Massive new cuts in store Brownback plans another big slash in response to sour revenue projections

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration is proposing to cut $112.8 million in state spending out of what’s left in the current fiscal year, with possibly even more cuts in the next fiscal year that begins July 1, in order to balance the state budget in the wake of sagging state Short over revenues. next two years At the same time, though, Budget Director Shawn Sullivan dismissed the idea, now endorsed by a large In cuts proposed number of Republican this fiscal year lawmakers, of scaling back some of the tax cuts Brownback championed in 2012 and 2013.

“We hear all the time of businesses that have moved here,” Sullivan said in defense of those tax cuts. “We believe they have positively affected the economy.”

The proposed cuts are the administration’s response to a new report issued Wednesday in which state budget officials lowered their estimate of how much revenue the state will take in this year and next

Yes, Lawrence is experiencing a hotel boom, and it appears to be continuing. I’ve learned plans are in the early stages for a new hotel to be built on the site of the old Ramada Inn near Sixth and Iowa streets.

Nav Patel, a principal with Kansas City-based Marquee Hospitality, has confirmed that his group has purchased the former Ramada Inn site at 2222 W. Sixth Street. If you don’t remember the Ramada, you evidently didn’t partake in my wedding buf-

Patel said plans haven’t yet been finalized, but he expects the new hotel to have 90 to 100 rooms. He said the group primarily is focusing on bringing either a Hilton or Marriott brand to the location.

“We want to put a nicer hotel in Lawrence,” Patel said. “We think there is good demand there. It is a good intersection. You make clawhorn@ljworld.com one turn and you go to the fet in 1999.

set out to organize a voter registration drive to motivate people “to be part of the solution.”

“You have so many people who complain about how the world is, or the things going on in society, who are just watching TV, but then there’s not any action behind any of the things they’re saying,” Johnson said. “It makes no sense to me to want change so bad, yet put no action behind any of the words you speak.”

The registration drive will be held Saturday at three locations: the downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market, Watson’s Barbershop and PTB Gym. It will run from 7 to 11 a.m. at the farmers market, located off the 800 block of New Hampshire Street, and from noon to 4 p.m. at Watson’s, at 925 Iowa St., Suite K, and PTB Gym, 940 E. 28th St. Johnson’s registration drive, which is open to any unregistered voter, is targeted especially toward the local black com-

arts and event center to support the school’s expanded visual and performing arts classes, Romero said.

About 300 students in preschool through eighth grade attend St. John, and the school expanded arts education for all students this school year. In addition to regular art classes for younger students, the school now offers five advanced art electives per semester at the middle school level, such as textiles, printmaking and photography. As far as performing arts, students can participate in band, orchestra, vocal choir, hand bell choir and theater.

Previously, the parttime arts program that was offered was “more in line of crafts,” said Principal Patricia Newton.

“I think every organization looks for a niche, what makes it special,” Newton added. “And of course, obviously we’re Catholic, but our families really appreciate the visual arts, the performing arts, so we’ve really tried to work on that and really go with it.”

Newton said the shift toward providing better arts education began a couple of years ago.

At that time, the school would hire a traveling artist to come in and do a project with the students, and several parents requested more art

munity, she said.

Talking to those in the community, Johnson said she was surprised to learn some people had never exercised their right to vote.

She also wants to use the drive to educate people about who can vote and when. She noted felons could vote in Kansas after serving their term of incarceration plus parole and probation. Kansans who are 17 years old but turning 18 by the next general election are also allowed to register — something many aren’t aware of, she said.

Mostly, Johnson wants people to exercise their voting rights, not only in this upcoming election but also in local and state elections going forward — as she has for 14 years.

“This is my first time stepping forward like this,” Johnson said. “I just want to do my part.

I want to see change. If somebody else isn’t doing it, and I feel like this is something that needs to happen, maybe I’m the one who needs to start it.”

be included in the regular curriculum. As a result, the school ended up hiring one of the visiting artists to work full-time, Newton said.

The art show will put all forms of student art on display. The show includes work by students in preschool through eighth grade such as scarves, stationery, tiles and hand-painted pots, Romero said. Art sales will benefit the fundraising campaign for the new arts center.

The school and the church already have raised about $2.6 million for the project, and construction is set to begin in January, Romero said.

Renovations will convert what is currently the school’s gym into the arts center. Plans for the center include a stage and seating, lighting and sound systems, catering kitchen and a permanent display area for student artwork.

New construction will include a full-sized gym at the corner of 12th and Kentucky streets, where a house owned by the church currently stands.

The house was formerly the Sisters of Charity Convent, but Romero said it has been used exclusively for parish offices since the last nun recently retired. The house will be relocated alongside the existing parish offices on Vermont Street, and both will be renovated.

year by $228.6 million.

That includes a $93.9 million reduction for the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, and another $134.7 million for the new fiscal year that begins July 1.

Looking only at tax revenue coming into the state, the new forecast is $347.8 million below the previous estimate, which was released in November.

But that figure is offset by increases in other nontax revenue sources, as well as previously-approved transfers into the general fund from other funds.

Raney Gilliland, who heads the Legislature’s nonpartisan Research Department, said the new, lower estimates reflect a more pessimistic forecast of the Kansas economy overall, citing depressed prices for agricultural commodities as well as oil and gas.

He also said officials have lowered their expectations about growth in Kansas employment and personal income.

“And then you couple that with some of the overall weakness in the worldwide economy and some unknown factors, all of those factors are included, in addition to a list of many other factors, that are considered in the revenue-estimating process,” he said.

The biggest contributors to the lowered estimates were the forecasts for individual income taxes, which officials lowered by $233 million over both fiscal years, and retail sales taxes, which were lowered by $60 million.

Overall, the new forecast predicts total revenues flowing into state coffers to be just over $6 billion this year, or 2.4 percent more than in Fiscal Year 2015, and almost $6.2 billion in the next fiscal year.

By law, both the governor and Kansas legislators are required to use those estimates in crafting the state’s budget each year.

At a Statehouse news conference, Sullivan outlined three options for balancing the budgets for both fiscal years.

All three options include extending for another year the 3 percent “allotment” cut to state universities, which Brownback ordered for the current fiscal year in response to monthly revenue shortfalls in February. That amounts to more

than $17 million each year for all six state universities, including more than $4 million each year for Kansas University and $3.2 million for the KU Medical Center.

All three options also include sweeping $70 million this year and $115 million next year out of the state highway fund. That represents virtually all of the general sales tax revenue that is currently earmarked for highways, and it would mean delaying all future highway expansion projects that are slated as part of the 10-year transportation plan known as TWorks that lawmakers first authorized in 2010.

That would not affect the ongoing South Lawrence Trafficway project or the “Gateway” project in Johnson County because contracts for those have already been awarded, Sullivan said.

In addition to those measures, Brownback’s “Option 1” calls for selling off part of the state’s interest in future tobacco settlement money to raise an estimated $158 million in the next fiscal year, a process known as “securitization,” which lawmakers have previously dismissed out of hand.

Sullivan said the plan calls for keeping roughly $42 million a year in tobacco money, which is currently used to fund children’s programs, including early childhood education and health screenings. And while he conceded it would represent only “one-time money” and would not address the structural shortfalls in the state budget, he said it would be enough to give lawmakers time to address those structural issues through savings and efficiencies that were recommended in a recent report by the consulting firm Alvarez & Marsal.

Still, advocates for those children’s programs said they oppose any attempt to securitize the tobacco settlement.

“Why would we permanently destroy our state’s thriving legacy for early childhood education in exchange for a temporary, one-time budget fix that does nothing to solve the problem?” asked Shannon Cotsoradis, president and CEO of the advocacy group Kansas Action for Children. “Kansas babies and toddlers didn’t create this budget crisis, and they shouldn’t be forced to pay for it.”

Sullivan called Option 1 the governor’s preferred option, but he offered two

L awrence J ournal -W orld other scenarios that would likely stir even more controversy.

Under Option 2, in addition to the higher education and highway cuts, Brownback proposes delaying the scheduled repayment of about $92 million, plus interest, to the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System, which Brownback delayed earlier this month in the wake of another monthly revenue shortfall in March.

And under Option 3, he proposes across-the-board spending cuts of 3 percent to 5 percent for all state agencies, including K-12 education and Medicaid.

The cuts to education would not include state aid for bond and interest payments or for “equalization aid” mandated by the Kansas Supreme Court.

But it would affect the general block grants that schools now get and would raise new questions about whether the state is providing adequate funding for schools, as required under the Kansas Constitution.

“I’m sure the Legislature would need to consider that,” Sullivan said.

Kansas Democrats were quick to criticize the governor’s plan.

“I think the first thing we should consider is changing the name of our state to the State of Denial, because that’s what this is all about,” said Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka. “They are denying that the tax experiment has been an abject failure, and it’s caused this ongoing budget crisis that we’re in.”

“None of the three options proposed by Gov. Brownback address the underlying problem — a lack of revenue,” said House Minority Leader Tom Burroughs, of Kansas City. “In fact, these short-term ‘fixes’ create a larger long-term problem. Kansans are going to be paying for the mistakes of the Brownback administration for years to come. The only question is how much it will cost.”

The House and Senate budget committees will begin reviewing the new budget numbers and consider the governor’s three options when they get together today and Friday.

Those meetings come in advance of the full Legislature returning to the Statehouse next Wednesday for the start of their wrap-up session.

Recruiting top physician scientists to the team is a high institutional priority. l A $2 million matching gift for the recruitment of a researcher specializing in hematological malignancies and immunotherapy, in concert with Children’s Mercy Hospital. l $2 million in support of the Institute for Advancing Medical Innovation, which aims to discover and develop pharmaceuticals and diagnostics with a

clear path to market.

Nationwide, there are 69 NCI-designated cancer centers, according to the National Cancer Institute. Of those, 45 have obtained Comprehensive Cancer Center status.

KU’s NCI designation quest has spanned decades.

KU first applied in 1974, and was denied. Work began anew in the early 2000s, with former KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway making NCI designation the university’s top research priority in 2005.

Achieving NCI designation in 2012 meant Kansas and area cancer patients would have close-to-home access to treatments and clinical trials only available at NCI-designated centers, and the federally funded research would be a boon to the state and local economy, leaders said at the time.

The Comprehensive Cancer Center designation will open doors to further expand research funding, related economic benefits and cancer care, according to KU Endowment.

“The KU Cancer Center provides local patients the assurance they are receiving the most advanced cancer treatments and availability to clinical trials,” Bill Hall, president of the Hall Family Foundation, said in the news release. “We are pleased to join with so many others who have supported the KU Cancer Center and particularly the voters who approved the Research Triangle Tax.” The Johnson County Education and Research Triangle tax (JCERT),

passed by voters there in 2008, helped fund the KU Clinical Research Center in Fairway, according to the Johnson County Education Research Triangle website. It brings in about $15 million a year for higher education initiatives in the county.

The $8 million gift counts toward KU Endowment’s current fundraising campaign, Far Above: The Campaign for Kansas.

nancially to continue to serve our community well into the future,” said LMH president and CEO Gene Meyer in a written statement about the audit.

“We are very concerned about the state not adopting Medicaid expansion and the ongoing decreases in reimbursement from payers. We must continue to improve our performance to address these challenges.”

The audit also showed: l The hospital ended 2015 with $18.2 million in

net operating income, a $6 million increase from 2014. l There were 1,210 births at LMH in 2015, up from 1,119 in 2014. l Emergency visits totaled 38,969 last year, up from 37,222 in 2014. l LMH is paying 7.3 percent more in employee salaries, wages and benefits in 2015 than in 2014. l Major costs in 2015 were $1.8 million for new MRI equipment and $1.2 to finish a fourth floor renovation.

In other business:

l The board of trustees will make its nomination next week for who should take over as LMH president and CEO. Three final candidates visited Lawrence this month, met with city leaders, and sat for interviews with a committee formed to hire the next CEO. Cindy Yulich, chair of the board of trustees, said the committee is gathering feedback from everyone who met with the candidates. On Monday, the board of trustees will hold

a closed special meeting to make its decision.

At that point, negotiations will begin with whomever the board selects.

The names of the final three candidates won’t be released. An announcement about the new CEO

will be made once negotiations are finalized, which could be as early as late next week.

The new CEO will replace Meyer, who is retiring May 31.

After running, Back said he returned to the home, stole the truck and drove to Oskaloosa.

While Back told detectives he swung his knife because he felt threatened, prosecuting attorney Amy McGowan argued in her opening statement on Tuesday that Lautenschlager’s wound is more consistent with a penetration and slicing motion.

tion took place.

Throughout the evening and morning, the mood between Back and all others present could have been characterized as calm, McCarty said, though Back was frustrated he couldn’t find his property, he added.

Throughout the evening and into the morning McCarty said he and others smoked methamphetamine.

After returning home to Oskaloosa, McCarty told jurors he heard news of Lautenschlager’s death and was gathered outside his home with two friends discussing the morning’s events when Back walked up to them.

Back also began to speak about the morning, McCarty said. He told the three he sliced someone’s throat, using his hands to

demonstrate blood flowing from his neck.

“I took that as what happened in Lawrence, what he described,” McCarty said. “The whole mood changed. I became afraid for my family and their safety.”

One of McCarty’s friends then gave Back a ride away from the home, McCarty said.

The stolen truck was found near a Bio-Foods meat packing plant in Jefferson County on May 26, 2015. No evidence of blood or any knives were found inside the vehicle, police testified.

Back’s trial will continue today at 9 a.m.

Final Foundation Professor has industrial background

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

With the hiring of the final professor, Kansas University has filled its slate of a dozen Foundation Distinguished Professors.

The initiative, enabled by state funds, aimed to recruit 12 “eminent” faculty members to support the university’s strategic initiatives.

The final professor, announced Tuesday, is Mark Shiflett. He’s scheduled to join the KU department of chemical and petroleum engineering in August and will conduct research at KU’s Center for Environmentally Beneficial Catalysis (CEBC), according to KU. Unlike fellow Foundation Distinguished Professors, Shiflett has spent most of his career in industry instead of academia.

Since 1987 Shiflett has worked Shiflett at DuPont, where he currently is a technical fellow for DuPont Central Research and Development.

Shiflett’s research interests center on separations, ionic liquids and green chemistry, according to KU. His work has led to the development of three

Foundation Professors KU’s 12 Foundation Distinguished Professors and their departments are: • Victor Agadjanian, sociology • Beth Bailey, history • Chris Beard, ecology and evolutionary biology • James Bever, ecology and evolutionary biology • Cecilia Menjívar, sociology • Dennis O’Rourke, anthropology • William Picking, pharmaceutical chemistry • David Roediger, American studies and history • Christophe Royon, physics and astronomy • Mark Shiflett, chemical and petroleum engineering (August 2016) • Steven Soper, chemistry (July 2016) • Yong Zhao, educational leadership and policy studies (August 2016) environmentally safe refrigerant mixtures for DuPont, one of which has generated more than $1 billion in revenue.

He holds 44 patents, has several patent applications pending, and recently founded a company that manufactures bioderived lubricants for the cycling industry, according to KU. On the academic side, Shiflett has been an adjunct professor at the University of Delaware since 2011, teaching courses including chemical engineering laboratory classes and junior- and seniorlevel research courses,

according to KU. He has published more than 70 scholarly articles and is a reviewer for a number of chemical engineering research journals.

He’s expected to apply both industry and academic experience at KU’s Center for Environmentally Beneficial Catalysis, which cites its mission as developing cost-competitive chemical manufacturing processes that prevent waste and conserve natural resources, using an industry-focused approach that helps push research discoveries toward commercialization.

County: Faith group shouldn’t dictate justice council’s agenda

By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

Douglas County commissioners told two Justice Matters members at the commission’s meeting Wednesday that the newly formed Criminal Justice Coordinating Council should make its own decisions on needs and membership.

In remarks to commissioners during reserved public comment time, the Rev. John McDermott, co-president of Justice Matters, asked that commissioners support recommendations concerning the county’s criminal justice review, which the organization agreed on at its annual Nehemiah Action Assembly on April 13.

McDermott asked for support on two Justice Matters proposals: adding an expert in race and

criminal justice issues to the council, and hiring an outside consultant to investigate options to divert people from time in the county jail.

Randy Krehbiel, a retired social worker who has researched criminal justice and incarceration issues for Justice Matters, said such an outside review would help gain the public’s confidence the county had “looked under every rock” for alternatives to jail expansion.

In their responses, commissioners said the county’s 19-month review of the county’s criminal justice system did involve expert, outside consultants in Margaret Severson and Jason Matejkowski — two doctorate-level professors with the Kansas University School of Social Welfare.

Signups open for summer volunteer program for youth First Bell A

local volunteer program is offering youths a way to stay busy this summer by helping the community.

Summer of Service lets participants volunteer with several local organizations over an eightweek period. The program is run by the Sunrise Project and open to youths ages 12 to 18. A donation of $25 per week is requested, but not required, in order to participate.

As part of the program, participants sign up for a specific volunteer project.

Each project is a week long, and volunteers will help out Monday through Friday for three hours per day. There is one project each week in June and July, and participants can sign up to help with multiple projects if they would like.

The following organizations will host projects: Habitat for Humanity, school gardens, Ballard Community Services,

Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

Community Shelter, Just Food, Hidden Valley Camp, Family Promise, Humane Society and the Sunrise Project.

New this year, youths can also sign up for Advocacy Week, to be held July 18-22. Participants will work with various organizations to learn to create positive social change.

For more information, email programs@ sunriseprojectks.org.

— This is an excerpt from Rochelle Valverde’s First Bell column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

Council now needed time to digest the findings, commissioners said, noting the council has only met once and was unable to get through its planned agenda at that April 6 meeting.

“My thinking is let it have time to work and rely on the people selected to help us,” County Commission Chairman Jim Flory said. “The council may say it needs more information and ask for experts. We don’t want to micromanage what it needs. Let its members tell us what it needs, and not have Justice Matters decide.”

The Coordinating Council will next meet at 11 a.m. Tuesday at the County Commission chamber in the Douglas County Courthouse.

BRIEFLY Cordley evacuated for 1 hour after alarm A fire alarm at Cordley Elementary School Wednesday morning caused about an hour-long evacuation of the school, at 1837 Vermont St. The alarm sounded after a sprinkler in the school’s kitchen went off, according to district spokeswoman Julie Boyle.

Boyle said there was no fire, and that it appears that a sprinkler in the kitchen may have malfunctioned.

Firefighters with Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical responded to the alarm about 10:15 a.m., and Boyle said students were able to reenter the building shortly after 11 a.m. There was no water damage in the school’s kitchen, she said.

Parents of students at the school were notified of the evacuation.

Annoyed wife forced to handle dog, neighbors Dear Annie: Two years ago, my husband bought a dog from a breeder. It is a designer dog that’s supposed to be hypoallergenic, since I have very bad allergies to dogs.

Here’s the problem: We didn’t know at the time that the dog was part of a litter that came from our neighbor’s dog. The mother still lives with our neighbors and they like to come around every day and take our dog for a walk. Our dog loves them so much that he often crosses the electric fence when he sees his mom outside. If he’s tied up, the neighbors will come by and just untie him. This is a major annoyance. Worse is that when they take him for a walk, I have to go to their place to pick him up after, and the neighbor tries to make me feel guilty for not

Then leave him there.

You know the dog is being well cared for, and your husband can pick him up when he gets home. That way, you get to relax, you don’t have to visit your critical neighbor, and your husband becomes more responsible for the dog — which is what can happen when one person in a relationship makes a unilateral decision that negatively affects the other.

Stoner spoof channels ‘Bill & Ted’ The search for the elusive stoner audience grows more audacious and unsubtle. The spoof miniseries “Time Traveling Bong” (9:30 p.m., Comedy Central, TV-14) mixes obvious half-baked references with riffs on slacker indifference and under-education, blending them with brazenly silly, low-budget historical re-enactments.

Stars Ilana Glazer and Paul W. Downs were mere toddlers when “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” hit screens.

They capture the essence of that project, as well as “Hot Tub Time Machine,” “Pineapple Express” and a little of the Hulu series “11.22.63” with this silly fantasy.

“Bong” is at its best when the principals bicker in the present day. When they get bogged down in the reality of a Puritan village or the dawn of man, “Bong” reveals its rather flimsy nature.

But you don’t have to invest too much time because it’s only three episodes long. “Bong” debuted last night, 4/20. Comedy Central will recap the first two “Chapters” on Friday (8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m.) before the third and final installment.

O The fourth season of “Inside Amy Schumer” (8 p.m., Comedy Central, TV-14) kicks off with a spoof of the just concluded ad campaign featuring “the Most Interesting Man in the World.” Schumer turns it into a savage commentary on gender expectations and double standards, revealing the fate of a woman who tries to live up to the lifestyles of men featured in the typical beer commercial.

O Ten compete to be the last contestant left on remote Vancouver Island as “Alone” (8 p.m., History, TV-14) enters its second season. In place of “Survivor”-like backstabbing and alliance-making, participants are competing largely against themselves and their own sense of fatigue and isolation.

O Ragnar’s forces set their sight on Paris on the 10th episode, the finale of the first half of the fourth season, of “Vikings” (9 p.m., History, TV-14).

Tonight’s other highlights O A crash victim may have been an abused activist on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14).

O A shooting victim needs surgery on “Grey’s Anatomy” (7 p.m., ABC, TV-14).

O Red helps a mystery woman on “The Blacklist” (8 p.m., NBC, TV-14).

O Olivia wants to put the brakes on her own scheme on “Scandal” (8 p.m., ABC, TV14).

O “The Eighties” (8 p.m., CNN) recalls the collapse of the Soviet Union.

O Random killings may share a perpetrator on “Rush Hour” (9 p.m., CBS, TV-14).

For Thursday, April 21: This year you could experience a lot of high-voltage surprises, which certainly will keep your life exciting. More often than not you will see both sides of an argument.

Go beyond that and see the core issue. Others play a key role in your year. If you are single, your animal magnetism soars. If you are attached, the two of you often kiss and make up.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) +++ Some of you sense unusual vibrations or seem to know when the unexpected is about to occur. Tonight: All smiles.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Get a head start. You have a lot to squeeze in, and sooner or later a snafu is likely to appear. Tonight: You just might be happiest at home.

and hit it off quickly.

The guy moved in with her and took control.

She supports him financially. Yet she said that her only problem is his sexual demands, including bringing in another woman to join them. She wanted your advice.

Annie, is this woman so insecure that she can’t see the whole picture?

She must like the way she’s living or she would have dumped this fasttalking bozo a long time ago. I may not have been the perfect husband, but I still pray that we’ll stay married for many more years to come. I know a good thing when I see it. Glad to say, I’ve only been married once. — Life is Good

States should rethink open primaries

EDITORIALS

No rain?

This year’s Kansas Relays will welcome a new invitational event and maybe some sunshine.

H

ow can it be? The Kansas Relays are this weekend, and the forecast calls for almost no chance of rain in Lawrence.

As of Wednesday, the only rain in the forecast was 10 percent or less for today.

That means the chances are good that a new pole vault event will go off as scheduled this evening in a west Lawrence parking lot. The prospects are even better for Friday’s downtown shot put event and the bulk of the competition, which will be held at Rock Chalk Park.

The invitational shot put event has become a popular Relays tradition in downtown Lawrence. This year, 10 athletes, including eight who are ranked among the top 20 throwers in the world, will be on hand for the competition, which is scheduled for 6 p.m. Friday. Eighth Street between Massachusetts and New Hampshire streets will be closed to traffic to accommodate the event, which usually draws large crowds of spectators both on ground level and in buildings that surround the venue. It’s a fun evening that brings many people to downtown Lawrence to watch the athletes and then enjoy all that the area has to offer.

The success of the shot put competition inspired Relays organizers to take another event out of Rock Chalk Park and into the community. The invitational “street vault” is planned tonight in the parking lot on the southwest corner of Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive.

A runway and pit will be installed in the lot and the public is invited to attend.

Competitors will include a couple of former NCAA champion vaulters.

Decathlon and heptathlon competitions began at Rock Chalk on Wednesday and a full slate of college and high school events is scheduled through Saturday evening, ending with a fireworks show at 8 p.m.

This is the 89th edition of the Kansas Relays and the third year the event will be held at Rock Chalk Park. We welcome all the track and field athletes to Lawrence and hope they and their fans enjoy the new venue and public events, as well as the long tradition of the Kansas Relays.

“

Trump’s campaign to discredit the GOP would benefit from any attempts, whatever their motivations or consequences, to rewrite convention rules now …” rings around his ramshackle campaign in Colorado Springs, Colo., and Casper, Wyo. They met to select, by settled rules comprehensible to all who can read, delegates to the Republican National Convention. They selected so many sympathetic to Ted Cruz that Trump has declared the system in both states, and wherever else the diligent are defeating the dilettante, to be “rigged, disgusting, dirty.” Actually, he is having the novel experience of competing in systems that are not rigged.

Voters can only surmise

what Trump is hiding by refusing to release his tax returns, and can only guess how much he is exaggerating his wealth, or how much he has made from the money his father gave him. Voters know, however, his repeated boasts that he has prospered in the New York City real estate business, a Petri dish of crony capitalism, by making lavish payments to political decision-makers: “I give to everybody.

When they call, I give. And you know what? When I need something from them, two years later, three years later, I call them. They are there for me.” And: “As a businessman and a very substantial donor to very important people, when you give, they do whatever the hell you want them to do.”

No wonder Trump, in his New York City parochialism, considers grass-roots politics in Colorado and Wyoming (and Louisiana, South Carolina and elsewhere) mysterious and sinister. His rule-or-ruin approach to the GOP, which this real estate operator is treating like a short-lease rental property, is attempting to de-legitimize any process in which he does not win.

He is theatrically enraged by two things he finds inexplicable and illegitimate — the spirit of federalism and the wisdom of The Federalist Papers. He is offended that states have the right to have different delegate-selection processes. And he is scandalized that some states have chosen processes that establish what the authors of The Federalist Papers, and the Constitution’s Framers, recommended — indirect democracy (the Framers wanted only House members directly elected) that tempers opinion by filtering it through multiple layers of deliberation. Complex delegate-selection processes test candidates’ abilities that are pertinent to governing, including skillful staffing and an aptitude for long-term planning.

Trump’s campaign to discredit the GOP would benefit from any attempts, whatever their motivations or consequences, to rewrite convention rules now, in the middle of a process that all participants began on the assumption that this year’s rules were settled. Next year, however, when this year’s competition is, like Trump, just a fragrant memory, state parties that have open primaries should

Day of reckoning for justice Friday is a day of reckoning for Duane Buck.

That’s the day the Supreme Court will determine whether to hear his appeal for a new sentencing hearing. Buck is on death row in Texas.

It is important to emphasize that he is not seeking a new trial. There’s no question of Buck’s guilt in the 1995 shooting deaths of his ex-girlfriend, Debra Gardner, her friend, Kenneth Butler, and Buck’s stepsister, Phyllis Taylor. No, all he’s asking is to be re-sentenced for the crime.

There is, you see, a law in Texas that says you can’t be sentenced to death unless a jury finds that you represent a future danger, i.e., that you are likely to hurt someone else if left alive. In Buck’s case, psychologist Walter Quijano, a supposed expert testifying for the defense, no less, told jurors Buck represented just such a danger.

Because he is black.

If any of this rings a bell, it’s because I wrote about the case three years ago. If you read that column, you may recall that one of the researchers on whose writings Quijano based his testimony says his work supports no such conclusion.

Indeed, Quijano’s claim was so outrageous that even Buck’s surviving victim and one of his prosecutors think he should get a new hearing.

In 2000, Sen. John Cornyn, who was then Texas’ attorney general, conceded the state was wrong in allowing race to be used as a factor in sentencing.

Quijano had given similar testimony in six cases. The other five defendants, all black or Hispanic, got new hearings. Buck was denied,

“

To deny Buck a new sentencing hearing untainted by bizarre suppositions about the future danger he poses because of his skin color would shred even the pretense of equality before the law.”

based on a flimsy legalism, namely that the offending testimony came not on “cross,” but on direct examination. In other words, it was first elicited by the defense.

People keep telling me I’m wrong to believe the justice system is riddled with racial bias. They tell me the system has nothing against people of color, and that it is only evidence of their own native criminality that such people are stopped, frisked, arrested, tried and incarcerated in wildly disproportionate numbers. People keep promising me the system is just.

And I keep being sickened by stories like this. I keep finding studies like the 2012 report by University of Maryland criminology professor Raymond Paternoster, which said that at the time of Buck’s sentencing, the local DA was three times more likely to seek death for a black defendant than for a white one.

It’s worth noting, by the way, that these predictions of future dangerousness are not exactly unerring. Texas Defender Services, a nonprofit law firm specializing in capital cases, studied the records of 155 death row inmates and found that only 5 percent went on to commit assaults serious enough to warrant more than a BandAid. In a place where you can get written up for saving a seat in the cafeteria or having too many postage stamps, Buck has a clean disciplinary record dating back to 1998.

So Quijano’s testimony was not only racist, but also — pardon the redundancy — wrong.

Look, I don’t like the death penalty. If you know me, you already know that.

But even if I did, I would want to be sure this severest of sanctions was imposed fairly. Plainly, it is not.

And the fact that it is not cannot help but undermine the credibility of the entire system. If we countenance bias at this extremity, what confidence can anyone have in the system’s fairness at any level, down to and including parking tickets?

The racism here is not subtle. To the contrary, it is neon. To deny Buck a new sentencing hearing untainted by bizarre suppositions about the future danger he poses because of his skin color would shred even the pretense of equality before the law. So let us hope the Court does what it should.

Because, yes, Friday is a day of reckoning for Duane Buck. But it’s a day of reckoning for justice, too.

rethink this practice.

It makes parties susceptible to free-floating voters and freebooting candidates who are, like Trump, lightly — if at all — invested in the party’s historic mission and its future. Open primaries are not unconstitutional but they are discordant with a First Amendment value — the freedom of the individual to associate with likeminded people in political parties to advance a particular political doctrine.

Reformers are apt to revive familiar proposals for making the nomination process tidier by instituting four or five rotating (in their places on the nominating calendar) regional primaries. Leave aside the question of whether tidiness, an essentially aesthetic value, is a sensible political goal for a complex continental nation.

But this arrangement, which this year might have quickly nominated Trump, or any future reform must be evaluated in terms of how it would facilitate or impede future Trumps.

Measures to prevent candidacies like his could be his contribution — inadvertent, of course — to the public good.

PUBLIC FORUM

Public trust

To the editor: I recently had to visit Municipal Court to settle a minor infraction, joining the long line of my fellow Lawrencians who were patiently waiting to pay their share to level the scales of justice. We had broken the law and, by paying a fine, were acknowledging our willingness to play by the rules. Our faith in this system entrusted to maintain public order was not strengthened after reading your excellent expose in Sunday’s paper (“Keeping track of tickets”).

We are taught to believe in the impartiality of justice, particularly when enforcing traffic laws. The stop sign, speed limit or DWI regulations should also apply to the rich, well-connected or family members of police.

Otherwise, there would be chaos. The excuses provided by police and city officials as to why certain traffic tickets were dismissed or voided were hardly convincing. The statement by the assistant city manager as to why the city would not respond to a question related to voided/ dismissed tickets without first paying a $100 fee was worthy of a Smarmy Award. Don’t city officials and the police work for the public good?

You don’t have to look very far to see what happens when a community loses faith in its police. My limited experience with the LPD is that they are a proficient and well-trained force. However, even the best professional occasionally makes a mistake. Instead of covering up or denying any error (or charging a $100 fee), the right answer is to acknowledge the blunder, pay — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a whatever fee and move on. columnist for the Miami Herald.

FBI URGES AGENTS TO KEEP SECRETS — FROM EACH OTHER

Bureau doesn’t want surveillance tactics revealed in court Brad Heath @bradheath USA TODAY

The FBI guards its high-tech secrets so carefully that officials once warned agents not to share details even with federal prosecutors for fear they might eventually go on to work as defense attorneys, newly disclosed records show.

WASHINGTON

A supervisor cautioned the bureau’s “technically trained agents” in a memo in 2003 not to reveal techniques for secretly entering and bugging a suspect’s home to other agents who might be forced to reveal them in court. “We need to protect how our equipment is concealed,” the unnamed supervisor wrote.

The records, released this year as part of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, offer a rare view of the extent to which the FBI has sought to keep its most sensitive surveillance capabilities secret, even from others within federal law enforcement. That secrecy remains a com-

mon feature of the FBI’s most sophisticated investigations, including recent cases in which it cracked the encrypted iPhone of one of the shooters in last year’s San Bernardino, Calif., terror attacks and breached the anonymous Tor computer network.

It has also alarmed some lawyers and privacy advocates, who worry that the secrecy makes it difficult for courts to scrutinize the agency’s tactics.

“For the courts to do their jobs, they need to know what they’re being asked to approve,” said Chris Soghoian, the principal technologist for the American Civil Liber-

ties Union. “What we’ve seen time and time again is that when courts do finally learn what they’ve been authorizing, they’re often not very happy about it.”

The newly released memos cir-

culated in the FBI’s Minneapolis field office in 2003. They came to light this year in the midst of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Ryan Shapiro, a doctoral candidate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who seeks information about how the government investigated animal rights activists. The FBI did not release the names of the agents who sent the messages.

The American workforce is getting grayer, and that includes the chief executives at the top of the food chain.

Over the past decade, the number of CEOs ages 65 to 69 nearly doubled to 36, while those ages 70 to 74 increased from nine to 13, according to a survey of Fortune 500 CEOs by management consulting firm Korn Ferry.

Just as older employees stay in jobs out of desire or necessity, some of those occupying the Csuite aren’t eager to head into retirement. The length of time that

executives cling to the leadership reins was brought into sharp focus with the recent drama of former Viacom and CBS executive chairman Sumner Redstone, 92, who stepped down in early February amid concern over his mental competence.

Many of the more distinguished senior leaders’ names are familiar, such as investing guru Warren Buffett, 85, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, and media baron Rupert Murdoch, 85, executive chair-

man of News Corp. and 21st Century Fox. Less so are people such as Leslie Wexner, CEO of L Brands, 78, and Ellen Gordon, 84, who took the top spot at Tootsie Roll last year after her CEO husband, Melvin, died at 95.

Over the past 10 years, the average Fortune 500 CEO age has inched up to 58 from 56, according to Korn Ferry. This reflects the overall aging of the U.S. workforce as Baby Boomers continue working long past traditional retire-

ment age. By 2022, 31% of those ages 65 to 74 will still be working, up from 20% in 2002, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The issues raised by this demographic shift range from the potentially ageist nature of mandatory retirement policies to the need for corporate boards push for succession planning. The balancing act between valuing experience while keeping companies vibrant is bound to grow more contentious as the desire to stay at the helm potentially threatens a younger generation’s ability to take charge.

“It’s about performance, competence and engagement, not chronological age,” says Paul Irving, chairman of the Center for the Future of Aging at the Milken Institute. Age bias against older workers “is absurd and indefensible,” he says. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Supreme Court gives states some leeway on political maps Districts can be drawn so minorities benefit Richard Wolf @richardjwolf USA TODAY

The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Wednesday that states can draw legislative districts with slightly different populations in an effort to benefit minority groups, even if the results help one political party over the other.

The decision signaled a recognition by the court that despite WASHINGTON

its disdain for both racial and partisan considerations, neither violates the Constitution’s “one person, one vote” principle.

“We have made clear that the Constitution, while insisting upon compliance with the principle of one person, one vote, does not demand mathematical perfection,” Justice Stephen Breyer wrote.

It also represented the justices’ third consecutive ruling on political redistricting that has pleased Democrats more than Republicans following a landmark 2013 decision that went the other way — Chief Justice John Roberts’ 5-4 ruling that struck down a key sec-

The Supreme Court upheld Arizona’s legislative redistricting plan.

tion of the Voting Rights Act. The new decision upheld state legislative lines drawn by an independent commission created in Arizona to take the job away from the legislators themselves.

Just last June, the justices had upheld the commission’s creation by a 5-4 vote over the objections of Republican lawmakers who said the Constitution gives that task to state legislatures.

The commission’s 2012 lines were challenged by Republican voters who said they put too many voters in GOP districts and too few in Democratic districts, thereby giving Democratic voters greater electoral clout.

The high court disagreed. Even though the 2013 ruling in Shelby County v. Holder relieved nine states and municipalities in six others, including Arizona, from having to meet Justice Depart-

ment approval for changes in voting procedures because of past racial and ethnic discrimination, the justices said the commission had reason to comply with those rules the year before.

During oral argument in December, justices on both sides of the ideological divide had said the five-member panel tried to draw districts capable of electing minorities, and that was sufficient reason to have population variations approaching 10%.

The ruling will have minimal impact on states, most of which look at political affiliation — and, in many cases, race and ethnicity — in placing voters in districts.

cated tech secrets are hatched — had “expressed concerns about Tech Agents revealing technical details to Case Agents and especially to AUSAs,” using the acronym for assistant U.S. attorneys.

“There have been several instances of AUSAs becoming familiar with our technology, then resigning and becoming defense lawyers.”

As a result, the official warned, “the tech guys may be a little mum about how we’re doing things,” adding officials would “try to get it cleared” if prosecutors wanted a fuller technical briefing.

That approach was “fairly consistent with FBI policy,” said Michael Tabman, the former head of the FBI’s Minneapolis field office.

no need for the case agents or the prosecutors to know how something was done.”

Still, some former prosecutors said they found it troubling that agents would be unwilling to share technical details — particularly in eavesdropping cases that require extensive consultations with Justice Department attorneys. “The fact that somebody may at some point go over to the other side is not a legitimate basis to withhold relevant information,” said Rachel Paulose, who was Minnesota’s U.S. attorney from 2006 to 2008.

FBI spokesman Chris Allen said he could not comment on memos from 2003, but “certainly it is true that details involving sensitive techniques are not widely shared.”

When police began deploying sophisticated cellphone tracking devices, the FBI insisted that they first sign non-disclosure agreements promising not to reveal the technology publicly.

That promise drew a skeptical reaction from courts. Last month, Maryland’s second-highest court ruled that police needed to obtain a warrant before using the devices.

FBI memo

said, “it is self-evident that the court must understand why and how the search is to be conducted.”

A similar issue surfaced this year after the FBI acknowledged it had pierced the anonymous Tor computer network. Agents did that by taking over a large child pornography site and infecting it with malware to identify users.

Special Agent Daniel Alfin described the malware in a court filing as “lines of code that are able to take advantage of a software vulnerability,” but the government has refused to say more.

A federal judge in Tacoma, Wash., ordered the Justice Department to reveal to defense lawyers in one case how that malware worked, so they could challenge evidence the FBI obtained. The department balked, saying in a court filing in March that it was “taking the unusual step of asking this Court to reconsider,” for reasons it asked the court to keep secret. A hearing is scheduled for May.

True enough in the abstract.

But when billions of dollars are at stake, shades of gray matter.

Perhaps the most pressing concern for shareholders is simply whether or not an aging CEO depresses a company’s value.

In a few notable cases, stock prices rose upon the departures of older leaders. When Tootsie Roll’s Melvin Gordon died after leading the company for a halfcentury, the stock rose 7%.

Shares of Viacom rallied after Redstone stepped aside.

Other evidence suggests the wisdom that comes with age can benefit investors.

According to an analysis of S&P Global Market Intelligence data that USA TODAY did last year, shares of companies with the oldest 10 CEOs were up 48.9% on average over a twoyear period ending Jan. 25, 2015, topping the 39.5% average gain of the other stocks in the S&P 1500.

“There are CEOs operating well into their 70s and beyond who are awesome, and you could argue you’re doing the company a disservice by removing them (at 65),” says Thomas Fuller, CEO of C-suite advisory firm Epsen Fuller Group. He is not a fan of the mandatory retirement policies that have been adopted by roughly half of the nation’s largest companies.

Such policies typically require CEOs to step down at 65 and board members to retire at 72.

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act specifically safeguards older workers for being laid off because of age, but the act is not valid for those in executive-level positions.

“In our work, we try and advise boards (hiring CEOs) to take age off the table,” Fuller says.

“Yes, there can be concerns that older CEOs may be more concerned with preserving their legacies. But you could also argue that older, seasoned CEOs will help a company avoid mistakes.”

That’s why succession planning is so critical. Yet some boards are handcuffed by leaders who enjoy controlling interests, such as Redstone and Murdoch.

The smoothest transition?

That’s the one from CEO to chairman, says Bhaskar Chakravorti, associate dean of international business and finance at Tufts University’s Fletcher School. He cites Bill Gates’ move at Microsoft as an example.

“You step back from executive function but continue to lend your pattern recognition skills (while serving as) an effective partner to someone younger,” he says.

Boards not inclined to plan for a handover of power could be forced to do so by activist investors, who may not be as gentle in their approach.

“Maybe five or so years ago, boards would fight activist investors, but now they look to see if

JESSICA B. LIFLAND FOR USA TODAY

maybe a change needs to be made,” says Mark Rogers, corporate governance expert and CEO of BoardProspects.com.

Today, “boards, who are influenced by shareholders, are much more mindful of the ages of CEOs at publicly traded companies,” he says. “You could easily have a case where a 70-year-old CEO is doing a great job, but most boards will still look at that carefully. Even if a lot of that talk won’t play out publicly.”

In the end, the C-suite age vs. experience debate often boils down to a critical element that CEOs and boards alike should watch out for: ego.

When the company’s best interest is in focus, age often takes a back seat as still-sharp 70- and 80-year-old leaders leverage deep expertise to steer a course through rough financial waters.

But any time titanic personal-

ities with long corporate histories factor into the picture, stepping away can become tantamount to professional suicide, something to be rejected even if a company’s future hangs in the balance.

“With people like Redstone and Murdoch and so many others, their persona and personality is so firmly attached to the company itself that quite often the lines get blurred,” says Tufts’ Chakravorti. Many CEOs see their organization as an extension of themselves and find the idea of leaving abhorrent, he says.

He says life wisdom and years of dealmaking acumen aside, “every organization at some point deserves a fresh injection of leadership.”

When President Obama arrives in London late Thursday from his trip to Saudi Arabia, the main chatter here is whether he will wade into the heated debate on whether Britain should vote to leave the European Union.

The president has made no secret of his wish for the United Kingdom to remain in the 28member alliance. Britain will hold a referendum June 23 on whether to remain in AFP/GETTY IMAGES the EU or leave — dubbed Obama Brexit.

“I think his approach will be that if he’s asked his view as a friend, he will offer it, but he will make very clear that this is a matter the British people should decide,” Ben Rhodes, the White House deputy national security adviser, told reporters last week.

Obama will also have ample opportunity to socialize with the royal family during his visit.

The president and first lady will have lunch Friday with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle — the day after the monarch turns 90 — and dine with Prince William, Duchess Kate and Prince Harry at Kensington Palace later that day.

“The phrase special relationship has long been used about the relationship between the U.K. and the U.S. — these two encounters underline just how special the relationship is. These are reunions of old friends,” Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty magazine, told USA TODAY. LONDON

CHINA WARNS OF ‘DANGEROUS’ FOREIGN SPIES

Posters offer women lessons about ‘Love’ and espionage Hannah Gardner

Special for USA TODAY BEIJING To mark China’s first National Security Education Day, a Beijing district put up posters warning women that handsome foreign men may be spies.

Titled Dangerous Love, the comic-book-style panel of posters tells the story of Xiao Li, a young government worker, and David, a red-haired “academic.”

David and Li meet at a dinner party, and he soon begins to woo Li with gifts and flowers. She marvels at her luck.

IN BRIEF SECOND BIG QUAKE HITS ECUADOR

“Having a handsome, romantic, cultured foreign boyfriend is great!” she says in frame six.

David, though, is a foreign spy intent on stealing Chinese state secrets. One day while walking in the park, he asks Li to show him internal government memos to help with his academic work.

“Darling, there shouldn’t be any secrets between us,” he implores.

So over a romantic Western dinner with wine, she hands him a notebook and urges him to return it soon. But the Chinese police catch up with David and soon arrest Li, too.

The final frame shows Li sitting in an interrogation room handcuffed and crying. “‘You are a state employee, yet your ability to keep secrets is concerning. You are suspected of violating our nation’s laws,” a police officer says.

Authorities in the Xicheng district, where the posters appeared, have not explained why the campaign was created. The area is home to Beijing’s financial hub where many foreigners live and work.

Chinese media and people on the Internet largely ignore the Dangerous Love posters, even after the government launched National Security Education Day on Friday to make people aware of security problems in the country.

China frequently runs propaganda and public awareness campaigns — and they are rarely sophisticated.

NEW YORK As Donald Trump declared victory Tuesday to the sounds of Sinatra’s New York, New York, opponents and analysts wondered if the re-emerging Republican front-runner is truly making a new start of it in terms of campaign style.

Trump claimed his easy Empire State win with an unusually short address — eight minutes — that featured more elevated rhetoric and less vitriol, a performance that many analysts attributed to a revamped campaign team that is trying to nail down the GOP presidential nomination.

“My team has been amazing,” Trump said from the lobby of his Manhattan tower, the same venue where he launched his unorthodox campaign back in June.

“It’s actually a team of unity. It’s evolving, but people don’t understand that.”

Avoiding the often rough rhetoric of his stump speeches, Trump referred to his main Republican rival as “Senator Cruz” rather than “Lying Ted.” He outlined the makings of an issues platform that includes blocking bad trade deals and illegal immigration, building up the military, replacing President Obama’s health care law, and stopping companies from moving jobs overseas.

Some of his critics are skeptical of the idea of a new Trump.

Noting that the New York businessman built his campaign around an unscripted, blunt-talking persona, Republican strategist Liz Mair said it’s unclear “whether he will be able to maintain this tone, or indeed if that will be productive for him.”

Early indications Wednesday were that Trump’s new approach may indeed be short-lived.

JOHN MOORE, GETTY IMAGES

Donald Trump kept his remarks short — eight minutes — on Tuesday night after winning the New York primary.

“No shift in tone, message or policy ... is going to erase anyone’s memory of how Trump has been conducting himself.”

Republican strategist Liz Mair

During a rally in Indianapolis, Trump hit on familiar themes in his stump speech, including a reference to “Lying Ted.” At one point, he seemed to delight in pointing out a protester, saying “Get him out of here.”

The founder of an anti-Trump political action committee called Make America Awesome, Mair also cited Trump’s well-known comments about women, Mexican immigrants, Muslims, protesters and others who oppose him: “No shift in tone, message or policy at this point is going to erase anyone’s memory of how Trump has been conducting himself and his campaign for many, many months now.”

Trump’s apparent attempts at a new, lower-key style reflect the

ascendancy of new campaign adviser Paul Manafort, analysts said.

“It’s all Paul,” said Republican pollster Frank Luntz.

Noting that Trump initially hired Manafort as a convention manager, Luntz said that the New York real estate mogul “got smart and hired one of the best in the business. And he’s learned quickly that Paul knows a lot more than conventions.”

Signs of the old Trump occasionally resurface, even during his New York victory speech.

He attacked the media over reports of campaign in-fighting and again ripped the Republican delegate selection process as “crooked” and “rigged.”

And Trump still tweets, posting a message Wednesday taunting Cruz for now falling some 300 delegates behind and arguing that he can prevail in a general election matchup with Democratic front-runner (and fellow New Yorker) Hillary Clinton.

Republican strategist Kevin Madden said voters have been given glimpses of a new Trump before, “only to see him reflexively return to bashing his opponents and everyone else in the party.”

EU claims Google’s operating system stifles competition Kim Hjelmgaard @khjelmgaard USA TODAY

The European Union is lobbing antitrust charges at Google for the second time in two years, this time accusing the tech giant of using its hugely popular Android mobile operating system to MONEYLINE FORD SAYS MUSTANG NOW WORLD’S TOP SPORTS COUPE Ford, which revamped the current Mustang with foreign sales in mind, says the pony car was the world’s best-selling sports coupe last year. About 19,000 out of a total of 141,000 Mustangs were sold outside the U.S. last year. Some of the hottest demand was in Europe, where 16,000 cars were sold.

The 28-nation bloc alleges Google stifles competition by requiring manufacturers to install its search engine and Web browser on mobile devices and by paying manufacturers and carriers financial incentives if they make Google’s search engine the default on those devices.

With Google apps preloaded on devices, Internet users are more likely to continue to see the Google ads that they once viewed on their desktops.

European competition commissioner Margrethe Vestager speaks out against Google Friday in Brussels.

Google says its agreements with manufacturers are voluntary and that rival mobile services are not only available but are popular on Android devices.

At stake for Google: potentially huge fines and dramatic changes to the way it conducts business.

With Internet users spending more and more time on mobile devices, Android is playing an increasingly important strategic role for Google, which bought the tiny company behind the mobile software in 2005 for a reported $50 million.

Today, Android is the world’s dominant mobile operating sys-

tem, running on thousands of screens beyond mobile phones including tablets, televisions, watches, game consoles and car dashboards.

In September, Google said that 1.4 billion Android devices were in active use, and Android powers more than three-quarters of the smartphones in Europe.

With the latest antitrust charges expected and unlikely to hobble Google’s operations in the short term, shares of Google parent company Alphabet barely budged in regular trading on Wednesday, closing down slightly at $752.64.

O

ne longtime lesson of investing is that too much optimism is a bad thing. So you’ll know that the stock market’s recent powerful rally is close to its end when bullishness on Wall Street reaches an extreme —“irrational exuberance,” to use the famous phrase from Nobel Laureate and Yale University professor Robert Shiller.

Fortunately, we’re not there yet, even as the market is closing in on its record highs last May. Wednesday, both the Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor’s 500 index closed at 2016 highs and a little more than 1% from record territory.

By no means do current favorable sentiment conditions guarantee the market will continue rising indefinitely.

The notion that too much optimism is a bad thing comes from an investment theory known as contrarian analysis. Many trace it to the late Humphrey Neill, a Vermont-based investment adviser from a century ago, one of whose books was The Art of Contrary Thinking. Perhaps the most famous line from that book is: “When everyone thinks alike, everyone is likely to be wrong.”

Though you might be inclined to dismiss contrarian analysis as little more than voodoo, it actually makes sense. When bullish enthusiasm reaches an extreme, little sideline cash remains that could otherwise be quickly invested and thereby propel the

GETTY IMAGES/ ISTOCKPHOTO

market even higher. By the same token, at times of extreme pessimism, few skittish investors remain who haven’t already exited the market and gone to cash.

That means there’s little potential selling pressure that could cause the market to sink even further.

To appreciate how subdued market optimism is now, consider the average recommended stock market exposure among several dozen short-term market timers I monitor (as measured by the Hulbert Stock Newsletter Sentiment Index, or HSNSI). This average currently stands at 47%, which means more than half of the typical market timer’s stock market portfolio is in cash.

That’s amazing, considering the Dow is only 1.2% away from setting an all-time high.

The mood in May 2015 was far more upbeat than it is today: The HSNSI that month got as high as 73%, which was one of the highest readings of the last two decades — and 26 percentage points higher than today’s level. Contrarians last summer were therefore not surprised by the market’s subsequent stumbles.

At the stock market’s low this past February, in contrast, the HSNSI fell to minus-31.4%. That negative reading meant the average short-term market timer was actually net short the market —

Average around midFebruary 2016 lows:

-31.4% an aggressive bet that stocks would continue to decline. Sure enough, the market rallied in the wake of that extreme pessimism.

To be sure, with today’s HSNSI

level considerably higher than at the February low, sentiment conditions today aren’t nearly as favorable as they were at the bottom. But they still fall short of excessive optimism, according to Hayes Martin, President of Market Extremes, a contrarianoriented investment consulting firm that focuses on major market turning points.

In an interview, he characterized recent sentiment changes as moving “from deep pessimism to skepticism to moderate optimism and surprise.” So long as the prevailing mood remains at current levels and doesn’t approach the extremes seen in May 2015 at the market’s high, he continued, the rally could very well “go on for longer than generally expected.”

Bear in mind sentiment conditions can change, especially in today’s fast-paced market.

The ideal scenario, from a contrarian perspective, would be for bullishness to remain at relatively restrained levels even as the stock market rises to new highs. In contrast, the rally would be skating on thin ice if stock market timers were to quickly jump onto the bullish bandwagon.

For now, though, the mood on Wall Street is surprisingly subdued, which — according to the logic of contrarian analysis — is a good thing.

Volkswagen set to pay U.S. diesel owners $5,000 Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Volkswagen is said to be close to announcing a deal to compensate U.S. owners of its scandal-afflicted diesel vehicles as the company approaches a critical federal court hearing Thursday without a publicly identified plan to fix those vehicles.

The company is expected to offer individual owners $5,000 apiece, according to a report by German newspaper Die Welt.

The plan could help the embattled German automaker avoid a

trial in San Francisco before U.S. District Court Judge Charles R. Breyer, who had set Thursday as a deadline for Volkswagen to deliver a fix involving vehicles that violate U.S. emissions standards.

Two Volkswagen officials declined to comment on the report.

Kelley Blue Book analysts recently projected the cost of buying back U.S. vehicles involved in the scandal, based on current value, would be $7.3 billion.

Former FBI director Robert Mueller, appointed to negotiate settlements with Volkswagen, told Breyer in March talks were progressing nicely.

Separately, Reuters reported

PATRICK PLEUL, EPA

Volkswagen has also “reached the framework of a deal” to fix cars after EPA regulators rejected a repair plan submitted in January.

“It sounds like the kinds of things that the judge wanted to see,” said Carl Tobias, a product liability law professor at the University of Richmond.

The EPA and California Air Re-

sources Board exposed Volkswagen’s illegal emissions software in September. More than a halfmillion diesel cars and crossovers were rigged to cheat U.S. standards on harmful pollutants.

Breyer told Volkswagen lawyers in March they had until April 21 “to announce a concrete proposal for getting the polluting vehicles off the road,” according to a court transcript.

Volkswagen is facing a torrent of legal challenges over its handling of the emissions crisis, which affects some 11 million vehicles worldwide and is expected to cost tens of billions of dollars in fines or settlements.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

NEW YORK The profits recession was flagged as a big risk this earnings season and was supposed to sink the Dow. The response of the blue chip stock gauge has been anything but bearish since aluminum maker Alcoa kicked off earnings season April 11.

The Dow Jones industrial average — despite the fact earnings for the broad Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index have come in a tad better than expected but are still on track to contract 7.6% in the first quarter — has shrugged off all the earnings negativity and rallied nearly 600 points and more than 3% since earnings season kicked off.

Future profit should quench investors’ thirst Q: Can Coke regain its fizz?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Shares of Coca-Cola took a hit after the company told investors first-quarter adjusted profit fell. Growth going forward is the big question.

Despite reports of the difficulty in selling sugary drinks, investors understand Coke sells a variety of beverages beyond cola. Shares of Coca-Cola are up roughly 10% over the past 12 months, which outperforms the flat performance of the Standard & Poor’s 500 during the same period. Coke shares have benefitted from a trend of investors shifting money into defensive areas, including food and beverage stocks.

Coke’s shares fell 4% Wednesday to roughly $45 a share despite the fact the company reported an adjusted quarterly profit of 45 cents a share, which topped expectations by 2.3%. The problem is that adjusted profit is down 6% from year ago levels, S&P Global Market Intelligence says.

Analysts remain somewhat optimistic on Coke, calling for the stock to be worth $47.29 in 18 months. But so far, 2016 appears to be much of a rebuilding year.

Adjusted profit for the year is expected to drop 2.5% to $1.95 a share, and revenue is seen falling 4% to $42.3 billion.

The key is 2017 — the year investors are expecting profit to grow again by nearly 6%. Revenue, however, is expected to drop every year until 2020.

Uber, Lyft continue to be more popular with business travelers Charisse Jones @charissejones USA TODAY

More business travelers are hopping rides with ride-hailing services such as Uber or Lyft — taking more business away from car rental agencies and the taxi industry, according to a new report.

The number of trips taken with the ride share services by corporate trekkers nearly doubled in the first quarter of this year compared to the same period in 2015, according to expense manage-

Among ride share services, Uber continued to dominate, providing more than 43% of all transactions.

ment company Certify which reviewed more than 9 million receipts and expenses. At the same time, there were 10% fewer

trips taken in car rentals than in the first three months of 2015.

And the number of taxicab rides fell compared to a year ago.

From a 37% share for taxis at the start of 2014, it fell to 25% last year and now has hit 14%. Rides with Uber and Lyft rose to 46% of all trips in the first quarter, up from 42% at the end of 2014.

Most companies now consider ride sharing an acceptable way for their employees to get around when traveling for business, says Bob Neveu, Certify’s CEO. And “It’s convenience and quality” that is increasingly driving business travelers to choose such ser-

vices over cabs.

That convenience can make an Uber or Lyft ride preferable to renting a car. Many “rental car centers are not at the airport, they’re miles away,” Neveu says.

Besides the extra time spent picking up and returning the vehicle, or hunting for gas to avoid paying a steep price for returning a less than full tank, it can be helpful to not have to worry about navigating unfamiliar roads. “If a business traveler is in a city they’re not familiar with ... to let somebody else do the driving while you work in the back seat is a much more efficient use of time.”

Among ride share services, Uber continued to dominate, providing more than 43% of all transactions. But Lyft saw growth as well. And Certify believes Lyft’s role will grow in the wake of a $1 billion infusion from investors such as General Motors.

Recognizing the potential of the corporate travel market, Uber in July 2014 launched Uber for Business, a platform that allows corporate travelers to charge their rides to their businesses.

Employers get trip details directly from Uber, removing the need for paper receipts. Lyft’s “Lyft for Work’’ touts similar convenience.

BURBANK , CALIF. Good luck pitching Jessica Chastain a supportive-wife role.

Chris Hemsworth learned that when he proposed she be his wife in The Huntsman: Winter’s War (in theaters Friday), a prequel to 2012’s Snow White and the Huntsman.

“Chris came up to me,” Chastain, 39, recalls. “It was the first time I met him, at the Critics’ Choice Awards, and he talked to me about it. I said: ‘Listen, you’re great. I loved the first movie, I’d love to work with you — but I’m not interested in playing the wife who sits at home and cheers you on. You know what I mean?’ ” By phone, Hemsworth recalls the scene exactly. “She said, ‘Don’t bother sending it to me unless I get to kick (butt),’ ” he laughs.

“And I said, ‘Oh, we’ll make sure that’s the case.’ And she does.”

Winter’s War turns back fairytale time. Charlize Theron returns to the screen as the evil Queen Ravenna, but instead of sharing the screen with Kristen Stewart’s Snow White, this time it’s Emily Blunt by her side as her once-sweet sister, Freya. When Freya’s infant daughter is murdered, her icy fury is released, and Freya gathers up all the children in the kingdom, including Chastain (who plays Sara), to create an army of child soldiers.

So kind of like a Frozen? “But very twisted,” Chastain laughs.

“Because in Frozen, she loved her sister so much she was afraid she was going to hurt her, so she walled herself away. This one, she walls herself away to conquer and spread pain.”

This is the Huntsman’s origin story, too.

Hemsworth plays a kidnapped childturned-soldier who falls for Sara (against Freya’s orders not to love), and in this script, he’s way outnumbered by powerful women. “There are actually more female roles than male roles in this movie,” Chastain says. “In franchise movies, I can’t think of the last time you had so many (women).”

Despite Ravenna and Freya’s savagery, the tone in the new film is lighter.

DAN MACMEDAN, USA TODAY

GILES KEYTE, UNIVERSAL

Jessica Chastain plays warrior Sara, who faces off against the evil Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) in The Huntsman: Winter’s War.

“The first film was a lot darker, and even my character was depressed and internal,” Hemsworth says. “Whereas there was a lot more comedy (in Winter’s War), and that’s what I wanted to do from the beginning, have it be more fun adventure.”

Despite falling for the Huntsman, Sara is arguably the toughest presence onscreen, and Chastain even dropped her voice an octave to play her. “It’s like, ‘Don’t mess with me. I’m going to hurt you.’ There’s no vulnerability or sensitivity in the way she

addresses life.”

And when Chastain repeatedly battles the 6-foot-3 Huntsman, believing he has betrayed her? “I genuinely was impressed by what she was doing,” Hemsworth says.

Just look out for a little movie magic.

To take on her towering Australian co-star, “I was wearing these shoes that were insane,” says Chastain, who is 5-foot-4.

“The shoe is a wedge, it’s like 41⁄2 inches.”

Move over, Cinderella. Those are fairy-tale fighting heels.

Salma Hayek is the new queen mother in ‘Tale of Tales’ Brian Truitt @briantruitt USA TODAY

Want Salma Hayek in your Italian fairy-tale horror movie?

Tell her she’ll be your queen.

The Oscar-nominated actress wears the crown of a woman willing to go to extremes to have a child in Tale of Tales (in theaters in New York and video on demand Friday, expanding nationwide into May), director Matteo Garrone’s trio of intertwined stories based on the works of 17th-century poet Giambattista Basile that are all seen from a female point of view.

Hayek’s Queen of Longtrellis has to eat the heart of a sea monster — cooked by a virgin, by the way — to become pregnant, but that’s only the start of her tragic tale. In addition, the King of Highhills (Toby Jones) is more adoring of the giant flea he keeps as a pet than the daughter (Bebe Cave) he wants to marry off, and two old sisters (Shirley Hender-

son and Hayley Carmichael) bewitch the womanizing King of Strongcliff (Vincent Cassel).

While she adores period movies about European history, “I always thought to myself, ‘I never get to wear one of those dresses,’ ” Hayek says. “The Mexicans were far away wearing something completely different!”

The actress, 49, talks with USA TODAY about Tales and her presidential candidate of choice:

Q

COULD YOU IDENTIFY WITH THE QUEEN’S MATERNAL INSTINCT?

A: Yes, I didn’t have my girl (daughter Valentina Paloma) until I was 41. Even when you’re young sometimes, you have the fear of ‘Am I going to be able to have kids?’ And then there is the fear of ‘Am I going to find someone to have kids with?!’ (Laughs)

Q

YOU REALLY DIG INTO A STEAMING SEA MONSTER ORGAN. WHAT DID YOU ACTUALLY EAT?

A: They wouldn’t tell me. Maybe

IFC FILMS

Salma Hayek’s Queen of Longtrellis will do just about anything to have a child — and there’s no room for squeamishness. there were some brains in there, combined with some marshmallow soaked in the fake blood and marzipan. I detected some pasta — I asked afterward because it felt like biting into a worm.

Q

WHAT WAS YOUR GO-TO FAIRY TALE AS A LITTLE GIRL?

A: I had a grandmother who was the best storyteller in the world.

She made them telenovela style — sometimes, they were very long and she wouldn’t finish: “Tomorrow, you get the next part.” She could take a couple of weeks on a story, and I really got to experience this lost art in a fantastic way.

Q

YOU SHARED A PICTURE OF YOURSELF AND HILLARY CLINTON ON TWITTER LAST WEEK. IS SHE YOUR CHOICE FOR OUR NEXT QUEEN OF SORTS?

A: She is. I love everything that Bernie (Sanders) stands for — and he’s maybe closest to my personality and what I wish for — but we have a huge responsibility in America and the world. There’s a resilience about (Clinton): She adjusts, she adapts and nothing brings her down. … I would be so happy to see this woman who has been in the shadow of men her whole career come and shine.

Baldwin boasts impressive running tradition

By Tom Keegan Twitter: @TomKeeganLJW

Baldwin City — The bucolic setting lends itself perfectly to training for long distances for both the mind and the body, so maybe that has a little to do with Baldwin High’s phenomenal success in boys and girls cross country and track and field through the years.

“First off is injury prevention,” Kansas Universitybound senior distance runner George Letner said of the advantages of running in the country. “The worst thing you can do is run on It’s harder suralways faces, manbetter run- made surfaces.

The ning out fact that you where the get can out trees are and run on and where surfaces that there’s na- are better you is ture, other for a big thing. than just Other than that, there’s buildings more enjoyeveryment getting where.” out in those areas where it’s more ex— Baldwin’s ploring than Addie Dick just running on streets.”

Addie Dick, a terrific miler who discovered at Baldwin’s first meet of the spring that she is every bit as well suited to twice that distance, manages to outrun monotony while piling up miles.

“It’s always better running out where the trees are and where there’s nature, other than just buildings everywhere,” said Dick, who ran a 5:20.71 in the 1,600 meters last weekend in Wichita. “We’re not just stuck running in town or running on the track for our practices.

Most all of our routes take us out into the country.”

Whereas in many areas of the country the popularity of track and cross country has faded, interest in running in Baldwin has endured and has resulted in the high school dominating.

Baldwin High has won 13 boys and nine girls state titles in cross country. The boys have won three state titles in track and field. The girls have won five state titles in the past six seasons and are loaded again this season.

“Success breeds success, and the kids here are willing to work,” girls coach Ted Zuzzio said. “All we ask them to do is compete and have fun. And we’ve been blessed with some really nice kids and great parent support.”

The Bulldogs are easy to spot at track meets. Look for purple singlets and look toward the front of the pack.

Several Baldwin athletes will be at Rock Chalk Park competing in the Kansas Relays this weekend. For the girls, Dick will run in the 1,600 meters, the 3,200 meters and the 4X800 relay.

Kelsey Kehl, who signed a national letter of intent Monday with Washington State, will compete at the Relays in the javelin and discus. Carlyn Cole, Fayth Peterson, Kyna Smith and Madeline Neufeld posted the fastest 4X400 time of the spring for any school in any classification in the state

KU’s Cozart, Ford granted waivers

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University quarterbacks Montell Cozart and Deondre Ford on Wednesday received word from the Big 12 Conference that their applications for hardship waivers had been accepted.

As a result, both will receive an extra year of eligibility and enter the 2016 season as red-shirt juniors with two years of eligibility remaining.

Before suffering seasonending injuries early, both KU QBs started games under center for the Jayhawks during the 2015 season. Co-

zart, a Bishop Miege High graduate, started three of the first four games, and Ford, a junior-college transfer, started Week 3 at Rutgers.

“It is great to see the Big 12 is giving Montell and Deondre a year back after both of these guys had their junior seasons end prematurely,” KU coach David Beaty said in a news release.

“They have worked tirelessly with our medical staff to get healthy, and we are fortunate to have two more seasons with them in our program.”

With returning eightgame starter Ryan Willis

nursing an injured wrist for the past couple of months, Cozart, who injured his non-throwing, left shoulder during the fourth game of the 2015 season, worked this spring as the No. 1 quarterback on KU’s depth chart.

Being on the top of the depth chart is nothing new for Cozart, who opened each of the past two seasons as KU’s Week 1 starter and has started at least three games during all three of his college seasons to date.

But the uncertainty of whether 2016 would be his last ride was something that weighed on his mind

throughout the past several months.

“If I get that, that’d be a blessing,” Cozart said of the hardship waiver in early March. “But if it is my senior year, I just want to make the most of it and kind of go out with a bang and leave Kansas on the good side of Cozart things.”

Cozart said then that he was 85-90 percent recovered from the severe sprain that kept him out of most of his junior season. One month later, the 2015 team captain had elevated that status to 90-95 percent.

LAWRENCE HIGH’S CARSON JUMPING EAGLE, RIGHT, HANDS OFF TO teammate Garrett Prescott in the boys 4x800-meter relay during the LHS Invitational on Wednesday at LHS.

Lions, Firebirds make most of opportunity

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Sometimes competing with less pressure brings out the best in track and field athletes.

Look no further than Lawrence High junior Lexi Anglin, who set a personal record in the javelin on Wednesday and picked up a win in the discus. Anglin topped her old mark in the javelin by four feet.

Anglin was one of the many athletes who set personal records at the LHS Invitational, also known as the “Little KU Relays.” The meet was for all of the athletes who didn’t qualify for this weekend’s Kansas Relays.

“Usually I fall in the middle or somewhere right there,” Anglin said of winning two events. “It feels great today.”

Lawrence’s girls track and field team placed second in the team standings, and the

boys were third. Free State High’s girls were fifth, and the boys took fourth.

Without some of the top throwers, Anglin became one of the top seeds in each event. She won the javelin with a throw of 108 feet, 9 inches. Lawrence’s Baylee Unruh was runner-up, and Free State’s Brooke Culbertson finished third.

In the discus, Anglin won with a throw of 94-8, edging teammate Kedra Green

by four inches. Anglin said it helped that she had to rush in between events, giving her little time to think before her throws.

“This is a great opportunity for kids who are perpetually (junior-varsity) or on the fringe of being varsity to come out and shine,” Lawrence coach Jack Hood said.

Along with Anglin, the Lions picked up big days from Please see TRACK, page 9C

Six KU squads post perfect APR scores

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The NCAA revealed Wednesday that Kansas University tied an athleticdepartment record with six teams scoring a perfect APR score of 1,000 for the 2014-15 school year.

In addition, all 16 of KU’s varsity athletic programs came in above the 930 multi-year APR Please see BALDWIN, page 3C number which the NCAA

considers to be in “good standing.”

Men’s basketball, men’s golf, women’s basketball, women’s cross country, women’s tennis and volleyball were the six perfect programs in 2014-15, with four of the six holding a multi-year score of 990 or higher.

A team’s annual APR (academic progress rate) score is a measure of two things: the overall eligibility of its

athletes and the retention of those athletes from semester to semester as they pursue their degrees. Each scholarship athlete in every sport has the potential to earn four points per school year. Two points are possible for being eligible, and two points are possible for remaining in good academic standing.

The system came about in 2003 as a new way for universities to track the

academic performance of their student-athletes. Until 2003, the only gauges available were team grade-point average and graduation rates. However, researchers discovered that both numbers moved too slowly to matter on a year-to-year basis.

BRIEFLY NBA

Timberwolves land Thibodeau as coach Minneapolis — Tom Thibodeau’s NBA career started as an assistant on the inaugural Minnesota Timberwolves team.

He returns 25 years later as one of the most high-profile coaches in the game, ready to lead a talent-laden young roster out of the abyss.

The Timberwolves hired Thibodeau as coach and president of basketball operations on Wednesday, a power move for a franchise that has been depicted as a basketball wasteland for the last dozen years.

Thibodeau was the most coveted coach on the market, and he’s bringing his unparalleled intensity and hard-driving approach to a franchise that has not made the playoffs since 2004. He won nearly 65 percent of his games in five seasons with the Chicago Bulls, but was fired after last season amid speculation of a rift with general manager Gar Forman.

Thibodeau got a five-year deal worth about $8 million per season, and Taylor also spent to bring San Antonio Spurs assistant GM Scott Layden in to serve as the Wolves’ general manager and Thibodeau’s righthand man in the front office.

Thibodeau will replace Flip Saunders, who was both president and coach before his death in October.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Bradford takes prep job

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University guard Nick Bradford has been hired as head boys basketball coach at Mexico (Mo.) High School.

The 6-foot-7, 37-yearold Bradford, who played at KU for Roy Williams from 1997 to 2000, currently is coach of the Missouri Phenom girls AAU team, based in Blue Springs, Mo. He has been an assistant men’s coach at Missouri Southern State in Joplin, Mo., and Labette County Community College in Parsons.

He has also coached for many years in Kansas City’s Run GMC AAU program.

“It’s a great opportunity,” Bradford told the Journal-World on Wednesday. “This was my first year since I was a little kid not being part of a school team or pro team playing or coaching. I’m ready to get back in the everyday basketball grind.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” added Bradford, who spent the last year training athletes while working as a

substitute teacher in his hometown of Fayetteville, Ark. He returned to the KC area to start coaching the Phenom again this spring.

Bradford joked that “Mexico is 10, 15 miles east of Columbia — (Missouri) Tiger country. But the AD is kind of a big Kansas guy,” he added with a laugh referring to Jeff Anderson, who last week was named athletic director of the year by the Missouri Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Assn.

Bradford and his wife, Brittani, will be moving to Mexico with their two sons, Quenci, age 9, and Isaiah, 5. l

Thornton considers four: Former Duke point guard Derryck Thornton has narrowed his list of schools to four — KU, USC, Miami and Washington.

The 6-foot-2 freshman, who announced plans to transfer after averaging 7.1 points and 2.6 assists per game this past season, told Scout.com: “Kansas has a terrific tradition and (coach) Bill Self runs a great program.

I have a great relationship with (assistant) Kur-

tis Townsend. They win the Big 12 every year and I know they’re going to be in the national championship hunt.” l

BALDWIN HIGH SENIOR GEORGE LETNER RUNS during a cross country meet.

Baldwin CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

of Kansas last weekend in Wichita with a 4:01.7.

Natalie Beiter, Carly Lindenmeyer and Abby Ogle also will compete at the meet.

For the Baldwin boys, 75 percent of last season’s state-champion 4X800 relay team is back and will run at the Kansas Relays. Letner, Parker Wilson and anchor man Dakota Helm are joined this season by freshman Jacob Bailey. Jeremy Wil-

liams, Matt Jackson, Ellis Baughan and Noah Watson form the 4X200 relay.

Helm anchors the 4X400 that Baughan, Watson and Jackson also run. Bailey, Watson, Helm and Letner compete in the distance medley.

Mike Spielman, former distance runner for KU, is the boys head coach and coaches the distance runners for boys and girls.

“I would give most of the credit to our coach,” Helm said of the school’s dominance in cross country and distance events. “And everyone I’ve known on the cross country team has been

dedicated and worked as hard as they possibly could. Once the freshmen see how the juniors and seniors treat it, they see the need to do it themselves.”

Injuries and the mental drain that running can cause can lead to high burnout rates for the sport.

“We’ve got 10 seniors, and that’s unheard of in girls track,” Zuzzio said.

“Usually, you get four or five. They do other things, get a job, or stop competing for whatever reason. These girls are having a lot of fun competing.”

Kaitlen White (300 hurdles champ) and Josie Hickerson (pole vault runner-up).

For the FSHS girls team, Caylee Irving won in the shot put, Reganne Young was second in the long jump and Lily Begeman was third in the 400 meters.

It was also a banner day for Free State freshman Caitlin McAndrew-Beckham, who set personal records in the 100 and 300 hurdles and matched her best mark in the long jump. She took fourth place in all three events.

“It’s really cool,” McAndrew-Beckham said. “It’s a cool experience that I get to be among the top people on JV as a freshman.”

an annual basis, and programs that fall below 930 face the potential for penalties, which range from loss of scholarships to postseason bans.

The 1,000 scored by Bill Self’s 2014-15 squad represented a bounce-back of sorts. One year earlier, after a streak of eight perfect years in a row, the program dropped below 1,000 due to a retention penalty.

The star-studded hoops program now has scored 1,000 in nine of the last 10 years but, because of the structure of the APR multi-year score, will need three more perfect years to get the multi-year number back to the top.

Regardless, KU’s associate athletic director for student-athlete support, Paul Buskirk, said Self’s program remains a model of how to blend academic success with athletic achievement.

“Men’s basketball here is still well above the national trends,” Buskirk said.

Men’s and women’s track both had single-

Hunter Krom and BJ Murray added secondplace finishes in the javelin and shot put, respectively.

“There wasn’t as much competition as I thought,” said Reeder, who set a personal record in the

300 hurdles (43.73). “It’s completely different.”

Free State’s boys had wins in the field from Sam Hambleton (discus) and Cameron Hodge (pole vault).

On the track, Peter Rupnicki was second in the 100-meter dash, just ahead of teammates Zach Wilson and Keenan Garber. Rupnicki was fourth in the 200.

year numbers below 930 — the only two KU programs to fall below that threshold — but because the NCAA only worries about the four-year score, there is no penalty for dropping below 930 in any given academic year.

Despite that fact, Buskirk said such numbers certainly catch his eye.

“Red flag is a good term,” said Buskirk, who, along with other members of KU’s academic support staff and the head coaches, keeps constant tabs on the academic performance of all of KU’s scholarship athletes. “In track’s case, a lot of life stepped in. There were a lot of personal circumstances that ended up having students leave the program. That does happen. We just happened to have a few happen at the same time.”

Because of past performances, track’s multiyear numbers (936 for men and 956 for women) stayed above the goodstanding mark, which gives Buskirk, head coach Stanley Redwine and his student-athletes wiggle room to get things back on track.

“This can happen a couple of times in your four-year measurement and you’re OK,” Buskirk

said. “But you can’t do this four years in a row.”

One of KU’s most highprofile programs is headed the opposite way.

After suffering through a couple of low-scoring seasons because of the departure of several scholarship players — many of them junior college transfers — brought in during the Charlie Weis era, the KU football program’s 936 multi-year score, though still on the low side, is higher than in recent years, and secondyear coach David Beaty’s squad showed progress with a 946 score for the 2014-15 school year. Previously, the football program tallied a 908 single-year APR score for 2013-14.

“The one-year (score) is the encouraging part because our trend is moving in the direction where we need it to go,” Buskirk said. “Coach Beaty is very much on board with what we inherited from the predecessor, and he’s doing a fabulous job of managing his numbers.”

In today’s world, with more and more studentathletes leaving school early to pursue professional opportunities — particularly with men’s basketball at Kansas — keeping athletes in good

Tanner Cobb was third in the long jump, fourth in the 400 and seventh in the 200. He set a personal record in the long jump (18-9.5).

“I was pretty happy, but I think I can prove a little bit more,” Cobb said.

Of course, some of the athletes enjoy facing the top competitors, who will compete at the Kansas Relays, because it’s a chance to push themselves. But for one day, they didn’t mind becoming the top competitors at their down-sized meet.

“They get a chance to compete,” Hood said.

“Without the KU Relay kids in the meet, it’s a little easier for them to score points. It really gives them a sense that they are doing something and feel good. If you watched the kids’ faces, they had a great time today.”

The high school portion of the Kansas Relays begins at 8 a.m. Friday at Rock Chalk Park.

There also has been some discussion about Cozart moving to another position. But as of the spring game, a move did not seem imminent. It remains to be seen how this news might impact Cozart’s future.

Although uncertainty at the game’s most important position remains, many expect Willis to enter the season as the Jayhawks’ starter. However, Beaty said Tuesday that the race was still wideopen and hotly contested.

“We’ve got a real battle on our hands,” the second-year KU coach said.

“They know the way to operate. You’ve gotta earn it here. And the way you earn it at quarterback is you manage the game, you get us into good, highly efficient plays and you move the team. And you do it, all along the way, (while also) being a leader for our team.”

“We’re excited about moving forward. Obviously, the big thing is just getting those guys enough reps to be able to give us a good view of who is who. That’ll be kind of key in terms of what kind of decision we make for who (our quarterback) will be.”

“Every day I can just feel myself getting better and back to normal,” he said on April 6. “It’s been a great process. ... Maybe if it was my throwing arm I would feel (more concerned), but it’s my off shoulder, and I feel comfortable with it and feel real confident where it’s headed. It’s strengthening and getting back to normal, and I feel really good.”

Wednesday afternoon, Cozart hit Twitter to share his excitement about the news: “I am extremely blessed and grateful to receive hardship waiver due to injury last year,” Cozart Tweeted. “An extra year of work! God speed.”

With Willis injured and limited to mostly mental reps during spring practices, Cozart remained in the mix for the starting job. He was less than impressive during the spring game on April 9, but Beaty said that performance (10-of-19, 115 yards, one touchdown, academic standing has three interceptions) was become an even greater not indicative of the kind challenge. But Buskirk of spring Cozart had. said both the continued commitment of his academic support staff while the student-athletes are on campus, along with an increase in online opportunities when they are not, has made academic Kansas baseball performance easier to rips Baker, 19-2 manage and track.
