Guelda Barker will shop for ingredients today and prepare a meal at her home Sunday with

“I can’t wait to see him,” Barker said. “I think he’s going to be a nut. I don’t know what he’ll try to pull!”

She was selected thanks to her grandson Cory Knedler who submitted her name and multiple

recipes to the show. Producers from New York City came to her house for an in-person interview and she has also spoken with them recently Barker via Skype.

This weekend is Ayr Days in Mount Ayr and Rocca plans to be her guest in Saturday’s 4 p.m. lo-

cal parade. They will ride together in her granddaughter Karmen Smith’s red convertible.

On Sunday, Barker and Rocca will start cooking in the morning hours at her house with cameras rolling.

They will complete the meal in the afternoon and serve to her family.

Democrats to face-off in Cedar Rapids WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic presidential candidates are descending on Iowa for the first face-off of their 2016 primary, a contest that remains dominated by the outsized political influence of Hillary Rodham Clinton.

All five Democratic primary candidates are on the program for a dinnertime fundraiser sponsored by the state party in Cedar Rapids, creating an opportunity for her challengers to confront Clinton before more than 1,200 influential party activists in the crucial caucus state.

An Associated PressGfK poll released this week found her standing falling among Democrats, with about Clinton 70 percent of Democrats giving Clinton positive marks, an 11-point drop from an April survey. Nearly a quarter of Democrats now say they see Clinton in an unfavorable light.

“I don’t like seeing that, obviously,” Clinton said of the

poll, speaking to reporters on Thursday. “But I think people know that I will fight for them. I’ll fight for their jobs, I’ll fight for their families, I’ll fight on behalf of better education and health care.”

Just 17 percent of the $47 million that Clinton raised since announcing her campaign came from contributions of $200 or less.

In comparison, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has fueled his insurgent challenge to Clinton with small donations, pulling in three-quarters of his more than $15.2 million haul

In recent weeks, Sanders has packed arenas with voters eager to hear the message of the self-described socialist, who’s become Clinton’s chief rival.

So far, he’s refused to directly criticize Clinton, though he’s questioned her positions.

Deaths Dick Walter

Dick developed a love for reading, music, sports and farming. He became an avid reader inheriting this gift from his Grandmother Belle Walter. Throughout his lifetime, he spent many hours reading history books, or an encyclopedia, and studying the Bible. As a young boy, he rode his bike to deliver the Des Moines Evening Tribune and Sunday paper and worked at his Dad’s Conoco Station. He also worked on his Dad’s farm and other farms in the area, helping in the hay fields, stripping blue grass, walking the bean fields, detasseling corn, or whatever he could do. That was where he developed his love of farming. Dick was active in all sports during his High School years. He was also active in music activities, in band, vocal, on the piano and the school plays.

After Dick graduated from Lenox High School in 1946, he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in 1950 from Iowa State University, with a major in Agriculture Economics and minors in Agronomy, History and Government. While attending ISU, he was awarded for his work on “The Iowa Agriculturist” and was also selected to be a member of the Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Music Fraternity, chosen for outstanding work in music and leadership.

He was promoted to Head Farm Underwriter and was responsible for all of the insurance underwritten in 6 Midwest states, with supervision of 4 underwriters.

Dick always wanted to farm, so they made the decision to move back to the Walter Family farm in 1953.

In 1975, Dick and Mildred sold their farm and Dick was hired as an Ag Loan Officer with First National Bank in Lenox, later becoming Vice President. In 1985, he accepted a position with the Community Bank of Wickenburg, Arizona where he served as Vice President.

After retiring in 1992, Dick and Mildred moved to Dover, Arkansas where they lived in a scenic countryside, surrounded by beautiful mountains and on the edge of the Ozark National Forest. Dick was happy spending the next nineteen years in a country setting. He spent hours planting gardens and beautiful flower beds, pruning fruit trees, chopping firewood, and mowing their acreage. Dick also enjoyed helping all of his family with their various home remodeling projects. In 2011, Dick and Mildred made their final move back to Lenox where they had first begun their life together.

In life and in death, Dick was a man of great determination with quiet strength, practical love, and a peaceful heart. He was a man devoted to the Lord. He was an active member of the Lenox Christian Church where he served as a Deacon, El-

After moving to Arkansas, Dick was an active member of the Dover First Baptist Church. No matter where his faith journey took him, it was important for him to worship and serve his Lord and Savior.

Dick and Mildred were blessed with three daughters and three sons. Dick had an unconditional love for his family and tried to be an example to them of how necessary it is to become educated or trained in a field of their choice, and to always work hard to achieve this goal. His love and devotion for his children extended on down to each grandchild and great-grandchild who all brought him much enjoyment. When each one became old enough to climb, they would crawl up onto his lap and play with the pen that was always in his pocket. He knew that “home” is the place where character is built and where sacrifice contributes to the foundation of strength.

Dick gave his family a part of who he was and a part of who we will become ... his love, wisdom and example will shape the lives of his

ENTERTAINMENT

Traveling in time Dear Heloise: When I go on a long plane trip, I set my watch to the TIME of my destination as soon as I get on the plane. This helps me figure out when to “nap” before arriving at my destination. It helps me adjust to the time change a little more easily. — J. Doogan in Boston I’ve done the same for many years of travel, especially when changing several time zones. If I’m going to be there only one day, I stay on my home time zone. If longer, I try to adjust to the local time when I arrive. If it’s dinnertime there, I eat dinner, even though it may only be midday “my” time. Soft landings, as we say in ballooning! — Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise. com SALT AND PEPPER, PLEASE Dear Heloise: I have trouble with the tiny holes in my salt and pepper shakers. I can

FAMILY CIRCUS® by Bill Keane

Hints from Heloise never get them clean, and it makes it hard to get the seasoning out. How can I clean them? — Natalie P., Portland, Ore. This can be a little bit of a bother and does tend to happen, especially if you live in a high-humidity area. The salt seems to turn into glue and really does stop up the holes.

I use a toothpick to punch through the hole, then let the shakers soak in hot water to dissolve the rest. The standby hint is to put some instant or regular rice (or a saltine cracker, if the shaker is big enough) inside the shaker to help absorb the moisture. — Heloise CLEANING AN IRON Dear Heloise: Can you suggest how to clean an iron’s plate? I have tried to clean it with dishwashing liquid and a scrubber with the iron heated, and it does not work. It is a relatively new iron, so I would rather not purchase another one. — Susan, via email

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

Susan, don’t run out and buy a new iron! Don’t try to clean the soleplate while the iron is on and hot. That will only cause the dish soap to “cook” on, as you probably found out.

If it’s really cruddy, go ahead and buy a tub of commercial iron cleaner. Buy the smallest size you can find, because it does not take much to clean the iron. Or run the hot iron over a damp cloth several times.

Over time, especially if you iron synthetic material or use the iron at too hot a setting, it will actually “burn” off some of the fibers. These burnt fibers then stick to the iron and really do build up. Good luck.

What she uses is of my dad’s old golf clubs that he no longer uses. She holds it by the head of the club and uses it like a cane.

Horoscope Saturday, July 18, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Oops. Stay light on your feet, because there will be a few hiccups with your home routine. Small appliances might break down, or minor breakages could occur. Family plans will change.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is an accident-prone day for your sign, so pay attention to everything you say and do.

If you are aware and mindful, you can skate through today beautifully.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Keep an eye on your money, because something unpredictable will happen today. You might find money; you might lose money. Guard your possessions against loss or theft.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Mercury is in your sign now, and today it is at odds with Uranus. This makes you impulsive, excitable and unpredictable! But you might have excellent ideas.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Something behind the scenes is stirring the pot for today, making you feel restless. This feeling permeates everything you do. Fear not, tomorrow is relaxing.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Be cool if a friend or a member of a group says something that really surprises you today.

You might want to feel you’re surprised, or you might want to hide it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be patient and courteous when talking to parents and bosses today, or you might regret it. Everyone (including you) is inclined to shoot from the hip and say whatever comes to mind.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Travel plans will be canceled, delayed or changed today, almost certainly. Likewise, plans related to medicine, the law and higher education will change as well.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Keep an eye on your bank account and paperwork with shared property, because something unexpected will occur today. Be on the lookout so that you are not caught off guard.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Minor arguments and hissy fits might take place with others today, especially partners and close friends. Plans are

changing, and tempers are frayed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Your work routine will be interrupted by computer crashes, canceled meetings, staff shortages, equipment breakdowns and such today. Allow extra time so you have wiggle room to cope with this.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is an accident-prone day for your kids, so parents should be vigilant. It’s also an accident-prone day for sports. Social events might be

changed or canceled.

YOU BORN TODAY You are committed to your ideals and your goals in life. Furthermore, you are courageous, hardworking and patient. Freedom of thought, action and choice are important to you. Settle your debts this year to prepare for financial accumulation in the next three years. To clear away indebtedness is the thrust of this year. Consolidate your affairs for future growth.

HEALTH

Tips for feeling fit at 30, 40, 50 and beyond BPT) — Do you ever wake up and think “Wow, I don’t feel as young as I used to?” It’s a sentiment shared by people of every age group. Fortunately, it doesn’t matter if you’re 20 or 60 - feeling fit and aging well can be a reality with the right mindset and proper exercise and nutrition.

Tavis Piattoly is a sports dietitian, expert nutritionist and co-founder of My Sports Dietitian. He lends his expert insight into how people of three different age groups can feel fit, healthy and happy: Young adults - up to age 30 Starting a career, getting married, buying a home these are just a few big life events people in this age category often experience.

It also means less time to focus on fitness, and often an increase in unhealthy eating on the go.

Physical activity: Piattoly suggests young adults do what they enjoy most, fitting it in on a regular basis.

“Any form of physical exercise and exertion is beneficial for the cardiovascu-

lar system, but adults under 30 usually like sporting events,” he says. “This is the age where former athletes or very active post-graduates are still looking to play a sport for fun.”

Nutrition: “The metabolic rate of this age group is declining, so they can’t live on fast food for breakfast, lunch and dinner like they did in college,” Piattoly says. “It’s time to clean up the diet and make smarter choices such as reducing sugar intake and avoiding fast food as much as possible. Prevention should be

the focus.”

Supplements: Piattoly says a multivitamin, Nordic Naturals fish oil and probiotic are a must.

Middle age - 30 to 50 In this age bracket, regular checkups with a physician are important to test for common conditions like high blood pressure. The stress of having children and growing a career can take a toll. Eating out due to lack of time becomes common and can cause weight gain.

Physical activity: Piattoly suggests regular strength training three to five days

per week to prevent the progression of muscle loss that begins around age 35.

“For cardiovascular-related exercises, it is important to do what you enjoy as you are more likely to stay motivated and consistent,” he says. “Yoga is recommended for those individuals who are looking to balance stress.”

Nutrition: “It’s important to eat smaller more frequent meals throughout the day, such as every three to four hours, and to make sure a source of lean protein is included at every meal

and snack,” Piattoly says.

“Protein is more thermogenic than fat and carbohydrates, so your body burns more calories when consuming protein.”

Supplements: In addition to all the supplements recommended for the young adult group, Piattoly suggests vitamin D and turmeric extract, a great natural anti-inflammatory agent, for 30 to 50-year-olds.

Boomers - 50 plus People of this age are concerned with their health and risk for disease due to family history or lifestyle factors from their youth.

Additionally, progressive loss of muscle mass and weaker bones increases risk for injury.

Physical activity: Piattoly says regular strength training three to five days per week prevents the progression of muscle loss and maintains good bone strength to prevent falls.

“For cardiovascular-related exercises, it is important to do what you enjoy as you are more likely to stay motivated and consistent,” he says. “You can still par-

ticipate in cardiovascular-related sports like tennis and basketball. For lower-impact sports that are easier on the joints, I like swimming and cycling.”

Nutrition: “Since the immune system is not as strong as it once was for this age group, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is key, such as five to 10 servings per day,” Piattoly says. “Protein is also a critical nutrient for the preservation of muscle mass. I usually recommend making a smoothie or shake at least once a day, which can include protein powder, fruit and some veggies.”

Supplements: “For heart and brain health, I’m a big fan of omega-3 fish oil, particularly from Nordic Naturals.

They make triglyceride form fish oil, which is the optimal form for absorption,” says Piattoly. “Fish oil also supports joint mobility and healthy immunity.”

Additionally, a vitamin D supplement for bone health and, potentially, calcium for osteoporosis, and creatine to reduce the risk of age-related muscle decline are all worthwhile considerations.

Kids thirsty, grumpy and fuzzy? Give them water!

When it’s bakin’ hot out there, marathon runner Ryan Hall (in 2014 he helped rival runner Meb Keflezighi become the first American to win the Boston Marathon in 31 years) starts his day with 20 ounces of water and drinks at least eight ounces before and after meals. But many famous performers aren’t so smart: Since 2010 Gene Simmons, Lady Gaga (twice), Katy Perry and Nick Cannon have canceled gigs because of dehydration.

It’s a desert out there for lots of North Americans, and no group is left higher or drier than kids 6-19. One study from Harvard found that more than 25 percent of young folks don’t drink any water during the day, and only around HALF get enough hydration. (They may drink lots of sugar-packed soda and juicy drinks, but a load of caffeine and excess sugar can trigger fluid loss.)

Adequate water intake is important for kids’ healthy circulation, metabolism, temperature regulation, digestion and urination. Even mild dehydration can trigger headaches, irritability, decreased physical performance and fuzzy thinking.

This summer, on active out-in-the-heat days AND rainy, stay-inside days, too, make sure your kids get plenty of water: 5-8 year olds need 34 ounces daily; 9-12, around 50 ounces; and 13 and older require around 64 ounces.

Start their day with an 8 ounce glass of water; put a frozen bottle into their lunchbox; keep a pitcher of cool water in the fridge; and have them drink at least 8 ounces before heading out

to play. Dilute all sports drinks and juices by half with water.

SWEETER DREAMS WITHOUT SLEEPING PILLS Madonna admits: “I’m a workaholic. I have insomnia.” Seems the lady who crooned “Bedtime Story” (“Let’s get unconscious, honey”) hasn’t discovered how to get 40 winks. And then there’s 21-year-old golfer Jordan Spieth, who rented two houses in Augusta, Georgia, last spring — one was just for sleeping — but still had a restless night before the final round of the Masters.

We bet they and the 72 million other adults in North America who’ve battled insomnia wish they could find a safe, effective way to fall and/or stay asleep. Well, the good news is that you don’t need sleeping pills (every user experiences some negative side effect). Researchers at Australia’s Melbourne Sleep Disorders Center found that four to six once-a-week training sessions using cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is safer than medications and gets better results. Seems the therapy’s sleep-enhancing practices let you fall asleep 20 minutes sooner, on average, and sleep 30 minutes more each night. That’ll avoid the insomnia hangover that can leave people feeling grumpy and fuzzy-brained.

It works by reducing anxiety and negative thoughts

about sleeplessness; improving your relationship with your bedroom; and restricting how much time you spend in bed (no lying there staring at the ceiling!).

It also teaches you mindbody relaxation techniques.

To find a cognitive behavioral therapy practitioner, go to www.sleepfoundation. org; search for “Choosing a CBT for Insomnia Specialist.” And for best results, make a point to get at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day, to eat healthfully and keep digital distractions OUT of the bedroom.

DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH YOU REALLY EAT? When Arnold (“You’ve got to help me remembuh!”)

Schwarzenegger confronts his altered memories in the 1990 movie “Total Recall,” what he thinks about his wife, his job, even his name, is wildly off-base. Most of you like to think you have total recall of your daily events, including how much you eat; think again. Self-reported dietary info turns out to be slipshod, particularly if you’re overweight, as 70 percent of North American adults are.

According to researchers who looked at data in the National Health and Nutrition Survey, the dietary habits reported by 67.3 percent of women and 58.7 percent of men were just “not physiologically plausible.”

So if you’re struggling to achieve a healthy weight, it might be because you don’t

have a realistic idea about how much you eat. These simple recall tools may help: Keep a food diary. iPhones and Android-based phones have apps to record food intake and give you your total calories eaten.

Next, figure out how many calories per day will maintain your current weight.

Dr. Mike’s Cleveland Clinic has a handy guide: If you’re overweight and sedentary, multiply your weight by 11; overweight but get 30-60 minutes of exercise three or more times a week; multiply your weight by 14; overweight but get 60 or more minutes of exercise at least four or more days a week, multiply your weight by 16.

Then, to lose 1 pound a week, make your daily intake 500 calories less than that number. Now you’ll have total recall of your diet — and a younger RealAge. AN ALARMING SIDE EFFECT OF NSAIDs: OVULATION STOPS If the Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton) had been taking any of the three common NSAIDs mentioned below for any of the aches and pains that accompany long days of globetrotting with Prince William, the chances of their being a little Prince George and little Princess Charlotte would have been greatly reduced.

New research revealed at the European League Against Rheumatism Annual Congress found that many women STOP ovulating after taking standard doses for just 10 days of diclofenac, naproxen and etoricoxib to ease mild back pain.

Only 6.3 percent of women in the study who took 100 mg of diclofenac daily, 25 percent of women using 500

mg of naproxen twice a day, and 27.3 percent of those taking 90 mg of etoricoxib (a cox-2 inhibitor) once a day, continued to ovulate, compared with 100 percent of women in the control group.

This is big news for women of child-bearing age and might indicate that these very effective pain relievers are doing more to your body (male or female) than you recognize. If they cause the endocrine system to halt ovulation, what else might they do?

Our advice? Limit your intake, and go for relief of minor aches and pains with: —An Epsom salt bath (mild temperature for best absorption of muscle-soothing minerals).

—Use RICE: Rest, ice, compression and elevation to ease a sore knee, twisted ankle or other such hurts.

—Consider alternating ice (10 minutes) with heat (20 minutes) to reduce inflammation and promote blood flow.

—Do gentle stretches to release muscle tension and increase flexibility.

DEALING WITH PLAYGROUND HEAT There’s one swing that’ll melt down faster than Tiger Woods’ at the 2015 U.S. Open, and that’s the swing on your child’s playground.

Back in the day when playground swings and slides were made of metal, we all knew when they could become just too hot to handle.

Today those playground fryers are made from brightly colored, space-age, heat-reducing polymers, making the equipment look a lot less menacing. But don’t be fooled, the threat of burns is

still there!

Exposure to direct sunlight, even when the air temperature is only in the 70s, can really turn up the heat on the plastic surfaces of slides, climbing platforms and swings. The Consumer Products Safety Commission points to the example of a child receiving second degree burns from a plastic slide on a day where the temps only reached 74 degrees Fahrenheit. And from 2001 to 2008, more incidences of playground thermal burns were reported from plastic, rubber and non-metal surfaces than from metal ones.

So, when you get to the playground, make sure to test the slides, swings, bars and other surfaces, including crawl-arounds, with your hand BEFORE your child starts playing. Remember, a child’s skin is much more sensitive than yours, and it burns easily.

Look for places for kids to play that are out of direct sunlight, but even in the shade you need to test the surfaces. Then you can have a great time making sure your kids get at least two hours of active playtime a day, and you can join in, too! *** Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of “The Dr. Oz Show,” and Mike Roizen, M.D. is Chief Wellness Officer and Chair of Wellness Institute at Cleveland Clinic.

Chat Mobility partners with L.E.R.T to help when disaster strikes When disaster strikes, communication is imperative. Chat Mobility recently donated four phones and service to Lutheran Early Response Team (L.E.R.T.) that serves southwest and south central Iowa and a portion of Missouri. These trained volunteers respond to local disasters providing needed equipment including chainsaws, rakes and now wireless phones to help those in need

reach friends and family.

“Having the ability to reach family and friends in a time of crisis offers families comfort when everything is falling apart,” said Robert Henke, L.E.R.T. Coordinator in Clarind. “We are excited to partner with Chat Mobility to offer to those we serve in times of need.”

Documents: More than $100K spent on medical cannabis cards DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa’s medical cannabis oil program has cost the state more than $100,000 to create and issue registration cards to about 50 people, even as the effort has faced criticism that it’s cumbersome and largely useless.

The Legislature last year approved a law that allows residents to use oil derived from the cannabis plant to treat chronic epilepsy and to set up a system for people to obtain registration cards. To implement the law, the Iowa Department of Transportation last fall asked Massachusetts-based MorphoTrust USA to design and create the cards.

Searching for grandfather clocks made by Arnold Nesheim My grandfather, Arnold Nesheim, lived on Mills St. in Creston after he retired from 1963 until he died in October of 1978. As a hobby, he built furniture for family and friends. One of the most important things he did was to build Grandfather clocks. He had 10 grandchildren. All but one grandchild has a grandfather clock, and we are currently searching for one to get for her.

My grandfather told my mother that he built clocks for some friends in Creston as well. So we are hoping to find someone in Creston that Grandad made a clock for who would be willing to sell it to our family. Of course, Grandad’s friend would be deceased by now, so hopefully a family member would remember that the grandfather clock was made for their father, or grandfather by Arnold Nesheim.

If you have any information, please contact me, Dianne Park, 801-278-3722 or 801-755-3131. Thank you!

Tigers rally to reach district finals

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

LENOX — Lenox had to come from behind to gain its third victory of the season over Bedford here Thursday night.

Caleb Lange pitched 4 2/3 effective innings of relief of Jared Hensley to pick up the win in a 7-5 victory over the Tigers’ Taylor County rival in the Class 1A District 14 semifinals.

Lenox (17-8) advances to Saturday’s 7 p.m. district championship game in St. Marys against fifth-ranked Martensdale-St. Marys. The Blue Devils (31-5) shut out Murray Thursday, 11-0, in six innings.

Bedford (12-12) scored five runs and sent 10 batters to the plate in the top of the third to take a 5-3 lead.

Working in muggy, 90-degree heat, Hensley tired on the mound and it became apparent Lange would not be saved any further for possible duty Saturday.

“Jared looked at me and I could tell he was done,” said Lenox co-coach Kurt Stoaks.

“He just got overheated. He needs to get home and get hydrated and cooled out.”

Still, the sophomore infielder/pitcher was a catalyst at the top of the Tiger

batting order. Hensley was 3-for-4 with a pair of runs scored and an RBI. Having pitched five innings in Tuesday’s win over East Union and more than four innings Thursday, Lange is still eligible to pitch six innings Saturday against a Martensdale-St. Marys team that is hitting .333 with 16 home runs, including seven by Tanner Foster.

“Caleb recovers pretty fast,” Stoaks said. “His pitch count was about 60 on Tuesday. He had one 20-pitch inning tonight and the rest were pretty low. Earlier this year he threw seven (innings) with one night off and when we played Bedford again he came back and threw seven.”

Lange, who went 1-2 with a run and two walks at the plate Thursday, said he should be prepared to pitch a bulk of Saturday’s game.

“I’ll just take care of my arm the best I can,” he said.

“Ice, heat it, ice again. We limited our pitching during the season to be ready for this. I Lange can throw six at Martensdale, and Jared will do

just fine if he has to come in.”

Stoaks said he expects to see either senior Spencer Hoyka or senior Tanner Foster on the mound for the Blue Devils. Foster, 4-0 with 52 strikeouts in 25 innings pitched and a 1.66 ERA, has had some arm issues. He pitched five innings of relief in a 5-4 eight-inning victory over Mount Ayr Tuesday.

Hoyka is 5-1 with 27 hits allowed in 43 innings, with 52 strikeouts and 15 walks.

Opposing batters are hitting .176 against him.

Lange, likewise, is having a stellar year. He picked up the win Thursday and came into the contest at 8-1 with a 1.66 ERA in 72 2/3 innings with 87 strikeouts and 51 walks. Opponents are batting only .154 against the senior lefthander.

Hensley was 4-4 with a 3.89 ERA in 36 innings with 45 hits allowed, 26 strikeouts and 27 walks going into Thursday’s game.

Comeback The key to Thursday’s win, Stoaks said, was a quick response to the momentum Bedford attained from its five-run third inning.

Wolverines battle back for district win

Lenox’s Jared Hensley connects on a leadoff single in the first inning against Bedford Thursday in Class 1A district play. Hensley had three hits and scored twice in the Tigers’ 7-5 victory.

EARLHAM — Nodaway Valley fought back from a 5-0 deficit here Thursday, stunning host Earlham with an 11-8 win over the Cardinals in the Class 1A District 13 semifinals.

The Cardinals chased Nodaway Valley starter Casey Ladd after just two innings, scoring four runs in the first inning and one in the second inning on six total hits.

Meanwhile, Earlham starter Micah Bailey held the Wolverines hitless through three innings, erasing the only two baserunners he allowed thanks to a double play and a pickoff move.

Jackson Lamb entered the game in relief of Ladd and set the Cardinals down in order in the bottom of the third inning.

But momentum shifted in the top of the fourth inning, as Nodaway Valley started off with three straight singles

from Nathan Andrews, Joe Herr and Lamb, with Lamb’s scoring Andrews from third base.

“It was definitely an ice breaker,” Lamb said. “We knew we’d get the bats going eventually, it just took until the fourth inning to get some momentum.”

Sam Marnin grounded out, moving the runners to second and third. Senior Zach Eblen followed with a two-run Eblen double to deep center field.

Casey Ladd singled and Beau Weinheimer reached on a fielder’s choice, before Colton Garside hit an RBI single. Jacob Baudler then hit an RBI sacrifice fly to center field.

Andrews drove an RBI double to deep center field and then scored on Herr’s

RBI single up the middle.

Nodaway Valley scored eight runs on eight hits in the top of the fourth inning to erase the 5-0 deficit. The Wolverines forced two pitching changes in the inning.

“We never really start fast, it seems like,” Nodaway Valley head coach Dan Jameson said. “In the dugout before the game, we talked about baseball is a roller coaster — each and every at-bat, inning, just through the whole game.

You just have to get through the tough times and keep on rolling. It all came together that one big inning.”

Earlham fought back to tie the score at 8-8 in the bottom half of the inning, however.

With two outs and a runner on second base, Jason Hopp drove a ball deep Eblen’s right in center field.

Eblen sprinted back and toward the fence, making an extended catch to end the inning.

A special night - similar to one-run triumph over Perry 19 years earlier Sometimes, it’s best to trust your gut instincts.

The “rational” side of me told me Tuesday night to head back to Creston after covering the Nodaway Valley vs. Orient-Macksburg district baseball game in Earlham, because it was going to be a long night of tracking down information from other tournament sites.

Scott Vicker was already up in Adel for Creston vs. No. 1-ranked ADM in a regional softball final.

But, something told me I should get up to Adel, just in case something special happened.

After all, if Creston would pull off the upset and gain the first trip to state in 19 years, then Scott could really use my help doing some video clips for our website.

And, since I coached most of these Creston girls in seventh or eighth-grade basketball — and ADM was a thorn in our side for a couple of years — I certainly would want to be there if these Panther girls turned the tide when it really mattered in regional softball.

Making the hurried trip from Earlham after the game had already started turned out to be the right decision.

Straight shots Larry Peterson sports writer

I wasn’t sure of that when the Panthers trailed 3-0 against Molly Jacobsen, the state’s strikeout leader. Slowly, but surely, Creston chipped away at the deficit until Alyssa Higgins’ two-out, two-run hit in the top of the seventh put the Panthers in front, 4-3.

When Brenna Baker caught the tailing pop fly for the third out in the bottom of the seventh, she tossed the ball aside and sprinted toward her teammates with pure glee on her face. (I have video of that moment on our website under “Videos - News Videos.”)

What these girls are doing caps a remarkable 2014-15 school year at Creston High School. It was the second police/fire escort into town of a team coming back from Dallas County. The whole situation of upsetting a favored team on their field was very similar to the football team’s wild overtime triumph at Dallas Center-Grimes last fall,

earning the school’s first ever appearance in the UNI-Dome.

I likened Higgins’ clutch hit to Chase Shiltz’s scamper to the corner of the end zone for the deciding two-point conversion that night.

And, the bedlam on the field was similar to what we saw Tuesday, as Panther players and fans mingled joyfully in the outfield.

After all, ADM had been ousted in the same circumstance last year in a regional final loss to eventual 3A champion Clarke.

But Creston knows the feeling of heartache in regional finals, and it was classy of coach McCabe to mention some of those standout kids of past teams that fell one game short, in Vicker’s account of the game Wednesday.

The way the bracket is set up, the possibility exists for my old high school (Fort Dodge) to meet Creston in the 4A state championship game. I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, but just thinking of that possibility is exciting, personally.

Then on Tuesday I’m covering Interstate 35 vs. Fort Dodge St. Edmond, which is the school all of my sister’s children attended. So, it’s kind of old home week for me

as well as getting a chance to see Creston play at state.

It should be a fun week.

Team members are seniors Brenna Baker, Natalie Mostek and Haylee LaMasters; juniors Josie Sickels, Shelby Palser, Alli Thomsen, Jami Sickels, Taylor Briley and Alyssa Higgins. Sophomores are Lexie Little, Morghan Frey, Mattie Wheeler, Morgan Shawler, Aleisha Larkin, Cali Foglesong, Hannah Hood and Cammy Rutherford. Freshmen on the varsity are Chloe Hagle, Cayla Maitlen, Kiersten Latham and Mykenna Hribal.

Coaches are Mike McCabe and Teri Keeler. Chris Leonard is the team trainer.

••• Back in 1996, I worked mostly in news to avoid the nightly sports duties while raising two young sons.

However, I helped out sports editor Chris Short quite a bit, and I happened to have the assignment when Creston knocked off 12thranked Perry, 6-5, in a 10-inning regional final at Urbandale.

That was Creston’s last appearance at state. McCabe was the assistant for coach Ron “Fox” Clinton, who also happened to be the coach of the SWCC team that

featured Teri Bunkofske, now Teri Keeler, the Panther assistant.

Much like Higgins, freshman Andrea Briley drove in center fielder Jessica Moeller from second base with two outs in the 10th inning to give the Panthers the deciding run in that three-hour battle with Perry.

Junior Sara Harris pitched 8 1/3 shutout innings of relief of Katie Turner that night. Those two shared pitching duties most nights down the tournament trail. Creston overcame the 21-strikeout performance of Perry freshman Katie Shimon and trailed 4-0 in the early going.

Gradually, just like Tuesday in Adel, the Panthers fought back to a 5-5 tie that held until the 10th.

Creston finished 32-16 that year. The Panthers lost to second-ranked Anamosa in their first state game, 8-2, but came back to defeat Forest City 7-2 in their first consolation game. No. 14 Carroll Kuemper, a conference rival, beat Creston 2-0 in the fifth-place game in Class 2A that year in a Please see SHOTS, page 2S

three-class tournament. It has grown to a five-class field.

Left fielder and leadoff batter Ashley Wimmer made the all-tournament team from Creston by hitting .667 in the three games.

Seniors were shortstop Jess Helma, catcher Julie Richter and right fielder Cari Briley. Other team members were Jenny Hanson, Moeller, Harris, Turner, Andrea Briley, Heidi Hellyer, Kelli Anthony, Abbie Feldman, Rachel Miller, Abbi Doyle, Jenny Pottinger, Mandy Harris and Leanne Owens.

••• If you’re a Creston fan who’s already checked in to the possibility of staying overnight in Fort Dodge after Monday’s opener, because of the possibility of a Tuesday morning game, you’ve probably experienced some frustration from my hometown.

RAGBRAI’s overnight stop Monday is — you guessed it — Fort Dodge.

Creston’s thrilling comeback for a 6-5 regional final victory over state-ranked Perry was hailed on the News Advertiser pages, including a photo of then-assistant coach Mike McCabe celebrating with players.

Extra traffic and nary a motel room are forecast for Monday. Humboldt and Webster City are nearby towns to look at as lodging alternatives.

Since it’s been 19 years, here are the directions to Harlan Rogers Sports Complex: Take High 169 north along the western edge of Fort Dodge to County D14 (north of the Iowa Central

Community College campus and a four-way stop at Highway 7).

Take a right (east) at D14 and proceed to Highway 413. The complex is a short distance to the north (left) on 413, across from Fort Dodge Regional Airport.

SWV Booster Club brings Dan Gable to Corning CORNING — Iowa Hawkeye coaching legend Dan Gable will speak at Adams County Speedway here Saturday.

Gable is a highly sought after public speaker and the Southwest Valley Booster Club hopes he will inspire communities and area teams through his message of performance improvement, team building, and overcoming adversity as a direct result of dedication and work ethic.

“This is a huge opportunity for not only Southwest Valley schools, but also all of the surrounding communities,” said Southwest Valley booster Kristi Drake.

“We hope our teams will build off his story and create enthusiasm within our schools and communities.”

Benefits of his message lie not only with athletes

and students, but also with community members.

“Athletes need to see the importance of team work, dedication, accountability, and hard work. Community members should learn ways to positively motivate our young athletes, coaches, and teachers. Dan Gable is bigger than just a coach and athlete, he will provide all of us important principles that we can use in our careers, our schools, and our families,” Drake said.

As head wrestling coach of the Iowa Hawkeyes, Dan Gable led the Hawkeyes to 21 Big Ten championships and 15 national titles.

“I believe that what I have to say will be entertaining, but in a fashion that everybody will be able to understand,” said Gable.

“Even better than that, be able to implement it. Now,

that’s easier said than done.

My words are just words, but I explain the process of being able to stick with that process to be able to make and see good results.”

Prior to the event, a meal will be served by the Adams County Cattlemen and Booster Club from 5-6 p.m.

Gable will speak at 6:15 p.m. In the case of rain, the event will be moved to the Activity Center at Southwest Valley High School, located at 902 9th St. Tickets are available for purchase at the door. Sponsors include New Balance Commodities, Bank Iowa, Akin Building Center, Southern Hill Veterinary Services and Okey Vernon First National Bank. Admission is $5. Southwest Valley students with a student ID and children 12 and under are free.

ST. MARYS — Martensdale-St. Marys sophomore Brett Barnett threw a no-hitter and struck out 10 here Thursday in an 11-0 win in six innings over Murray.

Murray’s only scoring chance came in the top of the second inning, when the first two batters of the inning reached base, but were stranded.

Otherwise, Barnett sat the Mustangs down in order in every inning.

“We kind of ran into a buzzsaw,” Murray head coach Travis Held said. “They hit the ball really well all over the field. And Barnett pitched one heck of a game.”

Kenny Boles started the game for Murray but lasted just one inning, giving up two runs on three hits after pitching 6 1/3 innings on Tuesday

against Lamoni.

Trey McHenry pitched the final five innings, giving up nine runs on eight hits.

“I could tell after the first inning, he just wasn’t throwing as hard as normal,” Held said about Boles. “I think he was just a little gassed.”

After the two-run first inning, Martensdale-St. Marys plated five runs with two outs in the second inning. McHenry held the Blue Devils scoreless after that until they scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Martensdale-St. Marys eventually walked off with the win on a Tanner Foster tworun home run.

“He (McHenry) didn’t do bad. They just hit the ball really well tonight,” Held said.

“They found every gap possible.”

Murray finishes its season with a record of 9-9, while

Martensdale-St. Marys improved to 31-5. The Blue Devils advance to Saturday’s Class 1A District 14 final in St. Marys against Lenox, which was a 7-5 winner over Bedford on Thursday.

Seven seniors played their final game in a Murray uniform Thursday. Seniors on the team were Braydon Held, Justin Jones, McHenry, Matt Rockhold, Brandon Short, Mason Simmons and Frank Thacker.

“It was probably one of the hardest working groups I’ve coached,” coach Held said.

“I’ve coached them the last three years. They’d do anything I asked them to do, no questions. Have had some pretty good leadership with McHenry, Jones, Held and Simmons. Those four seniors have really had some great leadership.”

Gravlin leads division at rodeo nationals ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo. — Emily Gravlin of Creston is the average leader in Reined Cow Horse competition at the National High School Rodeo Finals.

The short go for this event was moved to 4 p.m. today and can be watched on live stream at http:/www.nhsratv.com.

The event runs through Saturday.

Gravlin had a 577 average in the competition to lead runner-up Wyatt Hersberger of Litchfield Park, Ariz.

“I just thought I had to get that ball, because it was a big game-clincher,” Eblen said.

“I just gave it my all and went and got it. I was running as fast as I could.”

Lamb, who was on the mound at the time, was appreciative of the run-saving catch.

“He’s been doing that all year,” Lamb said. “He made that look easy. Definitely ESPN, just like his one the other night.”

Eblen followed his catch with a one-out double to deep center field again in the top of the fifth inning, eventually scoring on Weinheimer’s RBI single to give Nodaway Valley a 9-8 lead.

The Wolverines tacked on two insurance runs in the top of the sixth inning, as Andrews and Herr both reached on a throwing error by third baseman Will Poffenberger.

After two outs, Eblen dropped an 0-2 curveball in over the top of Poffenberger into shallow left field, scoring both Andrews and Herr for the 11-8 final margin.

Eblen finished the game 3-for-4 with two doubles and four RBI. “I kept telling him, ‘You’ve had the worst luck of anybody

this year. You’ve hit the ball hard all year. Eventually it’s going to happen,’” Jameson said. “We kept on with that approach and he made it happen. He had a couple of hard hits and then with two strikes, he just cut it back and put a curveball over the third baseman’s head to score two. That was a heck of an at-bat.”

Lamb worked out of jams in each of the final two innings. He worked around a leadoff single in the sixth inning, ending the inning when Alan Schmidt hit a liner right back to him and then turning and throwing to first base to double off Bailey.

The tying run stood at the plate with two outs and runners on first and second in the seventh inning, but Lamb made a sliding catch near the dugout in foul territory to end the game.

“That was a great end,” Lamb said. “That was just to cap everything off. That scared me, because right after that batter it was the top of the lineup again.”

Nodaway Valley improved to 14-12 with the win and advances to Saturday’s Class 1A District 13 final in Van Meter against Van Meter (25-9).

Earlham’s season ends with a record of 20-8.

In the bottom of the third, Dusten Reed and Lange each singled with one out. Reed scored on a balk and Dawson Tullberg drove in Lange with a single past Bedford third baseman Clay Cox. When Brenden Christensen drew a walk, Cox took over for Seth Willets on the mound for the Bulldogs.

Cox allowed only one more run the rest of the way, when Hensley singled and ended up scoring from third on a wild pitch in the fourth.

But Lange was equally stingy, retiring the last nine batters he faced. Seven different Tigers had at least one hit for the night.

“In that third inning we got off to a rough start and got down 5-3,” Lange said.

“They are a lot better than

their record shows. We were able to get some hits and come back. If we keep hitting the ball like we’ve been doing and play solid defense, we can make it a really good game against Martensdale.”

Cox had a double and single with an RBI for Bedford. Devin Wheeler and Willets had two hits each.
