Supervisors approve comp board’s proposal Union County attorney and sheriff receive 5.5 percent pay increase, all other elected officials earn 5 percent ■

By JAKE WADDINGHAM

CNA staff reporter jwaddingham@crestonnews.com

The Union County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the 2014 compensation board’s recommendation for the upcoming fiscal budget.

“It is the board of supervisor’s

responsibility to the other elected officials to make sure, within reason, that they are provided with adequate resources to fullfill their responsibilities with the interest of Union County, as a whole, being everyone’s first priority,” said chairman Dennis Brown.

The compensation board proposed and supervisors approved a

3.5 percent wage adjustment for Union County Attorney Tim Kenyon and Sheriff Rick Piel, as well as a 3 percent wage adjustment for Brown Auditor Sandy Hysell, Recorder Paula White, Treasurer Kelly Busch and the board of supervisors.

Supervisors also approved an additional 2 percent cost-of-living increase. The raises only impact nonunion employees and elected

officials.

“A good rule of thumb is that Iowa’s elected county officials’ pay should mirror the population ranking of their county,” Brown said. “Union County does not.”

Union County is 61st in Iowa’s population ranking, but ranks 79th in elected official pay.

The supervisors, recorder, auditor, sheriff and treasurer all fall below 61st for pay compared to other Iowa counties. Kenyon is ranked 47th.

The compensation board is limited by Iowa Code 331.907. It can only review the compensation of

other elected officials across Iowa or similar taxing entities such as high schools, colleges, hospital or city government.

“If I have any credibility in regards to this, I will tell anyone that they are getting their money’s worth and then some from these folks,” Brown said. “One doesn’t have to reach back too far in Iowa history to show how important it is to have good, quality people holding elected positions.”

Study shows divorces rise as United States economy recovers (MCT) — Married couples promise to stick together for better or worse. But as the U.S. economy started to rebound, so did the divorce rate.

Divorces plunged when the recession struck and slowly started to rise as the recovery began, according to a study to be published in Population Research and

Policy Review.

From 2009 to 2011, about 150,000 fewer divorces occurred than would otherwise have been expected, University of Maryland sociologist Philip N. Cohen estimated.

Across the country, the divorce rate among married women dropped from 2.09 percent to 1.95 percent from 2008 to 2009, then crept back

up to 1.98 percent in both 2010 and 2011.

The National Marriage Project earlier dubbed the drop in divorce “a silver lining” to the Great Recession, arguing that tough times were pulling many husbands and wives closer together.

But some couples may have simply put off divorce until they could afford to part, re-

searchers say. The economic uptick may have finally given them the freedom to split.

“This is exactly what happened in the 1930s,” said Johns Hopkins University sociologist Andrew Cherlin.

“The divorce rate dropped during the Great Depression Please see STUDY, Page 2

New moon makes rare second appearance twice this year OTTUMWA (MCT) — Is there a name for the inverse of the Blue Moon, a month in which there are two new moons? It’s a good question to be asking because it will happen not just once, but twice in 2014.

Dr. Steven Spangler, an astronomy professor at the University of Iowa, says no.

But it is unusual.

“This year, what’s happening is we had a new moon on the first of January, New Year’s Day, and then on January 30,” he said. “Then again on March 1 and March 30. That’s really rare.”

So rare, in fact, that when first asked about it Spangler thought, “this can’t happen at all.”

The lunar calendar and the

one we use to mark the year are related, but not precisely. Calendar months have 30 or 31 days most of the time.

February is the odd one with 28 or 29 days, depending on the year. The lunar cycle, called the synodic period, takes 29.5 days, so it’s offset just a bit from the monthly calendar.

“Pick any one phase of the

moon and the period of time between one phase and the next time is shorter than the calendar month,” Spangler said.

The result is that phases of the moon meander through the year. The first full moon of 2014 was Jan. 16. By the Please see MOON, Page 2

Bounty hunters will have a chance at earning money this year with the renewed bounty on gopher feet.

“We’ve had this bounty since I’ve been here,” said Sandy Hysell, Union County auditor. “I started in 1989, so it’s even been before me.”

The bounty may have some historical significance.

Gophers are small tunnelling animals and considered pests in North America. The tunnels disrupt commercial agriculture, garden plots, underground cables and landscaping.

“I think it used to be more popular than it actually is now,” said Union County Supervisor Ron Riley. “In alfalfa fields and hay fields in this area, they got to be such a problem that quite a few years ago, they put a bounty on them to alleviate the pest. ... I know there’s not near the issue as there used to be, but we continue to keep the bounty on them for those who continue to trap Hysell them.”

The bounty consists of $1 for one pair of front feet per gopher.

Hysell counts the pairs brought in, and gives the customer a receipt for the amount of money based on the number of pairs.

“We don’t get them hardly ever,” Hysell said. “I mean, when Riley I started, it seemed like at least one or two people would bring in a huge coffee can full.”

Hysell said she recommends freezing the feet before taking them to the Union County Auditor’s office to avoid the smell. After counting them, the feet are destroyed.

“I get my paper towel out, and we dump them out.

I’m counting, trying not to barf on the counter,” Hysell said. “And then, I wad them up and put them back in the can, and I call Paul, our custodian, and say, ‘Do something with this.’ We disinfect the counter and give him (the customer) a receipt, he goes to the treasurer’s office and he gets his money.”

Hysell said she hasn’t received gopher feet in several years, and the last receipt she gave to a customer added up to more than $10. She also said there are no other animal bounties in Union County.

However, according to Riley, there isn’t much use for the bounty anymore.

“Best I can answer is we’ve had one as long as I can remember,” Riley said. “We did discuss that (the use). It’s something we could discuss discontinuing.”

Deaths Dennis Cooper Bedford

Dennis Cooper, 65, of Bedford died Jan. 25, 2014, at his home, after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

Cooper Celebration of life memorial services will be 11 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 30, at the United Christian Presbyterian Church in Bedford. Visitation will be 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesday with family present 5 to 7 p.m. at Ritchie Funeral Home, 1406 Madison Ave., Bedford. Memorials may be given to pancreatic cancer research or Ronald McDonald House.

Online condolences may be left at www.ritchiefuneralhome.com.

Dennis Ray Cooper, son of Ann Katherin (Krohmer) and Dale Marion Cooper, was born July 13, 1948, at Clarinda Hospital.

After graduating from Clearfield High School, he went to universal trade school in Omaha, Neb., to train in auto mechanics.

On July 9, 1967, Dennis married Connie Sue Sobotka.

Randy Tetrick Hartford, Wis.

Randy Tetrick, 53, of Hartford, Wis., formerly of Omaha Neb., died Jan. 24, 2014.

Funeral services will be Friday, Jan. 31, in Hartford, Wis. Online condolences may be left at shimonfuneralhome.com.

Dennis served nearly seven years in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War, where he spent many hours in flight as crew chief of a KC135 fuel tanker. Upon his honorary discharge, he returned to Iowa with his family.

Dennis was manager of a Skelly gas station in Red Oak, a city mail carrier for 27 years in Bedford and farmer in the Clearfield and Bedford areas for more than 35 years.

Dennis is survived by his wife Connie Cooper of Bedford; children and grandchildren, Jackie (Peter) CooperBennett, Aidan and Noah, of Milton Keynes, England; Wendy (Matt) Poore, Danielle and Kirsten, of Huntley, Illinois; Darcie (Neil) Cooper, Sadie and Nate, of Cameron, Mo.; and Devan Cooper of Denver, Colo.; parents, Dale and Ann Cooper of Lenox; brother David (Deb) Cooper of Saint Louis, Mo.; sisters, Sandee (Chuck) Dickenson of Saint Charles and Sheryl (Butch) Newton of Skidmore, Mo; motherin-law Venita Schmidt of Hot Springs, Ark.; sister-inlaw Karen (Mike) Schaefer of Maloy, brother-inlaw Duane Sobotka of Hot Springs, Ark.; and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.

Randy is survived by his wife Veronica (Dunfee) Tetrick and daughters, Tiffany Tetrick and Natalie Tetrick, all of Hartford, Wis.; brothers, Scott, Mike, Tom and Paul; father- and mother-inlaw, Ed and Marvel (Dunfee) Herrmann; sister-in-law Roxanne Dunfee and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

formation regarding the purchase of two new mower tractors. The equipment would be on lease for five years with annual payments of about $11,750 and an interest rate of 4 percent.

Supervisors plan to hold a public meeting in regard to the purchase of the new equipment on Feb. 3. Akes said they plan to sell the old tractors at auction.

• Union County resident Karon Finn spoke at open forum. She raised concerns about the way she was treated while trying to obtain public information from the auditor’s office.

She requested a written apology and promise it will not happen again within 11 days. Brown agreed to respond within the 11 days.

end of the year it will peak earlier in the month, arriving on Dec. 6.

If things line up just right, you wind up with two new moons in a month. The same goes for full moons or any other phase. And since the second new moon of January takes place just before February (the only month that closely matches up with the lunar cycle) begins, the same thing will happen in March.

The multiple months with multiple new moons isn’t the only thing drawing attention.

The sun is also much quieter than usual. While the light we notice doesn’t vary all that much, the sun’s activity does.

“The sun has a heartbeat of about 11 years,” Spangler said. “It’s like a human heartbeat. There’s variation to it.”

Such variations in activity have been observed in other sun-like stars. Spangler said it appears to be “a basic property of middle-aged stars.”

Solar weather, which can produce flares and massive explosions called coronal mass ejections, tends to pick up at the peak of the 11-year cycle. But that’s not happening right now. We’re at or near the peak, and there’s just not much going on.

“The present maximum is low. The previous minimum

was really low,” said Spangler.

But something else is happening, too. There appears to be a multi-decadal cycle in the sun’s activity. In 1958, the solar maximum was about three-and-a-half times as busy as it is now. The maximums have declined since.

Why? Spangler said there really isn’t a good answer.

“We don’t know what causes that.”

The lack of activity has led to some speculation that this could mirror the start of the Maunder Minimum, a period of extraordinarily low solar activity. If the 11-year cycle is a mood swing from a middleaged star, the Maunder Minimum was a full-blown midlife crisis.

The minimum had profound effects on the Earth, where temperatures dropped enough to give the period the nickname, “The Little Ice Age.” But speculation that solar activity could be leading into a similar lull is just that right now: speculation.

Spangler puts little faith in it. Predicting solar activity is tricky. The best models from 2006 predicted an unusually active solar maximum, a prediction we now know was way off the mark.

had no apparent effect on divorce rates; other research examining earlier periods has found the opposite. Cohen did find that joblessness seemed to cut down divorce for college graduates — but statewide foreclosures pushed up divorce rates for the same group. More research is needed to understand why, he wrote.

“There still is a mystery,” Pew Research Center senior writer D’Vera Cohn wrote in an email to the Los Angeles Times. “It is enormously tempting to say that bad economic times made that happen, but this new paper concludes that the jury is still out.”

Cherlin said downturns seemed to affect divorce

timing, not whether couples divorced at all. While economic woes might sway a couple to put off divorce during a recession, spouses might not bother waiting if they don’t see their financial problems as temporary, he said.

During the review process, Hysell estimated the total impact of the wage increase and cost-of-living would be around $36,000.

In other county news: • Union County Engineer Steve Akes presented a five-year secondary roads construction program for the Iowa Department of Transportation.

Projects in the program can be moved around as other conditions arise, but it helps Akes and supervisors highlight what bridges or roads are in need of attention.

OPINION

Creston Schools study learning with technology In recent times many school districts have expanded their provision of technology to students dramatically, even to the level of one digital device for every student. This one-to-one approach has yielded some very positive results in some schools and has flopped in others.

Why? In Creston Schools we believe it is important to find the various answers to that and other related questions. Our board of education, staff, parents, community members and students have all shown a strong collective interest in improved learning through technology, but what are the best routes to take toward this goal?

Recently our DLC (District

From the desk of Steve McDermott Creston Superintendent

Leadership Council — a group made up of teachers and administrators) has begun a search for the very best instructional practices utilizing technology today. With the help of Stephanie Mikkelsen, technology integration specialist from Green Hills AEA, our DLC members will be visiting high-performing, high-flying teachers and students at other Iowa schools, seeking outstanding examples of learning with tech.

Our primary focus will continue

to be improved instruction and learning. Our focus will not be limited to the newest device or digital toy available. We will also watch for ideas we can implement with the technology that already exists in our schools.

So far we have learned a few key lessons related to tech and learning. We have learned from others that buying a truckload of electronic devices and dumping them onto a school with no preparation is a recipe for frustration and failure. Staff development on the best ways to teach with digital tools, carefully prepared policies related to the use and care of the new machinery, and parent and student involvement all along the way are key parts of a successful tech ex-

pansion.

We also realize that learning targets must be clearly established before determining what tech devices, programs, or applications should be purchased. What do we hope students will learn with the help of technology? What are we shooting for? Wonderful, seemingly limitless learning experiences can be generated with the support of digital devices. But a device is only a tool and is not a teacher.

The whole process of student learning general functions best with adult supervision and guidance. This remains the same when technology comes into play both at school and at home.

We have also begun to come to terms with the fact that a teacher is

no longer the sole source of all information, knowledge, and learning. When it comes to technology and its effective use, teachers and students are learning, exploring, and growing side by side. We have reached a point where we are often trying to catch up with our students! In order to prepare our kids to succeed in their world in the future, we must “gear up” our instructional methods and respond to the changes created by the explosion of technology and accompanying digital language. We plan to do this as thoughtfully and strategically as possible so our local youngsters will receive the best learning experiences we can provide.

President Obama will give his State of the Union address HOLLYWOOD — God bless America, and how’s everybody?

President Obama will give his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress tonight.

The wind is strongly at his back.

In his first term, Congress gave him a standing ovation for killing bin Laden, and he can expect no less tonight after capturing Justin Bieber.

The Tonight Show will move from Burbank to its new NBC studio in New York in three weeks.

It’s a far more sophisticated city.

If you walk into the nicest restaurant in Burbank and ask them for a table with a view, they sit you down and leave the ladies room door open.

Justin Bieber stood somberly before his judge in Miami Thursday at arraignment. He was charged with drunk driving, driving under the influence of drugs and racing in a residential neighborhood. If convicted he could get four-to-eight years as mayor of Toronto.

Florida prosecutors debated whether Justin Bieber could be de-

ported to Canada after his arrest for drunk driving in Miami Beach.

That won’t happen. For starters, Canada is denying that he’s Canadian on the grounds that his blood alcohol was barely over the limit.

Hawaii’s huge winter waves drew the world’s finest surfers to Maui Friday despite the surge in shark attacks on surfers. When they see sharks approaching on top of the water all they can do is lie still on their board. Surfers are the first to learn that adrenaline is brown.

President Obama in his State of the Union will announce new NSA guidelines to guard against unconstitutional snooping. They are strict. The NSA can no longer violate your privacy rights and glean your personal information, that job has been outsourced to Target.

Letters to the editor

Thank you Stephani Finley From Marcia Fulton Creston

This city would be remiss if not to extend the most hardy “thank you” to the retiring managing editor of the Creston News Advertiser, Stephani Finley.

This woman has been one of the most ethical and fair-minded print media individuals in which I have come into contact. Stephani tried hard to make sure that all

sides were given fair access on controversial issues. This is not always easy in a small town with very strong feelings on local issues. I, for one, will miss her. But in all things, there is a time and a season and her season of change has come.

I am encouraged in the promotion of Kyle Wilson to this position. I watched Kyle report on the supervisors meetings during a very trying time in this commu-

nity and found his reporting to be accurate and fair. It is a very big shoe he is stepping into but I am sure he will do his upmost to continue the fair and balanced reputation of his predecessor. I know we all wish him well as he grows in the job, and we wish Stephani “wind at her back and fair skies above” in her new life.

Sleep in Monday, Stephani.

That is the best thing about retirement.

Food for Life report for 2013 From Ruby Stephens Shannon City

We received 7 1/2 beef donations, bought 500 pounds of ground meat.

Matura is so good about sending me reports each month and during 2013 they have served 715 families, which includes 1,712 individuals, with meat.

The Creston Christmas basket has paid for most of the meat processing cost.

Money donations have paid for

the meat we have bought.

Food for Life started in May 1983 by Platte Center Presbyterian Church, a small rural church whose membership consists mostly of farm families. The farms then were most diversified, with both livestock and grain production. What a change has happened in 30 years.

Soon after it was started, other churches in Union County wanted to help, and we now have a board of members representing seven churches.

The helping hands symbol was

drawn up by one of our members and those helping hands are still helping our friends and neighbors, who for whatever reason, have fallen on hard times, we are here to help.

We now supply meat to three food pantries in Union County: Matura food pantry on Elm Street in Creston, Afton Methodist Church and Lorimor Methodist Church.

Thank you from Food for Life.

Your helping hands are God’s helping hands.

We like to hear from you!

Coins before bills?

Dear Heloise: At work recently, a grumpy gentleman told me that when I return change to customers, I should give them the COIN CHANGE FIRST, then the paper money. Although he could have told me nicely, I could see his point. Coins could slip out of someone’s hand if placed on top of the paper money. — A Reader, via email Ah, yes, the return-change question! Everyone is different, so don’t take offense. Just smile and say, “How would you like your change?” Some want it on the counter; some, coins first, then paper money; others, paper money, then change.

I’ve covered this before in the column — let’s do an update! Readers, what do you have to say? — Heloise CHECK ORDER Dear Readers: Many of us (Heloise Central included) place orders for delivery, especially pizza! How often have you placed an order and sensed that the total bill was wrong? Here is a Heloise hint for when in doubt: Go online (if possible) to double-check the order’s accuracy by placing the same order. A total comes up, which allows you to see what you ordered and what the total is. Now you can

Panthers pull away from Roadrunners in second half

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

The Creston girls basketball team scored more points in the third quarter than it did in the first half here at Southwestern Community College on Monday, pulling away from Interstate 35 in the second half of a 4532 win.

The Panthers trailed the Roadrunners 17-15 at halftime, but scored 16 points in the third quarter while holding Interstate 35 to just nine points.

Creston got big plays out of Jenna Taylor, Chelcee Downing and Taylor Briley in the third quarter.

Downing scored seven of her 14 points in the quarter. She converted a layup off a steal, hit a pullup jump- Downing er and knocked down a 3-pointer in the quarter.

“That’s what we’ve kind of been needing — someone to step up,” head coach Larry McNutt said. “We don’t have to make a ton of threes, but if we can make one or two, it just loosens everything up inside for us. We don’t have to make threes, we can hit 17, 18-footers. Taylor hit one of them tonight.”

Briley’s 17-footer capped off a quick 8-0 run by the Panthers that extended their lead to 29-24. Meanwhile, Taylor hit a jumper and got an offensive rebound and putback in the quarter.

Taylor scored a gamehigh 18 points for the Panthers to go with her nine rebounds — seven of which were of- Taylor fensive rebounds.

“She got some nice offensive rebounds,” McNutt said. “We got some penetration and got her the ball around the basket. The other girls did a good job of getting her the ball.”

The Panthers outrebounded Interstate 35 by a 32-15 margin. Natalie Mostek led the Panthers with 11 rebounds.

It was an impressive feat against a Roadrunner team that features 6-1 freshman Gracey Griglione, who has recorded a pair of tripledoubles this year and averages 8.8 rebounds per game.

Fellow Interstate 35 freshman post player Riley Morris averages 8.3 rebounds per game. Morris was held to just five rebounds, while Griglione pulled down just two.

Griglione matched her season scoring output with 13 points to lead the Roadrunners, but after scoring seven of Interstate 35’s first nine points, was held to just four points in the second half. Freshman guard Slye Richardson, who averages 11.7 points per game, managed just three points.

“I thought we were, after the first quarter, pretty good defensively for the most part,” McNutt said.

“I thought the girls played hard and were trying to do the right things. We handled

their fullcourt pressure.”

The Panthers forced 14 turnovers for the game, many of which came in the second half when they pulled away from the Roadrunners.

“That’s what we need to do,” McNutt said. “We need to be really good defensively and be decent on offense.

Then we have a chance. Especially in that second half, Taylor did a good job of getting into passing lanes. Our posts had to go outside and play on the perimeter tonight, and I thought we did a pretty good job.”

Creston had a good night from the foul line, as well.

The Panthers shot 9-of10 from the charity stripe, holding Interstate 35 off when the Roadrunners tried to extend the game by fouling.

The win improved the Panthers to 6-10 for the season, while the Roadrunners drop to 11-5.

Southwestern women avenge loss at Simpson

Contributed photo by ALEX DUFFY

J’myrehea Douglas (23) puts up a shot in the lane for Southwestern Saturday against Marshalltown Community College. Douglas had eight points and seven rebounds in the Spartans’ 84-54 loss.

INDIANOLA — Monday was bounce-back night for the Southwestern women’s basketball team.

After an 84-54 home conference loss to Marshalltown Communoity College Saturday afternoon, the Spartans traveled to Simpson JV Monday and avenged an earlier defeat, beating the Storm 59-52 to improve to 4-16 for the season.

Rebounding from a subpar offensive performance Saturday, Darian Polson led a balanced Southwestern offense Monday with 15 points, including a 3-pointer. Morgan Knorr added 14 points and Jill Vanderhoof and Peyton Russell each tallied 10 to give Southwestern four players in double figures.

“We started a little slow, but then we started to play a little more aggressive and got some stops on the defensive end,” coach Addae Please see SWCC, page 10A

Bulldogs gain fourth victory ORIENT — It was played out earlier than scheduled, but nonetheless it was a successful Bluegrass Conference tournament consolation game for the Orient-Macksburg Bulldogs Monday night.

Avenging an earlier defeat, O-M beat MelcherDallas, 76-54. The game was played at 6 p.m. rather than 7:30 p.m., because the site of the originally-scheduled early game between Seymour and Moulton-Udell was changed.

“Those two teams didn’t want to come clear over here on such a cold night, so they played that game at Seymour,” O-M coach Drew Dornack said. Moulton-

Udell won that contest, 5248.

Monday’s victory improved the Bulldogs to 4-8 for the season, after gaining just one victory a year ago. The tables were turned from a 72-47 loss to MelcherDallas in the Bulldogs’ first Bluegrass Conference game after many years in the nowdefunct Rolling Hills Conference.

Dornack said circumstances were much different for that early-season game, including limited availability of Chantz Davidson

Davidson, who scored 30 points Monday night.

“Jordan Thompson had just come off meniscus surgery and probably played two minutes in that first game,” Dornack said.

“Chantz had just come out, so he hadn’t been at many practices and only played a few minutes. Tonight he was scoring inside well and in the back of the press they kind of forgot about him. He uses his body well and works really hard.”

Freshman guard Dylan Nichols also sparked the offense with two 3-pointers and a total of 10 points. Jesse Please see BULLDOGS, page 10A

JUNIOR VARSITY Just like in the varsity game, the Creston JV team pulled away from Interstate 35 in the second half on Monday, winning 49-37.

The Panthers took a 26-21 lead into halftime, but held a 39-28 lead at the end of the third quarter.

“It was a good battle back and forth, but the girls

worked hard together and came together as a team to pull off the win,” Creston JV coach Mendy McCreight said. “We had lots of girls score tonight, which is nice to see. Our defense created a lot of turnovers that we were able to convert into points, which helped us stay ahead.”

The Panthers improved to 9-8 for the season with the win.

Caitlin McIlravy led a balanced scoring effort with

12 points to go with her team-high five steals. Cammy Rutherford and Sadie Jones both scored in double figures, scoring 10 points apiece.

Panther bowlers split with Shenandoah

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

It was another mixed day for the Creston/OrientMacksburg bowling teams here Saturday, as the Panthers split with Shenandoah in a Hawkeye 10 Conference matchup.

The boys posted a 26052411 victory over the Mustangs thanks in large part to a strong Baker Rotation.

Meanwhile, the girls fell 2311-2230 as the Fillies outscored the Panthers by 69 pins in the Baker Rotation.

“Today (Saturday) against Shenandoah was once again a mixed bag of excitement, frustration, satisfaction and disappointment,” head coach Ron Pendegraft said. “Scores for the boys were better today. The team total was our highest since early in the season. However, we did have a couple of individual scores in the first game that were uncharacteristically low.”

Blake Eddy led the way for the Panther boys, rolling games of 200 and 191 for a two-game total of 391. Brett Cheers nearly matched Eddy with his games of 189 and Cheers 201 for a total score of 390.

Chantz Davidson finished with a score of 341, while Reece Kramer bowled a 332 and Darin Hatfield rounded out the team scoring with his two-game score of 327.

The Panther boys held an 81-pin lead over the Mustangs after round one, but pulled away in the Baker Rotation.

Creston/O-M rolled two Baker games over 200 and outscored

Shenandoah by another 113 pins in the Baker Rotation.

“For the boys in the Baker round, I would have thought there were two different teams bowling for us,” Pendegraft said. “In the first, fourth and fifth games, we couldn’t get it going. But in the second and third games, we couldn’t miss. Overall though, it ended well and we came away with a muchwelcomed 194-pin win.”

The Panther girls trailed Shenandoah by 12 pins after round one, but lost ground in the Baker Rotation as the Fillies outscored Creston/OM by 69 pins.

Devon Eddy led the Panthers once a g a i n with her two-game score of 363, followed by Charley Parcher’s Eddy total of 317. Jenna Hayes bowled a score of 287 and Aly Downey contributed a 281. Madison Hance rounded out the team scoring with a score of 268.

“Round one started off very well, but in the second game we cooled off a little bit,” Pendegraft said. “In Bakers, Shenandoah turned it on and we couldn’t keep pace.”

Creston/O-M returns to action Saturday against Central Decatur at Pine Valley.

JV The Panther JV teams both bowled with just four bowlers on Saturday, having to take zero scores for their fifth positions.

“In spite of that, the kids did well and I was proud of how they stuck with it and gave a very good effort,” Pendegraft said.

Sebastian Peterson led the JV boys with a 289 series and Ashley Knipfer led the

way for the girls with a 276.

Spartan men end skid

Area girls basketball

Wayne 43, The Southwestern men well in the second half, and petitive game and it’s good East Union 32

snapped a six-game losing streak with a strong second half at home Friday night against Grand View University JV. After trailing 28-27 at halftime, the Spartans outscored the Vikings 37-27 in the second half for a 64-55 victory.

Mataika Koyamainavure and Elliott Hamdeed were Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside, respectively, with 17 points each. Four S p a r t a n s Hamdeed ended up in double figures as Tanner Kellogg dropped in 12 points and Jared Theis added 11.

“Our offensive crispness wasn’t real sharp in the first half,” SWCC coach Mike Holmes said. “We were cutting half-speed, not really thinking. We did pretty

defensively we were pretty good throughout the game, taking away what we wanted to take away.”

Sophomore guard Larry Mason had a solid overall game with nine rebounds, four assists and three points.

Nick Lenhard has stepped in at point guard and provided good defense, Holmes said.

He had two steals Friday.

Former ADM forward Ben Larson scored seven points for Grand View.

A big difference in Friday’s game was at the free throw line. Southwestern was 17-of-19 while the Vikings struggled at 5-of-13.

Grand View had defeated the Spartans (8-12) on a buzzer-beater earlier in the season in Des Moines.

The Spartans had not won since a Dec. 14 home game against Clinton.

“We had been getting smacked around a little bit, so this helps,” Holmes said.

“Grand View has some nice athletes. It was a good, com-

to get a win. We improved our scoring, which we need against Iowa Lakes Saturday because they have one of the premier players in the league.”

Iowa Lakes guard Deondre Parks is a South Dakota State recruit. Southwestern’s national placewinning volleyball team will be honored at halftime of the 3 p.m. game Saturday.

The Cardinals led 19-14 at the end of the first quarter, and held a 32-25 lead at halftime.

But Nodaway Valley responded with a 23-8 advantage in the third quarter.

8-2.

Nodaway Valley improved to 9-6 overall and 8-3 in the conference.

“The girls took a big step in defining who they are tonight,” head coach Tom Thompson said.

WASHINGTON (MCT) — A year ago, when President Barack Obama delivered his State of Union speech before Congress and imagined providing preschool for all 4-year-olds, he followed his expansive vision with a bit of candor. “That’s something we should be able to do,” he said.

The president’s tone — more aspirational than expectant — was a nod to the reality of this annual Washington ritual. Little of what the president proposes in his most high-profile speech of the year is likely to get done, at least not any time soon.

As Obama polishes a fresh list of ideas to tick off Tuesday night, many of last year’s proposals remain unfinished — stymied by politically divided Washington.

His gun-control push has petered out. His immigration overhaul is stuck in the Republican-led House. Congress has not heeded his call to raise the minimum wage.

And, in the year since his speech, neither the House nor the Senate, where his party is in control, has even held

seem to fade quickly.

The president wants to work with Congress, Pfeiffer wrote over the weekend in an email to supporters, but “will not wait for Congress.”

Obama made similar pledges to flex his executive muscle in last year’s speech and spent the last few weeks making good on some. He named five “promise zones,” impoverished areas that received top priority for federal money. He awarded a research project in North Carolina millions of dollars, as part of his goal of creating a network of manufacturing innovation centers. He accepted a report on voting reform from a commission he had touted.

On Tuesday, he will announce new initiatives, which the White House has declined to discuss. “He’ll certainly aim high,” Carney said. “Presidents ought to aim high. I don’t think any president has ever gone before Congress and said, ‘I hope to do this, this, this and this with you that year’ and, at the end of the year, discovered that his list was too short, that everything got done.”

Still, the status of past proposals offers a glimpse of the prospects for success. Most initiatives Obama can push on his own are incremental,

while most large-scale proposals move at glacial pace, or not at all.

Republicans on Capitol Hill are no more likely this year than last to endorse expensive programs — even in the name of job creation.

They have shown little interest in minimum-wage legislation; bills that would raise it to more than $10 per hour have drawn no Republican co-sponsors.

The first year in the life of Obama’s preschool plan illustrates the nature of the hurdles ahead. Although

GOP governors have moved to expand public preschool and polls show such efforts are popular, the launch of the federal effort was slow and sputtering.

The White House proposed paying to make preschool available to 4-yearolds in nearly all low- and moderate-income families with a 94-cent tobacco tax, an idea spurned by lawmakers from both parties. “I was happy to see they at least had some sort of plan for paying for this. It was in itself a bold statement,” said Lisa Guern-

sey, director of the early education initiative at the New America Foundation. “But in reality the idea of raising a tax to pay for this was met with a lot of silence.”

The bill took months to draft and, even then, did not include a way to pay for it.

But the budget bill passed earlier this month included $250 million to help states expand preschool programs.
