THE HOMECOMING BONFIRE IS PREPARED AT KANSAS UNIVERSITY IN 1912, the year of KU’s first homecoming. This year KU will mark the 100th anniversary of the tradition.

s they have for decades, a parade and a football game will lie at the heart of Kansas University’s homecoming celebration this week as it marks its 100th anniversary edition.

But a queen, a bonfire, famous musical or comedy acts and students dressed as hobos? Nowhere to be found.

Those are some of the

former homecoming traditions that didn’t last to see the event’s 100th birthday.

Some met their end amid public controversy, while others faded away more quietly.

One that met its demise more publicly was Hobo Day — something that went beyond the themed dressup day its name suggests.

The old tradition caught the attention of Kevin Armit-

age, then a graduate student pursuing his doctorate in history, as he was helping in 2000 with the launch of the KU History website.

“What initially attracted me was just seeing some photos,” Armitage said.

Images of students from the 1920s and ’30s dressed in tattered and torn clothing, some with knapsacks slung over their shoulders, sparked his historical instincts, he said.

A white Toyota RAV4 SUV driven by 39-year-old Lawrence resident Justin M. Crawford flew through the stoplight and busy intersection at Ninth and Maine streets on the afternoon of Sept. 7, heading south in excess of an estimated 60 mph in a 25 mph zone.

At the same time, Lawrence resident Lin Stearns, 49, and longtime friend Jean Drumm, 67, were heading north, about halfway down the 900 block of Maine Street after a swim at the Robinson Center, when they saw the SUV barreling straight at them.

An accident diagram from the police report shows the SUV driving on the left, and incor- Crawford rect, side of the road when it collided head-on with Drumm’s Buick Century.

After the accident, both vehicles ended up on the grass near the sidewalk, cockeyed and heavily damaged. The front ends of both vehicles were crushed deep into the front seats.

Emergency workers spent 15 minutes extricating Drumm and Crawford from their vehicles.

About a dozen people stood on the sidewalk, grimacing in horror as moans came from the SUV. A witness to the accident approached the trapped Crawford before emergency workers arrived, offering assistance.

Crawford kept saying, “Just kill me,” according to a police report.

Crawford and Drumm were taken to Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., with serious injuries. Stearns, meanwhile, had a broken left ankle.

DRUNKEN DRIVING RECORD A drunken driver’s record — Justin M. Crawford’s legal history: ! Arrested and convicted in 1998 in Topeka for drunken driving. Paid a $562 fine, spent two days in jail and 12 months on probation. ! Arrested in 1999 on suspicion of drunken driving.

Crawford refused an alcohol breath test and paid a $249 fine. ! Convicted in 2001 for drunken driving in Shawnee County. Paid a $1,000 fine and spent a year on probation. ! Caused an accident in 2004 in Topeka but fled the scene. ! Arrested in 2005, which later resulted in his third DUI conviction. Spent three Fairchild, after reading the charges, set Matthews’ bond at $15,000. If Matthews had come up with the bond, or enough to pay to a bail bondsman, he could’ve been back on the road in a matter of hours.

Options The courts do have methods for keeping drivers such as Matthews — and Crawford, if he’s arrested — off the roads before a conviction, said Johnson County District Attorney Steve Howe.

In Johnson County, judges, as a condition of bond, sometimes order defendants in repeat drunken driving cases to wear an alcoholmonitoring device, such as a Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring, or SCRAM, device. The devices, used frequently in probation and parole, attach to an ankle and periodically test the amount of alcohol in someone’s system. Results are then sent to a probation or parole office.

Basically, drink alcohol, and authorities will know.

Drink alcohol while on bond and prohibited to do so, and a judge could order a defendant back to jail and off the streets.

The SCRAM devices are an option for habitual drunken drivers in Douglas County, but they just haven’t been used yet, said Fairchild, the county judge.

“It is one tool we could use,” Fairchild said.

But ordering defendants on bond to wear SCRAM devices poses some resource issues and wouldn’t completely keep habitual drunken drivers off the road, he said.

The Douglas County Community Corrections Department, which monitors probationers, has just 21 of the devices, which cost about $2,000. Those devices are used by the county’s probationers, and a supply for DUI offenders on bond would be limited.

There aren’t enough of the devices, and there are too many habitual drunken drivers revolving through the local court system, Fairchild said.

Fairchild also said the devices wouldn’t necessarily keep someone from driving drunk and causing a serious accident; it’s just that authorities would know someone had been drinking and could revoke bond after the fact.

months in jail, two years on house arrest, and his licence was suspended in 2006. ! Driver’s license was reinstated in 2009. ! If Crawford is convicted for drunken driving again, he would face a minimum $1,750 fine, 90 days to a year in jail, one year suspended license, and required use of an ignition interlock for two years. A conviction would count as his third DUI conviction, even though it would be his fourth, because offenses before 2001 are not counted toward the total.

— Information obtained from court and various state and county records.

The only surefire way to keep drivers with multiple convictions off the road is incarceration, Fairchild said. But even with someone who has 10 or more DUIs, the maximum sentence is one year in jail. That’s where the Legislature needs to step in and make the penalties harsher, Fairchild said.

“We would love to be able to have more teeth,” he said.

Fairchild, however, said the SCRAM devices would make sense in some local cases and could help keep a habitual drunken driver off the roads in the year or so before the case is resolved.

“That may be something we should think about,” he said.

Not the first time As Stearns talks about the September accident that sent her and her longtime friend to the hospital, she has harsh words for Crawford. It wasn’t be the first time Stearns was hit head-on by a drunken driver — in 1981, Stearns spent six weeks in a coma, before waking to a traumatic brain injury and lifelong cognitive impairment, after being hit headon by a drunken driver.

This time around, Stearns broke several bones in one of her legs.

Drumm, meanwhile, spent about a month in the hospital, and is currently at a rehabilitation facility healing from two broken legs.

Legislative measures, budget constraints and the rights of defendants are factors lost on Stearns. She simply wants the roads cleared of drunken drivers.

“Doesn’t he (Crawford) realize how he affects others’ lives?” Stearns asked.

As a high school band in the Maple Leaf Festival Parade made its way west Saturday morning on Baldwin City’s High Street, Brenda Hunt and two friends were marching the other direction.

Hunt’s arms were filled with items purchased at festival crafts booths while her companion, Sue Howard, rolled a piece of luggage filled with merchandise she and friend Daisy Parker had bought.

“Our arms are full, and our bags are full, so we’re going to the car to unload,” Hunt said. “We come every

Hunt and Howard, of Basehor, are joined in the annual festival outing by Parker, of Berryton. Experienced festival-goers, they didn’t intend to let earlymorning shoppers make off with choice items.

“We got here at 9 (a.m.)

when they opened,” Hunt said. “We’re not done yet.”

Early arriving booth browsers were a trend of the festival this year, said Donita Turk, a veteran of the Baldwin City Annunciation Catholic Church food booth at the prime festival site of Eighth and High streets.

While state and county election workers across the country are gearing up for the official election Nov. 6, organizers of the Douglas County Kids Voting USA project are almost set to go.

Nearly 10,000 ballots have been printed in anticipation of a heavy turnout. They even have a large supply of ballot boxes that have been retired by the Douglas County clerk’s office.

What they still need, though, are about 300 volunteers to staff the 48 polling places that will be used on Election Day. “To make Kids Voting work in a community takes far more than just teachers and Please see KIDS VOTING, page 4A

“We had people wanting food at 9 a.m.,” she said.

“There were a lot of people out at 9. We started our grill way early.”

Shortly before noon at the Kappa Sigma food booth at Eighth and High streets, Mary Spotz, of Rantoul, was fulfilling a Maple Leaf obligation, purchasing four turkey legs to take back to her husband.

“We used to live in Baldwin,” she said. “Every year, I have to get him turkey legs.”

Spotz smartly came to the booth while a crowd four rows deep watched the parade at it turned north on Sixth Street from High Street. Thirty minutes later, she would have had to wait in line at least 10 minutes to order food.

organization’s website, Kids Voting has a positive, long-term effect on civic participation among students. The organization cites independent research showing students exposed to the curriculum pay more attention to the news, engage in more discussion about civic affairs with their family and friends, and are more likely to get involved in political activity or volunteer in their community.

Lawrence was among the first pilot sites when the Kids Voting USA project began in 1992. In 2000, the local project expanded to include Eudora, and in 2004 it added the Baldwin City area. The project went countywide in 2006, adding the rural townships outside of the incorporated cities.

Adults, as well as high school juniors and seniors, can volunteer as poll workers for the Kids Voting balloting. Shifts on Election Day are about two and a half hours long, running from 6:45 a.m. to 9 a.m., 2:45 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. to 7:45 p.m.

Volunteers will also go through a training session at either 4 p.m. or 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 1, at the Kids Voting headquarters on the second floor of the Riverfront Plaza, Sixth and New Hampshire streets.

Safety experts: Graduated licenses working WICHITA (AP) — Safety experts say a graduated driver’s license law that went into effect in 2010 and increased use of seat belts have helped reduce accidents involving teenagers in Kansas.

The Wichita Eagle reports state transportation records show the number of accidents involving drivers 14 through 16 years old dropped from more than 5,000 in 2004 and 2005 to fewer than 3,000 last

year.

The graduated license law requires all teen drivers to hold a learner’s permit for 12 months before obtaining a restricted or unrestricted license. Teen drivers are prohibited from using cellphones for the first six months after getting a full license, having more than one nonsibling minor passenger and driving after 9 p.m. except to and from work or school.

a guided tour of East Lawrence’s historical landmarks. Pierron said that, while the rich history of west Lawrence is wellappreciated, people sometimes forget that the east side of town has its own unique set of traditions.

“That’s where the working class of the city lived, since the 1850s,” Pierron said. “Just socially, it’s got a great history from the first days of the city.”

Pierron gave the first of those tours Saturday afternoon, leading a group of 10 curious cyclists on a three-hour tour from the Langston Hughes home at 731 New York to the Free State Brewery bottling plant at 1927 Moodie Road.

Along the way, the tour stopped at the Shalor Eldridge House at 945 Rhode Island, where the Eldridge family lived while the town was being built in the 1850s. Back then, East Lawrence had a bad reputation.

The original settlers of Lawrence, many of them from New England, found pro-slavery camps here when they arrived and moved temporarily upriver until they persuaded the squatters to leave. The New Englanders considered much of what is now East Lawrence, downriver from the center of town, to be contaminated by “miasmas,” or unhealthy air emanating from soggy riverbanks.

The tour also visited the Turnhalle building at 900 Rhode Island. Turnhalle, built by German immigrants in 1869, served for decades as a community hall for physical education and gymnastics during the day and dancing, drinking and playing

Dennis Brown, president of the Lawrence Preservation Alliance, was on hand Saturday to talk about restoring the building, which has fallen into disrepair. The LPA bought the building last month and plans to rehabilitate it for commercial use. On Saturday, he pointed out original elements still remaining, including the stage and balcony.

“The roof structure is just a work of art,” he said.

On New York Street, the group saw one of the sites where Langston Hughes lived — the house no longer remains — around the turn of the century and the St. Luke African Methodist Episcopal Church at 900 New York, where he attended services with his aunt and uncle. Pierron took a moment to talk about the style of segregation that existed in Lawrence then and for decades after. As the African-American community in East Lawrence grew in the 20th century, the dormitories at Kansas University were still off limits

Pete Williams, an East Lawrence resident, went on the tour to learn a little more about his neighborhood. He said was surprised to learn that East Lawrence was once home to 43 grocery stores.

“I think I already enjoyed the working-class flavor of it,” he said.

“That’s still there to this day.”

East Lawrence’s industrial past is still visible around the Poehler Loft Apartments, at 619 E. Eighth St. The apartments, one of the last stops on the tour, were built in what was once a grocer’s warehouse. In the 19th century, the city invested heavily in railroad infrastructure and industry in this part of East Lawrence, only to see those efforts ruined by the recession of 1873. Where industry failed, prostitution and illegal liquor followed.

“The seedy enterprises that flourish in the industrial areas really took over,” Pierron said.

The bike trip ended Saturday at Free State Brewery’s bottling plant, where the cyclists toured the new operations of Kansas’ first legal brewery. The brewer in charge offered a glass of beer to the thirsty cyclists at the end of the tour.

History CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Armitage, now an associate professor at Miami University of Ohio, dug through old newspapers in the University Archives at Spencer Research Library. He found that the event’s origins went back to the 1890s, when usedclothes buyers would come to campus for an annual convention. Students in need of beer money would come to sell their old duds, and eventually some decided to wear some of those clothes as part of a celebration.

By the 1920s, the Hobo Day became part of the annual homecoming festivities and included a massive pep rally for which afternoon classes were canceled. It was characterized by a wild fervor that Armitage said should change the mind of anyone who thinks rowdiness among college students is a purely modern-day phenomenon.

“There may be differences, but there was plenty of raucousness and too much drinking, etc., back in the good old days, as well,” Armitage said.

During one Hobo Day, students broke into grocery trucks and began throwing food at each other, leading to a fistfight between one “hobo” student and a professor. A few years later, a group of law students sported formal wear on Hobo Day in defiance of the tradition, leading to another brawl.

“Things were a little wilder back then in some respects,” said a laughing Jennifer Sanner, senior vice president for communications for the KU Alumni Association.

The University Senate ended Hobo Day in 1939, a move that the University Daily Kansan decried as “the first step toward a desecration of the sanctity of tradition.”

A volatile year Other traditions did continue, though another met its end in 1970: the annual crowning of a homecoming queen.

Candice Heavin Benn, a 1970 graduate who now lives in San Diego, was one of the three queen candidates in 1969, the final year KU observed the tradition.

Kansas House approved massive tax cuts, which included an amendment by state Rep. Jana Goodman, R-Leavenworth, to remove the state sales tax from food.

A GREEK HOUSE DISPLAYS yard decorations before the Kansas University homecoming game in 1973. The old yard displays inspired this year's Homecoming Steering Committee to create the new Glow KU light-decoration contest. BELOW: KU Students attend the homecoming dance in 1956.

When recalling the experience, she had to start with the tension and unrest that characterized the KU campus that school year, including the burning of the Kansas Union in April 1970.

“It was a very volatile year,” Benn said.

Protests against the Vietnam War and pushing for civil rights dotted the campus, and the homecoming queen tradition was a focus — the Black Student Union pointed out that a black woman had never even been nominated to be queen.

That led to a parallel royalty process, during which the Black Student Union named its own queen. As the homecoming queen candidates rode in a convertible around Memorial Stadium at halftime of the football game, another car carried the BSU candidates — a segregated scene that Benn said is hard to fathom now, more than 40 years later.

“It’s mind-boggling to me that that even took place,” Benn said.

At that point, Benn said, queen candidates were nominated by residence halls and sororities — she represented McCollum Hall. A committee of faculty interviewed the candidates and narrowed them to a group of three before announcing a winner at the football game.

Despite the contro-

ability companies, quickly jettisoned the proposal to remove the sales tax on food, saying it was too expensive — about $300 million — to be added to the other cuts.

Brownback has said the tax cuts he signed into law will expand the economy, create jobs and increase revenue to the state. But critics say the cuts will rob needed revenue from schools and critical social services while benefiting wealthy business owners.

State Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, said she supports getting rid of the food sales tax but

versy, the traditional pageantry continued, including publicity photo shoots in Wichita, the Kansas City area and elsewhere.

“We essentially did just two weeks of touring around the state,” Benn said.

A friend of hers requested a special leave from the Air Force Academy in Colorado to serve as her escort at the game.

According to a 1994 Kansas Alumni article on the subject, senior Janet Merrick was crowned the final homecoming queen.

The following year, the homecoming committee announced the end of the homecoming queen, saying in a statement: “It seems inappropriate in a multicultural environment such as a university to select one or a group of young women to represent that community.”

Traditions long gone A number of other traditions have faded in and out of homecoming over the years, according to University Archives research conducted by this year’s Homecoming Steering Committee during preparations for the centennial celebration.

Even the parade was replaced by a talent show for a few years, starting in 1948, in order to cut costs.

A bonfire and a homecoming dance met their end at some point.

Sanner said she’ll sometimes hear visiting alumni recall the big-name musical and comedy guests who would perform during homecoming, often in Allen Fieldhouse.

Performers in the Fieldhouse included Louis Armstrong in 1967; Sonny and Cher in 1973; the

added the difficulty would be replacing those funds at the state and local level on top of Brownback’s tax cuts.

According to the Federation of Tax Administrators, 45 states have a sales tax, and 31 exempt groceries from the tax.

Of the remaining states, only seven subject food to the full general sales tax rate, and that includes Kansas, Alabama, Hawaii, Idaho, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and South Dakota.

Kansas’ 6.3 cents-perdollar sales tax is the second highest among those, trailing only Mississippi at

Beach Boys in 1977; and Bob Hope twice, in 1971 and 1982.

Sanner guessed that the year-round performancearts happenings around campus had made the homecoming performances less of a focus.

“We didn’t have the Lied Center,” Sanner said.

“We didn’t have the opportunities that we have now for lectures and entertainers and concerts.”

The cost of A-list performers may have risen since those days, as well, she noted.

In 2004, KU brought comedian Bill Cosby to the Fieldhouse for a homecoming performance, with officials citing a desire to return to the bigticket performances of the past. The total cost of the event was about $150,000, though officials said in a Journal-World story that ticket sales allowed the university to break even.

Today’s KU homecoming is marked by plentiful events throughout the week designed to get lots of people involved, Sanner said, from students to visiting alumni to people around Lawrence.

In 1999, the Kansan reported that involvement in homecoming was at a record low, and only two universitywide events were on the calendar: the parade and football game.

A few years thereafter, the Alumni Association began to oversee homecoming — the latest in a number of groups to lead the events, Sanner said. This year’s schedule calls for about four to five events each day, from today through Saturday.

“My sense is that there’s much more variety and there are many more activities that engage students from all different walks, all different areas of campus,” Sanner said.

One old tradition is making a comeback this year — a pep rally, which will follow the parade Friday evening at the Adams Alumni Center on campus.

Homecoming committee chairman Matt Araiza said he hoped that tradition would stay in place for many years to come.

But even if it doesn’t, if history is any guide, another tradition will step up to replace it.

White House ready to meet 1-on-1 with Iran

By Matthew Daly Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The White House says it is prepared to talk one-onone with Iran to find a diplomatic settlement to the impasse over Tehran’s reported pursuit of nuclear weapons, but there’s no agreement now to meet.

National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor said Saturday that President Barack Obama has made clear that he will prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon and will do whatever’s necessary to prevent that from happening. Vietor said Iran must come in line with its obligations, or else faced increased pressure.

“The onus is on the Iranians to do so, otherwise they will continue to face crippling sanctions and increased pressure,” Vietor said in a statement. He noted that efforts to get Iran back to the table with the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council and Germany — the socalled “P5+1” — continue.

Despite unprecedented global penalties, Iran’s nuclear program is advancing as it continues to defy international pressure, including four rounds of sanctions from the U.N. Security Council, to prove that its atomic intentions are peaceful.

Iran has been a recurring issue in the presidential election campaign and Vietor’s statement was released shortly after The New York Times reported Saturday that the U.S. and Iran have agreed in principle for the first time to negotiations. The paper said Iran has insisted the talks wait until after the Nov. 6 election.

Vietor, however, denied that any such agreement had been reached.

“It’s not true that the United States and Iran have agreed to one-on-one talks or any meeting after the American elections,” he said. We continue to work with the P5+1 on a diplomatic solution and have said from the outset that we that we would be prepared to meet bilaterally.”

Obama and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will meet Monday night in a debate focusing on foreign policy and Iran’s nuclear ambitions will likely be a topic. Obama has said he’ll prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. He hopes sanctions alongside negotiations can get Iran to halt uranium enrichment. But the strategy, which began during President George W. Bush’s administration, hasn’t worked yet. Obama holds out the threat of military action as a last resort. Romney has accused Obama of being weak on Iran and says the U.S. needs to present a greater military threat.

Despite unprecedented global penalties, Iran’s nu-

Romney ups criticism of Obama’s second-term plans

By Jim Kuhnhenn and Kasie Hunt Associated Press

DELRAY BEACH, FLA. — Heading into the campaign’s final weeks, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is upping his criticism of President B a r a c k Obama’s plans for a second term, acRomney cusing the Democrat of failing to tell Americans what he would do with four more years. The O b a m a Obama campaign is aggressively disputing the notion, claiming it’s Romney who hasn’t provided specific details to voters.

At campaign events, in a new ad and fundraising appeal out Saturday, Romney is setting up the closing weeks as a choice between what he says is a “small” campaign that’s offering little new policy and his own ambitious plan to fundamentally change America’s tax code and entitlement programs.

The new Romney ad criticizes the president’s policies on debt, health care, taxes, energy and Medicare, arguing that Obama is simply offering more of the same.

The campaign did not say where the spot would air.

The fundraising appeal hits Obama for raising taxes and increasing the debt by $5.5 trillion, repeating the lack-of-agenda criticism.

“Although President Obama won’t lay out his plan for a second term, we already know what it will be — a repeat of the last four years. We can’t afford four more years of crushing debt and wasteful spending,” Romney says in the letter, adding he has a clear plan to put America on a path to prosperity.

Both Obama and Romney retreated from the campaign trail Saturday to bone up on foreign policy, leaving the work of courting voters to their running mates.

Vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan on Saturday continued the noagenda theme against Obama at campaign stops near Pittsburgh and in Belmont, Ohio.

“He’s not even telling you what he plans on doing,” Ryan told a rainsoaked crowd of about 1,100 people at a campground in coal-rich eastern Ohio.

Obama’s campaign disputes the notion that the president hasn’t outlined a detailed second-term agenda, pointing to his calls for immigration reform, ending tax breaks for upper income earners, fully implementing his health care overhaul and ending the war in Afghanistan.

In a statement sent after Romney’s Friday night event, Obama campaign spokesman Danny Kanner ticked through a series of policy items, calling them “just part of President Obama’s agenda for a second term.”

clear program is advancing as it continues to defy international pressure, including four rounds of sanctions from the U.N. Security Council, to prove that its atomic intentions are peaceful.

Those sanctions, coupled with tough measures imposed by the United States and European nations are taking their toll, particularly on Iran’s economy. Iranian authorities have in recent weeks been forced to quell protests over the plummeting value of the country’s currency, the rial. The rial lost nearly 40 percent of its value against the U.S. dollar in a week in early October, but has since slightly rebounded.

U.S. officials say they are hopeful that pressure from the sanctions may be pushing Iran’s leaders toward concessions, including direct talks with the United States. But several said on Saturday that they did not believe such discussions would happen any time soon.

Narrow focus Before committing to a huge school bond issue, the Lawrence school board needs to at least consider options that include consolidating schools.

T

he Lawrence school district already has staged its first two “prebond issue planning” meetings in preparation for seeking what one board member estimated might be a $90 million to $100 million bond issue.

According to the district’s website that announced 16 such meetings, the Lawrence school board has decided to put the bond question on the April 2, 2013, ballot “Following an elementary facilities study and acting upon recommendations of two community task forces…”

Unfortunately, the path the school board appears to be following really doesn’t conform with the recommendations of those two community task forces. The first task force, the Lawrence Elementary School Facility Vision Task Force, clearly recommended in February 2011 that one elementary school, Wakarusa Valley, be closed immediately and that the district move toward consolidating six other elementary schools into three or four buildings within three to five years. The second task force was the Central and East Lawrence Elementary School Consolidation Working Group.

Even though that group was made up almost entirely of representatives of the six schools being considered for consolidation, nearly half of its members concluded in February 2012 that closing schools was a valid option and urged the board to develop a long-term vision to address English as a Second Language programs, school boundaries and facility upgrades.

Why, then, is the school district now holding meetings that are focused only on upgrades for existing buildings with no consideration of a long-term strategy that includes consolidating schools?

Gould Evans Associates was hired by the district to survey district buildings, paying special attention to the needs of older elementary schools in central and East Lawrence — the same schools that at one time were being considered for consolidation. Apparently the design firm has been told only to look at upgrades, not any plans for consolidation.

During a meeting last week at Pinckney School, a Gould Evans representative noted that the school doesn’t have enough electrical outlets to support computers and other technology that now are part of many classrooms. A neighborhood resident also raised another valid issue: “Having a 4,000-square-foot library is awesome,” he said, “but we’re barely able to put a librarian into them.”

These are two issues that many local residents, even some with children in elementary school, might think would be better addressed by building new schools rather than pouring more money into older buildings. New buildings could be built to support new technology needs, and it’s easier to justify staff, like librarians, for newer elementary schools that serve two or three times as many students as some of the district’s older buildings.

The point is, before committing to a huge bond issue focused almost exclusively on fixing up old elementary schools, both the school board and local voters deserve an opportunity to see how that money could be spent — perhaps better spent — on buildings that address the district’s future needs.

U.S. needs dose of financial reality WASHINGTON — Elections supposedly prevent convulsions, serving as safety valves that vent social pressures and enable course corrections. November’s election will either be a prelude to a convulsion or the beginning of a turn away from one.

America’s public-policy dysfunction exists not because democracy isn’t working but because it is. Both parties are sensitive market mechanisms, measuring more than shaping voters’ preferences. The electoral system is a seismograph recording every tremor of public appetite. Today, the differences that divide the public are exceeded by the contradictions within the public’s mind.

America’s bold premise is the possibility of dignified self-government — people making reasonable choices about restrained appetites.

But three decades ago, Harvard political scientist Samuel Huntington postulated that America suffers regularly recurring political convulsions because the gap between the premise and reality becomes too wide to ignore.

Now Michael Greve, a constitutional scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, argues: “We like to tell ourselves that all our constitutional stories must have a happy ending.” The Founders’ foremost problem, Greve says, was debt. To establish the nation’s credibility, they needed to replace the Articles of Confederation with the Constitution. “We,” Greve says, “merely have to return to it, if we can.” He

George Will

“

America’s public-policy dysfunction exists not because democracy isn’t working but because it is.” wonders whether we can.

The official national debt of $16 trillion (growing $4 billion a day), plus what the government owes its various trust funds, is more than 100 percent of GDP. Ninety percent is where economic anemia seems to deepen. States’ debts are about $3 trillion and their unfunded pension liabilities probably are another $4 trillion. “Debts of this magnitude,” Greve says, “will not be paid.”

Barack Obama’s risible solution is to add 4.6 points to the tax rate for less than 3 percent of Americans. Some conservatives have the audacity of hope — expecting 5 percent economic growth (the post-1945 average: 2.9 percent) and planning to continue financing the debt by borrowing at negative interest rates. Of our long slide into financial decrepitude, Greve says: “The rate of de-

terioration does not correlate in any obvious way with political control over the presidency and Congress.”

The housing debacle was not the result of “a spontaneous outbreak of private irresponsibility.” Public institutions and policies provided occasions and incentives for the exercise of private vices.

Washington pays up to 80 percent of state Medicaid expenses, so states’ citizens demand more Medicaid services. Although the elderly consider Social Security and Medicare benefits earned, Greve says: “Most retirees could not have earned their expected payment streams if they had worked two or three jobs.”

“Our politics,” says Greve, “aims at inspiration on the cheap.” We should reduce government’s complicity in illusions by, for example, sending retirees “a statement showing the estimated present value of their old-age benefits; their lifetime earnings and contributions; and the earnings and contributions that it would have taken to ‘earn’ those benefits. We might then ask them who precisely should earn and remit the missing millions and in what sense it would be ‘unfair’ to modify the empty promises.”

Rash promises were made, Greve says, “in an era of prosperity, when and because we thought we could afford them.” Now they “are far too entrenched to be dislodged in the course of ordinary politics.” Even granting Mitt Romney’s embrace of

something like his running mate’s reforms, this year’s politics are terribly ordinary.

Although consensus is supposedly elusive, it actually is the problem. “Our operative consensus,” says Greve, “is to have a big transfer state, and not pay for it.”

Democracy is representative government, which is the problem. Democracy represents the public’s preferences, which are mutable, but also represents human nature, which is constant.

People flinch from confronting difficult problems until driven to by necessity’s lash.

The Claremont Institute’s William Voegeli, commenting on Greve and the dubious postulate of continuous 5 percent growth, says: “There’s good reason to fear that if the economy builds a 5 percent levee the polity will just come up with a 6 percent flood. We humans adroitly use scant and equivocal evidence to convince ourselves that the most congenial interpretation of events is also the most plausible and durable.”

Writing in 1830, Thomas Babington Macaulay asked, “On what principle is it that, when we see nothing but improvement behind us, we are to expect nothing but deterioration before us?” Greve’s gloomy answer is: Because we actually see behind us protracted abandonment of the Founders’ flinty realism about the need to limit government because of the limitations of the people.

Happy gesture To the editor: An amazing experience happened to me Wednesday! After a problem-filled day, I went to Dillons on 23rd Street. I saw a couple picking out pumpkins for Halloween. We discussed the holiday and how beautiful the pumpkins were this year. When I came out of Dillons, to my surprise there was a pumpkin by my car. The note said “Happy Halloween! Have a pumpkin on us!”

You made my day. You put a smile on my face and in my heart. It is a wonderful world, when complete strangers reach out to make someone’s day special. Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I hope this note reaches you.

Renter help To the editor: Housing and Credit Counseling, Inc. (HCCI) staff was sorry to read the article Oct. 13 about the city condemning Court 26 Apartments, causing 13 renters to be evicted. The city had no choice once code enforcement officers determined the extent of neglect by the landlord. But renters always have a choice. Since 1972, HCCI has been counseling renters, landlords and property managers about their rights and responsibilities as defined by the Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, Fair Housing law, and city code. HCCI’s Rental Housing Counseling service is free for both renters and landlords and is sponsored in part by grants to HCCI from the City of Lawrence, HUD, and private donations.

Extensive free information is available at www.hcci-ks.org. The primary complaint to HCCI by renters is that some landlords do not maintain property. Renters should take appropriate action when maintenance issues such as doors and windows that cannot be properly locked cause safety concerns or when health is jeopardized by water damage or inadequate heating. Appropriate action begins with appropriate communication between tenants and landlords.

HCCI counsels renters to check their written lease agreement first. When landlords use a lease, they have typically included clauses from Kansas law and should be held accountable for the safety of their units based on the law.

Forms to address maintenance issues are available at no charge to renters on the HCCI website. A booklet titled Commonly Asked Questions by Tenants and Landlords is available free from HCCI. Robert L. Mackey, president/CEO, Housing and Credit Counseling, Inc.

Individual rights To the editor: After listening to the vice president during the debate, I thought I may have heard a couple themes of his that he has touched on in the past. In 2008 Mr. Biden said: “For too long in this society we have celebrated unrestrained individualism over the common community.”

I found some more quotes that reflect this reasoning from other politicians, such as this one from Hillary Clinton back in 2003: “We must stop thinking of

the individual and start thinking about what is best for society.”

I found another quote that’s quite a bit older, but similar nonetheless: “There is the great, silent, continuous struggle: the struggle between the State and the Individual; between the State, which demands, and the individual, who attempts to evade such demands.”

People should look up the author of that last one for themselves.

Had I been the moderator of the VP debate, I would have asked Mr. Biden whether or not he thinks the concept of individualism, particularly that of individual liberty, can co-exist with the “spread the wealth around” doctrine he and Mr. Obama espouses. After all, during the Democratic Convention we saw the video which said “government is the only thing we all belong to.” I think this is the “common community” Mr. Biden spoke of.

Are we merely servants to the “common community,” to the government we “belong to,” or are we independent beings with our own lives and individual liberties who have an inalienable right to exist for our own sake?

OU lowers boom OKLAHOMA 52, KANSAS 7

KANSAS CORNERBACK JACOREY SHEPHERD (25) LOOKS UP as a touchdown pass comes down to Oklahoma receiver Kenny Stills during the first quarter. OU rolled over the Jayhawks, 52-7, on Saturday in Norman, Okla.

Two-QB plan futile; KU stomped again

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

NORMAN, OKLA. — If an observer had to pick one series to recap the failed experiment that was Kansas University’s two-quarterback approach Saturday night against No. 10 Oklahoma,

the only option came late in the first quarter of the Sooners’ 52-7 domination of the Jayhawks at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

Trailing 10-0, KU was gifted with early life after OU’s Justin Brown fumbled a punt around his own 10-yard line

with 1:46 left in the first quarter. Credit Josh Ford with the hit, Victor Simmons with the recovery and KU quarterbacks Michael Cummings and Dayne Crist for messing up the golden opportunity.

Although Cummings, a red-shirt freshman and the near-hero of last week’s

close-call loss to Oklahoma State, started and played fairly well early on, both guys were to blame for blowing KU’s best chance to stay in the game.

On first down, Crist threw badly behind a wide-open Tre’ Parmalee in the flat on what looked to be an easy

touchdown. On came Cummings.

On second down, Cummings lobbed an ill-advised pass to Kale Pick into triplecoverage.

Had it not been for a solid defensive play by Pick, the Please see KANSAS, page 7B

KANSAS QUARTERBACK MICHAEL CUMMINGS LOOKS for a target against Oklahoma.

NORMAN, OKLA. — It takes quite awhile for a man who weighs 309 pounds to pick up a football and run 45 yards with it, which only served to prolong the pain of everyone on the opposite sideline watching the play that ended an unforgettable mini-series featuring Charlie Weis and Dayne Crist.

The two Notre Dame castoffs, brought to Lawrence to restore a football winner built by Mark Mangino and Todd Reesing and disman-

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

tled by Turner Gill, reached a low point Saturday when Oklahoma defensive tackle Casey Walker chugged almost half a football field

with the latest Crist turnover, this one a fumble.

The circus music started playing when KU recovered a fumbled punt at the OU 11 late in the first quarter.

First mistake: Weis sent Crist into the game instead of Michael Cummings, who had been performing better.

Ah, but it appeared Weis knew what he was doing when he called a masterful play on which Tre’ Parmalee, at various stages of the play, went into motion,

swung around Crist for a fake reverse handoff and ran out into the left flat, where he was all alone, a touchdown waiting to happen.

Crist had practiced that play. Cummings had not.

Edward Scissorhands could have led a pass to Parmalee that would have given him a walk-in touchdown.

Not Crist. He threw it so far behind the receiver that Parmalee fell down catching it.

Short-handed FSHS settles for second at state

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

FREE STATE’S ANNIE SODERBERG COMPETES ON THE BALANCE BEAM during the state gymnastics meet on Saturday at Lawrence High. FSHS placed second overall.

Free State High senior Jackie Zaitz spent all Saturday at Lawrence High wearing a walking boot that supported her right ankle.

Instead of showing off her all-around skills at the state gymnastics meet, she jotted down scores, walked around gingerly and watched her Firebirds teammates chase a second consecutive state title without her.

Following an exceptional floor exercise by FSHS to close the day, Zaitz couldn’t hide her emotions anymore.

Tears sneaked out of her eyes as she hugged her teammates. The proud leader of the team wished she could have contributed.

Despite her absence, Free

State posted its best team score of the season, 104.925.

However, it wasn’t enough to top 2012 state champion Olathe East (106.775), led by vault, beam, floor and all around individual champion Allison Meads.

The Firebirds, under firstyear coach Jessica McMurray, finished as runners-up a year after winning state with Zaitz in the lineup.

Said sophomore Grace Bartle (fourth in all around): “I don’t think we ever fully got over it (Zaitz’s injury), which is why we got second.”

The Firebirds might not have finished even that high had they not closed the day with a dominating floor exercise. Bartle (9.35) took second, sophomore Carrie Howland (9.3) earned third

and senior Annie Soderberg (9.1) was fifth.

It came immediately following another Free State injury. Senior Brooke Leslie hurt her left knee in warmups before the floor exercise. That meant junior Hannah Moran had to step in to replace Leslie at the last minute. Showing no signs of unpreparedness, Moran opened Free State’s final show with 8.475, one of her best routines of the year.

Soderberg said Moran gave the Firebirds the momentum they needed, considering they had just had a rough outing on the beam, scoring only 24.525.

“She hit everything that we planned to hit and stuck her tumbling pass, which Please see GYMNASTICS, page 3B

Sporting K.C., New York draw, 0-0 HARRISON, N.J. (AP) — The Red Bulls played a 0-0 tie with Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night, clinching a playoff berth for New York and the Supporters’ Shield for San Jose as the team with the best record in Major League Soccer.

New York (15-9-9), which never has won an MLS title, clinched a spot in the 10-team

playoffs as Columbus lost, 3-2, at D.C. United. San Jose earned homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. The Earthquakes also had the best record in 2005, when they were knocked out in the quarterfinals.

Kansas City (17-7-9) extended its unbeaten streak to 11 games.

Before 25,219, a record crowd at three-season-old Red Bull

Arena, New York pressed the defensive-minded visitors.

KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen, who got his 15th shutout, made a diving save on Dax McCarty’s 20yard, left-footed shot in the 23rd minute, and Kenny Cooper sent the rebound over the crossbar.

Nielsen deflected Cooper’s rising shot over the bar in the 41st minute, then raised a hand

in the 65th to knock down a 12-yard angled shot by Thierry Henry, then had to prevent an own goal when the ball bounced off a defender. Nielsen made a diving save on McCarty’s 17yard volley in the 88th.

New York’s Luis Robles had stopped a header by Kei Kamara at the far post in the 86th minute.

Typewriters. Pay phones. Libraries. Board games. Spelling and grammar. Conversation.

Drive-in movie theaters. Love letters. Umpires.

What do they have in common? Yes, sad but true, they are becoming obsolete. In our 21st-century society, you’re either online or off the grid. We communicate in shorthand to accommodate short attention spans. We are Twittering, texting, Wii-ing, Wi-Fi-dependent, iPod-obsessed, YouTubed, LOL fools. Facebook has replaced the idea of reading a real book.

In an environment where everything is a click away, Major League Baseball is seen as old-fashioned, low-tech and not cool. Our “National Pastime� is just that. Past its time.

While the taut playoffs have been a wonderful testament to the game, the blown calls have accentuated its archaic qualities. Umpires are human beings with human eyes but we have little tolerance for human error when there are modern alternatives to correct mistakes. Relying on umpires instead of video review is like using Wite-Out instead of the delete button.

The people who officiate sports events should be unsung heroes. What they do, under withering pressure and with incredible accuracy, is make instantaneous decisions in the middle of super-fast action. But their jobs have changed. Not only can fans abuse officials as “idiotic,� but they can back it up by pointing to the arena’s Jumbotron screen, where the gaffe is replayed over and over, from different angles, zooming in. The ref didn’t have the benefit of slow motion, but fans do.

Officials are undermined by TV coverage. The fan at home sees graphic elements, including the ball and strike tracker over home plate, plus replays of close calls at the bases.

Baseball is concerned about extending games that are already too long, which has occurred in football. But a replay review in baseball would take less time than arguments between managers and umpires.

It’s time for baseball to expand its use of instant replay, now applied on disputed home run calls and in 2013 to be applied to close fair or foul calls, trap or catch calls and fan interference calls. Instant replay should be further utilized, but not for ball and strike calls.

The NFL, NBA and NHL (not to mention the Little League World Series) — rely on instant replay. Soccer needs to eliminate bad calls at the goal line. John McEnroe would never have become McBrat in modern-day tennis because he wouldn’t have pointed to the ball mark on the court and screamed, “You can’t be serious!� to Hawkeye. Machines can’t be insulted.

Jim Leyland is opposed to more technological interruptions. He likes the “human element� of sports. Most of us do.

Controversy is fun. But with replays replaying in our faces, it seems backward to let mistakes go uncorrected. Give umpires another tool. Better that than a robot behind home plate, whirring: “Strike 3. CYA.�

RICKY STENHOUSE JR., LEFT, CELEBRATES IN VICTORY LANE after winning the Nationwide series race Saturday at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan.

Stenhouse claims Nationwide victory at K.C. KANSAS CITY, KAN. — Ricky Stenhouse Jr. rallied from two laps down at Kansas Speedway to salvage his points day.

Then he stole a win, as well.

Stenhouse, the defending Nationwide Series champion, lucked into his series-leading sixth win of the season Saturday when leader Kyle Busch ran out gas heading into the final turn. A late caution extended the race by six laps, and it stretched the fuel tanks of several cars at the front of the field.

Not Stenhouse, though. Because he ran into Joey Logano early into the race, falling two laps down during his stops for repairs, he was on a different pit sequence and had plenty of gas to make it to the end.

So he liked his chances when he lined up fifth on the final restart.

As the field prepared to take the green, Sam Hornish Jr. ran out of gas and NASCAR called off the start. It tacked on yet another lap, and that cost Paul Menard, who led a race-high 110 laps but ran out of gas as the field took the green.

Busch, who was seeking his first Nationwide win of the season and first in his Kyle Busch Motorsports entry, was the leader on the restart and jumped out to a comfortable lead. But his tank ran dry as he exited the third turn, and Stenhouse cruised past for the improbable victory. “I saw Kyle and he was really shaking it down the back straightaway trying to make sure it had a lot of fuel and I thought it was good to go,�

Stenhouse said. “But right in the center it ran out and I was able to sneak by him on the outside and get the win. That was exciting.�

The win tightened up the Nationwide championship race, too. Stenhouse was 13 points behind leader Elliott Sadler at the start of the race, but cut it to six points with three races remaining. “We knew we had to do that. I didn’t see the win coming like this but I felt we had a car that was capable of winning before we got in the mess there with (Logano),� Stenhouse said. “We know we need to win races and if we win the rest we will win the championship no matter what. We have good tracks coming up for us and we are looking forward to getting to them.�

Austin Dillon finished second to clinch the manufacturer championship for Chevrolet.

Logano wound up third, and was still smarting from the early contact with Stenhouse. He made a point to rub against Stenhouse’s car on the cool-down lap to show his displeasure.

PRO HOCKEY

NHL negotiations on hold NEW YORK — NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly and players’ association special counsel Steve Fehr spoke to each other on Saturday, but the sides still have no plans to meet faceto-face as a deadline to preserve a full hockey season draws nearer.

No details of what Daly and Fehr discussed on Saturday were released, but both sides said there were no new developments on the 35th day of the lockout.

On Friday, the NHL canceled all games through Nov. 1. The league said in its most recent proposal to the players that a deal must be reached by Thursday in order for the season to start on Nov. 2.

Love, Furyk tied at top ST. SIMONS ISLAND, GA. — Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III made a 12-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole Saturday for a 4-under 66 that gave him a share of the lead with Jim Furyk going into the final round of the McGladrey Classic.

For a Fall Series event that features only two of the top 25 players in the world, the McGladrey Classic managed a final group packed with plenty of star power. Love is the tournament host, a Sea Island resident since he was 14, whose 20 career PGA Tour wins include the PGA Championship. Furyk, who also had a 66, is a former U.S. Open champion with 16 career wins.

They were at 13-under 197, two shots ahead of Arjun Atwal and D.J. Trahan.

BASEBALL

Bell dealt to Diamondbacks PHOENIX — Heath Bell became the latest player jettisoned by the Miami Marlins when he was dealt Saturday to the Arizona Diamondbacks, who also acquired infielder Cliff Pennington from the Oakland for outfielder Chris Young.

Arizona obtained Pennington and minorleague infielder Yordy Cabrera from Oakland for Young and cash, then sent Cabrera to the Miami Marlins for Bell and cash.

Earlier in the day, Arizona exercised a $6.5 million option on closer J.J. Putz.

The 35-year-old Bell has 151 saves the past four seasons. He signed a $27 million, three-year contract with Miami last offseason but lost his closer’s job in July. He finished with 19 saves in 27 chances and a 5.09 earned-run average in in 73 games.

Jeter has surgery on ankle NEW YORK — Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has had surgery to repair a broken left ankle.

Dr. Robert Anderson operated Saturday in Charlotte, N.C. The Yankees said complete recovery for their 38-year-old captain is expected to take four-to-five months.

Jeter was injured Oct. 13 in the 12th inning of the AL championship series against Detroit while trying to field a grounder. The Tigers went on to sweep the Yankees.

Sabathia to be examined NEW YORK — Yankees ace CC Sabathia will have his pitching elbow examined by Dr. James Andrews following inflammation that landed him on the disabled list in August.

An MRI showed a bone spur in the left elbow and the Yankees believe it has existed since he pitched for the Cleveland Indians from 2001-08.

U.S. women, Germany draw BRIDGEVIEW, ILL. — Abby Wambach and Germany’s Anja Mittag scored in the first half Saturday night, and the U.S. women had to settle for a 1-1 tie in their first game without former coach Pia Sundhage. The draw in the match-up between the world’s top two teams snapped a 14-game winning streak for the U.S.

was our major goal,” Soderberg said Haley Johnson then kept the pro-Free State crowd fired up with her routine, and Soderberg, Bartle and Howland closed it out.

“I feel like we kicked butt on floor,” Soderberg said after FSHS scored 27.75 as a team, better than all 12 of the other programs.

Bartle took fourth place in vault, and Soderberg tied for fourth in beam and sixth in bars.

“We knew going in that we really had to pick it up without a major teammate,” Soderberg said.

“We tried to do the best we could with what we FREE STATE’S ANNIE SODERBERG COMPETES ON THE BALANCE BEAM. had, and we did.”

Lions finish sixth A year after a 12th-place showing at state, Lawrence High made it clear how far it has come under McMurray this season by securing sixth place at state.

“I think it’s huge,” junior Jessie Abernathy said. “I was so excited.”

The crowd backed Abernathy in her floor routine and acknowledged her with a raucous ovation upon its completion.

Abernathy’s 9.175 points earned her a fourth-place medal.

“I love home meets,” she said. “People come and support you, and floor’s the best.”

LHS junior Allison Williams left the state meet satisfied, too. She just returned to practice this week after suffering a stress fracture in her right fibula. But she still tied for sixth in the beam, with 8.5 points.

Williams said she and teammates Abernathy, Ashley Ammann, Cambry Lynch and Sydney Theilen (Heather Wisbey was out because of a sprained wrist) improved throughout the season. In fact, the Lions’ 98.875 score at state was almost five points higher than their score a week ago at Sunflower League, where they placed ninth.

“I’m really proud of those girls,” Williams said.

“We’ve come far.”

Abernathy expects Lawrence, which had no seniors competing, to keep improving.

“We’ll have the same team next year,” she said, “and I feel like we can come back even stronger and place in the top three and be a major competitor.”

BRIEFLY KU swimmers fall Firebirds flat to Minnesota at sub-state Kansas University’s swim team fell to Minnesota, 179-119, in the Jayhawks’ first home meet of the year on Saturday at Robinson Natatorium.

Sophomore Alina Vats led the way for KU (1-1) with top finishes in three events. Vats placed first in the 100 backstroke, 200 backstroke and anchored Kansas’ first-place 200 freestyle relay team.

Senior Rebecca Swank earned the Jayhawks’ only other first-place finish with a victory in the 1,000 freestyle. Swank, who also took second in the 500 freestyle, was one of eight Kansas seniors honored during Senior Day festivities before the meet.

KU will face NebraskaOmaha at 5 p.m. Thursday in Omaha, Neb.

GARDNER — Free State High volleyball lost Saturday, 25-18, 25-20, in the substate semifinals to a Blue Valley West team the Firebirds had swept in straight sets four days earlier.

FSHS had swept BVW, 25-17, 25-10, on Tuesday at Topeka, but at sub-state, Free State (26-12) fell behind early in both sets.

Blue Valley West (22-10) set up its defense to stop Shelby Holmes on the outside, and FSHS coach Nancy Hopkins said the Jaguars seemed to block everything Holmes hit for a while, which took Free State out of its comfort zone.

Playing opposite Holmes, Bailey Harrell delivered some kills for Free State.

Harrell’s play sparked the Firebirds in the second set, but it came too late.

LHS volleyball falls Seabury falls in sub-state semis to No. 2 Gardner GARDNER — Lawrence High’s volleyball season ended with a 25-9, 25-13 loss to host GardnerEdgerton in the first round of a Class 6A sub-state on Saturday.

“The score wasn’t indicative of their play today,” LHS coach Stephanie Magnuson said. “They played well until the end, aggressive, and I’m very proud of them.”

Gardner, the No. 2-ranked team in 6A, improved to 33-6.

“They’re an incredible team,” Magnuson said of G-E. “They’re just solid all around.”

The Lions finished 17-18.

UNIONTOWN —Bishop Seabury Academy fell to Oswego in the semifinals of a Class 2A volleyball substate tournament Saturday.

Seabury, which finished its season with a schoolrecord 20 wins to 13 losses, won its first match of the day, 25-20, 25-17 against Yates Center before falling to Oswego, 23-25, 20-25.

Senior Sarah McDermott led the Seahawks with 12 kills, 12 assists and seven aces.

KU’s Cardona advances at ITA TULSA, OKLA. — Kansas University’s only remaining

representative at the ITA Regional Championships, freshman Maria Jose Cardona, advanced to the quarterfinals on Saturday at Michael D. Case Tennis Center.

Cardona defeated Wichita State’s Lucia Kovalova, 6-2, 6-4, in the Round of 16 and will face Oklahoma’s Hermon Brhane today.

Trubica wins draw at KU Invitational Kansas University freshman tennis player Anastasija Trubica won two matches to top Singles Draw C on Saturday at the KU Invitational at Jayhawk Tennis Center.

Soccer regional seeds set After a 10-5-1 regular season, Lawrence High’s boys soccer team enters the postseason as the No. 3 seed in Class 6A’s Central Regional 2 bracket.

That means the Lions open the playoffs at home, with a 7 p.m. Tuesday game at LHS against Topeka (5-8-3). Lawrence shut out Topeka, 6-0, on Aug. 28.

Free State (6-10), meanwhile, plays on the opposite side of the same regional bracket, and must open the playoffs on the road. The Firebirds play at Manhattan (11-4-1) at 6 p.m. Tuesday.

FSHS did not face Manhattan in the regular season.

The winners of Tuesday’s games advance to the regional final on Thursday.

The top remaining seed — No. 2 Manhattan, No. 3 Lawrence or No. 6 Topeka — will host the final. As the low seed, FSHS is guaranteed to play on the road again should it advance.

OLATHE — Lawrence High’s Grace Morgan won an individual regional championship and, along with the Free State boys cross country team and three other city athletes, qualified for the state meet at a Class 6A regional on Saturday at Lone Elm Park.

Morgan, who ran a time of 15:14, qualified along with teammate Claire Sanner (sixth place, 15:39).

The LHS girls team finished 15 points away from the qualifying thirdplace spot and ended up in fourth place with 85 points.

The Firebirds boys finished third and were led by a pair of runners who finished a little over a tenth of a second apart — Ryan Liston (eighth, 16:51.70) and Trail Spears (ninth, 16:51.85).

The top three teams in

the boys race were separated by just six points, as the Firebirds (78 points) finished behind Olathe North (75 points) and regional champion Olathe East (72 points).

Gavin Fischer (second, 16:14) was the lone qualifier for the Lions boys, who finished last in the team standings at eighth place.

Bailey Sullivan (ninth, 15:56) also qualified individually and will be the only representative for the Firebirds girls team, which finished in fifth place with 131 points.

The qualifiers will take to the trails for the state meet Saturday at Rim Rock Farm. Class 6A boys will race at 11 a.m., followed by 6A girls at 12:30 p.m.

Seabury girls advance to state tournament BURLINGTON — The Bishop Seabury Academy girls cross country team earned a trip to the Class 2A state

meet with a runner-up finish Saturday at the Burlington regional.

Junior Kate Albrecht led the Seahawks with a second-place finish of her own, running the 4K in 15:33. Maddie McCaffrey (10th place, 16:25) and Heidi Dumesich (12th, 16:55) set personal bests, and Phoebe Grabill (20th, 17:51) and Addie Graham (26th, 18:29) rounded out Seabury’s top five. The Seahawks were 14 points back from Maranatha, which won the regional with 32 points.

Senior Brandon McCaffrey was the lone state qualifier for the Seabury boys. McCaffrey ran a personal-best and schoolrecord 17:34 in the 5K for a second-place finish. The Seahawks took fifth place as a team, just two points behind fourth-place Lyndon and 14 points shy of third-place Arma-Northeast.

KU volleyball tops TCU, 3-1 J-W Staff Reports

The Kansas University volleyball team extended its school-record home winning streak to 12 matches with a four-set victory over TCU on Saturday at Horejsi Center.

with the 25-21, 25-20, 2225, 25-19 win.

match, eventually winning the third set after dropping the first two. TCU battled Kansas to a 17-all tie in the fourth set before KU closed out the match with a 8-2 run, thanks in part to Jarmoc’s set-best eight kills in nine attempts.

BIG 12 ROUNDUP

KSU slams WVU behind Klein’s seven scores The Associated Press

No. 4 Kansas State 55, No. 17 West Virginia 14 MORGANTOWN, W.VA. — The final touchdown pass drew only a slight fist pump from Collin Klein. It was still the third quarter, but Milan-Puskar Stadium was half-empty.

Most of the West Virginia fans had seen enough of a game that had turned into a Heisman Trophy campaign ad for the Kansas State quarterback.

Klein threw for a career-high 323 yards and three touchdowns and ran for four scores as Kansas State got little resistance from West Virginia in a victory Saturday night.

The Wildcats (7-0, 4-0 Big 12) made it look easy.

Klein completed 19 of 21 passes and added 41 yards rushing.

“I think we all felt comfortable tonight,” he said.

“The coaches did a great job of building a game plan and putting us in positions to succeed.”

No doubt. The Wildcats scored on their first eight possessions, including seven straight touchdowns.

“He doesn’t do anything wrong,” West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said of Klein. “He’s hard to tackle. He gets them in good plays. He doesn’t turn the ball over. You can say what you want to about the throwing motion, but it goes exactly where he wants it go. He’s a good football player.”

Way too good for West Virginia to stop.

It was no surprise the Mountaineers (5-2, 2-2) were awful on defense — it’s been that way all season. For the second straight game, though, Geno Smith and the offense did nothing to keep it close.

Smith followed up a clunker at Texas Tech last week with an even worse game, throwing his first two interceptions of the season and finishing 21 of 32 for 143 yards. The senior has gone from Heisman Trophy front-runner to long shot in two weeks.

“We talked about it all week. Don’t get impatient.

Don’t get impatient,” Holgorsen said. “You have the ball a couple of times and you look up there and you’re down 17 points and you start pressing. It’s inevitable.

“We’re trying to score 14 points in one play.”

Kansas State made it 52-7 with 2:25 left in the third quarter when Klein hit Tyler Lockett over the middle for a 20-yard score. Klein turned toward his sideline and gave a modest shake of his fist before joining his teammates to celebrate. It was the fourth time this season the Wildcats had scored in the 50s.

By that point a long line of cars was creeping out of the parking lot. The only section of the stadium that was still filled was covered in KSU purple.

“I was certainly pleased with the way that our youngsters approached the ballgame, the preparation for the game and how they traveled,” said Bill Snyder, whose remarkable 21-year, two-act career as Kansas State coach is only missing a national championship. “I was proud of how they kept their focus.

We played great.”

The optimism and excitement that was pumping through Morgantown a couple of weeks ago is gone.

In Manhattan, Kan., it’s all good, and everything is on the table for Snyder’s team. The Wildcats are the only unbeaten squad in the Big 12. Their quarterback is the Heisman front-runner. And with five games left on the schedule, the Wildcats are serious national title contenders.

The first meeting since 1931 of the new Big 12 rivals was so lopsided that by the time it was over it

“

He doesn’t do anything wrong. He’s hard to tackle. He gets them in good plays. He doesn’t turn the ball over. ... He’s a good football player.”

— West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen on KSU QB Collin Klein was hard to even remember that it started as a battle for first place in the conference.

On one side was Klein, aka Optimus Klein, the Wildcats’ methodical battering ram, whose passes don’t look like much, but usually find their target.

On the other side was Smith, the future NFL first-round draft pick with the video game passing statistics.

But Klein got to face West Virginia’s beleaguered defense, which ranks near the bottom of the Big 12 and the country in just about every statistic.

With the Mountaineers seemingly determined to at least stop the run early, Klein completed his first seven passes, including a 10-yard touchdown that Lockett made a stretching, toe-dragging catch on in the back corner of the end zone. That made it 10-0 in the first.

The K-State running game went to work on the third drive and Klein finished it off with a 1-yard plunge.

Klein made it 24-0 on the next Kansas State drive, taking an option keeper 8 yards. That gave him 39 rushing touchdowns over the last two seasons to break an FBS record held

by Eric Crouch of Nebraska and Stacey Robinson of Northern Illinois.

Tavon Austin finally put a little life back into the sellout crowd when he took the ensuing kickoff back 100 yards for a score with 4:12 left in the first half.

The bad news for West Virginia was that it gave the Wildcats more than enough time to get the ball back in the end zone — which they did with another 1-yard dive by Klein.

The first-half onslaught went like this for Kansas State: five possessions, 346 yards, four touchdowns and a field goal. The offense was unstoppable and the defense was just as good, holding Smith to 62 yards by flooding the secondary with defenders and getting a pass rush without blitzing much.

“I thought our defense played well and played aggressive and pursued the ball,” Snyder said. “We had a relentless pass rush and we got our hands on Geno Smith.”

Maybe the pressure of having to score every time he touches the ball has gotten to Smith, too. That trip to New York for the Heisman Trophy presentation, which seemed like a lock after the Mountaineers won at Texas, is now in serious doubt.

“This is about as low as it gets,” Smith said.

As for Klein and the Wildcats, they will face tougher tests. The gap between the top and the bottom of the Big 12 doesn’t seem all that wide. But they have now won three conference road games, including at Oklahoma.

They came into the weekend fourth in the BCS standings, behind Alabama, Florida and Oregon.

With their 73-year-old coach pushing all the right buttons and their happily married quarterback making all the right plays, the Wildcats might be due for a promotion.

NOTEBOOK

Cummings so-so in first start

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

NORMAN, OKLA. — Redshirt freshman quarterback Michael Cummings made the first start of his career on Saturday, and even though his squad wound up on the wrong end of a 52-7 drubbing by the 10th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners, Cummings managed to crack a smile when talking about his debut.

“I was excited,” said Cummings, who finished 10-of-21 for 111 yards and two interceptions. “OU, all the history and everything … clearly, the game didn’t end up how we wanted it to end up.”

While KU coach Charlie Weis played Cummings and fifth-year senior Dayne Crist

(3-of-6 for 13 yards) at quarterback against the Sooners, Cummings said the first indication that he would be KU’s starter came early Saturday morning. All that did was add to the excitement.

“No butterflies anymore,” he said.

During his first drive, Cummings, who played nearly all of the second half, took over with his back against his own end zone and completed two of three third-down passes, which led to two KU first downs. The drive stalled when a thirddown pass for Sims was a little hot, and KU had to punt.

It didn’t produce points, but Cummings looked comfortable in his first action in a hostile environment.

“I was proud of Mike,”

junior tailback James Sims said. “Mike stepped up and showed what he could do in the first quarter. Things didn’t go our way, but he still continued to play hard.”

For the second week in a row, Cummings showed the elusiveness that brings a different dimension to this KU offense. The reverse spin move already seems like his favorite escape mechanism, and, although it did not always work on Saturday against the Sooners, it did keep several plays alive.

Marrongelli banged up Starting center Trevor Marrongelli left the game briefly during the first quarter and was replaced by redshirt freshman Dylan Admire.

Admire stayed in for a couple of plays and delivered a couple of shotgun snaps on the money before Marrongelli came back.

In other injury news, sophomore Tony Pierson played for the first time in seven quarters, rushing 14 times for 67 yards. Senior linebacker Tunde Bakare, who missed last week’s game because of a head injury, also returned to the field.

Sims solid — again Sims continued his strong comeback from a threegame suspension. Sims, who entered the game averaging 114.7 yards per outing, ran for 102 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries, bringing his team-leading totals to 446 yards and five touchdowns.

GAME BALLS GASSERS CANDIDATES FOR GAME BALLS "#Freshman Josh Ford, an exceptional special-teams player, rocked Justin Brown into fumbling a punt that Victor Simmons recovered for KU at the OU 11. "#James Sims rushed for 102 yards, surpassing 100 yards for the third week in a row.

CANDIDATES FOR GASSERS "#Dayne Crist for badly missing an easy pass that would have gone for a touchdown on first down from the 11 and for getting sacked and fumbling the ball away on third down of the same series. "#Kicker Nick Prolago for missing a 30-yard field-goal attempt.

HOW THEY SCORED First Quarter 7:41 — Mike Hunnicutt 37 field goal. Oklahoma’s first drive nearly resulted in an easy touchdown pass from Landry Jones to fullback Trey Millard, but Millard dropped a pass down the seam, allowing KU to hold on the next two plays to force the field-goal try. Had Millard caught the pass, he would’ve walked in untouched. The drive covered 53 yards in eight plays and 2:50 but probably seemed like a moral victory of sorts for KU’s defense, which entered the game ranked 13th in the country in red-zone defense. (OU 3, KU 0).

3:49 — Kenny Stills 44 pass from Jones. Hunnicutt kick. The Sooners responded to KU’s second punt with a four-play, 87-yard drive that took just 58 seconds and featured a perfectly throw touchdown pass from Jones to his favorite target. KU sophomore JaCorey Shepherd had tight coverage on Stills, but it didn’t matter, as Jones placed the ball perfectly into his receiver’s hands near the back of the end zone. (OU 10, KU 0).

Second Quarter 12:29 — Blake Bell 1 run. Hunnicutt kick. A Dayne Crist fumble deep inside Oklahoma territory was returned 45 yards by OU defensive tackle Casey Walker. Seven plays and 3:17 later, the Sooners capped the 28-yard drive with a TD run from the “Belldozer.” Senior linebacker Tunde Bakare delivered a big-time hit on Bell two plays before the touchdown, standing him up and driving him back. The play resulted in a first down, though, and OU added to its lead. (OU 17, KU 0).

10:04 — Justin Brown 90 punt return. Hunnicutt kick. KU again picked up a couple of first downs with Cummings at QB, but the drive stalled after that, and OU’s dynamic return man took Ron Doherty’s fourth punt back to the end zone, diving to the pile-on as KU’s Marquis Jackson charged toward him to push him out of bounds. (OU 24, KU 0).

5:12 — Damien Williams 4 run. Hunnicutt kick. The Sooners capitalized on an ill-advised throw by Cummings with an interception

by Javon Harris and then traveled 47 yards in eight plays and 2:36 to blow things open. The drive featured a 32-yard pass from Jones to Stills on first down, but the play was overturned by replay. Two plays later, Jones hit freshman wide receiver Sterling Shepard for 31 yards and a first down. (OU 31, KU 0).

1:12 — Sterling Shepard 9 pass from Jones. Hunnicutt kick. As the KU offense continued to struggle, the OU offense kept pouring it on. Jump-started by a 41-yard run by Brennan Clay on first down, the Sooners marched 76 yards in seven plays and 1:13 to score for the sixth time in six offensive drives. (OU 38, KU 0).

Third Quarter 14:47 — Roy Finch 100 kickoff return. Hunnicutt kick. Finch returned the opening kickoff of the second half from goal line to goal line without being touched. (OU 45, KU 0).

9:53 — Trey Millard 25 pass from Jones. Hunnicutt kick. If there was a way to stop the Sooners’ offense on Saturday night, the Jayhawks never found it. OU rolled to its seventh touchdown from a seventh player with a six-play, 86 yard drive in 2:43. (OU 52, KU 0).

Fourth Quarter 3:11 — James Sims 1 run. Nick Prolago kick. Backed by a heavy dose of Sims and Tony Pierson, the Jayhawks finally scored after a long and methodical fourth-quarter drive that covered 80 yards in 19 plays and 10:22. (OU 52, KU 7).

AFTER SUFFERING A 52-7 LOSS TO OKLAHOMA on Saturday in Norman, Okla., the Jayhawks leave the field over a crimson walkway featuring all the national championships won by Oklahoma.

Kansas

Mike Hunnicutt field goal on their opening drive, the Sooners racked up six straight touchdowns and watched seven players score their seven touchdowns.

Kenny Stills caught a 44-yard touchdown pass.

Wichita native Blake Bell, “The Belldozer,” plowed in for a one-yard TD run.

Tailback Damien Williams scored from four yards out.

And Sterling Shepard (nine yards) and Trey Millard (25) caught touchdowns from OU quarterback Landry Jones, who finished 19-of-28 for 291 yards and three touchdowns.

“It was all just bombs away,” Weis said of the first half in which the Sooners

rolled to 286 yards, 38 points and five straight touchdowns.

“The Catch-22 when you get Landry is, you blitz him, and he gets one-on-one and he has a chance of exposing you. You sit back and you rush just four, he has more time and has a chance of exposing you.”

Of course, it was not just bizarre offense or bad defense that cost the Jayhawks in this one. KU’s special teams — both for and against — struggled.

“I mean, this isn’t Barry Sanders out there that we’re talking about now,” Weis said while critiquing his special teams. “The problem I have is, we played a lot of first- and second-teamers on special teams.”

The 90-yard punt return touchdown by Brown — remember him? — in the first half and 100-yard kickoff return touchdown by Roy Finch to open the second half marked the first time in OU history that the Sooners had returned a punt and kickoff all the way in the same game.

Even for the most optimistic KU fans, such a stat had an all-too-familiar and troublesome ring to it.

“It kind of reminded me of Texas A&M last year,” said Bradley McDougald, comparing Saturday’s loss to the 61-7 embarrassment at A&M in 2011. “The only difference is, in that game, we didn’t turn it around in the second half, they just kept scoring and scoring and scoring.”

That Jayhawks’ secondhalf success was something Weis talked a lot about following the game. But it wasn’t as if he was trying to spin it that the Jayhawks deserved a pat on the back for hanging tougher in the final two quarters, more that he saw it as a positive sign that his players answered the only challenge left for them after trailing 38-0 at the half.

“At halftime, it wasn’t about trying to win the game,” Weis said. “At halftime, it was about, ‘Let’s see what you got in ya.’

At least they answered that question, but the game was decided in the first half, not the second half.”

It’s not he merely was playing catch going to happen. Not for with Crist, getting him ready

to go back into the game.

Asked after the game if he gave any thought to putting Baty in, Weis said, “No. No thought.”

Unlike Cummings, Baty didn’t get a head start on learning the offense by participating in spring football, but he’s had plenty of time to study it since.

Nobody knows Charlie Weis’ offense better than Charlie Weis, but that doesn’t mean if he had any eligibility left, that knowledge would make him the best choice to try to execute Charlie Weis’ offense. Crist is said to have a deep understanding of the offense, but that didn’t translate to performance.

Baty’s winning history ought to count for something. Weis must have liked something about him, or he wouldn’t have offered him a scholarship, so if Cummings proves he’s not ready, why not see if Baty could give

this team the best chance at avoiding a 1-11 record?

When a team allows a touchdown on a kickoff and a punt in the same game, misses a 30-yard field goal, repeatedly gets torched deep with passes to multiple receivers and trails 38-0 at the half, a coach has plenty of fix-it projects weighing on his mind.

“I’m not worried about the quarterback,” Weis said.

“I mean, I’ve got a whole bunch of issues. Why don’t we talk about special teams?

Why don’t we start there? It seems like every time they had a return, it was for a touchdown.”

True, but it always starts at quarterback, and if there is one position Weis knows best, that’s it. The position is broken, and Charlie needs to get to work fixing it with someone other than Crist.

Jake Heaps will need an experienced backup next season.

On third down, it was back to Crist, who fled from the pocket, spun around until he coughed up the football and lay face-down on the turf in front of 84,532 OU fans as defensive tackle Casey Walker rumbled with the fumble 45 yards to the Kansas 28-yard line.

“I wasn’t looking to play musical quarterbacks,” Weis said of the failed series that summed up KU’s rough night.

“It was just that three-play sequence fit the guys who had practiced those plays from that field position.”

Weis said KU’s game plan centered on Cummings handling the “bunched up” plays and Crist handling the “opened up” plays.

“There were two totally separate sets of things we were doing,” he said. “On every one of those (Cummings) plays, there’s a potential quarterback run, and that’s certainly not what we want Dayne to be doing.”

As the game went on, it mattered little who took the snaps for KU or what he did with them. The Sooners simply were too much.

NLCS

Cardinals forced to take trip West SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The Giants sure are tough to eliminate this postseason.

Barry Zito and the Giants gave themselves at least one more game in the NL championship series with a 5-0 victory Friday in St. Louis that forced tonight’s Game 6 back at AT&T Park.

Just where the NL West winners want to be with their season on the line — in front of the raucous, orange-towel-waving sellout crowd.

“It’s great to be back in San Francisco. There is no tomorrow,” Giants right fielder Hunter Pence said.

“It’s a unique feeling. It has brought the best out of us.”

The wild-card Cardinals traveled out West again for a trip they certainly hoped they wouldn’t have to make. Defending champion St. Louis leads the best-of-seven series 3-2, needing one more win for a World Series return.

St. Louis knows how hard winning the last one can be considering what this Giants team already did during these playoffs: winning three straight on the road at Cincinnati in

Vogelsong starts for the Giants for the second time this series against Chris Carpenter, who lost that match-up at San Francisco on Monday.

“No question, we want to win it as soon as we can. We wanted to do it last night,” Carpenter said Saturday. “But, again, we

have to get one win before they get two. We’ll do whatever we can. If it’s not tomorrow night we’ll come in and do it again.”

While the Cardinals took a day to rest — Carpenter and a couple of pitchers did play some catch — Pence and most of his team showed up

at the ballpark in late afternoon to hit and work out even though manager Bruce Bochy gave his players the day off.

With Vogelsong on the mound, the Giants have to like their chances to push the series to a Game 7.

Vogelsong became the first Giants starter to make

it through six innings this postseason when he went seven strong innings in a 7-1 Game 2 victory. He allowed four hits and one run for his first career postseason win.

“We all kind of feel like we’ve been in this situation before with Cincinnati,” Vogelsong said.

“And it’s not over until the last out. I think both teams that are playing right now have proved that in the first round.”

Giants general manager Brian Sabean wasn’t surprised to see his team on the field Saturday for an optional practice — realizing full well players didn’t want to risk losing any momentum from the night before.

“Sometimes you wonder how much at this stage that there is a home-field advantage,” Sabean said. “In some cases, because of the bullpens, it’s probably as much as whoever gets the lead and can hold off the other ballclub from scoring will win the ballgame.

We know what’s at stake.

We know that they’re going to put a game against us. I’m sure Vogey will be ready.”

Tigers’ Valverde ready for any role in Series DETROIT (AP) — Jose Valverde threw a few pitches during Detroit’s workout, then returned to the dugout as upbeat as usual.

Valverde’s role for the World Series still isn’t clear, but the right-hander doesn’t seem to mind.

“I don’t care. All I want is to be a champion,” he said. “If I had to start, I’d do it.”

Valverde has been Detroit’s closer for three

years and didn’t blow a save through all of 2011, but this postseason has been ugly. He lost Game 4 of the division series against Oakland and gave up four runs in the AL championship series opener against the New York Yankees.

The Tigers went on to win that game and sweep the series, but Valverde hasn’t been used since.

The World Series be-

gins Wednesday at either St. Louis or San Francisco. Valverde sounds confident he’s made the necessary mechanical adjustments, and so does manager Jim Leyland.

“I think everybody’s making too big of a deal of the Valverde situation. Valverde’s going to be ready. There’s nothing wrong with Valverde.

He’s going to be fine,” Leyland said.

“I got a kick out of it.

Nobody wanted me to pitch him, but everybody asks me every day if he’s going to be the closer,” Leyland said. “I don’t know what they expect, but I’m going to just see what happens.”

Leyland went with other options after Valverde’s meltdown against the Yankees. Left-hander Phil Coke got the save in Games 2 and 3.

Florida stays unbeaten, drops S.C., 44-11 No. 12 Florida State 33, Miami 20 MIAMI — EJ Manuel threw for 229 yards, Devonta Freeman ran for a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns, and Florida State overcame a shaky start.

The Associated Press

No. 3 Florida 44, No. 9 South Carolina 11 GAINESVILLE, FLA. — Jeff Driskel threw four touchdown passes — three of them after turnovers — and Florida matched its win total from last season with a drubbing of South Carolina on Saturday.

The Gators avenged consecutive losses to the Gamecocks, including one two years ago that ended with Steve Spurrier and his players celebrating a division title in The Swamp.

Florida’s latest whatever-it-takes win kept coach Will Muschamp’s team undefeated and put it on the cusp of the Southeasten Conference’s Eastern Division title. The Gators (7-0, 6-0 SEC) can clinch a spot in the SEC championship game by beating No. 13 Georgia next week in nearby Jacksonville.

Florida won this one with turnovers, stellar defense and more halftime adjustments — the kind of successful tweaks that are making Muschamp and his staff seem like the right fit in Gainesville.

South Carolina (62, 4-2) lost its second straight.

ARTISTIC PURSUIT

East Lawrence development draws artists looking for space to create, display works

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

Matthew Burke’s Kansas University art students were creating the sculptures for class anyway — giant 3-D portraits of sorts, with heads based on real people and finished with mixed-media to suit.

The unique “window in time” at the Warehouse Arts District enabled “Flash Space Heads” to become a show, with an ample home and even foot traffic.

“It’s so important that our sculptors, in particular, are confronted with an overwhelming sense of space,” Burke says of the gaping Flash Space gallery at 830 Pennsylvania. “Our classroom was just too small to really make these things come alive.”

ment of 826 Pennsylvania, which they’ve dubbed Seed Co. Studios.

Down an industrial concrete ramp, about a dozen artists have studio space and wall space to display their work.

Johanssen knows upstairs won’t be vacant forever, but in the meantime his group is using it for music events, extra studio space and even a giant graffiti wall for artists who need a diversion from their work.

“Anytime somebody’s feeling like painting, you can just go up there and blast on a big scale,” Johanssen says.

The district’s developer has pledged to maintain the previously mostly abandoned swath of East Lawrence as a neighborhood for art creators, art viewers and other creative professions. But until buildings are finished and filled with more permanent tenants, artists are putting their creativity to work in the vast, raw spaces.

y knowledge of art, or lack thereof, is laughable. I wouldn’t know the difference between a Rothko or a Rodin if I hadn’t just looked them up on Google.

But I love old stuff — antiques, vintage clothes, vehicles — that require me to jiggle something before the lights work, and historical artifacts. When it comes to the latter, the creepier the better. So I felt like a real connoisseur when I visited Cabinet of Curiosities, the photography and specimens exhibit at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (4525 Oak Street, Kansas City, Mo., Bloch Building, Gallery L11) last weekend.

The collection of oddities, including animal and insect remains, rocks, and other relics, is sort of like the 16th-century version of looking at weird things on the Internet. According to the description on the Nelson-Atkins’ website, “Precursors to the modern museum, these Cabinets were assembled by their owners to reflect the intense fascination with the marvelous, unusual, unexpected, exotic, extraordinary, or rare.”

My fascinations are similar, so this exhibition of early entertainment did not disappoint. While the gawkers to my left (perhaps appropriately) found a series of extracted teeth “disgusting,” I was amused. But for those who do find such things unappealing, there is still plenty to like, including an incredibly detailed

ARTS NOTES

Flint Hills exhibit includes local artist

Work by Lawrence artist Betsy Forcade is included in a special Flint Hills-inspired exhibit at the Buttonwood Art Space, 3013 Main St. in Kansas City, Mo. Forcade’s fine-art nature photos are part of Buttonwood’s fourth annual “Visions of the Flint Hills” show, which runs through Nov. 30. A percent of proceeds from the show goes to the Flint Hills Tourism Coalition, a nonprofit group that supports conservation and tourism in the Flint Hills.

A reception is planned for 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Nov. 2, the evening of Kansas City’s November First Fridays event.

honesty, a complete surprise to us and obviously our absolute first and foremost dream.”

Douglas County has approved a 10-year tax rebate for the project, Krsnich says, and the city has begun upgrading streets. Sidewalks on Pennsylvania aren’t passable, and at a recent Final Fridays event, there was only one working streetlight on the block. But Krsnich says he’s confident the city will improve those problems, too.

So far, plans include a gallery and event space in the Cider Building, 810 Pennsylvania, with an “entrepreneur port” upstairs. Krsnich says he’s talking to an established artist and a film company about moving into 720 E. Ninth St. He’d love to have an “arts bar,” deli or boutique grocery move into the Flash Space building.

industry, but that’s not what Krsnich is looking for there.

“We want to have as many artists and as many creative entrepreneurs in the district as possible,” he says. “Kicking the artists out and putting in an industrial facility or something, I’d never do that.”

Krsnich likes housing the Fresh Produce collective and welcomes the temporary activity members help arrange in the vacant space.

“They’re definitely making the most of it,” he says.

‘New energy’ Scott Trettel bought 846 Pennsylvania last fall and says he is planning additional upgrades. His Trettel Design + Build offices are in the lower level, and the Invisible Hand Gallery uses the upper level for Final Fridays shows.

“Most of the occupancies and most of the uses going on down here are really temporary,” Trettel says. “We enjoy the fact that there is new energy in the neighborhood and renewed interest.”

Fresh Produce’s core

members formerly worked and displayed art at Lost Art Space, in the old Penny Annie’s location on Massachusetts Street. Before that, Johanssen says, they worked out of garages. The collective’s polished, “white-wall” Lost Art Space gallery is now at 825 Massachusetts, and their new studio space in the Warehouse Arts District has room for twice as many artists as Penny Annie’s did.

During the September Final Fridays event, Burke — aiming to capitalize on foot traffic from neighboring galleries — stood at the Flash Space door and invited passers-by to check out “Heads.”

Burke says he understands that a raw space open for pop-up art installations wouldn’t be a big money-maker for a developer.

But still, he says, it would be neat.

“If it were me, I would always keep a little something for an opportunity like that,” he says.

Arts Caravan on the move Percolator brings artists, creativity to smaller communities

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

Looking to infuse rural areas with the art and community spirit for which its Rhode Island Street alleyway home is known, the Percolator Artspace is taking its show on the road.

The Percolator’s new Douglas County Arts Caravan took free paper art, giant puppets, bucket drumming and a photo booth to EudoraFest earlier this month and will appear next in Baldwin City this Saturday. If its creators can fine-tune the concept and find the right grants, they’d eventually like to pop up in rural communities throughout the state.

Organizers say they tossed around the idea for a few years but the disbanding of the Kansas Arts Commission fast-forwarded plans.

“This is our response to that,” says Rachael Perry, the Percolator’s chairwoman of the board.

“How can we, as artists and community members, ensure there’s creativity happening ... for all ages of people?”

Lawrence’s arts community is large, active and wary of state funding cuts. But Perry says she and others worry cuts could affect arts in small communities even more sharply.

The caravan’s call for artists included musicians and general “gleemakers,” says Michael Bradley, who leads its

Among other artists, musician Tommee Sherwood played his accordion and the Boogalator, a percussion puppet instrument he created.

“Engaging people like that to share what they’re doing with other people is part of the whole thing,” Bradley says.

But the caravan isn’t only about glee.

BEHIND THE LENS

Photographers explain why they choose black and white

I

invited area photographers to submit some of their favorite blackand-white images for this week’s column and photo gallery. I asked, Why use black and white?

Reasons for documenting a subject in gray scale instead of color were varied, as were the techniques in creating the monochromatic images. Some photographers use traditional black-and-white film. Others shoot color digitally and then convert to black and white. Regardless of the subject, each photographer feels moved to reveal it in shades of gray for specific reasons.

Kent VanHoesen, a former Journal-World photographer, and Richard Gwin, a current staff photographer, both worked in black and white in the ’70s and ’80s. Kodak’s Tri-X was the norm and provided photojournalists the flexibility of documenting subjects in a variety of lighting situations not possible with color. For Gwin, it wasn’t an aesthetic choice — it was the only way to capture basketball action inside Allen Fieldhouse.

For VanHoesen, blackand-white film not only

enabled low-light imagery but also could reveal a distinct and magical contrast between dark and light.

“Black and white is like

a well-written novel,” VanHoesen says. “It leaves something for the imagination.”

Digital technology now enables the photographer to shoot in color and convert to black and white.

Photographer Steve Smith enjoys capturing color photographs on his iPhone and then uses apps to convert to black and white.

About his photograph of a fence and barn, he says, “I chose to eliminate color from the photo to emphasize the geometry and grain of the wooden

Wild West festival the most intense 48 hours in film

E

very year, the area’s best filmmakers gather together at Liberty Hall, receive a set of secret criteria and then have 48 hours to write, cast, shoot and edit a completely original short film. The event that causes numerous sleepless nights and mild forms of dementia is called the Wild West Film Festival, and this year in addition to the secret criteria, each short film must also be in the horror genre.

The top 25 films will be presented at 7 p.m. Oct. 28 at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St., with a Halloween costume contest during intermission. A DVD featuring the screened films and T-shirts will be available for purchase.

I talked to Derek Sellens, who is currently running the Wild West Festival, about what people can expect from this one-ofa-kind film tradition this year, especially because there is a charity component now and, for the first year ever, Los Angeles is joining in the fun.

watching their film on the silver screen. Achieving the emotional response you set out to get when you make your film is one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. After a comedy of mine received huge laughs from the audience, I actually cried I was so moved. I know that’s exactly why we do this to ourselves.

DS: Filmmakers do their best when they are making the films they want to make; because of this we try to leave a lot of flexibility in our criteria. In the past, my two favorite events were the Superheroes event and our Wild West Food Fest event. The Superheroes event was great because superheroes are huge in film and comic culture, so seeing the creativity and enthusiasm for the topic was just amazing for me. The Food Fest I think was our most creative event. Each team received a unique food item for their film and the film had to be about that food item. Teams did some interesting work, and it was really easy to see whether or not they planned their film beforehand.

fence and barn. Both are historical artifacts, and the monochromatic black and white seems to emphasize timelessness and eternity to me.”

Photographing inside a deserted building, Patrick Emerson says, “only with B/W can you convey the loneliness and sense of isolation which I felt.”

Learning about photography in a traditional darkroom, Doug Stremel has always been drawn to monochromatic images.

But the benefits of digital are obvious for him.

“The nice thing about

shooting digital is that I always have the option to use color or black and white,” Stremel says.

“Some images just don’t work in color, and converting to black and white makes the image work really well.”

The darkroom tradition inspires many photographers to work in black and white.

“I never lost the sense of magic I had watching images appear in the developer under the amber safelights,” says photographer Rick Mitchell.

“A good printmaker can make gorgeous, sensual pictures in silver or platinum, to be sure, but the basically monochromatic palette yields an abstraction of reality that focuses the mind and gets straight to the point.”

We’ll consider fall color for my next column, Nov. 4, and you can submit your favorite autumnal photographs to me at myoder@ljworld.com.

Some fall reads, Dixie-style

Autumn brings slew of books about the South

By Gina Webb Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The end of summer presents book lovers with a daunting choice, deciding which of the new fall titles to read. Publishers don’t make it easy when they line up the hottest authors they can find to launch their fall and winter sales, and this year is no exception.

Ellen Jensen, But before you reach copy editor, for the big names, take a Lawrence look at our stack of rec“‘The Chaperone’ (by ommended titles. It’s a diLaura Moriarty). It’s really verse collection of fiction well done. It’s better than I and nonfiction — some by expected.” authors you’ll recognize, some you won’t — that celebrate the South in all its damaged glory and resilience. And they don’t sugarcoat it.

In the real “The Help,” “The Maid Narratives: Black Domestics and White Families in the Jim Crow South” (Louisiana State University Press), the real “Help” talk to authors Jan van Wormer, David W. Jackson III and Rhiana Drake, Charletta Sudduth about works at The Merc, what it was like to work Lawrence for white families during “‘Changing Planes’ (by that same era in Arkansas, Ursula K. Le Guin). It’s Louisiana and Mississippi. about a woman who can Backtravel to different planes, door enand each chapter is about t r a n c e s , a different plane and the s e p a r a t e people who inhabit it.” e a t i n g quarters, outside bathrooms, sexual overtures from their male employers — it’s all here, as well as memories of the murder of Emmett Till, visits from the Ku Kyle Etzel, Klux Klan, and t h e documentary maker, dawn of the civil rights Topeka movement. “‘Les Enfants Terribles’ Read this fair-minded (by Jean Cocteau). It’s study for the reasons the about a sister and a broth- maid themselves give: “… er who play mind games kids need to hear it. They with each other.” need to know the struggles that black people have gone through to get to the point where we are today because our children are a lost generation.”

The book also includes narratives from 15 white women whose contributions, the authors say, “inform in both what they say and in what they do not.”

Wayne Baker, retired, Lawrence “‘AARP Bulletin’ (magazine). There’s tips on antibiotics. We take way too much.”

Nathan Drake, stay-at-home dad, Columbus, Ohio “‘Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb’ (by Al Perkins).”

The war comes home Even if you don’t usually read war novels, make an exception for Kevin Powers’ searing, evocative debut, “The Yellow Birds” (Little, Brown). In a story as focused on the war soldiers bring home with them as the one they fought, Powers asks haunting questions that reconnect us with the reality of combat and its aftermath.

Private John Bartle, an army machine-gunner stationed in Iraq in 2004, has been warned by his drill sergeant to protect

the less experienced Murphy, a tender-hearted boy from Bartle’s home state of Virginia. But what happens when his promise comes up against one more powerful than Bartle can understand? By the time the book opens with a flashback that introduces Murphy, he has long been dead, and the narrator, Bartle, struggles to explain how it happened.

His fragmented but lyrical account shuttles back and forth in time, from Iraq to Germany to his post-combat years in Virginia, a remembrance that gradually reveals the full extent of the toll taken by a war in which trying to stay sane will get you killed.

Southern nightmare P a r a dise turns nightmarish in Laird H u n t ’ s spellbinding new n o v e l , “ K i n d One” (Coffee House Press). The story unfolds in the 1850s, when a 14-year-old Indiana girl leaves home for a promising life in Kentucky as the wife of her second cousin. His slaves are her only companions on the isolated pig farm he calls Paradise.

But Ginny’s new husband is a cruel and perverse master, and as his cowed young wife joins him in mistreating the slaves, neither can imagine that a chilling reprisal awaits.

In taut, hypnotic chapters that loop forward and back in time, Hunt interweaves dreams, African folktales and elements of Shakespeare to deliver half-seen glimpses of the past, narrated by Ginny and several characters whose lives have intersected in the past.

Lit: A Rough South Reader” (University of South Carolina Press) are a lot like drinking moonshine — after taking a couple of swigs, you will not be the same person you were.

Editors Brian Carpenter and Tom Franklin (“Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter”) assembled some of the bestknown connoisseurs of the art of the dirty South — Harry Crews, Lee Smith, William Gay, Larry Brown, Ron Rash, Rick Bragg, Barry Hannah, Tim McLaurin and Dorothy Allison — then tossed in a few more. Every story, without exception, is intoxicating.

Be forewarned: There are snakes and liquor of every kind and chewing tobacco. There are fights between dogs and roosters and over women and fences. There are threats: “If you and that boy come out here for me and Ray, have your boxes built and ready. You gone need’m before you git out again.” Throw in some Baptist churches, a few Bibles, a single-wide, some jailhouse tattoos and pass the whoop-ass, please.

Hidden message Not long ago, a cookbook came out that told us how to cook “deceptively” nutritious food for kids, mostly by pureeing vegetables and hiding them in the recipes. Barbara Kingsolver employs a similar technique in “Flight Behavior” (HarperCollins), dovetailing need-to-know information about climate change and mountaintop removal into an engaging tale of a young wife and mother who witnesses a phenomenon that rocks her insular world.

Everything in Dellarobia Turnbow’s life has been an accident — an early marriage to a man she didn’t love, a life spent on a sheep farm, even her name. On the day she decides to walk away from it all, she has a vision that transforms her dull existence and gives her something to fight for. But when a group of scientists arrives to study the miracle taking place in Dellarobia’s rural Tennessee community, a phrase she has Moonshine tales heard all her life — “the The stories in “Grit Lord works in mysterious

ways” — comes true in more ways than one.

True tale of a plague Could the economic aftermath of the worst yellow fever outbreak ever seen in Memphis have laid the foundations for the city to become “the home of the blues and the cradle of rock ‘n’ roll”? So says Jeanette Keith, author of “Fever Season: The Story of a Terrifying Epidemic and the People Who Saved a City” (Bloomsbury Press).

By the time the September 1878 outbreak of yellow fever was over, it would leave 18,000 Memphians dead.

The heroes, of course, were among the ones who stayed behind.

L a t e r accounts h a v e w h i t e washed the events to make upstanding Memphians who fled the fever look less cowardly. But Keith uses newspaper accounts, letters and diaries of the time to tell “the story of character” and uncover the truth: “Neither heroism nor villainy could be predicted by public standing, gender or race. Upstanding U.S. citizens abandoned their families, and prostitutes and sporting men stepped up to care for the sick.

White elected officials deserted their posts, but black militiamen stood fast as guardians of the city.”

Behind the music We agree with Frank M. Young and David Lasky, the authors of “The Carter Family: Don’t Forget That Song” (Abrams ComicArt), when they ask the question, what better medium than the American comic to tell the story of one of America’s most famous musical families? With careful attention to historical details and using the lively dialect of southwestern Virginia, this full-color graphic biography lovingly chronicles the daily, hardscrabble lives of A.P. Carter, his wife Sara, of Maybelle and Janette and even little June, a family whose recordings and performances built the foundation upon which commercial country music (and, by extension, rock ‘n’ roll) rests, and who helped shape pop music as we know it today. If no Carter family, then no Elvis. No Elvis, no Beatles. Etc. A bonus CD includes rare radio versions of the Carter family’s early tunes.

BRIEFLY Mantel wins rare second Booker LONDON — British writer Hilary Mantel won the prestigious Booker literary prize for a second time Tuesday with her blood-soaked Tudor saga “Bring Up the Bodies,” which the head of the judging panel said had “rewritten the book” on historical fiction.

Mantel, who took the 50,000 pound ($82,000) award in 2009 for “Wolf Hall,” is the first British author, and the first woman, to achieve a Booker double.

“You wait 20 years for a Booker Prize, and two come along at once,” Mantel said as she accepted the award at London’s medieval Guildhall. “I regard this as an act of faith and a vote of confidence.”

Mantel, who quipped in 2009 that she planned to spend her prize money on sex and drugs and rock ‘n’ roll, said “I’m afraid the answer will be much duller this year.”

“Rehab,” she joked, before adding: “My pension, probably.”

“Bring Up the Bodies” is the first sequel to win the prize. It and “Wolf Hall” are parts of a planned trilogy about Thomas Cromwell, the powerful and ambiguous chief minister to King Henry VIII.

Johnny Depp starting book imprint for visionary voices

By Hillel Italie Associated Press

BESTSELLERS

NEW YORK — Johnny Depp is bringing a dash of cool to the book world.

Depp will help run a publishing imprint with the same name as his production company, Infinitum Nihil, meaning “Nothing is forever.” Already on the list of books is “The Unraveled Tales of Bob Dylan,” which aims to set the record straight on the songwriter’s enigmatic life and career and will be based in part on interviews with Dylan by best-selling

historian Douglas Brinkley.

The imprint will be part of HarperCollins Publishers, which announced Monday that Depp will seek “authentic, outspoken and visionary ideas and voices.”

“I pledge, on behalf of Infinitum Nihil, that we will do our best to deliver publications worthy of peoples’ time, of peoples’ concern, publications that might ordinarily never have breached the parapet,” Depp said in a statement released

by HarperCollins. “For this dream realized, we would like to salute HarperCollins for their faith in us and look forward to a long and

fruitful relationship together.”

Brinkley, who recently wrote a cover story on Dylan for Rolling Stone, said he and Depp thought the Dylan book was Depp “the ideal way” to inaugurate the Infinitum Nihil series.

“Bob has been very warm and forthcoming with us,” Brinkley said in a statement. “His music has inspired us both deeply since we were teenagers.”

The Dylan book is scheduled for 2015. Dylan and Brinkley also will collaborate on the editing and publication of a previously announced novel by one of Dylan’s heroes, folk musician Woody Guthrie, who died in 1967.

The novel, “House of Earth,” was completed by Guthrie in 1947 but was only recently discovered. It’s scheduled for January.

Depp already has ties to the book world. He was a close friend of Hunter Thompson and starred in film adaptations of Thompson’s “Rum Diary” and “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.”

Why am I writing? Because the only thing missing from our life is sex. I do not know why, and it may be the hectic pace of our lives, but a year ago, you quit making love to me or being responsive to my attempts.

Al-Qaida in Afghanistan States make it more attempting a comeback difficult to get abortions

By Deb Riechmann and Robert Burns

“

They are trying to increase their numbers and take advanKABUL, AFGHANISTAN — A diminished but re- tage of the Americans silient al-Qaida, whose leaving.”

Associated Press

9/11 attacks drew America into its longest war, is attempting a comeback in Afghanistan’s mountainous east even as U.S. and allied forces wind down their combat mission and concede a small but steady toehold to the terrorist group.

That concerns U.S. commanders, who have intensified strikes against al-Qaida cells in recent months. It also undercuts an Obama administration narrative portraying alQaida as battered to the point of being a non-issue in Afghanistan as Western troops start leaving.

When he visited Afghanistan in May to mark the one-year anniversary of the U.S. raid that killed Osama bin Laden, President Barack Obama said his administration had turned the tide of war.

“The goal that I set — to defeat al-Qaida, and deny it a chance to rebuild — is within reach,” he said.

As things stand, however, an unquestionably weakened al-Qaida appears to have preserved at least limited means of regenerating inside Afghanistan as U.S. influence in the country wanes. The last U.S. combat troops

by Dec. 31, 2014, and security matters turned over to the Afghan government.

“They are trying to increase their numbers and take advantage of the Americans leaving,” the police chief of Paktika province, Gen. Dawlat Khan Zadran, said through a translator in an interview this month in the governor’s compound. He mentioned no numbers, but said al-Qaida has moved more weapons across the border from Pakistan.

For years the main target of U.S.-led forces has been the Taliban, rulers of Afghanistan and protectors of al-Qaida before the U.S. invasion 11 years ago.

But the strategic goal is to prevent al-Qaida from again finding haven in Afghanistan from which to launch attacks on the U.S. Al-Qaida’s leadership fled in late 2001 to neighboring Pakistan, where it remains.

The group remains active inside Afghanistan, fighting U.S. troops, spreading extremist mes-

sages, raising money, recruiting young Afghans and providing military expertise to the Taliban and other radical groups.

U.S. Gen. John Allen, the top commander of international forces in Afghanistan, has said al-Qaida has re-emerged, and although its numbers are small, he says the group doesn’t need a large presence to be influential.

U.S. officials say they are committed, even after the combat mission ends in 2014, to doing whatever it takes to prevent a major resurgence. The Americans intend, for example, to have special operation forces at the ready to keep a long-term lid on al-Qaida inside Afghanistan.

“Al-Qaida could try to reconstitute itself, but they would do so at their own peril given the intense pressure they and other terrorist groups are facing in Afghanistan,” Pentagon press secretary George Little said Saturday.

A more immediate worry is the threat posed by the growing presence of al-Qaida and affiliated groups in Yemen, Somalia and across a broad swath of North Africa, where it is believed al-Qaidalinked militants may have been responsible for the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.

CHICAGO — It’s legal to get an abortion in America, but in many places it is hard and getting harder.

Just this year, 17 states set new limits on abortion; 24 did last year, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a pro-abortion rights nonprofit whose numbers are widely respected. In several states with the most restrictive laws, the number of abortions has fallen slightly, pleasing abortion opponents who say the laws are working.

Some of the states with the toughest laws are spread across a big middle swath of the country, stretching from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.

In South Dakota, which has just one abortion clinic, lawmakers want to extend the required waiting period from two days to three for women seeking to end a pregnancy. Next door in North Dakota, there’s only one clinic. The same is true in Mississippi, where a new law threatens that lone clinic’s existence. In several states, doctors now must warn women about purported risks from abortion that most scientists reject.

Hurdles to face There are hurdles even in states like Illinois, where abortion laws are more lenient and clinics relatively plentiful.

Patients arriving for abortions at a Granite City, Ill., clinic can expect to find their photographs on an anti-abortion activist’s website. And a Chicago woman says that before her abortion in June, her own gynecologist refused to offer any advice, fearing that just mentioning aborANTItion could endanger her LEBANESE job at a Catholic hospital.

Lebanese on edge after fatal car bomb linked to Syria

By Bassem Mroue and Elizabeth A. Kennedy Associated Press

BEIRUT — Lebanese protesters erected flaming roadblocks and gunmen roamed the streets Saturday in a city on edge after the assassination of a top security official in a powerful car bomb the prime minister linked to the civil war in neighboring Syria.

The crisis raised a terrifying specter for Lebanese who fear their country could easily plunge back into cycles of violence and reprisal that have haunted it for decades.

Friday’s blast in the heart of Beirut’s Christian area killed eight people, including the country’s intelligence chief, Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hassan. It was the deadliest bombing in Beirut in four years, shattering the country’s uneasy calm.

The government declared a national day of mourning for the victims Saturday, but protesters burned tires and set up roadblocks in anger.

Sharbal Abdo, who lives in the neighborhood where the bomb went off, brought his 6-year-old son, Chris, and 12-year-old daughter, Jane, to see the destruction Saturday.

“They were very afraid yesterday,” he said. “They need to face this situation.

It may be their future.”

Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati on Saturday linked the bombing to al-Hassan’s high-profile

investigation this summer that uncovered what authorities called a plot by Syria to provoke chaos in Lebanon with bombings and assassinations.

“I don’t want to prejudge the investigation, but in fact we cannot separate yesterday’s crime from the revelation of the explosions that could have happened,” Mikati said at a news conference following an emergency Cabinet meeting.

Mikati, who opponents believe is too close to Syria and the Shiite militant group Hezbollah, offered to resign after the bombing but was asked by President Michel Suleiman to stay.

Women seeking abortions often poor and already mothers

Associated Press

Nearly 1 million women get abortions every year.

Most say they made that choice because they couldn’t afford a baby or having one would interfere with a job, caring for existing children or other responsibilities.

Who are these women? ! More than half — 54 percent — say they were using birth control around the time they got pregnant. ! Most are unmarried, in their 20s and 30s; 18 tressing because they are getting much more creative the way they’re chipping away” at it, said Dr. Renee Mestad, an OBGYN who provides abortions in upstate New York.

Access to abortion isn’t much of a problem there.

But it was where she used to work in Missouri.

“The ideal thing would be that no one gets pregnant unless they’re ready — that all pregnancies are desired pregnancies, but that’s not what happens,” Mestad said.

Abortion top issue for some While surveys have consistently shown most Americans support keeping abortion legal in certain circumstances, many people’s views are nuanced.

A Gallup poll last month found nearly as many voters consider themselves “pro-life” as those who say they are “pro-choice.”

And a new Gallup poll released Wednesday found that nearly 40 percent of female registered voters surveyed in 12 swing states consider abortion the most important election issue for women — even outranking jobs.

President Barack Obama supports access to abortion. GOP challenger Mitt Romney says Roe vs. Wade, the Supreme Court’s nearly 40-yearold decision legalizing abortion, should be over-

turned, which would allow states to ban abortion.

Anti-abortion attorney Teresa Collett, a law professor at the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis, says her ideal would be “to live in a country where abortion is not even really thinkable.” She’d like to see Roe vs. Wade overturned, but even if it is, she said, the debate won’t end because it would be up to states to ban abortion.

Some seem to be moving in that direction. !" More than 30 new abortion laws have been enacted this year, a record topped only by the unprecedented 92 laws last year. !" Most states — 41 — ban abortion after a certain stage of pregnancy, generally around 20 weeks, unless the mother’s life or health is in danger. In many of those states, the bans are based on a challenged premise that fetuses that early can feel pain. !" Pre-abortion counseling is required in 35 states; 26 require waiting periods after counseling, and in 13 states, the counseling must warn women about alleged risks from abortion.

States within the nation’s most restrictive region, the midsection, include North and South Dakota, which each have only one abortion clinic and have seen the number of abortions drop slightly since 2008.

Although the austerity program has had some modest successes — the country’s deficit has dropped slightly — the U.K. economy has shrunk for three consecutive quarters amid cuts at home and economic turmoil on the continent.

Thefts of cellphones, smartphones rising rapidly nationwide

By Terry Collins Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — In this tech-savvy city teeming with commuters and tourists, the cellphone has become a top target of robbers who use stealth, force and sometimes guns.

Nearly half of all robberies in San Francisco this year are cellphone-related, police say, and most occur on bustling transit lines.

One thief recently snatched a smartphone while sitting right behind his unsuspecting victim and darted out the rear of a bus in mere seconds.

Another robber grabbed an iPhone from an oblivious bus rider — while she was still talking.

And, in nearby Oakland, City Council candidate Dan Kalb was robbed at gunpoint of his iPhone Wednesday after he attended a neighborhood anti-crime meeting.

These brazen incidents are part of a ubiquitous crime wave striking coast to coast. New York City police report that more than 40 percent of all robberies now involve cellphones.

And cellphone thefts in Los Angeles, which account for more than a quarter of all

the city’s robberies, are up 27 percent from this time a year ago, police said.
