owns land in the area that was bought for a future school site. The city has a planning document called the “West of K-10 Plan” that envisions this property developing with a mix of high density and medium density residential uses.

And there is another important fact about this property: Unlike the area near Rock Chalk Park at Sixth and the SLT, this property is largely flat and is in the Lawrence school district. That last reason has caused many in the development industry to speculate that this area will be the one that will really take off as the next new major housing area for Lawrence.

The question now seems to be how soon that will happen. City commissioners are getting closer to answering that question.

Look for this development to go to the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission in June or July and to the City Commission at some point after that.

prompted by a home recently built at 437 Elm St. The long, tall home is nestled between two other homes, one of which — belonging to Dale and Donna Sanders — has experienced foundation problems because of water runoff, Donna Sanders has said.

The city’s recent memo provides more information on the property. It was built on a 2,750-squarefoot lot — smaller than the minimum the city allows.

The memo states it was permitted because the lot was created before current zoning codes were in place.

Further, the home doesn’t surpass the limit of 75 percent of its property being taken up with impervious structures, according to the memo.

Boyle has said he thinks that’s not correct.

Much of North Lawrence has previously been designated as within a floodplain. The city agreed in September to spend $5.9 million on construction of a new stormwater pump station to serve the neighborhood.

“It will help to highlight potential localized drainage problems and would require a builder to consider from the beginning of a project how they will provide for stormwater runoff… instead of leaving the impacts of stormwater runoff as an afterthought,” the city memo states.

Planning staff noted the stormwater assessment would cost builders anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000 to have an engineer create the plan.

“But $1,500 to $3,000 is worth it to keep from stormwater flooding the area and your neighbors,” Boyle said. “It’s $1,500 to $3,000 to the expense of the house or $7 (million) to $10 million for another pump down the road.”

City commissioners will discuss the issue Tuesday at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St. Their meeting starts at 5:45 p.m.

More money, more plans Both the North Lawrence Improvement Association and Matt Bond, the city stormwater engineer, are supporting a plan that would require home builders on 3,000and 5,000-square-foot lots in North Lawrence to submit a plan with their residential building permits showing how stormwater would be drained.

VOLUNTEER CHRIS BANDLE USES A MITER SAW TO CUT LENGTHS OF WOOD for an archery platform for campers on April 9 at Lawrence Hidden Valley Camp, 3420 Bob Billings Parkway. In back is her husband, Jeff Bandle. Chris Bandle says she has been involved with Hidden Valley Camp for about 15 years.

By Micki Chestnut

Special to the Journal-World

For Cris Bandle, Hidden Valley Camp is a tree-filled classroom on the corner of Bob Billings Parkway and Kasold Drive where girls can surround themselves with nature and learn some of life’s most important lessons: How to face your fears, solve problems, work with others and become self-sufficient.

If that seems like a tall claim to make for a few summer days spent

learning how to start a campfire despite the wind, tie knots that really hold and brave sleeping out under the stars, Bandle has seen for herself that big life skills grow from seeds like these.

Bandle, who has volunteered with Girl Scouts since 1997, grew up in a DIY family that wasn’t afraid to take on big challenges, such as building their own house. In this real-life laboratory she discovered how to analyze problems and figure out solutions, then develop the

skills and self-confidence she needed to get the job done, whether it was helping run electrical wire or laying insulation.

She’s nifty with a drill and other power tools, but one of the best skills Bandle gained from her upbringing, the one she works to impart to the girls she works with through scouting, is self-sufficiency.

SATURDAY COLUMN

U.S. needs more quality candidates for public office

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

The United States is a great country, a world leader in most every category. Critics can point to specific areas where some country may challenge the excellence or leadership of Uncle Sam, but, overall, the U.S. is the best.

Americans have more freedoms, more opportunities, excellent health care and great universities and research centers.

The nation enjoys tremendous generosity by its private citizens and can offer fiscal and technical assistance to other countries in times of need. It has a superb military and is a force for freedom throughout the world.

Sure, the U.S. has problems, challenges and strong differences of opinion among its citizens, but it is, indeed, the shining star in the eyes of millions of people living in other parts of the world.

With such a history of leadership and excellence, why is it, in this country of more than 300 million, it seems to be increasingly difficult to encourage good, honest, talented, properly motivated and knowledgeable individuals to be candidates for public office at the local, state or national levels?

These days, this question seems to be raised relative to the four top individuals seeking the U.S. presidency, the world’s most powerful elective office. However, the same question can be asked relative to city commissioners, county commissions, boards of education, mayors, state legislators and governors, and members of the U.S. House and Senate.

Are today’s candidates for the presidency the best this country can offer? l A flawed former U.S. senator and secretary of state, a political insider for 30 years, a very wealthy individual who is identified in public polls as being a liar and untrustworthy. l A U.S. senator from Vermont, a long-time political insider running for the presidency on a socialist platform. l A first-term U.S. senator from Texas, a legal scholar with few friends or supporters among his Senate colleagues, a super conservative and a gifted debater. l A business entrepreneur who has had many successes, as well as failures, who is untested in public office, is self-funding his primary election efforts and has a style and manner that

generates strong support, as well as strong dislike.

Are these four candidates the best this country has to offer for the world’s most powerful elected leader? Are they the most qualified, the most respected, most honest, most knowledgeable and best leaders this country has to offer?

A fifth candidate, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a former U.S. House member, who once was considered a long shot, might end up as the GOP’s nominee.

So far, he has been able to dodge personal attacks on his character or record as an officeholder.

COMMENTARY This writer recently asked a highly respected and successful news executive why more talented and able individuals do not seek public office, specifically the presidency and congressional seats.

His answer: “Technology, which has transformed our lives, made government people less relevant because they no longer have more information than average citizens who now can

Visiting Nurses and 105.9 KISS FM Present

get all the information they need or want on their iPhones.

“The result is that fewer people of stature see politics now as a worthwhile profession, which leads to superficial people and debates with mainly name calling, and our two major political parties with little or no influence. And, there is an underlying tide for change in America that our media and most politicians have missed. Establishment and elites talk mainly with people like themselves, while the public moves elsewhere.

“The present day media has now built its business almost entirely on personalities, especially show business people to sell their products in print, on TV and to attract notice on Facebook and the Internet, etc., etc.

“The problem is, none of these media people and politicians know anything about the thoughts and desires of ordinary Americans, and none of them have access to or a desire to pay for the expensive, time-consuming research required to understand American politics today.

“Even the media conveyors of political news themselves are now nothing more than show business-type personalities talking from a script they are handed

and who are without any idea of what they are talking about.”

Closing his analysis of the current political scene and why so few talented individuals, men and women who could add so much to government and the betterment of our country, choose to enter politics, he said, “Our only hope is that our brilliant American political system is still, as usual, more important than the political players and that, in the end, ‘the Republic will stand.’”

This thoughtful response should merit the attention of those in the media. There also is the matter of why a talented and able individual would decide to run for a high public office when the media will expose every facet of the person’s life, good and bad, and the family loses any vestige of privacy. Can the desire to be a good citizen and offer public service override the negatives of a highly publicized and costly campaign?

Something needs to be done to encourage more properly motivated and honest men and women to make the sacrifice of serving in public office. The future of our country, to a large degree, depends on the quality of those serving in public offices.

Is compromise a thing of the past?

University newspaper lawsuit continues Heard on T the Hill

Ryan Shea, clerk, Lawrence “Probably anything that’s not incredibly uncomfortable.”

Sara Shepherd

University’s official budget ... In recent years the university administration has unilaterally increased the mandatory student activity fee to fund KU athletics.

Defendants had the opportunity to do the same here to avoid a constitutional violation.”

Since the lawsuit was filed, the Senate voted on required student fee allotments for the 2016-2017 school year — including keeping the Kansan’s allotment at $45,000 for the year instead of restoring it to what it was two years ago. (I’ve been checking with KU on this, but at last word the chancellor had yet to formally approve or veto the new fee package.)

The Kansan’s April

8 motion comments on that: “Without intervention ... the chilling effect on the Kansan’s newsroom will continue.

Since this lawsuit was filed, this threat has moved closer to reality.

The Kansan stands to suffer further retaliation because the proposed upcoming budget keeps the Kansan’s funding at only one-half of the previous amount.”

Literacy kits help kindergartners prepare for first day of school

Another fire the afternoon of March 22 caused significant damage at Orchard Corners Apartments.

Just after noon, a fire was reported on the balcony of a third-floor apartment at 1403 Apple Lane, near the intersection of Kasold Drive and Bob Billings Parkway.

The bulk of the fire was extinguished within 10 minutes, but firefighters remained on scene for hours afterward checking to ensure the flames were all out.

No injuries were reported in the fire.

skills kindergarten teachers said they wanted children to practice before they arrive at school in August. Jan Brummell, former executive director of the Douglas County Child Development Association, and Stephanie Struble, who taught at Kids First Preschool for two decades, designed the kits as part of United Way’s education goal, to ensure Douglas County children enter school ready to learn.

“Kindergarten can be a scary thing or an exciting thing. There is a lot of anxiety for a child and their parents going in. If they can have anything that makes them feel comfortable that first day, that’s an asset,” Brummell said. “The kids will be a little more ready to start learning. It helps everybody, the students and the teachers. It makes the first day more positive

and helps kids acclimate to the school environment.”

As parents and children enjoy the learning games and activities in the literacy kits, the children will get a better idea of what to expect in kindergarten, and their parents will have a chance to engage in their children’s learning, a pattern that research shows can positively affect their child’s academic success.

“Teachers aren’t able to send home anything at kindergarten roundup, so they are thrilled to have these literacy kits for the kids to take home,” Struble said.

Creating the 90 literacy kits for the two elementary schools has been “a really big collaborative effort between the United Way, schools and volunteers,” Struble said. Employees at Hallmark Cards, the Bioscience Technology

Business Center, Big Heart Pet Brands and Protection 1 Security System volunteered to assemble the kits, which took about an hour each. Funds to purchase a copy of “Chicka Chick Boom Boom” for each student and kit supplies were donated by Briggs Auto Group and other donors, and Signs of Life offered the books at a discount.

“The money and time put into making these kits takes a load off our staff and the parents as well. We are so grateful,” said Kristi Hill, principal of Pinckney Elementary School and daughter of Roger Hill, for whom the United Way Roger Hill Volunteer Center was named. “By having the literacy kits to give to parents to take home, we hope that they will work with their child, so we can hit the ground running

from the very first day of school.”

“With United Way having the goal of education, and to help kids be ready to learn in kindergarten, it’s such a wonderful fit,” Brummel said. “It not only brings this tool to schools and parents, it also brings the community into the goal because the people in the companies who are putting together the kits will see that we really all need to help these kids be ready for school. We want the community as a whole to see the need to support young children.”

The roundup at Pinckney is scheduled for Monday, and the roundup for Woodlawn is scheduled for April 28.

newspaper that she didn’t write the letter, and that she has recused herself from hearing the current school finance case. Early next month, the high court is to review the Legislature’s response to its February ruling that school funding is inequitable between districts.

Four of the five justices up for retention in the November election have corporations registered with the Kansas Secretary of State linked to their bids to retain their seats.

Carol Williams, the Kansas Ethics Commission’s chief, said the corporations aren’t required to disclose donors under Kansas law. Beier has asked to not be told who has donated, her group’s fundraising letter says.

“In my experience, this is an extremely good supreme court,” Mikel Stout, who describes himself as the Beier group’s treasurer and who signed the fundraising letter, told the newspaper. “And to start attacking it on what

I think are inappropriate grounds is offensive to me. I don’t get involved in this sort of thing very often, but this isn’t right.”

After the February school finance ruling, House Speaker Ray Merrick said the court “has once again demonstrated no misgivings on interjecting itself in legislative proceedings and holding Kansas taxpayers and Kansas school children hostage.”

“Kansans deserve better, and that is the

consideration we will make going forward,” Merrick added.

Sen. Jeff King, an Independence Republican who heads the senate’s Judiciary Committee, said justices should avoid the appearance of impropriety.

“I think it’s better that a fundraiser treasurer said it than the justice herself,” he said. “But when we’re dealing with judicial elections, the appearance of impartiality matters.”

But no matter what kind of volunteer activity she’s engaged in, from canoeing and camping with a group of older scouts through the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Superior National Forest to teaching

day campers how to cook over a campfire at Hidden Valley Camp, her goals are the same. She wants to give girls a safe place to try something difficult and new, encourage them to stick with the task even if it becomes frustrating, and help them discover they are braver, more powerful and skilled than they ever dreamed.

These early life lessons learned outdoors become

life game-changers for girls, Bandle said. For example, a little girl who doesn’t give up when trying to master a complicated knot develops resiliency and determination, and can grow into the adult who solves a complex challenge at work, she explained.

“All those things through Girl Scouts start at such a basic level. It gives them all the little

experiences of trying new things, and they build on it,” Bandle shared. “They feel so much more confident in themselves as leaders. They are willing to try new things because they stepped out of their comfort zones, and they succeeded.”

The studies found that bacteria live longer on our shoes than on anything else, and in most cases, the bacteria was transferred to both tile floors and especially carpeting. There are more bacteria on shoes than on toilet seats, including E coli. This is especially dangerous for children under the age of 2, because they play on the floor and frequently

A compelling historical film on HBO Is “Confirmation” (8 p.m., HBO) good history? That’s for another columnist. It is clearly a compelling television movie, featuring a great cast. Who better to play law professor Anita Hill, the woman at the center of the Clarence Thomas (Wendell Pierce) confirmation scandal, than Kerry Washington, the star of “Scandal”?

“Confirmation” is far removed from “Scandal” and the world of Shonda Rhimes’ soap operas, where the freaky is all but expected.

And that’s w h a t makes it so powerful.

Hill’s allegations of sexual harassment, offered before televised Senate committee hearings in 1991, were genuinely outrageous in their kinky detail. Occurring at the dawn of so-called “tabloid television” and talk radio, the Thomas hearings offered a Rorschach test for society. To some, it was as if the world of trashy paperbacks and video pornography had invaded the august Senate chambers. To others, it was a liberating moment when details of male sexual harassment, experienced by countless powerless female employees, were aired in the most brazen manner in a public setting.

Washington emphasizes Hill’s sense of vulnerability and well-founded fears. Pierce plays Thomas’ silent slow burn to perfection. As a deeply conflicted Sen. Joe Biden, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Greg Kinnear often steals the movie.

Biden conducts the excruciating hearings with an aching tooth. He is torn between his desire to maintain the dignity of the Senate and his desire to give Thomas and his accuser a fair hearing. In the end he appears to be defending an “old boys club,” and is continually out-maneuvered.

In the movie, and in history, nobody emerged from this ordeal unscathed. The film’s characters may have clear points of view, but “Confirmation” never takes an obvious side. As the end credits roll, the real Anita Hill is seen saying she thinks she did the right thing in 1991.

It’s rather fitting that the real Clarence Thomas is not heard from. He has spent much of his tenure as a sad and sullen figure, maintaining silence on the court for decades at a stretch.

Tonight’s other highlights O A young woman’s terrible choice in boyfriends is only the beginning of the 2016 shocker “Dying to Be Loved” (7 p.m., Lifetime).

Gates assesses Obama foreign policy Washington — Bob Gates has unusual standing in the debate about the Obama administration’s foreign policy: He was defense secretary both for a hawkish President George W. Bush and then a wary President Obama. He understood Bush’s desire to project power and Obama’s skepticism.

Gates characteristically finds a middle ground in the argument that has been swirling since Jeffrey Goldberg’s Atlantic magazine article examining Obama’s reluctance to use military force in Syria and the broader Middle East. Borrowing the famous quip about Richard Wagner’s music, Gates said Obama’s foreign policy “is not as bad as it sounds. It’s the way it comes out that diminishes its effectiveness.”

“The way things get done communicates reluctance to assert American power,” Gates explained in an interview Wednesday. “They often end up in the right place, but a day late and a dollar short.

The decisions are made seriatim. It presents an image that he’s being dragged kicking and screaming to each new stage, and it dilutes the implementation of what he’s done.”

Gates criticized the current National Security Council’s implementation of policy, arguing that “micromanagement” by a very large NSC staff undercut Obama’s efforts to use power against the Islamic State or contain China in the South China Sea. “It becomes so incremental

that the message is lost. It makes them look reluctant,” he said.

Gates’ criticism of the NSC is noteworthy because he served as deputy to national security adviser Brent Scowcroft in President George H.W. Bush’s NSC, which Obama has cited as a model for how policy should be managed. By that standard, Gates implied, the current NSC team, led by Susan Rice, needs to lift its game.

Gates credited Obama for moving toward better-calibrated policies that would send a stronger message, such as greater use of Special Operations Forces on the ground in Syria and Iraq, and more aggressive moves to assert freedom of navigation in the

Pacific. “You don’t need major threats or force projection but a clearer desire to show we can act with force” when necessary, he said.

Gates’ comments come as Obama is about to travel to Europe and the Middle East to meet with allies who have become increasingly critical of his policies. His tone was more that of a feisty, frustrated uncle than a bitter foe. Gates said he still talks to Obama occasionally, but he declined to elaborate.

The interview with Gates followed a speech he gave the previous night in which he parsed the long-standing dispute over whether “realism” or “idealism” should govern American foreign policy. A wise strategy has a measure of both, Gates told the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

“It is neither hypocrisy nor cynicism to believe fervently in freedom while adopting different approaches to advancing freedom at different times along the way — including temporarily making common cause with despots to defeat greater or more urgent threats,” he said in his speech.

Gates offered examples of the realpolitik he practiced as a CIA director and NSC official.

He said CIA covert action was very useful in the later years of the Cold War — for example, by smuggling into Russia hundreds of thousands of copies of “The Gulag Archipelago” by dissident writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

As the Cold War end game approached in 1989, Gates recalled, he commissioned a special NSC group to begin contingency planning for the collapse of the Soviet Union. That study convinced policymakers that a strong central government in Moscow would be needed after the fall of communism to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons.

Gates argued that similar strategic clarity is needed now in dealing with the Islamic State.

The administration needs to decide its “desired end state” in Iraq and Syria and then drive policy toward that goal: “Are we still proponents of a unitary Iraqi state or something more federal?

Do we want an integral state in Syria, or do we send everyone back to their home base? ... We don’t know what we want.”

As an example of visionary leadership, Gates cited President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s move in 1944, when World War II was still raging, to begin planning within the U.S. government for the institutions of the postwar world, such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the United Nations.

Gates offered a last piece of advice: Because of perceptions that Obama has been reluctant to use power, “some new president could come in without a deft touch and overreact, to reduce this impression. ... My worry is that the next president will overcorrect.”

Rein in CO2

School solutions?

To the editor: I love springtime in Lawrence and celebrating Earth Day at South Park on April 23. Nature has not been in such a celebratory mood of late as the last two years have been the hottest on record worldwide. New studies show calamitous sea level rise may only be decades away. The stable climate we have enjoyed for the last 10,000 years enabling the rise of the agriculture we enjoy in Kansas is also at risk.

The world took a major step forward with the Paris agreement last December. Nations will formally sign the accord at the United Nations on Earth Day, April 22. But the U.S. commitment to lower greenhouse gas emissions is in jeopardy because of the Supreme Court’s decision to delay implementation of the Clean Power Plan. The court’s action is a reminder that we need a solution to climate change that is more resilient and permanent than executive actions that can be undone by the next president.

Congress needs to pass legislation putting a steadily rising fee on carbon, and returning revenue to households.

This approach can cut emissions in half within 20 years while adding millions of jobs to the economy according to the REMI study. This is a solution U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins and Sens.

Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts can easily support as a no-risk insurance policy. We celebrate the Earth each year for providing us with sustenance and beauty. It’s time to express our gratitude by taking steps to rein in C02 that is changing Earth’s climate.

Tony Schmidt, Lawrence

To the editor: I congratulate Lawrence School Board Vice President Marcel Harmon on his newfound national fame for his commentary on the state of Kansas schools. While I do not doubt his commitment to protecting the status quo in education, Harmon provides zero solutions.

He attacks any organization or individual that ventures to suggest alternatives or improvements to the system that has produced the very problems Harmon frequently decries. More troublesome is the disrespect he shows for educators, parents and children who participate in private or parochial schools. One would expect a chief education official of Lawrence schools to be supportive of student learning wherever it may occur, whether public or private.

Which raises a question, is Harmon’s perennial tirade a product of concern for students, or is it a concern, or fear, of competition? It is a question worthy of an honest answer. The Lawrence school system has suffered during Harmon’s and others’ tenure. Over the last decade, while per-pupil spending increased 33 percent, the graduation rate has fallen from 93 percent to 84 percent.

If more money resulted in lower graduation rates, maybe the real problem lies elsewhere. Mr. Harmon, other than rhetoric, what solution do you offer?

Dustin Morris, Lawrence

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for April 16, 1916: “Theodore Pine telephoned to the Journal-World today that reports years are circulating in Grant township ago that lights placed at night to give IN 1916 warnings of danger at the places now in process of repair are not left there through the night, to the consequent inconvenience of traffic. Mr. Pine said that A. A. Hicks had placed lanterns nightly on a stretch of road near the Pine farm, but that a few nights

ago a motor car from Lawrence was stalled in the road because the lights were not there when it came along. The report continues that a team was mysteriously at hand to haul out the stalled auto for a consideration.... Mr. Pine said that to his certain knowledge the lights were properly placed at night. The assertion is made that they are moved by unauthorized persons, and the theory is advanced that the consequent revenue from the hauling out motor cars that get stuck in the road supplies a motive for removing the lanterns.”

Women combat officers’ milestone Army: 22 are near end of training for armor, infantry Jim Michaels @jimmichaels USA TODAY

The Army announced Friday the first 22 women to be commissioned as infantry and armor officers under new rules that open all ground combat jobs to females this year.

The move is a major step toward integrating women into socalled ground combat jobs, placing them in leadership roles in occupations that were never open to them.

The 22 women are near completion of their officer training and will be commissioned as second lieutenants in coming weeks.

They need to successfully complete the specialty schools and meet the physical requirements before fully qualifying in the fields.

The military had expected only a small number of women to volunteer for the jobs, at least initially. The Marine Corps said about 200 women a year would likely join newly opened ground combat positions, including the infantry.

The latest Army numbers seem to reflect that forecast, though the numbers could grow as more women enter the fields and pave the way for others.

ON THIRD ANNIVERSARY,

BOSTON REMEMBERS Boston Marathon bombing survivor Jeff Bauman, center, walks over the marathon finish line Friday on the third anniversary of the bombings. The twin bombings killed three people and wounded more than 260. The city is remembering the victims and survivors by paying it forward on April 15, now One Boston Day. One of the bombers, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was sentenced to death last June. His brother, Tamerlan, died in a gunfight with police in the days after the attack.

Apple dismisses latest DOJ request to extract iPhone data Jon Swartz @jswartz USA TODAY

NEW YORK Apple is saying no to the government again.

In a filing in federal court late Friday, the computer maker said federal law enforcement officials have not exhausted means to extract data from an iPhone in a New York criminal case.

The refusal follows the Department of Justice’s one-page letter filed last week in New York federal court seeking Apple’s help in “accessing the data” on an iPhone linked to a convicted methamphetamine trafficker in Brooklyn.

“As a preliminary matter, the government has utterly failed to satisfy its burden to demonstrate that Apple’s assistance in this case is necessary,” Apple said in

its 45-page filing.

“The government has made no showing that it has exhausted alternative means for extracting data from the iPhone at issue here.”

The Brooklyn federal court case focuses on Jun Feng, a Queens, N.Y., defendant who pleaded guilty in October to a methamphetamine conspiracy.

Authorities indicated they sought access to his iPhone 5 in a bid to investigate other aspects of the alleged plot, including whether others, not yet known to the government, may have been involved.

The Justice Department has argued Apple is only refusing because the situation has been made public.

“Apple expressly agreed to asv STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Spanish official out; ‘Panama Papers’ linked to tax haven Doug Stanglin @dstanglin USA TODAY

The “Panama Papers” scandal has claimed another victim — Spain’s minister of Industry, Trade and Tourism resigned over charges of ties to a company in an offshore tax haven.

Interim minister Jose Manuel Soria denied any wrongdoing but said he was stepping down to limit any damage to acting Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy’s caretaker government, the People’s Party, which likely faces elections in June, Reuters

“No one who has operated in tax havens may be in the government.”

Cristobal Montoro, Spain’s finance minister, quoted in ‘El Mundo’

reported.

“All political activity should be exemplary, including when it comes to providing explanations,” he said in an emailed statement Friday, Spanish newspaper El Mundo reported.

“When that is not the case, you

have to take responsibility accordingly.”

The government quickly accepted the resignation. “No one who has operated in tax havens may be in the government,” Finance Minister Cristobal Montoro said, the newspaper reported.

The resignation comes 10 days after Iceland’s prime minister, Sigmundur Gunnlaugsson, stepped aside following revelations stemming from the “Panama Papers” investigations that his family sheltered money offshore.

The investigations were triggered by the leak of millions of

documents from the Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca, which has been the conduit for numerous offshore accounts set up by government officials, celebrities, sports figures and wealthy individuals worldwide.

The leak, initially to the German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung, quickly spread to an international consortium of newspapers, including El Mundo.

Soria initially denied the allegations but backtracked after additional information surfaced, including a copy of a document signed by him with a financial services company in Jersey, an island off the coast of France.

BELGIAN TRANSPORT MINISTER OUT; U.K. ARRESTS FIVE TERROR SUSPECTS Confidential EU report found airport safety checks lacking

program up to date, such as regarding the use of explosive-detecting dogs, the Financial Times reported.

Jane Onyanga-Omara

“There was no risk to the public ... and there is no information to suggest an attack in the U.K. was being planned.”

USA TODAY

Belgian Transport Minister Jacqueline Galant has resigned after a European Union report criticized Belgian airport security.

Meanwhile, police in England said that five people from the central city of Birmingham were arrested on suspicion of involvement “in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.”

Three men and a woman were arrested in Birmingham on Thursday night and a man was arrested at Gatwick Airport, near London, early Friday, the West Midlands police force said in a statement.

Assistant Chief Constable Marcus Beale, of West Midlands Police, said the arrests were part of an “extensive investigation” by the British security officials and international partners including Belgian and French authorities, LONDON

LAURENT DUBRULE, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Jacqueline Galant resigned after a critical report was leaked. “to address any associated threat to the U.K. following the attacks in Europe.”

“The arrests were pre-planned and intelligence-led,” Beale said.

“There was no risk to the public at any time and there is no information to suggest an attack in the U.K. was being planned.”

Galant’s resignation came after a European Union report was leaked in the wake of the terror attacks at Brussels Airport and at

a metro station that killed 32 people in the nation’s capital on March 22. Sixteen were killed at the airport.

The confidential EU report from April 2015, which was was made public by two Belgian opposition parties, said there were serious deficiencies in the way safety checks are managed at Belgian airports. They included a failure to keep parts of Belgium’s national civil aviation security

Prime Minister Charles Michel told reporters Friday that Galant “presented her resignation to the King and the King accepted it.”

Galant had said she had not seen the report, but Michel said “a summary of this report was discussed and sent to the minister’s cabinet in June 2015,” the Associated Press reported. Michel said he would name a replacement for Galant as soon as possible.

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the Brussels attacks, as well as the attacks in Paris in November that killed 130 people.

New York iPhone case could be litmus test v CONTINUED FROM 1B

sist the government in accessing the data on this iPhone — as it has at least 70 times before in similar circumstances — and only changed course when the government’s application for assistance was made public by the court,” Justice Department spokeswoman Emily Pierce said in a statement. “Indeed, Apple has said it would take them only a few hours to open this kind of phone, because they already have mechanism that would allow them to do so.”

A dispute between the U.S. government and Apple over how far it should go in helping authorities circumvent built-in security features on its devices has shifted to the New York iPhone case, after the government dropped a similar legal challenge in California.

Some argue the New York drug case could become a litmus test for hundreds of other cases law enforcement officials are pursuing against Apple and other smartphone makers over device encryption.

In the more high-profile California case, Apple fought the DOJ in court and in the public eye as it tried to refuse the FBI’s request to override its own passcode software.

The U.S. government dropped the case last month after the FBI said it was able to view the contents of an iPhone used by San Bernardino terrorist Syed Farook with help of an undisclosed outside party.

Enthusiastic crowd welcomes Democratic presidential hopeful Eric J. Lyman

Special for USA TODAY VATICAN CITY Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders took a break from campaigning Friday to travel to the Vatican and issue a scathing attack on the abuses of capitalism. He also greeted small, enthusiastic crowds of both U.S. expats and Italians here.

Sanders quoted Pope Leo XIII, referring to the “enormous wealth of a few as opposed to the poverty of the many,” speaking as an invitee at a special conference called “The Urgency of a Moral Economy” held at the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.

Sanders said the situation had only worsened since Pope Leo XIII died 113 years ago.

“At a time when so few have so much and so many have so little, we should reject the foundations of this contemporary economy as immoral and unsustainable,” said Sanders, who left for Rome on a charted Delta flight just hours after debating rival Hillary Clinton ahead of Tuesday’s Democratic party primary in New York.

Bolivian President Evo Morales and Ecuador’s Rafael Correa were also among those speaking at the conference. Pope Francis did not attend, and the Vatican ruled out Sanders being granted a formal audience with the pontiff.

But there was still speculation the two men might meet informally, particularly if Sanders stays overnight or rests before his return flight in the Casa Santa Maria, where Francis lives.

Brazil’s Supreme Court won’t block the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff, who took office in 2011.

Impeachment process underway in Brazil after high court ruling Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

After Brazil’s Supreme Court rejected an attempt by President Dilma Rousseff to block a vote in Congress’ lower house to impeach her, the lower house began the debate Friday.

The vote is expected for Sunday on whether to send the measure to the Senate, where the impeach-

ment trial would take place, The Associated Press reported.

Jose Eduardo Cardozo, Rousseff’s attorney general, had asked the court for an injunction to suspend Sunday’s vote until the full court can rule on what he described as procedural flaws in the impeachment process, Reuters reported.

The Supreme Court dismissed the motion 8-2 in an extraordinary session that lasted for more

than seven hours.

Rousseff has been accused of using money from public banks to fill budget holes. She has denied any wrongdoing.

For impeachment, 342 votes are needed to send proceedings to the Senate for a potential trial, the AP reported. If the Senate decided to move forward, Rousseff would need to step down until the measure was voted on, according to the AP.

Women can serve as role models v CONTINUED FROM 1B

“Incrementally over time, it’s been one success after another,” Lt. Col. Jerry Pionk, an Army spokesman, said recently about overall efforts to expand opportunities for women in the armed services.

The 22 women are in West Point or ROTC and will be commissioned as officers when they graduate. Thirteen will enter the armor field and nine will join infantry.

Having female leaders in jobs such as the infantry is important, since they can serve as role models for enlisted women who may elect to join the infantry or other ground combat jobs. Newly commissioned lieutenants in the infantry generally serve as platoon leaders in charge of units of about 40 troops.

It is not clear how many enlisted women will be interested in joining the infantry. One Army enlisted recruit has so far signed a contract to enter the infantry, the Army said. The Marine Corps has said it received one request for a transfer to the infantry from

Capt. Kristen Griest, one of the first women to complete the U.S. Army’s Ranger School, salutes during her 2015 graduation. an enlisted Marine.

Women have served extensively in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan. But until now they had been prohibited from so-called ground combat fields, which include infantry, armor and Special Forces.

Ground combat jobs require strength and endurance and often involve living in austere com-

bat conditions for long periods.

In the infantry, troops are required to wear heavy body armor and packs that can weigh more than 100 pounds and are required to hike long distances with their gear.

Three years ago the Pentagon ordered all jobs to be open to women by the beginning of this

year. During that time, the military services studied physical standards and developed genderneutral physical tests used to screen applicants.

The Marine Corps, an infantry-centered force that serves long deployments aboard ships, requested an exception for infantry, citing a study that showed infantry units with women did not perform as well as all-male units.

Defense Secretary Ashton Carter denied the Marine request this year, saying there would be no exceptions. The Marines pledged to successfully implement the order.

Carter said standards would not decline as a result of allowing women to enter the ground combat jobs.

Those standards are tough. No woman has yet completed the Marine Corps’ rigorous Infantry Officer Course, although 29 women have tried. Three women have graduated from the Army’s Ranger School, a physically demanding small unit leaders’ course, since they opened it up to women for the first time last year.

Both Sanders and Pope Francis are vocal critics of economic inequality: One social media meme circulating in recent days listed a series of statements on the topic and challenged readers to guess which of the two men made the statement.

The small American community in Rome was enthusiastic about the visit. Sanders beat Clinton by more than a 2-to-1 margin in Italy during the March 1 Democrats Abroad primary, and a few dozen were at the Vatican to voice support for Sanders. The Twitter hashtag #RomeIsBerning was trending Friday in Italy.

“Pope Francis and Bernie Sanders are the two strongest voices challenging the world’s broken economic system,” said Cindy Sanders, a 44-year-old Cincinnati native who helps run semester-abroad programs in Rome.

David Acker, a 23-year-old New Yorker spending time in Italy, agreed: “I already voted for Bernie in the New York primary as an absentee voter, and I’m very happy to have a reason to wear my ‘Bernie 2016’ T-shirt here.”

Sanders’ trip was criticized in some circles in the U.S. as opportunistic. It is unusual for a candidate to leave the country in the heat of campaign season, but Sanders said he could not pass up an invitation to the conference.

Ex-‘Apprentice’ contestants fire back at Trump candidacy David M. Jackson USA TODAY

Former contestants on the show that made Donald Trump a TV star — The Apprentice — are denouncing their former patron as he pursues the presidency.

Randal Pinkett, who won The Apprentice in Season 4, said while he and other contestants “acknowledge Donald’s success as a businessman,” they also “strongly

condemn Donald’s campaign of sexism, xenophobia, racism, violence and hate.”

Pinkett and five other former Apprentice players appeared at a news conference Friday in New York City, and all denounced Trump’s campaign tactics.

“What ‘makes America great’ is a unified commitment to inclusion,” said Marshawn Evans Daniels, a Season 4 contestant.

“Trump is passionately and strategically reigniting a dirty and di-

visive culture soaked in a history of prejudice, fear and hate.”

Tara Dowdell, a Season 3 contestant, said of Trump: “It would be irresponsible for us not to condemn his hateful rhetoric given its real world implications, particularly the racial resentment and accompanying violence that we have seen at his rallies.”

It should be noted: Many other former Apprentice contestants have endorsed Trump and spoken at his rallies.

FACT CHECK THE BROOKLYN DEM DEBATE Eugene Kiely, Brooks Jackson, Robert Farley, Lori Robertson and D’Angelo Gore l FactCheck.org

T

he two Democratic presidential candidates debated in Brooklyn, days ahead of the New York April 19 primary. CNN hosted the debate. False and misleading claims by former secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders included: uClinton implied she has supported a $15 federal minimum wage, as Sanders has. But her own website says she supports a $12 federal minimum wage and going further “through state and local efforts.” uSanders said “43 lobbyists for the fossil fuel industry” donated to Clinton. But he’s including lobbyists who represent many clients other than oil and gas companies. uSanders said Clinton “barely mentioned the Palestinians” in a speech she gave before The American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

But she made a point similar to Sanders’ in that speech. uClinton claimed Sanders was the first to say she is unqualified to be president. That’s wrong. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida used that same line of attack. uClinton glossed over the facts when asked about her claim Vermont had the highest per capita number of guns recovered from crimes in New York. She said “most of the guns that end up committing crimes in New York come from out of state.” But most don’t come from Vermont. uSanders may have left viewers with the misleading impression the names of donors who contribute to political action committees supporting Clinton are “completely undisclosed.” Super PACs must disclose their donors. uBoth candidates left out some context in a rehashed disagreement about whether Sanders had once advocated regime change in Libya. u Sanders strained the facts when he attributed Clinton’s lead in delegate votes to her victories in the “Deep South.” She swept Southern states but won seven other states, too.

JUSTIN SULLIVAN, GETTY IMAGES

Democratic president contenders Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders smile during Thursday’s often-contentious debate in Brooklyn.

MINIMUM WAGE

Clinton strained to blur her differences with Sanders over how high to raise the federal minimum wage.

Clinton: “I have supported the fight for $15. I am proud to have the endorsement of most of the unions that have led the fight for $15. … I will work as hard as I can to raise the minimum wage. I always have. I supported that when I was in the Senate.”

Sanders: “I am sure a lot of people are very surprised to learn that you supported raising the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour.”

Until now, as Clinton’s own website makes clear, “She has supported raising the federal minimum wage to $12.” That would be a big increase from the current $7.25 an hour, which has been unchanged since 2009. But Sanders favors more than doubling the rate to $15 an hour.

The “fight for 15” that Clinton referred to is an effort backed by the Service Employees International Union to raise state and local minimum wages to $15 wherever possible. And her website says “we should go further than the federal minimum through state and local efforts” (emphasis added).

Clinton’s position seemed to evolve during the Brooklyn de-

bate, however.

CLINTON ON PALESTINIANS

Sanders said Clinton “barely mentioned the Palestinians” in a speech she gave before The American Israel Public Affairs Committee in March. But what Clinton did say was similar to a point that Sanders himself made during the debate.

Sanders: “You gave a major speech to AIPAC, which obviously deals with the Middle East crisis, and you barely mentioned the Palestinians. And I think, again, it is a complicated issue and God knows for decades presidents, including President Clinton and others, Jimmy Carter and others have tried to do the right thing.”

During the debate, Sanders, who said he is “100% pro-Israel,” also said that “we are going to have to treat the Palestinian people with respect and dignity” if there is to be peace in the region between Israel and Palestine.

Clinton made a similar point in her speech at AIPAC. Clinton, March 21: “It may be difficult to imagine progress in this current climate when many Israelis doubt that a willing and capable partner for peace even exists. But inaction cannot be an option. Israelis deserve a secure homeland for the Jewish people.

Palestinians should be able to

govern themselves in their own state, in peace and dignity. And only a negotiated two-state agreement can survive those outcomes.”

CLINTON’S QUALIFICATIONS

Clinton claimed Sanders was the first to say she is unqualified to be president. That’s inaccurate. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida used that same line of attack.

Sanders last week questioned Clinton’s qualifications to be president because of her past support for trade agreements and the Iraq war. And then he quickly walked it back, saying “of course” she was qualified.

During the debate, moderator Wolf Blitzer recalled the kerfuffle over Clinton’s qualifications and then asked the Vermont senator if he thought that Clinton had the judgment to be president. Sanders said Clinton had the experience and intelligence, but not the judgment.

Clinton: “Senator Sanders did call me unqualified. I’ve been called a lot of things in my life.

That was a first.”

It was not a first. For different reasons, Rubio and Christie made the same charge. At a Jan. 26 debate, Christie criticized Clinton for putting classified information at risk by using a private server

and email account for government business. “She is not qualified to be president of the United States,” Christie said.

Rubio made his remarks during a speech in Iowa on Feb. 28.

Rubio, Feb. 28: “Hillary Clinton is not qualified to be president of the United States of America. She broke the law. She put her emails, private, no, classified information on her private server. She thinks she is above the law. No one is above the law. But on more serious — even more — even more serious note, Hillary Clinton on the 11 of September of 2012, lied to the families of Americans who lost their lives in the service of our country. Four brave Americans died in Benghazi and she told them, she told their families that they died because (of a) video and she knew it was because of the terrorist attack. And I’m telling you, anyone who lies to the families of those who have lost their lives in the service of our country can never be the commander-in-chief of the United States of America.”

As an aside, we note Washington Post Fact Checker Glenn Kessler interviewed family members of the Americans who died in Benghazi, and came away with conflicting accounts of what they say Clinton told them.

SANDERS ON ‘DEEP SOUTH’

Sanders strained the facts when he attributed Clinton’s lead in delegate votes to her victories in the “Deep South,” which he said was “the most conservative part” of the United States.

Sanders: “Secretary Clinton cleaned our clock in the Deep South. No question about it. We got murdered there. That is the most conservative part of this great country. That’s the fact. But you know what? We’re out of the Deep South now.”

It’s true that Clinton has swept nominating contests in Southern states from Texas through South Carolina. But she has also won in the Midwestern states of Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and Ohio, in the Western states of Nevada and Arizona and in the Northeastern state of Massachusetts.

Furthermore, Clinton’s success in Southern primaries was widely attributed to her popularity among African-American voters, not among conservatives.

IN BRIEF WILDFIRES CHARRING U.S. AT NEAR-RECORD PACE

Wildfires have already charred a whopping 1.3 million acres so far this year across the U.S, which is more than twice the average for this time of the year and the most in 10 years, according to data released Friday by the National Interagency Fire Center.

The area burned in total so far this year is about the size of the state of Delaware.

Most of the fires have been in the southern states, such as the fires that singed Oklahoma last week, fire center spokeswoman Jessica Gardetto said Friday.

It has been a rough fire season in the southern Plains. The Anderson Creek Fire, which flared up in late March and spanned Oklahoma and Kansas, was the largest wildfire in Kansas history and the largest blaze in the U.S. so far this year, charring an area about twice the size of the five boroughs of New York City.

In Arizona, almost twice as many fires burned in the first quarter of the year (294) compared with last year (147), state fire officials say.

Hundreds of patients were evacuated early Saturday from a hospital near collapse after a powerful magnitude-7.0 earthquake — the second major temblor in barely 24 hours — struck the southwest Japanese island of

President Obama and his wife Michelle paid $81,472 in federal taxes last year on an adjusted gross income of $436,065, his tax return shows.

That's the lowest tax bill — and his lowest annual income — since becoming president, owing largely to diminishing sales of his books. Most of Obama's income comes from his $400,000-a-year salary as president. But he also continues to receive outside income of $60,745 in royalties from his two adult books Dreams from My Father and Audacity of Hope.

The royalties from a children's book, Of Thee I Sing, are donated to charity.

The Obamas file a joint return, with Michelle Obama showing no income and listing her occupation as "First Lady."

MONEYLINE GM SEAT-BELT DEFECT TRIGGERS TRUCK RECALL A seat belt defect triggered a recall of more than 1 million General Motors pickups. GM said Friday it would issue a recall for 2014 and 2015 model-year Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. GM said it was not aware of any crashes, injuries or deaths connected to the defect, which it discovered by sifting through warranty data. The problem stems from a flexible steel cable that can wear out as the driver repeatedly sits down, eventually causing it to snap.

Instead, it served to keep the company alive. Shuddle targeted parents willing to pay fares slightly higher than Uber and Lyft for access to drivers who had passed a rigorous company screening that valued childcare experience. The vast majority of its drivers were women.

“I look for a role where work actually gets done and I’m challenged,” says Arnold, who lives in Cincinnati. “Getting new skills and things you can take with you if things go south or you wanted to leave is really more valuable than an extra couple thousand dollars.”

tech company that will pay him up to $7,000 less a year than his previous job as a commissionbased sales representative for Tyco Integrated Security in Oakbrook, Ill. Yet he says, “I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited in my life about anything.”

Loos took a job at Ring, a home security start-up, because it offered more opportunities for career growth, a younger office and a start-up culture.

“I wanted to be at a company that I can grow within and enjoy doing my work,” he says.

Professional development is one of the key factors this age group looks for in evaluating job offers, the Fidelity data show.

Paid time off and flexibility in work schedule are also top nonfinancial considerations.

“It’s a cultural shift,” says Scott Dobroski, a spokesman for workplace review site Glassdoor. “If they do not see work/life balance where they can go out and learn about the world, (a better salary) does not interest them enough.

They want to go and work somewhere where they are going to feel valued.”

ERIC SEALS, DETROIT FREE PRESS

Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne says consolidation in the automotive industry is an inevitable need.

Marchionne’s comments came one day after John Elkann, chairman of Fiat and chairman of Exor, touted the benefits of a merger with a major automaker in a letter sent to Exor shareholders. Exor is FCA’s largest shareholder.

Still, a deal between FCA and another automaker is far from imminent.

“As we consistently have said, Ford has no plan or interest other than to continue to accelerate our One Ford plan, deliver product excellence and drive innovation in every part of our business,” Ford said in a statement.

A spokesman for Toyota declined to comment.

Marchionne said any transaction that takes place will not occur until after the company’s five-year strategic plan is completed in 2018. “Someone else would have to carry it out,” Marchionne, 63, said according to Bloomberg. Marchionne plans to retire from FCA after 2018.

Thursday, Elkann, the greatgrandson of the founder of Fiat, told Exor shareholders FCA believes it could save $10 billion annually in a merger with one of the industry’s “big guys.”

Exor, an investment fund based in Italy and controlled by the automaker’s founding Agnelli family, owns 29% of FCA.

Twitter hire targets advertising growth in China Stuggling social media network appoints Chen despite ban Jessica Guynn USA TODAY

Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne is again dialing up speculation about an eventual merger with a major automaker even though it doesn’t appear he is in serious discussions with any company.

Marchionne told reporters in Amsterdam he sees Ford, Toyota and Volkswagen as potential partners for a “big” auto-industry merger, according to reports from Bloomberg News and Reuters.

Marchionne has been talking about inevitable need for consolidation in the global automotive industry for more than a year.

Last year, Marchionne tried to force General Motors into merger discussions but was rejected by the automaker several times.

“The door has never been closed. The need to consolidate does not go away,” Marchionne said Friday in Amsterdam, according to Reuters, as investors gathered for Fiat Chrysler’s annual shareholder meeting.

SAN FRANCISCO Searching for advertising growth in China, Twitter has hired a new business chief in China.

Kathy Chen has joined Twitter as its new managing director for China, the company said Friday.

Blocked on mainland China since 2009, Twitter opened a Hong Kong office last year to drum up more business in the world’s second-largest economy.

Twitter isn’t the only major Silicon Valley tech company press-

ing for greater opportunity in China despite being banned there. Facebook is courting Chinese advertisers and Google is pursuing developers.

In an emailed statement, Twitter said: “As a global platform, we are already engaged with advertisers, content providers and influencers across Greater China to help them reach audiences around the world.

“Going forward, we will look to Kathy’s leadership to help us identify ways in which Twitter’s platform and technology assets can be utilized to create further value for enterprises, creators, influencers, partners and developers in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.”

“Because of the success we’ve seen, we want to expand the in-

vestment we’re making in (the region),” Shailesh Rao, Twitter’s vice-president for Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Emerging Markets, told the newspaper.

“Kathy Chen will be responsible for developing the strategy and running the business.”

Twitter’s user growth has stalled amid growing questions about its future. In the fourth quarter, Twitter said it had 320 million users, the same as the previous quarter.

Chen is a former general manager at Microsoft and Cisco.

“Although we are not familiar with Chen, we believe her announced addition signals a strong focus on opportunities and growth in China,” S&P Global Market Intelligence analyst Scott Kessler wrote in a research note.

By the end of next week, Wall Street will have a good idea if the U.S. consumer is still spending, if tech gadgets and services are still in demand, what the outlook is for the spring home selling season and whether China’s stimulus is finally putting its slowing economy back on the right track.

Look for a nice pickup in third, fourth quarters

Q: How long will financials be dead money?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Financials are reminding investors why they’ve been a bad place to be this year. But investors are looking for a turnaround soon.

First-quarter earnings reports from big banks so far, ranging from Bank of America, Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase, have all shown year-over-year declines.

Financials have turned into the worst of the 10 sectors in the Standard & Poor’s 500 this year. The Financial Select Sector SPDR exchange-traded fund is down 3.7% this year so far, underperforming the market’s roughly 2% increase.

Investors correctly anticipated a poor quarter for financials, as analysts expected the sector’s adjusted profit to fall nearly 7% in the period, making it the fourth-worst sector behind energy, materials and industrials, S&P Global Market Intelligence says.

Analysts are calling for more disappointing earnings from financials in the second quarter but will pick up a bit in the second half of the year. Currently, financials are expected to report 4.5% lower adjusted earnings in the second quarter, S&P Global says.

The key is the third quarter, during which analysts see financials’ earnings bouncing back by nearly 9%. And in the fourth quarter, financial profits are to jump 16%, analysts say.

Bats Global’s good start could bode well for IPO market Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Investors are hopeful Bats Global and its successful sale of new stock to the public will help get the cobwebs out of the initial public offering market.

Shares of the provider of trading services on stock and options exchanges in the U.S. and Europe surged more than 20% Friday to close at $23 a share.

That was a strong reception given that the initial price of the stock was set at $19 a share,

BATS GLOBAL

Bats shares started trading Friday.

which was at the top of the expected price range of $17 to $19 a share.

Bats is the second-largest provider of exchange trading in the United States behind the Intercontinental Exchange’s New

York Stock Exchange and the largest in Europe, according to regulatory filings.

The Bats deal interrupts a significant drought in IPOs. So far this year, there have been only 10 companies selling stock to the public for the first time, down 77% from the same period a year ago, says Renaissance Capital. The companies selling stock this year raised just $1 billion, down 86% from the same period a year ago.

Bats is “the first significant IPO of the year,” says Renaissance analyst Matt Kennedy.

“It’s definitely a positive sign for

the IPO market.”

The IPO market’s true test will come over the next few weeks as additional deals measure investor appetite.

Next week, three IPOs are due to begin trading that could be interesting for different reasons. MGM Growth Properties is aiming to raise $1 billion, one of the biggest deals the market has seen in some time, Kennedy says. It is a real-estate investment trust with stakes in 10 casino and entertainment real-estate properties.

Also next week comes American Renal Associates, a company

involved in kidney dialysis centers. This IPO is important because it’s the first involving a company with leveraged-buyout backing and it is carrying a heavy load of debt. Finally, next week awaits the IPO of security company SecureWorks, which is looking to be the first tech deal of the year. The company was spun out of Dell, which is privately held.

Even with these deals, it looks like this will be a sluggish year for IPOs, Kennedy says. “2016 will definitely be a slow year,” he says. “We’re not going to come back from the first quarter.”

‘Next Cut’ brings back the fun, but it also carries a timely message

@PatRyanWrites USA TODAY

Cedric the Entertainer wasn’t about to book just any Barbershop appointment.

Ever since Barbershop 2: Back In Business opened in 2004, the comedian heard various ideas for a potential threequel in the hit franchise (whose 2002 original snipped $75.8 million at the box office). But it wasn’t until two years ago that the scissors were set in motion, after Cedric and co-star Ice Cube read a topical new script by Black-ish creator Kenya Barris and Tracy Oliver.

“Most of the time, when people get into the third or fourth installments of movies, you have a sense that everybody’s just doing a money grab,” says Cedric, 51, who returns as the wisecracking Eddie in Barbershop: The Next Cut (in theaters nationwide Friday). “I’m glad we waited until now. It feels like a film that’s saying something. It’s funny and has a unique message to it.”

Next Cut picks up a decade after the sequel with family man Calvin (Cube), who has merged his Chicago barbershop with the neighboring beauty salon run by Angie (Regina Hall). Staffed by a crop of old and new faces played

by Eve, Common and Nicki Minaj, the local hangout joins forces with members of the community to host a “cease-fire,” giving free haircuts in an attempt to start a dialogue between warring gangs.

The movie’s timeliness was part of what drew actor/rapper Common, 44, a native of Chi-

Sleek stylist Draya (Nicki Minaj) and Calvin’s friend Rashad (Common) are the new kids on the Barbershop block. cago’s South Side who has witnessed the devastating effects of gun violence firsthand.

“One of my close friends was shot and killed less than 200 feet from his home,” Common says.

“To get that call in the middle of the night, and the person on the other line can barely get the words out because they’re so hurt and crying. ... Growing up, I experienced it enough to know that it’s something you don’t want other people to go through.”

The comedy was also a chance for him to work with Cube, a new Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee as a member of N.W.A. As ’90s rap fans may remember, the hip-hop stars publicly feuded over a series of diss tracks, starting with Common’s 1994 single, I Used to Love H.E.R., which criticized West Coast gangsta rap. It wasn’t until the rappers sat down with Minister Louis Farrakhan,

shortly after the Notorious B.I.G.’s death in 1997, that they made peace.

“We both understood that nothing positive was going to come of beefing,” Common says.

“We’re more alike than we are different, and it was one of those things like, ‘Man, I can’t believe I was beefing with you.’ I was happy he even knew who I was, because this was early in my career.

I was like, ‘Man, Ice Cube knows who I am.’ ” They’ve since collaborated on a new song, Real People, which is featured on the Barbershop soundtrack and preaches unity.

For their fans, “I hope us settling our beef will be an example of ‘You can get over that, because it’s not worth somebody’s life,’ ” Common says. “Who knows? One day down the line, you may end up doing business or creating something with that person.”

Feel free to skip a summertime visit to the zoo: Director Jon Favreau’s The Jungle Book redo is the closest you’re going to get MOVIE REVIEW to being plopped BRIAN right in the middle TRUITT of one seriously wild kingdom.

Based on Rudyard Kipling’s adventures of a man-cub and his animal friends — also the basis for Disney’s 1967 animated musical — the new Jungle Book (eeeE out of four; rated PG; in theaters nationwide Friday) is a technical filmmaking achievement full of eye-popping computer-generated creatures and so-real-you-can-touch-it plant life. What a high-tech sheen gives it in realism, though, takes away from the jaunty lightheartedness of the old classic.

Newcomer Neel Sethi is the lone human face in the entire movie. He plays Mowgli, the boy raised by wolves to be one of their pack and live life by the code passed down by leader Akela (voiced by Giancarlo Esposito) and Mowgli’s surrogate “mom,” Raksha (Lupita Nyong’o). A truce between the animals during a particularly dry season

brings everyone to the same watering hole, which leads to Mowgli being targeted by the menacing Bengal tiger Shere Khan (Idris Elba).

Wanting to keep his furry family safe, Mowgli decides to go it alone, and his loyal panther pal Bagheera (Ben Kingsley) takes the boy on a journey to find a new tribe, preferably of his own species. After a sneak attack by Shere Khan splits them up, Mowgli makes fast friends with the lazy and talkative bear Baloo (Bill Murray) yet also has to face various dangers, including a final showdown with the hateful tiger.

The animal characters are rendered amazingly, down to distinctive details such as the man-caused scars on Shere Khan’s face to the hypnotic eyes of the seductive python Kaa (Scarlett Johansson), who views Mowgli primarily as snake food.

(They’re so true to life that some darker scenes may scare little ones.)

Because this landscape is just as immersive as the alien world of Avatar, sometimes even more so because of familiar animal elements, there’s a definite disconnect in Justin Marks’ screenplay

Mowgli (Neel Sethi) shares a moment with his wolf mother, Raksha (voiced by Lupita Nyong’o). between Mowgli’s deadlier antagonists and the humorous ties to the old Jungle Book.

Baloo and the boy’s bouncy rendition of The Bare Necessities is just as catchy as it ever was, but the tune I Wanna Be Like You doesn’t have quite the same playfulness. There’s no monkeying around with crooning jungle VIP King Louie (Christopher Walken), who goes berserk in Mowgli’s general direction after the kid won’t help him “summon the red flower” (create fire).

The vocal talents are all on point, especially Murray as the

DISNEY

fun-loving Baloo. Elba gives ominously suave life to his vicious cat, and Walken adds a nice oddball quality to Louie. Their efforts are matched by wowing special effects, though there are some moments where Mowgli is running through some iffy CGI backgrounds.

Favreau crafts a wonderfully imagined world for a new generation of Jungle Book aficionados.

And though it lacks the charm of the ’60s effort, there’s enough of a romp for the older fans to forget about their worries and their strife.

nside homes, people often use pictures, art, paint, window treatments and other items to create visual interest on walls. Take that concept to the garden, and think about how fences and the exterior walls of homes and other buildings define the yard.

There are many ways to “decorate” fences and walls in the garden to soften their

appearance and make the garden feel more like an extension of your home.

One of the easiest ways to soften a flat upright surface is to grow a vining plant on it. Boston ivy and Virginia creeper are good choices for a traditional vine-covered look.

Avoid English ivy in most cases. Although it is unlikely to cause structural damage

on sound masonry, it will find its way into tiny cracks and could compound problems. It is also heavy and aggressive.

For a different look and a little depth, try growing a smaller vine on a trellis in front of the wall or fence.

Pipevine, clematis, climbing hydrangea and wisteria are good options for trellises. On a long wall, use multiple trel-

lises to break up the space or create frames for plants growing in front. Trellises can be anything from inexpensive fencing panels to elaborate one-of-a-kind pieces.

Another option is to build a structure to grow plants in and on. Living wall systems are popular right now, but Please see WALLS, page 3C

Tips for making a lush, green lawn

of fertilizer in a small area can kill the grass.

“A balanced fertilization with a pre-emergent for control of annual grasses, (e.g. crabgrass), should be applied during the month of April, since crabgrass begins to emerge in May,” says Michael van de Bossche, owner of Earth-Wood Arts in Indianapolis. “Nitrogen should be a 50/50 split of fast and slow-release forms.”

His advice applies to lawns in the Midwestern region of the United States.

For additional fertilizer information, check your local university extension.

Van de Bossche says too much quick-release fertilizer combined with spring rains can create too lush of a growth, which increases turf and fungus problems.

Is there a green option for lawn care?

Organic lawn fertilizer is a popular option for homeowners with a green thumb. It’s made up of living organisms, such as plant and animal matter. It releases nutrients at a slower pace and over a longer period of time than synthetic fertilizers.

Michaels says the

organic approach doesn’t provide immediate results like a synthetic fertilizer, but over time, it improves the overall quality of the lawn, reducing the amount of future applications.

“Synthetic fertilizers throw quick-release nutrients at the grass, but whatever they can’t use up quickly runs off and can potentially pollute water sources,” she says. “Slowrelease nutrients found in organic sources like corn gluten, alfalfa meal, fish emulsion and compost become available gradually as the plants need them.”

Lawn maintenance and repair Some of the most common lawn problems include bare spots, dead patches and areas that have been infested by dandelions and weeds.

Bare spots are the most noticeable lawn problem, but they can be repaired with a little patience and persistence.

Michaels says sod is an option for large patches, but it can be hard to blend with the rest of the lawn.

“If you have full sun for six or more hours in the area, sod can be an instantgratification fix,” she says.

“Depending on the overall quality of the lawn, however, it can give a patchwork appearance.”

For smaller patches or areas that receive less sun, Michaels recommends grass seed.

“Rough up the soil, premix seed with a little compost, and throw down the mixture,” she says. “Run the back of a rake over it

How to battle stubborn weeds Invasive weeds and dandelions are problems you may have to combat.

Dandelions are a perennial weed, which means they have deep roots that survive the winter and come back the following spring. The best way to keep them out of your yard is to attack them as soon as they appear.

“The most effective, though time-consuming, thing is to dig out the whole root,” Michaels says.

You can also use a lawn and garden sprayer with an organic or synthetic herbicide to spray dandelions and weeds as they appear.

It’s important to limit the use of these products because they can cause harm to the body and runoff can enter waterways and streams.

to get seed in contact with the soil, and keep it evenly moist.”

For bare spots around flower beds or in areas that receive little sun, she says one option is to expand an existing bed or create a new one altogether. It fixes the problem and adds new landscaping to the yard.

Dead spots form from too much sunlight, a lack of water, concentrations of pet urine or the overuse of fertilizer. To repair these unsightly brown spots, remove the dead grass down to the bare soil and apply grass seed.

If granule fertilizer was the culprit, you will be able to see collections of the small pellets and remove it.

you could also install shelves or frames on which to set flower pots. Set them at eye level as you would a shelf or picture on an interior wall.

With the right kind of hanger, pots can also be attached directly to the fence or wall. Old pallets can also be repurposed to create window boxstyle planters that can be hung on a wall or fence or simply positioned in front.

Weatherproof art is another option. Find a sculpture to hang or paint a mural directly on the wall or fence. (Find an artistic friend to help

825 Illinois | MLS# 139301 with this if necessary.)

On another section of fence, hang an old window or a large empty picture frame to draw the viewer’s eye.

If there is a hedge along the wall or fence, alternate heights to cre-

ate the look of pillars or to draw attention to other plants nearby.

Where seating is an option, place a bench or a table and chairs with the wall as a backdrop and lots of plants nearby.

Patch a hole with FiberFix

I

f you have a hole or crack in almost anything, including your boat, wheelbarrow, gutter or tub, you can fix it in 30 minutes or less using a FiberFix brand rigid patch.

Available in several sizes, the patches can be used separately or side by side to repair large areas.

Step 1: Apply FiberFix patches in a dimly lit area, away from ultraviolet light. Patches will cure in under 10 seconds if exposed to direct sun.

Step 2: Clean the surface to be repaired.

Allow the surface to dry completely.

Step 3: Use 80 grit aluminum oxide sand paper to roughen the surface.

FiberFix adheres best to rough surfaces.

Step 4: Use the small wipe that comes with the patch kit to clear away dust residue once the sanding is complete.

Fix-It Chick

Linda Cottin Step 5: Put on gloves included with patch kit.

Step 6: Use scissors to open the sealed pouch containing the patch. The resin on the patch will begin to cure as soon as it is exposed to light. Be prepared to work quickly.

Step 7: Remove the patch from the pouch and peel the protective black plastic from the underside of the patch.

Step 8: Position the patch over the area to be repaired and press into place. The edges of the patch should extend

at least an inch past all sides of the repair area.

If the area to be repaired is larger than the patch, a second patch can be applied next to the first.

Step 9: Press the patch firmly onto the surface through the protective clear film. Start from the edges and work toward the center to create an air-tight, smooth seal. Gaps or raised edges will compromise the seal and cause the patch to fail.

Step 10: Once the patch is firmly in place, expose it to sunlight or ultraviolet light to begin the curing process. The patch will turn from yellow to white as it cures. Wait five minutes after the patch has turned completely white before removing the protective film.

RIVER CITY BASEBALL FESTIVAL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Brad Frederick finds loss still stings Just 1.1 percent of the 351 Div. I college basketball programs advance all the way to the Final Four, at which 75 percent of those schools finish the experience on a sad note.

Nobody can feel the difference between one side of that microscopic line that separates euphoria from torment, one shining moment from a hovering dark one, more deeply and freshly than those associated with the North Carolina basketball program.

Marcus Paige created one of the greatest photographs in NCAA Tournament history, contorting his body into a ball in mid-air to escape a defender’s reach and hitting from that unconventional form a game-tying three-pointer that erased a deficit that less than five minutes earlier had reached 10 points. Many North Carolina fans turned their seat cushions into frisbees, celebrating the moment. In about the amount of time the average human spends between blinks, Villanova’s Kris Jenkins took a pass from Ryan Arcidiacono and turned it into an immortal poster. Jenkins called for the ball, and Arcidiacono heard him, creating an echo that will never die.

But what about the near winners? Shouldn’t time heal the wounds and turn them into pride? North Carolina came closer than 349 other schools, came as close any runner-up had ever come. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way in competitive sports. The details of losses linger longer than those born in victories.

Brad Frederick, son of late Kansas University athletic director Dr. Bob Frederick, is director of basketball operations for North Carolina. He is the one on the bench who sits closest to the scorer’s table, next to Hubert Davis, who is next to C.B. McGrath, who is next to Roy Williams.

“I definitely didn’t sleep on Monday night, didn’t sleep a lick. Then I would say every night since then I’ve gotten a little more sleep,” Frederick said of the 10 nights that followed that sleepless night. “It’s something you live with. For me, 17 years in coaching, and it was my first one. It makes you realize how hard it is to get there. You wonder if I’ll ever get a chance to get back. Hopefully, we will.

It’s certainly been tough.”

Frederick estimated he has gone to about 25 Final Fours, the first at Kemper Arena in 1988, when Danny and the Miracles defeated Oklahoma in the title game that was tied, 50-50, at the half. He went again in 1991, when Kansas lost to Duke in the national-title game.

His father’s position on the tournament committee gave him the connection he needed to land a job as Final Four ball boy in 1992, 1993 and 1994. He was a reserve on North Carolina’s 1997 and ’98 Final Four

LAWRENCE HIGH SOPHOMORE CATCHER REESE CARMONA, RIGHT, prevents Sioux Falls O’Gorman junior Brandon Ching from scoring during the Lions’ eventual 22-4 loss in the River City Baseball Festival on Friday at LHS.

Lions roughed up by O’Gorman

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After nearly fighting back from a five-run deficit against Sioux Falls (S.D) O’Gorman on Friday, Lawrence High’s baseball team had no fight left in the late innings in a 22-4 loss at LHS. The Lions trailed, 5-0, in the top of the first inning.

They chipped away at their deficit over the next two innings, but couldn’t keep up with O’Gorman’s bats.

LHS pitchers left the ball up in the strike zone, and O’Gorman hitters had no problem turning the game into a hitting clinic.

In the sixth inning, the Knights scored 10 runs on 10 hits against three LHS pitchers. With two outs, they had six straight hits and one batter hit by a pitch.

“Kind of a good thing that the scoreboard didn’t work 90 percent of the evening,” LHS coach Brad Stoll said, “because I got tired of looking up there when it did work.”

How well were things going for the Knights?

O’Gorman junior Brandon Ching, out of the nine-hole in the batting order, went 4-for5 with two doubles and two RBI. He was one of five batters with at least three hits.

“Those guys can flat-out swing the bat,” Stoll said.

“When you pitch from behind all night, that’s going to happen. Then when you do throw strikes and they are elevated, that’s what is going to happen. We’re on the field (again) in 18 hours, flush it and move on. Just sometimes you get thumped, and it was ugly.”

The Lions (5-5) scored three runs in the first inning, when their first four hitters reached base. After sophomore Reese Carmona hit a leadoff single and sophomore Andrew Stewart drew a walk, senior Brad Kincaid hit an RBI single. Sophomore Devin Lauts followed with a

RBI double to center field, and Kincaid later scored on an error.

In the second inning, the Lions only trailed by a run after Stewart hit a single, advanced two bases on wild pitches and scored on a ground ball to short, beating the throw to the plate.

“They punched us in the mouth, and we fought back,” Stoll said. “I thought if we could keep it close, we’d be all right because we’ve been in those games, and we’ve been fine. But then they just blew it open, and we had no answer.”

Firebirds run-rule Memorial, 10-0

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

One of the beautiful qualities of baseball is the ability to play the next day. It wipes away the memories of any bad plays or pitches.

Looking to bounce back after giving up four runs in one inning, Free State High junior pitcher Aaron Funk was back to his usual self Friday. He shined on the mound, striking out six in four innings in a 10-0 victory against Tulsa (Okla.) Memorial at FSHS. It was the same story for the Firebirds, who made uncharacteristic mistakes in the field and on the basepaths in their previous game. They made no errors and were rewarded for aggressiveness on offense.

Funk, a 6-foot-5, 200-pound right-hander, was in control after allowing a hit and a walk in the first inning. He settled in and unloaded a mid-80s fastball and devastating curveball on Memorial hitters.

Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo

FREE STATE HIGH SHORTSTOP MATT HILL, LEFT, TURNS A DOUBLE PLAY during the Firebirds’ 10-0 victory over Tulsa (Okla.) Memorial on Friday at FSHS. Among the final 10 batters who faced Funk, only one ball left the infield — a flyout to center field.

“He showed some fortitude by bouncing back today and throwing well, attacking the zone,” FSHS coach Mike Hill said of Funk. “The breaking ball was really good. Ve-

locity is already there on the fastball. You add a good 12-6 hard-breaking curveball like that, you’ve got the makings of something.”

Hill said it was important for Funk to return to the mound Friday after getting hit around for an inning Thursday. It was his first bad

outing of the season, and it gave him a chance to redeem himself.

“It feels great,” Funk said.

“Just prepared for them and gave them the best I had.”

The game ended in the fifth inning because of the 10run mercy rule, when FSHS junior outfielder Jacob Pavlyak stepped to the plate with the bases loaded and laced a RBI single into left field.

Pavlyak, who joined the team a few weeks late because of the basketball season, has started to find his rhythm at the plate. He went 2-for-2 with two walks on Friday after drilling two hits in the previous afternoon.

“Coaches have been helping me the whole year so far, and I feel like it’s finally coming around,” Pavlyak said.

“I’m just seeing it better.”

Hill added: “He’s got ability with the bat, and he’s had a couple of nice hits the last couple of days. That’s important for us, because if he’s going and we get Please see FIREBIRDS, page 6D

Azubuike scores 10 in Brand Classic

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Future Kansas University power forward Udoka Azubuike, a 6-foot-11 senior from Potter’s House Christian in Jacksonville, Fla., scored 10 points and grabbed six rebounds in helping the East to a 131-117 Please see KEEGAN, page 3D victory over the West in

Friday’s Jordan Brand Classic in New York.

Azubuike, who turns 17 on Sept. 17, thus must spend a minimum of two seasons at KU before being age-eligible for the NBA Draft, hit three of five shots and four of six free throws. Ranked No. 27 in the recruiting Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, Azubuike also had two blocks and a

highlight-reel reverse dunk.

Co-MVP’s De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk, who both will attend Kentucky, had 23 and 22 points respectively.

Azubuike is looking forward to being a KU teammate of No. 1-rated Josh Jackson next season.

“I just found out from the Internet,” Azubuike told Zagsblog.com, referring to

learning of Jackson’s commitment on Monday night.

“I think my boy Mitch Lightfoot, he’s going to Kansas, he tagged me on Twitter about it. I just went on Twitter and I was like, ‘Oh wow, really?’ I was impressed.

“I didn’t jump up and down,” added Azubuike.

AP National Writer

Hey NCAA, why don’t you make Chris Beard sit out a year?

Maybe even two.

In yet another sign of how remarkably out of whack the whole state of college athletics is in this country, Beard left UNLV on Friday to take the head-coaching job at Texas Tech — less than two weeks after this mercenary bolted from Arkansas-Little Rock to assume the same job with the Runnin’ Rebels.

Yet, just try being a college athlete who wants to play for another school, perhaps because the coach who recruited you — who was probably the major reason you picked that particular school — got a better offer elsewhere. Or, in Beard’s case, two better offers just since the end of the recently completed men’s basketball season.

Sure, you can transfer. But only if you sit out a year. And perhaps not to the school of your choice, if the new coach wants to be real jerk about it.

That’s the way it is in college sports, where the guys in charge have all the power and hoard all the millions, while doling out condescending platitudes about the purity of the game and laughably insisting that it’s all about the kids.

Yeah, right.

If the NCAA and its university overlords gave a hoot about those who wear the uniforms and bring in the revenue that allows coaches to earn millions, they’d immediately tweak one of the most onerous decrees in their serfdom.

The transfer rule.

Specifically, the governing body should allow players to switch to a new school, one of their choice and without restrictions, if their head coach departs for any reason.

Jeff Teague got an idea of just how high the cards are stacked against the athletes during his college days at Wake Forest, under much more tragic circumstances.

Before he ever played a game for the Demon Deacons, his coach, Skip Prosser, died of a heart attack in the summer of 2007. Teague headed home to Indiana, a broken-hearted 19-year-old who wasn’t sure if he still wanted to play for the Atlantic Coast Conference school. Prosser, after all, was the primary lure.

We’ll let Teague, who now plays for the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks, take it from there: “That’s the only guy who recruited me, the only guy I knew. So I went through that process of trying to go back home. But they told me they may not grant me a release to play right away. So I stuck it out.”

Teague has no regrets about staying at Wake Forest, where he starred for two seasons before being picked in the first round by the Hawks.

Still, that doesn’t make it right.

“If a coach leaves, the players should have an opportunity to pick another school,” Teague said. “Most of the time, the kids go there to play for that coach.”

That’s certainly the way it was for one of Teague’s current teammates, Kent Bazemore, who four years removed from his days at Old Dominion still keeps in touch with his college coach, Blaine Taylor.

“The coach is huge,” said Bazemore, adding “it’s outrageous” how the NCAA limits players’ options.

‘Pint-sized Patriot’ goes viral

By Tom Keegan Twitter: @TomKeeganLJW

Starting with Dr. Bob Frederick, late athletic director of Kansas University, the Frederick family has built a rich Final Four tradition.

Bob served as the chairman of the NCAA Tournament selection committee and hired Roy Williams, who took the Jayhawks to four Final Fours.

Bob’s son, Brad Frederick, director of operations on Williams’ staff at North Carolina, went to two Final Fours as a player at North Carolina and earlier this month was in Houston, where the Tar Heels lost at the buzzer to Villanova in the nationaltitle game.

But for the moment, pint-sized patriot Sawyer Frederick, the

teams. Div. 1 coaches have face-value access to Final Four tickets, and he took advantage of that several times.

“Most coaches go to the Final Four almost every year,” Frederick said. “As you get older, seasons get longer, losses hurt more, you decided, ‘I don’t really want to be there.’ There were a couple of those for me.”

Bob Frederick’s choice of Williams as a successor to Larry Brown at Kansas sent shock waves throughout college basketball, given that Williams was considered Dean Smith’s No. 3 assistant coach at the time. That stroke of

youngest of Brad and Jocelyn’s three children, has become the most famous of all the Fredericks.

A video of Sawyer, all of 2 years old, shaking the hands of several military personnel on the tarmac after the North Carolina basketball team’s chartered flight landed for the Final Four, has gone viral.

Jocelyn took the video with her phone, and her brother-in-law, Chris Frederick, a KU graduate student and bartender at The Sandbar, posted it on YouTube, triggering a frenzy of interest from global media outlets, including (London-based) The Telegraph.

“It’s certainly wild how that’s exploded,” Brad Frederick said. “I sent it to my mom, and next

thing you know, Chris put it on the internet. I guess it’s taken five or six days to take off. It’s certainly taken off now.”

Chris said the video of his nephew put such a huge smile on his face that he wanted others to share similar feelings.

“Sawyer is really funny because he is adorable to look at, but he doesn’t talk a whole lot,” Jocelyn said by phone from North Carolina. “But he’s a busybody, toddles around like a pint-sized version of an adult, so he’s very funny.”

Jocelyn said the “PintSized Patriot” nickname has caught on in North Carolina.

Jocelyn and Sawyer appeared Thursday on “Fox and Friends,” and the video appears on the ABC news website.

Margey Frederick,

Sawyer’s grandmother and a Lawrence resident, said she is “incredibly proud. We are a family that always supported the military. It was really fun.

I had no idea it would mushroom into this much attention.”

Chris Frederick, the youngest of Bob and Margey’s four sons, said that at last check, one of the YouTube postings had reached 3.3 million views.

“I read the comments under it, and so many people posted that watching it brought them to tears,” Chris said. “So I sent my sister-in-law a text saying, ‘I bet you didn’t imagine when you were filming this you would make people all over the world cry.’”

The video is available at http://bit.ly/1qMazIP

genius resulted in Williams coaching Kansas to four Final Fours and North Carolina to four as well, two ending in national championships.

“Obviously, he’s struggling with it,” Frederick said of how Williams is taking the loss to Villanova. “As he’s told us, the loss was similar to the Syracuse game (Williams’ last as coach at Kansas in the 2003 national-title game in New Orleans), losing by three points.

But in the Syracuse game, coming back the whole way, but never tied it at the end like we did. It’s just amazing to me the run he’s had, eight Final Fours, five national-championship games. He’s struggling with it. You are so close and want it so badly for the players.”

Frederick, who called

Villanova “a tough team, a great team,” is in his third season back at North Carolina after working 14 seasons under Kevin Stallings at Vanderbilt. He joined the North Carolina team as a sophomore, played one season under Smith and two under Bill Guthridge.

Frederick knows what it feels like to win it all.

He was a starter on Lawrence High’s 1995 statechampionship team. He was so close to reviving similar emotions from his seat on the bench, wearing a suit and tie.

“I’ve seen several still shots of Marcus’ shot that tied it,” Frederick said. “I have an amazed look on my face. I can’t believe that shot went in. I feel bad for Marcus.

One of the best shots in tournament history, and

it won’t be as fondly remembered because Kris Jenkins makes a shot 4.7 seconds later.”

The dramatic finish filled the eyes of Ben Frederick, 7, oldest of Brad and Jocelyn’s three children, with tears.

KU graduate student and bartender at The Sandbar, Chris Frederick, youngest of Brad’s three brothers and Ben’s uncles, quickly tried to soften the blow with empathetic words.

“I did the same thing when I was your age,” Chris told his nephew, referencing KU’s Final Four losses in 1991 and 1993.

“We lost, and I was crying.

Better get used to it. When you have a life in sports, losses happen, as do wins.”

It’s a shame the losses have such sinister staying power.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Sale tosses two-hitter The Associated Press

American League White Sox 1, Rays 0 St. Petersburg, Fla. — Chris Sale tossed a twohitter, Melky Cabrera singled in Jimmy Rollins in the ninth, and Chicago beat Tampa Bay. Sale (3-0), from nearby Lakeland, struck out nine for his best start to a season since going 5-0 in 2014.

He retired 16 straight between singles by Desmond Jennings in the second and Steve Pearce in the seventh.

The game was delayed for about 10 minutes after the seventh so a woman struck by a foul ball in the bottom of the inning could get treatment.

Mariners 7, Yankees 1 New York — Robinson Cano got two more hits to celebrate his special connection to Jackie Robinson Day as Seattle sent New York to its third straight loss.

Cano’s father, a former major-league pitcher, named his son for the Brooklyn Dodgers great.

Cano improved to 14for-38 (.368) on the day all major leaguers honor the late Hall of Famer by wearing his No. 42.

Cano was 1-for-19 when he hit an early RBI single.

The former Yankees star began the season on a home run binge, but had cooled off.

Chris Iannetta homered, singled twice and drove in three runs. The Mariners opened a ninegame trip by boosting their road record to 3-1.

Red Sox 5, Blue Jays 3 Boston — Rick Porcello pitched 61⁄3 solid innings, and Travis Shaw hit a two-run double to lead Boston to a victory over Toronto.

David Ortiz added a run-scoring double for Boston, moving him one RBI behind Hall of Famer Tony Perez (1,652) for 26th all time. Big Papi also stole a base, joining Ted Williams, Cy Young and Rickey Henderson as the only four Red Sox players with a steal at 40-years-old.

Edwin Encarnacion hit his first two homers of the season, drove in all three Toronto runs and had all of three of the Blue Jays’ hits.

Porcello (2-0) gave up three runs and two hits, striking out eight and walking one. Craig Kimbrel got the final three outs for his third save.

National League Braves 6, Marlins 3 Miami — Adonis Garcia drove in three runs in the final three innings, and Atlanta rallied for its first victory of the year after nine consecutive losses.

The Braves managed just one hit in the first six innings, trailed 3-0 in the seventh and appeared on the verge of falling to 0-10, which would have matched the worst start in franchise history.

NBA plans jersey sponsorships New York (ap) — The NBA will begin putting sponsorship logos on player uniforms in 201718, a move that could generate at least $100 million annually and a step that the NFL, Major League Baseball and NHL have yet to take.

The three-year trial was approved Friday by NBA owners and will take effect when the league’s contract with Nike begins.

The patches will appear on the front left of the jersey, opposite Nike’s logo, and measure about 21⁄2 by 21⁄2 inches.

Logos appear on international and MLS soccer jerseys, and many athletes in individual sports wear their sponsors’ attire in competition.

Commissioner Adam Silver had said going with logos was inevitable because of the potential to add revenue. WNBA and NBA Development League teams already have logos, and NBA clubs were wearing them on practice jerseys.

NBA PLAYOFFS

Showdown possible for Warriors, Spurs

By Tim Reynolds AP Basketball Writer

The NBA playoffs start this weekend, and there’s no shortage of story lines worth following. Here’s a list of 10 to get you started:

1. The Warriors We begin with the reigning champions, the favorites to capture backto-back titles. Golden State set the NBA record with a 73-9 regular season, and the Warriors’ reward to open the playoffs is a rematch of last season’s Western Conference finals against the Houston Rockets. It’s a matchup of the game’s two best scorers this season — Stephen Curry and James Harden. The Warriors are 12-1 in their last 13 against the Rockets and Curry has sizzled in those games, shooting 54 percent from the field and 50 percent from three-point range.

2. The Spurs This was the first season in NBA history where two teams won at least 80 percent of their games. Meet the other one. San Antonio went 67-15 — tying for the seventh-best record in the history of the league — and finished six games behind the Warriors in the Western Conference. If there’s a franchise that would enjoy having such a year somehow stay off the radar, it’s the Spurs. San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich managed his players’ minutes to perfection again, with no one averaging more than 33 per night. Anything less than a WarriorsSpurs Western Conference finals would seem disappointing.

3. Tim Duncan He merits his own mention for this reason: Duncan has a chance to play in more postseason victories than anyone in the history of the NBA. He’s been in 151 so far in his legendary career with the Spurs. Only Derek Fisher (161), Robert Horry (155) and Kareem AbdulJabbar (154) have played in more wins at this time of year.

4. LeBron James In 10 previous trips to the playoffs, James has reached at least the second round all 10 times.

His teams (Cleveland, then Miami, then Cleveland again) are a staggering 40-7 in first-round games, and James is on a personal 13-game winning streak in those opening matchups. James just finds ways to lift his game in the playoffs, playing huge minutes. And consider this one: Among players in this postseason, no one has more assists in their playoff career than James.

5. Hornets-Heat This is a logical pick to be the most intriguing first-round series, for plenty of reasons. For starters, both teams finished with 48-34 records and come from the same division, though Miami’s 48-34 worked out to a No. 3 seed and Charlotte’s 4834 got the Hornets the No. 6 seed. But since the All-Star break, these have been two of the five hottest teams in the NBA. Charlotte was 21-8 since the break, third-best in the league behind Golden State (25-5) and San Antonio (22-7). The Heat are 19-10 in that span, behind only the Warriors, Spurs, Hornets and Toronto (219).

6. The Durant watch This season has been one long countdown to Kevin Durant Watch 2016, otherwise known as what the Oklahoma City standout will do this summer when free agency arrives. Durant has gotten the questions plenty of times this season, and when — or if, more accurately — the Thunder fall behind in a postseason series it’s a safe bet speculation will ramp up quickly about how what’s going on in these playoffs will influence the decision he makes in July. This will be especially true if the Thunder, the No. 3 seed out West, get into early trouble.

7. Raptors’ drought This has been the best regular season in Toronto history, a 56-26 mark that got the Raptors the No. 2 seed in the East. But this

season’s real goal for the Raptors has been finally getting some playoff success. Toronto was swept out of the first round last year, has lost its last five opening-round series and has reached the East semifinals once — in 2001. It’s not exactly an easy draw for Toronto, which gets Indiana in the first round. The Pacers have won their last three opening-round series.

8. Close games Makes sense, given that the best teams tend to make for better matchups. Last year, 59 percent of the playoff games were decided by no more than 10 points.

Having said that, there were only two Game 7’s last year, and the Los Angeles Clippers were in both — they beat San Antonio in the first round, and lost to Houston in the second round.

9. Rookie struggles It’s hard enough for rookies to get through the rigors of an 82-game regular season as it is, which might explain why it hasn’t exactly been common of late for a first-year guy to put up big postseason numbers. Only two players in the last five postseasons — Harrison Barnes and Kawhi Leonard — have capped their rookie years with 100 points or more in the playoffs. And no rookie has come up with 200 points in a postseason since Miami’s Dwyane Wade had 234 back in 2004.

10. Awards time Here’s a tip: When the NBA schedules a “major announcement” with one of its teams over the next few weeks, odds are someone from that team is about to pick up a big award. Stephen Curry is expected to be the MVP for the second straight year, perhaps unanimously. Minnesota’s Karl-Anthony Towns also seems like a lock for rookie of the year honors. But a number of the races — coach of the year in particular — figure to be wide open. Awards are revealed periodically throughout the postseason.

FSHS track 7th, LHS 9th Azubuike CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

At Free State High’s annual Barrier Breakers meet, the coaches come up with specific marks or times in each event that are considered the goal for every athlete to reach.

In the girls pole vault Friday at FSHS, the target height on the sheet read: 8 feet.

Firebirds senior Callie Hicks watched for roughly 45 minutes while other vaulters shot for and eclipsed the barrier, then took her first stab at the event by clearing 10 feet, 6 inches.

“Yeah, I was fine,” Hicks said, with a smile, after scoring one point for her team and earning a Barrier Breakers medal, just like every vaulter who turned out a mark of 8 feet or better at the uniquely scored meet — won by Olathe East’s girls and boys.

Vaulting didn’t always come so easily for Hicks, who began competing in the event as a sophomore, following prompting and encouragement from some of her peers in gymnastics.

“I think this meet is a really great thing that’s kind of unique to our school,” Hicks said of Barrier Breakers, in which the FSHS girls and boys finished seventh. “And just with the barrier, I think it’s a good way for athletes to set goals for themselves. As a pole vaulter, it’s a pretty good feeling when you start scoring points for your team.”

Hicks, who committed to Kansas University track earlier this week, has done so with ease this season. Friday, she had the top mark of 11 feet.

She elected to skip 11-6 and give 12 feet a crack

FREE STATE HIGH SOPHOMORE MALIA KEMA CLEARS 4-8 in the girls high jump Friday at FSHS. before coming up just short in her first-place performance at the unconventional meet.

“I guess I could’ve backed off a little bit,” Hicks said of her gutsy choice on her home-field runway, “but I was feeling extra energized.”

The same could be said of Lawrence High senior Caroline Dykes after she set a personal record of 5-4 in the girls high jump.

LHS placed ninth in the team standings.

“The last few meets I’ve been trying to get 5-4, so I’m really happy that I made it,” said Dykes, who had been painfully close to bettering her previous mark of 5-2. “I was ready to just get my PR and move on to the next one.”

Indeed, Dykes nearly went ahead and delivered a personal record on the spot, clearing the bar at 5-5, but just bumping it out of place with a shoulder, her backside or the back of her knee.

Now Dykes, who also competed in the triple jump (30-11.5) and 300 hurdles (49.75), doesn’t think 5-6 is too far away for her.

“I always want to push myself to get better and beat my previous goal,” the LHS senior said.

Another LHS senior, J’Mony Bryant, set a personal record of 10.76 sec-

onds (stopwatch-timed, following issues with Free State’s timing system at the meet) in the 100-meter dash, after entering as the ninth seed.

“I’m usually in the fast heat,” said Bryant, who went on to finish sixth, behind teammate and fellow senior JD Woods’ first-place sprint of 10.41.

“When Coach (Jack) Hood told me, I was, like, ‘Why they underestimating me?

I’ve been running this same speed the whole year.’ I did what I had to do.”

Bryant said the Lions’ sprinters, who still think they should have brought home a Class 6A state championship in the 4x100 last season, constantly push each other to get better at practices.

“Last year we were the fastest team going into state, we won our prelims, and we were in lane four for the finals,” Bryant said, before pausing. “Stuff happened. Now we’re trying to bounce back from that, get right back in lane four and finish the race like we should have.”

Bryant, Woods, sophomore Jalen Dudley and junior Trey Moore sped past the competition at Free State to take first in the 4x100 (42.82), with Woods taking off down the straightaway on the final leg.

“I was really excited about it because Josh is a good player. He’s a tough kid to play against. He’s a guy that demands a lot of attention from opposing teams. I just feel like he’s a really good fit for Kansas.”

Zagsblog lists Nigeria native Azubuike at 290 pounds. He told the website he wants to lose 20 pounds.

“When I spoke to (KU coach) Bill Self, (he said) I really have a good chance of coming in and starting right away as a freshman,” said Azubuike, who averaged 16.9 points and 9.7 rebounds his senior season at Potter’s House.

The Firebirds (9-1) scored six runs in the third inning with the help of a few errors. Junior third baseman Zion Bowlin hit a leadoff double, then scored on a sacrifice fly by sophomore outfielder Kyle Abrahamson.
