Tax-cut deficit pegged at $712M; governor disputes

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — The tax cut endorsed by Gov. Sam Brownback would drive the state into a $712 million deficit within six years, according to a new calculation released

Wednesday.

But the Brownback administration said the calculation put together by the Kansas Legislative Research Department was wrong.

Kansas Secretary of Revenue Nick Jordan and Brownback’s budget director, Steve

Anderson, said the tax cut would boost the economy and lead to a positive ending balance in state coffers.

“We are not playing games with these numbers,” Jordan said. “We are confident in our methodology.” He said the Revenue Department

would release its estimates today.

Legislators have depended on the nonpartisan, professional staff of the Kansas Legislative Research Department for decades.

On Monday, the Legislative Research Department re-

Agency taking action against sex offenders following report

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

A September JournalWorld investigation of Kansas sex offenders who fail to register when crossing state lines prompted a federal agency to take action and led to several arrests, said Tom Lanier, a chief inspector for the U.S. Marshals Service.

Last year, a Journal-World investigation found that more than 160 Kansas sex offenders who left Kansas were not registered in other states. Failing to register after moving to other states is potentially a federal and state crime.

Following the investigation, the Journal-World furnished the Marshals Service — tasked with enforcing sex offender laws across state lines — with a list of unregistered offenders.

“We went painstakingly through the list,” said Lanier, who is in charge of the Sex Offender Investigations branch, which includes Kansas.

They were quickly able to narrow the list down, Lanier said. Some of the offenders had died or moved to states with different registration laws that did not require them to register.

For the past several months, the Marshals Service has been investigating 22 of the cases identified by the Journal-World. Those investigations led to two arrests, while two additional sex offenders were arrested

Arrests since our investigation:

Samuel M. Gagnon: Convicted in Johnson County in 2002 of attempted aggravated indecent liberties with a child, Gagnon told Kansas authorities he was moving to Colorado, but failed to register in that state. Gagnon was arrested by the Marshals Service and the Denver Police Department in February and charged with failing to register Gagnon as a sex offender.

Thomas C. McCoumb: Convicted in Harper County in 2004 of indecent liberties with a child. McCoumb was released from a Kansas prison in 2009 and told authorities he was also moving to Colorado. McCoumb failed to register there and was arrested by the Marshals Service in January in Denver.

McCoumb

These sex offenders were arrested for other offenses during the investigation and could face additional charges of failing to register:

Thomas J. Miller: Convicted of sexually assaulting a minor in Nebraska in 2006. Miller moved to Kansas but failed to register with another state when he left Kansas.

Miller is currently in jail in Wyoming for drunken driving and is facing charges in Texas for failing to register as a sex offender.

Raymond C. Carrick: Convicted in Kansas in 2000 of sexual battery, moved to Georgia following his 2006 release, but failed to register as a sex offender. Carrick Carrick was arrested on burglary charges. for other offenses and could face additional failure-toregister charges.

The Marshals Service is actively searching for several other offenders who have failed to register, but the agency asked that those names not be released.

In addition, two of the of-

fenders, B.J. Lucas and Hayton P. Robinson, are currently serving in the U.S. Army.

Lanier said that the Marshals Service contacted the Army in both instances and that the Army is aware of both men’s sex-offender status. Calls to Please see OFFENDERS, page 2A

Lawrence city officials are seeking to revoke the liquor license of Taste Lounge, Bar and Grill based on public safety concerns.

A bouncer was shot outside the bar, 804 W. 24th St., on March 17, and there were two other incidents where shots were fired outside the business last October and December. Suspects have been arrested and charged in all three cases.

“These are things that draw our attention when you have these threats to the safety and well-being of the community,” said Chad Sublet, an assistant city attorney.

City commissioners at CITY their May 15 meeting are scheduled to conduct a hear- COMMISSION ing on whether Taste’s city liquor license should be revoked, and city staff members are also asking the commission to request a hearing before the state’s Alcoholic Beverage Control to determine whether Taste’s state license should be suspended or revoked, according to an April 27 letter City Attorney Toni Wheeler sent to Taste’s owner, Lee Riley of Topeka.

A bar that loses its city-issued liquor license could still serve alcohol under its state license, but the city would not be able to collect alcohol sales tax funds, Sublet said. The Please see CITY, page 2A

Underage drinking crackdown shifts from bars to parties

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Law enforcement agencies in Douglas County are shifting their efforts to crack down on underage drinking this spring from bars to neighborhoods and house parties.

A team of Lawrence police, Kansas University police and Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control officers last Friday night patrolled areas around the Oread neighborhood.

ABC officers did cite a caterer at an event at the Sigma Chi Fraternity, 1439 Tenn., alleging the catering company allowed minors to possess alcohol, failed to notify the ABC and police department of the event and allowed people to remove alcohol from the premises, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman.

ABC could also take notice of evidence presented at a city hearing, he said.

“We have a number of drinking establishments in the community. The vast majority of them are safe operations. The owners and the staff take their safety responsibilities seriously, and we occasionally have issues, and we want to work with the business owner,” City Manager David Corliss said. “When we find we’re not being successful, we want to present it to the City Commission and see if there is additional action we need to take.”

In the letter Wheeler said Riley met with Corliss, Police Chief Tarik Khatib and other city officials April 24 to discuss the city’s “public safety concerns with Taste.” The letter also mentions that Riley indicated he intended to cease operations at Taste before the May 15 hearing.

Sublet said Wednesday that for now the city planned to go forward with seeking the revocation until it received further notice, and Wheeler’s letter noted the city would likely defer or table the City Commission action if Taste surrenders its liquor license to the state before noon May 10.

Rich Blackmon, a Taste manager, who has defended the bar’s actions and said he thought it was being unfairly targeted, declined to confirm Wednesday that Riley intended to cease the bar’s operations.

The city also provided to the Journal-World on Wednesday the number of police and medical calls for service from Jan. 1, 2011, through April 1 to each establishment with an on-premise liquor license — mostly bars and restaurants.

Five establishments had a higher overall number of calls during that time than Taste, which has 75. They were:

Abe and Jake’s Landing, 8 E. Sixth St., 163.

The Oread, which includes The Cave nightclub and everything within the hotel and development, 1200 Oread Ave., 122.

Tonic, 728 Mass., 99.

The Hawk, 1340 Ohio, 93.

Cadillac Ranch, 2515 W. Sixth St., 91.

The calls include everything that originated from that address, including alarms, bar checks, alcohol violations and battery calls or more serious crimes. Sublet said the average number of calls among the more than 100 establishments was 19.8.

Blackmon questioned why city officials would seek to revoke Taste’s liquor license when five other bars had a higher number of calls.

Aside from the firearms-related calls, Taste had only two battery calls listed, while Abe and Jake’s had 26, The Oread had 18, 15 were listed at Cadillac Ranch,

the Army for comment were not immediately returned.

Kyle Smith, deputy director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, said the KBI, which is responsible for the Kansas Sex Offender Registry, sends letters to states notifying them that a registered sex offender is entering their state. But after that, it’s somebody else’s responsibility.

“It’s up to (the new state and the offender) to do,” said Smith when interviewed about the issue in September.

There could be cases where an offender moves to one state, then to another, but that information isn’t necessarily communicated among states, Smith said.

That’s exactly the problem, said Laura Ahearn, executive director of Parents for Megan’s Law and the Crime Victims Center, a nonprofit organization that advocates for more accountability in sex offender registries nationwide.

“We’ve established a law that requires society’s most cunning of criminals to register on an honor system,” Ahearn said.

Inconsistent laws

Kansas Sex Offender Registry facts and guidelines

Enacted in 1993 and applies to crimes committed only after April 14, 1994.

Requires sex offenders to register in person four times each year with their local sheriff’s office.

Adults are required to register for either 15 or 25 years, depending on the crime, for a first conviction, and life for a second conviction.

Some more serious offenses require lifetime registration on a first conviction.

People required to register for an offense in another state are also required to register if they move to Kansas.

Crimes requiring registration include

sodomy, rape, sexual battery, indecent liberties with a child, sexual exploitation of a child and incest.

Failing to register, or failing to notify the sheriff’s office within three days when there’s an address change, is a level 6 felony that could result in prison time.

The public can search the registry online at no charge: accesskansas.org/kbi/ ro.shtml.

The U.S. Department of Justice operates the National Sex Offender Public Website, which compiles registry information from all 50 states. That site can be accessed at nsopw.gov.

among states make keeping track of sex offenders a complicated endeavor, a situation Lanier and the Marshals Service is all too familiar with.

“There’s 50 ways of doing business out there,” Lanier said. “Nobody really has a clue how many (sex offenders) have to register.”

In some cases, an offender in one state may

not be required to register in another state. That means some clever offenders are engaged in “state shopping,” where offenders move to a state where registry laws may not be as strict.

“That’s not uncommon,” Lanier said.

leased, Jordan and Anderson had a quick briefing with reporters. They said the Revenue Department calculated the impact of the tax cuts on an incremental basis year by year, while the Legislative Research Department figured the cumulative effect of the tax cut. They said the Revenue Department also plugged in higher revenue growth projections in other tax collections.

Jordan and Anderson said their methodology was supported by an independent certified public accountant.

Earlier Wednesday, Kansas Democratic Party Chairwoman Joan Wagnon, who is also a former secretary of the Kansas Department of Revenue, said the tax cut would rob funds from schools and other services while delivering a windfall to wealthy businesses, including Kansas-based Koch Industries.

“Certainly the public would not believe this tax break should be targeted to one of the largest and wealthiest businesses in our state,” Wagnon said in a statement delivered to the House-Senate tax conference committee that is working on the bill.

Wagnon, who served as revenue secretary under former Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a Democrat, said 38,000 limited liability corporations would be af-

fected. She said she did a search of the Kansas secretary of state’s databases and found 24 business entities related to Koch Industries that are LLCs and would be affected by the proposal. All of the companies are based in Wichita.

“Of course, I have no way of knowing the tax impact of this change on their business. But, their filing status is public and definitely included in this bill as it stands now,” she said.

Jordan defended the business tax cut, saying it would help thousands of small businesses hire more people.

“Is that evil? The goal is to grow small businesses,” he said.

Wagnon also criticized other parts of the tax-cutting package that would eliminate tax credits for child day care and a provision that would require low-income families who now qualify for both the Earned Income Tax Credit and food sales tax rebate to pick one and not benefit from both.

“Again, limiting lower income earners to either the EITC or the food sales tax rebate seems to take from those less able to pay in order to fund a tax break for the LLC’s (Koch included!)” she said in a written statement.

“It has to be important to point out,” he said. “So why are they coming after us?”

Sublet said the city’s action at Taste was driven by the violent crime calls at Taste, including the March shooting and two other incidents when shots were fired outside in October.

Corliss and Sublet said city officials either had already met with or arranged to meet with owners of the five other establishments. The city is not currently seeking to revoke their liquor licenses, they said.

According to the ABC, Taste has no violations for serving alcohol to minors, but it had a citation issued in March for not timely filing its liquor drink tax in September to December of last year.

Lawrence police also said last month they intended to send a report to the ABC alleging that on April 15 Taste was open past 2 a.m. and had failed to properly display its liquor license. Blackmon has said the bar was open serving chicken wings and not alcohol, and he said Wednesday the business had not received notice of that incident from the state.

Capt. Bill Cory, a Lawrence police patrol supervisor, said officers had two discussions with Taste staff members in the parking lot after two recent incidents, including on April 15.

“When you have an establishment that has violent crime, the city has to explore all of its options dealing with those issues,” Cory said Wednesday of the city’s revocation request.

The city pursued similar avenues in recent years against establishments that had problems with violence. Owners of Last Call closed the nightclub in the 700 block of New Hampshire Street after a legal battle with the city. In 2009, owners of the former Club Axis, 821 Iowa, previously known as Moon Bar, also closed its doors and surrendered the club’s state liquor license.

six years. But on Wednesday, it issued a new calculation because the earlier one had an error.

Some legislators said the $712 million deficit under the new calculation would make it difficult to approve such a huge tax cut.

“We can’t do something that we can’t afford,” said Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton.

Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said, “We do not want to self-impose a budget crisis that will put us in the red year after year.”

The deficit could not be covered by budget cuts, Hensley said, because during the recession the state already cut $1 billion.

The proposed bill would decrease state income tax rates and exempt nonwage business income, which will affect nearly 200,000 businesses formed as limited liability corporations, Chapter S corporations and sole proprietorships.

It would also follow current law and allow the 6.3 percent state sales tax to decrease to 5.7 percent next year and provide $180 million over four years to local governments for property tax relief.

The enforcement was part of a local Fake ID 101 task force, and the officers on the patrol were given overtime through a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation.

Task force officers during the fall semester focused on underage drinking and fake IDs at Lawrence bars, but McKinley said that last Friday’s operation shifted the focus to house parties and violations away from the bar scene.

tion drives behavior,” she said.

McKinley said that officers, some of whom were in plain clothes and some in uniform, ticketed 11 people Friday as part of the patrol. Some received more than one charge on their ticket.

Eight citations were issued for a minor in possession of alcohol, and four were for possession or use of a fake ID or another’s driver’s license. Police also issued three citations for carrying an open container in public. Two people were arrested for driving under the influence, although McKinley said at least one of those arrests occurred in west Lawrence after officers were ending their patrol.

The caterer for the event at Sigma Chi, Bartenders on the Go of Topeka, received a hearing date for its administrative citation. McKinley said caterers are required to notify both the ABC and chief of police about events they are handling.

“It’s important for us to check compliance at those type of events,” he said.

Blaine Kaehr, the Sigma Chi chapter president, said Tuesday the fraternity was still investigating the incident. A woman who

TOPEKA — The Kansas redistricting wars continued Wednesday with no let-up in sight.

A day after a bipartisan plan to redraw Senate district boundaries was approved in the Senate, conservative Republicans killed it in the House.

State Rep. Lance Kinzer, R-Olathe, made a motion to concur with the Senate plan, knowing LEGISLATURE it would go down in defeat. It did as the motion failed, 43-72.

State Rep. Greg Smith, a conservative Republican from Overland Park who is in the middle of the battle between moderate and conservative members of the GOP, said the Senate plan should be rejected because it diluted Hispanic voting strength by collapsing a western Kansas senate district that is losing population.

“This bill needs to be done away with,” Smith said.

Retiree makes it her business to keep people from falling through the cracks

By Margie Carr Special to the Journal-World

What keeps Katie Studebaker up at night is not worries about Paul, her husband of 53 years; it is not her three daughters, or even her seven grandchildren.

What Studebaker thinks about at 3 in the morning is her work helping the less fortunate and how to maximize the limited resources she has at her disposal. It is a passion she has had for most of her adult life, but which began to occupy more and more of her time since she retired from

the Lawrence School District in 2000.

“I have to stay busy,” she says.

“I am not good playing cards.”

One way Studebaker stays busy is as president of the board of Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen. And while most folks would be satisfied presiding over the agency that serves hundreds of hot meals to the hungry four times a week, Studebaker knows there is more that could be done.

The Kansas Highway Patrol said the privately owned helicopter crashed about 9:45 a.m. Tuesday in Valley Falls, about 30 miles northeast of Topeka. The three people on board were taken to a Topeka hospital with minor injuries.

Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Herrig says the helicopter missed several trees before landing on its side on an old railroad bed that has been converted to a walking trail.

Nicholas Henriquez is one of three Kansas seniors who was named on Wednesday as a Presidential Scholar, an honor given to high school seniors who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement, artistic excellence, leadership, citizenship, service and contribution to school and community.

The scholars will be honored for their accomplishments in Washington, D.C., in June.

In April, Henriquez was one of 800 black American high school seniors to be recognized as an Achievement Scholar through the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.

Earlier this year, Lawrence High School senior Leah Towle and Free State High School senior Sisira Srisutiva were among the 45 Kansas seniors named as candidates in the U.S. Presidential Scholar Program.

Shawnee Mission West senior Megan Smith, of Lenexa, and Blue Valley North senior Jiemin Wei, of Overland Park, are the other two 2012 U.S. Presidential Scholars from Kansas.

SOUND OFF

Q:

Will the Kansas University campus be open to through traffic Friday, which is Stop Day?

A:

Jill Jess, a KU spokeswoman, said that campus will be closed to drive-through traffic during the usual hours on Friday.

“We keep campus closed for Stop Day because opening up for one day and then closing again for finals has proven to be confusing,” she said.

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT

• A 22-year-old Lawrence woman was arrested for DUI Tuesday night after she was accused of striking a parked vehicle in the 2000 block of Vermont Street.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said an officer at 11:45 p.m. stopped her 2003 Pontiac Vibe in the 1100 block of Massachusetts Street after he noticed damage to the vehicle. Police determined she was involved in the accident earlier on Vermont Street, and the woman, Fattin Jeffrey Lang, told the officer she had been texting when the collision occurred.

According to jail records, Fattin posted $800 bond and was given notice to appear in municipal court. McKinley said she was arrested for DUI, leaving the scene of an accident, no insurance, texting while driving and failing to report an accident. No injuries were reported.

• Several Lawrence police officers responded about 10:20 a.m. Wednesday to a medical emergency possibly related to a reported crime in the 3300 block of Yellowstone Drive, near Kasold Drive and Clinton Parkway. But Sgt. Trent McKinley, a police spokesman, said the report was unfounded, police did not find an injured person, and the address for the call did not exist. Medics were on standby on Kasold Drive, but they were later dismissed.

• Douglas County prosecutors Wednesday filed an aggravated battery charge against a 42-year-old rural Lecompton man accused of cutting a man Tuesday night in an apartment in the 1800 block of West 26th Street.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said police were called about 8:30 p.m. to a possible domestic disturbance and

maps for their own chambers. The Senate has accepted the House-drawn map for the House.

But House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, said the Senate map approved Tuesday in the Senate on a 21-19 vote wouldn’t get a majority of support in the House.

Moments before the House killed the Senate plan, a House committee introduced a Senate map similar to one that was drawn by state Sen. Steve Abrams, R-Arkansas City, which would have saved a district in western Kansas at the expense of adding a district in growing Johnson County. Abrams’ proposal had failed in the Senate on a 19-21 vote.

Kansas legislators are engaged in the once-a-decade process of redrawing political boundaries for congressional, legislative and State Board of Education districts to accommodate populations shifts.

Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, said House rejection of the Senate map was breaking with tradition. “I’ve always said it’s the House’s responsibility to do their maps, and it’s our responsibility to do our map,” he said.

House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence blamed Gov. Sam Brownback, a conservative Republican, with pressuring GOP legislators to adopt lines that will favor conservative candidates. “Gov. Brownback needs to drop his obsession with running Republicans who don’t agree with his right-wing agenda out of the Legislature,” Davis said.

The maneuvering around redistricting is also linked to standoffs on other unresolved issues, such as the budget and proposed tax cuts.

On the congressional front, the Senate Redistricting Committee on Wednesday recommended approval of a map that

discovered the suspect, Eric David Lipp, in possession of two knives. He was taken into custody without incident, and officers later determined Lipp had an argument with another Lawrence man in the apartment. The victim had minor injuries after he alleged Lipp cut him. Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said prosecutors alleged the victim was injured with a box-cutter knife.

INJURY ACCIDENT • Two people were treated and released from Lawrence Memorial Hospital after a Tuesday evening crash involving four vehicles on U.S. Highway 59 about 3 miles south of Lawrence.

Douglas County Undersheriff Steve Hornberger said at 6 p.m.

Laura Brown, 37, of Baldwin City, had stopped her northbound Ford vehicle and was waiting to turn left onto North 873 Road, when a 2001 Oldsmobile driven by Jedediah Peterson, 21, of Carbondale, rear-ended her.

Her vehicle was knocked into oncoming traffic, and two southbound vehicles struck it.

The drivers of the two southbound vehicles, Shelly Moore, 36, of Baldwin City, and Adam Larson, 19, of Leonardville, were both taken to LMH and later released.

Hornberger said Peterson was cited for following too closely and driving with an expired license.

puts all of Douglas County in the 2nd congressional district.

Currently, Douglas County is divided Davis between the 2nd and 3rd districts.

The proposal also keeps Manhattan in the 2nd District, which is represented

by U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Topeka.

An earlier version placed Manhattan in the vast 1st District, which includes all of western Kansas. Manhattan and Riley County officials had opposed that. Of the new proposal, state Sen. Roger Reitz, R-Manhattan, said, “I support this map. This is exactly what I wanted to see all along.”

Committee Chairman Tim Owens, R-Overland Park, said the measure resolves the Manhattan issue and several others.

“It’s not perfect,” Owens said. “No map is,” he said. The plan was approved by voice vote without dissent and now goes to the full Senate.

Both the House and Senate had earlier approved congressional redistricting plans and killed the other chamber’s proposal.

Earlier versions that gained traction in the House would have split Democratic strongholds, such as Kansas City, Kan., Topeka and Lawrence.

Each of those proposals would have placed a portion of those cities in the 1st.

Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said the new proposal “goes to show you don’t have to draw a map that splits Kansas City or Topeka or Lawrence and places them in the 1st as the House speaker insisted.”

Pantry CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

“We thought that would be a good time, closer to the end of the month,” she says. “People might be out of money, and the extra help might be really helpful then.”

Studebaker will not take sole credit for the food pantry, saying that it was, and continues to be, a group effort. “There are many others who work on these projects,” she says.

That help comes not only from others in her church, but also from the Lawrence community.

Last Christmas the pantry received $450 worth of grocery cards from Crown Toyota after it had conducted its annual food drive.

“We were able to buy butter and eggs and add them to the weekly grocery bags,” she says. “We figured it would be nice to have those things if the families wanted to do a little baking.”

Not long ago, Studebaker saw another need in the community. She heard about one of the LINK guests who had moved into his own apartment.

“He didn’t have anything to help set up his house — no toaster, no towels, nothing,” she says.

His predicament got her thinking about others who may be in the same position. “All those people who are in Family Promise or who are leaving the Shelter, what do they do?”

What they can do, thanks to Studebaker and others who donated items, is visit the Helping Hands Closet, also located at First Christian Church.

The donations rolled

in, and what was once a classroom at the church, is now teeming with items to help individuals and families just starting out.

While the Helping Hands Closet is going strong, Studebaker is struggling to keep up with the growing demands on the food pantry. “I feel like we are at a crossroads because we are running out of money,” she said.

“We are thinking about ways for people to ‘adopt our food pantry,’” she says. “Maybe different levels of membership: One level would be for those who want to come to work. Another level would be for those who want to donate food, and a level for those who want to donate money.”

Whatever happens, Studebaker is optimistic.

“Lawrence is a very generous community. If there is a need, people will respond,” she says.

And it appears that as long as there are those who need her help, Studebaker will respond and continue to serve.

“It is a privilege to serve people and to feel God’s love because that is what it is.”

Knology explains service disruptions A Knology upgrade to internal systems this week disrupted some @sunflower.com email accounts, said Rod Kutemeier, Knology general manager.

The Monday morning maintenance to the system affected an estimated “5 to 10 percent” of email users with accounts @sunflower. com, Kutemeier said. However, no emails were lost during the disruption, and all accounts should be back to normal now, Kutemeier said Wednesday morning.

In addition, other internal router maintenance affected Knology Internet connectivity over the weekend.

Kutemeier said most of the Internet connection issues could be solved by customers resetting their routers by unplugging and replugging connection cords.

Customers still experiencing problems should call 841-2100 for technical support.

Officials wait on Legislature before making teacher salary proposal

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Before making a proposal on teachers’ salaries, the Lawrence school district wants to see how much money it will receive from the state.

The Lawrence Education Association and school district continued negotiating teachers’ pay and benefits Wednesday.

At the previous meeting, the teachSCHOOLS ers’ union asked that the school district keep in place the one-time, $1,000 payment given to teachers last year and add another $2,250 to that amount.

But Kyle Hayden, the district’s chief operations officer, said he wasn’t comfortable talking about big money items until the state legislative session wraps up this month.

“We’d be really wasting our time if we didn’t have a clear picture of what next year is going to look like,” Hayden said.

This spring, state legislators have discussed raising the cap on the percentage of the budget that school districts could raise locally.

And there has been a proposal to boost the amount of money the state gives schools for each student by almost $75. While the boost could mean more than $800,000 in the district’s coffers, it wouldn’t come close to covering the salary increase requested by staff.

The $2,250 pay increase is about $3 million above what was paid to teachers last year.

“With our current financial situation, that isn’t going to happen,” Hayden said about what would be about a 10 percent increase in compensation.

David Reber, a biology teacher at Free State High School and lead negotiator for the Lawrence Education Association, believes the district has money to spare, pointing to the nearly $2 million the board spent on new programs a week ago.

“We still think they have the money to do it if they choose to make teacher compensation a priority,” Reber said.

“They think it is a matter of resources, and we think it is a matter of priorities.”

As the negotiating teams wait for a decision from the Legislature, there is still plenty more to discuss. At their next meeting May 9, they plan to tackle payroll deductions, duty days and planning time for teachers.

WICHITA — Prosecutors on Wednesday urged a judge to reject a request by a former consultant for Kansas University to have his sentence shortened in a ticket scalping conspiracy that he helped conceal.

Thomas Blubaugh pleaded guilty last year to a single count of conspiracy to defraud the United States through wire fraud, tax obstruction and interstate transportation of stolen property.

He has asked a judge to reduce his 46-month prison sentence to 33 months, arguing the court improperly considered the value of socalled deadwood tickets that he had hidden in a private storage facility.

Blubaugh also claims he had ineffective counsel and was promised probation in return for helping the government.

In a court filing Wednesday, prosecutors urged U.S. District Judge Monti Belot to deny the request and urged Belot to enforce the plea agreement that prohibits Blubaugh from appealing his conviction and sentence.

Blubaugh and his wife, Charlette, the university’s former ticket director, were among seven people convicted in a scheme in-

Thomas and Charlette Blubaugh

volving tickets to football and basketball games that cost the university athletic department $2 million.

Blubaugh challenged his sentence in a pleading from prison in which he claims the court erred in allowing the government to use information he provided to adjust the amount of loss attributed to him. He argued his plea agreement prohibited the government from using the previously concealed deadwood tickets he turned over in determining his guideline sentence.

He also contended the court relied heavily “on hearsay, assumptions and inferences” about the deadwood tickets.

In his response, Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Hathaway said authorities already knew about the deadwood tickets.

Hathaway cited a May 2010 investigative report by the university, which recounted that Charlette Blubaugh told other defendants that basketball ticket sales could not be reconciled and that those re-

cords should be moved to the football stadium. The records would then be destroyed and conspirators would blame their loss on construction at the stadium, the university found.

Charlette Blubaugh then told investigators in December 2010 that the missing deadwood tickets were destroyed by water damage due to the construction, Hathaway said.

“The only revelation provided by defendant Thomas Blubaugh was the fact that instead of destroying the tickets they had been stored in private storage facility for which the Blubaughs had been paying the monthly fees,” Hathaway wrote.

Prosecutors also took issue with Thomas Blubaugh’s complaint that he got a longer sentence than most other defendants, calling him the “right hand helper to his wife who is arguably the most culpable and placed the ball in play that started this criminal enterprise.”

Prosecutors argued against the ineffective counsel claim by noting that his defense attorney had vigorously pressed those issues in two sentencing memorandums and at the sentencing hearing. They said an attorney is not ineffective simply for failing to win an argument.

Kansas Senate approves $14.4 billion budget plan

By John Milburn Associated Press

TOPEKA — The Kansas Senate on Wednesday approved a $14.4 billion state budget for the next fiscal year after adding money for public schools and property tax relief.

The 34-5 vote sends the bill to the House, where a separate spending plan for the fiscal year that starts in July is awaiting debate.

Senators added $45 million a year for four budget years for cities and counties to reduce property taxes. The money restores a revenue-sharing program that began in 1938 but was suspended in 2002 when the state faced financial difficulties.

Senators also amended the budget to add $50 million to increase base state aid for schools, plus $27 million to equalize school

aid payments among poorer districts. Language authorizing the increases is in another bill already approved by the Senate but pending in the House.

The chairman of the Senate Assessment and Taxation Committee objected to the tax-relief money, saying it interfered with work by other legislators to reach a compromise on a sweeping tax bill that includes changes in income tax rates for individuals and businesses.

Sen. Les Donovan said the amendment would complicate the process as legislators try to reduce taxes without wrecking future state budgets. The Wichita Republican suggested other motives were at play to derail the tax discussions because the property tax provision was already part of the mix.

“I find this not only of-

fensive, I find it a very dangerous policy change,” Donovan said. “It’s too bad we’re doing this in this manner. It shouldn’t happen this way.

“We’re bound and determined we don’t want certain people to get credit for good tax policy.”

Sen. Vicki Schmidt, a Topeka Republican who carried the amendment, said her goal was to respond to constituent concerns about property taxes.

The effort would ensure that if the tax negotiators are unable to agree on a bill that cities and counties would still receive funding, said Sen. Laura Kelly.

“We always do this. It is an appropriations bill. It’s just a matter of whether we fund it,” said Kelly, a Topeka Democrat. “We’re not setting tax policy. We’re starting to restore funding.

That’s all we’re doing.”

One proposed component of the school-funding plan that was not added to the budget bill would allow school districts to increase the percentage of local property taxes that could be raised to augment state spending. The rate could increase from the present 31 percent to 32 percent in 2012-13 school year and up to 33 percent in the 2013-14 year if approved by school district voters.

The budget also increases funding for residents with physical and developmental disabilities, adding $5 million to reduce waiting lists for services.

The Department of Justice has been investigating complaints that the state hasn’t done enough in recent years to reduce waiting lists for services as state revenues have shrunk and budgets reduced.

Abortion bill OK’d, sent to governor TOPEKA (AP) — A bill giving more legal protection to Kansas health care providers who refuse to participate in abortions was on its way Wednesday to Gov. Sam Brownback, despite concerns it would limit access to birth control and allow some professionals to block life-saving care.

The Senate approved the “conscience” measure, 23-16. The House passed the bill last month, and Brownback, a Republican who strongly opposes abortion, is expected to sign it. The new law would take effect July 1.

Abortion opponents argued that the legislation merely updates decades-old state laws preventing doctors and hospitals from being

forced to participate in abortions or sterilizations. They said changes are needed because women seeking abortions can now use drugs to induce them, and health care professionals who oppose abortion shouldn’t face the threat of losing their jobs or being sued if they follow their consciences.

The measure extends “conscience” protections to clinics, doctor’s offices and other facilities other than hospitals. People are protected not only from being forced to participate in abortions but from referring patients for abortion services or participating in the prescription or administration of any drug that terminates a pregnancy.

BEIJING — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told China today that it must protect human rights, in remarks that rejected Beijing’s criticism of the U.S. for getting involved in the case of a blind dissident whose fate overshadowed the opening of annual talks between the powerful countries.

Clinton said at the opening of the talks on foreign policy and economic issues that the U.S. believes “all governments have to answer our citizens’ aspirations for dignity and the rule of law and that no nation can or should deny those rights.”

Her comments came as the dissident, Chen Guangcheng, pleaded for more help from Washington.

The blind, self-taught lawyer took refuge in the U.S. Embassy after escaping house arrest, but left Wednesday to get treatment for a leg injury at a Beijing hospital. He

initially said he had been assured that he would be safe in China, but hours later he said he fears for his family’s safety unless they are all spirited abroad.

China already demanded an apology from the U.S. even before Chen balked at a deal in which he would remain in his homeland. Now that he wants to leave, the case is looming over talks in which Clinton and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner are to discuss foreign policy and economic issues with their Chinese counterparts.

China’s President Hu Jintao said at the opening of the talks that China and the United States “must know

how to respect each other” even if they disagree.

“Given our different national conditions, it is impossible for both China and the United States to see eye to eye on every issue,” he said in the only part of the opening ceremony that was broadcast on state television. “We should properly manage the differences by improving mutual understanding so these differences will not undermine the larger interests of ChinaU.S. relations.”

Neither Hu nor Clinton specifically mentioned Chen, who had spent six days holed up in the U.S. Embassy as senior officials in Beijing and Washington tussled over his fate.

Eurozone unemployment hits record high LONDON — The 17 countries that use the euro are facing the highest unemployment rates in the history of the currency as recession once again spreads across Europe, pressuring leaders to focus less on austerity and more on stimulating growth.

Unemployment in the eurozone rose by 169,000 in March, official figures showed Wednesday, taking the rate up to 10.9 percent — its highest level since the euro was launched in 1999.

The seasonally adjusted rate was up from 10.8 percent in February and 9.9 percent a year ago and contrasts sharply with the picture in the U.S., where unemployment has fallen from 9.1 percent in August to 8.2 percent in March. Spain had the highest rate in the eurozone, 24.1 percent — and an alarming 51.1 percent for people under 25.

Austerity has been the main prescription across Europe for dealing with a debt crisis that’s afflicted the continent for nearly three years and has raised the specter of the breakup of the single currency. Three countries — Greece, Ireland and Portugal — have already required bailouts because of unsustainable levels of debt.

Eight eurozone countries, including Greece, Spain and the Netherlands, have seen their economies shrink for two straight quarters or more, the common definition of a recession.

Economies are contracting across the eurozone as governments cut spending and raise taxes to reduce deficits. That has prompted economists to urge European Union policymakers to dial back on short-term budgetcutting and focus on stimulating long-term growth.

Down syndrome son has own gifts

EDITORIALS

Energetic advocate On the occasion of her retirement, Lawrence owes a debt of thanks to one of its most enthusiastic boosters.

O

ver the last 30 years, Lawrence has had no more loyal and enthusiastic ambassador than Judy Billings.

First, as director of the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau and, more recently, as the president and CEO of Destination Management Inc., Billings has been an effective and determined advocate for just about any project or activity that would make Lawrence a more attractive visitor destination. Her retirement will mark a significant passing of the torch for Lawrence and a number of efforts that focus on the community’s tourism and history.

Throughout her career, Billings had a special talent for recognizing opportunities and turning them into reality. Attracting the filming of “The Day After” to Lawrence was one of her first successes. The made-for-TV movie had a huge economic impact for Lawrence as well as drawing nationwide attention to the community. Under her leadership, Lawrence established the Lawrence Visitors Center in the former Union Pacific Depot and took giant strides toward becoming a leading venue for a variety of sporting events that draw thousands of visitors to Lawrence each year.

The most recent project that benefited from Billings’ leadership was the formation of the Freedom’s Frontier National Heritage Area, which now has its headquarters in the former Carnegie Library building at Ninth and Vermont. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the designation of the heritage area, which encompasses 41 counties in eastern Kansas and western Missouri, simply wouldn’t have happened without more than a decade of strategic and determined leadership from Billings.

Of all the benefits Billings brought to Lawrence, Freedom’s Frontier has the potential to be her most lasting legacy.

The goal of the heritage area is to tell many stories about the ongoing struggles for freedom in the 41 counties, including what many Lawrence people think is one of the central stories: the pre-Civil War border wars. Lawrence played a pivotal role in that story, and Billings has put the city and Douglas County in a position to continue to serve a major role in historical tourism based on those events.

Billings would be quick to point to the many other people involved in the Freedom’s Frontier effort and about every other accomplishment of her tenure at the Convention and Visitors Bureau and Destination Management, which now serves as an administrative umbrella for the CVB, Freedom’s Frontier and the county’s historical societies. Building coalitions and community support for various local projects has been a hallmark of Billings’ career, but her leadership has been an essential element to the success of those projects.

Billings’ role as a community advocate won’t end with her retirement, but this is a good time for local residents to thank her for her 30-year commitment to Lawrence residents and visitors.

WASHINGTON — When Jonathan Frederick Will was born 40 years ago — on May 4, 1972, his father’s 31st birthday — the life expectancy for people with Down syndrome was about 20 years. That is understandable.

The day after Jon was born, a doctor told Jon’s parents that the first question for them was whether they intended to take Jon home from the hospital.

Nonplussed, they said they thought that is what parents

George Will

“

Judging by Jon, the world would be improved by more people with Down syndrome, who are quite nice, as humans go.” do with newborns. Not doing so was, however, still considered an acceptable choice for parents who might prefer to institutionalize or put up for adoption children thought to have necessarily bleak futures. Whether warehoused or just allowed to languish from lack of stimulation and attention, people with Down syndrome, not given early and continuing interventions, were generally thought

to be incapable of living well, and hence usually did not live as long as they could have.

Down syndrome is a congenital condition resulting from a chromosomal defect — an extra 21st chromosome. It causes varying degrees of mental retardation and some physical abnormalities, including small stature, a single crease across the center of the palms, flatness of the back of the head, a configuration of the tongue that impedes articulation, and a slight upward slant of the eyes.

In 1972, people with Down syndrome were still commonly called Mongoloids.

Now they are called American citizens, about 400,000 of them, and their life expectancy is now 60. Much has improved. There has, however, been moral regression as well.

Jon was born just 19 years after James Watson and Francis Crick published their discoveries concerning the structure of DNA, discoveries that would enhance understanding of the structure of Jon, whose every cell is imprinted with Down syndrome. Jon was born just as prenatal genetic testing, which can detect Down syndrome, was becoming common. And Jon was born eight months before Roe v. Wade inaugurated this era of the casual destruction of pre-born babies.

This era has coincided, not just coincidentally, with the full garish flowering of the baby boomers’ vast sense of entitlement, which encompasses an entitlement to exemption from nature’s mishaps, and to a perfect baby. So today science enables what the ethos ratifies, the choice of killing children with Down syndrome before

Jon Will birth. That is what happens to 90 percent of those whose parents have prenatal testing.

Which is unfortunate, and not just for them. Judging

by Jon, the world would be improved by more people with Down syndrome, who are quite nice, as humans go. It is said we are all born brave, trusting and greedy, and remain greedy. People with Down syndrome must remain brave in order to navigate society’s complexities. They have no choice but to be trusting because, with limited understanding, and limited abilities to communicate misunderstanding, they, like Blanche DuBois in “A Streetcar Named Desire,” always depend on the kindness of strangers. Judging by Jon’s experience, they almost always receive it.

Two things that have enhanced Jon’s life are the Washington subway system, which opened in 1976, and the Washington Nationals

baseball team, which arrived in 2005. He navigates the subway expertly, riding it to the Nationals ballpark, where he enters the clubhouse a few hours before game time and does a chore or two. The players, who have climbed to the pinnacle of a steep athletic pyramid, know that although hard work got them there, they have extraordinary aptitudes because they are winners of life’s lottery.

Major leaguers, all of whom understand what it is to be gifted, have been uniformly and extraordinarily welcoming to Jon, who is not.

Except he is, in a way. He has the gift of serenity, in this sense: The oldest of four siblings, he has seen two brothers and a sister surpass him in size, and acquire cars and college educations. He, however, with an underdeveloped entitlement mentality, has been equable about life’s sometimes careless allocation of equity. Perhaps this is partly because, given the nature of Down syndrome, neither he nor his parents have any tormenting sense of what might have been. Down syndrome did not alter the trajectory of his life; Jon was Jon from conception on.

This year, Jon will spend his birthday where every year he spends 81 spring, summer and autumn days and evenings, at Nationals Park, in his seat behind the home team’s dugout. The Phillies will be in town, and Jon will be wishing them ruination, just another man, beer in hand, among equals in the republic of baseball.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 3, 1912: YEARS “N. H. Gibbons, AGO proprietor of the IN 1912 Aurora and Grand moving picture theaters in Lawrence, has offered the use of one of these places to the churches of Lawrence, for every Sunday afternoon for the rest of the year. …

The feature of the meetings will be moving pictures, the films to be either religious or educational, the subjects to be those that will be of material benefit to those who see them.

Gay man’s Wichita speech is eye-opener Sometimes, people hide inside the Bible.

That is, they use the Christian holy book as authority and excuse for biases that have nothing to do with God. They did this when women sought to vote and when AfricanAmericans sought freedom.

They are doing it now, as gay men and lesbians seek the right to be married.

The latest battleground in that fight is North Carolina, where voters go to the polls Tuesday to render a verdict on Amendment One, which would add to the state constitution the following stipulation: “Marriage between one man and one woman is the only domestic legal union that shall be valid or recognized in this state.”

Mind you, the Tarheel State already has a law on the books banning same-sex marriage.

The would-be constitutional amendment is meant to double down on exclusion. And if you read the language carefully, you saw what many observers have seen — that it can also be interpreted as denying legal recognition to unmarried heterosexuals.

Not that this holds any sway with those who hide inside the Bible. “God has defined marriage,” said Family Research Council President Tony Perkins in a Sunday sermon quoted in the Charlotte Observer.

Leonard Pitts Jr.

“

lpitts@miamiherald.com

Vines’ speech is a masterwork of scriptural exegesis and a marvel of patient logic, slicing and dicing with surgical precision the claim that homophobia is God-ordained.”

“It is not up to us to redefine it.” In a letter to the editor, an Observer reader put it thusly: “You either believe (the Bible) or not.”

One wishes those people could spend a little quality time with Matthew Vines.

Vines is a Christian, a 22-year-old Harvard undergrad raised in a conservative evangelical church in Kansas. He is also gay and says he grew up being taught that the Bible condemns his sexual orientation. He took two years off from school to research and study whether or not that assertion is true.

The result is “The Gay Debate: The Bible and Homosexuality.” It’s a video — you can find it online with a simple Google search — of a speech he gave in March at a church in Wichita that has become a minor sensation. Small wonder. Vines’ speech is a masterwork of scriptural exegesis and a marvel of patient logic, slicing and dicing with surgical precision the claim that homophobia is God-ordained. So effective is the video that after viewing it, Sandra Delemares, a Christian blogger from the United Kingdom who had, for years, spoken in staunch opposition to same-sex marriage, wrote that it “revolutionized” her thinking.

Vines points out, for instance, that the frequently quoted condemnation (homosexuality is an “abomination”) from the lawbook of Leviticus has no application to Christians, who are bound by the teachings of the New Testament. He explains that St. Paul’s admonitions about the “effeminate” and “abusers of themselves with mankind” stem from modern mistranslations of ancient Greek terminology.

It is fascinating stuff, and there is not nearly enough space here to do it justice, but the salient point is this: Matthew Vines is not some godless heathen lobbing

bombs at Christianity from outside its walls. No, he lives inside Christianity’s walls, still holds the faith in which he was raised. So this is not an outsider’s attack. It is an insider’s plea.

One hopes that plea is heeded. Vines’ speech is long — a little over an hour — but well worth the time, particularly for those seeking to reconcile first-century faith with 21st-century social concerns.

Many in North Carolina — many around the country — are swimming against the tide of human freedom and blaming God for it. Again, this is not a new thing. We saw it back when God was for segregation and against women’s suffrage.

How convenient it must be to lay your own narrowness and smallness off on God, to accept no responsibility for the niggardly nature of your own soul. Vines’ video is a welcome, overdue and eloquent rebuke of the moral and intellectual laziness of throwing rocks, then hiding inside Scripture. It is a reminder, too.

You don’t go to the Bible to hide. You go there to seek.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Prep golfers share advice Several members of the Free State and Lawrence High golf teams took turns dunking on the adjustable hoop beside Kyle and Renee Green’s driveway. The last thing they needed was for some hack from an older generation pulling them into the backyard, one by one, to dispense golf tips that will divulge the secret to consistent ball-striking.

Raised to respect their elders, they obliged, talking golf near a fire pit that produced the cracking and snapping sounds that called to mind the backdrop on Neil Young’s recording of the song “Soldier.”

“Keep playing,” said Alex Green, Free State’s No. 1 player. “Don’t let one bad shot affect the rest of your round.”

His swing thought is simple: “Keep your head down. Don’t look up. Make sure you swing through the ball.”

Logan Henrichs, Lawrence High’s No. 1 player, expressed a similar sentiment about burying a bad shot in the past and offered a putting tip.

“Always keep your head down,” he said. “Keep your head as still as possible.”

LHS junior Brett Van Blaricum stressed, “Keep a steady tempo. Slow yourself down. Don’t get into a hurry.

Take your time on each shot. Think about each shot.

Don’t just go up and hit it.”

His LHS classmate Cole Cummins shared the most helpful tip he received: “Standing over my putts more, instead of standing way back, helped me putt a lot better.”

Firebirds junior Wilson Hack said, “When I start swinging bad, I resort back to my tempo, and that kind of fixes everything for me.

I just try not to swing too hard. I don’t try to slow the clubhead down because then I’ll probably lose distance, but just mentally trying to slow everything down and trying not to swing too quick, too hard at it. Just let it flow.”

Free State freshman Matt Siler on putting: “Follow through. Keep a good, solid stroke.”

Firebirds sophomore Hunter Dedloff, coming off playing nine holes with friends from both schools, said: “Swing slower, keep my head down. I swung pretty hard today. You feel like you need to crush it, especially on the tee. And I topped like four drives today. I didn’t follow this tip today. That’s why I’m saying it now, trying to get it in my head.”

Firebirds frosh Austin Kastl doesn’t believe in cluttering his head with too many thoughts: “Whatever you think you can do to hit it well, just do that. Everyone’s swing is different.”

His chipping pointer: “People who don’t follow through have problems chipping. As soon as they hit the ball, they stop.”

On the green, Kastl said, pick your line first and then think about nothing but speed.

LHS sophomores Taylor Grob and Narito Mendez weighed in.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SOPHOMORE RECEIVER JUSTIN MCCAY (19) STANDS on the sidelines during a morning practice on April 19 at Memorial Stadium. McCay, a transfer from Oklahoma University, was denied a hardship waiver by the NCAA and must sit out the 2012 season.

NCAA denies McCay’s appeal; transfer to sit out 2012

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Not yet.

So says the NCAA, which on Wednesday, after an appeal heard by the Subcommittee for Legislative Relief, denied the hardship waiver requested by Kansas University wide receiver Justin McCay, making the sophomore ineligible to play during the upcoming season.

“Today we received notice from the subcommittee that they rejected Justin McCay’s appeal to be able to play immediately,” KU coach Charlie Weis said. “They informed our compliance officer that there wasn’t that one catastrophic event evident to rule in his favor. I’m extremely disappointed that common sense

“

I’m extremely disappointed that common sense did not prevail. I have read all of the information on this case, and it is a shame that this case resulted in a rejection.”

— Kansas football coach Charlie Weis did not prevail. I have read all of the information on this case, and it is a shame that this case resulted in a rejection. I cannot release all of the details of Justin’s case as it would be an invasion of his privacy. I can only say that the University of Kansas felt the evidence was overwhelmingly in his favor.

I also do not understand why the NCAA had us appeal this

case to the subcommittee only to have received the same answer with the same rationale.”

The news came after a highly publicized couple of weeks of waiting. On April 20, the NCAA informed KU officials and Weis that it would not give McCay the waiver, but, in the same breath, recommended that KU appeal the ruling.

After jumping through more hoops and filling out more paperwork, McCay filed his appeal on April 24. At that point, the subcommittee had a week to review the case, and, on Wednesday, the request was denied for a second time.

“This is a very disappointing day for me and my family,” McCay said. “I was very hopeful throughout the process that I would receive a more favorable result, but unfortu-

HIGH SCHOOL TENNIS

nately that is not how things turned out. I am so grateful to all of the people who worked so hard on my behalf throughout this process.”

McCay, a former five-star prospect from Roeland Park’s Bishop Miege High who participated in the U.S. Army AllAmerican game as a senior, signed with Oklahoma out of high school and red-shirted during the 2010 season. He played only sparingly last season and chose to transfer to KU at the start of the spring semester because of a desire to be closer to his family and his hometown.

Despite the ruling going against him, McCay said he would not change his path.

“I have no regrets,” he said.

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR PACE LEGGINS WAITS on a backhand return during a match against Mill Valley sophomore Paul Dresvyannikov on Wednesday at LHS.

Lawrence High boys tune up before regionals

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Lawrence High boys tennis coach Chris Marshall has never been one to get overly concerned with dual results, what with all the postseason events — league, regionals, state — being played in a tournament format.

So when the Lions lost a home dual, 5-3, to Mill Valley on Wednesday, Marshall didn’t mind too much.

Besides, the only Lions in action who will be playing Please see KEEGAN, page 3B Friday at a Class 6A region-

al at Leavenworth — No. 1 doubles team Pace Leggins and Matt Grom, and No. 2 doubles team Randy Walter and Matthew Mikel — both won their matches against the Jaguars.

A victory for Leggins and Grom was in doubt early on as they faced Mill Valley’s Joe Vincent and Daniel Fleming. The LHS duo trailed 3-0 before winning a game. The Jags led, 5-2, when Marshall decided to get video of his No. 1 doubles team with his Please see TENNIS, page 3B

It would be difficult to find two rivals headed in more opposite directions.

Free State High’s girls soccer team has lost just two times this season and is ranked No. 10 in the Kansas Soccer Coaches Association’s All-Class rankings.

A few miles southeast, Lawrence High (2-11) just picked up its second victory of the season Tuesday, snapping an 11-game losing skid.

The Firebirds (9-2-2) have outscored their opponents 57-13 this season. The Lions have given up 69 goals and netted just 11.

No doubt, Free State is the clear favorite in the city showdown — set to begin at 6:30 tonight at FSHS — but Firebirds coach Kelly Barah said his team isn’t thinking about it.

“I have a group of girls that doesn’t really care about what their (the Lions’) season or ours has looked like.

We’ve prided ourself in the fact that we take it one game at a time, so for us it’s just one more game,” Barah said.

FREE STATE’S AMBER HICKS (3) FIGHTS for control of the ball against Olathe East on Tuesday. The Firebirds will look to bounce back from their loss to the Hawks as they take on Lawrence High tonight at FSHS. “We’re not listening to the hype, but we also know it’s a rivalry game, so we’ll need to check our emotions and all of that kind of stuff.”

The good news for LHS, coach Janna Kepler said, is that neither statistics nor records are going to water down the Lions’ excitement when they take on the Firebirds.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s basketball team will play Temple in a home-andhome series starting with a game next season in Allen Fieldhouse.

The return game will be played not the following season, but in 2014-15 at Wells Fargo Center, home of the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers.

“Temple is a top 25 team and this takes us back to the East Coast,” said KU schedule-maker Larry Keating, referring to fertile recruiting ground.

Coach Fran Dunphy’s Atlantic 10 champs return two starters off a 24-8 team that fell to South Florida in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. KU is looking for one additional marquee home game. A proposed series with Indiana has not materialized.

Lawrence’s 2-0 road win Tuesday at Shawnee Mission North, the Lions’ first victory since March 27 and their only Sunflower League win, gave the team some much needed confidence.

“It’s great,” Kepler said, “because it made the girls realize that they still love to play the game, that they do have the capability to play in this league.”

Grob: “Getting too fast was my main thing, so I need to slow down and keep my head down through impact.”

Mendez: “No penalty shots or anything like that. No three-putts and no two-chips.”

Firebirds junior Matt Soto added an important thing to remember on the “keep your head down” tip echoed by so many.

“Not only down (as in) up and down, but minimize your head movement left-to-right as well,” he said. “You don’t want to be swaying with your body.”

McCay CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

“I am very happy to be at Kansas, and I am going to go out and work hard every day to be the best teammate I can be. Even though I won’t be playing in games this year, I am going to take advantage of every opportunity I have to improve as a player.”

McCay, 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, will sit out the 2012 season but will be allowed to practice. He will be eligible to play again in 2013 as a junior and will have two years remaining.

McCay was listed on KU’s pre-spring depth chart as a second-string

“We’re talking to a couple of different people,” said Keating.

KU next season will travel to Ohio State and meet Michigan State on Nov. 13 in the Champions Classic in Atlanta. KU will play in the CBE Classic on Nov. 19-20 at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo., with Washington State, St. Louis and Texas A&M. No match-ups have yet been set.

The Jayhawks also plan to take a foreign exhibition tour in August. The destination will be somewhere in Europe. KU will release details once tour stops are finalized.

In 2013-14, KU will play in the Battle 4 Atlantis Tournament in Bahamas.

No tourney has yet been chosen for 2014-15. KU will play in the Maui Invitational in 2015-16.

“Hopefully they’ll give us their best game, and we’ll, for sure, give them our best game,” she said.

Loneker said the city showdown has a way of producing drama.

“If you look at football, if you look at basketball, (the teams) always compete to their fullest capability, no matter what,” Loneker said. “You never know the outcome.”

Dear Annie: Last year, our youngest brother, “Don,” was diagnosed with throat cancer. Within three months, it spread over his entire body.

Don is only 58, married with two children.

When he was initially diagnosed and having a terrible time, his wife told people he was acting like a big baby. He drove himself to treatments or had a neighbor or brother-inlaw take him.

When the treatments didn’t help, he had to give up his job. His wife told the rest of us that her husband didn’t want to see us, although her family was allowed to stop by. She and her son (by a previous marriage) told Don that they were taking him for a drive, and she dumped him at the hospice about 40 miles away from home, even though there is a perfectly good one much closer.

Four days later, she called my sister and said

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

they had to do this because Don’s condition was so bad. The next day, my sister went to visit.

She said Don was alert, but very depressed. His wife had had the phone removed from his room.

Don had no idea that his family and co-workers had been trying to reach him. The co-workers had even taken up donations to help. He thought no one cared.

Now his wife has told the staff that he cannot have any guests unless she brings them. What can be done about a

How will Chelsea handle guest?

While I’ve never been a huge fan of talk show host Chelsea Handler, I’m curious about tonight’s “Chelsea Lately” (10 p.m., E!). The host, also an actress and author, has a good sense of the ridiculous and absolutely no scruples about discussing the intimate, embarrassing and disgusting.

Both talents should come in handy when chatting with Jennifer Love Hewitt, whose new Lifetime series, “The Client List,” is ridiculously disgusting. For the uninitiated, “The Client List” is about a hapless single mother who drives 200 miles a day to work at a massage parlor, where sexual “extras” are on the menu.

The show would be tragic if it weren’t so stupid and absurd. Given the material, I’m curious to see what Handler makes of “The Client List” and its star.

The 2009 documentary “65-RedRoses” (8 p.m., OWN) makes its television debut. It tells the story of Eva Markvoort, a woman who fights a genetic disorder and bonds with fellow patients while awaiting a crucial transplant. ‘‘Roses” sounds important, well-meaning and redemptive. In short, it’s like much of the primetime programming on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

It’s no secret that OWN has been struggling since its debut in January 2011. It’s never easy to start a new network, even when its founder was the host and executive producer of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” But OWN has too much educational “Oprah” and not enough fun, celebrities-jumpingon-the-couch “Oprah.” It’s become the eat-your-broccoli network.

Tonight’s other highlights

Each study group member reacts to tragedy differently on “Community” (7 p.m., NBC).

A new nemesis is exposed on “Missing” (7 p.m., ABC).

Angie Jordan’s (Sherri Shepherd) boutique line is launched on “30 Rock” (7:30 p.m., NBC).

Finch wants Reese to recharge his batteries on “Person of Interest” (8 p.m., CBS).

Jim and Dwight join forces to fend off competition from a sister branch on “The Office” (8 p.m., NBC).

Jake’s numbers enable Martin to help a French woman find her birth mother on “Touch” (8 p.m., Fox).

Leslie continues to campaign on “Parks and Recreation” (8:30 p.m., NBC).

Lisbon and Cho reconsider relationships past and present on “The Mentalist” (9 p.m., CBS).

person so evil that she would allow him to die alone like this? — Indianapolis Dear Indianapolis: This sounds like a nightmare. Hospice follows the instructions of the person with power of attorney. Try contacting the social worker at hospice and ask whether someone will check on Don to see whether he can receive phone calls. If your brother is of sound mind, he can ask for the phone to be put back in his room. And if you can temporarily set aside your differences with Don’s wife, call her and ask whether there is anything you can do to help, and whether you can accompany her to see Don. Dear Annie: My husband is extremely overweight. He has back problems, and his knees ache.

I have discussed the dangers of heart problems, the increased chance of diabetes, etc., but he real-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, May 3: This year people often act in the most unpredictable manner. You’ll wonder why. Power plays abound.

If you are single, you could meet an interesting cast of people. If you are attached, you discover newfound ground on which to relate to each other, if you pull out of control games.

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 react and simply not care, leaving others wondering what has happened.

At this point, you march to the beat of a different drummer.

Tonight: Be with your favorite person.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Look around at your immediate circle. You might see some strange behavior emerging. Tonight: Keep it easy and light.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Go with the unexpected, even if you are not sure where it is going to land you. Pressure builds, as you feel you should go along with someone’s suggestion. Tonight: Let off some steam.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Stay close to home, if possible. The unexpected will occur when you are out. Tonight: Head home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Listen to news that is forthcoming. You might be wondering about the values of less controlling people. Tonight: Return calls before going out.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A partner or associate might act in an irresponsible man-

ly doesn’t care. Unfortunately, it has affected the way I look at him. Seeing his belly folding over his belt is NOT a turn-on. It is disturbing to see the one you love neither care what he looks like nor see what he is doing to our marriage. How can I get him to realize the severity of this? — Concerned Dear Concerned: Your husband knows he is overweight, but the idea of diet and exercise is probably more effort than he is willing to put forth. Your criticisms are not going to create an incentive, so please find another tack. If you are in charge of the meals at home, make sure they are healthful. Invite him to join you for a walk after dinner. Above all, he needs to know you love him regardless, and that your concern is because you want him around longer, not because you want him to be more attractive in bed.

ner. You might not like what is going down. Tonight: Your treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) What many people would call shocking, you’ll handle with comparative ease. Isolate a controlling situation; you might want to stop feeding its dynamics. Tonight: It is wish-upon-a-star time.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Take your time when responding to a surprise. You do not want to act on your first impression.

Tonight: Cocoon yourself.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Meetings could bring surprising results. If you sit back and give it some thought, the outcome could be most beneficial. Tonight: Where people are.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take a stand if you must. Others might think you are unusually controlling or overly dominant. Tonight: A must appearance.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Listen to a suggestion more openly. Your inner voice could be already judging and making decisions. Tonight: Read between the lines with a loved one.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a strong sense of direction right now. You might not be able to relate as directly with a key associate at first.

Tonight: Make it OK to blur the lines of your personal life and your outside life.
