A group of divers led by JGP Dive Adventures LLC owner and scuba instructor Grant Plowman enter the water in early August at Mermet Springs near Metropolis, Illinois. Mermet Springs is one of the most popular dive facilities in the Midwest, and famously features the submerged body of the Boeing 727 airplane destroyed in the 1998 action movie “U.S. Marshalls.” Local scuba instructor Grant Plowman uses the facilities to NAUI open-water certify beginner scuba divers.

Scuba diving allows participants to explore the depths of the earth in an unparelleled way.

And, the basics of the scuba diving can be learned right here in Iowa.

JGP Dive Adventures LLC, of Creston, offers private and group scuba instruction to students ages 10 and over right here in the local area.

Grant Plowman, JGP Dive Adventures LLC owner and National Asso-

ciation of Underwater Instructors (NAUI)-certified scuba instructor, has been around diving since his early childhood.

“It started back in the ‘70s,” said Plowman, “when my dad used to dive for Union County as a rescue diver. And I always thought it’d be cool. Back then, you had to be 18 years old to do it so I was too young, but I had a close friend and we got certified to be skin divers through a YMCA camp back in Okoboji.

“So we hung with it for a while,” said Plowman, “and then we got older and then, you know, things happen and all of a sudden in 2004 there was a scuba diving class in Creston. So I took it and started helping out my instructor. I kind of worked my way up through the chain, and eventually spent five years student-teach-

ing before becoming an instructor and doing the instruction end of my business.”

JGP Dive Adventures LLC was started in 2008 as a travel planning agency.

After receiving his NAUI scuba instruction certification, Plowman decided to add full service dive training to his business’ offerings.

The student’s experience Beginner scuba divers can expect a flexible lesson plan to meet the student’s needs.

A combination of studying from a textbook, enclosed water (swimming pool) training time, a final test and opportunity to earn an open-waters diving certification are included in the first-time diver’s instruction.

“A student gets a better understanding of problem solving,” said Plowman.

“You grow up being able to problem solve on land without a problem. But now you’re doing it in an environment that’s unnatural to us — which is underwater.

“And I’ve worked with kids,” said Plowman, “where they come in and they hated each other as the worst of enemies. And you pair them up, and by the end of their training they’re the best of friends. Because they’ve had this sense of camaraderie, and they’ve had to rely on each other. So you develop a brotherhood. I may not dive with you all the time, but we’re a big family. It’s just something you experience.”

Shaw Media, owner of the Creston News Advertiser, has purchased the Adair County Free Press and Fontanelle Observer from Carroll-based Herald Publishing, both parties announced today. The sale will be effective immediately.

Prior to Herald Publishing owning the Adair County Free Press, the Sidey family had a long-storied tradition of covering Adair County.

The Creston News Advertiser printed the Adair County Free Press and Fontanelle Observer for many years at its print plant. The CNA has also continued to cover the area in news and sports for several years, and now will do it locally.

CNA Publisher Rich Paulsen will also serve as publisher of the Adair

County Free Press and Fontanelle Observer.

“We are looking forward to serving the Greenfield and Fontanelle communities,” Paulsen said. “It will be a pleasure to work with the folks in Adair County.

We look to continue the outstanding tradition of journal- Paulsen ism in the newspaper.”

“Geographically, and based on current trade and shopping and economic patterns, it is clear Creston is the commercial center for this region, so it makes sense SHAW | 2A

Powerball jackpot expected to be $430 million on Wednesday DES MOINES (AP) — The Powerball jackpot will continue to grow above $400 million this week because no one matched all the numbers in Saturday’s drawing.

Lottery officials estimate that the jackpot for the next Powerball drawing on Wednesday will be $430 million.

The Powerball prize will be the only big lottery jackpot this week because someone who bought a ticket in Palos Heights, Illinois, won Saturday’s $393 million Mega Millions jackpot.

But remember that the odds of winning Powerball remain long at one in 292.2 million.

Arlene Gwendolyn (Robinson) Grimm, daughter of Mark and Lulu Robinson, was born Dec. 12, 1920, near Conway.

Arlene graduated in 1938 from Conway High School.

On Aug. 6, 1941, she married Wyatt Grimm in Maryville, Missouri. They lived two years in Columbus, Georgia. In 1943, they moved to Lenox, where they lived for 58 years.

Wyatt and Arlene were blessed with one daughter, Suzanne. While living in Lenox, Arlene was employed at United Food Market and at First National Bank for 31 years.

Arlene was a member of First Christian Church and active member of CWF. Arlene loved to travel, seeing 49 states and spending seven winters in St. Petersburg, Florida.

She enjoyed watching college sports and the Chica-

go Cubs. She dearly loved her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, playing cards and board games with them and attending their athletic events. Some of her fondest memories were spending time with her four sisters and their families.

Left to cherish her memory, are daughter Suzanne (Gary) Christensen of Winterset; four grandchildren, Jennifer (Mike) Anthony, Cory (Kindra) Christensen, Lacey (Jeff) Forsyth and Brooke (Matt) Johnson and 11 great-grandchildren, Everlee, Emerson and Estelle Anthony, Ty, Gage and Alyvia Christensen, Kade, Kael, Haelynn and Hudsyn Forsyth and Kennedy Johnson; her two sisters, Norma Cobb and Marjorie Sanders and many nieces, nephews and friends.

William married Dorothy Richards and to this union three children were born, Stephen Douglas, Martin Ray and Rebecca Ann. They later divorced. He was drafted into the U.S. Army, serving from 1955 to 1957 in Korea. After his discharge, he continued to farm and went on to be a fireman for the railroad in Creston.

In March 1973, he married Karen Evon (Negethon) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the Community Methodist

Troy Schroeder and divemaster Troy Vandekreeke. The trio has been training and certifying students for five years. “I’ve hand-picked who I teach with,� said Plowman, “because I’m very protective of my students. I don’t want any accidents, I don’t want anything to happen. We do a small class to ensure a more one-on-one with people. I’ll do one person, and I’ll do up to four in a class. I will not do 10. It gives more instruction on what’s going on. And if there’s four people, two of us (instructors) will be in the water during the confined pool time just in case somebody slips or maybe is having problems with a skill.�

Why Scuba?

Scuba is an underwater diving sport, requiring the use of a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA). Divers wear or carry their own supply of air, and swim in underwater environments in a variety of recreational or professional settings.

Vandekreeke began scuba diving 10 years ago during a trip to the Australian Great Barrier Reef. After getting certified, Vandekreeke went on to receive specialized rescue training as part of his divemaster certification. “I think it’s a new experience,� said Vandekreeke. “It’s a challenge for a lot of people. It’s something most people have never done anything like before, and it can be exciting. It’s relaxing — and it’s always a new experience.�

Plowman has been diving since 2005. He has dove coral reefs in the Caribbean, Mexico and WWII shipwrecks off

Plowman regularly makes diving trips to Mermet Springs, a submerged quarry in southern Illinois established as “not your typical dive site.�

The 8.5-acre spring-fed quarry provides for dives from 15 to 120 feet in depth, and features a plethora of sunken vehicles, treasures and even jet airplanes for visitors to explore.

Mermet Springs owner Glen Faith has been operating for 21 years. “Our goal was to raise the bar, and set the standard for what diving could be in the Midwest,� said Faith. “I think diving draws and attracts a

certain type of person, and challenges them and takes them to a whole other level.�

Mermet Springs is one of the most popular dive facilities in the Midwest, and famously features the submerged body of the Boeing 727 airplane destroyed in the 1998 action movie “U.S. Marshalls.�

Divers enjoy numerous amenities, including covered gear pavilions with electricity and fans, hot showers, flush toilets, camping facilities, staff instructors, a full-service dive shop and scuba gear repair facilities and experts.

Plowman conducts open-water scuba certifications at Mermet Springs, and recently completed such a trip in early August. Plowman describes diving at Mermet and other locations as borderline surreal. “Even the stuff here at Mermet Springs,� said Plowman. “How often are you going to see a fish, right up in your face, in its natural environment?�

But the most important aspect of diving for Plowman? “It’s that kinship and bond for a sport that you love. So that’s what people get out of it, on top of being able to see stuff that you’re never going to see in everyday life. How many people from Iowa get to go see stuff to that nature?

That’s why I got my kids involved. “When I was a kid, said Plowman, “you’d see that stuff on TV and think, ‘Oh, that’s so neat.’ But now, here I am actually being one-onone with marine life, and it’s phenomenal.�

Those interested in learning more about diving may contact Plowman and JGP Dive Adventures LLC by phone at 641-344-0217, or email at scubediver@live.com.

The Shaw family is widely respected in newspaper circles, as is the Sidey family, whose heritage always will be a part of newspapering in Adair County.

We look forward to being good neighbors with Shaw as we continue to operate our newspapers in Guthrie, Greene and Carroll counties. We have made many good friends here in Adair County. The reality for us, though, is that with recent substantial economic growth in Carroll, our

hometown, we have decided to dedicate more time and resources to coverage and support of our burgeoning area of west-central Iowa.�

Shaw Media is the third-oldest continuously owned and operated newspaper company in the nation. In addition to the Creston News Advertiser and Osceola Sentinel-Tribune, it operates newspaper properties in Newton, Iowa, suburban Chicago and northern Illinois.

the cost of North Carolina, as well as several fresh water locations throughout the Midwest. “I try not to get people to push to do it,� said Plowman. “I’d prefer, ‘Let’s try it first.’ We’ll throw you in the gear and try it before doing a fullblown class. Scuba’s you either like it or you don’t. You don’t force people to do it.

You got to make that commitment yourself; that this is something where you want to explore the most unexplored part of our planet.�

HINTS FROM HELOISE A ‘Ms.’-stake?

HOROSCOPE For Tuesday, Aug. 15, 2017 ARIES (March 21 to April 19)Issues with family members will be intense today. This might be because you insist on getting your way about redecorating, or perhaps you are adamant about a possible real estate deal. Stay chill.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)You might be so fixated on something today that you can think of nothing else.

Unfortunately, one’s mind has to be open to let new things in, doesn’t it? Think about that!

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)You have strong opinions today when it comes to financial matters. You also might be obsessed about buying something. Easy does it.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)Today it’s easy to be addicted to something or to feel obsessed about an idea or a desire. Be aware of this, and try to find the middle ground in things. Either extreme is not ideal.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You are very strong now, with both the Sun and Mars in your sign. Today, however, something going on behind the scenes definitely has your attention.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) A friend could become a lover today. Something will happen that makes you focus with great intensity on a friend or a member of a group!

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You have to respond to someone who wants your creative advice about something.

Someone in authority will realize that you mean what you say.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Avoid extreme views about politics, religion and racial issues today, because it’s easy to fall into this way of thinking. There are many ways to describe the truth of something.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might be rigid in your thinking about shared property, inheritances and dealing with others today.

One thing is certain - you are not alone. Many people feel obsessed about something today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Go gently with partners and close friends today, because people feel obsessed about issues. Naturally, this clouds everyone’s judgment. Easy does it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)You have excellent ideas about how to introduce reforms or improvements at

work today. Likewise, you might see how to improve your own health as well.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Love at first sight might take place today (even you are surprised by your attraction). Try to keep things in perspective and not go off the deep end.

YOU BORN TODAY You are warmhearted, kind, generous and spontaneous. This more-personal year focuses on family, loved ones and close

friends. You will experience success and financial accumulation in the next three years.

That’s why it is wise to settle your debts this year. This also is a social year that deals with the results of last year’s changes.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Readers: Today’s SOUND OFF is about the use of “Ms.” in place of “Miss” or “Mrs.”: “Dear Heloise: One thing that irks me is that so many pieces of mail are addressed to ‘Ms.’ instead of ‘Mrs.’ They don’t know me. I could be ‘Miss,’ ‘Mrs.’ or ‘Mr.,’ but not ‘Ms.’ When they came out with ‘Ms.,’ it was for divorced women, and I have never been divorced! It may seem trivial to some, but I don’t like it.” – Shirley W., Gardiner, Maine Shirley, the title of “Ms.” is out of respect and politeness. The titles “Mrs.,” “Miss” and even “Ms.” were all derived from the word “Mistress,” which for centuries applied to all adult women, whether married or not. Until the 19th century, most women lacked a prefix before their names; they were often addressed as “soand-so’s wife,” or simply by their name. Having a title of “Ms.,” “Miss” or “Mrs.” eventually indicated a higher social standing. While “Ms.” is more commonly used today for women whose status is not known, it never indicated a divorced woman, but

rather all women. – Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com FAST FACTS Dear Readers: Most households have cotton swabs, so here are a few more uses for them: * Use them to clean a computer keyboard and get into those tight spaces. * Wet one end and use it to seal envelopes. * Got furniture with fancy carvings? Use one with furniture polish sprayed on the cotton to clean and shine the fancy wood. * Keep handy to wipe away smeared mascara or nail polish on the areas around the nails. – Heloise KEEPING IT CLEAN Dear Heloise: When our three daughters had their bridal showers, my mother, my sister and I bought a gift certificate to have their dresses dry-cleaned and preserved as our shower gift.

We researched and found a

reputable dry cleaner who did this kind of work.

Each daughter was delighted to receive such a lasting gift. It can be expensive to preserve a gown, so it’s nice to include several people in the gift, if need be.

– Connie F., Summerfield, Fla. Connie, that’s a very thoughtful idea, and one I’m sure other readers will appreciate as well! And the next hint has another wedding-gift idea. – Heloise IT’S IN THE BOX Dear Heloise: I have another suggestion for storing a wedding gown: Have it put in a shadow box. My cousin did mine for me, and it’s on display in my living room. I enjoy your information very much. – Sue G., Harrison, Ark. FORK IT OVER Dear Heloise: I went to an estate sale and bought five old metal forks for $1. I use them to uproot weeds such as chickweed and dandelions. It’s one of the most useful and inexpensive tools in my garden! – Tina P., Shawnee, Okla. (c)2017 by King Features Syndicate Inc.

The Numbers Game

Dryden and Redding best field at 49th Phil Tyler Best Shot

3

The number of players younger than Justin Thomas to have won the PGA Thomas Championship. The win was Thomas’ first major victory.

National Digest

Thomas picks the right major at the right time to win CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The son and grandson of golf professionals, Justin Thomas couldn’t think of a better major to win than the PGA Championship. And at age 24, he couldn’t think of a better time.

Youth is taking over the highest level of golf, and there were times Thomas felt left behind.

Rory McIlroy already had four majors when he was 25.

Closer to home was Jordan Spieth, a close friend since they were 14. Spieth won his third major at the British Open last month to give him three legs of the career Grand Slam.

“Frustration probably isn’t the right word,” Thomas said. “Jealously definitely is. I wanted to be doing that, and I wasn’t.”

Sunday at Quail Hollow was his moment.

Starting the final round two shots out of the lead, Thomas closed with a 3-under 68 for a two-shot victory to capture the final major of the year.

It required a little bit of good fortune, like when his tee shot bounced out of a tree and into the fairway on the par-5 10th hole, which ended with his 8-foot putt teetering on the edge of the cup for 12 seconds before gravity finally took over and the ball dropped for birdie.

“I didn’t even see it go in,” said Thomas, who had his back turned to the cup as he was asking caddie Jimmy Johnson how it didn’t go in. Players are allowed reasonable time to get to the ball, and then they get 10 seconds before they hit the next shot, so he was well within the limit.

He seized control on the back nine with a chip-in for birdie from 40 feet on the par-3 13th hole.

Above all, it required plenty of grit, and Thomas showed plenty of that. The key moment in his victory came along the infamous “Green Mile” at Quail Hollow, a brutal stretch of holes where players are trying to hang on with pars.

Thomas had a one-shot lead over Hideki Matsuyama when he drove into the rough, and his approach tumbled into a bunker. He did well to get that out to 6 feet.

Matsuyama was spared by the thick rough behind the green that kept his ball from going into the water, and he had a good lie that allowed him to chip to 5 feet.

Thomas wasted no time over the putt and drilled into the center of the cup. Matsuyama missed and fell two shots behind.

And then Thomas effectively ended it with a 7-iron so pure that he let the club swirl through Thomas | 6A

n Dry,

pleasant conditions mark the weekend

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports editor kacarter@crestonnews.com

Saturday and Sunday, Crestmoor Golf Club saw the 49th iteration of the annual Phil Tyler Best Shot Invitational tournament, as dry conditions and beautiful conditions on Saturday and Sunday led to low scores.

The two-day score of 115 (55 on day one and 60 on day two) by TJ Redding and Chad Dryden of Creston won the championship flight of the Invitational on Sunday to bring the twoday event to a close with a convincing victory.

A total of 42 teams took part in the festivities, with Phil Tyler running the whole event, as he has done since the origin of the event.

“This is as easy as you’re ever going to see this course,” Tyler said about the dry, but pleasant conditions.

He would know. He has now ran all 49 Best Shot events at Crest-

moor and every one but the first of 50 Best Ball events.

“You can go back a long time before we watered the fairways. I’ve seen it where on hole number five, you hit it up the hill, and it would turn around and roll back 130 yards all the way to the ditch.”

That said, he noted that this weekend’s conditions were not necessarily indicative of how it is supposed to play.

The Golf Club got its pond and current irrigiation system when Tyler was President of the club, and typically none of the course will play as quickly as it did over the weekend.

With 49 years of play and a few years removed from the last time he played, Tyler was happy to reminisce.

Tyler was appreciative of outgoing Clubhouse manager Lesha Clarke and Don Mosman, who has cooked for the event for years.

THOMAS: CONT. FROM | 5A

his hand as the ball soared over the water, onto the green and rolled out to 15 feet on the 221-yard shot to a peninsula green. His birdie putt swirled into the cup, and the rest was easy.

He finished with a bogey — his first since the third hole — when it no longer mattered. Thomas finished at 8-under 276. He won by two shots over Francesco Molinari (67), Patrick Reed (67) and Louis Oosthuizen (70), none of whom were a serious threat as they played the 18th. His real challenge was Matsuyama playing next to him, and Kevin Kisner, the 54-hole leader in the group behind him.

Kisner ran off two important birdies on the 14th and 15th holes to get within one shot, but the final stretch is no place to make up more ground. He three-putted from 100 feet on the 16th hole to fall two back, couldn’t convert from long range on the 17th and hit into the water because of mud on his ball on the 18th.

Among those waiting for Thomas alongside the 18th green were his father and Spieth.

Mike Thomas, the longtime pro at Harmony Landing outside Louisville, Kentucky, spread his arms wide as he approached his only son and wrapped them around him. He also made sure to collect an important part of history.

Ever since his son was in elementary school, he has been collecting golf balls from his victory. The total is

now 131. Asked if he made sure to get the ball Thomas used to tap in the final putt, Mike Thomas reached into his pocket, smiled and said, “You mean this one?” The PGA Championship was important to Thomas to take his place among the young elite in the game, and it was important to his family.

His grandfather, Paul Thomas, also was a club pro and has been a PGA of America member for 60 years. He was the first person Thomas called. “As a kid growing up, you want to win all the majors. You want to win any major,” Thomas said after his two-shot victory. “For me, the PGA definitely had a special place in my heart, and maybe a special drive. It’s just a great win for the family, and it’s a moment we’ll never forget — all of us.”

Spieth was there, too, wanting to celebrate with his friend. The week began with Spieth’s bid to complete the career Grand Slam, and it never got out of the gates.

Thomas, endlessly referred to as “Spieth’s close friend,” emerged from his shadow with a major of his own. “ So awesome, dude,” Spieth told him. Spieth and Thomas first became close when they played the Junior Evian Masters in 2007.

Thomas won the 36-hole event and got to play the pro-am the next day with LPGA great Juli Inkster.

Spieth caddied for him. Ten years later, they have won THE IOWA DISTRICT COURT consecutive majors and head FOR UNION COUNTY into the FedEx Cup playIN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF offs Tony battling for PGA Tour G. Catalano, Deceased No.year.

For one business leader who has been working with the White House, Trump’s lack of specificity inspired a personal protest: Merck CEO Kenneth Frazier cited the president’s reaction as the reason he’s decided to resign from the president’s manufacturing council. Trump immediately attacked Frazier by name on Twitter.

Pressure mounts on Trump to address race-fueled clash WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is facing pressure from both sides of the aisle for him to explicitly condemn white supremacists and hate groups involved in deadly, race-fueled clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Trump, who has been at his New Jersey golf club on a working vacation, is making a one-day return to Washington on Monday to sign an executive action on China’s trade practices. But he will likely be unable to escape questions and criticism for his initial response to the Saturday’s violence, for which he blamed bigotry on “many sides.�

His attorney general, Jeff Sessions, said Monday the incident in which a car plowed into a group of counter-protesters, killing one person, “does meet the definition of domestic terrorism in our statute.�

He told ABC’s “Good Morning America�: “You can be sure we will charge and advance the investigation towards the most serious charges that can be brought, because this is an unequivocally unacceptable and evil attack that cannot be accepted in America.�
