FAREWELL, BUCKY

Iowa driver pulled over by suspected police impersonator DES MOINES (AP) — Polk County police say a man suspected of impersonating a police officer stopped a female driver.

Local media outlets report a driver contacted police Tuesday after she was pulled over by an unmarked white sedan with a black push bumper and red and blue emergency lights.

She said a man told her that she was speeding and asked her to get out of her vehicle so he could search it.

The driver was suspicious of the man so she told him that she was going to call 911 and request another officer. The suspect then returned to his car and left.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident.

G

ary Bucklin’s 30-year career as sports director at KSIB Radio in Creston comes to an end today.

His final sportscast was heard from 11 a.m. to noon this morning.

“The old horse is leaving the barn,” Bucklin laughed Wednesday. “But, I take with me so many memories and have had such satisfaction working with coaches, athletic directors, athletes, parents and co-workers at KSIB over the years.”

Bucklin said Wednesday his love of announcing and connecting with people through the airwaves can be traced back to his childhood.

He received his first big “gig” announcing the fourth-grade talent show in his hometown of Bayard, and his first job was driving the streets of Bayard in a speaker car announcing the grand opening for a local gas station.

It didn’t take Bucklin long after that to realize he was a fit for radio. He received higher education at Career Academy in Milwaukee, Wis., and his first broadcasting job was at KOUR in Independence in 1966 where he worked for nearly a decade — leaving the station once to serve in the Air Force during the Vietnam War. In 1974, KOUR wanted to expand their play-by-play high school sports coverage. So, they Rima placed an advertisement for a parttime sports broadcaster and 19-yearold Gary Rima inquired about the position.

“I had no business getting into the business,” Rima said Wednesday. “I had no training and no degree. When I inquired, they told me to send a spec

tape to the station. I didn’t have one so I went to a JV football game that night, sat on the top bleachers and recorded play-by-play on a tape recorder.”

Rima remembers sitting at the dinner table later that night playing the recording for his father.

“I played about 5 minutes worth for him. I knew it was terrible, and Dad

HOUSTON (AP) — Officials are closely monitoring the levels of rivers in Texas engorged by the deluge of last weekend.

The Colorado River in Wharton and the Brazos and San Jacinto Rivers near Houston were the focus of attention as floodwaters from North and Central Texas moved downstream toward the Gulf of Mexico.

Meanwhile, the death toll continued to rise as search teams hunted through debris piles along rivers that raged through Central Texas and the Houston area. Bodies found in Hays and Blanco counties raised the confirmed death toll Thursday to at least 24, with 20 in Texas alone, and at least 14 more missing.

The flood threat appeared to have eased along the Brazos River in North Texas, where it fell below flood stage Thursday night at Horseshoe Bend, some 40 miles southwest of Fort Worth.

But officials were watching for any effects from Thursday night rains further north in the vicinity of Possum Kingdom Lake, said Parker County Emergency Management spokesman Joel Kertok.

The river level at Horseshoe Bend fell below the 21foot flood stage to 20.9 feet Thursday night after the Brazos River Authority closed the floodgates on the Possum Kingdom dam dozens of miles upstream, Kertok said. The river crested at 23.6 feet about noon Thursday, almost 3 feet above flood stage, and Kertok said floodwaters lapped at the foundations of 11 homes but rose no further before beginning to recede.

But the worst is yet to come downstream on the Brazos. At Richmond, 30 miles southwest of Houston, where flood stage is 48 feet, the National Weather Service expected the river to top flood stage Friday morning and rise to 50 feet by late Friday night or Saturday.

That would cause major flooding in Simonton, upstream from Richmond, and Thompsons downstream. Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls says some residents of Simonton have been asked to leave.

The Colorado River at Wharton, where voluntary evacuations were underway in the city’s low-lying west side, was at 39.5 feet Thursday night, a half-foot over flood stage. Forecasters say it could crest at 44 to 45 feet Saturday morning, causing major flooding.

believed in me back in 1974.

It was a lucky break and I fell in love with radio pretty quick.”

Bucklin trained Rima for a full year — impressing on him the importance of being prepared, getting to games early for setup, being accurate with names, not embelishing, but still bringing excitement to the fans and painting a picture for the listeners.

Rima became sports director at KOUR in 1975 when Bucklin left the station to work in the retail sector.

Rima has been in the radio business ever since and has become one of the best broadcast journalists in the state of Iowa coving University of Northern Iowa football and men’s basketball as the “Voice of the Panthers” for more than 20 years.

Creston job Bucklin still had the “radio bug” in 1985 when an opportunity surfaced to become a sports broadcaster at KSIB Radio in Creston.

It’s here, in Creston, that Bucklin raised his family with his wife Joanne and built a successful career covering prep sports. Coaches say Bucklin has always put in the extra hours necessary over the past 30 years to recognize the athletes and coaches of southwest Iowa.

Nobody has valued Bucklin’s committment to that cause more than longtime Lenox football coach A l l e n Dukes and longtime Nodaway Valley athletic director Dave Dukes Huff.

Dukes first met Bucklin in 1997 when he arrived as football coach at Lenox and over the years he’s been impressed with the way Bucklin fairly covers all nine high schools in his coverage area.

“He’s from Creston,” Dukes said, “but that doesn’t matter when he comes to your community. If he’s in Lenox covering a game, he’s a Tiger.

If he’s in Mount Ayr, he’s a Raider. It’s like that no matter what community he’s in.”

ate. Burial will be in Rose Hill Cemetery in Mount Ayr. Visitation with family present will White be from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. service time Monday at the funeral home.

A memorial fund has been

established in his name to be decided later. Online condolences may be left at www. watsonarmstrongfh.com.

Jeffrey Lynn White, son of Imogene (Eastland) and Raymond C. White, was born Oct. 3, 1962, in Omaha, Neb. Jeff graduated from Mount Ayr High School in 1981. Jeff worked for his father at the family body shop and at Andy Johnson Chevrolet in Mount

Ayr. He also worked at the sale barn.

Jeff is survived by his mother Imogene White of Mount Ayr; brother Rodney White of Mount Ayr; nieces, Brandy Barton, Sandy White and Amelia Baker; and great-nieces, Haley Barton, Larissa Barton and Abby Baker.

Jeff was preceded in death by his father.

Dukes commented that Bucklin “doesn’t know a stranger” and when he arrives to a game he talks with the athletes on a first name basis. He added Bucklin has also made connections with community members over the years.

“He will come to Lenox for a football game and half the community will talk with him before he gets to the crow’s nest to settle in for the game,” Dukes said.

The extra time Huff has had a similar experience with Bucklin. He said when Nodaway Valley won the boys state basketball championship in 2006, Bucklin not only covered every game on the tournament trail that year, but was right there with the rest of the community the Sunday after the championship to attend a reception for the players and coachHuff es in the school’s gymnasium.

“He probably doesn’t know how much that meant to all of us at Nodaway Valley,” Huff said. “Here’s a guy based out of Creston coming to Greenfield on his day off to celebrate with us. He’s just a true professional, who has been willing for 30 years here to give his time and often extra time to make sure kids in our area get the recognition they deserve.”

Huff said after the reception, Bucklin gave each player an audio tape of his broadcast from their championship game against Fort Dodge St. Edmond.

“That wasn’t something he made public,” Huff said.

“He just wanted them to have something from him, from the game. He’s always giving back to those kids. He has made a big impact in his time here and will be missed by a lot of people.”

It’s those moments according to Bill Henderson — who was Bucklin’s color man for more than 25 Lenox postseason football and baseball games over the years — that have made Bucklin one of the most beloved people in southwest Iowa.

“I was struck very early on

at just how well received he was by the public everywhere we went and by a wide range of age groups,” Henderson said. “He’s a tremendous ambassador for Creston in the rural areas. He covers almost 10 schools and some times he’s the only person from Creston they have communication with regularly. He has an upbeat, positive attitude and people affiliate that with Creston. Not a lot of people understand, it could have been the other way.”

Henderson said, as one can imagine, his road trips with Bucklin were never dull and wanted to share at least one funny story.

“This is one that’s printable,” Henderson said.

Henderson said the two were driving to the UNI Dome in Cedar Falls for a Lenox state playoff football game scheduled for 10 a.m.

They were on the interstate and Bucklin — who also has a passion for classic cars — began talking to Henderson about the advantages of sythentic oil and why it’s good for transmissions and increasing gas mileage.

“He was really giving me a sermon on this,” Henderson said Wednesday, “And, when he finally takes a breath, we determined that we’d driven way past the turnoff. Boy, he snapped up and broke his neck on both sides looking around. He didn’t say another word the rest of the trip after that because we were kind of under the gun to get there.”

Henderson said the two took the next exchange and Bucklin was “white-knuckled” on the wheel while taking backdoor country all the way to the Dome.

“We made it there just in time to call the game,” Henderson said.

Remembering Oly Bucklin said he’s worked with several color guys over the years and had so many good times.

But, listeners often commented how much they liked the banter when he and the late Curt “Oly” Olsen — long-

time athletic director at Creston High School — worked games together. Olson was Bucklin’s color man for Creston/O-M football games for about five years.

“He was always enamoured with the lineman,” Bucklin said. “He never watched the ball. He would say, ‘there are my guys up front creating all the holes for those prima-donna running backs.’ He was always watching the ballgame that I wasn’t watching.

He would say so-and-so just made a good block. He wanted to give credit to those kids.

We had some good years together and I miss him dearly.”

Thank yous Bucklin said he wanted to thank Dave and Kathy Rieck for keeping KSIB local all these years. Kathy Rieck is also retiring this week after 33 years at the station. Bucklin also wanted to thank all the coaches who have have spent time talking with him over the years.

Bucklin has won several awards over the years with one of the most presigous being the Iowa High School Athletic Association Broadcaster of the Year outstanding media award in 2003. He was also inducted into the Creston High School Hall of Fame as a “distinguished contributor” in 2014.

Moving forward, the 68-year-old Bucklin said he will be doing some play-byplay work for KSIB in the future and will be hosting a couple oldies/rock and roll shows this summer.

In parting Wednesday, Bucklin said while his career in broadcasting gave him great satisfaction, that the best moments were watching his daughter Angie competing on the last girls cross Creston country team to make it to state in 1992 and watching his son Brian playing baseball for the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Taking over for Bucklin at KSIB will be the “new horse” Ryan Horvat, a 29-year-old from Chicago. Horvat will begin full-time work at KSIB in early June.

Can I quell the smell?

Dear Heloise: I got a wonderful DRESSER from a neighbor. We did not smell any cigarette smoke when we received it. We painted it and put the drawers back in. Now all we smell is a musty, yucky cigarette smell. I have used charcoal, vinegar, baking soda, sunlight, dryer sheets and soap. I am desperate. I don’t want to get rid of the dresser. Please help! — K.G., via email Hmmm. You seem to have tried the usual items that I would suggest. First, a question: Did you paint the inside of the dresser and the drawers? If not, then the exposed wood is where the smell probably is coming from. Do go back to the vinegar, but you need to wipe down all surfaces; placing a bowl of vinegar, baking soda or charcoal in the dresser is not going to kill the odor. Also, many of the odor-removing sprays for fabric do neutralize odors, so you can give that a try. The important thing to keep in mind is that you must apply the vinegar (full strength will not hurt) to all of the surfaces, including the bottom. Do this several times, allowing the wood to dry completely between applications. If you

want to do a Heloise test, use vinegar on one drawer, fabric spray on another and see which works better.

When done, try another coat of paint, and use a sealer. Hopefully this will banish that smell. Last resort? Try to mask the smell. Put some cologne or perfume on a paper towel, wipe it on the wood and let dry. It’s worth a shot.

HEALTH

5 health myths you shouldn’t believe (BPT) — Separating fact from fiction can be difficult, especially when it comes to information about your health. Cutting through the Internet clutter and opinions from friends to uncover the truth is key to keeping the mind and body well.

Dr. Jennifer Johnson, naturopathic doctor at Bastyr University School of Naturopathic Medicine, offers her expert insight into five of the most common health myths.

Myth 1: Omega-3 fatty acids increase the risk of prostate cancer.

A new study does not support the reported association between omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of prostate cancer put forth by a widely publicized 2013 study. By disputing these findings, the new study reaffirms that men can safely consume omega-3 fatty acids from dietary sources, or from supplements, and continue to reap the substantial health benefits of omega-3s. Learn more about the study at http:// goo.gl/mwKSMM. “Omega-3 fatty acids are vital to our health. They work to help lower inflam-

mation, reduce risk of developing cardiovascular disease, lower triglycerides and blood pressure, and have overall positive effects on immune and brain function,” says Johnson.

“The recent meta-analysis with respect to prostate health and fish oil does in fact show that men who take fish oil, either from dietary sources or supplements, are at no increased risk for prostate cancer.”

Johnson stresses that there is no known mechanism by which omega-3 fatty acids would increase the risk of prostate cancer.

To the contrary, there is research suggesting that omega-3 fatty acids might

inhibit prostate cancer cell growth.

Myth 2: Vitamin C prevents the common cold.

If you’re like many people, you reach for a bottle of vitamin C at the first sign of a cold. This is a good choice, as vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that boosts the immune system to fight off infection when you are sick. However, while vitamin C is a good option for treating a cold, it does not work to prevent colds before onset.

“Vitamin C has been shown to reduce the length of colds and can help treat symptoms,” says Johnson.

“Though beneficial and quite safe, vitamin C has

not been found to consistently prevent colds. If you do start to feel the sniffles, supplement with 500-1000 mg/day.”

Myth 3: Everyone should take a multivitamin each day.

Vitamins and minerals play a vital role in the normal functioning of our bodies, from skin and bone development, to brain and heart function. However, research is inconsistent when it comes to multivitamins so an individualized approach is best.

“One size does not fit all,” says Johnson. “Adding in all those nutrients in often a fairly low dose may not provide enough

therapeutic benefit to help any one problem. To really target your health concerns using vitamins, see your health care provider to determine if there is a vitamin/mineral recommendation that is just right for you. Better yet, eating more fresh fruits and vegetables will provide your body with compounds and nutrients that truly do benefit the body.”

Myth 4: Most people get adequate vitamin D through diet.

“Vitamin D is essential for bone health, and the actions of vitamin D are considered hormonal. This means that this compound truly has far-reaching effects on the body and has been shown to support immune function and improve mood,” says Johnson. “Studies show that this ‘sunny vitamin’ may also help to prevent cancer.”

When the skin is directly exposed to sunlight, vitamin D synthesis begins, explains Johnson. In order for enough vitamin D to be produced, the skin would have to be in direct sunlight most days for 20 minutes, which most people

do not experience consistently. “Supplements are a good option for getting adequate vitamin D, but make sure to check with your doctor for proper dosage. I suggest the natural vitamin D3 form,” says Johnson.

Myth 5: An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

Apples are a good source of antioxidants and beta-carotene, which are very beneficial for overall health. They are also fiber rich, which promotes gut health. But apples are just one of many effective ways to fend off a visit to the doctor.

“First, sleeping enough sets the stage for good health, as sleep is the time for repair,” says Johnson.

“Additionally, managing stress helps the immune system function best.

When the body perceives stress, immune function goes down. Stress is normal, but having a balanced life will always promote health. Rest, exercise, keeping hydrated, maintaining a positive attitude and eating a balanced diet of whole foods is the true Rx for health.”

iest Gus. That might be because just seeing a smile stimulates the brain’s reward system, and, according to U.K. researchers, a smile is more powerful a positive jolt than eating 2,000 happiness-inducing chocolate bars!

Now nutritionists are using the power of Smiley to persuade kids to choose healthier foods in school cafeterias, and that’s something to smile about! Researchers in Cincinnati found that just putting Smiley on various foods boosted vegetable purchases 62 percent, fruit 20 percent and plain milk purchases 500 percent.

So talk to your school’s lunch program about using Smiley decorations on fruits, veggies and unsweetened beverages. And at home, have your kids place Smiley stickers on serving bowls for salads, veggies and fruit, and put them on the table.

Then, don’t say a word (how nice not to have to nag); just watch what happens!

IT’S JUST A HOBBY, OR IS IT? Bonnie Raitt says that her parents would drag her out to play the guitar for visiting family and that picking and strumming was just a childhood hobby. The Wright brothers needed something to break up the monotony of selling and repairing bicycles, so they looked around for an interesting pastime -and built an airplane!

Clearly, you never know where having a hobby will lead. But a new report from the Mayo Clinic shows that one benefit is certain: It sets you in the direction of a healthier life. Researchers

tracked 256 people for four years, from about age 87 to 91, and found that those who continued to make time for arts, crafts and other hobbies were a whopping 73 percent less likely to show signs of fuzzy thinking and memory slips. Volunteers took tests for signs of “mild cognitive impairment” at the start and finish of the study. In-between, those who fared best kept busy with everything from fine arts, like drawing and sculpting, to woodworking, pottery, ceramics, quilting and sewing.

But as Bonnie, Wilbur and Orville prove, the benefits of having a hobby don’t just apply to folks over age 80. Hobbies at any age, the scientists say, keep brain cells healthier. They stimulate the growth of new cells and new connections between cells, while maintaining healthy pathways that promote clear thinking and sharp memories. That means you build up more cognitive reserve and end up with a healthier, better-wired mind that can weather age-related brain changes with fewer problems.

Can you stand it?

“Standing is stupid/Crawling’s a curse/Skipping is silly/Walking is worse,” Shel Silverstein wrote in the illustrated children’s book “A Light in the Attic.” He was funny, for sure, but wrong, oh so wrong. It turns out it’s too much sitting that’ll do you in before your time. By not moving your muscles, you lower the production of good-for-you HDL cholesterol, elevate blood levels of triglycerides and glucose, and make it harder to recover if you get sick.

Luckily there are solutions that don’t require you to do a Forrest Gump across America! Our favorite: Use a stand-up desk. It’s a great way to activate your muscles and your brain while you’re at work or school. (Dr. Mike takes it to another level with his treadmill desk!) And you can have a tall stool nearby for occasional sit-downs.

Researchers are calling that combo a “stand-up-biased” desk and say you burn 15 percent more calories using them. When they’re used in classrooms, teachers report that kids pay more attention and are more engaged than when they’re sitting down.

No reason to think that isn’t true at work, too!

Another great move: If you can’t get a standing desk in your classroom or at work, set your smartphone alarm to get you moving once an hour: Researchers at the University of Utah School of Medicine found that trading two minutes of sitting for two minutes of light-intensity activity each hour lowered the risk of premature death by 33 percent. You certainly can stand for that!

READING IS BRAIN FOOD FOR KIDS From “Counting Kisses” to “The Very Hungry Caterpillar,” and from “The Cat in the Hat” to “Where the Wild Things Are,” the books that were read to you as a child have a special place in your memories. But there’s more to snuggling up on Mom or Dad’s lap while he or she reads to you than you may realize. Being read to expands a child’s imagination, vocabulary and ability to understand abstract concepts. It actually helps the brain grow, and the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center has the MRIs to prove it.

They scanned the brains of 19 3- to 5-year-olds and found that those children whose parents read to them often had much more active and developed areas of the brain where you comprehend language and create mental images. That development allows an easy transition from picture books to text-based books.

It’s well-documented that a young child’s mental development increases the more parents talk to him or her. Kids need to hear words (not baby talk) and be spoken to directly from the very beginning of life.

By 18 months, kids who are not spoken to very often are already falling behind in verbal skills. So talk to your children; read to them and make up stories

together. And if you don’t have a handy supply of kids’ books, ask friends to share the books their children have outgrown; go online to www.magickeys.com/ books for free books; and check out children’s reading events at local bookstores and libraries.

ONE MORE REASON TO BE SOUR ON THIS SWEET What do “The Waltons,” “The Andy Griffith Show” and “Little House on the Prairie” have in common?

They pulled on your heartstrings, even if they were kinda sappy. In some things, a touch of corniness is welcome.

But when it comes to your food, researchers at UC Davis and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Western Human Nutrition Research Center say that even a little high-fructose corn syrup should have you turning the channel (so to speak) and choosing HFCS-free foods. The scientists found that consuming a moderate amount of HFCS (equivalent to half a can of soda at breakfast, lunch and dinner) for two weeks can amp up lousy LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels while boosting your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Eighty-five healthy volunteers were divided into three groups: One group got drinks sweetened with a 25 percent concentration of HFCS, one with 17.5

percent and a third with 10 percent. The 25 percenters saw their LDL go up from 91 mg/dL to 107; the other HFCS-drinking groups went from 93-95 to 102. (Healthy levels are below 100; for some it’s around 70.)

Unfortunately, in 2009, each North American ate more than 35 POUNDS of HFCS -- now some say it’s up to 66 pounds! And heart woes aren’t the only problem researchers report that HFCS can trigger: Scientific articles say it leads to weight gain by inhibiting secretion of the “stop eating” hormone leptin and never shutting off the “feed me more” hormone ghrelin. So read ingredients labels on EVERY food you buy, and go with fruits and berries for your natural sweet treats.

PUT A SMILE ON YOUR KIDS PLATE! The smiley emoticon may seem a little, well, overused and in your face, but the sign of good times and good spirits has a long and rich history. Some say Smiley Face started in 1963, when graphic artist Harvey Ross Ball was paid $45 by the State Mutual Life Assurance Company to create a graphic that would cheer up its dispirited employees. But the owners of the Smiley Company (no relation to Ball) claim the first known record of the image is a 4,500-year-old carved likeness found in a cave in France.

Whatever its origins, there’s no disputing that Smiley has become a part of your everyday life -- and it occasionally can elicit a smile from even the grump-

Baltimore gets bloodier as arrests drop post-Freddie Gray BALTIMORE (AP) — A 31-year-old woman and a young boy were shot in the head Thursday, becoming Baltimore’s 37th and 38th homicide victims so far this month, the city’s deadliest in 15 years.

The most recent killings claimed the lives of Jennifer Jeffrey and her 7-yearold son, Kester Anthony Browne. They were identified by Jeffrey’s sister, Danielle Wilder.

Jeffrey and her son were found dead early Thursday, each from gunshot wounds to the head.

As family members cried and held each other on the quiet, leafy block in Southwest Baltimore where they lived, Wilder said she felt as if “my heart has been ripped out.”

Wilder said a neighbor called their other sister early Thursday, concerned that she hadn’t heard any noise coming from Jeffrey’s house: no footsteps, Wilder said, no voices, and no gunshots. But when her brother let himself into the house to check on the mother and son, he discovered their bodies.

“She was in the living room,” Wilder said. “The baby was upstairs, in the bed.”

Wilder said police told her there were no signs of forced entry, and that whoever killed Jeffrey and Browne were let

Homicides rise, arrests fall The uptick in homicides across Baltimore has so far claimed the lives of 38 people this month. Meanwhile, arrests have plunged: Police are booking fewer than half the number of people they pulled off the streets last year. into the house sometime yesterday. Wilder said Jeffrey also lived with her niece and grand-niece. Wilder said she believed that whoever killed Jeffrey wanted to catch her alone, and that the boy was collateral damage.

Thursday’s deaths continue a grisly and dramatic uptick in homicides across Baltimore that has so far claimed the lives of 38 people. Meanwhile, arrests have plunged: Police are booking fewer than half the number of people they pulled off the streets last year.

Arrests were already declining before Freddie Gray died on April 19 of injuries he suffered in police custody, but they dropped sharply thereafter, as his death unleashed protests, riots, the criminal indictment of six officers and a full-on civil rights investigation by the U.S. Justice Department that has officers working under close scrutiny.

“I’m afraid to go outside,” said Antoinette Perrine, whose brother was shot down

Pizza Specials

three weeks ago on a basketball court near her home in the Harlem Park neighborhood of West Baltimore.

Ever since, she has barricaded her door and added metal slabs inside her windows to deflect gunfire.

“It’s so bad, people are afraid to let their kids outside,” Perrine said. “People wake up with shots through their windows. Police used to sit on every corner, on the top of the block. These days?

They’re nowhere.”

West Baltimore residents worry they’ve been abandoned by the officers they once accused of harassing them, leaving some neighborhoods like the Wild West without a lawman around.

“Before it was over-policing. Now there’s no police,” said Donnail “Dreads” Lee, 34, who lives in the Gilmor Homes, the public housing complex where Gray, 25, was chased down. “People feel as though they can do things and get away with it. I see people walking with guns almost every single day, because they

know the police aren’t pulling them up like they used to.”

Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said his officers “are not holding back,” despite encountering dangerous hostility in the Western District.

“Our officers tell me that when officers pull up, they have 30 to 50 people surrounding them at any time,” Batts said.

Batts provided more details at a City Council meeting Wednesday night, saying officers now fear getting arrested for making mistakes.

“What is happening, there is a lot of levels of confusion in the police organization.

There are people who have pain, there are people who are hurt, there are people who are frustrated, there are people who are angry,” Batts said. “There are people, and they’ve said this to me, ‘If I get out of my car and make a stop for a reasonable suspicion that leads to probable cause but I make a mistake on it, will I be arrested?’ They pull up to a scene and another officer has done something that they don’t know, it may be

illegal, will they be arrested for it? Those are things they are asking.”

The Baltimore Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 3 on Thursday posted a statement from President Gene Ryan on social media saying that the police are “under siege.”

“The criminals are taking advantage of the situation in Baltimore since the unrest,” Ryan wrote. “(Police) are more afraid of going to jail for doing their jobs properly than they are of getting shot on duty.”

Protesters said Gray’s death is emblematic of a pattern of police violence and brutality against impoverished African-Americans in Baltimore. In October, Batts

— Anthony Batts police commissioner

and Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake invited the Justice Department to participate in a collaborative review of police policies. The fallout from Gray’s death prompted the mayor to ramp that up, and U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch agreed to a more intensive probe into whether the department employs discriminatory policing, excessive force and unconstitutional searches and arrests.

Baltimore was seeing a slight rise in homicides this year even before Gray’s death April 19. But the 38 homicides so far in May is a major spike, after 22 in April, 15 in March, 13 in February and 23 in January.

With one weekend still to go, May 2015 is already the deadliest month in 15 years, surpassing the November 1999 total of 36.

Ten of May’s homicides happened in the Western District, which has had as many homicides in the first five months of this year as it did all of last year.

Non-fatal shootings are spiking as well — 91 so far in May, 58 of them in the Western District.

ABC’s ‘Bachelor’ Chris Soules splits from fiancee Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff have “amicably decided to end their relationship” two months after the finale of the reality dating show where the couple got engaged.

■

NEW YORK (AP) — Another couple from ABC’s “The Bachelor” has broken up.

Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff have split two months after the finale of the reality dating show where the couple got engaged.

At the time, the 33-year-

old Soules, a farmer from Arlington, Iowa, was gearing up to immediately head to Los Angeles to compete on “Dancing With the Stars.”

He and Bischoff, 29, a Chicago fertility nurse, released a statement saying they’ve “amicably decided to end their relationship”

and “part with nothing but respect and admiration for one another.”

In a recent interview, “Bachelor” host Chris Harrison acknowledged that seeking the limelight after the show might not be the best for a new relationship.

“I don’t begrudge anybody for taking advantage of any opportunity. ... It’s good money to be on ‘Dancing With the Stars.’ But, the couples that have been successful, you know they got what they came for and now I’m out of here. ... I always tell them, ‘Let the show ...

Scripps National Spelling Bee ends in tie for 2nd year in a row OXON HILL, Md. (AP) — They couldn’t be rattled.

They couldn’t be denied.

Gokul Venkatachalam and Vanya Shivashankar had worked too hard and come close too many times not to win the Scripps National Spelling Bee. So they shared the title on Thursday, making history in two different ways.

The bee hadn’t ended in a tie for 52 years — until last year. Now it’s happened for an unprecedented two years running.

Vanya, 13, of Olathe, Kansas, is the first sibling of a past champion to win. Her sister, Kavya, won in 2009.

Vanya’s final word was “scherenschnitte,” which means the art of cutting paper into decorative designs.

After being informed he’d be the co-champion if he got the next word right, Gokul didn’t even bother to ask the definition before spelling “nunatak.” For the record, it means a hill or mountain completely surrounded by glacial ice.

Winning words For her final word, Vanya Shivashankar spelled “scherenschnitte,” which means the art of cutting paper into designs. Gokul Venkatachalam spelled “nunatak,” which means a hill or mountain completely surrounded by REGULAR MEETING OF THE glacial ice.

“I knew it right away,” he said. “I didn’t want to keep everyone waiting.”

Gokul, 14, of Chesterfield, Missouri, finished third last year, behind the two co-champions. He had a gruff onstage demeanor, confirming a word’s roots and definition before chugging through the letters as if he had dinner plans.

Underneath his blue-andwhite button-down shirt, Gokul wore the jersey of his idol, LeBron James.

“I wasn’t nervous,” he said.

Gokul hopes to attend Stanford and become an entrepreneur or stockbroker.

But his immediate priority is to watch the NBA Finals.

Des Moines water utility sets nitrate-removal record DES MOINES (AP) — Des Moines Water Works says the organization has set a record for using equipment that removes nitrate from the water so it’s safe to drink.

The utility, which serves about 500,000 people in the Des Moines area, announced Thursday it had used its nitrate removal facility for 111 days this year, breaking the record of 106 days set in 1999.

Officials say there is no sign nitrate levels will drop, allow-

ing them to stop using the equipment.

Des Moines gets water from the Des Moines and Raccoon rivers. Nitrate levels are about 16 milligrams per liter in the Des Moines and 15 in the Raccoon.

The federal maximum is 10.

Water Works blames upstream farms for the nitrates and has sued three counties over water flowing from agriculture drainage districts.

Runoff into Raccoon River causes E. coli spike at lake DES MOINES (AP) — Officials have closed a Des Moines lake to swimming after water samples showed high levels of E. coli.

The Des Moines Register reports workers posted signs Thursday at the Gray’s Lake beach after testing showed E. coli levels four times above the safe beach threshold set the by Iowa Department of Natural Resources.

City Parks and Recre-

ation Department spokeswoman Jen Fletcher says the spike in E. coli levels was due to runoff into the Raccoon River, which feeds the lake.

Fletcher says such elevated levels happen about once a year. The beach could open within a week, but that depends on weather conditions.

The Gray’s Lake swimming area opened about two weeks ago.

NATIONAL DIGEST

Medical leave PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (AP) — Former FIFA vice president Jack Warner left a Trinidad jail by ambulance Thursday, a day after he was charged in a U.S. corruption case that has led to the arrests of more than a dozen international soccer officials and businessmen.

Judicial officer Ibrahim Ali said the 72-year-old Warner complained of exhaustion and was not able to face questions from reporters gathered for several hours outside the jail in this twin-island Caribbean nation off the coast of Venezuela.

But a short while later, Warner donned a cap and a garland of flowers to give a lengthy, defiant speech before a crowd of raucous supporters in the district he represents as an opposition member of Parliament.

“If I have been thiefing FIFA money for 30 years, who give me the money? How come he is not charged? Why only persons from Third World countries have been charged?” Warner said, drawing hoots and applause from partisans wearing green-colored shirts of his Independent Liberal Party.

Warner surrendered to authorities Wednesday and was granted a $395,000 bond but spent the night in jail. He faces eight counts in the U.S., including conspiracy to defraud and to engage in racketeering.

A judge ordered Warner to surrender his passport and report to police twice a week.

Warner was forced out of FIFA in 2011 over a bribery scandal but has denied any wrongdoing.

Homecoming

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Josh Hamilton stepped into the batter’s box to a loud ovation.

The Texas Rangers fans got even louder when he lined the first pitch he saw into the rightfield corner for a double. “ I t ’ l l Hamilton be a game I’ll remember forever. Coming back and getting a warm reception like that, all through the game, people in the stands ‘Welcome back Josh, glad to have you back,’” Hamilton said. “It just makes you feel good. I hope the fans know that I’m giving them everything I’ve got being back, just like I did when I was here before.”

Hamilton finished 2 for 4 Thursday night, including an RBI single in the ninth — on another sharply hit ball to right — that accounted for the Rangers’ only run in a 5-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox.

PK goal, solid defense send Creston to substate finals

By LARRY PETERSON

CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

GLENWOOD — “This is big time.”

That was the assessment by a smiling Creston goalkeeper Alex Nielsen, moments after the Panthers gained their first-ever postseason victory over the host Glenwood Rams Thursday night in a Class 2A substate semifinal match.

Ben Irr’s penalty kick goal was the only scoring in the defensive-oriented match. The victory avenged a 2-0 loss to Glenwood in the regular season and disappointments in substate play the past two seasons on the same field.

The win also erased some of the frustration of an 8-7 regular season when there were much higher hopes for this senior-oriented squad.

Glenwood, ranked 14th in the state, saw its final record slip to 10-7.

The Panthers are also 10-7 now heading into a noon match Saturday at Adel against eighth-ranked

ADM, which improved to 15-4 with a 5-2 victory Thursday over Atlantic.

“I told the boys before we played, it’s a new season, we’re 1-0, and we’re going to get them,” said Panther coach Jesus Rodriguez. “As soon as the game started tonight, BANG, we were on. I could see it.”

Turnaround Senior co-captain Conner Pals said players were reminded that Creston held a 1-0 halftime lead last year in the same matchup, and ended up losing 2-1 as the Rams went on to gain a state tournament berth.

“We said this is exactly like last year, except they came out harder and faster than us in the second half last year,” Pals said.

“We knew Pals we just had to respond this year. We came out flying. That sent a message that we were not tired, and we were not going

Wolverines defeat Creston baseball in extra innings

Panthers split season openers against LC

By KYLE WILSON

CNA associate editor • jwaddingham@crestonnews.com

CNA managing editor kwilson@crestonnews. com

Consider it a lesson of baseball.

On Wednesday, the Creston baseball team stunned Class 4A Indianola, 1-0, behind a pitching gem from sophomore Kadon Hulett.

One night later, they lost their home opener to Class 2A Nodaway Valley, 9-5, in eight innings.

“I told them before the game they played well yesterday,” Creston baseball coach Steve Birchard said. “But, that they’d need to come out and prove again tonight that we are a good baseball team.

We didn’t prove it.”

Nodaway Valley took an early 3-0 lead Thursday as Creston freshman hurler Jaden Driskell struggled to find the strike zone in the first inning of his first varsity start.

He walked five in the opening frame and the Panther de-

fense committed two errors.

“He looked to have a few jitters. That’s to be expected, but he definitely has some promise for them,” Nodaway Valley coach Dan Jameson said. “I felt we should have come away with more than three in that inning.”

The Panthers tied the game in the second inning when sophomore third baseman Brody Frain drove the ball into deep left-center field. Off the bat, it looked like extra bases for Frain, but Beau W e i n heimer made a Weinheimer nice running catch at the warning track.

Still, the sac fly drove in fellow sophomore Dalton O’Riley from third — knotting the game at 3-all — and moved Brenden McDowell to third with just one out.

The Panthers took a 4-3 advantage moments later when Driskell plated McDowell on a ground out to the second baseman.

Nodaway Valley then tied the game at 4-4 in the fifth when leadoff hitter Nathan Andrews was hit by a pitch, stole second, was balked to third and scored on a wild pitch.

The game stayed tied until the top of the eighth when Nodaway Valley’s Zach Marnin drew a walk, stole second base and scored on a one-out single by Colton Garside.

That gave way to Nodaway Valley’s Weinheimer delivering the knockout blow with a two-out, two-RBI single up the middle that gave Nodaway Valley a 7-4 lead.

COUNCIL BLUFFS — Creston’s softball season openers against Lewis Central Thursday night was more than just a chance to shake out early season jitters and get back into the swing of competitive play.

It could have Hawkeye 10 title implications.

The Panthers split with the Titans in a doubleheader, winning the first 4-1 and dropping the second game 5-2.

“I think Lewis Central is going to be a factor in the conference race ... this is a little different than our normal schedule where we usually have three, maybe four games before conference play,” said Creston head coach Mike McCabe.

“The kids were ready to play. They (LC) returned both pitchers from last year and played some underclassmen that have another year of experience. We knew going over there, we were going to have a tough go at it.”

Knotted at 0-0 going into the third inning in the first game, Taylor Briley found a hole for a single and advanced into scoring position on a hit by Haylee LaMasters. Natalie Mostek floated a ball into center that was mishandled by the Titans, allowing Briley to score.

LaMasters scored on a passed ball to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead.

In the fourth, J o s i e Sickels drove in her sister Jami, and Josie l a t e r LaMasters scored on an error.

“We were opportunistic

there,” McCabe said. “In a game like that, we found a way to get a couple of runs in a couple of innings and that was enough for Haylee.”

LaMasters had a strong showing in the circle to start the season, fanning 11 batters and only walking one. Lewis Central’s lone run came in the seventh inning.

M c C a b e said a big factor in stopping the Titans’ momentum was Higgins two assists from outfielder Alyssa Higgins. She gunned down a runner at home in the fourth inning and ended the first game on a throw to third.

“We got out of a couple of jams and we were aided by those assists from Alyssa,” McCabe said.

In the second game, Titan’s pitcher Mckena Dufek blasted a two-run home run to give Lewis Central the early advantage. From the circle, she kept the Panthers off balance, forcing 10 fly outs.

“We just couldn’t get anything going offensively,” McCabe said. “We probably helped her out with a little bit with our pitch selection.”

McCabe added while the pitch selection may not have been ideal for the Panthers, he reminded his team in the post-game huddle it is a fine line between aggressive play and impatience.

“The girls played well,” McCabe said. “I thought we made a couple of really nice plays. In this situation, we can take the split.”

Area softball on the wrong side of an offense battle against Albia Wednesday in their season opener, 12-11.

The Lady Mustangs picked up four runs in the top of the first, but Albia answered with four runs in the bottom of the first. Murray could not recover from the Blue Demon’s six-run performance in the fourth inning.

“It was a good night for hitting,” Jerry Shields said.

“Our young pitchers struggled and that is to be expected early in the year. It was good compeition for us stepping up to 3A.” Brandi Gilbert had three hits, two RBIs and a triple for the Lady Mustangs. Kayla Wookey drove in four RBIs with two hits.

I-35 11, Lenox 2 LENOX — Untimely errors in the top of the seventh inning allowed I-35 to pull away from Lenox Wednesday in the Tiger’s season opener, 11-2.

The Tigers trailed 3-1 going into the final inning, carried by a strong performance from Beth Christensen in the circle. She fanned seven batters in the outing.

“The score does not represent the intensity of the game,” Lenox head coach T o m Shields s a i d .

“We’ll h a v e beenter at bats as we progress.”

K a t i e Dukes D u k e s and Megan Brown drove in the Tiger’s two runs. I-35’s pitcher Carlyn Stanley had 15 strikeouts in the win.

Hensley, Caleb Lange, Kaleb Anderson and Colton Hogan each had a hit for Lenox.

LENOX — The Tigers scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to snag a victory over I-35 Wednesday, 3-2.

I-35 scored both of their runs in the top of the seventh to take a 2-1 lead before the Tiger rally. Caleb Lange went most of the way for Lenox from the mound, striking out six. Jared Hensley earned the win in a relief effort.

we started the playoffs the coaches told us it’s a new season,” Haines said.

“None of the season matters, because now is when you step up.

We had some peo- Haines ple step up tonight. We had guys out, and guys like Luke Stilwell and Alex Tamerius came in those spots and did their jobs.”

The team’s two starting center backs on defense — Chase Shiltz and Tayler Pettit — were not in the lineup Thursday. Shiltz was sidelined by a severe ankle sprain in Tuesday’s 11-0 victory over Carroll, and Pettit became ill with flu-like symptoms Wednesday and was only available for a few minutes at a time Thursday.

“Without those two guys, that just shows the heart this team has,” Pals said.

Subs step up Rodriguez moved two veteran seniors into the critical defensive spots, shifting Kaleb Cook from a wide position to the middle, and moving Kyle Jennett back from a defensive midfield spot.

Stilwell and Tamerius then filled their previous positions, while the midfield defense also rotated in senior Jake Miller.

“We’re confident in playing Kyle anywhere I put him,” Rodriguez said. “We also adjusted Cook into the center back. We have a lot

of guys capable of great things and that showed tonight. Alex (Nielsen) just has that confidence back there, too. He’s a game changer for every sport that he plays.”

Nielsen had two sliding blocks of Glenwood possessions far outside the net in the first half, timing his attack perfectly in preventing an open shot attempt.

He said the timing of the break comes with experience.

“Basically when I have a one-on-one, I have to make the decision to come out and slide for the ball or just sit back. I have to make a decision right now. Our guys knew what they had to do. Everybody stepped up and did their job.”

Rodriguez credited assistant coach Lucian Diaconu, a former goalkeeper, for working with NIelsen daily to improve his decision making against opponents’ attacks.

“Alex would not be the goalie he is today without coach D,” Rodriguez said.

The only score of the match came when freshman Evan Jacobson was fouled in the box at the 11:12 mark of the first half, just after Pals had returned after receiving a yellow card at 22:02.

“Ben (Irr) passed it to me in the middle and Evan Jacobson was on the outside,” Pals said. “I passed it to him and they took him out from behind. Me and Ben have missed PKs this year, and we’ve been working on them in practice. He just placed it perfect. That’s all you have to do.”

Irr kicked it low to the left corner of the net.

Creston defender Kyle Jennett (24) clears the ball between Glenwood’s Jacey Kalambokidis (23) and Fernando Gonzalez (11). Jennett and Kaleb Cook occupied the two center back positions on defense in the absence of injured Chase Shiltz and Tyler Pettit, out with illness much of the match. Jennett was a midfielder most of the season.

“Low and to the side is the hardest to get it,” Irr said. “This was big. Last year we were in the same exact situation at half. This year we just gutted it out.

Our guys kept clearing the ball and possessing it better.”

The Panthers almost had a second goal in the first half, but Jacobson’s hard angled shot was handled by Ram goalkeeper Connor Weis.

Glenwood finished with a 17-15 advantage in shots and 12 on goal compared to Creston’s six, but could not penetrate Nielsen and the Panther defense for a score.

“It’s unfortunate it was decided on a PK because it was a well-played game by two good teams,” Glenwood coach Shane Keeling said. “But you can’t control those things. We had our opportunities, no doubt.

More than anything, we didn’t possess to the feet like we usually do. We played into pressure more than we usually do instead of playing out of it. But give Creston credit. They play physical and they have a lot of athletic kids. We knew that.”

Rodriguez, playing out the end of his fourth and final season before returning to his home state of Texas, is excited to lead his team into a match that decides a

state tournament berth.

“I wanted this for the boys because they work so hard the whole season,” R o d r i - Rodriguez guez said.

“I guarantee we’re going to be hungry in Adel.”

Repeating history?

The site of Saturday’s match is just 16 miles from another memorable sports moment of the 2014-15 athletic year in Creston.

Many of the same players were part of Creston’s first football team to qualify for the state semifinals in the UNI-Dome with an overtime playoff victory at Dallas Center-Grimes.

Just like in that instance, Creston is the underdog Saturday against a stateranked opponent from Dallas County.

“There’s no pressure on the underdog,” Haines said. “We just need to go in and play our game.”

the middle,” Weinheimer said. “It’s always nice to have some insurance runs.”

Nodaway Valley’s Jacob Baudler added two more insurance runs later in the eighth with a two-RBI single. The Panthers did add one run in the bottom of the eighth on a RBI double down the right field line from Driskell.

For the game, Driskell went 7 2/3 innings on the mound, striking out eight w h i l e allowing nine Ladd runs (five earned) on three hits, nine walks and hitting one batter. Nodaway Valley’s Casey Ladd took the win pitching three innings, striking out three and allowing one run on two hits.

The Panthers outhit Nodaway Valley 12 to 3.

Dustin Merritt led the attack going 3-for-4 at the plate with one RBI. Frain was 2-for-3 with an RBI while McDowell was 2-for4 with a double and two runs scored.

Both teams were without key players for Thursday’s game. Creston’s Conner Pals and Gavin Woods were both competing in postseason soccer (see more on their 1-0 victory over Glenwood, above).

Creston’s Chase Shiltz is still recovering from an an-

kle injury sustained in soccer and Nodaway Valley was without Jackson Lamb, who was preparing for state golf that began today in Marshalltown.

The Panthers (1-1) host Hawkeye 10 foe Glenwood Monday and Clarinda Tuesday. Meanwhile, Nodaway Valley (1-0) travels to Wayne Corydon Monday and Bedford Tuesday.
