Green Valley Lake testing Creston high for microcystins man dies

Blue-green algae collects near the shore Thursday at the beach at Green Valley Lake north of Creston. The bluegreen algae, created by high levels of microcystins in the lake, is hazardous to humans and pets if contact is made with the algae. Signs are currently posted at the lake discouraging recreational use of the lake.

CNA managing editor svicker@crestonnews.com

Nearly every summer, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources sends out a series of press releases saying Green Valley Lake in Creston has tested positive for high levels of microcystins.

That has been the case again this year. Test results came back Friday indicating the lake still had high levels of microcystins.

The high levels of microcystins are the result of agricultural runoff entering the lake through tributaries or from natural nutrients in the lake. That, combined with warm, dry weather, causes the nutrients to

bloom into blue-green algae.

The blue-green algae on the lake is dangerous for humans, pets and livestock if they come into contact with it.

The most common human symptom is a rash from the direct contact with the algae. But, more severe symptoms, such as upset stomach, diarrhea and nausea, can happen.

“For some people, it could be more severe,” s a i d Amanda Husband, Union County environ- Husband

mental specialist. “I would expect to see those type of symptoms coming from the young, the old or the immune-compromised folks.”

With the dangers posed by coming into contact with the blue-green algae, both Husband and the DNR suggest people avoid swimming and other direct-contact activities at the lake.

That includes skiing and tubing. Fishing, however, is OK. “As long as you’re in your boat where you’re not having direct-water contact or you’re fishing from the side,” Husband said. “And yes, you can eat those fish.

They are safe. Just clean out the guts to them and rinse them off good.”

Husband also suggests keeping pets on a leash around the lake so they do not jump into the lake or come into contact with the dried algae near the shore.

The blue-green algae can have a deadly effect on pets.

“If that pet gets down into that water, they’re really highly susceptible to this because they can get that algae on their fur and their paws and they lick it off,” Husband said. “So, they’re getting a really high dosage of it and they can go into liver failure pretty quickly.”

Animal symptoms include lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions, difficulty breathing and general ALGAE | 12A

BOISE, IDAHO — A 70-year-old Creston man died Friday when he was thrown from a vehicle onto Interstate 84 near Mountain Home.

Larry Schad was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to the Elmore County Sheriff’s Office, the crash occurred around 2:50 p.m. when a 2002 Dodge Durango driven by Joyce Schad drifted off the right shoulder of I-84, east of Mountain Home. The report said the driver overcorrected and the Durango crossed both eastbound lanes, entering the median.

The Durango then rolled through the median and entered the westbound lanes, where it came to rest on its wheels.

Larry Schad, reportedly unrestrained in the rear seat, was ejected from the vehicle as it rolled and died at the scene.

Joyce Schad, 70, was transported by air ambulance to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise with serious injuries. Another passenger, 52-year-old Burton Wright of Idaho, was also transported with serious inju-

ized.

The driver of a semitruck also involved in the wreck was treated and released at the scene.

Authorities said the investigation is ongoing.

Larry Schad was born Oct. 16, 1946, in Bridgewater. He was a 1965 graduate of East Union High School. He served in the U.S. Navy, sailing on the USS Independence aircraft carrier.

Schad was retired from a 30-year career with Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, including a position as track foreman.

He was also a member of the Southwest Iowa Amateur Radio Association, and attended many HAM radio events throughout the Midwest. He was part of the association’s annual participation in nationwide emergency radio field exercises under simulated emergency conditions.

Funeral arrangements are pending at Watson-Armstrong Funeral Home in Mount Ayr. Messages to Joyce Schad can be sent to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center, 1055 N. Curtis Road, Boise, Idaho 83706; or online at http://bit. ly/2wZUiTS.

Lag in Trump’s condemnation frustrates Iowa GOP Sen. Ernst FORT DODGE (AP) — Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst expressed frustration Monday that it took President Donald Trump two days to specifically condemn white supremacy after deadly violence at a rally in Virginia.

“Finally!” the Iowa Republican told reporters, referencing Trump’s condemnation of white nationalist groups — including the Ku Ernst

Klux Klan — two days after a woman protesting the groups was killed in Charlottesville.

Speaking to about 100 people at a middle school in northwest Iowa, Ernst called Trump’s latest statement “strong” but added, “I wish he would have been right out of the game with that.”

The freshman Republican, a rising national figure in the party, said Trump has been quick to voice his opinions on Twitter but shouldn’t have taken so long

Ernst followed fellow Republican senators, including Colorado’s Cory Gardner, who implored Trump for a direct denunciation of white supremacist groups Sunday.

But Ernst’s political course is trickier than Gardner’s because she represents a state Trump carried last year by a healthy margin.

However, the Des Moines Register’s July Iowa Poll showed a majority of Iowans disapproving of the president’s performance, due mostly to a spike in dissatisfaction from independent voters.

Ernst has been a loyal supporter of most of Trump’s agenda, though she was quick to point out times when she has disagreed with the president.

This month, she opposed Trump’s decision to bar transgender Americans from serving in the military.

As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, she also has urged Trump to take a tougher stance on Russia’s military and cyber

interference in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Still, she supported the president’s withdrawal from the Paris climate accord in June, and has said she wants the Senate to continue to pursue repeal of the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Trump had expressed that desire too, despite Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s decision to move on after the GOP-controlled Senate failed to advance such legislation last month.

“It is imperative we not simply walk away from our effort to repeal and replace ObamaCare,” Ernst wrote to McConnell this month, echoing Trump’s public pronouncements toward the Kentucky Republican.

And yet, Ernst told the audience the fate of the United States rests with the success of the president, like him or not.

“I may not support everything that Donald Trump says, but he is my president and he is your president,” she said.

Both Korean leaders, US signal turn to diplomacy amid crisis SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea’s military on Tuesday presented leader Kim Jong Un with plans to launch missiles into waters near Guam and “wring the windpipes of the Yankees,” even as both Koreas and the United States signaled their willingness to avert a deepening crisis, with each suggesting a path toward negotiations.

The tentative interest in diplomacy follows unusually combative threats between President Donald Trump and North Korea amid worries that Pyongyang is nearing its longsought goal of accurately being able to send a nuclear missile to the U.S. mainland. Next week’s start of U.S.-South Korean military exercises that enrage the North each year makes it unclear, however, if diplomacy will prevail.

During an inspection of the North Korean army’s Strategic Forces, which handles the missile program, Kim praised the military for drawing up a “close and careful plan” and said he would watch the “foolish and stupid conduct of the Yankees” a little more before deciding whether to order the missile test, the North’s state-run Korean Central News Agency said.

Kim appeared in photos sitting at a table with a large map marked by a straight line between what appeared to be northeastern North Korea and Guam, and passing over Japan — apparently showing the missiles’ flight route.

The missile plans were previously announced. Kim said North Korea would conduct the launches if the “Yankees persist in their extremely dangerous reckless actions on the Korean Peninsula and its vicinity,” and that the United States should “think reasonably and judge properly” to avoid shaming itself, the news agency said.

Lobbing missiles toward Guam, a major U.S. military hub in the Pacific, would be a deeply provocative act from the U.S. perspective, and a miscalculation on either side could lead to a military clash. U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis said the United States would take out any such missile seen to be heading for American soil and declared any such North Korean attack could mean war.

Kim’s comments, however, with their conditional tone, seemed to hold out the possibility that friction could ease if the United States made some sort of gesture that Pyongyang considered a move to back away from previous “extremely dangerous reckless actions.”

That could refer to the U.S.-South Korean military drills set to begin Monday, which the North claims are rehearsals for invasion. It also could refer to the B-1B bombers that the U.S. has occasionally flown over the Korean Peninsula as a show of force.

South Korean President Moon Jae-in, meanwhile, a liberal who favors engagement with the North, urged North Korea to stop provocations and to commit to talks over its nuclear weapons program.

Moon, in a televised speech Tuesday on the anniversary of the end of World War II and the Korean Peninsula’s liberation from Japanese colonial rule, said that Seoul and Washington agree that the crisis over the North’s nuclear program should “absolutely be solved peacefully,” and that no U.S. military action on the Korean Peninsula could be taken without Seoul’s

consent.

Moon said the North could create conditions for talks by stopping nuclear and missile tests.

“Our government will put everything on the line to prevent another war on the Korean Peninsula,” Moon said. “Regardless of whatever twist and turns we could experience, the North Korean nuclear program should absolutely be solved peacefully, and the (South Korean) government and the U.S. government don’t have a different position on this.”

The chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford, on Monday met with senior South Korean military and political officials and the local media, and made comments that appeared to be an attempt to ease anxiety while also showing a willingness to back Trump’s warnings if need be.

Dunford said the United States wants to peacefully resolve tensions with North Korea, but Washington is also ready to use the “full range” of its military capabilities in case of provocation.

Dunford is visiting South Korea, Japan and China after a week in which Trump declared the U.S. military “locked and loaded” and said he was ready to unleash “fire and fury” if North Korea continued to threaten the United States.

North Korea’s military had said last week it would finalize and send to Kim for approval the plan to fire four ballistic missiles near Guam, which is about 3,200 kilometers (2,000 miles) KOREA | 12A

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, August 15, 2017

Stepping outside your comfort zone A miscellany of sense and nonsense Alex Felker staff writer

afelker@crestonnews.com @Felkums

Author and poet T. S. Elliot once famously said, “If you aren’t in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?”

I had the opportunity two weekends back to go scuba diving — after a few weekends of training classes — and there were certainly a few moments where a thought very much like Elliot’s ran across my mind.

Forty feet underwater can feel like a lonely place. I was diving in Mermet Springs, a submerged quarry in southern Illinois, and though I had plenty of friends around me, the water was dark, cold at times and certainly felt unnatural and alien.

I’ve never been much of a swimmer. Growing up, I’d had difficulty in the swim lessons my friends had breezed through. I never could seem to get the knack for it.

But even so, I enjoyed being in the water, and jumped at the opportunity to become scuba certified when I was given the chance.

Grant Plowman, a local scuba instructor and owner of JGP Dive Adventures LLC had offered to take one of us unsuspecting newspaper-folk out for a diving trip, and I had gladly accepted.

It was an experience. Diving is an entirely unique sensation.

You’re weightless of course, but only underwater. Out of water,

you realize the weight and (perceived) fragility of your gear. The regulator, the air tank, the tubes and caps and screws — each one is as important as the last in preserving your life underwater. And one can’t help but feel that each piece might fly off as one dives into the water.

I was nervous before the first dive, nervous before the second, nervous before the third and just generally nervous. But interestingly enough, while underwater, I felt at peace and relaxed. The sensation of floating and sinking, sinking and floating and smoothly propelling yourself from point to point is enjoyable and calming.

You can’t speak underwater.

This seems obvious at first, but becomes uniquely apparent when there’s something you’d like to communicate to a dive-buddy, and quickly realize you can’t. At times, it feels like the whole world is just you and your regulator. At other times, the natural beauty and curiosity for the underwater world around you fills up your thoughts with wonder.

Though a long drive, I was happy to have been diving at Mermet Springs for a dive site. The quarry is beautiful; ringed by a forest, the water is clearer than most anything else you’d find in the Midwest, and features a variety of

Contributed photo

Staff writer Alex Felker flashes a thumbs-up sign about 15 feet underwater at dive-site Mermet Springs near Metropolis, Ill. 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. Marshals.”

unique wildlife and sunk curiosities to explore.

I can see that diving is not necessarily for everybody. While in reality a very safe sport when comparisons are made, it is difficult to stop oneself from unnecessarily worrying. And I did my fair share of unnecessary worrying over that weekend.

But I also challenged myself,

and put myself in what would have normally been an uncomfortable situation. And I think that’s one of the most important things a person needs to do to grow — to “get in over their head.”

Physically (and mentally) I was in over my head. But I came out of the experience feeling I had accomplished something meaningful (and as a NAUI-certified diver to

boot). I wholeheartedly plan to scuba dive again in my lifetime, and this piece of my life will only exist because I had a willingness to step outside my comfort zone.

I want to thank Grant Plowman for giving me the opportunity, and I want to thank my wonderful girlfriend Ellie for coming along on the trip and laughing (inwardly) at my clumsiness.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

We’ve got a lot going for us in Creston From Sandy Stalker Creston

An extraordinary thing happened one day last week. While sitting in my favorite chair one morning, in the front window of my house on Townline St., I chanced to look up and noticed a lot of traffic lined up. There were tree limbs lying in the road in the

way of traffic. Three young men jumped out of their vehicle and removed the limbs to the side of the road, got back into their vehicle and out of the way of all the backed up traffic.

“How nice,” I thought.

Somebody had lost their load on the way to the compost site and these boys have removed the traffic blockage. I had hardly gotten

back to my whatever I was doing, when they were back. The limbs were re-loaded, right down to the little sticks, the area cleaned up and they were on their way.

That speaks highly of our citizenry, be they young, old or somewhere in between.

We’ve got a lot going for us in Creston, and that little incident just proves it.

federal court to show to her support for Swift’s stand. Alli, a musician, said women often are harassed in her male-dominated field, then face a backlash for complaining about it. “I just want to see how this plays out for the sake of women anywhere,� she said.

Swift has a somewhat complicated history with feminism. She is known for her “squad,� a group of famous girlfriends that includes Lena Dunham and Selena Gomez, showing off her female friendships in the entertainment industry. And she has posted music from rising female singers on her social media pages, giving them extra exposure.

But Swift also has had a high-profile dispute with fellow female performer Katy Perry. And Swift was criticized by some when she tweeted about the Women’s March hours before it began in January because she did not personally attend, despite other celebrities showing up.

Swift was supportive of fellow singer Kesha, who is at war with her former mentor and producer, Dr. Luke. Kesha claims Dr. Luke drugged, sexually abused and psychologically tormented her. He denies the allegations.

Swift donated $250,000 to Kesha in a “show of support� to help in her legal fight.

Adele, Lady Gaga and others also offered support to Kesha.

As a star, Swift had another way to take action. Andrea Swift and other members of Swift’s team pushed for Mueller to be fired, which led to his lawsuit against Swift and her representatives.

Mueller’s ex-girlfriend, Shannon Melcher, testified Friday that she saw nothing happen during the brief encounter at the photo session at a Denver arena in 2013 before a Swift performance.

Swift and her legal team have pointedly framed what Mueller allegedly did to her as a sexual assault, not “inappropriate touching� as Mueller’s lawyer, Gabriel McFarland, refers to it.

In Colorado, what Swift alleges is considered unlawful sexual contact or harassment, a misdemeanor, which victims have five years to report to police to prompt an investigation, said Karen Steinhauser, a former chief deputy prosecutor for the Denver District Attorney’s Office. It is unclear if Swift would reconsider pursuing a criminal charge.

On the witness stand, the singer defiantly told McFarland that she was not going to let him or his client make her feel that what happened was her fault.

Swift is countersuing Mueller, alleging assault and battery, and seeking a symbolic $1 judgment holding him responsible. Jurors will still get to decide that, along with whether Swift’s mother and radio liaison interfered with Mueller’s career.

Even though she’s not a fan of Swift’s music, Samaria Alli, 21, lined up for a spot inside

Rod and Rose Culbertson

Paige Brasington, 21, a Swift fan from The Woodlands, Texas, said she was groped on public transportation while studying abroad and was glad Swift was giving attention to the issue with the same honesty she brings to her music.

The University of Georgia student was stunned the first time it happened to her on a crowded tram in Budapest, thinking there must have been an object pressed against her. After she reached down, she found a man’s hand on her butt. He exited at the next stop. When she told a male friend, he asked if she had enjoyed it. “The most important thing about this trial is it gets people talking about this issue,� Brasington said. “It forces them to confront that it is wrong and should never happen.�

Holly Kearl, founder and director of Stop Street Harassment, which commissioned the 2014 U.S. survey, said women who speak out face not being believed or being blamed for groping, something many women have reported in sharing their stories on the group’s website.

Kearl was standing outside a house after leaving a party in college when a group of men ran by and one of them grabbed her crotch. “It’s just something that happens in our society, and if we don’t challenge it, it’s going to keep happening,� she said.

Swift did not go to the police either. Her mother, Andrea Swift, testified they had hoped to keep the matter private and did not want it to define the singer’s life.

The family of Rod and Rose Culbertson is hosting a card shower in honor of the couple’s 50th wedding anniversary Aug. 20.

Taylor Swift groping trial draws attention to hidden outrage DENVER (AP) — Taylor Swift’s allegation that a former morning radio host reached under her skirt and grabbed her backside during a photo op is bringing attention to a common but largely hidden outrage for many women, one that few report.

A 2014 survey found nearly 1 in 4 women in the United States had been groped or brushed up against in a public place by a stranger at least once.

But many never talked about it, let alone went to the police. A 2015 survey of more than 16,000 people globally found more than half of the respondents outside the U.S. had been fondled or groped.

The then-girlfriend of former DJ David Mueller, who was standing with Mueller and Swift when the singer says he groped her, even testified that a co-worker had grabbed her backside at another concert.

Mueller denies groping Swift and sued the singer, saying he was fired because of her false allegation.

Late Friday, just as closing arguments were set to begin, the judge threw out Mueller’s claims against Swift — saying after he’d heard all of the evidence that Mueller could not prove Swift had anything to do with his losing his job. U.S. District Judge William Martinez also said there was no indication that Swift had made up her story.

Even before that ruling, women around the world, not all of them fans of Swift’s music, had been cheering the pop superstar for confronting the issue in federal court and keeping an unflinching attitude on the witness stand.

On social media, some are using a teal ribbon that represents opposition to sexual violence and praising Swift as an example for other women.

NEW YORK (AP) — The “Conjuring� spinoff “Annabelle: Creation� scared up an estimated $35 million in North American theaters over the weekend, making it easily the top film and giving the lagging August box office a shot in the arm.

The opening came close to matching the film’s predecessor, “Annabelle,� which opened with $37.1 million in October 2014. Warner Bros. could celebrate not only the month’s biggest debut but also having the week’s top two films. Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk� followed in second with $11.4 million in its fourth weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Even amid an especially weak August, the well-reviewed horror sequel and modestly budgeted “Annabelle: Creation� found eager audiences. “That we were able to do $35 million in what is a very sluggish marketplace was very impressive,� said Jeffrey Goldstein, Warner

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)You can make money with your words today, which is good news for people who write, sell, market, teach or act.

This also is a positive day to deal with relatives.

AFTON — East Union’s girls cross country squad heads into 2017 without the benefit of several leaders who have hung around since the beginning.

Emma Harper, Jena Proffitt and Allison Hadley were leaders in a program that has only existed four seasons and now enters its fifth without those runners.

Led by those three seniors a year ago, the Eagles won the Pride of Iowa conference meet in Mount Ayr last October.

Gallagher hits slam for 1st MLB homer, Royals beat A’s 6-2 OAKLAND, Calif. — First, Cam Gallagher focused on drawing a walk when he got the count to 3-0. Then, upon making contact, he thought the ball might hook foul.

It stayed right on line, and the Royals rookie had his first career home run in grand style.

Gallagher hit a grand slam for just his second big league hit, leading Kansas City past the Oakland Athletics 6-2 on Monday night.

Gallagher’s shot into the left-field seats in the sixth inning marked the first grand slam by a Royals rookie since Paulo Orlando connected in the first game of a doubleheader against Tampa Bay on July 7, 2015.

Kansas City’s catchers sure have been handling the daunting role of filling in for injured star Salvador Perez — and it Gallagher was Perez who helped make sure Gallagher received the

souvenir ball for framing and a spot in his trophy case.

“Honestly, I don’t think it’s really sunk in yet,” Gallagher said. “When I get back tonight, laying in my hotel bed, I’m going to start thinking about it and it’s going to set in a little bit. It’s definitely nice to get the win tonight. We’re in a playoff push and honestly that’s the most important part.”

Jake Junis (5-2), recalled for his seventh stint with Kansas City this season and a teammate of Gallagher’s for five years now, allowed two runs and four hits in six innings with two strikeouts and no walks.

After the grand slam, Junis told good friend Gallagher he would do his part to shut down the A’s.

“I could tell on his 3-1 swing, he took a hack,” Junis said. “He was ready.”

The Royals moved into a second-place tie with the idle Twins, five games back of AL Central-leading Cleveland.

Alcides Escobar singled to load the bases in the sixth, and is 10 for 21 since an 0-for-21 stretch.

Royals center field-

er Lorenzo Cain robbed Boog Powell of a likely extra-base hit in the third with a great catch crashing into the wall.

Whit Merrifield hit an infield single to begin the game against A’s starter Jharel Cotton (5-10) and then stole his 20th base.

Cotton came off the disabled list July 30 from a right thumb blister and has an 8.71 ERA in four starts since. His winless stretch reached five starts and he is 0-3 since a victory at the White Sox on June 23.

The right-hander was tagged for six runs and eight hits in six innings.

He dropped to 1-7 in nine night starts and 2-6 in 10 home outings.

A’s manager Bob Melvin didn’t commit on whether Cotton might need a break from the rotation.

“I want to go out there every five days, and pitch for my team,” Cotton said. “I think I’ll get out of this funk just by pitching.

That’s all I can do.”

BIG CHECK Gallagher’s grand slam earned Tim Brown of Shawnee, Kansas, $25,000 as part of the “Sonic Slam” inning promotion.

Homers by Bryant, Rizzo power Cubs to 15-5 rout of Reds CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs waited all season for a hot streak from NL MVP Kris Bryant. Now that he’s on one, they want it to last a while.

“My history with him is when he gets it, it stays there,” manager Joe Maddon said.

Bryant and Anthony Rizzo hit back-to-back homers to cap a five-run fourth inning, and the Cubs continued their recent dominance of the Cincinnati Reds with a 15-5 victory Monday night.

Bryant went 2 for 4 with a walk and has Bryant reached safely in 16 of his last 20 plate appearances.

“It’s a special stretch,” said Rizzo, who was 3 for 5 with a season-high five RBIs. “It was a matter of time before he’s doing what he’s doing. It’s fun to watch.”

Jon Jay had three hits with an RBI and finished a home run shy of the cycle as Rizzo the Cubs extended their NL Central lead to 1 1/2 games over idle St. Louis. Jose Quintana (32) allowed two runs, one earned, and four hits in five innings to snap a three-start winless stretch.

Chicago has 25 wins in its last 32 games against the Reds. The Cubs have swept the last two series at Wrigley Field between the teams going back to last season, and won 11 of the past 13

meetings there the last two years.

Scooter Gennett hit a two-run homer, his 20th, in the eighth for the Reds, who have five players with at least 20 home runs to tie a club record. Gennett also mopped up on the mound after beginning the game at second base.

Cincinnati catcher Devin Mesoraco broke his left foot when he was hit by a pitch in the second.

Joey Votto went 3 for 5 to set a Cincinnati mark by reaching base at least twice in 19 consecutive games.

It’s the longest streak in the majors since B a r r y Bonds did it in 20 straight in Votto 2004.

“We had a lot of guys on base today; both teams did,” Reds manager Bryan Price said. “They were able to take advantage of it a bit more.”

Reds starter Asher Wojciehowski (3-2) appeared to settle down after a rough first inning, but couldn’t get the final out in the fourth.

With Jason Heyward at first and two outs, Jay tripled into the right-field corner to give Chicago a 3-2 lead. Tommy La Stella followed with an RBI single to make it 4-2.

Bryant then cracked a two-run homer and Rizzo followed with a solo shot for a 7-2 edge. The Cubs scored six times in the seventh — highlighted by reliever Mike Montgomery’s two-run double and Rizzo’s two-run single — to make it 12-2. After the Reds scored three times in the eighth, Javier Baez hit a two-run homer off Gennett in the CUBS | 10A

Former Arkansas coach, athletic director Frank Broyles dies at 92 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Frank Broyles, who guided the University of Arkansas to its lone national football championship and later molded the overall program as its athletic director, died Monday at the age of 92.

Broyles died from complications of Alzheimer’s disease, according to a statement from his family. “He passed peacefully in his home surrounded by his loved ones,” the statement said.

Broyles won almost 71 percent of his games as head football coach with the Razorbacks for 19 years. He became the school’s athletic director in 1974 while still the football coach, eventually retiring from the gridiron to focus on administrative duties following the 1976 season.

As athletic director, Broyles led an overhaul and upgrade of Arkansas’ facilities — as well as leading the school in its move to the Southeastern Conference. Following his coaching career, Broyles — who earned a spot in the National Football Foundation’s College Hall of Fame — served as an analyst on ABC’s college football telecasts.

HE ALWAYS HIT ‘EM FAR; NOW STANTON IS HITTING ‘EM FAST MIAMI (AP) -- Given Giancarlo Stanton’s recent home run binge, Derek Jeter may decide baseball’s biggest contract is a bargain.

Stanton signed a record $325 million, 13-year deal in 2014 with the Miami Marlins, and they still owe him about $300 million an eye-popping number even to a former All-Star shortstop for the New York Yankees.

Jeter’s investment group agreed last week to buy the Marlins from Jeffrey Loria, and given the franchise’s history of low

revenue and attendance, there’s already speculation the incoming regime may deem Stanton unaffordable.

But lately, he looks like a keeper at any price.

Stanton’s knack for moons h o t s has long m a d e Stanton him the sport’s most prodigious slugger, and now he’s also the most prolific.

He homered against the

San Francisco Giants in the first inning Monday night to increase his season total to 43, most in the majors and a franchise record.

He has homered in his past five games, another team record, and has 22 homers in his past 34 games.

He would finish the season with 72 homers - one shy of Barry Bonds’ 2001 record - if he continues his pace of the past five weeks.

“It has been amazing to watch,” manager Don Mattingly said Sunday.

“You know you’re watching something special,” teammate Javy

Guerra said. “It’s very weird to see a guy come to the plate, and you think he could homer every time.

It’s a lot of fun to be a fan.”

Stanton homered Sunday against the Colorado Rockies to tie Gary Sheffield’s franchise record for homers in a season, set in 1996. The home run was the 250th for Stanton in 3,407 at-bats, and by that measure, only four players reached the milestone faster - Harmon Killebrew, Ralph Kiner, Babe Ruth and Ryan Howard.

“Crazy,” said Stanton, 27. “Those are guys you

glorified and put on a pedestal as gods as a kid, and you’re right there on the same plane as them now.

So it’s something special.”

This year is special for Stanton because he has remained healthy, missing only two games. It’s the first time since 2011 he has avoided an injury that sidelined him for a lengthy stint.

Worst was a season-ending beaning in September 2014. Stanton led the National League in home runs and RBIs when his face was fractured STANTON | 8A

Marlins fans are counting on Jeter to change the team’s fortunes. Stanton? He’s already tired of questions about the new ownership, and about his future.

Team management expects to close on the $1.2 billion sale in early October, so it may be awhile before Jeter can provide any answers. “It still has months to process,� Stanton said with a sigh. “So we’ll just wait it out.�

Bagley chooses Duke, could make Blue Devils preseason No. 1 (AP) —Top high school prospect Marvin Bagley III has committed to Duke and is eligible to play in the 2017-18 season, immediately making the Blue Devils a top national-title contender.

Bagley made his announcement on ESPN’s SportsCenter on Monday night.

The 6-foot-11 Bagley is widely considered the top recruit of the 2018 recruiting class, but last month petitioned the NCAA to reclassify and become college eligible for the upcoming season.

Bagley went on campus visits in July to Duke and USC, with UCLA also in the mix.

Bagley started his high school career at Tempe Corona del Sol High School and ended up at Southern California’s Chatsworth Sierra Canyon High School.

Sept. 2 is the only points night remaining on the calendar for the Late Models and the championship battle is destined to come down to the wire as Corey Zeitner is currently the man in charge, but he only holds a two-point lead over O’Brien with Leighton close behind, only eight points behind Zeitner.

Adams Co. Speedway

CORNING – Eighty-three cars were in attendance Saturday night for Northland Oil Stock Car Night with Northland Oil Stock Car King of the Hill. The O’Reilly Auto Parts Late Models also made their first appearance at ACS in almost a month.

The pressure was high for the late model drivers as they came into Saturday night with just two points night remaining on the schedule. The three finalists voted on by the fans for Keystone Light Smoothest Driver for the Northland Stock Car class were Derrick Dredge, Brad Herring and Buck Schafroth. Herring won the award racking up more votes than anybody else in any class.

Northland Oil Stock Cars You’d be hard pressed to find one car in the event that didn’t deal with some sort of adversity, including Bedford’s Brad Derry, who overcame a broken shock to get to victory lane.

Things started off early when accident on the first lap of the race collected Jonathan Kinser, Rick Bissell, Kevin Sharp and Buck Schafroth, leaving extensive damage to Buck’s No. 92 Wreckers or Checkers Bar machine. Tony Hardisty quickly jumped out

O’Reilly Auto Parts Late Models Feature action began with the O’Reilly Auto Parts Late Models. Sterling Perkins started on the pole but was quickly overtaken by Andrew Kosiski for the lead. Kosiski never looked back from there, holding onto the lead despite hard charges from championship contenders Bill Leighton Jr.

to a lead over Brad Derry while the two battled fiercely for the lead, however a broken ball joint on Hardisty’s machine while running door to door with Derry led to an accident between the two cars that cut Hardisty’s night short and sent Derry to the pits for his crew to repair a broken shock.

Kevin Sharp took the lead after this and looked like he might be on his way to the win, but Derry quickly charged through the field and got around Sharp on the last lap to pick up the win, his first in almost two years.

Sharp came home in second followed by Buck Schafroth in third, Joe Zadina in fourth and Jesse Lund in fifth.

Tri-State Ford Compacts Rookie Dustin Thompson has broke onto the scene in the Tri-State Ford Compacts this year. The Villisca native has four wins on the season, leads the weekly points standings and finds himself in the top three in the national standings. He kept his string of good luck going Saturday night in dominating fashion.

Thompson started the feature in sixth and took the lead on the first lap where he

would hold onto it. Thompson held off charges from Chris Vannausdle and Buddy Haidsiak, but was never in any imminent danger even when a caution came out with just a few laps to go. Thompson cruised to his fifth win of the season while extending his points lead. Vannausdle finished second, Evan Hrabik finished third followed by Haidsiak in fourth and Dean Richards rounded out the top five.

Chat Mobility Hobby Stocks “Lightning McQueen” Jerid Lund retired from last week’s Chat Mobility Hobby Stocks feature with an electrical problem. The same problem plagued Lund during hot laps, but he wouldn’t be denied as the Greenfield native captured his third win of the season in a wild feature race.

Lund started on the front row and quickly drove to the front while Brad Derry piloted the No. 17 machine up into the second spot. It appeared Derry might have something for Lund but a cut tire created an accident between Lund, Derry, David Weeda and Luke Ramsey. However, officials credited Lund with

Poet Bio-Refining Modifieds Ryan Jenkins had his work cut out for him in the Poet Bio-Refining Modified feature on Saturday night.

The Omaha native started in the 10th position and methodically worked his way up to the front while fellow Nebraskan Jacob Hobscheidt led the early half of the race.

A caution at around the halfway point bottled things back up. Hobscheidt bobbled on the restart while Jenkins and Wiggins flew around him.

The two then proceeded to battle for the lead, exchanging it a couple times before Jenkins finally pulled away for his second win of the season.

Wiggins finished in second, followed by Jesse Dennis in fourth and Jacob Hobscheidt rounded out the top five.

King of the Hill Action concluded on Saturday night with the stock car King of the Hill.

In the first round, Joe Zadina defeated Dillon Carlisle, Cody Clark defeated Jesse Lund, Tony Hardisty defeated Jonathan Kinser and Buck Schafroth defeated James Carroll. In the quarterfinals, Cody Clark defeated Joe Zadina and Tony Hardisty defeated Buck Schafroth to set up the showdown between Clark and Hardisty.

Things got dicey on the first lap as the two cars got together and went around. The accident prompted ACS officials to allow both drivers to attend to their crews for repairs and was ruled a complete restart.

Hardisty hit his marks on the second try and cruised to royalty and the right to be named stock car King of the Hill.

This week Saturday night at the Adams County Speedway promises to be an exciting night at the races. The Malvern Bank Super Late Model Series make their second appearance of the season and the Karl’s Chevrolet Dirt Truck Racing Association makes its first appearance at ACS in years. Grandstand admission is $15 for adults, $7 for kids age 7 through 17 and kids 6 and under get in free. Hot laps will begin at 6:30 p.m. with heat races at 7.

CUBS:

Said Votto: “No matter the alignment in the infield or outfield, I do the exact same thing. When I get caught up with what’s going on defensively is when I get myself in trouble with my approach.”

TRAINER’S ROOM Reds: OF Scott Schebler (left shoulder strain) will begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Louisville. Cubs: SS Addison Russell (strained right foot) is eligible to come off the 10-day DL, but isn’t close to returning. “He’s coming along slowly,” general manager Jed Hoyer said.

2B Ben Zobrist was scratched an hour before the game with a stiff neck.

UP NEXT Cubs righthander Kyle Hendricks (44, 3.70 ERA) faces rookie righty Luis Castillo (2-5, 3.73) in the second game of the four-game series Tuesday. Hendricks is 3-0 with a 2.22 ERA in five career starts against Cincinnati.

bottom of the inning.

The game marked the beginning of a stretch of 24 straight for the Cubs against teams currently with losing records.

BAYLOR REMEMBERED Don Baylor, who managed the Cubs from 2000-02, was honored before the game with a moment of silence and a video tribute on the Wrigley Field scoreboard. Baylor died last week from cancer at 68.

FOUR ACROSS Maddon used four outfielders when Votto came to the plate in the fifth. He still managed to double down the right-field line. “I did it in Tampa Bay with (Jim) Thome, (David) Ortiz and (Travis) Hafner and, I think, Josh Hamilton, too,” Maddon said. “Votto right now is ungodly, so whatever you do you’re taking chances.”

“They’re a fun group to be around,” Bryson said. “The climate those seniors created is a very positive climate. The kids encourage each other a lot. If someone comes in and does their workout first thing they walk back out on the course to bring their teammates in.”

Not that the Eagles are satisfied with just doing OK. They know 2017 will be a growing process, but success is the expectation.

“I’m not training for the people that are behind you, I’m training you because we’ve got people in front of you we’ve got to catch,” Bryson said.

“Some have given talent, and some of them are working just as hard as you are. Now you’ve got to go that extra step.”

One final thing that Bryson hopes his runners keep on their minds throughout the season is how important each varsity runner was down the roster on the squad’s way to a POI title a year ago, and ho the team can carry that lesson into this season.

“Emma, Jena and Allison didn’t win meets by themselves,” Bryson said.

“It was all of them. It was five to seven girls running well as a team.”

weakness. Signs of poisoning may appear in pets within 30 minutes after ingesting toxins.

Pet owners should carry a water bottle with them when walking their pets around the lake, giving the pet drinks from the bottle as opposed to allowing the pets to drink from the lake.

“You’d have to drink quite a bit to go into liver failure as a human, and I think you would be grossed out before that,” Husband said. “But pets, they get that matte algae on them and they don’t know any better than to lick it off. They’re a lot smaller animal than we are by mass.”

The DNR tests the lake every week and results are often posted Friday afternoon. When microcystin levels are high, signs are posted near the lake warning people of the dangers.

DAVENPORT (AP) — A disbarred Iowa attorney who’d eluded the FBI for years has been sentenced to prison.

Federal prosecutors say Dennis Bjorklund was given 30 months at his sentencing Friday in Davenport and was ordered to pay $10,000 in restitution. He’d pleaded guilty to 11 counts of mail fraud.

Prosecutors say Bjorklund was an attorney in Coralville in 2005 and 2006 when he carried out a scheme while representing people charged with driving drunk. Bjorklund instructed his clients to donate to a substance abuse charity to try to garner leniency from the court. But the charity was a fake he had set up to collect the donations for his own use.

Pictured is a sign posted near the beach at Green Valley Lake north of Creston. The sign alerts people that the lake has tested positive for high levels of microcystins, which can cause a variety of symptoms when coming into contact with the blue-green algae.

“If we get cooler temperatures and we get some rain, I would expect (the levels) to dip back down,” Husband said. “It’s like every year, it gets in that warm, hot, dry

period of summer and we’re going to test positive. That’s how that lake is going to be.

People need to be aware of that.”

Red Cross blood shortage continues In appreciation, $5 Target eGiftCard available for all those who come out to give

appointments were scheduled by donors using the free Blood Donor App or at redcrossblood.org. Despite this improvement, blood products are still being distributed to hospitals as fast as donations are coming in, so more donations are needed to meet patient needs and replenish the blood supply.

“The blood supply is like a cell phone battery, it constantly needs recharging,” said Nick Gehrig, communications director of Red Cross Blood Services. “We sincerely appreciate those who have responded to the call to help save lives and encourage those who haven’t to consider rolling up

■

Thousands of people have responded to the emergency call for blood and platelet donations issued by the American Red Cross in early July, but there continues to be a critical summer blood shortage.

Eligible donors of all types are urgently needed.

After issuing the emergency call, the Red Cross has experienced a 30 percent increase in blood donation appointments through mid-July. About half of the

completion of a RapidPass online health history questionnaire are encouraged to help reduce the time it takes to donate.

As a special thank you, those who come out to give blood or platelets with the Red Cross now through Aug. 31 will be emailed a $5 Target eGiftCard.

Upcoming opportunity is from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Aug. 16 at Methodist Church, 108 SW Fifth St., in Greenfield, from noon to 6 p.m. Aug. 21 at Trinity Lutheran Church, 800 N. Sumner Ave., in Creston and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

a sleeve and give the gift of life. It only takes about an hour but can mean a lifetime for patients.”

Nearly 61,000 fewer blood donations than needed were given through the Red Cross in May and June, prompting the emergency call for donations in early July. The shortfall was the equivalent of the Red Cross not receiving any blood donations for more than four days.
