LAWRENCE POLICE DEPARTMENT DEMOGRAPHICS

Some minority groups’ numbers match city; some fall short

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib believes it’s important for his department to look like the community it serves.

Khatib

Considering Lawrence’s African-American and American Indian populations, the department is on par with its diversification efforts. However, in the past years, the number of Asian and Hispanic officers

within the department has fallen sharply.

Khatib said he’s pleased the department has been able to increase its number of African-American officers, but there is work to be done within other

demographics and the challenge can be an uphill battle.

“Diversity helps attract diversity,” Khatib said in a written response. “So, we’re hoping that diversity will continue to increase as the

community sees themselves reflected in the department.”

According to 2014 data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau, Lawrence’s population is 90,194.

he theme of this year’s Adornment Art Show and Sale is “Home is Where the Art is,” and for 19-year-old Van Go artist Jax Young, the concept couldn’t be more fitting.

“It is a workspace, but in a lot of ways, it’s like a family, too,” Young says of the social service agency that has served as his home away from home for nearly four years now.

Van Go, which provides arts-based job training to high-needs and underserved youth in the Lawrence area, is celebrating the work of Young and his fellow apprentice artists Saturday at its annual Adornment event. The popular art show also functions as a fundraiser for Van Go, and this year, organizers are hoping to generate $35,000 in sales — a

The funds, she said, go toward general operating costs that allow Van Go to continue its after-school and summer programs for local teens and young adults. Their work will be displayed and sold during Saturday’s 18th annual Adornment, slated for 7 p.m. at Van Go, 715 New Jersey St. This year’s handcrafted pieces include everything from lamps, lightboxes and coasters to

Indians — 2.6 percent, or four officers.

As far as the female demographic is concerned, Khatib said, in 2015 women accounted for 11 percent of the department’s workforce, just short of the 11.7 percent average outlined in the Benchmark Survey.

Currently, four women hold the rank of sergeant or a civilian equivalent of the rank within LPD, the survey says.

Diversity within the department’s leadership is also important, Khatib said. In the past five years, two women and two minorities have been promoted to supervisory positions, he said.

In addition, the department employs two American Indian sergeants, a man and a woman, alongside two American Indian officers, Khatib said.

All four were Haskell Indian Nations University students who joined the department, and several are still involved with the university, serving as role models and recruiters, he said.

The LPD’s percentage of black officers has increased 1.8 percent since 2011, the survey says.

Currently, the percentage

I think some of it has to do with the fact that in minority populations, there is a higher distrust of law enforcement than in the majority population.

That’s the reality backdrop.”

within LPD is greater than that of Lawrence’s population.

Similarly, the department’s percentage of American Indian officers also sits above the city’s percentage for the same population. Over the past five years, the department’s “Other” category within the survey has remained constant.

However, the department’s Hispanic and Asian populations have decreased by 1.6 percent and .8 percent, respectively.

At no point in the past five years has LPD’s number of Hispanic or Asian officers come within 2 percentage points of the city’s population for the same demographics.

“While I am pleased we have been able to increase our percentage of African-American officers, I think there is more work to do,” Khatib said.

There aren’t any specific target numbers when it comes to the

department’s demographics, Khatib said.

Simply put, the goal is to attract diversity, though adding several more Hispanic or Asian officers is something Khatib said he would like to see.

“I think those populations are on the rise in our community,” he said.

“So we need to pay attention to this as well.”

With respect to increasing LPD’s number of Hispanic officers, Khatib said the department could use men and women who speak Spanish. And in an effort to hire Spanish-speaking officers, LPD has offered hiring bonuses for those who are bilingual, he said.

“We’ve had some success, but not what we had hoped for,” he said.

Attracting a diverse array of applicants to a police department can be challenging, Khatib said.

“I think some of it has to do with the fact that in minority populations, there is a higher distrust

L awrence J ournal -W orld of law enforcement than in the majority population,” he said. “That’s the reality backdrop.”

As such, finding minority recruits must be a “targeted effort, a general recruitment effort and a word-of-mouth effort,” he added.

In a past training exercise, Khatib said he learned that once the ball is rolling, it’s easier to keep the momentum going.

Within a police department, it can take between five and 10 years worth of experience for an officer to be promoted to sergeant, Khatib said.

But once minorities and women begin rising to supervisory positions, the impact can be seen with new recruits.

“The minorities and women who may be interested in applying like to see minorities and women at the department they are applying to and that there is career development and upwards mobility in the department,” he said. “That sends a positive message and may increase interest.”

Representatives of the city of Eudora and Douglas County Rural Water District No. 4 are in talks to resolve a decade-long dispute about the delivery of water service in the city’s southern growth area.

The talks come on the heels of a summary judgment favoring Eudora that was issued Sept. 29 in Federal District Court in Kansas City, Kan. In making the ruling, Judge Julie Robinson said the city could go forward with its effort to secure the right to provide water service within its city limits that is part of RWD No. 4, and that the water district has no protection through a federally guaranteed loan it secured in 2004 to deny the transition. Any agreement would require Eudora to compensate RWD No. 4 for its loss of service area.

Although reluctant to talk about the status or details of the talks, Eudora city officials characterized them as friendly and productive. Both City Manager Barack Matite and Mayor Tim Reazin said the goal of the talks was to find a long-term solution that allows both parties to confidently plan for customers’ future service needs.

“My big thing is that we are good neighbors and

‘‘

— Eudora Mayor Tim Reazin

that we have an amicable solution,” Reazin said.

“My goal is that we come to an agreement that long term doesn’t hurt our customers or theirs.”

Clifford Reusch, RWD No. 4 administrator, added little more on the talks. The goal of the water district was to ensure its continued existence, he said.

Reazin said the plan was to wrap up negotiations in January or February. His final goal was to end the dispute through negotiations among local representatives from both parties and put an end to years of legal wrangling that has racked up large bills for the city and water district. He is now looking into the city’s total bill for the dispute, he said.

“I know it’s a ridiculous amount when you think how easily this could have been solved with open communication and an understanding of each party’s goals,” he said.

Robinson’s September ruling is the latest decision in a legal battle that stretches back to 2007.

The water service dispute traces to a time before the Great Recession

when both the boundaries of the water district and the city were expanding. The city, which regularly added 100 homes a year in the early 2000s, annexed south of Kansas Highway 10 along the County Road 1061 corridor. But as the city grew to the south, it found the water district was already in the corridor.

RWD No. 4 had also armed itself against city encroachment with a $250,000 private loan backed by a U.S. Department of Agriculture guarantee, which along with a $1 million loan through the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, financed improvements that enabled the water district to obtain and distribute water from a Johnson County rural water district.

In a memo to the water district’s board, thenRWD No. 4 administrator Scott Schultz wrote that the advantage of making use of the federally guaranteed loan, which would have higher closing costs and interest rates, was that federal law would prevent cities from

Hope for fans The University of Kansas football team’s win over Texas on Saturday is cause for optimism.

F

ootball may be just a game but that doesn’t mean it’s not important to the national standing and reputation of the University of Kansas.

For that reason, it is hard to overestimate the importance of Saturday’s 24-21 win over the University of Texas at Memorial Stadium. In the last seven minutes of the hard-fought contest, the Jayhawks went from almost assuredly losing their 20th straight Big 12 football game and 24th consecutive game against a Football Bowl Subdivision opponent to pulling off a shocking comeback, giving second-year head coach David Beaty his first conference win and breathing new life and optimism into a program that entered the weekend ranked among the worst in college football.

Beaty inherited a mess. Kansas had won 12 games and lost 48 under three coaches in the five years before Beaty took over.

Questionable recruiting decisions by predecessors Turner Gill and Charlie Weis meant Beaty took over a program with just 65 scholarship players trying to compete with FBS teams that had 85.

Kansas fans and officials knew it would take time, and patience was the mantra when Beaty’s team suffered through an 0-12 season in 2015. But when the team managed just one win — over lower-level Rhode Island — in its first 10 games of 2016, there was restlessness. That peaked when Kansas lost to Iowa State on Nov. 12.

Iowa State came to Lawrence also in rebuilding mode, with just one win in 2016 under first-year head coach Matt Campbell. The game was thought to be Beaty’s best shot to win his first Big 12 game, a measuring stick of the progress the program was making. When Iowa State won 31-24, serious questions surfaced about Beaty’s ability to get the Kansas program headed in the right direction.

What a difference a week makes. Saturday’s comeback against Texas, a 23-point favorite who had not lost to Kansas since 1938, was a sure sign of progress for the football program. In one fate-filled fourth quarter, Charlie Strong lost his grip as Texas’ head coach and Beaty found his at Kansas.

The Texas upset gives fans hope for what is possible for Beaty and the Jayhawks — both next week against rival Kansas State and in the 2017 season.

Trump should listen to these two Washington — Before President-elect Donald Trump brings in the bulldozers to “drain the swamp” in Washington, I hope he will consider the career achievements of two people who embody the nation’s tradition of bipartisan foreign policy leadership, Zbigniew Brzezinski and Brent Scowcroft.

The two former national security advisers came from vastly different worlds to join in constructing the foreign policy tradition Trump seems ready to demolish.

Brzezinski, now 88, is a Polish refugee who served Democratic President Jimmy Carter. Scowcroft, 91, is a Mormon ex-military officer from Utah who worked for Republican Presidents Gerald Ford and George H.W. Bush.

Both were Cold War hawks who were honored recently by Defense Secretary Ashton Carter with the Distinguished Public Service Award, the Pentagon’s highest award for civilians. But both were also outspoken critics of the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 — not the belated and muffled opposition expressed by Trump, but the kind that cost them friendships and access.

What these two shared was a vision of an outwardleaning America that led a global network of security alliances and trading partnerships. This system, anchored by NATO and alliances with Japan and South Korea, was often described as the “liberal international order.”

With Trump’s election, this global architec-

“

What these two shared was a vision of an outward-leaning America that led a global network of security alliances and trading partnerships.” ture seems to be cracking.

Trump is so inexperienced that it’s hard to predict just where his foreign policy views will settle out. But many of his supporters (and kindred spirits abroad) are in open revolt against what they see as the menace of globalization.

Trump should think carefully about what he would cast aside. This is the structure of enduring American power. It has been built on military strength, yes, but also on the generosity and openness of the American system. Our “soft power” was expressed in the biblical injunction carved on the gates of the American University of Beirut in 1866: “That they may have life and have it abundantly.” Whatever egregious mistakes America may have made over the past 150 years, people still thought our country represented that aspiration.

The “globalization” that Trump supporters oppose is

nearly impossible to undo on an economic level: Today’s corporations and financial markets are instantly connected and integrated. But on a political level, the global system is already unraveling, and that should worry Trump, not cheer him. As this American-led system weakens, the beneficiaries will be a rising China and a pugnacious Russia. Globalization may need a “course correction,” as President Obama said Wednesday, but that requires continued American leadership.

Here’s where I wish Trump would listen to Brzezinski and Scowcroft and the traditional foreign policy consensus they represent. Eight years ago, I moderated a conversation with the two of them that was published as “America and the World.” I spoke with them this week about Trump.

Scowcroft spoke at a luncheon in his honor hosted by the Aspen Strategy Group, a bipartisan foreign policy organization that epitomizes the elite that Trump wants to overthrow. Scowcroft, frail and struggling for words to convey the lessons of a lifetime of public service, implored the group to cast aside their misgivings and put the country first. “If you’re asked to serve, please do,” said Scowcroft. “This man needs help badly.”

Brzezinski was honored a week ago at the Pentagon.

Carter described him as “one of the finest strategic thinkers and policymakers of our time.” He said Brzezinski had understood that America must “live in an in-

secure world with ‘dignity, with idealism, with steadfastness.’”

I asked Brzezinski what advice he would give Trump. “Mr. President,” he said, composing the memo in his head, “don’t assume that strong verbiage conveys strength. It has to be convincing. Be honest and frank, but don’t kiss ass.

You could do the world a service if you said to President Putin: Don’t be an adventurer, especially when you’re carrying a loaded weapon.”

In Trump’s eagerness to show he really means to bring change, he has been signaling disdain for all the traditional centers of power, from environmental scientists to economists, from diplomats to generals. Some Americans who resented these traditional sources of power must enjoy watching the Faculty Club burn to the ground.

But Trump needs to be careful. Unless he’s very foolish, he will want to be a good and successful president. He inherited a nation that is still the world’s only superpower. New reports last week said Trump offered Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a combative and very political retired Army officer, the national security adviser post held by Scowcroft and Brzezinski. Is he a person who can sustain the structure of alliances and power built over 70 years? Or is he someone who would undermine that structure? That’s the right question for Flynn and Trump.

OLD HOME TOWN From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 21, 1916: l “Chancellor Strong is years back at the University today ago following nearly two weeks IN 1916 spent in the east. ‘I was forced to do some explaining as to why Kansas and the west went for Wilson,’ Chancellor Strong said this morning. ‘The people in the east were stunned at the result. I explained Wilson’s big vote through this section by saying that it was the pacifist vote and the women. And the women were for Wilson because they favored peace.’” l “The skeleton of a man believed to be from five hundred to two thousand years old has been dug from an Indian mound on the T. J. Phillips farm, two miles southeast of Arkansas City, by Bert Moore, formerly Cowley county assessor, and a party of friends. Many Indian relics were obtained from the mound. J. A. Sterling and W. H. Martin, anthropologists from the University of Kansas, will bring the skeleton to the University museum.”

prevent cities from poaching the district’s customers during its 20-year debt retirement schedule. That memo and Schultz’s comment that the project could go ahead solely with the KDHE loan were cited in later court rulings.

The federally guaranteed loan has been the center of the extended litigation that began in 2007 when the water district filed a federal lawsuit in Kansas City, Kan., seeking to protect its service area from the city.

That lawsuit was filed after the city informed RWD No. 4 it was going to sue to obtain water service for that part of the district in the city limits.

At issue at the trial was whether the loan was “necessary,” as the state statute allowing the use of the federal loan program required. At the 2009 trial,

M IDWEST TAX & FINANCIAL, INC.

COFFEE TALK with Tim Leach

the jury was instructed that the loan didn’t have to be necessary to provide the water district protection from poaching. On appeal, the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals found in September 2011 that the necessary language in the Kansas law was relevant, vacated the jury verdict and remanded the case back to the district court for retrial for the purpose of determining if the water district’s use of the federally guaranteed loan was necessary “for the purposes” of the organization.

No new trial was scheduled because both the city’s and water district’s attorneys asked the district court for summary judgment. After the Kansas Legislature in 2012 struck the “necessary” language in state statute as a condition of water districts obtaining federally secured loans, water district lawyers argued the “necessary” requirement was moot.

However, U.S. district and the appeals courts found the legislation couldn’t be

applied retroactively. The appeals court also found Robinson should make a summary judgment in the case in favor of Eudora, which she did.

The water district’s response in July 2013 was to secure reaffirmation notices of the loan guarantee from the USDA and of the loan from the bank that made the $250,000 loan. With the reaffirmations dated after the state statute was amended, the water district once again asserted it had federal protection against any attempt by the city to pursue acquisition of its service area within the Eudora city limits.

In her September response to a Eudora request for summary judgment, Robinson rejected the water district’s position, finding the USDA reaffirmation was “a legal nullity” with no bearing on the early appeals court ruling.

All three historians made the case that, at least in the instances we chose, the USA didn’t so much heal as figure out a way to pass the pain on to others in the name of healing. Even as cataclysmic events came to their official end, aftershocks and adjustments followed — sometimes in violence, sometimes in votes.

And in their own ways, all three moments reveal that we’re still coming to terms with the issues laid bare, from racial violence and racially based resentment to distrust of government and conflicts over angry free speech vs. law and order.

The post-election confusion over the fate of Obamacare has only complicated the already difficult choices faced by middle class consumers who are worried they can’t afford their health insurance options this fall.

Premiums and deductibles soared in many parts of the country after the departure of several large insurers from the Affordable Care Act exchanges for 2017.

That has led many to fret about how to either afford insurance or how to get by without it.

Loralea Grey, whose husband is self employed, says they are living a “middle-class nightmare” because of the law. They grew used to the necessary sacrifices to afford the premiums and out-ofpocket costs for their “catastrophic” insurance before the ACA, she says. This year they were facing a premium increase of nearly 40% with a $7,000 deductible per family member.

They’ve decided they can’t scrimp anymore to afford plans through the ACA exchange.

“How is this possible or allowable?” she asks. “When I contacted the Oregon insurance commissioner, I received a response back telling me I should feel free to shop around; as if I wasn’t smart enough to have already done that?”

ACA-funded “navigators” and the call center for the federal Healthcare.gov deal with thousands of people a day with challenges finding coverage, and the most find solutions, says Andy Slavitt, acting administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

“For the majority of people, coverage is affordable and coverage is something that changes their lives in many ways,” says Slavitt. “I won’t say there isn’t an overall problem with health care affordability in this country” — but drug and hospital prices are part of the problem, too, he says.

Some of those worried about affordability questioned whether they needed to sign up for insurance after Donald Trump’s election as president.

“People would call and say, ‘We have a new president. He’s going to repeal it, so I don’t have to buy insurance,” says Ronnell Nolan, CEO of Health Agents for Ameri-

This isn’t the first time Americans have been torn asunder.

Historians discuss how divisions were handled in the past.

Greg Toppo @gtoppo USATODAY

Even a cursory look at a U.S. electoral map from two weeks ago shows a striking red/blue divide that in most cases separates big cities and coastal areas from the rest of America. As angry protesters rage in the streets, it’s easy to conclude that we’ve never been so irreconcilably divided. It seems as if Americans are in no mood to heal.

Indeed, a recent survey found 58% of those who supported Democrat Hillary Clinton said they “have a hard time respecting someone” who supported President-elect Donald Trump, according to the Pew Research Center. Four in 10 Trump voters said they had a hard time respecting Clinton backers.

First major snowfall to wallop northeastern U.S. Good news for skiers as Vt. could get a foot Aamer Madhani @AamerISmad USA TODAY

The season’s first major storm is forecast to hit parts of the Northeast on Sunday, dumping several inches of snow in parts of Pennsylvania, New York and Vermont.

The storm system, which already dumped more than a foot of snow across parts of Minneso-

ta, is likely to bring the heaviest accumulations in the Adirondacks, which could see as much as 2 feet of snow by late Monday, as well as the eastern Great Lakes snowbelt.

In northwestern Pennsylvania, the snowfall — which started Saturday — was forecast to continue through Sunday before tapering off Monday morning, according to the National Weather Service. Near Lake Erie, gusts up to 45 mph coupled with the expected snowfall could hamper visibility and make driving conditions difficult, the weather service said.

In Vermont, National Weather Service lead meteorologist John Goff said the storm could bring 4 to 8 inches of snow to the western slope of the Green Mountains and surrounding towns.

Goff said at elevations above 2,000 feet — where the ski resorts are — the storm could drop 8 to 12 inches of snow.

“There will be a lot of variation from base to summit,” Goff said. “It will be welcome for skiers, the first appreciable snow fall of the year.”

Parts of western New York could see as much as a foot of snow by Monday. Southern Erie,

Pence: Obamacare is a Trump priority Health care will be first ‘out of the gate’ as meetings continue Susan Page @susanpage USA TODAY

President-elect Donald Trump, huddling at his New Jersey golf resort with an eclectic procession of potential appointees for his administration, is determined to tackle the repeal of President Obama’s signature health-care legislation as soon as he’s inaugurated, Vice President-elect Mike Pence said Sunday.

“Decisions have been made by the president-elect that he wants to focus out of the gate on repealing Obamacare and beginning the process of replacing Obamacare with the kind of free-market solutions that he campaigned on,” Pence said on Fox News Sunday.

That is likely to set up an immediate showdown with congressional Democrats. “They’re going to regret the day they try to repeal” the Affordable Care Act, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer countered on ABC’s This Week. “So when we oppose Trump on values or this presidency takes a dark divisive turn, we’re going to do it tooth and nail.”

Meanwhile, Trump continued to confer privately at his Bedminster golf club with a dozen visitors amid furious speculation about whom he might appoint to such critical jobs as heading the State and Defense departments.

Among those who met with Trump on Sunday were retired Marine Corps general John Kelly,

President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence speak briefly to the media as they arrive at the clubhouse at Trump International Golf Club on Sunday for meetings.

The president-elect also met with Hollywood power broker Ari Emanuel, who happens to be the brother of Rahm Emanuel, the mayor of Chicago and a former White House chief of staff for President Obama.

“King of Hollywood,” Trump said, pointing at Ari Emanuel, when he arrived. When he escorted Emanuel out after their meeting, Trump said, “Great guy; great friend of mine.” It wasn’t immediately what role he might have in mind for Emanuel.

and eight months later the USA adopted the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which outlawed slavery nationwide.

Our “national story” is that we did, indeed, begin healing that day in April 1865, said University of Richmond historian Edward Ayers. “When you think about the stories we like to tell, we like to tell the story about Appomattox — Lee and Grant shaking hands, Grant sending those Southern boys home with their guns and horses, and Lee handing his sword and so forth.”

But even a casual student of history might tell you the reality was much more complex.

Lee’s surrender and Grant’s gracious response were indeed significant, said Ayers. And considering how other nations’ civil wars have ended, “it’s an accomplishment.” But many historians believe Reconstruction and the 12-year “bloodbath” waged against Southern blacks that followed the war showed that the violence of the Civil War wasn’t done playing out.

Peace was bought “at the expense of black Americans,” Ayers said.

Under the terms of Reconstruction, the white South maintained control of the region, while the North “got to run the country,” he said.

2. The assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., April 1968 In the mid-1960s, a decade of expanding rights for AfricanAmericans culminated in the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

The measures, shepherded by President Lyndon Johnson, were approved just months after the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, who had pushed for expanded civil rights.

They effectively began the transformation of a century-long voting pattern in the South, turning whites against the Democratic Party and, in the 1960s, stirring intense passions against AfricanAmerican civil rights leaders.

King, an Atlanta preacher who rose to prominence in the late 1950s and who delivered the “I Have a Dream” speech during the March on Washington in 1963, was one of the key leaders of the movement, spearheading efforts for desegregation, voting rights and unionization.

On April 4, 1968, visiting Memphis to support striking sanitation workers, he was shot and killed at a local motel.

The assassination sparked riots in cities nationwide, and many Americans of both races looked to Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, JFK’s

younger brother, for leadership and a measure of solace.

While JFK “was remembered far more fondly in death than he was in life,” said Yohuru Williams, a professor of history at Fairfield University, “there was still this idea that with Bobby Kennedy you had somebody who would continue that legacy.”

The younger Kennedy, then a senator from New York and an insurgent candidate for the Democratic nomination in the 1968 presidential election, had worked on anti-poverty programs in both urban and rural America. He “would have been a stabilizing influence,” Williams said. “In a lot of ways, it was Bobby Kennedy who represented the hopes for a reconciliation of some substance.”

Then, exactly nine weeks after King’s death, Kennedy was killed in the kitchen of a Los Angeles hotel ballroom. He’d been campaigning in California — moments before his death, Kennedy had addressed supporters after winning the state’s Democratic primary.

Stunned Democrats, facing the prospect of running against Republican Richard M. Nixon, who’d narrowly lost to JFK just eight years earlier, failed to coalesce around their establishment candidate, Vice President Hubert Humphrey. That summer in Chicago, the televised spectacle of a chaotic convention, in which protesters in the streets clashed violently with police, terrified many Americans, Williams said.

Furthering divisions, George Wallace, the segregationist former governor of Alabama, ran under the banner of the American Independent Party.

A former Republican vice president and senator from California, Nixon had sought to appeal to a “Silent Majority” of voters who, perhaps rightly, saw the country in turmoil, both because of the assassinations, the riots and mounting opposition the Vietnam War. 3. Nixon’s resignation and pardon by President Gerald Ford, August-September 1974 Six years later, Nixon was in trouble.

After more than a year of dogged pursuit by congressional lawmakers and the press following the 1972 Watergate break-in, Nixon finally resigned the presidency. In a bid to end the bitter conflict, President Ford pardoned Nixon for all federal crimes that he “committed or may have committed or taken part in” while in office.

Ford’s pardon derailed possible impeachment charges against Nixon related to the break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters.

The pardon “caused very concentrated and impassioned anger” nationwide, said Nixon scholar and historian Rick Perlstein. “I think that actually the Ford pardon did not heal America.”

Perlstein, author of the 2008 book Nixonland, added, “Basically what Ford was saying was that you could get away with crimes if you were powerful enough. It’s one of the most dangerous tendencies in American political culture. He was implicitly saying, ‘I don’t have faith in the American justice system.’ ” Though the pardon took a bruising criminal trial off the table, Nixon’s wrongdoing “was kind of left hanging,” Perlstein said. “I think if anything, it contributed to an American sense that the government couldn’t be trusted.”

A criminal trial “would have been exhausting, as all conflicts that genuinely address serious wounds are. But there would have been catharsis. That’s why we have a justice system.”

could be announced in short order. “We’re going to have a great day,” Trump told them. “Great people coming. You’ll see. Great people.”

On Monday, spokesman Jason Miller confirmed, Trump will meet with former Texas governor Rick Perry, a rival for the Republican nomination who has been mentioned as a possibility to head the Agriculture or Veterans Affairs departments, or even the Pentagon. The meeting was first reported by Bloomberg News.

Trump early Sunday posted a tweet praising another possible Defense secretary, retired Marine general James Mattis, “as very impressive.” “A true General’s General!” Trump wrote after

meeting with him on Saturday.

Mattis’ appointment to lead the Pentagon would require Congress to waive a federal law that requires the Defense secretary to have been out of uniform for at least seven years. Mattis retired from the Marines in 2013.

Another former general, Jack Keane, a former Army vice chief of staff who met with Pence last week, said on Sunday he had withdrawn his name from consideration for personal reasons.

His wife, Theresa, died last June.

Trump met Saturday with Mitt Romney, the GOP’s 2012 presidential nominee and a fierce critic of Trump during the campaign. “He is under active consideration to be secretary of State ... along with some other distinguished Americans,” Pence said Sunday.

Some Democrats were skeptical.

“A total head fake,” Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said on CNN’s State of the Union. “I think this is Donald Trump still being the entertainer, still running a show where he wants to build suspense and he alone knows who the contestant (is who) will be the winner.”

With just two months to go before the inauguration, Trump on Friday has announced he would nominate Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions for attorney general and Kansas Rep. Mike Pompeo for CIA director. For his White House staff, jobs that don’t require Senate confirmation, he has named retired general Michael Flynn as national security adviser, Breitbart News chairman Steve Bannon as strategist and Republican National Chairman Reince Priebus as chief of staff.

ca, who also sells insurance.

“While we hope for change and at least address the affordability, I tell them we have to act as if everything’s status quo.”

In North Carolina, the cheapest option with a “decent network” of doctors and hospitals for Jim Harrison’s 61-year-old wife would cost $1,421 a month with a $7,150 deductible. (He is on Medicare.) Because he is retired and that isn’t affordable, the family got a hardship exemption from the mandate to have insurance.

“So against our better judgment, she is going to go without health insurance next year ... but we put all of our retirement assets at risk should something catastrophic happen,” he says, “I never thought we would be in this situation.” Going without insurance does, indeed, put the family in financial danger.

The ACA prohibits insurers from discriminating against people with pre-existing conditions.

Before the law took effect, it was often impossible for people with cancer to afford or even get insurance. Kim Thiboldeaux, CEO of the patient group Cancer Support Community, warns against going without a plan that protects them from a costly disease or accident.

Among the alternatives: uCatastrophic insurance.

These plans, which typically had lower premiums and were mostly insurance against the costliest diseases or accidents, were grandfathered in the law for a couple years but are no longer an option to meet the insurance mandate.

Young people under age 30 can get catastrophic plans on the exchanges and people older than 30 can also buy these plans if they get a hardship exemption. So can those whose ACA plans are canceled because they don’t comply with the law. uChristian ministry health sharing plans. Most of these programs are available to people active in a Christian church or “fellowship” who sign statements that they abide by a Christian lifestyle. It is a large pool of money that similarly minded Christians pay into to reimburse certain health care costs other members face. Money is sent to the organization and either reimbursed to the member or sometimes directly to the health care provider.

Michael Gardner, spokesman for the Christian Medi-Share, emphasizes that it “isn’t insurance in any way shape or form.” uOther health sharing plans. You don’t have to be Christian to enroll in an ACA-

compliant health sharing plan by Liberty Direct, which tweaked the language a bit to make far more people eligible. Still, there is a “morals clause,” says Corey Durbin, president of Shared Health Alliance.

His company combines benefits that include a co-pay drug card and a $0 co-pay doctor program with any health share program for a package he says usually costs 50% less than traditional health insurance. uCommunity health centers. Community health centers that were once the only option for the uninsured seeking nonemergency care are serving millions more people than they did before the ACA, according to a report by the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research. The number of uninsured people they serve has declined only slightly, due in part to people who can’t afford co-payments and deductibles, said Maria-Elena Young, a co-author of the report.

GEORGE PETRAS AND JANET LOEHRKE, USA TODAY

Time may be running out for current economic upswing Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

History could portend a bad omen for President-elect Donald Trump. In a reality that is more important after the election: recessions are more common under Republican presidents.

Every Republican president since Teddy Roosevelt in the early 1900’s endured a recession in their first term, according to an analysis from Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at stock research firm CFRA. Four Republican presidents suffered through two recessions while in office and Republican President Dwight Eisenhower presided over three.

Meanwhile, Democrats have largely skated past the recession quicksand. Four in five Democratic presidents saw no recessions during their terms since 1945, Stovall says.

While history isn’t gospel, the track record makes the odds of a recession during President Trump’s term all the more likely, Stovall says. “From a probability perspective, a recession is very likely in President Trump’s first term in office,” he says.

Interestingly, recessions aren’t

the only indicator of economic slowdown that appear during times of Republican presidents.

Real GDP growth, a measure of economic activity in the U.S., averaged 3.33% during the 64 years and 16 presidential terms going back to President Truman in the mid-1940s, according to a 2013 research paper by professors of economics Alan Blinder and Mark Watson at Princeton University. With a Republican in the White House, though, the economy’s growth slowed to 2.54%, the economists found. With a Democrat in office, growth jumped to 4.35% on average. A variety of other economic indicators, such as per capital GDP, stock market returns, real wages and the change in the unemployment rate, are also more robust with a Democratic president, the economists found. Unemployment fell by 0.8 percentage points with a Democratic president on average, while it rose 1.1% with a Republican.

“The U.S. economy has performed better when the President of the United States is a Democrat rather than a Republican, almost regardless of how one measures performance,” according to the report titled “Presidents and the Economy: A Forensic Investigation.”

Academics and market historians are trying to figure out why the economy tends to stall out with a Republican president. ReZACH GIBSON, search offers a GETTY IMAGES few suggestions, including: uRandom ‘good luck.’

Democrats have had the fortune of being in office when favorable random shocks go their way during their terms, Blinder and Watson found. Big drops in oil prices, positive boosts in productivity and also optimistic consumer outlooks tend to occur during Democratic administrations, they said. None of these factors is tied directly to the actions of the president, the professors found, These three factors explain upwards of 62% of the

better economic performance. uLag times for policies to kick in. Evidence pointing to better economic growth under Democrats is an illusion created by the timing of when presidents enter office, says Timothy Kane at the Hoover Institution think tank at Stanford University. Factoring in the one-year lag between the time a new president is elected and when the policy effects kick in, “there is no statistically significant advantage for either party in the White House,” Kane says. Presidents inherit problems that were created by policy decisions before they were elected, Kane says. uThe business cycle. The economy follows a natural progression of expansion, peaking and contraction which is more powerful than the president, Stovall says. “I think the business cycle trumps the presidential cycle, and Fed policy is most important of all,” he says. Currently, leading indicators like housing starts, consumer confidence and the Conference Board’s Leading Economic Index don’t signal a looming recession.

But the cycle inevitably turns, it’s just unknown when. Trump faces a ticking clock in terms of the ongoing economic recovery’s life, Stovall says. The economic expansion period the U.S. is in now is 89 months old making it the fourth longest expansion of the 21 since 1902, Stovall says.

Coal’s decline may continue even under Trump Shale gas makes it difficult to reverse black rock trend Bill Loveless

Special for USA TODAY

During his campaign for the White House, President-elect Donald Trump promised to eliminate regulations that target coalfired power plants, one of the primary causes of carbon emissions reENERGY sponsible for climate change.

For Trump, a climate-change skeptic, getting rid of the Obama administration’s Clean Power Plan, which would curb carbon emissions from power plants by 32% by 2030, would give a boost to the declining U.S. coal industry and its decimated workforce across Appalachia.

Even if the next president were to succeed, he would probably not reverse a years-long movement away from coal in the U.S. electric power industry, the biggest consumer of the black rock, according to the head of one of the nation’s leading electric utilities.

“If he were able to do that, I don’t know really how much impact it would have because we’re

Coal miners load equipment on trailers at the Sufco Coal Mine, 30 miles east of Salina, Utah.

Experts say market forces often make it difficult to quickly develop new coal plants. moving ahead and rebalancing our portfolio,” Nick Akins, the president and CEO of American Electric Power, said recently.

“I think it’s going to be very difficult for new coal-fired generation to get developed,” he said.

Obama-era policies requiring reductions in emissions of carbon, mercury and other pollutants have contributed to coal’s loss of market share in the power sector.

Even more significant has been record U.S. production of cheap shale gas, thanks to hydraulic

fracturing and other technologies, plus the slow but steady penetration of wind and solar energy into power markets.

“It’s a seven-year construction cycle for a coal unit; 15 years for a nuclear unit,” Akins said in a phone call from AEP’s Columbus, Ohio, headquarters. “You can develop a natural gas plant in two to three years, with a lot less risk for shareholders, and the price of natural gas as a fuel source is still substantially low.

“And there are areas of the country that benefit from low-

cost renewable fuels, particularly wind, and solar continues to come down as well, particularly utility-scale solar. Those are areas that will continue to develop.”

For AEP, which has 5.4 million customers in 11 states, coal’s share of the company’s generating capacity has fallen from 71% in 2005 to about 47% in 2017.

Over that time, gas capacity has risen from 20% to 27%, and renewable energy has jumped from 3% to 13%.

The switch is happening even faster across the USA, where gas

surpasses coal as a fuel for power plants.

All told, the U.S. Energy Information Administration expects gas to provide an average of 34% of the electricity generated in the USA in 2016, compared with 30% for coal.

Also figuring heavily in utility investment decisions are changing expectations among customers, especially demands for “clean energy” among younger customers.

“There’s no doubt that there’s an element of environmental stewardship that continues to be part of the fabric of our investment thesis,” Akins said.

Trump’s bid to reverse Obama environmental policies may provide a reprieve for some older coal power plants, though gas prices, if they remain low, will probably cut into those units’ operating time, according to the utility chief.

Trump’s commitment to promote new infrastructure may benefit companies such as AEP, whose 40,000-mile electric transmission network is the largest in the USA. AEP spends more than $3 billion a year on transmission improvements, including projects designed to bring new renewable and distributed energy to market.

As for communities where AEP has shuttered coal power plants, the company works with economic-development officials in states such as Kentucky to see whether the sites can be marketed for new manufacturing.

SANTA MONICA , CALIF. Don’t get the idea that Lin-Manuel Miranda is going all Hollywood with Disney’s Moana.

Even before Miranda unveiled his musical Hamilton on Broadway in 2015, starring as founding father Alexander Hamilton in the pop culture phenomenon, he was deep into songwriting for the Pacific Island-themed movie (in theaters Wednesday).

“The irony being, I got this Moana job seven months before anyone had ever heard of Hamilton, before our first rehearsals. I had been writing (Moana) concurrently with Hamilton,” says Miranda, 36, settling into a suite at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel after a hug from passing Moana star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. “So I guess I went Hollywood before you even knew who I was.”

We definitely know who Miranda is now after his rocket-rise to fame in what he dryly calls “the little indie show that could,” which won 11 Tony Awards and a Pulitzer Prize.

The New York-born playwright/composer, who is of

Kanye West gave a memorable rant at his concert in Sacramento before cutting his Saint Pablo show short Saturday night. He complimented Kid Cudi and dissed Beyoncé and Jay Z. “I been sent here to give y’all my truth, even at the risk of my own life, my own success, my own career,” he said to concertgoers, many of whom later responded to his early exit with an expletive-laden anti-West chant.

Miranda even had help from his Hamilton castmates when he was working on Moana: “It was all hands on deck.”

Puerto Rican descent, says he was flying his Polynesian flag throughout the creation of Hamilton after being hired by Moana directors Ron Clements and John Musker in 2014.

Miranda worked closely with his Moana collaborators, score creator Mark Mancina and musician Opetaia Foa‘i (founder of the world music band Te Vaka). He’d put out Pacific Islands beats over Skype with the team twice a week, wearing his period ruffled shirt before Hamilton’s evening curtain call.

“I’m sure they must have taken screengrabs of that,” Miranda says. “But Moana became my oasis as Hamilton exploded.”

It was a handy oasis: Hamilton cast members provided “scratch” recordings for Moana songs. His

stage wife, Phillipa Soo, demonstrated How Far I’ll Go for Auli’i Cravalho, Moana’s heroine. Chris Jackson (George Washington) laid down You’re Welcome, the signature song for Johnson’s Maui.

“I found these great singers in the building,” says Miranda, whose cast is thanked in the credits. “It was all hands on deck.”

Miranda added his own scratch vocals to Foa‘i’s We Know the Way about the voyaging life of Moana’s ancestors. To his surprise, his voice was incorporated into the final song. Miranda says he was “very grateful” for the honor, a reflection of the diverse collaboration.

Miranda has relocated to London to begin Disney’s Mary Poppins Returns as the lamplighter Jack alongside Emily Blunt as Mary Poppins. He will reveal only that he plays a Londoner for the project, which will be in theaters for Christmas 2018.

He also has plans for a live-action version of his all-time favorite Disney movie musical, The Little Mermaid, with composer Alan Menken. And the Weinstein Company is developing a screenplay for Miranda’s first musical, 2008’s In the Heights.

But Miranda will never take his eyes off his beloved Hamilton, tweeting how “proud” he was of the cast for sending Vice President-elect Mike Pence an unscripted message of peace after Friday night’s performance. He also has slight Hamilton envy.

“Every time I see a performance, I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t I get a little jealous,” he says. “I don’t think that role is done with me yet. It’s a matter of finding the time to jump back in.”

‘The battling wizards’ rule the box office

@briantruitt USA TODAY

Magical movies have hypnotized the box office.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, an adventure that spins off a new franchise within the Harry Potter cinematic universe, made its debut with $75 million, according to comScore.

The superhero sorcery-fest Doctor Strange, which topped the charts the past two weeks, slipped to No. 2 with $17.7 million ($181.5 million to date).

“It’s a tale of the battling wizards,” says comScore’s Paul Dergarabedian, referring to Beasts star Eddie Redmayne and Strange main man Benedict Cumberbatch. “In the post-election period, maybe just the super-fantastic worlds are the ones that people want to escape to.”

Beasts’ debut is the lowest yet

WARNER BROS. PICTURES

Newt (Eddie Redmayne), Thunderbird and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them are perched at No. 1 with $75 million. for J.K. Rowling’s hugely successful Potter franchise but still ranks as one of the year’s 10 best. Also: It got mostly positive reviews (76% of critics gave it a thumbsup on RottenTomatoes.com), and audiences graded it an A on CinemaScore.

It’s a great start for Beasts, Dergarabedian says. Its domestic numbers, plus an international haul of $143.3 million, “shows the tremendous goodwill built on the back of the Harry Potter brand.”

Beasts has a “perfect” pedigree, he says, with Rowling writing the screenplay and Potter director David Yates returning. “(That)

carries a lot of weight with the fans who are looking for that street cred,” Dergarabedian says.

The animated Trolls is hanging tough, scoring $17.5 million in its third weekend ($116.2 million total) — good for third place. While not wholly original — Troll dolls have been a thing since the 1960s — “to create a movie musical that’s trippy and fun, it’s pretty genius,” Dergarabedian says.

Amy Adams sci-fi film Arrival was fourth with $11.8 million ($43.4 million total), and holiday comedy Almost Christmas rounded out the top five with $7 million ($25.4 million total).

New teen comedy The Edge of Seventeen garnered strong critical acclaim (95% on Rotten Tomatoes) and audiences liked it (A-minus on CinemaScore), but the movie made a lackluster debut with $4.8 million. Same for the Miles Teller boxing film Bleed for This, which could muster only $2.4 million.

The Ang Lee drama Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk tanked in its national release, earning just $930,000 ($1.1 million total).

“We went from famine to feast, and now we almost have too many options,” Dergarabedian says. “How are you going to see all these movies? People have to parse out their time and money.”

The Tom Ford thriller Nocturnal Animals made $494,000 on 37 screens, and Kenneth Lonergan’s acclaimed Oscar contender Manchester By the Sea opened in four theaters with $241,000.

The $60,000 per-screen-average bodes well for Manchester going forward, Dergarabedian says. “In the indie world, directors are stars and reviews matter. Audiences are going to seek out those movies and fill those theaters.”

Final numbers are out Monday.

Dear Annie: For the past three years, we’ve been hosting Thanksgiving at our house. To make the holiday more manageable, our tradition is to do it potluckstyle. We take care of the turkey; the rest is left to everyone else.

It’s worked great for the most part, but the past two years, my uncle Brian offered to bring the pumpkin pie and then seemed to forget all about it, showing up at the house emptyhanded. My wife wants to just bake the pie herself this year, but Uncle Brian is again insisting we let him do it. In fact, he seemed pretty offended when we brought it up. He’s a bachelor, 75 and recently retired, so he has a lot of time on his hands.

Would it be rude of us to have a backup pie ready in case he forgets

again? I don’t want to insult him. — No Dessert Dear Dessert: I think it would be smart, not rude, for you to have a pie ready in case Uncle Brian drops the ball again. To spare his feelings, keep it out of sight until you’re sure you need it. If he ends up bringing one, you can give the spare pie to a shelter or family.

The bigger concern here, though, is your uncle’s forgetful-

Yet another millennial comedy What happens when a directionless drone finds a purpose in a world dominated by the self-absorbed? That, in a nutshell, is the point of ‘‘Search Party’’ (10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., TBS, TV-MA), a new cable comedy with a webisode feel.

Alia Shawkat stars as Dory, a woman who feels she’s too old to be the personal assistant to a narcissist. Her friends (John Early and Meredith Hagner) have the attention spans of brain-addled fruit flies.

F a t e arrives when an old friend goes missing and Dory dons a peculiar pantsuit-heavy wardrobe to sleuth out the mystery.

Shawkat, a veteran of shows dating back to ‘‘Arrested Development’’ and the cult 2001 Fox Family series ‘‘State of Grace,’’ seems like the old pro here. While Dory’s character has a purpose, the others are played pretty much for laughs. ‘‘Search Party’’ is the umpteenth ‘‘millennials in Brooklyn living throwaway lives’’ comedy to come down the pike. Slightly reminiscent of the smug HBO comedy ‘‘Bored to Death,’’ it adds little to this overworked mini-genre. ‘‘Search Party’’ will air two episodes a night over the next five days. The good news is, with shows like this and ‘‘People of Earth,’’ TBS is willing to throw a lot of comedy against the proverbial wall. We’ll just have to see what sticks.

ness. Please encourage him to talk to his doctor about his memory problems.

Dear Annie: This is in response to the letter from “Scared of My Friends,” who wrote in about people driving in their 70s when they shouldn’t. My son lives with me, and we share driving.

I think the problem comes in for some people my age when family members don’t live nearby or if public transportation is poor.

In addition, often no one wants to confront the elder about losing that independence. Often, when family members are near or visit, they do all the driving and never ride with the elder, so they have no idea how bad the situation is.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Nov. 21: This year you make waves wherever you go. If you are single, a friendship will play a key role in your love life. If you are attached, the two of you need to develop a mutually enjoyed hobby that you can get involved in.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ You might feel tense, no matter which way you turn.

Focus on clearing out some paperwork or emails. Tonight: Don’t play games in your head.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ One-on-one relating will provide more details than you have received up till now. Tonight: Dinner for two.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You seem to enter a period where others are challenging. Try to understand where they are coming from. Tonight: Don’t be fussy.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ Have an important conversation with someone who affects your day-to-day life. Hang out with this person in a neutral space. Tonight: Make plans.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Pay attention to a money matter that dominates part of your day. Someone around you finds you very appealing. Tonight: Be more open.

Because I am a registered nurse, I have given driving tests to my doctor to use during physical exams. They check cognitive ability and reaction time in addition to the usual eye exams, medication questions and flexibility tests. Although my state makes people older than 75 renew their licenses every year with an eye exam, that is the only requirement.

I have watched people who are stumbling renew their licenses without a question by the examiners.

Dr. Arnold died Thursday, November 17, following complications after surgery.

He was born May 4, 1933, in Salina, KS, the son of Clay and Ruby Arnold.

Graduating from Salina High School in 1951, he attended the University of Kansas on a Summerfield Scholarship, receiving his B.A. in Sociology in 1955.

A major highlight as an undergraduate was winning the National Debate Championship in 1954 as a member of the KU Debate squad.

Awarded a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship, he received his M.A. from the University of Illinois in Champaign­Urbana in 1956. Holding a Danforth Fellowship, he earned a Ph.D. in Sociology with a concentration in Crime and Delinquency in 1963.

He taught Sociology at Hanover College in Indiana from 1960­1963 and the University of Texas at Austin from 1963­ 68 before beginning his long career at the University of Kansas, which spanned the years from 1968­2004. His KU classes, apart from a large introductory course, emphasized crime and delinquency studies. In 1999 he received the Steeples Faculty Award for Outstanding Service to the People of Kansas. He was the author of four books and numerous articles in the field of Criminal Justice.

Outside the classroom he devoted many hours to social and religious

causes. A former Eagle Scout, he worked with young scouts at several levels. He also valued his participation in the First Baptist Church of Lawrence, especially the Missions Ministry.

In local and state communities he was active in causes advocating reform, especially in the area of criminal justice.

He lobbied for legislative action related to the justice system and authored studies on minority confinement and sentencing guidelines. He also chaired the Emergency Service Council, now administered by Ballard Center, and served on the board of the Lawrence League of Women Voters.

In 1955 he married Margaret Jean Smith, with whom he shared academic life and post­retirement travels. She survives him.

Other survivors include three children: Janice, Bruce, and Mark Arnold as well as eight grandchildren and five great­grandchildren.

By Michael Stavola Pittsburg Morning Sun

Pittsburg — P.E. Davis stills remembers the yellowish-brown “tweed” coat and suit he had just bought when a military truck came down the road blasting over a loudspeaker for all personnel to get back to base.

It was early in the morning on Dec. 7, 1941 and Pearl Harbor had just been bombed. Davis never got to wear the suit, according to The Pittsburg Morning Sun. “We were in uniform forever,” he said.

The Pittsburg native just celebrated his 97th birthday. He was in his 20s when he enlisted back in 1940.

“You could see it coming in the headlines each day,” he said.

At the time, Davis was cooking at a restaurant in Pittsburg and decided to enlist before being drafted. Davis felt American involvement was inevitable and wanted to avoid being drafted and placed in the infantry.

After Pearl Harbor, the radio operator/gunner trained at various places in the U.S. before being sent to New Guinea in 1943 and island hopping in the Pacific for the rest of the war.

Davis said his unit would relocate from

island to island as the U.S. Army made advances, but that didn’t mean he was out of harm’s way.

He couldn’t count how many times a Japanese plane would drop bombs during the middle of the night.

There was no sign it was coming, but he vividly remembers soldiers jumping out of their tents half-dressed, with a helmet and rifle, and jumping into a fox hole they had dug earlier in the day.

“That had to be some kind of sight,” he laughed.

Only once, he said, was his unit attacked by paratroopers. It happened while he was in the Philippines.

He lost men during different attacks and even lost his younger brother, Clarence, who was drafted in 1942 and died in a plane crash in India the next year. Davis said it’s unknown if mechanical problems led to the crash or if the plane was shot down.

War continued and Davis recalls “hours or days of boredom then 15 to 20 minutes of sheer terror.”

The 1937 Pittsburg High School graduate said he knew the war ended after the U.S. dropped atomic bombs in 1945 on Hiroshima and Nagasaki three days apart.

Soon after the bombings, Davis said surrendered

enemy soldiers began arriving at the island on which he was stationed near Okinawa.

He said the worst part of the war was the number of lives lost and best part was coming back and landing in San Pedro, California.

After being discharged in 1945, Davis got married

and had a daughter, whom he recently visited in Wichita.

In 1991, after his house in Andover was destroyed by a tornado, he moved back to Pittsburg.

He likes to stay busy by taking on various projects, including building a dollhouse for his great granddaughter.

QB Peyton Bender commits to Kansas

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

KANSAS GUARD LAGERALD VICK (2) pops a shot over Siena forward Javion Ogunyemi (0) during the second half Friday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Jayhawks continue frenzied stretch vs. UAB

This one won’t show up in the record book, but give the Kansas football program another victory for the weekend.

During an official visit to KU, former Washington State quarterback Peyton Bender watched the Jayhawks upset Texas in overtime at Memorial Stadium.

Now Bender hopes to be a part of such wins for Kansas in the future.

A 6-foot-1, third-year sophomore, who spent this past season at Itawamba Community College, Bender told Jon Kirby of Jayhawk Slant he verbally committed to KU. “I’m just really excited for

the opportunity and it is a good fit for me,” said Bender, who has two years of eligibility remaining. “I think I can go in and compete and hope for some playing time.

I think it is a good fit overall and I can go in there and hopefully have an impact.”

Rivals.com’s No. 25 QB in the nation coming out of Cardinal Gibbons High (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) in the Class of 2014, Bender started a game for Washington State as recently as a year ago. He spent two years — one as a redshirt — in Mike Leach’s version of the Air Raid offense.

Bender completed 36 of 58 passes for 288 yards and a touchdown, with two interceptions, in a loss at

Washington to close the 2015 regular season, while filling in as the Cougars’ starter.

After passing for 2,733 yards and 21 touchdowns, with four interceptions, in nine games for ICC, in Fulton, Miss., this season, Bender hopes his Air Raid knowledge will make it easy for him to pick things up in David Beaty’s system.

“I know a lot of the concepts. As far as the language and terminology, it is a little different,” Bender said. “But that is always going to be different from offense to offense. But there are similarities to what I ran at Washington State. I ran another form of Air Raid in junior college. I feel like I have a pretty good idea of it and

KANSAS ATHLETICS

A GOOD TIME TO WEAR 11

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Exhausted in some ways and eager for time to work with his team in practice now that he has seen a taste of what it can do in live games, Kansas basketball coach Bill Self has one eye on tonight’s CBE Classic clash with UAB and the other eye on the calendar.

“I’ll be glad when Wednesday gets here,” Self said. “Because I think we (could stand to) catch our breath a little bit.”

Since opening the season Nov. 11 in Honolulu, the Jayhawks have endured a wild stretch of intense games, even more intense travel and little rest or practice time.

Even after Friday’s 21-point win over Siena in KU’s home opener, the Jayhawks (2-1) took Saturday off and ran through a light practice Sunday in preparation for two games in two days in Kansas City.

A win tonight over UAB — 8:30 p.m., ESPN2 — would put the Jayhawks in the late game on Tuesday against the winner of George Washington vs.

Georgia. A loss would land Kansas in Tuesday’s 6 p.m. game against the loser of that other match-up.

Self, fully aware that he’s unable to do anything about it at this point, said he was less worried about KU’s game with UAB and more concerned about where his team’s gas gauge would be on Tuesday night.

Although this week’s fast start — along with another Friday home game against UNC-Asheville after the CBE — continues the crazy stretch, the players who have been waiting months for these games to get here insist they’re not anywhere near run down.

“I wouldn’t say we’re tired,” sophomore Lagerald Vick said, “but we’ve gotta get some rest in for the next couple games coming up.”

Regardless of how things play out, the next few games > JAYHAWKS, 4C

Jayhawks wearing jersey No. 11 shined over the weekend on the court and on the field

he 11th month on the calendar always packs powerful potential for sports entertainment on the University of Kansas campus because it’s when the fall and winter seasons overlap.

Even by November standards, a stretch of slightly less than 24 hours starting Friday night and ending Saturday featured KU athletes reaching amazing heights.

We don’t have enough space to mention all the athletes who generated thrills in a span of 23 hours and 17 minutes, starting with the basketball team’s tipoff against Siena, continuing with the volleyball players hoisting a Big 12 title trophy, and concluding with the Jayhawks defeating Texas on a football field for the first time since 1938, the year ballpoint pens and toothbrushes with Nylon bristles (replacing hair from a hog’s neck) hit the market.

So let’s just pick one jersey number out of the air Kyle Babson/Special to the Journal-World to show that even limiting it to the accomplishments of KANSAS JUNIOR SETTER athletes wearing an identical AINISE HAVILI celebrates number, it was an actiona point during packed weekend for local Saturday’s match sports fans. Since we’re in the against Iowa State at 11th month, we’ll pick No. 11.

Texas: Coach Strong’s job safe for now

By Jim Vertuno AP Sports Writer

Austin, Texas — Texas says nothing has been decided on football coach Charlie Strong.

Longhorns athletic director Mike Perrin, in the face of swirling reports that school officials had decided to fire Strong at the end of a third bad season, dismissed them as “rumors” and said the coach would be evaluated after playing TCU on Friday.

Perrin, who has been publicly supportive of Strong all season, didn’t say Strong would return.

“There are a number of rumors out there about the status of Coach Strong. I’ve said it all along, we will evaluate the

What a difference some takeaways make. Members of the Kansas football team know all too well the pitfalls associated with losing possession. The Jayhawks dropped nine consecutive games, in part because they ranked worst in the nation in surrendering turnovers — a dubious position they still maintain, with 33 on the season.

For at least one Saturday against Texas, though, the KU defense specialized in football abduction (three picks, three fumble recoveries), the offense didn’t self-destruct with interceptions and fumbles (only one apiece) and the Jayhawks won a Big 12 game for the first time in two years.

Wouldn’t you know it, second-year head coach David Beaty’s first conference victory — 24-21 in overtime — came with KU winning the turnover margin for the first time since the season opener against Rhode Island.

“It feels great,” Beaty said of watching the defense come up with six takeaways, leading to a plus-four turnover margin for his Jayhawks (2-9 overall, 1-7 Big 12). “It feels really good to cause ’em, because when that happens, typically it’s being caused. And our guys caused a bunch of ’em, because I thought they hit (UT QB Shane) Buechele a bunch (Saturday). That was the plan. If we could kind of stop the bleeding a little bit with (Longhorns running back D’Onta) Foreman, then we had to hit Buechele.

We had to hit him. He’s a young guy, so we had to get some pressure on him and get him uncomfortable early. And if we did, we felt like maybe we could get him to make a mistake or two. But he hasn’t done that really in previous games.”

Indeed, the KU defense sacked the true freshman QB four times and kept the pressure coming.

Buechele passed for just 165 yards on 26 attempts and threw three interceptions.

The Jayhawks certainly didn’t look like a team that ranks 124th in FBS in turnover margin (-12 on the season).

During one incredible second-quarter stretch against Texas (5-6, 3-5) the Kansas defense took the ball away on four straight Longhorns possessions.

Neither a Denzel Feaster fumble recovery off a Dorance Armstrong strip-sack nor a Fish Smithson interception of a Buechelle deep ball down the east sideline netted ensuing points from the Kansas offense. But the takeaways broke

up a punt-fest of a first half and gave the Jayhawks some momentum when neither team could manufacture any.

Finally, senior cornerback Brandon Stewart broke the stalemate and did what the offense hadn’t to that point — scored a touchdown — with a 55-yard interception return.

The ensuing UT series only lasted two plays, once Cameron Rosser stripped the Longhorns’ stud running back Foreman of the ball near midfield.

Though Foreman rushed for 252 yards and two touchdowns on 51 carries, the KU defense stole the ball from the big back again late in the fourth quarter, and Rosser recovered with KU trailing by three.

And, of course, no theft stood out more than freshman Mike Lee’s overtime interception.

Senior KU safety Smithson said he’d never felt more excited as a Jayhawk — even on his highlight plays — than when Lee made his clutch takeaway.

“He’s kind of like my little brother out there,” Smithson said, “and then you see him make a big-time play like that, I’m just proud of myself and proud of him for making that big-time play.”

The coaching staff challenged KU’s defensive line following a poor second-half showing in a winnable home loss to Iowa State a week earlier.

Sophomore defensive end Armstrong said the line responded and the defense played to its potential.

KU sophomore receiver Steven Sims Jr. said the defense has so many play-makers, the takeaway party didn’t surprise him. And now a new standard has been set.

“I expect that out of them every week now,” a smiling Sims said.

BOX SCORE

Memphis — Eight Kansas players were ejected in the second quarter, but the KU women’s basketball team earned its first win of the season on the road against Memphis, 68-58, at Elma Roane Fieldhouse.

With more than seven minutes remaining in the second quarter, seven KU players earned automatic ejections for leaving the team’s bench during the game, along with junior transfer Jessica Washington, who received a flagrant-2 technical foul for fighting. That left Kansas with only six players for more than half of the game.

Nonetheless, the Jayhawks (1-2) found a rhythm offensively, including 10of-21 shooting from behind the three-point arc (46.7 percent). Junior guard Chayla Cheadle and sophomore McKenzie Calvert both scored 21 points, a career-high for Cheadle.

Sophomore guard Kylee Kopatich added a careerhigh 16 points, draining four three-pointers.

KU pulled away from Memphis (2-2) with a fast start in the third quarter. Calvert and Cheadle combined on a 10-2 run for a 10-point lead that the Jayhawks would never relinquish.

Athletes CONTINUED FROM 1C

sampling of thrills supplied by Jayhawks wearing jersey No. 11: Josh Jackson, basketball: His quick jumping ability enhances his ability as a scorer, rebounder and shot-blocker, but it’s when Jackson is on his feet that he does his best work, specifically making passes and stealing them.

With terrific passers of the football in the crowd — Alex Smith of the Chiefs, human KU record book Todd Reesing and Sunday verbal commit Peyton Bender — Jackson showed extraordinary vision in setting up teammates for buckets early in Friday’s 86-65 victory against Siena in Allen Fieldhouse.

Foul trouble limited Jackson to 21 minutes, time enough for him to produce 11 points, five rebounds, three assists, two blocked shots and a steal punctuated by a dunk.

Neil Armstrong famously summed up the signature moment of the Apollo 11 mission with the words, “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”

Jackson’s blocked shot came on one giant leap for man.

took a one-game lead in the standings with two games remaining into its match against alwaystough Iowa State, its shot at its first Big 12 title still was very much in the air.

Here’s why: All-American Kelsie Payne did not play Saturday because of a sprained ankle, and the Jayhawks’ final match is this coming Saturday at third-place Baylor, which has an 11-2 home record.

With Payne unavailable, it was imperative that fellow AllAmerican setter Havili make all the right calls on where to steer the offense to compensate for the loss of one of the nation’s best attackers. Havili answered the call with an all-around performance that even by her lofty standards was exceptional. She led the team on both sides of the net with 50 assists and 20 digs, and in the process bringing out the best in freshman Jada Burse (16 kills) and junior classmate Madison Rigdon (15 kills).

Havili’s a volleyball genius.

Chiefs 19, Buccaneers 17 Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers took their celebration all the way to the showers Sunday after snapping the Kansas City Chiefs’ five-game winning streak, whooping it up louder than any fan in the building.

When some of them started to talk about how great it felt, though, Gerald McCoy set them straight.

“He was like, ‘That is expected,’” Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston said of their longtime defensive tackle, “and I thought, ‘You’re right.’”

Winston sliced up a Kansas City defense missing top cornerback Marcus Peters, then McCoy and the Buccaneers defense stood tall in a 19-17 victory Sunday that could prove pivotal to their season.

Tampa Bay (5-5) is suddenly right in the NFC South playoff hunt.

“We have a really close locker room. We pull together,” said Chris Conte, After Khalil Herbert ran it in from the 1 for a touchdown with 2:48 left in the fourth quarter, head coach David Beaty relied on his Texas high school football connections, dialing up a play he stole from a recruiting trip to land current TCU quarterback Kenny Hill for Texas A&M. Beaty saw Southlake (Texas) Carroll High run the play in overtime against Tulsa Union High.

“I was like, ‘Man, I’m stealing that,’” Beaty said.

The play had Sims, a wide receiver, running a reverse with the option of throwing or running.

“My mindset was to run the ball the whole time because I felt like I was going to make a bad throw and I didn’t want to make a bad throw,” a smiling Sims said afterward. “I trust my feet more than I do my arm, so I just ran.”

And scored two points.

Then on the final

Steven Sims, football: He made two of the biggest plays in the game, one of which pulled Kansas within a field goal, the other of which allowed the Jayhawks to maintain possession to make Matthew Wyman’s overtime-forcing field goal possible.

Pearson Collision Repair 749-4455

Mike Lee, football: The freshman safety known for putting his body in harm’s way to make punishing hits put himself in the way of a Texas QB Shane Buechele pass for an interception that led to Wyman’s game-winning field goal. Lee returned it 35 yards, looking for a second as if he was going to take it all the way to end the game.

The steadily improving Lee also made 11 solo tackles and broke up a pass during his huge day.

Jackson, Havili, Sims and Lee combined to make The 11 Experience an amazing one for fans of KU sports.

who made a crucial pick for Tampa Bay in the fourth quarter.

Winston threw for 331 yards to help set up four field goals by Roberto Aguayo, and hit tight end Robert Cross for a touchdown with just over 6 minutes left to give the Buccaneers a cushion.

The Chiefs (7-3) marched swiftly downfield, and Alex Smith hit Albert Wilson with a short TD pass with just over two minutes left.

But their defense couldn’t stop Mike Evans on thirdand-3 moments later, and the big wide receiver’s sixth reception gave the Buccaneers a first down.

By the time Kansas City finally forced a punt, there were 8 seconds left in the game.

“This is my responsibility that my team plays better than this,” said Chiefs coach Andy Reid, whose team had not lost at home since Oct. 11, 2015. “I didn’t have them ready when they needed to be.”

It was the Buccaneers’ fifth straight win over Kansas City dating to 1993.

BIG 12/TOP 25 COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP The Associated Press

KU women add three in early signing period Playing without a freshman this season, the Kansas women’s basketball team will add several first-year post players next year.

During the early signing period, which ended Wednesday, the Jayhawks picked up letters of intent from 6-foot-2 wing Micaela Wilson, 6-5 center Brittany Franklin and 6-5 center Bailey Helgren.

“Signing two post players early was really important to us and we feel like both have a lot of potential to come in and develop into the kind of players that will have a positive impact on our team,” second-year KU coach Brandon Schneider said in a press release.

“Micaela Wilson is a three, stretch four if you will, and fills a need for us as we move forward.”

The left-handed Wilson, of Rayville, La., averaged 25 points and 12 rebounds per game as a junior in high school. Both Wilson and Franklin, from Plymouth, N.C., led their teams to their respective state tournaments.

Helgren, an Edina, Minn. native, averaged 9.5 points per game last year, earning all-conference honors.

Jayhawks CONTINUED FROM 1C

begin a stretch of selfevaluation for the Jayhawks. High-profile, highpressure games against Indiana and Duke to open the season put the growth and development process on temporary hold. In games like that, survival — and, of course, victory — account for most of what matters.

Now that those games are in the past, the Jayhawks can get down to the regular business of letting the season play out naturally, complete with growing pains and valuable lessons along the way.

“I don’t know that we’ve learned a lot yet,” Self said after the Siena victory. “We’re certainly not a team yet. That probably won’t happen for a while. There’s a point in every season where teams become teams and we’re not close to that. I don’t think we have an identity yet. If you’re gonna say, ‘What do you hang your hat on, is it perimeter shooting, is it rebounding, is it extra possessions, being able to guard the ball, first-shot defense?’ I don’t know that I would hang my hat on any of that stuff just yet. I still think we’re trying to find ourselves.”

As for what the Jayhawks will find tonight, in an arena that could feature as many as eight or nine KU games by season’s end, the Blazers (2-1) enter the matchup with Kansas on the heels of a bounce-back victory over Troy following a home loss to Furman in the second game of the season.

UAB is led by first-year coach Robert Ehsan, who replaced former Kansas star Jerod Haase after he left for Stanford. The Blazers return four starters from a team that won the Conference USA regular season title with a 16-2 record last season. The 201516 season included school records for wins (26), conference wins (16), road victories (10) and consecutive wins (14).

Those facts, along with UAB’s opening-round win in the 2015 NCAA Tournament, have made Self and the Jayhawks fully aware that they will have to show up and play well to improve to 3-1.

“The field is good,” Self said of the CBE Classic.

“It’ll be a good test for us.

Hopefully fans will turn out and show up.”

1 23 THREE KEYS FOR KANSAS

Lucas must respond

Three-point shooting

Play fast

KU coach Bill Self all but called out senior big man Landen Lucas following the Jayhawks’ victory over Siena for focusing too much on the wrong things during his slow start to the 2016-17 season.

Included among the specifics that Self mentioned were Lucas’ ineffective offensive game and focus on the officiating instead of the game. Self called Lucas’ antics “ridiculous” but also added that the veteran forward was smart and would figure it out.

No time like the present for that to happen. Through three games, Lucas, who emerged as one of the key pieces to KU’s Elite Eight run a year ago, has recorded 19 points, 13 rebounds and 11 fouls in the team’s first three games this season. There have been good moments, but they’ve been inconsistent and overshadowed by Lucas sending his attention elsewhere. With Self watching closely, tonight’s game is a great opportunity for Lucas to prove he heard him and he gets it.

After opening the season with a respectable 7-of-23 showing from behind the three-point line against Indiana, the Jayhawks went just 5-of-29 from distance in their next two games, both victories. KU is shooting just .213 for the year from three-point while allowing its opponent to hit at a .437 clip.

While the Jayhawks’ struggle to find their shooting touch from long range has not hurt the team’s ability to put up big point totals on offense, it has kept the KU offense from running as smoothly and efficiently as it is capable of.

Like Kansas, UAB, which enters the game shooting 18-of-51 (35 percent) from downtown, has had difficulty guarding opponents’ three-point shots thus far this season, so the team that shoots it better in this one could have a real advantage.

The Jayhawks have been at their best so far this season when they’ve been in transition, getting easy buckets and putting the pressure on opponents.

Given KU’s depth and talent advantage at the guard position in this one, the Jayhawks should come out looking to run as much as possible against the Blazers.

In addition to pushing the ball whenever possible, the Jayhawks likely will look to take advantage of a UAB team that turned it over 18 times in its most recent game against Troy and has coughed it up 47 times in three games thus far.

The Jayhawks, meanwhile, have forced 45 turnovers in their first three games, setting the table for KU to use its defense to kickstart its transition offense in this one.

— Matt Tait

MEGA MATCHUP The Jayhawks vs. The Whistle Although Kansas improved its overall performance in the foul department during Friday’s home-opening win against Siena, a couple of KU players still are struggling with foul trouble and the Jayhawks continue to commit at least a few silly fouls per game. While cleaning up the contact is something

Kansas would need to work on against anybody, it is particularly important against UAB because of the Blazers’ ability to get to the free throw line.

UAB has shot 30 or more free throws in its last two games and enters tonight’s meeting with Kansas shooting 80 percent from the free throw line as a team, with six players shooting 80 percent or better individually.

— Matt Tait

JAYHAWK PULSE After back-to-back thrillers against Top-10 teams Indiana and Duke to open the season, the Jayhawks fell a little flat during their home opener against Siena.

Enough players made enough plays in that one to ensure victory, but Self said after that game that star guards Frank Mason III and Devonte’ Graham were just “average,” adding that he was not overly pleased with much his team did in the win.

That alone should be enough to

inspire the Jayhawks to get back on track against UAB, but they’ll be asked to do it in a building that historically has lacked energy.

Playing their first of what could be as many as eight games (nine if you want to entertain the unlikely scenario of Kansas playing on the opening day of the Big 12 tournament) at Sprint Center this season, expect the Jayhawks to come out with something to prove in this one.
