Nancy was born in Malvern on April 10, 1923, and graduated from Malvern High School in 1942. She wanted to become a writer, but World War II (she tried to enlist in the WAC’s, but they said she was a wee bit too small), marriage and children intervened. She lived in Texas and Colorado before returning briefly to Malvern in 1959, then moved to Red Oak and finally to Creston in 1963.

Nancy was a lifelong Presbyterian and was active in church activities throughout her life. Most recently, she delighted in writing “The Pencil Box,” a short column for the First Presbyterian Church’s newsletter. ‘Twas always a surprise to read what she had to say each month. She was a long-time member of the VFW Auxiliary and always encouraged others to fly the flag.

Nancy and her husband Harold supported and were active in the Creston Community Playhouse for many years. Harold did the lighting and sound and Nancy did the acting. She and Harold flew around Iowa in their Piper Tri-pacer for numerous delightful years and once even managed to fly through a rainbow.

A memorial service will be held 11 a.m. Friday, July 15, at First Presbyterian Church in Creston with interment in Malvern Cemetery the following day.

Pastor Jim Woodworth will officiate. Pearson Family Funeral Service, 809 W. Montgomery St., in Creston is in charge of the arrangements. Online condolences may be left at www.pearsonfuneralhomes.com.

Over the years, Suzanne worked in Chicago and Naples, Florida, and Creston as a key punch operator. She was a title clerk in Alamo, Texas, and at M&M Motors in Creston. She was fortunate to be a stay-at-home mom while she was married to Paul. She was a member of Lenox United Presbyterian Church.

Left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Wendy Kinyon of Creston; a stepdaughter, Tonya Glenn and husband Tony of Osceola; a stepson, Jamie Kinyon and wife Lori of Hebron; two grandchildren, Damon Hayes and Grace Keeler, both of Creston; two sisters, Sandra Faust and husband Jim of Rising Sun, Indiana, and Kathy Buck and husband Gary of Gardner, Kansas; three nieces, Debbie Anderson and husband Ron of Aurora, Indiana, Amy Marino and husband Phil of Lexington, Kentucky, and Holly Thompson and friend Daren Kirkpatrick of Des Moines; a nephew, Phil Thompson and wife Melissa of Indianola; five great-nieces; one great-nephew; one great-great-niece; an aunt, Helen Blazek of Osceola; along with many cousins and a host of friends.

Suzanne is preceded in death by her parents, Russell and Irene Wurster; her husband Bobby Moore; her son Bobby Moore, Jr. and her ex-husband, Paul Kinyon.

We will forever hold the precious memory of Suzanne’s smile in our hearts.

May she be at peace in God’s loving care.

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, July 5, 2016

Protectionism won’t make America great Donald Trump is an optimist.

He believes there is nothing wrong with America that autarky can’t fix.

Trump’s trade speech was a high-octane assault on the American free-trade regime that has been a matter of a bipartisan consensus for decades and a bulwark of the post-World War II international order — not to mention an article of GOP economic orthodoxy.

Trump declared himself in favor of cut-rate AFL-CIO economics, and offers the same simplistic, conspiracy-tinged belief that the American economy is “rigged” as Bernie Sanders does.

Indeed, if trade policy is all that mattered, the protectionist Ohio Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown should be on Trump’s VP shortlist as well as Hillary’s.

Few protectionists will ever avow, “Yes, I fear and loathe free trade.” They couch their protectionism in opposition to existing free-trade agreements and in the

King Features commentary Rich Lowry

promise of somehow reaching wondrously different and better agreements — after all existing ones are ripped up.

This is the Trump tack. He argues that every trade deal is deeply flawed, but not because there’s an inherent problem with free trade, but because in roughly 70 years we have never once produced a competent negotiating team. What are the odds?

The Trump/Sanders story is that the middle class has been devastated by trade, especially in the manufacturing sector.

The truth is, if the metric is employment, U.S. manufacturing was in decline before the advent of the North American Free Trade Agreement or the World

Trade Organization. As Scott Lincicome of the Cato Institute points out, the absolute number of manufacturing workers has been dropping since 1979.

The main cause is technology-driven productivity gains that make it possible to do more with fewer workers. The American manufacturing sector is more productive than ever. If Trump really wants to relive the glory days of the old American factory, he’ll have to make America less technologically proficient again.

There is no doubt that trade has downsides, but Trump won’t acknowledge the significant benefits: Cheap goods are a boon to consumers; domestic manufacturers use imports as inputs in their own products; and, as the U.S. loses less sophisticated operations, it focuses on higher-skilled, more productive manufacturing.

This is the future of a firstworld economy where the tide of innovation won’t be stopped.

Protectionists love to invoke Harley-Davidson in the 1980s as an example of tariffs saving a storied American brand. The motorcycle company did get a temporary respite from competition, but it was fundamentally saved by a retooling of its business.

We hear less often of all those troubled companies that have successfully lobbied for trade protection through the years, only to go out of business anyway.

Trump’s punitive tariffs would be a festival of special-interest lobbying, with businesses clamoring for protection at the expense of everyone else — whatever jobs were saved by President Barack Obama’s tariffs on Chinese tires in 2009 came at an inordinate cost to the rest of the economy.

At the end of the day, protectionism is like gun control: Even if you accept its premises, facts on the ground make it unrealistic to implement.

“U.S. manufacturers,”

Lincicome writes, “have evolved over decades to become integral links in a breathtakingly complex global value chain — whereby producers across continents cooperate to produce a single product based on their respective comparative advantages.” It is often hard to disentangle what is American and what is foreign in such recognizably “all-American” products as cars manufactured by the Big Three.

Even researchers who have found a negative impact on U.S. wages and jobs from the initial “shock” after China entered the global economy don’t believe the problem was free trade per se.

Rather, it was the slow adjustment of the U.S. labor market to new conditions. There are ways to try to address this, but none of them make for compelling demagoguery.

The Trump/Sanders story is too gratifyingly emotive to let facts or logic intrude.

To Miss Wiggins: I would offer this. Yes, Creston’s downtown area is less than it used to be.

I remember when it was announced that Walmart was coming to town. The business people, myself included, were invited to a meeting conducted by some professor from Iowa State University in Ames. He had done a study on the effects of having a Walmart locate in a town.

First of all let me say, none of the business people wanted to share space with Walmart, but there was nothing legally we could do to stop it. The expert told us that yes, their business would effect our businesses, but it would be far worse for

the surrounding towns. That, as I remember, was somewhat consoling, but we didn’t want the surrounding towns to be affected either. The economic atmosphere was changing and we would have to change with it. They felt Creston’s population was enough to support a Walmart. They were not interested in towns like Greenfield and Winterset with the smaller populations. Many years later, with the intrusion of Osceola, another small town, their thinking has obviously changed.

The Iowa State expert offered ways for us to better compete with the huge store. Find a niche that the big store will not want to fool with and specialize in that. My main product was selling new books. I adjusted my

thinking and added used books for sale and trade. That worked well till the coming of electronic books, internet buying and to a smaller extent, big box stores.

Miss Wiggins, there are so many factors that can affect business in a town like Creston. Our town, with a larger and more diverse population, has trouble building a single consensus that the smaller towns do not. You may not see it, but there is much pride and community involvement in Creston.

You mentioned that you considered retiring in Creston. Many have already come back home and are helping to bring the old town that you remember back into play. You should also come back home and get involved with Creston’s revitalization.

Online order nets sale price Dear Heloise: We live in a rural area and shop in the “big city” only once a week.

The paper advertised a BIG SALE for an item that we use a lot of, but the sale would end before our next trip to that big-box store. So I ordered it online for store pickup, at the sale price, and picked it up during our next convenient visit. Plus, we were assured that it would be there waiting for us and not sold out. Easy, and saves money! – Raul in Oak View, Calif.

This is a smart hint for all consumers. Online purchases can really take the hassle out of shopping. It’s convenient, and a great way to take advantage of sales when you can’t physically make it to the store. I love it!

Creston softball gives good effort, falls at top-rated foe

By RYAN KRONBERG, CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

WINTERSET — Creston’s softball team kept right with Class 4A top-ranked Winterset during Friday’s non-conference matchup.

One base hit by the Huskies was enough to give them a 2-0 win.

The Huskies scored both runs on a two-out two-run single.

Even then, Creston’s defense made play after play.

“They had some loud outs,” said Creston coach Mike McCabe. “We caught four or five balls on the warning track or in the gaps.”

Winterset pitching held Creston to one hit in seven innings, a Lexi Little double.

Sophie Stover allowed one walk and struck out six in four and one-

third innings.

Regan Thompson allowed no walks and struck out three in two and two-thirds innings.

“They have very good pitch- Fogelsong ing,” McCabe said.

Creston pitcher Cali Fogelsong scattered four hits, walked one and struck out none.

“She pitched pretty well,” McCabe said. “They’re going to hit the ball. Fortunately for us, they hit some right at us. She did better as the game went on. She kept them off balance.”

As well as Creston played, Winterset showed why it will be a threat come tournament time.

“They just have really good pitching,” McCabe said. “If you’re going to beat them, it’s going to have to be a low-scoring game.”

Creston concludes the regular season 21-11.

The Panthers open Class 4A Region 8 play Thursday hosting Carroll. First pitch is set for 7 p.m. at Panther Field.

Carroll is 7-19 heading into Tuesday’s regular season doubleheader finale against Carlisle.

“Carroll is going to be a good challenge,” McCabe said. “We’re going to have to be ready to play. It’s not like we’re going to show them anything they haven’t seen already.”

The Tigers’ record comes in part from playing in a loaded Raccoon River Conference with ADM, Winterset and Boone.

“We’re not going to intimidate

them,” McCabe said. “They’re capable. They have good talent. It reminds me of a Carroll team that came in here two, three years ago.

We’re going to have to be ready to play.”

Junior varsity The Panthes JV capped their season with a 9-3 record by sustaining a 13-1 loss at the hands of Winterset on Friday.

Taylor Buxton and Sara Keeler pitched for the Panthers.

Brielle Baker went 2-for-2 Morghan Frey went 1-for-2 and keeler had the lone run for the Panthers in a 1-for-2 performance.

Panther baseball edges Cardinals Creston comes through at right times in Friday win

n

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

Creston’s Chase Shiltz made a big play at the dish in fifth inning of Friday afternoon’s matinee against Treynor.

He made a few more in the final two innings on the mound as the Panthers escaped with a 3-2 non-conference win over the Class 2A fourth-ranked Cardinals.

Shiltz had to work out of jams in both the sixth and seventh.

“I would say I scared myself a litle bit,” he said. “You have to come out and trust your defense.”

Shiltz drove in the winning run in the fifth, scoring Cody Crawford on a double to right.

Crawford started the inning with a walk, then moved up a base on Jaden Driskell’s sacrifice bunt.

Shiltz took the offering into right field for what proved to be the game-winning hit.

“I saw a curveball the first

pitch for a strike,” Shiltz said. “I saw it again and poked it.”

With Shiltz up, Creston coach Steve Birchard knew the Panthers were in good hands.

“I felt that one,” Birchard said. “Jaden’s a good bunter.

I knew he would get it down, keep us out of a double play, give Chase a shot for an RBI.” Shiltz came on in the bottom of the sixth in relief of Driskell. Shiltz worked out of a jam there.

Shiltz found himself in more trouble in the seventh.

The Cardinals put runners at first and second with two outs.

Prior to a full count pitch, Shiltz picked off the Cardinals’ runner from second to end the game.

“Our defense was playing good enough,” Shiltz said. “I knew I had to keep throwing strikes.”

Shiltz survived with the Panthers still holding the lead, and eventually hanging on for the win.

“Chase gave us a chance to get out of that half inning and the game,” Birchard said.

Driskell pitched a solid outing, going five and twothirds innings allowing five BB | 10A

Young coach, young players crucial part of Murray success

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

MURRAY—“It takes one.”

A simple approach that applies to plenty of situations in softball.

That is what junior catcher Brandi Gilbert claims is one of her favorite short pieces of advice that Murray Lady Mustangs assistant coach Tessa Otto offers.

For the fourth consecutive season Murray softball finds itself having accumulated at least 20 wins. The varsity program has done this with two coaches having been on the job for years now.

Success is never a matter of just talent or coaching alone, though Murray certainly has both. Perhaps most impressively, the Lady Mustangs are enjoying success this year with a large cast of freshman talent, who are draw much of their competitiveness and camaraderie from Otto.

The fifth-year head coach has split her time as the junior high head coach and as an assistant with the junior varsity and varsity. Otto is a Murray graduate and former Southwestern Community College athlete herself and has been connected to Murray softball for much of her life.

Almost immediately after finishing softball her senior year of high school, she picked up a coaches’ license. Since starting college ball at SWCC and Graceland University (two years and one year respectively) she has coached the entire time, five years in all.

Otto has picked up knowledge and skills along the way under the tutelage of her high school coach, Danny Jensen.

Jensen is the well-respected leg-

end from the area who has served as the head softball coach at Murray for the last 36 years, principal at the high school for 14 and a number of different coaching jobs for the school district.

While many observers might be quick to credit Jensen with Murray’s success, he is just as quick to defer to his girls and coach Otto.

“She has a lot of great ideas about hitting, in particular she’s really good

with hitting techniques,” Jensen said.

“She relates well to the girls and she knows our program. She knows what to expect and she knows how to win.”

The first junior high class that Otto worked with through junior high is the current junior class. Gilbert glows in her praise of her coach.

“She’s just a really good coach for me. She doesn’t like yell a lot, she likes to teach and she helped with my batting a lot.” Gilbert said. “I was an okay batter, I had a lot of power but I didn’t know how to use it at that time. She helped me to…swing better.”

Gilbert, who’s bat is certainly of great importance to the Mustangs, plays a vital role as a catcher on the opposite end of the team’s two star freshmen pitchers. Kayla Wookey has a 1.04 earned run average, 12 wins, and has struck out 157 batters in 87 and one third innings. Breianna Klein leads the Lady Mustangs in batting average (.500), home runs (5), RBIs (41), and doubles (19).

The two have combined to pitch all of Murray’s games over the last two years.

Both claim to have learned a great deal from Otto.

“I believe the reason I’m so competitive is because of coach,” Klein said.

“That first year it was so much fun playing for her. She’s just an awesome coach,” Wookey said. “She called my pitches and she has helped me through my pitching as I got older and got up to high school.”

As much as the softball team is willing to talk about their love for coach Otto, she is quick to acknowledge the greatness in the athletes she coaches.

Good start not enough for East Union baseball

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

TRURO—East Union’s baseball team started out well in Friday’s Pride of Iowa Conference baseball game at Interstate 35.

Any good momentum the Eagles had didn’t last very long as the Roadrunners went on to a 16-1, four-inning win.

SB: CONT. FROM | 9A

“The talent level is very high for these guys. It’s incredible what they’re doing as freshmen really,” Otto said. “I’ve tried to get them better since they were seventh graders, some of them played with me as sixth graders so, I’ve had them for three years in junior high which helped a lot too.”

As junior high coach, Otto has had the chance to help groom the young Lady Mustangs. Otto expects a lot, as she knows the standard of excellence that Murray demands of its program. The junior high squad typically will play around 30 games in the summer and will practice nearly every day.

Otto claims that the transition from competing at a collegiate level was a hard part of coming to coach junior high, but it has proved fruitful for her and the program as a whole.

“My biggest thing was coming from playing college softball my first year to

East Union jumped on Interstate 35 with a run in the top of the first.

“We had a good start,” said East Union coach Dave Campbell. “It was nice to get a run, get kids on base. It got us off to a good start.”

Interstate 35 dominated from there.

The Roadrunners scored six in the first, three in the third and seven in the fourth.

The Eagles defense struggled to close out innings, with errors keeping

coaching junior high kids.

That was my biggest struggle was going from this level of competition here (holds hand up at head level and then brings it down), but I think that was good for them because I did hold them to a higher standard even though they were junior high kids,” Otto said.

Coach Jensen appreciates just how much Otto drives home the fundamentals in that environment, a key part of why there isn’t much of an adjustment period for girls making their way to the varsity program.

This bond formed by being their junior high coach extends to the varsity level, where she can be more personable during in-game situations than coach Jensen.

“In tight games, coach (Otto) comes out there and she tells you what you need to do. Jensen gets caught up a lot in the game and doesn’t really talk to us every inning,” Wookey said. “But coach (Otto) is always there to talk to us and she’s here when we bat, and she’s telling us what we need to do and how we need to do it.”

innings alive for the Roadrunners.

Interstate 35 took advantage.

“It was a rough night defensively,” Campbell said.

East Union has a couple opportunities to right the ship before postseason play starts Saturday. The Eagles are at Stanton tonight (Tuesday) and host CAM Wednesday.

“We’ll go back to the drawing board,” Campbell said. “We’ll put this one behind us and move on.”

Freshman outfielder Hailey Chew is another freshman who has quickly stepped into an important role at the top of the lineup after not playing much her eighth grade year.

“Coach Otto helped me really to enjoy softball more.

When I first started in my junior high years, I was still a little unsure about being at an upper level and playing and she helped me through being nervous and taught me how to slap,” Chew said.

Whether its personal or “professional,” Otto provides a positive environment for her girls, which contributes to their success.

“She just always makes it fun. Other coaches will yell and make you feel bad but coach just kind of lifts you up. And you’ll know when she’s having a good or a bad day. And you know which day to mess with her, so you gotta watch that,” freshman Kendra Boles said.

Talk to anyone on the Lady Mustangs squad and they have something to say about how they’ve been helped by coach Otto. Gilbert may have summed it

Eagles test themselves against powerful foe

By RYAN KRONBERG, go after every ball like they CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

TRURO — East Union’s softball team took Friday’s matchup against Class 2A fifth-ranked Interstate 35 as an opportunity to measure itself before the postseason.

While the Roadrunners handily won 13-0 in three innings, there were good things Eagles coach Jason Riley could take away.

Both of his pitchers were able to get some work in.

The Eagle defense played a relatively clean contest.

“We wanted to play strong defense,” Riley said. “We were able to make some plays.”

The outfielders were particularly noticeable with their efforts, especially Kacie Ripperger.

“I told the outfield number one no matter what to

were going to get it,” Riley said. “Kacie Ripperger dove for a ball. She hasn’t done that all year. I wanted to test our range.”

Roadrunners pitcher Carlyn Stanley threw a perfect game. She struck out eight of the nine batters she faced.

With the win, Interstate 35 earned a share of the Pride of Iowa Conference title along with Martensdale-St. Mary’s.

The Roadrunners left little doubt in Riley’s mind who the best team is.

“That’s the team in our conference,” Riley said.

East Union concludes the regular season 4-18. The Eagles open Class 1A Region 6 play against Mormon Trail tonight.

First pitch is set for 7 p.m. in Afton.

“It was a nice ball game for Jaden,” Birchard said. “After the first inning, he looked like he got his control. He settled down.”

Treynor started the scoring with run in the top of the first. The Cardinals could’ve done more, loading the bases with one out, but Driskell recorded consecutive strikeouts to end the threat.

Creston countered with a run in the bottom of the inning. Crawford and Driskell reached on consecutive oneout walks. Crawford came around on a Kadon Hulett base hit.

The score remained deadlocked until the bottom of the third. Michael Scherer singled to start the inning.

He stole second and took third on a passed ball.

Driskell’s ground ball on the infield was mishandled, allowing Scherer to score.

Adams County Speedway

RACING Update

Brad Keselowski finally earns 1st Daytona victory DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Brad Keselowski had his confidence shaken at Daytona International Speedway more than once.

He was a good plate racer, but never could find his way to victory lane at NASCAR’s most famous track.

That changed Saturday night with a dominating performance that gave Team Penske its 100th career Sprint Cup Series victory — a win that Roger Penske celebrated in victory lane by participating in the traditional champagne spray.

More important, it gave Keselowski his long-awaited first win at Daytona.

Keselowski led a race-high 115 laps then held off Kyle Busch on a two-lap shootout that sent the race into overtime for Keselowski one additional lap. It gave him his fifth career Cup win in a restrictor-plate race, but all the others had come at Talladega.

He won on the Alabama track most recently in May. “I don’t care if it’s not the

500. It’s Daytona. This is huge,” he said. “I love this place.”

He loved it even when he came up frustratingly short, or not even close at all.

Keselowski said his futility at Daytona was “a kick in the you-know-what,” but he and his No. 2 Ford crew kept chipping away at it even after he had a disappointing run in the season-opening Daytona 500.

“I got down on myself here,” he said. “We came down here for the 500 and quite honestly we ran like dog crap, but my team worked on it. I didn’t give up on them. I believe in my team and my team believes in me and we went to work and we put together a better car, and it really showed with a great effort from the whole team. I’m really proud of everybody.”

Penske said he was “proud to be an American” after winning on Fourth of July weekend.

“To win 100 races with the competition we have in this sport is amazing,” said Penske.

“Sixteen years ago we won our 100th race on the IndyCar side, it took us some time to catch up over here. Pretty important night for us.”

The race was marred by a 22-car accident that collected

more than half the field and thinned the competition for Keselowski. It really only left Kyle Busch as a legitimate contender, but a restart for a two-lap shootout that sent it into overtime forced Keselowski to earn the win.

He easily held off Busch, and challenger Kurt Busch was eliminated when he was knocked out of line by Joey Logano as they headed to the checkered flag.

“I don’t remember a whole lot. It gets kind of crazy,” said Kyle Busch, who crashed his primary car Friday morning and raced in a backup.

“You just tried to play it as safe as you could but as smart as you could, and being as aggressive as you could without trying to tear up any cars. If we could have got the 2 car out of there, it probably would have been a decent race, but that thing was just so strong that there wasn’t much passing him.

“Really it took a lot of guys ganging up and getting together in order to make a move on him. He was pretty smart about where he positioned his car on the racetrack, and I could see that, and I tried to do some of those same things, but man, it just never really worked for me as good as he

___ STEWART’S GAIN: With 11 laps remaining and Stewart running fifth, his chance at a second consecutive victory blew up when he got loose and started a crash. Casey Mears ran into the back of him and Stewart’s car turned into traffic then back into the wall.

“I got loose into one there, I just overcorrected there and drove it in the fence. My fault,” Stewart said.

Stewart wound up 26th — but it was enough to get him to 30th in the standings. He’s got to be inside the top-30 to qualify for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“We knew we might be able to get points here, for us, it was more trying to take care of ourselves,” he said. “I probably should have been smart and just sat back a little bit. But we were in position to get a top-five and had to take a chance.” ___ UP NEXT: A Saturday night race at Kentucky Speedway, which was won last year

by Kyle Busch as he charged into contention for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. It’s one of only two active tracks on the Sprint Cup schedule where Tony Stewart has never won.

defending race winner, but never contended Saturday night and finished 21st. He was involved in the 22-car accident — his third consecutive crash in a plate race — but was able to continue to the finish this time.

“Miserable night,” Earnhardt tweeted. “Had some gremlins in the steering.”

OTHER NOTABLES FROM DAYTONA: ___ BUSCH’S BAD FINISH: Kurt Busch was briefly charging toward Keselowski on the final shootout, couldn’t pull off a pass, then found himself turned into the grass when Logano hit him. It took him from a possible top-five finish to 23rd, and he called Logano’s move “an aggressive mistake.”

“I don’t know where Logano wanted to go. He was going to go from fifth to first?” Busch said. “There’s not a chance that he had enough to win it.

We positioned ourselves to be the car to get a run off the bottom. And it just didn’t work out with him trying to drive straight through us.”

Busch’s crew chief had much stronger words for Logano.

“Stupid is as stupid does!!!” tweeted Tony Gibson.

could handle it.”

Trevor Bayne finished third and was followed by Keselowski teammate Logano and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. as Ford drivers took four of the top five spots.

Keselowski credited a push from his teammate for helping him shake the Busch brothers on the final restart.

“I was able to get Brad a good push to clear and get a Penske car to victory lane, which is really cool,” Logano said. “The 2 was the fastest car and he deserved to win the race.”

It was a plan to work together and disrupt the Toyota contingent that used teamwork to dominate the Daytona 500. Instead, Kyle Busch was the only Toyota driver to finish inside the top 10.

Kyle Larson was sixth and the highest finishing Chevrolet. He was followed by Austin Dillon, who ended last year’s race in an airborne accident, then pole-sitter Greg Biffle and Clint Bowyer.

Michael McDowell was 10th.

Tony Stewart, seeking his fifth victory in his final race at Daytona, was in contention until a late accident. He finished 26th.
