Long-closed portion of 31st Street set to reopen on Wednesday

A

key portion of 31st Street that has been closed for months as part of the South Lawrence Trafficway project will reopen soon.

Kansas Department of Transportation officials have set Wednesday as the date to open the portion of 31st Street between Ousdahl Road and Haskell Avenue. In addition, the portion of Louisiana Street that is north of 31st Street is scheduled

to reopen on Aug. 19. The portion of Louisiana Street south of 31st Street is scheduled to open in late September.

Both portions of Louisiana and 31st streets have been closed since June 2014. Both roads were part of the larger South Lawrence Trafficway project. Crews have relocated and completely rebuilt 31st Street. KDOT and

FAIRGROUNDS OF THE FUTURE

city officials said the scheduled opening of 31st Street on Wednesday will mean that portion of the project is “completely finished and open to all traffic.”

Work on the South Lawrence Trafficway bypass project is expected to continue into 2016.

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration unveiled nearly $63 million in general fund spending cuts and other savings, but said those budget changes should not have a direct effect on state services.

“There are a couple things you could call pure cuts or reductions, but what we tried to do was to minimize the impact on services,” budget director Shawn Sullivan said.

Kansas lawmakers made the cuts part of the tax and spending package they approved at the end of the 2015 session. Lawmakers Sullivan had assumed the administration would find at least $50 million in cuts or other savings, but gave the administration authority to cut as much as $100 million.

Sullivan noted that the administration was not legally required to make the cuts.

But not doing so would have left the state with a projected ending balance of just $17 million when the new fiscal year ends June 30, much lower than most officials are comfortable with.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The cuts may also be important to the bond markets. The state is planning to issue $1 billion in pension obligation bonds, possibly by the middle of next month, to shore up the troubled Kansas Public Employees Retirement System. Sullivan said the administration wants to include the budget changes in a bond disclosure document that is planned for release today.

The largest single reduction in state general fund spending, $17.7 million, will come from the State Children’s Health Insurance Program, a joint state and federal program that provides coverage to uninsured children in working families that earn too much to qualify for Medicaid. Sullivan said the cut was made possible because the federal government increased its

Plinsky said. Construction will likely carry through 2016, but the fairgrounds will remain open “as much as possible” during the process.

“It’s not going to shut down the fair,” Plinsky said. “We’re hoping it can actually be a cool part of the fair, like, ‘look at all the progress we’ve made and all the cool things that are happening.’”

Plans for the project began in 2007, but were ultimately delayed because of a nationwide economic recession, Plinsky said. In the past year, however, the county decided to take another look at the plans.

Rough estimates for the construction work come in around $6.5 million, Plinsky said. That

ers in Hawkins’ Missouribased company — Teresa Brown, Johnny Heurung, William Miller and Martin Roper — were convicted of conspiracy to commit fraud.

A three-judge panel of the 8th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals said Wednesday that it found no reason to overturn any of the convictions.

Hawkins founded Petro America in Kansas in 2007 and later moved its headquarters to Missouri, where he rented a “virtual office” in a high-rise near the Crown Center shopping mall in Kansas City.

He started selling unregistered stock to investors — many of them poor, elderly churchgoers — in 2008 at a cost of $100 per

“

share of payment for the program.

“This does not lead to any sort of expenditure reduction or any change in the program,” Sullivan said.

He said the federal government recently increased its match rate, from about 70 percent to 92 percent as an incentive for states to increase the level of services they provide, up to the same level of services offered under Medicaid. But he said Kansas already offers similar levels of service, and therefore the increased federal match could be used to reduce state general fund expenditures in that program.

Another major source of savings will come from sweeping about $9 million in funds that state agencies had carried over from last fiscal year. The biggest chunk of that, about $7 million, is money that was earmarked in the Department of Education for KPERS contributions for school district employees, the result of

budget officials over-estimating how much would be owed for pensions, based on the number of employees and their average salaries.

Other major adjustments include: l $4 million from a program that draws down additional Medicaid reimbursement for hospitals. Sullivan said that program drew down $4 million more than expected last year. l $8 million from the Kansas Department of Transportation that resulted from “efficiencies” that were implemented last year in the agency’s operations. Sullivan said that cut will have no impact on the ongoing T-Works highway construction program. l $2.2 million from

the Department of Commerce, where expenditures from the Children’s Initiative Fund and Economic Development Initiative Fund were less than expected last year.

That money will be moved into the state general fund. l And $2.8 million to be transferred from the Children’s Initiative Funding to the general fund because expenditures for the Lexia reading program were less than expected last year.

A full list of the budget adjustments is available on the Division of Budget’s website, budget. ks.gov.

With the budget adjustments announced Thursday, Sullivan said the projected ending balance for the general fund

money is included in the county’s Capital Improvement Plan.

Plans for the grounds include demolishing two buildings, building two more and completely refurbishing the existing derby arena, Plinsky said.

The biggest building will be built on the fairground’s north side, directly east of the indoor arena, Plinsky said.

There, a 50,000 squarefoot concrete “Open Pavilion” will be erected.

The pavilion will be open for spring, summer and fall, Plinsky said. During fair time it will be used to house animals, but in the offseason it could fit virtually any purpose.

“Events, car shows, home shows,” she said.

“Basically anything you’d want 50,000 square feet of space for.”

Fairground buildings One and Two, located perpendicular to each other on the south side of the grounds, will then be

demolished and replaced with one square building, called the “Meeting Hall,” Plinsky said. The hall will be divided in half by a corridor, enabling the building to be used by two groups at a time.

And finally, the existing derby area will be completely refurbished and redirected from its current north/south situation.

“It will be reoriented to be east/west and become more of a horseshoe,” Plinsky said. “It will be built into the ground so it opens towards the east and Venture Park and will feature concrete seating and grass seating on the sides.”

Work on the derby area will make the space easier to maintain and enable more events like tractor pulls and rodeos to take place, Plinsky said.

Aside from expanding the grounds, the majority of the work can be considered “deferred maintenance and acces-

sibility improvements,” Plinsky said.

“There are a lot of utilities that just need to be expanded and improved.

A lot of utility work has not been done since the ’50s,” she said. “Most of the site is really not in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. This is a very public place with a lot of public events and I can’t get people in wheelchairs to most of the venues.”

Having been involved with the project for over six years, County Commissioner Jim Flory said he is “absolutely pleased” with recent developments.

“We’ve got a long way to go, but I’m very excited about seeing it progress,” he said. “It will be a great improvement for the entire community.”

Republican leaders in the Legislature generally praised the announcement.

“We can’t cut income taxes, as we have done, without also reducing government spending,” Senate President Susan Wagle of Wichita said. “I applaud the administration and look forward to joining my colleagues in January to find more efficiencies and to further the cause of right sizing government, so that Kansans have more money in their pocket.”

But House Democratic Leader Tom Burroughs said the state’s budget is still fundamentally out of balance, and he blamed Brownback for what he called “failed fiscal policies.”

“Once again, the governor is relying on one-time funds and fee sweeps,” Burroughs, D-Kansas City, said. “For the state to return to firm financial footing, we need a responsibly balanced budget accompanied by sustainable revenue.”

BRIEFLY Hearing date set in Washburn prof death Girard — An October preliminary hearing date has been set for the Chanute man charged in the traffic death of a Washburn University professor who was struck and killed while riding her bike.

The Topeka CapitalJournal reports the hearing for 37-year-old Todd M. Kidwell will be held Oct. 26 in the Crawford County District Court in Girard. He’s charged with second-degree reckless murder in the June 7 death of Glenda Taylor.

Taylor was head of the Washburn University art department. She was riding in Crawford County when a pickup struck her while its driver tried to pass her.

Kidwell is also charged with reckless driving, improper passing of a bicycle and driving left in a no-passing zone.

Woman found dead in home of man accused of raping two young girls I Police suspect no foul play in death

By Caitlin Doornbos

Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

A woman was found dead Thursday morning inside the home of a 39-year-old Lawrence man accused of raping two girls.

Around 8:30 a.m., Lawrence police went to 1303

Delaware St. Lot 2, the address of the mobile home of William Joseph Ellis Jr. Inside, police found the body of a woman who appeared to be in her 30s, Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said.

Crime scene investigators and coroner scene investigators processed the scene Thursday morning.

Foul play is not suspected at this point in the death investigation, McKinley said.

An autopsy on the body is scheduled for today. The woman’s identification will “likely be made during the coroner’s examination,” McKinley said.

From the Archives THE “RISING SONS” ROCK ‘N’ ROLL BAND WAS A FEATURE ATTRACTION as the sixth annual Downtown Lawrence Sidewalk Sale drew to a close July 23, 1965.

A member of the group is pictured as the crowd forms outside the Red Dog Inn at 642 Massachusetts St. (now Liberty Hall).

Later, the show was moved inside when the crowd of dancers and spectators grew so large that traffic was impeded.

Each week, usually on Thursday, the Journal-World runs an image from our archives chosen by chief photographer Mike Yoder that gives a glimpse into Lawrence’s past.

f you are looking to buy a home in Lawrence, you had better lace up those running shoes. Home sale statistics for the first half of 2015 show that buyers need to be ready to move to keep up with what is becoming a tight home market.

For the first six months of the year, home sales in Lawrence are up nearly 20 percent, compared with the same period a year ago. But an emerging trend in the market is how quickly homes are selling.

The days of you and your spouse or roomie having the time to debate whether this room or that room is big enough to house the chocolate fountain are coming to an end. (I’m assuming that is the big debate in your house, too.)

The median number of days a home sits on the market before it sells is now down to 25. That’s down from 34 days at this point in

The pace seems to be quickening as well.

When you look at just the homes that sold in June, the median time those homes sat on the market before selling was 13 days. Wow. It takes us 14 days just to hear back from the architect on how much it will cost to strengthen the floors of the various closets we’ll use to house shoes.

It is a crazy market if people are buying homes before knowing that cost.

She is our only child and is marrying a great guy. While we are excited about all of the planning for the big event, it appears that the groom’s mother, “Dolores,” is trying to take control.

For nearly every detail that my daughter and I agree upon, Dolores steps in and wants to make changes. While I appreciate her enthusiasm, is this the way that things are supposed to be? She is putting my daughter in the middle and making the situation terribly uncomfortable, especially since the groom is in the military and the wedding won’t take place for another 18 months.

‘Wet Hot’ indie camp on Netflix Can we be nostalgic for nostalgia itself? The new eightepisode comedy “Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp” begins streaming on Netflix today. It is extremely impressive and entirely ephemeral.

The 2001 indie comedy “Wet Hot American Summer” was rather remarkable for its cast of both known and up-and-coming talent, its abject silliness and the fact that just about nobody went to see it.

A spoof of raunchy, lowbudget, comingof-age sex comedies from the early 1980s, “Wet Hot” more than succeeded in parodying the sensibilities of comedies made with a fraction of the budget of “Porky’s.”

Perhaps that’s why it ended up becoming a minor cult hit seen primarily on DVD — mostly rented from the “old” Netflix model.

Its cast at the time, too enormous to entirely appreciate here, included relatively wellknown performers David Hyde Pierce, Molly Shannon, Christopher Meloni, Paul Rudd and Michael Ian Black, as well as such emerging talents as Amy Poehler and Bradley Cooper.

They’ve all returned for this prequel, along with many guest appearances, including Jon Hamm and John Slattery of “Mad Men” fame, Kristen Wiig, Chris Pine and others.

Most of the cast members were too old to play camp counselors and staff in 2001. And that was half the fun. Now they are playing similar roles, but looking almost 15 years older.

Some are “enhanced” by wigs, adding to the absurdity. If the sight of 40-somethings playing oversexed youth isn’t jarring enough, many of the gags are slow and understated and painfully obvious. This blends oddly with the strenuous overacting of the cast of unknowns playing the young campers. ‘‘Wet Hot” is best appreciated as a cast reunion. And you have to appreciate its goofy egalitarianism. After four Oscar nominations and starring roles in blockbusters like “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “The Hangover” franchise, you could imagine Bradley Cooper had bigger fish to fry. But he’s here, as is Paul Rudd, who’s starring in “Ant-Man,” the biggest movie in America at the moment.

es: using money from the district’s reserve fund, or shifting money away from other areas, Doll said.

“You dig further into our reserve, which we are already doing, or you cut somewhere else so you can have the dollars to hire the teacher,” he said.

The district’s enrollment for next year is projected at about 10,300 students, and does not count the 877 full-time students in the Lawrence Virtual School, which includes students from across the state, Doll said. As students enroll in the weeks leading up to the first day of school, officials will be paying attention.

“We are watching our enrollment very closely, and making adjustments as we need to, even right down to the start of school,” Doll said.

continue, Doll said. The projections were part of a report, by the educational planning firm RSP & Associates, that was presented at Monday’s school board meeting.

After a general decline in enrollment from 2000 to 2009 that saw around 700 students leave the district, the number of students increased by more than 600 from 2010 to 2014, according to the report. The report projects growth to slowly continue for the next five years, with an increase of more than 300 students in that time.

With those projections and the new funding formula, Lawrence school

district officials are keeping a wary eye on enrollment numbers for the approaching school year.

The report projected anywhere between 30 and 130 additional students to enroll, but the actual enrollment numbers won’t be known until Sept. 21, which is the official count day, Doll said.

“In the past each of those students would have generated dollars that would have helped pay for the new teachers, but that’s not the case anymore, at least for the next two years,” Doll said, referencing the block grant system that will be in place for two years, during which time legislators have said they will put together a new funding formula.

During that time frame, there are two ways to address enrollment increas-

indicate the alleged acts happened with a 7-year-old between Jan. 12, 2014, and last Friday, and with a 9-year-old between March 9, 2014, and last Friday. Prosecutors on Monday said that they believe they had a “strong case.”

Ellis’ wife is listed in court documents as a witness for the prosecution.

It is unclear at this point if her address is the same as Ellis’, though a neighbor on Thursday said he believed a man and a

woman lived in the residence.

At his first appearance, Ellis was ordered not to have contact with any witnesses. When he asked if he could speak with his wife, he was denied.

Ellis has been in the Douglas County Jail since his arrest Saturday on a $500,000 bond. If convicted, Ellis faces a “Hard 40,” or minimum 40 years in prison, for each count, according to prosecutors.

Kleinhenz and friend Colin Guiley, a Southern Oregon undergrad, said they came to the conference to meet people in the herpetology field.

They included the conference as a stop in a summer field trip across the United States.

“We’re just trying to see the largest number of both birds and herps that we can,” Kleinhenz said, adding that he expected good “herp” spotting in Kansas.

More senior herpetologists in town for the event, including retired University of Oklahoma professor Victor Hutchison, said they enjoyed catching up with old friends and seeing what’s currently going on in the field.

Hutchison said KU was a notable place to convene.

“It’s a very important collection,” he said, “and they have been dominant in herpetology for a number of years.”

to The Solar Energy Industries Association.

Westar, which serves 700,000 customers in eastern Kansas communities, has proposed a rate increase for the average household of $13 per month. Westar has said it needs more revenue to pay for retrofitting its La Cygne coal-fired power plant, make improvements at Wolf Creek nuclear power plant and begin upgrading equipment to trim power outages.

Westar has also proposed a new billing structure allowing customers the option of taking a flat service charge or a plan based on the customer’s peak usage each month.

Solar advocates say implementation of those options could undermine economic incentives to install solar panels because cost savings to customers could be delayed.

The KCC’s ruling on the Westar plan is expected by October.

Nude man runs into downtown intersection Around 12:30 p.m.

Thursday, a man stripped off his clothes at the intersection of 23rd and Massachusetts streets and darted into oncoming traffic, possibly looking for a truck to walk in front of, Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said. Witnesses said they believed the act was intentional.

The man began to fight with the first responding officer, McKinley said, and an off-duty officer in the area came to the officer’s aid.

The two of them were able to get the man out of the street and to safety, but they did have to deploy a Taser on the man to subdue him, they said.

He was placed under “protective custody,”

handcuffed and taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment and a mental health evaluation, McKinley said.

Based on witness statements, police are investigating the incident as a possible suicide attempt.

Recycling option Rural county residents soon will have a more convenient way to drop off recyclable materials.

C

ongratulations to Douglas County officials for moving forward on plans to provide increased recycling opportunities for rural residents.

Lawrence, Baldwin City and Eudora all have curbside recycling service. After the curbside service was initiated in Lawrence, it no longer made sense to maintain the drop-off recycling center at Walmart on South Iowa Street. Without that center, rural residents had to bring their recyclables to bins at various parking-lot locations in Lawrence or simply throw them in the trash.

This week, however, the Douglas County Commission approved a pilot program to set up drop-off recycling bins at several rural locations. Eileen Horn, the county’s sustainability coordinator, said Thursday that plans for the recycling locations still are evolving and advised county residents to consult the county’s sustainability website (douglascountyks.org/recycle) for the latest information.

As originally planned, the city is moving forward on recycling sites at Stull United Methodist Church and Wakarusa Valley School. After hearing from residents in the southern part of the county, officials decided to move one recycling site from the Douglas County Public Works Facility on East 25th Street to the Vinland Fairgrounds. County officials also have heard from residents of Grant Township north of Lawrence and may consider adding another recycling site in that area, Horn said.

The program will take the same recyclables as are accepted in Lawrence and materials don’t have to be sorted.

The county plans to operate the recycling program for six months as a pilot then take a look at how much the service is being used and any problems that arise. The interest already being expressed in the location of drop-off sites appears to confirm the desire of county residents to make use of this additional service. It is to the county’s credit that it is trying to respond to that demand.

Hopefully, the pilot will run smoothly and provide a popular and useful new service for rural county residents.

Christians fleeing from Mideast Washington — Christianity, whose presence in the Middle East predates Islam’s by 600 years, is about to be cleansed from the Middle East. Egyptian Copts may have found some respite under Abdel Fatah al-Sissi, but after their persecution under the previous Muslim Brotherhood government, they know how precarious their existence in 90 percent Muslim Egypt remains. Elsewhere, it’s much worse. Twenty-one Copts were beheaded by the Islamic State affiliate in Libya for the crime of being Christian. In those large swaths of Syria and Iraq where the Islamic State rules, the consequences for Christians are terrible — enslavement, exile, torture, massacre, crucifixion.

Over the decades, many Middle Eastern Christians, seeing the rise of political Islam and the intensification of savage sectarian wars, have simply left. Lebanon’s Christians, once more than half the population, are now estimated at about a third. The number of Christians under Palestinian Authority rule in the West Bank has dwindled — in Bethlehem, for example, dropping by half. (The exception, of course, is Israel, where Christians, Arab and non-Arab, enjoy not just protection but civil rights. Their numbers are increasing. But that’s another story.)

Most endangered are the

Christians of Syria. Four years ago they numbered about 1.1 million. By now 700,000 have fled. Many of those remaining in country are caught either under radical Islamist rule or in the crossfire between factions. As the larger Christian world looks on passively, their future, like the future of Middle Eastern Christianity writ large, will be determined

by Iran, Hezbollah, the Assad dynasty, the Islamic State, the Nusra Front, various other local factions and by regional powers seeking advantage.

Meanwhile, on a more limited scale, there are things that can be done.

Three weeks ago, for example, 150 Syrian Christians were airlifted to refuge and safety in Poland.

That’s the work of the Weidenfeld Safe Havens Fund. It provided the flight and will support the refugees for as long as 18 months as they try to remake their lives.

The person behind all this is Lord George Weidenfeld: life peer, philanthropist, publisher (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, established 1949), Europeanist (founder of the Institute for Strategic Dialogue to promote classically liberal European values), proud public Jew (honorary vice president of the World Jewish Congress), lifelong Zionist (he once served as the chief of Cabinet to Israel’s first president, Chaim Weizmann) and, as he will delightedly tell you, the last person to fight a duel at the University of Vienna — with sabers, against a Nazi. (No one died.)

Weidenfeld, now 95, once invoked Torschlusspanik, “a German phrase which roughly translates as the ‘panic before the closing of the doors,’” to explain why “I’m a man in a hurry.” Remarkably healthy and stunningly energetic (as distant cousins, we are often in touch), he appears nowhere near any exit doors. But he is aware of and deeply troubled by the doors closing in on a community in Syria largely abandoned by

In context, the scale of the initial rescue is tragically small. The objective is to rescue 2,000 families.

Compared to the carnage in Syria wrought by the pitiless combatants — 230,000 dead, half the 22 million population driven from their homes — it’s a paltry sum. But these are real people who will be saved. And for Weidenfeld, that counts.

Yet he has been criticized for rescuing just Christians.

In fact, the U.S. government will not participate because the rescue doesn’t extend to Yazidis, Druze or Shiites.

This comes under the heading of no good deed going unpunished. It’s a rather odd view that because he cannot do everything, he should be admonished for trying to do something And for him, it’s personal.

In 1938, still a teenager, he was brought from Vienna to London where the Plymouth Brethren took him in and provided for him. He never forgot. He is trying to return the kindness, he explains, to repay the good that Christians did for him 77 years ago.

In doing so, he is not just giving hope and a new life to 150 souls, soon to be thousands.

He has struck a blow for something exceedingly rare: simple, willful righteousness.

‘Complete streets’ promote health

By Chris Tilden

In 2012, the city of Lawrence took a huge step forward by passing a “complete streets” policy. A complete street is designed to promote safety and convenience for all users. Often seen as a way to encourage walking and bicycling, a truly complete street enhances roadway safety and convenience for all users, including those in vehicles.

Hundreds of cities around the country now have complete streets policies.

L a w rence city engineers are now incorporating proven Tilden complete street design elements into nearly all street redesign projects. While there has been some community resistance to these designs, we should give fair and serious consideration to them. Complete street designs have the potential to make traveling safer and more convenient and to make Lawrence a more active, healthy community.

Some of the more common complete street designs are roundabouts, bike lanes, reverse angle parking and lane reductions, often called road diets. Among current projects, roundabouts and lane reduction are being considered

YOUR TURN on sections of Kasold Drive and Bob Billings Parkway.

The Federal Highway Administration has designated roundabouts and lane reductions as proven safety countermeasures because they: l dramatically reduce the number and severity of crashes (reduced by almost a half in some places), l decrease the number of excessive speeders, and l make it safer to walk across streets.

Projects like lane reduction have been successful on roads with average daily automobile traffic as high as 25,000 cars without negatively affecting traffic flow. In comparison, Kasold Drive and Bob Billings Parkway generally carry less than 15,000 cars a day.

Just as important as safety is the impact of complete streets on physical activity.

Everyone in our community should have access to safe, well-maintained sidewalks and trails. They are an important source of transportation for many, including the approximately 5 percent of Lawrence families that do not own a vehicle. They also offer just about every resident the chance to be active.

Research findings show people travel more on foot and bicycle in neighborhoods where roadways are safer and easy to navigate, and peo-

ple want to live in walkable communities. According to a Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department 2014 survey, 70 percent of elementary and middle school students want to walk or bike to school and most live within reasonable walking or biking distance. Twenty percent of elementary schoolchildren in Lawrence live less than a half mile from school, and more than 50 percent live within a mile. Still, only 14 percent of our elementary and middle school children walk or bike to school. In Lawrence, where we have a strong neighborhood school system, we can do better.

In fact, we must. We live in an increasingly sedentary world where we are prematurely dying because we aren’t moving. A lack of physical activity is leading to increased incidence of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, some cancers and upper respiratory conditions. These diseases cause nearly 6 out of 10 deaths in Douglas County, and our children’s generation is the first ever expected to have shorter lives than their parents’ generation. There isn’t one simple solution to this problem, but it’s clear to me that creating a healthy built environment in Lawrence and Douglas County is a good place to start.

— Chris Tilden is community health director for the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 31, 1915: years “The seismoago graph at the UniIN 1915 versity has been moved from its former quarters in Fraser Hall to new quarters in Blake Hall. A cement block has been built in the floor of the building which connects the seismograph with the solid Oread limestone rock below. The machine is in better place here due to the fact that it is easier for the men in charge of it to keep in touch with it. If the new location proves satisfactory to the observers as the best place that can be obtained for the machine it will be left there and a place for the keeping of the apparatus that goes with it will be arranged. Correct time is received each day by the wireless and the record of the machine is taken by this.”

“At a meeting of the township board of Grant township today at the home of Paul Laptad, north of town, the board granted a petition circulated by Mr. Rowe and signed by most of the farmers of the district, for drainage of the land under water in the township. The drainage ditches will be across the farms of Alfred Heck, Peter Stein and Jacob Hammig, and according to residents of the township these men are showing a large amount of public spirit by allowing their land to be ditched that the farms of others may be released from water. At present there is from four to six hundred acres inundated with surface water which has flowed after each of the heavy rains and has had no way to escape.”

“Topeka. -- Motion pictures are to be used to fight disease in Kansas during the coming fall and winter, according to the announcement made from the office of Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the state board of health. It was asserted that pictures showing the sources of typhoid fever, tuberculosis, small pox, measles, and diphtheria, will be exhibited in every county. Proper personal hygiene and preventative methods also will be portrayed.”

“Forest Savage lies very ill at his home, 1424 Connecticut street. Mr. Savage is one of the best known among the old settlers of Lawrence. He came here during the border war, in which he took part, and has the distinction of being the leader of the first band in Lawrence.

He is an old ex-Union soldier, and is 87 years old.”

More than 5,000 bystanders and passengers have been killed in police car chases since 1979, and tens of thousands more were injured as officers repeatedly pursued drivers at high speeds and in hazardous conditions, often for minor infractions, a USA TODAY analysis shows.

Some police say drivers who flee are suspicious, and chasing them maintains law and order.

“When crooks think they can do whatever they choose, that will just fester and foster more crimes,” said Milwaukee police union President Michael Crivello.

Many in law enforcement, including the Justice Department, have recognized the danger of high-speed chases and urge officers to avoid or abort pursuits that endanger pedestrians, nearby motorists or themselves. At least 139 police have been killed in chases, federal records show.

“A pursuit is probably the most unique and dangerous job law enforcement can do,” said Tulsa Police Maj. Travis Yates, who runs a pursuit-training academy. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Debris ‘almost certainly’ from 777 But Malaysian official says he can’t confirm it’s from missing flight Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Malaysia’s deputy transport minister on Thursday said it is “almost certain” that aircraft debris found off the coast of the Indian Ocean island of Reunion came from a Boeing 777 aircraft.

Abdul Aziz Kaprawi told reporters that the country’s chief investigator told him the “flaperon” — part of a plane’s wing — was almost certainly from the same model of aircraft as Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. However, he told Malaysian publication The Star that the government could not confirm the debris was from MH370.

KARL GELLES, USA TODAY In a possibly related development, the same cleaning crew on Thursday found a suitcase with wheels near the same spot, the local newspaper, Le Journal de L’ile de la Reunion reports.

The newspaper published a photo of the suitcase and quoted Johnny Begue, a member of the cleaning crew, as saying the piece of luggage was there Wednesday “but nobody really paid attention. ... We still see the closure of the bag still attached to a piece of rigid canvas.”

As for the wing debris, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said it is too early to speculate whether it’s from MH370.

In a statement, he said the debris will be shipped by French au-

thorities to Toulouse for examination. A Malaysian team is en route to the southern French city, while a second team is traveling to Reunion, he said.

“The location is consistent

with the drift analysis provided to the Malaysian investigation team,” he added. “As soon as we have more information or any verification, we will make it public.”

Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss on Thursday described the discovery as a “major lead” in the search for the aircraft, which disappeared after taking off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on March 8, 2014, with 239 people aboard.

Truss, who has overseen the search for the Boeing 777 in the ocean 1,000 miles west of Perth, said it would “take some time” to come to a conclusion.

The Army is nearly 14% short of the recruits it will need to fill its ranks, marking the first time in six years — and only the third in the past 20 — that it may fall short of its recruiting goal for the year.

The Army’s top officer for recruiting, Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Snow, acknowledged in an interview with USA TODAY on Thursday the difficulties in attracting young men and women to the acWASHINGTON

tive-duty Army in an improving economy and the greater effort his recruiters are taking to find new soldiers.

“It is a challenging mission, and we’re not going to get around that,” Snow said. “And there are indications that the economy is going to continue to improve.”

Still, Snow, who took command this summer, expressed confidence that recruiters would hit the goal of 59,000 new recruits when the fiscal year ends Sept. 30.

The shortfall in recruiting comes as the Army is planning to pare 40,000 soldiers over the next

“It is a challenging mission,” Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Snow says.

few years. Despite that reduction to 450,000, the Army still needs about 60,000 recruits a year to fill out combat and support units.

And recruiters are working harder just to get potential soldiers to meet with them.

For the first 10 months of fiscal year 2015, recruiters made more than 415,000 appointments with young men and women interested in the Army. Those resulted in just over 50,000 signing up to serve.

For the same period in 2014, they made 371,000 appointments and had signed up 52,000 soldiers.

“We made more appointments,” Snow said. “We conducted more appointments. Yet there were fewer contracts achieved.”

Meanwhile, the Air Force, Marine Corps and Navy all have

made 100% of their recruiting goals through May, according to the Defense Department.

During the height of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, the services struggled to make their annual goals. Standards for recruits were lowered, and greater signing bonuses were handed out. In 2006, for example, it spent $1 billion on bonuses to recruit and retain soldiers.

Bonuses and educational incentives, however, have decreased in recent years, Snow said. The Army paid out $117 million in 2014 compared with $235 million in 2013.

Traffic violations often trigger pursuits v CONTINUED FROM 1B

The Justice Department called pursuits “the most dangerous of all ordinary police activities” in 1990 and urged police departments to adopt policies listing exactly when officers can and cannot pursue someone. “Far more police vehicle chases occur each year than police shootings,” the department said.

Police chases have killed nearly as many people as justifiable police shootings, according to government figures, which may undercount shootings. Yet chases have escaped the national attention paid to other potentially lethal police tactics.

Despite the Justice Department’s warning, the number of chase-related deaths in 2013 was higher than the number in 1990 — 322 compared with 317, according to records of the Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which analyzes all fatal motor-vehicle RYAN GARZA, DETROIT FREE PRESS crashes.

In Michigan since 2004, 74% of motorcyclists fleeing police were killed, injured or possibly injured when they crashed, state records show. Just 18% of chased car drivers were killed, injured or possibly injured in a crash.

Police departments routinely warn officers about hazardous road conditions and high-risk drivers. Some bar motorcycle cops from pursuits because of the danger if an officer crashes.

Yet nearly one-third of the police-chase deaths involved one of those three high-risk factors, USA TODAY found.

That includes 1,132 motorcyclists who were killed while being chased. More than half — 589 — were not wearing a helmet.

“Most police departments don’t allow their motorcycles to be in pursuits, so why would you chase one?” said Alpert, the pursuit expert. “Motorcycle drivers are either going to get away or they’re going to get killed.”

Michigan state police have chased 120 motorcyclists who crashed since 2004, state records show. State police Capt. Greg Zarotney said, “Keep in mind that a pursuit only occurs when a decision is made by a driver to flee.”

MILWAUKEE POLICE OPPOSE LIMITS ON CHASES

Police departments that restrict chases have faced resistance from officers.

In 2012, the Florida Highway Patrol stopped letting officers chase anyone and allowed pursuits only of suspected felons, drunken drivers and reckless drivers. The number of pursuits fell almost in half: from 697 in 2010-2011 to 374 in 2013-2014.

Thirty-five percent of the pursuits in 2013 and 2014 violated the new chase restrictions, state reports show.

Milwaukee police oppose Chief Flynn’s 2010 policy restricting chases to suspected violent felons and people who present “a clear and imminent threat to the safety of others.”

“The crooks understand that this is our process,” said Michael Crivello, the police union president. “Criminals know their car is almost like their safe locker. They can keep drugs and guns in their safe locker.”

Motor-vehicle thefts in Milwaukee spiked to 18 a day in 2014, from 12 a day in 2013.

Flynn said car theft “became sport” among juveniles. “These kids were finding out, ‘Well, nothing happens to me.’ They had the prestige of being cool to their friends, the thrill of the danger and no consequences,” Flynn said, adding that 70% of cars stolen in the city are recovered.

Dallas, Orlando and Phoenix have seen crime rates plummet since restricting chases.

Many departments base their chase policies on a three-page model the International Association of Chiefs of Police wrote in 1996. The model stops short of the Justice Department recommendation to list the offenses and conditions such as time of day in which a chase is allowed. The model instead lists factors to consider such as road and weather conditions, traffic levels and the seriousness of a driver’s offense.

Flynn restricted chases after four bystanders were killed over three months in 2009 and 2010.

Immediately after the deaths, Flynn defended his officers, noting they followed department policy and had actually stopped their pursuits only to have the fleeing drivers continue speeding away and hit the bystanders.

Fleeing drivers typically continue speeding for a minute or two after police stop their chases.

“I thought to myself, it’s not enough that we have a policy that tells our officers to terminate pursuits when they become unsafe. That was the industry standard,” Flynn said. “I needed an extra line to stop the pursuit in the first place, not because the officers were driving recklessly, but because we can’t control the behavior for those who refuse to stop for police.”

1 IN 5 U.S. ADULTS HAVE A DISABILITY

Wisconsin’s Walker had own email controversy

CDC report also breaks down data by state for first time Jennifer Calfas USA TODAY

One in five American adults have at least one kind of disability, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released Thursday.

The findings, from 2013 data, come days after the 25th anniversary of the implementation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The researchers defined a dis-

ability as a self-reported difficulty in one or more of five areas: vision, cognition, mobility, self-care or independent living — which includes tasks such as buying groceries or driving a car.

The study is also the first stateby-state analysis of Americans with disabilities from CDC. The report found Southern states often had higher percentages of people with disabilities. For example, in Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee, 31.5%, 31.4% and 31.4%, respectively, of the state adult population has a disability.

The percentage of Americans in Midwestern and Northern states were nearly half those from

“In order to understand and address their needs, we need to understand their diverse circumstances.”

Elizabeth Courtney-Long, co-author on the CDC report

Southern states. In Minnesota and Alaska, 16.4% and 17.7%, respectively, reported a disability.

The report also found adults who have lower education levels, lower income or are unemployed were more likely to have a disability. Broken down by race, the

study revealed African American and Hispanic Americans were more likely to have a disability than white Americans.

Elizabeth Courtney-Long, a health scientist with CDC’s National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities and a co-author on the CDC report, said she believes the report will allow public health officials to understand the prevalence of Americans with disabilities — 53 million of them by this count.

“In order to understand and address their needs, we need to understand their diverse circumstances,” she said. “This report provides a snapshot into that.”

CECIL’S DEATH CAUSES LARGE TOURISM DROP IN ZIMBABWE Lion lured from national park was killed by American Frank Chikowore

Special for USA TODAY HARARE , ZIMBABWE

The global outcry over the killing of Cecil the iconic lion has caused a drop in badly needed tourists to this impoverished African nation, government officials said Thursday.

“Our tourism sector, which was booming, has recorded a significant drop in arrivals in the Hwange National Park, where Cecil was being kept,” Zimbabwe Tourism Authority chief Karikoga Kaseke said Thursday without giving exact figures. “The culprits have painted Zimbabwe with a dirty brush. We are now seen as people who do not promote and protect animal rights.”

Kaseke said he would launch an investigation to make sure other illegal hunting wasn’t occurring in the nation’s parks.

Emmanuel Fundira, president of Safari Operators Association of Zimbabwe, said foreign tourists in Zimbabwe were forecast to spend about $5 million in the final quarter of 2015.

“Many international tourists that were set to visit the country to see Cecil have canceled their trips,” Fundira said. “This killing is a huge loss to our tourism sector that was contributing immensely to the national wealth.”

Walter Palmer, 55, a Minnesota dentist, killed 13-year-old Cecil this month near the Hwange National Park on the Botswana border after paying two guides at least $50,000 to track and kill the big cat, according to the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force.

Palmer said he relied on his guides, Theo Bronkhorst and Honest Trymore Ndlovu, to make sure he hunted legally. Zimbabwean prosecutors claim Palmer

and the guides lured Cecil out of the national park with bait, shot him with a crossbow, tracked the wounded animal for 40 hours, then shot him dead.

The two guides appeared in court Wednesday. Bronkhorst was released on bail, and Ndlovu was released without charges.

Zimbabwean Prosecutor General Johannes Tomana said it would be difficult to force Palmer to return to the country for trial.

Cecil was part of a research program funded by the Oxford University in Britain. He wore a

Farai Gambiza, 45, a Harare resident, canceled his October trip to Hwange National Park with his wife and children. “We have no reason to go there anymore because Cecil is dead,” Gambiza said.

Patricia Muchekesi, 47, a government councilor near Hwange, said Cecil was beloved among Zimbabweans. “Cecil was a rare breed of a lion. Unlike other lions that we know to be dangerous,

Cecil was very friendly.”

Conservationists fear Cecil’s death could lead to the deaths of other lions in his pride.

“The saddest part of all is that ... the next lion in the hierarchy, Jericho, will most likely kill all Cecil’s cubs so that he can introduce his bloodline into the females,” said Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force Chairman Johnny Rodrigues. “This is the standard procedure for lions.”

IN BRIEF FORMER VA. GOVERNOR JOINS GOP PRESIDENTIAL RACE

Former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore became the 17th Republican presidential candidate Thursday, making the announcement in a Web video.

“Some may ask, ‘Why am I running?’ ” Gilmore says in the video, noting the large GOP field.

“I’m a candidate for president because our current Washington leadership is guiding America on a path to decline, and I can reverse that decline,” he says.

His entry into the race is no surprise. He told the Richmond Times-Dispatch in July that he would announce his candidacy the first week of August.

Gilmore, 65, was elected governor in 1997, running on a platform of ending the car tax. Prior to that he served as the state’s attorney general. — Cooper Allen COP ACCUSED OF KILLING DRIVER RELEASED ON BOND

A FESTIVE TIME IN FRANCE

GOP candidate calls for Clinton inquiry Madeleine Behr USA TODAY

MADISON, WIS . Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker last week denounced Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her time as secretary of State.

Jay Heck, executive director for Common Cause Wisconsin, a non-partisan good government organization, found Walker’s statement “highly ironic.”

“I was like, ‘Hello? Pot calling the kettle black,’ ” he said.

Walker, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, was Milwaukee County executive from 2002-10 when two of his staffers, Kelly Rindfleisch and Darlene Wink, were convicted of campaigning EPA on public time Clinton because of work they did for Walker’s successful 2010 gubernatorial bid and then-state representative Brett Davis’ campaign for lieutenant governor.

Jay Heck, executive director In his statefor Common ment denouncCause Wisconsin ing Clinton, Walker raised the possibility that the former secretary of State had threatened national security and called for Attorney General Loretta Lynch to determine whether Clinton broke the law.

Barry Burden, a political science professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said Walker probably doesn’t find his statement about Clinton hypocritical because compromising national security is far different than campaign activities on public time.

“I think the press release is more about him trying to get attention as a Republican candidate who will be tough on Hillary Clinton,” Burden said.

Comparing Clinton’s situation to the case with Walker’s office is like comparing “apples and oranges,” former state attorney general Peg Lautenschlager, a Democrat, said.

Walker’s case is just the opposite: private email system to do political work on government time, rather than a private server to do government work using personal resources, she said.

“There is nothing iffy about this,” Lautenschlager said. “You can’t do political work on government time. Period, end of story.”

And while the region’s drinking water is so far safe, acres of spreading green muck float around Toledo’s water intake pipe on Lake Erie yet again.

A coalition of conservation groups and Ohio business, farming and government officials took to boats Wednesday, giving reporters and themselves a first-hand look at another summer of algae blooms already spreading on Lake Erie.

“It’s a signal that our Great Lakes region is sliding backwards,” said Joel Brammeier, president of the non-profit Alliance for the Great Lakes. “If we lose clean drinking water, our region loses everything.”

Toledo, however, has not experienced problems so far this summer with microcystis algae, which produces a toxin called microcystin that reached alarming levels and prompted a “do not drink or boil” water advisory over the first weekend of August last year.

MONEYLINE ‘ROLLING STONE’ EDITOR STEPPING DOWN Will Dana, managing editor of ‘Rolling Stone’ magazine, has decided it is “time to move on,” parent company Wenner Media announced Thursday. The publisher of the iconic culture magazine did not provide a reason for the leadership change and has not named a successor. Dana’s departure comes in the wake of the since-retracted December 2014 article Dana edited, “A rape on campus,” about an alleged gang rape at the hands of University of Virginia fraternity members. Dana declined to comment on whether the discredited story was a factor in the decision.

30-YEAR MORTGAGE RATES BREAK 4% MARK Thirty-year fixed mortgage rates averaged 3.98% for the week, dropping six basis points after a roller coaster of financial and economic news on China, the Federal Reserve and the housing market. That’s according to the Primary Mortgage Market Survey, released Thursday by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp., or Freddie Mac, a government-sponsored enterprise that purchases and securitizes home loans. The report marks the first time the average has ducked below 4% since early June, after trending low the first half of 2015.

PROCTER & GAMBLE EARNINGS PLUMMET Procter & Gamble reported a $7 billion profit for its fiscal year ended June 30 — a 40% drop from the same period a year earlier. Sales decreased 5% to $76.3 billion — missing Wall Street forecasts. Closely watched organic sales, which exclude effects from foreign exchange, acquisitions or divestitures, increased 1%. The Cincinnati-based consumer products giant said results were marred by foreign exchange rates, which shaved total sales by 6%. The company also took a $2.1 billion charge as it changed its method for accounting for Venezuelan operations. Shares closed Thursday down 4% to $77.39.

In its filing Thursday, the Justice Department challenged this viewpoint, saying the appeals court relied on a “novel test” that has “created a conflict with circuits.”

STOCKS THAT DODGE AUGUST PAIN Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Simply getting through August unscathed would please most investors. But there have been ways to thrive during a cruel month for stocks.

There are 13 stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500, including car parts seller Advance Auto Parts, entertainment giant 21st Century Fox and utility FirstEnergy, that consistently have beaten the August slows. Each have topped the S&P 500 each of the past five months of August, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ. Finding stocks that have actually performed well during the late summer isn’t easy. The S&P 500 has dropped an average of 2.4% during the past five Augusts — not exactly a ringing endorsement of the month. The market has dropped in four of the past five months of August. The exception was August 2014, when the market rose 3.8%.

Longer term, August isn’t all that much better. It’s just one of four months that have posted average losses dating to 1950, says The Stock Trader’s Almanac.

That’s why investors might want to know the types of stocks that have withstood the test of August the best. It’s a month that investors get decidedly defensive or focused on the last throes of summer. Not one of the consistent August winners hail from the volatile technology sector or the cyclical industrial sector.

Of the 13 stocks to buck the August downturn, four are in the

consumer discretionary sector.

Two of those are auto parts sellers, including Advance Auto Parts and O’Reilly Automotive.

Analysts are rather bullish about O’Reilly’s profit during the third quarter. They’re calling for the company to deliver an adjusted third-quarter profit of $2.34 a share during the period, which would be the largest quarterly profit for it this year. Advance and O’Reilly have gained 4.1% and 1.6%, respectively, during the past five Augusts. Those gains won’t blow away most investors, but remember that August is just about not getting burned.

It’s easier to see the connection with some of the other August winners, especially 21st Century Fox. Summer movies are on investors’ minds, and many might try to get into the shares to capitalize from any box-office scores.

Fantastic Four is set for release Aug. 7, followed by Hitman: Agent 47 on Aug. 21. The movie-maker’s shares have risen 3.8% over the past five Augusts on average.

But given August’s bad reputation with investors, it’s not surprising investors look to hunker down a bit. Three of the 13 best summer performers are utilities stocks, known for being stable and good dividend payers. Take FirstEnergy, which has gained 3.4% over the previous four Augusts. Here’s the part investors really like, though: a 4.4% current dividend yield. With income like that, investors are willing to put up with some August volatility.

If August is any guide — it’s understandable for investors to brace for losses. But there are patterns that might give investors a hand getting through it.

Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A) said Thursday that it will cut about 6,500 jobs and capital investment this year as it restructures and dumps some businesses to prepare for a “prolonged downturn” in oil prices.

The Netherlands-based energy company’s cutbacks reflect tough times in the exploration and production end of the oil business, the so-called “upstream” side as opposed to refining and retailing.

Big Oil, as it’s called when consumers are angry about high gas prices, is facing some big challenges.

Shell also said its second-quarter net income fell 25% to $3.99 billion. Brent crude averaged about $62 a barrel during the period, down from $110 in the second quarter of 2014, the Associated Press reported.

Operating costs will be cut by $4 billion and capital investment plans will be lowered by $7 billion this year, the company said.

“Today’s oil price downturn could last for several years, and Shell’s planning assumptions reflect today’s market realities,” Royal Dutch Shell CEO Ben van Beurden said. “The company has to be resilient in today’s oil price environment, even though we see the potential for a return to a $70-$90 oil price band in the medium term.”

“Today’s oil price downturn could last for several years, and Shell’s planning assumptions reflect today’s market realities.”

Ben van Beurden, Royal Dutch Shell CEO

Van Beurden told Bloomberg News that the job cuts were due to “a multiplicity of programs that we have going on throughout the company, focusing on bottom line improvements and ... restructuring and exiting businesses.”

Shell isn’t alone. Other giants of the industry such as BP, Exxon Mobil, Chevron Texaco and Total, to name a few, are all feeling the pain of low oil prices. “They’ve cut back on capital expenditures,” said Tom Kloza of the Oil Price Information Service. The door is open to some big consolidations because some oil producers are so highly leveraged.

One help to the big companies is that they are more fully integrated. While they may have trouble on the production end, they can still make money when it comes to refining oil. “As challenging as it has been upstream, it’s been wonderful downstream,” Kloza said. Downstream is industry terminology for refining and marketing.

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

Lazy summer days? Not on Wall Street. Every weekend this summer investors have been on high alert due to a string of crises — most breaking over the weekend — that has upped the market temperature to a boiling point.

The long, hot summer kicked off late on June 26 when Greece’s Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras shocked markets by saying Athens wouldn’t pay back money owed to the IMF by a key deadline, then made things worse by saying he was putting the country’s bailout up for a referendum vote. The Dow Jones industrial average plunged 350 points on June 29.

Then over the July 4 weekend, Greece again set off market-relat-

ed fireworks, as the nation voted ‘No’ that Sunday in the referendum, raising fears of a Greek exit from the eurozone. The Dow fell another 47 points on July 6.

More hot news hit July 12 when Greece sealed an 85billion-euro bailout deal with its creditors. The Dow rallied 217 points July 13. The next week saw a slew of weak U.S. earnings spark a five-day losing streak for the Dow. Then China markets became the hottest story of the summer Monday, tumbling 8.5% while Wall Street was sleeping, sparking a 128-point Dow swoon.

Well, here’s to Wall Street finally having a relaxing weekend.

In the pipeline for Friday are earnings reports from oil giants Phillips 66, Chevron and Exxon.

And a final look at July consumer confidence is unlikely to cause a market tantrum. Hopefully, this weekend will be free of crises.

Analysts prove guarded about grocer’s future Q: Will Whole Foods come back?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Whole Foods used to be the grocery store others wanted to be and stock investors wanted to own. Neither is true now — and the road back will be tough and too trying for many investors.

The organic food seller is undergoing the transition from a key player in a niche market to a middle-size contender in a crowded space. The company’s revenue growth over the past 12 onths has fallen to just 9% over the past 12 months — down dramatically from its nearly 16% growth at the same time in 2012.

Investors have bailed on Whole Foods’ stock this year — sending it down 29% — as the company gets squeezed from both sides. Smaller players such as Sprouts Farmers Market are coming from a smaller base of revenue and can put up faster revenue growth. Larger grocers such as Kroger are able to add more organic foods and drive cost controls.

Analysts are guarded about the stock, rating it a “hold.” Analysts are calling for revenue to rise 9% this year and 8.4% in 2016 — not returning to double-digit revenue growth until 2017, S&P Capital IQ says. The company’s profit and earnings miss in the second quarter doesn’t help.

Analysts aren’t braced for disaster, either, saying the stock should be worth $41.19 a share in 18 months, up 15%.

Economy bounces back as GDP grows 2.3% in second quarter Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY

The U.S. economy bounced back in the second quarter on stronger consumer spending, exports and home construction, and its performance in the first quarter wasn’t as feeble as initially believed. Gross domestic product — the value of goods and services produced in the U.S. — expanded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 2.3% in the April-June period, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Economists sur-

veyed by Bloomberg expected 2.5% growth.

The government also revised up its estimate for the first quarter, turning a 0.2% contraction into 0.6% growth, mostly because of stronger business investment and federal government spending. The still-weak showing has been largely blamed on temporary factors such as rough weather and a West Coast ports slowdown. Many expect the economy to grow by a solid 3% at an annual rate in the second half of the year.

But the government lowered estimates for 2011 to 2014, revealing that growth in that period was

somewhat weaker. The economy expanded by an average annual rate of 2%, below previous estimates of 2.3% The economy’s solid but not spectacular performance in the second quarter could help the Federal Reserve decide whether to raise interest rates for the first time in nearly a decade at its September meeting.

“The second-quarter U.S. GDP data support the Fed’s more upbeat tone on economic conditions and suggests that the economy could cope with higher interest rates,” Capital Economics economist Steve Murphy says.

The report paints “a reassuringly bright picture of the health of the U.S. economy so far this year,” says Markit’s chief economist Chris Williamson, and raises “the odds of the Fed hiking interest rates in September.”

Strong job and income growth and low gasoline prices prompted Americans to open their wallets in the second quarter as consumer spending increased 2.9%, up from 1.8% in the first quarter.

Consumption represents about two thirds of economic activity.

And exports jumped 5.3% after falling 6% previously. The strong dollar has hurt exports but its ef-

fects have eased. Snarled shipments from the port delays freed up in the spring, temporarily inflating total exports.

Outlays for home construction also jumped 6.6% as tight housing supplies and resurgent sales coaxed builders into expanding inventories. But business investment overall fell 0.6%, as energy companies continued to scale back drilling amid low oil prices.

Slower business stockpiling subtracted slightly from growth after adding to it in the first three months of the year. Federal government spending also fell modestly.

‘Mission’ is possible thanks to Tom Cruise ‘Rogue Nation’ rides on the star and his stunts Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY

Moments before Tom Cruise went airborne strapped to the side of an Airbus A400 for a daring Mission: Impossible stunt, director Christopher McQuarrie had a word with his superstar.

“Tom shouted above the engine, ‘Remember, if it looks like I’m panicking, I’m acting. Don’t cut,’ ” McQuarrie recalls. “I did a stunned about-face, knowing there would be no distinction between (true) panic and his performance.”

The dramatic stunt has been heralded as proof of what Cruise, 53, will do to push his career and Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation (in theaters Friday) into another adrenaline-filled realm.

“Name me one other actor in Hollywood who would do that stunt,” says Dave Karger, chief correspondent of the movie site Fandango.com.

“You can’t.

Because no one else would. Tom is superhuman that way.”

It’s how Cruise has stayed on top of the Hollywood pyramid, with occasional dips, for 30 years.

But it’s also the key to keeping the Mission: Impossible franchise excelling after nearly 20 years and four installments that have made more than $2 billion worldwide, according to Rentrak.

BO BRIDGES, PARAMOUNT

Speed demon Ethan Hunt (Cruise) wouldn’t be caught dead doing something uncool — like wearing a motorcycle helmet.

Ever since Cruise dangled more than 1,700 feet above ground from the world’s tallest building, Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, for 2011’s Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, filmmakers have sought to top that stunt.

“The shadow of the Burj Khalifa loomed large for months,” says producer David Ellison. “We continually talked about how we’re going to top that.”

The plane footage, motorcycle scenes raced without helmets, and an underwater sequence that required Cruise to hold his breath for six minutes all propel Mission: Impossible over the stunt bar raised by young audiences accustomed to seeing remarkable movie effects.

Cruise has been marketing the film on the media circuit with stunts such as lip-syncing The Weeknd’s Can’t Feel My Face on The Tonight Show. The viral video

alone was enough to show how little attention people paid to potentially detrimental aspects of Cruise’s personal life, including his involvement in the Church of Scientology as depicted in the HBO documentary Going Clear.

“Think of how many people saw Going Clear. A decent amount,” Karger says. “Now think of how many people saw the lip-sync challenge on (Jimmy) Fallon. Exponentially more.”

All the factors are enough to drive the well-reviewed Rogue Nation (93% critical approval on review aggregate site RottenTomatoes.com) to a predicted cake walk at this weekend’s box office.

Cruise has announced he’ll make a sixth Mission next summer.

The challenge: He needs a new power stunt to beat the A400.

“It’s always an incredibly tall task,” Ellison says. “But Tom Cruise always finds a way.”

Navigating the Early Stages of Your Realtor Search

By Liz WesLander

Hometown Lawrence

There is no shortage of choices when it comes to finding a realtor, and selecting the right one for you can be overwhelming. Here are some tips about how to navigate the early stages of your realtor search from Nicholas Lerner, a realtor at McGrew Real Estate and winner of the Best of Lawrence Best Realtor award for 2015.

Many people start their realtor search by asking around for recommendations. According to the National Association of Realtors’ latest Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, 40 percent of both buyers and sellers find their agent through word of mouth. While relying on recommendations from friends and family members is a great place to start, Lerner said it is important to ask the person recommending why he or she is referring the agent. Some

people simply recommend realtors who are friends or family members, Lerner said. A solid recommendation will come from someone who has worked with the agent in a home sale process.

Once you have a solid recommendation, the next step is contacting the potential realtor.

Lerner said that the number one complaint clients have about their agents is that they don’t communicate well or don’t communicate often enough, so paying attention to this initial point of contact is key.

“This first attempt at communication is probably a good indicator of how efficient communication will continue throughout the process,” Lerner said. “Did the agent answer the call or did you have to leave a voicemail and wait for the agent to get back to you many hours

later? Did the agent respond to that first email within a few minutes, or did it take a day to for the agent to get back?”

And while finding an agent who communicates with a timeliness that suits you is very important, so is finding an agent who can communicate in a style that suits you.

“Are you the type of person who prefers to text and email, but your agent doesn’t respond to anything except a phone call?,” said Lerner. “A good agent will be a master of all communication channels. I even have some clients that Facebook Messenger is our primary mode of communication.”

If the initial point of contact goes well, the next step with an agent should be an Initial Buyer Consultation (for a new buyer) or a Home Sale Consultation

(for a potential seller). Lerner recommends that clients use this meeting to get to know the agent and make sure they are a good fit.

“The home seller or buyer should view the agent as somebody interviewing for the job,” said Lerner. “Before anything

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Numbers crunch

HEAD COACH DAVID BEATY AND THE KANSAS UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM CLOSE THEIR SPRING GAME by singing the KU Alma Mater. Beaty inherits a squad woefully short of numbers and one that is looking for walk-ons to fill the gaps.

Failed recruiting efforts leave Jayhawks short-handed

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

It’s no secret that first-year head coach David Beaty and the Kansas University football program are dealing with a light deck heading into the 2015 season.

Because of a number of past transactions that did not pan out — either because of eligibility, academics or attitude — the Jayhawks will open the upcoming season nearly an entire recruiting class short of the allowed number of 85 scholarship players.

This news is nothing new, but it is arguably the biggest challenge facing Beaty and his staff, as they prepare to take on one of the toughest sched-

ules in the country with inexperienced players and very little depth.

Because of the way the rules are set up, where programs can sign a maximum of 25 players in any given recruiting class, Beaty knows that getting the numbers up will not be something he can fix overnight.

Asked last week at Big 12 media days in Dallas how he planned to go about getting back to a full deck, Beaty laid out a clear and concise plan.

“You have small senior classes, which is gonna take a few years,” he began. “It’s gonna be another 25 (seniors) next year and then after that it’s gonna start scaling back to around 17 or 18 (seniors per class), which allows you to still sign 25 (in-

coming players) and now all of a sudden you get eight more and now you move it up. And then the next year you get eight more. And then you get up to 85. It’ll probably take us a couple of years to get there. We’ll see.”

Various loopholes in the recruiting process allow for programs to add an extra player or two each year here and there — via blue shirts (counting forward), gray shirts (player walks on for fall semester and then starts on scholarship in the spring) or other one-time exemptions — but there are very few shortcuts to climbing out of such a big hole and Beaty knows he’ll have to get creative to survive.

One such way he’s gone about that is through aggressively pursuing

walk-ons, particularly those in the state, who may be swayed to pass up lower-level scholarship offers by the opportunity to compete for playing time at KU. “We’ve got a lot of great players in that state that are going to other places,” Beaty said. “But they want to come to their university.”

Because the process of recruiting walk-ons is so tricky — non-scholarship players must remain unrecruited and even so much as a phone call can make them ineligible — Beaty said landing talented walk-ons who could help KU, both in terms of depth and potentially in the regular Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C

Bolden schedules Duke visit, will still visit Kansas

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

College basketball recruiting notebook. ...

Texas high school power forward deluxe Marques Bolden, who attended last season’s Late Night in the Phog on an unofficial campus visit, will visit Duke officially Sept. 18-19, according to ESPN.com.

Bolden, a 6-10, 240-pound senior from DeSoto High, tells Jayhawkslant.com he will definitely make an official visit to KU at a yet-tobe-determined date. Rivals. com’s No. 14-rated player in the Class of 2016 is also considering Kentucky, LSU, Baylor, SMU North Carolina, Louisville, Texas, N.C. State, Oklahoma and others. l Fox update: De’Aaron Fox, a 6-3 senior point guard from Cypress Lakes High in

Katy, Texas, who is ranked No. 9 nationally, picked up scholarship offers from Kentucky and North Carolina after scoring 35 points for Houston Hoops AAU in a win over Arizona Power Black in last week’s Las Vegas Classic.

Fox is considering KU, UK, UNC, Arizona, Texas, Louisville, Baylor, Oklahoma State and others.

“I really don’t want to give anything away because I’m cutting my list down to about six or seven in about two weeks or maybe less than two weeks,” Fox told Arizona.rivals.com. “I don’t want to say anything that puts anybody ahead of anybody, but they (Arizona Wildcats) have made it a priority to try and get me.

“You don’t want to go somewhere expecting to be a one-and-done but that coach has never had a one-

and-done kid,” Fox added.

“If it’s never happened in history there’s a small percent chance you can do it.

That’s why everyone wants to go to Kentucky. They want to be a one-and-done.

I watch that stuff. I really think about stuff. I analyze the game and analyze what the coach does and analyze what they’ve done the last 10 years and stuff like that.

It’s great knowing what I’m coming into.”

Fox, who averaged 16.8 points and 5.4 assists in summertime EYBL play, is definitely doing his homework.

“Every school that’s going to be on my list they win,” he told Arizona.rivals.com.

“The last three years every school on my list they’ve been at least a top-four team going into the NCAA tournament. They put guys into the league and I just want to

go to a great situation where I can excel and try to take my talents to the NBA.” Fox is planning on taking five official visits and announcing his choice sometime in December.

“There’s a lot to like about Fox,” writes Ricky O’Donnell of SBnation.com.

“At 6-4 with elite quickness and good instincts both scoring and facilitating, he likely projects as the best two-way point guard in the class. He grabbed 48 steals in 17 EYBL games (2.8 per game), leading the circuit in that category. It’s no wonder that Shaka Smart and Texas are all over him. This is the perfect point guard to the play the type of pressure defense by which Smart’s teams have always been deTEXAS BIG MAN MARQUES BOLDEN will visit make fined.

Brady’s legacy tarnished It turns out, Tom Brady’s cellphone wasn’t the only thing that was destroyed.

So, too, was any remaining shard of belief in his competitive integrity, every last piece blown to smithereens with 10,000 text messages and one giant lie.

Does anybody still believe the NFL’s most celebrated player didn’t purposely deflate footballs in an attempt to gain an advantage during last season’s NFL playoffs?

Does anybody still think his legacy should not include the word “cheater?”

Brady was actually lucky Tuesday when the NFL upheld his four-game suspension. In the wake of the league’s accompanying revelation that Brady ordered the destruction of a cellphone that was one of the centerpieces of the investigation, he is fortunate Commissioner Roger Goodell didn’t double the penalty to eight games. Or more.

If the NFL had been willing to take a big hit for the sake of fairness, the investigation could have been completed in a week last January and Brady never would have been allowed to play in — and win — the Super Bowl.

But at least the right thing has finally happened, and Goodell showed he would not be intimidated by powerful New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and an organization that has become the modern-day Raiders.

As quickly as one can pound a cellphone with a hammer, the NFL Players Association announced it was going to appeal the suspension, and there is some thought that Brady will seek an injunction in federal court that will allow him to keep playing during the appeal process. That could really be a hoot. Can you imagine Brady playing most of the Patriots season and then forced out of the postseason if the appeal is lost?

Brady is probably counting on the appeal taking several years, long enough for him to eventually disappear into retirement. And that’s fine. He might never miss a game. The NFL could lose the entire case.

It doesn’t matter.

By upholding the suspension of its most marketable player — Tom Brady jersey sales currently lead the league — the point has been made that cheaters will be punished, and that arrogant cheaters will be shown no mercy, and that Tom Brady is both.

In the league statement upholding Brady’s suspension, Goodell said Brady “went beyond a mere failure to cooperate in the investigation and supported a finding that he had sought to hide evidence of his own participation in the scheme.”

Hide. Scheme. The words paint a picture that even Tom Brady cannot destroy.

DAVID PRICE DELIVERS FOR DETROIT against Tampa Bay on Tuesday in St. Petersburg, Florida.

The Tigers traded Price to the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday.

Blue Jays acquire Price from Tigers Detroit — Toronto acquired All-Star lefthander David Price from the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, the second major move in less than a week by the Blue Jays as they chase their first postseason appearance since 1993.

After obtaining slugging shortstop Troy Tulowitzki from Colorado, the Blue Jays tried to shore up their rotation by adding Price, likely the top remaining starting pitcher on the market. Johnny Cueto was traded from Cincinnati to Kansas City, and Cole Hamels is headed from Philadelphia to Texas.

The Blue Jays sent left-handers Daniel Norris, Matt Boyd and Jairo Labourt to the Tigers in the deal. Price can become a free agent after this season.

Speaking in the Detroit clubhouse before the Tigers faced the Orioles in Baltimore, Price was excited about joining a contender — even if he did refer to the Blue Jays as “they” instead of “we.”

“They’ve got a good thing going on right now in Toronto,” he said. “They’ve kind of been in this situation before and didn’t make these type of moves. It definitely shows you that they want to win right now. You have to respect that. You have to like it and that’s what you want to be a part of.”

Toronto has scored more runs than any other team in the major leagues but still had a .500 record heading into Thursday night’s game against the Royals. The Blue Jays trailed Minnesota by two games for the AL’s second wild card and were seven behind the AL Eastleading New York Yankees.

Now, however, the Blue Jays appear ripe to make a run.

Cardinals, who were in the market for an outfielder after seven-time All-Star Matt Holliday re-injured his right quadriceps on Wednesday.

In exchange for Moss, who was in his first season with the Indians, the Indians received minor-league pitcher Rob Kaminsky, a firstround pick in 2013.

Holliday is out again with the same injury that sidelined him for 31 games earlier this season.

Pirates acquire Soria Cincinnati — The Pittsburgh Pirates have made another move to upgrade their bullpen, acquiring right-hander Joakim Soria from the Detroit Tigers for a minor leaguer.

Pittsburgh gave up infielder JaCoby Jones.

They will have to make a move to create a roster spot when Soria joins the team, which opened a four-game series in Cincinnati on Thursday.

Royals ship Blanton to Bucs Kansas City, Mo. — The Royals have traded right-hander Joe Blanton to the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash considerations.

Blanton, 34, was designated for assignment Tuesday, when Johnny Cueto reported to the Kansas City following his trade from Cincinnati.

Blanton was 2-2 with a 3.89 ERA in four starts and 11 relief appearances this season.

A former first-round draft pick, Blanton is 8791 in 11 major-league seasons.

Gomez traded to Astros

Houston — The Astros have added another bat to their lineup as they make a push for the postseason by acquiring two-time All-Star Dodgers deal for pitchers outfielder Carlos Gomez from the Milwaukee Atlanta — The first-place Los Angeles Brewers.

Dodgers have bolstered their pitching staff, Houston, which also received right-hander acquiring Mat Latos from the Miami Marlins Mike Fiers in the deal, sent four prospects to and Alex Wood, Jim Johnson and Luis Avilan the Brewers: left-hander Josh Hader, rightfrom the Atlanta Braves in a 13-player deal. hander Adrian Houser and outfielders Brett The rebuilding Braves also gave up top infield Phillips and Domingo Santana. prospect Jose Peraza in Thursday’s trade, The 29-year-old Gomez is hitting .262 with paying a hefty price largely to land 30-yeareight homers and 43 RBIs in 74 games for the old Cuban infielder Hector Olivera at a steep Brewers this season.

“We did it with a finetoothed comb,” Beaty said of the process that began almost immediately and ended with KU capping the number of walk-ons it took because interest was so high. “We were very direct and we were very smart. It took an enormous amount of organization.”

Football is full of wild success stories about former walk-ons becoming stars. And although he would take that outcome as many times as he could get it, Beaty is more interested in this first batch of walk-ons being solid rather than spectacular.

“Most people have three deep, well there’s ghosts at three deep for us right now,” he admitted. “We have two deep, but we don’t have three deep. So for a walk-on, instead of being four or five right off the bat, you’re third.”

While the list of walkons is long and remains fluid even throughout preseason camp, Beaty already has been impressed by what he has seen.

“There’s probably two or three guys right now that are freshmen coming in that are walk-ons and what I see them doing in our strength and conditioning and our movement stuff that we can watch, I think they can help us,” he said. “And I think they can help us early, which is good because we don’t have enough numbers.”

Wiley, a 6-10 junior forward from Spain Park High in Birmingham, Alabama, has narrowed his choices to KU, Alabama, Auburn, Duke, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU, Michigan State, Mississippi State, North Carolina, UAB and Vanderbilt. He made the announcement Tuesday on Twitter. Wiley averaged 19.0 points and 12.2 boards his junior season. He’s ranked No. 15 in the Class of 2017 by Rivals.com.

KU swimmer to compete at Worlds J-W Staff Reports

Kansas University backstroker Yulduz Kuchkarova will compete against top competition at the 2015 FINA World Championships next week in Kazan, Russia.

The Tashkent, Uzbekistan, native will make her fourth appearance at the World Championships during the second day of swimming competition inside Kazan Arena on Monday. Kuchkarova is slated to compete in the 50- and 100-meter backstroke over a four-day span and could add the 200-meter swim to her program.

Last year Kuchkarova recorded two of Kansas’ all-time fastest marks in the 100- and 200-yard backstroke and will be

looking to rewrite Jayhawk history in the 201516 collegiate season.

“This is a big step toward international-level success,” Kansas head coach Clark Campbell said. “If you look at the four-year calendar for swimming, this is the second-most important meet behind the Olympics - it’s the best aquatic athletes in the entire world.”

Kuchkarova will be one of seven Uzbekistani’s representing their home country during the 16-day event. She will swim her first race, the 100-meter backstroke, at 9:30 a.m. (in Kazan) Monday with the semifinals during the evening session. With a qualifying time, Kuchkarova would swim in the finals at 7:17 p.m., the following day.

1860s baseball card brings $179K New York (ap) — A circa 1860s Brooklyn Atlantics team baseball card that’s been in the same family for over 150 years has fetched over $179,000 at auction.

The pre-Civil War baseball card was owned by Florence Sasso of Great Barrington, Massachusetts.

It shows her great-greatuncle Archibald Mc-

Mahon, an outfielder for the squad, pictured with eight of his teammates in bib-style shirts and two gentlemen in suits.

The card had a presale estimate of $50,000.

The Atlantics were a founding member of the National Association of Base Ball Players — the sport’s first organized league.

Toronto (ap) — Kansas City’s Danny Duffy doesn’t often give up a lot of home runs. That changed against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Dioner Navarro hit a two-run homer, Russell Martin and Josh Donaldson added solo shots and the Blue Jays beat Duffy and the Royals 5-2 on Thursday night.

“I just didn’t make pitches when I needed to,” Duffy said. “They capitalized excellently on every single one of my mistakes.”

Duffy (4-5) allowed five runs and six hits in six innings, losing for the first time since June 30, at Houston.

“I’m better than that, I’m a lot better than I displayed tonight,” he said.

The three home runs were one more than Duffy had surrendered in his four previous starts combined.

“He gave up six hits but three of them resulted in four runs,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

The Blue Jays have homered in 12 consecutive games since the AllStar break, their longest streak of the season.

“That’s what we do best,” Toronto manager John Gibbons said.

Kansas City, which lost 12-1 at Cleveland on Wednesday, allowed three homers in consecutive games for the first time this season.

“You make a mistake and they can hammer it a long way,” Yost said of the Blue Jays. “These guys are really good.”

Toronto won its second straight hours after landing former Cy Young Award winner David Price in a deal with Detroit.

Navarro and Price played together for three seasons in Tampa Bay, reaching the World Series in 2008, Price’s rookie campaign.

Price was not with the Blue Jays on Thursday but is expected to join them Friday. Toronto has not said when Price will make his first start but Sunday is a possibility.

The left-hander is the second major acquisition of the week by the Blue Jays, who landed shortstop Troy Tulowitzki on Tuesday.

“I thought even before we made the moves we were a good team and we just got better,” Blue Jays starter Marco Estrada said.

Estrada (8-6) allowed two runs and three hits in 5 2-3 innings. Estrada left after Lorenzo Cain’s two-out single in the sixth ended his run of 15 straight outs. Brett Cecil came on and retired Eric Hosmer.

LaTroy Hawkins pitched the seventh, Aaron Sanchez worked the eighth and Roberto Osuna finished for his sixth save.

Kendrys Morales put the Royals in front with a two-run double in the first inning but Toronto answered in the bottom half on Jose Bautista’s sacrifice fly.

Kevin Pillar reached on a bloop single to begin the second and Navarro followed with a drive to left.

Martin extended the lead with a one-out drive in the third and Donaldson made it 5-2 with a second-deck blast in the fourth, his team-high 25th.

Ben Zobrist made his debut with the Royals, batting sixth and starting in left field. Zobrist, who was acquired from Oakland on Tuesday, went 0 for 4, grounding out to end the game.

Larry Brown meets with NCAA

By Brad Townsend The Dallas Morning News

Reached Thursday

by The Dallas Morning News in the aftermath of a Wednesday-night Yahoo Sports report regarding his school’s June appearance before the NCAA Committee on Infraction, SMU coach Larry Brown reiterated there is little he and the school can say until the NCAA renders judgment.

SMU acknowledged in January its basketball and golf programs were under NCAA investigation.

A source said Thursday that SMU’s appearance before the NCAA Committee on Infractions occurred in mid-June.

SMU’s appearance before the committee means the NCAA’s investigation is complete. The June hear-

ing was for SMU to respond to the findings of NCAA enforcement investigators.

Typically, once a school appears before the Committee on Infractions, the committee takes six-to-eight weeks to render a judgment.

If penalties are recommended, the school then would have 15 days in which to appeal.

“I can’t comment about this ongoing NCAA investigation,” Brown told The News when reached by phone. “I won’t give the writer (Pat Forde) any credibility by doing that. It’s a process that we’re dealing with right now. I’m not going to comment on it. The university came out with a statement in January about it and I thought it was pretty specific.

“I’m confident we’re going to move on and continue to try to do the right thing.”

According to the Yahoo Sports report, Brown faces a “lack of coach control” charge. NCAA enforcement officials, according to Yahoo, investigated whether a former secretary of Brown’s and former SMU assistant coach Ulric Maligi assisted guard Keith Frazier with coursework.

Frazier was ruled academically ineligible in January, the same month in which Maligi took an indefinite leave of absence. Maligi now is the national scouting director for John Lucas Enterprises in Houston.

A source said Thursday that Maligi’s leave of absence was a case of SMU self-imposing amid

the NCAA’s investigation.

Wednesday’s Yahoo report inferred that Frazier’s being declared academically ineligible was linked to the NCAA investigation. A source said Thursday, however, that the NCAA investigation was focused on whether the secretary and Maligi assisted Frazier with an online course before he even enrolled at SMU — a course it turned out he didn’t even need, once his complete high school transcripts came in.

The source said that when Frazier was declared ineligible in January, it was due to his grade-point average at SMU. Frazier, the source said, is currently enrolled in summer school and doing well.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Upton powers Padres The Associated Press

National League Padres 8, Mets 7 New York — Justin Upton hit a three-run homer through a driving rain with two outs in the ninth inning, and San Diego stunned New York on Thursday as the Padres overcame a six-run deficit during a game delayed nearly four hours by two storms.

With a darkening sky overhead, Jeurys Familia entered with a 7-5 lead and recorded two quick outs in the ninth before a torrential downpour stopped play. Frustrated, the Mets closer stood on the mound as the other players cleared the field.

When play resumed 44 minutes later, Derrick Norris fell behind 0-2 before singling for his career-high fifth hit. Matt Kemp singled as the rain began again and Upton, in what could be his final at-bat with the Padres, sent the first pitch soaring to right-center for San Diego’s first lead.
