A MAJOR CONCERN

Rec center would cost $100,000 per month ——

Special sales tax district would also be required By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

At Texas A&M, 37 percent of the men’s basketball players and football players major in agricultural leadership and development, compared with less than 1 percent of nonathletes.

Between 2004 and 2012, 43 players who’ve indicated a major in media guides have passed through the KU men’s program. Of those, 61 percent have majored in communications, African and African-American studies, or American studies.

It will take $100,000 per month in lease payments for the next 20 years — and a new special sales tax district — for the city to build a regional recreation center in northwest Lawrence. But as city officials on Friday released the most detailed figures yet for the project, Lawrence Mayor Bob Schumm said he’s becoming more convinced the project is a good deal for the city. That’s in part because the new numbers indicate Lawrence developer Thomas Fritzel and his company essentially are offering to finance the project interest free, representing a potential savings of about $8 million Schumm for the city. “It is a gift to the city,” Schumm said of the offer. “There is really no other way to look at it.” City commissioners at their meeting on Tuesday will receive a public briefing on plans to build a regional recreation complex on the northwest corner of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway. Here’s a look at some of the newest details:

The city will make $1.2 million a year in lease payments to Fritzel for 20 years, for a total of $24 million. At the end of the 20-year period, the city will own the recreation center. The city will own the ground — which is proposed to be donated by Please see CENTER, page 5A

At Iowa State, seven of 11 men’s basketball players majored in liberal studies.

At Baylor University, 51 percent of the football players major in general studies, compared with just 1 percent of all other undergraduates.

Athletes’ tendencies to ‘cluster’ in certain academic fields problematic, some say By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

ONLINE: See graphics at LJWorld.com

The “player,” highly recruited from Miami or New York or Philadelphia, shows up on campus in Norman or Stillwater or Lawrence. He’s ready to catch touchdown passes or throw down hammer dunks to help his

team in the competitive world of college athletics in the Big 12 Conference. A couple of years on campus, and the player expects to leave some eligibility on the table and take his talents to the NFL or NBA. But first, there’s that college part. Surrounded by a team of tutors and advisers, the player must go to classes and maintain a certain GPA. Not sure what to major

What is ‘clustering’? Clustering describes a situation where university student athletes congregate in a particular major. Previous academic studies and USA Today have looked at this in the past. The JournalWorld is the first to review

the Big 12 specifically. In all the studies before this, clustering was found, to varying degrees, mostly in men’s basketball and football. Researchers say clustering occurs when 25 percent of a team is in one major.

How we conducted our study Using information available on athletic department websites, we collected the most current information about athletes’ majors for:

Big 12 men’s basketball and football teams, including those entering or leaving the conference this year.

Men’s basketball teams who played in the NCAA’s “Sweet 16” this year.

All KU sports teams for the current year.

The KU men’s basketball team from 2004 to 2012. In cases where clustering was found, we collected information from the various schools on the percentage of all undergraduate students in those majors. For some athletes, majors were not indicated, and those players were not included in our study.

Suspects accused of child abuse here had neglect case in Illinois By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

The Illinois child and family welfare agency substantiated neglect allegations last November against a suburban Chicago couple accused of tying up two of their young children on Wednesday in a west Lawrence Walmart parking lot. Kendall Marlowe, a spokesman for the Illinois Department of Children and Family, said Friday that in December the department opened a supportive services case working with A. Gomez the family of Adolfo Gomez Jr. and Deborah M. Gomez after the allegations were substantiated. The children were not removed from the home as part of the case, and it was closed in April, he said. Douglas County prosecutors on Thursday filed two D. Gomez counts of child abuse each and other felony counts against the couple after Lawrence police Wednesday morning discovered a 5-year-old boy and 7-year-old girl blindfolded with their hands and feet bound near the family’s vehicle outside Walmart, 550 Congressional Drive.

‘Tongie A fundraiser’s best friend Mutts strut split’ just their stuff at Barkarusafest a myth WEATHER

By Chansi Long

By Alex Garrison acgarrison@ljworld.com

Thursday night, a big thunderstorm rolled through southern Nebraska and into north-central Kansas. The National Weather Service office in Topeka issued a severe thunderstorm watch for the area, including Douglas County, predicting heavy rains. And then, Douglas County received just a few drops. Was this evidence of a socalled “Tonganoxie split,” an oft-noted phenomenon of storms splitting up before hitting south of the town, and thus missing the Lawrence area? The short answer: No. Many may claim belief in a split because of low rainfall, but meteorologists say Lawrence receives the same amount of rain as surrounding towns and that ideas otherwise are based on “short memories” affected by this year’s lower-than-average rainfall. In fact, NWS meteorologist Shawn Byrne said, Lawrence has gotten more rain so far this month than Topeka has: .31 of an inch compared with .19 of an inch. Thursday night’s storm lost its power because the sunshine-heated ground caused lower air to warm and instability in the system to be lost, canceling its ability to spill

There was the smell of barbecue, the sound of David Bowie covers and the sight of children jumping in a bounce house. There were also 54 dogs. Dogs were weaving through owners’ legs and tugging at the ends of leashes. It seemed like nearly every breed of dog was represented at Friday’s Mutt ’N Strut and Barkarusafest, a dual event hosted by the Lawrence Humane Society and Pawsh Wash, 1520 Wakarusa Drive. “I am thrilled at the turnout, I am thrilled with the weather ... and I just think we’re all having a great time on Friday night,” said Amber Nickel, co-owner of Pawsh Wash. There were plenty of dogs present. But there were also plenty of people. Among them was dog owner Jennifer Isaacs, who brought Peanut and Red. Red was a rescue from the Humane Society. Isaacs adopted him so Peanut could have some company. And it seemed only fitting for her to come to Mutt ’N Strut in support of the Humane Society,

SATURDAY COLUMN

Now is the time to discuss details of rec complex By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Various local developers say they have never seen a major Lawrence development advance so quickly and enjoy such enthusiastic support from City Hall as the proposed recreation/commercial project at the northwest corner of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway. In past years, projects of similar size that would open up sizable acreage for retail development some distance from the highly protected downtown business districts, often have faced long, contentious delays and had to jump through numerous hoops before getting the go-ahead from city leaders. The proposed northwest Lawrence recreation complex is an ambitious project, and there is no question it would be a major asset for the city. Plans call for a large fieldhouse with eight basketball courts, the Kansas University track, perhaps soccer fields and other athletic facilities.

In addition, sizable acreage would be set aside for commercial/retail development, creating the potential for large “big-box” stores, smaller retail outlets, restaurants, motels and other commercial operations. The star attraction would be the basketball facility, which would be designed to host regional high school and AAU basketball tournaments. KU basketball coach Bill Self and his wife, Cindy, have proposed making a pledge of more than $1 million through their Assists Foundation, which would play a central role in developing and marketing the facility. No community could be more fortunate than Lawrence in having the Selfs’ generosity and involvement. In a relatively short time, the highly successful Jayhawk basketball coach has become just as much a star and prized asset as any of his players. If the Selfs are supportive of a project that provides healthy recreational facilities for young people it’s bound to be a winner. Added to the generous contributions of the Selfs through

their Assists Foundation, the father-son team of Duane and Steve Schwada has offered 50 acres for the project at no cost to the city. The Schwadas have a good, sound record in Lawrence. They are tough, but they carry through on their word. There is no double talk, which often is the case with developers.

COMMENTARY With the combined efforts of the Selfs and Schwadas, the project seems to be on a fast track for approval. However, there are questions or concerns about the project that should be addressed. Most of those interested in the project, whether they are enthusiastic backers or, particularly, if they have serious questions, acknowledge they are hesitant to be too critical for fear of offending the Selfs. They don’t want to say anything or raise serious concerns or objections that might cause the Selfs

to pull out of the project. They don’t want to appear not to appreciate the Selfs’ generosity or possibly be the cause for altering the grand-sounding plan. They don’t want to be looked upon by fellow Lawrencians as being responsible for delaying or damaging the chances for a successful and unique development. The fact is, city officials should acknowledge the huge project would indeed have a major impact on downtown Lawrence, which, in the past, has been looked upon as an untouchable, the city’s finest asset. Nothing would be approved that might damage the 10-block downtown area. Who’s kidding whom? The recreation project could easily suck the air out of downtown, with many retail, commercial and athletic operations. How are those on the east side of Lawrence, particularly children, expected to get to the center: on foot, on bicycles or by special transportation? If Kansas University athletic officials intend to build a track

Pearson Collision Repair 749-4455

at the far northwest corner of the city, will it be open for public use? Who will control the facility, and who will be responsible for the cost of its operation and upkeep? It’s far better to ask questions, tough questions, now, rather than 10 years from now, about why the project was fasttracked through City Hall. The public, taxpayers, need to know all there is to know about the project, the potential commercial development and how it could affect Lawrence’s downtown. How will children and adults from throughout the city be able to access and use the many athletic facilities. What is the cost to use the basketball courts, soccer fields, track and field venues, exercise equipment and other attractions? It’s a great idea and would be great for the city, but there needs to be complete openness and transparency on all facets of the development, the good and less good. There should be no hidden or overlooked details and no after-the-fact waivers.

The $1.14 billion National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility would research dangerous animal diseases representing a threat to the nation’s food supply, and backers of the project say it’s vital to national security. Kansas officials also see the lab, with potentially several hundred high-paying jobs, as an engine of economic growth and an anchor for an emerging biosciences industry. Congress set aside $90 million for DHS to build a new utility plant for the lab and continue work on the site in Manhattan but told the agency it couldn’t spend the money until the National Research Council finished its latest report. In a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, also Friday, the U.S. senators for Kansas and Missouri said “this final hurdle” had been cleared. Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback joined the state’s senators, Pat Roberts and Jerry Moran, in calling on Napolitano to release the funds. The letter also was signed by Missouri Sens. Roy Blunt and Claire McCaskill. All are Republicans except for McCaskill, but the lab has strong bipartisan support among Kansas officials, who’ve hoped it would be operating by 2018. — Reporter Alex Garrison can be And Ron Trewyn, vice reached at 832-7261.

said the new lab will face permitting and “rigorous” reviews by other federal agencies, so that further pre-construction safety assessments would accomplish little. “It’s time to build the building,” he said. “It’s time to move forward.” Kansas officials have worried about resistance in Congress to continued funding for the new lab, which would replace an aging one on Plum Island, N.Y. U.S. Rep. Tim Bishop, a New York Democrat whose district includes Plum Island, said the latest report underscores the concerns that he and others have about “this billion-dollar boondoggle.” He promised to raise the National Research Council report as an issue with Napolitano and in Congress. “It would be irresponsible to move forward with building this costly and controversial facility without fully understanding the risks associated with it,” Bishop said. The National Research Council is an arm of the National Academy of Sciences, a private nonprofit group that advises the federal government. The council’s report Friday was the second time in two years that it had questioned a Homeland Security assessment of the risks associated with the new lab. In 2010, based on Homeland Security’s own data, the council determined there was a 70 percent chance of an acciden-

tal release of a dangerous disease leading to an outbreak outside the lab during the facility’s 50-year lifespan. The DHS assessment in March — based on revised designs — said the risk was about onetenth of 1 percent. But the council’s Friday report called the March assessment “technically inadequate in critical respects.” The council said Homeland Security overestimated the danger posed by tornadoes and earthquakes but underestimated the potential risks of a disease being released by human error. The report’s writers also said DHS failed to consider how multiple safety systems depend upon each other and can fail during a single event. Gregory Baecher, a University of Maryland engineering professor and chairman of the reportcompiling committee, stressed in a telephone conference call with reporters that the review doesn’t assess the safety of the planned biosecurity lab. Instead, it’s designed to tell policymakers whether the information

provided by the most recent DHS assessment is reliable. “We don’t think the analysis has been done well enough that any of these numbers are trustable as the basis for judging risk,” Baecher said. “Decision-makers in Congress or DHS or other places, we believe, still do not have an adequate scientific basis for knowing the risks associated with NBAF.” But like Kansas officials, DHS spokeswoman Nicole Stickel noted that the report from Baecher’s committee also called the new lab “a critical asset” and said its designs are sound. She said the National Research Council’s findings will be incorporated into the federal agency’s plans. “These efforts advance the planning for a safe and secure state-of-the-art biocontainment facility,” she said.

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT

• Officers with the Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control and Kansas University and Lawrence police departments Thursday night cited five people in an effort to crack down on underage drinking and fake IDs. Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said officers checked nine licensed establishments as part of the Fake ID 101 task force operation. The citations included four charges for possession of alcohol by a minor and three charges for possession or use of a fake ID. Some people were cited for more than one charge. ABC officers also issued administrative citations to three establishments — Bullwinkle’s, Tonic and Phoggy Dog — alleging employees allowed minors to possess alcohol. The ABC also cited Quinton’s Bar and Deli for failing to frame and hang its state liquor license in a conspicuous area.

FIRE CALL

Jennifer Isaacs, KU student, Lawrence “Peanut. I found her on the side of the road when she was 6 or 7 weeks old and she was small enough to be a peanut.”

teered at the Humane Society for the last couple of years, said the best part of Mutt ’N Strut was the diversity on display. And the Walkers have seven dogs of their own on display at home. For Nickel, one of the event’s organizers, Barkarusafest was a success. She hopes that it and events like it will strengthen Lawrence’s dog community. “The reason that we do this kind of stuff is that (we) want Lawrence to be the best place in the world to have a dog,” Nickel said. “All of the businesses that have come together, all of the people gathering so that we can all have a good time on a Friday night, listening to music and hanging out with our best friends and our kids ... it just makes me happy. Pure joy.”

• A Lawrence police officer used a fire extinguisher to put out a smoldering object in a stairwell about 6:15 a.m. Friday at Days Inn, 730 Iowa. Police were originally called to the hotel for a trespassing call but did not take a report. Division Chief Eve Tolefree, a LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical spokeswoman, said the fire was out before firefighters arrived. The fire was started because of improper discarding of smoking material and that it did less than $500 in damage.

INJURY ACCIDENT A 23-year-old Lawrence man was injured early Friday morning after he crashed his

motorcycle into the roundabout at 19th Street and Barker Avenue. Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said Michael D. Moss told police he was headed south on Barker Avenue on a 2005 Suzuki SV-650 while he was driving “too quickly” to negotiate the roundabout. The crash occurred just after 2 a.m. Moss was wearing a helmet, and he suffered an injury to the lower part of his left leg. McKinley said the accident report indicates officers have not issued any citations but that blood test results are pending.

Western Kansas dairy signs exclusive deal with Dannon REXFORD (AP) — An agreement between a western Kansas dairy company and yogurt-maker Dannon Co. could be a first step toward making Kansas a major player in the nation’s dairy industry, Gov. Sam Brownback said. Under the agreement announced Thursday in Rexford, McCarty Dairy will be the sole supplier of milk to Dannon’s yogurt factory in Fort Worth, Texas. The McCarty family milks nearly 7,200 cows daily at farms in Rexford, Bird City and Scott City, The Hays Daily News reported. A processing plant

in Rexford gets milk from the three dairies, pasteurizes it and strips out water. The dried milk will be used by Dannon for its yogurt. When they settled near Rexford 12 years ago from Pennsylvania, the McCartys were milking 750 cows, family patriarch Tom McCarty told about 150 people, including Brownback and Dannon officials. “It’s the only one of its kind in North America,” he said of the deal with Dannon, “which I didn’t even know until the other day.” It took about two years to reach the agreement,

said McCarty, who declined to discuss the financial details. Brownback heralded the deal. “We wanted to be a major animal state,” Brownback said. “We are. We wanted to be a major dairy state. We are. We’ve got the water. We’ve got the productive land. We’ve got the wind.” His comment about the wind was in jest, although he was quick to say Kansas is leading the nation in terms of capital investments in wind energy this year. “We welcome Dannon to Kansas,” he said.

Shawnee woman dies on mission SHAWNEE (AP) — A 20-year-old Shawnee woman has died of a seizure while doing mission work in Romania, her family said. Alexis Brownlee had been in Medias, Romania, for nearly a month when she died last weekend of a seizure, said her father, lawyer Timothy Brownlee of Shawnee. Alexis Brownlee had been teaching English and evangelizing in Romania as part of her studies at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla. Alexis Brownlee was expected to graduate soon with a major in mission work and a minor in Spanish, The Kansas City Star reported. “It’s just tragic, but she was doing what she was always supposed to do,”

“

She was doing exactly what she felt called to do in a way that very few people are brave or committed enough to do.” — Timothy Brownlee, of Shawnee, father of Alexis Brownlee Timothy Brownlee said. “She was doing exactly what she felt called to do in a way that very few people are brave or committed enough to do.” Timothy Brownlee said his daughter had suffered seizures before but that she had recently been doing well. Alexis Brownlee graduated in 2009 from Maranatha Academy and fin-

ished her years there with the school’s most prestigious honor, the Christian Character Award. From there she went to Oral Roberts University. Oral Roberts spokesman Jeremy Burton expressed sympathy to the family, saying Alexis “was well loved on campus” and that “the Oral Roberts University family is saddened by her loss but we have peace knowing that she is in heaven.” The work in Romania had been something of a dream come true for his daughter, Timothy Brownlee said. “She wanted to be a missionary,” he said, “and that was the call of her life.” Services have been scheduled for Sunday in Shawnee.

Center CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Lawrence developers Duane and Steve Schwada — from the very beginning. Fritzel — who is an executive with Lawrencebased Gene Fritzel Construction Co. — will build the center. Schumm previously had said he expected the project to cost the city somewhere in the $13 million to $16 million range. But that was a cost estimate, he said Friday, that did not include interest costs that would have to be paid on a bond that would have financed the project. With the interest costs, the city would have paid about $24 million over a 20-year period to build a recreation center on its own, but Schumm said the center would have been significantly smaller than what is now proposed. Under the Fritzel offer, the entire $24 million will be used for construction. “We’ll basically be getting three-eighths more of a facility than we ever thought we could get,” Schumm said. The city would make the lease payments of $1.2 million a year to Fritzel with money that has become available as the city recently has paid off several projects — the indoor aquatics center and the Community Health Building are examples. “We will not have to raise any taxes to build this building,” Schumm said. Attempts to reach Fritzel for comment on his involvement in the project were not successful Friday.

Saturday, June 16, 2012

The $24 million in payments to Fritzel will not cover any of the infrastructure and road costs to serve the site. The city has estimated it will cost about $2.4 million to extend water and sewer service to the site. Currently, the city is proposing those costs be paid for by city ratepayers. The city doesn’t yet have a cost estimate to build roads for the site. But the city is now proposing that a special taxing district be created to pay for the roads. Under the proposal, an extra 1 percent sales tax would be charged on all sales made at the recreation center plus the approximately 100 acres adjacent to the center that would be privately-owned and commercially developed.

The project is still envisioned to have a major Kansas University component. Schumm said he believes KU is very eager to build an outdoor trackand-field stadium and a soccer field at the site. Under the current pro-

| 5A

posal, Fritzel would be the builder of those facilities as well. KU’s involvement in the project is expected to help make the center attractive to regional and national youth tournaments, which city leaders believe will provide a major boost to the city’s economy.

Neighbors of the proposed site have filed a protest petition objecting to the proposed commercial zoning for the property. Schumm said city officials have met with area homeowners twice and will continue to meet in the future. He said several concerns center around lighting and usage of the outdoor track and field stadium. Schumm said a current design for the site attempts to keep the stadium about 600 feet away from the nearest residence. Commissioners will meet at 6:35 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall to receive a briefing on the project. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362. Follow him at Twitter.com/clawhorn_ljw.

Abortion law doesn’t cut insurance costs WICHITA — A Kansas law restricting private insurance coverage for abortions has made it more difficult to obtain the procedure without doing much, if anything, to reduce overall insurance premiums or protect women’s health, the American Civil Liberties Union said Friday. The ACLU made the claim in a federal court filing that, for the first time, documents the impact of a state law that took effect last year, prohibiting insurance companies from offering abortion coverage as part of general health plans, except when a woman’s life is at risk. Kansas residents who want coverage for abortions must buy supplemental policies, known as riders. The ACLU has asked U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson to strike down the statute because its purpose is to make it more difficult for women to obtain abortions. The group claims the Kansas law robs women of their existing insurance coverage, forcing them to pay out of pocket for abortions and penalizing their exercise of a constitutional right. “The Act does nothing to inform a woman’s choice; rather it obstructs it. It also does nothing to protect a woman’s health; in fact, it endangers it. It does not reduce the cost of health insurance in any meaningful way.

Obama acts to spare many youths from deportation By Alicia A. Caldwell and Jim Kuhnhenn Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama suddenly eased enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws Friday, an extraordinary step offering a chance for hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants to stay in the country and work. Embraced by Hispanics, his action touched off an election-year confrontation with many Republicans. Mitt Romney, Obama’s GOP election foe, criticized the step but did not say he would try to overturn it if elected. Obama said the change would become effective immediately to “lift the shadow of deportation from these young people.” “Let’s be clear, this is not amnesty, this is not immunity, this is not a path to citizenship, this is not a permanent fix,” Obama said from the White House Rose Garden. “This is the right thing to do.” The administration said the change will affect as many as 800,000 immigrants who have lived in fear of deportation. It bypasses Congress and partially achieves the goals of the “DREAM Act,” legislation that would have provided a pathway to citizenship for young illegal immigrants who went to college or served in the military. Under the administra-

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Secret Service agents and officers have been accused of involvement with prostitutes, leaking sensitive information, publishing pornography, sexual assault, illegal wiretaps, improper use of weapons and drunken behavior, according to internal government reports reviewed by The Associated Press on Friday. It wasn’t immediately clear how many of the accusations turned out to be true. The new disclosures of so many serious accusations since 2004 lend weight to concerns expressed by Congress that the Secret Service prostitution scandal in April in Colombia exposed a culture of misconduct within the agency. Secret Service Director Mark Sullivan apologized for the incident

BRIEFLY 1950s locker room prank behind slaying MADISON, S.D. — From the moment 73-year-old Carl Ericsson rang his old high school classmate’s doorbell in January, verified the man’s identity and then shot him dead, the question had been what prompted him to confront a man he hadn’t even spoken to in years. The startling answer, a prosecutor said Friday, was a 1950s locker room humiliation that festered in Ericsson’s mind for a half-century. “He said that a jockstrap was put on his head,” Kenneth Meyer said. “It’s the only thing he’s ever mentioned in talking to law enforcement.” Ericsson was sentenced Friday to life in prison.

They also can apply for a work permit that will be good for two years with no limits on how many times it can be renewed. The move comes in an election year in which the Hispanic vote could be critical in swing states like Colorado, Nevada and Florida. While Obama enjoys support from a majority of Hispanic voters over Republican challenger Romney, Latino

dent has been tempered by the slow economic recovery, his inability to win congressional support for a broad overhaul of immigration laws and by his administration’s aggressive deportation policy. Some Republicans in Congress — and the governor of Arizona, whose state has been at the center of enforcement controversy — strongly criticized the Obama action. But the response from Romney was more muted. Romney said Obama’s decision will make finding a long-term solution to the nation’s immigration issues more difficult. But he also said the plight of illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children is “an important matter to be considered.”

Secret Service accusations revealed By Alicia A. Caldwell

during a hearing in May but insisted that what happened in Colombia was an isolated case. A leading senator who has been investigating the Colombia scandal, Susan Collins, R-Maine, said some of the accusations appeared legitimate and that “adds to my concern about apparent misconduct by some of the personnel of this vital law enforcement agency.” “The key question is whether these incidents indicate a larger cultural problem,” Collins said Friday. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., said Friday an investigation by the Secret Service’s inspector general is continuing and the public should withhold judgment until that review is complete. The heavily censored list, which runs 229 pages, was quietly released under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act to The Associ-

ated Press and other news organizations following the prostitution scandal. It describes accusations filed against Secret Service employees with the Homeland Security Department’s inspector general. Some of the accusations occurred as recently as last month. In many cases, the government noted that some of the claims were resolved administratively, and others were being formally investigated. The complaints included an alleged sexual assault reported in August 2011. They also included an anonymous complaint in October 2003 that a Secret Service agent “may have been involved with a prostitution ring,” noting that two telephone numbers belonging to the agent, whose name was censored and who has since retired, turned up as part of an FBI investigation into a prostitution ring.

BILLINGS, MONT. — A West Virginia man who claimed to be the victim of a drive-by shooting along a rural Montana highway while working on a memoir called “Kindness in America” has confessed to shooting himself, authorities said Friday. Valley County sheriff’s officials said they believe 39-year-old Ray Dolin shot himself as a desperate act of self-promotion, but they offered no further details. Dolin, of Julian, W.Va., acknowledged he concocted the tale about the random shooting after he was confronted by investigators at a Veterans Affairs hospital in Miles City where he is recovering, said Sheriff Glen Meier. Charges were pending, and the case remains under investigation. Dolin has not been arrested, but the weapon he allegedly used to carry out the scheme has been recovered, the sheriff said.

Kansas jobless rate steady in May

Kan. harvest yields quality wheat so far

TOPEKA — Kansas officials say the state saw few changes in its economy in May as the unemployment rate remained steady at 6.1 percent. The state Department of Labor said Friday that the economy continues to be stronger than it was last year. In May 2011, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 6.7 percent. Kansas continued to see modest job growth in the private sector compared to last year. About 1.1 million Kansans had jobs with private employers in May. The department said that’s about 10,800 more than in May 2011, or growth of about 1 percent. Some of the gain was offset by a drop in government employment over the year.

WICHITA — Industry groups estimate the Kansas winter wheat harvest is about 75 percent complete, with reports indicating a good quality crop so far. The Kansas Grain and Feed Association, in conjunction with other industry trade groups, reported Thursday that farmers in Barber County have finished their harvest. The OK Co-op Grain Co. says it took in 3 million bushels, with farmers averaging 45 to 55 bushels per acre. The crop quality in that area was excellent, as test weights averaged 61 pounds per bushel. Sumner County farmers brought in about 45 to 50 bushels per acre.

You can even get an independent study course with that favorite professor. Several of the players can take it together. Play on, player.

‘Clustering’ The situation described above is a worstcase scenario of academic major “clustering,” which happens when a large percentage of players on a sports team share a major. An in-depth JournalWorld study of Big 12 athletics, including the incoming and outgoing teams this year, found widespread clustering — defined by researchers as 25 percent of a team sharing one major — in men’s basketball and football programs. Some of the more significant cases of clustering found in the study include:

Baylor football team: 51 percent of players major in general studies, compared with just 1 percent of all other undergraduates.

Texas A&M: 37 percent of the men’s basketball players and football players major in agricultural leadership and development, compared with less than 1 percent of nonathletes.

Iowa State: Seven of 11 men’s basketball players majored in liberal studies. The study also examined the majors of all Kansas University athletics teams. In the last season, student athletes’ majors appear fairly distributed at KU. But a closer look at the KU men’s basketball team through the years tells a different story. Between 2004 and 2012, 43 players who’ve indicated a major in media guides have passed through the KU men’s program. Of those, 61 percent have majored in communications, African and African-American studies, or American studies. Think of the best players to come through Lawrence over the past few years, and there’s a good chance they majored in one of those three. Mario Chalmers, Tyshawn Taylor, Sherron Collins? All African and African-American studies majors. Brandon Rush, Cole Aldrich, Julian Wright? Communications majors. Thomas Robinson and the Morris twins? American studies. Of the 17 KU players since 2004 who have been drafted or signed by an NBA team, 13 have majored in those same three majors. Those majors were disproportionately high among basketball players compared with the total undergraduate student body, as well as among KU student athletes. Such clustering, though,

Officers detained Deborah Gomez inside the store without incident.

fit for athletes who might want to pursue sports coaching or sports broadcasting, he said. For those KU men’s basketball players who choose African and African-American studies, there’s also a logical answer. All of the KU players since 2004 who chose that major are themselves black. They show up in Lawrence, a predominantly white community, oftentimes from cities with high black populations. That dynamic interests them, Buskirk said. “It’s part of who they are,” he said. There are other more head-scratching examples across the Big 12. At Oklahoma State, for instance, 34 percent of the football team majors in education. Though OSU has a large education school, 10 percent of undergraduates are education majors; the numbers are still disproportionate. Marilynn Middlebrook, OSU associate athletics director, said there’s a logical conclusion there as well. “They want to stay in football” as coaches, and choose education, Middlebrook said. “I don’t think ours is a clustering issue,” she said. What about Texas A&M, with 37 percent of football and basketball players majoring in agricultural leadership and development? According to the school’s website, the program is designed for those who plan to venture into the world of crops and farming. In Texas, that makes sense. But many of the basketball players who choose that major come from

“A large body of research now shows that children fare better when they maintain their ties to family,” he said. “And we always look first to relatives when we need to place children.” McKinley said extended family members have contacted Lawrence police after seeing news about the case, which has received national attention.

Next hearing As for the criminal case against Adolfo and Deborah Gomez, they are scheduled to appear with their appointed attorneys Thursday afternoon in front of District Judge Paula Martin. The judge likely will schedule a future preliminary hearing on Thursday. McKinley said Friday detectives were working with prosecutors to learn more about the incident, including why the two younger children were tied up.

places associated with anything but agriculture. There’s guard Dash Harris, from Los Angeles; forward David Loubeau, from Miami; and guard Naji Hibbert, from Baltimore. Representatives from Texas A&M declined an interview request but did provide an email statement. “There are a number of agriculture majors who are doing well in their respective fields and careers. The variety of these degree paths provide many options for our students, as well as our student athletes,” said John Thornton, interim director of athletics, in the statement. “It is not the specific degree that makes the student, but it is what the student does with that degree.”

Answers So what’s left are those universities who see no problems with clustering in their programs, despite the numbers, along with the NCAA, which isn’t publicly sounding alarm bells. Then there are those in the academic community, such as Finley and Lanter, who worry that big-time college athletics’ open secret of clustering leaves student athletes ill-prepared for a world outside of the field or court. “Do they really have academic freedom?” said Lanter, who is concerned that athletics programs use a player for his gifts, but fail to live up to their end of the bargain. “What’s really going on here?” — Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173. Follow him at Twitter.com/shaunhittle.

In addition to the neglect allegation substantiated in Illinois last year, the couple have faced other legal problems in the past, including 1998 convictions for leaving two young boys, ages 3 and 2, home alone at night in Naperville, Ill., while both parents worked night shifts, according to DuPage County court records in Illinois and the Chicago Tribune. A neighbor also told an NBC affiliate in Chicago Thursday she encountered Adolfo and Deborah Gomez last week before their attempt at a crosscountry trip as they were selling all of their belongings in preparation for the end of the world. McKinley said police believe they were attempting to visit family in Arizona before the vehicle broke down. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

His frantic fundraising — 160 events to date — alternates with swing-state rallies where the long-gone charisma of 2008 has been replaced by systematic special-interest pandering, from cutrate loans for indentured students to free contraceptives for women (the denial of which constitutes a “war” on same). Then came the rush of bad news: terrible May unemployment numbers, a crushing Democratic defeat in Wisconsin, and that curious re-

volt of the surrogates, as Bill Clinton, Deval Patrick and Cory Booker — all dispatched to promote Obama — ended up contradicting, undermining or deploring Obama’s anti-business attacks on Romney. Obama’s instinctive response? Get back out on the air. Call an impromptu Friday news conference. And proceed to commit the gaffe of the year: “The private sector is doing fine.” This didn’t just expose Obama to precisely the out-of-touchness charge he is trying to hang on Romney. It betrayed his core political philosophy. Obama was trying to attribute high unemployment to a paucity of government workers and to suggest that the solution was to pad the public rolls. In doing so, though, he fatally undid his many previous protestations of being a fiscally prudent government cutter. He thus positioned himself as, once again, the big-government liberal of 2009, convinced that what the ailing economy needs is yet another bout of government expansion. A serious political misstep, considering the fate of the last stimulus: the weakest recovery since the Great Depression with private sector growth a minuscule 1.2 percent.

But that’s not the end of the tribulations that provoked a front-page Washington Post story beginning: “Is it time for Democrats to panic”? The sleeper issue is the cascade of White House leaks that have exposed significant details of the cyberattacks on Iran, the drone war against al-Qaida, the doubleagent in Yemen and the Osama bin Laden raid and its aftermath. This is not leak-business as usual. “I have never seen it worse,” said Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, 11 years on the Intelligence Committee. These revelations, clearly meant to make Obama look the heroic warrior, could prove highly toxic if current investigations bear out Sen. John McCain’s charges of leaks tolerated, if not encouraged, by a campaigning president placing his own image above the nation’s security. Quite an indictment. Where it goes, no one knows. Much will hinge on whether Eric Holder’s Justice Department will stifle the investigation he has now handed over to two in-house prosecutors. And whether Republicans and principled Democrats will insist on a genuinely independent inquiry.

Nonetheless, there is nothing inexorable about the current Obama slide. The race remains 50-50. Republican demoralization after a primary campaign that blew the political equivalent of a seven-run lead has now given way to Democratic demoralization at the squandering of their subsequent post-primary advantage. What remains is a solid, stolid, gaffe-prone challenger for whom conservatism is a second language versus an incumbent with a record he cannot run on and signature policies — Obamacare, the stimulus, cap-andtrade — he dare hardly mention. A quite dispiriting spectacle. And more than a bit confusing. Why, just this week the estimable Jeb Bush averred that the Republican Party had become so rigidly right-wing that today it couldn’t even nominate Ronald Reagan. Huh? It just nominated Mitt Romney who lives a good 14 nautical miles to the left of Ronald Reagan. Goodness. Four more months of this campaign and we will all be unhinged. — Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for The Washington Post Writers Group.

PUBLIC FORUM

Vital funds To the editor: This would seem to be a very poor time to cut the funding for food stamps (SNAP) and WIC (Women, Infants and Children). Food prices are going up, and so are the costs for necessities that are purchased at the grocery but are not food, such as soap. Requests for help from the food banks are going up. Just Food in Lawrence saw a 145 percent increase between the first four months of 2011 and those of 2012. Food stamps have been very effective for many years in helping people who are in a temporary bind avoid slipping into poverty. They have helped others pull themselves out of the poverty status, which is around $22,000 yearly income for a family of four. Then too, they have softened the sharpest edge of poverty, hunger, for many others. Nearly half of the 46 million food stamp recipients are children. We can imagine how much it must hurt to know that your children are hungry and that you have no food to give them. We were all children once; surely we can find a better time to cut these important funds. Sarah Casad, Lawrence

ID irony To the editor: I watched with pure amazement as lines of candidates filed for office with Kris Kobach, protector of Kansas election integrity. Candidates who last week

lived in one county, filed in another county Monday using an address they could only remember by referring to the still-drying copy of their new rental agreement. Dozens of these candidates could no more produce a photo ID with their “current” address than they could name their neighbors on either side! No birth certificate, no photo ID needed; you are now a legally certified candidate for an office that determines the fate of the state budget, tax code, and statutes. Just don’t try to register to vote this way for any of these candidates once the Kobach anti-fraud unit is up and running. Saying you’re a Kansan and live in the district won’t cut it for mere voters. Have your affidavits in order and your notary public on speed dial! Can’t wait for the secretary of state’s new billboards: “Stamping Out Voter Fraud Wherever We Can’t Find It.” Steve Hitchcock, Baldwin City

standing support received proves that the people of Douglas County are truly committed to the fight against cancer. We applaud the more than 300 survivors and their caregivers who participated in the opening lap and the survivor recognition. They are the reason we continue the fight — because each year there can be more and more people living wonderful lives following a diagnosis of cancer and celebrating more birthdays. A special thanks goes to the many Relay For Life volunteers who worked to make this event a success. The Relay For Life committee did an outstanding job of putting the event together. We also appreciate the generosity of this year’s corporate sponsors. Relay For Life would not be possible without them. Again, thank you for supporting the American Cancer Society, and remember it’s not too early to become involved in Relay For Life for next year. Together we will save lives and create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. To the editor: Shelle Arnold and Barb Gorman, As co-chairs of this year’s co-chairs, Relay For Life of American Cancer Society Relay Douglas County For Life committee, we would like to thank residents of Douglas County for their generosity and support.

When successful, experienced teachers spend hours each week coaching, modeling techniques, assisting, demonstrating, observing and recoaching new or struggling teachers, student learning improves. Teachers who benefit from this model are much less likely to leave the profession within their first five years of teaching. When new student-learning models are introduced buildingor districtwide, teacher mentoring is by far the most effective way to make sure the model is implemented effectively. The broad body of research is solidly positive on this intervention for school improvement. Successful teacher-mentors still must manage, prepare for, teach and evaluate each of the students in their own classrooms. These professionals deserve increased pay. When scales do not provide for such pay, bonuses are an effective option. The business community insists that schools must implement merit pay. This is a form of professional growth pay that works. School districts where effective teacher-mentoring programs are in place have teacher, administrator, board of education and parental approval. No single intervention solves all problems, and that is no excuse for ending those that work best. Fund teacher mentoring, unless your objective is to ensure that public education fails. Barbara Palmer, Lawrence

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Back on track

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Milton Doyle, a 6-foot4, 185-pound combo guard out of Chicago’s Marshall High, will be attending Kansas University on basketball scholarship this season. Doyle — he averaged 19 points, seven rebounds, five assists and five steals a game his senior season — will arrive in Lawrence on Sunday and begin summer school classes on Monday, sources told the Journal-World. At KU, he’ll be a roommate of fellow freshman newcomer Tyler Self. Doyle, who visited KU on May 1415, graduated high school earlier this week. He had to wait on his final Doyle grades to be matched with his ACT score to see if he’d qualify for a scholarship at KU. Though the NCAA Clearinghouse typically does not officially clear any players for eligibility until late summer, it is believed Doyle will be fully qualified to play college basketball as a freshman. Doyle, a first-team Chicago Sun Times all-Public League selection and thirdteam Chicago Tribune allstater, decommitted from Florida International in early spring following the firing of FIU coach Isiah Thomas. Doyle, who last month scored 20 points in the Chicago Public League all-star game, is unranked nationally by Rivals.com. He missed his entire junior season after transferring from Chicago Tilden to Marshall because of a broken wrist. He did not play AAU ball in July last year, instead concentrating on his academic work. Doyle chose KU over Marquette, a school he would have visited had things not worked out in terms of receiving a scholarship offer at KU.

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY DIRECTOR OF BASKETBALL OPERATIONS BARRY HINSON, RIGHT, CELEBRATES with center Jeff Withey after the Jayhawks’ win over North Carolina to advance to the Final Four on March 25 in St. Louis.

Hinson all class and classroom in coaching comeback Endless smiles. Quick oneliners. Southern-fried charm. An encouraging word and a drop of wisdom for everyone who crossed his path. Bill Self’s close friend Barry Hinson showed that face to the public during his four years in Lawrence working for the Kansas University athletic department in the wake of his unjust firing by Missouri State. Now that he’s back in the ranks of head coach, hired March 28 by Southern Illinois University, Hinson reveals that was his poker face Lawrence saw. Behind it, a bruise stretched from head to heart to gut.

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

“There were probably only three people in Lawrence who knew how much it bothered me and how much it hurt me,” Hinson said by phone from his new office in Carbondale, Ill. “My wife, Angie, coach Self and Cindy Self.”

Hinson didn’t hide his true feelings when interviewed by the SIU search committee charged with finding a replacement for Chris Lowery. After nearly two hours of answering questions, Hinson was asked if he had any himself. He said he had one question and then a statement. The question: “I’m going to ask you guys if you have any concerns with me because I got fired.” Hinson said it was quiet until one member said if they had concerns he would not be standing in front of them. The statement: “I’m not damaged goods. We won at Missouri State. We didn’t

have any violations. We graduated our student-athletes. And we had the thirdbest record in the Missouri Valley (Conference) in my nine years. I’m not damaged goods. If you hire me, you’re going to hire a guy who comes into this conference extremely upset.” Hinson said he grew very emotional during that point of the interview. “Later to find out,” he said, “they liked it.” They also liked that Hinson had the highest academic-progress rate in the conference.

Woods ties for lead after second day The Associated Press

TIGER WOODS CONSIDERS HIS SHOT during the second round of the U.S. Open Championship golf tournament on Friday at The Olympic Club in San Francisco. Woods ended the day tied for first place with Jim Furyk and David Toms.

SAN FRANCISCO — There were no fist pumps for Tiger Woods, just a deep breath and a slow exhale. Jim Furyk walked most of the 7,170 yards at Olympic Club with his head down. David Toms couldn’t think of a single shot he hit without his full attention Friday. They were not the survivors of the U.S. Open. They were the leaders. And it’s no coincidence that all of them have been tested in the majors, none more often than Woods, who survived a patch of bo-

geys early in his round for an even-par 70 that took him another round closer to a 15th major title. “I know that it takes a bit out of us, but so be it,” Woods said. “Much rather be there than missing cuts or just making the cut. So it’s a wonderful place to be with a chance to win your nation’s open.” Just when this U.S. Open was starting to look like child’s play, a trio of major champions took it back. Furyk rolled in a 40-foot birdie putt from off the third green in the morning for a 69. Woods and Toms, who showed a steady hand with

the putter for a 70, joined him in the afternoon when the conditions were fiery and emotions were frayed. They were the only players to beat par for 36 holes at 1-under 139. And they restored some sanity to a major that for a brief and stunning moment had been taken over by a 17-year-old who only two weeks ago didn’t even win his state high school championship. Beau Hossler went 11 holes without making a bogey, and took the outright lead on one of the toughest holes at Olympic. He got lost in the thick rough and trees

on the brutal front nine, dropping five shots in eight holes for a 73 that left him four shots behind. That wasn’t the only surprise. Defending champion Rory McIlroy missed the cut for the fourth time in his last five tournaments. He set a U.S. Open record last year at Congressional with a 131 through 36 holes. He was 19 shots worse at Olympic, with a 73 giving him a two-day score of 150. “It wasn’t the way I wanted to play,” he said. Please see U.S. OPEN, page 4B

Ex-Armstrong manager denies doping AUSTIN, TEXAS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Johan Bruyneel, the manager behind Lance Armstrongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seven consecutive Tour de France victories, is denying accusations from U.S. officials that he helped run a doping operation for the cyclistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have never participated in any doping activity and I am innocent of all charges,â&#x20AC;? said Bruyneel, a Belgian who is currently manager of the RadioShack-Nissan-Trek team. In a statement posted Friday on his website and Twitter, Bruyneel also noted that federal prosecutors closed a nearly

two-year criminal investigation into allegations of doping by Armstrong and his teams without filing any charges. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It cannot be right that I or anyone else can be pursued from court to court simply because our accusers do not like the decisions made along the way and so attempt to find a court which will get them the result they want,â&#x20AC;? Bruyneel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I shall of course cooperate fully with the investigation, although I have no doubt the end result will be the same as all the other investigations over the years.â&#x20AC;?

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency this week accused Armstrong, Bruyneel and several other associates of being involved in a longstanding doping conspiracy that supplied the champion cyclistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams. Bruyneelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement did not mention Armstrong or the others. USADA is accusing Bruyneel of giving riders or encouraging them to use banned performance-enhancing substances, including the blood-booster EPO, blood transfusions, steroids, human growth hormone and masking agents from 1999-2007. Bruyneel, a longtime mentor

to Armstrong and member of his inner circle, could face a lifetime ban from the sport if found guilty. Armstrong, Bruyneel and the others face a June 22 deadline to file a written response to the USADA charges, the first step in what could be a months-long process, leading to a hearing before an arbitration panel to hear the evidence. According to USADAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s June 12 letter announcing the charges, â&#x20AC;&#x153;numerous ridersâ&#x20AC;? from Bruyneelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams will testify he either gave them performanceenhancing drugs or encouraged them to use them.

COMMENTARY

TCUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s days as underdog are over By Mac Engel Fort Worth Star-Telegram

FORT WORTH, TEXAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; For more than a decade, TCU football coach Gary Patterson has preached and sold that he, his team and their little university embodied all things underdog. When you walk around TCUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus, and see that its annual tuition exceeds $40,000, being an underdog isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so bad. But in the college athletic world, TCU has always been every bit the underdog Patterson said the Frogs were. They were smaller. They were in the conference(s) that was not part of the exclusive club. They had to rely on creativity, luck and perfection in order to be noticed. The Horned Frogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; identity actually was that of an underdog. When TCU officially joins the Big 12 Conference, those days are done. BCS underdogs drink from a gold-lined bowl, and eat prime rib at the private table. TCU will officially be a part of the empire. TCUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation is about to change, and so will its story. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told (San Diego State baseball coach) Tony Gwynn that it almost feels like we are joining the opposite team, and in some sense you are,â&#x20AC;? TCU baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle said last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the natural evolution of things. We have earned that right.â&#x20AC;? Schlossnagleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team made it to an NCAA super regional last weekend before losing to UCLA in LA. Vegas oddsmaker Danny Sheridan recently posted odds on the favorites to win the Big 12 football title in 2012. He has Oklahoma 1-1; Texas is 3-1; TCU and West Virginia are 5-1; Kansas State is 10-1; Oklahoma State and Texas Tech are 25-1; Baylor is 500-1; Iowa State is 1,000-1; Kansas is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a lot.â&#x20AC;? Five-to-1 doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t read like much of an underdog. That smells like a favorite, or a dark horse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a side to this that was exciting because you always felt like you were fighting the uphill battle and had something to prove,â&#x20AC;? Schlossnagle said. They were. And they did. Since 1996 when TCU was kicked to the Western Athletic Conference, the school was just another reject in a clearly delineated college athletics landscape. Then, it became an irrelevant outcast to a solid mid-major. Then, the TCU Frogs became the little school that deserved a shot. Everyone from players to coaches to fans to the media enjoyed this story arc, and bought it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The underdog always plays with more motivation and more passion and there is no doubt that has helped us,â&#x20AC;? TCU senior outfielder Brance Rivera said. How TCUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identity evolves is anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guess. What is not a guess is that TCUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s days of dominating its conference while functioning nationally as the little Frog that could are over.

TEXASâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; JOSH HAMILTON LETS GO OF HIS BAT during Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against Arizona in Arlington, Texas. Hamilton was hospitalized Friday because of an intestinal virus and is expected to miss this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s series against Houston.

Rangersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Hamilton hospitalized, will miss series ARLINGTON, TEXAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Texas Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton was hospitalized early Friday after becoming dehydrated because of an intestinal virus and likely will miss the weekend series against Houston. The Rangers said Hamilton was receiving fluids in the hospital because of a virus going around his family. He was expected to be released by today. Hamilton was replaced in the field late Thursday night in an 11-3 loss to Arizona after telling manager Ron Washington that he had a stomach ache. Before that, the manager had seen nothing to indicate Hamilton wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feeling good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why he came out, he said he had a stomach ache,â&#x20AC;? Washington said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know it was going to lead to him being in the hospital.â&#x20AC;? Outfielder Leonys Martin was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock and in the lineup for the series opener Friday night against the Astros. Martin was batting ninth and playing center field. To make room on the 25-man roster, the AL West-leading Rangers placed right-handed reliever Koji Uehara on the 15-day disabled list. Ueharaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s move is retroactive to Sunday, a day after he strained a back muscle pitching at San Francisco.

Dickeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one-hitter Wednesday against the Rays belatedly changed into a no-hitter. New York manager Terry Collins said the Mets didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really expect to win the appeal but gave it a shot anyway. He said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we had won it, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got another no-hitter. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to wait another 50 years.â&#x20AC;? Two weeks ago, Johan Santana pitched the first no-hitter in the Metsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 51-season history. On Wednesday night, Dickey allowed just an infield single to B.J. Upton in a 9-1 victory over Tampa Bay.

Jones must pay $11 million in damages to two Las Vegas strip club employees injured in 2007 when a lone gunman claiming he was doing Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bidding attacked. A club manager who was left paralyzed and a former bouncer who was wounded stand to collect after the Friday afternoon verdict. Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lawyer, Lisa Rasmussen, says thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no evidence Jones was behind the shooting, which occurred after Jones and several other people were ejected from the club. Rasmussen says she plans to appeal the verdict. The shooter, Arvin Kenti Edwards, demanded $15,000 from Jones for â&#x20AC;&#x153;services renderedâ&#x20AC;? after the shooting.

NFL turns over evidence NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The NFL has turned over some evidence to the four players suspended for the Saints bounty program, but lawyers for the players are seeking more information.

Baker athletics rank as NAIA’s best in state By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Baker University finished as the state’s best NAIA athletic program after fielding some of the nation’s most successful teams in the 2011-2012 academic year. BU finished 31st overall in Wednesday’s final NAIA Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup Standings, an annual ranking of almost 200 schools based on 12 fall, winter and spring sports. Baker’s top-40 finish was its best in school history and higher than the other 11 other NAIA institutions in the state of Kansas. “I think it is a remarkable accomplishment given how many great things have happened in the history of Baker athletics,” athletic director Theresa Yetmar said. “I’m extremely proud of our coaches leading the student athletes. I think it speaks to their hard work and dedication.” The Wildcats were ranked No. 9 in the standings after the fall sports season with men’s and women’s soccer teams and men’s cross country teams making appearances at their respective national competitions. The men’s soccer team advanced to the Final Four and the women’s team made a run into the national tournament for the second straight year with an appearance in the the Elite Eight. The men’s cross country team qualified for the national meet after edging Graceland University at

“

With every team, we showed improvement and made great strides, and our national rankings I think show that.” — Baker president Pat Long the Heart of America Athletic Conference Championship. Baker finished 25th at the NAIA meet and was ranked No. 24 in the country to end the season. The Wildcats’ success continued into the winter sports season as the wrestling and men’s basketball teams competed in their respective national tournaments. Four Wildcat wrestlers earned AllAmerican honors led by Brandon Gebhardt, who finished as the national runner-up in the heavyweight division. Each of the 12 wrestlers who competed at the NAIA Championships won at least one match to help Baker finish 11th at the tournament. The Baker men’s basketball team earned a berth to the Buffalo Funds-NAIA Division I Men’s Basketball National Championship for the first time since 1941. The Wildcats ended the season with a record of 21-12 under former head coach — and Kansas University player — Brett Ballard, who is now an assistant coach under fellow Jayhawk Danny Manning at Tulsa University. Katie Thurbon and Stephanie Nelson, members of the BU women’s track and field team, also

scored points at the NAIA Indoor Track and Field Championships to round out the Wildcats who participated in national competitions during the winter sports season. The two track and field athletes continued their success into spring outdoor season as Thurbon was the national runnerup in the pole vault and Nelson became Baker’s first national champion since 1953 by winning the javelin. Tyler Sloan also scored points at the national meet to help the women’s team to a 12th place finish. On the men’s side, Jeremy Gathright earned All-American status at the outdoor national meet. “I was just incredibly proud,” Baker president Pat Long said. “With every team, we showed improvement and made great strides, and our national rankings I think show that.” The Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup Standings did not include a national championship from the Baker dance team, which won it all for the second consecutive year. “I think any time that you experience the amount of success that (Baker) did, it is not hard to use that as a positive with recruiting future student athletes,” Andrew Patch, assistant director of athletics for events and finance, said. “Any time that you can say that you are one of the best sports programs in the state of Kansas and in (the Heart of America Athletic) conference, that speaks volumes.”

RORY MCILROY, OF NORTHERN IRELAND, WATCHES HIS SHOT during the second round of the U.S. Open Championship golf tournament on Friday at The Olympic Club in San Francisco.

McIlroy’s fall continues By Jim Litke Associated Press Columnist

SAN FRANCISCO — A year after posting the lowest score ever to win the U.S. Open and being anointed the latest “next Tiger Woods,” Rory McIlroy won’t be around for the weekend to defend his title. He shot 77-73 at The Olympic Club and looked like Woods all right — the one who played listlessly en route to missing the cut at Congressional in 2011. And just like Woods a year ago, there was no place to hide afterward. Some 15 minutes after completing his round, McIlroy wolfed down a sandwich hunched over in front of his locker, still wearing his hat and golf shoes. He checked his phone. Next he autographed some posters. Then he packed his clubs. Ten minutes passed, then 15. He changed his shoes and checked his phone again. A day earlier, McIlroy waited out his questioners and said nothing. This time, convinced he was cornered, McIlroy finally turned and walked down the row of lockers to where a handful of reporters waited between him and the clubhouse exit. “Yeah, obviously disappointed,” he said. “It wasn’t the way I wanted to play.” On his final hole Friday, already 9 over with the cut projected at 8, McIlroy hit his tee shot on the par-3 to within 15 feet. Then he ran the birdie try 3 feet past the hole. He looked at that one, took a half-hearted stab and missed it coming back. “I didn’t really take my time over it,” he said. “So if the cut is 9 I won’t be feeling too good on the way home.” It was the punctuation mark on what’s been a whirlwind year, and a humbling six weeks or so of maddeningly inconsistent golf. McIlroy flung a club in anger at Wentworth three weeks ago, missed the cut and then admitted he hadn’t practiced as much or as hard as he should have. For a kid raised in Northern Ireland by working-class parents who juggled two and three jobs at a time so he could chase the dream of becoming a pro, it was quite an admission. “I’ve taken my eye off the ball,” is how McIlroy put it. Small wonder. Beyond the demands of his long-distance romance with tennis star Caroline

COMMENTARY Wozniacki, McIlroy has shed his former manager, adopted a schedule that is heavy on high-paying events and focused on the majors — a la Woods — and light on almost everything else. For a while, the changes seemed like a good fit. McIlroy started the year with a win and nothing worse than a tie for fifth in his first five events. In his next five, he sandwiched three missed cuts in a row between ties for second and seventh. Last week at Memphis encapsulated his season so far: He had a two-stroke lead after four birdies through 11 holes in the final round. Then he skidded to two bogeys and a double at No. 18 after hooking his 3-wood off the tee into the water. For all that, the kid is almost too good and too young to know what a drought feels like. “I just realized that you just got to keep working hard. ... that it doesn’t come easy to you all the time,” he said. “It hasn’t been the greatest run over the last sort of six weeks or whatever it is. But as I said, I still see enough good stuff in the rounds that it does give me hope it’s not very far away.” Most everything else McIlroy said over the next few minutes was how hard Olympic had been set up. “It’s just such a demanding golf course and just punishes the slightest shot that’s off line, or that’s maybe not the right distance, or whatever, and that’s how I feel.” To his credit, he also cut himself off just short of an extended whine. “It’s been set up tough,” he said quietly, “but it still gives you opportunities.” A reporter asked McIlroy whether he would play the Irish Open in two weeks. “Yeah, that’s the plan,” he replied. “Just go back home and start playing some links golf and get ready for those couple weeks.” With that, McIlroy excused himself and headed for the exit with a much better idea of how much dedication it’s going to take to be just half as good as Woods was — and still is — year in and year out, all the while dealing with the smothering attention that good week or bad, never goes away.

Also leaving San Francisco far earlier than anyone expected were Luke Donald, the world’s No. 1 player, Masters champion Bubba Watson and Dustin Johnson, coming off a win last week at the St. Jude Classic. It doesn’t take much at this U.S. Open to swallow up even the best players. When the last group trudged up the hill toward the stately clubhouse at Olympic, the experience at the top of the leaderboard was impossible to ignore. “Whoever wins this golf tournament is going to be a great champion, somebody that’s probably won events before, that can handle the emotions and can handle the adversity in a U.S. Open, and somebody with experience,” Toms said. “At least that’s what I think. You never know. Strange things can happen, but I would think that you would see a lot of that on the leaderboard come late Sunday.” It starts with Woods, who is coming off his second win of the year at the Memorial and looks as strong as ever. Hitting shots both directions, mainly with irons off the tees, he overcame three straight bogeys on his front nine, two of those shots not far off from being easy birdie chances. His only regret was not taking advantage of having a wedge in his hand on the last three holes, all birdie opportunities that became pars. When he regained a share of the lead with Furyk on the 13th with a 4-foot birdie putt, Woods was coming up on a series of holes that allowed

Woodland misses cut by three strokes J-W Staff Reports

SAN FRANCISCO — Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot 77 in the second round of the U.S. O p e n Friday at The Olympic Woodland Club, missing the cut by three players to at least think of making birdie. In a greenside bunker in two on the par-5 16th — shortened to 609 yards Friday — Woods blasted out weakly and missed a 12foot putt. With a mid-iron in his hand in the fairway on the par-5 17th, he went over the green and down a deep slope. Despite a superb pitch to 8 feet, he missed the putt. And with a wedge from the fairway on the 18th, he came up well short and into a bunker, having to settle for par. Pars aren’t bad, though. “This tournament, you’re just plodding along,” Woods said. “This is a different tournament. You have to stay patient, stay present, and you’re just playing for a lot of pars. This is not a tournament where we have to make a bunch of birdies.” Graeme McDowell, the U.S. Open champion two years ago down the coast at Pebble Beach, dropped three shots on his last four holes for a 72. Even so, he was very much in

strokes. The cut was at the two-round total of 148, and Woodland shot 74 and 77 on Thursday and Friday for a total of 151. Woodland had seven bogies, one double bogie, two birdies and eight pars to make up his second-round 77. After starting the day tied for 52nd, Woodland slid to tied for 108th, mainly because of his six-over par front-nine 40. the hunt two shots behind at 141, along with recent LSU alum John Peterson (70), Nicolas Colsaerts of Belgium (69) and Michael Thompson, the first-round leader who followed his opening 66 with a 75. Woods had won eight straight times when he had at least a share of the lead going into the weekend at the majors, a streak that ended at the 2009 PGA Championship when Y.E. Yang chased him down from four shots back. Woods hasn’t seriously contended in the final hour of a major since then. And a stern test waits on the weekend. Asked for a winning score, McDowell deferred to the USGA. “They can have whatever they want,” McDowell said. “If they want 5 over to win, 10 over to win it ... they can hide these pins away. I would have to imagine around level par.” Woods, who played the difficult six-hole opening stretch at 1 under in the opening round, wasn’t so fortunate the second time around.

He brilliantly bounced his tee shot onto the green at the par-3 third to 5 feet for birdie, and the outright lead at 2 under, and he appeared to have everything under control. That didn’t last, though. He pushed his approach into a bunker on the fifth and took bogey. He got a miserable break on the next hole when his second shot was suspended in the thick collar of the bunker, forcing him to grip his wedge on the steel shaft to play his shot, which went through the green for another bogey. And on the short par-4 seventh, which can be reached from the tee, he three-putted from 8 feet for a third straight bogey. On the other side of the course, the cheers of disbelief were for Hossler. The kid rolled in a 6-foot birdie putt on the 520-yard first hole, putting him alone in the lead at 2 under. “Unfortunately,” he said, “I kind of lost it coming in.” It’s wasn’t the pressure. It wasn’t the size of his audience perched along the hills. It wasn’t the sight of his name listed over three major champions. It was The Olympic Club. Hossler dropped a shot on the next hole, though the real trouble came when he pulled his tee shot on the fourth into the hay and made double bogey. Then, he hit into a bunker on the adjacent hole for another bogey, lost another shot on the sixth and only slowed the damage with a chip-in behind the seventh green for birdie. He still gets to sleep in on Saturday with his late tee time, and what 17-year-old doesn’t like that?

Savage six down amateur, pro alike SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Seventeen-year-old Beau Hossler had sole possession of the lead at the U.S. Open on Friday after a birdie on No. 1. Then reality hit for the California amateur on a stretch at The Olympic Club billed as the hardest start in tournament history. He bogeyed No. 2, doubled No. 4 and bogeyed Nos. 5 and 6 to drop off the leaderboard. “It’s just tough to have fun out there,” said 2010 U.S. Open champ Graeme McDowell, who also had bogeys at Nos. 1, 5 and 6 on Friday along with a birdie at No. 3. Sergio Garcia could attest to that. He smashed a microphone on the third tee after his shot came up short on the downhill par 3 and he could be seen pounding another club three holes later. Rickie Fowler maintained his composure. But it wasn’t easy after he took a triple-bogey 7 on No. 1 after driving left into the bushes, then three-putting the tricky green. James Hahn didn’t fare much better, hitting his tee shot 50 yards left, out of bounds, and through a tunnel that leads to a par-3 course. Even many who found the fairway found trouble afterward. “We have heard a lot about (the first six holes) and today I helped with the high stroke average,” quipped Nick Watney, who went bogey-double bogey-bogey on the first three and was 6 over through the first nine Friday. “It’s just difficult. When it’s cold like this, the ball goes about a club shorter, so the shots uphill, like No. 2 and No. 4, play very long. The third hole runs away. I mean it’s just a really difficult stretch. And if you’re a little bit off it seems like at this tournament everything is magnified. “So those six holes definitely demand good golf and if you play them well,

But it can also ruin your day.” Tiger Woods played the first six at 1 under on Thursday, but he was the exception. Combined, there were 350 bogeys and 57 double bogeys or worse on the first six in the opening round, and only 40 birdies. The second round wasn’t much better, with 325 bogeys, 57 doubles or worse and 49 birdies. Even Woods saw Olympic’s front teeth. He was 1 under for the round until his second shot on No. 6 left him with an awkward stance in a greenside bunker — his ball hanging in the rough about a foot above. He punched it 20 feet past the hole up and tried to roll it in from the second cut with a 3-wood but missed for a bogey-5. Garcia, meanwhile, went from anger to shock to anger when his drive on No. 6 clipped a tree just right of the forward tee boxes and dropped straight down into the deep rough. For the longest time he held a fairway metal, then pointed to his caddie how bad the lie was. Finally he opted for a short iron that he slugged out to just short of the fairway bunker, and walked toward

the fairway swinging his club into the ground. His third shot still wasn’t on the green but he sank a 10-foot bogey putt to limit the damage. After two rounds, he played the first six in 5 over — and the other 12 at 1 under to reach the weekend at 4-over 144. It was par for the course. While McDowell called the course firm but fair, he questioned a few hole locations. “I mean ... the pin on No. 1 today ... is it necessary to put this on the side of a slope?” said McDowell, who drove left on No. 1 and had to punch out but salvaged bogey with a 10foot putt. He certainly felt the 520yard hole, which played as a par 5 in 1998, was tough enough already. One competitor suggested it should be a 4 1/2 considering its scoring average — 4.583 on Thursday. On Friday, it wasn’t much easier at 4.526. But No. 6, a 489-yard par 4, had overtaken it as the toughest (4.596) — with as many bogeys as pars (69) and twice as many double bogeys (10) as birdies (5). McDowell would finish the grueling stretch just as he started, with a bogey. His approach was short next to the left bunker, and even with a great

chip, couldn’t get the putt to drop. “My day was equally enjoyable as yesterday,” McDowell said sarcastically, even though he was in contention at 1-over 141. The key was to forget the mistakes, and try to move on. Fowler did the best he could and just made the cut at 8-over 148 thanks to birdies at Nos. 16 and 17 on Friday. “I’ve been playing really well the last few months and had to try to remember that and keep moving forward,” Fowler said. Hahn wouldn’t get that chance, missing the cut at 13-over 153, with three doubles and three bogeys over two rounds in the opening stretch — topped off by what he called a “doublecross left” through the tunnel. “I was 4 over today on those and 4 over yesterday, and I tried to get it all back at once on (No. 7),” said Hahn, who took another double on the 286yard par-4. He wasn’t the only one who discovered No. 7 wasn’t much of a relief. “I don’t know if you ever get a relief,” Matt Kuchar said. “Even (No. 7) can go wrong for you pretty quickly. ... The first six holes are tough, but they continue to be tough out there.”

Royals survive wild finish ST. LOUIS (AP) — Mike Moustakas cut down Tyler Greene at the plate to end the game, capping a wild ninth inning and preserving the Kansas City Royals’ 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night. Greene reached on a two-out infield hit for his third single of the game, stole second and advanced on catcher Bryan Pena’s wild throw. He tried to score on another off-line throw by second baseman Chris Getz, but third baseman Moustakas made a strong throw to nip Greene at home. The crazy finish came after Yadier Molina eased up on what he believed was an infield hit to start the St. Louis ninth. The

catcher belatedly sped up after Alcides Escobar’s diving stop, and the shortstop made a strong throw to first as Molina banged his helmet with his hands. Vin Mazzaro worked six scoreless innings and Jeff Francoeur had two RBIs for Kansas City, which matched its longest winning streak of the season with its fourth consecutive victory. Jarrod Dyson added two hits, a walk and an RBI. Jonathan Broxton worked the ninth for his 16th save in 18 chances and No. 100 for his career. The Royals also won four straight from May 12-15 at the Chicago White Sox and Texas. Carlos Beltran had two hits and stole his 300th base

in the second, becoming BOX SCORE the first switch hitter in major league history with 300 Royals 3, Cardinals 2 home runs and 300 steals.

Brewers 5, Twins 3 MINNEAPOLIS — Martin Maldonado’s two-run, tiebreaking home run in the ninth inning off Matt Capps pushed Milwaukee past Minnesota, and John Axford bounced back from consecutive blown saves to preserve the lead. Corey Hart led off the ninth against Capps (1-4) with a double. With two outs and two strikes, Maldonado sent a fastball into the bullpen. Then Axford pitched a 1-2-3 inning for his 11th save. Ryan Braun ended Francisco Liriano’s no-hit bid

with a one-out, three-run homer in the sixth inning on the left-hander’s 97th pitch after a pair of walks. Milwaukee

A tense, tied series moves to Miami OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Kevin Durant had the ball in his hands and LeBron James in his face. With 10 seconds left in Game 2, the NBA Finals were providing all the theater anyone could ask. Two superstars going head-to-head, the Miami Heat trying to hold off another stirring rally by the Oklahoma City Thunder, television ratings reaching levels last seen when Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal played together. James forced Durant to miss that tying attempt — perhaps getting away with a foul — and the Heat held on for a 100-96 victory on Thursday night that evened the series at one game apiece. And as it shifts to Miami for the next three games, the only thing that seems certain is a tense series that looks to be lengthy. Game 3 is Sunday night, and Heat coach Erik Spoelstra thinks it will look similar to the first two. “This is going to be probably like this every single game, and that’s the beauty of competition at this level, and embracing that competition and seeing what it brings out of you collectively,” Spoelstra said. It’s brought out the best of league MVP James and Durant, the NBA scoring champion. The series hype was built around them and they spent the first two games living up to every ounce of it. James has bounced back from his disappointing 2011 finals by scoring 30 and then 32 points, and even that was only good enough for a split because Durant has been just as good. He followed up his 36-point performance in Game 1 by scoring 32 on Thursday, 16 in the fourth quarter after he scored 17 in the final period of the opener. Yet that was wasted because the Thunder had fallen into a 17-point hole in the first half. The Thunder also spotted Miami a 13-point lead in the first half of Game 1 and have fallen into double-digit holes in three

straight games. Coach Scott Brooks said after Game 2 he wasn’t considering a new starting lineup, even though the Thunder have been more effective with a smaller group on the floor. Instead, he said the only change the Thunder needed was greater intensity from the start. “We didn’t come out with the toughness that we need to come out with. We’re an aggressive team, we’re a physical team,” he said. “Defensive mindset was not where it needs to be, and hopefully we change that going into Game 3.” The slow starts at home could mean trouble for the Thunder in Miami, where they won’t have their raucous crowd to help rattle the Heat. But Oklahoma City has been

Battier said. “We know every game is its own beast. You just have to play disciplined and tough to win a single game in the finals.” Battier has provided surprising offense with 17 points in each game while also taking his turns defending Durant. But it’s James who will likely have that role during the important stretches, such as the crucial moment of Game 2. Durant expects to score no matter who his guarding him. The problem, he said, is the Thunder aren’t paying enough attention to the other end of the floor. “I’ve got to make shots for my team. But I think on the defensive end, we all have to be better, and we can’t really worry about the offensive end,”

good on the road in the postseason, winning twice in Dallas in the first round, taking a game in Los Angeles in the second round and pulling out a Game 5 victory in San Antonio in the Western Conference finals. “These are the two best teams. They’re confident no matter what building they’re in,” James said. “We’re happy now that it’s a 1-1 series and we’re going back to Miami and will take control of the home court. It doesn’t mean that the series has changed. Both teams can win on each other’s floor and both teams are confident.” Ratings through two games are up 11 percent from last year, when it seemed interest in the Heat couldn’t get higher, and Thursday drew the

highest rating for a Game 2 since 2004, when the Lakers lost to Detroit in their last title run with O’Neal and Bryant. The latest game provided a look at the best of what both teams have: James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh all making big plays in the fourth quarter; Sixth Man of the Year James Harden coming off the Thunder bench to keep them in it while Durant sat with foul trouble; Russell Westbrook turning from sloppy to sensational as the game went along. So what’s next? “It’s a long series. After Game 1 there was the hyperbole of, ‘The Heat have no idea what to do with the speed of OKC.’ I have no idea what the story lines will be after Game 2,” Miami forward Shane

Miami also enjoyed a hugely better presence in the paint after being denied access much of Game 1. Points in the paint swung in the Heat’s favor, 48-32. The onus was on Wade entering this game, and he was equal to it. He had shot under 50 percent in his past six playoff games and scored fewer than 20 in five of those, including Game 1 here. Slow starts and lousy first halves had become a tattoo of his postseason. A volume of criticism normally reserved for LeBron fell upon him. “You all need to get off Dwyane, man,” teammate Udonis Haslem had said, scolding media members in his defense. “We didn’t get here without him. Dwyane’s fine. He’s still our guy. Lay off Dwyane.” Noted the Thunder’s Kendrick Perkins — accurately: “The scary thing is he always bounces back.” Adversity’s Team. The Heat has trailed in each of the past three playoff series and then won the next game. But hanging on to win Thursday night after what nearly was a monumental collapse — that might have amounted to the biggest adversity of all to survive.

he said. “We missed shots, but we can’t let it dictate our defense. But I’ve got to stay positive, keep working, and we’re looking forward to a Game 3.” The Heat’s last finals game on their home floor ended with Dallas celebrating a championship after Game 6 last year. They can be the ones partying this time if they take care of all three in Miami. For now, the Heat are only worried about the first one. “We’ve got to figure out a way at home to protect home floor, especially in Game 3, and win it,” Wade said. “If you go up there and lose Game 3, you’ve given them, in a sense, home court right back. We just want to continue to play well at home like we’ve done all season long.”
