Representatives of the City of Newton, Venture Homes of West Des Moines and the Newton Housing Development Corporation broke ground on two home sites in Fountain Hills Estates subdivision early Thursday afternoon, marking the first new home starts in the long-stalled development in the central Iowa city.

Venture Homes will begin construction immediately on a ranch style home as well as a two-story plan. Both new homes will feature three-car garages, full basements and granite countertops in kitchens and bathrooms, as well as many other upgraded amenities. All lots in Fountain Hills will be offered free to homebuyers as a purchase bonus in lieu of the $10,000 cash incentive for other new residential construction in Newton. The Fountain Hills lots are wooded, generally a half acre in size, and are located one minute from access to Interstate 80.

Fountain Hills was originally platted in 1996 and developed for 20 new home lots in 2001, but for a variety of reasons, the development stalled. All the properties eventually went through the tax sale process and were acquired through that method

“The city council’s emphasis on increasing housing development in Newton was the driving force behind our decision to seek a homebuilder to begin construction of quality new homes in Fountain Hills.”

— Newton Mayor Mike Hansen

by the City of Newton in 2013. The city then sought a qualified homebuilder to jump start construction in Fountain Hills.

“The city council’s emphasis on increasing housing development in Newton was the driving force behind our decision to seek a homebuilder to begin construction of quality new homes in Fountain Hills,” Newton Mayor Mike Hansen said. “We issued a ‘request for proposal’ to central Iowa homebuilders, and received several attractive proposals.

Venture Homes had the most viable plan for building out the subdivision, and we applaud their willingness to step up and build new homes right away.”

Stephen R. Grubb, president of Venture Homes, has been building spec and custom homes in the Greater Des Moines area as well as a num-

ber of other Iowa locations for close to 50 years. Fountain Hills Estates will be Venture’s first subdivision construction project in Newton, but according to Meredith Conway, construction coordinator of Venture Homes, the homebuilder is confident that the project will be highly successful.

“Newton is ready for new home construction in all price ranges,” Conway said. “In fact, according to our real estate agents, Doyle & DeVoe/Iowa Realty in Newton, homes are selling very quickly in the city and there is a huge unmet demand for new construction. We believe that Fountain Hills offers many distinct advantages to homebuyers, including being just a minute or so from the I-80 onramp, and we’re confident that our quality-built homes will sell very quickly here.”

The Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce is looking for sponsors, volunteers and parade entries for Newton’s annual Fourth of July parade and festivities.

This year’s theme is “A Hometown Fourth of July.”

Float or parade entries may be planned around any Fourth of July memory, from family picnics and ice cream socials, to a pie eating contest or a church carnival.

“This year reflects the simple, pure memories of friends, family and neighbors gathering to celebrate our great country together,” according to the Chamber’s website.

The parade will begin at 9:30 a.m. Friday, July 4. All parade entries must be registered

by Monday. A $10 parade entry donation fee is encouraged to help with the costs of hosting the parade. For more information, call (641) 792-5545.

Helen Grosvenor has been selected as the parade grand marshal. Watch the Daily News next week for a feature story on her.

The goal of the Summer Youth Police Academy is to promote youth interest in law enforcement as a career. Training this year included a tour of the police department facility and a presentation about requirements to enter the law enforcement field. Students also learned about crime scene identification, which included fingerprinting and evidence handling. Students were taught how police officers make safe traffic stops as well writing warnings and citations based on a traffic violation. On the final day, students learned arrest and control procedures as well as handcuffing and officer safety procedures.

Club Notes Kellogg Garden Club Louise Meakins gave an interesting presentation on wind energy in Iowa at the June 24 meeting. Electricity is generated from the rotation of the blades that turn to face the wind. The pitch of the blades also adjusts automatically. Electricity needs to be used as made.

Iowa wind energy can supply 44 times the need in

Iowa. Wind produces 27 percent of our energy which is enough to power 1.5 million homes.

The group will make a monthly monetary contribution to the East Jasper County Food Pantry.

Members continue to weed and tend the flowers at city hall, the library, the gazebo in the park and the triangle at the entrance to town.

DNR fishing report The Iowa Department of Natural Resources issues a weekly fishing report yesterday in an effort to provide the latest information heading into the weekend.

Ex-cop suspect in deaths of two women MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The disappearance of a Minnesota mother of seven was just a missing person case when it landed on the desk of Detective Sgt. Lee Hollatz. Seven months later, her body and that of another woman were found stuffed in suitcases along a rural Wisconsin highway, and the former police officer whom Hollatz had long considered his top person of interest is now suspected in their deaths.

Steven M. Zelich is scheduled to appear in court in Wisconsin on Friday afternoon on two counts of hiding a corpse.

Authorities say Zelich, a 52-year-old security guard from West Allis, Wisconsin, met his victims online, bound and killed them and kept their bodies for months, either in his vehicle or his home, though he has not yet been charged in their deaths.

One of the women was Laura Simonson, whose family reported her missing last November. Hollatz, a police detective in the Twin Cities suburb of Farmington, Minn., told The Associated Press Thursday that Zelich had been “the No. 1 person on my radar” since January. But the crucial break didn’t come until highway workers found the suitcases with

the bodies on June 5 in the Town of Geneva, some 50 miles southwest of Milwaukee.

Authorities have not released the identity of the second woman but describe her as a white female with long, dark hair, a pronounced overbite and a small heart tattoo on her lower left abdomen. According to a criminal complaint, Zelich told investigators he killed her in Kenosha County, Wis., in late 2012 or early 2013 and Simonson at a hotel in Rochester, Minn., in November.

Walworth County public defender Travis Schwantes said he would most likely be the attorney assigned to represent Zelich in Wisconsin.

Schwantes declined to comment on the allegations until he’d spoken with Zelich.

Simonson, 37, of Farmington, was reported missing by her family Nov. 22. Hollatz said all he had was a missing person’s case until her body was found.

“I always saw her as vulnerable because of the mental health issues, drug use and things,” he said, though he declined to go into more details.

He added: “Don’t get me wrong. Laura was a nice lady. No doubt about it.”

Hollatz tracked Simonson’s last movements

to the Microtel Inn and Suites in Rochester, because employees recognized her from a crime alert he sent out. He said they remembered her because someone had been smoking in her room in violation of hotel rules.

Simonson checked in under her own name on Nov. 2. He said the hotel’s security video showed a man later identified as Zelich leaving alone the next morning, but Simonson was not seen leaving. In midJanuary, Hollatz got a tip that Simonson probably was with a man named Steve Zelich from West Allis.

The West Allis Police Department, at Hollatz’s request, went to Zelich’s apartment but found no signs of Simonson. A few weeks later, after Zelich failed to respond to a letter from Hollatz, FBI and Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation agents went to talk to Zelich.

Hollatz declined to say what Zelich told the agents. But, he said, “After that interview Steven Zelich was still the No. 1 person on my radar.”

Zelich worked for the West Allis Police Department from 1989 until he resigned in 2001.

He had been a licensed private security officer with Securitas Security Services USA since 2007.

Newton Police Department • Travis W. Nichol, 24, of Des Moines was charged with possession of methamphetamine (more than five grams) with intent to deliver, failure to affix a drug tax stamp, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, and Alyssa M. Bright, 23, of Newton was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia after authorities responded to a complaint of suspicious activity at 5:09 a.m. Tuesday at the Super 8 motel. Police were granted entry into Bright’s room and could smell marijuana. Bright eventually showed authorities marijuana in a nightstand, a glass methamphetamine pipe on the bed and a syringe from her purse.

While speaking with Bright, Nichol came to the door. Nichol was arrested on a warrant, and police found a baggie of meth when searching him. He asked to say goodbye to his girlfriend in another room. Police could smell marijuana when arriving at the other room and found a baggie of marijuana, another baggie of meth, a digital scale and a meth pipe with burnt residue.

The total amount of meth found was 11.6 grams. Nichol admitted the items were his. Both Nichol and Bright were transported to the Jasper County Jail.

A criminal charge is merely an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

DNR warns people about swimmer’s itch CRYSTAL LAKE (AP) — Officials are warning people visiting some of Iowa’s natural lakes about a condition called swimmer’s itch.

The state Department of Natural Resources says reports of swimmer’s itch have come in from Crystal Lake and Black Hawk Lake. The condition is caused by a parasite that can burrow into human skin before dying.

The DNR says the condition can create welts and itching and last for several days.

People visiting beaches and natural lakes should avoid swimming in areas with aquatic plants. Swimmers should also reduce their amount of time in the water, and dry off quickly after getting out of the water.

Katiedid Vs.

Wanderlust I’ve been mainlining “House Hunters International.”

A steady shot straight to the gut of what my life could be. Sandy beaches. Outdoor cafes. Wine at twilight. Monkeys ravaging my luggage, wearing my underwear. Pet dolphins eating Cap’n Crunch out of the palm of my hand. Me eating Cap’n Crunch out of the palm of my hand.

There is danger in watching a Sunday marathon of “House Hunters International.” You start to lose your sense of reality. A new country every 30 minutes. A new lifestyle different from your own. The pulsating

By Katiedid energy of city lights. The Langrock breathless silence of isoCreators Syndicate lated desert. Before you know it, the sun is down, and you’re not sure whether you’re ordering a new passport to become a cheese-maker in Chile, a kite surfer in South Africa or a nudist sculptor in Florence. The only thing you are certain of is that you are moving. It’s only a matter of time before you naturally develop an exotic accent and a classy birthmark on your left cheek and adopt a miniature poodle with a lion cut whose coat naturally changes color to match whichever wine you’re drinking.

I’m suffering from wanderlust.

Perhaps it’s because I stay home more often since having my son. Nowadays, the most exotic place I go is the Panda Express at the mall food court. Chopsticks in hand, I try my best to imagine I’m staring at the Forbidden City, but when I open my eyes, it’s just a Frederick’s of Hollywood. Instead of flying around the world in 80 days, I push a stroller around the 80 carts selling hair bands and cellphone cases. Sure, my toddler loves jumping on the octopus-shaped slide and driving the foam boat in the mall’s kiddie section, but one aquarium does not a scuba trip in the Caymans make.

I used to be interesting. I find myself saying that a lot lately. With two years of backpacking under my belt and work as an adventure tour guide in the Outback on my resume, I used to be interesting. On second thought, perhaps the better word is reckless.

For as much time as I have spent living abroad, it was never lived in the formal fashion of “House Hunters International.” I spent months eating only a single baguette a day, hitchhiking, rock climbing without ropes, sleeping in tents, sleeping on park benches, sleeping in strangers’ homes and doing just about everything that I, now as a mom, will use my every last breath to try to deter my child from doing.

It’s a weird feeling becoming a parent.

On one hand, I’ve never felt more connected. Here is this person whom I created, who owns my heart, whom I breathe for. But on the other hand, I’ve never felt less connected to the person I identify as being, and I haven’t yet figured out how to be both.

Folks didn’t like it when Steve Irwin wrangled a crocodile while holding his baby. Back then, I thought that as long as the Crocodile Hunter hadn’t lathered up his baby in goose fat before entering the crocodile den, he was fine. My perspective has changed.

Previously, I spent nights out of my tent, sleeping under the stars, as a pack of dingoes attacked a baby calf less than 100 feet away.

Now I’ll ask a dog walker how friendly her 12-week-old puppy is before I let my son pet him. Previously, I would have seen white windowless vans as little more than a nice place to sleep on rainy nights. These days, my son’s obsession with windowless vans, including a knack for running to their back doors, has me a tad bit nervous. Everything I do now errs on the side of safety. Everything I do now errs on the side of boring.

Even my fantasies have become dull.

When I watch “House Hunters International,” I find myself ticking off certain locations because of their risk ratios. Australia has too many snakes. Brazil has too many waves. Samoa has a ridiculously delicious Girl Scout cookie named after it, sure to cause diabetes and end in the amputation of limbs.

I thought I’d be crunchier than this. More granola. Not that I’d ever actually eat granola; I’m not that crazy.

Perhaps it is time to turn off the TV and dust off the ol’ tent. There may be too many waves in Brazil, but there aren’t any in my backyard.

Write On

Another one bites the dust Part 2 In my last column, which has been a few weeks ago now, I let you all know about the tragic incident between my car and my phone in which I accidentally ran over my phone and found it moments later, smashed, cracked and lying shattered on Fourth Street near Amoco.

I thought I was having a troubling day, but later that weekend proved me wrong.

I was coming back from visitBy Kate Malott ing my boyfriend in Daily News Staff Writer southwest Iowa, and I was on Interstate 80 headed east. It was almost 6 p.m., and I had just entered Dallas County. Naturally, I thought about potentially stopping for something to eat unique to the Des Moines area or possibly just stopping to do a walk-through of Target. What girl in her 20s and in her first job out of college doesn’t love the contemporary, clean style of Target?

The sun was setting, and I was listening to radio, both hands on the wheel, and there it came from the south: a large graceful, leaping deer.

BOOM. The deer and the front end of my 2005 Chevy Malibu made perfect impact. It hit hard. It was harder than I ever imagined. The seatbelt locked, and my skin felt hot from the pressure and my instant driver’s panic. I was shaking.

I couldn’t tell what the damage looked like, but the smell was offensive and the smoke worrisome.

I creeped along the interstate for a minute, but I knew the car might not make it far.

After pulling over, I called my boyfriend, who helped calm me down and reminded me what to do. I called 911 and told them I had hit deer, needed assistance and wasn’t sure what to do in the situation.

The operator asked me to walk to the nearest mile marker to identify my location.

She sent an Iowa State Patrol officer, who showed up within five minutes and was wonderful.

He pulled up, spoke with me and he was surprisingly comforting. I wasn’t alone.

While I called a State Farm Insurance agent, he went back to look for the deer. He returned a short time later and said, “I found it in the ditch. It was just a little doe.”

We laughed.

As I remained on the phone with the agent, he informed me that he would be back in 20 minutes because he had another call.

The insurance agent on the phone told me about my coverage and arranged for a tow truck to take the car and myself to wherever I wanted to go. Newton!

The patrol office pulled up again behind me while I waited to find out the estimated time of arrival of the tow. He came to speak to me again and said, “There’s a big storm coming in any minute, and I need to get you off the road. I’ll take you to the next stop and the tow can pick you up there. If not, I’ll take you back to your car.”

As I rode to the next town, De Soto, the officer told me about his call. A woman’s dog had died in her car, and she was too distraught to drive. We talked about how unpredictable his job is and also how the computer in the car should be considered distracted driving.

By this time there was a torrential downpour. He dropped me off at a Casey’s General Store because he said it was a nicer place to wait and gave me his card.

I sat down and made a few phone calls with the tow truck business, which sounded friendly on the phone, and a few others. I got a bite to eat and sat down with a guy who was waiting on his Casey’s pizza.

We talked for about 20 minutes about our jobs. He was a youth anger management spe-

cialist, individual values and cultural norms.

When his pizza came, we said our goodbyes, and at that exact time I noticed the tow driver pull in. Yay! Relief.

He picked me up, and his daughter rode with us. She was about to enter high school and sat in the middle. They were from Winterset, and she was making the rounds with him that day.

The driver and I talked about places we had lived, changes in our business industries and our college days. His daughter just listened, and then we talked about high school.

He had told me how dangerous his profession has become and changed over his 20-year career. He told me it wasn’t like it use to be. He said some drivers have been robbed and strangers are stranger than ever, so it is not uncommon for all tow truck drivers to carry a gun.

We came to Newton, and I took my car to Sullivan’s Auto Body. It was about 10 p.m. I had made it home okay.

Looking back, I learned a lot about other people’s personal lives and, primarily, their professions. I asked each of them 20 questions it seemed, and it seems my curiosity makes me a natural journalist.

Most importantly, I learned a lot about who is there for me.

Friends in town gave me rides without hesitation. Friends in other towns offered to come visit me instead of planning for me to visit them. or they went out of their way to pick me up for an event.

I’ve had three wonderful woman offer me their vehicles when they didn’t need them, and that has been an enormous relief.

I’m so thankful, grateful and blessed — but that poor deer, on the other hand.

Oh, and my car? It’s totaled.

So, I’m in need of a new car. I don’t want to spend a lot, and I don’t want a lot of miles. Is that too much to ask? If any of you know of any good deals, well, you know where to find me.

Letter to the Editor

Newton police officer was justified in shooting pit bull

To the editor: In response to your front page article on police officer shooting dog: 1) Officer responds to a dog running loose call, 2) Dog is a pit bull and attacks officer and 3) Officer protects himself by shooting dog: Where were the owners? Picture is nice, but these

dogs are also known to kill babies in the house hold.

We supposedly have ordinances against these dogs running loose. I am a proponent of JCARL and what they do. I am a cat person and my cats are only outside in a carrier when going to vet.

Officer was justified in what he did. Owners of these animals need to take the responsibility for their pets.

Head high by the Fourth of July

Some state parks reopen after flood Special to the Daily News Some of Iowa’s state parks impacted from last week’s flooding have reopened and are ready for visitors, but others have portions still closed.

George Wyth State Park will reopen Friday.

Backbone State Park’s lower road will open Friday. The campground was not impacted by the flood and is open.

Yellow River State Forest’s campgrounds are open.

Not every park or section has reopened.

The main road through Dolliver State Park is still flooded. The campground and family cabins remain closed and reservations have been cancelled through this weekend.

The south lodge and group camp are open and accessible from the south entrance and the north open shelter is open and accessible from the north entrance.

The Canyon Drive and Lower Ledges Road at Ledges State Park are currently closed to vehicle traffic due to flooding. There’s no timetable on when the areas will be open as park staff will have to wait for the water to recede before assessing damages and starting clean-up efforts. The campground, shelters, trails, many picnic areas, parking lots, and other roads was not impacted by the flood and is open.

Wapsipinicon State Park’s lower road is still under water. The campground was not impacted and is open.

Wildcat trail at Pine Lake State Park is under water. The campground was not impacted and is open.

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources maintains a list of park closures on its website www.iowadnr.gov/parks under the Closure Information link in the column on the left.

Standing at 6 feet, 2 inches, Roger Harrington of rural Ollie is pictured in one of his corn fields on Wednesday.

Authorities: Four-decade fugitive used dead boys’ IDs IOWA CITY (AP) — Convicted armed robber Ronald Dwaine Carnes eluded authorities for nearly 41 years after escaping from a North Carolina prison. But with the help of facial recognition technology, investigators say he’s been caught living in northeastern Iowa under the identities of two 5-yearold boys who died in the 1940s.

Carnes, 69, made an initial appearance Thursday in federal court in Iowa on charges of misusing Social Security numbers, aggravated identity theft and being a felon and fugitive in possession of a firearm.

Investigators say Carnes spent decades underground after escaping from a now-closed prison in Huntersville, North Carolina, in August 1973.

“It’s kind of odd to have somebody be able to survive that many years without being detected,” said Paul Steier, director of the Iowa Department of Transportation’s bureau of investigation, which helped crack the case. “He had basically started a new life.”

Carnes apparently used the identities of Louie Vance and William Henry Cox for years as he traveled from Chicago to Georgia to Washington state to Iowa, according to a complaint filed Monday. He convinced the Social Security Administration to grant him disability and retirement benefits under both

names for years. But after moving into a modest brick home in Waterloo, Iowa, last year, investigators say a mistake and new technology ended his long run from justice.

Facial recognition software, used by the Iowa DOT since 2008, flagged Carnes’ photo after he applied for a license in Vance’s name in March. The smiling face appeared to be the same man — black, 5 feet 11 inches tall and trim, with a mustache and the same large mole or birthmark on his forehead — who had obtained an Iowa license last year under Cox’s name.

Investigators soon determined the individual was using the Cox and Vance identities to receive Social Security benefits. Disability payments meant for Cox started in 2003, while retirement benefits intended for Vance began in 2009.

They were being deposited into a Boeing Employees Credit Union Account opened when Carnes lived in Washington. But authorities didn’t yet know who was behind the apparent scheme.

Investigators served a search warrant at Carnes’ Waterloo home in April, where they found birth certificates for Vance and Cox and other documents suggesting he was really Carnes, according to court documents. By his bed they found ammunition and a .380-caliber pistol, the same model found near

Carnes’ vehicle when he and an accomplice were arrested in the 1970 armed robbery of a female convenience store clerk in Winston-Salem, documents show.

Carnes was arrested in April following the warrant, and a fingerprint match soon verified his true identity, investigators say.

Relatives of Cox and Vance, meanwhile, told investigators that both were 5-year-old boys when they died in accidents seven decades ago, according to an affidavit signed by agent Juston Jennings of the Social Security Administration.

Cox, born in Denver, died in 1949.

Vance, born in Ruleville, Mississippi, died the previous year.

Carnes was three years into a 20year sentence when he escaped from Mecklenburg Correctional Center.

The escape is so old that the North Carolina Department of Public Safety doesn’t have any details about what happened, and the prison has been closed 16 years, agency spokesman Keith Acree said.

The month after Carnes escaped, someone applied for a Social Security card in Chicago for Vance, according to Jennings’ affidavit. In 1979, the Social Security Administration assigned a Social Security number for Cox. Carnes had also obtained a Georgia driver’s license in 1999 under Cox’s name, the affidavit said.

Girl found in Earlham ditch, pronounced dead at hospital EARLHAM (AP) — A 2-year-old girl was found face-down in a ditch filled with water in rural Dallas County and pronounced dead after being rushed to a Des Moines hospital.

Iowa State Patrol Sgt. Scott Bright says Deja Ramynke was playing with two other children Wednesday morning in front of a home about five miles north of Earlham when an adult noticed her missing.

Authorities were called and an Iowa State Patrol trooper found her face-down in a watery ditch, about 100 yards from the house.

The trooper started cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and the girl was taken by helicopter to Blank Children’s Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Leftover lingerie still lingers in boyfriend’s dresser drawers DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing my boyfriend for five months. He still has some of his ex-girlfriend’s lingerie in his dresser. When we first got involved, he showed it to me and asked if I wanted any. I said no thanks.

Now that I’m more invested in the relationship, I’d like him to get rid of it. He is currently out of town, traveling for a month. Would it be inappropriate for me to throw away these “trinkets” without consulting him?

— SETTING BOUNDARIES IN ARIZONA DEAR SETTING BOUNDARIES: Yes, I think it would be inappropriate. Although your boyfriend will probably tell you to go ahead and get rid of it if it bothers you, it would be more respectful if you clear it with him first.

DEAR ABBY: I was recently told by a neighbor that if he wasn’t married, he would make a pass at me. It made me feel kind of bad, especially the next day when I saw his wife.

My niece said I shouldn’t feel bad because it was a compliment and I should be glad I still attract attention at 60. My feeling is, if you think about it — it’s infidelity.

Am I wrong or too stringent in my thinking? — OLD-FASHIONED LADY IN OREGON DEAR OLD-FASHIONED: I think what your neighbor said was less “infidelity” than “lust in his heart.” But in a sense, he did make a pass because when he said what he did, he signaled to you that he could be interested.

Cut him some slack this time and chalk it up to having been paid a compliment. But if he says it again, tell him it bothers you because you like his wife and think it’s insulting to her.

DEAR ABBY: My fiance, “Todd,”

and I just became engaged and are starting to plan our wedding. The problem is his father is remarried to a terrible woman. Todd grew up with her, but he can’t stand her, and I feel the same way.

I gave her a chance, but she got drunk — something she does often — and insulted my mother. Obviously, my mother and Todd are my priorities.

Todd and I do not want her at our wedding because we’re afraid she’ll get drunk and make a scene, but how do we manage that? How do we make it clear that we love his dad and want him there, but his wife is not welcome? — NERVOUS BRIDE-TOBE IN FLORIDA DEAR NERVOUS: You and Todd should talk to his father and express your concerns that his wife’s unpredictable behavior could ruin your wedding. Ask how he thinks this should be handled. He may agree to attend alone or choose to skip the wedding. He could also promise you that if his wife gets loaded and becomes disruptive, he will escort her out of there immediately. (Suggest it to him if he’s unwilling to come without her.)

This Week at the Library

‘Monuments Men,’ e-books and more at library

By Nicole Lindstrom Newton Public Library Public Services Librarian Help Us Win Free E-books!

Help the Newton Public Library win free e-books by downloading three e-books or audiobooks to your smart phone, tablet or laptop today (or before July 1)! If the library beats their best month for e-book circulation, we can win free e-books, which means more titles for you to choose from and shorter wait times for new titles.

Take your reading on-thego this summer with downloadable e-books and audiobooks on your mobile devices.

Coffee & Movie: ‘Monuments Men’ The library will have a free movie showing of “The Monuments Men” at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday in the library meeting room.

Synopsis: Based on the true story of the greatest treasure hunt in history, the film is an action drama focusing on an unlikely World War II platoon, tasked by FDR with going into Germany to rescue artistic masterpieces from Nazi thieves and returning them to

their rightful owners. It would be an impossible mission: with the art trapped behind enemy lines, and with the German army under orders to destroy everything as the Reich fell, how could these guys — seven museum directors, curators and art historians, all more familiar with Michelangelo than the M-1 — possibly hope to succeed? But as the Monuments Men, as they were called, found themselves in a race against time to avoid the destruction of 1000 years of culture, they would risk their lives to protect and defend mankind’s greatest achievements. Starring George Clooney, Matt Damon and other big names.

Library Closed July 4 The library will be closed all day on July 4 to celebrate the holiday. We open on at 10 a.m.

King writes for new season of ‘Under the Dome’ WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) — The fictional Maine town of Chester’s Mill is “Under the Dome” for a second season, and author Stephen King, on whose novel the popular show is based, has written the first episode for this summer’s run.

The CBS miniseries that led the ratings much of last summer returns for another 13 episodes beginning Monday (10 p.m. EDT), with King telling viewers that no one in Chester’s Mill is assured of making it through the season alive.

“It’s an interesting challenge” picking up a plot after other writers have taken it in new directions, King said during a March interview on the set.

“I went back and looked at the last episode twice and I looked at the last scene about 15 times,” he said. “Here is where Joe and the other teenagers are outside the church. Here is Barbie on the scaffold with Big Jim and Junior. What is going to happen to these people?”

Working with other writers is different from writing a book that you do yourself, King said. “It’s a really collaborative effort and you have to be willing to give up some of your ideas for the other ideas and try to get something everyone is happy with.”

In “Under the Dome,” a dome suddenly encapsulates a small Maine town, cutting off its residents — and in the show’s opening, cutting a cow in half — from the rest of the country, leaving them to their own resources to survive.

US, Algeria in, Suarez out of World Cup RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — As Luis Suarez prepared to leave the World Cup in disgrace, Americans and Algerians were celebrating their places in the knockout rounds on a dramatic final day of the group stage on Thursday.

While some form of suspension for Suarez was guaranteed after the Uruguay striker bit Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder, few would have predicted one of the longest bans in the tournament’s history — nine international matches and four months from all football.

It was his third ban for biting after previous incidents in England and the Netherlands, and given the comments made by FIFA, it’s hard to see the Uruguayan football federation making much headway with its appeal.

“Such behavior cannot be tolerated on any football pitch and in particular not at a FIFA World Cup, when the eyes of millions of people are on the stars on the field,” Claudio Sulser, chairman of the FIFA disciplinary committee, said in a statement.

Several hundred Uruguayans, including President Jose Mujica, gathered at Montevideo’s airport to wait for Suarez’s return.

While he may no longer be in Brazil, his peers in Neymar of Brazil and Argentina’s Lionel Messi are still very much in the tournament — as are the United States and Algeria, which has finally reached the last 16 for the first time in its history.

The U.S. lost 1-0 to Germany on Thursday in its last match in Group G, but it still managed to qualify and line up a secondround game against Belgium on Tuesday in Salvador.

Ghana, which had a more realistic chance of beating the U.S. to second place behind the alreadyqualified German, missed its chance in a 2-1 defeat to Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal. Ronaldo scored the winner in a pyrrhic victory for what the world player of the year has accurately described as “probably just an average team.”

Kyle Busch wins NASCAR Truck race at Kentucky SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Kyle Busch made it 5 for 5 this season in the Camping World Truck Series, holding off Kyle Busch Motorsports teammate Darrell Wallace Jr. on Thursday night at Kentucky Speedway.

Busch has six straight series victories dating to last season and 40 overall in 120 starts. The Sprint Cup driver led the final 55 laps in the 150-lap race.

He also won at the 1.5-mile track in 2011.

“Really proud of Kyle Busch Motorsports finishing 1-2,” Busch said. “It’s a great testament for everything we’ve gone for and strived for. ... Qualifying 1-2 and finishing 1-2, I think I was more pumped for having a 1-2 finish, than winning, honestly.”

Wallace, the winner two weeks ago at Gateway in Madison, Illinois, finished 1.844 seconds behind Busch.

Wallace shook his head sideways when asked if he thought he had a chance to beat Busch on a late restart.

“He knew what he was doing,” Wallace said.

“He’s so cool to work with. He’s so good.”

Iowa Corn is giving away VIP race packages, ethanol JOHNSTON — To celebrate the eighth running of the Iowa Corn Indy 300, Iowa Corn is giving away 300 VIP race day packages. The VIP packages include tickets to the race, access to the Iowa Corn VIP tent with free food and drinks, limited edition race day T-shirts and time to socialize with other race fans. Other prizes include $25 ethanol gift cards from Kum & Go. The 2014 Iowa Corn Indy 300, presented

by DEKALB is Saturday, July 12, at the Iowa Speedway in Newton. IndyCars are powered by 85% ethanol with speeds over 200 mph.

“Iowa Corn sponsors the Iowa Corn Indy 300 to educate consumers about ethanol, specifically higher blends and E85,” said Shannon Textor, Director of Market Development. “Being able to inform consumers about the Iowa farmers ability to produce corn for key markets including; livestock, ethanol and exports is extremely important.”

IndyCar’s Hawksworth visits Iowa corn farm, learns about ethanol

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor Discovering the fuel spark which powers his Bryan Herta Autosport Dallara racecar, IndyCar Series rookie Jack Hawksworth made a visit to an Iowa farm Tuesday. The event was sponsored by Iowa Corn and Iowa Speedway as a lead-in to the July 12 Verizon IndyCar Iowa Corn 300 at the Newton race track.

“I’m looking forward to this visit,” Hawksworth told the Daily News in a Tuesday morning telephone inter-

view. “It’s interesting to find out about ethanol — it’s the fuel that powers my car. Corn is the spark and the farm is where it all starts.”

The Bradford, England native went to the third-generation family farm of Kyle Phillips Tuesday afternoon near Knoxville. They toured the farm and discussed the production of Iowan-made ethanol.

The Verizon IndyCar Series is the premier open-wheel racing series in the United States. The series features open-wheel, single-seat, open-cockpit cars with front and rear wings. The 500-700 horsepower Verizon IndyCar

Series cars feature a 2.2-liter, turbocharged, direct injected V-6 engine optimized to run 12,000 RPM and are powered by E85 fuel.

“I really love Iowa Speedway. Yes, I had a really good run there a year ago in the IndyL Lights Series, but not as good the year before in the Mazada Star Series,” Hawksworth said. “The oval track is one of the shortest tracks we run and it makes for some great racing.”

Hawksworth, a Sunocco Rookie of the Year candidate, is having a strong season in the IndyCar Series. He is 16th going into this weekend’s double

race at Houston and is third among rookies on the circuit.

In the 2013 Indy Lights Sukup 100 at Iowa, Hawksworth finished third and led 48 laps in the race. Hawksworth dominated the 2012 Star Mazda Series, but his run at Iowa that season ended in an accident.

Hawksworth joined Bryan Herta Autosport in 2014 to compete in the Verizon IndyCar Series. He will make his third run at Iowa Speedway July 12 in the Iowa Corn 300 sponsored by Iowa Corn and presented by DEKALB.

Cavs take Wiggins with No. 1 pick in NBA draft NEW YORK (AP) — With Andrew Wiggins at No. 1, it was a big night for Canada and Kansas. And it better be the right one for the Cavaliers.

Cleveland went north of the border to open the NBA draft for the second straight year Thursday night, hoping Wiggins works out better than Anthony Bennett.

Thrilled to go first and even happier when Jayhawks teammate Joel Embiid went two picks later, Wiggins beamed in his black tuxedo jacket with a white floral pattern.

“A thousand thoughts are going through my head right now,” Wiggins said. “It’s a dream come true.”

Bennett was injured last summer, came into the season out of shape and made no impact, one of the reasons the Cavs were back in this spot again.

But Wiggins seems a much more ready product after averaging a Kansas freshman-record 17.1 points. He might have ended up as the top pick anyway, but became the best option for the Cavs when Embiid suffered a stress fracture in his right foot shortly before the draft.

After making Canada the only country besides the U.S. to have consecutive No. 1 picks, Wiggins slipped on a maroon Cleveland hat, hugged

his supporters and went on stage to shake hands with Commissioner Adam Silver, who was calling the first round for the first time since replacing David Stern.

Milwaukee followed with another freshman, Duke forward Jabari Parker, who on Wednesday disputed that he was out of shape for his workout with Cleveland and performed poorly.

Some consider him the more NBAready player after an All-American season for the Blue Devils, and getting to play in Milwaukee puts him near his family in Chicago.

“I’m just very optimistic,” Parker said. “If it was 1, 2, put me at 60, just getting that opportunity, getting that chance of being in the NBA.” Embiid went third to Philadelphia, drawing loud cheers from the many red-and-blue dressed 76ers fans who made the trip to Barclays Center in Brooklyn, as well as from Philadelphia guard Michael Carter-Williams, last season’s Rookie of the Year who was sitting on the arena floor level.

The 76ers had two top-10 picks and could afford to take a chance on Embiid, the big man who may have ended up the top prize despite his lone season at Kansas ending early because of a bad back. But once the foot injury popped up during work-

outs, leaving his NBA debut uncertain after surgery, the two teams at the top passed.

“He worked so hard,” Wiggins said. “He didn’t let nothing get to him. He always stayed motivated. So I’m just proud. It’s a proud moment for Kansas.

Arizona forward Aaron Gordon went fourth to Orlando, which also had two picks in the lottery, followed

by Australian guard Dante Exum to Utah.

Then came two teams not used to picking so high: The Boston Celtics took Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart, with the rival Los Angeles Lakers following at No. 7 with Kentucky forward Julius Randle.

The 76ers took point guard Elfrid Payton of Louisiana-Lafayette at No. 10 with their second pick — they went into the draft with seven overall in the two rounds — and Orlando grabbed Croatian forward Dario Saric with its other lottery pick at No. 12.

In between, Denver took Creighton’s Doug McDermott, but the scoring star was already bracing for a reported trade to Chicago, asking officials if he was supposed to keep wearing the Nuggets hat. He was told he was until the deal was made.

Playoffs: Prep teams winding down regular season Continued from Page 1B Pairings are not set for baseball playoffs. Tournament assignments were released this week for all classes.

Newton’s Cardinals are in the Class 4A Substate 7 with Ankeny Centennial, Des Moines North and Des Moines Roosevelt, Johnston and Urbandale.

In Class 2A, Prairie City-Monroe is in District 13 with Albia, Cardinal of Eldon, Davis County,

Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont and Pella Christian hosted by EBF. Collins-Maxwell/Baxter and ColfaxMingo are in District 14 with host North Polk, Clarke, Des Moines Christian and Interstate 35. The District 13 and District 14 champions play at Indianola in a substate final.

Lynnville-Sully is in Class 1A District 11 with English Valleys, Iowa Mennonite, Keota, Montezuma, North Mahaska, Pekin, Sigourney and Tri-County of Thornburg.

Lynnville-Sully girls rally past Sigourney

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor SIGOURNEY — LynnvilleSully’s girls trailed 7-2 after two innings Thursday against host Sigourney in South Iowa Cedar League play. The Hawks did not give up another run while scoring 13 for a 15-7 victory.

The Class 1A second-ranked Hawks pushed four runs across in the third and the tying run in the fourth. Lynnville-Sully exploded for seven runs in the sixth inning and added a run in the seventh.

Lynnville-Sully’s girls improved to 18-0 in their quest for another SICL title while Sigourney dropped to 14-2 in league play. The Hawks are 26-1 overall.

The Hawk girls are slated to play Des Moines Christian tonight at home and then in the Marshalltown tournament Saturday.

Shelby Davis hammered out a home run and a single and had three RBIs. Kasiah Ehresman went 3-for4 with three singles while Madison Rasmusson, Becca Vos, Shayline Lukehart each had two singles.

Lysandra James doubled. Jade Van Rees and Kristal Beyer each had a single.

Rasmusson went the distance in the circle for the Hawks. She allowed eight hits, walked two and struck out nine.

Lynnville-Sully’s boys dropped a heartbreaker, 9-8, to Sigourney Thursday night. No details on the game were available at press time.

Race: NCWTS opens in Kentucky Continued from Page 1B Kyle Busch Motorsports drivers have won nine of the series’ last 12 races, with Wallace winning twice and Erik Jones once. Toyota has won 10 straight races, starting with Jones’ Phoenix victory last year.

“I’m really proud that my name is on the door,” Busch said. “I’m most proud of Eric Phillips (crew chief ) and all the guys, everyone at Kyle Busch Motorsports for all their hard work and dedication and everything they’ve done to build really good trucks. They’ve done a great job for

me.

“Seeing Darrell come home second tonight was pretty great, especially him getting back in traffic, like we both were and being able to methodically work his way back up to second.”

Ryan Blaney was third, followed

by Timothy Peters, Brad Keselowski, Matt Crafton, Austin Dillon, Ron Hornaday Jr., points leader Johnny Sauter and Ben Kennedy.

Sauter has an eight-point lead over ThorSport Racing teammate Crafton, the defending series champion and a two-time winner this season.

Soccer: Knockout stage starts Saturday Continued from Page 1B He now joins England’s Wayne Rooney and Italy’s Mario Balotelli as the star also-rans in a tournament that has sprung plenty of surprises.

Germany will play Algeria in Porto Alegre on Monday, a match that comes with some emotional baggage.

At the 1982 World Cup, Germany denied Algeria a place in the second round by playing out an infamous match with Austria that finished 1-0 to the Germans. The result, achieved by just knocking the ball around after the goal had

been scored, qualified the European neighbors and sent the Algerians home.

Thursday’s 1-1 draw with Russia has not only helped Algeria turn the page on one of the tournament’s darkest moments, it has also offered a chance to rip the page out completely with an unlikely revenge victory on Monday.

The end of the group stage has, meanwhile, underlined just how well the tournament has gone for teams from the Americas — which have filled half of the last 16 slots — and how big the disappointment has been for Europe and Asia.

North Mahaska and Pekin are district hosts. The District 11 final is at North Mahaska in New Sharon and the winner advances to play the District 12 champion in the substate final in Oskaloosa.

Iowa’s Class 4A, 3A, 2A and 1A state championship baseball tournaments are July 25- Aug. 2 at Principal Park in Des Moines.

Iowa’s Marble headed to Orlando ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The Orlando Magic have selected Iowa’s Devyn Marble with the No. 56 pick in the NBA draft.

Marble was named first Marble team All-Big Ten as a senior, averaging 17 points per game. He ranks fifth all-time in Iowa history with 1,694 points.

It was the third pick in the draft for Orlando. The 6-foot6 Marble joins Arizona’s Aaron Gordon, who was selected fourth overall and Louisiana-Lafayette’s Elfrid Payton, acquired by trading the No. 12 pick to Philadelphia.

Orlando received the 56th overall pick from Denver after trading swingman Arron Afflalo back to the Nuggets for point guard Evan Fournier earlier on Thursday.

Ballard tops CMB softball HUXLEY — Ballard shutout the visiting Raiders Thursday night, 7-0.

The game was close until Ballard (19-5) scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Taylor Ross and Megan Ritter had CMB’s only hits of the game.

The Raiders are now 12-12 overall. They host a tournament this weekend starting Saturday morning.

What does your home need to make it a better place for yourself and others? Fresh paint? A pantry reorganization effort? A chores chart to cover the cleaning basics? Any action you take in this vein will be lucky, as the new moon in Cancer smiles on domestic projects intended to make home a happy place.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 27). Your kindness and compassion will be a beacon of light in the world. You’ll help those in need who cannot fend for themselves. This will be among your proudest accomplishments.

A change of scenery in July introduces you to new friends and fresh business ventures. Pull out of a tired situation in September. Gemini and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 34, 1, 28, 32 and 14.

CANCER (June 22July 22). The one who professes over-the-top intentions and affections cares and loves less than the one who expresses

a restrained and reasonable course of action.

will bring astounding results in the long run.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Your ear for music will be developed through the sounds you hear today. Share your taste with friends and social networks. By doing so, you’ll bring joy to many.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Entertain risky ideas, but test the waters first. Tonight, your platonic friendships will have an enlightening and positive influence on your romantic life.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). The device that’s supposed to be making your life easier may be doing quite the opposite at the moment, but don’t lose hope. Once you’re over the technological learning curve, this will be brilliant.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll be tempted to spin off on a tangent, and though the decision is light on logic, there’s something in this instinct that will serve you well. So dare to follow your whimsy.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). You’re not underperforming; you just haven’t committed enough practice time to this activity yet.

Keep working. A small amount of daily effort

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Loved ones will test you. Wait until there’s really a reason to be concerned. Until then, stay laid-back.

Your easygoing attitude will make them feel comfortable enough to be their best selves.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Self-sufficiency is an attractive quality. Don’t ask your friends to help you unless it’s something you truly can’t do on your own. If it’s not, though, a Taurus will be especially keen to help.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It would be a shame to pine after talents you do not possess while you ignore the ones you do. Seek to embody

your own gifts more fully. You only have to be who you are to be successful.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). If your efforts seem scattered and ineffective, this is actually positive because it helps you get serious about what you need: a checklist and a methodical approach.

TAURUS (April 20May 20). You have a high standard for the work at hand, but you also realize that it’s a work in progress. Stay steady and trusting of the process. Your patience will help others to be patient.

GEMINI (May 21June 21). You’ll be in a creative mood, and if you can bring your vision to the things that would make your world more beautiful, you will be pleased with the outcome. A great artist suggested that if you can imagine it, it’s real.
