71 years later, Juergens’ Race tightening, Clinton relies wait is over on firewall of support

Retired Clearfield businessman attended 1945 World Series ■

DIAGONAL — Dale Juergens had been a Chicago Cubs fan for 10 years when he and his father, Elmer “Shorty” Juergens, sat together in Wrigley Field for Games 6 and 7 of the 1945 World Series.

When The Detroit Tigers — the team that beat the Cubs in 1935 when Dale became a fan as a 12-year-old — beat the Cubs in the 1945 seventh game, 9-3, he didn’t expect he’d have to wait too long to see his team on baseball’s big stage again, seeking the team’s first championship since 1908.

“They went in 1945 after making it in 1935, so we just thought in a few years they’d be back,” Juergens said. “It just seemed like no big deal. We’d wait another five or six years

Dale Juergens of rural Diagonal watches Game 5 of the World Series Sunday night as the Chicago Cubs won 3-2 to close the Cleveland Indians’ advantage in the bestof-seven series to 3-2. Juergens, a Cubs fan since 1935, attended the final two games of the 1945 World Series in Wrigley Field with his father. Until Sunday’s game, Game 6 of the 1945 series was the last time the Cubs won a World Series game in Wrigley Field.

and they’d be back in the World Series.”

Little did Juergens know that he’d have to wait 71 years. Finally, in 2016, he watched on television as the Cubs disposed of the Los Angeles Dodgers to earn a spot in the World Series, where they trail the Cleveland Indians three games to two after a 3-2 victory Sunday night.

That was the first World Series victory by the Cubs in Wrigley Field since Juergens and his father sat along the left field line for Game 6 in 1945, in seats that cost $6 each.

“Six-dollar tickets, can you believe it?” Juergens said. “I can’t hardly believe it.”

Juergens was starting to wonder if he’d ever see

Tactics increasingly divide pipeline protesters BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Protesters at the demonstration against the Dakota Access pipeline are increasingly divided over how to stop the project, with militant younger activists seeking more aggressive tactics and an older crowd arguing for peaceful protest centered on prayer.

The differences came to a head last week after law enforcement officers in riot gear forced hundreds of protesters off an encampment on private property. In response, some demonstrators torched three vehicles on a bridge, creating a blockade that effectively cut off easy access to the pipeline construction zone and made it far harder for the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and nearby residents to get to Bismarck for errands and medical appointments.

Many other protesters insist that their cause cannot resort to law breaking, and they support the threat of eviction that the main camp has issued against people who would cause problems.

“We don’t want people instigating things that are going to get out of hand. We don’t need them,” said Don

that electing Clinton and a Democratic-controlled Congress would be “the worst of all possible things.”

“For those of us who lived through the 1990s, it’s sort of a feeling like deja vu,” he said. “This is what life with the Clinton’s looks like. It’s always a scandal then there’s an investigation.”

With more than 23 million ballots already cast through early voting, it’s unclear whether Trump has the time or organizational capacity to improve his standing enough over the next week to win the White House.

While Clinton’s newest email controversy may help Trump pick up support in older, whiter states like Ohio and Iowa, the Republican nominee still faces a narrow pathway to winning the 270 electoral votes — one that includes defending states like Arizona and Utah that Republicans have won for decades.

With the potential for more violence, tribal elders have asked that children be removed from the camp.

“They want the kids out of here if things get ugly,” said Emmett White Temple, a 55-year-old member of the Standing Rock Sioux.

A Denver woman was charged Monday with attempted murder by authorities who said she fired three shots at law officers during Thursday’s operation.

The sprawling encampment known as Oceti Sakowin, or Seven Council Fires camp, is on Army Corps of Engineers land.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Clinton is pushing her supporters to cast early ballots in key battleground states, as Donald Trump tries to make up ground with intensified attacks following the FBI’s renewed examination of her email practices.

As her national lead shrinks in the final week of the race, Clinton is relying on a firewall of support in more d e m o graphically diverse Clinton s w i n g states.

Beyond the White House, Republicans see the email exchanges as a new opportunity to win over voters for dozens of down-ballot races that will determine House and Senate control next year.

House Speaker Paul Ryan told Fox News he voted for Trump last week and warned

50 miles south of Bismarck.

They worry the pipeline will disturb cultural artifacts and threaten drinking water sources on the Standing Rock Sioux’s nearby reservation and downstream.

The pipeline’s operator, Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners, insists the project is safe. The tribe is fighting the pipeline’s permitting process in federal court.

Tribal elders condemned the destruction of the vehicles, White Temple said. “People were getting chewed out for the aggression,� he said of a meeting Sunday at the main protest camp. “We have to keep on with prayer, but those people are still digging that pipeline,� he said. Others believe “violence gets action.�

Over the weekend, construction crews worked right next to the camp that authorities cleared Thursday, when they arrested more than 140 people.

Winter clothing, propane tanks, wood, tires, bottled

water and other items belonging to the protesters lay next to heavy equipment.

The vehicles set on fire were still smoldering Sunday as at least 10 dozen law enforcement vehicles and officers from different jurisdictions stood just beyond a cement barricade.

Cody Hall, a former spokesman for one of the encampment’s factions, said the entire camp must remain united to successfully fight the pipeline. He said the violence seen Thursday was “expected.� “I’m not going to say anything bad about the fire being put up,� Hall said. “It happens and we are dealing with it.�

Chief Arvol Looking Horse, a spiritual leader of the Great Sioux Nation, told The Associated Press on Monday that leaders of seven tribal nations are deciding whether they will meet with representatives from Energy Transfer Partners.

Looking Horse said tribal leaders would want any meeting to be on neutral ground. He said a meeting Wednesday in Bismarck is being discussed.

At least 6 dead,10 hurt in 2-bus crash in Baltimore BALTIMORE (AP) — A school bus blocks away from its first stop Tuesday morning rear-ended a car, hit the entrance to a cemetery and then veered into an oncoming commuter bus in a crash that killed at least six people and injured 10, authorities said.

No children were on board the school bus, whose driver was killed along with at least five people on the Maryland Transit Administration bus, Baltimore Police spokesman T.J. Smith said. “It literally looks like a bomb exploded in the bus.

It’s catastrophic damage,�

Smith said.

The only other occupant of the school bus, an aide, was taken to a hospital, as were the car driver and eight people from the commuter bus, Smith told a news conference. Their injuries ranged from minor to critical, he said.

The school bus slammed into the MTA bus, crumpling both driver’s areas, and then raked the side of the commuter bus, tearing off sheet metal. It finally came to a stop with its front end buried toward the back of the MTA bus.

Smith noted a lack of skid

marks at the crash scene on Frederick Avenue near Loudon Park Cemetery, leading to what he called a working theory that the school bus driver had suffered a medical emergency.

Firefighters were still working their way through the wreckage of the commuter bus about two hours after the 7 a.m. crash, Baltimore Fire Chief Niles Ford said. “This was a significant, significant wreck, so there are still portions of the bus that our people have not been able to fully access,�

Ford said.

He said firefighters also had to enter the school bus from the rear and cut out the seats to reach the driver and aide.

Smith characterized it as an accident investigation, not a crime-scene investigation, despite the presence of homicide detectives. Smith said they were called because they are accustomed to conducting death investigations.

University of Maryland Medical Center spokeswoman Lisa Clough said the hospital received one patient in critical condition and four others in fair condition.

Series. The Cubs’ best pitcher, Claude Passeau, won the first game but he got hit by a batted ball and wasn’t available anymore. The Cubs won Game 6 with Hank Borowy, a pitcher they got from the Yankees. He pitched again at the start of Game 7, but I think Detroit got five runs in the first inning and that was it for him.�

Juergens had a stroke of good fortune in obtaining two tickets for himself and his father to attend the final two games of the 1945 World Series in Chicago.

After graduating from Prescott High School in 1941 he enrolled at Iowa State University as a dairy industry student. But, World War II interrupted those plans and changed the course of his life. “As you know, in December 1941 all hell broke loose,� Juergens said.

Because of medical issues he had as a child, Juergens was not accepted into military service, but he was able to help in another way. He assisted in manufacturing 22-millimeter shells in a U.S. defense plant, Kingsbury Ordinance Plant. He lived nearby in LaPorte, Indiana, a Chicago Cubs hotbed near South Bend. “The Chicago Tribune had an article where you

Both campaigns argued Tuesday they were on the path to victory. “We’re running like we’re 20 points behind,� said Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook. “We are going to win this election, but it’s important that every one of our supporters turns out.� “We’re in great shape.

We’re on offense everywhere,� said Trump deputy campaign manager David Bossie. “There’s an enthusiasm gap for their voters.� Both spoke on ABC’s “Good Morning America.�

With just a week left to go before Election Day, the race for the White House remains a test of a simple question: Will the conventional rules of modern-day campaigns apply to a 2016 election that has been anything but conventional?

Clinton’s campaign has spent nearly two years developing an extensive organizing apparatus, building off the political machine that twice boosted President Barack Obama to victory. Her team has pounded the airwaves with advertising, assembled an expansive voter data file and constructed a nationwide political organization that dwarfs her opponent’s.

Her team is focused on pushing voters to the polls for early voting in critical states such as Florida, Nevada and Colorado, where

Juergens could send in and try to win World Series tickets,� Juergens said. “By the luck of the draw, I got two tickets to Game 6 and Game 7. I wrote my dad and told him.

He was a sports fan; he liked the New York Yankees. I think he was on the next train to Chicago!�

Juergens is the first to admit that despite being billed as the “world championship of baseball,� the 1945 matchup was not baseball at its best, because so many players were servicemen in the war, which was just concluding. “The Tigers had just gotten Hank Greenberg back,�

Juergens said. “It wasn’t the caliber of baseball you might expect in the World one-third of the expected ballots have already been cast. On Tuesday, she plans to pound Trump at rallies across Florida.

The Democratic presidential nominee and her allies in a dozen battleground states have more than 4,800 people knocking on doors, making phone calls and otherwise working to support her candidacy. Clinton’s numbers, as reported in recent campaign filings, tripled those of Trump and the national and state Republican parties.

The New York businessman over the past year has largely ignored the key components of recent winning campaigns, depending instead on massive rallies and free media coverage to drive his outsider candidacy. This week, he’s devoting his most valuable resource — his time — to states where polls suggest he’s trailing Clinton by significant margins.

Trump had two rallies Monday in Michigan, a state that last went for a Republican presid e n t i a l Trump nominee in 1988. On Tuesday, he’s scheduled to appear with running mate Mike Pence in Wisconsin, which hasn’t backed a Republican for president since Ronald Reagan’s re-election in 1984. “Her election would mire our government and

After working three years at the defense plant, Juergens would go on to hold a couple of jobs in southeast Iowa before accepting a position at State Savings Bank in Bedford in 1949. Three years later, he moved to the Clearfield bank and stayed in Clearfield the rest of his working life.

It was just earlier this year, at the age of 92, that Juergens gave up his work as a federal crop insurance agent at his office in Clearfield. The insurance firm was purchased by Vince Taylor of Creston.

A widower, Juergens now shares a residence near Diagonal with Bert Jezek.

Amid tragic news this week of the death of his sonin-law in Virginia, Juergens sat in front of his television watching Game 5 of this year’s World Series. While his family’s not in a celebratory mood this week, he was our country in a constitutional crisis that we cannot afford,� he declared Monday in Grand Rapids, Michigan, pointing to the FBI’s examination as evidence the former secretary of state might face a criminal trial as president.

Clinton, defending herself from the new FBI examination, focused Monday on battleground Ohio, a state Trump’s team concedes he must win and where he shows signs of a possible victory. “There is no case here,�

Clinton insisted. “Most people have decided a long time ago what they think about all this.�

Mook, her campaign manager, has decried what he called a “blatant double standard� following a CNBC report that FBI Director James Comey opposed releasing details about possible Russian interference in the U.S. election because it was too close to Election Day. Comey issued a letter to congressional leaders on Friday about the FBI’s new effort into Clinton’s correspondence.

The AP has not confirmed the CNBC report.

The FBI declined comment Monday.

Meanwhile, the ongoing mystery of Trump’s tax returns arose again. The New York Times reported Monday night that in the 1990s, Trump avoided

glad to see the Cubs claim a victory in historic Wrigley Field, maintaining a chance to stay alive in the series tonight in Cleveland.

Finally, he no longer can say he sat in Wrigley Field the last time the Cubs won a World Series game there. “This team, when they jumped out to a 10-game lead early you just had a feeling that they would do something,� Juergens said. “I didn’t make any plans to go this year. I don’t think the public had much of a chance. The season ticket holders maybe, but the general public really had to pay.�

Third-party ticket services reported median prices ranging from $3,300 to $5,000 per ticket for the three days in Chicago, with a maximum sale of $19,200 for a ticket to Saturday’s game.

If the Indians win tonight or Wednesday, does Juergens expect the Cubs to contend again in time for him to see the championship flag raised in Wrigley Field? “Well, here I am at 93, and I can’t say for sure it’s going to happen,� he said. “But we have a lot of good young players, so I would think they’d be in contention for the next few years. If they do win it, can you imagine the celebration in Chicago?

It would be unbelievable.� paying potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes in a way even his own lawyers considered questionable, using a maneuver Congress explicitly banned in 2004. Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks said Trump’s approach was appropriate.

As for Trump’s charge that a Clinton election might prompt “a constitutional crisis,� the Justice Department’s office of legal counsel said in 1973 that criminally prosecuting a president would unconstitutionally undermine the executive branch. A 2000 memo reached a similar conclusion. Presidents can face civil lawsuits.

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, November 1, 2016

Presidential race gets crazier HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

Donald Trump’s hopes soared Friday after the FBI found evidence on Hillary’s e-mails while investigating Anthony Weiner for sexting minors on his smartphone. You can’t make it up.

Sesame Street just opened by announcing that today’s news is being brought to you by the letters W, T and F. Hillary Clinton denied knowing if the FBI found new evidence on her by examining the smart-phone of Huma Abedin’s husband, Anthony Weiner. His sexting name is Carlos Danger.

Hillary is calling for Carlos Danger to be deported and for the inventor of the Internet, Al Gore, to be executed.

The New York Times said what caused the FBI to re-open the probe into Hillary came from e-mails FBI agents found on Huma Abedin’s husband Anthony Weiner’s smart phone. It begs

one question. How many ladies must suffer humiliation from being exposed to Anthony Weiner’s hand-held device?

FBI Director Jim Comey reopened the probe into Hillary’s e-mail scandal 10 days before the election. Get your popcorn and enjoy the show. There are six huge movie studios in Hollywood that were built 100 years ago with all the money they made by tying blondes to the railroad tracks.

Hillary Clinton was defiant on the FBI reopening its probe into her e-mails Friday. Originally the FBI didn’t recommend charges against Hillary because they didn’t think they could get a conviction against her. But then

the Cubs made it into the World Series and now anything’s possible.

The FBI’s investigation into Hillary’s e-mail scandal involves possible obstruction of justice and multiple counts of concealment of public records. It’s all part of the cycle of life. You start out your public career by investigating Richard Nixon and you end it by channeling Richard Nixon.

The Washington Post poll tightened between Trump and Hillary Friday. One has 10 groping charges and the other’s under FBI probe again. Americans are so angry over their presidential choices that the Broadway audiences at “Hamilton!” have begun booing the victory scene at Yorktown.

Porn star Jessica Drake charged this week that Donald Trump propositioned her 10 years ago at a Tahoe golf tournament and turned him down. It’s

a new low for American politics.

Porn stars now say that the idea of having sex with a presidential candidate makes them feel dirty and ashamed.

Hillary Clinton was ripped by staffers for daytime drinking in emails released Friday. It helps her chances. The Pentagon won’t let a president do anything to hurt the country, Congress won’t let a president do anything to help the country, and that pretty much leaves your entertainment value.

Indiana Governor Mike Pence was unharmed after the passenger plane carrying him skidded of the runway at LaGuardia Airport. He’s had a long three months. Mike Pence was reluctant to be Trump’s running mate in the first place because he thinks two men on the same ticket looks gay.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton hosted a lengthy press conference on Wednesday

It was nice to read the kind words from Jim Garrett about my letters. They don’t always come out so nice, as I’ve screwed up more than one or two in my letter-writing career.

In my latest, I commented about Amtrak’s intention to move their depot location and service into our restored depot. The Creston City Council commented that there are many questions to be resolved before such an endeavor can take place, which I also agree.

However, as I read in the newspaper, the Amtrak representative indicated that if Creston did not move forward on Amtrak’s intentions, they might consider not

stopping in Creston. That would be a tragedy. If the paper was correct in reporting that statement, their statement sounded a little threatening. I sincerely hope we’ve not reached that awful push-and-shove point so early in our negotiations with them. At the same time, we should try to work out the details with them.

Osceola, another Amtrak stop, is only 30 miles away, with far better parking and that is a real threat. Perhaps the railroad could share some of their parking with Amtrak.

On another note, the story about a new store in the downtown, Thrums Up, is just the kind of development we need to help draw customers into this older business section. Unique, one-ofa-kind businesses like Old Market

evolving into custom-made furniture in the daytime and classes at night; a specialized hobby shop; an unusual bookstore; special places to eat and drink; a theater; and clothing and furniture stores, are each a drawing card in their own right.

Let us not forget, every time Quilts and Other Notions has an event, they bring buses into the downtown. That’s a captive customer base, folks. In the past, Joyce Franklin made up a sort of game that forced people to at least visit the other retailers in the downtown. We are a scattered lot in the old downtown, but as each store pulls their own special customers, we need to encourage them to discover what else we have to offer.

Tag – you’re on!

Dear Heloise: I bought merchandise for a WEDDING GIFT. Do I leave the price tags off or keep the price tags on? The reason I want to leave the price tags on is because the bride may want to return the gift. Without the tags, she would not know where I bought the gift. – J.S. in Ohio I would leave the price tag on the item and either black out only the price, using a marker, or cover up the price using the tape version of correction fluid. If you can still read the price, take an ink pen and doodle circles until it cannot be read. This helps the store take the item back more easily because you left all the important store numbers intact, and the bride (or groom) will still know where to return the item. – Heloise PICO DE GALLO Dear Heloise: With Thanksgiving weeks away, I’d love to serve your pico de gallo as an appetizer, but unfortunately I can’t find the recipe. Please reprint quickly! – Sarah F., via email I’m happy to reprint this recipe because it can be served with so many foods!

The ingredients you need are: 1 cup coarsely chopped tomato 1/4 cup coarsely chopped onion

Hints from Heloise

1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro (more, if you like) 2-3 minced, fresh serrano peppers (the more you add, the hotter the flavor) 1/2 teaspoon salt Mix all the ingredients (except the salt). Once mixed, sprinkle with the salt and serve immediately. It’s that easy! This recipe and many others are available in my Heloise’s Seasonings, Sauces and Substitutes pamphlet.

Add this pico de gallo to potatoes and eggs for a new breakfast sensation! – Heloise SECURITY CODE Dear Heloise: When disposing of credit cards, be sure to scratch out the three-digit card security code (CSC) or card verification code (CVC) that is located on the back. Even with shredding, it’s good practice to scratch off the number,

I researched removable car-seat covers, but they’re complicated to set up and remove as often as I need to. I thought of bath rugs with the rubber backing.

Spartans volleyball confident for postseason Wins in three of last five matches have SWCC thinking positive n

STAFF REPORT LEXINGTON, MISSOURI — Southwestern Community College split a pair of matches Friday in

the squad’s last action before the ICCAC NJCAA Region XI-B Division II tournament.

A win at North Iowa Community College last Wednesday secured the Spartans a spot in the tournament.

The Spartans defeated Labette 3-2 Saturday.

Southwestern had lost in three straight sets when the two played Sep. 3.

“It was nice to see how much we’ve grown and

how much w e ’ v e gotten better,” Southwestern c o a c h Aleesha C l e a v e r Cleever said.

“I feel like we are playing really well together and we’re finally meshed and are getting it.”

Southwestern went up early with a 25-15 set one

win, and then fell behind with losses of 25-22 and 2515. SWCC roared back with wins if 25-19 and an emphatic 15-5 fifth set.

“That entire match our whole team was clicking.

Our passing, our setting our hitting, everything was just coming together,” assistant coach Rand Hazelton said.

The Spartan hitters came alive in the third set as they combined for 24 kills in just the fourth and fifth sets combined.

Sydney Maynes and Brooke Decker both tallied nine kills each.

Ashley Kopplin and Brittany Langendoerfer totalled 63 digs between the two of them.

Taylor Damewood and Zoey Courtier accounted for all of SWCC’s assists, as they totalled 19 and 12 respectively.

Creston’s middle school cross country teams were busy recently.

On Oct. 13, the Panthers ran at the Hawkeye 10 Conference meet.

This year’s meet was run on the campus of Iowa Western Community College.

The course there was different from when the meet was held in Council Bluffs a coupe of years ago.

“We had never been to the course at Council Bluffs before so it was a new experience for everyone,” said Creston middle school coach Maggie Arnold.

The new layout took some adjusting.

“It was flat and fast — not something that our kids are used to,” Arnold said. “Some of the athletes did not get as fast of a start as they should have and had to play catchup through the rest of the race.”

Creston did have an individual

champion. Clayton Stafford won the boys race in 11 minutes, 42 seconds.

“Clayton ran really well. He went out from the gun and chased the gator,” Arnold said.

Stafford’s strong start propelled him to the win.

“Clayton’s strength is in the first part of his race. He knows that there are athletes with better kicks, so he beats them and the beginning and punishes them in the middle of the race, so it doesn’t come down to a kick,” Arnold said. “He had a little extra left at the end of the race and really ran away with it in the final stretch.”

Stafford took control early.

“Watching Clayton win that boys race was exciting. There was no doubt the entire race that he was in control,” Arnold said. “This is his first year going out for cross country and he has done a tremendous job. He is a very coachable athlete and competes hard. He lacked the

confidence in the first meet to just take over, but from then on, he has really went out hard and has made an expectation for himself to win every race. He is a natural talent and can do big things to help out the boys team in high school next year.”

The Panthers had two other medalists. Braelyn Baker was third in the girls race, while Rachel Boyer was 10th. Morgan Buxton placed 11th to just miss placing.

The Panther girls and boys concluded their season at the Washburn Classic, the state junior high meet on Oct. 22 in Saydel.

The state meet was the last opportunity for the athletes to compete for the season and for the majority of them, their last middle school race ever,” Arnold said.

Stafford was sixth in the boys eighth grade race to lead the Panthers.

“Clayton Stafford really stood out again for us,” Arnold said. “He ran

an even faster time on Saturday than he did on Thursday (at the Hawkeye 10 meet).”

Baker was eighth in the girls race.

Arnold touted Paige Davis’ race.

Davis was 47th.

“Paige Davis improved her time from last year at the same meet,” Arnold said. “I always show the kids their times from the year before and the goal is to always improve — whether that be by two seconds or two minutes. Paige is a kid that has improved her time from last year and every meet this season. She is the most improved athlete on the team.”

The meet was an opportunity for the eighth-graders to compare how they improved.

“As well as comparing times each meet to how they did last year, I also show them results from previous years, so they can gauge where they CRESTON| 8A

SWCC men’s cross country runs well in South Dakota STAFF REPORT

YANKTON, SD — Southwestern Community College’s men’s cross country team enjoyed a solid performance at the Mount Marty Invitational on Oct. 22 in Yankton, SD. The Spartans placed fifth in a field of 11 teams.

The Spartans competed against teams mainly from the NAIA’s Great Plains Athletic Conference and the North Star Athletic Conference in the 8K race.

Nate Hoyt, from Shenandoah, led the Spartans with a 19th-place finish in 26 minutes, 55 seconds. Lenox product Jacob Bolinger was 34th in 27:44. Kevin Dietrich, from Port Naches, Texas, ran a personal best time of 27:49 to placed

37th. Jalen Two Leggins, from Hardin, Montana, was 48th in 28:13. Chance Webster, from Panora, was 58th in a personal best time of 28:43.

Spartans coach Nick Ekel was pleased with how the men performed in the second half of the race.

“Coming into today our goal was to be conservative for the first two miles before making a move over the last three miles,” Ekel said. “They did just that, and we were rewarded with a fifth place team finish.”

SWCC’s younger runners competed well.

“I was especially impressed with the poise and competitiveness our freshmen exhibited today, as Kevin Dietrich,

Chance Webster, Collin Maag, and Travis Purdy all set personal records on a true cross country course,” Ekel said.

The women placed eighth of nine teams over the 5K course.

The Spartans were led by Kimberly Zepeda’s 14th-place finish in 19:35. East Union product Alyssa Proffitt was 58th in 21:18. Odette Muziranenge, from West Des Moines, set a personal best in placing 88th in 23:08. Jenna Faust, from Earlham, was 93rd in 23:37. Red Oak product Jasmine Forward was 99th in a personal best time of 24:05. “(Saturday) was about fixing some things as we head into the Region XI Championships and the National Championships,” Ekel said. “I was very im-

pressed with the performance of Odette and Jasmine, as they were able to come away with personal bests.”

Men’s results: 5th of 11 teams (103 runners) SWCC Results — 19. Nate Hoyt, 26:55; 34. Jacob Bolinger, 27:44; 37. Kevin Dietrich, 27:49; 48. Jalen Two Leggins, 28:13; 58. Chance Webster, 28:43; 89.

are at among the high school kids from when they were in middle school,” Arnold said. “This group of eighth grade girls has a lot of talent (all seven) and they will make an impact next year at the high school level.”

Both the boys and girls gave benefited from new additions.

“Morgan Buxton, another new addition as an eighth grader, has ran consistently in the second and third spot this season for our girls team,” Arnold said. “Braelyn and Morgan decided to try cross country after a successful seventh grade track season. They are the 1,500 and 800 meter seventh-grade record holders as well as members of the seventh grade 4x800 record-setting relay.”

Returning eighth graders showed plenty of measurable improvement.

“Ali Christensen, Paige Davis and Keagan Trembly have been dropping a minute or more from their previous season times each race,” Arnold said.

The seventh grade newcomers had plenty of success that excited Arnold.

“Seventh graders Justin Parsons, Tristan Callahan, Lucas Veatch, and Isaac Shields have also made huge improvements from the start of the season,” Arnold said.

“Parsons and Shields have gotten a lot stronger as runners from the beginning of the season. If there is a hill to be ran, those two run it fiercely and pick up a lot of momentum coming out of them.”

3-2.

The Red Dragons took the last two sets after a backand-forth affair. Southwestern jumped on top with a 2520 win. Wentworth evened it up with a 25-17 win, and then fell behind 2-1 when the Spartans took set three 25-20.

But SWCC didn’t have enough left in the tank playing its second consecutive five set match of the day.

The Red Dragons grabbed wins of 25-13 and 15-10 to round out the match.

“I think that should give us some confidence going into Wednesday. I think the second one we very easily could have won that one,” Hazelton said. “It’s just, it was our second straight match which both of them went five, and we got a bit fatigued at the end.”

Jade Peterson led Peterson the Spartan attack with 12 of the squad’s 40 kills. Three Wentworth players on the other hand, had double digit kills.

Damewood had 22 assists.

Despite the loss, the Spartans look ahead with confidence toward their Wednesday match with Iowa Central, a squad they took a set from Oct. 12.

“Everything is coming together at the right time for us,” Hazelton said. “We’re injury free, we’ve been injury-free for a couple weeks which is has helped us kind

A stripped, emotional Lady Gaga comes to life on ‘Joanne’ NEW YORK (AP) — It’s 1:30 a.m. and Lady Gaga is on the brink of tears.

The pop star’s new album has been out for 90 minutes and she just celebrated by wrapping up two performances: first inside the New York City bar she used to sing as an unsigned teenager, and then on top of the venue for all of her feverish fans screaming loudly outside.

A lot has happened to get to this moment: She dealt with the constant reminder of 2013’s “ARTPOP” not matching the success of her previous albums; she parted ways with her manager; and she announced she and her fiance, actor Taylor Kinney, were taking a break.

But since “ARTPOP,” she picked up her sixth Grammy for her jazz album with Tony Bennett; performed at the Oscars — twice — and earned a nomination for an original song; won a Golden Globe this year for her role in “American Horror Story”; and drew raves for her national anthem performance at this year’s Super Bowl.

Sitting inside her trailer parked outside The Bitter End, Gaga is tearyeyed as she discusses the new sound she delivers on “Joanne,” a rock-popcountry adventure that’s a departure from the dance-flavored electronic sound that made her a multiplatinum juggernaut.

“Yeah. I mean, I’ve changed a lot.

I’ve healed a lot. I’ve healed a lot,” she said, pausing. “Period.”

“But I “ — she paused again — “I feel like it would be so strange to hear my music, or hear anyone’s music really, and not hear the change. I change a lot and that’s just who I am. And I’m just going to keep (expletive) being that way, you know.

“The happiest that I am is when I’m just really truly being myself and I’ve always said that to my fans and guess what, they help me make that real,” she said.

“Joanne,” released Friday, embarks on new territory as Gaga’s voice takes the center stage. “There’s no Auto-Tune on any of my vocals. Not one,” she said.

She started writing new material two years ago, and then at this year’s

Super Bowl she gave Mark Ronson a demo of some songs (he performed “Uptown Funk” there with Bruno Mars).

“He said to me, ‘I know you can write great songs,’ (but) he said, ‘...

What do you HAVE to write about?

That’s what I want you to write,’” she recalled.

The result is more emotional tracks compared to past hits, ranging in topics from her love life to her friend’s battle with cancer (the bonus track “Grigio Girls”) to her aunt Joanne, who died from lupus before Gaga was born (Joanne is also Gaga’s middle name). The closing track, “Angel Down,” is about Trayvon Martin.

“It was really hard,” she said of writing personal songs. “But it was the best thing I ever did going there, because once you go there, you can’t get darker than there ‘cause you just got to look inside and whatever it is it is, and then you pick yourself up and keep going.”

“Sinner’s Prayer” sounds like it could be played in a Western with lyrics like, “Hear my sinner’s prayer/I am what I am/And I don’t wanna break the heart of any other man but you.” Other songs have lyrics that could be about Gaga’s own relationship: “Million Reasons” is about a failing relationship, and on the first single, “Perfect Illusion,” she sings: “I still feel the blow/But at least now I know/It wasn’t love, it wasn’t love/It was a perfect illusion.”

“This album is about being tough,” she said. “My dad was tough, he lost his sister out of nowhere, you know.

My grandma lost her daughter out of nowhere. My other grandma, she raised herself. I come from a long line of tough family (members) and ... I wanted to write a record that reminded people that no matter what perfect illusion you have of me — right — that I’m probably a lot like you.”

The album features some respected musicians helping Gaga round out her sound, including frequent collaborator RedOne, Josh Homme of Queen of the Stone Age, Beck, Flor-

ence Welch, Hillary Lindsey and Jeff Bhasker, who won producer of the year at this year’s Grammys. Ronson led the team as executive producer and co-wrote each song alongside Gaga.

“I’m not Calvin Harris or some mastermind of dance music at all, but I think, I just kind of obviously guess that the reason she asked me to work on this record with her was because she was probably looking to do something that was a departure from what she’s done,” said Ronson, who has produced for Amy Winehouse, Mars and others.

“I enjoy like a really big pop song that’s about nothing as well — I DJ’d and played songs like that in the club for 22 years — but I think that as soon as I was aware that she sort of had so many stories to tell ... that was going to be able to fill an album ... it felt like a really great place to go,” he added.

Some have not been accepting of the new sound: The New York Times said the album “fishes for inspiration” and The Chainsmokers and Patrick Carney of the Black Keys dissed “Perfect Illusion,” which peaked at No. 15 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

“She’s earned the right to experiment and do things differently,” said John Janick, the president of Interscope Records, where Gaga debuted as a nascent dance singer in 2008. “It doesn’t sound like everything else on the radio, but we take that as challenge to say, ‘We want to shift culture.

We want the world to move toward her and not move toward everybody else.”

Gaga has showcased the new songs in a small environment — on her Dive Bar Tour with Bud Light. She will perform the songs on even a bigger stage when she headlines the Super Bowl halftime show next year.

“I think it’s always a challenge honestly with album-to-album with me because I’m always changing (and) I’ve never made an album that was like the one before it. So I don’t know if everyone’s waiting for me to do that, but it might be easier if everyone just got the memo,” she said.

Charlamagne tha God has book coming next spring NEW YORK (AP) — After interviewing Hillary Clinton, Kanye West and Jay Z, among others, Charlamagne tha God is ready for something really challenging: writing a book.

The ever-raw television personality and co-host of the syndicated radio show “The Breakfast Club” has a deal with Simon & Schuster imprint Touchstone for “Black Privilege: Opportunity Comes to Those Who

2

Create It.” The book is scheduled for next spring, the publisher told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

With “brutally honest insights,” Charlamagne plans to recount his rise from a dirt road in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, to national fame through radio and MTV. Charlamagne said in a statement that as an English teacher’s son he had always loved books and working a book himself was a “dream fulfilled.”
