Underage drinking risks explained at health forum Study shows 21 percent of teens have binge drank, and 10 percent have driven after drinking alcohol.

During a University of Iowa College of Public Health forum Tuesday, members of the university faculty spoke about issues concerning the younger generation in Creston, with a focus on alcohol abuse.

“What you do in public health is place-based, and in order to really make a difference, you need to know what’s important to the well-being of communities in Iowa,” said Sue Curry, dean of UI College of Public Health. “We try to bring the college to Iowa, and we’ve been doing this within the context of an initiative that we call the Business Leadership Network.”

Miesha Marzell with UI Department of Community and Behavioral Health, gave an alcohol abuse presentation to community members and members of Business Leadership Network.

“I appreciate you coming out and taking the time (to talk with us). Also, I appreciate everyone who took time out of their day to listen today, on that end of things,” said Rich Paulsen, CNA publisher and steering committee member of Business Leadership Network. “We can always learn more and better things all the time, and I think there are ways that working with the university can benefit all of us.”

Beth Kulow, dean of students at Southwestern Community College, was present for the forum, and explained how the college had a dry campus.

“Drinking goes hand in hand with college students, unfortunately,” Kulow said. “I’m not in denial, but technically, we are an alcohol-free campus.”

Kulow also explained

how the college has more of an issue with drugs than with alcohol.

“I think there’s a lot of marijuana usage in the community, and a lot of meth usage in the community.

We’ve not experienced m e t h on campus yet, I mean, from our students,” Kulow Kulow s a i d .

“But, I don’t see alcohol abuse being the prominent problem here.”

This is related to what Marzell explained during her lecture, that marijuana usage doesn’t have the same consequences as alcohol abuse because the perception of harm from marijuana is decreasing, even though it is still a drug.

“There’s not a lot of research that shows that when you are high on marijuana, that you are going out and vandalizing school property or getting into physical fights,” Marzell said. “It doesn’t matter the drug of choice for the teenager, when that brain development is going on, it’s really important.”

However, teen drinking is still a problem. According to statistics gathered by United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 21 percent of teen-

agers have binge drank, and 10 percent have driven after drinking alcohol. Another statistic shows 28 percent of eighth-grade students have tried alcohol, and teen alcohol abuse kills approximately 6,000 people each year.

“Teens and underage drinking is still a public health concern,” Marzell said. “Even though some of this information isn’t new, I just hope it reinforces why we need to talk to teens about leading healthy lives.”

Marzell focused on how parents and other adults directly or indirectly influence teenagers to drink, whether by just having alcohol in the home, or allowing them to drink so adults can be open with their teenager about the consequences.

“More adults are drinking. And, when more adults are drinking because alcohol is cheap and it’s more available, then they have more alcohol in the home, and that’s where underage drinking is indirectly impacted,” Marzell said.

Marzell also mentioned how teenagers are impacted by their friends by overestimating how often and how much their peers are drinking, and therefore try to keep up.

“What the research has shown us is they (teens) typically overestimate what their friends, or what other teens, are doing, so they

“Drinking goes hand in hand with college students, unfortunately.

think everybody in their age group is drinking, and when they drink, they’re drinking a whole lot,” Marzell said.

“The research shows that’s not really the case, but that over-perception really starts to normalize the behavior, and then more teens drink because of that.”

At SWCC, however, underage drinking hasn’t become an issue compared to marijuana, according to Kulow.

“I’m newer to the community, I’m not a Crestonian, I’m a transplant, but I claim it now as my own. I’ve noticed in different areas that I’ve lived in, I don’t see alcohol use really being the substance abuse problem necessarily. There’s a lot of illegal drug usage in my opinion,” Kulow said. “The discipline that I’ve had on campus, I think I’ve had more discipline issues with drugs, not crazy amounts, than we’ve had with alcohol.”

U.S. to import egg products from Netherlands DES MOINES (AP) — With an increasing egg shortage due to the widespread bird flu outbreak, the United States will soon allow imported egg products from the Netherlands to be used for commercial baking and in processed foods.

It’s the first time in more than a decade the U.S. has bought eggs from a European nation, and comes as consumers are seeing a

surge in shell egg prices and a Texas-based supermarket began limiting purchases.

Generally, the U.S. produces enough eggs to meet domestic supply and export more than 30 million dozen eggs a month to trade partners including Mexico and Canada, the largest buyers. But the H5N2 virus — which began to spread widely through Midwest farms in the early spring, including

in Iowa, the nation’s largest egg producer — has left nearly 47 million birds dead or dying.

About 35 million were egg-laying hens that provided 80 percent of the eggs for the breaker market — eggs broken then liquefied, dried or frozen to be used in processed foods like mayonnaise and pancake mixes or sold to bakeries to make cakes, cookies and other products. Because there are fewer

bakeries have been forced to buy eggs by the carton and crack them individually to continue production, Martin said.

Only Canada has been certified to sell liquid, dried and frozen egg products to U.S. companies in recent years. But with manufacturers scrambling, the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, which oversees importation of egg products, announced last week the Netherlands again had been approved to export to the U.S. — something it hasn’t done since 2002.

“Through a rigorous process of verification by FSIS of The Netherlands government inspection system, FSIS has determined that the country’s food safety system continues to be equivalent to that of the U.S., which ensures that product is safe, wholesome and properly labeled,” the federal agency said in a statement.

New Iowa group to push campaign finance reform DES MOINES (AP) — A new bipartisan group in Iowa is pushing for campaign finance reform in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election.

The organization, called “Iowa Pays the Price,” was set to officially launch Tuesday.

The effort is being chaired

by Democrats, Republicans and an independent and is funded by Issue One, a national group also focused on similar issues.

Co-chair Brad Anderson, a Democrat who ran unsuccessfully for secretary of state last year, said the group plans to spend about $500,000 on an educational campaign that will include social media and online videos. They will be working with a research group called MapLight to produce reports on political money spent in Iowa, where the presidential caucuses are tentatively set for February 2016.

Anderson said campaign money turns a lot of voters off.

“I cannot tell you how many doors I knocked on in 2014 where voters said they were so tired of the mudslinging that they were going to sit out the election,” he said.

With 2014’s competi-

tive U.S. Senate race and several closely fought congressional races, Iowa saw significant spending from candidates and outside groups. In the Senate race alone, spending topped $90 million, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. MapLight estimates that nearly $112 million was spent on all federal elections in Iowa in 2014.

Spending has grown with the rise of super PACs — political action committees that can raise and spend unlimited amounts, but cannot coordinate with candidates.

Anderson said the group will also push presidential candidates for their campaign finance reform plans.

Goals include more transparency and steeper penalties for breaking rules.

Anderson said Iowa’s early voting status and tradition of political organizing make it “the perfect place to start a bipartisan grass-roots movement.”

Republican Shawn Dietz, who runs the Franklin County Republican Party and ran unsuccessfully for state Senate last year, is another co-chair. He said voters should know where campaign dollars are coming from.

“Transparency is huge,” Dietz said.

drinking is in our culture, but family connections have a huge impact on preventing risky drinking behavior in underage drinkers.

“The research shows that kids that have that kind of connection with their parents, and are still connected, have been shown to drink

less,” Marzell said. “Just having the family involved, and just doing familial interventions has been known to lower drinking in college populations.”

expire, will begin selling to U.S. companies as soon as export certificate language details can be worked out, FSIS spokesman Adam Tarr said.

That’s expected to happen within a few days.

Seven countries have been approved to import shell eggs to be cracked and used by bakeries and food processors, according to the Agriculture Marketing Service: Chile, Argentina, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal.

But the supply issue isn’t likely to go away quickly, Martin said, noting the bakers association is encouraging the government to approve additional trade partners.

“I’ve been told by the producers it may take up to two years to get back up and running to where they were before they got hit with the flu,” he said.

In an effort to discourage commercial buyers from stocking up, Texas-based grocery store chain H-E-B has limited egg purchases to three cartons per customer.

Texas families and households have access to eggs, our eggs are not for commercial sale,” the company said in a statement. “The signs placed on our shelves last week are to deter commercial users from buying eggs in bulk.”

Meanwhile, shoppers saw the price of a carton of large eggs shoot up more than 120 percent in a month — on average, above $2.60 a dozen, according to Urner Barry, a commodities reporting firm.

The higher prices have driven some consumers to buy specialty eggs including cage-free and organic, which typically cost more but haven’t seen a similar increase because specialty-egg chicken houses haven’t been hit as hard, Urner Barry egg industry analyst Brian Moscogiuri said. He noted that specialty-egg prices are closer to regular eggs, leading some consumers to justify the purchase.

State and federal officials believe the bird flu virus will die off in the Midwest once temperatures remain consistently in the 80s. The frequency of new cases appears to have slowed.

Iowa Gov. Branstad not committing to approving budget Branstad also criticized lawmakers for failing to approve K-12 education funding for the 20162017 school year, but did not say if he would try to call lawmakers back in a special session.

■

DES MOINES, (AP) — Gov. Terry Branstad declined Monday to say whether he will sign off on the entire $7.3 billion spending plan approved by the Legislature last week.

Branstad said he needs to review all the budget bills backed by the Republican-led H o u s e Branstad a n d Democratic-controlled Senate. He declined to say how he will act on key pieces of the compromise plan, which includes $7.17 billion in ongoing spending, as well as $135 million in one-time expenditures.

A key piece in the onetime spending bill is $55.7 million for schools in the upcoming academic year.

The governor did not signal his intent, but said he was not a fan of one-time spending, saying “you really can’t use it for salaries because it’s not going to be there the next year.”

Branstad also criticized

lawmakers for failing to approve K-12 education funding for the 2016-2017 school year, but did not say if he would try to call lawmakers back in a special session.

“The Legislature just completed its work on Friday. I know they had a very difficult time coming together and I know there were some strong feelings on both sides,” Branstad said. “But I’m the chief executive of the state. I’ve heard from schools and I’ve heard from Iowans that they don’t like this constant fight.”

Another item that remains up in the air is a compromise plan to provide funding to two mental health institutions slated for closure. Branstad said it was under review, but noted the state was changing the way mental health services are delivered.

“We don’t want to go back to the way we delivered mental health services back in the 19th century,” he said.

OPINION

The high school valedictory address you weren’t supposed to hear Evan Young was the valedictorian of this year’s graduating class at Twin Peaks Charter Academy High School, in Longmont, Colo.

On May 16, at his graduation ceremony, Evan planned to give his valedictory address. Earlier in the week, he submitted the text of his speech to the principal, as required. Just before the ceremony, Principal B.J. Buchmann told Evan he was not allowed to give his speech. Evan was shocked. He had been practicing for days. He had planned to come out as gay in the speech for the first time, to his own family, to his classmates and to the whole school community.

But Principal B.J. Buchmann would never give him the chance.

He called Evan’s father after reading the draft and told him that Evan was gay. Evan told me on the “Democracy Now!” news hour: “If there’s anything that upset me the most about this whole situation, it was probably that. And I guess what it showed is that the principal had very little respect or understanding for someone who is in my position.” A statement released by the charter school’s board of directors read in part: “The draft

King Features commentary Amy Goodman

speech ... included references to personal matters of a sexual nature. None of these topics are ever appropriate for a speech at a graduation ceremony.”

Evan eventually got to give his speech -- two weeks later. A local LGBT advocacy organization, Out Boulder, had gotten involved and tried -- and failed -- to convince the school to allow Evan to give the speech at another venue.

So Out Boulder hosted a garden party in a backyard of a home in Boulder, where 250 people packed in to hear Evan finally give his address. Among those present was Boulder/Longmont’s member of Congress, Rep. Jared Polis, who is himself gay, and was the first out gay parent in the U.S. Congress.

Evan Young told me the following morning: “It was amazing. I was very nervous, actually ... but when I gave my speech, it seemed like everyone liked the whole

thing, and it was just awesome.”

He received a standing ovation.

Polis presented Evan with special congressional recognition for outstanding and invaluable service to the community.

What were those words that the principal deemed necessary to censor, and which so inspired the crowd at the Out Boulder event?

His speech showed a mature sense of humor, peppered throughout with jokes, but was a deeper, and deeply personal, call for tolerance and understanding.

“On a more serious note, there is something I would like to reveal to you. You may have already suspected this, but I hope this does not change your opinion of me: I am gay,” Evan said in his speech.

“I’ve been attracted to men for as long as I can remember, and I’ve never had a girlfriend because I prefer members of my own sex.”

Evan continued: “And that’s my biggest secret of all: I’m gay. I understand this might be offensive to some people, but it’s who I am.

And whether you’ve always suspected this, or this is a total shock to you, now you know. When I was writing this speech, I was endless-

ly debating with myself whether I should reveal this, on account of how divisive an issue this is and how gay people tend to be stereotyped, and I thought that, if I did, I should repeatedly apologize and beg you guys not to think any differently of me. But then I realized: I don’t have to. I shouldn’t have to. If there’s one thing I learned at this school, it’s that we can still be friends even if we profoundly disagree with each other.”

Congressman Jared Polis has written both the school board and the St. Vrain Valley School District (SVVSD), calling for an investigation into Evan’s silencing.

Debbie Lammers, secretary of the SVVSD Board of Education, went to hear Evan at the Out Boulder event. She told me: “I am disappointed with what occurred, but I am glad that I had the opportunity to meet his parents and see Evan deliver his speech. It is unfortunate that this charter school has taken this step. It has put the family in a spotlight that they did not seek.”

Twin Peaks Charter Academy is just 75 miles, as the crow flies, from the site of the beating and torture

of Matthew Shepard, a young gay man who was kidnapped in Laramie, Wyo., on Oct. 6, 1998. Shepard died of his injuries six days later, in a hospital in Fort Collins, Colo., even closer to Longmont.

The murder of Matthew Shepard became a global news story, showing just how cruel and violent homophobia can be. His murder happened when Evan Young was just 2 years old. Evan’s message of tolerance is the only antidote to that kind of hatred. His classmates needed to hear it, his family needed to hear it, and now thanks to the outcry over his silencing, millions more have heard it as well. *** Denis Moynihan contributed research to this column. *** Amy Goodman is the host of “Democracy Now!,” a daily international TV/radio news hour airing on more than 1,300 stations.

ABC News cut back on political news coverage last week HOLLYWOOD — God Bless America, and how’s everybody?

Vanity Fair sold out Friday with Bruce Jenner on the cover declaring his name is Caitlyn. She could make millions in endorsements and save millions in damages. Now Caitlyn Jenner can now tell her jury that she didn’t cause that car wreck on Pacific Coast Highway last December, some guy did it.

E! Entertainment announced that Caitlyn Jenner’s reality TV show about her transitioning into womanhood will be called Call Me Cait. The reality show’s duration will depend on the ratings. If Caitlyn is serious about keeping up with the Kardashians, she’s going to have to marry Dennis Rodman.

National Doughnut Day was celebrated in coffee shops and doughnut stores nationwide Friday with customers getting free doughnuts of their choice while the supplies lasted. There’s always one spoil sport. Baltimore protestors refused to recognize National Doughnut Day, saying it celebrates cops.

President Obama raised eyebrows in the Jewish community last week when he claimed that he’s the closest thing to a Jew that ever sat in the Oval Office. It didn’t require an eminent historian to dispute this claim. Bill Clinton may have been a little closer to a Jewish person, at least under the desk.

Los Angeles was named America’s most racially diverse city in a poll that was taken by NBC News.

It can create a lot of tension. At

Vons grocery store in downtown L.A., the sign over aisle six says Asian Food, Hispanic Food and Crackers, and you need a prison guard to keep order on that aisle.

The National Football League looks set to enjoy its biggest year in history for TV ratings by the look of advance commercial advertising buys for TV broadcasts. Psychologists claim that football satisfies the lust for war. That might be so, but just to be on the safe side, we also have a bunch of wars.

The Labor Department issued a jobs report Friday hinting that the U.S. economy may be starting to kick into high gear. The report said the U.S. economy added two hundred and eighty thousand jobs last month. However, most of those jobs were Republicans saying they’re going to run for president.

ABC News last week cut back on political news coverage despite the upcoming presidential race because network TV viewers are more focused on the pop culture.

It’s eating Western Civilization alive. If the Bible were written today, the story of Joseph and Mary would be told on the Maury Povich Show.

GOP presidential candidate Lindsay Graham vowed to raise taxes to increase defense spending enough to defeat ISIS. No U.S. agency has enough money. Due

to all the budget cutbacks, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms will be consolidated into the Department of Texas Birthday Parties.

The White House said Friday that Chinese hackers break into U.S. government computers and steal personal data and state secrets of four million federal workers. Last month it was the Russians who did it. Hillary Clinton looks smarter every day for using secret e-mail to conduct U.S. foreign policy.

Senator Lindsay Graham compared Hillary Clinton to North Korea’s Kim Jung Un Friday for her dictatorial manner. Could she possibly be that evil? Imagine the Westminister Kennel Club Dog Show starving the contestants for four days and then throwing a Republican into the middle of the ring.

The Washington Examiner reported Wednesday on a Vatican meeting called by Pope Francis to research ways for the church to recruit bright young men to the priesthood.

Lindsay Lohan was freed from probation for the first time in eight years Monday after her L.A. judge ruled the actress finished all her community service.

ENTERTAINMENT Key responses may unlock the box Dear Readers: A reader asked about how to find out if SAFETY-DEPOSIT BOX KEYS found in a deceased parent’s belongings were current, and what bank they belonged to. Here are a few suggestions: Sheri and Steve S. in Maryland wrote: “Look in the decedent’s bills to see if any banks are charging rent for a safe-deposit box.”

Arnold W. in New York said: “Start with the person’s lawyer, if there is one. Call or go to the bank of the deceased, if you can. Stop at a locksmith, who may be able to identify the key.”

Fritz. A., who practiced many years of probate law in Texas, wrote: “If the safe-deposit box is active, the bank will send an annual renewal notice, so that would answer the question. In some states, the bank is required to stencil its nine-digit routing number on each key. Any bank can decode this number. Put this number into an Internet search program, and it should bring up the bank’s name. Executors should inquire at the state’s unclaimed-property office to see if the decedent had unclaimed property. Banks turn over the contents of abandoned safe-deposit boxes

Hints from Heloise to this official.

“There is an excellent website: www.naupa.org (the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators). This information is available without charge.”

Thank you, readers! There is a lot of good and bad information on the Internet. Please stop and think before using some of it. When in doubt, go (or call) your library, which can help you find the help you need. There are many professional organizations that offer pro bono (free) advice to folks who can’t afford such. Don’t try to do all of this by yourself.

Being an executor isn’t an easy job. Try to do the right thing, and follow the law and the wishes of the person whose will you are handling.

Tampa leads CHICAGO (AP) — Victor Hedman is throwing a party at the Stanley Cup Final, and the Tampa Bay Lightning are having a great time so far.

Hedman had two assists while hounding Chicago’s elite group of forwards, and the Lightning beat the Blackhawks 3-2 on Monday night to take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.

Ryan Callahan, Ondrej Palat and Cedric Paquette scored in Tampa Bay’s second straight win, and Ben Bishop made 36 saves in a gutsy performance after he was questionable coming into the night. Game 4 is Wednesday night in Chicago.

NCAA changes INDIANAPOLIS — The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Committee approved some major changes to Division I Men’s College Basketball on Monday.

The biggest change is the shot clock will now be 30 seconds in length, a reduction from 35 seconds.

Several additional changes were adapted to try to help with pace of play.

Three timeouts, instead of four, can carry over to the second half.

Adjusting the media timeout procedures to allow a timeout called within 30 seconds of a break (at the 16:30 mark) or at any time after the scheduled media timeout becomes the media timeout. Removing the ability for a coach to call timeout when the ball is live. Allowing a total of only 10 seconds to advance the ball to the front court (with a few exceptions).

Reducing the amount of time allotted to replace a disqualified player from 20 to 15 seconds.

The women’s basketball committee approved the change of the game to four quarters of ten minutes instead of two halves of 20 minutes in length.

Royals even MINNEAPOLIS — Kendrys Morales smacked a two-run homer, Jason Vargas fired six shutout innings and the Kansas City Royals defeated the Minnesota Twins 3-1 in the opener of a three-game set.

Vargas (5-2) scattered five hits and didn’t walk a batter for the Royals, who have won two straight on the heels of a three-game slide. Eric Hosmer had two hits with an RBI and a run scored.

Greg Holland blanked the Twins in the ninth for his 10th save of the season.

The victory tied Kansas City with the Twins atop the AL Central division.

Eddie Rosario cracked a home run among his two hits and Phil Hughes (4-6) allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk for Minnesota.

Creston softball made short work of Shenandoah here Monday night, kicking off a busy week of games with a 13-0 shutout of the Fillies.

The game, which lasted only 2 1/2 innings, took less than an hour to complete.

The Panthers, who scored 36 total runs in three games Saturday at Atlantic, continued their hot streak by plating 13 runs on 11 hits. Creston has now scored 13 runs in each of its past three games.

Creston started the game with four straight hits, as Josie Sickels and Taylor Briley each singled, leading to a tworun double from Haylee L a Masters and then N a t a l i e Mostek Mostek knocked an RBI double.

After Brenna Baker grounded out, junior Alli Thomsen hit her first career home run, going opposite field over the right field fence.

“We had the first four reach, got things going,” Creston head coach Mike McCabe said. “Alli had

That was a big hit for her.

Hit the ball pretty hard Saturday a couple of times the same way, so that was good to see. She’s been kind of struggling. I think she gets herself back here

and focuses on softball, she’s been kind of busy with tennis, and rightfully so. That was nice.”

The rally continued as Lexie Little reached on an error and Jami Sickels walked, setting up an RBI

single from Alyssa Higgins. Briley drove in a run with an RBI single, giving the Panthers eight runs on eight hits and one error in the inning.

“It’s kind of contagious, it really is,” McCabe said.

“You get a couple of hits and then everybody thinks, ‘OK, we can do this.’ We kind of got the bats going Saturday and I was hoping it would carry over this week. It did tonight.”

In the circle, LaMasters gave up one hit in each inning, while striking out five and hitting one batter.

Shenandoah’s hit in the third inning was erased on a game-ending double play by Lexie Little, who scooped up a ground b a l l , touched t h i r d Little base for a force out and fired to first to turn two.

The Panthers reached the mercy rule in the second inning, scoring five runs on three hits and two errors.

Jami Sickels, Higgins and Mostek each drove in a run with a single in the inning, while Briley and LaMasters each drove in a run in the inning, as well.

The heart of the Creston lineup — Briley, LaMasters and Mostek — finished the game a combined 6-for-9 at the plate with seven RBI. “I thought Natalie had Please see SOFTBALL, page 8A

Panthers rally past Mustangs in seventh Error on squeeze play sends winning run home

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

Both teams were seeking their first Hawkeye 10 victory, and the Shenandoah Mustangs were three outs away holding a 5-2 lead when the Creston Panthers came to bat in the seventh inning here Monday night.

Twenty minutes later, a stunned Mustang squad was loading the bus for a trip home on the losing end of a 6-5 score.

The winning Panther rally featured two hits, a dropped popup right in front of the pitching mound, three straight bases on balls and the most bizarre squeeze bunt play most fans have ever seen as a game-ending play.

“We’ll take it,” said a relieved Creston coach Steve Birchard afterward. “We had some smart at-bats there in the last inning. We didn’t execute the squeeze very well, but (Dustin) Merritt hustled to get back to third and they didn’t make a play. That was a tough spot for their pitcher there, coming in with the bases loaded and one out. That’s why we were trying to make something happen.”

The win lifts Creston to 1-3 in the Hawkeye 10 and 2-4 overall. Shenandoah fell to 0-5 and 1-5.

After Mustang starter Jordan Miller had given up hits by Conner Pals and Brenden McDowell to start the inning, he was taken out by coach Brett Roberts with the score 5-3.

Spencer Rice had trouble from the start, beginning with an error on Chase Shiltz’s popup near the mound. That put the tying runners on base.

Creston’s Chase Shiltz slides safely into second for a stolen base ahead of the tag of Shenandoah shortstop Jake Johnson in the first inning. Shiltz also reached on an error and scored one of four Panther runs in the seventh inning as Creston rallied from behind to edge the Mustangs, 6-5.

Rice got a strikeout for the first out, but Dustin Merritt worked a walk off a 3-2 count to load the bases. Kadon Hulett did the same, reaching on a ball thrown on a 3-2 count.

On a 3-1 count, Panther starting pitcher Cody Crawford drew another walk to force in Shiltz with the tying run.

In a 5-5 game with the bases loaded and one out, Roberts pulled Rice and put Michael Cisneros on the mound.

Birchard held a brief conference with right fielder Brody Frain near the third-base coaching box.

“Brody is the best bunter on the team, but we talked about taking until a strike and then turning him loose with the squeeze (bunt),” Birchard said.

With a 1-1 count, Cisneros fired a pitch way outside as Frain lunged unsuccessfully with the bunt attempt. Meanwhile, Merritt was barreling down the

third-base line, intent to score on the bunt.

“It was in the other batter’s box,” Frain said. “I tried reaching for it and missed it.”

Merritt put the brakes on and started scooting back toward third base.

“It looked like he was beating whoever was there by the bag, so I’m yelling at him to get back,” Birchard said.

The throw from the catcher didn’t have anyone on the receiving end, bouncing into shallow left field as Merritt got up and quickly r e v e r s e d Merritt field to run home with the winning run.

“I slid down to third and the ball hit the base,” Merritt said.

Pretty soon Merritt was

greeted at home plate by a mob of teammates celebrating a victory that seemed a longshot 20 minutes earlier.

“We need a win in a game like this,” said Frain, w h o pitched two shutout innings of relief of Frain Crawford with no hits allowed and just one walk.

“Frain came in and did a nice job,” Birchard said. “I knew he was capable, and I just kept thinking if we just hold them, we can scratch across a few runs on these guys. They were a pretty solid team and hit the ball tonight. We just had to stay after it.”

Shenandoah outhit the Panthers 10-8 and left 10 runners on base, while the Panthers stranded nine

runners in a game in which both teams were repeatedly threatening to break open a rally.

Finally, in the bottom of the seventh, it happened.

Pals, Creston’s only senior, was a spark at the top of the lineup in a three-hit night with a stolen base.

Four Mustangs had two hits each, including No. 9 batter Ryan Ruzek, who had a two-run single with two outs in the fifth to give Shenandoah a 5-1 lead.

But getting those last nine outs proved difficult for the Mustang hurlers against patient Creston batters.

“We did a lot better job being smart hitters there late in the game,” Birchard said.

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State has hired Murray State’s Steve Prohm as its men’s basketball coach.

Cyclones athletic director Jamie Pollard confirmed Monday that Prohm will replace Fred Hoiberg, who left last week after five seasons to take over the Chicago Bulls.

The 40-year-old Prohm was 10429 in four years at Murray State. He led the Racers to 29 wins, including a Prohm 16-0 regular-season mark in the Ohio Valley Conference in 2014-15.

Prohm takes over an Iowa State team that could open next season ranked in the top 10. The Cyclones return six of their top eight scorers from last season, when they won their second straight Big 12 tournament.

Prohm, who has agreed to a five-year deal with a base salary of $1.5 million per year, will be introduced at a news conference on Tuesday.

“Steve’s personal values, style of play and proven success as a head coach make him an outstanding choice to be our next coach,” Pollard said. “He is a proven winner who is widely respected

Sports briefs Coach hired Creston High School activities director Jeff Bevins announced Monday he has hired a new head boys basketball coach to replace Brett Watson, who resigned his position after one year at the helm.

by his current and former players. We feel Steve is the ideal coach to continue the incredible success that Coach Hoiberg and his players have achieved during the past several years Prohm began his coaching career at Alabama and worked under current Texas A&M coach Billy Kennedy at Southeastern Louisiana and Centenary. Prohm was promoted to head coach at Murray State when Kennedy left for the Aggies.

Prohm led the Racers to 31 wins and a No. 6 seed in the NCAA Tournament in his first season in 2011-12 behind star Isaiah Canaan.

Murray State went 21-10 the following season and won 23 games and the CIT title in 2013-14.

The Racers went on a 25game winning streak at one point last season and earned a spot in the Top 25. But an 88-87 loss to Belmont in the OVC title game sent Murray State to the NIT. Prohm’s teams at Murray State played a fast-paced, high-scoring style predicated on strong guard play.

The Racers averaged 79 points per game last season — good for eighth-best in the country. They were led by a dynamic scorer in sophomore sharpshooter Cameron Payne, who could be a NBA lottery pick in the draft.

“I have no doubt he’ll be successful with the Cyclones. He’s a class individual and represented Mur-

ray State proudly,” Murray State athletic director Allen Ward said. “I will always be grateful for his service. Because of the unusual timing of this move, it’s in our best interest to move very quickly to find a replacement.”

Prohm’s up-tempo style should be a hit at Iowa State, which played a similar style while winning 115 games and reaching four consecutive NCAA tournaments under Hoiberg.

The expectations for Prohm and the Cyclones next season will be high.

Georges Niang is the headline player for the Cyclones, who won 25 games before a stunning loss to 14th-seeded UAB in the NCAAs. Point guard Monte Morris was a second-team All-Big 12 pick, and center Jameel McKay was the conference’s defensive player of the year.

Senior guard Naz Long, top reserves Adbel Nader and Matt Thomas and transfers Deonte Burton and Hallice Cooke round out what’s expected to be the most talented roster in school history.

One of Prohm’s first priorities will be recruiting.

Niang, McKay and Long will be seniors in 2015-16, and Morris could jump to the NBA if he has another strong season. ___ AP Sports Writer Gary Graves contributed to this report from Lexington, Kentucky.

two really good at-bats tonight and really stayed within herself,” McCabe said. “It’s really easy sometimes when you’re batting behind Haylee to think you’ve got to do the same kind of thing. You can’t think that way. You just have to put together good at-bats, put yourself in good counts and hit good pitches. I thought she did a good job of that tonight, got a couple of RBI.” McCabe said a short night of work in the pitching circle for LaMasters was a welcome sight, with a home varsity doubleheader against an improved Kuemper Catholic team Thursday looming before the home John Stephens Softball Classic on Friday and Saturday.

“We’ve got a real improved Kuemper team coming in,” he said.

Adams County Speedway

RACING Update

A double dose with a side of SLMR

By TREVOR MAEDER Adams Co. Speedway

CORNING — It had been almost a month since Mother Nature allowed for a full slate of races to be completed at Adams County Speedway.

Rain took Adams County Speedway by storm on May 23, prompting track officials to call it a night after the Stalker Chevrolet B-Mod feature, meaning the next event would consist of double features for the other classes.

Mother Nature won again last week as wet conditions forced another cancellation, pushing the double features back one more week.

The Northland Oil Pro Stocks, Chat Mobility Hobby Stocks and POET Biorefining Modifieds all ran double features on Saturday night, while the Super Late Model Racing Series (SLMR) made their first appearance of 2015 at Adams County Speedway in a 25-lap, $2,000 to win, nonpoints race.

Northland Oil Pro Stock Saturday night’s action began with the May 23 make-up feature race for the Northland Oil Pro Stocks. Early on, it was evident Kevin Sharp and Joe Zadina had the cars to beat.

Sharp quickly worked his way from his fifth-place starting position up into the

POET Biorefining Mods Two-time Stalker Chevrolet B-Modified track champion Jon Plowman picked up his second win in just his third start at Adams County Speedway in his POET Biorefining Modified on Saturday night.

Plowman started inside of row number two and quickly maneuvered his way into the front, where he would not look back, holding off a late charge from defending champion Jesse Dennis on his way to victory in the first of two A-Mod features. Dennis finished second followed by Clint Homan, Jeff Wiggins and John Davis rounding out the top five.

John Davis may not have been at the track every week at Adams County Speedway, but he proved on Saturday night that when he does show up, he can win.

Davis started on the pole position and would be forced to hold off daring pass attempts from Jeff James and Jesse Dennis on his way to his first feature win of the 2015 season. Dennis walked away with his second runner-up feature finish of the night. The Van Eatonville Mafia of Jeff James and Todd Van Eaton finished third and fourth place respectively and Josh Most came home fifth.

Havens wins again Wiota native Kody Havens

lead spot, where he would be forced to hold off a great battle from Joe Zadina, Jason Rold and Brad Derry on his way to his first feature victory of the 2015 season.

Zadina finished second, followed by Jason Rold, Brad Derry and Jerry Pritchett rounding out the top five.

Championship contenders Greg Miller and Clay Mercer found themselves in trouble early on when an accident collected them both, resulting in Miller and Mercer coming home from the first feature in ninth and 14th place respectively.

2012 track champion Jason Rold has won his heat race every week he has been at Adams County Speedway. He was able to parlay that fortune into a feature win in the second Northland Oil Pro-stock feature on Saturday night.

Just like in the earlier feature, the race was a four-car breakaway between Rold, Sharp, Derry and Zadina.

Rold, who was also the features’ pole sitter, began to distance himself from the field as the laps wound down. Rold, however would have to hold off a last-lap surge from Sharp in order to collect his first feature win of 2015. Sharp came home second followed by Joe Zadina in third, Brad Derry in fourth and Chad Helvie in fifth.

captured his first feature win at Adams County Speedway on May 23 in a rain-shortened event.

He proved on Saturday his victory was no fluke, picking up his second consecutive win.

Havens battled throughout the majority of the race with points leader Josh Most. Havens regained the lead from Most with a daring move on a restart and collected another feature win.

Most, Jerod Weston and Blain Petersen battled fiercely for the runner-up spot, but Weston won the battle followed by Most, Petersen and Ryan Jenkins in the top five.

Ramsey sweeps As the weather gets hotter, it appears Bedford’s Luke Ramsey is doing the same.

Ramse finished second the last night out at ACS, losing an intense last-lap battle with Jeremy Purdy.

On May 23, it seemed Ramsey had the car to beat before rain cut the night short. Last week Ramsey took advantage of the rainout by traveling to Nebraska and picking up the feature win at McCool Junction.

Ramsey wasted no time in the first feature, quickly moving up from sixth place into the lead position. Ramsey was be followed closely throughout the first feature, but was able to hold off the hungry

pack to collect the elusive first victory of 2015. Jeremy Purdy finished second, followed by McAtee, Myers, and Andy Davison.

The Chat Mobility Hobby Stocks second feature was filled with excitement.

It looked throughout the race as if recent high school graduate Buck Schafroth would cruise to his first career feature win. Schafroth started outside of the front row and quickly overtook pole sitter Chris Bates and began to distance himself from the field.

The tides quickly turned, however, as a spin by points leader Davison brought out the caution flag, leaving Schafroth to duel with the likes of Ramsey, McAtee, Purdy and Myers.

Schafroth and Ramsey ran door to door for most of the final three laps, with Purdy and McAtee lurking close behind them.

It appeared as if Schafroth had made the winning move by sliding up in front of Ramsey at the entrance of the backstretch with two laps to go. Ramsey, however, flipped the script on the final lap, making a last-chance move to the inside of Schafroth, nipping him at the line in a photo finish, thus sweeping the Chat Mobility Hobby Stock features. Schafroth picked up a career best second-place fin-

ish followed by Purdy, McAtee and Auten rounding out the top five.

Zeitner wins SLMR Corey Zeitner has made two appearances at Adams County Speedway in 2015 and has won two feature races.

Zeitner’s most recent victory coming in the Super Late Model Racing Series first trip of 2015 Adams County Speedway sponsored by Budweiser.

Zeitner took advantage of his front starting position and never looked back, picking up his first SLMR victory of 2015.

RC Whitwell took the runner-up spot, followed by Tad Pospisil in third, Josh Krug in fourth and Ben Schaller in fifth place. 2014 SLMR Series Champion and former Adams County Speedway Track Champion Kyle Berck finished in sixth place.

This week Saturday night at Adams County Speedway brings us Southwestern Community College Night, featuring kid’s race car rides. All students Kindergarten through college get free entry into the grandstands. The Coors Light Silver Bullet Late Models will run their double features. Hot laps will begin at 6:30 p.m. followed by racing beginning at 7.

PEOPLE/NEWS Book discussion scheduled at Country Life Center Public libraries in Adair County are encouraging everyone to read the book “The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry” by Gabrielle Zevin.

At 6:30 p.m. July 14, people who have read the book will meet at the Henry A. Wallace Country Life Center to discuss it.

All readers in the surrounding area are urged to get a copy of the book soon.

You could borrow the book from the libraries in Adair, Fontanelle, Greenfield, Orient or Stuart, buy the book for $5 from one of the libraries or purchase the book on your own. Everyone from neighboring communities is encouraged to participate in this new literary event.

Anyone who has read the book will meet at the Henry A. Wallace Country Life Center on July 14 and join other readers in discussing the book in small groups.

Appetizers, desserts and beverages will be served.

Reservations are appreciat-

ed and there is a charge of $8.

Orient Public Library Director Sharon Mensing said the book has appeal for a wide range of readers with a little suspense and romance in a bookstore setting. The bookstore owner is good at matching people with books despite his grumpy personality. Then one day a package arrives to change his outlook on life.

People who don’t want to commit to belonging to a book club will enjoy the beautiful, rural setting of the Country Life Center. Book clubs, ladies groups, friends and relatives will all want to be part of this event.

Registrations are appreciated and can be made by calling 641-337-5019 or emailing lisaswanson@wallace.org. The Country Life Center is located at 2773 290th Street, Orient. For further questions, contact any librarian or Sharon Mensing at OMpubliclib@yahoo.com.

Iowa school officials call for cameras to help enforce law MASON CITY (AP) — Cameras are needed to help enforce an Iowa law that increased penalties for drivers who illegally pass by school buses whenever they’re stopped, according transportation administrators at several school districts.

Under the state law, commonly referred to as Kadyn’s Law, driving privileges are suspended for 30 days for a first conviction, increasing to 90 days for a second conviction and 180 days for a third conviction.

The law was prompted by the 2011 death of 7-year-old Kadyn Halverson, who was hit by a vehicle as she crossed a rural road to board a school bus.

Randy Meyer oversees transportation and ground operations at Mason City and Clear Lake schools said an exterior camera on

the buses is needed to help identify more violators, the Globe Gazette reported.

Without the camera, it’s hard to identify a vehicle in the split second a violation occurs.

Only about 10 percent of drivers who illegally pass the buses get reported to law enforcement.
