Metallica lights up Newton

Rock legends’ Iowa Speedway show benefits the Native Fund

By Justin Jagler Newton Daily News “Tonight, we’re all Iowans,” said metal legend James Hetfield to tens of thousands of screaming Metallica fans at the band’s Iowa Speedway concert Friday night.

All proceeds from the massive spectacle in little Newton benefited the Native Fund, which provides assistance to Iowans in their times of need. Hetfield said the band was glad to be here

to support a good cause.

Metallica didn’t delve too deep into heart-warming speeches, however. The band was in Newton to rock, and it delivered supremely.

The band ripped through a searing setlist, featuring songs off their latest album “Hardwired … to Self-Destruct” and many older fan favorites.

The instrumentals were precise. Lead guitarist Kirk Hammett’s fingers moved like

lightning across the fretboard. Bassist Robert Trujillo delivered the low end with attitude and enthusiasm.

Drummer Lars Ulrich’s no-nonsense drumming style kept up through the more than two-hour set.

Hetfield’s vocals were undeniable. In his world-famous growl, he gave shout-outs to Newton mid-song on multiple occasions. One METALLICA | 3A

Unforgettable Newton Fest 2017

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News The 2017 edition of Newton Fest is not one that will soon be forgotten. From new events including the Kick-off Party and Joe’s Old Fashioned Fun Carnival to favorites such as the Bill Riley Talent Show and Backyard Barbecue Competition, not to mention a little concert featuring world-famous Metallica, Newton Fest 2017 was a jam-packed weekend of fun and entertainment.

“Things have gone really great with Newton Fest, I have heard a lot of positive comments,” Newton Fest Committee Chair Jessica Lowe said. “People really like some of the things we have added including the change to DMACC Campus which allows things to be closer together.”

Quarry Springs rocks on in Colfax despite heat, competing events

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News COLFAX — When the nonprofit Colfax Park and Recreation Auxiliary Board set the date for Saturday’s Rock the Quarry concert, organizers thought they’d hit the jackpot — a late spring date with little competition from Newton or Des Moines events.

But the calender quickly began to be filled with Newton Fest, a surprise concert by Metallica in Newton the night before, Winefest and Faith Hill and Tim McGraw in Des Moines.

Couple that with a 95 degree evening, and the second annual Quarry Springs Park concert fundraiser held its own.

Before the opening act — Iowa rock-blues band Big Bad

Wolf — took the stage at 6 p.m., park and rec auxiliary promotions and marketing chair Patrick Utz said volunteers had 150 pre-sale tickets at $10 a piece for Saturday’s Rock the Quarry.

“We didn’t sell quite as many pre-sale tickets as last year, so we weren’t sure what kind of crowd we would get. But I’d say we’re getting there as far as what wanted,” he said.

Combined with ticket sales at the gate, the crowd gathered at the 480-acre park off Interstate 80 in Colfax did hit the 150 mark. A final fundraising total was not available by presstime Monday.

But the big change this year, Utz said, is sponsorship. Businesses is Colfax, Prairie City and Quarry | 8A

A 20-year-old Kellogg resident was killed in a two-vehicle accident in Poweshiek County Thursday night. Riley J. Ely was reported dead on arrival by the Iowa State Patrol at an accident that also involved Kyle A. Sadler, 20, of Grinnell at 10:51 p.m. on 120th Street near Malcom.

According to the state patrol, the vehicles were traveling southbound on 120th Street, and for an unknown reason, Sadler’s Chevrolet Silverado truck hit the rear of Ely’s Ford Mustang causing it to go into the ditch, roll and catch fire. Ely, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle.

Sadler was transported to Grinnell Regional Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The accident remains under investigation by the Iowa State Patrol. The Poweshiek County Sheriff and Malcom Fire Department also assisted on the accident.

Central Iowa Today Today in History

Today is Monday, June 12, the 163rd day of 2017. There are 202 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On June 12, 1967, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Loving v. Virginia, unanimously struck down state laws prohibiting interracial marriages.

On this date: In 1776, Virginia’s colonial legislature adopted a Declaration of Rights.

In 1942, Anne Frank, a German-born Jewish girl living in Amsterdam, received a diary for her 13th birthday, less than a month before she and her family went into hiding from the Nazis.

In 1963, civil rights leader Medgar Evers, 37, was shot and killed outside his home in Jackson, Mississippi. (In 1994, Byron De La Beckwith was convicted of murdering Evers and sentenced to life in prison; he died in 2001.)

In 1967, the James Bond film “You Only Live Twice,” starring Sean Connery, premiered in London, a day before its U.S. opening.

In 1979, 26-year-old cyclist Bryan Allen flew the human-powered Gossamer Albatross across the English Channel.

In 1987, President Ronald Reagan, during a visit to the divided German city of Berlin, exhorted Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev to “tear down this wall.”

In 1997, baseball began regular-season interleague play, ending a 126-year tradition of separating the major leagues until the World Series. (In the first game played under this arrangement, the San Francisco Giants defeated the Texas Rangers 4-3.)

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush went to Capitol Hill, where he prodded rebellious Senate Republicans to help resurrect legislation that could provide eventual citizenship for millions of immigrants without legal status.

Five years ago: Attorney General Eric Holder fended off Republican demands during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that he appoint a special counsel outside of the Justice Department to look into national security leaks. Democrat Ron Barber, who almost lost his life in the Arizona shooting rampage that seriously wounded former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, won a special election to succeed her.

One year ago: An American-born Muslim opened fire at the Pulse nightclub, a gay establishment in Orlando, Florida, leaving 49 people dead and 53 wounded before being shot dead by police. The mass shooting cast a pall over that evening’s Tony Awards, where “Hamilton,” the hip-hop stage biography of Alexander Hamilton, won the 2016 prize for best new musical.

Today’s Birthdays Former President George H.W. Bush is 93. Actor-singer Jim Nabors is 87. Jazz musician Chick Corea is 76. Sportscaster Marv Albert is 76. Rock musician Bun E. Carlos (Cheap Trick) is 66. Country singer-musician Junior Brown is 65. Singer-songwriter Rocky Burnette is 64. Actor Timothy Busfield is 60. Singer Meredith Brooks is 59.

Rock musician John Linnell (They Might Be Giants) is 58. Actor Eamonn Walker is 55. Actress Paula Marshall is 53. Actress Frances O’Connor is 50. Actor Rick Hoffman is 47. Actor Mel Rodriguez is 44. Actor Michael Muhney is 42. Blues musician Kenny Wayne Shepherd is 40. Actor Timothy Simons (TV: “Veep”) is 39. Actor Wil Horneff is 38. Singer Robyn is 38. Actor Dave Franco is 32. Country singer Chris Young is 32. Actor Luke Youngblood is 31.

Rap group MC Jay Are is 28. Actor Ryan Malgarini is 25.

‘Dear Evan Hansen’ wins best musical Tony NEW YORK (AP) — “Dear Evan Hansen,” the touching, heartfelt musical about young outsiders, has won the biggest theater popularity contest — winning the best new musical trophy at the Tony Awards.

The show centers on a profoundly lonely 17-yearold who fabricates a prior friendship with a classmate who has just committed suicide. The story charts his acceptance into the young man’s grieving family and the heartbreaking truths that emerge as the deception becomes more elaborate, sped along by social media.

The acclaimed musical’s story is by Steven Levenson, with songs by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (recent Oscar winners for “City of Stars” from the movie “La La Land”). It stars Ben Platt.

Bette Midler won the best actress in a musical trophy for playing matchmaker and schemer Dolly Levi, who receives her toughest challenge yet when a rich grump seeks a suitable wife.

Metallica Continued from Page 1A might think age would take its toll on a band that formed in 1981, but Metallica still sounds larger than life in 2017.

The second half of the set featured hit after hard-rocking hit. “Sad but True,” “One,” “Master of Puppets,” “Fade to Black” and “Seek & Destroy” played in succession.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the band was loud.

Really loud. Most folks on the lawn in general admission probably left with their ears ringing.

Newton resident Jesse Iverson was enjoying Newton Fest for the first time at the carnival along with seven younger family members.

Also on Friday, the Newton Wellness Coalition debuted the Community Wellness Games on the courthouse lawn. Thirteen teams of four came together in a friendly competition testing the brain and the body.

“It was a wonderful day full of fun, competition and awareness,” organizer Terri Walker said.

The competition had teams answering trivia questions about health and wellness or fun Newton facts, arranging food by calorie count, working together in a three-legged race and showing strength in

Hard rockers from Denmark, Volbeat, were the first band to take the stage. The crowd started to get bigger as the band delivered a solid performance. Avenged Sevenfold followed with more heavy sounds and plenty of pyrotechnics.

With the sun setting on Newton Fest, opener Brother Trucker followed by featured artist Damon Dotson played to a full crowd wrapping up events for the year. Also at the DMACC Maytag Campus corridor, the concert was the perfect ending to a successful weekend.

“The corridor where we are having the music is amazing, an under utilized space in Newton. I think it is going to be a great place for other community events,” Lowe said.

A daughter’s love

In the Neighborhood Pam Rodgers

Editor’s Note: This column originally appear on Sept. 4, 2015.

Oh Susannah! Oh don’t you cry for me. For I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee.”

It’s strange the memories that stay with us. I can’t remember how it started or why, but every night when I was a young child, my father would sing my sister and I to sleep with the that old Western tune. I remember not being able to sleep until I had heard the last lines of “Oh! Susannah.”

I haven’t ever thought to ask why dad chose that song, and the reasons aren’t important. Because now whenever I hear that song, all I hear is my dad’s voice from at my bedside.

It was years ago and yet in my mind’s

“

eye it seems like yesterday. I can still hear it, and I pray that I always will.

I have been fortunate in my life to have a father who will do anything for me — for his entire family for that matter. I trust his advice in all things and appreciate his continued love and support as I navigate this thing called life.

He is not a perfect man, but he is a caring one. He’s one of most stubborn people I know; and at the same time, I haven’t met a man as sensitive as he. I can never fault him for his passion for life and his family.

My siblings and I aren’t the only ones to see his passion at work. He was a dedicated educator and coach for 31 years. He was a high school special education teacher, a job not

everyone could handle. He took pride in helping the students who needed it the most and did everything he could to help them succeed.

Even in his retirement, he continues to be connected to the teaching world as a substitute. He has done everything from elementary PE to high school biology. He doesn’t know how to do anything at half speed. It may not be his class on a daily basis, but he will give his all while he’s there.

Coaching is one of his biggest loves. Many times he’s decided to stop but another opportunity crosses his path. He now coaches junior high volleyball and junior high boys track. Like in all other things, he gives his all. He will tell me, in detail, how the girls did at their games; or how the boys ran at the meet. He sees potential in every single kid, and he will work with them to succeed.

I can’t fully comprehend the impact he has had on others. He has

been stopped by former students and players more times than I can count, and they will tell me how much he still means to them. I know exactly what they mean. He’s my dad.

My father turns 60 this month; and while it’s been a long time since I needed to have him sing me to sleep, I want him to know I still remember what it sounded like as I drifted off into slumberland. Sometimes on nights I can’t fall asleep, I wish I had a recording of it to help clear my mind of the problems of adulthood and transport me back to the innocence of youth.

One of his catchphrases is “I wouldn’t trade you for anybody or anything in the whole world.” The same could be said for me. Thank you dad for everything you have taught me and continue to teach me.

I hope you have a very special birthday.

Eye on America John Stossel

Prosperity cities Lovers of socialism didn’t like my column last week. I wrote that Venezuela’s collapse shows the cluelessness of celebrities like Michael Moore, Oliver Stone and Noam Chomsky, who’d praised Venezuela’s leader.

Chomsky called me “an utter coward” for mocking him and said he expected “an abject apology.”

He won’t get one. As Venezuelan-born filmmaker Thor Halvorssen puts it, “Chomsky provided cover for a regime where 11,500 infants died from lack of medical care.”

But assigning blame matters less than what should be done now. After the regime collapses, what comes next?

How about trying capitalism?

That’s what Erick Brimen suggests. Brimen grew up in Venezuela, then moved to America, where he started NeWAY Capital, a firm dedicated to creating what he calls “prosperity cities,” small places that create “the environment for success.”

Venezuela desperately needs that. “Last week I helped my mother escape,” writes Brimen. “The violence is getting too intense, and, in one of the most agriculturally rich countries in the world, it is ... increasingly difficult to find food.”

Capitalists like Brimen aren’t just motivated by greed. They want to rescue others from the tragedy of centrally planned economies.

“Living in Venezuela made me realize the traditional approach to politics is too often ineffective,” explains Brimen. “If successful countries, like Venezuela and Greece, can be turned into basket cases by demagogues promising things they can’t deliver, we have a systemic problem. ... (W)e must find a new approach.”

His plan: Because it’s usually impossible to convince central planners to give up power, just get them to give up a little bit of power, in one small location at a time, as an experiment.

Similar ideas have been pushed with different names — free trade zones, empowerment zones, charter cities — but I like Brimen’s term: prosperity cities.

These are small places where government leaves people mostly free to pursue their own interests. Government keeps the peace, protects people’s bodies and property, but doesn’t impose high taxes or burdensome rules.

Hong Kong is a prosperity city. It was once little more than a rock in the sea near China, but because the island was ruled by the British when Communists took over the rest of China, Hong Kong became a haven for freedom-seeking people.

The British enforced rule of law — they punished people who stole or killed. But then they did something unusual, something wonderful, something politicians rarely do: They left people alone.

By doing that, the British allowed Chinese entrepreneurs to try new things. Free people created astounding wealth. By the end of the 20th century, Hong Kong had a higher per capita income than Great Britain itself.

So we know what works: rule of law, plus economic freedom. Yet billions remain in poverty because politicians won’t allow them that freedom.

In poor countries, bureaucrats micromanage almost everything. Writes Brimen, “Resolving a dispute in Sub-Saharan Africa takes 655 days. It is no surprise Sub-Saharan Africa has remained mired in poverty.”

Today Dubai could be called a prosperity city.

Dubai is not free in all the ways I would like, but because the Dubai International Financial Centre is mostly free, it became rich in a decade.

Even the Communist Chinese experiment with free zones. “Shenzhen, for example, grew from a small fishing village to a metropolitan area with 16 million people largely because of the creation of a special economic zone.”

AMENDMENT

The unpleasant impact of an unserious budget

By Josh Hoxie

Federal budgets, while boring and wonky, can have a serious impact on our lives. They dictate our collective priorities for how we choose to spend our public resources in support of the common good.

That is, good budgets do that.

But you’d be hard-pressed to call the most recent budget from the Trump administration good.

To be clear, it’s hard to even refer to this budget as serious. Sure, it’s written in official-looking thick blue books, and it outlines spending figures using precise numbers.

But that’s about where the formality ends.

Tucked into the formal budget is a set of assumptions that present a fantastical approach to simple arithmetic.

Take the estate tax for just one example, also known as the inheritance tax. The estate tax is a pretty straightforward idea: a levy on the inter-generational transfer of immense wealth that only the very wealthy pay. It’s been on the books for about 100 years.

If left untouched, it will generate an estimated $174 billion over the next 10 years, precisely $0 of which will come from anyone who

could reasonably be considered middle class.

The Trump budget proposes to eliminate the federal estate tax.

Trump’s own family stands to benefit enormously from this gift to the wealthiest households.

The budget also proposes to dramatically cut federal student loan programs by about $143 billion. Notably, the Public Student Loan Forgiveness program is eliminated, a program that hundreds of thousands of graduates signed up for expecting their student loans to be eliminated after 10 years of service in the public sector.

Trading a massive tax cut for the ultra-wealthy in exchange for massive cuts to programs that help young people go to college is bad enough. But then there’s the math.

The Trump budget, despite proposing to eliminate the estate tax, still counts the estate tax revenue as part of its revenue projection. In fact, the administration expects estate tax revenue to top $300 billion, nearly double the normal projection. This lie is critical to their absurd claim that their budget will balance.

News flash: If you cut taxes, it means you don’t get the revenue from said taxes.

The estate tax double-count is just one of the many mystical components of their mathematical menagerie.

A poll of top-tier economists by the University of Chicago (which has among the most conservative econ departments in the country) found practically unanimous agreement that there’s no way the budget will balance. The administration’s assumptions are just too far-fetched — no matter how many times you spin in a circle, squint, and pray that the numbers on the page change.

Unfortunately, while the administration’s struggle with basic arithmetic can be amusing, the potential impact of this budget is far from humorous.

It will mean millions of families pushed off their health coverage, millions of mothers blocked from receiving nutritional assistance for their babies, and millions more families in our northern states forced to choose between heating their house and affording their groceries.

Long-time Rep. Barbara Lee of California put it well: “I have never seen a budget so devoid of compassion and empathy for families struggling to make ends meet,” she observed.

both economically and culturally.

There where Prime ministers from Greece, Viktor, Hunguy,Check President Zeman, President Moreno from Ibero America, Duterto from Philippines, Kenyan President from Africa and Matthew Pottinger from the U.S. who is a representative for President Trump and invited China to attend the “select USA

investment Summit,” on June 18-20 in Washington, D.C. to include China in investment opportunities in the United States.

How is that to put a spark of Glee in your Bonet for a change?

All being financed by China Investment that is U.S. debt to China. Just about as good as gifts from Santa on Christmas!

Family visiting for graduation brings grandma with dementia DEAR ABBY: My ex-husband is coming to our small town to celebrate our daughter’s graduation. He is bringing along his parents. I’m happy they are coming to show love and support for our daughter; however, his mother has dementia.

She’s difficult to deal with now, and my ex doesn’t manage the situation well. They take her to restaurants and hotels and allow very uncomfortable scenes to play out — like sending food back (every single time) or allowing her to accuse the housekeeping staff of thievery. Rather than rationally deal with the problem themselves, they put the staff in a very awkward position.

The poor woman has a mental condition. It isn’t a secret to the rest of us.

I have figured out techniques to deal with her. I am going to cook some meals for them while they are here, but based on my work schedule, that’s all I can do. Should I call ahead to the hotel and restaurants to warn them of the impending storm? — HURRICANE INSANITY DEAR H.I.: If you are known at the restaurants, you should definitely call ahead and speak to the manager about the fact that the poor woman is “not well.” I’m sure it would be appreciated, and perhaps the party can be seated in a private area of the restaurant.

When someone has dementia, there comes a point where they should be kept in familiar surroundings to avoid situations in which the person can become agitated. This may be what’s happening with your ex-mother-in-law when she finds herself in an environment she’s not used to.

The Alzheimer’s Association hosts support groups for caregivers and for families with loved ones who have dementia. In these groups, coping techniques are discussed. Your ex might benefit by reaching out, preferably

before he and his mother make the trip. He can contact the association at www.alz.org or by calling the 24/7 helpline at 1-800-272-3900.

DEAR ABBY: You know the adage, “You don’t know what you’ve got ‘til you lose it”? In 2009, before I was deployed to Kuwait, I was in a short relationship with “Donna.” Because I didn’t want her to worry about me while I was gone, I ended it and broke her heart. (Big mistake.) When I came home, Donna had moved away, and I lost her phone number when my old phone broke. Since then, I have not been in any relationships, and not a day goes by that I don’t think about and miss her and the inside jokes we had together. Lately, it has gotten worse.

I know Donna’s sister still lives here.

Should I go and ask her about Donna, and how she’s doing and where she is now, and whether she’ll contact her for me? Or should I just keep trying to get over her? — REGRETTING IT IN THE WEST DEAR REGRETTING: What are you waiting for? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. By all means, talk to Donna’s sister, who might enjoy being able to play the role of Cupid. If Donna is still single and available, she may be as glad to see you as you will be to see her.

Man guilty of 2nd-degree murder in roommate’s slaying OTTUMWA — A 25-year-old Wapello County man has been convicted of second-degree murder in the slaying of his roommate.

Davila faces 50 years in prison at sentencing.

Iowa man sentenced to 25 years in prison for fatal crash DES MOINES — A Des Moines man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for causing a crash that killed his friend and injured two others.

Twenty-four-year-old Dylan Steven Eric Winker was sentenced Thursday. He had pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide while intoxicated and serious injury by vehicle.

Authorities release name of Iowa man shot by officer NORTH ENGLISH — Authorities have released the name of a man fatally shot by an officer in eastern Iowa’s Iowa County.

The Iowa County Sheriff ’s Office identified the man as 53-year-old Robin Blaylock, who lived in North English. An autopsy has been ordered.

The office had reported that its deputies and Williamsburg Police were called around 8:30 p.m. Saturday for a domestic disturbance involving a gun at a house in North English, which sits about 35 miles (56 kilometers) southwest of Iowa City.

5 Fire damages building at U of Iowa; no injuries reported

Trump’s budget would cost Iowa $100M in federal funds

DES MOINES (AP) — A fiscal analysis shows federal grant funding to Iowa would drop by more than $100 million under President Donald Trump’s proposed budget, a move that would force the state to reduce services or find other funding for programs ranging from early educaTrump tion to job training.

The documents posted this month by the nonpartisan Legislative Services Agency offer the first details about what Trump’s proposed federal budget could mean for Iowa. The LSA analysis doesn’t cover all aspects of Trump’s proposal, which seeks big reductions in many domestic programs, but it highlights what the plan would mean for some high-profile state services.

Several of Trump’s proposed cuts would hit programs that Gov. Kim Reynolds has made priorities, including adult and youth job training and boosting technology in K-12 classrooms.

Any federal spending reductions would come at a time the state has repeatedly dealt with funding problems, leading to two budget shortfalls in the past year and possibly a third later this month.

Brenna Smith, a spokeswoman for Reynolds, noted Trump’s budget is only a proposal and expressed understanding at the need to reduce federal spending.

“We know as a country that something must be done to address the federal debt,” Smith said. “This is a very initial draft budget that will go through many changes, and we look forward to working with our federal partners to ensure our priorities are met.”

Congressional leaders have said many of Trump’s proposals are non-starters, but Joshua Huder, a political analyst at the Georgetown Government Affairs Institute, said they provide an indication of Trump’s priorities.

“These are broad outlines of his ideas, and they will play some role in the budgeting process,” Huder said. “But all of this is really just a point paper.”

Among Trump’s plans are to eliminate a popular Department of Energy home weatherization program, which in the current federal fiscal year provided about $4.8 million for energy efficiency projects in low-income Iowa houses.

Bill Brand, the division administrator for the Community Action Agencies that oversee the projects, said the program has proven valuable and typically received bipartisan congressional support.

“These budget times are very uncertain. It cannot be assumed that funding is going to be continued,” Brand said. “The federal budget is going to be tight, and there’s a lot of competition for funds.”

Trump has sought elimination of the Community Development Block Grant program, a move that would end funding that this year totaled about $11.5 million.

The money funds city revitalization and water initiatives through the Iowa Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Tim Waddell, a community development division administrator for the Iowa Economic Development Authority, said the proposed end to the 43-year-old program could cause rates to increase for some small cities that would lose federal help for system upgrades.

“Small cities particularly depend on it,” Waddell said. “When

you lose a revenue source that means the burden goes back to the individuals that are supporting the system.”

A roughly $2.4 million grant to integrate classroom technology to promote well-rounded K-12 education is proposed for elimination, as well as a grant for Iowa teacher training. Last year, the grant for teacher advancement provided Iowa schools $17 million to support educational strategies.

“We understand this is the beginning of a process, and we will be monitoring what happens from here,” said Staci Hupp, an Iowa Department of Education spokeswoman.

Within the Iowa Department of Human Services, Trump has proposed eliminating a Social Services Block Grant, which funded case management and child welfare services in the current budget year, according to DHS budget documents. The services focus on the safety of children in foster care and adoption.

The proposed elimination comes amid criticism that child welfare case workers in Iowa are overloaded and working without enough resources. DHS announced last week it will allow an outside nonprofit to review the department’s resources and recent cases.

Amy McCoy, a spokeswoman for DHS, said the agency is monitoring the proposed federal spending cuts.

Huder said it would take time before states had more clarity about federal spending, as Congress began writing and approving budgets.

“Congress has the power of the purse,” Huder said. They’re the ones that actually decide whether they want to follow the president’s request.”

Iowa teen graduates 2 days before death from cancer DUBUQUE (AP) — Family, teachers and friends are remembering an eastern Iowa teen who reached her goal last week of graduating from high school — just two days before she died after a months-long battle with cancer.

Allison Cress, 18, graduated from Hempstead High School in Dubuque on June 3.

The feat came after she was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, in September a little more than two weeks after starting her senior year.

The cancer had spread, and she underwent chemotherapy and had an affected leg amputated. When the chemotherapy didn’t work, she enrolled in a clinical trial, which failed to stop the cancer.

She was able to spend only three or four weeks in class during the school year, but worked with a tutor and taught herself, determined to reach her graduation date.

On Monday, she died at home in Asbury, Iowa, surrounded by her family.

Sioux City to paint water tank with nod to hit 1940s song SIOUX CITY (AP) — A fresh paint job on a prominent Sioux City water storage tank will pay homage to a hit 1940s song that features the city in its title.

The city plans to decorate the Singing Hills water tank with the city’s name and notes from “Sioux City Sue,” the 1945 tune by Dick Thomas and Ray Freedman,.

The tank, one of eight water storage facilities in Sioux City, sits atop a hill in Sertoma Park, where it is noticeable from Interstate 29, the Highway 75 bypass, Cone Park and Southern Hills Mall.

It hasn’t been repainted since its construction in the mid-1990s and would be the first to sport a city-funded painting design.

“There are water towers all over the United States, and there are always the ones that you remember where they’re at. That’s what I wanted it to be,” said Councilwoman Rhonda Capron, who came up with the idea.

Quarry Continued from Page 1A Des Moines stepped up for the 2017 Rock the Quarry series, and that money was used to book the bands and provide the stage, so any revenue in ticket sales and 50/50 raffle can be put right back into the park.

Beyond food and beverages from Colfax restaurants Cocina Hernandez, The Thirsty Turtle and Georgioz Pizza, the Colfax-Mingo Music Booster also provided popcorn and snacks at Saturday’s concert by request of 2016 concert attendees.

Utz said one reason organizers anticipate a built-in fan base is Rock the Quarry fills a spot left vacant by the cancellation of the annual Music in the Park concert series put on by Colfax Main Street.

In 2017, Rock the Quarry also boosted the bill from two to four bands. Saturday featured Big Bad Wolf, Dogfathers and Nate Butler and the Geezers.

The fourth band was a returning group from last year’s Rock the Quarry, the Des Moines teen trio formerly known as Lux. The group presents a duel-acoustic guitar and tight vocal front and bass backing, with a repertoire of 90s pop hits including Alanis Moris-

Mike Mendenhall/Daily News Iowa blues-rock band Big Bad Wolf’s lead guitarists takes a solo Saturday during the second annual Rock the Quarry at Quarry Springs Park in Colfax. Organizers at the 480-acre city park off Interstate 80 were able to draw 150 concert goers Saturday despite high temperatures and a busy slate of competing events throughout central Iowa. The next Rock the Quarry is scheduled for Sept. 16.

sette and Natalie Imbruglia.

The band members, who go by first name-only Greta, Isabella and Stella, said they love the outdoor venue in Colfax. “I really like being outside.

It’s open. I like when people are surrounded like a community.

It’s fun,� Greta said.

Quarry Springs has been in development since 2014.

Owned by the city, landscaping, shoreline work on the park’s four lakes and existing building improvements have

all been covered by grants, monetary giving and donated time by park and rec auxiliary volunteers. An indoor archery range also opened at the park last winter.

A 15-year master plan developed for the park by the community and Confluence Architects of Des Monies was unveiled last year. It includes eventual retail, water-view condos, RV, cabin and extended tent camping, primitive nature areas, a beach and a cable park.

Mike Mendenhall/Daily News Fans of Big Bad Wolf enjoy the show at Rock the Quarry on Saturday at Quarry Springs Park in Colfax. The second date in the concert fundraising series is set for Sept. 16.

When Rock the Quarry music coordinated Dennis Farland and Utz took the stage Saturday, they mentioned plans for a new boat dock and a nature trail in the near future. Electric boat motors have recently been cleared for the Quarry Springs lakes.

Volunteers are already busy at work making Rock the Quarry a bi-annual fundraiser, with the next concert scheduled for Sept. 16. Advanced tickets are already on sale for $10. Park

Mike Mendenhall/Daily News Big Bad Wolf takes the stage at Rock the Quarry on Saturday at Quarry Springs Park in Colfax. The Iowa blues-rock band was one of four on the bill during the second annual concert fundraiser for the 480-acre park. Quarry Springs is a volunteer driven project in Colfax which aims to be a statewide draw for rustic and, eventually, resort-style recreation.

and rec auxiliary president Doug Garrett and Farland announced the bill Sunday which includes Newton-based Slipstream and the Harvest Band.

Colfax rock-acoustic guitarist Richard Arndt will also treat Quarry visitors between main sets.

In the two years since the property was donated to the city of Colfax from Martin Marietta, Inc., volunteers have clocked more than 16,000 hours of labor, marketing and organizational meetings for Quarry Springs, and it continues to draw new faces like 28-year-old Mike Fraiser.

Fraiser recently moved from Alaska to a farm outside of Newton to live with family. He saw a flyer for Rock the Quarry and decided it was the perfect break from a stretch of 12-hour work days. “The park is beautiful,�

Fraiser said while playing catch with his black lab as Big Bad Wolf jammed on stage. “I walked around before we came out to the band stand, and the park is gorgeous. It’s just good music for it being this small of an event. It’s surprising there aren’t more people here. It’s definitely better than planting tomatoes.â€?Â

Cardinals deck 2A No. 7 CMB

CMB Raiders go 2-1 in Newton softball tournament

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Smarting from an eight-inning loss at Norwalk on Friday night, Newton High’s Cardinals took it out on Class 2A seventh-ranked Collins-Maxwell/ Baxter in a softball game Saturday in Newton’s tournament.

The Cardinals pounded out 13 hits against CMB’s senior pitcher Abbey Kahler. Kahler gave up two home runs in the game — two-run shots by sophomore Emily Valtman and senior Bailey Davis.

Newton powered its way to an 11-5 win in six innings over the Raiders. The Raiders rallied to win 3-2 in eight innings over Class 4A second-ranked Benton before taking on the Cardinals. CMB finished its day at Newton’s Agnes Patterson Park with a 13-1 win over South Hardin in three innings.

The Cardinals only had one game in their home tournament because Des Moines North pulled out of it late in the week.

“We came from a really hard loss Friday night, and we were determined to come back with a lot of fire,” Davis said. “We knew we’d face a good pitcher at Norwalk and another good pitcher today against CMB. We just want to keep this fire going into next week.”

Valtman had a monster game at the plate for Newton against CMB. Valtman went 3-for-4 with a home run, a single and a ground-rule double. Davis doubled and had her first high school career home run.

Davis doubled with one out in the first inning then with two gone, Valtman planted a Kahler pitch over the center field fence. Newton held a 2-0 lead after one complete inning after sophomore starting pitcher Anna Coyle worked a 1-2-3 bottom of the frame.

“It was a high pitch and right down the middle,” Valtman said of Kahler’s offering. “I sprinted after I hit it until I saw it went over as I came around second base. Coach (Kristina McNew) says we seem to wait until the fourth, fifth and sixth innings to really start hitting the ball. Today, it was great to come out and hit the ball well from the first inning on. This was a big win for us.”

Kahler led off the bottom of the second with a solo home run over the center field fence.

It was Kahler’s first home run of the season. It was a hitter’s day with the strong breeze blowing out from home plate.

Newton stayed out front of CMB throughout the game.

The Cardinals produced a run with two gone in the third inning. Valtman connected for a single and scored on a error on a ball hit to left field by Taylor Ryan.

CMB got the run back in its half of the third. Heather Jessen singled and scored on back-to-back Newton errors.

Up 3-2, the Cardinals kept the pressure on as Kennedy

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News A welcoming committee awaits at home plate for Newton High senior Bailey Davis (21) after she hit her first high school career home run — a two run blast in the fourth inning against Collins-Maxwell/Baxter in Saturday’s tournament game at Newton’s Agnes Patterson Park. Newton beat CMB 11-5 in the only game the host team played. CMB went 2-1 in the tournament.

Leiker drew a one-out walk and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Harlie Durr.

Karley Leiker drove in her sister with an RBI base hit which was followed by Davis’ tworun blast.

“It was a low inside pitch, which is my worst pitch to hit,” Davis said. “I just wanted to keep things going for our team.”

Davis said the Cardinals were helped in the game by having all their players available and starting in the regular positions. She said Newton’s two pitcher did a great job against a hard-hitting CMB lineup.

The Raiders scored three runs in their fourth inning at bat. Mikayla Eslinger singled and ended up at third on an error.

Hannah Caple was safe at first when Ryan pulled her foot off the bag to take the throw and Eslinger scored.

Holly Jessen drove a tworun home run over the center field fence to pull the Raiders to within one run, 6-5. The Raiders put two more runners on base with one out on a single and a walk. Coyle coaxed two fly balls to retire the Raiders.

Valtman opened the fifth for Newton with a groundrule double. Rilee Slycord singled and Audrey Lucas drove in a run with a base hit.

Newton diamond teams drop LHC games at Norwalk

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News NORWALK — It was not the road trip Newton High’s baseball and softball teams expected Friday night. Both the Cardinal teams went into their Little Hawkeye Conference games at Norwalk with

the intention of winning the road games.

It was a heartbreaking loss for the Newton softball team.

It had rallied to tie the game up late then lost it, 7-6, in eight innings.

The Cardinal baseball team had finally won a game — back-to-back games — this

season and was confident going up against the Warriors.

Unfortunately, the offense was slow starting Friday night and the Cardinals fell behind 6-0 and lost 9-2.

The Cardinal girls are 5-2 in LHC play. Newton’s baseball team is 1-6 in conference action.

“We competed in the first six innings. We had runners on and again, we just didn’t come up with that big hit,” Newton head baseball coach Dustin Brisel said. “Logan Wolfe was throwing strikes but a bit high and Norwalk hit the ball.”

After scrambling for two

runs in the fifth to make it 6-2, Newton left runners on base in the sixth and again in the seventh. Brisel said the Cardinals had a couple of mental mistakes in the bottom of the sixth inning allowing Norwalk to score three more runs.

Short-handed Mustangs lose three straight on softball diamond

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MONROE — The Prairie City-Monroe softball team fell behind North Polk early and never recovered during a Heart of Iowa Conference game Friday night.

The Class 3A No. 11 Mustangs were handed their first conference loss, and North Polk pulled within one game of PCM and Collins-Maxwell/Baxter in the HOIC standings after jumping out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning.

Newton is 2-13 on the season and heads to Pella Monday to take on Pella Christian in a LHC doubleheader.

Newton

Continued from Page 1B Norwalk scored three runs in each of the second and third innings to built its 6-0 lead. The Cardinals were retired in order the first three innings and Norwalk’s Tyler Steward’s no-hitter bid was broken up with a base hit by Tyler Stanton in the fourth inning.

With one out in the fifth, Ben Leal singled for Newton and Wolfe drew a walk.

Blayden Rhone was safe on a fielder’s choice to load the bases. Cole Cazett and Brennen Dodd had back-toback RBI base hits.

The other hit of the game for the Cardinals was a single by Trey Vanderlaan.

LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Ryan Blaney was stationed in victory lane with a headset on as a guest pit reporter just the day before at Pocono Raceway. But to get there again, on his own in the No. 21 Ford, he’d have to zip past a pair of hardened NASCAR champions with just 10 laps left.

Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch may not be ready yet to officially pass the torch to the next generation of drivers. So it’s up to young 20-somethings like Blaney to yank that torch — that checkered flag — and knock ‘em off their perch.

Driving for owners with roots steeped in NASCAR history, Blaney blazed his way down the stretch past Busch, held off a hard-charging Harvick, and won his first career NASCAR Cup race Sunday at the raceway.

That’s career win No. 99 for the Wood Brothers.

No. 1 for Blaney, well, that felt pretty good.

Blaney, a “Star Wars” nut, was tongue tied when he met actress Daisy Ridley in March. An hour or so after confetti fluttered on him in victory lane, he offered an open invitation to Ridley to join the post-race party.

The bash might last as long as a “Star Wars” marathon.

“Maybe she watched the race today,” Blaney said. “She better get on a plane right now. It’ll actually be going on all night, so she’s got plenty of time to get here.”

The 23-year-old Blaney, son of NASCAR driver Dave Blaney, grandson of dirt track star Lou Blaney, won for the first time in 68 career starts and partied again in victory lane. He was a guest reporter for Fox during the Xfinity race.

Blaney interviewed Xfinity winner Brad Keselowski in victory lane on Saturday as part of an all-driver broadcast by Fox. Keselowski finished fifth on Sunday and returned the favor by crashing the broadcast and interviewed Blaney.

“What was going through your mind? You’re in victory lane, man!” Keselowski said.

“I just didn’t want to make a mistake,” Blaney told Keselowski. “That would have been the worst thing we could do.”

He was near flawless over those final 10 laps.

“He outran two guys today that are champions,” Eddie Wood said.

It was a bit of a throwback for the Woods. Blaney’s radio

was busted and he had no communication with his team after about the first 40 laps.

“It figures the one race we don’t have radio communication, we end up winning it,” Blaney said.

“Maybe we should turn the radio off more often.”

The Wood Brothers have won at least one race in each of the last six decades, but none since Trevor Bayne won the Daytona 500 in 2011.

Blaney is the 18th driver to win a Cup race with the Wood Brothers.

He is also part of a bumper crop of blossoming young talent that his hit NASCAR over the last couple of years. Two of those drivers were in the top 10: rookie Erik Jones was third and Chase Elliott was eighth.

Blaney joined Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Austin Dillon as first-time Cup winners this season.

“We can finally add our name to that group,” a beaming Blaney said.

Harvick, the 2014 champion, knows the new generation is coming on strong.

“These young guys have to get into victory lane to get these fans that don’t like me and Kyle,” he said. “The younger crowd has to win, and today Ryan was able to do that, so not only is it good for him, but it’s good for the whole sport.”

Blaney had a brief chat in victory lane with one of his best friends and fellow driver, Darrell Wallace Jr. Wallace finished a lap down in 26th in the first start by a black driver in the Cup series since 2006. He felt ill after the race and needed to go to the medical center. Wallace said he was embarrassed, but fine.

“It was really cool, a really fun day,” Wallace said.

The Wood Brothers share a technical alliance with team owner Roger Penske and “The Captain” would like to add Blaney to his roster, possibly next year.

Next year was a worry for another day.

“I like where I’m at,” Blaney said.

With the Wood Brothers.

And, in victory lane.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s winless season stretched into Pocono when he was forced out of the race because of mechanical issues. Earnhardt, who will retire at the end of the season, has finished 30th or worse six times this season.

Raider baseball loses twice at Colo-NESCO tournament

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News ZEARING — The Collins-Maxwell/Baxter baseball team allowed 38 runs in two games at the Colo-NESCO tournament and finished 0-2 against the host Royals and West Marshall.

The Raiders opened the tournament with a 22-12 loss to Colo-NESCO and then West Marshall handed CMB a 16-4 loss in the tourney finale.

CMB led the Royals 8-1

Kemp

Senior Brady Kemp had two of the Raiders’ three hits in the game. One of those hits was a home run, and Kemp finished with two RBIs. Senior Brady Ross finished with runs, two RBIs and walked twice, and junior Travis Lindemoen walked twice and scored twice. Freshman Cole Damman scored twice and sophomore Ian Thomson walked twice.

Freshman Carter Nelson allowed four runs — one earned — on one hit in 4 1/3

Jobe claims tight Principal Charity Classic DES MOINES (AP) — Brandt Jobe could only laugh as he watched Scott McCarron, his old college roommate, rush up the leaderboard and threaten to steal the Principal Charity Classic out from under him.

But Jobe stayed steady and, armed with a new putter, closed out the win he had sought for nearly two decades.

Jobe won the PGA Tour Champions event Sunday by one shot, finishing at 14-under 202 for his first victory in 19 years.

Jobe shot a 69 in the final round at the Wakonda Club to snap a winless drought that had stretched back to 1998, when he took first in a tournament in Japan.

“It’s hard. You’re out here to win, and I haven’t done as good of a job as I would have liked,” Jobe said.

“This is nice. It’s a little bit of a relief.”

McCarron, who won in Iowa last year, was second at 13 under after shooting a final round 66 — the day’s best score.

Kevin Sutherland holed out for an eagle on No. 18 to join McCarron at 203.

Money leader Bernhard Langer finished at 12 under, while Scott Verplank, Tom Lehman and Steve Flesch were another shot back.

Marco Dawson and Stephen Ames finished at 207.

Jobe, who used a brand-new putter this weekend after struggling during the Senior PGA Tour, responded to his first back-nine bogey of the tournament a hole later, making birdie on No. 15 to re-take the lead.

Jobe put himself in some danger with a

shaky tee shot on the par-3 17th hole, but he managed to save par.

Jobe then drilled his first shot on No. 18 straight down the fairway and watched as Sutherland’s eagle made a three-man playoff a possibility.

But Jobe two-putted from the fringe to seal the win, a fitting end to a tournament in which Jobe simply made most of the short putts he needed to make.

“For me, it lets me know that the things I’m doing are good and to keep doing them,” Jobe said.

McCarron, who graduated with Jobe from UCLA in 1988, strung together six consecutive birdies to grab a share of the lead with five holes to go.

But McCarron ran out of luck, missing birdie putts on Nos. 17 and 18 that would’ve pulled him even with Jobe.

“I hung in there,” McCarron said. “When you have one of your best friends win a golf tournament, it means a lot to (Jobe), so really proud of him.”

Langer, who was attempting to become the first senior golfer in seven years to win three consecutive starts, shot 67 on Sunday.

Langer, the circuit money leader, had five bogeys in the second round. Langer had a makeable birdie putt on No. 18, but he pulled it inches away from the hole.

“I was pleased with most of what I did,” said Langer, who posted his first top-10 finish after a pair of poor showings in Iowa. “I just didn’t quite have it in me.”

Perfect 10: Nadal routs Wawrinka for record 10th French Open ​PARIS (AP) — As he sat in front of a TV to watch last year’s French Open final, sidelined by an injured left wrist, Rafael Nadal had no way to know for sure, of course, that he would return to the height of his powers.

For the second time in a row, the most important match at the most important clay-court tournament was being contested without him. As the 2017 edition at Roland Garros began, Nadal’s drought without a Grand Slam title was stretching to three full years.

“It was difficult,” said Nadal’s uncle and coach, Toni.

“We were asking ourselves whether he would be able achieve this one more time.”

Turned out he could, and he did, as masterful as at any time. Overwhelmingly good from start to finish in Sunday’s final, and for the entire two weeks, Nadal won his record 10th French Open title with a 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 victory over 2015 champion Stan Wawrinka.

“A perfect Roland Garros for me,” Nadal said. “I play my best at all events, but the feeling here is impossible to describe. It’s impossible to compare it to another place. The nerves, the adrenaline, I feel on the court are impossible to compare to another feeling.

This is the most important event in my career.”

No other man or woman has won 10 titles at the same major in the Open era.

Along with improving to 10-0 in finals at Roland Garros, Nadal increased his haul

Nadal

Ostapenko

to 15 Grand Slam trophies, breaking a tie with Pete Sampras for second place in the history of men’s tennis, behind only rival Roger Federer’s 18.

It marked a stirring return to the top for Nadal at the site he loves the most: He is 79-2 at the French Open, 102-2 in all best-of-five-set matches on clay.

“He’s playing the best he’s ever played. That’s for sure,” said Wawrinka, who had won 11 matches in a row on clay.

True. Nadal leads the tour with four titles and 43 match wins this season and will rise to No. 2 in the ATP rankings Monday.

Unseeded Ostapenko wins French Open for first title PARIS (AP) — Right from the start of the French Open final, Jelena Ostapenko made quite clear to anyone unfamiliar with her name, or her game, what she is all about.

Yes, she was just two days past her 20th birthday. Yes, she was ranked only 47th. Yes, she was trying to become the first unseeded women’s champion at the tournament since — get this — 1933. And yes,

she was trying to become the first woman in nearly four decades to make a Grand Slam title the first tour-level triumph of her career. None of that mattered to Ostapenko.

She began what would become an enthralling, 2-hour encounter by breaking No. 3-seeded Simona Halep at love with a series of grip-itand-rip-it shots , eliciting loud, appreciative gasps from spectators. So what if Ostapenko wound up dropping that set, then facing big deficits in the second and third?

Ostapenko never wavered, using bold strokes and an unbending will to come back and stun Halep 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 for an unlikely championship at Roland Garros.

Halep, a 25-year-old from Romania, was the 2014 French Open runner-up and would have moved up to No. 1 in the WTA rankings if she had won Saturday. She appeared headed for a runaway victory when up a set and 3-0 in the second, plus holding three break points for the chance to lead 4-0. But Ostapenko would not go quietly, winning that game and the next three en route to forcing a third set.

She again summoned a veteran’s resolve down 3-1 in the third set, taking the match’s last five games and, fittingly, striking a pair of winners on the last two points.

“Enjoy, be happy, and keep it going,” Halep told Ostapenko during the trophy ceremony, “because you’re like a kid.”

Sure is. Quite a precocious one.

innings, but he didn’t factor into the decision. Sophomore Derrick Klemme and senior Adam Smith and Kemp all pitched in relief.

Smith took the loss after allowing seven runs — three earned — on two hits with three walks and no strikeouts in 1/3 of an inning.

West Marshall (10-3) tallied five runs in the second, six in the third and four in the fourth in the win over CMB (2-8).

PCM Continued from Page 2B Van Dyke hit his third homer of the season and finished with two hits, two runs and two RBIs. Junior Noah Henkenius tallied two hits, three runs and two RBIs, Phifer and Clark each had two hits and Van Wyk had two steals.

Phifer took the loss on the mound, allowing five earned runs on six hits with two walks in two innings.

lights of life give you three colors, but the crossing is still up to you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

It’s no secret whom you love, but you would be hard-pressed to say why. You could come up with a few reasons, but all of them wouldn’t equal the sum of your love, with mysterious forces still unaccounted for.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

It seems rather obvious to you that you should spend time with people who reflect how you want to feel, though finding them isn’t quite so easy as you’d like it to be lately. You’ll probably have to take the lead in setting a desired tone.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If the thing you do out of a sense of decorum (and most likely

at no small effort and cost to you, at least emotionally) does not serve to keep the peace or satisfy the social agenda, you have to ask, “What am I doing it for?”

The hero of the story usually comes to a crucial scene in which he finds out who he really is. In real life, this isn’t a crucial scene; it’s a series of small moments that add up to tendencies that accumulate in a character portrait.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Energies are contagious, especially today and most especially yours. Furthermore, you’ll be around particularly susceptible people, so the burden of responsibility will fall to you in regard to their mood.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Many will take time to reflect on the motives and actions of others, while very few will afford their own actions and motives such reflection. This is where you’ll have an advantage to exploit.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The person who doesn’t “want to talk about it” usually does. “Pay no attention to the...” is a sentence that never works as stated. Try to focus exclusively on what you want and where you’re going.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Strength and grace are often shown in the topics and point of view a person chooses and in the particular words, as well. In spite of what hurts, you’ll speak exclusively of happiness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You can’t learn less. Even if you forget the lesson or if some reversal of mind causes you to rebel against its teaching, to believe its opposite or to go numb to its imprint, you’re still changed by what you know.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). What if you asked for everything? What if you asked for far less than everything but more than the others have asked for? The former will be considered hyperbole, the latter greed. Go with the first option.
