The land, which is 23.6 acres with a 16-acre lake, is located west of Monroe at the Highway 163 interchange.

“This is a property that has a good location. It is about 150 yards from our bike trail going from Prairie City to Monroe and down the road could be a parking area,” Jasper County Conservation Park Officer Jerry Ratliff said.

Donations were received from both the Jasper and Marion County chapters of Pheasant Forever, Outdoors Without Boundaries, Izaak Walton League of Prairie City, Leighton State Bank in Monroe and two private donors to assist in purchasing the property for the conservation department. Following the fundraising efforts the county will pay less than $20,000 for the land.

Man charged with sex abuse of Newton teen seeks mental health eval

County purchases Monroe property for Jasper County Conservation use

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

HIGH

A Newton man accused of sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl who became pregnant will undergo a mental health evaluation prior to his trial.

Jacob White, 25, was charged last July after Newton Police received a report about the abuse from the victim’s parents.

The initial police report said the parents learned of the abuse after reading her Facebook conversations. The victim’s mother was later charged with child endangerment after police determined she knew about the sexual abuse.

White, whose jury trial is set for July 15, was granted a compe-

tency evaluation from the court last week. The state resisted the motion and District Court Judge Terry Rickers said the court didn’t wish to delay the resolution of the case any further. However, Rickers said the court runs the risk of subjecting the case to an appeal if it denied the motion only because the case has been pending for nearly a year.

Court records show White was to immediately schedule an appointment with Capstone Behavioral Health in Newton. A Monday status hearing on the case is scheduled prior to his July 15 jury trial.

markings and painting pavement markings. The total cost for the milling work, painting edge lines and centerlines on various roads in Jasper County came to $281,808.41. For the painted pavement markings including symbols, the cost is $155,407.75.

In other business: • Shive-Hattery was approved to work on bidding proposals for demolition of the Jasper County Care Facility and former youth shelter at a price of $47,300.

• Bradley Martinson was approved as a seasonal skilled laborer in the secondary roads department. His start date is Monday at a pay rate of $14 per hour.

Several stop signs to be added to Newton streets

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News Several intersections throughout the city will now become regulated by stop or yield signs after the city council approved the additions Monday. Eleven intersections will now be controlled by stop signs with one new intersection receiving a yield sign.

“Citizens have expressed safety concerns at the intersection of East Second Street South and South Fifth Avenue East,” City Administrator Bob Knabel said in a council report. “City staff also reported safety concerns at two intersections located northeast of the Newton High School.”

Signs will be added at the following intersections: • At East Second Street South and South Fifth Avenue East northbound and southbound traffic currently stop. Because the line of sight is an issue when advancing from the stop signs the intersection will become a fourway stop to improve sight viewing safety issues.

• A stop sign will be added at the uncontrolled “T” intersection at East Fourth and a Half Street South and South Seventh Avenue East stopping traffic on South Seventh Avenue East.

• Traffic will stop on South Sixth Avenue East at the currently uncontrolled intersection of East Fifth Street South and

South Sixth Avenue East. The intersection has a poor line of sight.

• Several intersections will have stop signs added on East 14th Street South. To provide neighborhood uniformity, the Traffic Safety Committee looked at all intersection bounded by East 12th Street South, East 19th Street South, South Eighth Avenue East and South 13th Av-

enue East.

Because of higher traffic volume in that neighborhood East 14th Street South was selected as it runs continuous through the intersections. Current uncontrolled intersections at South Ninth Avenue East, South 10th Avenue East, South 11th Avenue East and South 12th Avenue SIGNS | 3A

New aquatic director hopes community will dive into pool programs

By Savannah Eadens Newton Daily News Having practically grown up in a pool, Shaphen Brooks feels right at home in her new position as the Newton YMCA Aquatics Director — her dream job.

Brooks was first introduced to a pool at 3 months old and started competitively swimming at the age of 3. She was ranked a top 10 swimmer when she was only 8 years old.

“My mom coached

the gymnastics here [YMCA] at the time and I can remember sneaking away from the gym during swim meets to watch the high school swimmers,” Brooks said.

“That’s when I knew I wanted to be a part of that. It’s always where I’ve felt the most comfortable. Everything just kind of disappears when I’m in the water, when I smell the chlorine.”

Area churches plan community outreach program Sunday More than 1,000 volunteers expected to participate

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News Eight local churches are coming together for a Community Reach Out Service Program Sunday. Created during a regular gathering of pastors, it was determined the group wanted to find a practical way to bless the community.

“We picked a day to meet and have a brief service in our own locations and from there go out and do some practical expressions of love and care for the town we love,” Community Heights Alliance Church John Patterson said.

The Newton Church of the Way, Community Heights Alliance Church, First Baptist Church, Our Savior Lutheran Church, The River, Assembly of God, The United Presbyte-

rian Church and Christian Life Church will all send out volunteers throughout the city to complete projects.

“Just simple projects that we can do that would help individuals out,” Patterson said. “We’re doing everything volunteer and donations to care for all of the costs. It is just a way to bless people.”

The churches looked from within and contacted the city to find individuals who could use an extra hand on projects around their homes. Cleaning gutters, removing brush, hauling away trash and painting fences along with painting a couple of houses and repairing a porch roof are among the projects set for the more than 1,000 volunteers that are expected.

The volunteers will be meeting at their own churches for a

brief service before setting to work from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Following the conclusion of work, all of the volunteers will meet at H.A. Lynn Stadium for lunch and testimonial.

A project that has already started is replacing sidewalks in front of 10 homes in town.

Crews began work Tuesday breaking up the concrete in preparation to pour new sidewalks for the homes.

The churches hope this event becomes an annual occurrence, like Red Pride Day which is organized by the school district.

“It should be a great time, we are really looking forward to it,” Patterson said.

Iowa United Methodists launch new ‘Change A Child’s Story’ initiative DES MOINES — One million books and a million hours of reading with children – that’s the goal of Iowa United Methodists in the next two years in a new initiative called, “Change a Child’s Story.”

Nearly twenty percent of Iowa’s United Methodist churches have already committed to the effort. More than 1,000 books have been collected and individual and organizational partnerships are already forming.

Around 1,600 lay and clergy, representing Iowa Conference’s congregations and their 175,000 members, unanimously and enthusiastically en-

dorsed the effort to make a difference in the lives of Iowa children at the recent statewide meeting.

In 2012, roughly 1-in-4 Iowa fourth-graders scored below proficient level on the state reading test. Research indicates that a quarter of kids who are behind in reading by the 4th grade will eventually drop out of school, making them more likely to experience other hardships, including jail time. The academic and economic futures of almost 90,000 young Iowans are at risk.

“Almost anyone can read to a child and help that child to read back to them,” the Rev. Clint Twedt-Ball of

erty and those who succeed in the educational journey of life.”

“We want these books to be a way that churches connect with kids in their neighborhood and their community,” said Twedt-Ball. “That’s where the second part of the goal comes in, to invest a million hours in these children’s futures.

Reading is a great way to build relationships.”

The task force will be working to help churches get involved by connecting them to local resources and agencies.

Brooks has been involved at the YMCA for several years, teaching swim lessons, water aerobic classes, and has coached the Penguins swim team for the past two years.

“The position as the aquatics director just kind of fell into my lap,” Brooks said. “I’ve wanted this job for a really long time and they somehow figured out how to make the position work. It is truly my passion, and I think that is what set me apart for the job.”

Brooks started the position June 1. Her duties as aquatics director include coaching swim teams, supervising and maintaining the pool, developing pool schedules and

work schedules and keeping up on certificates. She is also in charge of lifeguard and swim teachers. Brooks said she is currently working on getting a CPO (Certified Pool Operator), which will be useful in the maintenance of the pool systems.

“Shaphen has the background, experience and the best personality for the job,” said Newton YMCA CEO Frank Buckley. “She was just overall the best fit into the job here at the Y. I knew her through swimming at Newton, coaching the Penguins swimming as well as her involvement with aerobics classes. She was a great candidate for the position and we’re thrilled to have her here.”

Brooks said that since starting her position, the staff has been talking about how to make the program better.

“We need to promote the pool and show the community that it can be used for a good purpose,” she said. “We need to boost numbers in fitness classes and swim lessons ... swimming is a lifelong skill, and the community needs to realize that.”

Brooks said she hopes to bring awareness and reach out to people who are afraid to get their feet wet. Many people, she said, are afraid to ask for help when they don’t know how to swim.

“People don’t realize how much you can do in pool,” said Brooks. “There is water

At the intersection of South Ninth Avenue West and West Seventh Street there is an “L” interaction and the street is at a width of 25 feet.

Women’s soccer brings out ‘double threat’ haters

By Jason. W. Brooks Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Wednesday | July 8, 2015

When a Kansas City MLS men’s soccer player was given a yellow card for his selfie taken with fans after a goal last year, not many considered it to be bad for the sport. Just a sign of the times.

However, when players flop down onto the turf and seem to exaggerate injury in World Cup matches, it draws the ire of the social media world and brings more hate on a game that seems to draw the most hate of anything in the sports world. More importantly, its brought out haters — mostly men — who don’t enjoy watching women’s athletics at all.

The anti-soccer, anti-women combination is quite brutal. Commentary on the U.S. women’s recent run through the World Cup tournament, and on women’s sports in general, seem more centered around the entertainment value of the sport and how tough or entertaining it might be, than the effort or skill level of the players.

Contrast it with commentary

on American football, which rarely centers on whether NFL or NBA games are interesting to watch (they’re not, really), and more on elements like concussion and illegal contact rules, and how “wussification” such as quarterback-protection rules ruin the sport by making it less barbaric.

No other sport seems to draw the wrath of its detractors.

There must be people who don’t find curling, downhill skiing or motocross very interesting — particularly when it comes to TV viewing — yet there is little outcry during the rare moments these sports get their moments of exposure every few years, such as during the Olympic Games.

Even sports that are popular nearly everywhere except the U.S., such as cricket, gain no haters here. I’ve never heard Americans talk about male cricket athletes as not requiring the strength, speed or coordination needed to play a “real” sport, such as football, basketball or hockey.

Even the WNBA and women’s boxing don’t get the kind

of criticism women’s soccer receives. It’s easy to find a guy who tries to compare women to the slam-dunking, fast-breaking male hoopsters, or who bemoan the skill and technique ladies apparently don’t often have on the court — but soccer and women at the same time? Well, that brings out every type of hater around.

Americans rarely learn enough about soccer to know the difference between MLS, international and European styles of play and officiating — partly due to a often-unspoken presumption that soccer isn’t “American” enough. Sadly, seeing millions of children, teenagers and adults playing soccer on a weekly basis isn’t enough to convince Americans the sport is not gender-specific.

Maybe, as more and more Americans experience soccer the way I have, it will seem more germane to the nation. I played a couple of years of youth soccer in my last years of elementary school, while was following a local team,

the Washington Diplomats, and I have tried to follow teams wherever I have lived, but lack of national media exposure hurt the sport of soccer — especially in the early pre-Internet years of cable TV. My fairly unique experience watching the men’s team at University of New Mexico in the mid2000s, as the men’s soccer team was rising to national prominence, helped my enthusiasm. If you’re not a soccer fan, being at your alma mater as the crowd rushes the field, after an overtime “Golden Goal” to advance to the College Cup, will certainly help you love the sport.

The sport can reach even more fans with better planning and marketing, like Saturday-night high school and college matches, less “flopping” and more personal connections to players and teams are the kinds of things that might help the women’s game escape its most-hated status.

The most idiotic comment in presidential history

Letter to the Editor

Join the fight against the pipeline Joe Reutter Boone Since the pipeline project was announced and I received notice that my land was in its path, I have become more aware of the problems in the oil and gas industry. The Yellowstone River and Santa Barbara beach pipeline leaks are two recent examples of industry problems. How would you like to have crude oil spills like those in the Missouri, Raccoon, Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers?

Looking more into the pipeline industry, I found welding inspection fraud at an Indiana natural gas pumping station.

The offending inspector only received 40 hours of community service for phoney inspections.

This was the kind of thing that can kill people. Do you want to live, work, or farm near a pipeline built by a company that doesn’t care about landowners?

I don’t, and this is not a done deal. Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement (Iowa CCI) is committed to legally intervening in the approval process for this hazardous in-

frastructure project and will be organizing meetings for everyday community members to get involved with the fight against the polluting pipeline.

I am a member of Iowa CCI in order to empower communities across Iowa and take a stand for the needs and concerns of everyday Iowans like you and me. If you are also concerned about the dangers Iowa citizens face due to the Bakken Oil Pipeline, contact Iowa CCI at 515-282-0484 or iowacci@iowacci.org and join us in upholding your community’s values.

Legislation could end unwanted medical treatment

By Daniel R. Wilson Roughly 25 million Americans have been subjected to unwanted medical treatment at some point in their lives, and that means we have a healthcare system that is not listening to patients. We all say we believe in patient-centered health care, and now we have a bill in the U.S. Congress that would put our money where our mouths are. Literally.

Senators Mark Warner (D-VA) and Johnny Isakson (R-GA) introduced legislation this month that would make sure Medicare recipients and their doctors know how much or how little treatment those patients would want as they approach the end of life. The Care Planning Act of 2015 would specifically create a Medicare benefit for people facing grave illness to work with their doctor to define, articu-

late and document their personal goals for treatment. Doctors will be rewarded with reimbursement for helping patients make very important end-of-life decisions when there is time and space to do so thoughtfully, before a crisis and when the patient can advocate for herself.

Given my organization’s commitment to improving care and expanding choice at the end of life, we believe this legislation sets the right goals and is smart about how it achieves them.

The Care Planning Act will go a long way toward ensuring that once a Medicare recipient has determined and documented their treatment preferences, those preferences go with them. Ideally, everyone has an advance directive completed, but only a minority of us does, and they are often ignored, anyway. The Warner/Isakson legislation creates

additional layers of insurance that the patient’s wishes WILL be honored, across a variety of settings. It brings in the patient’s family members, friends, religious figures and wider health care team to create a community of individuals who will understand and support the choices the patient makes. It even allows for training of people in the patient’s inner circle of family and caregivers in helping implement their plan when the time comes.

In short, this legislation recognizes that having our preferences documented is not enough. It is built around the understanding that people need a care plan they create in collaboration with loved ones and experts alike, and that the plan needs to be regularly revisited.

Daniel R. Wilson is National and Federal Programs Director, Compassion & Choices.

On Monday, President Obama spoke about his new strategy to take on the terrorist entity Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

In doing so, he explained that the By Ben Shapiro battle against that terrorist group — a group he had once termed “JV” — would amount to a “generational struggle.” Why would defeating a ragtag army of primitives take generations? Because, Obama explained, “This is not simply a military effort.

Ideologies are not defeated by guns. They’re defeated with better ideas.”

To cap off this airsickness bag of gobbledygook, Obama then concluded, “We will never be at war with Islam.”

So let’s get this straight.

A group Obama said he would degrade and destroy can only be degraded and destroyed with ideas.

Its own ideologies — its animating force, according to Obama — have nothing to do with Islam. The cretinism here resembles a perfect Jenga tower of fatuity: Remove one phrase, and the whole structure tumbles.

Americans should gawk at the sheer wonder of Obama’s applesauce here. Obama’s bad acid trip bumper sticker foreign policy — “Better Ideas Beat Bad Ideologies” over a Grateful Dead peace symbol — reeks of third grade oral presentations. It takes more than great ideas to beat ideologies — it takes heavy weaponry. The victims of the Holocaust didn’t sit around thinking to themselves, “Golly, if only we’d been able to come up with a better idea than Nazism, that Hitler sure would have stopped all this nonsense.” America didn’t end

World War II by dropping informational leaflets. We dropped warning leaflets, then bombs. Large ones.

Atomic ones. No armed ideologues in history have been defeated solely by better ideas — at least not before decades of murder, repression and evil.

So what did Obama actually mean? It simply lacks credibility to read the president’s comments at face value: No sentient human being could be this dull. He meant that ideologies aren’t defeated by American guns, because American guns are backed

by American ideas. And American ideas are by nature bad, evil, racist, xenophobic, homophobic, centophobic, and, presumably, arachnophobic.

Sure, American ideas backed with guns won World War II — but hey, pretty much any ideas backed with guns would have defeated Nazism, amirite?

(Well, except for the ideas of the British, the French, the Czechs, the Polish...)

When it comes to fighting the ideology of ISIS, however, Obama finds Americanism insufficient, since Americanism creates ISIS ideology through Islamophobia.

That’s why Americans with guns can’t defeat ISIS, says Obama: Americans with guns create ISIS. Only internationalism can win the day!

So far, that internationalism has been a massive failure. Of course, internationalism is always a massive failure, because it isn’t an idea, any more than “diplomacy” is an idea. Both are tools, to be used by those who actually have something to say, something to fight for.

But President Obama despises traditional Americans who have something to say or fight for. They are the problem. He is the cure. And he would rather disarm those Americans and their rotten ideas than let them loose with guns against those who slaughter babies.

Daughter who’s hooking up needs reality check from mom DEAR ABBY: In recent conversations with my daughter, who is away in college, she opened up to me that she is hooking up. She introduced herself to this guy two weeks ago, and she’s already having sex with him. I tried to caution her about the dangers of such relationships and how harmful they can be physically and emotionally. She sounded annoyed and said it is her body and she has a right to do whatever she pleases.

I am shocked and disappointed.

She’s the first person in our family to go to college. If I tell her father, he would disown her. I am beside myself. My younger daughter will soon be applying to college, and now I’m wondering whether I should allow her to go away, given her sister’s behavior.

How should I handle this? Should I tell her father? — STRESSED OUT IN NEW YORK DEAR STRESSED OUT: When you are less emotional, talk with your daughter and advise her to visit the student health center to be checked for STDs and get on a program of birth control. Your daughter is no longer a child. She is a young woman, and sexual activity among college students is not unheard of. While I agree with you that hopping into bed with someone you have known for only two weeks is premature, if she’s able to maintain her grade point average, there is no reason to alarm her father. If she isn’t, then bring her home.

I assume you have discussed sex and family standards with your younger daughter. If that’s the case, it would be unfair to punish or restrict her because you are disappointed in her older sister.

DEAR ABBY: My soon-to-be daughter-in-law complains about my son to me. She’s not happy with his job or his boss, but he is. She says he

embarrasses her and gets upset when his work must come first. Abby, my son is in charge of the company.

I don’t understand why she would marry someone she feels this way about. I struggle with whether to talk to my son about it or not. I’m afraid he will say something to her and she will be upset with me. He is a happy young man, and it seems his fiancee only wants to change him. He’s almost 30, and I don’t see him changing to her satisfaction. Please advise.

— BITING MY TONGUE FOR NOW IN ARIZONA DEAR BITING: Your son’s fiancee is complaining to the wrong person. Before talking to your son about her complaints, talk to her about them and suggest she talk to him. If your son is happy in his job, happy with his employers and being well compensated for his work ethic and ability, she should be happy for him, not embarrassed. It’s important that he know how she feels before the wedding, because if he learns about it afterward, there will be problems.

However, if she’s unwilling to communicate her feelings to your son, then let him know she has “concerns” about his job and suggest he discuss them with her before they say any “I do’s.”

Woman pleads not guilty in day care theft

at Statue of Liberty

FOREST CITY — A trial has been scheduled next month for a 41-year-old woman accused of stealing from a northern Iowa preschool and day care where she’d worked as director. Brenda Steinman, of Northwood, has pleaded not guilty to charges of theft, fraudulent use of a credit card and with records tampering. Her trial is set to begin Aug. 19. Court documents say she used company credit cards for her personal expenses and took other funds from Lake Mills Community Preschool & Daycare.

DUBUQUE — The Dubuque City Council approved a financial incentives package for police officers and firefighters buying homes in the city’s downtown area.

Council members voted Monday to create a program providing no-interest, forgivable loans to officers and firefighters to buy and rehabilitate houses in the downtown urban renewal district.

OSKALOOSA — The Statue of Liberty has a certain glow about her — thanks to a new lighting system.

Onlookers and officials stood on the grounds and boats gathered in the waters around Liberty Island on Tuesday night in New York to see the new ground lights get turned on. The system uses light-emitting diodes or LEDs. It comes from Musco Lighting of Oskaloosa. Musco systems also are in place at the Washington Monument, the White House and the Flight 93 National Memorial.

USDA prepares for possible return of bird flu this fall The Associated Press DES MOINES — Two top veterinary officials with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and farmers affected by the bird flu outbreak said Tuesday it will take increased surveillance, improved farm security and more money to fight off a possible fall return of the disease that devastated chicken and turkey flocks.

The U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee held a livestreamed hearing to discuss the response to the outbreak that has killed 48 million birds since early March in 15 states, including hardest-hit Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska.

With no new out-

breaks in three weeks, it appears the virus has been eradicated for now, said Dr. David Swayne, director of a USDA poultry research laboratory in Georgia.

He joined John Clifford, the deputy administrator of veterinary services for the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service at USDA, in discussing the outbreak and how the government is prepared to handle a possible recurrence.

The government believes waterfowl carry the virus and dropped it over Midwestern farms during the spring migration north. Hotter, dryer weather kills the virus, but scientists worry it could return with

cooler fall weather and the southward migration.

The USDA has prepared for an unlikely worst-case scenario, Clifford said, developing a plan robust enough to handle cases at up to 500 farms in all 20 states with major poultry flocks.

The government has increased surveillance of wild birds to see where the virus is present and is working with industry groups to establish improved biosecurity, including controlling movement of staff between barns, cleaning equipment more thoroughly and training personnel on how the virus spreads, according to the officials’ testimony.

One reason the virus

spread so quickly was it took too long to euthanize the millions of sick birds who had flu, which made spreading more likely, Clifford said.

The government hired contractors to suffocate turkeys with foam or use a gas to asphyxiate chickens. At the beginning of the outbreak, crews couldn’t keep up.

Brad Moline, a turkey farm owner from Manson, Iowa, testified that he lost 56,000 turkeys and two-thirds of his income for the year. He said some of the government’s hired contractors were not property trained, and the USDA failed initially to communicate steps farmers needed to take to prevent spread of the virus.

Clinton jabs GOP field on immigration IOWA CITY (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton said a Republican in the White House would mark a “big U-turn” for the nation and assailed the GOP presidential field’s stance on an immigration overhaul.

Asked about Jeb Bush, the Democratic presidential candidate said: “He doesn’t believe in a path to citizenship. If he did at one time, he no longer does.”

In an interview Tuesday with CNN, Clinton said the Republican presidential contenders range “across a spectrum of being either grudgingly welcome or hostile toward immiClinton grants.”

Campaigning in one of the most liberal pockets of Iowa, Clinton offered herself up as a Democratic standard-bearer at a time when her main Democratic rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, has generated big crowds and stoked interest among progressives. Clinton also addressed criticism that she has avoided scrutiny, taking questions from reporters and then sitting down for her first national television interview since starting her campaign.

Clinton cited her husband’s eight years in office as a time of strong economic growth that helped not only the wealthy but the poor as well. She said Republicans afterward left President Barack Obama to tend to an economic crisis.

“Right now our country deserves to keep moving forward, not to do a big U-turn going back to where we came from,” Clinton said at the Iowa City Public Library. “That didn’t work before. It won’t work again.”

She told CNN she planned to outline some of her economic policies Monday.

Clinton has said any immigration legislation needs to include a path to “full and equal citizenship.” She has defended Obama’s use of executive actions to shield millions of immigrants living in the U.S. illegally from deportation.

In the interview, Clinton said she was “disappointed” in Republican candidate Donald Trump for his disparaging comments about Mexican immigrants along “with the Republican Party for not responding immediately and saying, ‘Enough, stop it.’”

Clinton demurred in discussing the possibility of another Bush-Clinton campaign — Bill Clinton defeated President George H.W. Bush in 1992 — but lumped former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in with other Republicans who have opposed immigration overhauls in Congress.

US agent’s gun used in San Francisco pier slaying SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A law enforcement official said the weapon used in the shooting death of a woman on a San Francisco pier belonged to a federal agent — the latest twist in a case that has become a flashpoint in the country’s debate over immigration.

The official, who had been briefed on the matter, said Tuesday that a check of the gun’s serial number shows it belonged to a federal agent. The official — who was not authorized to speak publicly about the case and spoke on condition of anonymity — declined to elaborate.

The San Francisco Police Department, which is investigating the case, refused to comment on the disclosure. The suspect, Juan Francisco Lopez Sanchez, has been deported to his native Mexico five times and is suspected of living in the United States illegally when Kathryn Steinle, 32, was gunned down last week while strolling with her father along San Francisco’s popular waterfront area.

Prosecutors seek 3.5 years in prison for ex-Auschwitz guard

AP Photo People watch as El Tajo y La Reina fighting bulls and revelers run during the running of the bulls, at the San Fermin festival, in Pamplona, Spain, Wednesday, July 8. Revelers from around the world arrive in Pamplona every year to take part in some of the eight days of the running of the bulls.

BERLIN (AP) — German prosecutors on Tuesday sought a 3.5-year prison sentence for a 94-yearold former SS sergeant who served at the Auschwitz death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland, saying his role there made him an accessory to murder.

Oskar Groening has admitted guarding prisoners’ baggage after they were unloaded from cattle cars onto the camp’s ramps, and collecting and counting money stolen from the new arrivals and sending it to Berlin.

Prosecutors told the Lueneburg state court in their closing arguments that his role helped the camp function, and he should be convicted of 300,000 counts of accessory to murder for those killed while he was there.

If convicted, the possible punishment ranges between three and 15 years in prison.

Court spokeswoman Frauke Albers said that because Groening was previously investigated in the 1970s but authorities then shelved the case, prosecutors also recommended that he have between 14 and 22 months deducted from his sentence because he wasn’t granted a speedy trial.

Unusually for trials of former Nazi camp guards, Groening has been open about his past throughout the proceedings.

When the trial began in April, Groening said he felt moral guilt but it was up to the court to decide if he was legally guilty of a crime.

Spain: 2 Americans, 1 Briton gored in first Pamplona bull run PAMPLONA, Spain (AP) — Two Americans and a Briton were gored and eight other people were injured Tuesday as thousands of daredevils dashed alongside fighting bulls through the streets of Pamplona on the first bull run of the annual San Fermin festival, organizers said.

Mike Webster, a 38-yearold occupational therapist from Gainesville, Florida, was gored as he ran with the bulls in Pamplona for the 38th time in 11 years.

San Fermin’s media office said he was gored in the armpit, and Webster told The Associated Press from his hospital bed that he hasn’t decided whether he’ll run again because he first needs

to discuss the issue with his wife.

Also gored were a 27-yearold Californian identified by the media office only by his initials, D.M.O., and a 30-year-old Briton with the initials A.B.O. Neither was in serious condition.

Three other Americans were among the eight others injured, most with bruises from falls and crowd crushes during the nationally televised run that lasted just over two minutes.

The nine-day fiesta in Pamplona, which features 24-hour street partying, was made famous in Ernest Hemingway’s 1926 novel “The Sun Also Rises” and attracts thousands of foreign tourists.

The daily runs see people

dashing with six bulls along a narrow, 930-yard course from a holding pen to the city’s bullring. The bulls are then killed by professional matadors in bullfights each afternoon.

Bull runs are a traditional part of summer festivals across Spain.

Dozens are injured each year, mostly in falls.

Two men have died recently after being gored by bulls in Spanish festivals — one Saturday in the eastern town of Grao de Castellon and another June 24 in the southwestern town of Coria.

In all, 15 people have died from gorings in Pamplona since record-keeping began in 1924 for the San Fermin festival.

Cardinals capture road victory in 10 innings

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

DES MOINES — Taking advantage of what their opponent gave them, Newton High’s Cardinals scored the winning run on two errors and a sacrifice bunt in the top of the 10th inning. The Cardinals turned away a Des Moines East Scarlets’ rally to claim a 4-3 victory Tuesday.

The Cardinals wiped out a 2-0 deficit with a run in the fourth and two more in the fifth, but the Scarlets tied the game at 3-all in the sixth.

The teams played three more scoreless innings.

In the top of the 10th, senior Jeff Stanton reached on a Scarlet error and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by junior Duncan Lee. Senior Tyler Wood hit the ball hard to the third-base side of the infield and reached safely on an error, which allowed Stanton to score from second.

Sophomore Connor Gholson threw nine innings as Newton’s starting pitcher. Jordan Travis, senior, took over in relief for the bottom of the 10th.

East’s Chino Alcala, who was 4-for-4 in the game, singled to right field. The Cardinals recorded the first out on

a fielder’s choice forcing Alcala out at second base. Calob Dicks singled to put two on and one out for the Scarlets.

Travis coaxed two ground balls for fielder’s choices by the Cardinal defense to retire the Scarlets and win the game.

“A big win for us,” said Dustin Brisel, Newton head coach. “We had pitching, defense and timely hitting today.

Coming here and getting a win against a team like East, which plays the competition we’ll be facing in the playoffs is huge.”

Errors plague Tigerhawks in playoff loss

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MARTENSDALE — Defeating a stateranked team which has been to the state tournament seven seasons in a row is hard enough.

But it gets much harder when you commit seven errors.

Giving 14th-ranked Martensdale-St. Marys extra outs was too much for Colfax-Mingo’s softball team to overcome Tuesday as the Blue Devils began their march to an eighth consecutive state tourney appearance with a 12-0, five-inning win in Class 1A Region 6 action.

The Tigerhawks came into the game winners of four of their last five games but managed only two hits against Blue Devil starter Kaci Sherwood.

Rookies Bryant, Pederson make All-Star team; A-Rod left out NEW YORK (AP) — Less than three months after making his major league debut, Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant is an All-Star, one of two rookies selected along with Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson.

But there was no room on the roster for Alex Rodriguez, enjoying a renaissance in his return to the New York Yankees following a season-long

drug suspension.

Dodgers catcher Yasmani Grandal also was a first-time selection Monday for the July 14 game in Cincinnati.

Grandal beBryant came the third All-Star this year who served

a drug-related suspension for conduct connected to the Biogenesis of America clinic.

Seattle slugger Nelson Cruz and St. Louis shortstop Jhonny Peralta were elected by fans to start.

Albert Pujols of the Angels will start at first base for the AL in place of Detroit’s Miguel Cabrera, who injured a calf muscle Friday. Pittsburgh’s Andrew McCutchen will start in the NL outfield

instead of Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton, who broke his hand on June 26.

The 23-year-old Bryant made his big league debut April 17 and began Monday with a .279 average, 12 homers and 49 RBIs. “Obviously, I’ve been at some All-Star Games, but I don’t think anything can compare to making the major league All-Star team,” he said. “It is kind of weird right

now. We have a game in an hour, so I’m trying not to get too excited and whatnot, but obviously it’s pretty cool.”

He’s open to participating in the Home Run Derby.

“It’s all happened so quick.

I’ve just been having so much fun with this, my baseball career,” Bryant said. “Right now, it’s a pretty special feeling for me.”

Tigerhawks: Struggle at the plate, in the field in regional defeat Continued from Page 1B story this season. I hate to say they check out. But the inner discipline just wasn’t there.

That ties into leadership, and that has been a problem this year for us. We have to find some leaders.”

Freshman Ries Wilson got the Blue Devils in order in the first but back-to-back hits and a pair of Tigerhawk errors allowed Martensdale-St. Marys to take a 2-0 lead in the second inning.

After another scoreless inning from Wilson, the Blue Devils, who placed fourth at last year’s Class 1A State Tournament, tacked on two more runs in the fourth to go up 4-0.

The fifth inning featured six hits and four C-M errors and the Blue Devils sent 12 batters to the plate and finished the game early following an eightrun frame.

Tuesday’s loss mirrored the Tigerhawks’ game two setback against Nevada last Friday.

Even though Colfax-Mingo won its four previous games, Poulter didn’t like how his team played in the regular season finale against the Cubs.

“As a coach and an observer, the talent level and ability is there it seems,” Poulter said.

“It’s getting yourself to do the small things well all the time, staying focused and grinding it out. When things were going good, they were going good.

But when they were going bad, we didn’t get back to the basics. We kind of play like we are frustrated.”

Martensdale-St. Marys, which improved to 12-2 at home, put pressure on the Colfax-Mingo defense with

Troy Hyde/Daily News Colfax-Mingo freshman Rhiannon Haley laces a ground ball to second base during the Tigerhawks’ 12-0, five-inning Class 1A Region 6 loss to No. 14 Martensdale-St. Marys on Tuesday night. Colfax-Mingo ends its season at 10-23.

several bunts. The Blue Devils took extra bases on errors and used their speed as advantage as they advanced to Wednesday’s regional quarterfinal game against Pleasantville.

“They were the best small ball team we have seen this year,” Poulter said.

“We played that aspect of the game pretty well. And Ries (Wilson) pitched pretty well. We just didn’t make plays behind her, plays we normally make.”

Offensively, the Tigerhawk bats didn’t have an answer for Sherwood, who improved to 14-3 on the year.

Wilson hit a hard single up the middle in the first inning and then eighth-grader Colbee Cunningham smacked an infield single to the hole between shortstop and third base

in the fifth.

Other than that, the Tigerhawks (10-23) had just one other base runner in the game.

“I don’t care if we swing at the first pitch, but if we do that, it needs to be a pitch that we can drive,” Poulter said.

“But we were swinging at first pitches like we were defending with two strikes. We were off balance and popped it up or hit a weak ground ball.

“We have worked on that kind of plate discipline, but it didn’t show up tonight.”

Kaitlyn Shad, Jamie Jordan, Nicole Shutt, Hannah Sweet and Alayna Olson had two hits apiece for the Blue Devils, who recorded two one-run wins against Pleasantville earlier this season.

Jordan and Riley Verwers each had two RBIs and Shutt,

Sweet and Olson all scored two runs.

Notebook The Tigerhawks lose two seniors from this year’s team — first baseman Erin Earles and outfielder Sara Lahart. ...

Wilson took the loss in the circle and ended her season at 6-7. ... The game was played Tuesday after getting rained out Monday. ...

McWhirter, Caple guide Raiders to win over Woodward-Granger

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News COLLINS — Sophomore Hunter McWhirter had four hits, four RBIs and two runs and the Collins-Maxwell/ Baxter baseball team rallied past Woodward-Granger and recorded its first non-conference victory of the season McWhirter Tuesday.

McWhirter was 4-for-4 at the plate with a walk, while Creighton Caple had three hits and scored three runs to help the Raiders improve to 7-14 on the season.

CMB trailed 2-0 after two but plated runs in four straight innings to complete the comeback. The Raiders trimmed the lead to 2-1 after three and then scored four

in the fourth, two in the fifth and two in the sixth to pull away.

Wo o d w a r d - G r a n g e r scored a run in the sixth and seventh to shorten the gap, but that’s as close as it.

The Raiders had 10 hits in the game and stranded 12 runners on base. Seth Balke, Brady Kemp and Nate Bishop each had a hit, while Spencer Gauch drove in two runs and Tucker Maxwell scored two runs. Bishop and Kemp each scored a run.

Kemp (1-1) earned his first win of the year on the mound.

He tossed the first four innings and allowed two runs on five hits while walking four and fanning two. Caple threw the final three innings, surrendering two runs on three hits and walking two and striking out two.

Race Brant had two hits and two RBIs to lead the Hawks, while Alex Bodermann had two hits. Wood-

ward-Granger (15-10) had four errors and stranded six on base.

Dylan Garland took the loss for the Hawks, but only allowed one earned run in 3 2/3 innings.

Both CMB and Woodward-Granger will play in Class 2A District 14 when the tournament begins Saturday and Tuesday’s game was a potential district final preview.

The Raiders travel to Madrid at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.

That is a first-round district preview as the teams open the postseason at 5 p.m. Saturday in Ogden.

Pella 14, PCM 0, 6 innings PRAIRIE CITY — The Mustangs were held to only three hits at the plate against Class 3A No. 1 Pella in non-conference action Tuesday night.

Pella (23-4) scored at least

one run in all six innings and ended the game early with an eight-run six inning. It was the Dutch’s third straight win.

Clay Cooper, Ethan Thomas and Noah Clark each had a hit.

Austin Brown (3-3) started on the mound and allowed five runs — three earned — on eight hits in four innings.

He struck out three and walked none.

The Mustangs (6-16) will try to end their four-game losing streak Wednesday at home against Lynnville-Sully.

They travel to Pella Christian for the regular season finale on Thursday. Both games start at 7:30 p.m.

Colfax-Mingo defeats Iowa Christian, loses to Gilbert The Colfax-Mingo baseball team split two games Tuesday, losing to Gilbert in Heart of Iowa Conference play, 15-1, before defeating

All-Stars Continued from Page 1B Pederson, who also expects to be in the derby, had 20 homers but was hitting just .234. He was especially pleased fellow players elected him.

A record six Royals were picked for the game, with players electing pitcher Wade Davis, and AL manager Ned Yost of Kansas City selecting reliever Kelvin Herrera. They join Royals outfielders Lorenzo Cain and Alex Gordon, catcher Salvador Perez and shortstop Alcides Escobar, who were elected on Sunday as starters.

Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas is among the five players on the AL fan ballot for the 34th and final roster spot. Rodriguez is not.

The three-time MVP, who turns 40 on July 27, has 16 home runs and 47 RBIs for the Yankees after missing last year because of a drug suspension.

The league that wins the All-Star Game gets home-field advantage in the World Series.

Rodriguez is hitting .284 during a season in which he passed Willie Mays for fourth on the career home run list and topped 3,000 hits. But

Texas’ Prince Fielder, who was elected by players, joined Cruz as the only DHs on the AL roster.

Yankees reliever Dellin Betances was elected by players, and first baseman Mark Teixeira was picked to fill Cabrera’s roster spot. But this will be the first All-Star Game with no Yankees starters since 1999.

St. Louis tops the NL with five players. Peralta was elected to start along with outfielder Matt Holliday, who isn’t sure when he’ll be activated from the disabled list. Catcher Yadier Molina and reliever Trevor Rosenthal

were elected by players, and NL manager Bruce Bochy of San Francisco picked pitcher Michael Wacha.

Cincinnati closer Aroldis Chapman was elected by players and is the second member of the hometown Reds on the NL roster. Third baseman Todd Frazier was elected to start.

Pittsburgh pitcher A.J. Burnett, in his 17th and what he says will be his final season, became an All-Star for the first time. At 38, he’s the oldest player headed to the game.

Washington outfielder Bryce Harper, a three-time All-Star at age 22, is the

Iowa Christian Academy, 6-5, later in the day.

Gilbert (26-4 overall, 17-1 in HOIC) won its fifth straight game by scoring five in the first, five in the second and four in the third.

Barrett Schonefeld struck out eight and allowed one unearned run on one hit for Gilbert.

The Tigerhawks ended a nine-game losing streak with a 6-5 home win over Iowa Christian Academy.

Colfax-Mingo (3-23, 0-18) got a complete-game performance from junior Colin Lourens, who defeated ICA on the mound for the second straight season.

The Tigerhawks, who improved to 3-2 against 1A schools, hosts Central Decatur in the regular season finale at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.

youngest. Harper said Monday he won’t participate in the Home Run Derby because his father isn’t available to pitch to him following shoulder surgery.

There are 16 All-Stars born outside the 50 states, including six Venezuelans, five Dominicans, three Cubans, one Canadian and one Puerto Rican.

AL starting pitchers include Seattle’s Felix Hernandez, Detroit’s David Price, Chicago’s Chris Sale, Houston’s Dallas Keuchel, Oakland’s Sonny Gray and Tampa Bay’s Chris Archer. Among the NL starting pitchers are Washington’s Max Scherzer, San Francisco’s Madison Bumgarner, the Dodgers’ Zack Greinke, the Mets’ Jacob deGrom, Pittsburgh’s Gerrit Cole and Atlanta’s Shelby Miller.

Joining Moustakas on the ballot for the AL’s final spot are Boston shortstop Xander Bogaerts, Detroit outfielder Yoenis Cespedes, Minnesota second baseman Brian Dozier and Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner. The NL ballot includes pitchers Johnny Cueto of Cincinnati, Jeurys Familia of the Mets, Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers and Carlos Martinez of the Cardinals along with Colorado shortstop Troy Tulowitzki.

Continued from Page 1B Newton (15-9) learned the pairings for the Class 4A playoffs just before its game Tuesday. The Cardinals will host Des Moines Hoover (1216), which is a CIML-Metro team along with Des Moines East, July 17.

“Connor pitched nine big innings for us and did a great job. Jordan came in at the end and threw strikes. Our defense did not make an error in the game. We made routine plays and got the win,” Brisel said.

The Scarlets put together three hits — two doubles and a single — to plate two runs in the third inning for a 2-0 lead.

Newton cut the margin in half in the fourth frame.

Senior Michael Barr began the fourth with a single to center field, and then Gholson reached on a fielder’s choice.

Mike McCormick, senior, singled followed by an RBI fielder’s choice by sophomore Brennen Dodd.

In the fifth, the Cardinals

produced two runs to gain the lead. Junior Drew Stout beat out a bunt for a base hit and Stanton reached on an error.

Newton had base runners at second and third and Stout scored the tying run on a passed ball.

Lee and Wood reached on back-to-back fielder’s choice plays. Wood swiped second and scored on a misplayed ground ball hit by Barr.

“We bunted the ball well today and moved runners when we needed to,” Brisel said. “We put the ball in play all game.”

A two-out walk proved to be a problem for Gholson and the Cardinals in the sixth.

Frank Sawhill doubled to center field to drive in the tying run for East.

After a scoreless seventh, the teams headed to extra innings.

Gholson pitched nine innings, allowing three runs on nine hits and two walks. Gholson struck out six Scarlets.

Travis gave up two hits in his one inning of work.

McCormick went 3-for-4 with three base hits for the Cardinals. Wood had a single

and a double and Stout delivered two singles. Lee and Barr each had a single.

“We’re fine tuning things right now as we work down the stretch of the regular season. We’re extremely happy to have our playoff opener at home, but we’re taking one game at a time,” Brisel said.

“We still have some games to focus on in the regular season before then.”

Newton is on the road the rest of the regular season unless it can reschedule the Little Hawkeye Conference doubleheader at home against Norwalk, which was rained out Monday.

The Cardinals have a non-conference doubleheader at Saydel, Class 3A’s 11th-ranked team, Wednesday. They go to Dallas Center-Grimes Friday for a LHC doubleheader. Both doubleheaders begin at 5 p.m.

Newton’s junior varsity lost 11-0 to Des Moines East Tuesday.

Williams gets past Azarenka at Wimbledon LONDON (AP) — Even as Serena Williams piled up aces and groundstroke winners from all angles, even as she stormed through seven games in a row and 10 of the last 13 in yet another comeback, her Wimbledonquarterfinal against Victoria Azarenka never felt like a runaway.

That’s because Azarenka, a two-time major champion and former No. 1 in her own right, was playing spectacular tennis, too, nearly the equal of Williams

in every facet.

For when Williams finds her best game, she becomes unbeatable. And for her past 26 Grand Slam matches she is, indeed, unbeaten. Erasing an early deficit at Centre Court, Williams got past Azarenka 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 Tuesday with the help of 17 aces and a remarkable ratio of 46 winners to 12 unforced errors.

In Thursday’s semifinals, No. 1 Williams faces No. 4 Maria Sharapova, who beat unseeded American CoCo Vandeweghe

6-3, 6-7 (3), 6-2.

The other semifinal is No. 13 Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland against No. 20 Garbine Muguruza of Spain.

The men’s quarterfinals are Wednesday: Novak Djokovic vs. Marin Cilic, Roger Federer vs. Gilles Simon, Andy Murray vs. Vasek Pospisil, and Stan Wawrinka vs. Richard Gasquet.

Djokovic finished his 6-7 (6), 6-7 (6), 6-1, 6-4, 7-5 fourthround victory over Kevin Anderson on Tuesday.

Mercury’s entrance into protective Cancer may bring back that scenario that makes your blood boil to think about.

You’d love to let them know how you really feel, though expressing yourself may not help in the current climate. If holding yourself back is too hard, concentrate on holding only one small part of you.

Your tongue.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (JULY 8). You’ll perform heroic feats on a daily basis. Just make sure some of these daring moves benefit you, too! August shows you suddenly wanting something different and you’ll waste no time in moving in your

new direction. An assertive approach to your personal life will produce lifestyle improvements. Sagittarius and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 11, 29, 14 and 45.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Some of the people in your group seem to derive great glee from tearing down the opposing or oppressing group. It would be toxic to dwell there.

The sunshine of social life is kindness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Your psychic feelers are out there and with remarkable accuracy. If it could be, you’ll feel that it’s possible. And if it

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Your friends and fans make an excellent buffer to the harsher realities of life. However, they can also make you soft.

The harsher realities are the dumbbells to your weightlifting goals.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

It’s in our animal nature to test things. Testing is the nature of survival. You do it without realizing it today, giving little pushes to your physical and emotional environment in order to better understand the limitations.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Bottom line: You don’t have

403 West 4th St. North, Newton, IA. enough support. Your support team is either too few in members or is falling down on the job. Get more people on your side, even if you have to pay them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Your need to work is as strong as it is basic, equal with the need for food, clothing, shelter and love. Dive in and get it done, but don’t turn it all in yet. Save it to review and refine tomorrow.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You’ve been a frequent guest in the homes and parties of friends and acquaintances.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The best opportunities are the ones that don’t cost anyone too much. The giver only gives as much as he or she has to lose and the taker only takes as much as feels comfortable.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s a lot easier to have a positive attitude when you’re actually happy. You might not wake up that way, but right away you’ll start the cycle by doing the things that make you smile.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Even though appearances only represent the tip of the iceberg to you (i.e., the 20 percent of the iceberg one can actually see because the other 80 percent is below the water)

you still benefit from dressing the part.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You’ve taken the first steps toward change. The new behavior must be repeated dozens and hundreds of times. With a little more consistency you really can become the person you always wanted to be.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

The conservative business tactic is to get it in writing, although “writing” doesn’t make a person stick to the agreement. Perhaps an eye-to-eye handshake is still the best close to a deal.
