CR mayor to Council approves study challenge Iowa for potential pool governor in upgrades GOP primary

CITY COUNCIL

CEDAR RAPIDS (AP) — Ron Corbett, the Cedar Rapids mayor and former Iowa House speaker, said Tuesday he will challenge Gov. Kim Reynolds for the Republican nomination for governor, saying it’s time for new leadership in Iowa.

Corbett, 56, told supporters his campaign would outline plans to tackle some of the state’s most pressing challenges, from the tight state budget to its polluted waterways. He said he hoped to do for Iowa what

By CARTER ECKL CNA staff reporter ceckl@crestonnews.com

The first step toward potential upgrades or a rebuild of Creston Municipal Pool has been put into motion after Creston City Council unanimously approved having a firm provide ideas for improvements during Tuesday’s regular meeting.

The proposal was submitted by pool committee spokesperson Samantha Baird. The pool committee recommended the firm Water’s Edge do the ini-

tial concept and evaluation work.

Before the council meeting, the recommendation had been approved by the Parks and Recreation board.

The total cost of the evaluation and review, plus concept planning, will be $8,400.

“The goal of that initial fee is to come up with a number to see how much it would cost either to upgrade, renovate, or replace the existing facility,” said Baird.

City Administrator Mike

Taylor suggested the funding for the initial phase be taken from fiscal year 2018 because a new pool would be considered a tourist attraction.

“It’s something we didn’t budget for. Its going to be in fiscal 2018. We’re going to have to amend for it, but the money is there,” said Taylor.

Baird followed by adding to her initial argument.

“Without information provided by the firm in this initial phase, it will be impossible to know how much something like that will

cost,” said Baird.

According to research done by the pool committee, the proposal would include multiple ideas from Water’s Edge on future pool designs. Those ideas will include potential renovations to the current pool as well as complete redesigns.

The pool committee reached out to five firms – before deciding on Water’s Edge – to gather information about how each firm hypothesized the design CITY | 2A

Trump returns to Iowa and unhappy independent voters DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa independents who helped Donald Trump win the presidency see last year’s tough-talking candidate as a thin-skinned chief executive and wish he’d show more grace.

Unaffiliated voters make up the largest percentage of the electorate in the Midwest state that backed Trump in 2016, after lifting Democrat Barack Obama to the White House in party caucuses and two straight elections. Ahead of Trump’s

visit to Iowa on Wednesday — his first since the election — several independents who voted for Trump expressed frustration with the president.

It’s not just his famous tweetstorms. It’s what they represent: a president distracted by investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and a court battle over his executive order barring refugees from majority-Muslim countries TRUMP | 2A

Tyler Peterson and Lenox senior Kaleb Anderson after throwing the ceremonial first pitch prior to the Tigers’ home game against East Union Tuesday night. Peterson, who was a teammate of Samo’s on the 2006 Class 1A state championship team, has invited several local dignitaries to throw out the first pitch at home games this season. Samo received the Bob Feller Class 1A Pitcher of the Year Award after leading the Tigers to the 2006 state championship. He had three no-hitters and 35 career pitching victories for coach Steve Westphal, including 14 during his senior season. Anderson pitched a two-hit shutout in Tuesday’s 15-0 victory over East Union (see page 7A).

DEATHS Duane Eigenheer Norwalk

Duane “Ike” Eigenheer, 79, of Norwalk, formerly of Lenox, died Sunday, June 18, 2017, at Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines.

The family will host a celebration of life from 5 to 8 p.m.

Friday, June 23, at Lenox Community Center.

P r i v a t e Eigenheer interment will follow at a later date. Memorial gifts may be made in his name to Lenox Fire Department or Lenox Ambulance, 303 S. Main St., Lenox, IA 50851.

Duane attended Eigenheer Elementary Country School before going to Lenox High School where he graduated in 1955. After graduation, Duane did custom farming, worked on the family farm and started buying his own land, including the family farm where he was born. In 1960, he joined

at the expense of tangible health care legislation and new tax policy.

“He’s so sidetracked,” said Chris Hungerford, a 47-yearold home-business owner from Marshalltown. “He gets off track on things he should just let go.”

And when he does spout off, he appears to lack constraint, said Scott Scherer, a 48-yearold chiropractor from Guttenberg, in northeast Iowa.

“Engage your brain before you engage your mouth,” Scherer advised, especially on matters pertaining to investigations. “Shut up. Just shut up, and let the investigation run its course.”

Scherer said he would vote again for Trump, but pauses a long time before declining to answer when asked if he approves of the job the president is doing.

Cody Marsh isn’t sure about voting for Trump a second time. The 32-year-old power-line technician from Tabor, in western Iowa, says, “It’s 5050.”

“People don’t take him seriously,” he said.

Unaffiliated, or “no party” voters as they are known in Iowa, make up 36 percent of the electorate, compared with 33 percent who register Republican and 31 percent registered Democrat.

Self-identified independents in Iowa voted for Trump over Democrat Hillary Clinton by a 13-percentage-point margin last year, according to exit polls conducted for the Associated Press and television networks They helped him capture 51.8 percent of the overall vote against Clinton.

Nationally, exit polls showed independents tilted toward Trump over Clinton by about a 4-percentage-point margin in November, but an AP-NORC poll conducted in June found that about twothirds of them disapprove of how he’s handling his job as

the Army National Guard based out of Corning and served until 1966, when he was honorably discharged.

On March 22, 1974, Duane married Noretta (Weddle) Mercer in Maryville, Missouri. Duane adopted Noretta’s two sons, Tracy and Troy and then daughters, Tammy and Tonya, were born.

In 2001, he sold his livestock but continued to farm the ground. He was a lifetime farmer, but increasing health problems in recent years forced him to rent out the land.

Duane was a member of Mercer Center Church.

Duane is survived by his wife Noretta; daughters, Tammy Eigenheer (Sean McGlaughlin) and Tonya (Jamie) Core; grandsons, Tanner, Caelen, Jonathon and Quinn; nieces, Kris (Mark) Berg, Darla (Bob) Hartzler, Roberta (Charlie) Hribal and Stacey (Chuck) Truman, and their families; and sons, Tracy and Troy, and their families.

Duane was preceded in death by his parents; sisters, June Nicholson and Lois Bothell and brothers-in-law, Alfred “Nick” Nicholson and George Bothell.

president.

In North Carolina, Republican pollster Paul Shumaker says he has seen internal polling that has warning signs for his state, where Trump prevailed last year. Independent voters are becoming frustrated with Trump, especially for failing so far to deliver on long-promised household economic issues such as health care, said Shumaker, an adviser to Republican Sen. Richard Burr.

Inaction on health care and any notable decline in the economy will hurt Trump’s ability to improve his numbers with independents, with broad implications for the midterm elections next year, Shumaker said. At stake in 2018 will be majority control of the House.

A favorable map and more Democrats up for re-election make the GOP more likely to add to its numbers in the Senate.

“How the president and members of Congress move forward and address the kitchen-table issues facing the American voters will determine the outcome of the 2018 elections,” he said.

In Iowa on Wednesday, Trump will be rallying his Republican base in Cedar Rapids.

It’s his first visit to the state since a Nov. 6 stop in Sioux City, two Trump days before the election.

Earlier this month, Vice President Mike Pence attended Republican Sen. Joni Ernst’s annual fundraiser, where he talked about job growth and low unemployment since the start of the year, although economists see much of it as a continuation of Obama policies.

Trump has only been in office five months.

It’s a message the Republican establishment is clinging to, especially those looking ahead to 2018.

process and potential implementation of a new municipal pool.

Creston’s Municipal Pool, which sits in McKinley Park, is more than 20 years old.

Water’s Edge designed both the Adams Community Aquatic Center in Corning and the Winterset Aquatic Center.

Pool committee member Jeremy Rounds, a regional planner with the Southern Iowa Council of Governments, worked with Water’s Edge on other community projects.

Rounds also discussed the many different options for funding including grants, public and private money.

“The idea that I have is that grants are going to fund a percentage of the project,” said Rounds. “How much percentage is dependent on the project.”

Baird also voiced her overall concern to make sure any upgrades to the pool would be feasible for the city.

“Ultimately, I don’t want to go through this process and come up with this huge number that’s unsus-

for a new game plan,” the former college football player told supporters from an outdoor stage in the NewBo neighborhood, which was among the hardest hit but now features new businesses. “It is today in this resilient city of Cedar Rapids that I stand proudly and announce I will be running for governor of the great state of Iowa.”

Corbett, who has served as mayor since 2009, introduced himself to statewide voters as a “conservative Republican with an independent streak.”

The announcement sets up a one-year campaign for the June 2018 GOP primary featuring Iowa’s first female governor and the popular mayor of the state’s second largest city. Several Democratic candidates are also running for their party’s nomination in what they see as a winnable race. The campaign is expected to be closely watched nationally because Iowa has trended Republican in recent years.

Reynolds became governor last month when her political mentor, longtime Gov. Terry Branstad, resigned to become the U.S. ambassador to China.

She starts as the favorite in the primary, with strong backing from the party establishment, including its social conservative base and business interests. Reynolds has $1 million in her campaign fund and plans to double that by the end of the year. She has tapped acting Lt. Gov. Adam Gregg as her running mate and this week released a list of 1,050 supporters in all 99 counties.

But Corbett argued that it’s time to turn the page

tainable,” said Baird. “It’s pointless to have a project like that and put out millions of dollars for a pool and then you can’t operate it years down the road.”

As the council discussed ideas for funding, Taylor mentioned conversations he and Baird had about how other communities found funding for their projects.

“They’ve learned some things f r o m s o m e o t h e r communities,” said Taylor.

“They’re kind of Taylor self-sustaining.”

During the initial research, the pool committee found a number of pools were able to receive multiyear endowments that provided new funding each year.

“I met with a lady that was instrumental in the Corning pool,” said Baird. “They actually raised enough money to set up an endowment that operates their pool and the city hasn’t paid for operating it yet.”

As of now, there is no timetable set for when first design ideas by Water’s Edge will be presented. from the Branstad era. He said the administration’s budgeting practices were creating “chaos and unpredictability” and that Branstad’s decision to privatize Medicaid two years ago was hurting the poor and disabled, who are facing cuts and delays in services.

He said he would push to simplify Iowa’s tax code by reducing rates while eliminating deductions, revitalize Iowa’s once top-ranked public schools by improving teacher pay and seek to implement a sales tax increase that was supported by voters in 2010 to fund environmental programs.

Iowa Democrats welcomed the news that Reynolds would face a serious challenger from within her party.

“This primary will leave the Republican nominee out of touch and weakened in 2018,” party chairman Derek Eadon said.

Party Chairman Jeff Kaufmann said the GOP has been “fortunate to have a Republican mayor in one of our large urban areas,” saying Corbett has served the state well. He said he would be neutral but continue to strongly support Reynolds in her capacity as governor, adding that primaries “are not a bad thing.”

Corbett had traveled the state in recent months to promote his new memoir, “Beyond Promises,” which recounts stories from his career in the Legislature, as president of the Chamber of Commerce in Cedar Rapids and his two terms as mayor.

Corbett served in the Iowa House from 1987 until 1999. He was House speaker during his final five years in office, helping push an income tax cut through the Republican-controlled Legislature.

Creston News Advertiser | Wednesday, June 21, 2017

Co-working: Is it right for you?

From Wayne J. Pantini, CEcD – Executive Director Union County Development Association

A fairly new concept has emerged in engaging local entrepreneurs. The concept is co-working or shared work space. This could be considered a spin off from a business incubator or a multi-tenant facility.

As technology advances and the opportunity to engage in online business, remotely working and the demand for minimalist office space, communities across the globe are exploring the idea

of co-working. Over the past 10-15 years, entrepreneurial communities have developed a business model that has various aspects. Some are more structured than others.

So what could this mean for Creston and Union County?

Well, imagine a space that provides broadband access, desk space, coffee (this is critical), conference table, private meeting rooms, your standard small kitchen, restrooms, lounge area, etc. ... rather than paying office space rent, you pay a weekly or monthly fee to access the space – similar to a gym membership.

Small independent businesses

working side by side. Sharing concepts, ideas, providing feedback to one another. Throwing a challenge up on the wall, and letting others provide constructive feedback. Some of these folks may have a specialty in marketing, online business, logistics, accounting and customer service.

UCDA is looking into this concept and seeking interested individuals who may work out of their home, work out of a coffee shop, library or anywhere there is access to Wi-Fi, or someone who is starting a side business, a remote worker or transient worker that just needs a space to hold a meeting or meet with

a client. Ideally, the members of this co-working space would take ownership and develop their own set of policies, structure and access and make a comfortable space that meets their needs.

Studies have shown when entrepreneurs are co-mingled, they inspire new thoughts, ideas, concepts they would normally not have come up with. Humans are social creatures and innovative.

If a space is created to where they can network and feed off each other, who knows the economic impact it may have for our community. This space could also offer business training class-

es, networking coffees, or pitchoff events.

This is a simple concept really.

But we need people who have an interest in this idea to contact us.

If there is enough interest, we will compile those individuals to formulate a focus group and learn the specifics of their needs and desires and share what we have discovered works and what doesn’t work in other communities.

So, there it is. Is it right for you? If you are interested, contact Union County Development Association at 641-782-2003. We would love to hear from you!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Freedom is not free From Marsha Wilson Creston

The Fourth of July is coming – Independence Day. I hope each of you takes the time to honor the American flag, our national anthem and Pledge of Allegiance.

I recently attended an event where the announcer asked for everyone to please remove their hats, place their hand on their heart and honor the national anthem. It was unbelievable the people who completely ignored what he said. Finally, someone hollered “stand up.” I do not usually sight see during this time, but I glanced over and a group of capable adults were drinking and having a good time. Halfway through, they realized what was going on ... on top of kids playing, screaming and parents acting like nothing was wrong.

Someone somewhere needs to educate this world on what these things mean.

Do you realize that every second, some man or woman somewhere in this world puts on a uniform?

Do you realize they do that to protect our freedom? Do you know how many holidays, family events and general family they miss? Do you realize they may be in 100-plus degree or in -30 degrees weather standing watch protecting our bases? It has become very clear many don’t know or care.

I am here to tell you that you had better start caring ... tomorrow is not promised and freedom is not free! Men and women have lost their lives, are disabled, have been held POW or went through hell for you to enjoy your life.

Until you have worn the uniform, walked in our shoes and lived the life we have lived, you probably wouldn’t understand ... but you need to ... at any moment your life and our country could change.

Once again, FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!

Losing degrees HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

The Los Angeles Times published the Los Angeles Coroner’s report on the late Carrie Fisher Monday. The toxicologist says she was on ecstasy, heroin, cocaine and alcohol when she lost consciousness and was unresponsive on the plane.

All we know is, Bill Cosby had better have an alibi.

Bill Cosby drew a hung jury which was unable to reach a verdict in his drug rape case Saturday in Philadelphia. His reputation is in tatters along with his many academic accolades. Bill Cosby has been stripped of so many honorary college degrees that pretty soon he may have to repeat high school.

George Clooney’s wife Amal Clooney gave birth to twins in a London hospital last Friday and he told reporters he’s looking forward to raising children. It’ll give him something to do. George is at that awkward age in today’s world when you are Clooney too old for Snapchat and too young for Life Alert.

Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield agreed to a $300 fine in relation to his arrest in Arkansas in February. He pleaded guilty to public intoxication, disorderly conduct and fleeing.

During my college comedy career at OU, alcohol was not the answer, but it was always my first guess.

A Democratic strategist said

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

Republicans must be hunted Tuesday after two weeks of shooting GOP lawmakers, fake-stabbing Trump onstage in Central Park and Kathy Griffin holding up the president’s severed head. It’s nuts. The 1960s just phoned the 2010s and said you win, you’re crazier.

The Supreme Court ruled Tuesday free speech allows football teams to trademark disparaging team names including the Washington Redskins.

Some Indian groups thought the name connoted racism, imperialism and cultural destruction.

They want the name changed to the Maryland Redskins.

Russia vowed to shoot down U.S. jets over Syria after the U.S. shot down a Russian-made Syrian jet that morning. It’s disheartening. Perhaps Democrats can impeach Trump for killing Nicole Brown Simpson because there’s more evidence of that than there is of his colluding with the Russians.

President Trump’s massive $1 trillion infrastructure proposal for the United States is expected to run into serious opposition from the libertarian wing Trump of the GOP. That makes sense. Libertarians believe the ideal weight for a government official is 3 pounds,

including the urn.

Senate Democrats boycotted meetings, avoided hearings and ignored quorum calls in an effort to run out the clock on a Trump Care vote. Obama Care cost them the House, the Senate and the White House, but they stay loyal. Senate Democrats make Camille Cosby look like a stalwart Al-Anon.

The Vatican newspaper reported on Tuesday that Pope Francis will soon announce plans to excommunicate all Roman Catholics who belong to the Mafia. The news reverberated up and down the Italian peninsula. The fellow who starts the pope’s car every morning should ask for more money.

The U.S. State Department offered aid to Britain after Monday night’s terror attack in London when a Welshman plowed his van into a crowd of Muslims in the street. It’s the least we could do. It appears the first student of London’s Donald Trump Driving School just aced his first driver’s test.

Prime Minister Theresa May condemned the Monday night terrorist attack in which a white guy drove into a bunch of Muslims. And you think Americans are torn by sectional strife? The English insist the terrorist who was arrested in the van attack on Muslims wasn’t white, he was Welsh.

Dennis Rodman returned from his trip to North Korea this week having brought dictator Kim Jung Un presents including a copy of Trump’s book, “The Art of the Deal.” It’s Kim Jung Un who can teach Trump how to negotiate a business deal. His favorite tactic is sign here or the dogs will eat you.

ACHS welcomes new provider GREENFIELD – Adair County Health System (ACHS) announces Nathan Tiwari, MD, will begin his family practice at Adair County Medical Clinics.

Tiwari will begin Tiwari seeing patients the first part of August 2017. He will also provide emergency room and inpatient services for Adair County Memorial Hospital.

Tiwari is currently from Minnesota. He will be relocating to the area with his wife and four children in July. “After four years of being in emergency medicine, I wanted to look into rural family practice medicine in Iowa. Iowa felt like a nat-

ural choice for us because my relatives are from the area,� said Tiwari. “I didn’t know what to expect when I set out looking for a job, but I was relieved to have found the folks at Adair County Health System. Their health system is bringing the best of current health practices to the quality of small town medicine.�

Tiwari will be primarily in Greenfield Adair County Medical Clinic with possible days at Stuart Adair County Medical Clinic.

Dear Heloise: After baking for a big party, the party was canceled. It’s all been put IN MY FREEZER. Please tell me if I can invite my family to eat this food: chicken soup, meatballs, lasagna, etc. – Dolores in California Dear Dolores: According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, freezer times are as follows: * Cooked poultry – four months * Uncooked poultry parts – nine months * Cooked meats – two to three months * Uncooked steaks or chops – four to 12 months * Uncooked ground meat – three to four months Check the food for freezer burn, and when in doubt, throw it out! – Heloise HERE’S A CLEVER IDEA Dear Heloise: I keep a jelly glass of flour and one of sugar in my cupboard so that if I need just a small amount of either, I don’t have to take out the whole canister. It’s very handy! – Barbara Z., Highland, Ind.

Barbara, that is a good idea, and I’m sure it’s one that some of my readers will use. – Heloise ONE-POT CHICKEN Dear Readers: One of my favorite dinners is a one pot dinner. They’re easy to make and very nutritious. The ingredients: 1 cup chopped onion 1 cup diced potato 1 clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon chopped parsley 2 tablespoons chopped celery 1 cup water 1 bay leaf 1/8 teaspoon thyme 1 cup peas 2 3-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breasts Heat a heavy skillet and add onions and potatoes; cook over medium heat while stirring until they begin to brown. Add the remaining ingredients as listed except for the peas and chicken.

Stir and bring to a boil. Place chicken in sauce; reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for about 12 minutes, then add peas and continue to simmer until the liquid is

reduced. This is about 5 minutes or so. To serve, place one chicken breast on each plate and spoon the sauce over the top.

If you like this recipe, I have several more just as delicious in my Main Dishes and More pamphlet. Just go to my website at www.

Heloise.com to order, or send a stamped (70 cents), self-addressed, long envelope, along with $3, to: Heloise/Main Dishes, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. It’s always nice to have a go-to recipe that’s easy to prepare and tastes as though it took hours to make. – Heloise SUPER SOUP Dear Heloise: I like to buy the 19-ounce size can of soup.

It usually has about four or five cubes of meat, about 1/2 can of vegetables, and the rest is broth. I usually buy a bag of frozen mixed vegetables, cook it, then freeze in small containers and add as needed to the soup. Works great! – Doris G., North Little Rock, Ark.

Area roundup: Strong ‘Bond’ in Wolverine win Tuesday Baseball

Nodaway Valley 11, Bedford 1 GREENFIELD — Nodaway Valley’s 11-1 home win over Bedford Monday was spurred by top of the batting order production and the pitching of Corbin Bond.

The top five hitters in the Wolverine lineup combined for five RBIs, Bond added two himself, and he allowed just two hits in five innings of work on the mound.

Beau Weinheimer came around to score three times, hit two doubles and drove in a run.

Lenox 6, Wayne 5 LENOX — A fourrun deficit was not enough to hold the Lenox baseball team Monday as the Tigers scores five runs in the bottom of the seventh to defeat Wayne 6-5.

Lenox loaded the bases with no outs and scored two runs on a single passed ball. After three more walks, including a Dawson Tullberg base on balls that scored a run, Derek Venteicher singled up the middle to pull the Tigers within one at 5-4.

Colton Hogan then hit a bloop single to end the ball game.

“Very proud of the way my players hung in there and believed in themselves the whole until the end,” Lenox coach Tyler Peterson said.

Softball

Lenox 4, Wayne 3 LENOX — Lenox softball kept Wayne off the scoreboard for much of of Monday’s game after early Falcon runs, and found a way to pull out a one-run victory when Shantelle Brown’s double scored Jacy Stoaks for a 4-3 win.

Makinna Fitzgerald and Brown both had two hits, and Fitzgerald scored twice.

TJ Stoaks struck out nine and allowed three hits in the win.

Central Decatur 2, Murray 0 LEON — Central Decatur’s Lily Simon hushed Murray’s bats in a 2-0 home win Monday.

Murray had just five hits, with Kendra Boles leading the way with two. Kayla Wookey struck out eight and allowed runs in the third and fifth innings.

Simon kept the Lady Mustangs off balance, striking out two and walking two in the win.

Daryn Nowlin had two hits and scored both of the Cardinal runs.

Diagonal 6, Mormon Trail 3 DIAGONAL — For just the second time this season, the Diagonal Maroonettes found themselves a win, doing so by a 6-3 margin Monday.

Diagonal tallied four runs in a big second inning and two in the fifth and fended off Mormon Trail for the victory.

pitches shutout, raps two doubles

By LARRY PETERSON

CNA senior feature writer lpeterson@crestonnews.com

LENOX — Lenox baseball is known for putting pressure on the opposing defense with bunts, stolen bases and hit-and-run plays.

Tiger coach Tyler Peterson played in two state championship games for longtime Lenox coach Steve Westphal, who had a large bag of tricks in his “small ball” repertoire.

But, the formula was a little different Tuesday with run-scoring drives in the gaps being the norm.

After a recent session working with Westphal, Peterson’s former mentor, at the Southwestern Community College field, and some extra work on

making good contact in batting practice, the Tigers unleashed their aggressive approach at the plate in a 15-0 home victory over East Union Tuesday night.

Winning pitcher Kaleb Anderson helped his own cause with two doubles.

Left fielder Aaron Schmitz and third baseman Derek Venteicher each drove in a pair of runs on two hits.

First baseman Colton Hogan also had a pair of hits.

The challenge for East Union became even greater with six fielding errors and eight Tigers reaching base either on walks or being hit by pitches.

“It was good to see us going up there and taking some good cuts, and not necessarily looking for walks,” Peterson said. “After failing behind Wayne last night 5-1 and coming back to beat them late, we talked today about coming in with a sense of urgency.

We came out ready to hit it hard.”

CNA sports editor kacarter@ crestonnews.com

SHENANDOAH — Coming off its first win in nearly three weeks, the Creston softball team stayed disciplined with its bats and continually hit the ball throughout Tuesday’s 14-4 road win over Shenandoah.

Creston jumped out to a quick 7-0 lead by the third inning.

Cayla Maitlen, Baker and Kiersten Latham all had hits that pushed runs across the plate in the five-run third.

“We came back in the third inning and had a nice five-run rally there,” Creston coach Mike McCabe said. “Got some nice small

ball. Got some nice bunts down from Brielle (Baker) and Kiersten Latham.”

Shenandoah miscues contributed greatly to the Creston cause as the Fillies made nine errors.

Creston’s defense, on the other hand, was better than usual as the Panthers had just one error.

The Panthers never slowed down offensively, scoring two in the fifth inning, two in the sixth and three in the seventh.

Kylee LaMasters, Maitlen and Mattie Wheeler each contributed two RBIs to the Panther cause.

Lexie Little, Chloe Hagle, Baker and Latham all had an Hagle RBI. Hagle had two hits, including a

By KALEB CARTER CNA sports editor kacarter@crestonnews.

SHENANDOAH — Creston took advantage of Shenandoah mistakes in Tuesday’s Hawkeye 10 matchup that ended in a comfortable 13-0 margin after five innings for the visiting Panthers.

Shenandoah shot itself in the foot continually. The Mustangs committed seven errors and walked six batters, allowing Creston to put together big innings.

The Panthers scored four before the Mustangs ever came to the plate, four more in the third, three in the fourth and two more to top off the scoring column in the fifth.

Michael Scherer had the lone extra base hit with a double, while the Scherer Panthers rattled off nine total.

Cody Crawford singled

twice.

“We hit the ball OK,” Creston coach Steve Birchard said. “We had nine hits, just a matter of stringing those together and scoring runs.”

Jaden Driskell worked efficiently threw the Mustangs’ order, surrendering just two hits walks and striking out four in the complete Driskell game effort.

“He kept throwing strikes, got behind a couple batters but kept battling back,” Birchard said.

“We were effective enough, ran the bases pretty well but still have some improvement to make there,” Birchard said.

The Creston junior varsity won 7-4, as Gavin Shawler allowed just one earned run in a complete game showing.

Gavin Gillam and Jack Frey both had two-run RBI doubles.

Nathan Pudenz had a sac fly that scored Hunter Fry. Creston 13, Shenandoah 0

run-scoring fifth inning triple for good measure.

“The nice thing was we didn’t get much out of our four or five hitter. We got some production out of some kids in the bottom part of the order,” McCabe said.

The Panthers’ confidence presumably carried over from Monday’s 12-0 shellacking of Clarinda.

“With the win the other night, McCabe gosh, it just does wonders,” McCabe said. “A lot of confidence, you carry yourself a little bit bigger. Hopefully tonight you go out with a lot more confidence in each other.”

LaMasters struck out six batters and allowed eight hits in one of her stronger varsity starts.

Shenandoah’s Makayla Adkins took the loss in the circle.

The Panthers continue to strive toward full health.

Lexie Little will miss Thursday’s games against St. Albert due upcoming dental surgery.

Junior varsity The Panther junior varsity team jumped ahead with four run in the first inning and added on with one in the third, three in the fouth and two in the sixth. They fended off a Fillie rally late to win 10-7.

Samantha Dunphy picked up the win and Rachel Boyer earned the save.

Sara Keeler and MaKenna Hudson had multiple hits each while Dunphy and Peyton Rice both hit doubles.

Driving in runs for the JV were Paige Busch with three, and Hudson, Keeler, Dunphy and Rice all with one.

“Proud of the way the girls jumped out on top in the first inning and battled out of a couple rough innings and then add to the lead when needed. Sam and Rachel both pitched well,” coach Teri Keeler said.

The junior varsity team is now 5-4.

UP NEXT — Creston (6-18 overall, 4-10 in the Hawkeye 10) travels to St. Albert (1-18 overall, 1-13 in the Hawkeye 10) for a doubleheader that begins at 5:30 p.m. Thursday.

LENOX — Two big innings was all Lenox needed to finish off East Union in a 12-0 victory Tuesday night.

Jacy Stoaks’ RBI ground ball sealed the mercy-rule win with the 12th run in the fourth inning. Her sister, freshman TJ Stoaks, improved to 12-10 in the pitching circle with a one-hit shutout on six strikeouts and two walks.

Lenox, now 12-11 for the season, used a barrage of hits to take a 7-0 lead in the second inning and added five more in the fourth.

“In the second we went double, triple, double, double, single, an out and then another single,” said Lenox coach Mandy Stoaks. “We sent 12 batters to the plate and seven scored. In the fourth inning we had sent eight batters to bat when we scored that fifth run with two outs. Coming off last night, it was good to keep it going like that.”

The Tigers defeated Wayne, 4-3 in eight innings, in a tough Pride of Iowa Conference battle Monday night. In that one, Jacy Stoaks singled with one out and scored the winning run on Shantelle Brown’s dou-

The Tigers scored six runs on three hits and three East Union errors in the first inning to give Anderson all the support he needed in gaining his first victoHogan ry of the season.

“I hadn’t pitched much for a little while and I was just trying to get back in the groove of things,” said Anderson, who allowed only two hits and one walk while gaining three strikeouts. “I don’t throw very hard, so I just try to keep batters off balance with a little curveball here and there. This year I started throwing a little sidearm curve, too.”

The Eagles could have extended the game into at least the fifth inning, trailing 11-0, but two ground balls were misplayed with two outs in the fourth, which sent the Tiger runs across for the 15-run mercy rule in four innings.

“We make a couple of mistakes and we get frustrated and start hanging our heads,” East Union coach Dave Campbell said. “We need to keep our heads up and just play ball.

Anderson is a good pitcher for them, but we have some guys who Gossman should be able to hit that. It hurts us to have three players out. (Mason) Gossman is out with a broken hand and that really

hurts our pitching situation.

Our right fielder is on a mission trip and our left fielder has a bad hamstring and can’t play in the field for us.”

Martinez Campb e l l praised the performance of starting pitcher Brayden Martinez, but with the Eagles unable to mount an offensive rally to get back into contention, he pulled his junior starter before reaching 65 pitches and the required two days rest under the state’s new pitch count rule.

“Brayden was doing a nice job, but we still have two more games this week,” Campbell said. “Sometimes you just have to decide what’s best for the team in the games coming up if you’re having trouble scoring anything in this one.”

UP NEXT — Lenox (124, 7-4 POI) plays at Fremont-Mills tonight before getting back into Pride of Iowa Conference play Thursday at Corning against Southwest Valley. East Union (3-10, 1-10) hosts Nodaway Valley Thursday and travels to Central Decatur on Friday.

DNR investigates spilled milk in Adair County tanker accident FONTANELLE – An accident with a tanker hauling milk east of Fontanelle Sunday evening caused a spill to reach the Middle Nodaway River.

When DNR investigators arrived Monday, Zimmerman Transport had removed the almost empty tanker. DNR found milk in a road ditch along Highway 92, flowing through a culvert into an unnamed tributary.

From there the milk ran about 1.3 miles into the Middle Nodaway River, creating a visible plume for about 50 yards downstream.

Because of its high organ-

ic content, milk can cause fish kills in streams. Oxygen levels in the stream drop as bacteria breaks down the milk. When milk concentrations are high, the resulting oxygen sag can kill fish and other aquatic organisms like crawdads and insect larvae.

The Wisconsin-based transport company had a vacuum truck on site Monday to recover pooled milk from the ditch, but high flows in the stream prevented recovery downstream.

It’s unknown how much milk reached the river or how much remains in the tanker. Estimates vary, but

the tanker could have been carrying 7,500 gallons.

DNR staff continues to investigate. Visibility in the tributary was limited Monday, so field staff inspected the stream Tuesday to determine effects on aquatic life.

The DNR will consider appropriate enforcement action.

The Fontanelle and Greenfield fire departments, Adair County Sheriff’s office and the Adair/ Guthrie County Emergency Management Coordinator responded to the accident Sunday night.
