City ponders requiring local tie for incentives

Promising A NEW DAY

———

Commissioners interested in exploring community benefit plan for projects

By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

As developments aided by local tax dollars are built, it could be the pockets of outof-state contractors and workers who benefit as concrete is poured, bricks laid and wiring strung.

But as the city works to rewrite its public incentives policy, that could change. Local leaders are interested in requiring that some degree of area or state resources be used for developments relying on economic incentives.

“I definitely think it’s something we should explore,” Vice Mayor Leslie Soden Soden said. “We want those incentives to benefit our local community as much as possible, so by having a local preference that would hopefully help achieve that.”

Currently, millions of dollars of potential tax revenue — through property tax rebates, sales tax exemptions and oth- Amyx er tax abatements — are being provided annually to developers. Last year, 28 such agreements were in effect, including apartment, hotel and industrial projects.

Mayor Mike Amyx also recently pushed the topic. At the commission’s most recent meeting, Amyx pointedly asked a local developer making an incentives request about

rom its name to the federal laws and guidance that necessitate its existence, the Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access at the University of Kansas certainly deals heavily in compliance and procedure.

However, Michael “Shane” McCreery said he doesn’t want that to get in the way of the

human side of his office’s core mission: “How can we help?”

McCreery is in his first semester as director of KU’s Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access (IOA) and, as part of that job, also the university’s official Title IX coordinator.

He said he’s bringing a shift in attitude and isn’t intimidated by negative attention the office has gotten in recent years, which includes national media coverage of multiple Title IX

lawsuits against KU and a spot on the list of universities under investigation by the U.S. Department of Education for their handling of sexual violence reports.

“It’s an entirely new day for this office,” McCreery said.

“The whole goal here is to help.”

IOA is charged with investigating and adjudicating

candidates for the IOA director position visited KU and gave public presentations in early January, though none was hired.

“Shane emerged from a very strong applicant pool because of his extensive experience as an equal opportunity leader and as a Title IX coordinator,” Mike Rounds, KU’s associate vice provost for Human Resource Management, said in an announcement about McCreery’s selection. “He has done a remarkable job at Illinois State University, and we are very excited to have someone with his leadership credentials join the KU team.”

McCreery, who is married with two young children, is originally from tiny Mason City, Ill. — population roughly 2,000, he said.

He got his bachelor’s degree in English from Illinois College and a law degree from Ohio Northern University, where he said he found he had a knack for alternative dispute resolution and also liked civil rights courses.

After graduating, he worked as a human resources affirmative action officer for the Illinois Department of Revenue, then for the state board of education as deputy director of human resources, focusing on harassment and discrimination cases.

complaints of discrimination at KU, including sexual harassment and sexual violence.

McCreery said the types of complaints the office handles are underreported but critical to address. He wants to make IOA a place people feel comfortable turning to for help, and assumes the office’s caseload will go up as a result.

“I’m going to measure success in how many people bring their concerns forward,” McCreery said.

“They’re all emotionally charged concerns, especially when you’re dealing with young men and women adjusting to college life ... These are personal, these are stressful, and they can become all-encompassing.” l l l

McCreery, who started Sept. 1, came to KU after 12 years in a similar position, director of the Office of Equal Opportunity, Ethics and Access at Illinois State University.

He replaces former IOA director Jane McQueeny, who resigned in October 2015. IOA Title IX investigator Joshua Jones had served as interim director since.

his “willingness to buy local” for a project to convert an old East Lawrence warehouse into a restaurant, brewery and apartment building. The developer, Adam Williams, told Amyx that he uses local labor and materials, with exceptions for things such as elevators, which must be bought elsewhere.

“We buy everything local; all the labor is local,” Williams told the commission.

If Lawrence were to make a community benefit requirement more official, it wouldn’t be alone.

Earlier this year, Kansas City passed a “community benefits plan.” The resolution asks that jobs or other local benefits be included in economic incentive agreements. Soden said it makes sense to require a certain percentage of jobs associated with a development to be filled by Douglas County workers.

“I think it’s reasonable to expect that a majority of their employees or contractors live within the county, so we can

keep those payroll dollars circulating locally,” Soden said.

Community benefit agreements are used on a project-by-project basis across the country, in cities such as Minneapolis, Baltimore and Denver, to ensure components such as local labor, fair wages or other requirements. And voters in Detroit are about to take the idea further once they choose between two proposals for a community benefit ordinance for the city, according reports from the Detroit Free Press.

If such an ordinance were enacted in Lawrence, it would require additional oversight and handling by the city. Currently, the city doesn’t track whether publicly assisted developments use area contractors, according to Britt Crum-Cano, the city’s economic development coordinator. How much

local construction materials and labor — and whether those workers receive quality wages and benefits — might also require a dedicated review process.

Kansas City, for instance, has a board that reviews the community benefits of incentive agreements, and Soden said something similar would likely be required if Lawrence were to adopt a policy. Realistic requirements would also need to be determined, as some specialized labor and materials would be hard to find locally or even in the state, Soden said.

“As for challenges, not all materials are made here in Douglas County; there’s definitely items we need to bring in,” Soden said. “… It’s important to keep those things in mind. We can’t just proclaim that everything related to a project has to come from Douglas County when it may not even be possible.

That’s not fair.”

Tracy Green, president of Lawrence-based B.A. Green Construction Company, agreed that those considerations would be vital. Green said that although they always like to use local subcontractors and suppliers on their projects, sometimes they have not been able to find certain services — such as commerciallevel masonry or precast concrete — in Douglas County.

“You literally have to travel a ways to find a supplier to provide that type of a product,” Green said.

For Green, it is also important to consider how widespread use of community benefit ordinances would affect his company, which does business in various nearby municipalities. For that reason, Green said they have been historically against such measures.

“Essentially, we wouldn’t want to be put

upon by the commission.

The staff recommended CIP for 2018 to 2022 is currently projected to cost $130 million. It includes projects such as Advanced Metering Infrastructure, the design of the Kansas River Waste Water Treatment Plant for nutrient removal, a field operations building and Bowersock Dam repairs.

The discussion comes as a rate increase for water, solid waste and stormwater passed by the commission in 2015 is scheduled to go into effect Nov. 15. The total monthly increase for all three services is about $5, assuming an average residential customer using 4,000 gallons of water per month.

If the commission decides to go forward with

changes, the billing model would be developed and finalized as part of the commission’s 2018 budget considerations in the spring.

City commissioners will meet at 4 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St.

Balancing care for a complainant and due process for a respondent can be challenging, he said, but communicating clearly to both parties what they can expect helps.

At KU, new resources that provide advocacy for victims — the Sexual Assault Prevention and Education Center (SAPEC) and the Watkins Health Servicesbased CARE Coordinator — also help by enabling IOA to be a neutral factfinder, McCreery said.

Another challenge for IOA is finding the line between discrimination and free speech, another topic that has garnered national attention during discussions about racism at KU and other college campuses over the past year.

The legal benchmark for determining if an action constitutes discrimination is whether it is severe, pervasive and objectionable enough to create a hostile learning or working environment, McCreery said.

That must be decided on a case-by-case basis, he said.

Part of the college experience is being exposed to ideas that are different from your own, he said. At the same time, it’s the university’s responsibility to ensure those ideas are expressed appropriately.

“There is an

After going to work for Illinois State, as required compliance grew more complex, McCreery in 2009 changed the name of his office from its circa-1975 title, the Office of Diversity and Affirmative Action, to its current one, the Office of Equal Opportunity, Ethics and Access.

He was also leading the office in 2011, when the U.S. Department of Education issued federal guidance in the form of a “Dear Colleague” letter explaining that under Title IX — previously known best for requiring equal opportunity for women’s sports — universities also must address reports of sexual harassment and sexual violence on their campuses, as they fall into the category of genderbased discrimination in education.

“That was a bit of a game-changer,” McCreery said.

He mapped out a new process for handling Title IX complaints at Illinois State, including steps for complaint resolution, memorandums of understanding with local law enforcement and resources for students.

L awrence J ournal -W orld expectation for all members of the KU community to treat one another with respect, tolerance and civility,” he said.

McCreery said he wants to “rebuild confidence” in IOA’s approach to complaints.

Getting information about the IOA process online in “plainspeak” is one goal, as is creating a one-stop Title IX website to be shared between IOA and other campus units such as KU police, student affairs and SAPEC. He also wants IOA’s three investigators to get out on campus to help educate students about the office’s processes.

McCreery said that not all complaints will fall within the purview of IOA. However, he wants students to come to his office anyway. If complaints aren’t in IOA’s jurisdiction to investigate, he wants to directly refer students to other campus resources that can help and support them with their problem. Over time, he hopes to identify any gaps in resources and suggest what the university needs to fill them.

“IOA will take all comers,” McCreery said. “If you have a concern we will work to address it.”

at a competitive disadvantage based on a ‘home rule,’ if you want to call it that,” Green said. “…We’ve done as much work in Topeka, for instance, recently as we have in Lawrence.”

There may be other reverberating effects as well.

If the city were to require certain labor or supplier standards be followed by private industry when it receives an incentive, it might have a weak argument for not holding itself to those same standards.

That’s something that deserves some thought, according to Soden.

“I think that would be really important (to consider),” Soden said, noting that some cities require the use of organized labor.

So far, though, a community benefit requirement hasn’t made its way onto the list of recommended changes to the city’s economic development policies. The City Commission reviewed a draft of those recommendations last month, and the topic is scheduled to come before the commission for further review on Dec. 20.

Teen to be tried as adult in murder case, as juvenile in others

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

Seventeen-year-old Jaered Long was booked into the Douglas County Jail Tuesday as he awaits a criminal trial in the stabbing death of his grandmother, Deborah Bretthauer.

He was previously an inmate in Douglas County Juvenile Detention.

Long faces a single charge of first-degree murder as an adult.

However, he faces two felony battery charges as a juvenile, and Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said in an email that Long would remain in juvenile court for those cases.

D o u g l a s County District Court Judge Kay Huff decided Long would be tried as an adult in the murder case. In support of her decision, Long Huff cited the nature of the crime and and a lack of effective rehabilitation resources that would be available to Long if he were convicted as a juvenile.

Under the current law, Branson said the two felony battery charges — which were filed after the murder charge — would need to be waived up to adult status on their own merit.

“At this time, we do not plan to ask for that waiver given the gravity of the adult case,” he said. “We will have those charges trail the adult case and decide what to do with those charges after the adult case is resolved.”

During a two-day hearing in September three Douglas County Juvenile Detention Center corrections officers testified that Long had assaulted them. Felony battery charges were filed for two of the three cases and Branson said his office does plan to file the third.

Sentencing guidelines differ greatly between convictions in adult court and adjudication in

juvenile court.

For example, if Long would have been adjudicated of firstdegree murder in juvenile court, he would have faced a maximum sentence of 60 months in prison or up to the age of 22. If he is convicted in adult court, he faces life in prison.

Long’s murder trial is scheduled to begin in February 2017, and Branson said the outcome of the case will determine what happens to the battery charges.

If Long is convicted of murder and adjudicated in the battery cases, Branson said the murder conviction would control the sentencing, meaning

he would be sent directly to prison rather than to a juvenile facility.

Long was arrested in late December after Bretthauer, 67, was found stabbed to death in her apartment at 1200 George Court.

Long, who was 16 at the time, and Bretthauer lived in the apartment together.

Long remains in the Douglas County Jail in lieu of a $500,000 bond. If he is able to post bond, he is ordered not to have any contact with any of the cases’ witnesses, excluding his family.

Wichita-area school district recovers $500K in fraud case Maize (ap) — A Kansas school district has recovered almost half a million dollars from the estate of a former technology director who was the subject of a federal probe into a fraud, money laundering and kickback scheme.

Ramon Mosate, who had worked for the Maize school district since 1997, was placed on leave in November 2014 after FBI agents executed a search warrant at the district’s headquarters. He was fired in February 2015 and killed himself in Texas two months later.

An FBI affidavit chronicled years of money transfers and cash payments between Mosate and several vendors who were paid more than $4 million

for technology-related services, The Wichita Eagle reported.

According to court records obtained by the newspaper, a U.S. District Court judge ordered that $78,651 be paid to Mosate’s widow, Angie, and the remainder of the estate’s proceeds — nearly $490,000 — go to the Maize school district, which had made a claim “in excess of $500,000.”

The FBI believes Mosates’ home in northwest Wichita and the contents of his checking account and a safe deposit box containing about $80,000 were funded by criminal activity.

The Mosates’ 6,000-squarefoot, six-bedroom home was last appraised at $628,600, according to Sedgwick County

tax records. The house sold in September 2015 for about $483,000, but proceeds were held in lien pending lawsuits.

In a statement to school district employees, Maize superintendent Chad Higgins said the settlement is “positive news for our district.”

“Though this total does not equal all of the potential financial losses, Maize Schools is grateful to the officials who worked to recover taxpayer resources that belong in our district, our classrooms, and our community,” the superintendent said.

The settlement payment, which the district received this week, will go into the district’s capital outlay fund where it “could protect the district

financially as we continue in an uncertain atmosphere of public school funding with potential cuts following the election,” Higgins said.

The Maize district’s claim against the estate of Ramon Mosate sought damages for “fraud, conversion, and civil theft, and breach of contract in connection with embezzlement of funds.”

Angie Mosate, who had worked for the district as a curriculum clerk until being fired in March 2015, said in a court document that she was unaware of any alleged illegal acts committed by her late husband. She argued that any proceeds from his estate belong to her and the couple’s four children.

BRIEFLY Fire guts Wichita gym where Olympian trains Wichita — A fire has gutted the Wichita gym where Olympic medalist Nico Hernandez trains.

The Wichita Eagle reports the fire was reported Saturday at the Northside Boxing Academy, where Olympic bronze medalist Nico Hernandez trains. No injuries were reported.

Investigators said the fire caused an estimated $75,000 in damages to the structure and contents. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Emiliano Hernandez, the gym manager and Nico Hernandez’s uncle, says the gym also trains 30 to 40 neighborhood boys and

adults and has nonprofit charity.

Nico Hernandez won his bronze Olympic medal this summer in Rio de Janeiro. His uncle says Nico Hernandez has been training at the gym to stay in shape for the next chapter of his career.

Detective, suspect wounded in gun battle Topeka — A Topeka police detective and a suspect were wounded as officers tried to take the suspect into custody.

Topeka police Lt. Colleen Stuart told The Topeka Capital-Journal that the detective was in fair condition after he was shot in the leg and the abdomen late Saturday.

Police say the suspect sustained life-threatening injuries.

Police say the two were wounded when the suspect exchanged gunfire with police responding to a convenience store robbery.

Lawrence Green Beret killed in Jordan Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Defense Department has identified three soldiers killed in a shooting this week outside a military base in Jordan.

The department said in a release Sunday that 27-year-old Staff Sgt. Matthew C. Lewellen, a Green Beret of Lawrence; 30-year-old Staff Sgt. Kevin J. McEnroe of Tucson, Ariz.; and 27-year-old Staff Sgt. James F. Moriarty of Kerrville, Texas, died Friday after the convoy they were in came under fire as it entered a Jordanian military base.

The Defense Department is investigating.

The department says the soldiers were assigned to the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) from Fort Campbell, Ky., and were supporting Operation Inherent Resolve.

According to the news release, Lewellen had more than six years of service in the Army. His family said in a statement to The Kirksville Daily Express he was raised in Kirksville, Mo., and was a “born leader, a true American.” They said his military awards included the Bronze Star and Army Commendation Medal.

St. Luke’s medical system plans to add ‘micro’ hospitals on Kansas side Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — A trend of providing tiny hospitals that offer eight to 10 overnight beds and 24hour emergency services — called micro hospitals — is coming to Johnson County.

St. Luke’s Health System of Kansas City, Mo., says it is planning to build micro hospitals in Roeland Park, Overland Park, Leawood and Kansas City, Kan., to supplement its nine existing hospitals in the two

states, The Kansas City Star reported.

Although it has St. Luke’s South Hospital in Overland Park, “our Kansas footprint was fairly small,” said Robert Bonney, a senior vice president in the St. Luke’s system. “We wanted to improve access for people who wanted to access our health system.”

The St. Luke’s system isn’t currently planning to add micro hospitals in

Missouri because the state has more stringent requirements for adding overnight beds than Kansas. In Missouri, hospitals must complete a lengthy and expensive Certificate of Need process with the state to add overnight beds. Kansas doesn’t require the certificates of need.

Micro hospitals are also growing in Colorado, Texas, Nevada and Arizona, states that also don’t require

Certificates of Need.

Most of the micro hospitals are 15,000- to 50,000-square-foot facilities that cost $10 million to $30 million, far smaller and less expensive than large hospitals.

Spokesmen for the University of Kansas Hospital, Prime Health, North Kansas City and HCA Midwest all said their hospital companies have no immediate plans to add micro

Great Plains Energy Incorporated (GPE), Kansas City Power & Light Company (KCP&L) and Westar Energy, Inc. (Westar) have filed a joint application with the Kansas Corporation Commission (the Commission), seeking approval of the acquisition of Westar by GPE, the parent company of KCP&L, for a total purchase price of $12.2 billion, including assumed debt. If the application is approved and upon the closing of the transaction, Westar will become a wholly owned subsidiary of GPE.

Proven Leadership Dear Friends and Neighbors: Now is a good time to review Barbara Ballard’s long and impressive record of service, so we can work and vote to send her back to Topeka. Some things are changing within the state, and we should all benefit from Barbara Ballard’s experience, leadership, wisdom, poise, and energy as these changes develop.

Barbara now Chairs the Minority Caucus for the Kansas House. She is also known nationally, as President and member of the Executive Board of the National Black Caucus of State Legislators. Within the Kansas House, she is a member of the all-important Appropriations Committee, the ranking Democrat on the Social Services Budget Committee, a member of the Transportation Committee, and a member of the Home and Community Based Services and KanCare Oversight Committee, which will have a great deal of highly important work to do in the coming session.

Barbara has served well, and continues to serve Lawrence in a good variety of ways with Board service for Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, Cottonwood, Inc., and a past member of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. Barbara earned Master’s and Doctoral Degrees in Guidance and Counseling, and Counseling and Student Personnel Services from K-State. At KU she is currently Associate Director of the Dole Institute of Politics, after directing the Emily Taylor Women’s Resource Center and serving as both Associate Dean of Students and Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs. These experiences, many of them related to her terms as a member, and twice President, of the USD 497 School Board (1985-1993), give her a welcome comprehensive understanding of the ways our state’s public education system works, which has been threatened in recent years. Barbara Ballard carries both a professional perspective and common sense about how we could and should improve on Kansas public education, our best hope for our children and grandchildren.

If approved, Great Plains Energy will have more than 1.5 million customers in Kansas and Missouri, nearly 13,000 megawatts of generation capacity, almost 10,000 miles of transmission lines and over 51,000 miles of distribution lines. In addition, more than 45 percent of the combined utility’s retail customer demand can be met with emission-free energy. Westar and KCP&L have assured the Commission in their joint application that customers will see no change in their day-to-day utility service as a result of the transaction and will continue to receive safe, reliable and efficient service at just and reasonable rates.

The Commission will decide whether or not to approve the acquisition. Approval will depend upon whether the Commission finds the acquisition promotes the public convenience. The Commission will evaluate any possible effects on ratepayers, operational synergies, competition in the market for electricity, labor dislocations, environmental impacts and any other relevant issues, in making its determination. Westar and KCP&L customers are invited to provide comments regarding these issues.

PUBLIC HEARING The Commission has scheduled a public hearing to provide KCP&L and Westar customers an opportunity to find out more about the proposed acquisition, ask questions and make comments about the proposal.

The public hearing is scheduled for: Monday, Dec. 5, 2016 at 6 p.m. CST Shawnee Heights High School 4201 SE Shawnee Heights Road Tecumseh, Kansas 66542 Those unable to attend in person can watch the hearing live from the Commission’s website: www.kcc.ks.gov. In the event of technical difficulty or for those unable to watch live, a recording of the hearing will be available on the Commission’s website beginning Dec. 12.

Any person requiring special accommodations at the hearing site under The Americans with Disabilities Act needs to provide notice to the Commission at least 10 days prior to the scheduled hearing by calling 1-800-662-0027.

2 men accused in immigrant plot were rejected by militia Wichita (ap) — A Kansas militia group says it rejected two men who are accused of plotting to kill immigrants in western Kansas because they were “too extreme for us.”

Those two men, Patrick Stein and Gavin Wright, have pleaded not guilty to a federal charge accusing them of conspiring with another man, Curtis Allen, in what federal prosecutors said was a domestic terrorism plot by members of a small militia group to attack Somali immigrants in Garden City.

The criminal complaint alleged that the defendants were key members of a militia group.

Attorneys for Wright and Stein declined to comment on the case. Allen’s attorney did not respond to a request from the Kansas City Star for comment.

Stein’s attorney, Ed Robinson, told a magistrate judge during an Oct. 21 detention hearing that the three men were not plotting an attack but accumulating weapons and ammunition as a means to defend themselves in case of a “massive social upheaval.”

Miles Evans, state commander of the Kansas Flatlanders Militia, said Stein and Wright first contacted him about a week apart in July or August through social media. Evans said he had

Stein

Allen

run into the two at militia training events but they belonged to another group.

“So I went to my second-in-command and spoke with him. He basically said all we can do is vet them, see what their outlook is and see what their intentions are,” said Evans, of Wichita. He said about halfway through the process they rejected the men.

“They were just very extreme with the way they go about things,” he said. “Too extreme for us.”

Evans said his group is the biggest militia in Kansas and has about 30 members who are “likeminded, law-abiding citizens that all believe the same thing. And that is, our government is turning to (expletive).”

Members are dedicated to serving their communities in times of natural and man-made disasters, he said.

“We’re just ordinary citizens committed to

Wright the preservation of the American way with strict adherence to the Constitution of the United States and of Kansas, and to the Republic of the United States of America,” he said.

He said Stein’s responses to some questions were troubling.

“One of the deals he was talking about, if we ever had a fallout situation or anything, our bugout locations, where they would be, what would we do, and how would we take that area and hold it for our own and stuff like that,” Evans said. “And he just started talking about popping people.

He was like, ‘When it comes to things like that, I ain’t even letting them go through the gate. Our numbers are going to be high enough; we need to defend what’s ours and we need to keep the number low.’ “ Evans said that was a red flag.

“We bounced him out of the chat,” he said.

Missouri woman petitions for tougher poaching fines Maryland Heights, Mo. (ap) — A suburban St. Louis woman has launched an online petition push she hopes compels Missouri lawmakers to increases the fines for wildlife poachers.

Self-described hunter Sarah Cox of Maryland Heights said she launched the petition driver months ago after reading that a man faced only a $99.50 fine for illegally killing a black bear, the Springfield News-Leader reported. Cox also said she was outraged after a poacher killed a Missouri elk and removed the antlers with a chain saw, only to leave the animal’s carcass to rot.

Cox’s petition also presses lawmakers to take illegal harvesting of wildlife more seriously and require repeat offenders to face felonies and be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

The effort also calls upon

of

season

style savings event

legislators to create a law that would allow authorities to confiscate guns, knives, boats, vehicles and anything else poachers use during the crime, with those items to be auctioned to benefit public schools.

“I’m a hunter and grew up seeing all the wildlife Missouri has to offer,” said Cox, whose petition on change.org had collected nearly 6,600 signatures as of Friday. “The lax punishment and penalties for poachers in Missouri needs to change. It’s the right thing to do. We have such small penalties for such a large crime.”

Her petition also endorses previous efforts by state Rep. Linda Black, a Park Hills Republican, to require restitution from poachers who illegally killed deer, elk, black bears or turkeys.

That legislation, which never was brought to a House vote, called for

restitution of $750 for each poached wild turkey, $1,500 for deer, and $3,500 for elk or black bear. Black’s House term ends at the end of the year due to term limits, and it’s not clear whether the legislation will go forward.

Cox plans to share her petition with lawmakers to demonstrate the support she says there is for changing Missouri’s poaching laws.

EDITORIALS

Please vote The attitude that it’s best to sit out a whole election when you don’t like two of the choices is harmful.

I

n 24 hours, the nation’s voters will head to the polls to select a new U.S. president in an election that is already historic based on the low favorability ratings of Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton. Never before has there been such dislike and distrust for the two major party candidates.

There’s a notion among some that the best way to address this dissatisfaction with the choices is to protest by not voting at all. Many argue that, because of the Electoral College, individual votes don’t matter, particularly in a majority of states, including Kansas, where one party has such an overwhelming advantage that the presidential election outcome and the resulting Electoral College votes for the state are essentially predetermined.

But such thinking is shortsighted and misses the fundamental influence that election outcomes can have on candidates and policies. It’s not only who wins that matters, but also vote totals and percentages. Elected officials — the smart ones, anyway — pay attention to election results and adjust to reflect the will of their constituencies.

Besides, there is more to Tuesday’s election than Trump and Clinton. In Douglas County, voters will have a hand in helping select a U.S. senator, U.S. representative, three state senators, three state representatives, two county commissioners and a state board of education member. Several individuals are running unopposed for county offices: treasurer, clerk, register of deeds, sheriff and district attorney.

Five Kansas Supreme Court justices face retention elections amid a wellfunded political campaign to oust them.

In a previous editorial, the Journal-World endorsed the work of all five justices and supported retaining all of them.

Finally, there is an effort to amend the Kansas Constitution to protect hunting and fishing. In a previous editorial, the Journal-World opposed the amendment as unnecessary.

Contrary to the “my vote doesn’t matter” philosophy, the ballot box is the great equalizer in a democracy. It is the opportunity to not only choose but also to influence the people representing us in Douglas County, Topeka and Washington.

Votes do matter. Cast yours Tuesday if you haven’t already.

Russia wounded but still can bite Washington — Whoever wins Tuesday’s presidential election will face an assertive, aggrieved Russia whose risk-taking behavior under President Vladimir Putin is increasingly worrisome to American experts.

Today’s pushy, headstrong Russia presents a paradox: By most measures, it’s a country in decline, with a sagging economy, an underdeveloped technology base and a shrinking population.

Corruption pervades nearly every sector. The collapse of the Soviet Union is still an open wound, and many Russians blame the United States for taking advantage of them during their years of decline.

Yet this inwardly weak Russia displays the cockiness of a street fighter.

It is waging war in Syria, Ukraine and in cyberspace with a seeming disdain for American power. According to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Russian hackers sought to “interfere with the U.S. election process,” on authority of the highest levels of the Russian government.

“Putin’s definition of risktaking has evolved in the direction of greater boldness and less attention to how it will affect the U.S.,” argues Dimitri Simes, president of the Center for the National Interest. “Putin thinks that American positive inducements are next to nonexistent, and that the penalties are minimal, and will be imposed whatever he does.”

The next president must assess how to alter Russian

“

The next president must assess how to alter Russian behavior, without direct military confrontation.” behavior, without direct military confrontation. Is that best done by cutting deals with Putin, as Donald Trump suggests? Or should it be a firmer process of asserting U.S. power and interests, as Hillary Clinton has argued? This may be the biggest national-security issue in the election.

Future U.S. strategy should begin with a clear understanding of how Putin’s Kremlin looks at the world.

And here, leading American analysts offer some disturbing warnings. Moscow sees itself as the wounded party, fighting back after decades of U.S. supremacy. Putin, the ex-KGB officer, is turning the tools of covert subversion and information operations developed during the Cold War back against the United States.

“The evidence does not seem to suggest that Putin favors one candidate over the other this November.

Instead, it suggests that he

favors chaos. He wants the American political process to look bad,” writes national security analyst James Ludes in a post titled “The Russians Read our Cold War Playbook.” Moscow’s new propaganda themes include U.S. government surveillance, political corruption that benefits elites and rigged elections, he argues.

Russia’s strategy has been characterized as “hybrid warfare,” but historian Angus E. Goldberg contends in Small Wars Journal that a better term is the Russian word “bespredel,” which means “absence of limits,” or “anything goes.”

The word is often used to describe the behavior of the corrupt oligarchs who have prospered in Putin’s Russia.

Moscow’s new weapons range across the spectrum of hard and soft power, overt and covert. “What binds them together as a coherent system is the willingness of the Russian Federation to implement them without any constraints,” writes Goldberg.

Putin himself displays an unusual combination of personal traits. “He can be emotional, headstrong, even impulsive,” argues Stephen Sestanovich, a Russia expert at Columbia University. But Putin is also calculating.

“The Russians have a saying: Measure seven times, cut once. He’s that kind of careful guy.”

Over the last few years, Putin’s risk tolerance has clearly grown. “In the

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 7, 1916: l “The voting in the city this years morning started as soon as the ago polling places were opened, IN 1916 and a remarkably large vote was cast for the forenoon hours. There was every prospect of a record vote in the city.”

history of the Cold War, they never did anything remotely like the intervention in Syria,” notes Sestanovich.

Moscow calculates that “the risk of dangerous payback is less than it used to be.”

Putin’s behavior is also shaped by the increasing ascendancy of military and intelligence officials in his inner circle. Like Putin, they are Cold War veterans with a sense of grievance against America. A well-placed Russian recently described to Simes the worldview of these Kremlin insiders: “We are being surrounded.

America wants to destroy us. The only thing they understand is force.”

So back to the question for Election Day: Which approach to dealing with this newly threatening Russia makes the most sense? Many analysts fear that Trump’s conciliatory words would be read in Moscow as a sign of American exhaustion, and feed new demands. Cybersecurity expert Dmitri Alperovitch argued in a recent podcast with War on the Rocks that if Moscow’s covert meddling isn’t deterred, it’s “going to be played over and over again across the globe.”

Clinton’s tougher stance sounds like a better way to protect U.S. interests, so long as she doesn’t make Putin feel humiliated or backed into a corner. This Russia is weaker than it looks, but it has been wounded by recent history and is all too ready to lash out.

OLD HOME TOWN From the Kansas Daily Tribune for Nov. 7, 1866: l “The Oskaloosa Indepenyears dent says that Mr. Shakespeare ago Moore, residing at Williamsport IN 1866 (on the railroad) in this county, has been missing for over two weeks. The last known of him, he left Mr. Paul E. Haven’s residence in Leavenworth, to take the evening boat to Atchison, designing to return home across the country. As he had a considerable sum of money with him at the time, fears of foul play are entertained.”

Readable rules To the editor: I recently took an out-of-town guest to see James Naismith’s original rules of basketball in the DeBruce Center.

He was disappointed because the lighting is so poor (to keep the rules from being damaged) that he couldn’t read them. Why can’t they put a blown-up facsimile next to the original rules so people know what they say?

Clark H. Coan, Lawrence

State’s safety net To the editor: In a recent Wichita Eagle editorial, Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) Secretary Tim Keck, described the state’s safety net for Kansans as “strong and improving every day.” KanCare’s promises were many: the right service at the right time with no cuts to benefits and services, and with an actual expansion of mental health services and employment opportunities for Kansans with disabilities. The reality experienced by Cottonwood is much different.

What we have seen is an underfunded system continuously being whittled away. Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Medicaid rates have not been adjusted in over eight years, making it increasingly difficult to attract and retain qualified staff to meet the needs of the individuals served.

This past May, the state cut $56 million from KanCare to help balance the budget. As a result, our Targeted Case Management Services received a 4 percent cut. Even more burdensome

was a change in the state’s Residential Pay Policy leaving us uncertain about the future impact of these reductions.

We would contend that any success in caring for developmentally disabled citizens is due to the excellent work of the dedicated personnel who serve these citizens and not any action taken by the state of Kansas. We remain hopeful that there are no further cuts to serving those who are most in need of Home and Community Based Services.

Sidewalk burden To the editor: I am a homeowner who is very concerned about the sidewalk repair issue. A retired public school teacher, I am financially vulnerable. I have over 200 feet of sidewalk along Bob Billings Parkway. There is no way I can pay the thousands of dollars mentioned in the latest Journal-World article.

I have lived here since 1980, when this area was county and Bob Billings Parkway did not exist. My street was a dead end. After annexation in 1985, the city took a strip of my property for the road, and I had to pay special assessments for curbs and sidewalks.

Being on the corner, I paid more than anyone else in the benefit district.

Imagine my consternation when work crews drove heavy equipment on the new sidewalks and broke them. I have photographs. Next, the city required I connect with city sewers. That cost me $20,000 of my retirement savings.

This past June, AT&T dug up all 200

feet of my frontage on Bob Billings.

They, too, have driven heavy equipment and damaged the sidewalks even more. I photographed this as well.

Given the above history, I believe the city should find a way to distribute sidewalk repair costs to those who did the damage, as well as to those who use the sidewalks, i.e., the public at large.

Bitsey Patton, Lawrence

Not affordable To the editor: I just felt it was necessary to chime in on our “unaffordable health care act.” My wife and I just received our health care renewal for 2017 from BlueCross BlueShield of Kansas.

Our premium rose from $786 to $1,251. That is only a 59 percent increase. I do not see how families in Kansas can afford monthly budget hits such as this. And my president told me every family would save $2,500 a year when he was trying to sell us this mess.

So my premiums went up over $5000 this year. WOW! Tim Windholz, Lawrence

Cushing, Okla. (ap) — A magnitude 5.0 earthquake has shaken central Oklahoma.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported the earthquake struck at 7:44 p.m. CST, with an epicenter located 1 mile west of Cushing, about 50 miles northeast of Oklahoma City. The USGS initially stated it was a magnitude 5.3 earthquake but lowered that rating to 5.0.

The quake was felt as far away as Kansas City, Mo., and Little Rock, Ark. The Cushing Police Department reported “quite a bit of damage” from the earthquake but details were not immediately available. Photos posted to social media show piles of debris at the base of commercial buildings in the city.

Cushing, which has a population of

about 7,900, bills itself as the “Pipeline Crossroads of the World.” It is home to the Cushing Tank Farm, a massive oil storage facility that’s touted as the world’s largest.

According to USGS data, there have been 19 earthquakes in Oklahoma in the past week, including a 4.5 magnitude earthquake struck the northern part of Oklahoma last week, with an epicenter near Pawnee.

Scientists have linked Oklahoma’s sharp increase in earthquakes to the underground disposal of wastewater from oil and gas production.

The Oklahoma Corporation Commission has shut down some disposal wells and ordered a reduction in the amount of wastewater disposed of in others.

Shown is today’s weather. Temperatures are today’s highs and tonight’s lows.

In a stunning lastminute announcement, FBI director James Comey said Sunday the agency is still not recomWASHINGTON

mending charges against Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton after reviewing newly discovered emails.

In a letter to lawmakers, Comey said the FBI is standing by its original findings, made in July, that Clinton should not be prosecuted for her handling of classified information over email as

secretary of State.

“The FBI investigative team has been working around the clock to process and review a large volume of emails from a device obtained in connection with an unrelated criminal investigation,” Comey said in the letter.

“During that process we reviewed all of the communications that were to or from Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of State,” Comey wrote. “Based on our re-

Trump vs. the establishment: ‘It’s time for new leadership’

Clinton tries to keep the focus on her Republican rival’s negatives

David Jackson

Heidi M. Przybyla

WILMINGTON, N. C. The anti-establishment outsider who threatens to upend the political system has his own plane emblazoned with gold lettering: TRUMP. As it rolled up to a hangar in eastern North Carolina on the campaign’s final weekend, the theme from Air Force One blaring away, Donald Trump’s supporters waved signs and snapped cellphone photos while eagerly awaiting the presidential candidate’s final argument — one that targets the American political system generally and Hillary Clinton, in particular.

“To all Americans I say it’s time for change,” Trump told his backers while echoing themes he has used for more than 16 months on the campaign trail. “It’s time for new leadership.”

The New York businessman, Apprentice star, and novice politician took that message this weekend from the coast of North

PHILADELPHIA Hillary Clinton is ending her historic White House bid by arguing that it is Donald Trump’s candidacy that is truly unprecedented.

From Nevada to North Carolina and Florida to Michigan, the Democratic presidential nominee is asking Americans to “imagine” what it would be like to have the real estate billionaire occupy the Oval Office beginning in January.

“This is one of those make-orbreak moments for the United States,” Clinton told a couple thousand supporters Friday night at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.

“Imagine,” she said, that on Inauguration Day, “it is Donald Trump standing in front of the Capitol.”

In the final days of the campaign, Clinton’s closing argument is less about the finer points of her policy proposals and more that Nov. 8 amounts to a referendum on the “dark” and “divisive”

A man charged with kidnapping a 30-year-old South Carolina woman and keeping her chained in a storage shed was charged with four counts of murder Sunday in connection with a quadruple homicide that took place 13 years ago.

Todd Kohlhepp, 45, of Moore,

S.C., now is suspected in the deaths of as many as seven people, Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright said. Kohlhepp was charged Sunday in the deaths of four people at a motorcycle shop in Chesnee, S.C., in 2003.

Kohlhepp was denied bond and his next court appearance is scheduled for Jan. 19.

Kohlhepp, a real-estate agent who received his license 10 years ago, has been a registered sex offender since he was released from prison in 2001. He served a 15year kidnapping sentence for the abduction and rape of a 14-yearold neighbor in Tempe, Ariz., when he was 15.

Todd Kohlhepp enters the courtroom for a bond hearing Sunday in Spartanburg, S.C.

Authorities have been scouring his 95-acre property near Woodruff since Thursday after they discovered Kala Brown, 30, of Anderson, S.C., “chained like a dog” on the partially wooded site.

County coroner Rusty Clevenger identified the remains of her boyfriend of a few months, Charles David Carver, 32, of Anderson, on Saturday, a day after a body was dug up on the property.

Investigators took Kohlhepp to the scene Saturday and said he has confessed to the murders of Carver and the four for whom he’s been charged.

Families of some of Kohlhepp’s alleged victims comforted each

other Sunday as he stood before the Spartanburg County magistrate Jimmy Henson.

Dressed in an orange jumpsuit and acknowledging only the magistrate and law-enforcement officers, the short-haired, 5-foot-11, 300-pound man was told he could face the death penalty.

Kohlhepp quietly answered “yes sir” or “no sir” to Henson’s questions. Asked if he wanted to make a statement to victims’ families, he said, “Not at this time, sir.

Donald Trump campaigns in Wilmington, N.C.

Hillary Clinton speaks Saturday in Pembroke Pines, Fla.

gration policies that currently permit “open borders.” He pledges to curtail “government corruption” with a program that includes restrictions on lobbying by ex-government officials and term limits for members of Congress. He vows to repeal Obamacare and “rebuild our badly depleted military.”

Above all, however, Trump is selling himself: An “outsider” businessman who will shake up a “failed” political establishment.

“At the heart of this election is a simple question,” Trump told backers Sunday in Sioux City, Iowa.

“Will our country be governed by the people or will it be governed by the corrupt political class? We’re going to find out very soon.”

The candidate also found himself rewriting the script as he crossed the country Sunday, reacting to an FBI disclosure that — as the bureau first announced in July — it would not recommend charges against Clinton over her use of private email while at the State Department, a flap that has fueled Trump’s campaign in recent days.

While Trump did not specifically cite the FBI announcement during an airport rally in Minneapolis, he did tell supporters: “You have to understand: It’s a rigged system and she’s protected.”

The Clinton campaign and Trump’s many other critics have no doubt he would radically overhaul the government — and that’s the problem.

The results would include expensive trade wars with economic competitors and heightened tensions with other countries, Trump’s opponents say. They warn that an “unstable” and volatile person such as Trump should not be allowed near the nuclear button.

“Imagine how easily it could be that Donald Trump would feel insulted and start a real war — not just a Twitter war — at 3 o’clock in the morning,” Clinton herself

ers that after reviewing the communications, the bureau was not changing its conclusions from July that no criminal charges should be filed.

“We’re glad that this matter is resolved,” Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri told reporters aboard the campaign’s plane Sunday.

Trump, the Democratic nominee says, demeans women and minorities; mocks people with disabilities; owes hundreds of millions of dollars to foreign banks; would bring back “trickledown economics” benefiting the rich; has a hot temper that could start a nuclear war; and might not respect the democratic tradition of honoring the election outcome.

Her surrogates are also laying out the stakes: “Basic human decency is on the ballot Nov. 8,” Katie McGinty, the Pennsylvania Democratic candidate for Senate, said at a Philadelphia concert Saturday night.

The strategy of going on offense caps a campaign that’s taken personal insults to a new low and features candidates who are highly unpopular by historical standards.

Despite a convention in July in Philadelphia that emphasized her biography of helping children and families and that improved her favorability numbers — they remain around 46% as of late October, around 20 points lower than Barack Obama’s in November 2008.

Hence hitting Trump is probably a more effective means of turning out core Democratic voters — especially African Americans and Millennials — than trying to excite them about the specifics of her ideas.

The race is tightening in the homestretch of the campaign, both nationally and in battlegrounds like New Hampshire, where Trump appears to have erased Clinton’s earlier advantage.

told supporters this weekend in Pittsburgh.

To Trump’s many fans, his lack of government experience is an asset.

“I love the fact he’s not a politician,” said Pat Bullock, 55, a retired office manager from Wilmington who waited for the arrival of Trump Force One. “I love the fact he’s a business person.”

She added: “Anybody but Hillary — I’d take an asteroid over Hillary.”

Trump’s original political message, Make America Great Again — he copyrighted the phrase shortly after the 2012 election — applies to any number of Trump promises.

Jobs will come back if the U.S. negotiates better trade deals, Trump says. Illegal immigration will be stopped by a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border (which Mexico would supposedly pay for, though officials in that country insist that won’t happen). Trump has also vowed to block refugees from Syria and other Middle East countries, citing fears of terrorism.

However, analysts argue that industrial jobs disappeared because of automation — not trade — and changing trade agreements, or voiding them outright, will only increase costs for everybody, including consumers. His immigration policies, they say, would also block legal migrants, undercutting the economy.

The campaign says a new “Clinton Coalition” is beginning to take shape — and it includes large numbers of Latinos, Asians, suburban women, African Americans and Millennials. These groups, said campaign manager Robby Mook, amount to a “firewall against a Trump victory.”

Clinton is maintaining her lead in most of the states she would need to reach the 270 electoral votes needed to win, including Virginia, Colorado and across much of the Rust Belt.

“The map has been consistent for us,” campaign chairman John Podesta told reporters Friday aboard Clinton’s campaign plane.

Yet their concerns, particularly about African-American turnout and maintaining President Obama’s winning coalition, are clear.

Clinton is jetting to Michigan, a state that had been considered safe, twice in the final days of her sprint.

She spent her evenings in recent days at large rallies headlined by pop stars, including Pharrell Williams in North Carolina, Beyonce and Jay-Z in Cleveland and Katy Perry in Philadelphia.

“The race will come down to African-American voter intensity in Philly, Cleveland, Charlotte, and Miami,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center.

Hillary Clinton appears on stage with Katy Perry during a getout-the-vote concert on Saturday in Philadelphia.

ton aide Huma Abedin.

The announcement, as voters prepare to head to the polls Tuesday, added more drama to an already turbulent campaign season.

Clinton was en route to Cleveland on Sunday when Comey issued his letter.

Aboard her plane, aides were seen sharing the letter on their wireless devices. Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri came to the back of the plane where the news media sits to discuss the letter.

“We are glad to see that he has found — and we were confident that he would — that he has confirmed the conclusion he reached in July; and we’re glad that this matter is resolved,” she told reporters.

The campaign appeared to signify it would not gloat over the announcement; Palmieri declined to answer questions as she customarily does.

In a speech later Sunday at the Cleveland Public Auditorium, Clinton made no mention of the FBI announcement or — notably — Trump. Her remarks were far more positive than the stump speech she’s been delivering in recent days.

“I know there’s a lot of frustration, even anger, in this election

Justice Department said it had “dedicated all necessary resources to conduct this review expeditiously.”

season,” said Clinton, but anger is not a plan.

Clinton’s commanding 11-point lead after the final debate with Republican Donald Trump in Las Vegas has narrowed to 4 to 5 points nationally in the aftermath of Comey’s late October announcement. She’s seen Trump close in on her in states like New Hampshire and Michigan, where she’d once enjoyed a comfortable lead.

Though there is no way to tell how much of that is related to the announcement — versus a natural tightening of the race — the campaign has privately worried that the surprise announcement would badly damage their attempts to court Republicans disillusioned with Trump.

Campaigning in Minnesota,

Trump did not specifically mention Comey’s announcement but appeared to allude to it.

Clinton is “protected by a rigged system,” he said. “She shouldn’t be allowed to run for president.”

Comey’s brief written notice to Congress on Sunday was issued after consultation with Attorney General Loretta Lynch, a federal law enforcement official said.

The official who is not authorized to comment publicly said both sides agreed on the conclusion, which was reached earlier Sunday. The official said the investigative team that conducted the initial inquiry into Clinton’s handling of classified information as secretary of State worked night and day to review hundreds of thousands of communications as part of the new review.

The official said many of the communications involved in the new review were duplicates of emails analyzed during the initial inquiry.

In a brief written statement Sunday, the Justice Department said it had “dedicated all necessary resources to conduct this review expeditiously.”

Since notifying congressional leaders of the new review Oct. 28, Comey had been the target of withering criticism for departing from long-standing Justice De-

partment policy against taking politically charged actions in close proximity to an election.

Among the sharpest rebukes came from former attorney general Eric Holder who was among nearly 100 former Justice officials who expressed their objections in a letter circulated last week.

Comey’s original decision to notify federal lawmakers of the new review went against Lynch’s advice.

The FBI’s action also exposed deep rifts within the bureau as agents not only pursued questions about Hillary Clinton’s emails but also about a nowstalled preliminary inquiry involving the Clinton Foundation.

Supporters awaiting Clinton’s campaign appearance Sunday in Cleveland greeted the news with a mix of relief and concern.

“He just threw it out there without any examination,” Bonnie Weinstein, a 49-year-old interior decorator visiting from New Mexico, said of Comey’s late October announcement. “I was very concerned because, when you have accusations like that, you have to be really sure,” she said.

“I think there’s been definitely an effect” on Clinton’s support. “I hope now that the news is not too late,” Weinstein said.

SAN FRANCISCO The media is looking at election night with a whole new view.

The Super Bowl of politics — the election of a president on Tuesday — culminates months of around-the-clock campaigning, coverage and carping among surrogates for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

All that remains is live election-night coverage, where the digital electoral map will be rendered in blue and red, and pollsters and pundits explain why.

But there’s a new twist to traditional coverage this year. Cord cutters, Millennials and millions of mobile device users have an alternative to network news and cable-TV news operations. Elections can be covered by anyone and present a “once-every-fouryears opportunity in media,” says Tom Nunan, a lecturer at the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.

“Can streaming channels offer something different than talking heads?” Nunan says. The emergence of CNN and MSNBC upended the traditional order decades ago, setting a precedence for disruption. “Cable proved to be a reliable alternative to the three (networking) dinosaurs (ABC, CBS and NBC).”

A handful of ambitious productions mark the latest changes in a technology that rapidly evolved with YouTube, six-second clips on Vine and fledgling live-streaming services like Meerkat and Periscope.

The calculus changed dramatically with the emergence this year of Facebook Live. As with Twitter’s Periscope, users broad-

Facebook has dramatically changed election coverage.

cast breaking events — from attempted coups to demonstrations to police shootings — but to Facebook’s much larger audience.

That live-streaming technology will no doubt be used to great effect next week, especially given the way social media has played an unusually pivotal role in both candidates’ campaigns.

Tuesday night’s grand experiment in news dissemination could also portend a major shift in how must-see events such as presidential elections, awards ceremonies and sports contests are covered in an increasingly digital age, says Brian Wieser, senior analyst at Pivotal Research, an equity research firm.

“It’s an inexpensive way to reach viewers on a broad scale (via Facebook Live) to promote one’s brand,” Wieser says.

Longer-term, he sees the broadcasts as a vehicle to eventually entice advertisers who have left mainstream media over the years for the Internet and social media.

To be sure, TV remains king.

Network and cable TV amassed viewership of 66.8 million during 2012 election night, according to Nielsen, and experts predict an even bigger audience Tuesday.

But for those who are looking for something a little different, a few live-streaming candidates: uYouTube. A full roster of media operations — NBC News, PBS, MTV News, Bloomberg, Telemundo, Complex News and The Young Turks — are among the

news channels beaming results and news live via YouTube. uFacebook-ABC News.

One of the nation’s leading toy superstore chains is planning a post-Thanksgiving shopping marathon that may force rivals to rethink their holiday plans.

Shoppers will be able to head straight from the Thanksgiving dinner table to Toys R Us, where it will unlock its doors at 5 p.m. and keep them open for 30 hours straight.

The toy retailer says that once stores open, most of its stores won’t close until 11 p.m. on Black Friday. The move shows that while a small group of malls and retailers are staying shut, citing concerns about employee morale and diluted sales, the trend to kick off the holiday shopping frenzy is not fading away.

“Our customers have voted at the doors year after year, and they continue to want the option to get an early start on their holiday shopping lists,” Joe Venezia, executive vice president, global store operations, for Toys R Us, said in a statement.

Black Friday was traditionally the day reserved for so-called “doorbuster” specials, deep discounts on popular items designed to build store traffic early in the day. But Walmart has been flinging the doors open on Thanksgiving since 1988, and in recent years, a growing number of retailers have followed suit. This year, Macy’s will open at 5 p.m. on Thanksgiving, an hour earlier than it did in 2015. And Kohl’s will open on the holiday at 6 p.m.

Still, there has been some backlash. BestBlackFriday.com, which highlights bargains, found in a recent poll that 54.6% of those surveyed didn’t like or strongly disliked retailers being open on Thanksgiving, and 60.2% said they wouldn’t shop that day.

4 states to vote on minimum-wage hike Ariz., Colo., Maine would rise to $12; Washington to $13.50 Paul Davidson @Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

Voters in four states on Tuesday will consider ballot initiatives to raise the minimum wage, threatening to widen the disparity between the growing number of jurisdictions that have lifted their pay floors and the rest of the country.

In Arizona, Colorado and Maine, state hourly minimums would rise to $12 by 2020 from a range of $7.50 to $8.31. In Washington, the pay floor would climb from $9.47 to $13.50 over the next four years. Polls in the four states generally show solid majorities supporting the measures.

A sweep would widen the gap between the 29 states — with 60% of the U.S. workforce — that

now have base wages higher than the federal government’s $7.25 an hour, and the 21 states that remain at the U.S. minimum, according to the National Employment Law Project, a worker advocacy group.

In the past couple of years, about 20 states and dozens of cities and counties have approved gradual increases in their pay floors through legislation or ballot initiatives as Republicans in Congress have blocked efforts to raise the federal minimum.

“This is about states taking matters into their own hands,” says Judy Conti, federal advocacy coordinator for the NELP Action Fund, the group’s policy advocacy arm.

About 2 million workers in the four states voting Tuesday would be affected by an increase in their pay floors, according to NELP. Proponents of the measures say higher wages are needed to provide lower- and middle-income households a reasonable standard of living and narrow the yawning

divide between those groups and the wealthy.

Labor Secretary Thomas Perez says the increasing divergence among state minimum wages heightens the need to lift the national pay base.

“You shouldn’t have to win the geographic lottery to get access to a (higher) minimum wage,” he said in an interview.

Employers in states at the federal pay floor are at a growing disadvantage as they scramble to attract workers in a tightening labor market with a low 4.9% unemployment rate, Conti says.

But Michael Saltsman, research director for the Employment Policies Institute, which is backed by the restaurant industry, says, “The exact opposite is the case,” with businesses drawn to states with lower labor costs.

Higher minimum wages, he argues, have prodded some restaurants and retailers to cut staff or close, and to hire older, more experienced employees, closing off opportunities for teenagers and

lower-skilled adults.

“You going to make it that much more difficult for people to find jobs at the bottom end of the career ladder,” he says.

Still, Americans generally favor a higher minimum wage, according to surveys, and their views could impact key Senate races. A poll conducted by Public Policy Polling for NELP’s action fund showed voters in states such as Missouri and North Carolina switching preferences after learning of Republican Senate candidates’ opposition to raising the minimum wage.

Proponents of the hikes at least partly attribute the shift by states to the Fight for $15 campaign that has led fast-food worker strikes across the USA since 2012 and is financed by the Service Employees Union International.

Earlier this year, California and New York approved minimum wage increases to $15 an hour by 2022, joining cities such as Seattle and San Francisco.

Call it the Goop for a new generation.

With the dual launch of her clothing line, Daya, and a new lifestyle app, Zendaya added the title “entrepreneur” to her résumé Friday. The Disney Channel alum has emerged as one of young Hollywood’s most impressive names, landing in Taylor Swift’s squad, Beyonce’s Lemonade film and the forthcoming Spider-Man reboot, while building an online following with her social media activism.

Zendaya’s rise has been accompanied by an explosion of young fans who connect with the artist’s messages about diversity and equality. These fans, who wear an array of clothing sizes and may not identify as either gender, were the people Zendaya says she had in mind when designing her line. Daya features a range of unisex items, available in extended

sizes 0-22, and priced reasonably for its target audience of young buyers, topping out at $158.

“We’re making sure that we include bigger sizes,” she told USA TODAY at Daya’s NYC pop-up.

“Not every girl looks the same, that’s the truth.

“I think a lot of women feel alienated, like they’re not included. Most women around me are thick women. Those are the people I have in my family, and they should be able to have this accessible to them.”

Many celebrities start their de-

sign careers with high fashion in mind. But Zendaya, who booked a Dolce and Gabbana campaign earlier this year, explains that she’s more inspired by what people on the street are wearing.

“Often, when clothes are made, people forget about the human body that has to go in them,” she says. “Which is something I try to think about. ... How is that gonna look on her curves? How is that gonna complement someone’s shape?”

Launching alongside her clothing line is Zendaya: The App,

which gives fans a portal into her day-to-day life, featuring both free and paid-subscriber content like a “hit me back” feature that lets users send videos right to the star.

Zendaya, who has encountered racist and sexist trolls on other social platforms, also envisions the app as a safe space for her followers.

“I want (users) to be able to contact each other and talk to each other, but I want it all positive,” she says. “It’s not like Twitter or Instagram, which I love but can get a little negative sometimes.”

Many celebrities experience online hate, but for women and minorities, the deluge is worse.

Zendaya is aware of the threats, which came into focus again last month when Kim Kardashian, who has a similar app, was robbed in Paris.

“Of course, social media can be dangerous,” Zendaya says.

“What’s cool about my app is that it gives people an inside look at my life, but I get to control it ... which makes it a little safer, at least for me.

“This is literally a dream, and now I’m like: ‘I need a real store.

Let’s hurry up and do this, so we can have a real store.’ ”

Candidate sendup on SNL ‘‘Saturday Night Live’’ (9 p.m., NBC, TV-PG) has been parodying presidents since the Ford administration and continues with ‘‘The 2016 SNL Election Special.’’ Much of this will recycle and repackage sketches from this fall, featuring Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump and Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton.

Of the two, McKinnon has done a more impressive job.

In a very economical manner, McKinnon manages to telegraph notions of Clinton’s physical awkwardness and discomfort as a campaigner as well as voters’ lack of enthusiasm for a strong woman, or even a ‘‘nasty’’ one.

In playing up Trump’s bluster and often repeating the candidate’s own grammatically challenged utterances, Baldwin fails to plumb any psychological depths.

Perhaps the problem is the performer’s inability to transcend his own celebrity. He’s always Alec Baldwin. In the last debate parody, he even took out time to chastise his own brother Stephen for being a Trump supporter.

For at least a decade now, these ‘‘SNL’’ sketches have been made as much for YouTube consumption as television viewing. For my money, the best Trump videos have been made for YouTube by British actor Peter Serafinowicz (’’Shaun of the Dead’’).

In his clips, Serafinowicz has taken actual Trump speeches and interviews and has re-recorded word-for-word impressions using different voices.

He’s done a cockney Trump and a ‘‘posh’’ Trump. But he has mostly offered a slightly effeminate, breathless and exasperated voice, known as ‘‘Sassy Trump.’’

Combined with Trump’s gesticulations, manicure, cufflinks, carefully cultivated pompadour and permanent ‘‘tan,’’ the ‘‘Sassy Trump’’ clips brilliantly subvert the candidate’s hyper-macho bluster. It reminds us that in this campaign featuring the first woman nominee, it is the male contender who appears the most concerned with costume, hair and makeup.

He has actually been hiding part of his income from me and gets very defensive when I ask him where the money is going. I’ve stopped asking because it just causes fights.

Azubuike flashes potential in final exhibition

the opener, Schneider emphasized putting pressure on the opposition. And that was evident from the early going.

The Jayhawks rattled the young Ichabods, creating four turnovers on as many possessions to open the game.

“Kansas can really get out and pressure you,” Washburn coach Ron McHenry said. “We had a hard time just getting the ball entered in the offense. They are all > JAYHAWKS, 6C

KANSAS 104, EMPORIA STATE 62

I

f Washburn played the role for Kansas of a sparring partner with a strong chin, Emporia State stood in for a heavy bag, repeatedly slammed without the means to fight back.

Just as ranking a prize fighter after seeing him beat up on a stationary object makes no sense, judging heavyweight college basketball programs based on how they perform vs.

Emporia State reveals little.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not an enjoyable exhibition to watch, particularly when the basketball has been lobbed in the air and KU freshman center Udoka Azubuike, a 17-year-old 7-footer with extra-long arms, sure hands and an ability to track the ball well, is in the vicinity.

Kansas dunked the ball a dozen times during Sunday night’s 102-64 rout of Emporia State, and half of those were flushed by Azubuike, including four in the second half.

His favorite?

“Pretty much the dunk where I just caught it out of nowhere and I just got the crowd hyped up,” Azubuike said. “That was nice.”

Yes, it was. So is Azubuike.

He has years to go before earning mention in the same breath as fellow Nigerians, Houston Rockets Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon and former Chiefs running back Christian Okoye, but he shares their humble, likable natures. And Azubuike has the potential to become quite famous himself.

“He’s someone that not very many people can match as far as a big body and athleticism,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “If he could continue to get better, hopefully by conference season, or midway through conference season, he could be really a good player because right now he’s so green and raw.”

Such rare raw material in so many ways.

And his humble nature will enable him to improve steadily because he won’t veer off the path by fantasizing about taking his game to the perimeter. To do so would be to stray from where he has the biggest advantage.

Teammate Carlton Bragg shared that Azubuike recently “reached up and touched the rim when his feet were still on the ground,” and added that he never played with someone who so enjoys dunking.

“You throw it anywhere and he’ll go and get it,” Bragg said. “He can jump really high, and the other day he was touching the rim and his feet were still on the ground.”

Self praised Azubuike’s effort Sunday, but also put it in context.

“Udoka is really one of the better lob catchers around. He’s good at that,” Self said. “I think he can be a really good player, but we

With 7:16 to go in the third quarter, Kansas sophomore guard McKenzie Calvert swiped a pass from Washburn’s Reagan Phelan.

The third quarter theft marked the 20th turnover forced by the Jayhawks defense, which equaled their mark in the exhibition opener against Fort Hays State last week.

In Sunday’s 81-57 victory at Allen Fieldhouse, the

Kansas women’s basketball team forced 27 turnovers — including 18 in the first half — to close out its two-game exhibition slate on a high note.

“I don’t think any team in the country has developed who they are going to be at this point in the season,” coach Brandon Schneider said. “We sure would like to establish more of a defensive identity. Just be a little harder to score against.”

After being disappointed with the defensive effort in

KANSAS GUARD SVIATOSLAV MYKHAILIUK (10) puts up an off-balance shot after being fouled by Emporia State center Bradley Fisher during the second half Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. Coach Bill Self says Mykhailiuk is one of the players on the roster showing the most improvement.

he list of Jayhawks who showed improvement from last week’s exhibition opener to Sunday’s 104-62 victory over Emporia State at Allen Fieldhouse was long.

And the areas in which Bill Self’s players improved were many.

But few Jayhawks made the Carl-Lewis leap from “eh” to “oh” like junior guard Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk. And the biggest reason for it was

because Mykhailiuk did a little bit of everything instead of relying mostly on his jump shot.

“I’ve been here two years and I know what coach wants from us and how we need to play,” said Mykhailiuk following No. 3 KU’s final tuneup for Friday’s regular season opener against Indiana in Honolulu. “I was trying to be aggressive, trying to rebound the ball, trying to play defense. I’m just trying to do a little bit of everything, whatever to help the team win.”

Although he has progressed

slowly throughout his Kansas career, the arrived-in-Lawrence-at-age-16-and-still-isjust-19 Mykhailiuk too often has allowed himself to fall into the role of jump shooter and little else. Not in this one.

Sure, the junior continued to knock down shots — 4-of-5 in the first half and 5-of-9 for the game, including 2-of-4 from three-point range — but he also made it a point to impact Sunday’s game against overmatched ESU in other ways, as well.

By halftime he had 12 points, three rebounds, three assists

and one block — in just nine minutes — and his final stat line looked just as pretty yet still did not fully illustrate just how much Mykhailiuk contributed: 16 points, four rebounds, three assists, two blocks in 21 minutes.

“Frank (Mason has) probably been our best,” said Self assessing his team’s individual performances during the two exhibitions. “But Svi’s been right there being one of our better players. I thought he played well and

Rebounding was ‘better’ in exhibition win; Vick earns start

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Never one to shy away from giving his honest opinion on any aspect of his team, Kansas basketball coach Bill Self did exactly that about KU’s 49-31 rebounding edge over Emporia State during a 104-62 Jayhawk victory Sunday night at Allen Fieldhouse in the final exhibition game of the 2016-17 season.

“It was better,” Self said of his team winning the battle of the boards, which it was unable to do last Tuesday night in a win over Washburn. “It wasn’t great, but it was better. First half, I thought our big guys really went after > KEEGAN, 3C the ball, especially on the

offensive end.”

To a man, the players who spoke with the media following Sunday’s victory said rebounding was one of the team’s major points of emphasis against the Hornets. And that showed from the opening minute of the game to the end.

While he was happy his team had paid attention and showed some pride in competing for missed shots on the glass, Self seemed most pleased that the Jayhawks battled hardest on the offensive glass. Kansas finished with 13 offensive rebounds and watched players of all sizes crash the rim and get a finger or two on a handful

Pampling wins 1st PGA title in 10 years The Associated Press

Las Vegas — The birdie putt was still a foot away from the hole when Rod Pampling raised his right arm and thrust it in the air as the ball tumbled into the cup.

His victory Sunday in Las Vegas was a long time coming.

Pampling left nothing to chance by holing a 30-foot putt on the final hole at the TPC Summerlin to close with a 6-under 65 for a two-shot victory in the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, his first PGA Tour title in 10 years.

“Sometimes you amaze yourself at what you can do under the gun, which hadn’t been for a long time,” Pampling said.

“And it was great.”

The 47-year-old Australian last won on the PGA Tour at Bay Hill in 2006. He lost his card and spent two full seasons on the Web.com Tour, and then had to return to the Web.com Tour Finals at the end of last season just to get Pampling his card back.

He was No. 451 in the world ranking.

And now Pampling is headed to Kapalua for the Tournament of Champions in January, and he’ll be returning to the Masters for the first time in 10 years.

“It’s extremely rewarding,” Pampling said. “Winning Arnold Palmer’s event is still on top. But coming back from what we’ve had the last few years, to get a win under the belt, it’s phenomenal. Amazing.”

Brooks Koepka closed with a 67 to finish second.

Lucas Glover, going for his first victory in five years, was tied with Pampling with two holes to play until he made a bogey from the bunker on the par-3 17th, and he closed with another bogey when winning was out of reach. He shot a 69 to finish third.

Francesco Molinari of Italy had a career-best 61 and tied for fourth with Geoff Ogilvy (68) and Harris English (67).

For someone who had gone so long since he last won, Pampling kept his poise even when it looked as though the final round was getting away from him. He began the back nine with two bogeys in three holes — a three-putt on No. 10, missing the green with a pitching wedge on No. 12 — and fell one shot behind Glover.

Pampling bounced back with a 12-foot birdie putt, and an 8-iron to 18 feet for birdie on the 14th to catch Glover. Pampling made a 12-foot birdie on the next hole to keep pace, and his biggest shot might have been for par.

Tied for the lead on the par-5 16th, he pushed his drive well right into rough so deep that Pampling asked to identify his ball, and it was a good thing — it wasn’t his ball. His ball was a foot to the right, buried so badly that he could only muscle it some 30 yards behind another tree, and he had to lay up short of the water. From 121 yards, Pampling hit wedge into 6 feet and saved par to stay tied.

“That was the turning point for Rod, and that was awesome,” Glover said. “He played great.”

Glover’s tee shot on the 17th was about a foot away from being good, but it caught the lip of the bunker and left a difficult shot with the green sloping away from him. He missed a 12-foot par putt and never caught up.

Pampling finished at 20-under 264 and will be exempt up until his 50th birthday when he is eligible for the PGA Tour Champions.

“After this week I still think I have a couple of more wins, so I’m looking forward to the next few years and just see what we can do,” Pampling said.

of other misses during Sunday’s whipping.

“We didn’t do that good on the glass against Washburn,” said KU freshman Josh Jackson, who scored 11 points and grabbed seven rebounds. “That was one of the keys (tonight), just focusing more on defense. A lot our guys get caught up too much thinking about offense, but our points this year are really gonna come from the defensive end.”

Jackson’s total of seven boards tied him with two other Jayhawks (Udoka Azubuike and Landen Lucas) for the team lead on Sunday.

Five other Kansas players grabbed at least three rebounds in the win.

Vick starts Self inserted sophomore guard Lagerald Vick into the starting lineup on Sunday night, electing to open with the four-guard look that KU played about a third of the time in the opener — and figures to play much more the rest of the way — instead of the more traditional twobigs-three-guards look Self has used in the past.

“Just try something different,” Self said. “Carlton’s struggled and Lagerald’s been probably as good a performer as we’ve had. To be real

candid, I wanted to practice playing small because we know, in the next two games, (Indiana and Duke) play (wings) at the (power forward) position. So that’s gonna be a lineup we play a lot, regardless of who the (other big man) is.”

Bragg struggled through his second straight exhibition game, finishing with two points, four rebounds and five turnovers before fouling out in 15 minutes.

“Carlton’s really a good player,” Self said. “He’s just in a funk. He’ll snap out of that.”

Bumps and bruises KU’s veteran backcourt of Frank Mason III and Devonte’ Graham both suffered minor injuries during Sunday’s victory. But neither the players nor Self believed either to be serious.

“He jammed his thumb the other day and then he got kicked in the shin or something tonight,” Self said of Mason. “We have to get him and Devonte’ where they can stay out there.

That’s a big key for us.”

As for Graham, his ailment came in the form of cramping, something that plagued hit a little in the win over Washburn and during both the first and second half against Emporia State.

“It seems like he’s cramping most every day now. Our nutritionist

Graham said he was not concerned about the cramps and believed it was something he could get under control.

“I don’t know, man. I just keep cramping up,” he said after Sunday’s game, noting that cramps

had not been a problem in practice. “I’m about to talk to the nutritionist.

Just hydrate more, I guess.

Eat some bananas. I really think it’s I’m probably not eating enough, not getting enough, whatever it is, potassium, or whatever.”

we shouldn’t be giddy about catching lobs because in reality when you get into league play or the next week that

he showed some athletic ability tonight.”

A single possession midway through Sunday’s second half best demonstrated the role Mykhailiuk played so well against the Hornets.

He was equal parts unselfish, aggressive and under control and mixed in all of the intangibles Self loves to see.

After catching the ball at the top of the key on a ball reversal, Mykhailiuk faked a shot and fired a pass to the post. Floating instead of standing and watching, Mykhailiuk drifted in front of the KU bench, where he received a kick-out pass for an even better look. This one he took.

It missed, but Mykhailiuk kept playing. After chasing the offensive rebound, he raced back in transition defense, stalked his man to the basket and blocked a shot from behind. All of this with Kansas leading 73-43 with just under 11

minutes to play in the blowout victory.

“That’s what coach has been trying to get him to do, just to be more aggressive, not only shooting the ball, but being in the paint and making plays for himself and others,” junior Devonte’ Graham said after the victory. “I like how he played tonight, he’s just gotta keep it up.”

That last thought perfectly summed up the general takeaway from the team’s final test before KU opens the season for real with back-to-back games against No. 11 Indiana and No. 1 Duke in a five-day span.

Displeased with the effort in the exhibition opener against Washburn last Tuesday night, Self was much more accepting of the team that took the floor on Sunday night.

What that means for Friday and how different this group will be when it faces the Hoosiers in Honolulu remains to be seen. But, if nothing else, Self was appreciative of the fact that his players responded to most of the challenges thrown

Chiefs overcome injurious odds in 19-14 win SCOREBOARD

By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Their starting quarterback and running back never dressed, their top wide receiver joined them on the sideline with an injury of his own, and their Pro Bowl tight end was ejected by an official who didn’t seem to think his antics were very funny.

Good thing for the Kansas City Chiefs that everything was status quo on defense.

That stout bunch kept Blake Bortles in check most of the afternoon, then stuffed the Jacksonville Jaguars on fourth down with less than 2 minutes remaining deep in their own territory, preserving a 19-14 win on Sunday made even more impressive by the long odds the Chiefs overcame. “That’s what football is all about. You’re going to have weeks where you have injuries,� said Nick Foles, who started in place of injured quarterback Alex Smith. “You have to step up and make plays.�

Foles threw for 187 yards and a first-half touchdown toss to Albert Wilson, and helped to set up four field goals

by Cairo Santos, as Kansas City (6-2) won its 10th consecutive home game.

Meanwhile, the Jaguars (2-6) couldn’t overcome four turnovers — including a fumble at the goal line in the fourth quarter — in their first game with

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS WIDE RECEIVER ALBERT WILSON (12) makes a touchdown catch during the first half of an NFL football game against the Jaguars Sunday in Kansas City, Mo. quarterback coach Nathaniel Hackett directing the offense.

Bortles was 22 of 41 for 252 yards and two touchdowns with a pick, showing little improvement after a week spent with his personal coach, Adam Dedeaux . His wide receivers hardly helped him, dropping several passes, including an early fourth-down throw that cost Jacksonville a chance at points. “I thought Nathaniel called a great game,� Bortles said. “To run for 200 yards and throw for 200, or whatever, I thought it was awesome. If you look at the stat sheet minus the

turnovers there’s no way you say Kansas City won.

But unfortunately, that’s part of the game.�

Chris Ivory rumbled for 107 yards in the biggest bright spot for Jacksonville, but he fumbled going over the goal-line with 8:28 left in the game.

The Jaguars quickly got the ball back, and Bortles hit T.J. Yeldon to get within 19-14 with 4:10 to go, but the extra time it took to score proved costly.

They got the ball back with 3:01 remaining, and a long scamper by Bortles gave them a chance. But his pass on fourth-and-3 at the Kansas City 32 was

batted to the ground and the Chiefs ran out the clock. “We had four turnovers and when you do that, any game in the NFL is hard to win,� Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said. “And for us, we did it at critical times.�

The Chiefs played the whole way without Smith and starting running back Spencer Ware, who were out with head injuries, and offensive guard Parker Ehinger, who went on injured reserve with a knee injury.

Wide receiver Jeremy Maclin hurt his groin on the Chiefs’ first series and did not return, and tight end Travis Kelce was tossed from the game in the fourth quarter after arguing over a pass interference no-call, then tossing his towel at the official as if it was a flag. “As soon as the ref took off his hat (to throw), I knew I was out. Felt like an idiot,� he said. “It was a terrible decision, but just have to learn from it and keep going.�

What did Kelce learn from it? “I can’t throw my flag at the ref,� he replied. “He can throw his all day long.�

athletic at that guard spot.”

However, it did not lead to points. At least not at first.

Kansas settled for jump shots for much of the first period, as it traded buckets with Washburn in the opening quarter. Then in the final minute of the first, the Jayhawks defensive unit stepped up on consecutive possessions.

With 55 seconds to go, Washburn was called for a five-second violation underneath their own basket.

Calvert then went down and got her first points on a layup, giving Kansas a four-point advantage.

On the next trip, the Ichabods were flustered into an errant pass that soared out of bounds. Junior guard Jessica Washington drew contact on her way to the hoop afterward, sinking both her free throws to close out a 10-point first period, giving her squad a 21-14 lead.

“I always like to be in that zone,” said Washington, who scored a gamehigh 21 points. “I do realize whenever I’m on, I have to be aware of that.

But with my teammates stepping up on defense, it allows me to get those open looks.”

Kansas continued to

create suffocating pressure as the lead grew larger for the remainder of the contest.

The Jayhawks accumulated 32 points off turnovers on the afternoon.

Calvert led the way with four steals and sophomore guard Aisia Robertson notched three thefts.

Seven other KU players logged a steal as well.

“I take a lot of pride on defense,” Robertson said.

“I think that sets the tone for the rest of the team.

When I’m guarding the ball, I have to make her put her head down so she can’t run her team.”

Roberston came off the bench and dropped 14 points in 14 minutes of action. Sophomore guard Kylee Kopatich joined her and Washington in double-digits with 12 points, including 2-of-2 from deep.

“The big thing for (Aisia) this year is she understands her game,” Schneider said.

Now the Jayhawks will turn their attention to the regular season after sweeping exhibition play.

The confidence is high as the team looks to put last year’s 6-25 finish behind them.

“It gave the world a view of what Kansas is like this year,” Robertson said.

Kansas will play host to Missouri State at 2 p.m.

Sunday.
