DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa lawmakers were on the brink of adjournment Thursday night, after approving budgets for economic development, agriculture and infrastructure spending.

The Democratic-led Senate and the Republican-controlled House did not conclude their work for the year but are likely to soon, with just a few budget bills awaiting final votes.

Lawmakers have agreed to a spending plan of about $7.3 billion for the fiscal year that starts July 1. The tentative deal includes $7.17 billion in ongoing general fund spending, plus $135 million in onetime payments for items like schools, universities and Medicaid. Lawmakers had originally estimated the one-time spending at $125 million.

Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal, D-Council Bluffs, said Thursday night that there were “no major roadblocks” before lawmakers.

One key policy bill was approved Thursday. Lawmakers in both chambers voted in favor of a plan to support broadband Inter-

net enhancement in the state. It would provide property tax relief to help service providers with the cost of adding infrastructure for broadband, a l s o known as highspeed Internet, in under- Gronstal served parts of the state. The plan would also establish a grant fund to support broadband, but no state money would be provided for the purpose.

The House and Senate backed the $42.3 million economic development budget, which covers the Economic Development Authority and the Iowa Workforce Development agency. The compromise budget is a slight decrease over the current year’s funding, largely because the Economic Development Authority still has some funding from the current year to spend.

The Legislature approved a $51.8 million budget for administration and regulation, which includes dollars for the governor’s office and the department of inspection and appeals.

They also passed a $43.1 million budget for agriculture, as well as some spending from other funds.

And they backed $119 million in infrastructure spending, with most of that spending coming from a

DES MOINES (AP) — A federal judge has denied a request to turn off the speed enforcement cameras on Interstate 235 in Des Moines.

The Des Moines Register reports a judge ruled Thursday that removing the cameras “might create a more hazardous traffic condition at the camera location.”

A lawsuit was filed against the city in March that argued the cameras violate motorists’ fundamental right to travel granted by the U.S. and Iowa constitutions.

The suit also says the cameras entrap motorists and that the equipment used to enforce speed limits fails to meet national standards.

The judge is set to hear arguments to dismiss the case June 18.

The Iowa Department of Transportation has separately ordered the Des Moines to turn off the cameras because they were not making roads safer. City officials say they will fight the order in court.

On June 22, 1941, Wilma married Wilford Mills. Wilford died Jan. 14, 2006.

1979.

On Feb. 15, 1987, Arlene married Donald Castillo at the Little Brown Church in the Vale of Nashua. After living in Iowa City, and briefly in Cedar Rapids, they moved to the Abilene, Texas, area.

Arlene was preceded in death by her parents and brother Gary.

Linda Clark, vice president and loan officer at Iowa State Savings Bank, is retiring.

Clark began her tenure at ISSB in 1986, where she served the community as a bank teller and bookkeeper.

After five years at the Clark bank, she was approached by Dave Driskell, then executive vice president and CEO at ISSB, who encouraged Clark to pursue a college degree. Driskell told Clark if she achieved her degree, he would put her in a loan desk as a trainee.

“I recognized she had a lot more ability and people skills than she was using in her present job,” Driskell said.

Clark followed Driskell’s advice and went back to college at 41-years-old. She completed her associate of business administration while working full-time and having children at home.

“When somebody shows that with a family, that kind of commitment to pursue betterment in their life ... they are going to bring that same commitment to work.”

Driskell said. “She’s proven that. Over and over again.”

Clark, who has served as a loan officer for 24 years was ISSB’s first female loan officer. She said, while it was common for women to work in banks, it was less common for women to serve in the role as loan officer.

“I didn’t know how I would be treated by the other men loan officers because they were pretty seasoned and had been here for several years,” Clark said. “But, they accepted me and…were very good support.”

Clark recalled how different the banking industry was when she first started compared to present day.

“It is totally different,” Clark said. “The tellers balanced with pen and pencil and paper. We had eight people in bookkeeping, and we shared one computer. So, we’ve come a long way.”

Clark became a recognizable face in the community as a representative of ISSB on the following boards; First American Cancer Board, Relay for Life, United Fund, Chamber of Commerce, Lake Shore Golf and Country Board, Southwest Iowa Homebuilders Board and Bluegrass Realtors Association.

Clark said she’s proud of her ability to keep up on

fund that collects gambling tax revenues.

Bickering over the amount of available spending dragged the session well past May 1, when their daily expense payments expired.

At the center of the debate was a philosophical difference over the funds available to spend.

Senate D e m ocrats and Gov. T e r r y Branstad s u p p o r t - Branstad ed using some of the state’s surplus money to balance the budget, while House Republicans said the state should not spend more than the projected revenue for the upcoming fiscal year.

a young banker. Linda will be missed.”

Joann Moore, Vice President of Real Estate and Consumer Lending, said Clark will be missed by her co-workers and customers.

“I have relied on and trusted her for support and help, not only at work, but in my personal life, as well. I am very grateful and fortunate for having had the opportunity to work with her and get to know her as a person,” Moore said. “She has been my mentor, co-worker and most importantly, friend. We have developed a friendship that I know, will last a lifetime.”

Not only is Clark celebrating her retirement, but, this July, will celebrate 20 years as a breast cancer survivor.

“Of course I was working at the bank when I was diagnosed and doing treatment,” Clark said. “The support of the bank family helped me get through that rough time.

Clark’s plans for retirement? To spend more time with her children, 16 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren and her friends.

There will be an open house to celebrate Linda’s retirement on Friday, June 5 from 12 – 3 p.m. at the Iowa State Savings Bank branch on Hwy 34 in Creston.

the changes in technology, products and services, but, her main concern has always been her customers.

“A lot of them are my friends,” Clark said. “I’ve worked with them a long time, through ups and downs. I’ve helped them to be able to finance homes, construction of new homes and vehicles. That’s just been a real privilege to be able to do that for the people in my community.”

Ty Rogers, Senior Vice President consumer lending at ISSB, said Clark always has the customer’s best interest in mind.

“While working at a competitor bank, my impression of her was she was a professional lender. This became evident when I began working alongside her. She always goes the extra mile to help her customers, whether it’s to help them get a loan, balance their checkbook, or just being someone at the bank the customer can talk with.”

Adam Snodgrass, Chief Financial Officer at ISSB, said Clark helped him as he entered the banking industry.

“When I started working at ISSB and began making loans, Linda was available for my numerous questions.

Her experience and expertise helped form my skills as

lion in the fiscal year that begins July 1. That’s about 6 percent more than the current year.

But farm incomes have slowed, Branstad said Wednesday. He also noted that the bird flu outbreak has taken a toll on farmers in the state.

“It is a difficult and stressful situation in order to budget,” said Branstad, who has largely refrained from comment on the individual budget bills.

One educational item remains unclear.

Iowa Board of Regents President Bruce Rastetter said Thursday that tuition will be frozen at state universities for the fall semester, but he said officials will need to assess if the institutions have enough state funding to maintain the freeze in the spring.

Under the compromise spending plan, universities will get a funding increase, but not the full $8.8 million requested to maintain a third year of tuition freezes.

AP sources: Jeb Bush is in the race for president First class named to World Bush would be the third member of his immediate family to sit in the Oval Office if elected.

■

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will run for president in 2016, according to several senior aides who confirmed Bush Thursday that the Republican would announce his widely expected decision in Miami later this month.

As the son of one president and brother of another, Bush would be the third member of his immediate family to sit in the Oval Office if elected. His decision to run ensures the possibility of a general election showdown between two political families as Hillary Rodham Clinton eyes the Democratic presidential nomination.

Bush senior aides confirmed that the 62-year-old Bush, who left the Florida governor’s mansion in 2007, will enter the race during an event at Miami Dade Col-

lege soon after returning from a weeklong European trip. The aides spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the decision ahead of the formal announcement.

“My expectation, my hope, is I’ll be a candidate,” Bush said earlier in this week while attending an economic forum in Florida with other 2016 GOP prospects.

There’s been little mystery to Bush’s plans. He’s been raising many millions of dollars for a separate political group that is expected to support his candidacy and perform many of the functions of a campaign, although with dollars not bound by the same federal requirements as a formal campaign committee.

Bush enters the race as the overwhelming favorite of the Republican establishment, and he is expected to dominate his GOP competitors in fundraising.

Yet he faces considerable resistance from the party’s conservative flank, which holds outsized influence in

the Republican presidential primary process.

Bush will enter a large primary field that includes Sens. Rand Paul, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, among others. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry joined the race Thursday.

Meanwhile, Govs. Scott Walker of Wisconsin and Chris Christie of New Jersey have not yet announced their intentions, but they have been hiring staff and visiting early-voting states such as Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.

By announcing his candidacy, Bush must stop coordinating with Right to Rise, a so-called super PAC which can raise unlimited dollars so long as there is no interaction between it and the candidate or his lieutenants. Bush has been working closely with longtime adviser Mike Murphy, who is expected to run the group, while David Kochel, a veteran aide to Mitt Romney, is expected to manage Bush’s campaign.

“Gov. Bush is thankful for the support and encouragement he has received from so many Americans during the last several months and looks forward to announcing

his decision,” spokeswoman Kristy Campbell said.

Bush teased his announcement Thursday morning, writing “coming soon” on Twitter with a link to the website, http://jebannouncement.com. On that page, the date 06.15.15 was listed, followed by the tease, “BE THE FIRST TO KNOW. RSVP NOW!” Bush also tweeted it in Spanish, “Próximamente 6.15.15.”

By promoting his announcement in this way, Bush is also trying to collect new data about potential supporters. To receive the announcement through the website, voters must provide their name, email address and ZIP code.

On the tactical side, Bush’s candidacy will set in motion a nationwide fundraising network to begin soliciting contributions of as much as $2,700 — the limit under the rules — to his official campaign.

Bush is planning to visit the four early-voting states after the Miami announcement, beginning with New Hampshire on June 16, Iowa on June 17, South Carolina on June 18 and Nevada on June 27.

Video Game Hall of Fame ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — The first inductees into the new World Video Game Hall of Fame include “Pong,” the game that introduced millions to electronic play, “Doom,” which triggered a debate over the role of games and violence in society, and “Super Mario Bros.,” whose mustachioed hero has migrated to everything from fruit snacks to sneakers.

The first six games to enter the hall of fame cross decades and platforms, but all have impacted the video game industry, popular culture and society at large, according to the new hall at The Strong museum in Rochester, where the games were enshrined Thursday.

Joining “Pong,” launched in 1972, “Doom,” from 1993, and 1985’s “Super Mario Bros.” are arcade draw “Pac-Man” (1980); Russian import “Tetris” (1984); and “World of Warcraft” (2004), which has swallowed millions of players into its online virtual universe.

The newly created World Video Game Hall of Fame

Inductees: “Pong” (1972) “Pac-Man” (1980) “Tetris” (1984) “Super Mario Bros” (1985) “Doom” (1993) “World of Warcraft” (2004) pays homage to an industry that rivals Hollywood in the entertainment pecking order. The Strong, which bills itself as the national museum of play and also houses the National Toy Hall of Fame, has been preserving and collecting games and artifacts for years through its International Center for the History of Electronic Games.

The inaugural hall of fame class was recommended by a panel of judges made up of journalists, scholars and other experts on the history and impact of video games.

They chose from among 15 finalists that also included: “Angry Birds,” “FIFA,” “The Legend of Zelda,” “Minecraft,” “The Oregon Trail,” “Pokemon,” “The Sims,” “Sonic the Hedgehog” and “Space Invaders.”

Mastering the morning meal Dear Heloise: I am not a morning person, and I am always struggling to MAKE BREAKFAST for my family.

To try to make our mornings go more smoothly, I have started looking for things I can make the night before.

One of my favorites to make is muffins. I simply make them the night before, and then just warm them in the microwave in the morning. - Hattie W., via email Hattie, it’s wise to try to plan, or at least check that you have breakfast items available, rather than finding out at 6 a.m. that there is no milk!

Muffins, biscuits and fresh fruit are the perfect breakfast foods ... tasty, nothing to cook, and they are portable! Also, snack or protein bars, a small bag with nuts, dried fruit and homemade granola travel well, too. That is one of my personal road-warrior travel hints: Always have nonperishable food in your carry bag! - Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise. com

Hints from Heloise TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: Another travel tip for safety and convenience: I have started packing a battery-powered candle for those dark hotel/ ship bathrooms. It has saved a few stubbed toes, and we can always locate the facilities in the middle of the night. A lot of baths have the “on” switch on the outside of the room - I always hate waking my roommate. - T.J., via email GROWING A GARDEN Dear Readers: Springtime means it’s time to get outside for some fresh air, sunlight (not too much!) and being around green and growing plants! A vegetable garden is one way to get your exercise and help cut down your grocery bill if you plant the right veggies. Here are a few hints to think about: * What type of garden you would like? Vegetable, herb, flower, etc.? * Where and how big will it be? My suggestion is if this is

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

a first or second attempt, start SMALL! Next time you can grow more. Too many gardeners don’t plan on how much produce they might end up with! Your friends and neighbors can take only so many tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. Trust me on this one! I love cukes, but can’t eat a bagful in a few days. * Check the garden center or your county extension agent about what is best for the climate and soil conditions where you live. Don’t try to grow pineapple in Philadelphia or potatoes in San Antonio. It’s not going to work! * Do mark your plants! You can see what did and didn’t work.

- Heloise COUNTING COUPONS BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker Dear Heloise: I love using coupons at the grocery store because I save money. There have been a few times I wondered whether I got credit for all of them. Now, I total up the coupons before I check out.

Before I go to the store, I total the ones I hope to use, then do a quick total before checkout.

If the totals are different, I ask the cashier to double-check. Lynn, via email (c)2015 by King Features Syndicate Inc. BLONDIE® by Dean Young

Taking action with skin cancer on the rise (Family Features) — With the return of warmer weather and longer days, it’s good to remember that temperatures aren’t the only thing on the rise.

Skin cancer rates continue to increase and cause more deaths each year, with one in five Americans expected to develop skin cancer in a lifetime.1 Despite progress in the fight against cancer, it is clear further education on skin cancer prevention and treatment is still needed.

The U.S. Surgeon General’s recent “Call to Action to Prevent Skin Cancer” study is a promising step in urging cooperative action to help advance the national goal of preventing skin cancer. These reports show tanning bed use remains common, and teens use less sunscreen now than they did ten years ago.2 More people develop skin cancer because of tanning than develop lung cancer because of smoking.3 It may take years for prevention to begin reversing the upward trend in skin cancer incidence and deaths, therefore, making strides in treatment will

be essential - especially for people diagnosed with advanced forms of the disease. Unlike cases caught at the early stages that are generally curable, these advanced cases are incurable because the tumors have grown too large or spread to other parts of the body and can be deadly or disfiguring.

Fortunately, progress in treatment has rapidly accelerated in the past few years due to an improved understanding of how skin cancer forms. It began at the turn of the century

when scientists identified proteins that play a critical role in how skin cells multiply and grow. * In basal cell carcinoma, the most common type of skin cancer, scientists learned that damage to skin cells caused

by UV radiation can lead to mutations in a group of proteins important for cell growth. As a result, excess signals among these proteins cause the cells to rapidly multiply, ultimately forming a cancerous tumor. In rare cases, basal cell carcinoma can become

advanced by invading surrounding tissue or spreading to other parts of the body and cannot be treated with surgery or radiation.

Doctors now know how to use medicines specifically designed to block the excess signals occurring in cancer cells in nearly all of these advanced cases. * In 2002, scientists discovered a mutation in a protein responsible for half of all advanced cases in melanoma, the deadliest type of skin cancer.

In just ten years after this discovery, medicines tar-

geting this mutation were approved by the FDA. Recently, other medicines have also become available to reduce the likelihood the cancer will stop responding to treatment, and additional research has produced promising medicines that activate the immune system to fight the cancer.

These important discoveries and a greater understanding of the disease have led to the development of several new options for advanced skin cancer approved by the

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 2011. Prior to this time, medical breakthroughs in skin cancer were measured in decades, not months.

Through science, skin cancer treatments have evolved from inadequate or non-existent to promising medicines targeting the exact makeup of cells in advanced skin cancer.

As seasons change and UV rays grow stronger, it is essential for preventative measures to mirror the recent strides in treatment development. On both fronts research presses onward, aiming to reverse the rising tide of this deadly disease. Read more about the real dangers of skin cancer: http://www. gene.com.

Promoting a healthy environment gets results A funny thing happened last year when a bunch of first- through third-grade kids walked to school: Their parents lost weight! The children were part of an obesity-prevention program designed by nutritionists at Tufts University and the community of Somerville, Massachusetts, called Shape Up Somerville. The program consisted of overhauling school lunches, teaching kids about nutrition in school, increasing in-school and after-school physical activity programs and sending out newsletters to their family with health tips, recipes and healthy-food coupons.

(Healthcorps — the foundation founded by Dr. Oz and his wife, Lisa, with help from Dr. Roizen — works with high-school kids to do the same.)

What the researchers found was that as the kids shaped up, it got the attention of their parents, and changed their lives, too.

When the parents got involved with healthier eating and recreational activities for their children, they started buying healthier food and snacks for home, and supported city bike lanes, walking paths and other community health programs. The result? BMIs for moms and dads decreased more than their kids’ did, and the parents went from being overweight to a healthy weight!

The lesson for public health efforts, say the Tufts researchers, is that when you improve children’s health, you also can make their parents more committed to healthy habits. The lessons for Mom and Dad? If you work to lose weight and improve your health as a family team by shopping

Weekly health tips Dr. Mehmet Oz, M.D. and Dr. Michael Roizen, M.D.

for healthy foods, taking regular walks and getting active together, you’ll get results.

PREVENTING TEEN DISTRACTED DRIVING Werner Herzog, acclaimed director of films like “Grizzly Man” and “Rescue Dawn,” made a 30-minute documentary called “From One Second to the Next” that tells four stories about people whose lives were changed forever or taken away by a driver who was texting.

It’s tough to watch, but that’s the point — and one that you, Mom and Dad, have to make to your teenagers so they NEVER text (or talk on the phone) while driving. Car accidents are the No. 1 accidental cause of death among teens. Texting while driving makes it 24 times more likely that your kid will be involved in an accident. By the way, that applies to parents too.

Unfortunately, scare tactics and in-depth conversations don’t always work.

That’s why researchers at the University of Washington’s Harborview Injury Prevention & Research Center explored more effective ways to protect teen drivers from distracted driving.

Using two available technologies — an in-vehicle camera that’s triggered by hard braking, fast cornering or an impact; and a device that blocks cellphone calls/ texts while the car is on — they tracked 29 teen drivers

for six months. In the groups using those devices, highrisk incidents and accidents were slashed by 80 percent; the call blocker was slightly more effective than the video.

Our suggestion? Watch Herzog’s documentary with your teen (Google the title to find it online), talk about the risks of distracted driving and consider installing a call blocker. It can save lives and keep your teen (and you — admit it, you sometimes break the rules, too!) from making a terrible mistake.

AVOIDING 21ST-CENTURY HAZARDS WHILE YOU’RE PREGNANT “Can you hear me now?”

When actor Paul Marcarelli uttered that phrase — over and over and over again — in a mobile phone company ad, we’re pretty sure he never thought the question should be directed at pregnant women and their fetuses. But that’s what researchers from Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in New York City wondered about.

So they tracked 28 obstetrics and gynecology residents, all of whom were in their third trimester and carried beepers or cellphones near their fetus’s head.

Preliminary findings, presented at the 2015 American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists meeting, were that a cellphone’s ringing, beeping and buzzing startle a fetus and disrupt its sleep patterns. (The researchers pointed out that

studies of pregnant women who live near airports have found that aviation noise also startles fetuses.)

Over time, around 60 percent of the fetuses toned down their reaction to the cellphones, even as the researchers made the noise more frequent, but that doesn’t mean the sounds don’t continue to change normal fetal behavior. The scientists’ advice to pregnant women: Keep cellphones as far away from your belly and the fetus’s head as possible.

Another finding from the same meeting: While pregnant, e-cigs are NOT safer than smoking tobacco cigarettes, according to researchers from the University of Maryland. The nicotine they (usually) contain alters brain development in a growing embryo, and some e-cigs contain heavy metals that can be harmful.

Even the American Vaping Association says pregnant women shouldn’t vape.

POWER YOUR GIRLS WITH POTASSIUM Gamora (Zoe Saldana) in “Guardians of the Galaxy” and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) in “Avengers: Age of Ultron” are female superheroes who, we’d guess, are fueled by a potassium-rich diet. Gotta be, to keep their cool and have such grace and strength.

Potassium definitely is a superhero among nutrients. It builds muscle strength, and that, in turn, builds stronger bones. A study in Bone shows that a 10 percent boost in muscle strength in kids just 6 years old can postpone osteoporosis decades later by up to 13 years. Another study in JAMA Pediatrics found

that young girls who get the most potassium (2,400 mg a day or more) are far more likely to have healthy blood pressure as they get older.

And making sure potassium levels are healthy may help prevent diabetes.

The recommended intake for girls 9 and older is between 4,300 and 4,500 mg daily. But few get that much, because 40 percent of the average North American teen’s diet is filled with empty calories from soda, fruit drinks, dairy desserts, pizza and solid fats.

So if you want your girls to grow up to be superwomen, make sure they get plenty of potassium-rich foods. The top 10 sources: beet greens, Swiss chard, spinach, bok choy, beets, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cantaloupe, tomatoes and asparagus. Other good sources: raspberries, strawberries and watermelon.

There’s got to be some items on that list your kid likes! And a smoothie is always a great way to blend some super-nutrients into a teen’s diet.

MEASLES VACCINE PROVIDES BIGGER BENEFITS In the home of the (notso-distant) future, when you hook up your Tesla Powerwall stationary battery (for around $3,500) to the solar panel on your roof, you might get more than you bargained for. Not only will you save money on your electric bill for heating and air conditioning (and hopefully on the cost of recharging your electric-powered vehicle), you’ll also get the added bonus of reducing your carbon footprint, which means a healthier environment for everyone.

Similarly, a new study reveals that you get a lot more than you bargained for when you give your child a measles vaccine. Not only does the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine protect against measles, it also prevents damage the virus causes to immune system memory cells. That damage makes children vulnerable to life-threatening infections for two to three years after they recover from the rash, high fever and dry cough. (We used to think the weakened immune system could recover in a few months.) And researchers who conducted the study speculate that in the days before the vaccine was introduced (1963), long-term immune system damage caused by the measles was associated with 50 percent of all childhood deaths from other infections.

As more and more states contemplate mandatory vaccination (because of recent measles outbreaks), this is one more piece of evidence that suggests parents should voluntarily — and gladly — get the MMR vaccine for their kids. Not only will they dodge the measles, it protects them from other diseases, such as pneumonia, diarrhea and bronchitis. *** Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of “The Dr. Oz Show,” and Mike Roizen, M.D. is Chief Wellness Officer and Chair of Wellness Institute at Cleveland Clinic.

PRINTED WITH

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. employers added a robust 280,000 jobs in May, showing that the economy has regained momentum after starting 2015 in a deep slump.

The unemployment rate ticked up to 5.5 percent from 5.4 percent in April, the government said Friday. But that occurred for a good reason: Hundreds of thousands more people began seeking jobs in May. Not all of them found work and so were counted as unemployed.

Last month’s strong job growth suggests that employers remained confident enough to keep hiring even after the economy shrank during the first three months of the year. The government also revised up its estimate of job growth during March and April by a combined net 32,000.

The steady hiring should help drive the economy through the rest of the year.

“We’ve restored income for well over 3 million people over the past 12 months, and that’s adding a lot of spending power to the economy,” said Carl Tannenbaum, an economist at Northern Trust.

The rise in the number of people looking for work also sounded a collective note of confidence, Tannenbaum suggested.

“That suggests that those who have been on the fringes of the job market are seeing opportunities,” Tannenbaum said.

Construction, health care and hospitality companies drove the May job growth.

On the negative side, persistently cheaper oil led energy companies to shed workers for a fifth straight month.

Average hourly wages rose 2.3 percent from a year earlier, showing some pickup. Even so, pay is barely rising above inflation, a persistent trend that has limited the economy’s growth.

NATIONAL DIGEST

OT winner OAKLAND, Calif. — After an eight-day break, the NBA’s top teams and biggest stars put on quite a show.

Only one kept it up for 53 minutes.

And only one survived without a serious injury.

Stephen Curry had 26 points and eight assists, and the Golden State Warriors withstood a 44-point effort by LeBron James for a thrilling 108-100 overtime victory over Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night.

In the Finals for the first time in 40 years, the Warriors gave their long-suffering fans quite a treat.

They rallied from an early 14-point deficit, absorbed a personal Finals best point total from James and shut down Cleveland in the extra session.

James shot 18 of 38 from the field and had eight rebounds and six assists in 46 minutes. But the four-time MVP missed a long jumper at the end of regulation, and Cleveland missed its first eight shots of overtime -- and 12 straight going back to the fourth quarter.

NCAA violations CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina’s long-running academic fraud scandal now includes five NCAA charges, including a lack of institutional control for poor oversight of an academic department popular with athletes and the counselors who advised them.

No coaches were named in the five allegations, though one dealt specifically with the conduct of a women’s basketball adviser for providing too much help on research papers.

Wacha shines LOS ANGELES — Michael Wacha pitched seven effective innings, Jason Heyward and Kolten Wong drove in two runs each, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 7-1 on Thursday night in the opener of a four-game series between the National League’s top two teams.

The Cardinals, who knocked the Dodgers out of the playoffs in each of the previous two seasons, increased their Central Division lead to 6 1-2 games over the idle Pittsburgh Pirates while the Dodgers’ West Division advantage shrunk to 1 1-2 games over the idle San Francisco Giants.

Wacha (8-1) allowed a run and seven hits without walking a batter and had five strikeouts, five days after the Dodgers beat him 5-1 at St. Louis in a game that was delayed more than 2 hours by rain. This was the right-hander’s first road start against the Dodgers, whom he defeated twice in the 2013 NL championship series while shutting them out in 13 2/3 innings.

For the first time in school history, two Creston/O-M doubles teams were opponents at the state tournament Thursday. In the foreground, Alli Thomsen (left) and Jenna Taylor take on Sydney Dunphy (left) and Caitlin McIlravy. Taylor and Thomsen won 6-2, 6-3 to advance to today’s medal round at Ankeny.

CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

ANKENY — The Creston/O-M tennis team continues to make history at the state tournament.

Last year, the team of Jenna Taylor and Audrey Fyock claimed the school’s first doubles victory in state competition prior to being eliminated short of the medal round.

This year, the program will have a medal-winning doubles team, after another program first occurred Thursday at the Class 1A State Tournament at Prairie

Ridge Sports Complex.

Two Panther doubles team met each other in the day’s final elimination round, a repeat from the regional finals in Norwalk.

And, just like that day, the doubles team of Taylor and Alli Thomsen defeated teammates Caitlin McIlravy and Sydney Dunphy, 6-2, 6-3.

The win assured Taylor and Thomsen of placing in the top eight today.

Their consolation match this morning determined whether they would play for fifth or seventh place this afternoon. They will be the

first medal-winning doubles team in school history. The only other medalists were Garret Taylor, fifth in boys singles last year, and John Brentnall eighth in the oneclass singles tourney in 1989.

Coach Kevin Cooper said it was a unique, and awkward, situation late Thursday afternoon when both of his doubles team took the court together after going 1-1 in previous matches.

“From my standpoint, it’s a good problem to have, to have two teams winning at least one match in the state tournament and then facing each other,” Cooper said.

Panthers split with Harlan in key H-10 doubleheader

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

HARLAN — After taking a hard-luck loss in game one of Thursday’s varsity doubleheader here, the Creston Panthers rebounded to force a split with Harlan by winning game two 9-3.

The Panthers and Cyclones shared the Hawkeye 10 Conference championship last year, and coming away with a split after losing game one was big for the Panthers.

“I thought it was huge,” Creston head coach Mike McCabe said. “We’ve had some times where we haven’t handled that stuff as well as we can or need to. I thought it was important to get a run there early.”

The Panthers struck first in the top of the first inning, as Josie Sickels led off with a double and after a Taylor

Briley single, scored on a Haylee LaMasters sacrifice fly.

After Harlan knotted the score at 1-1, the Panthers regained the lead in the third inning when Natalie Mostek recorded a two-out single and reached second base on an error, before scoring on a Brenna Baker base hit.

Harlan again tied it up at 2-2 in the bottom of the third inning, but Creston exploded for five runs in the top of the fourth inning to take a 7-2 lead.

Jami Sickels led off with a hit by pitch and was sacrificed to second base by Lexie Little.

“Alyssa Higgins executed a perfect push bunt between the pitcher and the first baseman,” McCabe said. “Pushed it right through the hole and Jami was able to score.”

Two straight walks to Josie Sickels and Taylor

Briley loaded the bases and LaMasters smacked the first pitch she saw over LaMasters the center field fence for a grand slam.

LaMasters added an RBI single in the sixth inning and Higgins hit an RBI single in the seventh inning for the final 9-3 margin.

“We had that big fourth inning. I think it was important, just from the psyche standpoint,” McCabe said. “Told them afterwards, discussed a lot of things we have to get better at, but I was proud of the way we stepped up and battled and came out of there with a split.”

Briley picked up the win

“It’s not a comfortable situation for the parents, or the kids or the coaches. We just encourage them all. They’re out there tired and hot in their third match of the day, and you just want them all to play well.”

Afterward, the players involved acknowledged it was “awkward,” even though they’d already experienced it at regionals.

“It’s not an ideal situation,” Dunphy said.

“We know everything about each other,” Thomsen said. “We push each other every day in practice, so we know they’re going to attack

our weaknesses and we’re going to attack theirs.”

A unique aspect of the match was hearing words of encouragement voiced toward the players on the other side of the net, or congratulations for well-placed shots.

“I’m nicer, that’s for sure,” said Thomsen, who celebrated her 18th birthday Thursday.

“We’re really good at that, encouraging,” McIlravy said.

“It’s awesome that we Please see TENNIS, page 3S

Cyclones silence Panther bats in sweep

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

HARLAN — Harlan strengthened its hold on first place in the Hawkeye 10 Conference baseball race with an 8-1, 5-1 doubleheader sweep of Creston Thursday night.

The Cyclones improved to 5-0 in league play with the two victories, and 6-1 overall. Atlantic and Lewis Central are also unbeaten in the conference, but at just 2-0.

Glenwood is 3-1 after splitting a doubleheader with Carroll Kuemper Catholic Thursday.

Creston fell to 0-3 in the league and 1-4 overall. The Panthers just didn’t have the offensive firepower to hang with the Cyclones, coach Steve Birchard said. The Panthers had only one error for the night, but were outhit by the Cyclones, 17-10.

All of Creston’s hits were singles.

“They’re a very good hitting team,” Birchard said.

“We had too many unproductive at-bats, too many easy outs. We played pretty decent defense, but we have to put a good swing on a pitch we can handle more often.”

Freshman outfielder Dustin Merritt had two of Creston’s three hits in the nightcap.

Creston’s starting pitchers were Kadon Hulett and Chase Shiltz, and both allowed four earned runs before leaving after three innings. Freshman Jaden Driskell pitched three shutout innings with only one hit allowed in the second game.

Cody Crawford relieved Hulett in the opener.

Lenox 15, SW Valley 2 LENOX — Dusten Reed hit a double and single and scored three runs as Lenox rolled past Southwest Valley 15-2 Thursday night.

Caleb Lange pitched all five innings and racked up 10 strikeouts in earning the win.

J a r e d H e n s l e y , Lange L e e v i Marshall and Brenden Christensen each drove in two runs for the Tigers (5-2).

Colten Drake had a double and single and Joey Kernan also doubled for Southwest Valley (2-3). Ryan Carlson had two hits and drove in a run.

Lane Peterson and Chance Cobb pitched for Southwest Valley.

“We made too many errors in the field and that started our downward spiral,” said Southwest Valley coach Pete Nett. I thought we hit their pitcher fairly well with six hits and a couple of extra base hits, but we ran into a couple of outs on the bases, and that always hurts against a quality pitcher.”

Lenox 15, Murray 2 LENOX — The Lenox Tigers exploded for nine runs in the first inning on the way to beating Murray 15-3 in five innings Wednesday night.

The game was moved from Murray because of wet

field conditions.

Jared Hensley was 3-of4 with two RBI for Lenox.

D u s t en Reed had two hits and an RBI, and Leevi Marshall knocked in a pair Hensley of runs on two hits. Seven of Lenox’s 11 hits occurred in the first inning.

Marshall was the winning pitcher with four strikeouts and a walk and only one earned run. Reed had one strikeout in relief.

Mason Simmons was relieved by Braydon Held on the mound for Murray. Trey McHenry and Simmons had two hits for the Mustangs (1-1). Kenny Boles, Held, Simmons and Bryce Keller each doubled for Murray.

Simmons drove in two runs.

both won a match here.

Good for the program,” Taylor added.

Taylor and Thomsen had taken a one-set lead in their quarterfinal match against fourth-seeded Chelsea Poesch and Kayla Reusche of Waverly-Shell Rock, but Poesch and Reusche then reeled off 12 straight games to win the match.

They were scheduled to meet Hawkeye 10 rivals Kayla Rogers and Sarah Cabeen of Clarinda in the consolation semifinals early today.

The Creston/O-M duo won a previous meeting in dual competition, 10-8.

Taylor and Thomsen opened the day by defeating Amber Hrabik and Jackie Ingram of Denison-Schleswig, 6-1, 6-4. They won the first set against Poesch and Reusche, 6-4, but never won another game in the match.

“My guess is that they go over to the Waverly coach at the rail and get an earful about picking it up,” Cooper said, “and we have to respond in that situation. We

talk all the time that you’re always still in it when you play three sets and you lost the first one. Credit to them for winning 12 in a row. I did not see that coming.”

Taylor and Thomsen rebounded to defeat their teammates in the elimination match, but Cooper said everyone from the Panther contingent wishes it were different circumstances.

“It’s tough,” Cooper said.

“They’ve grown up together and they all want to win. It’s a tough situation for them. If I had a choice, I would not want to see us meet ourselves until the state finals.”

McIlravy and Dunphy nearly pulled off an upset in their first set against third-seeded Claire and Jeanne Bouchard of Cedar Rapids Xavier. They were tied 5-5, fell behind 6-5, then forced a seven-point tiebreaker when they got it to 6-6. The Xavier team then won 7-3 in the tiebreaker and rode that momentum to take the second set, 6-1.

The second Panther duo came back to defeat regional champions Andrea DeBruin

and Rachel Tvedt of Pella Christian, 6-3, 6-3, to reach the consolation quarterfinals against their teammates.

“Caitlin and Sydney had three chances to win that first set in the first match against the number three seed,” Cooper said. “They fought back to force the tiebreaker and had a 2-0 lead in the tiebreaker. They let a couple points get away, or otherwise they win that first set. They came right back and beat a district champion team in the state tournament, and that’s huge for them. That right there shows you why we have high expectations for them next year.”

Cooper said both groups gained valuable experience as they seek to return as seniors in 2016.

“To be disappointed we’re not in the semifinals at state, that means we’re in the right place as a program,” Cooper said. “When we started this in 1999, we were getting beat 9-0 or 8-1 in duals, and losing 90 of the 95 games. Now, we have kids expecting to come back. Expecting to be in the state semifinals. That’s

for the Panthers, scattering 13 hits and striking out four with two walks.

LaMasters pitched a gem in game one, but came away as the losing pitcher in a 1-0 pitcher’s duel.

The Panther senior gave up only three hits in the game. The lone run was unearned and came on a solo home run in the fourth inning by Harlan’s Kassie Craig.

With two outs in the inning, Craig hit a foul popup behind the plate that was dropped. She hit the next pitch over the fence for a home run.

LaMasters struck out 10 and walked only one in the loss. Chloe Hagle recorded the only hit in the game for the Panthers.

a good thing. We have high expectations for our whole team next year.”

Reaching this year’s doubles semifinals is the Red Oak duo of Micayla Taylor and Grace Blomstedt, seeded second. They faced the Bouchard sisters of Xavier in the match to reach the finals.

1A singles There was also a heavy Hawkeye 10 presence in the singles competition.

Top-seeded Mara Pirscoveanu of Denison-Schleswig topped Glenwood’s Jana King in the quarterfinals, and No. 2-seeded Kate Walker of Red Oak is in today’s semifinals against Xavier’s Allison Jasper.

camp this weekend, the Panthers are off until hosting Shenandoah Monday to start a busy week.

Birchard sees that game as an opportunity to get untracked. The Mustangs are 0-4 in the conference and 1-4 overall.

“We really need to come ready to go Monday,” Birchard said.

That’s followed by a trip to Class 4A Southeast Polk on Tuesday before resuming conference play with a doubleheader against Kuemper Catholic Thursday and Friday at Atlantic.

Birchard said baseball players will participate only in drills at the football

camp in Maryville, not any live scrimmage action.

BASEBALL: Still, Creston had its chances in the game.

The Panthers stranded runners in scoring position in the first, third and fourth innings. After getting the leadoff batter on in the seventh inning, the Panthers couldn’t get a bunt down to advance the runner.

“Give some credit to the young lady (Morgan Schaben) who pitched really well,” McCabe said. “And then ours pitched really well, too. The pitch the girl hit out was a changeup.

Other than that, nice job.

You limit them to three hits, you’ve done a nice job.”

Creston, 3-2 overall and 3-2 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference, travels to Atlantic Saturday to play in the Trojan Tournament.
