GREENFIELD — The engine revs under the hood as James Paup drives his truck down the road to pull over a speeding vehicle in rural Adair County. The sun shines, and he talks with the driver. After several minutes of conversation, Paup prints a warning from the computer in his truck, gives the paper to the driver and takes off.

Paup, the son of Lori and Alan Paup, formerly of Creston, has been a sheriff’s deputy in Adair County for three and a-half years.

“I just didn’t feel I was doing enough,” Paup said.

“I felt like I needed to still contribute to, if not the

entire nation, then at least a local community, and I thought law enforcement was one way I could do that.”

Paup, 29, formerly of Creston, went into the United States Marines immediately after graduating from Creston High School.

He was in the Marines for

four years, where he was stationed in Hawaii and deployed twice. When he left the military, he worked in the information technology field for a time.

Soon, Paup attended law enforcement academy and applied to a position with Adair County Sheriff’s Office. Several weeks later, he

“We are considered officers of the court,” Paup said. “That could mean anything: prisoner transports to get to court proceedings, or it can be civil papers, which is probably the not-so-glamorous aspect of our job.”

Paup, who lives in Adair, and his fellow sheriff’s deputies enforce laws within Adair County, which includes the small communities such as Fontanelle, Orient and Bridgewater.

Local families will learn how to create budgets and dump debt under the guidance of financial guru Dave Ramsey during a nine-week program beginning Sept. 13 at Salem Lutheran Church.

The program, titled Financial Peace University, will meet from 6 to 8:30 p.m. each Sunday through Nov. 8. Participants will watch a series of videos and complete exercises on topics like saving, budg e t i n g , Pantini debt, real estate, retirement and college planning.

Wayne Pantini, Union County Development Association director and the program’s local co-organizer, said this is the third year Salem Lutheran has held the program, and more than 20 families have graduated in the past two years.

Pantini said the program is for people of all ages — high school students preparing for financial independence, college students,

newlyweds, people who have done well financially and those planning for retirement. It’s helped him and his family, too, he said.

“It’s done wonders for our family, just understanding what our prioritites are and sticking to a monthly budget,” Pantini said. “After doing it for several years now, it gets easier and easier.”

What to expect The first session, Pantini said, begins with participant introductions and a video about the background and foundation of the program.

Participants have the opportunity to purchase materials on the first night for $75.

They cost more than $90 online.

Materials include a workbook, the book “Dave Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money,” lesson CDs and other course tools including an envelope system, budget forms folder, progress poster and activation code for interactive online budgeting.

Materials are the only cost associated with the program.

At the end of each session, participants take time to work through and discuss the exercises in the workbook. Each week includes a Please see FINANCIAL PEACE, Page 14

September exhibit features artists’ dollhouses

By KELSEY HAUGEN

CNA staff reporter khaugen@crestonnews.com

Arlene Carlston delicately rearranged the miniature furniture in the living room of a German Tudor-style dollhouse.

“Our friend (Bruce Getty) had cancer, and he had started that one,” said Arlene, pointing to the first dollhouse she ever worked on.

Her husband Chuck chimed in: “He did it for therapy, but then he got so he couldn’t do it anymore, so he asked us if we wanted it.”

“He was a wonderful man,” Arlene recalled.

That’s when the Carlstons began working on Getty’s dollhouse. From there, assembling,

“I don’t think anybody would pay the amount we put into them.”

— Arlene Carlston

Local dollhouse artist

painting and decorating dollhouses became a time-intensive but rewarding hobby for the Creston couple.

Six of the Carlstons’ little houses – five dollhouses and one barn – will be featured as the September art exhibit at the Depot Gallery, 116 W. Adams St., in Creston. The Carlstons will be at the gallery for the First Friday opening from 6 to 8 p.m. tomorrow. At 8:30 p.m., open mic

night will begin at Adams Street Espresso. Both events are free and open to the public.

“It’s a great opportunity for the public to come meet the artists and talk to them about how they do their craft,” said Brian Zachary, gallery manager.

In the past 10 years, the Carlstons have created or renovated about 15 dollhouses. They have given some away as gifts – dollhouses for their great-granddaughters and a barn for their great-grandson. They have donated others to St. Malachy auctions. None have been sold for the Carlstons’ benefit.

“They’re all a labor of love,” Chuck said.

day, Sept. 2, 2015, at Greater Regional Medical Center in Creston.

Services are pending at Creston Richard Lechtenberger, Powers Funeral Home, junc75, of Creston died Wednes- tion of highways 34 and 25.

Today is Sept. 3, the 246th day of the year. There are 119 days left in 2015. Below are news items from the Creston News Advertiser for this week (Aug. 31-Sept. 6) in history.

5 years ago Mary Cusack, the oldest living person in Union County, celebrated her 108th birthday at Creston Nursing and Rehab Center. “I don’t think about it,” Cusack said.

“Would you?”

Cusack was born Sept. 2, 1902, in Creston, and spent all her life in the Creston area.

After graduating from high school, she worked for First National Bank for five years.

In 1927, she married Jim Cusack, and they had four children. Cusack said she didn’t have a secret to living so long, she just lived life.

Dane Wardenburg, a 2006 graduate of Creston High School, Billy Baudler of Nodaway Valley and 18 other seniors had something special in mind for their final season at Northwest Missouri State.

The Bearcats had the chance to become the first NCAA football program to make six consecutive championship games.

Baudler rotated in with the first unit at outside linebacker and was a force on special teams. Nick Neitzel of Creston was a true freshman walkon member of the team as a defensive tackle. Northwest Missouri’s roster also included sophomore defensive end Gary Ewart of Bedford.

Other former Creston/O-M players on collegiate teams included Roger Powell at Graceland University, Casey Tanner at Central College, Kaleb Livingston and Jared Bevins at Simpson College and Ryan Maitlen at Iowa Central Community College.

10 years ago The Creston High School marching band prepared for its debut at halftime of the home football game against Dallas Center/Grimes. Michael Krejci was the drum major, and Mike and Lisa Peters directed the band and colorguard. The show featured music from Cirque du Soleil’s “La Nouba.”

be major hazards. The Red Cross was asking the entire nation for support with donations of money, help or supplies.

High gas prices were hitting the county, schools and city hard. All were looking at cost-saving measures as budgets for fuel were almost double from the previous year. Don Krings, Creston School District business manager, was looking at limiting the number of field trips, limiting the number of buses used on trips and using vans instead of buses when possible. Rick Piel, Union County sheriff, was looking at either admending his budget or asking his deputies to drive less by parking 15 minutes out of every hour.

20 years ago Creston cross country coach Pat Schlapia was not sure which runners were ready for their first meet.

Unseasonably hot temperatures had forced the team to cut back on preseason workouts and even use simulated workouts by running in McKinley Park pool. Schlapia was counting on senior Jennifer Schaefer for the girls and senior Jason Shallenberger to carry the lead on the boys team.

Creston School District, like many other districts throughout the nation, changed its traditional halfday kindergarten schedule to a full day. With 107 students, the change meant adjustments to both curriculum and facilities. Marjorie Scott, a kindergarten teacher with the district since 1966, liked the new full-day schedule.

Scott felt the day was more relaxed with time to explore, more one-to-one time with students and a more efficient use of classroom time.

As an officer of the court, he has to serve paperwork, like divorce petitions, patrol roads, file paperwork and book those who are charged.

“It all varies, really. It’s not like in the movies or even some news articles that you read where we have quotas. We don’t have arrest quotas or ticket quotas,” Paup said. “If I want to be out and be proactive and enforce the traffic laws, I can do that. If there’s a day maybe I don’t necessarily want to do that, as long as I get the day-to-day operation stuff done, he’s (Sheriff Jeff Vandewater) fine with that as well.”

The job varies in calls, as well. Paup said they can get a variety of calls varying in degrees of seriousness.

“We can get anything from a dog biting somebody to, just the other week, we had a pretty bad domestic violence issue we went to,” Paup said.

“It just varies from one extreme to another.”

The same goes to the number of calls. There is no set amount of emergency calls the sheriff’s office receives each day. Some days there can be calls on top of each other, and other days officers don’t have any calls to respond to.

Pros and cons Despite national media, Paup enjoys what he does,

and enjoys doing it well. He said the best part of his job is knowing he made a difference.

“I’d probably say, knowing I made a difference (is the best part),” Paup said. “I know, if I do my job, I sleep well at night.”

However, on the other hand, there are moments when the job of a sheriff’s deputy isn’t inspiring.

“It kind of sucks when you have to arrest a kid’s parent in front of them because that kid thinks the world of their father or their mother, and they may not necessarily know the difference between right and wrong at that state in their life,” Paup said. “They see me or any

other officer come in and put handcuffs on their father or mother and take them away, and they in turn think we’re bad.”

But, despite that, Paup, who is married with a child, keeps going.

“I can look at my family and it gives me a reason to keep doing it everyday,” Paup said. “I see the troubled kids out there, and then the adults that continue to make a wrong decision on a day-to-day basis, and you know, sometimes I wonder what makes them do that?

And so, what I’m getting at is, ... if I’m taking the violent criminals or the drunk drivers off the street, that’s good for me.”

OPINION Carly deserves to be in debate

In the unwieldy Republican presidential field, where attention is as important as money, there was supposed to be a formula for an underappreciated candidate to break out.

It went like this: Excel in the second-tier, undercard Fox debate early in August, get a bump in the polls to break into the top 10 candidates, and arrive on the main stage for the next debate, hosted

by CNN in September.

Carly Fiorina, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO, unquestionably has done the first two, but the last may be beyond her power. It requires overcoming CNN debate criteria that couldn’t be more harmful to her if she had shot CNN honcho Jeff Zucker’s dog.

CNN tried its best back in May to come up with fair, transparent standards for who will occupy the 10 slots in its prime-time debate.

It’s just that in the real world they make no sense.

King Features commentary Rich Lowry

Consider the perversity of the CNN criteria. They will almost certainly exclude Fiorina, even though she is seventh in the current RealClearPolitics national polling average, ahead of John Kasich, Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul and Chris Christie, among others; even though she tied for seventh in CNN’s own national poll in mid-August; and even though she has been surging in the early states, popping up to third place in the latest Iowa and New Hampshire polls, ahead of both Jeb Bush and Scott Walker.

At this rate, Carly Fiorina will hold the dubious distinction of being the strongest primary can-

didate excluded from a presidential-nomination debate in recent memory, although she will get the consolation prize of the CNN undercard event.

What happened? CNN decided to use polls going all the way back to July 16, weeks before the first Fox debate on Aug. 6 scrambled the field. This reaches back to a period when Fiorina was routinely polling at 1 or 0.

On top of this, CNN is only considering polls from select organizations. Some of these polling outfits or news organizations aren’t doing national tracking polls of the Republican race; one of them -- McClatchy-Marist -- hasn’t done a poll since it said it doesn’t want its surveys used to determine debate eligibility; and others seem likely to wait until after the CNN debate to do their next survey.

All of this means, perversely, that there will probably be more polls from before the first debate

included in the CNN formula than after the debate. So, in effect, Fiorina’s performance in the first debate is wiped out.

She won the undercard event by acclamation with a sharp, forceful performance, but she could have done somersaults on stage, recited Daniel Webster’s “Second Reply to Hayne” from memory, beaten Rick Perry in an arm-wrestling contest and played Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 3 in G Major -and still be left out in the cold by CNN. There is an easy fix for this, which is for CNN to acknowledge its criteria have played out differently than it expected and to put more emphasis on recent polling.

Other candidates on the bubble will cry foul, but who can object to a debate that features the current top candidates now, rather than the top candidates from five weeks ago?

There is no good way to handle a field of 17. If it were up to me, I’d have the candidates draw straws and randomly split them up into two debate groups appearing back-to-back in prime time. Admittedly, even this arrangement would have a downside in throwing no-hope candidates together with the candidates who have built serious campaigns and gained a following.

What is manifestly unfair is to watch a candidate rise from the very low single digits into more serious contention as she begins to catch on with voters, and then leave her out of the main event regardless. That is what will happen to Carly Fiorina, unless CNN relents.

Letter to the editor

Curbside recycling should be a choice From Laural Griswold Creston

I am not saying I favor or oppose curbside recycling. I am saying that I believe the decision to do either one is up to the individual and not the town nor the

company involved. To charge anyone for a service they do not want simply because some do want it is not right.

Another point is that it is hard enough for some people to drag that container to the curb; to drag two will be even worse.

Donald Trump announced he’s boycotting Oreo cookies HOLLYWOOD — God Bless America, and how’s everybody?

Kanye West accepted an award at the MTV Awards Sunday. He announced that because of the unique talents only he possesses and the grand vision for America only he can conceive, he’s running for president in five years. It’s obvious to all that Donald Trump is now available in vanilla or in a plain brown rapper.

Donald Trump hit the other GOP candidates for being soft on illegal immigration Tuesday. He’s running hard on the issue. If you call Donald Trump’s campaign hot line for today’s message, the recorded voice instructs you to press one for English, press two for English and press three for English.

Donald Trump announced he’s boycotting Oreo cookies because they just moved their bakery to Mexico. The flight of industry is a growing concern. The makers of Oreos defended their decision, saying it was cheaper to make the cookies in Mexico, then smuggle

them across the border into the U.S. The House of Representatives and Senate will return to work next week where they are expected to take the country to the brink of another government shutdown over the U.S. budget. In the latest poll Congress was given a fifteen percent approval rating. To put that in perspective, Cosby is at sixteen.

Joe Biden was publicly encouraged by leaders of the NAACP to enter the Democratic primaries and run for U.S. president this week. They appreciate the VP’s good work in race relations.

During the last seven years, Joe Biden has single-handedly destroyed the myth of white supremacy once and for all.

September happenings September finds the Chamber of Commerce busier than ever. This is due in large part to the help and assistance that the Chamber gives to the Creston/Southwest Iowa Hot Air Balloon Committee for the upcoming 38th Annual Hot Air Balloon Days Weekend to be held Sept. 18 through 20.

Weather permitting, Balloon Days kicks off with a fun flight of many of the balloonists on Friday evening sometime after 5:30 p.m.

The balloon races will be held on Saturday, Sept. 19 and Sunday, Sept.

20. Depending on the wind direction, many of you can step outside your door and enjoy the spectacular view of balloons soaring across Creston on these days or head up to the airport to watch them take off.

In addition to the balloon races and activities, there will once again be the annual parade of bands, balloonists and other participants on Saturday morning beginning at 10:30 a.m. in uptown Creston. You are invited to have an entry in the parade. Please come to the corner of Howard and Chestnut on Sept.

19 by 10 a.m. to be included in the parade.

On Sept. 19, the Creston Hot Air Balloon Days Show and Shine Car Show will be held from noon until 4 p.m. at the Kilgore RV parking lot located at 601 Sheldon Ave. The Creston uptown will be the site of various activities for spectators of all ages on Saturday as well.

The Flea Market on Maple Street and the Craft Fair in the west depot parking lot will open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, local merchants will be open for your shopping pleasure during the day and the Creston Arts Gallery will be open.

On Saturday afternoon, you can head out to the airport to enjoy the pet show at 2 p.m. Beginning at 2:30 p.m. will be the pedal pull for ages 12 and younger. NightGlow, which

Creston Chamber Ellen Gerharz Executive Director

will begin at dusk at the airport, wraps up the Saturday activities.

A wide selection of food will be available both uptown and at the airport for your culinary pleasures during the event.

Brochures listing the activities are available at the Chamber Office or by visiting the Chamber web page at www.crestoniowachamber.com.

The Balloon Committee and the Creston High School FFA are selling the annual balloon T-shirts, sweatshirts and pins. This is an excellent opportunity for you to show your support for the event, as well as market Creston all year long. You can stop by the Chamber Office located at 208 West Taylor to make your purchase before the event or buy merchandise during the event.

Make your plans now to attend the 38th Annual Creston/Southwest Iowa Hot Air Balloon Days and see for yourself what Southwest Iowa has to offer.

Other activities taking place in Creston during September is the annual Pork Chop Dinner sponsored by the Creston Kiwanis, Lion’s and Rotary Clubs on Sept. 17. It is a great way to kick off the Balloon Weekend.

Nominations Are Needed The Creston Chamber of Commerce and Creston News Advertiser are again seeking nominations for Citizen of the Year; Volunteer of the Year and the Youth Award.

Nominating forms will appear in the paper during the month of September, or you may send a brief letter to the Chamber office outlining why you think the individual you have nominated should be selected.

All nominations must be received at the Chamber Office no later than Oct. 7.

Hi-Five Honor The following individuals and business received the Hi-Five Honor in September. Congratulations go out to Ty Rogers, ISSB; Trina Paulus, Radiology Department, Greater Regional Medical Center; and Garret Geary, Stone Hammons and Matthew Brownrigg at the Strand Theatre. Congratulations everyone.

The Hi-Five for Service allows us to recognize those who make shopping and doing business in Creston a rewarding and positive experience.

Gold Star Business Honored The Chamber honored Summit House, 509 N. Maple St., as the Gold Star Business in September. It was nominated by a fellow Crestonian because of the appearance of the building and property. Congratulations.

August Honor Yards of the Month The following yards were selected as the August Honor Yards of the month. Congratulations to 204 S. Sumner, 1500 Kirby and 316 Russell.

Birdbath blowout!

Dear Heloise: I have a CONCRETE BIRDBATH that is too heavy to empty for cleaning. I solved that problem by using my leaf blower on “high” to just blow the water out. It worked very well. — Renate S., Warren, Ohio Renate, good idea, and a little fun, too! Once the water is all out, give it a quick clean so that yucky slime does not build up.

A safe, effective and nontoxic cleaner? Good old baking soda! Sprinkle a few handfuls in the bowl and add a little water to make a paste. Scrub with a stiff brush, and rinse well with the garden hose.

Change out the water a couple of times per week; scrub once a month. Baking soda is one of my favorite helpers around the house. In a long time writing this column, I’ve saved my favorite uses for and recipes that call for baking soda, and compiled them in a handy pamphlet, which I’d like to share with you! If you’d like to receive one, send a long, stamped (70 cents), self-addressed envelope and $5 to: Heloise/Baking Soda, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001.

BICYCLE SAFETY Dear Heloise: Our road is a busy two-lane one, and a lot of bicyclers use it. Today I saw a rider with a helmet and gloves on, but she was riding on the wrong side of the road. She was riding facing oncoming traffic when she should have been riding with the flow.

Also, she sort of came to a “rolling stop” at the red light, looked both ways but then just pedaled through. Wrong again.

Horoscope Friday, Sept. 4, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Don’t worry if you spend a lot of time daydreaming. But watch out, because it’s easy to kid yourself today. This might apply to your job or to your health.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be careful with financial transactions today because you have a pie-in-the-sky approach to things. Moneymaking ideas or purchases might look better than they are.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the Moon is in your sign, at odds with Neptune and Jupiter. Yes, you feel happy.

However, your judgment might be impaired.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Basically, this is a feel-good day. However, no matter what you look at, you have Vaseline on your lens. You actually cannot trust yourself. Be careful.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Don’t try to talk someone into anything today, and don’t let anyone else talk you into anything. Be careful of get-richquick schemes. Oh yeah.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Be cautious when talking to authority figures today, because you might go out on a limb. And while you’re out there, you might saw the branch off and fall down.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) If someone is spouting rhetoric about politics, religion or racial issues, be skeptical. The truth is, you are vulnerable today to falling for all kinds of psychobabble.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Postpone important decisions about inheritances, shared property, taxes, debt and insurance issues. You are not in the right frame of mind today to deal with these matters in a practical way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is an enjoyable day of chatting with others.

People are telling tall stories and stretching the truth. Enjoy trading lies and talking about the bad old days.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a poor day for making important decisions related to your job or even to your health. Do not trust your Pollyanna approach to anything. Realism might be beyond your reach.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Romance might be a disappointment today. Alternatively, you might be flipped about something, but it’s not real. Be careful, because you can kid yourself today. (Yeah, it’s fun.)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Family discussions are not reliable today. Big ideas just might not fly. Be aware that this is the case, and wait to agree to anything important.

YOU BORN TODAY You are a builder within your family — sometimes literally. Your abili-

ty to create structure is valued, because you lend stability to those around you. This year you will face a major decision. Save your money in the first half of the year and cut down on overhead expenses, because this will help you later in the year. Your integrity and patience will be tested.

National Digest

Ventura dazzles KANSAS CITY — Yordano Ventura struck out 11 over seven sharp innings, the Royals hit four home runs and Kansas City rolled to a 12-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday night.

Kendrys Morales hit a three-run shot, Cheslor Cuthbert added his first career homer, and Ben Zobrist and Lorenzo Cain also went deep as the AL Central leaders cranked out 14 hits.

Ventura (10-7) walked one and hit one while matching a career high for strikeouts set in his last start. The 24-year-old with the 100 mph fastball has not allowed more than two earned runs in his last five outings, and is 6-0 since his last defeat July 20 against Pittsburgh.

Nats hold on ST. LOUIS — Ryan Zimmerman homered twice, then doubled home the tiebreaking run in the eighth inning as the Washington Nationals ended their nine-game losing streak at St. Louis, beating the Cardinals 4-3 Wednesday night.

Zimmerman reached 200 career home runs with his second shot.

Jayson Werth also homered for the Nationals.

Nationals starter Max Scherzer struck out 11, gave up 11 hits and left with a 3-2 lead after the sixth.

Johnathon Papelbon earned his 23rd save in 23 chances, escaping a firstand-third, one-out jam in the ninth. Rafael Martin (1-0) got one out for his first career victory Johnathan Broxton (14) took the loss.

Untimely error CHICAGO (AP) — Kris Bryant hardly had time to enjoy his latest home run.

The rookie third baseman hit a tying drive in the eighth inning, then made a two-out error in the ninth that set up Joey Votto’s three-run homer and lifted the Cincinnati Reds over the Chicago Cubs 7-4 Wednesday.

“It’s tough,” Bryant said. “Obviously, you’re on Cloud Nine when you hit the game-tying home run, then you blow it the next inning.”

Bryant’s two-run shot made it 4-all. The rookie has 22 home runs and 84 RBIs this season.

Rondon, who had a 0.45 ERA since May 25, hadn’t allowed a homer since May 22. J.J. Hoover (7-0) got the win despite giving up Bryant’s homer.

Aroldis Chapman closed for his 27th save.

Jones treated COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones was taken to the hospital because of a headache, his mother told The Toledo Blade.

Florence Jones told the newspaper her son was taken to an emergency room in Columbus, Ohio, and that he should be fine.

Jones is competing with J.T. Barrett to be the top-ranked Buckeyes’ starter when they open the season Monday night at Virginia Tech.

Don’t arrive late.

Creston/O-M’s home opener Friday not only starts a half-hour earlier than normal at 7 p.m. — which is the normal time for Clarinda’s starting time in Class 2A play — but there may not be many stoppages of the clock for incomplete passes.

Clarinda’s unique single-wing running attack featured only two passing attempts in last week’s 34-14 win over Atlantic.

Creston/O-M utilizes a more balanced attack, but emphasizes rushing as tailback Chase Shiltz ran for 100 yards in the 26-7 loss to Norwalk. Quarterback Moritz Johannknecht completed 10 passes to seven different receivers for 101 yards.

“It might be the quickest game you’ve witnessed,” Morrison said. “Both teams want to run the ball. We want to establish the run, and obviously that’s what they do, no matter what the down and distance.”

Zach Carlson led Clarinda’s punishing ground game against Atlantic with 121 yards on 21 carries with three touchdowns. Jacob DeGase had 71 yards on 11 carries while going 1-of-2 passing for 17 yards. Jacob Carlson added 46 yards on seven carries.

The offense employs a “spinner back” that receives the snap and executes a se-

ries of fakes, handoffs or his own carry, all designed on deception and to keep the defense guessing as to the actual ball carrier. The backfield also includes a blocking back, tailback and wingback set off the strong side of the line.

Zach Carlson (No. 44) lined up mostly at tailback.

DeGase (12) or JJ Clark (21) operated at spinner back, and Jacob Carlson (48) carried seven times out

of the wingback position.

Coach Mark Schilb rotated different backfield combinations on a warm, humid evening.

“Clarinda is not as big up front as they were last year with (Jared) DeVoe and (Brook) Stephens, but they flat out play hard,” Morrison said. “They get after you. They dominated Atlantic at the line of scrimmage. It’s going to be a challenge, no doubt.”

Last year

The Panthers lost 36-27 at Clarinda last year after opening the season with a home victory over Norwalk.

Clarinda ran the ball 49 times for 386 yards on the way to building a 9-2 season.

“There were a lot of times last year where we played first and second down good, then all of a sudden they bust a long run,” Morrison said. “We had over-pursuing by linebackers running over

gaps. Defensive linemen were not closing the gap out. We lost a safety (Bryce Briley) with a concussion on the first series and moved people. We were watching the backfield, over pursuing, which allowed them to cut back in lanes. We can’t do that.”

Penalties — 14 for 83 yards — also hurt the Panthers in last year’s Clarinda game. That was also a concern in last week’s opener at Norwalk, with 10 flags for over 70 yards.

“I don’t care who you play that’s any good, being in first-and-15, second-and-20 or third-and-40 like we had once, makes it really tough to convert as an offense,” Morrison said. “We’ve refined some things, how we handle relaying plays to the huddle, for example. You won’t see as many wasted timeouts because the (play) clock is winding down to zero.”

Given reasonable down and distance situations without the penalties, the offense was moving with satisfactory play up front, Morrison added.

Timberwolves set to clash with Bedford 9-11 game shirts to raise

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

Southwest Valley and Bedford enter their week two matchup in Corning in a similar position as they did last year.

Both teams won their opening games last week, coming into the game at 1-0 each for the second straight year.

Both teams are a year older this time around, which could make for a bigger impact for Southwest Valley.

The Timberwolves relied heavily on its freshman and sophomore classes last year.

Head coach Bob Casagrande said the gains and growth shown by this year’s sophomores and juniors since last year has been remarkable.

Sophomore quarterback Chance Cobb completed 1 of 4 passes for 13 yards in the wet conditions last week, while scoring both Southwest Valley touchdowns on the ground.

Junior Jerad Shires carried 13 times for 94 yards against Clarinda Academy, while freshman A i d e n Shires Gaule carried seven times for 74 yards.

Casagrande said, ideally, his team will open up the passing game more. With the wet conditions making the ball slick last week, the Timberwolves stuck mostly with the run game.

“We would have really liked to throw the ball a lot more, but we had about an inch of rain in warmups and it was a mess down there,” Casagrande said. “We were lucky to hang onto the ball when we did.”

Senior Tony Klocke led the defensive effort with 14 total tackles, including three solo stops for a loss. Junior Tyler Means recorded 12 total tackles and sophomore Logan Calkins finished with 10.5 total tackles.

The Timberwolves will try to avenge last year’s 5514 loss to Bedford, in which Cobb finished 15-of-19 for 170 yards and two touchdowns.

One of the biggest keys for the Timberwolves will be slowing down Bedford’s powerful rushing attack.

The Bulldogs ran for 297 yards in last year’s game, led by Justin Folkerts, who carried 13 times for 199 yards and three touchdowns.

Junior Clay Cox led Bedford with 161 yards on 20 carries with one touchdown in Friday’s 35-0 win over Griswold. Folkerts, now a senior, rushed for 72 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries. Senior Sawyer Andresen added 47 yards and two touchdowns on five attempts.

“We just have to read our keys a lot better,” Casagrande said. “Watching film last year, we had guys going in a lot of places they weren’t supposed to go if they were reading their keys. We’ve been trying to work on that.”

Senior quarterback Hunter Russell threw for 67 yards on 3-of-9 passing.

Defensively, Clell Beason led the Bulldogs with 10 total tackles against Griswold. Dylon Davis added a quarterback sack.

Wyatt Dillon intercepted a pass and Caleb Johnson and Sam McMillin each recovered a fumble against Griswold.

Bob McCoy retired as Bedford head coach after last season. The Bulldogs are now coached by co-coaches Matt Ambrose

and Jeremy Nally.

Class A District 8

Nodaway Valley faces an intriguing opponent in West Central Valley at 7 p.m. Friday, but will do so without its leader in senior quarterback Jackson Lamb.

Lamb underwent surgery Wednesday morning for an injury to a finger ligament suffered in the team’s week one loss to Central Decatur.

At the time of the injury, Lamb was 2-of-9 passing for 7 yards. In last year’s 25-14 win over West Central V a l l e y , Lamb Lamb finished 12-of-22 for 145 yards and three touchdowns.

The all-state defensive back will be missed on the defensive side of the ball, as well.

There is good news for the Wolverines, however.

Senior running back Brennen Weiland, who rushed for nearly 1,200 yards in just seven games last year, is expected to return after missing the week one loss.

Weiland had 79 yards on 20 carries in the win over West Central Valley last year.

West Central Valley presents an intriguing matchup for Nodaway Valley, as Wolverine offensive coordinator Tony Hooper is the former head coach at West Central Valley.

The Wildcats opened the season last week with a 30-6 loss at Des Moines Christian.

West Central Valley employed two quarterbacks in week one, as senior John Askren finished 4-of-17 for 32 yards with three interceptions. He added 22 yards on the ground on six carries.

Longtime coach Kirk Ferentz overhauls Hawkeyes

By LUKE MEREDITH AP Sports Writer

IOWA CITY (AP) — It all seemed so very unlike Kirk Ferentz.

There was the 60-yearold Iowa coach, whose approach to football has often been mocked for being too old-fashioned, teasing new “blackout” uniforms in front of his Hawkeyes as a song by rapper Rick Ross played in the background.

A fashion show during fall camp?

That would seem to be the last thing the Ferentz of old would ever allow.

“We had some sharp young guys think about some stuff and come up with some ideas and did a little unveiling with our players. It was well-received,” Ferentz said.

Ferentz couldn’t help himself from chuckling that he found it “amazing” that anyone would be so interested in new uniforms. Still, it was a sign that Ferentz is trying to adapt to changing times after winning just 34 games in the last five seasons.

“It’s a new era, right?

New millennium and all that stuff,” said Ferentz, who will open his 17th season at Iowa on Saturday against Illinois State.

And instead of the new coach many fans were hoping for, Iowa has apparently gotten a new Ferentz.

Ferentz, the nation’s second-longest tenured coach, has spent the last eight months overhauling the program. It began in January,

when Ferentz seemingly acceded to the howls of a frustrated fan base by elevating backup quarterback C.J. Beathard over two-year starter Jake Rudock.

The move came just a week after Tennessee blew Iowa out in a bowl game and was announced in a depth chart released to the media, a first for Ferentz for that time of year.

It was costly, too. Rudock responded by transferring to Michigan.

It was around that time that players and staff members finally moved into the Hansen Football Performance Center, a 76,000-square foot building that, paired with a new indoor field, is as modern as any football facility in the country.

Ferentz and his staff took advantage of the new digs by snagging way more early commitments than they have in the past. The Hawkeyes currently have their best-ranked recruiting class in about a decade as a result.

Ferentz, who visited with a number of schools in the offseason for new ideas, also switched Iowa’s practices from the afternoon to the morning. The move has been met with wide approval by the players, who’ve said they’ve felt fresher as a result of the switch.

“You’re always looking to get better and always looking for better ways to do

PANTHERS: Continued from page 7A

last week when returning center Cody Tanner suffered a high ankle sprain.

“Kaden was out prior to the state fair with a groin injury and then was showing (livestock) at the fair, so he’d missed a lot,” Morrison said. “He had no reps at center since early in the summer at the Northwest camp.

Having another week helps.

It’s a tough position on the line. You have to call out who the combo blocks are going to. That’s something Cody had a lot of experience with.”

Tanner was also slated to play defensive tackle. Sophomore Blake Sevier and senior Curtis Palmer are working at that spot. Junior Keaton Eslinger is now the backup center.

QB injury

The already thin quarterback position, from an experience standpoint, got thinner this week as sophomore Jaden Driskell suffered a knee injury in Monday’s JV game.

An MRI determined a complete ACL tear Driskell and lat-

eral meniscus tear. Surgery will be scheduled Tuesday, with hopes of returning by the baseball season.

Junior Seth Thompson just returned to practice this week from an illness.

The other quarterbacks are freshmen Kylan Smallwood and Bryce Fitzgerald, with Smallwood starting varsity at cornerback with an interception in his varsity debut last week. Junior Brody Frain underwent elbow surgery for an injury suffered in camp and will not play quarterback this season.

Johannknecht, foreign exchange student from Germany, gained valuable experience in the Norwalk game, Morrison said.

“He’ll be fine,” the Panther coach said. “I don’t know what kind of environment he’s used to playing in over there in Germany, but that’s a pretty big venue in Norwalk with the video board and the big crowd.

It was a stepping stone last week. We just have to function better as a team, and I’m confident we will do that.”

It’s a very simple formula Friday. Don’t allow Clarinda to grind out yardage and the clock, which would limit Creston/O-M’s offensive opportunities.

QUESTIONS & ATTITUDE Compelling questions ... and maybe a few actual answers

SPEED FREAKS A couple questions we had to ask — ourselves Is Darlington and the Southern 500 back on Labor Day weekend for good?

3 THINGS WE LEARNED DURING THE OFF-WEEK

You want old-school Darlington? How about David Pearson on the pole in 1975? AP Will rebirth work for Darlington?

GODSPEAK: This is where the Southern 500 was born and raised. It should stay until retirement.

KEN'S CALL: Never say never. So I'll say probably.

Um, for now.

We hope so, but we’ll see. You may recall, just over a decade ago, Darlington lost one of its two race dates while Rockingham was losing both of its races. “Modernizing tradition” was how it was described. NASCAR seemed hellbent on glossing over its roughhouse history and attracting the beautiful people in L.A., Vegas, NYC, etc. But now, old is new.

He's at 10; how many runnerup finishes for Kevin Harvick this year?

Good move?

GODSPEAK: I say he picks up the pace and gets 20.

KEN'S CALL: 14.

It’s worth the effort. All of the retro paint schemes and embracing of history this week might not soothe all the bruised psyches, but if nothing else, it’ll be fun to reminisce and might just sell some additional die-casts.

Nonwinner with best chance this week?

GODSPEAK: If history repeats, I'm going with Kasey Kahne.

KEN'S CALL: Mr. Hunch is thinking Ryan Newman.

Congrats to Kurt Busch?

3. Warning! Warning!

With the break in racing action, we took a closer look at Tony Stewart’s performance to date. The best word to describe it: “dismal.” The three-time NASCAR champ is 26th in points, 59 points behind Danica Patrick. He has two top-10 finishes and failed to finish four races. Yikes.

There were photos circulating on the web of Dale Earnhardt Jr. enjoying his week off down in Key West, where he has a hideaway dwelling. Junior, who is sporting full-beard mode, blends in down there with the locals as he gets around on a beach cruiser bicycle.

A total of 11 Sprint Cup Series teams were issued warnings by NASCAR after failing to meet certain inspection guidelines at Bristol, such as “Geez, show up on time.” Kyle Busch and Matt Kenseth were docked 15 minutes of practice time this week for their inspection no-nos.

3 THINGS TO WATCH 1. Throwback

Well, yeah, why not? The old saying is “third time’s a charm,” but that was invented on behalf of those who started out 0-for-2. Kurt was divorced once, then had that breakup during this past winter with a girlfriend (you might’ve read about it), and now he’s announced his engagement to Ashley Van Metre, who, we’re guessing, will become the first NASCAR wife with a polo pony.

Rob Kauffman

Clint Bowyer

ROB KAUFFMAN VS. CLINT BOWYER: Kauffman is pulling the plug on Waltrip Racing, which means Bowyer is job hunting for 2016.

GODWIN KELLY’S TAKE: Bowyer will land in a good car next year, and Kauffman is going with Ganassi Racing. Bowyer said all the right things, but you know there is tension.

AREA: Continued from page 7A

Junior Knick Badker finished 3-of-7 for 34 yards with one touchdown.

Senior Tim Draper was the leading rusher with 55 yards on eight carries.

Mount Ayr, meanwhile, will look to bounce back from last week’s 36-6 loss to Class 2A second-ranked Albia when the Raiders host Shenandoah at 7 p.m.

The Raiders defeated Shenandoah last year 42-14 in Shenandoah.

Jacob Taylor was 8-of-16 passing for 115 yards in that game, while Kyle Dolecheck carried the ball nine times for 112 yards and three touchdowns to go with four catch- Dolecheck es for 53 yards.

Mount Ayr will need to slow down Shenandoah senior quarterback Jake Johnson. Johnson passed for 133 yards and one touchdown, while rushing for 101 yards and two more scores during last week’s 25-0 win over Oakland Riverside.

Sophomore Kyle Owens added 78 yards and one touchdown on 12 carries and senior Logan Roberts finished with 64 yards on 13 carries. Jordan Miller was Johnson’s top receiving target with 72 yards and one touchdown on two catches.

Eight-Man In Eight-Man this week, Lenox travels to Humeston to take on a Mormon Trail team that defeated Murray 62-44 last week.

The Tigers must stop Mormon Trail’s two-headed rushing attack of Kale Horton and Brett Leer. Leer rushed for 179 yards and two touchdowns on 28 carries against Murray, while Horton scored six touchdowns and ran for 141 yards on 35 carries.

Lenox had a strong opening game from senior quar-

terback Carson Cline, who threw for 267 yards and rushed for 105 yards, scoring a Cline total of seven touchdowns.

East Union, meanwhile, looks to bounce back from last week’s loss to Lenox when it hosts Essex on Friday.

Essex was a 24-14 winner over Lamoni in week one, featuring a balanced attack on the ground and through the air.

Gunnar Glasgo passed for 128 yards and two touchdowns, while Cody Davis carried the ball 17 times for 177 yards and two touchdowns.

East Union had a strong game through the air, as Ryan Collins and Sanden Cheers combined to complete 12 of 20 for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Mason Gossman caught five passes for 101 yards and two scores.

Gabe Nixon added five catches for 63 yards.

The Eagles will look to get their ground game back on track, after rushing for just 65 yards against Lenox.

Murray travels to Wayne after its loss to Mormon Trail last week. Wayne was a 74-26 winner over Grand View Christian.

Murray struggled to slow down Mormon Trail’s physical running attack last week, and must find a way to do that this week against Wayne’s Carson Kiefer.

Kiefer carried 23 times for 317 yards and five touchdowns last week against Grand View Christian.

Murray, meanwhile, got a big game last week from senior quarterback Fisher Decker, who finished 18-of29 for 267 yards and three touchdowns with three interceptions. Junior Jack Jones caught seven passes for 115 yards and one touchdown, while also returning a kick for a touchdown.

things. The world of recruiting has changed dramatically. I think we’ve picked up the pace a little bit. You have to because it’s a national trend, and then this facility has made a big difference,” Ferentz said.

But it’s not as though Ferentz has made all these changes in a vacuum.

Unlike contemporaries like Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops and Georgia’s Mark Richt, Ferentz doesn’t have a ranked team that appears poised to compete for a playoff spot.

Ticket sales have also plummeted in recent years for the Hawkeyes. After years of sellouts, they could have as many as 12,000 empty seats for Saturday’s opener.

And even though the $13 million buyout Ferentz would be owed if Iowa fired him before the season starts apparently makes him safe, change could be on the horizon for the entire athletic department.

Longtime university President Sally Mason retired on Aug. 1 — coincidentally the day Ferentz turned 60. Her replacement could be named as early as this week.

Whoever takes over will surely take a long look at the athletic department and director Gary Barta, who’s come under heavy criticism of late.

An internal e-mail from head track coach Layne Anderson obtained by The Associated Press alleges that athletic department

administrators ordered a female to be hired over male candidates for an assistant coaching job regardless of qualifications.

The Education Department is also investigating gender bias complaints against Barta over his firing of field hockey coach Tracey Griesbaum and other female head coaches.

But Barta’s decision in 2010 to sign Ferentz to what amounted to a lifetime contract — highlighted by that Ferentz-friendly buyout — has been the move that fans have been harping on as Iowa’s fortunes took a downturn.

So even though alternate uniforms, fancy facilities and more aggressive recruiting have been trends for years around the country, it’s symbolic that Ferentz and the Hawkeyes have joined in.

The game has undergone a revolution since Ferentz took over in 1999, and he finally appears ready to accept it.

“He knows that we have to adapt to the current situation,” Iowa running back LeShun Daniels Jr. said. “I never thought we’d do blackout uniforms and stuff like that. I guess he’s sort of changing in his ways.” ___ Follow Luke Meredith on Twitter: www.twitter. com/LukeMeredithAP ___ On the Web: Iowa uniform meeting video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i6ige9fBNE&feature=youtu.be

FIRST FRIDAY: Continued from Page 1

It’s quite a gesture considering the amount of time and money that goes into dollhouse-making. The process starts with buying a dollhouse kit, disassembled, from a craft store.

One dollhouse kit may cost anywhere between $100 and $1,000. After the dollhouse is assembled, the couple paints it, shingles the roof and wallpapers the rooms.

They buy most of the miniature furniture at stores like Hobby Lobby. Chuck said one small light fixture for a

dollhouse is about $40.

“I would estimate if you added everything up in that one, you’d have $1,000,” said Chuck, pointing to the German Tudor dollhouse.

But the dollhouses don’t sell for even close to what they are worth. The most St. Malachy has sold one for was about $400.

“I don’t think anybody would pay the amount we put into them,” Arlene said.

The Carlstons do save money by creating some of the furniture or decor themselves. Arlene enjoys quilting and crocheting, so she

crocheted some of the rugs, which are about the size of her hand. The couple also made a tiny rocking chair using Popsicle sticks and white paint.

“She’s the one who does all the decorating,” Chuck said of his wife.

He does more of the electrical work, such as putting in light fixtures. He said this part is challenging, as you have to hide the wires behind the molding.

“You get frustrated sometimes,” Chuck said.

Nevertheless, the Carlstons enjoyed making each

dollhouse – especially the ones they gave to their great-grandchildren.

One of their masterpieces, a Victorian-style dollhouse with several light fixtures and intricate decor – right down to a porcelain-looking toilet with a tiny roll of toilet paper hanging next to it – won fourth place in the Dollhouses and Miniature Rooms competition at the Iowa State Fair in 2006.

“You can see the work they’ve put into these dollhouses,” Zachary said. “It’s undeniably art.”

A local ministry Brian Jack, pastor at Salem Lutheran Church, completed the program last year with his wife, Cari. He said the greatest takeaway for him was having the peace that comes with budgeting.

“The big gain from the class is the peace of mind you get at the beginning of each month,” he said.

“You save yourself all those little arguments or wagerings, like, ‘Can I spend this?’ ‘Can I get CNA photo by KELSEY HAUGEN that?’”
