Creston Community High School Band Instructor Mike Peters said the success of earning 29 one ratings took planning, designing and the dedication of more than 100 students each year to achieve.

“We underestimate how m u c h kids can do when they’re motivated,” said Peters.

Reece’s last known address was a trailer park just outside of Shenandoah, behind the old Highway 59 motel. It is believed Reece got knowledge that a warrant had been issued for his arrest and he cut off his tracking ankle bracelet at 11:56 a.m. Thursday, just north of Shenandoah.

Witnesses report Reece may have gotten in a red crew cab pickup at the campsite just before his bracelet was cut off.

Anyone with knowledge of Reece’s whereabouts can contact the Taylor County Sheriff’s Office at 712-523-2153 or call a local law enforcement agency.

DEA prepares for prescription drug Take Back Day DES MOINES – From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28, the Des Moines Resident Office of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and other participating law enforcement agencies will give the public its 14th opportunity in seven years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. The DEA cannot accept liquids, needles or sharps, only pills or patches. The service is free and anonymous with no questions asked.

Last April, Americans turned in 450 tons (900,000 pounds) of prescription drugs at almost 5,500 sites operated by the DEA and more than 4,200 of its state and local law enforcement partners. Overall, in its 13 previous Take Back events, DEA and its partners have collected more than 8.1 million pounds – more than 4,050 tons – of pills.

Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these

drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 91 Americans die each day from an opioid overdose.

Some painkiller abusers move on to heroin, and four out of five new heroin users started with painkillers.

This initiative addresses vital public safety and public health issues that surround medications languishing in home cabinets, becoming highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse.

In addition, flushing medications down the toilet or throwing them in the trash create separate potential safety and health hazards.

For more information or to locate a collection site near you, go the DEA Prescription Drug Take Back Day website at takebackday.dea.gov/#collection-locator where you can search by zip code, city or state.

The closest collection location in this area is Ringgold County Sheriff’s Office, 801 W. South St., in Mount Ayr.

US economy grew at 3 percent rate in July-September quarter WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy, bolstered by business investment, grew at a solid annual rate of 3 percent in the third quarter. It marks the first time in three years that growth has hit at least 3 percent for two consecutive quarters.

The Commerce Department reported Friday that the July-September advance in the gross domestic product — the country’s total output of goods and services — followed a 3.1 percent rise in the second quarter. It was the strongest two-quarter showing since back-to-back gains of 4.6 percent and 5.2 percent in the second and third quarters of 2014.

The economy accelerated this summer despite the impact of hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which many private economists believe shaved at least one-half percentage point off growth.

The third quarter performance was certain to be cited by President Donald Trump, who pledged during last year’s campaign that his economic program would boost growth from the anemic 2.2 percent averages seen since the country emerged from the Great Re-

“Friends You Can Depend On” Bruce Pearson, Funeral Director

cession in mid-2009. Trump during the campaign said his policies of tax cuts, deregulation and tougher enforcement of trade laws would achieve growth of 4 percent or better, though his first budget projects growth hitting 3 percent in the coming years.

Private economists believe even 3 percent annual gains will be hard to achieve for an economy facing a slowdown in productivity and an aging workforce.

Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, said the stronger-than-expected report showed that the hurricanes ended up having “little lasting impact on the economy.”

All-State Music Festival will hold its 71st event 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 18, in Hilton Coliseum on the Iowa State University campus in Ames.

Tickets to the event are $22 each, plus fees, and all seats are reserved. Tickets are available at the ISU Athletics Ticket Office or through Ticketmaster.

Creston Community High School junior Isaac Finehout was selected for AllState on clarinet and sophomore Brittany Linch was selected as first alternate on trumpet.

“Mr. Peters challenged me to do it, and I’m happy

with the spot I earned,” said Finehout.

Linch said she was disapointed to have gotten an alternate spot, but was still happy to have made it that far for All-State.

As first alternate, if any trumpet player is unable to attend the All-State Music Festival, Linch will be brought in to participate.

“If you can handle AllState auditions, you can handle any job interview you’ll ever have,” said Peters.

Iowa Public Television will record the concert for re-broadcast. The festival will be aired 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 23. The program is sponsored by the Iowa High School Music Association and the Iowa Music Educators Association.

JFK Files: Thousands released but Trump holds back others WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has blocked the release of hundreds of records on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, bending to CIA and FBI appeals, while the National Archives came out Thursday night with a hefty cache of others.

“I have no choice,” Trump said in a memo, citing “potentially irreversible harm” to national security if he were to allow all records to come out now. He placed those files under a six-month review while letting 2,800 others come out, racing a deadline to honor a law mandating their release.

The documents approved for release and made public late Thursday capture the frantic days after the Nov. 22, 1963, assassination, during which federal agents madly chased after tips, however thin, juggled rumors and sifted through

leads worldwide.

They include cables, notes and reports stamped “Secret” that reveal the suspicions of the era — around Cubans and Communists.

They cast a wide net over varied activities of the Kennedy administration, such as its covert efforts to upend Fidel Castro’s government in Cuba.

For historians, it’s a chance to answer lingering questions, put some unfounded conspiracy theories to rest, perhaps give life to other theories.

Despite having months to prepare for disclosures that have been set on the calendar for 25 years, Trump’s decision came down to a last-minute debate with intelligence agencies — a tus-

sle the president then prolonged by calling for still more review.

The delay sparked a round of finger-pointing among agencies and complaints that Trump should have released all records.

Roger Stone, a sometime Trump adviser who wrote a book about his theories on the assassination, urged Trump to review personally any material that government agencies still want to withhold. Trump should at least “spot check” any extensive redactions to make sure agencies are not “dabbling in acts of criminal insubordination,” Stone said in a statement.

As for the unreleased documents, Trump will impress upon federal agen-

cies that “only in the rarest cases” should JFK files stay secret after the six-month review, officials said.

In the meantime, experts will be poring through a mountain of minutiae and countless loose threads in search of significant revelations.

In the chaotic aftermath of the assassination, followed two days later by the murder of the shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald while in police custody, FBI Director J, Edgar Hoover vented his frustration in a formerly secret report found in the files. It opened: “There is nothing further on the Oswald case except that he is dead.”

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Heloise: It seems like I always try to insert my USB CABLES the wrong way, sometimes several times in a row. I put a small drop of nail polish on the top side of my cable, using different colors for different ones. For example, one charger cable inserts into my wall outlet one way and my desk computer a different way, but I have pink and purple marks showing which ones are a match, and that makes it simpler to plug things in. – R.W. in Canada SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise. com LIFE WITHOUT A WRINKLE Dear Heloise: I have a question: How do I keep the tops of my flat sheets flat?

All of the top sheets develop nonremovable creases in the top “cuff” area. Pulling these flat before drying, ironing them and very carefully folding them doesn’t solve the problem, and it really annoys me! – Sue O’H., via email Sue, it’s usually recommended to use the permanent-press cycle on the washer and dryer, if available. If not, for the washer, use warm water and a slower or short-

er spin cycle. For the dryer, use a high temperature and about 10 minutes of air drying. Remove items from the dryer as soon as it stops, and hang or fold them. You probably will have to iron the “cuff” using a spray starch and a steam iron. – Heloise AMERICANO COFFEE Dear Heloise: I’m a 71-year-old woman, and I’ve been traveling to Europe for years. I’ve heard Americans complaining about how “lazy” or “shiftless” the locals are while they are sitting on a stool in a coffee bar in town. Recently, in Italy, I was with people who didn’t understand the European coffee bar or the language.

If you want a cup of coffee with cream (at least in Italy), order an “Americano.” A cappuccino is drunk only for breakfast/brunch. And here’s a tip: Always try to learn a few words in the language of the country you’ll be visiting.

– June L., Ventura, Calif.

RETURN TO SENDER Dear Heloise: When you move into a new house, office, etc., sometimes mail arrives for the former occupants. Instead of bringing the mail into the house to write “Return,” I leave a pen in the mailbox. Problem solved. – Marc T., Woodstock, Va.

LOST LUGGAGE Dear Heloise: Just a few thoughts on preventing lost luggage: If you are traveling, remove all the old travel tags from your luggage. I always place my identification on the inside as well as the outside. Don’t use your home address, but instead your office one – or, better yet, use a business card as ID. Avoid traveling with expensive luggage, because it attracts thieves. Be sure to claim your luggage as soon as possible, and never leave your bags unattended. – Tyler H., New Bedford, Mass.

UNSPOKEN RULES Dear Heloise: There are some unspoken house rules that every guest should adhere to when visiting friends or family: * Volunteer to help with dinner and cleanup. In fact, INSIST that you contribute in some significant way.

Take your host and hostess out one night for dinner. * For heaven’s sake, make your bed every morning.

Don’t leave your room a mess. * It wouldn’t hurt you to bring the hostess a useful gift, either. A bottle of wine, a nice dessert or anything the hostess can use or enjoy.

Creston News Advertiser | Friday, October 27, 2017

CLUB NEWS Elzevir Reading Circle

Elzevir Reading Circle met 1:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 13, at the home of Terry Ammon. President Linda Topliff called the meeting to order with members answering roll call with their Halloween plans.

The secretary read the minutes of the last meeting. They were approved as read. The treasurer reported yearly dues had been sent to GFWC. Federated news included the upcoming GFWC Southwest District Convention to be held Oct. 20 in Adel. Three members plan to attend.

GFWC Newsletter News and Notes website was shared with members.

Alice Bowers moved to change the by-laws as they were presented at the last meeting.

Mary Burg seconded and motion carried. Ammon made the motion to support all the same volunteer activities as during the past year. Carol Brentnall seconded and motion carried.

Motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Topliff and seconded by Burg. Mary Stewart’s Club Collect was recited.

Brentnall reviewed the book “Dust Bowl Girls” by Lydia Reeder. In the early 1930s, during the worst drought and financial depression in American history, Sam Babb traveled from farm to farm near the tiny Oklahoma college where he coached and recruited talented, hardworking young women and offered them a free college education in exchange for playing on his basketball team, the Cardinals. Despite their fears of leaving home and the sacrifices their families would face, the women joined the team. These remarkable athletes found a passion for the game and a heartfelt loyalty to one another and their coach, and they began to win.

The women’s division endorsed sports for health purposes and outlined a plan for gentle intramural “play days” that barred all spectators, officially discouraging intercollegiate play to save the feminine souls of American girls. First Lady Lou Henry Hoover used her power to attack competitive athletics for women, especially basketball. The AAU responded to the women’s division by ignoring it and planning to increase the competitive opportunities for women.

Babb’s team of 19 girls barnstormed through Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, sacrificing their holiday for the good of the school. Winning every game earned them a spot in the upcoming 1932 AAU national tournament in Shreveport. In a close final game with last year’s champions, the Cyclones, the OPC Cardinals won it all and became the new champions.

Team captain Doll Harris accepted the three-foot trophy.

The Cardinals won 89 consecutive games, including two consecutive Women’s National AAU Basketball Championships. In June 1933, they beat the world-champion Canadians three in a row. They represented North America in the Women’s World Games held in 1934 in London, England.

Their victories were achieved under the dire circumstances of the Dust Bowl and Great Depressions between March 1931 and March 1934.

The hostess served dessert.

The next meeting will be 1:30 p.m. Nov. 10 at the home of Angela Pullen with Ammon giving the program.

Union County Genealogy Society

Vice President Tessa Hull presided over the Oct. 23 meeting of Union County Genealogy Society. Eleven members and one guest were in attendance. The society currently has 26 paid members. The society meets at 6 p.m. on the fourth Monday of every month, except July and December, at Gibson Memorial Library. The society welcomes new members.

Tessa presented the five-minute tidbit on free genealogy websites. She provided members with a printout of sites and other free sources of information that are available to genealogists.

Member Wally Miller, with the assistance of guest Linda James, presented an interesting and informative program on materials available to genealogists and the general public at the Union County Historical Museum.

The Union County Historical Society is in the process of inventorying and cataloging all of the materials owned by the society. Some of the items available for viewing include city directories, high school yearbooks, phone books, school record books, centennial books and the Colby and Ide history books. Miller also displayed the work he has undertaken to identify locations and employees of past local businesses.

The meeting adjourned at 7:45 p.m. The final meeting for 2017 will be Nov. 27. Election of officers will be held.

Members are to bring finger foods and snacks to share.

Book Club

The Book Club met Oct. 9 at the home of President Carolyn Derrick. The minutes of the September meeting were read and approved as amended. The treasurer’s report was given and approved.

It was noted the Book Club donated $49.40 to the Gibson Memorial Library for books.

Roll Call was answered by nine members noting books read recently: “The Genius of Dogs” by Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods, “Victoria, A Life” by A.N.Wilson, “Extraordinary Grace” by Gary Chapman and Chris Fabry, “A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23” by W. Phillip Keller, “Finding Fortune”

by Delia Ray, “I Can Jump Puddles” by Alan Marshall, “When Christmas Comes Again, WWII Diary of Simone Spencer,” “Jamestown”

by Angela Elwell Hunt, “Nerve” by Dick Francis, “Last One Home” by Debbie Macomber, “The Operator”

by Robert O’Neill, “Y is for Yesterday” by Sue Grafton, “Right Behind You” by Lisa Gardner and “The Collectibles” and “The Concealers,” both by James Kauffman.

Pat Pokorny gave the review of the book “Divine Rebel” by Selma R Williams.

The following is her summary: “Born in England in 1591, Anne Hutchinson immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1634. In New England, the outspoken Hutchinson, who had been deeply influenced by her father, a preacher, quickly ran afoul of the colony’s basic distrust of women. When she realized women were to be excluded from colonial affairs, she began holding meetings for women to discuss religious and practical matters.

Brought to trial for her dissenting views, she found a forum to address the entire colony, England and posterity.

Convicted, she was banished from the bay colony and finally, ironically, murdered by native Americans. She was a champion of individual liberty and a significant figure in American History.”

Interesting discussion followed the review as members talked about the conditions during the early settling of our country and why so many people were so willing to fight and die for liberty and freedom. This was of particular interest in light of many things that are happening today regarding the importance of our constitution and laws.

After the review and discussion, members enjoyed delicious refreshments served

by Derrick and Ellen Sue Findley.

The next meeting will be 1:30 p.m. Nov. 13 (note change). The hostess will be Retta Ripperger and the program will be presented by Dorothy McNaught.

She verbalized the sheer thrill to the human senses, and then showed her well-framed photos of sunsets, mountain vistas with fog in the depths, small plants and bees on lavender.

Card of Thanks

SWCC Week: Kasydi Klommhaus of Mount Ayr participates in a SWCC Week/Alcohol Awareness Week 2017 “Tricky Treating” activity while SWCC Dean of Students Beth Kulow holds a card over her head Thursday night in the SWCC library. Tricky Treating was a campus-wide scavenger hunt with the first-place team earning $200. SWCC students followed text messages and clues from station to station, learning about alcohol awareness along the way.

FILES: CONT. FROM | 2A

But, reflecting on Oswald less than an hour after he died, Hoover already sensed theories would form about a conspiracy broader than the lone assassin.

“The thing I am concerned about, and so is (deputy attorney general) Mr. Katzenbach, is having something issued so we can convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin,” he said.

He also reported: “Last night we received a call from our Dallas office from a man talking in a calm voice and saying he was a member of a committee organized to kill Oswald.”

Hoover said he relayed that warning to Dallas police and was assured Oswald would be sufficiently protected. Oswald was shot dead the next day by Jack Ruby.

A document from 1975 contains a partial deposition

by Richard Helms, a deputy CIA director under Kennedy who later became CIA chief, to the Rockefeller Commission, which was studying unauthorized CIA activities in domestic affairs. Commission lawyers appeared to be probing for information on what foreign leaders might have been the subject of assassination attempts by or on behalf of the CIA. A lawyer asks Helms: “Is there any information involved with the assassination of President Kennedy which in any way shows that Lee Harvey Oswald was in some way a CIA agent or agent” — here the document ends, short of his answer.

Among the files is a more than 400-page document that appeared to describe people being monitored as potential threats to Kennedy and his successor, Lyndon B. Johnson.

Officials described one such person this way: “Subject participated in pickets against JFK in 1961. Allegedly trained in guerrilla tac-

&B B HOME IMPROVEMENT LLC Brad Riley Jake Riley 641-344-2064 641-202-2442

tics & sabotage. Considered very dangerous by those who know him. Has visited USA & Cuba. Considered armed and dangerous.”

Some suspicions missed the mark badly.

One document describes a person who sent a letter to Johnson in December 1963 stating “you’re doomed.”

The document says: “Interviewed 1/23/64; friendly. Said letter was a joke. Not dangerous. Attending 5th grade.”

The collection also discloses a Sept. 14, 1962, meeting of a group of Kennedy’s senior aides, including brother Robert, the attorney general, as they discussed a range of options against Castro’s communist government.

The meeting was told the CIA would look into the possibility of sabotaging airplane parts that were to be shipped to Cuba from Canada. Mc-

George Bundy, JFK’s national security adviser, cautioned that sensitive ideas like sabotage would have to be considered in more detail on a caseby-case basis.

Much of Thursday passed with nothing from the White House or National Archives except silence, leaving unclear how the government would comply with a law requiring the records to come out by the end of the day — unless Trump was persuaded by intelligence agencies to hold some back.

White House officials said the FBI and CIA made the most requests within the government to withhold some information.

Trump ordered agencies that have proposed withholding material related to the assassination to report to the archivist by next March 12 on which specific information

That standard includes details that could cause “harm to the military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement or conduct of foreign relations,” Trump wrote in his order. The archivist will have two weeks to tell Trump whether those recommendations validate keeping the withheld information a secret after April 26.

The full record will still be kept from the public for at least six months — and longer if agencies make a persuasive enough case for continued secrecy.

The collection includes more than 3,100 records — comprising hundreds of thousands of pages — that have never been seen by the public. About 30,000 documents were released previously — with redactions.

Eagles downed in regional semis ■ East

Union falls in final three sets of loss to SEW

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports editor kacarter@crestonnews.com

AFTON — “Girls at East Union love the game of volleyball.”

So when East Union’s night came to an end in a loss Thursday in the Class 1A Region 8 semifinals, the Eagles of course wore the emotion on their faces.

The Eagles (19-15) won set one over Pride of Iowa Conference foe Southeast Warren (25-7) before falling

25-13, 25-15, 25-22 to bring their season to an end.

The Warhawks’ victory earned them a regional final shot against Holy Trinity Catholic (36-5), who defeated New London.

East Union coach Gail Thatcher has been with the program over 20 years, and season-ending losses like this don’t get easier, as evidenced by her first quote.

The Eagles unleashed a cavalcade of energy from the beginning of the match, as the two teams went backand-forth on the matches first 25-plus points.

What was a 12-11 deficit in set one for the Eagles quickly changed in East Union’s favor, as Olivia

Cheers cleared a wall with soft touch for a point, and the Eagles forced Southeast Warren into several mistakes. Olivia Eckels’ serve carried the squad forward to a 17-13 lead that came about on Megan Mitchell’s tap to an open spot between Warhawk players.

Southeast Warren did pull the set back to 18-17, but several hustle plays by Lauren Mitchell reinvigorated the Eagles, as a lunging bump going away from the net managed to act as a perfect set for Eckels, who slammed down one of her nine kills on the exchange.

The Eagles then rattled EU | 4S

Panthers onward to Fort Dodge ■ Three

Creston runners to run in state meet, NV tries for third straight 1A boys title

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports editor kacarter@crestonnews.com

Saturday’s Class 3A State Cross Country Meet at Lakeside Municipal Golf Course in Fort Dodge will be the site for three Creston Panther runners.

Brielle and Braelyn Baker will be competition in the girls race at 12. Clayton Stafford and the boys will be at 12:30.

T h e Bri Baker t h r e e earned their ways to Fort Dodge by way of their performance at the Atlantic State Qualifying Meet.

There, Stafford’s 1 4 t h place finish was enough to garner the freshman a Brae Baker spot.

Braelyn Baker bested older sister Brielle in a meet for the first time by taking eight

while Brielle earned 11th, as Baker sustained a quad strain during the race.

“When she (Braelyn) first passed, she slowed down and looked back and I was like ‘no, you need to go ahead and finish.’ I didn’t know if I was going to finish or not,” Brielle Baker said.

But she did complete the race, and earned her second state appearance in two tries, and will try to improve upon last year’s finish of 62nd, which put her in the top half of the field of 140.

“That tells me the competitive nature she has,” Creston coach Pat Schlapia said. “That shows in all of her sports…she’s just competitive.”

Brielle took a few days of rest before coming back for more work this week.

The trio of Panther runners and teammate Levi Hitz have continued to run, working in bet w e e n Stafford about 4-6 miles a day this week. Stafford has been the pacemaker. He has pushed the Bakers, as they have pushed him to be better.

Week 9 Preview: Buckeyes seek revenge against Penn State

By STEVE MEGARGEE AP sports writer

This week’s college football action features a Big Ten showdown with major playoff implications as No. 6 Ohio State hosts No. 2 Penn State.

In other action, Notre Dame running back Josh Adams tries to maintain his recent momentum when the ninthranked Fighting Irish host No. 14 North Carolina State and its stingy run defense.

of been feeding off of Clayton, but they’ve pushed him too,” Schlapia said.

They’ve worked more than they will run in Fort Dodge, hoping to get out to quick, but steady starts in Fort Dodge, where Brielle aims to PR under 20:20 after her time of 20:40 last year.

Braelyn wants to be step for step with her sister, or keep her close within site. Braelyn also wants to best her sister’s time from last year.

Stafford wants to record his best time of the season on the flat course, and was advised by Brielle to take off from the start fast.

“I’m going to maybe try and start with that front pack, but maybe the second pack and stay as far up with them as I can,” Stafford said.

history and 25 in the last 18 years.

The state meet isn’t the event that just any athlete gets to.

The quality of the competition is something that Stafford and the younger Baker won’t be too familiar with.

Other factors weigh into uncertainty about the race.

For one, Brielle likes running on hills due to an advantage she has. The course in Fort Dodge is flat.

“The one thing that is different, is there are people in your face,” Brielle Baker said. “It’s way different than other meets because they’re on both sides of you.”

She tries to block them out.

While she blocks out outside factors, she’ll keep her attention on besting foes like Ellie Mendlik of Denison-Schleswig, Taylor McCreedy of Atlantic and Greichaly Kaster of Harlan.

The Panther girls will be

competing against the full team from Glenwood and Denison-Schleswig.

Nodaway Valley’s boys team of Brycen Wallace, Skyler Rawlings, Tyler Breheny, Josh Baudler, Austin Lundy and Joel Blazek and girls individuals Reagan Weinheimer and Sophia Broers will run in the Class 1A meet. The Wolverine boys are looking for their third consecutive state title.

Between the Wolverine boys and girls teams, 26 NV squads have qualified for state.

The 1A girls race begins at 2 p.m. and the 1A boys race starts at 2:30 p.m.

Wallace Parking at Kennedy Park will be $10 per vehicle, but those who get there before 9 a.m. can park for free.

Pheasant season opens Saturday Iowa DNR An estimated 50,000 blaze orange clad hunters will dot Iowa’s countryside at 8 a.m. on Oct. 28, for the opening of Iowa’s 2017 pheasant hunting season.

This annual event melds generations of Iowans who reconnect with their hunting heritage. While most hunters will generally only spend the first week or two in the field, those who venture out later will likely be rewarded with success.

“Hunters can expect to find similar bird numbers to last year, but the October rain has our harvest running behind schedule so opening weekend may not be as successful as years past,” said Todd Bogenschutz, upland wildlife research biologist for the Iowa Department of

Natural Resources. “However, a late harvest could lead to success later in the season.”

Results from the statewide August roadside survey indicate higher pheasant numbers were found in a line of counties stretching from northwest to southeast, but birds are available everywhere quality habitat is found.

Bogenschutz said he expects almost a repeat of 2016 pheasant season, where hunters harvested about 250,000 roosters.

Quail season Iowa’s quail population is at a 30 year high and landowners report seeing quail in areas that they had not seen them in years but the bulk of the quail population is in the southern three tiers

of counties.

“Quail hunting is different than pheasant hunting.

Quail are found in the shrubby patches near crop ground versus in fields of habitat,” he said. “Quail hunters will have less competition so if someone wants to give it a try, I would encourage them to knock on doors to get permission, don’t be shy.”

Iowa’s partridge season opened Oct. 14. Partridge hunting primarily takes place in the north-central counties.

gaining revenge against Penn State (7-0, 4-0), which beat the Buckeyes 24-21 last season. These two teams are tied with No. 16 Michigan State (6-1, 4-0) atop the Big Ten’s East Division.

The Buckeyes have won five straight games by an average margin of 41.2 points since falling 31-16 at home to No. 10 Oklahoma on Sept.

9. Ohio State has gained at least 500 yards in each of those five games but now faces a Penn State defense allowing just 9.6 points per game to lead all Football Bowl Subdivision programs in scoring defense.

Penn State’s Saquon Barkley has 211.1 all-purpose yards per game to lead all FBS players . Barkley ran for 99 yards on just 12 carries against Ohio State last season.

HEISMAN WATCH Josh Adams, RB, Notre Dame Adams hasn’t garnered as much attention as Barkley or Stanford’s Bryce Love but worked his way into the Heisman conversation

last week by rushing for 191 yards and three touchdowns in a 49-14 shellacking of No. 21 Southern California , which was ranked 11th at the time.

Adams has run for 967 yards and has averaged 138.1 yards rushing per game to rank sixth nationally and third among Power Five players, behind Love and Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor. Adams is gaining 9.2 yards per carry.

The ninth-ranked Fighting Irish host No. 14 North Carolina State this week. North Carolina State ranks sixth nationally in run defense .

NUMBERS TO KNOW 7 - The number of games Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor needed to reach the 1,000yard rushing mark this season. The only other FBS true freshmen ever to reach 1,000 yards rushing by their seventh game were Florida’s Emmitt Smith (1987), San Diego State’s Marshall Faulk (1991), Oklahoma’s Adrian Peterson (2004) and North Texas’ Jamario Thomas (2004).

14 - Tennessee’s offense hasn’t scored a single touchdown in its last 14 quarters .

313 - The number of passes North Carolina State’s Ryan Finley has thrown since his last interception. The NCAA record for consecutive passes without an interception is owned by former Wolfpack quarterback Russell Wilson, who threw 379 straight passes without getting picked off from 2008-09.

694 - The rushing yardage total for Arizona quarterback Khalil Tate during the Wildcats’ three-game winning streak. Tate has at least one run of 70-plus yards in each of those games. Arizona hosts No. 15 Washington State on Saturday.

2005 - The last year No. 25 Iowa State was ranked before this week. Iowa State’s Saturday home game with No. 4 TCU marks the first time two Top 25 teams have faced each other at Jack Trice Stadium since the 19thranked Cyclones defeated No. 20 Nebraska 36-14 in 2002.

UNDER THE RADAR Florida Atlantic at Western Kentucky Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin’s Power Five background and social-media presence assure he’s never completely under the

radar, but the former Tennessee and Southern California coach has been lighting up the scoreboard in the relative anonymity of Conference USA this season.

The Owls (4-3, 3-0 C-USA) are undefeated in league play and have totaled 127 points over their last two games, including a 69-31 blowout of North Texas a week ago.

That sets up an intriguing matchup Saturday as Florida Atlantic visits defending Conference USA champion Western Kentucky (5-2, 3-1), which trounced the Owls 52-3 last season.

HOT SEAT WATCH Bret Bielema, Arkansas Bielema has gone just 2731 in five years at Arkansas , a dramatic drop for a coach who had posted a 68-24 record and earned three Rose Bowl berths in seven seasons at Wisconsin. Arkansas has gone just 10-26 in Southeastern Conference play under Bielema.

To make matters worse, Arkansas has lost its top overall player, with center Frank Ragnow out the remainder of the season with a high ankle sprain.

Opening day safety Hunters heading to the field for the opening weekend of pheasant season are encouraged to review safe hunting practices before they head out.

Megan Wisecup, hunter education administrator with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, said hunters should get reacquainted with the techniques used to hunt pheasants – be sure to walk in a straight line and know where members of the hunting party are at all times, especially in low visibility areas like terraces, tall switch grass and standing corn.

“Go through the zones of fire with each member of the hunting party, talk about avoiding target fixation and swinging on game,” Wisecup said.

“Wear plenty of blaze orange especially on the upper one third of your body. We are encouraging hunters to wear more blaze

orange than the minimum required.The goal is to be seen by other hunters.

“The top pheasant hunting incidents all are related to not being seen. The shooter swings on a rooster, the victim is out of sight of the shooter or the rooster flew between the shooter and the victim.”

Wisecup said safety also extends to the canine companions.

“Avoid low shots to prevent injuring your hunting dog,” she said.

“The hunting plan and safety practices are all part of a responsible hunt. The goal at the end of the day is for everyone to return home safely.”

Safe hunt tips: • Iowa law requires hunters to wear at least one of the following articles of visible, external apparel with at least 50 percent of its surface area soid blaze orange: hat, cap, vest, coat, jacket, sweatshirt, shirt or

• Hunters should stay in communication with each other and to stay in a straight line while pushing a field.

• Discuss the hunting plan that spells out how the hunt will take place, each person’s role in the hunt and where each person will be at all times.

• Know exactly where standers will be located, esecially when hunting standing corn or tall switch grass to avoid huaving the standers get shot by the pushers as they near the end of the field and the birds begin to flush.

• Make sure to unload

the gun when crossing a fence or other obstacle to avoid it accidently discharging.

• Properly identify the target and what is beyond it especially if hunting in field that still have standing corn.

• If hunting with a dog, never lay a loaded gun against a fence. Hunting dogs are usually excited to be in the field and could knock the gun over causing it to discharge.

• Share the hunt. Take someone new along to help keep Iowa’s great hunting tradition alive.

off four more points to end the first set on a 5-0 run for a 1-0 lead.

“The first set we served well,” Thatcher said. “We were putting the ball in different places. We were attacking well and moving it around and we weren’t letting them get any runs on us.”

Sets two and three brought far more trouble for the Eagles. Southeast Warren demonstrated why its attack led them to an undefeated mark against POI East competition this season, and a spot in the POI tournament title match.

Blaire Steenhoek had already established herself as the dominant presence for the Warhawks at the net, but Zaddie Beck and Lela Bales both contributed mightily for the Warhawks as the evening wore on.

Southeast Warren surged to a 12-9 lead, and when it stretched to 14-9, Thatcher called a timeout.

Whatever was discussed didn’t help as Southeast Warren then scored six consecutive points to distance themselves from East Union.

The third set featured more East Union trouble, as a 10-8 Warhawks lead jumped to 16-10 on Beck’s

ace.

After fighting through several Rakenzy Pryor winners, Southeast Warren came out on the right end of multiple long rallies for the set three win and a 2-1 lead.

“We weren’t communicating. Communication is key,” Thatcher said. “We always talk about that…We weren’t calling the ball so our hitters could release.”

The last set of the evening was the most tightly-contested.

Southeast Warren’s 9-3 lead was quickly whittled to 9-7 based on several mistakes.

East Union road Callie Gossman’s service run to a 15-14 lead, but the Eagles fell back behind 20-16.

Eckels, Pyror and Olivia Cheers came up with critical net play to pull the score to 24-22, but the Warhawks wore down the Eagles and came up with the plays necessary at the end to win.

“It’s not as bad going out against someone you play against,” Thatcher said about the Warhawks.

“They’re a good team.

She’s (SEW coach Jodi Clendenen) worked really hard at building a program over there.”

The Eagles lose seniors Eckels, Riley and Lauren Mitchell.

“I love my seniors. Cassidy and Olivia have been playing since they were

freshmen. Lauren really stepped into her sophomore year,” Thatcher said.

“They’re going to be hard to replace. The leadership that Olivia Eckels brings to the floor is unreal.”

East Union will return a group that picked up invaluable experience this fall. Olivia Cheers and Anna Collins were asked to have a larger role, and came through in Thatcher’s mind. Junior Megan Mitchell notched 579 assists in her first full season in the role. Several younger players served at over a 90 percent clip.

“We’re not the hardest kill hitters without Olivia, bit I think we’re going to be able to have multiple hitters on the floor,” Thatcher

said.

The Eagles will be in a position to succeed heading into 2018. East Union girls do love volleyball after all.
