Huntsman pleads guilty to theft charges CNA file photo

A string of tractors makes its way down the road during last year’s KSIB tractor ride. Last year’s ride was rained out on the Saturday and instead took place Sunday. Around 200 participate each year.

Fourth KSIB tractor ride slated for Saturday with more than 225 drivers expected.

A colorful cavalcade of farm machinery will chug down Cherry Street Saturday morning as KSIB Radio begins its fourth annual tractor ride.

Since 2012, drivers young and old have brought their new and classic tractors to Creston to embark on this 70plus mile ride around southwest Iowa. This year’s route stretches about 75 miles, beginning and ending at the restored Creston Depot. Stops will include a mid-morning snack and stretch break in Lorimor, lunch at the Madison County Historical Complex and a mid-afternoon break in Macksburg.

Chad Rieck, KSIB general manager, said the drive to Madison County is what he’s looking forward to this year.

“That drive that they’ll be on in the old (U.S. Highway) 169 is probably the most scenic drive that I’ve been on in

southwest Iowa,” he said. “I think that’s going to be a real neat thing.”

Rieck said participation has remained constant over the years, with 200 or more registering for each ride. Last year, however, a rainy Saturday postponed the ride to Sunday, resulting in a slightly

smaller attendance.

As of Wednesday, approximately 225 drivers had preregistered for this year’s event.

“This year we’re over 200 tractors again and expecting a big turnout,” Rieck said.

Early registration is encouraged, but signup will

Lyndsay Jo Huntsman, 44, of Creston withdrew her previous plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty to five counts of first-degree theft Friday.

Huntsman was originally charged with ongoing criminal conduct and five counts of first-degree theft Jan. 26, which stemmed from an investigation by Creston Police Department and Iowa Department of Criminal Investigation (DCI).

According to a DCI report, Huntsman misappropriated more than $500,000 from Creston Automotive business accounts, and according to a Creston Police report, between Jan. 1, 2010, and Huntsman Dec. 31, 2014, Huntsman committed multiple thefts for financial gain on a continual basis, and knowingly acquired or maintained, directly or indirectly, interest in or control of real property through specified unlawful activity, theft or embezzlement of funds.

Each count of first-degree theft is a class C felony and carries a fine between $1,000 and $10,000, as well as a maximum of 10 years in prison.

The original charge of ongoing criminal conduct could possibly be dismissed after the sentencing hearing.

A sentencing hearing for Huntsman is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. July 31 at Union County Courthouse.

Couple who sent cow manure to neighbors file lawsuit BURLINGTON (AP) — Iowa courts are now being asked to clean up a messy neighborhood dispute over a dog that included one couple sending a quart of cow manure in the mail to another couple.

The Hawk Eye reports that Kimberly and Carlos Capdevila filed a lawsuit claiming that Mary Eipert and Steven Rowland are defaming them and in- ■ Burlington terfering with their insurcouples have ance business.

The Capdevila’s law- been sparring suit is a response to a since at least lawsuit Eipert and Rowland filed earlier this year 2010. asking a judge to order the Capdevilas to silence their barking dog and stop harassing them.

The Burlington couples have been sparring at least since 2010.

Kimberly Capdevila has said she paid a website to send the manure in December as a practical joke.

She faces a misdemeanor charge of third-degree harassment, and that case is still pending in court. If convicted, she could face up to 30 days in jail and a $625 fine.

Rowland said he initially mistook the manure for a 3-pound package of sprouted flour he had ordered, but he didn’t realize it until he opened it.

In the lawsuits, both couples are seeking monetary damages.

contrast to his fellow U.S. senator and presidential candidate, Kentucky’s Rand Paul, who favors less military intervention abroad.

It’s also notable for its specifics, especially his warning that U.S. troops are likely to perish in the Middle East as part of his approach.

While New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said in a recent speech in Georgia that “we should work with our allies that want to stand against ISIS,” he’s described that role as helping with the “weapons, equipment and training” needed for a “long fight.”

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says he’d “take the fight to them before they take the fight to us,” but he has yet to detail what that entails. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, writing over the weekend in The Washington Post, said the U.S. should increase the number of American troops in Iraq, but unlike Graham, didn’t say how many ought to deploy.

While Graham barely registers now in national polls that will be used to determine which candidates are invited to the GOP’s presidential primary debates beginning this summer, he argues Republican voters will reward him for his blunt talk about future American casualties.

“Look, I know from polling that (national security) is the No. 1 issue in Iowa and New Hampshire” among likely GOP voters, he said.

“And I’ve been more right than wrong,” he adds, noting that he was an early supporter of the troop “surge” in Iraq under President George W. Bush and was always critical of Obama’s effort to reduce the U.S. presence in Iraq.

Graham hammers Obama for not playing a more active role in establishing a functioning, democratic government in Libya after revolutionaries toppled Moammar Gadhafi in 2011. And he insists that Obama’s work to reach a nuclear accord with Iran is in vain, because the Iranians are “liars” who won’t stick to whatever inspections and restrictions make up an eventual deal.

“To the Iranians: You want a piece of a nuclear power program, you can have it,” Graham says as part of his standard campaign speech. “If you want a bomb, you’re not going to get it. If you want a war, you’re going to lose it.”

After a pause, he adds, “There’s no other way to talk in the Mideast.”

attached to the ride.

“There’s no registration fee,” said Ben Walter, KSIB program manager.

“The only thing they (tractor drivers) provide is the fuel and the tractor and the time.”

The first tractor ride was planned

by Rich Wenzig and Rieck’s father, Dave, in 2012. Wenzig, who has been on many tractor rides around Iowa and the U.S., said the lack of cost makes Creston’s tractor ride a unique one.

“Always it seems like when we have anything like this, the tractor participants have to pay for everything,” he said. “I wanted this thing to be for free.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — After several near-death experiences in the Senate, the trade agenda that President Barack Obama is pushing as a second term capstone faces its biggest h u r d l e Obama yet in the more polarized House.

Anti-trade forces have struggled to ignite public outrage over Obama’s bid to enact new free-trade agreements, but Democratic opposition in Congress remains widespread.

The outcome may turn on Republicans’ willingness to hand the president a major win in his final years in office. Underscoring the difficulties, House leaders are looking at the second or third week of June to schedule a vote, even though House members return from recess on Monday.

“The business of bill-passing is a messy, sausage-making process. It was in the Senate, and it certainly will be in the House,” White House communications director Jen Psaki said in an interview. “There will be

many moments where there will be difficult issues. We have our eyes wide open with that.”

At issue is legislation that would give Obama parameters for the trade deals he negotiates but also speed up congressional review of the final agreements by giving lawmakers the right to approve or reject deals, but not change them.

Obama is seeking this “fast track” authority to complete a 12-nation Trans-Pacific trade deal that spans the Pacific rim from Chile to Vietnam. He and trade backers say it will open huge markets to U.S. goods by lowering tariffs and other trade barriers.

Critics, labor and environmental groups in particular, argue that new trade agreements will cost jobs and that past agreements have not lived up to labor and environmental standards.

Supporters and opponents of fast track count about 20 House Democrats in favor with fewer than a dozen still on the fence. Proponents of the bill say they need at least 25 Democrats and preferably closer to 30 to counter the 40 to 50 Republicans who are expected to vote against it in the

“Most of these tractors have stories,” Walter said. “People really enjoy them. When spectators stop by and talk to them, they will talk about it all day long.”

Walter said the public is invited to come watch the ride and interact with the drivers. Spectators can meet with drivers at any of the stopping locations.

The tractor ride is free to the drivers thanks to sponsorships from several area businesses and organizations.

Tractors will depart in three groups according to pace: 15 mph, 12 mph and 10 mph. All tractors must be able to travel at least 10 mph to enter.

Wenzig and Dave Rieck lead the 15 mph group, where Wenzig said he’ll be driving his rebuilt 1958 Ford Deisel.

All roads traveled are paved, he said, to protect the machines, especially the restored antique ones.

“A lot of guys have these tractors fixed up and don’t want to ride on gravel,” he said.

Walter said the field of drivers is often diverse, representing multiple Midwestern states. He said his favorite part of the ride is encountering people who are enthusiastic about their machines.

– REASONABLE RATES –

Great Loans

GOP-controlled House.

The fast-track legislation squeezed through the Senate, coupled with a package of federal assistance for workers displaced by free trade agreements that helped secure Democratic votes. That aid measure, called Trade Adjustment Assistance, has emerged as a particularly tricky component because it’s a priority for Democrats, but many Republicans oppose it and insist on publicly voting against it.

One House leadership option is to “divide the question” on the Senate-passed bill. That would allow separate votes on fast-track and

TAA. Presumably an overwhelming number of Republicans, and just enough Democrats, would vote for fast-track. And TAA would pass with heavy Democratic support and enough help from Republicans. That would ultimately leave the Senate bill intact and clear the way for Obama’s signature.

Some Democrats, however, have raised the possibility of voting heavily against TAA to sabotage their main target, fast track. And many are unhappy that the assistance package would be partly funded by cuts in Medicare’s growth.

CENTRAL, S.C. (AP) — Lindsey Graham will formally launch his bid for president in the small South Carolina town where he grew up. His White House ambitions are rooted half a world away in the Middle East.

When kicking off his campaign Monday, South Carolina’s senior senator is sure to blast President Barack Obama’s withdrawal of troops from Iraq, insist on the need to strong-arm Iran over its nuclear program and work to subdue the violent Islamic State militants who have gained footholds in Iraq and Syria.

Yet in the early days of the 2016 campaign for president, Graham has already gone further than most of his rivals for the GOP nomination in saying how he would tackle such problems, while acknowledging the potential costs of his strategy.

Graham wants to put an additional 10,000-plus U.S. troops into Iraq, adding to the several thousand there now working as trainers and advisers only. He says it could take even more troops to stabilize the Middle East over time, adding “more American soldiers will die in Iraq and eventually in Syria to protect our homeland.”

The Islamic State militants, Graham argued at a recent campaign stop, “want to purify their religion and they want to destroy ours and blow up Israel. Every day they get stronger over there, the more likely we are to get hit over here.”

He added, “I don’t know how to defend this nation, ladies and gentlemen, with all of us sitting here at home.”

It’s a calculated risk for the 59-year-old three-term senator and retired Air Force lawyer who surprised many when he began to hint earlier this year he would run for president.

A February poll conducted by the Pew Research Center found 63 percent of adults backed some kind of military campaign against the Islamic State group, compared to 30 percent who disapprove. When asked about using ground troops, support dropped to 47 percent — with 49 percent opposed.

Further, the same survey found Americans almost evenly divided on whether military force is “the best way to defeat terrorism” or whether it “creates hatred that leads to more terrorism.”

Graham’s hawkish approach stands in stark

Cans don’t measure up Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND OFF, about the downsizing of canned products: “I have a Sound Off: the downsizing of canned foods, especially cream soups. The smaller sizes mess up a lot of recipes I use them in. I usually double the recipes and have been adding another can of soup, which makes things a little more soupy than they should be.” - Beverly in Little Rock, Ark. Beverly, the can size (or volume) has shrunk through the years. Are you using an old recipe? If you are doubling the ingredients to make two batches, the smaller size should make it less soupy rather than more. Most call for condensed soup. If you are using the regular soup, then yes, it’s probably going to be soupy. Readers, can anyone help Beverly? - Heloise FAST FACTS Dear Readers: Here are other uses for fabric scraps: • Tie around a circular form and make a wreath.

• Cut up and use as stuffing for a pillow.

• Cover buttons or pushpins.

Hints from Heloise • Make gift tags or bookmarks.

• Use to make a patchwork throw.

- Heloise RUST BEGONE! Dear Heloise: What would you suggest is the best way to clean rust off a wroughtiron garden piece? It’s too big to dip or soak. If I sand it down, can I just cover it with a rust-preventing product? Won’t the rust just come back? - L. Vela, via email Sounds like you are thinking in the right direction!

Rust is not just an ugly sight, it’s the metal being dissolved.

Do sand down as much as you can without harming the piece. Next, vinegar to the rescue! You will need a lot, so buy a gallon or two of plain old white or apple-cider vinegar. Next, place some old towels or a lot of paper towels over the rust spots, pour on the vinegar and let it soak.

Check once in a while, and

when you see the rust coming up on the towels, pour on more vinegar! Keep at it until you have removed as much as possible. Hose down the garden piece. Let dry, and you should be ready to paint with a paint that inhibits rust. Vinegar can work wonders on a lot of household problems.

Horoscope Tuesday, June 2, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be careful, because the Full Moon makes today accident-prone for your sign.

Therefore, think before you say or do anything. Be alert.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You are never casual about money issues. Today’s Full Moon might create disputes between you and others about shared property or financial matters. Check details for errors.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year is taking place. This will create tension between you and others, especially partners and close friends. Stay mellow.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Because the Moon is your ruler, naturally, you will feel the Full Moon today. Just be patient with others, especially anyone connected to your work.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Avoid disputes with friends and people in group situations, because the Full Moon today makes everyone overly excited and intense. Someone from your past may be part of this situation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept.

22) Today’s Full Moon sets up the classic dilemma between your loyalty and responsibility to home and family versus your loyalty and responsibility to your job and career.

Sometimes it’s a tough choice.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be careful today, because this is an accident-prone day for you. Many of you are traveling at this time, so take extra care when walking, jogging and driving.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Don’t get entangled with disputes about shared property, inheritances and insurance matters. Wait until the Full Moon is over for things to be resolved.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Today the only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place. This means you have to be more patient with others, especially partners and close friends. Chill out.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Cut others some slack at work today; people are on edge because of the Full Moon tension today. It’s a small thing,

but it’s there. Forewarned is forearmed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be patient with children today, because they can feel the high energy of today’s Full Moon. However, artistic adventures will be exciting.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Your focus is on home, family and your private world now, but today’s Full Moon will stress this. Don’t expect too much of yourself and others.

Be easygoing.

YOU BORN TODAY You are

resourceful and adaptable, and you have excellent problem-solving skills. You are attracted to complicated people, which is one reason your life is never boring. Go slowly this year. There is something important to learn. The first half of this year will seem slow, but soon, your efforts of the past six years will start to show results! Get out into nature this year.

National Digest

Hawks ousted SPRINGFIELD, MO.— Jordan Knutson pitched into the eighth inning, helping Missouri State hold off Iowa 3-2 on Sunday night to advance to the Super Regionals for the first time since reaching the 2003 College World Series.

The Bears (48-10) extended the nation’s longest winning streak to 19 games. Bryan Young got the final five outs, retiring Joel Booker on a flyout to end it with the tying run at second base.

Knutson (6-1) gave up two runs and three total hits in seven innings against Iowa (41-18).

Missouri State, the No. 8 national seed, will play Arkansas in the Super Regionals.

Iowa starter Connor Grant (1-2) got just one out before being relieved by closer Nick Hibbing in the first.

Hibbing pulled off a heroic effort to help Iowa stay alive with a 2-1 victory over Oregon on Sunday afternoon, then came on in relief early against host and national No. 8 seed Missouri State in the night game before faltering.

Hibbing (4-2) finished with 20 pitches against Oregon, striking out three in three hitless innings. Then he turned in 5 innings of hitless ball against Missouri State, fanning eight before leaving in the seventh.

In all, he gave up one hit and struck out 11 in 8 innings of work between the two games.

It was a memorable second season under coach Rick Heller, who led the Hawkeyes to their first NCAA Tournament victory since 1972.

“It’s huge for the program,” Heller said.

“We’re the only Division I school in our state, and the people in our state have really supported us, from fans to the high school coaches and junior college coaches. All the baseball people in our state have jumped on board with us.”

Cubs win CHICAGO — The windy conditions at Wrigley Field helped David Ross plate the game-winning run in the bottom of the 11th inning of the Chicago Cubs’ 2-1 win over the Kansas City Royals on Sunday.

Ryan Madson (0-1) issued consecutive walks to Dexter Fowler and Kris Bryant to start the decisive frame. Jason Frasor replaced him on the mound, and Anthony Rizzo delivered what appeared to be a game-winning drive into left, but Alex Gordon’s off-balance throw arrived at the plate just in time for Salvador Perez to tag a sliding Fowler.

Starlin Castro was walked intentionally to load the bases. Ross popped an off-speed pitch into short left field.

Shortstop Alcides Escobar retreated on the ball but with his back turned, misplayed it in the wind.

Panther junior gains state tourney experience

By LARRY PETERSON CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

WATERLOO — Creston/O-M’s Ryan Kucera had a tough draw in his first state tournament appearance, losing to top-seeded and defending state champion Sam Stickels of Fairfield Maharishi in straight sets in the opening round.

His first consolation match was more competitive, but the Panther junior was eliminated from contention with a 6-3, 6-0 loss to Tanner Atkinson of Camanche.

Stickels was defeated in the finals by Sam Jones of Clear Lake, 6-3, 6-4.

Nonetheless, Creston/O-M coach Kevin Cooper said it was a significant accomplishment for Kucera to advance to state tourna-

ment play with a season left.

He’s just the seventh Creston boys player to participate in state competitiion, singles and doubles combined.

“It was a great season by Ryan,” Cooper said. “Going to state is a prestigious thing.

Kids in all sports are trying to accomplish Cooper that. For him to go as a junior and get through that ‘first time’ thing, that’s huge. Just like at the start of the year when he had to get used to playing number one.

“He went up there and played well with good kids this year,” Cooper added.

“In that 6-3 set, he almost

made it 6-4. That’s competitive. And he was hitting points with Stickels. He represented himself and the team very well. Now maybe he can get back there and be more successful next year.”

Now it’s the girls turn to play at state for Creston/O-M, as two doubles teams begin Class 1A play at 10 a.m. Thursday at Prairie Ridge Sports Complex in Ankeny.

The regional championship team of Alli Thomsen and Jenna Taylor take on Amber Hrabik and Jackie Ingram of Denison-Schleswig in the first round. The regional runner-up team of Caitlin McIlravy and Sydney Dunphy play the third-seeded team of Claire Bouchard and Please see TENNIS, Page 7A

Nodaway Valley coach Steve Shantz said it was a tale of two different days for his talented junior.

“The first day he gave himself plenty of opportunities but could not hole any putts,” Shantz said.

“He hit his driver well but with the greens playing fast and with the undulating greens it was a tough combination. The second day Jackson started with a chipin birdie on the 13th hole.

He continued shooting well until the turn and lost some confidence in his driver, struggling to a 9-over 44 on the front side. He did Please see GOLF, Page 7A

Iowa counties targeted by water utility lawsuit respond Recent upstream monitoring recorded levels as high as 39.2 milligrams per liter in groundwater discharged by drainage districts in Sac County.

■

DES MOINES (AP) — The three rural Iowa counties targeted in a federal lawsuit by a Des Moines water provider have filed a response denying that they contributing to high nitrate levels in rivers.

A team of attorneys representing Buena Vista, Calhoun and Sac counties submitted the response in the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of

Iowa on May 22, The Des Moines Register reported.

“Defendants admit water quality always is an issue, deny that they are responsible for ... any such pollution,” the 29-page court document said.

The lawsuit filed earlier this year says the three counties should be required to obtain federal water pollution discharge permits because they release nitrate pollutants into rivers much like regulated factories.

The nitrate comes from fertilizer and manure from 1.2 million hogs and a million turkeys that is spread on the fields in the three counties.

Water Works also seeks $900,000 it spent in 2013 and $540,000 this year to operate an expensive treatment system to remove ni-

trates from water.

Nitrate in drinking water must be below 10 milligrams per liter to be considered safe by the Environmental Protection Agency. Anything above that level can be deadly to infants younger than 6 months because the chemical can reduce the amount of oxygen carried in their blood, causing a condition called Blue Baby syndrome which can be fatal, according to the EPA. Recent upstream monitoring recorded levels as high as 39.2 milligrams per liter in groundwater discharged by drainage districts in Sac County.

Similar cases in other states, including California, North Carolina and Washington, are challenging farms to reduce pollutants.

Kerry’s surgeon to accompany him to US for leg treatment WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State John Kerry’s orthopedic surgeon will accompany him on the flight from Geneva to the United States for treatment of Kerry’s broken leg, the State Department said Monday.

Spokesman John Kirby said that Dr. Dennis Burke will accompany Kerry to Boston to monitor the sec- Kerry retary’s condition and “ensure he remains comfortable.”

Kerry, 71, fractured his right femur Sunday when he struck a curb with his bicycle and fell on a regular Tour de France route southeast of Geneva.

He has been receiving treatment at Geneva’s main medical center, HUG. Earlier, Kirby described Kerry as “in great spirits and active,” making “a range of phone

calls including with the president.” He “never lost consciousness, his injury is not life-threatening and he is expected to make a full recovery,” Kirby said.

Kerry’s precise travel plans were not announced, but he will receive further care at Massachusetts General Hospital once he returns home. Kerry had hip replacement surgery several years ago.

Kerry was taken by helicopter to the Geneva hospital after a paramedic and a physician who were traveling with his motorcade at the time of crash provided him with immediate attention. X-rays confirmed the extent of his injury.

His regular government plane returned Sunday night to the United States carrying much of his staff and reporters who had accompanied him on the trip.

There was no word on whether he would need an operation.
