Creston READS program in need of more volunteers

By KELSEY HAUGEN CNA staff reporter

khaugen@crestonnews.com

At 6 and 7 years old, children are at the optimal age to develop the skills necessary to become successful readers.

Creston’s Read, Enjoy And Develop Success (READS) program connects first graders at Creston Elementary and St. Malachy schools with adult volunteers who read with

them for 30 minutes once a week.

Right now, the program is in need of more volunteers.

“Many Mansour h a v e been doing it for 10 or more years, but we’re always looking for new volunteers,” said READS coordinator Chris Mansour.

“It’s about spending time reading with the student, and it’s also about the student forming a relationship with a caring adult.”

Currently, Mansour said about 65 volunteers have signed up for both schools, but they need 112. The program begins in November and will run through April.

“It’s important because it helps students improve their reading skills – you might be helping that stu-

dent down the line,” Mansour said. “It’s also important for the student to know someone else cares about them enough to show up every week.”

Linda Huffman, a retired Creston Elementary teacher, has been a READS volunteer for about seven years.

A fire in the home is the biggest disaster threat to American families, more of a risk than floods, hurricanes or tornadoes.

According to the National Fire Protection Association, roughly half of home fire deaths result from fires reported between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., when most people are asleep. Having a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a reported fire in half.

Fortunately, most home fires can be prevented. Oct. 4-10 is National Fire Prevention Week and the Red Cross hopes Iowans will use this week as reminder to take steps to keep themselves and their families safe.

To help avoid a fire in the home: • Install smoke alarms on every level of the home and outside each sleeping area, placing them on the ceiling or high on the wall.

• Put a smoke alarm inside every bedroom.

• Test the smoke alarms regularly. Install new batteries every year.

• Get new smoke alarms every ten years.

• Develop a fire escape plan and practice it.

• Keep items that can catch on fire at least three feet away from anything that gets hot, such as sources of heat or stoves.

• Never smoke in bed.

• Turn portable heaters off when leaving the room or going to sleep.

Despite forecast, South Carolina ordeal far from over COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina was expecting sunshine Tuesday after days of inundation, but it will still take weeks for the state to return to normal after being pummeled by a historic rainstorm.

Even as the rain tapered off, officials warned of the likelihood of new evacuations — such as one ordered Monday afternoon in one of two towns east of downtown Columbia where two dams were breached.

State expects sunshine today, but more flooding, displacement of residents could be in store for downstream areas.

■

The governor warned communities downstream that a mass of water was working its way through waterways toward the low-lying coast — bringing the potential for more flooding and more displaced residents.

“This is not over. Just because the rain stops does not mean that

we are out of the woods,” Gov. Nikki Haley said Monday.

South Carolina’s geography and poor spending on infrastructure left several town and cities like islands after roads washed out and creeks topped bridges.

One of those cut-off communities was Manning, the county seat

of Clarendon County, about 60 miles southeast of Columbia.

“I fear the worst is to come. We have a power substation under water. No telling when that thing gets fixed,” Clarendon County Sheriff Randy Garrett said Monday.

Water distribution remained a key problem for Columbia, with as many as 40,000 homes lacking water service. The rest of the city’s 375,000 water customers have been told to boil the water for at least one minute before using it for

drinking or cooking.

Mayor Steve Benjamin said Tuesday that the order is likely to be in effect for “quite some time.”

The city was planning to open more water distribution centers.

Meanwhile, storm water continuing to drain through the area remained a concern.

“We still have some infrastructure issues. We still have water Please see SOUTH CAROLINA, Page 2A

DES MOINES (AP) — Gov. Terry Branstad has reiterated he does not have the legal authority to stop a Planned Parenthood affiliate in Iowa from receiving state funding, despite public calls to do so from presidential hopeful Bobby Jindal Branstad and others.

Branstad said Monday his office has spoken with the Iowa Attorney General about the state’s options in removing taxpayer funding that Planned Parenthood of the Heartland receives for Medicaid ser-

vices.

He says the state would need to show Planned Parenthood has violated terms of the grant money it receives.

Branstad emphasized no state dollars are used to fund abortions.

Republicans around the country have targeted Planned Parenthood after several videos were released by an anti-abortion group. Louisiana Gov. Jindal and Repub- Jindal lican legislators in Iowa have asked Branstad to cut funding.

Iowa legislators to consider tax break for manufacturers DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa state legislators are set to consider a proposal that would expand tax exemptions for manufacturers and lower their tax burden by up to $46 million.

The Des Moines Register reports the proposal will go before legislators next week. Current law exempts certain items used during manufacturing from taxation and instead taxes the final product, and the proposal would expand the number of items qualifying for exemption.

Iowa Association of Business and Industry President Mike Ralston says there has been talk for years on how to update the law for newer technologies.

The proposal will be con-

sidered by a legislative committee that clarifies existing law. Democratic state Sen. Joe Bolkcom of Iowa City says the move is an effort to circumvent the legislature, but Department of Revenue spokeswoman Victoria Daniels says the proposal doesn’t create new tax policy.

coming down from the Upstate,” Benjamin said.

On Monday, officials brought bottled water and portable restrooms for 31,000 students at the University of South Carolina, and firefighters used trucks and pumps to ferry hundreds of thousands of gallons of water to Palmetto Health Baptist Hospital.

At least 11 weather-related deaths in South Carolina and two in North Carolina were blamed on the vast rainstorm, including those of six people who drowned in their cars in Columbia alone. A solid week of rainfall also sent about 1,000 to shelters.

Much-feared Hurricane Joaquin missed the East Coast, but fueled what experts at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration called a “fire hose” of tropical moisture that aimed directly at the state. By Monday, the heaviest rains had moved into the mid-Atlantic states, but not before making history in South Carolina.

The 16.6 inches of rain that fell at Gills Creek near downtown Columbia on Sunday made for one of the rainiest days recorded at a U.S. weather station in more than 16 years.

John Shelton of the U.S. Geological Survey says flooding can be a concern for any urban area, with an abundance of concrete covering soil that would otherwise act as a sponge.

But the multitude of waterways in Columbia also makes the city a prime target, as rainwater flowing toward a creek or river gets waylaid on roadways.

“The fact is that we’re getting six months’ worth of rain in two days that’s falling in an urbanized area,” Shelton said.

“This was kind of the perfect storm.”

The governor has said the deluge is the kind of storm seen only once in 1,000 years.

The state Department of Transportation said nearly 500 roads and bridges were still closed Tuesday morning.

Many of those were in the Columbia area. A 90-mile stretch of Interstate 95 was still closed between Interstates 20 and 26 due to flooding and overall poor road conditions.

Officials warned residents not to try to drive through or around standing water and debris.

Power had been restored to most of the nearly 30,000 customers who were without electricity at the storm’s peak.

Trial in federal lawsuit against Iowa zoo opens CEDAR RAPIDS (AP) — A California veterinarian says all the animals at a northeast Iowa zoo at the center of a federal lawsuit should be removed and sent to sanctuaries.

The Des Moines Register reports that veterinarian Jennifer Conrad’s testimony came Monday in the opening of lawsuit’s trial.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund and several Iowa residents sued Cricket Hollow Zoo in

Manchester and operators Pamela and Tom Sellner.

The lawsuit alleges that lions, tigers, gray wolves and lemurs suffer physical and mental distress in the zoo and seeks to keep the operation from possessing endangered species.

Conrad said the Sellners regularly fail to protect animals from disease and injury, noting that five tigers have died at the zoo since 2013. She says none were tested to find a cause of death.

In another downstream area, Lake City, the flooding left a brown four-door sedan bobbing with its hood angled down at the road leading to Lake City High School, the site of a shelter that housed more than 100 people Monday. Lisa Singletary, 34, trudged past the car through water about 4 feet deep to reach the shelter after her sister’s apartment flooded.

Singletary said she pushed through the grimy water on Sunday with her sister and their six children, ages 1-18.

She and her sister then returned for everything they could carry.

“We had to really wade in the water. ... We had to hold the kids up from really getting wet and everything,” said Singletary, who was visiting for the weekend from nearby Johnsonville.

The two women filled plastic trash bags with “toothpaste, toothbrush, wash cloths, towels, blankets, pillows, clothes, socks, shoes,” Singletary said.

“We brought everything that we could have brought.”

the latest evacuation rattled residents who thought the worst had passed after a weekend of hundreds of water rescues.

James Shirer saw the dam along Rockyford Lake in the town of Forest Acres fail Monday, causing the 22-acre lake to drain in 10 to 15 minutes.

“It just poured out,” Shirer said.

Speaking of the rains, he said, “They’ve wrecked the dams; they’ve ruined all of the bridges.”

a great opportunity to encourage teens to become regular library users.

Strong reading skills are critical because they translate into better performance at school and better preparedness for careers. This is why it is important to take advantage of teen read week and show teens that reading is a fun and relaxing activity they can do for free.

Parents and guardians of teens are also encouraged to celebrate teen read week at home by using any or all of these ideas: set time each day for the family to read; give books or magazine subscriptions to your teen as a gift or reward; share your favorite book with your teen; go online with your teen to learn about new books or authors by visiting www.ala.org/yalsa/ reads/4teens, or use YALSA’s free teen book finder app; build an in-home library (thrift stores and yard sales offer inexpensive ways to do that); listen to audiobooks on trips; create a cozy reading corner somewhere in your home; use meal time to talk about books that you’re reading; be role models by making time to read, too; incorporate reading into teen chores, such as reading a recipe when cooking, reading instructions for how-to projects, reading sales fliers to develop a shopping list and more.

DNR program The Gibson Memorial Library will present “Iowa Wildlife: A Fall DNR Program” from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 14 at the library. Hannah Kendrick from the DNR will have exhibits and information for all. She encourages questions from hunting to migration and exhibits will also be on display. The program is free and no preregistration is required.

OPINION

For my generation, Oregon shooting holds a call to compassion Putting words to something like Thursday’s mass shooting is next to impossible. Inadequacy is inevitable.

But it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.

It’s been five days since a gunman killed nine people at Umpqua Community College in Oregon.

And for some reason, this shooting seems like a tipping point. Many people aren’t just talking about this one. They’re talking about it in the context of all the shootings that have preceded it. Some, including the president, are saying America struggles with far more frequent shootings than other countries.

And they’re looking for answers.

We as humans somehow immediately try to fit events like these into an overarching political narrative.

Some say we need stricter gun laws.

Ian’s inklings Ian Richardson staff writer

Others say we don’t. Were Christians being targeted? Did mental health play a role? Maybe it’s our way of coping, sorting through the greater meaning of it all. Maybe it’s our eagerness to fix a problem as soon as it happens. Maybe it’s because we are otherwise powerless, standing on the sidelines, watching the media reports and praying prayers that we may never see or hear make a difference.

But I’m not going to debate the politics of mass shootings here. For one, it’s out of my range of knowl-

edge. For another, when I look at a shooting like this, it’s not the politics that I see.

It’s the people.

It’s hard to ignore that this and many recent mass shootings include instigators from my generation. The Oregon gunman was 26.

Two months ago, the gunman who killed nine people at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, was 21. The gunman who killed 12 people in an Aurora, Colorado, movie theater in 2012 was 27.

When I consider that I’m 23, I can’t help but think: They were all too young.

As someone near their age, I wonder what it would have been like if they were one of my friends.

And I sympathize with the lost, confused state that can drive some-

one that young to the edge like that. The loneliness, the rejection, the thirst for revenge or fame or whatever that takes people that far.

And I wonder, what could I have done to help?

My response, however inadequate it may be, is to think about how I can reach out to those around me who might be experiencing similar feelings. It’s loving my neighbors in the one-on-one, day-to-day relationships and making them feel valuable. That is where lives are changed, and I think we often underestimate its power.

I’m not saying this is everything that we could or should take away from Thursday’s shooting. That would be an oversimplification of a multifaceted problem, one with many variables that a 23-year-old

who lives more than 1,500 miles away from UCC has no place to offer commentary on.

But I will say that if I, or you, can do anything to help someone right here in Creston, Iowa, who’s near the edge, someone who underneath the surface might be considering instigating a shooting, contemplating suicide or battling depression or loneliness, then we have made America in 2015 a better place.

My prayers go out to the families of the victims of the Oregon shooting, and my prayers also go out to all who feel confused, alone or rejected, wherever they may be.

You are not in this alone.

Hurricane Joaquin spun up the Atlantic off the Eastern Seaboard HOLLYWOOD — God Bless America, and how’s everybody?

Hillary Clinton said Thursday it’s insane for some Americans to think they have a legal right to carry an AK-47 machine gun strapped over their shoulder while they’re walking down the aisle at the grocery store. It’s why no one likes her. Just once could she let the Cracker Aisle be the Cracker Aisle?

Hurricane Joaquin spun up the Atlantic off the Eastern Seaboard Sunday. It sent high surf and heavy rain ashore. Most Americans just assumed that Joaquin would slip into the U.S. through the side door, but if it were going to be a direct hit on the United States, it would be named Hurricane Mohamed.

Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence gave an interview to Entertainment Weekly Thursday on the eve of the release of her latest Hunger Games movie. Jennifer declared that if Donald Trump gets elected president, it will be the end of the world. No one even knew she was in the country illegally.

Donald Trump led the GOP field by a wide margin in Thursday’s nationwide Pew poll. Just the day before, a word association poll taken of American voters found that the words most associated with Donald Trump are the words idiot, jerk, stupid and dumb. In other words, he’s as good as elected.

Rap mogul P. Diddy announced

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

he’s endorsing Donald Trump for president Friday a week after Kanye West endorsed the Donald.

The rap stars could sway a lot of black votes. Republicans haven’t had the moral high ground in race relations since Abe Lincoln’s second term ended in an actor’s strike.

GOP candidate and world-reknowned brain surgeon Ben Carson surged to second in the polls after he stood by his anti-Muslim comments last week. He’s also said that prisons turn people gay and that Obamacare was the worst thing to happen to America since slavery. The secret to Ben Carson’s wild popularity among the Republicans is that he’s examined enough brains to know how white people think.

President Obama hosted a press conference on Friday on the Middle East crisis. Reacting to the Russian bombing of U.S.-backed rebels in Northern Syria and the arrival of Iranian troops who will attack the U.S.-backed rebels, the president invoked the Obama Doctrine. It states you can’t win them all.

President Obama in his press conference Friday cited Russia for bombing U.S.-backed rebels in Syria but he refused to establish a no-fly zone to protect them.

His threats aren’t widely respected anymore. The red line that President Obama drew in Syria two years ago is now a Russian landing strip.

The White House stated Friday U.S. interests in Syria entail Bashir al-Assad being overthrown and replaced by a representative government. We only want what’s best for Syria. It’s important to remember Syria ultimately belongs to the Syrian people and if fracking turns up nothing, we’re leaving.

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Tuesday the Benghazi Committee succeeded in shredding Hillary’s poll numbers. Democrats erupted over the gaffe. National Geographic is now planning to shoot a re-make of the movie Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, only with an all-baboon cast.

Hillary Clinton’s operatives in Nevada were caught on videotape illegally campaigning for her during a drive to register Hispanic voters. No one was asked if they were citizens. The Democratic Party used to enjoy the advantage of having eight children in every family, but now they simply order in.

Pope Francis urged wealthy nations to join the fight to feed the world’s hungry. The movement is spreading. At the British Oscars telecast, Keira Knightley made an appeal for the children of Africa and the children of Africa pitched in and today Keira Knightley is receiving the nourishment she needs.

38, leaving a legacy of hit songs including “Twist and Shout,” ‘’Are You Lonely for Me,” ‘’Tell Him,” ‘’I Want Candy,” ‘’Hang on Sloopy” and “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love.” The musical opened off-Broadway in 2014 with a book by Daniel Goldfarb and arrangements by Garry Sherman, who worked with Berns on many of his hits.

The new producing team also includes Joe Grano, a producer of the Tony Award-winning musical “Jersey Boys,” and Maureen Van Zandt, Steven’s wife who is co-artistic director of Renegade Theatre Company and who brought Steven to the off-Broadway production.

“Bert Berns died so young, so tragically young,

that even within the industry, only the insiders know about him. He was a phenomenal talent. The list of songs was remarkable,” said Steven Van Zandt, who also credited Berns with bringing Latin rhythms and scales to the mainstream.

“It’s a great show, first of all. If it wasn’t entertaining, none of this would matter,” said the former “Lilyhammer” star and Bruce Springsteen guitarist who produced the recent reuniting of The Rascals. “It has to be entertaining first, but if it can teach us a little history accidentally or in the meantime, that’s nice, too.”

The new production is still many months away and no casting was revealed or specific dates.

The E Street Band member and the former musical director of David Letterman’s late night show have signed on to produce the jukebox musical “Piece of My Heart: The Bert Berns Story,” aiming for Broadway next year under the direction and choreography of Denis Jones.

“Rock ‘n’ roll has always been my passion and this man — Bert Berns — is a sort of an unsung hero,” said Shaffer, who played keyboards and conducted “Godspell” when it first arrived on Broadway. “He wrote so many songs that meant a lot to me when I was a kid. I didn’t know at the time that so many were written by him.”

Berns died in 1967 at

Flushing cat waste Dear Heloise: To dispose of CAT WASTE from the litter box, I scoop every day and flush it down the toilet. No storage of waste, and no odor.

— Virginia D., Omaha, Neb. If it’s only the waste and not the litter, then you should be OK doing this.

There is a concern about flushing the “waste” of cats, as they can have Toxoplasma gondii, which can come out (and survive) in their waste.

If flushed, it may get passed on through water sources to some wildlife, notably the sea otter. The chances of your cat having it are small, and even if infected, the contagious cycle time is less than a month.

The other concern is the litter itself. Many flushable ones are just that, but do read the instructions on the packaging. Flushing the wrong type of litter can cause plumbing problems! — Meow, meow, Heloise LOST-RING WARNING Dear Heloise: I took off my wedding rings in the car and put them on the seat between my legs to apply lotion to my hands. I forgot about them, and when I got out of the car, the rings evidently went with me.

I was not aware until a few days later, after searching the

FAMILY CIRCUS® by Bill Keane

Hints from Heloise house and my pockets. I remembered that when I got out of the car, I’d heard a faint noise, like something hitting the pavement. I never realized it was my rings. I placed an ad offering a reward, but had no results.

They were of great value to me monetarily and sentimentally because they were my mother’s rings. — Jo T., Waco, Texas Oh, Jo, I’m so sorry! This is exactly why I DO NOT take my rings off to wash my hands or apply lotion. If I must, I hold them between my lips or under my arm. I’d rather clean my rings than lose them. — Heloise SAMPLE PACKETS Dear Heloise: I pick up sample packets typically attached to information cards.

(HELOISE HERE: Makeup, hand lotion, perfumed hand lotion, etc.) Sometimes the amounts in the samples are too much to use at one time.

I keep the “gummie” used to stick the packet to the card

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

and attach it to the back of the packet, then stick it to my mirror. I use all of it because it’s right in front of me, and I don’t lose any from leakage.

— Mitzi H., Manhattan, Kan. AVOID OVERDRAFT FEES Dear Heloise: I keep $100 in my checking account that is not entered in the checkbook register. This helps me to avoid overdrafts. — Robert D., Findlay, Ohio Very smart. I always “round up” the amount, as small change adds up to a little cushion in the balance. — Heloise DRYING PAINTBRUSHES Dear Heloise: I kept an old dish-drainer mat to use when I paint. When I clean out my rollers and brushes, I lay them on the mat without fear BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker of staining my nice new one.

Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or email it to Heloise@Heloise.com. I can’t answer your letter personally but will use the best hints received in my column.

CRP-Grasslands Program enrollment period now open AMES — Farmers in Iowa who agree to use sustainable grazing practices may be eligible to participate in the updated Conservation Reserve Program (CRP)-Grasslands Program.

The CRP-Grasslands program was created by Congress through the 2014 Farm Bill. The program is administered by the USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) and emphasizes support for grazing lands.

Basic provisions for the CRP-Grasslands program along with changes to the general CRP program were announced in a July 2015 edition of the Federal Register.

“The Iowa Cattlemen’s Association (ICA) is very excited about this new federal program opportunity for Iowa cattlemen and women,” said Matt Deppe,

ICA director. “ICA has been lobbying Congress and the federal FSA office for sometime to create a working lands program that rewards cattle producers for maintaining pasture acres. We strongly feel that cattle on grass is one of the best conservation tools for soil and water quality as well as wildlife biodiversity.”

To participate, farmers and ranchers must agree to employ long-term conservation practices on their grasslands, such as rotational grazing or improving pasture cover to benefit pollinators or other wildlife.

Up to 50 percent of the cost for employing conservation “covers” can be paid by federal cost share.

Participants voluntarily limit future use of the land while retaining the right

to conduct common grazing practices, produce hay, mow, or harvest for seed production (subject to certain restrictions during the nesting season of bird species that are in significant decline or those that are protected under federal or state law), conduct fire rehabilitation and construct firebreaks and fences.

In return for following an approved CRP conservation plan, FSA will provide an annual rental payment to participants at 75 percent of the grazing value of the land. CRP-Grasslands contracts will be 15 years in length.

Interested participants may visit www.iacattlemen. org for more info. The first application period is open until Nov. 20, and farmers may file applications with FSA at any time.

CEDAR RAPIDS — This harvest, we remind customers to pay extra attention to utility equipment while using farm machinery.

Every fall, tractors, combines, augers, tillage equipment, tiling machines and other related equipment are at high risk to hit power poles, guy wires connected to poles, overhead or underground electric lines and natural gas pipelines or equipment.

“We know everyone is busy getting the crops harvested or the fields tilled. We want to remind people to stay safe by taking an extra second to look for utility lines,” said Kent Sodawasser, lead safety specialist. “To be safe, machinery needs to stay at

• If you are in a vehicle or piece of machinery that contacts a power line, stay in the vehicle until emergency personnel tells you it is safe to get out. If there is an immediate danger of a fire, jump out and land with both feet together.

Never touch the equipment and the ground at the same time. Shuffle away from the equipment without raising your feet.

• Call 811 at least three business days before you do any digging, deep chisel plowing or tiling. Utility companies will locate their buried lines where you plan to work, for free. Respect the marks and then dig carefully.

ISU singers to perform at Warren Cultural Center From barbershop to the Beach Boys, any song that calls for tight vocal harmony is the forte of Shy of a Dozen, the touring a cappella men’s ensemble from Iowa State University, that will perform 7 p.m. Oct. 24, at the Warren Cultural Center in Greenfield.

Affiliated with the Department of Music at ISU, the group’s repertoire consists of a wide variety of popular music, some written for a cappella groups and some that are its own arrangements of songs with traditional instrumentation. The select members of “ShyDo” are students at ISU. About half are music majors, and the other half represent a wide variety of programs of study.

Opening the evening of song will be the Nodaway Valley High School men’s chorus, directed by Jordan Leckband.

The show is presented as part of the Warren Cultural Center’s Premier Performance Series, which brings

top-flight national and Iowa-based talent to the stage of the restored Warren Opera House. Tickets are on sale now at Ed and Eva’s store, 154 Public Square, Greenfield, by calling 641743-2566 or visiting www. warrenculturalcenter.com.

Special student ticket pricing is available. Call 641-3437337 for more information.

Shy of a Dozen was founded in 2000 by Dr. James Rodde, director of choral activities at ISU. Active since 2007 in its current form, “ShyDo” is composed of 11 male students, the only a cappella ensemble affiliated with the school’s music department. The group has given many performances at campus events and across the state. Samples of their music are available on YouTube.

The 2014-15 Premier Performance Series is sponsored by First National Bank, Adair County Abstract Co., Adair County Health System, Adair County Farm Bureau Al-

liance, Farm Bureau Financial Services - Connie Hohertz agent, Greenfield Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, Greenfield Fareway, Havens Accounting, Hight Law Office, Iowa Arts Council, Jensen Law Office, Olesen Law Office, Pro Team Insurance, Southwestern Community College, Stalker Chevrolet and Union State Bank.

Times the Lions have been the last remaining winless team in the NFL, most by any team.

NATIONAL DIGEST

Seahawks survive SEATTLE — The Seattle Seahawks came ever so close to staring 1-3 in the face Monday night.

But with 1:45 left and Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson lunging for the end zone, safety Kam Chancellor popped the ball out and K.J. Wright batted the ball out of the back of the end zone, resulting in a touchback that allowed the Seahawks to preserve a 13-10 victory.

After the game, it was revealed Wright batting the ball was illegal. The Lions should have gotten the ball back.

That did not happen and Chancellor’s play kept the Seahawks from falling into a huge early-season hole. After holding out and missing the first two games of the season, he finished with seven tackles (six solo) and delivered a jarring hit to Johnson over the middle on a different play.

Rehab NEW YORK — New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia is checking himself into an alcohol rehabilitation center and will miss the postseason, he announced Monday.

“Today I am checking myself into an alcohol rehabilitation center to receive the professional care and assistance needed to treat my disease,” Sabathia said in a statement. “I love baseball and I love my teammates like brothers, and I am also fully aware that I am leaving at a time when we should all be coming together for one last push toward the World Series.

“It hurts me deeply to do this now, but I owe it to myself and to my family to get myself right. I want to take control of my disease, and I want to be a better man, father and player.”

The Yankees host the Houston Astros in the AL wild-card game Tuesday night.

Philbin fired DAVIE, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins fired coach Joe Philbin on Monday after a 1-3 start to the season.

Philbin, 24-28 in Miami since taking over in 2012, became the first head coach in the NFL to lose his job this season.

Dolphins tight ends coach Dan Campbell will serve as Miami’s interim head coach for the remainder of the season.

Suspension SAN JOSE, Calif.

— Sharks forward Raffi Torres has received the longest suspension in NHL history for a hit on another player when the league banned him Monday for the first 41 games of the season for an illegal check to the head of Anaheim’s Jakob Silfverberg.

Torres’ latest infraction resulted from a hit in a preseason game Saturday.

He was ejected with 7:15 left in the first period. Silfverberg did not return to the game either.

“They medaled top 20, so all of our varsity girls medaled,” Schlapia said.

“Even though we didn’t meet our goal of staying within one minute of Jessica, that pack got us through there.

Even Danielle (Castillo) as our eighth runner was in the top 20. That was a good team effort. They worked well off each other. When you figure we’re scoring 49 points and winning it by 70 points, that was a very dominant team effort by the girls.”

GREENFIELD — The Creston girls cross country team won its second meet out of the last three here Monday, while Nodaway Valley’s boys team continued its string of dominant performances at the Nodaway Valley Invitational.

The Panthers girls rolled to the team title, defeating runner-up Southwest Valley by 70 points, while Nodaway Valley’s boys team was 69 points better than runner-up Pleasantville.

Creston’s boys team finished third with 106 points in a team race that saw second through fifth place separated by just nine points. Interstate 35 was fourth with 108 points and West Central Valley fifth with 109 points.

In the individual races, Wolverine senior Destiny Scar dominated the field in the girls 5K, while junior Shane Breheny pulled away from Creston’s Cooper McDermott over the final half of the race to win the individual titles at their home meet.

The Panther girls secured their second team title of the season in dominant fashion, led by senior Jessica Beatty, who finished fourth overall in 22:34.09.

“We challenged them there’s a chance to take first at this meet,” Creston head coach Pat Schlapia said. “We needed all of them to buy into it. Jessica Beatty set the pace for us. She was battling for that second, third and fourth

Monday’s meet marked the fourth meeting between Class 1A third-ranked Breheny and Class 3A ninth-ranked McDermott.

Breheny moved his season record in the series to 3-1 over McDermott, running 17:35.15 for a 12-second win over the Panther senior.

Breheny opened up an early 5-second gap over McDermott, and was able to maintain that cushion until pulling away over the second half of the course.

Breakthrough win for Raiderettes, coach Braby Daughter tops father in Mount Ayr win at Murray

By LARRY PETERSON

CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

MURRAY — There’s just a small price to pay for Tori Braby finally getting her first coaching victory over dad.

Thanksgiving dinner.

“She can bring the turkey this Thanksgiving,” said Murray coach Jerry Shields, father of both Braby and his Lady Mustang assistant, Kristin Shields.

Last year, Mount Ayr’s season ended in a five-set regional loss on the same court in the Jerry Brown Gymnasium where Braby graduated in 2002 as a former player for her father.

“Our girls asked me how many times I’ve ever won against dad,” Braby said Monday night. “I said none.

They said they were going to fix it. They fixed it pretty big time!”

Mount Ayr (18-7) swept the 12-5 Lady Mustangs in convincing fashion, 25-18, 25-14, 25-10, behind the one-two attacking punch of juniors Kelcie Shields (19 kills) and Tessa Shields (14 kills).

For good measure, senior Kirsten Dolecheck had more kills (seven) than the Murray leader for the night, Jade Lecy (six).

“Too many weapons,” coach Shields said. “We started out doing exactly what I wanted us to do — get a hand on the ball when Kelcie was hitting it. We did a good job of that in the first 10-12 points and stayed right with them. Then we went through a lot of lulls where we weren’t attacking the ball back, playing too much

defense and just bumping and passing the ball back.

Against a good team like that, they’re going to pound it back at you every chance they get. We have to attack the other way more consistently.”

Kelcie Shields, Mount Ayr’s 6-foot-2 middle hitter, had six total blocks.

Solid defense

Distributing the ball on offense were Alyssa John-

son and Macy Larsen with 24 and 14 assists, respectively. Libero Blair Glendenning triggered an effective passing attack, finishing with a match-high 18 digs.

“Blair is all over the place,” Braby said. “She gets her hands on balls other girls wouldn’t even dream about getting. She can really read the ball and she’s quick. She’s pushing herself in the gym all the time. She

doesn’t get worn down.”

Varied attack

It wasn’t all thumping bombs off the hands of the front row leaders for the Raiderettes. Many points came on well-placed tips and dumps.

“I try to teach them that a kill is any time the ball hits the floor, it doesn’t always have to be something hard,” Braby said. “I knew Murray was going to come out and

double block Kelcie. Tessa Shields stepped up tonight and made a lot of big plays.

We do a good job of seeing the floor.”

Coach Shields said his team’s defense was caught on its heels against the variety of Mount Ayr’s attack.

“Most of the time when I’ve scouted them before, Tessa went across the court with her t i p s , ” Shields said. “Ton i g h t she went down the line a lot and we T. Shields weren’t ready for that.”

The first two sets ended with long service runs by Glendenning and Alyssa Johnson. Johnson ended with five service aces and Larsen had four. Glendenning served 13-13.

“We work on serve receive a lot, but our serve receive went south as we ended up at 45 percent on the evening,” Shields said.

Grand View beats Spartans 3-1 BREAKTHROUGH: SWCC hosts league-leader Kirkwood Wednesday

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

DES MOINES — Grand View JV defeated the Southwestern volleyball team Friday night, 26-24, 1925, 25-14, 25-15.

“We had too many receiving errors,” Spartan coach Ting Liu said.

Carmen Subbert had 18 kills and 16 digs for Southwestern, now 9-10 overall.

Xuntong Zhang added 10 kills and 13 digs. Brooke Decker provided two blocks from the middle with eight kills. Marie Palmer had four kills.

Freshman setter Hanna Luther finished with 35 assists and seven digs. Krechele Brown had a team-high 23 digs and two ace serves.

The Spartans, 1-3 in the

conference, jump back into league play Wednesday by hosting first-place Kirkwood (20-8 overall, 5-0 ICCAC).

Start time is 6:30 p.m.

Erin Wenzel of the Eagles ranks second in the nation in kills and Halle Lueck ranks second in assists.

Kirkwood has only three sophomores on its 15-player roster — Natalie Demmel is the other — yet the Eagles are ranked 13th in the nation in the NJCAA Division II poll with an undefeated record in the conference after cruising by Southeastern, 25-6, 25-13, 25-11, in a 60-minute contest on Wednesday.

“When you’re 13th in the nation with this many young kids and inexperienced players, if we can stay in the top20 we’re probably doing all

right,” said coach Jill Williams. “We’ve taken a couple of lumps and had a few losses, but that’s experience, that’s learning.”

The Eagles lead the ICCAC conference with their 5-0 mark, but they still have matches against fourth-ranked DMACC, 14th-ranked Northeast and Southwestern on the league schedule. DMACC and Northeast have only one loss in conference events, so Kirkwood still has some big hurdles to win the title.

Grand View 3, SWCC 1 Kills — Carmen Subbert 18, Xuntong Zhang 10, Brooke Decker 8, Marie Palmer 4, Madison Walston 1, Allie Shields 1.

Digs — Krechele Brown 23, Subbert 16, Zhang 13, Luther 7, Brittany Langendoerfer 6.

Blocks (solo-assists) — Decker 0-2, Palmer 1-1, Shields 0-1.

Serving aces — Brown 2, Palmer 1.

Spartan men sixth at Dan Huston Invite

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

WAVERLY — Four of the five Southwestern Community College men who raced here Saturday ran personal bests, as the Spartans finished sixth in the seven-team field at the Dan Huston Invitational.

Head coach Nick Ekel said racing conditions were perfect on Saturday. Southwestern scored 172 points, finishing just 32 points behind Region XI rival Indian Hills.

Freshman Nate Hoyt of Shenandoah led the way with a 57th-place finish in a personal best time of 28:26.

Freshman Inia Sili took more than 3 minutes off his Sili previous

personal best, running 28:41 over the 8K course for 63rd.

Joe Blake, freshman from Shenandoah, ran 28:47 for 66th, while Gabe Esser and Chasen Selsor rounded out the team scoring for the Spartans.

“We only raced five men and we held out two of our scoring five runners,” Ekel said. “We have the potential to accomplish some great results if we can get healthy and stay consistent in training.”

Ekel said his team’s performance just eight days after last competing shows what his team is capable of, six weeks out from the national championships.

“Joe Blake and Chasen Selsor deserve a ton of praise, as they have been sidelined with some knee issues the past two weeks,” Ekel said. “The amount of cross training they have done in the Southern Prairie YMCA pool carried them

Area volleyball Lenox 3, Central Decatur 1 LENOX — Lenox defeated Central Decatur Thursday, 25-15, 20-25, 25-13, 2518.

“Shantelle Brown had a big night, serving and digging stuff up for us,” said Lenox coach Sara Dukes. “Mika Weaver, Jacy Stoaks and Brooke Miller had big nights for us well.”

Brown had 20 digs and served 25-26 with two aces for the Tigers (7-11). Weaver

had a team-high 14 kills and three solo blocks, and Stoaks had 12 kills. Stoaks also had five solo blocks. Weaver served 11-13 with two aces.

“We have the number one seed in the (Pride of Iowa) west wrapped up, but the girls want to go 5-0 on that side and get a win (Tuesday),” Braby said. “They have some high goals.”

In conference tournament play, Mount Ayr will serve as an opening night host on Monday against probably Wayne and Southwest Valley, Braby said, with the semifinal and finals on Tuesday at Truro.

“Last year we made the finals and lost by just a few points in the fifth set to Nodaway Valley,” Braby said. “These girls want to get back there and get another chance.”

This happened to be Shane’s day.”

Nodaway Valley finished with all five scoring members of its varsity team in the top 10 of the meet, with all seven varsity runners finishing in the top 14.

That fueled the Wolverines to a team score of 31 points, finishing 69 points ahead of runner-up Pleasantville.

Creston, meanwhile, found itself in a tight race for second place. The Panthers finished six points back of Pleasantville and only three points ahead of fifth-place West Central Valley.

Junior Ben Irr continued to run strong, finishing sixth in a time of 18:24.48.

“He was within 37 seconds of Cooper,” Schlapia said.

“That was nice. These last couple of weeks, you can see he’s running even more confident. He’s on a mission.”

Isaac Wignall in 28th, Dylan Linch in 40th and Matthew Rouh in 41st rounded out the team scoring for the Panthers.

Lenox senior Jacob Bolinger finished 12th overall

in 19:06.23.
