Racism dominates talk at school board meeting

By Joanna Hlavacek

jhlavacek@ljworld.com

Compared to City Commission, most Lawrence school board meetings are relatively quiet affairs that occur, usually twice a month, with little public participation.

Monday evening’s installment, however, proved to be anything but a “typical meeting” for the school board, as local Black Lives Matter organizer Caleb Stephens

‘‘

The people that are here right now don’t have time to be here today. We’re here because this is important, because we prioritize our children.”

— Local Black Lives Matter organizer Caleb Stephens

pointed out to an unusually packed meeting room at the Lawrence district offices that night.

“The people that are here right now don’t have time to be here today,” Stephens said. “We’re here because this is important, because we

prioritize our children.”

Stephens, along with approximately two dozen concerned citizens and parents, had attended the meeting to voice their unease — and, in some cases, outrage — over the district’s handling of a South Middle School teacher

who last week was accused of making racist comments in class.

The teacher, whom the district has declined to name because of confidentiality reasons, is now suspended (with pay) in accordance with the school board’s policy in order “to ensure a fair and complete investigation” of the matter, a district-issued news release said at the time.

But that answer, which

take effect in July 2017. But city attorneys, as well as the League of Kansas Municipalities, have interpreted the exemption period differently.

The city is preparing for the law to take effect in January 2018, in accordance with the language of the law before its most recent amendment, according to Assistant City Attorney Maria Garcia.

“Because that language happened after we had our original exemption in 2013, we are still interpreting the previous language that allowed us to have four years after we took it,” Garcia said. “And so, that’s our interpretation, that’s how we read it.”

nless the city pays to have metal detectors and guards at the entrances, about 50 public buildings will have to allow concealed firearms once a new state law goes into effect. As the date draws closer, city leaders are examining options.

“Because of disparate locations that so many of our operations are in, to try to provide security would be an overwhelming and hugely expensive task to accomplish,” said City Manager Tom Markus. “The state has handed us a fairly large challenge in that regard.”

The state’s Personal and Family Protection Act was passed in 2013, and allows concealed weapons in public buildings that don’t contain metal detectors and guards. The law included an exemption period, the length of which has been the subject of some debate.

The University of Kansas, for instance, is preparing for the law to

The Haskell Indian Nations University student fighting to criminally convict two male students she said raped her in a dorm is now suing the university and federal officials under Title IX. As she struggled to stay in school through lengthy criminal court cases against the men — which remain unresolved two years later — Haskell administrators treated her unfairly on campus and also violated her privacy by unlawfully giving her counseling records to one man’s defense attorney without a court subpoena, the lawsuit alleges.

The lawsuit also accuses Haskell of allowing the environment that led to the woman being raped, specifically that Haskell employees knew the school’s no-alcohol policies and curfew hours were not being enforced. The assailants, both football players, were drinking heavily that night in November 2014 and had the woman in their dorm room after curfew, according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit was filed Monday in federal court, according to the woman’s attorney, Dan Curry of the Brown & Curry law firm in Kansas City, Mo., who provided a copy of the petition.

Curry also is representing Angelina Adams, the Haskell counselor who worked with the student after her rape report, in a related federal lawsuit filed earlier this month.

The infant boy was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, Flick said.

A preliminary autopsy led investigators to believe the boy’s death was suspicious, Flick said. As the investigation continued, the

department requested help from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office.

“Eudora is a smaller town department and with the amount of interviews that needed to be done we needed a few more investigators,” Flick said.

BRIEFLY Kansas State Fair attendance in 2016 third highest ever Hutchinson (ap) — The Kansas State Fair recorded its third highest attendance ever this year.

General Manager Susan Sankey said 359,808 people visited the 10-day fair, the third highest number in the event’s 104-year history.

The Hutchinson News reports that 2015 was a record-breaking year for fair attendance with 369,322 visitors, beating the previous record set in 1995 at 361,647.

The men she said raped her, who are not named in the Title IX lawsuit, are Jared Wheeler and Galen Satoe. Both were criminally charged with rape and expelled from Haskell following the woman’s report.

Wheeler and Satoe’s criminal trials both ended with hung juries this summer, and the two men are scheduled for their second trials in December 2016 and February 2017, respectively.

Defendants named in the Title IX suit are Haskell Indian Nations University, the United States of America, U.S. Department of Interior Secretary Sally Jewell and three individual Haskell administrators:

But on Monday, public comments delayed the school board’s regular business by roughly an hour. Attendees snapped their fingers in approval and voiced opinions from the back and doorway of the meeting room as Trinity Carpenter, another organizer with the Lawrence chapter of Black Lives Matter, spoke about her experience with parents and school administration in the aftermath of the South allegations.

She said there were also concerns raised that the incident was not the first time racially charged comments had been made in a classroom setting at South.

that counts as regulating the manner in which it’s being carried,” Garcia said.

Instead, the city is limited to putting “adequate security measures” in place, such as metal detectors, metal-detector wands and guards. The use of security measures at building entrances would allow the city to prohibit guns in those buildings. But the cost of equipment and personnel limits how much municipalities can do.

As part of 2017 budget discussions, a plan was proposed, but ultimately not pursued, that would have put metal detectors

When asked about the timeline of the district’s investigation into the teacher, Superintendent Kyle Hayden said the procedures would “take a little bit of time” but did not offer specifics.

“From a process standpoint, with an investigation, we need to have conversations potentially with students (and) with other staff members that work in the building,” said Hayden, who earlier that evening read aloud a letter expressing his own personal commitment to the district’s equity efforts. “Obviously as school is in progress, we want to make that as least disruptive as possible to the educational environment, because they are there to receive an education.”

and guards at four of the most frequented city buildings: City Hall, Lawrence Municipal Court, Lawrence Public Library and the police department’s Investigations and Training Center.

Those buildings were also deemed high priority because their visitors include “persons who may become impassioned and emotional during their visit,” according to the plan document. The estimated cost of that plan ranged from about $530,000 to $895,000, depending on personnel salaries. Markus said at the time that the

The answer, again, did not seem to satisfy Stephens and his peers, who at times raised their voices and became noticeably emotional in relaying their experiences with what they described as institutionalized racism within the school system.

But the school board members, who met that evening with “Black Lives Matter” cards adorning each of their name placards, did ultimately stand in support of the several concerned parents, at least one of whom said she’d taken time off work to attend the meeting.

Board member Jessica Beeson, among others on the school board, said “it’s just not acceptable that people don’t feel like they have a safe place to go and that we’re not listening.” That, she and

proposal was stricken from the 2017 budget because of its expense, as well as an upcoming effort to consolidate locations.

Consolidating some city facilities would be one way to use metal detectors and guards more efficiently. The city owns the building that houses City Hall, but leases the building at 1006 New Hampshire St., where Lawrence Municipal Court is located. That lease is set to expire in 2017, but could be extended, according to City Attorney Toni Wheeler.

But Markus said no

Home’s license was ordered to forego an emergency suspension, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. The reason for the suspension is listed only as “Child Care Practices.”

The emergency order is now under appeal and awaiting a hearing, according to the KDHE. During annual surveys

conducted by the KDHE and ranging back to 2014, the day care has been noted as having several violations stemming from incomplete medical records and one violation involving a child sleeping in a closed area, away from a staff member, online reports indicate.

Bureau of Indian Education spokeswoman Nedra Darling said Monday night that the bureau does not comment on matters in litigation.

The woman is seeking a jury trial and an unspecified amount of money to compensate her for attorney expenses and other damages.

“Plaintiff strove to continue as a HINU student while cooperating with the Douglas County, Kansas, prosecutor’s office as the complaining witness in the two criminal cases against her assailants,” the lawsuit says.

The defendants in the suit knew she had developed a medical/psychological condition as a result of the rapes that interfered with her ability to complete her courses,

The woman’s lawsuit accuses Haskell administrators of intentionally pressuring a male student with whom she’d had an altercation in the spring to file a “baseless” Title IX complaint against her so they could “get rid of her.” the suit said. Not only did the assaults cause her “extreme emotional distress,” the ongoing demands of the criminal proceedings also took a toll — “each postponed several times by many months, with each delay delivering more emotional turmoil to Plaintiff and prolonging the stress she faced and rendering her suicidal at times.”

On April 1, 2016, Haskell administrators expelled the woman and banned her from campus without conducting an investigation or giving her due process, the lawsuit said. The discipline was for a physical altercation the woman had with a male student in one of Haskell’s dorms, which resulted in bruises on the woman’s arm, according to the lawsuit.

This June, the first of the two men’s criminal trials began.

“During that trial, HINU administrators provided the criminal attorney for Plaintiff’s assailant with copies of her education and medical records without being compelled by a subpoena and without notice to her,” the lawsuit says.

“The defense relied on information gleaned from these records, and the trial resulted in a hung jury.”

The second man’s trial began in July, and Haskell again prepared to release the woman’s private records without notice to her, until her counselor, Adams, intervened, according to the lawsuit.

Before the discussion began, school board president Marcel Harmon read a letter that officially expressed the board’s solidarity with Black Lives Matter, Standing Rock, LGBTQ groups and women’s rights efforts.

“Our schools are on the front line for creating the change needed to stop the perpetuation of institutionalized racism and other social injustices,” Harmon said. “We ask that staff and the community stand with us, stay engaged and help steady us when we occasionally stumble along the path towards equity.”

“We haven’t made any conclusions about any number of buildings or which buildings or which services we provide,” Markus said.

to the Regents’ request for proposals: Academic Search; AGB Search; Isaacson, Miller; Parker Executive Search; RPA Inc.; R. William Funk; and Witt/ Kieffer.

One of the firms, R. William Funk and Associates, is the same that the Regents used in KU’s last chancellor search, when Gray-Little was hired. Over the course of that search, the Regents spent more than $120,700 on search consultant fees, according to figures obtained by the JournalWorld for a 2010 report.

KU also contracted with R. William Funk and Associates in its recent provost search, after which KU School of Business Dean Neeli

Bendapudi was hired as provost effective this summer.

The Regents are using Academic Search for their current search for a new president at Kansas State University.

The Regents’ request for proposals summarizes KU’s enrollment, various campuses and academic programs — highlighting the numbers of Rhodes Scholars, millions of dollars in research grants and a few highly successful alumni, among other points of pride for the university.

Requirements listed in the document indicate a desire to find a firm with a track record of recruiting leaders at large schools comparable to KU and the

ability to attract qualified candidates including those from “underrepresented populations.”

The scope of services listed in the document also addresses confidentiality, noting that the chosen firm must “maintain all applications, resumes, and related materials in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of state and federal law and which is designed to preserve the confidentiality of all prospective candidates for the position.”

The Regents have yet to vote on whether the KU chancellor search will be open or closed — meaning no candidates will be publicly announced except the one who is ultimately hired — but Regents have

indicated it is likely that the search will be closed, in keeping with KU’s last chancellor search and KState’s ongoing search.

The executive committee of KU’s University Senate, however, has formally asked the Regents to conduct an open search that would require finalists for the position to make a public presentation to the university community.

Besides hiring a consulting firm, next steps by the Regents will include approving a chancellor search committee chairperson and members and, later, a job description to advertise for the position.

Kansas self-defense law in limbo Brownback pick for KDOT leader may be hard sell Topeka (ap) — The state’s self-defense law is in legal limbo while the Kansas Supreme Court prepares to consider the issue.

The key question is: How should district courts determine whether someone is acting in selfdefense or in defense of others? As the Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments in a stand-yourground case, the Kansas Court of Appeals earlier this month overturned two other district court rulings that invoked the law.

Because of the rulings, one man could now stand trial for attempted voluntary manslaughter and another for first-degree murder. Previously, the men had been shielded from prosecution, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported.

One of the recently overturned cases stems from the December 2014 killing of Jeremy Pascascio outside a grocery store in Garden City. Loren

Wiseman said he opened fire after Pascascio hurled a slew of expletives and threatened to kill Wiseman and his girlfriend.

“You need to leave us alone or I will shoot you,” Wiseman told Pascascio, according to testimony.

At one point, according to court documents, Pascascio told Wiseman, “You think I’m scared of you and your gun? You’re going to have to kill me.”

Wiseman said he would give Pascascio five seconds to leave before he would shoot. He counted down from five but did not pull the trigger. He then said Pascascio would have 10 seconds to leave before he would shoot. He counted down from 10. When he reached three, Pascascio said, “I’ve got something for you” and reached for his waistband, according to Wiseman.

Believing Pascascio was reaching for a gun, Wiseman rolled down the window and opened fire.

No weapons were found on or near Pascascio.

Prosecutors appealed when Finney County District Court Judge Michael Quint ordered Wiseman released from custody and dismissed the firstdegree murder charge against him. The appeals court agreed with the state, saying Quint should have placed more importance on evidence that Pascascio never entered the vehicle, that Pascascio didn’t have a weapon, that Wiseman had time to count down twice — and therefore had time to avoid shooting Pascascio.

“A reasonable person could conclude that someone in genuine fear of imminent death or substantial harm would not be as deliberate as to count down twice before shooting or as concerned about property damage as to manually roll down the window rather than shooting through it,” Judge Steve Leben wrote.

G

ov. Sam Brownback officially named Richard Carlson to be the next permanent secretary of the Kansas Department of Transportation and director of the Kansas Turnpike Authority, but some are already saying he could face opposition when he comes up Carlson for confirmation by the Kansas Senate.

Carlson has been serving as interim secretary since July following the resignation of former KDOT Secretary Mike King.

But he is best known as a former Republican legislator from St. Marys who chaired the House Taxation Committee, where he was instrumental in pushing through

Brownback’s sweeping tax cut proposals in 2012 and 2013.

Brownback expressed confidence in his pick, saying Carlson “brings both experience and a deep understanding of Kansas and its citizens to this position. I appreciate his commitment to serving the state and know that he will be a strong and positive leader for KDOT.” But Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka, said Carlson could face a tough confirmation process. “I would be reluctant to send his confirmation out of committee,” he said.

“There can be a pretty strong case made against his confirmation from the standpoint that

Mindful of state pressure and their past promises, Eudora City Commissioners indicated Monday they wanted to start moving forward in January on two major city water projects.

The two projects at issue are the proposed installation of a 12-inch waterline from the water tower in Paschal Fish Park to Winchester Road for an estimated $348,000 and the development of a water well donated to the city, which could cost $250,000.

Rural KS plagued with slow internet The Wichita Eagle

Allen, Kan. (ap) — Christianne Parks says if rural Kansas can’t keep up with the internet, she’s probably out of here.

“Eventually, I probably would get bored out of my mind and leave,” said Parks, a 19-year-old who lives in Allen and is studying psychology at Emporia State University 20 miles to the south.

The slow rollout of high-speed broadband internet service is the latest existential threat to rural Kansas, according to Wichita Eagle.

The sparsely populated region has been losing population for decades as farms have consolidated.

That in turn led to steep declines in Main Street businesses.

Since 2000, 81 of Kansas’ 105 counties have lost population, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The consensus is that trend will get worse - especially among young people - until and unless someone can find a way

Matite and Leslie Herring, assistant to the city manager, explained the deadline to apply for the 2017 CDBG program was Sept. 30, but there was usually unawarded money available for later applications.

Should grants be unavailable, the city would explore KDHE low-interest loans to finance the projects, Matite said. He asked the commissioners allow the grant and loan explorations to continue before considering the two projects again in January, when the city would know its water fund yearend balance and have a clearer picture of where the fund stood.

There is some pressure from the state to move forward.

Lois Hamilton donated the water well northwest of the city to Eudora in 2010. In May 2015, the Kansas Department of Agriculture’s Division of Water Resources authorized assigning the well’s water rights to Eudora should the city make it operational by the end of 2015. The city

The overarching issue is how to pay for replacing thousands of miles of obsolete copper wire with modern fiber-optic cable, without making internet service so expensive for customers that only businesses and the wealthy would be able to afford it.

The costs are staggering, about $20,000 a mile for fiber cable to serve widely dispersed customers in small villages and isolated farms.

The government is taking notice.

Seeking to keep Parks and others like her — educated young people who everyone agrees are vital to saving rural Kansas — two of the nation’s top rural communications

officials visited on a factfinding mission.

Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts brought Ajit Pai, a member of the Federal Communications Commission, to Allen to meet with officials from about a dozen small telephone companies who are facing difficulty upgrading their networks.

The FCC makes the regulations for the system, and much of the money to pay for rural broadband expansion flows through the Senate Agriculture Committee, which Roberts chairs.

“I don’t know of anybody on the Senate Agriculture Committee, on either side, who does not want to further expand our investment in broadband,” Roberts said. “The support is there. The problem of course is the budget.”

At present, rural Kansas has a patchwork of high- and low-speed internet. Some companies have bitten the cost bullet and installed the fiber.

Others still rely on outdated early DSL technology that comes through the regular phone line.

subsequently received a one-year extension to make those improvements.

Eudora Public Works Director Mike Hutto said a 2-year-old estimate placed the cost of upgrading the well for use at $150,000. Another $100,000 could be needed if the KDHE determines the well’s existing casing was unsuitable for use, which would require a new well be drilled near the existing one, he said.

Last month, the city received a letter from the Division of Water Resources reminding the city that it needed to apply for another extension by the end of the year if it hadn’t completed the work needed to divert water from the well.

Hutto said he anticipated the second extension would be approved, but cautioned there probably wouldn’t be a third extension.

With this year’s CDBG grant deadline passed, the city probably wouldn’t have grant funding in hand for the well improvements until 2018, Hutto said. By that time, the water rights could be lost, he warned.

City commissioners were just as anxious to make progress on the Winchester waterline because of promises

made to the neighborhood. A September water hydrant flush and flow test in the area caused some residents to lose water pressure, which led a resident to contact the KDHE. Subsequent tests showed water in the area was safe, but the incident added to city pressure to make the waterline upgrades.

Low water pressure also causes concern about fire suppression, but the city was protected with its mutual aid agreements with surrounding fire departments, Mayor Tim Reazin said.

Still, commissioner signaled interest in moving ahead with the projects. Commissioner Ruth Hughs said she understood the desire to spare residents water-rate increases needed to pay for improvements, but said the city had to start making progress on the projects.

“It makes me nervous,” she said. “We might lose the well, and maybe something could happen

It was agreed commissioners would take up the projects again during their second meeting of January 2017. In the meantime, staff would explore grants further and develop better cost estimates.

Matite also shared with commissioners the performance of the 0.75cent parks and recreation sales tax voters approved in April 2015. The city started collecting the tax on Oct. 1, 2015.

Matite said the city collected $24,091 in the last three months of 2015, and it has collected $206,518 from Jan. 1 through Sept.

30 of this year. It was projected the city would collect $257,625 from the tax in 2017. Although it appeared to be under performing for the year, it was too early to predict if the tax would not realize its goal for the year, Matite said.

Right of public to hunt, fish and trap wildlife. The people have the right to hunt, fish and trap, including by the use of traditional methods, subject to reasonable laws and regulations that promote wildlife conservation and management and that preserve the future of hunting and fishing. Public hunting and fishing shall be a preferred means of managing and controlling wildlife. This section shall not be construed to modify any provision of law relating to trespass, property rights or water resources."

Section 2. The following statement shall be printed on the ballot with the amendment as a whole: "Explanatory statement.

Sidewalk repair The city wants to get more aggressive in having property owners fix sidewalks, but that may not be the best approach.

T

he city of Lawrence should be careful where it steps in trying to deal with sidewalk repairs throughout the city.

The city estimates there is approximately $6.1 million in needed sidewalk repairs in Lawrence, where a sidewalk ordinance requires property owners to maintain, repair and replace sections of sidewalk that abut their properties. At present, city enforcement of the ordinance amounts to responding to complaints and issuing notices asking residents to fix the damaged sidewalks. Compliance with those notices is about 60 percent, the city estimates.

City staff’s recommendation is to get more aggressive in enforcing the sidewalk ordinance, with more aggressive reviews of city sidewalks and better follow-up to make sure necessary repairs are completed.

“I think you’ll find that that 60 percent number will grow if (property owners) understand that we’re serious about following up and making sure that these improvements are made,” Lawrence City Manager Tom Markus said.

But is more aggressive enforcement really the right approach? Sidewalk repairs can be costly. The city estimates replacing a sidewalk that is 5 feet across costs about $6 per square foot. That means a sidewalk that is 40 feet long would cost well more than $1,000 to replace.

Property owners, landlords in particular, are likely to balk at the stepped-up enforcement. Many feel that sidewalks are a benefit to all city residents and that all should share the cost of repairs. Others simply can’t afford the repairs. City staff suggested using a deferral program in which the city would complete the sidewalk repairs and place a lien on the property that would be paid back if and when the property is sold. Such a deferral program seems risky and unworkable.

Perhaps the city could simplify its sidewalk program. First, not all sidewalks are equal. Some are more important to pedestrian use than others. Prioritizing repairs according to usage could help ensure the most important sidewalk repairs get made first.

Second, the complaint-driven program appears to be working. A better job of follow-up is necessary when notices are issued, but otherwise, using complaints to identify major sidewalk problems seems to be a reasonable approach.

Third, the city should consider creating and seeding a grant fund to assist low-income residents with sidewalk repairs.

Safe and well-maintained sidewalks are important to any city, but so too are the taxes and fees residents must pay. The city of Lawrence owes it to residents to be careful not to place undue and unnecessary financial burdens on residents to force sidewalk repairs unless those repairs are absolutely necessary.

Mexico, too, awaits Nov. 8 election There couldn’t have been a more pivotal moment in the U.S.-Mexican relationship for the Philadelphia Museum of Art to open a landmark exhibit of Mexican art.

Of course, the timing of this stunning show is coincidental, coming in the midst of a presidential campaign in which Donald Trump has labeled illegal Mexican immigrants as criminals and rapists. He has also repeatedly denounced the NAFTA accord with Mexico.

Yet it is impossible to separate this brilliant show — called Paint the Revolution: Mexican Modernism 1910-1950 — from politics.

These masterpieces by Diego Rivera and other greats were painted at a time when Mexicans were furiously debating their political direction; they arrive here while America is going through unprecedented political turmoil. Mexican immigrants and the U.S.-Mexico relationship have been used by Trump as a pinata that he constantly whacks to woo his faithful.

Last week, I had a chance to discuss all this with Mexico’s elegant foreign minister, Claudia Ruiz Massieu, who was in Philly for the exhibit opening and who has made 30 trips this year to the United States. She hopes to set the record straight.

“We see the need to inform the American people better about the strategic value and many benefits of our relationship,” she told me. “The best way to meet prejudices is to talk objectively about the contributions of our community to the United States.”

Of Trump’s broad brush portrayal of migrants as

Mexican immigrants and the U.S.-Mexico relationship have been used by Trump as a pinata that he constantly whacks to woo his faithful.” criminals, she says, “The picture Trump has presented is misinformed and prejudiced.” It ignores the fact that most illegals work and a large percentage pay taxes (and it also insults the many successful MexicanAmerican businessmen and professionals). Moreover, Trump never tells you that Mexico has a negative rate of migrant inflow into the United States.

As documented by the Pew Research Center, since 2009 more Mexicans have returned to Mexico than have migrated here (most illegals now crossing the border come from Central or South America or the Caribbean). One reason for the falling numbers is that — surprise! — border security and deportations have increased in recent years.

However, Massieu is quick to say that the problem of undocumented immigrants needs addressing by both countries. “We have to work together to meet

the challenge of migration flows, says Massieu. “We also need to work on root causes of migration in countries of origin.”

Trump’s talk of lining the border with a concrete wall — debunked by most experts as geographically impossible and prohibitively costly — doesn’t fly with Mexico.

Will Mexico pay for the wall, as Trump insists? “We wouldn’t even consider it,” Massieu swiftly responds.

“This is an absurd proposition.”

Why then did Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto invite Trump to visit and never publicly repudiate the “Wall” proposal in his presence?

Massieu’s explanation: “Our government believes in dialogue, particularly when there is a candidate who has a glaring lack of knowledge of what our country contributes to U.S. growth.”

Which brings us to the subject of NAFTA, a trade accord with Mexico and Canada that was passed on President Bill Clinton’s watch. Trump calls it “one of the worst deals ever” and says he’d renegotiate or junk it because it has sucked out American jobs. He pledges to “bring our jobs back.”

What Trump doesn’t say is that many of those manufacturing jobs — so prevalent in the 1960s and 1970s — have been overtaken by automation and are never coming back. Moreover, Mexico, the United States, and Canada are now tied into a single integrated economy that would be extremely difficult to tear apart.

“For every dollar spent on Mexican exports, 40 percent is U.S. content,” Massieu

says. In other words, the less complex parts of an American car may be made in Mexico, the more complex parts in the USA, and the car assembled there, or here.

“Technically it is possible (to disrupt that chain), but in reality it is not possible to undo the commercial chains and production ties we have,” says Massieu, especially because those chains extend beyond governments and link industries in many states directly to Mexico.

If Trump tore up NAFTA and imposed tariffs on Mexico, it would destroy many jobs north of the border without the certainty of creating new ones. American consumers would have to pay far more for their goods.

None of this is to say that there are not problems with immigration or some provisions of trade deals. Pressed from the left by Bernie Sanders, Clinton has echoed Trump in rejecting the trade deal that was supposed to supersede NAFTA, the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

Mexico is waiting uncertainly to see what she would do, if elected, on trade.

But there is no question whom the Mexicans would prefer to win the U.S. election. “Candidate Trump doesn’t have the knowledge of our bilateral relationship that Mrs. Clinton has,” says Massieu. “She knows the strategic value of our relationship.”

“We will work with whatever government, no matter who wins,” the minister adds. But the U.S.-Mexican relationship would no doubt turn frosty under a President Trump.

Choosing abstinence To the editor: Our local school board and health department have proposed their approach to dealing with sexually active students in our high schools. I want to address my response to this approach to parents or a parent and possibly a high schooler who can relate to my experience as a high school kid where there were similar temptations. For example, three of the other boys on the block where I lived did engage in premarital sex. The girls became pregnant and the couples ended up getting married. The marriages didn’t last; one made it longer than the other two but it ended with four children before the divorce came.

I grew up in a lower middle class blue collar neighborhood. At 12 years old I became a Christian. My interest in girls was minimal. I was much more interested in sports.

I was shy and naive but also innocent in my attitude toward girls. I just knew that what some of the other boys were doing in high school was wrong. When I did start to date as a junior until the time I was married after graduation from college, I made the choice to not violate my Christian beliefs.

So what is the point? Each person must make a choice as to what they want to do.

Sounds too simple. Not for me and my wife of now almost 60 years.

Voting rights To the editor: With Election Day quickly approaching

serious attention needs to be paid to the issue of racial discrimination in voting rights.

In 1965, Congress enacted the Voting Rights Act (VRA) that set up several provisions in an attempt to create more equal voting opportunities for all races. However, in 2013 the Supreme Court ruled in the Shelby County v. Holder case, that section four was unconstitutional, essentially discrediting the entire act. States that had a history of systematic discrimination would no longer be accountable to report changes to their voting laws and are now free to institute unequal requirements.

Fortunately, Congress has proposed a replacement to section four, called the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014, that requires states that have had multiple voting rights violations over the last 15 years to receive approval for all voting modifications. I think instituting these new requirements is essential to our nation, especially in an election year. Although advocates of the Shelby ruling have argued the VRA has become outdated and unnecessary, racism is still very prominent across the country and we cannot allow it to interfere with our citizens’ right to vote.

From the Kansas Daily Tribune for Oct. years 25, 1866: ago l “Let the IN 1866 caucus to nominate a candidate for Representative next Friday evening, at Frazer’s Hall, be well attended. The laboring men and mechanics are deeply interested in the coming election. The business men of the town are interested. But the property holders are especially interested. We want a laboring man in the House – a man who has capacity to work as a legislator. Every man who owns a home in Lawrence should see that a good man is selected – a man who will work heart and soul for our railroad interests – a man who has faith in the prosperity of our city. Let the laboring men turn out.” l “Mr. Ridgeway [of Lecompton] met with a serious accident the other day.

The circumstances are about as follows: He was returning from Topeka on foot, when by some means he stumbled and the jar caused the discharge of his revolver which he had swinging on his back. The ball entered the back part of his leg below the knee, glancing around the bone and coming out in front.

The wound is doing well.” l “CHOLERA. There seems to be no doubt that this dreadful disease has reappeared with peculiar violence in Chicago, Nashville, Memphis and several other western and southern cities.” l “We observed on Massachusetts street, yesterday, five wagons loaded to their utmost capacity with immigrants, destined for Southern Kansas. They still roll in, and very few repent of their coming here.” l “The weather is decidedly winterish.”

TAMPA Becky McCaughey steps into the humid Florida afternoon, a trash-bound box in one hand, a leash in the other.

The 53-year-old homemaker lives in a quietly unassuming west Tampa neighborhood, which conservative blogger Ed Morrissey calls “the most generic place” he’s ever been, for its suburban gated communities and national chain strip malls. In election lingo, McCaughey’s neighborhood is known as precinct 519.

County voters are critical in the Nov. 8 presidential election. The race for the White House will be decided by voters like McCaughey, who lives in a county that has picked the winner in 19 of the past 20 presidential elections, says Steve Schale, President Obama’s 2008 Florida campaign director.

Precinct 519 is the quintessential swing precinct in the heart of the key swing region of the nation’s most important swing state. Case in point: After choosing Obama in 2012, the precinct’s voters veered hard right and elected his arch-critic Republican Rick Scott for governor in 2014.

In both races, each candidate won the precinct by less than 2% of the vote.

8 counties that count in 2016

RICARDO ROLON, THE NEWS-PRESS

After voting for the GOP in the last two presidential elections, Becky McCaughey isn’t sure who she’s voting for.

The USA TODAY Network spent time in eight counties in eight states, exploring the key electoral themes that could decide this fall’s election. Each week, we featured a different one.

The series has looked at Waukesha County in Wisconsin, Chester County in Pennsylvania, Wayne County in Michigan, Maricopa County in Arizona, Union County in Iowa, Larimer County in Colorado and Clark County in Ohio. Today’s final installment: Hillsborough County in Florida.

If Hillsborough is any measure, things aren’t looking good for Republican nominee Donald Trump. A Sept. 22 poll by St. Pete Polls, a Florida-only polling firm, had Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton leading Trump in Hillsborough by 48% to 42% among 1,902 likely voters surveyed, with a 2.2-point margin of error.

“I was a Democrat for many years,” McCaughey says, as bulldog Josie Mae snuffles at her feet.

“Now I’m a Republican. I wanted to vote in the primary for John McCain, so that’s why I switched, and then I never changed back.”

But after choosing GOP candidates in the past two presidential contests, McCaughey can’t say with any certainty what she’ll do next.

She sighs. “I’m 50/50 at this v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

For Cubs, 108 may be a truly magic number Josh Peter

@joshlpeter11 USA TODAY Sports

Grant DePorter, who insists destiny and numerology will propel the Chicago Cubs to their first World Series title in 108 years, pointed his phone at the scoreboard behind the left-field wall at Wrigley Field, started recording and put his theory to test.

It was was Oct. 7, Game 1 of the National League Division Series between the Cubs and the San Francisco Giants. Javier Baez, the

Cubs’ second baseman, was at the plate facing Johnny Cueto, the Giants’ starting pitcher.

DePorter’s video showed Cueto’s pitch count — 107 at that point — just moments after DePorter predicted that Baez would hit a home run on pitch 108.

Baez then blasted the 3-2 pitch over the left-field wall to propel the Cubs to a 1-0 victory, jumpstart the team’s postseason run and help cement DePorter’s soothsayer status.

With public money short, private sector helps fight Zika South Florida awaits federal, state funding Alan Gomez @alangomez USA TODAY

MIAMI A pharmaceutical giant volunteered its sales reps to educate doctors about Zika. Charities are fundraising to buy medical screening equipment. And a company will hand out mosquito traps free of charge.

As South Florida waits for long-delayed federal and state money to trickle in, the private

sector has stepped up to help ward off fast-spreading Zika, the mosquito-borne virus that causes fevers in adults and can lead to severe birth defects in babies born to Zika-infected mothers.

Congress fought all summer over a $1.1 billion bill to fund Zika response. While lawmakers in Washington and Tallahassee tussled over how to use existing federal funds, local officials fronted the money to control the Zikacarrying mosquitos that have already shown up in Florida’s densely populated Miami-Dade County.

Officials in Miami-Dade expect to spend up to $12 million on

mosquito control by the time mosquito season ends around Nov. 30. But the county has received just $4.1 million from the

state and nothing from the federal government. Eventually Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez expects the state and federal governments will pay the county back, but it can’t come soon enough. “Reimbursement can always be done faster,” Gimenez said.

The funding delays, however aggravating to local officials, come as little surprise to the private entities, said Thomas Bognanno, president of Community Health Charities, which, along with the March of Dimes, is leading a group of philanthropic organizations to launch a national fundraising drive this week to

help purchase medical equipment, now in short supply, to diagnose and treat people infected by the virus and conduct educational campaign, “It’s government. It takes time,” said Thomas Bognanno, president of Community Health Charities. “If money was allocated today, it wouldn’t be there tomorrow.”

Community Health Charities, which raises money from employees at companies, will work with the March of Dimes and the CDC Foundation, a non-profit branch of the federal agency that works on public-private partnerships to address health issues.

Cubs’ destiny tied to magical number: 108 v CONTINUED FROM 1B

people in Chicago became believers,” DePorter, CEO of Harry Caray’s Restaurant Group that is named after the legendary Cubs announcer, said Monday while sharing the video he said supports his claim that 108 is a magic number signaling the end of the Cubs’ 108-year World Series title drought. “I knew this was going to happen.”

All but shouting his claims on a bullhorn, DePorter said he is just as convinced the Cubs are 108 outs away from winning the World Series (Do the math: 27 outs per game multiplied by four victories needed to win it all).

More than four weeks before the Cubs clinched a spot in the World Series, which will start Tuesday in Cleveland against the Indians, DePorter posted online a list of supposed evidence linking the Cubs and 108 that includes: uThere are 108 stitches on baseballs made by Spalding sporting goods. A.G. Spalding was the Cubs’ first manager (1876-77) and

owner of the sporting goods company. His baseballs were used by the National League from the mid-1870s until 1977. Plus, Spalding’s office was at 108 W. Madison in Chicago. uThe movies Taking Care of Business and Back to the Future, Part II, both of which feature the Cubs winning the World Series, are each 108 minutes long. uThe Ricketts family, the Cubs’ owners, made its fortune through TD Ameritrade, a finance company with headquarters located in Omaha at 108th Avenue.

DePorter said his research started in about 1987 when he was looking for old newspapers for the Harry Caray restaurants.

He found a collection that included every paper from the five major Chicago dailies in 1908, according to DePorter, who said he set out to crack the code of the Cubs’ World Series drought.

One of the discoveries, he said, involved a curse put on the Cubs by the team’s then-owner, Charles Murphy. Cubs players re-

fused to let Murphy join them at a celebratory dinner after they won the 1908 World Series and Murphy was forced out after the 1913 season, according to DePorter, who said Murphy and the number 13 are prominent in the Cubs’ World Series drought. He cited these examples: uIn 1945, William Sianis and his infamous billy goat, named Murphy, that were denied entry into Wrigley Field are pictured standing next to turnstile No. 13. uIn 1984, the Cubs were one victory away from reaching the World Series after winning the first two games of the National League Championship Series against the San Diego Padres. The best-of-five series then shifted to San Diego, where the Cubs lost three in a row — at Jack Murphy Stadium. uIn 2015, the Cubs got swept in the NLCS by the Mets, whose second baseman homered in each of the four games. His name: Daniel Murphy.

DePorter collected the research in a book called Hoodoo,

which was published in 2008 and focused largely on the power of 8.

But after the Cubs lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers at the end of the 2008 season, DePorter said, he continued his research and uncovered the significance of 108, which he learned carries significance in astronomy, spirituality and religion.

any group endeavor.”

He said 1 and 8 in 108 are forceful numbers that support the 9.

“Considering that the 9 is carried by these forceful numbers is a very good omen,” he said. “I would say that taken together these numbers definitely point to a past dilemma being resolved, an

Numerologist Hans Decoz looked at DePorter’s research and noted something else.

“The number 108 adds to 9, which has to do with completion,” Decoz said by email. “It is the number of finality — it’s over and done. It is also a global number — meaning it has a far reach.

It’s a number that represents one for all and all for one. It is therefore one of the best numbers for

obstacle overcome, a negative energy removed or neutralized.”

DePorter, who said he has been flooded by Cubs fans submitting evidence of 108 being linked to the team’s success, scarcely considers the significance of 9. Never mind the fact nine also happens to be the number of baseball players in a lineup.

“I’m sticking with 108,” he said.

“I think it’s destiny at this point.”

point. And my husband? I think he is, too.”

Hillsborough County is a miniature model of the United States (though not that miniature at 1,266 square miles, which is bigger than Rhode Island).

It’s multicultural, multiracial and multi-political, with Democratic blue in the urban centers and Republican red on the outskirts, shot through with a fierce independent streak.

Hillsborough’s population of 1.3 million people is divided into three nearly equal political parts: 39% Democrat, 32% Republican and 29% independent or no party affiliation. The county, the fourth-largest in the state, has one of the highest percentages of voters not choosing a party among Florida’s 67 counties.

McCaughey came from Colorado, where there’s a Democratic governor and a divided Legislature. By way of Interstate 75, Tampa and much of Florida’s west coast also have a strong Midwestern influence, characterized by voters with a penchant for crossing party lines in state races, Schale says.

McCaughey, like many voters here, looks past party and weighs the good and bad of Clinton and Trump.

“What really concerns me about Trump — and I know he’s kind of loud and whatever — is that he doesn’t have the political experience of Hillary,” McCaughey says.

Still, Clinton’s policies trouble McCaughey, especially support for the Affordable Care Act and gun restrictions that could threaten the Second Amendment.

Hillsborough County, Fla., has picked the winner in 19 of the past 20 presidential elections.

LUKE FRANKE, NAPLES DAILY NEWS

“Since college, she’s been a social activist,” McCaughey says.

The choice likely will come down to the final days in this county, where the outcome is never guaranteed for either party.

Morrissey calls Hillsborough “Everytown America” in his book, Going Red, which looks at the west Florida county and six other battleground counties in the nation: Hamilton, Ohio; Wake, N.C.; Prince William, Va.; Jefferson, Colo.; Hillsborough, N.H.; and Brown County, Wis. All the counties represent large areas in their states, serve as bellwethers, and voted for George W. Bush in 2004 and Obama in 2008 and 2012.

“These are states that Republicans need to win. These are counties in those states that they have to compete in to win. And winning each of these seven counties is reflective of how well they are competing nationally,” says Morrissey. “(Hillsborough) is really where the battleground is in Florida.”

Ana Cruz, former head of the Florida Democratic Party and a 43-year-old fourth-generation descendant of Cuban cigar-makers, says Hillsborough is “a microcosm of what this battleground state of Florida represents.”

“Also, what our entire country looks like … urban areas … suburban areas and also rural areas.

Also gender, and our demographics as it relates to Hispanic, black and Anglo voters,” she says, raising her voice to be heard over the lunchtime bustle at the West Tampa Sandwich Shop. “That diversity in geography and diversity in demographics makes Hillsborough County such a purple county.”

The county’s population, like its registered voters, includes a diverse mix of residents, with 51% white, 27% Hispanic and nearly 18% black.

Michele Shenefield, 40, snuggles up to her husband on the couch in the posh Hyde Park Buddy Brew coffee house in South Tampa, where 30-somethings in workout clothes grab coffees from baristas with tattoos and multicolored hair. Shenefield represents Clinton’s vulnerabilities in this swing county.

A white accountant from tiny Apollo Beach, Shenefield says she’s been a lifelong Democrat like the rest of her family. She voted for Obama in 2012 but will likely vote Trump in this election.

Although Clinton is beating Trump in every age category in the county, she has the narrowest lead among voters ages 30 to 50 at just 2 points. In addition, white voters are the only demographic Trump leads in the county: 50% to Clinton’s 39%.

Trump’s low ratings among minorities mean he has to excel with white voters.

Although Shenefield never considered switching her party to independent, she is pretty divided in her political values. She supports universal health care, one of Obama’s legacies, but believes the U.S. has an immigration problem.

Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn says Shenefield’s attitude is common among his constituents, who defy political ideology and make elections difficult to predict.

“People here tend to be rather pragmatic, rather practical, somewhat less partisan, which is a good thing as opposed to being rigid ideologues,” Buckhorn says.

“People here are capable on any given year of voting D or voting R, depending on the candidate.

And so I think this is a good test bed, if you will, for what’s going to happen in a couple of weeks.”

Shenefield doesn’t like either candidate, but she’s leaning toward Trump because she believes he “surrounds himself with highly intelligent people.” And she doesn’t have a high opinion of Clinton’s advisers.

“I don’t want to use the word cronies but I don’t know of a better term,” she says. Of Clinton: “I just don’t believe a word she says.”

Farther into South Tampa’s peninsula, historic Bayshore Boulevard sweeps for almost five elegantly balustraded miles along Hillsborough Bay’s west flank, lined with sleek offices and historic mansions. This is where Hillsborough’s educated elite live — people like Jonathan Sobin, a 65-year-old clinical psychologist.

Sobin is a registered independent who will be voting for Clinton. He often breaks for Democrats, saying, “I don’t relate to the pro-gun, anti-abortion people at all.”

A fiscal conservative and social liberal, Sobin voted for Obama in 2008 and Republican Mitt Romney in 2012. Romney won collegeeducated voters like Sobin statewide and nationwide, according to exit surveys of voters. But Clinton has reversed the trend, polling several points ahead of Trump with educated voters in both state and national polls.

Sobin likely would have voted for Clinton no matter who the Republican candidate was, he says. But given her opponent, his choice is a “no brainer.”

Still, he says, the negative campaigning has dampened his enthusiasm for Clinton.

“I don’t think people are terribly enthusiastic for Hillary. And my own enthusiasm was diminished, sort of by this whole process over the last year,” he says. “I sort of started to be persuaded a little bit about her being not on top of her game so much.”

About 73% of Hillsborough’s registered voters turned out for the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections.

In Hillsborough, Clinton is polling most strongly among African Americans at 76%. But that’s still several points below her state and national numbers, where she easily clears 80% among black voters.

In 2004, John Kerry pulled more than 85% of the black vote in both Florida and nationally, even though he lost by 5 points in Florida and by 31,444 votes in Hillsborough. Obama won in 2008 and 2012 with historic support from minorities and young people, a large part of the Democratic base. In both elections, he received more than 90% of the black vote in Florida and nationally.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

Weeks of lackluster trading could set up investors for something to look forward to.

Listless trading by the Standard & Poor’s 500 now means only a third of the sub-industry groups, or 33%, are trading over their average prices over the past 10 weeks, says Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at CFRA. At first glance, the low participation by industries in the market’s upward move and the reliance on a few breakaway winners seems like a problem for the market.

But history suggests otherwise as the low percentage of companies trading over their average prices the past 10 weeks could set up for future gains. Over the past 20 years, when the percentage of

Fogle’s ex-wife alleges in lawsuit Subway knew of his ‘depravities’ Madeline Buckley @Mabuckley88 The Indianapolis Star

INDIANAPOLIS The ex-wife of Jared Fogle is suing Subway, claiming the sandwich chain knew of their spokesman’s “depravities.”

Attorneys for Katie McLaughlin, Fogle’s ex-wife, filed a lawsuit against Subway on her behalf in Hamilton Superior Court in Noblesville, Ind., on Monday. Fogle, 39, is serving nearly 16 years in a federal prison after his conviction on child pornography charges.

McLaughlin said her main fo-

cus is getting answers about what Subway knew when. But she is requesting an unspecified amount in damages.

On at least three occasions Subway received reports about Fogle’s sexual interest in children.

Subway officials investigated, but took no action, the suit claims.

Subway turned Jared’s family into a marketing tool, the suit says, and used likenesses without their consent. “Subway’s ambition for sales and growth” came at the expense of his wife and children, the suit alleges.

First a household name because of his story of extreme

Jared Fogle, a former pitchman for Subway, was sentenced to more than 15 years.

weight loss, Fogle last year became known instead for his exploitation of children and use of child pornography.

A federal judge in November sentenced him to 15 years, eight months in prison after he pleaded guilty to possession or distribution of child pornography and traveling across state lines to have commercial sex with a minor. The case became a national media story in July 2015 when law enforcement officers raided Fogle’s Zionsville, Ind., home.

Last week, an underage Indiana girl who was secretly filmed via hidden cameras by Russell Taylor, the former head of the Jared Fogle Foundation, who then shared those images with Fogle, dropped the lawsuit that was filed

against the pair in March.

Fogle was a 425-pound freshman at Indiana University when he embarked on an unusual diet of turkey and veggie subs in 1998.

After losing 235 pounds he began to appear in television commercials for Subway. He starred in more than 300 Subway commercials, appeared in numerous television shows and movies, wrote an autobiographical book and pulled in $5,000 to $10,000 for personal appearances.

MAKING WAVES The anticipation surrounding Sunday’s season premiere of ‘The Walking Dead’ was quickly drowned out by social media protests from fans. In a highly criticized moment of violence, the show revealed that new villain Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), who made his debut in the Season 6 finale, killed fan-favorite characters Glenn (Steven Yeun) and Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) with a baseball bat covered in barbed wire. The graphic episode left some fans so appalled they vowed to quit the show for good. In response to the backlash, director Greg Nicotero told USA TODAY, “I would say that that means we have done something to affect these people in a way that they don’t necessarily know how to process.”

Bill Murray arrives at his seat before the 19th annual Mark Twain Award for American Humor program at the Kennedy Center.

Punch lines, praise for Twain honoree Murray Former SNL star is the toast of D.C. as fellow actors rib and revere him

JUN SATO, WIREIMAGE

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Cindy Clark

@byCindyClark USA TODAY WASHINGTON Out of a star-studded lineup of top actors, comedians and musicians in attendance at the Kennedy Center to toast Bill Murray, it was Miley Cyrus who generated the most attention from the honoree.

After Cyrus botched her performance of a variation of the classic My Way at Sunday night’s salute to Murray, who received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, the actor stood from his seat in the balcony and declared, “We’re safe now. How ’bout those pipes? Do it again! Do it again!”

“This is live entertainment!” shouted Murray, 66, as the audience roared with laughter. “This is happening now in Washington, D.C. — the 51st state! If it had statehood, that wouldn’t have happened!”

And so Cyrus gave it a second shot, nailing the lyrics and cleaning things up for the version that will broadcast Friday on PBS as Bill Murray: The Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize (check local listings).

While Cyrus garnered laughs for her expletive-filled snafu, the evening was filled with many touching moments.

showed up to honor Murray, who was a guest on his late-night shows 44 times. They became good friends, and Letterman spoke of how in 2003 he received a package at his office containing a handmade Irish christening gown. Earlier, he had mentioned to Murray that his son, Harry, was to be christened that weekend. “That Saturday, my son, in Bill Murray’s christening gown, was christened at St. Ignatius in Manhattan, and we have this memory, we have this gift, we have this gesture for the rest of our lives,” Letterman said.

Emma Stone, who co-starred alongside Murray in Aloha, noted that he “brings a kind of generosity and caring” to everything around him.

Emma Stone, left, and Sigourney Weaver each reminisced of co-starring with Bill Murray, for better or worse.

noted that “he went from brilliant sketch actor to brilliant film actor.”

And, of course, there were plenty of jokes at Murray’s expense.

“I worked with Bill on two Ghostbusters movies and we did this love scene. ... Where the hell is my prize?” joked Sigourney Weaver.

Steve Martin, appearing via video, said, “As a previous recipient of the Mark Twain Prize, I’d like to say to you, ‘Welcome to the club,’ and to the Kennedy Center, ‘Really?’ ” “I think you and I are about as close as two people can be, considering that one of them is you,” Martin added.

Finally, Murray took to the stage to accept a bronzed bust of the late, great satirist — which he promptly handed to a member of the audience with instructions to “pass it around.”

Murray, the fifth of nine children, paid tribute to his older brother, Brian Doyle-Murray, who supported the family after their father died. He also helped his younger brother get his start in improvisational theater.

“My brother had more guts than anyone I ever knew, and the only reason I’m here tonight is because of the guts of my brother Brian,” Murray said. “He’s been waiting a long time to hear that.”

Special for USA TODAY

You know the last few pages of a thriller, where the cops wrap up the loose ends and make their arrests? If you’ve ever wished that section BOOK lasted 200 pages, the REVIEW book for you is The Whistler (Doubleday, 374 pp., eegE out of four) by John Grisham.

Grisham has become an institution. For more than 25 years now he’s been our guide to the byways and backwaters of our legal system, superb in particular at ferreting out its vulnerabilities and dramatizing their abuses in gripping style. He excels at describing injustice and corruption.

(It’s fitting that he’s ended up on the board of The Innocence Project, a charity that seeks to exonerate the wrongfully convicted.)

The flaws that accompany these strengths, from stilted dia-

plaints about judges. These complaints are often small — alcoholism, minor bribes. This one, though, might be huge. A disbarred lawyer, skulking around the docks, claims to have a bead on the most corrupt judge in American history.

It turns out he’s right. She’s on the take. We learn this early, and also who’s paying her (it’s a secretive coastal crime organization made up of several cousins), and why they’re doing it (graft at a Native American casino). We learn who their victims are; among others, there’s an innocent man on death row, staring hard at the needle.

These are the ingredilogue to wisp-thin ents of a good thriller. characters to a They’re just presented in sense of humor dads mystifying order.

by John Grisham. (“And now that we’re on the subject, how’s your sex life?” a co-worker asks her.)

Everyone who seems to have done the bad stuff did the bad stuff, in exactly the order you would have guessed.

The best moments in The Whistler delineate the exact particulars of the illegal operation at the casino, shedding light on the fascinating set of laws that govern the gambling operations of Florida tribes.

Grisham’s legal knowledge is impressive, and his ability to convey it unparalleled in popular fiction.

But that’s not enough to sustain a novel without suspense.

This author has always been strongest when writing about protagonists whose own lives are in a state of doubt and danger, rather than about those conducting straight-up investigations.

Thrillers, by classical definition, rather than mysteries. That seems especially true in this mystery, a forgettable moment in a great career.

Dear Annie

Annie Lane

the topic of conversation or laughing off just how crazy things have become, but the topic always seems to rear its ugly head. Annie, how do I deal with politics ruining something I love? — Tangled Dear Tangled: You have two options: 1) Tell your fellow knitters that you’re not comfortable discussing politics in polite company. 2) Change the subject as forcefully as you can

‘All in the Family’ examined “American Masters” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings) profiles and celebrates television producer Norman Lear. As someone who writes about television, and sits on the receiving end of its publicity machinery, I am a firm believer that most things written about “legends” tend to be more hype than truth.

But nobody can over st ate the importance of Lear’s sitcom masterpiece “All In the Family.” The history of the situation comedy, and arguably television itself, can be divided into before and after Archie Bunker.

And while much has been made about the innovation and topicality of that comedy, as well as its spin-off hits “The Jeffersons,” “Good Times” and “Maude,” those shows rank among very rare commodities in entertainment history. They were challenging, thought-provoking, ground-breaking and controversial. But they were also popular, dominating the ratings in their time. “Family” was the No. 1 show in America from 1971 to 1976.

The showbiz-salute aspect of “Another Version of You” features a child actor as a young Lear, a touch that adds little to the proceedings. Colleagues on hand include George Clooney, Jon Stewart, Amy Poehler, Mel Brooks, Lena Dunham, Carl and Rob Reiner and Russell Simmons.

It’s perhaps natural that once television caught up to the times, the change in comedy from distractions like “The Mothers-in-Law” and “The Flying Nun” to more topical satirical fare would arrive, not in a trickle, but as a tidal wave.

And Norman Lear was smart, visionary and lucky enough to ride that wave. l “Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel” (9 p.m., HBO) profiles Bikram Choudhury, a worldrenowned yoga guru accused of overseeing an abusive cult; a look back at the 1968 Mexico Olympics and a Maine town where refugee students have transformed the soccer team.

TV-themed DVDs available today include “Janet King, Season 2.”

Tonight’s other highlights

l The knockout rounds con-

tinue on “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC, TV-PG). l “The Contenders: 16 for 16” (7 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) recalls the vice presidential campaigns of Geraldine Ferraro and Sarah Palin. l “Bull” (8 p.m., CBS, TV-14) has already been renewed for a second season. l Squabbling about family on “This Is Us” (8 p.m., NBC, TV-14). l An invitation to a Juneteenth party arrives with mixed messages on “Atlanta” (9 p.m., FX, TV-MA).

Taurus (April 20-May 20) HHHH Your imagination opens new doors for you. Conversations with a child or loved one could be delightful. Tonight: In the limelight.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) HHH Staying centered needs to be your primary goal in a day full of mixed messages. A loved one might disagree. Tonight: No wandering! Stay close to home.

There is no harm in No. 1, and if your friends take offense to it, then that is their problem. After election season is over, conversations will (one hopes) turn less to politics and more to topics fit for civilized dialogue. Knitting is a scientifically proven therapeutic activity, and it would be a shame to leave the circle feeling like a ball of knots.

Dear Annie: I just wanted to reply to “Halfsies” regarding her questions about dating etiquette. I’m a man and the man should pay for the first date. From my side, the problem I encounter all too often is women who aren’t willing to accept that chivalry.

I am not unaware of another person’s ability to pay, but I want to give of myself anyway.

If I’m not permitted to do this, then how can I truly enter into a relationship with someone, which demands self-giving?

As for going Dutch: When it comes down to it, I don’t mind if the woman pays on the occasional date, but I strictly do not believe in going Dutch if you are dating someone.

Whoever pays fully is offering a gift to the other person; going Dutch makes it about “me” and “my part,” and I can only interpret this as a selfish uncommitment. I want to be committed and to give — and to receive generously, as well — not to be in just one more “relationship” that is no more than friendship with benefits. — Knight

what you are saying.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HH Listen to your instincts, and follow through on what you desire. Confusion could affect your daily routine. Tonight: Not to be found!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Friendship plays a key role in your decision-making process. Curb your spending. Tonight: Zero in on what is important.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH If you are able to detach, you’ll come up with answers.

Others will pitch in if you ask them to. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Detach, and you will come out ahead. You sense what is going on. Trust your instincts.

Tonight: Go for mental and physical relaxation.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH One-on-one relating brings results. A friend or loved one will lift you up with his or her caring. Tonight: Happy at home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Defer to others, and listen to their ideas. Your instincts will carry you past a problem.

Tonight: Out late.

Dear Annie: I live in a town where the majority of people share one political viewpoint.

I am in the minority on the other side. Usually, I am able to avoid the topic of politics, as I know that it will only lead to arguments or conflict among my friends and family.

I’m also part of a close knitting circle that meets about every week. Most of us have known one another since our kids were young, and we have a lot in common otherwise. Though I usually find the knitting relaxing and the company kind, lately it seems as though every week features a political discussion.

Light refreshments will be served.

People with diabetes either don’t make enough insulin (Type 1 diabetes) or can’t use insulin properly (Type 2 diabetes). Insulin is what carries glucose into body cells, where it can be used for energy. When the body doesn’t have enough insulin or can’t use it effectively, blood sugar builds up in the blood.

High blood sugar levels can lead to heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, limb amputations and neuropathy (nerve damage).

Many of those with poorly controlled or progressing diabetes will have a shortened life span as well as a life restricted by disability due to their disease.

Risk factors for Type 2 diabetes include being overweight; a high blood glucose level; a history of developing gestational diabetes during pregnancy;

high blood pressure; an unhealthy cholesterol profile; being physically inactive or eating a less than healthy diet; and smoking. Other risk factors can include age, gender, family history or being a member of an atrisk racial group.

Before people develop Type 2 diabetes, they almost always have prediabetes. In prediabetes, blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not quite high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes.

Recent research shows that some long-term damage to the body (especially to the heart and circulatory system) may even occur during the prediabetes phase. No change in lifestyle usually leads to diabetes within 10 years.

Each year, about 11 percent of people with prediabetes develop Type 2 diabetes.

60 percent of Americans with diabetes skip annual sight-saving examinations

By USNewswire

Chicago — People with diabetes are at increased risk of developing serious eye diseases, yet most do not have sight-saving annual eye exams, according to a large study presented recently at AAO 2016, the 120th annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. This is especially timely as the Academy is reiterating the importance of eye exams during the month of November, which is observed as Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month.

Researchers at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia have found that more than half of patients with the disease skip these exams. They also discovered that patients who smoke as well as those with less severe diabetes and no eye problems were most likely to neglect having these checks.

The researchers collaborated with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to review the charts of close to 2,000 patients age 40 or older with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes to see how many had regular eye exams. Their findings over a four-year period revealed that: l Fifty-eight percent of patients did not have regular follow-up eye exams. l Smokers were 20 percent less likely to have exams. l Those with lesssevere disease and no eye problems were least likely to follow recommendations

l Those who had diabetic retinopathy were 30 percent more likely to have follow-up exams.

One in 10 Americans have diabetes, putting them at heightened risk for visual impairment due to the eye disease diabetic retinopathy. The disease also can lead to other blinding ocular complications if not treated in time. Fortunately, having a dilated eye exam yearly or more often can prevent 95 percent of diabetes-related vision loss.

shouldn’t wait until they experience problems to get these exams,” Rahul N. Khurana, physician and clinical spokesperson for the Academy. “Getting your eyes checked by an ophthalmologist can reveal the signs of disease that patients aren’t aware of.”

American seniors 65 and older may be eligible to get a medical eye exam at no cost through Eye Care America, a public service program of the Academy.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Gambling on Kansas football a risky bet Any hack who hovers around the Mendoza line in getting the ball onto the green in one from a sand trap, has an even lower batting average hitting fairways and can’t reach a par-four in regulation unless aided by a rock-hard fairway, has no trouble naming the greatest invention in golf history: Handicaps.

The GHIN System, that glorious equalizer, makes losers feel like winners, roughly as often as not.

Similarly, point spreads give gambling fans of football teams in rebuilding mode a second chance at heading home happy that their team enriched them even with a loss.

At least that’s how it generally works.

Unfortunately for Kansas football fans who like to visit sports books in Las Vegas, taking the Jayhawks and the points, sometimes a ton of points, it seldom seems to work well.

Since the hole Kansas football has dug for itself coincides roughly with Mark Mangino’s forced resignation, let’s take a look at how KU has done against the spread on this side of the Mangino Line, per teamrankings.com: 2010: 5-7. 2011: 6-6. 2012: 4-7-1. 2013: 4-8. 2014: 5-7.

2015: 3-9. 2016: 2-5.

Since Turner Gill’s teams went 11-13 against the spread (ATS), a better place to draw the line actually is after Gill. Since the start of 2012, KU’s .333 ATS winning percentage puts it in a tie for last with Connecticut among 128 FBS schools.

Saturday’s Kansas bettors were particularly unlucky. Oklahoma State was favored by 23-1/2 points and won 44-20, further evidence of how deeply the roots of bad luck surrounding KU football burrow.

The Jayhawks haven’t had a winning ATS since going 7-5 in 2008, which capped a remarkable fiveyear run during which Kansas had a winning ATS record every season and went 36-19-2, including 10-11 in 2007.

Pockets jingling while watching Aqib Talib and Chris Harris patrol the secondary, Todd Reesing run for his life and launch accurate bombs to Dezmon Briscoe and Kerry Meier, James McClinton devour blockers, Anthony Collins pancake big, fast men.

KU football fans were so fortunate in so many ways back then. Their luck is bound to take a turn for the better one day, and when it does, look out!

Intense initiation Freshman Jackson adjusting to college challenge

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

In that short time, Jackson has seen that whether you’re a one-and-done phenom or an unrecruited walk-on, you’re treated the same by Self when you’re wearing KU practice gear.

“He knows that I’m kind of a special player,” Jackson admitted. “And he still never takes it easy on me, doesn’t kiss my butt. He’s really hard on me sometimes and I think I need that. It’s really good to have a coach like that.”

Always charismatic and charming in the public eye,

Free State soccer advances

By Evan Riggs eriggs@ljworld.com

With only one win in the last eight games of the regular season, Free State High senior Heitor Nazareth admitted the spirit of the boys soccer team needed to change.

“We’ve been doing ac-

tivities to bring the team together more and be happy,” Nazareth said. “We had a bonfire, and went to the pumpkin (patch). I really think that stuff helped a lot.”

Nazareth said he thought the team played much happier on Monday night, and it showed in a 3-1 home win over No. 9-seed Topeka

High in the first round of regionals at FSHS. Nazareth, junior Charlie Newsome and sophomore Rowan Laufer all scored goals for the eighth-seeded Firebirds.

he story lines are as long as a Stephen Curry 3-pointer.

With a superteam in the West, a megastar in the Midwest, superstars all around the league, its global popularity at an all-time high, more revenue than ever and labor peace looming, this season has the potential to be like no other the league has ever had. Yes, rivaling the Celtics’ run in the 1960s, possibly topping Magic-Bird rivalry of the ‘80s and Michael Jordan’s run of the ‘90s.

LeBron James is holding the title in Cleveland and Kevin Durant has settled in Golden State, so the NBA Finals could be headed for the same destination again next June.

But what a journey it should be getting there.

“I think there is a somewhat an inevitability of this Cleveland-Warriors meeting in the finals again, which can sometimes make you overlook how enjoyable the regular season can be if you love basketball,” ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy said. “So I think they’ll meet in the finals again, but that doesn’t make the regular season uninteresting to me.”

A summer spending spree created new contenders and enticing questions for a global audience that will begin being answered tonight when the new season opens in the places the last one ended.

The record-setting Warriors will be must-see TV again with Durant, the former scoring champ and league MVP, sharing shots with Curry, the current scoring champ and MVP. James is on a Jordan-like run, looking for a seventh straight trip to the NBA Finals and hoping to build a dynasty where there was once just despair.

There’s Dwyane Wade in Chicago and Dwight Howard in Atlanta after both went home.

Derrick Rose left home, traded from the Bulls to the New York Knicks.

Former Commissioner David Stern used to say the NBA was in its golden age.

Under Adam Silver, it may be even shinier.

“There are a lot of charged-up players in this league,” Silver said. “There are a lot of teams, young teams in the development cycle, where I think they would even say realistically they’re unlikely to win the championship this season, but they’re on the road to winning a championship.”

Cleveland — What the King wants, the King gets. So thanks to LeBron James, ice cream will be on the dessert menu for Cleveland’s big night.

James and his Cavaliers teammates are to receive their championship rings tonight and raise a title banner in Quicken Loans Arena at about the same time the Indians throw the first pitch in Game 1 of the World Series next door at Progressive Field.

James was asked last week if there was anything that could make this better. He said: “I don’t know, having an ice cream truck outside both arenas at the same time as well — icing on the cake.”

On Monday, Blue Bunny Ice Cream granted King James’ wish. It announced it will have a truck outside the arena to hand out free ice cream to fans.

Last week, the NBA said the Cavs’ home opener against the New York Knicks will start 30 minutes earlier to make it easier for fans who want to enjoy both events.

BASKETBALL

Shaq in doughnut business Atlanta — Basketball Hall-of-Famer Shaquille O’Neal likes Krispy Kreme doughnuts so much, he has purchased the

brand’s downtown Atlanta location.

O’Neal has publicly displayed his affection for the brand ­­— especially Krispy Kreme’s Original Glazed doughnut — in media and on social media.

Krispy Kreme also announced in a news release Monday that Shaq is the brand’s new global spokesman.

Police were called to the area shortly after 3 p.m. Saturday, Jones said.

Using the car’s tracking device, police located the Corvette in southwest Atlanta about 25 minutes later, police said. No arrests have been reported.

‘Inside Stuff’ host robbed

No ‘Trump’ call, says Manning

Atlanta — NBA TV personality Kristen Ledlow was robbed at gunpoint at her home, she said.

The host of “NBA Inside Stuff” said on Twitter and Instagram on Sunday that she was held up the day before “by three men who knew who I was, where I lived and were waiting for me when I got home.”

She says in addition to stealing her Corvette, purse and phone, the thieves took her “sense of security.” She says she’ll be taking a break from social media as a result, but she “will not become a slave to fear.”

Ledlow told police the group of men got out of a silver sedan and approached her shortly after she pulled into her apartment complex. One of the men pointed a gun and stole her red 2016 Corvette, Atlanta police spokeswoman Kim Jones told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

London — Eli Manning says he wasn’t using Donald Trump’s name in order to signal an audible during the New York Giants’ victory over the Los Angeles Rams in London on Sunday.

The Giants quarterback was caught by microphones yelling out something that sounded a lot like “Trump” ahead of a snap in second quarter of the 17-10 win. The play was a run up the middle that gained a yard.

Some on Twitter speculated that the call was a signal for blockers to form a wall for the ball carrier in reference to the Republican presidential nominee’s plan to build a wall along the border between the U.S. and Mexico.

Manning denied saying Trump’s name after the game, telling reporters that they have a call that’s “very similar.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL

High-scoring Sooners next challenge

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Like most people who caught the Big 12’s latest football shootout Saturday night between Oklahoma and Texas Tech, University of Kansas football coach David Beaty often just shook his head, marveling at the display.

“It was amazing to watch both those teams go to work offensively,” Beaty said of a 66-59

said. “We were able to control the ball and do some things that we had got away from at the tail end of the season, and especially in the last game of the season.”

Offensively, the Firebirds (8-7-2) were able to use throughballs to their advantage, and Barah said that was something they had success with in practice. Nazareth, along with Laufer, senior Brennan Clark and Branden Patterson spearheaded a constant attack throughout the game with their passing.

“Our ability to be able to find the entry passes and the right angles was key,” Barah said. “Our players did exactly what they were supposed to do, so that

OU victory in Lubbock, Texas, featuring 1,708 combined yards of total offense between the Sooners and Red Raiders.

With his Jayhawks (1-6 overall, 0-4 Big 12) traveling this week to face No. 16 OU (5-2, 4-0) on the road, Beaty watched the score-fest twice Sunday night in preparation.

Wowed by the production of Sooners Joe Mixon (267 rushing yards, four touchdowns) and Baker Mayfield (27-for-36

passing, 545 yards, seven touchdowns), as well as Texas Tech QB Patrick Mahomes (FBS record 819 yards of total offense, seven total touchdowns), Beaty also noticed how exhausted the defensive players looked as the more than four-hour game reached its conclusion.

“I can imagine livin’ in that was probably a nightmare,” the Kansas coach said.

Monday morning on

the Big 12 coaches media teleconference, a reporter asked Beaty if seeing the OU defense give up so many yards and points gave him examples of areas where the Sooners might be vulnerable. The KU coach countered Mahomes and the Red Raiders (3-4, 1-3) deserved more credit for their showing.

The Firebirds’ first goal of the game came in the 10th minute when Newsome was able to rise above Topeka defenders for a header off a corner kick. In the 37th minute, Nazareth was fouled by the Topeka goalie in the 18-yard box going after a throughball, which set up a penalty kick that Rowan converted to give Free State a 2-0 lead.

After a corner kick and a chance on goal to begin the second half, Nazareth nailed a goal from outside the box in the 57th minute to give Free State a 3-0 advantage.

“Today, I was like, ‘I’m going to play my heart out, because it could be my last game,’” Nazareth said. “I came out full of energy, and I just wanted to get my teammates goals and get a win.”

Jackson

himself thinking back on the coaching he got from Self that day. Whether it’s good or bad, calm or crazy, Jackson already has discovered he likes it.

“It was a little bit of a shock,” Jackson admitted.

“But at the end of the day, when I’m thinking about it in my room, I’m like, ‘Man, he was really hard on me today, but there’s a reason for it so I can handle it.’”

Handling it is nothing new for the 6-foot-8 freshman from Detroit by way of Prolific Prep in Napa, Calif. Facing high expectations at every stop of his career and with the white-hot spotlight shining brightest for the past few seasons, Jackson said he felt most at home when competing.

It’s always been that way. Even when he was a little pest trying to outclass his mom and dad in games of one-on-one as a 5-year-old, Jackson wanted and expected to win.

It was during those showdowns in the backyard that a fierce competitor was born. And the ups and downs, praise and criticism, hype and reality that Jackson has experienced in the dozen or so years since have all prepared him for this moment, his one shot at college basketball at the highest level.

“As a kid, I played against both of them a lot,” Jackson said of his parents, including mom, Apples Jones, who played college basketball at UTEP. “They would never take it easy on me.

They would always foul me kinda hard, block my

shot and just beat me all the time. It really made me mad because I always wanted to win and I felt like this 5-year-old kid was supposed to beat these adults but it wasn’t happening that way.”

Jackson’s breakthrough did not come until his teenage years. He was 13 or 14 when he finally defeated his mother, whom he credits for “hanging in there” for quite awhile.

What became of the games after he finally beat her?

“Didn’t play after that,” he joked.

Today, Jackson is much older than 5 and far more skilled than the little boy who scrapped in the backyard all those years ago. But the challenge remains the same.

In a couple of weeks, the long, tall freshman who was regarded as the top recruit in the entire country just one year ago, will kick off his Kansas career on the biggest stage possible, with highprofile, marquee games against fellow blue blood programs Indiana in Hawaii and Duke in New York City.

One might wonder how Jackson possibly could be ready for such a challenge right out of the gate. He credits Self and his teammates for helping him get ready, especially backcourt mates Devonté Graham and Frank Mason III. “The best thing for me is coming to practice every day knowing those two are gonna go at me really hard,” Jackson said.

“It’s not gonna do anything but make me better

Self can be the same with his players during practices. Of course, if things are not being executed to his liking, he also can flip the switch, sometimes in the same sentence, and turn into a relentless drill sergeant demanding excellence.

Jackson has seen both and has developed an appreciation for each of them. What he’s not sure of is what he’ll think of the side of Self teammates have promised him is still coming.

“I didn’t expect him to be quite like this,” Jackson said. “But what’s kind of scaring me is some of the players telling me, ‘Oh, this is nothing, he gets so much worse.’ I’m just waiting to see what that’s like.”

Asked for an indication of what exactly “quite like this” means, Jackson paused.

“There’s a lot of exKU’s Chou 10th amples,” he joked. “But at Louisville I’m not sure I can use his exact words on camera.”

and I really like playing with them. Love it a lot.”

When asked for his welcome-to-college moment, Jackson listed two, one from senior forward Landen Lucas and another from Mason.

“A couple times Landen has set a couple screens on me, hit me really hard,” he began. “And a couple times trying to guard Frank, I’m running as fast as I can and he’s still a mile ahead of me.

They’re just really far ahead of me right now, but I think I’m catching up a little bit.

“There were a few times over the summer where I was in bed and my body hurt so bad I couldn’t move and I was like, ‘What the heck am I doing here?’ But I got through it and it’s coming easy now.”

For Mason and Graham, sending Jackson down that path was precisely the plan.

They heard about the accolades and knew the name. But, to them, Jackson was nothing more than another teammate when he hit campus last summer. And, one-anddone phenom or not, the only way they could ensure that he would help this team as much as possible was if the veterans who have been there and done that roughed him up a little early on.

“When you first come in, I’m trying to go at you,” said Graham, softening his words a bit for print. “At first we were battling during workouts and stuff like that, but we’ve become closer and he’s gonna be real good for us.”

WORLD SERIES PREVIEW

Want to see World Series at Wrigley?

It will cost thousands

By Don Babwin Associated Press

Chicago (ap) — Fans hoping to see the Cubs play in the World Series for the first time since 1945 are finding a seat could cost them more than what their grandparents paid for their houses.

The euphoria from Saturday night’s victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers gave way Monday to the realization that history doesn’t come cheap.

Box seats on ticket-selling sites such as StubHub were $50,000 and up, with one seller asking $100,000 for a seat and another asking for just under $1 million. But there are lots of box seat tickets in the $5,000 to $10,000 range.

Tickets to just get into the park and stand behind those with actual seats were going for more than $2,200 each. List prices for World Series tickets at Wrigley range from $85 to $565, according to Major League Baseball figures.

World Series tickets are costing a lot more in Cleveland, too — well above the $83 to $750 list price range that MLB provided for Progressive Field — but are not as expensive as those in Chicago. And there are indications that Cubs fans, getting a look at what they’d pay at Wrigley versus Progressive, are buying two tickets: one for a plane and one for a game.

Ticket brokers were being flooded with calls from fans looking for tickets and, as of Monday, they were willing to pay as much as $12,000, said Dan Makras of Classic Tickets in Chicago. But he said prices might climb because Cubs fans are proving to be reluctant to sell no matter how much money they’re offered.

“People have waited so long for this,” he said.

How long? Well, the last time the Cubs were in the World Series, a ticket in the upper grandstand was $6.

That pent-up desire might explain why more than 2.6 million people — about the population of Chicago — signed up for a drawing for a chance to buy the few thousand tickets the Cubs are now selling themselves.

Fans with more creativity than luck or money are making some unusual pitches to pry tickets from the hands of their owners.

In Southern California, Annie Coffman posted on Craigslist an offer to exchange no fewer than two tickets for a week at her ski cabin near Big Bear Lake. “Rental for a week is about $9,000,” said Coffman, who grew up near Chicago. Not only that, but her sister owns a ski cabin near Lake Tahoe and would be willing to sweeten the offer.

“If someone wants to make it a whole tour of California, we could do that,” Coffman said.

Some Chicago fans apparently are going with Plan B and heading to Cleveland.

Cameron Popp of StubHub said a quarter of the tickets being sold on the site for Game 1 in Cleveland tonight are being paid for with credit cards associated with Illinois ZIP codes. In comparison, only about 2 percent of the sales to Game 3 at Wrigley are coming from Ohio.

No wonder. Papp said the average ticket price for Game 1 is about $1,000.

2016 Postseason Baseball Glance

Lovable losers Cubs, Indians meet in Series

By Ronald Blum AP Baseball Writer

Cleveland (ap) — The last time the Cleveland Indians won the World Series, Dewey led Truman in the polls.

The Chicago Cubs’ last title was 13 days after the first Ford Model T car was completed.

Lovable losers known for decades of defeat meet in this year’s championship, a combined 174 seasons of futility facing off starting tonight at Progressive Field.

Cleveland’s last title was in 1948, when 16 teams from the East Coast to St. Louis competed in a justintegrated sport. The Cubs are trying to win for the first time since 1908, a dead ballera matchup at a time home runs were rarities along with telephones.

No player is alive from the last championship Cubs or even the last to make a Series appearance — Tuesday marks the 25,948th day since the Cubs’ Game 7 loss to Detroit in 1945. One player remains from the 1948 Indians, 95-year-old Eddie Robinson.

“It seems like it’s just forever,” Robinson said Monday from his home in Fort Worth, Texas. “When we got home from Boston, there was a monumental parade. It just looked like everybody in Cleveland came out on Euclid Avenue.”

One team’s fans will let loose with the celebration of a lifetime. But while history weighs on the supporters, Cubs manager Joe Maddon focuses his players with a nowcentered battle cry of “Win the Inning!”

“Air conditioning is popular right now. So is color TV,” he said.

“You’ve just got to change with the times.”

Both teams worked out under cloudy skies as the new 59-by-221foot scoreboard behind the left-field seats — the largest in the major leagues — trumpeted the Sisyphean matchup. While the Cubs play in Wrigley Field, the 102-year-old brick-and-ivy jewel on Chicago’s North Side, the Indians are in a 22-year-old throwback-style ballpark originally called Jacobs Field.

Led by Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo, the Cubs led the major leagues with 103 wins during the regular season, then beat San Francisco and Los Angeles in the playoffs.

But since the playoffs expanded in 1995, only four teams with the best regular-season record won the title: the 1998 and 2009 New York Yankees, and the 2007 and 2013 Boston Red Sox. Jon Lester, 7-1 in his career against Cleveland, starts for the Cubs and Corey Kluber opens for the Indians. Lester is 2-0 with a 0.86 ERA in three postseason starts this year and 3-0 with a 0.43 ERA in a trio of Series outings. He learned to prepare from watching Curt Schilling and Josh Beckett in Boston.

“They prepared the same way for this start as they would for a regular start during the

TOP PHOTO: CLEVELAND INDIANS SECOND BASEMAN JASON KIPNIS warms up during a team practice for baseball’s upcoming World Series against the Chicago Cubs. MIDDLE: THIS IS A 1916 FILE PHOTO showing Chicago Cubs’ Johnny Evers. Joe Tinker, Evers, Frank Chance and Mordecai Brown helped lead the team to its last World Series championship 108 years ago. ABOVE: EDDIE ROBINSON, 95, is the last living team member from when the Indians last won a World Series championship in 1948. season,” he said.

Kluber pitched shutout ball twice in the playoffs before allowing two runs in five innings in Game 4 at Toronto.

Both teams were dealing with injuries that caused changes in planning. Indians manager Terry Francona, juggling all year because of health mishaps, said right-hander Danny Salazar will be on the World Series roster, which must be submitted this morning. Salazar has not pitched since Sept. 9 because of forearm tightness but threw a simulated game Sunday.

“Nothing’s official, so if we have another drone incident or anything with model airplanes or anything, we reserve the right” to

change, he said, a reference to the injury that limited pitcher Trevor Bauer to two-thirds of an inning in the AL Championship Series.

Chicago appeared likely to include outfielder Kyle Schwarber, out since tearing knee ligaments on April 8, and start him at designated hitter. He returned to action last weekend in the Arizona Fall League.

Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis was dealing with a sprained left ankle, hurt when he jumped and shortstop Francisco Lindor accidentally stepped on his foot while celebrating the last out of the ALCS. “He might not be 100 percent, but I don’t think it’s going to get in the way,” Francona said.

NFL ROUNDUP

Broncos blast Texans Broncos 27, Texans 9 Denver (ap) — The Denver Broncos ruined Brock Osweiler’s homecoming Monday night, incessantly hurrying, hitting and harassing their former teammate in a 27-9 win over his Houston Texans.

Coach Gary Kubiak returned to the sideline following his second health scare in three years, and he had to like what he saw as the Broncos (5-2) snapped a two-game skid in sending the overwhelmed Texans home at 4-3.

C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker energized Denver’s sputtering ground game, both running for a touchdown. Anderson gained 107 yards on 16 carries and Booker had 83 on 17 hand-offs.

But the big story was Trevor Siemian, Peyton

Manning’s surprise successor, outplaying Osweiler, who was groomed to be Denver’s next QB but instead bolted to Houston in free agency.

Osweiler left for bigger numbers in Texas — both in his bank account and his stat sheet — but he spent this night quickly getting rid of the ball, constantly overthrowing DeAndre Hopkins in double coverage and otherwise running for his life from Von Miller & Co.
