The flu mist is no longer being offered due to research showing it is less effective than the shot. So, those wanting to be vaccinated this flu season will have to receive the injection.

“It’s recommended by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), so it’s a nationwide recommendation not to administer the flu mist,” said Robin Sevier, U n i o n Sevier

This influenza season, the flu mist is no longer being offered due to national studies showing it’s less effective than the flu injection. In Creston, flu shots are being offered at Union County Public Health, Hy-Vee, Wal-Mart and Medicap Pharmacy.

County Public Health nurse. “CDC studies have shown that it was not effective to help protect against influenza.”

According to the CDC, flu vaccines cause antibodies to develop in a person’s body about two weeks after vaccination. These antibodies provide protection

against infection with the viruses that are in the vaccine.

Flu shots generally contain three to four strands of the most common types of influenza. The strands included in the vaccine may change from year to year.

“It depends. Researchers decide which strands

are going to be most prevalent, and then they make their formula according to that,” said Barb Ide, pharmacy technician at Creston Hy-Vee. Ide mentioned Hy-Vee offers the quadrivalent flu shot, which protects against FLU | 2A

Multiple injuries were reported after a Clarke Community Schools bus accident Wednesday, Sept. 7, in rural Clarke County.

The crash occurred 2:55 p.m. on 210th Avenue, just north of Truro Pavement.

According to an Iowa State Patrol report, Darwin Griffith, 72, of Osceola lost control of the school bus.

The bus entered the east ditch, struck a bridge railing, overturned and came to a stop on its right side in Squaw Creek.

There were seven students on the bus at the time of the accident.

According to WHO-TV, Griffith was issued a $195 citation by Iowa State Patrol for failure to maintain con-

trol of a vehicle.

WHO-TV reports Sergeant Nathan Ludwig with Iowa State Patrol said they do not believe speed was a factor and instead blame poor road conditions due to weather. And, this is the second time in 10 days in which weather and poor road conditions caused a vehicle to leave the roadway in Clarke County.

Superintendent update According to Clarke Superintendent Steve Seid, it had been raining hard throughout the majority of the day and the bus wasn’t on a paved road.

“It was very slippery and, for whatever the reason, the bus went off the side,” he said.

The seven students on the bus ranged in age from BUS | 2A

Van Wert man sentenced to 120 years for child pornography DES MOINES — Timothy Ryan Zollman, 31, of Van Wert was sentenced Thursday to 120 years in federal prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release after being convicted of two counts of production of child pornography.

According to evidence presented at sentencing, Zollman sexually assaulted and exploited 10 pre-

pubescent girls and video-recorded the assaults.

Zollman’s sentence was enhanced because he committed these crimes while he was listed on the Iowa Sex Offender Registry for a prior conviction.

Senior United States District Court Judge Robert W. Pratt presided over the sentencing.

“The evidence in this case showed Timothy Zollman is a dangerous predator,” said U.S. Attorney Kevin E. VanderSchel. “He was brought to justice because one of his victims, a young girl, was brave enough to report his criminal actions.

The significant term of incarceration Zollman will serve is appropriate and necessary to protect the public and other potential victims.”

Clear Lake to consider regulating vacation home rentals CLEAR LAKE (AP) — Clear Lake officials are considering regulating single-family homes that are used as vacation rentals.

A work group of city staff and local residents will be created to draft a proposed ordinance, The Globe Gazette reports.

City administrator Scott Flory says the group may consider occupancy thresholds, a permitting system, parking availability and ways to hold property owners accountable for continually loud renters, excessive trash and other nuisances.

Flory says rentals and guests haven’t been problematic, but it’s becoming more of an issue as rentals become bigger business in the city.

According to Flory, issuing permits and tracking vacation rentals might help find owners who aren’t paying the required hotel-motel tax.

Property owners who rent their homes for less than a month are required to pay a 7 percent tax to the city.

Creston News Advertiser | Friday, September 9, 2016

City Council members Tony Nelson and Mike Callanan, along with Mayor Nelson Crabb, told Flory they supported exploring an ordinance. But councilman Gary Hugi questioned just how big problem nuisance rentals are and who would be in charge of enforcing a new ordinance.

“Ultimately, it is the property owner’s responsibility no matter what happens on that property,” he said.

Clear Lake property owners Jim and Rebecca Raatz said they would not be against “reasonable” regulations. Property manager Sonja Muhm said landlords could assist police by stringently vetting potential renters.

“I have limits and I have turned people away because of those limits,” said Muhm, a real estate agent.

“I have had people offer to put tents in my yard. The answer is no.”

No timetable has been set on when the work group could deliver a proposal to the City Council.

“We also have the trivalent, which protects against three strands, if the customer prefers that,” Ide said.

Of the people who received flu vaccines last year in Union County, Sevier said 11 percent received the flu mist and 89 percent received the shot.

“We may see fewer numbers of people getting vaccinated because there’s no flu mist, but I can’t anticipate numbers,” Sevier said.

“We’ll make it as smooth of a process as we can for the kids.”

Children and elderly people, even if they are vaccinated, are most susceptible

to influenza and other viruses.

Ide emphasized the importance of having a herd immunity: the more people immunized, the lesser the chances of infecting someone who is susceptible to getting ill.

“It’s just important to have everyone protected,” Ide said.

“Even if you feel like you could handle getting the flu and getting over Ide it, it keeps you from spreading it to someone else, especially the elderly or the young. It’s really hard on them.”

Most insurance compa-

nies pay for the cost of a flu shot.

“The nice thing about HyVee is you get 20 cents off your fuel-saver card when you get a flu shot here,” Ide said.

In Creston this year, flu shots are available at the following locations: • Union County Public Health, 1700 W.

Seoul: North Korea’s 5th nuke test ‘fanatic recklessness’ SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea said it conducted a “higher level” nuclear test explosion on Friday that will allow it to finally build an array of stronger, smaller and lighter nuclear weapons. It was the North’s fifth atomic test and the second in eight months.

South Korea’s president said the detonation, which Seoul estimated was the North’s biggest-ever in explosive yield, was an act of “fanatic recklessness” and a sign that leader Kim Jong Un “is spiraling out of control.”

President Barack Obama condemned the test and said the U.S. would never accept the country as a nuclear power.

North Korea’s boast of a technologically game-changing nuclear test defied both tough international sanctions and long-standing diplomatic pressure to curb its nuclear ambitions. It will raise serious worries in many world capitals that North Korea has moved another step closer to its goal of a nuclear-armed missile that could one day strike the U.S. mainland.

Seoul vowed to boost psychological warfare efforts by increasing the number of propaganda loudspeakers along the rivals’ border, the world’s most heavily armed, and the number of hours of anti-North Korean broadcasts.

Hours after South Korea noted unusual seismic activity near North Korea’s northeastern nuclear test site, the North said in its state-run media that a test had “finally examined and confirmed the structure and specific features of movement of (a) nuclear warhead that has been standardized to be able to be mounted on strategic ballistic rockets.”

“The standardization of the nuclear warhead will enable (North Korea) to produce at will and as many as it wants a variety of smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear warheads of higher strike

power,” North Korea said.

“This has definitely put on a higher level (the North’s) technology of mounting nuclear warheads on ballistic rockets.”

North Korea, led by a third-generation dictatorship and wary of outsiders, protects its nuclear program as a closely guarded state secret, and the claims about advancements made in its testing could not be independently verified. But they center on a technological mystery that has long bedeviled outside experts: How far has North Korea gotten in efforts to consistently shrink down nuclear warheads so they can fit on long-range missiles?

South Korea’s main spy agency told lawmakers in a closed-door briefing after the test that it does not think North Korea currently has the ability to develop nuclear weapons that can be mounted on ballistic missiles, but intelligence officials expressed worries that the North’s efforts to do so are progressing more quickly than previously thought, said Kim Byungkee, a lawmaker from the opposition Minjoo Party.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye strongly condemned the test, saying in a statement that it showed the “fanatic recklessness of the Kim Jong Un government as it clings to nuclear development.”

She told a meeting of top security officials Friday night that, “We have to believe that Kim Jong Un’s mental state is spiraling out of control because he is not listening to any words from the international community or neighboring countries in his attempt to cling to power.”

Obama condemned the nuclear test “in the strongest possible terms as a grave threat to regional security.”

“The United States does not, and never will, accept North Korea as a nuclear state,” he said in a state-

ment. “Today’s nuclear test, a flagrant violation of multiple U.N. Security Council resolutions, makes clear North Korea’s disregard for international norms and standards for behavior and demonstrates it has no interest in being a responsible member of the international community.”

South Korea’s weather agency said the explosive yield of the North Korean blast would have been 10 to 12 kilotons, or 70 to 80 percent of the force of the 15-kiloton atomic bomb the United States dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima in 1945. The North’s fourth test was an estimated six kilotons.

North Korea said no radioactive material leaked, but the explosion put the region on edge.

Chinese state media said the nation’s environmental protection agency started nuclear radiation monitoring. Japanese planes began to collect air samples from national air space to analyze possible radioactive materials. Tokyo Gov. Yuriko Koike said Japan’s capital city is also testing water samples and monitoring radiation levels in the air.

In the North Korean capital, Pyongyang, residents were delighted.

“It’s really great news,” said Rim Jong Su, 42. “Now, I am full of confidence that if the enemies make any little provocations we will make a counter attack and we will surely win.”

of the four past quakes associated with North Korean nuclear tests, according to South Korea’s weather agency. Artificial seismic waves measuring 3.9 were reported after North Korea’s first nuclear test in 2006; 4.8 was reported from its fourth test this January.

North Korean leader Kim has overseen a robust increase in the number and kinds of missiles tested this year. Not only has the range of the weapons jumped significantly, but the country is working to perfect new platforms for launching them — submarines and mobile launchers — giving the North greater ability to threaten the tens of thousands of U.S. troops stationed throughout Asia.

North Korea has fired a total of 33 ballistic missiles since Kim took power in 2011, Seoul’s Defense Ministry said. In comparison, North Korea fired 16 ballistic missiles during the 17-year rule of Kim’s father, Kim Jong Il. The seismic activity comes on the 68th anniversary of the founding of North Korea’s government and just days after world leaders gathered in China for the Group of Twenty economic summit.

The test will lead to a strong push for new, tougher sanctions at the United Nations and further worsen already abysmal relations between North Korea and its neighbors. The North is already one of the most heavily sanctioned places on Earth, and many question whether the penalties work.

Check out this scam Dear Heloise: In your column, I read your advice on things NOT to do when SELLING ONLINE. My wife listed some items for sale and got three good offers from people who were out of state but shared the same link.

They sent checks for amounts much greater than the asking price, saying she should cash the checks and pay the “overpayment” to the people who would be picking up the item(s).

I took the checks to my banker, and he agreed that they were “probably” fake.

Even our captain from the sheriff’s department agreed that the checks probably were counterfeit.

Here’s where it gets interesting: It’s NOT against the law to print checks all day long; the law is broken by the person who deposits or cashes them! -- Pete T., Lubbock, Texas Good for you, Pete, for following up on those fraudulent checks. Thieves will always find new and better ways of scamming people out of their hard-earned money. -- Heloise

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)You don’t like things to be unclear about finances, property and jointly held wealth.

However, there is nothing you can do to change this; just keep dog-paddling.

Panther cross country makes strides at Thursday meet

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

JEFFERSON — Creston’s cross country teams have progressed nicely through their first two meets of the season.

Thursday’s race at Greene County was another step forward for the Panther girls and boys teams.

“We’ve been showing improvement these first two weeks,” said Creston coach Pat Schlapia.

As the young teams have gained more experience — with 16 of the team’s 27 runners having not run in a race before the start of this season — their mental approach has improved as well.

“That confidence is growing,” Schlapia said. “They’re

believing in themselves.

Now they see what’s ahed of them with the mental and physical approach. They’re understanding things. Our younger people are meshing along with our older people.

We’re seeing improvements individually and as a team.

We’re seeing some very positive things out of both sides.”

The Panther girls took good strides forward. Nine Panther girls finished in the top half of the 117-girl field.

Leading the way Baker was sophomore Brielle Baker with a sixth-place finish in 21 minutes, 43 seconds.

Baker broke the 22 minute barrier for the first time.

Baker also edged Winterset’s Layken Gurwell, who placed ninth. Gurwell had topped Baker in their first two meetings this season.

“It was nice to see Brielle beat her,” Schlapia said. “It was a real nice race for Brielle.”

T h e rest of the Panthers top seven b u n c h e d Groumoutis up quite well. The gap between second runner Sophia Groumoutis and seventh-place runner Saige Rice was 59 seconds.

“We had a nice bunch,” Schlapia said.

The next step is to cut

down the gap to Baker, who finished two minutes ahead of Creston’s chase pack.

“That grouping was great,” Schlapia said. “Now we need to move that group up second through seven to Brielle.”

Groumoutis, who finished 29th, ran 52 seconds faster than she did a year ago in the meet held at Spring Lake Park.

“That was nice to see her jump up with that progression,” Schlapia said.

The boys had one medalist in senior Ben Irr, who placed 12th. His time of 18:35 was his best of the season. Senior Isaac Wignall was 32nd.

Creston’s three-throughsix spots were occupied by freshmen. Levi Hitz was 46th, followed by Hunter Fry in 57th, Jared Moreland

in 75th and Devin Baker in 81st.

“You look at that, we had seven freshmen running for us and five of them ran for us first high school JV/varsity meet,” Schlapia said.

“Each time out, they’re going to grow.”

Hitz improved his best time of the season by a minute. Moreland and Baker also improved their times by over a minute from earlier this season.

Thursday’s meet was another learning experience for the very young boys team.

“Of those 10 guys, six of them ran their first high school varsity/JV race,” Schlapia said. “They’re still a little wet behind the ears.

They’ve got a lot of growing.

SWCC Hall of Famer Kragel tells athletes to seize opportunity

By LARRY PETERSON I played at UCLA against CNA senior feature writer lpeterson@crestonnews.com

David Kragel has built a career coaching women’s basketball in the shadow of a giant.

Walters State Community College is in Morristown, Tennesse, just an hour’s drive east of Thompson-Boling Arena on the campus of the University of Tennessee — eight-time national champion of women’s NCAA Division I basketball, with 15 title game appearances.

Yet, the Corning native and Southwestern Community College All-American player has coached the Walters State Lady Senators to elite status in women’s junior college basketball, finishing in the top eight four times in 13 national tournament berths.

On Wednesday night, upon being inducted into the SWCC Athletic Hall of Fame, Kragel praised the role his two years at Southwestern played in his life, and alluded that it was the reason he has remained at the same community college his entire coaching career.

Kragel went on to play at the Division I level at Oklahoma State, where he said he had some memorable experiences, but nothing approached the foundation of life skills he gained as a Southwestern student living in Creston.

“This is the best place that I’ve ever been,” Kragel said.

“I played in great venues, against legendary coaches.

John Wooden. I played at Kansas.”

Then he turned to face the Southwestern volleyball players who were waiting to play Iowa Lakes in a home match Wednesday night.

“I repeat, this is the best place that I’ve ever been,” he told them. “Now, for you players here, I want you to know something. You can get something from this school if you work hard enough.

Sweet home sweep for Diagonal volleyball Thursday over O-M n Maroons within one match win of 2015 victory total

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

DIAGONAL — The Diagonal Maroons volleyball team sure seems set out to prove that they are a clear and large step above where they were as a team in 2015.

Winning three set sets by broad margins over Orient-Macksburg Thursday in Diagonal Gym demonstrated as much.

The Maroons (3-1, 2-1) defeated the Bulldogs (0-4, 0-4), by scores of 25-11, 2516 and 25-17.

“I thought this game was some of our best volleyball,” Diagonal coach Mallory Grandfield said.

Bearcats roll in second half, win at home 41-7 Bevins has a sack, four QB hurries n

By LARRY PETERSON CNA senior feature writer lpeterson@crestonnews.com

MARYVILLE, MO — No. 1-ranked Northwest Missouri State outscored Washburn 24-0 in the second half to pull away for a 41-7 in the Bearcats’ home opener Thursday night.

Quarterback Kyle Zimmerman was 23-of-37 passing for 212 yards and three touchdowns for the defending Division II national champions, including a 40-yard connection with running back Jordan Grove of ADM (Adel) in the first quarter to give the Bearcats a 17-0 lead.

But a relatively stale second quarter sent the teams into halftime with just a 17-7 margin.

Sustained offensive drives allowed for a fresh defense on the field and for domination in the second half by

Fans keep Iowa and Iowa State rivalry friendly, enjoy camaraderie of matchup MOUNT AYR — Across the state of Iowa this week, there’s divided loyalties.

Friends and neighbors cheer for one or the other when it comes to rooting for Iowa or Iowa State.

Then there’s places where the rivalry takes on an added dimension — where fathers and sons, mothers and daughters take sides.

Or in the case of the Parrish’s of rural Diagonal, their marriage has the element of one being a Hawkeyes fan and the other being a Cyclones fan.

For Lincoln and Shawna Parrish, their loyalties are split this week.

Shawna’s the Hawkeyes fan. She was proudly wearing her Iowa gear when WHO-TV’s RVTV made a stop in Mount Ayr Tuesday night.

Sitting right next to her in the bleachers on the south side of the square was Lincoln, proudly donning his cardinal and gold of Iowa State.

Both admit they’ve been life-long fans of their respective teams.

“It’s great being an Iowa fan,” Shawna Parrish said.

“I’ve been a Cyclone fan all my life,” Lincoln Parrish said.

At times during rivalry week, the conversations are a bit subdued at their house.

“We don’t talk much this week,” Lincoln Parrish said.

Rivalry week makes for fun banter in their house.

“It’s back-and-forth,” Lincoln Parrish said.

They keep the mood light-hearted when it comes to Cy-Hawk week.

“It’s a lot of fun,” Shawna Parrish said. “It’s a great rivalry and usually a great game.”

Rivalry week extends throughout the state, to offices.

Ringg o l d County Kronberg’s Health korner e m Ryan Kronberg ployees sport editor Becky Hunter and Grace Warin donned opposite outfits for RVTV’s visit. Warin was wearing cardinal and gold for Iowa State, while Hunter was wearing black and gold for Iowa.

Hunter used to live in Iowa City, and her children graduated from Iowa City West High School. She’s been to games at Kinnick Stadium before.

Warin has three granddaughters at Iowa State and a fourth just graduated from there this past spring.

Both take the rivalry in stride.

“It doesn’t matter who wins,” Hunter said.

The two shared friendly banter back and forth.

“There’s friendly arguments, friendly making fun of someone,” Warin said.

Both appreciate that the game means something to people in Iowa and beyond.

“Iowa’s not a very big state, but both teams are known nationally,” Warin said.

Ron Lamphair and his wife Martha were sitting outside of the Princess Theater.

Both are longtime Iowa State fans, their children having graduated from there. Their son played football in Ames, while their daughter was in the marching band for all four years.

Even though the Hawkeyes are the opponent this week, they keep the rivalry fun.

“We love the camaraderie, the people,” Ron Lamphair said.

Having RVTV stop in

Mount Ayr was just the most recent occasion for people in the Ringgold County community to come together. Mount Ayr was a pass through town in RAGBRAI also this summer.

“It brings attention to our community, which we really like.”

The friendly nature of the Iowa and Iowa State rivalry is what makes it so enjoyable according to WHO-TV sports director Keith Murphy.

“It’s friendly and it’s fun,” Murphy said. “It’s like what it is — it’s escapism.”

“Most everybody in the state picks a side, Iowa or Iowa State,” he said. “I know of many examples of people who are married and on different sides of

Cardinals volleyball flies past Tigers CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

LEON — The first two games nearly went Lenox’s way during Thursday’s Pride of Iowa Conference match at Central Decatur.

The Cardinals made a defensive adjustment, then turned their potent hitters loose to sweep the Tigers 25-20, 25-23 and 25-15.

Lenox was in each of the first two games. In the first game, they fell behind 1914, but cut it to 20-18 before Central Decatur pulled away.

In the second game, Lenox scored four straight poitns to take a 14-10 lead.

Central Decatur edged back in front 18-17. The Tigers scored two straight points late to tie the game at 23-23.

But Central Decatur picked up two kills from Jentri Hullinger to take the game.

“We fought back in game

DIAGONAL: CONT. FROM | 6A

“Energy-wise we kept it up the whole game.”

Grandfield was particularly happy with the serving of Kasydi Klommhaus and Allison Norris.

“Allison’s serving and Kasydi’s serving really carried us tonight. They had quite a few aces,” Grandfield said.

The Maroons went 55of-67 on serves with Klommhaus converting on 14-of16 and Norris putting in play 13-of-16. The two combined for 15 aces. Jaci Haidsiak went a perfect 12-of-12 on serves She did note that serving was something that was a definite area of needed improvement for other players on the team.

The Maroons kept careless errors to a minimum and forced Orient-Macksburg into tough spots in numerous short rallies.

Klommahus served after the Maroons took a point to tie the third set at 9-9. The Maroons collected the next six points and put the match away.

Several Emily Newton kills helped end the match.

You’re going to see a lot of growth out of them each meet.”

“Our confidence has grown quite a bit.”

The course at Spring Lake Park suited the Panther runners well.

“They thought this was a fun course to run,” Schlapia said. “It wasn’t on the hilly side by any means. That’s one way to enjoy it.”

Creston’s girls placed fourth as a team with 121 points. Denison-Schleswig won with 30 points.

Winterset’s boys won with 55 points. Creston was seventh with 180 points.

UP NEXT — Creston’s girls and boys teams are back on the course Monday at the Ballard, Huxley meet. Race time is set for 4:30 p.m. at the Ballard Golf & Country Club.

“Monday’s a big one at Ballard, Huxley,” Schlapia said. “It’s almost like a mini state meet. There’s a lot of state-ranked teams from central Iowa on a nice course at Huxley. We’ll still run everybody together. It will be interesting to see what we have in front of us. It will be a good test for us.”

one,” said Lenox coach Sara Dukes. “We got ourselves in a couple little holes. The girls fought back. It was nice to see.”

Lenox tipped the ball effectively over the net into spots where Central Decatur was not.

“In sets one and two, they scored five or six points on tips to that left side,” said Central Decatur coach Joni Readout.

Winning the second game set the tone for the Cardinals in the third.

“We were happy with our perseverance,” Readout said. “Even though we did get down, we pulled it out.”

Central Decatur’s defense adjusted to Lenox’s tips in the third game, shutting down that part of the Tigers attack.

At the same time, the Cardinals hitters began finding the hardwood on a regular basis.

Raegan Booth finished

“Emily Newton has really improved on her hitting,” Grandfield said. “The last couple of games, she’s been doing really well.”

Cassie Lohmann led the Maroons with 12 assists.

Norris, Newton and Katie Sobotka each had four kills to combine for the team lead.

Orient-Macksburg co-coaches Katie Geidel and Teresa Thompson maintained optimism afterward for a number of reasons.

“Every night I think they’re feeling a little more comfortable with each other, a little more confident,” Thompson said.

A competitive junior varsity contest before the varsity match, coupled with some satisfactory performances from the JV thus far this season, had both coaches pleased.

“It has been fun to watch the JV games,” Geidel said.

Geidel will miss likely miss the next several matches as she is due to give birth within a few days.

The Bulldog coaches both looked forward to their early October rematch.

“It’ll be fun to see them again here down the road in a next couple weeks and the last couple years we’ve met up with them a couple times in the conference tourna-

with 18 kills, to go with 10 digs. Hullinger had 10 kills, eight digs and was 20-for-20 serving with three aces. Lily Simon distributed 42 assists.

Emma Atwood had 12 digs.

“We had some great kills,” Readout said.

Serving also picked up for Central Decatur in the third set.

“We have to make sure we keep our serves up,” Readout said.

For Lenox, Jacy Stoaks had eight kills to lead the attack. Katelyn Belding had 10 assists, 12 digs and was 13-for-13 serving with five aces. Shantelle Brown had 11 digs and was 8-of-9 serving. Hannah Davis had seven digs and was 11-of-12 serving with three aces.

Outdoor news: youth deer season to start Sept. 17

By IOWA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES

Iowa’s youth deer season begins September 17 The Iowa deer hunting tradition will be passed on to about 10,000 youths who are participating in the youth deer hunting season, which opens on Sept. 17. This season provides an opportunity to teach deer hunting, wildlife behavior, and safe hunting practices to resident youths while they are under the watchful eye of a licensed adult.

For many young hunters, this will be their first experience hunting deer, and mentors are encouraged to take the needs of the new hunter into account when planning the hunt.

The goal of the hunt should be a positive, enjoyable, and ethical experience, and harvesting a deer should be considered a bonus, not define the success of the hunt.

The youth season coincides with the disabled hunter deer season for hunters who meet certain criteria.

Each season runs September 17 through October 2.

Each youth must be under direct supervision of an adult mentor, with a valid license and habitat fee (if required). The youth license is valid statewide.

An unfilled youth season tag may be used during the early or late muzzleloader season or one of the two shotgun seasons only. That youth must follow all other rules specified for each season. However party hunting with a youth tag is not allowed. A deer must be harvested by the youth with the tag. However, that tag holder may obtain deer tags for other season, just as any other hunter can do.

The youth deer season usually has mild temperatures and biting insects.

Hunters should be prepared in case they youth harvests a deer by bringing bags of ice to cool the deer cavity and by having a locker that can accept the deer for processing.

All deer taken must be reported using the harvest reporting system by midnight the day after the deer is recovered. Harvest reporting is a very important part of the deer management program in Iowa, playing a vital role in managing deer populations and hunting opportunities. Hunters can report their deer on the DNR website at www.iowadnr.gov, by calling the toll free reporting number 1-800-771-4692, or at any license vendor.

Tree stand safety focus of awareness campaign

KRAGEL: CONT. FROM | 6A

Kragel to enroll at SWCC. “My team who I played with, you blew me away tonight,” Kragel said. “It’s unbelievable that you guys would come to be here.

Coach (Percy) Stielow, you are one of the reasons I’m where I’m at today. Fox (Clinton), you’re great.

There are so many people who helped me to be where I’m at Ron and (the late) Jo Levine, I got to live with them for a year. They were wonderful.”

The Levines’ son, Kirk, who died of cancer in late 2015, was a teammate and close friend of Kragel’s. Former teammate Gary Pennebaker also died in 2014.

They were on Kragel’s mind Wednesday night.

“I also want to talk about people who couldn’t be here,” Kragel said. “Kirk Levine was best man in my

A campaign is underway by tree stand manufacturers, retailers, media, natural resource agencies and deer hunters to reduce and eliminate tree stand accidents by raising awareness of this issue and providing education about safe tree stand hunting best practices.

Falls from tree stands are annually the number one cause of death and serious injury to deer hunters and involve all types of stands.

Nearly all of these incidents are preventable by implementing three simple measures: First, inspect your equipment. Second, wear a full-body harness and third, stay connected from the time your feet leave the ground.

It really is that simple.

Tree stand accidents can happen to deer hunters of all skill levels and result in serious injury or death. In Iowa last year, there were three tree stand incidentstwo resulted in injury and one in death.

Since September is traditionally a busy time for deer hunters who are preparing for the upcoming hunting season; it has been chosen as Tree Stand Safety Awareness Month.

To help prevent injuries, the Iowa DNR is offering the following safety tips: • Always wear a safety harness, also known as a fall arrest system (FAS), when you are in a tree stand, as well as when climbing into or out of a tree stand.

• A safety strap should be attached to the tree to prevent you from falling more than 12 inches.

• Always inspect the safety harness for signs of wear or damage before each use.

• Follow all manufactures’ instructions for use of a safety harness and stand.

• Follow the three point rule of tree stand safety.

Always have three points of contact to the steps or ladder before moving.

This could be two arms and one leg holding and stepping on the ladder or one arm and two legs in contact with the ladder before moving.

Be cautious that rain, frost, ice, or snow can cause steps to become extremely slippery. Check the security of the step before placing your weight on it.

• Always hunt with a plan and if possible a buddy. Before you leave home, let others know your exact hunting location, when you plan to return and who is with you.

• Always carry emergency signal devices such as a cell phone, walkie-talkie, whistle, signal flare, personal locator device and flashlight on your person at all times and within reach even while you are suspended in your FAS. wedding. His family helped me. Gary Pennebaker taught me how to play here at Southwestern. He was 6-5, a Green Beret who came back from Vietnam, and every day in practice he literally beat the living crap out of me. It helped me become the player I was. And I see Sandy Harris here. Her (late) husband Dan was a great friend of mine.”

Kragel told his wife, Creston native Sharlene (Sears) Kragel, that he has no immediate plans to retire at age 62. But, he knows where he will be working when he does call it a career.

“Southwestern meant so much to me,” he explained, “and it’s the main reason I’ve stayed at the community college I’ve been at for the last 40 years. I will retire from there, when I retire.

“I love what I’m doing.

Every day I go to work and enjoy what I do,” he said.

“Thank you all for everything.”

Sefrit reported that State E911 offered Trail at to Mormon attend a meeting to Bedford explain the grant Murray process with at theEast new Union legislation. DuckWayne at Lenox worth was concerned about the bill that is on the Governor's desk regarding E911 funds.

6:30April p.m., On 13 BTN Sefrit attended the State E911 meeting. Most of the discussion was on the State funding and legislative action.

It appears the disbursement of 60% of the funds to PSAPs may survive. Depending on ending balances, there may be money left over that would be divided among the PSAPs. Until the Legislature and Governor come to agreement it is unknown what will transpire.

On April 14 Sefrit attended the Iowa NENA meeting. She reviewed what transpired at the meeting including the possibility of hiring a lobbyist. She had a Mediacom conference call April 19 with them still feeling the problems were with PSAP equipment. Intrado is also not getting things done properly and the matter is being looked into by Intrado.

Cochran indicated Mediacom and Intrado have guidelines they are trying to use for providing data but they don't comply with standard industry protocol. So it prevents Racom from being able to have the data provided in the proper format. This is something that will be worked on.

Cochran urged PSAPs to do weekly restarts of the system. Text 911 will be delayed into July and there will be a cost to SCI for this.

Sefrit presented two more grants: Madison Co. for approx. $20,000 for ShieldWare. Motion by Duckworth to approve the Madison Co. grant application.

Second by Russell. All ayes.

Adams Co. for approx. $14,000 to upgrade the dispatch center for protection.

Motion by Jackson to approve the Adams Co. grant application. Second by Welch.

All ayes.

Denton read a letter from State Sen. Danielson. He felt E911 agencies should go along with the plan to use some money for the State radio system. The PSAPs were getting an increase of funding from the 47% to 60% so they should be satisfied with that. He felt there would be $4,000,000 more available. Duckworth felt that if this year's funds that the Legislature wants to take sets the precedent for lots of other agencies to start trying to get E911 funds.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:10 p.m.

Creston News Advertiser | Friday, September 9, 2016

Since Aug. 26, Kerry and Lavrov have now met twice each in Geneva and in China on the sidelines of a global economic summit.

They’ve held a flurry of phone calls in recent days.

Both governments had said they were close to a package that would go beyond several previous truces between the Syrian government and armed opposition — all of which failed to hold. For Kerry, securing a sustainable peace in Syria has become his biggest objective as America’s top diplomat since last summer’s Iran nuclear deal.

In addition to those killed, Syria’s conflict has chased millions of people from their homes, contributing to Europe’s worst refugee crisis since World War II. Amid the chaos of fighting between Syria’s government and rebels, the Islamic State group has emerged as a global terror threat.

Russia’s military intervention last year has shored up Assad’s position. Although Russia claims to be targeting IS and the Nusra Front, al-Qaida’s Syria affiliate, the Obama administration says the majority of its air strikes have hit “moderate� rebels backed by the United States and its Arab partners. Russia has been keen to unify its counterterror campaign with that of the United States, but up to now Washington has held back.

Kerry’s offer includes intelligence sharing and joint targeting coordination. In exchange for getting Assad’s air forces out of the skies, the U.S. and Russia would work together to identify acceptable targets and then approve strikes. The idea of such cooperation, however, has prompted significant skepticism from powerful members of the U.S. national security establishment in Washington.

In a speech this week in Britain, U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter accused Russia of sowing seeds of global instability and questioned whether Moscow genuinely wants a viable cease-fire in Syria. Russia’s support for Assad, he said, “has made the situation in Syria more dangerous, more prolonged and more violent.�

U.S. National Intelligence Director James Clapper has been another vocal opponent of any enhanced U.S.-Russian coordination.

Perhaps reflecting these divisions, State Department spokesman Mark Toner said Thursday that internal U.S. discussions also were continuing.

Iowa businessman proposes dock, ferry on Des Moines River DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa businessman says he wants to build a dock on the Des Moines River from which he would offer ferry rides.

Michael LaValle’s plan calls for having the dock, which he would call the Port of Des Moines, attached to the recently completed Principal Riverwalk and would feature a cafe, The Des Moines Register reports.

LaValle envisions a 50seat boat that could carry passengers for architecture and history tours, as well as school field trips. There would also be smaller excursion boats. He says he doesn’t know how much the project would cost, but he already has material for the dock.

LaValle plans to present his project to city leaders and other officials on Friday. He said he already has a condi-

tional letter of permission from the U.S. Corp of Engineers, and has received approval from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. “Now, I think politicians look around and say: ‘Oh, people care about the river,’� he said. “Everyone feels it is time to do something.�

The project would need approval from city engineers, the Plan and Zoning Commission and the City Council.

LaValle, who owns several hospitality businesses in Des Moines, said he doesn’t know if the dock would operate as a business or a nonprofit. “I think the hard part will be getting people to take it seriously because it will just be so far out of left field, it will be hard to get their heads around it,� he said. “But every other river city in the country has been able to figure it out.�

GENEVA (AP) — American officials played down hopes Friday of an imminent cease-fire agreement for Syria as U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry held a fourth set of negotiations with his Russian counterpart in the past two weeks. Previously, officials suggested Kerry wouldn’t travel to Geneva unless a deal was clearly at hand.

The talks between Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov aim to produce a nationwide ceasefire in Syria after more than five years of warfare and as many as 500,000 deaths.

A deal hinges on an unlikely U.S.-Russian military partnership that would come into force if Moscow can pressure its ally, Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government, to halt offensive operations. Washington would have to persuade the anti-Assad rebels it supports to end any coordination with al-Qaida and other extremist groups.

Neither side has succeeded in doing its part despite months of diplomacy. And the task may be getting even more difficult as fighting rages around the divided city of Aleppo, Syria’s most populous and the new focus of the conflict.

Assad’s government appeared to tighten its siege of the former Syrian commercial hub on Thursday, following several gains over the weekend. Forty days of fighting in Aleppo has killed nearly 700 civilians, including 160 children, according to a Syrian human rights group. Volunteer first-responders said they pulled the bodies of nine people, including four children, from the rubble following air raids on a rebel-held area, after reports of helicopters dropping crude barrel bombs over the area on Friday.

The U.S. officials accompanying Kerry to Geneva said they couldn’t guarantee an agreement Friday and more talks may be needed.

Aleppo will be a large part of the day’s discussions, they said, along with the technical details of a cease-fire, defining everything from how far back from demilitarized areas combatants would have to stay to the types of weapons they would need to withdraw from front lines.

The officials briefed reporters traveling on Kerry’s plane on condition they not be quoted by name.

Kerry and Lavrov held at least three sessions of discussions Friday in Geneva.

It was unclear how long the talks would go on.

ELK POINT, S.D. (AP) — A college student from Iowa who is presumed drowned in the Missouri River in South Dakota was trying to help others when he went missing.

Twenty-three-year-old Tom Patterson, of Frostburg, Maryland, was swimming with friends Sunday afternoon southwest of Elk Point when he disappeared.

Union County Sheriff Dan Limoges says new information from a witness indicates Patterson was trying to help other swimmers back to shore when he was swept away by the current.

Authorities are continuing to search for a body.

Patterson had been attending classes at Briar Cliff University in Sioux City, Iowa.
