Linda Lucas Walling named to Creston High School Hall of Fame

By KELSEY HAUGEN CNA associate editor khaugen@crestonnews.com

COLUMBIA, S.C. – Linda Lucas Walling grew up in an era in which her relatively minor physical disability was viewed as one that lessened her mental abilities.

Living with cerebral palsy herself and also spending a small period of time in an institution among people with disabilities of varying degrees, Walling was awakened to the level of mistreatment of people with disabilities in the 1960s and the stigma associated with them.

After first seeking a career as a librarian, Walling would later become a pioneer in what was then an up-andcoming field: equity of access to information for all people.

Seeking to bridge the gap between informational resources and the ability to evaluate information by people with physical disabilities, learning disabilities or language barriers, Walling devoted much of her career to researching, writing and teaching about how to make information more accessible to all people.

And, in the process of doing some of the first research on the topic, Walling has earned numerous awards and has had a collection of materials – the Linda Lucas Walling Collection for Universal Access – established in her honor upon her retirement in 2003 in Columbia, South Carolina.

Now, the 1957 Creston High School graduate has been nominated for the 2016 Creston High School Hall of Fame. Walling and the other two nominees will give a speech and be inducted during a ceremony 7 p.m.

Thursday in the high school auditorium.

Childhood with cerebral palsy Walling, 76, of Columbia, South Carolina, was born in Kent to Gene and Florence Lucas. She had one brother,

the late Alfred Lucas, who had what would now be considered a learning disability.

Walling would later marry Bill Walling in 1991 in Columbia and have one step-son, Todd Hall.

Through eighth grade, Walling attended Union County rural schools. She started at Creston High School in ninth grade, where she participated in glee club, yearbook, the Jr. Town high school radio program and National Honor Society.

She also was an essay contest winner her junior year – a contest held by the same committee that would much later give her an award for a book she co-authored on the ways a library can meet the needs of a disabled child.

Creston High School helped shape her as a lifelong learner.

“I had some really fine teachers and they got me ready to go to college, and some of them continued to be my teachers at Creston Junior College, which is now Southwestern,” Walling said.

But, her high school experience was starkly different from that of her peers. She has carried emotional baggage throughout her life re-

sulting from the stigma of her disability.

“I have cerebral palsy. It’s mild, affecting my left side, but my parents’ attitude was that it was a severe disability,” Walling said. “That was a really hard time because that was back in the days of eugenics, when Hitler was doing bad things to people with disabilities in Europe, and there were people in this country, even, until the ‘60s who thought people with disabilities should either be killed or sterilized.”

While she considers her disability minor, it has had a major impact on her life.

“I took a lot of the same kinds of hazing and cruelty that kids even still today who have disabilities wind up facing,” Walling said. “My parents were really very good to me, although they were afraid I would be injured, and so they didn’t want me to do anything that was very physically active. I didn’t become active until I retired.”

on her career, as disabilities would become a focus of her writing and research.

Walling’s post-secondary education began at Iowa State Teachers College, which is now the University of Northern Iowa.

Walling sought to have her tuition costs covered by the Iowa Department of Vocational Rehabilitation. To qualify, she had to be observed in an institutional setting in Des Moines for a month.

“I lived in a house with other people who had all kinds of disabilities and went through evaluations and training for occupational and physical therapy,” Walling said. “It was a really interesting array of people, but it was also a real introduction to what institutional life is like and how people in those settings don’t have a lot of respect from the people working with them.

We were pretty much all assumed to be mentally deficient and not trusted; it was Institutionalization not a pleasant situation.”

The department did But, Walling’s experience award Walling the scholarwith cerebral palsy and her ship, which paid for her last brother’s experience with a three years of undergraduate learning disability also wound up having a positive effect WALLING | 2A

Wells Fargo CEO apologizes for betraying customers’ trust WASHINGTON (AP) — The CEO of Wells Fargo apologized before harshly critical senators Tuesday for betraying customers’ trust in a scandal over allegations that employees opened millions of unauthorized accounts and moved money into them.

Chief Executive John Stumpf showed contrition in testimony to the Senate Banking Committee, saying he is “deeply sorry” that the bank failed to meet its responsibility to customers and didn’t act sooner to stem what he called “this unacceptable activity.” He promised that the bank will contact every affected customer.

Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., the panel’s chairman, said Wells Fargo had a corporate culture “that drove company ‘team members’ to fraudulently open millions of accounts using their customers’ funds and personal information without their permission.”

“If there were ever a textbook case where consumers

needed protecting, this was it,” Shelby said.

As part of the sharp questioning, Stumpf was pressed on whether Wells Fargo employees committed fraud, and Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee said it would be “malpractice” if the bank doesn’t institute compensation clawbacks.

The bank has in place executive compensation clawback provisions that the board could implement.

Stumpf said during the hearing that the company’s board “has the tools to hold senior leadership accountable,” including himself and Carrie Tolstedt, the former head of the retail banking business.

Tolstedt announced in July her retirement from the bank this year. Tolstedt is expected to leave with as much as $125 million in salary, stock options and other compensation.

Wells Fargo has long been known for its aggressive sales goals, but the details WELLS | 2A

Iowa’s unemployment rate up slightly to 4.2 percent DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa’s unemployment rate rose slightly again in August to 4.2 percent but remains lower than the national rate.

Iowa Workforce Development reported Tuesday that the August rate was up from 4.1 percent in July and an increase from 3.6 percent a year ago.

Iowa’s unemployment rate compares to a 4.9 percent national rate.

The rate increased although the number of working residents increased by 1,700 people to a total of 1.64 million.

The number of unemployed residents increased to 72,700.

school. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1961.

Librarian work From 1961 to 1965, Walling worked as a librarian – first as a high school librarian in Sidney, Montana, and then assistant high school librarian in Minot, North Dakota.

She pursued further education in this field by earning a Master’s of Library Science degree from the University of Washington in 1966.

Her next job was at the Iowa State University Library. From 1966 to 1973, she was a reference librarian, interlibrary loan librarian and gifts and exchange librarian. “I discovered along the way, and this is how my collection came to be, that a lot of public librarians and school librarians didn’t want to work with children with disabilities because they thought they had to have a lot of special materials to work with them,�

Walling said. “I was convinced that wasn’t necessary, that if they understood the children, or adults, they could help them (learn).�

Teaching After becoming an associate professor, Walling became a professor in 1987. “I first came to know her when I began the doctoral problem (at USC) and was very interested in equity of access as a research area, and that had been her area of expertise,� said Clayton Copeland, Ph.D. instructor in the USC library school. “I was privileged to be able to work with her over time. In addition to that, she has asked me to take over the management and administration of the Linda Lucas Walling Collection for Universal Access.�

Her main area of expertise was teaching reference courses for people who were going to be reference librarians, as well as those going into library administration.

She also taught disabilities class and institutional librarianship classes. “I really developed an interest over the years in access to information for people in general – people with disabilities for sure, but also literacy issues and people who have another language than English as their first language, people who are poor and can’t afford computers, any kind of situation where they are limited in either accessing or evaluating the accuracy of information,� Walling said.

Changing paths Walling decided library administration was not the way she wanted to spend her life; she preferred teaching. She attended the University of Illinois from 1974 to 1977 as a doctoral student, research assistant and instructor in the library school.

While a student there, she volunteered at a halfway house for people with what was then called mental retardation, helping them receive job training. “I really enjoyed the people and realized how much more they were capable of than their families and society had let them experience,� Walling said.

She was awarded her Ph.D. in 1980 and had an interview with the University of South Carolina (USC) dean of the School of Library and Infor-

Money in customers’ accounts was said to have been moved to these new accounts without their permission. Debit cards were issued and activated, as well as PINs created, without telling customers. In some cases, bank employees even created fake email addresses to sign up customers for online banking services, the regulators said.

The bank sales staff had a

goal of getting each customer to have eight different accounts with the bank — up from the prevailing average of six.

Under the settlement, Wells Fargo neither admitted nor denied the allegations. It later said it plans to eliminate the sales targets

by Jan. 1. Some 5,300 Wells Fargo employees have been fired.

Stumpf offered some detail at the hearing about who was fired, saying “bankers, bank managers, managers of

managers, and even an area president.� They ranged in pay from about $35,000 to $65,000.

Hall of Fame

In 2003, Walling retired from the University of South Carolina with the title Distinguished Professor Emeritus. “In her lifetime, she’s had quite a lot of fortitude and courage to pursue a research area that, until she came along, really had not been explored and had the emphasis upon it that it should,� Copeland said. “She really has been a pioneer and deserves so much credit and gratitude for her contributions.�

Now, in her spare time, Walling has developed interests in genealogy, local history, writing poetry, art and studying spiritual visual symbols. She stays active through tai chi, a soft martial art.

Audit: Iowa State tax expert used school for personal gain AMES (AP) — Auditors say an agricultural law expert at Iowa State University collected $278,000 in speaking and consulting fees that should have been deposited with the school.

McEowen was director of the ISU Center for Agricultural Law and Taxation until his resignation in January. He also owned a private company

by Betty Wallace of Creston, who also graduated Wallace in the class of 1957. “I was pleased and delighted when I found out,� Walling said. “I knew my classmate Betty had been selected a few years ago and I had helped her get the paperwork together for ... (another classmate) when she was nominated. So, I know how much work it is to put all that together. I really appreciate somebody doing that for me. It’s really nice to be recognized as having made a contribution.�

Walling said she looks forward to returning to Creston and riding with classmates in the parade. “It’s going to be a fun adventure to do this. And, it really is an honor,� Walling said. “I’m very thankful to the people who nominated me and the committee who selected me. I know there are very well-qualified people already in the Hall of Fame, and I’m glad to be included with them.�

That set the stage for Walling to begin writing academically and personally on subjects of equity of access, people with disabilities and institutionalization.

Now, she has been published more than a dozen times, including “The Disabled Child in the Library,� the book she co-authored that was designated for an award by the President’s Committee on Employment of the Handicapped in 1985.

She has also been involved with the American Library Association and held various leadership roles within committees relating to her topics of interest. “She certainly is world renowned and highly, highly respected in our profession but also in terms of equity of access and her work with populations who are differently abled,� Copeland said. “It’s been a privilege to learn from someone who truly has been one of the first people in our discipline to explore this area of research and advocacy and who has dedicated so much of her life to making a difference for other people.�

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, September 20, 2016

New, relaxed Trump HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

Donald Trump allowed Jimmy Fallon to mess up his hair on the Tonight Show Thursday.

He seems relaxed and he’s going with the flow. Donald Trump dropped his claim that President Obama was born in Kenya and he’s now focused on promoting the theory that Hillary Clinton is legally dead.

The Los Angeles Times tracking poll showed Donald Trump with a six-point lead Thursday but he trails Hillary by a large margin in Southern California.

Trump may be trailing because Los Angeles already has a wall that keeps out illegal aliens. It’s called $2,000-a-month rent.

Hillary Clinton tried to rebound from a very tough week Thursday by reopening her campaign in North Carolina. Her comeback was buoyed that very day when her face appeared on

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

the October cover of Women’s Health magazine. It got Hillary a nomination for the Nobel Prize for Misdirection.

Donald Trump went on the talk show Dr. Oz to discuss with Dr. Oz his medical report. Dr. Oz read it and declared him fit to be president. This could start a trend. Next week, Judge Judy is going to clear Hillary Clinton of emailing classified information and faking pneumonia to change the subject.

Donald Trump trotted out his medical records and doctor’s notes Thursday when he appeared on the Dr. Oz show. In the interview, the GOP presidential candidate admitted he’s 20 pounds overweight, that he loves

fast food and he doesn’t exercise.

In other words he just carried the Midwest.

Donald Trump recognized Obama’s Hawaiian birth Friday and cited the Hillary Clinton campaign for starting the birther movement nine years ago. It all began when Senator Obama said he didn’t know who Don Ho is.

Don Ho was a great singer in Hawaii, but in L.A. Don Ho is a noble Spanish rent boy.

Donald Trump reversed course Friday and said that President Obama was born in the United States. It was a moot point anyway. Even if Obama was born in Kenya, at the time it was part of the British Empire and membership in that club has always had club privileges in the United States.

Colin Powell’s e-mail was hacked and released last week, revealing stinging barbs against the presidential candidates and

family members. In the e-mails, Powell made several references to the Clinton Mafia. That would mean Roger Clinton is Fredo, so don’t ever go fishing with Roger Clinton.

Samsung recalled their Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones for catching fire and exploding.

Their batteries short-circuit, ignite the liquid surrounding the lithium battery and burn everything on the phone. If Hillary loses the election her next million will come from her Samsung endorsement.

New York City’s Guggenheim Museum unveiled an 18-carat gold toilet Thursday which will be installed in a unisex bathroom on the first floor of the museum for anyone to use. What a generous gift. The solid gold toilet is on loan to the museum from Donald Trump’s backup airplane.

Hillary Clinton’s doctor claimed she had non-contagious

pneumonia Thursday. The campaign has become unbearably personal. Donald Trump’s medical report indicated that he now weighs 267 pounds, making a lot of people feel that Melania has earned the money.

The Portland Oregonian reports that a woman in Oregon who got very ill eating at Chipotle last week is suing the restaurant chain. What’s unusual news in the story is that the woman’s demanding as her settlement free Chipotle food. She could win under Oregon’s new right-to-die law.

The Las Vegas Sun ran a poll Thursday saying that Donald Trump has surged into a tie with Hillary Clinton in Nevada. It’s demoralizing to many. Just when Nevada thinks it owns the title of the place where Americans make the poorest choices of their lives, along comes Hillary or Trump.

Want a modern civics lesson?

First, forget everything you learned in high school government class about “democracy” and such.

Let me tell you what I’ve learned, running as an independent for the U.S. Senate for Iowa: It ain’t pretty.

If you’re not a Democrat or Republican, the state’s leading paper, the Des Moines Register, won’t report anything about your candidacy until August – even if, as I did, you announce in April and qualify to run.

If you’re not a Democrat or a Republican, Iowa Public Television won’t grant you one of its five criterion for being included in a televised debate. To qualify, you “must” meet all of the remaining four criteria—one of which is that you’ve raised $50,000 or more, even though you can’t imagine spending that much and even if you find that much invested in a single person’s candidacy wasteful, ridiculous and immoral.

If you’re not a big name, Iowa Public Radio won’t announce your announcement – not until,

that is, you finally chase down its news editor and he (who you actually like) capitulates and assigns the story 10 days after the fact, issuing the most perfunctory of “Oh, and this just in, too” brief mention-in-passing.

If you’re not a big name, the Associated Press will sideline you, too, until you demand an explanation for why they haven’t announced your announcement – and all you will get back is a phony, cheap, hollow, lackluster, “Well, we don’t always mention every candidate for the U.S. Senate,” to which you reply, “Well, in the name of journalistic fairness wouldn’t you either mention all, always or none, ever?”

If you’re not selling your soul to “big bigness” (read Monsanto, Farm Bureau or National Rifle Association), don’t expect donations of more than $5 here or $50 there. You’re on your own, kiddo – and you better hope that your fellow Americans will “reward” you for your purity and bravery, for not being a career politician but, rather, instead a “real person” like a waiter, farmer, trucker or … historian.

If you dare ask deeper questions or air inconvenient truths, expect to be shunned by the

media. That 83-year-old incumbent or (at 73) vanilla wanna-be, the two mainstream parties are backing will be window-dressed and peddled until the masses elect one or the other “yet again.” Forget real political change.

If you dare keep running, despite all these institutionalized hurdles, expect irate phone callers to berate you for “spoiling” the election, for “handing” it to the “greater evil” at the expense of the “lesser” one.

If you insist on running because you feel morally compelled to do something – even if naive – to counter the swelling madness, expect former classmates, fellow congregants, friends and even family to vote against you just because they don’t want to “waste their vote on an independent candidate” even as they grumble how “horrible” and vapid the “lesser evil” really is. Still, they’d hold their nose and vote askew.

If you ask them to vote their conscience, be prepared to see that they don’t have one anymore. “That’s so 20th century, so out of fashion or it just isn’t ‘realistic’ anymore.” Cynicism is in—and you’re out.

Michelle Obama hosts a Broadway event to help educate girls The U.S. first lady went to Broadway on Monday to host a concert for the spouses of global heads of state that included performances from female-centric shows. n

NEW YORK (AP) — Michelle Obama tapped some big voices to help deliver her push to get girls educated across the world.

The U.S. first lady went to Broadway on Monday to host a concert for the spouses of global heads of state that included performances from the female-centric shows “The Color Purple,” ‘’Waitress,” ‘’Wicked” and “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.”

“More than 62 million girls around the world are counting on us to be their voice,” Obama said. “And I intend to continue speaking out on their behalf — not just for the rest of my time as first lady but for the rest of my life. And I hope that you all will join me.”

The concert was held at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre — the normal home of “The Color Purple” — as part of the Let Girls Learn initiative, which encourages world leaders to provide education opportunities to millions of girls globally who do not attend school.

“When people hear stories of girls who aren’t in school, they want to help.

And as spouses of world leaders, so many of us here in this room have a platform that we can use to tell these stories and bring people together to take action for these girls. Because people will pick up the phone when we call,” Obama said.

The event, emceed by TV talk show host Stephen Colbert, took advantage of the gathering of world

leaders in New York for the opening of the 71st United Nations General Assembly. More than 50 spouses attended, along with public school children and girl scouts who packed the theater.

Colbert joked that Michelle Obama is one of the most admired women in the world “despite her constantly telling everyone to eat their vegetables.”

She hit the stage to a thundering ovation.

Remarks also were made by three girls from Jordan, Pakistan and Malawi about the work in their home countries still needed for adolescent girls, as well as songwriter Sara Bareilles, Jordan’s Queen Rania, and Gertrude Mutharika, the first lady of Malawi.

Bareilles, who wrote the songs “Brave” and “Love Song,” helped create the musical “Waitress,” the first-ever Broadway musical with an all-female creative team. She joked that she didn’t even notice that at first.

“What a gift that was — that I was given an opportunity to be so seen and so empowered and so trusted and so reflective of my environment that I actually for a moment forgot to notice how rare it was,” Bareilles said.

“That is my wish for girls all over the world: That they get the chance and the opportunity to see themselves reflected in the world around them.”

The 90-minute event included the 2016 best actress Tony Award winner Cynthia Erivo singing a powerful “I’m Here” from “The Color Purple,” Jennifer DiNoia and Carrie St. Louis singing “For Good” from “Wicked,” the performers Charity Angel Dawson, Stephanie Torns and Jenna Ushkowitz singing “A Soft Place to Land” from “Waitress,” and a medley of songs by Carole King led

by Chilina Kennedy.

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, September 20, 2016

‘Game of Thrones,’ ‘Veep’ take top honors at Emmys LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Game of Thrones” conquered the Emmy kingdom Sunday, honored as top drama for the second consecutive year and becoming the most honored prime-time TV series ever on a night of surprises and sharp political jabs.

“Veep” repeated as best comedy series and its star, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, won a record-breaking sixth Emmy as best comedy actress. Jeffrey Tambor’s trophy as top comedy actor for “Transparent” also was his second.

But the top drama acting trophies were far from predictable: Rami Malek of “Mr. Robot” and Tatiana Maslany of “Orphan Black” were the winners, both overcoming heavyweight competition.

“Oh, my God. Please tell me you’re seeing this too,” said a stunned Malek, who plays an emotionally troubled engineer caught up in a dangerous hacking conspiracy.

“Games of Thrones,” the fantasy saga based on George R.R. Martin’s novels, received a total of 12 awards Sunday and at last weekend’s technical arts ceremony for a cumulative 38, besting “Frasier” by one to claim most prime-time series awards ever.

The Emmys proved more adroit than the Oscars at recognizing and honoring diversity in Hollywood’s top ranks, with trophies going to minority actors and behind-thescenes artists including writers Aziz Ansari and Alan Yang of “Master of None.”

But Viola Davis of “How to Get Away with Murder” failed to repeat her 2015 best drama actress win, the first for a woman of color.

Tambor, who plays a transgender character on “Transparent,” called on

Hollywood to make him the last non-transgender actor to get such a role.

A shaking Louis-Dreyfus ended her speech by dedicating the trophy to her father, who she said died Friday. Before that, she honed in on GOP contender Donald Trump’s campaign.

“I’d also like to take this opportunity to personally apologize for the current political climate,” she said. “I think that ‘Veep’ has torn down the wall between comedy and politics. Our show started out as a political satire but it now feels more like a sobering documentary.”

She promised to “rebuild that wall and make Mexico pay for it.”

Her victory gave her six best comedy wins — five for “Veep,” one for “The New Adventures of Old Christine” — and broke her tie with Candice Bergen and Mary Tyler Moore.

Maggie Smith was honored as best supporting actress in a drama series for the final season of “Downton Abbey.” It was her third win for playing the formidable dowager. As has become her custom, she didn’t attend the ceremony. After Smith’s win, Kimmel said her Emmy would not be mailed to her but would be kept in the Microsoft Theater’s Lost and Found until she shows up to claim it.

Ben Mendelsohn of “Bloodline” won as best supporting drama actor and also was a no-show.

John Oliver captured the top variety talk series award for “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,” besting competitors including Jerry Seinfeld and host Jimmy Kimmel — who received barbed consolation on stage from Matt Damon, his longtime faux nemesis. The loss “makes a lot of sense,”

Damon said.

“The People v. O.J. Simpson,” which earned the second-highest number of nominations, converted five to trophies Sunday.

The dramatic retelling of the football star’s murder trial was honored as best limited series and writing, and earned awards for stars Courtney B. Vance, Sterling K. Brown and Sarah Paulson.

Paulson, who played prosecutor Marcia Clark, brought her as a guest and singled her out from the stage.

Clark was not the “the two-dimensional cardboard cutout that I saw on the news” but a “whipsmart” woman dedicated to justice for the case’s victims, Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman.

Regina King claimed the award for supporting actress in a limited series for “American Crime,” her second trophy for the program.

Louie Anderson was honored as best supporting actor in a comedy series for his portrayal of a loving but tough mom in “Baskets.”

“Mom, we did it!,” Anderson shouted, hoisting his trophy and dedicating the award to his late mother, Ora Zella Anderson.

“I have not always been a good man but I play one hell of a woman.”

“Saturday Night Live” cast member Kate McKinnon won the trophy for best supporting actress in a comedy for, officially, playing various characters. But she knew who to credit.

“Thank you, Ellen DeGeneres, thank you, Hillary Clinton,” she said, naming two of the famous people she’s caricatured on the show.

The Democratic presidential contender responded quickly with a

tweet: “Congratulations on your Emmy, Kate! Big fan of yours, too.”

The ceremony started out with a political edge.

In a video bit, Jimmy Kimmel was shown trying to get to the ceremony and encountering former GOP presidential contender Jeb Bush as a limo driver.

“Did you know you could make $12 an hour working for Uber?” a game Bush said, smiling.

He advised Kimmel that “if you run a positive campaign, the voters will ultimately make the right choice”— then told Kimmel curtly it was a joke.

In his opening monologue, the host said he was holding “Celebrity Apprentice” producer Mark Burnett responsible for the “Donald Trump phenomenon.”

In an attempt at comedy that fell flat, the ceremony announcer indicated that Bill Cosby would be taking the stage. After an awkward silence, Kimmel said it was a joke — the TV star embroiled in decades-old accusations of sexual assault wasn’t invited.

A pair of key changes made by the TV academy may have affected the outcomes in Sunday’s 27 categories. It revised how votes are cast and counted, switching from a ranking and points system to letting voters simply check off their top choice. That sharpened the selection process and might have affected past winners who managed to collect enough second-place votes to overcome the competition.

In another revision, this one implemented last year, voting was expanded from blue-ribbon panels to — depending on the award — giving substantially more or all of the academy’s 20,000plus members the chance to vote for finalists.

Angelina Jolie Pitt files for divorce from Brad Pitt NEW YORK (AP) — Brangelina is no more.

Angelina Jolie Pitt has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, bringing an end to one of the world’s most star-studded, tabloid-generating romances.

An attorney for Jolie Pitt, Robert Offer, said Tuesday that she has filed for the dissolution of the marriage.

Offer said the decision to divorce was made “for the health of the family.”

The couple has six children together: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne.

Though together for 12 years, Pitt and Jolie Pitt

only wed in August 2014.

They married privately in the French hamlet of Correns in Provence with their children serving as ring bearers and throwing flower petals. They announced the ceremony days later.

This is the second marriage for Pitt, who previously wed Jennifer Aniston. It’s the third for Jolie Pitt, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.

Though their initial romance — begun after the pair starred together in 2005’s “Mr. and Mrs.

Smith” — sparked an avalanche of interest, Jolie Pitt and Pitt settled into their own unique kind of domesticity.

The pair adopted children from Cambodia, Vietnam and Ethiopia.

And they sought to direct the glare of their celebrity toward other causes. Jolie Pitt, a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations, became an outspo-

ken voice for refugees and various causes in Africa, as well as for breast cancer treatment after undergoing a double mastectomy.

Jolie Pitt also launched herself as a film director. Last year, the couple starred together in her “By the Sea,” playing a glamorous couple vacationing together in France while their marriage was on the rocks.

Horoscope Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19)Think twice in all your discussions with others, because this is a confusing day. In fact, someone might be playing fast and loose with the truth. If you suspect someone is lying to you, you’re right.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)Avoid important discussions with bosses, parents and VIPs today. This evening, difficulties with a partner are likely.

Fortunately, this is minor stuff.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the Moon is in your sign at odds with Neptune. This means it’s easy to kid yourself about something. Likewise, it’s easy for others to kid you.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t be discouraged if someone older or in a position of authority is critical of you. This is temporary. Tomorrow is a different day!

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) In a group situation today, someone might squelch your plans, especially if your meeting is late in the day. You don’t have to take this seriously. Just wait a day or two.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept.

22) You are high-viz today. People notice you. Do not be so distracted that you are taken in by someone who is not honest. Be careful about what others tell you because it might not be true.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today, because there’s just too much confusion.

Nothing will be resolved.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Postpone important financial decisions today, because you might not have the correct facts. It’s possible someone will deceive you. Until you know for sure, do not act.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You have to go more than halfway when dealing with others today. Don’t let someone older discourage you. Family discussions might not be entirely true.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Confusion at work might lead to feelings of discouragement this evening, especially with a boss or an older co-worker. Do as little as possible today. Wait until tomorrow to see which way the wind is

blowing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)Romantic relationships might disappoint you today.

Don’t believe everything you hear. Late in the day, children might be an increased responsibility.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)–Family discussions are confusing today. An older family member might try to thwart your plans. Say as little as possible and postpone important decisions.

YOU BORN TODAY You are

talented with words and have a sharp wit. Mysteries intrigue you. You are an excellent problem solver. This is a year of choice. You likely will make an important decision. In the first half of the year, reduce your overhead expenses so that you are financially strong later in the year. Happiness is having alternatives.

Creston cross country to host home meet tonight at SWCC, Crestmoor Twenty-two teams set to compete

n

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

Creston’s cross country team will have an opportunity to test itself amongst some of the state’s best today when it hosts the Creston Cross Country Invitational today.

The meet starts with the middle school girls at 4 p.m. at Southwest Community College and Crestmoor Country Club.

Twenty-two teams across all four classes will be at the meet.

“There’s a lot of stateranked individuals and stateranked teams that will be at the meet,” said Creston

coach Pat Schlapia.

Creston will see a number of southwest Iowa schools for the first time.

“It’s the first time we see a lot of the Hawkeye 10 schools,” Schlapia said.

“With Thomas Jefferson coming over, there’s a lot of area schools. It will be nice to have that combination of all the teams.”

Creston will be running in its fifth meet of the season.

The Panthers are at about the halfeway mark of their season.

Expectations are high for the home meet.

“The expectations are to run at home in front of the crowd, have them support them,” Schlapia said. “All we can do is ask that they go out there and do their best.

That’s what the kids are going to do. As a coaching staff, that’s all we can ask.”

The top three teams will receive trophies and the top 25 individuals in both the varsity and JV races will Schlapia medal.

“Teams like coming over to compete for that kind of hardware,” Schlapia said.

“Throw in the competition and it’s really nice to see the running by ages.”

It’s “Crowd the Course” night. Fans are encouraged to come cheer on the local athletes by following the action around Crestmoor County Club and SWCC. “We would like to see everybody come out and support the team and the program and see a great day of cross country running,” Schlapia said.

The course will be very spectator friendly, Schlapia noted.

“They’re going to be able to see quite a bit of the race,” Schlapia said.

The race starts on the driving range at Crestmoor Country Club, then winds its way through the golf course, Southwest Community College, then finishes at the driving range.

The school and community can take pride in hosting such an event.

“It means a lot to the program and the school and the town of Creston,” Schlapia said.

Schlapia anticipates around 1,000 runners to participate in the event.

“There’s going to be some big races,” Schlapia said.

“It’s a great thing for cross country to host a meet like this.”

Creston Junior Varsity football

Creston/Orient-Macksburg reshman Rylan Luther (20), lays a hit on the Chariton junior varsity quarterback. Luther punished blockers for much of the game and wreaked havoc in the backfield for multiple QB hurries in Creston/O-M’s 32-0 win.

At left —Creston/Orient-Macksburg junior Michael Scherer (82) comes up with one of his three interceptions over the course of the Panthers’ 32-0 win over Chariton Monday. One of Scherer’s INT’s went for a 30-yard touchdown. Junior Garrett Dahl (2) looks on.

Panther JV defense creates chaos against Chariton Staff report

Michael Scherer intercepted Chariton three times and the Creston/Orient-Macksburg offense ran roughshod over the Chargers in a 32-0 home win that was shortened by lightning Monday.

The game was called with 7:10 remaining in the fourth quarter.

“It was nice to get our first win

of the season tonight,” coach Kevin Cooper said. “Our defense played really well tonight, causing four turnovers. The defense really set our offense tonight with good field position. Hopefully we can continue to improve as the year goes on.”

Andy Mills ran for 112 yards on 12 carries and a 50-yard touchdown.

Ryan Luther piled up 50 on six car-

ries.

Eli Loudon was 4-of-112 passing for 75 yards and had three 5-yard rushing touchdowns.

One of Scherer’s picks was for six points on a 30-yard return and another pick-six was negated on a push in the back penalty.

Dustin Merritt and Mason Kinsella were the Panther tackle leaders

with 15 and 10 respectively. Tristan Travis also racked up six tackles.

Merritt also had a fumble recovery on a muffed punt.

Mark Waigand also grabbed an interception in the win.

Eagles stay perfect with road win n Showdown with Lenox awaits Friday

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

HUMESTON — East Union’s football team quickly took care of business in Friday’s Eight-player District 6 game.

The Eagles scored 36 points in the first quarter, rolling to a 74-0 win at Mormon Trail.

Often, the Eagles found themselves with a short field.

They converted just about every time.

“Most of the night, it was a very, very short field,” said East Union co-coach James Hardy.

Knowing they were going into the game against an overmatched opponent, the Eagles stayed focused.

Six players found the endzone. Matthew Wittstock scored four on the ground.

Sanden Cheers, Ryan Collins, Sherman Hayes and Kole Seales each scored one.

Cheers threw for one score.

The longest touchdown came from 46 yards, showcasing the short field the Eagles often had.

East Union finished with

290 yards of total offense.

Wittstock had 65 yards on 11 carries.

Cheers rushed for Hardy 57 yards on two attempts. Hayes ran for 43 yards on 10 carries.

“When you score 74 points, you think there should’ve been some huge stats,” Hardy said “There wasn’t. Often we had a short field. To took to get them to score.”

East Union’s defense didn’t allow Mormon Trail to cross midfield.

Defensively, Beau Boswell had eight solo tackles and three assists. Lane Ripperger had seven solos. Alex Brown had four solos. Chris Case and Gabe Nixon each had an interception. Brow and Levi Parrott each had an interception.

The Eagles substitutes enjoyed extensive action. East Union’s coaches substituted liberally in the second quarter. Their starters didn’t play in the second half.

“What we were looking at was an opportunity for them to play in a varsity match,” Hardy said. “It was good for them to get some varsity reps and go from there.”

East Union’s reserves gave a good effort, even as the Eagles played conservative. The offense was kept basic, and the play clock was allowed to run down as much as possible.

“We told our kids to go and play hard, especially the younger kids,” Hardy said.

“You can’t tell the kids not to play hard. It wasn’t about running up the score. It was getting some kids some reps and experience and at the same time, executing what we were trying to do.”

Hardy credited Mormon Trail’s 11-member team for competing hard throughout.

“Kudos to those kids.

They played hard,” Hardy said.

UP NEXT — East Union (4-0, 2-0) faces a stiff road test at Lenox. The Tigers (31, 2-0) defeated Murray 36-6.

“They like to run and pass the ball with (quarterback Dawson) Tullberg and (Jared) Hensley. He (Tullberg) is one we’re going to be keying on big time.

“Our defense has going to be disciplined with our open field tackling, and tackling in space,” Hardy said.

Ayr’s offensive and defensive lines were pushed around quite a bit in a loss at Central Decatur last Friday.

The Raiders reestablished control in the trenches Friday against Woodward Academy.

The surge created on both sides of the ball helped the Raiders to a 34-7 win in Class 1A District 5 play.

“We did a nice job up front,” said Mount Ayr cocoach Delwyn Showalter.

“We were disappointed in them last week. (Friday) the offensive and defensive lines did a good job controlling things.”

Mount Ayr’s secondary held up against Woodward Academy’s passing attack.

“They’re a nice passing team,” Showalter said. “The secondary did a nice job.

They knocked down some b a l l s .

They had a couple of picks.

Our coverage was as good as it’s been.”

gressiveness.”

Mount Ayr forced Woodward Academy to pass.

“Once we forced them to pass, we were able to do some things in our pass coverage,” Showalter said.

Zach Murphy had seven solo tackles and four assists to lead the defense. Brayden Swank had five solos and one assists.

Mount Ayr forced five turnovers. Devin Russo, Hunter Wilson and Jacob McCreary each recovered a fumble. Marcus Daughton and Swank each picked off a pass.

Strong play all day helps Raiderettes take Eagle Classic

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

AFTON — Mount Ayr’s volleyball team has been coming to the Eagle Classic tournament for many years.

One place the Raiderettes had never finished was on top.

Behind solid all-around play during pool play and some scrappy play in the final, the Raiderettes were able to come away as tournament champions.

Mount Ayr went 3-0 in pool play, defeating Shenandoah 2-0, East Mills 2-1 and Winterset 2-1 in pool play. The Raiderettes topped Lamoni 2-0 in the semifinal, then downed East Mills again, this time 2-0 in the final. “This is a good day,� said assistant coach John Larsen, who filled in for head coach Tori Braby, who had to leave in the middle of the tournament for a personal commitment. “We had some ups and downs, but we kept playing.�

The Raiderette offense kept putting pressure on the other teams’ defense. “We attacked the ball really well all day,� Larsen said. “We were consistent in that phase of the

AREA:

game. We kept coming and kept coming.�

One of the areas Mount Ayr has grown the most in is its attacking. “That’s the area we’re improving the most as a team,� Larsen said. “We’re able to convert so many more balls to attacks and keep pressure on the other team. When you don’t keep sending free balls, you’ve got a chance to win a lot of matches.

Mount Ayr concluded a 10-1 week. “It was a great way to end the week for us,� Larsen said. “They had a great week. We’re excited about where we’re headed.�

On the day, Kelcie Shields had 54 kills. Keirston Klommhaus had 32 kills. Alyssa Johnson had 57 assists. Macy Larsen had 56 assists.

Blair Glendenning had 38 digs.

East Union went 1-2 at its home tournament and did not advance to the semifinals. The Eagles defeated Martensdale-St. Marys in two, fell to Interstate 35 in three and fell to Lamoni in two.

The Eagles struggled to find consistency throughout the day. “We had some good matches,� said East Union coach Gail Thatcher. “We came off slow. When your team’s young, you’re going to be

They’ve got some quick kids, as quick as we’ve seen all year. We did a good job adjusting to their quickness and were able to reach to those blocks.�

John Young had 77 yards on 14 carries to lead the way with one touchdown. Brad Phelps had 54 yards on nine carries. Murphy rushed for 39 yards on six caries with one touchdown. Kolben Klommhaus had the other touchdown. “We ran extremely hard,�

Showalter said. “Brad Phelps ran extremely hard. He came up with some nice gains. Everybody who touched the ball ran extremely hard.�

Tristan Holmes completed three passes for 30 yards with two touchdowns. Mitchell Jennett caught an 18-yard touchdown pass, while Isaac Grose caught a 3-yard touchdown pass.

UP NEXT — Mount Ayr (3-1, 1-1) squares off with second-ranked Pella Christian. The Eagles (4-0, 2-0) routed Interstate 35 49-0. “They’re just a very solid football team,� Showalter said. “They’re fundamentally sound. They’re well coached. Their passing game is as good as we’ve seen in the last couple years.

They’re not one dimensional. We can’t load up to stop the pas. We have to be able

CORNING — Southwest Valley had the winning taste once this season, taking down Red Oak 32-28 on opening night. Two tough losses, to Mount Ayr and Earlham, had the Timberwolves and coach Anthony Donahoo wondering if they’d be able to taste that feeling again.

Behind a solid overall game from both the offense and defense, the Timberwolves returned to the win column with a 49-20 win over Griswold Friday in Class A District 7 play on Homecoming night in Corning. “Overall, it was a great effort from our boys. It feels good,� said Donahoo. “After two losses, you wonder if you can do it again. It feels good.

It puts into perspective that we’re doing things the right way. Trust the process and good things will happen.�

The Timberwolves offense was dynamic throughout, totaling 482 yards of total offense. Southwest Valley rushed for 267 yards and threw for another 215.

Donahoo credited the work of the offensive line for creating gaping holes in the running game. “You could drive a truck through some of the lanes,�

Donahooo said. Jace Petersen rushed for 138 yards on four carries, including a 64-yard touchdown run. Jerad Shires had nine carries for 99 yards and two touchdowns, including a 63-yard run. Chance Cobb

The Eagles took the first set against Interstate 35, but dropped the next two. The Eagles couldn’t find momentum against Lamoni.

East Union’s play improved late against Lamoni, but it was too late to pull out the win. “When it got down to crunch time, when they realized they were

Cobb and company were running at will. “We imposed our will,�

Donahoo said. “We ran one play eight times in a row on one drive, a read option. We didn’t tell them the plays.

They just went in and flipped it back and fourth.�

The passing game worked well also. Cobb completed 8-of-11 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Shires caught two passes for 84 yards and one score, a 75yard pitch-and-catch from Cobb. Grant Maurer had two catches for 61 yards and one touchdown. Addison Bull had three receptions for 51 yards. Joey Kernen caught one pass for 19 yards. Southwest Valley’s defense held Griswold’s offense in check, with Grant Maurer picking off one pass.

Scott Palmer led the Timberwolves with five solo tackles and seven assists.

Petersen had three solos and eight assists. Maurer had four solos and seven assists.

Kernen had three solos and six assists. Brett Schafroth had one solo and eight assists. Evan Skelton had one solo and six assists. Special teams also contributed. Petersen took the second half kickoff 85 yards for a score that put the game out of reach.

Wolverines break into win column RIVERSIDE — Friday’s start for Nodaway Valley’s football team was a bit ominous.

The Wolverines defense stepped up after the initial surge by the Bulldogs, then the Nodaway Valley offense came up with its best outing of the season. Those elements combined for a 28-13 Wolverines win in Class A District 5.

Nodaway Valley picked up its first win of the season. “We needed it,� said Nodaway Valley coach Steve Shantz.

Riverside took the opening drive down the field, using 17 plays, capped off by a 5-yard Tanner Storrow touchdown run.

Nodaway Valley turned the ball over on its initial drive.

Royals thump White Sox, 8-3 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Yordano Ventura kept his pitch count down, which enabled him to go nine innings for the first time in the majors.

Ventura picked up his first complete-game victory, Kendrys Morales hit a three-run homer and the Kansas City Royals defeated the Chicago White Sox 8-3 Monday.

The Royals have won three straight, keeping their faint playoff hopes flickering with 12 games remaining. The Royals went 14-5 against the White Sox this year.

“My goal today was try to get as many outs as I can as quick as I can and go deep in the game and that’s what I did today,” Ventura said with catching coach Pedro Grifol as his translator. “I’m happy with it.”

Ventura (11-11) gave up nine hits, struck out five and walked one. His only other complete game in the majors was a 3-2 loss July 28 at Texas.

“He was outstanding,” Royals catcher Drew Butera said.

“He was efficient with his pitches. He had great movement, great life. He was really good.”

Ventura had allowed 10 runs, 17 hits and six walks in 11 1/3 innings in losing his previous two starts. He threw only 16 pitches in a 10-batter span to end the fifth and into the seventh.

“He did a phenomenal job of managing his pitch-count,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

—————— Clearfield Lions won the 13th-annual Outhouse Races Aug. 16 at the Iowa State Fair. Team members Celine Beggs, Todd Stoaks, Maddie Mobley, Nick Wurster and Jack Beggs, all of Clearfield, were awarded $300 in cash for besting their competition in speed.

Teams, composed of three pushers and one driver, construct their own outhouses. During the race, teams push the outhouses to a toilet where the drivers must clean off the toilet seat without using their hands.

Then, the drivers search for a corn cob buried in a cattle trough, change a roll of toilet paper and return to the outhouses where the teams push them back to the starting point.
