Q&A rounds up issues surrounding police vote

COACH BOWEN From dawn until dusk

LJWorld.com

Journal-World reporter Matt Tait and photographer Nick Krug spent a whole day recently with Kansas University interim head football coach Clint Bowen, who has been given the tall task of guiding the struggling Jayhawk football program since the firing of former coach Charlie Weis on Sept. 28. See the story, page 1B.

On Nov. 4, Lawrence voters will decide the fate of a proposed sales tax to fund a new police headquarters. Here are the answers to several questions surrounding the issue.

Q: What would the new police headquarters contain?

A: The primary purpose of the project would be to bring the police force into a single building. Currently, the patrol division is in the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center downtown. Detectives and administrators are in the Investigations and Training Center near Bob Billings Parkway and Wakarusa Drive. Four other buildings across the city house evidence, records, equipment storage, parking control, animal control and other functions.

Under the proposed plan, the city would vacate those buildings and would move all personnel, equipment, records and evidence into a single, new building.

Plans call for the main building to be about 63,000 square feet. In addition, an underground parking garage for police vehicles would add 15,620 square feet, a belowground firing range for training

Halloween to the hilt

P

erhaps it should come as no surprise that the reason behind the haunting in Mike Deines’ yard is tied to a motherin-law.

Wait a minute. Let me rephrase that as I hear the ice beneath my married feet begin to crack.

I’ll try again: A mother-in-law is responsible for the Grim Reaper in Deines’ lawn.

EVERY YEAR Mike Deines, of Eudora, turns his yard at 61 Savage Terrace into a ghoulish Halloween treat.

That doesn’t sound any better, does it? All right, one more time: Deines’ lawn produces Halloween joy and long-lasting memories for hundreds, and he has his mother-in-law to thank.

I knew I would finally get it right, but now you may be confused. Eudora resident Mike

RichaRd William Pasley Services for Richard William Pasley, 54, Lawrence, will be at a later date. Mr. Pasley died October 22, 2014 in Lawrence.

He was born October 31, 1959 in Smyrna, Tennessee.

Rick was a gentle soul, who loved to work with his hands. He built many a bicycle from salvaged parts, and would gladly give one to anybody who needed some wheels.

He was also a very good craftsman, and gardener.

I don’t think there was a plant, tree, or shrub that he couldn’t identify. He loved spending time with

his son, and riding many a mile on his bike. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by a son, Grady Underwood and fiancée Kelsey Richardson, of Lawrence; sister, Ramona Kemberling and husband Dennis, of Eudora; and a niece, Sarah Swan, of Lawrence.

Man shot by police is arrested on suspicion of domestic violence Staff Reports

A Lawrence man shot by police and later charged with assaulting an officer was arrested Friday on suspicion of domestic violence, according to the Douglas County Jail booking log.

Zachary James Ortiz, 24, was arrested about 5:45 Ortiz p.m. at his place of employment in the 1500 block of 23rd Street. Ortiz was booked into the Douglas County Jail on a $3,500 bond. Ortiz’s bond was paid and he was released from jail Saturday evening, the log shows.

Ortiz was already due back in court Nov. 4 for

his arraignment in the previous case, when he was arrested July 10 on one count of aggravated assault stemming from a June 22 confrontation with police during which Ortiz was shot by a Lawrence police officer at Ortiz’s home on Kasold Drive. According to police, Ortiz was shot after refusing orders to drop a firearm he was trying to load.

The officer, Skyler Richardson, testified during a preliminary hearing Sept. 26 in Douglas County District Court that Ortiz leveled a shotgun at him during the encounter, prompting

Richardson to shoot in response.

“He had the shotgun on his shoulder and I could see the barrel,” Richardson told the court. “I did believe he would shoot and was scared for my safety.”

Richardson and the second responding officer, Terry Hack, were put on administrative leave while the incident was investigated. After the District Attorney’s Office ruled their actions justifiable in July, the two returned to their jobs.

Douglas County District Court Judge Peggy Kittel last month bound Ortiz over for trial on one count of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer. He had been free on a $50,000 bond.

Lawrence schools to host science fair meetings The Lawrence school district will host two informational meetings for students in grades 4 through 12 to learn about science and engineering fair opportunities this year.

The meetings will run from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Nov. 11 and 12 at the Kansas University Natural History Museum, 1345 Jayhawk Boulevard.

Audience members

will learn about fairs within the Lawrence school district, as well as pathways to the Greater Kansas City Science and Engineering Fair and the State of Kansas Regional Fair.

United Way volunteers prep 40,000 meals

By Maura Wery Twitter: @LJWorld

More than 200 people helped feed their community Saturday at Free State High School.

Music played, people

cheered, and thousands of meals were prepared for those less fortunate at the fourth annual United Way of Douglas County Great Start Pack. Volunteers at this year’s event made 40,000 servings of a fortified rice

and bean meal that will be distributed by United Way’s partner, Just Food, to local food pantries.

Elizabeth Keever, chief resource officer at Just Food, said though an exact number is hard to quantify, the meals

will help thousands of families countywide.

“Just Food has a lot of storage, so the pantries can come and pick up items as they are needed,” she said.

By the time the Nov. 4 election arrives, there will be some Douglas County residents who will have spent at least four to six hours studying up on the issues.

About 1,400 members of the Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence are receiving special instruction in the processes of voting and democracy as part of the Kids Voting of Douglas County project.

“Our goal is to give every single Boys & Girls Club member four to six hours of education, activity time or some prework leading up to Election Day,” said Nicki VanVelzen, marketing and communications director for the club. “We really want them to have an age-appropriate understanding of the process.”

This is the first year the Boys & Girls Club has been so actively involved with the Kids Voting program, said Ruthi Rapp, cochair of the Kids Voting program. Rapp said the Kids Voting program provides curriculum to all elementary, middle school and high schools in the county. But she said the involvement by the Boys & Girls Club allows students to get an even greater exposure to the democratic process. The Boys & Girls Club provides the lessons and activities during periods after school.

The extra time allows some of the activities to get hands-on, VanVelzen said. She

Yard CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Deines has a haunted yard, and from where he sits, that is a good thing. Deines fills his front yard with skeletons, Grim Reapers, Headless Horsemen, ghosts, goblins, witches, demonic pumpkins and, of course, a homemade hearse. But perhaps the strangest thing is that he and his wife, Wendy, invite people to walk through their yard to see it all. For about two weeks before Halloween, minivans and sedans will pull onto the couple’s Eudora cul-de-sac, and kids and adults alike will start traipsing through the yard. They wear a path around the shade tree, they stop to marvel at the detail of the skeletons, they wonder how the fog comes out of the nose of the Headless Horseman.

(Well, out of the nose of the horse. The Horseman doesn’t have a nose, which is a bit of a sore subject with him.)

Perhaps you think all of this Halloween madness got started because of Deines’ address: 61 Savage Terrace. It is a convenient address for a haunting, but Deines said the genesis of his haunted yard goes back to his mother-in-law’s yard in Nebraska.

“She’s the crazy Christmas lady on her block,” Deines says “I go up there every Thanksgiving and spend days on end on the roof, in the yard, in the garage. It is Chevy Chase crazy up there.”

After one such trip, Deines realized something: He liked it. Decorating the yard was fun.

He and Wendy thought it might be fun to go hogwild and really decorate their house for Christmas

A HALLOWEEN MYSTERY Lawrence resident Graham Bailey is beginning to think he has a haunted yard of a different type.

Bailey and his wife built their Lawrence home at 2704 Westdale Circle in 1987. It has long been blessed with a large, wooded backyard that has created more than its share of adventures and questions for neighborhood kids.

Now, it appears it has created a new Halloween question: “Who is Leo Morgenstern, and what is he doing in my backyard?” Bailey asks.

Well, maybe Morgenstern isn’t actually in Bailey’s backyard, but his tombstone sure is.

Bailey said the grandchildren of some friends recently were playing in the backyard, when one of them asked Bailey why there was a tombstone in his yard. He looked and, sure enough: Leo Morgenstern, 1892-1938. It is a large, heavy, granite tombstone.

Bailey did a little looking on the Internet and found a Leo Morgenstern with the same birth and death dates in a cemetery in Hoisington. He made a few calls to Morgensterns in the central Kansas town and confirmed there is a Leo Morgenstern buried in that cemetery. No one knows much about Leo, other than he died in a car accident. His grave still has a tombstone, one that is shared with his wife. Why this tombstone was ever made and how it ended up in Bailey’s yard is a mystery.

Bailey would like to know some answers, though.

If you know about the tombstone or Morgenstern’s history, e-mail Bailey at grahambailey@sunflower. com.

Absent definitive answers, though, Bailey has a theory. His kids and their neighborhood friends, now all grown adults, swore there was a man who lived in the woods. For whatever reason, they named him Eggman.

“My kids are convinced it is the work of Eggman,” Bailey says. “Maybe.”

Happy Halloween. too. Then, Deines had a chilling thought.

“I didn’t want to compete with my mother-inlaw,” he says.

Yeah, that’s one you can’t win.

But Halloween seemed like it would be fair game. The couple have been decorating for 10 years now, although the first decorations were some yard bags stuffed with leaves and made to look like a spider.

Now, there is a hearse in the front yard.

It is one of those 1800s style horse-drawn hearses. Deines, a financial analyst, built it in his

(One three circuit breakers, of the skeletons is actually for all you electricians

from a medical supply company.)

But there is something else you will find in this yard that is surprising: the spirit of Halloween.

You hear about the spirit of Christmas, or even of Thanksgiving, but not the spirit of Halloween.

Halloween is a holiday for spirits, not one that really evokes a spirit.

Yet, there is one in this yard. The spirit of Halloween is welcoming, it seems. Mike and Wendy invite people to just walk around their yard unsupervised. They wear a dirt path and trample the vegetation in a way that causes gardeners everywhere to suck their green thumbs in distress. And it is all free. There’s not a donation jar anywhere,

even though Deines concedes it does cost several hundred dollars a year to set up the yard.

“This is just something we love doing,” Deines says. “We’ve never even considered a charge or anything like that. We might set it up to collect canned food for a food pantry, but the idea of money and all that starts getting weird.”

And despite what a hearse in the front yard may suggest, Deines isn’t trying to be weird with this haunted yard. It started out as just something fun to do — and that is still a big part of it — but Deines also has come to discover that Halloween is about more than just that. It is about letting people change who they are, if even for just a brief time. Maybe that is why Halloween has become so popular. (The National Retail Federation estimates Americans will spend $7.4 billion on Halloween this year, including $350 million on costumes for their pets.)

And why not? Getting a chance to change who you are can be pretty rare.

“If you are walking down the street in a costume on July 5, people are going to wonder who is missing their idiot,” Deines says.

So, find your way to 61 Savage Terrace. Look for the hearse in the front yard. Deines says the Halloween spirit will be on site for years to come.

“We’re going to keep doing this,” he says.

“There is no question about it. How we’re going to get much bigger, I’m not sure. But we’re having some discussions about the backyard.”

engagement.

Jen Jones, troop leader of Girl Scout Troop No. 7729, said it was the troop’s first year participating in the pack and the girls were “loving it.� “This year the troop wanted to focus on people in the community and help give back to them,�

Jones explained.

She had heard about the event from the mother of one of the troop members and decided to get the entire unit involved. Jones said that the girls, ages 9 and 10, realized they were doing

something good for their community by participating and that the troop planned to return for the event next year.

Maria Meredith, an event veteran, noted a few changes since she, her husband and her kids started volunteering three years ago — mostly, she said, an influx of children getting involved.

Like Jones, Meredith sees the pack as a great way for kids to learn about community service. “This event teaches children the habit of giving,� she said.

kids will be given ballots with just a few of the larger races, while older students will get to vote on all the races and issues that are on the real ballot.

Volunteers with Kids Voting will staff polling stations at all the schools throughout the county.

Volunteers from Lawrence High School will help count the ballots on the evening of Nov. 4.

Rapp said this is the first year the program will have polling stations in all 28 schools across the county. Previously, students had to make their way to polling places spread throughout the community. As

a result, the program is expecting a large increase in the number of student voters. She said the program has printed 5,000 ballots this year. In the last general election, about 3,800 kindergarten through 12th-grade students voted.

The program could still use additional volunteers.

Join me in supporting the sales tax for a new police facility Earlier this year, the City Commission voted unanimously to place a 0.2% sales tax on the November 4 General Election ballot that would pay for a new police facility for the Lawrence Police Department. I fully support this issue; and I am writing this letter to give you my perspective.

The funding of a new police facility is a priority for me and our local law enforcement ofďŹ cers. I consider public safety a top priority for our community and a major factor in assessing the overall quality of life of a community. As a life-long resident of Lawrence and proud supporter of my beloved community, I strongly feel our success relies on what we do to improve our quality of life for each resident, now and into the future.

I know, at times, we may agree or disagree on what should be an issue of priority for our community. However, I believe we can, at all times, agree that public safety is a top priority. Over the past several years, the city has added resources to our police force, including equipment and extra ofďŹ cers, but we are now at a time when we need to consider the facilities and the conditions in which we ask our law enforcement personnel perform their duties.

The proposed sales tax would provide $24.2 million, plus ďŹ nancing costs, for the construction and equipping of a new facility.

If the sales tax reaches its capped amount in less than 9 years, the city would retire the tax ahead of schedule.

I hope that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll join me in supporting the sales tax for a new police facility on November 4. Public safety, and providing an adequate and equipped facility for our local law enforcement, is a priority for me.

DOUGLAS COUNTY

Early voting stronger than usual so far

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

With more than a week left before the Nov. 4 general election, voter turnout in Douglas County is going strong and is on a pace to exceed advance voting in each of the last two mid-term elections.

According to a website that County Clerk Jamie Shew is maintaining, nearly 4,000 Douglas County voters had already cast advance ballots as of Saturday. That includes 1,767 who voted in-person at the county courthouse, plus 2,164 who had returned their ballots by mail.

Shew said about 200 voters per day have been showing up at the county courthouse to cast ballots in person, about double the pace of the past two mid-term elections.

Know your options as you enroll in Medicare

Plan with a purpose

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

It’s Medicare enrollment time, which means area seniors have a lot to think about.

The open enrollment period, which runs from Oct. 15 to Dec. 7, gives seniors the opportunity to change or enroll in Medicare Advantage and prescription-drug plans for 2015. Those plans also change from year to year, so seniors who use them need to check their policies to see if anything is different.

“During the open-enrollment period, you should know about the main changes you can make,” If you have said AARP been diagnosed Kansas Director Maren with a new mediTurner. “You cal condition or can switch from origi- changed medicanal Medicare tion, you really to Medicare need to take this Advantage, or from one period as a time Medicare Ad- to compare plans vantage plan to make sure to another, or you’re getting from one prescription drug the coverage you plan to an- need.” other, or join a prescription — Maren Turner, AARP drug plan.”

Kansas director Turner recommends that seniors consider the four “C’s”: cost (premiums, deductibles, copay, coinsurance); coverage (doctors, services, medications); convenience (accessibility of the doctors and services in the plan); and customer service (find out plan quality ratings at Medicare. gov).

“If you have been diagnosed with a new medical condition or changed medication, you need to really take this period as a time to compare plans to make sure you’re getting the coverage you need,” Turner said. “It’s really important to take this open-enrollment period very seriously.”

Seniors 65 and older automatically qualify for Medicare Part A (inpatient coverage) and Medicare Part B (outpatient). Part A has no premium if the beneficiary worked at least 10 years at a job that paid Medicare taxes, while most beneficiaries pay $104.90 a month for the Part B premium. The Part A deductible is $1,216 (it will go up to $1,260 next year), while the Part B deductible is $147. Many seniors also purchase supplemental policies to fill in the coverage gaps from Parts A and B. Thanks to 2010 Affordable Care Act, the Medicare prescription drug coverage gap, or “doughnut hole,” continues to close. Beneficiaries now pay 47.5 percent of the cost of brandname drugs, and will pay 45 percent next year (for generics, it is 72 percent this year and will be 65 percent in 2015).

A happy retirement takes more than money

By Arley Hoskin Special to the Journal-World

When it comes to retirement, it takes more than a great financial portfolio to make the experience a happy one.

Lawrence resident Carolyn Harden retired in February.

She recommends that retirees have activities and social outlets to keep them busy.

“You are used to being in charge and in control of things, and now they are getting along without you and it’s kind of a feeling of emptiness,” Harden said. “I was warned about that.”

Harden found plenty of ways to keep herself busy after retiring as office manager at First United Methodist Church. She plays golf, bridge and pickleball and also spends a lot of time with her grandchildren.

“I had a lot of projects lined up to do to keep me super busy initially,” Harden said.

Rev. Clayton Smith, executive pastor at Church of the

“

When (retirees) help other people, they discover that they are helping themselves by helping other people.”

— Rev. Clayton Smith, pastor at Church of the Resurrection in Leawood Resurrection in Leawood, leads a pre-retirement conference annually at the church.

If Smith had to choose one word to sum up the key to a happy retirement, it would be “purpose.”

“Many people want to leave a legacy,” Smith said.

Smith described having the financial stability as one piece of the puzzle to achieve that legacy.

He advises that retirees focus on planning for three aspects of retirement: social activities, finances and health.

“The most important thing is planning,” Smith said. “The first plan that they need to do is a financial plan.”

Maren Turner, director for AARP Kansas, encourages people to start financial

plans as soon as they can. She recommends that people use AARP’s retirement calculator, available at AARP.org, to ensure that they are on target with their retirement goals.

“I don’t think it’s ever too early to go in and use the retirement calculator,” Turner said.

Other online tools available at mutualfundstore.com can help a person determine what kind of lifestyle he or she wants to have in retirement.

“Retirement means different things for different people,” Turner said. “A lot of people, unfortunately, aren’t able to save enough for the lifestyle they want to have.”

Once you have your finances lined up, Smith recommends that everyone

create a vision for how they want their retirement to look with the resources they have.

“The second plan is to write a new purpose statement,” Smith said. “There are certain things that are more important than money.”

Smith said people often find purpose in retirement through community service and time spent with family and friends.

“When they help other people, they discover that they are helping themselves by helping other people,” Smith said.

Harden said she found an outlet for community service and social activities through the First United Methodist’s Socially Active Seniors group. The group plays pickleball twice a week and goes on monthly day trips in addition to raising money for ministries throughout the church.

Smith said the third key to a happy retirement is to maintain good health. Tips for how to stay healthy during retirement are available at planforyourhealth.com.

retirement communities often offer their residents free transportation. l Consider using a personal home-monitoring system. With services such as Lifeline, you wear a device around your neck or wrist that allows you to push a button to seek help in case of an emergency. l Get vaccinated.

The elderly are at a high risk of developing influenza-related complications, which can lead to death, so the annual flu shot is vital.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also recommends that adults 60 and older get two pneumococcal vaccines, as well as the zoster vaccine that protects against shingles. l Exercise regularly.

“That’s a big booster for the immune system,” Anderson said.

There are many indoor locations in Lawrence that offer free or low-cost fitness activities, including the new Sports Pavilion Lawrence, 100 Rock Chalk Lane (free for Douglas County residents), which features a 1-mile walking track.

“People don’t have to walk in circles around Target anymore,” An-

derson added. l Practice proper nutrition. Eating right helps keep your immune system healthy.

That includes drinking plenty of water — because it gets drier in the winter — and consuming lots of fruits and vegetables. l Socialize. Surrounding yourself with other people can help prevent seasonal depression.

One option is the Lawrence Senior Center, 745 Vermont St., which offers activities and a place to hang out with others. “Be positive. Get out there. Be vibrant,” Drees said. “Lawrence is a nice town — take advantage of all those opportunities!” l Protect yourself against illness. Wash

your hands often and avoid large crowds, particularly if you have a compromised immune system. l Keep your mind engaged. “The mind is so important in leading the body,” Drees said.

“There are so many studies that show mental attitude reflected in blood pressure, hormones, lymph.”

Preparation, mindset key to smooth medical visits

By Arley Hoskin

You Inspire Us!...

“

If patients have concerns, they should definitely talk to us about it. Some people do With a little planning get nervous, and that’s understandable.”

Special to the Journal-World

and the right mentality, you need not dread a medical visit.

Karen Roberts, a nurse practitioner with the Internal Medicine Group, recently gave a workshop on how to have a good medical visit, as part of the Lawrence Public Library’s Skillbuilders series.

“We want patients to get the most out of their medical care,” Roberts said.

Roberts told the workshop participants to come to their visits prepared.

That includes bringing a list of all current medications and allergies. New patients should bring their medical history with them.

Roberts said patients should also let their care providers know whether they are taking any overthe-counter medications or herbal supplements.

Sherri Vaughn, a family practice physician with Lawrence Memorial Hospital, agreed that patients who are prepared typically have a smoother visit.

Along with preparing a medical history, Vaughn said patients should also prepare mentally for their visit by reducing their stress level.

“That underlying anxiety has an effect on how their visit may go,” Vaughn said.

Patients who come to

— Karen Roberts, nurse practitioner with the Internal Medicine Group medical visits with high anxiety can have increased blood pressure readings.

Vaughn and Roberts both recommend that patients allow plenty of time to arrive at the office and fill out their paperwork.

Traffic delays are one thing that can increase a patient’s anxiety before a visit, Vaughn said.

Regular patients should arrive 10 minutes before their appointment times and new patients should arrive 30 minutes before.

Vaughn and Roberts recommend that patients wear comfortable clothes to their appointments, including a shirt that allows access to their arms if they need lab work done.

When scheduling an appointment, a patient should let the office know exactly what the appointment is for to allow enough time for the visits. And patients who have experienced chest pain, abdominal pain or shortness of breath should let their providers know at the beginning of the visit, Roberts said.

The shift to electronic medical records has become a source of anxiety for some patients, Roberts

said. Some worry about records security, and others feel medical providers spend too much time looking at the computer and not enough engaging the patient. Roberts said these are valid issues and patients should be up front with their provider about these concerns.

“If patients have concerns, they should definitely talk to us about it,” Roberts said. “Some people do get nervous, and that’s understandable.”

Roberts said she has shown patients how the electronic records work to ease their worries. With the electronic system, providers can now view a patient’s blood pressure or lab results with the click of a button.

Providers can also send prescriptions to the pharmacy through the computer.

“When they see the capabilities, they appreciate the computer as a tool,” Roberts said.

Roberts also said patients should tell their providers about any underlying concerns. This allows the provider to put the symptoms into context.

“We really are trying to be a partner with them in their care,” Roberts said.

All ages can take classes at KU’s Osher Institute

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

Lawrence-area residents have a chance to continue learning well into their twilight years thanks to the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Kansas University.

The center offers short, university-quality classes on a variety of subjects, meant to expand people’s knowledge no matter their age.

“No tests. No homework. No pressure,” said Jim Peters, director of the Osher Institute, 1515 St. Andrews Drive.

The Osher Institute at KU, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2014, offers classes on enough topics to interest just about anyone: movies, politics, history, art, sports, technology.

The courses generally consist of three twohour sessions taught by local experts. Three thousand people took classes at the Osher Institute last year.

“History is by far our most popular topic, especially Kansas history.

The next most popular topics are probably literature and art.” Peters said, adding: “I think we’re successful because we do offer so many new

will be completely closed by 2020,” said Criss Tomlin, the Douglas County coordinator for Senior Health Insurance Counseling for Kansas, or SHICK. She added that some prescription deductibles have gone up by $10 for 2015.

There are nine Medicare Advantage plans available to Douglas County residents for 2015, as well as 28 standalone prescriptiondrug policies. Medicare Advantage policies are private HMO or PPO plans. Not a lot of Kansans use them, however, because many of the in-network doctors and hospitals are located in urban areas, Tomlin said.

People age 65 and older can sign up for Medicare online or at the local Social Security office. Seniors who are on Social Security are automatically enrolled in Medicare. Seniors who

It’s also not too late to sign up for classes this fall at the Osher Institute. Remaining courses include: l The Origins of Russian Civilization: 8621672 presented by KU Russian studies professor Gerald Mikkelson from 2 to 4 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 5 and Nov. 12. l Dream On: Americans and their Utopias presented by former Kansas City Star writer Aaron Barnhart from 7 to 9 p.m. on Nov. 3, 10 and 17. l World’s Best Short Stories presented by retired KU English professor Jerry Masinton from 2 to 4 p.m. Nov. 10, 17 and 24. l The U.S. and the Law of Armed Conflicts: Targeted Killings, Drones and Cyberwarfare presented by KU law professor Mike Hoeflich from 2 to 4 p.m.

Lawmaker’s husband pushes to remove judge who ordered same-sex licenses Louisburg (ap) — The husband of a state senator from northeast Kansas has begun a campaign to oust a trial judge who ordered a court clerk to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Brian Baumgardner announced the campaign against Johnson County Chief District Judge Kevin Moriarty on Friday, accusing him in a statement of believing that his “personal views supersede legal protocol, the will of the voters, and the Kansas Constitution.”

Johnson County voters will decide Nov. 4 whether to retain Moriarty for another fouryear term in the 10th Judicial Circuit. He was first appointed by Demo-

“

cratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius in 2004 and won retention votes in 2006 and 2010.

Baumgardner and his wife, Republican state Sen. Molly Baumgardner, live in the town of Louisburg in neighboring Miami County. But he told The Kansas City Star that “a bad judge harms everybody.”

“I have watched this stinker for 20 years,” said Baumgardner, who teaches at Johnson County Community College. “He is a prime example of an activist judge with a super ego.”

Moriarty issued his administrative order Oct. 8, two days after the U.S. Supreme Court let stand lower-court

He is a prime example of an activist judge with a super ego.”

— Brian Baumgardner, Johnson County Community College instructor rulings striking down bans on gay marriage as unconstitutional.

The Kansas Supreme Court quickly barred the issuance of any licenses at the request of Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt and has scheduled a hearing on the matter Nov. 6.

Critics have said Moriarty didn’t have the authority to issue the order

since he was not asked to decide on a specific case challenging the Kansas constitutional amendment barring same-sex marriage.

In a statement Oct. 10, Moriarty said he acted “based upon my understanding of the law. I do not regret my decision.

What I do regret is that my decision has caused other judges in Johnson County and Kansas to be unfairly labeled by some individuals who do not agree with this decision.”

Molly Baumgardner was appointed by Johnson County Republican precinct leaders to fill a vacancy in the Kansas Senate in April. She is running unopposed in November for a full term.

Sixth and Iowa will be paved this weekend Staff Reports

Lawrence: l A project to reconstruct the intersection of Sixth and Iowa streets is nearing completion. This weekend, the city will work to mill and overlay the pavement in the construction area. On Friday afternoon, milling of the entire construction area will begin. After 7 p.m., access to Iowa will be closed to mill through the intersection and will reopen when milling is completed around 10 p.m. After milling is complete, Sixth Street will remain one lane, in each direction, overnight and throughout the day on Saturday. At 8 a.m. Saturday, overlay of the construction area will begin.

Access to Iowa will be closed while paving is occurring on Saturday morning. When the work is completed on Saturday afternoon, all lanes of traffic will be open. l A project to reconstruct the intersection of 23rd and Iowa streets has moved into the final phase. Traffic will be contained to the south and west sides of the intersection and each approach to the intersection will have a dedicated left turn lane and one lane for through traffic. l Crews have moved into the next phase of a project that will add a turn lane to the intersection of Sixth and Iowa

streets. Sixth Street will be widened for the installation of a dedicated westbound left turn lane. The southbound ramp from McDonald Drive to eastbound Sixth Street is closed. Traffic has been shifted to the north side of the roadway on new pavement constructed in the previous phase to maintain four lanes of traffic along Sixth Street. Possible single-lane closures may occur between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. on weekdays. l A project is underway to construct a new diamond interchange at Kansas Highway 10 and Bob Billings Parkway/15th Street. Work will take place during daylight hours, Monday through Friday, with some occasional Saturday work. Crews have begun setting traffic control for the project. At this time, there are minimal motorist impacts, but the work has caused a need to detour the South Lawrence Trafficway trail between Sixth Street and Bob Billings Parkway.

S. Lawrence Trafficway: l In December, a threeyear construction project began to complete the 6-mile, four-lane Kansas Highway 10/South Lawrence Trafficway freeway. Advance notification will be sent under separate cover for each phase of construction.

A BIPARTISAN APPEAL FOR UNITY

Business venture Compromise vital It’s great to see Lawrence VenturePark open for business.

T

he opening of Lawrence VenturePark certainly is worthy of a community celebration.

City and business officials gathered at the former Farmland Industries property last week to mark the completion of city improvements that have prepared the 220-acre site to accommodate new businesses. The city has issued about $8.5 million in debt to build roads, utility lines and other needed infrastructure at the park. With that work complete, City Manager David Corliss pointed out, the city now can quit showing business prospects the plan for development and start “showing them what we’ve built.”

The vision for VenturePark started to take shape after the Farmland fertilizer plant went bankrupt more than a decade ago. The abandoned plant was an eyesore at the eastern entrance into Lawrence but it also presented some tantalizing opportunities. The cost of dealing with environmental problems caused by years of nitrogen fertilizer spills on the property was a major concern but appears to be under control.

The city received $8.5 million in remediation funds from the Farmland bankruptcy settlement. It has spent some of that money but still has about $6.5 million left to deal with future costs associated with monitoring and pumping groundwater at the site.

The opening of VenturePark is a promising step for local business development. The park is broken into 18 sites ranging from 2.5 acres to 78.7 acres to accommodate a variety of business uses. It is located right on Kansas Highway 10 and adjacent to a rail line.

The completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway also will provide easy access to Interstate 70 west of Lawrence and to U.S. Highway 59 and Interstate 35 to the south.

According to local economic development officials, VenturePark is drawing interest from manufacturers and distribution centers. Hopefully, the opening of the park soon will attract additional jobs to the community. More and more, local residents are realizing that Lawrence is a better place to live if it’s also a better place to work. VenturePark could e a huge benefit to the city by creating new jobs and building the city’s tax base.

The table is now set. When the jobs and business investment arrive, local residents will have real cause for celebration.

Ideological purity to U.S. democracy hinders good policy

By Thomas Wheatley

“Connecticut? Aye. Delaware? Aye. Georgia? No.” Scribbling frantically, James Madison, serving in the capacity of chief recorder of the Constitutional Convention, could barely keep pace with the roll call.

“Maryland? Aye. Massachusetts? Divided; Mr. Gerry and Mr. Strong, aye, Mr. King and Mr. Gorham, no.”

The division of the Massachusetts delegation was a testament to the power of honest debate. Though Rufus King had arrived at the Constitutional Convention doubting the need to amend the Articles of Confederation, his interaction with other delegates led him to change his mind.

The vote continued.

“New Jersey? Aye. North Carolina? Aye”.

Madison reeled for a moment; given its population, an affirmative vote from North Carolina was remarkable.

“Pennsylvania? No. South Carolina? No. Virginia? No.” Madison recounted the votes cast. With a final vote of five aye’s, four no’s, and one division, the ayes prevailed, and the measure was passed.

He marked in his notes the following: “Resolved. that in the 2d. branch of the Legislature of the U. S. each State shall have an equal vote.”

The agreement would come to be called the Great Compromise and it bequeathed upon the United States an extraordinary gift: that these United States would be governed by a bicameral legislature, comprised of a House of Representatives and a Senate. But something even greater had transpired: the delegates compromised. They broke through obstacles, cast aside personal ambition, and rejected ideological purity to guarantee the survival of the liberty. Out of dissonance, a mandate of unity was forged.

I wish our elected leaders today held compromise in the same light as our Founding Fathers. Today, rather, to compromise is to commit political suicide. As a Republican, I am disappointed my party has played a role in this tragic shift in American politics.

Without compromise,

stories that now represent extraordinary moments of American triumph would instead be reminders of when democracy failed. Reconstruction following the Civil War would have been a merciless quest for vengeance, the Marshall Plan would have remained an idea, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 would have died in the Senate, and Neil Armstrong would have never landed on the moon.

As Republicans, toeing the party line has done nothing to help us advance our agenda, either. Has the national debt been reduced? Are states’ rights more protected than before? Has the size of the federal bureaucracy been reduced? Is our national defense Wheatley stronger? I think not.

It is clear: The very fabric of our society is firmly grounded in compromise, and no prudent man or woman can deny the crucial role compromise has played in promulgating the freedoms we enjoy today.

For these reasons, I make an appeal to my party: We must change course.

This November, we are likely to gain control of the very chamber formed by the Great Compromise. With this in mind, I am honored to join former Congressman Jim Slattery in urging you to keep unity close to your heart come this November. Recognize the necessity for compromise in government, for it is the price we pay for unity. Our survival as a nation depends upon it.

Elect those candidates that will serve reason, not partisan politics, and ensure that our two-hundred year-old mandate of unity endures for the next generation of Americans.

— Thomas Wheatly is a native of Lawrence and a 2010 graduate of Lawrence High School. He holds a bachelor’s degree from EmbryRiddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Fla., and is attending law school at George Mason University in Arlington, Va. He has served as an intern for Sen. Jerry Moran and worked for the Mitt Romney presidential campaign.

During my time in Congress, I had the privilege of being around for some of the most remarkable moments of bipartisanship in our country’s recent history. I witnessed the 1983 reform of Social Security, as well as the Tax Reform Act of 1986. I rejoiced with both Republicans and Democrats in 1989 as the Berlin Wall fell. In 1990, I cast my vote in favor of the Americans with Disabilities Act. We curbed gun violence in America through the bipartisan Brady Handgun Bill, and the means for our military to liberate Kuwait from Saddam Hussein’s dictatorial regime were decided by a cooperative Congress. The list goes on and on.

Regardless of the disagreements we held, it seemed as though there was no challenge insurmountable. Gridlock was not an option. On major issues, President Reagan and Speaker O’Neill were able to find the compromise necessary to move our country forward.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for today.

Political brinksmanship is now the norm, and while it is easy to follow the crowd and place total blame on Republicans and the Tea Party, Democrats must accept our share of responsibility. After all, politics is a two-way street, and we have certainly made our fair share of mistakes.

As an example, we succeeded in expanding health care coverage for millions of Americans, a feat certainly worth celebrating, but have also made no effort to seriously address the debt crisis that will someday haunt our children. Despite efforts by some in both parties to address the issue of Social Security and Medicare insolvency, these important programs for millions of — Jim Slattery served six terms Americans continues to dein the U.S. House representing the teriorate.

poll indicated that the farthest-left liberal wing of the Democratic Party is larger than it has been in the last 20 years. The ranks of the Blue Dog Democrats, a caucus of moderate Democrats, are thinning, and conservative Democrats are becoming a rare breed in Congress.

Taken together, these factors are great news for ideological purity, but are toxic for good policy. That is why it is so important we safeguard against extremism in our party. The left must be willing to compromise with the right.

W h e n I ran for the U.S. Senate in 2008, I promised to put Kansans ahead of any political party. Slattery I reached out to Democrats, Republicans and independent voters alike in the hopes of bringing people together for one purpose: to solve the big problems of our time.

My conviction in the idea of strength through bipartisanship and unity remains as resilient as ever. I believe that together, we can still solve the big problems.

I am proud to stand with my young Republican friend, Thomas Wheatley, in a call for unity. This November, I ask every Kansan to cast aside partisan politics, and instead look to their conscience for guidance as they decide who will serve as their voice in government. Our country deserves nothing better than people who will serve with sound judgment, commitment to duty, and the recognition that democracy cannot survive without compromise.

Right now, our nation is looking for unity to make a comeback; let Kansas be the place where that happens.

Giants even Series, 2-all Marcio Jose Sanchez/AP Photo

SAN FRANCISCO’S PABLO SANDOVAL hits a single during Game 4 of the World Series on Saturday night in San Francisco.

San Francisco (ap) — Down three runs and in danger of getting pushed to the World Series brink, Pablo Sandoval and the San Francisco Giants raised up some Panda-monium.

Sandoval’s single set up the tying run in the fifth inning and the 2012 Series MVP followed with a goahead, two-run single in the sixth that sent the Giants surging past the Kansas City Royals, 11-4, Sat-

urday night at pulsating AT&T Park.

Hunter Pence, eyes ablaze, had three hits, three RBIs and a nifty sliding catch in the ninth inning, and Joe Panik hit a two-run double in a fourrun seventh. San Francisco piled on 16 hits in a game that took exactly four hours.

The Series is tied at two games apiece, ensuring the title will be decided at Kan-

sas City’s Kauffman Stadium next week.

Madison Bumgarner tries to put the Giants ahead tonight when he starts against Royals ace James Shields in a rematch of the opener, won by the Giants, 7-1.

Showcasing baseball at its exciting best, the game included a sprawling catch

by Royals center fielder Jarrod Dyson that left a pair of divots, and the first use of expanded video review in

Series history — which became a turning point. Jeff Kellogg’s safe call at second base was upheld on catcher Salvador Perez’s pickoff attempt of Joaquin Arias, helping the Giants build the pivotal rally.

Four fans in the first row near the Giants dugout wore giant — of course — panda heads as they cheered on Sandoval, nicknamed Kung Please see ROYALS, page 2B

A day in the life

KANSAS UNIVERSITY INTERIM HEAD FOOTBALL COACH CLINT BOWEN works through a defensive plan for Baylor with coaches Scott Vestal, front, Ty Greenwood, Dave Campo and Buddy Wyatt on Wednesday.

Interim coach Clint Bowen right at home

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The sign outside the door of room 140A at the Anderson Family Football Complex simply says “Conference.” But make no mistake about it, the room belongs to Clint Bowen. At least for the time being.

This is not a dictatorship by any means. But Kansas University’s interim head football coach clearly is in control of everything related to Kansas football these days. From injury updates and academic

reports each morning to installing game plans and inspiring effort at practice each afternoon, Bowen has his fingerprints all over the program that has held a firm grip on a corner of his heart for as long as he can remember.

Three games and four weeks into his new role, the 42-year-old Bowen is maximizing every minute of his shot to prove he’s the right guy for the job. And with five games remaining in the audition, there’s not much room in the day-to-day operation for wasted time.

Rarely do you see Bowen doing just one thing at a time. While he’s watching film, he’s taking notes. While he’s drawing up plays on the white board in the 18-footby-18-foot defensive meeting room known as “the dungeon” — remember, Bowen is still KU’s defensive coordinator — you see his mind return to earlier conversations about the situation.

And while he puts one foot in front of the other during yet another 15-hour work day — during the Jayhawks’ bye week, no less — Bowen

does so with the confidence of a veteran coach and the spirit of a junior high kid, cracking a smile here and there, clowning around with players and coaches, even busting chops. When things drift to distraction, Bowen is quick to bring the focus back to football with simple and direct instructions — “all right, fellas, let’s lock back in.”

Last Wednesday, the Journal-World got the chance to go behind the scenes for a look at a day in the life of Bowen. From

sunup to sundown, every step the former KU safety took revealed a coach who values hard work above all else and has a darn good time along the way.

Firebirds repeat at state gymnastics

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Overland Park — People say the toughest thing to do in sports is to defend a championship. Free State High’s gymnasts learned of the difficulties during the regular season, when they just coudn’t find a way to beat Olathe East.

But when it mattered most and the lights shined the brightest, the Firebirds were back in a familiar spot, standing in the middle of the medal podium at the state meet.

The Firebirds won their second straight state championship, and picked up their third title in four years on Saturday at Shawnee

Mission West High. After edging the Hawks, 107.125106.65, Free State became the first school to repeat as state champion since Olathe East in 2007-08.

“It’s pretty awesome, especially because we’ve worked on it all year,” senior Carrie Howland said. “To come into this meet and all work together, because ev-

eryone contributed — Haley (Johnson) on beam, Grace (Bartle) on floor, with those amazing scores. Just to come together and get it all our senior year is awesome.”

Over the past two weeks, the Firebirds worked furiKevin Anderson/Special to the Journal-World ously to clean up their routines and add difficult skills FREE STATE’S GRACE BARTLE works on the uneven bars at the state gymnastics meet Please see GYMS, page 6B Saturday in Overland Park.

Alex Smith, Chiefs get another shot at St. Louis

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The future and fortunes of the Kansas City Chiefs changed dramatically by what happened in St. Louis two years ago, in the early stages of a game that they weren’t even playing.

The San Francisco 49ers had visited the Edward Jones Dome to play the Rams. Alex Smith was their quarterback. On a play late in the first quarter, Smith was scrambling when he took a shot from linebacker JoLonn Dunbar to the back of his neck. Dazed, Smith remained in the game, only to get sacked three plays later and clobbered again on a fourth-and-1 keeper.

Smith had sustained a concussion. Colin Kaepernick replaced him in the game and, well, the rest is history. Smith never earned back his job, was traded to Kansas City after the season, and has now signed a long-term deal to stay with the Chiefs.

Sunday, he gets another shot at the Rams when they visit Arrowhead Stadium.

“I haven’t given that much thought,” Smith said. “I remember the game, remember it well. But yeah, haven’t really thought about the what-ifs.”

Instead, Smith has been focusing on helping the Chiefs (3-3) build on a big win at San Diego last weekend. The same team that was ravaged by injuries two weeks into the season has become one of the league’s hottest, the play of its veteran quarterback perhaps the biggest reason why.

Smith threw for 221 yards and a touchdown against San Diego, deftly leading the Chiefs on a 62-yard drive to set up Cairo Santos’ winning field goal with 21 seconds left.

“Alex is playing very, very well,” Rams coach Jeff Fisher said. “They’ve done some amazing things with him as far as timing’s concerned. That ball’s coming out and it’s accurate and they put a lot of stress on your defense by the way they disperse the receivers.

Then, of course, they have a diverse running game and they’re liable to come up with anything at any time.”

The Rams (2-4), meanwhile, hope Austin Davis can build on his performance in last week’s narrow win over Seattle, when he threw for 155 yards and two TDs without an interception.

Fu Panda and a veteran of the team’s World Series titles in 2010 and ’12. The switch-hitter batted just .199 right-handed during the regular season but came up with his first twohit game from that side of the plate since Aug. 25, emphatically tossing his bat after lining a single to center that put the Giants ahead.

Lost in the torrent of runs was the earlier fit of pique by Giants manager Bruce Bochy, who threw his hat to the dugout floor when his infielders botched a third-inning grounder. The mood was different by the eighth, when former Journey singer Steve Perry sprinted to the front row of the second deck behind home plate and led the crowd of 43,066 in a sing-along of “When the Lights Go Down in the City.”

The Series outlook seemed far different in the third inning, when ominous, dark clouds formed over the bayside ballpark, and the Royals burst ahead 4-1 against Ryan Vogelsong with the help of the botched grounder. Orangeclad fans quieted, and there even were scattered boos.

But Yusmiero Petit settled the NL champions with three innings of scoreless, two-hit relief to improve to 3-0 in the postseason, and 11 different Giants had hits. Three of the 10 Giants in the No. 9 spot had hits; Petit singled to become the first Giants reliever to get a hit in the postseason in 78 years.

Royals manager Ned Yost stayed with starter Jason Vargas into the fifth inning, removing him after Panik’s leadoff double. Royals relievers had been 7-0 in the postseason and in Game 3 pitched four hitless innings to preserve a 3-2 win.

But Yost couldn’t get to his HDH triad of hard-throwing relievers: Kelvin Herrera, Wade Davis and Greg Holland.

Jason Frasor and Danny Duffy combined to allow the tying run in a two-run fifth.

And Brandon Finnegan, the first player to appear in the College World Series and World Series in the same year, allowed Sandoval’s two-

Pence’s RBI forceout in the first gave the Giants a shortlived lead.

Kansas City went ahead with a two-out four-run rally in the third with the help of two infield hits that gave the Royals 18 in the postseason, matching the total of all other teams combined.

Eric Hosmer hit a slow tapper to the right side. Belt ranged far off first base to field it, and quickly looked to see if he could get a forceout at second.

With no play there, Belt whirled around and tried to toss to Vogelsong. But the pitcher didn’t get to the bag cleanly, messed up his footwork and had no chance to prevent Hosmer from reaching with a tying single.

Bochy slammed his cap to the dugout floor. Omar Infante grounded a two-run single up the middle for a 3-1 lead, making him 10 for 15 against Vogelsong, and Perez followed with a bloop single to short center for a 4-1 lead.

Buster Posey cut the deficit in the bottom half with an RBI single, tying Barry Bonds’ team record of 21 career postseason RBIs, and the Giants tied the score in the fifth.

After Panik’s leadoff double, Frasor relieved with one out and Pence hit an RBI single that caused Frasor to throw up both arms in frustration. Duffy entered, Sandoval singled Pence to third, Duffy loaded the bases with a four-pitch walk to Belt and Juan Perez’s sacrifice fly made it 4-all.

“This whole thing could have been avoided if Greene would have simply left that handicapped parking space available for whom it was intended,” Warner said. “Even after getting caught illegally parking there, all he had to do was talk to the parking enforcement officer about the $51 citation she was writing him.

Instead, he turned a parking ticket into all of this.”

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Brown impressed by Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tradition

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Larry Brown chuckled when informed he, Ted Owens, Bill Self and Roy Williams on Monday will represent 51 of the 60 seasons in Allen Fieldhouse lore.

The four living Kansas University head basketball coaches will be featured speakers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and guests in a Jay Bilas-led roundtable â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Celebrating 60 Yearsâ&#x20AC;? event, set for a 7:30 p.m., start in KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tradition-rich building. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a small frac-

tion of that,â&#x20AC;? said thirdyear SMU coach Brown, who went 135-44 overall â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 71-5 at home â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in five seasons at KU. Owens, meanwhile, worked 19 seasons and Williams 15, while Self is beginning season No. 12 on Mount Oread. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was a big part of my life being there,â&#x20AC;?

Brown quickly added of KU. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seeing what Bill has done (325-69; 175-9 at home), and what Royâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done (418-101, 201-17 at home) and what Ted (348-182, 206-47 at home) meant to the program be-

fore I got there ... itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to be part of that.â&#x20AC;?

Brown concedes it is unusual to have so few coaches over so long a period of time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you consider a program of that magnitude, what it means to college athletics and basketball in particular itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of mind boggling,â&#x20AC;?

Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you consider Dr. (James) Naismith was there and John McLendon (who tutored under Naismith) was there and coach (Dean) Smith and Phog Allen and Wilt (Chamberlain),

Clyde Lovellette. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unbelievable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look at the people who have been a big part of my life, certainly coach Smith and McLendon,â&#x20AC;? added the 74-year-old Brown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize the impact he (McLendon) had on my life. I think about Bill (Self, former grad assistant on Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff) and all the players I coached and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unbelievable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Look at the kids I coached ... Turg (Mark Turgeon, Maryland coach) and Danny (Manning, Wake Forest coach) and R.C.

(Buford, former member of Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff now GM of Spurs), Kevin Pritchard (GM of Indiana Pacers), Milt (Newton, GM of Minnesota Timberwolves). Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unbelievable what those people have been able to do. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take lightly.â&#x20AC;?

Brown is the only coach to have won both an NCAA (KU in 1988) and NBA title (Detroit in 2004). He left the New Jersey Nets head coaching post to replace Owens at KU in 1983. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thing that meant the most to me is when

I got the job and how the Allens reached out to me,â&#x20AC;? Brown said of the Allen family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody that was ever involved in KU basketball before was so supportive. I think so much of that has to do with my relationship with coach Smith obviously.

The pride everybody had and felt for what he (Smith) was able to accomplish I think helped my transition and Royâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as much as anything.â&#x20AC;?

FSHS volleyball edges LHS, then falls at sub-state

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Olathe â&#x20AC;&#x201D; There are a couple of tricks to getting through a sub-state volleyball tournament and into the promised land that is known by a single word: state. One is peaking at the right time. The other is drawing a favorable matchup.

Both Free Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball teams left the Class 6A Olathe South sub-state tourney Saturday afternoon feeling they had played at as high a level as they had at any point this season. But neither had quite enough to topple some familiar opposition.

The Firebirds completed a season sweep of the Lions, winning 25-21, 25-22, in a semifinal before dropping two straight sets to defending 6A champion Olathe East, 25-17, 25-20.

Free Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sydney

Moreano, still wiping away some tears moments after she and fellow seniors Paige Corcoran, Morgan Noll and Bayley Witcher Goscha took part in the final match of their careers, said she felt proud, in spite of the season-ending setback. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come a long way from the beginning of the season.

We have the fight now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a little too late,â&#x20AC;?

Moreano said, forcing a chuckle.

FSHS coach Nancy Hopkins agreed, saying the team gelled in the final week of the season and played well against O-East, an opponent that â&#x20AC;&#x153;pretty much killedâ&#x20AC;? the Firebirds earlier this season.

With kills from sophomore Emma Barberena, junior Allison Knapp, sophomore Naomi Hickman and sophomore Payton Gannaway early in the second set against the Hawks, Free State

ond set. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Toward the end, I think everybody felt just how close we were, and that we could beat a team like that.â&#x20AC;?

FREE STATEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NAOMI HICKMAN (29) works against Lawrence Highâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Caroline Dykes (13) and Jensen Edwards on Saturday in Olathe. had the match tied at 13, and later got as close as a 22-20 deficit before the devastating swings of OEast finally propelled the defending champs back to state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give up,â&#x20AC;?

Hopkins said of the Firebirds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout the season, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d get behind five or six and tend to roll over and die. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

do that. It wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been easy to do that to these guys, because they hit really hard.â&#x20AC;?

The Firebirds (1919) trailed 14-5 early in the first set, but proved something to themselves from that point on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really hit people that we were so close, and we were up,â&#x20AC;?

Moreano said of the sec-

Lions improve, but fall Similar sentiments flowed out of the LHS postgame huddle, following the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth straight loss to rival Free State.

Just two days earlier, the Firebirds dismantled Lawrence (13-25) by scores of 25-13, 25-15, 25-12. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After the game Thursday,â&#x20AC;? Lawrence junior Caroline Dykes shared, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we were all angry about that loss. I think (Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s showing) was just built-up emotion from always losing against them, and we wanted to give them our best shot, because we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to do that.â&#x20AC;?

The Lions did all they could in the first-round sub-state loss. Dykes, senior Keeli Billings and

senior Marlee Bird came through with key points in the first set to keep an upset win within reach.

In the second set, an ace from junior Kyleigh Severa, followed shortly by kills from junior Katie Murrish, senior Makayla Wagner and Dykes, gave LHS a 16-10 advantage.

But Free State stole away momentum with a 7-0 run, with Gannaway serving. FSHS junior Lauren Johnson and Gannaway set their teammates up throughout the victory, and Hickman punctuated the Firebirdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; win with a kill.

It was the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; third City Showdown loss in the past week, but LHS coach Stephanie Magnuson said this one was her teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best performance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really just put everything out on the table and played relentless,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They went after it, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going out feeling good.â&#x20AC;?

Bowen CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

sign of light in several corners of the KU football complex.

After a quick trip to his office, where he’ll spend the next 90 minutes getting ready for an 8 a.m. staff meeting, Bowen sets his keys down and heads for the kitchen. Being the first one into the office has its perks — peace and quiet and time to think chief among them — but it also means you’re the one who puts on the coffee.

With his first cup of Joe in hand, Bowen heads back to his office to queue up some film.

The first feature in his college football Netflix folder highlights one of Baylor’s most dangerous offensive formations and Bowen watches how five other teams attempted to defend it as he scribbles notes and occasionally scratches his head. The Baylor game — 3 p.m.

Saturday in Waco, Texas — is still 10 days away on this morning but Bowen already knows he’ll need every bit of those 10 days to get ready for the unrelenting Baylor offense.

It’s a team effort to come up with the best way to attack the most productive parts of BU’s offense, but Bowen spends these first 90 minutes alone with his thoughts. It’s one of the few times all day he gets to himself and he takes advantage of each tick.

“At the beginning, that was the toughest part,” Bowen says. “As just the D-coordinator, you know from 9-11:30 you’re gonna be in your own world doing your own thing and that doesn’t exist any more. It’s just non-stop.”

l 8:00 a.m.

Staff meeting By now, many of KU’s assistant coaches have been in their offices for close to an hour, but the gathering in Room 140A marks the first time they’re all together at once. Bowen sits at the head of the table and quickly runs through the agenda with Peyton Manning-like precision.

First is the injury update from assistant athletic director for sports medicine Murphy Grant.

So and so is fine. So and so needs more time. So and so just thinks he’s hurt. After that, Bowen reveals which players had academic issues this week — bad grades, late to class, skipped tutoring — and explains to each position coach what he needs to do about it.

It involves a lot of running and something that sounds an awful lot like high school detention.

Next is the practice schedule, and Bowen asks for something a little different for the team meeting that kicks off the afternoon session.

“Let’s try to find things that can juice that meeting up,” he says. “Because this bye week, you can kind of see it’s getting to them.”

The whole staff meeting lasts about 15 minutes.

After a quick trip back to his office, Bowen and the defensive coaches head to the dungeon, where they spend the next two hours dissecting practice film and game-planning for Baylor.

KANSAS INTERIM HEAD FOOTBALL COACH CLINT BOWEN sits at his desk studying Baylor game film shortly after 7 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 22. l 8:39 a.m.

Defense wins This is where Bowen reverts to the old days and functions primarily as the Jayhawks’ defensive coordinator. He’s joined by defensive backs coaches Dave Campo and Scott Vestal and defensive line coach Buddy Wyatt, along with support staffers Mo Crum, Ty Greenwood and Kaeman Mitchell. Together, they go over a few of Baylor’s offensive formations looking for trends and weaknesses they can attack.

Bowen leads the discussion, but the assistants are free to chime in at any time, with any ideas, and they do. Bowen carries himself with a mixture of confidence and concession during the meeting.

He asks a lot of questions, but not in a quizzical manner that suggests he’s trying to show who’s in charge. Instead in an attempt to find the best solution. Sometimes it works. Other times, 12 minutes spent watching one trend play out to their delight is blown to bits by a single play that goes against the grain.

“And there it is,” Bowen yells at the screen hanging from the ceiling.

“Thanks a lot Art.” Art, of course, is Baylor coach Art Briles. And while Bowen sounds courteous in that he’s using good manners, he’s anything but pleased.

Back to the drawing board.

The whole process is very meticulous, almost like putting together a puzzle or playing a guessing game. How many times can they call this?

How many times can they call that? What are their averages? What can we do against those?

Bowen rattles off such inquiries pretty quickly and matter-of-factly without stopping the flow of film review. Actually finding answers is something that takes much longer.

Throughout the process, Bowen mixes smiles and laughter with anguish. You can hear the frustration build in his voice from time to time, both toward what he’s seeing on film and what the KU coaches around him are doing or saying.

BOWEN WIPES HIS FACE after watching a recurring problem from the previous day’s practice film.

He also can turn serious quickly if what he’s watching isn’t right.

“I know. I know,” he says to one assistant who is in the middle of trying to explain why a KU defensive back’s drop was so deep. “Tell him that.

This is like the 10th time in a row he did it that way. At some point during practice, tell him.”

Bowen, who has eight years of experience as a defensive coordinator, also makes no attempt to hide his disagreements.

“We ain’t doing that,” he said to one suggestion.

“We’ll think of something different.”

l 10:12 a.m.

Let’s compare notes A big part of being a head coach is delegating responsibilities, and Bowen seems to get that.

His staff constantly provides input — in both formal and informal settings — and it’s Bowen’s job to take it in and decide what they’ll tell the players and what the coaching staff will save for its own knowledge and game day.

There’s a fine line there.

As the assistants offer up thoughts on any particular topic, you can see Bowen think with his eyes. He’s listening at all times, taking in information and processing it at an alarming rate.

The rapid pace to all this seems to come from sitting in the position of the team that’s desperate to figure out something that might work — something different, something Baylor hasn’t seen that could give KU an advantage, even for just one play or against one formation.

After everything’s on the table, Bowen identifies the “high alert” pieces of information and then steps to the board to make sense of it all.

There’s a lot of trial and error going on here.

Let’s try it this way. Erase.

Let’s say we did it this way. Redraw. Try again.

On and on.

“If we play it like that and they do this, what’s our answer,” Bowen asks, a question directed as much at himself as the others in the room.

You can actually feel the air in the room lighten when an answer is found and satisfaction, relief

“That’s it, we got it,” Bowen says. “That’s our answer.”

That’s not the end, though. Far from it. They say a carpenter always measures twice and cuts once. It’s the same concept here.

up, Bowen knows who’s talking, exactly what he’s working on and exactly what he wants him to do.

“That’s great, Kaeman, thanks,” Bowen says with his right hand and eyes still scripting plays on the notepad in front of him.

“Load them onto Buddy’s iPad.”

l 10:59 a.m.

Controlled chaos Bowen returns to his office and has 45 minutes to script plays for the afternoon practice, which is set to begin at 4:15 p.m. But Bowen actually spends only about 19 minutes on that task. The rest of the time he entertains four unexpected visitors in a 20-minute span.

Offensive coordinator John Reagan stops by to ask what offenses the defense would like to work against at practice. In and out in four minutes. Running backs coach Reggie Mitchell checks in to talk about an upcoming recruiting trip. In and out in six minutes. Football administrator George Matsakis asks for a five-minute closed-door meeting with Bowen that followed perhaps the most impressive moment of the morning. As graduate assistant Kaeman Mitchell pokes his head into the office to tell Bowen he’s finished with the cut-ups he had been asked to isolate, Bowen answers him without lifting his head or his pencil, which he uses a lot because it has an eraser. Without looking

l 11:55 a.m.

A little me time After putting the final touches on the script for practice — or at least getting close enough — Bowen mutters to himself, ‘Let’s get out of this place for a while,’ and steps into the coach’s private quarters to change.

He emerges wearing black KU shorts with a blue stripe down the sides and a long-sleeved gray workout shirt. With his ear buds in one hand and his iPod in the other, Bowen heads to the basement to get a workout.

With Wyatt on a stairclimber to his left and quarterbacks coach Ron Powlus on the treadmill to his right, Bowen hops onto another treadmill and begins his hour-long routine that he says is important for mind, body and soul, but one far less demanding than what strength coach Scott Holsopple puts the team through on a daily basis.

“I’m not doing much these days,” he jokes.

After the workout, Bowen grabs a quick bite to eat and returns to his office to prep for a busy afternoon.

BOWEN DRAWS UP a defensive scenario at his desk in preparation for afternoon practice.

l 2:14 p.m.

Back to the dungeon With the team meeting — his first true interaction with his players for the day — coming up quickly, it’s back to the dungeon to hash out a lunch-hour revelation for one of the bigger focal points of the defensive game plan.

It could just be a burst of energy from the workout and refueling or it could be the rush of stumbling onto something that might actually work. Either way, the excitement in the room is palpable and Bowen and his assistants are bouncing around the dungeon like seventh-graders on the first day of school.

Bowen loves X’s and O’s.

Always has. But doing it as the head coach, with the fate of the entire team at stake, has elevated the infatuation to a new level.

“It’s different in that you get a lot more things coming across your desk that you maybe didn’t anticipate,” Bowen says.

“But the good part of it is you get to be a part of the whole team and that part’s a lot of fun. There are kids and coaches I wouldn’t usually have a relationship with that now are coming to you every day.”

Has his short time as interim head coach given him a true feel for what the job of head coach is all about?

“I think so,” he says.

with some issues. We’ve had to put the same plans together. We got thrown into it in a hurry. It’s Monday (Sept. 29) and you play a game on Saturday (Oct. 4) and they’re asking you what do you want to eat for pre-game meal and where do you want guys to sit on the plane and all these other things.”

l 2:42 p.m.

Team meeting, Mrkonic Auditorium Bowen kicks things off three minutes early and most, if not all, of the Jayhawks have been in their seats for several minutes. As you walk in, you hear and see the replay of KU’s 34-21 loss at Texas Tech playing on both drop-down screens at the front of the room, complete with the TV broadcast blaring.

“All right, gentlemen, good afternoon,” Bowen bellows. All eyes are on the head coach.

Just as he did with his staff nearly seven hours earlier, Bowen begins with the academic update, calling out the guys who missed class or were late to tutoring and tossing out a friendly reminder to everyone listening.

“At some point in time you have to grow up and figure out how to take care of your business,” he says with the tone of someone speaking from experience. “Some of you are struggling with that.

It’s not that hard, men.

Those are the little things that add up to us losing football games.”

Less than five minutes later, the meeting is adjourned and several Jayhawks scatter to their respective position meeting rooms while the punt return and kickoff return units stay put to listen to special teams coach Louie Matsakis breakdown the plan for Baylor.

Bowen stays for this, too, and interjects from the front row whenever he’s inspired.

“The punter’s good, Derrick Neal,” he says to his freshman kick returner.

“What’s up, Greg,” he adds in the direction of sophomore Greg Allen, who just learned he may get a shot at returning kicks on Saturday. “Don’t fumble the ball, OK. I personally nominated you for that spot.” l 3:02 p.m.

Defensive meeting, Mrkonic Auditorium With the bulk of the defense assembled in front of him, Bowen gives out detailed instructions and assignments for Baylor that they’ll be focusing on at the day’s practice.

It sounds somewhat like a foreign language but everyone seems to be following along.

Vestal, Campo and Wyatt add in their thoughts for emphasis and it’s common for more than one coach to talk at a time, although never to the same player or position.

All of the film clips shown here are what the coaches watched in the morning and, by now, Bowen has seen each of them at least a dozen times.

He mixes praise and criticism and asks a lot of questions. “What do we have here? What are we looking at? What does this mean? What does that mean?”

After 20 minutes, the players are dismissed and Bowen heads to the linebacker room. l 3:25 p.m.

Linebacker meeting With fewer than a dozen players in this meeting, Bowen is able to pick up the pace. This is his group. He’s been with these guys since the spring and their comfort and familiarity is evident.

The group has all kinds

KANSAS UNIVERSITY INTERIM FOOTBALL COACH CLINT BOWEN laughs with senior defensive captain Ben Heeney as Heeney leads the team in stretching at the beginning of practice Wednesday, Oct. 22, at Memorial Stadium. of rules and codes that they adhere to and they range from catchy sayings about route concepts and run fits — “Something goes out, something comes in,” Bowen says as he quickly scratches X’s and O’s on the board — to the strictly enforced rule that any newcomer has to tell the room a joke to gain access to the inner circle.

It’s here where it really hits home that Bowen is the same person no matter the size of the room or who’s in it — same tone, same demeanor, same patience, same confidence, same control. The only place this remotely changes is on the field, and that’s only because practice is where he releases all of the intensity and energy that builds within him throughout the day.

l 4:09 p.m.

The walk to practice With the day’s preparations now behind him, Bowen makes his way from his office down to the locker room to meet up with the team prior to practice. He slaps on a blue Kansas visor, slips his whistle over his head and around his neck and tosses his phone onto his desk. Won’t need that for a few hours.

As he gets to the locker room, he instantly becomes one of the most popular Jayhawks in it.

Several players light up when they see him, others explode with the joy normally reserved for a visit from a favorite uncle. And still more engage Bowen in some rough-housing.

He’s got a quick jab to the chest for one guy and a playful head-lock for another, but he never breaks stride. By 4:10 he’s outside near the bronze Jayhawk and by 4:12 he shouts, “All right, men. Here we go.”

Together, the team hits the field, three minutes ahead of schedule. l 4:15 p.m.

Practice begins If you didn’t know any better, you might think Bowen was leading the team onto the field for a game. The focus is razorsharp and the intensity is way up. That may seem like a small detail, but it carries over into the first part of practice and pretty much sets the bar that the Jayhawks stay above the entire time.

First up is the fastpaced walk-through, which essentially sets the tone for the next two hours. Next a light stretch followed by some special teams work and then fullon team drills.

After some red zone one-on-ones between the defensive backs and wide

receivers, it’s on to blitz packages and then sevenon-seven defense, which gives KU’s linebackers and defensive backs a true feel for what they’ll be up against in Waco.

The last 30 plays of practice are run against the scout teams and the final horn sounds at 5:49

l 6:06 p.m.

Post-practice review After practice, there’s more film to break down and, in a sense, the whole day starts over again. If it weren’t for the windows that line Bowen’s office and the east side of the building, it would be easy to lose track of time the way people do inside a Las Vegas casino.

Gamblers fill both venues, with money-seekers in the latter and coaches hoping to find a magic formula with which to attack Baylor in the former.

Back in the dungeon, Bowen and his staff look to see if the tweaks they put in during the morning were executed to their liking in the afternoon.

That’s followed by early installation of the thirddown game plan for Baylor. Think of this as exactly the same thing they did for two hours Wednesday morning only with an entirely different set of problems. l 7:57 p.m.

Study Hall check After clicking through the final film clip of the day, Bowen makes his way over to team study hall, where a couple dozen players work on academics. Some are writing papers, others preparing for tests and still more trying to get ahead a little so they can spend even more time and energy on football.

The number of Jayhawks in the room fluctuates depending upon performance in the classroom and Bowen almost always checks in for at least a few minutes. His reason for that, even though there are plenty of other things he could do with the time, is consistent with the whole philosophy he’s operated with since taking over.

It’s the same reason he gives when asked why he often runs sprints with his players at the end of practice.

“We’re all in this together,” he says. l 9:30 p.m.

Time to head home Just before 9:30 p.m., Bowen decides he’s done enough for the day. All that’s left now is the 10mile drive to his rural home on the far west edge of town.

It’s funny, but coaching football seems to be one

BOWEN AND PLAYERS RONNIE DAVIS (23), Devon Williams (71) and Damon Martin leave the locker room for practice. of the few professions where days just fly by and Wednesday certainly did for Bowen. Maybe it’s the helpless feeling of never having enough hours to get fully prepared. Of course, it also could be the enjoyment he gets out of every aspect of the grind, good days and bad.

“A lot of things come at you in a hurry,” he says.

“And the most challenging part has been keeping up with the defensive responsibilities on top of all the other things. What it’s turned into is I just get here a little bit earlier and stay a little bit later. And I try to make sure that by the time I go home at night, I pretty much have everything big for the next day done so when something unexpected comes up I’m ready.”

By the time he puts his white Toyota 4Runner in park outside of his front door and heads in to say good day and good night to his sons Baylor and Banks and wife, Kristie, Bowen has put in a 15hour work day in which he wore half a dozen hats and did everything from make coffee to swap out personnel on the depth chart and watch Baylor film until the images were burned into his eyes. It’s really not that much different than the work he had been doing as the team’s defensive coordinator, but the scope has expanded and there’s more at stake, both today and for his future.

When he accepted the interim tag, Bowen said being the head coach at KU was his dream job.

Four weeks and a couple dozen 15-hour days into it, he still holds onto that belief.

“Oh, absolutely,” he said. “This is a special place. I’ve seen it at its lowest points and I’ve seen it at its highest points. And I truly believe it deserves to be at those highest points more than we’ve been there.”

THE SCOUTING REPORT FOR BAYLOR sits atop Bowen’s desk on Wednesday.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SENIOR Chelsea Albers makes a return against Texas Tech on Saturday at Horejsi Center.

KU volleyball sweeps Tech to reach .500 in Big 12

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

A popular senior starter and returning All-Big 12 volleyball player, Chelsea Albers was mobbed by adoring grade school fans in the interview line after blasting a matchhigh 10 kills in Kansas University’s 3-0 rout of Texas Tech on Saturday in Horejsi Center.

“I know some little girls.

They love her long hair.

I’m like, ‘I guess you can be the favorite player, but it’s (because of) your hair,” fellow senior Sara McClinton theorized recently regarding the popularity of Albers, a 6-1 hitter from Papillion, Nebraska.

McClinton, who had six kills in the 25-14, 2519, 25-20 decision, is well aware Albers brings more than her golden locks to the home court.

“Chelsea is super competitive. She wants to win,” McClinton, a human biology major from Omaha, Nebraska, said of Albers, an exercise science major who ranks in the top 10 in the Big 12 in kills and points per set. Albers is also third on KU’s team in digs and fourth in blocks.

“She serves. She passes. She hits. She’s a great blocker, too,” freshman

Kelsie Payne said of Albers, who had 10 digs and seven block assists on a day KU (16-6, 4-4) outblocked (15-5, 3-5) Tech, 13.5 to 2.5.

“That is something I’ve focused on awhile,” Albers said of her blocking after helping hold Breeann David to eight kills.

“It gets frustrating if it (blocking game) is not on. Once it’s on, it gets the ball rolling. I do enjoy that,” Albers added.

“I love volleyball, so every part of it I take pride in. I work hard to make my game more well-rounded. I hope to give more to my teammates than I take.”

KU, which served well on Saturday, committing just four errors, obviously blocked well. Tayler Soucie (four kills) had eight block assists and Payne five. Payne had seven kills.

KU has won four of its last five matches and is two games behind Kansas State and Oklahoma (62). Texas is 7-1.

“That’s not a terrible start. I think we can have a better (second) half of the conference,” Albers said.

“I think that’s what we’re planning on doing, but as of now we’re in a good position to still do well in the conference and that’s what we are focused on.”

Seabury v-ball finishes season

Free State High’s boys soccer team beat Lawrence High a few weeks

ago, but the next City Showdown will have much higher stakes.

The Firebirds (8-7-1) earned a No. 9 seed in the Class 6A Northeast regional, and will go on the road to face the eighthseeded Lions (8-6-2) at 6:30 p.m. on Monday at LHS in the first round of regionals.

The winner of the City Showdown rematch will face top-seeded Olathe East (15-1) at 7 p.m. on Thursday at the CBAC in Olathe to advance to the state quarterfinals.

Meanwhile, Ottawa High (13-2-1) and Tonganoxie (12-3-1) earned the top seeds in their respective regions in Class 4-1A, while Baldwin (12-2-2) picked up the No. 2 seed in the 4-1A East region, and De Soto (10-4-2) is the No. 3 seed in the Northeast region.

really needed that on beam, definitely.”

Johnson, who took ninth all-around, had her teammates jumping up and down throughout her routines, as she perfected her new and more difficult skills.

“I was focused and determined to have the best meet I could for myself as a senior and for the team, as all of us are mainly seniors,” Johnson said. “I scored better on beam so that was a relief, but once I got my giants, that was the first time that I’ve (done) it in my high school career, so ending with giants was a phenomenal feeling.”

As the Firebirds noticed they had a lead heading into the floor routine — their last event — they knew a state title was in their grasp with solid routines. Johnson turned in a score of 8.75,

which Howland topped with a 9.075 (tying for sixth place), before Bartle highlighted her day with a score of 9.45 to win her second state title in a row in the floor exercise.

“I’m really, really happy with how I did on vault, bars and floor,” said Bartle, who also took fifth all-around. “Beam I’m not too happy about but it’s beam, it’s OK. I’m so happy about floor because that’s my event, and after I came off, I was just in tears. It was really cool ending on it.”

The three seniors — Bartle, Howland and Johnson — all had plenty of highlights throughout the meet, and were happy to end their high school careers on the highest note that they could.

How much have the seniors meant to the Free State gymnastics program?

“You’re going to make me cry. I haven’t cried yet all day,” FSHS and Lawrence High coach Brooke Kissinger said. “They know how to get it done and they know how to make the team motivated and they know how to hit solid routines. This was awesome.”

Lawrence didn’t qualify as a team, but junior Ashley Ammann highlighted the Lions’ day by taking eighth place in the floor exercise. Sophomore Jordyn Leon also added a top20 finish on the bars and senior Heather Wisbey tied for 30th on the beam.

“Ashley did so well on the floor, and Jordyn added a new skill to her bar routine,” Kissinger said. “It was awesome, everybody was able to hit their skills they’ve been practicing these last two weeks. I was really satisfied with Lawrence High and Free State.”

FSHS runners win regionals

Seabury football cruises, 68-12

Shawnee — Free State cross country runners Emily Venters and Ryan Liston followed up their individual Sunflower League titles by winning their respective races Saturday at the 6A regional championship meet hosted at Shawnee Mission Park.

The Firebird standouts helped Free State to sweep the regional championship, which in turn qualified the FSHS boys and girls teams for the state meet Friday at Rim Rock Farm.

The Lawrence High boys and girls squads placed sixth and seventh.

LHS junior Nathan Pederson qualified for the state meet by finishing in the first five individuals who were not members of state qualifying teams.

The Bishop Seabury Academy football team scored 36 points in the second quarter en route to blowing out Wentworth Military Academy, 68-12, Saturday at BSA. Seahawks quarterback Max Easter wreaked havoc on the Wentworth defense with by his arm and legs, accounting for 234 yards of total offense and six touchdowns.

Harley Holub added two touchdowns.

in practice. It paid off, as sophomore Callie Hicks and Bartle turned in topfive scores in the vault, and everybody had solid routines on the uneven bars, highlighted by Hicks scoring a 9.02 to finish in fourth place.

Then, Johnson helped her teammates out by turning in a sixth-place score of 9.075 on the balance beam, which was especially appreciated after Howland and Bartle fell from the beam.

“Haley really surprised me,” Bartle said.

“She had a stellar meet, honestly. She did her giants (on the bars) and that was probably one of the best parts of the meet. She put up the best beam score ever, like we

No. 5 Auburn 42, South Carolina 35 Auburn, Ala. — Nick Marshall ran for three touchdowns and passed for a score and No. 5 Auburn survived a scare from the South Carolina after Steve Spurrier made a succession of gambles that paid off.

Auburn burned off four-plus minutes from the clock after the first unsuccessful gamble before the Gamecocks (4-4, 2-4) made a stop at midfield for one more shot.

Foxy By Proxy burlesque troupe pulls together to stage annual Halloween Hextravaganza

By Joanna Hlavacek • Twitter: @hlavacekjoanna

F

oxy By Proxy is a family, its members say — a kooky, demented clan of “weirdos.”

Gathered around the fireplace at Frank’s North Star Tavern, the Lawrencebased burlesque troupe’s de facto headquarters, five of the group’s 16 members are discussing costumes for their upcoming Halloween Hextravaganza.

It all looks a bit like the strangest family portrait ever taken.

On this crisp fall afternoon, only half of the quintet is dressed in stage getups, but as is often the case with Foxy By Proxy, the lines are

a bit blurred.

Christopher Muetz, 22, is the group’s sole male dancer. He’s wearing a pair of burnt-orange pants, a white doubled-breasted sportcoat, high-heeled oxfords and a wide-brimmed straw hat, all enhanced by a face covered in makeup.

He blends right in with his friend Jen Young — a purple vision in an “I Dream of Jeannie” costume — but he says his look is just “today’s outfit.”

Despite his colorful appearance, Muetz says he’s more of a quiet type. On stage, though, he’s Donny Dapper, a play on the suave,

elegant Don Draper from “Mad Men.” His acts, which feature hula-hooping and body manipulation, are an opportunity for him to shed his everyday persona and become someone else.

“I’m not generally a very adventurous person, so I go out of my way to force myself out of my comfort zone,” says Muetz, a hotel concierge by day. “I found that being on stage has really helped my confidence. I fell in love with performing.”

Like Muetz, 23-year-old Maddy Roger also needed a bit of a nudge before taking the plunge into the sequined, salacious world of Foxy By

It came from her longtime friend Taylor Stephens, and it was more like a shove, the pair recalls.

“I literally made her audition,” says Stephens, a 23-year-old massage therapist.

“I said, ‘Maddy, I just joined this group, and you’re gonna audition, and you’re gonna sing this song and you’re gonna dance to it and you’re gonna wear this costume, and this is when you’re going to

Roger may have protested at first, but Stephens, also known as “Frenchy Fondelle,” promptly told her to “shut up and do it.”

Luckily for the both of them, she did. The “best buddies” attended dance classes together as kids — ballet, jazz modern. Ten years later, and they’re still dancing together.

Roger’s great-grandmother gave her the nickname as a kid. She passed away long before Roger joined the troupe, and never got to see her great-granddaughter perform burlesque on stage.

But Roger still has a “superfan” in the family.

“My mom comes to every show. She brings signs. She even cries,” Roger says. “She’s my cheerleader.”

LIBERTY HOLLIS APPLIES LATEX AND PAINT TO A MASK TO BE USED IN Foxy by Proxy’s upcoming Halloween Hextravaganza show, which will be at 9 p.m. Friday at Liberty Hall.

Stripping isn’t everything Unlike exotic dancers at strip clubs, burlesque performers often integrate vaudeville elements like comedy, singing, elaborate costumes and choreographed group numbers.

Foxy By Proxy differs from traditional burlesque, namely because half of its members don’t even strip on stage.

“It’s not really the main focus,” says 35-year-old Liberty Hollis, a stay-at-home mom who operates a scrap yard with her husband when she’s not on stage as “Honey Caprice” or creating elaborate outfits for Foxy’s shows. “The removal is there and the seduction aspect is there, but it isn’t everything.”

Those who still turn up their noses at the genre probably don’t fully understand it, Young says.

“I’ve had a couple of family members and old friends of mine from back home say things like, ‘How can you be stripping on stage and still consider yourself devoted to your husband and focused on your family?’” Young says. “But to me, what we do is just as much a form of artistic expression as painting a picture or making a sculpture.”

For the most part, though, Young feels the Lawrence community has embraced Foxy By Proxy and its unorthodox take on burlesque.

Halloween Hextravaganza With its annual Halloween show less than a week away, the group is busy putting the final touches on the holiday spectacular, which will feature plenty of Foxy’s signature satire.

Watch out for Illuminati symbolism, “satanic stuff,” Tim Burton influences, a one-eyed monster and ’70s horror movie soundtracks. An ordained minister (still not a “real” reverend, Young says) will preach throughout the show.

The last month or so has been crunch time for Foxy By Proxy. Weekly meetings, twice-a-week

A Halloween comedy tradition on the big screen

T

he ongoing Film Church series at Liberty Hall rolls on this month with three screenings today of Mel Brooksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comedy classic â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankenstein,â&#x20AC;? a movie that brings a personal Halloween tradition for Maggie Allen, cinema and video store manager, into the public, albeit five days early.

No matter where she is or whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on that night, Allen watches â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? on Halloween every year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One year my former roommate and I had a Halloween party at our house. As the party dragged on into the wee hours of the morning, I realized if I wanted to get my viewing in, I was just going to have to put it on and watch it with a house full of revelers,â&#x20AC;? Allen says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The movie wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on for more than 15 minutes when I noticed that the entire party had gathered around to watch. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a powerful film.â&#x20AC;?

1974 was a banner year for Mel Brooks. He released â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? 40 years ago in December, and it was hot on the heels of the unexpected success of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blazing Saddles,â&#x20AC;? which was released that February. Audiences lined up around the block to watch he and Gene Wilderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pitch-perfect parody of the beloved James Whaledirected Universal classics â&#x20AC;&#x153;Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bride of Frankenstein.â&#x20AC;?

The movie is unusual in that Brooks didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t write the original screenplay. Wilder came to the writer/director during the shooting of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blazing Saddlesâ&#x20AC;? with a script heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been working on, and before long, the two were working together on rewrites. The project

SCENE STEALERS

ERIC MELIN

eric@scene-stealers.com moved from Columbia to 20th Century Fox because the new studio not only agreed to a higher budget but also Brooksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; demand that the film be shot in black and white. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure the film would still be funny in color, but it would lose that moody, romantic, classic, gothic charm that makes it so enduring,â&#x20AC;?

Allen says.

In addition to the evocative cinematography, the set pieces and props from Whaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original films were found by Brooks and used in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? to give it an authen-

tic feel. Of course, Cloris Leachmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creepy turn as the mysterious Frau BlĂźcher (horse whinny) sells the joke even further, at once recalling the foreboding characters of classic horror while being downright hilarious at the same time.

The uninitiated may be surprised to find that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? is also kid-friendly. If children donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand all the nods to the 1930s films, there are plenty of Brooksstyle gags and fourth-wallbreaking winks to the audience, notably from Marty Feldmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Igor. It also contains what may be Wilderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best performance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only is [Wilder] funny, but he is romantic, sexy, tender, crazed, powerful and poetic,â&#x20AC;?

Allen says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even when the story calls for a melodrama â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as it would in staying true to the genre â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he executes it with precision and control.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Frankensteinâ&#x20AC;? is showing at 4 p.m. 7 p.m., and 9:30 p.m. today at Liberty Hall. It is 106 minutes and is rated PG for adult language, adult content and mild violence.

a low-key gathering with friends and family reflecting their continued love for the longtime companions, turns out to be a catalyst for some life-changing challenges.

Co-writer and director Ira Sachs employs an interesting strategy, delivering everyday moments that play like vivid snapshots in time, and letting the audience fill in the blanks between.

It allows him to paint a broader picture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; without using flashbacks â&#x20AC;&#x201D; of the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history and life together. It also gives the film a very lived-in quality that dovetails nicely with the well-rounded performances of old pros Lithgow and Molina. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love is Strangeâ&#x20AC;? has plenty of conflict, but it seems virtually free from the demands of traditional plot-heavy films. It carries the ring of truth at least partially because its subtext is everything, and its scenes are rarely about what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really about.

The relationships between all of the supporting characters (including Marisa Tomei and Charlie Tahan) are sometimes prickly, even as great love and respect shine through.

Sachs shows that great drama and powerful storytelling can exist in the most quiet moments, free from shouting and other kinds of histrionics.

Running time: 100 minutes. Rated R for language (which is tremendously short-sighted, considering the positivity and family values that the film displays).

King Lear: TV pioneer pens memoir

By Frazier Moore Associated Press

New York — From the moment Norman Lear began writing his memoir, he knew what the first line would be: “When I was a boy I thought that if I could turn a screw in my father’s head just a sixteenth of an inch one way or the other, it might help him to tell the difference between right and wrong.”

Lear’s father Herman — by turns flamboyant, loutish, charming and downright criminal, and an inspiration for his tragicomic hero, Archie Bunker — occupies an overarching presence in Lear’s “Even THIS I Get to Experience” (Penguin Press).

The 92-year-old Lear, still full of pep and new projects, reigns as a filmmaker, humorist, impresario, activist, TV pioneer and, of course, unrivaled sitcom titan with a portfolio of hits in the 1970s and ’80s that included “Sanford and Son,” “Maude,” “Good Times,” “The Jeffersons,” ‘’One Day at a Time” and the show that started it all, “All in the Family,” whose patriarch would make famous Herman Lear’s own habitual demand that his wife “stifle it.”

“I wanted to run as far as I could from anything he stood for,” says Lear, his voice choking as he recalled life with his father in Connecticut and Brooklyn during a recent interview. “But at the same time, I wished to make him everything I wanted him to be. My favorite way of thinking about him was as a rascal, and not — I have a hard time saying it even now — as a thief.”

The book became a reckoning for Lear. But it is no dirge. This is an entertaining, penetrating celebration of a richly lived life, as well as a show-biz

AP File Photo

IN THIS SEPT. 18, 1978, FILE PHOTO, actors Jean Stapleton, seated left, and Carroll O’Connor, seated right, hold their Emmys as they pose with Rob Reiner, standing from left, who won an Emmy for supporting actor in the same series, show producer Norman Lear and executive producer Mort Lachman. Lear has released a new memoir, “Even This I Get To Experience.” chronicle kicking off in the late 1940s when Lear, after being fired as a press agent pitching publicity items to such gossip columnists as Dorothy Kilgallen and Walter Winchell, landed a writing job on NBC’s “Ford Star Revue,” one of TV’s original variety shows.

“It was so early in the (TV) game that after a couple of weeks we were considered veterans,” laughs Lear, speaking of himself and his partner at the time. “We had cachet.”

Jobs followed with such ’50s TV headliners as Martha Raye, George Gobel and Tennessee Ernie Ford,

not to mention the superstar team of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.

By the 1960s, Lear had moved into writing films including the Frank Sinatra comedy “Come Blow Your Horn” and “Divorce

American Style,” starring Dick Van Dyke, both directed by his production partner Bud Yorkin.

In 1971, the duo’s TV ascension began with “All in the Family,” adapted for CBS from a British sitcom about a blue-collar bigot locking horns with his liberal son.

Why did Lear choose such a show to retrofit for U.S. viewers?

“Because it related to me,” he declares.

“My father would call me the laziest white kid he ever met.

Then he would say I was ‘a meathead — dead from the neck up.’

That was his expression.”

Thus was Lear able to craft a TV version of his own upbringing through the characters of Archie Bunker and son-in-law Mike (“Meathead”) Stivic.

With that explosive success, Lear soared as a champion of TV diversity (“Good Times,” “Sanford and Son” and “The Jeffersons” had predominantly or completely AfricanAmerican casts) while confronting cutting-edge social issues that ranged from war, sexuality and abortion to poverty and how a toilet-paper roll should be placed in its bathroom holder (over-

hand or underhand?).

In 1981, Lear turned activist for real by founding People for the American Way, whose mission statement speaks of respecting diversity and combating bigotry.

But Lear insists he didn’t launch his comedies to change the world, nor was there any master plan behind the empire he and Yorkin built.

“We were just really having a good time,” he says.

They were breaking new ground in authenticity (an early episode of “All in the Family” found Archie’s wife Edith facing menopause) while battling the network over things as picayunish as the sound of a toilet flushing off-screen.

Meanwhile, they were tangling with the talent, notably Carroll O’Connor, who played Archie and contested nearly every line of dialogue they wrote for him.

“My God, that was difficult!” says Lear. “But it ended up every (darn) week with 240 people in the studio audience roaring with laughter. How do you NOT have a good time with THAT?”

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION

By Lucas Wetzel

Sony Pictures Home Entertainment/Contributed Photo

JAZZ MUSICIANS AND DJS ARE CELEBRATING the 30th anniversary of “Ghostbusters” with a Ghostbusters Ball at 9 p.m. Oct. 31 at the Guild, at 1621 Locust in the East Crossroads.

Fun happenings on tap for Halloween

H

alloween is on a Friday this year, something that hasn’t happened since 2008 and 2003 — years in which I threw parties where my guests and I consumed cigarettes, pumpkin ales and peanut butter cups until we probably looked like prematurely rotted jacko’-lanterns.

I’m a more relaxed, health-conscious family man these days, so this column will include a mix of family events as well as a few slightly more debaucherous options.

The Kansas City Symphony is presenting two spooky and sensuous events this week, including a Wednesday night screening of F.W. Murnau’s classic 1922 horror film “Nosferatu” accompanied by organist Dorothy Papadakos.

Tickets are $20 for student seats and $35 and up for adult tickets.

At 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, the Symphony will present “Mysterioso: A Magical Night,” a musical variety show featuring magic, illusions and comedy acts as well as themes from classic television shows and films.

Tickets are $40 and up at kcsymphony.org.

On Friday at the Broadway Jazz Club, the stylish, ukulelestrumming duo Victor & Penny will perform an evening set of prohibition-era jazz and pop tunes along with Kyle Reid and the Low-Swinging Chariots. Costumes are encouraged for this jazz-age Halloween Extravaganza. Reservations can be made at thebroadwayjazzclub.com.

With the 1931 Art Deco Power & Light building rumored to be the inspiration for the climactic scene in the 1984 movie “Ghostbusters,” Kansas Citians have long had an affinity for the cheesy science/fantasy flick. On Halloween Night, some local jazz musicians and DJs are celebrating the film’s 30th anniversary with a “Ghostbusters Ball” at the Guild, an impressive private event space at 1621 Locust in the East Crossroads. The event starts at 9 p.m. and costs $10.

Little ones can enjoy haunting one of Kansas City’s other iconic buildings from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Friday, when the Kansas City Museum at Corinthian Hall hosts a “Scare-It Halloween” (the neighborhood is named “Scarritt Renaissance”) featuring inflatables, a haunted house and other children’s activities. The recently restored Corinthian Hall is located at 3218 Gladstone, and more information about museum events can be found at kansascitymuseum.org.

This weekend is also the last chance to visit Worlds of Fun, which has plenty of Halloweenthemed activities during the daytime that are not too spooky for kids, including the HowlO-Scream Kids Zone, Trick-Or-Treat Tales and the Magical House on Boo Hill.

Worlds of Fun is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. today, 11 a.m. to midnight Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday. Check out worldsoffun.com for special ticket discounts.

The Kansas City Zoo

SUNDAY Prime Time WOW DTV DISH 7 PM

has discovered a creative way to bid a quick farewell to the Halloween season with its Great Pumpkin Smash, during which the larger animals will crush, kick, bounce and play with big orange pumpkins. The GPS is scheduled at intervals between 10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. Saturday.

From 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday, the restaurants along 14th Street in the Power & Light District will be throwing a Wicked Wine Walk, which includes wine and small plates, as well as music and artwork, at restaurants including The Bristol, Bar Louie, Kill Devil Club and Maker’s Mark Bourbon House & Lounge, among others. Tickets cost $30, with a portion of the proceedings going to benefit ArtsKC. If you’ve ever wanted to check out the restaurants in this area, this is a good way to experience a lot of them at once. Visit powerandlightdistrict. com to purchase tickets or VIP passes.

Saturday is also the Pitch Weekly’s annual Crafts and Drafts festival at the Uptown Shopping Center at 36th and Broadway, and will feature artwork and handmade goods from over 50 vendors, as well as food trucks and over 25 microbrews. The event is mostly indoors, and will be held rain or shine from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Boss takes advantage of man with disability Dear Annie: My husband’s half-brother is 59 and working as a custodian. “John” does not drink or smoke and can converse well, but has a learning disability and cannot read. He tried tutors, but made no progress. He did OK while his mother was alive, but she died, and then John’s wife died within the same year.

John has four adult children.

One has Down syndrome and lives in a group home.

One lives three hours away. The other two are nearby, but the youngest also has some difficulties and is childlike in his perception of the world.

John can be stubborn and will not take advice, even when he asks for it. Here is the problem: John and his youngest son both

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

work for a man who pays them minimum wage. He takes out Social Security taxes, but then does not pay the government, which then comes after John to pay his taxes, so he ends up paying twice.

When John needed a car to travel to various janitorial jobs, the boss began withholding $200 a month from his paycheck, which he claimed he would save so John could buy a better car.

Jane Austen mystery has little charm A television melodrama based on a book that’s based on another book, the “Masterpiece Mystery!” (8 p.m. Sunday, PBS, check local listings) presentation of “Death Comes to Pemberly” all but requires a working knowledge of Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice.” That should be no problem to fans of the opulent “British country house” genre of PBS specials.

But some may quibble with the notion of turning characters from one of literature’s most enduring romances into amateur detectives in a murder whodunit.

Based on a book of the same name by P.D. James, “Death” is set six years after the marriage of Elizabeth Bennet (Anna Maxwell Martin, “Bleak House”) and Mr. Darcy (Matthew Rhys, “The Americans”). As it begins, the vast Pemberly estate is in a tizzy, planning for a lavish ball, when tragedy strikes.

As readers of “Pride and Prejudice” know, Elizabeth’s flighty sister Lydia (Jenna Coleman, “Doctor Who”) married the cad George Wickham (Matthew Goode, “The Good Wife”). Or rather, he was paid to marry her after he had seduced her and run off with her. Wickham had earned the everlasting scorn of Darcy for previously seducing his sister, Georgiana (Eleanor Tomlinson), and has been banished from Pemberly.

Despite their uninvited status, Wickham and Lydia are on their way to Elizabeth’s swank ball when Wickham’s righthand man is murdered on the grounds of Pemberly. ‘‘Pride and Prejudice” does not lend itself seamlessly to the mystery genre. Homicide and attendant disgrace give Darcy even more reasons to resent Elizabeth and her family. Anna Maxwell Martin, who has always been cast as a plain Jane, may not be vivacious enough to pull off Elizabeth Bennet. In fact, she seems decidedly decaffeinated. That, combined with Darcy’s sour nature, makes for little chemistry.

Now we hear that the boss is selling John his own used car for double the book price at 18-percent interest.

John brought the written agreement to show my husband, but he’d already signed it.

I want to report this employer, but John is afraid he will lose his job. He has tried working with a lawyer to get disability, but fails to show up for appointments, partly because he cannot read his mail informing him when to be there. My husband has taken him to various agencies, but John doesn’t follow through.

What can I do? — Disgusted with the Situation in Iowa

to John about contacting Disability Rights Iowa (disabilityrightsiowa.org) to report the situation. Someone there can also help John deal with his fear of losing his job, which is part of the reason he doesn’t follow through. (For those in other states, contact the National Disability Rights Network at ndrn.org.) You may need to enlist the help of his children or even a caregiver to go through his mail, drive him to appointments and make sure he does whatever is necessary to rectify this situation.

For Sunday, Oct. 26: This year you will have the drive and energy to achieve your goals.

In some sense, you will be hard to stop once you decide to head down a certain path. You could become increasingly strong-willed in order to achieve what you want. If you are single, you could become involved in a relationship where you put this person on a pedestal. The problem is that he or she eventually will fall off of it.

If you are attached, the two of you need to demonstrate more giveand-take. If you do, you will enter a very romantic phase.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ You finally could choose to take action regarding a longstanding problem. Tonight: See past the obvious.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Spend time with a loved one. Tonight: Confusion marks your plans.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ Defer to others, as you will be flooded with ideas and suggestions. Tonight: All smiles.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ You might want to get some errands done. Tonight: Relax. Think “tomorrow.”

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++++ Others might become more serious or argumentative.

Tonight: Out late.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) +++ Tension builds on the homefront. Tonight: Allow in more fun and laughter.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ You are likely to see a situation differently after having an animated chat. Tonight: Chat over dinner.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) +++ Your possessive side might emerge when dealing with a neighbor or sibling. Tonight: Grab a treat on the way home.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ You could be more in touch with your feelings. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ Be more in touch with your needs. Tonight: Take a walk.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ Friends surround you, and you might be overwhelmed.

Tonight: Paint the town red.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ A friend could push your buttons while you attempt to handle key responsibilities.

Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

ON the COVER

ACTIVE LEARNING Lawrence High School students experience some hands-on learning and explore career opportunities on September 23 at the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Department Training Facility at 1941 Haskell Avenue. As part of their new Law, Public Safety and Security class, about 40 students from both Free State and Lawrence High Schools, under the direction of teachers Kim Grinnell (Free State) and Bob Conlon (LHS) and Fire Medical personnel, participated in several demonstration stations, practicing hands-only CPR and learning about technical rescue, extrication, hazardous materials detection, fire equipment and apparatus, patient packaging and Medical Unit orientation.

On the Cover (left photo): Lawrence High students Jared Roush, Cierra Hollins, Zach Sarmiento, Anthony Van Schmus, their teacher Bob Conlon, Carson Rhoades and Oliver Woods watch as Ivan Hollins participates in a water flow demonstration; (top right photo) two unidentified students experience wearing HazMat suits; and (bottom right photo) Devan Ryan, Danielle Walters, Alexis Boyd, Alissa Begay and Hannah Upton practice lifting Jordan Schoepf safely onto a stretcher. Special thanks to the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical personnel who coordinated and assisted with this student learning opportunity.

LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS EXTEND TEACHERS’ REACH

By Terry McEwen, director of assessment, research and instructional resources

WHAT IS A LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (LMS)?

A Learning Management System is an online, web-based system that ties together 21st century education with effective and creative uses of technology. An LMS does not REPLACE the teacher – it EXTENDS the teacher’s reach.

Technology by itself will not transform schools. Teacher-directed instruction integrated with the use of technology does have the power to transform student learning.

HOW DOES AN LMS WORK? The LMS provides an organized space for teachers to house components of learning. The system contains videos, lessons, assignments and even checks for understanding (quizzes, tests, etc.).

An LMS provides students with the ability to work ahead in class when and if they are ready to do so. They can access instructional information, see and work on assignments, extend their learning, and check their own understanding. In addition, these systems provide an opportunity for students who need more time with a concept to go back, review it, get more information or practice with it, or repeat something they need.

In short, an LMS supports a perfect partnership between students and their teachers. Teachers create learning opportunities that speak to each student, and students access the information at any time, day or night!

Basically, an LMS allows students to manage and “own” their learning.

04

WHAT ELSE CAN AN LMS DO? An LMS also provides checks for understanding in the form of quizzes, tests and written responses (short writings, essays, and research projects). Some quizzes allow students to see immediate results and, if they get something incorrect, see what the correct answer is and why.

Most LMS’s provide a grading center that enables teachers to review and grade assignments, giving students specific feedback. Students use the grade center to review that feedback and track their own progress. Use of the grade center in Lawrence Public Schools continues to expand.

WHAT CAN PARENTS GLEAN FROM AN LMS? Lawrence Public Schools encourage parents of students in blended learning classrooms to ask their students to demonstrate a course in the LMS. Parents will see assignments, lessons,

Lawrence Public Schools Newsletter

videos of instruction, and much more.

Students are excellent guides, and can give their parents a virtual tour.

In the near future, Lawrence Public Schools will begin to provide parents access to the LMS, where they may review their students’ courses, assignments and instruction. This will be similar to the current Skyward Family Access provided to parents.

WHAT ARE TEACHERS, STUDENTS AND PARENTS SAYING ABOUT USING AN LMS? The district regularly surveys teachers, students and parents.

Responses to the use of the LMS have generally been positive.

A second grade teacher said, “Each day, the students are eager to get started. I feel like I know my students better than ever before because I have more time to meet with each one of them individually.”

A fifth grade teacher said,

“They have their devices out, whether they are iPads or laptops, ready to go to work. There’s lots of collaboration going on!”

A high school teacher said, “My favorite is that there is no failure – everybody feels successful. Students are responsible for relearning if they need to, and they are taking on that responsibility.”

An eighth grade student said, “It is easier to work with the teacher. You can work at your own pace and learn how you want to learn to get things done.”

A fifth grade student said, “We can make a video. We can make a Word document. We can put up a discussion on the discussion board to let the teacher know how we know something.”

An elementary parent said, “My child comes home super excited, talking a mile a minute about the day.”

A high school parent said, “I am in an advanced degree program that uses an LMS. I see why it is so important for our students to understand this approach to learning!”

Lawrence Public Schools are excited to incorporate an LMS in blended learning classrooms and to expand its use to additional classrooms in the future. One might describe this combination as the best of two worlds: high quality instruction from a professional educator blended with an extension of learning opportunities through an Internet-based system.

The Lawrence school district sees this blend supporting ideal student preparation for college and careers.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;BEYOND DIVERSITYâ&#x20AC;? LAYS THE FOUNDATION FOR DISTRICT EQUITY WORK A major focus of the Lawrence Public Schoolsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work this year toward its Equity Goal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to raise the achievement of all students, while closing achievement gaps â&#x20AC;&#x201C; involves school board members, administrators, teachers, support staff, parents and community partners participating in Beyond Diversity training. This twoday seminar serves as the foundation to the Pacific Educational Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Courageous Conversations about Race programming, which the Lawrence school district began implementing in 2009. Participants describe Beyond Diversity as a powerful, personally transforming experience. The training is designed to equip participants to understand the impact of race on student achievement and the role that racism plays in institutionalized racial disparities.

Nearly 750 individuals have participated in Beyond Diversity training through the Lawrence Public Schools since the summer of 2009. The district completed two Beyond Diversity seminars earlier this school year and will offer five more from November-April. A group of administrators and teachers will attend, and some will lead workshops at, the National Summit for Courageous Conversations this month in New Orleans. In addition, the district continues to support two educators in completing PEGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s affiliate training.

Danica Moore, teacher on special assignment for equity, and Becky Reaver, a Liberty Memorial Central Middle School teacher, have completed online facilitator coursework through PEG. They currently co-facilitate trainings every other month and participate in evaluation and feedback sessions with PEG staff. Once they complete their affiliate training,

Moore and Reaver will facilitate future Beyond Diversity seminars for Lawrence Public Schools. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is one of the most adventurous trainings that has required me to go past my comfort zone and really internalize the (Courageous Conversation) protocol. I am honored to have been able to experience this opportunity to become an affiliate,â&#x20AC;?

Moore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The greatest benefit I feel personally, is I have learned how to facilitate instead of just present.

I understand how to rely on the protocol to have productive conversations that allow for those in the discussion to make connections and transformations on their own initiative,â&#x20AC;? Moore added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My strongest asset now is realizing I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to create a response to everything and everyone, but instead, I can ask reflective questions to keep others engaged and constantly reflecting on their beliefs, thoughts, feelings and actions. This is where real change begins.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;My journey and commitment to our equity work is strengthened immeasurably by the opportunity I have to collaborate with Danica Moore and by the voices of the 80+ people in the room every time we have a Beyond Diversity workshop,â&#x20AC;? said Becky Reaver, who also is training to become a PEG affiliate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am empowered by watching more of our educators, community members and young people seek out multiple perspectives and engage in Courageous Conversations about race, and I am grateful that I have the opportunity to further this work.â&#x20AC;?

STANDARDS PROMOTE FOCUS, COHERENCE AND RIGOR

By Sarah Oatsvall, assistant director of teaching and learning WHATâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S IN A STANDARD? Educational standards are the learning goals for what students should know and be able to do at each grade level. Educational standards help teachers ensure that students have the skills and knowledge they need to be successful, while also helping parents understand what is expected of their children.

The Kansas College and Career Ready Standards (KCCRS) encompass what is expected of students at each grade level in mathematics and English language arts. These standards are designed around three major shifts that promote focus, coherence and rigor.

path of skill development that increases each year by building upon the knowledge and skills gained in the previous year. This kind of coherence connects the learning from one grade to the next. Additionally, the KCCRS encourage the integration of content across content areas. For example, the KCCRS for English language arts ask students to read stories and literature, as well as more complex texts that provide facts, content and background knowledge in areas such as science and social studies. Finally, the KCCRS require a greater level of rigor by promoting critical thinking skills and the ability to articulate thinking and reasoning.

FOCUS, COHERENCE AND RIGOR The KCCRS demonstrate a linear

addition to content material. These standards promote inquiry, problembased learning and instruction as well as critical thinking skills at all grade levels. Analytical skills that are required for success in college, career and life after K-12 schooling are at the forefront of the KCCRS. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have put much more emphasis on student responsibility in general. I encourage kids to problem solve the issues they bring to me, from simple issues like forgetting a pencil, to more complex issues, such as a group not functioning well together during a project,â&#x20AC;? said Kelly Hart, seventh grade English language arts teacher at South Middle School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have become more of a facilitator and less of the classroom expert. My students are becoming more competent thinkers

and writers as a result. By the end of the year, they are less dependent on me to solve all their problems for them.â&#x20AC;?

WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE FOR KIDS? In the classroom, students will notice that instruction will likely include more opportunities to demonstrate critical thinking skills, requiring explanation of ideas and articulation of arguments.

Additionally, students will be challenged to articulate their understanding of information and demonstrate their ability to apply content knowledge in new ways.

This kind of instruction pushes teachers and students to focus on not just the What of content but the Why and How as well.

NOVEMBER IS ELEMENTARY PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCE TIME

By Sarah Oatsvall, assistant director of teaching and learning

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF AN ELEMENTARY PARENTTEACHER CONFERENCE? Elementary parent-teacher conferences provide an opportunity for teachers and educational support staff to communicate information to parents regarding their students’ academic and behavioral progress in school. Additionally, conferences allow teachers and parents to discuss the emotional, mental and physical wellbeing of students.

Lawrence elementary schools invite all parents of K-5 students to sign up for a fall conference, taking place the week of November 10.

“While educators are experts in teaching, parents are the experts about their children. It’s a priceless partnership and one that should be maximized,” said Darcy Kraus, Sunset Hill Elementary principal.

WHAT SHOULD PARENTS EXPECT DURING A CONFERENCE? During a scheduled conference, teachers will provide information about students’ academic and behavioral progress in class using the Standards-Based Progress Report for the appropriate grade level. The teacher will also share information about students’ achievement on assessments such as Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). The teacher will likely give parents examples of their students’ work that demonstrate achievement in certain areas.

In some schools, grade levels and classrooms, teachers are implementing student-led conferences, which are exactly that: conferences during which the student actively participates in the conversation with his or her parents

and teachers. This kind of conference provides an opportunity for students to articulate their strengths in the classroom, while verbalizing the areas where they may be struggling. Some teachers utilize this conference strategy to encourage student leadership, independence and self-advocacy.

HOW CAN A PARENT PREPARE FOR A CONFERENCE? Arriving with specific questions to discuss with the teacher can help guide the conversation and ensure that parents leave the conference with the information they need. Here are a few potential questions that may be helpful: • What are my child’s academic strengths and weaknesses?

• What does my child’s grade reflect? (Homework completion? Skills learned?

Test and quiz scores?)

October 2014

07

• What materials could I use to help at home?

• How much time should my child spend on homework?

• What kind of homework help should we provide at home?

• Does my child use his/her time effectively in class?

• In what ways do you reward good behavior in class, and what are consequences for misbehavior?

WHAT ABOUT AFTER THE CONFERENCE? Lawrence elementary teachers are committed to having meaningful parent-teacher conferences. Tight conference week schedules do pose some challenges. Parents may wish to schedule a follow-up meeting with the teacher to finish the conversation if, due to time constraints, additional questions remain.

AVID PROMOTES STUDENT GROWTH

By Leah Wisdom, student services coordinator

A group of Lawrence High School AVID students participate in a college visit to the campus of Pittsburg State University in Pittsburg, Kan.

In its third year in both Lawrence high schools, AVID continues to promote student growth. A global nonprofit organization, AVID, which stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination, operates under the guiding principle: hold students accountable to high standards, provide social and academic support and students will rise to the challenge.

Lawrence Public Schools partner with AVID as part of the district’s mission to support all students in achieving at high levels and graduating college and career ready. Free State and Lawrence High Schools continue to reach more students with AVID strategies as enrollment in the AVID elective course grows – from 30 students in 2012 to 145 students this year.

“AVID has personally impacted me by keeping me organized and motivating and preparing me for college and boosting my academic confidence,” said Lawrence High senior Christian Espinosa.

While all students can benefit from AVID strategies, some

08

students choose to pursue the AVID elective course, which focuses on students who are performing in the academic middle, yet exhibit high potential, strong determination and a desire to attend college.

“AVID is having a sustained and growing impact on student growth at Lawrence High School,” said Mark Pruet, assistant principal. “Teachers across the building are utilizing AVID strategies in their classrooms on a daily basis because they are effective and they support Kansas College and Career Ready Standards, blended learning and our equity work. We have more than 100 students who are in advanced or Advanced Placement courses who would not have taken them if it were not for AVID. Not only do our AVID students benefit from AVID but every student in the building is benefiting from the AVID system.”

Across all content areas, AVID’s curriculum and research-based strategies help develop students’ academic skills in reading, writing and critical thinking. AVID also emphasizes

academic behaviors, including organization, time management and goal setting. The program’s proven learning support structure, known as WICOR, incorporates teaching/ learning methodologies in the critical areas of Writing to Learn, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization and Reading to Learn. WICOR provides a learning model educators may use to guide students in comprehending material and articulating ideas at increasingly complex levels.

Driven by the WICOR method, and based on rigorous standards, AVID’s curriculum supports high levels of academic achievement for all students and aligns to state and national content standards.

The Lawrence Board of Education supported the expansion of AVID to all four Lawrence middle schools this year. At the middle level, each school is applying many of the WICOR strategies schoolwide. Additionally, the middle schools offer one AVID elective course in the eighth grade.

Sixty students are currently enrolled.

“My AVID class has helped me feel comfortable to talk in front of the class, since I’m shy,” says Chloe Taylor, a Southwest Middle School eighth-grader.

The AVID elective has a reputation for creating a culture that supports all learners in providing their best effort and reaching their full potential.

Many students refer to their AVID elective class as a family.

“I like AVID. I’m already pretty organized, but AVID helps me stay organized. I like to be in AVID because I feel good. I’m one of 12 people in this whole school in AVID and that’s a big deal to me. I also like the other kids in AVID. I like how I can trust them and how they support me,” said AllysSun Carper, a Southwest Middle School eighth-grader.

Middle school principals are excited for AVID to help take their students to the next level.

“AVID supports and identifies good instructional practices applicable across the building and in all content areas,” said Jennifer Bessolo, South Middle School principal.” AVID provides us opportunities to talk about college and post-secondary plans with students earlier than high school. By providing structure and opportunities for exposure and planning, AVID supports students becoming more confident about their futures.”

“POSITIVE ACTION” CREATES OPTIMAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS

By Kevin Harrell, student services director

Lawrence elementary schools implemented the Positive Action social skills curriculum at the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year.

The program promotes a safe and welcoming school environment by teaching students how to interact positively with peers, teachers and adults and creating a building culture committed to academic and behavior success.

The Positive Action program features prepared lessons organized in a kit. They include posters, games, worksheets, songs and puzzles. The program has a curriculum for each grade level.

The classroom teacher or counselor teaches the curriculum and gives students an opportunity to practice the skills throughout the school day or week.

The Positive Action program is based on the intuitive philosophy that when students feel good about themselves they act in a positive manner. The Thoughts-Actions-Feelings Circle (TAF) illustrates how this works: thoughts lead to actions and those actions lead to feelings, which in turn lead to more thoughts. When this cycle is positive, students want to learn. When this cycle is negative, students do not want to learn. The essence of the program emphasizes those actions that promote a healthy and positive cycle.

Each school integrates the Positive Action program with its student reward system. When school staff see students demonstrating positive behaviors, such as respecting self, respecting others or respecting property, staff recognize the

students for exhibiting these positive actions through a reinforcement system. One example might be a ticket system, in which students have the opportunity to exchange the tickets they earn for a variety of rewards.

“Our goal with this curriculum is children learning how to care for themselves, their fellow students, their environment and their work.

Building a common knowledge is a powerful tool as everyone commits to making school a great place for ALL,” said Samrie Devin, Quail Run Elementary principal.

Ask your child, your child’s teacher or your school principal about Positive Action. Learn more about Positive Action at www.positiveaction.com.

DISTRICT HOSTS PUBLIC INPUT MEETINGS ABOUT SCHOOL BOUNDARY RECOMMENDATIONS The Lawrence Board of Education on September 22, received a report about the Boundary Advisory Committee’s recommendations for elementary and middle school boundary changes. In summary, those recommendations are as follows: ELEMENTARY BOUNDARY ADJUSTMENTS • Langston Hughes Elementary – students in the area north of 6th St. and east of Queens Rd. extending to Folks Rd. will attend Quail Run Elementary.

• Schwegler Elementary – students in the area north of Clinton Parkway and east of Kasold Dr. extending to Iowa St. will attend Hillcrest Elementary.

• Deerfield Elementary – students in the area south of Stetson Dr. east to Kasold Dr. and the area south of Trail Rd., between Monterey Way and McDonald Dr. will attend Sunset Hill Elementary.

MIDDLE SCHOOL BOUNDARY ADJUSTMENTS • Pinckney Elementary – all students will attend Liberty Memorial Central Middle including the

area north of 6th St. extending to I-70 and east of Iowa St. extending to the Kansas River.

• Langston Hughes Elementary – all students will attend Southwest Middle including the area north of 6th St. and west of Queens Rd. extending to the district boundary lines.

• Schwegler Elementary – all students will attend South Middle including the area north of 31st St. extending north to Clinton Parkway and east of Kasold Dr. • Sunflower Elementary – all students will attend Southwest Middle including the area north of K-10 extending to 31st St. and east of Kasold Dr. extending to Iowa St. • Quail Run Elementary – students north of Harvard Rd. extending to the district boundary line and east of Queens Rd. extending to Monterrey Way will attend West Middle.

The district conducted public input meetings at Langston Hughes and Sunflower Elementary Schools earlier this month, and will host the following additional public meetings to discuss the proposed boundary changes. All are welcome. The district has

mailed letters of invitation to school communities that would be directly affected by the proposed changes.

PUBLIC INPUT MEETINGS • Quail Run Elementary – November 3, 5:30-6:30 p.m.

• Deerfield Elementary – November 3, 7-8 p.m.

• Schwegler Elementary – November 6, 5:30-6:30 p.m.

• Pinckney Elementary – November 6, 7-8 p.m.

If approved by the board in November, all boundary changes would take effect in August of 2015, with the exception of the Deerfield to Sunset Hill change, which will be delayed one year due to construction at Sunset Hill. The Boundary Advisory Committee has proposed a multi-year transitional process to allow families of older children at the elementary (grades 3-5) and middle school (grades 7-8) levels some choice with regard to their students’ and their students’ younger siblings’ attendance centers.

Patrons may find more information about the Boundary Advisory Committee and its recommendations, including boundary maps illustrating the proposed changes, online at www.usd497.org.

COMING IN JANUARY:

Lawrence Public Schools’ Mail-Ballot Election Registered voters living within the boundaries of the Lawrence Public Schools should watch their mailboxes for a January ballot. The Lawrence Board of Education will seek via mail-ballot election on January 27, 2015, public authorization to maintain its current Local Option Budget (LOB) authority.

Upon approval of its 2014-15 budget, the board determined it was in the best interest of the school district to exercise a special legislative provision enabling boards of education to increase their LOB authority by 2%, from 31% to 33% of their district’s

Lawrence Public Schools Newsletter

state financial aid. The Lawrence Board of Education supported this change to partially offset a net loss of $1.8 million in state financial aid due to 2014 legislative changes in the way Kansas calculates the LOB. The board’s 2% adjustment in the LOB provided the district approximately $1.4 million in operating funds without increasing local school taxes.

To the contrary, the board’s 2014-15 budget reduced the local mill levy for schools by 1.6 mills, from 57.788 to 56.197 mills. This fourth reduction

in the local school mill levy in as many years meant a $37 tax savings, for example, for the owner of a $200,000 home.

When the board asks district voters to approve a permanent 33% LOB authority in January, school taxes would not increase as a result of an affirmative vote. If the board is unable to maintain its current LOB authority, it will need to identify approximately $1.4 million in cuts in school staffing, programs and/ or materials and/or reallocations from contingency reserves, funds used for emergency school needs.
