School task force hopes for budget ruling soon

Almost three decades after Randy Leach’s disappearance, his grieving parents are no closer to knowing what really happened to their boy

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

A special task force established by the 2014 Kansas Legislature plans to finalize a report next month suggesting ways public schools could be more efficient with the money they receive from the state.

But while members of that group engaged in sharp debate Friday over issues affecting relatively small sums of money, many officials are anxiously awaiting a court ruling that could order the Legislature to add hundreds of millions of SCHOOLS dollars in education spending.

The case still pending before a threejudge panel is the second — and possibly the largest — part of a school finance Please see BUDGET, page 2A

HAROLD AND ALBERTA LEACH, OF RURAL LINWOOD, have had 26 years of sleepless nights wondering what happened to their son, Randy, pictured in the framed photograph on the table. Randy, then a high school senior, disappeared in 1988, along with the family’s car, after attending a party. He would now be 44.

Law enforcement’s failure to unseal records, share leads in case deepens family’s grief

By Karen Dillon Twitter: @karensdillon

For the first few years, Harold and Alberta Leach kept hoping their missing son, Randy, would come home.

Twenty-six years have passed since the high school senior and the family car vanished from a graduation party, but the Linwood parents still want to find their only child.

They’re desperate to know whether law enforcement left no stone unturned in the search for Randy, in part because they’ve felt for

years that investigators were secretive, refusing to keep them abreast of developments. But law enforcement agencies refuse to release the records, citing an ongoing investigation, even the broad outlines of which they decline to reveal.

The Leaches’ desire for information is only stronger since they learned earlier this year that law enforcement, including the KBI and the FBI, had had a suspect in the 1990s who died in prison four years ago.

here are perks to being the principal of Lawrence’s Liberty Memorial Central Middle School. Having business cards the size of a Trapper Keeper to accommodate your school’s name perhaps is not one of them.

But giving tours to other school district employees, now that is fun. They come in from other buildings spread throughout the district, and LMCMS (I’ll buy a vowel, please) Principal Jeff Harkin gladly shows them around. One place always gets featured on the tour: the balcony of the school’s auditorium.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

lawsuit the Kansas Supreme Court only partially decided earlier this year when it ordered additional money for socalled “equalization” aid to level out the funding between rich and poor school districts.

But it remanded back to the three-judge trial court the part of the case challenging the overall adequacy of school funding, with instructions to reconsider that issue using a different standard.

In its original verdict in 2012, the panel had said the state needed to increase the base state aid formula to $4,492 per pupil. According to the Kansas Department of Education, that would cost an additional $439 million per year.

Following the Su-

preme Court’s order, the trial judges held a new hearing on the adequacy question in August, and people familiar with the litigation said this week that they had expected a decision in late August. They now believe a decision will likely come within a matter of days.

Lawmakers meanwhile responded to the Supreme Court’s first decision by adding the money the court had ordered, along with many new education policy changes, such as repeal of teacher tenure rights and a tax incentive for corporations to donate to private school scholarship funds.

In addition, anticipating the next decision on adequacy, they established the K-12 Student Performance and Efficiency Commission, which has been meeting since the Legislature adjourned to study ways schools can be

Established in Tradition

See more deaths, 7A more efficient with the funding they receive.

That group met again Friday in the Statehouse, and the members plan to finalize their recommendations by Dec. 15.

A draft list of recommendations released in September called for, among other things, further study of ways school districts could combine and regionalize their administrative structures and conducting an efficiency audit of the Kansas Department of Education.

But during discussion Friday, there was heated debate over a survey that was sent out recently to school superintendents, as well as teachers and staff, asking about their local budget policies and ideas they might have for making their own local districts more efficient.

Dave Trabert, head of the conservative think tank Kansas Policy Institute, said he

was frustrated that not all superintendents responded to the survey.

He also criticized policies reported by some districts of allowing the presidents of local teachers unions to receive full pay for the time spent away from class attending to union business.

But other panel members were critical of the survey itself, saying it had never been authorized, or even talked about, by the full commission. It was authorized by the chairman, Wichita businessman Sam Williams, at Trabert’s personal request.

Bev Mortimer, superintendent of the Concordia school district who also serves on the panel, said her district was one of those that did not complete the survey.

“I wanted an explanation about why the information was being collected,” she said.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Kansas consumers signing up for health insurance on the federally-run online marketplace will pay about the same next year, a new report shows.

The average premium for all plans offered in the marketplace changed very little — an increase of just 0.1 percent from 2014 to 2015, according to a report by the Kansas Health Institute, a nonpartisan health policy and research organization. As signup for President Barack Obama’s health law began a second year, the report found much larger swings in the price consumers pay for specific plans, with some costing nearly 11 percent less and others 13 percent more.

The number of Kansas plans available for individuals and small groups on the federal exchange was growing from 72 in 2014 to 82 in 2015, said Bob Hanson, a spokesman for the Kansas Insurance Department. Sixty-four of this year's plans are for individuals, down from 65 in 2014. Another 18 are for small businesses, up from seven in 2014.

Four insurers from last year are again offering coverage, and the entrance of a fifth provider offering low rates was helping to keep average premiums stable, said LeAnn Bell, a senior analyst for the Kansas Health Institute.

The rates consumers pay varied based on where they live, with costs lower in the eastern half of the state, according to the KHI analysis of 2015 marketplace data.

For instance, individuals in a 17-county area that includes Wichita paid as little as $185 per month for a middle-of-the-road plan, while consumers in a 25-county area in the northwest part of the state paid $218 per month for a similar plan.

Because some plans are only available in limited geographic areas of the state, the typical consumer will have 30 to 35 plans from which to choose, said Sheldon Weisgrau, the director of the Health Reform Resource Project, an education-focused organization. He said that when consumers feel overwhelmed with options, they tend to avoid making changes. But consumers who signed up for insurance on the exchange last year are being urged to take another look to determine if their plan is still the best option.

"They really should shop around," he said.

Record request in rape case is matter of trust It’s always awkward for a news organization to write about a story it’s involved in, to be part of the news.

That’s been the case as we filed a motion to intervene in a Douglas County rape case in the interest of open records.

I want to take a few Julie Wright minutes to explain why is managing we thought it was im- editor of the portant to insert our- Journal-World. selves into the legal proceeding.

For 30-some years in Kansas, the documents that law enforcement officials file with courts to win the right to arrest someone or to search their property have been closed records. This year the Kansas Legislature changed the law, and now the presumption is that those records, arrest warrant and search warrant affidavits, are open to any member of the public who seeks them.

The idea is that the public and the people charged with crimes have a right to know on what grounds law enforcement seeks to deprive people of their liberty or privacy. The public needs to be sure that government prosecutes or jails people only with good reason, and they can only be sure of that if the reasoning is made public.

Since the law went into effect July 1, the Journal-World has routinely requested each of these arrest warrant affidavits. So far, we’ve requested 15.

Three were sealed, meaning judges decided not to release them in spite of the new law. Four were released after they were redacted; one was released without redactions; and we are awaiting word on five.

We had concerns about the sealed affidavits. Judge Sally Pokorny, at the request of the prosecution and defense, sealed the affidavit for Carlton Grass, who is accused in an alleged rape this summer in downtown Lawrence.

2 arrested in alleged rape at Haskell Staff Reports

Two men were arrested Saturday on suspicion of raping a woman in a Haskell Indian Nations University dormitory, according to Lawrence police.

About 4:45 a.m., police responded to reports of a sexual assault at the campus, 155 E. Indian Ave. A woman there reported being forcibly raped by two suspects who were known to her, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, police spokesman.

Police located the two men, ages 19 and 20, on campus and took them into custody Saturday afternoon. They were booked into the Douglas County Jail on suspicion of forcible rape, aggravated criminal sodomy and criminal restraint.

The two were being held without bond Saturday evening. The victim was transported to an area medical facility for treatment, McKinley said.

Leach CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

That suspect, Eric Montgomery, also had been a suspect in two 1990 homicides that occurred 7 miles from the Leaches’ home.

In a hearing and subsequent trial, Montgomery testified that the FBI and the KBI had considered him a suspect in the disappearance of Randy Leach, according to court transcripts obtained by the Lawrence JournalWorld through an open records request.

In the two homicides that occurred near Linwood, Montgomery told authorities he had helped two killers by hiding the bodies in barrels and tossing them in the Missouri River. The bodies were never found.

The Leaches had heard about those cases through news reports. But law enforcement officials never told them that someone involved was a suspect in the disappearance of their son.

Harold Leach, now 73, said he was saddened when he found out law enforcement had withheld information from him and his wife.

“No one ever said a word about this to us,” he said.

After learning about Montgomery, the Leaches want to review law enforcement investigation records to determine what detectives have done over almost three decades.

The couple has long contended that detectives failed to talk to important witnesses. Law enforcement hasn’t given them an update on the case in years, the Leaches said.

“We just want to see what’s been done,” Alberta Leach said. “We have done a lot of stuff to find Randy, and we just want

to make sure they did, too. We know they didn’t do some of the things they said they were going to do.”

The Leaches have been unable to see the records.

The KBI and Leavenworth County sheriff’s deputies say they are still investigating the case and have refused requests from the parents and the Lawrence Journal-World to release them.

The Legislature approved the closing of such records to the public in the 1970s, leaving it up to a law enforcement agency to decide whether to release them. They almost never do.

What is being investigated after all this time is unknown even to Leav-

enworth County Attorney Todd Thompson.

Thompson said that no KBI agents or Leavenworth County deputies have even mentioned Randy Leach since Thompson took office six years ago.

“Honestly if we had something we could do we would,” Thompson said. “There has never been a discussion with me about this case.”

In response to the Journal-World’s request for records, Laura Graham, KBI general counsel wrote: “While I understand the curiosity that led to your request, our position remains...We will not permit your review of the KBI’s criminal investigation records.

Regardless of how old criminal investigation records are ... they often contain sensitive material that ultimately has been determined irrelevant to a case.”

Tai Vokins, a civil rights attorney who has an unrelated legal dispute with the state over release of criminal records, said its important for the public to have access to criminal records so they can determine whether law enforcement agencies are doing their jobs.

“It’s bull,” Vokins said.

“Nothing bad could come from releasing the records. We either see (law enforcement) has done a great job or there are changes made for the better. I don’t see why they are so reluctant.”

Strange rumors From the time Randy Leach disappeared from the party with his mother’s 1985 gray Dodge 600, the Leaches’ relationship with law enforcement has sometimes been contentious.

They say, for example, that law enforcement hasn’t taken some of the clues seriously enough, failed to interview some witnesses and refused to hold an inquisition.

Law enforcement officials have acknowledged they were slow to act initially because of a mandatory 24-hour waiting period to begin searching for a missing person unless there was clear evidence of foul play.

Even after the investigation got underway, investigators tended to believe there was a good chance that the 17-yearold honor student might have just gone off on a spree or maybe had a fight at home and ran away, which may have dampened the initial response, said former Leavenworth County prosecutor Frank Kohl.

Two years after Randy Leach disappeared, Kohl was criticized for not holding an inquisition, which would have given prosecutors a chance to question witnesses under oath. He and sheriff officials said they didn’t think an inquisition would draw any more information from witnesses.

Deputies, however, apparently acknowledged that they hadn’t conducted interviews of witnesses under oath because of conflicting schedules and a heavy caseload during the two-year investigation, according to news articles.

Some rumors about Leach’s demise seem to have leaped from the pages of a Stephen King novel. Among the bits of gossip was that Leach had fallen prey to devil worshipers, was held hostage for a time and eventually sacrificed. The house where the pre-graduation party was held actually burned to the ground not long after Leach disappeared.

Gov. Joan Finney is-

sued an executive order in 1991 offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of a perpetrator.

Every few years, a Leavenworth County sheriff would announce the reopening the Leach case. Investigators would reinterview kids who were at the party who had grown into adults with jobs and families and even lived in other parts of the country.

If law enforcement gleaned any information about Leach’s disappearance, they never reported it to the public.

In 2001, the Leaches had their son declared legally dead.

‘A very scary guy’ In April 2014, Kim Srubas, Patrick Santoyo and Danielle Fergus were at a bar in Kansas City, Kan., and the topic of missing people came up.

Leach was never far from Kim Srubas’ mind.

She attended Linwood Elementary School in 1991 and 1992, and Leach’s disappearance and rumors of satanic cults had left her and many students puzzled and worried. The three decided to surf the Internet to see if they could find any information about Leach.

Srubas was surprised when she quickly found court records that tied Leach to Montgomery and a convicted killer, Sherrell Gary Brinkley.

Srubas had never heard or read this information before.

They decided to contact the Leaches to see if they had been told about Montgomery. They had not.

The newest Leach mystery opens in 1987 with Everett “Skeet” Bishop, whose family owns a lumber business in Bonner Springs.

Leach CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4A

Bishop was living alone just a few miles from the Leaches in the home he grew up in.

Former prosecutor Kohl said Bishop, who did not have a criminal background, had an attraction for dangerous men and had complained to a friend who was in prison that some teens were “terrorizing” him by shooting at his house.

He told the friend, Jerry Singer, that he feared for his life.

Singer had been in prison with Montgomery, so he called him. Montgomery was now living in northeast Kansas City, Mo. According to court records, Singer asked Montgomery for a favor: protect Bishop from the hoodlums.

Bishop and Montgomery became good friends.

“Bishop was a thrill seeker,” Kohl said.

“Montgomery was an excon and spun some wonderful stories about doing dangerous things.”

If you believed Montgomery’s tales and court records, he was dangerous. He had several felony convictions and had been confined in a state hospital and received shock treatment in the 1950s, according to his testimony as a prosecution witness in a murder trial in 1993.

Montgomery also said he had beaten people, killed a man allegedly in self-defense and killed while he was in the military in Vietnam in the late 1950s “before anyone knew we were in Vietnam.”

“He was a very scary guy,” said Gary Fuller, the defense attorney in that case. “During the trial he talked about people he killed. He never murdered anyone. It was always ‘self-defense.’”

Bishop was a “convenient” friend for Montgomery because he could buy guns and ammunition, according to court records.

Montgomery had another friend, Sherrell Gary Brinkley. Brinkley met Montgomery while in prison for bank robbery.

After getting out, Brinkley got a job in the technology field making about $80,000 a year. But he loved stealing expensive cars, and was asked why he stole cars when he made so much money.

“I can tell you why I did it... there was the thrill and the adrenaline rush,” Brinkley testified during a murder trial.

Bishop and Montgomery had another friend, Lloyd Folsom, who also had a criminal background, authorities said.

Folsom was from Prairie Village and liked mules and gambling.

He boarded his mules at Bishop’s farm, according to court records.

In April 1990, almost two years after Leach disappeared, Folsom, 52, vanished.

A month later, Bishop, who was last seen by a lumber employee at his farm not too far from the Leach home, disappeared,

Three missing men Leavenworth County sheriff’s detectives were still deep into the Leach case when Bishop and Folsom went missing.

But the KBI joined the search for Bishop and pieced together Bishop’s relationship with Montgomery. When they went to Montgomery’s home in Kansas City to talk to him July 5, 1990, they discovered a stolen car and began putting together the Montgomery-Brinkley relationship.

Montgomery went to the KBI’s Overland Park office on July 10. By then the KBI already considered him a suspect in the disappearance of Leach and Folsom, according to court transcripts.

During his conversation with KBI Special Agent Bill Delaney, Montgomery said he had recently talked to FBI agent Loren McKee about the Leach disappearance.

The transcripts do not detail Montgomery’s interview with McKee. The KBI couldn’t crack the case on Bishop’s disappearance. Almost two years later, the KBI offered Brinkley immunity if he would testify against Montgomery, Brinkley’s attorney Fuller told the Journal-World.

Brinkley refused, and the KBI made the same offer to Montgomery, Fuller said.

Montgomery accepted, saying he was tired of constant surveillance by law enforcement and feared Brinkley wanted to “feed him to the alligators,” court records said.

Montgomery said Brinkley, who had only met Bishop a couple times, had given Bishop a stolen Datsun 280Z during a visit to North Carolina. But the car broke down in St. Louis while Bishop was driving it back to Kansas, and he abandoned it in a parking lot.

Brinkley became concerned that if law enforcement contacted Bishop, he would crack, Montgomery told authorities.

During a visit at Bishop’s house in Linwood, Montgomery said Brinkley and Bishop went outside to do some target shooting. Brinkley, using a Tec-9 semi-automatic handgun with a silencer from Bishop’s gun collection, shot Bishop numerous times, Montgomery told authorities.

Bishop had several metal barrels that had contained dough from a donut shop behind a barn, Montgomery told

officials. He got one of the barrels, and the men stuffed Bishop’s body into it, according to records.

The men put the barrel in the back of Bishop’s van, drove to Montgomery’s Kansas City home and Montgomery welded the lid onto the barrel, he told KBI agents.

They then drove Bishop’s body to the Missouri River near where the Ameristar Casino is today. Montgomery, using a hatchet, chopped holes in the barrel, and they threw it into the river.

Brinkley was charged with first-degree murder even though there was no body.

Brinkley had a different story to tell, according to court transcripts: Brinkley testified that Montgomery confessed to him about Folsom’s death: Montgomery and Bishop had a falling out with Folsom over a drug deal. Bishop killed Folsom at his farm and then Montgomery helped Bishop stuff Folsom in a barrel and threw him in the Missouri River.

Montgomery then killed Bishop because he was concerned that he would confess the crime to police, Brinkley said.

Brinkley also indicated that Montgomery had something to do with Leach’s disappearance.

On the stand, Montgomery said that Bishop had killed Folsom, but he said he did not know anything about Leach’s disappearance.

Law enforcement officials have said they don’t believe Bishop killed Folsom.

Fuller tried to use the missing men as part of Brinkley’s defense to discredit Montgomery’s

| 5A

story and lead the jury to believe Montgomery was the true killer.

Fuller asked to review the murder files of Leach and Folsom. The state argued that the cases were the “subject of ongoing investigations” and asked that they remain sealed.

The judge reviewed the files containing thousands of pages and concluded there was no relevant material.

Prosecutor Kohl argued to keep any mention of Leach out of the trial, saying Leach’s situation had no bearing on the trial.

The jury found Brinkley guilty, and he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. He also was found guilty on federal felony gun charges in North Carolina.

He is in a federal prison in Florida and has not responded to requests for an interview from the Journal-World. It’s unknown if KBI agents ever interviewed him about Leach’s disappearance.

‘Justice?’

In an odd turn of events, 19 years later Montgomery was arrested for aiding in the murder of Folsom.

“My client had been given immunity but no one could find the documents,” Deb Snider, Montgomery’s attorney, told the Journal-World. “I thought it was completely unfair.”

By then Montgomery was in his 70s and dying of lung cancer. He was found guilty by a jury and was sentenced to 20 months in prison. He died a few months later in 2010 in El Dorado Correctional Facility.

Officials today won’t say why they decided to go after Montgomery when so many years had passed.

Records that would reveal that are sealed in the court, a judge told the Journal-World, and law enforcement won’t turn them over.

They could be released if the defendant agreed, the judge said, but Montgomery is dead. Deb Snider, Montgomery’s attorney, also said she was prohibited by law from releasing the records. But even if she could, the issue is moot. She shreds her case files after five years.

It took a while for the outrage to build, but eventually alumni of old Liberty Memorial realized the school lost something important when it lost its name. It was a little more than four years ago when a group of residents started talking to the school board about a name change. It happened a short time later, but not without some complaints. Some felt the name would be too much of a mouthful. Those who knew the history of the building felt we probably would find a way to survive it. “I really got upset about it,� Gordon says. “You wouldn’t take the Lincoln Memorial and name it East.�

After the name was changed, a group led by Gordon, 1940 Liberty Memorial alumnus Alan Fisher and former Lawrence mayor and retired Marine Erv Hodges talked to the school district about having a special assembly each year to teach students about the history of the school. “I really just want you to remember why this building was built, and to not ever take anything for granted,� Gordon tells the students. “It was peace that these people died for, and we never want to take that for granted.�

This is the second year for the program, and Harkin says he’s looking forward to many more.

He says he’s confident the students are beginning to understand the significance of their school. It doesn’t happen all at once, but over time the students begin to understand how important this building once was in the city. World War I unleashed gas warfare on the world. Soldiers lived in terrible conditions in the mud, the blood and the muck of trench warfare. Worldwide, nearly 9 million people died in the war. And some of them were from Lawrence.

Days like this one at Liberty Memorial Central Middle School help remind us all that those names on the wall were real people. “I hope someday,�

Harkin tells the class, “you will tell people this is where I went to school, and it is a special place.�

Perhaps someday they even can provide the answer to that question that gets asked on all those school tours: How did you guys get this?

The answer: It wasn’t easy, and it certainly shouldn’t be forgotten. — Each Sunday, Lawhorn’s Lawrence focuses on the people, places or past of Lawrence and the surrounding area. If you have a story idea, send it to Chad at clawhorn@ ljworld.com.

On Friday, a group of four eighth-grade students with the Corpus Christi STEM/STEAM (science, technology, engineering, math) EXPO launched a weather balloon to learn more about the layers of the atmosphere.

Attached to the balloon was a camera to record the flight and a GPS tracking device. The weather balloon traveled about 60 miles Friday before landing on a tree trunk at Blue Springs Lake near the Lee’s Summit area.

The results and findings from the experiment will be presented Nov. 20 at the science fair at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 6001 Bob Billings Parkway.

Growing wheat is critical to addressing world hunger.â&#x20AC;?

State graduate students try to create bigger and more resilient offspring.

Poland saw children starving in India when he first traveled there years ago as a graduate student.

That motivated him to point his research toward producing a better, more nutrient-rich, more sustainable food supply. He targeted wheat, which is particularly vulnerable to climate change. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Growing wheat is critical to addressing world hunger,â&#x20AC;? he said.

About 1.2 billion poor people depend on wheat.

In South Asia, where much of Polandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work is focused, wheat yields are projected to decline 20 percent to 30 percent by 2050, according to the national Feed the Future initiative.

Tiny wheat plants fill a greenhouse in the state-ofthe-art Wheat Innovation Center, built across from K-Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football stadium by the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since the Kansas wheat farmers have gotten behind this initiative, my program gets extra support and backing,â&#x20AC;? Poland said.

That becomes clearer one floor down, where the seeds of 13,533 varieties of wheat from around the world are in cold storage.

Some are crossed with the lab wheat to create a hardier plant. Under normal conditions, it might take nearly a decade to bring a wheat crop from the lab to the farm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we are trying to speed up the process, maybe five years,â&#x20AC;? Poland said.

Five years is about how long it has been since President Barack Obama in 2009 put at least $3.5 billion in federal funds toward global food security.

By 2013, private donors pledged $18.5 million more.

The annual budget for all 15 Feed the Future sites is $32 million a year.

increase crop productivity, is the easier part,â&#x20AC;? said Gary Pierzynski, a Kansas State University researcher. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The challenge is how to get the people from these developing countries to do it.â&#x20AC;?

His work to that end, and that of others on the K-State campus, has brought $100 million in federal grants to the university to explore the varied and complicated questions of how to feed the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fast-growing population amid quickening climate change.

K-State boasts four laboratories enlisted in the U.S. governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feed the Future innovation plan.

It is an initiative to attack world hunger with better crops, smarter tactics to fight off pests and disease, more efficient distribution of harvests â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all in ways that can turn profits for small-scale farmers in the poorest parts of the world.

Of the 15 university sites where Feed the Future labs are operating, only the University of CaliforniaDavisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; five labs outnumber those at K-State. There are 25 labs in all, including ones at Michigan State University, the University of Georgia and Texas A&M University.

K-State established its labs over the last two years, winning support for each in a competitive grant process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We went after projects we thought we would be the best at,â&#x20AC;? said Timothy Dalton, the director of K-Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Collaborative Research on Sorghum and Millet. In agriculture, that includes wheat, sorghum, plant pathology, water management and agricultural economics.

This time of year, KStateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheat fields are â&#x20AC;&#x153;just mounds of dirt,â&#x20AC;? said Jesse Poland, the 33-year-old director of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feed the Future lab for Applied Wheat Genomics.

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Sunday, November 16, 2014

EDITORIALS

Confidence City commissioners need to take some time to listen to the public and find a new approach to new police facilities.

L

awrence city commissioners graciously accepted the blame for the defeat of an additional sales tax to fund a new police headquarters, but it was clear at Tuesday’s meeting that there was more than one reason the election question might have failed.

Some observers said that the no-bid contract to build the city’s new recreation center at Rock Chalk Park angered many voters and undermined their trust in the commission. Others said the negative vote was primarily focused on the fact that the project would be funded by sales tax. While either of those factors might have tipped the balance on a close election defeat, there were other concerns.

The location of the proposed police facility also concerned many voters, as did the relatively closed process by which police officials and consultants arrived at the headquarters plan. Most Lawrence residents who spoke and wrote about the issue seemed to believe that some improvements in police facilities were needed, but some thought options that better used existing space or partnered more closely with county law enforcement hadn’t been fully explored.

One issue that commissioners seem rightly focused on is a certain lack of trust among Lawrence residents. If voters had full confidence in the commissioners and in the process they followed to arrive at the police sales tax proposal, they probably would have had more confidence in the proposal itself. Various actions cited above have undermined that confidence and raised questions in voters’ minds about how commissioners are conducting city business.

Restoring that confidence won’t happen overnight. Pursuing a relatively easy fix like keeping the current police headquarters plan but funding it with property tax instead of sales tax would be a mistake. Commissioners need to listen to everything residents are telling them and take a comprehensive look at this project, its location, its funding and how it will contribute to public safety in Lawrence. Then they need to communicate their thinking in a way that gives the public confidence in the commission’s decision.

For a number of reasons, the police question on last week’s ballot just didn’t set well with Lawrence voters. The City Commission needs to take some time to find out why.

China summit a positive for Obama Washington — The photograph on Tuesday from Beijing was as carefully arranged as a display of Ming china: Presidents Barack Obama and Xi Jinping discussing the world’s business as they walked, side by side, across a bridge with ornate, brilliantly illuminated guideposts.

The artfully staged image conveyed a message: China has arrived as a great power.

Its leader stands nearly as tall as the American president (and he’s ready, as he showed later, to speak American-style, without notes, at a news press conference). Rather than insisting on its inability to share responsibility, a strong China is ready to do business.

The surprise of the Beijing summit was that a weakened President Obama, a week after a pulverizing midterm election, was able to gain significant agreements on reducing climate change, lowering tariffs for information technology, sharing intelligence about counterterrorism and helping the two nations’ militaries avoid miscalculations.

“The summit was more successful than most expected,” says Ken Lieberthal, a leading China analyst at the Brookings Institution. Obama and Xi “took a relationship that was increasingly scratchy and fractious” and showed they could make it work. Kurt Campbell, who was Obama’s assistant secretary of state for Asia and is now a consultant, agrees that Obama “played a weak hand much more effectively than expected.”

Why did this summit deliver results when U.S. di-

“

Why did this summit deliver results when U.S. diplomacy has been faltering elsewhere? One simple explanation is that the White House worked hard to prepare the ground.” plomacy has been faltering elsewhere? One simple explanation is that the White House worked hard to prepare the ground. National security adviser Susan Rice traveled to Beijing in September for talks. Counselor John Podesta worked nearly a year preparing the climate-change package. David Shear, an assistant secretary of defense, rapidly crafted confidencebuilding measures to reduce tensions at sea and in the air.

“Chapeau,” says Peter Wittig, German ambassador to Washington, using a European term of congratulation. “I would praise the process, which was professional and discreet. Nothing leaked before the meeting.”

At a deeper level, the Beijing summit symbolized China’s embrace of its new status as

a great power — which is a mixed blessing from the U.S. standpoint. In past encounters, Chinese leaders have often responded to U.S. requests for cooperation by insisting on their weakness: China is still a poor country; its military is tiny compared to that of the United States. U.S. officials have come to see this “humble pie” talk as a way of ducking responsibility; China’s strategy, in their view, was to “hide and bide,” until ready to stand level with the U.S. This moment may have come in Beijing. “China is ready to work with the United States to make efforts in a number of priority areas,” said Xi in his joint news conference with Obama.

This appearance was itself a show of confidence (and of intimidation, in Xi’s remarks about journalists).

Obama sounded a similar note of realism about cooperation with the new China: “Even as we compete and disagree in some areas, I believe we can continue to advance the security and prosperity of our people.”

Explains Campell: “What Xi has done is demonstrate that he’s comfortable with China being depicted as a powerful state.” Obama responded by showing that the U.S. is ready to engage this powerful China, as long as it acts responsibly.

Campbell cautions about the complexity of the relationship. In American eyes, most countries are either friends or foes. But the China relationship, argues Campbell, will be a “hybrid

model ... with areas of brutal competition and areas of necessary cooperation.”

On the path to this summit, Xi demonstrated his power and self-confidence, to a fault. He reached out to Russia, cleverly playing the triangular game of superpower politics; he tried to intimidate Japan and other Asian neighbors with claims of China’s territorial waters; he conducted an anti-corruption purge at home that shook up the party, and tightened its authoritarian screws.

But Lieberthal argues that in recent weeks, Xi sensed it was “time to dial back,” especially toward Japan. Just before the summit, a Chinese statement appeared to ease confrontation on the disputed Senkaku-Diaoyu islands and move the issue to the murky “to be solved later” file, long reserved for Taiwan. This seems to be a victory for Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who had hung tough during Chinese threats.

Meanwhile, China seems to have backed away slightly from its embrace of the mercurial Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose macho gesture of draping his coat over Xi’s wife at Monday’s dinner seemed more Sancho Panza than Don Quixote.

One U.S. analyst cites a Mao Zedong proverb that’s a caution in assessing the neorealism of the Beijing summit: “Despise the enemy strategically, but respect him tactically.”

’60s protesters can teach next generation Last week, I spent a day at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, where some students and I talked about protest. Des Moines is six hours up the road from Ferguson, Mo., the St. Louis suburb where Michael Brown, an unarmed teenager, was shot to death by a police officer in August, prompting weeks of often violent clashes between protesters, rioters and heavily militarized police.

Some of the kids have ties in that area, so they were waiting — even more tensely than the rest of us — to see if a grand jury would indict the officer and whether the failure to do so would mean renewed violence. These were serious-minded young people concerned about the state of their nation and they were wondering what they could do to effect change.

I’ve had similar talks on college campuses going back before most of us ever heard of Ferguson. I’ve lost count of how many students have told me: “I want to change things, but I don’t know how. What can I do?”

It amazes me that half a century ago people their age fought for civil rights, women’s rights and an end to a useless war in Southeast Asia using no technology more so-

“

Call it Protest 101, a seminar in how to organize effectively for change. It would be a gift to the next generation, one the elder generation is uniquely positioned to give.”

phisticated than mimeograph machines and rotary dial telephones, while kids with iPads and social media accounts feel helpless to make themselves heard. I’ve walked away from many encounters with students feeling that they were earnest, well-intentioned — and utterly clueless about their power to better the world.

Nor am I alone in that.

I often hear older people, those who marched, leafleted and shouted for justice in the ’60s, complain that Kids

These Days are too complacent. They lament what they would do if they were just young enough. Rep. John Lewis, the hero of the voting rights campaign in Selma, often puts it like this: “Young people today are too quiet.”

But here’s an idea: Instead of just criticizing them, why don’t their elders teach them? Meaning not just icons of the struggle for human rights like Gloria Steinem, Diane Nash and Tom Hayden, but lesserknown foot soldiers whose names never made the history books. Why don’t they put together college campus lectures, church basement meetings, podcasts?

Call it Protest 101, a seminar in how to organize effectively for change. It would be a gift to the next generation, one the elder generation is uniquely positioned to give.

I vacillate on what John Lewis said. Sometimes it seems to me that young people are, indeed, entirely too quiet, too narcotized by gadgets, games and irrelevancies to notice the world is going to heck around them. Other times, it seems that they simply don’t know what to do about it, that they have been made to feel too

helpless and small to make a difference.

But as the Occupy movement a few years ago demonstrated and Ferguson reiterates, there is a new ferment among young people — and people not so young — as they see civil rights gains whittled away, as they see elections rigged like a casino slot machine by monied interests, as they see unarmed black boys gunned down without consequence, as they see robber barons too big to fail game the economy and get away scot-free while the full weight of American jurisprudence and media indignation drops like a brick on poor people and immigrants.

What a waste if that energy goes only into the breaking of windows. What a loss if that moral authority is burned up in fire.

This nascent, inchoate movement knows how to get attention, but has no idea what to do after that. It is undisciplined and unformed and does not know how to articulate an agenda for change. I submit that that’s where their elders come in.

The ’60s generation once changed the world. Here’s a chance to change it again.

Boston (ap) — From Boston to Los Angeles, police departments are bracing for large demonstrations when a grand jury decides whether to indict a white police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Mo. The St. Louis County grand jury, which has been meeting since Aug. 20, is expected to decide this month whether Officer Darren Wilson is charged with a crime for killing 18-year-old Michael Brown after ordering him and a friend to stop walking in the street on Aug. 9.

The shooting has led to tension with police and a string of unruly protests there and brought worldwide attention to the formerly obscure St. Louis suburb, where more than half the population is black but few police officers are.

For some cities, a de-

“It’s definitely on our radar,” said Lt. Michael McCarthy, police spokesman in Boston, where police leaders met privately Wednesday to discuss preparations.

Cities prepare for protests as Ferguson decision nears in the videotaped beating of Rodney King, police officials say they’ve been in touch with their counterparts in Missouri, where Gov. Jay Nixon and St. Louis-area law enforcement held a news conference last week on their own preparations.

But big-city police departments stressed they’re well-equipped to handle crowds. Many saw large but mostly peaceful demonstrations following the 2013 not-guilty verdict in the slaying of Florida teen Trayvon Martin by neighborhood watch coordinator George Zimmerman.

Seattle — Washington’s health care exchange was shut down Saturday and will likely be offline until later today.

The site was working for the first few hours of open enrollment Saturday, until a problem with tax credit calculations was discovered.

Officials at the exchange said Washington Healthplanfinder appeared to be working fine at first. When the exchange’s automatic quality control system reported the problem, they decided to shut the whole system down at about 10:30 a.m. to fix it.

Exchange CEO Richard Onizuka says the tax credits were off by just a few dollars in some cases.

But they do not want to give consumers inaccurate information, so the site will be down until the problem is fixed.

A special task force established by the 2014 Kansas Legislature plans to finalize a report next month suggesting ways public schools could be more efficient with the money they receive from the state.

But while members of that group engaged in sharp debate Friday over issues affecting relatively small sums of money, many officials are anxiously awaiting a court ruling that could order the Legislature to add hundreds of millions of SCHOOLS dollars in education spending.

The Leaches’ desire for information is only stronger since they learned earlier this year that law enforcement, including the KBI and the FBI, had had a suspect in the 1990s who died in prison four years ago.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY INTERIM HEAD FOOTBALL COACH CLINT BOWEN STOPS TO SALUTE the student section and the Jayhawk fans remaining after a heartbreaking 34-30 loss to TCU on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

KU throws scare into mighty TCU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

As the final seconds of what was nearly one of the most epic upsets in Kansas University football history ticked away Saturday at Memorial Stadium, the KU fans who actually showed up to watch it serenaded fifthranked TCU with chants of “overrated,” mocking the Horned Frogs’ 34-30 escape over the Jayhawks.

One problem — the TCU players saw things the opposite way.

Easy call: Give Bowen the job

“Guys on the field after the game were saying, ‘Don’t let anybody tell you you’re not any good, because you guys played your asses off today,’” senior linebacker Ben Heeney said of the TCU players.

Kansas senior cornerback JaCorey Shepherd, who once again put his stamp all over this one with an interception, a pass break-up and a pick-six that was called back because of an illegalsubstitution penalty, put

Kansas University athletic director Sheahon Zenger’s phone rings. He answers it.

“Sheahon, Chuck,” consultant Chuck Neinas says. “Let’s make a deal. I’ll donate $25,000 to charity, pocket the other $25,000 to cover taxes, etc., and let’s call the whole thing off.

What do you say?”

Zenger: “Great. We’ll send an airplane to bring you here for a Monday press conference so that you can bring attention to the charity of your choice.”

was finally confirmed, he had to reflect on when KU last played Missouri.

“I’m trying to think …

How long has it been since they’ve been out of the conference?” Francis asked.

He didn’t have to wait long for an answer.

“Three years,” said Caro-

line Van Slambrouck, who chimed in from across the Rock Chalk Park soccer media room.

The Jayhawks will play Missouri for the first time since the Tigers departed the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference in a firstround NCAA Tournament

matchup at 1 p.m. today at Rock Chalk Park.

Francis and the Jayhawk seniors are still quite familiar with the Tigers.

The Jayhawks’ head coach has maintained a good friendship with Missouri coach Bryan Blitz, who guided the Tigers to a

record of 11-6-3 and fourthplace finish in the SEC. “Bryan is a friend of mine,” Francis said. “We’ve known each other for years, so obviously I take an interest in how he’s doing, and I see him out recruiting and Please see BORDER, page 3B

Chiefs, Seattle similar Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Seattle Seahawks and Kansas City Chiefs are in many ways spitting images of each other.

The Seahawks have a dominant ground game led by Marshawn Lynch, the Chiefs a potent ground attack led by Jamaal Charles. Both teams have stingy defenses, mobile quarterbacks and rosters not made up of high-priced acquisitions but of unheralded and lateround draft picks.

Even their records are the same.

Both are 6-3 entering today’s game at Arrowhead Stadium.

None of this should be that surprising, though.

Seahawks general manager John Schneider and Chiefs counterpart John Dorsey spent years working side-by-side under Ron Wolf and Ted Thompson in Green Bay, both of them basing their own rosterbuilding beliefs on the Packers model.

“We all have different ways on how to build a team,” Dorsey said. “It’s no secret John and I both started in Green Bay, groomed under Ron, groomed under Ted. So there’s likemindedness in how you go about certain ways, but everybody’s personality is a little bit different.”

Sure, there are subtle differences in the rosters. But the results have been similar.

The Seahawks are coming off a Super Bowl victory, and Schneider has built a team that is the envy of many executives in the NFL. Meanwhile, the Chiefs are coming off an 11-5 mark in Dorsey’s first season, a nine-win improvement over the team he inherited.

Not surprisingly, Dorsey turned to the Seahawks when he was rebuilding his roster.

In a waiver-wire spending spree last season, Dorsey signed former Seattle defensive back Ron Parker, defensive tackle Jaye Howard and tight end Sean McGrath. Parker is still on the Chiefs, evolving from an unknown prospect out of tiny Newberry College into their second-leading tackler.

KU women set for South Dakota in opener

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After two exhibition games, ready or not, the season has arrived for Kansas Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team.

The Jayhawks will open the season against South Dakota at 2 p.m. today at Allen Fieldhouse.

KU beat Fort Hays

State and Washburn University handily in its exhibition slate, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all positive, despite a veteran-laden team with four senior starters â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chelsea Gardner, Natalie Knight, Asia Boyd and Bunny Williams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to mature and grow up quick here, and take some pride on the defensive end to be

consistent and maintain focus, positioning, and pressure,â&#x20AC;? KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said last week after KU beat Washburn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At times, pressure was better than it was a week ago, but that still has to get better on the ball.â&#x20AC;?

KU is also still working on finding a newcomer to provide solid

play at point guard.

Freshman Lauren Aldridge has played well while starting during the two exhibition contests, but the Jayhawks also have junior transfer Timeka Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neal and freshman Terriell Bradley ready to contribute.

The Coyotes (1-0), who beat Drake University, 83-78, on Friday,

Self: Jayhawks can finally Border

turn attention to Kentucky

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

With a 10-point opening-night victory over a veteran UC Santa Barbara basketball team in the books ... â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now we can talk about the Wildcats of Kentucky,â&#x20AC;? Kansas University coach Bill Self said after the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 69-59 victory on Friday night in Allen Fieldhouse.

The No. 1-ranked Kentucky Wildcats, who meet No. 5 KU approximately 8:50 p.m. Tuesday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, pounded Grand Canyon, 85-45, in Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opener in Lexington, Kentucky.

UK has another home tune-up tonight versus Buffalo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to say it will be just a toughness game, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not, but when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re as big as them (7-foot Willie Cauley-Stein, 6-11 Karl Towns, 6-8 Alex Poythress in starting lineup; 6-9 Marcus Lee, 6-10 Trey Lyles, 7-0 Dakari Johnson off bench) and a lot of times looking at their rebounding stats, their best offense is just getting on the glass, and go run get it,â&#x20AC;? Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have to do a much better job of being tougher in rotation rebounding and really paying attention to that, because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really good. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re long, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be hard to score against. Cal (John Calipari, UK head coach) is a good defensive coach, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got so much length. So we need to be sure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really good rebounding on the defensive end ourselves.â&#x20AC;?

Self wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overly impressed with the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opening win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was an ugly win, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take it. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not embarrassed beating Santa Barbara by 10 because I knew they were capable of giving us some problems,â&#x20AC;? Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the killer instinct, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put them away, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish the game great. We did beat a good team. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pleased with the defense, pretty pleased with our rebounding,â&#x20AC;? he added after winning the board battle 42-31 and holding

KANSAS UNIVERSITY COACH BILL SELF calls a play against UC Santa Barbara on Friday night in Allen Fieldhouse. the Gauchos to 41.1 percent marksmanship (4for-19 from three).

KU hit 41.5 percent of its shots, 20 percent (2for-10) from three. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t throw the ball inside enough. Our ball movement on the perimeter is so bad. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it side to side enough. The ball is sticking. Even with big guys, the ball is sticking,â&#x20AC;? Self said.

Perry Ellis led the frontcourt players with 13 points (off 4-of-7 shooting) and 10 rebounds.

Jamari Traylor had two points (1-for-4 shooting) and 10 boards. Cliff Alexander had nine points (3-of-5 shooting) and four boards, Landen Lucas two points and two boards and Hunter Mickelson one block in two minutes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cliff played well â&#x20AC;&#x201D; four minutes the first half (one point, two boards), five or six in a row until he was totally gassed. He was great (in the second half, with eight points, two boards in eight minutes). We put him in late, he backed off the guy (Alan Williams, 22 points, 13 boards) who scored four straight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is nice to see two hands over the rim when we go rebound the ball.â&#x20AC;?

The 6-8 Alexander showed a nice touch on a 15-footer the second half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No no no, it was a good shot, Cliff,â&#x20AC;? Self said, smiling, asked his reaction to the shot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cliff acted like he knew what he was doing when he took them.

Cliff played well. He got two quick fouls early, but I thought Cliff did some good things. One thing

Cliff can do is that he can go after the ball.â&#x20AC;?

An easy-going guy off the court with a deep voice and a big smile, Alexander laughed when asked by a reporter if he â&#x20AC;&#x153;felt OKâ&#x20AC;? coming off the bench at this stage of his career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mean, whatever works for the team.

Whatever works for the team,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Asked when he last was asked to come off the bench, he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Never.â&#x20AC;?

Nine Jayhawks played nine or more minutes in the opener. Ten Kentucky players went 14 or more minutes vs. Grand Canyon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to get that under our belt,â&#x20AC;? Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was nervous about this (opener). They (Gauchos) play zone. Our best players arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t playing (as well as they can) yet ... weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a much better team (as season progresses).â&#x20AC;?

Duke notches second victory Top 25 No. 4 Duke 109, Fairfield 59 Durham, N.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Freshman Justise Winslow scored 18 points, and Duke beat Fairfield on Saturday night in its second game of the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic.

Preseason All-American Jahlil Okafor and Quinn Cook each scored 17 for the Blue Devils (20).

Duke shot 64.5 percent â&#x20AC;&#x201D; hitting better than 60 percent for the second straight game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; used a 30-10 run that bridged

stuff. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a good season, and the SEC is a tough conference.â&#x20AC;?

Much of the Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; success on offense can be attributed to the play of senior midfielder Kaysie Clark. Clark leads the Tigers in points with 17 and assists with 11. Forwards Taylor Grant and Reagan Russell have been the top two beneficiaries of Clarkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assists, as they lead the Tigers in goals with seven and six, respectively.

The Jayhawks will have starting goalkeeper Kaitlyn Stroud back between the pipes to try to shut down the Tigers. Stroud had to sit out in the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 2-1 loss to Oklahoma in the Big 12 tournament quarterfinals due to a red card she received in Kansasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; final regular-season game. Stroud got the start in goal against Missouri in her freshman season when the Tigers rallied to beat the Jayhawks, 3-2, in Columbia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our seniors have played Missouri in a Border War game, so obviously for them itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge because they know what it means,â&#x20AC;? Francis said.

more from exhibition opponents was 2-3 zone, as thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expected to be the main defense for the Coyotes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We maybe saw 10 possessions of it,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re anticipating seeing that quite a bit. ... It would have been good for us to liveplay against it a little bit more.â&#x20AC;?

Fourth-year junior Liana Salazar also played in the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; last matchup against the Tigers along with Stroud, Van Slambrouck and Jamie Fletcher. Salazar ranked second in the Big 12 with 12 goals, 28 points and 59 shots to spark Kansas offensively.

Both the Tigers and Jayhawks came out of the gates quickly to begin the season, but faltered down the stretch. MU started the season 9-2-2 before losing four of its last seven. The Jayhawks jumped to a 14-1 start before dropping four of their last five.

While the results do not show it, Van Slambrouck believes the Jayhawks have played some of their best soccer in their past two losses against Oklahoma. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Honestly, I would have rather lost two games and grown from that than to go in and not have experience in those tough situations, because I thought we played really, really well against Oklahoma in the second half (of the Big 12 tournament quarterfinal),â&#x20AC;? Van Slambrouck said.

The winner of the Border War matchup will go on to play No. 4 seeded Washington on Friday in Stanford, California, in the Round of 32.

BRIEFLY Missouri Valley edges Baker Baldwin City â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Missouri Valley earned a share of the HAAC football title with a 27-24 victory over Baker on Saturday at Liston Stadium.

Missouri Valley (9-1 overall, 8-1 HAAC) tied MidAmerica Nazarene for the title. The No. 12-ranked Wildcats fell to 8-3 and 6-3 and will learn today if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll receive a bid to the NAIA-FCS playoffs.

Baker fell behind 14-0 but tied it on a 20-yard pass from Nick Marra to T. J. Holtrop and a one-yard run by Camren Torneden. Torneden, a Free State High product, gained 107 yards on 22 carries. Justice Berry added a fourth-quarter score on a pass from Marra.

.

2-MINUTE DRILL TCU 34 Kansas 30 BRIEFLY TCU scored on its opening possession, but managed just a field goal from its next five first-half possessions, allowing Kansas (TD, TD, punt, punt, punt) to take a 13-10 lead into intermission. … KU scored touchdowns on its first two second-half possessions, but went three-and-out on three straight and punted away the next drive, too, then had to settle for a field goal despite a turnover setting up first-and-goal.

The Jayhawks’ final possession was blunted by an interception. … TCU was methodical, with three touchdowns and a field goal from four of its first five second-half possessions to take control.

TCU LEADERS Rushing: Aaron Green 19-128.

Passing: Trevone Boykin 26-for-37-for 330 yards, TD, INT. Receiving: Ty Slanina 6-95, TD; David Porter 6-67.

TCU coach lobbies for Bowen

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

TCU football coach/ Rozel native Gary Patterson — whose Horned Frogs kept their Big 12 and national title hopes alive with a down-tothe-wire 34-30 road victory against Kansas University on Saturday afternoon — believes the Jayhawks’ next head coach just might be their current interim coach.

“Unless they find somebody better out there, but to me it’d be hard to be any better than what they played today,” said Patterson, who had a message for KU’s Clint Bowen during the postgame handshake.

“Like I told him, he did a great job,” Patterson said. “I think they’ve done a great job. No. 1, he cares about KU. I think that’s the ulti-

mate No. 1. I think the same thing happens with coach (Bill) Snyder at Kansas State. He cares about Kansas State.

“I think Kansas people deserve somebody like that. I think that’s the kind of people they are here. They want somebody who is going to care about them, also be a good ball coach, be able to recruit and do some things,” added KSU graduate Patterson. “I think coach Bowen and his staff have got his kids to play.”

The unheralded Jayhawks (3-7, 1-6) led TCU (9-1, 6-1) by 10 points in the third quarter.

TCU just happens to be ranked fourth in the College Football Playoff poll, meaning if the season ended Saturday, the Frogs would be in the inaugural Final Four.

“Well, yeah ... until the last second,” Patterson said, if he felt the outcome was in doubt. “I never felt (it was) out of reach. But it was interesting.”

Patterson had so much respect for the Bowen-led Jayhawk team that took the field Saturday he decided to go for a first down on fourth-and-one from the KU 14 with 2:14 left. A short field goal would have given the Frogs a seven-point lead.

Instead, quarterback Trevone Boykin (330 yards passing, one TD; 19 yards rushing) carried for two yards and the pivotal first.

“You don’t have things going for you, and things happen. That’s why I went for it on fourth down,” Patterson said. “Everybody said, ‘Why didn’t you kick

a field goal?’ To be honest with you, you’ve got to get an inch. They had no timeouts left. You get an inch, you win the ballgame. If they go down and score a touchdown (after field goal), they could go for two and still beat you.”

He didn’t want to take any chances of a late Jayhawk TD, not on a day KU receiver Nigel King scored on a 78-yard pass play in which he kept the ball alive by tipping it a couple of times.

“There were some interesting plays, I have to tell you that,” Patterson said with a smile.

He was asked if his team felt any “disappointment” about Saturday’s narrow win.

“Oh, no. No,” Patterson stressed. “They (Frogs) knew they about got beat.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY RECEIVER NIGEL KING TIPS A DEEP PASS TO HIMSELF to keep it in bounds for an eventual touchdown against TCU during the third quarter of the Jayhawks’ 34-30 loss on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

it another way: “When the fans started saying ‘overrated,’ (the TCU guys) were giving us our props and respect saying, ‘No, y’all are underrated.’ That’s nice to hear. That’s respect. And that’s why you play the game.”

For much of a cold and crazy Saturday — which drew an announced paid attendance of 30,889 but actually looked like less than half of that — the Jayhawks played to win.

After giving up a touchdown on the opening possession to the high-powered TCU offense, the Jayhawks outscored the Horned Frogs (9-1 overall, 6-1 Big 12) 27-10 and built a 27-17 lead after a 78yard touchdown pass from Michael Cummings to Nigel King in which King tipped the ball two times to himself before securing it and then racing the rest of the way untouched to pad KU’s lead. On the ensuing kickoff, the Jayhawks forced a TCU fumble and recovered it in Horned Frogs territory. But the KU offense could not turn that fortune into points, and instead of going up by 13 or 17 points, left the door to a TCU comeback open just enough.

“The ball’s on the 50.

That’s not a guarantee that you’re gonna take it down

on the TCU defense and get points,” KU coach Clint Bowen said.

Probably not. But it sure would have helped.

Instead, the Horned Frogs answered with two touchdowns in the final four minutes of the third quarter to take a 31-27 lead into the fourth. A 24-yard run

by Aaron Green (128 yards and 2 TDs on 19 carries) got it started, and a 69-yard punt return from Cameron Echols-Luper pushed the Frogs over the top.

“That definitely hurt,” Shepherd said. “That was hard to see. I feel like that play was the turning point in the game.”

Such a statement carries a little more weight in a game like this, where so many crazy things went down.

On KU’s first drive alone,

First Quarter 12:36 — Ty Slanina 27 pass from Trevone Boykin. Jaden Oberkrom kick. Boykin marched the Horned Frogs 67 yards in seven plays on the game’s opening drive and completed five of six passes while also converting a third-and-one with a one-yard run to set up the score. (TCU 7, KU 0).

6:49 — Corey Avery 2 run. Kick blocked.

The Jayhawks benefited from a roughing-the-punter call, a fourth-down pass from T.J. Millweard to Trent Smiley on a bobbled snap on a field-goal try and pass from Michael Cummings to Nick Harwell that was thrown behind him and batted into the air by TCU DB Sam Carter. (TCU 7, KU 6).

Second Quarter 12:02 — Jimmay Mundine 13 pass from Michael Cummings. Matthew Wyman kick.

After KU held TCU on a fourth-and-one try deep in the Kansas end, the KU offense put together its second lengthy drive of the day, marching 89 yards in 14 plays and 6:18 to claim the lead. (KU 13, TCU 7).

3:41 — Jaden Oberkrom 24 field goal.

The KU defense once again stood tall in the red zone, with Jake Love picking up a sack, JaCorey Shepherd picking up a pass break-up and the rest of the defense keeping Boykin bottled up and everything in front of them. (KU 13, TCU 10).

Third Quarter 12:02 — Michael Cummings 1 run.

Wyman kick. The Jayhawks picked up right where they left off on the opening drive of the second half, marching 82 yards in six plays and 2:54 to build a 10-point lead. The big play on the drive came on a second and 10, when Cummings hit Mundine with a short pass,

KANSAS TIGHT END JIMMAY MUNDINE (41) IS CONGRATULATED by running backs coach Reggie Mitchell and teammates Ben Johnson (84) and Ed Fink (45) after his touchdown against TCU during the second quarter. the Jayhawks benefitted from a roughing-the-punter call, a fourth-down conversion pass from T.J. Millweard to Trent Smiley on a botched fieldgoal attempt and a catch by senior receiver Nick Harwell near the goal line that was so far off line that it caromed off the defender and fell softly into Harwell’s hands.

“I meant to do that,” joked junior quarterback Cummings, who had his best game to date, throwing for 332 yards and two touchdowns, most of it while dealing with a banged-up throwing shoulder.

Then there was the King touchdown catch — part of his five-catch, 128-yard day — and, finally, a fluky fourth-quarter fumble that gave the Jayhawks a firstand-goal at the TCU 10 with nine minutes to play

and a seven-point deficit.

KU gained five yards from Corey Avery on first down but could go no farther and settled for a 23-yard Matthew Wyman field goal that set the final margin.

Asked if he thought about going for it on fourth-andsix, Bowen said it never entered his mind.

“No,” he said. “Because I was confident we could get another stop, get the ball back and finish the game with a stop and a touchdown.”

The first part of that came true, as the Jayhawks took over at their own 11 with 4:09 to play. But after a first-down strike from Cummings to Justin McCay, the drive stalled, and KU never got the ball back.

By that point, enough good things had happened to the Jayhawks for them to walk away from Saturday’s near-upset with their heads high. But all many Jayhawks could do was lament the lost opportunity.

“It felt like it was our day the way everything was going our way,” Heeney said.

“This one’s a tough one. But it was a great effort by everybody, and it was much appreciated by the seniors.

Everyone laid it on the line for us, and I think a lot of it had to do with Senior Day and the emotions.”

“With us playing how we did today,” King added, “I definitely feel like we can play with anyone in the country.”

HOW THEY SCORED and the senior tight end did the rest, racing 67 yards to the 2 to set up the score.

(KU 20, TCU 10).

8:47 — Aaron Green 3 run. Oberkrom kick. The Frogs answered with a nineplay, 72-yard drive that took 3:08 and featured another 5-of-6 passing effort from Boykin. (KU 20, TCU 17).

8:27 — Nigel King 78 pass from Cummings. Wyman kick. Just 20 seconds after TCU answered the Jayhawks’ second-half score, King caught a pass from Cummings after tipping the ball in the air twice to himself and then out-running the TCU secondary. (KU 27, TCU 17).

3:48 — Aaron Green 24 run. Oberkrom kick. Green carried the ball just once on the Frogs’ much-needed scoring drive but made it count, slipping through the middle of the Kansas defense and sprinting untouched into the end zone. (KU 27, TCU 24).

2:38 — Cameron Echols-Luper 69 punt return. Oberkrom kick. Barely a minute after cutting the Kansas lead to three points and less than 10 minutes after fumbling the ball away to KU in TCU territory, the Frogs jumped on top for the first time since 7-6. (TCU 31, KU 27).

Fourth Quarter 12:08 — Oberkrom 25 field goal. The Jayhawks’ defense held the Frogs to a field goal and kept the lead at seven points. (TCU 34, KU 27).

7:42 — Matthew Wyman 23 field goal.

KU’s defense set the Jayhawks up with a golden opportunity to tie the game when Victor Simmons forced a fumble and Tedarian Johnson jumped on it at the TCU 10. After picking up five yards on a first-down run from Corey Avery, the Jayhawks stalled and settled for three.

(TCU 34, KU 30).

KU honors 21 seniors

KANSAS UNIVERSITY INTERIM HEAD COACH CLINT BOWEN GETS AIRBORNE as he celebrates a fourth-down stop against TCU during the first quarter of the Jayhawks’ eventual 34-30 loss Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

Keegan CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

when an assistant coach is promoted to interim head coach, nothing is typical about the way Clint Bowen has transformed a depleted roster into a high-flying, hardhitting ball of focused fire.

Bowen’s Ballers won respect and followers Saturday. They won points for toughness.

They won everywhere but on a scoreboard that showed TCU 34, Kansas 30 when the seconds were gone and the last visible breath had ridden the biting wind through frigid air.

The stands had more bodies in the second half than the first, an indication of just how far this team has come in seven weeks and six games under the former KU defensive back who had worked as an assistant under four coaches at his alma mater.

The Jayhawks lined the sidelines, letting their passionate voices be heard by teammates from start to finish. Across the way, the Horned Frogs, one of the toughest teams in college football, week in and week out, crowded a pair of heated white benches, squeezing closer to each other than the fans in Allen Fieldhouse.

“I think being up and being supportive of your teammates is something that we really try to work on, have it be something that is a strength of our game, bringing juice and bringing enthusiasm,” senior tight end Trent Smiley said. “It’s hard to do that from sitting on the bench. And we practice in that stuff all week, and we don’t get to sit on the bench in practice, so why do it now, right?”

Practice is where Smiley gets most of his action as a pass-catcher.

It wasn’t for naught.

KANSAS SAFETY CASSIUS SENDISH SPINS TCU running back Kyle Hicks off his feet during the third quarter.

When the wayward snap for a short field goal was dropped and quickly picked back up by holder T.J. Millweard, who was screaming “Fire!

Fire! Fire!” Smiley knew where to go, a couple of yards past the first-down marker on the left-center side of the field. Millweard hit him with a low throw, and Smiley had a first down that enabled a touchdown.

It was one of many big plays that didn’t start out so hot for KU. It pumped pride into the stands, the sidelines, the program.

Kansas hasn’t had a lot of tangible reasons in recent seasons to feel proud.

“Maybe from the outside there aren’t reasons to be, and I could understand how people see that,” said Smiley, a serious guy who attended a recent career day at the Booth Family Hall of Athletics, despite having such a busy schedule. “I have always been proud to be a Jayhawk. However, there has been a new sense of pride and enthusiasm about being here. It’s great, and it’s refreshing, and it’s totally with coach Bowen.”

How so?

“We’ve adapted to his mentality and his outlook on this place and put that in an external showing.

I think it’s definitely

something that we can build on, something we can use, and have used, to be competitive,” Smiley said. “Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to finish these games, but it’s pretty apparent that we’ve improved.”

Kansas is 1-5 under Bowen, all in Big 12 games. Now that NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has stripped the taboo from discussing sports wagering, it’s only appropriate to point out that KU is 5-1 under Bowen against the spread. That’s such a rare number because Las Vegas and the betting public usually adjust to such things, but it’s been so long since KU has been competitive in the Big 12 that it’s difficult for even the professional forecasters to absorb.

“I think it fits. I think it fits,” Smiley said of Bowen coaching KU. “It feels right for everyone involved. It doesn’t take long to be around this place to say, ‘You know what, that works.’ There is something about it. I can’t put my finger on it.

It’s not readily apparent to me, I guess, but it’s something. It’s there.”

Maybe it’s as simple as a smart, tough, driven football player coaching so long and for so many head coaches at his alma mater, absorbing what

works and what doesn’t, and relentlessly applying what works.

Jimmay Mundine was the happiest guy in the stadium when Smiley made what Smiley called “definitely the favorite play of my career,” because he knows how hard his backup works. Mundine pointed to another reason Bowen has made such a positive change in such a short time.

“I really think it’s coach Bowen getting guys better, mentally and physically,” said Mundine, who danced his way to a remarkable career day, making tackler after tackler miss him. “Guys just want to give more for him and go all-out for him.”

It’s like anything in life, if a person’s work with you makes you better at what you do, you’re going to want to work all the harder for him, and your tolerance for pain increases.

The university hasn’t always exhibited a great deal of self-esteem in regard to its football program. No louder way of reversing that inferiority complex exists than believing in one of your own, believing your eyes, which are telling you that there is no better fit for the job than the guy who has it, even if your ears don’t want to hear it.

Talk about going out with a bang.

Saturday marked the final home game in the careers of 21 Kansas University football seniors, and, to honor them, a handful of those veteran leaders and underclassmen banded together to push No. 5 TCU to the brink of disaster in a 3430 KU loss at Memorial Stadium.

Senior linebacker Ben Heeney said he thought the emotions of Senior Day played a big role in the Jayhawks’ spirited effort, and, in addition to being honored on the field prior to kickoff with their families, the KU seniors were the stars of a pregame video shown only to the team inside the Anderson Family Football Complex.

“I told those guys from the beginning that it’s a day they’ll always remember,” KU coach Clint Bowen said. “We did a few things during the week to emphasize Senior Day, because we did want those guys to know how much they were appreciated, and we had a senior video in here, and it was a little bit of a tearjerker.”

Asked what that group meant to this team, both during the past few years and into the future, junior quarterback Michael Cummings summed it up with one word: priceless.

“It was an emotionfilled day, knowing it was their last game at Memorial Stadium,” Cummings said. “Their influence on the program and on me personally is priceless.”

Bowen update Six games into his eight-game audition for the permanent headcoaching job, Bowen continues to build a strong résumé for having the interim tag removed from his title.

Asked if Saturday’s effort had any impact on the ongoing search to find a new football coach, KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger spoke highly of Bowen and what he has accomplished here in the past seven weeks.

“Clint is definitely a candidate for the job,” Zenger said. “And he continues to be a strong candidate.”

Cummings OK Although he never missed a snap, Cummings clearly was forced to deal with right arm and shoulder issues Saturday.

After scoring on a one-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter, Cummings emerged from the pile with his arm hanging low and was looked at by trainers on the sideline. Sophomore Montell Cozart began to warm up, but Cummings played through the pain.

Asked how the arm felt, Cummings was brief.

“It’s all right. It’s all right,” he said.

Cummings said several teammates and coaches approached him throughout the second half to see how he was feeling, but his answer was always the same. “‘I’m good,’” junior receiver Nigel King said, mimicking Cummings.

“They asked me,” Cummings said. “But as long as I can go out there and put the ball where it needs to be, I’m gonna be out there playing.”

Tough call An interception return for a touchdown by JaCorey Shehperd in the second quarter was negated after the Jayhawks were flagged for an illegal substitution.

Visibly frustrated by the call, Bowen kept his cool when asked about the situation after the game.

“It was a hurry-up snap,” Bowen said after a long pause. “I’m not going into the officiating thing. They hurried up and caught us for 12 (players). We thought we had a chance to make a substitution.”

While no one argued that KU had 12 men on the field when the ball was snapped, there was some question about the timing of the flag, which came well after the play after officials met near the end zone, and why KU did not get the opportunity to finish its substitution after TCU made its.

Asked if he saw a flag thrown during the play, Bowen again kept it brief.

“I don’t know that I did,” he said.

Fake or no fake?

Sophomore quarterback and holder T.J. Millweard confirmed that his 10-yard completion to senior tight end Trent Smiley after a botched hold attempt on a field-goal try was not intentional.

“We did not plan that,” said Millweard of the scramble drill which Bowen said the team works on every Thursday. “It was not called, but I’m happy I could pull it out and make a play.”

Mundine’s monster day Senior tight end Jimmay Mundine turned in one of the all-time great receiving games by a Kansas tight end.

His seven-catch, 137yard afternoon, which included a 13-yard touchdown reception and a 67yard catch-and-run that set up another TD, was the most by a KU tight end since 1974, which is as far back as the KU records go.

“That one run he had was nothing short of amazing,” Bowen said of the 67-yard scamper that featured several nifty moves by Mundine.

The early TD catch was his sixth of the season, and his 100-yard day combined with that from King (5-128) marked the first time since 2009 that a KU pass-catching duo has topped the century mark in the same game.

Top 25 No. 4 Alabama 25, No. 1 Miss. St. 20 Tuscaloosa, Ala. — Blake Sims, T.J. Yeldon and Alabama’s relentless defense delivered on a big stage, and the Crimson Tide held off Mississippi State on Saturday.

The Tide (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference, No. 5 CFP) reasserted itself as a national title contender with a dominant first half and some clutch play in the fourth quarter.

Dak Prescott and the Bulldogs (9-1, 5-1, No. 1 CFP) kept fighting to keep their first-ever reign going for a sixth week. They couldn’t conquer Alabama at raucous Bryant-Denny Stadium, though. Mississippi State scored early in the fourth to make it a six-point game, but Sims and Yeldon answered with a steady march to the end zone.

John Cleese and the absurdity of everything

“T

SCENE STEALERS

he idea that the world can become a sensible place is ridiculous,” said John Cleese during a 90-minute conversation onstage at The Midland Theatre on Wednesday evening.

Coming from Cleese, a founding member of British sketch comedy troupe Monty Python, this statement could be taken as a formal creed eric@scene-stealers.com of sorts. That is, if Cleese believed in such a thing.

Python’s best work (from episode, and when he is its influential “Flying Cir- finally revealed, his indigcus” TV series to movies nant reaction is always the like “Monty Python’s Life of Brian”) gnashes its teeth at doctrine, exposing the hypocrisy and absurdity of life wherever it lies.

“Life of Brian” is about a guy in Biblical times who was trying to get laid and ends up getting mistaken for the Messiah.

According to Cleese, it isn’t making fun of religion, it’s making fun of how people follow religion — an important distinction that was lost on many a protesting religious leader upon the controversial film’s release in 1979.

Nothing much has changed since then, he said, with some people still misunderstanding and twisting some of the fundamentals of Christianity.

“I’m pretty sure God didn’t say ‘blessed be the rich,’” said Cleese, adding: “If you want to see what God thinks of money just look at who he gives it to.”

The 75-year-old Cleese was in Kansas City to promote his new autobiography “So, Anyway …,” a recounting of his first 30 years, leading right up to the formation of Python.

Although he took questions from the audience, Cleese spent most of the night telling stories from his youth and reading passages from the book, some which were explosively funny.

Cleese’s father was born Reginald Cheese, but he changed his surname during his service in World War I to put an end to the teasing he would get. It didn’t help his son much, it turns out, as John was bullied in school anyway.

To stop the bullying, he decided it was easier to make people laugh.

Teachers weren’t real fond of this, however, and one even issued a stern statement that went home to his parents: “Cleese indulges in subversive activities in the back of the room.”

Cleese touched on some of his best-loved work outside of Python as well. “Fawlty Towers” has been hailed by some as the funniest TV sitcom ever created, and tend to I agree.

Centered around apoplectic hotelier Basil Fawlty, who was always hiding something from his sensible wife, Sybil, the show’s humor mainly derived from the two things that Cleese said inspire the most laughter: People behaving inappropriately and something going wrong.

Basil’s fear of discovery always makes up the funniest, most-squirminducing parts of each

hilarious climax. Although Cleese has admitted previously that Basil was at least partially based on an English hotel owner he met in 1971, he now traces the inspiration back to when he was 9 years old, noting what he termed the “icy rage” of a young schoolmate.

Delving into the classic 1988 comedy “A Fish Called Wanda,” which Cleese wrote and starred in, he talked mostly about how proud he was that the film was a comeback of sorts for its 77-year-old director. Charles Crichton

is known for helming the post-WWII Ealing comedies in England, such as “The Lavender Hill Mob,” and had been out of the film industry in the U.K. for a full 21 years before “Wanda” came along.

The event was a rare night to see Cleese in public on American soil, although the members of Monty Python themselves have had a busy year. The five-man troupe (without Graham Chapman, who died in 1989) performed their last reunion shows in July of this year during five sold-out nights in

London. The tagline for the event displayed kind of dark humor we’ve come to expect from Python: “One down, five to go.”

Cleese said that two more autobiographies, covering his Python years and beyond, will follow this one, so, who knows, maybe we’ll see him again on another book tour. I could see him pulling a David Sedaris-like act together, especially since his conversation with Vivien Jennings, founder and president of Rainy Day Books, mostly consisted of her teeing him up

for stories he already planned on telling. If there’s one thing we can know for sure, though, it’s that Cleese won’t be taking any of it seriously.

Because if there’s one thing he’s learned about life, it’s this: “Very few people actually know what they are doing,” he said. “And even fewer people know that they don’t know what they’re doing.”

How to spend the holidays in KC

T

he holiday season is upon us, and as is always the case, there’s lots to do in Kansas City between now and New Year’s. Here’s a rundown of some of the highlights:

Union Station The 100-year anniversary of Union Station is an excellent time to explore the building’s classic architecture, restaurants, special exhibits, giant strands of lights and vivid holiday decorations.

Don’t miss the Kansas City Southern Holiday Express Train with Santa, which will be at Union Station from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Dec. 18 to 21.

The Holiday Express is an actual train that makes stops in several cities, with cars including Rudy the smiling tank car, a flatcar with Santa’s sleigh, a gingerbread boxcar, a mobile elves’ workshop, a reindeer stable and a red caboose.

Sponsored by the Kansas City Southern railroad company, the Holiday Express is free to enter, with donations accepted toward helping provide clothing for children in need. Visit unionstation.org

Gracie Schram.

Royals general manager Dayton Moore and left fielder Alex Gordon will flip the switch at 6:54 p.m. The lights will stay on through Jan. 12.

Crown Center With its massive mayor’s Christmas tree, Santa’s playground, dozens of shops and an adjoining ice terrace, Crown Center is Kansas City’s de facto holiday headquarters.

The Sea Life aquarium and Legoland Discovery Center have added to shopping center’s appeal, though each has a separate admission fee.

————————

New book ‘Entertainer of the Century’ makes compelling case for comedy legend

By Rich Heldenfels Akron Beacon Journal

In 2013, a writer in Miami was writing about Cleveland’s own Bob Hope and said if you’re under 40, you’re probably wondering who he is.

Offering an explanation, the writer said, “Hope was a movie star during your grandparents’ days that was known for his comedy films, entertaining American troops overseas with the USO, his many homes and his parade of extramarital affairs.”

Too short and too mean.

But it’s cracks like that that make Richard Zoglin’s new book “Hope: Entertainer of the Century” important. A contributing editor for Time magazine, Zoglin has put together a fair-minded book about Hope as an entertainer and as a person, and tells a far more compelling story

than can be found in some tossed-off snark.

Some of the stories being written are focusing on Hope’s flaws, all detailed in Zoglin’s book, such as his constant womanizing (Hope was unfaithful to his wife, Dolores, even into his 80s). There are also comments about the stresses in his relationships with frequent co-star Bing Crosby and with Johnny Carson, his shortcomings as a father, his demanding treatment of his writers and his workaholic ways long after his health should have sent him offstage.

Indeed, Zoglin says that Hope’s reputation was in decline before he died, that he had lost younger audiences not only with his conservative politics but also with an act that showed him as “a cuecard-reading antique.”

But pause a moment and take a look at the book’s title. Zoglin’s biography is, in

POET’S SHOWCASE these things we learned

in the fall of ‘67 when reality was something that happened when you were busy enjoying life a little too much... behind the painted lucy in the sky with diamonds window on the ninth floor of the boys’ dorm

a telescope focused on a ninth floor window of the girls’ dorm down the hill... our room in the only dorm panty raided while cops confiscated driver’s licenses and we were told to stay away from windows and lock our doors...just in case 33-1/3 black vinyl spun round and round on a

After all, he conquered every entertainment medium of his times, from vaudeville to Broadway to television.

He essentially invented the modern comedic monologue — sharply paced and full of modern references.

And beyond such achievements, Zoglin says

Hope redefined celebrity.

Hope personified the star as successful, career-controlling businessman. He was “Hollywood’s inventor of brand extension,” spreading his name to books, a golf tournament, even a comic book series that ran 18 years.

All of this unfolds in considerable detail. Zog-

lin has read Hope’s biographers, looked closely at his memoirs and combed through Hope’s papers with the approval and help of Bob’s daughter, Linda.

He has seen the films and studied the TV specials, admiring where it is called for, pointed where it is not.

Ample space is devoted to Hope’s youth in Cleveland, and the difficulty of it, with a harddrinking father who was often out of work. But he goes deeper than some biographies, reporting that Hope’s dropping out of high school “for reasons that Hope and his biographers have always been vague about” was in fact the result of his being sent to a reform school in Lancaster, Ohio, for seven months after being judged a delinquent. He was later sent back for a second stint after violating his probation, Zoglin says.

A TEAM OF WORKERS, including Spencer Museum of Art exhibition design staff and a representative from the LeWitt Estate, install “Wall Drawing #519” at the Spencer Museum of Art. The wall drawing is actually a set of instructions by artist Sol LeWitt for the installation of the piece. LeWitt, a pioneer in the Minimalist and Conceptualist movements, emphasized design concept over the physical result of the art work.

Installation of Sol LeWitt piece underway at Spencer

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

Over the next week at Kansas University’s Spencer Museum of Art, a team of workers will transform a blank gallery wall into a large-scale, vibrantly hued work of art

by Minimalism and Conceptualism pioneer Sol LeWitt.

When it’s finished, the 80-by-11-foot piece, entitled “Wall Drawing #519” will become the newest addition to the Spencer’s permanent collection.

Earlier this fall, the museum received the LeWitt donation from international corporation Pitney Bowes Inc. The piece is actually a set of instructions for installation, which Spencer staffers are executing in collaboration with the Sol LeWitt Foundation.

“I think one of the most exciting things about LeWitt’s work is, he’s always been very supportive of other artists,” says Saralyn Reece Hardy, the museum’s director. “To have his work executed and drawn by other people is such a wonderful act of sharing — sharing the finished work and the ways in which a finished work comes to be, watching it emerge and then to have this concept

Before installation began, staffers worked to remove any imperfections from the space, including divots and nail holes. A light skim coating was applied to create a level surface, followed by five layers of paint to give the wall texture.

Instructions for the piece include a red square on a yellow background, a blue circle on a red background and a yellow triangle on a blue background.

Hardy has taken daily trips down to Gallery 316 since work commenced on the project Nov. 10. Even after just a few days, the wall has developed into a “rich surface,” she reports.

LeWitt, who died at age 78 in 2007, was a prolific creator who worked in a variety of mediums, including drawing, printmaking, painting, photography and sculpture. He made a name for himself in the 1960s with an unorthodox approach that emphasized ideas and concepts over form and emotion.

“When an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes a machine that makes the art,” LeWitt wrote in a 1967 essay.

Ex-cancer patient resents hubby’s activities Dear Annie: I am an active person, and my wife used to be until a bout with cancer. She no longer has the physical endurance she once did. I try to make this work with shorter trips, shorter walks and simpler activities.

But when I want to do something that she is unable to do, she becomes angry and resentful that I would even consider going fishing or golfing, taking a hunting trip, gardening or going into the city to visit friends for the day. I do ask her to do all of these things, but she usually says no.

I’m trying not to be insensitive. I clean our home and cook and do all the yard work and the heavy lifting.

But she says that’s not “help”; it’s what any husband ought to do.

My wife holds up her

Annie’s Mailbox

end of our life’s bargain as best she can without complaint, and I have no complaint about her efforts. But I am not disabled, and neither is she. She does yoga and has a pottery class each week, but I have little interest in those activities. Yet when I ask whether she would like to “go do something for the day,” she has a small fit. And if I make plans to do something by myself or with a pal, she gets angry.

Catch up on ‘Mad Men’ before finale The often-hungover Don Draper may be a stranger to the crack of dawn, but your DVR might find him there anyway.

AMC heralds the spring 2015 final half-season of “Mad Men” by repeating every single episode of the acclaimed series on Sunday mornings (5 a.m., AMC).

That’s what you call an eyeopener.

O Comedy Central may pride itself on edgy comedy like “Key & Peele” and “The Daily Show,” but it often gets very good ratings for specials featuring an olds c h o o l prop comic who works with puppets. “Jeff Dunham: All Over the Map” (8 p.m.) follows Dunham and his ensemble of characters — Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Peanut, Jose Jalapeno, Bubba J and Walter — as they embark on a five-continent tour.

O The second season of “The Paradise” on “Masterpiece Classic” (7 p.m., PBS, check local listings) concludes with the plucky Denise expanding her dreams beyond the confines of the department store. The BBC declined to produce a third season of this pleasant melodrama, so consider this closing time for “The Paradise.”

O For those keeping score, “Mulaney,” while not technically canceled, will move out of prime time to 6:30 p.m. next Sunday, Nov. 23, a spot where it will probably be pre-empted when NFL games run late.

“Bob’s Burgers” (8:30 p.m., Fox) takes its place tonight.

Tonight’s other highlights

O Scheduled on “60 Minutes”

(6 p.m., CBS): Boston’s Archbishop Sean O’Malley discusses the impact of Pope Francis; the global groundwater crisis; a profile of Mandy Patinkin.

O The mystery behind the plane crash death of Elizabeth’s predecessor deepens on “Madam Secretary” (7 p.m., CBS).

O Alicia balks at campaign advice on “The Good Wife” (8 p.m., CBS).

O A rescue mission returns the group to familiar terrain on “The Walking Dead” (8 p.m., AMC).

O A woman overdoses in a rehab center on “CSI” (9 p.m., CBS).

O The FBI closes in on Victoria on “Revenge” (9 p.m., ABC).

O Noah discovers new sides to Alison’s character on “The Affair” (9 p.m., Showtime).

Watching the world go by is not something I want to do. Is it fair for me to forgo the things I love because she can’t or won’t join in? — Actively Confused Dear Confused: You shouldn’t have to give up all activities because your wife is not able to join you, but how long has it been since she finished her cancer treatments? You might be expecting too much for this moment in time.

Please understand that your wife is sad that she cannot do these things, so she resents when you make plans without her. It might help for the two of you to speak to her oncologist and outline what activities are appropriate. Then try to compromise.

Dear Annie: You frequently publish letters

about women’s health.

What about men’s health?

Your female readers must care about the health of their fathers, brothers, husbands and sons. I see very little in the media about men’s health, and yet men, on average, live five years less than women.

Would you please advise your readers, both women and men, to urge men to get annual physical checkups at a doctor’s office, including prostate exams? — R.O. Dear R.O.: You are right that men’s health is important and should be taken seriously. We hope all men will get regular checkups to keep their bodies and minds in good shape.
